I wanted to contribute to a centralized wiki for the 770. Even though this popular wiki existed and it uses my favorite wiki engine http://www.internettablettalk.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page , I chose the Maemo wiki because I didn't want to dilute the effort that was already in place. It feels like the Maemo wiki/cms engine change was a step back. It is hard to build up a community of content editors for a project. Content system changes for a project can be a set back. My contributions to the Maemo wiki have diminised ( and all other wikis that I contribute too) because of work and family constraints. The larger question for me is, "Do I still buy a new 800?" Without new hardware, then there may be less reason for me to contribute. It is difficult to find my older contributions and edit them for my existing 770 platform. In addition, I am not interested in the Apple iPhone, but the openmoko http://www.openmoko.org/ makes the 800 a more difficult choice because the WAF, Wife approval Factor, would not be favorable for two $350+ US purchases. What makes the neo1973 give the 800 a run for the money is that the August Linux Journal says that Sun will put the JavaFX on the platform. I confirmed that here http://blogs.sun.com/brewin/entry/fic_and_openmoko_thank_you and here http://blogs.sun.com/jonathan/entry/when_not_where . Don't worry I am a Sun customer. The Gnome desktop of Solaris 10 is what I was expecting for Solaris 9. Let's see what the hype brings because Sun has not been very focused for the last several years in my experience. Chuckle, they might even run an OpenSolaris kernel on the neo1973. However, with what I am seeing, it certainly is a very interesting place that Nokia finds themselves in right now. For a number of reasons provided through out this email, my Maemo content production has been greatly frozen. Moreover, it appears in my view of the world that, Nokia may have to think about ways that they competitively keep Open Source developers interested in the Maemo platform. > - Mention good things / bad things of the current wiki (and what would > you do). > Pluses It appears to be integrated with the Maemo garage account login. The pages from the MoinMoin wiki were converted. I don't have to use docbook to create the content. (I am not trying to start a flame war here, but docbook just didn't work for me. The whole edit, svn/cvs checkin, compile, publish thing was too cumbersome. In my experience, wikis or cms systems allow for flexible changes and redirection of a page in a new direction. Note this is precisely what drives people daffy about wikis. It appears to me that some people that don't like wikis miss the pre-planning and editorial control of the page or site.) The edit tags are not too different from MoinMoin but the tags do present a stumbling block. MoinMoin, MediaWiki, Twiki, appear to be the big three user content systems for many Open Source projects. The content engine change does move in another direction. Minuses: It was not obvious that a Maemo garage account login was required right away. The converted MoinMoin wiki pages lost a great deal of their formatting. Until I poked around in the floating tool's folder> orphaned pages, I could not find all the MoinMoin content. For example, I tried to make https://maemo.org/community/wiki/flasher_tool_usage.html look like http://maemo.org/community/community-projects/getting-started . All the original formatting has been lost. I have really been busy with family life. How do I go about completing the getting-started page since it bugs me that I left the page high and dry without the final revision polish that I was struggling to say? In the new engine, I tried to perform a preview of a page before saving my changes, the floating tool's page> view menu lost my changes. My expectations are that I would have seen a preview and then saw my spelling error. So it cost me an edit page, lose page edit, edit page, save page, view resulting saved page, edit page again for spelling error that I created in the replacement edit, before finally saving

Hint "std::string::compare ()"
Hint "std::operator< "
I'd start here. It has been a long time since I looked at gdb output of
someone else's code. The thing that I see as a hint is string::compare
from the std library. I am thinking <> operations, etc but
this looks to be c++ code. So go back and check how you handle your
string compare operations. What are the inputs to the string
comparisons, etc. Are your string lengths long enough? Do you have
null terminated strings. Have you properly initialized the variables
that are being used. These are things that I would look for in a
segmentation fault. These ideas may help with a porting issue too.
I inherited a bunch of Oracle Pro*C code once upon a time. I had to
clean and clean and clean that program. Much of it had to do with
making sure that the string lengths were of the right length. The other
issue was improperly initialized variables. That crap still runs in the
middle of the night. However, I have been successfully sleeping through
the night for many years now. Moreover, If gdb is taxing your mind,
there's nothing that says you can put some printf statements to locate
where the program segfaults.
I hope this helps.

Re: [maemo-developers] maemo-apps.org application catalog

In my > opinion, it is quite a large page already, slow to open and hard to > navigate. A > > Thoughts? Maemo is a growing community. In some ways I see Maemo experiencing the same things that happened to the Fedora effort. Red Hat wanted to involve the community just like Nokia is doing. They did not create a forum and wiki right away so someone else did. Eventually a community evolves solving some of the problems. Maemo is spread out. The garage was a great idea of Nokia's to try an pull all those applications into one location as developers get used to the idea. Some developers like to have their own sites so you will never see them join the garage. The wiki application page was a good solution to collecting all these far flung resources and applications. Now that there are a larger number of applications the catalog needs to evolve too as you mention. Here are a number of ways to evolve the catalog. Some of these help me solve these problems for myself as a Nokia 770 user. 1.) When a wiki is young it is just good to "throw" content out there in order to seed pages for the community to work on. It encourages others to say on this is started I can add some of my knowledge to it. There's enough content now in the Maemo wiki that categories need to be applied to some of the pages. You can see a list here http://maemo.org/maemowiki/CategoryCategory . One of the benefits that the categories provides is a self maintaining list of pages. All you have to do is add one or more categories to a page and it is automatically in the list(s). For example, the Flasher page, http://maemo.org/maemowiki/Flasher_tool_usage , has two categories, CategoryFlashing CategoryHowToMisc. When someone clicks on the CategoryFlashing link of the Flasher_tool_usage page, then you can see all the related pages that have been classified the same way as shown here http://maemo.org/maemowiki/CategoryFlashing . You see it would be much easier to add a Misc link to the CategoryHowToMisc page, on the HowTo page http://maemo.org/maemowiki/CategoryHowToMisc , than to maintain the individual links as it is presently done on the HowTo page, http://maemo.org/maemowiki/HowTo . So far I just have the Misc section categorized and the other how to categories created. 2.) Even with the categorized pages, a list of applications needs to be maintained to locate all the available applications. There are some problems with this idea too. This page would just have wiki page names on it. Here's an example that I can show you on another wiki I hack on http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=Third_Party_Themes . The Third Party Themes page has a list of a similar project with far flung resources. A new user can come to this page and "shop" for either free or cost themes for their content management system. 3.) The problem that Siarhei points out is that the catalog page is too slow to load. Item 2 above points to a solution for resolving this problem. The wiki detailed content that is now on the main application page can be cut and pasted into individual pages. At first just the initial content from the main page can be cut and pasted into a new page. For example, AppOssoXterm would be used for the ossoxterm application. The leading App would help prevent other page name conflicts, etc. in the Maemo wiki. Here are two example pages from the other wiki http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=Default http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=Colors . Note that both the pages follow a similar template. An application template can be developed for the Nokia application pages. In fact, the current Maemo catalog page has the rough outline of what each individual page should contain. Note two things that I am starting to do with the Colors page. I have created a category so that a person can shop by a theme author. Example, http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=Category:En_author_Sharondippity . Second, this catalog is getting so large that maintaining the theme catalog is becoming a core. It looks like it is about time to replace the hand maintained page with the category page http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Third_Party_Themes_Other . Ahhh but I am waiting to do that until all the individual theme pages are categorized. I alluded to this maintenance problem in item 2. The advantage that this solution provides is a flexible database that others can freely add to in the wiki style of edit this page. All the major words are indexed by the MoinMoin wiki engine. In addition, the major web search engines also index the content in the wiki. In the future, the style of the "application database" can be changed as new features arise. The database is located o

Perhaps a port of gdialog, xsu, and the use of any one of these scripts adapted to the Maemo environment would do the trick http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/cat-executing.php http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/cat-filesysmgt.php . I just tried making a launcher for vim. The launcher showed up in extras but did not fire up vim even though I had a string of shell commands from gainroot on to the actual vim command. I think a gui has to be involved to start off with. So gdialog--I think there's a replacement for it--are very light gui applications. gdialog may be enough to fill the gui bill and make the text based applications work. With gdialog you can use different widgets for input as I recall. It would be interesting if the Maemo filemanger could have a scripts directory too. Oh and don't forget to look into the status bar application found here http://maemo-hackers.org/wiki/OssoXterm . Perhaps some saved commands will do the trick? At least they document poking values into /home/user/.osso/appinstaller. Of course the challenge is doing something with root. Hence, my first approach without coding - gdialog. The big challenge for me right now is time. So if someone can see if gdialog ports easy, I'd love to hear about it! ;-) Regards, Greg -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFE5p6xyxe5L6mr7IRAjypAJ95tCvIkAnbeGgF/7HHfKRjCUZkYQCeI/A1 Ci9elwEbjhs+EON1xOhxq7s= =Oi8/ -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Regards, Greg "Example: $ cvs ci README -m "This patch will solve a problem on Bug [#123] and closes task [T344]."

Hence, we don't have it yet. hehe.. as you can guess, cvstracker is for cvs and svntracker is for subversion I made the original cvstracker, someone adapted it into subversion kikov, Nice code by the way. kikov, So sould I see a "Use svn 2 Tracker" in my public info since we are using svn, right? yes this will mark the project to use svntracker repository that will make an HTTP Post to the Gforge Web server this hook is the responsible of matching the [#NUMBER] or [TNUMBER] kikov, thanks. I'll have to ask the admin about adding the plugin. and to prepare a HTTP POST with an array of the data the web server needs like the project name, the modified files, the log itself, username and so... the webserver part, receive it, and change the Task or Tracker.. well, it actually add some data into a external database, (external table I mean) then, a gforge hook in the php code, shows the list of related "commits" of a tracker (or task) kikov, Yes that's a slick bit of code that makes using trackers and tasks more friendly to developer. I think that way to be the most general as posible ( you can have the cvs server in another computer than the webserver .. ) and the cvs server don't know how to touch the database ( nor has the permissions ) kikov, Thank you again you have been most helpful pointing me in the right direction. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFEvRcxyxe5L6mr7IRAhwZAJ9z+PwxcHbeKx+XVP64/AbXCUu1RQCffd62 phnn4Q1I35w+qymwXzyxbqc= =XLNJ -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

The words that stand out to me are "segmentation fault". There's any number of reasons for a segmentation fault: A buffer is too small; A pointer is not pointing to the right place; Memory could have been release that you are now trying to use, etc. Next you need to figure out if the problem is in the gstreamer code or in the ibgstrtpjitterbuffer.so plugin that you are loading.

I know there is a ARMEL package for sqlite3 described here http://www.maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationCatalog2006 but don't know if it has the library available or sqlite3 is a static binary.

If you don't have a wireless network or other connection available, then load the deb package onto the MMC card. Click Tools>Application manager>Install new applications>v in the left corner>Package>Install from file... For some reason it seems like this option is more hidden compared to the 2005 software. Perhaps the other thing that will throw you off is that the program is called "Application manager" when it really is an Application and Library manager". The library installs just like an application then. The v in the left corner>Tools is where you could configure repository settings if you have a network connection available.

[maemo-developers] Flasher Documentation -- In Progress.
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I like wikis. ;-) Edit; Save; Instant publication; Includes CVS; and no Docbook to learn. I have been working on the seed document that was out on the wiki. I googled and found what I believe a fiasco image is. I have tried to make a hello world example by showing how to query the device. You can see my work so far. http://maemo.org/maemowiki/Flasher_tool_usage LOL. I set /bin/bash as the shell for the root user in the /etc/passwd file and couldn't gainroot again. So I started playing with the flasher as I was ready to make the device usable again for root. Several questions: * Can someone post what each module of the fiasco image would repair? It almost looks like the device uses a two stage boot loader, etc. For example would one key file fix the problem I describe above. * There are a list of RandD flags. I could not easily determine these from the "strings flasher" command. Can someone throw them in the wiki page and I'll format them if you don't have time? Oh is the flasher source available? * It looks like some params have secret handshakes too. I could not find the correct values for -flash-only * -u [arg] does that mean I can unpack one file from the fiasco? All my attempts extracted all the files. * -load, -l I cannot figure out the value of just loading a file without flashing it. Do I follow on with another command to flash? How so? All other options look to flash and load in one pop from the host PC. How do I load a file and then flash later if that is the intent? * --serial-port, -S ; --initialize-port, -I Ok what do we do here? Is this the right cable http://ucables.com/ref/DEJANRS232 for the pins in the battery compartment http://www.karoliinasalminen.com/blog/?page_id=68 ? If so then how do you use power via battery and the serial cable at the same time? * --set-root-device what are the advantages to this? Can You swap RS-MMC cards with different configurations? * --boot, -b [arg] Now this looks fun. Is there a list of known values for the kernel? Can you set single user mode or switch to runlevel three with these boot options? * --cold-flash, -c when would and how would a person cold flash a device? I presume the documented USB method is a "hot flash".
