Doom Updates in Progress -- Request from Distribution Maintainers
Hello Everyone -- I've been off the radar for a while, decided to stop back in and noticed that Doom doesn't seem to run anymore in its old packaged version from last year. Just like to say, I'm on it. I've installed the SHR image from May 09, that is where i'm starting, as I believe thats the latest SHR-Testing. Are there other distributions that need attention? I'd like to hit majority users first.. I assume that is SHR and Om2009? (Are there people running Om2009?). I'd like to ask the Distribution maintainers,( those who are left? Just SHR now?) For some help putting Doom in the distro specific repos. That way everyone can opkg from a tested distro specific places and install. Its not necessary but would be nice. -Scott -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Doom-Updates-in-Progress-Request-from-Distribution-Maintainers-tp3744923p3744923.html Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

There must be some other things influencing this. I have NEVER had an Echo issue. I have Revision A5 and have used pretty much every distro. Possibly, SIM Card and Service Provider nuances?

Re: [FSO][M4] DOOM Running slow.
I haven't had a chance to install Debian and test Doom yet. I can say that I had to use special patched binary of XGlamo for the scaling of the touchscreen to work. If the game is running, but you can do anything (i.e. demo is running) then I would assume that the touchscreen is not reporting valid x,y coordinates. So I would say you may be subject to bug #1244 . Not sure if someone has patched this for debian's xglamo package. Let me know if this helps? We can add some debug output and test on your system if you'd like. (That way we could see for sure what reported x,y values are being used.

[FSO][M4] DOOM Running slow.
I've noticed extremely slow performance while running Doom on FSO M4. I tracked it down to the accelerometer code. (I turned off accel control in the opendoom.cfg file and that fixed the speed issue). The code basically opens /dev/event3 and reads from this. Should I be approaching the accelerometer interface differently?? It is running horribly slow, can anyone else confirm this? I've also noticed running from desktop on the phone is also very slow with accel turned off as well. When running a similar startup script from ssh, it runs full speed (accel still turned off). Is there anything obvious here regarding the way FSO operates that could cause this? I'd like to discover the cause and implement a solution quickly.

The deadzone defines the size of the area surrounding the new found center. Once outside of this region, track the distance from the outside of the deadzone and multiply scale factor. Thats about the jist. If you want to move around more, then I'd suggest opening up the window on both axis (test these independently. And reduce the sensitivity.

Re: DOOM For Neo Freerunner / 1973
- The virtual button concept is a good one, I can expose everything to the CFG and let you define size and position. - Yeah, I noticed that late into the project, I am planning on making a Time/Data Stamped Save Name automatically. - Eventually I'd like to DOOM to be compliant with DBUS interface, so maybe this can be cleanly taken care of along with other nuances.

I can assure you it is not supposed to be slow. I have an SD distro that is loaded to the teeth (OM2008-update). And a lean fresh NAND install of OM2009 (I have noticed the lean install runs Doom quite quickly.) Let's do some investigation.

Re: DOOM For Neo Freerunner / 1973
Fox -- Thanks for the information. I will install Debian this week and do some testing. Two things come to mind regarding your issues. #1 ) The sound hanging is due to the fact that the Doom Engine did not properly initialize the sound. So it hangs in the end when trying to exit (I get this periodically with my OM2008 distro depending on the state of the sound card (sometimes this happens after a suspend and resume). Is there a fundamental difference with Sound drivers between Debian and other OM Distros? #2 ) The touchscreen being dead is probably because the X,Y Coordinates are either A) Being reported differently than the other systems or B) There is still a Scaling/Rotation issues BUG #1244 that plagued the other distros (Until recently, XGlamo patched binary (for scaling) available on the doom wiki) I will do some testing and see what Debian is reporting for Touchscreen coordinates. Also, Does Debian have a method for rotating/scaling screen??? Thanks for your feedback!

Re: DOOM For Neo Freerunner / 1973
David, I am looking into just exposing the cheats as booleans in the CFG file. This will take me a few days to get around to it. For the time being you could go usb keyboard? Then save a game (doesn't it remember?) Speaking of saved games, I will be slapping in a time/date stamped save game names, (since we can't type in our own!)

As Far as Touchscreen is concerned. There is still a little "bounce" going on and i should have made the menu enter key a little bigger. Basically I need to draw a diagram, (I will tonight) but for now. During Game and Menu mode you have the upper right corner, that is equivalent to 'esc' key on the original game, (It will toggle menu/game modes). Menu Mode: Menu Enter is the Center of the screen. Up is a longer the upper center border. Down is lower center border Left - Left border Rt - Right border Game Mode: Shoot -- Bottom Left Corner Open Door -- Upper Right Corner Change Weapon -- Between Shooting/Opening Upper Border -- Run Toggle (Only needed for Non-Accelerometer config) The rest of the screen is open slate for Finger-Tipping (If thats activated) or swipe strafing. (Although you can hold down the AUX button and tip for strafing as well) I hope this helps, I will get some decent sketches posted. I am wide open to any suggestions for improvements. Have Fun!

Re: DOOM For Neo Freerunner / 1973
Alright, There is now a new package 0.1.1 available. http://opendoom.googlecode.com/files/opendoom_0.1.1_armv4t.ipk Here. This includes the original Doom1 Shareware. Also, I'd like to ask anyone interested in playing to check out the user interface docs http://unsyncopated.com/BrainSolvent/Doom Port here . As I've spent a good chunk of time trying to get the most out of our limited interface. This includes things like on-the-fly accelerometer "taring" and the such, you should be able to play this game in just about any position. Also. I'd like to hear from any New 1973 owners, and get some feedback on the Finger-Tipping interface. (I have some ideas for improvements in this area. But Would really like some user feedback!

Here is the http://opendoom.googlecode.com/files/opendoom_0.1_armv4t.ipk ipkg file. I've implemented a full touch screen only interface for you Neo 1973 guys out there! Please see Finger-Tippng on wiki. (There is also a video demo). And of course I can't forget the rest of us who have a sense of gravity! (Yes, you can strafe).

Re: Back to the basics: improving user experience
I would love to see the rotation/scaling bugs finished up Bug #1244. It has evolved as far as symptoms, both scaling to low res 320x240 and rotation yield incorrect x,y coordinates. (Although going through tslib directly works fine, showing that it is glamo issue) Would be nice to have this year + issue laid to rest, that would open the doors to some of our game developers and add to the overall functionality of the gui interfaces being created. There have been two patches made available, one that fixes rotation and one that independantly fixes scaling, but I havnt seen an overall solution, or at least havn't seen the solution show up in the repo.

Re: Duke Nukem 3D on Openmoko Neo
There is a patch available for glamo.c, it doesn't appear to be implemented in any of the current packages, I've asked several times if someone had already updated a package with the patch. No response so far.. I am 85% finished with my mokobuild. That is my first priority... If someone else has already compiled with patch, by all means.. where is it?

Fantastic Experience
Hello All -- I'd like to pipe in with my New Freerunner experiences thus far. I have had my phone for 2 weeks. I loaded up OM2008.8-update. Here is the list : Solid GSM (Sending and Receiving). No Echo, clear calls, full bars. My SIM Card contact list imported automatically. SMS, Solid. Wifi, also works great. GPS works. 60 second TTFF and 40 second TTFF w/ external antenna (This is without the capacitor fix) microSd works. Suspend/Resume .. solid (minus the GUI setting having no effect. but I don't care, I just suspend manually with the power button when I'm not using it). I made a usb cable, so now my phone can receive standard USB devices.. this opens many doors. When I was shopping for a mobile computer/phone, I scraped the planet for something open and hackable. What I found was nice machines with propriety software that goes through a Telecom company, which is then purposely crippled and released for public consumption. Most of the crippling process is based on a Business model that "nickels and dimes" us to death for services and features that (I believe) we should already have. In the end, the only answer for me was to by the GTA02. I'd like to say, that I'm here to stay, "on the band wagon", lets kick some ass...

Questions regarding shell/startup scripts
Hey guys -- Does anyone's resolv.conf get stomped on every time the machine is rebooted? I have been adding my nameservers by hand.. Just wondering if there is a good reason for this? Also, Where should I go to force BASH as my default shell, and/or how do i get an ASH init script that loads everytime I open a terminal. (If I could do this, I'd just automate the resolv.conf stuffer.) Thanks!

DOOM OpenMoko Port
I've just witnessed DOOM on my Freerunner. I spent a few hours this evening compiling a SDL port for DOOM, it let me tell you it looks great. I'd like to thank everyone involved for giving me the opportunity to exploit this machine (which is also a phone). I'll be working on a Acc. UI, similar to the Duke3d port. (Thanks to the person who ported Duke3d to inspire me today to do the same with DOOM, this just made my week) -Scott -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/DOOM-OpenMoko-Port-tp950897p950897.html Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
