Home / Other I-Appliances / 3Com Audrey ICQ Working ICQ copied over from 6.0

ICQ Working (modified 0 times) sartori Profile Hi all, Managed to copy ICQ over to my audrey (image here http://www.dominions.com/icq.jpg ) One interesting note that I don't know if it has been brought up but .qpr (package files) are really .gz files :) On my windows machine i renamed the phICQ.qpr file to phicq.zip and just unzipped it from there. Appologies if this has already been said. If someone is hosting files i can upload the phICQ file to you. Also if anyone feels creative and would like to make some icons for ICQ that would be appreciated. Sartori 09-13-2001 17:16:35

RE:ICQ Working (modified 1 times) keith721 Profile sartori: check out harper's site at http://www.audreyhacking.com and his file download page at http://www.audreyhacking.com/files if it's not already there, email it to harper@nata2.org, asking him to post it... keith721 09-13-2001 17:47:13

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) keith721 Profile whoa . . . don't click on that link in my previous message from your audrey . . . she just goes off into the ether (literally) due to the improper backslash. my apologies for the error. http://www.audreyhacking.com/files 09-13-2001 17:51:47

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) larsomatic Profile This is funny. I was just working on this today. Good work! 09-13-2001 18:37:46

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) larsomatic Profile In case someone wonders where to find PHICQ http://qnx.tucows.com/preview/175415.html 09-13-2001 18:47:35

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Not a proper site really but if you send me the file I will stick it up for now, just stuck the nfs stuff up :o/ tholmes@speakeasy.org 09-13-2001 19:34:45

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) larsomatic Profile I downloaded the PHICQ file from tucows, but I have not been able to uncompress it. I tried changing the filed extension to .zip and .gz and winzip did not like the file. I put it on my linux box and tried the same thing there. No luck.. Chiliblue - are those nfs files 6.0 or 6.1? 09-13-2001 20:49:19

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Those files are 100% 6.1 sadly.. When I installed 6 , it wasn't much fun it seems to have really issues with that system, photon bail out, but on a quick look about only the fs-nfs2 file existed and non of the related libs. I talked to some folks on the #qnx developers channel and they seemed to think that the nfs wasn't actually working in 6. I would be happy to have another attempt at getting 6 up and working, and maybe trying to compile some things in, however in qnx I have failed to compile anything more compicated than wget... Bitchx and its Baim plug in seem a long way off :o( 09-14-2001 08:14:52

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Ok I have stuck the phicq binary up too, I used gunzip to unzip it and I haven't tested it so...on your own with this one, be nice if someone can report back if it works http://chili.homeip.net/audrey/ 09-14-2001 08:38:21

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) larsomatic Profile Chiliblue - I emailed you the fs-nfs2 file from 6.0. I have not gotten it to work yet. Thanks for hosing the phicq file. I moved the phicq file to my audrey(/nto/photon/bin) and chmod +x'ed the file. Then I tried to run it from a config (root) pterm window: # phicq /nto/photon/bin/phicq: syntax error: ')' unexpected does that mean anything to anyone :) 09-14-2001 09:08:58

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Thanks for that.. I have added them in and sepparted qnx6 from qnx6.1 so you know what you are getting same url http://chili.homeip.net/audrey/ 09-14-2001 09:19:38

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Larsomatic... I have solved your mystery...your problem with that file was the fact I am a jack ass!!! The file I got when I gunzipped the qpr package was infact no binary, it was a tar with 4 tar.gz files in it. Notice to those that what to disect qpr package files, if in linux make them .gz then gunzip them, then make them .tar and tar xvf them, if you try to change them to .tar.gz and tar zxvf them it doesn't work...sure someone will know why but this is working for me Now I do have the full files all extracted in qnx6.1 directory structure, and would be happy to share those files about although you can just down load and extract the package for your self. They have one file pertaining to the shelf app...which you don't need as it is a plugin and only required for those running shelf. The issue as I see it is the lack of audreys libc.so.1 lib...I can't find it on there anywhere. For now on my server I have stuck the full libc.so.1 and the bins of phicq and phirc. Its my feeling if we can get phicq working then we can have phirc too space allowing. As for the other required lib's they are all there. I have a nice text file that lists the bin and libs in / /nto and /nto/photon I'll stick that up too http://chili.homeip.net/audrey/ 09-14-2001 14:26:21

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) larsomatic Profile I am not home from work to test this yet. Did you get phicq working? Which directories do you install the files? I have a pretty extensive FAQ on a bunch of differnt feature that I need to post for people. I will do this fairly soon. 09-14-2001 14:34:31

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile If you do have time and have phirc and phicq grab the binaries for them at the same time. They may be the same but it might be worth md5sum checking them against the ones in 6.1 to see if they are the same. As for the other file for phicq they are only .wav files for the events. Cheers 09-14-2001 14:51:32

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) larsomatic Profile Tell me which files you want and I will grab them. 09-14-2001 15:00:30

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile phirc and phicq and libc.so.1 you can hunt them down or if you are feeling very lazy.. find / | grep filename Thanks 09-14-2001 15:18:20

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) sartori Profile I didn't seem to have these problems - I just copied over the phICQ file (1 singe file) to the audrey, chmod +x it and run it - I did install the mp3 player so maybe I got some of the missing files from there.One thing I did notice is the default sounds are not there (easy enough to replace I think though). Also I didn't get my phICQ from tucows - if you have a qnx6.0 install that works correctly (i.e. packacge manager) put in this repository information :: http://www.joher.com/repository It has phICQ, phIRC, PhAster, & phFTP. These might be 6.0 versions because they all worked without any modification. (phFTP opens in a window too large for audrey and I'm not sure how to change it.) Sartori 09-14-2001 16:47:08

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) sartori Profile Also, Once you get it working, make sure you set 'Keep Main Window In Front' under the configuration. I had fun when icq kept hinding behind the audrey programs every time I tried to do something. Sartori 09-14-2001 16:54:17

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Any chance of your file, if it works it would be great to have tholmes@speakeasy.org 09-14-2001 19:02:01

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) larsomatic Profile OK! now I have ICQ working. Whoo hoo. Quick how to: - If this does not work, please install the files for mp3 player, then follow these instructions again. I am to understand that the libraries used for the mp3 player are the same for phICQ. - Sacrafice two ceremonial chickens to the audrey gods. Perferably fat healthy ones. - Download the file phicq from http://chili.homeip.net/audrey/. - Ftp the file to your audrey and put it into /nto/photon/bin. - chmod +x phicq - To run the app, type /nto/photon/bin/phicq That's it. 09-14-2001 22:05:42

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Yes it works I can confirm that got it working here, well the app runs and you can get online and send messages..haven't recieved one back yet but I will try that later. The Sound preferences allow you to set your own sounds so I would expect that you could use the set of audrey sounds already installedd just fine. the file is http://chili.homeip.net/audrey/files_from_qnx6_1/phirc the phirc.tar is the package from tucows gunzipped it is tar containing more files that would need to be gunzipped and then tarred...the only thing of interest in them are the phirc wav files and the binary of phicq itself...basically unless you want to fiddle around don't bother with this file. Boy phicq is a big'un at only 1mb I was suprised to see my memory full O meter swing from 50% to 75%, wish there was some way of adding more memory to audrey. 09-15-2001 07:18:04

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) keith721 Profile chiliblue: don't forget that fs-cifs network mount paths are valid in your $PATH and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables. (i remember, you have to use samba from linux, no windoze there ;^) jayklm uses this method to share mp3 and other files from his desktop machine. no reason why you can't do it with java, is there? just a thought... keith721 09-15-2001 09:34:19

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile yes Keith I have smb working giving me access to mp3 file etc, and I am sure you could even symbolically link in binaries etc and run them on the audrey off the samba share. I maygive that a go today if I have time. Ok tried it with phirc. Really though getting that compact flash into action as usable local storage would be the way forward for me. Chili 09-15-2001 10:00:38

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile opps hadn't finished what I was saying, yes I tried it with phirc..no it didn't work but then no one has phirc working on the audrey to my knowledge so I don't think it is the end of the world, it did delay slightly showing it was accessing the file over the network and then threw out a bunch of app related errors finishing with a memory error. I ain't got time to fiddle today but for those that want to get is a go and ain't Nix types, here is what to do. !) make sure your smb share is mounted on the audrey. /nto/bin/fs-cifs -a //host:ip:/share /mountpoint guest guest 2) make sure the file you want to try has the correct permisions on the share in this case "keyboard" it has to be excutable. chmod +x /mountpoint/keyboard 3) Making the symbolic link is simple enough and as the link has the same permissions as the file it is linked to if the target file is executable so is the link. now for the link ln -s /mountpoint/keyboard /nto/photon/bin/keyboard In theory keyboard should be brought up now from the pterm with keyboard or /nto/photon/keyboard don't be alarmed however if the app takes slightly longer to come up than when it is run directly from the system storage. If all goes wrong, you can delete the link as you would a normal file rm /nto/photon/keyboard the actual file on the share will remain untouched. Does feel a little odd running apps over smb but I did once run quake2 on my I-opener that way... 09-15-2001 10:24:35

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Keith_D Profile FYI, I've been running all kinds of stuff off an fs-cifs mount of my win98 shared drive... ***including .so files***. When I was writing the onscreen keyboard I was originally using QNX 6.1 (because of the naming problems with the 6.0 ISO image). The only thing I had to copy onto the audrey was ldqnx.so.2. Everything else (libph.so.2, libAp.so.2) I left on a windows shared drive and just made ln -sP links to it from the audrey. Sincs libph.so.2 is about 1.5Mb it would take about 5-10 seconds for my little 27K keyboard app to startup though. Hence I became determined to get a working 6.0 environment. 09-15-2001 13:41:42

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Well there you go, ironically I have your keyboard app installed and have never run it over smb. I choose for the example your app because it was small and written entirely with the Audrey in mind, fantastic app by the way. The thing is I didn't even consider symlinking bin and libs over purely because I had thought I wouldn't run out of space, so hope I didn't annoy anyone by stating the obvious or something. 09-15-2001 14:29:01

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) dslrules Profile now if only GAIM would work - I want AIM!! =) thanks for getting ICQ working 09-15-2001 16:39:36

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) ultra1911 Profile I got ICQ working using NFS too:D First question, anyone knows where it saves the data? I did a cold reboot and it remembered all settings and stuff. Second question, running icq as "phicq &" from shell, I can't seem to launch any other applications through the buttons, will this be corrected if I launch phicq from the audrey options or channel? Thanks 09-16-2001 00:37:28

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) hw_irq Profile As per Chiliblue's request......ICQ Buttons: I took mr23's procedure for adding "ICQ" button to the Options menu. (1) Get new button files The button graphics are at: http://www.duke.edu/~hep/pictures/icq_button.gif http://www.duke.edu/~hep/pictures/icq_button_activated.gif I will ask "weber" to move the files to his public FTP server. I will post an update when the FTP server is ready. For now, you'll have to download the files to a local box and run your own FTP server to transfer the files to Audrey. I used WAR-FTPD 1.65 (Released as copyrighted FREEWARE by Jarle Aase - You don't need to register or pay in order to use this program. Get the latest version at http://www.jgaa.com ) (2) Start a shell Fire up the browser and go to "http://localhost/shell.shtml?pterm" (3) In the shell, type "cd /kojak/img/eng/config" (without quotes) (4) From there FTP to your box and download the two files: icq_button.gif icq_button_activated.gif (5) Then, type "vi /kojak/SystemPanel.init" to edit the System Panel config. Go to the line that reads: #end of list And type the following: <O> # That capital letter 'O' - enter Open Mode in a new line above current line ,icq_button.gif,launch,/nto/photon/bin/phicq <snap shot> # Exit open mode <:> # Preface to command <w> # will tell vi to write the buffer <q> # will tell vi to quit <enter> # will have vi actually execute the two previous commands Now, if you hit the "Action" button and select "Audrey Options", you should have two new buttons. 09-17-2001 00:00:28

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Weber Profile Ok, since people still seem to be respecting the public ftp I will be keeping it up and I have recently added the icq buttons. So keep on enjoying the use of the public ftp server [ftp dot digitalplace dot org]. Weber 09-17-2001 08:51:06

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile Thanks for the icq buttons! hw_irq 09-17-2001 08:58:23

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) Chiliblue Profile I am sure people have worked this out, but icq and a bunch of other apps store their config files in /nto/photon/.ph So if you have tried and failed running phirc you will find some files regarding its config in there. You would think that would make that the ~/ but I still can't get the NeuIRC to find its files going on what I have seen in qnx6.1 NeuIRC should store its stuff in ~/.neuirc well it don't work in /nto/photon/.neuirc :o( 09-17-2001 09:12:29

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) chaz_ Profile | Email Hi guys. Got phicq working from a w2k share, but when I start it (from the shell - root -), I get a bunch of errors like: "unknown symbol: PtTimer". Any ideas? also, does anyone have the .wav files handy? would save us the trouble of making new ones... Thanks, Chaz 11-11-2001 21:53:55

RE:ICQ Working (modified 0 times) dumars Profile | Email so, it's been mentioned in another phicq thread that phicq has trouble connecting now because of the server side config changes in server name and port used for login? is phicq basically dead for now or are there people that still have it running properly? 04-27-2002 15:59:58
