QtMoko v39 for GTA04
Hi, you can now download QtMoko v39 from here [1]. For more info about QtMoko please visit our homepage [2]. Changes since previous version are: * gta04-gsm-voice-routing for gsm voice calls on GTA04 * fixed cruxus to close pcm device when not used * powering up modem with gpio186 on GTA04A04 in qpe.sh * remaped long AUX button function to short POWER * 3.2 kernel with gpio186 enabled From the user point of view most important is, that you will now have sound in incoming call - i have fixed the bug where pcm device was not closed after playing ringtone. Voice routing is now done in C program. I have for now enabled the output from the program on /dev/tty0 which means that you will see text over QtMoko GUI during call. It's quite nice for debugging and to see if call is still in progress (the routing indicator stops rotating after remote party hangs up). You can disable the output if you edit /opt/qtmoko/qpe.env and comment out this line: export GSM_VOICE_ROUTING_LOGFILE=/dev/tty0 One thing that needs fixing is earpiece and speaker volume. Earpiece is too low and speaker is too loud. But you can quite easily adjust them to your needs. Just launch alsamixer during call and when done do: alsactl -f /opt/qtmoko/etc/alsa/gsmearpiece.state store or alsactl -f /opt/qtmoko/etc/alsa/gsmspeaker.state store Since this version QtMoko does not need AUX button. Mine has broken (the same is on my Freerunner) and i never liked it's ergonomy. Now the screen with running apps is brought with short POWER press. You have to suspend the phone by locking screen (and setting suspend interval in Power Management under When locked). Btw if you ever have the same problem with broken AUX, you might take a look here [4]. It's modified boot.scr so that it always shows the nice bootmenu where you can select booting from NAND/SD. For installing QtMoko to NAND please check this [5] (Step 12 - jffs2) and this [6]. It would be nice if someone could test this version on GTA04A04.

Re: Microtouch
With an Atmel it sounds like a dancing bear to me; it has so little memory that you basically have to use it only for fixed purposes, like the games they show. No dynamic languages or possibility of downloading much content. And also no GPU.

It appears you can now buy the Ben Nanonote from a U.S. retailer: http://www.amazon.com/NanoNote-copyleft-hardware-pocket-computer/dp/B0064URJNQ It costs less this way ($94 including shipping, if you don't mind it taking a few extra days to arrive) and you don't have to deal with offshore banks and shippers. (But you do have to deal with Amazon...) (In recent times, the only times I have had money stolen from my accounts have been immediately after dealing directly with companies in other countries. To their credit, Sharism does appear to be making serious efforts to prevent these kinds of things, and before they shipped my Nanonote I even got a personal email from someone at Sharism discussing the identity theft issue.) ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
FOSDEM 2012 - Presentation online
To all, Due to traffic jams on my way to Brussels I did not make it on time for our to FOSDEM presentation. The snow had something to do with it. But we shared the slide deck for review with all contributors, so people of Golden Delicious also had a golden copy ;-) Someone from Nikolaus' team took over, so the presentation went ahead as planned. Thanks Nikolaus. The slides are also available online for download on the AoF project page. http://code.google.com/p/android-on-freerunner/ Feel free to distribute further.
