OTOH, mplayer does support just about everything out there (including video). So that's a plus. Of course, I'm going to try their reference implementations to see how much of a gain I get and whether it's worth the effort that will go into maintaining a full fledged player vs a frontend. Could some kernel guru tell me whether the standard toolchain is at all optimised for the ARM4T? Any ideas on how to make things work faster using the standard toolchain (I suppose size wont be that much of an issue with SDHC). -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Annuncing-new-Project---Intone-mplayer-frontend-tp2357405p2357633.html Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

[OM] Less power consumption

[New software] openBmap logger (GSM positioning)
Hi everyone, the openBmap team is happy to announce the first release of the openBmap [1] logger/uploader for freesmartphone.org. As mentioned on the main page openBmap is a free and open map of wireless communicating objects (e.g. cellular antenna, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth). It provides tools to mutualize data, create and access this map. At this time, only cellular networks are concerned. All the software code is AGPL v3 and data are Creative Commons License (creative commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported), thus the data is free to use (in the same way as OpenStreetMap). Map status (last update 2009-02-06 03:30:31) Cellular: 6 countries, 9 mobile networks, 313 location area codes, 8905 cells This could be used for: * locate you on a map. You don't need to turn GPS on. And as your GSM is always on, and the database is located on your phone, it is instantaneous. This prevent your battery and your privacy (don't need to send your GSM data to anyone on the Web). * provide rough location (the GSM gives less precise result as GPS) to the GPS, in order to speed up first time to fix. * ... The package Freesmartphone.org client [2] provides you with a logger, and an uploader. It has been tested against FSO Milestones 5. If you want to get located through your GSM data, at the moment you can use the Web API [3]. There is a Web interface [4] available to use this API and display zones on a map. We hope many will upload! Privacy note: when you upload, exactly as with OSM, your logs allow to know where and when you were. You have been warned ;-) !

The kernel will always be hungry when you do gps logging, because the processor must stay on in order to move coordinates from the gps chip onto a file - once per second.

Re: Annuncing new Project - Intone mplayer frontend
Hi, Well, intone - the media player in making (and it's **really** basic as of now), uses 0% CPU (according to HTOP (all my tests are with it). mplayer, in a separate thread uses its usual 15% or so. I'm using anjuta and glade for development, using fifo (named pipe) to communicate with mplayer running as slave and gtk+ for the frontend. As I have said before - the code is ***really*** basic. It makes a lot of assumptions, and is right now just a demonstration program - while I get some feedback on whether I need to put in any more time in it at all. If it is in such an early state, you might consider switching to some EFL based GUI library, like Elementary or Edje. Besides eating less RAM than your GTK+ program, they are also easier to use on touchscreen devices. Your ideas sound really promising, so please consider the switch to a toolkit, that was designed for small screen devices.

As mentioned on the main page openBmap is a free and open map of wireless communicating objects (e.g. cellular antenna, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth). It provides tools to mutualize data, create and access this map. At this time, only cellular networks are concerned. All the software code is AGPL v3 and data are Creative Commons License (creative commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported), thus the data is free to use (in the same way as OpenStreetMap). Map status (last update 2009-02-06 03:30:31) Cellular: 6 countries, 9 mobile networks, 313 location area codes, 8905 cells This could be used for: * locate you on a map. You don't need to turn GPS on. And as your GSM is always on, and the database is located on your phone, it is instantaneous. This prevent your battery and your privacy (don't need to send your GSM data to anyone on the Web). * provide rough location (the GSM gives less precise result as GPS) to the GPS, in order to speed up first time to fix. * ... The package Freesmartphone.org client [2] provides you with a logger, and an uploader. It has been tested against FSO Milestones 5. If you want to get located through your GSM data, at the moment you can use the Web API [3]. There is a Web interface [4] available to use this API and display zones on a map. We hope many will upload! Privacy note: when you upload, exactly as with OSM, your logs allow to know where and when you were. You have been warned ;-) !

Values will be displayed when valid. Logs are stored under HOME/.openBmap/Logs by default. * A button to stop generating logs. Note that at the moment, the GSM part gets updated only after receiving an asynchronous update from the network. This means at start time, it is normal the GSM part does not display GSM information, even if you are registered to network. * A button to upload. This will block the interface until every log has been uploaded. This means that if you do not have Internet connection up and running, the GUI will be frozen until timeout of the upload part. After succesfull upload, the logs are moved to HOME/.openBmap/Processed_logs by default. Warning: you should create an account on realtimeblog.free.fr website, and fill the login/password in the configuration file before upload works. * A button to exit. Config file and application log are located under HOME/.openBmap directory by default. Known bugs: * when you are generating logs, and you press 'Stop' button. A popup window let you know you should wait for the logger to finish stopping. Under FSO M5, if you press the power button, the phone suspends. You press it again it wakes up.

Re: Community Updates/February 20, 2009 released !
Hi, I can't speak for the whole engineering, but I can bring light on paroli and the respective images. Over the past 7 days we have: - gotten daily build unstable images which by now boot directly into paroli http://downloads.openmoko.org/distro/unstable/NeoFreerunner/fso-paroli-image-om-gta02.jffs2 http://downloads.openmoko.org/distro/unstable/NeoFreerunner/uImage-2.6.28-oe1+gitr34240a1c06ae36180dee695aa25bbae869b2aa26-r3-om-gta02.bin They do come with bugs and issues sometimes critical like today when paroli hangs because a resource in the framework is not available at paroli launch. This will be gone tomorrow. - Fixed lots of bugs and issues such as: -- unicode in message reading -- loading messages from the SIM and saving incoming messages in the phone automatically -- made all our lists automatically react to changes in items etc -- gui issues such as the PIN dialog -- got rid of the green topbar ;) -- muting ringtone on incoming call -- muting call in call (also as of tomorrow again) - moved most of the Milestone two tickets[1] to testing and - were feverishly working on the stuff for the next milestone[2] What are we planning to do next? - keep on fixing issues in MS2 - continue working towards MS3 - get the kbd to match paroli on the image - get messaging and contacts up and running as soon as possible to allow brave testers to use paroli daily ... any volnteers ? ;) Hope this is what you were looking for. If not just give me a ping and I'll spill out more details. And again if anyone is interested in helping out with paroli, contribute code or test or or or ...

Re: [New software] openBmap logger (GSM positioning)
I have discovered this project as I was cleaning up my code for release. At first glance, the differences are: * It sends direct AT commands to the modem, and parse the responses. openBmap relies on freesmartphone.org * So far they only collect data. We already have the Web API available to use the data to get located. Nick has already done a lot of work to create the GSM coverage areas out of the raw datas. But now that I have released my work, I will get in touch with the people at cellhunter to see if we could cooperate.

Re: [New software] openBmap logger (GSM positioning)
For the moment our position is: We log the cell ids we get connected to. We do not log the neighbour cells. The reason is: if we are far from the cells, we will (maybe, this needs experimentation to my point of view) see the cells even very far. I fear that it would stretch the areas, and thus decrease the precision, nullifying the benefit of recording those additional cells. But, my idea, is to use the neighbour cells, to detect the overlapping region among areas of cells I currently see, to improve the precision. Any comments?

Re: [New software] openBmap logger (GSM positioning)
isn't more data always preferable? you could still decide not to use them... cells that we are connected to would recieve a higher precision off course, but if I walk five times around in a city, and I never get connected to a certain cell, but I know a lot of points where that cell is in range, and a lot of points where it isn't? I don't find it impossible that one could distill some information from this. And even a precision of 30km or more helps the assisted gps from ublox; so neighbouring cells can certainly be of some help, don't you agree? y On Fri, Feb 20, 2009 at 2:42 PM, onen...@free.fr wrote: For the moment our position is: We log the cell ids we get connected to.

Making FreeRunner work as a Phone (using Qt Extended)
Hi all,Spent the last six weeks fooling around with different distributions. Obviously some distros are better than others for certain tasks. IMO Qt Extended is the best for using FreeRunner as a phone (although it sucks for many other tasks!).

OpenCellID (was OpenBmap logger (GSM positioning)])
Dear OpenMoko community (and thanks ed for pointing this out). I am behind the opencellid.org project, and it seems that there are some discussion around it these day on the mailing list. So let me clarifiy: - As described in the web site, the license is under creative common share alike 3.0. I had several request today stating that just linking to the license was not clear enough, so I will re-clarify it on the web site, but also in this list. - I am surprised to see statment that I did not answer to some questions. I've verified,and all openmoko request have been answered. I am not perfect, and may be some emails have been missed, but a search on openmoko on my mail box did not raise any pending question. There is more than 100 000 cells covered, with 5.5 millions of measure, and more cells will be donated soon. We expect to reach 200 000 cells in the coming weeks thanks to a new project donation. There is also more than 10 different clients (windows mobile, symbian, blackberry, j2me,...) gathering the database. I've been running this project since more than one year , with an objective to push community efforts around cell id. So I would be more than happy to see new effort joining this project instead of creating separate efforts. So let's join effort and create something big! And as a reminder, the complete data base is available for download. So if you have any question/interrogation, feel free to share them with me so we can clarify this.

It could be a minor bug - I'll just remind people here that pythm also works with MPD. If you use the MPD backend, it works very efficiently (probably the same as what you see with your mplayer+intone). The other advantage of MPD is that you can control it from anywhere since the communication between the frontend and the backend is over a TCP/IP connection. E.g. you can use your FR's pythm as a remote control for your other machines's MPDs (I have an MPD running on a small server at home, turning it into a jukebox).

So we could try to setup some kind of peer-to-peer distribution of the data downloaded from the satellites. Of course, that presumes we have the right to distribute the satellite's data.

Re: (Android) Uboot
2009/2/20 Paul p...@nlpagan.net Hello folks, Since a long time I can do something with the Freerunner again (my mother died a few weeks ago...) I have heard about Android images of Michael Trimarchi. But in the readme on his site, he mentions that the Uboot environment needs to be updated as the kernel is quite large. Can someone point me to the proper setting of the Uboot env, so I can play with this Android image?

Re: [New software] openBmap logger (GSM positioning)
hi, Yorick Moko wrote: isn't more data always preferable? you could still decide not to use them... cells that we are connected to would recieve a higher precision off course, Agreed. That is the point of view of Nick (from the project). Add a field to know if the log is a connected cell, or a neighbour one. On the phone the idea is to have the areas of the cells in a database. Not every GPS point uploaded to the raw database. But still, the raw database could grow up pretty fast. You should see with Nick, he takes care of the server side. but if I walk five times around in a city, and I never get connected to a certain cell, but I know a lot of points where that cell is in range, and a lot of points where it isn't? I don't find it impossible that one could distill some information from this. Probably. But again the database could grow quickly. But as stated in my previous email, I think we need to experiment with this, to see what works or not, and what takes not too much space. And even a precision of 30km or more helps the assisted gps from ublox; so neighbouring cells can certainly be of some help, don't you agree? I definitely think that using the neighbour cells to improve accuracy at locating time, will be much useful. What I wonder, is if to log them, increasing the amount of data, but stretching the areas related to them will bring us anything. y On Fri, Feb 20, 2009 at 2:42 PM, onen...@free.fr wrote: For the moment our position is: We log the cell ids we get connected to. We do not log the neighbour cells. The reason is: if we are far from the cells, we will (maybe, this needs experimentation to my point of view) see the cells even very far. I fear that it would stretch the areas, and thus decrease the precision, nullifying the benefit of recording those additional cells. But, my idea, is to use the neighbour cells, to detect the overlapping region among areas of cells I currently see, to improve the precision. Any comments?

Did you build this package by hand or with a recipe for OE? I ask because I would like to include it into OE and put it into the MS5 feed and perhaps also in the image for the next milestone. By hand. Thanks for helping! That would be awesome too! If you have an bitbake recipe that would make my life easier, if not just tell my if there is anythoing special I need to know for building it. I don't have a recipe. Nothing comes to my mind about something special for building it. It was working with python 2.5 under FSO M4.1.

Pidgin Facebook plugin :: troubleshoot arm problems...
Hi there, I'm on 2008.12 += Kustomizer and I have just got pidgin working. On my desktop I use a hackish pidgin plugin to use facebook chat via pidgin. The website is here: http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/ There is a version built for arm: http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/downloads/detail?name=libfacebookarm-1.47.so but I get the feeling it is arm5 because the moment one starts to use it pidgin crashes because of illegal instruction The only reason I attempted to use the prebuilt version is because I had such a touch time trying to get the right things installed to be able to build my own (I'm not experienced at doing this!)

Re: OpenCellID (was OpenBmap logger (GSM positioning)])
Hi Thomas, Thomas Landspurg wrote: Dear OpenMoko community (and thanks ed for pointing this out). I am behind the opencellid.org http://opencellid.org project, and it seems that there are some discussion around it these day on the mailing list. Last month, and today, indeed. So let me clarifiy: - As described in the web site, the license is under creative common share alike 3.0. I had several request today stating that just linking to the license was not clear enough, so I will re-clarify it on the web site, but also in this list. Last time I checked (and other people, see the post I pointed out earlier today), it was not clear. But today, as people had a look again, it seems to me pretty clear :-) - I am surprised to see statment that I did not answer to some questions. I've verified,and all openmoko request have been answered. I am not perfect, and may be some emails have been missed, but a search on openmoko on my mail box did not raise any pending question. Not sure what you mean by openmoko request... When I stated that neither us nor openmoko did get an answer, I should have written: If I recall correclty openmoko tried to reach opencellid, but I have not heard of any response. We tried to contact opencellid, but got no response. I personally have not tried to reach you. But Nick yes, without answer, for what I have understood. There is more than 100 000 cells covered, with 5.5 millions of measure, and more cells will be donated soon. We expect to reach 200 000 cells in the coming weeks thanks to a new project donation. There is also more than 10 different clients (windows mobile, symbian, blackberry, j2me,...) gathering the database. Is there different countries? Good to see there is no client for openmoko, otherwise I may have worked for nothing ;-) I've been running this project since more than one year , with an objective to push community efforts around cell id. So I would be more than happy to see new effort joining this project instead of creating separate efforts. So let's join effort and create something big! I am very glad to read this, especially as I was very disappointed not being able to leverage the existing work you have done. For my part I work on the client side. A logger/uploader. I guess it would be easy to modify it to upload to your database if we go that way. But for now, I think it would be good Nick (who takes care of the server side) and you keep discussing, in order to evaluate a possible merger. As there are also plans on embedding the database on the phone, and using it to locate, I would like to know if this part would interest you? Or only the server side and upload? And as a reminder, the complete data base is available for download. So if you have any question/interrogation, feel free to share them with me so we can clarify this. Regards, Great we can move along. I hated this feeling of reinventing the wheel!
