WSOD (ticket #1841) (unofficial) survey question

2008-11-09 Thread Greg
Hi,

I am one of those who are affected by the WSOD issue. Until about 2 months 
ago, I was never affected by it, but now if my display is blanked for over 
15 minutes I get the WSOD.

After looking over the comments in the WSOD ticket and considering my own 
experience, I am wondering is this not a damage issue.  You see, around 2 
months ago my phone was knocked from my hand onto the pavement.  At the time 
I considered myself lucky that the screen did not crack, and noticed no 
issues.  But two comments in the ticket history got my wondering: The first 
is a comment by leachim that the problem went away after the physical 
display screen was replaced; and the second was a comment by jurg saying 
that he stopped seeing the WSOD if he kept the phone warm.

My phone does not exhibit the WSOD problem if it is warm.  I did this test by 
leaving the phone on top of a cheap DVD player which has a warm patch, 
suspending the phone for an hour, resuming, suspending for 3 hours, resuming, 
removing the phone from the heat source, suspending for 1 hour and resuming.  
The WSOD problem only manifested only the final resume.  Without heat, the 
WSOD issue always mainfiests after 15 minutes or more of screen blanking.  I 
used suspend to make sure that the screen is blanked, but I don't believe 
suspend/resume is the cause - I think it is related to blanking.

I previously have found and fixed mechanical faults with electrical systems 
that present or disappear with heat as components come into or out of contact 
due to heating, so I am wondering if there is a possible damage issue here.

My question is:  For those of you who experience the WSOD issue: Have you ever 
dropped your phone?

If you would be so kind as to reply off-list, I'll post the results in a week.

Regards,

Greg.

Hi Greg,

I have a brand new device (2 weeks old!) and sinve I installed 2008.9
i do face WSOD. Never dropped the device! This issue is a show stopper
as it prevents to use it as a phone.

to the developers: PLEASE give the highest priority to that.

Thanks

Tony

 I can switch between device and host mode in the console without

 Isn't it possible to just implement the switch between usb device and

when i included usb icon in the older version it was just to show

selling my Freerunner

2008-11-09 Thread Katrin Tomanek
Hi,

as I hardly ever found enough time to play around with my FR I now 
decided to sell it.

Its the original GTA02 (bought August 2008) and comes with the default 
goodies: headset (unused), laser stylus, phone pouch, 512MB microSD 
Card, adapter, USB connectivity cable, etc.

If interested, please send me an email. I would preferably sell it to 
somebody in Germany due to lower shipping costs.

cheers,
Katrin

I think this would be a nice feature. At the moment i made two shell
scripts to do this, but it would be easier to do this with your panel
plugin. And when the g_file_storage module removal works it could just
be added to the usb icon. :)

 I don't know if/how you can do that.  But you can place a window  
 at the
 very forefront that hides everything else and grabs all events.

 after all, it's an X/kernel issue -- so, probably below /sys  
 there's an
 interface. but shouldn't frameworkd handle that kind of things?

afaik it's a krnl-issue and some time ago i read someting about an  
interface in /sys which was disabled for some reason i currently  
can't remember.

xlock etc are unable to give me what i want:
a running FR in my pocket with totally disabled touch not wasting  
energy on display and backlight

about framworkd: i will wait what new features are included in ms4

Re: (OM2008.9) Weird death on connecting USB

 Hi all,

 Been running OM2008.9 for a while (from uSD) and that's pretty okay.
 Just now however I noticed:
 After having the FR on for about a day, I connected the USB cable to the
 PC. The FR screen showed for a moment, went black and remained that way.
 I had to pull the battery to force a reboot.

 Is this known behaviour? Will that not happen when I flash the FR with
 this?

minimo segfaults when surfing to ssl sites with non-standard ports

2008-11-09 Thread Peter Nijs
To be able to use the wireless lan in my college I have to authenticate myself 
thrue an ssl encrypted site. When I use minimo for that (the only browser 
that knows something about ssl on the freerunner) it segfaults.

Attached to this mail is the output file of #wget http://www.google.be . You 
can see the browser will be redirected to an ssl-encrypted site on port 8081, 
at which point minimo segfaults. I don't get the chance to see the 
authentication form.

When I am completely connected to the internet and i surf to a self hosted 
ssl-site on port 44344 it also segfaults.

This is particularly nasty because now I can't use the internet at all in my 
college. Does anybody know where I should start looking for a solution, or 
anybody who knows a workaround to get authenticated?

sincerly yours,
depeje

Connect your FR with USB to a computer with access to Internet and SSH
to the FR; that should allow you to follow the procedure; check the Wiki
for how to do this and how to configure USB networking.

And please, assemble your email in some better (readable) way; I will
not answer a next one like this;

How does this setup work with suspend ?

Does it work to have as the every day phone ? Or does it suffer from
the regular flaws that sometimes it does not wake up from suspend on

FDOM is a good dmonstration of what can be done, but I encountered exactly
the same instabilities/bugs/slow downs. This is why I keep Qtopia for now
(waiting for a good GPS application..)

2008/11/9 Atilla Filiz [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Hello
 I was trying my FR as my primary phone for one week. It went good with
 QTextended 4.4.1. Today, I decided to try FDOM. It is really nice that it
 comes withh the apss and fixes I would manually install anyway but it
 occasionally freezes, doesn't receive calls in time, and some apps(remoko,
 moocow etc.) simply won't start. i read really good comments on it so i was
 expecting a better put up collection. Is this normal or am I the only one. I
 flashed 081023 image with latest 2008.9 kernel.
 happy hacking

QTextended 4.4.1. Today, I decided to try FDOM. It is really nice that it
comes withh the apss and fixes I would manually install anyway but it
occasionally freezes, doesn't receive calls in time, and some apps(remoko,
moocow etc.) simply won't start. i read really good comments on it so i was
expecting a better put up collection. Is this normal or am I the only one. I
flashed 081023 image with latest 2008.9 kernel.
happy hacking

distro woes

2008-11-09 Thread Franky Van Liedekerke
Hi,

today I decided to give qtextended another go, but the wiki page
mentions some things I couldn't figure out in the end:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Qtopia_/_Qt_Extended_on_FreeRunner links
to
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2008-November/035245.html
that says to use a certain remade qtextended rootfs with the latest
mwester kernel. And I wonder which kernel that would be: the stable one
mentioned on http://moko.mwester.net/dl.html#kernels (from 3 Oct), or
the stable one mentioned on http://moko.mwester.net/download/ (from 4
Nov)?

Also, could somebody tell me which kernel goes with the qtextended on
fso rootfs mentioned on http://moko.mwester.net/dl.html#kernels ? And
what is the advantage for using this rootfs and kernel combo compared
with the official qtextended one?

whitespace going missing on wikipages

2008-11-09 Thread BrendaWang
Dear community:
Recently , while  you edit wiki pages, the white space at the beginning 
or end will be going missing.

Once broken it's hard to fix with adding whitespace again.
So , while you want to use the whitespace to format your code/command , please 
use pre ... /pre sytax.
I guess this problem was cause by TagCloud extension. 
I already ask our IT Guys work on this , before they find the solution, feel 
free to use pre.

Sorry for the inconvenient. 


Brenda

Re: Booting from large microSD (SDHC) [success]

2008-11-09 Thread Lothar Behrens

Thanks,

I had some more look about other cards about 8GB, but if there are  
more users having success,

I will buy this card.

Especially when the eaten MBR problem was only once a problem. Was it ?

Thanks

Hello list members,
here another FR success story: Booting and usage of a large 16GB SDHC
works!

My configuration and recipe:
- QtExtend on flash
- Debian on microSD (ext2+ext2) [1]
- u-boot daily (8 Nov 2008) from [2]
- Applied configure-uboot.sh from [3]
- Kernel for Debian from [4] (but the kernel should not matter)
- microSD card:
 Vendor: SanDisk
 Model: SDSDQ-016G-E11M
 Size: 16GB
 Speed: Class2

With this configuration I encountered first this error (output from
minicom, /dev/ttyACM0) when I tried to boot directly (i.e. just  
pressed

power on the FR):

Note that mmcinit reports a false size [5].
Booting manually from that point worked well:

Then I modified the configure-uboot.sh, entered some idle time to let
the SDHC card settle after mmcinit and applied configure-uboot.sh  
again

to the FR:

--- 8 --- snap ---

Two seconds settle time is suitable for all boot situations (warm and
cold boot, powered by usb or on battery). Tested. Works. :-D

Note: There is still an issue with the suspend mode [6]. But my MBR  
was

not eaten (until now ;-) ). I was able to fix a mangled filesystem on
the card with a fsck.ext2 -y /dev/mmcblk0p2 after booting the Linux  
from

flash.

Enjoy!

 That sounds quite unlikely, even if you had configured your GSM
 to send the data without encryption how would your analog TV set
 decompress the digital (and compressed) audio stream?


 It might have been a hoax as well. If I remember it right, it was
 the operator's fault. From the video footage, only some words were
 understandable. On the other hand, I remember watching encoded
 audio + video from a locked channel with a satellite tuner. The
 quality is *very* poor, but it can be understood at times.

 I believe nowadays TV sets are sold with the circuitry to decode
 digital data (the switching to digital land infrastructure), but I
 don't remember if it was the case there.

it isn't just a operator-fault.
http://wiki.thc.org/gsm#head-1d4386f26b54c1890bdb6b181b6293c3b9b5af62
i read a article about this group. they could crack gsm-connection's
in 2 hours without some cleartext. another issue in my eyes is the
possibility of the provider to listen all calls, read all sms.

i think, it isn't so much work to make a symetric crypt-possibility
for special peoble as example (person a say's person b the code
directly, so both ore more invited peoble's know the key and could
encode/decode the messenges)..

in my eyes, security is very important, and privacy in the
mobile-phone-world doesn't exist. if i had enough time and expirience,
i would programm by myself, but until i had this, it's could been 1-3
years later. :/

Re: WSOD (ticket #1841) (unofficial) survey question

2008-11-09 Thread Klaus Kurzmann
* Greg [EMAIL PROTECTED] [081109 11:16]:
 Hi,

 I am one of those who are affected by the WSOD issue. Until about 2 months 
 ago, I was never affected by it, but now if my display is blanked for over 
 15 minutes I get the WSOD.
lucky you - I get WSoD when suspended/blanked for more than 1 minute ;)
And this from the beginning when I got my freerunner in august. I
immediately reflashed it, so I don't know, if the original 2007 stack
would have shown the WSoD also...

 After looking over the comments in the WSOD ticket and considering my own 
 experience, I am wondering is this not a damage issue.  You see, around 2 
 months ago my phone was knocked from my hand onto the pavement.  At the time 
 I considered myself lucky that the screen did not crack, and noticed no 
 issues.  But two comments in the ticket history got my wondering: The first 
 is a comment by leachim that the problem went away after the physical 
 display screen was replaced; and the second was a comment by jurg saying 
 that he stopped seeing the WSOD if he kept the phone warm.
I just tried the warm theory and put my freerunner sleeping on a warm
and cosy place - resumed after 5 minutes and got a nice WSoD.

 My phone does not exhibit the WSOD problem if it is warm.  I did this test by 
 leaving the phone on top of a cheap DVD player which has a warm patch, 
 suspending the phone for an hour, resuming, suspending for 3 hours, resuming, 
 removing the phone from the heat source, suspending for 1 hour and resuming.  
 The WSOD problem only manifested only the final resume.  Without heat, the 
 WSOD issue always mainfiests after 15 minutes or more of screen blanking.  I 
 used suspend to make sure that the screen is blanked, but I don't believe 
 suspend/resume is the cause - I think it is related to blanking.

 I previously have found and fixed mechanical faults with electrical systems 
 that present or disappear with heat as components come into or out of contact 
 due to heating, so I am wondering if there is a possible damage issue here.

 My question is:  For those of you who experience the WSOD issue: Have you 
 ever 
 dropped your phone?
Never dropped it.

 If you would be so kind as to reply off-list, I'll post the results in a week.

 Regards,

 Greg.

Thank you for doing this
