Hi, A few questions about USB connectivity (sorry if the answers are already somwhere, but I a am very newly interested in this project).
What is already working for the USB connection and what should be delopped? 1 - Is it possible to connect the phone to a computer host and pretend that "we are a standard USB memory key", and automaticly mount a new file system on the host without needing to install a very specific driver on it ? 2 - Is it possible to pretend to the host that the phone is a standard USB/ethernet adaptator (like a Belkin adaptator), and automaticly connect the PC and the phone on a private IP based network ? 3 - Is it possible to connect the phone to a real ethernet network (hub), via a real USB/ethernet adaptator (Belkin for example) ? Is there somewhere documentation on what already exists with USB connection to a host (wiki page) ? Is there an other possibility to connect the phone to an IP based network, except by the USB connection (like IP above blue tooth ? ) Of course, the connection of the phone to a network is crucial : SSH, FTP, and a lot of nice things: X11 on an external XWindow server :-) , VNC :-) , voip :-) ... I just decover Openmoko, and it is exactly what I was dreaming for the past few years. I already have two cellular phones running linux, but, (strangely), they are completly closed. My phone operator download a new software release from time to time on them, but I have no documentation, no possibility to develop my own packages, no comunity working on them, ... Too bad that this project is somewhat now a little late and will be hard to have great impact on the mass market. But Openmoko seems exactly what was desesperaly needed for us, the hackers. /larpoux _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
