**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Sep 19 02:59:59 2015 Sep 19 03:05:32 Ah yeah, it's about the same normally. Sep 19 05:12:24 hmm, clean flash, trying to install cssu-thumb fails Sep 19 05:12:31 do i have to install normal cssu first? Sep 19 05:52:40 * Maxdamantus likes this comment in /usr/sbin/umountfs: Sep 19 05:52:40 # Note: please do not whine, whole thing is still a temp hack. Sep 19 05:52:58 Probably explains why my ext3 filesystem is never unmounted. Sep 19 05:53:06 well, was. Sep 19 05:53:25 * Maxdamantus has now added some sysrq-trigger hacks around it that should try to force unmount it. Sep 19 05:54:10 (unmounting isn't that important with log-based filesystems like ubifs) Sep 19 05:54:39 .. or btrfs. Sep 19 11:06:29 ~flatbat Sep 19 11:06:33 ~ping Sep 19 11:06:34 1 packet transmitted, 1 packet received, 0.0% packet loss Sep 19 11:06:40 ~flatbatrecover Sep 19 11:06:40 Remove battery for 1 minute. Insert battery. Plug powered ***NOKIA WALLCHARGER*** to device. Watch steady amber. Let sit and charge. Do NOT try to boot. After 30 min, you got either a) a booted up N900, b) flashing amber which means you can boot, c) steady amber shut off -> start over again with ~flatbatrecover while already searching for a new battery. CAVEAT! Only works when ~rootfs OK (no ~bootloop) Sep 19 11:41:08 funnily it doesnt even want to show for flasher to boot Sep 19 11:47:53 ~ping -c 42 Sep 19 11:47:54 pong -c 42 Sep 19 11:49:01 show what where? Sep 19 12:34:37 hm? Sep 19 12:40:20 maxd: show that flatbatted n900 on thinkpad for flasher-3.5 booting Sep 19 12:42:30 Doesn't it have to get to the point where it can try to boot before doing that? Sep 19 12:42:42 ie, where it shows the Nokia logo or something Sep 19 12:42:46 *sigh* of course Sep 19 12:42:57 yes, it was showing nokia logo Sep 19 12:43:11 but in dmesg it was showing as rom nokia then as mass storage Sep 19 12:43:14 even when holding u Sep 19 12:43:59 ~bootloop Sep 19 12:44:00 extra, extra, read all about it, bootloop is when your device has broken rootfilesystem, so during reboot it fails on some service startup or kernel module load and thus reboots. This *drains* battery! And you can't reflash to stop bootloop when battery is drained. Recharge your battery by other means before reflashing. E.g. using ~rescueOS. Or external charger or BL-5J compatible other device. Sep 19 12:44:08 nope, rootfs is good Sep 19 12:44:18 aha Sep 19 12:44:29 (because it booted when i charged the battery in different device with different charger) Sep 19 12:44:35 knew it was a bad idea to answer Sep 19 12:45:57 i mean, booted when charged battery for 10 min then swapped back into this n900 Sep 19 12:46:09 and its charging normally now (also booted) Sep 19 12:47:12 offtopic, free red alert game on origin (if someone still remembers that) Sep 19 12:53:53 Is that UMS from the bootloader (NOLO?)? Sep 19 12:54:27 no Sep 19 13:01:36 NOLO either reports 'Product: Nokia N900 (Update mode)', 'New USB device found, idVendor=0421, idProduct=0105' and stays on USB logo NOKIA screen when holding 'U', or it decides that battery is too low for flashing and goes straight to booting linux/maemo to charge battery Sep 19 13:02:12 refer http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/ http://wiki.maemo.org/index.php?title=Special%3AAllPages&from=Joerg+rw&to=Joerg+rx&namespace=2 http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/PC_syslog_of_USB_enum Sep 19 13:06:00 is that part of this "ACT_DEAD" state? Sep 19 13:06:15 read the comment Sep 19 13:06:26 yes, it is Sep 19 13:07:00 lol BL-5J Sep 19 13:07:01 though maybe only for me since I might have changed some sysconfig vars regarding what's active in ACT_DEAD Sep 19 13:07:08 nice going on not making that bootloop entry universal :D Sep 19 13:07:09 huh? Sep 19 13:07:18 ;) Sep 19 13:07:45 sorry you lost me Sep 19 13:08:00 thats ok Sep 19 13:08:21 i was commenting on that -maemo- has no dependancy on the 'BL-5J' battery Sep 19 13:08:40 so it does not make sense to make common knowledge base entries suggest that :D Sep 19 13:08:46 you still lost me. How could an OS have a dependency on a battery? Sep 19 13:09:26 and wtf is a "common knowledge base entry"? Sep 19 13:09:47 ~bootloop Sep 19 13:09:48 well, bootloop is when your device has broken rootfilesystem, so during reboot it fails on some service startup or kernel module load and thus reboots. This *drains* battery! And you can't reflash to stop bootloop when battery is drained. Recharge your battery by other means before reflashing. E.g. using ~rescueOS. Or external charger or BL-5J compatible other device. Sep 19 13:10:11 as far as i can tell, this applies to N700, N800 and N810 aswell Sep 19 13:10:18 which dont have a BL-5J Sep 19 13:10:49 no Sep 19 13:11:20 N810 for exanple boots from external charger Sep 19 13:11:23 N800 doesnt have a rootfs? :D Sep 19 13:11:30 *sigh* Sep 19 13:11:32 ah, so bootloop only applies to N900? Sep 19 13:11:43 maybe that entry should reflect that then ;) Sep 19 13:12:25 maybe you want to open a channel #maemo-diablo then?

However user buZz insisted that ~#maemo bootloop doesn't apply here since N810 has no BL-5J Sep 19 13:19:40 okay, DocScrutinizer05 Sep 19 13:21:58 let me know when you have a #maemo-diablo channel and want infobot join it, with searchorder 'factoidSearch => $chan _default' Sep 19 13:27:39 * buZz is pretty offended by your 'divide and conquer' angle Sep 19 13:28:10 * DocScrutinizer05 is pretty pissed why peole think he should fix stuff for them Sep 19 13:29:29 i -didnt- think that Sep 19 13:29:39 YOU assumed so Sep 19 13:29:56 its cute you have helpdesk genes, but plz dont force them upon ppl Sep 19 13:30:59 *plonk* Sep 19 13:32:49 listen buddy! I created that factoid as you can see above. You criticized it. You're free to fix the factoid by yourself if you have a really better idea that also fits into the limitations of that system Sep 19 13:35:03 a "LOL" and criticism on something I created and then feeling *offended* when I suggest a solution (though admittedly tongue in cheek) while you could have done any improvement by yourself instead of going "LOL", that's pretty childish Sep 19 13:36:33 DocScrutinizer05: sorry that your actions have responses Sep 19 13:36:59 you're trying to be an asshat, right? Sep 19 13:37:44 done, welcome to my /ignore Sep 19 13:37:51 how about you rather contribute *constructively* instead of doing your trolling Sep 19 13:39:46 but yeah, /ignore works too. You don't need to see the truth about your actions Sep 19 13:42:38 * DocScrutinizer05 idly wonders how people come to think infobot was maemo specific or would hold any such thing like "common knowledge base entries" they need to criticize instead of simply fixing them Sep 19 13:43:53 hidden context Sep 19 13:44:57 human's thinking process is programmed to assume things and fill gaps Sep 19 13:51:49 I admit that though this channel is #maemo, it chengd a bit during last 5 years so now you very likely get a maemo-fremantle specific anser in here to any generic maemo related question Sep 19 13:52:38 thats assuming, but usually people say which device they have Sep 19 13:53:08 if you want to discuss N8x0 or Nokia 700 specific topics, you need to clearly specify so Sep 19 13:54:54 nokia 770 Sep 19 13:55:05 770 Sep 19 13:57:45 >>Recharge your battery by other means before reflashing (only tested on N900).

Why not to query them? Sep 19 18:53:14 would require specifying target nick Sep 19 18:57:24 target would be the one asking, right? Sep 19 18:58:49 no, imagine you wanted to help someone Sep 19 19:00:21 KotCzarny: faster than apt? Sep 19 19:00:57 sicelo, dont know if it uses apt commands or just apt-lib Sep 19 19:01:44 but fast when displaying lists, also has many filters (ie. you can display removed packages with residual content etc) Sep 19 19:10:12 if you want to check it i can give you package Sep 19 19:12:27 but it builds without any problem Sep 19 19:12:29 :) Sep 19 19:12:32 no thanks Sep 19 19:12:45 you will need to hack gtkrc a bit to make it more readable (small screen) Sep 19 19:12:48 i think it has also existed in repos, hasn't it? Sep 19 19:12:53 nope Sep 19 19:13:01 no one bothered apparently Sep 19 19:13:23 have you ever used synaptic? Sep 19 19:13:24 hmm, i seem to remember seing it Sep 19 19:13:34 ~tell Vajb about flashing Sep 19 19:13:47 KotCzarny: i use debian (since 5.0) so the answer is definitely a yes Sep 19 19:14:14 sicelo: for me, synaptic is one of the best dpkg/apt frontends Sep 19 19:14:39 for maemo it would require some ui changes, though still is nice Sep 19 19:14:43 so it already does that if asked Sep 19 19:15:33 Vajb: simple answer: there are no long answers from infobot since they would be useless for the standard usecase of bot: in channel factoid query Sep 19 19:15:59 $ apt-cache policy synaptic Sep 19 19:16:15 0.62.1maemo2 0 Sep 19 19:16:15 500 http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/non-free Packages Sep 19 19:16:15 0.62.1maemo1 0 Sep 19 19:16:15 500 http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/non-free Packages Sep 19 19:16:22 non-free?
