Good File Browser- Konqueror (compiling), Or?
« on: January 29, 2006, 09:02:48 pm »
I really like the Zaurus c3100 (and the cacko ROM) but I am not a big fan of the default file browser at all.

Anyone know of any good file browsers to stick on the Zaurus?  Maybe it will help me avoid the following pain I will describe next?

I am a fan of konqueror myself.  I would like to stick konqueror-embedded on the Zaurus.  Unfortunately, I have yet to find konqueror that is in a *.ipk format.  All I have found are tar.bz2 releases which one has to compile.

I have the konqueror3-embedded-0.2.20060121 package I am trying to compile.  Using './configure --enable-qtopia' on the zaurus, I keep getting a 'check for kde-config... not found' error.  I have the kmicrolibs on my Zaurus...so I am not sure what I need to do to solve this problem?

So next, I tried to cross compile konqueror on my Linux PC.  I used the following options with configure:

[freyguy@localhost konqueror3-embedded-0.2-20060121]$ configure --target=xscale --build=xscale --enable-static --enable-qtopia --enable-printing

After typing 'make' things seemed to be going well until:

make[6]: Entering directory `/home/freyguy/Desktop/zaurus download packages/konqueror3-embedded-0.2-20060121/konq-embed/kdesrc/kdecore'
/bin/sh ../../../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=link g++  -Wno-long-long -Wundef -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -O2 -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST    -o libkdecore.la   kurl.lo krfcdate.lo ksock.lo kentities.lo kstandarddirs.lo ktempfile.lo ksavefile.lo kmdcodec.lo ksockaddr.lo netsupp.lo kextsock.lo kbufferedio.lo kmultipledrag.lo kasyncio.lo kshell.lo kqiodevicegzip_p.lo ../../dropin/libdropin.la network/libkdecorenetwork.la
ar: /home/freyguy/Desktop/zaurus: No such file or directory
make[6]: *** [libkdecore.la] Error 9

Anybody know why ar cares about a 'zaurus' directory above my working directory:

/home/freyguy/Desktop/zaurus download packages/konqueror3-embedded-0.2-20060121

The only place I can find konqueror_snapshot_20020311_arm.ipk is
[a href=\"http://www.linuxdojo.net/zaurus/feed/]http://www.linuxdojo.net/zaurus/feed/[/url]

which I get an error that says I do not have permission to enter the site

I found a link for it at:
[a href=\"http://hpcgi2.nifty.com/taku2001/zau/texplorerqt/top_en.cgi]http://hpcgi2.nifty.com/taku2001/zau/texplorerqt/top_en.cgi[/url]

has version 1.76 which I guess is the latest version.

I just installed it.  I get those squares on my zaurus, which I guess is due because my zaurus machine is missing the capability to display that appropriate character (I guess I do not have the right font or character setting somewhere).

BUT, besides that, looks promising!  Thanks for the software tip!

I hope anyone else with ideas on file manager/browser solutions continue to chime in...it would be interesting to here what else is out there.

Have you tried selecting English language form the menu?
