Strangely enough, when I tested now it looked OK as well, but only when outside with plenty of sky visible.
So maybe it isn't A-GPS but cell tower location (since indoors I get no location updates)....

Probably one day, but not with just CSSU update. CSSU is meant to provide patches/fixes/new features that can't be easily added by packages in extras, for example. so as for hostmode (i personally don't like "USB on the go" name, it's just marketing chitter), there is HEN project, and i think it will be keep that way. Also, power kernel is not going to be merged into CSSU.

I also hope that feemangordon work will allow us to watch/record 720p video - i hope that he won't get on ambition and will not stop working on it, he seems very upset that pali don't wanted to include his packages in way that break video watching.

Anyway, I'm with pali on this - i also can't imagine including package that will ''break'' userland media playing - should be included in parallel with userland updates available in extras devel at least. When i just think about massive outcry and 300+ pages of bug reporting about broken videos here, i feel cold ;P If just temperature/10 thing spammed this topic so much, how we will look with "upgraded" thing that make videos unplayable, and we can only reply by "it lacks userland application by now, sta tuned..."? Brrrr....

so, i hope that no one will get to high in ambition (sorry if i interpreted that posts totally wrong, what also may be the case here), and continue hard work, cause i can't imagine someone other to deliver such patches as freemangordon's - sorry if someone else is able to do it, but i haven't heard about such a person Yea, we REALLY appreciate your work freeman, and hope for more!

It's even more... USB host and USB-on-the-go are two different things. Hostmode is what it says (being USB host or master), but USB OTG is actually the protocol that allows host and client to negotiate who is master, or to even swap roles.

Oh, somthing that could potentially break some functions of your device in the development repositorys? who would suggest something so reckless?

Everyone knows that 'good' software just works without any testing whatsoever and that the development repos is just where we hide stuff because we feel nubes are not good enough to use it.

So im totally with you, lets keep all of these stupid development packages OUT of the development repos just to keep the dumbasses happy.

Man I love your writing style :P Back on topic: the perfect situation (in my oppinion) would be freemangordon also joining CSSU team preparing packages to be compatible with both old kernel and kernel with his dsp pathes (it has to be possible, it just has... even via some external config file read at startup of every broken deamons and system services) and, when this update is pushed, further work on implementing 720 hd video playback in kernel (and obviously making this new kernel-power package depend on CSSU, but only when CSSU release reaches 'stable' state). This way 720 playback would be possible with some new power kernel release and with stock kernel (or older power kernels) media would still work as previously. That's my oppinion on topic, but there's not much sense writing it here, because neither I nor you reading this thread are to decide (unless someone in charge of CSSU and powerful enough to make such decision reads this words)

@ estel ... looks like you have missed my post with patch that do not break anything. No problem, could happen to everyone this thread is so bloated these days. http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=452

Sounds issues as above are due to gstreamer0.10-av (now updated so fixed(????)). For most, that package was pulled in by a changed dependency for ogg-support between versions 1.5 and 1.7.

Both power47 and CSSU have been blamed for gstreamer0.10-av's sins.

We should hang the developer for very bad timing :P He unfortunately released buggy package in the same time as some cssu update and kernel update... Releasing it few days later would save a few posts from both threads. As well as people complaining thay cannot boot while they manually made some changes and made typos in filenames (at least two people from this thread).

News:
* Compiled more usb host modules
* Backported bq27x00_battery module (battery status)
* Some patches from garage projects
* Multiboot support
* Fixed problem with JoikuSpot_Bouncer

Update:
Use Hildon Application Manager or via apt-get

Step 1 Installation:
In Hildon Application Manager install package: Linux Kernel for power user
Or via apt-get package: kernel-power-flasher

Step 2 Multiboot support:
First see step 1.
Then in Hildon Application Manager install package: Linux Kernel for power user (boot image)
Or via apt-get package: kernel-power-bootimg

All work is in my power-kernel git repository (fork of garage project):
git clone http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pali/kernel-power.git

This values are exported by HAL, not by my program/module, so I cannot change it. And it is correct, see specification battery.charge_level of HAL. BME has bad values (it use its own values which is not correct for HAL).

Do not create duplicate messages!!! (Remove duplicate from other threads!)
