Rom Confusion

Can anyone tell me where libstdc++.so.6 should be in OZ/Opie? xmms and konqueror are both saying that they can't find it ...

It should be in /media/cf/usr/lib and symlinked to /usr/lib in your install to CF-card.

In terminal do:
ipkg-link mount /media/cf

or
ipkg-link mount /media/cf/packages

if your using a packages directory in ipkg.conf?

That should link everything for your CF-card install.

word Greg2!!!

That seemed to do the trick. Everything seems to be running now. Some of the windows seem to be going off the edge of the screen, but I think I can live with that.

One last question (ok probably not, but it will be the last for now ....). OpieMail gives an error when I try to send an e-mail from it ... 'error sending queued mail - b'. I haven't yet searched for this on the forums, so maybe someting will turn up.

Here are my OZ quick installation and bringup notes for the somewhat lazy.


When I first picked up a 5500 a few weeks ago I went through the following steps:

Installed the latest OZ-gpe since I wanted X, not qpe.
Encountered instability - perhaps due to operator error.

Installed the latest OZ-OPIE.
Found the Cancel button bug.
Couldn't get the WCF12 up immediately.

Installed Hentges' latest OPIE, skipping cardfs (for the too-big card-found-dialog bug).
Copied cardfs.bin from Win2k onto FAT SD then to 5500 memory.
Formatted SD as ext2 and moved cardfs.bin back to SD.
Installed cardfs from the cmd line.
Manually moved /home, /opt and /etc to SD (no need to remove the card) then sym-linked /media/card/home to /home, etc.
Brought up WCF12 with no issues.
Browsed the unstable OZ feeds from a desktop machine and scripted the:

ipkg install -d sd <stuff>
ipkg-link add <stuff>

for the packages I wanted.
Tried the OPIE PIM and mail and was vaguely unhappy with it so I installed KDEPIM 2.2 (to have the same version as the memory-stick).
Copied the mem-stick kapi/kopi to a usb drive and synced it to the 5500 with no issues (from Win2k box).
SFTPd from FileZilla with no issues except adding password to root.
ssh'd from cygwin with no issues.


I spent no more than ten minutes on each of the first two ROMs above before trying something else. What took the longest in Hentges' was deciding to always have the SD mounted.

Now I have what I wanted from the 5500: a relatively stable PIM/mail system that I can do some c, octave and perl work on. Since mail is IMAP and kapi and kopi stay synced to my desktop, all I have to do is zip my source code and pwmpi.data (ok, and wellenreiter dumps) and send it to gmail every day. That way I can try 3.5.4 gpe after pre with only a quick update to my-ipkg-install.sh.

Getting closer .... closer all the time.

I had the OZ/Opie syncing with Kontact (Kaddressbook, korganizer) yesterday. Now with the hentges software. I can't seem to get it to sync. Frustrating ...

I would actually prefer that it sync with Evolution, which is what I am attempting now using Multisync. Question: the password that I specify, is it the same password that I use when ssh'ing into the Z?

[Meaulnes]

Could anyone tell me if there is a mail client for OZ/Opie that work with KAPI?

Thanks
