Installing ipks
« Reply #15 on: December 09, 2003, 10:04:51 am »
OK.  I\'ve tried all the manual linstall tips and other things mentioned in this thread.  When I install an IPK everything looks fine, except that when I select the icon for the installed program, it tries to start and a small icon shows up in the task bar, but then the icon disappears right away and nothing else happens.

There are two odd things.

1. in the /opt/QtPalmtop/bin the correct program appears to be there.  (I am doing all this testing with Tetrix as a simple example).  However, if I \"ls -al\" all the other programs appear as links to \"quicklauncher\" whereas tetrix is just a regular file.

2. if I try to run tetrix from the commend line, I get \"tetrix: relocation error: tetrix: undefined symbol: _7QString.shared_null\".  Does this indicate a missing library or something?

I\'m getting to the point where I might go back to the Sharp ROM just to be able to do something.  The problem is that OZ is much better in almost all respects.

BTW I have installed the latest kernel posted today, perhaps theres a new image about to appear as well.

What new Kernel?  There doesn\'t seem to be anything new on openzaurus.org in the download section.  Is there a link to a download area that is different from going through the \"download\" link from the main page?

It\'s here http://openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.3.5/C760/ I have a feeling that a new image will be up soon as the 5600 has one posted today.

BTW I live in Australia so today may be tommorow for you depending where you live.

ahhhh

Theres a whole bunch of stuff there.  I think I had a mismatched set of ipk\'s and rom images.  I can now install the ipk\'s although I still have to do the modification to the ipkg.conf file.

I\'m still having a problem with the hancom apps, but other stuff seems to be installing.
