 Flashing the latest SHR image and kernel from
 http://shr.bearstech.com/shr-unstable/images/om-gta02/ 23 April

 uImage-2.6.29-oe10+gitr119800+0b9d21bf5d05d5dd909425a67a8be2eb1c1fc579-r3.4-om-gta02.bin

 I could not connect via SSH over USB from my Ubuntu 8.10 host. lsusb
 on the host could see the neo but could not ifup usb0

 Only after reflashing just the kernel back to Apr 9, could I again
 reconnect via SSH. I have not tried kernels posted between those dates
 to work out where the problem starts.

 Howver to confirm it, I have reflashed back to the latest 23rd April
 but could not connect, then reflashed back to 9th April and worked
 again.

well, i fixed it - i can now ssh into my freerunner.

i'm not entirely sure what it was, but i think it was related to some
fiddling i did with depmod and modprobe on the phone. i'm guessing
some usb modules weren't loaded by default

 Fremont Buzz Fix Party, anyone?


 I do have soldering experience, but not with such small parts.  (In
 my day, everything was the size of a Buick.)  But I'm game.
 I'm San Francisco and would also show up for a CA BuzzFix Party if
 somebody threw one.
 For the SF Bay Area, I would suggest a couple places, both in San
 Francisco:

 NoiseBridge, a hackerspace that focuses on both hardware and software
 hacks in The Mission.
 PariSoma, a co-working space in SOMA that is the the SF/North Bay

Should work with SHR Settings from SHR unstable (as it uses interfaces

Well, that's always a matter of taste. :-)
If you don't like paroli you can always use an SHR image or zhone or
one of the other distros around.

 It's really nice to have a stable phone, but now with paroli in
 fullscreen it's only a phone. That's what you can buy at every
 discounter for 25 Euro or the like ;-)

As I said it's a free phone. :-)

 What are the plans for future om-Release? Paroli without fullscreen
 or with posibility to switch? zhone? SHR?

I believe this is on their roadmap, but I will wait for an official
answer on that.

 There are so many great apps that want to be used :)

I agree.

Whoever wrote this amazingly puzzling comment, I think he got something 
severely wrong with operating principles of PMU PCF50633.
Datasheet of PMU clearly states there's no situation whatever that could 
result in batcharge current overloading the USB_CURLIM, as *allways* there 
will be priority on serving system by providing up to 100% of usb current to 
power it. Bat charge will get whatever might remain after that, *up_to* the 
charging limit programmed into PMU.
As we may charge our battery with 1C (=1200mA) it's perfectly safe to set bat 
chg curlim to that value, and rely on PMU managing distribution of actual USB 
supply current to system and charging according to the momentary needs.

There have been issues regarding some glitch resulting in a very short 
brownout on Vsys when *enabling* batcharge, but I don't think it's covered by 
the explanation above, and anyway afaik this has been fixed with various 
uBoot-patches and modifying the Vsys-buffering C (no boot on flat bat issue)

See my previous shorter post in this thread

FSO Milestone 5.5 Preview Image

2009-04-25 Thread Jan Lübbe
Hello!

To prepare for the upcoming release of FSO Milestone 5.5, i've built an
image which contains the latest versions of our software. We want to
give you a preview of the changes and get some final testing before the
release.

Some notable changes since MS5.1 (a complete list will be published with
the final release):

* ogsmd:
  + Revamped timeout handling and parser, better unsolisticated
message handling
  + Support for more optional SMS features, submit/delivery reports
  + Handle corrupt SMS PDU better
  + Updated network database
  + Improve support for the Freescale Neptune and Qualcomm MSM modems
  + Implement a demo cell location service (using the cellhunter DB)
  + API: Change network code from int to string
see: 
http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=specs.git;a=commit;h=7547d409977666eebb5117e4fc837ec6f19a4553
* ogpsd:
  + Fix and reenabled ephemeris upload (~ 16 sec TTFF is possible)
* ophoned:
  + Support Bluetooth headsets
* otimed:
  + Use the network supplied offset in countries with more than
one time zone
  + The NTP servers ip can be configured in frameworkd.conf

Also, there have been a lot of bugfixes all over the framework.

For people who flash their device very often, we now try to bind mount
/media/card/bind-home to /home/root. Just create that directory on your
SD-Card and it will be mounted on the next reboot.

There are some known issues with the current build, please report any
additional problems to: http://trac.freesmartphone.org/

* oeventsd has a race condition which sometimes causes failure to
  inhibit suspend or dimming
* illume's shutdown menu is only one pixel wide
* the org.freesmartphone.GSM.Monitor commands sometimes report
  invaild data
* the aux button sometimes does not enable the display after dimming
* there is currently no GUI for BT headset configuration, use opreferencesd
  for this

You can get the image here:
http://buildhost.freesmartphone.org/~jluebbe/ms5.5-preview/images/om-gta02/

Thanks to everyone who has submitted patches and bug reports!
We can't do this without you :)

Waiting for new bug reports,

So I hope that some one with desktop experience can give me some tips on
how to modify those configuration files.

Although it doesn't show any side effect on functions, just those blank
sheet icons :(
 
  I think modify configuration will do. But I don't know how.
 
 i don't know about that

 Well, that's always a matter of taste. :-)
 If you don't like paroli you can always use an SHR image or zhone or
 one of the other distros around.
Yes, that's what I've done. The problem has been the stability so I hat to use 
om 2008.12 for a long time, which has been the most stable for me, even if I 
had to kill the message app every time I got two or more SMS.

Now SHR is my choice and joy. 

  It's really nice to have a stable phone, but now with paroli in
  fullscreen it's only a phone. That's what you can buy at every
  discounter for 25 Euro or the like ;-)

 As I said it's a free phone. :-)
That's the reason I bought it :)

  What are the plans for future om-Release? Paroli without fullscreen
  or with posibility to switch? zhone? SHR?

 I believe this is on their roadmap, but I will wait for an official
 answer on that.

OK, I'll see what happens ;-)

I've just been sad, such a stable release but then limited with no reason that 
I can see.

A quick note here ... libraries for syncml are really crap! But I
managed to establish a connection to a sample Syncml server; no proper
data exchange yet; but at least the connection (using libsyncml python
binding) ... so there is some hope, that it is possible in general  ;) 

Hopefully, coming back here soon with more information  :)

 Hi ! Yes I saw this too. It is a shame, as syncing is really needed on

 By the way since last week dates and tasks are available in the

 So if you are running Shr unstable, just do
 /opkg install dates tasks/
 to instal these apps

 I remembered that I had had a close look on the website already -
 and I just did so again.

 I see two problems here: first of all it is written in C (PISI
 uses Python); but nevertheless I think, I could re-use at least
 some of their ideas ...
 Second: the Sync-part of Pimlico does not progress much ... when
 checking the SVN, I noticed that the last entry (in Changelog) is
 from end of 2006; other parts are under much higher progress (e.g.
 Contacts) ...

 So - for coming to an end - I haven't yet contacted the
 developers; however, I keep an eye on this project and will try to
 re-use stuff whenever possible ...

[QT*] unpredictive keyboard

2009-04-25 Thread leona...@lilik.it
Hi list,

I've changed strategy on the unpredictive
qtopia/qtextended/qtextendedimproved keyboard.
Instead of patching the matchbox keyboard I've changed the original
qtopia keyboard. I've stretched it a little to make it larger and higher
and i made it unpredictable. I added another gesture: if you slide from
bottom-right along the diagonal to up-left you can toggle prediction.

here you can find the binary and the patch.
http://leonardo.lilik.it/wordpress/2009/04/26/qtextended-keyboard-made-unpredictive/

the patch is on Franky's git tree but I guess it works with any Qt*
since the keyboard doesn't seem changed at all. The binary is for the
qt-extended-improved I'm using..

two improvements are possible:
 - give a visual feedback when toggling prediction on/off
 - well, there are three more diagonal gestures that could be used if
you have ideas.

now matchbox seems quite useless.

feedbacks are most welcome.

ciao,
leonardo.

Re: ffalarms 0.2.1 and atd-over-fso (now works on SHR-testing)

2009-04-25 Thread Steven **
A well written app that works quite well under latest SHR-testing
(installed via opkg directly from SHR feeds).

One area I think needs improvement ASAP:  my Freerunner suspends (thus
silencing the alarm) before the alarm gets loud enough to really wake
me up.  SHR goes back to suspended after about 1 minute even if
ffalarms is playing the alarm. There are two things that would help
this:
1. Make the loudness increase by more with each step. Ideally this
would be configurable.
2. Make ffalarms prevent suspend for a time, maybe 5 minutes.  (Note
that it would be REALLY bad to prevent suspend indefinitely, as I
might forget I set an alarm and walk away from the phone, only to come
back hours later to an empty battery)

Overall, it looks very good.  I'll give it a test tonight/tomorrow morning.  ;-)

Re: [QT Extended Improved] GPS Mapping Demo

What about looking into SHR or other openmoko distro to copy the

I think SDL is a needed instrument, because it would allow the support
of many applications that are not supported by Qt Extended because
they need X.

In any ways, I'll try to look into it as soon as I'll have time, but
