Welcome to the 2011-09-01 edition of the Free The Phone / Openmoko Community Updates. 我们是一群自由组织到一起的人,这些人主要来自"Openmoko Inc"具有开创意义的两个产品"Neo1973"和"Neo FreeRunner"的开发人员和用户。 当前的大多数工作围绕着针对许多移动电话的自由软件分发,当然也包括最初的Neo产品。There are also several spin-off companies inspired by the Openmoko Inc's work.<br />
<br />
== Hardware ==<br />
<br />
* Video of the [[Freerunner_Navigation_Board_v3]] production posted @ YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngyhKr3yTO8<br />
** Navigation board available from eg. http://www.handheld-linux.com/ and http://www.pulster.de/<br />
<br />
* [http://projects.goldelico.com/p/gta04-main/ GTA04] has now several early adopter boards with UMTS and OMAP3 hardware functional. Stay tuned for this motherboard update to original Neo phones.<br />
** Latest GTA04 status update and a call for kernel drivers help: http://lists.goldelico.com/pipermail/gta04-owner/2011-August/000230.html<br />
<br />
* For those that haven't followed up FreeSmartphone.Org proceedings on other than Openmoko phones: Palm Pre has seen several updates to the FSO installer script (http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=utilities.git;a=tree;f=palmpre), and all in all there is some level of support to eight smartphones at the moment (http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=cornucopia.git;a=tree;f=fsogsmd/conf)<br />
<br />
== Distributions ==<br />
<br />
Distributions lists releases and other significant updates in distributions that have some support for the Openmoko devices. <br />
<br />
{{DistributionBox|<br />
Name=Debian GNU/Linux |<br />
Description=[[Debian]] is a universal operating system used on many embedded devices, servers and home computers. Using Debian on the FreeRunner gives access to the huge army of software packaged in the Debian repositories, already compiled for the Neo's ARM(v4) processor. Moreover, one can build one's own source files for programs without having to learn the OpenEmbedded way. For an existing Debian/Ubuntu user, choosing Debian for Neo FreeRunner makes phone a very familiar, trustworthy and flexible place to hack in.<br><br><br />
General news:<br />
<br><br />
* Debian is again installable with the install.sh script, thanks to a new kernel and some testing. See http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner for more details<br />
* FreeSmartphone.Org's FSO2 is making it into Debian finally, thanks to fabulous work by Rico Rommel and others. Most of it is already in: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-fso-maint/2011-August/004321.html - as of this writing, also libfsosystem, fso-usaged and fso-gsmd have gone in<br />
* FSO2 also means, like mentioned in the hardware section, a start of support for many new phones like ''Palm Pre'', ''Nokia N900'', ''Nexus One'' and others that have at least some support in FSO daemons<br />
* A new 2.6.34 kernel was released into the pkg-fso repository, required by all Neo FreeRunner users that have upgraded to Debian unstable's newest udev version. It includes the wire_up_sys_accept4.patch.<br />
* Enlightenment 17 (E17) has seen several updates, but the Python bindings still lag behind and the needed versions are only available in the experimental repository<br />
* omhacks 0.15 uploaded, most noticeable change: Fix error handling of om_sysfs_readfile<br />
* Other relevant package updates include new upstream snapshots of zhone and intone, even though both are relatively little developed compared to their competitors in the phone UI and music player fields<br />

For an existing Debian/Ubuntu user, choosing Debian for Neo FreeRunner makes phone a very familiar, trustworthy and flexible place to hack in.<br><br><br />
General news:<br />
<br><br />
* Debian is again installable with the install.sh script, thanks to a new kernel and some testing. See http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner for more details<br />
* FreeSmartphone.Org's FSO2 is making it into Debian finally, thanks to fabulous work by Rico Rommel and others. Most of it is already in: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-fso-maint/2011-August/004321.html - as of this writing, also libfsosystem, fso-usaged and fso-gsmd have gone in<br />
* FSO2 also means, like mentioned in the hardware section, a start of support for many new phones like ''Palm Pre'', ''Nokia N900'', ''Nexus One'' and others that have at least some support in FSO daemons<br />
* A new 2.6.34 kernel was released into the pkg-fso repository, required by all Neo FreeRunner users that have upgraded to Debian unstable's newest udev version. It includes the wire_up_sys_accept4.patch.<br />
* Enlightenment 17 (E17) has seen several updates, but the Python bindings still lag behind and the needed versions are only available in the experimental repository<br />
* omhacks 0.15 uploaded, most noticeable change: Fix error handling of om_sysfs_readfile<br />
* Other relevant package updates include new upstream snapshots of zhone and intone, even though both are relatively little developed compared to their competitors in the phone UI and music player fields<br />

Welcome to the 2011-09-01 edition of the Free The Phone / Openmoko Community Updates. 我们是一群自由组织到一起的人,这些人主要来自Openmoko Inc.具有开创意义的产品Neo1973和Neo FreeRunner这2个产品的的开发人员和用户。 Nowadays most efforts are around free software distributions for a range of mobile phones, including the original Neo products. There are also several spin-off companies inspired by the Openmoko Inc's work.<br />
<br />
== Hardware ==<br />
<br />
* Video of the [[Freerunner_Navigation_Board_v3]] production posted @ YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngyhKr3yTO8<br />
** Navigation board available from eg. http://www.handheld-linux.com/ and http://www.pulster.de/<br />
<br />
* [http://projects.goldelico.com/p/gta04-main/ GTA04] has now several early adopter boards with UMTS and OMAP3 hardware functional. Stay tuned for this motherboard update to original Neo phones.<br />
** Latest GTA04 status update and a call for kernel drivers help: http://lists.goldelico.com/pipermail/gta04-owner/2011-August/000230.html<br />
<br />
* For those that haven't followed up FreeSmartphone.Org proceedings on other than Openmoko phones: Palm Pre has seen several updates to the FSO installer script (http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=utilities.git;a=tree;f=palmpre), and all in all there is some level of support to eight smartphones at the moment (http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=cornucopia.git;a=tree;f=fsogsmd/conf)<br />
<br />
== Distributions ==<br />
<br />
Distributions lists releases and other significant updates in distributions that have some support for the Openmoko devices. <br />
<br />
{{DistributionBox|<br />
Name=Debian GNU/Linux |<br />
Description=[[Debian]] is a universal operating system used on many embedded devices, servers and home computers. Using Debian on the FreeRunner gives access to the huge army of software packaged in the Debian repositories, already compiled for the Neo's ARM(v4) processor. Moreover, one can build one's own source files for programs without having to learn the OpenEmbedded way. For an existing Debian/Ubuntu user, choosing Debian for Neo FreeRunner makes phone a very familiar, trustworthy and flexible place to hack in.<br><br><br />
