I can understand that, however we won't even start working on it until Sharp releases the kernel sources. If you are the legit owner of a C3100, please pester them to do that asap.

Any hints on how to do just that?
I got my C3100 the other day and I'm just keen on OZ as original poster.

You could try mailing them or calling. Perhaps they have email addresses or phone numbers on the written statement about GPL conformance.

I have an C3100, and they distributed the kernel sources on the CDrom.   AFIK, I can post them according to the rules of the GPL (redistribution).

They were on the CDs??? Bummer, then people should've uploaded them months ago.

Anyway, I'm currently compiling something that's supposed to be pretty much OpenZaurus 3.5.4 for a Borzoi and will put it up to http://www.Vanille.de/temp/borzoi

I'd appreciate feedback.

I have successfully installed the Borzoi on my C3100 and its under heavy testing.

I only noticed few points:

1. on the booting process, it show some hard disk inode error.
2. the font in the console missed up, hardly see a word.
3. the power on/off button doesn't work

I'll dig futher.

This is pretty normal.

Try using 'apm -s' in the meantime from the command line (assuming you can see what you're typing), or if it's an opie-image there's a suspend entry on the 'start menu'.

The standard recommendations for all clamshell models apply.
Be sure to rm $HOME/Settings/*.conf before flashing Opie, so you get the new default values copied into the .conf files.

I didn't clean up my hd, it was used for Sharprom,QT.

So do I need to reformat it before I install OZ?

what is the partition requirement and size for each partition?

No need to reformat, I just said you should rm $HOME/Settings/*.conf - nothing more. Oz always works with the standard SharpROM partitioning, we don't support partitioning hacks.

I did what you told, rm $HOME/Settings/*.conf and then re install OZ.

but the result is the same. problems:

1. fonts within terminal console missed up, no line break, spacing is like tab
2. keys are missing, I can't use CAP letters, SHIFT+keys will not work, "`" is missing.

I just wonder, if I use the updater.sh from Borzoi and install OZ 3.5.3 kernel instead will work?? considering a try?

1. odd, try to open console -> edit profile -> default -> and choose a monotype font.
2. oops, my fault. initscripts is missing the keymap support. I've uploaded a better initscript to the site - that should get the keys working.

Thanks Mickeyl!

there are only two fonts(one normal, and one mono) available for this kernel.  Is it possible for you to add more to the OZ or there is a way I can add them? because I want to use the fonts from sharprom.

Also, is this kernel Borzoi built with everything? if not can I have a request to have it built with everything?


I will dig more into Borzoi, let you know when I find new stuff.

as a newb, could someone post a link to the install instructions for bringing OpenZaurus up on my SL-C3100?  I'd like to load it today, test, and report results.
