"Loading" what
I thought of something that would give me a warm fuzzy feeling "Loading Terminal" or "Loading Settings" I happen to be running SHR right now, but I am sure all distros could benefit with this silly thing, namely "Provide name of application being launched" Where would be a good place to suggest this? (diy is an OK answer, but not this month :-) Actually, along the same lines, it would be nice if FR could give a bit of positive feedback sooner than 30 seconds after boot when I see "openmoko" (Note, this is not unique to FR, the motoRAZR also does this, but I have booted the FR more times in a few months than I have booted the RAZR in 3 years.)

Try this entry in /etc/network/interfaces on the FR: auto usb0 iface usb0 inet static address 192.168.0.202 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 gateway 192.168.0.200 # some folks have the next line here enabled # echo "nameserver 192.168.0.200" >/etc/resolv.conf # still others may say: bullshit honey, we need a real nameserver in here and on your desktop PC in the very same file: allow-hotplug usb0 iface usb0 inet static address 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

Re: GTA01 Battery loader problem

I needed a file a knew it was on NAND but in u-boot but I didn't pass the correct mtdparts to the kernel and mountend mtdblock I'm not sure if readonly took the file and unmounted mtdblock, two days latter at a reboot I found I had bricked it. ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Re: [debian] navit
> I couldn't find any either so I built my own with > > http://iki.fi/lindi/openmoko/navit.txt well, at least the conversion to debian structure is an unnecessary step -- the navit page links to two repos holding navit (for x86, though) with diff/dsc/orig.tar.gz. you need to modify the configure call in debian/rules to disable all taht unneeded stuff (wince, floating points), but after that it's pretty straight forward. ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

TangoGPS works great (as long as your clock is correctly set, including timezone) and phone functions work acceptably well. Wifi seems broken in the most recent (Jan29 IIRC) images, hoping that is resolved again soon. "notepad" - there're a handful of simple text editors around, I can't suggest one offhand. I've not yet managed to get navit working with SHR-unstable though, so GPS location and mapping works but maybe not directions. Openvpn works fine, but doesn't cover the same scenarios as vpnc... I've not seen vpnc for the FR yet. So I cross-compiled it a few minutes ago (from svn) and it seems to run on my FR, but I've nothing handy to test it against. If someone wants to do so, I stuffed the config and binaries in a tarball at http://newkirk.us/om/vpnc.tar.gz - it depends on libgcrypt, shouldn't need anything else. The only alterations required were commenting out "CC=gcc" and "./makeman.pl" in the makefile (no man on FR anyway) and "opkg-target install libgcrypt libgcrypt-dev". j -- Joel Newkirk http://jthinks.com (blog) http://newkirk.us/om (FR stuff) ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
