I'm working on documenting the process of getting a Plazes launcher application working on my Linux-based Sharp Zaurus PDA. These instructions need some work, but they should get you started.

Target Hardware

cURL

Assuming you have an OpenSSH server running on your Zaurus:

  1. Download zlib
  2. scp zlib1_1.1.4_arm.ipk [zaurususer]@[zaurushost]:/home/zaurus/Documents
  3. Install the package using the Zaurus Add/Remove Software application.
  4. Download cURL to your local PC.
  5. gunzip curl-7.10.8-arm.tar.gz
  6. scp usr/bin/curl [zaurususer]@[zaurushost]:/usr/bin
  7. scp usr/lib/* [zaurususer]@[zaurushost]:/usr/lib


OpenSSL

  1. Download OpenSSL
  2. scp openssl_0.9.7c_arm.ipk [zaurususer]@[zaurushost]:/home/zaurus/Documents
  3. Install the package using the Zaurus Add/Remove Software application.


Settings for BashLauncher

Grab the BashLauncher.sh shell script (wget can be useful here), and edit the defaults as follows:

  1. Set OS="linux"
  2. Set OPENSSL="/home/QtPalmtop/bin/openssl"
  3. Set CUT="/usr/bin/cut"

Then upload the configured BashLauncher.sh to /home/zaurus on your Zaurus, SSH to the Zaurus, and make the script executable:

chmod +x BashLauncher.sh

and run:

./BashLauncher.sh
