[Xmms-embedded-users] Installing issues

[Joe G. <jg...@jo...>]

List,
Im rather new to my Zaurus, but I use XMMS on my Linux system. Im having a
problem installing the new release I downloaded from the web site.

Here is my problem.

I download it and try to use the installer from the desktop and even
though it is placed in the correct location, it is not visible as an
option to install. Ok, so I copy it to the Zaurus and again, it is not
visible from the add/remove programs. I then try to install it from ipkg
and get this error:

unexpected end of fime
ERROR: unpacking control.tar.gz from xmms-e_0.00005-1_arm.ipk

Is this a corrupt package. I have downloaded it several times. Maybe a bad
file on the server?

Thanks

Hi!

I am afraid you are trying to use it on the stock sharp rom.
That unfortunatelly won't work. 
I probably won't make it run on the sharp rom, as I would need to
reflash for that - and that rom is bleeding from many wounds anyway.

bye

Well, I have the newest ROM update 2.38. Does this one work with it?

Thanks

Hi!

Not out of the box - that's the stock rom.
