Hi everyone,
I am quite new to this list and this my first message. I'm doing my final
year degree for Software Engineering i was hopping
to get some ideas or suggestions for my final year project. I'm very keen to
develop a embedded system but i don't have any ideas.
I thought you guys can help me get some challenging ideas which might
contribute back to the community. Other project's are
also welcomed. I would prefer if it's challenging as I believe the only way
to learn it is to build it.

Ok my 2 cents. A hardware based smart brute forcer, as a keyboard hid.
A security tool of course.

I just thought about this idea this morning while driving to office.

If fax can send image of the document, why can't we make/modify fax machine
to send the soft copy of the document itself?

Fax machine scanned the document and convert it to image, then send the
"data bits" of the image through phone line to the fax machine at the
receiving site. The fax machine then reconstruct the "data bits" into image
again.

Take out the scanning part, transfer/upload the document to the sending fax
machine, send the data bits, the receiving machine store it in built-in
flash storage.

The transport is still same, but the input and output is different.

Can you make that into an embedded system?

That's what all those all-in-one printers do anyway.  You could
take an existing fax machine, have it connect with a old standalone
modem and "hard-wire" the phone ports and then send and receive
the fax via the modem.  The modem could be plugged into a PC
running hylafax and you have a functional fax and scanner system.

I'm not interested with the fax or the image of the fax. I'm interested to
send real softcopy file to user at the other side. The transport is fax
communication protocol.

This will bypass the need to have a computer, an Internet account (most
probably dial-up), just to transfer a simple file.

With this modified fax, all you need is just a pair of fax machine that
understand each other how to send file, instead of sending the fax image.

Navyn: brute force device acting as keyboard it only works on a system where
they only need a PIN to be autohenticated
other than that i find no use or doesn't fit practically..

Sharuzzaman: The idea you gave i think is already implemented in Linux Fax
utilities..(eg. Hylafax)..

Guys thanks for the ideas. Give me more ideas really *appreciate *it a lot.

That's cool!

But requires subscription from the provider.

Well it depends on how far you want to take your embedded system and if 
its a final year project basis - it should not be to "involved" and in 
turn a copycat of something in the market would be just as good and 
realistic and not necessary to be entirely IT centric.

An example would be a device that you can clip onto your pen or pencil 
that will tell you how much you "write" in a day - trivial as it sounds.

Other things:
- some random number generator
- embedded PCI card that will do all the Netflows (collectors) for you - 
and I will buy one if you can get it together.

Jayaseelan - when you have the time and if you are not too far away, drop 
me a line and we can help you explore your ideas and enthusiasm further.

Hi,

I'm new to Malaysian Open Source forum or mailing list like this one. 
Just wondering how involved is Malaysian into Open Source software 
development, any example of Malaysian written Open Source software?

Thanks

erk, sounds you have to create a new discussion thread.
Malaysians are heavily involved in FOSS world, ranged from low level
(writing drivers, kernel patch) to UI level (translation).
Most work done on application level.

a much better mechanism, similar to what you're suggesting, is to use the
fax machines as a modem/router. the two machines dial, negotiate link
level protocol, then with PPP between them over the link level protocol,
you can literally ftp the file over. 

however, this kind of device is already present through existing routers
and the like.

that's exactly how a fax machine works, it scans any document, and sends
it as data to the receiving side, where its demodulated and printed out
on either thermal paper or on normal paper.

i believe there's a pen type device, which in addition to acting like a
regular ballpoint, also applies handwriting recognition to store a digital
ascii copy of whatever you write, so you can later download it into your
PC.

good idea.

it would be better if all the hassle could be shielded from end user so that
they can just transfer the file without having to tinker with anything. just
dial the fax number, select the file, and wait until it finish transferring.

before giving suggestions: what is your skill set? what are you good at?
what are your areas of interest? how much effort do you wish to expend?

Hi MyOSS folks,

I'm Wen Lin from Melbourne.  I happen to "Balek Kampong" in Malaysia till
mid Feb 09.  Just wondering whether you have any MyOSS Meetup planned?  If
so, I would like to come over to KL (from Melaka) to meet up with some of
you folks, to catch up with FOSS development & news in Malaysia.

Your response will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Messing around with Arduino board sounds a lot of fun to get started.

if you have a good background in all/some of these areas, then you have
many options available.

the next four questions are:

a) what are the areas /you/ are interested in? we may be able to suggest
foss projects to hack on based on your interest areas. embedded systems
is a pretty wide area of research (its like saying you are interested in
laptop technology). narrowing it down may help.

b) what do your supervisors/lecturers want you to do?

c) can you reconcile (a) and (b) ?

d) it has been my experience that a number of universities/lecturers in
malaysia are hostile to open source. are they ok with you hacking on
oss?

which sounds like a pretty ridiculous reason, to me.

I can drop embedded system and do an application. I would go for security
enhancement
or integrate security with a another system. (eg. like rsa encrypted mail
mime).
Earlier I had a plan of automation of electrical with perimeter security
using a embbedded device to control.

They haven't been assigned to me yet. But generally they want me to
concentrate on documentation as usual..

not just say things about it.

Firstly to all i'm sorry not specifying or saying what type of embedded
system was running in my head.
I was aiming to use a *Small Board Computers(SBC)* can be seen here

The idea i had was automation and security integration which will be
controlled by SBC.

FreeBSD Jails - Lightweight Virtualisation:
Did you even notice that FOSS.my website server was swapping 2GB? No?  
Then find out how.

Full on virtualisation takes up a lot of resources as each virtual  
instance is treated as a separate machine with disk and memory  
allocation. This may not be the best solution for all use cases. For  
most web applications and development work, a sandbox that shares a  
single kernel with it's own IP is far more efficient. This talk will  
go through a basic introduction, some tricks in getting more out of  
Jails as well as live demo of the setup of Gambit, Inigo's current  
server.

About the Speaker:
Khairil Yusof is a FOSS developer who currently resides in Subang  
Jaya, Malaysia a residential hub just outside of Kuala Lumpur.

He is currently working as an ICT consultant for Inigo an ICT  
consulting company he founded that specialises in Plone and Python  
development. It was founded on the premise of providing a better  
working environment for talented and creative FOSS developers. It was  
also created as a socially responsible company that caters to life  
balance of employees and also to the wider community.

Hi all,

Just wanna highlight this one regarding the OLPC. If you ever wish to contribute to OLPC project but still don't know how to do it, this will help you. By using you expertism in Bahasa Melayu, you can translate OLPC content to our hometown language. 

Browse to http://dev.laptop.org/translate and register a new username and start translating. One day, I hope that OLPC XO laptop on the hand of every child in Malaysia and your translation would make them easier to understand the cute little Sugar Interface for their education.

Make your move now, change the world...

Lazim,

Lazim,

Sugar is to encourage visual representation of the desktop. Translation
should not be that much work for those who have experience.

For things like this I shall suggest people with graphic-fu skills to
contribute.

Kampung kids now can understand English better, especially reading - I
saw bunch of kids playing online game on weekdays. Maybe Science/Math
teaching in schools help them on that. At least assisting them playing
games if not scoring in exams.

Subject: [myoss] OLPC Translation
Message-ID: <602154.92569.qm@web53310.mail.re2.yahoo.com>

Dear all,

As an Bahasa Melayu translation administrator for OLPC, I would like to invite each and everyone of you to become Bahasa Melayu translator for OLPC project. Currently, there's about 6 people struggle so hard to translating the OLPC content into Bahasa Melayu. The translation process is so simple even the a primary can do it. Just register your username in Pootle server at http://dev.laptop.org/translate and login to start translating. 

The interface of translation system will show several short sentences and what you have to do is to change the sentences into Bahasa Melayu. There are 6 project currently running to be translated by us and we hope that you'll join us do the translation.

There's some people think that translation is just wasting time because kids today already talk and write in English. It's true and not true because not every kids got the opportunity to learn English and some of them still got problem reading the Bahasa Melayu. This project might help them in the future. I'm pretty sure that the OLPC not targeting to give this XO laptop to all those kids that live in a rich family and speak English everyday.

There's some rumors says that the Ministry start to get interested in this rugged, small laptop project and evaluating it to become the assistance device for all school in Malaysia. Join now and do something for our own child's future.

Mohd Lazim,

Sadly when I tried to register, I got this message
'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 4: ordinal not in
range(128)

I wonder what's wrong.

Looks like somebody's python code is mixing string encodings.

Sorry to not be clear earlier. I actually did check that page but there was
no roles and responsibilities tagged to the jobs mentioned. Is there a page
with the roles and responsibilites attached to the job by any chance. Thanks
for your help.

That's really weird, I forgot whether I'm facing the same error during the registration or not. Which browser did you use, Firefox or IE? Kaeru, is this related to programming in python, do you have any suggestion regarding this. I'll try to forward this problem to the OLPC. 

After searching for this error, I found this http://en.forum.laptop.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=1985 but it not explaining everything. 

BTW, are you registering your account using a word that's not in ascii code.

I wonder what's wrong.

 Is this related to my system's font setting? If it is, I could not find
where to change that on my Lenny KDE 4.1.4.

I tried using ie, firefox and changing the encoding to iso-8859-1 still 
nothing
different passwords, usernames and so on. Looks like a server side problem

Hello Malaysia,

I've ask about the registration problem with the OLPC Pootle server and this is what they said
===============================================
Lazim,

A number of users have seen this error, but it does not seem to prevent them from registering or translating.  

This has been seen before:
http://en.forum.laptop.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=1985

It seems to be some error in the python code in jtoolkit having to do with non-ASCII characters in a username in the database.   I suspect it has something to do with the fact that we are using a somewhat older version of Pootle.  

Please have your colleagues send an e-mail to me (off-list) and I will check their accounts and help them with activation if they did not get an activation e-mail from the registration process.

Dear Navyn,

For your information, registration mail activation sending takes time. If you still don't get the e-mail activation, let me know so that I'll activate it manually. Just tell me what username did you use in Pootle and I'll do the rest.

Dear all,

I'm so sorry about what happen to some of us during the registration process in OLPC Pootle server. They facing several problem that need some fixing at server-side.

After chatting with Chris in the IRC, he explained that currently, they're working on upgrading the Pootle server and fixing some bug that we've gone through during registration. He apologize for the incovenient, and hope that all of use can start register at Pootle server after he fixed the problem.

I'll inform all of us if the Pootle server already fixed and ready to running back to normal. So, don't feel really sad on what happen and please wait for the new birth of Pootle server soon.

Mohd Lazim,

Dear Umarzuki Mochlis and all,
?
Sayamindu and Chris tried hard to make the Pootle server up and running. There might be some problem with the server that?reside the Pootle so that all the registration that came from certain person give some error.
?
If you or anybody?else?really want to do the translation and don't even care about how your account been registered, I'm suggesting that you can let me or Sayamindu or Chris do the registration for you. Just send an e-mail contain information below:
?
Username:
Full Name:
E-mail address:
?
Below is what Chris send to localization mailing list telling the current status of translation server or Pootle.
?
========================================
From: Chris Leonard <cjlhomeaddress at gmail.com>
Subject: [Localization] [ANNOUNCE] Progress on new Pootle server
?
All,
There has been quite a lot of activity going on in the background that sets the stage for these comments. Sayamindu (with cooperation from OLPC sysadmin and Sugar Labs systems) has been preparing a new Pootle server for use. I mentioned this in an earlier e-mail to the list:
?
http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/localization/2009-January/001915.html
?
That work has moved ahead nicely. The general picture is this. OLPC has dedicated a server (different than the current Pootle server) that will reside in an MIT co-location facility under OLPC's existing arrangements. Server administration duties on that server will be shared by OLPC sysadmin staff and SugarLabs systems people). I have tried to step up to do some of the Pootle admin tasks (users, projects, etc.) to take just a little bit of the load off of Sayamindu and sharing messages like this with the localization list is part of that. The new Pootle instance will be an upgraded version (1.2.1) and some other tools have been upgraded as well. 
?
The existing site is running:
Pootle 1.1.0rc2
Translate Toolkit 1.1.1rc4
jToolkit 0.7.8
Kid 0.9.6
ElementTree 1.2.6
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul 31 2008, 17:31:22) [GCC 4.2.3 (Ubuntu
4.2.3-2ubuntu7)] (on linux2/posix)
?
The new site is running:
Pootle 1.2.1
Translate Toolkit (1, 3, 0)
jToolkit 0.7.8
Kid 0.9.6
ElementTree 1.2.6
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Oct 5 2008, 19:24:49) [GCC 4.3.2] (on
linux2/posix)
?
The data from the existing Pootle instance (all strings and users) have been migrated over to the new Pootle instance, but there is still a great deal of set up work to do before it is ready for production use. Sayamindu is working on fiddling all of the bits on the back end to connect Pootle up with the correct repos for commits of strings and stuff like that. When the switchover occurs, and hopefully it will be in the next few weeks, the goal is for it to be as simple as this. You go to the same URL as always, you login with the same password as always, your strings and privs are all there, you may notice that the color scheme on the front page is blue instead of green, but that is pretty much it. If all goes well we will
be taking all the stuff we want (strings, users, privs) with us to a newer, faster, more current, less buggy environment and leaving behind all the stuff we don't want (registration bugs, old versions, etc.). Now, just being realistic, there usually some little hitches in any migration project and a good measure of cooperation and patience will be needed from all to smooth out the inevitable rough spots, but I have actually logged onto the new server and Pootle instance and it is beginning to look very much like a shiny new home for Sugar / OLPC localization efforts. More news will come out as this project moves forward (rapidly).
As for timing, you may ask if it really make sense to do this at this stage of the release cycle while localizers are busily translating and build systems are hungrily asking for committed PO files in preparation for an officially declared build. Well, it is not really an ideal time, but there never really is a perfect time for reworking infrastructure that is in
constant use, but it is important that this get done while Sayamindu has the time to dedicate to it and since he is doing the heavy lifting, now seems like as good a time as any. Please just keep on translating your projects and especially (language admins) committing the PO files when they have been finished/reviewed. Every effort will be made to not lose a single word of your work (msgmerges and fresh rsyncs can quickly merge the two parallel instances to synchronize them) and to keep the disruption down to an
absolute minimum. 
?
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
?
