Problem in Compiling Kernel Module for Openmoko

2009-02-19 Thread Sincere Trout
Dear Sir,

I am trying to compile a kernel module to run on openmoko, and in this regard I 
downloaded the provided toolchain and the kernel from 
http://git.openmoko.org/?p=kernel.git;a=summary

The problem is that the downloaded kernel from 
http://git.openmoko.org/?p=kernel.git;a=summary does not has the file 
gta02_defconfig where as this instruction is given on the site:
You also need to cp ./arch/arm/configs/gta02_defconfig .config before building


However I used another file in the same directory i.e. 
./arch/arm/configs/gta02_micro_defconfig however when I say ./build . then this 
output appears:

scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/arm/Kconfig

scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/arm/Kconfig
  CHK include/linux/version.h
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: `echo 2.6.29-GTA02_(no-mokodev  
include/config/kernel.release'
make[1]: *** [include/config/kernel.release] Error 2
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
make: INTERNAL: Exiting with 17 jobserver tokens available; should be 16!

Please help me I am stuck in this problem for 2 days, and I am getting 
desperate. I would be really grateful.

Regards,
Waqar Ali

Hi there!

I think this happens when you're not in a valid branch!

Type git-branch and you'll notice it.

Please switch to the andy tracking branch and build again.

Would a kernel FAQ be useful? I'll check the wiki tomorrow to see what
we have there ...  I just don't remember now.

Perhaps we should also modify the build script to warn about this
fact. It's a FAQ now...

Nelson.-

Solar Moko Idea

2009-02-19 Thread Paul
Has anyone given any thought about embedding a solar panel into the back
cover of the OpenMoko devices?

I'm certain other modifications are necessary.

This is an area I am interested in helping out with.  Anyone have expertise
in this area to see if this is even doable?

Thanks.

Hi Paul!

Thanks, but this is all about the Neo Freerunner (GTA02), not about the 
Neo 1973 (GTA01). At least as far as I can tell.

Torsten

I suspect a cell this small will only begin to be practical if 40%
efficient cells ever appear.

The cell would need to be isolated from the rest of the phone to keep
the battery cool. If the battery gets warmed up from proximity with
the cell, it will be too hot to be safely charged.

Something like this would be cool...but I agree that it probably would not
be enough current to keep it charged.

Neo Freerunner on eBay

2009-02-19 Thread Cory Wright
Hi,

Last year I received a Neo Freerunner to review for a magazine.  I
used the Freerunner enough to evaluate it for the article, and haven't
touched it since, so I've put it for sale on eBay and started the
bidding at $0.99.  Here's a short URL to the auction:

  http://tr.im/gta02

It's in perfect condition, no scratches, and was never used on a daily
basis.  The auction also includes two 2GB MicroSD cards that I bought
to test booting multiple distributions from SD.  Everything that came
with the Freerunner is included in the box.  I've posted a few
pictures of it on the auction as well, so you can zoom in and see the
device up close.

Rather than just throwing out some random price I figured it would be
better to put it up for auction and let the market decide what its
worth.  Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions.

Sorry for the advertisement, but I thought someone here might be
looking for a Freerunner at a discount.

Cory

2009-02-19 Thread Jon 'maddog' Hall
Well, in my day when we received a review unit we returned it to the
company that sent it to us after the review was done, but I guess times
have changed.

I decided to bid on this unit, so I bid the minimum, $1.04, but I was
outbid by someone else.  I guess I don't want to bid any higher, since I
do not want to see someone gain from something they did not pay for, and
I too would like to see a deserving Openmoko developer get it for the
least amount of money they can.

The Freerunner was most of the payment for writing the article.  It
certainly wasn't something I got for free, in fact, I lost money on
it.

Thanks for your bid.
