That would certainly prevent mooing.  If the accelerometers don't work,
you should still be able to test the audio parts by pressing the cow
picture on the screen :)

I think there might still be some locking problems lurking in the
kernel parts of the accelerometer stuff.  For me, re-starting
OpenMooCow almost always makes it work the second time.

Strange. I must have done something wrong, this time both
version 0.2-r2 and version 0.3 moos, as soon as I stop
speech-dispatcher.

The accelerometers don't work though. hexdump /dev/input/event2
gets me changing output as I turn the phone around. event3 is
dead, perhaps that is the problem?

I have a 2.6.24 kernel, as SHR doen't work well with 2.6.28 yet.

Previous meaning version 0.2?  All the previous versions are available
from my site:
http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~taw27/openmoko/openmoocow/
- would you be able to check version 0.2 again to be sure?  This is
particularly puzzling because the audio parts of the program haven't

My SHR is "unable to open audio". But the older moocow worked with
the same setup.  I can stop speech-dispatcher, but it doesn't help.
There is no snd-pcm-oss module to load, bt the previous moocow didn't
need that.

speech-dispatcher on 2008.9 also killed all audio (phone, mplayer, sms
beeps, ...) after suspend/resume.  Was ok before the first suspend.

Yeah... This seems to work here also. But anyone has an idea what speech-
dispatcher does? Don't we need it? The chance is rather high that it is more 
useful than openmoocow :D

No offence... I love openmoocow!

/etc/init.d/speech-dispatcher stop was the right solution for me,

This sounds odd.  OpenMooCow uses SDL for all the audio work, and the
"No available audio device" part of that messages comes from SDL itself.
So this could indicate a problem with SDL or something lower-level.

I've seen audio break before due to a mismatch of kernel modules.  Does
audio work in any other programs for you?

Hi,

Thanks for the graphics improvement ;-), I think it was necessary.
Works fine on SHR, just one thing I have to change the .desktop and add a
category (for example "Applications"), in order to have the shortcut

OpenMooCow 0.3

2008-12-18 Thread Thomas White
OpenMooCow 0.3 is now available:
http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~taw27/openmoko/openmoocow/

Changes since version 0.2 are:

- My finest "programmer art" has been banished to a suitable place,
namely the fiery depths of Hades.  It's been replaced with some much
better graphics from openclipart.org.  It's a public domain image, but I
thought I'd give a credit to user "bsantos" who created the picture.

- Disables the accelerometer threshold while it's running.  This makes
the cow a lot more responsive.  Your old threshold will be restored
on exit, unless the threshold value has been changed from zero since
MooCow started, in which case it won't restore the old one.

- Ready for kernel 2.6.28 - aware of the new sysfs paths.

- Thinkpad HDAPS support from Joachim Breitner has been merged in.
