Nokia 770 as Orbiter

[archived]

Hi,

I found this post (http://plutohome.com/support/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=436&highlight=nokia+770 very interesting for me. I did some work to compile and run SDL Orbiter on the Nokia 770 (I'll share my results soon). It works fine on the Maemo emulator. But when I tried to run it on the real device I got following output:

Code:

Any ideas how to fix it?
I have one guess. Maybe the problem is in the free space because there is 70% of memory (not RAM) in use.

Thanks in advance.

looks like it cannot resolve hostname..

can you put ip in /etc/hosts or similar?

I specified dcerouter IP - host name in the /etc/hosts but it didnt' solve the problem. Moreover I grant access to Nokia770 to the pluto_main database. Also, when I run the Orbiter on the Maemo emulator I saw the same error message about unknown host but the Orbiter worked fine. Here is it log (from Maemo emulator):

I suspect that the problem can occure because there is not enough free space on the device to store some Orbiter data. I extended the root file system of Nokia770. Tonight I'm going to test it again.

Did you ever get it working?

Hi,

Please send me your Orbiter's log file at chris at plutohome.com and I'll take a look. Thanks.

Unfortunatelly no. POssible I do something wrong but I don't know what.

Hi Michael,

Sorry, I gave you a wrong email address. Please send the log file to chris.m at plutohome.com.

Thanks,
Chris M.

I think I know what's wrong. Every message sent between devices are serialized. The first 4 bytes from the messages are a magic number like 1234. Well, it seems that your tablet uses low endian and the pc where the router is big endian. (in router's log I saw "Badly formed message")

A solution would be for you to go in src/SerializeClass/serializeclass.h and modify it (maybe add a #ifdef USE_LOW_ENDIAN) to reverse the order for bytes.  Check the following functions:
Write_unsigned_long, Write_long and Read_long. Then recompile Orbiter and test it on the tablet.

Best regards,
Chris M.
