OK, Now the Real New Cacko Qtopia ROM

Hardware zoom buttons won\'t work for me in Konsole. They work everywhere else, however. Konsole is jus plain stuck with a 36 pt character set.

If you installed the new cacko QT rom from this thread, then it uses qkonsole which does support the hardware zoom buttons, or at least it does on my c760.

The conf file is Qkonsole.conf in /home/zaurus/Settings.

The mapping of the euro key to fn-5 breaks the use of fn-5 to switch between fullscreen and windowed mode however. I will have to try keyhelper again.

I am still trying to get Wellenreiter working with the new Cacko 1.20 ROM.  I got some new ipk files via javab0y, but they don\'t seem to work.  

I\'m using welenreiter 0.9.9 from this feed:
http://www.vanille.de/feed/sharp/

Make sure to start wellenreiter when you have an active connection, because wellenreiter cannot handle a suspended card. Or do from console:

Code: [Select]
su

cardctl scheme qpewlan0

cardctl reset


..and then start wellenterier.

I am using the Ambicon CF1100 card.  I can get the card to work with the wlan-ng prisim drivers and, by doing the file switching technique outlined above, they will also work with the hermes file and the orinoco drivers.  Wellenreiter says my card isn\'t configured correctly no matter which set I use.  Both sets work for regular connections and kismet.  I tired the host-ap drivers but my Ambicon card won\'t work for any connection with host-ap.  Does some script need to be run to activate host-ap.  Any ideas on how to get Wellenreiter working would be appreciated.  

I have exatly same card working with HostAp drivers. What is exactly wrong with it when using these drivers? Does it get recognised?

I heard a new distribution compiled for the Cacko ROM should be out in a few days--is that true?

Well, I heard that too from Mikey. He told me he was going to build 1.0.3 this weekend. Obviousely that did not happen...

I installed the intermediate built of 1.20 ROM (It\'s very nice!!!) and I wrote some contacts, TODO and appointments in PIM applications. Now I would install the official release. Can I do a backup, install the definitive built and restore my datas without problems or can I copy in the SD the files made by the PIM applications and then restore them?  
In the last case, what and where these files are?

The best would be to sync with Windows before flashing an updated ROM. After flashing you sync again and you\'ll get your PIM data back.

If synching is not a option, you can save /home/zaurus/Applications/dtm directory and then coy it back to the new ROM.

I use a BT CF by DAIKOM (detected as CSR Bluecore 2 UART adapter) and I set a GPRS connection via my Siemens S55 for dial-up using Setting/network. It seems that it\'s all Ok. The applet says \"connected\" and pressing \"i\" button it gives right connection params (DNS, GW etc...), but if I try to use mail or browser (Opera or NF), I can\'t access to internet. NF, for example, says \"TCP write error\". Anyone can help me?

Very strange. Can you ping a site manualy from console?

ex. ping google.com

What does it say?

What output do you see from ifconfig command?

I noticed that new ROM lacks Russian phonetic keyboard layout (it was included in intermediate release). Any chance to post that file somewhere to be available for download???  

Here you go.

Actualy even Intel itself overclocks its processors - how else do you name selling the same processor with a different multiplier? Pentium 4 2.4 and Pentium 4 3.0 have abs0olutely no difference other than multiplier. But look at their prices...

In the \"old\" days I was told that the chips went through a quality check and the ones with the better qualtity got the higher clock rate. That was the risk then, see how far you could push your  own hardware. I don\'t know how it\'s done now.

What I don\'t really get in all these horror scenarios: don\'t people actually measure the temperature? How can you burn up your Laptop etc? They just overclock the hardware and leave it alone?  :?:

All was going well (Cacko Qtopia ROM) ... but the Package Manager has developed a problem. It won\'t install packages anymore ... I get \"ipkg says something went wrong. Sorry\". Even if I uninstall a package which was previously installed, it won\'t reinstall. Does anyone know how to fix this? A Reboot does not help.

Thanks

Yupp.
No sweat.
Open up the pc-link-applet, select network, press ok and plug your zaurus into some linux or windows box. Wait a moment until the Z has initialized the network and stuff, then unplug it again, reopen pc-link and select storage. That\'s what worked in my case. The problem seems to be that in \"virgin\" (just installed) condition, the storage_fd module doesn\'t seem to load.

Good luck,
Abed

Is there any home page for this rom (well... except here of course!!)?

www.cacko.biz has become the pdaxrom page.
