It is my only phone for almost a year now.
Yes, it needs A LOT of attention and tweaking for about 3 months until
you get it just right for yourself, but after that it's good enough
as a phone and GPS, and a pretty good PDA. And yes, the screen is not
bright enough, and

I second that emotion! :) It is by far the best distro ever tested on my
Neo.
Not only that, but they also got rid of a few nasty bugs: the GPRS link
(now included out-of-the-box) no longer stalls, the USB networking with
Windows boxes is restored, and the messages and dialer apps no
longer
I wanted something simple, reliable, and fast to load and stop.
So I cooked up a couple of shell scripts and desktop shortcuts to
allow me to just press a button and get the Neo to log the GPS track
on a file.
The scripts take care of turning on the GPS receiver, avoiding
suspension during

I felt a little cheated when I saw the FR I had bought was not ready
to be used as a daily phone. This had in fact been the publicity by OM
at the time - GTA01 was for tinkerers, and GTA02 was for the public.
Then people said no, it was clear that GTA02 was also

Obviously, you preferably do it with the filesystem offline...
Hi all.
Now that you mention this, I think the problem is Hardware based.
I've bought an Asus Eee 901 :D, and now I have a means of comparison
in terms of WiFi reception.
My conclusion is that the Neo FR's wifi sucks.
Example1:
- my home AP has WPA; sitting 2 meters away from it, the FR show 50%

It's been a long time since the last real update of packages for the

Everyday I do opkg update and opkg upgrade and all that comes down is

Hi,
is it possible to make the FreeRunner act like a regular media storage
device ?
I'm using the stable OM2008.9, and so I can't even do rmmod
g_ether, because it is built-in. (or maybe it's cdc_ether, but the
problem is the same) .
So there is no chance for me. :(
I guess you have to use a custom kernel, or perhaps an FSO or Testing image...

If you install it via the *.ipk package on the wiki page, you'll get
an init script to launch the daemon. Then copy the latest binary
version over the one installed by the package (it is much older).
From there, all you have to do is to configure the daemon to launch

Hi.
To anyone who actually knows the dark magic of ALSA state files and
the way they are actually being used in the Freerunner, please go read
the wiki page and let me know if it has anything wrong, and if it
should have anything else.
You can use Angus's software to do that. Look for a link in the wiki
page Andreas is talking about.

Hi,
I finally managed to connect my FR via Wifi and WPA2.
The following happened: after I started this thread 2 days ago, my FR (after

I have 2 feature requests, as they seem to have been removed from om's qtopia:

I've followed the discussion about dual booting, kernel packaging, and
kernel vs. distros, and the conclusion I reach is that the devs are
inclined to use (mostly-)monolithic kernels, leaving just the extras
out in the sysfs modules dir.
This is fine by me, but there seems to be a little
I second that idea.
Mainly because it is difficult to understand which context people are
talking in... most people don't remember to say which distro they are
using, and frankly I don't think they should have to...
And it does make a big difference.
Maybe keep this list as a distro-neutral
I agree that a single list is more conducive to synergies.
Unfortunately, the traffic has grown a lot, and it is virtualy impossible to
filter on the client side (except by threading), because you cannot make up any
resilient criteria. You can't build a filter without consistently classifying
