I don't blame the community for the state of things; I think that Openmoko.com started by biting off much more than it could chew, failed to build a solid community, then realized the dead end which they put themselves into, and backed out on all of us into plan B. I understand the economics that forced OM to reboot and start over with the Wikireader, but I will always resent the fact that I spent 300 EUR on a badly designed and even worse tested hardware. I cannot forgive them for releasing this HW into the public without a fully patched kernel and drivers and a full list of known caveats after an honest effort to completely test the device. They somehow thought that time-to-market was more important than quality and reliability. Personally, I think there is no forgiveness for them because of this. Having said that, I am admired at this community that still keeps kicking the dead horse with a passion, and there is a small thread of hope inside my heart that this brick will someday fulfill at least half of its promises. And if it does, it will all be due to the work of these last few heroes - and I thank you so much. The Openmoko project is to me a disappointment as big as the cancellation of SG-1 and Firefly: there was still so much to do and say, but economics had the last word. Well, at least there are positive things left behind like the FSO and the colorful ecosystem of other distros and apps. Have a nice 2010 everyone!! :D May the source always be with you.

When fsogsmd is finished, will it be responsible for the ppp supervision instead of frameworkd? If so, I presume that will fix this problem, because of fsogsmd not using Python and the bindings mentioned above. Is that correct? In that case, putting energy into fsogsmd sounds good to me; thanks!

New release of TclFltk and a couple of simple apps...
I have posted a new release of the TclFltk application development environment to the sourceforge.net web site (http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/fltkwish/). The current version is TclFltk-1.0.155-x and is available for Windows, Linux (rpm and deb) and the Openmoko Neo FreeRunner (ipk) This release contains a number of bug fixes, an additional 3D plot widget and some documentation improvements. I have also posted to the site a couple of applications for use on the FR. gravity-1.0 - Displays the local gravity vector as computed from the accelerometer data photos-1.0 - An image display and animation application for the FR These latter applications are in the form of binaries. Source code is available on the SF site in the form of .tcl files in the Openmoko sub-directory. You will need to install the .ipk files as they contain the supporting images, icons, etc needed to get the applications up. The source files can be run directly after you install the .ipk files by making them executable. These applications are O/S independent scripts and have been built and tested on SHR-U and various OM200x.X releases. Note that you MUST have the tcl environment installed on your machine, and you may possibly have to provide a soft link for libtcl8.4.so if it is not already there. This soft link should work fine on all releases of tcl. eg: On the FR: opkg install tcl cd /usr/lib ln -sf libtcl8.4.19.so libtcl8.4.so or something similar, depending on your setup. Note also that I install applications to /usr/local/bin, etc. If you don't have a /usr/local path, you may need to make that as well: for d in bin lib ; do mkdir -p /usr/local/$d ; done For support, e-mail ifindleton-no-sp...@videotron.ca With this package on your various platforms, you can develop applications in a platform independent context, then just move them where you want them to run.

Re: [all] reading accelerometers to a text file

If you want to see a somewhat evolved script to process accelerometer data, try gravity.tcl from: http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/fltkwish That script implements a few subtle aspects of the accelerometers, which are quite noisy in their output values. --Vikas ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
RE: [Shr-User] Quick e-mail poll: Still using your Freerunner?
Do you use FR as your daily/primary phone? Yes Do you use FR as your primary PDA? Yes What distribution you run most of the time? SHR-unstable. I upgrade often, except that I wait when others run into some new problem. Then I wait for resolution, which normally don't take long. If you don't use FR as your daily phone/PDA, what phone did you change over to, and why? If I change, it will be to correct various problems: * Buzz and bass problems. Can be fixed with capacitors, but that won't be free and it won't help with the slowness problem. A BT headset will probably solve my sound issues, and can be carried over to future phones. But it means an extra device to bring, and another battery to charge. :-/ * Slowness. Of course, the new SHR-U helped. And we may still see improvements in X and elsewhere. Still, it seems the device has a slow memory bus, a slow connection to its SDcard, and slow graphics. It is useable, but a really snappy phone could be tempting. IF it runs a user-modifiable linux, that is! Helge Hafting ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[shr-u 20091205] forcing timeoko to work
ahoy again list i often used timeoko in previous versions of shr-u. but in 20091205 when running timeoko i get: $ timeoko timeoko: error while loading shared libraries: libevas-ver-svn-02.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory the developer is MIA and im in need of a timer again. is there any way to force this application to load and be used? [ps, eieruhr still works but does not initiate an alarm.] ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

[...] Adjusting the call volume is a sorely missed feature, though. The new SHR-U has that for you. :-) [...] GPRS and WIFI are too unstable for any real connection, so no web or email. My experience is that GPRS has been stable for a long time, and WIFI is fine _if_ the phone don't suspend. So keep it on, either by plugging in power, or by turning suspend off in shr-settings. There is one annoying problem if several of GPRS/USB/WIFI is used - the last one to be used changes /etc/resolv.conf, and if that connection quits then the remaining ones may fail to look up names. Can be fixed by restarting the remaining connection. And bluetooth is just not there (no GUI == not there for the user). Does anyone else have trouble doing opkg ugrade over gprs? mine hangs after a bit. I never tried that - but make sure the thing doesn't suspend. Plug in power, or turn suspend off.
