I would phrase it slightly differently, but the bug tracker does seem like the best place to post some of these issues. There are still many problems with the software, nobody denies that, so it is very important to keep the information structured so the issues can be resolved as efficiently as possible. I know there is a ticket about the keyboard: http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1778 I have come across several discussions about wifi trouble and it seems there are many people working on this, but I can't find an overarching ticket. I'll create one in a minute. I haven't looked at the other issues you mentioned. Sjors ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Keyboard guid
Hi there, I am sure this has been announced before, but I am sure I am not the only one who only stumbled into it by accident after hours of experimentation and reading bug reports and heated debates. So I will just increase its pagerank a bit. There are two guides on how to use the new om2008.8 keyboard! http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Om2008.8_Keyboard http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Om_2008.8_Guide * how to switch between layouts (small, caps, numeric, special characters) * how to do backspace * how to turn it on and off Even though one of the guides is linked directly from http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Om2008.8, I think it needs a more prominent spot and a better catch phrase*. For some reason I did read the installation instructions, but did not even notice this important link. I think I am not the only one. So that means I am probably stupid, but so are most people; this will be a fun challenge for the usability team. * : e.g. right after install in the Download subsection (I would also switch these titles by the way; Install is the real main message here and you'll need to download before you can do that) have a Get started subsection. That should have a text like: You'll probably want to learn about the new keyboard.. Sjors ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

Re: Ruby 1.9 ported!!
I just managed to build ruby 1.8.6 with Mokomakefile with the latest patch level and fixed the socket problem in ruby, I installed gem and it worked, and irb seems to work fine. I'll put the ipk up somewhere [...] Sounds great. Can't wait! I don't see an easy way to include gem with this ipk as it is built on a host, but it is easy enough to install gem from source on the actual FR itself. Can you write a quick cookbook recipe on the wiki? Sjors ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Mofi crash on om2008.8
Hi there, I am trying to use Mofi [0] to access my wireless network. I've tried both the stable 0.2 and preview 0.3 version, installed from the ipk file. When I click on the Wifi Mofi icon, after a few seconds I get a really fancy looking but not very useful error message: Wifi Mofi has quit running unexpectedly. There was no error message. This error log will be saved as /home/root/Wifi Mofi.log Unfortunately this file does not exist, so I can't attach it. If I go to Settings - Wifi then I see a list of wireless networks, including my (open) home network. If I click on my home network, it blinks green, but nothing happens. I have a Freerunner with the new om2008.8 on it. Kind regards, Sjors [0] http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Mofi ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
