ToDos

  • Try to get to work the matchbox keyboard in Om 2008.12.
  • WLAN
  • VoIP
  • notecase

Om 2008.12

  • Don't forget to set a root password!

Not working software

  • wicd (v1.5.6) does not seem to work.
  • Mofi (v0.02) does not seem to work.
  • Matchbox keyboard: Does not work using the following instructions: 1 and 2.

Issues

Customizations

  • Use the Illume keyboard instead of the Qtopia one. Look here for instructions.
  • Enable the search bar in the contacts application (instructions).

Additional Software

  • qtopia-phone-x11-datebook (in official repo): Calendaring application.
  • vala-terminal (Homepage): Terminal.
  • ttf-liberation-mono (in official repo): Required for vala-terminal. You have to reboot in order for the font to be used.
  • midori (in official repo): Webbrowser.

Calendars

The Openmoko calendar is still available in the repository (openmoko-dates2 - 0.1.0+svnr703-r2.03 - Legacy Om calendar application.). But the prefered calendar is the Qtopia Calendar (qtopia-phone-x11-datebook - 1:4.3.2+gitr476+ba3f443faec4cefcd3805158eef70921ed39f3de-r51 - Qtopia application for organizing dates and schedules.)

Import

The Qtopia calendar supports the import of iCalendar files. The following character encodings have be confirmed to work:

  • ASCII
  • latin1

Files encoded in UTF8 are not supported (non-ASCII characters get mangled on import). To change the character encoding use the following command:

$ iconv -c -f utf8 -t latin1 calendar-utf8.vcf > calendar-latin1.vcf

Note: You can reset the PIM data if you delete the ~/Applications/Qtopia/qtopia_db.sqlite file. But if you do so you have to restart Qtopia for the changes to take effect (process qpe). If you modify the database the changes take effect immediately.
