Aug 18 04:40:59 Dear shr.bearstech maintainers: you should apply the XGlamo fix to fix input rotation in landscape Aug 18 04:44:45 Is there anyone online who understands how to add a package to the Community Repository? Aug 18 04:54:20 cjb: there is no such thing as an shr.bearstech maintainer - it builds packages from OE - you need to talk to the people who maintain the packages in OE Aug 18 04:54:33 Ken_Young: answered in #openmoko Aug 18 04:55:16 cjb: (I maintain the autobuilder which creates the images and packages on shr.bearstech.com, but don't work for bearstech or anything like that - they just provide the hosting space0 Aug 18 04:55:28 rwhitby: oh. but the xglamo package in OE probably does already contain that fix, given that it's in most of the other builds? Aug 18 04:55:40 so it seems like whoever's producing that build just isn't pulling the latest package..? Aug 18 04:56:11 cjb: I'm the one producing that build, and it's done by building what's specified in OE Aug 18 04:57:13 for fso-testing, it builds whatever sane-srcrevs.inc in OE specifies as the latest tested version. For fso-unstable, it uses whatever the OM developers have put in moko-autorev.inc and fso-autorev.inc to specificy which packages should be built from floating versions Aug 18 04:58:47 I see. Thanks. Aug 18 04:59:13 Are you a good person to update the sane xglamo build to one that includes my #1244 fix? Aug 18 04:59:30 (pushed to GIT a week or so ago) Aug 18 05:00:05 if you can give me a OE package name, and GIT revision to build, and mickey_away ok's it, then I can. Aug 18 05:00:18 (assuming that version builds for me here) Aug 18 05:01:01 graeme said: Aug 18 05:01:02 > This has been updated in org.openmoko.dev and should appear in the next set of auto builds. Aug 18 05:01:07 (11 days ago) Aug 18 05:02:48 the rev in glamo GIT is 4067470ea4d569bae7b4161ca998645a0c9b96e7 Aug 18 05:02:59 I'm not sure what the OE package is for glamo, sorry. Aug 18 05:11:40 rwhitby: do you know anything about getting xserver-xfbdev armel in experimental or pkg-fso repos? Aug 18 05:12:39 tmzt_mp900c_: no Aug 18 05:13:10 you only do oe then, who works on pkg-fso? Aug 18 05:21:44 email the guy who sent out the announcement Aug 18 05:21:54 I don't know if he's here or what his nick is Aug 18 05:27:49 rwhitby: That would be nomeata, though shoragan might know as well Aug 18 05:28:16 tmzt_mp900c, I mean Aug 18 05:28:37 abraxa_: of course, yes, thanks. Aug 18 07:09:35 morning Aug 18 07:28:56 how do i fire a GTK+ application using SSH?

Aug 18 10:24:49 charlie137: Yeah, I've worked with it for some time now. Aug 18 10:24:57 What's the problem? Aug 18 10:25:12 alphaone: well, I am trying to create a package for tichy Aug 18 10:25:25 I have several questions Aug 18 10:26:06 sure, ask away. I'll try to answer :-) Aug 18 10:26:16 first : the sources are in a svn reprository, but I want the bb file to get my local copy for the moment Aug 18 10:26:31 I tried to write my own do_fetch method Aug 18 10:26:34 but it never called Aug 18 10:26:53 it *is never called Aug 18 10:27:15 do_fetch() { Aug 18 10:27:15 echo "CHARLIE TEST" Aug 18 10:27:15 cp -rf /home/charlie/Work/tichy ${WORKDIR}/ Aug 18 10:27:15 } Aug 18 10:28:22 what do I do wrong ? Aug 18 10:29:30 charlie137: There's do_fetch and do_unpack. I think the copying should happen in unpack.. Aug 18 10:30:11 Couldn't you not just set the SRC_URI to your local folder? Aug 18 10:30:26 But that aside... I've never overwritten do_fetch yet. Aug 18 10:31:00 stefan_schmidt: ah yes... I should try that... Aug 18 10:31:40 charlie137: That way you would just need to change the SRC_URI back ones you are satisfied Aug 18 10:31:42 Hmm, but it should work actually.. Aug 18 10:31:56 alphaone: yeah, it should... Aug 18 10:32:23 charlie137: Maybe the change isn't picked up by oe? Aug 18 10:32:29 i though that since the bb file name is tichy_svn.bb, i had to use a svn source Aug 18 10:32:30 Try -c clean Aug 18 10:32:35 or -c rebuild Aug 18 10:32:44 i do -c clean and -c rebuild every time Aug 18 10:32:50 okay Aug 18 10:33:04 the bb file is in a 'local' directory, that only contains this package Aug 18 10:33:55 charlie137: Are you sure that is parsed? Aug 18 10:33:55 ah, setting my local dir in the SRC_URI works ! Aug 18 10:34:03 cool Aug 18 10:34:13 ok, then the next question :) Aug 18 10:34:33 what is this PR variable ? Aug 18 10:35:00 charlie137: That's the revision of your .bb file Aug 18 10:35:34 So if you change something in your recipe you bump PR so the change gets picked up by OE. Aug 18 10:36:37 ah I see Aug 18 10:36:45 Otherwise for example if you include a patch in the .bb file the package will have the same version as the one installed and opkg wouldn't update Aug 18 10:36:48 nothing to do with the svn revision Aug 18 10:36:51 nope Aug 18 10:37:09 It's the oe (local) revision Aug 18 10:37:41 ok good, I was able to build the ipkg file :) Aug 18 10:38:24 still not working, but i am getting there I guess Aug 18 10:39:21 :-) Aug 18 10:40:23 there is an other problem Aug 18 10:40:38 I need to compile a few C files Aug 18 10:40:53 that include "pygame/pygame.h" Aug 18 10:41:07 this header file is provided by python-pygame package Aug 18 10:41:08 charlie137: In your distutils project? Aug 18 10:41:16 yes Aug 18 10:41:31 but pygame/pygame.h is provided by an other package Aug 18 10:41:36 Hmm, you would have to ask mickey about how to best handle that.. Aug 18 10:41:47 charlie137: So DEPEND on it Aug 18 10:42:22 as far as I understand, the header files should be in the staging directory Aug 18 10:42:39 Yeah Aug 18 10:43:01 so if I had the DEPEND += pygame, the file will be there ? Aug 18 10:43:10 ${STAGING_INCDIR} Aug 18 10:43:16 I though I just need to build python-pygame Aug 18 10:43:28 Points to include/ Aug 18 10:44:03 do_staging is the task that populate the staging dir right ? Aug 18 10:44:34 charlie137: DEPENDS += "python-pygame" will make sure python-pygame is built before Aug 18 10:44:41 and staging is populated Aug 18 10:47:34 do you know python distutils ? Aug 18 10:51:46 arg Aug 18 10:51:50 a new problem Aug 18 10:52:26 for some reason bitbake decided to rebuild libfreetype Aug 18 10:52:32 and failed Aug 18 10:52:51 arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g77: command not found Aug 18 10:54:27 how can I build the toolchain fortran compiler ? Aug 18 11:14:36 charlie137: is there a 'gfortran' in your cross compiler folder?

Aug 18 12:07:59 rwhitby: I know, already working on this. Aug 18 12:12:46 stefan_schmidt: not hassling you, since it's unstable :-) Aug 18 12:13:21 rwhitby: yeah, alsways nice if other spot problems. Thanks. Aug 18 12:13:36 rwhitby: Will do more tests before bumpinf srcrev. :) Aug 18 12:13:39 bumping Aug 18 12:14:09 stefan_schmidt: the oestats makes is easy to see what's passing and failing Aug 18 12:14:26 http://tinderbox.openembedded.net/search/?status=Failed Aug 18 12:14:50 the fso-testing and fso-unstable builds are marked shr.bearstech.com Aug 18 12:15:14 ok Aug 18 12:16:02 task-openmoko-feed now builds for fso-testing and fso-unstable, so if anyone wants applications added to the feeds, just add them to task-openmoko-feed.bb (making sure they build first) Aug 18 12:16:48 rwhitby: ok, great. Great to see someone doing this work. Thanks. Aug 18 12:18:07 now that builds are stable, I feel I can now contribute to development using a stable baseline to work upon. there's nothing worse than things moving under your feet and never knowing whether you or someone else broke something Aug 18 12:19:43 rwhitby: yeah, that sucks. It's even a problem for us sometimes. Aug 18 12:26:42 rwhitby: Where is that replacement? Trac? Aug 18 12:27:08 rwhitby: Can you give me / point me to a quick changelog? Aug 18 12:27:58 alphaone: attached to http://trac.freesmartphone.org/ticket/50 Aug 18 12:28:32 rwhitby: Great, thanks. Aug 18 12:28:43 * alphaone needs to enable email notifications on trac.fs.o Aug 18 12:29:16 Been using that for a couple of days - the only thing I can see wrong is that TangoGPS didn't report my speed correctly (perhaps it was in miles/hr instead of km/hr) Aug 18 12:29:39 but I don't think that problem is in the nmea parser code Aug 18 12:29:54 rwhitby: I'm currently debugging PDU stuff, but I'll keep the tab open so I'll get to it later. Aug 18 12:30:19 rwhitby: Okay. I don't think you could have made the stuff much worse :-) Aug 18 12:30:47 alphaone: mickey_away gave me commit privs, but I wanted to get the first contribution reviewed first. Aug 18 12:30:49 So give me a little time and I'll apply. Aug 18 12:31:00 rwhitby: Ah, better then. Aug 18 12:31:25 (mickey knows my commits on other projects for over 3 years now) Aug 18 12:31:32 Okay, I'll respond to you on IRC when I had a chance to look at it. Then you can commit. Sounds good? Aug 18 12:31:38 yep Aug 18 12:31:59 or respond in the ticket if I'm asleep :-) Aug 18 12:32:07 (GMT+9:30 here) Aug 18 12:32:09 Okay :-) Aug 18 12:32:52 once it's in, I'll add the corresponding lines to the om-gta01 framework.conf in OE so it will work out of the box Aug 18 12:37:23 cool Aug 18 12:38:06 I'm all for making the changes required in OE so that everything works out of the box from a fresh reflash.

Aug 18 13:38:27 Seems I busted my build. :( Aug 18 13:40:16 stefan_schmidt: how long is 'forever'? Aug 18 13:40:35 Well, over 30 minutes already Aug 18 13:40:50 That wuite long on a 8 core 10GB monster :) Aug 18 13:40:59 hmm.. indeed Aug 18 13:41:19 i think it took no more than 5 mins on my single-core laptop, assuming we're talking about the same thing Aug 18 13:41:46 yeah Aug 18 13:41:55 jffs2 take some time Aug 18 13:41:59 But not that long Aug 18 13:44:05 sigh, I think I start from scratch for this one. Aug 18 13:47:03 I have seen task-openmoko-feed mentioned a couple of times, can someone briefly describe what it is ? Aug 18 13:47:55 hipitihop: A list of packages that get build for a feed. packages in an online repo you can install Aug 18 13:49:32 stefan_schmidt, so specifical for auto builds like rwhitby does as opposed to a feed I should add to opkg Aug 18 13:50:27 hipitihop: If all went well it works like this Aug 18 13:50:41 hipitihop: The image you flash has the right URI prinstalled for the feed Aug 18 13:50:51 hipitihop: The complete feed gets build and uploaded Aug 18 13:51:14 hipitihop: You have an internet connection on your neo and can just type opkg update Aug 18 13:51:17 opkg upgrade Aug 18 13:51:24 opkg install foo-package Aug 18 13:51:27 what you like Aug 18 13:53:43 understand that bit and infact I have had to manually correct the image URI's thr image comes with in /etc/opkg/*.conf files, however I thought task-openmoko-feed was another one to be added. Aug 18 13:54:22 but thanks, I understand the intended mechanism. Aug 18 13:55:11 np Aug 18 13:56:46 task-openmoko-feed is meant to be the list of OE packages which have been verified to somewhat work on an openmoko device, and therefore are useful to appear in a feed for openmoko devices Aug 18 13:59:20 rwhitby, still slightly unclear, so is it intended to be another one in /etc/opkg/ ? Aug 18 14:02:38 no Aug 18 14:03:00 it defines the list of packages which get built into the feeds that you reference from /etc/opkg/* Aug 18 14:03:22 (e.g. the same package may be compiled multiple times for different hardware or distributions) Aug 18 14:05:26 rwhitby, git it thanks. final related question, why do those default feeds (/etc/opkg/*.conf) from fso-testing all have URI http://my-distribution.org/remote-feed//.. Aug 18 14:11:30 hipitihop: cause when milestone2 was released, there was no feed set up Aug 18 14:11:56 there still is no official openmoko feed, but I believe mickey is ok with me making the images point to the feed I'm maintaining Aug 18 14:12:37 (which is not official, but is autobuilt) Aug 18 14:12:53 night all Aug 18 14:13:49 rwhitby, gnite Aug 18 14:36:53 after installing Debian onto micro-SD card (vfat+ext2), http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner, I rebooted once, and got zhone display; I rebooted again to micro-SD, and it boots into OM2008.8 from flash; why is it so? Aug 18 14:39:05 mbuf: sounds very weird Aug 18 14:39:16 what changed on the sd between those boots? Aug 18 14:39:30 just put the SIM card Aug 18 14:43:00 trying now without the SIM card; no difference, it boots, and then suddenly it boots to flash; Aug 18 14:47:58 /dev/mmcblk0p1 is /media/card and /dev/mmcblk0p2 is /media/mmcblk0p2; Aug 18 14:49:45 mbuf: maybe it crashes during boot? Aug 18 14:49:58 mbuf: what if you hold AUX down all the time? Aug 18 14:50:04 lindi-, let me check Aug 18 14:51:47 everytime it does /lib/init/rw/rootdev file system check on boot Aug 18 14:52:37 ok, and then returns to u-boot menu; since default is flash, it boots from it Aug 18 14:53:19 ok now /lib/init/rw/rootdev is clean, and it boots into Debian Aug 18 14:53:32 lindi-, cool, thanks!

Aug 18 18:44:55 http://.fosdem.org/2009 Aug 18 18:45:05 would be cool :) Aug 18 18:47:47 ooh, gestures Aug 18 18:48:09 in fso-testing Aug 18 18:48:49 shame the dialer doesn't work, at least in yesterday's build :( Aug 18 18:48:59 * cjb would love to move over to a stable fso-testing Aug 18 18:49:12 cjb: how does it fail? Aug 18 18:51:13 the dialer turns blue, and frameworkd says "ALL CHANNELS OK, START TRAFFICKING" Aug 18 18:51:22 and then the dialer icon turns not-blue Aug 18 18:51:27 and the dialer doesn't launch Aug 18 18:52:30 Yapp, same here. Aug 18 19:04:33 oops, was wrong link.. http://fosdem.org/2009/ Aug 18 19:37:12 is the chap around who did the accel gsoc project? Aug 18 19:39:16 edistar: That's pvborza, and nope Aug 18 19:39:36 abraxa_: thanks Aug 18 21:31:07 alphaone: thx - will commit it today Aug 18 21:54:23 * rwhitby notes that the fso-testing autobuilder automatically built stefan_schmidt's new illume profile overnight and deployed it to the feeds. Aug 18 21:55:50 * lindi- can't build illume :( Aug 18 22:10:41 regarding the gestures-on-fso-testing work: does gesl launch by default, or is it just that the build contains the dependencies that allow you to install the packages if you want to? Aug 18 22:12:55 the latter Aug 18 22:13:08 and it's the feed that now contains the dependencies Aug 18 22:13:18 ah, ok. it might be nice to integrate it by default, but I don't know how much it requires. Aug 18 22:13:25 *how much CPU Aug 18 22:14:30 If the answer is "a lot", it might be nice to write a less hungry program that can run all the time and merely handles screen rotation detection. Aug 18 22:16:53 and screen blanking/locking and suspend Aug 18 22:23:11 cjb: can the processor wake from suspend when it detects motion? Aug 18 22:24:10 lindi-: yes, I believe I read about that on the kernel list this week. Aug 18 22:24:13 It's not implemented yet. Aug 18 22:28:05 lindi-: http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-kernel/2008-August/004537.html Aug 18 22:28:16 i care more for locking/unlocking the screen like when i dial a number and hold it up to my greasey face Aug 18 22:29:56 kd8ikt: I suspect that the cpu usage for a gesture like that is going to be the same whether you just match a few gestures or several dozen Aug 18 22:30:20 The nice thing about screen orientation is that it's a super-simple check, no hidden markov models required Aug 18 22:30:28 wurp2|working: oh, it is? cool Aug 18 22:30:54 okay, perhaps I should write the trivial C program that detects orientation and calls xrandr when it changes. Aug 18 22:31:14 I dunno how hefty the cpu requirements are for gesture recognition Aug 18 22:31:29 But I'm pretty sure they're going to be about the same for a few gestures vs a lot Aug 18 22:31:48 except if you write special purpose code for the super-simple ones like orientation Aug 18 22:32:07 wurp2|working: which is what I'm proposing Aug 18 22:32:12 yeah Aug 18 22:32:33 I think it's a good idea, but if it were me I would wait until I saw the cpu reqs for the existing gesture code Aug 18 22:33:18 I suspect you're right, though - I think it's probably enough of a cpu load to be worth the orientation detector separate from gestures Aug 18 22:33:18 sounds sensible. Aug 18 22:33:32 cjb: interesting Aug 18 22:33:45 yes, the gestures surely involve a lot of long-term CPU crunching and integration Aug 18 22:34:19 you can't ask it to magically detect a shake without performing computations on every reading, and that alone is probably going to disqualify Gestures from being run as default on a main build Aug 18 22:34:20 mickey_away: Did you think any more about batching up accelerometer events? Aug 18 22:35:46 cjb: Yeah, the best you could get is to have it check for some easily identified "start of a gesture" gesture Aug 18 22:36:13 e.g. only listen for gestures after a hard acceleration Aug 18 22:36:59 g'night all Aug 18 22:37:47 <_ferric> night wurp! Aug 18 22:38:07 wurp2|away: or an AUX press Aug 18 22:38:37 wurp2|away: only starting to look for gestures after detecting a gesture is not a good idea :) Aug 18 22:38:47 (because it's circular.) Aug 18 22:43:03 cjb: you could start detecting more complex gestures after a simple one :) Aug 18 22:43:41 but what does that actually save? Aug 18 22:45:18 cjb: the cpu could be completely asleep until it detects sufficiently large acceleration for example? Aug 18 22:45:50 oh, you're talking about using the interrupt on freefall as a nint to userspace while we're already awake, maybe? Aug 18 22:45:57 s/nint/hint/ Aug 18 22:46:22 perhaps it generates the interrupt *any* time it detects freefall, and not just while we're asleep, in which case we could do that Aug 18 22:46:37 (with appropriate plumbing to get the interrupt up to userspace) Aug 18 22:59:35 running debian of fr, I tried pulseaudio, but damn, it played back audio reeeeaaaaaly reeeaaaaly slow; wonder what 2007.2 did to make it play normal Aug 18 23:00:48 aplay plays fine, though, as far as aplay is capable Aug 18 23:00:57 probably "not use pulseaudio"? Aug 18 23:01:39 pulseaudio is fine, once it works Aug 18 23:02:07 that combined with jack, is a killer Aug 18 23:02:21 one it works..;) Aug 18 23:02:26 s/one/once/ Aug 18 23:03:06 no app should really be using alsa directly Aug 18 23:05:56 b0ef: you need to configure pulseaudio Aug 18 23:06:34 lindi-: in what way? Aug 18 23:06:40 it plays the audio, just damn slow Aug 18 23:07:12 b0ef: check what the 2007.2 uses, something about resampling-method=trivial Aug 18 23:07:35 lindi-: ah, right; I'll look at that; thanks Aug 18 23:08:45 any pointers how to mount the internal flash? Aug 18 23:08:51 isn't fdisk -l supposed to show it? Aug 18 23:10:52 b0ef: mount /dev/mtdblock6 /mnt -oro -t jffs2 Aug 18 23:11:17 lindi-: wow, thanks Aug 18 23:33:12 haha, wow, heaven and hell Aug 18 23:33:17 working perfectly;) Aug 18 23:33:21 thanks.. Aug 18 23:34:15 pulse also using 0.0 cpu;) Aug 19 00:53:56 NOTE: multiple providers are available for virtual/libqte2 (qte-mt-static, qte, Aug 19 00:53:56 qte-mt); Aug 19 00:54:01 Which should FSO be using? Aug 19 00:54:22 what do delete if one needs more space in debian? Aug 19 01:32:38 any pointers as to where I can find the documentation for org.freesmartphone.Device.LED.SetBlinking? Aug 19 01:33:38 I've looked everywhere on both wikis Aug 19 01:34:18 edistar: apt-get clean?;) Aug 19 01:35:02 edistar: a 4Gio SSD costs $30, though.. Aug 19 02:17:02 b0ef: for around that i brought 8gb kingston Aug 19 02:32:52 hello Aug 19 02:33:10 hey Aug 19 02:34:02 Soo... Aug 19 02:34:19 what sorts of things can be done to improve SIM card support? Aug 19 02:34:48 Flinx: nothing; we don't have access to the GSM firmware. Aug 19 02:36:04 hrm.. Aug 19 02:36:18 so we're kindof at the whim of GSM software people? Aug 19 02:36:23 yes. Aug 19 02:36:35 and they seem intent on screwing us Aug 19 02:36:42 as evidenced by the AT&T problems in the US Aug 19 02:37:35 yeah Aug 19 02:56:41 http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=83 -- Maybe it's possible to write FOSS GSM? Aug 19 02:57:30 Not sure that that's legal. Aug 19 02:57:43 at least, distributing it after writing it. Aug 19 02:57:46 I duno, Aug 19 02:57:51 I'm trying to find out. Aug 19 02:57:52 (in the US, I mean) Aug 19 02:58:23 cause the OM isn't going to do very well in the US if only 40%~ of SIMs work.. Aug 19 02:58:45 I think it would be a multi-year project even if it were possible/legal. Aug 19 02:59:13 so I think OM owners will lose out. there might eventually be a GSM modem with open firmware. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Aug 19 02:59:56 2008
