1.5 years after initial installation, the Linux on Smartphones project actually starts. See http://freesmartphone.org for the first two subprojects we will host, the Open Telephony Server and the Open Device Daemon.

And, of course, by using git:
git clone git://linuxtogo.org/home/ <project path>
All LTG projects can setup a git repository if they wish.

http://projects.linuxtogo.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=97
I'm glad to announce a very late new release of gpe-sudoku, the
popular Japanese "math" game. The code was left alone for a very long
period, I have to thank Florian Boor for softly pushing me to include a
patch he authored a long time ago. In these days I applied his
patch (which mainly concerns a better GPE support) and added the
following features:
1) Support for Maemo Chinook (tested on os2008)
2) Fixed cells generated via "generate puzzle" are now colored in red
3) gpe-sudoku asks for confirmation when trying to overwrite a
modified worksheet or when quitting.

Today the driver reached a milestone by being able to associate to an AccessPoint. After this, I could ping in and out via the CF card and use SSH.
So, the raw functionality is there, now comes the fine-tuning :-)

OpieII is now know as OpenPalmtopIntegratedEnvironmentII
for the following reasons:
From handhelds.org:
"The legal folks wanted me to remind you that opie is a tradname:
http://handhelds.org/legal
and that opie2 infringes upon it. Please do not use the tradename on the
linuxtogo site or any other site. "

http://projects.linuxtogo.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=85
Jan Herman (aka 72ka) did some hard work on the core kernel development not just fixing it for the new 2.6.20 version, but delivering
- power management support
- battery support
- support for the common WM97XX driver
- several cleanups and bug fixes
Thanx for your work, Jan.
As always the code is available at H&D's subversion repository.linux on the TXCristiano P.Wed, 04 Apr 2007 9:43:04 GMTWhat is this all about?
http://projects.linuxtogo.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=81
Hello Everybody!
I want to introduce our project having the goal to build
a fully Community based handheld device. We called it
N.E.R.D. (Network Enabled Resourceful Device). After a
lot of discussions and design work we have a device
that is even capable of GSM and GPS so we renamed it
to NERD'o'Fon.
We are at the moment 3 developers all located in Austria
and working for the same company which makes communication
for our private project much easier.
At the current stage we are near to finishing the hardware
design and are hopefully ready to build a first prototype
soon. Ther are still some issues to solve, but we think
there is nothing very tricky left to deal with.
The key features of the device:
Cirrus Logic ARM920T-based EP9315 microcontroller at 200MHz
64 MB SDRAM
1MB boot flash, typically for U-Boot boot loader
Up to 512MB of storage flash via a on-board xD card
3x USB 2.0 Host
1x USB 2.0 Client
Navigation via a wheel, 8-way navigator, additional side navigator and toch screen
GSM speech and data (with GPRS) functionality connected via RS232
GPS NMEA functionality connected via RS232
IRDA port
1x Ethernet (100MBit)
1x Audio In/Out/HeadOut, Microphone
1x CF-Card
1x Docking Station Interface
LiPoly battery (2000mAh)
ATMEGA controller for battery charge control, supervision and power management
If you want to join us, feel free to contact us.
Any help gladly appreciated, hardware know-how, software skills and
of cource good ideas!
regards
Markus, Martin and MikeLinux Distro for the N.E.R.D deviceMichael RumplerTue, 13 Mar 2007 11:01:59 GMTVMWare image available
http://projects.linuxtogo.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=77
The VMWare demo image to take a look at GPE Phone Edition is now available from the project files download section.
You can use it to get an impression about how the applications look like and how they are intended to be used. In theory you should be able to use a serial connected GSM modem on your host PC which the VMWare expects at /dev/GSM-Modem - we did not have time for testing - please report problems.
To power down the virtual machine you can select "Quit" from the menu.
Enjoy
