Re: USB keyboard in hostmode?
For USB Hostmode to work with power from the internal battery no hardware modification nor usb-hub is needed. I found the problem why my usb keyboard doesn't work within X. I still use 2007.2 with the newest daily builds but it seems that the xserver-kdrive-glamo module is too old. There was a bug in this module which prevents an external keyboard to be used within X. The changelog says that it is fixed, but it seems that this fixed version is not in the feeds for 2007.2. :( The keyboard works fine for me when i stop X and use it just in the console. As soon as i start X again the keyboard doesn't work anymore. Here are the ticket for this problem: http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1796 which is solved in newer versions as this log shows: http://git.openmoko.org/?p=xglamo.git;a=commit;h=cddd780c527fe923c55c1fa385fd909c419f024e If someone find out how to upgrade to the newer fixed version of this module than i'm happy to try it again. :) Ciao, Rainer Al Johnson wrote: On Tuesday 19 August 2008, Jay Vaughan wrote: Maybe i should test it with a more simple usb keyboard without any extra functions.

Re: USB keyboard in hostmode?
Hi, that was me on the planet who used the usb keyboard for various things on the Freerunner ( [1] [2] ) I'm afraid I can't really give you much help as mine just worked. Once power was applied it functioned like a usb keyboard on a desktop pc. How are you managing to connect your devices to the FreeRunner? Not much help. I know, but I can tell you about how it *should* work; basically OM2007.2 seems very keyboard friendly - whenever an application has focus you should just be able to type away at it (like the terminal in my example), you can also use the arrow keys to scroll in the application menu or simply hit m to jump straight to the mediaplayer, for example. You can also do ctrl + alt + f1 to change to a second login terminal and return to matchbox with ctrl + alt + f2. Numpty Physics works great with the keyboard shortcuts and I've sent an email or two using my employers web based email system, the keyboard and minimo. Essentially om2007.2 + keyboard = small sized linux desktop machine. There is a matchbox config file you can edit that will result in the mouse cursor being displayed - this should help your efforts there.

Re: USB keyboard in hostmode?
I use an usb female to female adapter with the standard neo usb cable to attach the usb devices. I think the problem is the keyboard itself. The keyboard has also a mouse like scrollwheel integrated. And when i take a look in the messages log i see that two devices appear when attaching the keyboard. One keyboard and one mouse. After a few tests i can say that the keyboard part isn't working at all, but the scrollwheel (mouse part) seems to works. I can use the wheel to change between the three sections at the bottom of the screen when the focus is on them. Maybe i should test it with a more simple usb keyboard without any extra functions.

Re: USB keyboard in hostmode?
I think the power supply isn't the problem because the mouse part works. I could also press the function key (a special led indicates the success) which sets the function keys to F1 - F12 and not to special logitech functions. On the back of the keyboard the specification says that it only needs 75mA current, which should be no problem at all. I think i will try it with a normal usb keyboard at work.

Re: USB keyboard in hostmode?
Now i tested it with an usb hub but the behaviour is the same. In the log it shows that it found the hub and after attaching the keyboard it found both hid devices (keyboard and mouse). But again only the mouse part works and the keyboard does nothing. The log doesn't show any relevant difference when i connect the keyboard through the hub compared to directly attached.

Re: USB keyboard in hostmode?
I think i found the problem why the keyboard isn't working. I went to a friend and after a few tests with his usb keyboard we found out, that the keyboard works, but only within the console and not in the X environment. After a short search i found a ticket which exactly describes my problem: http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1796 which is related to http://git.openmoko.org/?p=xglamo.git;a=commit;h=cddd780c527fe923c55c1fa385fd909c419f024e As solution zecke meantioned to upgrade to the latest Xglamo version which fixes this bug. But for my currently installed 2007.2 the latest version in the repository is xserver-kdrive-glamo-1:1.3.0.0+git1+4067470ea4d569bae7b4161ca998645a0c9b96e7-r6 which seems to be broken. And i don't want to install 2008.8 because it lacks too much at the moment. So how could i update my xserver-kdrive-glamo to a newer version where the usb keyboard problem is fixed?
