general SD card read/write problem

2011-06-02 Thread Dmitry Shalnoff
Hello Everybody,

I have a periodically appeared problem with SD card writing/reading 
functionality. I has several cards to try and found some correlation with size 
and speed type of the card. '

Problems are appers when I'm trying to write intensively on the card. Usually 
on the next boot I found filesystem corrupted and cant' mount card anymore till 
I fsck it (with predictable files damage) or reformat. 

generally it's looks like 16GB cards almost 100% cases have problems. 
and as I suppose 4 class cards more prone to problem than class 6. 

Question is simple: Is my suspicions are correct (concerning class and card 
size)? what is general recommendations? Who has any good/bad experience with 
different types of cards?  

I know about this topic http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Supported_microSD_cards , 
but it's doesn't looks like relevant tutorial to buy fail-safe SD and obviously 
this problem doesn't rely on brand name too. 

thank you beforehand for any help,
Dmitry

[qtMoko] Request needed to restore bluetooth

2011-06-02 Thread Guilhem Bonnefille
Hi,

I encounter a strange issue. Currently, my qtMoko refuse to start: it
freezes with a SegmentationFault message on the framebuffer.

After some investigation, it seems that the faulty is qpe. But I do
not understand why.

Looking at many many logs, it seems to be related to bluetooth
unavailable when qpe initializing (last messages are around bluez DBus
interfaces unavailable). So, I enabled bluetooth ('om bt power 1') and
then restarted qtMoko ('/etc/init.d/qtmoko restart'), even after some
bluetooth fixes ('/opt/qtmoko/bin/btfix.sh'). But nothing better,
Segmentation Fault always occurs. Nevertheless, something strange
occurs: bluetooth device is powered off, while it was on just before.

So, a new idea: the last-action-before-hanging-system is to disable
bluetooth at startup, because I do not need bluetooth myself. So, I
imagine the following: when initializing, qpe apply my settings and
disable bluetooth, but just after it enters a code that reclaim
bluetooth.

How can I solve this? Is there a way to change the startup settings
without GUI? Is there a way to start enought part of GUI to change
settings?
Also, I'm probably wrong: is there any other way to solve the issue?

Thanks for reading and for any suggestion.

Hi Dmitry,

I also had some trouble with my SD cards. For me it seems that using u-boot 
with 4-4-4 timing settings gives a much more reliable use of the SD cards.
With the 2-4-2 timing i have a lot of file corruption, so i switched back to an 
old kernel and the old 2-4-2 timing and have had little or no problem with
the SD cards since i switched back.
I love to hear if your troubles are over too when you switch back.
I got my u-boot from [1]

I run my distro from the SD card, so corruption is really annoying for me.

Kind regards,
Ed

Hi,
i am not quite sure if it's really bluetooth. I'd rather try remove and 
install again qtmoko package with apt-get - maybe the executable got somehow 
corrupted.

Another option is to ssh to the FR, install gdb and check the backtrace:

apt-get install gdb
/etc/init.d/qtmoko stop
source /opt/qtmoko/qpe.env
gdb qpe
r

qtmoko and FSO

2011-06-02 Thread Radek Polak
Hi,
for those who are interested in qtmoko running on top of freesmartphone.org 
framework here is some update.

Things are going really nice. We can now use Qt binding library for FSO which 
is automatically generated from fso xml spec files. It means that it's easy to 
use existing FSO api. It is very easy to add new api (just regenerate with one 
command) and compiler can find any FSO API changes.

As for integration with QtMoko i have decided to add FSO phonevendor plugin. 
It means that there will be libfsovendor.so plugin file and you can swith 
between current libneovendor.so and libfsovendor.so by changing one 
environment variable. All future releases will have both pluging and you will 
be able to switch between them.

It seems that both FSO and qtopia phone interfaces are nicely written and they 
seem to fit quite well together so i expect fast progress now.

Currently QtMoko can use FSO to register to network, print available 
operators, make and hang call. I plan to do finish the call interface, then 
probably start with SMS and then i can do some experimental release.

Thanks to FSO and SHR people for great framework and for help!

Regards

Radek

Good news!  Let me know if you want any testing done once you SMS going.
