3.5.4.2-rc2 Released

[leland]

rc2 is out, and the lousy berlioz server is down, so no wiki  

I installed the bootstrap image on my tosa, but the console was in all caps, and I couldn't get usbd0 to operate.

So, I installed the gpe-image, had to login, but there is no startx command.

Now off to try opie

to operate.

And you'll never will, since that doesn't exist in 2.6, try usb0 instead (after checking wether g_ether is loaded)

So, I installed the gpe-image, had to login, but there is no startx command

Correct, X is started automagically by gpe-dm

usbctl is giving me a "No such file or directory error" when I send it paramaters, such as status 0.
if I just enter /sbin/usbctl it returns a help line.

usbctl has no usage under 2.6 kernel - I will remove it in rc3

Poodle is better than RC1

No horrible sound glitches on startup, although I've yet to try and make it play sounds.

Suspend/Resume still doesn't work in  OZ/GPE. . Did anyone ever file a bugreport in the end? If not, how do I? ^^

Either the record/Play memo programs are busted, or there's no sound. . .

Fiddled around in Alsamixer. . . No luck.

Well, It's the end of summer and I need my Z back, So I'm off back to Sharprom, but keep it up. . I'll see if i can catch up with OZ again a few releases onward. ^^

just flashed my 6000L to opie/oz/3.5.4.2-rc2  and it's really pretty good (if only my Z were more reliable, sigh)... the default size of the icons is so much better than previous rc, and it seems, well, just smoother especially compared to Sharp  & Sharp-derived roms.

I still get the faint orange trails/lines when an image moves across the screen, but that's no disaster.

Kudos to OZ people for taking care of us 6000L users!

Has anyone else tried this with bluetooth CF card on a 6000? Whilst "hciconfig -a" shows a working device, and all the usual daemons running, I can't actually DO anything:

* hcitool scan - reports nothing found
* scanning from another box doesn't discover the zaurus
* l2ping from another box won't find the zaurus if I use the mac address of the Z

I can suspend/eject/resume the card exactly as expected, so it's very weird, it's as if the radio in the CF card has been turned off and it's not transmitting or receiving RF.

after investigation I've found that it will work, but it's very fussy about booting up the Z with the cf card in it... my cf bt card config is set to remain in suspend on insertion. So, I reset/boot Z without CF BT card, when it's up, insert the card, resume it, and then "hciconfig -a" will report the device name (whereas before it would fail and report it couldn't connect to the service)... and then "hcitool scan" will find things.

I didn't find /etc/init.d/bluetooth stop & start solved the problem; I also tried turning off authentication and encryption in hcid.conf.

Maybe an OZ/Opie developer with a 6000 can try and reproduce?
