That should get me headed in the right direction. :) Jul 04 04:12:48 np Jul 04 08:10:39 onen|openBmap: In case you need to upgrade again and it segfaults - while read package; do opkg upgrade "$package"; done < <(opkg list_upgradable | awk '{print $1}') Jul 04 08:12:20 azaghal: thanks! Jul 04 08:12:29 It'll upgrade packages one by one. Jul 04 08:12:38 * onen|openBmap feels like stupid not having done this by himself Jul 04 08:13:29 Hm...

Read the wiki for detailed instructions.

Jul 04 11:58:35 LOL Jul 04 11:58:53 its looks like iphone but not iphone firmware Jul 04 11:58:56 ian202: just read the wiki it has all the information you need. Jul 04 11:59:09 ian202: a) you're hard to understand b) you say nonsense c) IMO FR isn't for you Jul 04 11:59:17 dos1++ Jul 04 11:59:21 to be true i am not able to understand Jul 04 11:59:47 Communication breakdown, it's always the same Jul 04 11:59:48 i can understand that Jul 04 11:59:57 but i am trying to learn Jul 04 12:00:10 You have a freerunner phone? Or are you trying to install onto something else? Jul 04 12:00:31 is it possible to flash the openmoko through memory card Jul 04 12:00:42 i have only few icon in my phone Jul 04 12:01:15 ian202: i've already told you yes, it's possible. Jul 04 12:01:21 contect, dailer, maps, setting,massage, soduku nothing else Jul 04 12:01:24 ian202: you need a uSD you can boot from Jul 04 12:01:38 ian202: then you do flasherase_all - nandwrite combo Jul 04 12:01:43 it's possible, yes, but it's harder than just flashing by usb Jul 04 12:02:13 i am uesing xp Jul 04 12:02:13 ian202: FR is a small portable GNU/Linux capable computer, you need to think about it that way. Jul 04 12:02:25 ian202: asking again - why can't you just use dfu-util? Jul 04 12:02:32 all needed examples are on wiki Jul 04 12:02:35 just copy-paste... Jul 04 12:02:39 * PaulFertser thought it's common for India inhabitants to understand english properly... Jul 04 12:03:22 let me tell you what i have done Jul 04 12:03:45 its ask me to download dfu-util Jul 04 12:03:50 i have done that Jul 04 12:03:53 ian202: who asks? Jul 04 12:04:18 therefor i have created the mini gw but its not working Jul 04 12:04:35 so finaly i desided to flash uesing memory card Jul 04 12:04:36 Mini gw!

Jul 04 12:07:25 your fault :P Jul 04 12:07:29 it's not for you... Jul 04 12:07:47 I don't think it's really very hidden that it's not a consumer-ready phone. Jul 04 12:08:29 Freerunner != iPhone Jul 04 12:08:33 umm Jul 04 12:08:52 freerunner is smartphone sized GNU/Linux box for developers, geeks and power linux users Jul 04 12:08:55 can anybody tell me that how to do that step by step Jul 04 12:09:12 with ability to make phone calls :P Jul 04 12:09:15 i have def-utili with me Jul 04 12:10:47 Where are you ian202? Jul 04 12:10:57 please help me out in simple words Jul 04 12:11:31 ian202: it's impossible Jul 04 12:11:47 The problem is that even if someone can help you get it flashed - there isn't really much you can do without learning a _LOT_. Jul 04 12:12:03 ian202: it's like an elementary schoolboy asks to help him solve diffirential equations. Jul 04 12:12:04 SpeedEvil: ++ Jul 04 12:12:31 but if someone can help me i can do it Jul 04 12:12:43 i have unbuntu in my notebook Jul 04 12:13:08 it is _NOT_ at the state of ubuntu on notebooks Jul 04 12:13:22 That's almost usable by someone with little knowledge.. Jul 04 12:13:35 please help me Jul 04 12:13:36 Owing to hundreds of man-years of effort. Jul 04 12:13:52 i have spent my week over it and lots of money Jul 04 12:14:09 ian202: have you read the ML before you considered buying it?

Jul 04 12:14:40 ian202: iphone rootfs? Jul 04 12:14:54 yes Jul 04 12:15:50 hahhahahhahahahhahahhahhahahh Jul 04 12:15:50 ian202: well, it doesn't make sense Jul 04 12:16:03 You absolutely can't flash the iphone OS on it. Jul 04 12:16:08 ian202: even if we provided you directions how to do it. Jul 04 12:16:13 SpeedEvil: why? I think he can. Jul 04 12:16:16 (well - without man-years of work.) Jul 04 12:16:28 i have computer with xp a 2gb memory card two files iPhoneOS_rootfs_20090401.jffs2, uImage nd openmoko device Jul 04 12:16:30 ian202: you can flash any junk to device. But it doesn't mean it will run. Jul 04 12:16:32 can't flash the iphone OS on it and have it boot. Jul 04 12:16:48 ian202: Ok - you can't do that. It will never work. Jul 04 12:17:21 For much the same way horses don't work as transport if you feed them petrol. Jul 04 12:18:09 i got these file from Jul 04 12:18:23 unfortunately, it sounds like you know _way_ less than you need to to be able to do much productive with the phone. Jul 04 12:18:44 perhaps Jul 04 12:19:37 http://www.motorolafans.com/forums/neo1973-freerunner/26084-iphoneos-freerunner.html Jul 04 12:19:54 i got these file from http://www.motorolafans.com/forums/neo1973-freerunner/26084-iphoneos-freerunner.html Jul 04 12:20:41 or anyother firmware like qutopia wich will have all the multimedia application to run my phone Jul 04 12:21:06 The referenced wiki page states it's an april fool's; http://openmoko-fr.org/wiki/index.php/IPhoneOS_on_Freerunner Jul 04 12:21:29 k Jul 04 12:21:56 anyother good firmware with good application and how to flash it uesing memory card Jul 04 12:22:35 Nothing's better than iphoneos Jul 04 12:23:13 i mean to say for openmoko phone Jul 04 12:23:27 ian202: it's a development platform, not a phone Jul 04 12:23:41 i can understand Jul 04 12:23:55 but master always help to newbees Jul 04 12:24:08 ? Jul 04 12:24:29 The problem is that you don't need one or two minutes help. Jul 04 12:24:37 You need weeks, or months. Jul 04 12:24:54 There are some images that mostly work as a phone Jul 04 12:24:56 there will be somthing in short Jul 04 12:25:13 but they do not have lots of easy to use applications. Jul 04 12:25:27 k Jul 04 12:25:32 Hi there. I tried to update my om2009 v5 with the latest releases and it seems some paroli-sounds packages are missing from the repository. Did anyone noticed it? Jul 04 12:25:33 so what should i do now Jul 04 12:25:50 ian202: I assume you can't return the phone for a refund? Jul 04 12:26:14 yes thats the main problam Jul 04 12:26:49 i will manage with a good firmware Jul 04 12:27:02 but please help me out Jul 04 12:27:18 ian202: there's no "good" (end-user ready) firmware yet. Sad but true. Jul 04 12:27:53 so please suggest me anyone you think better for me Jul 04 12:28:08 and yes how to instaal it Jul 04 12:28:24 ian202: you need to start to understand wiki first. Jul 04 12:28:30 ian202: to use dfu-util properly. Jul 04 12:28:44 ian202: after you do that, flash SHR testing image. Jul 04 12:29:41 the image i have is fake or real Jul 04 12:29:51 also, you might want to upgrade the gsm firmware, which is luckily pretty easy with the sd image here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GSM/Flashing Jul 04 12:29:55 ian202: it's a real image of FSO distro. Jul 04 12:30:12 iPhoneOS_rootfs_20090401.jffs2 Jul 04 12:30:22 mjr: easy for those who can use "dd" to prepare a uSD. Jul 04 12:30:34 ian202: man you start to look like a troll! Jul 04 12:31:03 lol Jul 04 12:31:08 PaulFertser, well, there's instructions, so... But meh, what do I know. Jul 04 12:31:15 now i can laugh @ me Jul 04 12:31:45 mjr: i was really sure that manual instructions are easy too. Reality proved to be different. Jul 04 12:32:12 is any video demo for newbees Jul 04 12:35:00 ian202: ok, let's proceed as following: you read the wiki page about flashing and tell us what you don't understand there. Follow the links dos1 gave you. Jul 04 12:35:06 k tell me is it easy to flash my phone uesing a linux pc like unbuntu or mindirova Jul 04 12:35:21 k Jul 04 12:35:27 let me tell you Jul 04 12:35:28 ian202: damn easy Jul 04 12:35:59 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Dfu-util-windows this is the page i start from Jul 04 12:36:33 as per instruction i have downloaded two files Jul 04 12:37:18 OpenMokoDFU.zip and dfu-util.exe Jul 04 12:37:55 now when i connect uesing usb it ask for some driver Jul 04 12:38:35 ian202: unzip the archive and give your windows that driver Jul 04 12:38:40 i have root the driver folder but phone do not choose any driver Jul 04 12:39:10 ian202: hm, i think i know why Jul 04 12:39:11 i also copy paste driver to win32 dir. Jul 04 12:39:21 ian202: i think you booted the phone fully Jul 04 12:39:36 means Jul 04 12:39:39 ian202: you need to boot to the menu only (NAND u-boot menu) and stay there. Jul 04 12:39:52 ian202: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Booting_the_Neo_FreeRunner Jul 04 12:39:56 ian202: boot to NAND u-boot Jul 04 12:40:00 ian202: stay in menu. Jul 04 12:40:20 k Jul 04 12:41:14 you mean to say by pressing the voice key and power on key pressinbg togather the menu will apear is nand moad Jul 04 12:41:50 ian202: read the page carefully, i can't say better than it's written there. Jul 04 12:42:53 k Jul 04 12:43:26 by this i can understand that i am in NOR FLASH menu rite now Jul 04 12:44:55 now it show me few option Jul 04 12:44:56 Boot Jul 04 12:45:23 2. boot from micro sd Jul 04 12:45:35 ian202: ok, that's ok. Plug it to your pc and install the driver Jul 04 12:45:35 3. set console to usb Jul 04 12:45:46 4. set console to serial Jul 04 12:45:52 5. reset Jul 04 12:46:02 6. power off Jul 04 12:46:14 ian202: ian202 any u-boot will do, NAND and NOR (it's just that NOR has a 30-seconds timeout and it will boot automatically) Jul 04 12:48:13 hey now i have driver install Jul 04 12:48:20 let me tell wich driver Jul 04 12:48:28 only one driver is pending Jul 04 12:49:12 this one install agree pci sv92pp soft modem Jul 04 12:50:06 now its asking for neo1973 bootloader 1.3.2-moko12 Jul 04 12:50:19 ian202: now you give it the driver you downloaded Jul 04 12:52:50 yes its install Jul 04 12:53:14 now what should i do Jul 04 12:54:21 ian202: boot to NAND u-boot menu and use dfu-util to flash kernel and rootfs. Jul 04 12:57:49 wheni press def-util.exe its just popup and end nothing is hapning Jul 04 12:58:28 ian202: this kernel: http://build.shr-project.org/shr-testing/images/om-gta02/uImage-om-gta02-latest.bin and this rootfs: http://build.shr-project.org/shr-testing/images/om-gta02/shr-image-om-gta02.jffs2 Jul 04 12:58:33 ian202: do not press dfu-util. Jul 04 12:58:38 ian202: use it according to the wiki! Jul 04 13:00:52 Most windows users even doesn't know basics of their beloved operating system! Fuck. They ask me how to properly specify file to open serial port. Why do i know that it's "\\.\COM11" and they don't? Ewww Jul 04 13:03:33 helloooo, i'm trying to flash my phone with the shr-unstable rootfs however dfu-util keep throwing an "dfu_download error -81" before finishing. Jul 04 13:03:47 has anybody heard of this issue? (GTA01 neo1973) Jul 04 13:03:48 PaulFertser: you might ask why those bought a FR first instance ;-O) Jul 04 13:04:58 DocScrutinizer: this particular "newbee" used motorola a1200 and thought that any "linux phone" is similar. Jul 04 13:05:10 DocScrutinizer: and probably that it can run "iphoneos". Jul 04 13:05:11 * DocScrutinizer hates dfu-util throwing numeric errors due to coders wrer lazy to translate to decent plain text error notification Jul 04 13:05:54 it always happen at the same spot, i'm wondering, do i need to do some partitioning to install the shr-unstable rootfs? Jul 04 13:05:55 Kyrah: double-check your command line (that you flash to the correct partition etc). And then try different usb port / cable, remove extra hubs on the way etc. Jul 04 13:06:00 Kyrah: no Jul 04 13:06:12 itsnot random, it always happen at the exact same point Jul 04 13:06:14 Kyrah: ah, gta01! Jul 04 13:06:26 Kyrah: wait, are you flashing the "light" image? Jul 04 13:06:31 i tried both Jul 04 13:06:47 soory sir i got disconected Jul 04 13:06:51 Kyrah: check for size of image Jul 04 13:06:52 the kernel work fine Jul 04 13:07:01 what image size should it be? Jul 04 13:07:12 tell me what to do after installing the nor boot driver Jul 04 13:07:19 less than the 128MB you have on GTA01 ;-) Jul 04 13:07:20 Kyrah: you need to be using light! Jul 04 13:07:31 Kyrah: not more than 64M Jul 04 13:07:38 ian202: do not press dfu-util. Jul 04 13:07:41 ian202: use it according to the wiki! Jul 04 13:07:44 and after downloading k Jul 04 13:07:49 ian202: this kernel: http://build.shr-project.org/shr-testing/images/om-gta02/uImage-om-gta02-latest.bin and this rootfs: http://build.shr-project.org/shr-testing/images/om-gta02/shr-image-om-gta02.jffs2 Jul 04 13:07:51 err, 64? sorry Jul 04 13:07:55 DocScrutinizer: gta01 Jul 04 13:08:08 testing is old ;/ Jul 04 13:08:11 yupyup Jul 04 13:08:11 use unstable ;) Jul 04 13:08:14 Paul i'm on a neo1973 Jul 04 13:08:19 DocScrutinizer: rootfs partition is even less than 64M i think. Jul 04 13:08:25 Kyrah: install to uSD ;-) Jul 04 13:08:28 Kyrah: neo1973 == gta01 Jul 04 13:08:45 umm what Doc? Jul 04 13:08:46 Kyrah: yes, i'd do as DocScrutinizer suggests, use rootfs on uSD. Jul 04 13:08:51 first link download me a 1.4 mb file Jul 04 13:08:53 i dunno how to do that Jul 04 13:08:56 its a image file Jul 04 13:09:01 PaulFertser: sure, as there's kernel, splash, root, etc partion Jul 04 13:09:06 ian2668: first link is the kernel image, second is the rootfs image. Jul 04 13:09:13 i have the kernel latest in place Jul 04 13:09:24 how do i install the rootfs on the sd card? Jul 04 13:09:49 and another link gave me a 84 mb file wich is downloading Jul 04 13:09:50 Kyrah: make a single primary ext3 partition, untar the image there. Jul 04 13:10:00 ian2668: as expected Jul 04 13:10:07 Kyrah: that's all :-) Jul 04 13:10:37 and what do i do with the rootfs? Jul 04 13:10:43 now aht to do Jul 04 13:10:44 Kyrah: probably you'll need to tweak your u-boot menu to boot kernel from NAND but use rootfs on uSD Jul 04 13:10:53 now what bto do ? Jul 04 13:10:56 Kyrah: then boot to uSD via uBoot-menu, or adjust your uBoot-env Jul 04 13:10:59 hrm Jul 04 13:11:18 so the gta01 light is guaranted to fit the rootfs? Jul 04 13:11:29 Kyrah: expand rootfs.tgz to uSD Jul 04 13:11:32 i'm gonna try again maybe i screwed up something... Jul 04 13:11:33 downloading finish Jul 04 13:11:38 ian2668: now read http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Dfu-util#Phrasebook until you're enlightened. Jul 04 13:11:41 now what to do Jul 04 13:11:49 yeah but i've no idea how to access the sdcard Jul 04 13:12:11 Kyrah: via your desktop PC ;-) Jul 04 13:12:14 ian2668: where're you from? Jul 04 13:12:31 Doc i knowit all sound simple for everyone exepted me. Jul 04 13:13:00 Kyrah: nah, see concurrent conversation PaulFertser | ian2668 Jul 04 13:13:42 Kyrah: learning curve on FR always very steep Jul 04 13:14:28 especially when you use a Neo :) Jul 04 13:14:43 Kyrah: i want to buy a gta01 Jul 04 13:15:05 Kyrah: for kernel work and hardware investigations Jul 04 13:15:24 Kyrah: i want to improve suspend and running time. Jul 04 13:15:42 Kyrah: Neo == [gta01; Neo_1973 & gta02; Neo FreeRunner] Jul 04 13:16:44 Kyrah: so what PaulFertser actually wants to say: do you want to sell yours? Jul 04 13:16:48 DocScrutinizer: can you imagine it? I failed to contact russian gta01 owners :( probably i need to try once more... Jul 04 13:17:34 the light appears to weight 63 megs Jul 04 13:17:40 sound good? Jul 04 13:17:48 Kyrah: too big Jul 04 13:18:08 the only smaller ones are the tar.gz ones Jul 04 13:18:18 Kyrah: we know there's been issues with too big builds for GTA01 Jul 04 13:18:20 Kyrah: yeah, too big. Complain to SHR devs. Jul 04 13:18:51 Kyrah: dn't worry into a headache, use uSD rather Jul 04 13:19:14 realy not getting anything Jul 04 13:19:24 ian2668: getting==understanding? Jul 04 13:19:26 Kyrah: dl the *.tgz and expand to uSD ext3 partition Jul 04 13:19:27 where to tyep these comand Jul 04 13:19:30 oh i found a 53 meg one Jul 04 13:19:35 ian2668: cmd.exe Jul 04 13:19:50 Kyrah: sounds muuuuch better Jul 04 13:19:52 k Jul 04 13:19:57 well i just wanna see the changes , see if it's worth putting my head back into it :) Jul 04 13:20:24 it has opened a c++ window Jul 04 13:20:25 Kyrah: recent SHR *is* worth it Jul 04 13:20:33 ian2668: Holy SHIT! Jul 04 13:20:39 loool Jul 04 13:20:42 ian2668: magical XP build you have there for sure! Jul 04 13:21:08 now what to tyep Jul 04 13:21:25 Your favourite C++ program of course Jul 04 13:21:29 * DocScrutinizer happy to not have had any need to touch that redmond-crap for >6months now Jul 04 13:21:36 I always do that when i see C++ windows. Jul 04 13:22:13 PaulFertser: I guess ian2668 will go nuts on that advice ;-D Jul 04 13:23:06 its shwoing me c/document and setting Jul 04 13:23:17 ian2668: wtf. Don't you get a simle terminal-window (white on black) when starting cmd.exe Jul 04 13:23:18 ? Jul 04 13:23:34 yes Jul 04 13:23:44 i don't get it... Jul 04 13:23:46 but the start command is Jul 04 13:23:52 ian2668: ok, now type "cd " Jul 04 13:24:07 http://shr.bearstech.com/shr-unstable/images/om-gta01/shr-shr-lite-image-glibc-ipk--20090611-om-gta01.rootfs.jffs2 --> 57Mb Jul 04 13:24:08 ian2668: then "dfu-util -a rootfs -R -D /path/to/openmoko-devel-image.jffs2" Jul 04 13:24:26 http://shr.bearstech.com/shr-unstable/images/om-gta01/shr-shr-lite-image-glibc-ipk--20090703-om-gta01.rootfs.jffs2 -- 63Mb Jul 04 13:24:43 why would they release a "lite" that can't fit in rootfs? Jul 04 13:24:57 Kyrah: by mistake. They don't release. And don't test mostly. Jul 04 13:25:10 well all the recent lite are too big for rootfs Jul 04 13:25:19 Kyrah: autobuilding. Jul 04 13:25:27 Kyrah: complain to SHR devs, they'll fix it. Jul 04 13:25:28 Kyrah: yes. nown issue Jul 04 13:25:38 Kyrah: pester mrmoku ;-) Jul 04 13:25:42 well imnot a pest i'm glad to get what i can Jul 04 13:25:57 after tyeping nothing is hapning can you tell me the full comand what should i tyep Jul 04 13:25:59 just thought it was curious Jul 04 13:26:38 ian2668: that's probably been the full command Jul 04 13:26:58 you mean to say it will be like Jul 04 13:27:49 c:\document and setting\amit> Jul 04 13:28:18 c:\document and setting\amit> what to tyep after This Jul 04 13:28:28 17:23 < PaulFertser> ian2668: ok, now type "cd " Jul 04 13:28:39 17:23 < PaulFertser> ian2668: then "dfu-util -a rootfs -R -D /path/to/openmoko-devel-image.jffs2" Jul 04 13:29:18 cd MyOpenmokoDownloadDir Jul 04 13:30:04 dir dfu-util* Jul 04 13:30:17 ian2668: what output???

Jul 04 13:33:05 what to do sir Jul 04 13:33:05 Kyrah: much more convenient. 64 really is too small for a decent OS Jul 04 13:33:42 dir is working show me lots of option Jul 04 13:33:49 i most likely lost the usb dcard reader ... Jul 04 13:34:10 i have all the file on my desktop Jul 04 13:34:20 what will be the comand Jul 04 13:36:14 [2009-07-04 15:28:28] 17:23 < PaulFertser> ian2668: ok, now type "cd " Jul 04 13:36:15 [2009-07-04 15:28:39] 17:23 < PaulFertser> ian2668: then "dfu-util -a rootfs -R -D /path/to/openmoko-devel-image.jffs2" Jul 04 13:37:12 ian2668: please try to find help from experienced windows users on how to use commandline terminal cmd.exe Jul 04 13:37:13 can you dfu-util to the sd card? :) Jul 04 13:38:02 Kyrah: nope Jul 04 13:38:24 but if you have a working OS on your device, you can scp Jul 04 13:38:47 do you have some desktop manager like desktop sharing clint Jul 04 13:38:56 so you can do it for me Jul 04 13:39:05 well my device is inoperant for now Jul 04 13:39:28 Kyrah: alas it seems you just flashed a non-working OS to your device ;-P Jul 04 13:39:36 yes Jul 04 13:40:29 yeah Jul 04 13:40:38 i jsut found the usb to sdcard tool Jul 04 13:40:50 now if i could find the sdcard to microsd card tool... Jul 04 13:41:17 is anybody from india Jul 04 13:41:30 Kyrah: get yourself a uSD usb-stick. Transcend is selling uSD cards with usb-stick in a blister for ~3bucks more than plain uSD Jul 04 13:41:57 onen|openBmap: why some cells are white and some grey on google earth? Jul 04 13:42:07 Kyrah: or use that adapter, yeah Jul 04 13:43:06 i haz it! Jul 04 13:43:24 is anybody from india Jul 04 13:44:07 Kyrah: I'm not sure about if old uBoot (or all uBoot) need a small (8MB) vfat partition at start of uSD to hold the kernel. I formated my uSD like this and it worked Jul 04 13:44:37 the uboot does offer to boot on sdcard Jul 04 13:44:46 PaulFertser should know better, but then paul always used Qi ;-P Jul 04 13:44:46 ian2: search the internet for something like "command line cmd.exe for windows dummies" Jul 04 13:45:10 Kyrah: yes, default u-boot menu has that option but it wants to grab kernel from uSD too. Jul 04 13:45:28 Kyrah: the problem is that old u-boot versions (probably modern too) don't support SDHC. Jul 04 13:45:58 PaulFertser: duh, boting great from 4GB here Jul 04 13:46:16 DocScrutinizer: that's gta02 u-boot Jul 04 13:46:25 yup Jul 04 13:46:38 I know someone did SDHC support for u-boot on gta01 but i'm not sure it's now in the OM repo. Jul 04 13:47:05 Kyrah: i implemented SDHC for gta01 in Qi and it is in the OM repo for sure. Jul 04 13:47:13 Kyrah: so with a 1GB or smaler uSD you're fine anyway Jul 04 13:47:52 Kyrah: what's the uSD you intend to use right now? Jul 04 13:48:17 a 4gb i have Jul 04 13:48:23 eew Jul 04 13:48:31 eew? Jul 04 13:48:31 that's SDHC Jul 04 13:48:42 well otherwise i have a 512mb Jul 04 13:48:45 afaik Jul 04 13:48:54 sdhc is a problem? Jul 04 13:48:58 Kyrah: that one is perfect for now Jul 04 13:49:07 wich one? Jul 04 13:49:11 :D Jul 04 13:49:13 [2009-07-04 15:46:38] I know someone did SDHC support for u-boot on gta01 but i'm not sure it's now in the OM repo. Jul 04 13:49:19 oh Jul 04 13:49:21 Kyrah: you can boot kernel from NAND and use SDHC rootfs without problems! Jul 04 13:49:27 Kyrah: just tweak u-boot menu Jul 04 13:49:42 another possible way, yes Jul 04 13:49:45 well do i keep the 4gb or what? Jul 04 13:49:54 Kyrah: you choice Jul 04 13:49:58 choose Jul 04 13:50:00 I suggest you use the 512 for now Jul 04 13:50:09 least work Jul 04 13:50:12 okay gonna forwmat it to ext3 and then i come back Jul 04 13:50:37 Kyrah: create a 8MB vfat and the remaining space ext3 Jul 04 13:50:54 copy kernel to vfat partition Jul 04 13:51:21 expand rootfs.tgz to ext3 partition Jul 04 13:51:35 use uboot menu to "boot from uSD" Jul 04 13:51:47 DocScrutinizer: ugly :-/ Are you sure uboot on gta01 doesn't support ext2? Jul 04 13:51:59 Well, whatever. Jul 04 13:52:03 dunno, as stated before Jul 04 13:52:13 Kyrah: i guess you need to start understanding that stuff yourself anyway. Jul 04 13:52:55 Kyrah: or sell me your gta01 with a discount ;) Jul 04 13:52:57 PaulFertser: I guess old uBoot on gta01 needs the vfat Jul 04 13:53:41 rah Jul 04 13:53:44 PaulFertser: and hey, 512 - 8 = 504 Jul 04 13:53:47 i jsut came back :( Jul 04 13:53:56 and i guess i've to start over :D Jul 04 13:54:11 okay so a 8mb vfat and rest in ext2 ? Jul 04 13:54:16 yup Jul 04 13:54:23 or ext3 Jul 04 13:54:24 oookayy Jul 04 13:54:31 wich is best for this ? Jul 04 13:54:41 speed, reliability on an sd card, etc Jul 04 13:54:48 mark vfat bootable - dunno if it's needed but wn't hurt Jul 04 13:55:06 ext3 preferred I think Jul 04 13:56:15 what is the official name of vfat on fdisk? Jul 04 13:56:17 fat16? Jul 04 13:57:02 dunno exactly. fat32, fat16 sth like that Jul 04 13:58:54 Anyone know what name an usbserial device would get in /dev/ on the newest kernel? Jul 04 13:59:18 openmoko: 03werner * r5287 10/trunk/gta02-core/scripts/all-sheets: Jul 04 13:59:18 openmoko: Added x offset to Postscript generated by all-sheets, so that we have less Jul 04 13:59:18 openmoko: (or no) clipping. Jul 04 14:01:07 Kyrah: cfdisk: Jul 04 14:01:11 Disk Drive: /dev/sdb Jul 04 14:01:24 lysgaard: hey :) Jul 04 14:01:38 sdb1 Boot Primary FAT16 [ ] 8.26 Jul 04 14:01:39 sdb2 Primary Linux ext3 3955.36 Jul 04 14:02:00 Kyrah: hth Jul 04 14:02:17 Kyrah: vfat works on any fat version (fat12, fat16 and fat32) Jul 04 14:02:40 Kyrah: it's a higher-level abstraction to use longnames and shit without loosing dos-compatibility. Jul 04 14:02:57 PaulFertser: Hey =) I've got the serial port working! =) There was something wrong with the latest SHR image, i flashed an older one Jul 04 14:03:07 dos1: no idea. I will ask Nick if he knows Jul 04 14:03:16 lysgaard: the serial port? I thought you wanted usb host? Jul 04 14:03:21 Kyrah: Jul 04 14:03:23 halley:~ # ls -l /media/disk-2 Jul 04 14:03:24 total 1790 Jul 04 14:03:26 -rwxr-xr-x 1 jr root 1832140 May 30 02:22 uimage.bin Jul 04 14:04:26 PaulFertser: Yup, then i plug an arduino board in the usb plug. It acts as an usbclient, and emulates a serialport Jul 04 14:04:36 okay what you use already to format a fat partition? Jul 04 14:04:41 mkfat or something? Jul 04 14:05:13 lysgaard: so it was a kernel regression? Jul 04 14:05:19 Kyrah: yup, mkfs.vfat Jul 04 14:05:28 lysgaard: i mean usb host didn't work because of the FR's kernel? Jul 04 14:05:39 Kyrah: Jul 04 14:05:41 halley:~ # ls -l /media/disk-1 Jul 04 14:05:42 total 1100 Jul 04 14:05:44 -rw------- 1 root root 0 Jun 4 08:03 .python-history Jul 04 14:05:45 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1048576 Jun 22 11:34 1mbfile Jul 04 14:05:47 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 29 17:38 bin Jul 04 14:05:48 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 29 17:38 boot Jul 04 14:05:50 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 1 2000 dev Jul 04 14:05:53 Kyrah: yes, mkfs.vfat Jul 04 14:06:39 okay i mounted the vfat partition, i have to drop the kerl in it right? Jul 04 14:06:40 lysgaard: it's very strange because i used basically the latest kernel here. Jul 04 14:06:43 PaulFertser: Nope, i use the newest kernel, but an older image of shr. I guess there was some problems with the usbhost button in the settings panel Jul 04 14:07:14 Kyrah: notice in above pasted lines, actually disk-2 is the fat16 partition, which is first partition on uSD Jul 04 14:07:15 so i simply plop down the .bin file in it? Jul 04 14:07:24 yup Jul 04 14:07:34 and for rootfs? Jul 04 14:07:46 openmoko: 03werner * r5288 10/trunk/gta02-core/ (cpu.sch gps.sch lcm.sch memory.sch pmu.sch): Jul 04 14:07:46 openmoko: Style cleanup. Jul 04 14:07:46 openmoko: - changed si-prefixes K, N, U to lower case Jul 04 14:07:46 openmoko: - removed H for "Henry" Jul 04 14:07:46 openmoko: - changed invisible "100M" of B2201 to "100MHz" Jul 04 14:07:47 openmoko: - made sheet label of LCM sheet bold Jul 04 14:07:52 lysgaard: but i thought you were using sysfs directly, no? Jul 04 14:07:53 i untar the latest archive in the other partition amiright? Jul 04 14:07:59 expand the tarball to ext2/3 partition Jul 04 14:08:12 yup Jul 04 14:08:40 lysgaard: back to your question, it's /dev/ttyUSB0 or smth Jul 04 14:08:45 lysgaard: you'll find that in dmesg. Jul 04 14:08:49 Kyrah: kernel.bin and rootfs have to match, otherwise you miss the right modules Jul 04 14:09:00 PaulFertser: Nope, i used the usbhost button. I just checked with the sysfs to see if it worked, wich seemed like, but aperently didnt Jul 04 14:09:02 lysgaard: obviously you need to have usbserial.ko (and specific hardware driver) loaded. Jul 04 14:09:14 PaulF Jul 04 14:09:26 PaulFertser: Whats the usbserial modules name? Jul 04 14:10:06 lysgaard: the same you use on your PC host when you plug your board to it. Jul 04 14:10:24 lysgaard: e.g. when i use an ft232r-based converter, it's ft232_sio or smth. Jul 04 14:11:26 how do you knwo kernel.bin and rootfs match, on shr-unstable it only says kernenel.bin latest Jul 04 14:11:42 Kyrah: you'll see it after you boot it ;) Jul 04 14:11:45 PaulFertser: Thanks, i actually have an ft232 ;) Jul 04 14:11:48 ugggh Jul 04 14:15:26 Kyrah: I also think that's a big flaw of shr-u buildprocess/dirs Jul 04 14:16:14 Kyrah: you find some matching kernels in people.openmoko.org/joerg/shr_unstable Jul 04 14:16:42 lysgaard: ftdi_sio Jul 04 14:17:02 lysgaard: and it's in moredrivers defconfig in modules, so if you've installed the modules tarball, it should be there. Jul 04 14:17:45 Kyrah: I started to mirror the shr-dl-dir when there were times it didn't have any kernel at all ;-P Jul 04 14:18:14 PaulFertser: I have! Then you helping me with compiling a kernel was not wasted at all =) Jul 04 14:19:56 Kyrah: I'd recommend to use 20090703 though. There's the matching uimage.bin at shr-server Jul 04 14:20:17 DocScrutinizer: do you think it worth trying to find the element that emits high-pitched sound when screen is rotated? I'd need to take off the can again... Jul 04 14:20:41 PaulFertser: to what goal? Jul 04 14:20:48 DocScrutinizer: to make it silent Jul 04 14:21:01 DocScrutinizer: i don't want to use a device while it emits high-pitched sounds. Jul 04 14:21:08 if that's your plan, you're welcome Jul 04 14:21:11 If it bothers you, sure. Jul 04 14:21:30 Does disabling the speakers work? Jul 04 14:21:35 SpeedEvil: wouldn't it bother you? Jul 04 14:21:51 It depends on the frequency. Jul 04 14:21:55 Strange, i get FATAL: Module lib/modules/2.6.29_GTA02_andy_tracking_mokodev/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.ko not found. Even though the file exists Jul 04 14:21:57 >30KHz, no Jul 04 14:22:09 PaulFertser: I'm an old man, you know ;-) Jul 04 14:22:10 SpeedEvil: hm, i haven't tried disabling the speakers, the sound looks more like some "loose" L. Jul 04 14:22:11 And I don't have a FR - so meh. Jul 04 14:22:39 lysgaard: depmod -a? Jul 04 14:22:46 SpeedEvil: (>30kHz) LOL Jul 04 14:22:48 PaulFertser: sure - I'm having problems seeing how it coud be - the LCM shouldn't AIUI have significant time-varying components of current Jul 04 14:23:13 DocScrutinizer: What does it do? Jul 04 14:23:27 worked now! =) Jul 04 14:23:31 lysgaard: man depmod Jul 04 14:24:12 SpeedEvil: i think young people can hear sound @~20kHz, and when they are older, it decrements :x Jul 04 14:24:21 lysgaard: iirc builds some cache Jul 04 14:25:12 dos1: And listening to rap music/jackhammering/shooting guns/... also Jul 04 14:25:25 i prefer metal :D Jul 04 14:25:42 what about a little bit of ska? Jul 04 14:25:44 :D Jul 04 14:26:36 i think that sound is something about 15kHz Jul 04 14:26:40 SpeedEvil: still no fun, restoring gsmheadset doesn't affect it. Jul 04 14:26:45 dos1: yep, looks like that Jul 04 14:27:07 2 years ago i could hear sounds up to 22kHz Jul 04 14:27:13 The line freq would be what... Jul 04 14:27:31 actually no Jul 04 14:27:33 dos1: 30years ago me too ;-P Jul 04 14:27:37 SpeedEvil: also it stops when the display is blanked. Jul 04 14:27:39 the LCD is exactly the same mode Jul 04 14:27:49 and that sound isn't high as that ;) Jul 04 14:27:52 The display does no rotation at all Jul 04 14:28:02 It's the glamo that rotates. Jul 04 14:28:13 SpeedEvil: but it has some different modes Jul 04 14:28:20 SpeedEvil: well, do you have other theory that explains it? Jul 04 14:28:22 (look at stipes which are sometimes visible) Jul 04 14:28:28 Yes - it can do pixel binning and stuff Jul 04 14:28:41 maybe refresh rate? Jul 04 14:28:41 SpeedEvil: actually there's a landscape/portrait switch for jbt7k afaik Jul 04 14:28:43 The LCD is very dumb though - it has no internal RAM Jul 04 14:28:45 meh Jul 04 14:28:51 i should have an sdcard ready soonish Jul 04 14:28:58 Fair enough, I thought it wasn't. Jul 04 14:29:31 In that case, the line pitch should alter by 640/480ths as it rotates Jul 04 14:30:14 38KHz to 28KHz Jul 04 14:30:48 son once i have my sdcard ready what reamains to do? Jul 04 14:30:53 well, that sould wasn't there some time ago, and people started to complain at it when i noticed it first time, so it was introduced by some kernel change Jul 04 14:31:04 Assuming the frame rate stays at 60fps Jul 04 14:31:10 Kyrah: boot it ;) Jul 04 14:31:26 SpeedEvil: i think it doesn't stay... we should check it Jul 04 14:31:31 dos1: i've just tried .24 Jul 04 14:31:31 yeah but that means using the uboot menu right? Jul 04 14:31:33 dos1: no change Jul 04 14:31:35 won't do it by itself Jul 04 14:31:46 dos1: and tried with some february version, same shit Jul 04 14:32:01 Kyrah: exactly Jul 04 14:32:03 PaulFertser: hmm... bootloader? Jul 04 14:32:12 dunno ;x Jul 04 14:32:16 dos1: maybe Jul 04 14:32:20 maybe uboot was setting something differently? Jul 04 14:32:42 i'm sure i doesn't have that sound at beginning Jul 04 14:32:51 i was using landscape mode quite often Jul 04 14:33:15 (in 2007.2 there was bug button at AUX menu for change between portrait and landscape :)) Jul 04 14:33:26 s/bug/big/ Jul 04 14:33:27 dos1 meant: (in 2007.2 there was big button at AUX menu for change between portrait and landscape :)) Jul 04 14:33:28 ^^ Jul 04 14:33:32 could be X choosing different line settings Jul 04 14:33:55 that would be odd - no Xglamo changes for long time... Jul 04 14:34:01 ahem Jul 04 14:34:06 Ok, booting 2007.2 with nor u-boot Jul 04 14:34:16 it seems this uboot demande the kernel partition to be in ext2 Jul 04 14:34:24 Failed Jul 04 14:34:29 it makes an error saying it can't mount the partition Jul 04 14:34:40 hmmm Jul 04 14:34:42 Kyrah: ext3? Jul 04 14:34:46 Too big kernel image there Jul 04 14:34:48 no, vfat Jul 04 14:35:02 Kyrah: so use fatload instead of ext2load Jul 04 14:35:13 Kyrah: nope, that's likely about rootfs Jul 04 14:35:19 welll itsnot in the uboot menu i can't run it :p Jul 04 14:35:38 anyway turning the boot parittion ot ext2 is a 5 minutes job so... Jul 04 14:35:39 Kyrah: connect to PC and change env... Jul 04 14:35:55 doesn't bother me Jul 04 14:36:07 dos1: that's exactly the plan to avoid that Jul 04 14:36:14 oh Jul 04 14:36:15 :D Jul 04 14:36:37 what about Qi? Jul 04 14:36:54 dos1: more failure modes involved Jul 04 14:37:04 same for Qi Jul 04 14:37:16 ok Jul 04 14:37:34 dos1: we're talking about a teaser install here Jul 04 14:38:38 dos1: as your f*ckng gta01 inages are too big Jul 04 14:38:45 ;-P Jul 04 14:39:42 well, gta01 images are for using with SD card :D Jul 04 14:40:03 maybe someone will come and strip lite image down to fit into gta01 Jul 04 14:40:09 aaaah, yes. especially *.jffs2 ;-D Jul 04 14:40:14 but that's not me - i don't have gta01 to test ;) Jul 04 14:40:29 someone can send me of course, and i'll play with it :D Jul 04 14:42:51 k, bbl Jul 04 14:49:59 PaulFertser: could you use a remote login to gta01?

Jul 04 15:06:57 Kyrah: also you might log in to uboot and enter correct boot command manually Jul 04 15:07:15 DocScrutinizer: i'm guilty of using 2.6.14 on my desktop and now buggy cdc_acm driver borked and i can't connect to u-boot console to alter the environment to boot a bigger kernel :-/ Jul 04 15:07:25 then if you put it to work, change env Jul 04 15:08:01 dos1: can you try booting with NOR u-boot to check if the sound is there? Jul 04 15:08:05 PaulFertser: ouch Jul 04 15:09:34 PaulFertser: I'm guilty of wasting a whole nice afternoon with sunny weather by sitting on my IT-gadgets ;-) Jul 04 15:10:08 Not that nice here, strong wind and semi-cold weather Jul 04 15:10:39 not as hot as yesterday here, only 27C Jul 04 15:10:51 I'd prefer 27, i like when it's hot Jul 04 15:23:24 Only 23.
