  Arne,
 
  You're right. So, please forgive the length of this post:
 
  those entirely tangogps related mails are filling up my account and have
  nothing to do with openmoko.
 
  please, stop abusing other projects infrastructure for your personal
 needs.
 
  I really hadn't intended this to get this crazy, when I posted
  asking Marcus what facilities were available to keep up what he's
  doing upstream and to communicate with the rest of the
  tangoGPS-hacking community.
 
  When I asked those questions, they were intended to be quick and easy
  to answer--and the expected quick exchange was indeed relevant to the
  Openmoko community, since there are so many people here who have been
  using and hacking on tangoGPS (or at least trying to).
 
  But it's devolved into high-traffic tiff with upstream just calling
  people names, and everyone else sharing their *frustrations*.
 
  I don't know if Marcus has actually *watched* (or at least listened to)
  that video that he referenced earlier in the thread (in message-ID
  2010010653.776db...@acer, if anyone actually wants to go re-read
  the whole discussion in gmane or something):
 
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSFDm3UYkeE
 
 
  ... but we all should watch it--it's pretty good.
 
 
  As they say, the community mailing-list isn't a group therapy session.
  It's clear that we're not getting anywhere, anyway.
 
 
  So, here goes: I'm forking tangoGPS.
 
  And this doesn't make me a `poisonous person'. This fork is being done
  with all possible respect, and I do still hope that it will be on the
  best possible terms--perhaps like when EGCS forked from GCC, or when
  people `fork' the Linux kernel to work on new subsystems: a good-natured
  fork to do more `experimental' exploration that may not be immediately
  possible or appropriate for Marcus in tangoGPS. Marcus will be free to
  incorporate whatever work we do on this new fork into future releases
  of tangoGPS, if he likes--on whatever timeline he likes; he'll also
  be free to ignore the parts that he doesn't like. As will everyone else.
 
  We're going to have a go at integrating libgps, for example.
 
 
  I'm going to try to do my best to provide a sense of leadership and
  direction on this new project (let's call it foxtrotGPS--I'm sure we
  can find many reasons for that name; I already have a slew of my own :)),
  and to be responsive when people submit patches for review (and hopefully
  inclusion). Even for people whose patches don't go upstream, we'll have
  a Bazaar VCS repository that you can use to keep track of what we're
  doing upstream and help maintain your patches (branches) going forward.
 
  If anyone's interested in relevant public discussion on foxtrotGPS,
  we have the foss-gps mailing list hosted by the folks at OSGeo:
 
 http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS-GPS
 
  Thank you, Risto, for asking them create it :)
 
 
  Marcus: if you would like to talk about why I feel the need to fork
  your project and am proceeding despite my afore-mentioned reluctance--
  and what, if anything, it means to you--we can talk about that privately.
 
  Let me know, and I'll give you my telephone-number--e-mail just doesn't
  seem to have enough bandwidth for us; I'd *really* prefer if we could
  keep things cordial and professional between our two projects.
 
 
  So, here we go. It'll be an adventure.
  We can dance if we want to.
 
 
  I know some people are probably going to be very excited by this news,
  but it takes a couple of days to get a fork properly bootstrapped--
  it's not *just* `run through the codebase and change names' :)
 
  So please be patient, let your passions cool a *little* bit,
  and there will be something to show this weekend.
 
 
  Thank you, all.
 
  (And thank you, Marcus, especially!)

 Thanks, I was waiting for that since start of that discussion. If I
 were more interested in GPS apps, then I would do that myself ;) But
 doing something I won't be able to continue just to show something to
 someone would be a non-sense.

 Code available in some decent version control system is a must have to
 me when I'm contributing to some project, and in my opinion not having
 such SCM is good reason to fork.

 I wish both of projects good, as I like TangoGPS, but I don't like
 fact, that it doesn't have any public SCM available for read only
 access. I hope everything from FoxtrotGPS that can be merged into
 TangoGPS will be merged, and thanks to that both projects will become
 better.

 The first few boots were no problem, today I rebooted my phone again,

 Any ideas where to start looking?

Yesterday i was working on qtmoko and was doing restarts very often. First 
attempt was always No network, second was usually ok, sometimes i needed 3rd 
attempt.

I wonder if this is some timing issue or if it's also related e.g. to GSM 
signal strength. It could be timing, because when i build qtmoko without voip 
(which slightly changes timing) i think the registration was more successful.

I could upload somewhere version without voip if you would like to try. 
Otherwise there can be something in the log if you enable the correct 
category.

Or you can disable multiplexing and it should be working 100%, You can do it 
by editing

/opt/qtmoko/etc/default/Trolltech/Modem.conf

and setting Multiplexing to no

For me it said No network every time. I tried restarting about 10
times. Then I flashed v20 - this one always registers to the GSM
succesfully.

[qtmoko] roadmap for v22 and later

2010-04-14 Thread Radek Polak
Hi,
i was asked to post a roadmap for next qtmoko versions. Here are my plans:

- fix battery/power supply detection
- power settings when screen is locked (already done)
- neocontrol application (can be used to enable deep sleep, tweak alsa, watch 
and set sysfs, set date from ntp and do other stuff from GUI.
- nice and big and usable default keyboard
- bluetooth headsets - for audio and calls (both somehow work from command 
line now).
- move to 2.6.32 - this is probably more long term task

2010-04-14 Thread ghislain

Radek, 
I found that the problems with getting a network connection got worse since
you moved the initialisation from the init-scripts to the code. When I
revert that patch the initialisation goes fine (because of the sleep 2 sec
in the script? or maybe just the moment of init?)

BTW, I have an installer-image on for the V21 [1]

Re: Forking TangoGPS - a digest why this is a silly fork

2010-04-14 Thread Marcus Bauer


I certainly haven't had the intent to add another post to this but
because the parent post is featured on fsdaily and people following
that link there want a quick reply:

 * tangoGPS is committed to quality and excellent user expierence is the
   key of the development focus

 * tangoGPS is open to contributions, everybody can grab the
   tarball, put it in a VCS of choice and send patches

 * tangoGPS is actively maintained and experimental features are a part
   of innovation and ongoing development


 * the forkers have so far submitted *two* patches which were not
   accepted because they were very low quality, introducing several
   bugs and at least one crasher

 * the forkers compare themselves to egcs ./. gcc, however that fork was
   done by long-standing, active contributors that shared a major part
   of the development work

 * open source projects are based on meristocracy, the longer and the
   more a developer or user contributes, the more influence he gains.
   Its a very simple and powerful concept.


The tangoGPS project has been a huge success, it runs now on over
40 distributions and on a large variety of platforms, from handheld
devices like the Freerunner, the Nokia N810 and N900, the smartQ5 and
smartQ7, as well as on netbooks, laptops and even the AS/390...

The success has only been possible due to the cooperation with the Open
Source ecosystem at large, and has been featured in articles on major
websites like linux.com.

An estimate from the webserver logs shows a user base far beyond
100.000 and the friendservice has been used over a million times.

The project is now in its fourth year of development and contributions
are as always very welcome.

A big thank you for all the support I have got from the community, the
development of a fast, easy to use and user oriented app will continue :)

Would qtmoko be interested in using omhacks for this? It is already in

om gps power 1

om gps power 0

It supports multiple kernel paths and autodetects them.

If I start/stop some directfb programs, the 2rd or 3rd time I start one they
hang in the last ioctl, see below

open(/dev/fb0, O_RDWR)= 8
fcntl64(8, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
setsid()= 1655
open(/dev/tty0, O_RDONLY|O_NOCTTY)= 9
ioctl(9, VT_GETSTATE, 0xbed0e5da)   = 0

ioctl(9, VIDIOC_G_COMP or VT_ACTIVATE, 0x8) = 0
ioctl(9, VIDIOC_S_COMP or VT_WAITACTIVE

The fd 9 is probably the tty0 and 8 is /dev/fb0. I know if it would hang on
ioctl(fb0) then drm would seem more guilty

However this behaviour was not there before the patch for ~150 pixels

- In v21 alarm clock does not work, is triggered when will come out of
hibernation
- GoogleContactSync ever passes phone numbers if they are not alone in
contact. We have to make hands FR
- Settings/Call option/Call volume when restarting stored in $HOME/Settings
etc, but not restored.
- Contacts in Dialer do not have the right shortcut on the first letter or
Search fields as SMS-Contacts
- Field From/To in Dialer does not display the number, only the name

DESCRIPTION
   om  provides  a  command line interface to various OpenMoko specific
   pieces of hardware.  Note that om talks directly to the  kernel  and
   might  not  properly co-exist with fso-frameworkd that also wants to
   control the same pieces of hardware. However, using om to  read  the
   state of the hardware should be safe even when using fso-frameworkd.

OPTIONS
   om backlight
  Read  backlight  brightness.  This is an integer between zero
  and what om backlight get-max returns. Reports  true  bright-
  ness  only  if the screen has not been blanked with om screen
  power 0.

   om backlight get-max
  Get maximum value of brightness, usually 255.

   om backlight brightness
  Set backlight brightness.

   om touchscreen lock
  Locks touchscreen and waits for any signal to unlock it. This
  is useful when you want to keep the phone running in a pocket
  and don't want the backlight to turn on every time you  acci-
  dentally touch the screen. Locking is done in a way that does
  not depend on X so if X  server  crashes  and  restarts  your
  screen will still stay locked.

   om screen power [1/0]
  Reads  or  sets the power state of the screen. Note that Xorg
  and fso-frameworkd do not know how to read the  power  status
  of  the screen (frameworkd reads it on startup only). If Xorg
  turns the screen and after that you turn the screen off  with
  omhacks  then  touching  the  screen won't turn the screen on
  (Xorg thinks the screen is still on and does  not  bother  to
  try to power it on).

   om bt [--swap] power [1/0]
  Reads or sets the power state of bluetooth. Bluetooth is con-
  nected to USB bus so it might take a while for it  to  appear
  in lsusb and be usable after power on.

   om power
  List the power status of various devices.

   om power all-off
  Disable power to bluetooth, GSM, GPS and WLAN.

   om gsm [--swap] power [1/0]
  Reads or sets the power state of GSM.

   om gsm flowcontrol [1/0]
  Reads  or sets the state of GSM flowcontrol. When flowcontrol
  is enabled GSM chip will generate an interrupt  when  it  has
  data and will not try to send it over serial port until flow-
  control is disabled. Enabling flowcontrol before suspend  and
  disabling it after resume is required to make sure no data is
  lost during suspend.

   om gps [--swap] power [1/0]
  Reads or sets the power state of GPS.

   om gps [--swap] keep-on-in-suspend [1/0]
  Reads or sets the flag that causes GPS  to  stay  powered  on
  during  suspend.  This  is useful if you want to keep GPS fix
  during suspend.

   om gps send-ubx class type [payload_byte0] [payload_byte1] ...
  Send arbitrary UBX protocol command to the GPS chip.   Please
  read  ANTARIS_Protocol_Specification(GPS.G3-X-03002).chm to
  understand the protocol. Here are examples of  commands  that
  are tested to work:

false stamentent on http://www.enlightenment.org ?

The Openmoko Freerunner http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo_FreeRunner sold
thousands of devices with EFL on them.

Maybe I am wrong, but the default software was never with EFL, or? I suppose
no reseller changed the software etc

Well the statement is really ambiguous, but however you take it it is false.
If so, EFL guys, please change (I am sure they tapped the list :) ). Or am I
wrong?

It was. The 2008 software release was a hybrid composed out of Qtopia/X

Re: Forking TangoGPS - a digest why this is a silly fork

2010-04-14 Thread neomilium
Hello,

First, as I'm not (fortunately, yes fortunately) a well-know guy as
you are, I must introduce myself: I'm a simple user, free/libre
software fan who haven't contribute to anything, who did nothing
relevant for OpenMoko FreeRunner or whatever. You can say anything
about my ignorance, you're right.

So, why would I reply to this mail, huh ? Because, I want to share my
enthusiasm to see a tangoGPS fork born... finally.

2010/4/14 Marcus Bauer marcus.ba...@gmail.com:
 I certainly haven't had the intent to add another post to this but
 because the parent post is featured on fsdaily and people following
 that link there want a quick reply:
I think that was better for you without this mail.

  * tangoGPS is committed to quality and excellent user expierence is the
   key of the development focus
Quality ? I tried few times tangoGPS (at least 6 month ago) and once,
nothing happen on GUI while I'm touching GUI, so I had launch it from
console and I saw messages like this should not happen, and I said
Ok, ok ok... this SHOULD not happen..., my bad luck, of course.
Excellent user experience ? User experience is relative... so no more
on this point.

  * tangoGPS is open to contributions
Huh? I'm reading (and hearing) since at least a year about your way to
handle code and patches... and I was supposing that was a rumour, but
now I can say that's quite old... for a rumour.

 everybody can grab the
 tarball, put it in a VCS of choice and send patches
Interesting approach, so you don't want someone fork tangoGPS, but you
are ok to leave tangoGPS to be manage outside the main stream... very
interesting. Is it a new way to make free/libre software ?

  * tangoGPS is actively maintained and experimental features are a part
   of innovation and ongoing development
oO ! Interesting again... Usually free/libre software haven't to do
all this marketing to be used... Did you tried to convince yourself ?

  * the forkers have so far submitted *two* patches which were not
   accepted because they were very low quality, introducing several
   bugs and at least one crasher
Easy to say... but we can't say ourself : VCS and bugtracker is
missing... too bad.

  * the forkers compare themselves to egcs ./. gcc, however that fork was
   done by long-standing, active contributors that shared a major part
   of the development work
I was thinking the forker were tried to develop how their hands were
(are?) opened to you... or It's maybe me (again), I probably
misunderstood something...

  * open source projects are based on meristocracy,
You're right ! Yeah... that's maybe the reason of fork.

 The tangoGPS project has been a huge success, it runs now on over
 40 distributions and on a large variety of platforms, from handheld
 devices like the Freerunner, the Nokia N810 and N900, the smartQ5 and
 smartQ7, as well as on netbooks, laptops and even the AS/390...
Oh! Amazing... As you are the only one developer... the god of
tangoGPS, do you maintain all that packages ? Or did you fight against
the maintainer when he/she put some distribution's patches ?

 The success has only been possible due to the cooperation with the Open
 Source ecosystem at large, and has been featured in articles on major
 websites like linux.com.
The first valuable argument... many people works in free/libre world,
I would like to send big thanks to all them these guys and women who
are silently contribute to this beautiful underground world...

 An estimate from the webserver logs shows a user base far beyond
 100.000 and the friendservice has been used over a million times.
How many times you read your logs a day ? Do you congratulate you each
times or only when there are ten more ?

 The project is now in its fourth year of development and contributions
 are as always very welcome.
Its seems to not be the case as said before.

 A big thank you for all the support I have got from the community, the
 development of a fast, easy to use and user oriented app will continue :)
Many users want to have a VCS, a bugtracker, etc. but you refuse to do
it each time, so could you reasonably talk about user oriented app ?

I know that's a flaming mail... I want to apologize to all users who
don't care about these stupid stuff...

But, Marcus, please give more respect to guys who really want to do
something more free/libre (I don't talk about me but forkers, patch
submitters, etc) and stop to be publicly aggressive against people
that don't think same as you.

Finally, I hope the best for free/libre softwares included tangoGPS
and his fork(s).

My first and last 2 cents about this subject.

PS: Excuse my poor english language.

Yes, this way it works. I added the line echo 0

Is xserver-xorg-video-glamo freezy for anyone else than just me?

2010-04-14 Thread Neil Jerram
I've raised this rather vaguely a couple of times before, and IIRC no
one else said that they see similar problems.  This time I'll try to
be clear and so hopefully attract a more definitive response.

Simply, whenever I try switching to glamo for a while (instead of
fbdev), I find that my phone freezes after a while: the screen and
buttons are unresponsive, and I can't ssh in.  My only recourse is to
pull out the battery - which is of course a concern, as I could then
be corrupting the filesystem.

It seems completely random, and not associated with any particular
action.  Today, for example, it happened very quickly after booting
up:
- boot up and wait for UI to appear
- click on keyboard icon to bring up the matchbox keyboard
- click on Ctrl, Alt, and X - which should bring up an xterm
- freeze.
On other occasions, that same sequence works find.  Some times the
freeze happens after a day or more of use.

I see this in Debian, which is my main distro.  I also see it whenever
I decide to try SHR again - and it effectively prevents me from being
able to try SHR for very long.  (In Debian, I can just switch back to
fbdev.)

Does anyone else see this?
If not, I'm guessing it could be caused by a specific hardware fault
on my phone - any ideas on how I might investigate that further?
Once in the frozen state, is there anything better/safer to do than
pulling out the battery?

Many thanks!

 Neil

QTMoko - Diffuculty trying to mount sd as USB

2010-04-14 Thread swoody
Well, I've been trying my darnedest to get the sd card in my phone to
mount as a USB drive. I have been Googling and trying to use this guide
from the wiki to no avail:
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Using_the_Neo_as_an_USB_Mass_storage_device

When I try to mount the /media/card I get an error that it's not found.
Fair enough, I run 'fdisk -l' and the only information listed is my
internal drive. I was able to see that the device is recognized by my
computer:

[ 1959.576070] usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and
address 3
[ 1959.791253] usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 2 choices
[ 1959.800462] eth2: register 'cdc_ether' at usb-:00:1d.2-2, CDC
Ethernet Device, 00:1f:11:01:13:f6


The next step, I then run 'rmmod g_ether', that module isn't existent. So
through dmesg I find the driver which is active, and I tried disabling
that: rmmod cdc_ether This is the only command which didn't give me an
error message.

On the last command (modprobe g_file_storage file=/dev/mmcblk0 stall=0), I
get the output:
FATAL: Error inserting g_file_storage
(/lib/modules/2.6.32-21-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/g_file_storage.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
After checking dmesg again, I now see:
[ 1830.381547] g_file_storage gadget-lun0: unable to open backing file:
/dev/mmcblk0


I'm nearly at my wits end here. I don't have access to a card reader, and
I tried setting up 3 different phones (non-FR's) as USB drives, but each
one has it's own unique issue. So I'm left hoping someone out there may be
able to help me out with this. I would really appreciate any ideas you all
may have. Thanks in advance!

It looks like a kernel/module problem from the name of the kernel I'll
assume you compiled yourself. Did you copy new modules over when you
did? I have never had luck with 2.6.32 and mass storage mode. Try it
with 2.6.29. other tips, if you have a swap partition on SD make sure
it's off. Make sure your distro is on NAND and not on SD (I think there
is a way to make it work from SD but so far I've only used
g_file_storage from a distro on nand). Failing that, try older versions
of qtmoko kernel (assuming you're on qtmoko and remember to use the
appropriate modules). 

Assuming all that fails, use latest shr-testing, I know for a fact it
works on this. If it doesn't work with shr-testing you're doing
something wrong.

What I usually feel is that this kind of mails would need
few lines more :

What is ventura? What are its features?
How to use it?
Do you have a link of some screenshot?
Do you have a link of some short ventura video?

Often there are similar mails explaining some new features of
differents new apps versions, but because I do not
read all the mails I do not know, from time to time,
what thing those mails are showing.

Re: QTMoko - Diffuculty trying to mount sd as USB

 Well, I've been trying my darnedest to get the sd card in my phone to
 mount as a USB drive. I have been Googling and trying to use this guide
 from the wiki to no avail:
 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Using_the_Neo_as_an_USB_Mass_storage_device

 When I try to mount the /media/card I get an error that it's not found.
 Fair enough, I run 'fdisk -l' and the only information listed is my
 internal drive. I was able to see that the device is recognized by my
 computer:

 [ 1959.576070] usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and
 address 3
 [ 1959.791253] usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 2 choices
 [ 1959.800462] eth2: register 'cdc_ether' at usb-:00:1d.2-2, CDC
 Ethernet Device, 00:1f:11:01:13:f6


 The next step, I then run 'rmmod g_ether', that module isn't existent.
 So
 through dmesg I find the driver which is active, and I tried disabling
 that: rmmod cdc_ether This is the only command which didn't give me an
 error message.

 On the last command (modprobe g_file_storage file=/dev/mmcblk0 stall=0),
 I
 get the output:
 FATAL: Error inserting g_file_storage
 (/lib/modules/2.6.32-21-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/g_file_storage.ko):
 Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
 After checking dmesg again, I now see:
 [ 1830.381547] g_file_storage gadget-lun0: unable to open backing file:
 /dev/mmcblk0


 I'm nearly at my wits end here. I don't have access to a card reader,
 and
 I tried setting up 3 different phones (non-FR's) as USB drives, but each
 one has it's own unique issue. So I'm left hoping someone out there may
 be
 able to help me out with this. I would really appreciate any ideas you
 all
 may have. Thanks in advance!

 It looks like a kernel/module problem from the name of the kernel I'll
 assume you compiled yourself. Did you copy new modules over when you
 did? I have never had luck with 2.6.32 and mass storage mode. Try it
 with 2.6.29. other tips, if you have a swap partition on SD make sure
 it's off. Make sure your distro is on NAND and not on SD (I think there
 is a way to make it work from SD but so far I've only used
 g_file_storage from a distro on nand). Failing that, try older versions
 of qtmoko kernel (assuming you're on qtmoko and remember to use the
 appropriate modules).

 Assuming all that fails, use latest shr-testing, I know for a fact it
 works on this. If it doesn't work with shr-testing you're doing
 something wrong.



I still couldn't get it to work with an older version of QTMoko, so I
installed shr-testing on the nand, and it worked beautifully. I think I'm
going to keep shr on the phone, and then install QTMoko onto the sd card
afterall. Thanks again for the nudge in the right direction :)

 Yes, this way it works. I added the line echo 0 
 /sys/devices/platform/gta02-pm-gps.0/power_on to
 /opt/qtmoko/bin/gps-poweron.sh before the echo 1 line. But it still
 doesn't power on automatically when I start tangoGPS.

Margo, could you document the whole process, what did you install,
what did you changed to make tangogps runsee gps, in
http://qtmoko.org/wiki/Manual for others to find, too?

Thanks!

Re: [QtMoko] Debian package for v21

2010-04-14 Thread Yoric Kotchukov

A couple of questions please:

1) What about the internal package QtMoko in this case? codecs eyepiece
gqsync qtpedometr etc? Remove  HOME / packages and reinstall?

2) Due to the fact that the kernel / modules are not standard packages
debian, as they update? Reflashing kernel  scp modules?
dpkg-S / lib/modules/2.6.29-rc3-v21/kernel/block/cfq-iosched.ko
dpkg: / lib/modules/2.6.29-rc3-v21/kernel/block/cfq-iosched.ko not found

While all))

Thank you for your attention.

 Is that SHR just too old, would you say?

Hi,

I'm sorry, I was sure only for SHR-U not SHR-T..  
I've built it in SHR-T feeds now too.
