RE: USB Host mode and OS2008

2007-12-11 Thread Juuso Räsänen

 How is it supposed to work? I flashed my N800 with OS2008 for N800
 Beta and plugged in an USB keyword (as I've read it would work without
 a powered HUB) but nothing happened. Are there some settings which
 must be activated?

The following commands helped for me:
~ $ sudo gainroot
/home/user # echo host /sys/devices/platform/musb_hdrc/mode

Or alternatively you can use a cable which has USB ID pin grounded.

I had a keyboard connected through an unpowered USB hub, and it worked. :)

When I first connect the hub (after the previous commands), N800 says that USB 
hub not supported and then few seconds later also Unable to connect. Device 
not supported.. Again when connecting keyboard I get a message USB device not 
supported. However, the keyboard seems to be working!

I also tried with a recompiled kernel with CONFIG_USB_OTG_WHITELIST disabled. 
It removed some of the above warnings but otherwise I didn't notice any 
difference in the behaviour.  What does this whitelist actually mean??

Memory stick seems to work as well. It is also automatically mounted and the 
File manager pops up too. :)

I'm puzzled by this too. In OS2007 this had some effect and I think USB 
devices did not work but people are reporting success even without this 
option. So far I was too lazy to switch this back on and see what works 
and what not. Maybe this still have some effect but most devices are 
enabled in the whitelist (like hubs, usb storage or HID devices) so with 
most devices there is not difference.

As for meaning - this whitelist should allow manufacturer to provide a 
list of tested and supported devices to kernel and disallow any other 
random device you may otherwise connect.
