Hi Mickey,

very cool thing, i have installed it from "testing", but my GPRS didn't 
work. if I try gprs-on.sh there is this answer:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/media/card# ./gprs-on.sh
/org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device: ActivateContext failed: 
org.freedesktop.DBus.Python.Exception

i have no idea what that means or what i could do to fix this problem, 
does anybody has a hint?

mdbus not available - but where?

2008-10-08 Thread Arne Zachlod
Hi,

i have installed Rasterman Image and FSO on my freerunner and it runs, 
it didn't work, but it runs :)
but there is a problem, i want to use mdbus for gprs, but i can't find a 
package where it is, does anybody knows in which package i can find mdbus?
and does anybody have a compiled openmoko-mail or me? this would be very 
nice, it looks so great, but i'm too stupid to compile it by myself.

i don't know why it isn't in the repository :).
but if i try to compile version 0.1.6 there is the following error 
(after "om-conf epdfview"):

__
checking for POPPLER... configure: error: Package requirements 
(poppler-glib >= 0.5.0 gdk-2.0 >= 2.6.0 pango) were not met:

No package 'poppler-glib' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables POPPLER_CFLAGS
and POPPLER_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

FATAL: oe_runconf failed

so, i know what it means, but i don't know what to do now? so, can

if u have your freerunner connected via usb to your PC, u can connect to

look here for info:

for adding files on the freerunner i use gftp in ssh2 mode, that's very

Re: freerunner unable to work with 3G SIMCards?

2008-07-05 Thread Arne Zachlod
Hi all,
I get my new SIM today per post and it works fine. But I have to say- an 
1.5 year old SIM card isn't old in my eyes!! that can't be the solution 
for everyone- to get a new SIM, so you have to bring out a patch for 
this issue. because most customers won't accept that they have to get 
(or buy) a new sim-card. Even not when they recognise that older 
sim-cards work (oldest card i have put in was a 8 years old 2G card).

bye, Arne

I hope I have understood you correctly and did what u meant. this is the

so, i don't know what this error means, but the PIN was right. i hope

Hi David,

thnks a lot, i have found now these wiki-article: 
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Carriers#Germany and have seen that i have 
nearly the same SIM-Card (i have 64K, 3V, #513, H244, 27-658-30-9 
UJ), so i think the new one will help and my problem are gone then.
for the SIMYO-problem: i found here 
https://www.simyo.de/de/informieren/umts.html that all new simyo cards 
are 3G cards. I would still propose that you request a new card, because 
simyo is part of e-plus, so i think they use the same SIM-Cards.

i don't think the card is the problem, but the freerunner. The card 
works in all phones (3G and non3G) i have tried, excluding the FR, so i 
think there HAVE to be a bug or something else, but no idea how to find 
out what could be wrong.
I asked my provider for a new card now and he said he will send me one. 
Now i have to wait, but im not sure that this will help me.

the brandnew freerunner and the powered-off gsm schip

2008-07-02 Thread Arne Zachlod
yes, i got it! ist cool, it looks nice and i already have the first 
problem- the gsm-chip is powered off when i start the mobile. i can 
power it on, but for that i have ti cancel the pin-dialog an i have no 
idea where can i reopen the dialog. but the phone is nice, very nice :)
i will now look for a possibility for solving that problem. (does anyone 
knows where i can change the standard power setting so that the gsm-chip 
will be powered on at every start of the phone?)

Im not sure, but I think with an even thicker phone there will be more 
no-geeks who dont care about the freeness who wont buy the phone only 
because its thick and heavy (and such a phone would be heavy).
an the second problem is, the batty we use now is a standard-battery, u 
can buy an battery like this at ebay for 10 bucks, but a custom battery 
sounds very expensive.
i think the key for longer life isn't a bigger battery, but a better 
energy saving.
