hacker edition status and future?

2007-07-16 Thread Frantisek Dufka
Hello,

since now the project is revived and some work is going on, I'd like to 
raise this again. It would be nice if someone involved in this project 
could comment this
http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2007-May/010280.html

I guess this project is not exactly top secret like regular firmwares so 
more open process would be nice.

I have also raised it here 
https://garage.maemo.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=612 , feel free to 
answer where it is appropriate. Opinions can differ but I still think 
this list would be better for such discussion due to bigger audience

hildon-1: Deprecated/removed widgets?

2007-07-16 Thread Murray Cumming

These widgets/headers seem to have been removed from hildon-libs
https://stage.maemo.org/svn/maemo/projects/haf/trunk/hildon-libs/
as it was changed to hildon-1 (in sardine, for Maemo Chinook)
https://stage.maemo.org/svn/maemo/projects/haf/trunk/hildon-1/

hildon-add-home-dialog.h
hildon-color-popup.h
hildon-color-selector.h
hildon-dialoghelp.h
hildon-grid.h
hildon-grid-item.h
hildon-name-password-dialog.h
hildon-scroll-area.h
hildon-telephone-editor.h
hildon-input-mode-hint.h

Have they moved to some other library? Have they just been removed, or
have some been changed or replaced by other particular widgets?

Some weird questions about speech2text, text2speech, GPS ...

2007-07-16 Thread Marco Solari
Hi, everybody !
I'm new on this list, so be patient, please ... ;-)
I would like to know if there is any project active on the Nokia platform to
allow:
 - speech to text (voice synthesis)
 - text to speech (vocal commands)
 - GPS receiver direct interface (some kind of driver to allow a direct
reading from GPS receiver output, ie: current point in space, velocity,
direction ...).

I am currently evaluating the porting to the ARM architecture of open-source
projects 'rsynth' and 'festival' for text2speech, and 'pockesphinx' for
speech2text ...
I would also like to have some feedback about the feasibility and usability
of adaptive technology features like speech2text and text2speech on the
current HW platform (N800).

Thanks in advance for Your attention.
Cheers.

Marco

Re: Images don't show up on nokia 770

2007-07-16 Thread Jani Mikkonen

 made it a deb package, and installed it on nokia 770. When I start the
 program using commandline as root, it works perfect. 

If it works as root but not as user, most obvious reason is
filemode/access rights of those images of yours or you are trying to
access them from wrong location.

Check who's the owner, whats the location they are stored and what are
the chmod bits for the files..

Where did you install ssh from?

I tested upgrading 4.2007 to Sardine unstable and installed ssh and it
worked OK.

Both dbus and ssh _do_ contain /var/run, but that's OK since it is a
directory in both.  Right now, I suspect you have a freaky ssh package
that is causing the problems.

Try uninstalling ssh and reinstalling it again from the Sardine
repository.

   mkdir: cannot create directory '/var/run/': No such file or directory

This is quite weird as well.  Can you try to figure out why

mkdir /var/run/

fails?  Flash full?  /var is a symlink to a non-existing location?

Hi, I'm working on speech recognition for the N800.  Plans and status 
can be found at http://lima.lti.cs.cmu.edu/mediawiki/PocketSphinx and 
http://lima.lti.cs.cmu.edu/mediawiki/GStreamerSphinx

To summarize:

 * ALSA doesn't work very well so we need to use GStreamer for audio input
 * This is not actually very hard.  I'm working on a GStreamer plugin 
for PocketSphinx.  Currently it is in proof of concept stage, i.e. it 
recognizes speech but isn't configurable or stable, you can get it at 
https://cmusphinx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cmusphinx/trunk/gst-pocketsphinx/
 * The N800 is a bit slower than I expected (slower than my 
first-generation iPaq) so we will have to do some more tuning to get 
acceptable performance for large-vocabulary tasks like dictation.  For 
simple commands it should be just fine though.
 * I haven't put up acoustic models yet but will do so pretty soon.  The 
ones included with PocketSphinx will not work because they expect 16kHz 
sampling rate, and the N800 can only do 8kHz.  On the bright side the 
audio quality from the lapel microphone on the headset that comes with 
the device is pretty good (the onboard mic is not suitable for speech 
recognition).

Stuff I would appreciate some help with includes:

 * GStreamer.
 * How to create a new input method.

True, but it's been failing on every occasion I've tried to upgrade in the past

 But of course, thanks for reporting the problem! :) Let's try to

 Where did you install ssh from?

It's regular old openssh. I've been having this same problem with regular 
openssh installed on 3.2007 and also openssh on a fresh install of 4.2007. The 
only apps I have installed on 4.2007 are xterm, openssh, Skype and Pidgin.

 
 Both dbus and ssh _do_ contain /var/run, but that's OK since it is a
 directory in both.  Right now, I suspect you have a freaky ssh package
 that is causing the problems.
 
Prior to the upgrade, my /var/run on the SD card is as follows:

lrwxrwxrwx1 root root9 Jul 16 14:35 /var/run - 
/tmp/.run

This is my sources.list:

deb http://repository.maemo.org sardine main non-free

and these are the commands I'm executing - it's the upgrade that is failing, 
the hildon install goes without a hitch:

apt-get update
apt-get install hildon-application-framework
apt-get -y --force-yes upgrade

Are these repositories/commands still correct? The Wiki[1] seems to have a 
mistake in step 1.5 of the device upgrade where it recommends that sources.list 
should contain

deb  unstable main non-free

which doesn't look right!

I've just run a full upgrade against 4.2007 + xterm/openssh/Skype/Pidgin, all

ANNOUNCE: Internet Communications Software Update for N800

2007-07-16 Thread Naba Kumar
Hi all,

Nokia OSSO happily announces the release of the 'Internet Communications
Software development update' for Maemo. This update brings you the
latest developments in Internet messaging and call on Nokia n800 device
destined for next Internet Tablet OS release.

This release is a beta release and therefore may not be suitable for
serious personal use. However, if you are interested in helping improve
it, the update should be fairly usable and we encourage to try it.

What is it?
---
Internet Communications Software is a subsystem in Internet tablet OS
2007, running on Nokia n800 device, that handles presence, chat, voip
and video call. It is based on Telepathy framework and components as
explained at http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/

What is new?

Number of things have improved since the last public update (Internet
tablet OS 2007). Following are some of them:

SIP support

 * Basic one-to-one VoIP calls
 * Messaging (using the MESSAGE method of SIMPLE).
 * Video call between two N800 devices.
 * NAT traversal using STUN.

XMPP support enhancements

 * Avatars support
 * Presence status message
 * Google Talk relay support

User interface updates

 * Updates in the Internet call UI
 * Updates in the Chat UI
 * Updates in the Account configuration UI
 * Updates in the Addressbook UI

New APIs

 * Telepathy
 * Mission Control
 * Accounts
 * Telepathy-glib

Download and screenshots

http://rtcomm.garage.maemo.org/

Open the download link in n800 browser and go to install section

Packages

Following packages are updated in the release:

libtelepathy 0.0.55-0osso3
telepathy-gabble 0.5.12-0osso4
telepathy-mission-control4.26-1beta2
telepathy-stream-engine  0.3.23-0osso2.2

osso-voip-ui 2.0.42-1beta5

Limitations
---
UI
 * Helps are missing
 * It only speaks English
 * Theming is missing (only default one is supported)

SIP
 * Calls fail to establish media streams when the device is behind a
symmetric NAT and the proxies do not deploy transparent media relaying.
 * Calls forked to multiple endpoints may fail to establish media
streams.
 * Video is not interoperable with other implementations.
 * DTMF (RFC4733) is not reliable

Feedback

You are welcome to give your feedback on this software to:

 * maemo-devel mailing list: maemo-developers@maemo.org
 * Maemo bugzilla, RTCom component: http://bugzilla.maemo.org/
 * Rtcomm mailing address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks and enjoy!

Yes, but only for you. :-)

 Prior to the upgrade, my /var/run on the SD card is as follows:

   lrwxrwxrwx1 root root9 Jul 16 14:35 /var/run - 
 /tmp/.run

Aha!

I can reproduce your problem this way:

   dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/dbus_1.0.2-0osso8_armel.deb 
(--unpack):
   trying to overwrite `/var/run', which is also in package ssh
   [...]

So, I conclude that something is wrong with your /tmp/.run and dpkg
just gets cnfused about whether /var/run is a directory or not and
singling out ssh as the culprit by chance.

Can you debug the issues with /var/run a bit on your side?

 Are these repositories/commands still correct?

They are correct, but the following should be better:

   deb http://repository.maemo.org/sardine unstable main non-free

   # apt-get upgrade
   # apt-get install hildon-application-framework
   # apt-get upgrade

 The Wiki[1] seems to have a mistake in step 1.5 of the device
 upgrade where it recommends that sources.list should contain

   deb  unstable main non-free

Some wiki markup problem, I'll check.

 When You speak about acoustic models, You mean English acoustic models,

Yes, to get good accuracy, you need a different acoustic model for each 
language (and also preferably for different speaking styles, recording 
device, etc...)  CMU will be releasing some more free acoustic models 
soon but I don't think Italian is one of the languages that we have.  
The GlobalPhone Project 
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tanja/GlobalPhone/index-e-wel.html collected a 
lot of data from different languages and built multi-lingual acoustic 
models but I don't believe these are publicly available.

However, Spanish (particularly American Spanish) acoustic models would 
probably work reasonably well for Italian, and we are going to release 
some of them soon.

It's a large amount of work to make an acoustic model - for anything 
more than simple tasks you need to have at least 15 hours of speech from 
a number of different speakers.  To actually record and transcribe this 
yourself is a lot of work, so it's advisable to use pre-existing 
databases of speech, such as you can get from the LDC 
(http://ldc.upenn.edu/) - I think there is a European consortium similar 
to this but I don't recall the name.  Obviously there is a lot of data 
out there, such as radio and TV, European and national parliaments, but 
the problem is getting ahold of it and putting it into a form suitable 
for training.

If you only need it to recognize your own speech then this is quite a 
lot easier and you won't have to record more than 500 sentences or so.  
We have a project here at CMU which allows you to do this over the Web, 
but it's not open to the public yet.

it would be great if you could come up with a more detailed version of
the 'writing own connection managers' howto, since gabble is far to
complex to serve as a blueprint for other managers.

Re: Sardine device upgrade failing for days now

2007-07-16 Thread Neil MacLeod
Hi Marius

Manually creating /tmp/.run has now resulted in a successful Sardine upgrade 
using the sardine rather than unstable repo.

I still don't think dbus should care whether /var/run physically exists or not, 
but assuming that isn't going to change it would be worth adding an extra step 
to the Wiki device upgrade instructions mentioning the need to mkdir 
/tmp/.run once the copy is completed (and after the chroot!)

If unstable is synched correctly I'll use unstable in future, though it would 
be nice to understand why we need two Sardine repositories!

Cheers
Neil

While triaging that bug I wrote a small test program. So, if you're

You might also be interested in the geoinformation framework Geoclue (at

RE: ANNOUNCE: Internet Communications Software Update for N800

2007-07-16 Thread quim.gil
Hi, I just talked to Naba, currently offline. This issue is known and
confirmed now. It is caused by a last minute change. We can't fix it
tonight but we hope to fix it tomorrow morning asap.

As you see this is really software under development, fresh meat
released publicly to be shared with other developers. Please be cautious
when recommending this update to end users because this is not even a
beta release as Nokia understands beta releases (of end user products).

Thanks for your understanding. Sorry for this bug, but at least you got
the news today. More news to come soon (and if you happen to be in
GUADEC come and meet the developers).

Re: Sardine device upgrade failing for days now

Ok!  Thanks for persisting! :)

 I still don't think dbus should care whether /var/run physically
 exists or not,

This has nothing to do with dbus, and all with dpkg.  The dbus package
contains a directory /var/run/dbus and dpkg attempts to dutifully
create it.  It fails in an obscure way because of a broken symlink,
however, and produces the misleading error message that the dbus
package contains the same file as some another package that also
happens to contain the /var/run/ directory.  That it happened with
dbus and ssh in your case is a coincidence.

Hacking the dbus package to get over this is ugly and will not solve
the problem.  We would have to put the same ugly hack into all
packages that contain /var/run/.

The right thing is to make sure that the system has a useable
/var/run, always.

 but assuming that isn't going to change it would be worth adding an
 extra step to the Wiki device upgrade instructions mentioning the
 need to mkdir /tmp/.run once the copy is completed (and after the
 chroot!)

Yes, that might be acceptable to save a reboot.  But I guess there
might more issues when you chroot.  What about /proc, /sysfs, and
/dev?  I'll have to check the instructions...

 If unstable is synched correctly I'll use unstable in future, though
 it would be nice to understand why we need two Sardine repositories!

Hrmm, yeah, we don't _need_ two repositories.  We only have two right
now because I didn't get around to make the 'sardine' one unneccesary.

The 'unstable' one is the only one we will have in the future.  It
also contains 'testing', for example (which isn't really useful yet).

Launch of Mobile and Internet Linux Project (moblin.org)

2007-07-16 Thread Spencer, Bob

We are happy to announce the launch of the Mobile  Internet Linux
Project on http://moblin.org . Moblin.org is an umbrella open source
project focused on the development of Linux for Intel-based devices.
Moblin.org will also be an incubator for prototyping new ideas and
building a community of developers around them. Currently, Moblin.org
hosts a number of projects including an image creator, a UI framework, a
power policy manager and various non-PC oriented applications and
software components. The work so far has been focused on Intel based
devices but is open to contributions for support of other architectures.

We share a lot with the Maemo community as we are built on GNOME Mobile
components, use the Hildon Application Framework,  and share many of the
same UI design goals for hand-held mobile devices.  We look forward to
synergy between the two communities.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Internet Communications Software Update for N800

2007-07-16 Thread Michael Wiktowy
This is great news! I look forward to trying it out on my N800 (and
filling bugzilla reports :]).

Not only is this how I wished the SIP integration would be since the
beginning of the 770 but it is also very nice to see some more Nokia
internal development exposed to the outside world.

Best regards,
/Mike

hacker edition status and future?

2007-07-16 Thread Joni Valtanen
 Hello,
 
 since now the project is revived and some work is going on, I'd like
to
 raise this again. It would be nice if someone involved in this project
 could comment this
 http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2007-May/010280.html

Next version is coming as rootfs. There is no kernel updates.

 I guess this project is not exactly top secret like regular firmwares
 so
 more open process would be nice.

Same components are used as in n800 version, but the kernel is older
2.6.16. There is lot of work if n800 version of the kernel is used.

 I have also raised it here
 https://garage.maemo.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=612 , feel free to
 answer where it is appropriate. Opinions can differ but I still think
 this list would be better for such discussion due to bigger audience
 http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2007-May/010283.html

To discussion yes, patches to garage-project.

 Frantisek

I'll try to check to day those mail.

- Joni
