Hi all,
now there are new stable r18 images [1] available for SIMpad. I am glad to tell you that there is also an opie image for your beloved device. The opie image works fine except of the brightness control and the two extra buttons (joypad works). Please report bugs related to those images to the bugtracker [2] and make them block bug no 2186 if it is an opie related or bug no 2595 if it is SIMpad related. If you want to have some other images build for SIMpad please write a mail to the list or this forum. best regards mr nice 1 http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/relea.../images/simpad/ 2 http://bugs.openembedded.org |

QUOTE(mr_nice @ Aug 31 2008, 07:09 PM)  The opie image works fine except of the brightness control and the two extra buttons (joypad works). Is the brightness control still not working? Is it just the panel applet, or can the display not be dimmed at all? Just wanted to try out the Opie image, but I need to be able to dim the display. BTW No progess since August? I mean, not even new testing/autobuilt images any more? |

It is just the panel applet. In newer versions of opie it works. I don't know when new opie releases get into angstrom stable. it works with angstrom unstable. currently the autobuilder does not build unstable images for simpad. I build some from time to time. I can offer to upload them. But for unstable there is currently no konqe.
You can use the stable release and change the birghtness with a command. e.g. echo 200 > /sys/class/backlight/simpad-mq200-bl/brightness you may also edit the file 0 - 254 are valid values. with writing 0 or 1 to /sys/class/simpad/latch_cs3/display_on you can toggle display on off. There are some plans for r19 image but i lost track about it. best regards mr nice |
