Sharp seems to go out of their way to annoy people who want to use the console, on the 7x0 they even broke scrolling in the default kernel. > Do you know the Sharp ROM terminal command for bringing up the network, > or what is run at startup (after a reboot) that starts CF network > cards?

I don't know, either try running "cardctl resume", or editing the appropriate file in /etc/pcmcia/* to make the card start powered up. If anyone reading this knows how to do this, please say so - I've had several people report this but nobody confirming which fix works for which card. > How simple would it be for me to make it so Rotate rotates the screen > clockwise instead of counterclockwise?

Not easy, it's hardcoded in the source code and would require significant reengineering of the scaling and drawing code. I was meaning to fix that, but it was never a priority so far due to lack of time. > What kind of environment are you developing in? Do you cross-compile > from your linux desktop?

Another issue that I can't fix due to lack of feedback from people who got it working, and I don't have the time to experiment. > apt-get/dpkg RAM shortage - this is actually a pretty huge > inconvenience, unfortunately, since the 5600 only has 32megs of RAM. That should not be such a big problem - do you have memory dedicated to a RAM disk? If so please change to a ROM that doesn't do that. > Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on > /dev/root 22.0M 21.3M 768.0k 97% / What's /dev/root really?

Swapping onto flash media is a bad idea, it's incredibly slow and will wear out the flash chips much faster than a filesystem. > Does the IceWM configuration on -base-v0.17 take up less RAM than > -big-?

I'm running the "ratpoison" WM on my C750, which is about as minimal as you can get. -Klaus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
