**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Jun 25 02:59:57 2010 Jun 25 02:59:58 jhowirc: so they give unlock codes without crap? Jun 25 03:26:29 Hi - to fully reset the phone to factory conditions - no patches, etc. - must I use the Dr., or does "full erase" from the phone menu accomplish the same thing? Jun 25 03:28:03 Nrbelex: full erase, then doctor Jun 25 03:29:12 rwhitby: A doctor alone won't do it. :( I don't have much time. Jun 25 03:29:21 ? Jun 25 03:29:23 How do I remove applications from the "Restore Application Data" section of Save/Restore? Jun 25 03:29:41 mrjcarter: you can't Jun 25 03:29:46 I have Preware Alpha and Uber-Kernel in there an I no longer have them installed Jun 25 03:30:08 mrjcarter: remove the directories from saverestore on the USB drive Jun 25 03:30:19 thank you Jun 25 03:30:28 Nrbelex: doctor alone will leave USB drive. full erase alone won't remove patches Jun 25 03:30:43 rwhitby: I see - thanks. Jun 25 03:31:32 rwhitby: You've never heard of an issue where the phone spontaneously says "phone offline" and refuses to do anything needed the network, have you? Jun 25 03:31:41 It sporadically works, but rarely Jun 25 03:31:48 *needing Jun 25 03:32:28 Nrbelex: overclocking can cause that Jun 25 03:34:59 rwhitby: The only patches I've got on are Advanced Launcher Options, Advanced Reset Options, Call Duration in Log, Enable Add/Delete Pages, Enable Landscape E-mail, Match state/area code, No auto-refresh after idle, reduce drag radius, replies black font, SMS vibrate to 1.5 secs, Clean Timestamps, unhide dev mode, and virtual keyboard Jun 25 03:35:14 none of which seemed too risky Jun 25 03:35:34 Except maybe the keyboard Jun 25 03:37:43 Im thinking of doing the video in B&W. Just cause... Jun 25 03:54:54 att has to give out the unlock codes as part of a settlement. (iphones excepted) Jun 25 04:04:22 Aha - found the Meta-Doctor error which has been causing the flash failed messages. Jun 25 04:28:44 what was it? Jun 25 04:44:06 -h in tar - dereferencing symlinks Jun 25 04:48:09 * Tman just bought a Pixi Plus Jun 25 04:51:04 ah.

Jun 25 05:02:54 ~infobot Jun 25 05:02:55 sugardave, i love abuse, feed me!, or whack, yo Jun 25 05:03:03 ~botsnack Jun 25 05:03:03 aw, gee, sugardave Jun 25 05:03:12 ~info Jun 25 05:39:20 anyone know how to re-login into a profile. I did a partial reset, and now I have no installed apps, I was expecting to see the profile login screen and for it to start downloading my 100 or so apps Jun 25 05:39:27 * rwhitby does a save/restore run on his current phone before transitioning to the new one Jun 25 05:41:53 that was the last step I did bfore the partial Jun 25 05:42:25 i just never did a prtial, only ever did DRs before Jun 25 05:44:00 hey webos users :) Jun 25 05:44:28 users, i thought we were slaves Jun 25 05:44:35 oh, wait, that's iwebos Jun 25 05:44:37 :P Jun 25 05:45:04 what are you guys up to? Jun 25 05:45:19 trying to figure out why my computer booted into recovery mode Jun 25 05:45:35 i'm pretty sure it's cause 10.04 is still unstable, but i'm not sure Jun 25 05:46:06 mikePre: palm-launch com.palm.app.firstuse Jun 25 05:46:32 im still an android user :/ i never thought id say it, but i like it more than webos. Jun 25 05:46:49 * rwhitby kicks Decimate Jun 25 05:46:59 hah Jun 25 05:47:12 seriously though. the app avalibility wins it :/ Jun 25 05:50:07 i wish webos had done better :( Jun 25 05:54:20 Anyone know if webos can read from a rdb file? Using an http get? I figured it should... Jun 25 05:54:42 you can read from anything i think Jun 25 05:54:54 you'll just have to write the code to do it Jun 25 05:55:58 ok, what are the chances that this just happeend, I did a partial erase, and at 10:43, 12 minutes ago, my pre did a backup, while there were no apps, Jun 25 05:56:10 so i guess at that point all my app catalog apps are goners for now? Jun 25 06:00:53 mikePre: no, if you go to them in the app catalog, they will all be "Download for free" cause you've already bought them Jun 25 06:02:55 ok, cool, I am going to try the Pre Backup /Restore to get most of them back, never tried that restore, but I will tonight, so much for an early night Jun 25 06:03:59 night everyone Jun 25 06:04:02 hi Jun 25 06:11:03 hey MetaView Jun 25 06:13:08 Gah. My desktop is officially dead Jun 25 06:14:46 hi rwhitby Jun 25 06:14:58 what about patch-git access? Jun 25 06:15:17 and what happens to the patch feed at all? somethign broken? no updates since weeks. Jun 25 06:15:34 MetaView: dBsooner MIA, we're moving the portal to a new server. Jun 25 06:15:42 MetaView: you have patch-git access Jun 25 06:16:33 oh, then I need to look again, browsing the web-frontend I didn't find the patch files Jun 25 06:16:47 ok, thx, I will check it out later today Jun 25 06:16:53 MetaView: you have git access, but not portal admin access Jun 25 06:16:54 Oh, Oh, new record for my 9800GTX+ in regards to temp! 110C Jun 25 06:17:49 MetaView: we'll get you portal admin access on the new server Jun 25 06:18:06 that's nice, thx Jun 25 06:18:21 sooo…. who broke the server this time? Jun 25 06:19:24 was it oil? I blame oil... Jun 25 06:19:43 * oil has no access to the server for that very reason :) Jun 25 06:20:04 riiiiiiight Jun 25 06:20:41 * rwhitby does a meta-doctor full image backup of old devoce Jun 25 06:20:45 So, apparently I get to combine redmine with git as a side project at my work. Fun times…. Jun 25 06:21:14 halfhalo: I thought redmine supported git out of the box Jun 25 06:21:34 not what we want it to do Jun 25 06:22:07 wait...they claim git integration OOB Jun 25 06:22:43 SCM integration (SVN, CVS, Git, Mercurial, Bazaar and Darcs) Jun 25 06:22:51 It integrates quite nicely as a diff viewer, etc Jun 25 06:23:25 but what I'm doing is setting it up to auto close issues when a commit with the issue tag is pushed by an authorised dev Jun 25 06:23:56 oh, thats something completely different...Nevermind. Jun 25 06:24:25 IE if there is an open ticket #1234 a commit named "Pending fix for #1234" would change the ticket status to resolved or whatever Jun 25 06:25:09 okay if they want that they can add it laters. Jun 25 06:25:20 right now I'm just setting it up. Jun 25 06:25:39 what, redmine? Jun 25 06:25:40 4 more full backups and I can upgrade Xen. Jun 25 06:25:44 yes Jun 25 06:25:48 nice Jun 25 06:26:07 halfhalo: webos-internals is thinking of using redmine Jun 25 06:26:10 my dept uses it extensivly Jun 25 06:26:13 a LOT going on here in embedded space. Jun 25 06:26:38 Yeah Jun 25 06:27:08 side work=win Jun 25 06:28:20 god, I love my works git setup… no ssh keys when using a campus computer to worry about Jun 25 06:28:37 auths via LDAP and the local account Jun 25 06:30:13 It gets pissy when pushed via an outside system though…. so we use a clunky bridge Jun 25 06:30:49 Standard git repo using keys that pushes to the LDAP repo when it gets pushed to Jun 25 06:31:38 Oh, and apparently the vm server I use as a test server has an old git version… thats fun Jun 25 06:31:47 no —recursive support Jun 25 06:32:54 ramble ramble Jun 25 06:33:58 halfhalo: how does the ldap auth work? Jun 25 06:36:17 Every computer on campus has to be logged into via a system wide account which is stored in an LDAP server (or a server emulating LDAP, not sure) Jun 25 06:36:49 I'm off, bbl Jun 25 06:36:50 yep, got that bit already Jun 25 06:37:24 sorry, multitasking with boss, hold on Jun 25 06:38:18 sweet, cosmetic changes only…., ok back to ldap stuff Jun 25 06:41:00 whenever someone tries to push to git the git server talks to a central user server on campus and asks for the users location, if any based on ip/hostname/something like that. If the reported location and the push location match up, the push is made Jun 25 06:41:54 I haven't actually taken a peak at the innards of the git server/user server since I have no access to it Jun 25 06:44:40 But I know how it used to work… which was on login to the campus computer a random private/public key pair is generated and saved just for the one session Jun 25 06:46:16 oh, sweet, don't need to have the redmine/git thing happen realtime Jun 25 06:46:36 I can just write a script that checks every 5 minutes Jun 25 06:48:19 God, I love my dept Jun 25 06:48:35 My boss yelled at me today about using the projector to watch the world cup Jun 25 06:49:25 Told me to not use vga since it gets all fuzzy and just use the hdmi cord Jun 25 06:50:13 ramblerambleramlepie Jun 25 06:51:37 in other news, mac os without growl SUCKS Jun 25 06:52:46 hm Jun 25 06:53:03 I wonder if I have growl installed on the mac Jun 25 06:53:31 I don't have quicksilver installed either Jun 25 06:54:43 in other other more git related news… I should set up a vm with a git repo Jun 25 06:55:39 in both growl and git related news, I lost my git repo watcher script…. Jun 25 06:56:21 oo Jun 25 06:56:35 that would be useful Jun 25 06:56:38 was literally a script that watched for changes in a repo and used growl to show recent commits Jun 25 06:58:22 then I can watch build.git Jun 25 06:58:43 When I rebuild it I'll give you a copy Jun 25 06:59:19 kool Jun 25 07:03:18 Hmmmm Jun 25 07:03:23 Now I want a CI Jun 25 07:10:39 Yeah…. I should stop programming right now…. I just started yelling at growl for not working when I forgot its not installed Jun 25 07:48:28 Hey guys.... Anybody awake right now who can help just bit with the "Saved Package List" of Preware?? Jun 25 07:48:38 *just a bit Jun 25 07:51:05 KnoxBNYC: what's up? Jun 25 07:51:38 Ah...> Rod... I guess you would know something about Preware, eh? ;) Jun 25 07:51:47 Just a little? :) Jun 25 07:52:25 A friend just got a new Pre Plus (Verizon). I had him install Preware and a bunch of patches. Then we realized he was on v1.4.0. He updated and now his patches are gone. When he goes into SAVED PACKAGE LIST, it says they are there and when he goes into each individual one, it only gives him the option to REMOVE. I KNOW I'm doing something wrong while trying to talk him through this remotely (he's at home in NYC. I'm in S Jun 25 07:52:41 (updated to v1.4.1.1) Jun 25 07:53:19 They all have little green mini-icons on them. Jun 25 07:55:21 check that his preware has the webos-patches feed enabled Jun 25 07:55:41 and that it is pointing to the correctly versioned URL Jun 25 07:55:48 and then that he has updated feeds in preware Jun 25 07:56:11 all the feeds are default. Jun 25 07:56:16 bvut i will check those things. Jun 25 07:56:25 he doesn't see the patches in the updated packages list? Jun 25 07:56:49 where is the updated packages list? (i'm lookoing on my pre) Jun 25 07:56:55 geez, my typing sucks tonight. sorry Jun 25 07:57:04 the other thing to try is to run the emergency reconstruction utility first in preware Jun 25 07:57:42 okay. writing all this down for when i talk to him tomorrow. Jun 25 07:58:57 got it all written down now. Jun 25 07:59:00 thanks rod. Jun 25 08:00:12 Rod: You're in Australia?? Jun 25 08:03:16 Ah. I guess you are busy now. Jun 25 08:19:16 KnoxBNYC: yep & yep Jun 25 09:35:04 is it possible (using the PDK) to write a plugin for the calendar to make it possible to integrate other calendars (e.g. iCal/CalDAV) too? most of my calendars actually reside on iCal/CalDAV servers and i don't want to sync them to Google first, because this would make it impossible to distinguish between different calendars + i don't wanna pass all my company calendar data to Google anyways... Jun 25 09:35:45 so is there no iCal/CalDAV plugin for the calendar yet, because it is simply not possible because of missing interfaces etc. or because no-one built one yet? Jun 25 09:42:45 whatsup everyone? Jun 25 09:59:41 rwhitby: ping Jun 25 09:59:54 or uNiXpSyChO Jun 25 09:59:57 pong Jun 25 10:00:02 :P Jun 25 10:00:04 have you folks considered using a swap partition instead of a file ? Jun 25 10:00:05 im only one ponging Jun 25 10:03:38 might be the sam speed Jun 25 10:12:03 yeah, 2.6 has them working at the same speed, too bad Jun 25 10:16:13 u talking to me :P?

Jun 25 17:14:48 thank you to puff for help yesterday. I come with a hopefully brief q: in most locations (except/opt) I can't create a directory, gettin the read only file system message. I am root and su. is this normal? I can't even chmod the dir I need to write to. Jun 25 17:16:53 rcube: root filesystem is mounted readonly by default Jun 25 17:17:05 rcube: if you wanna write to it, do a 'mount -o rw, / Jun 25 17:17:23 rcube: mount -o remount,rw / Jun 25 17:17:46 when you're done, remount it ro--same thing but 'ro' instead of 'rw'. Jun 25 17:19:43 dtzWill: you are the best. thanks! Jun 25 17:20:03 rcube: you're certainly welcome Jun 25 17:23:27 anyone familier with running a web server from the pre?

Jun 25 20:57:16 Hey all Jun 25 20:58:29 I'm having an issue I need assistance with. I accidentally upgraded the virtual keyboard app on my Pre to the testing version and now it doesn't work at all. I have tried removing it with Preware and it goes nowhere. I get the same result trying to remove it with webos quick install Jun 25 20:58:49 any ideas how to get rid of it and back to the public version? Jun 25 21:05:26 oc80z but does the app show in the list of apps if you go into launcher and then select list from the app menu? Jun 25 21:06:08 TheInvsbleMan did you remove it via preware before or after you disabled the testing feeds? Jun 25 21:06:24 I still have the testing feeds enabled Jun 25 21:06:42 and preware doesn't uninstall it? Jun 25 21:06:58 egaudet_work ought to be able to help. Jun 25 21:07:30 nope it says "removing" or whatever it says and then the circle just spins without actually doing anything Jun 25 21:11:24 should I pm egaudet_work? Jun 25 21:14:32 i had this same issue Jun 25 21:14:45 i had to reboot my phone and then remove it Jun 25 21:15:04 don't know if the hook it uses to call up a custom widget gets stuck in resident memory or what Jun 25 21:15:13 but i was able to remove it that way Jun 25 21:15:41 all right I'll give it a shot Jun 25 21:21:27 start upgrading to 1.4.5 people Jun 25 21:21:27 http://palm.cdnetworks.net/rom/pre/p1411r0d03312010/sr1ntp1411rod/webosdoctorp100ewwsprint.jar Jun 25 21:23:52 what the hell did Google do to their search results Jun 25 21:26:33 restarting didn't work Jun 25 21:26:49 Looks like I'll be doctoring to 1.4.5 that should get rid of the keyboard :) Jun 25 21:27:50 where's my goddamned 1.4.5 Jun 25 21:28:19 mobile1up does not have a mobile interface :( Jun 25 21:28:28 i'm no marketing expert Jun 25 21:29:00 but it would seem to me that if I were a handset and mobile OS manufacturer, and i were running a contest beginning July 1st for my new plug-in development kit Jun 25 21:29:17 that i would also want users of my mobile OS to have that functionality on their phones Jun 25 21:29:52 i will chortle a chortle of epic proportions if palm or some idiot carrier gooses that up Jun 25 21:38:56 is 1.4.5 out? Jun 25 21:39:57 uhoh :) Jun 25 21:40:34 if anyone has 1.4.5 running, can you run ipkg list | grep crypto Jun 25 21:40:43 & tell me the cryptofs version' Jun 25 21:42:43 everything about that .jar says 1.4.1.1 Jun 25 21:44:51 hahaha Jun 25 21:45:22 the two instances of "1411" should be enough Jun 25 21:46:06 so that's not 1.4.5? Jun 25 21:47:43 I have it downloaded and unpacked how would I be able to tell if it's 1.4.5? Jun 25 21:48:06 by snooping inside the JAR Jun 25 21:48:20 I'm inside it but what should I look at? Jun 25 21:48:48 the release notes, for starters Jun 25 21:48:58 beelzabub, yeah its out Jun 25 21:49:08 where would I find the release notes? Jun 25 21:49:27 idk yet Jun 25 21:49:34 i dont think its officially out for a few hours Jun 25 21:49:38 but i pressed updated on my phone Jun 25 21:49:46 and it there was an update Jun 25 21:49:50 and the jnlp for the doctor Jun 25 21:50:06 PuffTheMagic, that one you have says 1.4.1.1 in 2 places. Jun 25 21:50:07 checkin for updates Jun 25 21:50:18 weird Jun 25 21:50:21 I checked nothing came up Jun 25 21:50:25 same Jun 25 21:50:27 but I downloaded that jar Jun 25 21:50:43 I have it all unpacked and such I just don't know where to look Jun 25 21:50:49 and i have no application updates Jun 25 21:51:05 it's probably vzw navigator or something Jun 25 21:51:17 and the patch to hide it also removes it from the application list Jun 25 21:52:25 um,mm there is an adobe folder inside this Jar Jun 25 21:53:20 argh i'm being trolled into downloading the stupid JAR Jun 25 21:53:33 go go FiOS Jun 25 21:53:34 http://img.skitch.com/20100625-q3u5p25hq1bf1sbt5y7i6kgb9n.jpg Jun 25 21:54:31 so there is nowhere I can look in this jar to see what version it is? Jun 25 21:55:24 yes Jun 25 21:55:26 hold please Jun 25 21:55:32 ok Jun 25 21:56:19 oh good, it's nice to see that google's useragent handling fuckup has shown up on precentral Jun 25 21:56:42 actually, that's not accurate Jun 25 21:57:26 it's a combination of google relying on the useragent and the build of webkit in webOS lagging behind other webkit browsers Jun 25 21:59:49 i'll give you a hint as to whether or not it's 1.4.5 Jun 25 22:00:20 the JAR was created about 100 days ago Jun 25 22:00:38 http://img.skitch.com/20100625-jfyf1nn6368i9aujm36ejnc1c5.jpg Jun 25 22:00:43 voice dialing? Jun 25 22:00:58 that's always been there Jun 25 22:01:01 oh ok Jun 25 22:01:42 so it's definitely not 1.4.5? Jun 25 22:01:47 arn, yeah the jar is not updated Jun 25 22:01:57 but my phone as never mention 1.4.5 in the update app before Jun 25 22:01:58 it is definitely not 1.4.5 Jun 25 22:02:04 and i did Jun 25 22:02:11 so if figured the urls were out and postef it Jun 25 22:02:16 def not 1.4.5 Jun 25 22:02:18 i'm not saying that 1.4.5 couldn't be trickling out to sprint users Jun 25 22:02:31 typical palm move Jun 25 22:02:33 i know, the jar it snot 1.4.5 Jun 25 22:02:41 that was a mistake Jun 25 22:02:49 although to be fair, you should be able to post a screenshot from the device info app Jun 25 22:03:00 but 1.4.5 has to be imminent Jun 25 22:03:27 * ka6sox-work loves rumors.... Jun 25 22:04:02 * beelzabub loves rumours Jun 25 22:04:12 stop dropping letters people :D Jun 25 22:04:49 * beelzabub in a show of solidarity, have been running 1.4.2 Jun 25 22:06:01 1.4.1.1 or get out Jun 25 22:06:22 i dunno - what are the release numbers & which carriers get what? Jun 25 22:07:09 1.4.2 is a GSM build Jun 25 22:07:21 ATT, specifically Jun 25 22:07:48 1.4.1.1 is a CDMA build (Sprint and VZW) Jun 25 22:07:58 i didnt mean to start rumor here Jun 25 22:07:59 i can't speak to the overseas carriers Jun 25 22:08:05 well all know an update it close Jun 25 22:08:06 thanks Jun 25 22:10:27 i wish this World Cup app ran in the dashboard Jun 25 22:10:36 it's made such tremendous progress since 1.0 Jun 25 22:12:03 who has been playing around with the kernels? I have an issue and wondering if others do also Jun 25 22:13:05 all of the experimental kernels do the same exact issue. Jun 25 22:13:32 people - stop (ab)using kernels. they're fragile creatures as you can tell. Jun 25 22:13:35 jhowirc: nginx issue should be fixed now Jun 25 22:13:57 do *you* want to pay for the therapy that is necessary for exposing their issues ? :) Jun 25 22:14:32 yay Jun 25 22:15:00 lol well govnah shows as 500mhz no matter what mhz I put it at. Jun 25 22:15:20 only in screenstate thou Jun 25 22:16:26 morning Jun 25 22:16:46 TheSavaLord: unplug the cable Jun 25 22:18:09 ohh lol is that a feature to keep down the heat Jun 25 22:18:49 see now I feel stupid lol Jun 25 22:20:16 anyways great work on everything Jun 25 22:22:43 completed my partial erase and then restore of apps using the Pre Backup utility, launched preware, and it only shows 10 isntalled apps of 238, I ran Emergency Reconstruction Utility and it didnt help, any other ideas I can try? Jun 25 22:29:37 mikePre: partial erase blows away all knowledge of what is installed - we cannot reconstruct it. hopefully you used save/restore to grab the saved package list Jun 25 22:32:01 yes, I did a save/restore write before the partial...when I go into preware and look at saved list, there are many with v1.0.0. Unknown Date, looks to be all the App Catalog ones, it sees all the patches and homebew ones Jun 25 22:33:11 make sure the app catalog is enabled and it should exclude those Jun 25 22:33:35 (it needs to know that they are app catalog by matching them with feed data, and app catalog feed is disabled by default) Jun 25 22:45:06 hey Jun 25 23:05:21 rwhitby, if ut still around, i have one other question Jun 25 23:05:53 yep Jun 25 23:06:22 since I have all my apps from the backup I made, can I wipe out the webos-patches.log and .webosinternals.patches.packages and reinstall preware and let it rescan everything? Jun 25 23:07:00 probably Jun 25 23:07:56 ok, thanks Jun 25 23:08:13 figured this might be a useful tip for precentral - you guys know about power-wiggle, right? Jun 25 23:08:48 power wiggle? Jun 25 23:09:33 hold power button & wiggle the ringer switch Jun 25 23:09:36 it reboots the device Jun 25 23:09:51 battery pull without a clean shutdown first might cause data corruption Jun 25 23:10:04 option sym r Jun 25 23:10:09 this reboots the device more safely than that (less safely than going through the menu & doing it right) Jun 25 23:10:10 reboots as well Jun 25 23:10:26 option sym r is more high level Jun 25 23:10:48 the order is menu/option sym r -> power wiggle -> battery pull Jun 25 23:11:09 power wiggle does a sync of the FS first Jun 25 23:11:12 is it? I thought there were only 2 typed of reboots? luna reboot and full device reboot Jun 25 23:11:20 ahh ok Jun 25 23:13:21 power wiggle is directly in the kernel Jun 25 23:13:28 it's extremely low level Jun 25 23:13:42 Ok good to know Jun 25 23:13:46 it is pretty much 100% reliable on castle Jun 25 23:13:53 I knew you could do that I just thought it was the same as opt sym r Jun 25 23:14:01 good to know the difference Jun 25 23:14:01 almost as reliable on pixie (slightly less so since it just sends a request to the modem) Jun 25 23:16:48 get on to the bus .. that's gonna take you back to beelzebub Jun 25 23:17:28 huh? Jun 25 23:17:36 soul coughing song :( Jun 25 23:17:44 but whenever i see that nick, i sing it to myself Jun 25 23:17:47 :) Jun 25 23:18:05 google "bus to beelzebub" and there is a lala.com link to listen if you like Jun 25 23:23:55 beelzabub: yeah, power wiggle will fix anything except broken new testing kernels :) Jun 25 23:24:24 really? it sits right in the interrupt Jun 25 23:24:32 you'd have to try real hard to break it i'd imagine Jun 25 23:24:42 bb Jun 25 23:25:22 beelzabub: 125MHz not being liked by the hardware/kernel will do it on one of my devices Jun 25 23:26:50 I want to save the state of toggle buttons Jun 25 23:26:54 fair enoug Jun 25 23:27:17 How should I do that? Jun 25 23:36:28 beelzabub: but yeah, power wiggle gets out of 99.99% of situations that users encounter Jun 25 23:55:34 http://i49.tinypic.com/2w7i97r.png | app not in my launcher Jun 26 00:14:38 whats the fix eh? need to install some apps, eh. Jun 26 00:14:56 webos doctor will fix it ;) Jun 26 00:20:52 you know what the biggest performance increase for webos is? Jun 26 00:20:56 faster card animation patch =) Jun 26 00:22:28 really? Jun 26 00:23:00 doesn't that just make the card animation faster? Jun 26 00:25:18 anyone know how to get the current (er, that is, at the moment) coulomb draw from sh? Jun 26 00:25:34 jhojho: did you disable syslogging? Jun 26 00:25:44 ? Jun 26 00:26:00 have you looked in /var/log? Jun 26 00:26:03 torchie: well percieved perf is important =) Jun 26 00:26:13 I wasnt being serious =) Jun 26 00:26:19 but I like that patch Jun 26 00:26:20 fwiw Jun 26 00:26:26 oic Jun 26 00:26:27 the logging is, in my opinion, a little excessive... disabling logging in /etc/pmlog.conf gives a big performance boost Jun 26 00:26:39 I find the faster card animation actually takes longer Jun 26 00:26:39 well perceived perf is important! Jun 26 00:26:52 an interesting one is to run LunaSysMgr with env DISABLE_JS_LOGGING=1 Jun 26 00:26:56 sbromwich: not for me but then it's all perception!! Jun 26 00:27:03 wait so there IS a system log? Jun 26 00:27:16 not when I've got a stop watch and a case of OCD ;-) Jun 26 00:27:28 beelzabub: thanks for the tip! Jun 26 00:27:41 patch patch patch Jun 26 00:27:54 sounds like sbromwich just volunteered Jun 26 00:27:55 :P Jun 26 00:27:58 * jhojho runs away Jun 26 00:27:58 ;) Jun 26 00:28:16 beelzabub: FYI it looks like something somewhere is calling the idle stuff trying to set a state lower than C7... I think something like C47399761 or something similar underflowy Jun 26 00:28:29 s/lower/higher/ Jun 26 00:28:30 sbromwich meant: beelzabub: FYI it looks like something somewhere is calling the idle stuff trying to set a state higher than C7... I think something like C47399761 or something similar underflowy Jun 26 00:28:32 hmm - any chance you know who? Jun 26 00:28:39 that's what I'm tracing Jun 26 00:29:07 I just compiled up a "beat the problem with a hammer" kernel that just sets cx->.... whatever it is to C7 if it's > C7 Jun 26 00:29:38 actually, i suspect it would be the reverse Jun 26 00:29:45 if it's underflow, it probably wants C0 Jun 26 00:30:22 I think it's taken it negative and continued reducing until it became positive Jun 26 00:30:26 that's just a guess though Jun 26 00:30:38 right - that's why it makes sense to use C0 Jun 26 00:30:47 but yeah, it could well be overflow, you're perfectly right Jun 26 00:31:02 wait Jun 26 00:31:07 is the number given positive or negative Jun 26 00:31:10 I tried using wfi if the case statement that checked bombed and it helped Jun 26 00:31:12 i mean the expected Jun 26 00:31:40 it's *displayed* as positive but it's such a huge number it looks to me like an underflow that's gone past -65535 Jun 26 00:31:59 actually looks like -1 unsigned int to me Jun 26 00:32:08 I don't know what it's meant to be... just what I've seen from the printk msgs I put in Jun 26 00:32:21 first digit is definitely a 4 Jun 26 00:33:02 in fact now I think further it can't be -65535 since the bad number is waaaaay higher than 65535 Jun 26 00:33:15 4 million or so Jun 26 00:34:11 right -1 as unsigned int Jun 26 00:34:20 int = 32 bits Jun 26 00:34:21 not 16 Jun 26 00:34:50 right Jun 26 00:34:52 i suspect it's actually not decrementing too low Jun 26 00:34:59 i suspect it literally is -1 Jun 26 00:35:08 * sbromwich starts counting powers of 2 on his fingers Jun 26 00:35:12 are there any other values coming in? Jun 26 00:35:20 http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&client=ubuntu&channel=cs&ie=UTF-8&q=2^32-1 Jun 26 00:35:31 just the one... I'll try capturing it next time I see it in dmesg Jun 26 00:35:42 I'm pretty sure it's always the same bad number Jun 26 00:35:56 right - so someone is passing in -1 instead of 0 Jun 26 00:36:08 or propagating an error code Jun 26 00:37:48 just looking to see where it kicks in Jun 26 00:39:27 I *think* it's prcm_set_power_domain_state in prcm_pwr.c but the 6 beers I had for supper may be misleading me Jun 26 00:39:54 it's something that churns up in dmesg anyway Jun 26 00:42:33 however my netbook is insisting on oopsing every time I plug my pre in... reboot time I guess (or I have beer in the netbook :-/ ) Jun 26 00:42:35 brb Jun 26 00:56:55 http://i49.tinypic.com/2w7i97r.png | app not in my launcher, eh, fix me. Jun 26 00:58:21 jeez... better wifi performance from my pre than my netbook Jun 26 01:40:09 Yo. Jun 26 01:40:46 hey BeeRad how's the video going Jun 26 01:42:44 Just got done uploading and processed. Please hold. Jun 26 01:43:27 so I am sitting in an airport and there are three mobile networks in range that have pre obviously in the name (including mine) Jun 26 01:43:37 gogo webos Jun 26 01:45:06 It's processing still for HD content. Jun 26 01:46:48 * rwhitby BeeRad mind if I add stuff to the description ? Jun 26 01:47:35 Change whatever you want Rod. Jun 26 01:47:50 I said the basis of what I wanted to say. Jun 26 01:49:05 Just dont spread this around until A- you really approve of it, and B- it gets the hi def processing. I cant stand the low res versions. Jun 26 01:49:28 It's not the best video ever, but, whatever. lol Jun 26 01:49:33 so... who here would rather see 125MHz dropped from the kernels and 800 put back in? Jun 26 01:50:44 you are free to build a kernel with your choices Jun 26 01:51:15 I know Jun 26 01:51:38 I am just curious about the decision though... alot of phones freeze at 125 so why have it there? Jun 26 01:51:50 (not knocking you in any way btw, you have done some amazing stuff) Jun 26 01:52:25 and alot of phones dont freeze... like mine Jun 26 01:52:47 very well then... didn't mean to get you all defensive, lol Jun 26 01:53:10 any idea why some of the phones do freeze? Jun 26 01:53:38 i'm not defensive. some phones hang while overclocking. and i heard alot of OC poo-poo. Jun 26 01:54:46 ahh... I have done my fair share of Linux OC'ing as well, I think it is pretty impressive what you have gotten out of this phone. Jun 26 01:55:23 did you have any issues getting the new 1GHz setup stable? or was it pretty solid with just the freq bump? Jun 26 01:55:43 mine is fine Jun 26 01:56:00 yeah, mine freezes at anything below 500 Jun 26 01:56:04 there's a 1GHz setting? Jun 26 01:56:07 well, at 125 and 250 Jun 26 01:56:23 torchie: only in the past few testing kernels Jun 26 01:56:31 ya'll crazy Jun 26 01:56:38 there is a few more tweaks...but from what I see from testers its completely all over the place. some people despise it and uninstall it ASAP and most say it's the cats a$$ and love it. Jun 26 01:56:39 and it comes with a very stern warning from uNiXpSyChO Jun 26 01:57:02 I loved the Screenstate 500/800 setup Jun 26 01:57:26 it was solid, performed great, awesome balance between power usage, performance, stability and temperature Jun 26 01:57:31 some report pathetic battery life, some say its better. so who do i believe :-) Jun 26 01:57:49 ;o Jun 26 01:58:10 I have noticed more battery drain at 800 (I wouldn't call it pathetic though), but the screenstate governor makes it awesome Jun 26 01:58:21 the moderately increased battery drain is only while using the phone Jun 26 01:58:37 I think the screenstate governor is the real bread and butter here Jun 26 01:58:50 great work overall! Jun 26 01:58:56 and i would think that is the norm when overclocking and actually "using" the phone. but some people find that unacceptable. Jun 26 01:59:23 if they don't want the increased battery drain, then they shouldn't OC... can't have your cake and eat it too... Jun 26 01:59:42 it is common sense to all OC'ers that increased speed = increased power Jun 26 01:59:43 tell that to those demanding users ;P Jun 26 02:00:13 I will make an app that explains OC and battery usage and put it in the web feed, lol Jun 26 02:00:56 then you will get users asking what is OC...and why.... Jun 26 02:01:08 brb, gotta make a phone call Jun 26 02:01:45 * uNiXpSyChO wants to mention he got a strong 4G signal in Boston. and it is FAST! Jun 26 02:04:59 ok, I am back Jun 26 02:05:21 good point uNiXpSyChO on the getting OC questions, lol Jun 26 02:05:55 so... now that you can wrap the services into the apps... what is keeping preware from being in the app catalog? Jun 26 02:09:32 cryptk: the fact that Preware can wipe your whole device if I was evil Jun 26 02:09:44 lol Jun 26 02:10:04 but other than that, is there a reason? I mean anyone could do that... Jun 26 02:10:12 what keeps you from putting it in the web feed? Jun 26 02:10:15 no, nothing in the app catalog can do that. Jun 26 02:10:20 Rod could be eeeeeeevil. Jun 26 02:10:24 that would allow people to install it without using QI Jun 26 02:10:25 all three feeds have the same content requirements Jun 26 02:10:37 ahh Jun 26 02:10:47 and the same automated security scans Jun 26 02:11:07 there is a fourth Pre wifi hotspot... Jun 26 02:11:11 all in one place Jun 26 02:11:14 wonder who has them... Jun 26 02:11:27 http://i49.tinypic.com/2w7i97r.png | whats this fix eh Jun 26 02:11:58 that is odd... Jun 26 02:12:50 my laptop doesn't charge my pre as fast as it drains... Jun 26 02:12:54 with wifi hotspot... Jun 26 02:13:13 although the lappy isn't plugged in... wonder if the USB ports have a low power mode or something Jun 26 02:15:04 cryptk: look in the installHistory database Jun 26 02:15:28 cryptk: or hit the pause button on the right and cancel the download Jun 26 02:15:43 ?? what are you talking about? Jun 26 02:15:47 what download? Jun 26 02:16:05 I wasn't the one that posted the link Jun 26 02:16:06 the download that your pre thinks is happening Jun 26 02:16:09 I was just saying it was odd Jun 26 02:16:10 lol Jun 26 02:16:10 oops. Jun 26 02:16:16 oc80z: ^^ Jun 26 02:17:14 dBsooner still MIA? Jun 26 02:17:30 yep Jun 26 02:17:41 we're moving the portal Jun 26 02:17:51 ahh Jun 26 02:19:36 rwhitby: anything interesting in the works that I missed during my buisness trip? Jun 26 02:20:26 KeyBoss Jun 26 02:21:24 some kind of password manager? Jun 26 02:21:55 gate change... bbiab **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jun 26 02:59:57 2010
