similar to: Any Zaurus users??

Ah, but the interesting thing is that they are coming out with a 'clam' version like the 5MX. Details are limited at the moment, but that could mean the combination of 5MX usability with a supported linux distro. I am drooling in anticipation. Sounds like a "I've finally finished my PhD and deserve a treat" situation to me :) Dave On Thu, Mar 06, 2003 at 09:17:20AM

I'm working on a packaging of samba for OpenZaurus (http://openzaurus.sf.net). We build on an x86 system cross-compiling for the Zaurus systems (an ARM platform). The part that is giving me trouble is the code pages. Can I safely compile them with the make_smbcodepage and make_unicodemap on the x86 and then use them on the ARM? Or are the platform dependent? Is there anyway I can shrink

Hello All, I have a working port of R on my SL5500. I've not tested the X windowing support yet, but was more concerned about the accuracy of the fp emulation. The following is the result of the test which Stuart Leask recommended I should try: Mandrake 8.2 > x<-NA > is.na(x) [1] TRUE > x+1 [1] NA > 2*x [1] NA Zaurus OZ3 > x<-NA > is.na(x) [1] TRUE > x+1 [1] 1

Dear All, I have a working (in so far as NAs are handled correctly) version of R running on the Zaurus. The problem was not ieee 754 compliance but rather the fact that the configure script did not realise that the Z had a bigendian processor. I'll post a link, etc. tomorrow on the Zaurus forum for those who may be interested (http://www.zaurus.com/dev/board/) in downloading a copy.

For what it is worth, here are my experiences. When I first got my zaurus I compiled R version 1.4.0 for the it. It took some time to do, but managed with the skiffclusters at familiar.org. (libf2c was the hardest part). Compilation should be easier now that there are onboard compilers but I haven't tried. I thought this would be neat to have in the classroom. (It did get one student to buy

Hi All, I've recently dusted off my cross-compiling hat and decided to add R to the OpenEmbedded build environment (this is used to build the OpenZaurus/Familiar distributions for the Zaurus/iPAQ amongst other things - I note there's also work underway to add the Psion 5mx etc. to OpenEmbedded). OpenEmbedded builds now use -soft-float which makes floating point operations something like

Hello, has anyone tried to get R running on a Sharp Zaurus 5500?

Does anyone know if SIP will/is support on handheld PCs such as the iPaq or Axiom? With their integrated 802.11b and Bluetooth it seems like a solution to provide a wireless based sip phone for any user would be possible. Handoff between access points might be problematic but most users I know would be using their PDA phone in an airport with free wireless or at the local cafe, etc, etc... Can

Hello All, I read in the archives that someone managed to compile R but that there were problems with the fp performance, specifically the handling of NaNs. Could someone please explain the problem to me and how to test whether it is occurring. I have just compiled R for the Zaurus 5500, and want to see whether it works or requires tweaking. Regards, Simon

Can PDAs be used as softphones/clients on asterisk? what i wanted to do is to set up 2 PDAs as softphone(client) which allows them to communicate each other through asterisk server(desktop) devices i have: pda compaq model 3680 pda sharp sl5500 access point desktop(asterisk) can i apply my idea on the asterisk? any guides? thanks in advance :) --------------------------------- Do

I'm using rsync to mirror my Sharp SL-5500 Linux PDA home directory to my Linux desktop over a TCP/IP-on-USB link. I'm running the following command as root on the 5500: /home/QtPalmtop/bin/rsync -av /home/zaurus \ 192.168.129.1::zaurus I'm running the rsync server out of xinetd. I have verified with 'ps' that the server, when it starts, is running as root. The files are

Hello All, A bit of a long one (background mainly), this is really just a request for some ideas. I ported R 1.7.x for use on the Sharp Zaurus (& iPAQ, simpad, yopy, etc.) some time ago and have just ported 1.8.1 but had never quite realised that you actually need to install some packages to make the system useful (I don't use R, I did it as a favour and of course for the fun of it). I

Hello All, The link to the binary & installation instructions (tar.gz binary not an ipk I'm afraid) is as follows: http://students.bath.ac.uk/enpsgp/Zaurus/#R It eventually dawned on me that the WORDS_BIGENDIAN define (or lack thereof) was causing the problems (after testing ieee NaN compliance that is). When cross-compiling it's probably fair enough that the configure script

Is it possible for two PDA's to communicate like telephones via SIP channels on a PC running Asterisk? If that is possible, does there exist any applications that can be installed on a Zaurus 5600, which is a PDA with an Xscale processor running on a Linux OS, that can essentially turn it into a softphone? Thanks in advance for any input, Daniel

Here's a list of non-PC hardware I found that supports Vorbis, with links and short descriptions. It's still kind of rough, and I don't have personal experience with any of these things, though where noted, I have gotten email from the company. This is still just a draft. I've made links, and also left the URLs after the headings so it converts to text well. Following the

Or rather - the ogg123 seems to run faster than the oggenc. Based on the vorbis toots 1.0_1,3 I've got (on freebsd) a small streaming server which essentially takes the oss/vox audion input; uses the code from oggenc to make a stream and then a bit of apache 2.0 to dole that stream out over TCP to various clients: setup oss /dev/dspW0.0 16 bit stereo 44k1. create ogg/vorbis

Is theora based on Floating Point or Integer. I haven't looked at it much, but would like to help make sure it runs on other architectures ok. (especially: StrongARM (Zaurus) and DEC Alphas) Also as of now how efficient is the player compared to mpeg4? Aside from constant rewrite (as theora changes), why would someone not want to write a plugin to test it? Just new to theora, and

I like the vorbis.com site, and it was my first contact with Vorbis. Hardware support has never been hugely important to me, but the perceived lack of hardware support keeps many people from using Vorbis. I think there should be a list of Vorbis-supporting hardware right on vorbis.com. There are already a few non-PC devices that can play Vorbis (DP-450 DVD player, Zaurus, Palm), as well as
