Re: battery life with QtMoko
So this is how you suspend the phone, with manual lock :) I was thinking you use power button to suspend it. I don't want to lose 2 hours of suspend just because I talk 10 minutes with the screen on. Other applications, like chess and fbreader can block (?) screen dimming. As for autounlocking when receiving a call/sms, I think is a bad ideea, but I don't know what can be done without coding.

If you lock the screen it should always suspend after 20s. I am using QtMoko with default values and i has worked quite nice so far and on the other hand i am not bothered with screen dimming e.g. when reading or playing chess. It's quite hard/impossible to set defaults so that everyone is happy. But any suggestions are welcome.

Unfortunately I no longer have the details to refer to. But as far as I recall, it was something like... - Install oFono. It was 0.36 at the time, and it looks like that's still the latest in Debian, even though I believe upstream has had several releases since that. - Start ofonod, then play with test scripts like `list-modems' and `enable-modem'. - Discover that nothing happens because calypso hasn't been detected. I wrote a patch to fix that, and sent it to the oFono guys. AFAIK that is in the upstream code now, so a more recent oFono release should detect calypso out of the box. - `list-modems' and `enable-modem' now work. - Install telepathy-ring and empathy, and see what happens - and I wrote about that earlier (but a long time ago) in this same thread. Does that help? Please feel free to ask more detailed questions, and I'll do my best!

I don't know picocom but Linux normally uses \n while windows uses \r\n. So if qi only use \n it is corrrect for linux.

Re: battery life with QtMoko
I've started to keep NeoControl running all the time. With my deepsleep/fixed phone, on resume I see the current between 12000-24000 (2.6.34/qtmoko). With my old battery showing 857000 for current full, I guess it could sleep between 35 and 72 hours. The problem is that when active, the current is between 25-35, about 2.5-3.5 hours. If I keep the screen on (talking or not) for 20-30 minutes, which is not uncommon, I have no chance to use the phone the next day without charging it. This is with default settings, which are very dangerous: in power management, when not plugged, the policy for 'dim light' is off, for 'display off' is off and for 'suspend' is off. This means that any unnoticed sms or missed call will keep the screen on. I can change these settings, but it bothers me that any event will unlock the screen, the neo can make phone calls in my pocket or the touchscreen will stay active while walking with no chance to autosuspend.

qi: use "\r\n" in serial console?
Hi, if I use "picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0" to see the boot messages of Qi and kernel I see that the Qi lines are terminated with "\n" while Linux uses "\r\n" [1]. Are you using something else than picocom or avoiding the problem in some other way? If not, should it be fairly safe to add diff --git a/src/cpu/s3c2442/gta02.c b/src/cpu/s3c2442/gta02.c index 13be2ac..6dc1208 100644 --- a/src/cpu/s3c2442/gta02.c +++ b/src/cpu/s3c2442/gta02.c @@ -458,6 +458,8 @@ const struct board_variant const * get_board_variant_gta02(void) static __attribute__ (( section (".steppingstone") )) void putc_gta02(char c) { + if (c == '\n') + serial_putc_s3c24xx(GTA02_DEBUG_UART, '\r'); serial_putc_s3c24xx(GTA02_DEBUG_UART, c); } or is there some trouble to be expected? best regards, Timo Lindfors [1] Example output: Qi Bootloader s3c2442 wallwart debian_20100105-1~unrelease0 2011-06-06T08:29:17+ Copyright (C) 2008 Openmoko, Inc.
