Hentges Rom 3.5.4.1 T1 Final Release Available

[CoreDump]

Someone should just write a script

ipkg -d sd install $1.ipk
ipkg-link add $1
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=132468\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

I thought the same thing a while back, but then realized that if $1 required any dependencies they wouldn't get linked until someone did it manually or ipkg-link mount /media/card/packages was run.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=132547\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

hmmm .... good point!  ... maybe I should go look at the ipkg code altogether ... afterall, it should be a matter of iterating through the files that are installed, and ipkg-linking them if they are on external media.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=132728\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

That's probably not worth the trouble. Collies / Poodles future lies in root-on-SD, not root-on-flash + ipkg-link.

Now that I finally have a stable release out, I can work on the more intrusive changes I were planning to implement for some time now. This is one of them.

And if I understood HRW correctly, he is looking forward for something like this for low-flash devices as well (OIOW: OZ is likely to move to root-on-SD as well eventually)

That's a good point there! You are right. Root-on-SD would solve the space constraint without complications with the ipkg-linking issues.

So how about Akita with its 128mb ram. Would it be in that direction too? Does it mean we can have 128mb of RAM and root-on-SD as storage? That would be neat! ... hmmm ... the altboot current does that right?

Akita has 64Mb RAM and 128 onboard flash.

That would be neat! ... hmmm ... the altboot current does that right?

That's basically what it was written for, yes.

Thanks a lot for your hard work!!!!!!!! ;-)

3) I can't find Alt anywhere, which is making application based menu navigation a bit tricky. Anyone know where this is?

Alt should be the japanese key to the left of "Ctrl" but by the looks of it that doesn't work in X. Will have a look.

Looks like you have found a X or matchbox bug here, there is no short-term solution at the moment.

Edit:
I've opened a new bug:

Hi. I flushed my sl-5500 with the henteges rom from http://oz.hentges.net/releases/3.5.4.1/T1/collie/. I used the three files from that url (cardfs zImage (64-0) and initrd) but I still having some problems with the kernel version on startup. Aditionaly I have some other problems in GPE. Seting the time, changes on the date and time don't look to make effect or behave erraticly. Login in to GPE, for some reason (maybe date and time isue) some users fail to start GPE from the login.

Which kernel should I use? Where can I get it? Is there any chance the kernel to fix the time isue?

Hi

The package aliens has not fully installed on my collie, there are a few png files but no executables.

Is this just on my machine or is it a bug?

The feed descriptions were also a little screwed up, I fixed these then found out that the feeds are dead, any idea what is going on with these as I cannot run ipkg update and add new packages automatically.

Froot exits with an error message, but works apart from that.

The rest appears stable and fast.

At this time I can't log with my user so I'm login with root. This worked fine up to now. Recently I can't launch any setings app or terminal  on GPE  (mini browser launches) nor log in through ssh. I can ping it, but when I try to connect it fails in the authentification of any user.  I  hard reseedt it but it made no difference.

17:40
Reflasing with the same rom combination... (clean gpe install)

Your kernel is 3 months older as the image (20060312 vs 20060621), is that intended?

No, I downloaded the three files from [a href=\"http://oz.hentges.net/releases/3.5.4.1/T1/collie/]http://oz.hentges.net/releases/3.5.4.1/T1/collie/[/url]

md5's match for the three of them with the one on the page!

[CoreDump]

For some reason the kernel is not flashed. You can trust me when I say that the Collie kernel on my site is not 3 month old  

Please make sure to rename it to "zImage", format the CF card and try again.

Those three files are on my CF!!

My error!... reflashing

Thanks!

EDIT: Renamed and flashed. It booted without warnings. Hope this solves the other two problems.

Thanks guys!!

 By the looks of it, the old suspend bug is back  
Suspending via menu works fine.
