getting operator name and SIM card status on N900

2010-04-23 Thread William Maddler
Hello all,
I've tried googling around but got no luck.
I'd need to get current operator name a SIM card status (registered/not
registered).

Any clue or starting point? C or Python would be fine.

Thank you

I've just upgraded to latest RTCOMM beta. Right after the installation I

boot the device keeps rebooting right after hands logo is shown. Tried

You have to disable automatic network search from control panel, or at

[maemo-developers] right point to mount external partitions

2007-02-09 Thread william maddler
I'm trying to understand the best place to mount SDs partitions. Right
now I have

===

chroot /mnt/initfs/ /usr/bin/retutime -i || true

mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /media/mmc1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /media/mmc3
mount -o bind /media/mmc3/user /home/user

hostname -F /etc/hostname



but (only sometimes, and randomly) /home/user won't be mounted.
So, my question is: has anyone found the *right* first good place to
mount external partitions in order to have them mounted as soon as
possible during boot phase?

Thank you.

I'm not exactly a newbie ;)

I'd be *happy* to do that... BUT... where? Since xterm will "prevent"

Yes, the *point* is that xterm starts a non login session

That was what I did first. But then I noticed the "odd" beahviour ($HOME
always pointing to /home/user, instead of what stated in /etc/passwd).

I understand that xterm is not a login shell, that's fine, but *why* not
handling the correct $HOME? This sounds kinda strange to me.

yes, that'w what I'm doing right now.

mount -o bind /media/mmc3/user /home/user

Before mounting /home/user only contains data strictly needed for boot
(still investigating to find them).

Yes, that's possible, but then I should have been getting errors on
applications, but $HOME should have been getting the right path.

What sounds strange is that the starting path in xterm is what's
supposed to be (/media/mmc3/user), but afterward $HOME becomes /home/user.

BTW, I solved addint at the end of rcS:

mount -o bind /media/mmc3/user /home/user

not sure this is the best way, but at least it works! :)

Btw, it's too late right now (3.10 am here) to do more. Tomorrow I'll
try asking to osso-xterm people.

[maemo-developers] busybox, sh and $HOME

2007-02-08 Thread william maddler
Ok, maybe it's me, but this thing is driving me nut!
I have in my /etc/passwd:

user::2:2::/media/mmc3/user:/bin/sh

which is supposed to make /media/mmc3/user the home for user. And unless
I'me a complete demented, that should be ok.

Now, if I ssh from outside and do

echo $HOME

I get the correct response: /media/mmc3/user

but if I try from inside Xterm on  N800 the result is...

/home/user

!!!

Am I wrong, is it normal?!

DOH!

I had apt-worker working  and hitting CPU for about 60 seconds a
couple time, but IIRC I had red-pill mode enabled.

No way, just reflashed and nothing changed. CPU goes down as soon as I
assign a static IP to N800.

>From what I discovered the udhcpc.script is being called in what looks

Not sure it can be significant, AP is a Linksys WRT54GL running dd-wrt
v.23 SP1.

Just tell me if you need more/other informations.

That would be a solution for Canola (beside that means to write a new
application as well, instead of using browser), but the problem would
still exist for other applications/needings. IMHO

Yep, the point is that looks like Dummy is not accepted as connection
type. So you are supposed to enable wi-fi if you wish to connect to
127.0.0.1.

I know, and as I said already could not be usable in some environments
wher you are not allowed to have wi-fi (beside you can ifconfig down
your wlan0).

But as of now, I cant't find a better way to have my
browser/talk/whatever whork while on usb network.

Maybe having "development" and "external contribution" lists could help
keeping whish-lists and brainstorming apart from real development,
considerably reducing the nois for developers. IMHO

A maemo-mantainers could also help.

[maemo-developers] high CPU consuption caused by udhcp

2007-01-31 Thread william maddler
I've noticed udhcp is firing up *multiple* (it's actually and endless
loop) instances of udhcpc.script, which contains dbus references. As a
result CPU usage increases to about 100%.

Of course that happens only if dymanic IP is configured. I only tried
with wlan connections.

To exclude other causes I checked that on a clean N800, just flashed
with latest available image.

Did someone else experienced same/similar problem?

[maemo-developers] apply gconf settings using data in /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/* ?

2007-01-30 Thread william maddler
Hello,
I was playing/messing around with gconftool and did a not-so-smart move,
overwriting one of the default values (namely display blank timeout
values). I found they are stored in
/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/osso/dsm/display/%gconf.xml

Is there a way to apply them without having to reflash?

Thank you.

That would jave been nice to have aut-connect disabled if manually
disconnected fro wi-fi. Or at least a quick way to turn off autoconnect
without having to dig to control panel/connection settings.

Re: [maemo-developers] /usr/bin/metalayer-crawler eats my CPU

2007-01-27 Thread william maddler
Yes, but my question is: is it really ok to have the whola filesystem
being indexed? That could be fine with the default 128MB card. But with
4GB and (maybe) 8GB arriving?
Being able to see which directories need to be monitored would be ok. I
mean, I'm never going to put my media files in /etc or /usr and so on.
Having only /home/user/MyDocs indexed would be enough IMHO.

Watch at bug #978 there is an alternative start/stop script which make
the crawler only look in "media" folders. Not definitive solution but
better than completely stopping the daemon and causing Media player not
to work.
