1.1.0beta1 Is Out!
« Reply #105 on: January 27, 2006, 08:45:41 pm »
Does anyone know whether the kernel for the C-1000 & C-3100 has been significantly changed from RC12 to Beta 1.10? I'm also assuming that since the c-1000 kernel is made from C-3100 sources they are the same.

Evidently, there are some patches required to get the Orinico drivers working properly for the Socket WiFi cards in Kismet. They work fine for connecting to a network, but seem to not be able go into monitor mode. I've posted this bug and in the mean time have tried using a C-1000 RC12 kernel that was patched by cjb http://www.neonbox.org/zaurus/index.html Unfortunately, it didn't work. My C-3100 would boot. Of course, I may have screwed up while moving the C-1000 kernel from the folder in tools.tar to the C-3100 folder, but the flash seem to go without error. Before I backup everything and try again I was hoping someone with more knowledge than I could weigh in on the issue.

Cheers,

Jerry

Ok,
     Got pdaxrom working on my 6k, wifi works, startx worked, mostly all was good.  Then I ran ipkg update and ipkg upgrade, and now I can't start x.  startx results in the following message:
"Imageon_iniScreen()
:Bad file descriptor

Fatal server error:
no screens found

XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0" after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining"

If someone can point me in the right direction on that (where to find logfiles, what file got tweaked, etc) I would be much obliged.  I tried a search, but probably didn't use the right terms, so if there is a thread somewhere, just point me in that direction with a "Silly Newbie" type comment.

Also, as an FYI, ipkg upgrade gets severly hosed when it sees that wget is outdated, since it first uninstalls wget, and then tries to wget the updated package.  That one was an easy fix, just d/l'd a copy of the updated wget to a CF card from my PC and installed off that, but still, its a kinda silly bug.

Hi,

Changelog ?

Between rc12 and beta1 only minimum packages changed.

Is posible only:

edit /etc/ipkg.conf
ipkg update
ipkg upgrade ?

Thx.

you need to update /etc/ipkg.conf
placing first http://mail.pdaxrom.org/1.1.0beta1/Zaurus-SL6000/
then http://mail.pdaxrom.org/1.1.0beta1/Zaurus-7x0-860/

you don't need to upgrade as the feed changes only with a new release.

Now, you probably installed X with the driver for ati (760 etc..)
The easier way to fix this is probaly to reflash

I still have a problem where my Z goes to a blank white screen when it is left idle for a while. How do I get rid of this?

The worst part is this, if the Z suspends while this white screen is up, the Z goes to "sleep" such that I can't use it without "waking it up," but the screen does not turn off.

That is right, my Z is suspended with a white screen showing and the backlight on. The LED's even go off, just not the screen.

Needless to say, this doesn't do much for my batter life.

Thanks to Laze and pdaXrom team for this great ROM!

Was so pleased that I made my second PayPal donation to this project!

Just installed it to my 3100 last night and so far works great!

My Ambicom WiFi card and my Socket 10/100 Ethernet card both work.

Only issue I've had is shutting down my Z...exited from pdaXrom, then did 'shutdown' from command line, then tried to turn off Z with 'On/Off' switch, but nothing happens. Doesn't turn off.

Anyone have this problem?

Anything I can do about it besides removing battery?

Thanks,

Mark

did you try running poweroff or halt?

somehow the keys in the console are screwy , at least they are on my C3000.

btw archimark, did flashing pdaxrom on your c3100 do anything to your microdrive? are all the files on hdd3 still the same?

Hi Meanie,

Well, I just checked as follows:

#df
......
/dev/hda1 ....../mnt/ide
/dev/hda2 ....../mnt/ide2
/dev/hda3 ....../mnt/ide3

#cd /mnt/ide3
#ls
Documents   dict2    opt    usr
debroot        etc      pocketworkstation  
dict1            home   swapfile

So it appears that it didn't change hdd3 content....

No, I ended up recompiling the kernel without the Hermes drivers and using newer drivers compiled seperately. See [a href=\"http://mail.pdaxrom.org/contrib/docs/kernel-compile-3100.html]http://mail.pdaxrom.org/contrib/docs/kerne...mpile-3100.html[/url]

Don't tell me it would have been simplier to use the hostap drivers

I don't know, but i think it would be simplier to switch to hostap drivers to make kismet works. check the following links

Not a bug in beta1 (which seems great so far as usual) but an older ipk which no longer works.

I really like nedit, particularly on pdaxrom and have it configured with syntax highlighting etc just how I want it. The nedit ipk from the stable feed has worked with every rc but doesn't seem to work any more with beta1.

I'm downloading the latest stable source for nedit to compile myself but was wondering if it might be possible to have it included in the release feed in future.

Many thanks for another great release. As soon as I can afford to, I will contribute some more $.
