There’s no simple way to install libphonon in the old & unsupported CentOs 5.4/REL 5.4…

Bon Voyage and good backport

Thanks for the feedback.

I noticed a similar problem when trying to adapt to the new packaging with Centos 6, which unlike C5 relies heavily on the Qt4 packages. I have some preliminary packages for 6 that include the updated libphonon that comes with the Qt toolkit, but I have not back-ported it to 5. I’m in the middle of moving 1200 miles (the truck is packed and leaves today) so it’s unlikely that I’ll get to it in the next 3-4 weeks, but I do plan to get back to it when I get settled on the other end, both to finish testing the C6 packages, and to backport the updated phonon to the C5 package structure.

Cheers.

First thanks to have done this RPMs you’re doing a great service to the Cent OS users

But I’ve a problem, my Qt WebKit based application requires libphonon, it should part of Qt or its 3rd party?
There’s a Cent OS 5.4/5.5 RPM containing it?

If is an optional part of Qt could you add, this?

Thanks,

I expect that something is wrong with the process you used to copy the image to the flash. Could you enlighten me as to your procedure?

I had iMedia Linux installed on my alix box, but was looking for something with better package management, etc. I flashed up my 2gb card with alix-centos-5.5-2gcf, but it won’t boot. I think I don’t have the right bootloader. The last bit that shows up before boot fails is:

01F0 Master 045A InnoDisk Corp. – iCF4000 2GB
Phys C/H/S 4063/16/63 Log C/H/S 1015/64/63
Loading iMedia …Error 17

Do I need to update the bootloader with GRUB or something like that? I followed the general directions for dd’ing the image, but that was apparently not enough.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I installed alix-centos-5.4-2gct on my Alix 3D3 system board but have not been able to login. I understand the password is password but what name is used to answer the “localhost login” prompt. So far I have not been able to install the alix-centos-5.5-2gcf software … all I get is the grub prompt and have not figured how to go beyond that. Thanks for all your work.

Sorry for the delay. They 32-bit packages are built and uploaded. Please give them a try and see how they work for you.

Thanks for the information! I don’t have any Alix with the vga, so I’m unable to test. I’ll put your comment into the main post.
