RE: GTA02 preorder please?

[Tim Murphy]

 

I would like to propose asking the openmoko.com to add a preorder form for
stable developer hardware platform. Something what they would consider a
release candidate. This would allow for developers just like me to finally
use their credit cards, and reduce the amount of pooling required. 


This probably won't happen. Some of the official Openmoko people can chime
in here, but I think that their current system/CC provider doesn't allow
them to accept orders on products that aren't shipping. 

 Is it possible, then, to have a preorder list that would guarantee getting
the neo in the first shipment, with payments due when shipping commences?

RE: New to OpenMoko

[Tim Murphy]

To the best of my knowledge, Telstra's 3G network (Australia) runs on
850MHz, which isn't supported at the moment.  There was a discussion about
the support of this frequency not too long back.

Hi Folks,
I've flashed the rootfs and a new kernel.

So then I got all excited and inserted my SIM into it and powered up.

Turns out I should have read some more.  My current phone (Nokia N80 - can I
run openmoko on that?), is a 3G phone and it seems that the neo doesn't like
it.

I then stole one of my teams SIM and it fired up fine.  I get a GSM signal
but cant make phone calls.

I am still finding my way around the phone. 

I noticed that the icons disappeared from the home page, anyway I'm off to
investigate the machine.

One thing though

cu -l /dev/ttyACM0 

Only gives errors at present
cu: open (/dev/ttyACM0): Permission denied
cu: /dev/ttyACM0: Line in use


My Linux systems skills obviously need honing.

Anyway, I'll head off and study now.

Stay well,
Barry

 Welcome to OpenMoko, Barry!

 All you need to do is flash a new kernel and file system. Get the 
 latest from

 Good luck and let us know how it goes,

 Michael

 Hi,
 I just took delivery of a neo1973 (I'm in Australia btw, Sydney).
 I have inserted the microSD and SIM cards and booted the machine up.

 I get the boot logo and then Linux tries to start but I get the 
 following:

 Kernel Panic- not syncing: No init found.  Try passing init= option 
 to kernel

 While I have a fair bit of Linux experience, I have no idea how to 
 connect to the machine or edit files or whatever.

 I am looking on the Openmoko site, but I would really appreciate any 
 advice.

 I am very excited by this.

 Stay well,
 Barry

Re: No time for my Neo

[Tim Murphy]

I'm interested, but I live in Australia.  Would you consider posting it?

What condition is the Neo in?  How much were you after for it?

Hi all,

I have absolutely no time to play with my Neo (the black and silver
one), so I am considering parting with it.  If anyone is interested in
buying it (especially if you live near Boston) and you have a
reasonable offer please let me know.

Best Regards,
Rob
