Liebe Fabulous-Freunde,

einige von Euch waren im Sommer beim Fabrica-Pavillon, haben
vielleicht sogar selbst ein DIY Phone gebaut. Für diejenigen, die
nicht vorbeikommen konnten, gibt es nun noch einmal eine Gelegenheit,
das Ganze anzuschauen:

Jetzt am Samstag, den 29.11., zeigen wir im Art Store St. Pauli
fertige Handys und interessante Gehäuse. Das Projekt war ein
Riesenerfolg. Es gab viermal mehr Anmeldungen als Workshop-Plätze,
viele Medien haben berichtet, und vor allem: Die Leute, die mitgebaut
oder an den Vortragsabenden mitdiskutiert haben, waren geflasht, was
mitten in der Stadt möglich ist. Darauf wollen wir am Samstag auch
mit Euch anstoßen.

Wenn Ihr am Samstag Zeit habt oder ohnehin auf St. Pauli unterwegs
seid, schaut vorbei!

Art Store St. Pauli, Wohlwillstraße 10, ab 20:00 Uhr.

Eure Fabulous-Crew

PS: Einen schönen 5:38min-Beitrag hat Tide TV gemacht:

PPS: Ab dem 4.12. gibt es bei designxport Hamburg
(Hongkongstraße/Hafencity) eine zweiwöchige Ausstellung zum Projekt.
Dazu in Kürze mehr.

 Antwort an: OpenPhoenux Community commun...@openphoenux.org
 
 Hi all,
 we are happy to invite to the 5th Open(Phoenux) HardSoftware Workshop in 
 Munich, Germany.
 
 The idea is a 2 days weekend meeting (quite informal) to discuss about many 
 topics around open hardsoftware
 like Openmoko, GTA04 and other topics. It is a mix of presentations, 
 tutorials, workshops and we also did have
 some soldering session.
 
 Since this quite well matches with the ideas and targets of the Openphoenux 
 community, we have renamed
 it slightly this year to be an OpenPhoenux Workshop.
 
 For details please look at and pre-register (i.e. vote for a weekend and make 
 proposals for topics):
 
 http://www.ohsw.org/
 
 There you can also find the topics, slides and some videos from previous 
 years.
 
 For this year's workhop, please suggest topics you are interested in (e.g. 
 Neo900, future Kernel development, ...).
 
 Please note that this page is in German as it is (was) a Germany centric 
 workshop in the past, but
 we are open to make it more international - if we have attendees from 
 non-german speaking countries.
 
 BR,
 Nikolaus

Fwd: [FOSDEM-Devrooms] Devroom request: World of OpenPhoenux

2012-10-22 Thread Dr. H. Nikolaus Schaller
FYI.

To me it appears that they have less rooms to dispose than in the previous 
years. I know one other project that did have a devroom in the past 10 years 
didn't get one like us. With almost the same wording. And there were 
discussions about not using the AW building any more.

So what are your ideas about going to FOSDEM? Plans for presentations to submit 
to other devrooms? Some informal meeting? Should we have a Stand?

 Betreff: Re: [FOSDEM-Devrooms] Devroom request: World of OpenPhoenux
 
 Hi,
 
 I'm sorry to inform you that we declined your devroom proposal.
 
 To clarify, your request was perfectly valid, but we had to choose. 
 Unfortunately we do not have a sufficient number of rooms at our disposal to 
 cover all requests.
 
 Nevertheless, there are other ways to participate in FOSDEM too. A call for 
 participation will be announced around next week, with opportunities to:
 - have a stand at FOSDEM,
 - hold a 15 minute 'lightningtalk' in one of the biggest rooms,
 - speak in one of the other devrooms.
 
 In particular, you might be interested in the 'embedded and mobile' devroom.
 
 
 On behalf of the FOSDEM devroom team,
 Tias

 * Devroom name: World of OpenPhoenux
 
 * Description
 
 OpenPhoenux is a new roof project to cover all previous and future 
 developments
 initiated by Openmoko to develop really free and open mobile systems 
 spanning from
 GUI and applications over middleware down to hardware. Therefore it intends 
 to give a
 home and space for exchange between developers of the following projects:
 
 * Openmoko
 * SHR - Software stack
 * QtMoko - Software stack
 * FSF PowerVR reverse engineering initiative
 * FSF Replicant - completely free Android compatible software stack
 * FSO - middleware
 * GTA04 - FLOSS friendly mobile hardware platform
 * OpenPandora - FLOSS friendly handheld game console
 ... more will be invited to contribute

 - http://www.gta04.org
 - http://www.openpandora.org
 
 * Preferred day: Sunday morning (3-4h appears to be sufficient); small room 
 appears to suffice
 
 * Why should FOSDEM accept this proposal?
 because this set of projects needs a common room to meet, discuss and 
 exchange
 ideas. IMHO these topics should not be fragmented amongst several sessions 
 like
 mobile, embedded, graphics, distro,  but should be focussed on the 
 common goal.
 FOSDEM appears the only world-wide event where developers and enthusiasts of
 all of these projects have a chance to meet in a single place to work on a 
 common
 picture.

 FYI.
 
 To me it appears that they have less rooms to dispose than in the previous
 years. I know one other project that did have a devroom in the past 10
 years didn't get one like us. With almost the same wording. And there were
 discussions about not using the AW building any more.
Maybe everything from AW moves to the newer building? It would be more 
practical in general, and warmer, but AW got many smaller rooms. :-(

 So what are your ideas about going to FOSDEM? Plans for presentations to
 submit to other devrooms? Some informal meeting? Should we have a Stand?
Could we transform a stand to a devstand? The tables are a bit unstable and 
usually close to the wall, due to space constraints in AW. I think I can take 
a projector with me. I don't have a sreen though. If we have a large enought 
table, and enough chairs, we might do something more organized than trying to 
hear what peoplo on the other side of the table are saying. 

Besides a projector I can take an (older) LCD's with me (1280x1024 I hope, 
17). Can the TV-out on GTA04 be hacked into supplying some signal that's 
suitable for VGA? There are passive adapters available, and active adapters in 
the wrong direction (I did see adapters to connect the VGA-out to s-
video/YUV input, but not the other way around). 

Is there some hackable project we could run with the left-over Freerunner 
mainboards? I still want to turn mine into a webserver (later, when I'm grown 
up), but with a couple of them we could maybe do some hide-and-seek with mesh 
networking (either WIFI or BT, to let Neo1979 play as well) and trying to 
detect them with our GTA04s. 

It all needs preparation of course, but if we first flood the list with ideas, 
we can pick some feasible plans out of them. The least we can do, is have last 
year's presentation running in a loop on one screen and (all?) our videos on 
another. Especially: on a big screen, since our devices are so miniature...

One more: if we (sorry, I'd feel much better saying I, but ..:-( ) get the 
FM radio running before then, we can broadcast sound for the presentation to 
mobile speakers. 

On a side note (and no plug intended): I'm involved in Limesco, the dutch 
telco start-up that is open organisation/hacker friendly. I'm not sure 
whether Limesco will be at FOSDEM, but I imagine it to be somewhat connected 
to our project. To my knowledge, there is no equivalent to it in another 
country. The options are still limited, due to small scale (sounds familiar). 
One special feature that is available now, is to route voice calls through 
your own server, instead of that of the telco. Does something like that offer 
possibilities for something interesting during FOSDEM? 

Are there some easily made GTA04 hardware extensions we could offer people to 
solder in 20-40 minutes under guidance? 

There must be some visitors from previous years on the list as well. How was 
our stand perceived last year? 

Best regards,

Boudewijn

 Can you answer at thees questions ? :
Harry's answers are quite good. 

What is your goal? 

It seems you ask about Openmoko Neo Freerunner (GTA02), or at least, the 
answers seem to focus on that model. I enjoyed using it a lot. You probably 
found the wiki: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo_FreeRunner (and see 
distributions as well; though I'd suggest SHR or QtMoko).

Now I enjoy using my OpenPhoenux even better. There's a short page on the 
openmoko wiki as well (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GTA04), giving a history 
of the project. More extended information is available at gta04.org: about the 
hardware, the software and us, the community around it.

 what's last news about freerunner ?
The latest news in my opinion is what's said in another mail: the Freerunner 
is superseded by OpenPhoenux. There the story continues. I'll answer your 
questions from a GTA04/OpenPhoenux-perspective.

 Is it alway available at the switzerland distributor ?
OpenPhoenux hardware is developed, build and tested not far away from 
Switzerland, in and around München. Development is sponsored by Golden 
Delicious and distributed by handheld-linux.com, GD's webshop.
There are some more Swiss GTA04 users, if I recall correctly. Maybe someone 
will chime in and tell where they ordered.

 What's Qmoko  a software or the phone fondation that support this phone ?
 If Qmoko is a distribution wat's the current foundation that support and
 that make the freerunner ?
I'm not quite sure what you mean with the question. QtMoko is (indeed) a 
distribution for phones/mobile devices, especially Openmoko devices. It is 
based on Debian (armel), so all software you're used to using, is available.
 
  is there a possibility to add the 3g  and make some phone with this ?
That's how development of GTA04 started: adding 3g to something like 
GTA02/Freerunner, but with stronger hardware (starting with Beagleboard).

  Is there a software to reed and edit the opendocument ?
Yes. I have used Abiword on Freerunner. The screen of 640x480 is barely usable 
for this. I would export it over SSH. On OpenPhoenux there are more 
workarounds for the screen resolution: there's TV out and if you really 
wanted, it's possible to get a kit with a larger screen. Besides: working is 
much more comfortable with the stronger processor and larger memory.

  Wat's the antenna quality ? it's good ?
Colleagues with mainstream smartphones are surprised to see me calling in 
the elevator at my work. It does not always keep the connection, but their 
phones (A[ndroid|pple]) would fail for sure. This is with OpenPhoenux, using 
the Freerunner antenna.

  There are a software to reed the aac (m4a) and mp3
As much as there is on your desktop, there is on Openmoko devices. At the very 
least mplayer.

  Whath's the warranty conditions ?
It's produced and sold in the EU: 2 years (http://www.handheld-
linux.com/wiki.php?page=Service)

  There is no camera isn't it ?
Indeed. The hardware is prepared for a camera, but the actual camera module is 
optional.

  What's your answer ?
The final answer? Have a look at GTA04.org and join the fun!

 I would very much like to at least do a writeup and video about the

 Obviously it would be wonderful if I could test an OpenPhoenux, but is 
 there anybody who might be interested in telling me a bit more about its 
 history of the project, and the hopes for the future of open source 
 portable devices/smartphones? As the original email stated, I'm based in

Subject: [OHANDA] a Year of Open Source Everything

 Hi, 
 I'm a filmmaker based in Berlin, about to start a year of trying to
live as free / libre / open source as possible - not just software but
also hardware, clothes, music... everything. it will be the subject of
a weekly video series throughout the year, with plenty of articles and
interviews along the way. The fastest way to get to grips with the
idea is probably to watch the pitch video [1].

 I want to use the project as a way to portray the idea and benefits
of freedom, transparency and modification in the products we use, and
tell my story of discovery as a way of tying all of these various
different aspects together, whether legal, technical, or cultural. I
think the OHANDA approach is an admirable one and something more
people need to hear about, and I'd love to meet up with someone (or a
few people) from the organisation to talk about its aims and processes
- I'd like to film something if possible but there are other options
we can discuss for the camera-shy...

 I think OHANDA tackles a key issue in this movement and I'd like to
show what you're doing relatively early on in the project (which
starts in 6 days!) but I can start by giving a summary of who you are
and what you're doing, link to your site, and then a little later in
the project we can do a more in-depth feature. 

 Please let me know if anyone from OHANDA would be interested in
helping out with the project in any way, if you can offer any support
or advice, and if you have any links to other projects / organisations
that may be relevant to my project, they would be very welcome!

AFAIK osmocom-bb works on the OpenMoko phones, but most likely not in
the way you expect. There is so far no AT-command interface, which means
you cannot use OpenMoko dialing-apps, etc. You have to use the normal
osmocom-bb telnet interface to interact with it.

I think there's already been a thread recently about this; please check

I know about OsmocomBB from beginning, but Openmoko smartphones support
wasn't priority for them. I'm glad to see some progress on GTA02.


It's neither SHR or QtMoko, but I have begun to write some code to
integrate OsmocomBB with my own telephony implementation (called
DeforaOS Phone) for the Openmoko Freerunner. It is very, very early
work and therefore far from being functional yet, but for the record,
you can find it here:
http://www.defora.org/os/project/browse/3343?file=/src/modems/osmocom.c,vrevision=1.2

Previous versions of the DeforaOS environment are already packaged for
the hackable:1 distribution, and released within the dse series. For

Not sure the reason of this warning, but I noticed a white space

just the missing insserv header to help it decide when to start this

Well, we don't have a real mass market device and I think
 we should not even pretend to have one, in this phase.
 Because we are then compared to the 100 EUR Huawei
 Android/UMTS units where one has to suspect that the
 workers in China are being ripped off...

 I recently bought a used Motorola XT720 on Ebay for $80 CAD. That's a
price I can afford. I'm not saying you should drop prices or use bad
factories, but I personally need far more time to save up 499 Euros.


 What do you think should we do to make this group
 tour a success?

 * extend the subscription timeframe until we reach
  100%?


Please! The people who want it earlier will be disappointed, but seeing as
how the development model is so different, I'm sure they'll understand
(though ask them, which what you're doing I suppose).


 * ask for/collect donations to extend the early bird rebates?
   Some sort of sponsorship by community members for
   community members who can't afford a new GTA04
   immediately?


I love this idea, but with only 56 units ordered, I'm not going to hold my
breath.


 * have more resellers or buying groups to order batches
   of 10 units?

* talk more about the benefits and special features one
   can only find in a GTA04 and nowhere else?


Always good, but takes work. Someone in reply to a recent Phoronix article
suggested marketing them as devices that can be fully encrypted for the
politician or activist who needs it most. I hate to say it but people have
a real hard-on for Android. Making sure the AoF people have a board to hack
on could go a long way and you could reasonably call it an investment.

* subsidize GTA04 boards by combining them with a
   UMTS contract?


Possibly but very limited to certain areas, right? Maybe pick the top four
geekiest locations to this... What kind of person knows about this sort of
thing?


 * offer to pay only part of the price by end of the subscription
   time frame so that we can already buy the expensive
   and difficult to source components, but postpone
   production individually until the remaining payments
   arrive? (i.e. pay 200 EUR until 10th Feb and the remainder
   until May)


Big yes! I firmly set my vote for this option above all others. I can
afford one eventually, but even May might be too soon for me.


 More ideas are welcome! But please keep in mind
 that we can't develop something completely new until
 February and components cost what they cost...

 The simpler the idea the better!


You spoke about marketing in another post. This is crucial. Geeks should be
jumping for a phone that ships Debian + LXDE. I haven't seen one post on
Debian User, or the LXDE lists! These guys are the one's who'll be happy to
pay a premium. Let's blast all Foss lists that are even mildly relevant,
LUGS all have mailing lists, hackspace lists, where-ever makers hang out,
and this is just off the top of my head. Let's also ask GTA02 owners
(18,000 of them right?), who have one collecting dust to put them up on
Ebay or buy a GTA04. Kickstarter or a similar service like others
mentioned, is also a good idea. Even if it's just for specific areas, any
funding I'm sure will be put to good use.

I wish I had known earlier no one was doing marketing. Not that I really
have much time myself, but since no one else is stepping up to the plate
I'll see what I can conjure up. I'll start a marketing thread in the next
few days, please though if someone else wants to take the initiative you
have my blessing and thanks!


 And, there may be ideas which are too big for a single
 community member, but may become feasible if we all
 work together, contributing many small pieces.

 Curious about your ideas,
 Nikolaus

For the record, I have three hurdles:

A) The price is too high for me. 499 Euros = 659.692059 Canadian dollars. I
pay less in rent. At $400 it's a strertch, but I could maybe pull it off by
February/March. It's just a matter of time before I get one, but it won't
be soon.

B) GSM in my area is very expensive. The only providers that have a fair
price where I live are UMTS IV (aka AWS). With the GSM networks, I'm
looking at 3 times more than the AWS networks. I have to factor in this
cost as well or relegate the GTA04 to a PDA.

C) I don't want to risk breaking my beloved FR. Section 4.9 of the manual
should highlight my concern. When I get my hands on a GTA04, I'll probably
do the switch at my local hack space under the supervision of a hardware
geek. FYI, I've had my FR since near launch and it's been sole phone even
when #1024 was making me miss calls. To go from an FR to a GTA04 would

 Betreff: [FOSDEM] Third call for sessions for the FOSDEM cross-distribution 
 miniconference
 
 Hi all,
 
 (note MFT set to distributi...@lists.fosdem.org)
 
 FOSDEM is a yearly conference that takes place in the campus Solbosch of
 the Université Libre the Bruxelles, in Brussels, Belgium. The upcoming
 edition of FOSDEM will happen during the first weekend of February, that
 is, the 4th and 5th of February, 2012.
 
 During the past two editions, there has been a distributions
 miniconference at FOSDEM, inviting talks from all distribution projects.
 Distributions that have cooperated in the past include Debian, Fedora,
 CentOS, openSUSE, Mandriva, NixOS, and more.
 
 The distributions miniconference will happen again this year, and we are
 still seeking proposals for sessions.
 
 I've sent out two previous calls for sessions for the miniconference
 that set the deadline for talk proposals to December 22nd, 2011, which
 is tomorrow.
 
 A list of current proposals can be found at
 http://barbershop.grep.be/~wouter/fosdem/2012/talk_proposals.txt.
 There are some interesting proposals there, but unfortunately there
 aren't enough; we'll have two rooms for two days, which means we'll have
 around 32 hours worth of talk slots.
 
 A variety of sessions are welcome; round-table talks, BoFs as well as
 presentations, on any subject related to distribution development.
 Sessions can be about a subject specific to one particular distribution,
 or can be targetted to distribution developers in general.
 
 As said, the original deadline was December 22nd, but I am hereby
 extending the deadline until January 1st, 2012.
 
 People interested in holding a talk or chairing a BoF or round table are
 hereby invited to submit a proposal to the
 distributi...@lists.fosdem.org mailinglist (moderated for
 non-subscribers), containing the following information:
 
 - their name,
 - a (short) bio,
 - a title for the session,
 - an abstract for the session,
 - an expected duration for the session, including time for questions by
  the audience.
 
 Note that the distributi...@lists.fosdem.org mailinglist may also be
 used to discuss possible BoFs or round tables before actually formally
 proposing a session, or for general discussion relating to the
 miniconference.
 
 Note: feel free to forward this call to a wider audience on other
 mailinglists where appropriate.
 
 Regards,

I think this is the most important FOSDEM Devroom for Openmoko users and 
developers.

 Betreff: [FOSDEM] Call for presentations: Open Mobile Linux at FOSDEM 2012
 
 Hi,
 
 At FOSDEM 2012 we will have a devroom related to Open Mobile Linux.
 Our primary goal is to facilitate meetups, collaboration and awareness
 between different projects and communities within Open Mobile Linux
 and provide a place to present directions, ideas and your projects
 themselves.
 
 By Open Mobile Linux we mean any open source projects revolving around
 typical non-desktop/server Linux, such as handsets, tablets, netbooks
 or other creative uses. Examples of such projects could be Qt5, Mer,
 MeeGo, Android, webOS, Plasma Active, Tizen, Boot to Gecko, SHR and
 other related projects.
 
 We have the room AW1.120 with 74 seats, a video projector (VGA),
 wireless internet on Saturday 4th February for a total of 8 hours.
 
 The format we will be utilizing is lightning talks of length 15
 minutes with 10 minutes of questions, 5 minute changeover to next
 speaker. Our goal is about 15 talks during the day.
 
 The motivation is that after each talk, you and your project will be
 visible to the rest of the Open Mobile Linux community and further
 deeper discussions into your topic with your peers can continue
 outside the devroom.
 
 Please send a short biography and an abstract for your talk to
 carsten.m...@gmail.com by Dec 31st 2011, and we'll get back to you at
 latest January 7th.

 Hi,
 yesterday i have finally stopped my wooden case attempts, put the GTA04 in my 
 Freerunner's case and started working on software. The reason is that i would 
 need better tools for the wooden case and i dont want to damage the GTA04 
 board or the display.
 
 QtMoko has now support for GTA04 keys, it can read battery (only in 60s 
 intervals, polling has to be done yet), it can turn on/off backlight, it 
 seems 
 that the modem can receive SMS, read contacts and i could even make phone 
 call 
 (without sound yet).
 
 I found very helpful this page [1].
 
 I will keep you updated.

 Betreff: [FOSDEM] Cross-Distribution devroom: Call for Participation
 
 Hi,
 
 Now that the word is out on the list of accepted devrooms, we can sure
 expect many calls for participation from the many devrooms on this list.
 Let me be the first (I hope):
 
 There will again be a cross-distribution miniconference at FOSDEM this
 year. People or distribution projects who are interested in joining it
 are hereby invited to communicate that desire.
 
 For practical purposes, I would like to request that one person steps
 forward from each involved distributions devroom, so that we can list
 the participating projects on our website (as during previous years),
 but also so that I have some contact within each project in case it's
 needed.
 
 People interested in holding a session should let that intention be
 known on the distributi...@lists.fosdem.org mailinglist, with the
 following information:
 
 - Their name
 - A (short) bio, to be put on the website along with their speaker name
 - (optionally) a picture of themselves
 - The title of their session (which will go on the website and in the
  booklet)
 - A (short) abstract describing the session in further detail.
 - The desired approximate duration for the session.
 
 Sessions can be talks, round tables, BoFs, or any number of other things
 that could generally benefit from an audience of distributions
 developers. In the case of BoF or round table sessions, note that I will
 still consider the submitter to be the 'speaker', though their role will
 probably be more something of a moderator.
 
 The deadline for submissions is December 22nd.

 A project meeting point means that there isn't a booth manned all 4 days
 but only for specific time slots. Rene and Christoph (FRNB) will be there
 and Mickey (FSO) will also come from time to time.
 
 And, we have received 15 free 4-day tickets from the LinuxTag

 please mail me ASAP so that I can send you the ticket.
 
 As far as I understand, you will receive a link where you can

 We will show the single GTA04A2 device in operation.
 
 Hope to see you all in Berlin next week,

I think this can also be of interest to the Openmoko community.


Am 19.04.2011 um 09:46 schrieb Jan Tuennermann:

 Ron,
 
 thanks for forwarding.  ROS (Robot Operating System) is a kind of meta 
 operating system. It does not really handle OS functions, also it is not real 
 time. It's a great concept that boosts development in the robotic area. It is 
 based on a publisher / subscriber paradigm; you implement your software as 
 node which will publish and receive messages. For example, if you wrap a face 
 detection algorithm or something in a ROS-node, it would subscribe to image 
 messages and probably publish a custom message with coordinates of a face, or 
 maybe another image with the face marked. This node can now receive images 
 from any node that publishes images. For example, a webcam-node. Or a node 
 that loads test-data from hard drive or maybe from a 3D-Simulator. Also, 
 there are a lot of components that already come with ROS. So if we wanted to 
 display the image with the face marked in it, we would just need to make an 
 image_view node (comes with ROS) to subscribe our images. More complex 
 components can display 3D point-clouds (for example from a laser range 
 finder), etc.  ROS nodes register with a master and they don't need to be on 
 the same machine, as they can communicate over network.
 
 Right now I'm trying to get a gpsd_client node to run on the OpenMoko. On a 
 remote PC a gpsd_viewer node will run, subscribing gpsFix messages which it 
 will use to display the Moko's location in a map from the OpenStreetMap 
 project. I'm planning to connect the Moko to a micro- controler which then 
 controls a RC-car. I tested this before, so I'm optimistic that I will get it 
 working. When it works I might add a X-Box kinnect, which is already 
 supported by ROS to capture 2D and 3D visual information to enable the RC-car 
 for autonomous driving. 
 
 best regards,
 Jan

 I spent some time on the weekend to get ROS diamondback running on the 
 OpenMoko smart phone Neo Freerunner. With it's WiFi,  GPS, Accelerometers 
 and Linux capabilities it might be an alternative for robot projects where a 
 netbook is to large or to heavy.
 
 I put an installation guide here: http://www.ros.org/wiki/freerunner
 
 I was not really sure where to put it, as it is not really a tutorial and 
 also no stack description. So if the place is inappropriate, it would be

Dear community,

hackable:1 is still alive, and even welcomed a new developer (hi Trim!)
Better, we are currently preparing another release of hackable:1, based
on the DeforaOS smartphone environment (details below).

A number of fixes and improvements made it to the beta since its
original announcement last week, including the long-awaited homescreen
support. Screenshot:

Dear hackable:1 developers and users,

it is now time for me to announce the beta version of dse2, or second
release of the DeforaOS smartphone environment as found on hackable:1.
Is still adheres to the initial goal of hackable:1, as in:
- based on Debian,
- focusing on GNOME Mobile software and user experience.

It features however an almost complete re-implementation of the user
interface and telephony software compared to the last official release,
rev5, which was based on the software stack from OpenedHand shipping on
the Openmoko Freerunner for its launch, and known as Om2007.2.

You can read more about the environment itself here already:
https://trac.hackable1.org/trac/wiki/DeforaOSSmartphone

And of course, the images themselves can be found there:
http://build.hackable1.org/releases/dse2-beta/
where Hackable1-Openmoko-Freerunner-phone-2011.03a-rootfs.jffs2 is meant
to be flashed to the NAND memory via dfu-util, and
Hackable1-Openmoko-Freerunner-phone-2011.03a.tar.gz is for MicroSD cards
in the expansion slot.

The list of changes since dse1 are numerous, and I will certainly forget
some, even while listing only the most significant ones:

- complete re-implementation of the images generation system
  = images are now based on the new stable Debian version, squeeze
  = the images shipped no longer need apt trickery to be upgraded
  = support for other distributions than Debian can be easily added

- major improvements to the user interface
  = more space for applications on the screen
  = the virtual keyboard is more usable (windows are resized when
 showed)
  = file associations can be set and changed directly from the file
 browser's preferences dialog
  = new web browser, task list manager and media player
  = usability fixes for finger-based interaction

- improved telephony and mobility support
  = GPRS support was added
  = the screen locks automatically
  = suspend and resume are supported as well

- newer kernel, with fixes for hardware support
  = MicroSD cards can be mounted again

Unfortunately, not everything could always be kept as well as it was
before, or improved as much as planned and hoped in time for this release:

- the Show desktop button could be fixed, but there is no way to
  enable the homescreen yet
  = a proper integration with matchbox-window-manager is still required
- pre-installed GPS support had to be removed
  = too many dependencies for gpsd
- wireless support is also not pre-installed
  = too many dependencies for wicd
- hardware buttons are still not supported
  = neod can now be installed again though
- the HTC TouchPro is not supported in a decent way yet
- support for other telephony backends (SIP, osmocore) is ongoing but
  still not good enough to be released here

Although, there is still time to work some more on this version. My
objective is to release dse2 next week-end, or after a release-candidate
cycle if necessary. Let me know what should be done before then!

Of course, I will welcome any other comments, feedback, bug reports,
patches, contributions of any kind.

Cheers and hope this helps!

Dear community,

hackable:1 is still alive, and even welcomed a new developer (hi Trim!)
Better, we are currently preparing another release of hackable:1, based
on the DeforaOS smartphone environment (details below).

A number of fixes and improvements made it to the beta since its
original announcement last week, including the long-awaited homescreen
support. Screenshot:

You might get a presentation in one of the biggest rooms.
Perhaps you can motivate more devs to help us getting

Dear David Lanzendoerfer,

Unfortunately your devroom request for FOSDEM 2011 was declined.
You might have discovered this indirectly already, we are very sorry for 
that. Something went wrong in the sending of the decline-mails, we did 
not wish for this to happen in this way.


To clarify, your request was perfectly valid, but we had to choose. 
Unfortunately we do not have a sufficient number of rooms to our 
disposal to cover all requests.


Nevertheless, there are other ways to participate in FOSDEM too. A call 
for participation will be announced around next week, with opportunities to:

- have a stand at FOSDEM,
- hold a FOSDEM lightningtalk in one of the biggest rooms,
- speak in one of the other devrooms.

More specifically, like previous years there will be an 'embedded' 
devroom for all software on embedded and mobile devices.
The contact person is Philippe De Swert philippedesw...@gmail.com, 
contact him if you wish to participate in this devroom.



On behalf of the FOSDEM devroom team,
Tias

Yes, they have a different view on all the projects. As far as
I understand there aren't any hardware-centerted devrooms.

 Sadly our project is still to small to get a room or so.

This may be the main question for the FOSDEM organizers - what exactly is our 
project.
For them it may appear to be something fragmented between Distribution, 
Telephony, Embedded.

For all those components they have separate Devrooms.

 Dunno.

Yes, that is also my impression.

What we can do is to organize our own virtual devroom. Idea:

* we open a page fosdem2011 on wiki.openmoko.org
* everyone tries to get a presentation into all relevant devrooms
-- Mickey @ Telephony
-- Nikolaus @ Embedded or Lightning
-- Serdar @ Distribution miniconf
-- SHR @ Distribution miniconf
-- etc.
* on the wiki page we collect the time, location, title etc. to 
provide our own Openmoko view into the FOSDEM database...

What do you think?

  Mickey? Nikolaus? Do you wanna hold your presentation

Last FOSDEM was my first, making me not too familiar with the organisation of 
the event. I did notice that though we occupied a couple of buildings, others 
were not in use. Would it be an option to organize a shadow-event nearby? Is 
one of us living near there? Perhaps the Brussel Hackerspace is willing to 
provide room outside FOSDEM-hours? It shouldn't be too far from the main FOSDEM 
event, so there's at least a remote chance of pulling some not-OM-visitors to 
the event. If there's interest in organizing something like that, I volunteer 
to make phonecalls or send mails after receiving some pointers where to look 
for room.

 (...) the program of the embedded room
 seems to be

Well, it's FOS-, not FOHWDEM. I hope it will shift towards open hardware more 
and more (there were the RepRap, Arduino and Beagleboard besides OM, perhaps 
others I didn't notice)

 No!!! I do not misunderstand... Yourself you said the same... Indeed there

The lowest common denominator is already present, it's the dumb (but

Re: Fwd: [SHR-T-Latest] PISI problems

2010-04-18 Thread Tony Berth
Hi,

I did follow that link and worked out:

http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td4721283

Is any way to import SMS messages stored in SIM card as well?

Thanks

Tony

 Looks like a problem with your PISI configuration file
 (/home/root/.pisi/conf) ...

 Any chance you could post the relevant part of your config (around dbus
 configuration)??? ... I guess, there is some spelling mistake with
 contacts_dbussim

Aaaah, I think I got it ...

You call PISI the wrong way (meaning with invalid arguments); instead of
providing detailed information about the data sources, you need to
provide the section names as defined in the config file (the details are
then defined in there).

if you type

  pisi -l

PISI will show you available sections. My guess is (with your config
file), your call should look like:

  pisi -v shrsim vcf1

Please let me know if you need more input. Best

Re: Fwd: Glamo secrets, acceleration, X11, directfb, was: [E-devel] X11 dependencies hardcoded in ecore_evas

On Sun, 18 Apr 2010 13:38:11 +0200 mobi phil m...@mobiphil.com said:

 did not reply to all ... so here is the forward maybe it is of interest
 for someone else...

better :)

 Changed the topic name
 
 Thanks for your time for helping clarifying the mistery

np.

   non-X elf etc, other lightweight fb apps), the lowest c. denominator.
   And that could have been directfb, but I am more convinced that not. One
  of
   usage of this c. denominator would have been to have a global keyboard,
   that would cold be rendered on top of any application. taping the
   rendering engine, probably would have been easy.
 
  dfb isnt common to fb and x11 - it is an enitre display system of its own.
  there is a specific xdirectfb server on top of dfb. but it is not a common
  component. i think you misunderstand directfb... :) \
 
 No!!! I do not misunderstand... Yourself you said the same... Indeed there
 is a simple xdirectfb on top of dfb. So If everybody, Qt based apps (QtMoko)
 and X would talk to directfb, then directfb would be an almost perfect
 lowest common denominator.

so... if xdfb was so great... why is it not the standard display server for
linux? :) directfb was a solution to set top box hardware. it hasn't seemed to
remain competitive with x - for a long time it was very interesting, but it
just never caught on. xdfb was a compatibility layer - your overhead will go up
compared to regular x - just by a little, but it will.

  but - you'd need all the acceleration written and even then the chip simply
  is not capable of many ops
  you need or it makes them needlessly complex (you will need to go via the
  3d
  unit and that limits all pixel primitives to 256x256 as a source and output
  cant be more than 512x512 for any buffer - you'd need to do complex tiling
  of
  all input and output and that will wreak havoc on things like
  transforms/scaling to make it look right - and effectively make it
  impossible).
 
 Why would I go through the 3d unit? Again... I have limited info, but what
 is the most important is to have at least the

because your 2d unit cant do all the things you need - as you are hunting for
units that can do the work you need. you can pretty much choose to use the 3d
unit to do 2d work - or use the 2d parts. sometimes you can create a bastard
frankenstein combo of them. but you have a 3d unit and a 2d accel unit. i know
the 2d accel unit better than the 3d one (the 3d docs were fairly sparse).

so you either try do it with the 2d unit - and then fall back to software to
make up for missed operations more often (see later on), or... you try and do
as many ops all in hardware (much better) but create rediculous complexity to
work around even more restrictive limits.

  trust me - have full hw docs. had them from the day i started with glamo
  long
  before gta02 came out. after some reading i went from excited to
  despondent.
  glamo does not live up to what it seems to appear reading its checklist
  features. sure - it's possible to go accelerate some things and get some
  benefit.
 
 If one would get the first 80% (that is for me scrolling and maybe huge fill
 rects), then I think it would be a huge step, or?

scrolling == redraw. you can't just copy pixels when you scroll in efl - those
pixels may be on top of a background (they are transparent/translucent) that
doesn't move. that means you NEEED to redraw. in fact thats how all things in
evas work - they can be blended, layered etc. - even text - something as simple
as that has an alpha channel. and parts of your text are semi-transparent. you
cannot just copy pixels in the framebufffer and redraws the newly exposed
things. that is an old model of redraw. its the 1980's and 1990's model. it's
NOT the model you use in this millenium - or you shouldn't. it's simply not
where hardware is going. hardware  is going - nor ui design and application
requirements. as such games have done the redraw model for a VERY long time.
the rest of the 2d ui world is moving that way. efl is designed to be there
already. it has redraw minimisation, but it's still redraw.

you CANNOT scroll something that has an alpha channel by just copying pixels in
the fb up and redrawing the new bits. it simply is impossible. it creates
artifacts and the backgrounds also shifts with the pixels. it ALSO creates
redraw artifacts where you copy that then wait for the new pixels to be drawn,
having flickery displays that catch up to the user. it also means you have
zero hope to ever have tear-free synchronous drawing as you are blitting around
in the front buffer as opposed to rendering new frames/updates in a backbuffer.

 for each of those you now have a downside as u need a software
  fallback for the ones you can't - and... those now get more complex WITH
  more
  overhead. you make operation a 2x faster and operation b gets half the
  speed.
 
 Why would op. be get half speed? Unless we are talking about concrete
 example, would be difficult to argue.

  For me personally, the most effective demonstrations - and hence
  publicity - are good Youtube videos.  So I would recommend SHR users
  to prepare some really slick ones, showing lots of different uses of
  the phone - and including for phone calls! :-)  Then the best of those
  can be linked from any press releases.
 
  I think your other ideas are good too, but some slick, well produced
  videos would be great.

 Would it be worth trying to get some videos with a non-debug kernel?



I have added two pages on the OM wiki

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/SHR_Videos

and

Please add your links and stories there :)

Ether that or use something like Pastebin for all the debugging output and
other large amounts of text, but the best thing in a case like that would be
to open a bug report.

 Hi everyone,

 Just an update that the Android application has been released on the
 Market. Simply search for FOSDEM.

 The iPhone app is also downloadable from the AppleStore.  (for some  
 time now)

 I will send one more announcement once the Maemo application is  
 released.

seg fault with libsyncml [was: Re: Fwd: Re: pisi depenencies (because of forgot to send in the list)]

2010-01-20 Thread Michael Pilgermann
Hi all,

I got really enthusiastic when I heart about the available syncml libs
now ...

So; I started my tests again - taking PISI on desktop with syncml source
first - all working perfectly; doing exactly the same on the Freerunner
(SHR-T; libsyncml2 installed) gives me a seg fault!?

Any ideas or experiences with that??
(Best would be of course also with a Python wrapper)

Thanks,
Michael

 Good morning Vinzenz,
 
 I think, I did not fully understand you question - I am noticing that now. 
 It's not about PISI in particular, but more about how I integrated the syncml 
 thing ...??
 
 Well - let me start this way: It was a pain in the ass! Honestly. Libs are 
 really rare - and documentation is even rarer. 
 I tried a few of them - ending up with an alpha branch of Conduit 
 (http://live.gnome.org/Conduit). In the sources I found some unstable code 
 for 
 syncing against Syncml 
 (http://git.gnome.org/browse/conduit/tree/conduit/modules/SyncmlModule?h=syncml).
  
 I applied some changes and integrated that into PISI 
 (http://github.com/kichkasch/pisi/tree/master/thirdparty/conduit/).
 
 I am still not sure, how you exactly want to integrate with libsyncml ... but 
 I hope, this helps a bit.
 As I said: from a Desktop I can sucessfully sync against Syncml-Server (here 
 Mobical) with PISI.

 Hi Vinzenz,

 in fact, Syncml support is fully implemented in PISI already; however, I

_to_ the correct nand partition, i.e. when flashing rootfs you should
use -a rootfs dfu-util switch. Other than that, it still worth trying
to check another cable/port even if other devices work ok. Have you
already checked the meaning of the error btw?
 
  I'll try to get another cable.
 
  Yes, I use flag '-a' for rootfs but didn't find the meaning of that
 error!
  That's my problem too!

 Looks like it's directly what usb_control_msg returns and it means
 ETIMEDOUT
 obviously.


so this means that the connection just times out?

_to_ the correct nand partition, i.e. when flashing rootfs you should
use -a rootfs dfu-util switch. Other than that, it still worth trying

2010/1/5 Steven Jones sjo...@enrgies.com:

 So it seems, downgrading hal packages to 0.5.13-6 solved this touch
 screen problem for me.


 FWIW, looks to me like this bug:
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=562052.

       Neil



 Neil, could you point me to the location of 0.5.13-6? I am unable to find
 the repository with that version.

My method for this would be to:
- run aptitude
- find the hal package
- press Enter to bring up a new screen with detailed information for
that package.

Then, at or near the bottom, you should see the available versions,
including 0.5.13-6.  Move down to that line and press + to tell
aptitude that you want to install that version.

If you don't see that version, I would guess that you need to update
your /etc/apt/sources.list so that it includes the Debian testing
repository as well as unstable, then run apt-get update or
aptitude update to update your package information, then retry as
above.

Hope some of that helps!

Fwd: [Shr-User] SHR-testing upgrade. PLEASE READ BEFORE UPGRADING

2009-12-22 Thread Thomas Zimmermann

--  Weitergeleitete Nachricht  --

Betreff: [Shr-User] SHR-testing upgrade. PLEASE READ BEFORE UPGRADING
Datum: Dienstag 22 Dezember 2009
Von: Sebastian Spaeth sebast...@sspaeth.de
An: SHR-user shr-u...@lists.shr-project.org, SHR-devel shr-
de...@lists.shr-project.org

I just pushed an update to the shr-testing repository. How to upgrade 
and what has changed?

--
Make big upgrades work
--
This upgrade will unfortunately require manual attention. Why? opkg 
downloads all upgrades to /tmp (which is in RAM), so for big upgrades 
your RAM will be full even before it starts upgrading.

There are 2 solutions for this:

1. Only install one package at a time, calling opkg multiple time. 
This is quite easy and described here: 
http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/opkg#Installonepackageatatime
2. Create a swap file that allows to swap out the downloads on the 
SD card. I recommend this anyway: 
http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/swap#Createaswapfile. If you are 
afraid that your SD card will die soon because of this, I don't think so 
and they are cheap anyway, so if you need to buy a new one every 2 
years, what the heck.

--
Remove SHR-TODAY
--
Before starting the upgrade do opkg remove -force-depends shr-today. 
Opkg *should* be removing this automatically, however according to some 
reports opkg failed to do so (due to opkg stupidness), and keeping 
shr-today seems to cause weird lockups. So get rid of it in advance.

--
Safety tipp: screen session
--
- Do run this upgrade (as in every upgrade) in a screen session. My FR 
display froze during the upgrade (access through ssh still worked)
- It's a big upgrade unfortunately which takes some time. All kernel 
modules and all the efl stuff seems to have been bumped.

--
What is new:
--
- Plenty of changes to the shr phone apps...
- Dimming is now done with a  dim phase rather than the simple on/off. 
Timeouts can be set for the Idle and Idle_dim timeouts. To make these 
changes persistent, modify the values in /etc/frameworkd.conf
- python-based shr-today is no more. It is now rewritten in C and 
integrated into the shr UI. It's reportedly faster than the old lock screen.

Bugs that I have seen:
- The new idle screen does not show the signal strength for me
- During the opkg upgrade process my phone suspended and this aborted 
the upgrading Annoying, I know. I now tap on the screen while 
updating which is pretty silly but Of course, what you should be 
doing is to automatically request the CPU resource while running updates 
using this technique: 
http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/opkg#Preventsuspendwhileupgrading

To sum it up: if you see mysterious screen hangs, you have still 
shr-today installed and/or running.

Fwd: [Shr-User] ANNOUNCE: new shr-testing image

Betreff: [Shr-User] ANNOUNCE: new shr-testing image
Datum: Freitag 04 Dezember 2009
Von: Sebastian Spaeth sebast...@sspaeth.de
An: SHR-user shr-u...@lists.shr-project.org, SHR-devel shr-
de...@lists.shr-project.org

After a long fight with our SHR buildhost, I finally managed it:

I created a new shr-testing image which is supposed to do the following:

- always give you a working phone
- care about opkg upgrade'ability
- Be conservative in the number of cool on-the-edge features it takes

I expect that upgrades will hapen every 3-4 weeks or so. I will try to
upgrade things to a working set of revisions. All testing that I can
promise will be restricted to shr-lite-image things (there will be a
full image soon, but I haven't tested things there). I can also not test
GPRS (not using it).

Get it here:
http://build.shr-project.org/shr-testing

Upgrading from a current shr-unstable might or might not work (I have
not tested that). I forked off on November 30 or so, and I haven't
tested whether a lot of packages would need downgrading from -unstable.

Install it, set your root password manually (if you care about ssh
login) and you should be good to go. Installing on NAND, you will see
tons of error messages pass by on the 1st boot, that seems normal and
will go away after some time (1st boot takes longer!).

If you want to help out:
http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/shr-testing2009
is a page with my commit policy. (it's flexible though) :-)

Bug reports agains shr-testing (via trac) are welcome too.

 Ever since I saw that the SHR feeds didn't get updated for a while I
  compiled SHR myself from the shr/import branch, so I already knew that

 For me the usage of opimd for contacts is the nicest new feature. It has a
  VCF backend, so I could just scp my Kaddressbook contacts over to the FR
  and have all my contacts available. nice!

I'm using the latest testing image (4/12/2009) and I'm wondering where in the 
filesystem I have to put my vcf contacts. I'm having trouble installing pisi, 
and it actually isn't worth the trouble if I can just use your method. I just 
can't find out where I have to put my vcf.

Thanks in advance.

 
 Graphic speed felt a little slower though, and the interfacing with FSO was
  broken in some places, like the power management. Also the power button
  didn't bring up the popup menu. But these are all findings of a few weeks
  back, so most will probably be long fixed already.
 
 Thanks again, looking forward to the next stable unstable release of SHR!

  Hi all, for those of you few that do not live 24/7 in IRC land, here is
  a not-so-brief update on what is happening in SHR land. No, we are not
  all dead :).
 
  There are a couple of major transitions that have slowed down new images
  or indeed any updates in the SHR feed. Let me try to sum up a few and  I
  am sure others will chime in and list whatever I have forgotten:
 
  - Transition from the obsolete kdrive-glamo driver to a proper xorg
  server infrastructure. This took some time, but it appears that it is
  working fine now. Don't expect any (initial) performance boosts, but
  being on a regular xorg server and having a driver that is actually
  being developed and maintained is a good thing for the future (thanks to
  Weiss and others for some really hard work here).
 
  - More fso...d goodness. Rather than having Mickey Lauer's python
  prototyped phone backend, we are starting to his re-written bits and
  pieces (coded in vala, which should give us a nice performance boost
  over python). For the beginning we have the resource handling
  (fsoresourced) on board and look forward to the next bits and pieces. I
  know very little about the state of things here, so others might have
  more information.
 
  -New phone apps: As if that were not enough changes, the core team
  (mrmoku, tasn, dos1, and others?) has started to redevelop the frontend
  applications for SHR. the old ophonekitd was initially developed by a
  guy called quickev who has been missing in action since quite some
  months now. Don't ask ME why, but apparently the now design allows for
  better/quicker/whatnot development. I'll let one of them speak out for
  themselves about the motivations. Besides lots of work,this gives us
  also a chance to redesign the screens and make the UI better. So goodbuy
  ophonekitd and libphone-efl, welcome phoneui, and libphoneui-shr.
 
  -Bernd Prünzler(spelling?) is kind enough to help out with some theme
  development (BTW, you did know there is a theme contest going on, do
  you? So, go and design and submit something already!). The default theme
  has been designed for powerful desktops, and is using more transparency
  and other fancy stuff than the slow graphics can do. He is developing a
  theme that should be much faster on the Freerunner (but don't expect
  miracles, the hardware will still be barely able to drive a full
  VGA-resolution screen). So expect a big fight between dos1 (niebee
  theme) and bernd (gry theme) for the fastest performance (while
  retaining good looks).
 
  Last but not least: what we had done the last few months, is basically
  taking a fork of OpenEmbedded and developing from that. While this gave
  us the stability to code apps without having others break our stuff (we
  are quite capabable of doing that ourselves it seems :-) ), this led to
  a quickly diverging SHR and OE tree. It was decided that we really
  should include our stuff into OpenEmbedded proper, rather than just
  doing our stuff in parallel. So we had first put all the stuff into an
  SHR/import git tree which is in the openembedded code repository.
  Next, mrmoku created the shr/merge tree which is kept in sync with the
  OpenEmbedded tree and we ported all our enhancements there. The plan is
  to take our bits and pieces from here and merge them into OE over time.
  This is where we currently stand, we want to keep using the shr/merge
  tree which gives us a current OE 

Re: FWD: FOSDEM 2010: Devroom for openmoko declined

2009-12-01 Thread PieterC

Hi Dave, Philippe, Robert, Pieter

As every year, we have a lot more devroom requests than actual rooms
and, as such, we decided that there wouldn't be a Mobile devroom on its own.

Please get in touch with Philippe De Swert (in CC:) to coordinate a
Mobile+Embedded devroom in the Embedded devroom.

Philippe, here is Dave's proposal for a Mobile devroom:
---8-
Mobile platforms and development has become more and more prominent over
the past years, with the advent of Netbooks, internet tablets and other
small-form-factor devices running a graphical Linux environment.

The Mobile devroom will have content related to Maemo, Moblin, LiMo,
GNOME Mobile, OpenEmbedded and other mobile-related subjects.
---8-

On a side note, we also received a devroom request for OpenEmbedded (on
its own, not as part of the Mobile devroom). We declined that request
and, instead, directed Robert Schuster (who made the request and is in
CC:) to Philippe.

Same thing for OpenMoko by the way -- Pieter Colpaert made the request
for OpenMoko, that has also been declined, and he is also in CC:

Note that for us, Philippe is our contact person for the Embedded
devroom (or Embedded+Mobile or whatever it'll be called), not least
because he has been very successfully doing so for quite a few years.
Hence, as far as we are concerned, his call is the last call ;)

Our devroom got declined,
however  Philippe De Swert will be open to accept openmoko talks and I think
we should be happy to do so. It's good to do less talks for a wider audience

Fwd: [E-devel] Important change in python elementary

Hi guys,
I think that it's a good thing forward the following email here!

Ciao
Luca

Date: Sun, Nov 22, 2009 at 10:28 PM
Subject: [E-devel] Important change in python elementary
To: enlightenment-de...@lists.sourceforge.net


I've committed some changes to how callbacks are handled in python elementary.
If you use it, your application is now broken, I'm sorry. However,
it's better now than letter :)

So, what have changed?
You used to bind a callback to the clicked of a button this way:
bt.clicked = my_func
or
bt.clicked = (my_func, my_data)

The signature of the callback was always: my_func(obj, event, data)
even if you had not set any data!
What if you wanted to perform 2 actions? How could you remove the callback?

Now, in order to connect a function to an event, let say 'clicked', you use:
bt.callback_clicked_add(func, *args, **kwargs)

The required signature is my_func(obj, *args, **kwargs) or
my_func(obj, it, *args, **kwargs) if an item is given, for example
when an item in a toolbar is clicked.

If you want to disconnect this function to the event, you call:
bt.callback_clicked_remove(func, *args, **kwargs)
if func is None, all the events bound to 'clicked' are removed.
args and kwargs must be the same as those given when the callback was set.

Now, this is possible:
def destroy(win, str1, str2, str3, str4):
   print :str1='%s', str2='%s', str3='%s', str4='%s' %(
       str1, str2, str3, str4)

win.callback_destroy_add(destroy, test1, test2, str3=test3, str4=test4)



To sum up:
when you used:
obj.EVENT = XXX
now you should use:
obj.callback_EVENT_add(XXX)


I've updated the testing file. I hope to have patched correctly editje.

 [Nov 19 2009, The Internets] It's been psychologically proven that the
 longer you wait for your presents, the more happy you will be when you
 finally get them. It seems, the SHR team wants to make you REALLY happy
 and has let you waiting for quite some time without updates to
 shr-unstable...
 
 ENOUGH WAITING. Christmas comes a bit early this year, and a new
 SHR-unstable image is out for public consumption. 

In Russia, we have Christmas at 7th of january, this does not mean that
God born that day, this means that we've changed our calendars 2,5
centuries later, i hope...

Now about shr. I've missed intone in Qtmoko! Want to say that new
graphics is really impressive, it's pleasure to look at it, despite of
thinking about 640*480*2=2 Mb memory for image ;). New gry theme is
really fast and nice, and this thing compensates well impossibility to
switch to x11_16 rendering.

New volume controls while call are nice thing, contacts look and feel
very good. I noticed even backup control in settings!

Of course, device is unusable without Thomas kernel patch. With that
patch it's really fast like a... like a usual device, except some things
like tangogps with large map, and main screen. I didn't notice if
someone post prebuild kernel with modules, so here is mine andy-tracking
with whole Thomas patch and all debug disabled:
http://www.bsdmn.com/openmoko/. Btw, why kernel debug things are enabled
in kernels now for ordinary users in ordinary distributions? Without it
feels faster. Can't wait until 2.6.31 will be ready and in
distributions! Btw, I checked this with both shr and qtmoko - boost is
amazing. Only thing I don't know is how to transfer pint of best beer to
location of patches author. So far, I didn't notice any problems with
kernel.

Now, list of bug I noticed so far, hope I can help at least as tester
having few time as developer:

First, I've updated it once after initial flash.

0. Scrolling in contacts! It thinks that release of finger is click,
really annying. How to fix that?

1. Double touchscreen hit problem. It is needed to tap 2 times to run
contacts or messages.

2. Update button in seettings for power consumption is fact don't
updates.

3. lockscreen things - correct name of calling person. Easy reset of
'unanswered calls' and 'new messages' - they keep on top even if I've
look at them.

4. It's impossible to add contact in easy way - you have to 'add field'.
Also, I've got a crash of whole telephony system adding new contact from
sms nubber.

5. Battery charge indicator sometimes crying that battery discharged. It
fix itself in minute, but annoying a bit.

6. Sometimes, it telephony stops working. In such cases I see speaker
volume as 0 while calling and can't hear other party even moving slider.

7. Midori is as always without proper fonts.

Big thanks from me as an openmoko user for new things. I am using it for
few days and it is real pleasure.

... so, for whoose who followed my mail to this point - i hope all bugs
will be fixed and all users of Openmoko will get their one more
Christmas presents :)

 in kernels now for ordinary users in ordinary distributions? Without it
 feels faster. Can't wait until 2.6.31 will be ready and in
 distributions! Btw, I checked this with both shr and qtmoko - boost is
 amazing. Only thing I don't know is how to transfer pint of best beer to
 location of patches author. So far, I didn't notice any problems with
 kernel.

If whole Thomas patch you mean drm-tracking branch from Thomas White
then its built almost daily (sometimes even few times a day :)) here:
http://build.shr-project.org/tests/mrmoku/kms/
This kernel is not in shr-unstable by default just because all shr devs
get WSOD during resume with this one, but we like it a lot.


If you want to try 2.6.31 with all Thomas's patches again
http://build.shr-project.org/tests/mrmoku/2.6.31/
but expect some problems with ie sound/gsm/(W|B)SOD

The whole patch is simple one-liner against andy-tracking, published by
Thomas to change some FIFO depth (as far as I understood). Everything
still working after that patch, keeping nice boost. Default image was
unusable because of speed issues.

Thanks for links, I'll hope i can try them in spare time, but
unfortunately for me, I need gsm/sound and feel no need in any sort of
SOD. With QtMoko i've found a solution for death - just always keep it
plugged, now trying it with shr. ;)

I've just followed Carsten suggestion and tested several kernels with
lmbench, I wanted to publish it for interested people with separate
letter, but we started with kernel, here is it, anyway I don't know
where to proceed:

Last time I've tried to measure memory bandwidth on om, n810 and old
Celeron 600. Now I've got interesting results with om kernel, but
unfortunately didn't get n810 to my grasp to run lmbench where.

Most interesting thing is following:

*Local* Communication bandwidths in MB/s - bigger is better

yes, faster kernel is in middle :). the difference between two one is
kernel, both systems were tested with qtmoko bought down and top showing
0 load except top. interesting that on both kernels to showed different
load. As i've got similar results with my copy test (40mb/s), i think
that Thomas one-line patch (second kernel) is unrelated. So question is
open: in qtmoko, with qpe.sh brought down and no active processes except
top in top, which thing slows down whole device from 1/3 to 1/2? time I
was unable to run oprofile because of some problems between daemon and
kernel, next thing i plan is to investigate this. I attached whole
results for whoose who are interested.

Btw, I successfully resisted idea to buy N900 in favor of continue using
OM after reading this: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=31346 :)
After that, OM is evolving computer for me, n900 is not.

No...still has problems if rotatated while open.

Maybe this will get fixed with Samsung's help? ;)

Bad XMas present, bad! :!

Sorry, it's quite nice, but mrmoku's image from Friday 13th works better
as a phone.

Forgive my anger but today I almost missed being interviewed on a
major portuguese radio about our horrible CyberCrime law (similar
to the german horror)... fortunately I still had mrmoku's image
on another µ-sdhc card and quickly replaced it

Good news regarding CC law... the Chief Inspector of the investigative
police agrees with us (Free Software activists) and wants the law changed,
as well as the president of the association of judges :)

 [Nov 19 2009, The Internets] It's been psychologically proven that the
 longer you wait for your presents, the more happy you will be when you
 finally get them. It seems, the SHR team wants to make you REALLY happy
 and has let you waiting for quite some time without updates to
 shr-unstable...
 
 ENOUGH WAITING. Christmas comes a bit early this year, and a new
 SHR-unstable image is out for public consumption. Keep in mind that this
 is the first snapshot after quite many major transitions, so don't
 complain if things are a bit ..well... unstable in the beginning. We are
 working hard to stabilize things. If you depend on your phone, you will
 probably not yet want to use this, e.g. right now the ringtones aren't
 working (it just vibrates).
 
 We had no resources to provide a nice and working upgrade path, so an
 opkg upgrade is very likely to lead to a non-working system. (Really! It
 won't work. We know you'll try anyway :). It still won't work). So
 download the image (http://build.shr-project.org/shr-unstable), flash it
 and start afresh. I am writing this before the new images are out there,
 so be a bit patient before you can really grab them.
 
 We will take a branch off current shr-unstable in a couple of weeks
 (after the dust has settled a bit) and start a conservative branch that
 will allow for more -testing releases and -finally- a stable snapshot.
 If others want to volunteer to do that, I'll happy hand over that job
 though.
 
 So what has changed, and what to expect:
 
 * First don't expect any miracles. While stuff has changed under the
 hood, you are still owning a fine piece of open. but outdated hardware.
 But a path has been laid for future improvements (also performance
 wise), so this is the way to go. Also, we have tried to keep the look
 and feel as similar as possible in the new phone apps. You will feel
 very much at home there. But improvements are much easier now.
 * xorg server rather than glamo kdrive. We switched to using a
 proper xorg-server, with a graphics driver that is actively maintained.
 There have been some improvements, and developer Weiss thinks that there
 are more perf improvements to get.
 * eglibc rather than glibc. Just like Debian did, we switched our
 libc library from glibc to eglibc which (apparently) is a bit better
 suited  to embedded devices.
 * While the theme contest is still ongoing, we have decided to
 install the gry theme by Bernd Pruenster by default, it is faster than
 the default theme, which is not designed for obsolete embedded hardware.
 The illume theme is still set to default or Illume SHR, so try
 stasetting it to *gry* through the top bar wrench (preference settings)
 * The neo theme is also nice and fast. It is not installed by
 default, but it is in the feeds. You can easily install in with opkg
 install shr-theme-neo. Another theme to try out is the niebiee theme
 which has been designed with speed in mind (opkg install
 shr-theme-niebiee).
 * the python-based frameworkd is being replaced bit by bit with
 components written in Vala. The first components that we use are
 fsousaged (which replaces ousaged), fsodeviced, and fsonetworkd. Mickey
 posted a status update
 (http://www.vanille-media.de/site/index.php/2009/11/10/towards-the-end-
 of-2009/)
 on the new fso stuff.
 * phonefsod replaces the ophonekitd phone daemon and and
 phoneuid/libphoneui are now responsible for all things GUI with the
 phone apps.
 * opimd is included and we have the possibility to save incoming and
 outgoing SMS as well as contacts on the SIM card or on the SD card
 (using the sqlite backend). New SMS/contacts are now by default saved in
 a database on the FreeRunner (SD card or NAND), so be careful before
 reflashing! (Someone should probabably give instructions somewhere on
 how to change the configuration to use the SIM card as default and how
 to transfer data from one backend to another.)
 * We have proceeded with the integration work with openembedded.org
 and we are very close to

  2) I hear no sound on calls, the other side doesn't hear as well

If I could live with 1), I surely can't live with 2) :)
