It really is a sad commentary on the state of official Openmoko
repositories that this question is even asked.

The state of affairs *should* be that you just get the application name
from opkg.org, and then type opkg install name on whatever
distribution you are running (or select the application name from the
GUI installer application on the device) and it installs flawlessly from
the official feeds for that distribution.

Have we all given up on that scenario (which is commonplace in other
community projects) and must resort to even more third-party
repositories which do nothing more than mirror bits and pieces of all
the existing disparate repositories?

Please, let's make this the best site for *finding* new applications and
deciding which ones to install, but hook it into the existing
repositories and improve them instead of creating yet more repositories
to confuse people, become out of date, and cause upgrade nightmares when
they are not consistent with the base images ...

Depending on your rootfs (ie, Debian) it can be doing fsck on your ext3
filesystem during initscripts there and seem pretty hung -- you'd be
able to see it with debug board.

 Which one way or another goes to highlight that Qi - as it stands now and
 from what I understand of the intention for it - will not be usable for a
 dual-boot setup.  Not a problem actually, as NOR uBoot will let us achieve

What's planned for partition selection is you will in future be able to
press AUX while Qi is pulling in the kernel it selected to abort the
load and move to next usable partition, so I think multiboot will work
out fine if you can remember which n'th rootfs it is you want...
hopefully only a problem for people with 2.

 that, and I realize that the common target case will be a user who wants a
 smartphone, not a multiboot development platform.  I just realized that the
 default behavior of Qi being uSD and the default behavior of uBoot being
 NAND means you could place 'primary' on uSD and 'secondary' in NAND, and
 booting to secondary is just two-step - NOR boot with aux+power, then power
 again to boot.  Don't you love that feeling when things start to click? :) 
 Now I have Base/Empty firing up by default, Raster+FSO if I use aux to
 invoke NOR Uboot.

It's a nice idea to leverage NOR but I think Qi will take care of it
soon and allow more that one alternative rootfs.

Linux implementation that is actually maintainable from single source
tree for kernel and common packageset for the rootfs associated with it.
 Networking can be up so you can ssh in to rescue or update partitions,

But in general it will be slower than clicking AUX if all you want is to

[Om2008.9] Using Freerunner as a digital audio player

2008-10-13 Thread Xavier Cremaschi
Hi folks,
yesterday I tried to use qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer and some ogg/mp3 
files to transform the FR into a digital audio player.

I have encountered 3 software problems :

1. audio quality is bad (whereas it is good with Debian+Sonata/Mpd, so 
definitively not a hardware problem here) : is there a way to tune some 
parameters ?

2. external speakers still work after headphones being plugged : is 
there an alsa subtlety here ? (it switches automatically with Debian)

3. software relies upon tags, which I do not use at all. I have a 
precise filesystem scheme and no need of tag-based players trying to 
sort my music. Is there a way of telling the thing to stop trying to be 
smart ? I need a dumb soft here ;)

qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer seems totally usable with fingers, and 
that's the big motivation for me to use it.

Thanks in advance,
Xavier.

In fact the files I used were not tagged, therefore I saw all my songs

Maybe I would have had the same result with tagged files, who knows ? I

  Surely a program which grabs the information from your well-designed
file system schema would work for you here? The trick is, doing it in
this manner (that is, with tags) makes sure you have processing power
left over when browsing the music, as all the tags are cached in a
high-performance database. It also gives you the advantage of being
able to find tracks directly by artist or by album or by... you get
the idea, i'm sure :) While your filesystem is optimal for a single
path through the music, the method used in the qt mediaplayer makes
sure that the information is accessible through a number of different
paths. So... give tags a shot before you discard their usefulness ;)

 qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer seems totally usable with fingers, and
 that's the big motivation for me to use it.

  On a related topic, the media player designed by the Qt people is
rather simplistic, and while it works quite well, the Amarok team is
working on a new player based on the technologies in Amarok 2 - what
that means is that you'll be able to do all sorts of interesting
things... This is again all tags based stuff, so may well not be what
you want, but as general information for other people ;)

Re: Echo issue on OM2008.08 solved

2008-10-13 Thread Daniel Nöthen
Hello,

I finally found a place in the qtopia sources where I could put code for 
activating the
echo suppression for every incoming/outgoing call.
I'm quite sure that experienced qtopia programmers would find a better 
place for it.
But this just works. And as long as no other solution is out there I 
will share it
with other people who want to combat the echo.

The patch is against the latest snapshot of Holgers qtopia git.
commit: 09335e76e1762b97dad23b997978424ed10f8da1
Unfortunately this version doesn't load the gmshandset.state file when a
call is initiated.

When compiling with this patch a new libqtopiaphonemodem.so.4.3.2 is
created. I replaced this lib with the one on my OM2008.9.

Instead of compiling it yourself you can download the file here:
http://danielnoethen.de/libqtopiaphonemodem.so.4.3.2

wpa_supplicant -u ?

2008-10-13 Thread Stefan Monnier
I'm having trouble getting wifi to work:
I have created a wpa_supplicant.conf file (copied from some other
machine), and have added wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
to /etc/network/interfaces.

Then `ifup eth0' sometimes works, but usually only right after boot.
The problem seems to be different from the wifi only works once
problem described in the wiki, because the symptom is only that
wpa_supplicant fails to associate (it keeps trying to associate, but to
no avail).

The one odd thing I notice, is that I always get 2 wpa processes
running: one wpa_supplicant -u and one with the usual list of
arguments specifying the interface, conf file, etc...

What's this wpa_supplicant -u doing here and who starts it?

Also, it seems that the om2008.9's Wifi GUI (in the Settings section)
doesn't use ifup/ifdown (e.g. it starts up a wpa_supplicant -u only).
That's too bad.  Is there some way to get them to cooperate better?

[Debian] How can I simulate right click ?

2008-10-13 Thread Xavier Cremaschi
Hi folks,
has someone found a way to simulate right click on Debian using stylus 
or finger ?

Because some software relies upon the presence of a second button, and 
it would be great to have the possibility to use them.

I would have like a 'long pressure == right click', but (with Xfce) I 
can see the mouse cursor moving while I put this long pressure on the 
screen.
The touchscreen probably does not have 480x640 points of pressure, so 
maybe long pressure is not a solution here.
Moreover double-clicking is difficult, because mouse cursor moves 
between the 2 clicks (for same reason)... I am interested in any method 
to improve this 'touch screen - mouse cursor' behavior.

Thanks in advance for your advices,
Xavier.

Re: [Om2008.9] Using Freerunner as a digital audio player

2008-10-13 Thread Xavier Cremaschi
Dan Jensen a écrit :
   Surely a program which grabs the information from your well-designed
 file system schema would work for you here? The trick is, doing it in
 this manner (that is, with tags) makes sure you have processing power
 left over when browsing the music, as all the tags are cached in a
 high-performance database. It also gives you the advantage of being
 able to find tracks directly by artist or by album or by... you get
 the idea, i'm sure :) While your filesystem is optimal for a single
 path through the music, the method used in the qt mediaplayer makes
 sure that the information is accessible through a number of different
 paths. So... give tags a shot before you discard their usefulness ;)
 
 qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer seems totally usable with fingers, and
 that's the big motivation for me to use it.
 
   On a related topic, the media player designed by the Qt people is
 rather simplistic, and while it works quite well, the Amarok team is
 working on a new player based on the technologies in Amarok 2 - what
 that means is that you'll be able to do all sorts of interesting
 things... This is again all tags based stuff, so may well not be what
 you want, but as general information for other people ;)
 
 ..leinir

I just want a single view named Folders (which would be a file 
explorer) instead of the existing Albums, Artists, Genre.

I totally understand that a tag-based player could be interesting for 
some people, but I *know* where my files are in my collection.

If I want to listen to Metallica's last album on my laptop (with 
Sonata/MPD), I just go into metal/Metallica/ and I add 'Death Magnetic' 
folder to my playlist.
I don't need to search Genre:Thrash or Genre:Metal, nor 
Artist:Metallica because I know where this folder is.
In fact, yes it is optimal for a single path to the music, and that's 
what I want.

The tag-based approach is a good way to dig into a collection you are 
discovering. Maybe it's shared by a friend, maybe you don't know what 
you have on your disk... whatever, I know which CD I ripped and where I 
stored it on my disk, and collection size is not a limit of this non 
tag-based approach you can trust me ;)

To make a debian analogy, I use debtags to find a package providing a 
functionality I want, but I do not use the tags when I *know* package's 
name.

Xavier.

 Hi,

 I wanted a simple, very finger-friendly app launcher for my Freerunner
 running Debian. I also wanted to access it using the Aux button. So, I
 mixed code from the PyGTK hello world example with code from
 matchbox-keyboard-toggle and came up with Auxlaunch. A screenshot and
 download link is at aliasid.googlepages.com/auxlaunch if you're
 interested.

 At first, it minimizes and waits for the Aux button to be pressed. Then,
 it pops up full screen and shows 3 large buttons. You use the up and down
 buttons to change the top button. Press the top button and the selected app
 starts. You can configure the choices by editing the .auxlaunchrc text
 file. I added an item for Suspend (apm -s), too.

 Anyway, thought I'd share. Comments and questions are welcome. My apologies

  Hi,
 
  I am using the current kernel for qtexended on FR available from

  The version of the module set and the kernel seems to be matching, but
  after extracting the modules on my system, I now have two directories
  under /lib/modules (as I had expected): 2.6.24 (the original kernel) and
  2.6.24mw-g291a9d50 (the minimal module set).

 A given kernel is going to look for its modules down only one path.  We
 have been using these build-specific paths in the git build system for
 some time, they eliminate the problem that incorrect modules get loaded
 into kernel space when you change the main kernel binary.  I dunno what
 our packaging side is doing about modules because it's not discussed
 anywhere that I read.

 Anyway it's good news mwester is using the same system, it just means
 that you only actually need the dir that matches the build stamp of the
 monolithic kernel you are using; any other dirs left lying around don't
 make any trouble except waste space if you will never revert to the
 kernel that matches them.

 Update:

After deleting the 2.6.24mw-g291a9d50 branch from under /lib/modules and
rebooting, I found that the original kernel looks for modules under it (the
deleted branch).  So it is useful, after all.

I don't know what additional utility it provides, though.

 I have no idea what you're talking about.  What wholesale update are

 Could you expand a little for me poor novice here?


 What I meant was that after you install illume-config-illume and set up the
new keyboards [1], you should back up your 89qtopia file from
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/

When you go for opkg update  upgrade, and if that upgrades illume for you,
it could result into your new keyboards disappearing.

Doing things mentioned here [2] to install a good utility for gprs etc. and
then updating the system may also undo some modifications, so backing up
89qtopia after [2] is a good idea.  You can have the qpe process disappear,
and the dialers, messaging etc. fail after updates.

It will help you rescue the setup when you restore it.  You will gain more
insights with actual experience.

 1) Invite Michael to get commit privs and commit this patch himself  
 directly to the OM repo.  This may include teaching about how it all  
 works.
 
 Is it possible to give Michael commit privs for only this package,  
 though? One surely wouldn't want to give them to a community member on  
 the basis of a single GUI app and later find he has b0rked the whole  
 kernel tree.

In four years of running a project with a very low commit barrier, I've
never had a single problem.  And configuration management systems are
designed to be able to remove an errant version, so even in the remote
case that it does happen it's trivial to detect (since lots of people
watch each and every commit) and fix.

If you give people guidance on what they should and should not modify,
then you will find that they follow those guidelines.

Hi Davide,

Is possible the go in conflict, but I think is not a really conflict. It
is that both the application try to manage the brightness. Zhone try to
keep down when not is use, while sephora let you to decide the level.

In every case sephora is not complete, because when the phone restart,
you loose your setting.

The best thing, I don't know if it exist, would be to have a setting
deamon, where we can put our settings (for example the luminosity level
when up) and then zhone to use it when he want the screen on, and when
the luminosity level is changed, sephora will save the chages here too.
(And you will get it again after a restart)

I don't know if I was able to explain myself.

RE: [Om2008.9] Using Freerunner as a digital audio player

2008-10-13 Thread Matthias Camenzind

Convert the audio files before you copy them to the FR. The bad quality is 
caused of that pulseaudio and the openmoko-mediaplayer uses near to 100% cpu 
time. I converted some mp3 to mono 64kbps, they sound good.And cpu usage is 
around 60%. Here a little script:
#!/bin/bash
# execute it in a folder where the tracks are. First argument is to make files 
different to others. (May ID3-Tags are deleted. I used TagTool to create new 
Tags [from Filename].)
for fff in *.mp3; do
echo $fff
lame $fff -b 64 -m m -o -S /home/username/$1 - $fff
done

 Subject: [Om2008.9] Using Freerunner as a digital audio player
 
 Hi folks,
 yesterday I tried to use qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer and some ogg/mp3 
 files to transform the FR into a digital audio player.
 
 I have encountered 3 software problems :
 
 1. audio quality is bad (whereas it is good with Debian+Sonata/Mpd, so 
 definitively not a hardware problem here) : is there a way to tune some 
 parameters ?
 
 2. external speakers still work after headphones being plugged : is 
 there an alsa subtlety here ? (it switches automatically with Debian)
 
 3. software relies upon tags, which I do not use at all. I have a 
 precise filesystem scheme and no need of tag-based players trying to 
 sort my music. Is there a way of telling the thing to stop trying to be 
 smart ? I need a dumb soft here ;)
 
 qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer seems totally usable with fingers, and 
 that's the big motivation for me to use it.
 
 Thanks in advance,
 Xavier.

 I wasn't aware of this problem, but if what you are saying is that the 
 headphone out socket of the phone has a capacitor connected across it 
 that is attenuating the high frequencies, then an external amplifier 
 connected to that socket will not be able to restore those frequencies.

The cap is 1uF in series - see the schematics at 
http://downloads.openmoko.org/schematics/GTA02/ and check the archives 
for a thorough analysis by Joerg:
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-kernel/2008-March/001996.html

An external amp will provide a high impedence load, so things will be 
better, but unless there was an unannounced change in the componenet 
values for the later boards you will be stuck with bass rolling off 
below 160Hz.

On the hardware list you can find discussion of the modification options.

 A well-designed amplifier that takes a digital audio feed from the USB 
 socket - a USB soundcard, essentially, would work in principle, but in 
 practice may be expensive/time-consuming to implement.

There are any number of usb headsets out there. Many would be trivial to 
modify for use with other headphones. If you're serious about your audio 
there's always the HeadRoom BitHead.

 My advice would be to try listening to music on your phone. If it sounds 
 fine, don't worry about it further. If it isn't fine, try using a distro 
 that is known to have good sound capabilities (someone else mentioned 
 that Debian gives high playback quality). Only if this fails to give you 
 adequate quality might it be worth investigating hardware 
 replacements/augmentation.
 
 Regards,
 
 Sam

Here comes version 2.
Changes:
- Configured the u-blox chip to send only relevant messages;
- Configured the u-blox chip to send 4 measurements per second instead  
of just one;

- Don't try to power on or reconfigure the chip if it is already on;
- Filter invalid messages (without a fix) out of the log files.

agreed. in a decade of doing enlightenment - and about a decade of shared
revision control systems (CVS and recently SVN) i have taken a liberal approach
to allowing write access and have yet to be disappointed by it. lower the
barriers and trust people to do the right thing after a quick dont break stuff
or we will hunt you down and cut out your eyes and feed them to our turtles
talking. it lets you spread the work and let other people pick up pieces when
you don't have time. anyone who reads the cvs/svn commits lists (and ALL
developers with commit access should), you spot activity on a project and you
see the diff - if something strikes you as that's wrong its a single
commandline away to revert it. normally you first have a chat to the committer
to see whats up.

i agree with rod. a long period of experience has shown to me that being liberal
is good here. don't hand out write access to anyone - but those who have sent a
few patches and seem to have a clue - get it without further barriers. they are
now in the fold of core developers who have direct access. all activity is
monitored and logged and is revertable. not to mention the psychological
inclusiveness that this shows to people.

If there's NO uSD, or the uSD doesn't contain a folder named 'boot' on the
first partition, with a file named 'uImage.bin', then Qi will boot from
NAND.  It's just if you WANT a dual-boot environment that currently Qi
doesn't let you do that simply.  As Andy noted in his response to that
post, however, he plans for Qi to support user selection of boot, it just
doesn't do it at this time.  Until it offers the ability to select, then
the present behavior (check for kernel on uSD, else use NAND) makes more
sense that always going to NAND and only NAND.

 Hi folks,
 yesterday I tried to use qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer and some ogg/mp3
 files to transform the FR into a digital audio player.

 I have encountered 3 software problems :

 1. audio quality is bad (whereas it is good with Debian+Sonata/Mpd, so
 definitively not a hardware problem here) : is there a way to tune some
 parameters ?

 2. external speakers still work after headphones being plugged : is
 there an alsa subtlety here ? (it switches automatically with Debian)

 3. software relies upon tags, which I do not use at all. I have a
 precise filesystem scheme and no need of tag-based players trying to
 sort my music. Is there a way of telling the thing to stop trying to be
 smart ? I need a dumb soft here ;)

 qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer seems totally usable with fingers, and
 that's the big motivation for me to use it.

 4. battery life :)

 Rui
5.The Hardware problem of external speakers/headphones:
I was *very* disapointed when I discovered the audio quality via
headphones:in IRC they told me that it was because the capacitor(that is
between headphone out and the sound card)'s value was too low and acted as
a filter...
As I am too afraid of breaking the openmoko i won't change the capacitor
myself...but what could I do? build/buy an external amplifier(will it work
fine?) or find a place where they could remplace me the capacitor?
I wanted to remplace my old ogg player with the openmoko...because my old
ogg player is(pma430):
*not powerfull enough to decode all the internet radios(such as mms://)
*has a lot of bugs(the port of mplayer is buggy on it,and the default
audio player too)
*can't be easely programmed to make a usefull(quick and dirty)
player...because there is an old qtopia,python hasn't the gtk
library,mplayer is buggy etc...so making a player is out of my capacity...

So I Thought buying the openmoko that I could also use it as a ogg/radio
player...but without headphones...I can't listen to it in the metro...

 Mmmm that's strange because everything sounds good under Debian. But 
 thanks for the hint, I will check my cpu usage.
 

You are right, after a bit of killing :
- it sounds good with qtopia media player, and mediaserver eats 45% of 
CPU in top
- it sounds good too with mplayer (frontend here 
http://www.opkg.org/package_1.html) and it eats only 30% of CPU

On your first question, I couldn't say if the cause is something inherent
in GSM+GPRS, a chipset limitation, something that could be addressed in its
firmware, or simply gsm software support.  Hopefully one of the latter two,
right? :)

As to the second, yes that's pretty much the situation.  As I understand
it, there are also limitations on simultaneous use of GSM and Wifi as well
as Wifi and Bluetooth.  (not inability, just limits)

If you're sitting on a solid internet connection, IMHO VOIP would be better
anyway.  :)

 Yes, that much I know.  But the question remains: what is it doing here,
 and who starts it?

If I would have known this, you would have got an answer from me :-)

 
  Also, it seems that the om2008.9's Wifi GUI (in the Settings section)
  doesn't use ifup/ifdown (e.g. it starts up a wpa_supplicant -u only).
  That's too bad.  Is there some way to get them to cooperate better?
 
  Try my 'procedure' in http://www.unixarea.de/openmoko.txt
  and see if this helps you too; my Wifi comes up in 99 of 100 cases;
 
 I'm not sure which part is important.
 But more importantly, it doesn't seem to be have much to do with the
 Wifi GUI that's in Om2008.9, right?  It just provides another GUI.

Of course for Wifi the chapter about Wifi is relevant; and no, this does
not just provide another GUI, but a procedure which is working for me;

 it seems the pppd stuff isn't fully configured.

 PS. What I said in an earlier post about the web browser not having a

 I finally was able to enter the APN. Hadn't chanced on the 'magic' tap

connect in the first place.

I also want to know which number is being dialed, but there seems to be no

 Hi folks,
 yesterday I tried to use qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer and some ogg/mp3 
 files to transform the FR into a digital audio player.
 
 I have encountered 3 software problems :
 
 1. audio quality is bad (whereas it is good with Debian+Sonata/Mpd, so 
 definitively not a hardware problem here) : is there a way to tune some 
 parameters ?
 
 2. external speakers still work after headphones being plugged : is 
 there an alsa subtlety here ? (it switches automatically with Debian)
 
 3. software relies upon tags, which I do not use at all. I have a 
 precise filesystem scheme and no need of tag-based players trying to 
 sort my music. Is there a way of telling the thing to stop trying to be 
 smart ? I need a dumb soft here ;)
 
 qtopia-phone-x11-mediaplayer seems totally usable with fingers, and 
 that's the big motivation for me to use it.

4. battery life :)

I don't know if we are talking about the same Europlug-USplug-adapter;
I've checked mine and if the Europlug is connected to the wall outlet
and you open the latch which holds together the charger (with US contacts)
and pull downwards the charger, the UC contacts are coming out of the
Europlug, but before you could touch them with the finger, theu're

maybe with a blade of a knife you could reach the US contacts before
going away from the electrical parts of the Europlug;

No such luck.

 In four years of running a project with a very low commit barrier, I've
 never had a single problem.  And configuration management systems are
 designed to be able to remove an errant version, so even in the remote
 case that it does happen it's trivial to detect (since lots of people
 watch each and every commit) and fix.

 If you give people guidance on what they should and should not modify,
 then you will find that they follow those guidelines.
 
 agreed. in a decade of doing enlightenment - and about a decade of shared
 revision control systems (CVS and recently SVN) i have taken a liberal 
 approach
 to allowing write access and have yet to be disappointed by it. lower the
 barriers and trust people to do the right thing after a quick dont break 
 stuff
 or we will hunt you down and cut out your eyes and feed them to our turtles
 talking. it lets you spread the work and let other people pick up pieces when
 you don't have time. anyone who reads the cvs/svn commits lists (and ALL
 developers with commit access should), you spot activity on a project and you
 see the diff - if something strikes you as that's wrong its a single
 commandline away to revert it. normally you first have a chat to the committer
 to see whats up.
 
 i agree with rod. a long period of experience has shown to me that being 
 liberal
 is good here. don't hand out write access to anyone - but those who have sent 
 a
 few patches and seem to have a clue - get it without further barriers. they 
 are
 now in the fold of core developers who have direct access. all activity is
 monitored and logged and is revertable. not to mention the psychological
 inclusiveness that this shows to people.

 I then logged out of the phone  restarted the phone, thinking I now

 No such luck.

 Now, the IP address is neither the default nor anything on the

 Any help in getting the phone functioning again, would be greatly

 Many thanks

 What is the full IP, gateway, and subnet mask you set on the
 FreeRunner,
 and on the USB network interface on your host?  Does it overlap the
 subnet
 on any other interface on the host?

 j

 If you are able to set up a packet sniffer on USB network device on
 the
 host, try tapping 'installer' on the FR and see what IP the connection
 attempt comes from.
 
 I thought i had it setup this way
 
   address 192.168.1.20
   netmask 255.255.255.0
   network 192.168.1.0
   broadcast 192.168.1.255
   gateway 192.168.1.101  (my MBP)
 
 My home lan is using 192.168.1.*** range.

That's the problem there.  Your desktop system already has a valid working
route to 192.168.1.0/24 on ethernet.  When you set up another network
interface with the same subnet (192.168.1.0/24) then the result is
OS/kernel dependent, but almost NEVER pretty.

Try setting the usb networking on the host to 192.168.1.21, subnet mask
255.255.255.248 (that's /29).  You should be able to communicate with the
FR again at that point.  The FR will still not connect to the world though.
 At the minimum you'll need to change the gateway to 192.168.1.21, and deal
with /etc/resolv.conf.  Then you should be able to reach the internet from
the FR, though your LAN (except the host itself) will be unreachable.



The safest setup is to have different subnets (like 192.168.1.0/24 and
192.168.0.0/24) on each interface.  If you're currently running
192.168.1.0/24 on your LAN, then the usbnet connection should use a
different (non-overlapping) subnet for simplest and best functioning.  The
MBP will need to NAT connections from the FR - presuming it just passes
them, the rest of your network (including router/gateway to the internet)
will send responses to the IP of the FR, which it will have no idea how to
reach since it's 'behind' the MBP from the router's point of view.  To fix
that you'd have to make manual routing changes on the router, or set up
proxy arp on the MBP, or a few other possibilities - all far more complex
than just using different subnets.

The 'fix' I mentioned first works because routing decisions (IE, what
interface do I use for a packet going to a.b.c.d?)  are typically made by
looking at the MOST RESTRICTIVE route first.  So if 192.168.1.20 is
technically within two subnets for the host (192.168.1.0/24 on eth0 and
192.168.1.16/29 on usb0, for example) then it will use the route with the
smaller subnet.  (which means the larger subnet mask number in /24 /29
format)  But normally other devices on the 192.168.1.0/24 network (like
another computer, or router, or network printer) will expect 192.168.1.20
to be RIGHT on the wire out their own interface, NOT on the other side of
your MBP.  (from their perspective the MBP is a router they need to use to
reach 192.168.1.21, and they don't know that)

The other possibility (which I have no idea how to implement on osX) is to
bridge the ethernet or wireless interface on the host to the usb networking
interface.


If for whatever reason you're insistent on keeping 192.168.1.0/24 addresses
on everything, you can set up the smaller /29 subnet I mentioned at the top
on both the host and the FR, and set up default route and nameserver on the
FR appropriately.  Note that without lower-level routing tweaks the FR will
NOT be able to communicate correctly with other IPs in 192.168.1.0/24, just
with and through the host.

 No idea on how to sniff packets, at this time.

I don't honestly know what's available for the Mac, but I'd be surprised if
wireshark were not.  That (or tshark, the text-only console variant) is
what I use almost exclusively on linux and windows systems.

Oh, and back to your original post for a moment, you'll need to go into
Installer and install Terminal, it's not preinstalled in the image.  (once
Installer can communicate with the internet again, that is;)

 Using 192.168.1.x for local network with internet acess and 192.168.0.202

 from FR won't work, then I run firestarter (a firewall out of the ubuntu
 repositories) and internet works again (even if i shutdown firestarter).
 On freerunner (192.168.1.1 is my router, 192.168.0.200 is my host

 pre-down /etc/network/freerunner stop
 
 the /etc/network/freerunner script you can find in the wiki
 (USB_Networking in section Ubuntu, Debian and others)

Is it possible that it's not working after reboot?  I'm wondering if
there's a DROP rule in the FORWARD chain of the hosts's firewall.  (sudo
iptables -vnL FORWARD shows Policy, rules, and packet/byte counts that
matched each - check it next time there's a problem BEFORE you run
firestarter, as well as cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward which should
return '1')

The simple fix in this scenario would probably be just to add these two
lines to the 'start' section of /etc/network/freerunner, based on what's in
the wiki:
iptables -I FORWARD -s 192.168.0.202 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -d 192.168.0.202 -j ACCEPT 

You can add the corresponding 'iptables -D' commands in the 'stop' section
to delete these rules if you like, but leaving them laying around is
pretty harmless.

I run Ubuntu on several workstations, three servers, and a bridge, with my
FR regularly connected to three of the above.  We'll make it work.

 Hello,
 
 I finally found a place in the qtopia sources where I could put code for 
 activating the
 echo suppression for every incoming/outgoing call.
 I'm quite sure that experienced qtopia programmers would find a better 
 place for it.

A better place for stuff needed for a particular modem, would be in the 
phone vendor plugin. That's what its there for. Not to defray this 
patch, but this is very calypso specific, and not part of the GSM spec. 
(although any other modem would most likely just spit out an error)


 But this just works. And as long as no other solution is out there I 
 will share it
 with other people who want to combat the echo.
 
 The patch is against the latest snapshot of Holgers qtopia git.
 commit: 09335e76e1762b97dad23b997978424ed10f8da1
 Unfortunately this version doesn't load the gmshandset.state file when a
 call is initiated.
 
 When compiling with this patch a new libqtopiaphonemodem.so.4.3.2 is
 created. I replaced this lib with the one on my OM2008.9.
 
 Instead of compiling it yourself you can download the file here:
 http://danielnoethen.de/libqtopiaphonemodem.so.4.3.2
 Just replace it with the one in /opt/Qtopia/lib and restart qtopia with:
 /etc/init.d/xserver-nodm restart
 
 In combination with this gsmhandset.state file the volume of your
 calling partner is loud enough, and vice versa.
 http://danielnoethen.de/gsmhandset.state
 
 It should work with every distro that uses qtopia-phone-x11_4.3.2

and a device that has the calypso modem.

 Rui

I'd not think so.  The estimated time remaining varies because your
'recent' power usage varies between checks.  If GSM or wifi start requiring
more power than before to maintain connection, for example, or backlight
usage varies, etc, then the estimate will change according to recent usage.
 (I'm assuming those weren't invoked immediately after one another, but
that some time elapsed between checks - regardless, only the estimated time
is acting in any way unexpectedly - remaining capacity seems to be pretty
consistent and presumably fairly accurate)

Yes, I assumed something like that. 
I've looked at the ficgta01 phonevendor sources but didn't find 
a method that is called on every initiated call where I could

This patch is only meant as a temporary bugfix until some more

  Should I be worried?

 I'd not think so.  The estimated time remaining varies because your
 'recent' power usage varies between checks.  If GSM or wifi start requiring
 more power than before to maintain connection, for example, or backlight
 usage varies, etc, then the estimate will change according to recent usage.
  (I'm assuming those weren't invoked immediately after one another, but
 that some time elapsed between checks - regardless, only the estimated time
 is acting in any way unexpectedly - remaining capacity seems to be pretty
 consistent and presumably fairly accurate)

I know it wasn't timestamped, bu these were consecutive readings,
perhaps within less of a second between each...

I'm not using wifi, no active call, not anything...

Re: console command history

2008-10-13 Thread Fox Mulder
If you use bash on OM than do it the same way how it is done in a normal
linux pc. You must export HISTFILESIZE=1000 to set the number of lines
saved to 1000. Just put this command in an adequate file to be executed
at start like profile or bashrc.

Ciao,
 Rainer

Re: Openmoko to shift to 2.6.27 kernel ?

2008-10-13 Thread Thorben Krueger
[Sorry, this may be slightly off topic]

May I draw the attention of those whom it might concern to the
following article on LWN, where some guys got linux to boot on an eee
pc in 5 seconds:
http://lwn.net/Articles/299483/

Am I the only one whose eyes are dreamy and glazed over after reading this?

Can we learn anything from this?

 Hi all
 here you have my rotate version.
 This version is based in Chris Ball's rotate, but with some changes:

 * The adquisition engine is encapsulated in a thread.
 * Before rotating screen, it ensures two seconds for the new position
 * Backlight turns black while screen rotating.

Thanks Oscar.
This version works really good.
For all who don't know how to compile it:
arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -o rotate rotate.c -lpthread  -lXrandr

Re: Default OM settings, no lan messed up

2008-10-13 Thread Rodney Myers

The main problem is, I cannot ssh into the OM to make any changes.

I cannot ping the OM, using 192.168.1.0 / 192.168.0.0

In the default setup, there is no shell icon anymore, so I am unable  
to see what the IP address really is.

You may have set the FR properly but it won't route properly from the
desktop side.

Try adding a host route on the desktop

ifconfig add -host 192.168.1.20 dev usb0

You might be able to reach it then.

QtExtended call forwarding

2008-10-13 Thread Charles Pax
I'm sitting here playing with QtExtended right now and see that the call
forwarding settings has a phone number filled out already. The phone number
is 191742004 with the last two numbers being 98 (broke up the number, so
google doesn't index it). Does anyone know what this is about?
