USB Host mode and OS2008
How is it supposed to work? I flashed my N800 with OS2008 for N800 Beta and plugged in an USB keyword (as I've read it would work without a powered HUB) but nothing happened.

Re: Is it possible to make a well-behaved pyGame app with maemo-python ?
By well-behaved I mean an app which appears as an icon in the taskbar like a proper Hildon app. I have copied and modified .desktop and .service files of such apps made with PyGTK, but pyGame seems different. If the .desktop doesn't reference an osso service, the app starts from the menu, but there is no icon in the taskbar (and no xx is starting during launch). If it does, the xx is starting message appears for some time, but the app never starts. Is it possible to get this right ? If so, is there a Howto somewhere ? Yes, it's indeed possible. Kagu ( http://www.kagumedia.com ) is a pygame app; you might want to check it out.

gftp port to maemo: some questions
Hi, I have hildonized gFTP (see gftp.org) for my brand new N810. See screenshots here: http://www.screenshots.cc/view_image/b3e341728/shot-2007-11-27-16-53-42.png http://www.screenshots.cc/view_image/dd8fd1727/shot-2007-11-27-16-52-32.png Font size needs to be reduced to be more usable but it works. What has been done: - main window hildonized; - menu hildonized; - added hardware fullscreen button function; - obviously fixed compilation error - update debian rules to make debian package What remains to be done: - reduce font size to me more usable (UI has lots of items) My questions: 1/ When I just installed the package, the hildon theme was not applied to the application, and the icon was not appearing in the menu until a reboot. Shall I call some script in the post install script? 2/ How could this software land in the extra repository and would someone be willing to maintain this package (debian packaging is hell for me)? I need a mentor to control what I have done. For example make dist-clean breaks the compilation so I disabled it in the debian/rules (autoconf problem I think). I was not able to keep the .orig.tar.gz and generate the diff to produce nice debian source packages, etc... 3/ I can upload everything if there is a community ftp available.

Re: web based local application GUIs
How about a GPS daemon similar to gpsd but with the capabiltiy to speak HTTP? Would be nice if people making webapps could include a javascript source from the localhost that would give back an object with GPS info. I've already written very lightweight implementations of this in Java and Python, however both rely on gpsd. I'm guessing one for the n810 could just call to the GPS APIs. I'm sure there will be security concerns, but it should be easy to turn off and on, and wouldn't be a big deal for a mobile device. The daemon also doesn't need to give a highly accurate latitude and longitude to still be very useful. Luis Zoran Kolic [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 1.) Rpc (aka web services) 2.) Dbus 3.)

Re: web based local application GUIs
local search will not talk to the GPS unit connected to a 770,800,or 810. You can go to local.google.com and put in a location, then do something like search for the nearest pizza point. Works great. Also some windows mobile and j2me phones/PDAs can download a google maps app that talks to the gps device. But what I'm talking about is a standard that any website can use automatically by embedding something like script src=http://localhost:2947/gpsinfo; into their page and getting back a javascript object with the latitude longitude info.

Re: web based local application GUIs
Hi, why not ? It's a very popular gps monitoring application to send gps data to www server from gps-enabled cell phone, over GPRS. It works fine for car, personal monitoring. 2 years ago I run such server and could watch tracks of 100 car live in maps application. There is nothing special to send gps data that way. To have local search you can run middle-server communicating with Google local and Nokia tablet, residing gps data and query string and sending back search results. Why do you mean to introduce your idea as a standard ? Some ppl need some privacy from time to time. There is another solution. Under latest EUC proposal operator of cell phone and manufacturer of sim card could be obliged to incorporate gps chip into sim card to let operators of alarm phone to know exact geoposition of a calling party on a map. Another idea and solution already known in PDA +cell phone + gps market. I see no problem to incorporate your ideas into N770, N800, N810 (not smartphones).

Re: web based local application GUIs
One of our original ideas for the MWOW project (http://museum.mit.edu/mwow ) was to have the local web app talk to a local web proxy which then adds location info to the HTTP request and sends the request to a remote server. That way you can use the on-board linux tools to query a GPS, use wifi location, bluetooth beacons, etc. The thing that immediately got in the way (on the 770) was that if you were actually connected to a WiFi access point, the ability to read signal strengths from the wifi radio got worse. Also, using the iwtools would cause the connection to drop some of the time. Regarding standards - there is the GeoClue project (http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/GeoClue ) which tries to hide the locationing device details under a uniform interface. On the search side, there are no real standards for how to construct the geo portion of a search. OpenSearch does have a geo extension proposal (http://www.opensearch.org/Specifications/OpenSearch/Extensions/Geo/1.0/Draft_1 ) And, Darius, regarding your question about the MIT Museum, no we don't have anything from those projects/groups but we do have other cool stuff.

By a coincidence I have both 770 and 800 on my desk now, neither running the latest OS version and both, indeed, have localhost interface up like the above (/sbin/ifconfig gives same output) So I remember incorrectly -- the real reason is (probably) that when socket(2) system call is started, these Internet Tablets tries to make internet connection up (either via wlan, or bt-connected phone) and if that cannot be made, socket(2) fails. There is no way knowing at socket(2) time that user wants to connect(2) 127.0/8 addresses. There is probably good reason to wrap socket() instead of connect(), bind() (and some other system calls.. timeouts maybe...). Well, I'm (quickly) writing this without checking earlier discussion of the matter. The situation is probably well-explained there (?). ak.
