Package uniscy_demo

Would be a useful tool to test various functionality/features. Pavel wrote:

Would it be possible to package unicsy_demo?
https://github.com/pavelmachek/unicsy_demo Right now it is useful for
driver debugging, for example it can estimate battery remaining even
when battery is not calibrated. It can also reboot / poweroff the
machine, and read various sensors... When ofono is integrated, it can
also initiate calls and handle SMSes...

And, regarding packaging:

It should go to /usr/share/unicsy, dependencies are python-gtk2 for UI
parts and python-dbus ofono for the phone stuff.

I can apply patches with the debian/ directory, or give you repository
access, or attempt to do it myself (but I may need some help).

@pavelmachek - I will try to look at this soon. I have a question, though. I haven't used/run uniscy_demo yet but it seems to do a lot of initialisation. Will some of that initialisation bite (or: fight with) the running system daemons, or should it mostly be restricted to what parts the user wants to use? We don't -use- ofono currently, but it's running on the N900 by default, so that should be fine. But if it tries to set brightness, it might have to fix for that with mce, for example.

unicsy_demo can do a lot, yes. (It can basically turn xfce4-desktop into something usable on phone). But it does not mean you want to run everything there. Useful parts are: * ofone -- calls, SMSes, battery monitoring, airplane mode, setup of data connection, contacts. * demo.py -- for testing, demonstration that hardware sensors and various LEDs work. Eventually, needs for unicsy-demo should disappear. But it should be useful in the meantime :-).

I tried to start unicsy_demo, and it doesn't quite work yet (either user or root):

ofono is definitely running:

Starting ofone gets me further:

Let me reboot and try again - I am seeing this:

Reboot got me further, but I forgot to disable/remove the PIN.

[MerlijnWajer]

Works, gtk2 style makes it look a bit weird :D

Not sure why it says alpine. ;)

[MerlijnWajer]

I bumped version to 0.5 in debian/changelog because tags for previous versions existed (0.4, etc).

https://maedevu.maemo.org/leste/pool/main/u/unicsy-demo/

I've forked the repo to the orga, to ease building: https://github.com/maemo-leste/unicsy_demo

[MerlijnWajer]

Please let me know if you don't like the version bump for the repo. I think we can close this issue.
Thanks for doing most of the packaging work! I didn't see that you already did that before.

[pavelmachek]

Thanks for doing this! I have merged your packaging changes back to my tree, and tagged release "0.5" to be consistent with packaged version. ofone is indeed most interesting entry-point. Just one copy should be run with "-p" option -- meaning primary; that one will handle incoming calls and sms-es. (It can also play ringtone -- but required file is not likely to exist on Maemo lese -- see ./ofone/notify.py). "Stock" gtk2 theme is probably caused by running ofone as root. It should be possible to run it as a user (but setup is not trivial; ofone needs to be able to do sudo and dbus needs to be configured to allow ofone connection to non-root). Another interesting entry-point is demo/demo.py, which can be used for hardware testing.

[MerlijnWajer]

Good point about -p. I've already been able to receive and send sms. Calls not yet because I need to package/start libcmtspeech and the current SIM in there doesn't support calls (data only sim that can do sms)

[pavelmachek]

You don't really need "libcmtspeech" to test the calls... you'll just not get audio :-).

[MerlijnWajer]

But I want audio :D and I want to package libcmtspeech.
I've already been able to start a call using mdbus2, so I want something more out of this. ;)
