 Where do you guys keep up to date regarding the changes in the SHR apps?

   
i don't... since the switch to fsogsmd+fsotld+etc... my neo is in a

 I installed shr-theme-neo again and noticed that the background and
 symbol font on the starter are black and thus the app names are
 unreadable.
(i'm the author of the neo theme ...at least illume and elm) i dont 
bother with illume2 for now

i'm waiting till these issues are ironed out then i'll adapt the

because of the current situation dont expect any theme updates until the 
current regressions are ironed out.
you might want to try to switch to illume1 - window management and neo 
theme works there (go to illume settings - [i forgot the category] - 
profile and select illume-shr)

[[SHR all] Read this if Call screen and messages dont work - a.k.a.- fixing dissappearing call window, segfaults and name-to-number resolution

2010-03-15 Thread Bernd Prünster
this is maybe a duplicate and most users prolly know it and the issue 
should be fixed in newer images, but still this gives you a *working 
phone* back if you have problems:

the root of all evil are missing typed fields.

if you converted your old opimd database using the convert script, you 
prolly dont have to do this. (if te convert script complains about 
existing db and aborts, simply delete
if you imported you contacts using pisi, you might have to do this (is 
wrong psis default config still an issue?)

if you didnt import anything you prolly have to do this.

you can list your current fields using

mdbus2 -s org.freesmartphone.opimd \
/org/freesmartphone/PIM/Contacts \
org.freesmartphone.PIM.Fields.ListFields

Here's an example output from my PIM databse: 

( { Surname:name, Name:name, Affiliation:text, 
Photo:photo, Work phone:phonenumber, Mobile 
phone:phonenumber, Note:text, Phone:phonenumber, 
Birthday:date, E-mail:email, Address:address, 
Nickname:name, Home phone:phonenumber } )

this is the bare minimum to get everythign working again:

mdbus2 -s org.freesmartphone.opimd /org/freesmartphone/PIM/Contacts \ 
org.freesmartphone.PIM.Fields.AddField 'Name' 'name'
mdbus2 -s org.freesmartphone.opimd /org/freesmartphone/PIM/Contacts \ 
org.freesmartphone.PIM.Fields.AddField 'Phone' 'phonenumber'


is works the same way for all other fields you may have and also for 
adding extra fields (as shown in the example output above)

i can confrim thsi myself as all teh problems were gone as soon as i did 
this

i hope this is not considered spamming, but some people are still 
complainig about problems mentioned in the subject

 My guess is you have a badly formatted entry at one end, or possibly both. 
 Check your vcf file for existing vcards with no line starting FN: as it is 
 one 
 of the few required fields in a vcard. Do you have any contacts with an empty

 Unfortunately the project is implemented in Java, which I'm no fan of on
 anything but a web server or browser but that's a discussion for another
 day.

 I tried our system, which is running in an OSGi Container, on Jamvm on
 the OpenMoko. It works but it sucks up 95% of the CPU when it's idle.
 Not Good! I tried the same on my eeePC and with Sun's JRE our system
 uses 1% of CPU whilst JamVM on the eeePC uses 40%. Obviously JamVM does
 not suit our system.
 

 No idea if it would be better, but have you tried cacao? Its in shr-feeds now 
 again.
   
This is really weird!
I wrtoe one more or less serious app in java for the freerunner and a 
couple of test apps and jamvm had avery fast startup, but was not as 
compatible as cacao, but easier to use and did not require that much 
ressources.
which distro are you using? which feed are you using to install jamvm 
(dunno if still true but there used to be a difference depending on 
where you installed it from).

 Thank you for all the explanation. I think the 32bit engine is the
 only to go with now. Perhaps the optimization is is already done,
 maybe not.

 @Bernd Prünster: you are already very good with this, it would be good
 to see the difference, if not used already... mind to try the above in

gry* doesnt use dropshadow, it was one of the forst thigs i kicked out, 
gry* uses a white outline on black text.
but thats something thats bugging me. i have to make some tests...
   
 i started a
 rewrite- illume2 is in svn. its much cleaner and leaner designed to
 allow for replacable home screens (ie a home window provides by
 either another e module or another process). as well as top
 shelf (inf act any corner/region of the screen) can also be a
 window provided by.. another module... or another process etc. its
 much more like the kbd code. it's started. it's not usable. it's on
 the backburner until a bunch of other tasks are done that are much
 higher priority.
 

 ok, will hope for better times to come

   
 developed? What do you use on small device? Illume was ditched
 long time ago, is there not a replacement with attention?
 Anything you could recommend?

 That as Raster correctly said, default is something that should do 
 everything as-best-as-possible, and default in all E distros is a 
 pain-in-the-a**
 This is a distro maintainer issue ok but remember I'm talking from the 
 user's point of view and from this point of view it's a matter of E not 
 distro maintainer configuration (given both distros suffer the same 
 problem).
 And until some months ago there wasn't a simple theme for Illume (and 
 please don't tell me creating Illume's themes is as easy as Qt or GTK...)
   

i'll tell you something about e themes: so you have teh possibility to 
make everything constist of what you want ant look like you want it.
if i have the time i will make you an e theme that uses hardly äny 
images and as little layers as possible it will be very fast in comparison.
best example for single layer atm should be the toolbars in elm and 
illume using gry* theme, which can be made even faster if you use some 
tricks (yes i have something specific in mind but i dunno if i'll 
actually impelent it (no the user wont SEE any desing difference, but 
the code-wise design would get ugly and i dont think i want that).
if you want to theme e you will probably need more time to get into it, 
but a soon as you are in it you can radiacally change the way it behaves 
and the way it looks.
you have much more possibilites which means moch more potential for 
optimization the gtk will ever give you, because the desing of gtk 
limits you VERY MUCH, edje doesn't.
i've wrote 3 themes until now (of which 2 have been released third one 
was playground for exploiting how far one can go using edje, when you 
see it you'll shit bricks!). i can make gry* even faster, but the them 
is still in development and there still soem decisions to make before i 
can start to kick out even the last bit of unneeded stuff (also it gets 
a little tricky if you try not to use any images and still want to make 
it look good also testing is required to find out what gives you 
ultimate speed with nice looks...)

Yes I know, thank you :) but since then I noticed new versions were
slower than the one I have, so maybe FDOM guys or that libraries version
was more performant, I really don't know honestly...



FDOM display is faster mainly because it uses a relatively simple theme.

so much craziness in this world... i'm gonna look out the window to

oink oink, notch notch, grunz grunz!
 
Bernd's lightweight themes should give a similar speedup.


Another factor is that some iterations of the fso daemons have been occasional 
resource hogs, causing display slowdowns whichever toolkit you use. This has 
been addressed partly by bugfixes in the python implementations, and for the 
future by the ongoing move to vala implementations of the daemons, starting 
with the most resource-hungry.

Re: Launcher Release 0.39

 Hi,
   Well, I've been thinking about making a few more changes like :-

 1. a second screen to the right that shows up on a finger slide with the
 category toolbar and program icons
 2. a home screen with :-
(a) some widgets (weather, facebook etc)
(b) lists for tasks/calendars/events etc
(c) a grid based (drag and drop) layout for some regularly used apps

   In order to do this, I need pointers / ideas / help about :-

 1. how to implement a C framework that can be used by other dev's / users to
 create widgets using e17
 2. help in creating the theme / edge files
   
Just tell me how you want it to look like and i'll do it.
 3. maybe some pointers to code I can re-use

   All ideas, code and pointers (and anything else however whacky) are
 welcome. I do need some coding help too - launcher is getting rather large
 for me to maintain - and has a lot of poor design decisions that need rework
 too.

 I prefer to not have transparency if this would result in more than
 10fps in GUI responsiveness (not calculated but perceived which is what
 end user counts on)
 

 Then use a theme that doesn't use transparency! Bernd Prünster has done great 
 work on producing themes that run much faster than the default while still 
 looking good. They don't degrade with the 16 bit renderer either, and that 
 runs even faster. The themes should be in the shr repos by now.
I Fixed nEo theme bubbles, but i will have to write phoneui themes 
(saill waitin for mrmoku to implement themability in phoneui)
gry* was adapted to work with new elm version.

nEo and gry is in the mrmoku feeds, so just wait for the new unstable 
and you'll have fast themes in shr repo (i am going to ask mrmoku to put 
the current version of nEo and gry* theme into current shr-u feeds. the 
nEo theme has some problems (badly designed edc code to begin with, 
complicated installation because libframeworkd-phonegui-efl is not 
really themable.)

by the way gry* is even closer to what raster said use rects without 
scaled images gry* doesn't even use images to render buttons, the are 
drawn on the fly and look better than anythign i ever seen using 
software_16.

the default theme is simpyl nto optimized for slow devices like the 
freerunner (i think i counted 5 layers including text for something as 
simple as a button and not just 4 layers of somethung but 4 layers of 
which 4 use translucency, of which at least 1 is animated)

if you want to know what happens if you kick all that stuff out try the 
nEo theme or the gry* theme, which both still can be optimized (current 
gry* version in development has even faster scrolling!)
elementary apps are faster than gtk apps, the render faster, they scroll 
faster (using a proper theme), so i think i can say that raster cannot 
be talking plain bullshit! (although in the past i was really pissed at 
him for a couple of things he said and HOW he said it, so i am not his 
biggest fan, but i can only bow if i look at how powerful the tools are 
efl puts into my hands and how little ressources they use)

and for xfce+compiz compared to efl: ever wondered why the rendering 
engines are called SOFTWARE? and why compiz requires opengl? go figure!

 No... shr-settings, for example, for underlining the modifiable entries

 should be visible.

 About the scrollers, I meant that generally in elementary an entry is

 tests in elementary_test; the scroller there (but not only) creates a

 Tried to set up opimd-messages for flaunch. The categories line in

 Categories=System;Settings;Bar (tried with and without trailing ';')

 The icon disappears from the desktop, but doesn't show up in flaunch.
 And against your description, not the first three icons are used but
 shr-contacts, -dialer and -messages. (I want the opimd ones in there.)
 Mine or your fault? :)

Seems that since the niebiee theme and the nEo theme are in the feeds, 
the shr apps' (shr-dialer, shr-contacts, shr-messages) categories 
include 'Bar',
and since only three apps can be placed in flaunch, and flaunch is 
already full with these three your app won't show up.
so you have to alter the shr-messages', shr-contacts', shr dialer's 
categories and remove Bar.
then your opimd messages will show up (if you also want it to be 
displayed in launcher copy the categories line from one of the shr apps).
by the way: a new version of the theme is available at opkg.org wih 
improved boot-screen

thsi si how it works: 3 starters can be placed there, if not specified

how to specity: chosses 3 apps you want to have placed in flaunch by

declare System;Settings;Bar in as category - starters will disappear

Re: Themes with light background?

2009-09-20 Thread Bernd Prünster
i'm sorry but you have to write your own or wait till UPC installs my
broadband internet vonnection so i can catch up on openmoko related
stuff and finish my gry* theme (somewhere on the shr user ml i posted
a wip snapshot of the gry* theme)

2009/9/20, Marcel tan...@googlemail.com:
 Moin,

 I like the simplicity and consistency of the nEo theme collection, but
 after having used it for some time, I'd prefer one with a light
 background and dark fonts. Can someone recommend a simple theme that
 might fit? The standard elm theme would do the job, but it scrolls s
 slow in intone... :) I rather ask here before having dozens of tested
 themes for different gui toolkits on the neo and nothing looks as it
 should anymore...

 Hi,

 Thanks for great theme, I like it a lot!

 Are neo-theme files in SCM somewhere? It would be needed for preparing
 bbfiles for shr, or at least releasing some source-version.tar.gz with all
 files needed? I think that all parts together in one repo or gzip would be
 ok, we can split all 6 parts to packages with bitbake.

 Then theme-shr and theme-neo packages could be modified to install theme
 files to subdirectory and then set symlinks in postinst and block each
 other, or even better install shr to default with symlinks targeted there
 and add theme changing item to shr-settings :).


 Regards

 JaMa
just edje_decc the edj files of which the theme consists and you have
the sources.

2009/9/14 Martin Jansa martin.ja...@gmail.com:
 If you're interested in how I solved file collisions between your theme
 and shr one.. see attachement 1 with OE-repo diff and 2nd with file
 layout.

 The advantage is that only one link (target of default directory) is set
 in postinst which I should do with update-alterantives (but that later).

Martin, u talk with mrmoku so you get git access since you already
patched the theme.
another thing i'd like to ask you is to recolor the elm bubbles to
black with green border.
as is stated few days ago i am currently moving and dont have time and
dont have fast internet atm (using mcdonalds intenet terminal or my
freerunner as gprs modem. i should be back in action in about 2 weeks.
then i can include the latest icons into the neo icon theme, reolsve
the reminaing issues and complete the neo theme and can finally finish
the gry* illume theme.

i am not a complete geek without a life, so things will probably delay
even further.
regarding theming i just want to polish everything up complete the
icon theme etc and finish the gry* theme... and as soon as everything
is in shr git repo i dont need to be bothered for every little issue.

martin i would be glad if you could manage to get teh neo themes into git

Re: [all] Don't answer a call by turning FR upside down..

2009-08-27 Thread Bernd Prünster
Risto H. Kurppa schrieb:
 Hi!

 There's been this rumor about using accelerometers of Freerunner to
 ignore a call around.

 At the moment there are no useful applications for gestures, only
 (great!) games: mokomaze, doom etc.
 Someone wrote the framework for gestures but it's not been actually
 integrated in any(?) distro.
 From what I heard the issue is that reading accelerometers is very
 CPU-intensive.

 Phone (framework, something?) sees a call coming in
 It starts to sniff the accelerometers
 If the phone is already upside down (on a table), don't alert (or
 maybe with vibra or something)
 If the phone is not upside down, alert as predefined.
 Continue sniffing: if the phone is turned upside down, go silent, stop vibra.
   
Personally i dont like it. i always put my fr upside down in my pocket 
an take it out flipping it upside down...
it is hard to get rid of old habbits...
 Here's some c00l details from DocScrutinizer:

 01:20  DocScrutinizer gmeters can be switched on/off. No idea what's
 current status.
 01:21  rhkfin - turn it on only when there's a incoming call?
 01:22  DocScrutinizer you probably want to set interrupt trigger
 threshold so cpu load is zero until you actually see the gesture
 01:23  DocScrutinizer for sureyou don't want to soft-process the raw
 gmeter data at full sample rate all the time
 01:24  rhkfin true
 01:28  DocScrutinizer you enable and read out -x:0,y:-1000,z:0.
 Set threshold to x:+-300,y:ditto,z:0. Then wait with no cpu load
 until device gets considerably repositioned/accelerated
 01:28  rhkfin right
 01:29  DocScrutinizer if you see trigger, do same again

 Shouldn't be very hard but it'd be extremely cool. Integration to a
 distro (SHR maybe :)  might be a bit more of a hack (adding GUI to
 enable/disable this feature etc) though..

Re: [Shr-User] We need a new Illume theme

2009-08-13 Thread Bernd Prünster
i got good and bad news:

good news:
another theme is half way done: gry* it also looks quite nice
it s as fast as the neo theme (at least feels that way)
screenie: 
http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/4ca2a945d6c1179d4ee9a0c6b6e9e0f0.png
elm theme is complete
illume theme is half way done (cusomizig the fully featured 
elnightenment theme is a nightmare!!)
etk is done (only the tree was customized, and it can stay that way 
since libframeworkd-phonegui-efl0 will die.
this theme cannot mess up anymore liek the neo theme did. guaranteed!
libframeworkd-phonegui-efl customization is not needed anymore.
theme can be downloaded @ [1]

bad news:
i did not consider recoloring the nEo theme from the beginning .
the only thing i can do for now is making the green customizable, the 
background has to stay dark (not necessarily black)
since most CLIP objects use 255 255 255 255 white also can't be customized.
i have to rewrite the whole theme if i want to make it fully customizable
also since libframeworkd-phongui-efl has about 9 edj files to recolor, 
recoloring will be a real bitch.

consider this a preview.
to make sure there aren't any questions:
contents of elm.zip go to /usr/share/elementary/themes
(activate it by crating a executable shellscript in /etc/profile.d/ 
containing the following lines:
export ELM_THEME= gry
export ELM_ENIGNE= x11-16
)
contents of illume.zip go to /usr/share/enlightenment/data/themes
contents of etk.zip go to /usr/share/etk/themes /yes overwrite your 
default theme (don't worry! in case you are afraid to crash anything you 
can always reinstall the default theme via opkg)
feedback is very much appreciated (in illume theme teh defaul theme 
shines trough on many paces, but it is usable)
(but under any circumstances DO NOT SAY ANYTHING AGAINST THE FLOWERS! :-P)

2009-08-10 Thread Bernd Prünster



Hi,

We (french FR comunity) are trying to solve the #1024 bug. I put a 
10uF SMD cap inside my GSM can, and I saw an increased battery life. 
your way to solve it is not as clear as I understand it.
Correct me if i'm wrong : you only soldered the (+) of the c1009 cap 
to the GND ?  or other way my english tell me you did : on wire on the 
(+)  of the cap, on on the (-), and the two wires on the GND of the 
phone ?


By advance thanks a lot.

Thomas
openmoko-fr.org
freerunner.daily.free.fr

maybe i screwd the description up

i attatched a pic describing how i did it.
basically solder a lacquer wire to c1009's (+) wich you will fit through 
the shielding can so you can add another c in parallel which can be any 
kind of tht electrolyte capacitor small enought to fit in the gsm 
antenna. ofcourse this c also needs to be connected to gnd, so take 
another peice of lacquer wire to connect the other capacitors (-) to gnd.


hope it helps (pics will be postet within the next days)

 Yes, with the one with low ESR, so one most probably will have to use
 a ceramic.

   
 One should avoid putting wires inside an RF can, especially if they
 run towards the outside of the can. It ruins the can shielding
 purpose... 
 

 Probably yes, probably not. Depends on luck and black magic. But
 you're right, if routing anything outside the shield can be avoided,
 it should be. Or at least some small nice ferrite should be placed on
 the fire as near to the can as possible.

 Thanks!

   
Jup thats right it depends mostly on luck. i just gave it a shot and it 
works flawlessly, if it had not worked i could have simply unsolered it.

i did not take a close look at the schematic but i would guess this 
c1009 acts a s buffer for modem power supply, right?!

[all] call for support: edje guru needed

2009-08-05 Thread Bernd Prünster
i am the author of the nEo theme.
i would really appriciate if someone would jump in and support my effort 
to create a 1.0 version of the theme where NOTHING shines through for 
the default theme. so basiacally the enlightenment theme has to be 
completed. and the etk theme. well... we need an etk theme, since the 
only thing customized atm is teh etk tree and only partly.
i can do it on my own, but help would be appriciated.
critearia:
* use as little pngs as possible (recycle where possible) - you dont 
have to draw you won pngs since everything you need is already there 
(except maybe for some small gui elements like found in right click menu 
etc).
* use as lillte layers a possible, while still keeping a nice look
* use some small animations where needed (not where they would be nice 
- of cource a fade in and fade out of a overlayed rect when pressing a 
button won't hurt anyone)
* dont use colored pngs since the nEo theme only uses black white and 
green, so white pngs can be colored in the edje data collection
* in case you have some elements with spacing inbetween and these 
elements are on top of a scollable area please place a solid recht 
underneath these elements to grant smooth scrolling
* remove as many layers as possible from the default theme's elements 
since we dont need them (no dont replace them with translucent rect os 
sth like that, kick 'em out for good!)

anyone out there who is interested (please i know most of what i did is 
quick and dirty, but a goal for now is creating a complete theme suite) 
and has the needed skills to do it?

note: i am not using edje editor, im using a text editor to make the 
themes (because i dont trust wysiwyg editors)

if there finally is a theme suite where no elements from the default 
theme shines through i'd like some real edje guru to overview it and 
tell me where the really ugly parts are.

luckily edje is that part of enlightenment that is well documented. just 
google it and you will find an api documentation. armed with that doc 
just take a look at your theme of choice.
install the nEo themes and you will have everything you need to start 
playing around.
install elementary tests
the etk examples etc...
so you can actually see which block in the edc does what.

current state of the nEo themes:
elementary: complete
gtk+: complete
icon theme: will never ever be complete since new apps get 
written/ported nearly everyday
illume theme: alsmost there (just the sliders, some lables and list in 2 
or three places, but the standard user will most likely never see it, 
because most of it is hidden somwehre deep down in the configs)
libframeworkd-phonegui-efl: complete (do wen need a gree deletion icon 
or is the dfault one fine for the dialer?)
etk theme: only the etk tree is done so far
gpe-icontheme: half way there
gtk-icon theme: nearly complete, prettier icons will be supplied in teh 
near future

long story short: the nEo theme is very fast, very geeky, and on first 
and second site already complete, but when yo take a close look you will 
see one or two rough edges (for example the scrollbar in contacts. i had 
it customized, but packaged the wrong version of the theme).

getting to know how to work with edj probably takes 2 days, because it 
is very intuitive code and mostly you just need common sense.
there are some tricky hings though (for example if gui elements are 
translucent where they need to be solig you will get garbage on teh 
screen (take a look at the keyboard design of the nEo theme)

 browser, but when I installed it I loved how it looked and felt.  Even my
 non-geek friends were pretty impressed.

 I noticed a problem with colors though, but I'm not yet sure which element
 of the theme created it.  Basically, some applications (such as neote and
 SHR's new wifi thingy) text fields become white on white which makes the
 text unreadable.  If I have time in the next few days, I'll look into this.

 Thanks!
 Russell Dwiggins

[???] Which system is this?

2009-07-28 Thread Bernd Prünster
saw these screenies on scap: 
http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/b41df60899616887078dc018612ba0e7.png

looks like efl based, seems to be shr (?)
is this a new, basic windowmanager?
is this a in-development version of launcher?
is this a rewrite of the illume launcher?
it uses some costom edj file for translucent buttons (at least thats 
what i guess, since it seems to be efl based)

if there is someone out there, who can answer my question, can he or she 
please tell me hor responsive the ui is..

 Hi,

 No one before asked for an option to change the color in ffalarms.  So
 for you may change LED_COLOR in ffalarms.edc [1], recompile and replace
 the theme.

 [1] 
 http://projects.openmoko.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/trunk/data/ffalarms.edc?rev=27root=ffalarmsview=auto
(this is 0.2.3 version)
 

 very cool, two questions though.

 when i opened up the file there are 4 values for color rather then the
 3 i am used to
 #define LED_COLOR 0 255 0 255

 along with that, how does one re-compile for the openmoko. is it on the wiki?

 - jeremy

   
every good edj file ships with build script so use build.sh for 
recompilation.
about colors: the 4th value is the alpha channel

[SHR/possibly all] gtk icon theme help needed

i extended my icon theme beacuse i want to replace the default gtk icons 
aswell. i added my icon theme to /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc. restarted the 
xserver. but the orange openmoko icons are still there (for example in 
teh toolbars of gtk applications like vala terminal.)
just as an experiment i everwrote all the icons in teh openmoko standard 
icontheme restarted xserver. executed gtk-update-icon-cache but still 
nothing happened.
what am i doing wrong? ( i edited my index.theme the filenames and 
filesizes are all correct)
i even rebooted my fr...

 Well, I would say it was a very bad joke. I spent eq. of 400 dolars, I

 bus, one can forget about acceleration... What can be accelerated if you
 have to send information about complex bitmaps...
 
 That's really sad =(
   
 AFAIK there is still some space for improvement in general responsiveness.
 Actually there is a busy loop eating CPU to wait for graphical
 operations to complete.
 There are working in progress to avoid that. When the fix will be
 ready *and* adopting a good design pattern for applications (e.g.
 GUI/logic multithreading split, fusion of frequently used phone tasks
 in monolitic one-shot load and forget applications) we may see an
 acceptable speedy freerunner.
 

 When will that be? When the device is completely obsolete?

 Sorry, but after a year of waiting I still have an expensive brick that I can 
 neither use as a proper phone (speaker still WAY to low, too unstable, too 
 slow, too battery-hungry) nor as a PDA (no usable software available). So I 
 really regret my decision to buy it. But then again, it was touted as a real 
 phone for end-users back then and being a happy Linux-User for 14 years, I 
 thought that I could live with some minor flaws...

 I'm really for the idea of freeing the phone (thats why I bought one), free 
 hardware and the community. And I really loved to see this effort to succeed. 
 But I came to realize that I start to hate this sluggish, instable device 
 without good software. I cannot help it. I haven't found a single distro that 
 works well out of the box. The best ones so far were QTopia/QTe and Android. 
 And neither are really community efforts. So I consider my personal 
 experiment 
 (buying a community-driven phone for 300 EUR) as failed. Sorry.
   
just a few words. (for the first time i think its worth to say something 
about negative criticism)

speaker volume: a littel low (every fr seems to be a little bit 
different regarding audio) and i am one of those lucky bastards without 
a buzz (depends also on the gsm network) and with volume where i can 
understand everything well even out on a busy street, but i totally get 
your point. tooke me month to put my alstate to perfection. i even had 
to turn teh mic volume down, because othe people complained it was too 
loud (overdrive). before my alsastate balancing act aoudio was crappy, 
but i am totally aware of the fact that ijust got lucky.

battery life: my best experience was fdom with approx 4 days (calypso 
deep sleep was still enabled and i misses only about 5 calls in one 
month, again i seem to be lucky and maybe thsi aswell depends on the 
network, althoug i dont really know how) freaky thing was: after 
reflashing with om2008.8 i knew what the calypso deep sleep bug was... 
since then battery life is about 2 days)

pda: what do you need? pilminco is does the job wonderful, but i _do_ 
get your point.

advertising the fr as a usable phone: that si a point where i totally 
agree with you: it was advertised to be usable for advance 
users/developers, but even if you are _THE_ code guru you cant fix teh 
buzz for example.

unstable: i have to agree: my current system doesnt handel gprs well and 
wlan is a kernel bug.

sluggish: OH YES! glamo was a mistake. also you do feel the missing fpu, 
because there are no DSPs/external fpus. althoug i managed to watch 
videos in fullscreen (320x240) with synch audio on om2008 a simple 
shellscript ans some transcoding did the job (again DSP and the glam has 
amp4 dsp which works like a charm, but the bandwith to the gpu(???) is 
the bottleneck) but lets not concentrate on teh graphics: a slow bus 
doesn make the deviec slow it just makes the display choppy, but as you 
stated the software is far from finished, so everything else fels slow + 
there is room for a lot of gui optimizations that would really kick in.

software in general: yes! a lot is still not runnign on openmoko phones. 
i phrased this sentence, because a lot of software ust hasnt been ported 
and optimized for the small screen.

long sotry short: i think you are kind of right. personally i think the 
software will be reall yuser friendly and _really_ work out fo the box 
when the device is oblosete. on teh other hand teh palm pre seems to be 
on second place regarding openness (some people already ran a system 
compiled from source with full kernel and driver support, although afaik 
on versions of teh palm pre without gsm/disabled gsm).

personally i dont regret byung the fr, because it is fun to play with 
and i've been able to use it as my daily phone since october last year

[SHR] nEo theme need help packaging (was: Re: [Shr-User] New _FAST_ theme)

2009-07-09 Thread Bernd Prünster
sorry for crossposting, won'T happen again, but i am looking for help...

i fixed a couple of tiny things (for exaple i added elmdentica icon to 
the icon theme and radio buttons shluold now be displayed properly) and 
i want to build an ipk.
my problem: i am not good in writing shellscripts, so i will explain my 
concern:

packaging in general is not aproblem.

packaging illume theme is no problem at all..

the trouble begins with the ELEMENTARY THEME:

[*]i want to display a warning message (befor the installation process) 
that the user should remove the neo theme before installing any other 
elemetary themes (are there any apart from sixteen?) so that the user 
can press ctrl+c if he doesnt want to install it, because if the proper 
scripts are missing something might go wrong [that should not be that 
big of a problem for me, but just in case i'd like to have it done by 
someone else].

[*] i want to automatically enable the neo elementary theme after 
installing, but i also want to check if another non-default elementary 
theme is in use to keep /etc/profile clean [i have an idea how to do it, 
but it could also blow /etc/profile if i do it myself]

[*] i want to automatically enable x11-16 engine for elementary, but 
check if it has already be done by the user (again to keep /etc/profile 
neat and tidy) [again i dont want to do it myself for the sake of 
/etc/profile]

the troubles continue with the SHR APPS edje data collections:

[*] i want to backup every .edj file in 
/usr/share/libframeworkg-phonegui-efl before the neo theme's edj files 
are placed there so i dont overwrite the default files.. [my idea would 
be to append .back te every edj file in this directory... theoretically 
i know how to do it, but i want to be absolutely sure that my them 
package doesnt overwrite any default files so that the user can switch 
back to the default look if he removes the neo theme]

the troubles go on with the ETK THEME

[*]i want to display a warning message (befor the installation process) 
that the user should remove the neo theme before installing any other 
etk themes (are there any ?) so that the user can press ctrl+c if he 
doesnt want to install it, because if the proper scripts are missing 
something might go wrong [that should not be that big of a problem for 
me, but just in case i'd like to have it done by someone else

[*] i want to kackup /usr/share/etk/themes/default.edj so i dont 
overwrite any defaul files [same problem i have with elementary]


final problem:

[*] when the user removes the neo theme i want to revert all these steps 
mentioned above.


so basically i want opkg to do everything mentioned on my blog in the 
installation instructions [1] (guys who installed the theme already know 
them)

the download link for the theme packages (icon theme and e+elm+etk+shr 
apps) stayed the same.

thx in advance (i hope someone can do me that favor...)

 Hi everyone,

 Since getting my phone back from being buzz-fixed (thanks SDG!) I've
 been using Om2009-unstable as my daily phone with no problems.

 Now that I'm using my phone more regularly, I started looking around
 for a calendar.

 Unfortunately I can't seem to find a calendar in the repositories, or
 on opkg.org.  All I can find is knjMokoCalendar, which looks good but
 I'd rather keep Google out of the loop.

 Are there Om2009-compatible packages for GPE-Calendar or Pimlico?
 It's possible I missed them, or I just don't know where to look.

 What are other people using for a calendar?


 thanks,

 Yuo have installed (bad english sorry!) illume-config and

 (at the top in the pager when is expanded) the keyboard at defoult..
 

 illume-config and illume-config-illume were already installed when I
 started messing around. I don't know if they're included in the testing
 image or were dependencies for some other piece of software.

 Reboot or no reboot, I either have the default qtopia keyboard if I add
 nothing/comment out the line in qtopia89 or have nothing at all if I
 add it there or in my .profile.

what about that:
decompile the asu and the illume theme with edje_decc (follow wiki 
instructions)
then copy the keyboard part from the illume.edc into the asu.edc

the buildscript will probably reporte an error about size:...not known 
or something like that. delete the line that causes the error and re-run 
build.sh. i customized my theme, when i was using 2008.9 and it worked 
(you have to copy the pngs that the illume theme uses for the virtual 
keyboard into the aus.theme working directory, ofcourse!)
this should work, since you already have the qwerty button in the top bar

backup your asu theme (just the edj file) before you try this

 Hello,

 Do you have any place where you put the changes that you have made in every 
 daily image?
 http://downloads.openmoko.org/daily/testing


 I read a lot of emails from people telling that FreeRunner dont have the 
 basic things working...
 I have flash a lot of versions, to test and to find what is the best for me...


 And the last one, is the daily testing image with Om, from 11/12/2008.
 I can say that i'm very happy with this version, and is only testing, not a 
 release.

 I can make/receive calls, and send/receive sms - Basic to a mobile right?
 I have calculator, calendar, text editor, file browser, web Browser, 
 terminal, and a basic piano also :)

 I have a GPS receiver, that work great with TangoGPS, in a good place, i can 
 get a fix, on less than 5 minutes with GPS turned ON.
 I have Wifi, in my home and places with wireless i can use it... and works 
 great.
 Suspend/Resume, works great too.

 The battery life, is almost 2 days... 

 I think this is more than basic!

 Thanks for work!

 Samuel (Portugal)


   
Same here (already ha dit working like that with om2008.9, but the 
testing image is much faster)
been using the fr as a daily phone for 2 months now

 Hey Tony,
 One thing you my consider would be try install the
 'illume-keyboards-terminal' (found here:
 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Keyboard_Debate#How_to_install_the_illume_.28Raster.27s.29_keyboard_.3F).
  If you install the 'illume-config-illume' package, you will also be
 able to choose your default keyboard as well.

 This is what I've been using a lot and it comes with three keyboards
 you can flip between.  An 'intelli-type' keyboard (which is alright
 for SMS') and a matching numbers/symbols keyboard and then a terminal
 keyboard which is a tiny keyboard to be typing any kind of terminal
 commands with, but it's still useful.

 Until we can get any significant change in using the accelerometers to
 automatically rotate the interface and give us a bigger keyboard, this
 is what's available.


   

I CAN'T GET RID OF THAT F*CKING QTOPIA KEYBOARD!!!
followed the instructions, even tried to mess with qpe but after about 
15 minutes is keeps coming back.
how to disable this royal pain in the a**?

i like my phone but without a rasters keyboard it's pretty useless.
really i am in severe pain right now.
as much as i like the testing image, this is f*cked up sh*t.
sorry about the abusive language, but i'm thinking about throwing my neo 
against the wall as last resort to that evil black monster which is 
claimed to be a keyboard

 Chill out and flash something with a normal keyboard, like SHR.

that's the point, i like the new testing image (spent days configuring 
and customizing the official one, works flawlessly, but it is slow, that 
is why i switched to testing)
shr is a great image, but the telephony applications aren't talking 
with each other.
afaik they are currently working on this, so i wanted something that is 
fast and turns my fr into a fully featured phone...
