| 00:00.07 | zedkatuf | eventually bit the bullet & got a bigger sd card |
| 00:00.15 | zedkatuf | soz can't help |
| 00:00.41 | kiatoa | Well, I have ample CF disk. Just can't get to a point where I can use it. :( |
| 00:01.30 | zedkatuf | sd instead? |
| 00:01.54 | kiatoa | zedkatuf: I'm embarrased to say - what is the difference? |
| 00:02.43 | zedkatuf | i keep cf slot free for wi-fi that's all |
| 00:04.17 | kiatoa | Good idea, my sleeve only takes one card. |
| 00:04.44 | kiatoa | I moved /usr/lib/ipkg to /tmp and I'm trying again. |
| 00:10.40 | *** join/#gpe herzi_lap (~herzi@c141165.adsl.hansenet.de) |
| 00:14.54 | kiatoa | Any way to regenerate the ipkg status file? |
| 00:15.34 | zedkatuf | soz, no idea |
| 00:15.55 | pb_ | no |
| 00:16.05 | pb_ | the information in the ipkg status file isn't duplicated anywhere else. |
| 00:16.22 | kiatoa | I suspected as much. |
| 00:17.18 | pb_ | You could write a script to look at the list of installed files and guess at what packages they came from, but it would only be a guess. There's no way to recover the version numbers of installed packages, for example. |
| 00:19.41 | kiatoa | pb_: The files in handhelds.org/~pb/unstable - which do you recomend as a starting point - time to start fresh. |
| 00:20.02 | pb_ | kiatoa: unstable16 is the latest, and probably the best. |
| 00:21.49 | kiatoa | Ok. I think I had problems with it since it is too big to upgrade and I can't install ext2/3 modules (don't match kernel). |
| 00:23.56 | kiatoa | I'll try this: 1. flash and then remove everything I can (after moving ipkg dir to tmp), 2. Upgrade kernel, 3. Setup CF card with ext3, 4. Re-install stuff using ext. Worth a try? |
| 00:24.15 | pb_ | Sounds worth a go, yeah |
| 00:24.34 | kiatoa | Ok. |
| 00:24.50 | zedkatuf | pb_ : gpe keeps bombing out & returning to the graphical logon screen now rather than letting me longon |
| 00:24.53 | zedkatuf | logon |
| 00:26.04 | pb_ | check your .xsession-errors |
| 00:26.19 | zedkatuf | http://pastebin.ca/2084 |
| 00:27.04 | pb_ | that doesn't look like .xsession-errors |
| 00:27.14 | zedkatuf | re .xsession-errors ...hang on... |
| 00:28.23 | zedkatuf | http://pastebin.ca/2085 |
| 00:28.30 | zedkatuf | looks fairly sortable |
| 00:28.55 | pb_ | yeah, your matchbox install is busted |
| 00:29.13 | zedkatuf | ok, time to tfer more files |
| 00:31.34 | zedkatuf | does matchbox have files installed in lots of places? |
| 00:31.49 | zedkatuf | there;s /usr/lib/matchbox |
| 00:31.59 | zedkatuf | ..wondering if anywhere else |
| 00:33.15 | pb_ | dunno. 'ipkg files matchbox' would tell you. |
| 00:41.25 | kiatoa | pb_: if I oemake bootstrap-image can I setup gpe from there and how much work (configuration) is needed? |
| 00:44.14 | pb_ | yeah |
| 00:44.18 | pb_ | just ipkg install gpe |
| 00:44.24 | pb_ | (or whatever subset of gpe you want) |
| 00:46.32 | zedkatuf | pb_ & likewuse ipkg install opie |
| 00:46.33 | zedkatuf | ? |
| 00:46.36 | pb_ | right |
| 00:46.55 | zedkatuf | so it'd just be a matter of doing both & that's it |
| 00:47.06 | zedkatuf | (ie gpe & opie on same box) |
| 00:47.10 | zedkatuf | ? |
| 00:47.33 | kiatoa | pb_: Good. I'll try that. Thanks very much for answering all my questions! |
| 00:50.26 | pb_ | zedkatuf: right |
| 00:51.16 | zedkatuf | ahh well |
| 00:51.21 | zedkatuf | you live & learn :P |
| 00:51.37 | zedkatuf | I've just flashed soooo often |
| 00:51.50 | zedkatuf | I decided to have a break haha |
| 00:52.01 | zedkatuf | & go the long way around |
| 00:52.10 | zedkatuf | anyway, only a few errros now: |
| 00:52.22 | zedkatuf | locale_get_files: could not stat!: No such file or directory |
| 00:52.23 | zedkatuf | /etc/gpe/locale.default: No such file or directory |
| 00:52.23 | zedkatuf | /home/zaurus/.gpe/locale: No such file or directory |
| 00:52.43 | zedkatuf | & also: |
| 00:52.49 | zedkatuf | keylaunch: not found |
| 00:54.46 | zedkatuf | ahh |
| 00:55.05 | zedkatuf | more xsession errors....didna see em b4....will fix & then sleep |
