Thank you for your efforts

Installing was fine. But charging battery and suspend on c860 is still broken, isnt it?
Yellow light is always off. Can charge from diagnostic menu (yellow light is on), but
dont know when to stop

What do I wrong? At boot time an error message about ac adaptor occurs.

I have r197 installed on 860 and haven't come across this issue.

ADDED: I used the u-boot in r121. Dunno if there is any difference from the one in r197.

Hi

I used the r121 to do an emergency boot and install 197

Latest pdaxrom with good apm support for c860 was kathrin beta1
I would be very cool to bring this functionality back

I cant believe that both accu packs are broken

A quick fixes for the key and mouse click issue in r197 (based on dinorex's and Capn_Fish's tips):

#1 Fix mouse right and middle clicks:
Edit /etc/sysconfig/x11mousebutt
Change the values from

hold_right_button 0
right_button 96
middle_button 97
power_button 117

To

Code: [Select]

hold_right_button 0
right_button 69
middle_button 50
power_button 117

Save the file.

#2 Edit /usr/bin/inputconfig.py
Change the values as follows:

Code: [Select]

self.rightmouse_mod = 69
self.middlemouse_mod = 50
self.ctrl_mod = 37
self.alt_mod = 64

Save the file.

#3 Edit ~/Choices/input.cfg, in the 3rd line, use

Code: [Select]

... MIDDLEMOUSEMOD="50" ... RIGHTMOUSEMOD="69"And you may also want to change the "Shortcuts" in there.
Save the file.

(Re)start X. The keys should work now.

#4 There is also a fix for the four application keys (Calendar, Address, Mail, Home), see

Also i find matchbox is rather crippled in r197. Applets, Add/Remove in task bar, Application keys don't work. I have switched to icewm and things are much better now.
And the xmodmap still has the same mistakes found in the old releases.
Will go report in the bug tracker.

The message I got during boot time is

sharpsl-pm sharpsl-pm: Error: AC check failed
sharpsl-pm sharpsl-pm: Charging error

Any hints?

No, i can't see it during boot or dmesg....

Maybe my C-860 hardware is broken. Are their users around with c860 and 197 working?

I had that my first boot on my akita with this release... but it was due to my battery being 100% dead... but it resolved itself after a recharge

Seems to have installed fine. Not as yet noticed any APM errors/problems.
Can't seem to get wifi to work though?

Set up wifi card in lan&wifi app and it doesn't do anything when I click ok, card isn't initialised?

So far all looks ok. Least I got it to install, never did with r121 (think that was CF issues, used SD this time).

You need scripts to get lan to work. See pdaxrom.org for them.

Yes I figured that. I couldn't remember which though.

Looked at the scripts and it seems I get errors if I try

Code: [Select]

ifconfig wlan0
Can't post the output just yet as my C860 jus tlocked up on me solid

Anyway, get errors about symbol spectrum firmware in dmesg output???

This card shouldn't need firmware as far as I recall, never has in any other release I've used (OZ/cacko).

The card in question is a Socket LP CF WLAN.

kellyharding · « **Reply #14 on:** April 15, 2007, 11:23:37 am »

OK, figured out the lock up. Wasn't a lock up. Was battery/APM related

Seems I'm getting the APM issue of the battery not charging.

Kinda bug that makes the release useless for me really
