The change is going to be permanent, as the current installation is unmaintained for about a year and poses severe security risks. Anyone who's interested in backups should contact gismo and/or roh, they will then provide snapshots of the requested information (e.g. cvs/svn/git repository) If somebody steps forwared to take the existing information and put all of the repositories + downloads online somewhere (read-only) for historic reference, I'd be more than happy to provide the respective account/data.

(summary of IRC discussion) Cleared old contacts from Freerunner: for i in `seq 1 1000`; do opimd-cli c delete $i; done And imported with /etc/phoneuid.conf loglevel=DEBUG Some contacts were truncated already when shown in SIM manager - and also then imported with missing digits.

ARH. That's the scream. But sorry, can't send you a patch. One show stopper, the rest can go as 'known issues': - importing contacts from SIM doesn't finish clean - some numbers are either not imported or are missing the last digit -> contacts unusable Known issues: - 'can't add contact' -message every now and then when opening contacts.

[QTMOKO] Dead UI
Hi there! qtmoko v19, debug -kernel, qi, freerunner Most of the things were fine until noon today, when something happened. No, I didn't install anything, didn't upgrade, update, change any config, nothing. Something just happened. qtmoko starts normally When I touch the touch screen, the screen light comes on, but no menu or icon reacts. AUX & POWER work as expected. hexdump -C /dev/input/event1 showed that touch is recognized, so it shouldn't be hardware. Being able to run Debian normally confirms this. Have been rebooting wishing this'd disappear, but no. Ran apt-get dist-upgrade and dpkg-reconfigure -a with no success. Someone suggested that I should recalibrate the screen - how do I start the calibration software from command line? Someone suggested I should try xev. How do I start X from command line? Someone, please help... :/ r -- | risto h. kurppa | risto at kurppa dot fi | http://risto.kurppa.fi ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

[QTMOKO] - list of questions from a new user..
Hi there! After massive frustration with an unnamed distro I decided to give qtmoko a try. And I'm very impressed, you can see that it has been developed with big money at some stage. Too bad qtopia is discontinued and there hasn't been a strong community around it: the future doesn't look too bright in that sector either.. However I strongly suggest everyone even a bit unsure about their current distibution to give qtmoko a try. It's far ahead of all others in terms of speed, looks, usability, features etc etc. So here are some questions I'd like to be answered to be able to better use, understand and maybe also in some ways contribute to qtmoko. How to export the SMS's qtmoko moved from SMS to a sane format.. say txt file or whatever.. Is there a plan to make qtmoko NOT touch the SMS's on the SIM..? Big fail to remove all SMS's from SIM without warning the user.. Is qtmoko using the latest alsastate files - What I heard was very silent and the other end didn't hear a thing.. Who's developing qtmoko? Are the FSO-based and debian based developed at the same time? How do v18 and v19 compare? Why v18 is 'preferred download' at sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtmoko/files/)? Why is the access to qtmoko bugtracker at http://bugs.qtmoko.org/login_page.php for registered users only? I apt-get upgrade, do I get to v19 from v18? Is the kernel provided at sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtmoko/files/) with or without DEBUG ie. is it the 'new, fast' or 'older, not so fast'? Where is the qtmoko community? Openmoko-community mailing list? This channel? Other places? Blogs, forums? Thanks for the answers! I hope someone to be able to encourage me of the future of qtmoko.. r -- | risto h. kurppa | risto at kurppa dot fi | http://risto.kurppa.fi ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I tried to have a look at it but I have some issues with SSH on my SHR so I'll test it later. However it looks interesting to me. How hard would it be to implement an 'auto gpx converter' that'd convert unconverted tracks to GPX every time one presses stop or split?

Re: TangoGPS font size for speed indicator
As there are now many Tangogps patches that seem to struggle to get to the official tangogps - would it be possible to collect them all on a single (wiki?) page?

Wikireader & community
Hi! Now, after Wikireader's been released, I'd like to hear Openmoko to share their thoughts about the community aspects of Wikireader. Are you planning to encourage the creation of a devel/user community around Wikireader? If yes, then What are the tech specs? We don't even know the dimensions of the device. Who's the person at OM responsible for communicating with the community? Where to discuss Wikireader? What's the process to gain access to main repository? Where to report bugs? Where to submit patches? Where will the documentation be available/written to? What kind of contribution would you like to see from the community? What will you do to enable the community to do what you want it to do? 'It'll all come later' just won't work this time.. 'We really don't have plans yet' works better :) If you seriously plan to benefit from the community, I think you should keep the buzz up and start working WITH the community. http://www.artofcommunityonline.org/ http://aseigo.blogspot.com/2009/01/building-community-around-your-foss.html If no, then I wish you all the best.

I do agree that not everyone are interested in both products, but given the traffic we have, now that om2009 is not existing & discussed, SHR is discussed on other mailing lists so it's mostly qt/QT/Qt/similar discussion, I think there's still room for wikireader threads here :) (to me it looks like that the # of mails on -community list has went down a lot).

Re: WikiReader
http://code.google.com/p/wikipediardware/ tells us: The project's goal is to provide a bunch of software: * a set of bootloaders which load a small kernel image from SD card and execute it. * wiki-lib, a library which contains all the application's logic * gui-lib, a very thin layer to provide glyph rendering and font file parsing * some simulators (Qt/Cocoa/ncurses) which emulate the hardware to make development easy * the 'kernel' code which is only a small wrapper around the hardware and uses wiki-lib and gui-lib * host based tools to generate the content from Wikipedia sources (indexing, font file generation, ...) Especially I'm interested in the first one - the kernel image is loaded from SD -> to me it sound's like a hackable device. r -- | risto h. kurppa | risto at kurppa dot fi | http://risto.kurppa.fi ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: Paroli Theme/UI proposals
About the information density & 4 lines text too small - Why not use the full 5 blocks (= 60% of the screen area) of space to show information when you select one of the menu items. It's not much use to show 'Telephony, messaging, connectivity and config' texts, if you've clicked on 'people'. The icons on the left are enough to indicate me what happens when I click one of them, especially after seeing the texts in the home/main view for a day or two. -> Idea 1: convert the icon buttons on left to tabs that use, when clicked, the whole 60% of the screen to be able to show a lot more information. PROPOSAL A: Now with this new space you can show the info and the additional 5 menu buttons at the same time. PROPOSAL B: At the home view, clicking the People -button would show the five additional buttons like it does now - and then second click would show the information that's now shown clicking the small 'i' -button. And one click more would take us to the home screen. I think the telephony, messaging, people, connectivity, config texts are not really needed for a long time, people will memorize them in a day -> use the space for something more important.

HOWTO: Sharing SHR-U GPRS to *buntu laptop
Hi! I got some help at irc setting things up so I thougt I'd share it with you. I'm writing this on Konqueror on my eeepc in a moving train using the GPRS connection of Freerunner. So sharing GPRS from FR to *buntu, here we go: 1) make sure your GPRS on FR works. 2) on fr run opkg install iptables iptables-utils kernel-module-ipt-masquerade kernel-module-iptable-nat 3) create firewall.sh on freerunner, see http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Tethering#Turning_your_FreeRunner_into_a_Network_Address_Translation_.28NAT.29_gateway 4) on *buntu, configure the GUI network manager to understand FR. I run Kubuntu Karmic Netbook remix with these settings: interface: eth2 ip: 192.168.0.202 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.200 dns: grap an IP address from FR's /etc/resolv.conf when using GPRS (=this is your service provider's dns..) 5) create a script like this on desktop: sudo route add default gw 192.168.0.202 sudo echo "nameserver 62.241.198.246" >> /etc/resolv.conf sudo echo "nameserver 62.241.198.245" >> /etc/resolv.conf Change the nameserver ip addresses to the addresses at /etc/resolv.conf on Freerunner Then: a) start GPRS b) connect USB c) run firewall.sh on freerunner d) run the other script on desktop DONE! I don't know why do I have to add the nameservers manually (why KDE doesn't do it..) or how to add the route automatically.. anyway, happy to surf now on laptop w. fr :) r ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Hi! 1) install latest SHR unstable ( 2) upgrade) 2) install omgps -> now when you try to get a fix with only omgps (using ublox), it works in a reasonable time (30-50s or so) But trying to find satellites with the SHR settings -> Position it's hopeless.

And the same goes with Tangogps (using FSO) - no fix.. Removing AGPS data - is there a rule the visibility of the button follows? Sometimes it's there when I start the position, sometimes it's gone.

Hi David! Thanks a lot for your work! Looking forward to see the simple tool up & running! Some comments inline.

Btw you all three (openbmap, cellhunter, opencellid) devels are warmly welcome to join FOSS-GPS -mailing list (http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/foss-gps) - I'd like to see discussion about the algorithms you use to calculate the position of the cells. It must be something else than just the average... As a used I'd like to know it but also I think there's some optimization to be done in the field. If OpenBMap uses also speed & GPS precision information & alt in the calculation, I'd like to see the algorithm.. r -- | risto h. kurppa | risto at kurppa dot fi | http://risto.kurppa.fi ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Didn't find specs to tell what data it sends (didn't check the source). I think alt, speed and GPS precision etc information can be useful in calculating the position of the cells. > As a reminder, we are open to any suggestion on how to imprement the > API, features, missing fields, etc. Please add sopport for at least alt, speed, heading, hdop, vdop, pdop, signal strength. If the projects plan to share their data, all projects should gather the same (full!) data of the cells to reach the highest possible precision. Coverage is something you'll be able to reach by everyone focusing on their own projects AND sharing the data. I must say I like opencellID API: it has clear addresses how to put/get cell information or GPS location. THis is something where openbmap is behind. And if OpenCellID has a nice api, it's good, but if I see that it doesn't use speed nor hdop/vdop/alt in calculating the location I trust openbmap more - but it's lacking the proper API. -> work for both of you to do. Focus on it, not in rhetorics & communication issues. Just make your project better than the other one is and share the data.

Re: cellhunter - openbmap - opencellid revisited... (was Re: CellHunter is moving to a new server)
I have no idea what's going on between you people but: Now that I had a little thought, I really don't care how many copies of the database we have. All I care about is that a) there's a way to use the data (=a client capable to locate me based on the GSM cells around me) b) the client uses the database with most cells. -> as long as all three projects have proper API's to import/export data and they do it from the other 2 projects things work. It kind of makes sense if the projects use different ways to collect the data. One has it as a competition, one uses some clients to collect the data, another uses other clients and projects. And in the end they all benefit from the work of others. Just some points for you to discuss: a) common api or data format to import/export b) common api to submit cells r - goes out to find some cells (no, not really, I'll watch an episode of CSI :) -- | risto h. kurppa | risto at kurppa dot fi | http://risto.kurppa.fi ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

The more data a service has, the more reliable & usable it is for a user (if there were applications capable of using any of the services to do the location). So if all three services would sync their info daily/weekly with having some of their own extra fields I'd be happy as they all would benefit from each other and they all would have the same sources to do the locationing the only difference being the algorithms.

About the amount of cells, could someone explain me how many cells (with some kind of location information) cellhunter knows: http://ch.omoco.de/cellhunter/images/cellhunter_statistic_all.png explained here: http://ch.omoco.de/cellhunter/?hideintro=1&orderby=&beginat= 7milj (don't know where I got it from.. sorry for misleading..) is the number of ALL submits but to me it looks like that the no of cells is around 141371 (NCG) + 7572 (OCnG) = 148 943 cells. The rest are just more gps information for a single cell. Am I wrong?

AFAIK, CellHunter is a competition (teams/individuals against each other) on collecting cells as OpenBmap&OpenCellID - well, you just collect the cells. AFAIK, OpenBmap is told to import data from other projects AFAIK, OpenBmap was started because of different views about important data to collect between OpenCellID and OpenBMap devels. To me the whole thing is a big mess. Do we really need three projects. Let me bet, they all are now working on tools to use their own data to find the position of a phone, right? 1) if OpenBMap imports from other projects, why it's missing the 7milj cellhunter cells? 2) AFAIK There are no tools to benefit from the collected data yet 3) Can't see a OpenCellID client for Freerunner I earlier tried CellHunter, didn't work. For me OpenBmap is just easiest to use. Which doesn't necessarily make it the best one of these three to contribute to. They call the diversity a richness of Open Source.
