Hi Aditya,
emulator is nowadays not much needed. It would take a lot of effort to
emulate Openmoko hardware drivers in qemu. Running and debugging all the
software on real hardware is more comfortable (with gdb, nfs and other
tools). Maybe somebody has working qemu, but i would not bet on it.

I can tell you on my example: some time ago I was unknown community
member, doing development mostly only for Polish community. Then I
just asked for something I could do for SHR - Ainulindale (IIRC) said
that we need new settings app. And I wrote it, and SHR Settings is now
in all images, and i'm SHR coreteam member :)

AFAIK same was with pyphonelog, mokonnect, ffalarms and few other
apps. SHR has also the best (in my opinion) system for handling
patches, everyone can do "git send-email" to shr-devel list and
patches will arrive in our patchwork.

There is coreteam, but most important and almost all visible changes
in images are voted by community. Coreteam handles more "smart"
issues, as discussing how to handle stable->testing->unstable system,
new phoneui API, coding schemes and other things, but results of
coreteam discussions are also discussed by users after that.

And AFAIK in coreteam ATM are *all* of people who just asked for that
when coreteam was created.

So to sum up: in my experience SHR development seems to be the most
easy to join than in other big Openmoko distros. And SHR is open to
new packages and UIs - the whole concept of libframeworkd-phonegui is
about openness and having choise.

I would agree, but what's your solution?
The one idea I have is that maybe stable releases are the common
denominator: Insist on stable interfaces, crystal clear distinction
between stable, testing and unstable branches.
That may be one way to bring the hackers and regular users together,
since I believe at least a large part of hackers understands and
agrees with the value of well maintained stable releases, well tested
upgrade paths from one stable release to the next, a clear process
of how stuff moves from unstable to testing to stable.

It would still require some tough choices though, because there are
some that don't care about stable releases (I'm not blaming them same
as you - they do this for their own enjoyment). Maybe their stuff
stays in unstable forever :-)
What do you think?

Best Regards,
Wolfgang

I would recommend that you choose which ever distro keeps their "how  
to make your Neo work as a phone for most of the time using this  
distro as well as running other standard services reliably" wiki page  
up to date and by up to date I mean referring to which ever is the  
most useable bootloader, build, kernel currently available even if  
that is the daily build. It should also assume that the reader is a  
complete novice and is neither a hacker or a linux sysadmin.

Seeing that none of the distro's really do (seeing that they are  
produced by hackers who are mostly hacking for their own enjoyment  
it's not really surprising and you can't really blame the teams)  
you've got a wide choice.

This remains one of the main requirements of Openmoko in my opinion  
and could be a great way for the non-core-hackers to contribute.

told you ;)

And just to start the war, wouldn't this mean that we should stop
using Linux since more people are working on Windows. Or ok, only use
Ubuntu and drop others since more people are working on it than others
:) And no new projects can be started as they're smaller etc than the
already existing ones.

And btw, it bugs me a bit that #openmoko-cdevel is concidered to be
SHR only (current topic: "Openmoko Community Developer's Channel --
Open developer discussion on all firmware images, packages, and
software | Joint FSO|SHR Users & Developers Convention: Soon talks'
video and slides on
http://www.shr-project.org/trac/wiki/FSOSHRUDCON%2709 | Newest
SHR-unstable ***IMPORTANT NOTICE***: opkg was called opkg-cl, it is
fixed now (opkg[-cl] upgrade)". But this is a bit off-topic.. Just had
enough of the 'SHR only' -attitude..

Few arguments for SHR over Om2009: more people working on it, develops
faster, most of decisions are done by community, nice way for sending
and maintain patches, reachable people maintaining distro (so your app
can even be added to default image), perspectives for future.  IRC

Decision is up to you, but I prefer SHR. Fast, stable, usable - as
Om2009, but it has also more things behind scenes which Om2009 don't
have ;)

Depends on what you want to work on, but if you have a freerunner, my
suggestion is to install om2009 unstable there (see

I think you should probably get started with "themes".  In the various 
windowing toolkits that are in use there are themes that control how 
widgets are drawn and such.  For example, the GTK theme files are here:

/usr/share/themes/Moko/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

See this ML post:

http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2008-August/025711.html

There should be similar mechanisms for theming the other toolkits, such 
as qtopia somewhere as well.

So, that allows you to control the appearance of the existing widgets 
and such.  Next you'll need to actually start changing the code of the 
apps that actually draw the widgets.  You'll need to download the 
development environment and start looking at the code.  Which is beyond 
my abilities right now, but there is a bit of info floating around on 
the ML and in the wiki about getting this all set up.

HTH! :)

2008-08-11 Thread chris.barnard
Hi All,
   
  I don't usually use mailing lists, so I hope it's not bad etiquette just to 
say hi!
   
  I've bought a Neo Freerunner and debug board - all looks pretty good so far. 
This is my first real use of Linux and I'm beginning to feel like I'm throwing 
myself off the deep end a bit, but I'm a self-taught programmer by profession 
so hopefully I can get the hang of it. I've tried out the Qtopia GTA02 release 
and now the OM2008.08 release, finally managed to get connected to the internet 
and am just working my way through a few installers.
   
  What really interested me about this project however was the possibility that 
I might be able to get into the user interface development a bit. I have a few 
ideas for a mobile GUI that I'd like to put into practice. So far, most of my 
research has brought up details on building applications, but very little on 
messing about with interface underneath. Is there currently an SDK or any form 
of information that can help me get started with this? I hope I haven't missed 
any FAQs or something obvious, but I really have been searching for days!
   
  Thanks,
   
  Chris.

I have seen a commit just this morning by the username abraxa for
openmoko-mediaplayer2 with changes to a lot of files. But that doesn't
mean it is actively developed.
Anyway, I managed to play some songs after manually creating a
playlist (the in-program editor does not work).

Don't know, however, if mediaplayer supports or ever will video media.

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Media_Player is currently at the status
"May never be implemented". The current SVN code doesn't work, simply
because gstreamer doesn't yet work (while alsa does: I've played music
files from /media/card using ogg123).

There was another music player under the old (outdated) user interface
that didn't use gstreamer (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Music_Player).

Source code for both are in the repositories.

Hi :

These are suggestions for QEMU use in general, so if you are already
familiar with QEMU and are wondering specifically about making OpenMoko more
sprightly, you'll have to be more specific (and perhaps ask on the devel
list, where the deep magic happens).

QEMU is CPU-bound and a memory hog, so make sure you are giving it as much
memory as you can. OpenMoko shouldn't need a ton of memory, but I don't
think it would hurt to give it more than it needs - say, a gigabyte. If you
need to put more memory into your computer, this would be a good time. If
you are using a processor with hyperthreading, ensure that the QEMU process
is running on real cores and not a virtual core.

QEMU necessarily has some overhead because of the way that it is designed,
but there is a kernel module called kqemu that overcomes the overhead,
making the VM run at nearly the speed it would on bare metal.

Best of luck wrangling QEMU into shape!

Somebody will certainly look into doing this, but at this time not even
I have a final case sample (and Sean has only one!!)

I guess there will be a press kit eventually, but that's more of a
'Phaes 1+' / 'Phase 2' kind of item.

Would it be feasable, to re-scale the images up to 300dpi?  sure, this
will create slightly blurred/blocky photos, but I think you would get
enough quality for it to work?
