Re: How to install cli-framework on my Neo FreeRunner
Thanks a lot for the reply. How can I use the dbus and get the values from the fone. For example. I want to write a python code that will give the the IMEI number and manufacturer details of my fone. how can i do that. I understand that once i have any of the FSO or SHR etc I can do that. Cant i just do it now on my phone without using them. Isnt there any feature in 2008.12 that will let me query the dbus directly. Is the only option to install. I am sorry if I am asking so many questions but i really need to know as I am very interested in working on this phone. --- On Fri, 3/6/09, Al Johnson wrote: > From: Al Johnson > Subject: Re: How to install cli-framework on my Neo FreeRunner > To: community@lists.openmoko.org > Date: Friday, March 6, 2009, 11:31 AM > > -Inline Attachment Follows- > > 2008.12 uses elements of QtExtended > to provide its phone functionality.

Re: How to install cli-framework on my Neo FreeRunner
2008.12 uses elements of QtExtended to provide its phone functionality. You can't simply install the freesmartphone.org framework on 2008.12 as the two will compete over resources such as the GSM interface, probably breaking both in the process. If you want to use the freesmartphone.org framework you will need to use a distro that supports it. That could be FSO, SHR, Debian, or possibly Gentoo. These can be installed to internal NAND, or to a partition on the SD card. You could even have a dual boot or multiboot setup - I have Android in NAND, and FSO milestone 4.1, SHR Unstable and FSO unstable on different SD partitions. These links should help you install your preferred distro: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Flashing_the_Neo_FreeRunner http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Booting_from_SD For FSO you should probably start with the Milestone 5.1 release: http://downloads.freesmartphone.org/fso-stable/milestone5.1/om-gta02/ SHR has install instructions here: http://www.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/Install Debian has a chunk of documentation here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Debian On Friday 06 March 2009, sandilya b wrote: > I am sorry.

Re: How to install cli-framework on my Neo FreeRunner
I am sorry. I think I did not understand what you said. Ok let me explain what I am doing. I am SSH'ing into my phone from my laptop and trying to run some python codes which will let me access the dbus for some phone specific features like IMEI number etc. However to get these values I was asked to use the cli-framework as it contains functions through which i can easily perform the activity. Now can I install all the features provided when I have only few present on my phone. -Sandy --- On Fri, 3/6/09, David Reyes Samblas Martinez wrote: > From: David Reyes Samblas Martinez > Subject: Re: How to install cli-framework on my Neo FreeRunner > To: "List for Openmoko community discussion" > Date: Friday, March 6, 2009, 9:18 AM > for use cli-framework you need the > framework :), > Actual Distros who have it , FSO, SHR, Debian and his > derivates, ¿Gentoo? > > 2009/3/6 sandilya b : > > > > I am having OM 2008.12 but it has only a few features > when i checked the /usr/share/dbus-1/ folder. > > > > --- On Fri, 3/6/09, Timo Juhani Lindfors > wrote: > > > >> From: Timo Juhani Lindfors > >> Subject: Re: How to install cli-framework on my > Neo FreeRunner > >> To: "List for Openmoko community discussion" > > >> Date: Friday, March 6, 2009, 1:27 AM > >> sandilya b > >> writes: > >> > I just got an openmoko freerunner phone > >> and want to install > >> > cli-framework on it to use the various > >> features of the d-bus > >> > system.

for use cli-framework you need the framework :), Actual Distros who have it , FSO, SHR, Debian and his derivates, ¿Gentoo? 2009/3/6 sandilya b : > > I am having OM 2008.12 but it has only a few features when i checked the > /usr/share/dbus-1/ folder. > > --- On Fri, 3/6/09, Timo Juhani Lindfors wrote: > >> From: Timo Juhani Lindfors >> Subject: Re: How to install cli-framework on my Neo FreeRunner >> To: "List for Openmoko community discussion" >> Date: Friday, March 6, 2009, 1:27 AM >> sandilya b >> writes: >> > I just got an openmoko freerunner phone >> and want to install >> > cli-framework on it to use the various >> features of the d-bus >> > system.
