Rc14 C-1000 - No Space Left On Device
« on: August 10, 2005, 03:21:05 pm »
Does anybody have any recommendations in order to free up some space on a C1000?  I have the RC14 and I have only installed gaim and gimp (I think I started off with 14 MB after to flash).  

When I installed gimp it brought my available space left to 0.  My wireless card is not working anymore (Ambicom CF).

I sent the command 'cardctl scheme "Wireless-Name" ' and it could not set the scheme.  '.:  No space left on device'.  I tried to uninstall gaim but it did not work with 'ipkg remove gaim'.  Any ideas or suggestions to "free" up some space.  The free command says I have 15660 free.   Can I transfer some programs to an SD card or move to another location in the memory?

Hi,

I installed everything on /mnt/user and everything works:
Gimp(though I have a crash while opening a file), gnumeric, kde-pim 2.0.14, Treeline, Rox, gpe-edit, mplayer, python, ...
If it matters I copied the pdaxrom feed on my CF card and install everything from it
SL-C1000 from PriceJapan(cheap and very fast shipping) with EA-70 power adapter, iRiver USB Host cable, PDAIR case, pentopia stylus, ultra clear screen-protector from shop.brando.com.hk only $3 for shipping worldwide
4GB Hitachi Microdrive, 1GB Kingston Elite Pro CF, 4GB Transcend 150x SD, Symbol Spectrum 4137 CF WiFi(low power)
PdaXrom pdaxii13 5.4.9 updated with Kkazakov13's feed. I owned a SL-6000L before

Thanks, I'll do that in the future.  

Do you know how to remove a package directly in the Package Manager?  I think I am missing something (probably simple).  

I tried to remove gimp so I can reinstall on the cf but it says that it can not find it on the cf?  I assume when I hit the 'sprocket' button on the gui and the 'install on /0KB' is selected that I am trying to remove the package from the memory.  I tried the ipkg remove gimp but it did not work.

To remove a package,
- I check the desired package in the installed list
- click on the 3rd Icon from the up-left corner
- it asks me OK or Cancel ?
- click OK
- look at the Log tab to see what happens and usually it works

BUT it seems that it doesn't remove everything as I don't recover a lot of free space after removing big packages.

I never tried with Gaim and never installed to CF/SD

I am just starting using PdaXrom so I am not an expert.

Thanks.  That is what I have been doing.  Maybe there is an issue with removing gimp from the z.  I'll keep on trying and update with my success.  

I appreciate all the help as I am a pdaXrom novice.  But, I really do like the rom even though there are a few minor quirks which will eventually get figured out.
