from buildhost/daily/freerunner/ I get zip out of the same keyboard that
worked with FSO M2.

I tried connecting the USB keyboard after my FreeRunner was connected to
my laptop (first: FR connected to laptop, unplug, plug keyboard to FR)
and also have the USB keyboard connected on boot (first: FR is off,
connect keyboard, power on FR).

Not having pand in that devel-image really made things more difficult to
test. I guess I could try getting FR to use wifi and ssh from my
computer to see what's going on, but using bluetooth is just easier to
set up.

Re: USB keyboards silent in terminal (FSO)

2008-08-19 Thread Joel Newkirk
I've gotten a few keyboards to work successfully in 2008.08,
and a few would not work.  One that would not work was no
surprise to me - a Dell keyboard with a builtin USB hub -
the keyboard and volume knob appear as individual USB
devices, requiring an internal hub in the keyboard.  That
particular keyboard, unlike most, actually tells me on the
bottom label that it requires 1.5A, which is why I was
unsurprised.  I don't know what current the Freerunner is
capable of supplying to the USB port, but I'd be surprised
if it could pump out 1.5A... (and even if it could it seems
unlikely to last more than an hour or so ;)

With 2008.08 when I plug in any simple (IE single USB
device, no extraneous lighted keys) keyboard it is
functional, and the onscreen keyboard silently goes away as
long as it's plugged in.  I'm awaiting a powerable USB hub I
ordered to test if that permits the more complex keyboard to
work as well.

Re: USB keyboards silent in terminal (FSO)

2008-08-10 Thread Peter Trapp
Von: Fredrik Wendt
 I bought a USB gender changer (5€) and today I've played with it to see
 what the smartphone's capable of. I really only have one goal and that
 is to avoid having to buy a BT keyboard for faster input in the
 terminal.
 
 I've been able to connect two keyboards, they light up but doesn't
 work in the terminal (FSO). Is there something I can do to enable
 input from these external devices?
 

snip several lines

Do you want to use a USB keyboard with your FR? I found in the community ML 
following answer, but I have not tested though...


In [1] Michael Sheldon said:

I am, it's pretty simple, just run:

echo host  /sys/devices/platform/s3c2410-ohci/usb_mode
echo 1  /sys/devices/platform/neo1973-pm-host.0/hostmode

  This'll put the Freerunner in to powered USB host mode, then just plug 
in the keyboard and it'll work. Personally I've made a .desktop file to 
switch into and out of host mode. To switch back to unpowered device 
mode just run:

echo device  /sys/devices/platform/s3c2410-ohci/usb_mode
echo 0  /sys/devices/platform/neo1973-pm-host.0/hostmode

Well, that's the first basic step (which I did of course) - to setup the
FR in host mode but that basic step doesn't make HID keyboards/devices
work in X which is what I'm after.

Thanks anyway. :)

Can't tell, my phone's completely dead after it drained the battery
