Re: [QtMoko] New debian images
By the way, is there a way to disable to autocomplete on this, and just have the keyboard respond immediately as I type, just like in the mainline QtMoko? Rene 2009/6/10 Radek Polak pson...@seznam.cz Hi Guys, i have created new QtMoko images on debian rootfs. You can find them together with some info on my site [1]. These images should give you: - full debian system (over ssh) - working calls/sms - working gprs - usable media player - and lot of more features In this new image QT was upgraded to version 4.5.1 and with attached patch i have fixed the missing virtual keyboard in password fields. You can find sources in my git branch qt451. Another thing is qmplayer - media player that can play ogg/mp3/avi files but is also able to download or stream media from PC. You can find more info on qmplayer homepage [2]. Kernel is now based on packaging config. The kernel size is now under 2MB so it can be booted with u-boot. We have also new logo [3] (thanks to my wife). My plan for future is to merge other's GIT's - i am running build right now, so we'll see if that worked :) On the experimenting front - i was able to run TangoGPS and other X apps via vnc. It was quite slow and mouse dragging wanst working, but still quite usable. Btw is anyone planning to release ready-to-flash QtMoko images for FSO? I see there is just install script, but i would like to have image that can be just flashed and booted.

Re: How to get started with Openmoko phone?
On Sat, Jun 6, 2009 at 10:39 PM, Damian Spriggs damianspri...@mac.comwrote: 1) Is there any particular kind of wireless carrier (in US) I need to subscribe to? Any that use a SIM card. So ATT or T-Mobile. (I use ATT just fine) Slightly off. It also needs to be a GSM network. Right now, that's only ATT T-Mobile for the US. 2) Do I need to tell the carrier that I shall be using a linux-based phone? Nope. It's a good idea not to tell them. There is nothing that they need to do other than give you service. Neither ATT nor T-Mobile care. You can ask them for just the SIM card. I did. 3) Can I use Nextel or ATT and T-mobile are my only national carrier options? Not 100% sure, but I don't think Nextel phones use SIMs. I may be wrong though. Yes they do, but they don't do GSM. 4) How do I get a SIM card for the phone? When you sign up for service, they will give you one, usually in a free phone. All you need to do is pull the SIM out of the phone and install it in the Freerunner No, just ask for a SIM card. It's actually cheaper. 5) Can I text (SMS) -- I intend on using Qtopia at the beginning? Yep, Texting works on all major distros 6) Can I sync addresses etc with my desktop? I haven't done it personally, but I've seen maillist threads describing the process. I have been using Sprint (CDMA) -- so I am quite unfamiliar with the GSM world (and a phone that does not come with the service) -- I would appreciate any (obvious) tips on how to get from buying the FreeRunner to making and receiving calls and text messages. Your best bet would be a good, thorough read through of the wiki[1]. There is a plethora of introductory information. If you still have questions, try the friendly maillists or IRC channels. Hope this helps. [1] http://wiki.openmoko.org --- Damian A.

Re: [QtExtended] Latest and greatest, progress mail 12
I just tried out this version. I'm still having issues with GPRS. I'd like to be able to fix the issue myself if I could, or at least point out a possible fix. I know it can work because it does under SHR-Unstable. Where should I be looking for this? Where is all the GPRS code located? Where are the scripts?
