Hentges Rom 3.5.4.1 T1 Final Release Available

Maybe it's just me but i noticed a few things with hentges on akita (both opie and gpe)

opie:
- sound doesn't work
- suspend bug is present when switching from menu or with the on/off button
- sd card doesn't get mounted or viewed, totally missing.
- cf cards that worked before (cf bluetooth and dlink wifi) doesn't get recognised but cf eth billionton works

gpe:
- suspend bug still present
- sound works ok
- sd not detected as in opie
- cf cards as in opie

hope this helps

Missing sound in Opie is an Opie bug. It works sometimes, usually it doesn't.
I have yet to see a single suspend / resume freeze, there is no such bug and is likely caused by a driver for some of your additional hardware.

SD cards are auto-mounted just fine, even with multiple partitions. If you've changed the partitioning of your card you'll have to edit /etc/fstab to make it mount in /media/card, otherwise it will be mounted in /media/$PARTITION by the auto-mounter.

I just noticed this post...Been spending some quality time with my new bike for the last couple of weeks.

Congrats, Coredump! Great job.

I downloaded the collie tree, but was wondering before I flash...The two items from my last attempt at 3.5.4.1 were the suspend problem (which still seems to be around, at least in limited quantities), and the bash problem with only executing one command then hanging.

Has the bash problem been fixed?

Thanks,

There were no changes to bash recently, so I don't think so

Excellent release, Coredump. A few observations if I might...

1) Bash still had the same problem, executing one command then not returning the command prompt. I installed the bash from the 3.5.3 feeds (which was also 3.0r4), and it works fine.

2) One of the things I do post install is to rearrange the tabs using opie-tabmanager. This package no longer appears in the 3.5.4 or 3.5.4.1 feeds. Was this functionality combined into another package? I have the one from the 3.5.3 feed, but I thought I would ask before installing old packages.

Other than that, everything looks good. The suspend thing is a known issue thats been beat to death...Again, thanks to Coredump and all of the OZ developers for a job well done.

I decided to install the basic version of opie (hentges 3.5.4.1) without the added bundle of programs.

This enable me just to install what I wanted, in fact I even removed about 25 packages from this basic version.

All is well and it is fast.

I have now got my first problem!

I cannot get a desktop entry for prboom-opie.

I have a prboom.desktop in /opt/QtPalmtop/apps/Games/, I have an icon in /opt/QtPalmtop/pics/, I have a link to prboom.sh in /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/.

prboom works from the command line.

Any suggestions?

Have you clicked the reload icons (or similar) button on the Settings tab?

Hi Si, thanks for the quick reply.

That was one of the programs that I removed, I have now re-installed it, but to no effect. The prboom icon is still AWOL.

I just looked at the earlier posts stating that a root file system is the way to go. I agree. Installing packages is a real pain and the machine loses some of the links, especially on the card file system installation.

As a result, I have attempted numerous times to install using both the whole rfs.bin files (both opie and gpe) and the tarballs. The only success I have had consistently is the gpe tarball. The  gpe loop-image comes up to a black screen. I cannot even access the opie loop-file (the thing respawns too fast). Of the tarballs, gpe installs, but opie cannot get bast the media gag screen. While I like gpe

So, I am am back to the cfs for a while. I really hope that the rough edges for rfs installs can be ironed out. The thought of installing without ipkg-link sounds good.

As for the person with a PrBoom issue, the .desktop file should be in /opt/QtPalmtop/apps/Games

As you can see that is where I had put the .desktop file, but I found an easier way to deal with it.

I decided to give my Z to my daughter, and she wouldn't like doom, so I took it off.

Many thanks for the reply though.

oops, sorry 'bout that  

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I think that snes9x is broken... the dialog pops up, i can select a file, then it spits out 'snes9x: command not found".  Do i need to install the actual emulator seperately? i would think it would be included in the wrapper  

Oh, and any way to remove the 'ding' when suspending/resuming?
