 Is at this place the Om2008.8 (ASU) tomorrow or not?

Is 8/8: First official release of Om 2008.8 [1] in the front page
guilty ? : looks like it was announced officially indeed :(

Anyway, now it should be released right ?

I can see two sets of images in
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily/freerunner/200808/20080808/ :
 openmoko-devel-image
and
 openmoko-qtopia-x11-image

Is it OK now ? ... which one should be use : my guess is
openmoko-qtopia-x11-image as -devel seems more of
unstable/testing/beta things...

Thanks in advance for any hints.

 Me too (also Sandisk 8GB). It bit me while running Qtopia from SD card:
 Upon resuming the system crashed, probably because the rootfs was
 gone...

 I could reproduce this after having booted from flash. dmesg log of the
 suspend/resume cycle is attached.

Any fix for this problem?

I've made many test with a 4G SD.
If use it for boot qtopia from vfat and ext2 partions it work fine. Slowly but 
fine.

If I start system from 2007.2 in flash the mounted SD partitions give me many 
errors.

Sometime was mounted 1st partion, sometime all of than.
I've tried to access it in reading and writing and frequently I get I/O errors 
in dmesg.

On time was loose partition table (in suspend/resume session).

I've tried many partitions schemas (mixed FAT and ext2) but always I/O errors 
come.

I've reformatted in a unique partition with FAT and I've filled in it about 
1GB of maps for tangogps from my PC.

The partition was mounted in /media/card and when tangogps start to read from 
SD some file was read good and many other not.
The screen become full noised when SD is reading and get I/O errors.
After the read go to end the screen come back showing fine.

The 4GB SD with my PC work fine, no I/O errors.
The 512M SD in FR package always work very well.

The 4GB SD is a Apacer Micro SDHC 4GB Class 6.

 OM -- they chosen an adapter which seems to be not that popular and

While we're on the subject, a USB Host/Device Y-cable or adapter would  
be good to include as well.  Come to think of it maybe there is a  
market for a 3rd party supplier to put together an accessory kit that  
extends the functionality of the FR beyond 'laser-pointer yielding'

NO! This was standing there since a few days!
This section is a mixed up event and news section.
And someone put it in there as upcomming event!

We should split up news and events in two boxes.
And news should be something like offical announcements.

 Anyway, now it should be released right ?

 
i don't think so !

 I can see two sets of images in

 and
  openmoko-qtopia-x11-image

 Is it OK now ? ... which one should be use : my guess is
 openmoko-qtopia-x11-image as -devel seems more of
 unstable/testing/beta things...

 
If i understand all the postings of yesterday right, this is the real 
meaning of the files:

openmoko-devel-image : 

This is the offical Om2007.2 release. 
install the rootfs. Do a opkg update  opkg upgrade.
And you are just where everyone in the list is when he saied he is running a 
OM2007.2



openmoko-qtopia-x11-image :

This is not the ASU or the Om2008.8 !
this is a mixture from Om2007.2 and some ASU applications.
(And the style the ASU would look like.) So used it to 
see what ASU would look like. But it will have many bugs 
the ASU doesn't have or witch are not there anymore.
And now i don't know what someone in the list used if he saied he used ASU.
For me i always thought this is the ASU. So maybe he used this or the real ASU.


How to get the real ASU:

i don't know. we have to wait for the announcement.
If i understand the other people right, there had never been a correct 
installation guide in the wiki, about where to get an up to date ASU image.
It is just an Om2007.2 updated with qtopia apps.


 Thanks in advance for any hints.

Thanks for the script.
After wondering for a while why it didn't work at all for me, I
added
   stty min 1  /dev/ttySAC1

because either frameworkd in FSO or openmoko-agpsui did an
   stty min 0  /dev/ttySAC1
and that caused grep to exit immediately.

Anyway, I haven't let it run completely yet, but the first result is

d i time

Yes, nearly 10 minutes.  This is indoors, but I have had problems
getting a GPS fix everywhere, inside, outside, in a car, in the park.
Once it fixes it tracks OK (though it doesn't recover from going into
a shopping complex and coming out again).

It seems a lot like the originally reported problem, but this is with
a kernel that has the fix and the magic sysfs files:

Linux om-gta02 2.6.24 #1 PREEMPT Tue Jul 29 01:19:38 UTC 2008 armv4tl unknown

I have the wireless going, but GSM is possibly turned off as I killed
frameworkd to make sure it wasn't touching the GPS.

I know someone who I trust to solder the capacitor - should I try that
(if I can get hold of him)?


Another result just came in:

d i time
0 0 real 9m 52.15s
0 1 real 8m 29.79s


These numbers are actually pretty good.  openmoko-agpsui was giving me
1000 or 2100 seconds!

I decided to take out the SD card (and the SIM card) and try again.
(just chat quietly among yourselves while we wait for the first
result).

d i time
0 0 real 5m 14.32s
0 1 real 2m 56.78s

Openmoko Om 2008.8 Release

2008-08-08 Thread William Lai
Dear Community,

We are proud to announce the release of Om 2008.8 for public reviewing. 
It represents our current state of development over the last 6 months. 
We came a long way before achieving this milestone.
Here is what you can expect:

- A stable and working phone stack realized by using Qtopia.
- A new and flexible window manager [Illume] that broadens our support 
for the different graphic libraries, including GTK+ and more.
- The whole system software has been reworked which leads to a very fast 
and reliable suspend  resume, LED control and power management.
- A graphical frontend [Installer] for package management as installing, 
removing or updating applications via repositories.
- Also included is an application which combines GPS and SMS [Locations] 
for easy sharing of locations among friends.

For detailed information about Om 2008.8 (including instructions, 
references and currently known issues) check out our wiki at:
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Om_2008.8

Please consider this a next step towards an open end user ready mobile
platform. We are not there yet but we will continue working towards that
direction. We invite you to install our latest release and give feedback:

http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/Om2008.8.rootfs.jffs2
http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/Om2008.8.uImage.bin

Soon after our release we will publish frequent snapshots of our
builds to give you the possibility to follow our development and latest
fixes. You can join forces with our QA team by submitting bug reports 
and/or patches to make the platform as robust as possible.

We are excited about this release and look forward to moving together 
towards upcoming milestones.

Best Regards,

Openmoko Team

Re: Openmoko Om 2008.8 Release

2008-08-08 Thread Wolfgang Spraul
Maybe I should add that the binary Om 2008.8 release is for GTA02 only  
right now.
For GTA01, we have no big plan yet but we will look at it next. The  
biggest problem that stops us is that we are extremely low on GTA01  
phones :-)
I am only aware of 1 (ONE) functioning GTA01 in the Taipei office. A  
bit hard to do development and testing that way.
Next week we will look at the Om 2008.8 on GTA01 situation:

1. how many people want this?
2. does anyone in the community step up and compile the distribution  
for GTA01? (there will be some work: size reduction, GPS chip, etc)
3. can we support or do that from Taipei, do we find enough working  
GTA01?
4. how much work is it and how fast can we do it?

Also, the files on http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/ are a bit  
confusing.
There are 4 files there, but actually only 2. The other 2 are  
symlinks. The symlinks have no 'gta02' in the name giving you the  
impression it could be for GTA01 - but it isn't :-)
So there are only 2 files, and they only work for GTA02:

http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/Om2008.8-gta02-20080808.uImage.bin
rootfs: 
http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/Om2008.8-gta02-20080808.rootfs.jffs2

Finally, don't ask me where an updated u-boot is. I think we will add  
it shortly.

 Dear Community,

 We are proud to announce the release of Om 2008.8 for public  
 reviewing.
 It represents our current state of development over the last 6 months.
 We came a long way before achieving this milestone.
 Here is what you can expect:

 - A stable and working phone stack realized by using Qtopia.
 - A new and flexible window manager [Illume] that broadens our support
 for the different graphic libraries, including GTK+ and more.
 - The whole system software has been reworked which leads to a very  
 fast
 and reliable suspend  resume, LED control and power management.
 - A graphical frontend [Installer] for package management as  
 installing,
 removing or updating applications via repositories.
 - Also included is an application which combines GPS and SMS  
 [Locations]
 for easy sharing of locations among friends.

 For detailed information about Om 2008.8 (including instructions,
 references and currently known issues) check out our wiki at:
 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Om_2008.8

 Please consider this a next step towards an open end user ready mobile
 platform. We are not there yet but we will continue working towards  
 that
 direction. We invite you to install our latest release and give  
 feedback:

 http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/Om2008.8.rootfs.jffs2
 http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/Om2008.8.uImage.bin

 Soon after our release we will publish frequent snapshots of our
 builds to give you the possibility to follow our development and  
 latest
 fixes. You can join forces with our QA team by submitting bug reports
 and/or patches to make the platform as robust as possible.

 We are excited about this release and look forward to moving together
 towards upcoming milestones.

 Best Regards,

 Openmoko Team

 Just to clear this up, I have read through the kernel source for the

 GTA02 driver. So either the PMU does not support it, or the kernel does 
 not use this fature in its driver.

IIRC, PCF50606 can't do 1000mA, only PCF50633 can.

though, related to h effects:

1) Is this the first release to incorporate xglamo?
2) Is this about the best graphic performance we can expect from the

frameworkd and logread -f would be good. For full verbosity, add

Newer frameworkd with configuration on-the-fly coming soon.

Re: Any opinions on purchasing from Koolu?

If you're in Canada, go with Koolu.  I made the mistake of ordering
from the Openmoko store because the shipping with UPS was cheaper, but
it ended up being much more expensive when it arrived because of their
brokerage fees (it was something like $120).

 Gp2xstore.com only lists the Neo 1973 - not freerunner, and has been ignoring 
 my e-mails for a week and a half, so I guess my only choice is Koolu.

 But, Koolu looks like they want to go a different direction with their phones 
 than Openmoko does by installing Android, Google Apps, and some other goodies 
 that I have no interest in.  I've been hesitant to purchase from them because 
 of this, but I'm wondering if anyone else has purchased an 850 Freerunner 
 from Koolu and how that went?  Did you get your phone?  Have any problems 
 with Koolu?  Do you have any problems installing any of the openmoko 
 builds/stacks?

 Thanks!

I guess you may convert the contents of the JFFS2 to a tarball by
following bits explained here :
http://maemo.org/community/wiki/ModifyingRootImage/

In particular somthing like this on a desktop GNU/Linux (if you run
2.6 kernel) :

mknod /tmp/mtdblock0 b 31 0
modprobe loop
losetup /dev/loop0 Om2008.8.rootfs.jffs2
modprobe mtdblock
modprobe block2mtd
echo /dev/loop0  /sys/module/block2mtd/parameters/block2mtd
modprobe jffs2
mount -t jffs2 /tmp/mtdblock0 /media/jffs2

USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISKS ;)

 Well, that depends a lot on what kind of feature request this is. As I wrote

 to fullfill all user needs yet. Basic phone functionality is the goal.

 If it is something in this area feel free to submit a ticket for it:

 there are two sources of possible trouble for quality, cpu load and
 timing of bluetooth frames.
 
 The cpu is not likely the problem on neo. When driving it through the
 alsa driver, the neo1973 had really good a2dp performance even on
 older versions of bluez-utils, much better than the TI cpus (eg in the
 n800). Did you check the cpu load while playing? I don't have a
 freerunner, but the cpu is supposed to only be an improvement over the
 neo1973.
 
 btw, what version of bluez-utils is in the system?
 
 an aside, the gstreamer plugin has had a performance issue that burns
 a lot of cpu. I never did isolate it to either the encoder or
 transmission components. It isn't likely you're using the gstreamer
 route unless you specifically set out to do it that way.
 

Here's everything I have installed that matched grep blue :p


blueprobe - 0.18-r3 -
bluez-hcidump - 1.38-r0 -
bluez-utils - 3.23-r4 -
bluez-utils-alsa - 3.23-r2 -
bluez-utils-compat - 3.23-r4 -
kernel-module-bluetooth - 
2:2.6.24+git29+2c55337cb0cde08203df321a108409b7e33e6904-r2 -
libbluetooth2 - 3.23-r0 -
task-base-bluetooth - 1.0-r71.02 -


I'll be sure to check the CPU usage next time I try it.

Packets start to drop when according to l2ping between the phone and the 
headphones while I'm using it as well.  I wonder if that means anything?

FSO. I mean, i need full-qwerty-with enter and backspace and arrows.
Keyboard layout switching with sliding works great. Backspacing with sliding
is cool but I think there should be button too.
I installed illume-conf, why there are no preinstalled keyboard?

I installed xterm and openmoko-terminal2. When I'm typing, the text not go
to terminal, instead it is collected top of keyboard and goes untill I
choose them.

Apparently others are having problems too, it seems.  Perhaps the signal in the

tangospg and 2008.8 - gui not drawing

2008-08-08 Thread Steven Kurylo
Hi,

I just installed the latest tangogps (0.9.2-r1) on 2008.8.  Several
GUI widgets aren't drawing properly, which were fine on other
distributions.

On the bottom left hand corner I see maps but none of the other tabs
to the right are shown, its black.  However if I tap in the black
area, the page loads properly (trip, config, etc).  If I'm on the trip
page, I can see the trip tab, but the rest are black.

On the map page, the fullscreen button on the top is cut off.  I
also can't see the autocenter button.

Is this happening to other people with 2008.8?

Re: can't connect to internet after ASU upgrade

2008-08-08 Thread Daniel Benoy
Actually it's saying Packets: X, Errors: Y (0 errors on the output you pasted)

Also, I'm not sure about what ASU does by default, but have you checked the 
default route?  The 'gateway 192.168.0.200' line in /etc/network/interfaces 
should be under usb0, and you should see it when you run 'ip route show' 
(default via ADDRESS dev usb0).  Google should also be able to provide you more 
information about how to set and examine default routes.

If it's a freerunner, you may also want to consider getting it on a wireless 
network for simplicity's sake.

Re: Openmoko Om 2008.8 Release

2008-08-08 Thread Dave Vehrs
Thanks for the update but its got a few issues.

For starters why was the terminal removed from the default image?
This is a beta linux device, there are a ton of time having a terminal
is a good thing.  And I'm not always someplace I can plug it in.

Second, whats with the constant run to hibernate in 6 seconds?   Even
if plugged into USB, it hibernates.   And why does it drop the USB-net
connection when it hibernates?

While this release is prettier, I haven't been able to even make one

Upgrading on Qtopia

2008-08-08 Thread Matthew Lane
Hey all,

I've read that opkg can't upgrade qtopia, but it should be able to 
upgrade my kernel, correct?

Well, when I do opkg update, opkg upgrade my phone will spend about 
20-30 minutes updating everything (from the latest qtopia image on 
trolltech's website) and I need a lot of those packages (such as 
libc++6) for running other scripts on qtopia.  Anyways, after upgrading, 
I restart my phone and it freezes on the blank black screen with a 
cursor in the upper left corner.  The phone won't ever boot!  So I have 
to reflash the lastest image I just tried to upgrade.  I've attempted 
this twice, and I can't upgrade my phone!

Re: Debian on FreeRunner

2008-08-08 Thread Robert Schuster
Hi,

Daniel Benoy schrieb:
 Wow that sounds neat!  How hard would it be to create an apt repository on 
 the openmoko build host using this?  Then we could just edit a config and run 
 apt-get ^.^
It is not hard. In fact for Jalimo we are packaging OE-built packages
for Maemo: http://jalimo.evolvis.org/repository/maemo/

You can find information on how to set up a repo on the Debian website.
Basically you have to set up the correct folders and then run the
following programs across it:

dpkg-scanpackages -a armel pool/${1} /dev/null | gzip -c9 
dists/${1}/user/binary-armel/Packages.gz

dpkg-scansources pool/${1} /dev/null | gzip -c9 
dists/${1}/user/binary-armel/Sources.gz

${1} is the distro name. That would be 2008.08 for the OpenMoko OS. :)

However you should know that OpenMoko is tailored to work with opkg. I
am not sure what will break if you use dpkg and apt-get/aptitude on it.

I would also modify the openmoko image definition to not include opkg
and instead apt. Angstrom - the distro - OpenMoko is derived from - has
support for .deb packages. Perhaps the easiest way is to look how it is
done there.

Btw: OE can also create RPMs. :)

Robert

 It's easy to automate since surfing non-SSL sites should send your HTTP

 track of data counts, browsers, etc. for each wireless account.

   
 Their unlimited data plan used to be $20/month but they raised it to $30 
 for the new iPhone. Tethering adds even more because they expect that 
 you'll be downloading much more data than users who don't tether.
   
 So unlimited data isn't unlimited at all?
 

 As far as I've seen, personally, it's unlimited. Of course, I tend not
 to tether my ATT phone to my laptop and download ISO-sized files or
 anything. I'm sure if you reach a certain amount of traffic, they'll
 notice you. Last month I only downloaded about 60MB on my phone.

   
 But I'm told that Sprint Metro PCS allows unlimited data, and tethering, for 
 US$60/mo
 

 That's slightly cheaper than ATT then, who charges me $69/month for
 unlimited data plus tethering.

Instead of just tethering couldn't you set up a proxy server on your OM 
and since the user agent is in plain text, change firefox to minimo? I 
imagine the user agent signatures are pretty similar.

There is a new image at qtopia.net. This new one _should_ be able to 
upgrade the system.

As well, there is a qtopia binary only tarball which has a script to 
update just qtopia in case you don't want to backup your settings.

Re: Which ATT data plans are compatible?

 Instead of just tethering couldn't you set up a proxy server on your OM

 imagine the user agent signatures are pretty similar.

I had a similar situation with Vodafone in Italy. They disallowed
tethering and blocked all non port 80 / 443, and seemed to disallow
any other user agent strings besides mobile browesers. But if you have
a server somewhere that has SSH, an easy enough solution is just to
use ProxyTunnel to tunnel SSH over HTTPS (due to the way SSL proxies
work). For the real paranoid, check out SSH over SSL over SSL, where
you run your own SSL proxy server, which then gets connected to by the
network's proxy, and then forwards everything to your local SSH
server. This pretty much makes the traffic indestinguashable from
legit SSL traffic.

HTH,

Re: tangospg and 2008.8 - gui not drawing

Hi,

I just installed the latest tangogps (0.9.2-r1) on 2008.8.  Several
GUI widgets aren't drawing properly, which were fine on other
distributions.

On the bottom left hand corner I see maps but none of the other tabs
to the right are shown, its black.  However if I tap in the black
area, the page loads properly (trip, config, etc).  If I'm on the trip
page, I can see the trip tab, but the rest are black.

On the map page, the fullscreen button on the top is cut off.  I
also can't see the autocenter button.

Is this happening to other people with 2008.8?


 Yes, the gtk theme is a bit buggy, attached my own fixed gtkrc which 
reduces the inner button borders to a reasonable size and fixes the 
background colour of inactive notebook tabs.


 This makes both tangogps and some other GTK apps much more usable.

 You can either install it by overwriting 
/usr/share/themes/Moko/gtk-2.0/gtkrc or I think by sticking it in 
~/.gtkrc-2.0


 Cheers,
  Mike.

SF User's Group - Meetup?

2008-08-08 Thread Consulting Goat

Hi - I'm new to OpenMoko (I don't even have a device yet) Personally  
I'm interested as an end-user; I know we're not there yet, but I'm  
fairly techie so I thought I'd jump in early.

The company I work with is a supporter of OpenMoko and open source -  
and we have space to host user groups in San Francisco!Please  
respond on this list if you would be interested in a user's group  
meeting - maybe once every 1-2 months - here in SF?

Fwiw - I was the person who was collecting names and addresses at  the  
OpenMoko booth at LinuxExpo - so if you signed up there, you'll  
probably see another email from me.

Do other local users groups set up a seperate email list for meetup  
announcements?  Anyone got an extra mailman install to use for this  
purpose, so we don't have to resort to GoogleGroups?  ;-)

Take care,
Greg

2008.08 - First Impressions

2008-08-08 Thread Dale Maggee
I've been playing with 2008.08 for a little while now, and I thought I'd 
share some first impressions.

Firstly, it's *gorgeous* - eyecandy city! I *really* like the look and 
feel of it! It's much more friendly and less 'clunky' feeling than 2007.2.

I had a couple of issues on first boot - It seemed _very_ slow - I'm 
talking 5-10 seconds between me pressing something and getting any 
feedback on the keypad at the PIN entry screen. After a reboot this 
seems to have gone away. Also I find the default sleep time painfully 
short, and I don't think it should go straight into sleep - there should 
be a period where it dims  / turns off the screen but doesn't actually 
sleep, like in 2007.2

The graphical installer is great! I really like this, although I agree 
with the opinion stated elsewhere that the text is too big, and I'd 
really like to see the 'description' text on the package details screen, 
so that I know what the package is (names aren't always that informative).

Pet peeves / suggestions:

* Power management - still doesn't work properly - exactly the same 
problem as 2007.2 - the phone wakes up when a call comes in, but doesn't 
make any noise. If I answer the phone, I can't hear the other person and 
they can't hear me. This leave me with two options - turn off power 
management, or be prepared to reboot the phone and call people back, 
neither of which is particularly good.

* keyboard
 - Predictive text is annoying as hell. I really don't think this is 
neccessary for a qwerty keyboard. I love the predictive text on my nokia 
phone that I have for work, but it only has a numeric keypad. The whole 
point of qwerty IMHO is being able to type quickly, and the predictive 
text just seems to get in the way of this. There should at least be a 
way to turn off the predictive text. also I find the way it 
automatically inserts spaces frustrating - it took me *far* to long to 
enter the address of my mail server when setting it up for email - the 
lack of consistent copy and paste also attributed to this.

 - I'd like to see letters on the numeric keypad screen. For 
example, the PIN on my sim card is a word typed using the numbers on my 
phone keypad, not a number - I have no idea what the numbers in my PIN 
are! in order to enter my pin using this numpad, I have to get out my 
nokia and look at it's keypad and then type in the numbers. I also think 
that the conventional numpad layout (123 \n 456 \n 789 \n *0#) would 
make it easier to use, although this may just take a bit of time to 
adapt to..

 - Enter Key - I'd really like to see an enter key on the qwerty 
keyboard, in addition to getting rid of the predictive text. This would 
make using the terminal MUCH easier. I'd also like to see a period and 
hyphen on the qwerty keyboard, for the same reasons (would vastly 
improve using the terminal).

* The clock should be an application, not hidden away in settings
* Installer should be in settings, I don't really think it needs to be 
on the home screen

* using the Aux button for lock is nice, but I think it should be harder 
to unlock - there's a chance (admittedly small) that aux might get 
pressed in my pocket. Personally, I really liked the screen lock on 
2007.2, where you had to drag one icon onto the other - I thought that 
this was a novel and very functional unlock mechanism.

* The home screen needs a way to set up categories/ folders - I can see 
it getting *very* cluttered if I install alot of applications


Overall, I think that openmoko have made a *big* leap forward with 
2008.08, keep up the great work!
