Re: On the Enlightenment Bleeding Edge
OK! Got it. In my GUI, LD_LIBRARY_PATH was set to /usr/etc/e17: while in SSH it was empty. I wrote a script that simply unsets LD_LIBRARY_PATH and runs the first parameter and it works. :D I just added it to the commands to run in all the .desktop files, and voila! It's fixed (dirtily, but effectively). Here's the script, if anyone wants to copy it. It's hardly worth copying though, it's so simple #!/bin/bash unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH $1 -- Thanks, The Digital Pioneer ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

If you've changed the /usr/bin/enlightenment_start.oe as I've suggested, surely the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is affected. So, removing that parameter from there would fix the issues, since e17 should take the E_PREFIX var to get the needed libraries from the /usr/e17 path.

I never noticed the CPU usage, but simply the phone freezed after some usage due to a glamo issue...

Ok, btw I'm not so sure that the crashes you've witht the SHR tools are due to that library only... Maybe they simply have been linked with an older library, so there could be a symbols incompatibility.

Shouldn't it use also "wmiconfig -i eth0 --setreassocmode 0" to allow scanning and connecting again?

So I can scan for networks and (doing a copy paste procedure) start a new wifi wpa connection. The problem is dhcp that sometimes is not working properly and you need to force the DNS IP itself.

As I wrote already, there is a bug in kernel GPS suspend/resume code which
leads to GPS not being powered after resume. Simply re-enable it manually via
Settings, or apply my patch sent to kernel list (but still not merged into git)
- http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-kernel/2009-January/007447.html
I'm attaching also a version against stable.git for those still running 2.6.24..

I've downloaded images for om2008.12, FSO and SHR and something that puzzles me is the lack of MD5 checksums on these repositories.

Community update
Hi! This is the nineth Community Updates, January 12th issue. For the new year we interviewed Sean on everything that matters for the community: sales in 2008 were around the low five digits, om-locations is what remains of an ambitious mesh network project, and the most surprising development to him was the explosion of distributions. Back on the mailing lists, activity was rater slow during the first week of the year, but got more intense than ever after the holidays. Illume's keyboard received lots of localisations. Opkg.org reached a critical mass of packages. SHR and FSO are counting down toward their next milestone, while coding continues for kernel, drivers, Android and the like. It looks like the switch to 2.6.28 is going to happen soonish, before the switch to the Paroli phone stack. The newsletter is also available with links at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Community_Updates/January_12th%2C_2009 Contents * 1 Distributions * 2 New applications * 3 Ports and updates * 4 Community * 5 Hardware and drivers * 6 Tips and tricks 1. Distributions * SHR: According to Julien's latest on the SHR project blog, the baby is expected really soon now. * Marek announced the new organisation of package and images repositories. * Android: The latest compatible kernel has wifi and bluetooth working now. Suspend and reboot are still broken. * FSO MS5 should branch out for really soon now (the roadmap says release January 31st, but they want a longer stabilization period this time). It will be the first milestone that will have support not only for GTA01 and 02, but also for the Motorola EZX A780. meeting minutes. * Hackable:1 buildbot is up and running. Images are generated every morning around 4:00. Happy testing ! * User:Bytestore has updated assemblage 2008.12 from Russian community, work with gprs, headphone jack plug, ru keyboard and many other things were updated (download rootfs, see screenshots) 2. New applications * LED clock When an Openmoko is sitting unused at night, turn it into an alarm clock with large 7-segment digits on a black background in landscape mode. * GPRSsettings is a GUI script designed to change apn, login, dialnumber. * Samuel's script for a toggle wifi icon. * ylock 0.1 Python screen lock and low battery monits. * AppManager 1.0.1 Zenity package manager. * Mirko announced that pre-alpha Paroli was now packaged in testing. Development moved to their own domain: paroli-project hosts trac, git, blog and documentation. * Kurt's Gwaterpas allows to use the Freerunner as a leveling tool. * There are now 75 packages at opkg.org. Novelties include osmupdater (updates OSM maps directory), sortdesk (sorts the desk), MokoCard (flashcards learning aid), sms-sentry (query the unit's location by SMS, handy if it was just stolen), pyring (a key ring), EFpLayer (mplayer GUI), playstankontakarta (an icon displaying remaining credit with POLISH PLAY pre-paid phone provider), various illume keyboards and more. It was mentioned unofficially that Openmoko's community repository is going to be dismantled. 3. Ports and updates * Lots of Navit activity. Distributions are kindly suggested to package the sample map separately from the main binary to conserve space. * The opkg package manager development moved from OM svn to Google code. The recommended stable version is r172, there is a significant data structures+algorithm refactorization going on. * Version 2.4 of orrery is now available. It has a new schematic Solar System View page, showing the position of the planets and our moon in their orbits, a new moon calendar, and a less ugly icon. * The ZOMG! package manager is now available on opkg.org, and now allows to add/remove/edit repositories (i.e. feeds). * Angus updated BtGPS.py to work with FSO. With this script, the FreeRunner works as a bluetooth GPS. * Marco shared his success in compiling the latest E17 svn on 2008.12. There was trouble on SHR with the Elementary widget set, tough. 4. Community * Sean's new year interview * Rakshat Hooja's company IDA Systems will be at Mumbai's TechFest. There are gifts waiting for the first 10 FreeRunner owners to show up at their booth! * The Future of location services thread started as an attempt to clarify the GPS drivers tangle, and then turned to using GSM celltowers and wifi access points location information. Dima signalled that there are several free databases of GSM tower locations, and that his gta02 Perl script to query OpenCellID for the approximate tower location, and then initialize the AGPS with this data works great. There is a database of Wifi access points at wigle.net. * Two new mailing lists were announced. One to discuss testing of all Openmoko Products. The other to discuss projects.openmoko.org administration. While we are at it, here are the number of subscription

Re: [2008.12] Qwerty keyboard and wrench
Hi, Tried your patch now. It gives me the qwerty-"button" back, but it only toggles the qte-keyboard. Not the illume one. The wrench is till not there, so i have no way of changing it either. It should have been possible to define which keyboard to use via ssh. Life would bo so much easier then..

Allegro the game library
Hi, As some of you may know, there's a game library called Allegro. It includes support for graphics (3d, but not accelerated), sound, keyboard, mouse, etc. It works, among others, on Linux using xorg for graphics. Long time ago I've written a game that uses it, and I think this game would be really cool played on the GTA using accelerometers. I'm thinking about porting it, but I don't really know where to start with porting Allegro. Any hints on how to do this and how hard it might be? I've never done any development for GTA, hence this question. BTW, it will be very easy to write new games if Allegro is fully ported.

freeze on GTA02 with high CPU load
Hello, I just by a new FreeRunner and flash it with Om2008.12 (kernel, rootfs and u-boot) But I have big troubles with it : lcd and everything freeze. I use the default image and installed no package yet. After doing some tests, I can tell that : + seems ok when phone is charging and running idle (lcd on, suspend disabled) + when CPU is running at 100% during a couple of minutes then freezes. this happens easily while playing with contact list, location (moving in the map) or going inside installer. + when frozen, next reboots will fail and freeze during X init. I have to wait some time before being able to use it again. That makes the phone totally unusable. I think about something overheated, but nothing seems very hot. I checked battery temp value before phone freezes and is around 280. Is there any other temp counter I can check ? may I verify CPU voltage ? which other test should I do ? Any help would be appreciate. Thanks. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

If you have an application which uses accelerometers you are much better off not running omnewrotate at the same time, regardless of solving the monopolization problem. Imagine it is solved: If the application uses the accelerometers then you may have some problems when you hit a position where it thinks it should rotate the screen. I can imagine how this would be a problem with Pingus, for instance. I plan to have a toggling script for use in the desktop icon, instead of a starter script. Rui -- Or not.

Re: Re: [2008.testing] GPS after resume
Further tests show that 1. after resume, Navit does not get another GPS fix 2. leaving Navit open, and on forcing a cold start with agpsui, agpsui does not even see the time signal (I assume Navit blocks it), but this is enough for Navit to get a fix So at least there is a workaround. It would be nice if there was some primitive GPS UI built into Navit.

The gps unit itself is single access too - we use gpsd, gypsy or ogpsd to allow access by multiple apps. The same goes for (most) sound interfaces, with esd, pulseaudio and so on providing mediation for multiple apps. So far we don't have anything to do this with the accelerometers AFAIK. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: which SHR image
Fernando Martins wrote: > I would like to try SHR but there are plenty of images in SHR image > folder. Which files should I get for flashing? The latest is what you want, but of course there are several "latest" images too. At this time of writing, the latest is dated dec.16 and dec.17. The images dated dec.17 don't seem to be newer, the upload must have happened around midnight. Some of them are described here: http://trac.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/Get Started This describes the difference between the "lite" image and the image that isn't "lite". Basically, "lite" has fewer apps. So most users don't want "lite", unless they want it as a basis for customization. Images with "gta02" in them are for the neo freerunner, images with "gta01" in them are for the older neo 1973. Images with very short names, such as "shr-image-om-gta02.jffs2" are just links to images with longer names. See the file sizes to see just which ones. Files with "rootfs" in their names are root file systems (contains standard linux software and distribution apps). This gives you three files to choose from for a freerunner, assuming you don't want "lite": openmoko-shr-image-glibc-ipk--20081216-om-gta02.rootfs.jffs2 openmoko-shr-image-glibc-ipk--20081216-om-gta02.rootfs.jffs2.summary openmoko-shr-image-glibc-ipk--20081215-om-gta02.rootfs.tar.gz The ".tar.gz" file is not an image for flashing. It is simply an archive with all the files. It is useful in that you can extract the files on a pc easily. You may then copy single files to the freerunner in order to fix a botched customization without having to reflash. If you have customized over several weeks, then perhaps you don't want to reflash and start from scratch. Both of the other two works. The "summary" file is slightly bigger, but is preferable. I have no idea why - but was told so. You also need a linux kernel image, in addition to the root file system. Kernel images all start with "uImage". The name contain "gta01" or "gta02", depending on what phone they are for. Simply get the newest that is correct for your phone. You may also want a "modules" file. If you get one, get the one that matches your kernel. If your kernel has "oe03" and "gta02" in the name, then so should the module file. The "git" part of the name should match too. Modules are extra drivers. You don't need them right away, I haven't bothered yet. You may need them if you want to do something slightly unusal, such as connecting USB devices to the phone. module files aren't images for flashing, you unpack them on the phone using linux commands, after you have the SHR image running normally.

Conflict when several apps use the accelerometers?
Is it possible to let several apps use the accelerometers, similiar to how several apps may share the gps unit?
