simultaneous multiple audio sources and destinations
All, I'm aware of at least one phone(i) where the audio capability on the device is prioritized to voice calls and the audio runs as a singleton process such that you cannot have the option to have simultaneous voice call and media player sound routed to headset or switch between them. Is this the case with Freerunner? Does anyone know about other devices and whether they are similarly restricted or not - Symbian, Blackberry, Android, etc.? I am aware of PJSIP and it's local bridge capability as a potential example of what I'd like to do - sort of a peer to peer conference application with local media server rather than network based. Thoughts or comments welcomed. Chris ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

My host for Openmoko work is Ubuntu (currently 8.10) as a vm on my MacBook Pro running Leopard 10.5.6. Returning to the pure Leopard environment I'm able to use OpenMoko Flasher and it dfu-util to access the USB port. I'm guessing either something in Ubuntu 8.10 and/or VMWare is causing the DFU capability to be corrupted and therefore not work, although as late as December it seemed to work just fine. So, I've upgrade both my distributions and bootloader and seem to have no problem at this point other than the slowness of flashing.

after Qi no USB in Nor questions
All, I have a Neo Freerunner GTA02V5 to which I apparently flashed Qi some weeks ago. I'm not sure which version of FSO is flashed to memory, but I think it is milestone 3. In installing Qi, I think I may have been trying to recover from modifications made to uboot for Debian and probably ran the devirginator process to flash uboot before I went ahead and flashed Qi. I no longer recall why I did either. And now, I'm a little confused as to how to proceed as I can no longer flash with dfu-util. When I boot to Nor and plug in the USB cable, I get a series of errors on my host and cannot use dfu-util. The errors are these: [ 87.928631] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 [ 88.540254] usb 1-1: unable to read config index 0 descriptor/ start: -71 [ 88.540437] usb 1-1: chopping to 0 config(s) [ 88.695904] usb 1-1: string descriptor 0 read error: -71 [ 88.698093] usb 1-1: string descriptor 0 read error: -71 [ 88.700419] usb 1-1: string descriptor 0 read error: -71 [ 88.734000] usb 1-1: no configuration chosen from 0 choices [ 88.736092] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 3 [ 89.084376] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 [ 89.692859] usb 1-1: invalid descriptor for config index 1: type = 0x2, length = 0 [ 89.692909] usb 1-1: can't read configurations, error -22 [ 89.912237] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5 [ 90.420975] usb 1-1: invalid descriptor for config index 1: type = 0x2, length = 0 [ 90.421000] usb 1-1: can't read configurations, error -22 [ 90.641355] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6 [ 90.676829] usb 1-1: invalid descriptor for config index 1: type = 0x2, length = 0 [ 90.676850] usb 1-1: can't read configurations, error -22 [ 90.900242] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 7 [ 90.939088] usb 1-1: invalid descriptor for config index 1: type = 0x2, length = 0 [ 90.939111] usb 1-1: can't read configurations, error -22 [ 90.940610] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 1 This occurs whether the Freerunner is attached to the host first or not. Note: when booted into installed image, USB networking is fine and the above errors do not occur. Is this a host side problem or Neo Freerunner problem? I notice in the Qi documentation that there is no dfu-util support. Would that effect dfu-util in Nor? When I do attempt to boot into Nand, I end up with a Nor boot menu that is the same as when I boot into Nor - apparently either why the AUX/Power button are selected I boot to Nor. Is that correct behavior with Qi? BTW - my Nor boot menu seems slightly different than what I see on the wiki - rather than a Reset option in the fifth position I have Reboot. Are there any log or configuration files I should post to help diagnosis? I would like to be able to upgrade the release in memory or for that matter Qi - which I think I'm now blocked from doing. Is there an alternative to the "devirginator" process to restore the Freerunner to "factory" state?

flashing Neo Freerunner problems
All, I had set my Neo aside for a few weeks and on returning to it I'm unable to flash a new kernel or root file system. Of course I was previously able to flash. The most recent changes I can recall involve restoring the Nand uboot as I had installed debian and wanted to undo the changes to allow that to work. I cannot recall the exact steps taken to accomplish that, but I believe it was nominally successful and I installed FSO milestone 3. There have been some changes to my host envrionment - MAC OS X with VMWare, but I'm using the same Ubuntu 8.10 VM as was used to install the FSO ms 3. I did create a CentOS 5.2 vm and have the same problem flashing there as well. When I run "dfu-util -l" while at the NOR menu there are no listed usb devices. When I boot the NEO into FSO, I am able to connect via USB networking. I'm kind of stumped, and admit it might be something simple that I'm forgetting, but I have not found anything in the wiki to solve this problem or to jog my memory. I do have a debug board and am prepared to go that route, but I've not satisfied myself that it clearly the NEO versus my host environment. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Android rootfs image?
All, I am not an official spokes person for Koolu, but I had a chance to speak with Jon "Maddog" Hall (self described Chief Advocate for Openmoko and in the employ of Koolu) at the Open Mobile Summit last week in San Francisco, CA. He indicated that Koolu and Sean were working "together". Further, although I can not recall his exact phrasing, but as he's an open source advocate, I'm quite confidant that sources will be made available to the community by Koolu. How else will the source be made "international"? Perhaps someone from Koolu could set expectations for a release date and source code availability?

Re: GPRS working (somewhat) with T-Mobile and Freerunner
There have now been several posts related to the successful use of GPRS on one or more of the software platforms - OM 200*.* and FSO - but not much discussion of how to multiplex voice and data calls. The FSO platform through it's mdbus/dbus interface seems to accomplish this. [1] below describes how to do so with a prior release of ASU. Is the multiplexer referenced in [1] - gsm0710muxd - now part of OM 2008.8 and should the direct use of /dev/ttySAC0 be avoided? Is the multiplexer referenced in [1] and apparently running on FSO the means by which data and voice are multiplexed in FSO? In FSO, if gsm0710muxd is the running daemon, what is the role of gsmd? Is gsmd active during voice calls only? Finally, with FSO and the mdbus/dbus interface , how can I set other connection parameters - for example, speed, timeouts, reconnect? Thoughts? Suggestions? Oh, yea - how can either a dund or pand connection event trigger gprs for laptop tethering?

Re: Car charger to GTA02
Although not measured, I've confirmed that the iGo systems - Juice and car charger - with the A32 tip will charge the Neo Freerunner. At one point it stopped working, but either of a uboot or kernel change has it working again.

Re: GPRS for FSO Milestone 2
I've been away from home since this thread began. I tried to learn in the meantime a little bit about the mdbus *PDP* per Mickey's suggestion, but I'm not there yet. What I have working seems to allow multiplexing of data and voice through gsm multiplexor, however more than 2 "calls" of either type seems to kill and further calling and requires a reboot. I have been able to hold a gprs data connection for over 4 hours. It did not fail at the end, I moved on to another task requiring a reboot. I'll post my interim method tomorrow. In the meantime, does anyone else experience gsm instability with FSO MS2?

Re: FSO wifi power control
There is if I recall correctly. Search the wiki for mdbus. I think there is an object and a method for that.

general question about similarities and differences of usb and bluetooth networking
All, I've been taking it easy with the FSO Milestone 2 image - nice piece of work, not as fully functional as 2007.2, but appears to me more stable and intuitive. I don't think the questions below are unique to this environment, but that's what I'm using on my Neo Freerunner. When I connect with USB Networking to my Ubuntu 8.04 host, it is sufficient to simply set up the via ifconfig on both systems the connection, to place the DNS server used by the Ubuntu host in the / etc/resolv.conf of the Neo Freerunner and I can reach what ever network my Ubuntu host is attached to - in this case the home network and the old dub-dub-dub. Doing what appears to be the same as UDB Networking, except using pand, I setup the Ubuntu host as a "listener" with the "role NAP", put the Neo Freerunner in the client role, assign ip addresses with ifconfig, setup /etc/resolv.conf as before but all I can ping from the Neo Freerunner is the Ubuntu host. In fact I cannot even ping the DNS server. Note, I have shutdown USB networking and only the loopback interface is active. I've tried adding a default route on the Neo Freerunner and still can only ping the Ubuntu host. I've added iptable magic to no effect either. Note, the latter two steps were not required with USB networking. Here's my question: what's the same and what's different about USB networking and Bluetooth PAN networking? Of course, the follow on, is how to get a shared connection through the Ubuntu host with bluetooth with the understanding achieved from the answer to the first question.

GPRS for FSO Milestone 2
I've been able to hack together the necessary ppp scripts to get GPRS working on FSO Milestone 2 release. This is for a Freerunner, if it matters. I stole liberally from http://freeyourphone.de/portal_v1/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=295&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&sid=dda5c6cbf5850182c786488123f056ce and made couple of tweaks. Basically, I'm just using the following files from the tar file referenced at the above link - gprs, gprs- connect-chat, gprs-disconnect-chat, gprson, gprsoff. Most of the instructions at the above link can be ignored as the work of multiplexing call and data traffic is part of FSO framework (as I understand it). Just make sure you put each of the above files in the correct locations as indicated. The missing piece is to simply use the shell scripts gprson and gprsoff. The former has the dbus request to get a MUX'd channel from gsm daemon (gsm0710muxd sp?). I'll post something to the wiki if there's sufficient interest.

Re: Influence of WiFi on GPS readings (200m error)
I'm not sure where the fault lies, but with tangogps, I seem to get a scatter plot displayed for my position. Initially the fix seems accurate, then it starts to wander, although I may not be. If I am moving, the trial doesn't seem to follow the route I've taken. I think it may be tangogps, but I thought I'd try using my garmin bluetooth in a "side by side" kind of test to see whether it is tangogps or the gps radio.

Re: Car charger to GTA02
Steve, I'm either crazy or loosing my mind. I was sure that the FR was charging with the iGO and the A32 (Rev 1, subscript T) tip. I went to by another tip and got a A32 (Rev 2, subscript E) and while the FR recognized a connection (the usb symbol showed) it did not charge. I retired the other tip and same thing - usb symbol but no charge. I checked battery status with apm and it reported "off line" when the iGO was connected. Which tip are you using? Did I blow something? The USB charge and wall charger both work, so I'm questioning now whether I ever really saw my FR charging, maybe just saw the usb icon and assumed it was.

Re: GPS external antenna socket
As an impulse buy, I bought a Gilsson Technologies external GPS antenna. It was the only one the store had and it came with 4 adapters, one seems to work. I get an apparent boost (30-50%???) in signal strength. I have removed my Micro SD and have only used it with a few times. The model "number" appears to be: FME.

Re: GPS
Here are my results of pumping NMEA data from the FreeRunner to another GPS client and pumping NMEA data from another GPS device to the Freerunner. FR -> GPSy (Mac OS X client) - could not get a fix on NMEA data Garmin 10 -> FR - tangoGPS worked flawlessly Apparently, agpsui reads directly from /dev/ttySAC1 even when gpsd is running. Couldn't get agpsui to "see" the Garmin 10 data. Also, GPSy worked flawlessly with Garmin 10 data. As near as I can tell, the two data streams are very different in terms of GPS data and information. I'm not knowledgeable enough to say what the difference is, except the FR data is much more terse/brief (shorter length of each line of data). What this experiment tells me is that data coming from the FR GPS chip either directly or via gpsd is does not contain enough information for a fix. What software exists between gpsd and/or /dev/ttySAC, if any, may be responsile or the GSP chip itself is not getting what it needs from the antenna.

Re: GPS
Thanks for this, I also found how to go the other direction on the wiki. Right now I have the AGPS application reading data from the Garmin. Three minutes have passed and no fix yet. Will try Tango and then reverse the scenario for the Palm TX.

Re: GPS
A refinement on the thought below - how to pipe the NMEA data to a bluetooth serial port so I can connect my Palm TX and run its mapping off the FR GPS chip data.

Re: GPS
What is meant by "cold start"? Is this simply a power off and power back on? Or is it the power cycle and no previous fix data for current location? With other GPS devices, until that first location fix was achieved, nothing happened, but once achieved and no significant change in geography, then a fix could be achieved in less than a few minutes. Given that most of these devices are being received in a location different than where ever the device may have previously gotten a fix, my thought is part of the problem is getting that first current location fix.

The GPS performance of my Freerunner is also much worse than the GPS performance of my neo1973. I've done side-by-side tests of the two units many times. My neo1973 gets a good fix in 2 to 3 minutes after a completely cold start; it's very reliable. My Freerunner initially was getting a fix after 7 or 8 minutes. For the last few days it has not been able to get a fix at all. Ken Young I can confirm that, too. The 1973 gets a cold start fix in less than 2 minutes. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: Problems with building openmoko-sample with toolchain
I think there is a problem with your environment caused by various shell scripts you may have executed. If you have set up any of the scripts to run automatically, undo that. Start in a "clean" shell to do the toolchain activity. I had this problem but I cannot recall the prior activity I had done before starting the toolchain. When I started a new shell everything was fine. I did get a very similar traceback.

vmware appliance for Xoo/Xephyr
The Wiki states that a vmware appliance exists for Xoo/Xephyr based development. I've not been able to locate it via search. Can someone point me in the right direction?
