[Fushnchupsh]

Anyone know if the spectrum24 socket wifi card (the old blue one) working?  I dropped beta 4 because this didn't work at all.

Thanks!!

excellent work!  I've noticed a few bugs (using C750):

- no cardctl for switching wifi schemes
- no audio!
- menu button does not work, have to use stylus
- some menu pixels are displayed "off screen"
- everything displayed on screen is "ghosted"

These all present in beta4 as well as r121, but were not present in beta2.  (never got around to trying beta3)

1- Yaeh it is because new Kernel and using udev now
2- Audio is working for me!
3- OK it can be patched
4- Here it is OK!

my Z is a SL-C3100

1. Udev?  Is there a way to get wifi & switching between networks working then, with the current beta?
2. You're lucky!  I miss my audio so much.  Anyone else experiencing this? C750
3,4,5. I can expect this in a future release?

Try go to SHELL and load alsamixer , look for MUTED audio channels and unmute it... do it while playing somethink with mplayer....

Someone test out this *hopefully* fixed USB Setting App...

Looking mainly for 3100 and 3200 users... to test... but still am looking to stable functionality from all...

Thanks

Just flashed u-boot and r121 on my C760 (was KathrinRC12); here are some comments:

u-boot
- Flashing u-boot is OK, but after, there is screen is flickering. Did not bother to fix it, so, can't say more about this.
- In order to boot after flashing the bootloader, i had to remove power sources (alim AND battery) and plug AC while holding "OK" for a few seconds.
- Had some problems with CF card: unable to read, "df -h" segfaults, ... Had to boot without the CF, then plug it, copy CF content to a SD and run autoboot.sh manually. This worked, but could be related to the card formatting.
- After flashing, the Zaurus didn't reboot. Had to unplug the power.

r121
- / is still not mounted noatime in fstab. This is bad.
- Keymap is broken: ctrl, alt, mail, home and menu doesn't work.
- When loading X then exiting, console is really weird.
- KR9 seemed faster to me.

I will report other issues soon

Hi All,
I installed 121 with no issues on C1000.
The main thing for me at this point is the wireless config is grey'd out.
I noticed that the hostap drives are not installed.

[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=142122\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

What is 121 like besides the wireless config issue?  Is it stable like beta3, quirky like beta4?  

In other words is it worth it for me to switch from beta3, which I use at work?

I've tried the new beta on my C3000, still doesn't work, I flashed the first segment holding ok, then selecting 4, and cf for the card i had it on. Once this finished it said Uboot and Emergency system are installed, hold ok to enter emergency system. After this i couldn't get it to boot, tried holding ok for 20 sec like the doc's said, and every other combination i could think of. I've flashed back to the sharp bootloader for now, but if someone can give me a push of what needs to be done to make it work on my c3000 i'll gladly do some work.

r121 works on my C3100, but there are a few problems.

I can't get XFCE4 to work, it gives me errors regarding the panel, never had these problems with beta3.

The xmodmap files are all the same, for the C700, so I can't use fn for right clicking inside X...

More to come.

In Beta 4 and rc121 the means of determining the device and xmodmap to load is done different due the device name being different and not being located in the same place (now in /proc/cpuinfo)
(Ex. Akita instead of C1000)

You will need to edit your xinitrc.xfce4 files to look for device name the same way it does in your .xinitrc file (sym link)

Ps I will be working on getting it up and running good after I finish debugging rc121

[silencer51]

On previous betas, the correct xmodmap file was akita.xmodmap in /etc/X11/kb.

Now the file is located at /etc/X11/kb/Akita/xmodmap

However, even if I try to load that, I still can't get the keyboard to function as it should...

[ljonesj]

this may be in the wrong part but i would like to install beta 4 and the newest release of pdaxrom but i can only figure out beta 3 because it installs like every other rom cacko and openzaurus so please help

[silencer51]

Ok, the xmodmap loads and works properly now.

XFCE gives me these errors:

1)Whenever I click on quit in the menu or the icon on the panel, X crashes back to the console, the error given is:

'The application 'xfce-mcs-manager' lost its connection to the display 0:0'

2)After I get dumped back to the console, I can see many errors:

"(xfce4-menu-plugin:XXXXXX): Gtk-WARNING: **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "xfce",

I have everything installed correctly (gtk related libs etc.)... What could be the problem?

Hi,

I already knew about alsamixer, it is the same "problem" as in Beta4. But here I noticed something else: When I was using Beta4 I didn't have to change the settings of mplayer. Here mplayer said "Can't open eSound Output Plugin". I changed it to "ALSA 1.2.10 output plugin" and after unmuting the audio channel it works fine now.

Audio is essential for me, I don't want to carry around an MP3-player while I have my Z with me anyway.

Hi there,

just installed r121 to my C860. I found that the apm for 860 is
not working. the battery is at 5% all the time and is not charging
at all since the charging (amber) light is not on.

Can anyone help ?

BR,

Felix.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=142075\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

On my C860 I have the same problem. The charging light remains off. When the Z is "switched on" the battery monitor applet indicates charging but I don't know if it is really doing anything??

Any fixes to that problem so far?
