Sounds great here Chaos!
I don't use anything that requires libopie anyhow.
Samba I use alot!

qtsamba is the sync application, which I thought to be useless with KDEPIM/Pi.

But apparently it's also called when the Zaurus is plugged into the USB cradle, and starts up everything needed for a connection... So when I plugged it into my Mac, under 1.5.5, it kinda sat there, and didn't do anything...

Oops, I guess. Live and learn.

libopie1 is pretty useless except for two apps in the feed, which I'll just tell them libopie1 is a required package. The two are keypebble and oxygen (which I use for chemistry in school some)... So, really, it's a pretty niche thing to be used.

Choas

Except for the few minor bugs already discussed. Everything works good.
With hancomlibs, hancomword, hancomsheet, qpdf2 and more installed to SD-card and working great... there's plenty of room for everything I use.

Thanks

PS- I think the screensavers broken

More detail on the error? It's only supposed to turn on with the A/C power, if you don't know/didn't remember that...

[tapjpa]

Screen Saver work fine for me.

It's no big deal... I was kinda joking

I'm not sure how to give you an error... it simply doesn't start when set at any amount of min. in the light settings> external power> screen saver> 5 (or whatever) min.

OK... mine works to

I had installed the qtopia-rotation.ipk and had never restarted Qtopia after install, (this has been a problem before on other apps for me) a simple restart and everythings fine.

Thanks

OK, so the screensaver *does* work in the end!


Update on what I'm doing for the next release:

libopie1 IPK: 100% done

libglib1.2 IPK: 100% done

Dependencies for packages that need those: 100% done

qtsamba back in: 100% done

KDEPIM/PI 1.9.10: 30% done (directory structure set up (for tarring up and then plopping into the rootfs), although not in the rootfs, and no links) - Note: The new PWM/Pi (password manager) will not be used, until very stable (since it's sensitive info, passwords), and only will be used then if it's smaller than zsafe. Or a heck of a lot better.

Game IPKs fixed: 0% (not started, heh - lower on my priority list )


So, nothing else to add to that list?

[tapjpa]

That pretty well covers everything I know of!
I put the ROM on both of my 5600's and been going through eveything in detail today.
I can't find any other "bugs".

[radonsg]

is there any included app that let me rotate my screen when playing videos?

[tapjpa]

There isn't one included but there is one that works well.
I'll try and run down the links for you.

Thanks tapjpa.

Chaos, possible to included sharp player as a ipk? I kind of like to use it as mp3 player. Mplayer console based thus bit hard to use it to play my mp3 on the move. Thanks.

[Chaos]

Hmm, sure, why not.

I don't like/use it, but it wouldn't be too hard to package up...

Just a note, I'm still going to play with mplayer and create a shell script that'll use some good default playing options for movies.  Like --quiet, etc. Just something like mplayer-run.sh.

OFFTOPIC: Oh yeah, on your stylus issues (read sig), one of the Tungsten T styluses work pretty well. It's about 1-1.5 cm longer than the default ones. I think the one I have is the T3 stylus... If that's still too short, you'd be better off with one of those pens that has a stylus tip built in... There's one that's a stylus, a pen, a laser pointer and a LED light all in one, if I remember correctly...

[tapjpa]

radonsg-

I put up a link to the 2 ipk's to make rotation work on a 5600.
http://www.jpanderson.net/dl/
Download both ipk's install rotate_0.0.2_arm.ipk then istall qt-embeded-rotation-fix_2.3.2-4_arm.ipk
Should do the trick for you.

does the stylus fit nicely into the stylus holder? I seen before stylus that can extend, if I can find that that fit nicely & securely into the holder that be great.

Thanks tapjpa for the link. Will to wait til the weekends to try it out. Real busy these few weeks.

Looking forward to version 1.6.
When will it be released? Few weeks time?

Chaos, it be great if you can package the sharp player for version 1.5.5 so that I can switch over. Thanks.
