[qtmoko v44 sd card] screen dimms even QX settings should prevent this

2012-06-03 Thread robin
hi 

does anyone know if there is another possibility to prevent screen dimming
for a qx application (it is navit in my case). Activating Prevent screen
dimmming in the app settings still allows the screen to dim approx after 
15 minutes. This is somewhat bad for car navigation ;-( .

best regards

robin

It's probably X server which does the dimming in this case. IIRC there was way 
how to disable it, but i cant find it now :( I think it was discussed on this 
mailing list.

Copy you wav ogg or mp3 (if you have installed codecs) to 
/media/card/Documents or /home/root/Documents. The media system should find 
them and you can use it.

QtMoko allows to set custom ringtone to each profile (Settings-Rigntones  
Profiles) or to each contact.

Maybe try this link:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Display_Power_Management_Signaling#Disable_DPMS_and_prevent_screen_from_blanking

Maybe one of these commands mentioned there will work:

xset -dpms; xset s off

WLAN connection problems w. static IP

2012-06-03 Thread Thomas Pantzer

Hello,

has anybody of you a working WLAN configuration
_WITH_ static IP addresses in the Neo Freerunner ?

It simply doesn't work for me or it has never been tested at all.

If I uncheck the DHCP tick and enter a static IP address in the

Internet - WLAN -Properties - IP Settings

it will be always reverted back to DHCP.

The openmoko simply doesn't use the supplied static IP address.



I can't use DHCP with my home network since my DHCP server
refuses to send IP address to clients that send too short
request.  This is another bug in the QtMoko. According to
the RFC a DHCP-request needs to be padded up to 300 chars.




Best Regards

Thomas Pantzer

hi radek,

that's what I had thought too so the ringtone sides in 

/home/root/Documents/Music/Ringtones

for mp3 compatability I installed the codec package. But if I now start to
edit a contact and go for ringtone I get none alarm phonering and others.
if I press on others I only get No Documents found. Do you know the folder 
of alarm and phonering. maybe I can place it in there directly or do a symlink.

best regards

robin

I've used a usb ELM327 based scanner with my GTA02.  I have successfully 
read codes, cleared codes, and watched sensors. I use this program: 
http://code.google.com/p/pyob2read/ but I strip out references to the 
graph library is I couldn't find it for GTA02.  I cant seem to find my 
modified script or I would share it.

If my reading of the QtMoko source is correct, QtMoko simply uses
'udhcpc' to do client-side DHCP.  So what you've described may be a
known bug with the Debian squeeze version of udhcpc (which is part of
busybox).

Therefore, you might like to:

- see if you can reproduce the same problem with Debian squeeze udhcpc,
  running independently of QtMoko

- investigate if that problem has since been fixed in busybox upstream

- build and install a modified busybox package that adds that udhcpc
  fix.

Neil

Re: ELM 327 Bluetooth OBD2

2012-06-03 Thread Benjamin Deering


GTA02 seems to be able to supply a lot of power.  I have used mine to 
charge a Petzl core battery.  The charging was less important than using 
the GTA02 to reprogram the battery's internal regulator.  It had no 
problem powering the ELM327, but I would hope that is getting the power 
from the car's electrical system.
