**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Jun 18 02:59:57 2009 Jun 18 03:00:08 heh, it happens Jun 18 03:00:35 nebula: slick - what did it tell you ? Jun 18 03:01:01 seriously good stuff Jun 18 03:01:20 nothing to what i needed, but maybe it'll help someone else ;) Jun 18 03:01:36 i think i'm screwed, the only bitpool reference is inside a binary file :( Jun 18 03:02:12 :( Jun 18 03:02:46 what are you trying to do? Jun 18 03:03:06 set the bitpool value for a2dp Jun 18 03:03:14 its currently set too low Jun 18 03:03:17 so firewalls are all off and the pre is still refusing the connection when i run talk.py... any ideas ? Jun 18 03:03:19 it needs to be around 60 Jun 18 03:03:55 anyone know can i just reset lunaSysMgr to register new apps? Jun 18 03:04:10 yeah Jun 18 03:04:17 initctl stop lunasysmgr Jun 18 03:04:25 initctl start lunasysmgr Jun 18 03:04:26 but i can't be ssh in usb media mode? Jun 18 03:04:48 usb media mode turns off the radios, doesn't it ? Jun 18 03:04:49 nebula: you can simply do sudo start LunaSysMgr if i recall Jun 18 03:04:54 bpadalino: it must Jun 18 03:05:16 but i could sftp and ssh i bet Jun 18 03:06:31 bpadalino: this is driving me nuts. what linux dist you used? Jun 18 03:06:42 ubuntu server - it was just something laying around Jun 18 03:06:47 shinali, what are you getting as an error ? Jun 18 03:06:53 32 bit or 64? Jun 18 03:07:03 32 bit Jun 18 03:07:09 "No such file or directory" Jun 18 03:07:16 what is your command ? Jun 18 03:07:20 I can't seem to get grep or windows search to find where "soundClass" is defined Jun 18 03:07:24 pastie it ? Jun 18 03:07:29 ok Jun 18 03:08:27 aight, lets see if i get my skeleton app up Jun 18 03:09:16 sweet, there it is with pretty new icon and all Jun 18 03:10:19 bpadalino: http://webos.pastebin.com/d7b36a8f Jun 18 03:10:50 hi Jun 18 03:10:56 I just got my pre yesterday, love it Jun 18 03:11:05 heh, wtf .. i like it Jun 18 03:11:53 kinda nuts - i have no idea ... Jun 18 03:11:58 I'm curious if there is an SSH client yet Jun 18 03:12:09 there is Jun 18 03:12:14 there's no gui terminal app though Jun 18 03:12:34 so you have to be ssh'd in to be able to ssh out :) Jun 18 03:12:39 are there any faq pages about getting sdk access/running unsigned code/blah Jun 18 03:12:46 bpadalino: i'll just try the 32-bit ubuntu server Jun 18 03:12:52 i thought on the wiki someone got he web gui terminal working? Jun 18 03:12:53 ok Jun 18 03:13:12 furan: no need to worry about running unsigned code Jun 18 03:13:13 Opie: It is kinda wonky.. Jun 18 03:13:19 we don't know anything about SDK Jun 18 03:13:19 furan: i just wrote a hello world and it runs fine. basically did this http://forums.precentral.net/web-os-development/186473-how-modify-app-while-keeping-original.html Jun 18 03:13:25 opie-x: it's apparently useless Jun 18 03:13:36 anyone have an input on running talk.py when rooting a pre? i have no firewalls and admin privs but still getting error Jun 18 03:13:38 summatusmentis: gotcha, hadn't tried it but i saw it online Jun 18 03:14:33 aight, i have to install sftp i guess switching modes on the device is too much work Jun 18 03:14:48 I assume there's a brick wall between #webos chatter between folks w/ndas and #webos-internals Jun 18 03:15:08 Summ: I ran top and showed it to friends and said "Hey look! I got top running on my phone!" but that was the extent of its usefullnes. Jun 18 03:15:24 Lurking_Grue: heh, yeah Jun 18 03:15:41 Tilton53L basic linux use, good article for newbies Jun 18 03:15:52 bootleg: please talk to Filefly and Scratch59, who are working on better instructions for novaproxy Jun 18 03:16:23 rwhitby: fyi, we both got it working, and i think that other guy did too Jun 18 03:16:26 furan: NDA talk is not allowed in either of those two channels Jun 18 03:16:28 make sure the novacomd communication service is running if you just installed it you may need to restart or start it manually Jun 18 03:17:53 Tilton53: nice wiki page, thanks. Jun 18 03:17:59 http://predev.wikidot.com/basic-linux-use Jun 18 03:18:08 I got tried of noobs being like Jun 18 03:18:15 "I have never used linux before" Jun 18 03:18:17 -.- Jun 18 03:18:31 it needs more crap but I am feeling lazy tonight Jun 18 03:19:02 and you handled the situation in the best way possble, creating a wiki page to offload us. nice job. Jun 18 03:19:30 >.> I used to help out a bunch of game wikis Jun 18 03:19:35 and they had the same problem Jun 18 03:19:45 "Dude they don't even know the basic commands" Jun 18 03:19:46 >.> Jun 18 03:19:56 make a fucking wiki page with the basic commands Jun 18 03:20:02 * Tilton53 facepalms Jun 18 03:20:07 facePalms Jun 18 03:20:08 Tilton53: now we just need a wiki page for all those emoticons you keep using ;-) Jun 18 03:20:22 ^_^ is a good emoticon Jun 18 03:20:23 but Jun 18 03:20:24 Yeah I have like thousands Jun 18 03:20:28 ^_^_^ is better (siamese twins) Jun 18 03:20:36 ^o^_^ they talk like this Jun 18 03:20:43 ^_^o^ and they talk like this Jun 18 03:20:46 http://stats.tiltshellz.org/?chan=archein Jun 18 03:20:55 look at the stats on those emotion icons Jun 18 03:21:17 :P is a little one sided Jun 18 03:21:40 I'm w/ rwhitby, put it on a wiki page :) Jun 18 03:21:44 ok guys, let's not drown out the internals discussion with emoticons and discussion about emoticons :-) Jun 18 03:21:49 XD Jun 18 03:21:54 heh Jun 18 03:21:57 so, did anyone start a hardware page? Jun 18 03:22:05 I doubt it Jun 18 03:22:09 hehehe Jun 18 03:22:12 does lsmod command work for the pre? Jun 18 03:22:19 hardware? what hardware? :-P Jun 18 03:22:28 my broken hardware with the cracked screen! Jun 18 03:22:37 if one were to use dropbear instead of OpenSSH what "advanced" features would they miss? Jun 18 03:22:43 http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/prebd13.jpg is the first diagram for it, except that I suspect one of the three memory blocks should be connected to the MSM chip instead of the OMAP. Jun 18 03:22:49 Like none Ajaxify Jun 18 03:22:52 >.> it's a phone Jun 18 03:22:58 anyone down with talking about how the toolkit works? Jun 18 03:23:01 Ajaxify: authentication agent forwarding (agent, not port) Jun 18 03:23:25 aka nothing you'd be using on a phone Jun 18 03:23:27 :p Jun 18 03:23:38 all I have seen so far is info on how webos does html/js stuff, which is neat, but I am curious about the native stuff, curious about the window manager, and curious about the graphics stack. Jun 18 03:23:46 rwhitby I thought we were just gonna recommanded sudo and dropbear Jun 18 03:24:11 Tilton53: sudo we've done, I haven't seen hard comparative memory usage data on dropbear and openssh yet. Jun 18 03:24:16 http://www.freedesktop.org http://webkit.org Jun 18 03:24:24 Alright. Thanks. Jun 18 03:24:28 Dropbear uses on average about 30% less memory Jun 18 03:24:48 yeah dropbear is great for memory-constrained/portables Jun 18 03:24:53 Tilton53: I'm after real figures from the Pre. I know what it does on other devices (like the NSLU2) Jun 18 03:25:03 ah Jun 18 03:25:24 i.e. how many less cards are you gonna be able to open if you use openssh instead of dropbear? Jun 18 03:25:24 an sshd isn't going to use very much memory Jun 18 03:25:29 well you could just have everyone paste their "ps uax" into a pastebin Jun 18 03:25:30 Wow! Busy room. Jun 18 03:25:33 it isn't that big of a deal Jun 18 03:25:42 if that answer is less than 1, then there's no need to use dropbear. Jun 18 03:25:44 i like how i'm spending my night on configuration and none on actual DEVELOPMENT Jun 18 03:25:48 * ShinAli sobs Jun 18 03:26:03 huh, so palm pre uses webkit! Jun 18 03:26:13 yes Jun 18 03:26:13 that's neat. Jun 18 03:26:15 as it should Jun 18 03:26:40 shinali, :( Jun 18 03:26:43 webkit is actually the backend to the whole luna framework Jun 18 03:26:48 @rwhitby what does OpenSSH allow that dropbear doesn't? (I'm totally unused to these, so I'm simply asking, not being confrontational) Jun 18 03:26:54 or frontend Jun 18 03:27:00 its an end to something Jun 18 03:27:01 am I staring at X then? Jun 18 03:27:12 there's no X Jun 18 03:27:46 ShinAli, its the magic in between Jun 18 03:27:47 lol Jun 18 03:27:50 drawing is done by the libPiranha library Jun 18 03:27:52 jiv: authentication agent forwarding Jun 18 03:28:02 (which I use a lot) Jun 18 03:28:14 so a mapped frame buffer + libpiranha? Jun 18 03:28:17 (but not on a Pre, since I don't have a Pre yet) Jun 18 03:28:17 and that library seems to interact with the linux framebuffer directly but don't quote me on that Jun 18 03:28:36 furan: yeah i think so Jun 18 03:28:43 is there any gl support? Jun 18 03:29:00 I'm sure video at least is taking some fast path before hitting the framebuffer Jun 18 03:29:06 jiv: OpenSSH allows outbound key authentication. I don't believe dropbear can do that Jun 18 03:29:07 i've only seen stuff like 2D contexts Jun 18 03:29:41 JackieRipper: dropbear can do that, it just can't forward such authentication from an agent earlier in the path Jun 18 03:29:57 rwhitby: Seems convenient and like a good reason. 256MB is cramped, but the difference is probably be worth it if you even might need it. Jun 18 03:30:03 furan: you're welcome to help take a look at it Jun 18 03:30:06 hmmm. I copied my key locally, and it wasn't prompting for a passphrase Jun 18 03:30:11 but i didn't see any GL stuff Jun 18 03:30:29 for 99% of users, dropbear is good enough. But that's only cause 99% of users aren't protecting their private ssh keys well enough by using agent forwarding. Jun 18 03:30:39 though i know opengl es drivers exist for omap Jun 18 03:30:51 ryanworl> an sshd isn't going to use very much memory < yes it's not to big of a deal but once everybody is standarized then the dev's can work on some kind of a fail 2 ban script for the pre Jun 18 03:31:08 furan: I really think it's just page flipping based on what I've seen so far Jun 18 03:31:16 Or else we are going to have 100k people with rooted pre's all hoping their password is strong enough to keep them safe. Jun 18 03:31:16 if your private ssh key is on any machine to which you do not have complete physical and network security, then you should be using agent forwarding instead. Jun 18 03:31:19 has anyone used nm to peek through the libraries? Jun 18 03:31:30 thats what i've been using Jun 18 03:32:02 I'm just starting to poke around Jun 18 03:32:15 i'm not so good at looking linux ARM code though Jun 18 03:32:20 ooh, it's omap2430? that's opengl + video decoding anyway Jun 18 03:32:22 3430. Jun 18 03:32:29 yeh Jun 18 03:32:43 http://predev.wikidot.com/a2dp Jun 18 03:32:50 but I don't think there are any openGL libraries on the pre Jun 18 03:33:05 beagleboard has openGL libraries so i know they exist Jun 18 03:33:12 rwhitby: thanks, i now know even more about hardware :-D Jun 18 03:33:19 nebula: nice one Jun 18 03:33:50 I had thought that the wave bar was 3d rendered but then I realized it's just a surface with alpha that is moving across the screen as you select icons (even though it looks like it's warping) Jun 18 03:34:09 ShinAli: what kind of kernel driver? Jun 18 03:34:21 Exstatica: When you find a list of the commands let me know Jun 18 03:34:40 furan: you sound like you've got some graphics experience ... Jun 18 03:34:43 tmzt: what do you mean? Jun 18 03:35:13 i'm not well versed on linux arch Jun 18 03:35:54 rwhitby: yes Jun 18 03:35:58 on beagle Jun 18 03:36:27 anyone got a sec to help w/ rooting the phone ? Jun 18 03:36:36 i feel retarded :\ Jun 18 03:36:36 bootleg where are you stuck? Jun 18 03:36:40 talk.py Jun 18 03:36:43 so, should i find two processes of /opt/sbin/dropbear running on the pre after standard install? Jun 18 03:36:43 firewalls down Jun 18 03:36:46 pything all installed Jun 18 03:36:49 python* Jun 18 03:36:53 and i get a connection error Jun 18 03:36:58 device refused connection Jun 18 03:36:59 what version fo windows are you using? Jun 18 03:37:03 win 7 Jun 18 03:37:08 thought it was admin prob Jun 18 03:37:10 >.> Jun 18 03:37:12 but cant seem to make it work Jun 18 03:37:14 Win 7 doesn't work Jun 18 03:37:15 -.- Jun 18 03:37:18 no crap lol Jun 18 03:37:19 tmzt: SGX Jun 18 03:37:25 XP is is the only one I have seen that works. Jun 18 03:37:46 aight ill just pop another hdd into my laptop and install a quick xp install Jun 18 03:37:50 thx tilton Jun 18 03:37:57 you could just boot from a linux livecd.. Jun 18 03:38:07 this too ^ Jun 18 03:38:28 ive tried linux twice.. im a complete noob.. but i think im gonna try that idea.. Jun 18 03:38:32 thx Jun 18 03:38:41 has a date been announced for the sdk going public yet? Jun 18 03:38:48 well actually furan Jun 18 03:38:58 You need the correct drivers to talk to the pre Jun 18 03:38:59 when duke nukem forever comes out Jun 18 03:39:05 and linux doesn't have them :/ Jun 18 03:39:05 lil Jun 18 03:39:21 yeah, novacomd needs to be implemented for linux .. Jun 18 03:39:23 furan: nope, but i wouldn't expect anything more than HTML/JS/CSS docs and an emulator Jun 18 03:39:27 they have it internal to palm Jun 18 03:39:31 unless you can use the mac drivers Jun 18 03:39:32 >.> Jun 18 03:39:33 it's very likely it doesn't work on win7 because, like xp64 and vista64, you're running a 64 bit release and you have no driver for your pre. Jun 18 03:39:35 but didn't release them Jun 18 03:39:44 Anybody try porting the mac instructions to linux? Jun 18 03:39:49 it is really going to suck if they don't allow native apps. Jun 18 03:39:58 Duke Nukem Forever is coming out for the Phantom console first. Jun 18 03:40:01 (e.g. for more interesting games) Jun 18 03:40:09 but that depends on how the display is setup anyway Jun 18 03:40:21 Which is going to be powered by a perpetual motion machine ;) Jun 18 03:40:39 furan: the only apps with anything native would be video player and Classic, and they both use browser plugins to run the native code Jun 18 03:41:09 i think that kind of arch would be okay for a game design (menus/etc use webkit, game renders in a plugin) Jun 18 03:41:10 it is possible but probably won't be officially supported to anyone other than "partners" to palm for a while Jun 18 03:41:37 I added "This procedure is know to not work on Windows 7 or Windows Vista, so it's best just to stick with XP." to the rooting directions Jun 18 03:41:38 -.- Jun 18 03:41:51 it works in vista Jun 18 03:41:54 Tilton53: it's more likely that it doesn't work on 64 bit releases since there is no driver.. Jun 18 03:42:01 if I were you I'd get more specific that way Jun 18 03:42:08 otherwise the guy on xp64 is going to complain next :) Jun 18 03:42:09 furan: it works on x64 as well Jun 18 03:42:14 bootleg Jun 18 03:42:16 Works on win 7 if you happen to have vmware running xp... Thats what I did. Jun 18 03:42:17 ya Jun 18 03:42:22 just not windows 7 Jun 18 03:42:25 what version of win 7 do you have? Jun 18 03:42:27 interesting Jun 18 03:42:29 X64 Jun 18 03:42:29 a plugin is just a library being passed a rendering context, if the grahpics system is good enough it should be fine Jun 18 03:42:30 32 or 64? Jun 18 03:42:30 in either 32 bit or 64 bit Jun 18 03:42:38 x64 Jun 18 03:42:55 tmzt: there will be doublebuffer perf complaints straightaway :) Jun 18 03:43:14 it has that Jun 18 03:43:48 virtual pc work ? Jun 18 03:43:58 instead of vmware ? Jun 18 03:44:05 vmware is free Jun 18 03:44:06 o.o Jun 18 03:44:10 just get vmware player Jun 18 03:44:11 umm Jun 18 03:44:28 and use http://www.easyvmx.com/ Jun 18 03:44:32 bootleg Jun 18 03:44:33 ^ Jun 18 03:44:35 kk Jun 18 03:44:36 tmzt: I mean by hitting a doublebuffer you halve your update speed. Jun 18 03:44:40 bootleg: if it allows you to pass off the usb device to the VM it should work Jun 18 03:44:41 * Tilton53 senses his next write up Jun 18 03:44:47 vmware player for dummies Jun 18 03:44:48 XD Jun 18 03:44:52 ill make sure Jun 18 03:44:59 furan: oh yeah, ok Jun 18 03:45:04 virtualpc has better usb support in my experience Jun 18 03:45:06 (if the doublebuffer is not page flipping but doing an intermittent blit) Jun 18 03:45:09 anywho Jun 18 03:45:11 time to play Jun 18 03:45:11 oops, virtualbox I meant Jun 18 03:45:21 Vmware needed focus when I pluged the phone in... Set it in storage mode first to see if it shows up as a drive. Jun 18 03:45:22 I have never used virtual pc Jun 18 03:45:30 it would be good if a firmware update enabled full 3d but we have no idea what is missing for that Jun 18 03:45:31 At least as a sanity test. Jun 18 03:45:39 in the current kernel Jun 18 03:45:41 lol Lurking_Grue Jun 18 03:45:50 ill try virtual box and set it up as a hdd Jun 18 03:45:54 ill give that a shot first Jun 18 03:46:08 bootleg: I'll be interesting in the result Jun 18 03:46:14 unless virtual box is only x86... Jun 18 03:46:32 It runs on x64. Jun 18 03:46:39 Has anybody rooted on Vista? Jun 18 03:46:42 kk Jun 18 03:46:44 or has it only been XP? Jun 18 03:47:27 furan: it uses an ioctl to switch between framebuffers Jun 18 03:47:42 interesting Jun 18 03:47:51 is this stuff cataloged anywhere? Jun 18 03:48:13 Tilton53: Yes I am on vista Jun 18 03:48:21 And you got it rooted in Vista? Jun 18 03:48:23 here and the wiki I guess Jun 18 03:48:28 yep Jun 18 03:48:34 use the novaproxy Jun 18 03:48:51 k Jun 18 03:49:04 http://predev.wikidot.com/rooting Jun 18 03:49:12 at the bottom of the windows section Jun 18 03:50:02 well good Jun 18 03:50:10 I won't need to drag out my xp backup laptop Jun 18 03:50:12 :D Jun 18 03:50:41 so i was playing around with novacom .. and on my mac i was telnetted in to port 6970 ... Jun 18 03:50:45 * AgentSmith keeps an XP vmware around just for such situations Jun 18 03:50:49 it shows the rx/tx traffic of novacomd .. Jun 18 03:51:00 turns out if you turn the pre off with the usb cable plugged in .. Jun 18 03:51:05 you automatically go in to bootie mode Jun 18 03:51:15 oh Jun 18 03:51:18 mmmm i like butts Jun 18 03:51:24 which is the same mode you get into when you hold the volume up key + plug in usb Jun 18 03:51:35 pregame, exactly - then we use trenchcoat to flash bootie Jun 18 03:51:35 even though that's used for charging? Jun 18 03:51:44 tmzt: apparently so .. Jun 18 03:51:49 mmmmm booty flashing Jun 18 03:51:53 girls gone wild Jun 18 03:51:58 there is an MTU field .. which is 16384 for castle-linux mode ... Jun 18 03:52:03 and 4096 for castle-bootie mode Jun 18 03:52:08 it's almost as if palm went out of their way to make the pre easy to break into Jun 18 03:52:23 there is also a heartbeat that is sent out - every second with a 10 second timeout normally in castle-linux Jun 18 03:52:24 It's such a change from the normal 17 layers of secuirty on phones Jun 18 03:52:40 and 250 ms with a 1 second timeout in bootie mode Jun 18 03:53:14 bpadalino: that telnet trace port only works on mac's right? Jun 18 03:53:31 i don't have a windows box, but someone on windows should try the same thing Jun 18 03:53:42 doesnt work with novaproxy it seems Jun 18 03:53:53 pregame, with novacomd running on windows.. Jun 18 03:53:57 just see if telnet port 6970 is open Jun 18 03:54:05 and if so, just telnet to it - no novaproxy required Jun 18 03:54:13 oh i thought u meant the phone Jun 18 03:54:19 bpadalino: sent from where? Jun 18 03:54:23 FYI everyone, i've started writing the intro to mojo apps wiki page (locally)... i will be posting it on the wiki sometime tomorrow hopefully. Jun 18 03:54:41 tmzt, sent between the phone and the computer ... Jun 18 03:54:51 evanpro, awesome! Jun 18 03:54:53 bpadalino: telnet to localhost? Jun 18 03:54:55 evanpro, how are your apps ?

Jun 18 04:26:09 please Jun 18 04:26:26 I guess there are other pmux protocols though, those input/ouput numbers sound like endpoints/dlcis or whatever Jun 18 04:26:44 so I'm guessing at least qc diag is possible Jun 18 04:27:57 rwhitby: teaches me about not listening to you Jun 18 04:28:04 headless linux is much easier to deal with Jun 18 04:28:35 JB: np Jun 18 04:28:51 headless is the way to go Jun 18 04:29:35 bpadalino: you set yours up for NAT or bridge?

Jun 18 04:29:49 tmzt: bpadalino documented the novacomd protocol Jun 18 04:30:05 yeh i'm using bridge, NAT was being a little weird on me Jun 18 04:30:14 i should set up a static ip on this thing Jun 18 04:30:26 yeah, there are still questions about pmux since i have only done tty mode Jun 18 04:32:27 and i've only done castle-linux - nothing with castle-bootie Jun 18 04:32:51 next i think i want to tackle file get, file send and execute command Jun 18 04:32:51 wow Jun 18 04:33:00 just one day of using the pre and the iphone interface feels clunky now Jun 18 04:33:09 I just did 2 gestures that it doesn't know anything about Jun 18 04:33:16 furan, do you find yourself swiping up to try to get to card view ? Jun 18 04:33:20 YES Jun 18 04:33:21 i do that with my touch now Jun 18 04:33:26 that's exactly the first thing I did Jun 18 04:33:29 "music - hrm .. i want email .. .swipe" Jun 18 04:33:32 oh, whoops :( Jun 18 04:34:27 i have 2 terminal windows open now and i dunno what to do with them Jun 18 04:34:42 for anyone curious I got an image of my screen crack http://imgur.com/mNIK9.jpg Jun 18 04:34:55 AgentSmith: sorry to see that :( Jun 18 04:35:04 That sucks Jun 18 04:35:22 the worst part about the phone is the tight integration makes it nearly impossible to re-work ... Jun 18 04:35:47 :\ Jun 18 04:36:17 ouch Jun 18 04:36:29 i got the service plan Jun 18 04:36:36 completely broke the touchscreen surface and 2 keyboard keys Jun 18 04:36:41 LCD still works though Jun 18 04:36:43 AgentSmith, did you drop it? Jun 18 04:36:46 anyone have a recommendation on what telnet to use? Jun 18 04:36:50 I got mine last thursday, fine so far. Jun 18 04:36:52 putty is good Jun 18 04:37:01 AgentSmith: tight pants ? Jun 18 04:37:36 no, I was cleaning the screen off and rubbed a spot with my thumb, not even hard enough to make the LCD change color (like laptop screens, not the visual effect) and it went *click* Jun 18 04:37:47 then the touch surface stopped working and the keyboard keys failed Jun 18 04:38:05 i've seen a few references to cracks starting at the button and running up the screen from pressure around the button. Jun 18 04:38:09 i've pressed much harder on my iphone / blackberry etc. screens for a pressure reference of sorts without any issues Jun 18 04:38:18 yeah that's what i was reading too Jun 18 04:38:21 so for host name i put my pre's IP and then what do i enter for port? Jun 18 04:38:22 what keys stopped working? Jun 18 04:38:35 C and I believe X Jun 18 04:38:38 or V Jun 18 04:38:44 i know C died, one of the ones next to C went with it Jun 18 04:38:53 on the qwerty? Jun 18 04:38:56 ueaj Jun 18 04:38:57 yeah* Jun 18 04:39:00 that makes no sense Jun 18 04:39:31 is touchscreen on usb? Jun 18 04:39:44 no, it would probably be on serial Jun 18 04:39:45 we couldn't find it in input yesterday Jun 18 04:39:52 serial? Jun 18 04:39:53 i2c bus i'd guess Jun 18 04:40:03 Hmm Jun 18 04:40:08 there is a way to get the touchscreen dump Jun 18 04:40:10 WebOS doctor isn't even detecting my pre now. Jun 18 04:40:14 figure out which file handle it opens Jun 18 04:40:14 has anybody used lsusb? Jun 18 04:41:01 with lsof? Jun 18 04:41:14 that or strace the dump Jun 18 04:41:18 and see what it opens Jun 18 04:41:33 I think they just discussed tor on tv but not by name Jun 18 04:41:35 funny Jun 18 04:41:48 ha Jun 18 04:42:04 it was called proxy Jun 18 04:43:09 ooh i take it back, after rebooting the keyboard works again, touchscreen is still completely dead though Jun 18 04:43:16 trying to figure out if i can wipe it from the command line Jun 18 04:43:40 wipe your pre ? Jun 18 04:43:41 now usenet, wow ok Jun 18 04:43:54 remove all my perseonal info off it before i take it back to the store Jun 18 04:44:01 ah Jun 18 04:44:15 trenchcoat has a --wipeout option, but not sure what all that does Jun 18 04:44:42 since that's related to flash I wouldn't suggest it Jun 18 04:45:11 agentsmith, try it and tell us what it does Jun 18 04:45:23 heh Jun 18 04:45:25 heh Jun 18 04:45:27 be the guinea pig Jun 18 04:45:34 * Lurking_Grue gets popcorn. Jun 18 04:46:55 at least this somewhat related to this channel, the value in twitter.com is the open api and user community not the top down website Jun 18 04:47:34 could anyone help me with the telnet step of rooting my pre? Jun 18 04:48:04 woodenrims what isn't working? Jun 18 04:48:23 well i've never used telnet before Jun 18 04:48:31 i believe i have my pre's ip address Jun 18 04:48:38 but it can't seem to connect Jun 18 04:48:43 download "putty" (do a google search) Jun 18 04:48:50 i have puttytel.exe Jun 18 04:48:54 ah ok Jun 18 04:48:54 i am attempting to use that Jun 18 04:49:32 Did talk.py run OK? Jun 18 04:49:34 that works but you can use putty itself as well Jun 18 04:49:37 yes Jun 18 04:49:42 talk.py ran great Jun 18 04:50:03 can you run dmesg from the prompt? Jun 18 04:50:10 After I ran talk.py, sometimes I had to keep trying for 30 seconds or so, not sure why. And it always has to be hooked to USB Jun 18 04:50:31 m_burns, yes Jun 18 04:50:46 so you just turn the on for the ip address Jun 18 04:50:51 to figure out the ip address Jun 18 04:50:56 other than that it doesn't matter Jun 18 04:50:58 bpadalino: my dev environment is finally setup and working Jun 18 04:51:05 you are communicating to the pre over usb using telnet? Jun 18 04:51:13 that took alot longer than it should Jun 18 04:51:24 nice. Jun 18 04:51:44 woodenrims, no, you have to leav wi-fi on. I think my problem was, without usb, it was going to sleep Jun 18 04:51:45 who is? Jun 18 04:52:07 woodenrims, my touchstone doesn't work when I'm telnetting/sshing in Jun 18 04:52:29 you are still connecting over wifi Jun 18 04:53:00 ok Jun 18 04:53:07 so in putty Jun 18 04:53:11 for hostname i put in my pre's ip Jun 18 04:53:13 correct? Jun 18 04:53:25 yes, and make sure you select "telnet" Jun 18 04:53:29 right Jun 18 04:53:34 and then just select open Jun 18 04:53:45 that is all there is to it Jun 18 04:54:10 is this after telnetd is running? Jun 18 04:54:29 He said talk.py ran successfully Jun 18 04:54:35 talk.py does the steps that used to be done through telnet to novacomd proxy? Jun 18 04:54:44 ok Jun 18 04:54:52 so you use the wifi ip Jun 18 04:55:18 yes Jun 18 04:55:46 i also tried running novaproxy Jun 18 04:55:51 so i could avoid the wifi Jun 18 04:55:58 but it just sits at listening on port Jun 18 04:59:53 has anyone tried to run samba on the pre Jun 18 05:00:22 so you can export a mount and edit your /var/usr/palm/applications/com.your.app files? Jun 18 05:09:43 pEEf: ping Jun 18 05:10:07 ok.. wish me luck. I just set it to reboot after making what I think are the edits to enable a file picker for alert and notification sounds Jun 18 05:10:09 instead of trying to flash it from the command line to wipe it i just deleted the user databases - hoping they don't get recreated off the "cloud" upon reboot Jun 18 05:10:59 So seperate sounds for email and sms and then I think i can do the same for charging sounds Jun 18 05:12:35 hemna: yeah, sftp is another choice Jun 18 05:12:42 Has anyone confirmed whether you can complete the webOS Doctor reflash with a cracked screen? Jun 18 05:13:31 how many people are cracking their screens Jun 18 05:14:04 my screen is perfect still Jun 18 05:14:07 * hemna crosses fingers Jun 18 05:20:40 hahahaa Jun 18 05:20:45 mine is perfect too. Jun 18 05:20:55 How are people cracking the screens Jun 18 05:21:03 Noob question: What dir does the Pre look in for music? Nothing obvious under /media/internal Jun 18 05:21:08 no freaking clue.. and that pic thats going around the net.. seriously.. WTF Jun 18 05:21:13 did you see those greasy hands? Jun 18 05:21:39 what pic? lol Jun 18 05:21:47 hehe i was just talking about my crack over in #webos Jun 18 05:21:55 anybody know what dir the pre uses for notifications? Jun 18 05:21:59 Stik: there are articles floating around about the "pres scrathced screen" Jun 18 05:22:15 http://imgur.com/mNIK9.jpg <- mine cracked Jun 18 05:22:27 anyone else having problems with the wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs08q1armel/cross/stable/ipkg-opt_0.99.163-10_arm.ipk url? Jun 18 05:22:35 How on earth you do that Jun 18 05:22:42 i touched it with my thumb Jun 18 05:22:43 Here is info in the wikki about how to change system notification Jun 18 05:22:48 methinks i got a defective one Jun 18 05:22:49 (There)... Jun 18 05:23:04 when i run it through Puttytel it comes up bad address Jun 18 05:23:13 I press my thumb on mine to open it Jun 18 05:23:38 me too. Jun 18 05:23:43 but when i go to the website on my PC it works just fine Jun 18 05:23:44 its what the manual says to do.. haha Jun 18 05:23:50 yah i know Jun 18 05:23:57 is there something i am missing? Jun 18 05:23:59 lol read manual and crack screen Jun 18 05:24:04 haha Jun 18 05:24:28 Palm definately has some QC issues with this phone Jun 18 05:24:43 sweet Jun 18 05:24:48 i got firebug lite running in my pre app Jun 18 05:25:08 I use both thumbs to open mine, no crack yet Jun 18 05:25:09 how do i screen cap? Jun 18 05:25:15 Stik: yes.. :( Jun 18 05:25:26 several people have cracked the screen just like you have and in the same place. i suspect your best bet it talking to palm, but maybe a sprint store manager could act. Jun 18 05:25:43 Only issue I have with mine is the loose slider which is tolerable... Jun 18 05:25:56 and they really need to come up with a Coding Standard.. all their devs have a different practice. :( Jun 18 05:26:00 opie-x: hey I think novacom has something like firebug Jun 18 05:26:01 its making them look amatuer Jun 18 05:26:08 Afraid if I take it in I will get something worse lol Jun 18 05:26:11 but we haven't found it yet Jun 18 05:26:23 tmzt: really? Jun 18 05:26:30 tmzt: that would be beautiful. Jun 18 05:26:40 yeah, it doesn't work the greatest. It needs css tweaks from the default styling, but it's totally functional Jun 18 05:26:43 I think there is another app that is part of the emulator that does the debugging. Jun 18 05:26:56 dreadchicken: i tried to get support from palm - palm said talk to sprint Jun 18 05:27:03 what is it? Jun 18 05:27:03 i contacted sprint, they said talk to the sprint store Jun 18 05:27:04 and on and on Jun 18 05:27:15 does anyone have any information on why the wget command to download the ipkg would fail? Jun 18 05:27:22 datafirm: it's guess based on tty:// I can't see why they would use a url for the console Jun 18 05:27:25 btw, anyone know if pandora is a pure mojo app? ie can you really do that much directly in mojo or does it have a native component? Jun 18 05:27:37 print out everything you can find that supports your position and go see a sprint store. Jun 18 05:27:47 tmzt: there are quite a few console.log calls in the code. Jun 18 05:27:59 does the touchscreen still work with the crack? Jun 18 05:28:12 no Stik it's dead as a doornail Jun 18 05:28:16 i couldn't even get to the wipe command Jun 18 05:28:22 LCD works fine though Jun 18 05:28:26 datafirm: I mean root console Jun 18 05:28:26 but you can't interact with the UI Jun 18 05:28:30 man I'd go beat the sprint rep over the head with it Jun 18 05:28:38 yes me too Jun 18 05:28:44 they're getting a mouthful tomorrow, wizkd is coming Jun 18 05:28:58 AgentSmith: shat do you mean lcd works fine? Jun 18 05:29:12 datafirm: i don't think pandora has any specific native components, none that i've seen. But it does access some of the native services on the pre. Like the audio controls Jun 18 05:29:20 I'll stand by and act as a concerned customer, and pull my pre out and ask if it can happen to mine Jun 18 05:29:23 yeah the LCD works fine, but the touchscreen doesn't register finger presses Jun 18 05:29:31 I already decided if apple decides to block the palm I am gonna cut my itouch with a saw into quarters and send it back to apple with a note saying goto hell... Jun 18 05:29:37 I didn't want to take a pic with the display on, crack showed up better with it off Jun 18 05:29:39 and usb? Jun 18 05:29:46 haha Stik Jun 18 05:30:00 lol wizkd Jun 18 05:30:35 we should form a flash mob at Sprint store Jun 18 05:30:54 Tell any customers in there not to touch the touchscreen and show them why lol Jun 18 05:31:35 haha Jun 18 05:31:46 And what does that say about the touchstone? Don't touch that either Jun 18 05:31:50 My first one was a dud Jun 18 05:32:01 Just sayin. I still think the Pre is cool Jun 18 05:32:16 yeah and the store said something like 1 in 20 touchstones were defective Jun 18 05:32:32 ouch Jun 18 05:32:36 still think they pushed it out way too early Jun 18 05:32:38 I think Palm will address this reasonably Jun 18 05:32:56 I agree, but yeah, when release should be beta, that's hard. Jun 18 05:33:54 wont give it up though... love the phone... Jun 18 05:34:14 agree, gotta hand it to palm for innovating Jun 18 05:34:16 Same here. The foundation is strong. Jun 18 05:34:18 yeah i'm really on the fence, my experience has been bad since day one - i have a hard time justifying keeping it, not even because of Palm, sprint has been horrible to deal with Jun 18 05:34:26 i got ~20 more days to make a decision and pay ETF with ATT. Jun 18 05:34:32 the handset itself i dig, but having to go through sprintfor issues, oi Jun 18 05:34:49 it's like pulling narwhal teeth Jun 18 05:34:54 sprint in seattle has been very easy to deal with.. they swapped out my phone and told me theyd do it again. Jun 18 05:35:00 Never had to deal with sprint on that level Jun 18 05:35:20 att/apple did things the right way with iphone, with apple supporting them in their stores. of course, palm doesn't have a support network like apple does Jun 18 05:35:30 ok... try number 2 on activating alert and notification picker from the sounds and alerts menu Jun 18 05:35:51 This discussion should probably move to #webos Jun 18 05:35:56 wget: bad address 'ipkg.nslu2-linux.org' Jun 18 05:36:00 anyone know why i get that? Jun 18 05:36:07 they are totally different phones though.. I was just so sick of my iphones.. had the same experience for 2 years! Jun 18 05:36:22 woodenrims: its probaby your build. Jun 18 05:36:30 whats the full url Jun 18 05:36:33 woodenrims: ^^ Jun 18 05:36:42 http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs08q1armel/cross/stable/ipkg-opt_0.99.163-10_arm.ipk Jun 18 05:36:52 i can download the file with that URL to my PC Jun 18 05:37:09 but it will not work using the wget through puttytel Jun 18 05:37:13 ahh. me too Jun 18 05:37:20 datafirm: bad experience or you just want something new? Jun 18 05:37:29 tmzt: I want something new. Jun 18 05:37:42 ok Jun 18 05:38:06 tmzt: the experience is great. easy.. no learning curve and they got people sucked in.. I just craved for more and I cannot stand that blue modal noticifation!!!!!!!!!!! Jun 18 05:38:17 haha Jun 18 05:38:30 gotta admit.. i REALLY miss my virtual keyboard. Jun 18 05:38:32 :'( Jun 18 05:38:37 i was so fast on that thing. Jun 18 05:38:55 and you dont have to pay attention to what you type.. it just corrects everything. Jun 18 05:39:04 you can type belligerently Jun 18 05:39:05 I like that the pre is smaller, even though it is thicker Jun 18 05:39:14 iphone is like a huge slab in comparison Jun 18 05:39:19 yeah.. i love that form factor too! Jun 18 05:39:27 ok Jun 18 05:39:32 my iphone feels huge when i pick it up now. Jun 18 05:39:35 but.. Jun 18 05:39:43 that screen is great compared to the Pre Jun 18 05:39:56 Pre's is too small to read normal webpages without rotating. Jun 18 05:40:06 i used to never put the iphone in landscape mode Jun 18 05:40:18 oh Jun 18 05:40:24 same resolution Jun 18 05:40:25 wear some polarized glassed and look at the pre's screen. Jun 18 05:40:26 ick Jun 18 05:40:33 3.2 vs 3.5 Jun 18 05:40:34 I'd prefer the keyboard slid out the side Jun 18 05:40:37 so its blown up. Jun 18 05:40:59 you can't use it in landscape with sunglasses? Jun 18 05:41:15 I guess that's true of all tfts though Jun 18 05:41:25 haha.. no just look at it with polarized glasses on. Jun 18 05:41:31 tmzt: not the iphone.. Jun 18 05:41:36 yeah same resolution but smaller Jun 18 05:41:43 hate to say it.. they did a really good job and used high quality parts. Jun 18 05:41:48 i agree there, less display real estate for reading without a microscope on eyes Jun 18 05:41:50 how did the avoid that? glass? Jun 18 05:42:24 maybe.. probably Jun 18 05:42:33 I think its the plastic that makes all those rainbows Jun 18 05:42:49 I heart webOS dashboard though. Jun 18 05:42:56 one of the reasons I needed to switch, Jun 18 05:43:45 wizkd: agreed, this stuff is better in #webos, so we can work out why woodenrims can't get DNS ... Jun 18 05:43:55 did palm actually design this handset? the treos were HTC and then some other manufacturer for the treo pro Jun 18 05:44:02 yeah Jun 18 05:45:10 woodenrims: so you can wget the file from your PC, but not from your Pre. Can you ping the site from your Pre? Jun 18 05:46:28 I think webos has the potential to change things in much the way iPhone did, synergy looks great. I was certainly interested in android to a point but it did not really have much that was new Jun 18 05:47:00 rwhitby: I've had all kinds of problems with busybox wget Jun 18 05:47:23 it's better to install wget Jun 18 05:48:20 what version of busybox is on the pre? Jun 18 05:49:55 tmzt: simple wgets should work ok ... Jun 18 05:55:47 .. ok attempt #3 on enabling notification and alert picking from the sounds and alert program Jun 18 05:59:30 after rooting the system and rebooting, should one leave dev mode on or can you turn it off and still ssh and do mods? Jun 18 05:59:39 I am guessing the latter Jun 18 06:00:28 bpadalino: I've been following your precomd development -- very nice Jun 18 06:00:43 any idea why the packets are often repeated? Jun 18 06:00:46 im going nuts here Jun 18 06:00:53 where do you configure the proxy settings? Jun 18 06:01:01 on our browser, or pre browser?

Jun 18 06:07:15 drugs are bad mmkay Jun 18 06:07:17 none of these packages will appear in the front end Jun 18 06:07:24 or am I mistaken Jun 18 06:07:32 ok I got the UI to show files selected but they aren't associated to the events yet. so I guess I'm halfway there Jun 18 06:07:35 yeah remote Jun 18 06:11:23 bpaladino: a novacomd replacement? nice Jun 18 06:12:30 basically reverse engineering the protocol? Jun 18 06:14:46 I suggested porting Asterisk to the phone and then when you came home you could have it automaticly route your calls to a home phone system over the wifi Jun 18 06:14:53 to the pre* Jun 18 06:15:08 uhm Jun 18 06:15:12 harder said than done Jun 18 06:15:14 er, easier Jun 18 06:15:14 asterisk seems a bit heavy Jun 18 06:15:23 Yeah a i know Jun 18 06:15:27 but it'd be awesome Jun 18 06:15:28 Anyone got an idea why a Pre wouldn't have valid DNS when mounted by a Mac?

Jun 18 08:04:34 this has me a little nervous that my pre is sending stuff to palm and able to take pictures by it self Jun 18 08:04:34 yeah Jun 18 08:04:42 but you have to root the pre first with talk.py Jun 18 08:04:52 i was successful with that part i thin Jun 18 08:04:57 just have been able to make a connection yet Jun 18 08:05:07 that's what rdxd does? Jun 18 08:05:10 somehow i think my static ip i tried to assign it with my router isnt working Jun 18 08:05:16 yeah Jun 18 08:05:30 if you look at the uploadd log it talks about which uploads were successful and which werent Jun 18 08:05:51 where is there an upload log ? Jun 18 08:05:59 So I've got to step #14 Take a look at the script. Notice that it automatically modifies the firewalls rules to enable incoming SSH on port 222 over WiFI (interface eth0) connections only. Jun 18 08:06:01 seigex, what do you mean it's taking pics and sending them to sprint Jun 18 08:06:15 ok tiv Jun 18 08:06:16 not sure of the command line to edit this file Jun 18 08:06:22 not sure if its sending them.. but it took a pic and has it in that directory i said Jun 18 08:06:23 there's nothing to edit Jun 18 08:06:29 ok Jun 18 08:06:31 tiv: vi or install nano via ipkg Jun 18 08:06:34 you sure you didn't accidentally take a pic? Jun 18 08:06:44 its in a hwtest (hardware test) directory Jun 18 08:06:46 hooray for nano :p Jun 18 08:06:48 no i didn't take the pic Jun 18 08:06:52 ok let me look Jun 18 08:06:57 var log you say Jun 18 08:07:02 that pic was taken at the factory, seigex Jun 18 08:07:13 timestamp should put it way before you got the phone Jun 18 08:07:17 yup Jun 18 08:07:20 I got the same dirs Jun 18 08:07:21 good point.. the date is 0531 Jun 18 08:07:21 ted Jun 18 08:07:23 pic Jun 18 08:07:31 MFT_P5PE068950E2_20090608_015732.log Jun 18 08:07:33 and a jpg Jun 18 08:07:35 from Jun7 Jun 18 08:07:40 which is before i got the phone Jun 18 08:07:41 but that doesn't explain the rdxd directory sending quite a bit of data to palm :) Jun 18 08:08:03 like what? Jun 18 08:08:14 if you look at the log, it's a battery of tests Jun 18 08:08:20 it probably snapped a pic to test the system Jun 18 08:08:35 dmesg syslog fsck minicore overview sysinfo Jun 18 08:08:38 all .txt files Jun 18 08:08:56 if any of it is identifying, you can argue with palm. otherwise it's probably something you already said yes to in the license agreement Jun 18 08:09:05 its uploading them continuosly if you run a tail -f messages Jun 18 08:09:36 i'm sure it is.. but doesn't make me happy with it it'd be nice to let you opt-in / opt-out of sending anonymous stats like most companies do Jun 18 08:09:38 command for closing a file after using vi to edit? Jun 18 08:09:49 hit esc then : then q! Jun 18 08:09:56 or :wq to save the file Jun 18 08:10:04 :q to quit, :w to write, :wq to write + quit, :q! to quit discarding all changes Jun 18 08:10:17 that last thing I see in /var/log/messages is power msgs about the battery charging Jun 18 08:10:19 from this morning Jun 18 08:10:40 mine's trying to upload the latest logs and then deletes them after Jun 18 08:10:50 your pre's a snitch Jun 18 08:10:52 burn it Jun 18 08:11:09 yeah i guess it is Jun 18 08:11:39 is there a way to find the phones ip on the actual phone ?

Jun 18 08:12:42 seigex, if you are really concerned, run a cron task to delete these logs every minute Jun 18 08:12:56 retry, obviously.. thats not my point :) Jun 18 08:12:56 looks like they load up in pending Jun 18 08:13:11 paste us one of the message lines Jun 18 08:13:12 did you open an archive yet?

Jun 18 08:47:49 yes Jun 18 08:48:01 the fact that it says /var/opt is odd Jun 18 08:48:09 try double quotes just for the hell of it Jun 18 08:48:17 yes Jun 18 08:48:31 I think you used backquotes Jun 18 08:48:44 i think i did.. lol Jun 18 08:49:04 yea that worked.

Jun 18 08:50:12 so im assuming the syntax was okay Jun 18 08:50:14 rawdr, he tried double quotes instead of single Jun 18 08:50:18 but we think he was using backticks Jun 18 08:50:19 oh. double quotes Jun 18 08:50:32 i was using back ticks as he said Jun 18 08:50:40 tmzt, thanks for trying to help troubleshoot Jun 18 08:50:45 i appreciate that Jun 18 08:50:54 even though reboot was all it took Jun 18 08:50:57 still disconcerting Jun 18 08:51:07 well he nailed it Jun 18 08:51:10 if I hadn't had ssh and wifi going...i'd have been SCREWED Jun 18 08:51:15 I like to find the root cause Jun 18 08:51:29 yeah but who knows if it was usb Jun 18 08:51:42 did lsusb install?

Jun 18 09:14:09 What to do if I can't ssh after the first initial reboot. Jun 18 09:14:16 it can't? Jun 18 09:14:23 I'm not excatly sure where to go back to to make sure it stays enabled Jun 18 09:14:30 tiv: redo the novacom stuff Jun 18 09:14:49 tmzt, neg it's not an option listed in mount man page Jun 18 09:15:00 for vfat Jun 18 09:15:16 alright screw this...the easy solution is to set up a keypair for root and rsync that way :D Jun 18 09:15:24 just wanted to say thanks again guys... appreciate the help... got as far as dropbear installed and running so far and learned loads Jun 18 09:15:35 yes Jun 18 09:15:46 and use openssh, makes it easier Jun 18 09:15:48 oh man use openssh Jun 18 09:15:51 hehe Jun 18 09:15:54 lol Jun 18 09:16:06 the wiki said dropbear used less pre resources Jun 18 09:16:07 :\ Jun 18 09:16:07 dropbear is fine but openssh has a lot more options and features Jun 18 09:16:17 the wiki does not lie Jun 18 09:16:24 will u notice the pre slowing down with openssh on it ? Jun 18 09:16:27 but ssh gives you rsync capability and scp Jun 18 09:16:33 naw Jun 18 09:16:46 if i dont know what rsync and scp are at the moment and I gonna miss out ? lol Jun 18 09:16:47 slightly Jun 18 09:16:56 so just go through all the steps over again? Jun 18 09:17:07 seesh here we go Jun 18 09:17:19 you can install ssh side by side iwth dropbear Jun 18 09:17:21 on a different port Jun 18 09:17:24 and then remove dropbear Jun 18 09:17:30 after you ssh in Jun 18 09:17:37 i cant remove dropbear first ? Jun 18 09:17:39 shouldn't be so hard Jun 18 09:17:43 well if you do you have to telnet Jun 18 09:17:47 that's more effort Jun 18 09:17:51 I like sargun's chroot debian setup. Did he do a writeup of that? Jun 18 09:17:54 im telnet atm Jun 18 09:17:55 then you gotta put it in dev mode again Jun 18 09:18:01 still in dev mode Jun 18 09:18:04 oh you are still telnet Jun 18 09:18:05 ok Jun 18 09:18:06 ill see what I can do Jun 18 09:18:09 then sure just remove it first Jun 18 09:18:12 wiki seems to have all the stuff Jun 18 09:18:26 joshua, chroot of an entire debian distro? Jun 18 09:18:43 joshua, I did. Jun 18 09:18:51 so the modem is not using AT? Jun 18 09:20:28 geeze is it just a command to uninstall dropbear ? Jun 18 09:20:43 after you kill the daemon ? Jun 18 09:20:54 no Jun 18 09:21:01 what command? Jun 18 09:21:10 uh oh.. got myself into trouble already Jun 18 09:21:15 just install openssh and it will take the symlinks Jun 18 09:21:31 i dont have to uninstall ? Jun 18 09:21:46 what do the instructions say? Jun 18 09:21:55 dont see instructions for removing :\ Jun 18 09:21:57 yeah, that's client only, sorry Jun 18 09:22:47 ipkg-opt remove dropbear should do it Jun 18 09:22:51 does ipkg-opt have a purge? Jun 18 09:22:52 kk Jun 18 09:23:35 guess it doesn't Jun 18 09:23:46 is there an event.d scrcipt for dropbear? Jun 18 09:23:50 you'll want to remove that manually Jun 18 09:24:00 yea there is Jun 18 09:24:04 that's the important part Jun 18 09:24:19 how do you remove that part ? Jun 18 09:24:47 rm Jun 18 09:24:53 cd /etc/event.d/ Jun 18 09:24:53 wget http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/raw/master/etc/event.d/optware-openssh Jun 18 09:24:58 oh hey my phone did it again Jun 18 09:25:02 tmzt Jun 18 09:25:06 so rm optware-openssh ? Jun 18 09:25:08 you wanna debug more? Jun 18 09:25:24 cat /dev/input/event* Jun 18 09:25:32 oh is that the same event.d script that openssh uses? Jun 18 09:25:36 well Jun 18 09:25:42 in my case its dropbear at the end not openssh Jun 18 09:25:47 so optware-dropbear Jun 18 09:25:51 yeah remove that Jun 18 09:25:54 and get the ssh one Jun 18 09:25:57 kk Jun 18 09:30:58 retry: did that output anything? Jun 18 09:31:20 what? Jun 18 09:31:36 cat /dev/input/event* Jun 18 09:31:36 oh sorry I didn't realize you were addressing me with that Jun 18 09:31:44 thought you were helping bootleg with his event.d script Jun 18 09:31:44 press everything Jun 18 09:31:50 I rebooted already :) Jun 18 09:31:56 I think I can break it anytime though Jun 18 09:32:02 got openssh going.. thx Jun 18 09:32:15 how? Jun 18 09:34:32 ok this is my hypothesis Jun 18 09:34:40 remount the root fs rw Jun 18 09:34:51 then do mount -a Jun 18 09:35:05 eventually after that it'll crash Jun 18 09:35:13 i'm not basing this on much mind you Jun 18 09:35:19 paste fstab here Jun 18 09:35:30 how long? Jun 18 09:35:37 it's pretty much stock after rooting directions Jun 18 09:35:40 except I added noatime Jun 18 09:35:57 I need to see it Jun 18 09:36:25 I think a daemon is dying Jun 18 09:36:29 # mount -a Jun 18 09:36:29 mount: mounting rootfs on / failed: No such file or directory Jun 18 09:37:03 the only diff from stock fstab is the var/opt line Jun 18 09:37:07 with noatime Jun 18 09:37:12 /var/opt /opt bind defaults,noatime,bind 0 0 Jun 18 09:37:37 yeah, but the other fs's are mounted as well Jun 18 09:37:55 we need to see which if any is causing it Jun 18 09:38:15 noatime is useless with bind anyway Jun 18 09:38:20 is it? Jun 18 09:38:30 I think so Jun 18 09:38:39 can't hurt to put it in just to be safe Jun 18 09:38:40 the fs driver is below vfs Jun 18 09:38:44 OR CAN IT Jun 18 09:39:01 I don't think so Jun 18 09:39:31 oh yeah it's already dead again Jun 18 09:39:38 didn't even have to mount the fs rw Jun 18 09:39:43 either mount -a toasted it Jun 18 09:39:44 OR Jun 18 09:39:51 let's look at dmesg Jun 18 09:40:33 let's look at syslog Jun 18 09:40:39 both actually Jun 18 09:40:52 cool :) Jun 18 09:41:52 2009-06-17T23:29:00.652467Z [61596] castle user.debug hidd: HidPluginStopReaderThread: HidTouchpane Jun 18 09:41:52 l: Attempted to stop the reader thread after it has already been stopped Jun 18 09:42:00 ok something caused everything to crash pretty much Jun 18 09:42:05 and it's all in messages Jun 18 09:42:38 yes Jun 18 09:43:00 what I don't get is why it locks input devices Jun 18 09:43:06 makes no sense Jun 18 09:43:07 ok Jun 18 09:43:14 comment out the dev line Jun 18 09:43:23 both of them Jun 18 09:43:31 reboot Jun 18 09:43:33 mount -a Jun 18 09:43:39 check messages Jun 18 09:44:49 2009-06-18T09:38:46.048675Z [708] castle user.err hidd: HiddEventIpc.c:439 : _SendEvent: No such file or directory [Errors since last msg: 0] Jun 18 09:44:49 this repeats a few times at the end of the log Jun 18 09:44:56 hold on I'm going to save this log somewhere first Jun 18 09:45:14 the other hunch I'm wondering about is battery charge reaching 100% while plugged in Jun 18 09:45:22 also might be triggering this Jun 18 09:45:53 ps aux PIPE grep hidd Jun 18 09:46:01 strace -p thatpid Jun 18 09:47:08 let me pastebin this Jun 18 09:47:36 http://webos.pastebin.com/m54b3e343 Jun 18 09:48:11 ok now I'm rebooting Jun 18 09:49:18 oh hidd is bluetooth Jun 18 09:49:21 I dont even have that enabled Jun 18 09:50:32 god the log timestamps are all messed up Jun 18 09:50:36 the java log thinks it's 1970 Jun 18 09:52:54 it's not bluetooth I think Jun 18 09:53:04 HidTouchpane Jun 18 09:55:40 2009-06-18T09:55:04.322662Z [370] castle user.warning powerd: POWERD-SUSPEND: IdleCheck can't sleep because because an activity is active: Jun 18 09:55:44 great message Jun 18 09:55:47 activity is active Jun 18 09:55:59 http://linux.die.net/man/1/hidd Jun 18 09:56:05 hidd = bluetooth Jun 18 09:56:29 but idk Jun 18 09:56:39 not arguing with you because I think I'm right Jun 18 09:56:45 just don't want to jump to conclusions Jun 18 09:57:50 find -name 'HiddEventIpc.c' Jun 18 09:57:52 gives no results Jun 18 09:58:05 what is the path to hidd Jun 18 09:58:15 it wouldn't that's in the source code Jun 18 09:58:29 normally yes Jun 18 09:58:57 # find -name 'hidd*' Jun 18 09:58:57 ./usr/bin/hidd Jun 18 09:58:57 ./usr/lib/ipkg/info/hidd.md5sums Jun 18 09:58:57 ./usr/lib/ipkg/info/hidd.list Jun 18 09:58:57 ./usr/lib/ipkg/info/hidd.control Jun 18 09:58:57 ./var/run/hidd.pid Jun 18 09:58:59 ./etc/hidd Jun 18 09:59:01 ./etc/event.d/hidd Jun 18 09:59:03 ./tmp/hidd Jun 18 09:59:31 can anyone help w/ editing my background.

Jun 18 10:10:49 mount -a did not cause hidd to die Jun 18 10:10:52 then I uncommented Jun 18 10:10:55 mount -a again Jun 18 10:10:56 please paste that line Jun 18 10:10:58 and same pattern of behavior Jun 18 10:11:02 which line Jun 18 10:11:28 the line for tmp?

Jun 18 10:18:23 why don't you break YOURS :p Jun 18 10:18:53 I don't have one Jun 18 10:19:10 no I don't want the fstab line Jun 18 10:19:23 I want the output of mount when input works Jun 18 10:20:06 '/tmp isn't mounted? Jun 18 10:20:16 normally Jun 18 10:20:37 the breakage is disappearing inodes, probably unix sockets Jun 18 10:21:01 tmp is mounted normally Jun 18 10:22:16 what do you mean Jun 18 10:22:30 after a reboot, what does df -h /tmp say? Jun 18 10:22:38 oh it's mounted alright Jun 18 10:22:43 it's being used by a lot of systems Jun 18 10:22:57 yes, but is it an fs or part of / Jun 18 10:23:19 tmpfs is stored in virtual memory, its not a real partition Jun 18 10:23:20 * oc80z back Jun 18 10:23:49 fstab tells it how large to make it Jun 18 10:23:56 output from commands helps more Jun 18 10:24:14 it tells us what's really happening Jun 18 10:24:22 fstab is read by mount Jun 18 10:24:31 not the kernel Jun 18 10:24:40 the heck are you trying to figure out Jun 18 10:26:07 shit I messed up my sshd Jun 18 10:26:10 now i have to telnet in Jun 18 10:26:17 what's breaking input Jun 18 10:26:27 and why the input devices are locked Jun 18 10:26:36 did you try checking the permissions on the devices Jun 18 10:26:58 joshua, basically I was messing about with /var/opt Jun 18 10:27:00 we no the tmpfs line in fstab is the problem Jun 18 10:27:01 i wanted to add noatime Jun 18 10:27:08 so I did that Jun 18 10:27:10 and then did mount -a Jun 18 10:27:22 thinking that'd just remount the partition with noatime Jun 18 10:27:24 but when I did it Jun 18 10:27:29 it caused hidd to crash Jun 18 10:27:32 as noted in dmesg Jun 18 10:27:38 not dmesg Jun 18 10:27:39 and that caused all the interfaces to stop working of course Jun 18 10:27:43 dmesg is kernel Jun 18 10:27:47 hrm yeah thats not how you wanna mount things. heh Jun 18 10:27:50 sorry /var/log/messages Jun 18 10:28:10 but his change didn't break it Jun 18 10:28:20 like on deb, you can mount -a and it'll just mount what is in fstab that isn't mounted Jun 18 10:28:22 that's what we are trying to dinf out Jun 18 10:28:24 right it wasn't the change Jun 18 10:28:27 is gadgetfs in fstab, i don't have shell into my phone at the moment Jun 18 10:28:28 yes Jun 18 10:28:30 that just led to the discovery Jun 18 10:28:40 dont think so joshua Jun 18 10:28:52 joshua: it should be handled by udev Jun 18 10:28:55 do I have to do all the rooting steps to gain telnet access? Jun 18 10:29:06 or is it simpler now that I"ve already rooted once? Jun 18 10:29:14 did you lose access? Jun 18 10:29:32 the simplest answer to that is there is no "rooting" Jun 18 10:29:34 i Jun 18 10:29:42 i've only gone in through novaterm myself Jun 18 10:29:53 tmzt, i messed up my ssh conf Jun 18 10:29:55 never set up ssh on mine Jun 18 10:29:59 and lost access Jun 18 10:30:19 you don't have to do all the stepds, just the telnetd ones Jun 18 10:30:28 nothing permenant Jun 18 10:30:54 joshua: are you on osx? Jun 18 10:31:01 yeah Jun 18 10:31:03 oh crap Jun 18 10:31:10 now the rooter script isn't working :/ Jun 18 10:31:17 why Jun 18 10:32:13 wonder how many people that chat in here actually have a pre Jun 18 10:32:42 weird how many backseat hackers there were the first night it got rooted. heh Jun 18 10:33:09 some in au Jun 18 10:33:57 Yeah I guess cause of my weird hours there are fewer people Jun 18 10:34:20 sup hertzi Jun 18 10:35:21 where are you? Jun 18 10:35:23 ok nm i got it working and ssh is back Jun 18 10:35:33 good Jun 18 10:35:38 I'm in hawaii Jun 18 10:35:43 oh cool Jun 18 10:35:51 df -h /tmp Jun 18 10:36:01 wait hold on Jun 18 10:36:05 I want to get out of dev mode Jun 18 10:36:14 i gotta enable making it visible...I am sick of typing konami Jun 18 10:36:16 doesn't matter Jun 18 10:36:48 http://predev.wikidot.com/pre-hash-codes Jun 18 10:36:56 anybody know how to make use of these hash codes? Jun 18 10:37:02 I'd like to see my GPS location for example Jun 18 10:37:12 type in dialer Jun 18 10:39:06 OH Jun 18 10:39:13 that is what those are Jun 18 10:39:22 ok now it seems obvious Jun 18 10:39:41 somehow since this whole wiki is about internals, I thought it was something more involved Jun 18 10:40:43 no Jun 18 10:40:43 tmzt, Jun 18 10:40:44 # df -h /tmp Jun 18 10:40:44 Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on Jun 18 10:40:44 tmpfs 64.0M 172.0k 63.8M 0% /tmp Jun 18 10:40:51 ok Jun 18 10:41:06 losf -p $(pidof hidd) Jun 18 10:41:08 lsof Jun 18 10:41:15 install if needed Jun 18 10:41:39 retry what do you mean more involved Jun 18 10:41:41 tmp has a bunch of junk in it, and there are daemons running to support stuff like input devices I think Jun 18 10:42:05 yes Jun 18 10:42:06 exactly Jun 18 10:42:10 hidd is that daemon Jun 18 10:42:15 and it has all these socket file in tmp Jun 18 10:42:18 yes Jun 18 10:42:33 and the disappear when mount -a is run Jun 18 10:42:39 the question is why Jun 18 10:42:54 probably because the contents go poof when its remounted Jun 18 10:42:55 ? Jun 18 10:43:04 yeah that might be it Jun 18 10:43:09 tmpfs isn't an actual filesystem, its created at mount time Jun 18 10:43:14 although restarting hidd with initctl did not fix it Jun 18 10:43:42 you unmount tmpfs and the files are gone Jun 18 10:43:53 joshua: yeah, but why is it being mount over itself Jun 18 10:44:05 I just answered my question Jun 18 10:44:18 two things Jun 18 10:44:35 first paste the lsof greeped by tmp Jun 18 10:44:38 for hidd Jun 18 10:44:51 here if it's short Jun 18 10:47:01 # lsof -p 1047 |grep tmp Jun 18 10:47:01 hidd 1047 root 6u unix 0xcc46b8c0 0t0 1880 /var/tmp/hidd/KeypadCmdSocket Jun 18 10:47:01 hidd 1047 root 7u unix 0xcc46b720 0t0 1883 /var/tmp/hidd/TouchpanelCmdSocket Jun 18 10:47:01 hidd 1047 root 8u unix 0xcc46b580 0t0 1886 /var/tmp/hidd/AccelerometerCmdSocket Jun 18 10:47:01 hidd 1047 root 9u unix 0xcc46b3e0 0t0 1889 /var/tmp/hidd/ProximityCmdSocket Jun 18 10:47:02 hidd 1047 root 10u unix 0xcc46b240 0t0 1892 /var/tmp/hidd/LightCmdSocket Jun 18 10:47:04 hidd 1047 root 11u unix 0xcc46b0a0 0t0 1894 /var/tmp/hidd/AvrcpCmdSocket Jun 18 10:47:38 it's very confusing with all these bound mount points Jun 18 10:48:06 /var/tmp is a symlink to /tmp Jun 18 10:48:21 i guess not bound at mount Jun 18 10:48:57 ok Jun 18 10:50:14 you were only mounting /var/opt though not /var Jun 18 10:50:18 well apparently you can mount -o remount tmpfs and it will let you resize it on the fly Jun 18 10:50:26 so i don't know what mount -a is doing exactly Jun 18 10:50:30 uncomment tmpfs in fstab Jun 18 10:50:46 mount -av or strace mount -a your choise Jun 18 10:51:03 just don't use mount -a, that would be my take. heh Jun 18 10:51:37 tmpfs is good to have Jun 18 10:51:39 it's in a script apparently Jun 18 10:51:42 yes Jun 18 10:51:56 tmpfs doesn't really have a size though Jun 18 10:52:30 has whatever size its mounted with Jun 18 10:53:04 no, that's the limit Jun 18 10:53:11 size=64M,mode=1777 can change that to make it bigger Jun 18 10:53:15 it has whatever size is used Jun 18 10:54:40 in use Jun 18 10:55:18 i bet they have a daemon increasing it as needed to reserve the other space for virtual memory Jun 18 10:55:43 for classic? Jun 18 10:55:45 starts at 64M from fstab and goes from there Jun 18 10:55:57 for whatever apps put stuff in /tmp Jun 18 10:55:59 you are not listening though Jun 18 10:56:10 tmpfs is just a cache Jun 18 10:56:27 it is allocated by the kernel when files are created Jun 18 10:56:40 and deallocated when they are removed Jun 18 10:57:08 like /dev/shm Jun 18 10:57:10 the files aren't on the hard drive, but they exist in virtual memory till its unmounted Jun 18 10:57:18 like /dev/shm Jun 18 10:57:20 you can read/write to it like any other directory Jun 18 10:57:34 and it starts at whatever size its mounted at, which is 64M in /etc/fstab Jun 18 10:58:13 how much ram is free? how much total? Jun 18 10:58:27 mount -av output was identical to mount -a output Jun 18 10:58:35 root@castle:/tmp# mount -av Jun 18 10:58:35 mount: mounting rootfs on / failed: No such file or directory Jun 18 10:58:56 everything is tmp is still there Jun 18 10:59:00 but HIDD crashed as usual Jun 18 10:59:04 in* Jun 18 10:59:36 still there? Jun 18 10:59:42 and strace? Jun 18 10:59:49 what about strace Jun 18 11:00:27 strace mount -a Jun 18 11:00:38 see if it really calls mount on tmpfs Jun 18 11:01:00 mount("tmpfs", "/tmp", "tmpfs", MS_VERBOSE, "size=64M,mode=1777") = 0 Jun 18 11:01:01 stat64("tmpfs", 0xbebd0758) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Jun 18 11:01:15 ok Jun 18 11:01:17 that i think is your answer Jun 18 11:01:18 it does Jun 18 11:01:19 weird though Jun 18 11:01:21 yes Jun 18 11:01:24 cause it's there Jun 18 11:01:25 hah Jun 18 11:01:27 still mounted too Jun 18 11:01:34 anyway I am gonna reboot again Jun 18 11:01:39 why is it in fstab anyway? Jun 18 11:02:02 well I think it has to mount initially at boot Jun 18 11:02:41 alright I'm too tired now to do any more investigating Jun 18 11:02:46 we know the cause Jun 18 11:02:55 so that's good enough for me Jun 18 11:03:08 i just want this damn nascar app off my phone Jun 18 11:04:13 what kernel version is the pre running? Jun 18 11:04:42 http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0402.3/0238.html found this post, something about /etc/mtab not matching /proc/mounts Jun 18 11:04:57 and if /proc is also in fstab I wonder if that would screw with it when youd o mount -a Jun 18 11:05:06 I dunno, I'm tired. heh Jun 18 11:06:46 no Jun 18 11:07:02 that's common anyway Jun 18 11:07:08 if mount -n is used Jun 18 11:09:39 i've run mount -a on live linux systems before Jun 18 11:09:44 and it doesn't typically cause problems Jun 18 11:09:52 it usually will not mount stuff that is already mounted Jun 18 11:10:00 and only mount anything that got unmounted Jun 18 11:10:05 yeah but have you run it on a cell phone or pda. heh Jun 18 11:10:25 theres a lot goin on with this thing, especially with the usb modes Jun 18 11:10:32 I just think it's busybox Jun 18 11:10:38 yeah Jun 18 11:10:50 I am no expert on busybox Jun 18 11:10:52 gain from what thing? Jun 18 11:10:57 type which mount to see if its a busybox internal or command Jun 18 11:11:19 the only other busybox I've looked around on before is dd-wrt/tomato for my router Jun 18 11:11:37 i am off the phone and switched off wifi Jun 18 11:11:43 so tomorrow...

Jun 18 11:58:29 yes, ssh from pre to a server Jun 18 11:59:03 Currently through the app catalog no but im sure you can get it to work via webshell and a ssh client from linux Jun 18 11:59:17 I was told that the ssh client from palmOS works in classic Jun 18 11:59:33 I guess that in the future it will be one available Jun 18 11:59:51 pre still doesn't arrive here (spain) and I'm waiting :-(((( Jun 18 12:00:28 but I'm interested in using it for common uses like connect to some servers via ssh Jun 18 12:02:23 is there any rummor about pre distribution in another countries?

Jun 18 12:47:56 did you pull the entire code off the device to edit it Jun 18 12:48:14 i take it thats wahts everyone doing to track changes? Jun 18 12:48:22 yea i have tars of almost everything Jun 18 12:48:27 app wise Jun 18 12:48:53 \usr\Palm\com.palm.app.messaging\app\controllers\chatview-assistant.js Jun 18 12:49:07 line 173 Jun 18 12:49:11 1730** Jun 18 12:49:55 I dunno why we used wikidot Jun 18 12:50:07 because we publish Jun 18 12:50:10 we should have just used own domain and wiki software Jun 18 12:50:30 Ugly looking Jun 18 12:50:32 wikidot may have lawyers Jun 18 12:50:34 I know Jun 18 12:50:40 and locked cabinets Jun 18 12:50:45 we need drupal or something ;) Jun 18 12:50:56 wikidot having lawyers lol Jun 18 12:51:16 We should just get http://www.mediawiki.org/ and host it offshore Jun 18 12:51:27 but oh well Jun 18 12:51:31 softlayer.com Jun 18 12:51:56 they run the devsite Jun 18 12:51:56 what about softlayer Jun 18 12:51:57 ? Jun 18 12:52:03 and they are on freenode too Jun 18 12:52:09 #wikidot Jun 18 12:52:23 i know they run the dev site Jun 18 12:52:33 i guess Jun 18 12:52:37 they should have better themes Jun 18 12:52:43 lol Jun 18 12:53:01 its a -very- open site Jun 18 12:53:37 that cool i guess , guess itsbecause im not use to them Jun 18 12:54:34 bbl man Jun 18 12:56:37 ok ttyl Jun 18 13:07:27 Is it possible for someone to figure out certain unreleased APIs from a rooted Pre? Jun 18 13:08:51 maybe Jun 18 13:08:57 c apis? Jun 18 13:13:40 Well, I mentioned something about adding photo integration to Pre twitter clients and one of the developers said it wasn't part of the API yet. But since Email has no problems attaching photos to emails I'm wondering if it's just unreleased. Jun 18 13:24:28 Anyone free to answer a question about Root Access / Telnet? Jun 18 13:25:32 CreoBrian: what's up? Jun 18 13:27:15 Yesterday I followed the instructions on the Wiki to gain root access. I was successful. I then followed the directions to setup optware and openssh. This was also successful. At the very end of the process, Jun 18 13:27:41 it told me to re-mount the file system as read only. I obediently complied. Then it told me to reboot my phone. Jun 18 13:27:47 Right Jun 18 13:27:55 I did so. When it came up, I no longer had telnet or SSH access Jun 18 13:28:04 Is the wifi on? Jun 18 13:28:06 its almost as though I was back to square zero Jun 18 13:28:08 yes Jun 18 13:29:01 and you're sure that a) you made the script to run openssh/dropbear for you, Jun 18 13:29:12 and b) you're trying to ssh to port 222? Jun 18 13:29:14 yes. It was all working until I rebooted my phone. Jun 18 13:29:37 I'd still like to be able to telnet as well. Jun 18 13:29:42 right, that's why I'm wondering if it's not running the daemon Jun 18 13:30:01 possible. But shouldn't I at least be able to telnet in? Jun 18 13:30:24 That talk.py script opens the firewall Jun 18 13:30:32 so you're allowed to telnet Jun 18 13:30:55 If you don't have ssh working, once you reboot, telnet won't work until you do talk.py (or novaproxy) again Jun 18 13:31:16 Right.. its making sense now.. no point in setting up SSH if you can always just telnet in.. Jun 18 13:31:28 morning Jun 18 13:31:43 CreoBrian: right Jun 18 13:31:46 hey Rick_ Jun 18 13:32:59 OK. So then regarding the daemon not running.. I noticed while perusing the optware-openssh setup script, to enable EVDO access, the default options mentioned somehting about NOT running as a daemon.. Jun 18 13:33:20 It raised an eyebrow, but the instructions said nothing about removing this option from what I could tell Jun 18 13:33:25 maybe that was the culprit? Jun 18 13:33:55 Is there a reason you're using openssh and not dropbear? Jun 18 13:34:02 They both work, but dropbear is a bit simpler Jun 18 13:34:12 I have experience with openssh and zero with dropbear... better the devil you know Jun 18 13:34:23 Okay Jun 18 13:34:42 "know" may be the wrong word.. ;) Jun 18 13:34:51 "have heard of" Jun 18 13:35:39 yeah, I've used openssh quite a bit but I found dropbear to be much simpler Jun 18 13:37:11 So.. when I ran "initctl start optware-openssh" it used the "optware-openssh" script that I modified. Can I just re-run that command and take out the "don't start the daemon" option? Jun 18 13:37:18 or is that different? Jun 18 13:37:31 Hey im back Jun 18 13:37:49 Right here is where I start to risk giving answers that might screw up your phone, so I'm gonna leave this for someone else :P Jun 18 13:38:00 What was the questin Jun 18 13:38:01 ? Jun 18 13:38:50 I enabled root access on Pre yesterday, Jun 18 13:39:00 Ok Jun 18 13:39:04 and ran through the Optware setup guide on wiki, Jun 18 13:39:18 and everything was spiffy! but when I restarted my phone, no more SSH access Jun 18 13:39:32 We suspect the daemon didn't start Jun 18 13:39:39 Made sure u had the iptables commands in there Jun 18 13:39:40 ? Jun 18 13:40:02 I followed the guide 100%, and everything was working 100%. I was very careful. :) Jun 18 13:40:20 (working, until I rebooted phone i mean) Jun 18 13:40:53 Same thing happen to me i havent looked into it yet Jun 18 13:41:01 what interface are you trying to ssh into? what port? Jun 18 13:41:03 connect usb and get telnet going again Jun 18 13:41:07 and see is it running Jun 18 13:41:23 openssh, 222 Jun 18 13:41:41 what network interface are you trying to connect to Jun 18 13:41:48 eth0? ppp0? Jun 18 13:41:54 wireless? evdo? Jun 18 13:41:56 oh. ppp0 for evdo. Jun 18 13:42:01 oh Jun 18 13:42:04 iptables Jun 18 13:42:05 are set Jun 18 13:42:08 only for eth0 Jun 18 13:42:11 unless you change them Jun 18 13:42:12 :-D Jun 18 13:42:15 I promise it was working Jun 18 13:42:16 :) Jun 18 13:42:20 over wifi Jun 18 13:42:20 ? Jun 18 13:42:22 or evdo Jun 18 13:42:23 ? Jun 18 13:42:29 I SSH'd to the ppp0 address Jun 18 13:42:34 and was in and happy Jun 18 13:42:39 til I rebooted. Jun 18 13:42:40 did your ppp0 change Jun 18 13:42:40 lol Jun 18 13:42:44 ^ Jun 18 13:42:45 it tends to change often Jun 18 13:42:49 um. Jun 18 13:42:55 cmyip.com Jun 18 13:42:56 it Jun 18 13:43:02 um. Jun 18 13:43:10 :) Jun 18 13:43:15 in the phone's browser Jun 18 13:43:18 check your ip Jun 18 13:43:27 with wifi off, i guess Jun 18 13:43:28 Opps i should have been more specific Jun 18 13:43:29 lol Jun 18 13:43:59 how do i check the browser ip? i can get the wifi ip but obviously that doesnt help here heh Jun 18 13:44:07 you can get the EVDO IP using ##debug# i am pretty sure Jun 18 13:44:16 shut off wifi, load www.whatsmyip.org Jun 18 13:44:24 it will show you the ip Jun 18 13:45:29 Debug gives me the evdo subnet but not ip. good point nebula. Jun 18 13:45:44 @CreoBrian Jun 18 13:45:47 turn off wifi Jun 18 13:45:52 open web on the phone Jun 18 13:45:59 go to cmyip.com or whatsmyip.org Jun 18 13:46:03 it will give u the ip Jun 18 13:46:04 brb Jun 18 13:46:13 *nod* am doing. Jun 18 13:47:17 CreoBrian, so in debug when it says "Data session Curr. IP Addr" - that's NOT the EVDO IP address ? Jun 18 13:47:31 it absolutely is the evdo ip address Jun 18 13:48:06 rumors and hearsay Jun 18 13:48:27 but unless there's some massive reason to do so, you're FAR better off going in through wifi, since the evdo is often laggy, and the ip changes rather a lot Jun 18 13:49:02 or, you can use novacom and go in over the USB, but wifi is really really simpler. Jun 18 13:49:44 so I've turned wifi back on, and I'm trying to SSH into the wifi IP Jun 18 13:51:02 (using putty) -- connecting is timing out still Jun 18 13:52:42 Ok back Jun 18 13:52:56 @CreoBrian telnet in Jun 18 13:53:03 and do iptables -L Jun 18 13:53:09 CreoBrian, is it plugged in via usb ? Jun 18 13:53:11 and pastebin what it give you Jun 18 13:53:18 CreoBrian, if not - is the screen turned ON when you are trying ? Jun 18 13:53:57 Actually yeah. I see whats happening. The screen turns off after a few seconds and when it does, the WiFi checks out Jun 18 13:54:18 LOLLL Jun 18 13:54:25 right - if the phone is not in use (eg, playing music or some other activity) - the radios basically all turn off and it goes into a deep sleep mode Jun 18 13:54:27 yea you either have to play music or something Jun 18 13:54:44 play music, or plug it in over usb - or charge it in some fashion (touchstone works too i believe) Jun 18 13:54:48 yea and then the phone starts up all the daemons again Jun 18 13:54:51 haha.. play music to keep the phone alive.. i like it Jun 18 13:54:57 but yeah charging makes sense Jun 18 13:55:13 someone should put that on the wiki as a NOTE: Jun 18 13:55:18 if you are receiving timeouts, make sure ... Jun 18 13:55:25 lol Jun 18 13:55:28 time to edit Jun 18 13:55:28 Make sure you play Queen - Keep Yourself Alive Jun 18 13:55:32 it works best Jun 18 13:55:35 serious :) that'd be nice for us less-initiated folk Jun 18 13:55:43 Ok ill edit it now Jun 18 13:55:45 one second Jun 18 13:56:15 filefly, i hear when the forced updated go out - i hear Europe's "The Final Countdown" plays Jun 18 13:56:23 Indeed Jun 18 13:56:26 "The music of Queen has a reassuring effect on your wifi connection" Jun 18 13:56:26 but it's just rumors and hearsay Jun 18 13:56:31 :P Jun 18 13:58:19 Since PALM EMPLOYEES chat in here most every day, and since there has never been a HINT from them that palm doesn't approve of root, I'm not sure why the various bloggers are so convinced that Palm will shut us down. Palm isn't apple. Jun 18 13:59:29 (thank god) Jun 18 13:59:46 rick, keep your friends close - but your enemies closer Jun 18 14:00:00 Rick: I've wondered about that. Its like Palm has decided to happily look the other way. I figure if they can't release the SDK OR even communicate with their own dev community, and prefer to leave us in the dark, its the least they can do heh Jun 18 14:00:01 they're getting ready to stab us in the back Jun 18 14:00:26 just to play devil's advocate, the employees can liek us, but unless you see Jon Rubinstein in here saying he likes us it doesn't really matter Jun 18 14:00:41 how do you go into the proxy settings Jun 18 14:00:46 in the phone browser? Jun 18 14:00:51 i cant figure that out Jun 18 14:00:58 yeah, thinking i'm gonna have to suck it up and find a windows machine to root my pre before they force an update out to remove the backdoor Jun 18 14:01:13 the phone has proxy settings for the browser ? i've never tried that Jun 18 14:01:24 well Jun 18 14:01:37 instructions say change procy setinngs to localhost Jun 18 14:01:44 where do you do that? Jun 18 14:01:50 on your browser? Jun 18 14:01:51 what instructions? Jun 18 14:02:02 instructions say use novaproxy and connect to localhost using putty Jun 18 14:02:06 MikeWX: Its a good point, but the apparent attitude with which Palm approached the Wiki folks about the tethering issue "We just want to let you know that Sprint might complain and we'd be forced to act" suggests they're trying to be nice for as long as possible. Jun 18 14:03:02 CreoBrian: amen, and that's awesome. I was just playing devil's advocate. i've worked at many a place that the employees were decent folk but management had a different view. when it comes down to your view or your job, you implement. Jun 18 14:03:42 I hear ya. Of course from Palm's perspective as a hardware company, anything the homebrew community achieves just makes other people want to buy Palm Pre's. Jun 18 14:03:51 But they have to keep Sprint happy too of course. Jun 18 14:03:55 yep Jun 18 14:04:06 sprint and palm been in bed for a long time.. Jun 18 14:04:35 and you know how old married couples are :) Jun 18 14:05:14 so the pre web browser automatically proxies through the sprint proxy setup? Jun 18 14:05:20 just like the treo did? Jun 18 14:05:25 anything THANKS to all you Geniuses for all the assistance. I'm a pretty smart dude but you people make me feel like a complete moron (in a good way). ;) Jun 18 14:10:50 stop stealing my packets! Jun 18 14:13:07 but your packets are better than mine Jun 18 14:27:53 hey Jun 18 14:28:15 anyone know where the USB Mode question thing is (Media , USB, Justr Charge) Jun 18 14:28:47 when you plug in the phone Jun 18 14:28:49 it asks Jun 18 14:33:16 jclusso, you mean where in the filesystem that page is generated ? Jun 18 14:37:54 Wish GNUMP3d worked on the pre. anyone else streaming music Jun 18 14:39:32 it only seems to stream mp3 files from websites ;( Jun 18 14:39:58 yes Jun 18 14:40:06 I want to edit it so it defaults to Just Charge Jun 18 14:40:16 cause its stupid and if you dont select just charge it wont charge Jun 18 14:40:21 it will just sit there and do nothing Jun 18 14:40:29 also has anyone tried the game emulators Jun 18 14:41:24 i am pretty sure mine still charges Jun 18 14:41:33 if i don't choose anything Jun 18 14:42:30 would be better to make it automatically charge when the prompt is up so that 'just charge' would be a no-op. and anything else would turn off charging. Jun 18 14:42:51 well i think it just should default to just charge Jun 18 14:42:55 than if you want usb or media Jun 18 14:43:04 you just click the notifications area and select it from there Jun 18 14:43:20 also has anyone tried the emulator for ps1,2,3 nes, and all that shit Jun 18 14:43:27 that would work for me too Jun 18 14:43:33 there's a ps3 emulator? that sounds terrible Jun 18 14:51:14 any idea why I have to run the root process again after having access? Jun 18 14:52:32 djk, i don't understand the question ? Jun 18 14:53:18 I had root and done the ssh package. It was working but no is not open on 222 Jun 18 14:54:04 djk, interesting - should still be working if it was working before Jun 18 14:54:18 I have stopped and started wifi and it has been a couple of days since I last connected. seems odd Jun 18 14:55:09 very odd Jun 18 14:57:06 I'll try reboot and see if it comes back Jun 18 14:57:32 shouldn't need a reboot Jun 18 14:58:04 bpadalino|work: we found some interesting sthings about the no input problem Jun 18 14:58:20 anyone know if it is possible to have the ringer switch be a full mute? I hate being in a "library" like place and have an app start making loud noises Jun 18 14:58:22 tmzt, oh yeah ? Jun 18 14:58:33 hidd, the webos input daemon (not bluez) died because of remounting /tmp Jun 18 14:58:51 interesting Jun 18 15:04:39 bpadalino|work: oddly the reboot opened it up again Jun 18 15:05:32 very strange Jun 18 15:05:42 agree Jun 18 15:05:59 openssh or dropbear ? Jun 18 15:07:19 I think dropbear did the package install Jun 18 15:08:16 i wonder if db just got in a bad state Jun 18 15:08:48 maybe, wonder if my google contact will update with the missing entry Jun 18 15:10:51 bummer no luck on that Jun 18 15:12:10 has anyone figured out why facebook contacts dont update Jun 18 15:13:57 any major(ish) new discoveries in the last few days? Jun 18 15:14:29 since the 16th? Jun 18 15:18:30 benklop_: found some register settings for a2dp Jun 18 15:18:37 see ./a2dp Jun 18 15:19:28 ok back in action Jun 18 15:20:59 phillipah, once i uninstalled Flight View and Where, they updated. i've since re-installed them, assuming the new versions fix this issue. Jun 18 15:21:08 ^ update took ~24hrs. Jun 18 15:22:47 hah, lunasysmgr just crashed by trying to load duke nukem in classic Jun 18 15:22:59 good times Jun 18 15:23:30 nebula1: neato Jun 18 15:24:21 is thre a list anywhre of what standard linux utilities webOS includes, or maybe what it lacks? Jun 18 15:24:45 i'm downloading the image to take a look since i havn't got a device Jun 18 15:27:01 it has rsync, cron, vi, awk and sed and we added ssh...what else could you need? :) Jun 18 15:27:12 emacs Jun 18 15:27:14 just kidding Jun 18 15:27:44 type busybox in the bash Jun 18 15:27:55 it will give you the list of busybox programs that are there Jun 18 15:28:16 dreadchicken: yeah, really. Jun 18 15:28:23 does it have python by default? Jun 18 15:30:02 and is it actually a busybox shell, or does it run a full gnu environment? Jun 18 15:30:18 its busybox Jun 18 15:30:20 limited Jun 18 15:30:45 ls won't even give me color :) Jun 18 15:30:53 oh no... Jun 18 15:30:55 :-P Jun 18 15:30:58 :) Jun 18 15:31:06 lol Jun 18 15:31:32 benklop_, no python, php or perl. Jun 18 15:31:39 I'm writing an article from what i've gleaned from the wiki and this channel on what webos is. Jun 18 15:31:48 can that stuff be added pretty easily? Jun 18 15:31:56 sure Jun 18 15:32:15 and i know it has ipkg, is that how you get ssh in there? Jun 18 15:32:17 ipkg-opt install Jun 18 15:32:18 folks here have 1700~ packages for the Pre avail Jun 18 15:32:46 you can always build by source either cross-compile or on the device itself, although many think those whole compile on the device are crazy.... Jun 18 15:33:03 someone needs to write a wikidoc on cross compiling Jun 18 15:33:08 this is getting painful :) Jun 18 15:33:10 it includes gcc and friends? or installed with ipkg? Jun 18 15:33:20 nebula1, really i don't think we should Jun 18 15:33:30 we are not trying to train folks to be linux folks are we? Jun 18 15:33:40 then atleast point somewhere Jun 18 15:33:47 yea i agree there Jun 18 15:34:03 bdumm: would that be a unfortunate side effect? Jun 18 15:34:10 nebula1, install gcc on the pre :) Jun 18 15:34:20 benklop_, that = ? Jun 18 15:34:32 devevloping on the device itself? Jun 18 15:34:34 bdumm: i do all my compiling on the pre and it's painful, thats why i want to know how to cross compile Jun 18 15:34:35 oh, training people to be linux folks Jun 18 15:35:10 benklop_, no nothing like that at all, just cross-compiling or compiling in general is not something most newbies just pick up Jun 18 15:35:24 cross-compiling can be a royal pita if you don't know what your doing Jun 18 15:36:06 i would pay good money for something which explained how to develop for the embedded pre environment assuming ii knew linux well already Jun 18 15:36:06 bdumm: seriously. I'm not sure if gentoo has reduced or increased my pain for pretty much that reason Jun 18 15:36:17 nebula1, cross-compiling isn't hard, just gotta be "right" with your setup/packages otherwise you wind up with crap that won't build or doesn't have the right packages you wanted etc Jun 18 15:36:52 benklop_, i think gentoo is a bad hack, but that entirely imho :) Jun 18 15:37:48 bdumm: i'm not entirely disagreeing with you, but it happens to be a bad hack that makes it easier to develop and install apps without keeping too many things out side of the package manager Jun 18 15:37:58 bdumm: hence my needing a reference, i've never done it ;) Jun 18 15:38:13 i'm sure doing it once is all it will take to learn Jun 18 15:38:13 bdumm: and also makes very customized systems simpler Jun 18 15:38:24 benklop_, it has some nicities, but overall i'd rather go with another distro Jun 18 15:38:26 emerge --sync Jun 18 15:38:31 then ago i don't use any distros... Jun 18 15:38:36 err again Jun 18 15:38:41 man tired this morning :) Jun 18 15:39:01 nebula1, one sec let me see what i can find Jun 18 15:39:09 k Jun 18 15:39:55 nebula1, http://cross-lfs.org/files/BOOK/1.1.0/CLFS-1.1.0-x86.html Jun 18 15:40:04 there ya go, how to cross-compile a LFS Jun 18 15:40:16 should give ya enough details to be dangerous on your own Jun 18 15:40:50 not that i agree with all their methods/instructions, but it should be plenty to get ya started... Jun 18 15:41:34 if you change the root password, any idea whether that will stick around after Palm does an update? Jun 18 15:41:36 benklop_, so what is webos so far? Jun 18 15:41:53 benklop_, after Palm does an update I suspect many things will stick about Jun 18 15:42:28 bdumm: thx Jun 18 15:42:54 bdumm: i'm still figuring that out :) it's very cool though, hackable ,friendly, like what android should have been meets what the iPhone could be Jun 18 15:43:04 benklop_, i think all the hot air about the palm update is just that hot air Jun 18 15:43:37 i dunno if either coulda been the Pre, Apple is way too paranoid/lock-down for their own good, and android isn't even Linux really Jun 18 15:43:49 oh wait yes its linux, but ah nm :) Jun 18 15:43:52 bdumm: i'm just wondering whether the update will try to get in to do it's thing expecting the password to be blank, then wehen it can't get in, error out and wipe the thing Jun 18 15:44:27 bdumm: android is Linux, pre is gnu/linux? Jun 18 15:44:28 ummm i don't think that is how it works, ie there are daemons like umm Jun 18 15:44:33 @bdumm: cool! Jun 18 15:44:40 android is linux kernel + java crap Jun 18 15:44:51 you can call it linux if you want Jun 18 15:44:59 well the kernel is Jun 18 15:45:45 /usr/bin/UpdateDaemon Jun 18 15:45:54 which i think may have something to do with updates Jun 18 15:45:58 which is why there has always bewen the gnu/linux debate. since what most people see as Linux is really the GNU implementation of a Unix user space Jun 18 15:45:58 there's no linux userspace in android? Jun 18 15:46:04 benklop_, the kernel doth not an OS make Jun 18 15:47:28 bdumm: indeed. which is why the Pre excites me. it uses an OS that is extremely familiar, but in a dynamite package and with all the extensions to make it great Jun 18 15:47:56 at least as far as I have read... Jun 18 15:48:22 anyway, I'm hoping someone here can take a look over what i've got for accuracy once i'm through. Jun 18 15:48:23 benklop_, and its more or less true in all shapes, ie "have fun" is the motto from Palm and well we are having lots of fun Jun 18 15:48:46 sure, shoot us a uri i am sure the peanut gallery here will have a field day lol Jun 18 15:50:04 benklop_, who you writing for? Jun 18 15:50:46 bdumm: just myself, my own blog. wish it was more, but hey, i am what I am Jun 18 15:51:16 no worries all press is good press :) Jun 18 15:56:05 * bdumm waves Jun 18 15:56:19 hemna, any of those cross-scenes or whatever they are help? Jun 18 15:57:17 ? Jun 18 15:59:05 cross-app launch sorry Jun 18 15:59:09 not cross scene Jun 18 15:59:12 anyone worried about their screen wear-and-tear Jun 18 15:59:36 hey guys Jun 18 15:59:40 hi Jun 18 15:59:44 wsuppp Jun 18 15:59:44 still no qemu emulation/sdk out? Jun 18 15:59:48 ;x Jun 18 15:59:49 @summatusmentis wsup guy Jun 18 16:00:03 HEEHEHEEE question is .pkg for mac? Jun 18 16:00:07 atlanta: nothing worthwhile :) Jun 18 16:00:11 .pkg is for mac, yes Jun 18 16:00:16 it's an installer Jun 18 16:00:24 d3sm0nd: nope Jun 18 16:00:33 I'm sure you'll hear about it when it happens Jun 18 16:00:38 :) Jun 18 16:01:17 I'll try and throw together a quick wiki page on samba and mediatomb today Jun 18 16:01:30 samba sure is handy for developing apps Jun 18 16:02:06 you have samba running? people will love you Jun 18 16:15:14 summatusmentis, yes Jun 18 16:15:33 cool :0 Jun 18 16:15:35 :) * Jun 18 16:15:50 I can see a need for WebOS apps to start/stop linux services such as samba and mediatomb, etc Jun 18 16:15:58 so you don't have to ssh into the box to do it manually Jun 18 16:16:26 mediatomb rocks on the Pre Jun 18 16:16:34 snap a pict....watch it show up on your tv Jun 18 16:17:46 Yeah, we need to figure out how to get system commands to start in a mojo app Jun 18 16:21:58 or just exec a shell command from js would be sufficient Jun 18 16:23:07 well, right Jun 18 16:23:14 but as I understand it, that's not possible Jun 18 16:23:22 because it all goes through the js interpreter Jun 18 16:28:36 Still working on that - sadly progress is slow due to having a lot of real work I have to do at work :p Jun 18 16:28:53 And not being able to test anything on the pre until I get home Jun 18 16:29:12 stop having a job, seriously Jun 18 16:29:20 :-P Jun 18 16:30:15 bdumm: http://intellilinux.info/webos Jun 18 16:30:17 and for everyone else interested Jun 18 16:30:26 i'd like you guys to make sure i'm not totally off somewhere Jun 18 16:31:18 first sentence second paragraph makes it sound as though OS X is linux based, which isn't true Jun 18 16:32:21 you're also using "hack" in two different senses Jun 18 16:33:11 Palm hasn't officially acknowledged this community Jun 18 16:33:41 some Palm employees are here, and we've been notified, we know we're being watched, but we've never recieved an "official" go ahead Jun 18 16:33:52 okay Jun 18 16:35:07 summatusmentis: i've changed hack to break and added bsd based Jun 18 16:35:13 to the osx iphone thing Jun 18 16:35:32 i'll tackle the palm thing in a second Jun 18 16:36:37 benklop: cool :) I'd say the only other thing is make sure you understand how the subsystem works, or how we think it works Jun 18 16:37:06 My understanding is that things like Classic have binary blobs that are being run, and hooks into those binary blobs Jun 18 16:37:25 there's also a java vm that does something, and I'm not sure what Jun 18 16:38:27 ok Jun 18 16:38:36 otherwise, it looks good! Jun 18 16:38:59 I don't mean to tear it apart, that's the "editor of the variety section of the school newspaper" coming out :) Jun 18 16:39:00 i've changed the palm acknowledgement thing from "Palm" to "some palm employees" Jun 18 16:39:26 summatusmentis: actually go ahead, i mean the better the article the more likely it will get read Jun 18 16:39:40 I think it's important to make sure it doesn't sound like Palm has given us full go ahead Jun 18 16:39:44 i want it to be interesting but technically sound Jun 18 16:40:04 i hate it when people write about things they havn't get the understand to write about... Jun 18 16:40:14 *understanding Jun 18 16:40:19 everything we're doing is legal, so long as we don't break licensing/NDAs, and all information we have has been gleaned through legal means Jun 18 16:40:44 should I say that outright? Jun 18 16:40:46 But Palm could decide to play hardball, there is no official palm policy, that I know of Jun 18 16:41:30 that's up to you, but we don't want to sound like we're putting words in Palms mouth Jun 18 16:42:43 also, we were warned against posting copyrighted code places (redistribution of others copyrighted code, etc.) Jun 18 16:43:58 it might also be worth mentioned Optware by name (the people who have provided the 1700 packages) Jun 18 16:45:01 outside of that, I'd say it's good. You might want to have rwhitby look at it to make sure I got the stuff about Palm and our interactions right, he's been the one talking to them Jun 18 16:47:09 is there a website for optware? Jun 18 16:47:16 yeah, hold on Jun 18 16:47:37 ok, having trouble googling it Jun 18 16:47:50 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/Packages Jun 18 16:50:26 Has anyone else gone messing with the system sounds and alerts settings? Jun 18 16:50:28 benklop, i would reword the native app/gui dying bit some, it seemed from first read that the pre was br0k3n somehow... Jun 18 16:51:42 bdumm: i'm not sure what you're meaning Jun 18 16:52:32 wtf does 'palm://com.palm.systemservice" refer to. I can't find it anywhere Jun 18 16:53:55 Kaerey, it's a Palm IPC call ..it goes over the dbus Jun 18 16:53:59 Kaerey: What do you mean? The systemservice does a lot of things... Jun 18 16:54:07 where is it? Jun 18 16:54:15 it's on the dbus ? Jun 18 16:54:22 ahhh. Jun 18 16:54:29 Kaerey: It's provided by one of the native binaries Jun 18 16:54:51 damn those sneaky binaries Jun 18 16:54:51 summatusmentis: thanks Jun 18 16:55:02 alright....ping -n -1 is my new friend Jun 18 16:55:10 why is that ? Jun 18 16:55:23 /usr/bin/LunaSysService I think, but it would be hard to say for sure Jun 18 16:55:59 eno: sure thing Jun 18 16:56:03 wow Jun 18 16:56:10 benklop: sure thing Jun 18 16:56:12 eno: sorry, I can't type Jun 18 16:56:49 incase you missed it http://forums.precentral.net/palm-pre/186871-changing-notification-tones-coming.html Jun 18 16:57:03 scroll down about halfway to my linked image Jun 18 16:58:07 benklop, on the part where you talk of native apps killing off the gui, it just isn't clear imho Jun 18 16:58:33 native apps don't really kill off the gui Jun 18 16:58:34 oh, okay Jun 18 16:58:39 what happens then? Jun 18 16:58:55 the ones that are killing the gui are writing to the framebuffer, which is the same place the gui goes Jun 18 16:59:26 so I guess it's sort of killing the gui, but I'd say it's closer to "taking over the space where the gui is" Jun 18 16:59:29 or something Jun 18 16:59:45 and most of the native apps don't care about the framebuffer Jun 18 17:00:07 afaik, it's doom, nes, and vnc that are taking over the framebuffer Jun 18 17:00:23 so basically the other app is taking over the fb, and not telling the gui it can re-take it over Jun 18 17:00:59 I believe so, I'd ask Sargun to be sure Jun 18 17:01:02 or nebula Jun 18 17:01:06 summatusmentis, eh? Jun 18 17:01:13 eh? Jun 18 17:01:21 framebuffer, how are you guys accessing it Jun 18 17:01:24 oh Jun 18 17:01:33 SDL->directfb->/dev/fb0 Jun 18 17:01:33 SDL_VIDEODRIVER='directfb' Jun 18 17:01:35 im back Jun 18 17:01:38 lol like waking the dead, eh? Jun 18 17:01:44 and be clear, benklop is doing a write up on it Jun 18 17:02:07 When Luna uses the framebuffer, it makes it: BGRA Jun 18 17:02:15 all alphas are set to 0xff Jun 18 17:02:22 i thought it was ARGB Jun 18 17:02:33 nebula, we do ARGB, it does BGRA. Jun 18 17:02:39 summatusmentis, bdumm: see if you like that paragraph better now Jun 18 17:02:44 potato potato Jun 18 17:02:50 * Sargun slaps nebula Jun 18 17:02:54 ow. Jun 18 17:03:09 lol Jun 18 17:03:20 im backkkk Jun 18 17:03:29 * nebula tells Sargun to figure out how to pass the sbcbitpool to PmBtEngine Jun 18 17:03:57 nebula, disassemble that file, and figure out where it's getting it from Jun 18 17:04:01 i did Jun 18 17:04:02 Sargun: so you're taking over the framebuffer from Luna, but not killing the GUI, correct? Jun 18 17:04:07 where were you! Jun 18 17:04:15 one sec, i'll do it again Jun 18 17:04:17 summatusmentis, we're killin' GUIs left and right. Jun 18 17:04:41 benklop: can you re-link the article? I lost it Jun 18 17:04:53 http://intellilinux.info/webos Jun 18 17:05:22 nebula, [A2DP]: PrepareSbc : Bitpool Value %d !! Jun 18 17:05:31 percent deee Jun 18 17:05:39 Who would like to see an auto patcher Jun 18 17:06:04 like you enter your phones ip address and the program will make edits for you Jun 18 17:06:17 bpadalino|work: yeah we found that, just gotta figure out how to pass it to the binary Jun 18 17:06:24 decompiling now Jun 18 17:06:43 benklop: sound good, but you might have Sargun look at it to make sure. He's actually written code that does it, so... :) Jun 18 17:06:52 @nebula what language is the code in ? Jun 18 17:07:02 arm/asm Jun 18 17:07:16 Sargun: wanna take a look and make sure i'm not spreading lies? http://intellilinux.info/webos Jun 18 17:07:23 plz hodl Jun 18 17:07:29 oh lordy i need to learn that so i can help with the lower level stuff Jun 18 17:07:30 benklop, sure. Jun 18 17:07:41 thanks Jun 18 17:08:05 In fact, some Palm employees have unofficially acknowledged the hacking / homebrew community, and they have given them only one rule: Don't disclose or discuss any information regarding tethering, because then Sprint would probably complain to Palm, and then Palm would have to shut the homebrew community out. On top of this obvious hat tipping, I was told that several Palm employees actually frequent the homebrew IRC channel. Essentially, P Jun 18 17:08:05 alm has told them this: "Have Fun!" Jun 18 17:08:23 It'd be nice if you didn't exactly put it as an official statement Jun 18 17:09:12 @nebula how long you known asm.arm Jun 18 17:09:24 Sargun: i put unofficially.. how can I change it that would help? Jun 18 17:09:27 nebula, have you tried using the palmsniffer ? Jun 18 17:09:36 I guess i'm not sure how unofficial the statrement was Jun 18 17:09:41 nebula, or using the -v option for verbose BT output ? Jun 18 17:09:49 @benklop dont quote it Jun 18 17:09:59 atlanta: okay Jun 18 17:10:04 just be like they have even told the member to have fun Jun 18 17:10:43 . This includes a package manager, vi, python, rsync, cron, awk, and sed, and basically whatever else is in busybox. -- python isn't included. Jun 18 17:10:45 I was told that several Palm employees actually frequent the homebrew IRC channel, and told users to have fun Jun 18 17:11:02 okay, this is beginning to annoy me: just for fun I decided to compile RoM MUD on the Pre...works great, except I can't seem to connect to it from anywhere other than localhost (or to eth0 on the Pre itself), what besides /etc/services should I look at to enable some port listening action? Jun 18 17:11:33 did you open the port through iptables Jun 18 17:11:33 ?

I have a friend that has an iPhone and they want to switch to the Pre, but wants to stay with their provider for some reason Jun 18 18:07:14 step 1) ssh into you.. oh crap! Jun 18 18:07:17 :) Jun 18 18:07:25 lol Jun 18 18:07:33 really is there a way to reset the pass Jun 18 18:07:34 hemna, the pre currently is only CDMA so they can't stay with ATT .. Jun 18 18:07:36 seekis, can't get root via terminal over usb? Jun 18 18:07:40 yes Jun 18 18:07:43 i can Jun 18 18:07:47 hemna, there will be a UMTS one (compatible with ATT) rumored to be out soon enough Jun 18 18:07:48 ok there you go Jun 18 18:07:56 that will run webos - but not be in the same pre form factor Jun 18 18:08:05 but how do i reset the pass Jun 18 18:08:12 passwd Jun 18 18:08:16 seekis, type passwd and it should give you a prom0pt Jun 18 18:08:21 ok Jun 18 18:08:53 not sure why you would intentionally want to go with a crippled carrier Jun 18 18:09:02 Sprint at least has mms already :P Jun 18 18:09:19 I've been a Sprint customer for years though, and have been happy with them Jun 18 18:09:27 I had a few Treo models prior to the Pre Jun 18 18:09:43 * nebula beats the crap out of pandora for playing red hot chili peppers... again. Jun 18 18:10:09 * czarphanguye is listening to RHCP (again.) Jun 18 18:10:10 I never really understood why folks like pandora Jun 18 18:10:16 it never seems to play the music I want to hear Jun 18 18:10:49 do i have to restart ssh after every reboot? Jun 18 18:10:56 seekis, depends on how you set it up Jun 18 18:11:08 if you set it up to restart as a service every time you boot .. Jun 18 18:11:09 then no Jun 18 18:11:10 if not, then yes Jun 18 18:11:11 :) Jun 18 18:11:21 Is the SDK available to the public/smaller developers yet? Jun 18 18:11:23 so just term in and then use init start? Jun 18 18:12:34 what FS is the pre using? Jun 18 18:13:14 term says connection refused Jun 18 18:13:20 * Lurking_Grue pandora keeps playing Tenacious D.... Jun 18 18:13:58 * DogWater wishes they'd release more apps for the Pre :D Jun 18 18:14:18 I think pandora loops through no more then 15-20 songs. so once it runs out it plays same songs over Jun 18 18:14:59 no worse than any radio station in the US except they dont play the same 15-20 ads over and over Jun 18 18:15:12 stll getting connection refused Jun 18 18:15:19 what did i do wrong Jun 18 18:15:38 i've got a nice local radio station that plays some good alternative music ... usually pretty good selection Jun 18 18:15:39 If you use quickmix you need to log on to the page with a computer and add all your stations to get more music. Jun 18 18:15:40 seekis: wifi or evdo? Jun 18 18:15:47 wifi Jun 18 18:15:48 There seems to be no interface for that on the pre. Jun 18 18:15:50 and not many commercials - just underwriting commercials Jun 18 18:15:51 which are great Jun 18 18:16:20 seekis, what are you trying to do exactly ? Jun 18 18:16:23 sikis use novaterm to find out the pre's ip address Jun 18 18:16:26 ssh in Jun 18 18:16:30 i did Jun 18 18:16:31 i have it Jun 18 18:16:35 i tried it Jun 18 18:16:39 may have changed? Jun 18 18:16:40 i got connection refused Jun 18 18:16:41 nope Jun 18 18:16:47 im looking at it right now Jun 18 18:16:47 have you enabled ssh previously ? Jun 18 18:16:49 yes Jun 18 18:17:00 is your phone screen on when you're trying to ssh in ? Jun 18 18:17:03 i changed the pass and now it wont connect Jun 18 18:17:06 nope Jun 18 18:17:19 turn the screen on and then try Jun 18 18:17:32 seekis: look here http://predev.wikidot.com/adding-the-ipkg-repository that's how I did it and works all the time Jun 18 18:17:40 does sprint block port 80 requests into their network? Jun 18 18:18:01 I tried running thttpd on port 80, and opened a f/w rule, but no requests got in Jun 18 18:18:05 works fine on 8080 Jun 18 18:18:07 im have that page open Jun 18 18:18:12 still no connection Jun 18 18:18:29 seekis, can you ping your phones ip ? Jun 18 18:18:50 yup Jun 18 18:18:52 pinging away Jun 18 18:18:55 Looks like sprint blocks personal dns servers. Jun 18 18:19:21 seekis, all i can suggest is making sure your port is correct - sorry Jun 18 18:19:31 its 222 Jun 18 18:19:38 at least is was the first time Jun 18 18:19:42 does it change on its own? Jun 18 18:19:45 no Jun 18 18:20:19 ill try a reboot Jun 18 18:20:36 though it would be amusing if they did move the sshd port every 10 minutes Jun 18 18:20:40 and you had to guess what it was Jun 18 18:21:06 how do you ssh via evdo? Jun 18 18:21:46 Bp: It would be nmap for the win :) Jun 18 18:22:08 grue, absolutely - but it would still be amusing Jun 18 18:22:32 grue, especially if they setup a rule to ignore you if you have 10 ports connecting at a time Jun 18 18:22:54 seekis, change your destination IP Jun 18 18:23:12 so ... user@evdo IP Jun 18 18:23:36 does the iptables command allow port 222 over evdo ? Jun 18 18:24:13 seekis, there's an optional part in the setup of the optware repo that shows where the iptables rule only alows ssh to eth0...you remove the '-i eth0' part from both rules and can then get to it over EVDO Jun 18 18:24:47 how do i remove the i Jun 18 18:25:14 * Lurking_Grue gets daft punk this time on his Pandora. Jun 18 18:25:21 still no connection over wifi Jun 18 18:25:28 checked the ip Jun 18 18:25:31 on same network Jun 18 18:25:33 ping is ok Jun 18 18:25:41 'Connection refused' Jun 18 18:26:11 sorry ? Jun 18 18:26:20 connect over usb is my next suggestion Jun 18 18:26:55 i am connected via usb, but how does that help my current situation? Jun 18 18:27:14 you can run the command to allow you evdo access Jun 18 18:27:33 troubleshooting is tiresome :( Jun 18 18:27:59 so ssh over evdo is over the cell network or is it connecting though my wifi into the evdo radio? Jun 18 18:28:00 rwhitby: Soory I "stood you up" yesterday. A work crisis kept me away from the computer late into the evening. Jun 18 18:28:40 seekis, EVDO is over cellular Jun 18 18:28:43 seekis, over the cell network Jun 18 18:28:54 And I doubt I'll have time today, but maybe later this evening. Jun 18 18:29:18 so how do i comment out the i Jun 18 18:29:23 in term? Jun 18 18:29:43 i wonder why they're not using bluz Jun 18 18:29:47 bluez Jun 18 18:29:59 you don't comment it out, you have to actually delete it from the line that is the iptables rule...it's in that file you should have downloaded to /etc/event.d Jun 18 18:30:23 how do i open that file to edit Jun 18 18:30:25 ls Jun 18 18:30:50 sounds like you need to step back and get familiar with some basic linux commands....vi is a good editor Jun 18 18:30:57 vi? Jun 18 18:30:57 seekis: vi /etc/event.d/webos-sshenabler Jun 18 18:31:45 seekis: but if you already ran that script, then ppp0 is blocked. update iptables after removing `-i eth0` Jun 18 18:32:51 i entered vi /etc/event.d/webos-sshenabler and now i got a blank term with /etc/event.d/webos-sshenabler 1/1 100% Jun 18 18:33:02 did i do something wrong? Jun 18 18:34:13 seekis: should be http://blogs.gurulabs.com/dax/webos-sshenabler Jun 18 18:34:32 thats for drop bear Jun 18 18:34:38 im using openssh Jun 18 18:34:47 but still it just gives me a blank screen Jun 18 18:34:56 do i type all this http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/raw/master/etc/event.d/optware-openssh Jun 18 18:35:37 nvm Jun 18 18:35:38 i got it Jun 18 18:35:51 vi /etc/event.d/optware-openssh Jun 18 18:35:52 note to self....don't hand over Pre to coworker when you still have a pr0n site up on the browser Jun 18 18:36:39 hemna: good rule.

Jun 18 18:44:31 thttpd hates 755 Jun 18 18:44:43 it won't serve up .jpg/data files w/ the exec bit on :( Jun 18 18:45:35 bootie Jun 18 18:45:44 ungziped from boot.bin Jun 18 18:45:45 http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en&sa=N&cd=3&ct=rc#1x2DOGRl7X8/include/asm/arch-omap3/omap3430.h&q=48320000 Jun 18 18:45:47 loaded into ida Jun 18 18:46:21 chron, ok - so the bootloader disassembly .. Jun 18 18:46:57 chron: http://i43.tinypic.com/j58mds.png Jun 18 18:47:09 did you disassemble against armv7 ? Jun 18 18:47:45 hemna: couldn't you change the mask in /etc/fstab for /media/internal? Jun 18 18:48:10 I suppose so, not sure how it will effect other files though? Jun 18 18:48:14 nebula, pretty picture - what created it ? Jun 18 18:48:23 bpadalino|work: ida pro Jun 18 18:48:28 nice Jun 18 18:48:31 looks like they get timer value and mutiply by 1000 Jun 18 18:48:43 (re 820032E0) Jun 18 18:50:38 roxfan: thanks for link, u are probably right Jun 18 18:50:42 ah actually Jun 18 18:50:46 http://git.newos.org/?p=lk.git;a=blob;f=platform/omap3/timer.c;h=f101f503ee9d6d1556336ba18ab4caa4c4abe9ca;hb=HEAD Jun 18 18:50:54 current_time is it Jun 18 18:50:59 ahh Jun 18 18:51:22 umask=133 then to get 644 for new files? Jun 18 18:51:56 hemna: since default is 755, I think you have to subtract from that Jun 18 18:52:21 111 ? Jun 18 18:53:10 cron job with a script that chmods whatever file types you're interested in? Jun 18 18:53:50 root@castle:/opt/share/www# umask Jun 18 18:53:50 0022 Jun 18 18:54:00 that looks like the default in the root's shell Jun 18 18:54:14 aha Jun 18 18:54:16 so files should get 755 perms by default? Jun 18 18:54:47 Jun 18 18:54:47 EL Jun 18 18:54:47 Physical Address 0x48320010 Jun 18 18:54:47 Description This register contains the 32-kHz sync counter value.

Jun 18 18:55:37 /media Jun 18 18:55:46 hemna: that's because perms aren't supported on vfat. that's why you need to change it in fstab Jun 18 18:55:53 doesn't umask for the user's shell overload any partition's umask? Jun 18 18:56:03 that's for creating files Jun 18 18:56:38 ok I'll try /etc/fstab Jun 18 18:56:40 hemna: if you want to strip execute perms from stuff on a vfat partition, I reckon you need to specify this when mounting Jun 18 18:57:05 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/permissions-problem-in-mounted-vfat-partition-45848/ Jun 18 18:57:12 rebooting Jun 18 18:57:45 ok cool thanks bpadalino Jun 18 18:57:53 added umask=133 Jun 18 18:57:58 see if that'll fix it Jun 18 19:00:05 join preguides Jun 18 19:00:21 oops Jun 18 19:01:17 bpad: So'd you give up on compiling the toolchain for OS X? Jun 18 19:01:34 do you have to use port 222 for ssh Jun 18 19:01:34 ? Jun 18 19:01:59 seekis, no Jun 18 19:02:06 ok Jun 18 19:02:08 would it be umask 111, or 133....never used it before Jun 18 19:02:23 jblebrun, indeed .. i figure running a VM in fusion was easier and better than trying to get the cross compiling tools to build .. Jun 18 19:03:06 tried ssh over evdo 'Operation timed out' Jun 18 19:03:16 seekis: are you on the charger? Jun 18 19:03:19 yes Jun 18 19:03:43 your pre is the first in the skynet and has decided to disable ssh access Jun 18 19:03:55 haha Jun 18 19:04:18 gah..umas=133 made everything on the mount 644 Jun 18 19:04:21 including dirs Jun 18 19:04:25 err umask Jun 18 19:04:30 it sounds more like some of the intitial configuration steps didn't get followed...maybe didn't kill dropbear or openssh after installing it? Jun 18 19:04:43 hemna: well at least you know now to subtract from 777 Jun 18 19:04:52 i did Jun 18 19:04:53 heh. dmask maybe? Jun 18 19:04:55 killall ssh Jun 18 19:04:58 sshd* Jun 18 19:04:58 dmask 022 Jun 18 19:05:10 bpadalino: I might have a stab at it over the weekend. Jun 18 19:06:16 cool that fixed it Jun 18 19:06:50 wait, what was it? Jun 18 19:07:34 no ssh over wifi Jun 18 19:07:36 how can i fix? Jun 18 19:07:39 ok Jun 18 19:07:47 cool, now the web server always shows the last image taken Jun 18 19:08:22 hemna, was dmask a command to run or an option for /etc/fstab, and do I need to take out the umask=133 I already have there Jun 18 19:08:38 i had to add it to /etc/fstab as well as the umask Jun 18 19:08:43 umask=133,dmask=022 Jun 18 19:08:50 ah, okay Jun 18 19:08:53 thanks Jun 18 19:09:31 hemna: is your /media/internal still owned by root, or uid=1001? Jun 18 19:09:38 root currently Jun 18 19:09:47 so when you use SFTP, you can't write to it? Jun 18 19:10:09 I'm trying not to change much of the system as possible, so I don't break the webos apps Jun 18 19:10:16 I'm using samba Jun 18 19:10:40 I samba export /var/usr/palm/applications Jun 18 19:10:40 how is samba working for u Jun 18 19:10:40 ? Jun 18 19:10:57 works well Jun 18 19:10:58 ?/ Jun 18 19:11:00 and chown com.hemna.app.test to my user Jun 18 19:11:01 yah Jun 18 19:11:10 which package you used to install it Jun 18 19:11:11 ? Jun 18 19:11:18 ipkg-opt install samba Jun 18 19:11:19 :P Jun 18 19:11:23 haha Jun 18 19:11:24 I was going to make a wiki page on it Jun 18 19:11:28 how big is samba Jun 18 19:11:29 ? Jun 18 19:11:31 just haven't gotten to it yet Jun 18 19:11:36 yea do that Jun 18 19:11:41 hello Jun 18 19:11:42 im not to great at using it Jun 18 19:11:46 any thing need configing Jun 18 19:11:47 ? Jun 18 19:12:03 f Jun 18 19:12:06 scp -r works for me! :D Jun 18 19:12:15 for whatever reason the samba package didn't come with a sample smb.conf Jun 18 19:12:19 so I had to hand make one Jun 18 19:12:36 i just copy everything to /media/internal with SFTP, and /media/internal is owned by non-root. Jun 18 19:12:37 I like having the share mounted, so I can just edit in eclipse, save, test Jun 18 19:13:20 and got wireless sync with Songbird ;) Jun 18 19:13:23 I was trying to use WinSCP last night, and with both scp and sftp as protocols, I couldn't copy anything...I could log in to my directory, etc., but no copying Jun 18 19:13:57 you can copy things over to /media/internal by mounting your device as a USB drive if you would rather get rid of the scp step Jun 18 19:14:37 yeah, good point Jun 18 19:14:49 bp: yeah but then you have to fiddle with that annoying plastic door. Jun 18 19:14:51 but that's not good for app dev Jun 18 19:15:40 I noticed after I trimmed my fingernails, it was really hard to open! Jun 18 19:15:52 yah you need nails to open it Jun 18 19:16:24 steviebuns, i noticed that i can get the door open with a little nail under the bottom aprt of the door Jun 18 19:16:33 felt like I was going to break it the first time I tried to open it Jun 18 19:16:33 it seems to be the easiest place to slide even the smallest nail under Jun 18 19:17:19 but i think it's because the bottom side has the holder thing in place instead of the clip .. Jun 18 19:17:44 so trying the top with the clip is just a bad idea since you're working agains tthe clip instead of the free little holder thinger Jun 18 19:18:33 my goal is to just not use it whenever possible. hmmm, that's gonna be about $200 in touchstones... Jun 18 19:19:36 maybe you can get a bulk discount Jun 18 19:19:57 speaking of: http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/dude-hardwires-palm-touchstone-into-bmw-charging-ensues/ Jun 18 19:21:16 Someone should make an entire wall of Touchstones. Jun 18 19:23:10 Battery hack tutorials? Jun 18 19:23:16 are their anny Jun 18 19:23:32 how do you want to hack the battery ? Jun 18 19:23:39 idk i wanna make it last longer Jun 18 19:23:54 hack #1) turn your phone off Jun 18 19:23:57 LOL Jun 18 19:24:12 Lol hack #2) Dont buy the pre Jun 18 19:24:33 if you are a heavy user, it will last about 4 or 5 hours of heavy use Jun 18 19:24:45 i text alot so Jun 18 19:24:52 over night last night (~8 hours of no use) - it went down 15% Jun 18 19:25:05 yeah its not on standby for me Jun 18 19:25:23 yeah, for you i'd say you're going to get more of the 5-8 hours of use before you need to recharge Jun 18 19:25:25 ive noticed if on standby and theirs no apps runnign its good but with apps it dies Jun 18 19:26:00 I had my first extended away-from-charger time last night. Jun 18 19:27:07 I went from 100%-40% over about 7 hours Jun 18 19:27:21 Yeah i tend to take my charger everywhear i go Jun 18 19:27:24 With GPS on, push email on, and moderate usage Jun 18 19:27:27 jblebrun, interesting .. Jun 18 19:27:37 i had gps, push email, no wifi, bluetooth and no usage Jun 18 19:27:47 just idling other than the email Jun 18 19:27:51 (eg, i was sleeping) Jun 18 19:28:02 its seeming the more i charge and break in the battery the better its getting Jun 18 19:28:05 Maybe I'll do an overnight text. Jun 18 19:28:24 test Jun 18 19:28:50 sloppyjm, i think i am seeing that too Jun 18 19:28:55 jble: try runing a app or so overnight and see if it goes down and then try with no apps and see what happens Jun 18 19:29:33 The battery clearly sucks thow thats why palm didint have those specs ahahah Jun 18 19:30:03 which app were you running ? Jun 18 19:30:12 playing music stops the power daemon from shutting down into deep sleep Jun 18 19:30:22 i wonder how many other apps do the same thing Jun 18 19:30:59 i have no clue but i have email off and everything off and my battery stayed in the 90's last night from 11 til like 8am maybe i had texting on idk Jun 18 19:31:38 i had an issue where an EAS process wouldn't exit, which prevented the power daemon from enabling sleep mode (consequently draining the battery in record time) Jun 18 19:32:04 ultimately i had to delete and re-create the mail account on the pre Jun 18 19:32:13 i bet it's going to be a common problem Jun 18 19:32:19 maybe we could set the processor to use less power yet still b powerfull enough Jun 18 19:32:22 how did you figure out it it was EAS ? Jun 18 19:32:32 watching /var/log/messages Jun 18 19:32:44 (go standard syslog!) Jun 18 19:33:28 hehe Jun 18 19:34:54 bpadalino: how's precomd coming out of curiosity? Jun 18 19:36:38 bsiegel, i pushed it up to gitorious .. Jun 18 19:36:41 it compiles .. Jun 18 19:36:46 and gets into the nop mode Jun 18 19:36:57 i've started writing/documenting what i've found about the protocol Jun 18 19:37:23 git location is here: http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/precomd Jun 18 19:38:01 i'll see what i can do later tonight possibly depending on how ambitious i get .. Jun 18 19:38:07 if you really need more battery, you might try this... http://www.amazon.com/Javoedge-High-Capacity-Portable-Battery/dp/B000N63AC6 Jun 18 19:38:11 it should work for any system that has libusb installed and linkable .. Jun 18 19:38:15 it'll power a pre for about a week. Jun 18 19:39:47 sounds like good progress :) Jun 18 19:40:09 KSDLFKJSL:DJFL:KSD why can't I find where the reference to notification.wav is hard coded. Jun 18 19:41:22 bsiegel, well - it's OK .. Jun 18 19:41:43 another handy thing for getting more battery when away from power is MintyBoost: http://www.ladyada.net/make/mintyboost/ Jun 18 19:41:55 i found out some stuff late last night .. and didn't change the structures yet Jun 18 19:42:01 uses AA's Jun 18 19:42:09 things like figuring out if we're connected over usb to castle-linux or castle-bootie Jun 18 19:43:15 bpadalino: I'm reading your protocol doc now, excellent sleuthing Jun 18 19:45:01 still having trouble ssh'ing over wifi Jun 18 19:45:04 any suggestions Jun 18 19:46:45 if anyone can find where the reference to notification.wav is hard coded for the alerts and notifications, I have the rest of the front end done to select new files and edits to the sounds and alerts app. But I can't override notification.wav yet Jun 18 19:49:02 bsiegel, neat - let me know if you have comments Jun 18 19:50:42 Kaerey: i see it in /etc/palm/defaultPreferences.txt Jun 18 19:50:58 that's for the initial setting of preferences. Jun 18 19:51:18 it has a setting for ringtone as well but we can change that Jun 18 19:51:59 I need to find what that file is setting Jun 18 19:53:41 usually in /var the preferences are stored Jun 18 19:55:34 Kaerey: /var/luna/preferences/systemprefs.db Jun 18 19:55:47 SELECT notificationtone FROM Preferences Jun 18 19:55:56 bpadalino: It sounds like you have opened the tty successfully? Jun 18 19:56:06 Sweet! I can work from that Jun 18 19:56:16 anyone looked into doing xmpp/jabber on the pre? I know it uses libpurple, and google talk is just a specific jabber server Jun 18 19:56:22 I've been searching the webOS image and it's not there. Jun 18 19:56:41 Kaerey: Yeah, I had to go to my actual phone to find it Jun 18 19:57:06 bsiegel, not quite yet - i've opened into the NOP sequence ... Jun 18 19:57:14 i think they call it the "null" sequence Jun 18 19:57:20 then there is control and data Jun 18 19:57:26 and pmux data as well Jun 18 19:59:09 hola all Jun 18 19:59:34 ok thanks jblebrun I got meetings all afternoon but when I get home I'll get to work on this. Jun 18 20:01:46 anyword on ssl? Jun 18 20:02:01 how do you release something like WEBos with out ssl? Jun 18 20:03:20 For webOS explorers who like to tweak things: http://predev.wikidot.com/tweak-ideas Jun 18 20:06:21 my ssh is not working Jun 18 20:06:25 any way to fix Jun 18 20:06:27 ? Jun 18 20:08:22 ill take that as a no... Jun 18 20:09:24 seekis, what's not working? Jun 18 20:09:37 seekis: In general, "My is not working, how do I fix it" is not going to result in many answers. Jun 18 20:10:17 when i try to ssh into my pre i get 'Connection refused' Jun 18 20:10:57 im new to linux and i can not figure out why it stopped working Jun 18 20:11:16 i am on same network Jun 18 20:11:18 i have current ip Jun 18 20:11:20 seekis: So you did have it working at some point? Jun 18 20:11:22 and i have started the ssh Jun 18 20:11:25 yes Jun 18 20:11:30 it worked before reboot Jun 18 20:11:33 seekis: Are you connecting to the correct port? Jun 18 20:11:39 i re initiallized and still nothing Jun 18 20:11:40 is the port open to accept connections? Jun 18 20:11:42 yes Jun 18 20:11:44 seekis: Did you add the event.d script? Jun 18 20:11:47 yes Jun 18 20:12:18 hmm, does anyone know where Classic stores the trial start date? I'm trying to see if I can modify it to reset the trial. Jun 18 20:12:21 http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/dude-hardwires-palm-touchstone-into-bmw-charging-ensues/ Jun 18 20:12:45 jrgutier: That would be a violation of user agreement, so it's not appropriate to discuss here. Jun 18 20:12:56 ok, sorry. Jun 18 20:12:59 No problem Jun 18 20:13:46 If you want some more background, check out: http://predev.wikidot.com/webos-internals-irc-channel-policy Jun 18 20:15:23 Ok, "violation of user agreement" was probably not the correct phrase. Jun 18 20:21:25 hey so let me get this right Jun 18 20:21:31 it's easier to do this in linux than windows? Jun 18 20:21:39 and or *need* linux to do the teathering? Jun 18 20:21:52 it's like my dream come truew, i can drop this xp/vista like alead weight Jun 18 20:22:39 morning Jun 18 20:23:47 Hi rwhitby Jun 18 20:23:55 hello all Jun 18 20:26:10 Hi EvanPro Jun 18 20:27:18 anyone try to install Windows XP via Bochs?

Jun 18 20:28:49 hope optware has a package alraedy Jun 18 20:29:04 if not, i'm gonna have to install debian Jun 18 20:29:16 or setup a cross compiler Jun 18 20:33:18 benklop: nice blog article Jun 18 20:33:26 I'd love an adblock/flashblock feature for the Pre browser Jun 18 20:33:29 it needs it Jun 18 20:35:13 hemna: Well you've already got flashblock ;-) Jun 18 20:35:24 heh Jun 18 20:35:29 heh Jun 18 20:36:39 hemna: You can get adblock like behavior by playwith with /etc/hosts Jun 18 20:37:07 yah poor mans adblock I suppose Jun 18 20:37:10 the pre browser needs to be firefox instead of failkit Jun 18 20:37:22 i tried to use mibbit the other day Jun 18 20:37:23 I just need to go to work at Palm and add all the cool shit that's missing Jun 18 20:37:41 and failkit didn't render the form page right and the go button was not visible Jun 18 20:37:50 retry, I'd love to use FF, but it's a beast in size and ram usage Jun 18 20:37:55 i know :/ Jun 18 20:37:56 retry: It's not WebKit per se, just their broken implementation. Jun 18 20:38:04 ah Jun 18 20:38:13 it needs help Jun 18 20:38:15 Yes. Jun 18 20:38:34 hey i got a question...if all these hacks require remounting the root fs rw and back to ro Jun 18 20:38:38 how do the front end apps save changes? Jun 18 20:38:54 retry: user stuff is stored in /var Jun 18 20:39:03 ok Jun 18 20:39:03 retry: I don't believe /var is ro Jun 18 20:39:15 yeah that is what I was thinking Jun 18 20:39:26 i mean I typed mount and saw the way things were mounted Jun 18 20:39:44 so a lotof the guides that say first mount the fs rw Jun 18 20:39:44 retry: mount seems to report incorrectly for me. It always shows / as (rw) Jun 18 20:39:48 Even when I remount it ro Jun 18 20:39:57 well I get TWO entries for / Jun 18 20:40:00 one that says rw Jun 18 20:40:02 one says ro Jun 18 20:40:37 as for /var being rw and / being ro sometimes it's confusing what with all the symlinks Jun 18 20:40:47 like root is in /var/home/root Jun 18 20:40:52 but if you cd back it is no longer /var Jun 18 20:41:12 hey for tap and drag, do i need to add drag command? Jun 18 20:42:03 seekis: Are you talking in the context of writing a webOS application? Jun 18 20:42:15 no Jun 18 20:42:38 im talking about enabling app menu and device menu dragging Jun 18 20:42:57 http://predev.wikidot.com/drag-menus Jun 18 20:43:10 i dont see anything about adding a drag command Jun 18 20:43:29 it's in there, you need to copy the same lines that are tap Jun 18 20:43:41 and paste them below themselves and edit tap to drag Jun 18 20:43:46 ok Jun 18 20:43:51 that'll support both tap and drag... if you want just drag modify the lines from tap to drag Jun 18 20:43:58 I'm getting Errno 10061 trying to root no matter what I try, anyone have a minute to try and help? Jun 18 20:43:58 or wear a dress Jun 18 20:44:02 o_0 Jun 18 20:46:08 I'm on XP, no firewall or AV installed, windows firewall service stopped, novacom driver installed, running as an admin and I'm getting Errno 10061 actively refused connection Jun 18 20:46:11 Anyone tried the extended life battery? Jun 18 20:46:43 o0zeno0o: I've not yet. I want to wait for a bigger increase :-) Jun 18 20:47:51 So what's the current projects goin on? anything especially exciting? Jun 18 20:49:02 I haven't heard anything lately. Jun 18 20:49:05 pEEf: no worries about last night. Jun 18 20:50:23 still no clues as to when to expect the sdk? Jun 18 20:50:31 rwhitby, which time zone are you in in australia, so i know when i google for "time in australia" i know which one to look at Jun 18 20:50:35 anyone have any ideas? :( Jun 18 20:51:00 bpadalino|work: GMT+9:30 Jun 18 20:51:00 jterhune, sounds like your iptables is not setup properly ? Jun 18 20:51:01 ping -n -1 [ip of pre] this doesn't work to keep ssh going Jun 18 20:51:09 phone still goes to sleep and powers off the wifi antenna Jun 18 20:51:34 I could really use a real terminal app.. ajaxphpterm works, but it's usefulness is kinda slim. Jun 18 20:51:59 bpadalino, you mean on the pre? I haven't been able to root yet, so I can't do any iptables config Jun 18 20:52:42 jterhune, oh - so you are using novaproxy ? Jun 18 20:53:24 however Jun 18 20:53:24 initctl stop powerd Jun 18 20:53:30 will stop the phone from powering down :D Jun 18 20:53:34 bpadalino, I'm following the guide on http://predev.wikidot.com/rooting , I installed the novacom msi, python 2.6.2, and ran talk.py. It is throwing errno 10061, though, even though I have no firewall Jun 18 20:53:48 jterhune, your pre is connected up ? Jun 18 20:54:07 jterhune: it doesn't work in win7, that could be a problem Jun 18 20:54:13 bpadalino, via USB, currently in "Charge Only" mode Jun 18 20:54:13 Filefly: how's those novaproxy instructions coming along? Jun 18 20:54:23 mikewx, I'm currently on XP after it failed on win7 Jun 18 20:54:23 i think jterhune is using xp he said Jun 18 20:54:51 does your pre show up in device manager? Jun 18 20:55:12 jterhune, also - is your device in dev mode ? Jun 18 20:55:49 bpadalino, yes, I switched it on and it rebooted, shows up in device manager as "Palm Novacom" under the category "Palm Novacom Modules" Jun 18 20:56:03 that's good Jun 18 20:56:15 has anyone had any issues with the usb port not responding? Jun 18 20:57:10 jterhune, sounds like things are good so far Jun 18 20:57:22 seekis: what do you mean, it won't go into USB/Media mode? Jun 18 20:57:40 nothing happens when i plug in the usb line Jun 18 20:57:48 yowza Jun 18 20:57:48 i just enabled drag menus Jun 18 20:57:52 How do i edit the txt files to do the messaging modifacations Jun 18 20:58:07 Good day everyone. Jun 18 20:58:10 these are good questions to go into a FAQ Jun 18 20:58:12 bpadalino, so any idea what is throwing the error? Jun 18 20:58:16 seekis: in that case, no - haven't had that problem Jun 18 20:58:21 aw dang Jun 18 20:58:39 bpadalino, do I need to be in media sync or usb mode instead of charge mode? Jun 18 20:58:43 jterhune, yeah - probably python is throwing the error ... apparently it can't connect to the novacomd Jun 18 20:58:59 jterhune, any of those modes should work for this Jun 18 20:58:59 bpadalino, should I be using a version other than 2.6.2? Jun 18 20:59:01 phew Jun 18 20:59:03 its working now Jun 18 20:59:11 us python 2.5.4 Jun 18 20:59:11 i've heard 2.6.2 is ok .. just not 3 Jun 18 20:59:14 thats what i used Jun 18 20:59:20 2.5.4 sounds good too Jun 18 20:59:27 bpadalino, alternatively, is there a linux root path? I'll grab 2.5.4 to try Jun 18 20:59:31 jterhune, do you want to paste the WHOLE ERROR you're getting to the web ? Jun 18 20:59:32 i used 2.6.2 Jun 18 20:59:35 webos.pastebin.com ? Jun 18 20:59:50 http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5.4/ Jun 18 21:01:03 sloppyjm: http://predev.wikidot.com/basic-linux-use for editor help Jun 18 21:01:37 someone should probably make a wiki entry that is titled "How to ask a question" - so we can get all the details up front without going through the troubleshooting guide Jun 18 21:02:14 http://opensource.palm.com/packages.html has just been released ... Jun 18 21:02:38 bpadalino, http://webos.pastebin.com/d2994be8b Jun 18 21:03:04 rwhitby - ooh, nice Jun 18 21:03:07 ooh, dbus patches! Jun 18 21:03:07 wow: http://opensource.palm.com/ Jun 18 21:03:24 THANKS RWHITBY Jun 18 21:03:30 nice Jun 18 21:03:40 sloppyjm: thank Palm, not me :-) Jun 18 21:04:25 http://opensource.palm.com/ Jun 18 21:04:26 jterhune, yeah - it looks like novacomd is not running on port 6968 Jun 18 21:04:53 bpadalino, let me do a netstat real quick Jun 18 21:05:11 sweet Jun 18 21:06:15 bpadalino, it doesn't look like I have anything listening on 6968... how do I fix that? Jun 18 21:06:37 webos includes a native CIFS client? Jun 18 21:06:54 jterhune, unplug your pre and plug it back in .. or make sure novacomd is running .. Jun 18 21:07:02 http://opensource.palm.com/packages.html Jun 18 21:07:14 bpadalino, is novacomd a service? Jun 18 21:07:50 jterhune, you should see it running as a process in your process manager Jun 18 21:07:55 task manager Jun 18 21:08:18 Now I really want an LP8501 datasheet. Jun 18 21:08:24 bpadalino, I don't, where does it install to so that I can relaunch it? Jun 18 21:08:55 jterhune, i don't know - i don't have a windows machine at my disposal with it installed .. did you install the service from the .msi ? Jun 18 21:09:08 bpadalino, yes, through the msi Jun 18 21:09:14 ah Jun 18 21:10:42 jblebrun: looks like the driver is in the kernel patch set Jun 18 21:11:49 config LEDS_LP8501 Jun 18 21:11:49 tristate "LED Support for NS LP8501 controlled LEDs" Jun 18 21:12:06 roxfan: Yes, I know. That's why I want the datasheet. Jun 18 21:12:10 bpadalino, victory! that was it. Thanks so much for the help Jun 18 21:13:01 jterhune, you're welcome - and congrats Jun 18 21:14:36 So anyone know how to remove openssh on the Pre? I accidently installed both and want to safely remove it. Jun 18 21:15:10 I want to reprogram that bugger Jun 18 21:15:23 deesugar: log in via telnet or novaterm, ipkg-opt remove openssh, remove the upstart script. Jun 18 21:16:05 did you see - they open sourced some of their components Jun 18 21:16:08 palmipc being one of them Jun 18 21:16:41 bpadalino|work: too busy mirroring the whole set at the moment Jun 18 21:16:46 hehe Jun 18 21:17:03 rwhitby you the man, thanks! Jun 18 21:17:05 rwhitby: thanks :-) Jun 18 21:17:30 Anyone found out where NAI is? Why has it been so hard to enable it? Jun 18 21:17:31 ok i screw somethign up Jun 18 21:17:39 um i changed a t to a l Jun 18 21:17:45 how do i fix Jun 18 21:18:25 bpadalino, I may have spoke too soon.... talk.py executes, but I can't telnet in Jun 18 21:18:33 Nmv that hahaha Jun 18 21:18:53 has anyone had any luck finding a verizon prl? Jun 18 21:19:53 dug: please read http://predev.wikidot.com/webos-internals-irc-channel-policy Jun 18 21:20:00 gotcha... Jun 18 21:20:29 Dug http://www.corolada.com/prl/ for latest Jun 18 21:20:52 jterhune, interesting .. Jun 18 21:20:57 Oops sorry rwhitby Jun 18 21:21:01 deesugar: thanks Jun 18 21:21:22 bpadalino, should I try over bluetooth PAN instead of wifi? Jun 18 21:22:36 jterhune, i don't think you understand what's happening .. Jun 18 21:22:39 bpadalino, I got it. Ignore previous question :) Jun 18 21:22:45 jterhune, oh - ok Jun 18 21:26:44 ha, the only changes to wireless_tools was to change the man page installation :P Jun 18 21:26:48 nice, cy8mrln driver decently commented Jun 18 21:27:55 is that the cypress device driver for the touch screen ? Jun 18 21:28:14 yep Jun 18 21:28:51 neato Jun 18 21:29:02 anyone notice the vpnc code in the OSS release? is there some way to set up a VPN connection in webos? Jun 18 21:29:30 I wish that hidd would be opened up, I'm interested in those sockets too :-/ Jun 18 21:29:38 i'd like someone to profile the boot process and see what takes so long Jun 18 21:30:17 someone should also write a dbus sniffer which will iterate over the dbus connections, and find all the methods available to us Jun 18 21:30:24 it would probably be VERY VERY helpful Jun 18 21:30:46 qdbus does this - but needs to be compiled Jun 18 21:32:40 Full set of files from the palm opensource site is 164MB. Jun 18 21:33:02 not too bad Jun 18 21:33:15 LunaSysMgr takes like a 45secs-minute to start up for me... the kernel is pretty quick to boot Jun 18 21:33:46 so it's all in luna, huh ? Jun 18 21:33:54 run oprofile on luna and see what the hog is Jun 18 21:34:44 bpadalino: There are dbus python bindings in optware, it might be easier to just write a simple python script Jun 18 21:36:10 bpadalino: http://lucumr.pocoo.org/2007/6/13/dbus-introspection Jun 18 21:36:14 i tried using their java library - but it gave me a connection error :( Jun 18 21:36:33 Oh. Jun 18 21:36:53 damn... lack of apps coupled with siriusxm streaming app on the iphone is making me twitch for the 3gs :/ Jun 18 21:37:16 need... games... to... validate... purchase... Jun 18 21:37:34 rwhitby would gladly purchase your pre for a heavily discounted price :P Jun 18 21:37:35 stupid classic not working Jun 18 21:38:00 bahaha, i wouldnt return mine... I'd just go and buy a 3gs. duh. Jun 18 21:38:18 ooohh Jun 18 21:38:28 I'm a DINK. Cash to burn Jun 18 21:38:31 ;) Jun 18 21:38:40 Darth_Pooh: I'm guessing the pre will catch up and start to outrun the 3G pretty soon. Jun 18 21:38:50 destinal, indeed... just making convo Jun 18 21:39:13 I just ported off my original ~2 year old 2g iphone Jun 18 21:39:34 seriously considered a 3gs before I saw webos-internals. :) Jun 18 21:39:41 my 2g and 3g are just sitting over there on the shelf. Jun 18 21:39:56 so many phones Jun 18 21:39:59 ok, so we have the busybox config now ... Jun 18 21:40:08 my Treo Pro and Pre are sitting in front of me. Jun 18 21:40:08 I'd consider an iphone if AT&T had 3g coverage here :-p Jun 18 21:40:18 Someone should fix that off-by-one busybox help issue ;-) Jun 18 21:40:43 I have too many phones too... Jun 18 21:40:47 and somewhere in a drawer, I have about a dozen other phones just.... being there. Jun 18 21:40:54 md wanna send me some Jun 18 21:40:55 they're using cairo - which is interesting .. Jun 18 21:41:00 jk hahah Jun 18 21:41:16 eno: ping Jun 18 21:41:18 mogul, apache, moto q's, treo's both wm and pos Jun 18 21:41:30 to any palm people: the opensource.palm.com dump of WebCore (LGPL) isn't complete; the "patch" was configured to just print "Only in" for new files Jun 18 21:41:32 eno: we've got the Pre kernel source, so we can now start making kernel modules for Optware. Jun 18 21:41:35 I have an illness. Jun 18 21:41:43 for some reason everyone bitches about sprint, but it's like the best coverage in my area... first network with evdo here, never any problems... Jun 18 21:42:12 same here for me... cept for the Pre and it's signal jumpiness Jun 18 21:42:21 yeah one of sprint's old sales angles was good - "if it works where you do, who cares" Jun 18 21:42:22 it's like bipolar Jun 18 21:42:33 Darth_Pooh signal jumpiness could be the fault of too accurate a signal meter ;) Jun 18 21:42:35 The lp8501 is exciting me Jun 18 21:42:37 I have a LED fetish Jun 18 21:42:43 most phones do these lame normalizing routines so users don't freak out at bouncing bars Jun 18 21:42:43 don't get too excited Jun 18 21:42:45 lp8501 driver, that is Jun 18 21:42:47 agentsmith, damn it, I want LESS accurate! Jun 18 21:42:52 haha Jun 18 21:43:09 kernel patch applies :-) Jun 18 21:43:13 AgentSmith, it's based on RSSI - which is silly for CDMA Jun 18 21:43:17 actually, I think it is good in theory but bad on battery life as it strains itself a little too much Jun 18 21:43:29 yeah EC/i0 would be a little more useful Jun 18 21:43:33 rwhitby: Maybe I'll fix some webkit rendering errors :-D Jun 18 21:44:01 ive noticed some flickering of webkit... when pages refresh/reload Jun 18 21:44:21 makes a beautiful screen all crapperific Jun 18 21:44:35 (TM) Jun 18 21:44:38 arch/arm/mach-omap3pe Jun 18 21:44:41 I'll know to ignore the RSSI readout then and remember somewhere under the hood it's looking at EC/i0 heehehe Jun 18 21:44:46 if they ever swap my device Jun 18 21:44:53 awesome. the more patches we push back upstream the happier palm should be that it went open source. :) Jun 18 21:45:11 ETA on the next update? Jun 18 21:45:22 end of this week or next possibly? Jun 18 21:46:36 i need my damn calorie counting program on my phone too. Jun 18 21:46:42 using google docs sucks Jun 18 21:47:51 rwhitby: It looks like the python dbus bindings in optware are compiled with diffrent settings than the actual interpreter, unless I'm missing something... Jun 18 21:48:08 could we use iphone apps on our phoen some how like an iphone app emulator Jun 18 21:48:10 hey recommend adding nano to the basic linux wiki page as an alternative to vi. Jun 18 21:48:16 jblebrun: dunno - ask eno Jun 18 21:48:19 Back from an appointment. Guys, when someone trys to do the drag-menus and gets the whitebar at the top of the screen, it also causes the phone to not respond to plugging in the USB cable. The USB action scripts (charge only etc) are in bar-assistant.js. Jun 18 21:48:54 so, when you whitebar the phone, not only do you lose the bar, you lose USB functions. Which is why it is VERY IMPORTANT to backup bar-assistant.js before modding it. Jun 18 21:49:12 I noticed that happend to someone else about an hour ago.... (Seekis) Jun 18 21:49:20 arch/arm/mach-omap3pe/board-sirloin-3430.c has the good stuff Jun 18 21:49:33 sloppyjm: uh, theoretically, but it's a hard hack(TM) -- i'd be more interested in a davlik jvm to run android apps in Jun 18 21:49:41 meaty Jun 18 21:49:58 oh ok Jun 18 21:50:14 mainly because it's a lot more practical Jun 18 21:50:47 well i dnt knwo much about android Jun 18 21:50:55 neither coding so yeha Jun 18 21:52:12 Seven revs of the phone before production ... Jun 18 21:52:24 rwhitby, where di dyou find that info ? Jun 18 21:52:34 sloppyjm: even if they were the same ARM processor (don't know about that) you'd need something like a WINE to handle all the library calls, and then stuff that talks to native iphone specific hardware would break. running an actual iphone emulator inside the phone, even considering the effort of writing one, would be painfully slow Jun 18 21:53:10 bpadalino|work: arch/arm/mach-omap3pe/board-sirloin-3430.c, line 144 Jun 18 21:53:17 interesting Jun 18 21:53:35 well, seven revs that they cared enough about to specify a boardtype. Jun 18 21:54:23 modem is on uart1 Jun 18 21:55:16 keyboard is on i2c, maxim7359 Jun 18 21:55:31 rwhitby: modem is also on usb Jun 18 21:55:36 * stefan_schmidt guesses for data Jun 18 21:56:03 * rwhitby agrees Jun 18 21:56:14 MODULE_PARM_DESC(use_qc, "Use Qualcomm modem emulation, 0=no, 1=yes, default=yes"); Jun 18 21:56:37 Ha, so you can indeed switch between the quallcom binary protocol and the AT emulation Jun 18 21:57:06 * rwhitby wonders what "optical slider" is, on gpio 137 Jun 18 21:57:17 Sadly no dual port ram setup. This will not help me for my qualcomm modem at the omnia Jun 18 21:58:50 oh look .. a .wakeup in the structure Jun 18 21:58:56 for volumeup and down Jun 18 21:59:04 leds chip changed from maxim8831 to lp8501 during development ... Jun 18 22:01:13 oh, it's already 6pm Jun 18 22:01:17 i should probably leave work Jun 18 22:01:57 hehe -- i like the phone ascii art Jun 18 22:02:20 * rwhitby guesses the video out from omap is available somewhere on the board for when they did the Palm demos - the kernel has support for it Jun 18 22:03:50 rwhitby, are you writing up notes for the wiki ? Jun 18 22:04:26 bpadalino|work: nope, I'm a bad example. Jun 18 22:04:30 :( Jun 18 22:04:57 Whats it mean when it says comment out lines Jun 18 22:05:05 957 files changed, 328390 insertions(+), 4556 deletions(-) Now that is a _big_ patch Jun 18 22:05:20 Well, with all the TI, nokia and KGDB stuff included Jun 18 22:05:27 stefan_schmidt: looks like it contains a generic omap3 patch in it Jun 18 22:05:52 it will be good to work out which omap3 patch has been included and separate out the palm mods Jun 18 22:06:45 rwhitby: It will be no fun work I would say. How much patches are already mainline since .24 and how much did they change? :) Jun 18 22:07:32 When it says comment out lines whats that mena Jun 18 22:07:41 home time Jun 18 22:08:13 bpadalino: the IRC logs are notes :-P Jun 18 22:08:16 So I tried to remove OpenSSH but when I use "ipkg-opt remove openssh" I get a "not found" but I can see all the openssh directories. Anyone?? Jun 18 22:08:31 * stefan_schmidt wonders what the way will be from here. Will Palm keep the process of code drops or will they try to form a community on a lower level then js/html/css apps Jun 18 22:09:16 HELP someone Jun 18 22:09:45 sloppyjm: what google searches have you done to help yourself first? Jun 18 22:10:08 Um well you guys ade the tutorial why not ask the source Jun 18 22:10:10 sloppyjm: come over to preguides, we can try to help you real quick. These guys are diving into patch sources. Jun 18 22:10:27 sloppyjm: cause if 300 people ask the source, then the source stops working on new things Jun 18 22:10:49 sloppyjm: it's nothing personal, it's just time allocation that's all. Jun 18 22:11:07 drnull: thx Jun 18 22:11:48 * rwhitby loves the guys in #preguides for what they are doing Jun 18 22:12:18 rwhitby: np, it'll free up the kernel nuts to have their fun in here. Jun 18 22:12:58 can someone please look for 'nduid' in /sys somewhere? Jun 18 22:14:03 rwitby sorry for the bug Jun 18 22:14:32 hmm - they hard-code the atags in machine_fixup Jun 18 22:16:04 heh - last minute change on headset detect polarity :-) Jun 18 22:16:19 hehe, word of warning... don't execute "grep -Isri nduid ." from /sys Jun 18 22:16:19 well, maybe not last minute. Jun 18 22:16:40 :( no kexec support Jun 18 22:16:40 pretty palm logo. Jun 18 22:17:31 can anyone confirm that the /proc/config.gz on the device matches arch/arm/configs/omap_sirloin_3430_defconfig ? Jun 18 22:18:01 alternatively, can someone pastebin an unzipped /proc/config.gz from their device? Jun 18 22:18:47 If I currently have dropbear for ssh installed using the orginal ipkg method (as per the orginal ssh instructions on the wiki), rather than via ipkg-opt, what is the best way to me to move to the new ipkg-opt method? Jun 18 22:19:07 rwhitby: kernel source, that's great Jun 18 22:19:21 I'd basically like to reverse everything I did orginally via ipkg so that the next OTA update doesn't mess anything up. Jun 18 22:19:56 barlo: /usr/bin/ipkg remove dropbear Jun 18 22:20:46 if I do that while connected to a SSH session, I'd lose the session correct? So I'd have to use novacomm/dev mode to go back and start over? Jun 18 22:21:30 barlo: best way is to reflash with the webOS Doctor and start from scratch Jun 18 22:22:27 rwhitby: I was afaird that would be the best way - but I guess the only things that aren't backed up on the Palm profile are the applications, right? Everything else is backed up? Jun 18 22:23:37 barlo: dunno. I don't have a Pre. Check with others before doing it. Jun 18 22:23:59 hmm, the ping -n -1 to keep the radio on seems to work for me....interesting that it doesn't for others Jun 18 22:24:30 rwhitby: ah, ok. Thanks for the info, though. Jun 18 22:25:38 exit Jun 18 22:25:42 opps Jun 18 22:25:43 bye Jun 18 22:25:44 rwhitby: config.gz http://webos.pastebin.com/m1740e313 Jun 18 22:27:23 drnull: that matches - thanks! Jun 18 22:27:46 eno: arch/arm/configs/omap_sirloin_3430_defconfig Jun 18 22:27:58 eno: I believe found a problem with one of the Optware packages. Do packages have maintainers, or should I just attempt to fix it myself? Jun 18 22:28:23 jblebrun: check the svn history at http://trac.nslu2-linux.org/optware Jun 18 22:28:30 jblebrun: depends on the MAINTAINER field Jun 18 22:28:55 jblebrun: we'd be happy to give you commit access to fix it yourself. Jun 18 22:29:03 if it's nslu2-linux@yahoogroups.com, then all developers are free to fix Jun 18 22:32:34 heh, with a diff -w the diff is indeed small :) Jun 18 22:32:36 +CONFIG_OE_BUILD_INFO=y Jun 18 22:32:36 +CONFIG_OE_BUILD_INFO_STRING="Submission 175.1.15." Jun 18 22:32:49 * stefan_schmidt is happy to see OE used for the pre :) Jun 18 22:33:50 Ok, looks like it'll be me fixing it :-) Jun 18 22:34:31 * rwhitby is hoping we'll get some fresh blood for Optware developers in this channel ... Jun 18 22:37:40 So if I need to recompile something, I should use the codesourcery 2008q1 toolchain, correct? Jun 18 22:37:48 (For this particular repo) Jun 18 22:38:13 jblebrun: assuming you're on Linux, we download the right toolchain Jun 18 22:38:27 jblebrun: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/AddAPackageToOptware Jun 18 22:38:44 yes, 2008q1 is what we are using Jun 18 22:39:22 Ok, great Jun 18 22:39:51 jblebrun: 1) svn co ...; 2) cd optware; make cs08q1armel-target; 3) cd cs08q1armel; make directories ipkg-utils toolchain Jun 18 22:39:58 4) make hello-ipk Jun 18 22:42:03 techcrunch really hates anything !Apple Jun 18 22:42:24 they are pooh'ing all over the lack of downloads on the Pre app catalog Jun 18 22:42:49 TechCrunch is a giant pile of douchebaggery Jun 18 22:43:18 completely Jun 18 22:43:34 clearly fanboys of Apple Jun 18 22:45:06 their comparison is really lame Jun 18 22:45:40 eno: Fantastic. Thanks. Jun 18 22:47:31 hrm Jun 18 22:48:42 techcrunch is a show for consumers Jun 18 22:48:50 not a show for IT people Jun 18 22:49:36 i am still impressed with what palm has done in 18 months Jun 18 22:49:57 * hemna agrees Jun 18 22:52:37 did we port doom 3 to the pre yet? Jun 18 22:53:12 I'm frustrated by the new Apple copy+paste Jun 18 22:53:15 It even copies pictures Jun 18 22:53:17 Grrrr. Jun 18 22:54:54 so thats a no, then Jun 18 22:55:00 * ShinAli goes back to vegetate Jun 18 22:55:22 ShinAli: Get nebula to do it ;-) Jun 18 22:57:15 does android run X? Jun 18 22:57:34 or is also a custom gui Jun 18 23:01:25 * rwhitby bbl Jun 18 23:02:43 it's also a custom gui of sorts Jun 18 23:14:02 after i've already configured dropbear to only accept connections over wifi, how do i go back and set it to allow connections over evdo? Jun 18 23:14:17 you gotta mod the event script Jun 18 23:14:27 bifflechips, join #preguides Jun 18 23:14:33 we can talk about it there Jun 18 23:14:48 thank you :) Jun 18 23:23:52 quiet in here Jun 18 23:24:45 * Lurking_Grue drops a pin. Jun 18 23:24:51 Kaerey: Everyone's scouring the Palm source patches :-) Jun 18 23:25:05 Source patches? Jun 18 23:25:16 Did I miss something today? Jun 18 23:25:20 how do i delete users from my phone? i am rooted in and i created alot of users by mistake Jun 18 23:25:25 They released their patches to open source code that's on the device. Jun 18 23:25:31 i tried userdel user Jun 18 23:25:32 Ah! Jun 18 23:25:35 http://opensource.palm.com/packages.html Jun 18 23:26:59 Has anything interesting come out of it yet? Jun 18 23:28:22 wb, chrisa Jun 18 23:28:43 Find yourself a datasheet yet? Jun 18 23:29:08 No :-( Jun 18 23:29:11 I haven't tried super hard Jun 18 23:29:18 datasheet for what Jun 18 23:29:32 i've got one for the power management chip that also handles audio Jun 18 23:29:41 nebula: the LP8501 Jun 18 23:29:42 swcu052c.pdf Jun 18 23:29:51 which chip is that now? Jun 18 23:30:00 oh shit they finally released them?? Jun 18 23:30:05 I think our hardware guy could make a legitimate request for it :-) Jun 18 23:30:06 eff yes Jun 18 23:30:09 nebula: LED controller Jun 18 23:30:29 nebula: It's got some microcode engines on for making little fade programs and whatnot. Jun 18 23:30:49 help me figure out a2dp ;) Jun 18 23:31:10 I poked around, it sounds like drivers linked into the kernel will be released with the OSS stuff Jun 18 23:32:08 chrisa: tell damian k. to return my facebook message ;) Jun 18 23:32:11 heh Jun 18 23:32:20 chrisa: You talking about the patch code at opensource.palm.com? Jun 18 23:32:24 It was hard enough for me to get him to return my emails Jun 18 23:32:35 lol, i guess i can forget that then ;) Jun 18 23:32:39 jblebrun: yes, but I wasn't going to say it Jun 18 23:33:27 chrisa: Maybe someone could conveniently include all of the relevant datasheet info as code comments ;-) Jun 18 23:33:52 You could just email NS and ask Jun 18 23:34:06 Yeah, I should just do that Jun 18 23:34:12 how do i delete users from my phone? i am rooted in and i created alot of users by mistake Jun 18 23:34:14 i tried userdel user Jun 18 23:34:16 We're actually working on a product that it could feasibly go in Jun 18 23:35:00 chrisa: did you do any work with PmBtEngine? Jun 18 23:35:29 nope Jun 18 23:35:31 i'm trying to figure out the bitpool settings Jun 18 23:35:58 chrisa is the janitor remember... :) Jun 18 23:36:06 ya Jun 18 23:36:16 Anyone that's run WebOS doctor have any idea why it wouldn't recognize my Pre? It goes through the first couple screens and then prompts me to connect the Pre. At that point it just sits there. Windows is recognizing it as a usb device, though... Jun 18 23:36:53 is the pre in dev mode? Jun 18 23:36:59 nope Jun 18 23:37:10 hmm not sure if that matters though Jun 18 23:37:17 cause if you eff it up, how can you get into dev mode Jun 18 23:37:24 the "next" button in the doctor just remains grey and disabled, even though it's connected via usb, and the battery is charged to 100% Jun 18 23:37:36 try to unplug and replug Jun 18 23:37:41 you may also simply try rebooting windows Jun 18 23:37:47 I've tried that, and rebooting :) Jun 18 23:37:51 I had a prob when I first got the pre that the usb driver failed to recognize it Jun 18 23:38:00 rebooting windows fixed that Jun 18 23:38:21 Could delete it from device manager and try plugging it back in. Jun 18 23:38:27 I was thinking of maybe uninstalling the novacom driver that I had previously installed to initally root it? But I'm guessing the doctor just automatically installs that driver when it runs.. Jun 18 23:38:41 what is the command to remove users? Jun 18 23:38:46 why are you trying to run the doctor? Jun 18 23:38:51 Lurking_Gure: that's one thing I haven't tried yet...let me see if it works Jun 18 23:38:52 usedel Jun 18 23:38:58 userdel* Jun 18 23:39:06 but you probably don't have path set right abcdefg Jun 18 23:39:06 userdel doesn't work Jun 18 23:39:11 so you need the full path to userdel Jun 18 23:39:17 which is what? /sbin/userdel? Jun 18 23:39:29 retry: I want to reset everything back to the factory defaults since I had initalled rooted and installed ssh access using ipkg instead of ipkg-opt, and I don't want any problems when the next OTA comes through Jun 18 23:39:33 Could just do it the dangrous way and vi /etc/passwd Jun 18 23:39:47 hmm Jun 18 23:39:50 let me try Jun 18 23:39:57 heh vi /etc/passwd...that won't do much Jun 18 23:40:30 Perhaps not the best advice. Jun 18 23:40:58 how do you generate a pub/pri key pair using the pre? Jun 18 23:41:51 keygen? Jun 18 23:42:28 czarphanguye: ipkg-opt files dropbear Jun 18 23:42:35 should be in there Jun 18 23:43:10 czarphanguye: please write a wiki page on how to do it, so the general security of Pre access can be improved Jun 18 23:43:33 Ah. /opt/sbin/dropbearkey, ty Jun 18 23:45:30 rwhitby: Ok Jun 18 23:45:43 how do i get to the path of userdel Jun 18 23:45:50 it's not /sbin/userdel Jun 18 23:46:33 abcdefg: type 'busybox', and look for the correct command in there Jun 18 23:47:23 rwhitby, security improved how? Jun 18 23:47:42 retry: less risk of poor passwords if people use ssh keys instead Jun 18 23:47:52 hmm i guess Jun 18 23:48:19 retry: BTW, dropbear does scp and sftp fine, you don't need openssh for that (reading backlog from last night) Jun 18 23:48:25 if you block ssh to ppp though shouldn't be too much Jun 18 23:48:37 oh Jun 18 23:48:45 what about proxying? Jun 18 23:49:01 userdel doesn't show up there Jun 18 23:49:08 might it be "rm"? Jun 18 23:49:14 dropbear does port forwarding if that's what you mean. Jun 18 23:49:16 no rm is for files Jun 18 23:49:24 hmm Jun 18 23:49:31 so what's the tradeoff with dropbear then Jun 18 23:49:54 retry: the only one I know of is authentication agent forwarding on the outbound client side Jun 18 23:50:39 can one of you linux-y gods answer a question for me when you have a few minutes. My new Pre is at the store waiting for me to pick it up tomorrow, can I just dd my root filesystem and then after i do setup and root the new one dd-restore it? Jun 18 23:50:57 and if so, what might my command line look like? :) Jun 18 23:51:18 mike_w: what will you be booted with while you've got the rootfs unmounted to do the dd? Jun 18 23:51:24 I was wondering about partimage myself... Jun 18 23:51:26 Hello Jun 18 23:51:42 on the PaulDotCom podcast NOW -- getting ready to talk about Pre hacking! Jun 18 23:51:54 without an alternate boot device, it's pretty hard to dd to the rootfs Jun 18 23:51:54 mike_wx, you're not rooting it, you're just setting it up with ssh so you can easily connect to the shell without having to do all the dev steps Jun 18 23:52:13 if you want to back it up, just tarball it Jun 18 23:52:33 wanted to say thanks everyone for all the helps and such Jun 18 23:52:50 also you have to 'root' it before you could dd it anyway Jun 18 23:52:52 retry: true Jun 18 23:53:01 Okay, so it seems that in order for me to get webos doctor to work I had to remove Novacom, put the pre into dev mode, then restart the doctor and allow it to reinstall Novacom again - then everything worked perfectly. Jun 18 23:53:05 it's really nothing like rooting an iphone Jun 18 23:53:12 this is not a crack ....at all Jun 18 23:53:16 if I tar the root fs though I'll get the mounts like /media/internal though no? Jun 18 23:53:23 you can use --exclude Jun 18 23:53:33 actually the tar on busybox is incredibly limited it seems Jun 18 23:53:37 but it should support --exclude Jun 18 23:53:39 It wouldn't make much sense for the pre to need to be in dev mode to use webos doctor though...very strange Jun 18 23:53:45 What would be the issue with dd-ing a volume mounted as read only? Jun 18 23:53:56 retry: can always ipkg-opt install tar for a real one Jun 18 23:53:58 not everything is mounted ro Jun 18 23:54:09 yeah rwhitby, I was thinking that Jun 18 23:54:17 jblebrun: you don't want to dd to a running partition Jun 18 23:54:27 ah Jun 18 23:54:37 jblebrun: oh, I see / is normally read-only. hmmm. Jun 18 23:54:47 jblebrun: ya know that might just work Jun 18 23:54:49 would /media/internal be all that I would want to exclude then? Jun 18 23:54:56 hell no Jun 18 23:55:00 you'd want to exclude /dev Jun 18 23:55:04 and /proc Jun 18 23:55:09 at probably a few other things Jun 18 23:55:15 the in memory file systems too Jun 18 23:55:20 Are there any writes to something mounted ro,noatime ? Jun 18 23:55:23 /tmp is mounted to ram Jun 18 23:55:35 abcdefg: there is no command for deleting users on the Pre - you have to do it manually using vi I'm afraid. Jun 18 23:55:35 jblebrun, how could there be? Jun 18 23:55:50 That's what I was asking :-) Jun 18 23:55:51 abcdefg: you should be able to find stuff on Google about /etc/passwd Jun 18 23:56:06 wow no userdel ? Jun 18 23:56:14 let me try Jun 18 23:56:15 not in busybox on the Pre. Jun 18 23:56:22 can you install it from opt? Jun 18 23:56:26 sure Jun 18 23:56:36 will it work on the root system though? Jun 18 23:56:46 or will it attempt to use /opt/etc and so forth? Jun 18 23:56:53 UTSL :-) Jun 18 23:57:02 eh? Jun 18 23:57:15 (dunno of the top of my head, Use The Source, Luke.) Jun 18 23:57:21 oh Jun 18 23:57:57 rwhitby: /win 10 Jun 18 23:57:59 oops Jun 18 23:58:01 :-) Jun 18 23:58:10 so I prolly can't do that for backup/restore than is what i'm gathering :( Jun 18 23:58:41 mike_w: tarball /var/opt, and use quilt for other source mods in the future. Jun 18 23:58:57 quilt? Jun 19 00:00:00 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quilt_(software) Jun 19 00:01:33 Howdy gents Jun 19 00:01:57 thank you rwhitby Jun 19 00:02:18 you can also install git, hg, or bzr on the device Jun 19 00:02:24 I DID IT!!! I DID IT!!! File Picking from within Sounds and Alerts App for "Alerts" and "Notifications" Jun 19 00:02:28 mike_wx: we're considering using quilt for distributing and applying source level patches to the Palm code Jun 19 00:02:28 everthing was about vipw Jun 19 00:02:33 Kaerey: Wiki page! Jun 19 00:02:36 My first solo-ish hack Jun 19 00:02:38 couldn't find anything on vi Jun 19 00:02:43 Kaerey: Rock on! Jun 19 00:02:49 jblebrun.. you're the -ish Jun 19 00:02:57 what if i run vi /etc/passwd Jun 19 00:02:59 ? Jun 19 00:03:05 Kaerey, now for the real fun part: the wiki write up Jun 19 00:03:29 me, too! Jun 19 00:03:36 irssi, though Jun 19 00:04:08 no shit. it's not too hard, but I would never try and do it in VI Jun 19 00:06:59 what are people using for sftp on osx, anything like winscp around? Jun 19 00:07:17 Kaerey: Awesome! you just saved me the work... Jun 19 00:07:21 That's what I was gonna work on tonight Jun 19 00:07:26 sftp maybe? Jun 19 00:07:27 ahh damn it email sounds and text sounds are still the same Jun 19 00:07:28 Have you updated the Wiki yet? Jun 19 00:07:32 .. but at least I can pick it. Jun 19 00:07:43 ya.. there's no difference between the two in the references of the OS Jun 19 00:07:53 opie_: does osx do sshfs:// ? Jun 19 00:08:14 opie_: try cyberduck : http://cyberduck.ch/ Jun 19 00:08:24 isn't sftp installed with openssh? or whatever osx has installed? Jun 19 00:08:36 yes.. sftp and scp are both operational with OS X Jun 19 00:09:08 at least from the command line Jun 19 00:11:37 linuxkidd when you do your changes via ssh what sound is played when you 1) charge/touchstone 2) recieve text and 3) recieve email. alerttone or notificationtone? Jun 19 00:12:17 2/3 -> notificationtone Jun 19 00:12:19 checking 1 now Jun 19 00:13:18 hm.. I want seperate sounds for email and text.. time to work on that. Jun 19 00:13:19 1-> notificationtone Jun 19 00:13:28 Agreed.. Jun 19 00:13:34 then what triggers alerttone? Jun 19 00:13:58 I'm guessing the warnings for stuff like when you connect to PAN and it says you're not allowed by sprint Jun 19 00:14:08 ahh. good call. Jun 19 00:14:12 Or, maybe the notice of low battery... etc Jun 19 00:14:44 Kaerey: You got that mod write up yet for full browse of alert/notification tone? Jun 19 00:14:47 lol Jun 19 00:15:45 not written up yet. modding my wife's phone. I ignored her enough last night that she was bitching at me "well if you finally got it done.. fix mine" Jun 19 00:15:56 ROFL Jun 19 00:15:58 nice Jun 19 00:16:04 So, as you do it.. write it up.. LOL Jun 19 00:20:13 careful Kaerey, she might read the logs Jun 19 00:20:21 :) Jun 19 00:21:30 LOL at least I can somewhat raid in peace tonight. my guild got a little pissed when I missed almost every single ready check cause I was searching code and writing shit last night Jun 19 00:23:00 lets see Jun 19 00:23:14 sshfs, so what can i just mount it or something? Jun 19 00:26:20 is there a program where i can look at the original files and the patched version of the files at the same time? Jun 19 00:26:33 for OSX, anyways Jun 19 00:27:04 diff ... or some variant there of Jun 19 00:27:47 or, more barbarically, two editor windows side-by-side? Jun 19 00:28:05 you're right, that is barbaric Jun 19 00:28:12 or is that not something you can do with a Mac? :P Jun 19 00:28:20 I'm sure there's a visual diff program for os x Jun 19 00:36:55 hey can someone tell me how to send files via bluetooth? Jun 19 00:39:02 whoever wrote that .pdf tips & tricks needs to redo it Jun 19 00:39:09 Copy/Paste IS NOT [SYM] + C/X/V it is [Hold Gesture Area] + C/X/V. Jun 19 00:39:37 Pre so far hasn't been enabled with OBEX which is required for sending file via bluetooth.. Jun 19 00:39:43 it DOES however support PAN Jun 19 00:39:57 and w/ a rooted Pre, you can use SFTP or SCP to copy files via Bluetooth.. Jun 19 00:40:59 how does PAN work? Jun 19 00:41:34 PAN is short for Personal Area Network Jun 19 00:41:53 w/ bluetooth, you connect to that service, and from windows at least, they setup their own 10. network Jun 19 00:42:06 So, you have an IP network running over bluetooth Jun 19 00:42:14 Is there any Sprint reps in here? Jun 19 00:42:25 hope not! LOL Jun 19 00:42:29 i work for sprint as a tech not a rep Jun 19 00:42:34 if that helps lol Jun 19 00:42:35 if there was i would ban them Jun 19 00:42:39 If there are... they should be taking notes.. :) Jun 19 00:42:53 eh... we're all here to help out... Jun 19 00:43:23 Sprint aholes sent me a AIRAVE and didn't activate the damn thing before shipping it like the manual says they are supposed to do Jun 19 00:43:25 I'd be surprised if some of the code we change on the predev site doesn't end up in the next release Jun 19 00:43:37 I don't have cell reception at my house so how am i supposed to activate the damn thing? Jun 19 00:44:06 Activate a device that gives me reception from a phone that I do not have reception on... ironic eh? Jun 19 00:44:15 cant you call from a landline?

Jun 19 00:50:03 XP Jun 19 00:50:09 wierd Jun 19 00:50:09 has anyone looked over the open source code that was released today? Jun 19 00:50:15 some of it Jun 19 00:50:18 anything useful? Jun 19 00:50:20 nope Jun 19 00:50:23 ill be back if its still broked Jun 19 00:50:24 figured Jun 19 00:50:26 thx again Jun 19 00:50:28 its mainly already open source libraries Jun 19 00:50:29 looks all generic Jun 19 00:50:41 you can get most of it from sourceforge Jun 19 00:50:59 palmIPC is about the only thing cusom made Jun 19 00:51:01 kernel source is *very* useful Jun 19 00:51:14 we're doing Optware kernel modules as we speak ... Jun 19 00:51:15 I'm try'n to find the section of code that calls out the notificationtone for playback when new messages arrive Jun 19 00:51:57 its in the com.palm.messages/app/controllers/notifaction-assistant.js Jun 19 00:52:05 ah.. :) Jun 19 00:53:26 hmm... Jun 19 00:53:38 ok ok ok http://predev.wikidot.com/alerts-from-usb it's on the bottom Jun 19 00:53:47 rwhitby: you're doing optware kernel modules for the kernl extensions Plam gave us? Jun 19 00:54:08 kewl Jun 19 00:54:14 summatusmentis: for the kernel source that we got from Palm Jun 19 00:54:29 it may take a day or two, but should be no problem Jun 19 00:54:30 ah, I see Jun 19 00:54:43 I want either a device or an emulator, so I can get custom kernel modules building Jun 19 00:54:45 thats just for the sound. I want to chnge the default vibration length without having to write extra code Jun 19 00:55:08 Kaerey: Sweet! Gonna apply it now Jun 19 00:55:22 has anybody ever said anything about the long-term effects of leaving the Pre in dev mode? Jun 19 00:55:59 mine had been in dev mode since i heard about it. release day and no issues so far. thats not to say their are none lol Jun 19 00:56:00 you leave yourself open to the world. Jun 19 00:56:30 linuxkidd: as you go along make not of things we need to clarify. Jun 19 00:56:38 np Jun 19 00:57:03 Kaerey, how so? More than just the possible intrusion via ssh? Jun 19 00:59:00 sugardave: I leave mine in devmode all the time Jun 19 00:59:20 sugardave it leaves it open to others who want to get access if they knew you were on the same network/knew your IP etc. Jun 19 01:01:19 leaves you open if you are plugged into a computer with the novacom driver installed Jun 19 01:01:45 ah, well that's not likely, then Jun 19 01:01:48 devmode just starts novacomd is what i understood. if you reboot after you enable telnet your fine (telnet won't be enabled again) Jun 19 01:18:56 is there a way to mount my pc drive to the pre? I was wanting to just cp from the phone to my laptop without having to copy to the /media/internal then connect as usb drive Jun 19 01:19:26 sftp / scp Jun 19 01:19:35 via wireless / bluetooth if ya like Jun 19 01:19:42 yea :-\ i didn't want to install applications and slow the phone down Jun 19 01:20:33 i didn't know if we could make it like an external hd Jun 19 01:21:09 you should be able to do it with samba or cifs, yeah? Jun 19 01:21:22 i'm new to linux so what is that? Jun 19 01:21:33 yay! opensourcequestions@palm.com responded to my WebCore complaint: they are working on "rectifying this matter immediately" and should have a complete diff soon ;P Jun 19 01:21:35 windows network neighborhood Jun 19 01:22:05 what webcore complaint? Jun 19 01:22:26 hola all! Jun 19 01:22:52 I just wanted to let you know that the PDC podcast went well and some folks expressed interest in your work Jun 19 01:22:53 hola Jun 19 01:23:00 hola Jun 19 01:23:13 so thanks for the great writeups and howtos Jun 19 01:23:18 I listened to that today, missed the first part of your talk about Ruby/metasploit Jun 19 01:23:40 if *anyone* is going to defcon, or black hat, please hit us up. I owe ya! Jun 19 01:24:45 sugardave: yeah the ruby MSploit was fun... but I think I'll wait for the official release. there's some odd bugs yet to be quashed. Also, the meterpriter scripts have a long way to go Jun 19 01:24:49 Binarytech: the webcore (lgpl) patch they posted to their website failed to include new files (the diff was missing -N, so it just had "only in") Jun 19 01:25:24 ahh ok Jun 19 01:25:52 the rooting guide should tell people to take their phone out of devmode Jun 19 01:26:01 devmode opens up iptables completely Jun 19 01:26:11 on all interfaces from what I can tell Jun 19 01:26:27 i can see a lot of noobs leaving their phone in devmode at all times Jun 19 01:27:24 retry: can you novaterm in when devmode is off? Jun 19 01:28:12 nope Jun 19 01:28:28 but once you get ssh going you don't need to unless you mess something up Jun 19 01:28:47 point is you're totally exposed even over the sprint network Jun 19 01:29:19 saurik: are the new files that should been included all the palm support files? Jun 19 01:29:23 gulp! thanks for letting me know!! Jun 19 01:29:24 i hope it is so Jun 19 01:29:25 if you are really paranoid you might even want to ifdown pppd while in devmode Jun 19 01:29:30 brb ;-) Jun 19 01:31:48 saurik: give me some good news come on Jun 19 01:32:08 ShinAli: pretty much; you can download the patch and grep for "Only in" to see for yourself; the specific items, however, are all relatively benign: the palm service bridges are pretty much just an IPC model Jun 19 01:32:29 thats what i was guessing Jun 19 01:32:46 but i'm more interested in the graphics part Jun 19 01:33:25 if it has those PG headers, that'd be greeaaaaat Jun 19 01:34:17 that way i'll know exactly what the context i would be dealing with Jun 19 01:40:03 can someone tell me what they get when they du -h -d 1 /extracted_nova-cust-image.castle.rootfs Jun 19 01:45:39 turn it upside down Jun 19 01:45:49 I can see the text there Jun 19 01:47:17 can someone tell me how to send a file via bluetooth in a PAN Jun 19 01:50:38 joesmith: Have you ever used ssh? specifically, scp or sftp ? Jun 19 01:52:03 furan: you took a look at any of the sources? Jun 19 01:52:05 hi Jun 19 01:52:51 misfired earlier Jun 19 01:52:52 not yet Jun 19 01:52:53 busy w/work Jun 19 01:53:19 has anyone figured out how classic app is able to get access to the graphics engine? did they get some higher level access than lets say the SDK would offer? Jun 19 01:53:37 Classic calls a browser plugin with an tag Jun 19 01:53:49 Binarytech: the term you're looking for is lower-level and yes it is assumed so Jun 19 01:53:50 The browser plugin is native compiled Jun 19 01:54:00 gotcha Jun 19 01:54:03 thaanks Jun 19 01:54:32 i notice a few programs use native daemons for data (such as telenav) Jun 19 01:54:33 Palm employees who have been on channel have suggested that the browser plugin headers are given to "selected" developers after approval. Jun 19 01:54:55 which blows Jun 19 01:55:01 it is _possible_ that folks here can reverse engineer the headers. It will not be easy. Jun 19 01:55:26 depends on what they fix on the webcore patch they botched Jun 19 01:55:41 at least that's what i'm hoping Jun 19 01:55:52 The trick will be distinguishing between the hooks into the browser and the "regular" part of emulator. Obviously the emulator code is well-known. Jun 19 01:56:21 i was gonna do some ltrace tonight on the emulator and luna Jun 19 01:56:51 Of course, Adobe has the appropriate binary SDK in order to do a flash plugin. The PDF reader app uses the same tech. Jun 19 01:58:37 Ok my Sounds and Alerts Modification has been confirmed. http://predev.wikidot.com/alerts-from-usb Jun 19 01:59:00 does an actual old-style npapi plugin even load? Jun 19 01:59:12 ls there a null plugin? Jun 19 01:59:36 i've seen a simple hello world type plugin but it uses gtk Jun 19 01:59:41 who was working on the pmux stuff? Jun 19 01:59:44 oh Jun 19 02:00:05 the thing we need to find is what NpWindow wraps Jun 19 02:00:50 yay jeri the trolling is so far down your twitter feed that it doesn't show up on the ustream page. Jun 19 02:00:59 bah Jun 19 02:01:06 I can't use the internets. Jun 19 02:01:09 they're too hard. Jun 19 02:03:59 anyone ever get an aol IP address on their sprint phone? heh Jun 19 02:09:05 Ok, I've verified Kaerey's Alert/Notification GUI code.. made some tweaks, and it ROCKS! Jun 19 02:11:13 Kaerey: you ought to make a diff patch of your mod so it'll be easier for others to modify it Jun 19 02:11:46 that's the suggestion I was about to make Jun 19 02:12:08 lol Jun 19 02:12:14 it's just 3 edits... LOL Jun 19 02:12:16 I have no idea what diff patch means :( Jun 19 02:12:51 it's three edits deep in mission critical files.... and there's a lot of linux newbies around here. Jun 19 02:13:08 :) Jun 19 02:13:18 <-- Linux newbie and I created it Jun 19 02:13:38 diff is a program that shows the differences between two files, it can also make a patches so people could just run it against their original file Jun 19 02:13:49 oh that'd be convienient. Jun 19 02:13:58 Similar to patching bar-assistant.js for the drag menus.... get it broken and you not only whitebar the top bar menus, you disable USB functionality. Jun 19 02:14:37 http://iihm.imag.fr/blanch/howtos/DiffPatch.html Jun 19 02:14:50 l8r all Jun 19 02:14:54 good work Kaerey! Jun 19 02:15:02 I'll look at that after I kill Ignis the Furnace Master. Jun 19 02:15:08 yeah, good job all around Jun 19 02:15:11 >.> Jun 19 02:15:20 Dude never again will I use a control panel Jun 19 02:15:21 -.- Jun 19 02:15:28 for a webserver Jun 19 02:15:41 damn lxadmin Jun 19 02:16:23 oh heck. Consider yourself blessed you are not required to use IIS. Jun 19 02:16:56 Dude I just had to compile 30 or so config files into one readable file Jun 19 02:17:06 because the guy that made the control panel killed himself Jun 19 02:17:07 -.- Jun 19 02:17:41 ick. Jun 19 02:17:45 Which pisses me off because I can't even send an email telling him how shitty this was Jun 19 02:18:13 rip it out and put in Apache? Jun 19 02:18:29 are you kidding me.. my wife just looked at me and asked "did you get the sounds working yet" Jun 19 02:19:32 It was apache >D Rick_ Jun 19 02:19:36 with shitty config files Jun 19 02:19:55 So I rewrote them all over ssh Jun 19 02:19:58 and you beat your chesst and said "Me Super Geek" "Me Rock!" Jun 19 02:19:58 <3 vi Jun 19 02:20:55 That directed towards Kaery Jun 19 02:21:26 just got a reply back from Mitch Allen on 3D graphics APIs, said they're working on it but don't have anything to announce Jun 19 02:21:39 nice Jun 19 02:21:48 early days Jun 19 02:21:55 I have a feeling Palm will really listen to the dev community on WebOS Jun 19 02:21:59 at least for now Jun 19 02:22:05 as they try and fine tune it Jun 19 02:22:22 The only thing we really have to fear is carriers Jun 19 02:23:18 the orielly book only had seven chapters right? Jun 19 02:23:24 i think they just released the eighth Jun 19 02:23:47 nice Jun 19 02:23:54 Wish I had the money to buy it Jun 19 02:24:20 i bought rough cuts when it was announced Jun 19 02:24:51 the author (Mitch Allen) keeps up fairly often in the comments portion of the book Jun 19 02:24:55 Good day Jun 19 02:26:15 Hi all. New Pre owner here. Woot! Jun 19 02:26:15 bash: -.-: command not found Jun 19 02:26:17 lol Jun 19 02:26:18 new chapter is about system and cload services Jun 19 02:26:21 cloud Jun 19 02:26:34 congratz Cache Jun 19 02:26:45 Thx tiv. Jun 19 02:26:58 Anyone try any command line SIP clients yet? Jun 19 02:27:40 I have a desire for an ftp type of client to upload photos directly to my webserver Jun 19 02:27:46 not sure of the possibilites or scope of that. Jun 19 02:28:44 My Pre has a pre-installed app that will allow photo uploads to Facebook and another site, so I'm sure there'll be other photo uploading programs in short order. Jun 19 02:28:53 yeah Jun 19 02:28:54 you can write a servlet on your server that'll except image uploads and write a pre app Jun 19 02:29:04 s/except/accept Jun 19 02:29:15 thats basically want I want, but just directly upload it to my webserver/folder Jun 19 02:29:46 i dunno if there are any FTP functions within mojo Jun 19 02:30:02 what does the Facebook option use? Jun 19 02:30:24 facebook has a bunch of services to take care of that Jun 19 02:30:30 yeah Jun 19 02:30:37 web services Jun 19 02:30:39 i mean Jun 19 02:30:43 yeah, i understand Jun 19 02:31:01 lol of course not specifically ftp to fb Jun 19 02:31:15 conceptually speaking tho, I want to do the same thing Jun 19 02:31:26 just to my own domain/server Jun 19 02:31:51 phone takes great photos, and I have to e-mail them to get them to flickr, or twitpic Jun 19 02:31:51 maybe a POST to a web service, which will automagically put it under the user's account Jun 19 02:32:04 i dunno if facebook has any details on it Jun 19 02:33:48 i make a lot of accidental calls on my phone Jun 19 02:34:24 I hate it. & I need a beltclip/case that lets me keep my headphones in at the same time lol I actually use my phone more than try to hack it, not a huge code/linux type guy. Jun 19 02:36:21 about to try to remove the camera click sound & change the images for the dialpad / pin # in a little bit. Jun 19 02:37:10 * ShinAli is disappointed, doesn't see anything about web workers in Palm's modified webkit Jun 19 02:37:52 did they add anything of interest to you? any hilights? Jun 19 02:38:39 i've been looking at the plugins portion of the code, but i'd know much more if they included all the new header files they've made Jun 19 02:38:58 saurik said they botched up the patch file, so the newer fixed one might have them Jun 19 02:40:50 I just searched the logs, no VoIP info 8-( Jun 19 02:41:08 ShinAli: what do you hope to do with web workers? Jun 19 02:41:51 nothing really, but it brings a multi threaded environment to JS which i support Jun 19 02:41:59 I see the 'Basic Linux Use' section in the wiki.... Kinda scetchy people learning to use linux on a pre lol Jun 19 02:42:09 botched patch? palm already starting to push an update? Jun 19 02:42:12 they're more like processes than threads. No shared code. Jun 19 02:42:16 I mean shared data Jun 19 02:42:43 psykoz: saurik says he got a reply from them that they'll fix it ASAP Jun 19 02:43:12 Well, i used the linux portions of the site to keep me refreshed on my command lines, Jun 19 02:43:20 i considered it semi helpful Jun 19 02:43:29 It woudl be nice to figure out how to register a service with Mojo. Jun 19 02:43:31 I don't often use command lines much Jun 19 02:43:41 robo: what do you mean? they can't share variables or dbs? Jun 19 02:43:45 I'm more talking about those who have never used before Jun 19 02:43:46 lol don't bash the news help resources Jun 19 02:44:02 variables, no. html5 databases, yes Jun 19 02:44:05 yeah, i do have "some" experience though, just not much Jun 19 02:44:09 according to the spec Jun 19 02:44:23 haven't played with any implementations to check Jun 19 02:44:30 me neither Jun 19 02:44:32 they also can't access the DOM Jun 19 02:44:40 was about to ask that, dang Jun 19 02:48:43 Hmm - we should be able to drop an optware profile in /etc/profile.d/optware Jun 19 02:48:56 PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin Jun 19 02:49:03 if [ "`id -u`" -eq 0 ]; then Jun 19 02:49:13 PATH=$PATH:/opt/sbin Jun 19 02:49:14 fi Jun 19 02:49:34 what shell sources that? Jun 19 02:49:41 /etc/profile Jun 19 02:50:01 on bash or ash as well? Jun 19 02:50:03 only Jun 19 02:50:21 I presume busybox /bin/sh Jun 19 02:51:32 looking at the UpdateDaemon's binary there are some strings that look similar to the webOS manual about uploads timing out, charger connected or not, etc.. so it could be the Updater Jun 19 02:51:49 err installs timing out etc.. Jun 19 02:51:49 mickdouglas: is there an mp3 of that podcast available? Jun 19 02:52:16 rwhitby not yet. we just finished 'casting an hour or two ago Jun 19 02:52:34 there will be a posting in iTunes and on pauldotcom.com Jun 19 02:52:36 mickdouglas: I'll be interested to take a listen on my commute home tonight :-) Jun 19 02:52:38 I would to err be on the safe side chmod -x such files ;) if I were capable of doing such Jun 19 02:52:57 rwhitby - sorry we take a day or two Jun 19 02:53:06 let me get a link to the show notes Jun 19 02:53:17 mickdouglas: thx Jun 19 02:53:38 pdc episode 156 show notes: http://pauldotcom.com/wiki/index.php/Episode156#Mini_Tech_Segment:_The_Pre_is_rooted.21_Now_what.3F_by_Mick_Douglas Jun 19 02:54:03 I just chatted about some of the things you can do w/ teh Pre from an InfoSec perspective Jun 19 02:54:14 right now I'm most interested in nmap and tshark Jun 19 02:54:34 tho most folks a drooling over metasploit -- and I can't really blame 'em ;-) Jun 19 02:55:01 but metasploit isn't happy with the ipkg-opt ruby Jun 19 02:55:27 ipkg-opt ruby is 1.9.1 & that's not a good match for 3.2 framework of metasploit Jun 19 02:55:48 Oh security tip! Please be sure to turn off developer mode!! Jun 19 02:55:51 mickdouglas: have a chat to eno, he might be able to help with that. Jun 19 02:56:09 actually, i'm not so much a ruby user Jun 19 02:56:28 hope someone can give ruby a boost on optware Jun 19 02:56:29 rwhitby I had a mail exchange with HD Moore the maker of metasploit last night about it Jun 19 02:56:59 metasploit will have a release sometime soonish that is 1.9.1 compatible Jun 19 02:57:13 actually the 1.9.1 ruby isn't bad... Jun 19 02:57:31 it's the slow proc that makes it seem tough to deal with Jun 19 02:57:45 at least that's what I found in my limited testing Jun 19 02:58:11 zsazs -- thanks again for the tip about dev mode!! Jun 19 02:58:14 * rwhitby add http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/raw/master/etc/profile.d/optware to our bootstrap git repo Jun 19 02:58:44 i tested tshark 1.2.0 last night on a NAS using optware/cs08q1armel, works fine Jun 19 02:58:48 that should save people having to edit /etc/profile just to get the optware paths Jun 19 02:59:17 eno yeah the tshark is hella cool! I'm looking forward to tsharking the wifi. Jun 19 02:59:37 what I can't wait for is the day the wifi chip is supported in kismet **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Jun 19 02:59:58 2009
