Re: Rod Whitby (MokoMakefile author) moves on to start WebOS Internals
Hi Alan, On a related point freesmartphone.org seems to be using the old hackish 3gpp ts07.10 user space code. Correct, for systems which don't use premultiplexed drivers, we're resorting to a userland muxer (not the gsm0710muxd though, but rather a clean implementation based on other code). I'd love to see a kernel muxer, really. While I don't think it makes a difference on GPRS, it might improve system performance on EDGE or UMTS a lot. I've got almost all of a kernel driver only my AT+CMUX capable device has expired. Dunno if anyone is interested in finishing the job (its basically written but not at all debugged and I know the tx queueing needs work either to make it do all the priorities right or just forget the the whole priority nightmare) I think it'd be great if you could upload your code somewhere. Alternatively does anyone know what cheaper EU devices support AT+CMUX, it seems quite rare this side of the pond Do you no longer have an Openmoko device? If not, I could arrange to ship you one -- it may have problems, but at least the GSM would work. Best regards, Mickey. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Rod Whitby (MokoMakefile author) moves on to start WebOS Internals
http://www.rwhitby.net/blog/webos-internals/palm-pre-lands-in-australia.html It is with some sadness that I must say goodbye to the OpenMoko community, and move on to new things. My dream of an OpenMoko phone with a hardware keyboard to replace my aging Treo 650 was never realised, and you all know the rest of the story on the software side of things. I've now started a new community (webos-internals.org) which does open source Linux-based development for the Palm Pre. My hope is that freesmartphone.org may one day be the bridge between the OpenMoko community I am now leaving, and the WebOS Internals community which has recently started. I wish everyone continuing down the OpenMoko path the best of success in the future. -- Rod ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Rod Whitby (MokoMakefile author) moves on to start WebOS Internals
Rod, wow, sad to see you go indeed. You are one of the true old-timers of Openmoko :-) Since hacking the Palm Pre is not that far from an 'open phone' perspective, maybe you can add a feed to the Openmoko planet and we can that way stay in touch with what you are doing? I will regularly check what's going on at webos-internals.org All the best! Good luck!

Re: Rod Whitby (MokoMakefile author) moves on to start WebOS Internals
Rod, thanks for all the work you did to bring Openmoko forward! Even though it took all so long due to all our detours, I'm quite satisfied with what the Openmoko community has created throughout the years, especially since Openmoko Inc. stopped guiding the project. A hardware family often is the initial trigger to establish a community, however it's important to embrace and extend, especially when the days of the hardware family are counted. As other solution come around, it gets important for the Openmoko community to widen the focus and grow into something larger. I created the freesmartphone.org project to cover a much wider scope than Openmoko -- as such, we are looking forward to continue our work on FSO covering both anti-vendor-ports and forthcoming semiopen devices such as the Palm Pre and the Nokia N900. So... good bye and hello again! See you soon, :M: ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
