Artigos em Inglês???

   Publicado por Rui Seabra

Sim, tenho publicado alguns artigos em Inglês, mas não é porque tenha decidido passar a fazê-lo… apenas porque a tag OpenMoko passou a fazer parte do planet.openmoko.org e eles agradecem que a malta escreva em idiomas que sejam mais amplamente compreendidos como o Inglês e o Francês (embora não proibam outros idiomas).

OpenMoko Rotate 0.2.1

   Publicado por Rui Seabra

Yes, it’s out, release early, release often, yadada yadada. I’m grumpy because of less sleep time than usual, and a whole day of ITIL Foundation V3 lesson (3 more days of it, plus an exam later on).

Get it here: rotate-0.2.1.tar.gz (signature)

Anyway, here’s the good news:

$ head -5 ChangeLog
2008-09-22 - 0.2.1
        * more heuristic fixes (hopefully really fix when laying around, and
          turned up)
        * workaround with alarm() for the accelerometer read-hang problem
        * sleeping for 100ms seems to get cpu usage quite low (0% to 0.9%)

OpenMoko Rotate 0.2.0

   Publicado por Rui Seabra

Woke up 2h earlier because of a problem, solved quickly, took the extra time to greatly improve the heuristics.

If you haven’t tried it before, now it’s the time to try. If you did, NOW is the time to try again :)

Fetch it now: rotate-0.2.0.tar.gz (signature)

First brown paperbag release of new Rotate

   Publicado por Rui Seabra

Oops, heuristics were bad, very bad. Still has quirks, but at least now they’re not so shameful.

There’s a new release: 0.1.1 (signature)

$ head -2 ChangeLog
2008-09-21 - 0.1.1 - First brown paper bag release
	* improves heuristics
$ cat KNOWN_ISSUES
Known Issues:
	* reading from the accelerometer hangs after X time/reads
	* some heuristic values may need finetunning (specially when
	  laying around, turned up)
