OWFS on $WRT-router
Hi, I tried this: http://owfs.sourceforge.net/WRT54G.html and it doesn't work for me. It looks really weird how the author connected the DS2480B, which runs at 5V directly to the UART, which provides only 3.3V. I think this would need some level-shifting. The datasheet also says the POL-Pin (Pin6) has to be tied to +5V if directly connected to the UART. I made a small schematic with some resistors as level shifters: http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/4611/ds2480bwrtmp0.png but I don't think I like it. It's said that doing level shifting is very power hungry. Any better ideas? -Chris ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Hi all, I wrote a little gsmd testing framework, with the hope it can be used to stabilize (lib)gsmd. You can find an initial release on: http://chmeee.dyndns.org/om/testing_gsmd.html NB: I cross-posted to three mailing lists to get exposure (everybody should be able to write tests, though you need AT command set knowledge), please choose wisely at which list you reply.

Re: New wiki page - Problems of typical "closed" phones
Sorry, I have updated that. AFAIK: Here (in Hungary) it is illegal to unlock your phone. Certainly you can buy unlocked phone for a higher price, but unlocking already locked ones (by "experts") is illegal. There are many people earning their money from this illegal activity though...

If all you want is to download and install the file from the project repository, the cool solution may be to type wget on OpenMoko console: wget http://projects.openmoko.org/frs/download.php/118/mokash_0.2-r0_armv4t.ipk and it downloads file directly into the phone. Of course, it is easier to do this in the remote ssh console, not directly on the phone. Surely the naming service must be set up on the phone or (dirty approach) edit /etc/hosts . To upload my own ipk's, I use scp without problems: scp gpv_0.1_armv4t.ipk [EMAIL PROTECTED]:gpv2.ipk This should work if the ssh works.

Re: Wiki - confusion
JW - Should i just go ahead and change the core structure to being correct and the rest will follow?Is there someone overlooking wiki structure? Yes, I think you can move ahead with those changes. Let's see what others are saying... It seems to me there is now a clear structure 1) Neo1973 has internal codename (GTA01xxx) 2) Freerunner has internal codename (GTA02xxx) That is correct. Is there someone overlooking wiki structure? We just hired a full time editor for the wiki. Her name is Brenda and she will start working after Chinese New Year (mid February). She has many years experience publishing and writing technical books. I'd say give her a few weeks to familiarize herself with the whole thing, then she will slowly start to 'edit' the wiki by cleaning up broken links, rearranging/grouping content, maybe doing some translations into Chinese, etc. If you like please get back to me around mid-February so I can introduce you to Brenda (she doesn't have an openmoko e-mail account yet). We are very determined to get the wiki into better shape. Brenda will help as an editor. We also try to improve things on the server. The wiki version we are using needs to be updated and improved. Search is abysmal. The theme doesn't look good. etc. But we have great content, and we will push more internal content into the wiki as well. Hope this helps, thanks a lot for your initiative! Feel free to make the changes you suggested, at least from my perspective it sounds good.

I changed a bit of section 1 of the FAQ page and started to look at tidying up the main pages at least to make this less confusing and I can do it the only problem is that i may break the pages/links of others This happens especially where the wiki page title needs to be changed. For example the Neo1973 page has loads of refs to GTA02 (which need moved to the, as yet blank Freerunner page) but it is linked to by 50 other pages many in other languages Should i just go ahead and change the core structure to being correct and the rest will follow?Is there someone overlooking wiki structure?
