Re: GPSDproxy: send GPS data from gpsd to a remote server
Hi You can also have a client application for visualizing the data, such as Qgis, an opensource GIS wich can connect to a Posgis database (and create/modify data). http://www.qgis.org/ 2009/1/18 Petr Vanek van...@penguin.cz I released a little software to proxy GPS data read from gpsd to a remote server.

Re: Dead FR: does not boot
You could try hooking the battery connector of the freerunner directly to an alternative 4,5V source, like a battery. With the original battery in the freerunner you can check the polarity. Remove the original battery before connecting the alternative one. If, with a full 4,5 battery, your freerunner doesn't boot, and the cables, connectors,.. aren't broken, I would also guess something serious is wrong with your freerunner. When it boots, or partially boots, you know you can keep trying other combinations of usb/wall/laptop/power/aux/UBOOT (I think some uboot versions can handle the problem better). You can also completely boot withe alternative supply, plug in the wall charger and switch the alternative supply with the original battery. It will then start charging. If I remember correctly you can't see it's charging from the battery icon. #cat /proc/apm will tell you the truth. depeje On Monday 19 January 2009 10:57:45 Eildert Groeneveld wrote: Dear List the booting issue with a flat battery has been with us for some time, but allegedly also been solved.

Although I doubt there's anyone interested (yet), I would like to share these files, please see the attachments.

I have a question though: Is there any way to configure a keyboard so that it doesn't add spaces after each word? Thai language is written without spaces between words, and spaces should be included as punctuation only. Thanks!

Re: Jabra BT3030 experience anywhere ?
Hi, now I have got the Jabra BT3030 working. Excelent sound, no crushing noices as experienced with my Mac OS X :-) I also have successfully tested connection with a second phone to test incoming calls. I'll hear a ring and I could accept and speak. Once the mplayer didn't come back with sound. I'll figure out the cause if I have time. Restarting helped to solve. The installation steps, Steven has explained, are correct, but on the 2008.12 are some packages not installed. I am using mplayer. And there is a working description as of post from Glen at 29.

Re: [All] To build a better music player
Dylan Reilly wrote: One of my primary uses for the openmoko is a music player, and I have spent some time trying to improve my listening experience with it. I wanted to make a web page or such on the subject but I am highly unmotivated to do so. In lieu of that, I am posting my findings here. Audio Quality - IMO, good audio quality can be achieved with proper tweaking of the alsa mixer. Some of the settings do nothing while others make the openmoko sound like crap (e.g., bass boost). The state file [1] is what I am using. One can utilize this by over writing the like-named file in /usr/share/openmoko/scenerios . I even find the bass decent, but not ideal. This is a known, and much discussed, hardware issue. The bass is too low, but this can apparently be fixed by using a bluetooth headset. Audio Player When I started my quest, there was no music player that met my needs. The two that were close were pythm and mokoko. Mokoko has more potential, I believe. However, it has (had?) issues resuming from a suspend (crucial for me). That seems to imply an issue with gstreamer - which it utilizes for playback - and that is something I do not want to bother fixing. So, for the short term I turned to pythm and began hacking away at it. The following is a list of changes I made to the 0.5.1 version: 1) Improved responsiveness, especially with regard to starting the next song in a play list. Nice! I always wondered what it was waiting for. The current delay is variable too - sometimes very long. 2) Lowered processing overhead during main update loop. 3) Tweaked the GUI. Most notably, the buttons are larger. Perfect! the old ones was too flat for fingers. 4) Read ID3 tag info at play list load time using python ID3 library. 5) Optionally (default true) disable suspend through enlightenment while song is playing. Change the no_suspend option in the [mplayer] section of /etc/pythm.conf. 6) Automatically pause playback when phone call received, resume on hang-up. Only if running on FSO-based framework (not qtopia phone-kit). That was really needed. 7) Hook directly into alsa for setting/getting the volume. Will this get more useable volume levels? The current slider only has a few positions: max: slightly too loud. max-1: slightly too low, although useful when talking to someone. max-2: can barely hear that there is any music playing. The 5 other positions are lower and not useful. 8) Tweaked nice levels for more consistent playback. The only thing I miss then, is an easier way of selecting several songs in one go. currently, clicking one song deselects the previous one. It'd be perfect if I could click all the songs I want, and then click the add button once. I usually pick more than one song from each album. So multiple selection would be nice. Perhaps an add all button when you want the entire album too. Helge Hafting ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: [Om2008.12] Adding swap space can stop app crashes
Nick Van Fossen wrote: Just as a helpful note, adding swap space seems to help against application crashes. I've always had issues with tangoGPS and the various webbrower apps crashing. Looking into it a little more I notice that this was occurring when the puny 128MB of memory was getting filled up. So, I added a swap file onto my microSD card and have had these problems practically clear up. Anyone else had any similar experiences? If this is a true fix this should probably go onto the wiki. I have a 128MB swap partition on the microsd. This works fine, currently using 10M of swap with 3 days of uptime. So I currently have 10M more available for cache and programs than I otherwise might. Using some swap may speed up stuff as well. When memory gets tight, linux have a choice between swapping out little-used data, throwing away some file cache, or throwing out stuff that can be reloaded (such as the code in your binaries.) Without swap, linux can only throw out file cache and binaries. Even if there is some really old unused data around. Data cannot be discarded unless there is somewhere to put it - i.e. the swap partition.

Re: Jabra BT3030 experience anywhere ?
I have choosen this to have one script and not another for bonding to be issued before. If the bonding is done, the output of that command could simply ignored. There are other samples for passkey gathering. I had no luck with the GUI (python, import gtk) because of propably missing python libraries. The best solution would be calling the GUI version of a passkey when there is no bonding. Also there are issues with the media player that are have to passed special parameters not always required (if no bt device is in the field). I suggest a config file written by the passkey agent that a bluetooth device should be used, then in the mplayer start scripts I posted some time ago desicions could be made how to output the sound. OTOH the sound system should do that, not the player :-) BTW, that BT device and an FM transmitter would be quite a good car handsfree installation. Using a 2 Ampere car USB adapter, also charging is no more an issue and the BT device could charged too :-) Lothar Am 19.01.2009 um 14:49 schrieb arne anka: passkey-agent, ie pairing, should be necessary only the first time using a bt device (except you removed the cache, by flashing or deleting, of course). can somebody, please, put these steps in the wiki? if two people got a jawbone working with these steps, it is obviously far better than anything else posted yet. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- | Rapid Prototyping | XSLT Codegeneration | http://www.lollisoft.de Lothar Behrens Heinrich-Scheufelen-Platz 2 73252 Lenningen ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

If so they don't work properly with bluez 3.33 which last time I checked is the version in most repositories They are also suffering some bitrot and probably need some rewriting. As far as bonding to a device thats already bonded is it's better to delete the old bonding and create a new one. I found that if the user was trying to re-pair a device there's was usually a reason. Some of these headsets will only store pairing for 1 device so a new paring may be required if it has been paired with a deifferent device since the FR last saw it.

As far as I understand it the openembedded directory contains the various recipes to download, apply packages, and build packages. In the Gumstix development env there are three directories containing package recipes. The bbpath variable is used to give the three priority. User recipes have priority over Gumstix recipes, which have priority over OpenEmbedded recipes. All this means is that if I define a recipe for a package it will be used ahead of either of the others. currently in the openembedded tree there are a few FSO recipes. I'm trying to build fso-image which I want build and then change it to build andy tracking kernel as the prefered supplier.

fso - charging question
Hello! I'm using latest frameworkd and andy-tracking. Right now my phone behaving like this - it's charging (orange led) until the led is blue, than after some time led turns orange again and charging starts. This is all while phone is connected to pc.

gentoo on freerunner
Hello, I'm a gentoo user and I would love to get it running on my freerunner. However, I don't find details explanations. One solution I read about (and seems great) is to install crossdev on my desktop PC to create a system for armv4t. I was using paludis but switch back to emerge recently. I think either one is ok? When I got a full system on desktop, how do I install it on the freeruner? do i need to make the standart installation? When the previous is completed, I can emerge binary package (compiling them on desktop). Then I won't need gcc, and all that stuff on the freerunner (RDEPEND stuffs). But profile will ask for them in the system set. Is it doable to remove gcc, autotools, etc. without having emerge trying to emerge them back? That could save a huge memory space I think. Maybe my 512Mo card will be enough -- I read about needing 2Go. Finaly, I have a remark about the embded overlay I found (I guess the mainteners read this list). It provides fso software and various stuff. It also provide enlightenment. This is just a suggestion, but I think it would be better to rely on vapier's overlay for that.

My maps are in /media/card/kart/, but yaouh thinks they are in /home/root/Maps. so it doesn't check my 5 tiles. I have tangogps set up that way, because there is more room on the 8GB card, and it isn't blanked when I flash a new SHR image. I do not know where tangogps keeps this information though. Helge Hafting After trying a few different things, now one of my first moves is to delete /home/root/Maps and replace it with a symlink to the SD card Maps directory. Rather than use the yaouh script, the first version of which didnt like the symlink, I used the idea (thanks for putting me onto E-TAG) in a quick perl lashup - works fine (well, working fine as I have ~84 png files totalling 3.3Gb and its been running since soon after yaouh was announced - will be awhile yet!) I use a master archive on my desktop for this - and syn the freerunner to this using rsync. Some things I ran into with such a large number of maps: ext2/3 is not really suited to storing such a large number of small files. The main problem is the fixed number of inodes which I ran out of despite having 2Gb still free on the SD card partition :( To work around, create the file system with -b 1024 -i 1024 for the maximum number of inodes - unfortunately this cant be changed after the FS is created. Where I live (Perth, Western Australia) there are large areas of surrounding sea/land/forestry/desert etc that use a single colour tile - each of only 103 bytes. I symlinked all identical files (based on md5sum) such that only one copy of each is kept. This has the advantage that as ext2/3 uses fast-symlinks, the actual symlink (provided the path is 60 characters) is stored in the inode and doesnt take any block space on the FS. This shrinks the size as given by du -sh from 3.3Gb down to ~550Mb. Pity ext2/3 doesnt do tail packing, but maybe reiserfs which would be a lot more suitable will come into the FR one day. When I get time, I hope to investigate a loopback like tarfs or squashfs to see if that can improve this wasted space. I'll need to finish my current update and create a new symlinked archive to see how much wastage tail packing would save - should be a fair bit. Lastly, I would get occasional lockups, blank tiles and FS corruption from tango - eventually traced it to the SD card clock - if you see this look up sdclk on the wiki and slow it down a bit.

Sometimes they are not putting the right specifications on the batteries. Right now I have in my other phone (k700i) battery with the capacity double of the original one. But this is just a label. Uptime is the same as with the original battery. My point being that for more capacity you need to have bigger battery. It's not possible to contain more energy in the same amount of electrolyte.

Re: Yaouh! out (update for tangogps maps)
Ar, cant be bothered to fix it too much :)
cutpasted below.
Watch the line breaks input by email.
Script 1 does the updates
No error protection/recovery (hasnt thrown any errors anyway!) - I
suspended the system it was running on last night (forgot about it! - it
continued again fine when resumed without a problem :)
I got carried away chomp'ing, could be better done.
Change paths to suit your system
This was proof of concept - now I know it works,
I want to use LWN instead of curl,
thread it for 6 or so concurrent threads
add error protection
script2 generates a symlinked directory based on an original which is
left unchanged. Can take a few hours to run, but it was dealing with 3
plus gbytes of files and could be better optimised. Once generated, sync
to the FR using rsync over wlan

Re: [fso] sending pin failed
tried the new firmware for the gsm chipset and 2008.12 yesterday, and made my first phonecall with the freerunner!! thanks for the advice now i only have to try to fix the other problems 2009/1/18 William Kenworthy bi...@iinet.net.au Oh and forgot, upgrade to the openmoko-10 firmware for the gsm chipset as it helps (not totally, but hey 5/10 is better than 1/10 reboots to PIN/register! :) with a number of issues, including PIN and registering with 2008.n distros, but not with gsm0710muxd unfortunately.

Also, give it a few hours and reboots for the distro to finish setting itself up, indexing etc before deciding it wont play. Also, some 8gb and above SD cards need a slower clock - search for sdclk on the wiki Try 2008.12 - I find that FSO and SHR which use the gsm0710muxd just lock up the gsm chipset and dont work - ever :( Some SIM cards just dont work at all ...

Re: gentoo on freerunner

Hello,
I'm a gentoo user and I would love to get it running on my freerunner.
However, I don't find details explanations.
Check http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/gentoo/ , look at the documentation
and mailing list ;)
One solution I read about (and seems great) is to install crossdev on my
desktop PC to create a system for armv4t. I was using paludis but switch
back to emerge recently. I think either one is ok?
I tried both, they work but I still prefer paludis because I find it
easier for me
(with {,R}DEPENDS not handled at all so it's possible to install header files
in the sysroot with different versions that the host, but well, that's just
preference I think)
When I got a full system on desktop, how do I install it on the
freeruner? do i need to make the standart installation?
The process is to build everything in a rootfs, then configure it.
You can find the old wiki page attached here:
http://lists.projects.openmoko.org/pipermail/gentoo-devel/attachments/20081110/3e5de686/attachment-0001.html
(you have to copy/paste the html code into a new file.html and open it)
When the previous is completed, I can emerge binary package (compiling
them on desktop). Then I won't need gcc, and all that stuff on the
freerunner (RDEPEND stuffs). But profile will ask for them in the system
set. Is it doable to remove gcc, autotools, etc. without having emerge
trying to emerge them back? That could save a huge memory space I think.
Maybe my 512Mo card will be enough -- I read about needing 2Go.
You'll be cross-compiling everything so you won't need any toolchain on
the freerunner itself.
Finaly, I have a remark about the embded overlay I found (I guess the
mainteners read this list). It provides fso software and various stuff.
It also provide enlightenment. This is just a suggestion, but I think it
would be better to rely on vapier's overlay for that.
Check the gen...@openmoko overlay too
http://projects.openmoko.org/scm/?group_id=228
It contains fixes for cross-compilation and for freerunner-specific changes.
