Hello. I haven't been reading openmoko mailing lists for a while for now (about three-four months), and would like to update my knowledge of current things to be. 1) How long FreeRunner currently works as everyday phone? (Please, tell me that it can survive for a day). 2) What distribution is currently developed by Openmoko? Is it FSO? 3) Was echo during calls minimized? (at least to the level where caller wouldn't interrupt himself with echo of his). 4) Is there project that would like me to participate in or bug that I would be able to fix? (I have experience writing in Python/C/C++/Erlang/...etc.. including some linux kernel programming). Do want to do something fun!

Re: Feature overview out of the box SHR unstable distribution
Slow suspend isn't distro issue - it is your bootloader. If you will set loglevel=1 in kernel cmdline, suspend/resume would be much faster. "Overview Log (In, Out, Answered, All)" - it should be red, instead of orange, as it probably won't be implemented in nearly future. "headphones work, microphone does not work" - can you say more about that? Looks like actual SHR-unstable is stable enough to be new testing image, which we want to release in few days ;) After that we will work on opimd integration and few other "cutting-edge" functionalities (so it won't be so stable then!) ;) ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

(and if Adam is root, this is critical) I eliminate warnings and memory leaks. (can be compiled -Wall -Wextra cleanly) I use valgrind to find memory leaks, and it founds something with threading.

Where is urlparse ?
I'm working on porting a python app that uses simplejson and having some module problems. I have Python 2.6 installed on my Linux server and OS X laptop and with both of them the urlparse module comes with the base Python install. It appears to be missing in the opkg python 2.6 package though. Did this get separated out into it's own opkg or stripped out entirely ? It seems kind of odd that it would just be completely removed. It's a pretty important module to have around if you don't want to have to write your own URI/URL decoding library. Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Well, I think that the configuration panel icons can be dragged really quickly. I'm using e17-svn with the default theme and the software-x11-16 engine and the finger scrolling there is very fast and generally smooth. The main issue stays in the desktop, where the icon-dragging is really very slow.

This would be great since we already have all the data in UBX format. 2: Calculating almanac/ephemeris data from the files present in ftp://igs.ensg.ign.fr/pub/igs/products/ should be possible, but is far less straight forward than variant 1. Additionally to studying ICD-GPS-200 (http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/PUBS/gps/icd200/icd200cw1234.pdf) one would need to parse the sp3c format: ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/data/format/sp3c.txt 3: This would be a pretty simple and good way of setting up our own aiding server if 1 doesn't work out. The problem with this approach is that we only get ephemeris for SVs in our view so if I set up one station in Germany it wont help at all in the US. This could be worked around by having many such stations all over the world.

Re: thoughts on A-GPS offline
U-blox receiver allows polling AID-EPH, AID-ALM data. For each type, we can poll 32 messages for 32 satellites. The precondition is: current fix is valid -- at least 3 SVs has valid EPH(or ALM?) data. These data get invalid 2~4 hours later, can be stored into files, and load into GPS receiver when needed and they are valid. I've tried this, not sure whether it works or not, need more tests:) AGPS-online works fine.

Yes and that's what ogpsd does already. It has been saving/restoring almanac for months, ephemeris was disabled up until recently because there was a bug that prevented the GPS chip from doing anything useful after they were restored to the chip. The chip will use all available data to calculate the fix. With restoring ephemeris this means a time to first fix of about 16 seconds at the moment. Not sure how much faster we can get.

From [ http://www.u-blox.cn/customersupport/gps.g5/ublox5_Fw5.00_Release_Notes(GPS.G5-SW-08019).pdf ]: " UBX-AID-EPH and UBX-AID-ALM Messages for Satellite without valid Orbits When polling UBX-AID-EPH or UBX-AID-ALM messages, satellites without valid ephemeris or almanac data will return a complete UBX-AID-EPH or UBX-AID-ALM message with all data words set to zero. This doesn’t comply with the protocol specification. Furthermore, u-blox 5 receivers with firmware V5.00 and earlier can run into a floating-point exception when fed with such “empty” ephemeris.

[SHR-Unstable] Dead gstreamer?
Hey, I'm trying to use Pythm, but the gstreamer backend seems broken. It doesn't play any sound, and judging by CPU usage, it's not even trying. I have no idea where to look to diagnose this... Meanwhile, the mplayer backend works just fine so long as I make sure to set the audio codec to vorbis. Plays at 15-18% CPU, with mono -q4 oggs. -- Thanks, The Digital Pioneer -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.

Re: [SHR-Unstable] Dead gstreamer?
Looks like I neglected to add a dependency to the package. Install gst-plugin-volume. One can get it from SHR or FSO repositories (e.g., [1]). I will add the required dependency to the package tomorrow. Thanks for finding this and let me know if anything else bugs out.
