**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jul 20 02:59:58 2015 Jul 20 04:59:28 KotCzarny: https://wiki.maemo.org/Desktop_file_format (see X-Maemo-Prestarted) Jul 20 06:28:02 bencoh: what do i change from that file? shall i disable service entirely? Jul 20 06:28:16 or just -prestarted Jul 20 06:29:19 hmm, commenting prestarted stopped it autmatically, nice Jul 20 06:31:18 now, Jul 20 06:32:30 what are possible effects of disabling the prestart? it will only launch a bit longer or mail autochecks are done by it too? Jul 20 07:02:17 KotCzarny: reraid what doc said Jul 20 07:03:26 bencoh, i do agree that trimming too much is a bad thing, but there are things that i dont use, yet, they might be important to others in some way, is it bad to ask? Jul 20 07:04:04 I'm talking about what he said regarding modest and alarmd (whatever the spelling) Jul 20 07:11:41 hmm, alarmclient: not found Jul 20 07:12:01 installing Jul 20 07:13:01 [root@Nokia-N900:~]# alarmclient -L|grep modest Jul 20 07:13:01 [root@Nokia-N900:~]# Jul 20 07:13:30 i guess it only puts things on shedule if you have any email accounts with autochecks Jul 20 07:16:01 probably Jul 20 07:22:31 not adding any contacts to the desktop shaves 5-10M of memory Jul 20 07:31:23 microb settings don't affect browserd settings? Jul 20 07:32:48 hi, the Neo900 sounds awesome and it claims to care about my privacy. But what about radio triangulation? See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_tracking This is a major concern for me, in fact I don't use mobile phones for this reason. I guess the very same problem applies to the Neo900? Is it possible to disable the phone antenna and LTE and just use Wifi? Jul 20 07:33:08 gr8: there is #neo900 channel Jul 20 07:33:13 oh ok Jul 20 07:33:15 thx Jul 20 07:33:22 it's very specific question, you know Jul 20 07:33:37 the neo900 website directed me to this channel Jul 20 07:34:14 ahm, in general, if you dont use gsm modem, you can try setting offline mode Jul 20 07:34:32 but that will disable wifi on maemo too Jul 20 07:34:43 does it? [checks] Jul 20 07:35:03 ahm, right, shucks Jul 20 07:35:24 itt does yeah :) Jul 20 07:35:42 there might be some dbus command to turn the modem off Jul 20 07:35:45 but there is are tools which can disable only gsm or only wifi Jul 20 07:35:47 on droid 'plane mode' only disables gsm chip Jul 20 07:36:14 really? on Cyanogenmod it also disables Wifi Jul 20 07:36:28 Humpelstilzchen: he asked about neo900, it might be different than n900's dbus commands Jul 20 07:36:52 KotCzarny: not really when we use the same software.. Jul 20 07:37:21 yeah I mean if a linux kernel is running on it, it might be possible to use all linux commands, right? Jul 20 07:37:49 probably not all, might have a problem with some newer systemd ones.. Jul 20 07:37:51 yes, unless something is stuck into binary blob Jul 20 07:52:42 tmo jewels: gconftool-2 -s -t int /apps/osso/status-area-applet-battery/use_design_capacity 0 Jul 20 07:52:45 Above saves lot of frustration with getting completely BS values posing as correct, when battery gauge is not calibrated (at all 0 like, lost calibration data due to battery out of device for too long and dead bupbat). Jul 20 08:35:59 wiki.maemo.org is missing a favicon Jul 20 08:36:26 The requested URL /favicon.ico was not found on this server. Jul 20 10:00:42 l29ah: for your battery troubles, maybe you'll find some tricks there: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1431701 Jul 20 10:12:24 i don't see how it's relevant Jul 20 10:12:43 has some battery charging magic Jul 20 10:13:19 ie. if you cant get bme to make it work right, you can override it Jul 20 10:58:01 sirs I am loss Jul 20 10:58:10 where find compile repo for maemo? Jul 20 10:58:20 that question doesnt compute Jul 20 10:58:33 KotCzarny: I wish compile maemo Jul 20 10:58:36 for device Jul 20 10:58:40 whole thing? Jul 20 10:58:48 yes, thanks Jul 20 10:58:50 especially kernel Jul 20 10:59:04 parts have sources, some are binary blobs though Jul 20 10:59:12 google found dead links :\ Jul 20 10:59:16 you wont be able to recompile everything Jul 20 10:59:26 which not? Jul 20 10:59:32 http://repository.maemo.org/pool/fremantle/free/k/kernel/ Jul 20 10:59:36 here be kernel Jul 20 10:59:39 and there is no easy process for a scratch build Jul 20 10:59:49 but anyway, see scratchbox Jul 20 10:59:50 just apt-get install kernel-source in scratchbox Jul 20 10:59:56 ~sb Jul 20 10:59:56 [scratchbox] a cross-compiling system that uses binfmt_misc, rpc calls, and an nfs mount to make a cross-build appear to be 100% native, and is found at http://www.scratchbox.org/, hosted by maemo now. Also at http://maemo.merlin1991.at/files/SB Jul 20 11:00:09 wait Jul 20 11:00:13 why no crosschain? Jul 20 11:00:18 ask nokia Jul 20 11:00:28 crossdev no? Jul 20 11:00:30 what breaks? Jul 20 11:00:46 you are free to prepare your own build env Jul 20 11:00:57 ok Jul 20 11:01:08 wont be easy though Jul 20 11:01:12 hoped past experience had found things not to do Jul 20 11:02:06 there was a gsoc to port maemo to the openembedded build system Jul 20 11:02:08 bencoh: can you be more specific? Jul 20 11:02:15 I see Jul 20 11:02:24 see: http://elinux.org/N900 Jul 20 11:02:28 for open/closed parts Jul 20 11:03:14 ah I had seen Jul 20 11:03:17 http://wiki.maemo.org/Free_Maemo Jul 20 11:03:26 and this too, though it might be a bit out of date Jul 20 11:04:15 A recnt kernel is probably relatively easy to compile. Jul 20 11:04:40 you just need a recent gcc/binutils targeted for ARM. Jul 20 11:04:41 Is armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi-' Jul 20 11:04:45 proper cross prefix? Jul 20 11:05:00 weren't some n900 things dropped from mainline? Jul 20 11:05:26 I will attempt to build system later using that. One thing I could not find is any kind of serial terminal. Is there a debug bridge over usb or similar? Jul 20 11:05:42 or would I need to break out the 1.8V tty pins Jul 20 11:05:48 on my device Jul 20 11:06:06 I don't think something like that would be necessary. Jul 20 11:06:26 if you're trying to use a recent kernel, fbcon works fine. Jul 20 11:06:40 https://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Hardware_Hacking Jul 20 11:07:05 there's probably some USB tty gadget you could use if you want too. Jul 20 11:07:08 also, google for openwrt port for n900, might be what you need Jul 20 11:07:08 Maxdamantus, what do you mean? Jul 20 11:07:09 Oh Jul 20 11:07:16 I will probably need to supply input Jul 20 11:07:22 device does not have on-the-go Jul 20 11:07:40 gadget is the opposite of OTG Jul 20 11:07:49 yes Jul 20 11:07:54 I have one that would work Jul 20 11:07:56 KotCzarny: yeah, some stuff broke, some even got dropped Jul 20 11:08:00 would just prefer not to solder :p Jul 20 11:08:43 meh I will put in order for some pogo pins Jul 20 11:18:08 hm ok Jul 20 11:18:46 If I enable OTG on my device (n900) and set console parameter, I should have something that will work if necessary Jul 20 11:31:08 https://wiki.maemo.org/Gentoo/N900 Jul 20 11:31:09 wooo Jul 20 11:31:25 don't get too excited, it's not 100% Jul 20 11:38:55 what works is sufficient Jul 20 11:39:30 if you wish to use it only as a minicomputer without phone part, sure, it works, you can even have android working Jul 20 11:39:42 natively Jul 20 11:40:14 I wish to use gentoo system as host and virtualize android or maemo Jul 20 11:40:25 Processor supports ARM TrustZone, should be possible Jul 20 11:43:36 but you know n900 only has 256M of ram? Jul 20 11:47:23 yes Jul 20 11:48:12 should've seen how many VMs I got in 2gb Jul 20 11:48:40 vm is not a problem, running fat apps is Jul 20 11:51:06 honestly it is mostly to copy AOSP. I don't use many apps myself, but having a "working" ecosystem already is nice Jul 20 11:51:22 AOSP telephony services* Jul 20 11:51:38 telephone service without any audio? Jul 20 11:52:00 if it works in maemo it will work eventually Jul 20 12:23:49 weird Jul 20 12:23:55 n900 dts got mainlined, yet there's no defconfig Jul 20 12:25:21 make rx51_defconfig Jul 20 12:25:40 read http://elinux.org/N900 Jul 20 12:57:17 yeah that doesn't exist Jul 20 12:57:59 huh Jul 20 14:17:43 R0b0t1: Maemo needs >256M by itself even without virt Jul 20 14:17:54 and *possible* != code exists Jul 20 14:18:02 luke, it doesnt, i still have some mem free Jul 20 14:18:08 tiny bit, but Jul 20 14:26:05 hm..speaking of gentoo on device..I'm surprised no one(s) [with far far more technical understanding than I that is] hasn't done antiX for arm....I think it was mentioned in their own forums once or twice about being open to it..but they don't savvy embedded from what I gather..so it was never done. Jul 20 14:50:54 netsplit? Jul 20 14:51:03 * DocScrutinizer05 kicks the bot Jul 20 14:51:20 looks like timeout Jul 20 14:51:23 not a netsplit Jul 20 14:51:40 ie. some server died Jul 20 14:51:46 *nod* Jul 20 14:52:03 anyway, bot is online again Jul 20 16:26:42 hello! connection is a bit unstable so i may ask this question again later :P(sorry about that!) Where can i find package dependencies that aren't available on any repos? Jul 20 16:27:23 ~repos Jul 20 16:27:24 i heard repos is deb http://mirrors.muarf.org/maemo/apt-mirror/mirror/downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/apps/ ./;; deb http://mirrors.muarf.org/maemo/apt-mirror/mirror/downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/mr0/ ./ Jul 20 16:27:28 ~maemo-repos Jul 20 16:27:28 i heard maemo-repos is http://wiki.maemo.org/Repository#List_of_Maemo_repositories Jul 20 16:36:08 i should probably add that i'm on OS 2008 Jul 20 16:36:09 i will check the second one now Jul 20 16:36:11 ok, i have all the diablo ones, and the tabletter servers must be down for a while now Jul 20 16:36:12 tableteer* Jul 20 16:36:44 yeah, tableteer went down, i have a copy locally on disk i think if you need specific packages Jul 20 16:37:53 145M catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com Jul 20 16:37:54 yeah Jul 20 16:38:08 :D Jul 20 16:38:18 dont know if its complete though Jul 20 16:38:20 you sound like a life saver Jul 20 16:38:53 i could make a list Jul 20 16:39:11 have you considered uploading it somewhere Jul 20 16:39:13 Ceres: did you try oscp? Jul 20 16:39:14 ? Jul 20 16:39:15 if you know some nice and easy file hosting i can upload it wholly Jul 20 16:40:05 i feel like i will be hated if i ask this but i dont know qhat that is Jul 20 16:40:25 the best media player for n8x0 and n900 Jul 20 16:40:30 (referring to oscp) Jul 20 16:40:41 unless you prefer media libraries, then it isnt Jul 20 16:41:03 but if you prefer dir/file libraries then there is nothing better Jul 20 16:41:16 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=94590 Jul 20 16:42:03 hmmm Jul 20 16:42:26 the one i can think of off the top of my head is libgcc-something Jul 20 16:42:53 and some c++ related libs? Jul 20 16:43:16 i only recently discovered irc so i havent tried installing again Jul 20 16:44:03 uuuum wetransfer is easy to use Jul 20 16:44:28 you upload what you want, share the link, and people download it Jul 20 16:44:42 catch is files are kept onlinw for a week or so Jul 20 16:44:46 checking it Jul 20 16:47:28 shouldnt gcc be in maemo.org repo? Jul 20 16:47:57 http://repository.maemo.org/pool/diablo/free/g/gcc-3.4/ Jul 20 16:47:59 yeah Jul 20 16:48:02 o0o0o Jul 20 16:48:04 3.4? Jul 20 16:48:10 why so early? Jul 20 16:48:15 stryngs, diablo is old Jul 20 16:48:18 Ah Jul 20 16:48:25 didnt pay attention =) Jul 20 16:48:37 ceres: what's your apr config? Jul 20 16:48:48 apt Jul 20 16:50:01 tableteer had some closed binaries with specific licenses, rest was in regular diablo repo Jul 20 16:50:24 uuuum Jul 20 16:51:23 deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ diablo free non-free Jul 20 16:51:36 you should have this one for most of the nokia provided stuff Jul 20 16:51:45 erm Jul 20 16:51:47 wrong link Jul 20 16:53:06 hmm Jul 20 16:53:07 are you asking me to send you my sources? :P Jul 20 16:55:27 how can i check the source repo of the package that is installed on the system? Jul 20 16:55:42 and by source i mean from where it was downloaded Jul 20 16:56:32 got DC'd, didn't see it if you replied Jul 20 16:56:32 :P Jul 20 16:57:40 ceres, as a side note, gcc is not meant to be installed on the device, only for sdk. if you want ondevice devel you have to be cautious and add sdk repo Jul 20 16:58:05 so i guess you can safely comment the tableteer repos Jul 20 16:58:13 ok this is frustrating, i'm getting DC'd all the time Jul 20 16:58:38 use some shell? Jul 20 16:58:55 if you guys are still here and willing to help i will ask you again when i'm off work! Jul 20 16:59:14 sure, but take a note ^ Jul 20 16:59:16 sorry for this but the internet sucks here -_- Jul 20 16:59:33 i'm logging all this so it's cool! ^_^ Jul 20 17:00:00 thanks for everything so far! :) Jul 20 17:00:08 later~! Jul 20 17:00:12 cya Jul 20 17:08:19 hmm, how to translate http://repository.maemo.org/pool/diablo/free/ into apt entry? Jul 20 17:08:45 it tries to add /dists/ everytime Jul 20 17:11:00 ok, it's for sdk. nvm Jul 20 17:11:15 https://wiki.maemo.org/Apt-mirror Jul 20 17:12:29 deb http://repository.maemo.org/ maemo4.1.2/sdk free non-free Jul 20 17:12:29 deb http://repository.maemo.org/ maemo4.1.2/tools free non-free Jul 20 17:12:34 KotCzarny ^^^ Jul 20 17:13:06 pali, thx, but i just realized that repo is for sdk (ie. scratchbox) Jul 20 17:13:20 yes it is sdk & tools repo Jul 20 17:13:30 all repos are on apt-mirror page Jul 20 17:16:11 pali: added to [[Repository]] page Jul 20 17:57:22 hmm, according to http://pinoutsguide.com/CellularPhones-Nokia/nokia_bl-4j_battery_pinout.shtml, bl-5j has a 100kOhm on bsi Jul 20 18:12:45 Sounds approximately right, if I remember correctly Jul 20 18:12:55 someone said 75 recently Jul 20 18:13:03 not that it matters much Jul 20 19:12:12 iirc it's more like 75k Jul 20 19:12:40 depending on temperature Jul 20 19:13:07 http://www.cpkb.org/wiki/Nokia_BL-5J_battery Jul 20 19:13:09 I helped Pali to create a table temperature-vs-resistance once Jul 20 19:13:16 another page claiming its 100k Jul 20 19:13:34 so? is it relevant? Jul 20 19:14:10 only if one builds own battery Jul 20 19:14:29 i guess for direct dc input without battery both values would work Jul 20 19:14:40 yes Jul 20 19:15:45 100.1k Jul 20 19:15:49 yes, DocScrutinizer05 provided data for temperature table Jul 20 19:16:00 says my KeySight Jul 20 19:16:05 and then on internet I found exact formula for that Jul 20 19:16:36 on a random battery labeled like it was a BL-5J Jul 20 19:16:58 how much on bp-5l (if you have one) Jul 20 19:19:22 100.0k on 2nd BL-5J99.9k on 3rd. And sorry what Pali and I did was temperature sensor iin N900, not BSI Jul 20 19:22:31 hmm, i wonder if bme could invalidate capacity for big capacity in l29ah case because of mismatching bsi coded one Jul 20 19:22:56 BP-5L? nope. BP-4L I got Jul 20 19:23:22 bp-5l was in 770 and n800 Jul 20 19:23:32 (also e61/e62/n92) Jul 20 19:23:38 and 9500 Jul 20 19:24:17 BP-4L: 120,2k Jul 20 19:24:46 (N810) Jul 20 19:24:51 https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9789 Jul 20 19:24:52 hmm Jul 20 19:24:53 04Bug 9789: Mugen battery: HAL not getting correct capacity and current states Jul 20 19:25:29 2.4Ah in mugen is 105k Jul 20 19:25:58 BME isn't made to detect different batteries by BSI Jul 20 19:26:08 afaik Jul 20 19:27:10 read that bug report, it's quite interesting Jul 20 19:27:11 it *is* capable to detect a so called "test battery", and possibly even a second breed maybe called debug Jul 20 19:27:56 KotCzarny: I'm absolutely sure I've already read every interesting maemo bug :-) Jul 20 19:28:01 :) Jul 20 19:31:11 KotCzarny: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9789#c4 Jul 20 19:31:14 04Bug 9789: Mugen battery: HAL not getting correct capacity and current states Jul 20 19:31:24 ~joerg Jul 20 19:31:24 hmm... joerg is a natural born EE, ex HW-developer and engineer of Openmoko.
