Hi, AFAIK you can edit Openmoko wiki without being logged in. However, it's always better to register your own account for credibility. :-) Martix 2011/2/5 Benjamin Deering ben_deer...@swissmail.org: Hello All, I think this project is working well enough to share: http://jeepingben.homelinux.net/barom/ This project uses the bmp085 barometer to show either weather or altitude.

But your theme makes me feel like trying QtMoko again. There is also theme called asthromod, which is very beutiful too. The problem with themes is that they are quite big to be all in default instalation and i tried to solve this this weekend. My idea is to extend the appearence dialog with button or option get more themes which will preview all themes that we have and you can install new theme with single click. The problem is how to package them. First i tried to make theme packages with qtopia package system which looked promising (package was created easily), but then it turned out that this package system can install only to /home/root/packages and needs executable binary. So for now my plan is to make .deb package for each theme. I started learning debian packaging system and now i think i can do it. While learning debian packaging i made source package of qtmoko [1]. It does not have correct dependencies, but otherwise you can build qtmoko .deb package on PC host for ARM target. It's also possible to modify it for ARM package on ARM host (pass some more arguments to configure as described here [3]). While we are at it we could probably package all other qtmoko apps as .deb packages.

Al Johnson píše v Pá 04. 02. 2011 v 13:46 +: How did you pick 0.5mV as a suitable input amplitude? Measurement of peaks when talking? It was completely wrong! I did some internet search and found that micropohone like that in FR usually produce signal with amplitude in tens of mV. I was wondering if the singal was only 0.5mV it wouldn't probalby get distorted so easily - so I went to check my generator and saw that the attenuator was set incorrectly and so the signal was probably way higher than 0.5mV. I was doing bass-fix to my Freerunner today so I did the the same measurement with generator again. I run Voice notes and set the generator so that the amplitude was simmilar to the amplitude of voice, captured by the microphone. LAter on I was listening to the files recorded when setting the generator and the 1kHz beep was clean and the volume was OK. I rewrite the text and put there all pictures from the scope I made. http://hnet.endofinternet.net/elektro/Freerunner/ALSA/sound_setting.html Seems that the sidetone may be set to 2 instead of 1, but mic should stay 0.

FOSDEM 2011
Hi list, I just returned from FOSDEM 2011. The GTA04 team had a seat available at the boot, so I spend most of my time showing the semi-/demi-populated GTA04-boards to the masses, explaining the various uses of the Navigation board, introducing even more people to the Openmoko-concept or just refreshing the collective memories (oh, is that project still alive? Great!). Asthro has been repairing/bug fixing some units, including two of mine, thanks a lot again! The openembedded guys and Tux Brains were squeezed in between the Openmoko/GTA04 samples and the phone doctor, and came up with the suggestion on the mailinglist earlier: lets team up with neighbouring (embedded) projects next year and get a room. Well, looking back to a great weekend. Nice to see some of you in person!

Re: qtmoko v32 (experimental)
Hi, I replaced my v31 by v32 a few days ago. BT seems to run, although I hear nothing in my handsfree set. But it may be just wrong volume settings. But file transfer, etc. works fine. I was trying to run NAvit and QX asked me whether to install Xorg server or Xglamo. I did choose Xorg server ... ... when R(apt)or finished installation I was trying to run Navit but Xorg server didn't load ... Xorg. log is attached. Thx for any help, BTW... USB host mode is also working. I was using PL2303 based USBtoRS232 converter and worked fine. Although I had to modprobe pl2303 first. zb.
