Congradulations!!! Already downloaded . One thing I noticed (already? I know), is that the mplayer ipk is in the x11 feed. Shouldn't that be in base?

Thanks for all the hard work.
(off to flashing...)

I can't get my Zaurus SL5500 working with new 3.5.4.

I have tried
gpe-image-3.5.4-collie.initrd.bin
zImage-64-0

but after leds light off and I performed full reset no orange led (it was still connected to adaptor) and after batery compartment lid has been added it didn't boot.

MD5 of files was ok, so I tried it one more times and now display turned on, logo was on them, but after 15min nothing other has happend.

Then I have tried also zImage-58-6 with same result (no live). Problem is that now i have problems to flash back to cacko.

Yesterday I have performed 2 flashing without any problem.

Can I take the occassion to ask if anyone would explain what the differences between OpenZaurus and pdaXrom are?

I've seen the feed features an X11 section and you use GPE, so is it basically like pdaXrom in the sense that you run X apps with no prob?

If so what is the benefit? A 2.6 kernel? Or is there more? Does it have floating point? If not, is it slower than pdaXrom?

I've searched for an introductory FAQ on OpenZ and perhaps a comparison between OZ and pdaXrom but haven't seen any. Are there any users who've used both and could compare?

OK, so sorry - it looks that this secondhand CF card begining to be little bit volatile. md5 after flashing is diffrent from beginning. Problem is that I have 5 CF card but only this one is usable (sorry - were usable) for flashing.  

Do anyone have good experience with some new type of CF cards which I can still buy new for flashing?

On clamshells you get a 2.6 kernel, softfloat libraries, a possibility to use altboot and kexex, and choice of different environments.
The biggest difference is that on OZ 'ipkg install <something>' just works, you don't have to spend days to find out what dependencies that package needs. And having access to over 12 thousand ipkgs in the 3.5.4 feeds can't hurt either

I tried the enlightment c7x0 experimental image, and after reboot I just get a login prompt.

How do I start E17?

I noticed that:
1) even when I login using the root account, there's some timeout (abou 1 min or so) that takes me out of the session and prompt for login again
2) once logged, the screen does not scroll, so once the cursor is at the bottom, I had to type clear everytime.


I'm now trying the gpe image ....

First impressions:

-Suspend/resume works perfectly! :-)
-Liked the new GPE touches (information balloons etc.)
-Package manager has feeds correctly preconfigured
-Alt-boot is a great idea
-I think it's a little faster compared to the RC

I just installed it, so that's it for now... More later.

Great now I just have to wait for spitz (sl-3000) BTW Hrw I am jumping through all the hoops to get a moneybookers account for the sole reason to donate money to you. Paypal may not be the best but it was easier to give Mickey money since I already had paypal. You guys keep up the great work I hope to be installing the 2.6 kernel on my lil hack machine soon.

Yeah, I also like the look and feel of GPE. Looks very nice.

Even though, on my c750 I still notice that screen flickering sometimes .... any hints to solve it?
