Afaik the firmware in question won't meet the FSF free software
definition or OSI open source definition since you don't have a license
that lets you share and change it legally. If you want free software
firmware that runs on gta02 you can take a look at osmocombb.

 Isn't the situation the same with osmocombb as well?

 Based on what is written here:
 http://bb.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/LegalAspects#Usingmodifiedphonesoncarriernetworks
 can osmocombb considered free software in FSF's or OSI's definition?
 What is not clear for me is that can a software be FSF/OSI free but
 illegal to use?

Afaik you can use it legally if you connect it directly to your own base
station.

it is widely known that 240x320 mode on freerunner has odd

mencoder -really-quiet -oac pcm -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=ffvhuff -vf 
eq2=1:1:0:1:1.19:1.19:1.44 -vf scale=320:240,rotate=1 -o - $@ | ffmpeg2theora

 What is illegal in it?

I think in general you need a license to transmit anything.

Afaik certified GSM phones have been exempted from this
requirement. However, if you modify your phone then you need to
re-certify it. This can cost a bit more than you can afford.

Not really unless you replace the non-free GSM stack with something like

Two requests:

- Please, don't top-post (don't put your reply at the top of the
message you're replying to), it makes it harder to see what you are
replying to. To use a popular signature line:

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?

- Don't change the subject of the mail(s) you are replying to. It
makes it harder to follow conversations.

And good luck on your OSM-party!

 Or, I using Qi, put a 'noboot' file in the NAND to force booting into SD.

 which then would not be necessary as Qi boots from SD first..

Also qi can not read files from your jffs2/ubifs filesystem on nand.

openmoko works as an usb keyboard now

2011-11-04 Thread Timo Juhani Lindfors
Hi,

2.6.39 includes g_hid.ko that can be used to make the system appear as a
usb keyboard to some usb host. It seems this is a platform driver but no
platform in linux includes it.

http://lindi.iki.fi/lindi/git/linux-hid-gadget.git/

is a fork of g_hid that works as an out-of-tree module and not a
platform driver. I tested this with the unofficial
linux-image-2.6.39-gta02-gta02 2.6.39-1gta021 package from

http://lindi.iki.fi/lindi/openmoko/linux-2.6-gta02/

and it works! From /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

...

 In Debian you should simply install fso-gta02 package. It has dependencies to

Sounds good that it conflicts with fso-config-gta02. I always hated
that I get the full FSO stack if I only want the udev rules..

Where are the udev rules nowadays?

Re: xserver-xorg uses 100% CPU with Debian wheezy/sid

Niccolo Rigacci nicc...@rigacci.org writes:
 When I start X everything seems fine, but as I touch the screen 
 the CPU usage by the X process, reaches 100%.

This is a known issue I think.

 X is starting on defaults, no xorg.conf file.

How did you install the system? install.sh creates an xorg.conf that
does not use tslib.

 I'm running Debian wheezy/sid on the OpenMoko GTA02, with the 
 following packages:

 linux-image-2.6.34-openmoko-gta02 20101212.git049b71de-2
 libts-0.0-0   1.0-9
 xserver-xorg-core 2:1.11.1.901-2
 xserver-xorg-input-tslib  0.0.6-7+b1
 xserver-xorg-input-evdev  1:2.6.0-2+b2
 udev  172-1
 hal   0.5.14-7

I think the problem is that both tslib and evdev drivers try to read the
touchscreen.

 BTW: what is armhf? Never heard that...

  A lot of modern ARM boards and devices ship with a floating-point unit

   it.

   A new ARM port requiring the presence of a FPU would help squeeze the
   most performance juice out of hardware with a FPU.
