 and where you have to put image files to be recognised as cover by the media
 player?
 
 Every documents are sorted by mimetype, so, for a JPEG image, you
 should put it in Documents/image/jpeg/

You can do it this way, but it is not required. Anything within the 
~/Documents or /media/card/Documents directories will be scanned, and added 
automatically.


 
 To identify mimetype, you can grep extension of you file in
 /etc/mime.types on your desktop
 ie:
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ grep jpg /etc/mime.types
 image/jpegjpeg jpg jpe

 Is anyone else not seeing any of the SIM contacts in QTExtended?

No problem here, running uImage-gta02-g291a9d50_mwester-stable.bin and
qtextended-4.4.1-gta02-rootfs-release-10022309.jffs2.

 
 
 All right... Rebooting again made the contacts visible.
 
 Where's the best place to report bugs for the images from Troll/Nokia?

Probably at http://trolltech.com/bugreport-form

This goes directly to our support, who forward it on to anengineer.

  I'm trying to send an MMS with Qtopia. I set up GPRS and WAP through the

  Qtopia launches pppd without a device parameter and redirects the modem
  device through a pseudo-tty to the stdin/out of the pppd process. Qtopia
  assumes BSD-style /dev/pty*, but on my FR I only got /dev/pts.
  
  So I patched it for /dev/pts. Not sure how correct I have done this.
 
 There is similar code in 4.4, I just added it to 4.3
 Thanks
 
 I missed something with this patch. The ttyname is used later and was
 not returned by createPseudoTty. That explains the garbage in the first
 arg when launching pppd.
 
 Funny thing is, a connection worked, although the device was not passed
 to pppd. But I really don't understand yet how this whole thing works.

The patch I backported to 4.3 in Qtopia is this:

   // try opening Unix98 pseudo tty
if ((masterFd = ::open(/dev/ptmx, O_RDWR | O_NONBLOCK, 0)) = 0) {
if (grantpt(masterFd) == 0) {
if (unlockpt(masterFd) == 0) {
ptsname_r(masterFd, ttyname, BUFSIZ);
if ((slaveFd = ::open(ttyname, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY, 0)) = 0)
return true;
}
}
::close(masterFd);
}

 FSO is the brainchild of Dr. Michael Lauer, fresh from the university's

I may not agree with using python on a phone, but Michael has quite a lot of 
industry experience, I first got to know him was back in the days of Opie 
Zaurus/iPaq. He is not just a run-of-the-mill part time open source 
developer. He is quite a gifted engineer. and I beg to differ that 
Uni experience does not count as 'industry'. Research is at the core of 
industry and Uni's do quite a bit of needed research. What FSO is trying to 
do is to provide a common area between device and gui.



 It is reinventing the
 wheel and drains lots of ressources that are needed elsewhere inside of
 Openmoko. It combines plenty of things out of which one is a new PIM API
 based on dbus. This idea alone is worth to be mentioned every day for a
 year on the dailyWTF website.

We could also say that Linux, Gnome or hundreds of other projects are trying 
to reinvent the wheel. Reinvention is key to not becoming stale or 
obsolete.


 ...have fun and enjoy life and start looking at the Neo what it is: a
 tiny Linux computer with a GPS and a GSM modem. There is no sudden
 revolution going to happen tomorrow.

As is every other gps phone out there.

wait a bit longer. the screen/keylock should go away when it registers with 
the network.
