I'm trying to see if I can do this with the FIC1973, possibly with simple warrantee violating hardware enhancements...) It's my understanding that it would only require software changes. Does anyone know how much work it will be to get the USB host working? I will need it to drive a webcam for one of my projects. Will this be possible? If not done, you can still use microSD card with micro to SD convertor, right? -- Regards, Doncho N.

Anyway, since there are no hardware buttons for input, could we not use the vibrator to give a quick pulse so that you still have some feedback as to when a button is pressed? It might go a long way in making hardware keyboard less entry more acceptable. http://www.time4.com/time4/microsites/popsci/howitworks/cellphone_motor.html Any thoughts? Don't know, should try this first but I would preffer an option to turn this off (just like I turn all sort of key/screen touch sounds off very soon). -- Regards, Doncho N.

A) you should have looked harder. B) I should have tried editing the wiki harder, to make things stand out more.

Translation status and infrastructure
Hello all, I would like to help with the translation and have some experience (we are translating Fedora Project to Bulgarian). What I have done is to subscribe to this list, create an account in the wiki, got the sources (Using_Subversion) and can see some *.pot and *.po files around. My questions are (in short, what, when, where, how): Is there separate svn repo for the translation? Is there a procedure to follow (the wiki page is not quite specific)? Should I have an account for the svn or what's the method to get the translated .po files back to the project? If there's no translation infrastructure currently (which makes my previous questions invalid), I can describe what do we have in Fedora Project (have some ideas too)... I see there's a qemu copy in the source. Can it be used to test the translation? I would prefer to have a real device to see the results (and waiting to buy one ASAP), but qemu would do also. I have a sharp zaurus and have compiled and installed a few programs on it, but the emulation with qemu is not quite successful. PP: I can start translating after 24.V.2007 (F7 release). -- Regards, Doncho ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
how to add a language to the wiki
I'm new to mediawiki, sorry. How do I add Bulgarian to the list of languages? I have translated one page for test: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Translation_HOWTO is translated at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Translation_HOWTO/bg -- Regards, Doncho ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
