It does not use X server. I uses qt painter that is drawing to framebuffer as all other qtmoko apps. A really big thanks for this. Navit seems much more reactive on qtmoko than on SHR.

On Saturday 17 December 2011 22:44:36 Bernie Schelberg wrote: Hi, About two weeks ago, my GTA02 stopped sending SMS messages. I was running QtMoko v35 at the time, on a Kingston uSD card. Running dmesg while trying to send messages revealed this error: [ 4171.93] mmc0:0001: error -110 reading SDIO_CCCR_INTx Thinking that my uSD card had failed (I'd had it for just over a year), I bought another one (A-Ram), set up a fresh install of QtMoko, upgraded to v37, tried to send another message, and see the same error in dmesg. At this point I'm assuming it's not a fault of the uSD card. Is it hardware? There doesn't seem to be any problem writing to the uSD card... On fail of sending message, the message is moved into Drafts, which works nicely. Is it a problem with my SIM card? It's only about 5 months old. Are there any other logs I can look at to find out what's happening? Is this something I can fix in the software, or should I just get another phone for use until the GTA04 is released? Hi, have you tried running QtMoko from NAND? You can try various Settings- Logging-Categories and check /var/log/messages if something interesting shows up.

Hi Radek, this are great news with gpsd. I have never got it working with X. Do you want to release a QT moko 38 version for NAND. Using the freerunner as a full navigation system would be great :). Since you have probably the GTA04 board inside your freerunner, can you power it without the case?

Replicant for GTA04? (Was WebOS for GTA04?)
After HP announced to open source WebOS I wonder what we need to get it onto a GTA04 device? And is there already a clear picture how completely the source will be opened? Under which licence? And which limitations? Which timeframe? Questions over questions... Let's discuss answers... Why not porting Replicant to it too? Replicant is a fully free android version: * The non-free low level libraries are replaced by free equivalents * The market is replaced by FDroid When I was involved in it we freed some devices like the htc dream and the nexus one but we then realized that the devices themselves were the problem: The modem in theses device had too much power(it controlled the sound card, the GPS and could read/write on RAM of the main CPU). So then the current main developer ported the nexus S to it which is way better: * The audio codec is attached to the main CPU * the GPS is attached to the main CPU * The modem can't read/write the RAM of the main CPU and cannot read/write the NAND either however it suffer from a proprietary and partially signed bootloader. The GTA04 has none of theses freedom problems... Denis. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Here is the screen of kernel panic. http://file.qip.ru/photo/NTlrXV05/uboot_gena2x-qtmoko_v36-kernel.html This probably won't be too helpful since I'm not using ubifs but I've experienced a couple of kernel panics recently. Albeit with far less verbose results than yours, perhaps ubifs is more verbose(?), but I get similar results as in not being able to mount the FS; jffs2 on NAND(qtmoko v31) and ext3 on sd(AoF Froyo [ran sd card build]). I blame that particular sd card for the AoF failure since it's the original that shipped with the phone and this isn't the first time it's given me trouble. I was at least able to backup what was left of the data after attempting to repair the FS. It booted afterwards but too much was missing to make it usable. It's been quite frustrating dealing with the NAND failure as I loved that install (~1yr old) and spent quite a bit of time tweaking it. So far I can't figure out a way to copy what's left of the data I haven't backed up. Even after using the latest dfu-util, compiled from source, uploading from the phone to another machine is *sigh* still broken. Using neocon via the U-boot prompt hasn't been too much help either (great tool though). There apparently are bad blocks on NAND but only 4 if I recall correctly. I copied that session to another box so I can't share the info from it right now. Perhaps you might fare better checking your NAND partitions.
