| 00:37.26 | pzak50mit | hi...I was just installing familiar on my iPAQ 3870 and I got stuck while installing the bootloader |
| 00:37.40 | pzak50mit | its stuck on "Protecting Wince Partitions..." |
| 00:37.43 | pzak50mit | any suggestions? |
| 00:39.03 | jcole | pzak50mit: good luck, this room is pretty dead |
| 00:39.35 | pzak50mit | ok, thanks. |
| 00:41.56 | jcole | pzak50mit: i've been in and out of this room for 2 weeks and have never got a response, lol |
| 00:42.17 | pzak50mit | You kidding? I wonder why everyone is on here |
| 00:42.25 | pzak50mit | are you having trouble as well? |
| 00:43.53 | jcole | pzak50mit: i'm having trouble with familiar 0.8.3 ... it's missing many packages ... apache, beepmp, bitchx, ddclient, didiwiki, fbvncserver, file-roller, ffmpeg, firefox, gaim-spellcheck, gedit, gkdial, gpdf, gpe-appmgr, i have an older ipaq that had these installed from an old version of familiar - apache, beepmp, bitchx, ddclient, didiwiki, fbvncserver, file-roller, ffmpeg, firefox, gaim-spellcheck, gkdial, gpdf, inkscape, less, linphone |
| 00:43.54 | jcole | , snes9x, streamripper, stunnel, tightvnc-viewer, unzip, vim, wvdial, xchat, xine, zip, etc. (lots more packages) |
| 00:44.46 | jcole | pzak50mit: that's the latest version of familiar and it's the only one that runs on my ipaq ... i don't know what to do |
| 00:45.18 | jcole | pzak50mit: my handheld is more useful with wince on it |
| 00:45.27 | pzak50mit | well I wish I could help, but this is the first time I've used any linux on a handheld |
| 00:46.00 | pzak50mit | seems funny....win + useful in the same sentence |
| 00:46.10 | jcole | pzak50mit: i'm at the point where i'm asking around to install debian on it |
| 00:47.04 | jcole | pzak50mit: then i could install any of the ~20,000 packages already in debian |
| 00:47.32 | jcole | pzak50mit: it seems that the familiar team re-invented the wheel and created their own process |
| 00:48.35 | pzak50mit | yea? I wasn't even aware of a debian distro for handhelds |
| 00:49.05 | jcole | debian runs on many architectures, including arm |
| 00:49.41 | jcole | problem is, if a developer hasn't compiled debian to your handheld, your on your own |
| 00:50.08 | pzak50mit | yea |
| 00:50.44 | jcole | linux on handhelds appear to be a big mess right now |
| 00:50.57 | pzak50mit | hopefully that will change soon |
| 00:50.58 | jcole | i give up |
| 00:51.22 | pzak50mit | It'd be nice to see something other than windows running on smartphone and pocketPC |
| 00:51.28 | pzak50mit | or symbian |
| 00:52.00 | pzak50mit | its just that among devices there are so many tiny differences |
