Upgrading Beta1/beta3 To Pdaxii13

[InSearchOf]

do a xrandr -o 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 until it is correct and add it the bottom of your .xinitrc under your home dir...

Late

PS. Sorry I'm so vague... I didnt develop for pdaXii..

C860 user here with the first problem  . The upgrade (from beta1) went without error, and the reboot went fine & X starts ok. But the display comes up rotated 90 degrees clockwise, so it's sitting sideways pointed the wrong way when the unit is in clampshell mode (i.e. the keyboard is visible), and rotates upside down when the unit screen is rotated to portrait mode.

Any idea how I can fix this? thks

if I had a tarball of a beta1 system (prior to upgrading) then it would help me out as a guide in general. in order to  fix the upside down rotation problem, i need the startx script under /usr/X11R6/bin


to create the tarball, please do the following:

Code: [Select]

tar czf /mnt/card/corgi.tgz /bin /etc /home /lib /root /sbin /usr

this is what I was looking for![div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=155141\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

the SD module to support >1GB SD cards won't be available to c7x0/c8x0 models.[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=155144\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

I was starting to get really interested too, until I read this post of course  . I guess the issue is that the c7x0 models still use the 2.6.18 kernel instead of the 2.6.20, right? There's no way to get that working for us poor older clampshells?[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=155146\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

actually, there is a driver for 2.4.18 that works on Sharp ROM and can in theory be copied to pdaXrom with modified sd scripts but I am unable to test this without having one of those models...
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=155147\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

There's an eager tester right here!  I've got the driver (installed & working under Cacko). If you can walk me through what I'd need to do, I'll be your guinea pig.

install this package on beta1 and see what happens with the SD card (of course don't install this package from a SD card directly

do a xrandr -o 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 until it is correct and add it the bottom of your .xinitrc under your home dir...[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=155198\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

'xrandr -o 1' did the trick for landscape mode, but then rotating the screen flips it wrong again both in that & portrait, so I have to run it again (I assume the rotate script is hard coded for this value). No problem though, this gets me running properly in the mean time. thanks

It seems I can't upload a 32mb file to the board  , so you can grab it [a href=\"http://grogsworld.dyndns.org/zaurus/corgi-beta1.tgz]here[/url].

Thanks for all of your help & hard work (past, present & future ). It's MUCH appreciated.

any chance we can see pdaxii13 format big SD cards to FAT?

what are you asking? FAT16 has a 2GB limit, that's one of the reason FAT32 was created...

Beta # only sees 4gig FAT 32 as 1 gig. I thought you knew--formatting at 4 gig to FAT32 yeilds a 1 gig FAT32 sd in beta3. Thought I'd ask if there was hope for a fix in PDaxii13.  I'm guessing there won't be--seems like some fundamental sort of problem with the way the module handles FAT32--but I thought I'd ask.  4 gigs that would pop into pretty much any box would be handy.

kernel 2.6 doesn't seem to have this problem which I why I suspect it isn't going to be fixed

erm... i've been using a 4GB SD card in pdaXii13 for like since build1....

[adf]

I have also been using a 4 gig for about as long as we've known the module could be imported.  I might hve been among the first to try it, in fact.  that isn't the point.  
try this:
backup your 4 gig sd
fdisk it to type 6 (windows FAT32..or was it type b--I always have to check)
format it  vfat -F 32
check the size
I bet it will say 1 gig

type 82/ext2 works just fine.

this is actually a known issue.

I had originally been mildly curious as to whether anyone knew a fix, not intending to inform you of a defect.  I think the problem maybe has something to do with the module, since the kernel can see >4 gig FAT32 on other media, and since the issue doesnt exist in 2.6 based roms.  I seem to remember hrw saying it had something to do with block sizes.

Have you really never run into this?  there was a thread running about it last fall.

I had this issue and found it seems to be a buggy mkfs version under beta3.
When you use the D+B boot emergency system and format the card's partition  there with

Code: [Select]

mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/mmcda1it will have 4GB again, with Fat32 FS (I tried this only with a 2GB card, though).

I have copied the mkfs versions from there to the main system now, so I can format cards without booting into D+B.

do a xrandr -o 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 until it is correct and add it the bottom of your .xinitrc under your home dir...[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=155198\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

'xrandr -o 1' did the trick for landscape mode, but then rotating the screen flips it wrong again both in that & portrait, so I have to run it again (I assume the rotate script is hard coded for this value). No problem though, this gets me running properly in the mean time. thanks
