the real hardware, but the lcd/simulate version doesn't build, so I
need to figure out how to add that to both.
I have a virtual machine laying around at home that builds and runs
the WikiReader simulator. Perhaps I can try to integrate your diffs
and see what goes wrong.

Thanks!
I can change the gcc compile line and add a '-I{path}/drivers/include/'
and that works, and I could probably do the same for the linker, but
there are at least 2 levels of automatically generated files from QT
that I haven't figured out yet.

Help needed with GSM Geolocation without GPS
Hi, I wanted to give the GSM location a try. So what I would like to acchieve in the end is: 0. GPS off 1. GSM Cells are detected 2. Triangulation takes place (I don't know yet if eg signal strength is used) 3. Look-up in the OpenCellID offline (!) text database 4. Position being shown in NeronGPS as in eg in the Whereabouts-Mappingdemo shown on the QtMokoDev Page [1] So I started with step 1 and I am a bit stuck. The numbers for the location that the Mokofaen theme displays somehow do not match any of the cell towers my phone is most likely to be connected to: Most likely I am connected to mcc 262; mnc 3; lac 40096 and cellid 137380532 [2] which has nowhere the numbers I get on my home screen: 296/25326 So where am I going wrong. The next question would be: Is there a simple way to get the other surrounding cells and their signal strength (I remember openbmap client was able to do that in shr-unstable). thanks for your advice robin [1] http://radekp.github.com/qtmoko/api/whereabouts-mappingdemo.html [2] http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikeymcc=262mnc=3; cellid=29625326lac=40096 /Telephony/Status/CellLocation ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Help needed with GSM Geolocation without GPS
Dear Daniele, thanks for your reply. I was thinking to implement the whole in python. Currently it is all done by hand: I checked with openbmap what cellid I should be connected to and then downloaded the opencellid cells.txt.gz file to check if the coordinates fit and they do. so having the correct numbers for the cell one can easily get the tower position from the text file in gps-offline mode. the problem is that the numbers for location on the qtmoko home screen do not fit with any numbers of a tower near by. So I was wondering either what does numbers are and how to get the correct ones. Qtmoko currently does not run on fso, so I can't use fso commands to get the values as you do it or cellhunter does it. I am still struggling here. best regards robin ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Position being shown in NeronGPS as in eg in the Whereabouts-Mappingdemo shown on the QtMokoDev Page [1] Sounds good. I wonder what the trade-off is between implementing something like this from scratch for GTA04, and trying to integrate an existing partial solution such as GeoClue? So I started with step 1 and I am a bit stuck.

They look like UMTS ones (which are bigger than GSM). which has nowhere the numbers I get on my home screen: 296/25326 Those numbers look like GSM. Are you actually connected by GSM or by UMTS?
