OM 2008.08 not ringing on incoming call

2008-09-08 Thread Michael Zanetti
Hi,

I have installed om-2008.8-update. In the settings dialog the profile Ring and 
Vibrate is selected. On incoming calls the Neo vibrates, but there is no 
ringtone most of the times. Sometimes (maybe one try out of ten), if I wait 
long enough I can here one ring just before the timeout until my mailbox 
anwers the call is reached. It seems that it just takes too long until the 
ringtone is activated.

Does anyone have an idea what I could do to make my neo ring on an incoming 
call?

Thanks,
Michael

RE: Software package

2008-09-08 Thread David Samblas
you can copy an existing one, 

#cd /usr/share/applications
#cp  pyefl-sudoku.desktop whateveryouwant.desktop

and now with you prefered text editor I use joe to install it, just 
#opkg install joe
or you can use already installed vi

#joe whateveryouwant.desktop
You will see something like this

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Sudoku
TryExec=sudoku_ui.py
GenericName=pyefl-sudoku
Comment=Sudoku game
StartupNotify=false
Exec=sudoku_ui.py
Icon=pyefl-sudoku
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Applications;Game;ENLIGHTENMENT;

modify Name,GenericName to Handwriting for example,  Comment to X11
handwritting recognition, TryExec and Exec with the executable name (you
dont have specified it in you mail so if you don't know how to retrieve
it please read below)
you can also change the icon (a 48x48 pixels png file will fit, you can
easy, create/adapt one with gimp), and change to a more fitting
categories as Applications;Utilities;keyboards;input 
 
To know the name of the binary to execute doing a
#opkg files name of the pakage|grep bin 

it will list what files it probides and the grep will filter those
installed in defaults executables directories, surely one of those files
will be the one you  need.

By the way, can you especify where did you download, read, and know
about this handwritting stuff?? I have no idea.

for the rotate screen stuff look in
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Gestures or if you want something more
simplier look at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Rotate

Hi Ed,

as ext2 is a subset of ext3 it is also mountable as ext2 (but then without
journalling). It is required that the Filesystem was clean unmounted before
to do that.

 after you install XTerm package, do you see a desktop file

Yes, I installed this from the UI.
No, I don't actually see xterm.desktop in the folder you described.

 Stephan, as far as I know if you are usin a brand new OM2008.8 the gsm
 antenas by default is on.
 
 Sems more a incompatibility with you sim than to power up the gsm,
 nevertheless to make sure if the gsm is on or in a terminal do 
 # cat /sys/devices/platform/neo1973-pm-gsm.0/power_on 
 and if it returns 1 is on, O is off

A few problems I've been having ... suggestions?

2008-09-08 Thread Gothnet

Hiya,

I've got a Freerunner and have figured out my way around flashing it and
trying out a bunch of things. A week or so ago I left my old mobile in a
hire car in another country (good move, I know) so the GTA02 has become my
main mobile. Both the update process and trying to use it day to day have
made me hit a few problems -

1. Couldn't update NOR uboot
Not a big problem, but after (roughly) following the process here -
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-kernel/2008-January/000708.html

I got as far as booting into 2008.08 and running:
flash_unlock /dev/mtd0
flash_eraseall /dev/mtd0
cat u-boot.udfu /dev/mtd0

before the Freerunner went to suspend (I didn't know about xset :0 s off at
that point). On every subsequent try the eraseall and cat stage fail. Not
that it matters as I have updated the NAND uboot.

2. Debian/FSO stopped associating with T-Mobile after a while
No idea why, but after a few boots zhone just stopped picking up a signal.
So I went back to 2008.08

3. 2008.08 sound problems.
It seems to either vary by day or by boot or by some other random factor.
Even after opkg update and upgrade last week (friday?) it either echoes the
remote party's speech right back to them, or my speech to me, or works
perfectly. Weird.

4. Qtopia addressbook on 2008.08 - Is there any way to do a mass delete?
I screwed up the vcf file I'm importing several times. The first couple of
times I manually deleted 50+ contacts one at a time, is there a
faster/better way to do this as deleting them all manually kinda sucks?

5. Charging overnight seems to kill it
I leave the phone attached to the mains charger overnight, as otherwise it
would likely run out of batteries. Unfortunately, by morning it's pretty
dead, won't come back from suspend and hasn't sounded the alarm I set. To
reboot I need to remove the battery and start it up again. This done, the
alarm goes off. Useful :)

7. Gotta answer calls quickly
If I don't pick up pretty fast I think the phone goes back to suspend or
something, but displays a couple of buttons at the bottom of the screen
saying yes and no. these buttons don't respond and nothing much else
seems to make it wake up again either. Battery out, start again...

Other than that it's pretty cool. I like having a phone I can ssh into. I
haven't yet started playing with the advanced functionality (GPRS,
WLAN)...

I like the 2008.08 keyboard, it's finger friendly and the predictive text is
helpful, mostly. Are there ways to teach it extra words and/or switch it off
though?

Thanks for your help/suggestions,

David. 

(Apologies if this shows up twice, it shouldn't as I wasn't subscribed first
time I posted)

Problem with upgrading opkg

2008-09-08 Thread malte
Hello

I have a problem upgrading opkg, the installed version is

0.1.4+svnr4562-r0

which is known to be buggy: https://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1695

my feeds point to http://shr.bearstech.com/fso-testing/.. (all of them)
installed image: fso milestone 2, without upgrades

what i do:

# opkg update

works ok, looking into /var/lib/opkg/fso-armv4t says:

as expected

# opkg install opkg

and start to try to teach neo freerunner the different movement lika shake, 
nothing happens. Ive followed the guide on the wiki page but it doesn't react

Intermittant bluetooth keyboard

2008-09-08 Thread Daniel Benoy
I set up my bluetooth keyboard on my openmoko phone using the 'new' (In other 
words, not hidd, but still dbus) input interface, and it only works like 10% of 
the time.  That means when I turn it on it should connect and start working.  
Unfortunately, it only works about 25% of the time, and I have to switch it off 
and on frequenly in order to get it to finally connect.  I get this output from 
hcidump -V when it doesn't work:

 HCI Event: Connect Request (0x04) plen 10
bdaddr 00:0A:DF:00:24:59 class 0x002540 type ACL
 HCI Command: Accept Connection Request (0x01|0x0009) plen 7

 HCI Event: Connect Complete (0x03) plen 11
status 0x22 handle 42 bdaddr 00:0A:DF:00:24:59 type ACL encrypt 0x00
Error: LMP Response Timeout

The difference in time between 'Accept Connection Request' and 'LMP Response 
Timeout' is about 3 seconds.  I was under the impression that LMP negociation 
was supposed to time out after 30 seconds?

Is there something I'm doing wrong?  Am I not interprating this correctly?

If it does work I get something like this:

 HCI Event: Connect Request (0x04) plen 10
bdaddr 00:0A:DF:00:24:59 class 0x002540 type ACL
 HCI Command: Accept Connection Request (0x01|0x0009) plen 7

 HCI Event: Link Key Request (0x17) plen 6

.
.
.

(And then link key request reply and so on it does its negociation and there 
you have it)

 the scripts to automatically load the alsamixers.
 
 Could someone at OM add python-pyalsaaudio to the feeds ?
 

Can you point to the source of python-pyalsaaudio? Also explain what it does?

 This is good work, thanks.

 It seems the BtHeadset.py will run indefinitely in an infinite loop at the
 end.

 I suspect it needs to listen on a signal and exit when the call is over.

 Using mixed case file names when trying to type on an itty bitty keyboard
 in terminal makes stuff hard ;)

 Please let us know when you get the Mike working.

There are some suggested changes to the alsa state file in another post of 
mine in this thread. I don't have a bluetooth headset so I can't test them, 
and Angus is busy improving his scripts. If you've got things working so far 
then it would be great if you could test those changes too.

Its hard to test as I don't keep my SIM card in the FR as I can't use it as a 
phone yet. Next time I 
do put the sim card in, I'll test this out, but I haven't tried any of it yet 
since I spent so much 
time working on it before with no luck at all, and randomly setting alsa 
settings to see what 
happened was getting really tedious ;)

As an aside I was wondering if the old Neo Mode setting in the alsa control 
files for GTA01 was 
doing what the pcm_bluetooth file is now doing? If someone had the old gta01 
code it would be worth 
taking a look to see if it was doing that and what else it did.

I've looked at the scripts. They're pretty inventive.

Once we have something that is reproducible, we should replace the
.asoundrc parsing and the alsa calls. What the script does currently
is parse .asoundrc to figure out what bluetooth device to use, then it
opens the alsa device so pcm_bluetooth will talk to the audio service
to negotiate the connection and set up the sco channel. It's sneaky
because pcm_bluetooth also thinks it's responsible for the audio
stream but it's being bypassed completely.

It should be possible, even in this version of bluez, to use dbus
calls into bluez to get the device and to open the channel. You'll
probably want to keep the script running for the duration of the call.

How much of this will work for my neo1973? I hesitate since I don't
know which of the os forks I should use and if mokomakefile etc
applies any more.

I've updated the scripts and the mic is working now. It's still a little
noisy but that is just tuning.

Re: microSD slot fried?

2008-09-08 Thread Daniel Benoy
I believe that command is telling the SD reader to keep its clock on, even 
when idle.  The ability to turn off the idle clock was implemented to prevent 
GPS interference.  Perhaps the fact you have a capasitor on your SD connector 
has something to do with this.  Mutually exclucive fixes in hardware and 
software, perhaps?

I believe you can also pass a parameter on the u-boot kernel command line that 
will set this value to 1 for you.  I don't know it off hand, so that there's 
less danger of your partition table being corrupted again.

 after some fiddling with the procedures etc. I did get

 echo 1  /sys/module/glamo_mci/parameters/sd_idleclk


 fix even after reboot my card is recognized. Does that
 mean that those parameters are written into ROM ? Does
 it also mean that my GPS functionality is affected as
 I recall that was the fix for slow fix times on GPS.

 So in my case I wanted to have QTopia on microSD as it
 doesn't support GPS anyway and run OM2008.8 natively
 to use GPS. Do I have to extract microSD card every
 time to use GPS or should I script into OM2008.8 to:

 echo 0  /sys/module/glamo_mci/parameters/sd_idleclk

 on startup and

 echo 1  /sys/module/glamo_mci/parameters/sd_idleclk

 on shutdown ?

 Hi Ed,

 as ext2 is a subset of ext3 it is also mountable as ext2 (but then without
 journalling). It is required that the Filesystem was clean unmounted before
 to do that.

Hi Bernhard,
Wow - but earlier posts (in this very thread, I think) implied that
this was not possible - to boot from an ext3 partition by treating it
as ext2...
Well, I did my sdcard partition as ext2, but I think I need to read up
about ext3/ext2 to understand what you have said. Thanks for the info!

a) The first three errors routinely appear during boot on my FR (IIRC,
whether 2007.2 or Qtopia is booting makes no difference)

b) Did the phone suspend and resume during the previous session? It
may have corrupted the SDcard filesystem... this is just a guess. See

I've seen that a libmokoui exists, which should allow screen-scrolling -
this is the C-library. Also, there has been some python binding around,
according to my research; but where is the package for it ? I cant find it

Check if the campus APs are supporting 802.11G connections.  The Atheros
