Re: using openocd

2008-09-12 Thread Lynn Nguyen
Does the cable fit completely into your neo? Because my cable doesn't go
straight in. Is there a technique to make it fit? Did you have any problems
making it fit? Because I think my problem is that my cable doesn't go all
the way in.

 Hi!

 I go the debug board working the first time just a minute ago, but I had
 the same errors.
 Make sure, you have the flat flexible cable between debug board and
 freerunner completely plugged into
 the small connector on the freerunner.
 This solved my problems ;-)

192.168.62.1 (my router's address) to get it to work.

 * Some crash on the mac if you boot/shutdown with the usb plugged

Also, lots of crashes if you do opkg upgrade (at least, I've had lots

Thanks a lot !
I tried, it works perfectly, except 2 thing (but I don't know if it's

on calendar icon do nothing.

I don't knwo if it's due to FSO 3 or if it's related to your package,
anyway thanks a lot for this release



Joachim Breitner a écrit :
 Hi,
 
 tonight we have packaged the new versions of zhone and frameworkd and
 adjusted the (slightly improved) installer script to install the FSO
 milestone3 kernel.
 
 So if you are running Debian already, you get the new stuff by running
 apt-get update; apt-get -u upgrade
 
 If you are not yet running Debian, you can follow the instructions on
 http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner
 
 That said, I didn’t very thoroughly test the new versions, so it might
 be that you stumble upon stupid mistakes from me. Please let us know (at
 the smartphone-userland[1] mailing list, where most Debian related
 discussion take place) if you find any.
 
 Besides these new versions you might be interested to hear that remoko
 and pypennotes have been packaged for Debian, and fso-gpsd makes sure
 all gpsd-using applications (such as tangogps) work also. We still don’t
 have Illume, as we are still waiting for new Enlightenment libs being
 released and packaged for Debian.

Qtopia-core look consistency

2008-09-12 Thread Nicola Mfb
My applications has different looks on pc/qt4, on qvfb/i686fb, and on the
Freerunner with official qtopia.
The last has a lot of problems on a QGraphicsScene/QGraphicsView, broken
painterpaths, no rounded edges, no antialiasing, weird fonts, bad collision
detection and so on.
I'd like to know the exact src tarball used to build qtopia for the
Freerunner and the configure command line, hoping that using it to build my
SDK will give me the same results. Actually, infact, i'm trying to debug on
the device directly (as only there i have problems!), but it's a real pain!
I was not able to have a qemu-1973 with qtopia too.

[Debian] J-Pilot

2008-09-12 Thread Peter Schwenke
FYI J-Pilot does run on Debian.  I copied across my databases and it
seems to work in display mode.  It is too big for the screen and I have
tried it in landscape mode, as well The keyring plugin works, as well.

I have not tried to sync to my Treo.  But since USB host mode works it
should be possible.

I intend to see how Zhone or the FSO backend can be made to dial from
the the command line (i.e. the J-Pilot dial button).

 Do you think the distortion was on the analog side e.g. volume settings,

 Were you using WiFi or Ethernet over USB?

 Were you speaking to yourself on the other computer, so not over the

I used linphonec 1.6.0 built with mokomakefile for 2007.2 a while ago. Once I

worked as well as any decent SIP client. This was through a convoluted route

  Solid GSM (Sending and Receiving). No Echo, clear calls, full bars.
  My SIM Card contact list imported automatically.
  SMS, Solid.
  Wifi, also works great.
  GPS works. 60 second TTFF and 40 second TTFF w/ external antenna (This is

  microSd works.
  Suspend/Resume .. solid (minus the GUI setting having no effect. but I
 don't care, I just suspend manually with the power button when I'm not using
 it).
  I made a usb cable, so now my phone can receive standard USB devices.. this
 opens many doors.
  
 When I was shopping for a mobile computer/phone, I scraped the planet for
 something open and hackable. What I found was nice machines with propriety
 software that goes through a Telecom company, which is then purposely
 crippled and released for public consumption. Most of the crippling process
 is based on a Business model that nickels and dimes us to death for

MonoMakefile: how to build navit-svn instead of navit-0.0.4 ?

2008-09-12 Thread Harald Koenig
Hi,

using MonoMakefile I'd like to build navit_svn but this fails:

  make build-package-navit-svn
  ...
  ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'navit-svn' (but '[]' DEPENDS on or otherwise 
requires it)

  make build-package-navit_svn
  ...
  ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'navit_svn' (but '[]' DEPENDS on or otherwise 
requires it)

while make build-package-navit and make build-package-navit-0.0.4 both work 
fine
(so does e.g. make build-package-gdb-6.8 to get a specific version...).

there are bb files for both versions, but how to I use/build the svn version ?

  ./openembedded/packages/navit/navit_0.0.4.bb
  ./openembedded/packages/navit/navit_svn.bb


thanks,

FSO milestone3 my view (ON gta01)

2008-09-12 Thread Tilman Baumann
I found the new fso milestone and tried it out on my Neo 1973.
Here is what i think of it.

I used the 2008.2 (GTK) build before.

First of all, i like that it bases on illume. Illume as a WM is gorgeous.
I managed to crash enlightenment some time, but it works very well and 
was never unable to recover itself.

Zhone works well, but it's hideous. The integrated apps approach does 
not work any more in a window managed environment. And the UI is clunky.

But nice work on the back end, it works perfect. I think i never had 
basic phone functionality this stable.
On demand GPS works great too. Finally a solution that does not suck.

And launch time of Zhone is terrible. You are essentially unable to 
accept calls unless you have Zhone runnng all the time. When you launch 
Zhone when a call comes in it is launched the peer or the net has 
already droped the call.

The switchable Illume keyboard works great too.

Now some Bugs:
Differenciating between suspend and shutdown is terribely hard. I almost 
never get the thing to sleep because i fear i would press power too long 
and shut it down. What happens quite often never the less.
(But suspend itself seems to be working great. Finally i do not fear 
that something would not work after suspend)

If i shut it down by pressing the power button long, it ussually 
indicates shutdown (nice animation btw) but then goes into suspend. Both 
events suspend and shudown where triggered.
Then i have to press power again to wake it up to let it finish shutdown.

Zhone screen lock is useless. (Illume has it's own)

When i change icon sizes for the top shelf i never get it to look the 
same as it did before. And it crashes very often. (rm -r .e/ helps *g*)

The power save settings seem to be useless. Aftr i change anything there 
i can only prevent my phone from sleeping by pressing buttons. Taping 
the screen does not wake it up.

Taping the screen powers the display on even if the screen is locked.
I think this wastes battery because the locked phone will always backlit 
  the screen if you have it i your pocket.
But maybe it is right to seperate between locking and suspend. Not so 
sure... Maybe this remark is stupid.

Zhone does not show german umlauts correctly in SMS and it does not 
concatenate big messages composed of multiple messages.

And now some remarks on what i like to change or what i'm missing.

I like the Tichy concept of having pythons apps running as plugins in 
one python runtime.
I always expected it to be something like a app launcher that executes 
python modules rather than calling stand allonw apps.
But tichy as it is is useless. Combining all apps into one screen does 
not help, we have window management.
The GUI design does not strike me as good either.
The all in one concept is just wrong in my eyes. Great idea, but done wrong.
I don't want to have my phone work nearly as like tichy works.

I like to have some native apps like the GTK PIM apps back.
They where really well made, usefull and useable.

I like to have a home screen on the desktop like the GTK home app.
This was really a great concept. i like to see that come back.
I think this would be a easy job for a desklet...

Especially important would be a dialer app that starts quickly. (maybe 
living in a applet all the time)
The GTK dialer would be a great template. ;-)

And i would say it is time for some gui guidelines for new world etk, 
efl apps.
We have a great looking environment, now let's define how apps should 
look. And pleas don't make them look like qtopia, Zhone or tichy.
I have some ideas for that too. But i whink we need some experimenting 
first...
Is there already some movement into finding the new way to interact with 
the UI?

When you look at the contacts on the cable, you can see that there are 
two rows, so you have to plug the cable pretty deep into the connector.
(I think I had only the first row in at the beginning...)  On the

There is no special technique. Just push it in.

 Are you sure this is the correct address? I 'had' to put in
 192.168.62.1 (my router's address) to get it to work.

 Also, lots of crashes if you do opkg upgrade (at least, I've had lots

Openmoko planet language.

2008-09-12 Thread Maciej Ligenza
Hi all,

Would it be possible to make openmoko planet an aggregation of feeds
in english language? Or possibly there could be introduced feeds like:
planet.openmoko.org/en/rss20.xml, planet.openmoko.org/de/rss20.xml and
planet.openmoko.org/rss20.xml to aggregate them all.

I'm not capable of reading in german or french so posts in these
languages (not to mention ?chineese?) are cluttering the channel for
me.

I want to make clear that I don't suggest that these are worthless.

In addition to that channel descritpion in
planet.openmoko.org/rss20.xml states that the channel is in english
language.

thanks
Maciek

yes, they removed functionality that is provided by Illume. But we still

strange, I think that zhone is *gorgeous*, and I don't find it clunky at 
all! IMHO it's *very* pretty, and runs nicely - in terms of speed I 
think it's almost on par with qtopia - it's certainly much faster and 
less clunky than 2008.8. If I could just figure out how to change 
zhone's wallpaper...

the only problem I have with zhone is missing features, such as an 
internal PIM database - at present it only uses contacts stored in the 
sim card. Also the fact that you can only send sms's to existing 
contacts , and can't just type in a phone number. If it wasn't for these 
couple of things I'd be happy to use FSO3 as my primary distribution. 
(yes, I know, be patient, zhone is only a 'test gui', and this stuff is 
coming...)

On the whole though I think it's great!

Re: Mac USB Networking

2008-09-12 Thread Dr. H. Nikolaus Schaller
Yes - both are known and on the bug list.

But debugging OSX kernel drivers needs two machines with the same  
Darwin version connected through firewire and a lot of spare time  
since you have to force the machine to crash, then use gdb from the  
other machine to inspect and try to understand wat did go wrong. Then,  
reboot the crashed machine nd hope that the Journaled Filesystem and  
Time Machine can backup everything. Then try some fix in the sources.  
Recompile on the crashed machine. Copy binaries and symbol files to  
the inspection machine. Then, try again. Each such session takes  
approx. 30 minutes. And, you have to add time to understand the sparse  
documentation of IOKit.
So, if you have no interruptions you verify approx. 8 ideas per day.  
All of them may be wrong and after a long day you have no progress...

Since the Apple CDC driver also works (but shows the problem that you  
have to reconfigure networking after each reboot), I do not have it on  
highest priority.

BR,
Nikolaus

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the nice comments which make me even more suffer because I
have to wait one or two weeks more until my gadget is supposed to arrive
:-)

one question to the community: normally you can't switch easy between
normal USB mode, i.e. a host is talking to a USB device, and
host-to-host mode where two computers are talking to each other; the USB
FAQ even warns not to connecting two computers without any kind of USB
bridge, because this could damage the computers; see here:
http://www.usb.org/about/faq/ans5/

how is this electrically organised in the GTA02 that I could just use a gender
changer to switch between host-to-host mode or host-to-device mode?

Problems building ASU image

2008-09-12 Thread Didier Ptitjes

Hello,

Sorry this may be a dumb question. I'm trying to build an ASU image for 
x86 with the MokoMakefile for several days without success.

I carefully followed the explanations of Wiki, searched the 
mailling-lists and the Web for a tip, but I always get the same error 
message.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ make image
( cd build  . ../setup-env  \
  ( bitbake openmoko-asu-image u-boot-openmoko ) )
ERROR: Unable to open conf/bitbake.conf

I checked my setup-env file. All this seems correct. I also echoed 
BBPATH from it and it seems correct too.

I added -DDD to the bitbake command in the Makefile and it looks like it 
opens the conf file and process it but then it stops with the same 
message...

I can't understand why!

Thanks for your help. Didier.

At some point analogies always break - probably as soon as you start

The destination is the completed sentence of words. It is held  
initially inside your mind, and it is impossible to give the target  
device this destination without any intervening steps. Just as we  
don't yet have autonomous automobiles, either, a steering-wheel (or  
some other control device) is clearly necessary to get the words out  
of your head  into the device.

 try to run it in 2007.2.

 I tried killing pulseaudio with no luck, see my other message in this
 thread.

 I changed the config file to turn off audio as suggested, and got a bit
 further, but still no luck:

 output:
 ---
 Checking sound inits.
 Checking music inits.
 RTS Manager Started.
Adding DUKE.RTS.
 Using .RTS file:DUKE.RTS
 Loading palette/lookups.

 ---

 at which point the screen goes black and nothing happens for more than 5
 minutes. I have to open up a new terminal window and kill the duke3d
 process to get anything to happen.

 could this be related to my accelerometer problems mentioned elsewhere
 (hexdump /dev/input/event2 and event3 gives me nothing)?

That's how far I get too, on 2007.2, sounds disabled (got exactly the
same errors also after killing pulseaudio)

It might have something to do with he accelerometers: sometimes they
still seem to fail after waking up from suspend. I'll try at some
point with a fresh-started phone and see if the accelerometers work
(with accelgame) and then see if duke works better.

Here's a .desktop -file for you to add to /usr/share/applications to
create a menu icon:

and create an executable file dukenukem3d in /usr/bin:

Re: FSO milestone3 my view (ON gta01)

2008-09-12 Thread Guillaume Chereau
Hello Tilman. I will just comment on the tichy part of your email, since
I am the main author.

On Fri, 2008-09-12 at 12:24 +0200, Tilman Baumann wrote:
 I like the Tichy concept of having pythons apps running as plugins in 
 one python runtime.
 I always expected it to be something like a app launcher that
 executes 
 python modules rather than calling stand allonw apps.
But it is exactly what it does.
I think you misunderstood tichy. But still I want to defend my approach
(that you seem to recommend so I am confused).
Tichy is a python app. I can't afford to start a new python interpreter
every time we open an application. I don't want to have too many python
interpreters running at the same time either. My solution is to use a
cooperative event based system for all the basics applications (dialer,
messages, etc) They all run in the same interpreter, and share the same
mainloop. That is what i refer to tichy as a python applets manager.

 But tichy as it is is useless. 
I agree with you in the sense that if tichy would only call stand alone
app, it would be useless.

 Combining all apps into one screen does 
 not help, we have window management.
Do you mean we should use one X window per applet in tichy ? Well that
is possible. In fact I have a backend for gtk+ and etk/evas (still
experimental). Both of them use one window per applet.

 The GUI design does not strike me as good either.
I can unfortunately only agree on this :(.
My fault. I am not an expert in GUI design (I have a hard time with it
cause things that look good on the desktop don't on a small screen.)
When I started tichy I tried to use gtk+, but then gave up and used my
own SDL based gui system (we talk about the guy who liked to write video
games here :-) ). 
Then I though about all the possible choices of graphics backend -and
how critical this choice could be- and I realize the only way to be sure
not to make a bad decision, is not to choose one at all.

So here is how it works :
When you write an application for tichy, you use as few gui objects as
possible. Instead, you define 'Items' with properties and possible
actions.
Then tichy will request for a plugin that offers the 'Design' service
and ask this plugin to create the user interface for the application.
the design plugin is free to create any interface, as long as it shows
the proper items and provides a way to trigger the proper actions on
those items (not unlike edje works)
That is why I can create backends for almost any graphic library you can
imagine, without changing the code of the applications.

 The all in one concept is just wrong in my eyes. Great idea, but done
 wrong.
The concept is wrong or the idea is great but done wrong ?

For me the all in one concept is important, at least for all the basics
phone applications. There is just too much communication between them.
It is not only a matter of sharing data (the framework is there for
this), but also being able to lauch one app from an other, and to share
the screen space in a clever way. Also the time to launch an external
application is too slow.

 I don't want to have my phone work nearly as like tichy works.
 
 I like to have some native apps like the GTK PIM apps back.
 They where really well made, usefull and useable.
 
 I like to have a home screen on the desktop like the GTK home app.
 This was really a great concept. i like to see that come back.

Well, what about the idea I talked about : You define a set of minimal
necessary information needed to construct the gui for many kinds of
applications (most of the time an application is just trying to show
some objects and let the user trigger actions on it). Then you use a
plugin to actually construct the gui. 

I guess Raster was a visionary on this idea. In fact he is the one who
gave me this idea once on irc, the next week I started implementing it
in tichy :P
But even the applications we have that do use edge don't do it the
perfect optimal way. If your application's code use -let's say- a
scrollbox, then you are already deciding that you want to show your
items in a scrolled view, so what if the user want to show them in a
table, or in a fancy 3d view like we start to see on a few closed source

In tichy you would first create a list of items, and then ask

  I don't like Dasher because it introduces uncontrolled waiting

  in order for the target letter to reach the center.

 Surely the waiting state is controlled - by moving the cursor to
 the right (I imagine tilting the Freerunner) the stream of letters
 speeds up.

Yet, sometimes you just have to slowdown untill the needed letter appears.

In any way, it is not the same as a deterministic action under your controll,
lets say, i move from point a to point b, and it would take me as much time as 
i like!
Thats what i meant with uncontrollable, 
i din't mean totally-out-of-my-controll.

  On Dasher's site they make a comparison with car-driving.
  I think that if we were given the chance,
  we would preffere a click-to-destination instead of a steering-
  wheel car-UI.

 At some point analogies always break - probably as soon as you start
 using them to expand outside anything that the original analogiser
 had in mind. ;)

 The destination is the completed sentence of words. It is held
 initially inside your mind, and it is impossible to give the target
 device this destination without any intervening steps. Just as we
 don't yet have autonomous automobiles, either, a steering-wheel (or
 some other control device) is clearly necessary to get the words out
 of your head  into the device.

Wel, the target for me is the letters-of-a-world, not the world,
so from this point of view, yes click or signature-like typing is more like 
controlling a variable but a steering wheel is like controlling the 
derivative of that variable.
Hence the wait-states!

I need to say that, concerning mobile devices, i had try to envision such a 
input-method myself, and the Dasher is as close as it gets to what i might 
had end up with.
My kudos to the programmers and designers of Dasher.

 I like the Tichy concept of having pythons apps running as plugins in 
 one python runtime.
 I always expected it to be something like a app launcher that
 executes 
 python modules rather than calling stand allonw apps.
 But it is exactly what it does.
 I think you misunderstood tichy. But still I want to defend my approach
 (that you seem to recommend so I am confused).
 Tichy is a python app. I can't afford to start a new python interpreter
 every time we open an application. I don't want to have too many python
 interpreters running at the same time either. My solution is to use a
 cooperative event based system for all the basics applications (dialer,
 messages, etc) They all run in the same interpreter, and share the same
 mainloop. That is what i refer to tichy as a python applets manager.

Yea, the concept is great for me it was more a look and feel mishap.

 Combining all apps into one screen does 
 not help, we have window management.
 Do you mean we should use one X window per applet in tichy ? Well that
 is possible. In fact I have a backend for gtk+ and etk/evas (still
 experimental). Both of them use one window per applet.

Well, you just have defended Tichy well.
I was just not happy with that everything happens in one window, and 
only one applet at the time approach.

The gui is kludgy at the time. But as it is work in progress i have no 
problem seeing that change.

 So here is how it works :
 When you write an application for tichy, you use as few gui objects as
 possible. Instead, you define 'Items' with properties and possible
 actions.
 Then tichy will request for a plugin that offers the 'Design' service
 and ask this plugin to create the user interface for the application.
 the design plugin is free to create any interface, as long as it shows
 the proper items and provides a way to trigger the proper actions on
 those items (not unlike edje works)
 That is why I can create backends for almost any graphic library you can
 imagine, without changing the code of the applications.

Edje scrips come to my mind. :)
Sounds great.

 The all in one concept is just wrong in my eyes. Great idea, but done
 wrong.
 The concept is wrong or the idea is great but done wrong ?
 
 For me the all in one concept is important, at least for all the basics
 phone applications. There is just too much communication between them.
 It is not only a matter of sharing data (the framework is there for
 this), but also being able to lauch one app from an other, and to share
 the screen space in a clever way. Also the time to launch an external
 application is too slow.

Yes and now.
The experience with the standallone gtk apps from 20082 was not too bad.
The only app that was a bit critical was the dialer.

I'm not sure what works better. Native single apps or python applets.
Native would at least be more interoperable.
And a applet like way would work too for native code...

 And i would say it is time for some gui guidelines for new world etk, 
 efl apps.

 it may as well be anything else. You can actually play with this in
 tichy : application conf-designgrid/default/wheel

The right way. Besides, i would say the app should decide what category 
of look it wants and the user (framework) how it really looks.

I see some basic app schemes. Tabs, scroll-lists, hirarchical lists 
(scrollable) (like the tree columns finder fiew), tables.

Exciting Experience

2008-09-12 Thread vasco . nevoa
Well, as long as others are keen to share their positiveness, I  
thought I'd chime in as well. :P

The sudden death of my previous smartphone kicked me into using the  
freerunner everyday as main (and single) phone.
And I'm glad to say it has done a proper job for over a month, even  
though I flashed it every 2 or 3 days. :)
I have lost a few calls because of software issues, but these were  
exceptions (pun intended).

I tried the first 4 distros (OM2007.2, ASU, FSO, Qtopia) as soon as I  
got the phone (simultaneously in multiboot from the sd-card), and  
after a day I had thrown away Qtopia because it was too polished and  
not flexible enough (from an experimental point of view). :)
Then OM2007.2 got axed, so it went away too. But I couldn't yet wrap  
my mind around FSO's objectives, and I needed a working phone with a  
few extras, so FSO got the axe too. This left me with ASU (now  
officially OM2008.8), which I proceeded to torture almost daily with  
all the opkg feeds (including testing) I could get my hands on. When  
OM reorganized the repositories, this caused a lot of confusion for  
me, but now I know what to expect from where.
I finally settled with the standard OM2008.8-update because it is the  
right balance between stable (as in I won't lose calls and SMSs)  
and experimental (as in I can try/develop all kinds of  
python-powered stuff and play with the geeky HW peripherals too).

The GPS works well (usually around 40 seconds to get a fix if the  
signal is any good - I did the capacitor hack as soon as I could,  
which was an interesting labor hour where I lost 3 capacitors because  
they are so damn small :S ).
The GSM is also ok, although I got once a couple of complaints of bad  
audio quality - this is now gone, it was probably a bad SW image.
SMS is also no problem.
The accelerometers have been fun to play with (duke3d, gestures,  
accelGame) and make for good showing off of openmoko.
Wifi mostly works - some APs better than others.
Bluetooth is a pain in the ass to configure and use. It is highly  
user-unfriendly, but if you persist, you can do anything (except GSM  
headset... has anyone got it working yet?). Heck, I don't use it  
anyway. ;)
Which brings me down to audio: the routing of this baby is pretty  
complex stuff (as is common in most embedded devices), so it's only  
natural that the more advanced functions are still a mystery. And you  
know what? the fact that there still isn't a GUI way to control the  
sound volume hasn't been a problem so far!!! I find that the  
mechanical design of the Neos is quite above average, and this shows  
off in the audio capabilities -  when the volume is cranked up to  
100%, the case does not resonate and there is no noticeable  
distortion. Very good mechanical and electrical design.

My only real complaint is power management. It just doesn't seem to  
stabilize. For each fs image I flash or opkg upgrade I do, a new  
non-intended behavior happens. But I do understand that, like audio,  
it is one of the most complex things to implement right - balancing  
the intricacies of each chip's power modes (and their spec violations)  
with the kernel's modeling as well as the X-server's old ways - it can  
be very challenging. So OK, I don't get mad if sometimes I have to  
call my Neo from another phone to get it to wake up so I can SSH into  
it. I have confidence in the OM team's competence and in the  
Community's effort and contributions. All we need is a little more  
time and care and everything will be fine.

Overall, it has been a good ride, and it is getting better by the  
week, especially now that FSO efforts are finally starting to get  
momentum - and I think all that D-BUS goodness will start to pay back  
very soon. I can't wait to see the framework integrated into the main  
distro (or vice-versa) - this will make its usefulness and interest  
explode! :D
But it looks like there are at least a few people out there who have  
other plans for it - not just HSR, but efforts like FDOM - and it is  
also exciting to see new distros/remixes pop up.

It is a brave new world we are creating - a big thank you to Sean  
Moss-Pultz for having the courage to push the dream into reality. You  
are the Mark Shuttleworth of the mobile world, and OM is on the  
fast-track to becoming it's Ubuntu (or more rigorously, it's Debian!).  
;)

 If i shut it down by pressing the power button long, it ussually 
 indicates shutdown (nice animation btw) but then goes into suspend. Both 
 events suspend and shudown where triggered.
 Then i have to press power again to wake it up to let it finish shutdown.

I have just created a patch that gives zhone visual feedback when
suspending.

This will, in that order highlight four bars on the screen: “keep
pressed”, “let go”, “suspending” and “waking up”. They are highlighted
when the user pushes down POWER, when he has pushed it for one second,
when he releases it in time and when the phone wakes up.

This also has the effect that keeping it pressed for more than three
seconds it will _not_ suspend, as to not interfere with a shutdown or
restart triggered by the Altr-Ctrl-Del sent this way.

I’ll soon submit that for inclusion, so maybe that problem will be
resolved as well.

Re: Problems building ASU image

But if you look at the log it can read the conf files!
Anyway, I've got rw on all my files...

 Hello,
 
 Sorry this may be a dumb question. I'm trying to build an ASU image for
 x86 with the MokoMakefile for several days without success.
 
 I carefully followed the explanations of Wiki, searched the
 mailling-lists and the Web for a tip, but I always get the same error
 message.
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ make image
 ( cd build  . ../setup-env  \

 ERROR: Unable to open conf/bitbake.conf
 
 I checked my setup-env file. All this seems correct. I also echoed
 BBPATH from it and it seems correct too.
 
 I added -DDD to the bitbake command in the Makefile and it looks like it
 opens the conf file and process it but then it stops with the same
 message...
 
 I can't understand why!
 
 Thanks for your help. Didier.

Agreed and this is especially annoying if you use the FreeRunner as a watch 
(like I do). On ASU that's: take the fr out of the pocket, press power, wait 
1-2 seconds, see the time and press power again. But on FSO (which has a nicer 
clock, btw ;)) that's: take the fr out, press power, wait 1-2 seconds, see the 
shiny clock and then wait 2-4 seconds till suspend is triggered or press the 
button too long and shut it down.
imho the 2 to 4 second timeout (I haven't figured out the exact time yet^^) is 
not really necessary, as the power button is so tiny, that it is very unlikely 
you press it by accident. So im my eyes a much better solution compared to the 
gui by Joachim Breitner, would be to disable the timeout completely.

From what I’ve seen while coding the GUI (which is commited now), I
think the reason why there is a timeout is that if there is not, the
POWER press that you use to wake up the phone will be detected again...

So how does it work on ASU? I think suspending on button _release_ should work 
fine.

Thanks for the review, I agree with almost all your points (except some
Zhone things, but UI is always subjective -- and it's not at all the
point of the fso release as you know.)

 Now some Bugs:
 Differenciating between suspend and shutdown is terribely hard.

Hmm, I thought that bug was fixed. It takes 5 seconds to powerdown here,
holding the button for 1 second should trigger suspend. Check whether
you have the latest illume-fso-theme or config.

 Zhone does not show german umlauts correctly in SMS and it does not 
 concatenate big messages composed of multiple messages.

 Do you think the distortion was on the analog side e.g. volume settings, 
 or delays on the network side?

 
 I tried again last night when I had a second person.  The distortion was
 not too bad.  Gaps and missing chunks but promising.
 
 But there was a long delay receiving the audio.  It might be networking
 or processing speed.
 
 
 Were you using WiFi or Ethernet over USB?
 
 Wifi on both ends with WPA2 encryption.
 
 I'll will try it over Ethernet over USB and ethernet on the other end.
 
 Were you speaking to yourself on the other computer, so not over the 
 Internet?

 
 Yes, locally.
 
 I have tried and connected over the internet.  Wireless going out over a
 512/512Kb ADSL line and connecting to  an actual Video Conferencing
 endpoint another ADSL line.  I have 2 ADSL lines.
 
 Doing the above with Ekiga *some* muffled distorted sounds go back and
 forth.  I receive the picture from the endpoint.  But that stops
 updating straight away.  Then sound stops.
 
 Limiting the call to audio only, I have had both SIP and H239 calls with
 Ekiga with the similar audio results.  Received audio clearly on the
 FreeRunner for a while.  Muffled distorted hardly going out.  But after
 a while  things don't well.  I've used Ekiga a fair bit but know it can
 get dodgy over that ADSL line.
 
 I have been able to initiate and receive calls calls using Linphone over
 the Internet using the above gear.  But I have not managed to get audio
 up and down.  I have also been unable to get audio up and down with my
 laptop with Linphone so that problem is not only with the Openmoko.  I
 have received the no webcam image from my laptop on the endpoint.
 All the routing from the firewall on the laptop/Freerunner end should be
 fine.  I have tried linphone with and without the firewall setting.
 
 At some point I'm going to try setting the endpoint and phone up
 together on the same local switch.  That will make it easier to work
 where the problems are.
 
 When I get (or build) a kernel with the uvcvideo driver I intend trying
  a webcam in usb host mode on the Freerunner and see what happens.
 
...Peter


Peter,

Thanks for the detailed report. I think this is something many of us 
will be trying.

 I was thinking if you could add the option to write a gpx track using

There are plans to add more features to this app, either by me or another

Adding tracks is definitely something he is planning to do.

odeviced (open device daemon): 0.1-alpha release

2008-09-12 Thread Sudharshan S
Hi all,
I am happy to announce the first 0.1 release of my gsoc project, odeviced.
It is more a preliminary vala/c implemenatation of the odeviced subsystem
from frameworkd.
Although mostly compatible with milestone3, odeviced lacks the audio support
and GetInfo DBus methods since vala doesn't support returning DBus types of
signature a{sv}.

This package includes the following device plugins that has been tested on
the Freerunner
accelerometer
* audio (incomplete now)
* display
* idlenotifier
* input
* led
* power
* powercontrol
* rtc

Get the package here,
http://sudharsh.mukt.in/odeviced_0.1-r0_armv4t.opk

The sources are available here,
http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=openmoko-gsoc2008.git;a=summary

GSoC abstract here,
http://code.google.com/soc/2008/openmoko/appinfo.html?csaid=C4E490026007DA79

NOTE: If you have frameworkd installed, please do the following prior to the
installation of odeviced to avoid conflicts in DBus.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mv
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/framework/subsystems/odeviced

Community feedback as always is appreciated and eagerly awaited.
Many thanks to the GSoC mentors for lending a helping hand throughout the
program (..and not to mention the shipped Freerunner. :D)

Happy Hacking,

 When you look at the contacts on the cable, you can see that there are

 There is no special technique. Just push it in.

What I am seeing on a couple of connectors and phones is that the cable

 Hi,
 
 tonight we have packaged the new versions of zhone and frameworkd and
 adjusted the (slightly improved) installer script to install the FSO
 milestone3 kernel.
 
 So if you are running Debian already, you get the new stuff by running
 apt-get update; apt-get -u upgrade
 
 If you are not yet running Debian, you can follow the instructions on
 http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner
 
 That said, I didn’t very thoroughly test the new versions, so it might
 be that you stumble upon stupid mistakes from me. Please let us know (at
 the smartphone-userland[1] mailing list, where most Debian related
 discussion take place) if you find any.
 
 Besides these new versions you might be interested to hear that remoko
 and pypennotes have been packaged for Debian, and fso-gpsd makes sure
 all gpsd-using applications (such as tangogps) work also. We still don’t
 have Illume, as we are still waiting for new Enlightenment libs being
 released and packaged for Debian.

 I tried, it works perfectly, except 2 thing (but I don't know if

 due to FSO 3) : I don't have the zhone bar at the top anymore and
 a tap
 on calendar icon do nothing.

 I don't knwo if it's due to FSO 3 or if it's related to your  
 package,
 anyway thanks a lot for this release

 Both is expected. The calendar is a placeholder for later  
 milestones,
 the top bar has been removed since its functionality is now covered
 by illume (yes I know Debian does not have this yet... I did not
 think about
 that, when we removed it from Zhone).

Wiki outdated ? was Re: Problems building ASU image

2008-09-12 Thread Didier Ptitjes
Hello,

It seems that the Wiki is outdated. For example, the Wiki says you have 
to make openmoko-devel-image or openmoko-qtopia-x11-image. But the 
MokoMakefile version I downloaded has no such target but you have to set

OM_IMAGE_NAME := openmoko-asu-image

in the Makefile and make image.

I'm wondering if anyone has done a fresh build restarting from scratch 
with the MokoMakefile as I can't explain my problems.

This is really annoying. I'm blocked before anything may even be compiled!!

Please help. Didier.

Re: Wiki outdated ? was Re: Problems building ASU image

2008-09-12 Thread Didier Ptitjes
OK I found the problem finaly.

The Wiki states what follows for the local.conf :

MACHINE = x86
DISTRO = openmoko
BUILD_ARCH = i686
INHERIT +=  devshell
TARGET_FPU = 

but the INHERIT +=  rm_work is mandatory else the bitbake doesn't work 
at all as you can see in the errors of my previous message.

Thanks anyway. Didier.

 normal USB mode, i.e. a host is talking to a USB device, and
 host-to-host mode where two computers are talking to each other; the USB
 FAQ even warns not to connecting two computers without any kind of USB
 bridge, because this could damage the computers; see here:
 http://www.usb.org/about/faq/ans5/
 
 how is this electrically organised in the GTA02 that I could just use a
 gender
 changer to switch between host-to-host mode or host-to-device mode?

You cannot just use a gender changer.  As you already perceive, that's
just the physical connection being adapted.

Take a few minutes and read through http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_host
and http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Specialized_USB_cables - the gist of it
is that you use a coupler or non-standard cable for the physical
connection, and settings in the kernel (configurable on-the-fly, of course)
tell the Freerunner whether it is USB Device or USB Host, and whether to
expect 5V over the USB to charge  power itself, or to provide 5V over USB
to power devices.  

There are also some clever things that can be done on this front that
aren't exploited yet, like sensing a resistor's presence or absence and
automatically switching things around.  I wrote a shell script to let me
choose (manually) among the various configurations more easily - when asked
to go to 'power-providing' host mode, it checks for 5V presence on the USB
port and refuses to send out 5V while it is so.  I expect similar
functionality will appear soon in the form of an applet.  (context menu
from the USB tray icon, perhaps?)

As an aside:  It'd be helpful if we could use a short standard term to
differentiate: Host mode providing power vs Host mode permitting charging. 
Given the non-standard nature of Host mode communication on top of
device-mode power, I figure there's no existing standard.  powered host
mode is descriptive but potentially confusing - what is 'powered': the
Freerunner or the devices...  Any suggestions, anyone, or someone know of a
(short) existing term in use?

 Both is expected. The calendar is a placeholder for later milestones,

 The Wiki states what follows for the local.conf :

 BUILD_ARCH = i686
 INHERIT +=  devshell

 but the INHERIT +=  rm_work is mandatory else the bitbake doesn't work 
 at all as you can see in the errors of my previous message.

rm_work should have no effect on whether bitbake can find configuration

Someone else had the same problem as you when they moved the build directory
and did not do a make clobber between moving the directory and starting a
new build ...

Yes, wiki's are always outdated. :-(

 For example, the Wiki says you have 
 to make openmoko-devel-image or openmoko-qtopia-x11-image. But the 
 MokoMakefile version I downloaded has no such target but you have to set
 
   OM_IMAGE_NAME := openmoko-asu-image
 
 in the Makefile and make image.

Please update the wiki to match reality.

 I'm wondering if anyone has done a fresh build restarting from scratch 
 with the MokoMakefile as I can't explain my problems.

Yes.  Make sure you always make clobber if you move the build directory.

The packager of whatever package includes that file needs to set CONFFILES
to include that file.  Then opkg will ask you whether you want to overwrite
the file, or keep your old one, or drop you into a shell to do a manual merge.

Re: Qtopia-core look consistency

2008-09-12 Thread Nicola Mfb
 [...]
 So there is a problem in qtopia/arm or i'm missing again somethink. This is
 the reason why i asked you how should i do to have consistency beetween the
 two SDK (arm - x86). Howewer i installed my built /opt/Qtopia on the
 Freerunner to be sure i used the same toolkit, but the problems are the
 same.


Hi Lorn! after a two day headache i finally found the problem. In Qtopiacore
for arm qreal is a float while in i686fb qreal is double.
I defined qreal as a float on i686 and recompiled it, and now i have the
same paint horror on the desktop :)
The following is a snippet that you can use to show how is simple to break a
QPainterPath rendering in a QGraphicsScene/QGraphicsView:

#include QtopiaApplication
#include QGraphicsView
#include QGraphicsScene
#include QGraphicsPathItem

int main ( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
qDebug ( sizeof qreal is %d,sizeof ( qreal ) );

QtopiaApplication app ( argc, argv );
QGraphicsScene *qgs = new QGraphicsScene;
QGraphicsView *qgv = new QGraphicsView ( qgs );
qgv-showMaximized();

QPainterPath *qpp = new QPainterPath;

qpp-moveTo ( 18164355,12559962 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164319,12560006 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164273,12560058 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164262,12560068 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164253,12560074 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164242,12560080 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164232,12560085 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164222,12560093 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164221,12560106 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164224,12560112 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164231,12560113 );
qpp-lineTo ( 18164239,12560112 );

QGraphicsPathItem *p=new QGraphicsPathItem ( *qpp );
QPen pen ( Qt::white );
//pen.setWidthF(1.0); //UNCOMMENTING THIS BREAKS PAINTING
p-setPen ( pen );
qgs-addItem ( p );

QRect r ( 18164355-qgv-width() /2,12559962-qgv-height()
/2,qgv-width(),qgv-height() );
qgv-setSceneRect ( r );

return app.exec();
}

Run it twice toggling the pen.setWidthF line comment and you'll se wath i'm
saying.

Hoping this may help, i'd like to follow/contribute to further investigation
on a bug tracking system, is there one for qtopia?

 Yes.  Make sure you always make clobber if you move the build directory.

I tried to do make clobber (even if I did not move the build 
directory...) but this did not help.

I just noticed that this behavior only occurs when building for the 
x86 machine. I say this if this can help to identify the problem.

BTW the makefile process is great. I used Gentoo daily so I like it. I 
would suggest to add a x/n numbering for packages selected to be

DFUScript v0.1 - Script to help flashing

2008-09-12 Thread Shawn Thompson
Community,
I got a little bored today and somewhat inspired to write a script 
to help those flashing their freerunner or 1973 often. dfu-utils has to 
have a -d argument if you have multiple DFU capable devices on your 
computer. I got tired of typing out the -d and hex code or copy and 
paste so I wrote a nifty script that does that part of it for you.

To use this script just login to your linux-machine as root and make 
sure that dfu-utils is in your path, if not go ahead and edit the PATH= 
line by appending :/path/to/your/script/folder to the end of that line.

Example usage:
   ./dfuscript.sh fr kernel uImage-something.image.bin

Please note this does NOT check to see if you are using a valid 
.image.bin, .bin, or .jffs2 so make sure that all file names are correct 
before pressing enter. The script will be on GForge soon but for now the 
script is available at http://projektenterprises.com/openmoko/dfuscript.sh

Do you mean x86 as a host, or x86 as a target.  x86 as a target is not
supported, and x86 as a host is what everyone uses, so you can assume that
that works.

 BTW the makefile process is great. I used Gentoo daily so I like it. I 
 would suggest to add a x/n numbering for packages selected to be

MokoMakefile just sets up an environment and then calls bitbake.  Numbering
of packages selected to be built is the domain of bitbake.
