Anybody else is having an issue with running both of those images under Rhodium with SDHC card? (8gb).

When running haret.exe it fails at :

Welcome to Ubuntu Linux

Running an fsck on the SD card.

dosfsck 3.0.1, 23 Nov 2008, FAT32, LFN

Logical sector size is zero.

mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: Invaild argument

Failed

Failed to mount the SD card. Cannot continue,

/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off

Anybody knows how to fix that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Ranomez:
try to reformat the sdcard maybe, or use an other one, and also lol, as far as i remember when i was using rhobuntu i allways got the "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off[/I]" command, the problem i cant understand is why cant it mount the sdcard, may best guess is reformating ur sdcard

Kernel support for NFS, SMB/CIFS or SSHFS

Hi,

I managed to find a link to a Rhobunu archive on 4shared. All working fine on my Touch Pro, and able to access repositories after changing my sources.list to point to ubuntu's old-releases repository:

http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

No kernel support for anything which would let me mount a remote file system as far as I can tell.

Any ideas how to get / compile a new kernel?

Says here where to get the kernel sources:

http://code.google.com/p/rhobuntu/downloads/detail?name=Rhobuntu 9.04 19_09_2010.txt&can=2&q=

which I have obtained (from this link:)

http://gitorious.org/linux-on-qualcomm-s-msm/linux-msm/trees/htc-msm-2.6.27

But the packages needed to support kernel compilation are not available in the Jaunty armel repositories.

How did the rhobuntu folk do it? cross compile?

Cheers,

James
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] walter79:
you can replace kernel (zimage) and update modules. Did not test if it can run from clk. init.gz needs a update too
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] nightcrawler218:
Thanks for the download link. I have a few issues regarding the download. I have downloaded the Rhobuntu 9.04 19_09_2010.rar file but there is other files as described by the wiki page. In the rar file there is only UBUNTU.IMG file. Cant extract the file. It says HEADER CORRUPTED when I open it & when I try to extract the file, it says FILE CORRUPT.

hey guys, sry for waking up this post.

i want to install rhobuntu on my htc blackstone but it not want to work. i tried different versions (i think it have a july version and a september version) but both crash while boot -.-

can please someone help me? i want to use it to make my old mobile to a webserver ^^

EDIT: Okay i made it boot but the problem is when the calibration starts it doesnt realize when i push on the point :/ so after some time it just start the ubuntu desktop but then i cant move the mouse, cant type anything on the keyboard :/ the physical buttons also dont work (except the power button which turns of the screen, however pressing it again cant open the screen again)

can please someone help me ?

I too am having the same problem with the download of 19_09_2010 being corrupted, if it could be re-uped that would be awesome as the version I'm using now does not have wifi support apparently, I really want to get this working.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Same problem here. Yes, we're a few years late... but if someone has the files, our rhodiums could get out of the drawer for another while :D

The Debian Squeeze test (which I found somewhere) has wifi support, but the root password has probably been lost in the matrix. Besides, Ubuntu runs much faster despite using GNOME instead of LXDE.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] tommrazek01:
Thanks a lot, that would be really helpful. Meanwhile, if anyone wants to download the Debian 6 squeeze test, the root password is "user" (who would have guessed :D ). It's way too outdated to do a lot of things though, so if [MENTION=1705646]atarigalore[/MENTION] can post what he has, it would be amazing.

Rhobunutu on Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

User walter79 (http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=382340 ) has two copies of the latest Rhobuntu online at

http://d-h.st/users/walter79/

https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=!AILWEgk88UP71_s&id=B688C895D58E70D4!108&cid=B688C895D58E70D4

however, both appear to be corrupt. :(

The http://rhobuntu.sourceforge.net/ seems to be an older version. Though it does work, it lacks some of the later features, e.g. phone, wifi. So no connectivity. This is OK for me, as I needed a tiny UMPC (ultra mobile pc) with basic terminal and put Rhobuntu onto my X1.

For the X1, I decompiled the initrd.gz and adapted the init file for a partitioned boot (i.e. I extracted the contents of the Ubuntu.img file onto an ext3 format partition of my multi-partitioned microSD card, and made a blended init file between the original init and an init that boots from an ext2/ext3 partition). I then recompiled the initrd.gz. This was done so I can make persistent modifications easily - e.g. add software, adjust settings, etc on the ext3 partition. Such modifications would not be easily possible using the Ubuntu.img in the root folder.

So I had - in root of SD card:

haret.exe - the bootloader

initrd.gz - the initialization, containing the modified init

zImage - the kernel​

..and in my ext2/ext3 partition (which is pointed to by the modified init):

all the extracted Ubuntu.img contents, i.e. /etc, /usr, /bin,..... and so on.​

I modified the keymap as recommended for the X1, using fatals work ( http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6993913&postcount=1105 ).

The initial screen boots upside down - not really an issue, but the graphical display stays in reverse landscape. So I found and edited the scripts that 1) set up the graphical display of Rhobuntu to turn the screen the right way up on loading, and 2) also modify the behaviour of the end call key which switches between landscape & portrait. (I believe a later version of Rhobuntu wouldn't have this issue as it would correctly detect the screen much earlier in the boot process).

This is what it looks like:

Hi guys - just to let you know - i could REEEEEALLY use the version from 19.09.2010, which supports wifi. I've searched everything, and i only found a arabic and a chineese forum, which had part 1, but part 2 is either missing or corrupted. I've been on multiple 4shared accounts, torrents, older p2p networks, the tor network - it's just GONE!

Dear walter79 - please, please, please, find it in your heart - re-upload the file, and not the .RAR which is already on your OneDrive - because its corrupted, and i can't fix it - tried multiple peices of software.

If anyone managed to get one, please share.. im lost...

Rhobuntu 9.04 is what I'm basing my new derivative on, as from what I've read 9.10 had issues related to it's base origin.

I've managed to tweak it to boot from the Xperia X1, and now have modified the initrd.gz to boot from a SDcard partition.

Still more to be tweaked/tested (keymap, settings, connectivity)....

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bombenbach:
No. AFAIK Wine works only on x86 CPU's (all common desktop processors) whereas Smartphones like Rhodium have an ARM CPU.

You may try getting calibration data from here

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RaphaelLinux

i.e. changing msmts_calib= in start.txt to appropriate Raphael values.

Ubuntu takes about 930 MB on the ext3 partition so there is a slim chance that your 1GB card will suite, if you create a tiny FAT32 partition (10-15MB) and give the rest to ext3.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] fraser:
Oh, I probably ought to have said, that wasn't a "tuning" recommendation, it's the reason the CPU usage is pegged at 100%, something that massively drains the batteries.

Unless it's just me seeing it perhaps? Try running "top" in the terminal and seeing if anything is busy; I saw "dd", "syslogd" and one other logging process constantly around 30% each. I wouldn't expect any more than 5-10% total while idling.

Right one problem that im having is that i can run wlist scan and i can see the network but then if i do it again i cant, repeat wlist scan and it comes up.

I played with this for a bit last night. It was quite surreal to see a desktop OS running on a phone. The only instance of this I had seen before was XP running on that XP-phone (which was designed to do so). I had only ever used the Ububtu live CD when a hard drive crashed or something, but it's awesome to see this on a phone! A great many props to those involved in putting this together.

Oh please please please please please. Is that even possible?? (Well I suppose anything's possible, but realistically?) That's all I've ever wanted. Like an OQO 2+ phone running Win7.

Which modes do work?

iwconfig wlan0 mode Ad-Hoc

iwconfig wlan0 mode Managed

iwconfig wlan0 mode Master

iwconfig wlan0 mode Monitor

iwconfig wlan0 mode Repeater

iwconifg wlan0 mode Secondary

many of these modes are not supposed to work, and also try playing with "iwconfig wlan0 rate auto/11M/5.5M" and "iwconfig wlan0 txpower 15/30mW/auto/off"; at least we get some debug ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] araknos:

Right I have been playing around abit more and have installed the wicd manager onto the phone via usb. I cant see the ad-hoc network on it and it keeps on going on the terminal. BUT i set up an ad-hoc network on my phone and the pc managed to pick it up and connect to it, so maybe we do have wirless working. I will keep on playing with it, but for now i shall upload a build, and pm for anyone who wants to test it on a normal network and let me know if it works

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] HTCdemon:
Might I make a suggestion? ( before a new build gets released that is... )

With wifi working, do you think you could include ( or someone out there ) tightvnc with it?

would probably be much easier ( for testing purposes ) to try stuff out on it.

Just my $0.02 worth ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:
ergghh i have kind have uploaded it. It wouldnt be too hard for you install if you have linux yourself, just mount image, c+p tightvnc.deb package into mount, unmount then install on the terminal once ubuntu has loaded up
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] HTCdemon:
No problem... just saying that maybe in the future it would be cool to add it in.

I was contemplating on doing what you just said but I don't have a linux distro currently installed on this machine ( although I may pull out my puppylinux drive to do this )

Anyway cheers for the development! :D

Could you perhaps post some brief infos about getting android modules (compiling and so on) working in Ubuntu? I'm ashamed to say that I've never done something like that before. (Yes, Ubuntu on a modern Thinkpad makes you incredibly lazy :D)

EDIT: Sorry, just noticed that wifi modules have already been inside the very first image. Thought, you compiled them yourself
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:

So has anyone test the wifi build out get and got some feedback then?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:
Oh right, i just unzipped the file and put it back onto my sd card so im not too sure why at all dont get the gui
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] araknos:
can you post some debugging info like a

tail -f /var/log/messages

during the ad-hoc engage, for example...

Look at the network configuration for /etc/init.d/networking misconfiguration or wrong initialization, causes some problem on wifi for some drivers
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:
Okies ill give it a go in a moment. Has anyone managed to download the build and get it to load up to test the wifi?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bombenbach:
Yep, I also got it working in my FrankenXperia build (by copying your /lib/modules and rc.local). Same problem: No wireless networks found :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:
Mmm if you try doing iwlist scan a few times deos it ever see the network as like for me i was able to see it a few times, showing that the wireless card must work but there is some configuration wrong somewhere
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] araknos:
cat /proc/net/wireless
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bombenbach:
No, but I at least iwconfig lists eth0 so the card must be recognized.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:
And my computer saw the Ad-Hoc network set up by my phone
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bombenbach:
HOLY ****! It works! I can see the Ad-Hoc network too. You're right, the wifi card really works, we just have to find out how to make it detect other networks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:
:) not sure how though
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bombenbach:
May be the problem is that our wifi is recognized as eth0 whereas in fatsal's case it was wlan0 and as we use his scripts this might cause troubles.

EDIT: Oh sorry, just noticed that you've already changed that.

Hi,

My application makes use of unattended mode quite well.

this mode however is used to keep the application always in effect and ready to communicate which might consume some battery power.

is there a way to allow the device to get into deep sleep but schedule some periodic callback or wake at schedule to perform a task ?

you could use the windows mobile notification system for this, this is explained a bit here: http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/w-p/ce/memorymanagement/article.php/c11113

you can use this to,for instance, to set a user notification that is triggered at a specific time and then calls a program that wakes up the device
