Great. How do you think, when will it be in the ubuntu repository?
That's true. What is the metapackage? Because it seems that I've tried lubuntu-desktop and it wasn't there. Or maybe there was something wrong.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/n900#Known_Problems
And feel free to edit

I think I will drop 11.04 from the script unless someone wants to test them. Please say if you want 11.04 support.

Microphone in oneric (testing) works (tested with sox'es rec)
Headphone jack does not work (at least with no additional installs or configs)

there is a newer precompiled ofone version here:

http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool...53-2_armel.deb

(maybe I can not check it normally, but at least it does not complain when beeng installed, as the earlier (0.41) which goes with oneric )

and also
(add the start of the link as in the previous address) o/ofono-phonesim/ofono-phonesim_1.9-1_armel.deb
(how to use it?)

trying to compile now ofono (1.0) from here:


git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ofono/ofono.git
apt-get install automake libtool libglib2.0-dev libdbus-1-dev
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool....6-1_armel.deb
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool....6-1_armel.deb
dpkg -i libcap-ng0_0.6.6-1_armel.deb libcap-ng-dev_0.6.6-1_armel.deb
apt-get install libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libbluetooth-dev
./bootstrap-configure

make

Do you have sound working otherwise? (not through headphones)

Int_ua,
yes, (I wrote there up) sound in oneric testing works, I can listen music with vlc, record with 'rec' (using built in mic) and hear the recorded sound. (The recording level somehow is low, but that is quite another question).

By the way:
The button '+ and -' treated (at least I see that in mc with lxde) as F7 and F8.

Compiling ofono 1.0,
finally I got this error:

Alas, the message (from linker) is not quite informative
Maybe somebody has any idea?
(do we need atmodem driver for the case? maybe just exclude it in config?)

Current post has been deleted as not being informative

Trying to install it on my microSD 16GO (class 10) following this tutorial but have troubles.

Have formatted it with Gparted: one partition 10Go ext2, one partition 1GO linux-swap, the rest formating in fat32.

Then have downloaded the "precise-preinstalled-mobile-armel+omap.img.gz " image (according to the link on the tutorial page).

(witch is my mSD ext3 part) succeed. But then the ext3 part seems to be corrupt (format is not recognized by gparted), and the fsck.ext3 /dev/sdc1 return the error:

Same result when I do:
according to this page. (note that after the gunzip, I don't obtain a ".raw" file...)

Don't know if I use the right image file (or if I should use this one: "kubuntu-mobile-11.04-preinstalled-mobile-armel+omap.img.gz")...

Could you give me some explanation?
Thanks.

I think, the problem is that the image's partition is formatted to ext4 (or btrfs, how is it called?), and you 'cat' it to the device, where in the partition table it is written as ext3 (83). You may try to check if it is true, but if you need just to install (and not so much to learn details ), use int_ua's script (on page 12, if I remember) - it is done quite well and there you do not care about these problems, but have the full freedom to make your own changes/corrections.
