It was originally designed for handheld computers (such as the Compaq/HP iPAQ and the Sharp Zaurus), but could probably function well in other environments requiring a light GUI, such as an old laptop, or an internet kiosk. It is based upon QT/Embedded from Trolltech, which is in turn a graphical environment designed for embedded applications, based upon the QT toolkit. </para> <para> Opie has been designed for devices with small screens, and a touchscreen input -device (ie, only one mouse click, and no constant mouse position), as well as +device (ie, only one mouse click, and no constant mouse position), as well as designed to fit in a relatively small amount of storage space (about 5 megabytes for the base libraries and the launcher). </para> </chapter> <chapter><title>Installation</title> <section><title>iPAQ</title> <para> To install opie on an iPAQ, you will need a fresh Familiar installation (ie, install Familiar, and stop before you do ipkg install task-complete or ipkg install task-x), go to http://familiar.handhelds.org to get the latest version, and to get installation instructions (again, stop after the initial boot and do not install X, as it is not necessary, and will only take up space). </para> <note> <para> If you had qpe/qtopia installed previously, <emphasis>completely</emphasis> remove it, and remove the src line for it from your /etc/ipkg.conf file before attempting to install opie. </para> </note> <para> Once you have Familiar installed, set up a network connection between your iPAQ and the ouside world (again, see the Familiar site for instructions on this), and then run this command: <informalexample> <literallayout> echo src opie "http://131.152.105.154/feeds/ipaq/unstable/" \ >> /etc/ipkg.conf </literallayout> </informalexample> then, run: <informalexample> <literallayout> ipkg update && ipkg install task-opie </literallayout> </informalexample> If you have a 3100 or 3800 series iPAQ, run: <informalexample> <literallayout> ipkg install qt-embedded-rotation </literallayout> </informalexample> finally, start Opie with: <informalexample> <literallayout> /etc/init.d/opie start </literallayout> |
