Re: Re: [2008.testing] GPS after resume
Further tests show that 1. after resume, Navit does not get another GPS fix 2. leaving Navit open, and on forcing a cold start with agpsui, agpsui does not even see the time signal (I assume Navit blocks it), but this is enough for Navit to get a fix So at least there is a workaround.

Re: [2008.testing] GPS after resume
2009/1/2 Marco Trevisan (Treviño) m...@3v1n0.net: I figure that this should be controlled by the kernel side. Simply the GPS chip is turned off and then on on suspend/resume. That's why on resuming it's like you've done a cold reset. There should be a thread about this on the kernel list... Maybe, but even agpsui doesn't play well on resume - the cold/warm/hot reset button do nothing. Restarting the application gets a normal cold start.

Re: Import Contacts

I started out by making the mistake of copying my Evolution db across...
I had my contacts in Outlook because I was using an HTC Kaiser...
Outlook-csv-Evolution-vcf-OM didn't work very well,

b. because the encoding got scrambled in places.
Therefore I tried to get Evolution out of the loop and wrote a little

normally my bag)

Re: CRCFAIL?
2008/7/18 Andy Green [EMAIL PROTECTED]: However, PMU driver was feeling this way before userspace got started and therefore before pid 1 existed. It turned out that Linux reacts to this situation by killing the nearest thing to hand, which was the JFFS2 garbage collection thread, with a variety of outcomes including failure to complete mount of rootfs. It's long fixed. Does this mean that we will see a kernel upgrade soon which doesn't show CRCFAILs?

Re: Reason for GPS problems found!
2008/7/15 Joerg Reisenweber [EMAIL PROTECTED]: The good news: *IF* all pans out, there's (or soon will be) a new kernel at Andy branch that stops SD-card clock when SDcard is idle. We hope this will almost cure the problem, at least reduce it to sth like you can't GPS while watching video from SD or the like (hope you can cope with that ;). This will still be a problem for those GPS applications loading big maps from SD, I assume. We're about to verify a hw-fix so you could even watch video and still have GPS positioning during that. So let's hope that this is a simple fix. Regards Jeff ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Updates
Am I the only one who hasn't got his head around exactly what gets updated where? As I understand it, you can flash 3 things: u-boot (the bootloader) the kernel the root filesystem Should I think of u-boot as the OpenMoko version of Grub? In which case why can't opkg update this? opkg can also update the kernel and the root filesystem, right? Advantages/disadvantages with the two approaches? Does flashing the root filesystem wipe out /home? If somebody provide me with the answers, I'll happily update the Getting_Started page on the wiki...

Re: Updates
2008/7/16 Mike Montour [EMAIL PROTECTED]: That's correct - u-boot is responsible for initializing the hardware (like a PC BIOS) as well as for loading and booting the kernel (like Grub). Thanks. I've updated the wiki. Regards Jeff ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Reason for GPS problems found!
2008/7/15 Mikko Rauhala [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Indeed that's a biggie... Here's hoping any kludgy but not-very-cumbersome fix will be found. (Let's wrap the µSD in tinfoil!) Or an external antenna?

Re: Accessing the freerunner filesystem
2008/7/11 Arne Zachlod [EMAIL PROTECTED]: for adding files on the freerunner i use gftp in ssh2 mode, that's very comfortable. There is probably a way to mount the FR filesystem with FUSE. Indeed http://wiki.vpslink.com/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Install_and_mount_FUSE_filesystems suggests that it is as easy as ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/directory /mount_point Jeff ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: GPS
2008/7/11 Alexander Paersch [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Just today I stumbled upon a page on the openmoko wiki: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FreeRunner_GPS_antenna_repair_SOP It was written this morning. Anybody tried this fix and can report whether this realy fixes the issue? These look like warranty-destroying repairs if you do them yourself.

Re: GPS
2008/7/10 simarillion [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Just have a look at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Gpsd Ah. Thanks. I hadn't spotted that. Why hasn't this been corrected in the gpsd package?

Re: GPS
I'm having some trouble getting GPS to work on my Freerunner Having installed gpsd and tangogps, I tried starting gpsd and got: Starting gpsd: No /dev/ttyS3 GPS device, aborting gpsd startup. Check /etc/default/gpsd and tangogps couldn't find the gps receiver I saw this irc log: http://www.hentges.net/tmp/logs/irc/%23openmoko/2008/February/20080203_openmoko.log So I tried this: gpsd -n /tmp/nmeaNP and tangogps could at least find the receiver, but didn't find any satellites. Is gpsd -n /tmp/nmeaNP necessary on the Freerunner? Is there another way? Why doesn't the init script work?

Re: freerunner unable to work with 3G SIMCards?
2008/7/7 Joachim Steiger [EMAIL PROTECTED]: after reading shawn lin's testreport i believe we really have a problem with the 1.8V sim cards then. too bad the one i tested has no voltage printed on (some sims have, this sadly doesnt). will try to find out next time i get near that sim. My German Blau SIM (On the back it says, amongst other things, 3V - does that mean volts?) does NOT work on my new GTA02, despite what is on http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Carriers One colleague's Dutch Orange SIM did work, but two other German Vodafone SIMs did not. One German and one Dutch T-Mobile SIM did not work, but a German Debitel (T-Mobile reseller) did. Nor did a 1 year old German O2 SIM. What new prepaid German SIMs are known to work? i.e. which prepaid German SIM that I can buy today will work in the FR? On the back of my Blau SIM there are two rows of alphanumerics: xx-xxx-xx-x xx 16K 3V #343 H73 I assume 16K is the storage capacity of the SIM and 3V the voltage. Any ideas what the rest means? Are there any security implications about sharing the top row of numbers in full? Would it be useful? Perhaps we can work out some way of telling from the info stamped on a SIM whether it will work in the FR or not.
