It does not work on recent kernels, could you update it please? It really was a cool application!

I have no access to svn:// protocol from here... Our access is http/ftp only... Could you please send me a tarball of the svn repo? Thanks.

At the moment there is no mail notification system for new comments. Nevertheless you may watch the rss feed of a selected blogentry, which will show any new comments postet to it. Regarding the neod: As I mentioned before I am not in possesion of the patched neod sources. I was happy that Marcus Bauer mailed me the patched binary. I think I even saw a patchset for it posted to the mailing list. Concerning the GPLv2 you may be right that I need to provide you with the source code. But as I take it from your last comment you are no longer really interested in it. If you still need the sources and you are not capable of contacting Marcus and asking him for the sources, drop me a line and I will do my best to send you the patchset. greetings Jakob

Jakob , it took me a month to notice you had replied :-) Is there some way to get email when you reply to blog posts? neod is not important for me anymore since I am using fso-frameworkd. However, since Bob has given you the right to distribute neod under GPLv2 you should really be offering the source code yourself too, right?

on 2007.2 you can see the name in the upper left corner, but you can't see the eightball; the application windows stays visible it's also hard to kill it (I had to do killall -9) On 2008.8 it stops working when gestures is installed

It works without patching the neod on Om2008.8-upgrade! you really should make this a page on the wiki, it's a very nice application! (maybe you can add some sound effects?)

Did you install the patched neod? The problem with not being able to access the accelerometers is caused by another application accessing them most of the time. greetings Jakob

Ok, I needed to do a opkg install python-math . The error message is now gone but the application doesn't start correctly. For some reason I don't get any data from my accelerometers (hexdump /dev/input/event3 or hexdump /dev/input/event2). I'm using "Linux om-gta02 2.6.24 #1 PREEMPT Fri Aug 8 06:20:35 CST 2008 armv4tl unknown"

Hi, I installed your Moko Eightball but unfortunately it doesn't start. tail -f x.log says: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/eightball", line 30, in import random ImportError: No module named random Cheers Axel

@Spydon: The needed packages should be available in the default buildsystem repository which is already configured in the 2007.2 image. If you are using another you might need to enter the server manually. @Timo Juhani Lindfors: The patched neod was send to me by Marcus Bauer, after I asked about it on the devel mailing list. Unfortunately I am not in possesion of the patched sources. Just take a look at the mailing list, to contact Marcus for the patch. @Yorick: I am not quite sure whats the problem with you system. I is possible that in a newer Image some packages or package names have changed and therefore the installed dependencies conflict with something already installed on your device. At the moment I do not have a lot of freetime. Therefore I have not testet the eightball with anything else than the 2007.2 image greetings Jakob

I did cd /tmp wget http://westhoffswelt.de/data/blog/moko_eightball/neod cp neod /usr/bin/neod chmod u+x /usr/bin/neod and rebooted the freerunner, afterwards he wouldn't boot into x anymore, i just get: ERROR ERROR: Error magic check failed in ecore_event_handler_del() input handler is NULL I still can ssh in...

Hi, can I get source code for your patched version of neod somewhere? Please contact me at timo.lindfors@iki.fi

Looks like an awesum application, but where do I get the dependencies? * ERROR: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for moko-eightball: * python-evas * python-ecore * python-edje *

Hi Mickey. I have started to write EFL Bindings for vala yesterday, to get a general idea about the work that needs to be done. Even though it seems to be a lot more work than I originally predicted I think it is quite doable. Before searching for volunteers for this project I want to create two or three bindings including tests for the correct functionality. Therefore I already wrote a little testing framework. Stay tuned. I will keep you informed about the progress on this project. greetings, Jakob

Cool, good work. I agree that a Vala binding for the EFL would be an amazing thing. I think a lot of folks would be interested to help you on that, if you would launch that. If you are interested, just drop a mail to openmoko-devel and lets see whether we can pull something off. Cheers, Mickey.
