OMNewRotate 0.5.1 is out!

Hi,

I’ve just release a new version of OMNewRotate (source, it’s OpenPGP signature, an ipkg tested agains FSO M4.1 and it’s OpenPGP signature), the ‘Automagically Lazy Edition’ because it’s just like the ‘Lazy Edition’ but with Autotools magic. Yes, I know it doesn’t work well with suspend. I’ve just gotter suspend to work on my OpenMoko, so expect that it is fixed by 0.6.0.

From the ChangeLog:

2008-12-09 - 0.5.1 - Automagically lazy
	* same as 0.5.0 plus auto tools magic
	* desktop icon
	* places a starter script

  1. Did I mention omnewrotate was bitbaked directly from the svn revision of this release? Oh, I didn’t, but it was… 🙂

  4. based on the comment for startup in a previous post i did this
    i kill rotate before suspend: root@om-gta02 ~ $ echo ‘killall rotate’ > /etc/apm/suspend.d/11omnewrotate
    root@om-gta02 ~ $ chmod +x /etc/apm/suspend.d/11omnewrotate
    and for restart i copy from Xsession: root@om-gta02 ~ $ cp /etc/X11/Xsession.d/89omnewrotate /etc/apm/resume.d/

  5. in the ipk and the startup script should be /usr/bin/omnewrotate& instead of /usr/bin/rotate&
    so in my previous post replace killall rotate with killall omnewrotate

  6. Yes Kumar, I noticed that bug and corrected it yesterday.

    As I tested the suspend/resume scripts on my FSO M4.1, they didn’t work. Do they need to start with a number? Could that be my mistake?

    Anyway, those scripts are probably a mere workaround, the real solution is by knowing when it’s suspending/resuming, if possible through frameworkd.

  8. the numbers are for order only.it worked for me with 0.5.0 and SHR not the last image( the one from 28/11) but it doesn’t work anymore suspend.d seem to work but not rsume

  10. now it works with those two scripts:
    #!/bin/sh
    #/etc/apm/suspend.d/11omnewrotate
    echo ‘omnr suspend’ >> /home/root/omnr.log
    omnr=$(pidof omnewrotate)
    #echo $omnr
    if [ “$omnr” ]; then
    echo ‘omnr running,trying to stop’ >> /home/root/omnr.log
    killall omnewrotate >> /home/root/omnr.log
    else
    echo ‘omnr not running’ >> /home/root/omnr.log
    fi
    #!/bin/sh
    #/etc/apm/resume.d/89omnewrotate

    echo ‘omnr resume’ >> /home/root/omnr.log
    omnr=$(pidof omnewrotate)
    #echo $omnr
    if [ “$omnr” ]; then
    echo ‘omnr allready running’ >> /home/root/omnr.log
    else
    echo ‘omnr not running, trying to start’ >> /home/root/omnr.log
    omnewrotate&
    fi

    by reading the link, perhaps it was just because of the missing #!/bin/sh….

  11. yop this works fine
    #!/bin/sh
    #/etc/apm/suspend.d/11omnewrotate
    killall omnewrotate

    #!/bin/sh
    #/etc/apm/resume.d/89omnewrotate
    omnewrotate&
