Re: Some newbee questions about Qtmoko, navit, Vodafone GPRS and battery capacity
Ok, the battery problem is gone and navit is working. The last problem, GPRS connection with German Vodafone network, is partially solved. I had started the QtMoko which was installed on NAND (there the dialup- file was created by QtMoko). I copied and renamed the file and rebooted from sd-card. The content of /etc/ppp/peers/dialup1310986139 is: --- 115200 lcp-echo-failure 0 lcp-echo-interval 0 novj nobsdcomp novjccomp nopcomp noaccomp crtscts ipcp-accept-local noipdefault modem user vodafone demand idle 120 defaultroute connect-delay 7 remotename dialup1310986139 --- Now I am able to dial in to the Vodafone network. I set GPRS- connection to default gateway, but I can not get any webpage in Aurora or any other data (ex. pings on console). If I type in ifdown usb0 (not connected to PC!), then I can surf in web!?! Is this ok? Is there an better easier solution? The route- command shows two default gateways (I think this is the problem) and any ping s were done by using usb0- device...strange. If I switch of the usb0- device, the route entry of usb0 is automatically deleted and after ifup usb0 this entry is created again and getting data via usb0 is possible. -- Kind regaards Sebastian Reinhardt ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

There should be only one default GW. and any ping s were done by using usb0- device...strange. If I switch of the usb0- device, the route entry of usb0 is automatically deleted Are you sure.

Some newbee questions about Qtmoko, navit, Vodafone GPRS and battery capacity
Hi, a few weeks ago I purchased an Freerunner. I decided to install Qtmoko v3.5 on an 8GB sd-card. Most things working like a charm. But I have some problems: 1. I installed navit form the zip- file, according to the wiki. But I do not get the gps position, in NeronGPS I get the fix. I installed also gpsd via apt-get and by starting /usr/sbin/gpsd -F /var/run/gpsd.sock -P /var/run/gpsd.pid /dev/ttySAC1 I get NMEA output with gpsmon. The navit.xml- file includes also the line vehicle name=Local GPS profilename=car enabled=yes active=1 source=gpsd://localhost gpsd_query=w+xj . So there is the problem? 2. I tried to use Vodafone GPRS (Germany). But this did not work! I get a failure notice, that file /etc/ppp/peers/dialup1310463241 was not found. I found an example file in /usr/share/doc/ppp/examples called peers-gprs. But I am not sure about the config entries in this file and if I need another files.So has anybody an working Vodafone configuration for Germany and can tell me someting about the correct entries in these files? I made the config with the Qtmoko GUI, but these file(s) are missing :-( 3. If I switch off all radio, exccept the gsm, the battery is unloaded during night (8-9h). Is this OK or is the battery broken (due to long storage time at Handheld Linux)? Ok, these are the first questions about my new Freerunner. The additonal questions about using my VirtualLaser Keyboard (Bluetooth connection, working with my openSUSE 11.3 Notebook) and the use of an external, USB connected LAN- adapter are asked later. :-) -- Kind regaards Sebastian Reinhardt ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
