| 00:15.19 | Hhhhh | hello |
| 00:15.25 | flipouk | hi |
| 00:15.29 | Hhhhh | i've a question about memory |
| 00:15.50 | flipouk | have you received your Z? |
| 00:15.51 | Hhhhh | I'm looking into installing OpenZaurus |
| 00:15.53 | Hhhhh | yea, I did |
| 00:15.57 | flipouk | :) |
| 00:16.04 | Hhhhh | it works like a chamr, I put Sharp 3.10 and some apps, it rocks |
| 00:16.09 | Hhhhh | wifi internet is smooth too |
| 00:16.13 | flipouk | kewl |
| 00:16.43 | Hhhhh | anyways, I'm considering installing OpenZaurus (there is GNU Octave package for it, and that'd be useful for me) |
| 00:17.04 | Hhhhh | and I am trying to decide which kernel image to use |
| 00:17.13 | Hhhhh | I don't know much about the Z's memory structure |
| 00:17.33 | Hhhhh | I understand it has 16MB ROM and 64 RAM, but that some RAM is used for storage as well? |
| 00:17.40 | Hhhhh | like to install apps, etc? |
| 00:17.50 | Hhhhh | I have a SD card that I would like to leave for my files only |
| 00:18.18 | Hhhhh | so, if possible, I wanna keep most stuff in Z itself |
| 00:18.27 | flipouk | ok |
| 00:18.36 | Hhhhh | how does the RAM stuff work? If I do a full reset, what does get wiped out? |
| 00:19.16 | flipouk | when you isntalled ROM 3.10, your Z was in a certain state |
| 00:19.23 | flipouk | if you do a full reset, |
| 00:19.29 | flipouk | that's what's remain |
| 00:19.35 | Hhhhh | ok |
| 00:19.48 | Hhhhh | so, I assume that other apps I installed into internal flash are wiped out? |
| 00:19.54 | flipouk | yes |
| 00:20.06 | Hhhhh | but not the ROM image itself |
| 00:20.13 | flipouk | exactly |
| 00:20.18 | Hhhhh | like, for example, Opera came with 3.10, so if I do full reset it stays? |
| 00:20.26 | flipouk | true |
| 00:20.39 | Hhhhh | but I installed qpdf in internal flash, and that would be wiped? |
| 00:20.50 | flipouk | yes |
| 00:20.54 | Hhhhh | ok, gotcha |
| 00:21.12 | flipouk | the best is to do a backup before doing your hard reset |
| 00:21.21 | flipouk | it works great for me |
| 00:21.26 | Hhhhh | I'm worried about files in it |
| 00:21.29 | *** join/#zaurus MegadethGuy (n=ElPapa@70.98.95.186) |
| 00:21.30 | Hhhhh | I mean, I'm not |
| 00:21.36 | Hhhhh | I have everything backed uo on PC |
| 00:22.02 | flipouk | if you keep your files on the sd card, just remove the sd card before doing dangerous stuff |
| 00:22.09 | Hhhhh | my other question is: I understand that 5500 has 16MB ROM and 64 RAM |
| 00:22.10 | Hhhhh | ok |
| 00:22.11 | flipouk | (or unmount it) |
| 00:22.36 | Hhhhh | but when I look in System Info, under Internal Storage total, it says 28785kb |
| 00:22.37 | flipouk | soudn about right, yes |
| 00:22.44 | Hhhhh | what is that? |
| 00:23.09 | Hhhhh | also, Total memory shows 32092 kB |
| 00:23.32 | flipouk | you sure you have a 5500? not a 5500D? |
| 00:23.38 | Hhhhh | yea, 5500 |
| 00:23.40 | Hhhhh | sure |
| 00:23.59 | Hhhhh | 5500D? I thought it was 5000D |
| 00:24.21 | flipouk | maybe 500#D yes, but htat one had 32MD |
| 00:24.24 | flipouk | MB |
| 00:24.41 | flipouk | well mine says 28785 also |
| 00:25.05 | flipouk | so I guess that there is 64MB in total |
| 00:25.09 | Hhhhh | what does that mean? |
| 00:25.10 | MegadethGuy | is sharp still making and selling the Zaurus out of Japan now? |
| 00:25.10 | Hhhhh | oh |
| 00:25.15 | flipouk | 32MB for the ROM, 32MB for the RAM |
| 00:25.17 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, yea |
| 00:25.39 | Hhhhh | flipouk, I was thinking that maybe RAM = Total Memory + Internal Storage |
| 00:25.43 | MegadethGuy | so.. I could go thru one of the importers and get one of the clamshell types then? |
| 00:25.46 | Hhhhh | so Internal Storage maybe doesn't use ROM |
| 00:26.05 | Hhhhh | I mean, it ROM storage maybe isn't included in Iternal Storage |
| 00:26.33 | Hhhhh | and 32Mb of RAM are for system memory and the other ~32 are internal storage |
| 00:26.39 | MegadethGuy | o |
| 00:26.50 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, yes |
| 00:26.59 | MegadethGuy | I'm trying to decide between going with a Z or perhaps upgrading to another Palm device... |
| 00:27.02 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, although only newer big models are not discontinued |
| 00:27.14 | flipouk | MegadethGuy: I am inthe UK. In the UK: http://shirtpocket.co.uk |
| 00:27.20 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, I love the Z, but I'm kindof a tinkerer |
| 00:27.35 | Hhhhh | if you like to tinker, Z > palm |
| 00:27.38 | flipouk | Hhhhh: I guess you must be right |
| 00:27.53 | Hhhhh | if not, if you ant a plain PDA, I guess they're fairly even |
| 00:28.35 | MegadethGuy | do you recommend using the open zaurus rom or the one that the importers provide? |
| 00:28.37 | flipouk | Hhhhh: If you install an OpenZuarus ROM, you can decide the repartition between ROM and RAM yourself anyway |
| 00:28.50 | flipouk | (It used to be so at least last time I tried) |
| 00:29.08 | Hhhhh | is it between ROM, or just amount two sectors of RAM? |
| 00:29.40 | Hhhhh | since OpenZaurus gives options that add up to 64Mb, I think it's RAM only, without taking ROM in consideration |
| 00:29.55 | flipouk | Hhhhh: when you select the rom you want to d/l, you are asked the rom size you want |
| 00:29.59 | Hhhhh | not sure though, i'm just speculating |
| 00:30.07 | Hhhhh | yea, I saw that |
| 00:30.30 | Hhhhh | but ROM + RAM in a Zaurus would be 80Mb, not 64, and those ROMs add up to 32 or 64 |
| 00:30.35 | flipouk | well the oz ROM will replace your sharp ROM |
| 00:30.42 | Hhhhh | well, yea |
| 00:30.44 | Hhhhh | you're right |
| 00:30.59 | flipouk | what they called the ROM is a kind of non writable RAM |
| 00:31.01 | Hhhhh | I think Internal Storage must mean like config files and other apps you add later |
| 00:31.19 | flipouk | like a RAM with permission 000 |
| 00:31.33 | flipouk | (unix permission I mean) |
| 00:31.57 | Hhhhh | yea, look |
| 00:31.59 | Hhhhh | So which kernel file is right for you? In essence, higher X values let you run more demanding programs (or more programs at once) while higher Y values give you more space for installing programs and saving files. A rule of thumb is that if you have a decent memory card you should choose a kernel with Y = 0 and keep your stuff on the card. |
| 00:32.04 | Hhhhh | Note: Since X and Y refer to parts of your Zaurus’ RAM, you should choose a file for which X + Y equals your Zaurus’ RAM capacity (64MB for SL5500 and 32MB for SL5000D). |
| 00:32.15 | MegadethGuy | with Openzaurus do you still have the HWR functionality? or does that 'go away'? and does it really matter anyway.. ;) |
| 00:32.18 | Hhhhh | it's RAM partition only, ROM is handled different |
| 00:32.26 | flipouk | yeah. that's the beauty of oz in comparison to sharp |
| 00:32.54 | flipouk | MegadethGuy: what's HWR? |
| 00:32.57 | MegadethGuy | oh sorry |
| 00:33.03 | MegadethGuy | handwrite recognition |
| 00:33.10 | flipouk | oh yes you have |
| 00:33.15 | MegadethGuy | I forgot that HWR term is a bit outdated.. sorry.. :-/ |
| 00:33.20 | flipouk | it's not the sharp one though |
| 00:33.46 | flipouk | but as far as i rmemeber it is good enough |
| 00:33.53 | MegadethGuy | I'm just trying to decide if I want to move away from Palm devices and go to something completely new... and I don't mind tinkering a bit.. |
| 00:34.11 | MegadethGuy | I DO wish that sharp and continued to market the SL6000 tho.. even if only via direct mail.. |
| 00:34.13 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, this is my first PDA, I got it 5 days ago |
| 00:34.18 | Hhhhh | and I'm loving it a lot so far |
| 00:34.33 | Hhhhh | so I can't really compare with Palm since I've never used it before |
| 00:34.50 | flipouk | MegadethGuy: Palm's great |
| 00:35.01 | flipouk | but (for the moment at least) it is not linux |
| 00:35.05 | MegadethGuy | right.. |
| 00:35.23 | flipouk | if having linux in your pocket is important, go for the Z |
| 00:35.25 | MegadethGuy | Hhhhh: what model did you get? |
| 00:35.36 | flipouk | buy a cheap one off eBay to start with |
| 00:35.40 | *** join/#zaurus SubNuke (i=[U2FsdGV@pdpc/supporter/active/SubNuke) |
| 00:35.43 | MegadethGuy | having linux in my pocket *is not* important.. ;) |
| 00:35.46 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, the SL-5500 |
| 00:35.50 | MegadethGuy | oh I've used the Z before... |
| 00:36.02 | MegadethGuy | Hhhhh did you get it off of ebay? |
| 00:36.03 | flipouk | then keep with Palm )unless you're in Japan) |
| 00:36.11 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, yes |
| 00:36.19 | MegadethGuy | flipouk: really? |
| 00:36.40 | flipouk | Well there is *no* support for the Z outrside of Japan |
| 00:36.45 | MegadethGuy | oh I know.. |
| 00:36.48 | MegadethGuy | but I know linux... |
| 00:37.00 | flipouk | They tried to introduce the 5500/5600 in Europe, it failed apparently |
| 00:37.01 | MegadethGuy | so I really wasn't worried about that.. |
| 00:37.04 | Hhhhh | MegadethGuy, I paid $162.50 + shipping for it with 128 SD card, Linksys Wifi CF card, cradle, manuals, CD-ROM, etc |
| 00:37.05 | MegadethGuy | ak. |
| 00:37.22 | MegadethGuy | Hhhhh really? dang.. better troll ebay then.. ;) |
| 00:37.26 | flipouk | I think the situation in the same in the States |
| 00:37.26 | Hhhhh | yea |
| 00:37.36 | MegadethGuy | flipouk - it is... |
| 00:37.39 | Hhhhh | flipouk, I know several people who own a Z |
| 00:38.13 | flipouk | Hhhhh: the problem I have here in London is that very few people know the Z |
| 00:38.13 | Hhhhh | well, *know* as in we frequent same local IRC channel, maybe go to same school, etc |
| 00:38.50 | flipouk | So if I go to a shhop beacuase I want to buy a wifi acrd for example, people cannot tell me if it's going to be compatble |
| 00:39.05 | flipouk | I would not have this problem witj a palm |
| 00:39.07 | MegadethGuy | oh good point.. |
| 00:39.12 | Hhhhh | well, I can tell you about the one I got ;) |
| 00:39.18 | Hhhhh | it works wondefully |
| 00:39.22 | Hhhhh | gets a little hot though |
| 00:39.24 | MegadethGuy | same thing with the newton... |
| 00:39.38 | flipouk | I have one now... thx |
| 00:39.43 | MegadethGuy | you *can* do wifi.. but of course.. you have to talk to the few geeks left who use it... ;) |
| 00:39.55 | flipouk | MegadethGuy: exactly |
| 00:40.23 | MegadethGuy | the people I know who use pdas all pretty much hate winmobile... |
| 00:40.35 | MegadethGuy | so I guess I'll end up getting another palm eventually.. |
| 00:41.13 | flipouk | MegadethGuy: I would love to be able to tell you: go for a Z! |
| 00:41.33 | flipouk | but Sharp decided to kill it outside Jaan, not me :) |
| 00:41.39 | flipouk | Jaan=Japan |
| 00:41.51 | flipouk | I am happy with my Z |
| 00:42.07 | flipouk | but frankly today, I would go for a Palm |
| 00:42.21 | flipouk | (i would not go for a Windows one neither) |
| 00:42.42 | flipouk | anyway |
| 00:42.48 | flipouk | that's just my opinion |
| 00:42.50 | MegadethGuy | yea.. right now the TX looks like the best choice... |
| 00:42.58 | flipouk | ok |
| 00:42.59 | MegadethGuy | the Lifedrive has too many that are dead out of the box |
| 00:43.14 | flipouk | or do as Hhhhh did: get a cheap one off eBay |
| 00:43.57 | flipouk | but paying sooo much for the latest clamshell ones, think twice |
| 00:44.10 | flipouk | If everyting works fine it's ok |
| 00:44.13 | MegadethGuy | yea... I see your point... |
| 00:44.15 | Hhhhh | yea, no point on getting latest clamshell just as PDA |
| 00:44.23 | Hhhhh | maybe if you use it for some specific worki thingy |
| 00:44.30 | Hhhhh | if not, I'd get a laptop anyday |
| 00:44.36 | MegadethGuy | right |
| 00:44.47 | MegadethGuy | thanks guys.. I appreciate the calibration.. ;) |
| 00:44.51 | flipouk | :) |
| 00:45.06 | flipouk | I have to go |
| 00:45.11 | flipouk | I hope I helped |
| 00:45.11 | MegadethGuy | have a good weekend |
| 00:45.14 | MegadethGuy | you have |
| 00:45.18 | flipouk | bye |
| 00:45.21 | MegadethGuy | I've heard rumor about new palm stuff.. |
| 00:45.26 | MegadethGuy | so I'll wait a little longer |

| 19:21.50 | Hhhhh | hi pgas :) |
| 19:21.51 | licksjp | pgas, hellllllllllllooooooooooooo |
| 19:21.52 | Hhhhh | I'm trying to follow these directions to get samba to work in my 5500/Sharp 3.10: http://www.ottaky.com/zaurus.php under Mounting Windows Shares. It wants libncurses.so.5, but the link in this page is broken |
| 19:22.22 | licksjp | I think ljp too busy |
| 19:23.04 | Hhhhh | I go to Zaurus Software Index and try to download libncurses5_5.0-6.0potato1_arm.ipk, but the linkis broken |
| 19:23.26 | Hhhhh | I tried googling for it, but I get some version that don't work |
| 19:25.56 | subdue | that's a oz page |
| 19:26.05 | pgas | Hhhhh: improve your googling skills ;) |
| 19:26.09 | pgas | http://www.dasgehtdichnichtsan.de/zaurus/libncurses_5.0_arm.ipk |
| 19:26.15 | pgas | http://www.dasgehtdichnichtsan.de/zaurus/smbmount.html |
| 19:26.40 | subdue | hmm..misread |
| 19:26.43 | subdue | not an oz page |
| 19:27.31 | Tomoe | hy |
| 19:28.08 | subdue | lots of pages with potato ipk |
| 19:28.30 | licksjp | Tomoe, hello |
| 19:28.34 | Hhhhh | hah! |
| 19:28.37 | Hhhhh | sweet! |
| 19:28.39 | Hhhhh | thx pgas ;) |
| 19:29.03 | subdue | http://ossh.com/zaurus/feed/libncurses5_5.0-6.0potato1_arm.ipk <= the exact potato one you specified |
| 19:29.19 | subdue | if the other one doesn't work |
| 19:29.34 | Hhhhh | subdue, I tried to download that file from two different sites and the installation was broken |
| 19:29.44 | Hhhhh | the one pgas gave me worked fine, but thanks a lot anyways |
| 19:29.51 | subdue | as long as it works |
| 19:38.36 | Hhhhh | ok, pretty much the last thing I want in my 5500/Sharp 3.10 is a good MSN Messenger, for some reason I could not get Gaim to work properly (top menus are screwed up), and kmerlin won't connect |
| 19:39.02 | subdue | gaim works fine on the 5500 |
| 19:39.12 | Hhhhh | I couldn't figure out |
| 19:39.17 | subdue | as I mentioned before. go to the prompt and invoke it manually |
| 19:39.26 | subdue | it'll spell out what's needed |
| 19:39.30 | Hhhhh | I installed a bunch of packages, it runs but menus are empty, I can't start anything |
| 19:40.09 | Hhhhh | from CLI it says something about having libpng12_1.2.9 installed and wants 1.0.9, but I searched and couldn't find it |
| 19:40.20 | Hhhhh | sorry, 1.2.5 was installed, not 1.2.9 |
| 19:40.42 | Hhhhh | I installed 1.2.5 manually with other packages for gaim |
| 19:41.04 | Hhhhh | but CLI says something about a version mismatch, that it was originaly compiled with 1.0.9 |
| 19:41.33 | Hhhhh | any ideas? |
| 19:42.31 | subdue | yes. search the forums. most of my answers have been answered there when I was trying to get it to work |
| 19:46.25 | subdue | I suppose this might be what you want http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/feed/release/ |
| 19:46.30 | subdue | found via the forums |
| 19:47.35 | subdue | http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/qpe-gaim |
| 19:48.24 | subdue | you'll need to read deeper, as it's been a while since I installed gaim |
