Flashed fine.
Attempted to set default font to larger size and was unable to run
the console. So it’s back at a 7 point font that’s completely
illegible for anyone over 40.
Attempted to run route commands that worked with 3.5.2 and get
device not found error. Will look at website to see if I did
something before that.
No, doing what the website says in the order I’m sure I did it last
time is not establishing USB connectivity. Ping is hanging and ssh is
saying:
ssh: connect to host zink port 22: No route to host
So I guess it’s busted, since I can’t read the console on the
zaurus and I can’t log in from the desktop. I’m trying to log a bug
on the console, but I’m having trouble reproducing the problem — now
it isn’t crashing, but it also isn’t changing the font. Update: it crashes if you change the font in the
default Settings => Appearance, but just ignores it if you do it in
the terminal settings.
I’ll see if the mailing list can help.
Update, May 12: No response from the mailing list.
I have to decide which distro to reflash from before I finish the
gothic romance novel (Mary Stewart’s “The Ivy Tree”) I’m reading and
want to get back to the Trollope Parliamentary novels. It looks like
going back to theKompany makes more sense than going back to OZ
3.5.2. TheKompany doesn’t work as well in landscape as OZ does, but
I don’t do that very often, and I think if I had Opera working
(theoretically possible on OZ but I never managed it) I would actually use
browsing. Also, being able to contribute the the OZ project pretty
much requires running the current version, so going back to 3.5.2
isn’t going to accomplish that.
