Re: Squeak on Zaurus 5500SLFrom what I am finding out, the Zaurus 5500SL =
is a different machine than the one Yoshiki Ohshima's instructions work =
for.
I did get Squeak running on my Zaurus with Dynapad using the =
instructions found at:
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/2930
and some help from the squeak-dev list
I was pleasantly surprised to find that this version actually has =
morphic running. I wasn't expecting that.
Now I will have to learn the gesture interface so that I can bring up =
halos using a stylus, etc.
Who'da thought you could actually graphically program on a handheld =
computer.
Thanks,
Doug Mair

Yoshiki Ohshima has this running. He can tell you more.

I bought a Zaurus 5500 and am now trying to get Squeak running on =
it.
I checked out the DirectFB Zaurus page on the swiki.
The problem is that I don't know Linux (Unix) at all. I'm a windows =
programmer with a strong DOS background.
I copied the following files into the CF card of the Zaurus:
squeak, dynapad-r01.image, dynapad-r01.changes
I then booted into the OS and moved to the correct directory on the =
Zaurus:
mnt/cf/Documents/application/octet-stream
The Linux ls command showed all of the files that I expected.
When I try the command shown on the page:
squeak -calibrate -rotate -memory 10m dynapad-r01.image
I get the following error:
squeak not found.
I also tried:
squeak -calibrate -rotate -memory 10m Squeak.image
and got the same error.
I seem to remember (from my college days using Unix) that I have to =
set up a file as executable before I try to execute it.
I would appreciate more specific directions about Squeak on Zaurus =
5500 or Linux OS commands.
Thanks,
Doug Mair
