I want to ask if there was some progress in support of Neo Freerunner in stock kernel. There is some support for it in mainline, I'm not sure that it's enough to suit your usecase, beside patches to fix some gta02-specific issues or patch that should have been submited to mainline that weren't, some drivers are not in mainline: * The glamo driver. * The wifi driver: I've been told that the mainline ath6kl was very different from the one in the freerunner, and that it was because the firmware of the very early ath6k of the freerunner was very different. I still use old 2.6.29 with openmoko modifications, is it possible to use kernel 3.13? No idea, you have to try it out, be sure to get a debug board for that: 1) configure(stuff like make ARCH=arm xconfig/menuconfig for instance) the kernel for the gta02, by looking at the existing configurations of the lastest kernel 2) compile and run it 3) you'll have no display working at that point, so that's why you really need the serial console at first. 4) forward-port the patches specific to the GTA02 and the missing drivers. In order to have to do it only once, do that with mainlining in mind, and do use the devicetree. mainline the patches. I don't need phone functionality, only display, That requires the glamo, so you'll have to forward port the glamo driver at least. audio That driver is in mainline, but maybe without devicetree bindings. and gps. Shouldn't be too hard to mainline, assuming you choose the right framwork for it. if I remember well, it's just some gpio toggling, and that can even been done in userspace if mainling that is difficult. I have looked around, there are some Neo stuff in stock kernel, but I don't know, if it is usable. Last news I have, which is really old, is that SHR had the most recent kernels in their meta-smartphone layer, but I'm unsure if that's used or not. 2.6.39 is used in meta-smartphone shr branch, 3.2 has few more issues but it's used in master branch - audio and display works fine for me, not sure about gps. Sources are in https://github.com/shr-distribution/linux branches starting with om-gta02/x.y... Please can anybody tell me, what's the situation now? Have anybody tried new stock kernels? It depends on what you mean by new, SHR had a more rencent kernel with almost everything working beside the regulators, which means that GPS, modem, and wifi had issues. Since it was just some GPIOs it could have been worked arround in userspace, like by modifying the fso plugins again.

Right now it's undergoing testing in linux-next and there are several fresh discussion threads about it on lkml. I intend to wait until the code has stabilized a bit before making the attempt. First, is this a good idea? Also, is anyone else interested? The problem is that the code only compiles against recent Linux kernels and the newest kernel available for GTA02 is 2.6.39. I see two options: 1. Get Linux 3.7 working on the GTA02 3.2 kernel works pretty good https://github.com/shr-distribution/linux/tree/om-gta02/3.2/master there are branches also for 3.5 and GNUtoo is working on it. Cheers, 2. Get f2fs working on Linux 2.6.39 Both options are challenging but I have to go for #2 because I don't have the knowledge to do #1. For #1: There are quite a few differences between upstream 2.6.39 and om-gta02-2.6.39 kernels. Some of the patches I understand and could re-apply against a more recent kernel, some of them have already been integrated upstream, but others are mysterious to me and even if I could apply them I can't guess whether or not they ought to still be applied. One big issue is that the glamo driver is not present upstream (and ar6000 also?). For #2: I have already prepared a patch to backport f2fs to 2.6.34/2.6.39 but there have been quite a lot of changes in the vfs and other areas in the intervening time. The patch is 817 lines long. Most of it is straightforward, though there were one or two tricky bits. The only thing I have achieved so far is getting it to compile with no errors and no warnings. That's a start, but it's not a guarantee that the filesystem will actually work! A significant problem with #2 is maintenance and bug fixes going forward. I would have to backport all future changes to f2fs. Anyway, for the information of anyone who's interested, I plan to at least give option #2 a try and see if I might be lucky :-) -v ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- Martin 'JaMa' Jansa jabber: martin.ja...@gmail.com signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

When I had my Neo in full flight, I often used a Bluetooth keyboard to do longer sessions. For short sessions, I'd use the stylus and the tiny onscreen keyboard. I actually tried a variety of Bluetooth keyboards, and yes, balancing them can be a pain, especially in a moving platform like a train. I found a good way to situate things, with my backpack as a support for the Neo, and thus only having to hang onto the keyboard on a subway train, which has lots of motion. Is it ideal? No. Would having a cradle or some sort of attachment been better? Probably, but it wasn't useless. Yes it's better than onscreen keyboard but being able to attach it to phone is the important part at least for me. (I was carying that keyboard in original paper box and was using top cover to hold my freerunner - but that's still far from ideal). Something like double battery cover with some rails for keyboard sliding out from it would be nice (still holding one piece of hw - even if it makes whole phone extra 1cm thick). It doesn't need to be in main body and it would also add option to decide to go out with just classic cover and smaller case. I wrote e-mails, reports, and diary entries in this way, and I liked it a lot -- as the onscreen keyboard is handy but not functional. Now, if the keyboard was big enough for me to do work, but also portable, that would be fantastic. I saw a smaller Bluetooth keyboard yesterday ... which is about the size of an average phone. The keys were way too small for fingers, so I'm guessing it is aimed at the thumb market, which might be a fit for some but wouldn't help me.

Hi, on FSOSHRCON'11 we decided that we should do first official release. We expected to ship it in January, but everybody was quite busy so only now we have something to call at least rc1. Of course there are still some bugs, some are even already known, but please let us know what is blocking this release and what can be fixed in next one. To do that please test latest staging images+feeds. See http://www.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/Stabilizing http://www.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/StagingTests for details how to test them. I've started image rebuild for staging 032, but I'm leaving for 5 days tomorrow at 4AM and I guess they won't be finished in time to close 032 for easier testing.. that's why I'm sending this announcement now. If there is at least few test reports tonight I'll merge staging feeds up to 031 to public feed so we get more users using it.

If you ever have tried to hack on a GTA04 you will love it as your single platform :) I hope I will, but old GTA02 board still has some value, similar my old Sharp Spitz which is still running and used from time to time.

And if there is new case, will it use the same LCD from Well, there are external bluetooth keyboards for 39 EUR of approx. the same size as the GTA... This makes it quite impossible to develop a keyboard at comparable price. Yes I have one of these, but try to use it in a train for longer time, usually you have to hold keyboard with both hands to type with thumbs and then phone screen is too far in your lap or you try to hold phone closer to eyes while typing one hand with keyboard balancing in your lap - not so good for longer texts with lots of special characters :). GTA02 (it there enough modules?) or will it use something else? Yes, the idea is to make a replacement case around the existing display and PCB. In other words I would advertise GTA04 board more like base of completely new phone not as board upgrade for old one (GTA02). That is not the idea behind the GTA04. It is designed as a motherboard upgrade and if we want to completely design a new phone it would be quite different. We simply have quite complex technical limitations. Being able to reuse as much components from GTA02 is definitely big plus and works great for people who like GTA02 case. I'm just saying that maybe there is a lot of potentional customers which would be even more interested in GTA04 if they can expect to use it in different case later (even if the case is then for another 250e). I know you can use GTA04 without LCD and case already, but for people who don't have GTA02 or don't want to sacrifice it yet, it's not an option to keep it that way forever, they want some vision of new phone. Currently we can't give that because we don't see how we can make a completely new device cheaper than one that reuses some parts.

That is what I don't understand - why would someone want to keep the GTA02 in operation... For me it was mostly to keep GTA02 supported by SHR, but as I said before I still keep Spitz in operation even with more powerfull devices available to me e.g. N900 (maybe because of 3 extra rows of keys and all special characters on hw keyboard :)) Either the GTA04 is so good that you don't need the GTA02 any more or you would not need a new GTA04 :) Well, we don't have enough

SHR future and way for better stability
Hi, in last few days we were talking a lot about state of shr-testing, shr-unstable, shr-core and how to improve stability and usability for our users while not slowing down development in our latest version which is shr-core. For details and reasons you can read log from #openmoko-cdevel (13:30) http://logs.nslu2-linux.org/livelogs/openmoko-cdevel/openmoko-cdevel.20111201.txt In the end everybody agreed that we don't have manpower to maintain 3 flavors of SHR which are: shr-testing: There were only 2 maintainers of shr-testing. Sebastian Spaeth for shr-testing2009 and Thomas Zimmermann for shr-testing2010 and 2011.1. There was discussion about more fixes for shr-testing, but nobody sent patches for http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded/log/?h=shr/testing2011.1 so that they could be applied in standard shr-testing feeds. From my perspective shr-testing lacking so far behind shr-unstable and with known issues is not better then tested images and feeds from shr-unstable. shr-unstable: This was based on master branch of openembedded (today called OE-classic) so there was a lot of changes every day which sometimes caused unstable telephony or unusable UI. It was caused mostly because of very limited testing between building it on SHR buildhost and users getting it from shr-unstable feeds by opkg upgrade. But since July 2011 the development in OE-classic was slowing down becase everybody was moving to new layered structure of oe-core/meta-* (google yocto project for more info and fancy video). shr-core: Originaly started in March 2011 as my experimental pet project to evaluate new layers like oe-core/meta-oe, but later all remaining SHR and FSO developers switched from shr-unstable to shr-core too and now we have very lively meta-smartphone repository with BSP layers for our beloved phones and layers for FSO, Aurora and for SHR as distribution. Some stuff from old shr-unstable is still missing and sometimes it's changing too fast for average end user who depends on working telephony. So today we've decided to try something else. Instead of trying to maintain 3 different flavors of shr, we will try harder to provide best experience with shr-core and hopefully migrate all remaining users of shr-testing or shr-unstable to it soon (and then we can rename it to shr-stable :)). Starting with next build we won't push the build output directly to normal feeds, but only to staging feeds for testers which decide to try newer versions. It works like this: 1) http://build.shr-project.org/shr-core nothing will be changed in this feed before it's tested by multiple users from staging feed. 2) http://build.shr-project.org/shr-core-staging/ will contain one directory for each major feature we want to test (like EFL or FSO upgrades) or sometimes just rotated weekly when there isn't something major or dangerous. Each directory has by 3 digit name which identifies the feed (lets call it NNN). Each NNN directory has info.NNN file (and info - info.NNN symlink) where you can read on which revisions was this feed started, which commits were used during populating this feed and when this feed gets closed (or lets say marked as ready for testers). You can also read how all our branches looked when it was closed. Currently there is 001, 002 and latest. 002 is still getting more stuff from live build, so it wasn't closed yet. When we decide that there is enough stuff for testing and the feature is complete, we'll close 002 and redirect build output to new 003. Latest link points to latest but _closed_ feed (so usually highest -1) which is currently 001. If you want to help testing, then best way is to prepare 2nd partition (not the one you're using for daily phone you depend on) and redirect default shr-core feeds to latest closed: sed -i 's#shr-core#shr-core-staging/latest#g' /etc/opkg/*-feed.conf or of course you can lock it to whatever number you want to test later ie: sed -i 's#shr-core#shr-core-staging/007#g' /etc/opkg/*-feed.conf Also you should also download info file from selected directory so you'll know what you are testing after latest link is moved to newer feed. wget http://build.shr-project.org/shr-core-staging/latest/info Then you can upgrade with opkg or reflash to newer image (if images are available in staging area too). opkg update opkg upgrade Now you can test whatever is important for you (telephony, music, video, ...) and if you're happy with new testing feed you should report it on our wiki http://www.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/Stabilizing there will be table for each NNN feed and you should say there if you're fine with it moving to default public feed or if you have found some issues with it, bug number from http://www.shr-project.org/trac/report where you've reported those issues would be great and it would be fantastic if you also include in that report which NNN feed was last known to work for you and first one where it was broken.

Aurora is supposed to be something we call a featurephone client – featurephones being those things we used for telephony before smartphones were invented. Could you please elaborate a bit further for those of us who are unsure of the specific functional differences between a featurephone and a smartphone? For sure. Featurephone vs. Smartphone is resembling the difference of, lets say, a Sony Ericsson K700, and an iPhone. On the K700, the whole OS is designed around the telephony. While it has additional features, it doesn't allow you to install native applications (well, yes, there are some Java applets, but these don't count as they are not at all integrated into the system and they can't access the phone databases nor talk to each other) – it sells because of the quality of the telephony. On the iPhone, the whole OS is designed around the idea of a mobile computer that allows you to perform a vast variety of tasks. You can install a myriad of apps and only a very minor percentage of these apps have anything to do with telephony. The telephony is a feature among many others. In fact, telephony is pretty lousy on an iPhone, but that's ok, because it is not the feature that sells this device. Bottom line: feature phone is less flexible, comes with everything preinstalled, and is designed around the telephony.

Maybe someone knows why lots of gdk_draw_points would crash X. I think using the GdkPixbuf is faster anyways, so I'll try to add this to the bug posted on the orrery project page.

But it also won't mount your uSD automatically (it was blacklisted before, but removing it from blacklist won't help now). * Included packages contains latest stuff like xserver-1.9 (RC3), foxtrotgps and tangogps 0.99.4, QT 4.7.0-beta1 and QML enabled navit. * Distribution revision was changed in OE, this means that every package installed from shr-unstable feeds will be upgraded during next opkg upgrade (so be sure that you have enough time and space in /var partition). Consider flashing new image, it can be faster and safer in the end. * Used GCC was upgraded from version 4.4.4 to 4.5 (svn revision 160764 from gcc-4.5-branch, because released 4.5.0 has few issues on ARM targets). * New GCC brings LTO optimizations, which can give us 30% speedup in some cases, see benchmark results [1]. LTO is not enabled by default yet. * New kernel has some issues, so please try first (on another uSD partition), before upgrading your daily-phone-partition. * The kernel is bigger than 2MB so if you're using u-boot, update your environment according to wiki entry [2]. * With slower uSD you can see unknown-block-device while booting. Flash newer Qi from SHR [3] it is using rootwait instead of rootdelay=1. For u-boot increase rootdelay or use rootwait. * Sometimes (and only on some devices) it can show all white (looks like old WSoD, but it's without death). Suspend/Resume should fix this. * Vibrations are too weak. * See OE changelog [4] and SHR changelog [5].

Well... you practically answered my question with the second part of the answer... Not quite sure what you meant by merging bits of the old and new gdrm branches, but that certainly won't magically make the problem go away.

Maybe wrongly, but I assumed that you introduced that bug to the kms/drm part, so I thought to try to merge all non kms/drm from gdrm-for-merging with gdrm-2.6.32, that seemed to have stable kms/drm. Hi, gdrm-for-merging and gdrm-2.6.32 have both only kms/drm extra bits missing ing om-2.6.32 and both provide same functionality only the first is cleaned so there are no non kms/drm bits from gdrm-for-merging to merge to gdrm-2.6.32 om-2.6.32+2.6.32.13+gdrm-2.6.32 is uImage-2.6.32.13-oe1 om-2.6.32+2.6.32.13+gdrm-for-merging is uImage-2.6.32.13-oe2 http://build.shr-project.org/tests/mrmoku/2.6.32/images/om-gta02/ both works ok here, in 2nd is also fixed defconfig and pwm leds available again. see: http://git.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/commit/?id=98bed2876d7dd88cc25f1c70929f1d632b8f95ee http://git.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/commit/?id=14e1ed70361f7f5a5e54d93a606a7c8d53460b95 But I better wait for the maestro to do that, no rush...

Hi Martin, thanks for pointers. I tried the latest 2.6.32 SHR kernel, but it does not work very good for me. Probably because of KSM. I am still using old Xglamo which segfaults with this kernel and fbdev xorg prints: (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument (EE) FBDEV(0): mode initialization failed Fatal server error: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 Yes that's right, sorry I should warn you before trying, this kernel expects kms enabled xf86-video-glamo in userspace and disables old fbdev driver. Good thing is that kms enabled xf86-video-glamo in userspace is able to fallback to swrast when DRM kernel is not used. So in SHR we have the same userspace and used kernel decide how it will render. I can try upgrade to debian testing so that i can try xf86-video-glamo (or is there package for lenny somewhere?). No idea. Thomas White's kms branch is already merged to master, so package built from there with latest revision should be enough. http://git.openmoko.org/?p=xf86-video-glamo.git;a=summary You also need mesa and libdrm with Thomas's patches. http://git.bitwiz.org.uk/?p=libdrm.git;a=summary http://git.bitwiz.org.uk/?p=mesa.git;a=summary Regards, -- uin:136542059jid:martin.ja...@gmail.com Jansa Martin sip:jama...@voip.wengo.fr JaMa ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

You could change that icon's title - or even pixmap - regarding the currently displayed category. Right now you can use the DeskCat application to put the category launchers into categories, so you can configure it that way if you want. You just have to work around a small bug: when you create a category its launcher doesn't appear in deskcat until after deskcat is restarted. This is because the application list is loaded at startup. Another way might be to have a single DeskCat application which lets you choose the category to display on the desktop. This way will be slower because of the need to open a GUI application but not as slow as flipping between two categories. I might try to implement this in the future. Haven't tried it yet, but from what I'm reading, does it just move the .desktop file to subdir and then if I reinstall some package (and original .desktop file is restored) then I'll see both icons? Please also note that illume2 homescreen is said to be much more easier to customize/improve and shr-launcher/DeskCat features would be nice to have integrated there as SHR will move to illume2 as soon as it gets as usable as illume1 is now (hopefully soon as every new illume2 version is getting closer fast).

Re: [SHR-t] navit crashes with Reiseplanner maps while searching for a town

I downloaded an up-to-date binary OSM map and the search works now. So it would be great if you could push the new revision to the shr-u build. I already did when you first replied.. it's still building on buildhost I guess.. One more thing: The search only works when there is no german umlaut in the name of the city (for OSM maps that is). Please check your environment (locale set) and if it's ok you should probably report it upstream (this isn't type of bug which should be addressed on distro/OE level).

IMHO best way is to install both shrs on different partitions and switch to 2nd if something goes wrong. The current kernel has most debugging disabled and though I used the default briefly (modified it for more speed soon after!), it seemed quite fast as is. No.. it's not disabled anymore (after few users reported that they see more issues with nodebug/nopreemt kernel).

But on shr ML and trac there was few reports about not getting GPS lock or GSM channel (even with debug kernel) and at least 3 people said that they are having this problem more often with nodebug kernel. So I asked spaetz (maintainer of shr-t) and he said that we should rather revert back to debug (as it's slower but as some say more stable). If we want to test nodebug kernel, we should do it rather in shr-u and *after* testing use it in shr-t too.

Does your application depend on blkid directly or just transitively because of some other dependency? I've seen the same error just because some lib was pulling -L/usr/lib64 to linker cmd and there (on my buildhost) was other version of that library but built against blkid (and library in staging was not depending on that).
