[maemo-users] Re: Problem mounting ext2 partition at startup

2007-01-31 Thread sebastian maemo

Ok. I've got it. I've added these two lines to /etc/init.d/minircS, just
before mount_devpts:
insmod /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/current/ext2.ko
mount /media/mmc2

:)

2007/2/1, sebastian maemo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


Hi, folks.

I've created an ext2 partition on my RS-MMC and would like it to be
mounted automagically at startup.

I've tried by adding this feature to /etc/init.d/minircS but without
success. Maybe because I don't know exactly what I'm doing. I know I must
load the ext2 module kernel before it tries to mount the partition but don't
know where to put this line:
# insmod /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/current/ext2.ko

I've also modified /etc/fstab.

I may mount the partition manually, of course. But I want it to be mounted
at startup. The process I've followed is described at:

I had a ThinkOutside keyboard - to do numbers you pressed the blue FN 
key and the number, to do the shift of the numbers (e.g. $) you pressed 
the green FN key.

My ThinkOutside died - the two halves of the keyboard are connected with 
a piece of cheap flex PC board (actually the whole keyboard is one big 
piece of flex), and opening and closing the keyboard broke that flex - 
and once that happened it was game over. As a result I would NOT 
recommend the Stowaway.

I was kind of surprised that there was nothing like that included. As
it is a v4l device, it should be relatively simple for one to get

That would be unfortunate - one of the things I'd like to port is GMFSK, 
which is a program for doing data over HF radio, and ideally I would 
want to use an external USB sound card to talk to the radio. No host 
mode = no way to feed external audio in (you cannot use Bluetooth audio 
as the compression required would make it impossible to recover the data.)

Alternatively, as I recently learned, just have something already running
from the SD card or cards you want to keep mounted. Your device will
complain that it can't unmount them, and leave them be.

Simply charging by USB does not count as an active USB connection.
You can charge without unmounting the device.

With some creative software you could also remove the need to have
only one side using the MMC card. Doing that would probably require
exporting the card vs NFS instead of as a USB block device. Plugging
in the USB cable could automatically trigger loading/unloading the USB
networking module and start the in-kernel NFS server.

Another way would be to add a simple UI that pops up when an active
USB host is connected. It would just ask if you wanted the MMC
exported over USB and give you a chance to say no.

Load the USB gadget driver and it will advertise OTG support.

include the bits necessary to enable USB host mode so there is some

with my k800i i can do both charging and/or transfer at the same time

When you plug the USB cable, the Nokia tablets unmount the MMC card so
that it could be exported via USB as a block device.

It would be *very* annoying if I couldn't play mp3s from the MMC card
while the tablet was being charged.

What do you use on 770: opera or minimo? I've tried built in opera and it
must be set with swap enabled to work in a real time. Some sites ask to
be seen in full graphic, for whatever reason.

I use Opera on the 770 and N800, mainly because Minimo is so far from being 
finished.

While Minimo works great with many sites, and is actually better on some sites than 
Opera, Minimo is nowhere near a finished product and is not usable as a 
"production" quality browser.

With the December announcement by the main (only?) Minimo core developer it's 
now likely that Minimo will never be completed, which is a great shame.

[maemo-users] [telepathy] disconnect after sending message

2007-01-31 Thread booiiing

Hi *,

i experience disconnects in telepathy every time i send a line to
someone. sometimes only the sending account is affected and
reconnected within seconds, sometimes all accounts are disconnected
and i need to set them to online manually.

i have configured four regular jabber-accounts, my google-talk-account
and the nokia video invitation beta.

apart from the video-account, the same accounts work fine in gajim on
my pc and in telepathy and  on my 770.

did i miss something or is this a bug?

kind regards,

When you plug the USB cable, the Nokia tablets unmount the MMC card so
that it could be exported via USB as a block device.

It would be *very* annoying if I couldn't play mp3s from the MMC card
while the tablet was being charged.

[maemo-users] International character support

2007-01-31 Thread Daniel Daley

Hello all,

I'm new to the list so I apologize if this is not the correct list  
for a question of this nature. I was wondering if anyone knows if it  
is possible to view international character sets, particularly Shift- 
JIS, on the web browser of the n800. I've went through the menus and  
see it's not listed in the encodings dialog. I also downloaded the  
minimo browser hoping it might have support but no luck. Is there a  
way I can add this somehow?


Thanks!

I have not used the Nokia...

The Think Outside has some quirks like pressing multiple function keys
to get different button actions, but you get used to it.  You can
program some "macro-like" functions in the keyboard control panel so a
combo on the keyboard brings up the apps screen for example.

I find I really only use it in the Terminal or if I have a long email
to type.  There's a very slight delay in typing and what you see on
screen, but once you get the feel it's quite smooth.  Great for longer
emails far quicker than the on-screen keyboard - though I am
getting quite good with my thumbs now as well.

They should have also made the N770/800 chargeable from the USB port.
That way you can avoid carrying a charger around and charge it from

There is no power supplied to the USB port. The only way to make it
work is to plug a powered hub into the port and then plug the keyboard
into the hub.

I consider this a significant design flaw in the N800/770. It would
really be nice if there was a small amount of power supplied to the
USB port, just enough to run a keyboard or memory stick. Less than
100ma at 5V. Sure it will draw the batteries down but that is the
price you pay. If you have the N800/770 on wall power the USB port
should supply power all of the time.

No power is also tied up in implementing the kernel USB OTG driver for
the device. The spec says you can't advertise OTG support if the port
has no power.

[maemo-users] Wired keyboard and N800

2007-01-31 Thread Luca Donaggio

Does anybody tried to use a USB keyboard (attached to a modified USB hub for
power injection, of course) with the N800 in USB host mode?
It doesn't work for me, keybord led doesn't even light up!

same - pairing was the tricky part but if bluetooth is active (ahem)
and I open the keyboard, it automatically connects and I am good to
go.  Worked on my 770 as well with the bluetooth plugin installed.

Press ctrl+leftFN+rightFn to make the keyboard visible (the green led

the keyboard when appears. The wizard shows a 4 digit key. Press "Ok"
and then type the key with the leftFn pressed. Finally, press Enter

What do you use on 770: opera or minimo? I've tried built in opera and it
must be set with swap enabled to work in a real time. Some sites ask to

Re: [maemo-users] [maemo-announce] New OS 2006 firmware released

2007-01-31 Thread Ville Reijonen



Also, on a mobile device, it's much more likely that the battery runs
out, or drops out (if user is a bit thoughtless). If this happens when
you're running dist-upgrade, you've bricked your device.


Well, not really.. you can still flash it. Or reboot from memory card
and continue thru chroot or.. Also before such update the battery level
could be verified. If the updates come out 2-3 times a year, the update
could be done from memorycard so all the prelinked files would be
updated. Also niced prelink afterwards could take care of the rest, 
thus prelinking also user installed software. (is it done now?)


I understand there is much more probable that the update doesn't run 
smoothly when people have had time to f**k up the system more or less 
freely. This creates many possibilities that the base system just 
doesn't run after update like it should do. Flashing is easy way to 
bypass this problem thus causing other inconviniences


But what comes to developers and consumers wanting convinience.. I have
to say reinstalling all the software is way too time consuming even when
automated. Of course when API's change and versions jump like 2.1 to 3.0
you just need to reinstall everything but when changes are smaller
"apt-get upgrade" should do the trick. I think installing the base
system from debs would take less time than installing all the programs I 
currently have installed.



Except maybe for the time taken to do backup & restore, re-flashing
the device is both faster and easier than dist-upgrade.  The backup &
restore could be improved somewhat, especially in regards to application
installer though.  Automatic restoring of packages after reflashing
could be risky though.


I have made small scripts for these nasty reflashing situations. If
there is intrest I could clean up the scripts and release. I think there
might be.. maybe I'll clean them anyways. Scripts aren't be anything
nice and smooth they just "works for me".

The way it works is that I first run normal backup, then backup /home
and /etc/apt/ and finally run "dpkg --get-selections > selections.txt"
to get package states and move all of this to the memorycard. I also
have saved all manually downloaded packages on the memorycard.

After reflash I return the stuff with small automated script run when I
install an deb from memorycard. I have maemo-launcher kept back so
running "dpkg --set-selections < selections.txt; apt-get update; apt-get
upgrade" goes more or less smoothly if there isn't too many packages to
install (space runs out). Only those dialogs asking for location in the
menu stop the automation. Manually installed packages I have installed
rather ugly way "dpkg -i *deb; apt-get -f install" (latter is to solve
dependencies with libraries). Actual list of user installed programs is 
solvable (exclude base system and user installed dependencies)



If (when?) repositories would be just one central repository then after 
flash and restore of backup the repository url could just be changed: 
"deb http://repository.maemo.org/ 3.2" would change to "deb 
http://repository.maemo.org/ 3.3". And by running the list of software 
installed before thru apt-get we would have updated system running.


Now with the central repository all the existing programs could be 
compiled in the darkness for the new system/OS. And when ever the always 
mysterious corporation would release, there would be programs waiting 
unlike now with the 770 to n800 change or earlier API updates.

Just to clarify, we expect (and encourage) users to install 3rd party
software. See the Maemo effort and the progress being done making easier
to end-users to find applications and install them. 

Upgrading is a known problem, yes. The perfect solution is to be
implemented yet. Upgrading via packages and repositories is not exempt
of trouble and risks for end-users either, as other .deb based
developers know. 

Nokia Internet Tablets come with a warranty that goes far beyond the
warranties Debian or Ubuntu distributions offer to their users. Only
this small detail changes completely our picture. Then you can go
through other details about user experience and technical aspects.

PS: I'm not saying option A or B is better, I'm just trying to stress
why things aren't as simple as they might look from your perspective.

...one can make sure that "apt-get dist-upgrade" and similar tasks stop
or complain if the device is running on battery. This would enforce
major package changes to users with chargers plugged into the device.

I still believe that incremental upgrades to the system are the way to
go. With a flash image ready just in case the upgrades go wrong or the
user wants to make a fresh start.

I disagree that Debian is a developer or "linux user only" distribution.
My company uses it for production work since five years. But that's a
matter of taste, I guess.

However, Ubuntu is a consumer distribution based on Debian's package
management. It works quite nicely, /is/ consumer-friendly and you can
update its packages and major distribution releases incrementally,
withouth having to "reflash" / reinstall the OS for each major update of
the base distribution.

Re: [maemo-users] [maemo-announce] New OS 2006 firmware released

2007-01-31 Thread Wahlau -

hi,

why not implement something like having the post-installed softwares
on the MMC (yes, i am aware of the speed issue) so that we can just
flash the what-so-ever firmware updates, and still be able to use
directly the installed software straight with little tweaking (perhaps
updates for these software are needed).

the issue is not about flashing the firmware for me, but the
reinstallation of *all* softwares all over again. From nokia consumer
product point of view, perhaps this is not their issues, since they
expect users to just buy the tablet and use without 3rd party
software. But i would assume otherwise, where users will automatically
have some 3rd party softwares, and they will hate reinstalling them
over and over again everytime after a (re)flash.

regards,
wahlau

How about in the backup storing a list of apps that were installed
from repositories and the repository list, then post flash offer to
reinstall some/all of the apps from the repositories - less likely to
break and less space needed for backup.  (I assume there is some way
apps can have their settings stored/restored in the backup by saving

Hi,

ext Gavin O' Gorman wrote:

On 1/30/07, Karl Bellve <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Personally, I wish Nokia would have went with thunderbird and firefox
that could be improved by the outside community. Instead, they went with
buggy pieces of proprietary code that Nokia can't seem to fix on its own.

My other big complaint is that the entire device has to be reflashed in
order to run the new version of the OS. Why can't they update different
pieces, like the browser, or the kernel? Since the browser and flash
player hasn't been updated, I don't think I will update my Nokia 770.


I think some of the reasons are:
- Licence restrictions
- Hardware changes between the devices and dependencies on these
- API changes between the different releases (sometimes just reflecting
  the different hardware, sometimes for other reasons). You can read
  more on this from here:
  http://maemo.org/maemowiki/Os2007On770
- Supporting mixing and matching of different package versions
  would explode the (already very large) required testing effort.
  - If you really want to upgrade (a small subset of the components) to
the very latest versions, you can do that using the development etc
repositories (sardine/herring/bora etc). However, this is not
supported for obvious reasons and you *will* need to reflash your
device occasionally *when* (not if) things break

These things will improve with time as both Open Source components
and Maemo platform mature and the gap between them can diminish.



I agree wholeheartedly with these points ! I would extend them further
to ask why the 770 OS cannot be as open as a standard debian
distribution.


(assuming you still refer to package updates)

Debian is not a "consumer" distribution, it's a "developer"
/ "Linux user" distribution.

Debian way would mean users doing largest part of testing, finding and
reporting the bugs instead of Nokia, right?  You know, these devices
are  not viable if they remain hacker devices, they're supposed to be
consumer device and consumers are not interested in testing things,
they want things to work when they buy a device.  More on package
updates as a general strategy below...



That is, comprised of a standard kernel that gets the device up and
running, with proprietary drivers available as binary .debs. All the
various applications distributed and installable as seperate .debs.
This way unwanted applications can be removed, for example, the
ridiculous email client etc. Kernels should be upgradable with a
simple apt-get, the package management mess should be cleaned up and
fixed.


I'm not saying this would be impossible, but there are still a lot
of unsolved issues in this which are not solved in Open Source.

Note that for performance reasons the binaries & libraries on the
device are prelinked.  This is not automatically done when some
package is updated (would take too long time etc).  I.e. with the
central library package update, your device will get slower + use more
Flash and RAM.

Also, on a mobile device, it's much more likely that the battery runs
out, or drops out (if user is a bit thoughtless). If this happens when
you're running dist-upgrade, you've bricked your device.

On a mobile device it can easily happen that there's not enough free
space to do dist-upgrade.  I haven't tested it, but I don't think
dpkg/apt handle dist-upgrade running out of space.  Once again,
consumer would have bricked her device.

Except maybe for the time taken to do backup & restore, re-flashing
the device is both faster and easier than dist-upgrade.  The backup &
restore could be improved somewhat, especially in regards to application
installer though.  Automatic restoring of packages after reflashing
could be risky though.



The advantage of opensource is in its flexibility and customisation.
Nokia have negated this by imposing a very rigid structure around the
770. That's fine in itself, but don't pitch the device as opensource
and be surprised when people get annoyed with the lack of control they
have over it.

Luckily for me, the one application I use very regularly, the
opensource FBreader, is highly stable. Otherwise I'd get very annoyed
with the device.

BTW, I've also read something about "unions"... What's the best option?

Salut.
Sebas.

Hi,

I've created a new partition on my RSMMC with sfdisk (from the tablet).
I've got two partitions, one formatted as vfat and the other one as ext2.
I've successfully mounted the vfat one. But I haven't been able to mount
the ext2 one.

These results may help to understand:

Thank you, pals. That's very reconforting.

It's not that big a deal, we all make mistakes :-)  If nothing else
it stimulated discussion and peoples' interest in something that has
not been worked much at all.  Mostly a lot of complaining, not too
much action, so it's nice to see people get involved and try new
stuff.
