Re: Kernel and Dual booting

2008-08-11 Thread DooD

To prevent opkg from upgrading the kernel try:

opkg flag hold kernel-2.6.24
opkg flag hold kernel-image-2.6.24

Altho i think you only need to block the kernel-image-2.6.24 After
getting a neo1973 kernel and a bad kernel that wouldnt boot from opkg, i do
all my kernel upgrades with the dfu-util.

 Dual booting is cool ;)
 
 Yes it is :)
 (Actually I'm running 2007 from flash and 2008.8 from SD, unlike you...)
 
 
 Yet I'm wondering if it isn't dangerous to do an opkg upgrade from
 the SD.
 
 Wouldn't that update the FR's kernel?
 If it does, then it could break booting from flash as the modules won't
 match anymore.
 
 Or is there a way to prevent opkg from flashing the kernel?  It would be
 nice to upgrade /uImage.bin instead!

Re: full-keyboard for Om 2008.08?

2008-08-10 Thread DooD

Hmm figured out why my above fix was only working on my asu build and not my
om2008.8 need to install 

http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t/illume_0.0+svnr196-r12_armv4t.ipk

this version seems to let me use whatever keyboard i like, which is how it
should be. hope it doesnt magically disappear . .

 I tried this, but I still get the standard keyboard.
 
 Somewhere along the line I installed the illume package with the 
 'qwerty' icon.  Maybe that has something to do with this?
 
 Also, I see this interesting comment in Default.kbd:
 
 # if the key out is in quotes - q for example, then this key is used for
 # typing words and can be part of a dictionary match, any other key when
 # pressed will end the dictionary match (u can disable dictionary
 # matching in
 # a layout by not having any outputs in quotes)
 
 So, that implies that if I can just get the system to recognize 
 alternate kbd files, I can turn off dictionary matching, which would 
 make me rather happy.
 
 
 Hmmm, waitaminnit, looking at the files in that directory, I don't think 
 they control the standard 2008.08 keyboard.  I'm talking about the one 
 where you flick up/down to shift to other layouts.
 
 Sigh.  I guess I'm still stuck with the irritating keyboard.  What's it 
 called?

The files you need to edit are under

/usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/illume/keyboards

I believe there is a Full-QWERTY.kbd in there, just backup the Default.kbd
and replace it with the Full-QWERTY.kbd

mv Default.kbd Defaultbackup.kbd
mv Full-QWERTY.kbd Default.kbd
/etc/init.d/xserver-nodm restart

Some of the keys, arrows, return, tab, shift, backspace are invisible...
not to hard to find them *hint* try holding your finger on the keyboard
until it zooms in.

Re: ASU - startup broken by upgrade?

2008-07-31 Thread DooD

I found that installing the newest e-wm and illume packages

http://downloads.openmoko.org/openmoko-repository/ASU/armv4t/e-wm_0.16.999.042+cvs200807270730-r11_armv4t.ipk
http://downloads.openmoko.org/openmoko-repository/ASU/armv4t/illume_0.0+svnr170-r7_armv4t.ipk

caused this problem. when i reinstalled 

http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t/e-wm_0.16.999.042+cvs20080722-r10_armv4t.ipk
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t/illume_0.0+svnr152-r6_armv4t.ipk

i was able to get xserver to run properly.
only problem was if i had already used opkg to upgrade i could not get it to
install the older packages

 Hello,
 
 It seems that today's 'opkg upgrade' broke the startup on my
 FreeRunner (I'm using ASU).
 /etc/init.d/rc complain that it can't find splash-write.
 
 Has anyone else seen this?
 
 Further investigation shows that it is a broken link now:

 Perhaps it got changed:
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# which exquisite-write
 /usr/bin/exquisite-write
 
 Ok, I'll fix the broken link so splash-write now points to
 exquisite-write. We'll see if that fixes everything.

Re: ASU, exposure doesn't work

2008-07-31 Thread DooD

Finally found how to get this one to work... the problem is with python-ecore
package the newest one doesnt even seem to run camp wifi for me anymore.
The version you want to install is from

http://buildhost.automated.it/OM2007.2/packages/armv4t/python-ecore_0.2.1+cvs20080702-r1_armv4t.ipk

If you cant get opkg to install it for you try -force-downgrade, which
doesnt seem to work for me. so i just temporarily removed my
armv4t-feed.conf from /etc/opkg, removed the package, then had opkg update
and typed

opkg install
http://buildhost.automated.it/OM2007.2/packages/armv4t/python-ecore_0.2.1+cvs20080702-r1_armv4t.ipk

This should work, goodluck

Re: Flash ASU

2008-07-29 Thread DooD

Most of these instructions i have pulled off the wiki or from other e-mails,
Do not hold me responsible if you brick your Freerunner while following
them.

Here is what has worked for me so far
First you want to get the newest ASU rootfs from

http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily/freerunner/

The newest ASU rootfs for now is

http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily/freerunner/200807/20080722/Openmoko-openmoko-qtopia-x11-image-glibc-ipk-P1-Snapshot-20080722-om-gta02.rootfs.jffs2

After you have downloaded that you will want to go to

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Flashing_the_Neo_FreeRunner

Following the instructions on the page download the dfu-util to the same
directory as the rootfs.jffs2

http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Freerunner/dfu-util

Now you will need to power down your Freerunner and power it into the NOR
uBoot menu for flashing.
(in short: press and hold aux then power)
When the menu has come up attach the Freerunner to your host linux system
via USB.
*note* uBoot menu will not stay on for long, unless you scroll using the aux
button

Now open a terminal on the host linux system, go to the directory of your
dfu-util and rootfs.jffs2,and run the command:
*note* changing the name of the rootfs.jffs2 to whatever you downloaded

./dfu-util -a rootfs -R -D
Openmoko-openmoko-qtopia-x11-image-glibc-ipk-P1-Snapshot-20080722-om-gta02.rootfs.jffs2

Let dfu-util run its magic, then you should be able to boot into the ASU.

-

Now if you installed the 200807022 ASU you will notice some problems, mainly
that there is no keyboard!
What you will need to do now is to opkg update and upgrade.

Assuming your host linux system has internet you will want to follow the
instructions in

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking

On the host linux system commands

ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.200
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]

should allow you to connect to the phone.

--

If you do not know how to use the vi editor on the Freerunner you may not be
able to do this next part
Also read the notes before updating your .conf files

Once you have your phone connected to the internet you will want to change
your opkg feeds. Manually you can just goto /etc/opkg and use vi *.conf, or
you can download updated .confs from

http://www.mikeasoft.com/~mike/opkg-asu.tar.gz

On the phone just cd /etc and type wget
http://www.mikeasoft.com/~mike/opkg-asu.tar.gz; followed by tar xzf
opkg-asu* This will extract the *.conf files to /etc/opkg. 

*IMPORTANT NOTE1* If you change the neo1973-feed.conf to
http://downloads.openmoko.org/openmoko-repository/ASU/neo1973, opkg will
download a kernel for the neo1973 onto your freerunner, while it wont stop
the phone from working it may stop the phone from having sound.
*IMPORTANT NOTE2* The newest e-wm and illume packages do not seem to work,
opkg upgrade may stop you from being able to boot into the ASU, tho you can
still connect to it with ssh. For now i would recommend pointing
/etc/opkg/armv4t.conf to http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t and
rerun opkg update before running opkg upgrade.
*IMPORTANT NOTE3* opkg install
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/om-gta02//kernel-image-2.6.24_2.6.24+git25+8533927964761f4e2078ccd8607b90f5acc60b93-r0_om-gta02.ipk
does not seem to flash the kernel correctly and will cause the system to
hang right as you power up your phone. you will need to reflash your kernel
in order to be able to boot again.

---

To get a keyboard working, and hopefully not kill your phone, try installing
the above *.conf files, but before running opkg update or upgrade :

rm /etc/opkg/om-gta02-d*
echo src/gz daily-neo1973 http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/neo1973;
 /etc/opkg/neo*
echo src/gz daily-armv4t http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t; 
/etc/opkg/arm*
opkg install
http://downloads.openmoko.org/openmoko-repository/ASU/armv4t/app-restarter_1.0+svn4552-r0_armv4t.ipk

Now run opkg update, followed by opkg upgrade. Reboot your Freerunner and so
long as you boot into the ASU you should be able to use the keyboard in
Qtopia apps
 
--

If you are going to be installing GTK apps, such as opkg install
openmoko-terminal2 you will want to be able to use the keyboard, either you
can have the keyboard automatically popup by installing
matchbox-keyboard-im*.ipk, or you can install a theme with the qwerty
button.

To have the keyboard automagically popup

cd /tmp
mkdir matchbox-keyboard
cd matchbox-keyboard
wget http://www.ginguppin.de/files/keyboard-ipk.tar.bz2
tar -jxf keyboard-ipk.tar.bz2
opkg install matchbox-keyboard-im*.ipk
cd ..
rm -rf matchbox-keyboard

*note* it will extract 3 files, you only need to install
matchbox-keyboard-im*.ipk The other packages may completely replace the
keyboard...
