Re: [QtMoko] chinese character support
Is there any way to enable chinese character support in QtMoko? I mean for reading SMS.. display of filenames.. etc.. OK.. I learned that if I .. apt-get install ttf-wqy-zenhei cp /usr/share/fonts/truetype/wqy/wqy-zenhei.ttf /opt/qtmoko/lib/fonts/ and reboot (or maybe just restart qpe, I can display chinese characters.. in Textedit.. and also in the file lists.. so that works.. maybe even pinyin predictive keyboard? (would look into that if it's possible to do.. ;)) Another thing is the pinyin keyboard that is in the sources.. but not put in the image.. where do I trigger that? currently I'm in the middle of getting things ready for a QtMoko translation into zh_CN.. (thanks to my wife) I would really love to contribute here.. but need help.. ;) Cheers, -- Thomas ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Hi Alexandros, Well, it seems good, the freerunner regonizes the card and loads the kernel. The kernel panic is as expected, there is just a kernel on the card and no distro yet. Could you try to install the root files system from [2] ? After you installed it make sure to install the kernel in /boot as uImage-GTA02.bin and add the /boot/append-GTA02. (you could make a tar file before installing the rootfs) in cut and paste style: mkdir /tmp/mpt mount /dev/sde1 /tmp/mpt cd /tmp/mpt tar -czf /tmp/old_boot.tgz ./boot tar -xzvpf /the/downloaded/qtmoko-debian-v31.tar.gz tar -xzvpf /tmp/old_boot.tgz cd / umount /tmp/mpt eject /dev/sde put the card in the freerunner and boot using qi That should give you a working distro. Please let us know any success/failure!
