Re: MP3 to OGG converter

2009-01-10 Thread Joel Newkirk
Be aware that converting mp3->ogg or the reverse will usually incur a loss
of quality.  Since they use utterly different lossy algorithms, you
compound the artifacts when you recode.  Despite ogg frequently being
smaller for the same quality as an mp3, expect larger files if you intend
to preserve the quality present in the mp3 original. (coming from a
lossless source I always choose ogg, but if the source is already mp3 I
rarely convert as I've been unhappy with the results too many times - then
again I have picky ears)

That said, yes, ffmpeg is a good choice for converting.  :)

Yes, flash the uboot.  

GPS should work reliably outdoors with a pretty clear view of most of the
sky.  Once you know that works, then try other locations.  For myself, I
get indoor fix only in one room of my house, and it takes a long time.  If
I get a fix outside first it can sometimes keep it once inside, always in
that one GPS-friendly room.

"iwlist eth0 scan" will show visible APs.

I've actually had good results with mofi for finding and connecting to
wireless networks - but it offers no way to disconnect... I usually use
commandline "ifup eth0", having set up similarly to
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Wifi#WPA - note that that's not just WPA,
wpa_supplicant.conf allows you to define secure and non-secure networks
alike, including unsecured 'any' network.  Provided you've itemized
protected networks correctly and included an unprotected 'any', if you're
in range of any viable wifi when you type 'ifup eth0' you will usually
connect successfully.  Failing that, try 'ifdown eth0' and 'ifup eth0'
again.

python-elementary missing (also concerning opkg.org)

2009-01-10 Thread Risto H. Kurppa
Hi!

I tried to install osmupdater from opkg.org (
Trying to run it, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/osmupdater.py", line 2, in
import elementary, os,time, sys
ImportError: No module named elementary

ok, so python-elementary is missing.

I tried to look for it in the repositories and this is the only place
I was able to find it:
http://shr.bearstech.com/shr-testing/ipk/armv4t/ - in the SHR
repositories..

so:
1) Why is it missing from the openmoko repositories? It looks like
that it's been there before (for example this tries to install it from
the repositories: http://www.opkg.org/package_94.html so I take it's
worked at some stage..)
2) is it safe to install the SHR python-elementary
3) is it OK to upload programs to opkg.org that require packages like
this that are not easily available?

Thanks!

nandwrite from inside fr: u-boot, boot-env, flash? was: Re: [2007.2 fr] boot prolems

2009-01-10 Thread arne anka
> i needed to have a cellphone for a lifeline.

i am not quite sure, the fr is ready for that critical mission yet, you  
probably should keep a little, simple cell phone somewhere handy as backup!

for flashing from the running fdr: the opkg kernel packages do it, using  
nandwrite.
it would be very interesting if on of the hw guys (andy?) could point out  
if the procedure works for flashing u-boot and flash (when running from  
sd), too.

for booting from sd: to get there you still need the boot menu -- unles  
even the boot env could be flashed from inside fr and, additionally, the  
menu could made show up by default (and boot the first entry after a  
timeout).

so, basically the question to the more expereinced members of the list:
what exactly could we do with nandwrite and friends of mtdutils?


ps: just for informational purposes -- below the script _i_ use to flash a  
debian kernel to the kernel partition.

KIDS! DON'T DO THAT AT HOME!!!

#!/bin/sh
# cat /proc/mtd returns addresses and names of partitions
MTD_KERNEL_PARTITION=`cat /proc/mtd | grep kernel | cut -d':' -f1`
MTD_KERNEL_PARTITION=/dev/$MTD_KERNEL_PARTITION

That (0x:0x) doesn't look promising.  Was the FR still
displaying its boot menu when you tried that?  ( - which is the state
in which it responds to dfu-util)  Note the bit in the wiki about only

I don't think that's true - iirc the default boot command is just another 
environment setting, so you could change it to boot from SD instead of NAND. 
You could probably get it to do something other than boot too, but I don't 
remember if there's a command to display the menu that you could use.

that's what i wrote later on -- but to change that setting you have to be  
in the nor mode ...
i mentioned the sd because it came up as means of flashing, and with a  
default configuration you need for booting from sd a hold/press aux/pwr  
combination as well as for nor mode.

python-elementary is currently available through normal openembedded. If 
you are on a distribution made by openmoko, you currently will not have 
python-elementary, because actually they don´t merge there branch with 
the master branch of openembedded.
I think opkg.org is missing a flag to show for which distribution the 
package was made. Only pointing on the dependency on shr.bearstech.com 
isn't a solution.

I wouldn't recommend to try to write u-boot on GTA01 using this method
unless you have a debug board. One user has bricked his GTA01
recently.

It needs further investigation. GTA02 works with NAND differently, so
it can be tested only on GTA01.

Re: [2008.12] problem flashing u-boot

flash/2008.9/rootfs.jffs2
flash/2008.12/uImage.bin

flash/qtextended/.

When I do:
# cd flash
# ./dfu-util -a kernel -R -D 2008.12/uImage.bin

I also get No such Alternate Setting: "kernel", but when I do this:

# cd 2008.12
# ../dfu-util -a kernel -R -D uImage.bin

it just works. For me this is true for -a kernel and -a rootfs. I haven't 
tried uboot the "wrong" way.

[debian] RFH to create a usable illume setup

2009-01-10 Thread Nikita V. Youshchenko
Hi

I've put together a set of armel debian packages, including latest Albin's 
e17 package with illume included. See 
http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/smartphones-userland/2009-January/000877.html

Yes, illume may be started on Debian now.
No, it is not usable yet.

Attempt to start it (by putting 'exec enlightenment_start' into 
~/.xsession) shows lots of issues:
- font is tiny; attempt to enlarge it from setting dialog does not change 
font in illume's title bar;
- no applicatrion icons - can't start anything;
- no keyboard.

I'm seaching for helo from people familiar with illume on how to configure 
it properly. Given information is found, I will probably be able to build 
a ready-for-users package.

SHR packages for Debian are in the make. They will include ophonekitd.
Once that’s done (I was about to make an estimate, but, well, I better
don’t :-)), packaging pyhonelog should be easily possible.

But anything that requires ophonekit will require you not to use zhone,
but the SHR dialer (I think). Maybe the pyphonelog author should
consider talking to frameworkd directly.

Joachim

Thanks for taking care of that.

Note that although we currently have e17 in your (or pkg-fso’s)
repository, you should plan your modifications outside that package, as
we later want to be able to use the normal Debian package. I don’t know
anything about e17, but it should ideally be a separate package, or a
default configuration file installed by our installer into /root/.e*.

Joachim

Let's first find out what and how should be configured.

Perhaps there could be better ways - such as making Debian's default e17 to 
run some hooks (maybe provided by a separate package) to create an initial 
configuration when illume is chosen.
Or to automatically display icons for installed debian apps (perhaps by 
providing proper hook for debian menu system).

Re: MP3 to OGG converter

If GUIs are your thing, I recommend SoundKonverter (KDE app) which will use
just about any backend you want, including ffmpeg.

did you try here:

http://downloads.freesmartphone.org/fso-testing/images/om-gta02/

there's an image file at the bottom of the page:

http://downloads.freesmartphone.org/fso-testing/images/om-gta02/uImage-2.6.28-oe1+gitr34240a1c06ae36180dee695aa25bbae869b2aa26-r0-om-gta02.bin

which looks about right

[Hackable:1] trouble booting

2009-01-10 Thread Greg Bonett
Hi,
I'm having some trouble booting hackable:1.  I downloaded the tar balls
and extracted them to fat and ext2 partitions on a 2GB micro sd card.  I
then tried to boot using the NOR uboot.  It gets stuck after the
message: " s3c2410_udc: debugfs dir creation failed -19"
has anyone else had this problem?
is there an easy way to check if I properly extracted to tar balls to my
SD card?
Thanks.
-Greg

I've now triead shr-unstable and shr-testing and I get:

r...@om-gta02:/etc/opkg# DISPLAY=:0 osmupdater.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/osmupdater.py", line 2, in

2, in 
import c_elementary
ImportError: /usr/lib/libelementary.so.0: undefined symbol:

r...@om-gta02:/etc/opkg#

It's nice to find programs that _almost_ work but it's a bother to try
to find out why doesnt' it work..

And I agree that OPKG.org should have a 'distro' flag and also the
licences should be visible, as well as the source codes.
