Hey, I just noticed this question. Not sure if this is what you want, but I'm using GStreamer for Orecchiette's screen-recording feature. The command-line version of what I'm using should be something like:

Code:

gst-launch ximagesrc ! video/x-raw-rgb,framerate=5/1 ! ffmpegcolorspace ! dspmp4venc ! queue ! matroskamux ! filesink location=somefilename.mkv

This has been working pretty well for me...

Great performance!
It uses between 50 and 60% CPU time on my device and should even work without overclocking.

Yes, I don't overclock my N900s, so I can say with certainty that it works without overclocking. :)

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

I have posted sulu's images on qole.org, along with their MD5SUMs.
I discovered, after I had uploaded them, that the jessie image isn't really ready yet, so I'll just post the wheezy link here:

debian_wheezy4sulu_armel.img.lzma
MD5

I'm quite proud of the fact that the downloads are https secured. If nothing else, you don't have to worry about MitM attacks :)

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

I uploaded a new Jessie/armhf image:
http://netload.in/dateiVsZXxAQnf8/de...f.img.lzma.htm

Code:

$ md5sum debian_jessie1sulu_armhf.img*

95d2fd7b32b83c930c0a5313144d4988  debian_jessie1sulu_armhf.img

0dff0629ad48e6b772993b173c82c02a  debian_jessie1sulu_armhf.img.lzma

It's just a dist-upgraded version of my first image, with glibc 2.19-15 and my own bugs fixed (resolv.conf, libc6/libc-bin on hold). If you fixed the bugs yourself there's no reason to switch.
You can find the upgraded glibc packages in this archive:
http://netload.in/dateieZ0zLQI5T3/je...es.tar.bz2.htm

Code:

$ md5sum jessie1sulu_armhf_ed_chroot_binaries.tar.bz2 

ec09460a0cfb90e059674a33e15311c2  jessie1sulu_armhf_ed_chroot_binaries.tar.bz2

Please remember (I think I didn't when I made the 1st image), if you manually upgrade packages that were on hold, they won't be on hold anymore, and you'll have to repeat the procedure:

Code:

echo libc6 hold | dpkg --set-selections

echo libc-bin hold | dpkg --set-selections

qole kindly offered to host the image. So you'll get a more reliable link soon.

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

I've put sulu's new Jessie image on qole.org.

debian_jessie1sulu_armhf.img.lzma
MD5

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

hello i've installed sulu's image but cannot change the language to english even when i try with dpkg - reconfigure locales it doesn't bring the language choice. openoffice does not launch and only lxmusic player is there as compared to the first one i install which was the one that comes first when selecting which to install. plz hlp

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

@abdel_95:
Which image did you install? It sounds like one of my earliest Wheezy attempts.
Please use the latest image (highest number) of whatever release you prefer!

@qole:
In case you need some free space on your server, feel free to delete any of my older images, as the newer ones essentially make them obsolete.
At the moment I consider only these to be of any use:
http://qole.org/files/debian_wheezy3sulu_armhf.img.lzma
http://qole.org/files/debian_wheezy4sulu_armel.img.lzma
http://qole.org/files/debian_jessie1sulu_armhf.img.lzma

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

Please, how can i make gps data available to ED's gpsd ?

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

I found that devices that are enabled in Maemo before you start Easy Debian are available in the chroot also. I confess that I don't know how to use the GPS in Linux / Maemo, but it should be available...

This thread suggests that the N9's GPS was a proprietary format, so I suspect you may have similar problems with the N900.
