Gonna first answer this one small ogg bit. 2009/7/17 The Digital Pioneer <[email protected]>: > That said, if anyone knows a way to make it not cut and skip when playing > OGG with mplayer niced at -19, I'd love to hear it.

My mplayer (on Debian) didn't skip when left alone when I was on a trip, but it usually started to skip if I had frameworkd + wicd + zhone + tangogps all running in the background. I mostly just needed frameworkd and tangogps, though. The key to success is probably compiling some program (eg. mplayer) with the integer-only tremor ogg decoding support. I'm going to have a look at that soon now that I noticed this severe enough "multi-tasking problem" with ogg playing. Without it the CPU load is 60-70% which is pretty high for a 400MHz ARM CPU. But right. I think I mostly covered my anti-whining already in the whining thread, even though this thread would have been a much better place for it. In addition to the Cool Stuff, I'm also one of the people who also use it as the only daily phone, and mostly since August 2008. Of course buzz and echo fixes made GSM life much easier settings wise. I love RSA authentication to home 24h NAS box (running ARM port of Debian as well, like the FreeRunner). Having instant messengers and IRC there gives a possibility to check those from FreeRunner at will. And I mentioned already in that other post that copying photos from camera to Neo via USB host mode is a neat feature and then Neo can be also used to back them further up to eg. the home server from anywhere around the world (...with WLAN access points). Om2009 as a dual-boot backup OS is useful sometimes as well, though less so now that the occasional xf86-video-glamo WSOD problem on shutdown got fixed (I then booted to Om2009 to run fsck on the SD card...). -Timo _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
