Hello everybody, new QtMoko images v15 based on QT 4.6 are now out! Images for flashing or SD card can be downloaded from here [1]. QtMoko is stable distribution that combines Debian/Qtopia using QT 4.6 on framebuffer as toolkit. It has also compatibility layer for running X applications. More information on our homepage [2][3][4][5][6]. Changes from previous version: * Using QT 4.6 (with 2 patches that should be upstream in QT 4.6.1) * Better QVGA support (no flickering for QMplayer videos now) * Reading contacts from SIM in unicode (Ant) * Wlan - fixed WPA-PSK with AES (Torfinn Ingolfsen) * Fixed RTC problems after apt-get upgrade * 10MB smaller image size - no python preinstalled now * Added icon for sharing GPRS connection with PC * Disabled modem multiplexing - fixes problems with hang in dialer after boot * For me GPRS is now more stable (with no multiplexing). * Powering up modem from code * Fixed alsa scenario for voip * Enabled voip and google talk * New applications Don't expect any miracles with this version. As a phone it should be quite the same as v14. For web it's probably better because of improved webkit in QT. As for developer i am happy that we can keep up QT up to date. I am also very happy about applications. There is now excelent GPS application NeronGPS and web browser Arora in package feed so dont miss them ;-) I have also enabled VOIP for this version and replaced voip alsa state with the one posted some time on mailing list. So maybe voip will now work. If someone makes it working please let me know. However there is probably still bug that incoming SMS is sometimes delivered after phone reboot. Any help on this issue would be very welcome. I hope there are no new bug and you will enjoy this version ;-) Cheers Radek [1] https://sourceforge.net/projects/qtmoko/files/ [2] http://qtmoko.org/ [3] http://activationrecord.net/radekp/qtmoko/ [4] http://activationrecord.net/radekp/qtmoko/screenshots/ [5] ...

Can I upgrade my NAND image(from v14) without a fresh install? -- --------------------------------------------------------- Atilla Filiz Eindhoven University of Technology Embedded Systems, Master's Programme --------------------------------------------------------
Yes, you can. If you first install QtBackup and create a backup with it. The you can use the installer-image which will flash the new QtMoko V15 and it will restore the backup after flashing. Here you can find the installer-image: http://www.openmobile.nl/pages/downloads.php#qtm15. Just unzip to your sd and neo in nor mode, selecting boot from sd. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/QtMoko-v15-tp4159253p4163426.html Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Good work, together with SHR QtMoko is one of the best distributions. -- http://nuevaeracr.blogspot.com Linux user number 478378 Linux machine number 386687 Tec.

The main question is: Exist Debian packages of QtMoko? This would solve a lot of upgrade issues. I once tried building QtMoko on my Freerunner but since I had to patch the build system, to restart the make process after internal compiler errors at least once per day (by increasing swap and reducing the optimisation level) and didn't finished compiling in approximately two weeks I stopped :-( Jens _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
IIRC somebody already created one. But it was probably equal to Sure, but also it would be a lot of additional work. New versions do not contain just new /opt but also changes to init scripts, various settings, removed and newly added packages, new kernel and other stuff. It's also easier if you can fix bugs against one certain configuration of the whole system - that's clearly advantage of distributing whole image. So yes, i would be nice to have debian package, but i cant create/maintain it (because of time constraints). Somebody else would have to do it.

Yes. They exist. I'm currently building and testing the v15. I hope to have them available in a few hours.

I havent seen this message. It's most likely that you have wrong qt version. To check if your qt is ok do: cd path/to/qtmoko-from-git git submodule (will output SHA digest of QT submodule) cd qtopiacore/qt git log (should display on the lastest commit the same SHA as above) If you need to checkout correct qt you have to do something like: cd path/to/qtmoko-from-git git submodule init I have written small howto in README. It can be seen on the front page at http://github.com/radekp/qtmoko under the file list. Git submodules are a little messy on the first try, but once you git used to them it's quite ok. And it's the only maintainable way how to keep up with QT's git. Hope it helps Regards Radek _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Radek, By removing python from the image, gpsd is also missing, therefore TangoGPS (under QX) will not run. Maybe its better to leave python (and gpsd) a part of the image? I also noticed that you removed multiplexing, does this mean we cannot use GPRS and calling at the same time? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/QtMoko-v15-tp4159253p4171927.html Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
It can be installed via apt-get and gpsd can be configured to start on boot. Or is there any problem so that it does not work this way? I think NeronGPS is much better then TangoGPS, it's native app and we can save 10 MB (packed). Maybe i am wrong, but the number of people that prefer TangoGPS over NeronGPS must be small and it is quite simple to install tango Yup, but it wasnt working before too. I'd like to get multiplexing back, but it must be without bugs first and in v15 it was causing at least 2 bugs (one with Qtopia stuck in call screen - very annoying and nearly 100% reproducible after first boot and second is with GPRS - now it starts always, before you had to try several times). So the plan is now to disable multiplexing and hopefully after it's fixed it will be back. Regards Radek _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Because the files and folders in /usr/share/man are missing (to preserve I also think NeronGPS is much better, but TangoGPS has some functions which are quite useful (locate your friends). But even then, when missing gpsd, I was not having that much problems when using GPRS, okay, at first boot I had to try twice, and sometimes when booting I got stuck in the PIN-code screen, but then, I could make a call even when using GPRS, now I have to choose... I don't know which option I prefer.

Oki, i'll try to get multiplexing back or at least configurable. I think the stuck-in-PIN-code is possible to fix - i hope i am getting idea what's going on there...

Yoric, The installer-images I've created are intended to flash from sdcard instead of dfu-util and are to be used as described here: - Prepare your sdCard, create partitions: 1=vfat, 2=swap - Extract the content of the zip-file to the first partition of the sdcard (directly from PC is the quickest way to go) - Boot from sdcard (nor-mode, that is aux+power and choose 2nd option) Now the phone will be flashed, this is what will happen: - flash qi.img - reboot - flash kernel.img - flash rootfs.img - restore qtbackup.tgz (optional, see below) - reboot - start QtMoko If you used QtMoko before and you have created a backup with QtBackup (found in the software-feeds) there will be an qtbackup.tgz file on the sdcard, if this file is found by the installer-image it will be restored, this way you can preserve contacts, documents, settings, applications etc over different-versions of QtMoko. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/QtMoko-v15-tp4159253p4186086.html Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

The installer is created to flash the phone from the sdcard. There are a few files, qi.img, kernel.img, rootfs.img, those are the one you can also flash using dfu-util, where qi.img is the bootloader, kernel.img is the kernel (uImage) and rootfs.img is the jffs2 file.
