I cant wait to try gpe-soundbite, i have been waiting for a voice recorder on my 6000.  Thanks everyone for the work you are doing.  This type of stuff is the best part of OSS.

Thanks again

If your looking for someone to help test your packages before you put thim up on contrib i would be happy to do so and submit bug reports.  Just send me a PM if you like.

Hi,

I have installed many of the GPE apps and none of them load. It looks like it will run up but nothing accually starts.
I must be missing a main set of files for pdaX.
If there is something general that I am missing that someone could point out that would be great. I don't mine being a tester for any of these apps but I am new to the zaurus. One other app that I am looking for is a gas mileage logger. I noticed a mileage file at the beginning of this string but I don't see the file any longer.


Thanks

if you run them from the command line what errors do you get?

Hi all guys, sorry for being late again, i' ve got a lot of work for my shop this week.
These Holidays i have time to do some enhancement.
I thought a solution for AT problem, reading in deep the GPE-Calendar and libschedule stuff.
This is what i'm going to try:
1) Deleting all the code lines that makes Calendar wait for the AT output.
2) Make the Events UID advance with the SQLITE AUTOINCREMENT Values.
3) Deleting the at -c code based function that doesn' t make sense as it can' t check the at output.
4) Implement a function that checks all the files in the /var/spool/at dir and delete the file containing the #!# event_uid string directly.
As this string is generated basing on the libevent, if libevent works it has to work too.
As i'm finished i will post the ipk and rpms in a place where you can get for testing, before to put in the contrib dir.
Thanks all for your help.
BYEZ!

I get " error while loading shared libraries: libgpewidget.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

when I checked, libgpewidget is installed alone with all the files needed.
It must be in the wrong place or the wrong version.
what do you think?

You must install the new cvs ver. as all the new cvs packages are based on it.
Please redo the all ipks installation with the new cvs packages, to be sure that all ipks are new.

Ok guys, my thoughts were right.
I compiled the new RPMS packages based on the fresh CVS.
I look into code and see that even-db.c of libvevent and vevent.c from libgpevtype where changed.
Now the NEW packages works, but there' s a problem with the creation of the event_new table.
So gpe-calendar goes down with creation of a new database.
And you need to create the table yourself with sqlite commands to make it work.
Logically it works stable with an existent DB.
A new feature is a green line that seeks your current time displaying the hours you need in day view, cool!
OK, as the event library is being changed in cvs day by day, i think we have to wait until it becomes stable without errors.
As i see now, the event generated by libschedule in the at job creation has the right number.
Id Es: #!# ID Event_Number.
ID is the right reference.
But libschedule doesn' t yet delete the right at job.
So before doing any changement i have to be sure libevent works right.
The last changement in CVS was about 13/04/06
I compiled all the new packages today for FC4.
Before compiling it for the Zauri, i have to be sure they work at all.
As gpe-calendar is based on libgpevtype, libgpepimc, libeventdb, libschedule.
Any changement in calendar reflects logically in the libraries. So i have to check the CVS for all the libs and compiled as well.
GPE-Announce seems to be stopped in devel.
So i made the Volume changements and the Buzzer deletion as well.
Logically the Snooze problem still remains as it's bound to libschedule, but now Announce seeks the configuration in the .gpe dir and sounds for 30 sec until the 80% of Volume is reached, instead of 20 sec at 100% noising for the loudness.
I will compile it again for the Zauri too, to make it possibly use with AT cmds directly.
Please see if the changements reflect your taste and tell me if you like them.
OK, the new packages to test will be on a new section of my contrib.
Any new CVS changements will be reflected in new packages there as well.
Until they don' t become usable and stable i will not post them on my contrib.
Only new gpe-announce will be as functional in my contrib.
Ok we only have to wait for new fixes on CVS server now.
I will try to communicate with the GPE guys to see what their intenctions will be.
BYEZ!!!!

I have checked and I am running all the new versions. However I noticed that I have 2 versions of the ...widget. the 2005 version from the main pdax feed.  If I uninstall both versions and then try to install only the new version it installs the old version from the other feed.  I will remove the other feed from the package manager however when I put it back for other things I am afraid it will install it again at a later date.
what is the norm here?

thanks again.

Right, the libgpewidget in the normal Feed and the one in mine are different.
As mine are the freshest and all my packages are based on that.
Think that mine are packaged in a different way too, so install all in contrib and it will be all right.
BYEZ!

@Andmann: I vaguely recall having this same problem - I removed both versions and installed only the newer one. I haven't seen any issues with this yet...

@Xromer: your at solution seems to be logical - it should work with a fully functional version, or with a limited one. Two things to watch out for:
1) The original pdaXrom at script stuck the 'rm -f $0' at the end of the file with no newline (it ended up stuck on the ID line) - you may want to add a newline to this.
2) Will your solution fix the issue with the gpe-calendar command re-scheduling the alarm for a second time? I am hoping it will due to the ID number...

I'll try out the newest packages as soon as possible - thanks for all the work.

Well:
1) The original is the (Ipaq made)' s one, as Familiar has not a real at daemon, the at file it' s called to autodelete itself after command execution.
2) The problem of re-scheduling it' s a call to schedule_set_alarm more than one time as a refresh of view. I' m looking at the event_ui.c of gpe-calendar.
But we are always there, i mean until the libeventdb will not be stabilized for a while.

Hi,

I have removed the older file and the apps started up.
I have noticed though that when I shutdown and restart the system I have tp un-install the libschedule or sqlite and reinstall it to get at least one of the the apps  going again, most of the time.

Thanks again.

That's really strange - which version of sqlite do you have? I think that was another with an older version in the official feed.

Please Andmann notes:
Install only the packages in my feeds for 2 reasons.
1) The packages in the PdaXrom main Feed are compiled on the sqlite3 support, the other on mine are with sqlite 2 support as i had problems doing that for the sqlite3.
The reason is that the Main Feed is built with the PdaXrom Builder directly and i use the SDK Devel.
2) As i use the SDK Devel, the packaging it' s completely different and it will make problems with dependencies.

So check only gpe packages from my feed and be sure that you installed Sqlite from there .
You can keep the Sqlite3 from the main Feed as the versions are different and the files to install too.
With my packages completely installed, i had never problems like yours but only the other in my first post.
So check again your installation and look if the 2 conditions on the top are satisfied.
That' s all you have to do.
BYEZ!

Hi,

for some reason everything is working well now. I didn't do anything it's like it just needed to have those 2 reinstalled a few times.
I have installed the atd now so I can start to play with that.

thanks agian.
