 For anyone wondering how to use D-Bus to set the volume to 68%, you
 can do it by cutting and pasting this line:

   mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.ogsmd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device

Are you sure that mdbus call is correct I got two different error messages

Re: [TangoGPS] POI coordinates as WGS84 deg and min

Re: Hello world. Is the Neo Freerunner dead?

2009-07-09 Thread Ian Munsie
 I've been drooling over the Freerunner for years now, specifically to have
 the capability to plug a REAL keyboard to it and SSH into my network.
snip
  else
      do I have an alternative
  fi
snip
 I can tinker freely and willingly with the phone, but I need to
 place/receive calls ans SSH into my network.

So you want [to at least consider holding off until more information
regarding] the upcoming Nokia N900 Rover Internet Tablet based on
Linux [is released, including an official statement from Nokia that
the tablet has all the software stacks in place to support voice via
the 3G modem and not just data], which supports both wired (using an
appropriate cable and switching the USB port to host mode via software
readily available from the maemo extras repository which adds a nice
extra friendly icon in the control panel) and bluetooth (which I
recommend) keyboards. OpenSSH (or Dropbear if you are so inclined) can
easily be installed from the maemo extras repository to facilitate all
your logging into and out of needs.


 The Developers only ubiquitous tag seems to suggest that it may not just 
 work.

That is correct. Just how much work you need to apply to make it just
work depends on (off the top of my head):
a) Your definition of work
b) Your expectations
c) Your experience with Linux
d) Your free time
e) Your cranium bashing index
f) Which distro you picked
g) How much documentation you are willing, and have the time, to read.
h) Your experience with Linux
i) The size of your fingers (smaller and nimbler is better)
j) Your tolerance for small on screen keyboards (what do you think you
will have to do to get that nice large keyboard to work? Compare that
to the nice finger friendly GUI in the Internet Tablets)
k) Your tolerance for small on screen keyboards (what do you do when
you need to reply to an SMS and don't have your full size keyboard
with you, or time to set it up?)
l) How much time you are willing to spend flashing it (openmoko:
depending on size of image, up to tens of minutes. Internet tablet:
seconds. literally. no exaggeration. I was surprised myself when I
first upgraded the OS on my N800).
m) Your expectations
n) Your definition of work

I believe I saw a figure mentioned in a recent thread of about three
months to get the Freerunner to a state where it would operate how
that particular person could use it as their daily phone. I wouldn't
be surprised if that was exaggerated, then again, from my own
experiences I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't.

Personally I have my phone in a state where it is usable as a daily
phone and have been unwilling to change it since then. I prefer the
annoying bugs I know to the bugs I don't since it is now my main phone
and I can't really afford to risk breaking it yet again.



Don't let me put you off the Freerunner any more than I already have -
as evidenced by this mailing list there are clearly plenty of people
who swear by and love the phone to death, but there are many people
who have been sorely disappointed by the Freerunner and I don't want
you only getting one side of the story and ending up disappointed
yourself.



Eagerly awaiting the launch of the N900 so I can ditch this Freerunner,
-Ian

OR

Logging off for a few days to avoid the inevitable flamewar I just sparked,

 Hi list,
 
 I created a new topic cause I think this question is slightly
 different from the one being discussed in the Rustling noise on
 phonecalls thread. Well I just installed OM2009 (and updated via opkg
 update  opkg upgrade) and then tested on paroli on a call. Weird
 thing happened. The background sounds (like of the traffic, keyboard
 strokes or somebody else far off talking) are highly amplified. But my
 own voice is highly marred with noise. My voice sounds like it's being
 mixed by a dj to produce a kind of recursive-echo effect!

 Any ideas?

Too much microphone gain explains all of this.

That's why background noise gets amplified too much.
Your voice may get too loud and ruined by saturation. If your voice
comes back through the loudspeaker (or a nearby test-phone's 
loudspeaker) then the overly sensitive mic pics it up again and you get 
echoes too.

Isn't it better to have a consistent (maximum) +CLVL setting and tweak
individually your alsa-mixer settings to get optimal result? I think
it's pretty much confirmed that +CLVL=255 doesn't cause any
distortion. It's wolfson output that can drive the earpiece too strong

please try to lower wolfson's output volume instead of tweaking

 Hello Mickael.
 I don't want to by one but Paul Fertser fercerpav(at)gmail.com is 
 looking for neo1973.
 He wants to improve power consumption issues for all Neo1973 owners.
 Maybe you can donate/offer some cheap price for one of the Neos

 I have another one but not in perfect condition. In a few weeks
 maybe I think I'll propose it to Paul for a good price :)

I'm going to disassemble the device and to even desolder some parts to
measure current consumption of various components, so condition doesn't
matter much to me :)

Thanks in advance!

  Install the equivalent library if you're using a distribution that has a

 First of all I have to say that fso-framework is excellent, because we do

 As of GPS related APIs in ogpsd, UBX binary protocol is used to issue
 control commands (such as initialize GPS receiver, upload/download AID
 messages), and NMEA protocol is used to accept messages passively.

On GTA02 ogpsd uses UBX only (no NMEA) so the only overhead compared to
omgps would be that the parsing is implemented in python.

Do you think that your UBX parser code is ready to replace the python

Re: [TangoGPS] POI coordinates as WGS84 deg and min

2009-07-09 Thread Marcel
I tried in the add POI window with this coordinate:
N 55° 33.144 E 8° 6.278
with or without the degree character (which hasn't made it into illume's 
default keyboard, used ssh -X to test that).
The SQL command executed by tGPS looks like this:

SQL: INSERT INTO poi (idmd5, lat, lon, visibility, cat, subcat, keywords, 
desc, price_range, extended_open) VALUES 
('833501616702973561',0.00,0.00,1,1,0,'Leuchtturm 1','',3,0)
   

So the lat/lon values silently fall to zero, I guess because of the 
characters instead of ciphers in the text input field.

In fact, since omnewrotate seems to be in the repos already, I didn't

Re: [omgps] collect feature requests

 On GTA02 ogpsd uses UBX only (no NMEA) so the only overhead compared to
 omgps would be that the parsing is implemented in python.

I'm sorry that I said ogpsd uses NMEA :(

omgps talks with ogpsd (gypsy service) through dbus APIs, so another
overhead is delivering of dbus signals.
As of my test, the approximate overhead is over 5% (CPU usage).

 Do you think that your UBX parser code is ready to replace the python
 parser? If yes, then there wouldn't be any problems anymore with using
 ogpsd (currently performace/battery usage).

No. The Gypsy service good for most users who want to get just data such as
lat/lon.
Fso-framework manages GPS device, it is not easy to write another working
parser (data provider). UBX binary is preferred by omgps because I want full
control.

RE: replacement opkg.org (was Re: Opkg.org?! (was: Re: [SHR-...))

2009-07-09 Thread Staley, Daniel L
Just to throw in my two centsI think the look and feel of opkg.org is 
great.  I think whoever designed the page did a very nice job.

However, I will agree that we need something to tell what Distro they have been 
tested on, and perhaps even a separate packagelist / repo created for each 
distro based on what distros they are said to work on.

Perhaps the owner of opkg.org would let someone else log onto the server and 
make these changes?
It would really be a shame to just create a replacement of itlike I said, 
the site layout is really pretty nice.

 freerunner [a] to nokia [b]

I hope you know about the pretty diagram with alsa control names [1]
(yes, it's for gta02). I suggest you look at it once more and tweak
appropriate settings with alsamixer during the call.

 [b] signal is super loud, which is odd because i would think it would
 be very quiet.

That's the difference you see between extra-cap units and
not. Supposedly you have a capless unit and is using too much
amplification for the earpiece in the codec. (FYI nobody knows for
sure and there's no way to know which units have those stupid caps and
which do not. Looks like all A7 units have them, as probably most of A5;
my A6 doesn't)

 and it sounds as if the freerunner is recording in a
 pvc pipe.

Please pay attention that you have 2 (almost) independent problems to
solve:
1. Hearing the other side
2. Providing the other side a good signal from the mic

I suggest you do it one by one.

 and the  Echo Suppression and Noise Reduction from
 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Hardware:AT_Commands

These commands have an immediate effect, you can use them in
mickeyterm while a call is ongoing to change the behaviour. In my
experience what they do is cut the signal altogether if the level is
too low (that is, to not amplificate ambient noise/street
sounds/whatever) and normalize sounds of normal level. So basically
you need to tweak the recording level so that noise is still
considered noise and cut and your voice is considered a useful signal
and normalized. And yes, %0187 makes voice sound a little bit harsh,
that's a price for the echo suppression. Also the louder your
earpiece, the more echo suppression is needed. If you feel creative,
you can try to make some rubber isolation between the case parts
because echo occures because of the acoustic feedback via the
case. Removing the screwes also reduces echo.

CLVL affects only loudness of the signal output from calypso to the
codec input.

I have no idea what the pending_return [...] is deprecated error

Service name not found means that you're not running frameworkd, I
think.  I actually received the same error the first time I tried it
on SHR-unstable as well.  I fixed it by restarting frameworkd:

/etc/init.d/frameworkd restart

Oddly, the next time I rebooted into SHR-unstable, frameworkd started
correctly on its own.

By the way, running mdbus -s, with no other options, lists what
services are on the D-Bus.  You can grep for freesmartphone to see
if the services provided by frameworkd are there.

QSuunto-Lite

2009-07-09 Thread Russell Dwiggins
Thanks for this!

Questions:
* What are the features you're currently working on?
* This requires that the FR is in host mode to download from the dive
computer, correct?
* As asked earlier, any chance of porting to elementary rather than QT?

Now I can't wait to get my phone back from buzz fix!

QSuunto-Lite

2009-07-09 Thread Christian Rüb
Hi,

glad someone is interested in this one as I want to (re)concentrate on it again.

You can use divetools-ab to download via USB serial (see my little patch here 
[1]) - the package is already capable of using /dev/ttyUSB0
You need to switch to host mode and have a special adapter for your regular USB 
plug to fit into the mini USB (~ €1.5 on ebay).
Or you download them on your PC with divetools-ab and upload just the file. 
QSuunto-Lite can only _display_ information from file _not_ download itself.
These features are planned for the next dive program which will also not be 
Suunto specific and hopefully get GPS integration and stuff - but this is still 
a long way...

Next (and probably last) feature for QSuunto-Lite will be to display the dive 
profile graphically.

I am not planning to do it in elmentary as it was my first real program in C++ 
and QT and thus also meant to learn it. But for the next program maybe it will 
be possible to seperate GUI and logic enough, so there could be a QT (e.g. for 
Desktop PCs) and an elementary GUI. My primary target is the above mentioned 
feature for QSuunto-Lite and then getting the new dive logging application on 
the way.

Concering QSuunto-Lite - make sure you have one of the older Suuntos that are 
compatible with divetools-ab [2]. Newer Suuntos are also planned to be 
supported in the new app.

[1] 
http://git.senfdax.de/?p=oe_recipes;a=blob;f=divetools-ab/files/001_usbserial.patch
[2] a) http://www.acs.uni-duesseldorf.de/~becka/dive/divetools/index.html
  b)  http://www.sarnau.info/papers:suunto_protocol see Vyper, Spyder, etc.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
 Christian

 Thanks for this!

 I have no idea what the pending_return [...] is deprecated error

 Service name not found means that you're not running frameworkd, I
 think.  I actually received the same error the first time I tried it
 on SHR-unstable as well.  I fixed it by restarting frameworkd:

 /etc/init.d/frameworkd restart

 Oddly, the next time I rebooted into SHR-unstable, frameworkd started
 correctly on its own.

 By the way, running mdbus -s, with no other options, lists what
 services are on the D-Bus.  You can grep for freesmartphone to see
 if the services provided by frameworkd are there.

After manually restarting frameworkd and running mdbus -s | grep 
freesmartphone this is what I get

[SHR] nEo theme need help packaging (was: Re: [Shr-User] New _FAST_ theme)

2009-07-09 Thread Bernd Prünster
sorry for crossposting, won'T happen again, but i am looking for help...

i fixed a couple of tiny things (for exaple i added elmdentica icon to 
the icon theme and radio buttons shluold now be displayed properly) and 
i want to build an ipk.
my problem: i am not good in writing shellscripts, so i will explain my 
concern:

packaging in general is not aproblem.

packaging illume theme is no problem at all..

the trouble begins with the ELEMENTARY THEME:

[*]i want to display a warning message (befor the installation process) 
that the user should remove the neo theme before installing any other 
elemetary themes (are there any apart from sixteen?) so that the user 
can press ctrl+c if he doesnt want to install it, because if the proper 
scripts are missing something might go wrong [that should not be that 
big of a problem for me, but just in case i'd like to have it done by 
someone else].

[*] i want to automatically enable the neo elementary theme after 
installing, but i also want to check if another non-default elementary 
theme is in use to keep /etc/profile clean [i have an idea how to do it, 
but it could also blow /etc/profile if i do it myself]

[*] i want to automatically enable x11-16 engine for elementary, but 
check if it has already be done by the user (again to keep /etc/profile 
neat and tidy) [again i dont want to do it myself for the sake of 
/etc/profile]

the troubles continue with the SHR APPS edje data collections:

[*] i want to backup every .edj file in 
/usr/share/libframeworkg-phonegui-efl before the neo theme's edj files 
are placed there so i dont overwrite the default files.. [my idea would 
be to append .back te every edj file in this directory... theoretically 
i know how to do it, but i want to be absolutely sure that my them 
package doesnt overwrite any default files so that the user can switch 
back to the default look if he removes the neo theme]

the troubles go on with the ETK THEME

[*]i want to display a warning message (befor the installation process) 
that the user should remove the neo theme before installing any other 
etk themes (are there any ?) so that the user can press ctrl+c if he 
doesnt want to install it, because if the proper scripts are missing 
something might go wrong [that should not be that big of a problem for 
me, but just in case i'd like to have it done by someone else

[*] i want to kackup /usr/share/etk/themes/default.edj so i dont 
overwrite any defaul files [same problem i have with elementary]


final problem:

[*] when the user removes the neo theme i want to revert all these steps 
mentioned above.


so basically i want opkg to do everything mentioned on my blog in the 
installation instructions [1] (guys who installed the theme already know 
them)

the download link for the theme packages (icon theme and e+elm+etk+shr 
apps) stayed the same.

thx in advance (i hope someone can do me that favor...)

O Xoves, 9 de Xullo de 2009, The Digital Pioneer escribiu:
  Can someone confirm whether the SHR version uses tremor too?

 Confirm: it works, but only when you explicitly specify ac=vorbis. This can
 be done either on the command line (add -ac=vorbis flag) or in the config
 file (echo ac=vorbis  ~/.mplayer/config). When I did this, OGG decoding
 dropped to about 30-50% CPU usage, as opposed to 70-100%. For some reason,
 I still have to renice mplayer to -19 or it keeps cutting and skipping,
 even when the phone is otherwise idle. :( I've tried increasing the cache
 too, but no go.

Have you tried the -low- one?

It's supposed to use less CPU...

Zaurus.

2009-07-09 Thread jeremy jozwik
 That is correct. Just how much work you need to apply to make it just
 work depends on (off the top of my head):
 a) Your definition of work
 b) Your expectations
 c) Your experience with Linux
 d) Your free time
 e) Your cranium bashing index
 f) Which distro you picked
 g) How much documentation you are willing, and have the time, to read.
 h) Your experience with Linux
 i) The size of your fingers (smaller and nimbler is better)
 j) Your tolerance for small on screen keyboards (what do you think you
 will have to do to get that nice large keyboard to work? Compare that
 to the nice finger friendly GUI in the Internet Tablets)
 k) Your tolerance for small on screen keyboards (what do you do when
 you need to reply to an SMS and don't have your full size keyboard
 with you, or time to set it up?)
 l) How much time you are willing to spend flashing it (openmoko:
 depending on size of image, up to tens of minutes. Internet tablet:
 seconds. literally. no exaggeration. I was surprised myself when I
 first upgraded the OS on my N800).
 m) Your expectations
 n) Your definition of work

 Have you tried the -low- one?

 It's supposed to use less CPU...


Yeah, that's the one I installed to get everything working again.
(-tremor-low)

Is the 850-MHz FreeRunner discontinued? (was: FreeRunner A7, GSM 850?)

  Has the GSM-900 version been determine to work just as well in
  North America?
 
 Well, my international version works fine in North America.  I
 actually asked T-mobile (my carrier) and they said that they don't use
 850MHz in their network.  They said they *might* have roaming partners
 who use 850, but even that is unlikely.

Ah--nice. I haven't spoken to anyone at ATT about this, but the
coverage-maps at gsmworld.com seem to indicate that missing the
850-MHz band wouldn't be a problem on their networks, either (the `GSM
850' and `GSM 1900' shaded maps look identical...).

So, can anyone officially confirm if the 850-MHz version is
discontinued? If this is the case, I'd like to update the wiki (which
still says GTA02 has 2 versions, 850/1800/1900 Mhz and 900/1800/1900
Mhz version).

GOT MY PHONE!!! :) Doesn't work... :(

2009-07-09 Thread lists
My new phone doesn't see my ATT SIM card...
The card is OLD.
As in 5 years OLD (or more).
So old, that it broke the Treo when I pulled it out... (screw the Treo) 

I've done some reading about the SIM stuff.
I'm dizzy already, I don't understand none of that stuff... 

Can anybody give a quick and dirty answer about what to do next?
Thanks!

depending on how money-grabbing your provider is, you may or may not
be able to get a new sim for free (mine was $30)

failing that, have you got the newest gsm firmware? that fixes several
gsm-related bugs. there's a page on the wiki with simple instructions
on how to fix it - thsi is to be recommended regardless of a new sim
or not

which distro are you using? the newer distros based upon fso might be
more helpful - have you tried om2009/shr yet?

The Sdg guy asked me what system I wanted and I told him to install the most

It has some sort QT stuff running.

 OK, this is part of the problem (I think)
 My sim card is:
 63513    G       3001    64k smartchip   does not respond to at+cimi

 Which is listed as:
 SIM cards that don't work with original gsm firmware

 Now, I read it somewhere, but how do I open an SSH session into this thing
 so I can follow those steps?

read the page on usb networking:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking

 How do I get a keyboard on the screen?

depends on the os... can't help until you tell us what it is. there
are various qt systems

You might want to ask questions like this on the openmoko IRC channel.
There's nothing wrong with sending them to this list, but if you're having
problems just getting started, I'll bet you'll find getting help on
the IRC channel to be more efficient.

Glad you got your phone!

I'll make a couple of assumptions:
1)You're in the US
2)The OS SDG loaded is QTopia or it's ilk.

If assumption 1 is correct; Go to your local ATT store, show them your SIM
card (I'll bet it's corroded if it broke the Treo on the way out), tell them
to give you a replacement, put the replacement in your Freerunner, smile :).

If the ATT geeks tell you you need to upgrade, buy, or in any other way pay
for a new SIM, look at them like they just lied to you, and repeat your
request.  If that fails, go to another store, or ask for a manager. They can
replace your SIM free of charge.
