Hello all. Does anybody have a URL to instructions on how to restore a Z2 from OpenZipit back to the origional factory application? I have the origional backup kernel, but I have had no luck in DD/flashing it back to internal rom. |
| [00:45:07] |
<nettech> |
nettech42@ydl.net is my email if anyone has any suggestions. |

ray, I'm on your blog |
| [14:31:00] |
<Stacker2> |
looking at yyour tutorial :-) |
| [14:31:15] |
<Stacker2> |
I think I'm the onel one that got a Z2 in Europe :-) |
| [14:31:25] |
<Stacker2> |
onlyy one* |
| [14:32:42] |
<Ray_Haque> |
:-D |
| [14:33:15] |
<Stacker2> |
I'm trying to understand if |
| [14:33:15] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Does EU use the same wifi frequency ranges? |
| [14:33:30] |
<Stacker2> |
mmm...I think so, as far as it works :-) |
| [14:33:36] |
<Stacker2> |
well I should check |
| [14:33:52] |
<Stacker2> |
unfortunately the Z2 has not the CE logo so |
| [14:34:05] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Hey, nice. I think we are all pretty much the same with wireless except for Japan for whatever reason. |
| [14:34:09] |
<Stacker2> |
I was just able to get one from ebay in a sort of "black market" |
| [14:34:17] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
the US has channels 1-11 |
| [14:34:22] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
the EU has channels 1-13 |
| [14:34:26] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
Japan has channels 1-14 |
| [14:34:41] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
you can do the appropriate frequency conversions on your own |
| [14:34:48] |
<Stacker2> |
but it works :-) |
| [14:34:54] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
yes, it will work |
| [14:35:23] |
<Stacker2> |
how can I change the freq? |
| [14:35:31] |
<Stacker2> |
is it possible by software? |
| [14:35:33] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
by changing the channel... |

| [14:37:13] |
<Stacker2> |
is it a software tweak? |
| [14:39:01] |
<Stacker2> |
considering that I'm still trying to understand how to run something from the Improved Z2 Shell ... :-( |
| [14:39:17] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
http://wirelessdefence.org/Contents/LinuxWirelessCommands.htm#iwconfig%20Commands |
| [14:39:36] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
remember that your router should be running on the same channel, you'll need to look that up yourself as it varies from router to router |
| [14:39:45] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
if you don't know what you're doing, leave the zipit on auto |
| [14:40:14] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
i don't mean to sound like a jackass saying that |
| [14:40:17] |
<Stacker2> |
is Zipit on auto b default? |
| [14:40:22] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
yes |
| [14:40:26] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
or it should be, anyway |
| [14:40:34] |
<Stacker2> |
so it's better to leave it like this ;-) |
| [14:40:38] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
yes |
| [14:40:56] |
<Stacker2> |
I was wondering, in the Improved Z2 Shell |
| [14:41:02] |
<Stacker2> |
is there any software integrated |
| [14:41:07] |
<Stacker2> |
I mean, is the IRC inside too? |
| [14:41:57] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
irssi should be installed according to the documentation |
| [14:42:13] |
<Stacker2> |
ouch |
| [14:42:24] |
<Stacker2> |
so it's all about linux command line work |
| [14:42:44] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
well, that's what a shell is... |
| [14:43:05] |
<Stacker2> |
I just know the shell since I had to use it on hackintosh |
| [14:43:48] |
<Stacker2> |
does exist a xvid player that works on Iz2S also? |
| [14:45:51] |
<Limp_Trizkit> |
not entirely sure |
| [14:46:23] |
<Stacker2> |
mmm I think I need to reset with a pin to load from sd |
| [14:47:55] |
<Stacker2> |
I'm getting so problem with the zipit, it doesn't turn off when it's logged into MyFriendz :-/ |
| [14:49:09] |
<Stacker2> |
hope is nothing about batter |
| [14:49:16] |
<Stacker2> |
battery* |
| [14:51:40] |
<Stacker2> |
mmm, no ways, it doent's load from SD :-( |

Stacker2: Is the Zipit recognizing the SD card when you insert it while running the stock OS? |
| [15:25:54] |
<Stacker2> |
yes |
| [15:26:07] |
<Stacker2> |
its say thath e found SD |
| [15:26:12] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Hrm. What size is it? |
| [15:26:16] |
<Stacker2> |
2GB |
| [15:27:00] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Are you trying to boot IZ2S? |
| [15:27:05] |
<Stacker2> |
yes |
| [15:27:34] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Did you copy everything from the zip file to the *root* of the SD card? |
| [15:27:41] |
<Stacker2> |
yes |
| [15:27:59] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Ah, did you shut *completely* down from the stock OS? |
| [15:28:07] |
<Stacker2> |
bin, home, etc ...all in the root |
| [15:28:24] |
<Stacker2> |
I resetted and removed the battery |
| [15:28:33] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Hrm. That should do it. |
| [15:28:57] |
<Ray_Haque> |
When you boot, it should be looking for that sh fie. |
| [15:29:02] |
<Stacker2> |
the worst problem is that zipit never shut down once it logged into msn *_* |
| [15:29:08] |
<Stacker2> |
I must always reset it |
| [15:29:25] |
<Ray_Haque> |
There are many bugs with the stock OS. :-) |
| [15:29:45] |
<Stacker2> |
but reset nee a pin :-D |
| [15:30:12] |

I must fit a pin on the keyboard |

finallY I had to reset tuning on the password protection |
| [15:32:15] |
<Stacker2> |
then restart it and writing "ZIPIT" |
| [15:32:17] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Stacker2: Did you by chance try to make changes to the script? |
| [15:32:46] |
<Stacker2> |
nono, it's working now, the problem was dad I had to reset with the "ZIPIT" password trick |
| [15:33:08] |
<Stacker2> |
and it's impossible if it doesn't make the soft-off |
| [15:33:20] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Ah! I have never used those features. ;-) |
| [15:33:34] |
<Stacker2> |
it's the only way to really reset myy zipit |
| [15:33:39] |
<Stacker2> |
wonder why *_* |
| [15:33:41] |
<Ray_Haque> |
I should put something about that in the FAQ. |
| [15:34:02] |
<Stacker2> |
you must turn the password on in the tool settings |
| [15:34:13] |
<Stacker2> |
then you must turn off the Z2 |
| [15:34:32] |
<Stacker2> |
then when ou turn it on you must write "ZIPIT" in capital as pasword and it resets for real |
| [15:35:11] |
<Stacker2> |
but as far as my Z2 doesn't turn off normally and I had to reset it doesn't store the "turn password check on" :-( |
| [15:36:51] |
<Stacker2> |
*obtaining an IP adress ... |
| [15:37:55] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Stacker2: If it hangs there for a long time, you may need to push-pin reset it. |
| [15:38:21] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Stacker2: It could indicate a typo in your wifi settings, or a stubborn/uncooperative access point. |
| [15:38:43] |
<Stacker2> |
my fault |
| [15:38:51] |
<Stacker2> |
wrong wifi name inserted :-D |
| [15:40:51] |
<Stacker2> |
ouch, it's not loading the SD again :-( |
| [15:41:00] |
<Stacker2> |
It enters stright in the first boot wizard |
| [15:41:09] |
<Stacker2> |
straight* |
| [15:43:36] |
<Ray_Haque> |
wow. You are having all sorts of problems. |
| [15:43:49] |
<Ray_Haque> |
I never have trouble booting off my SD card. |
| [15:44:04] |
<Ray_Haque> |
I wonder if it's having trouble reading it or something? |
| [15:45:16] |
<Stacker2> |
"Mini SD card inserted, Database Ready" |
| [15:47:44] |
<Stacker2> |
do an USB charger exist? |
| [15:51:15] |
<Stacker2> |
so, after the reset I had to skip the wizard by: |
| [15:51:52] |
<Stacker2> |
choose manually network clicking "next"->click on HOME->tools->set default |
| [15:52:02] |
<Stacker2> |
after the soft reboot it works :-D |
| [15:53:19] |
<Ray_Haque> |
I just had a frenchman set me straight on SDL compilation errors. |
| [15:53:31] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Now I can get back to work on a few packages I was playing with. Hooray! |
| [15:54:08] |
<Stacker2> |
which ones? :-) |

Right now, I am working on getting a super nes and a gameboy advance emulator working. |
| [15:55:51] |
<Stacker2> |
cool |
| [15:56:02] |
<Stacker2> |
super nes is 320x240? |
| [15:59:00] |
<Stacker2> |
mmm it asks for WPA passphrase, but I have WEP... :-/ |
| [16:04:37] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Yeah, I need to work on that script. |
| [16:04:42] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Try leaving it empty. |
| [16:04:52] |
<Ray_Haque> |
No wait, fill it in. |
| [16:05:14] |
<Ray_Haque> |
wpa_supplicant should determine the connection type based on your key size. |

Hrm. You may be better off saying "no" to network support at boot time, and then try messing with iwconfig. |
| [16:14:51] |
<Stacker2> |
the problem is that I'm not so into linux command line |

Stacker2: If you do a iwconfig -h you will get a list of options. The "interface" is eth0. |
| [16:20:47] |
<Ray_Haque> |
You will want to first do a iwconfig eth0 essid <access point name> |
| [16:21:17] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Then I suppose you would do iwconfig eth0 key <wep key> |
| [16:21:44] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Then .. you would try to obtain an ip with udhcpc |
| [16:22:03] |
<Stacker2> |
ok |
| [16:25:23] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Looks like the Zipit doesnt have enough free memory to run the visual gameboy emu. |

"SET failed on device eth0 ; Connection refused." |
| [16:29:24] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Your access point doesn't like you. :-) |
| [16:29:32] |
<Ray_Haque> |
Try iwlist eth0 scan |
| [16:29:56] |
<Ray_Haque> |
And make sure you are entering your ESSID exactly how it shows up (upper/lowecase letters and all). |
| [16:33:27] |
<Stacker2> |
done |
| [16:33:45] |
