Or you will get a million alarms pop up at once and probably crash the thing.  

Think outside the box my friend...

It\'s Qtopia that handles alarms. It will just relaunch Datebook

Oh lord...

Think outside the box...

1) mv datebook datebook.bak
2) killall datebook
3) Move date forward AND TEST IF OPERA IS TRUELY A TRIAL
4) Move back date
5) mv datebook.bak datebook

What is the legal status of having Opera on the Zaurus. I was thinking the SL-C7xx models.

If permitted, was thinking of preinstalling it for our customers as an alternative to the existing (excellent I might add) Netfront browser.

That depends on which rom/QtE you have on it. You can\'t really legally run commercial qtopia apps with the GPL\'d QtE.

*cough* Distributing Opera might also not be legal.
Best check with Opera if they will allow it.

But doesn\'t that also apply to the full version of the GPL\'d QT? That would make it illegal to run shared-QT Opera on most Linux distros. (But do we really want to get started on that one again?)

Now that I could see Opera having a problem with that, since their app without adverts is not supposed to be free. Sharp did a deal with Opera for the Zaurus, but this lets people with other Qtopia+Linux PDAs use it freely.

I tried Opera 7, but ended up uninstalling it because it was so memory hungry that it kept forcing Qtopia to kill off my Fast Loaded apps just when it started. The Autosurf option also did not appear on my menu. Becareful though if you uninstall it as it deletes all of /home/zaurus/.opera .

Awww.....Come on.....  Can\'t we f\'up another thread speculating on licensing issues    ...   :evil:

I say, don\'t worry about the GPL/LGPL linking thing.  As long as we have a republican administration, communisum such as the GPL will never be validated in a court of law.  Please don\'t flame me, I like the GPL (and communisum... in theory)

Opera could have a legit beef, you may want to carefully read the IBM license that pops up before you download mm_download_sl5600.ipk.  That might give you some insight.

Here is the basic license agreement.

I have installed the opera_arm.ipk onto SD (ext2). The top right icon (mic?) is greyed out. How do I turn on the voice functions?

They only work on special web pages with VoiceML in them. The voice control isn\'t to control the browser, but is for controlling special web applications like the ones included in the complete ipk.
