A handful of applications want this. nothing to do with illume. this is x. apps draw their own window contents and handle their own window even inputs. the app would need to rotate its own draws and translate all input even co-ordinates. I was thinking of a window manager plugin that applies rotation when the window is activated. Compiz can apply many of its effects selectively according to application (window name?) so I'm guessing wildly that calling an xrandr setting by name on change of active window should be possible. Then again I know nothing abut the internals of window managers... that would require xevie (so every mouse event go through the compositor and it can try translate (rotate them), so you will add more latency to mouse events), and compositing (which will slow down rendering as all rendering now has to happen to a backing pixmap) AND you will not have accelerated rotates/transforms as xrender is unaccelerated on glamo - so your output will become nice and slow... really slow. as such you could selectively rotate thew WHOLE screen if a particular window is focused, but e has no such code - a module could be written that does just that. but then the keyboard, top-bar etc. will also rotate. -- - Codito, ergo sum - I code, therefore I am -- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler)[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- - Atilla Filiz Eindhoven University of Technology Embedded Systems, Master's Programme ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Moreover, even provided zhone is the only app using the GSM resource, are you sure that gsm0710muxd will power-cycle the modem? Yes. Shutting down the resource will shut down gsm0710muxd, which in effect, turns off the modem. I'll try to provide the logs where after the Zhone restart %CSTAT never comes but it's still possible to read the information from SIM. In fact, as a quick work-around i added activation of SimReady to the network registration event. What i see every time i reboot zhone+frameworkd+gsm0710muxd is that right after the registration zhone receives the SimReady signal and tries to read the Phonebook. Not all entries are read, however as the sim is not really ready yet. After some time %CSTAT finally comes and zhone rereads the book, now with all entries present. I think i saw the same behaviour using some simple (probably Nokia) cellphone.

I will attach the full logs later to an appropriate ticket. I don't know how what i see is possible, but if it is what it seems to be, then it's a serious bug that can influence anything. Why is muxing so hard?.. As the exact documentation on %CSTAT is unavailable (thank you, TI), i looked it up in Enfora's. It says that the %CSTAT codes will be delivered only after power on. If it is really the case with calypso it is no surprise that we never get SimReady signal as we don't power-cycle the modem (ATZ seems to be not equivalent, and we can't do $RESET). So it seems that %CSTAT should be avoided altogether... It's a question of alternatives. I don't think hammering the modem with read/write contact requests until it stops answering with 'SIM busy' is better than using %CSTAT. Do it once, then if 'SIM busy' received, wait for the %CSTAT. What's wrong with this approach? The fact that it only works if the Calypso is in a good mood. If the timing is wrong, you get an empty list of contacts... So, the modem firmware is buggy, the documentation is absent, and though you can probably convince the guy who can modify the firmware to fix this bug, it would be too late (he's now busy fixing #1024, i suppose) and you don't want to mass-upgrade it anyway. So the only possible solution i see is to let applications get the phone- and messagebooks anyway. You tell them that sim is probably not ready but if they try, they can get whatever the modem gives. When %CSTAT received, you send them a signal to reread. -- Be free, use free (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) software! mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

This includes a utility class for finding the REAL name of a library, i.e. getting from GL to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 This code is found here: /usr/lib/python2.5/ctypes/util.py (assuming python-ctypes is installed) Now this relies in turn on several external tools for finding the library (see [1]), in particular ldconfig, gcc and objdump. Now ldconfig we have by default, gcc we do not want to install and objdump is in the binutils package. Now the binutils package only includes weird named binaries for objdump, i.e. /usr/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-objdump - and this is not found by ctypes... How do we fix this? Can binutils not ship with a /usr/bin/objdump symlinked to /usr/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-objdump? A semi-related question : Say I've written a new .bb file for python-opengl. How can I most easily get this put into openembedded?

OpenMooCow 0.2
While waiting for the Christmas puddings to cook this afternoon, I've been making a few updates to OpenMooCow. You can get version 0.2 from the same place as before: http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~taw27/openmoko/openmoocow/ Changes since version 0.1 are: - Moos when tilted either up or down (not just after tilting both ways like before). This seems to be what people expect, even though it's not quite what I remember genuine mooboxes doing. - The packaging has been fixed to depend on the things it needs. - You can now press the cow to make her moo. - Mooing still occurs even if the graphics can't be shown. Run the following on a terminal and your Freerunner will be mooing until the next reboot: $ nohup openmoocow And some improvements under the hood: - It should behave a little better if the accelerometers are sticky. - Code simplified and altered to make it easier to add support for other types of accelerometer. OpenMooCow won't alter your accelerometer parameters in any way, so you might have a configuration which it doesn't like. In particular, the threshold setting can cause problems. If this happens to you, try this: # echo 0 /sys/devices/platform/lis302dl.2/threshold Comments or abuse to this address as ever, Tom ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

If you tap on the top, choose Home, you'll see it also rotated. What I'm asking for is an ability to rotate a single aplpication, leaving illume and other apps in portrait orientation. Btw, thanks for pointing to ScummVM, I should try this. :) you will need to make the app itself handle its own rotated drawing. it's up to the app. That's what I expected. I wonder why there are still no such feature in illume. A handful of applications want this. nothing to do with illume. this is x. apps draw their own window contents and handle their own window even inputs. the app would need to rotate its own draws and translate all input even co-ordinates. I was thinking of a window manager plugin that applies rotation when the window is activated. Compiz can apply many of its effects selectively according to application (window name?) so I'm guessing wildly that calling an xrandr setting by name on change of active window should be possible. Then again I know nothing abut the internals of window managers... that would require xevie (so every mouse event go through the compositor and it can try translate (rotate them), so you will add more latency to mouse events), and compositing (which will slow down rendering as all rendering now has to happen to a backing pixmap) AND you will not have accelerated rotates/transforms as xrender is unaccelerated on glamo - so your output will become nice and slow... really slow. I hadn't even considered that approach on this hardware. Not a nice thought. as such you could selectively rotate thew WHOLE screen if a particular window is focused, but e has no such code - a module could be written that does just that. but then the keyboard, top-bar etc. will also rotate. That's what I was thinking of. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

A member “state” is added to the accel struct which can be used to implement a state machine inside the driver (as was done before with pos).” One could probably change the -1000 and 1000 values in the freerunner driver now to 0 and 1, to indicate the two states (upside down or not), but I didn’t want to be too intrusive :-) I have attached the complete diff against your release.

Re: [Om2008.9] Where to set Illume's preferences?
For the Dutch language the following characters are important: àáäâ and upper case èéëê and upper case ìíïî and upper case òóöô and upper case ùúüû and upper case ç and upper case ij (ij ligature) and upper case Normally it is not possible to easily input the latter ligature by the use of the compose key.

Re: [om2008.9] Did gsm multiplexing, got some problems, have some questions.
Got the solution. First i did wrong move - i update om-settings and python-dbus packages from testing. When I did the right thing - install dbus-x11 - it has the dbus-launch programm, settings began to run but because of earlier wrong updates there was unknown value of Profile and Suspend fields. exposure -f run showed what there, i think, should be some more dbus specification files (don't remember exact extension) Illume and Qtopia. Trying to get them showed what brobably many packages should be updated. I changed repository to testing and did opkg update opkg upgrade. The result was not booting to GUI. I even update uImage.bin - took it from /boot - no result. When I restored te backup of second try. Did install of dbus-x11, settings began to run ok, but there was unknown values again. exposure -f run showed no problems. May be i was not patient to enough time. There was hard to be patient because of 30 sec timeout. When I did another possibly wrong move - I did rm -rf ~/.e/e/config/illume, cp ~/.e/e/config/asu/* ~/.e/e/config/illume After restart i got no timeout and after short waiting in Settings unknown values was changed to actual values. But there was another surprise - no screen keyboard at all. And rm -rf ~/.e/e/config/illume did not help, but it change values in Settings to default. And I was able to change them. Long or short i got back virtual keyboard.
