Cacko Zaurus Qtopia ROM 1.21 is available!

[maslovsky]

I don\'t recommend using that mode at all (if possible) - its implementation in Qtopia is buggy...

Do you mean not using Portrait only applications or swiveling the screen around and letting Qtopia change the current onscreen app to portrait mode - I.e with Hancom Word or something. (I have not had a problem with any of the apps on your ROM with this functionality only other apps I have installed.).

No, I meant 320x240 mode.

I am a new user of the SL-C860 who is experiencing problems when opening large pdf or word documents, since using the Cacko Rom 121 w/hotfix A. When opening the documents in HancomWord and PDF the hourglass appears then after 20 secs disappears. The same documents could be successfully opened when i had I used the original Sharp Rom.

Is it a memory problem?  

Thanks in advance.

What size is the document you\'re tying to open?

Maslovsky thanks for your reply. The largest file size i can open is 2,122kb
In addition i have setup my root partition size to 30mb.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry to drone on (I\'m not that clued up yet!) but I assume the majourity of applications are designed for 320x240 (ie. older devices) and there is no easy way to change this or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks again.

Whoops just realised you should uncheck the \'Execute with magniifed screen option.

Thanks again.

I finally got a stable BT! Dunno why, but if I set the clock to \"PXA250\", it works! Now, I can get a very stable BT connection with my PC and mobile phone

Nice catch!  That should be usefull tip to anyone expiriencing \"strange\" problems with their Zs: Turn off overclocking (set CPU speed to default)

The point is: I\'m using C760 and the defualt should be PXA255, not PXA250.  But I have to force to PXA250 or sometimes Power Saving mode to get stable BT  :wink:

Dunno if this is my BT problem (old version Nokia card).  But I have not experienced (or not noticed??) same problem in previous rom.

I see. This is usefull anyway. Don\'t know for sure what exactly may be the problem... If you have time, you may want to try previouse ROM versions and see if problems exists.

BTW, can I change the CPU speed via a script?  i want to write a script in ip-up and ip-down to change the speed auto.

Yep, do an \"echo XXX ] /proc/cccr_change\", where XXX is a number depending on what CPU/Bus/Mem speed you need. Look up the actual numbers in /home/zaurus/Settings/freqchange.conf

HI there
well, I really like this cacko ROM compared to what was installed - I have one and a first question though. I am unable to produce a question mark (?) in Hancom Word. Does anyone know how to do this?

Did you install Hotfix 1.21a?

[itreeye]

Hi maslovsky, no I haven\'t. I haven\'t heard of this either (I\'m obviously very new to this) Could you point me to where or how I can do this?

How do you reboot your Zaurus?

2. When setting the PC Link to USB Storage, when I plug it in the network interfaces come up (as if it was set to USB Storage)
On my desktop I\'m running Gentoo Linux, I tried with kernel 2.6.5-mm and 2.6.6-mm-rc2. Any ideas?

Did you try on another PC?

I\'ve tried it with several PC\'s, both Linux and Windows. Same thing, I have PC Link set to USB Storage and I get a TCP/IP link.

The only other idea I have is to make a backup of your data, then perform a clean ROM flash without restoring your backup first. If it works, then restore your backup and try again. If it fails then there is something you\'ve done in the configuration that breaks USB storage funcitonality...

I haven\'t had the time to do the full backup-flash-test-restore song and dance, but I got a new data point from a bit of reverse engineering. I changed the profile to Network, went into the Settings directory and did an ls -lt. The files with the latest timestamp were route.conf and usbdstorage.conf. route.conf contained the string \"Network\". Then I switched back to USB Storage, checked the files again and route.conf STILL had the string \"Network\".

So, is this where the ROM stores the current PC Link config? If so, then for some reason it isn\'t being updated. What is the value it should hold for USB Storage? Otherwise, where does the ROM store this info?

[ThC]

maslovsky, I did reboot it by removing the battery ... anyway I finished by reinstalling the rom but i\'d still like to know if there\'s a file where is stored the state of the screen (lightened up or shuted off) ?

Could someone point me to some instructions for using the Ratoc CF USB Host to access mass storage devices with Cacko Rom 1.21. I plug in the card and it is recognised... sorry to be slow but what is next?

Now plug your storage device, such as USB flash card. It should appear under Files tab
