Re: zaurus turns off when picogui running

sorry for answering so late, but i managed to destroy my buildroot, so i 
had to get that up and running again first.

it seems to have something to do with the things you suggested.
what i did first is commenting out all timers in timer.c that had 
something to do with switching off the zaurus or the screen of the 
zaurus and now the problem is gone. i hadn`t time till now to figure out 
the problem more exactly. (debugging with making an image and flashing 
is a pain...but i guess you know that! :) )
i `ll try to get more into the problem, but maybe something comes to 
your mind where the error could be, since you know the hole system 
better than me.

thx for the hints, anyway.

BTW: how to stop a running pgserver on the zaurus? i tried Fn+C and such 
things but none of them worked.

oh, another (i guess maybe more zaurus related question): when pressing 
the On/Off Key longer, the zaurus switches off, but i`m not able to 
switch it on again. when running the normal openzaurus under opie you 
can turn on and off the zaurus as you like. is there a setting to be 
made somewhere or a special apmd command or something to enable this 
behaviour?


thx, greets, peter
