**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Nov 13 02:59:58 2012 Nov 13 03:29:27 DocScrutinizer05: FYI, I got confirmation you're on the e-mail alias now, along with the others. :) The last piece of the puzzle is now in place. You're all set. Enjoy! Nov 13 04:13:59 SpeedEvil: got info on the open side of it? Nov 13 04:15:34 the flucard thingy, no Nov 13 04:21:20 hmm, no google results for source code :| Nov 13 04:22:29 no. Nov 13 04:22:37 it'd need some hacking Nov 13 04:22:47 well, I just want the kernel code they have by default :P Nov 13 04:23:59 that too Nov 13 04:40:54 * Luke-Jr shoots Trek an infringement notice Nov 13 07:56:17 how the hell is a nokia e7 still $300+ ? Nov 13 07:56:23 hehe Nov 13 07:56:41 i'm waiting for $200 lol Nov 13 07:56:54 i want a functional non crap phone with a qwerty Nov 13 07:57:09 * Macer sighs for his n900 Nov 13 07:57:16 i'm using it again now tethered Nov 13 07:58:03 * ruskie is still happy with his N900 Nov 13 07:58:27 i would be too if 1. i still had tmobile 2. the sim reader sill worked ;) Nov 13 07:58:35 well.. modem i suppose Nov 13 07:59:02 i still use it but now it is just a glorified nit ;) Nov 13 08:40:19 chem|st: Fuck them haters on the mailing list. You dun good. Nov 13 08:44:13 vi_: whats happening in there? everyone talks about this but I still don't know the details :\ Nov 13 08:48:17 Skry: Estel's last stand. Nov 13 08:48:39 He is all up on the mailling list behaving like a complete ballbag. Nov 13 08:49:36 He is making multiple accounts and trolling like a pro. Nov 13 08:49:45 I wish someone would perma-ban him. Nov 13 08:49:51 Deputise me, I will do it. Nov 13 08:50:47 he seems to be quite confusing character, I never had any shit from him though. Looks to be the kinda guy who goes from normal to douchebag mode in seconds. Nov 13 08:51:43 Banning is silly; you have mail filters for that.\ Nov 13 08:53:54 vi_: which list? Nov 13 08:53:56 vi_: are you convinced it is estel behind this Dd... whatever account? Nov 13 08:54:54 fasta: maemo-community Nov 13 08:55:41 freemangordon: Yes. Nov 13 08:55:49 JCdenton==estel. Nov 13 08:55:56 ok Nov 13 08:56:05 His faux 'engrish' is fake as all hell. Nov 13 08:56:16 He even 'signs' his messages. Nov 13 08:57:00 Consider his use of the personal pronoun 'me'. Nov 13 08:57:11 It is UTTERLY inconsistent. Nov 13 08:58:11 vi_: ok, I am not arguing, it is just my English is not good enough to make a deffinitive conclusion Nov 13 08:58:22 People who have a very poor grasp of english are usually consistent with their mistakes, unless they are incomprehensibly bad. Nov 13 08:58:41 Of course not, however I must justify such outragoues claims. Nov 13 08:59:06 Of course I could be wrong, however my bullshit detector is is going apeshit. Nov 13 08:59:14 Also, the identical IP addresses. Nov 13 09:01:07 http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:HhXk-v0o-BcJ:forums.internettablettalk.com/showthread.php%3Fp%3D1292984+JCDenton+maemo&cd=8&hl=bg&ct=clnk&gl=bg&client=firefox-a Nov 13 09:01:15 yep, seems like estel Nov 13 09:04:16 Yup. Nov 13 09:04:41 is there some absolute-point-of-no-return post by estel which resulted in banning him? I mean, I don't think banning is the right thing to do unless he is seriously attacking/harming someone. I don't know nothing about this, just saying. Nov 13 09:05:11 Perhaps he knows 'estel' the notion of the person and the account is foobar and wants to reinvent himself, to create a distance from the 'estel' account. Nov 13 09:05:28 After all, he is a maemo obsessive. Nov 13 09:05:49 Skry: He has proven beyond all reasonable doubt he is a turd. Nov 13 09:05:49 Skry: he was banned for creating the second (and maybe third) account Nov 13 09:05:57 freemangordon: Fourth. Nov 13 09:06:01 ok Nov 13 09:06:17 makes no difference after the second :) Nov 13 09:06:34 There is only so much civillity that can be allowed. Ultimatley, you have to execute some criminals. Nov 13 09:06:39 For the greater good. Nov 13 09:07:31 I wonder what's with "al body" replacement ;) Nov 13 09:09:17 maybe he means jimmy's body or hoffa's body... Nov 13 09:09:24 I have stayed away from that thread. I cringe when I think how it will turn out. Nov 13 09:09:52 well, if he is actually hurting the community then good riddance Nov 13 09:09:59 Skry: He is. Nov 13 09:10:05 He used to be cool. Nov 13 09:10:09 But now he is not. Nov 13 09:13:02 that's something I've wondered, most of the posts I've seen from him usually make at least some sense, that's why I'm asking about this as I've personally not have had any trouble with the guy, quite contrary. Nov 13 09:13:26 What should one do with people that are in a support role that are too incompetent to help? Nov 13 09:14:24 In this case, I am the customer; I think I should just find another company. Nov 13 09:15:20 then do so, there is no excuse for poor customer service. Nov 13 09:15:25 It's the typical account manager role; completely clueless of anything. Nov 13 09:15:48 If it was my company, I would never ever let incompetent people talk to clients. Nov 13 09:16:10 I also talked to some other company once in the same sector. It was like day and night. Nov 13 09:16:25 yeah, bad business. You could report that employee to his/her boss? Nov 13 09:16:32 They let me wait for 2 minutes and they were terribly sorry, etc. Nov 13 09:16:49 After 2 minutes I got an actually competent person on the line. Nov 13 09:17:13 Skry: for some reason completely unclear to me, estel's last about 50-100 posts on TMO are total BS Nov 13 09:17:38 freemangordon: some people get mentally ill, not saying that estel did. Nov 13 09:17:56 But given the size of the TMO community, someone will. Nov 13 09:18:15 I know I did :D Nov 13 09:18:27 accusing woody and ivgalves for everything imaginable Nov 13 09:18:36 Do I understand correctly that the forum doesn't exist anymore after 31 dec? Nov 13 09:18:44 fasta: no Nov 13 09:18:53 freemangordon: Perhaps he going through some mental hardships IRL. Nov 13 09:19:12 "hardships IRL"? Nov 13 09:19:32 freemangordon: lost parents, etc. Nov 13 09:20:01 might very well be the case, who knows Nov 13 09:20:04 fasta: maemo.org domain should be/is transferred to Hildon Foundation Nov 13 09:20:06 Estel has also done some good things, I think. Nov 13 09:20:19 He has. Nov 13 09:20:24 I think he/she has helped me a few times when I was a complete n00b. Nov 13 09:20:26 vi_: aah, got it now. Possible, yes Nov 13 09:20:36 fasta: estel is he Nov 13 09:20:52 So, people burning him now isn't really nice. Nov 13 09:21:13 fasta: noone is burning him. aiui Nov 13 09:21:34 fasta: If anything, we are humanising him. Nov 13 09:21:42 Ok, I don't know the details. Nov 13 09:21:44 Right now that is. Nov 13 09:21:57 :nod: Nov 13 09:22:13 Maemo community seems to be one consisting of the most consistent and reasonable persons in general. Nov 13 09:23:51 at least used to Nov 13 09:24:41 though TBH I miss abill from time to time, it was always fun to read his posts :D Nov 13 09:25:09 freemangordon: Wow, you are full of empathy today! Nov 13 09:25:29 vi_: today? I am always like that. Nov 13 09:25:50 vi_: remember when I was trying to make abill do something useful? Nov 13 09:29:14 Has anyone figured out how to 'roll your own' emmc images yet? Nov 13 09:29:54 vi_: that should be pretty clear how to be done, afaik the problem is with licensing (closed stuff) Nov 13 09:30:27 freemangordon: this is for my own image. Nov 13 09:30:30 also, IDGAF. Nov 13 09:31:01 I will happily host ALL the dodgy stuff that no one will touch due to nokia licensing. Nov 13 09:31:27 flash 10 deb Nov 13 09:31:32 pirate sygic maps Nov 13 09:31:36 pirate docs to go. Nov 13 09:31:44 harmattan codecs. Nov 13 09:32:05 vi_: host them on i2p for your own security. Nov 13 09:32:11 In fact, if I could just figure out how to set up a PLF repo. Nov 13 09:32:13 vi_: I know, and the IP is no NAT gate afaict... on the mailinglist people use their real names to be trustworthy Nov 13 09:32:37 ~i2p Nov 13 09:32:41 vi_: his statement that he was banned for the sole of one post is not true Nov 13 09:33:12 chem|st: You have been more than leniant and fair. It is a difficult position being a moderator. Nov 13 09:33:27 4 people reported 2 different posts, two of them where reported after moderation Nov 13 09:33:53 and I gave him infractions to have him out for 3 days not to proof a point... Nov 13 09:34:17 vi_: it is a bare wonder I did not ban him ages ago Nov 13 09:34:39 getting personal with moderators gets you banned elsewhere Nov 13 09:35:43 ~plf Nov 13 09:35:44 i heard plf is penguin liberation front, http://plf.zarb.org Nov 13 09:35:55 getting onto reggie and DocScrutinizer51, *personal* attacks does not mean that you have to use bad language on them but bark Nov 13 09:39:52 yeah, going personal on someone should not be tolerated Nov 13 09:40:03 Oh wow, emmc image unpacks. Nov 13 09:40:17 Skry: reading the mailinglist? Nov 13 09:40:18 and it is full of shit. Nov 13 09:40:38 chem|st: nope, that's why I was asking about this all. Maybe I should. Nov 13 09:41:56 Skry: estel is trying to make a point, after chanmods and tmo-moderators have mad one already, now he is after moderators admins chanops and council instead of only chanops and council... Nov 13 09:42:13 the latter is one and the same person btw Nov 13 09:42:18 So I can unpack emmc image, how do I 're-pack' it? Nov 13 09:42:35 vi_: uh so it will flash? Nov 13 09:42:45 chem|st: yes. Nov 13 09:42:49 ask robbie Nov 13 09:43:00 He only did a rootfs image. Nov 13 09:43:23 I think it is the same archive isn't it? Nov 13 09:43:25 Although I now see there is not actually anything of any value in emmc image. Nov 13 09:43:40 100mb of shit music and videos. Nov 13 09:43:45 right Nov 13 09:43:48 40mb of maemo user guide in every language. Nov 13 09:43:57 thought you want to pack your own stuff in there Nov 13 09:44:37 chem|st: Not really, I want to know how to put stuff in opt. Nov 13 09:45:06 Although stripping out this 208mb of garbage could be nice. Nov 13 09:46:17 I think it is time to have a cssu flashable image. Nov 13 09:46:28 LOADED UP WITH 1337 WAREZ. Nov 13 09:47:38 So /opt is generated on first boot from stuff in rootfs image. Nov 13 09:48:33 yes Nov 13 09:48:37 That is a problem, because it relies on fitting everything into rootfs first. Nov 13 09:48:52 I've actually been hoping someone created such image (without teh leetest warez though) Nov 13 09:50:10 Although, Mydocs is specified as a fat32 filesystem image in emmc. Nov 13 09:50:45 So one could conclude that it is possible to specify an ext3 image for /opt Nov 13 09:51:01 yes Nov 13 09:51:35 The problem being unpack only extracts the fat32 image. Nov 13 09:52:32 and the emmc bin appears to be a wrapper containing the partition geometry and the FS image. Nov 13 09:53:33 partition geom is separate and rest are raw partition images? Nov 13 09:54:02 or is it just one big dump of emmc in whole? Nov 13 09:54:03 Skry: If you open the emmc bin in a hexeditor you can see the partition geometry at the start of the file. Nov 13 09:54:30 ahh, ok Nov 13 09:58:12 vi_, Skry, the emmc image is created with fiasco-gen, its a raw image with the layout file added to the header Nov 13 09:58:37 MohammadAG: hay Mo. Nov 13 09:58:59 Hey vi_ :) Nov 13 09:59:06 Do you know if it is possible to add add other filesystem images to the emmc image. Nov 13 09:59:11 How the fuck do i tab in this piece of shit Nov 13 09:59:20 MohammadAG: ...with a tab key? Nov 13 09:59:21 Hmm, havent tried it Nov 13 09:59:23 iPad? Nov 13 09:59:29 :P Nov 13 09:59:35 No, sort of left the apple world Nov 13 09:59:47 back to the roots? Nov 13 09:59:54 MohammadAG: OS/2?? Nov 13 09:59:55 As good as ios was, they stopped innovating Nov 13 10:00:11 ios, IOS or iOS? Nov 13 10:00:12 vi_: naah, DOS 3.30 Nov 13 10:00:13 I tried the thing i stabbed the most Nov 13 10:00:22 Android Nov 13 10:00:33 ... Nov 13 10:00:35 and??? Nov 13 10:00:50 Is it really the green lands of milk and honey? Nov 13 10:01:01 Are the legends true? Nov 13 10:01:06 No, dalvik is still crap Nov 13 10:01:14 Please do elaborate Nov 13 10:01:33 Out of 1GB RAM I always have about 300 or less free Nov 13 10:01:46 Do you ever run out of memory? Nov 13 10:01:51 Yes Nov 13 10:02:00 Oh, I never do Nov 13 10:02:08 In which case it decides to free up memory by killing background tasks Nov 13 10:02:08 What happens when you run out of memory? Nov 13 10:02:18 Such as the launcher Nov 13 10:02:28 :D Nov 13 10:02:37 That's... never happened to me Nov 13 10:02:41 I've moved from touchwiz to nova launcher and it seems a lot better Nov 13 10:02:42 deepy\SIGSEGV: A cartoon paperclip appears and asks: Nov 13 10:02:54 I see you have run out of memory! would you like to : Nov 13 10:02:58 deepy\SIGSEGV: which device? Nov 13 10:03:00 .reboot Nov 13 10:03:04 .poweroff. Nov 13 10:03:06 Nexus One and LG 4X HD Nov 13 10:03:07 .crash Nov 13 10:03:16 .write a letter Nov 13 10:03:19 Hmm Nov 13 10:03:33 SGS3 with Jelly bean Nov 13 10:03:39 Oh, I don't have JB Nov 13 10:03:51 I have... uh, something 4.x Nov 13 10:03:51 Must admit that google's unbloated shit runs better Nov 13 10:04:03 ICS? Nov 13 10:04:16 yeah Nov 13 10:04:31 The only thing that convinced me to try android was jelly bean :) Nov 13 10:04:37 I heard LG got a lot of kudos by not fiddling too much with it Nov 13 10:04:42 What makes JB different from ICS? Nov 13 10:04:51 Just like iOS5 got me into apple stuff and iOS6 made me leave it :p Nov 13 10:04:51 Apart from it being faster Nov 13 10:05:04 General improvements Nov 13 10:05:08 Such as? Nov 13 10:05:09 Project butter being one Nov 13 10:05:22 They changed scrolling physics Nov 13 10:05:32 But thats not mentioned anywhete Nov 13 10:05:51 You need to have two identical devices side by side and scroll them to notice the difference Nov 13 10:06:13 Google Now is actually useful Nov 13 10:06:23 Location history kind of surprised me Nov 13 10:06:30 okay project butter looks cool Nov 13 10:06:37 The device maps my location everywhere Nov 13 10:06:55 I have a full history of where i went since i got the device Nov 13 10:07:20 hmm, what is that useful for? Nov 13 10:07:23 I'm assuming i can turn that off but what the hell, they have a month of the places I frequent Nov 13 10:07:46 freemangordon: what was that pub we went to on Friday called? moments Nov 13 10:08:17 what? you should drink less, location history won;t halp you Nov 13 10:08:20 freemangordon: alibi Nov 13 10:08:24 *help Nov 13 10:08:42 nice Nov 13 10:08:49 it'll tell me where the pub was! :) Nov 13 10:08:53 * MohammadAG continues writing Elop's suicide note Nov 13 10:09:53 we have S3 in the office, some SW development is going on.

You need Pali's battery plugin replacement. Nov 13 11:52:43 vi_, yup, it includes Pali's shiny new battery driver.

Nov 13 11:58:25 thanks, already sipping Nov 13 12:00:29 vi_: the fuck do you want Nov 13 12:00:33 i was at the uni Nov 13 12:00:38 oic Nov 13 12:00:53 vi_: it's strongly suggested you also install kp52 and the new battery meter Nov 13 12:01:01 you probably don't need the last one, but it's much cuter Nov 13 12:01:18 in theory you shouldn't need to modprobe anything, /etc/event.d/bme deals with loading the appropriate modules Nov 13 12:02:11 will this be in extras once builder is back? Nov 13 12:02:17 how's that supposedd to workß Nov 13 12:02:20 ß Nov 13 12:02:23 ??? Nov 13 12:02:24 ßßßß! Nov 13 12:02:28 damn! Nov 13 12:02:31 großß Nov 13 12:02:33 what do you mean how's that supposed to work? :o Nov 13 12:02:52 events.d Nov 13 12:02:57 bme Nov 13 12:03:05 you probably don't need the last one, but it's much cuter Nov 13 12:03:05 the "bme" event file is replaced, the package is called "bme" Nov 13 12:03:09 ^what does this mean? Nov 13 12:03:31 will both new battery meter and kp52 make it into extrans? Nov 13 12:03:37 this obviously means that you won't get bme started on boot anymore Nov 13 12:03:45 vi_: as i understood it, "everything" is correctly replicated, so anything that doesn't talk directly to the bme binary should work the same as before Nov 13 12:03:46 DocScrutinizer05: indeed Nov 13 12:03:56 it would be hard to start it, considering it's not even there Nov 13 12:04:03 NO one talks to bme binary. Nov 13 12:04:07 BME binary is a dick. Nov 13 12:04:25 vi_: libbmeipc is also replaced, with something that reads the values from the modules Nov 13 12:04:38 ok, so a package is hiding the bme service from starting, did I read that right? Nov 13 12:04:49 which is also called "bme" Nov 13 12:04:56 so I have installed kp52 package, modules and now flasher. Nov 13 12:05:03 kp52 should now be flashed. Nov 13 12:05:27 Where do I get this bme replacement? Nov 13 12:05:41 vi_: ask the man Nov 13 12:05:45 ... Nov 13 12:05:49 he just joined! Nov 13 12:05:55 jon_y: we now have a kernel module that does pretty much everything for charging. AIUI we got events.d/bme that configures the module Nov 13 12:06:01 Pali: hello. Nov 13 12:06:07 DocScrutinizer05: "configures" Nov 13 12:06:11 it's just a modprobe :) Nov 13 12:06:21 vi_, hi Nov 13 12:06:31 DocScrutinizer05: ok, this new package is hiding the nokia version? Nov 13 12:06:35 where may I find your bme replacement package? Nov 13 12:06:38 and it requires kp52 to work? Nov 13 12:06:45 jon_y: it's an "upgrade" to the bme package from nokia Nov 13 12:07:00 Ok, sort of like all the cssu packages Nov 13 12:07:04 yep Nov 13 12:07:04 kerio: I do not think the word upgrade does it justice. Nov 13 12:07:10 where is kp52 anyway? Nov 13 12:07:21 jon_y: Hiding in the kp51 thread. Nov 13 12:07:27 ok Nov 13 12:07:40 jon_y: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1265427&postcount=141 Nov 13 12:07:49 !!experimental and can cause hw problmes!!: http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pali/rx51-bme-replacement/ Nov 13 12:07:57 you have been warned! Nov 13 12:08:11 what kinds of problems? Nov 13 12:08:23 Pali: It is on my experimental n900. Nov 13 12:08:24 for example exploding n900 Nov 13 12:08:45 everything... Nov 13 12:08:59 it might catch fire? :) Nov 13 12:09:48 Pali, my N900 just exploded in glorious awesomeness when I installed kp52 + open-bme Nov 13 12:09:53 vi_: for instance, my n900 often doesn't want to shut down :( Nov 13 12:10:43 rebooting... Nov 13 12:11:26 ...it booted. Nov 13 12:11:28 yay Nov 13 12:11:33 i hope you had a BM backup :) Nov 13 12:11:39 kerio: what do you mean 'not want to shut down'? Nov 13 12:11:48 kerio: This is my stunt n900. Nov 13 12:11:54 kerio, isn't shutdown dsme's job? Nov 13 12:11:54 vi_: i shut it down, and after a moment it starts up in ACT_DEAD mode Nov 13 12:11:59 Gives electric shocks and high pitched noises Nov 13 12:12:04 i bet it's just some RTC confusion Nov 13 12:12:16 kerio: wacky. Nov 13 12:12:26 deepy\SIGSEGV: go back to nethack, Adeon needs your points Nov 13 12:12:29 kerio: Something to do with the way usb is left at shutdown. Nov 13 12:12:33 Or something. Nov 13 12:12:34 I'm at work Nov 13 12:12:39 ...so? Nov 13 12:12:43 Why aren't you in SIGSEGV yet? Nov 13 12:12:46 vi_: maybe, but the led isn't turned on Nov 13 12:12:49 Just never switch it off...fixed. Nov 13 12:13:04 deepy\SIGSEGV: ECHAN, also because i'm waiting to join the clan that's about to win the day before devnull ends :) Nov 13 12:13:08 vi_: oh, of course Nov 13 12:13:09 but still Nov 13 12:13:21 devnull ends? Nov 13 12:13:26 SIGSEGV? Nov 13 12:13:32 vi_: it's a nethack tournament Nov 13 12:13:32 wtf are you talking about? Nov 13 12:13:36 WHOOAAA> Nov 13 12:13:38 as i said, ECHAN Nov 13 12:13:45 ... Nov 13 12:13:51 to bad I suck at nhack. Nov 13 12:13:58 I just die all the time. Nov 13 12:14:00 vi_: me too Nov 13 12:14:05 That's sort of the point of nethack Nov 13 12:14:09 But you're supposed to have fun doing it Nov 13 12:14:10 my longest ascension streak is only 3 Nov 13 12:14:26 my longest ascension streak is 0. Nov 13 12:14:41 I'm winning by negative one Nov 13 12:14:49 Is it worth doing the gnomish mines? Nov 13 12:14:58 kerio: blame new worldclock &| alarmui Nov 13 12:14:59 vi_: join #nethack pls Nov 13 12:15:03 DocScrutinizer05: indeed Nov 13 12:16:00 kerio: you're lucky since there seems to be NO documented way to remove 'stale' resp 'orphaned' alarms from alarmd Nov 13 12:16:07 D: Nov 13 12:16:15 is there no way to list them? Nov 13 12:16:31 DocScrutinizer05, manual edit that ini file Nov 13 12:16:34 there's an API is you're lucky Nov 13 12:16:57 Pali: you know path? Nov 13 12:17:09 something in /var/ Nov 13 12:17:12 "/var/cache/alarm.d/" Nov 13 12:17:16 :nod: ;-P Nov 13 12:20:12 what is the difference between binutils and binutils-2.22? Nov 13 12:21:24 nvm, binutils is 2.18 old Nov 13 12:23:29 Hi, does anyone have contact info for the Diablo extras-devel builder? Nov 13 12:23:44 It's totally broken. Nov 13 12:25:15 X-Fade: ping Nov 13 12:25:47 X-Fade: wiki not editable is a major PITA. any ETA for fix? Nov 13 12:26:37 tmx, noy only diablo, but every extras-devel distribution Nov 13 12:26:42 vi_: you left! :( Nov 13 12:27:30 Pali, I see. I don't mind packages not being built, but it also spams me with and error message every two minutes... Nov 13 12:28:28 DocScrutinizer05, btw which part of maemo infrastructure working now? Nov 13 12:28:54 I'm as wise as you're Nov 13 12:30:16 Pali: maemo infra still maintained by Nemein, not board or council. So I can't gather better info than you Nov 13 12:30:36 ok Nov 13 12:31:34 GODDAMMIT WHY DID MY N900 TURN ON RIGHT NOW Nov 13 12:31:49 THIS MAKES NO SENSE, THERE'S NOTHING IN alarm_queue.ini!!!! Nov 13 12:32:00 I'M ANGRY AND I NEED TO DISPERSE MY ANGER Nov 13 12:32:09 at least we got several wiki backups now ( I created a bz2 and an uncompressed one FWIW) Nov 13 12:32:13 DocScrutinizer05: how much power does ACT_DEAD use? Nov 13 12:32:16 kerio: power button got stuck? Nov 13 12:32:26 kerio: quite a bit Nov 13 12:32:32 freemangordon: it would've turned on, otherwise Nov 13 12:32:50 hm, maybe alarm_queue.ini.bak is what's fucking it up? Nov 13 12:32:52 hmm. btw why do you think it is in act_dead? Nov 13 12:33:07 freemangordon: because... it's in act_dead? Nov 13 12:33:10 i know what it looks like Nov 13 12:33:27 it turns on, then the screen goes blank, and "turning it on" has a slightly different led and it doesn't vibrate Nov 13 12:33:32 kerio: BTW you may check in syslog wor bootreason iirc Nov 13 12:33:41 *for Nov 13 12:34:24 kerio: make sure you got no boostmode enabled Nov 13 12:34:31 i haven't Nov 13 12:34:48 kerio: if you have no syslog it is somewhere in /proc/ or /sys/ I believe Nov 13 12:34:59 /proc/bootreason is sw_rst Nov 13 12:35:06 wat Nov 13 12:35:09 at least the last Nov 13 12:35:18 software reset Nov 13 12:35:29 chem|st: i know, that's why i wat Nov 13 12:35:32 chem|st: won't do the job, as it is for the latest boot Nov 13 12:35:40 yep Nov 13 12:35:44 it goes in act dead, i try to turn it on, it resets Nov 13 12:35:45 get syslog Nov 13 12:35:52 fine, i'll reenable syslog Nov 13 12:36:00 freemangordon: I know, the question was why it booted up Nov 13 12:36:13 you exit act_dead with reboot iirc, that is where sw_rst comes from Nov 13 12:36:21 oh, so that's normal Nov 13 12:36:27 basically any enabled wakeup-IRQ can start it Nov 13 12:36:54 chem|st: he can get that only from dmesg output in syslog Nov 13 12:36:57 except of course when properly shut down, where only VBUS and powerbutton and RTC can power it up afaik Nov 13 12:36:59 this is seriously weird, it turned back on after a little while Nov 13 12:37:02 thought in anycase pwr_btn if not started on its own Nov 13 12:37:31 Pali: where in /sys do i find the data listed from bq27x00? Nov 13 12:37:33 kerio: no charger/usb connected, right? Nov 13 12:37:36 freemangordon: ofc Nov 13 12:37:40 kerio: there are "every minute" alarm modes for RTC Nov 13 12:37:50 vi__, do you know unix? :-) Nov 13 12:37:57 the find it yourself :-) Nov 13 12:38:01 DocScrutinizer05: it shuts off properly if i halt from rescueOS, though Nov 13 12:38:03 hah! Nov 13 12:38:04 find /sys -name "bq*" Nov 13 12:38:08 :-) Nov 13 12:38:14 also, i have no alarms apart for the silly HAM update Nov 13 12:38:18 lol, pali Nov 13 12:38:22 (set on a year, iirc) Nov 13 12:38:27 vi__, it is in /sys/class/power_supply/ Nov 13 12:38:57 kerio: what happens if you remove the pattery long enough to reset RTC? Nov 13 12:39:01 *battery Nov 13 12:39:05 freemangordon: it would be like 10 minutes D: Nov 13 12:39:25 well, get syslog then Nov 13 12:39:27 derp Nov 13 12:39:29 i got syslog Nov 13 12:39:39 i was using the wrong n900. Nov 13 12:39:45 vi__: hahahah Nov 13 12:43:26 hrmpf, nothing in the syslog Nov 13 12:43:41 kerio: what is bootreason? Nov 13 12:43:46 sw_rst Nov 13 12:43:53 not the latest Nov 13 12:43:53 because i turned it on from the power button Nov 13 12:43:54 oh Nov 13 12:43:59 the one before that Nov 13 12:44:31 Nov 13 13:36:57 kerio900 kernel: [ 1460.333679] Bootup reason: sw_rst Nov 13 12:44:35 what the fuck Nov 13 12:45:21 that's the first bootup Nov 13 12:45:49 so... it just reboots instead of shutting down? Nov 13 12:45:52 Could've rebooted half way through power up Nov 13 12:46:06 ooh, getting 0/0 battery level for Open DSME. Nov 13 12:46:07 MohammadAG: no, there are two powerups there Nov 13 12:46:12 s/DSME/BME/ Nov 13 12:46:12 Hurrian meant: ooh, getting 0/0 battery level for Open BME. Nov 13 12:46:30 kerio: both are sw_rst? Nov 13 12:46:34 MohammadAG: yep Nov 13 12:46:45 Hmm Nov 13 12:47:09 ok, i shat down (sic!) from the menu now, let's see what syslog ends up as Nov 13 12:47:20 Wtf does sic mean Nov 13 12:47:45 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sic Nov 13 12:47:48 Been seeing it more than yolo lately Nov 13 12:48:37 edging like a mad cunt. Nov 13 12:48:47 freemangordon: anyway, it's your and _ade_'s fault Nov 13 12:48:48 SWAG motherfucker. Nov 13 12:49:05 meh, uncalibrated battery. ugh. Nov 13 12:49:25 Hurrian: I have that also. Nov 13 12:49:41 It is not true though. Nov 13 12:49:51 whelp, time to drain battery to almost-dead and recharge. Nov 13 12:51:16 http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1938976 ohohoho Nov 13 12:51:22 Pali: i think *it is* your fault! Nov 13 12:51:31 vi_, wat do Nov 13 12:51:42 Hurrian: bust a move Nov 13 12:52:09 MohammadAG, hi! Nov 13 12:52:45 Pali: dsme doesn't know the charger is off apparently? Nov 13 12:52:47 there's a "?" there Nov 13 12:53:06 'DSME: shutdown request received from pid 937: /sbin/mce' Nov 13 12:53:24 my tools does not tell mce to shutdown Nov 13 12:53:29 i told mce to shutdown Nov 13 12:53:31 via powerbutton Nov 13 12:53:36 mce told dsme to shut down Nov 13 12:53:40 ok Nov 13 12:53:42 dsme decided to enter act_dead mode instead Nov 13 12:53:44 and what is problem then? Nov 13 12:53:45 Heya Pali Nov 13 12:53:50 the only weird thing is that "charger: off(?)" i think Nov 13 12:54:23 MohammadAG, first question for you: Do you have this harmatan flasher? http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?p=23200&postcount=181 Nov 13 12:54:48 seems that this version has more options as that from nokia Nov 13 12:54:54 from tablets-dev Nov 13 12:55:00 I hope I still have it Nov 13 12:55:15 can you try to find it? Nov 13 12:55:22 It was from the the N950's beta1 ocf Nov 13 12:55:24 Sec Nov 13 12:55:24 this is the complete syslog, if anyone can help me... http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1938990 Nov 13 12:55:31 it stops at some point, because mozilla pastebin sucks Nov 13 12:57:27 MohammadAG, second question: you developed new battery appet: https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/status-area-applet-battery Year ago I created merge request for it and you wrote me that you merge my changes after you commit your chnages Nov 13 12:58:12 but until now you did not commited nothing... Nov 13 12:58:18 I actually forgot about that Nov 13 12:58:31 but I've been away for about two months for personal reasons Nov 13 12:58:33 I created new patches for your applet and now it is complete Nov 13 12:58:49 in my git repo: https://gitorious.org/~pali/community-ssu/pali-status-area-applet-battery Nov 13 12:59:17 Pali, I'm getting the same ACT_DEAD problems with shutdown with BME replacement Nov 13 12:59:40 yay, i'm not crazy! ^_^ Nov 13 12:59:46 MohammadAG, if you are not against I will push my changes to cssu repo Nov 13 13:00:01 hmm Nov 13 13:00:05 can't seem to open firefox Nov 13 13:00:11 what date was the flasher again Pali? Nov 13 13:00:17 Pali, no, not against it :) Nov 13 13:00:38 flasher 3.11.5 (May 17 2011) Harmattan Nov 13 13:00:40 ok Nov 13 13:01:20 Hurrian, check if you have older replacement version of hald-addon-bme which creating huge log in /tmp/ Nov 13 13:01:34 if yes upload log somewhere Nov 13 13:01:51 Pali, by replacment version you mean 1.0-1? Nov 13 13:02:01 if no wait until I compile last version of hald-addon-bme with log Nov 13 13:02:16 Hurrian, every replacement version has string 1.0-1 Nov 13 13:02:18 I'm using the Nov 10 2012 version, newest on website Nov 13 13:02:40 check if you have file hald-addon-bme file in /tmp/ Nov 13 13:03:04 last version from my website is without log Nov 13 13:03:15 Pali, think I don't have it Nov 13 13:03:18 but just a sec to be sure Nov 13 13:03:25 seems that huge log is still needed Nov 13 13:03:36 going to compile version with log Nov 13 13:05:14 Hurrian, new verision with log output is on website Nov 13 13:05:18 Pali: i think that dsme gets confused and doesn't know there's not a charger connected Nov 13 13:05:30 kerio, install new version Nov 13 13:05:36 and I need log Nov 13 13:05:51 log is in /tmp/ Nov 13 13:06:11 anyone got the 22-6 OCF? Nov 13 13:07:17 Pali, how long should we run it before sending you log? Nov 13 13:07:23 I found flasher with google: http://www.martindengler.com/proj/n950-flasher-beta1/ Nov 13 13:07:28 Pali: isn't /tmp a tmpfs? Nov 13 13:07:28 flasher 3.11.5 (May 17 2011) Harmattan Nov 13 13:07:33 flasher 3.11.3 (Apr 28 2011) Harmattan Nov 13 13:07:46 kerio, yes it is tmpfs (removed after reboot) Nov 13 13:07:51 Pali, :) Nov 13 13:08:00 Pali: it's kinda useless, isn't it? :( Nov 13 13:08:10 Hurrian, upload log before going to shutdown Nov 13 13:08:30 Pali, alright Nov 13 13:08:37 hald-addon-bme does not watch any going to shutdown events... Nov 13 13:09:10 MohammadAG, problem is that version is static linked (useless for LD_PRELOAD hacking) Nov 13 13:09:16 Alright Pali, rebooting. Nov 13 13:09:18 Hurrian: no problem with act-dead here. Nov 13 13:09:33 Pali, all of them are Nov 13 13:09:40 MohammadAG, but if you had also static linked version that it is useless too Nov 13 13:09:49 Pali, reason is the N950 images came as one big .bin file Nov 13 13:09:50 version from deb package on tablets-dev is dynamic linked Nov 13 13:09:58 and you simply ran that and it runs flasher from a tmp dir Nov 13 13:10:01 so it won't install deps Nov 13 13:10:12 yes, I know Nov 13 13:10:34 isn't it just libusb that's linked? Nov 13 13:12:40 Pali: http://pastebin.com/aVJ32TS5 Nov 13 13:13:29 fresh startup, and the open status-menu-battery indicator reports "Battery 0% 0/0 mAh" Nov 13 13:13:42 libusb, libc, ... Nov 13 13:13:43 Pali: most probably it has something to do with kernel modules rather than hald-addon-bme Nov 13 13:14:00 Hurrian: are you using advanced power monitor? Nov 13 13:14:13 Hurrian: are you using KP51? Nov 13 13:14:36 kerio, KP52. vi_, nope. Nov 13 13:14:48 Hurrian: have you calibrated your battery? Nov 13 13:14:55 i mean, your bq27k Nov 13 13:15:17 Hurrian, wait 60s Nov 13 13:15:18 kerio, no, uncalibrated. Nov 13 13:15:20 hm Nov 13 13:15:20 apparently. Nov 13 13:15:32 I'll drain it under rescueOS, and recharge it. Nov 13 13:15:32 and also check if you have loaded rx51_battery kernel driver Nov 13 13:15:41 Pali, rx51_battery is in lsmod Nov 13 13:15:47 ok Nov 13 13:15:49 Hurrian: Where did you get a 'status-menu-battery' indicator that provides numerical values? Nov 13 13:15:57 Hurrian: try modprobe -r rx51_battery Nov 13 13:16:00 vi_, cssu-testing thread? Nov 13 13:16:07 vi_: it's Pali's :D Nov 13 13:16:44 kerio, unloading rx51_battery does nothing Nov 13 13:16:54 Hurrian problem is that power_supply_charge_full is 0 Nov 13 13:17:17 Pali: i thought that an uncalibrated bq27k still provided dummy values Nov 13 13:17:17 Pali, so I need to calibrate? Nov 13 13:17:40 Hurrian, it battery is not calibrated it fallbacking to calculation from voltage Nov 13 13:17:57 Hurrian, please also check if you have last pre release kp52 Nov 13 13:18:18 kerio: I know it is pali's but where the F do I get it? Nov 13 13:18:23 uname -a should report Nov 10 15:18 Nov 13 13:18:37 vi_, look at CSSU testing thread Nov 13 13:18:43 dammit, mine is oct 12 D: Nov 13 13:18:54 Pali: you should say when you make new releases dammit Nov 13 13:19:02 kerio: he says Nov 13 13:19:20 but as ususlly you CBA to read Nov 13 13:19:24 Pali: Sat Nov 10 15:18:56 Nov 13 13:19:37 kerio, I wrote it in kp thread Nov 13 13:19:38 pretty sure that's the latest Nov 13 13:19:42 Hurrian, ok Nov 13 13:19:52 Hurrian, then I need output from lshal Nov 13 13:20:06 kerio: install lates KP and check if your problem still persist Nov 13 13:20:12 *latest Nov 13 13:20:30 iirc there was some problem in some of bq drivers Nov 13 13:20:39 but... everything works for me :s Nov 13 13:20:47 no, it does not Nov 13 13:20:47 Pali, wait a bit Nov 13 13:20:50 apart for that thing that also fails for Hurrian Nov 13 13:20:52 you cannot shutdown Nov 13 13:21:11 freemangordon: that's a detail ;) Nov 13 13:21:47 no, that most probbaly means someone detects a charger is connected Nov 13 13:22:11 freemangordon: the logs say that dsme is confused about that, yes Nov 13 13:22:19 and instead of shutting down, it reboots into ACT_DEAD Nov 13 13:22:39 hrmpf, TMO's interface is so bad Nov 13 13:22:44 i can't find the link to the debs Nov 13 13:23:15 I can confirm, my test device also shows 0 for all items in status menu battery indicator. Nov 13 13:23:25 vi_: with an uncalibrated bq27200? Nov 13 13:23:28 Hurrian, kerio: can you reproduce problem with charger in dsme always? Nov 13 13:23:45 Pali: "almost" always, yes Nov 13 13:23:50 kerio: What counts as uncalibrated? Nov 13 13:23:52 hmm, "state change request: DSME_STATE_USER -> DSME_STATE_ACTDEAD" Nov 13 13:23:58 because hald-addon-bme sending charger state (connected/disconnected) only when state is changing (and not on startup!) Nov 13 13:24:14 Pali: ooh, maybe if i connect the charger it figures it out? Nov 13 13:24:15 kerio: I have the correct value in 'last measured discharge'. Nov 13 13:24:17 hold on, i'll try Nov 13 13:24:17 please test this: start up phone, connect charger, disconnect charger and power off Nov 13 13:24:24 Pali: dsme is confused on shutdown Nov 13 13:24:41 aah, i see Nov 13 13:24:46 maybe somebody must tell dsme initial status Nov 13 13:24:52 yeah, makes sense Nov 13 13:25:28 Pali: it seems to power down fine :) Nov 13 13:25:41 phew :D Nov 13 13:25:41 Hurrian can you confirm this? Nov 13 13:26:04 Pali, wait a bit Nov 13 13:26:08 ok Nov 13 13:26:39 Pali: where do the values in rx51_battery come from, btw? Nov 13 13:26:48 kerio: How do I calibrate my battery then? Nov 13 13:26:54 kerio, from madc channels Nov 13 13:27:08 vi_: i have a script for people who use the bme replacement, hold on Nov 13 13:27:17 kerio: the same place where BME gets them Nov 13 13:27:18 btw, hald-addon-bme should work also without calibration! Nov 13 13:27:29 please test this state too Nov 13 13:27:50 kerio: No wait, it is fine. Nov 13 13:27:54 vi_: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1939035 Nov 13 13:27:55 kerio: ... Nov 13 13:28:13 kerio: I am using the wrong n900 again. I have never calibrated this one. Nov 13 13:28:15 vi_: it boils down to "charge until VDQ, discharge until EDV1" Nov 13 13:28:31 Pali: when do you update values in status applet and in BME? Nov 13 13:28:49 status menu appet update values when hald-addon-bme change them Nov 13 13:29:06 and when ...bme change them? Nov 13 13:29:09 anyway, i should install the correct KP52 Nov 13 13:29:16 Pali: did the modules change? are my backups still valid? Nov 13 13:29:21 kerio: Yeah, I have done that loads of times on the 'normal' n900. Nov 13 13:29:31 Woody14619a: thanks for the info Nov 13 13:29:32 vi_: but my script is neat! Nov 13 13:29:40 and hald-addon-bme updating when 1) bq2415x change state or 2) every 30s Nov 13 13:29:44 kerio: Yes it is. Nov 13 13:29:56 Pali: baad Nov 13 13:30:01 kerio: So is 'bq27x00 -5'. Nov 13 13:30:23 change that 30s to 60 Nov 13 13:30:31 freemangordon: why? :o Nov 13 13:30:33 why? Nov 13 13:30:36 Pali: http://pastebin.com/CZB2ur82 Nov 13 13:30:39 and update them on mce_tkunlock Nov 13 13:30:53 freemangordon: ooh, neat! Nov 13 13:31:00 or keep 30, makes no sense Nov 13 13:31:02 MohammadAG: hi, long time no see Nov 13 13:31:02 freemangordon, this doing also stock hald-addon-bme? Nov 13 13:31:12 I see mce_tklock code, but it is not used Nov 13 13:31:15 yes, and iirc there was code for that Nov 13 13:31:21 exactly Nov 13 13:31:37 this is what this code is Nov 13 13:31:41 Pali: I posted lshal dump Nov 13 13:31:46 ok Nov 13 13:31:49 now parsing Nov 13 13:31:58 kerio: Did you write that script? Nov 13 13:32:02 Pali: that way you'll have valid values ready for the user to read them Nov 13 13:32:19 and update every 60s? Nov 13 13:32:22 vi_: yes, from an idea by the one who scrutinizes Nov 13 13:32:29 Also Pali, the plug in charger, unplug and poweroff works to cleanly shutdown device Nov 13 13:32:48 Hurrian, thanks for confirming Nov 13 13:32:52 vi_: rewritten in a neater way, and then rewritten again for the bme replacement Nov 13 13:32:55 Pali: yes Nov 13 13:32:55 kerio: It is cleanly done, I like it. Nov 13 13:33:05 iirc the original poll timeout was 60 Nov 13 13:33:31 vi_: i threw that together kinda quickly, there are still too many paths around Nov 13 13:33:38 Pali: BTW what do you poll? Nov 13 13:33:44 Hurrian, your battery is not calibrated, but hald-addon-bme doing some calculation based on voltage Nov 13 13:33:49 so hald-addon-bme working fine Nov 13 13:33:53 kerio: 'threw it together!'...oh stoppit you! Nov 13 13:34:04 vi_: i mean the changes for openbme Nov 13 13:34:12 also :3 Nov 13 13:34:18 Pali, so problem is in status area applet? Nov 13 13:34:19 Hurrian, then problem is in status menu appet Nov 13 13:34:56 Pali, got it. So that's why hald-addon-bme log still shows mV readings. Nov 13 13:35:27 hald-addon-bme reading every value (mV too) Nov 13 13:35:41 but it using as fallback when battery is not calibrated Nov 13 13:35:55 note that this value could not be correct Nov 13 13:36:08 but is usefull for battery is low signal Nov 13 13:36:23 Hurrian: the voltage is always accurate Nov 13 13:36:34 voltage and current don't depend on any calibration Nov 13 13:36:47 Ah, right. It was only capacity, right? Nov 13 13:37:02 "only", he says :) Nov 13 13:37:23 new version of hald-addon-bme updated Nov 13 13:37:43 test and report if shutdown working... Nov 13 13:37:57 Pali: hold on, i'm installing the new kp52 Nov 13 13:38:04 Pali: hmm, look here https://gitorious.org/hald-addon-bme/hald-addon-bme/blobs/master/src/hald-addon-bme.c#line124 Nov 13 13:38:12 it is 6, not 60 Nov 13 13:38:20 Pali: how do i make uboot again? Nov 13 13:39:00 freemangordon, right I will change it to 60 Nov 13 13:39:10 kerio, reinstall uboot Nov 13 13:39:12 Pali: ^^^ Nov 13 13:39:18 it is 6, not 60 Nov 13 13:39:23 Pali: i mean with the kernel payload Nov 13 13:39:25 also look here https://gitorious.org/hald-addon-bme/hald-addon-bme/blobs/master/src/hald-addon-bme.c#line678 Nov 13 13:39:35 I know Nov 13 13:39:54 60 might be too big underv heavy load Nov 13 13:39:58 *under Nov 13 13:40:11 kerio, u-boot-gen-combined Nov 13 13:40:25 freemangordon, so which interval? Nov 13 13:40:33 oh right, first i need to make the zImage an uImage Nov 13 13:40:47 Pali: stock is doing it every 6 seconds Nov 13 13:40:47 mkimage Nov 13 13:41:09 Pali, shutdown works properly now without charger in new hald-addon-bme ;) Nov 13 13:41:11 Anyways, Pali, I'm going to sleep for the night. Keep me updated on any fixes. I'll be watching the cssu-testing and kp51 threads. Nov 13 13:41:15 Goodnight, guys. Nov 13 13:41:16 Pali: found your instructions on tmo, ty Nov 13 13:41:23 Hurrian: night Nov 13 13:41:32 Hurrian, bye Nov 13 13:41:40 bb Hurrian Nov 13 13:42:11 Pali: though 6 seconds seems to short interval to me. don;t know :( Nov 13 13:42:26 freemangordon: I certainly does. Nov 13 13:42:35 ^It Nov 13 13:42:52 Pali: do you have any notofication? Nov 13 13:43:02 *notification Nov 13 13:43:13 actually *NO* applet should do timer based refresh (excetp clock applet of course) Nov 13 13:43:26 DocScrutinizer05: this is hald-addon-bme Nov 13 13:44:18 DocScrutinizer05: the question is: should Pali keep the original poll interval of 6 seconds Nov 13 13:45:10 IIRC we'had discussed that. Unfortunately can;t remember the conclusions :) Nov 13 13:45:41 compromise, 15s Nov 13 13:45:50 DocScrutinizer05, how often should hald-addon-bme read values from bq27x00_battery kernel driver? Nov 13 13:45:53 through whole system you follow (embedded but not only) concept of event driven action. An event might be created by a peripheral e.g. changging a value of some sensor Nov 13 13:46:17 DocScrutinizer05: yeah, sure. But we don't have that Nov 13 13:46:49 Pali: make this 6 (like stock) and check for some env variable Nov 13 13:47:21 10 wakeups per minute should not affect battery that much Nov 13 13:47:41 but imagine if it was only 4? Nov 13 13:48:14 all your desktop widgets whatever they are (status area, desktop, in a window,...) update on value change event, and on "to front" resp get-focus, resp visible/show Nov 13 13:48:49 vi_: we risk to not have enough charge to do proper shutdown Nov 13 13:48:54 hmm, wait Nov 13 13:49:01 freemangordon, and nokia bme also updating when mce unlock screen? Nov 13 13:49:10 Pali: yes Nov 13 13:49:14 Pal an idea Nov 13 13:49:20 Pali: ^^^ Nov 13 13:49:21 so every 6 s + on unlock Nov 13 13:49:43 keep poll interval 60 seconds until the charge/voltage drops to a certain level Nov 13 13:49:51 yes Nov 13 13:50:07 thean shorten the period to lets say 20 seconds Nov 13 13:50:32 until voltage/charge drops to lets say 15% Nov 13 13:50:37 Pali: unrelated - what resets OSSO_VERSION actually? Nov 13 13:50:41 then check every 6 seconds Nov 13 13:50:49 Pali: ^^^ ? Nov 13 13:51:02 Pali: because flashing my uboot with softupd and flasher didn't change it Nov 13 13:51:20 kernel does monitoring of values around battery. Obviously bq27200 doesn't provide an IRQ for value change, and there's no genuine poll interval (unlike with bq24150). So kernel has to decide how often poll bq27200. I suggest to do this on a per-minute basis as long as voltage VBAT >3.6V, and on a 5s basis on lower VBAT Nov 13 13:51:36 hey, freemangordon beat me to it Nov 13 13:51:46 Pali: of course update values on mce unlock Nov 13 13:52:21 there has to be a genuine X event to refresh display Nov 13 13:53:06 DocScrutinizer05: mce_tklock or something Nov 13 13:53:12 there's an event in mce Nov 13 13:53:31 e.g weather applet evidently does refresh (download new data) only when screen goes visible by whatever action/cause Nov 13 13:53:53 Pali: booted with current KP52 and current hald-addon-bme then shut down - no act_dead Nov 13 13:54:03 kerio: that's nonsense since there are other cases where homescreen not visible Nov 13 13:54:15 A+++ would not enter act_dead again Nov 13 13:54:22 well, doesn't 100% apply for statusarea Nov 13 13:54:31 DocScrutinizer05: battery applet? it's basically only with fullscreen applications Nov 13 13:54:47 also, the status applet is responsible for the "low battery" banners Nov 13 13:54:54 so there's not even that excuse Nov 13 13:55:14 I bet there's a similar event for status-area like there is in X for homescreen refresh Nov 13 13:56:28 well, design is fubar even in original fremantle it seems. They did poll, a terribly BAD[TM] idea Nov 13 13:56:49 DocScrutinizer05: stock hald-addon-bme does it on mce tk_lock "unlocked" dbus signal, I can't think of a reason why should we doit in a different way Nov 13 13:56:51 DocScrutinizer05: does bq27k have no interrupts at all? :( Nov 13 13:57:07 since I guess it's asking for too much to sanitize that mess at root Nov 13 13:57:23 DocScrutinizer05: to be fair, what should the interrupt be? Nov 13 13:57:27 I suggest to follow fmg/my suggestion with variable poll freq Nov 13 13:57:33 changed VBAT? Nov 13 13:57:55 Pali: do you need any help with that? Nov 13 13:58:13 I will implement it Nov 13 13:58:30 Toldya i feel I know something GLIB/GTK :D:D:D Nov 13 13:58:33 ok Nov 13 13:59:33 though for the life of mine I still cannot understand how ot is possible to name a function "gtk_box_pack_start/end" :D Nov 13 13:59:40 kerio: there are some few instances where maemo kernel actually creates proper interrupt. Not even on VBUS detection though, that's why bme/hald-addon is polling shit Nov 13 14:00:17 hold on, so the kernel still polls bq27k/bq24k? Nov 13 14:00:23 kerio: yes Nov 13 14:00:33 bq polls eevry 5 seconds Nov 13 14:00:37 *every Nov 13 14:01:16 so polling every 5 seconds could lead to you having up-to-10-seconds old data Nov 13 14:01:17 DocScrutinizer05: BTW isn't there some GPIO connected to bq battery chip? Nov 13 14:04:51 freemangordon: nope Nov 13 14:04:58 only I2C bus 2 Nov 13 14:05:21 polling sucks :s Nov 13 14:05:31 both bq chips don't really support IRQ Nov 13 14:05:53 DocScrutinizer05: then how does the n900 figure out immediately that you plugged in the charger? Nov 13 14:05:55 bq24150 would, for error conditions, on OTG output Nov 13 14:07:09 twl4030 send some signal and kernel catch it Nov 13 14:07:30 then kernel musb code calling that detect fastcharger function Nov 13 14:07:49 This should NOT be done unless you know exactly what you are doing!

Nov 13 14:52:25 amospalla: or via uboot Nov 13 14:52:58 it sounds like bootmenu console Nov 13 14:53:06 no, not bootmenu Nov 13 14:53:22 yes, I mean, it remembers me bootmenu console Nov 13 14:53:24 MohammadAG, are you still going to contribute to cssu? Nov 13 14:53:39 but bootmenu console had some troubles afaik Nov 13 14:53:49 bootmenu never had a console iirc Nov 13 14:53:54 oh right, Pali's Nov 13 14:54:08 kerio: is it difficult to add to uboot? Nov 13 14:54:15 amospalla: nah, Pali has the entry Nov 13 14:54:20 if you want i can pastebin it to you Nov 13 14:54:31 that would be great Nov 13 14:54:39 Ive never done anything with uboot Nov 13 14:57:28 amospalla: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1939164 Nov 13 14:57:33 it has a bootmenu, but was very fragile, better its ssh option Nov 13 14:57:59 thanks, where should I put the files? Nov 13 14:58:01 then put 2.6.37 and rescueOS-initrd-0.5.3.img in /opt/boot and do u-boot-update-bootmenu Nov 13 14:58:13 that file is /etc/bootmenu.d/rescueos.item Nov 13 14:58:26 thanks kerio Nov 13 14:58:33 Pali: hopefully yes, its my first day back with free time though so bare with me :) Nov 13 14:58:44 it's kinda confusing because there's bootmenu that runs after the kernel is loaded, and uboot's bootmenu that runs in uboot Nov 13 14:58:55 MohammadAG :-) Nov 13 15:06:05 Pali: how quickly does /tmp/hald-addon-bme.log grow? Nov 13 15:06:29 kerio, do not know... Nov 13 15:10:32 kerio: 2.6.37 in /opt/boot ? I thought u-boot was looking at /boot to load kernels Nov 13 15:11:20 last version reading zImages from /opt/boot and also from /boot Nov 13 15:12:04 Pali: the rc3 version ? Nov 13 15:12:26 the latest version of u-boot-update-bootmenu Nov 13 15:12:36 2012.10 Nov 13 15:12:39 kerio: my battery status menu meter shows zero when I unplug the charger.

Nov 13 15:23:36 mail him Nov 13 15:23:49 send him a hooker Nov 13 15:24:14 pm sent Nov 13 15:24:54 Pali: what the hell, now the animation is the one of the charging battery but the text doesn't say "charging" Nov 13 15:25:51 bug Nov 13 15:26:32 dammit pali! :( Nov 13 15:26:34 seems that I need to add debug output of battery status menu plugin Nov 13 15:29:12 Pali: what is the bme replacement event.d named? Nov 13 15:29:23 bme Nov 13 15:29:29 mmm Nov 13 15:29:37 when I 'stop bme' Nov 13 15:29:46 I am told bme allready stopped. Nov 13 15:31:33 bme is only task event.d Nov 13 15:31:42 which one time load needed modules Nov 13 15:31:57 there is no bme daemon Nov 13 15:32:16 Pali: aah yes. that makes sense, Nov 13 15:35:38 MohammadAG: well, your first day back? then welcome home, pal! Nov 13 15:35:53 MohammadAG ping Nov 13 15:36:18 I've pestered you for ages about applications you have stucked at testing Nov 13 15:36:33 I hope you could find some time to promote them Nov 13 15:52:55 Pali: With an uncalibrated battery, will the status menu applet always show empty (0/0mAh)? Nov 13 15:53:34 vi_, are you using hald-addon-bme replacement? Nov 13 15:53:49 if yes, then it should not write 0/0 Nov 13 15:54:11 new hald-addon-bme calculate capacity from voltage (some approximation) if battery is uncalibrated Nov 13 15:55:33 yes I am using hald-addon-bme replacement. Nov 13 15:55:51 I just 'dpkg -i' it and rebooted to be sure. Nov 13 15:56:40 Pali: can I setui some gio on file in /sys, so if someone writes in it my code to be notified? Nov 13 15:56:51 *setup Nov 13 15:57:51 freemangordon, only if that kernel module which own that sysfile calling notify function after change Nov 13 15:57:56 or a simple select will do the job too? Nov 13 15:58:13 Pali: I talk about write from userland Nov 13 15:58:21 not kernel changing the values Nov 13 15:58:54 freemangordon, files in /sys are owned by kernel modules and sysfs is not normal filesystem Nov 13 15:59:01 I know that Nov 13 15:59:17 you cannot wait until somebody write to that file Nov 13 15:59:33 can't I do select? Nov 13 15:59:34 you can only wait if kernel module call notify function Nov 13 16:00:03 select will return only if kernel module call notify function Nov 13 16:00:15 !not when userland app write to sysfs file! Nov 13 16:00:43 thu fuck Nov 13 16:00:53 what you need? Nov 13 16:00:58 which sysfs file? Nov 13 16:01:21 "/sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-2/2-0063/rds_ps_name" and rds_radio_text Nov 13 16:03:49 radio-si4713.c does not call notify Nov 13 16:03:56 freemangordon: poll dat shit! Nov 13 16:03:57 :D Nov 13 16:04:01 so no select Nov 13 16:04:11 yeah, I see Nov 13 16:04:15 poll will not work too Nov 13 16:04:48 stupid fmtxd Nov 13 16:04:55 because poll wait for same event... Nov 13 16:04:59 Nokia broke it with pr1.3 Nov 13 16:05:08 freemangordon, going to replace fmtxd? :-) Nov 13 16:05:12 freemangordon: what? Nov 13 16:05:17 no, enough RE for now Nov 13 16:05:33 freemangordon: have you seen my FMTXD? Nov 13 16:05:55 jacekowski: seen? no, but heard of it :) Nov 13 16:06:05 maybe I should use it Nov 13 16:06:10 freemangordon: it's fmtxd that works Nov 13 16:06:13 no power limits Nov 13 16:06:15 no frequency limits Nov 13 16:06:21 KP has no power limits too Nov 13 16:06:31 no,no it is RDS that drives me mad Nov 13 16:06:33 I already proposed that ages ago Nov 13 16:06:49 RDS behaviour has not changed since 1.1 Nov 13 16:07:51 jacekowski: mabe for you, but for me it has changed. Nokia broke it in such a way, that it shows only "NOKIA" as RDS text if you don;t have descent radio Nov 13 16:07:56 *maybe Nov 13 16:08:57 Pali: 'lshal | grep level' shows I have a battery level of 0. Nov 13 16:09:04 song/album/etc is in RDS text section, which is not supported on older tuners Nov 13 16:09:16 I need full lshal output Nov 13 16:09:28 lshal | grep battery charging: Nov 13 16:09:37 http://pastebin.com/hF0esNUz Nov 13 16:09:43 lshal | grep battery discharging: Nov 13 16:09:49 http://pastebin.com/Xt2DHcJG Nov 13 16:09:51 this log is useless too Nov 13 16:10:00 I need full lshal log Nov 13 16:10:12 or at least hal-device bme Nov 13 16:10:28 hal-device Nov 13 16:10:33 and more Nov 13 16:10:48 http://pastebin.com/4kRB2xQV Nov 13 16:10:56 ^hal-device bme Nov 13 16:10:56 jacekowski: and it is not only when you play music. There is a widget in extras who tries to do some stuff, like showing the name of the caller, etc using RDS Nov 13 16:11:06 unfortunately it is buggi as hell Nov 13 16:11:10 *buggy Nov 13 16:11:24 http://pastebin.com/Q04navjZ Nov 13 16:11:26 ^lshal Nov 13 16:11:37 freemangordon: they've changed that in 1.2 Nov 13 16:11:45 freemangordon: and it's supposed to work like that Nov 13 16:12:24 freemangordon: you're not supposed to have any changing text in that RDS field because it's displayed on car radios Nov 13 16:12:46 http://wiki.meego.com is working again Nov 13 16:12:58 sure, it follows the standard, but that does not makes it more usable for me Nov 13 16:13:02 [17:11:34] Maemo wiki is broken because of our own auth plugin not being compatible with newer version of mediawiki. Nov 13 16:13:29 jacekowski: to not have changing text? why? Nov 13 16:13:48 freemangordon: so it doesn't distract the driver Nov 13 16:13:55 aah, ok Nov 13 16:13:59 very smart Nov 13 16:14:29 that's what's in the spec Nov 13 16:14:46 jacekowski: well, this is as stupid as it could be, having in mind GPS systems Nov 13 16:15:08 I know this is according to specs Nov 13 16:15:16 Pali: have syslog too but it is simply full of a list of 'battery not calibrated' messages. Nov 13 16:15:22 but it is useless as it is Nov 13 16:15:49 vi_, I do not need syslog Nov 13 16:16:16 vi_, rx51_battery is OK Nov 13 16:17:26 vi, bq2415x is OK Nov 13 16:17:42 vi_, bq27x00 is OK (but not calibrated) Nov 13 16:18:23 That moment when you realise that the archiving process wasn't as failproof as you'd been told: Fuck. Nov 13 16:18:35 teotwaki: which archiving process? Nov 13 16:18:44 Something at work. Nov 13 16:18:51 vi_, hald-addon-bme reports: 63% (801/1272) Charging Nov 13 16:19:00 The past 5 years worth of Call Data Records. Nov 13 16:19:04 so hald-addon-bme seems working Nov 13 16:19:09 jacekowski: any clue what that is: Nov 13 16:19:12 "signal sender=:1.312 -> dest=(null destination) serial=85 path=/com/nokia/fmtx/default; interface=com.nokia.FMTx.Device; member=Changed" Nov 13 16:19:15 so problem is in status menu battery plugin Nov 13 16:19:39 vi_, are you using orignal nokia or my replacement of status menu battery plugin? Nov 13 16:19:47 Your replacement. Nov 13 16:20:02 ok, so there is bug in my plugin Nov 13 16:20:53 well it WAS working when I first installed it. Nov 13 16:21:07 I then uninstalled advanced-power-monitor. Nov 13 16:21:19 After that it stopped working. Nov 13 16:21:19 oh Nov 13 16:21:21 :s Nov 13 16:21:25 just reinstall the applet Nov 13 16:21:36 kerio: I have done x50 Nov 13 16:21:44 you probably suck Nov 13 16:21:48 purge both, install Pali's Nov 13 16:21:49 ;/ Nov 13 16:21:53 and then reboot Nov 13 16:21:54 :/ Nov 13 16:22:00 ;\ Nov 13 16:22:03 kerio: Like 100x now Nov 13 16:25:31 problem with autobuilder: [17:22:14] the script is incompatible with a newer version of python Nov 13 16:29:54 does anyone know what the stock battery status applet is called? Nov 13 16:30:01 What package am I looking for? Nov 13 16:33:20 status-area-applet-battery Nov 13 16:33:29 just downgrade it Nov 13 16:46:57 Pali: anyway, i had no problems with the old hald-addon-bme Nov 13 16:46:58 :c Nov 13 16:47:09 old=the one with no logging Nov 13 16:47:20 kerio, there was bug Nov 13 16:47:22 =and with the KP52 from october Nov 13 16:47:39 Pali: yeah, but at least charging meant charging and no charging meant no charging Nov 13 16:48:40 kerio, I updated hald-addon-bme, now it refresh values when display is unlocked Nov 13 16:48:52 and also pushed source code to gitorious Nov 13 16:51:46 ~pali Nov 13 16:51:55 DocScrutinizer05: give infobot a kick Nov 13 16:52:06 Well I do not get it. Nov 13 16:52:17 The applet just shows all zeros and an empty battery. Nov 13 16:52:42 Pali: maybe there's a bug in the noncalibration detection? Nov 13 16:52:51 When the charger is attached it shows charging graphic and all zeros. Nov 13 16:53:44 If I rmmod bq27x00_battery Nov 13 16:54:13 If I rmmod bq27x00_battery it shows empty battery graphic an 0/1247mAh. Nov 13 16:54:27 And stops charging. Nov 13 16:54:57 If I then modprobe bq27x00 it goes back to all zeros. Nov 13 16:55:05 vi_, what that reports? hald-addon-bme? Nov 13 16:55:14 kerio: done Nov 13 16:55:17 kerio: thanks Nov 13 16:56:20 infobot: hi Nov 13 16:56:22 hi, kerio Nov 13 16:56:26 ^_^ Nov 13 16:56:27 ~pali Nov 13 16:56:29 i guess pali is http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pali/ Nov 13 16:56:46 Pali: that is what the status area applet shows. Nov 13 16:57:01 ok, so problem is in status area applet Nov 13 16:57:11 wait until I patch applet to provide debug ingo Nov 13 16:57:14 *info Nov 13 16:57:17 o0k Nov 13 17:01:30 * DocScrutinizer05 idly wonders how to set some highlight on generic joun/nick/quit actions and other [info] msgs Nov 13 17:01:49 in Kontact Nov 13 17:13:05 Docscrutinizer05: FWIW, if others are making wiki/repo backups, would it be possible to setup a torrent of said items? That would allow others to share such info, ensure multiple backups, and allow less personal load per person network wise... Nov 13 17:23:53 Woody14619b: why not? Nov 13 17:24:26 though apt-mirror can mirror arbitrary other mirrors Nov 13 17:24:38 wiki backup is <50MB compressed Nov 13 17:25:14 afk, bbl Nov 13 18:12:32 seems that changing user's shell to bash4 breaks easydebian, as it seems to try to execute bash4 within the debian chroot Nov 13 18:12:35 woe is me Nov 13 18:12:45 just after I installed debian _on a phone_ Nov 13 18:13:49 hi cjdavies Nov 13 18:14:03 'sup DocScrutinizer51 Nov 13 18:14:19 still flu Nov 13 18:15:23 kill it with fire Nov 13 18:15:25 or, amantadine Nov 13 18:15:27 your choice Nov 13 18:18:03 cjdavies: it's easy to break easydebian Nov 13 18:18:09 the whole infrastructure is a piece of crap Nov 13 18:18:20 the concept is fun though Nov 13 18:18:21 hehe Nov 13 18:18:23 indeed Nov 13 18:18:25 it's debian _on a phone_ Nov 13 18:18:29 this still entertains me Nov 13 18:18:29 it's the execution that i find lacking Nov 13 18:18:35 * cjdavies is maybe easily pleased Nov 13 18:18:36 cjdavies: dude, your n900 is already debian on a phone Nov 13 18:18:46 anyway, it's kinda easy to fix i suppose Nov 13 18:18:55 mount the image, ln -s bin/bash bin/bash4 Nov 13 18:19:00 nah, linux on the phone is for the real men Nov 13 18:19:13 no matter which flavor Nov 13 18:19:20 DocScrutinizer51: android! Nov 13 18:19:31 that's no linux Nov 13 18:19:40 the kernel is right Nov 13 18:20:03 particularly kernel isn't afaik Nov 13 18:20:18 wkaelocks Nov 13 18:20:24 whatnot else Nov 13 18:20:44 so if I just do mkdir /foo && mount /home/user/MyDocs/.ext3 /foo && ln -s /foo/bin/bash /foo/bin/bash4 I should be giddy? Nov 13 18:20:59 cjdavies: i suppose so Nov 13 18:21:08 i'm just guessing here Nov 13 18:21:24 but "/bin/bash4" is not found anywhere in debian afaik Nov 13 18:21:32 (and for good reasons) Nov 13 18:22:27 what if I make a symlink in debian called /bin/bash4 that points to /bin/bash ..? Nov 13 18:24:36 DocScrutinizer51, kerio: android is based on linux, both file system layout and kernel, but the similarities stops at "based on". android has made lots of changes, most of them will not make it back into mainline linux kernel. Nov 13 18:25:01 cjdavies: that's what i told you to do Nov 13 18:25:26 seems to work Nov 13 18:25:27 :) Nov 13 18:25:46 * cjdavies should change .bashrc to indicate when in chroot Nov 13 18:25:49 bad things happen otherwise Nov 13 18:26:08 cjdavies: you should get a notification Nov 13 18:26:15 i heard android devs could not be arsed to maintain their own patches, which kinda sets the bar of their involvement in linux dev :-P Nov 13 18:26:27 well yes, but I like it when the prompt has a RED TEXT added to it to indicate that I'm in a chroot Nov 13 18:26:55 typing a destructive command into a terminal that you think is a chroot only to realise a few seconds later that it's the host filesystem.... Nov 13 18:26:58 is not fun Nov 13 18:27:51 sup Nov 13 18:28:00 tadzik: done copying? Nov 13 18:28:33 tadzik: you should probably (make a copy of your image and then) zero out the first 512 bytes so that nothing thinks that that partition table is actually valid Nov 13 18:29:47 DocScrutinizer05: K. Would be nice to set that up and publicize it a bit. Sharing anything community related like that would be nice, since it would prevent accidental DoS attacks on the servers. :) Nov 13 18:30:16 DocScrutinizer05: Also, something to add to the list of things for Council to do: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1293889&postcount=177 Nov 13 18:31:07 Woody14619b: i think that "attack" implies malevolence Nov 13 18:31:56 not always kerio. Sometimes people do things that they think should be just fine, like running a bot or script to do some task. Nov 13 18:32:10 yeah but those aren't DoS attacks Nov 13 18:32:25 But if that task winds up causing that service to crash, or prevents others from accessing it.... Nov 13 18:32:33 Fine.. what would you call it then? Nov 13 18:33:02 If I ran a script that sucked up all the bandwidth for the wiki as it backed it up, and others couldn't access it while it ran, what is that called? Nov 13 18:33:22 a dick move Nov 13 18:33:39 :P Nov 13 18:33:48 Being a native English speaker, I would use the term DoS attack. Attack does not always imply malevolence. Nov 13 18:33:56 my point is that it can't be an accidental DoS attack, it's either an accidental DoS or a DoS attack Nov 13 18:34:22 One can be attacked by an animal that is protecting its children. The animal is not malevolent... It simply is protecting itself. Nov 13 18:34:39 Yet it's still called an attack. Nov 13 18:35:17 hm Nov 13 18:35:20 What you perceive as an accident, the rest of the world sees as an attack. It's that simple. Nov 13 18:35:32 k, makes sense Nov 13 18:35:50 If I accidentally shoot you, you're still shot... Nov 13 18:35:54 :) Nov 13 18:36:03 yeah but don't shoot me Nov 13 18:36:29 Anyway... back to work. But yes, just want to make sure people don't all start trying to archive everything directly, preventing anyone from doing so fully. Nov 13 18:36:56 Much better to have a P2P share of one good snapshot than 50 bad snapshots and the server going poof because of accidental abuse. :) Nov 13 18:40:29 kerio: still going Nov 13 18:40:52 kerio: there's another thing thogh: maemo sees my contacts and sms-ses Nov 13 18:41:17 they aren't gone, and I'd like to keep them that way Nov 13 18:41:24 /home/user generally seems ok, just not MyDocs Nov 13 18:41:27 hm Nov 13 18:41:38 yes, reflashing vanilla will bork those Nov 13 18:41:53 can't you sync them? Nov 13 18:42:10 I probably can, I need to figure out some sensemaking way to do it Nov 13 18:42:16 what would you recommend? Nov 13 18:42:21 either sync them or copy the files somewhere Nov 13 18:42:23 I don't have MyDocs to copy them to Nov 13 18:42:28 idk, i use apple's iSync Nov 13 18:42:29 I can use an SDcard, maybe Nov 13 18:43:05 i think it's just a matter of copying files and copying them back afterwards Nov 13 18:43:09 right Nov 13 18:43:10 oh, you could use the official Backup app Nov 13 18:43:19 but where would it store the .tgz? Nov 13 18:43:25 on a uSD Nov 13 18:43:51 yeah, that'd work Nov 13 18:43:56 (I hope :)) Nov 13 18:44:36 ok, mydocs copied Nov 13 18:45:03 now osso-usb--disable.sh, yes? Nov 13 18:45:36 tadzik: i haven't gone that far Nov 13 18:45:38 but yeah Nov 13 18:45:59 or maybe osso-usb-whatever-disable.sh /dev/mmcblk0p1 Nov 13 18:46:12 yeah, did this Nov 13 18:46:13 or just unplug the usb :) Nov 13 18:46:20 it shouldn't matter, really :) Nov 13 18:46:36 anyway, now that you have a copy, sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 Nov 13 18:46:59 and start working on recovering data from the vfat partition on your laptop Nov 13 18:47:03 you mean on device? Nov 13 18:47:05 maybe you won't need to reflash Nov 13 18:47:06 yes Nov 13 18:47:17 hell, you didn't need to reflash at all imo Nov 13 18:47:28 done Nov 13 18:47:35 tadzik: now reboot Nov 13 18:47:46 now mount? Nov 13 18:47:48 ok Nov 13 18:49:15 kerio: okay, it now sees MyDocs Nov 13 18:49:24 with all those funny stuff created Nov 13 18:49:27 yay Nov 13 18:49:35 so, huge success? :) Nov 13 18:49:49 only if you manage to recover the bulk of your data :) Nov 13 18:50:09 yeah. Only Moderate Success now :) Nov 13 18:50:28 then I'll need to sort out pictures from the camera from gigabytes of maps of germany... Nov 13 18:51:42 ohohoho Nov 13 18:51:54 well, i think map tiles are square and kinda small Nov 13 18:52:00 so dick around with imagemagick :) Nov 13 18:52:11 (DoS, accidental abuse) merlin1991 created a XML backup of wiki, it's on the servers mentioned in that "resources" thread Nov 13 18:52:15 maybe just sorting by size :) Nov 13 18:52:20 you probably lost "minor" things like the filenames Nov 13 18:52:28 and on maemo.cloud-7.de Nov 13 18:52:29 yeah, I've been through that :) Nov 13 18:52:49 so, cssu and thumb now :) Nov 13 18:52:53 hahahaha Nov 13 18:52:54 kerio: thank you very much for your help Nov 13 18:52:58 fuck yeah Nov 13 18:53:00 I owe you one :) Nov 13 18:53:25 it's one friggin large 700+MB XML file, plus all the .$img files Nov 13 18:53:39 only 40+MB compressed though Nov 13 18:54:41 40MB of compressed text is quite a lot of text Nov 13 18:55:01 that's whole wiki Nov 13 18:55:05 well, xml ;) Nov 13 18:56:34 ~#maemo mirror is http://maemo-archive.wedrop.it/ http://maemo.merlin1991.at/apt-mirror/ Nov 13 18:56:34 DocScrutinizer05: okay Nov 13 18:57:56 ~#maemo wiki-backup is http://maemo.merlin1991.at/wiki/ http://maemo-archive.wedrop.it/wiki/ http://maemo.cloud-7.de/wiki.bz2 Nov 13 18:57:56 okay, DocScrutinizer05 Nov 13 19:01:40 ha! Mahjong's hiscores aren't lost either Nov 13 19:06:32 tadzik: any news re opera 12? Nov 13 19:06:52 it still segfaults like mad Nov 13 19:07:15 and unfortunately not a word from the maintainer Nov 13 19:07:24 freemangordon: yeah, userjs going apeshit Nov 13 19:08:22 forgot to ask him today Nov 13 19:08:23 tadzik: hmm, thats pretty old news :P Nov 13 19:08:27 yeah, I know ;) Nov 13 19:08:31 but I can reproduce it now Nov 13 19:08:35 ...maybe not now Nov 13 19:08:38 good Nov 13 19:08:58 tadzik: it segfaults as long as you open a site Nov 13 19:09:04 *as soon Nov 13 19:10:22 yeah Nov 13 19:14:09 freemangordon: i confirm that Nov 13 19:14:27 I was apparently the only one who didn't notice :) Nov 13 19:16:04 DocScrutinizer05, is somebody going to create backup of meego wiki? Nov 13 19:16:12 tadzik: well, we are actually using opera :P Nov 13 19:16:43 yeah, that was the reason 12.1 is there :) Nov 13 19:32:21 merlin1991, hi may that one be mirrored too Nov 13 19:47:49 anyone know how to get in touch with estel until his tmo ban is lifted? Nov 13 19:48:28 tmo ban? I sure missed some fun Nov 13 19:48:33 like, does he hang out here sometimes? Nov 13 19:48:56 yea Nov 13 19:49:01 i missed it too, and the posts Nov 13 19:49:03 are gone Nov 13 19:49:12 any idea why cutetube doesn't find youtube videos? Nov 13 19:51:05 hahaha fucking awesome Nov 13 19:51:09 he got double banned Nov 13 19:52:04 and it probably wont be lifted for a month or whatever Nov 13 19:52:22 annoying that you cant send/receive PMs when someone is banned Nov 13 19:52:36 like on an opt-in basis Nov 13 19:53:02 does anyone know if he does come on here occasionally, or another freenode or something? Nov 13 19:53:43 teleshoes: he was banned from here Nov 13 19:54:06 aww Nov 13 19:54:20 ugh Nov 13 19:54:35 on all freenode? or just this chat? Nov 13 19:54:46 i dont really know what 'banned' means in the context of irc Nov 13 19:54:53 from this channel, I guess Nov 13 19:55:07 I don't think tmo has power over entire freenode :) Nov 13 19:55:12 heh Nov 13 19:55:23 i wish everything wasnt always for personally charged Nov 13 19:56:26 i guess...i just cant talk to estel for a month Nov 13 19:57:36 send him an email? Nov 13 19:58:09 (so he devotes his time to answer/read it and so stops annoying the mailing list) Nov 13 19:58:20 :> Nov 13 20:10:50 dont have an email, and dunno if you should publicly share it Nov 13 20:10:58 for estel that is Nov 13 20:11:08 a mailing list was mentioned. Join facts Nov 13 20:11:42 sorry? Nov 13 20:11:59 do you know what a mailing list is? Nov 13 20:12:01 yes Nov 13 20:13:59 then if Estel is on one, finding his email is not too hard :) Nov 13 20:14:22 i would need the mailserver and the list name to do so, yes? Nov 13 20:14:37 well, yes Nov 13 20:15:11 im sorry for my ignorance; should i be able to deduce it? Nov 13 20:15:34 It's probably mentioned on maemo wiki or somewhere Nov 13 20:15:43 mm Nov 13 20:15:44 ok Nov 13 20:15:52 I don't really know, I'm guessing :) Nov 13 20:16:06 http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_mailing_lists looks legit Nov 13 20:16:37 https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-community Nov 13 20:16:39 oh looks like mailman Nov 13 20:16:41 yea Nov 13 20:16:44 thank you Nov 13 20:41:12 RzR: what did you mean by "that" in "merlin1991, hi may that one be mirrored too" Nov 13 20:44:29 merlin1991, maybe meego wiki Nov 13 20:45:11 (([2012-11-13 20:16:04] DocScrutinizer05, is somebody going to create backup of meego wiki?)) dunno, thought it's down Nov 13 20:45:25 now its up again Nov 13 20:45:36 I wrote X-Fade conversation here...

Ask merlin1991 or Skry about it. Sorry I got no 5 min time to care about it right now :'( Nov 13 21:04:43 merlin1991, Skry: can you check if 1) wiki.meego.com is mediawiki and if yes 2) can you create backup of it (like wiki.maemo.org)? Nov 13 21:04:58 Maemo, were drama goes to burst a final time and die. Nov 13 21:05:09 (cf: mailing list) Nov 13 21:05:17 yeah meego wiki has the Special:Export page, but we need a way to automatically pull all page titles Nov 13 21:05:48 great , been told nearby #mer Nov 13 21:05:56 that is also backuped Nov 13 21:06:04 the db is Nov 13 21:06:26 Is harmattan-dev back up?

Nov 13 21:07:31 not now Nov 13 21:08:15 rZr: I don't care for a snapshot, people have said that it's temporary downtime, I choose to trust and believe them. Nov 13 21:08:28 rZr: maybe not now, but last night? Nov 13 21:08:40 maybe but it didnt finish Nov 13 21:08:44 have to go now Nov 13 21:08:45 later Nov 13 21:11:06 rZr: you're weird Nov 13 21:11:46 teotwaki_: rZr hey Nov 13 21:12:33 sup ZogG_laptop Nov 13 21:13:08 not bad not good Nov 13 21:13:21 you know when u have that feeling that u don't have any feelings left Nov 13 21:13:24 :) Nov 13 21:13:35 teotwaki, yes i am , we're all are Nov 13 21:13:50 ttyl ok ?

Nov 13 21:15:25 ;) Nov 13 21:15:48 teotwaki_: meego could be fine if not aegis and harmattan's mix Nov 13 21:16:01 * ZogG_laptop waiting for what jolla has Nov 13 21:17:07 * ZogG_laptop loves Nina Simone Nov 13 22:21:36 is there anything available that allows me to customize the icons at the top? like removing stuff I don't need to know etc Nov 13 22:21:55 icons at the top? Nov 13 22:21:57 (mostly the "no SIM" icon) Nov 13 22:22:30 alternatively hack it away using a transparent image :D Nov 13 22:22:35 ^yes Nov 13 22:23:27 well custom themes allows they to change Nov 13 22:23:37 so if it's impossible to do properly... Nov 13 22:23:56 then at least replacing with a transparent image would work, no? Nov 13 22:24:28 custom themes allow them to change? Nov 13 22:24:36 I believe so? Nov 13 22:24:45 you mean changing the image, or hiding the icon? (as in truthfully hiding it, not transparent image) Nov 13 22:24:46 they don't? Nov 13 22:24:51 because sure, you can change the image Nov 13 22:25:00 yeah i know Nov 13 22:25:06 but can I hide it properly? Nov 13 22:25:26 Now that's a question I can't answer :P Nov 13 22:26:21 because I already know that I have no SIM, and wont place any inside anytime soon Nov 13 22:29:09 chem|st: Still need someone without python-support installed? Nov 13 22:33:11 Anyway here it is: http://pastebin.com/a0xSxTuf Nov 13 22:54:06 FIQ: you can change a lot of those icons and decide to remove them. Not though for the phone icon afaik (noSIM, Network-2G/3G) Nov 13 22:54:57 it's the one icon that has hardcoded location and this can't get removed iirc Nov 13 22:55:07 thus* Nov 13 23:01:10 why did it have to be the phone icon :( Nov 13 23:02:07 but he can still change it, no? Nov 13 23:27:51 searching my bookmarks (starts to be a PITA meanwhile): http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=66251 Nov 13 23:30:16 >>Special-0 (phone signal), and Special-1 (battery icon) go before those<< Nov 13 23:32:59 thanks to mentalist traceur and MohammadAG Nov 13 23:53:30 ty DocScrutinizer05 Nov 13 23:54:09 hm commented away cellular thing and killed hildon-desktop, didn't seem to do much Nov 13 23:56:52 ... Nov 13 23:57:46 turns out it was just another process (not a child of hildon-desktop as I thought) but commenting it away just made it appear last lol Nov 14 00:19:45 is there any danger in trying to empty the N900 battery to give it a nice big charge the next time? Nov 14 00:19:53 eg, run it until the phone literally turns off Nov 14 00:20:03 by cat'ing /dev/urandom or something to hammer the CPU Nov 14 00:45:42 FIQ: yep, it's a bitch. If you dare to mess up numbering sequence (sparse voids) or otherwise do sth that's not looking 'nice' to the systemui-statusbar-foo-whatever, the results are at best surprising Nov 14 00:47:58 cjdavies: if you for some reason want to empty it for real, vanilla maemo isn't enough as it turns n900 off when battery is at critical level Nov 14 00:48:51 but then I believe n900 wont charge it Nov 14 00:49:25 cjdavies: see my bq27k-calibrate shellscript Nov 14 00:50:25 cjdavies: but basically nope, there's no danger in discharging N900 until it shuts down (since that's been your original question) Nov 14 00:50:34 DocScrutinizer05: getting battery to show percent needs calibration, doesn't it? Nov 14 00:50:55 FIQ: with Pali's new stuff yes Nov 14 00:51:05 he relies on bq27200 Nov 14 00:51:29 usual classical bme doesn't Nov 14 00:51:33 hi all... i have small question where i can find leatest repos address and new not expired keys? Nov 14 00:51:35 I suppose calibration doesn't work in practice if you use 2 batteries? Nov 14 00:51:55 (assuming they don't work identical) Nov 14 00:51:59 yes, swapping batteries is a big partypooper for calibration Nov 14 00:52:20 Drathir: hi Nov 14 00:52:25 then I guess I'll be unable to get battery to show percent Nov 14 00:52:45 Drathir: new keys are hardly found anywhere Nov 14 00:52:51 (well I would anyway as I believe calibration needs you to charge the device...) Nov 14 00:52:53 Drathir: just ignore the warnings Nov 14 00:53:30 Drathir: what's been your other question? Nov 14 00:53:48 latest repo? what does that mean? Nov 14 00:54:07 looking for latest nokia n900 repsitory too Nov 14 00:54:27 um Nov 14 00:54:35 there are basically 3 repos: extras, extras-testing, extras-devel Nov 14 00:54:38 why would you ever switch it? Nov 14 00:55:01 but correc mem if i wrong if keys expiret that repository dont upgrade? Nov 14 00:55:04 for 'leet new' stuff you want extras-devel Nov 14 00:55:31 nope, HAM doesn't care, just throws warnings Nov 14 00:55:40 actually apt does Nov 14 00:55:43 Drathir: sounds like symbian policy Nov 14 00:55:57 refuse install in case there's no or missing cert Nov 14 00:56:13 Drathir: please elaborate on what you're planning to do Nov 14 00:56:39 FIQ: not really switch i thinking this repository changed some time or all time be the same? Nov 14 00:56:51 Drathir: stuff on maemo might not always be like you expect it to Nov 14 00:56:52 DocScrutinizer05: does HAM even say anything about it? Nov 14 00:57:02 actually nope Nov 14 00:57:15 apt-get update does Nov 14 00:57:50 Drathir: for example, apt-get dist-upgrade is an absolute NOGO Nov 14 00:58:04 that's why I ask what you plan to do Nov 14 00:58:19 i just have new n900 andi think to refresh becase i think earlier user dont change anything when buy it and that be sme time ago... Nov 14 00:58:22 also I don't get what HAM tries to tell me if it gives a "(null)" warning right before an install Nov 14 00:58:41 Drathir: see Nov 14 00:58:44 ~flash Nov 14 00:58:45 methinks maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware Nov 14 00:58:49 see Nov 14 00:58:52 ~cssu Nov 14 00:58:53 i guess cssu is http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU Nov 14 00:59:11 you shall be pretty up to date and happy after that Nov 14 00:59:52 Drathir: btw, welcome on board! :-D Nov 14 01:00:36 DocScrutinizer05: thanks a lot also look there... Nov 14 01:00:52 Drathir: don't get scared by occasional bickering, stay with us and you'll have a good time, if you love linux Nov 14 01:01:01 DocScrutinizer05: welcome all too Nov 14 01:03:44 Drathir: again, since it seems you're a newbe. You should give your N900 a full reflash, to eradicate any remnants of previous owner. Check http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware for that, come here if any problems. Then after you succeeded, you probbaly wanna come here asking what to do next Nov 14 01:04:05 i planning take from n900 all what can do 4me and starting to looking for differences with real pc linux... first experience is amazing for me but mark thats is clean untouched... i scare what can do with optimised and tweaked n900... Nov 14 01:05:41 Drathir: a) don't feel scared, you can't "brick" N900 (well you can, if you know the very special magic spell, but that won't happen by accident) Nov 14 01:05:47 yes i love linux but if i good hear is a little chance to totally kill n900 but i dont know it is true or not... Nov 14 01:06:19 ok is true ^^ Nov 14 01:06:25 b) maemo probably has some surprises for you, if you're used to 'standard' linux Nov 14 01:07:07 so better come here and ask before you do anything you *think* should work, like apt-get dist-upgrade Nov 14 01:08:06 Drathir: killing N900 is not easy to do through firmware Nov 14 01:08:19 Drathir: read ~flash carefully, it has a lot of info Nov 14 01:08:42 when you've finished, re-read Nov 14 01:08:47 *all* Nov 14 01:08:49 assuming you don't bring a hammer or anything non-firmware, you simply can't kill it unless you try really hard Nov 14 01:10:04 once you've read ~flashing, come here to ask how to proceed. we're basically a nicew bunch here, always happy to welcome newbies Nov 14 01:10:10 im not very pro but in past using ubuntu,debian and the latest include now using archlinux... and when i thinking that i have linux in pocket that is nice... Nov 14 01:10:35 that's the spirit :-) Nov 14 01:10:54 go read ~flash Nov 14 01:10:58 ~flash Nov 14 01:10:59 from memory, maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware Nov 14 01:11:13 DocScrutinizer05: ok i will not do dist-upgrade Nov 14 01:11:17 tbh n900 is what got me into linux for real, I hadn't really played around with it much before Nov 14 01:11:24 then set up your linux PC for flashing your N900 and come here again Nov 14 01:12:45 general q: how often should i reboot, in terms of uptime? Nov 14 01:12:48 here's always at least a dozen experienced users happy to guide a newbie thru first steps :-) Nov 14 01:13:07 mad_dev: my t900 has an uptime of... Nov 14 01:13:18 mad_dev: you don't need to reboot just to reboot Nov 14 01:13:25 t900:~# uptime Nov 14 01:13:27 02:26:36 up 23 days, 4:15, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 Nov 14 01:13:29 duh!!! Nov 14 01:13:40 it been like 190 days before Nov 14 01:13:41 wow Nov 14 01:13:46 DocScrutinizer05: is possible that i have latest firmvare onboard than site show? Nov 14 01:14:22 my n900's uptime rarely exceeds a few hours nowdays, but when microusb worked, it was usually on for a few weeks before reboots :p Nov 14 01:14:34 *between Nov 14 01:14:38 Drathir: please rephrase Nov 14 01:15:02 FIQ: does it slow down? Nov 14 01:15:39 mad_dev: I believe there is a footprint of having it on a long time, but it's minimal Nov 14 01:15:48 and not noticeable Nov 14 01:15:55 Drathir: no matter what's your current firmware version, you *want* to do a full reflash (combined & vanilla) on a freshly purchased N900 Nov 14 01:16:47 Drathir: you also want to learn how to do reflash, since you shouldn't be afraid to do that, and have done it before so you know it's easy Nov 14 01:17:30 takes less than one minute once you're used to it Nov 14 01:17:39 yep Nov 14 01:17:56 it's really painless Nov 14 01:18:08 so read Nov 14 01:18:11 ~flash Nov 14 01:18:12 well, maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware Nov 14 01:18:37 and get used to it, so you know what you don't nneed to do biut always *could* do Nov 14 01:18:38 remember to hold U....it got me the first time. Nov 14 01:18:55 (and if you actually keep the binaries afterwards) Nov 14 01:19:27 yes, you wanna create a dir on your PC for N900-related stuff Nov 14 01:19:30 DocScrutinizer05: ok i think it is possible that i have latest n900 firmware tnan nokia site show? i must check the code back for a second... Nov 14 01:20:06 it is possible, but - as explained before - irrelevant Nov 14 01:20:18 you want to do a full reflash right now Nov 14 01:20:25 Drathir: it's possible that you have the latest fw right now yes, but you don't want to continue use it before reflash Nov 14 01:20:35 as it isn't new Nov 14 01:20:45 to erase stuff from previous owner Nov 14 01:20:55 you want to clean your device to virgin state, and you wanna learn how easy and convenient the process is Nov 14 01:21:45 DocScrutinizer05: why does vanilla make system unbootable btw? doesn't make sense to me Nov 14 01:22:02 vanilla nukes /opt Nov 14 01:22:05 (i.e. flashing vanilla and then not flash combined) Nov 14 01:22:30 hm Nov 14 01:22:58 but combined doesn't touch /opt, does it? Nov 14 01:23:09 it does! a lot Nov 14 01:23:21 hmm ok Nov 14 01:23:27 but it does not remove any stuff Nov 14 01:23:27 Drathir: just do it...update to latest CSSU...and enjoy it Nov 14 01:23:31 only loads the defaults again Nov 14 01:23:34 it cleans out opt to empty state, then runs one-time-optificatrion Nov 14 01:23:35 that's the difference Nov 14 01:23:50 DocScrutinizer05: rly`? Nov 14 01:23:53 yes Nov 14 01:23:56 I thought it just reset rootfs Nov 14 01:24:01 doesn't it leave the old stuff behind? Nov 14 01:24:06 nope Nov 14 01:24:20 combined cleans /opt Nov 14 01:24:44 only on first-boot Nov 14 01:24:44 ah well you learn somehting new each day :) Nov 14 01:25:14 "only on first boot" Nov 14 01:25:17 that's why you mustn't boot device after combined flashing, before flashing vanilla Nov 14 01:25:36 then I can't see why you need to do combined+vanilla+combined Nov 14 01:25:45 or rather: flash combined (again) after vanilla Nov 14 01:25:45 (the third part) Nov 14 01:26:04 ^^^ Nov 14 01:26:29 well.. don't boot then? :p Nov 14 01:26:40 that's not that simple Nov 14 01:26:50 and thus only for "experts" Nov 14 01:26:58 see Nov 14 01:27:01 ~flash Nov 14 01:27:02 maemo-flashing is, like, http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware Nov 14 01:27:28 3 seconds are more than enough to spoil things Nov 14 01:28:06 if you wanna flash vanilla *after* combined, you have to make sure it doesn't boot for 0.01 seconds Nov 14 01:28:28 or you simply flash combined again after vanilla Nov 14 01:28:33 Drathir: always, always backup your data....always Nov 14 01:28:40 and reboot does't care anymore Nov 14 01:29:00 mad_dev: he has no data yet to backup Nov 14 01:29:04 sheß Nov 14 01:29:07 ? Nov 14 01:29:48 DocScrutinizer05: hmmm ok Nov 14 01:29:53 DocScrutinizer05: just a general reminder Nov 14 01:30:04 sounds as bad design of the process Nov 14 01:30:10 mad_dev: pretty ok Nov 14 01:30:31 FIQ: optification is a botch Nov 14 01:31:01 but a botch you can live with if you understand the implications Nov 14 01:33:06 ~optification Nov 14 01:33:06 optification is a inventive duct tape workaround to reclaim space in fs root, done due to the fact the systeminit *and* partitioning is FUBAR, http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Packaging,_Deploying_and_Distributing/Installing_under_opt_and_MyDocs, or ""OMG - I wish they looked into FHS and moved /usr to eMMC"", http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE2 bullet1,2 and fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE16 dot3" Nov 14 01:34:44 ok im back Nov 14 01:34:54 Drathir: get flasher-3.5, *combined* LATEST (preferably international version), and *vanilla* Nov 14 01:35:16 i find it odd that n900 emulates gba better than gb(c) due to lack of good gbc emulator Nov 14 01:35:16 mad_dev: i think to do rsync with my home server... Nov 14 01:35:54 Drathir: I'll share a site once you got your device flashed. it has all you need for rsync Nov 14 01:36:04 Drathir: even better Nov 14 01:36:42 (not odd due to not logical, but due to the fact that apparently none decided to do any better emulator than vgb, which has audio issues making it unbearable, and also isn't fullspeed) Nov 14 01:40:12 Drathir: most imprtant with flashing: don't forget to blacklist cdc_phonet Nov 14 01:40:42 DocScrutinizer05: whats cdc_phonet? Nov 14 01:40:48 DocScrutinizer05: what's the purpose of the module? Nov 14 01:41:06 a kernel module on PC that spoils the soup Nov 14 01:41:23 but why does it exist? Nov 14 01:41:29 I dunno what dist Doc runs but neither on buntkuh nor on debian does that module spoil the fun Nov 14 01:41:36 FIQ: purpose: enable apps to connect *directly* to N900 modem Nov 14 01:41:43 merlin1991: it did on arch Nov 14 01:43:06 plug in N900 via usb. do `lsmod|grep phonet`. If any hits, you got a problem and need to blacklist cdc_phonet Nov 14 01:45:15 find /usr -name '*phonet*' Nov 14 01:45:38 s/usr/lib/ Nov 14 01:45:39 DocScrutinizer05 meant: find /lib -name '*phonet*' Nov 14 01:48:19 FYI: /lib/modules/3.1.10-1.16-desktop/kernel/drivers/net/usb/cdc-phonet.ko Nov 14 01:48:42 and that *does* spoil stuff Nov 14 01:49:24 one of the most useless kernel modules I ever seen, on a x86 Nov 14 01:50:40 merlin1991: btw, you dunno which distro I run? seriously? openSuse Nov 14 01:52:01 Drathir: we're all waiting for the mega-event Nov 14 01:52:08 :-) Nov 14 01:52:21 ?

Nov 14 01:59:27 Drathir: as mentioned before, your current version is basically irrelevant Nov 14 02:01:18 Drathir: though I quite understand you wanna make friend with your new shiny cute N900 first, I still suggest you take the challenge to flash it before you do *anything* with it Nov 14 02:01:51 Drathir: do you mean the current OR the one you downloaded? Nov 14 02:02:03 oooh Nov 14 02:02:16 didn't think of that Nov 14 02:03:02 is my version outdated (less than PR1.3.x)? Nov 14 02:03:02 Drathir: ??
