05:45.07wpikuanyone know if it's possible (yet) to dual boot sharp rom and oz?
05:45.13wpikufor now it seems possible due to kernel differences
05:45.23wpikubut I was wondering if anyone is working on a grub clone or something like it for zaurus
05:45.48wpikuyou'd think you can just plop code for that where the original kernel is installed in flash or something
05:45.52wpikuI don't know how voodoo it all is
05:58.48wpikuI figured everyone would be sleeping ;)

13:44.03lardmanyou could kill the xserver & drop to the command line
13:46.32alan|homelardman: yeah, but the x server starts automigically...
13:47.04lardmankeep pressing ctrl-alt-del about 5 times
13:47.15lardmanit will eventually get bored of restarting and will stop
13:47.55btwotchlardman: where is ctrl-alt-del on the 5500 keyboard? I want also know, how to come to tty0...
13:48.28alan|homelardman: hehe ! cool ! thanks ^^
13:51.16lardmanbtwotch: no idea about the location on a 5500 keyboard I'm afraid
13:51.55lardmanbtwotch: Is tty0 a vt? If so, you can use the standard vt commands to change
13:54.26XorA|gonebtwotch: Calander Address + Del keys if I recall
13:56.38btwotchXorA|gone: del=fn+backspace???

14:26.57BroHi. I'm a bit new to zaurus, and I have a few questions.
14:27.51alan|homehi Bro ! maybe i can help you.
14:28.30BroOkay. Yesterday I flashed with 3.5.3 Opie.
14:28.46alan|homegood choice.
14:29.31BroYeah, I like it,. The Zuarus was a present. its a SL5500.
14:29.46BroAnd I was using the default Sharp system.
14:30.10BroAnd I used to access the Z from my Linux box via SMB.
14:30.45BroI realised that there was no SMB, NFS or FTP running on 3.5.3 so, how do I access it?
14:31.14alan|homeyou need to install required programms to do that. let me check.
14:31.39alan|homedo yopu have an internet access for your zaurus ?
14:32.42BroWell, I can see my Linux box from my Zaurus, meaning I can ping the thing and the thing can ping back.
14:33.28BroMy inet access is a dsl on my network. I haven't figured out how to get to the Internet...
14:33.41Bro(from the Z, I mean)
14:34.00alan|homeBro: what is your linux distribution ?
14:34.50BroA very customised Mandrake/mandriva with lots of stuff from other places.
14:35.43alan|homeBro: i use mandriva 2005. I did share the network access from the mandrake control center. it was pretty easy. I think you should try this.
14:37.02lardmanftp is probably running on your Z
14:37.12Broreally?
14:37.15BroLet me check
14:37.19lardmanshould be on port 4242
14:37.36lardmanIt's a cut-down version, used to sync with Intellisync
14:37.40alan|homeBro: on your zaurus, don't forget to set your mandrake box's IP as getaway, by the way...  
14:37.50lardmanYou could always use sftp/scp
14:38.41BroOkay. One sec
14:43.13BroOkay. The only port open the Zaurus is ssh. That should be enough. But, what's the password?
14:43.25lardmanthere is no password by default
14:43.37lardmanyou will probably need to set one though, otherwise it won;t let you connect
14:43.51BroBut I get: ssh 192.168.129.201
14:43.52Broroot@192.168.129.201's password:
14:43.52BroPermission denied, please try again.
14:44.21lardmanYes, and you try a blank password (which is root's password) and it decides that blank passwords aren't allowed
14:44.40BroSo?
14:44.47lardmanso set a root password
14:44.48BroWhat can I do?
14:44.53BroOf course.
14:44.59BroThanks, on sec.
14:44.59lardmanon the Z, drop to a terminal and use passwd... etc.
14:47.41BroBrilliant. Got it. Thanks. One more question...
14:48.25lardmango for it
14:48.33BroWhen I switch off the Z, I can't get it to come back on. I have to flip the battery switch and back to get it to come on again. Why?
14:48.45lardmanDodgy kernel
14:48.49lardmanyou need to upgrade it
14:48.54BroThis has only happened since I updated to 3.5.3
14:49.10lardmanyes, a bug crept in (or rather it escaped again)
14:49.20lardmanhang on, I'll find the link with instructions
14:49.24BroSo, should I get a CVS snapshot then.
14:49.50lardmanNo, that's not necessary - there;'s an updated kernel
14:49.51lardmanhttp://openzaurus.org/wordpress/2005/07/27/howto-get-r21-kernel-on-collie/
14:50.30lardmanyou need to upgrade the kernel modules before you flash
14:50.52BroUhu. Are the instructions on that page. I'm new...
14:50.57lardmanYes
14:51.17BroThanks. You have been ver so helpful. I really appreciate it.
14:51.32lardmanNo worries, always nice to help someone out
14:52.03lardmanWhen you try to upgrade the kernel modules, make sure you comment out all of the other feeds, otherwise you'll run out of space
14:52.38lardmanSee comment 14 (from me) and comment 15 which tells you what to add to /etc/ipkg.conf
14:53.10BroThanks. Brilliant. I'll be back later with some more dumb questions.
14:53.24lardmanI may not be here, but I'm sure someone will be about
14:54.12BroBye.

17:49.56PloujI wonder if the new zaurus will come down in price very soon
17:50.20Ploujso if I buy a c-1000 for 625 I'll essentially get a bad deal
17:50.27lardman£!?
17:50.39lardmanYeah, it will be a bad deal
17:50.40PloujUSDF
17:50.43lardmanah
17:50.44Plouj-F
17:52.49lardmanI've not kept up on the prices, but that is about the same as I bought my c750 for whenever that was
17:53.21Ploujyeah, doesn't look like the prices for them changed much
17:53.50lardmanI think the prices stay pretty static, then move down a notch when the new models come out, etc. - same with everything I suppose
17:53.53Ploujthis page just speculated that the price might drop now that shar re-introduced them
17:54.14Ploujman
17:54.20Ploujif it wasn't for the vga screen
17:54.31PloujI'd get an ipaq 5450 and install loonix on it
17:54.42lardmankeyboard is nice though
17:54.56lardmanI'm tempted by the Nokia 7700
17:55.02lardmans/7700/770
17:55.08Ploujis that out?
17:55.13lardman(even though it has no keyboard)
17:55.15lardmanno not yet
17:55.33lardmanshould be soon though, according to the release date, etc.
17:55.41Ploujhumm
17:55.44Ploujjust when I need a pda
17:56.00PloujI'd hate to be in a situation where I dish out a lot of money, and then prices drop
17:56.55lardmanWait a bit an see, they won't drop, you'll decide to go for it, then they'll drop
17:57.04lardmansod's law ;)
17:57.10Ploujwhos?
17:57.19Ploujwho's sod?
17:57.30lardmanMurphy's Law I suppose you'd say (if your American)
17:57.35Ploujheh
17:57.37Ploujindeed
17:58.04Ploujmaybe I should get an azim
17:58.06Ploujaxim*
17:58.14lardmanno Linux though afaik
17:58.25Ploujuse winCE until they port linucks to it
17:58.35Ploujthey have booted the kernel
17:58.41lardmanYou might be waiting a while though...?
17:58.49Ploujbut I won't be paying as much
17:58.54PloujI could save like 200 USD
17:59.19lardmanThey're that cheap are they?
18:00.00PloujCanadian Dell is selling it for 383USD
18:00.16lardmanNokia 770 is suppose to be ~$350
18:00.22Ploujhttp://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/DellAximX50Status
18:01.38PloujInglish is not my first language
18:01.42PloujLD
18:01.45Plouj:D*
18:01.54lardmanHmm, progress, but I wonder how long it'll take to become useable?
18:02.04Ploujhumm
18:02.08Ploujwell
18:02.15PloujI don't really need Linux per-se
18:02.30PloujI just want it because it has better sofware variety for no extra cost
18:02.40Ploujall I really need is a pdf reader, todo list, and a calendar
18:03.28lardmanPersonally I like the being able to hack at it, but I do occasionally want something which is hassle free
18:05.09lardmanRight, supper time, night
