Have you looked here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Qtopia_on_FreeRunner Yes, of course. But the page doesn't say much beyond the installation process. But then the questions begin: How to get suspend working? How to install language packages? (The Wiki page mentions that English and German are supported out of the box, but the only option I have in the language settings is American.) Where to store music files so that the media player recognizes them? How to connect to the internet without plugging the phone into a desktop machine? What is possible on the Openmoko, what is not yet implemented? In the meantime I found out some of the questions by try and error. But there must be a handbook or something.

Re: Qtopia on Freerunner: Firsts steps of a newbee
I only can answer a pair of questions. How to get suspend working? Suspend did work for me. Where to store music files so that the media player recognizes them? /media/card . For me, that was the kernel partition, so I had little space to store songs. I suppose this could be solved editing /etc/fstab. Anyway, I think many of these topics should be addressed at Qtopia site. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Qtopia on Freerunner: Firsts steps of a newbee
Hello World, This is my first post here. How to get suspend working? Suspend did work for me. Suspend is somehow working. If you boot the phone with no power supply, suspend will NOT work. But, after you boot, you should connect the phone to a power source (2 seconds are enough), then... suspend will start to work. At least, this is the case with my FreeRunner. Also, check the Power Management settings from the Qtopia menu. I managed to survive on battery for one day and a half, with very little phone calls and no playing with the phone, and of course with suspend working.

Re: Qtopia on Freerunner: Firsts steps of a newbee
Dear Sven, Everybody sincerely regrets that there are only three pages in : http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Category:Qtopia I suspect the reason is simply that a majority of active wiki editors use other distributions. Having a fresh view about what is missing from the wiki is always a one-time opportunity. Please seize it, establish an account and help write the missing manual: http://wiki.openmoko.org/index.php?title=Special:Userlogintype=signupreturnto=Qtopia_on_FreeRunner Thanks in advance for sharing your findings, Minh ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Can a documentation be really so poor? I tend to think I'm missing something really obvious, which is clear to all others but me. I believe there must be some kind of handbook, maybe one that is shipped together with a device with a pre-installed Qtopia. But I cannot find anything like that.

Welcome to open source :) ... or more to the point, the open source edition of Qtopia. I imagine the full version has smb/cifs and usb mass storage out of the box but with this version you have to use you imagination a bit. Being linux, transfer methods vary from person to person. I use scp/sftp to transfer to /media/card/audio. I have a fat32 formatted, 'known to work' sd card installed. I'm not quite sure what's up with yours though. Once you _have_ got something across, it will automatically appear within the media browser. I read /media/card somewhere (I'd bet the wiki), transfered, tried and it worked. I imagine most people have a similar experience hence no elaboration on how to actually transfer the files etc. For convenience, KDE supports fish:// for drag and drop functionality with ssh. I think filezilla supports sftp ... if not, I'm sure there are plenty of gui apps available. You'd simply need to connect to your phone's IP address. As someone stated before, the wiki would definately benefit from your experience once you figure out the best method, as it's hard for some of us to see it from certain perspectives. Hope that helps.
