[SHR-t] Some tips needed

2010-01-18 Thread Xavier Cremaschi
Hi folks,

I am back on SHR since yesterday, and I need some tips to tweak it a bit.

But firstly, kudos to SHR team for their work. I used SHR until 
September 2009, then QtMoko until December, then Android until 
yesterday. SHR was quite slow and needed some tweaking, but now -- 
testing branch 14 january 2010 -- everything works out of the box (GPS, 
wifi, phone, songs) and it's faster (even more if you put the new kernel 
without debug/preempt) and with nice volume controls while calling !

My questions (from most important to less one):
- phone goes to sleep mode when tangogps is up and running. How could I 
prevent that ? IIRC, there was a way to lock a hardware resource isn't it ?
- during a test call, my voice was a bit too loud. So I lowered the mic 
volume while calling and it was better, but I think this setting has not 
been saved. Is it normal ?
- desktop scrolling is still slow (alas), what were the effects to 
disable or the theme to use to make it a bit faster ?
- midori has huge scroll bars (why a horizontal one ?), is there a way 
to optimize the useful viewable area ? Or can you recommend any other 
browser maybe ?

Thanks in advance,
Xavier.

fsoraw -r CPU,Display tangogps
or just Display without CPU

 - during a test call, my voice was a bit too loud. So I lowered the mic

I don't know testing, but there was a while in unstable, when volume
settings were saved only after reboot. So try to set the volume and
reboot phone.
 - desktop scrolling is still slow (alas), what were the effects to

Do you have gry theme? It's quite fast i think. Try neo theme.
 - midori has huge scroll bars (why a horizontal one ?), is there a way

I don't have much time so a very quick response:

*preventing suspend: I think fsoraw is what you want (take a look at
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FSO_Resources)
*I don't think the sound settings are being saved atm
*using 16bit and no shadows, changing framerate and using faster kernel (no
debugging)
*browser: haven't tried it yet, but it looks promissing:

 Hi guys,
 
 I'm going to need a very safe smart phone for using it for investigative
 reporting. 
 
 So I have some questions before I'm going to get a Freerunner:
 
 1. Can you encrypt a LVM with luks like in Ubuntu? 
 
 2. Can you encrypt the whole phone / file-system? If not will it be
 possible in futere and is someone working on it?
 
It runs linux, so it is  able to do anything you can do with
linux. (Within the limited processing power of the device.)
You may have to set this up yourself though, I am
not aware of anyone experimenting with encrypted filesystems.


 3. Can you plug in an USB Cam (Like a Webcam) and use it to film
 (extremly important) on the crypted LVM? 
 
You can plug in any USB device that linux supports.  I don't know if the 
device is fast enough to actually encrypt and store a video stream 
though. You might want to consider a really small PC like an acerONE. It 
even has a built-in webcam.


 4. Mobile internet over GSM is working I think, or?
 
Yes, this works fine. GPRS isn't very fast though.

 5. Can you send the videostream / the videofile while you are recording
 via SSH (or something similar safe) to a server? The idea is, that when
 your phone is destroyed while filming you have at least the video until
 this moment.
Probably not over GPRS - not enough bandwith for video! Wifi has
enough bandwith, if you are within range of an access point.


 6. With Hackable:1 Rev5 Chuck you can easily turn down GSM. Your
 location can't be found when its turned of, or? Can you force the GSM to
 connect to a random, far away GSM tower/connection-station to confuse
 the observers about your position?

Turning off GSM means they can't find your position using the GSM 
network any more. They still know where you were, when you turned
it off though.

I am not sure you can force a connection to a faraway tower, and it
certainly won't help you. The other towers still see the better
signal strength, so your location is still known.


 
 We have serious problems in Europe with the freedom of the press so it
 would be great to use the freerunner with openmoko for helping freedom
 of the press.

What part of Europe would that be? Definitely not western Europe.

You can turn the X11 mouse cursor on, by changing /etc/X11/Xserver

You can then see how well the cursor track your pen.

Download all the maps you need once when you're online.
Tangogps will work fine offline after that.
(The same goes for navit - you have to give it a map

Touchscreen calibration with evdev

2010-01-18 Thread Mike Crash

I have upgraded my Debian system on GTA02 and found, that the new udev is not
compatible with current kernel in Debian. So I have compiled andy kernel and
also upgraded the X.org server with new version. All works fine, but I have
found, that new X is not using tslib, it loads simply evdev for touchscreen:

(II) config/udev: Adding input device s3c2410 TouchScreen
(/dev/input/event1)
(**) s3c2410 TouchScreen: always reports core events
(**) s3c2410 TouchScreen: Device: /dev/input/event1
(II) s3c2410 TouchScreen: Found absolute axes
(II) s3c2410 TouchScreen: Found x and y absolute axes
(II) s3c2410 TouchScreen: Found absolute touchscreen
(II) s3c2410 TouchScreen: Configuring as touchscreen
(**) s3c2410 TouchScreen: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
(**) s3c2410 TouchScreen: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10,
EmulateWhee
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device s3c2410 TouchScreen (type:

(**) s3c2410 TouchScreen: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1
(**) s3c2410 TouchScreen: (accel) acceleration profile 0
(II) s3c2410 TouchScreen: initialized for absolute axes.

But the calibration is gone and I don't know, how to calibrate it. At least
X and Y axis are reversed. I have tried this in xorg.conf, but it doesn't
help (it seems the section was not recognized):

Section InputDevice
Identifier  Configured Touchscreen
Driver  evdev
Option  Device /dev/input/event1
Option  AbsoluteScreen 0
Option  XAbsoluteAxisMap   1
Option  YAbsoluteAxisMap   0
EndSection

Does anybody know, how to calibrate the screen?

Thank you

Mike

widely used against both professional and amateur photographers[2], and are to 
continue[3] even though the European Court of Human Rights recently found it 
incompatible with European human rights laws[4].

movie playback on FR

2010-01-18 Thread William Kenworthy
My panasonic DMC-TZ15 takes some nice 640x480/ffmpegjpeg/30fps movies
as .MOV files that I would like to have on the FR - but of course they
play well on a desktop but are unplayable using mplayer (too much
bandwidth) on the FR.

So, what are the best settings to play something like this and how to
convert the files? (320x240, convert using mplayer/ffmpeg/transcode/or
what?).  Is it possible to keep 640x480 and tweak other parameters?

This is actually the first time I can remember trying to play a movie on
the FR in 18 months I have had it :)

I don't know what is causing gsm to not register, but it's not kernel, for 
sure.

Sometimes it registers for me and sometimes it doesn't, with both standard shr 
kernel and stripped kernel.
It seems registration is more frequent with standard kernel. 
Might it be for worse performance? (some daemon which starts before another one 
with stripped kernel, for example)

For me, it seems if you let FR boot with no iteration, it almost never 
register. If you do things (f.e. open an applicaiotn) just when illume desktop 
appears on display, it's more probable to obtain a registration.

Just my experience...

 I don't know what is causing gsm to not register, but it's not kernel, for
 sure.

 Sometimes it registers for me and sometimes it doesn't, with both standard
 shr kernel and stripped kernel.
 It seems registration is more frequent with standard kernel.
 Might it be for worse performance? (some daemon which starts before another
 one with stripped kernel, for example)

 For me, it seems if you let FR boot with no iteration, it almost never
 register. If you do things (f.e. open an applicaiotn) just when illume
 desktop appears on display, it's more probable to obtain a registration.

 Just my experience...

And sometimes, but only sometimes, when not registered on boot, I can force 
registration simply by rebooting libphoneui from shr-settings
Sometimes it doesn't matter what daemon you reboot. It doesn't register :(

I had the same behaviour with my FR: GSM was only availlable a very few times 
booting the experimental kernel. No Problems acured with the latest shr-u 
kernel, however. My last try was to use QI unstead of u-boot, and GSM got 
connected, I will try another reboot an report if it still works.

Re: [QtMoko] How to update TangoGPS maps?

Thanks guys, but the problem is that Yaouh is packaged in an .ipk package, and 
QtMoko is based on Debian. AFAIK, ipk couldn't be installed on Debian, and 
Yaouh is not available in .deb packages... :(

 Sometimes it doesn't matter what daemon you reboot. It doesn't register :(

I just managed to force the registering by giving the FR sth. to work and then 
restart phonefsod. So it seems that there is really a timing problem, which 
would explain why the problem occurs more often with the faster kernel...

Can you check what is actually crashing? The framework? phoneuid? I
will update the framework later. There were some changes in opimd
since the last Debian package.

actually, it really seems to be only the contacts app itself. messages and

phoneuid log and phonefsod log are both silent about that, although set to

Can you install gdb and check for the segfault reason?

shh freerunner

You should install libphoneui-shr-dbg and libphoneui0-dbg before,
though.

Is glamo-based mplayer really something that should be packaged? I
thought it direcly accessed the hardware and could thus mess things up
pretty badly with X? Or is this something else than the very first

I'm certain it's happened every time that I've rebooted (which is 2 or

noticeable, because it's the first (and in fact only) message when the

The state file is: /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/gsmhandset.state

I use vim to edit the state file on my FreeRunner.

“control.48” is the mic gain.  Set the value to 3 (the maximum).

After I changed this single value, people could hear me better, even 
when I hold the mouthpiece relatively far from my mouth.

Note:  I am still using QtMoko v14, so I do not know if the state

OT: gender-neutral English usage (was Re: OT: Where can I meet a female companion with similar interests and personality /in person/?)

2010-01-18 Thread Brolin Empey
Juan Lucas Dominguez Rubio wrote:
 No we dont have a neutral gender in Spanish, but the Spanish for 'his'
 and 'her' is the same ('su') so we don't have that problem:
 'his/her Freerunner' == 'su Freerunner'

Spanish is still patriarchal, though:  plural nouns are masculine unless 
all the members are female.

AFAIK, German has a neutral gender in addition to masculine and 
feminine, but I know even less about German than Spanish.

 As for English, I prefer 'their' rather than 'his/her'.

I prefer to preserve distinction between singular and plural forms, 
which means using “he/his/him or she/hers/her” for singular and 
“they/theirs/them” for plural.

 I wonder how
 this issue was solved in the past. Such a usual problem must have been
 solved centuries ago in the English literature, no?

It was “solved” in a patriarchal style by using masculine terms as 
gender-neutral terms, which I think is wrong even though I am male.  See 
http://people.mills.edu/spertus/Gender/pap/pap.html.

 And yes, this is totally off-topic,

Hence the “OT: ” prefix in the Subject.  Why would anyone complain about 
off-topic subjects in a thread clearly marked as off-topic? (fail)  If 
you do not want to read off-topic discussions, avoid reading threads 
clearly marked as such!

 and the where-can-I-meet-a-female
 topic is totally ridiculous and bad taste

Why?  Please support your claim.  My question was not simply “Where can 
I meet a female?”, but “Where can I meet a female *companion with 
similar interests and personality /in person/?*”  Did you even read my 
original post in this thread?  Please understand I do not intend to be 
harsh and/or belligerent.  However, I find your reasoning/logic faulty.

 and I think the list
 administrator (if there is one) should do something about it.

Such as?  Are you suggesting censorship of a list about a project to 
free the cellular/mobile phone?  If yes, I find that highly ironic.

Even if the list administrator changed or removed this thread, it would 
be too late because this thread has already been copied to many 
unofficial archives and members’s mailboxes.

I /do/ have 12 and 5 near maximum:

IIRC, QtEI must be restarted.

Hi,
  I'm using timo's .29 faster kernel. I had the gsm not registering with
this kernel using fso-abyss. Somehow, in my case (though I've has #1024 and
buzz fix applied) using gsm0710muxd always works.
  fso-abyss is very temperamental - but sometimes starts working all of a
sudden.
