**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Aug 20 02:59:59 2015 Aug 20 03:41:16 hello all Aug 20 03:41:24 hi Aug 20 03:42:03 still active Aug 20 03:42:11 hello stryngs Aug 20 06:37:29 hello maemo user hihi... Aug 20 11:39:15 hello.... Aug 20 12:42:21 Guys, We have a patient here who needs to get revived! :P Aug 20 12:42:36 somehow, I can't flash it anymore Aug 20 12:42:50 it stays on Nokia N900 (Nokia Suite) :( Aug 20 12:45:34 errr Aug 20 12:45:54 Nokia suite sounds like windows PC Aug 20 12:46:13 ok, somehow, I managed to get the phone into "update mode" Aug 20 12:46:26 whatever that means Aug 20 12:46:46 DocScrutinizer05: when you hold the U button while booting the phone, it will go into update mode Aug 20 12:46:51 yes Aug 20 12:46:56 unless battery too low Aug 20 12:47:05 it's like 30-40% Aug 20 12:47:09 shouldn't be too low Aug 20 12:47:19 NOLO will decide on that ;-) Aug 20 12:47:43 the problem is Aug 20 12:47:51 (at least thats what I figured it out right now) Aug 20 12:47:57 when voltage is too low, NOLO will try to charge battery and for that directly boots to linux Aug 20 12:48:01 it stays on Update mode, untill i start the flashing Aug 20 12:48:22 when I try to start flashing, it will kick me out of the update mode Aug 20 12:48:46 when you try to flash VANILLA then that's the expected behavior Aug 20 12:48:58 aha Aug 20 12:49:06 VANILLA is handled by a update daemon in linux Aug 20 12:49:10 got it Aug 20 12:49:24 thanks Aug 20 12:49:25 works Aug 20 12:49:28 :-) Aug 20 12:49:41 i got fooled by the "flash vanilla first" :P Aug 20 12:50:01 Patient saved! \o/ Aug 20 12:50:48 well, actually it can't reach NOLO for COMBINED flashing after VANILLA flashing. So you need to reboot after VANILLA to enter "update mode" again, for COMBINED Aug 20 12:50:57 yeah Aug 20 12:52:28 CMT flashing failed < why does this happen? Aug 20 12:52:38 Not that it's a big deal, since its working though Aug 20 12:52:49 that's nasty Aug 20 12:53:23 CMT flashing failing often is a sign of CMT already going south Aug 20 12:53:47 but sometimes it might be caused by very simple reason: low battery voltage Aug 20 14:16:20 HtheB: i have experience of that CMT flashing failed error... Try with another (maybe older) pc with standard usb 2.0 port and a 32 bit os Aug 20 14:22:56 aah yes, that may help too Aug 20 14:23:32 for very weird reasons it seems the cmt data is particularly prone to data corruption Aug 20 14:23:46 hi xes! :) how's life? Aug 20 14:24:07 i think flasher has some problem with recent hardware and usb 3.0 ports (and/or 64 bit linux) Aug 20 14:25:43 hi DocScrutinizer05! life? ..hard, too firewalls, too patches, too many bad guys with a lot of free time... :) Aug 20 14:26:09 :nod: Aug 20 14:26:31 DocScrutinizer05: and you? Everything well at cccamp ? Aug 20 14:27:04 I'm still in desaster management mode and recovering Aug 20 14:27:49 recovering what? health, hardware or wet shoes? :) Aug 20 14:28:12 cccamp was a great success I think. Still waiting for our own video footage of the real talks. The lightning talks are already online, our private truncated versions at http://neo900.org/stuff/cccamp15/ Aug 20 14:29:16 recovering health, it was pretty exhausting for me to organize all that, and there's still stuff pending to get organized (return rented stuff) Aug 20 14:29:51 hardware survived surprisingly well Aug 20 14:30:36 wet shoes, ohmy. I guess the washing machine will be able to tell we were at dusty cccamp Aug 20 14:30:57 :) Aug 20 14:31:03 I'm still coughing little bricks Aug 20 14:31:38 no surprise when staying 10 days on a brick factory Aug 20 14:31:46 ;-) Aug 20 14:33:19 it been sort of old wild west movies. You don't see the trail/army/whatever, you only see the *dust* they create which forms 100m high endless clouds Aug 20 14:34:01 videos seem interesting.. have you also some interesting photo camp life/events? Aug 20 14:34:11 few Aug 20 14:34:15 very few Aug 20 14:34:46 I've actually been too busy to take snapshots Aug 20 14:36:26 hey ..and the rad1o sdr toy? :) Aug 20 14:39:47 pre-start 20% of luggage: http://maemo.cloud-7.de/share-service/20150805_002.jpg. Camper on day-minus3 with no crown on place http://maemo.cloud-7.de/share-service/20150810_001.jpg + 002 / Village: http://maemo.cloud-7.de/share-service/20150810_004.jpg to http://maemo.cloud-7.de/share-service/20150811_003.jpg Aug 20 14:40:18 the rad1o toy looks nice. I had not a minute time to play with it yet, though Aug 20 15:47:15 * sixwheeledbeast has replaced his seized CPU fan for a 120mm push/pull setup and is now running at a cool 13C :) Aug 20 16:03:52 13C ? Aug 20 16:03:54 wow Aug 20 16:10:22 bencoh: I was surprised too. It is a huge heatsink tho, with two 120mm fans either side. Aug 20 16:14:23 That is idle, I have yet to see the temp go above 30 even under load. Room temp is currently 23. I think I should live in my case on hot days :) Aug 20 16:14:38 xes: i see Aug 20 16:14:48 What exactly is CMT anyway? Aug 20 16:14:54 since I can boot up the phone... Aug 20 16:14:59 even if it fails to Aug 20 16:15:03 sixwheeledbeast, your room-Temp 30°C? - The sensor readout must be wrong... a fan physically cannot cool down below room-temp... Aug 20 16:15:40 oh, 23°C, but still... Aug 20 16:16:13 room temp is 23C, MB temp is 34C, CPU temp is 13-16C idle. Aug 20 16:16:44 impossible... Aug 20 16:17:31 the fan blows 23°C air to the cooler... Aug 20 16:17:51 actually it is possible Aug 20 16:17:55 I have no reason to question it. Aug 20 16:18:21 the air cools down when it's accelerated Aug 20 16:18:42 I was showing 61-70C when I diagnosed my CPU fan had seized. Aug 20 16:19:25 Win7Mac: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle Aug 20 16:21:34 sixwheeledbeast, check another tool to read out temps Aug 20 16:21:46 Also I think this is the benefit of the push/pull creating negative pressure in the heatsink. Before with only push I used to get about 23-26 idle, but I have also increased the amount and quality of the case fans too. Aug 20 16:22:23 I will check with BIOS in a few minutes I have to shutdown to reinstall a RAM chip. Aug 20 16:24:42 bencoh, you'd need turbines for that I guess... Aug 20 16:25:04 compressed air... Aug 20 16:44:19 peltier? phase change? Aug 20 16:47:05 Thermotunneling? ;) Aug 20 16:48:28 laser refrigeration? Aug 20 16:50:47 does anyone know how to turn off the phone functionality when booting up the phone? Aug 20 16:51:05 it takes like a minute untill the n900 is booted up :( (phone function doesn't work anymore) Aug 20 16:52:29 ok so BIOS temps are similar values to sensors applet Aug 20 16:53:54 I have tweaked it to "Auto Mode" now, was set to "Full On" Aug 20 17:01:15 HtheB: Never tried would look into upstart or rcs-late? There was also something in devel that would run scripts at startup. Aug 20 17:05:54 does FCamera take 640x480 snaps? any way to get better resolution? Aug 20 17:10:05 Win7Mac: for bernoulli's effect to occure ? no Aug 20 17:10:11 it's just on a different scale Aug 20 17:10:41 sixwheeledbeast: what do you mean by "snaps" ? the low-res version encoded in the DNG file ? Aug 20 17:10:48 or the preview image in viewfinder ? Aug 20 17:11:19 i mean the DNG that gets saved. is this by design? Aug 20 17:11:45 DNG contains a low-res "preview" and a full-res raw image Aug 20 17:12:03 the preview is, well ... just a preview :) Aug 20 17:12:20 i'm opening it in Gimp .. how do i see the full-res? the DNG file is 11MB in size Aug 20 17:13:06 use dcraw, ufraw, or any other RAW/DNG viewer/"converter" Aug 20 17:13:26 there is a gimp/ufraw plugin so you can export ufraw result to gimp Aug 20 17:13:43 ah, thanks. i saw mention of dcraw on tmo. whew! i was shocked tbh Aug 20 17:13:47 oh and ... welcome to the RAW editing world :-) Aug 20 17:16:25 N900 to thank for that, haha. BlessN900 can coexist with FCam? i have FCam on my 2nd N900, and BlessN900 on the main one Aug 20 17:16:53 havent tried Aug 20 17:17:29 depends on whether bless900 tries to install its own drivers as well Aug 20 17:17:48 I think blessn900 can just use fcam drivers Aug 20 17:19:03 ok. will test on the 2nd one before i do same on main one Aug 20 17:24:14 thanks bencoh .. looks good with ufraw. now someone needs to port one of these RAW tools to the N900 .. or they need obscure libs? Aug 20 17:29:03 I can also say that the air leaving the rear of the case is cooler than room temp. Aug 20 17:32:50 using a thermometer or your hand? Aug 20 18:27:42 CPU Sensors don't show absolute temps but the difference to a critical max. where a throttle kicks in: Junction Temperature Max (TjMax). Aug 20 18:28:12 It *must* be a readout error since it's impossible that the cooling object (heatsink) gets colder than the cooling medium (air) with just fans. peltier or compressor is a different story Aug 20 18:44:27 sixwheeledbeast, which CPU? Aug 20 21:17:11 Sicelo: ufraw/dcraw could be ported to maemo Aug 20 21:17:24 their are a few deps, but they're not too ugly Aug 20 21:17:28 afaict Aug 20 21:37:05 Luke-Jr: hi, do you have some patches for kmail/kontact ready? Aug 20 21:41:38 now I fixed another bug: calling: kmail 'mailto:?To=test+a@test.aa' wanted to send mail to address "test a@test.aa" basically all '+' were replaced by ' ' space Aug 20 21:42:40 (I know '+' should be properly percent escaped and that mailto uri is not valid per rfc, but it is better to not do such replace for "invalid" uris) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Aug 21 02:59:58 2015
