Paroli a phone application for the Openmoko phones.
Originally it was planned to be released with Om2009 distribution but as OM2009 developement slowed down, Paroli was also compiled for SHR
Paroli is based on top of the FSO framework and enables the use of it via a core and several services.

Paroli actually makes FR a simple, very working phone!!
If you want to try and run paroli in SHR unstable RFN. Flash the latest shr-unstable image from http://shr.bearstech.com/shr-unstable/images/om-gta02/.
The image from 08-08-09 has a minor problem with opkg. to fix it
opkg-cl update opkg-cl upgrade
then install paroli
opkg install paroli
Fix the conf files that the paroli installer messes with ( I hope to fix the recipe in the next couple of days. )
cp /etc/old_frameworkd.conf /etc/frameworkd.conf cp /etc/freesmartphone/oevents/old_rules.yaml /etc/freesmartphone/oevents/rules.yaml
now if you want to disable the shr phone apps without removing them comment all of the lines out in
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/89notifier and /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80ophonekitd
if you want the bind-home to ease upgrades add this line to fstab.
/media/card/bind-home /home/root none bind 0 0
You should now have a functional paroli on SHR setup. Once you have a working setup it might be better not to run opkg upgrades but only upgrade specific packages when needed.
To install the Om2009 distribution download the uImage and fso-paroli-image from http://downloads.openmoko.org/distro/testing/NeoFreerunner/
In order to get the package from unstable you'll need to adjust the configuration of opkg:
echo src/gz openmoko-unstable-armv4t http://downloads.openmoko.org/repository/unstable/armv4t > /etc/opkg/om-unstable.conf
Then do an opkg-update and opkg install paroli.
This should get you the newest version.
Download paroli from http://downloads.freesmartphone.org/fso-milestone5/feeds//armv4t/paroli_0.2.1+gitr7a2...442-r0_armv4t.ipk
or from http://downloads.openmoko.org/distro/experimental/
git clone http://git.paroli-project.org/paroli.git/
Check "how do I change the theme" below. By default, the display is set to 'paroli' which gives Paroli a full window, but you can change the theme so that you can access other applications outside Paroli using Illume.
Go to the home-screen (the one with the big clock) and hold the AUX-button pressed for 2 seconds.
Simpy click on Status in Settings - gprs, it toggles from unregistered to active.
Open settings, click on "display" and then hit "profile". This will change the profile to the next: after some rumbling on the screen you will have the new theme activated.
To change to paroli-serenity on command line, run:
DISPLAY=:0 mdbus org.enlightenment.wm.service /org/enlightenment/wm/RemoteObject org.enlightenment.wm.Profile.Set paroli-serenity
To turn off Paroli, use the Illume top bar: click the bar when running Paroli and click on the red X to shut down Paroli.
To kill it from command line:
pkill paroli
To turn of the whole phone, hold the power button down for 10 seconds. It will not give you a visual feedback, it just starts shutting down.
When illume or paroli-serenity theme is activated (see above), clicking the top bar will show you 3 icons. The one in the right (the big X) closes the current app.
In the top up menu, there is is a "qwerty" icon. Some to close it.
The messages will be saved to /home/root/.paroli
