 This said, oFono does have one very compelling feature: on my N900, it

If you think that Nokia's N900 firmware is using oFono, you're
wrong. Or do you mean something else?

However I was told that adding support for AGPS and GTA02 UBX would not
be straingtforward in gpsd.

AGPS is very usefull to save/restore the AGPS data offline in order to
speedup the fix.

All that works on ogps.

[WikiReader] 32GB microSD card works

2012-08-01 Thread Doug Jones

I am testing a 32GB card in my WikiReader.

This is a Class 4 card by SanDisk.  The model number is SDSDQ-032G-AFFP. 
 I paid less than US$20 for it.


It passed the calc.elf test, so I installed all of the English-language 
wikis listed on the update page at 
http://dev.thewikireader.com/language-packs/ (all eight of them).  (BTW: 
 Thanks to whomever just updated that page.  Much easier to find things 
now.  [But the German-language version of Project Gutenberg is still not 
listed].)


I've been using this card for a day or so now, and everything is working 
fine.  Currently reading a book by Garrett Putman Serviss (an amazingly 
prophetic writer, easily the equal of Jules Verne and H. G. Wells.)  I 
discovered him by hitting the Random button repeatedly.


Those eight collections occupy about 1/3 of this card.  Plenty of space 
left for future expansion.


I have also recently tested a 16GB card.  This one is a Class 4 card 
from Kingston, model SDC4/16GB (about $10).  No problems with this card.



I have read somewhere the hypothesis that large-capacity SD cards 
sometimes misbehave because they can draw too much current from the 
power bus in these small devices.  Therefore I do all my WikiReader 
testing with 1.2V rechargeable NiMH batteries instead of the standard 
1.5V alkalines.  While testing the 16GB card, I ran my batteries down 
(this took a long time!) until the total battery voltage was less than 
2.1V;  only then did the WikiReader start to malfunction.  Thank you, 
Openmoko, for this marvelous little piece of engineering.

 Hi,
 QtMoko v46 for GTA04 is out! You can download here[1]. For more info please 
 visit our homepage [2].
 
 There are many changes since v45 so please consider this version a bit 
 experimental. List of changes is here:

..   
   * downgraded to 3.2 kernel

What from? and for what reason?
I'm finding 3.4 quite stable.  3.5 does seem to have some problems.

There should have been some lines before that which are important.
Possibly : omap_dma: You need to stop the DMA channels before unlinking
or   : omap_dma: trying to unlink non linked channels

Also, is this the 3.2 kernel?  I assume so.
