Is the random part of the screen always a linear set of vertical lines?

Yes it's a different way to come at it.

By putting the caps in that case void 100uF will fit easily, but it
needs long leads, the leads violate the can frame / can clearance, you
have to cut the can and make some kind of grommet for the leads to pass
through.  I dunno what happens to BT antenna effectiveness either.

The way I documented you keep the leads short, the components are all in
the can and the can is unchanged, but you're limited to 22uF or maybe 47uF.

The headphone action is overloaded with a digital connection to the GSM

as some protection against large voltages developing on what would be
floating nets on headset insertion, etc.

| You misunderstand. I did not propose to do only one channel.

Yes I didn't get your point.  But I don't think it's the same action as
one cap before each transducer and a direct common low-impedence ground
reference.  The two signals will mix where they join at the single
capacitor and the impedence depends on the frequency.

No there's no real hardware fix that's practical.

We could have done something extreme like PWM the enable by software in
FIQ ISR, but it would result in dim AUX LED even so, since the LED is
not seeing the excess current but just normally lit.

It was fixed on A6, I'm afraid we just have to let it lie and not use
the AUX LED much as pointed out unless we're on external power.

Overall, it's a small issue about small excess current on one GPIO that
spends 99.9% of its life off anyway, as a customer this would bother me
so much less than the buzz or bass issues it wouldn't really bother me
at all.

As I understand it, the problem with CPU digital audio on BT is that
there is no routing path in the WM8753 hardware between the two digital
audio interfaces (CPU and BT).  As in literally it's not there in the chip.

Maybe there's some way to meddle it through the ADC and DAC but other
than that it doesn't work IIUI.

No you can do it with the stuff coming from the analogue paths / GSM.
What you can't do, at least, not by routing the digital sides together
anyway, is like bluetooth headphones (which are being driven by digital
audio bus from Wolfson) to listen to MP3 coming out of CPU on a digital
audio bus to Wolfson.

If you're just trying to do the phone call part through GSM headset,
routing the analogue stuff hooked to the GSM chip to the digital
interface for bluetooth, that has worked OK in the past.

Yes :-)

Keeping it all digital on USB would be a superior solution.  You can get

Well, your consumption is roughly double that of Mickey's... 10h is

I am sure something real is going on there but with the possibility of

Make sure you have the rw in there, and the /boot/append-GTA02 is in
the partition with the rootfs.  Try adding a space before the rw in case
I mangled it with recent changes.

It's a bug I think if the rootfs does not remount root rw.

|

You need to escape the ; with backslashes.  Your setenv is only setting
the text as far as the first ; as it stands, then taking the nand and
bootm as new commands and running them right away.

Having rootfs mount ro initially is a safety feature, it'd be sad if we

It's a good guess... does mount say that it's still ro?  Normally an
initscript will take care about remount rw after it had opportunity to
do fsck if it likes.  Did it try to start X and left some log anywhere?

For NAND it uses the kernel in the third NAND partition same as U-Boot
and mounts the sixth partition as rootfs same again as U-Boot would.

We'd need a jffs2 filesystem parser and to wait for the mount action to
complete to get the kernel if we did it the right way, so we do NAND for
GTA02 the compatible way.

There are several known problems in 2.6.24 branch we won't fix that are

I can't see an easy way.

WLAN can't be disconnected from power, and the device won't stay up
without a battery typically.

What I would suggest is update to something using the newer kernel and
see if it still happens.  One of the changes in the newer kernels is
overhaul of the WLAN driver.

In git anyway the packaging config for the kernel has WLAN stuff as
modules, and when you rmmod the module it should take the device down to
its lowest power state.  So that should give a way to try to point the
finger anyway.

Shouldn't do, but it's closed firmware, so who knows.  On 2.6.24 there
is some bad bug in the WLAN stack that it starts spewing debug messages
for 11 hours every 22 hours or so.  That's a known way it will eat more

It hasn't been observed on 2.6.28+.  So if it helps people choose, it's
a good idea to use a distro that is supporting current kernels.

than time1)
| 0006   0002      0048    - Value X2 (the same X1 )

This is reminding me of a problem we have with level interrupts on
pcf50633 new driver, we also get twice the same interrupt there although
the density of interrupts is so low and logically it cannot get confused
so it doesn't make trouble.

We also changed lis302dl to use level interrupts so it's suspicious now
we see this behaviour that is so similar.

Re: [debian] 2.6.28 kernel problems

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Somebody in the thread at some point said:

| I took a closer look at the build script and i'm quite sure that i'm
| interpreting it correct.
| Maybe the name dummy as first parameter is not very good. In the wiki
| it uses dummy as first parameter which is nothing else than the name

This has changed in the last week.  It was taking me a great deal of
time to switch between GTA02 and GTA03 kernel builds, so I changed the
build script to use the O= kernel makefile parameter to keep the object
files and configs for the builds in different subdirs.

http://git.openmoko.org/?p=kernel.git;a=commitdiff;h=aeb4db1b913993a3e06522f13bab79decbd3cdef

This reduces the time needed to switch typically to just 10 - 20 seconds
or so.  It requires the subdir name to be given in the first parameter
as described in the changed build script.

The optional dummy parameter to signal that you want a module tarball
is then the second parameter now.  It sounds like the combination of the
Wiki and the comments and error help in the build script led to you some
kind of hybrid solution, but the idea is you would have a GTA02 subdir
with suitable config and build that with ./build GTA02, while having a
GTA03 subdir with different config and build that with ./build GTA03.

Somebody in the thread at some point said:

| So the right command line would be something like ./build GTA02 dummy
| to find within the GTA02 directory the modules tar.gz afterwards.

Yes but dummy really is a dummy param, it is just checked if it is there
or not, so I usually use ./build GTA02 x for example.  To save time,
most builds I am not giving that second parameter at all.

| But before i first run the build script i have to create the GTA02

Right, part of the gain from this change is that the configs along with
the .o files all live in their little worlds now, so nothing gets
overwritten in ./GTA02 if you build ./GTA03.  I realize that's not
exactly being a problem for most people yet, but it was getting pretty
bad here having to copy over the config and wait 10+ minutes every time
I had to switch to look at something.

So check your U-Boot env if you're using that for ro, or try adding rw

Well, first confirm with cat /proc/version that you're running what you
think you're running.

Second, WSOD from resume is a bit ambiguous since it can be a more
generic resume failure on 2.6.24.  If you disable resume and just let it
do framebuffer blanking for a while, do you ever see the WSOD just from
that?

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Somebody in the thread at some point said:
| Hello Andy,
| thanks for reacting. still have some questions if I may?

| Is the renaming needed? or can I use the origional kernel name?

It's going to check for exactly /boot/uImage-GTA02.bin in the first
three partitions.

| | Then I powerdown my FR (battery out), put the battery back in
| and press
| | power hold it down and press AUX.
|
| You shouldn't need to press AUX
| Just using power button the first line is shown very briefly and than
| the black screen again. using power button 2nd time gives me the first
| line and a blinking cursor without further action.

Hum.

| Yes it is append-GTA02!

If something is wrong about the SD card partitions, it will fall back to
using the NAND kernel partition (and the NAND rootfs then).  In that
case the /boot/append-GTA02 file won't apply since you're not using the
kernel from there either.

| What can I do further, where can I find new information?

There's some information in the README file in git (click README here):

http://git.openmoko.org/?p=qi.git;a=tree

I would add

loglevel=8

into /boot/append-GTA02 and see if you then get the booting log on the
LCM.  If you do, you know you are booting from SD and maybe there is
some more info available.  If not, you're likely booting from NAND.

| I've been reading about git and saw a patch but I don't understand how
| to use it. Where can I find info on this?

If you want to build qi you need to install the toolchain, clone the repo

git clone git://git.openmoko.org/git/qi.git qi

then checkout origin/master

git checkout origin/master

and run

./build

If you hold down AUX when you power up, you always come into NOR

partition.

If you don't press AUX and power the thing up, it should try to boot by Qi.

On andy-tracking shortly we plan to take down the regulator supplying

Weak transmission or RX or both?

Well, if this is due to SDIO side errors, this situation can have been

Changing the SDIO stack is enough of a jolt it's probably worth blowing

Yes the main difference is that the AR6001 in GTA02 is what's called a
fullmac device, it means that it has an 80211 stack in the firmware of
the device that can run autonomously.  That's in contrast to the other
devices which use a softmac 80211 stack in Linux.

The advantage is that it can run autonomously somewhat even with Linux
down, the disadvantage is we are entirely at the mercy of the
not-really-updateable closed firmware for a very wide range of operations.

Somebody in the thread at some point said:

| I've seen a lot of references to the andy-tracking kernel.  A search
| of archives yields some info about this with regard to a shift to the
| 2.6.27 kernel.  However, I've not been able to really understand what's
| in it, or what the current state of the kernel is.
|
| Would someone mind elaborating a little on a few points:
|
| 1.  Is this generally available?  If so, where?

http://people.openmoko.org/andy has new binary versions every day or two
at the moment.  These are moredriver kernels that have everything
critical built in the kernel, but there's also a matching module tarball.

If you're using U-Boot to boot it, U-Boot has a 2MByte kernel limit by
default and you need to meddle it:

setenv bootcmd setenv bootargs \${bootargs_base} \${mtdparts}\; nand
read.e 0x3200 kernel 0x30\; bootm 0x3200
saveenv

Qi (the new bootloader replacing U-Boot) doesn't have these problems.

| 2.  I'm currently running Debian with the stock kernel that gets put in
| place by the install.sh script.  Can I use this kernel with Debian?
| There are caveats on the Debian pages about using other kernel, so has
| anyone used this with Debian successfully?

Dunno what the caveats involve, I used Debian in runlevel 3 anyway with
random kernels.

| 3.  What do I get with it?  What is at risk?
|
| Thanks... I apologize if this info is out there somewhere, but I have
| spent a significant amount of time digging through past threads, and I'm
| just not getting a complete picture.

You can try it out on an SD Card for very low risk.

The main features are

~ - Suspend / Resume changes (should be way more stable)
~ - pcf50633 driver rewrite (fixes some troubles)
~ - WLAN driver now uses mainline SDIO stack (should fix some probs)
~ - Android-ready
~ - Kernel features and fixes between 2.6.24 and 2.6.28

There will be some breakage of features for a while since there are many
changes to /sys paths used by various things, but the rootfs people
should catch up soon.

No Qi is adapatable to existing common partition schemes on uSD.

What it does is look in first three uSD partitions in turn for ext2 / 3
filesystem, if it finds one and /boot/uImage-GTA02.bin in there it will
pull it in and try to boot it.  If none of those worked out, on GTA02
anyway it will try to boot from NAND kernel similar to U-Boot (except Qi
studies the image and pulls the correct length of NAND for any size kernel).

If it sees a FAT partition it'll just skip it for consideration for
booting and try the next one.

On GTA03 it'll be a similar deal except it looks for
/boot/uImage-GTA03.bin, it means you can isert the same uSD and
filesystems on multiple kinds of device and it will pull the correct
kernel for that device.

buzz / echo / hiss... no software change can fix buzz.  It's baked

Echo reacts to some tweaking in alsa and maybe Calypso firmware option
selection, I guess this turn up in rootfs images as best it can.

Hiss and Etc I didn't hear about, but I don't think kernel or hardware

Somebody in the thread at some point said:

Hi John -

| * some obsolete kernel modules still left in system

If we didn't do it already, the packaged kernels need to move to having
/lib/modules path that is specific to the kernel device and build,
similar to what the ./build script does:

/lib/modules/2.6.28-GTA02_andy-tracking_d0aa5acc0be7c573-mokodev/

The branch and hash stops any conflict about module versions, and the
device tag GTA02 allows multiple kernels to be installed on the same
rootfs, so you can share the SD Card between GTA01 and GTA02 say, both
times with SD Card boot to the right kernel.

| * must remove 'ro' in kernel boot parameter if you use sd boot.

At the moment Qi has ro boot everywhere by default, is this restriction
just a temporary workaround for something?

| he will work on opkg internals next.  Olv moved to look into kernel
| and fso.  Erin will try bluetooth.  Julian is working on the GTK
| redraw issue, please help him out.  Jeremy will fix some qtopia bugs
| and keep working on suspend/resume issues.

Just a thought, it can be worth Olv and Jeremy bouncing what they're
planning on doing off the kernel list.  For example some advice for
Jeremy about suspend / resume issues would be don't waste your time
doing any suspend / resume work on 2.6.24 kernel, only on andy-tracking.

I write to suggest they might get advantage if they coordinate kernel
work on the kernel list -- at least we might not duplicate work on the
same thing and there is a pretty fair amount of knowledge about Openmoko
suspend / resume stuff on that list.

What's sooo strange about that?

About FLAC it's actually really interesting.

They do a lossy compression action like most other codecs, but they then
decode it and compute an additional error channel, the difference
between what the lossy decoder gives and the original it still has
access to at encode time.  The error channel is compressed in the gzip
type sense and added into the FLAC file along with the lossy encode.

The end user FLAC decoder does the lossy decompression and then adds on
the error channel to give a lossless result in the end.
