07:41.54radugatwo years before I got my zaurus
07:53.38Q_ContinuumI'm getting my first Zaurus on thursday :)
07:54.07mercwhat kind?
07:55.56Q_Continuuma 6000D
07:56.14Q_Continuumalthough he said it has integrated 802.11.
07:56.20Q_Continuumand according to one site, the D doesn't have that.
07:56.47Q_Continuumso I think he either messed up the model number, or it does and the site is incorrect, as he bought it for that capability, but never used it.
07:57.12merchrm
07:57.28merci think the D has 802.11, and the W has bluetooth also?
07:57.32mercim prolly wrong though
07:57.36subduel
07:57.37Q_Continuumyeah, I think so.
07:57.46Q_ContinuumOnly gonna cost me $450 :)
07:57.57mercsl-6000L has wireless, arr
07:58.02subduenot d
07:58.11merci have one, heh..
07:59.53Q_ContinuumD does not have wireless?
08:00.02*** join/#zaurus sigmaII (~ask@r200-125-17-127-dialup.adsl.anteldata.net.uy)
08:00.18Q_Continuumhmmm.  I'll give him a call tommorow then, but he said it's been in it's box for a few months, so he probably just forgot the model.
08:00.25Q_Continuumhas wireless, no bluetooth.
08:04.18Q_Continuumanyone know howto sync the address book with Moz suite/thunderbird?
08:11.33mercQ_Continuum: there was a guy on the forums that had a script or something to do that, it was under development.
08:13.20Q_Continuumokie.
08:14.01*** join/#zaurus kendrick (~kendrick@adsl-64-142-92-64.sonic.net)
08:14.38Q_Continuumworst case, I just run Outlook 2k3 or the included program, and export/import to say, a comma-delimited file or something.
08:16.33Q_ContinuumSo who's around that has a 6000 with the wireless?
08:16.36mercthat's something similar to the script the guy was working on..
08:16.37mercme
08:16.54Q_Continuumwhat's the signal strength like, pretty decent?
08:16.59Q_Continuumok, figured asmuch.
08:17.04Q_ContinuumI'd do it by hand if I had to.
08:17.21mercyeah, pretty good, i get wireless throughout my house, wireless router in the basement.
08:17.24Q_Continuumok
08:17.53Q_Continuumwhat's the battery life look like, w and w/out the wireless?
08:18.01mercnever done it w/o wireless, hehe
08:18.08Q_Continuumok, how long then? lol
08:18.17mercbut, pretty damn good, for having wireless, i cant give you an exact, but, prolly 2+ hours
08:18.32Q_Continuumoh - does it have like a 'standby' mode where it's "on" but sleeping, like say to kick off an alarm or something?
08:18.43Q_Continuumor would I just have to plug it in and leave it on?
08:18.54Q_Continuumtrying to figure out how I'll use it and so forth.
08:19.12Q_Continuumand what extras I'll have to get :)
08:19.28mercit has a standby mode, im not sure if an alarm will come on or anything though
08:19.50merci think it may even automatically sleep after x amount of non-use
08:20.00Q_Continuumok
08:20.10Q_Continuumyou got a second battery for it?
08:20.17Q_ContinuumI'm thinking I'll probably get one...
08:20.18mercnope
08:24.23Q_ContinuumWhat have you used the expansion card slots for so far?
08:27.41mercjust an sd card.
08:27.45mercim a broke ass college kid.
08:27.48mercheh
08:29.11Q_Continuumlol
08:29.13Q_ContinuumI am too.
08:29.17Q_Continuumyet I'm buying one.
08:29.29merclol, nice :)
08:29.45mercim waiting for openzaurus or another firmware to become more 6000 oriented/stable etc.
08:29.55mercthen ill prolly toss that on there, so it'll be just like a linux box :)
08:31.08Q_Continuumwhat's the big benefit to switching to the other firmware...?  is that like a new OS or distro in regards to the Zaurus?
08:32.18mercwell, the default zaurus rom is linux, but, its all...zaurus'y..with the tabs and stuff
08:32.29mercif you toss openzaurus on there, you can have X with fluxbox or whatever..
08:32.57merci'd read, im prolly partway wrong..you might be able to put X/fluxbox on the default rom.
08:33.23Q_Continuumok

17:50.43mohandasAnyone know where to download the Zaurus 5600 developer rootfs image? Sharp's website doesn't seem to have it anymore.

18:01.41radugadeveloper image?  
18:02.25radugaare you looking for the system recovery NAND backups, or a rootfs image intended for software development (with compilers, tools, etc)?
18:05.14mohandasIn order to customize the rootfs ROM image, I understand that one needs to run a special script (build.sh) that was included in a rootfs image distributed by Sharp. I have tried creating new images with mkfs.jffs2 (using the modified contents of existing ROM images), but the Zaurus can't seem to boot with them.
18:05.31kergothprobably using the wrong mkfs.jffs2 arguments.
18:07.51mohandaskergoth: what args should I be using? Apart from the little-endian option, I don't know what else I should be specifying.
18:08.05kergothit depends on the device.  5600? let me check

18:45.59mohandaskergoth: do you know if there are any mirrors of the Zaurus dev stuff that used to be on Sharp's website around?
18:49.00kergothnot that i know of
18:49.07kergothbut i havent paid close attention, since i never use sharp's stuff
18:49.24mohandasok
18:49.48mohandasdid you find the mkfs.jffs2 params for the 5600?
18:51.40kergothEXTRA_IMAGECMD_jffs2 = "--little-endian --eraseblock=0x4000 --pad --faketime -n"ยท
18:51.44kergothIMAGE_CMD_jffs2 = "mkfs.jffs2 --root=${IMAGE_ROOTFS} --output=${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${IMAGE_NAME}.rootfs.jffs2.bin ${EXTRA_IMAGECMD}"
18:51.49kergoththats out of OE's 5600 configuration file
18:52.10kergothso its mkfs.jffs2 --root=/path/to/rootfs --output=filename --little-endian --eraseblock=0x4000 --pad --faketime -n
18:53.23mohandaskergoth: thanks muchly..I'll give it a try
