QtMoko and X applicatiions
Is there any easy way to run X applications under QtMoko? I'm not mush of a Qt person, and QtMoko does not appear to have X set up by default. -- Iain B. Findleton Tel: 514-457-0744 ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I'm not mush of a Qt person, and QtMoko does not appear to have X set up by default. There's an application that comes with QtMoko called QX. QtMoko runs entirely off the framebuffer by default, but QX is sort of like having the X Server inside an application. You choose a command to run in QX and it just works. -- Harry Prevor ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Enhancing an RPi with phone capabilities
Dear list, I have been following the discussions on this list with great interest. Finally I have a project that I would like to work on, but I do not have all the expertise. You probably all know about the Raspberry Pi [1] (creditcard size computer for $35). I was wondering if it would be easy to give it phone capabilities. And with that, I do not mean only SMS, but also phone calls (calling and receiving). I would be very glad to receive pointers about what is needed for this, both in terms of hardware and software. (Since I have never soldered before, I would like to know of solutions that work via USB or something like that.) I have read quite a bit about Huawei modems and using them for internet connection + SMS. But there is very little information (as far as I know) about phone calls.

Re: Enhancing an RPi with phone capabilities
offtopic you can install freewitch on a raspberrypi use the stable release as although the latest version builds, it does not run (at least not for me) http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Installation_Guide you then have an opening into the world of voip - there are many things taht could be done eg http://robsmart.co.uk/2009/06/02/freeswitch_linksys3102/ apart from the obvious - using a softphone or buying a hardware voip handset. Freeswitch takes several hours to build on the pi, there are asterisk packages in raspbian so that would be an alternative. Don't bother with sipwitch though, which is, to be charitable, a work in progress (it chewed 98% of cpu while doing nothing for me) and is poorly documented. /offtopic -- David Matthews m...@dmatthews.org ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Just plug in a USB 3G modem? Assuming it's one with voice capability and software support, yes. Some research will be needed to see if there's a combination of bits known to work with the Pi. Ofono is packaged in Raspbian and claims support for a selection of 3G dongles. Probably the easiest route. I think there's a GUI via a telepathy module and empathy. FSO is also packaged, but I don't know what dongle support it has, if any. Asterisk should work with chan_sebi or chan_dongle, but they don't appear to be packaged. Elastix may be easier than Raspbian for this. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
