[Angstrom-distro-users] How to try out the new openmoko ui on your angstrom

[Lukas Gorris]

#Converting from GPE to mokoui2 in angstrom

#get rid of GPE stuff and old xserver
ipkg remove gpe-dm gpe-session-scripts gpe-login xserver-common


#install xserver-kdrive and openmokoe stuff
ipkg install xserver-kdrive-common xserver-nodm-init openmoko-session2

#packages beginning with "task-openmoko"
ipkg install task-openmoko-base task-openmoko-debug task-openmoko-demo 
task-openmoko-examples task-openmoko-finger task-openmoko-games 
task-openmoko-linux task-openmoko-net task-openmoko-phone 
task-openmoko-pim task-openmoko-ui

ipkg install openmoko-icon-theme-standard2 openmoko-theme-standard2

#unfortunately there seems to be no neod package available from the 
feeds right now which is important in order to make your openmoko 
session start. For my machine (akita) this armv4te one which I found in 
www.angstrom-distribution.org/reop worked fine:
wget 
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/feed/armv4t/base/neod_0.1.0+svnr2746-r0_armv4t.ipk
ipkg install neod_0.1.0+svnr2746-r0_armv4t.ipk

#If your machine is i686 based try this:
#wget 
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/feed/i686/base/neod_0.1.0+svn20070823-r0_i686.ipk
#ipkg install neod_0.1.0+svn20070823-r0_i686.ipk

#reboot
shutdown -r now

#in order to make thing look any good you need to run "Look and Feel" 
from angstrom-gpe-task-settings package and select "openmoko-standard-2" 
as "Desktop Theme" in the Theme tab

#have fun and let me know if it is working for you

#greetings Lukas
