Java Install On C3100 - Noob Alert
« on: January 11, 2006, 11:15:00 pm »
I recently acquired  a SL-C3100 (standard Sharp ROM with the Tetsu Kernel update installed) and despite having installed Jeode (jeode_1.10.7_arm.ipk), I can not get java apps to run. The icon changes to "busy" and I see the hourglass icon, but that soon stops. Nothing else happens.
I have also tried blackdown-jdk_1.3.1_arm.ipk with similar results.
Any suggestions for this noobie (to Linux as well as Zaurii) how to diagnose and solve this?

it really depends on what type of java application you are trying to run, ie j2me for PDAs such as jeode or personal profile, j2me for mobile phones such as midp, or j2se such as blackdown
depending on which jvm you have and also whether the application you are trying to run is supported by the jvm you have you also need to provide the correct arguments to launch your application with the appropriate jvm.

have a look at [a href=\"http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/custom.html#java]http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/custom.html#java[/url] for more details.

Thanks Meanie. I must say, discovering your website was one of the reasons I bought a Z in the first place. So it's all your fault!
As mentioned, I installed "jeode_1.10.7_arm.ipk" with the intention of using "Spoken" text-to-speech software. But I can not even get the Jeode demo programs to run (jeode-demos_1.10.6_arm.ipk). Do these programs need any switches to run?
I will continue to work through your Customisations page.
Cheers

Circumvented my problem by flashing to Cacko 1.23 ROM. Jeode installed and java apps run without a problem. Never did find out what my problem was under the stock Sharp ROM

Does this mean that Cacko comes with Java or that you found it somewhere in an ipk
format and added it?

If the latter can you share the URL, please?

I would like to load jsword and thingamablog and need Java for them.

Thanks!  doc
