**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Aug 30 02:59:57 2009 Aug 30 03:21:00 hi Aug 30 03:21:57 im trying to install shr on a gta-01, where must I extract the module in order to avoid the "unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)" error ? Aug 30 04:13:24 hi need help with my freerunner Aug 30 04:14:33 * ndnihil just started opkg upgrade Aug 30 04:14:40 wonder how this will|wont work Aug 30 04:14:58 hi Aug 30 04:15:02 howdy Aug 30 04:15:03 hows ur phone doing Aug 30 04:15:14 its good for now Aug 30 04:15:21 but I could be breaking it Aug 30 04:15:30 if so I'll just flash it again Aug 30 04:15:32 why? Aug 30 04:15:57 just doing an opkg upgrade Aug 30 04:16:00 when u first got it could you even place a call? or you still have to upgrade it something else? Aug 30 04:16:16 it worked just fine out of the box for me Aug 30 04:16:27 still waiting for my phone to be shipped parisoma only has 2 phones left Aug 30 04:16:40 ah Aug 30 04:16:46 it'll work Aug 30 04:16:51 what distro are you planning to use? Aug 30 04:16:52 but you'll probably want to upgrade Aug 30 04:17:00 I've been using shr-unstable Aug 30 04:17:27 hmmm sounds new to me. . . any plans in porting debian on it? Aug 30 04:21:05 debian is already available for it Aug 30 04:21:21 I'll probably go that route eventually Aug 30 04:21:28 I've got debian on everything else Aug 30 04:22:11 cool... Aug 30 04:28:05 you have no problems in using your wifi? Aug 30 04:28:15 quite the contrary Aug 30 04:28:19 many problems with wifi Aug 30 04:28:22 well Aug 30 04:28:28 it works fine for open APs Aug 30 04:28:29 once Aug 30 04:28:58 but trying it twice will often lock the device up Aug 30 04:29:15 and connecting to protected APs just wont happen Aug 30 04:29:21 not for me anyway Aug 30 04:29:27 it's a hit or miss thing Aug 30 04:29:36 some people get it to work, some dont Aug 30 04:29:53 I think the wifi kernel module is buggy Aug 30 04:38:28 hmmm sounds strange Aug 30 04:38:40 i thought it was all worked out... Aug 30 04:38:53 hmm maybe upgrading it would fixed it? Aug 30 04:39:13 dunno, that's what I'm trying now Aug 30 04:39:13 or would it fix if you'll use a usb wifi card? Aug 30 04:39:35 have you checked out www.ipwn.com Aug 30 04:39:38 usb dongle would work, but be very inconvenient to carry around, and drain the battery Aug 30 04:40:10 hmm Aug 30 04:40:18 for wardrvng hee hee Aug 30 04:40:42 kismet+gpsdrive is fine for wardriving Aug 30 04:40:54 we better get those nokia batteries on thnksgvng Aug 30 04:41:07 have u tried it on ur phone? Aug 30 04:41:29 nope Aug 30 04:41:47 if but for no other reason, the antenna on the cards in the laptop is far better Aug 30 04:42:30 what about pdf? Aug 30 04:42:40 ? Aug 30 04:42:52 can u read pdf clearly? Aug 30 04:42:59 oh, haven't tried Aug 30 04:43:10 on the phone damn cant wait to get my hands drty Aug 30 04:43:32 if you want to play videos, get the mplayer with glamo patch Aug 30 04:43:37 ur familiar with backtrack? Aug 30 04:43:47 nope Aug 30 04:43:54 oh wait Aug 30 04:44:05 that pentest dist/bootable cd? Aug 30 04:46:24 yeah Aug 30 04:46:51 tried it out once Aug 30 04:46:53 seemed ok Aug 30 04:47:04 i think someone ported most of the appz on the fone Aug 30 04:47:15 selling his dstro for 99$ Aug 30 04:47:23 but I dont see any reason to use that rather than just installing those tools on your normal dist Aug 30 04:47:47 perhaps some issues with kernel Aug 30 04:48:02 not really Aug 30 04:49:06 dunno why Aug 30 05:38:28 ndnihil: have you tried the latest kernel with the patch applied? Aug 30 05:39:47 tag8tag: looks like some other problem, probably with your u-boot env. Aug 30 05:40:44 PaulFertser: which patch? Aug 30 05:41:29 DocScrutinizer: Tarkovsky's "Stalker" is really different, the other mood/ideas completely. Aug 30 05:41:55 Undrwater: the one on the kernel ML, removes one "unnecessary" lin. Aug 30 05:42:30 oh? :) Aug 30 05:42:35 Undrwater: i'm pushing it today since Werner's complaints are "resolved" and nobody gives any feedback. Aug 30 05:42:49 Screw that, ftw people complain so much about the wifi and nobody's tried it already? Aug 30 05:42:49 i haven't been following Aug 30 05:43:37 i'll try it...which is the kernel ML? Aug 30 05:44:11 i didn't see it on the community ML, which seems to have more activity Aug 30 05:44:36 Undrwater: http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-kernel/2009-August/010494.html Aug 30 05:44:45 Undrwater: i mentioned it on community ML Aug 30 05:47:41 ah...is there a kernel already built with that patch? Aug 30 05:48:31 Undrwater: hm Aug 30 05:49:09 I mean that's a stupid question, of course i have that (since i tested it) but my upload speed is very slow and so uploading modules will take ages. Aug 30 05:49:28 :P Aug 30 05:49:51 should be able to be hosted somewhere whre the kernels are typically found. Aug 30 05:50:07 But upload speed is the limiting factor Aug 30 05:50:39 It'd be easier to build it on shr buildhost. I just can't understand wtf there's so many users complaining and nobody's tried the patch already. Aug 30 05:51:48 Building the kernel is trivial. Considering one's done that already numerous times (and iirc back in the days, just 10 years ago, even when Linux was out of infacy already one still built the kernel himself) Aug 30 05:52:46 i do that here...but i can't build a kernel for arm on my machine without cross compile or other setup, correct? Aug 30 05:53:21 PaulFertser: is that patch now an alternative to budfive's original wlan patch? Aug 30 05:53:44 lindi-: no, it's to solve others problem Aug 30 05:54:16 lindi-: budfive's patch is trying to bring some consistency to the driver. But it's not the way as i see it. Aug 30 05:54:49 lindi-: rather ar6000_drv.c should be rewritten, i can't see how it can be fixable, the code is too messy :( Aug 30 05:55:17 lindi-: my one-liner is just a bandaid to allow driver to properly function after unbind/bind (and i guess also suspend/resume). Aug 30 05:55:48 Undrwater: emdebian installs arm cross-compiler in a matter of minutes without any complex steps involved. Aug 30 05:56:22 PaulFertser: is that liveCD or something installed? Aug 30 05:56:34 nevermind...i'll look, thanks for the pointer Aug 30 05:57:01 Undrwater: no, that's just a convenient way to crosscompile on Debian/ubuntu. Aug 30 05:57:17 i'm on gentoo Aug 30 05:58:09 Undrwater: there it's easy too, with crossdev Aug 30 05:58:29 ahh...OK Aug 30 05:58:44 Undrwater: for compiling the kernel even armv5 toolchain is ok, but you won't be able to compile properly Qi or other programs with it. Aug 30 05:59:18 Undrwater: unfortunately, i haven't found a way to build armv4-compatible toolchain with crossdev. Gentoo folks employed different hacks but no proper solution iirc. Aug 30 05:59:21 max_posedon: ping Aug 30 06:01:17 lindi-: i have a suspicion that with budfive's patch "ifconfig eth0 down" won't disable the device and hence you'll lose power. Aug 30 06:02:35 PaulFertser: is there any easy way to test that? Aug 30 06:04:05 openmoko: 03werner * r5578 10/trunk/eda/fped/ (TODO fped.c kicad.c postscript.c): (log message trimmed) Aug 30 06:04:05 openmoko: - postscript.c: added some code for frame display, but I'm not happy with it Aug 30 06:04:05 openmoko: - postscript.c: moved tedious "... maxfont maxfont ..." into new function Aug 30 06:04:05 openmoko: "boxfont" Aug 30 06:04:05 openmoko: - postscript.c: "hcenter" was way off for diagonal text Aug 30 06:04:08 openmoko: - postscript.c: "realsize" didn't take into account the effect of rotation and Aug 30 06:04:10 openmoko: returned only the x component in the original coordinate system Aug 30 06:04:37 lindi-: probably adding a printk to HTCStop to see if it's called or not can show that. OTOH if my guess that this function is responsible for turning off the device is incorrect, it doesn't help much. But i think the concept of changing wireless properties on a disabled interface is wrong from the beginning. Aug 30 06:04:58 openmoko: 03werner * r5579 10/trunk/gta02-core/ (Makefile modules/mkloe): Aug 30 06:04:58 openmoko: - Makefile: use "make loe" instead of running mkloe directly, so that we can Aug 30 06:04:58 openmoko: add local fancy stuff Aug 30 06:04:58 openmoko: - modules/Makefile: shortcut for mkloe, Poscript handling, and cleanup Aug 30 06:04:58 openmoko: - modules/mkloe: added -ps option to convert all modules to Postscript Aug 30 06:05:12 lindi-: are you sure that's needed? On many cards i saw until you do "ifconfig blablabla up" you can't even initiate the scan. Aug 30 06:06:38 PaulFertser: i only know that budfive's patch "works for me" very well :) Aug 30 06:07:21 lindi-: ok, do i understand it right that your particular problem is that the driver crashes if you try to change any wireless property on an inactive interface? Aug 30 06:07:46 PaulFertser: no, the problem is that if I "ifconfig eth0 down" then I can not use wifi at all anymore Aug 30 06:08:12 lindi-: that's not what your latest message on the ticket says Aug 30 06:08:54 PaulFertser: it says 'I can ifconfig up/down as many times as I want' Aug 30 06:09:41 lindi-: i meant the latest message describing the problem. With steps to reproduce, the last step is sudo iwconfig eth0 power off Aug 30 06:11:08 PaulFertser: well i was just looking for ways to crash it since crashes are much easier to analyze than "wifi does not work after foo" Aug 30 06:12:13 lindi-: ok, so you want me to try to "ifconfig down/up" several times and then to try to use wifi... Aug 30 06:12:24 PaulFertser: for example yes Aug 30 06:15:12 lindi-: why do you consider this usecase important? Aug 30 06:15:42 PaulFertser: I stop wifi by doing 'ifdown eth0' Aug 30 06:15:49 PaulFertser: that does ifconfig eth0 down internally Aug 30 06:15:57 lindi-: sure Aug 30 06:16:13 lindi-: i propose to unbind the driver whenever it's to put down. Aug 30 06:16:17 also i've heard wicd does 'ifconfig eth0 down' Aug 30 06:18:08 lindi-: proper power-saving is guaranteed only if you rmmod the module or at least unbind it. So whenever wifi is not used the user is supposed to do that, not ifconfig eth0 down. I agree it'd be nice to have it working that way too but is it really worth the trouble when you can simply unbinding/bind it? Aug 30 06:18:39 lindi-: and sure, i can reproduce that it doesn't work at all after ifconfig down. Aug 30 06:18:56 PaulFertser: well werner's comment is "unbind/bind did not solve the problem (!)" Aug 30 06:19:32 PaulFertser: having to patch all these programs to do unbind for the specific wifi driver is going to be tricky too Aug 30 06:19:37 lindi-: without that one-liner it didn't, yes Aug 30 06:19:51 upstream surely won't take such fixes Aug 30 06:20:04 lindi-: why patching? I propose to simply wrap wpa_supplicant invocation. Aug 30 06:20:08 lindi-: which upstream? Aug 30 06:20:13 PaulFertser: of wicd for example Aug 30 06:20:34 PaulFertser: or dhclient? any program that brings the interface up or down Aug 30 06:20:52 i'm not using wpa_supplicant in unencrypted networks Aug 30 06:21:03 lindi-: are you sure dhclient will bring the interface down if it's already up? Aug 30 06:21:22 lindi-: (not using wpa_supplicant for open nets) why? Aug 30 06:22:59 PaulFertser: one less process :) Aug 30 06:23:39 # IP address changed. Bringing down the interface will delete all routes, Aug 30 06:23:39 # and clear the ARP cache. Aug 30 06:23:39 ifconfig $interface inet 0 down Aug 30 06:23:43 from ifconfig sources Aug 30 06:23:50 from dhclient sources Aug 30 06:24:29 why would one use wpa_supplicant for an open network Aug 30 06:25:16 Ke: for consistency and auto-configuration. Aug 30 06:27:54 lindi-: i've just tried, here dhclient didn't put the interface down after the first invocation, wifi still works... Aug 30 06:30:13 lindi-: what about another proposal: revert 9c4451ff31b937a478f3d3eabef30b71cbe12b12 and declare we don't care about rfkill? Aug 30 06:35:49 lindi-: or what about using the driver of pre-rfkill times, 4836494d233cd34fe194ff2040d62e4109067d79 (also d5119bd8f7a606c9e05b022a703b9df7dcc14730 and some other minor fixes might be needed). Aug 30 06:37:09 lindi-: i'm all in favor of fixing the driver properly but since nobody wants to spend enough time no it we have to compromise... Aug 30 06:44:06 PaulFertser: dhclient puts the interface down when the ip address changes Aug 30 06:44:11 PaulFertser: what's your lease time ? Aug 30 06:46:36 PaulFertser: i really don't know the internals Aug 30 06:46:54 PaulFertser: i just know that either using b8b36e5ec3db71d5 from january or using current andy-tracking with budfive's patch works for me (TM) :P Aug 30 06:47:00 lindi-: i agree that if the lease time is short the user will get in trouble. Aug 30 06:48:51 lindi-: if you view "git log drivers/ar6000" you'll see how much of untested/wip code went there... Aug 30 06:51:24 lindi-: so what do you say about using the driver with 9c4451ff31b937a478f3d3eabef30b71cbe12b12 reverted? Probably it's the cleanest solution... Too bad Michael will be upset but hell, we're not guilty he's using non-standard stuff. Aug 30 06:52:08 PaulFertser: well if it works then why not. again, i really don't understand the driver Aug 30 06:52:39 lindi-: do you think it's "ok" if we declare all rfkill-related races as WONTFIX then? Aug 30 06:52:50 PaulFertser: no idea, i have never used rfkill Aug 30 06:52:57 at least knowingly Aug 30 06:53:17 lindi-: all i know is that Michael always reports those because he's android dev. Aug 30 06:53:19 Does anyone else get: "unable to enumerate USB device on port *" Aug 30 06:53:25 ? Aug 30 06:53:44 AlexC: when? Aug 30 06:54:00 when you connect your neo to a usb port Aug 30 06:54:03 in dmesg Aug 30 06:54:17 i can't connect to my neo because of it Aug 30 06:54:52 AlexC: are you doing something fancy? If not, check your cable/usb hub etc. Aug 30 06:55:10 nothing fancy Aug 30 06:55:16 internal hub Aug 30 06:55:24 standard cable from openmoko Aug 30 06:55:32 brand new neo Aug 30 06:55:40 AlexC: is the system fully booted? Aug 30 06:56:08 yes Aug 30 06:56:16 AlexC: try another cable please Aug 30 06:56:22 i'm rebooting with factory settings now Aug 30 06:56:27 i don't have another Aug 30 06:56:30 What's factory settings? Aug 30 06:56:42 system defaults Aug 30 06:56:51 AlexC: on FR? Are there any? Aug 30 06:57:01 for the os Aug 30 06:57:07 qtopia Aug 30 06:57:29 it came pre-installed Aug 30 06:57:47 AlexC: does dfu-util sees your device when you boot to NOR u-boot? Aug 30 06:58:34 what is dfu-util? Aug 30 06:58:52 and "NOR u-boot"? Aug 30 07:00:04 AlexC: read the wiki please Aug 30 07:00:32 which section? Aug 30 07:00:39 AlexC: booting freerunner Aug 30 07:00:45 AlexC: flashing freerunner Aug 30 07:04:52 Okay i'm on nand boot menu Aug 30 07:05:09 which option do i select? Aug 30 07:06:16 AlexC: no option Aug 30 07:06:18 set console to usb Aug 30 07:06:22 oh Aug 30 07:06:24 AlexC: just connect to your host Aug 30 07:06:26 too late :/ Aug 30 07:06:30 AlexC: and see if it enumerates Aug 30 07:06:45 AlexC: the one you selected doesn't matter, connect it to host Aug 30 07:08:52 okay i connected, thankyou Aug 30 07:09:16 AlexC: so, since you device is brand-new i suggest you do the following: Aug 30 07:09:36 AlexC: upgrade your GSM firmware (GSM/Firmware wikipage). Aug 30 07:09:55 AlexC: then upgrade your NAND bootloader (to the latest u-boot or Qi, see the relevant wiki pages). Aug 30 07:10:21 AlexC: then choose some decent software and use it either by flashing to NAND or by loading from uSD. Aug 30 07:10:33 okay Aug 30 07:10:37 thanks for your help Aug 30 07:10:39 :) Aug 30 07:13:53 AlexC: (decent software) afaik you have a choice between an OE-based SHR unstable and Debian. Others are more exotic, you'll find out about them yourself. Aug 30 07:19:39 debian is a bit unfinished even the installer breaks Aug 30 07:23:57 Ke: who cares? Installation by hand is simple enough. Aug 30 07:24:29 simple yes, painful beyond description, yes Aug 30 07:25:26 Ke: why painful? I did it even before the installer supported Qi and it was the first system i installed on FR and the first debootstrap i did in my life. Aug 30 07:25:44 my debian install worked fine too Aug 30 07:25:56 no idea when that was Aug 30 07:26:16 the debootstrap part is trivial, getting something to install with is not Aug 30 07:26:34 you'll still need some other distro than debian to do this Aug 30 07:26:45 and all the other infrastructure Aug 30 07:27:18 Ke: i used OM2007 that came pre-installed on my device, no changes made. Aug 30 07:27:35 Ke: or i could have used my laptop's cardreader with the same result. Aug 30 07:27:35 gfy Aug 30 07:27:48 with qemu perhaps Aug 30 07:27:54 I have x86 laptop Aug 30 07:27:56 Ke: why qemu? Aug 30 07:28:02 =oP Aug 30 07:28:16 Ke: why do you think it's necessary to run "native" to do debootstrap? Aug 30 07:28:35 because you are? Aug 30 07:28:41 there is foreign Aug 30 07:28:53 but you'll still need to do the second stage Aug 30 07:29:26 Ke: can you already boot something after the first stage? Aug 30 07:29:32 PaulFertser: not really Aug 30 07:30:13 definitely not in the future when there will be initramfs Aug 30 07:30:24 (that won't get built until you do second stage) Aug 30 07:30:25 Ke: well, anyway even OM2007 was enough to install Debian without much trouble. Aug 30 07:30:27 PaulFertser: anyways I probably made some silly choices, but all of those choises were quite the norm on other platforms Aug 30 07:31:10 like using wlan instead of usb Aug 30 07:31:27 which had to be fixed Aug 30 07:33:47 om2009 autosuspends => had to be fixed Aug 30 07:34:12 om2007 has no proper terminal/keyboard trivially available Aug 30 07:35:10 I guess debian is trivial, once you are well off with anything else Aug 30 07:36:07 Ke: i used ssh over usb, connected to om2007 without issues etc. Aug 30 07:36:32 still wlan should have worked Aug 30 07:37:46 PaulFertser: so you tried installing debian just as you got the device with no prior experience on openmoko? Aug 30 07:38:09 Ke: basically yes Aug 30 07:38:13 ok Aug 30 07:38:17 Ke: other than reading the community ml for some time Aug 30 07:38:24 =oP Aug 30 07:39:02 I tried the install expecting things to work as documented (or assumed from properly working platforms) Aug 30 07:39:48 Ke: i knew that install doesn't support Qi so i didn't have any false hopes. Aug 30 08:54:54 PaulFertser: (stalker vs roadside-picnic) hmm, I don't think the diffs are so much more significant than with any other movie based on a book Aug 30 08:55:58 DocScrutinizer: sucky movies are closely following books but it doesn't make sense usually. But have you read the book to compare with Stalker movie? Aug 30 08:56:33 loong long time ago, yes Aug 30 08:56:48 It's just really-really different Aug 30 08:57:53 I should get me the book to re-read Aug 30 08:58:12 for sure always worth it Aug 30 09:36:09 motd Aug 30 10:43:19 what's again the name of this tiny X which SHR uses? Aug 30 10:43:30 kdrive? Aug 30 10:45:07 Ke: yeah, thanks :) Aug 30 10:45:13 naeg: yes, kdrive but it's deprecated, everybody's adviced to use x.org now Aug 30 10:45:47 we use x.org anyway Aug 30 10:46:01 but i thought we could provide both, but if you say it's not a good idea Aug 30 10:48:32 naeg: btw, i'm still puzzled why my right-click hack didn't work for you Aug 30 10:50:00 naeg: kdrive is reallyreally dead by now. Probably some barely supported device like iPAQ hx4700 still needs it but not gta01 or gta02. Some kdrive features are "ported" to X.org already and upstream deprecated kdrive several years ago. Aug 30 10:50:32 PaulFertser: i will open a ticket at our site, may the others like it the way you are doing it and then i will come back to you ;) Aug 30 10:51:07 naeg: but have you already tried it yourself? It definetely worked here. And i can try on my host it too. There's just no reason for it to not work ;) Aug 30 10:51:44 naeg: i know there was some nice panel applet in GPE to do something like that but it's unsupported by now. Aug 30 10:52:28 naeg: i guess either something like that should be employed or for those who prefer "long" click to simulate the right button a tslib modification can be done. Aug 30 10:53:30 PaulFertser: i don't think that tslib modification is the right thing for us, since we support more than one device and may someone else takes any other driver, we don't force anything, you know ;) Aug 30 10:53:51 so a kernel/x.org thing would be better Aug 30 10:53:59 but i have to talk to the others anyway Aug 30 10:54:45 naeg: simulating right click inside the kernel? Hm, not sure. Aug 30 10:55:06 naeg: same with X server, probably even more weird idea. Aug 30 10:56:08 PaulFertser: it would be also much effort to find it our for every driver Aug 30 10:57:03 naeg: tslib solution is generic enough Aug 30 10:57:27 naeg: my hack or a good application like GPE's would be too Aug 30 10:58:01 PaulFertser: but as i said, maybe not all are using tslib Aug 30 10:58:12 then we need to find it out for all drivers Aug 30 10:58:32 naeg: all drivers of what? Touchscreens? Why can a touchscreen driver not use tslib? Aug 30 11:00:21 naeg: also what is "other drivers" anyway? Touchscreen is exposed by kernel in a generic standard way. Like an input device. With EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_ABS capabilities. Aug 30 11:00:55 PaulFertser: i can't name one now, but there are others, i am quite sure Aug 30 11:01:19 naeg: others drivers for touchscreen? Aug 30 11:02:23 PaulFertser: evtouch Aug 30 11:02:24 naeg: kernel-level or X-level? Or what? Or is that some non-X FB-only stuff that uses kernel interface but not tslib that you want to support? Aug 30 11:03:21 we want to support everything with an arm processor ;) Aug 30 11:03:46 but non-X things like qtmoko can also use tslib Aug 30 11:03:59 naeg: (everything with arm) even arm7? :-O Aug 30 11:04:15 PaulFertser: we even plan to make repos for every armv* Aug 30 11:04:34 but at first there must be people who need it ;) Aug 30 11:05:02 the openmoko neofreerunner is our main device, but we support atm beagleboard and nokia n8*0 as well Aug 30 11:05:13 naeg: so what about arm7? Aug 30 11:05:38 well, armv4 optimized works on there too, doesn't it? Aug 30 11:05:48 naeg: those chips lack MMU Aug 30 11:06:31 well, then they aren't supported yet Aug 30 11:06:58 but would this be solved by compiling everthing again but optimized for armv7? Aug 30 11:07:41 "porting" from armvX to armvY shouldn't be as hard as x86 to arm Aug 30 11:09:01 naeg: you clearly have no idea about noMMU :( Aug 30 11:10:54 i don't get why the devs should say "armv7 need no MMU" Aug 30 11:11:10 needs* Aug 30 11:11:23 mmu adds cost and complexity to the chip Aug 30 11:11:32 Many apps don't need it Aug 30 11:12:00 but why only armv7? does armv9 lack mmu also? Aug 30 11:13:21 naeg: i'm not talking about "armv7", i'm talking about arm7 Aug 30 11:14:44 ahhh, this changes the situation ;) Aug 30 11:15:21 we just talked about supporting armv4-armv9, since these are the only ones we had to work with yet Aug 30 11:15:43 but not that much people want to use it yet, since we don't have that much to offer yet Aug 30 11:19:00 hi there :) Aug 30 11:21:10 arm7 is in the nintendo gameboys, isnt it? Aug 30 11:24:33 Using mokonnect on my newly flashed phone just hung the whole phone. Aug 30 11:24:58 Inserting the usb-kable made it go into kernel panic. Aug 30 11:25:40 Is that a feature? ;) Aug 30 11:28:23 openmoko: 03alvieboy * r5580 10/trunk/gta02-core/ (components/wm3236aq.lib wlan.sch): WLAN fixes (refs and chip symbol) Aug 30 11:28:41 Daramarak, you should use more recent distros Aug 30 11:29:09 max_posedon: Like the SHR-unstable from 16 aug? Aug 30 11:29:12 this bug was fixed some time ago (kernel panic when connecting usb to windows) Aug 30 11:29:37 hm... shr-unstable from 16 aug should work. Aug 30 11:30:07 max_posedon: Yes thought so. But this was probably connected to the mokonnect hanging. Aug 30 11:31:19 max_posedon: Otherwise I can connect and disconnect the usb as much as I like.

Aug 30 11:43:01 naeg: no, only with matchbox-wm. Aug 30 11:43:19 i tried it under e17...i will give it a try with fluxbox Aug 30 11:43:20 naeg: can you tell me if "xmodmap -e 'pointer = 2 1'" works for you at all? Aug 30 11:43:32 naeg: there shouldn't be any wm-related differences. Aug 30 11:43:47 but i am not sure if where i can rightclick under illlume Aug 30 11:43:49 -l Aug 30 11:43:58 -if Aug 30 11:44:01 o.O Aug 30 11:44:15 naeg: start xterm, there you'll see if it's right click or left click. Aug 30 11:44:53 i tried to rightclick in xterm, afair Aug 30 11:47:23 PaulFertser: is matchbox fingerfriendly, or do you use something to touch? Aug 30 11:50:50 naeg: i don't remember, i'm using illume currently. Aug 30 11:51:29 naeg: iirc matchbox was finger-nail-almost-acceptable Aug 30 11:51:49 PaulFertser: do you rightclick there? seems like i deleted your scripts :( or at least i can't find them, sry. can you tell me it once more? Aug 30 11:53:06 no ok, its in the logs Aug 30 11:57:10 PaulFertser: seems not to work in fluxbox too Aug 30 11:58:12 I seem to be able to reproduce the mokonnect hanging too. Aug 30 11:58:35 Is it just me or has the Wifi become more and more unstable lately? Aug 30 12:02:21 xmodmap -e 'pointer = 2 1' works Aug 30 12:04:38 i know why now, waitclick doesn't work, it changes the buttons and before i do anything it changes them again Aug 30 12:05:04 naeg: are you using waitclick exactly the way i did? ;) Aug 30 12:05:41 PaulFertser: yes, but i think i don't have input-event Aug 30 12:06:01 naeg: aha, that makes difference indeed. I got it with input-utils from debian. Aug 30 12:07:17 well we don't have that packaged yet, nor xev Aug 30 12:07:46 any other way to do it? or do i have topackage input-utils Aug 30 12:12:53 PaulFertser: other dev showed intertest in your rightclick script, but he want to use it when e.g. pressing AUX Aug 30 12:16:10 naeg: xev and input-utils are very handy to have Aug 30 12:16:55 naeg: no problem in binding it to AUX... Aug 30 12:17:51 PaulFertser: i will at first package patched tslib with rightclick emulation, then i will package xev and try to get the script working, then binding keys...power button isn't binded also Aug 30 13:06:28 naeg: looks like evtouch has ONEANDAHALFTAP which simulates right click. Aug 30 13:08:16 * SpeedEvil wonders about a ring containing an accellerometer for morse input. Aug 30 13:11:52 PaulFertser: ONEANDHALFTAP? Aug 30 13:12:25 * SpeedEvil ponders a keyboard using one and 34/105 tap for 'e'.

Aug 30 13:27:48 naeg: ;) Aug 30 13:28:47 yeah, but i just googled "linux touchscreen driver" to find any other tsdriver ;) Aug 30 13:29:04 we are a good team ;) Aug 30 13:36:04 I've a problem with my FR running SHR unstable after an update. In settings I'm missing some options because "fso or ophonekitd" isn't running. I would prefer if this could be fixed without flashing the device again. Aug 30 13:37:47 When I try to start ophonekitd manually, it looks like the service-script just stops, since I get no status (ok/fail) after the command. Aug 30 13:42:30 hi Aug 30 13:42:45 im trying to install shr on a gta-01, where must I extract the modules in order to avoid the "unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)" error ? Aug 30 14:12:25 Hi all Aug 30 14:12:27 :) Aug 30 14:28:35 hi Aug 30 14:35:43 Does anyone know why after an opkg upgrade some of the packages are still listed under opkg list_upgradable? Aug 30 14:55:31 Have anyone started on a "screensaver" that displays phonestatus as a marqee or something like that? Aug 30 14:55:56 Daramarak: having the display on uses lots of power Aug 30 14:56:55 SpeedEvil: Yes but when I am at work or am home the phone is "docked". Then it would be nice if it just displayed information for me. Aug 30 15:01:30 k Aug 30 16:33:53 hi :) Aug 30 16:34:15 I'm new to OpenMoko, and the enlightenment WM is giving me a hard time Aug 30 16:34:54 every now and then I have to power off the phone by removing the battery because of unresponsiveness. Aug 30 16:35:31 as a result, some settings in enlightenment seem to get corrupted and afterwards I am unable to start it again Aug 30 16:36:10 (I keep getting the "Enlightenment error - This is very bad, Enlightenment SEGV'd") Aug 30 16:36:31 lanjoe9: remove your e directory Aug 30 16:36:40 mm Aug 30 16:36:43 where is it? Aug 30 16:36:53 ah I see Aug 30 16:36:54 .e ? Aug 30 16:36:59 yes Aug 30 16:37:04 ok!! Aug 30 16:37:25 rm -rf ~/.e/e/config maybe is enough Aug 30 16:37:26 don't know Aug 30 16:38:16 haha Aug 30 16:38:24 ok, I'll try it next time :) Aug 30 16:38:31 thanks a lot, it's working again Aug 30 16:38:47 np, that's why we are here Aug 30 16:39:03 previously I ended up reflashing :P Aug 30 16:39:16 mm Aug 30 16:39:19 what distro are you using? Aug 30 16:39:25 SHR-unstable Aug 30 16:39:45 i haven't reflashed my shr-unstabe for months now! :) Aug 30 16:39:47 I've tried a SHR-testing, OM2009 and android Aug 30 16:39:49 :) "-unstable" should give you a clue about what to expect! Aug 30 16:40:05 mwester: so far it seems more stable than -testing xD Aug 30 16:40:40 Yes, indeed - but it is nowhere near a production or even beta or alpha quality. Aug 30 16:40:57 Still, it's far far better than any other distro for the device. Aug 30 16:41:04 mwester: precisely Aug 30 16:41:06 :P Aug 30 16:41:53 any wi fi config manager you would recommend me? I've tried mokonnect and mofi Aug 30 16:42:08 NWA can be nice when it works Aug 30 16:42:24 (for wifi) Aug 30 16:42:42 thanks ndnihil, I'll give it a try Aug 30 16:42:47 doesnt seem to be too fond of avahi though Aug 30 16:42:57 (is anything fond of avahi?) Aug 30 16:43:06 :) Aug 30 16:43:16 it takes one of the local/tmp/private addresses from avahi and considers itself done Aug 30 16:43:29 but fuck avahi Aug 30 16:43:37 I disabled it Aug 30 16:44:54 :) Aug 30 16:45:10 mwester: Hey :D Aug 30 16:45:45 lanjoe9: i'd recommend editing wpa_supplicant with vim, works for open/WEP/WPA networks Aug 30 16:47:04 it does not! Aug 30 16:47:13 not for me anyway Aug 30 16:47:17 PaulFertser: I've had mixed results :P Aug 30 16:47:38 doing an opkg upgrade in hopes of addressing that Aug 30 16:48:09 so far the best for me has been scripts with iwconfig and ifconfig :P Aug 30 16:48:27 I never tested mococonnect, but thought that one worked quite fine, no? Aug 30 16:48:41 * SeligArkin rather likes wpa_supplicant and ifup/down on her debian install, I enjoy being able to specify what to do for different access points, when at home, I can tell it to poke my laptop to show notices on it when a phone call comes in instead of ringing, or some such (Just a idea now, nowhere near ready to implement. :P) Aug 30 16:48:42 Zorkman: not with my wireless network :S Aug 30 16:49:29 Zorkman: it usually seems to connect, but it picks some funky IP address instead of using dhcp Aug 30 16:49:48 lanjoe9: that could be avahi Aug 30 16:49:53 I was quite happy with wpa_supplicant, but I dislike having to editing my supplicant file each time I have a new network to add/remove. Aug 30 16:50:06 am i the only one who hates opkg... -.- Aug 30 16:50:08 I have little knowlegde about it, but it seems damn strange that those things don't "just work" :) Aug 30 16:50:15 naeg: no, you are most certainly not the only one Aug 30 16:50:26 naeg: everybody does :) Aug 30 16:50:27 Daramarak: not specifying the ssid makes it connect to anything available, I beleive Aug 30 16:50:39 try ArchMobile! we use pacman : DDD Aug 30 16:50:48 :) Aug 30 16:50:54 probably the best packetmanager Aug 30 16:50:58 SeligArkin: Except wpa and weps Aug 30 16:50:59 I would be 100% ok with apt Aug 30 16:51:02 waka waka waka waka waka. >.> Aug 30 16:51:25 * lanjoe9 is playing with openMooCow Aug 30 16:51:27 :P Aug 30 16:51:30 Daramarak: I beleive there is a frontend to do this. :P Aug 30 16:51:39 lanjoe9: that was amusing for all of 3 minutes :) Aug 30 16:51:59 openvibe gives much more pleasure ;-) Aug 30 16:52:03 and that was probably because it took me 2.5 minutes to find someone to show Aug 30 16:52:10 SeligArkin: What is the frontend called? Aug 30 16:52:26 Daramarak: I am afraid I don't remember, sorry. :/ Aug 30 16:52:41 can i somehow configure opkg that i don't have to type in the version of packages? Aug 30 16:52:47 gentoo pulls it in with the gtk flag IIRC Aug 30 16:53:01 you have to type in version of package? Aug 30 16:53:12 here it defaults to latest Aug 30 16:53:30 naeg: same here, no version needed Aug 30 16:53:37 i think so, if i do for example opkg install anything it loads and loads...if i do opkg install anything-0.1 it installs in a few seconds Aug 30 16:54:00 mm Aug 30 16:54:08 http://www.usenix.org/event/hotos09/tech/full_papers/saxena/saxena_html/ - a paper on swapping to flash - and the performance benefits of going with a new swap subsystem for flash. Aug 30 16:54:10 you're probably just saving it from having to search through the repos to find latest Aug 30 16:54:13 What would have been cool would be to have a big set of standard essids and passwords. Many times I find hotspots where the router/access points still have the default security. Aug 30 16:54:16 severak times that i noticed that Aug 30 16:54:22 several* Aug 30 16:54:44 wow Aug 30 16:54:47 ndnihil: but if this takes so long, opkg really sux Aug 30 16:54:50 opkg upgrades the kernel in flash Aug 30 16:55:02 yes, opkg does really suck Aug 30 16:55:17 but what you're experiencing is likely lack of resources on the phone Aug 30 16:55:23 apt is just as slow Aug 30 16:55:34 i can't complain with pacman Aug 30 16:55:43 so use pacman on your phone Aug 30 16:56:09 i do, but our system is not usable as daily phone Aug 30 16:56:22 better say only with qtmoko, but then i prefer shr Aug 30 16:56:24 make it useable, or suffer with the rest of us :) Aug 30 16:56:33 i am working on it Aug 30 16:56:42 we are* Aug 30 16:56:52 hrm, opkg upgrade just finished, wonder if this will boot Aug 30 16:57:04 But still opkg is better than having to deliver the phone back to the reseller to have it upgraded :) Aug 30 16:57:25 Daramarak: I stopped doing that long ago ;) Aug 30 16:57:27 /sign Aug 30 16:57:50 /poster Aug 30 16:57:55 /tits Aug 30 16:58:02 oh noes :( Aug 30 16:58:31 * SeligArkin should work on her Aug 30 16:58:32 erm Aug 30 16:58:41 * SeligArkin should work on her phone frontend thingy-ma-whatsit Aug 30 16:58:59 ? Aug 30 16:59:12 SeligArkin: What's it like? Aug 30 16:59:22 SeligArkin: in the dim and distant future when it's completed. Aug 30 16:59:55 SpeedEvil: still designing it as I go along, I work on minimal information to get what I need. >.> Aug 30 17:02:17 well i am offline for a while cu all Aug 30 17:02:23 and thanks again PaulFertser Aug 30 17:02:52 naeg: luck :) Aug 30 17:11:16 Hi All, Anyone able to help with some uboot trouble ? Aug 30 17:14:57 pa4wdh: yes, install Qi ;) Aug 30 17:15:16 LOL :-) Aug 30 17:15:35 Does Qi already boot from SDHC ? Aug 30 17:17:44 pa4wdh: almost always did Aug 30 17:18:18 Oh, ok, i thought i found somewhere that it didn't .... Aug 30 17:19:02 uboot itself seems to work, but the host PC doesn't see the ACM deviec when i boot from NAND, NOR version works fine Aug 30 17:20:25 pa4wdh: you need to do some "set console to usb" option Aug 30 17:21:21 Sorry, even that doesn't work. Host sees a new USB device connecting but the ACM driver seems to ignore it Aug 30 17:21:47 Just found a page about Qi, it indeed boots from a SD, so i'll try that :-) Aug 30 17:25:29 Qi looks quite easy to setup :-) Aug 30 17:25:46 Anyone got vagalume to work on SHR-unstable? Aug 30 17:26:03 pa4wdh: it is, and more easier to manage, no chances to screw one's environment. Aug 30 17:26:14 I just get an "Error initializing audio system" Aug 30 17:28:10 Daramarak: do you have bass fix applied btw? Aug 30 17:28:19 Daramarak: and why vagalume and not intone? Aug 30 17:29:21 Daramarak: did you install vagalume from the repos? Aug 30 17:30:14 PaulFertser: yes i did Aug 30 17:30:28 PaulFertser: But no bassfix yet though Aug 30 17:30:57 PaulFertser: I have intone, it works fine. I wanted to have a look at vagalume though. Aug 30 17:33:42 Daramarak: no idea then... Aug 30 17:42:35 PaulFertser: Thanks for your help, my freerunner is now booting it's fresh gentoo install from SD :-) Aug 30 17:43:58 pa4wdh: wow, congratulations Aug 30 17:45:25 Next problem: usb networking doesn't start in gentoo :-( Aug 30 17:46:04 pa4wdh: is g_ether loaded? Aug 30 17:46:36 I copied the kernel+modules from 2008.12, so that should work, booting from NAND now to fix :-) Aug 30 17:47:12 pa4wdh: OM2008.12? bad idea Aug 30 17:47:34 Yeah, i know, but it was enough to get gentoo going :-) Aug 30 17:47:46 pa4wdh: you should have used the latest from SHR unstable (for reliable wifi you need to have 9c4451ff31b937a478f3d3eabef30b71cbe12b12 reverted) Aug 30 17:49:14 Maybe i'll flash shr into it later :-) When i rebooted to om2008.12 usb networking did work there either, while it did before Aug 30 17:49:18 pa4wdh, I suggest copy kernel and modules from shr-unstable Aug 30 17:50:06 and check that your host have all drivers Aug 30 17:50:28 Ok, i'll try that, but first i need usb networking to get anything done there :-) Aug 30 17:51:23 *phew* .... stupid firewalls blocking ping fooled me :-) Aug 30 17:51:49 Is there any kernel available which doesn't use modules ? Aug 30 17:53:29 pa4wdh: only the one you compile yourself from "moredrivers" defconfig Aug 30 17:53:30 Just the most recent kernel from here ? http://build.shr-project.org/shr-unstable/images/om-gta02/ Aug 30 17:54:06 pa4wdh: yes Aug 30 17:54:07 Thanks PaulFertser ... i'll try compiling later Aug 30 18:05:20 PaulFertser: Still no luck with g_ether, see if i can force it to load via some config file ... Aug 30 18:11:05 g_ether in Gentoo should be forced preloaded yes Aug 30 18:11:16 most easy way - in some init.d script Aug 30 18:11:43 but I suggest just compile kernel yourself Aug 30 18:12:16 Thanks max_posedon. Now booting from NAND to modify :-) Aug 30 18:12:30 max_posedon: doesn't gentoo have something like /etc/modules?= Aug 30 18:12:42 it have Aug 30 18:12:43 does ticket #1024 is fixed in A6 Aug 30 18:13:06 oscillating GSM Aug 30 18:13:33 breeze: no Aug 30 18:13:37 breeze: not even in A7 Aug 30 18:13:51 so whats the solution for it Aug 30 18:14:09 max_posedon: (compile in suggestion) what about using other usb gadget drivers? Aug 30 18:14:20 breeze: replace one easily-accessible capacitor Aug 30 18:14:23 or does it happen very frequently Aug 30 18:14:31 PaulFertser, what about step-by-step way? Aug 30 18:14:47 max_posedon: what way? Aug 30 18:15:11 max_posedon: Should i use /etc/modules.autoload.d/ or /etc/conf.d/modules ? Aug 30 18:15:32 easily-accessible? hrmph Aug 30 18:16:08 pa4wdh, 2nd one Aug 30 18:17:02 PaulFertser, step-by-step, e.g. don't fix all problems in one time) Aug 30 18:18:18 max_posedon: i thought you've tried the unbinding method and wanted to declare it as a good substitute for "rmmod g_ether". Aug 30 18:25:11 hi again Aug 30 18:27:40 max_posedon: now my "ethernet" device on the host changed from usb0 to eth4, is there any method to force it to use usb0 ? Aug 30 18:27:58 pa4wdh: using usb0 would be wrong! Aug 30 18:28:08 pa4wdh: ethX is correct Aug 30 18:28:11 pa4wdh, thereis, but are you sure that you want? Aug 30 18:28:53 you may even have neo0 if you want) Aug 30 18:29:11 max_posedon: My freerunner is connected to a router, everything is configured for usb0, and usb0 had a nice relation to he hardware :-) Aug 30 18:29:25 pa4wdh, look at /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules Aug 30 18:30:18 but plz, don't return to us with network problems with usb0 name Aug 30 18:31:02 max_posedon: usb ethernet is not yet listed there, any suggestion for a rule ? Aug 30 18:32:13 you see there smth for eth4 Aug 30 18:32:20 just edit this line Aug 30 18:32:46 max_posedon: No, just eth0-3 which are the normal ethernet ports Aug 30 18:34:04 after attaching neo, udev create some rule Aug 30 18:34:15 after rule created, it can be edited Aug 30 18:35:19 No, sorry, it doesn't happen ... could be due to the very limited environment in the router Aug 30 18:36:17 That's it, it's missing the udev file which generates the persistent net rules ... Aug 30 18:36:54 its not a hard add your specific rule Aug 30 18:37:08 if you have 4 examples) Aug 30 18:37:54 That's true, but i'm not really a udev hero :-) Aug 30 18:39:51 openmoko: 03werner * r5585 10/trunk/gta02-core/modules/mkloe: (log message trimmed) Aug 30 18:39:51 openmoko: - modules/mkloe: added -one-ps option to convert all modules to a combined Aug 30 18:39:51 openmoko: Postscript file Aug 30 18:39:51 openmoko: - modules/mkloe: added -one-pdf option to convert all modules to a combined Aug 30 18:39:51 openmoko: Postscript file Aug 30 18:39:52 openmoko: - modules/mkloe: accept --option as well as -option Aug 30 18:39:56 openmoko: - modules/Makefile: added "make gen" to generate combined Postscript and PDF Aug 30 18:40:01 pa4wdh: but you have examples handy ;) Aug 30 18:43:20 PaulFertser: It worked :-) Indeed i copied a line, changed mac address and the name and it works :-) Aug 30 18:43:38 I can reach my openmoko too :-) Aug 30 18:52:57 max_posedon: I'm about to start a xorg-server emerge, which video driver should i use ? Aug 30 18:54:52 I suggest start from fbdev, later switch to xf86-videl-glamo Aug 30 18:55:14 I'm now working on ebuilds for drm-aware glamo Aug 30 18:55:26 max_posedon: kms-based? Aug 30 18:55:33 yes Aug 30 18:55:41 Thanks Aug 30 18:56:21 I still need somebody who can answer my questions, but still... Aug 30 18:57:12 What's your questions ? Aug 30 18:57:18 lindi-, btw, since you are in changelog Aug 30 18:57:37 as I understand libdrm is unneed if I use drm kernel branch? Aug 30 18:58:13 Weiss, ? Aug 30 18:58:40 Sounds like a question i don't know the answer for .... Aug 30 18:59:55 It sounds logical to use drm in the kernel *or* libdrm .... Aug 30 19:00:27 or to use libdrm to access the kernel drm module Aug 30 19:00:42 pa4wdh, some opinion here, but, I want confirm Aug 30 19:01:09 also it might be that libdrm or kernel doesn't implemented in same quility Aug 30 19:01:27 hellp? Aug 30 19:01:35 pointer to hell? Aug 30 19:01:53 huh?

Aug 30 19:02:53 max_posedon: i haven't been following kms stuff very closely yet Aug 30 19:02:55 max_posedon: Maybe you can find the answer on lkml ? Aug 30 19:03:04 max_posedon: or drm Aug 30 19:03:36 aj_, so, what about read error message? Aug 30 19:03:48 I can make setup fine Aug 30 19:03:53 However, i have to go.

Aug 30 19:53:02 m_abs: hold your keyboard up in front of you and look at the home row Aug 30 19:53:28 m_abs: now cross your eyes a little so the 'G' and 'H' overlap.

Settings complains that fso or ophonekitd isn't running. I would prefer not to reflash the device to fix it. Aug 30 19:57:35 PaulFertser: there are people who clean their keyboards (the first thing i did when i got to my workspace for an internship this summer was getting some plastic cleaner and cleaning the really messy keyboard) Aug 30 19:58:25 m_abs: have you tried "opkg update && opkg upgrade" today? Aug 30 19:58:47 About 10 hours ago. Aug 30 19:59:05 I'll try again. Aug 30 19:59:25 m_abs: try and report, if it still doesn't work i think somebody'll be able to help you. At least i'll try.

Aug 30 23:22:54 ok, does anyone here have any tips running openmoko on a palm tx Aug 30 23:29:18 hello? Aug 30 23:29:30 aj_: ever'body's asleep Aug 30 23:29:46 aj_: also there's nothing special in SHR or other openmoko-targeted distros Aug 30 23:29:48 awww Aug 30 23:30:07 aj_: either you install something OE-based on your palm or Debian or whatever you want. Aug 30 23:30:18 i know, there is one site that shows how to make it but when i go to boot, cocoboot can't find the rootfs Aug 30 23:30:21 and I have gotten it to work before Aug 30 23:30:28 aj_: i don't think many people in this channel have experience with palm tx Aug 30 23:30:49 darn Aug 30 23:31:02 aj_: also there's no software called "openmoko" currently, probably only OM2009 distro but it's being abandoned. Aug 30 23:31:37 hipitihop: rm -rf ~/.e Aug 30 23:31:48 hipitihop: will remove all E settings Aug 30 23:31:50 why is it being abandoned? Aug 30 23:32:11 aj_: SHR is going forward, no need to maintain two separate but very close OE-based distros Aug 30 23:32:21 PaulFertser: bugger I'm sure you have told me that before....easier to train a monkey sometimes :-) Aug 30 23:32:29 hipitihop: hehe Aug 30 23:32:34 hipitihop: good night Aug 30 23:33:20 PaulFertser: gnite Aug 30 23:40:37 i think it's booting Aug 30 23:41:03 does it usually hang a bit with just a little bit in the bar? Aug 30 23:42:48 takes a while to load :S Aug 30 23:43:38 omg its at the x in the middle of a screen Aug 30 23:44:10 yay it's loading, but i forgot the swap :P Aug 30 23:45:18 swap is paws backwards. Aug 30 23:45:50 Lemmings has a paws mode instead of pause. :) Aug 30 23:49:50 lol Aug 30 23:49:58 it's slower but it works Aug 30 23:50:45 yay, swap makes it faster Aug 30 23:50:47 :P Aug 30 23:50:49 Life in the slow lane, it's sure to make you lose your mind? ;) Aug 30 23:51:12 openmoko really is cool so i hope it stays around Aug 30 23:51:51 Not sufficiently cool to run IceWM, though. ;) Aug 30 23:52:16 it would be great on something like a nokia tablet w/ built in gsm or sim card available for it, all in one laptop Aug 30 23:52:58 The original Eee PC must have been cool because it shipped with IceWM. ;) Aug 30 23:53:06 really? Aug 30 23:53:28 uggh it's so slow Aug 30 23:54:07 opie at least runs faster Aug 30 23:54:58 Yes, on Xandros Linux. My dad bought a white original Eee PC when it was released in 2007. Aug 30 23:55:42 now they run xp Aug 30 23:55:48 and are pretty good Aug 31 00:02:05 how do you convert a jffs2 to an ext3? Aug 31 00:23:09 mount+cp? Aug 31 00:32:27 DocScrutinizer: OK, can you run that by me again? Aug 31 00:36:07 How do I get to the cable to the screen in the FR? Aug 31 00:41:40 I guess I'll need a Torx small enough to undo those screws if I want to get into this thing... I don't have one that small. :( Aug 31 00:45:46 ebay has lots. Aug 31 00:46:23 Digital_Pioneer: you carefully lift the screen away slowly - it's glued on - but should come off. Preheating to 60C first is probably a good plan Aug 31 00:47:26 SpeedEvil: You're telling me to microwave my $400 phone? ;P Aug 31 00:48:14 Digital_Pioneer: yes. If your microwave has an oven mode at 60C. Aug 31 00:48:37 (though personally I'd not use that - but some other means - due to potential for oopses) Aug 31 00:48:53 So open phone, gut it all the way to the screen, heat it up to 60C, and peel the screen off and look for loose wires? Aug 31 00:49:37 that's one option - however - I'd talk to DocScrutinizer about how to remove the screen - I've never done it Aug 31 00:49:50 I will do that. Aug 31 00:51:36 to reach the cable you don't need to "peel" the screen Aug 31 00:51:57 oops Aug 31 00:53:34 hahaha Aug 31 00:53:56 try to take pictures of the microwaving process just in case it goes wrong :-p Aug 31 00:57:33 Digital_Pioneer: for disassembling case see wiki (FR is same procedure as for 1973). when you have the PCBA without case, you easily find the flat cable running from LCM around edge of PCB to component side - it's shielded with a piece of steely fabric sticky tape Aug 31 00:59:00 Digital_Pioneer: you *carefully* remove that sticky starting at component side end, until you uncover the connector where flat cable is contacted on pcb Aug 31 01:00:42 Digital_Pioneer: again *carefully* open the connector (refer to wiki connecting debug board, the connector there is same type) Aug 31 01:02:25 remove the flat plastic cable, clean it with a papaercloth, reseat it into the connector tightly and straight, and close the connector again Aug 31 01:04:17 Digital_Pioneer: then without reassembling start the FR via wallcharger (press battery to contacts for a short while during boot, if your device is of the type that needs this). boot to nor-bootmenu should suffice Aug 31 01:04:32 DocScrutinizer: Sounds fun. The screwdriver I need is the T6? Aug 31 01:05:30 Digital_Pioneer: then see if screen is back to normal, or if you find a component where slight polking changes things Aug 31 01:05:38 yes, T6 Aug 31 01:06:32 DocScrutinizer: So I don't need to heat it up and unglue the screen and all? Aug 31 01:06:48 Digital_Pioneer: be extremely carefull with opening the black lock of connector, it's flimsy Aug 31 01:07:02 no, you don't need Aug 31 01:07:10 Good. :) Aug 31 01:07:24 One other thing. If I use bluetooth, will I still have GSM buzz? Aug 31 01:07:40 no Aug 31 01:07:57 Excellent. Aug 31 01:08:27 DocScrutinizer: Oh, and does the video output to screen go on the same connection as the touchscreen input? Aug 31 01:08:52 Because touchscreen works fine, I can press locations on the screen that I know will suspend or shut it down, and it works. Aug 31 01:09:00 Does that tell you anything useful? Aug 31 01:09:00 Digital_Pioneer: maybe you want to practice with debug connector next to mic, befor starting above action Aug 31 01:09:23 (same conn) yes Aug 31 01:09:45 So is it feasible that it's loose, and still TS works? Aug 31 01:09:47 (tell) no Aug 31 01:10:04 (feasible) yes Aug 31 01:10:34 Digital_Pioneer: what's up with your screen? Aug 31 01:11:06 did you by any means expose lcm to humidity/water/sweat/rain... ? Aug 31 01:12:09 DocScrutinizer: I don't think so. Aug 31 01:12:13 or did temperature rise/fall extremely when/before it failed Aug 31 01:12:21 I don't think so. :P Aug 31 01:12:35 Nothing at all out of the ordinary. Aug 31 01:13:00 SpeedEvil: It's all white, with colored vertical lines, changes when you touch it. Aug 31 01:13:05 any more waranty on the device? Aug 31 01:13:18 But as near as I can tell, what SHOULD be on the screen and what IS have no relationship. Aug 31 01:13:25 DocScrutinizer: I bought it used on eBay. Aug 31 01:13:33 hmm Aug 31 01:13:42 I didn't even know it had a warranty. :P Aug 31 01:14:04 here in EU everything has Aug 31 01:14:13 6 months Aug 31 01:14:27 Digital_Pioneer: have you considered doing the ebay not-as-described thing? Aug 31 01:14:28 Well, I've had it for a year. Aug 31 01:14:31 ah Aug 31 01:14:42 And that's on top of however long the other guy had it. Aug 31 01:15:14 SpeedEvil: It worked just fine when I got it. Now all of the sudden, GSM buzz gives me hell and the screen dies. :( Aug 31 01:15:36 GSM buzz started about a month ago, and the screen died earlier today. Aug 31 01:15:58 * SpeedEvil wonders about high ESR caps. Aug 31 01:16:09 shouldn't be a problem I'd have thought though Aug 31 01:16:31 SpeedEvil: ceram doesn't age? Aug 31 01:16:32 Digital_Pioneer: I assume you don't own a scope? Aug 31 01:16:44 DocScrutinizer: I assume there are electrolytics in the PSU Aug 31 01:16:52 nope Aug 31 01:17:00 Oh well. Aug 31 01:17:01 SpeedEvil: Scope? Microscope? Aug 31 01:17:06 oscilloscope. Aug 31 01:17:12 I'm guessing no then :) Aug 31 01:17:22 Oh, no. :P Aug 31 01:18:07 Digital_Pioneer: first check if reseating the FPC to conn does fix it Aug 31 01:18:18 DocScrutinizer: I have to get it open first. Aug 31 01:18:30 I'd also wonder if a new bat might fix. Aug 31 01:19:14 SpeedEvil: You think my battery could be bad? Aug 31 01:19:37 Digital_Pioneer: It's one thing that ages - I wouldn't usually expct it to cause this though. Aug 31 01:19:48 first the fpc Aug 31 01:20:20 SpeedEvil: Just tried another one, no joy. Aug 31 01:20:25 bat is worth a try Aug 31 01:20:49 but I'd expect things change when on wallcharger then Aug 31 01:21:18 I note a curvy line along the left side of the screen (about 1.5 cm in) that the colors tend to blur around... Looks like something's broken, but IDK. Aug 31 01:21:26 that'll do it Aug 31 01:21:28 it's a crack Aug 31 01:21:33 Yeah. Aug 31 01:21:47 It cracked itself. Aug 31 01:21:47 That's the typical failure you see when there is a crack. Aug 31 01:21:48 :( Aug 31 01:21:59 :( Aug 31 01:22:03 So is it a brick? Or can it be replaced? Aug 31 01:22:12 a crack is clearly visible usually Aug 31 01:22:33 Well, it's visible but not just glaringly obvious. Aug 31 01:22:46 DocScrutinizer: depends on the layer of the screen it's in Aug 31 01:22:56 true Aug 31 01:23:14 Digital_Pioneer: The screen can be replaced. If you can obtain one is anohter question. Aug 31 01:23:18 you can get replacement service Aug 31 01:23:48 at least here several resellers offer that Aug 31 01:23:48 DocScrutinizer: If you're referring to Pulster, I don't want to pay $127. Aug 31 01:24:04 I'd rather buy a new phone. Probably a G2 this time. Aug 31 01:24:15 Does anyone simply sell the screens? Aug 31 01:24:20 hmm, don't think there's a significantly cheaper way Aug 31 01:24:25 :( Aug 31 01:24:28 nope Aug 31 01:24:56 So where can I get a G2 for a good deal? Aug 31 01:28:26 Digital_Pioneer: ebay - also - even broken FR isn't quite valueless. If you want to get rid. :/ Aug 31 01:29:37 Well, I guess I'm looking to sell it. It's no good to me. Aug 31 01:32:46 I'm not that convinced it's a crack Aug 31 01:34:29 a crack is clearly noticeable, especially when device off Aug 31 01:35:08 also a crack usually very sensitive to mechanical pressure Aug 31 01:35:45 If it's not a scratch, what else would a line be? Anyway. Try the FPC thing. It's free. Aug 31 01:35:48 and a crack never moves Aug 31 01:36:27 'I note a curvy line along the left side of the screen (about 1.5 cm in) that the colors tend to blur around... Looks like something's broken,' - that's exactly what my eeepc is doing ATM. :/ Aug 31 01:36:35 * SpeedEvil sat on it. Aug 31 01:36:55 SpeedEvil: sync problem causing a stripe of other color at beginning of scanline Aug 31 01:37:51 Sure. I'd expect the data to be visible in some manner though. Even if unsynced - as a random blur Aug 31 01:38:12 if you can see it when device is off, then probably crack Aug 31 01:38:12 its been awhile Aug 31 01:38:42 not if the pixelclock is missing Aug 31 01:38:59 DocScrutinizer: in that case won't it just be white/black? Aug 31 01:39:25 (though I'm not saying reseating the FPC is a bad idea) Aug 31 01:39:35 DocScrutinizer: I see nothing when it's off. Aug 31 01:39:37 you never know what a dirty contact can do Aug 31 01:40:53 if you stick a small flashlight flush with the screen and straight over one end of the line, you should be able to see quite clearly if its cracked or not Aug 31 01:40:56 Though the colors go crazy around it when you press on or near it. Aug 31 01:42:42 that's not good Aug 31 01:43:04 Yeah. Aug 31 01:43:46 Hmm, and the line splits near the top, very cracklike. Aug 31 01:43:48 Heheh Aug 31 01:46:19 that's a crack then Aug 31 01:47:39 Well, I guess that's it then. The FR has been fun, but I don't think I'm going to do it again. :P Aug 31 01:48:02 perfect excuse to get an n900 Aug 31 01:48:04 :) Aug 31 01:48:12 ndnihil: And how much are those? :P Aug 31 01:48:24 mere pocket change Aug 31 01:48:39 if you happen to be loaded Aug 31 01:48:47 LOL Aug 31 01:49:29 I think I'll go with an Android phone this time. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Aug 31 02:59:57 2009
