You can find packages here...

http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/om-gta02/

...but really, it should be easier to get the device to go out and get
latest packages (however one does that) and you shouldn't need to know
this URL.

Mike Montour found it here (you want v5 one)

http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily/freerunner/200808/20080809/

but they aren't in 20080811 dir, bit confusing.

Battery Charger on usb kaput on 2008.8?

2008-08-10 Thread Scott
Ever since I installed 2008.8 my battery meter on teh phone showed the 
lightning bolt whether it was plugged in or not.

I wondered, hmmm.. I hope its charging since we all know the neo will 
drain your battery beyond dead and thanks to a great design will then 
not be able to charge it...

Well, having the phone sitting plugged into my usb port for a couple 
hours it went dead! USB always charged it before on the 2007 and qtopia 
releases!

there are only so many fubar hurdles a person can take before capitulation.

Scott

Re: Battery Charger on usb kaput on 2008.8?

2008-08-10 Thread Scott
The only defect I found on the trac is about no indication of charging 
when phone is off. And its listed as an enhancement?

My problem with the 2008.8 is two fold and not that.

1.) it always shows it charging, there is no indication of battery level 
ever.  You never know where the battery level is?  For a battery powered 
device, thats bad.

2.) It does not charge connected to my laptop.

Tried the latest kernel?  I had a similar thing where usb would only
charge at 100ma (which is not enough so the FR battery goes slowly flat
on usb), but the wall charer was ok.  A kernel upgrade fixed it.

Yeah.  Icon issue should be fixed with today's kernel.

Not sure what the charging aspect of it is.  AFAIK on 2008.08 the red
LED should be lit during charging action, go out if you pull the USB
cable, etc.  If the red light says it charges but

# cat /sys/devices/platform/bq27000-battery.0/power_supply/bat/current_now

isn't a negative number a few seconds afterwards then I would really
like to hear about that and any tips to reproduce it.

Also the bad U-Boot we put out for a while with 50% chance to have
broken USB for the session will cause the symptoms described: host PC
won't be able to enumerate the Freerunner to tell it that it can pull
500mA OK.  So updating U-Boot if it is more than a week or so old won't
hurt.

Is there a directory with the correct kernel and modules for 2008.8 ?

Where is the correct uboot located ?
