Well, that might be true.. But the case might also be that the userbase will shrink if nothing is done. That depends on what people want from their hardware. The lack of a new type of user interface which some of us believe is far superior on a hand held device will at least make me think twice before buying a new OpenMoko.. I bought the GTA02 since I found what OpenMoko was doing a great thing and I wanted to support that good effort.. But if the hardware is always a couple or more generations behind the leading pack then it's not much use, then I'm just trying to help a hopeless cause. The phone is a hardware disabled toy. I certainly don't speak for everyone, since there are plenty of voices for the current solution as seen in this thread, but I think the user base will shrink steadily while the use of multi touch gets more and more users on the big platforms. It's the future as I see it, and either we place us in the future, or we place us in the past... With a platform as the OpenMoko we have that choice.

Yes, that's makes it a catch 22, because if you don't put together a hardware solution that is good enough, then the amount of people buying it will be small... And if you can't sell enough then you can't buy the good parts.. If that makes you aim low, then why bother at all? Besides that, GTA03 is no longer subject to change - isn't it stupid to be making plans (especially when you're not in a position to do so) for GTA04 or 05, when the hardware available by that time might be quite different from what is on the market now? I know that the GTA03 is probably all decided hardware wise... But I think this might be a good discussion anyway. And the market is big, apple has shown that...

However, as I see it, if you make this argument it means that you want a phone that works just like your desktop computer, but which you can carry along easily.. Maybe an EeePC is better suited? I have an Aspire One, but it's too big to carry all the time. I'm looking for something to replace my old and dying Psion 5. I had high hopes when EPOC32 became Symbian that a suitable smartphone would appear, but one of the first things they did was to remove the office type apps. The current OpenMoko compromise is not suitable for running a spreadsheet application or a word processor. For you maybe, but Abiword and Gnumeric are working fine for me. If you want those applications then you need to have some sort of keyboard. When the Ilume keyboard is active you only have perhaps 60% left of the screen. That means your application only have _half_ a VGA display. This practically eliminates the pro that people here have been bringing up, the full VGA display. The Psion's only half-VGA and it works fine there. The Psion does make better use of the screen space, but that's an application issue. Then add the fact that using the Ilume keyboard with a spreadsheet is, well, daunting. I can't imagine the pain I would feel if I had to go through that ordeal. For you maybe, but it's fine for me in light use. If I need to do anything heavier there's always the Bluetooth keyboard.

True, that's my own opinion. I think the display is too small and the input method is too hard. But I must confess; I generally don't use anything other than Emacs and Eclipse for anything close to word processing and one of the things with emacs is that you really need a keyboard with it.. :-P If you want those applications then you need to have some sort of keyboard.

The Psion does make better use of the screen space, but that's an application issue. Which means that you would still be happy if you had a slightly bigger display and a slightly thicker stylus, right? Maybe even happier if you could use both your thumbs to push buttons on the on-screen keyboard. (For shift/alt keys etc. But of course, that could be solved by adding a couple of more real buttons..)

Either a really big capacitive screen with no boarders or a small hi res screen as currently (I like it) with either a stylus or a keypad. I would vote for the same screen as currently used or at least the same quality but bigger and a keypad. Finger use for the current screen is pretty much a failure. (not impossible but as far as text input goes pretty much failed) I admit I voted for capacitive screen without consider all the aspect. My primary reason was more protected screen and force finger friendly (which more or less not exist now, more a software issue). I have a pda I use mostly for car navigation the bigger screen is nice there. I also use it for connect to internet, use it as voip phone, when possible, using wifi. It does not have build in gps what was main reason why I bought my neo (and better portability). I like the size on neo maybe a little slimmer and I dont want it to be bigger because then it would be more trouble some to bring with me all over. My pda is to big I can just squeeze it into my jacket inside pocket but I have often accidentally activated it often with drain battery. My pda have the normal 5 navigation buttons + 4 application buttons below screen. I never use the navigation buttons only the 4 application button mostly because I can program them to whatever to activate things even other programs use the full screen and no hide function. I like the size and resolution of current neo and the fact that it can be used for stylus in case programs not finger friendly even it be rare. Maybe the edge could be smaller so a finger easily can press all the way to the edge. I can see the benefit for a few buttons to assist a GUI that need a bigger screen area. If I just needed a small linux computer to run desktop like applications then I wanted a full keyboard but then whole benefit of small size and very easy portability is gone then. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Ohm Law says: V = R * I - I = V/R, and if R-0 then I-oo In practice if you power a load with a little impedance (in real systems the load is not always only resistive) the current requested will grow and the source could be damaged (try to short circuit a normal battery, you'll see a flash and if you maintain the circuit closed you'll meld the battery). This is why you should not ask 1000mA from the USB port (for example) unless you're sure the hardware could give it. Bye :) Yes but I also have some car adapters that did not mind being shorted (12v to 5v adapter, given for 350mA). So I doubt a device wanting 1A would be worst than a short circuit... but what would be the output in such a case I do not know. According to the MAX756 datasheet (the step-up converter used in the minty boost AFAICS), the switching mosfet should be protected due to the operating principle: The coil is shorted to ground until the current reaches about 1A, then switched off automatically (and then the coil discharges in series to the battery, effectively boosting the voltages). So the only things relevant to a overload situation are the coil rating and the diode rating. If both are capable of handling 1A continously, then switching the Freerunner to 1A can't break anything. The 1N5818 can handle 1A and the coil used has a saturation current of 1.5A. (However, it is _not_ short-circuit-proof, since in that case the current would flow directly from the battery over coil and diode to ground and will likely destroy the diode first) Switching noise is nothing to worry about (Switching frequency depends on load and battery voltage). Of course thermal dissipation can still be an issue. you should use a polyfuse, to make device resistant against short on output /j signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Nevertheless booting from SD failed, I chose a corresponding menu item from NOR loader (load from SD fat+ext2) and started to receive multiple error messages: # right after load start s3c2410_udc: debugfs dir creation failed -19 # next lines mixed with each other mmcblk0: error -110 sending read/write command EXT2-fs error (device mmcblk0p2) ex2_get_inode: unable to read inode block - inode=12345 block=67890 Buffer I/O error on device mmcblk0p2, logical block 0 # and partial success messages among them Plus multiple Input/Output errors while reading /etc/rc.d/* files and writing to /etc/volatile or something.

[2008.x] 'opkg upgrade' interrupted.
Hey all. I'm was just installing a stable 2008.9 image. The only changes made is that a terminal is installed and the /etc/opkg/* is changed to pointing to the testing repository instead. Then, from the local terminal, I run opkg update and then opkg upgrade. The upgrade is working for some good 20-30 minutes downloading and installing new packages until X is shut down. Apparently opkg wanted to restart X or something? Then I figure I'll do it over ssh instead, so I log in and run 'opkg upgrade' again. To my surprise I see that it starts all over again, downloading and installing (?) the same packages over again. Didn't the previous upgrade just do that? Are the downloaded and installed files stored in a temporary directory in the meantime? I checked the used disk-space and found it to be only 81-82 MB. Didn't check how much was used before the first run though. Or does the opkg wait with updating its database of installed packages until the complete upgrade has finished? Which means I by now actually have the latest and greatest, just opkg doesn't know it is? Anyway, the upgrade via ssh failed miserably as well. Of course dropbear had to be restarted, I lost connection and opkg was interrupted (again). Next try is screen, which is currently running, downloading and installing the exact same packages done by the previous two upgrades. Is there some way to make opkg continue where interrupted or some way of specifying I don't want a certain service restarted (like dropbear) ? -Ivar Mossin ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: Creating a distro on a sim card
Have a look at /etc/defaults/dropbear - does it lock ssh to usb0 only?

Just out of curiosity, is there some work being done on this front ? A PIM interface is on the roadmap for FSO, but I don't know if work has started yet. It is likely to use an existing PIM dbus API, possibly with extensions if required. Evolution Data Server and Akonadi spring to mind as contenders. Telepathy may have a place too, though its VoIP capabilities overlap somewhat with the call control interface we already have. I think Telepathy is a must-have, personally. j ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: [2008.x] 'opkg upgrade' interrupted.
On Sat, 22 Nov 2008 23:46:38 +0100, Ivar Mossin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey all. I'm was just installing a stable 2008.9 image. The only changes made is that a terminal is installed and the /etc/opkg/* is changed to pointing to the testing repository instead. Then, from the local terminal, I run opkg update and then opkg upgrade. The upgrade is working for some good 20-30 minutes downloading and installing new packages until X is shut down. Apparently opkg wanted to restart X or something? Then I figure I'll do it over ssh instead, so I log in and run 'opkg upgrade' again. To my surprise I see that it starts all over again, downloading and installing (?) the same packages over again. Didn't the previous upgrade just do that? Are the downloaded and installed files stored in a temporary directory in the meantime? I checked the used disk-space and found it to be only 81-82 MB. Didn't check how much was used before the first run though. Or does the opkg wait with updating its database of installed packages until the complete upgrade has finished? Which means I by now actually have the latest and greatest, just opkg doesn't know it is? Anyway, the upgrade via ssh failed miserably as well. Of course dropbear had to be restarted, I lost connection and opkg was interrupted (again). Next try is screen, which is currently running, downloading and installing the exact same packages done by the previous two upgrades. Is there some way to make opkg continue where interrupted or some way of specifying I don't want a certain service restarted (like dropbear) ? -Ivar Mossin The short solution - 'opkg update' and 'opkg install dropbear' from terminal, then 'opkg upgrade' via ssh. opkg is imperfect... j ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
