iLiad binary compatible to Zaurus?!
Well, after an unsussesful trial some days ago I today tried again to find a Zaurus console application which runs on the iLiad. And I was finally successful. :-)
I took the Zaurus armutils (http://www.elsix.org/index.php?w=project&p=481), unpacked them into a directory on my sd-card and tried some of them: Quote:

Mp3!
Well cool, just read your thread and thought, well that's worth a try...
So googled a little, and found a nice mp3-app for Zaurus... copied it to the Iliad ipkg'ed it into my favourite testing directory... and taadaaa it's working! So for those who can't wait to have Mp3-Player functionality I recommend the MadPlay Mp3 Player Finally SOUND Greets Kris |

Well dunno,
i'm not that much of a Linux-Geek to be able to answer that... But what harm can do a little testing as long as it's reversible |

Now what's missing is a nice Interface, maybe one could modify a matchbox-panel that way... just read some documentation, but unfortunately nothing that told me howto to acomplish such task... Can't be that difficult I guess... |

I killed the matchbox panel and started it with different arguments to see what happens. But actually before modifying file I would really like to be able to make an image of the whole thing. There must be a way to do it...

first is an archive to play with Code:
ssh root@192.168.1.100 'tar -cf - /' > iliad.tar Code:

one can only hope they have something in the backhand, which is similar to the system used on the Zauri. Wasn't their flash/update program hidden in the flash, where a user couldn't accidently kill or reach it?

I heard that there is a Java VM for the Zaurus. Does that mean that the same VM could also work on the iLiad?
I haven't got mine yet (and even if, I wouldn't know how to do it), so could someone try the VM on the iLiad? |

Possibly, there is another thread about Java where this is answered in more depth:

I konw about that thread, since I started it, but as far as I know the zaurus has not been mentioned in it yet, though jeode was mentioned I think. Thanks anyway.

I think that the Jeode VM needs Qtopia to run. But maybe it will work with JamVM: http://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php...=19626&hl=java Could someone who is not worried about installing software give it a try? |
