Watapon ROM

[Chaos]

How about having both PIMs (Sharp and KDEPIM) as IPKs?
In that way we may pick and choose which one suits better our needs.

Because, to put it simply, the KDEPIM is way more advanced than the Sharp PIM. It's just several hundred years more advanced. Props to zautrix, by the way, for that.  I'd prefer to have the more advanced one in by default.

If you haven't given the KDEPIM a try, I *highly* suggest you do.

any changes of getting gaim and xmms as ipkg? It be nice.

[Chaos]

I once tried using XMMS, and it didn't work for me...

Same thing with GAIM. It just didn't work.

That is sad.


Anyone using the usb tcp/ip connection with a linux machine.

I have watapon 1.4 installed on my 5600 and gaim is working perfectly for me. You just have to follow the instructions on the qpegaim website in order for it to work. There is a missing library file that you need to dl.  A complete package of gaim and the library would probably help out a lot of people.

randonsg: 1.5.5 network over USB connectivity is broken.

Will be fixed in 1.5.6.

vemp: I'm not stupid.  I followed the libpng instructions and it wasn't that kind of error. It kept trying to write the preferences to /.gaim or to ~/.gaim, but failing. I tried every trick I could make up (symbolic links, creating empty files, etc.) and it didn't work for me. Not on Watapon, not on Sharp, not on tKC, not on Zynergy.

It worked a while ago, but doesn't anymore, oddly.

Chaos:
Ye. I discover that. Now I having a headache cos I lost connectivity to my sl-5600. Wondering how I can transfer the 1.5.6 to my compact flash when it's is ready. Any idea on that?

Got CF network card? Use that directly to the CF card, and then just untar it there.

If not, I'll see what I can do...

k. I now using my wifi card to down the 1.4.1. Hope the connection is stable enough for complete down. So will the 1.5.6 be released today?

[gentoosiastix]

good work, I hope to prove your new ROM, there is possibility of translating it to the Spanish?
some tool to do?

thanks from spain

sorry for my inglish

[stormer]

Any chance of sticking a rotate app into a future release ?

I am enjoying playing with your ROM - makes the 5600 useful !

[tapjpa]

stormer-

If you go back a couple pages in this thread I posted a link to 2 ipk's that will provide rotation.
It works well with chaos's ROM.

Tried those but they seem to freeze for about 3 mins, then crash the gui causing a restart !

Will try again on a completly clean install, I was wondering if they could be part of the ROM image ?

I loaded up lots of stuff trying to get bluetooth working consistently so I may have caused problems with libs.

Any new  ETA on 1.6  Chaos ?

[Chaos]

Yo no sé traducir Qtopia en español... Y mi español no esta perfecta.
(It's been a while since I've done much in Spanish.)

I'll consider the rotation if I can figure out a way to get enough space into it. I've only got about 200KB free, which is not enough for the rotation...

And as said, 1.6 will be out once the KDEPIM suite reaches 2.0.

(1.5.6 will be out later today, after I get some food into me.)

[radonsg]

Well, the rotation app can be installed easily using the link tapjpa provide and it worked nicely. Only thing is that it will sort of hang there for about 30s to a min before it finished.
