Preferably, I'd sell it to someone in Western Canada/United States and

 Send me an email if you want to purchase a brand new Freerunner off me.

 Probably a good idea to give a description of what kind of condition
 it's in, plus specify its location (for working out likely postage) and
 whether it's an 850 or 900 model.

 With my current phone, you can make emergency calls on it, even if the
 phone is locked. It happened to me once. I got a call a few minutes
 later from the call center asking if everything was okay. I'd rather
 not repeat that.
 
 Locks that do not allow emergency calls are good. Especially
 considering that you need to take various other steps to place an
 emergency call with the Freerunner (go to an application menu, choose
 an icon, dial).

Everybody has their preferences. I'd really like to see a second small
bootable image for just emergency calls so there would be no wait.
There's no point in forcing that kind of thing down others' throat but
that could be an optional image. If the lock is easy, I have no problem
taking it off and dialing 112 in a hurry. I'm more worried about having
to wait for my small linux computer to fully boot up while someone is
bleeding to death in my arms.

Headphones, Adapters

2008-08-23 Thread Matt

Hi all,

I tried to use headphones with my FR but I only get sound in one ear.
I've tried a phone set with a mic and a normal set with a 3.5 - 2.5 adapter.

If I move the plug I can get sound to one or other ear, so I guess it's 
not a software issue.

Do I need to buy a special adapter ?

Krells!

2008-08-23 Thread Dale Maggee
If you're like me, you're a big fan of gkrellm, and you always have it 
running so you can keep an eye on what your system is doing. I wanted to 
have a remote display of my FR CPU usage on my host, for the same reason 
- to be able to see at a glance what's going on.

Looking at gkrellm's man page, I discovered that it can monitor a remote 
host which is running gkrellmd - the gkrellm daemon.

So I downloaded the source and tried to compile the daemon for the 
freerunner using the toolchain (I haven't got the mokomakefile set up 
yet). I wasn't able to build an ipkg, but I was able to run the 
resulting binary on the freerunner, then connect to it from my host, 
achieving just what I wanted.

screenshot:

http://users.on.net/~antisol/krells.jpg

(the krell on the left is the freerunner, the other one is my host)

the gkrellmd binary:

http://users.on.net/~antisol/gkrellmd.tar.gz

to use it, just untar the binary, scp it to your freerunner, run 
gkrellmd -d on your freerunner, then run gkrellm -s freerunner ip 
on your host. it takes a while (~10 seconds) to connect, so be patient.

Hopefully somebody else will find this usefull! :)

adds this to list of things you can't do with any other phone

Cheers,
-Dale

You need a special adapter, as mentioned on
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Getting_Started_with_your_Neo_FreeRunner#Buttons_and_connectors
|The phone jack is a 2.5mm connector with four contacts: stereo +

|
|To plug regular (i.e. without microphone) headphones commonly used

you will need a rather full blown linux image in any case. for making a

 if you study some mobiles, they are able to make emergency calls without

 I have talked about boot options. At this time there is no locking
 screen. Simply there should be a button to bypass the normal boot by
 pressing and go into an emergency mode.
 
 This way only 8 seconds may be remaining until a emergency call would be
 possible. Not 2 minutes.
 
 The unlock screen may have a top left area and a top right area. Right
 would be normal unlock and left maybe emergency call.
 
 You must have a lock, since otherwise you may accidantly issue an
 emergency call.


the point i was making is that when people are in stressful situations 
they panic; even something as simple as selecting a different option at 
boot-time becomes difficult.

the point about the screen lock was an example to illustrate my main

I think, too, it should be possible to create a mini OS only for
emergency calls. The number to be called could be passed as a poot
parameter, thus the boot configuration may be modified by a setup
application.

A mini OS: Maybe any open OS that is fast booting (freeDOS ???)
Configuring in a DOS partition would also be possible from Linux I
think.

Is this possible ?

You know what's weird?  Before applying the updates from Zecke's testing
branch today, neither of the openmoko or qtopia mediaplayers were working
for me.  OM was either throwing up gstreamer errors or did not seem to do
anything, and the qtopia one didn't play anything and didn't even quit.

After the updates and installing mplayer, both are working.  The QMP takes a
while after starting and some cyclic pressing of  - || -  buttons for an
mp3 file to play.  You could try to reinstall the gstreamer plugins.

I still wonder what has happened to openmoko-mediaplayer2's volume button.
And why the FR doesn't have the most basic buttons: call pickup, call
reject, and volume control.

 Hi  All,

 I have a collegue I work with who is usually the first to get new cool tech

 After hesitating for some days after getting the freerunner I would show it
 to him today.

 He was stunned! He said it feels really good in the hand. Actually thats
 the kind of feedback most people I know told me immidiately after handing it
 to them. Also the rubber like finish, he thinks is much better then the
 finish on the iphone.

 Sure enough he was blown away by the detail the display shows and really
 really impressed by the fact that this is all result of an open source
 project.

 The boots, well he liked them since he knows... And his comment about the
 linux kernel messages: Ah the same with a cracked iphone (I never cared to
 look into iphones that deep).

 So I think this was really cool since I did not demo much more just boot
 and tangogps and illume.

 So let's all get our hands dirty and make the software stack rock solid to
 make the neo's rock and roll!

 Openmoko Team keep up the good work!

Re: Several questions about ASU

2008-08-23 Thread Nishit Dave
OK, after rebooting the FR, TangoGPS and GPSDrive are working, so
GPS_DEV=/dev/ttySAC1 is correct.

However, now TangoGPS crashes within a couple of minutes - I guess trying to
fix orientation, because I was turning around trying to see if it worked,
and started to freeze, and then fail.

AGPS UI was able to find a fix within mere seconds, or probably no more than
1 minute!

 I have a curious problem with my FR on 2008.08: My GPS works with AGPS UI,
 but TangoGPS and GPSDrive can't find the GPS device.

 I checked /etc/default/gpsd and it read GPS_DEV=/dev/ttyS3

 I changed that to read GPS_DEV=/dev/ttySAC1 as recommended by

 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Getting_Started_with_your_Neo_FreeRunner#Use_the_GPS

 When I was on 2007.02, GPS worked with TangoGPS, but now I can't seem to
 get it done even after doing as stated above.  The default Map application
 with the stock 2008.08 image worked when I checked it earlier, but I don't
 use the FR as a phone yet, so am not sure if it is still the case.

 Anybody has some pointers?

Am 23.08.2008 um 11:15 schrieb robin paulson:


I have talked about boot options. At this time there is no locking
screen. Simply there should be a button to bypass the normal boot by
pressing and go into an emergency mode.

This way only 8 seconds may be remaining until a emergency call  
would be

possible. Not 2 minutes.

The unlock screen may have a top left area and a top right area.  
Right

would be normal unlock and left maybe emergency call.

You must have a lock, since otherwise you may accidantly issue an
emergency call.



the point i was making is that when people are in stressful situations
they panic; even something as simple as selecting a different option  
at

boot-time becomes difficult.

the point about the screen lock was an example to illustrate my main
point. there are many more i could have chosen, but picked one related
to mobile phones



The boot menu should in this case be ONLY an emergency button. Shown for
about 3 seconds or the like, it could be pressed to bypass the normal  
boot sequence.


If the button is not pressed the normal boot will occur.

The uboot menu should not be used, because you have to press also the  
AUX button.

This is unusual for the normal user thus they forgot about it.

I have just pressed at the aux button from screen locked state. Is  
there a way to replace
the usual 'buttons' by one 'Take Emergency call' or better an icon for  
it.


The small dismiss button should stay at the mottom to go back into  
screen lock.


This could then well documented.

Also the power button could be used in paralell for the same issue.  
There is only a need to

detect, that the phone was in screen lock mode.

No, You can't generalize like that. I'm a paramedic, I know when things
are bad enough I should make the call and I don't have second doubts
about it. When the situation arises and my Freerunner is for some
reason turned off, it's not the panic element that stands before me and
a connection to the EMT dispatcher but the time that I need to make my
phone usable for said call. The choice should be there for those that
have a use for those 20 extra seconds when it's needed. It could be an
add-on and not included in the main distros, I don't care. I'm just
saying that there are people who know, how to make best use out of this
kind of solution.

I see it as an installable ipk package containing a kernel image as well
as a (modified) gsm daemon + everything else essential to the call
that would probably go on a separate partition. There would be
instructions to make to the boot manager and we'd have exactly what we
need.

 didn't help at all.

 Did you find a solution for the problem that the neo doesn't output any
 sound?

 Maybe i'm missing some essential sound module or what ever. It makes me
 sad that i can't hear anything from my lovely neo. :)

Hello,

It time is very critical, it seems better to let the phone continuously on.

Otherwise is this scenario acceptable (automatic call after 3 minutes):
the phone is off, the user still holds the power on button while the 
kernel is starting (say during 5 seconds or more), when the OS is 
operationnal, an automatic message is sent (with info on the user, 
possibly gps coordinates, etc...).

This is problematic, if the power button is pressed while the phone is in the

Maybe it would be possible to boot the kernel, gsm and X, then display a 
button for emergency calls while the rest (bluetooth, wifi and user interface 
stuff) is starting up. If the user presses the emergency call button the 
bootprocess stops/pauses and a menu like this shows up:

Problem in building image using MokoMakefile

Hello everyone,

Previously I was using toolchain to compile the programs, but now i need the
openmoko setup and bitbake in my PC. I used the Mokomakefile to build the
devel image and followed the instructions  in the wiki. But the following
command fails with the error:

***
make openmoko-devel-image

( cd build  . ../setup-env  \
  ( bitbake openmoko-devel-image u-boot-openmoko ) )
ERROR:  Openembedded's config sanity checker detected a potential
misconfiguration.
Either fix the cause of this error or at your own risk disable the
checker (see sanity.conf).
Following is the list of potential problems / advisories:

/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr is not 0. This will cause problems with
qemu so please fix the value (as root).

make: *** [openmoko-devel-image] Error 1

Can anyone suggest me the way for fixing this .

 Launching it from the filemanager I get an error saying Can't open

Hmm, can you do a gpspipe -r from the command line and see what happens? You 
may need to install

I'll add some logging so we can see what is going on. By default it connects to 
gpsd at localhost, 
any parameters passed in will be taken as a different host to connect to.

You could also try running it from the terminal and see if anything more useful 
is printed out.

Thanks for trying it.

Problems with Debian/FSO

2008-08-23 Thread yochaigal

First let me say how impressed I am with the script produced by the debian
arm team, really great stuff.
I've got it running on a 2gb sd card, boots into xfce with no problems
(simply followed these instructions:
http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td735065).

A few issues, though:

DHCPDISCOVER runs at every boot, then times out.  How do I disable this?  I
have no problems manually configuring my wifi with iwconfig but I can't seem
to get THAT to work without having it time out.

xfce-panel doesn't always startup.  I have to enter terminal and run nohup
xfce-panel  to get it to work properly.  I also can't right-click--thus I
can't change the panel settings.

zhone works, can make calls, etc but CANNOT receive calls.  Why is this?

Re: 2007.2 media player

2008-08-23 Thread Russell Sears
The media player doesn't really understand file formats.  Instead, 
gstreamer handles the actual playback, so you'll probably need to 
install one of the gst-plugin-* packages.

What error message does it give on the command line?  Does the log 
conclude a plausible looking mime type?

 xfce-panel doesn't always startup.  I have to enter terminal and run nohup

This is simple, you can:

A) Configure /usr/bin/zhone-session:
(here is mine)
#!/bin/sh

#zhone 
exec startxfce4 
matchbox-keyboard-toggle 
exec matchbox-window-manager -use_titlebar yes


b) Add it to XFCE - Setting - Autostart application



  I also can't right-click--thus I
 can't change the panel settings.
 

You have to install the Sebastion Ohl's patch:

(http://www.ohli.de/download/xserver-xorg-input-tslib_0.0.4-5+fso2_armel.deb)

Attention you need to replace your calibration because for now, if you
use this patch you will have a wrong calibration (don't ask me why)

Take it http://pkg-fso.alioth.debian.org/freerunner/pointercal
and put to /etc/pointercal


 zhone works, can make calls, etc but CANNOT receive calls.  Why is this?  
 
This depends by the sim, I think, I hope it arrive as soon an update!

Raster's keyboard disappear after installation of some packages

2008-08-23 Thread yves mahe
Hi,

I use the raster's image (15/08/08) and after installing some packages, 
the great keyboard from Rasterman is replaced by the boring keyboard 
from 2008.8.

How can I restore the raster's keyboard ?

Thanks

Yves Mahe

Hi,

 zhone works, can make calls, etc but CANNOT receive calls.  Why is this?  

Please log in via ssh, run /etc/init.d/fso-frameworkd stop, stop zhone,
start frameworkd in the console and watch it’s output, start zhone on
another terminal, then try to receive a call and watch for output.

If you get assertions about unknown number types, tell us about the type
you have found and then to apt-get update  apt-get upgrade

/me should write down these debugging informations in the Wiki, I guess.

 Looking at gkrellm's man page, I discovered that it can monitor a remote

You can do the a similar thing with ksysguard.

I have debian running on my freerunner, so it was simple to install it, and 
monitor my freerunner's process table, cpu and memory consumption remotely

You need to install ksysguardd which is the demon that ksysguard connects to.

I also found that I could not directly connect to the demon, instead I needed 
to use an SSH tunnel. To do that, I added my ssh key as authorised 
in /root/.ssh, and started an ssh agent on my desktop PC, with my key loaded.

Yes, that was a concern of mine at first as well, but I decided to pursue
it at least for my own use.  And then when I went to retrieve the

those unaware, DJBernstein's software was always available under a
'non-license' that permitted source-code redistribution only, but on
28Dec07 he placed djbdns and daemontools, and other packages on other days,
into the public domain, so that distribution of a modified binary is now
permissible)

 Hello,
 I intend to buy a FreeRunner.  This will be my first time owning a
 cell phone, though.
 My service plan is offered through my university by Cincinnati Bell

 SIM card from the free phone and placing it in the FreeRunner will
 work?  (IE, allow calls and SMS.  I'd do any data over wifi.)

Probably.

A quick google search shows that Cincinnati Bell Wireless operate a GSM 
network, which is compatible with the freerunner. You should get a 850MHz 
model.

It is possible that your network may use nasty tricks to prevent you from 
using the SIM card from the free phone in your freerunner. It is possible to 
lock SIM cards to a particular handset for example, however this is fairly 
unlikey.

The LED¹s will flicker for a split second when I connect / disconnect it,

 to use it, just untar the binary, scp it to your freerunner, run

 Hopefully somebody else will find this usefull! :)

do batteries have serial numbers? is this something readable via the

new serial number - battery meter in phone starts new calculations as

   Every time I even look to buy it I see the sold out.
 
 i believe the strategy is to order from a local distributor
 
 eg Koolu for north america
 
 
 The problem with ordering from Koolu is that there may be taxes or duty 
 at the border that you wouldn't know about until the order is placed. I 
 want to order mine but I'm afraid they'd charge a premium at the border 
 to let it through.

Did you check the distributor section of our website? I think Koolu has 
a USA address as well now.

USB Host Dead??

2008-08-23 Thread Seattle Web Creations, LLC
  This may be an obvious question, but have you tried with a different
USB cable? With any luck it's just your usb cable that's on the fritz ;).

Cheers,
Mike.

Yep, I tried everything, including changing the OTG adapter ­ same results.
It seem like this controller is fried or something - I don¹t know for sure,
but would be very interested to hear if others have had this issue, as well
as input from someone at Openmoko.

Their sales team stated it was still shipping from Canada when I wrote them
recently. After the reply from Charles though I am just going to place my
order Friday as I had originally planned to and not worry about it.
