Re: GTA04-N900 vel. Neo900
Hi all! I actually think this is a great idea! I always liked the N900 formfactor. But is it technically possible? I remember somebody mention that the option modem is quite big? And if there will be a redesign the fit the gta04 to the n900 will it possible to update the specs a bit? faster cpu and stuff like that? But to be honest, i will probably not buy this device if it has the same problems the current gta04 has. (power usage and modem enumeration) and also i don't want to pay 600+ for a smartphone. But i hope if this idea takes of and there is enough interest the price will be much lower. greetings, tomas ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Hi, this guide (http://www.fragcom.de/server/fragcom_words) explains how to add a german dictionary to qtmoko. You need to adjust paths to the paths used by qtmoko, but under qtmoko ~v26 I got it to work an noticed predictive effects :-). I haven't tried for recent versions of qtmoko. Steps 67 for non-germans: replace en_US by de_DE in the mentioned file twice, and reboot freerunner. It also mentions the .dawg file is from a debian package called wngerman, maybe something similar exists for your languages. Peter Ok I tried it with a french dictionary and also the original words.dawg for en_US, and it doesn't seem to work for me :( Same behavior as previously... It works with : http://kewlcat.no-ip.org/openmoko/words.dawg instead of the dict I used. It seems dictionary in debian *spell packages are not in dawg format, and you can generate a dawg file from a list of words using qdawggen (but you need to build Qt to get it)... or go there and be happy :) http://alasal.be/openmoko/keyboard/ Xavier. Very nice, typing works much better now. This was the only thing that was missing in qtmoko for me. I only have one problem: I'm unable to use the special characters like é or à and also symbols (.,?) do not work :-( Somebody ideas to solve this? I'v also added the information to the faq on the wiki Kind regards Tomas ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: NeronGPS - fixes, map cache

Is sthi project (somewere? in Radek's repositery?) alive? you can find the latest code at: https://github.com/tvuillaume/NeronGPS.

In Radeks repository you do not find the latest code, i believe because in the latest version it is not possible to syncronise the clock with the GPS NeronGPS sometimes segfault or just exits, where I should send patches (if I do anny :)? I thinks you best send it to radek In latest QtMoko v33 I does not found how to download map to cache (I used original app from http://tvuillaume.free.fr/NeronGPS/ to do this) I'm miss something? didn't try v33 yet.

Re: [QtMoko] Using dutch as input language for predictive keyboard
Hello, Could you please post (or put on the Wiki?) where you found the word list, and how you taught SHR to use it? I'd like to use the predicitve keyboard (in Dutch), as well... actually, it is over a year or so when i last used shr, so i cant remember all the steps i did to use this dutch list with the predictive keyboard. I do remember that it was worth the trouble to find out, it really really works much better with this list. what i do remember: * I downloaded a frequency list from http://www.inl.nl/ ( i think i used this link: http://www.inl.nl/nl/component/content/416?task=view ) you have to register yourself before you can download * I searched in my shr installation for the English word list used by the predictive keyboard (sorry i really cannot remeber the location) * i took a look at this file to see how it was structured * i took a editor to give my file the same structure as the english file * i saved my file at the correct location on my shr-installation (i'm not sure, but it may be necessary to edit a configuration file) * i was amazed with the result i'm sure somebody else on this list can give you a hint where to store this file kind regards, Tomas ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[QtMoko] Using dutch as input language for predictive keyboard
Hi, I recently configured qtmoko to use the predictive keyboard (smartkeyboard) as standard keyboard. I also enabled prediction. It works very nice and fast for typing. If you use English that is. So I wonder if anyone knows how to change the imput language to dutch? I have a Dutch word list i used once on SHR. I took a quick look at the source to get some clue where to put this file. That way i found out the input language can be changed at the language app found in the settings menu. But i don't know how to add a new language to this list. kind regards, toams ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [QtMoko] adding agps support
When it's said FSO has agps enabled by default they mean FSO stores ephemeris and almanac from the chip every time prior to powering it off and loads the saved data after powering on. The code is there in ogpsd. Thanks for the info, i will have a look at the source. If the ephemiri data is fresh enough (2-4 hours max), the effect is the same as downloading the data from the internet. Other than that, there's no agps integration yet afaik. Don't know why, but i thought this data was useful for a couple of days, not couple of hours thx, toams ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [qtmoko] using qtmoko as an USB Mass storage device
Op maandag 17 mei 2010 06:28:26 schreef Radek Polak: If somebody brings up good reason why USB mass storage is needed i will make it possible as default in QtMoko. I recently bought a car radio player with a usb port and my idea was to attach my neo to it, and use the micro sd as storage for my music. the extra side effect would be that my freerunner would get charged and it can be used as a gps-device at the same time. I tried to use the car radio just as a charger, but it seems it doesn't charge correctly. Probably it cannot supply 500mA. I will investigate further when i find some time to waste. i hope this is a good reason for you :-) (but it will probably never work anyway so please dont waste time on this :-) regards, Toams ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[QtMoko] adding agps support
Hello, SHR, and probably others too, have agps enabled by default. So i think it should be fairly easy to add this. I did a little research and it seems like all we have to do is to save the latest GPS data to a file when the GPS is shut down and feed this data back to the GPS when starting GPS next time. after a little more research i found: /opt/qtmoko/bin/gps-poweron.sh and /opt/qtmoko/bin/gps-poweroff.sh maybe we can adjust these files? or add agps support at ~/qtmoko/devices/neo/src/plugins/whereabouts/neo/neogpsplugin.cpp unfortunately my hacking skills are not good enough for doing this myself. I hope somebody can implement this, or at least provide me some more information so i can try to implement this myself.

[qtmoko] using qtmoko as an USB Mass storage device
Hello all, I want to use my freerunner as a USB Mass storage device. I tried to follow the instructions on http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Using_the_Neo_as_an_USB_Mass_storage_device. But it seems there are no g_ether and g_file_storage modules present on QtMoko v22. Maybe they are built inside the kernel? I also found in the Devtools menu two scripts: 'USB device mode' and 'USB host mode', but i dont know what their exact use is. Anyway if somebody can point me to the right direction, please do! thanks, Toams ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: News Openmoko Shop Pulster
Besides you can add a free laserpen to any order: http://www.pulster.de/engl/images/big/laserpen-1.jpg I have had two of these pens and for both the laser pointer and the LED were most of the time dimmed. This was probably because of bad conduction with the batteries. If I unscrew the pen they would sometimes light up at full power, when pressing the buttons. The idea is very good but the quality guarantee is, in my opinion, not so high. Feel free to do with this feedback as you please. Perhaps a poll would give a more objective insight in the quality of these devices. The pen i recieved from pulster works very nicely. Actually, its the only thing i recieved when i ordered a freerunner + accesoires that Just Works. :-) ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [fso] sending pin failed
