Try right-mouse click and "Save As". Worked for me.

What browser/OS are you using? When I try that I just get an HTML page (forbidden).
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=159022\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Linux, Firefox, but you're right, it's not working. The file I downloaded is only 1K in size, but I'm not getting the Forbidden message. Evidently, the permissions aren't set correctly.

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/bash
loadkeys /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/Akita/keymap.map

You may need to change Akita to match your Z. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to have this executed automatically apon an exit from X.

Give & you shall receive . Since /root/bin is near the beginning of your PATH (by default, anyway), you can create a 'wrapper' script to override the 'real' one. For example, here's my new /root/bin/startx (assuming you use startx to start your window manager):

Code: [Select]

$ ll /root/bin/startx
-rwx------    1 grog     grog          100 Apr 17 15:08 /root/bin/startx*
$ cat /root/bin/startx
#!/bin/sh
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx > xerrors 2>&1
loadkeys /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/Boxer/keymap.map

Unfortunately, for me it shows that it loads without errors, but does not correct the problem ;( (at least not in r121, I'll have to try it again when I get a chance to upgrade)

This solved a messed up keymap outside of X. Inside of it it is overridden by the xmodmap file, I believe.

By using following commands , we can fix this bug:

Code: [Select]

# cd /etc/sysconfig/keyboard
# ln -s Borzoi/keymap.map kernel.map

If your Zaurus is not C3100, replace "Borzoi" with codename of your Z.

--------------

the root cause of this bug is:
in /usr/X11R6/bin/startx :

Code: [Select]

test -f /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/kernel.map  -a f /usr/bin/loadkeys && sudo /usr/bin/loadkeys /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/kernel.map

but in r198, /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/kernel.map doesn't exist by default.

--Wells.

Tried asking this as a new topic - guess no-one spotted it. When (if at all) can we expect a new version of pdaxrom for the C3000?
What is involved in getting one sorted? Is there a process or is it a case of hacking away til it works? I know that the issue is the C3000's lack of Flash but I'm not sure how the problem gets solved (but it is solved for example Meanies pdaxii13)..... so ... can anyone point me in the right direction?

thanks

Maybe somebody already wrote it, but some bugs of r198 (for me):
1) Wrong default vCore (1.5V, instead of 1.4V. After every reboot you must switch to 104/208/312/520/624MHz, and then back to 416 - then vCore becomes 1.4V) (Note: I was using /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpu-voltage )
2) Unusable normal user (by default). To fix you need:
1. Add yourself to wheel group
2. Add to sudoers:
username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
3. Copy /home/root to /home/username and made chown -R username /home/username
4. chmod -R username /mnt
3) Some AppRun's of settings apps missing "sudo" before starting python-script. For example Input Setup
4) Wrong fstab ( /dev/hda - is microdrive on C3100, not CF!)
5) Some warnings when starting default python-apps (Settings), like:
"gtk.FALSE is deprecheated, use False instead", and Data & Time says: /sbin/sltime: No such file or directory, but works normaly.
Edit:
6) Some keymap bugs in X:
1. fn + d is d, must be `
2. tab = tab + capslock, must be tab (and fn + tab is still capslock)

P.S. Why does Data & Time execs killall openbox, after pressing OK?

Root on SD is possible with u-boot - you can add root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 in default CMDLINE of kernel (before crosscompiling it for Z) and then unpack rootfs to your sd/mmc card (same for microdrive, you just need to know name of device). But I think there is no u-boot for C3000...

While this fixes the arrow keys for me on my Boxer, the screen still doesn't want to clear itself. The cursor stays at the bottom of the screen, with all the text produced by command disappearing. If I try 'clear' or 'reset', the cursor repositions itself at the top of the screen, but this doesn't clear or even overwrite the exisitng text.

Just a note that besides the arrow keys, this is the same for me as it was in r121. and just as there, if I open a video with mplayer, the terminal is working 100% after quiting.

lougi600 suggested to me that suspend and resume will clear the screen. I can verify that it works. Can someone explain the cause of the problem and the way to fix it?

What I did is simply comment out the line in /usr/X11R6/bin/startx:

Code: [Select]

# test -f /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/kernel.map  -a f /usr/bin/loadkeys && sudo /usr/bin/loadkeys /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/kernel.map

And there doesn't seem to be any issue so far with the keys outside X.
I remember this is also used in Beta3, because the inputsetup program can mess up the keymap.
Correct me if i am wrong.

I never heard of that one, but it sure does work like a charm. Both neat & confusing

I find that the last line or two on the bottom are still messed up doing this, whereas the suspend/resume clears it up entirely.
