Aug 07 03:01:13 <DocScrutinizer05> see slide=$(cat sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/slide/state); in my script, poll() on sysnodes doesn't work usually
Aug 07 03:01:20 <DocScrutinizer05> it's non-blocking
Aug 07 03:01:33 <DocScrutinizer05> thus you can't use poll()
Aug 07 03:02:08 <DocScrutinizer05> polling would be   while sleep 1; do slide=$(cat sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/slide/state); done;
Aug 07 03:03:16 <DocScrutinizer05> since that's BAD(TM), my script waits for activation by dbus-scripting and then reads out state of slider since stupid dbus messages don't tell the state of a "swirch", only the fact that it changed
Aug 07 03:12:48 <DocScrutinizer05> btw also inotify() doesn't work on sysnodes since their content gets dynamically created on on read()
Aug 07 03:13:03 <DocScrutinizer05> s/on on/only on/
Aug 07 03:13:59 <DocScrutinizer05> that's also the reason why they are usually non-blocking read() and thus can't make use of poll()
Aug 07 03:23:04 <Vajb> thx DocScrutinizer05, i'll try ur play-sound script after i get some sleep.
Aug 07 05:18:02 <Maxdamantus> 15:01:13 < DocScrutinizer05> see slide=$(cat sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/slide/state); in my script, poll() on sysnodes doesn't work usually
Aug 07 05:18:20 <Maxdamantus> It specifically does for GPIO "state" nodes with POLLPRI
Aug 07 05:20:11 <Maxdamantus> See Documentation/gpio/sysfs.txt .. it's the normal behaviour on Linux.
Aug 07 05:26:04 <Maxdamantus> also to clarify, I never intended "polling" as in `for(;;){ sleep(1); check(); }`
Aug 07 05:26:19 <Maxdamantus> I was specifically referring to `poll(2)`
Aug 07 07:02:09 <Maxdamantus> The code I wrote works as-is btw
Aug 07 07:02:28 * Maxdamantus just copied it into the repl
Aug 07 07:41:52 <enyc> 
Aug 07 10:47:01 <sixwheeledbeast^> Locking screen on keyboard state closed would drive me mad. 
Aug 07 10:47:41 <enyc> ->  talk.maemo.org  SSL certificate error fail expired today!
Aug 07 10:48:14 <enyc> Can we have  IPv6-enabled on server and SSL letsencrypt or something that autorenews ????  
Aug 07 10:48:18 <enyc> I can help [...]
Aug 07 10:48:37 <enyc> not sure who looks after servers

Aug 07 11:30:12 <sixwheeledbeast^> I would imagine it will be mentioned on Tuesday's meeting if it hasn't happened.

Aug 07 16:43:00 <DocScrutinizer05> LE is a PITA
Aug 07 16:44:21 <DocScrutinizer05> juiceme: could you get a 2 xear wildcard cert and get the expense refunded by MCeV?
Aug 07 16:45:04 <DocScrutinizer05> pleeease!
