  Hi,

the german Nokia Online-Shop finally accepted my discount code 
and gave me a 100% discount. I only have to pay for shipping,
regular is 5 euros, express is 13 euros.

Re: [maemo-developers] Re: high speed (52/48Mhz) MMC mode added

2006-11-28 Thread Armin M. Warda
  Hi,

I booted the kernel from
http://fanoush.webpark.cz/maemo/zImage-su-18-200639-2gb-mmcplus52mhz.zip

As expected, my MMC is being read 4x faster with this kernel, 
but unfortunately the device fails to connect to my WEP 128bit 
encrypted Netgear MR814v2 WLAN if I use this kernel. Thus I 
reverted to the default kernel, which has no such problem.

I repeated the test three times, the result was always reproduced.

  regards, Armin.

You might also consider these:

 I want to make sure I can not get too overwhelmed with information, but
 I would be more than willing to watch other sites. So please lay them on
 me and I will look into it.

 As a request, I would apprecicate a group of editors, that I could pass

 both native English and non-native English speakers as editors so I
 don't use too many strange constructs.

  For some background, I have been involved in Linux embedded

  2002. Since then I stayed away from the Linux PDA world and stuck to

  functionality.
 
  If anyone else was taking this up already I'll happily step back, but
  the offer stands.

 There is maemo-list-user-packages that you could use as
 a starting point.

But maemo-list-user-packages only lists packages with category user/*.
This means, e.g. if you installed ssh, it will not be listed.

Alternatively, take the output of dpkg-query -l from a fresh flash,
then diff it with the one from your customized device.

 By the way, can someone confirm or deny that the backup tool
 does not back up your /etc/apt/sources.list and therefore you
 will have to re-add all the application manager repositories
 manually?

Confirmed. Thus it is a good idea to copy it to the MMC before 
you do the backup/reflash/restore upgrade-procedure.

[maemo-developers] merged some Maemo-Mapper patches

2006-10-03 Thread Armin M. Warda
  Hi Cezary,

I merged your 'GPS-Info patch' for Maemo-Mapper 1.1
http://eko.one.pl/files/n770/maemo-mapper/gpsinfo/gpsinfo-20061002.diff
with my set of patches.

My patches modify the 1.1 version of John Costigan's Maemo Mapper to 
provide a second set of URI/Cache, e.g. to alternate between street 
maps and satellite images. The ESC-hardware-key now toggles the 
URI/Cache settings. (In the original version it toggles show/hide 
tracks.)

The modified version also introduces the possibility to operate with 
closed cover. (This is very useful for outdoor activities, such as 
hiking, walking, climbing, kanuing, cycling,..) If you want to 
disable the default behaviour, which disconnects the bluetooth GPS 
connection when the cover is closed, you have to unset the global 
configuration parameter 'Tools' - 'Control Panel' - Connectivity' 
- 'Disconnect when cover on device' 
(this is Gconf-Key /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/disconnect_on_cover).

Here are the patches to be applied against John Costigan's original 
source file maemo-mapper.c:

http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-0.patch
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-1.patch
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-2.patch
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-3.patch
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-4.patch
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-5.patch

The complete modified source with all patches applied:
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-5.c

And an ARMEL-executable for testing:
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-5

No deb package yet.

To try this version, you must have ITOS2006 with Maemo-Mapper 1.1 
installed and then have to perform these step on the device via 
osso-xterm or ssh:

$ gainroot
# cd /usr/bin
# mv maemo-mapper maemo-mapper.orig
# wget http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-5
# mv maemo-mapper-1.1-cj-aw-5 maemo-mapper
# chmod +x maemo-mapper

Not yet tested much.

  regards, Armin.

P.S.: ...how about merging PoI into this version?

Re: [maemo-developers] X Window export DISPLAY

2006-03-04 Thread Armin M. Warda
  Hi,

with the OpenSSH client on your Nokia770 and using X11-Forwarding 
(-X) you can display X11-applications running on other (Unix-) systems 
on your Nokia 770. 

Here is a snapshot: http://armin-warda.de/nokia770-displaying-yast.png
Yast is running on 'jojo', a SuSE Linux system, and is displayed on 
the Nokia770.

Is this what you were asking for?

Not everything runs smooth, it looks like the maemo's X-server lacks 
some features/extensions of other X-server. And there is the 
restriction, that the window manager of the Nokia 770 does not display 
an icon for an X11-forwarded window, thus you should not minimize it, 
because you would not be able to maximize it again.

The Dropbear SSH client does not support X11-forwarding.

  Armin.

2006-02-26 Thread Armin M. Warda
  Hi,

some minor enhancements to my version of Jakub's Load-Plugin applet:

http://www.arminwarda.mynetcologne.de/load-plugin-aw_0.2.7-1_arm.deb
http://www.arminwarda.mynetcologne.de/load-plugin-aw_0.2.7-1.tar.gz
http://www.arminwarda.mynetcologne.de/patch4

Changes in the new version:
- no swapon/off menu-entry if no swap configured (swapname is empty)
- OK/Cancel confirmation-box after swapon/off menu-entry is selected

Remember, you have to add the following line to /etc/sudoers manually:
user ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/swapon *, /sbin/swapoff *

Do you think the Load-Plugin applet with swapon/off is now 
end-user-ready and should be linked to from the Maemo 
ApplicationCatalog Wiki?

   Hi,

 attached you find three patches for Jakub's Load-Plugin applet.
 I applied these changes to the source code downloaded from:

 http://koti.welho.com/jpavelek/tmp/770/load-plugin_0.2.5-1.tar.gz

 My code-changes are split into three incremental steps to make it
 easier to understand (and improve ;-) them:

 - patch1 adds a 'swapfile' configuration string to the settings
 menu. - patch2 makes all configuration settings persistent via
 gconf. - patch3 adds the swapon/off menu-entry and logic.

 The Load-Plugin runs as 'user', swapon and swapoff need 'root',
 thus you have to add the following line to /etc/sudoers manually:
 user ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/swapon *, /sbin/swapoff *

 Hopefully my changes are picked up, cleaned up, tested, and make it
 into the next main release.

 (Btw., I dropped auto-discovery of active swaps, because I think
 there is no need to auto-activate a swap on reboot via /etc/rc2.d/
 anymore, when swapon/off is just one click away...)

   Armin.

 P.S.: With 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot' - how can I make sure the
 produced shared object is 'stripped' before packaging occurs?

Re: [maemo-developers] Adding swapon/off to Jakub's Load-Plugin applet - deb-package

2006-02-24 Thread Armin M. Warda
  Hi,

it took some more files to modify besides the changelog, 
but I think I finally succeeded to fork Jakub's release:

http://www.arminwarda.mynetcologne.de/load-plugin-aw_0.2.6-1_arm.deb
http://www.arminwarda.mynetcologne.de/load-plugin-aw_0.2.6-1.tar.gz 

I posted the patches earlier on this list, still hope that Jakub
will pick  clean them up and continue to maintain the package.

Please remember, this modified Load-Plugin applet has only 
been tested by me and could ruin your device. Be careful.
I will not add the modified Load-Plugin applet to the Maemo 
ApplicationCatalog Wiki until at least some positive test reports 
have been posted here.

  Armin.

  How about hooking swapoff to the hotplug event for the MMC card

Yes, I really would like to try this, but I do not know how this has 
to be done. Can anybody lend me a hand? (Of cause I would make 
this feature optional, with an enable/disable checkbox in the 
settings.)

 Yes, *please* hook the cover open/cover close events and
 enable/disable swap as appropriate.

But this will only make sense for a swap living on the RS-MMC.
If you are running with a swap file on the internal flash,
you would not want to swapoff when the RS-MMC lid is opened...

Do you think, detection of the prefix /dev/mmcblk0 for a swap device -
or /media/mmc1/ for a swap file - in /proc/swaps, is good enough to 
conclude, that the swap lives on the RS-MMC? Is absense of these 
prefixes good enough to conclude, that the swap down _not_ live on 
the RS-MMC?

 Also, please scan not just for swap files, but also for swap
 partitions -

Yes, via /proc/swaps I autodetect an active swap-file or -device, 
if none has been configured in the Load-Plugin applet settings. 

 I prefer to have a swap partition

Me too, I use /dev/mmcblk0p2 - I repartitioned the RS-MMC with two
partitions: mmcblk0p1 with 480MB FAT and mmcblk0p2 with 30 MB swap.
USB-plugging the N770 to the PC only umounts the 1st partition,
the swap on the seconds remains available.

Re: [maemo-developers] Where can I find the sources for the load-plugin?

2006-02-18 Thread Armin M. Warda
  Hi,

Jakub has released the sources (LGPL):

http://koti.welho.com/jpavelek/tmp/770/load-plugin_0.2.5-1.tar.gz

(Unfortunately he lost the sources of all recent versions, the now 
open-sourced version lacks the process-listing and -killer feature of 
binary-only version 0.2.4)

I am currently trying to add a swapon/off menu entry to the source.

Some difficulties I face:
1.) want to add a persistent application setting for the swap device
2.) the applet runs as user, swapon/off needs root

For 1.) I am simply struggling with gconf, wrt. 2.) I am considering 
to add two lines to /etc/sudoers and call sudo /sbin/swapoff ... 
etc. from the applet. Any better ideas or hints?

  Armin.

Hi,
 
  the CPU/Mem/Screenshot applet alias Load-Plugin is great!

  I would like to add a 'swapon/swapoff' entry to the menu
  of the applet, but can't find the sources.
 
  This function would be very useful for all people who are
  using a swap partition such as /dev/mmcblk0p2 on their
  RS-MMC: before you hotplug-remove the RS-MMC you would
  swapoff (otherwise the 770 would crash), and after
  hotplug-insert the RS-MMC you could swapon again.
 
  If successfull I would post a patch. But I can't find the source!
 
Armin.

Re: [maemo-developers] Automatic Startup of Device with no reason

2006-02-13 Thread Armin M. Warda
  Hi Manfred,

it seems like you accidently 8-) solved something discussed in 

http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2006-January/002390.html

Which release are you running? 3.2005.51-13 ?
Maybe you somehow set a RTC-alarm in the device? Via /proc?
Have you been testing alarms in any PIM application? GPE? DejaPIM?

Sorry, I don't have a clue.

  regards, Armin.

 The device was switched off several hours ago and was definitely
 turned off. Startup was on each of the last three days at the same
 time. I'd appreciate any explanation for that behavior.
