 The usb icon vanished because we don't get it working as indented. You still
 can't switch the usb modes... but sudo should be a good solution the
 deal with the permission problems. may be next version...

What exactly is the problem with switching usb mode?
I can switch between device and host mode in the console without
problems. Only the gadget things doesn't work right at the moment.
Isn't it possible to just implement the switch between usb device and

in the console?

And where can i follow the changelog between the new

Re: Optimization team update (11/02 ~ 11/08)

2008-11-08 Thread Petr Vanek
Hi community,

Hi John Lee, thank you for the great update :) Great work, thank you!
I haven't tried yet but today want to download the testing quick boot
image from last week to see the difference :)

Jeremy looked into the two issues about suspend/resume that we may fix
in userspace.  One is #1991, here is his update:
Another one #1347 is about after the resume, it goes to suspend

While you are working on suspend is there any plan to look at the WSOD
- #1841? Lately, even dimming causes WSOD so not only that suspend
isn't possible but even dim is not an option anymore... there is no way
to conserve the batteries... and this makes the FR even less usable as
a device for PDA (not even talking phone yet).

As this constant energy draw (often all the way down to 0V) actually
kills the battery really quickly. i really hope a fix will be available
before our batteries get badly damaged by this...

cheers

Re: [OM2008] Events/0 eats 30% -- Causing Doom to run slow.

2008-11-08 Thread William Kenworthy
Happened again today while I had time to play.  events/0 reached 60% at
times, though mostly 30% in top - I noticed it because I suddenly
realised the phone was getting noticeably hot in my pocket (visions of
those flaming laptops popped into my mind :) - oddly, the battery wasnt
any hotter than the rest of the phone, though the screen did seem so
(perhaps whatever is behind the screen?)

Started playing with the wireless (just running the connect/disconnect
scripts) and events/0 went back close to zero %.  Nice, but wireless
didnt work either and as its not modular it still needed a reboot.
Playing with iwconfig didnt help either.

I cant access the terminal where the iwconfig listing shows now, but the
odd setting was Rate - something like 63.5Mhz which is weird.  Trying
to change it using iwconfig did nothing (no error, no change), while I
could set the essid and channel.

Booting from large microSD (SDHC) [success]

2008-11-08 Thread Marian Flor
Hello list members,
here another FR success story: Booting and usage of a large 16GB SDHC
works!

My configuration and recipe:
- QtExtend on flash 
- Debian on microSD (ext2+ext2) [1]
- u-boot daily (8 Nov 2008) from [2]
- Applied configure-uboot.sh from [3]
- Kernel for Debian from [4] (but the kernel should not matter)
- microSD card:
  Vendor: SanDisk
  Model: SDSDQ-016G-E11M 
  Size: 16GB
  Speed: Class2

With this configuration I encountered first this error (output from
minicom, /dev/ttyACM0) when I tried to boot directly (i.e. just pressed
power on the FR):

--- 8 --- snip ---

Card Type:  SD 2.0 SDHC
Manufacturer:   0x03, OEM SD
Product name:   SU16G, revision 8.0
Serial number:  2684394330

** Bad partition 1 **
Wrong Image Format for bootm command
ERROR: can't get kernel image!

--- 8 --- snap ---

Note that mmcinit reports a false size [5].
Booting manually from that point worked well:

--- 8 --- snip ---

GTA02v6 # boot
Card Type:  SD 2.0 SDHC

--- 8 --- snap ---

Then I modified the configure-uboot.sh, entered some idle time to let
the SDHC card settle after mmcinit and applied configure-uboot.sh again
to the FR:

--- 8 --- snip ---

   bootm 0x3200

--- 8 --- snap ---

Two seconds settle time is suitable for all boot situations (warm and
cold boot, powered by usb or on battery). Tested. Works. :-D

Note: There is still an issue with the suspend mode [6]. But my MBR was
not eaten (until now ;-) ). I was able to fix a mangled filesystem on
the card with a fsck.ext2 -y /dev/mmcblk0p2 after booting the Linux from
flash.

Enjoy!

Re: (Debian) Problem installing kernel modules

2008-11-08 Thread Paul
Hello Joachim and all,

 I rebooted, Zhone came up and that does not desire to go beyond 
 Connecting w/ dbus...
 May be related to the frameworkd.conf file from another thread

It was indeed the frameworkd problem. I ran the install command
(apt-get --reinstall install fso-config-gta02)
and presto, things started and are working! Including the OpenMoko 
panel, which is a really nice job.

Now onward to installing XFCE, as that is quite nice to have, I noticed. :-)

Re: [QT Extended] Observersation on QtE 4.4.2

2008-11-08 Thread Chris Samuel
On Fri, 7 Nov 2008 11:40:15 pm Tha_Man wrote:

 According to Lorn Potter, it does. And as you wrote earlier in this thread,
 it only appears to send these commands with outgoing calls, since incoming
 calls still have the echo (and the phone set to handsfree/speaker instead
 of handset).

Yup, just seen that in the QT Extended sources in:

  devices/neo/src/plugins/phonevendors/neo/vendor_neo.cpp

Looking at the code in that file I'm wondering if a better place to put the
command to set the echo suppression is in NeoSimInfo::requestIdentity()
as that seems to be called occasionally to get the SIM info.

Alternatively it could go into the NeoCallProvider::cpiNotification() code 
after it calls hangupRemote() to set it ready for the next call and make sure 
it gets set in NeoModemService::initialize() ready for the first use.

The reason I say that is because the original patch put this into the QTE 
libraries rather than in the Neo specific code.

 I'm curious about the alsa-settings that were posted by Kishore, what do
 they exactly fix? As I understand it would fix incoming calls being set to
 speaker (instead of handset), right?

Apparently so, as well as reducing the maximum volume on the handset.

Thing is looking at the diff of the original and fixed versions I can't see how 
it fixes it to use the handset rather than the speakerphone!

 Probably with the keypad that the FR doesn't have :)
 
 I've suggested to Sean McNeil in his wiki talk page to use the AUX
 button not only as a rejecting button, but also as a accept
 button. My idea is:
  - Brief pressure of the AUX: green button
  - Pressure longer than 0.5 sec (enough?): red button
 
 Could it be done easily? I figure...

If it's only going to be one, why not 'accept'??  Worst-case I would be
more willing to let it 'ring out' than be unable to answer...  For a
dual-action as you proposed, I'd suggest silencing the ringer at
'button down' of AUX, so that if you're going to hold it down .5-1 sec
to 'reject' then the ringer will still stop right away, which I
suspect is the main reason that most people use 'reject'.

plus, we still have the accelerators so using the same logic as has been
presented several days ago (flip upside down for silencing etc...)
could also help before anything else is available.

Accelerometer in Java

2008-11-08 Thread Bernd Prünster
Hiho!
Few years went on since i had to bother with such simple issues, but i 
played arounf for some time and didn't get anywhere ( i have no clue 
what to do)
my question is: how do i read our data from the accelerometers in java?
my first approach was to use and modify the pothon script from 
wiki.openmoko.org, execute it and read the output, but that's not a 
desirable way!

so i'm asking to give me a hint how to directly read the accelerometer 
output. (it's gotta be possible without jni and the like...
..but if not, what's the best way to do it?)

It might have been a hoax as well. If I remember it right, it was the 
operator's fault. From the video footage, only some words were understandable.
On the other hand, I remember watching encoded audio + video from a locked

I believe nowadays TV sets are sold with the circuitry to decode digital data

It's hot because of the intense activity, not because of the battery.

The poor battery just get's an usage that drains it's poor life away,
poor... poor sad thing :|

 Started playing with the wireless (just running the connect/disconnect
 scripts) and events/0 went back close to zero %.  Nice, but wireless
 didnt work either and as its not modular it still needed a reboot.
 Playing with iwconfig didnt help either.

Although wireless may help kickstart that bug, I don't believe it's the
cause.

I'm don't use wireless on the Freerunner yet, ifconfig only shows lo and
usb0, and still I have had to reboot to fix the events/0 bug.

USB keyboard udev rule

2008-11-08 Thread Pander
Hi all,

Does anyone have a udev rule for USB keyboard that does the following.
When no external USB devices are connected and a keyboard is plugged in,
USB can switch to host mode and switch back when USB keyboard is
unplugged. As far as I'm concerned, this would be a very welcome feature.

Thanks,

Pander

If they are encrypted, they probably are encrypted on the way to the operator 
only, so the operator can probably see the content.

About calls - I remember I saw a documentary in which the calls interfered with 
TV sets, which allowed to hear the conversations. That would imply unencrypted.

I think, there are DBus bindings for java. So you could probably take a look 
at the services offered by FSO for reading accelerometers output.

 I was reading about using python to write applications on openmoko in the

 python-etk.

 So as member of FDOM group, I'd like to rewrite the FDOM submenus with
 python-etk instead
 python-gtk. Could someone recommend me some documentation to develop
 applications with python-etk?

Take a look at the wiki, I started a collection of EFL/ETK related links 
there. The page was named EFL Documentation iirc...

Re: [android] usb keyboard

2008-11-08 Thread Petr Vanek
I added it in /init.rc but it didn't work. The keyboard powers up, so
it looks like host mode is working, but I don't get any input in the 
terminal app. Also NumLock etc.don't light their respective LEDs.


I don't think the numlock led lits up for me when connected to fr. i
will try this tonight if i get some time. if you get any other idea,
just post us, would be cool to figure this out
--
Petr Vanek

so i have tried and no luck either yet - i commented out all the ifup
usb0 related stuff, turned usb host on but no... what i noticed though
is that after fr get's usb plugged in it starts charging. this means
that something turned it back to device mode. i might try to run the
host mode script delayed or even to repeat...
