This is due to a bug in illume and the workaround is by first pressing continue and then back again. A similar bug exists when entering new contacts. 2) Mokoconnect doesn't connect to wifi at all anymore. Currently using nwa though, which does work.

From the documentation I gather that this could be done by doing: mount /dev/your-partition /mnt/debian ./install.sh debian apt fso configuration tasks kernel cleanup unmount but I didn't test this (don't want it to start installing it on the wrong partition/distroying my other installations). -Timo Cheers, Edwin ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

There are many use cases if you're on battery for an extended period (for example when traveling) and don't need the GSM to be online all the time. There have been a few occasions where suspend to disk would have helped me, assuming reasonable wakeup time. But I understand I'm in the minority. I would also like suspend to disk and agree that there are a number of use cases when it is very practical. For example I am often out of the country for a weekend. Often it is not practical to recharge the phone during that time and it would be a lot easier if I could just suspend to disk and quickly check for missed msgs every couple of hours or so. Maybe I am biased because I also always suspend my laptop to disk, so know from experience how nice it is to be able to quickly boot up :) Cheers, Edder ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: PISI 0.4 released
Hi Michael, On Thu, Aug 13, 2009 at 9:39 AM, Michael Pilgermannkichka...@gmx.de wrote: Hi Edder, 1) Are there any plans to support google tasks? It is a widget within gmail and would be nice if that one could be synced to for example tasks or e-tasks. I have not yet planned to integrate tasks support in PISI - however, the modular approach would easily allow for that. For myself, this is not really a high priority thing - but, if more people are requesting that feature, I would be fine with supporting it (for the beginning, I filed a feature request on the projects page). I had a quick look into this (thinking I might implement it myself) and it seems that at the moment there is no google api for the tasks available yet, so I guess this feature would have to wait anyway But then I had in mind this opimd thing as well - which will overcome all these problems. It is again a think of proirities - pretty much depends on the timeline of opimd - as I count the time we have to wait for opimd dialer in days and weeks (rather than in months) I am not too motivated to spend too much time on that issue. Let's hope that you are right and that this support will happen in the coming weeks, but it seems to my impatient eye that support has been around the corner for some time already :) What do you think about this: Fow short term solution, I could add a flag in the configuration file, where the user can configure whether to restart the backend process automatically after sync. That wouldn't be too much efforts - and it would do the job (not nice, but it would do the job) ... Sounds like an acceptable work around to me. * There is a couple of bugs I really have to address soon. Always important! :) * The next feature I am aiming for is SyncML supporrt - this is the 'standard' used in propriety mobiles - and (with some plugins) allows for synchronization with desktop applicatins (e.g. http://www.topologilinux.com/syncml/index.php?menu=1 or funambol) This would be a great feature to have!

Re: PISI 0.4 released
Hi, I installed the latest version (0.4.4) and have a couple of questions: 1) Are there any plans to support google tasks? It is a widget within gmail and would be nice if that one could be synced to for example tasks or e-tasks. 2) Long contact names. I have quite a few contacts with long names and at the moment syncing (with google contacts) causes problems, because it doesn't recognise that my phone contact Bla der BladiBla* == googlecontact Bla der BladiBladder. Ofcourse this shouldn't be a problem anymore when opimd is the default, so I'd understand if this is low priority. 3) Are you planning to solve the problem with e-calendar-factory needing a restart? The existence of this background process suggests (to me) that proper updates to the calendar should go through that process. Do you know if that is true? And would that solve the restart issue?
