Re: Has maemo-pc-connectivity been substituted by USB Networking applet (in control panel)?

2008-07-04 Thread Marcio Macedo
Hi,

maemo-pc-connectivity is only a meta-package that install a series of
connectivity-related packages.
The old package you are looking for is masmo-sdk-tablet, which has
been replaced for maemo-control* .
It's not working very well, though.
It's good because it sets up all the parameters in your
/etc/network/interfaces. But the switch to usb networking mode is not
reliable.

 Hi all,

 using chinook I remember I had an icon in Extra menu, called Maemo PC

 It's very bugged compared with the old Maemo PC Connectivity. For
 example if I connect the cable then I disconnect it, it says me that
 USB is busy and I've to disconnect the cable (and it's already
 disconnected!), or if I don't connect any cable and click on Setup
 USB Networking I cannot use anymore the cable, I've to reboot the
 device.

 Any idea? Thanks for your support.

Hi Dave.

Is the same information for N800 valid for N810?

Should these [1] instructions about configuration and test of USB networking
be added/merged to this maemo wiki page? These instructions consider that
the user has installed the meta-package maemo-pc-connectivity on device.

The goal is to make the wiki page (1) useful, (2) up-to-date, and (3)
easily readable.

(1) implies accurate, and simple. (2) implies that we favour information
for N800 and N810 tablets, particularly OS2008 and OS2008.1. Information
for older OSes or for the 770, should be (IMHO) a footnote at lest, or a
reference to an archived page which doesn't show up when browsing the
wiki normally. And (3) implies removing cruft, attempting to have a
consistent writing style, and in general carving the rock to get to the
diamond inside.

Kernel Compilation for N800

2008-07-04 Thread nisha jain
Hi All,

I need to do kernel compilation for N800 for proper serial mode.

While following steps given in link

http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto_kernelcompilation/

I am not able to execute the first command itself

sbox-config -ct MAEMO_KERNEL

it gives following error --


[sbox-CHINOOK_ARMEL: /]  sbox-config -ct MAEMO_KERNEL
sbox-config is obsolete; it has been replaced by these commands:
sb-menu- interactive dialog-based interface  (recommended)
sb-conf- low-level command-line interface


I checked command is in /scratchbox/tools/bin folder
also I don't understand from where to run this command from and what does it
mean
I am not sure where to look through to proceed... I searched in maemo list
not able
to find much useful information.
Please can some one can provide some information?

Nisha

NEW! Wiki Page of the Day: Booting from MMC card

2008-07-04 Thread Dave Neary
Hi all,

I cleaned up the USB networking page pretty well, I think (feedback
appreciated: http://wiki.maemo.org/USB_networking), and we now have an
ALL NEW Wiki Page of the Day for the weekend (or for a couple of hours,
if someone cleans it up quickly): Booting from MMC card
http://wiki.maemo.org/Booting_from_MMC_card

I encourage you all to go and read this page. It looks to me like it's
choc-a-bloc of outdated information which has been superceded by
something easier, but I really don't know.

If that page doesn't tickle your fancy, don't forget that we have a full
category of pages in need of deep cleaning at
https://wiki.maemo.org/Category:Midgard_wiki - feel free to pick one
that *does* tickle your fancy.

Cheers,
Dave.

770 info in wiki Re: Has maemo-pc-connectivity been substituted by USB Networking applet (in control panel)?

Well, I would not be surprised to hear such opinion from @nokia.com but 
I am a bit surprised to hear this from @maemo.org :-)

Nokia 770 is not dead. There are still plenty of users of 770. You can 
still buy 770 new in a box on ebay and used devices change hands to new 
users who need information too. Please be careful with removing 
770/OS2006 or 2007(HE) information. Also people still use N800 with 
OS2007, latest in not always greatest :-)

Perhaps the newest stuff should be first but footnote or archived page 
is going too far IMO.

Can we tag pages or sections with OS/device names?

I think one of the most important aspects of the OSS community is that it
provides support for the community *and the hardware it uses*.

I can compile a kernel for a 386 with some very old hardware (hell, only a
couple of years back I managed to read my Amstrad 2086 XT 20 Mb harddisk on a
modernish linux box with an AT slot); I can run OE on my SL5500;

Speaking as someone who would be next in line up against the wall with a
practically obsolete N800, I don't think the 770 should be 'archived' by
maemo.org, (even if Nokia decide to do so as it appears to have done with
Chinook and Diablo - correct me if I misunderstand).

Oh, and I think Nokia 'abandoning' the 770 is one of the *key* reasons to aim
for a fully open OS on the NIT.

 Perhaps the newest stuff should be first but footnote or archived page 
 is going too far IMO.
 
 Can we tag pages or sections with OS/device names?
Yes, the 'Category' capability of the wiki allows you to do this - very useful.
