Jan 07 04:32:12 <invalidopcode> so doctor complains about "SEVERE: MountUtils: unmount failed: umount: can't umount /dev/mapper/store-log: No such file or directory"
Jan 07 04:32:42 <invalidopcode> any suggestions?
Jan 07 04:42:37 <invalidopcode> is there anyway for me to entirely wipe all the touchpad's partitions totally clean and have doctor recreate them?
Jan 07 05:16:22 <invalidopcode> is there anyone around who could spare a few minutes to help me try to fix my touchpad?
Jan 07 05:17:21 <invalidopcode> (its just partitioning issues)
Jan 07 05:17:38 <|abbie|> ?
Jan 07 05:18:20 <invalidopcode> my touchpad isn't booting after doctoring
Jan 07 05:18:30 <invalidopcode> and i tried to wipe everything on the touchpad
Jan 07 05:18:45 <invalidopcode> and now im stuck unable to recreate the filesystem :/
Jan 07 05:19:57 <invalidopcode> any suggestions?
Jan 07 05:21:18 <invalidopcode> this command: lvm.static vgcreate -s 8M store /dev/mmcblk0p14
Jan 07 05:21:33 <invalidopcode> fails with this: No physical volume label read from /dev/mmcblk0p14
Jan 07 05:22:08 <|abbie|> Yea, I'd have no clue.
Jan 07 05:22:48 <invalidopcode> ugh, thanks anyway
Jan 07 05:23:06 <|abbie|> I'm going to stick around in case someone has an answer though.
Jan 07 05:23:23 <|abbie|> onlything I could think about is trying to add commands to repartitoin to the metadoctor
Jan 07 05:23:35 <invalidopcode> are there such commands?
Jan 07 05:23:42 <|abbie|> or making sure your cable is not bad
Jan 07 05:23:52 <|abbie|> the cable one keeps screwing me over.
Jan 07 05:24:08 <invalidopcode> i think my cable is fine...
Jan 07 05:24:24 <invalidopcode> is there any way to force webos to repartition?
Jan 07 05:24:37 <|abbie|> was this after ubuntu?
Jan 07 05:25:08 <|abbie|> http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Application:MetaDoctor#How_to_remove_the_ext3fs_partition
Jan 07 05:29:28 <invalidopcode> no, it wasn't, but i might have a lead
Jan 07 05:29:43 <jcsullins> invalidopcode: no, cannot force webos to repartition ...
Jan 07 05:30:05 <jcsullins> why are u running the vgcreate command, btw?
Jan 07 05:30:27 <jcsullins> i.e. following some instructions somewhere? (link?)
Jan 07 05:31:33 <invalidopcode> yeah i tryied the Corrupted LVM in http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Last_Resort_Emergency_BootLoader_Recovery
Jan 07 05:31:54 <invalidopcode> (after trying like everything else, including manually recreating the filesystem)
Jan 07 05:32:53 <jcsullins> I see no vgcreate cmd on that page ...
Jan 07 05:33:46 <invalidopcode> http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/How_To_Recover
Jan 07 05:35:34 <jcsullins> ok, I think I know what u need to do, but need to get proper syntax.. just a min
Jan 07 05:36:25 <invalidopcode> yeah... hold on
Jan 07 05:37:03 <jcsullins> btw, what lead to this situation?
Jan 07 05:37:20 <invalidopcode> i just recreated the physical device i removed, and just recreated the filesystem, so ill try to doctor it now
Jan 07 05:37:44 <jcsullins> so what did u run?
Jan 07 05:37:58 <invalidopcode> jcsullins: i was having some fs problems the other day, and i was doing Linux and android stuff and i just wanted a clean start
Jan 07 05:39:13 <invalidopcode> doctor running....
Jan 07 05:39:56 <invalidopcode> hm... failed. can't mount /dev/mapper/store-log
Jan 07 05:41:01 <jcsullins> hmmm ... running commentary, or asking for help?
Jan 07 05:41:20 <invalidopcode> both? haha idk
Jan 07 05:41:25 <invalidopcode> thinking out loud
Jan 07 05:41:57 <jcsullins> what cmds did u just try now ... the "recreated the physical device" / etc. ?
Jan 07 05:43:31 <invalidopcode> lvm.static pvcreate /dev/mmcblk0p14
Jan 07 05:43:56 <invalidopcode> then the instructions at the bottom of http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/How_To_Recover
Jan 07 05:44:59 <jcsullins> so u re-ran all of the "Filesystem Recreation" stuff after the pvcreate?
Jan 07 05:45:06 <invalidopcode> yup
Jan 07 05:45:19 <jcsullins> and no errors from those cmds?
Jan 07 05:45:29 <invalidopcode> nope
Jan 07 05:45:46 <jcsullins> humm
Jan 07 05:47:24 <jcsullins> ahh, I see those cmds do not re-create the log filesystem ...
Jan 07 05:48:15 <invalidopcode> yeah
Jan 07 05:48:40 <invalidopcode> create... my touchpad won't turn on now
Jan 07 05:49:01 <jcsullins> huh?
Jan 07 05:49:14 <invalidopcode> its not even booting anymore
Jan 07 05:49:49 <invalidopcode> doctor uploaded the ramdisk, and was waiting for touchpad to come back and it just didn't
Jan 07 05:50:18 <jcsullins> reset w/ Power+Home?
Jan 07 05:50:41 <invalidopcode> nope
Jan 07 05:50:47 <invalidopcode> not working
Jan 07 05:50:56 <jcsullins> plugged into charger?
Jan 07 05:52:11 <jcsullins> how long did you hold Power+Home?
Jan 07 05:52:35 <invalidopcode> yup, and like 15-30 seconds
Jan 07 05:53:40 <jcsullins> might try connecting to PC and holding Power+Home and see if it shows up at all as USB device on PC
Jan 07 05:55:07 <jcsullins> also, have any idea how low the battery is? might need to leave on AC charger for a while to get it to a level where it can boot ...
Jan 07 05:56:22 <invalidopcode> it's been low (~25%) for the last couple hours and i was just quick charging it up to 25 to doctor so that might be the case
Jan 07 06:00:10 <invalidopcode> well my computer doesn't recognize it
Jan 07 06:00:53 <invalidopcode> im going to charge it for a while
Jan 07 06:01:00 <jcsullins> I would leave on AC charger for 30-45 mins ...
Jan 07 06:01:13 <invalidopcode> ok ill try that
Jan 07 06:01:37 <invalidopcode> so far as the log partition, what do you think i should do about that?
Jan 07 06:01:43 <jcsullins> might take even more, but usually that would be enough to get it to boot
Jan 07 06:01:52 <invalidopcode> (when/if it boots)
Jan 07 06:02:48 <invalidopcode> btw, thank you very much for help me
Jan 07 06:03:05 <jcsullins> sure.. btw, the PC -- what OS is it running?
Jan 07 06:03:19 <bhuey> crazy
Jan 07 06:03:39 <invalidopcode> Linux.... but i have a windows pc i can use too
Jan 07 06:03:53 <jcsullins> no, linux is much better
Jan 07 06:04:08 <invalidopcode> ok haha yeah
Jan 07 06:04:21 <jcsullins> when u tried connecting earlier, what did u use to determine that it was not recognized?
Jan 07 06:04:30 <invalidopcode> windows
Jan 07 06:04:36 <invalidopcode> i tryied it on my other computer
Jan 07 06:05:15 <jcsullins> I would try it on linux when running "tail -f /var/log/messages" in a window
Jan 07 06:06:46 <jcsullins> maybe not right now, but whenever u try that again ... start that cmd in window, plug in usb cable ( see if msgs about USB connect), if no msgs hold Power+Home for a while and see if any appear
Jan 07 06:07:02 <invalidopcode> ok, ill try that
Jan 07 06:08:25 <jcsullins> bhuey: don't go crazy on us
Jan 07 06:08:29 <jcsullins> :)
Jan 07 06:08:41 <bhuey> not yet at least
Jan 07 06:09:31 * invalidopcode trying to keep his head on straight
Jan 07 06:10:23 <invalidopcode> this is very humbling... im used to being the one providing support for other people
Jan 07 06:40:24 <invalidopcode> jcsullins: so i tried connecting it to my computer and following the log i get this: http://pastie.org/3141769
Jan 07 06:41:03 <jcsullins> what is output from "lsusb -v" ?
Jan 07 06:43:23 <jcsullins> actually, just "lsusb" is prob. fine
Jan 07 06:43:57 <invalidopcode> http://pastie.org/3141778
Jan 07 06:44:46 <invalidopcode> and http://pastie.org/3141780
Jan 07 06:46:05 <jcsullins> this: "ID 05c6:9008 Qualcomm, Inc. Gobi Wireless Modem (QDL mode)"
Jan 07 06:46:38 <jcsullins> does not look good ... try holding Power+Home for 30 secs and rerunning "lsusb" and see if that is still there ...
Jan 07 06:48:45 <invalidopcode> yup its still there
Jan 07 06:49:25 <invalidopcode> this is the kind of time when i which i could remove the battery
Jan 07 06:49:45 <invalidopcode> i have a feeling that something in the memory might be messed up
Jan 07 06:50:19 <jcsullins> yeah, but don't think removing battery will fix it...
Jan 07 06:50:35 <jcsullins> non-volatile memory ...
Jan 07 06:51:14 <invalidopcode> :/
Jan 07 06:52:02 <jcsullins> the suggested fix is calling HP and telling them that your TP won't "turn on" anymore ...
Jan 07 06:52:28 <jcsullins> (might want to leave out what happened just before that happened)
Jan 07 06:52:37 <invalidopcode> yeah, ill do that
Jan 07 06:52:44 <invalidopcode> thanks for all your help though
Jan 07 06:52:50 <jcsullins> np, sorry
Jan 07 09:27:09 <Brybry> wrea, did you ever manage to get external wifi working?
Jan 07 10:54:55 <loswillios> hi
Jan 07 10:55:25 <loswillios> whenever I open preware, it is stuck at "Reading Saved Package List" (after updating the sources)
Jan 07 10:55:49 <rwhitby> uninstall, reboot, reinstall.  it's a webOS 3.x bug
Jan 07 10:55:59 <loswillios> ok
Jan 07 10:56:05 <loswillios> thanks!
Jan 07 12:28:15 <elfcat4> how do I ask for help with executah  ?
Jan 07 18:42:08 <ka6sox-zzzz> anybody awake here?
Jan 07 18:42:22 <dwc-> maybe
Jan 07 18:42:39 <dwc-> looks like you're claiming to not be though ;)
Jan 07 18:47:02 <scoutcamper> ka6sox-zzzz, im awake
Jan 07 18:47:17 <PuffTheMagic_> i just moved wterm out of beta
Jan 07 18:47:56 <summatusmentis> I was just playing with the beta. Is there a way to enlarge the keyboard?
Jan 07 18:47:57 <wrea> awesome
Jan 07 18:49:56 <scoutcamper> PuffTheMagic_, CONGRATS!
Jan 07 18:50:10 * dwc- highfives PuffTheMagic_ 
Jan 07 19:18:53 <PuffTheMagic_> there are a few more vt bugs i think its pretty damn good now
Jan 07 21:27:00 <Brybry> wrea, I got it working \o/
Jan 07 21:27:14 <Brybry> though it's super high latency =/
Jan 07 21:34:47 <rsplenum> app tuckerbox registration error
Jan 07 21:35:01 <rsplenum> please help anybody ??
Jan 07 21:43:54 <wrea> Brybry, weird
Jan 07 21:44:21 <wrea> Brybry, so what's your aim with using the ext. wifi?
Jan 07 21:44:56 <Brybry> monitor mode eventually
Jan 07 21:45:47 <wrea> do any drivers for your card support it?
Jan 07 21:46:23 <wrea> I should also get back to my kismet package eventually
Jan 07 21:50:54 <Brybry> I think there were old drivers that supported it for my card but I dunno about the new ones
Jan 08 01:00:34 <Brybry> hmm, definitely need to build a newer version of kismet
Jan 08 01:00:42 <Brybry> I suspect that will not be fun
Jan 08 01:07:02 <wrea> what version have you build?
Jan 08 01:07:06 <wrea> built*
Jan 08 01:10:43 <Brybry> none yet, I grabbed the super old version from optware
Jan 08 01:11:07 <wrea> ah
Jan 08 01:11:47 <wrea> I have a makefile for 2011-03-R2
Jan 08 01:12:17 <wrea> Brybry, did the old one grab the ncurses-panel library?
Jan 08 01:12:59 <Brybry> no idea
Jan 08 01:13:22 <Brybry> I'm just pretty sure the old one/a build from 2007 knows nothing about mac80211 sources
Jan 08 01:13:36 <wrea> at least with the latest, it'll require building it for you to have the ncurses interface
Jan 08 01:13:52 <wrea> probably a newer version of libnl too
Jan 08 01:16:25 <wrea> would be nice to have a native interface though
Jan 08 01:18:53 <Brybry> I'll just be happy if it works at all =x
Jan 08 01:22:15 <wrea> well, i could try generating my packages again
Jan 08 01:30:05 <LarrySteeze> wrea: before webos, where does your experience lie?
Jan 08 01:34:49 <LarrySteeze> I'm wondering if anyone here with any android adb experience can lend me a quick hand
Jan 08 02:14:19 <wrea> Brybry, I got libnl and libpcap build
Jan 08 02:29:37 <wrea> Brybry, just working on kismet's package now
Jan 08 02:54:44 <elfcat4> how do I get help for executah  ?
Jan 08 02:59:15 <jcsullins> usually by stating what problem u are having ...
Jan 08 02:59:27 <jcsullins> nevermind
