Re: Stress test of my Freerunner
I attached my code. As said, it isn't much and not very user-friendly. However, I was surprised how few code is needed to get the idea working. storeLocation.py: This script is called on the FR to store the current coordinates to locations.dat E.g. storeLocation.py -t My Home -d This is where I live since 5 years Please modify http://myserver.org/; to your needs. sendLocations.sh: All locations stored in locations.dat can be send to the server with the small sendLocations.sh script. I used the http-get method since there was no urllib module in SHR. add.py: On the server side, add.py receives the coordinates as cgi script and stores the information to locations.dat. (I should change the name, since the content is different to locations.dat on the FR...) diary.kml: This is also a cgi script written in Python which creates the kml output from the content of locations.dat. Have fun :-) Sven Hi Sven, is it OK to use your code and GPL it? I started building a little GUI for what you have done as a travel diary sounds like a pretty good idea to me. You can see what I have done so far here: http://git.senfdax.de/?p=travel-diary;a=summary Currently it does nothing else than requesting GPS and diesplaying the fields. bitbake recipe to follow as soon as it really does something. Anyone interested in making an icon? Cheers, Christian ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Stress test of my Freerunner
As you already noticed from my last mail (Visit at Openmoko), I was traveling through Taiwan. I didn't want to blame anyone, but share my feelings with people that are also thrilled by this project. Nevertheless as several people already mentioned, we have an open phone! and there is a future! I use my Freerunner for several weeks as my daily phone now (started after the buzz was fixed by Daniel, thanks). However, the last two weeks I stretched my FR to the limit and it did it well: Few days before I started traveling Taiwan, I decided to make some GPS based diary for my friends at home. Thanks to the very easy API of FSO, I was able to write a basic application in Python within three evenings. The applications sends the current coordinates and some text to my server, where a KML file is created which can be downloaded by my friends. At the airport, I bought a cheap Taiwan SIM card and I started to transmit my position via GPRS (which also worked out-of-the-box). Furthermore, the timezone changed automagically based on GSM (my old Sony Ericsson wasn't able to do so). I had a lot of fun during the last weeks tracking my travel. Of course, I had some problems but I could solve all of them more or less. E.g. the SHR alarm application doesn't worked. So I did the alarm the bash way: sleep 28800 aplay alarm.wav :-) With this solution, the phone couldn't suspend. Luckily, the wall charger has Taiwan connections below the European adaptor :-) Furthermore, I was that adventurous to make an opkg upgrade during the travel :-) Thereafter, I couldn't suspend after I started GPRS. Annoying, but not a serious problem. I love my FR Sven P.S.: Now I start to fill some bug reports :-) ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
