any suggestions for usb linux microscope ?
i'm looking for linux compatibility with up to x400 or x200 usb microscope. Any suggestions from your personal experience? A serious report i've found is : http://hermann-uwe.de/blog/using-the-oasis-umo19-mcu003-400x-usb-microscope- on-linux-via-luvcview althougth the company oasis doesnt have it list its current products. And none mentions linux. aprekates ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

QtMoko v54 - Some issues on GTA02
I'm Matteo and I'm the owner of a GTA02. I updated Qtmoko on my phone yesterday using the Flash method. Everything was ok and there weren't any errors. When I booted up the phone there were two issues: - When a call is received there is no ringtone, even if the profile is set on General. I tried to install codecs from the website of Qtmoko but the problem persists. Also the Media Player is not ok. I tried to install mplayer and I was able to listen to a MP3 file. - When I ran the command apt-get upgrade the upgrade software stopped to run on setup of libjpegopen (it looks like frozen after 30 mins, but I was able to stop it). Can somebody help me? I use the GTA02 as daily phone and it is problematic not to hear an incoming call.

Re: GTA02 act as gps mouse?
Hi,
I'd also like to use my gta02 as bluetooth GPS with Android(Replicant)
devices.
There is an application for that in FDroid(a free software market/google
play replacement that contains only free software):
http://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdcategory=Navigationfdid=org.broeuschmeul.android.gps.bluetooth.provider
The application is called BlueGPS
I've tried to make an up to date python application for the freerunner
from scratch...
But my application is not reliable at all:
- it can only be closed by a kill (because of the while True: at the
end), I did the while true because rfcomm was not always reliable at
the beginning, maybe I should restest without it...
- bluez is somehow unreliable and it doesn't always find the adapter.
So to use it, install Fdroid, then BlueGPS within Fdroid.
then run my gps script.
Then do that on the freerunner:
wget
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/plain/test/simple-agent?id=910ffb4ca785da71b670bf105e234435c67fd7fe
-O simple-agent
chmod +x simple-agent
./simple-agent
That will permit you to pair it with android...
you'll have to enter a pin on android and in simple-agent...

Re: WIKI is in read-only mode?
Hi Radek and everybody, But one day your GTA02 will stop working - it might fall on the floor or whatever. GTA04 is only replacement - that's why it's important to support GTA04 - either by donation or buying the device. how it connected with the subject? This is not a reason to move the wiki or close it. This is an open source project, the marketing stereotypes (that the new generation hardware is the better replacement for old one) just not applicable. Just because that targeted to stimulate consumer market for sales, but not to give ability to people to create whatever they want. The potential of the hardware is not equal to the formal functionality of device. I plan to use the GTA02 as a core for robotic system, for example. Someone else maybe create something else with it (whatever it could be). It's logical to keep all data in one well know habitual knowledge base. And it's logical to keep it open for new supplements. Maybe i am wrong but openmoko as company is for years dead and nobody of the old admins is willing to spend much time on maintaining the infrastructure. I guess the number of spammers is now 1000x higher the number of contributors, that's why it's readonly. And it's no wonder that GTA04 has separate wiki because of these reasons. I'm as a user of wiki just don't care whether it contains some spam or not. I have a will to clean it if I found it, or doesn't if I'm lazy (or whatever). This is totally not a point. Honestly I don't understand the reason to close the access for users (who are main audience of the recourse) just to avoid the spam. It's ridiculous.

Re: WIKI is in read-only mode?
I wrote to admin (on the address mentioned here http://admin-trac.openmoko.org/trac), will see for feedback. Current admin actually shouldn't do anything. Just delegate rights to somebody else. I'm ready to participate in this process to, by the way.

The call tone is there, but the called phone is not ringing! After hang up, the called one is ringing! Very misteriousGTA04 is not ringing, too (or later). How to solve it? Maybe can you try deleting some SMS using your other phone, if that helps? Or there can be something interesting in log after enabling modem categories.

I wonder if there is some space left on the NAND. You can check it in system info or with df command. Can somebody help me?

This is an open source project, the marketing stereotypes (that the new generation hardware is the better replacement for old one) just not applicable. My point was that if there is no living replacement project, openmoko will die. The number of users/devs will convert to 0. Sooner or later your device will stop working and only replacement will be android/windows phone/iPhone. Just because that targeted to stimulate consumer market for sales, but not to give ability to people to create whatever they want. I dont like buying new phone every year. But Freerunner HW is badly flawed in a few ways (e.g. Glamo) and this justified buying GTA04 for me. I'm as a user of wiki just don't care whether it contains some spam or not. I do - there is a lot of useful information and i dont like that some spam machined deletes it.

It's ridiculous. I do see the point, but usually a wiki has an active maintainer who will permit new persons to have editing rights, on request. That is the current difficulty, that no-one has been issued new editing rights, It may be necessary to duplicate the old wiki on a new address. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
