i just built minimo and cellwriter for the freerunner (gta02), which went surprisingly well ... make build-package-minimo and make build-package-cellwriter the hardes part was finding the packages afterwards. i put them into two tar-balls, *dbg, *-dev, *-doc and the runtime one. links see below. how cellwriter is supposed to replace the i don't know and with minimo there's always 1/3 of the screen occupied by the keyboard (if somebody knows how to make that more flexible, ie the keyboard popping up when necessary, let me know). for ipk see http://www.ginguppin.de/node/16 _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Here is the quick and dirty process for manually showing and hiding the keyboard. - kill the matchbox-keyboard process - (install and) start matchbox-applet-inputmanager - run minimo TODO would be a nicer icon in the applet bar (should be easy) and and to put this into the matchbox config.

Not so funny. Works exactly once and ends afterwards with: matchbox-keyboa <defunct> Michael _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Thanks very much for the .ipk, which installed fine for me. However, I have not yet been to an https secure site that hasn't crashed minimo. Is this expected? How might I capture more log info to figure out what's happening? Brian _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
dunno. i am in no way affiliated with minimo, just tried to build it, and after success share it. bear in mind that according to the package name the code is over a year old. don't know yet how to get newer stuff into the bit bakery, pidgin f ex keeps crashing while displaying/accepting a certificate and it's 2.2.1 which is superseded be 2.4.3 anyway. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
hi i bumped into another keyboard related issue with minimo. suddenly i couldnt erase nor overwrite the default URL and visit something else... this used to work! it seems that my (matchbox) keyboard freezes if the POWER CABLE is plugged in, unplugging the cable instantly solved the issue, just as plugging the cable back in re-freezes the keyboard. any ideas? can anyone else confirm this? //henrik -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/minimo-%28browser-on-freerunner%29-tp475497p641276.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
don't use minimo until i get gprs up and running (i mostly need it to check time tables). does it happen with the charger only or everytime you connect usb? _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
It happens both with the AC charger and the usb-cable. Intrestingly it doesn't freeze the keyboard when using i.e. the terminal, however it messes up the key-bindings e.g.: With usb plugged in: the minus key "-" outputs a backslash "\" the "}" outputs a "∼" with usb unplugged the signs are output correctly! -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/minimo-%28browser-on-freerunner%29-tp475497p642074.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
I experienced the - outputting \ a few days ago and didn't realize it was related to the cable being connected, but I'm sure I had the cable connected at the time. Nice find.

Interesting, I had the same problem but fixed it by replacing keyboard.xml with a symlink to another version (in my case, the dvorak version, which worked) -- Charles-Henri _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
I had the same problem as this, but it seems to be working now. I'll let you know if I see a predictable pattern on this one. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Confirmed with 2007.2 and matchbox keyboard. In minimo if the PSU cable is plugged in the keyboard will not enter URLs. When I first tried this with USB it worked, but having then connected to the PSU to verify the problem then switched back to USB it no longer works that way either. If I switch to the terminal the keyboard works as expected with PSU or USB plugged in. Note that 'as expected' includes the known bug that changes some of the keyboard input when USB is plugged in. Curiously when minimo was working with usb plugged in it exhibited this problem for the first keypress, but subsequent key presses were correct. I noted this because t struck me as odd, but since it now doesn't work at all with USB I have been unable to repeat it. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
