Hello 4 all Psion netBook users from Germany.
|
||||
|
||||
German variant of Psion netBook OS image was distributed without source of OPL toolbar.
|
||||
All other language variant of OS image has included this file.
|
||||
|
||||
So, I patched this file separately and included to this archive.
|
||||
If you're an OPL developer, you can copy toolbar source from this archive to your Psion.

ABSTRACT
|
||||
Article describe about some bugs in actual Psion netBook operating system. In article is published cumulative bug fix patch and explained method how fixing this bugs against actual Psion netBook OS image file ver. 1.05 (rel.158). If someone use another language variant of image file than is in support list and needs my patches for your language variant of OS.IMG file, please contact me and I try prepare patch file for your language variant.
|
||||
|
||||
MOTIVATION
|
||||
I was Psion 5mx owner from 2001. I upgraded to netBook at end of 2003. After some happy days with my new machine I find that last Psion netBook OS.IMG file (rel.158) have absolutely apparent bugs (wrong or greyscale icons, bad OPL toolbar and etc...). I assume that properly testing from times of Protea Bill Batchelor’s beta tester team, new Psion’s Teklogix team not done. It was sad but true. Maybe final build of OS image was made in hurry and without deep beta testing.
|
||||
I begin fix this bugs especially for me. Later, I present this bug fix to other people. Omega (osg) (another member of Patisoners team) convinces me for releasing my bug fixes for all netBook users. So, I make it now.
|
||||
This cumulative patch file is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but without any warranty. Otherwise, I use patched OS image about several months without problems. Basically, I was created this cumulative patch file primary for myself, but if you want use it too.
|
||||
|
||||
RESULTS
|
||||
Actual patch file fix this bugs and issues of original Psion netBook OS image file (Rel.158):
|
||||
|
||||
* Wrong OPL Toolbar main battery status icon (toolbar.opo and toolbar source). (bug fix)
|
||||
* Shell stretch icons in 4 grey colour mode only. (bug fix)
|
||||
* Wrong InstApp.aif icons and caption. (bug fix)
|
||||
* EikConsole text selection bug. (bug fix)
|
||||
* Backup battery status visible on OPL Toolbar (toolbar.opo and toolbar source). (improvement)
|
||||
* Colour EikConsole support. (improvement)
|
||||
* Visible Z: drive (RomDrive) in shell listbox. (improvement)
|
||||
|
||||
More about all netBook OS image bugs and bug fixes you can read next articles in near future.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
HOW APPLY PATCH
|
||||
This patch directly modified binary file of OS.IMG, so you need download this image before patching. You also need installed bpatch tool, and patch file (typically *.dif) file. If you don't know how use bpatch tool, please read bpatch tool article.
|
||||
|
||||
Actual Psion netBook OS.IMG file you can download here.
|
||||
Actual Psion MalayBook (mBook) OS.IMG you can download here.
|
||||
|
||||
Actual GNU bpatch tool for many platforms (Windoze, Linux, Epoc, EpocEmx) and with sources you can download here.
|
||||
|
||||
Actual patch file for NB_450UK.IMG (or other os image) you can download here.
|
||||
|
||||
Step-by-step procedure is:
|
||||
1) Download and install GNU bpatch tool file archive, for your operation system.
|
||||
2) Download and unzip my cumulative patch file archive.
|
||||
3) Download original Psion's OS image file archive.
|
||||
4) Unzip all files from original Psion's image zip archive.

1) Installation of Optional Components
|
||||
|
||||
In some versions certain components are included separately to the OS.
|
||||
To install these optional components, connect the netBook to your PC in
|
||||
the usual manner, extract each SIS file from the zip file (for the exact
|
||||
procedure please see the instructions with your zip application).
|
||||
Open the SIS file to automatically load the application onto the netBook.
|
||||
Should you have problems with the above, verify the following:
|
||||
The netBook is turned on.
|
||||
PsiWin is installed correctly.
|
||||
The netBook is correctly connected to the PC.
|
||||
Alternatively, the SIS files may be copied directly to the netBook
|
||||
(using PsiWin) and opened from there.

1. Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
This is an OS image for the Psion netBook. These notes cover download
|
||||
and installation as well as improvements and new features.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Installation
|
||||
|
||||
* Prior to installation, you should back up all data from your netBook.
|
||||
(This installation procedure will erase all data that is not
|
||||
on CompactFlash)
|
||||
|
||||
* It will not be possible to restore your internet and modem connection
|
||||
details. Make a note of these.
|
||||
|
||||
* You will need a CompactFlash card with sufficent (approx 14MB) free
|
||||
space, and with no OS.IMG file in the default folder.
|
||||
|
||||
* It is recommended to install the OS with a fully charged
|
||||
main battery.
|
||||
|
||||
* Download the zipped OS from Teklogix website (you may have already done this.)
|
||||
|
||||
* Save the file to your local hard drive. (Psion recommends the
|
||||
My Documents folder)
|
||||
|
||||
* Open the zip file (your browser may provide this option, otherwise open
|
||||
directly from your My Documents folder.)
|
||||
If this does not work, you may not have a zip application installed.
|
||||
WinZip (a shareware program not affiliated with or endorsed by Psion)
|
||||
is available for the PC from www.winzip.com
|
||||
|
||||
* Extract the OS Image file to the CompactFlash card. This may be
|
||||
performed with PsiWin and a Psion netBook or with a separate
|
||||
CompactFlash cardreader.
|
||||
|
||||
* Rename the OS Image on the CompactFlash card to OS.IMG (The file as
|
||||
supplied is named according to language and version number.) This must
|
||||
be performed using directly on the netBook. (Click the Epoc logo to bring
|
||||
up the system application, click bottom left on the screen to select the
|
||||
D drive [it will probably say C initially], then select the image file
|
||||
and choose menu, file, rename... Type OS.IMG as the new filename, and
|
||||
press return)
|
||||
|
||||
* The next stages will remove all saved and unsaved data from your
|
||||
netBook. It is essential to back up any data that you wish to preserve.
|
||||
(Note: data on CompactFlash cards is not affected.)
|
||||
|
||||
* Switch off the netBook.
|
||||
|
||||
* Remove the backup battery, then the main battery, and then the power supply
|
||||
from the netBook. (Note: this should be performed in the order suggested
|
||||
to reduce drain on the backup battery).
|
||||
|
||||
* After waiting 15 seconds, replace the main battery and then the
|
||||
backup battery (and optionally the power supply.)
|
||||
(Note: this should be performed in the order suggested to reduce drain
|
||||
on the backup battery).
|
||||
|
||||
* Switch on the netBook, and when prompted insert the CompactFlash card
|
||||
with the new OS image. The netBook will copy the image into
|
||||
internal memory, and when this is complete the new OS is
|
||||
installed and the CompactFlash card may be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* See Restoration from Backup, below
|
||||
|
||||
3. Installation of Optional Components
|
||||
In some versions certain components are included separately to the OS.
|
||||
To install these optional components, connect the netBook to your PC in
|
||||
the usual manner, extract each SIS file from the zip file (for the exact
|
||||
procedure please see the instructions with your zip application).
|
||||
Open the SIS file to automatically load the application onto the netBook.
|
||||
Should you have problems with the above, verify the following:
|
||||
The netBook is turned on.
|
||||
PsiWin is installed correctly.
|
||||
The netBook is correctly connected to the PC.
|
||||
Alternatively, the SIS files may be copied directly to the netBook
|
||||
(using PsiWin) and opened from there.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Restoration from Backup
|
||||
This details the procedure for restoring from a backup previously made
|
||||
with PsiWin.
|
||||
This procedure may be skipped (and backup restored in the usual way)
|
||||
only if you are certain that the previous OS already had Ethernet support.
|
||||
If in doubt, please follow these instructions.
|
||||

3. Installation of Optional Components
|
||||
In some versions certain components are included separately to the OS.
|
||||
To install these optional components, connect the netBook to your PC in
|
||||
the usual manner, extract each SIS file from the zip file (for the exact
|
||||
procedure please see the instructions with your zip application).
|
||||
Open the SIS file to automatically load the application onto the netBook.
|
||||
Should you have problems with the above, verify the following:
|
||||
The netBook is turned on.
|
||||
PsiWin is installed correctly.
|
||||
The netBook is correctly connected to the PC.
|
||||
Alternatively, the SIS files may be copied directly to the netBook
|
||||
(using PsiWin) and opened from there.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Restoration from Backup
|
||||
This details the procedure for restoring from a backup previously made
|
||||
with PsiWin.
|
||||
This procedure may be skipped (and backup restored in the usual way)
|
||||
only if you are certain that the previous OS already had Ethernet support.
|
||||
If in doubt, please follow these instructions.
|
||||
Follow the Installation instructions above
|
||||
(you may already have done this)
|
||||
Go to System (press the lower left icon on your netBook screen,
|
||||
with the Epoc logo)
|
||||
Press Menu, select "Tools", then "Preferences..."
|
||||
Ensure that "Show System Folder" is ticked.
|
||||
Press Return
|
||||
Browse to System\Data:
|
||||
If C is not showing in the bottom left of the screen,
|
||||
click there and select the C Drive.
|
||||
Double click "Close" (top left folder) as many times as
|
||||
necessary, until Documents and System folders are showing.
|
||||
Double click "System"
|
||||
Double click "Data"
|
||||
Select commsdb.dat
|
||||
Press Menu, File, Rename...
|
||||
Type in commsdb.tmp and then press Return.
|
||||
Restore your backed up files using PsiWin in the usual way.
|
||||
Browse to System\Data (as above)
|
||||
Select commsdb.dat
|
||||
Press Delete and select "Yes".
|
||||
(This will delete the out of date commsdb.dat from your backup)
|
||||
Select commsdb.tmp
|
||||
Press Menu, File, Rename...
|
||||
Type in commsdb.dat and then press Return.
|
||||
This stage is necessary to remove your out of date commsdb.dat settings.
|
||||
You can now restore your internet and ethernet settings from your notes,
|
||||
using the Control Panel.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Note: If you inadvertently failed to follow these instructions during
|
||||
initial installation, certain internet and ethernet applications may
|
||||
be unstable. Should this be the case, please follow these
|
||||
recovery instructions:
|
||||
Make a note of your internet, modem, and ethernet settings.
|
||||
Go to System (press the lower left icon on your netBook screen,
|
||||
with the Epoc logo)
|
||||
Press Menu, select "Tools", then "Preferences"
|
||||
Ensure that "Show System Folder" is ticked.
|
||||
Press Return
|
||||
Browse to System\Data:
|
||||
If C is not showing in the bottom left of the screen,
|
||||
click there and select the C Drive.
|
||||
Double click "Close" (top left folder) as many times as
|
||||
necessary, until Documents and System folders are showing.
|
||||
Double click "System"
|
||||
Double click "Data"
|
||||
Select commsdb.dat, and press Delete, then "Yes".
|
||||
This will remove the incorrect settings, and you can now restore your
|
||||
internet and ethernet settings from your notes (using Control Panel.)
|
||||
Alternatively, fully reinstall the OS as detailed above.
|
||||
|
||||

7. Known Issues
|
||||
If you have problems using Ethernet or any internet application, and
|
||||
you have restored a previous backup since updating the OS, please check
|
||||
the procedure under "Restoration from Backup" above.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible that your netBook may occasionally appear to be unresponsive
|
||||
when using certain Modem PC Cards. Should this happen please eject
|
||||
and replace your Modem PC Card, and repeat the connection process.
|
||||
|
||||
nFTP may very occasionally abort (with an eSock error) while initially
|
||||
connecting to an FTP server. This will not lose any data in the NetBook,
|
||||
and nFTP may be safely restarted.
