Yes i know. I will on my next image expand it to 256MB. I have allready done that for other devices.
yeah i did exactly like that! and it gives me this error:
Code:
Cannot open /dev/mmc/blk0/discI need this one: http://opie.handhelds.org/gallery/main.php/v/opie12/console.png.html
is this opie 1.2 or Opie II ??
i need desktop like environment like i see in this screenshot
i need the same runtime as qtopia did (i ran it successfully but it is much like OPENMOKO and i like win mobile more than that kinda environment
)plz help how can i first get my card partitioned??
dying to run linux on my uni (though i need unique desktop environment)
Edit:
i got opie 1.2 running by just renaming the opie bz2 file with qtopia one
rite now it is copying from tarball to imgfs file
hope i get it working now

own kernel booting
I tried it with gpe on 2nd partition and it worked!
I think for getting opie working we must somehow rotate the screen.

Re. battery life
Is this change in the 2.6.21-hh20 kernel? I've installed the kernel from http://www.linuxtogo.org/~htcpxa/htcuniversal/images/Qtopia/ and my battery level is dropping 10% every hour on standby, even with AT+CFUN=0.
Update: I built a kernel from handhelds.org CVS, and it has the same problem.
Resolved: Forced the wifi module to power down (modprobe htcuniversal_acx; modprobe acx; rmmod acx).
I let my universal running last evening over the night and this morning the battery meter hadent even dropped.
So now, we are even closer

Sluggish keyboard after suspend
Is anyone working on the sluggish-keyboard-after-suspend problem? With the battery life fixed, it's my only remaining issue.
It's more usable if I turn the key autorepeat off, but it's impossible to type quickly. The mainline pxa27x_keypad.c doesn't seem to be any better.

Thats right, there are major leak in the htcuniversal_acx driver. It is fixed but not pulled mainstream yet.
Thank You
I wanted to say thanks to goxboxlive for all your hard work. I am currently a Sharp Zaurus (C1000) user and I bought a T-Mobile MDA Pro in hopes of having to use one less device. Unfortunately after getting OpenMoko and QTopia running on my MDA Pro (1Gig SD card good, 2Gig SD card bad) I have to say that it isn't quite there yet. But I know it will get there eventually because there are some good people working on it, and the MDA Pro (AKA HTC Universal) is some damn fine hardware.
Anyway, besides saying thanks I wanted to ask what the best way to be notified when you release a new image? I am not a linux newbie and I would be happy to help test new versions.

Re: Sluggish keyboard after suspend
The sluggish keyboard problem is caused by the KPKDI (key debounce) register getting reset to the default 100ms when the machine is suspended. WM must set it to a lower value.
If the keyboard is annoying anyone else, grab devmem2 from http://wiki.neilandtheresa.co.uk/Titchy_Linux?action=AttachFile and run:
devmem2 0x41500048 byte 0x20
Caution: devmem2 writes directly to RAM, and can break stuff.
I'd like to patch the kernel, but I'm having some problems with the handhelds.org CVS source (/dev/ttyS0 doesn't work - am I doing something wrong?). goxboxlive: would you be able to share your kernel source?

Hmm. i'll check the wince value. We need to modify the pxa27x_keyboard driver to support
DKIN anyway.
Look at the 'dmesg' output after trying 'cat /dev/ttyS0'. If you'd like to patch something,
post the patch here, or use #htc-linux at freenode.
Re: Sluggish keyboard after suspend
The value set by WM is 0x20 (32 milliseconds).
I'll check dmesg tonight. Using devmem2 is fine for now, and I don't have any other reason to build my own kernel at the moment.

}Yes, we should probably save and restore KPKDI over suspend like it's done in

when should we expect a new release here http://www.linuxtogo.org/~htcpxa/htcuniversal/index.html ?
Thanks

I have updated the handhelds.org CVS to save and restor the KPKDI values over suspend/resume
NON-WWE support?
Hi EB!
I've a simple question:
I read in the Readme from the openmoko .cab file, that this cab file is only for WWE devices.
Is it an old readme, or it is true, and I have to change my original WM5 GERMAN ROM to a WWE ROM?
PLeasE answer me, I want to keep my original ROM!
THX!

I solved it:
With WinCE CAB MANAGER I edited the English path (Program Files) to the German one (Programme).
It is fully functional.

what is the Task id of the bug?, I can't find it in the Task Tracker from Trolltech.
Thanks

Yes i understand that, but does it work now? Can you boot Linux on your Universal?
Beware og that you need to have the kernel, startup and haret on the fat partition and not at the ext3 partition. And try to make the ext3 partition smaller than 1GB.
I am using all this on a 128MB sd card. 30 MB for fat, and the rest for ext3.2ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Universal/Universal LINUX Dev
Has anyone looked into the following folder:

I think this is a funniest post in this forummadkat said:. Nobody in my life have ever asked me for this.
Now, here's a new market - below are things we could make money from:
1. Change superuser's name from "root" to "Administrator" - $20.
2. Change superuser's name from "root" to anything you like - $50.
WTF? I wasn't asking someone else to do it for me.
I was asking because I don't know much about Linux - but I have renamed the Administrator account in my WinXP Pro to something else to make the machine more secure. I don't think I've seen a Linux or Unix box with a superuser with a name other than "root" - so I decided to ask, rather than making any assumption that making the change would be impossible. Obviously if this Linux were sent out in an easy-to-install form, questions to the end user would be very brief and most would opt to enter no root password at all. That leaves you with machines all over the place with a superuser called "root" and either no password or a very simple password like "123" or "password". I don't know about you, but that strikes me as a very bad idea. Setting a default password is out of the question, and having a "strong password check" will only serve to frustrate people.
