Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

Could someone recompile sixpair to run on the N900? It would be cool if I could use h-e-n to pair up my PS3 controller.

EDIT: I just downloaded the Maemo SDK VMware and recompiled sixpair, works fine.

how can i do this? i want to set up USB host on my N900

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

Hello again. I finally got around to trying to connect by Neo Freerunner to my N900 via USB with the N900 as host and it doesn't seem to work. Attached are syslog extracts from the N900, from the Neo, and from my Debian box when the same Neo is plugged into it.

Any expert interpretations are much appreciated. :)

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

N900 can provide only 200mA, Neo FR probably takes 500mA happily on detecting VBUS.
though this

doesn't really support that assumption.
I noticed you selected lowspeed? Maybe fullspeed would be better?

I see a

OOPS alike thing, though I more wonder why bme started

HTH, will investigate further eventually

thanks for it information (N900 can provide only 200mA)

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

I noticed that the debian log mentioned fullspeed, so I tried that too, but it appeared to give an identical result.

If I had two N900s I'd try connecting them together in this way. Maybe someone else does and can try it?

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

I flashed an N900 from another one, used high speed and a high speed hub.

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

I've tested this with a few USB flash drives and they all appear to work fine. Tested so far and working:
Sandisk Cruzer Blade (16GB)
Corsair Flash Voyager (64GB)
Kingston Data Traveller mini10 (8GB)

Thanks for all the hard work guys!

This isn't a big problem but for some reason the mount button doesn't seem to work when I have the "open file browser when mounted" option enabled

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

This is just too awesome :)

Had already kernel power 46 from devel installed.
Installed H-e-n (Hostmode Gui ) 0.3 from devel.
Installed first extmou (1.0.5) but had problems with mouse cursor moving and buttons. Uninstalled it and installed Bt-hid-scripts2 (0.13-1fremantle1) and it worked properly.

Plugged in Kingston 2gb and it worked.
Plugged in Microsoft wireless mouse 3500 and it worked.
Next going to try some card readers and more stuff.

Thanks for giving huge grin on my face :)
