Re: GTA02: NavBoard V3 causing GPS interference
Am 07.02.2013 um 14:36 schrieb Pascal Gosselin: Yesterday I was able to confirm that the installation of the Golden Delicious NavBoard V3 very seriously degrades the performance of GPS when using the built-in GPS antenna. Getting a 3D fix is taking over 20 minutes on average using the built-in GPS antenna. When using an external GPS antenna, the issue goes away and an unaided GPS cold start can be achieved in about 41 to 44 seconds. Or can it be that the U.FL cable for the GPS antenna module is broken? I know that it is a weak point of the Openmoko antenna module design, but it can be repaired by cutting off the broken end and resoldering. If the cable becomes too short, get a precrimped 100mm U.FL - U.FL jumper cable and cut in the middle. In that case it could be that after mounting everyting, the LNA of the GPS Module is no longer working and you loose 20dB of signal amplification. You can easily check by measuring the DC-voltage at the GPS Module. Or the resistance at the U-FL end of the cable (should read ~50 Ohm).

Re: qtmoko calendar
Hi Adrien, thanks for this very handy tool. It works almost perfectly with my ics calender I export from orgmode. there is just one minor thing: it fails if I have a date on -07-31 which as far as I checked my calendar does actually exist: for the error I found the following bug [1] on the internet with the solution to set the database datestyle like: ALTER DATABASE bugzilla SET datestyle = 'iso, dmy'; is this also possible with the qtopia database? this is the output I get Prepare the appointment recid=248 description=Bruno Brezinas %d.

Hi, i have packages and even tarbal of v52 for Freerunner. Unfortunately with it the modem does not register to network. It can be workarounded from console, but real solution is needed so that it's usable. I will do release once it's fixed, but i cant give any date...

Re: Qtmoko v52-armhf : Issue to resume

I've noticed two issues when I resume my phone from suspend : * Sometimes my screen kept black and I'm only able to shut down my phone with power button (I didn't have my computer at these times, so I don't know if I was able to connect with ssh) * Sometimes the screen display the last qtmoko image with screen lock, but it's stuck. Eg, now my screen dipslays 2pm (last suspend I think), but here I'm at 3 pm now. The only one interaction possible is to press Aux and see the ^@ strings displayed. Hmm i guess we need to reproduce it somehow. Maybe automatic suspend resume cycles using rtc alarm could reproduce it - but IIRC i tried it and had no luck. I didn't have this issue since some days, but it appeared this morning again, after this situation : * I'v made a call in the train * An interruption appeared because the swiss gsm network in trains is really bad * So my correspondant called me back (she was in another train), but I wasn't able to answer (I'm pretty sure it's because of our gsm network again, we had same errors using proprietary phones) * Finally I've called her again and we were able to finish our discussion normally. Furthermore, after each call end, I receive an SMS from my gsm operator to say me how many credits I've on my SIM card. That's not really easy to reproduce... I've straced again qpe process and I've seen same error with (Q)Debus. So I've stopped qtmoko-gta04 service, then I've restarted dbus service and started qtmoko-gta04 service again and all works fine. I didn't think to strace dbus process, so it's not really relevant, but this workaround seems to work. I hope to have this bug again to be able to produce more straces.
