**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Sep 24 02:59:57 2008 Sep 24 03:04:10 how do i stop 2008.8 from making my sdcard busy? Sep 24 03:04:35 don't install it on the sdcard? Sep 24 03:04:52 why? Sep 24 03:06:16 that would make it not busy up the sdcard Sep 24 03:06:52 trying to install debian to the sdcard an i get this Sep 24 03:07:13 umount: /media/card: device is busy Sep 24 03:07:28 ...nvm Sep 24 03:07:38 lol Sep 24 03:10:47 umount -fl /media/card Sep 24 03:10:56 Sep 24 03:11:17 also you may not be able to remount it without a reboot or something like a reread of the device Sep 24 03:12:32 http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?umount+8 Sep 24 03:12:56 ok Sep 24 03:20:36 yay Sep 24 03:20:53 anywho Sep 24 03:20:55 bedtime Sep 24 03:20:55 nn Sep 24 03:23:43 later Sep 24 03:25:03 how would one cause 2008.8 to use the tangogps maps from the debian install on sdcard Sep 24 03:25:21 a simple path maybe? Sep 24 03:27:20 just point it to the appropriate maps cache dir in the tango config Sep 24 03:34:47 freesmartphone.org: 03mickey 07framework * rbd066c464603 10/tools/cli-framework: Sep 24 03:34:47 freesmartphone.org: tools: add usage and gps interfaces to cli-framework. closes fso #131 Sep 24 03:34:47 freesmartphone.org: patch by fso@mattb.net.nz, thanks! Sep 24 03:39:27 yea but i dont know where that is Sep 24 04:44:08 come on in people Sep 24 04:46:16 u mean om-location? Sep 24 04:46:44 dunno if those (tangogps) tiles are compatible with om-location Sep 24 04:47:25 and i also am kinda depressed there is no config file that i know of to tell om-location where to save cache Sep 24 04:48:02 AFAIK it gets dumped in tmp(ram) to be lost on reboot Sep 24 04:48:32 wich upsets me cause i dont get unlimited GPRS (GSM internet) Sep 24 04:48:53 which*? Sep 24 04:49:58 old habiuts die hard Sep 24 04:52:28 last time i used tangogps on an eeepc there was the tile cache location in tangogps's gui config Sep 24 04:55:11 but i think slaxxin is talking about using "location" (om-location binary) Sep 24 04:55:27 to utilize tangogps's tiles cache Sep 24 04:55:57 * kd8ikt throws his two cents out and doesnt care what change comes back Sep 24 04:57:29 it still is. Sep 24 04:58:22 ah wait no. i think they are working on that. it would be nice to have locations and tango use the same tiles tho. Sep 24 05:00:01 how to get zhone to die in debian? Sep 24 05:02:18 killall zhone Sep 24 05:02:40 Sep 24 05:04:27 or ' for $pid in $(ps ax |grep zhone |awk '{print $1}' ); do kill -KILL $pid ; done; Sep 24 05:04:57 but if you're using that lil onscreen keyboard that might not be feasible Sep 24 05:05:52 so if i killall zhone i can enter "zhone an it will start back up? Sep 24 05:06:09 should Sep 24 05:06:18 zhone & to deamonize it Sep 24 05:08:11 is there a debian gui? Sep 24 05:08:26 x11 Sep 24 05:08:42 anything that uses xserver Sep 24 05:08:50 is zhone the desktop? Sep 24 05:09:06 not Sep 24 05:10:06 i believe the debian rootfs uses plain ole xserver with zhone and a teminal/keyboard Sep 24 05:11:05 so x is already running ? Sep 24 05:11:18 i killed zhone Sep 24 05:11:36 yea Sep 24 05:11:48 else zhone wouldnt be able to start Sep 24 05:12:04 so theres no bachground image? Sep 24 05:13:24 nope Sep 24 05:13:35 u mean zhone's lil background? Sep 24 05:13:49 dunno how one would/could change that Sep 24 05:14:07 might be compiled in or somethin Sep 24 05:14:23 couldnt hurt to gander at the source Sep 24 05:14:25 uhm Sep 24 05:14:44 SpeedEvil, yt?

Sep 24 08:39:36 but i dont know how to do this. Sep 24 08:40:32 beni_: there is an easy way to just "select a background" Sep 24 08:40:39 have u use e on the desktop? Sep 24 08:43:01 raster: no Sep 24 08:43:07 aha! Sep 24 08:43:21 that's why you're missing all the bits i'm talking about Sep 24 08:43:22 :) Sep 24 08:43:28 e has all these things Sep 24 08:43:29 yes, most probably :) Sep 24 08:43:32 and a mountain more Sep 24 08:43:44 om decided not to give them to you Sep 24 08:43:49 their choice Sep 24 08:43:52 not mine Sep 24 08:43:57 not e's Sep 24 08:43:58 dont blamed you ;) Sep 24 08:44:06 nothing "to do" Sep 24 08:44:08 its done Sep 24 08:44:12 just not exposed to you Sep 24 08:44:22 sure e's config dialogs that do this dont fit nicely on 480x640 Sep 24 08:44:22 it only would be cool, if there would be some "default" way in om how to do that kind of stuff Sep 24 08:44:33 but thats a mater of re-arranging them Sep 24 08:44:38 they are already pluggable modules Sep 24 08:45:18 well, i hope, they will make that available soon. Until then, i keep on compiling :) Sep 24 08:45:40 or do i have other choices? Sep 24 08:46:00 well i'm going to have e on fso have most of it's desktop stuff Sep 24 08:46:04 i've been working on a theme Sep 24 08:46:09 and been doign small tweaks to it Sep 24 08:46:19 likely om wont use any of it Sep 24 08:46:34 as it goes against their policy of making everything python Sep 24 08:46:39 as i tend to do everything in c Sep 24 08:46:53 so they wont want to expose more features form e that are in c Sep 24 08:47:37 right now i'm adding to e the ability to auto-scale all of its ui based on dpi Sep 24 08:47:44 but much more intelligently than just "svg" Sep 24 08:47:49 ie scale everything or nothing Sep 24 08:47:56 u can selectively scale elements Sep 24 08:48:00 and keep some pixel-perfect Sep 24 08:48:03 alreadydone in edje Sep 24 08:48:11 alreayd has a scale control Sep 24 08:48:24 works - now i just need ot have e twiddle the scale control knob Sep 24 08:48:46 make it go up to 11! Sep 24 08:48:56 u dont want that! Sep 24 08:49:15 yes! its 1 better than 10 Sep 24 08:49:15 unless u have yourself some 1700 dpi screen... :) Sep 24 08:49:43 i just need to have all the options there Sep 24 08:49:46 ie dont scale with dpi Sep 24 08:49:49 auto-scale with dpi Sep 24 08:49:56 limit scale facrot between X and Y Sep 24 08:49:59 factor Sep 24 08:50:07 use a custom scale factor Sep 24 08:50:08 etc. Sep 24 08:51:32 i personally cannot see the appeal of pyhton Sep 24 08:51:43 or python for that matter Sep 24 08:51:50 same Sep 24 08:51:59 actually i can Sep 24 08:52:04 for lazy programmers Sep 24 08:52:08 heh Sep 24 08:52:10 maybe for prototyping Sep 24 08:52:14 rapid "i just hacked up an idea in the last 10 mins": Sep 24 08:52:37 python/perl/java... same thing Sep 24 08:52:38 put i don't like lazy typed language Sep 24 08:52:39 or for "i barely know how to rub 2 sticks together to make fire, letalone program, but with python! i can make software!" Sep 24 08:52:56 (personalyl such people should have their fingers lopped off so they dont infect us with their software...) Sep 24 08:52:59 (i mean apart for ocaml :D) Sep 24 08:53:27 ocaml on neo, i need to try this :) Sep 24 08:53:27 in the end - if u want it done rightand efficiently Sep 24 08:53:35 and solidly.. it comes back to c/c++... Sep 24 08:53:36 :) Sep 24 08:53:50 or ocaml :p Sep 24 08:53:55 as long as u just have lots of libraries that make life easy there (qt, glib, gtk, efl etc.) Sep 24 08:53:59 it's largely irrelevant Sep 24 08:54:14 i'd say om spent more development time on exposure in python Sep 24 08:54:19 than it would have been in c Sep 24 08:54:29 by probably 3-4 times as much dev time Sep 24 08:55:17 their choice ... :( Sep 24 08:55:18 hmmm Sep 24 08:55:29 sure Sep 24 08:55:43 doesnt say much for python though Sep 24 08:56:25 imho Sep 24 08:56:34 ok Sep 24 08:56:44 if u wanted control over how your ui scales... Sep 24 08:56:56 actually never mind Sep 24 08:57:02 my usual experience with python is needing to solve 1/10 of time and code compared to c Sep 24 08:57:02 it wotn make sense to ppl :) Sep 24 08:58:23 i would disagree Sep 24 08:58:35 ronny: maybe a question of pratice with C ? Sep 24 08:58:44 then again i have been eating, sleeping and breathing c for over a decade Sep 24 08:58:53 i've probably whacked out about 700k lines of c in that time Sep 24 08:58:57 becjone: i work with gtk, and i make signals/inheritance tree Sep 24 08:59:02 so to me c is zero barrier Sep 24 08:59:28 doesnt slow me down - the code and solutions (not the language and mechanics) are the real thngs to think over Sep 24 09:00:09 to me python has only the "pro of non compilation" but "the cons of speed" Sep 24 09:00:24 i'd rather take speed Sep 24 09:00:33 i can always find a use for cycles Sep 24 09:00:35 always... Sep 24 09:00:50 and i'd rahter give those cycles to the user Sep 24 09:00:57 and make them do osmething the user will like Sep 24 09:01:04 rather than use them up in language choice Sep 24 09:01:05 :) Sep 24 09:01:06 usualy my python code performs mostly equivalent to c Sep 24 09:01:09 but hey - that's me Sep 24 09:01:10 :) Sep 24 09:01:24 but thats cause im not writing numeric things Sep 24 09:01:35 raster: yeah that because debuging with hard coded is easy for you Sep 24 09:01:43 and many things just call to c code Sep 24 09:01:53 becjone: just a matter of experience Sep 24 09:02:03 also debugging is easier in c Sep 24 09:02:07 onc eu have python Sep 24 09:02:12 ronny: i agree for GUI python is enough Sep 24 09:02:15 and its calling some pyhton bindings Sep 24 09:02:20 freesmartphone.org: 03jluebbe 07zhone * r9478feff4823 10/data/themes/ (10 files): use fontconfig instead of the embedded font (fixes chinese text) Sep 24 09:02:20 freesmartphone.org: 03jluebbe 07zhone * r5224f9fdb20d 10/data/fonts/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf: remove font file Sep 24 09:02:22 which then call some c libs..

Should we be in a hurry to move on to 2008.8 Sep 24 09:05:34 its up to the community to support 2007 Sep 24 09:05:38 om no longer does Sep 24 09:06:34 oh Sep 24 09:07:30 raster: i never saw a usefull open-source c++ debugger - the pretty much all "break" on the stl Sep 24 09:07:36 shaz: are you listening?

Sep 24 10:43:15 i remember, you told me Sep 24 10:43:23 sorry for asking such dumb questionsd. Sep 24 10:47:05 sakkara, what is FDOM? Sep 24 10:54:26 widrone: 2 Sep 24 10:54:28 oops Sep 24 10:54:40 should have been /windows 2 X) Sep 24 11:01:37 Heh, made me wake up atleast ;) Sep 24 11:04:48 hossi: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FDOM Sep 24 11:08:42 hi, how do I notify the author of a wiki or even change a wiki entry ? Sep 24 11:08:44 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Changing_wallpaper Sep 24 11:09:01 this wiki is not quite correct Sep 24 11:09:28 if you register - you can be the author Sep 24 11:09:45 <[df]> is FDOM equivalent to 2008.9 with extra apps installed? Sep 24 11:11:02 [df]: i believe its 2008.8 with extra apps and fixes... Sep 24 11:11:33 <[df]> but is there stuff there you can't get just by using opkg from within 2008? Sep 24 11:11:44 * [df] is still very confused about which distro to run :( Sep 24 11:12:12 you can use opkg without problem, its like 2008.8 Sep 24 11:12:27 its just "fuller" Sep 24 11:12:34 [df]: welcome to the club ;-) Sep 24 11:12:35 hi, is any admins of the Projects.Openmoko.org here? Sep 24 11:12:59 i tried 2007, 2008, qtopia, fdom, fso, ... Sep 24 11:13:00 gregdude: roh <= Sep 24 11:13:00 <[df]> so given that I've already installed a load of extra stuff on 2008.9, there's not much to be gained by switching to FDOM? Sep 24 11:13:09 oh, sure, thanks Sep 24 11:13:59 [df]: well, i think the wifi driver is a bit better, but i dont know... Sep 24 11:14:29 my wifi (nearly) doesnt crash anymore Sep 24 11:15:31 <[df]> I might try dual-booting qtopia Sep 24 11:15:52 in my opinion the cutest and most usable "out-of-the-box" is qtiopa, but it lacks a good gps-app... Sep 24 11:16:36 <[df]> when I install stuff using opkg, is that going onto the sd card? Sep 24 11:17:16 normally not, its installed on the nand Sep 24 11:17:36 <[df]> so what is the sd card used for if you're not dual booting? Sep 24 11:17:49 <[df]> mine seems to have something called qtopia_db.sqlite on it, which I guess is the contacts db? Sep 24 11:18:02 for whatever you want? Sep 24 11:18:25 for video for example if you want to try it :D Sep 24 11:18:26 <[df]> ah ok, so photos, music, videos or whatever Sep 24 11:18:36 you can install software packages in there too optionally, if you're running low on space, and then there's multimedia and map data and stuff Sep 24 11:18:44 yes, everything you do on the card^^ Sep 24 11:18:55 <[df]> if the contacts db is on there though, will it be able to share that between the two distros if I dual-boot? Sep 24 11:19:01 i save the gps maps and tracks there Sep 24 11:19:23 you could split it into partions... Sep 24 11:19:40 <[df]> ah, I see Sep 24 11:19:50 <[df]> then have one partition for the OS and one for general use Sep 24 11:20:14 tonight i had my phone in suspend. At morning the GUI was showing (i did nothing to wake it up) and battery was drained severely. Is there something known that wakes freerunner at 2008.9 up? Sep 24 11:22:37 beni_: suspend isn't working without bug :D (mine can't wake up or don't turn screen on :) ) Sep 24 11:23:08 is the stock u-boot good enough for http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.9/ ? Sep 24 11:23:10 becjone: i had this issues with om2008.8 Sep 24 11:23:12 on a FR Sep 24 11:23:18 but this works now reliably Sep 24 11:23:34 beni_: yeah i haven't search yet; no time Sep 24 11:23:43 nyu: i would flash it with a recent version unless you have made huge adjustments. Sep 24 11:23:50 beni_: okay Sep 24 11:23:57 nyu: in that case i would make a backup of the config first Sep 24 11:24:23 beni_: it's a stock setup Sep 24 11:24:36 nyu: which production date? Sep 24 11:24:54 beni_: no idea TBH. it's a FR Sep 24 11:24:57 used to have om2007 Sep 24 11:25:06 becjone: i will try that again tonight. lets see what it tells tomorrow. Sep 24 11:25:18 how do you update u-boot? Sep 24 11:25:29 nyu: if you look below the battery, there you can find the productin date Sep 24 11:25:42 nyu: you must flash it with dfu-util Sep 24 11:25:52 but thats very straightforward. Sep 24 11:26:01 beni_: yeah, but where do I get the images from? Sep 24 11:26:39 20080603 Sep 24 11:27:16 beni_ is the suspend still acting up? Sep 24 11:28:09 beni_: the instructions in www.openmoko.org suggest that I simply flash om2008 without touching the bootloader Sep 24 11:29:28 nyu: http://downloads.openmoko.org/daily/gta02v5_and_up-u-boot.bin Sep 24 11:29:30 try that Sep 24 11:29:45 do I _really_ want to flash things from a directory named "daily" ? Sep 24 11:29:45 this is th latest uboot build from tonight Sep 24 11:30:02 as far as i know, uboot is not touched that often. Sep 24 11:30:13 can one recover from a broken uboot flash? Sep 24 11:30:18 <[df]> nyu: the stock uboot worked fine for me with 2008.9 Sep 24 11:30:21 some months ago i nearly flashed uboot daily and never got a problem Sep 24 11:30:22 without devel board Sep 24 11:30:34 Daramarak: yes, manual suspend works fine Sep 24 11:30:36 [df]: which production date? Sep 24 11:30:43 <[df]> hang on... Sep 24 11:31:11 Daramarak: it just looks like if my FR woke up tonight and freezed somewhere in the morning Sep 24 11:31:33 Daramarak: it is okay that it didnt reenter suspend since i deactivated that. Sep 24 11:31:54 <[df]> you can recover a broken uboot on the freerunner without a debug board, apparently Sep 24 11:32:00 <[df]> there's a failsafe in NOR Sep 24 11:32:09 GPS is deactivated if the phone suspends, which is very.... not so nice if you do GPS tracking frequently. so i suspend manually. Sep 24 11:32:12 <[df]> (I haven't tried though) Sep 24 11:32:29 <[df]> production date is 2008 07 22 Sep 24 11:32:34 [df]: its just booting into NOR and flashing NAND from there. Sep 24 11:32:55 <[df]> ah right, which is how you flash it anyway? Sep 24 11:33:02 [df]: its no difference in flashing uboot, except that you must press different buttons to turn the device on. Sep 24 11:33:07 <[df]> cool Sep 24 11:33:28 beni_ The FR is a very intelligent device, who knows what it is doing while you are asleep :) Sep 24 11:34:01 Daramarak: i hope nothing i am not aware of. but since it has no SIM card inserted and there is no WLAN around, it at least cant phone home. Sep 24 11:34:07 i hope so.... Sep 24 11:34:20 maybe there is some sort of GPS-tunnel where it watches porn at night... Sep 24 11:34:26 [df]: kay, no reason to risk it.. Sep 24 11:35:56 beni_: It hacks some emergency line, uses GPRS through it, and releases a DOS attack on M$ Sep 24 11:38:35 Daramarak: :D Sep 24 11:38:53 Daramarak: so that is why the battry is out in the morning Sep 24 11:39:38 * mwester-trip is impressed by the imagination of openmoko-ers Sep 24 11:39:40 Battery life is very much a work in progress. Suspend works for some people in some images on freerunner, leading to >24h suspend times. It looks plausible from various sources of information and testing that 3-5 hours of talk time, 20h of mp3 playing, and a week of standby should be possible. Sep 24 11:40:15 * mwester-trip suspects that SpeedEvil has a large document of FAQ responses from which he can cut and paste ;) :D Sep 24 11:40:25 max_posedon: hes a bot i think Sep 24 11:40:41 :P Sep 24 11:40:48 beni_: How does that make you feel? Sep 24 11:40:54 SpeedEvil: ~botsnack Sep 24 11:40:56 :p Sep 24 11:41:16 * SpeedEvil eats mwester-trip's sole. Sep 24 11:41:17 beni_, what you want from me?) Sep 24 11:41:36 * mwester-trip looks at his damaged shoes... Sep 24 11:41:40 with suspend i got about 3 days recently, but that was at FSO Sep 24 11:41:46 max_posedon: sorry, meant mwester Sep 24 11:41:53 just typed m Sep 24 11:42:25 SpeedEvil: Is it because 3 5 hours of talk time 20h of mp3 playing and a week of standby should be possible that you came to me? Sep 24 11:43:45 for me it's strange, i did use FDOM (so Om2008.8) for a week without any problem, but now it won't goes to sleep properly Sep 24 11:45:14 Much of the battery stuff is not finished yet. Sep 24 11:45:39 * SpeedEvil looks at the king honey-producing-insect. Sep 24 11:46:12 is there a usable mediaplayer (for listening to mp3) available yet? Sep 24 11:47:10 * BDo is about to think that ogg playback should be easier Sep 24 11:47:35 ogg IIRC takes more CPU Sep 24 11:47:44 mp3 takes 18% of GTA01 at minimum for 128K Sep 24 11:49:19 beni_: mplayer ... Sep 24 11:49:34 hi Sep 24 11:50:06 anyone know where the freerunner schematic and pcb layout files are hosted? all I found were the schematic pdf's and CAD for the enclosure Sep 24 11:50:38 I don't think they are available. Sep 24 11:50:47 Only the PDF and CAD Sep 24 11:50:52 I'd like to be wrong. Sep 24 11:51:29 so I'd have to recapture and do a new layout from scratch? Sep 24 11:52:01 I've finally built asu image for om-gta01 and flashed my qemu with it Sep 24 11:52:09 However the kernel don't start Sep 24 11:52:15 l: there may also be copyright issues with that. I'm unsure. Sep 24 11:53:05 maybe I'll have to start an OpenerMoko project ? Sep 24 11:53:11 I've got the correct NAND boot menu but when I select "Boot", it checks the kernel image (ok) then writes "Loading kernel image" and reboots Sep 24 11:53:15 Maybe. Sep 24 11:53:33 l: have you done any electtronics design before? Sep 24 11:53:39 oh well, too good to be true Sep 24 11:53:48 30+ years Sep 24 11:53:57 L84supper: bga/... ? Sep 24 11:54:11 L84supper: one problem may be getting the bits. Sep 24 11:54:20 yup bga, and tab bonding Sep 24 11:55:28 Need to get to a fair number to approach the cost of the released device of course. Sep 24 11:55:48 maybe integrate http://beagleboard.org/ design into openermoko or use freescale imx, would make the graphics issues easier Sep 24 11:57:12 Gets really ratehr complex once you get away from 'wouldn't it be nice' type designs :) Sep 24 11:57:21 beni_: for a mediplayer you could try pythm who used mplayer in the background Sep 24 11:57:29 China sells over 8 million cell phones per month, India not far behind Sep 24 11:57:44 beni_: it's just slow for some manipulation but usable even with finger Sep 24 12:02:31 does someone had this problem too ? Sep 24 12:02:58 becjone: is there some ipkg? i dont want to compile this manually this time. Sep 24 12:04:01 is there a mean to get more informations about the failure of the kernel loading ???? Sep 24 12:04:23 becjone: found it Sep 24 12:07:31 becjone: pythm aborts with error Sep 24 12:07:32 :( Sep 24 12:07:35 ptitjes: yes if you have a debug board Sep 24 12:07:39 NameError: name 'init' is not defined Sep 24 12:07:47 beni_: change rep to it Sep 24 12:08:03 beni_: and witch version did you tried ? Sep 24 12:08:16 ooops which Sep 24 12:09:21 beni_: i think i installed from http://projects.openmoko.org/frs/download.php/390/pythm_0.5_armv4t.ipk Sep 24 12:10:27 becjone: opkg install http://projects.openmoko.org/frs/download.php/390/pythm_0.5_armv4t.ipk Sep 24 12:10:31 thats the line Sep 24 12:10:42 the same you got Sep 24 12:11:19 strange Sep 24 12:11:25 looks like some dependancy problem Sep 24 12:11:33 do i need some libs? Sep 24 12:11:48 beni_: i dont remember if i did tried something manualy Sep 24 12:25:11 mwester :) Sep 24 12:26:43 hm, the topic is fairly outdated. Sep 24 12:26:49 GPS is solved long ago Sep 24 12:27:06 and Keyboard should be also well known since short after 2008.8 release Sep 24 12:27:29 but new users still recive FR with 2007) Sep 24 12:27:51 ah really? thought 2008 will be shipped now. Sep 24 12:29:53 Wouldn't it be great if nothing shipped with the freerunner? :P Sep 24 12:31:39 No, it is bad when you can't test device in shop. Sep 24 12:32:17 ...where did you find a freerunner in a shop? ;) Sep 24 12:33:34 in Poland, in official distibutor, ( http://www.mobilesolutions.pl/ ) Sep 24 12:33:56 extualy, I even come from Belarus, to Poland and buy device there. Sep 24 12:35:28 naughty leinirs Sep 24 12:35:56 we likeses them >:) Sep 24 12:36:49 beni_: the keyboard might be known to most of us on here but we still get people coming in and asking about the pin prompt :) Sep 24 12:36:54 *giggles* :) Sep 24 12:46:44 hi, do openmoko platform have support for inotify-tools, Sep 24 12:48:50 jitu3485: inotify is nothing hardware related i think Sep 24 12:49:09 lindi-, yes Sep 24 12:49:56 which browser do you guys use on your phones?

Sep 24 15:36:24 for the last milestone andy's branch had broken suspend, stable was ok Sep 24 15:36:27 Raster, your clock app better not suck as much as the qtopia one. Sep 24 15:36:31 izzyb: I do Sep 24 15:36:34 heh Sep 24 15:36:53 izzyb: but I just installed debian, so this might change ;-) Sep 24 15:36:54 <[df]> I think I'll have to give qtopia a try Sep 24 15:37:02 Dave: dude... u'd like it Sep 24 15:37:03 :) Sep 24 15:37:05 qtopia looks stable Sep 24 15:37:08 Good shit!

Sep 24 15:37:17 nyu: qtopia has been stable for me Sep 24 15:37:33 There is always much anticipation and excitement surrounding raster's releases. Sep 24 15:37:58 raster, where do you have the sources for your at replacement? Sep 24 15:38:17 debian uses FSO stack, right? Sep 24 15:38:17 shoragan: in e's svn Sep 24 15:38:25 shoragan: TMP/st/alarm/ Sep 24 15:38:26 k Sep 24 15:38:28 nice Sep 24 15:38:29 i called it "wake" Sep 24 15:38:31 waked Sep 24 15:38:35 har Sep 24 15:38:35 I can't dial using that. when I press '9' I get two of them Sep 24 15:38:38 it runs as the user not root so its a session bus Sep 24 15:38:45 ooh la la Sep 24 15:38:50 it unfortunatelyt has no way to gain root privde to do rtc stuff Sep 24 15:38:57 so it works only because oe/om uses root Sep 24 15:38:59 oh well, it's still cool Sep 24 15:39:02 but i can fix that Sep 24 15:39:57 * sicu convinces raster to do some videos of it... Sep 24 15:40:07 hi all, is there a method to edit the devtools menu? Sep 24 15:40:07 nyu: You get two 9s when you press 9 in zhone? Sep 24 15:40:13 more freerunner porn?

Sep 24 15:41:47 If it happens 100% of the time people will give up & use something else Sep 24 15:41:49 gawd, that takes me back to my OS class Sep 24 15:41:56 80% and you can string them along for ages Sep 24 15:42:00 wurp2|working: yep Sep 24 15:42:09 nyu: :-( Sep 24 15:42:18 fso has been nothing but good for me Sep 24 15:42:22 But I've only run ms 1 :-) Sep 24 15:42:23 where we'd get a DIFFERENT trap frame error, only 60% of the time for one and 40% of the time for the other Sep 24 15:42:28 and they overlapped Sep 24 15:42:29 haha Sep 24 15:42:47 Those are the funnest Sep 24 15:42:51 wurp, I was about to say...

Sep 24 16:34:26 1 Sep 24 16:34:30 its a generic clock widget Sep 24 16:34:42 can be editable (to set the alarm time) Sep 24 16:34:45 or just display time Sep 24 16:34:50 (thus it sits and flips) Sep 24 16:34:56 animation is all done in edje theme Sep 24 16:35:06 in fact the layout is too Sep 24 16:35:19 its got an abstract interface for talking to the widget code Sep 24 16:37:28 hm, illume's layout adapts to screensize very nicely :) Sep 24 16:37:36 :) Sep 24 16:37:44 elcome to my idea of scalable Sep 24 16:37:44 should make a very usable keyboard when rotating to landscape mode Sep 24 16:37:47 not just scale everything Sep 24 16:37:48 :) Sep 24 16:37:52 scale selectively the bits u want Sep 24 16:37:58 keep the pixel-perfectness as well Sep 24 16:38:03 yeah Sep 24 16:38:07 and yes- works landscape too etc. Sep 24 16:38:07 looks really nice Sep 24 16:38:34 i only miss this rubber-banding when doing the scrolling in the applications list ;) Sep 24 16:38:57 rubber banding?

Guess it could be just the adapter not working Sep 24 17:49:16 its a stere 2.5 to 3.5 adaptor Sep 24 17:53:58 2008.9 goes to sleep, how do i wake it? a power button press doesnt seem to do it Sep 24 17:54:43 I've been experiencing the same problem Sep 24 17:55:52 try calling it ;) Sep 24 17:56:26 yooo hoooo! Sep 24 17:56:58 Im using a "dead" sim card in the freerunner at the Sep 24 17:57:06 time Sep 24 17:57:09 ive been using no sim card Sep 24 17:57:37 ? I dind't actually know it could run without a sim card :P Sep 24 17:57:55 it does Sep 24 17:58:03 seems fair Sep 24 17:58:59 I've installed qtopia in an effort to get stable performance from my FR, but It still isn't working for me. After flashing it, I was able to dial out, but had a dialing error and got an automated message from the phone company. I haven't been able to make a call since. I've rebooted it a couple of times, and even changed sim cards but it just doesn't want to work for me. I'm starting to think I have a bad unit, problem with my sim Sep 24 17:58:59 card or problem with my carrier. Any thoughts? Sep 24 17:59:03 I've just disabled suspend, as I have no need for it when not using it as a phone Sep 24 17:59:51 bove: is that a configuration option? Sep 24 18:00:14 go to settings and press suspend Sep 24 18:00:23 izzyb: i have yet to get a usable phone from 2007.x 2008.x or FSO. Sep 24 18:01:27 I've tried 2008.8 and .9, fdom, and now qtopia Sep 24 18:01:39 id be happy with a curses interface if it could reliably make and take calls. Sep 24 18:02:14 TAsn: i think i figured out #151! Sep 24 18:02:18 :) Sep 24 18:02:46 izzyb, and how were they? Sep 24 18:02:48 :p Sep 24 18:04:12 Lindi, what's going on? Sep 24 18:04:19 lindi-, ?! how ;] Sep 24 18:04:25 HOW!? WHAT!? WHERE!? Sep 24 18:04:31 Omg Tasn Sep 24 18:04:46 Dave, OMG!!! Sep 24 18:04:52 ONEONEONE Sep 24 18:04:57 lindi-, what is it?! ;] Sep 24 18:05:06 Didn't see much difference between 2008.8 and .9, fdom is basicly the same but with more apps installed. qtopia is noticeably more polished looking. But non of them seem to make the device usable :( Sep 24 18:05:27 I think i just forgot the voice distortion app on ;] Sep 24 18:05:47 next time im going on a killing spree i will surely remember leaving a note to turn that off ;] Sep 24 18:05:56 bah Sep 24 18:06:28 lindi-, just saw your comment Sep 24 18:06:36 sounds interesting enough. Sep 24 18:06:46 got anywhere to read from about AT commands? Sep 24 18:07:03 gaga Sep 24 18:07:21 sorry, wrong window Sep 24 18:08:47 bove: Is it the motorola adapter? Sep 24 18:09:45 well, its a brandless "Home Cinema 2.5 to 3.5 stereo adapter" bought from a gadget store Sep 24 18:10:09 Is this device actually usable as a phone? ie does it reliably make and receive phone calls for anyone? Sep 24 18:10:43 or is it just a toy for hacking on? Sep 24 18:11:35 TAsn: the command is proprietary TI command Sep 24 18:11:45 TAsn: i don't think there are any official specs we could see Sep 24 18:11:57 TAsn: can you verify if it fixes the voice issue for you? Sep 24 18:12:24 i can, though not now ;[ Sep 24 18:12:36 i have to go soon and i promised my brother i will finish something for him. Sep 24 18:12:44 though by tomorrow i think i will have time to confirm. Sep 24 18:12:48 thanks a lot. Sep 24 18:13:02 izzyb: yes, it's also a phone Sep 24 18:13:02 how should i test it? run mickey's terminal? Sep 24 18:14:07 k, so then I should be able to reliably make and receive calls with it. so what tests can I use to verify if my problem is software or hardware? Sep 24 18:14:27 at this point I'm starting to think I have a bad unit and am considering getting it replaced Sep 24 18:15:05 but I don't want to wast a bunch of peoples time and resources if its just a luser error on my part Sep 24 18:16:39 TAsn: just change frameworkd to use the command Sep 24 18:17:13 i see. Sep 24 18:17:22 that's the file? Sep 24 18:17:28 grep is running :) Sep 24 18:17:44 i'm now planning to migrate to work as non-root Sep 24 18:19:09 lindi-, that's too soon (i think) Sep 24 18:19:21 TASn: the AT codes are up on teh wiki: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo_1973_and_Neo_FreeRunner_gsm_modem Sep 24 18:19:33 zomg Sep 24 18:19:45 Someone should write a short story about the freerunner Sep 24 18:19:59 gregdude, nice! thanks. Sep 24 18:20:27 TAsn: why too soon? Sep 24 18:20:36 i already would benefit a lot from it Sep 24 18:20:47 lindi-, like what? Sep 24 18:21:01 TAsn, good luck with them, I had them on my mind all week with this code I'm hacking (up) now... Sep 24 18:21:18 ;] Sep 24 18:21:24 gregdude, what are you hacking anyway? Sep 24 18:22:40 TAsn, some code to record GSM tower (cell, signal, etc..) info together with GPS. Trying to find locations of GSM towers and use them to have quick GSM positioning.... Sep 24 18:22:59 gregdude, i see, cool ;] Sep 24 18:23:18 though i think the framework already supplies tower info, no need for AT commands. Sep 24 18:23:21 TAsn, Not very reliable, but usually within about 200m of the real position.... Sep 24 18:23:32 gregdude, i know about it. Sep 24 18:23:40 TAsn: like not getting warning in minimo Sep 24 18:23:46 used it in my no-gps nokia 6680 for a while. Sep 24 18:23:48 TAsn: not having to be so careful with commands Sep 24 18:23:52 lindi-, you get a warning? Sep 24 18:23:58 lindi-, being careful is a bitch. Sep 24 18:24:07 TAsn: being able to keep my private data in my home directory so that i can share my openmoko backups to rest of the internet Sep 24 18:24:24 TAsn: yeah minimo constantly shows a warning Sep 24 18:24:24 also letting someone play with your phone may result in a Sep 24 18:24:30 cd / && rm -rf * Sep 24 18:24:31 ;] Sep 24 18:24:33 TAsn: i only share the backups Sep 24 18:24:37 lindi-, i never saw one. Sep 24 18:24:57 but at the moment i don't know where programs write data Sep 24 18:24:59 lucky me i used the matchbox keyboard last time someone tried it. Sep 24 18:25:13 TAsn: so it's hard to reproduce bugs since i don't know exactly where the programs change things Sep 24 18:25:21 TAsn: some programs could edit /etc directly when run as root Sep 24 18:26:01 lindi-, that is correct. Sep 24 18:26:28 TAsn: and i would like to have my settings in .xsession and not some mysterious /etc/init.d/lindi-session :PP Sep 24 18:26:55 ;] Sep 24 18:27:36 where's the qtopia Profile directory? Sep 24 18:27:51 TAsn: this is what i mean :-) Sep 24 18:29:29 alsactl -f headset.state puts sound in the right channel only. no other states gives me anything Sep 24 18:30:57 TAsn: /usr/share/python-support/fso-frameworkd/framework/subsystems/ogsmd/modems/ti_calypso/channel.py: c.append( "%CBHZ=1" ) # home zone cell broadcast: enable Sep 24 18:31:04 zomg Sep 24 18:31:15 TAsn: says "dpkg -L fso-frameworkd|xargs grep CBHZ" Sep 24 18:31:20 and the sound is really thin like its a line signal or something Sep 24 18:33:56 lindi-, this might be the discussion leading to that CBHZ: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/openmoko-devel/2008/7/14/2467794/thread Sep 24 18:35:15 gregdude: hmm Sep 24 18:35:21 gregdude: do you have any insight knowledge on this? ;) Sep 24 18:35:54 lindi-, i'm sorrry, I cannot say I have.... Sep 24 18:36:45 gregdude: ok Sep 24 18:37:02 gregdude: since i don't understand how CBHZ could have anything to do with audio quality Sep 24 18:37:09 gregdude: but it is very audible difference here Sep 24 18:37:15 (yes, i made multiple test calls) Sep 24 18:38:07 than i was just a foo, sorry :) Sep 24 18:38:39 lindi, does it? Sep 24 18:38:45 what's the problem? Sep 24 18:38:51 Dave: fso bug #151 Sep 24 18:39:33 I take it that it's not particularly amusing? Sep 24 18:39:59 Dave: ? Sep 24 18:40:10 Cross-compiling qtopia-opensource-src <-- does this mean that I can run the Qtopia build on my linux box ? Sep 24 18:40:12 Dave: it's very difficult to understand what the other party is saying Sep 24 18:40:24 :( Sep 24 18:40:26 That's the worst. Sep 24 18:40:32 or when they don't supply enough info. Sep 24 18:42:04 Dave: who don't? Sep 24 18:44:24 :P Sep 24 18:44:35 haha you sound like one of the bug submitters now :P Sep 24 18:44:51 Dave: yes i am trying to fix it Sep 24 18:48:25 go go lindi! Sep 24 18:48:35 Dave: huh? Sep 24 18:48:46 edistar: how do you start your xfce? Sep 24 19:19:21 someone who use ubuntu having problem to reach internet from your FR connected to your comp via usb Sep 24 19:19:43 Would it be theoretically possible for the freerunner to run android? Sep 24 19:20:26 <[df]> theoretically, certainly Sep 24 19:20:48 howdy all Sep 24 19:20:52 hossi_, whats your problem? Sep 24 19:21:02 but no one have managed to do it yet? Sep 24 19:21:29 <[df]> is the android source even available yet? Sep 24 19:21:38 I have no idea :P Sep 24 19:22:04 no Sep 24 19:22:11 <[df]> tbh I've been a bit disappointed with the way android is being run Sep 24 19:22:14 well at least not free Sep 24 19:22:16 yeah Sep 24 19:22:26 mjr! Sep 24 19:22:28 <[df]> which is partly why I got a freerunner Sep 24 19:22:33 playya: I can't reach internet from my FR, I want to download packages. I managed to ssh to the phone via usb Sep 24 19:22:46 hossi_, have you edited the resolv.conf correctly? Sep 24 19:22:50 heh Sep 24 19:22:54 spydon, damn, you beat me :P Sep 24 19:22:58 so, I've got a bluetooth keyboard paired with qtopia, and hcidump shows signals, but typing doesn't show anything Sep 24 19:23:09 on the screen Sep 24 19:23:25 Dave, hehe, not often you gets beaten, huh? :P Sep 24 19:23:30 spydon: yes. I can't ping an ip-adress outside of my home LAN Sep 24 19:23:34 johnsu01: does it work on the console? Sep 24 19:23:41 spydon, indeed ;) Sep 24 19:23:45 hossi_, I had a lot of trouble getting my PC (Fedora9) to route traffic from my FreeRunner to my router. Check out a thread I created that has a solution that worked for me. http://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/597639/769289#target Sep 24 19:23:48 Dave: how would I check that? Sep 24 19:23:52 hossi_, but can you ping like google.se? Sep 24 19:23:58 <[df]> hossi_: have you set up masquerading on the ubuntu box? Sep 24 19:23:58 Dave: It does work paired with my laptop, so I know the keyboard itself works Sep 24 19:24:40 right right Sep 24 19:24:54 Does anyone besides be get the White-Screen-of-Death with 2008.9? Sep 24 19:24:58 spydon: can't ping outside of my home lan, domain names or ip-adress Sep 24 19:25:00 :D Sep 24 19:25:05 ah you "cant" I thought it said can :P Sep 24 19:25:36 spydon, do you have glasses? Sep 24 19:26:03 Dave, no, but I should maybe get a pair ^^ Sep 24 19:26:08 ;) Sep 24 19:26:22 hossi_, does that mean you are able to ping other devices in your LAN besides the PC connected to the FreeRunner? Sep 24 19:27:09 bamccaig: I can ping my router Sep 24 19:27:23 Dave: Yes, if I stop qpe, what I type appears on the screen Sep 24 19:27:26 from my phone Sep 24 19:27:52 hossi_, is your router IP showing up if you do cat /etc/resolv.conf ? Sep 24 19:27:57 Then I got nothin. :P Sep 24 19:28:41 spydon: in my FR or on the ubuntu box? Sep 24 19:28:41 <[df]> so you have fr <--> ubuntu pc <--> router? Sep 24 19:28:46 <[df]> and you can ping the router? Sep 24 19:28:56 hossi_, the FR Sep 24 19:29:22 [df]: hmm now i can't ping my router :p Sep 24 19:29:54 <[df]> are IP forwarding and masquerading set up on the ubuntu box? Sep 24 19:30:08 [df]: dunno, how do I check? Sep 24 19:30:29 <[df]> cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward Sep 24 19:30:32 <[df]> should be 1 Sep 24 19:31:07 [df]: yes, it say "1" Sep 24 19:31:16 <[df]> ok Sep 24 19:31:31 <[df]> now if you do iptables -t nat -L, what do you get? Sep 24 19:31:35 hossi_, that link I posted above has a serious of commands that worked to configure iptables for me... :-/ The Wiki instructions alone didn't work. Sep 24 19:32:11 * Dave spies on spydon Sep 24 19:32:27 hossi_, Mind you, it clears the iptables configuration first so if you actually have custom rules you probably wouldn't want to use it alone. Sep 24 19:32:42 I was about to say, you're running iptables actively on your freerunner? - What? Sep 24 19:33:04 What's next, someone trying to get SE working on their Freerunner. Sep 24 19:33:05 haha Sep 24 19:33:11 Dave: what's the problem? Sep 24 19:33:17 SE? Sep 24 19:33:22 <[df]> this is on the ubuntu box, not the freerunner Sep 24 19:33:25 as in selinux? Sep 24 19:33:27 yes Sep 24 19:33:28 Ah Sep 24 19:33:34 i'd very much like to run iptables on my phone Sep 24 19:33:48 Hehe, why shouldn't you have iptables on the phone? :P Sep 24 19:34:03 It seems like a good idea, really... Sep 24 19:34:08 bamccaig: should I add thoes ip-tables to the phone? Sep 24 19:34:10 maybe Sep 24 19:34:20 <[df]> quite, iptables is pretty lightweight compared to most userspace apps Sep 24 19:34:28 hossi, if you're the guy having usb networking problems, then no, presumably to your pc Sep 24 19:36:09 The point of configuring iptables is to tell Linux to forward packets from the Neo to your LAN so they will reach the Internet. That's what the iptables configuration is for. I haven't actually figured out iptables yet so somebody else will have to advise further. :P Sep 24 19:36:42 * [df] is happy to advise further if you need it :D Sep 24 19:37:38 I see on the Wiki that apparently dfu-utils doesn't play nice with 64-bit Linux... Am I going to have to install a 32-bit system? Sep 24 19:38:13 s/dfu-utils/dfu-util/ Sep 24 19:38:13 bamccaig meant: I see on the Wiki that apparently dfu-util doesn't play nice with 64-bit Linux... Am I going to have to install a 32-bit system? Sep 24 19:38:23 :P Sep 24 19:38:32 <[df]> woah, is that a bot Sep 24 19:38:35 bamccaig: chroot Sep 24 19:38:40 <[df]> s/bot/bot\?/ Sep 24 19:38:40 [df] meant: woah, is that a bot\? Sep 24 19:38:48 <[df]> awesome :) Sep 24 19:38:53 Whoa, it is!! :o Sep 24 19:39:04 ugggggggggggh Sep 24 19:39:06 I thought it was a guy and I had beaten him... Damn :-[ Sep 24 19:39:07 fuck Sep 24 19:39:35 First of all, why would ANYBODY be installing a 64bit linux onto the freerunner? Sep 24 19:39:50 <[df]> er, you don't run dfu-util on the freerunner Sep 24 19:39:50 bamccaig: no way of troubleshooting so one can be sure it's the iptables who's not working Sep 24 19:39:58 <[df]> you run it on the box you're using to flash the freerunner Sep 24 19:39:59 Dave, Not onto the FreeRunner... My desktop PC. Sep 24 19:40:00 Dave: it doesn't run on the freerunner. he means a linux desktop. Sep 24 19:40:05 bamccaig: it works for me Sep 24 19:40:13 bamccaig: on 64-bit. I think that warning is stale. Sep 24 19:40:58 cjb, well, OBVIOUSLY Sep 24 19:41:01 ¬_¬ Sep 24 19:41:07 cjb, some people are daft, don't blame me :) Sep 24 19:41:17 also a tad bit insane :P Sep 24 19:41:20 Good to hear.. I guess I'll give it a try... :-X I just got my FreeRunner a few weeks ago and haven't really had time to do anything more than explore the default GUI. Sep 24 19:41:26 On the flyer there is a picture of an installer running on the freerunner. How do I start/install the installer? Sep 24 19:41:50 bamccaig: if you're worried about it not working, don't flash uboot with it :) Sep 24 19:41:54 (the others are all recoverable.) Sep 24 19:41:58 cjb, give us your softwares! Sep 24 19:43:10 Isn't uboot recoverable too in the NAND? :-/ I thought everything in the NAND was recoverable through just USB by booting the NOR... Sep 24 19:43:26 <[df]> yes, on the freerunner Sep 24 19:44:03 Even though I'm a n00b, I was considering buying a dboard to see what I can learn and so that I could play with the NOR too. ^^ Probably should hold off on that, I guess. Sep 24 19:44:18 oh yeah, that's true. Sep 24 19:44:47 cjb, so I wrote a program to try to remotely control the power on the freerunner Sep 24 19:44:50 <[df]> I'm taking the view that there's a hell of a lot of playing around I can do without a debug board, so I don't feel the need to invest in one for now Sep 24 19:45:12 [df]: yep Sep 24 19:45:24 and I've got six running it in the background... -- I accidentally sent a stray bcast while testing... now I have to reboot all of them :D Sep 24 19:45:29 what a pain ;) Sep 24 19:45:47 Dave: cool. how does it do that? Sep 24 19:46:14 Well, it might not have many practical uses, but I thought it might be a neat idea to try Sep 24 19:46:28 it just listens and carries out my bidding Sep 24 19:46:30 ;) Sep 24 19:47:03 originally I had it making syscalls, but they weren't all the same and some were flaky, so for some commands I just manually manipulate the devices Sep 24 19:47:16 I mean, it's not like the phone's suspend works well on its own, anyway. Sep 24 19:47:50 <[df]> meh, I've just tried a cool in the latest qtopia snapshot and had both echo and gsm buzz :( Sep 24 19:47:55 <[df]> s/cool/call/ Sep 24 19:47:56 [df] meant: meh, I've just tried a call in the latest qtopia snapshot and had both echo and gsm buzz :( Sep 24 19:48:08 ouch! Sep 24 19:48:18 for a second there, I thought apt might have a freerunner of her own ;) Sep 24 19:48:20 <[df]> well, the person on the other end had echo Sep 24 19:48:30 df, that's terrible! Sep 24 19:48:40 MORE BUGREPORTS! Sep 24 19:48:53 <[df]> well I think they're both bugs that have been reported Sep 24 19:49:05 <[df]> but I heard the echo had been fixed Sep 24 19:49:35 SUPPOSEDLY Sep 24 19:49:42 Wasn't the WSoD supposedly fixed as well? Sep 24 19:49:58 now moving to fso bug #116 :P Sep 24 19:50:15 :P Sep 24 19:50:19 go lindi, go! Sep 24 19:50:30 no i mean #140 Sep 24 19:50:52 lindi, you suck at counting :P Sep 24 19:50:59 everyone here should fix one bug a day Sep 24 19:51:24 a bug a day, keeps the developers at bay ;p Sep 24 19:51:33 <[df]> keeps the users at bay, surely? Sep 24 19:51:39 either that, or underpaid! Sep 24 19:51:40 :D Sep 24 19:51:51 TAsn: you seemed to have reported #140 too Sep 24 19:51:53 The WSoD was fixed? Sep 24 19:52:02 It's a trap. Sep 24 19:52:40 TAsn: thanks for reporting the bug Sep 24 19:52:45 lindi-, not sure i know what you mean Sep 24 19:52:52 i may have just confirmed, let me check. Sep 24 19:52:58 lindi-, thank you for solving it ;] Sep 24 19:53:03 TAsn: framework.log (16.2 kB) - added by tasn on 09/20/08 22:57:08. Sep 24 19:53:13 that's just a confirmation Sep 24 19:53:17 i didn't report ;] Sep 24 19:53:47 ok, i took a peek at apt-get source ppp but it's not so simple as i would have hoped Sep 24 19:53:52 Dave: been watching bug #1841 for a while now and there doesn't seem to be much activity on the wsod... Sep 24 19:54:32 TAsn: pap-secrets has just * * "" * which sounds odd Sep 24 19:54:54 lindi-, not all require a pass. Sep 24 19:55:05 *all carriers Sep 24 19:55:13 TAsn: but i specified "x" Sep 24 19:55:13 i also tried with and without Sep 24 19:55:19 TAsn: so why is frameworkd not using it? Sep 24 19:55:37 lindi-, framwork actually doesn't use the files in Sep 24 19:55:41 /etc/ppp Sep 24 19:55:43 at all Sep 24 19:55:45 TAsn: but it generates them Sep 24 19:55:51 no it doesn't Sep 24 19:55:54 it does Sep 24 19:55:56 it generates files in Sep 24 19:55:59 tmp Sep 24 19:56:00 instead. Sep 24 19:56:06 PPP_PAP_SECRETS_FILENAME = "/etc/ppp/pap-secrets" Sep 24 19:56:10 says frameworkd source code Sep 24 19:56:33 lindi-, really?! i think they were using a different file. Sep 24 19:56:36 PPP_DAEMON_SETUP[PPP_PAP_SECRETS_FILENAME] = '* * "%s" *\n' % '' Sep 24 19:56:45 check /tmp Sep 24 19:56:48 lindi-, weird. Sep 24 19:57:26 PPP_CONNECT_CHAT_FILENAME = "/var/tmp/ogsmd/gprs-connect-chat" Sep 24 19:57:26 we have Sep 24 19:57:26 but no secrets Sep 24 19:57:43 TAsn: it doesn't tell pppd about anything else in /tmp either so how could pppd find it? Sep 24 19:58:48 weird. Sep 24 19:58:53 i thought it does. Sep 24 19:59:00 try ps aux | grep ppp Sep 24 19:59:04 while trying to connect Sep 24 19:59:06 fortunately i have time to read the source :) Sep 24 19:59:10 i think i saw some more files ;] Sep 24 19:59:13 lindi-, hehe you do ;] Sep 24 19:59:18 ['/usr/sbin/pppd', '/dev/pts/5', 'connect', '/var/tmp/ogsmd/gprs-connect-chat', 'disconnect', '/var/tmp/ogsmd/gprs-dis\ Sep 24 19:59:21 connect-chat', '115200', 'nodetach', 'crtscts', 'defaultroute', 'debug', 'holdoff', '3', 'ipcp-accept-local', 'ktune', 'lcp-echo-failure', '8', 'lcp-echo-interval', '10\ Sep 24 19:59:24 ', 'ipcp-max-configure', '32', 'lock', 'noauth', 'noipdefault', 'novj', 'novjccomp', 'proxyarp', 'replacedefaultroute', 'usepeerdns', 'user', '"x"'] Sep 24 19:59:29 oh snaps Sep 24 19:59:31 okie. Sep 24 19:59:38 having ppp problems? Sep 24 19:59:55 hmmmm, '"x"' is interesting Sep 24 20:00:06 Dave: #140 is about them Sep 24 20:00:10 oh! Sep 24 20:00:16 I don't seem to have much problem with mine... Sep 24 20:00:32 it can be finicky at times Sep 24 20:00:44 but for the most part it's reliable... slow, but reliable Sep 24 20:01:04 then again, this is on an earlier 2007 release :P Sep 24 20:01:39 yep something was just broken in later frameworkd version Sep 24 20:03:34 lindi, ah, disappointing :( Sep 24 20:03:41 this backwards development is so harsh Sep 24 20:03:53 does anyone know if the opkg signature-check can be deactivated? Sep 24 20:05:23 <[df]> has anyone had an issue with 2007.2 and qtopia regularly dropping out from the network? Sep 24 20:05:36 <[df]> I'm pretty certain it's software, because when it comes back it has full signal Sep 24 20:05:58 <[df]> and I don't think it happened with 2008.9, although possibly that just didn't announce it as loudly Sep 24 20:08:35 [df]: just look what it talks with gsm chip Sep 24 20:09:37 giggleloop, nope Sep 24 20:09:43 [df]: That is a common problem Sep 24 20:09:59 I wrote a WRAPPER around opkg, because that, and it's other errors are so pointless, annoying, and unhelpful to the new user! Sep 24 20:10:08 fucking opkg maintainers :D Sep 24 20:10:24 [df]: There was speculation recently between mickey|zzZZzz and mwester_ that the cell tower tells the phone to switch towers Sep 24 20:10:55 [df]: but lots of people have the issue of the phone persistently dropping off network once a minute or more, then reacquiring Sep 24 20:10:58 <[df]> is it a common problem with all distros then or just certain ones? Sep 24 20:11:15 And it seems to go away for a few days, and come back. Sep 24 20:11:36 [df]: The drop is happening down in the gsm, I think Sep 24 20:11:52 [df]: Some distros handle getting back on the network much better than others, though Sep 24 20:12:40 In case that wasn't clear, since it happens down in the gsm, all distros have the same issue Sep 24 20:12:50 but it is much less of an issue for some than others Sep 24 20:13:04 seems to be fxed in qtopia 4.4, at least for me :) Sep 24 20:13:14 <[df]> so is it a hardware issue that can be worked around? Sep 24 20:13:18 lpotter: You don't drop off the network at all? Sep 24 20:13:19 hossi_, are you from sweden? Sep 24 20:13:25 Dave: other errors? ouch... didn't find those yet... Sep 24 20:13:29 wurp2|working: not anymore Sep 24 20:13:41 lpotter: From what I heard, the problem would spontaneously go away for days at a time, then come back Sep 24 20:13:48 it used to, quite often. but only on hte freerunner Sep 24 20:13:54 lpotter: So where's my 4.4 download? Sep 24 20:13:57 spydon: yes Sep 24 20:14:05 lpotter: Yeah, the problem is much less bad for me on gta01 than what I hear about the FR Sep 24 20:14:07 wurp2|working: its been many weeks since I have seen this problem Sep 24 20:14:13 hossi_, are you a member of the pirate party? Sep 24 20:14:16 But mwester_ said he had the issue on several gta01s too Sep 24 20:14:23 lpotter: Kick ass! :-) Sep 24 20:14:35 lpotter: So where's my 4.4 download? Sep 24 20:14:51 look at QFuture Sep 24 20:14:59 :) Sep 24 20:15:04 yarr Sep 24 20:15:07 sorry. not yet. soon Sep 24 20:15:11 spydon: I'm actually the third memberb or pirate party in sweden :) Sep 24 20:15:16 *of Sep 24 20:15:24 hossi_, ah then I know where I have seen your nick before Sep 24 20:15:29 hossi_, awesome! Sep 24 20:15:44 my 3 year old son like to be a pirate... ARGGG! Sep 24 20:16:06 sometimes he is a grumpy pirate Sep 24 20:16:08 lpotter: You implemented QFuture to help deal with this dropping problem? Is it some commands that are being sent before the gsm is ready? Sep 24 20:16:14 TAsn: #140 fixed :) Sep 24 20:16:16 yeah tell him to join our next demonstration lpotter ;) Sep 24 20:16:31 wurp2|working: heh.. no, I was jus tbeing funny Sep 24 20:16:37 lindi-, what?! how? Sep 24 20:16:38 kthx ;-) Sep 24 20:17:00 wurp2|working: but I do think some gsm init commands were compounding the problem Sep 24 20:17:08 spydon: do you have any idea what's the name of the package if you want to install the terminal via opkg? Sep 24 20:17:17 lpotter: The problem is that I don't have a way to set a callback to be informed when this operation completes Sep 24 20:17:28 hossi_, openmoko-terminal2 I think Sep 24 20:17:38 I don't want to monitor all events that happen in the community list :-) Sep 24 20:17:52 wurp2|working: I'm the callback function Sep 24 20:18:23 brokenmoko Sep 24 20:18:29 lpotter :) Sep 24 20:18:32 TAsn: see bug report soon Sep 24 20:18:42 Who you gonna call? Sep 24 20:18:53 lindi-, ;] Sep 24 20:22:39 TAsn: now at http://trac.freesmartphone.org/ticket/140 Sep 24 20:23:59 lindi-, haha, thanks, i will test that soon ;] Sep 24 20:24:17 * lindi- wants more bugs to squash :) Sep 24 20:25:10 lindi-: a walk on a swamp? ;) Sep 24 20:25:22 <[df]> you could stop my phone dropping off the network? Sep 24 20:26:00 [df]: gsmd? Sep 24 20:26:49 <[df]> er, I don't know... it happens with 2007.2 and qtopia Sep 24 20:27:30 [df]: hmm? 2007.2 uses gsmd i think Sep 24 20:27:34 [df]: ps axuf? Sep 24 20:28:47 I've been wondering if it's possible to create non-root users and add passwords for all users? :-/ (Running OM 2007.2 or 2008.8) Sep 24 20:30:07 I don't know how to start he nodm x a way that it is reassigned to a user. Sep 24 20:30:26 should check how a general desktop does that. Sep 24 20:30:44 Michael! :) Ferenc here Sep 24 20:30:54 <[df]> lindi-: nope, apparently not using gsmd currently (on qtopia) Sep 24 20:31:29 <[df]> is this a problem that may be fixed in 2008 then? Sep 24 20:32:49 [df]: can you please check the qtopia sources? just grep for ATD or something Sep 24 20:33:29 <[df]> so what AT command am I looking for? Sep 24 20:38:24 How can I chack what version of the OM is installed on my new freerunner. Sep 24 20:38:47 <[df]> actually I'm having trouble finding the qtopia source :( Sep 24 20:39:03 <[df]> there's a link to an ftp dir on the trolltech site which is empty Sep 24 20:39:46 lesouvage: Settings -> System info ? Sep 24 20:39:46 <[df]> lesouvage_: it ships with 2007.2 afaik Sep 24 20:40:04 ah, hm, ok, my idea works only on 2008.x :) Sep 24 20:40:08 [df]: ftp://ftp.trolltech.com:21/qtopia/source Sep 24 20:40:22 cat /etc/om-version ? Sep 24 20:40:34 LionKMP: stupid question maybe, but where am I suppose to find this option? Sep 24 20:41:18 lesouvage: it ships with 2007.2 so if you didn't flash another, it's that. Sep 24 20:41:32 lesouvage: sorry, my idea assumed you have 2008.8. :-D Sep 24 20:42:09 :D Sep 24 20:42:48 <[df]> lpotter: that's got 4.3.2, any idea if 4.3.3 is available? Sep 24 20:43:04 lesouvage: that's 2007.2 : http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Image:Openmoko2007.2_home_screen.png Sep 24 20:43:11 [df]: there is also this http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Qtopia Sep 24 20:43:24 sometimes it's without the big clock. Sep 24 20:43:47 But isn't there a package manager with a front end that i can use to add packages. I saw an installer option on one of the pictures. I know this phone is not for the faint of hard but adding some basic aps can't be that hard I suppose? Sep 24 20:44:12 <[df]> the graphical installer is on 2008 Sep 24 20:44:20 lesouvage: I think you need this first: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Getting_Started_with_your_Neo_FreeRunner Sep 24 20:44:35 hi all, when i start om-messages it crashes. there are a few messages in te inbox. any idea what i can do about it ? Sep 24 20:44:59 yes, and then I would upgrade to 2008.8 (by flashing a the version, it's also detailed in getting started) Sep 24 20:45:05 2008.9 Sep 24 20:45:22 LionKMP: thanks for the pointer. I hope I will return a little bit wiser Sep 24 20:45:34 :) Sep 24 20:45:47 [df]: 4.3.3 has not been released Sep 24 20:48:33 <[df]> lpotter: er, http://www.qtopia.net/modules/mydownloads/viewcat.php?cid=6 suggests it has? Sep 24 20:48:41 <[df]> I'm pretty certain it's what I'm running... Sep 24 20:50:16 <[df]> I think maybe the getting started page could make it clearer that the phone ships with what is effectively an obsolete distro and you probably want to flash it straight away Sep 24 20:58:10 [df]: how can you do development without source? Sep 24 20:59:23 <[df]> I don't develop qtopia Sep 24 20:59:23 It's pretty clear when you start using the shipped with distro. ;) Sep 24 20:59:27 <[df]> I only installed it today Sep 24 21:08:38 n00b question: I just downloaded the .tar.gz of the rootfs and splash for 2008.9. Does dfu-util use the .tar.gz or do I need to extract it or something? :-X I extracted the rootfs only to find a Linux directory tree, which doesn't seem right. :P Sep 24 21:09:12 aw, why not downloaded the jffs2 then have to do nothing. Sep 24 21:09:15 for flashing with dfu-util, you want a jffs2 image, which should be downloadable alongside Sep 24 21:09:20 I'm a little bit confused. Can somebody tells me what files I need fro the list on http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.9/ to update my freerunner. I plan to use OpenMoko flasher for macosx. Should I load all the available files in this dir? (bin, tar.gz and jffs2 files) FunnyI just typed the same question. Sep 24 21:09:21 which gudie did you follow? Sep 24 21:09:35 (or you can make the image from the tar archive yourself, of course, but that's more complicated) Sep 24 21:11:22 Ah, I figured it was along those lines. :( Back to downloading. :) Sep 24 21:12:07 bamccaig: was the Download guide confusing? (I work on the documentation) Sep 24 21:13:23 So I need the jffs2 file for the filesystem and the .bin file for the kernel to do the update? Sep 24 21:13:35 yes Sep 24 21:14:04 LianKMP: thanks ! Sep 24 21:15:14 * bamccaig saw "The system is going down for halt" message in a terminal and panicked before realizing it was his ssh session with his Neo. Sep 24 21:16:56 Any way to quit application, and not to kill it through terminal? Sep 24 21:17:23 zogg_: which distro? Sep 24 21:17:34 ASU Sep 24 21:17:49 lets say, tangogps Sep 24 21:17:56 unfold top menu, there will be 'remove' on lower left of it Sep 24 21:18:09 kill is quit, isn't it? (with not using -9 of course) Sep 24 21:19:06 oh, sweet. Funny tho, never actually noticed that 'qwerty' label area changes :)) Sep 24 21:23:34 LionKMP: I wouldn't say it was confusing... I've been through much of this before so I'm skimming now and probably missing stuff... I didn't see anything about the .tar.gz versus .jffs2 this time around. I seem to recall reading about it the first time though. :-X Sep 24 21:24:13 bamccaig: yep, it was there earlier, but the download page changes a lot :-p Sep 24 21:26:49 Ahh!! I shutdown my FreeRunner with `shutdown -P now' over SSH and now it is spewing the same lines into the terminal... :-X Sep 24 21:31:39 Downloading OM2008.9 takes a lot of time. It seems that I'm not the only one upgrading . (30 mb takes halve an hour) Sep 24 21:32:17 But the screendumps look very promissing, so I guess it will worth the waiting. Sep 24 21:32:52 definitely :) Sep 24 21:33:24 clear Sep 24 21:33:42 * bamccaig has a habit of `clear'ing terminals. This isn't a terminal though. Sep 24 21:34:21 bamccaig, ctrl+l ... imagine the time you'll save Sep 24 21:34:23 :D Sep 24 21:34:33 :D Sep 24 21:37:05 I didn't know about ctrl+l... Something tells me I don't want to clear irssi though... At least, not until I know the "repaint" sequence. Sep 24 21:37:06 How stable and usable is OM2008.9. I use an iPhone now so I'm used with rebooting my phone once in a while. Sep 24 21:38:00 ctrl+l isn't a signal, so unless irssi interprets it, it'll do nothing Sep 24 21:38:06 ctrl+l is a bash feature Sep 24 21:38:11 Oooh, awesome. :o Sep 24 21:38:25 That is handy. Thanks. :D Sep 24 21:38:53 actually ctrl-l does a redraw in many programs, did in ircII too. Sep 24 21:39:10 when something writes into a curses screen, I do ctrl-l. Sep 24 21:39:19 ctrl+w and ctrl+u are good too (the former deletes all text to the left of the cursor until a delimeter is hit [a space, generally], and the latter does it to the beginning of the line) Sep 24 21:39:46 wow, I didn't know ctrl-u. I usually hold ctrl-w ;-) Sep 24 21:40:00 LionKMP, ieatlint: Also good to know. :) Sep 24 21:40:15 i use ctrl+u all the time... great for when you're at a password prompt and think you typoed Sep 24 21:40:30 ! good Sep 24 21:41:57 Which do you do first: run dfu-util or boot NOR? Does it matter and how do you keep the Neo from shutting off (IIRC it shuts off if left running NOR for a timeout period). Sep 24 21:42:00 (!good)^1 Sep 24 21:42:13 bamccaig: Boot NAND :-) Sep 24 21:42:36 I thought the NOR communicated with dfu-util...? O_O Sep 24 21:42:44 and keep clicking aux every 30 seconds :-( Sep 24 21:42:44 30 seconds and then off, yep. Sep 24 21:42:48 but not while flashing of course. Sep 24 21:43:00 bamccaig: Both can, but NAND is the one that has the latest bootloader on it Sep 24 21:43:00 you're in for a whole bunch of confusion bamccaig :) Sep 24 21:43:10 I'm sure.. Sep 24 21:43:24 bamccaig: You *can* use either NOR or NAND. But don't. Use NAND. Sep 24 21:43:30 Now I'm not sure I know the difference between booting NOR and NAND... Maybe it was the NAND bootloader I was in before... Sep 24 21:43:37 bamccaig: At some point using NOR when you don't need to is liable to lead to heartache. Sep 24 21:43:48 bamccaig: You can see the message at the top of the screen Sep 24 21:43:50 wurp2|working: it never flashed for me from NAND. Maybe I have an older NAND than you! Sep 24 21:44:24 bamccaig: To boot NAND, hold power, then about 1 sec after you pressed power, click aux while still holding power Sep 24 21:44:29 when the menu comes up release power Sep 24 21:44:42 Yep, it was NOR I was booting. Sep 24 21:44:49 wurp2|working: That sounds difficult. :-[ Sep 24 21:45:03 LionKMP: Heh, I'm giving all this info thirdhand. I have a gta01, but mwester says boot from NAND, not NOR. I trust mwester and what he says makes sense. Sep 24 21:45:07 bamccaig: Yeah :-( Sep 24 21:45:38 LionKMP: Have you tried updating your NAND uboot? Sep 24 21:45:40 wurp2|working: Failed attempt 1. It is booting the OS. :-[ Sep 24 21:45:42 let's wait if bamccaig can flash it from NAND :) Sep 24 21:45:49 wurp2|working: no, I have the original NAND. Sep 24 21:46:01 LionKMP: although... afaik NAND should have burned just fine unless you put a bad uboot on there Sep 24 21:46:02 you should always boot from nand uboot, but nor uboot *should* pose no issues for flashing Sep 24 21:46:17 LionKMP: Then it should work :-( Sep 24 21:46:50 it's just good practice, never use nor unless you need to (and you only need to right now if you're flashing nand uboot, really) Sep 24 21:46:53 ieatlint: Well, if there are bugs fixed in uboot, and you've been cautious with NOR uboot as you should, then NAND uboot is better Sep 24 21:46:56 bamccaig: hehe, read this carefully: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Booting Sep 24 21:47:16 ieatlint: sorry, looked as if you were advocating NOR Sep 24 21:47:20 wurp2|working, but the odds of a bug fix coming along that changes flashing is very small Sep 24 21:47:40 ieatlint: Sure.... mwester had some other more compelling reason Sep 24 21:47:42 lemme look... Sep 24 21:47:44 i'm saying it shouldn't matter... but you should use nand even though it shouldn't matter Sep 24 21:47:51 LionKMP: Thanks. Sep 24 21:48:11 let's see if it works for bamccaig :) Sep 24 21:48:24 bamccaig: boot NAND and let's see if it can flash. If yes, there is a problem with my NAND :) Sep 24 21:48:32 bamccaig, in short, treat NOR uboot like a recovery disk.... Sep 24 21:48:59 ieatlint: agreed Sep 24 21:50:29 oh, and anyone using a nand uboot that's older than like august 8 is crazy :P Sep 24 21:50:42 you should have it more current than that though, even Sep 24 21:51:56 ieatlint: I did not update it since FR arrived in July. :( Sep 24 21:52:38 yeah, there have been a lot of bug fixes Sep 24 21:52:53 like the gps/sd card thing Sep 24 21:52:55 ok, I'll update it. thanks Sep 24 21:53:04 gps/sd in UBOOT??? Sep 24 21:53:29 on the very low level, yes Sep 24 21:53:38 For those interested, on Sep 19 20:54:24 mwester made some comments in here talking about hardware ECC (whatever that is) being turned on, after which using NOR for dfu wouldn't work (w/o a uboot upgrade, which is slightly risky if you don't have a debug board) Sep 24 21:53:46 hm, ok. I'll flash it. That does not affec the installed OS. Sep 24 21:53:56 dfu-util --list: Found Runtime: [0x1d50:0x5119] devnum=0, cfg=0, intf=2, alt=0, name="UNDEFINED" Sep 24 21:54:22 I booted NAND!

Sep 24 21:55:09 hmmm.. i didn't know the FR had any sort of ECC Sep 24 21:55:31 and as i understand it, a NOR upgrade isn't possible without a debug board Sep 24 21:56:17 is there a way to debug gsm problems? Sep 24 21:56:49 I can't seem to get the phone to receive or make calls and I have no idea why Sep 24 21:56:50 ieatlint: Ah, that makes sense Sep 24 21:56:53 When I reflash with openmoko flasher to upgrade to 2008.9 should I just choose flash and will that update my kernel and my filesystem (both files are loaded)? Sep 24 21:57:33 I don't know mac os x flasher tool. Sep 24 21:57:37 read the manual? Sep 24 21:58:53 What I mean is: is the kernel part of the rootfile system so if you update the rootfile system you don't need to update de kernel? Sep 24 21:59:08 no no, they are separate. Sep 24 21:59:20 (1) Why are there duplicate entries in my boot menu? (2) OMG, I think it's flashing! Sep 24 21:59:29 flash both, separately. they use a different partition. Not like on PC linux. Sep 24 21:59:46 bamccaig: :) cool Sep 24 22:02:33 Kernel finished... Working on rootfs now... Sep 24 22:03:32 I assumed the -R option would reset (i.e. restart) the FreeRunner... That didn't seem to happen, so what does it reset? Sep 24 22:03:52 reset USB line I think, something in the connection. Sep 24 22:04:18 -R --reset Issue USB Reset signalling once we're finished Sep 24 22:04:25 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Dfu-util ;-) Sep 24 22:06:47 Is this the procedure to get the bootmenu on a freerunner : on your Openmoko, hold the AUX button while pressing the Power button for 5 seconds Sep 24 22:06:56 Yeah, that's where I got the reset from... USB signalling could have been anything! \o/ Sep 24 22:08:12 lesouvage_: Pay attention. ;) http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Booting Sep 24 22:12:17 lesouvage_: That is the procedure to get NOR boot menu Sep 24 22:12:43 lesouvage_: You want the NAND boot menu unless you're recovering from a bad uboot burn Sep 24 22:13:02 lesouvage_: For NAND boot, hold power button, press aux briefly after you push power button down Sep 24 22:13:35 I have it on the screen. I'm just following instruction from http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/MacOS_X#Graphical_Flashing_with_Openmoko_Flasher Sep 24 22:13:36 It took me 3 hours today to pick a number for my Neo's SIM card... My carrier's Web site listed 10 numbers at a time, ffs, and reloaded the whole page with each new list... It got to the point where I was loading the page in 20 Firefox tabs to increase the speed that I was cycling through them. :P Sep 24 22:14:52 rootfs done... I shutoff the power afterward. Hopefully that was right. ;) Sep 24 22:14:57 I'm in NAND mode, it is on the screen *** BOOT MENU (NAND) **** Sep 24 22:15:22 bamccaig: I usually just boot it, but powering off should be fine Sep 24 22:15:50 I am chatting on MSN on pidgin, rox :) Sep 24 22:16:16 LionKMP: I chat on MSN on irc via bitlbee and jabber, so there Sep 24 22:16:17 hmm, is there any good jabber client for om yet? Sep 24 22:16:23 Aww, I forgot to update the splash screen. :P Sep 24 22:16:37 (pidgin really sucks at anything advanced when it comes to jabber) Sep 24 22:17:03 LionKMP: Oh, on pidgin on the FR. You win :-) Sep 24 22:17:20 hehe yep Sep 24 22:17:38 1 more with much successes using dfu-util on a 64-bit system. Sep 24 22:17:41 however there is no input box for my text, I can't see what I type before sending. Sep 24 22:17:54 hmm, i hate pidgin Sep 24 22:17:54 bamccaig: splashs creen! Sep 24 22:17:58 the original is nicer than the new one! Sep 24 22:18:02 LionKMP: I would probably still prefer irc to my bitlbee gateway, then Sep 24 22:18:20 Booting: \d+% (That cemented with a pair of boots) Sep 24 22:18:46 cement boots, that's old school Sep 24 22:19:28 Hi all, if i shutdown my freerunner, i can only start it again by connecting a charger or usb cable. is that normal? 2007.2 Sep 24 22:20:05 edje: power button should start it if held long enough Sep 24 22:20:43 OK, my phone has never prompted me for my SIM pin... I thought maybe it was a bug in 2007.2 or something, but even with 2008.9 it isn't... Sep 24 22:21:09 ...WTF. Apparently my Neo just shutdown... For no reason at all. Sep 24 22:21:38 lindi-: i tried over ten seconds, how long should it take? Sep 24 22:21:41 got a message "end of write exceeds partition end" while reflashing with openmoko flash for macosx. What should I do? Sep 24 22:21:49 edje: not very long Sep 24 22:22:23 edje: does the physical power button work? Sep 24 22:22:43 lesouvage_: What are you trying to flash? Which distro? Sep 24 22:22:54 Ahhhh! :| My FreeRunner might have just died. Did somebody sneak FoxAlive into that kernel image!? Sep 24 22:22:57 lindi-: so, is it a bug or a defect? the power button does work for all other functions Sep 24 22:23:23 edje: You've tried removing the battery for 10 seconds, putting it back in, & then booting? Sep 24 22:23:30 lesouvage_: are you sure you flash kernel to kernel, rootfs to rootfs? Sep 24 22:23:33 And does the FR stay on if you disconnect the charger? Sep 24 22:24:14 wurp2|working: Om2008.9-gta02-20080916.rootfs.jffs2 Sep 24 22:24:49 wurp2|working: i tried the battery trick, it did not work. as sson as i use the charger starts and keeps running after the charger is removed. ( battery is full by the way ) Sep 24 22:25:02 lesouvage_: As LionKMP said, are you sure you flashed kernel as the kernel, rootfs as the rootfs? Sep 24 22:25:06 edje: hard to say, sounds weird Sep 24 22:25:17 edje: has it always been like that? Sep 24 22:25:31 i only have it for two days ;-) Sep 24 22:25:46 edje: For me (on my gta01), it will start when I plug the charger in if the way it shut down was by running the battery all the way down Sep 24 22:25:53 Are you sure you've charged it completely? Sep 24 22:26:12 wurp2|working: yup 100% charged Sep 24 22:26:19 OK, maybe not dead.. After pulling the battery and putting it back in it is rebooting again... Perhaps it was still running, but the screen died? Sep 24 22:26:30 If the battery is too low, and it last shut down because of low battery, it will start as soon as you plug in the charger, but not from holding down the power button Sep 24 22:26:32 The line I see is " Starting DFU download to partition factory" Sep 24 22:26:46 bamccaig: Probably. Some distros turn off screen after 40 seconds or so Sep 24 22:27:03 lesouvage_: There are different dfu parameters for burning kernel vs rootfs Sep 24 22:27:03 How do you turn the screen back on? :-X Sep 24 22:27:11 wurp2|working: that is the behavior i see, but with a full battery Sep 24 22:27:14 bamccaig: Touch it, or push aux if it has suspended Sep 24 22:27:18 edje: :-( Sep 24 22:27:27 Touching didn't work... Maybe it suspended... Sep 24 22:27:38 wurp2|working : I'm using a tool, I suppose this tool knows what image should go to what partition. Sep 24 22:27:57 well, thanks all, i will investigated some more the next couple of days Sep 24 22:28:04 I must say, the 2008.9 startup is less friendly than 2007.2... Sep 24 22:28:07 lesouvage_: Sorry, I dunno anything about your tool... but based on what happened, I suppose it doesn't know which image goes to which partition :-) Sep 24 22:30:29 There also was a "go manual" part in the instalation guide. I guess it is time t read that part. ;-( Sep 24 22:31:52 OK, I think it just have been suspended... AUX seemingly worked (though I did everything I could think of before it actually came back so who knows what did it). It's a little slow. Sep 24 22:32:48 And it's only taking like 5 - 10 seconds to "suspend"... Not cooll. Sep 24 22:33:08 It seems the power button might be bring it out of "suspension". Sep 24 22:33:13 Anybody familiar with 2008.9? Sep 24 22:34:17 power yes Sep 24 22:34:23 unless when it fails Sep 24 22:34:35 Heh. I like that last part. ^^ Sep 24 22:35:32 Is the time application not working properly yet? I can't see to set the time from the GUI (nor can I select my timezone, etc.).

Yes, automatic had to be set to off. Sep 24 22:39:28 yes, sorry. (having fun with MSN pidgin on FR meanwhile :) ) Sep 24 22:39:50 gotta go. see you tomorrow :) have fun! Read the dox ;-) Sep 24 22:40:24 Thanks for the halpz, LionKMP. Sep 24 22:40:30 I just added program descriptions to this page, so you can find cool appz : http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Applications_directory :) Sep 24 22:40:44 will continue tomorrow... :) Sep 24 22:56:10 Is there no way to get to a terminal in 2008.9? :| Sep 24 22:59:23 bamccaig, you have to install the terminal. Sep 24 23:15:12 in the "known issues" section of the wiki for 2008.9, there is: Neo turns off before reaching x. Sep 24 23:15:20 not very encouraging Sep 24 23:16:41 also: Cannot dial numbers starting with * or #. Sep 24 23:17:55 really? how am i supposed to had credit to my phone account? the number for that is #611 Sep 24 23:19:43 i'm so staying with 2007.2, OM has only regressed since february 2007 i don't think that's funny Sep 24 23:24:52 dwalker: Thanks... :-[ I probably meant to confirm that it wasn't installed by default. Sep 24 23:27:31 bada.. bing! Sep 24 23:28:21 bada bong Sep 24 23:52:23 WTF... :( Sep 24 23:53:01 I installed some root password application in 2008.9 and immediately it's prompting me to enter a root password. Thing is, there is no input mechanism whatsoever. :( Sep 24 23:55:22 bada.. boom! Sep 24 23:56:20 bada ..dong Sep 25 00:01:44 lulz, I have a Web browser a terminal, but can only input alpha characters... I gotta find an alternate input mechanism... Sep 25 00:01:49 Anybody have a preference? Sep 25 00:02:12 s/browser a terminal/browser and terminal emulator/ Sep 25 00:02:34 i just installed om2008.9 on the freerunner i got today, where is the terminal? Sep 25 00:02:44 You have to install it. Sep 25 00:03:25 You'll need a connection to the Internet. The you can go to the Installer at the bottom of the first screen and find it in the Development category. Sep 25 00:03:47 damn. im having trouble connecting it to the internet. when i tried to use wifi on my home network, i couldnt enter in the wep key because it was only letters no numbers Sep 25 00:04:07 and the usb connection ‎is tricky. Sep 25 00:06:35 i just experienced something weird. when switching desktop in xmonad, all windows from the previous desktop are transfered into my second monitor. is this a 'feature' ? Sep 25 00:06:46 sorry wrong channel Sep 25 00:08:56 danwink: There are two problems I've encountered with the USB networking. Adding DNS servers to /etc/resolv.conf and configuring iptables to forward Neo traffic to the Internet. Sep 25 00:09:00 Where are you with that? Sep 25 00:09:24 (Maybe problems wasn't the right word... Steps? :P) Sep 25 00:10:21 morning Sep 25 00:10:56 Linux says it's 8PM, but I feel so tiiiired... Sep 25 00:11:34 i can't input anything in xterm why? Sep 25 00:12:18 We need manuals for everything so RTFM applies... Or we can attempt to make RTFW popular. Sep 25 00:12:25 * bamccaig is kidding. Sep 25 00:13:47 well when i was running the stock firmware i could ssh into the phone and ping back and forth and stuff, but now that i installed the new firmware im having trouble with usb connection at all. let me try a few things again, brb Sep 25 00:14:20 Sounds over my head, sorry. Sep 25 00:15:14 I installed the openmoko-terminal or whatever instead of xterm... It allowed input, but was limited to alpha characters. I'm attempting to find a better input mechanism ATM. Sep 25 00:15:54 * bamccaig lied. He's eating apple crisp *then* looking for a better input mechanism. Sep 25 00:16:41 grrr.... im connection via usb but since i installed 2008.9 its giving me warning messages WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY! Sep 25 00:16:42 Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)! Sep 25 00:16:42 It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been changed. Sep 25 00:17:13 now i need to reassure the computer. its gone all paranoid on me. Sep 25 00:17:32 I just deleted that entry from ~./.ssh/known_hosts Sep 25 00:18:34 heh im a linux newbie; what command should i use from command line to change that file Sep 25 00:19:50 I use `vi', but it requires a little knowledge to use it. You might be better off using `pico' until you learn how to use vi. Or if you want I could give you the basics... Sep 25 00:20:33 I don't remember which one of `pico' and `joe' displays it's commands at the bottom, but that has been in my experience the easiest to use for a newbie (because the commands are there for reference). Other editors generally expect you to know at least how to ask for help. Sep 25 00:21:02 I think pico is the one you're after. So something like `pico ~/.ssh/known_hosts'. Sep 25 00:21:11 If it's installed. :P Sep 25 00:22:18 thanks Sep 25 00:22:22 pico wroks Sep 25 00:22:31 im inside it now Sep 25 00:23:05 yeah earlier i used vi, it was tricky Sep 25 00:23:25 It's a very powerful editor, but it's not n00b friendly, that's for sure. :P Sep 25 00:23:49 I'd like to take the time to learn all the vi commands. A short tutorial was enough to show me just how powerful it is. Sep 25 00:24:08 ill have to look into it then.:) Sep 25 00:24:32 alright now im onto getting it to talk to the outside world Sep 25 00:25:35 The instructions on the Wiki didn't work for me at that... I opened a thread on a discussion board and another member found a cached Wiki page (that had been deleted) with instructions that did work for me. Let me know how it goes and I'll post the link. Sep 25 00:27:16 right now im copying this into etc/network/interfaces in ubuntu Sep 25 00:27:18 auto usb0 iface usb0 inet static address 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 up iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 & up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward & up iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT & down iptables -D POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 & Sep 25 00:28:54 and now i cant ssh anymore :( Sep 25 00:32:43 also in 2008.9 how to you stop running programs? i started locations and sudoku and i dont know how to stop them Sep 25 00:33:42 i tried the other version on the wiki page and still cant get it to see the internet. will you send me that link? Sep 25 00:36:14 You stop running programs by switching to it (click the top of the screen like before) and picking the program, then clicking the top again and click "Remove" in the bottom left of that top secton.

I *assume* it also kills it. ;) Sep 25 00:48:46 damn cross compilation :p Sep 25 00:50:19 Is anybody familiar with openmoko-set-root-password? Is there no cli equivalent, etc.? Sep 25 00:50:38 And if you do set the root password, are things going to break when you boot the Neo or will it know to prompt you? Sep 25 00:57:02 I don't see anything wrong with that Sep 25 00:57:08 so long as you remember it :) Sep 25 00:58:51 hmmm anyone with a gta01 to unload for a buck ortwo ;d Sep 25 00:58:54 ;D Sep 25 01:09:47 Is the process for flashing the updated splash screen the same as installing the kernel and rootfs (i.e. -a splash)? Sep 25 01:11:03 xcasex: didnt you have one already? Sep 25 01:13:10 somebody talk in spanish??? Sep 25 01:15:52 quien? Sep 25 01:15:54 bamccaig, yeah just set the target to "splash" Sep 25 01:18:08 The boots are kinda lame... The original splash looked nicer... What's the deal with that? Sep 25 01:19:03 yeah i hate the boots (ib) Sep 25 01:19:43 i had to go get spore before best buy closed. i kept forgetting to get it Sep 25 01:20:47 OK, so apparently flashing the new splash was a bad thing(TM). My FreeRunner seemingly finished booting, but now the screen is dark (all black?) and it doesn't seem to respond to my inputs. Sep 25 01:22:20 somebody talk in spanish? Sep 25 01:27:25 is it possible to flash the kernel live? Sep 25 01:28:03 I'm sure the kernel partition is just one of the /dev/mtdblocks Sep 25 01:28:11 but I don't know which one or what kind of partition they are Sep 25 01:29:30 Wow, something is definitely not happy in 2008.9... I'm having pretty consistent issues with the screen seemingly turning off or something... :-/ Sep 25 01:29:53 bamccaig: ditto Sep 25 01:30:33 yeah i had to tap the power button then touch the screen to get it to stop doing that Sep 25 01:30:53 but then after 30s it happens again Sep 25 01:33:05 Thing is, I tap the power button and nothing seems to be happening so I get impatient and hold it... And then the phone seems to shutdown (once the graphics came back in time for me to see it shutting down). Sep 25 01:33:19 YES! SUCCESS! Finally ping google.com works. Sep 25 01:33:27 \o/ Sep 25 01:33:58 I've increased suspend to 60 seconds... Still doesn't seem enough though. :) Sep 25 01:34:12 I've turned off suspend.... Sep 25 01:34:20 fredrin: me too. Sep 25 01:34:35 And the screen still turns off? WTF is happening then? Sep 25 01:34:38 ok whats the best terminal openmoko-terminal or xterm Sep 25 01:34:44 no the screen stops turning off Sep 25 01:34:49 when you finally do that Sep 25 01:35:01 but then its on forever. not a great comprimise Sep 25 01:35:10 Yeah... :-/ Sep 25 01:35:54 oh cool the logo for xterm is from superjer Sep 25 01:36:12 my inspiration for my raytracer Sep 25 01:36:24 Does anybody know where I can find instructions for installing a new touch keyboard on 2008.9? I need QWERTY... :'( Sep 25 01:38:54 After rebooting my /etc/resolv.conf file was wiped clean... Is that normal? If so, where do I store the nameservers permanently? Sep 25 01:40:47 It is, i think you edit /etc/network/interfaces Sep 25 01:41:17 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking#Configure_Default_Neo_DNS Sep 25 01:41:43 Ah... For some reason whenever I read that I thought it was on hosts that supported said file, which AFAICT Fedora doesn't.. Sep 25 01:42:59 Yes this is so much fun. When i first got the Freerunner i was scared that it was too much a "developers only" phone, if you know what i mean, but im having so much fun with it now. Sep 25 01:45:15 Hmmm, is there a limit to how many nameservers you can add? I'm using my ISP's from home, but when I'm elsewhere or on public WiFi networks I might need to use different DNS servers... Can I add more than 3? Sep 25 01:47:57 * bamccaig manually suspended his FreeRunner to test it's operation and *again* shut it down trying to awaken it. Sep 25 01:48:47 It seems the "locked" functionality via AUX actually postpones the shutdown though... o_O Sep 25 01:49:15 yeah when you awaken just a really quick tap, made that mistake a few times Sep 25 01:49:54 Yeah, it just doesn't seem to work though... I give it a quick tap and nothing seems to happen for 10 - 15 seconds... And I start to think it can't be taking that long and try again holding a little longer... Sep 25 01:50:35 FreeRunner: .92843822 seconds. No more. No less. >:( Sep 25 01:51:05 yeah for me a quick tap on the power button and then touch the touch screen immediatly Sep 25 01:51:17 ok does anyone know how snake works Sep 25 01:51:32 whats the select key? Sep 25 01:52:28 snake is very lame. Sep 25 01:53:47 duke nukem 3d is nice :) Sep 25 01:55:00 oo ill have to download that Sep 25 02:05:03 Somebody talk in spanish???????????????????????????? (= Sep 25 02:10:44 how are you supposed to type in xterm!?!?! Sep 25 02:17:56 ivanchoo9: I don't think so. ;) Sep 25 02:19:49 zash: yep. but i need a second unit Sep 25 02:20:36 Is `man' excluded simply because of capacity? It's kind of annoying to not be able to get more information on a command. :P Sep 25 02:22:07 * bamccaig almost dropped his Neo off his lap... :'( Sep 25 02:24:55 bamccaig: run man on your deskto Sep 25 02:25:12 seriouisly - it is a waste of flash to includ emanuals/docs on the phone Sep 25 02:25:15 u have limited space Sep 25 02:25:31 put stuff the software needs that u can't use more easily elsewhere Sep 25 02:25:32 :) Sep 25 02:25:48 the freerunner feels very sturdy. Like if you dropped it off you lap it wouldnt matter Sep 25 02:29:11 Are they exactly the same manuals between the desktop and Neo though? Sep 25 02:29:30 danwink: I'd rather not find out. :P Sep 25 02:29:35 if its the same command... Sep 25 02:33:53 I thought maybe xterm required a special option to display the keyboard... I don't understand how the whole platform works though (i.e. what takes care of the keyboard, the application or the OS)... Sep 25 02:34:06 xterm has zero suport for auto-keyboard show Sep 25 02:34:19 u need manual control Sep 25 02:34:35 What does that mean? :) Sep 25 02:34:44 om decided that manula control is unnecessary by default thus u have to modify things to get it back Sep 25 02:35:17 apps need to hint "i want a keyboard" Sep 25 02:35:20 there are 2 mechanisms Sep 25 02:35:35 the matchbox one (send a message to root explicitly saying "show" or "hide" keyboard) Sep 25 02:35:53 or via properties on the window (much preferred) as u then just put a porperty saying "this window wants a keyboard" Sep 25 02:35:57 and what style Sep 25 02:36:03 (alpha-numeric, numebrs only, etc.) Sep 25 02:36:13 if apps dont have this support keyboard wont display or hide Sep 25 02:36:16 it'll do nothing Sep 25 02:36:20 Is this the planned implementation or the existing implemention? :-X Sep 25 02:36:27 thats why i also had a manula control button Sep 25 02:36:29 in the wm Sep 25 02:36:34 that manually shows/hides kbd Sep 25 02:36:50 but om decided they didnt want manual control Sep 25 02:36:56 so removed that feature Sep 25 02:37:19 i no longer work for om Sep 25 02:37:29 Are you basically saying that the repository version of xterm is completely unusable? Sep 25 02:37:32 so whatever they plan is non of my concern - nor do i know what they plan Sep 25 02:37:33 :) Sep 25 02:37:42 dont look at me Sep 25 02:37:47 ask om Sep 25 02:37:52 as i said above Sep 25 02:37:59 o_O Sep 25 02:38:05 u need to modify things (install replacement packages) to get manual control back Sep 25 02:38:09 by default it is unusable Sep 25 02:38:10 correct Sep 25 02:38:16 that was what om wanted Sep 25 02:38:28 if i was connected to my freerunner via usb and through ssh i typed ifdown usb0, how do i get my usb back Sep 25 02:38:49 danwink: ifup usb0 ? Sep 25 02:38:58 but im not connected anymore.... Sep 25 02:39:05 u dont have a terminal? Sep 25 02:39:11 i have xterm, Sep 25 02:39:24 ifup usb0 then Sep 25 02:39:25 in it Sep 25 02:39:31 but theres no keyboard Sep 25 02:40:12 Heh. Sep 25 02:40:16 and no manual keyboard controls added? Sep 25 02:40:16 We just went over this. ;) Sep 25 02:40:34 nope ... Sep 25 02:40:40 * danwink is embarrassed Sep 25 02:40:41 (ie changed packages/theme etc. whihc requires basically using the installer) Sep 25 02:40:49 and thus having wifi or a network working Sep 25 02:40:58 as it will only install from a repository that you've set up to work Sep 25 02:41:00 yeah i had usb networking working Sep 25 02:41:03 then reboot Sep 25 02:41:05 u're sol. Sep 25 02:41:10 damn! Sep 25 02:41:11 lol Sep 25 02:42:00 thats the whole question. How do you enable a connection when you need the connection enabled to enable it? Sep 25 02:43:55 well.. u were silly and did ifdown usb0 Sep 25 02:44:00 u did shoot yourself in the foot Sep 25 02:44:00 :) Sep 25 02:44:30 yeah but i was going to type ifup usb0 right afterwards! i promise! Sep 25 02:44:33 lol Sep 25 02:44:34 just be happy that it doesnt remember interface state and save it and only restore if's that were up on boot Sep 25 02:44:44 why difown/up it at all? Sep 25 02:44:53 (or u wanted to change ip?) Sep 25 02:45:23 because it stopped working because i typed ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0 after changing some stuff in etc/network/interfaces Sep 25 02:49:10 aaah Sep 25 02:49:15 something u should have tyhought of Sep 25 02:49:24 "i'm about to disable the interface i'm using to do this work" Sep 25 02:49:25 :) Sep 25 02:49:38 same as if u ssh'd into a server and u did ifdown eth0 on it Sep 25 02:49:47 you ssh session wont be useful anymore Sep 25 02:49:47 :) Sep 25 02:50:16 lol yeah i didnt quite think it through Sep 25 02:54:49 raster, what do you think about having e17 remember if a window needs a keyboard (like the decoration settings) Sep 25 02:54:50 at least u can reboot Sep 25 02:55:34 then we ship a default config with xterm and some other apps already configured Sep 25 02:56:27 shoragan: thats possible Sep 25 02:56:38 tho e17's core knows nothing of vkbd's or those properties Sep 25 02:56:45 so i'd need to make a fari few adjustments Sep 25 02:56:48 fair Sep 25 02:56:59 als then i'd really need to make window remembers accessible to users too Sep 25 02:57:07 so they can add their own Sep 25 02:58:47 after my device boots it shows the home screen for 30secs or so then the screen goes black and i cant get it back on without taking out the battery, but then the same thing happens again **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Sep 25 02:59:57 2008
