Re: [ANN] Simple Launcher -- Home applet to launch your apps
Hi, Misha and all, For configuration purposes, I would suggest a graphic directory browser component which would allow the user to navigate from the desktop to the executable and thus build up the path string. Then, use the path string to create a link to the app, which could be activated by a speed-button on your launcher. Alternatively, a button on your launcher could just be programmed with the xterm command sequence required to launch the app and the xterm output piped to a desktop window opened for the purpose of running the app from and on the desktop. The purpose of such an extension to your app launcher is to provide a GUI front-end for bringing all those xterm command-shell apps to the desktop.

Re: Q: connecting to non-broadcast wifi?
Hi, Kalle and all, Deleting other IAP's as I have already found out doesn't explicitly select the remaining IAP as default. That remains to be done by the user. How this is done remains unknown as does how Nokia engineers envisaged DHCP-based IP address assignment via WLAN IAP connections. I wonder whether there is a status flag to set for an already detected WLAN IAP which would designate it as the one to connect to by default. In the negotiation of a newly-found IAP, some revision-invariant bug in ITOS 2005/2006 and all their respective sub-versions causes the DHCP cycle to time out. The DHCP would require some inquiry on the part of ITOS to get a newly-assigned IP address and, hence, a default IAP does not imply avoiding the DHCP cycle, where a useful (external) IP address is not assigned. So, a default IAP might not solve the DHCP time-out problem, but there may be more to being a default IAP than just what I have described, and among these additional implications of the default IAP designation might be something that enables viable IP address assignment by DHCP to Nokia 770 running the ITOS 2006.

Are there bricking scenarios in this reboot situation which involve corruption beyond MMC reboot? I'm not sure what you mean by this (and was not answered already). Let's explain how device boots: 1. bootloader (probably at least two of them, one loads another) initializes some hardware, checks if flasher is connected and finally loads linux kernel from /dev/mtd2. Some small bootloader is stored either in masked ROM or NOR flash directly on OMAP chip, the second one is stored in (NAND) flash - /dev/mtd0 2. linux kernel starts, initializes hardware and runs linuxrc from initfs partition (/dev/mtd3) 3. initfs (uclibc based system) starts dsme and bme, loads wlan and bt firmware, checks root device name stored in flash (=config partition /dev/mtd1)mounts it and continues boot from that device (via pivot_root [1]). This is where bootmenu modification lives too, it simply allows you to select different root device then stored by flasher. 4. /sbin/init starts from the root device and normal linux system boots via rc scripts This means that if bootloader (/dev/mtd0) or kernel (/dev/mtd2) is corrupted or maybe even config partition (bootloader probably uses it too to store some data - MAC address? list of bad flash blocks? partition layout?) then the device is 'bricked' and bootmenu cannot help since it has no chance to run. Only reflash over usb (or serial) can help. But normal bricking done by most users and mentioned in previous mail means corrupting rootfs (/dev/mtd4) and this can be solved by booting from anything else (=mmc) via bootmenu. Any chance of hard-disk based ITOS for Nokia Internet Tablet's. Harddisk would not solve anything. Same like when you corrupt your bios on PC. but it would allow rebooting in various modes and under various privledge schemes without the threat of irreparable bricking. Harddisk is not any better than mmc, both are lock devices used by linux kernel.

Boot from mmc can help you only when the problem is in rootfs partition i.e. (a bit simplistic explanation) when booting the device blue progressbar on the bottom starts. I'm not sure what you mean by 'bricking flash' but any device reflash with full firmware image removes modified initfs with boot menu and then you cannot boot from mmc at all (without reflashing modified initfs back). But this is not big problem because booting from mmc allows you to stop fixing problems with your device by reflashing. Instead of reflashing you can boot clean system and either mount broken system and fix it (if you know how) or save data from it and clone your clean system to mmc and start again. Are there bricking scenarios from which it is not possible to recover via booting from MMC? Definitely yes but most things that can normally go wrong happen in rootfs.

Something work mentioning to the person trying to get the keyboard working is that some USB devices are very sensitive about the voltage it needs to be pretty much dead on 5v under load. We use a maplin regulated camera charger (about £10 believe it or not) for the 770 and it has enough to power the 770 and all the various USB bits we use (network, serial, hub and custom circuit board). Note: if anyone makes a charger for the Nokia powering from the powered hub, you should be aware the nokia tuns off its charging circuits if the voltage is too low or too high also. It also charges in a weird way that causes voltage ripple and pull back that may effect other USB devices (consider adding diodes and capacitors, to prevent nokia effecting other USB devices power). Still it is pretty clever and stops charging when the battery is full. I'll mess with the 800 when I have a bit more time in a week or so and see what I can get to work if no one beats me to it.

[maemo-users] USB Host Power injectors as retrofit USB phone chargers driven to run in reverse
Hi, all On the question of power injector implementation to enable host mode USB OTG on the Nokia 770, has anyone tried running a USB phone charger for phones that weren't designed to be charged by USB out-of-the-box (OTB <.|,>) and plugging in a 9V battery in a casing with a stereo mini-plug port or smaller and the USB end into a USB hub then the hub via a USB A/MtoUSB-mini converter into the Nokia 770 mini USB port. The hub should give a number of free USB A/F ports for plugging in devices minus whatever splicing arrangement one prefers for connecting the charger-turn-injector into the hub. I suspect one would have to chose a hub that allows (against pre-USB-OTG specs) to feed additional power to the host to support host mode functionality. Power adapters in pre-OTG specs are supposed only to feed power to higher-demand devices, not to their host. Also, it would be nice not to be tied to an external wall plug, hence the battery in some web-posted designs makes sense. Another thing to charge, but what's new. Edison won out in devices, Tesla in efficient long-distance power distribution. Home is where you charge your batteries all the OTG devices of your e-life: get one, it's really fun.

Are you from US? Because most people around me (and I guess generally in Europe) buy their phones themselves and not from mobile operator. Operators offer phones too, yes, but they are generally overpriced, outdated and the choice is limited. Maybe companies use this but for average person it does not make sense. Phones and cellular operators are different things. Or do you buy TV from your cable/TV operator? Also majority of people here (70%) use prepaid cards without contract and even have more such cards from different operators and swap them in one phone. Maybe mobile market is more competitive in Europe (or in my country)? I remember phones bought from operators were blocked in firmware to prevent using with other cellular networks but this is history too (maybe noone bought such phones?). So to sum it up I don't think such artifical market exist here or is too important and manufacturers can produce crappy phones because of this. Frantisek As far as I know, here, in France, most of the phones are sold by operators with contracts. Well, I guess the N770, since it can't be sold with contracts, doesn't fit their needs.

[maemo-users] N770 Wifi subsystem, drivers and applets
Hi all, After finally flashing my N770 with the latest revision of ITOS 2006, I was able to connect to my Linksys WIFI internet router with the same touch-and-go reliability I had experienced with ITOS 2005, which is much better than the no connectivity at all I experienced with the first ITOS 2006 that became available. That said, could someone point me to documents describing the WIFI hardware subsystem of the N770 and the driver support for it built into the current revision of ITOS 2006, because it seems that the WIFI circuits need quite some time after power up and initial program load to start accepting DCHP IP addresses from every open (not password protected) WIFI internet router with which I have used my N770. I wonder what is causing this long delay in accepting dynamically-assigned IP addresses without responding with local loop-back IP addresses instead. In other words, would this happen if I were using a USB WIFI dongle with suitable drivers written for and installed in ITOS 2006 as kernel modules? Another related question is why isn't one wifi connection always on and spawned when ITOS 2006 loads in such a way that all programs requiring internet access can detect this open connection and use it?"

Hi, all I was able to connect to the internet via my Linksys WIFI LAN router while using Internet Tablet OS (ITOS)2005 (albeit not always) and able to listen to the radio, update RSS news feeds, download my e-mail, and surf the web. With the update to ITOS 2006, I get a ? over the WIFI connection after it stops flashing with the accompanying message: "Connecting to Linksys via local IP address". This connection is not usable, although the signal strength of the connection is full. What can one do about this? My cellular connection via bluetooth to my GSM phone works flawlessly every time even in ITOS 2006 for all the above-mentioned services, although such a connection misses the point of the broad band internet tablet.

[maemo-users] Switching the 770 to USB host mode using Sudo Root
Hi, Is there a way to use sudo root access to switch Nokia 770 to USB host mode. Otherwise, is there a way of using a Windows flasher to do it instead of working with Debian or Ubuntu Dapple? And is there a recovery procedure that's known to work if the 770 freezes in the process of switching to USB host mode? Thanks in adavance, Paule ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
