Indeed there was. I forgot to append the parser output instead I overwrote

Now it is much much better. But unfortunately still not 100% correct.

At least one link/keyword points to the wrong article.
I found the problem with the Walt Kelly keyword which points to a jpeg
file article.

I suppose if we skip articles we have to also remove them from the index?
I will investigate this, but I have little time and my python foo is weak.

Fwd: [Shr-User] ANNOUNCE: new shr-testing image

2009-12-04 Thread Thomas Zimmermann

--  Weitergeleitete Nachricht  --

Betreff: [Shr-User] ANNOUNCE: new shr-testing image
Datum: Freitag 04 Dezember 2009
Von: Sebastian Spaeth sebast...@sspaeth.de
An: SHR-user shr-u...@lists.shr-project.org, SHR-devel shr-
de...@lists.shr-project.org

After a long fight with our SHR buildhost, I finally managed it:

I created a new shr-testing image which is supposed to do the following:

- always give you a working phone
- care about opkg upgrade'ability
- Be conservative in the number of cool on-the-edge features it takes

I expect that upgrades will hapen every 3-4 weeks or so. I will try to
upgrade things to a working set of revisions. All testing that I can
promise will be restricted to shr-lite-image things (there will be a
full image soon, but I haven't tested things there). I can also not test
GPRS (not using it).

Get it here:
http://build.shr-project.org/shr-testing

Upgrading from a current shr-unstable might or might not work (I have
not tested that). I forked off on November 30 or so, and I haven't
tested whether a lot of packages would need downgrading from -unstable.

Install it, set your root password manually (if you care about ssh
login) and you should be good to go. Installing on NAND, you will see
tons of error messages pass by on the 1st boot, that seems normal and
will go away after some time (1st boot takes longer!).

If you want to help out:
http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/shr-testing2009
is a page with my commit policy. (it's flexible though) :-)

Bug reports agains shr-testing (via trac) are welcome too.

Building for SHR - toolchain?

2009-12-04 Thread EdorFaus
Hi,

I've been building a couple of packages for the FR, mostly with SHR-U in mind 
(since that's what I've been using myself). Note that I haven't upgraded to 
the latest SHR-U yet, due to it apparently having some issues (it's my main 
phone), and due to a lack of time on my part (work has gotten busy)...

Now, one of the packages is for someone else's programs (sgt-puzzles), that 
I'm really just building for the phone. The other is a launcher for them, 
which I wrote using elementary.

With the latest SHR-U image, I've had reports of the latter not being 
installable, due to the elementary dependency - looking into it, there's 
apparently been some renaming of the library packages going on. I figured this 
should be fairly easy to fix, just modify my dependencies... However, the 
library soname has apparently also changed (due to upstream, I hear), meaning 
I have to relink the executable specifically for the new libs (unless the 
packagers of elementary would deign to include symlinks for the old soname?).

My problem is, I can't figure out how to do this properly.

I've been using the OM toolchain, since it was easy to use as a 3rd-party 
maintainer/developer - just unpack it once, then call the env setup and build 
my program when needed (installing lib packages as needed).
Packaging for installation is similarly easy, with ipkg-build.

With the library rename though, I apparently need a new toolchain, since SHR-U 
is now different from OM (the old library soname is not present, and my pkg-
config doesn't know the new one).

However, everything I've managed to find about building programs for SHR seems 
to talk about first building an image of SHR, or something like that - which 
seems like total overkill and not something I really want to do, since I don't 
want an image of my own, I just want my program to work on SHR - which to me 
seems more likely if I avoid making my own version/build/whatever of it...
I have no real interest in doing development on the SHR apps (they're 
generally over my head, and my time is limited), and just want to build and 
package my own small apps so that they work on the phone (which pretty much 
means SHR-U for me).

So, my question is, does a toolchain similar to the OM one exist for SHR[-U]?
If so, where can I get it?
If not, how should I do things? Is building SHR really the best way?

Best wishes,
Frode Austvik

 I have similar problems getting wifi to work on SHR-U. In my case I get
 an address and configure the interface via dhcp, but can not establish
 any traffic to the interface. In one case I could ping a host but the
 transit time was enormous.

 The other thing I note from ifconfig is ridiculous RX and TX values,
 almost 1TB on an interface I never have used. Looks to me like a bug
 somewhere in the driver code.

Hi BillK,
your response motivated me to look at the latest shr-u image as I
was using one from mid November. Thought I'd best update it even thought
I'm sort of happy with what I've got at present. I do want to use wifi
for a demo so off we go. I grabbed the shr-u kernel from 29th of
November and the lite rootfs from 30th. Bit of a WTF moment there when I
failed to find any wifi antenna setting in Settings/Connectivity where
 I'm used to seeing it. Decided that I'd just enable the eth0 interface
with an ifup but get told that interface don't exist.

Maybe I leaped too far forward in time. Have you any recommendations as
to which version to use? I might go back a version and see how I get on.
Maybe I should be using the full root-fs but I only want the basics at
present.

I did in the mean time discover coova-chilli for the first time. That
one slipped under my radar, like a good many other things. I'll go back
in time but if you've any advice on a good image let me know.

[wikireader] Support for other keyboard layouts

2009-12-04 Thread Tim Besard
Hi all,

Since I live in Belgium where the QWERTY keyboards aren't used that
much, I had a look at supporting other layouts for the on-screen
keyboard. The current code however seemed quite statically supporting a
single layout, so I spent some time separating the QWERTY-based code to
a single header, and replaced the code-generating Python tool to
generate all layout-specific code (instead of only a part of that code).
The attached patch adds and defaults to an AZERTY-based layout.

As I didn't (and still don't) know whether the devs plans to add some
run-time configuration wizard, I separated the code but made the layout
choice to be by including azerty.h instead of qwerty.h in the keyboard.c
source file.

I'm using it for some days now, apart from some 1 pixel mismatches
(which also are present at the default layout) it works pretty well. As
I saw some posts about generating a French wiki I guessed it might come
in handy for some :)

-Tim

PS. this message might appear once more somewhere in the future, as I already 
posted it some days ago which failed due to the attachment size (hence the 
bzip2-compression).

 Ever since I saw that the SHR feeds didn't get updated for a while I

 For me the usage of opimd for contacts is the nicest new feature. It has a
  VCF backend, so I could just scp my Kaddressbook contacts over to the FR
  and have all my contacts available. nice!

I'm using the latest testing image (4/12/2009) and I'm wondering where in the 
filesystem I have to put my vcf contacts. I'm having trouble installing pisi, 
and it actually isn't worth the trouble if I can just use your method. I just 
can't find out where I have to put my vcf.

Thanks in advance.

 
 Graphic speed felt a little slower though, and the interfacing with FSO was
  broken in some places, like the power management. Also the power button
  didn't bring up the popup menu. But these are all findings of a few weeks
  back, so most will probably be long fixed already.
 
 Thanks again, looking forward to the next stable unstable release of SHR!

  Datum: Sonntag 01 November 2009
  Von: Sebastian Spaeth sebast...@sspaeth.de

  Hi all, for those of you few that do not live 24/7 in IRC land, here is
  a not-so-brief update on what is happening in SHR land. No, we are not
  all dead :).
 
  There are a couple of major transitions that have slowed down new images
  or indeed any updates in the SHR feed. Let me try to sum up a few and  I
  am sure others will chime in and list whatever I have forgotten:
 
  - Transition from the obsolete kdrive-glamo driver to a proper xorg
  server infrastructure. This took some time, but it appears that it is
  working fine now. Don't expect any (initial) performance boosts, but
  being on a regular xorg server and having a driver that is actually
  being developed and maintained is a good thing for the future (thanks to
  Weiss and others for some really hard work here).
 
  - More fso...d goodness. Rather than having Mickey Lauer's python
  prototyped phone backend, we are starting to his re-written bits and
  pieces (coded in vala, which should give us a nice performance boost
  over python). For the beginning we have the resource handling
  (fsoresourced) on board and look forward to the next bits and pieces. I
  know very little about the state of things here, so others might have
  more information.
 
  -New phone apps: As if that were not enough changes, the core team
  (mrmoku, tasn, dos1, and others?) has started to redevelop the frontend
  applications for SHR. the old ophonekitd was initially developed by a
  guy called quickev who has been missing in action since quite some
  months now. Don't ask ME why, but apparently the now design allows for
  better/quicker/whatnot development. I'll let one of them speak out for
  themselves about the motivations. Besides lots of work,this gives us
  also a chance to redesign the screens and make the UI better. So goodbuy
  ophonekitd and libphone-efl, welcome phoneui, and libphoneui-shr.
 
  -Bernd Prünzler(spelling?) is kind enough to help out with some theme
  development (BTW, you did know there is a theme contest going on, do
  you? So, go and design and submit something already!). The default theme
  has been designed for powerful desktops, and is using more transparency
  and other fancy stuff than the slow graphics can do. He is developing a
  theme that should be much faster on the Freerunner (but don't expect
  miracles, the hardware will still be barely able to drive a full
  VGA-resolution screen). So expect a big fight between dos1 (niebee
  theme) and bernd (gry theme) for the fastest performance (while
  retaining good looks).
 
  Last but not least: what we had done the last few months, is basically
  taking a fork of OpenEmbedded and developing from that. While this gave
  us the stability to code apps without having others break our stuff (we
  are quite capabable of doing that ourselves it seems :-) ), this led to
  a quickly diverging SHR and OE tree. It was decided that we really
  should include our stuff into OpenEmbedded proper, rather than just
  doing our stuff in parallel. So we had first put all the stuff into an
  SHR/import git tree which is in the openembedded code repository.
  Next, mrmoku created the shr/merge tree which is kept in sync with the
  OpenEmbedded tree and we ported all our enhancements there. The plan is
  to take our bits and pieces from here and merge them into OE over time.
  This is where we currently stand, we want to keep using the shr/merge

 Hello All,

 It appears that I get offered an address by the DHCP server on the wifi
 but that it's not being used by eth0 for some reason. Is this a know
 issue. To be honest I've never tried to use the wifi part of the phone
 before and the wiki might be outdated, even for infrastructure mode?

 Cheers for any help that anybody has time to offer.

   
 I have similar problems getting wifi to work on SHR-U. In my case I get
 an address and configure the interface via dhcp, but can not establish
 any traffic to the interface. In one case I could ping a host but the
 transit time was enormous.

 The other thing I note from ifconfig is ridiculous RX and TX values,
 almost 1TB on an interface I never have used. Looks to me like a bug
 somewhere in the driver code.

 Check route -n, and are you trying wifi with usb plugged in? - depending
 on the order you start/stop interfaces the default route could either be
 wrong or missing.  And which version of shr-u - latest, or older.

 Hi BillK,
 your response motivated me to look at the latest shr-u image as I
 was using one from mid November. Thought I'd best update it even thought
 I'm sort of happy with what I've got at present. I do want to use wifi
 for a demo so off we go. I grabbed the shr-u kernel from 29th of
 November and the lite rootfs from 30th. Bit of a WTF moment there when I
 failed to find any wifi antenna setting in Settings/Connectivity where
  I'm used to seeing it. Decided that I'd just enable the eth0 interface
 with an ifup but get told that interface don't exist.

 Maybe I leaped too far forward in time. Have you any recommendations as
 to which version to use? I might go back a version and see how I get on.
 Maybe I should be using the full root-fs but I only want the basics at
 present.

 I did in the mean time discover coova-chilli for the first time. That
 one slipped under my radar, like a good many other things. I'll go back
 in time but if you've any advice on a good image let me know.

 Cheers
 
 Shr teams just announced the release of a testing-image and it seems to
 work fine. Mokoconnect is not working but I have been able to set up a
 wifi connection to both wep (without password) and wpa-psk networks
 using the termninal.  Take a look at here:

 Cheers!

 - Un mundo mejor es posible -
 

I did an opkg update and an opkg upgrade of my lite rootfs from the
30th of November and now there is a wifi on setting in
Setting/Connectivity  but doesn't seem to be able to find a dhcp offer
on my network.

I'll maybe change to the testing image and see how that works out.
