I\'m staring at the screen, watching the download\'s progress.  I\'ll be flashing the moment it\'s complete.

Every new release seems to resolve a few more of the little things that have annoyed me about Qtopia.

Been molesting it for several hours and it\'s still running fine.

I\'ll be happy when this portion of Sash\'s project is complete, as I redo my complete setup from scratch every time he releases a ROM, rather than trying to restore from the previous ROM\'s backup.

Someone knowledgeable needs to IPK a working version of ethereal and nmap, or even better, bundle them in the ROM along with with tcpdump, dig and smb server/client.  =)

It all looks really good so far.

One problem I have is that doom runs upside down.

The same version worked fine on the tkcrom 2.5.1 with the javaboy kernel.

back to the testing.

OK, ever since I\'ve run cacko X11, cacko 1.18 and these later updates I\'ve had intermittent issues with the touchscreen not responding to the stylus.  Formatting the user partition fixes it.  Restoring from backup doesn\'t fix it, even from a backup done prior to installing any applications.

Ideas?

Flashed the rom, restored my data and now not have any keyboard... I think must reflash, save the keyboards and then restore my data. Try later, perhaps tomorrow...

Syncro: I not have access to japanese directory in the CD where must be the Intellisync application. In my CD the name appears as \"_____\" and not exist...

Any chance to have intellisync for 860 in english, french or spanish ????

Other posibility over wlan ????

I don\'t see an SDL there.

Ooops

ALL THE WORK FROM CACKO IS GREAT !!!!!    

I had installed the thcrom initially and have been using the sharp movie player (which is awesom!!).  for some reason on the tkcrom the movieplayer did not have the bar at the bottom to ff/rew etc and can crash when you use the hardware keys to ff/rew.

Sync over wifi works great, I cannot try the usb drive bit yet as I don\'t have a usb cable yet.

I will definately be sticking with this for now.

Thanks,
Peter.

The previous link is the translator page.  I forgot that when you copy the url, it isn\'t the url for the page you are viewing.

use it to view this page which does have the sdl on it.

ah, ok, the 1.2.5 version... people seem to say this works better.

Did you try the SDL rotate 180? I wonder if that would be any slower.

Scott
ps: when I got doom working, mine was upside down too.
pps:  any luck with xu4 or exult?
