 Hi
 the v36, IIRC, is an experimental version and I didn't tried it. But I
 suggest you to install the v35 and then to upgrade to v37 (apt-get
 update / apt-get upgrade). The v37, for me, is almost stable for daily use.

Yes, v36 is known to not boot from NAND, i have now removed the image from 
sourceforge, so it does not cause confusion.

many thanks, i tried that, seems OK so far.  the thread for v37...

...seems to indicate that v37 is GTA04 only? this impression is

seems OK on my GTA02.

The rootfs is only for GTA04. There are no changes in GTA02's rootfs since v35 
- just new stuff in qtmoko.deb package so i skipped creating the tarball.

I will try to be not lazy for next release and do also the tarball ;-) I also 
have now working GTA02 again so i can test it.

 but so far v35 + apt-get update + apt-get upgrade
 seems OK on my GTA02.

Yes this is how it should work.

Re: [Shr-User] Openmoko Cummunity Survey 2011 – Results

2012-01-09 Thread Lukas Märdian
The poll was open for about 3 weeks now and we got votes from 185
people. Thanks to all those who participated and thus helped to decide
on the future of the Om community.

I decided to close the poll now and release the results to the
mailinglists. To create a ranking I gave 1 point to a YES vote and 0.5
points to a (YES) vote. The maximum (100%) is 73 points.

The rankings didn't change in round 2 of this poll. Just the percentages
changed in a range of +-5%.

RANKINGS:
=
Software Side:
1. SHR  112.5 points(61%)
2. QtMoko99.5 points(54%)
3. Debian75.5 points(41%)
4. Other Distro  40.0 points(22%)

Hardware Side:
1. Om GTA02 158.5 points(86%)
2. Goldelico GTA04   71.0 points(38%)
3. Nokia N90034.0 points(18%)
4. Other Device  26.0 points(14%)
5. Palm Pre (+variants)  14.5 points( 8%)
6. Om GTA01   9.5 points( 5%)
7. Google Nexus S 7.0 points( 4%)

On the software side SHR is still the most popular distro, directly
followed by QtMoko. Quiet a few people commented, that they intend to
code their own software/GUI mostly to educated themselves.

On the hardware side the Om GTA02 is the clear winner, followed by the
Goldelico GTA04. Even though very few people have a GTA04, yet, there
seems to be quite some interest.

COMMENTS:

sanvy:
Debian: Defora OS for developing
SHR: only in case of emergency
QtMoko: never used qt after qtextended, but i follow changelogs.
Other distro: Android Cupcake
GTA04: only if the price goes under 300€
I use FR as daily phone since 2008.

Macros:
My Openmoko Screen is currently broken and I haven't yet found time to

Jorge Costa:
the problem is that android 2.2 is too slow for common...

Jorge Costa:
I have a few must have needs in my phone: google contact sync(over
2000contacts), gps+maps, GPRS+wifi.
so far only android 2.2 fullfilled all of these, QTMOKO allows me to
sync my contacts from google contacts, but the address book in unusable
as it doesn't have a search function. (scrolling through contacts is
impossible).
The problem is that 2.2 is too slow for common day usage, and it crashes
quite often

guyou:
qtMoko makes my GTA2 a daily phone. If I have to change, I wish a phone
with keyboard, like N900.

aloniv:
Qtmoko works as a phone other than GPRS (which crashes the phone) and
encrypted wifi (which I wasn't able to setup via the graphical
interface). Om2009 actually provides GPRS, phone functionality and
wireless (via Saskia) quite well, although the phone software is very
very basic. I couldn't receive SMS messages with SHR and Debian's
default phone software wasn't usable (no sound was played when receiving
a call). Hackable1 wasn't usable as a phone either (couldn't receive calls).

losinggeneration:
Only QtMoko actually works for me, SHR is unable to receive SMS
messages,  I also use Android-on-freerunner 2.2 some, but it's quite slow.

Muhammad Ayaz:
I have N900 but Installation process of SHR is too much difficult as I
am window user and noob to Linux, If possible Community should write

rhn:
After switching to n900 when my GTA02 died, I'm never switching back to
a phone without any form of physical keyboard. Otherwise I'd be
interested in GTA04.

Mirv:
Other device: Nokia N9. I try to keep

the distro action currently is on Mer/Nemo side.

Nick Sheppard:
I've been using my GTA02 as my everyday phone for a year and a half,
first with SHR, then QtMoko v24, then SHR again. I've just signed up for
the GTA04 Group Tour.
I've tinkered with Android-on-FreeRunner, and I'd be interested in a
NetBSD port, especially since I discovered that Android took a lot of
its userland glibc from NetBSD and OpenBSD.
Finally MANY thanks to all involved in the FreeRunner project - this
community has made the Freerunner my favorite toy!

Ed:
I run gentoo as the OS on my GTA02 and want to write my own phone app
too, just for fun. So i like an OS that has as little dependencies as
possible, and a distro that uses well established software for wifi
(wpa_supplicant), Bluetooth (Bluez), Gps (gpsd) etc.

Cant get gpsd to work

2012-01-09 Thread RANJAN
Hi,

I am not able to get GPSD to work. I did this:

echo GPS_DEV=\/dev/ttySAC1\  /etc/default/gpsd
/etc/init.d/gpsd restart


but when I do /etc/init.d/gpsd it says not found. I can see the gpsd file
in /etc/default folder but no use. Is there a script to get GPS position
say lat and long on FR? Please let me know.

SHR-Core : Display issue?

2012-01-09 Thread Iain B. Findleton

I have been running the SHR 2.6.29 kernel for a while. Lately I tried
to install the latest SHR-core kernel (2.6.39.4) WITHOUT installing the
rootfs files. This procedure has worked fine for other kernel upgrades.

In this latter case, while running 2.6.39, the display appears to have
gotten into trouble in that touch screen locations appear to be wildly
off. Applications no longer respond to button press activity as expected,
and it appears that the coordinates of the press are off in the y direction
by about 50% of the screen size.

Anybody have an idea why this would be so? Is upgrading the rootfs
a requirement for the new kernel?

Re: Cant get gpsd to work

2012-01-09 Thread David Matthews

Provided there is no hardware fault on your phone, on qtmoko the qtpedometer
app is nice for getting location.

For me at least GPS now works pretty well when the sky is clear but possibly
not at all when there is heavy cloud cover. Would there be a way to increase
power temporarily - I'm guessing this is where the problem is - possibly by
poking the value held somewhere in /proc or /sys?

Incidentally - I wonder what the AGPS and GPS standby scripts are for?

Re: MCNavi 0.3.1 released

2012-01-09 Thread Mike
Hi,

new version is on the track. It will support new gpsd with many other changes.
I'll make some testing tomorrow and if it will work reliably, I will release it.

Currently I don't use rcs, because I don't find it usefull as the only one on
the project. May be in future.

AGPS scripts are automatically called by qtmoko's gps system.

Dump is called when GPS has fix and saves some data to 
/var/something_with_gps_in_name.

Restore is called when some app requests gps - it uses the data above to 
speedup getting fix (IIRC i could get fix in like 10s with the agps data).

I dont know if standby is currently used - but Freerunner's GPS has ability to 
enter some low power sleep mode and after waking up it can get fast fix again.

Maybe you can find some more accurate info here:
