Re: [debian] Sephora 0.1 - Suggestions needed
vale [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: it would be nice, to have more control over gps. to see the status, satellites, do a warm / cold restart, time to first fix, like in the gps-ui for openmoko distribution. thats missing in debian and fso :( Using fso-gpsd seems to do warm start. It work quit OK, but there is 2 big problems that make me change to a classical gpsd allown: - fso-gpsd toggle GPS on/off automaticly, which seems to be a good idea, but is not when tangogps segfault: You have to wait for another fix before using it. - using fso-gpsd, I have sometimes no gps information during some seconds or minutes, which is problematic when you are mapping for openstreetmap. -- Guillaume Pinot http://www.irccyn.ec-nantes.fr/~pinot/ ``Computers are good at following instructions, but not at reading your mind.'' -- Donald E.

Re: new version of the openmoko-panel-plugin 0.3
Christian Adams [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: the next version is already on it's way to sebastian to package a little gui-update here and there, some notifications (if python- pynotify and notification-mananger(-xfce) installed) and a thumb- friendly way to change lcd-brightness what i will add next would be a configfile where you can toggle which hw-icons you like to get displayed and which not other suggestions what you (the users) want could be placed on this list .. :) I have sent by accident a mail to Sebastian Ohl instead of here about a review of this plugin. I'll try to say all I have sayed. This plugin is great, I use it with xfce4-panel and matchbox (not XFCE) in user mode. bugs: - the battery part seems to depend of a battery.py, which is not in the debian package, so I don't now where it came from. - The debian package do not have enough dependencies, at least python-gtk is needed. - the usb applet suppose that pushing the button always succeed, which is not the case. For example, in user mode, the plugin is not allowed to charge module or change the usb mode. - the panel plugin became unusable after a fso-frameworkd restart. usability problems: - some part of the plugin is not usable in user mode, for example the new usb applet. - the plugin is composed of too much icons. - toggling mode of wifi, gsm and gps is too easy and can be done by accident. Proposed features: - cobine the status icons into an unique icon (wifi, gps, bt, gsm on/off, maybe usb). When pushing this icon, a window appear that propose to change the different options (module on/off, usb mode, usb gadget). - use a real bar for batterie status instead of lots of icons. - use a bar for gsm instead of a 4 circle bar. - print GSM network in the GSM icon instead of the red bars (maybe not a good idea since the name can be long). - provide a matchbox-keyboard-toggle compatible with the applet, or give an option to use the AUX button to toggle the keyboard directly into the panel plugin. -- Guillaume Pinot http://www.irccyn.ec-nantes.fr/~pinot/ ``Computers are good at following instructions, but not at reading your mind.'' -- Donald E.

Re: Wlan Issues after inactivity
Sarton O'Brien [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Apparently some people need to do iwconfig eth0 power off to even get an association. This command toggle off power management. From my experience, this is not a FR bug, but an AP bug : some AP do not work good with power managed client. On my lab, at the university and in my LUG, the wifi work without swiching off the power management. But at home, I need to toggling off power management. With power management, it is difficult to have an IP by DHCP, and pinging the router make between 70-80% of lost packets. My Nintendo DS do not work with this router too. I experiment wifi problem when loosing link, that can only be fixed by a reboot. It is not great when roaming...

Re: milestone3 available in Debian
Joachim Breitner [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Besides these new versions you might be interested to hear that remoko and pypennotes have been packaged for Debian, and fso-gpsd makes sure all gpsd-using applications (such as tangogps) work also. We still don’t have Illume, as we are still waiting for new Enlightenment libs being released and packaged for Debian. I have updated this morning, and I have some problems: - SMS do not work (the icon is grey), zhone says 2008-09-12 15:43:44,943 INFO checking for unsent messages 2008-09-12 15:43:45,404 INFO did not receive any unsent messages: org.freesmartphone.GSM.SIM.NotFound: It worked OK on fso-m2 (sometimes, I received a number instead of the text of the SMS). - Sometimes, zhone do not want to suspend after 2 sec power buttun because it do not received the event. On fso-m2, I restart frameworkd and zhone, and It works after. Now, when I do that, I lost the contact list. - I cannot downgrade to fso-m2 because it is not in the archive now. I need SMS to use the FR as a phone. else, it works well, and fso-gpsd work fine. -- Guillaume Pinot http://www.irccyn.ec-nantes.fr/~pinot/ ``Computers are good at following instructions, but not at reading your mind.'' -- Donald E.
