<BR><BR>Thanks a lot!<BR><BR><BR>> From: psonek2@seznam.cz<BR>> To: community@lists.openmoko.org<BR>> Date: Sat, 28 Aug 2010 22:31:23 +0200<BR>> Subject: QtMoko v26<BR>> <BR>> Hello,<BR>> qtmoko has new v26 release. You can get it from our sourceforge page [1].<BR>> <BR>> Qtmoko is distribution for Openmoko Freerunner phone based on debian and <BR>> qtopia. You can find more info here [2] [3] [4].<BR>> <BR>> Here is list of changes since previous stable version (v24):<BR>> <BR>> * Fixed WS (white screen) problem in qmplayer & QX rotation (Gennady Kupava)<BR>> * Fixed unresponsive touchscreen after resume (Gennady Kupava)<BR>> * Better mass storage scripts (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * Use blue indicator is used for wifi activity (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * Reconnect wifi after resume (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * Updated QtMaze with better graphics and other enhancements (Anton Olkhovik)<BR>> * We use kernel modules for bluetooth<BR>> * QMplayer supports command line arguments (Anton Olkhovik)<BR>> * QMplayer support for youtube videos (Anton Olkhovik)<BR>> * QMplayer can encode videos suitable for Freerunner's screen<BR>> * More reliable GPRS connection (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * Dont mount /var/cache/apt for SD card images which makes apt work better<BR>> * Working for bluetooth hands free for GSM calls<BR>> * Shell scripts that are executed on suspend/resume (Piotr Gabryjeluk)<BR>> * APGS and GPS standby support (Piotr Gabryjeluk)<BR>> * Fixed "When locked" power management mode<BR>> * Bigger QTerminal (no tabs whith only one session)<BR>> * Support for A2DP bluetooth audio<BR>> * Raptor - GUI for apt package manager<BR>> * QMplayer - support for playlists (Anton Olkhovik)<BR>> * New nice theme called finximod (Joif)<BR>> * Stripped kernel modules for saving more space<BR>> * Deleted unused dejavu fonts for more space<BR>> * Use stylesheet for better html forms rendering in Arora (Ant+Alex)<BR>> * Arora supports downloading and playing youtube videos (Anton Olkhovik)<BR>> * Arora is smaller uses tab labels and better animation (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * Tab bar size and zooming as upstream Arora does (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * Fixed "not found error page" in Arora (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * We have kernel sources on github [5]<BR>> * New apps - qweather (Anton Olkhovik) and qneoriod game (Bala)<BR>> * PDF support in eyepiece (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> * Fixed crashing qdictopia (Alex Samorukov)<BR>> <BR>> Most of the changes dont need comments, but some require explanation.<BR>> <BR>> First of all kernel fixes from Gennady deserve big credit. Finally after years <BR>> you should not see any white screen. Watching videos in qvga and rotating X <BR>> server now works flawlessly. Thanks!<BR>> <BR>> Kernel sources with current .config can be found on github [5]. Updated <BR>> instructions for building are in rootfs howto [6].<BR>> <BR>> You can now watch youtube videos from Arora web browser. Nice howto is here <BR>> [7]. There is currently problem that mplayer cant handle flv files. I think this <BR>> is due to changes in youtube videos format, because it worked with apt-get <BR>> installed mplayer before. But you can download the video and encode it to mp4 <BR>> in qmplayer right on the device.<BR>> <BR>> QtMoko should now save AGPS data before GPS is switched off (e.g. after you end <BR>> NeronGPS). After GPS is switched on, it will supply those stored data and you <BR>> will get fast fix. AGPS data is stored in /var/cache/agpsdata.<BR>> <BR>> Bluetooth headsets can be now used for both audio and GSM calls. GSM calls <BR>> needed fix because of kernel bug. The fix is userspace program gta02-gsm-bt-fix <BR>> by Gabrys and is started/stoped when handsfree connects/disconnects. There is <BR>> problem that you must have incomming call first. If you make outgoing call <BR>> first, you will have no audio. This should be fixed in newer kernels but we dont <BR>> know fix for 2.6.29 kernel used in this release.<BR>> <BR>> A2DP (bluetooth audio) support works too but with some glitches. You need <BR>> headset with A2DP support. After pairing press "Supported services" from <BR>> bluetooth device context menu. New button "Connect audio (A2DP)" should then <BR>> appear. Sometimes it fails to connect. For me it help putting headset in <BR>> pairing mode, restart phone and then the button works. If you make the <BR>> bluetooth audio device default it will work in all alsa programs, but expect <BR>> problems e.g. with GSM calls. If you dont make it default GSM will be ok. <BR>> However only QMplayer can detect it and use it now.<BR>> <BR>> Other changes should not need more explanation, but if you would like to know <BR>> some details i will be happy to answer questions.<BR>> <BR>> Thanks for everybody who helped with this release. I hope you'll like the <BR>> changes and new features.<BR>> <BR>> Cheers<BR>> <BR>> Radek<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> [1] https://sourceforge.net/projects/qtmoko/files/<BR>> [2] http://qtmoko.org/<BR>> [3] http://activationrecord.net/radekp/qtmoko/<BR>> [4] http://github.com/radekp<BR>> [5] http://github.com/radekp/linux-2.6<BR>> [6] <BR>> http://github.com/radekp/qtmoko/blob/master/doc/txt/debian_rootfs_howto.txt<BR>> [7] http://activationrecord.net/radekp/pub/qtmoko_youtube_howto.jpg<BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> Openmoko community mailing list<BR>> community@lists.openmoko.org<BR>> http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community<BR> </body>
