XMMS/GAIM working on IA-1 (modified 0 times) thinker Profile Hello- I've managed to get XMMS and GAIM working with the IA-1. It works pretty well. I have photos of it running xmms below. I'll have pictures of it with gaim if you really want it. =P http://thinker.falcons2000.com/ia1/ 01-06-2002 02:58:47

RE:XMMS/GAIM working on IA-1 (modified 0 times) erroneus Profile Congratulations! You're successful! :) I guess it's time I got off my duff and stopped waiting for things to "stablize" a bit more than they are. I've been waiting for the next Rasmus image. :) Additionally, I've been waiting for someone to decode a method for applying the MSNCv2 updates without having to use the modem. :) Guess I'll just back up with Dolly and press forward. I hope Rasmus can integrate a more stable browser into the confined 16MB CF so that I can use it as a web terminal in addition to a network MP3 player. :) 01-06-2002 04:35:45

RE:XMMS/GAIM working on IA-1 (modified 0 times) RatBastard Profile Did you put it in / or in one of the cramfs partitions? I tried something similar with Opera (axing Netscape) but was unsuccessful re-integrating the new cramfs into the image. Care to put a paragraph or two on your increasingly-useful webpage on how you did this? Congrats! 01-06-2002 10:44:53

RE:XMMS/GAIM working on IA-1 (modified 0 times) thinker Profile Hehehe... I cheated... Both gaim and xmms are located on a NFS mounted partition. =D I have my IA-1 on a dedicated subnet with a one-version-behind Slackware Linux 7.1 box. The Linux box is hosting NFS. I'm using 7.1 instead of 8.0 because it uses glibc 2.1 -- the version of libc mandrake 6.1 was based off of. I have yet to master the art of rebuilding cramfs images, so I'm still working on that. It would be possible to have both gaim and xmms on there after I tear out that PoS email client.... 01-06-2002 11:07:53

RE:XMMS/GAIM working on IA-1 (modified 0 times) RatBastard Profile Cool. I tried that, too, actually. I wasn't able to get it to see the libraries it needed. Same problem with Opera. Did you just modify the PATH or did you do something else? 01-06-2002 11:33:13

RE:XMMS/GAIM working on IA-1 (modified 0 times) thinker Profile I cheated on that, too. =D I have /usr/lib on my slackware box mounted on /mnt/lib on the IA-1. I've updated the ld.so.conf with the new path and updated the cache. It's worked pretty well thus far. Yay. :) 01-06-2002 12:52:38
