Hi, I’ve just release a new version of omnewrotate (OpenPGP signature), the ‘Lazy Edition’ because it uses so much less CPU than any version I did before. Oh, I forgot to mention it in the release commit, but at least with FSO M4 I’m getting a very stable rotation BUT if the screen looks garbled, please wait a few seconds until the graphic user interface adjusts to the screen changes. I don’t think I can do much about that… From the ChangeLog: 2008-11-19 - 0.5.0 - Lazy edition * uses a second thread for reading the accellerometer packets * drops Fabian's changes (not that they weren't good, just not needed any more) * adds flags (look at display_help() or ./rotate -h) * drops packets with 0 value coordinates (I got bogus packets like that so I decided to drop them, if you feel you get good packets with 0 value, you can use '-0' as an argument to take them in account). * top -d 1 -p PID shows 0.0% CPU usage (of omnewrotate) even during rotation * seems to waste a little too much memory (some stuff could be done with one number and bitwise operations instead of several numbers, I wonder how much that will improve and if it's worth the effort...) * only output outside of debug mode are real errors -- This statement is false. Today is Pungenday, the 31st day of The Aftermath in the YOLD 3174 + No matter how much you do, you never do enough -- unknown + Whatever you do will be insignificant, | but it is very important that you do it -- Gandhi + So let's do it...? _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
