[FSO] Where is python-sqlite?
Hello,
I'm currently trying to install Python support for SQLite on FSO M4.1.
After updating my package list ('opkg update'), I can see
python-sqlite3 available through 'opkg list', but trying to 'opkg
install' it gives me :
r...@om-gta02:~# opkg install python-sqlite3
Installing python-sqlite3 (2.5.2-ml0) to root...
Collected errors:
* ERROR: Package python-sqlite3 (parent python-sqlite3) is not
available from any configured src.
* Failed to download python-sqlite3. Perhaps you need to run 'opkg update'?
Any idea? Thanks.

Re: [FSO] Milestone 5, uBoot and SD, any success?

But I tried something else : Marek Lindner just provided the steps for fixing the image. Here it is: Not sure whether somebody was able to properly fix it or not. We (Chris and me) just ran into this issue and created a "fix" for the mount script. The /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh file in line 24 is the reason for the problem. It complains about a wrong file descriptor here: exec 9>&0 https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
[FSO] Milestone 5, uBoot and SD, any success?
Hello ev'ryone. It's been a while since Freesmartphone's latest milestone (the so-called "milestone 5") is out. However, and as willing as I am to test it, I still didn't manage to get past the "root not remouted read-write as it should" problem. I saw a lot of discussion about how to fix this with Qi. As I'm still too cautious to test Qi yet (after all, this is my main phone we're talking about... testing one piece of potentially unstable software at a time is well enough for me), I'm wondering whether anybody had success with that milestone and the following setup (or something close): - GTA02 - images (.tar.gz and .bin) from the fso-stable tree. - basic uBoot (no update whatsoever since purchase) - and of course, booting on the SD card (once again, I don't want to break every part at once) If, by any chance, somebody succeeded in something similar, would he mind explaining how he did? And if anybody from the FSO team passes by : is there some kind of milestone 5.1 expected (fixing that kind of problem, for instance), or should we wait for milestone 6? Thanks a lot.

Getting Evolution to run on Neo won't be too easy, but it should be reasonnably doable (in a perfect world, it might compile directly on arm... maybe it already does, btw). Then having it running everyday would start to be a pain in some lower parts : Evolution, as nice as it is, needs a _lot_ of resource compared to what a Freerunner can offer. The screen size might be a pain too. Well it's surely possible to run Evolution. Now whether that would be the solution to not12listen's problem or not is another whole debate. And if it were that easy, it'd be done already (Evolution can do much more than Exchange connectivity, and _many_ people would love those too). Our guy asked if he _can_ read Exchange mail's on OM. Not within the year, nor in an unknown future, but _now_. And _now_, he can't. We got too many people disappointed by the Freerunner, we don't need another one. -- Olivier ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

I thought it was based on Exchange's WebDAV access, which is a bit different. Sure it's still tied to web technologies, and needs OWA to be enabled on the server, but it's much more efficient than wrapping around a web interface, and should work well over the internet (you can proxy it through HTTPS frontends or anything, if you want). There was another connector-like-thing named Brutus, who forced MAPI commands through CORBA. But it needed some code at both side (a daemon on the server side, and libbrutus on the device/application). I don't know if it's still active, though. There's also some opensource code regarding ActiveSync "over the air" in Zarafa/ZPush projects. This implements part (only server part, sadly) of Microsoft's protocol for synchronizing devices over HTTP(S) connections, supporting even "idling connections" (branded as "DirectPush") to avoid constant polling. Maybe someone can "guess" the client part of the protocol by looking at ZPush. It's PHP code, so if anyone is brave enough ;) Another way, which sounds much more practical for desktop than embedded use, is the wonderful work of OpenChange's guys : namely a bunch of code to emulate several parts of the Exchange architecture within an AD/Samba4 environment. Though it should be pretty effective in a LAN, I guess it would need some heavy tweaks to be used over the internet. Any other ideas? -- Olivier ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

There's ways that could eventually lead to an exchange-compatible openmoko, but none of them are usable yet nor anybody expressed interest in exploring them. Don't wait for OM to support Exchange, if you really need a directpush-compatible phone, for for Windows Mobile. Sad, but true. -- Olivier ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
