**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Dec 29 02:59:58 2014 Dec 29 04:44:51 hi.. is there anyway to send vibrate dbus signal from ED to maemo ? will it work ?? Dec 29 04:46:17 and, second one, how do get to use sylpheed natively on maemo ?? it did compile in scratchbox. Should i compile it on device ?? or how do i make a deb from the compiled sylphed in scratchbox ??? Dec 29 04:46:19 newbieAlert: D-bus signals: http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Jebba/DBUS Dec 29 04:47:55 newbieAlert: Do you have a source-deb? You could just push it to auto-builder, to publish it in extras-devel: https://garage.maemo.org/extras-assistant/index.php Dec 29 04:49:36 compiled in scratchbox: what's the result of having it compiled in scratchbox? deb-package, binary-file, or something? http://wiki.maemo.org/Developer_FAQ Dec 29 04:51:12 newbieAlert: vibrate dbus signal, for example: http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Jebba/DBUS#dbus-send-vibrate Dec 29 04:51:16 Oksana: its more like 'make-install', it will simply push the packages to its appropriate folders. Dec 29 04:51:34 Oksana: thanks that did work from chroot. Dec 29 04:52:13 Oksana: Oksana can we invke hildon-notification from ED ?? i mean, sylpheed is capable of executing commands at the time of new message arrival. Dec 29 04:52:25 using sylpheed from ED/. Dec 29 04:52:59 Hildon-notification: http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Jebba/DBUS#dbus-send-hello-world Dec 29 04:53:45 oksana: thanks :) :) solved two of my problems. :D now please solve the third one :D :D Dec 29 04:54:30 Hmm, you need to figure out how to convert it from simple makefile to debian packaging... http://wiki.maemo.org/Packaging Dec 29 04:55:24 I have done debian packaging for Maemo 5, a few times, but not recently. Dec 29 04:56:19 And a link: http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Packaging,_Deploying_and_Distributing Dec 29 04:56:43 Oksana: btw, i really need to ask thi s, while i do ./conigure in scratchbox, do i need to specify target ??? like ./confgiure -target=armel ?? Dec 29 04:57:59 Oksana: hey i managed to get the things in .tar.gz, by make dist :) :) trying urther. Dec 29 05:00:00 If you have source-package (you got .tar.gz, right? :-) ) then next step would be to feed it to auto-builder? https://garage.maemo.org/extras-assistant/index.php?target=invitation_request Dec 29 05:00:24 Sorry, https://garage.maemo.org/extras-assistant/index.php Dec 29 05:01:11 Oksana: i have a doubt .. how do i know that the thing i build is for armel ?? i did ./configure -- target=armel but make was done from fremantle_x86. Dec 29 05:02:18 Auto-builder will specify the target itself. Be it fremantle (maemo 5), diablo (maemo 4), or something. If you have source-package which you can feed to auto-builder, it will worry about targets himself, I hope. Dec 29 05:02:49 If the build fails, you can read the log, figure out where it complains, and why, and submit it again. Dec 29 05:03:05 I do not know much about configure and make, sorry. :-( Dec 29 05:04:09 Oksana: thanks :) you made my morning :) Dec 29 05:06:24 Ask questions, I will do my best to answer (within 24 hours). You can also post at http://talk.maemo.org; somebody here will know a bit more about this. Dec 29 10:10:21 anybody here use smscon? Dec 29 10:11:55 I did at one point... now I probably would need to set it up again Dec 29 10:14:07 sounds perfect incase you lose your phone Dec 29 10:14:54 yes, it works. /me uses it Dec 29 10:15:46 and recently i tried a new SIM on the device .. few minutes later my sister called to see if all is OK, as I had set her number as the master number Dec 29 11:22:37 hey all! i'm looking for replacement chassis screws for my n900. is there anyone here that might have two or three spare ones? mine's falling apart :'( Dec 29 11:24:21 it's the two screws that are located along the edge where the volume, power and camera buttons are... Dec 29 11:24:35 or does anyone know if these are standard screws available elsewhere? Dec 29 12:14:56 raccoon_: i would guess they r standard screws Dec 29 12:15:18 look at the service manual for correct size Dec 29 13:08:43 Vajb: thank you! i will consult the manual Dec 29 13:09:49 for the record, i found latest service manual here: http://www.cpkb.org/wiki/Nokia_N900_service_manual_and_schematic_download#Download_Links Dec 29 15:30:48 ~Ping Dec 29 15:30:48 ~pong Dec 29 19:43:44 oO Dec 29 19:43:53 merry and happy year's end ! Dec 29 19:44:06 wut wut, comp-swap builgt =) Dec 29 20:50:40 Hey! What's the best way to remotely take a picture with the N900? I've seen some gst-launch command line, which is cool, but does it do the equivalent of half-pressing the camera button for autofocus before taking the picture? Dec 29 22:48:58 gabriel_schulhof: /sys/devices/platform/i2c_omap.1/bus/devices/cam_focus/ might intereset you Dec 29 22:49:52 erm. might be interesting for you* Dec 30 00:30:10 bencoh: I'd bet on a gstreamer pipeline, you can't really write to a gpio and expect sane results Dec 30 00:31:45 gabriel_schulhof: http://wiki.maemo.org/Streaming_video_from_built-in_webcam#N900 Dec 30 00:34:29 freemangordon: yeah but will it autofocus ? Dec 30 00:35:52 and btw, should I just write 0 to sr_vdd{1,2}_autocomp to disable smartreflex and expect a "proper" behavior, or do I need to explicitely set some voltage ? Dec 30 00:55:13 bencoh: yep, writing 0 should suffice Dec 30 00:55:56 bencoh: no, it will not autofocus, but will stream at least Dec 30 00:56:28 the gpio/i2c thing was only to try focusing first :) Dec 30 00:56:37 to take pictures with autofocus one should play with gstcamerabin :) Dec 30 00:56:53 bencoh: afaik gpios are read-only Dec 30 00:57:24 well, at least cam_focus ;) Dec 30 00:57:46 hmm yeah, I wonder how camera-ui does Dec 30 00:58:10 it plays with gstcamerabin (or whatever was it called) Dec 30 00:58:22 well 2am isnt the time to go read camera-ui2, or I'll never go to sleep Dec 30 00:58:45 freemangordon: yeah but how does it focus ? Dec 30 00:58:51 hmm actually I could read fcam code Dec 30 00:59:04 you'd better read camera-ui code Dec 30 00:59:36 anyway, afaik, the closed omap3camd is the one that does the real work Dec 30 00:59:47 oh, okay Dec 30 00:59:57 too bad, one more blob Dec 30 01:00:11 gdigicam is the one that camera-ui uses Dec 30 01:00:28 a gst module Dec 30 01:00:40 I'm really amazed how all this fits together even with the closed parts :) Dec 30 01:00:51 and it "calls" omap3camd via v4l2 Dec 30 01:01:07 wait, what ? Dec 30 01:01:15 all this is "iirc" :) Dec 30 01:01:22 omap3camd is a userland v4l2 provider ? Dec 30 01:01:38 not exactly, there is a kernel part Dec 30 01:02:15 then it's just a control daemon and the actual "data" (video) provider sits in kernel ? Dec 30 01:02:15 omap34xxcam_mod if I am not mistaken Dec 30 01:03:16 no, if i get it right, that module provides v4l2 interface, but calls userspace daemon to do the real job Dec 30 01:03:35 hm, okay Dec 30 01:03:51 funny way to do it Dec 30 01:03:54 there are a pile of algos in omap3camd Dec 30 01:04:35 https://gitorious.org/msameer/omap3camd/source/4e9d4ad2ee501803d8643ce461d0a24980ad877f:O ? Dec 30 01:05:19 erm nevermind that's a RE effort, not a complete one Dec 30 01:05:26 an empty shell? :) Dec 30 01:06:38 yeah Dec 30 01:06:42 when it comes to it, we'll have to use all the knowledge we have to be able to RE it Dec 30 01:07:22 I assess the level of complexity similar or greater to PA closed modules Dec 30 01:07:57 which reminds me that I have to continue the work on those :) Dec 30 01:07:57 actually I'd first try a replacement, if it's only used through v4l2 Dec 30 01:08:38 bencoh: do "we" have FOSS stuff on par with Nokia know-how? Dec 30 01:09:19 also, don't forget the calibration for a particular sensor type Dec 30 01:09:20 dunno, but could we just retrieve camera input first ? :) Dec 30 01:10:17 well, 2am, I need some sleep :) Dec 30 01:10:26 night :) Dec 30 01:20:28 'night :) Dec 30 02:49:24 povbot is the captain of #maemo-ui because povbot isn't going to leave it, even when humans left the channel. Dec 30 02:49:25 Oksana: Error: "is" is not a valid command. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Dec 30 02:59:58 2014
