**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Dec 01 03:00:02 2017 Dec 01 07:13:32 ok. Stuck with joy2key so i tried somehing else. As i told earlier I noticed that /dev/input/keypad is ln -s to dev/input/event1 and that when js0 appears even4 gets created. So i ln -s js0 to event4, but that is still missing something Dec 01 07:15:10 guess i need something to listen to event4 and passing that to keypad presses, but no idea where to look at Dec 01 07:16:39 in joy2key the problem is that it can't find the window to direct keypresses to -X doesn't work as an argument and anything else i tried wont work either. Dec 01 07:17:19 ho hum. you might try wmctrl to list the windows then pass the proper window to j2k Dec 01 07:18:05 there is also --scancodes option which might be doing something low level Dec 01 07:18:44 drnoksnes says it is wm class drnoksnes_startup, but j2k doesn't seem to accept anything but plain -X as window argument Dec 01 07:20:57 what does wmctrl -l says? Dec 01 07:21:29 wait me to install it first Dec 01 07:24:03 hildon-status-menu, desktop, lots of hildon-home, 6 times sticky notes widget, 9 times kuvat (pictures in english) and three time x terminal Dec 01 07:24:16 i meant with that emu running Dec 01 07:24:54 DrNokSnes Dec 01 07:25:09 try to copy paste it into j2k param Dec 01 07:25:20 keep in mind it might need to be the first param Dec 01 07:25:29 u mean while line? Dec 01 07:25:34 whole* Dec 01 07:25:36 no, just Dr.. Dec 01 07:25:40 k Dec 01 07:25:41 but case might matter Dec 01 07:26:36 but there is minor problem. I can't launch wmctrl -l when actual game is running coz it gets killed when ever i unfocus it Dec 01 07:26:47 use ssh? Dec 01 07:27:03 `ln -s js0 event4` probably isn't useful. Dec 01 07:27:04 for now i would like to just try to make it work Dec 01 07:27:04 bah :) Dec 01 07:27:10 js* and event* use different protocols. Dec 01 07:27:13 it could be made into script later Dec 01 07:27:32 event* is a stream of `struct input_event`s .. js* is something else. Dec 01 07:28:10 ok i'll try and report back. Now im on my way so can't make any ssh stuff Dec 01 07:28:54 should i try -X Dr.... or -Dr...? Dec 01 07:29:03 or even X_Dr Dec 01 07:29:16 just joy2key "DrNokSnes" -someparams Dec 01 07:29:42 js* is a stream of `struct js_event`s. Dec 01 07:30:55 So unless some program figures out (by resolving the link, or figuring out the major/minor numbers of the open fd), it's just going to be interpreting nonsense if it opens a "js*" device when expecting an "event*" device or vice-versa. Dec 01 07:31:27 Maxdamantus: i just tried to copy what somethign which works, does :) Dec 01 07:32:01 If you're not getting a "js*" device, it'll be because there's nothing in the kernel to create a js device from the input device. Dec 01 07:32:14 btw isn't gamepad with buttons kinda event device? Dec 01 07:32:24 yes, but js events Dec 01 07:32:47 Yes, that's why there's usually an event device created as well as a js device. Dec 01 07:32:51 hmm so i might be missing something from the kernel too? Dec 01 07:33:06 Different applications can interpret the data from different devices. Dec 01 07:35:34 when i connect that gamepad it creates js0 and event4 and when i do cat js0 i got jibberish when i press buttons so it works in some level Dec 01 07:36:34 Okay. If you want a similar thing without jibberish, I suspect `jstest` should be in the maemo repositories .. I think it's part of some SDL package. Dec 01 07:37:49 Hm, maybe not. Dec 01 07:37:55 yeah i have it. Failed to make it work and forgot it :D Dec 01 07:38:14 it is package joystick Dec 01 07:38:23 and it works with command jstest Dec 01 07:38:42 Okay, guess my package lists are probably out of date. Dec 01 07:38:54 i installed and tried to figure how to fire it up, but i was already lost when i typed joy and hit tab Dec 01 07:39:10 jstest /dev/input/js0 Dec 01 07:39:24 and it should just keep printing the state of the joystick to stdout. Dec 01 07:39:28 yes i know now :) Dec 01 07:40:00 but on my way to school so wont be able to test yet Dec 01 07:40:44 will report back in an 6 hours or so Dec 01 07:41:58 would be neat to make this work to prevent me of doing something usefull ;) Dec 01 07:43:05 hehe Dec 01 07:51:33 oh now that i remember. Maemo pdf readers, which i've used, lack one key feature. They don't remember the page were reading Dec 01 07:52:08 i kinda like the way iPod does that Dec 01 08:33:00 Bootup reason: 32wd_to . Why did this unexpected reboot occur? What was the problem encountered by watchdog? Dec 01 08:55:04 Why did C FM radio parrot back sounds it heard in microphone, instead of providing radio? Is it because of the headphones having a microphone? Dec 01 10:26:16 * CatButts patiently waits for CSSU Testing to become installable again Dec 01 10:38:04 Why is it not installable? Dec 01 10:39:17 http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog/%23maemo.2017-11-30.log.html#t2017-11-30T23:24:37-2 Dec 01 10:39:24 probably starting from here Dec 01 10:39:43 it tells me that cssu enabler is not found Dec 01 10:39:57 when using one-click install Dec 01 10:40:27 There is life on this channel ? Dec 01 10:40:41 define life Dec 01 10:41:12 meow Dec 01 10:41:18 I pass on that Dec 01 10:41:30 define life that is Dec 01 10:41:39 you should try ##symbian m14ed :P Dec 01 10:42:08 sorry, I mean #symbian Dec 01 10:42:46 damned freenode and its double hash fetish Dec 01 10:43:26 double hash does make sense to old men Dec 01 10:44:31 I was aware of issues with thumb and curl but not that. Was the update tested before release like it normally is? Dec 01 10:45:07 I tested it :P Dec 01 10:46:13 like a couple of people install it from an alternative repo before it's officially released to iron out problems? Dec 01 12:45:19 is curl issue still waiting for me to try to update first curla and then cssu? Dec 01 12:45:28 curl* Dec 01 13:19:03 ok it seems that jstest gives me sensible data Dec 01 13:19:21 now i have button values to fill reasonable to j2k Dec 01 13:23:35 Vajb: re: curl, try it, and let me know :) Dec 01 13:23:59 haha ;) Dec 01 13:24:46 ok and j2k still fails with "error cant find window to send events to" Dec 01 13:29:26 vajb: even with adding window param? Dec 01 13:29:40 yes Dec 01 13:29:49 weird Dec 01 13:30:03 actually there r four new things with drnoksnes running rom Dec 01 13:30:03 you might also try su - user before Dec 01 13:30:24 nokia-n900 drnoksnes Dec 01 13:30:57 then n/a drnoksnes - pinball dreams < twice Dec 01 13:31:12 and n/a sd1_haa window Dec 01 13:39:35 i am starting to think that i wont be solving this Dec 01 13:54:16 ho hum. n900 doesnt support wifi-n Dec 01 13:54:19 bummer. Dec 01 13:59:13 bg i guess its normal for that time, and rare the power of device... Dec 01 14:00:55 The IEEE has approved the amendment, and it was published in October 2009 Dec 01 14:01:00 missed by a year, eh Dec 01 14:37:25 hmm, since latest CSSU-T I have audio dropout (reproducible, identical) during charger-plugin-swoosh Dec 01 14:38:06 not that this was a big issue by itself, but it points to a more generic problem Dec 01 14:41:43 recaler totally roins audio since quite some time already. I wonder if something re PolypAudio changed that's causing all this Dec 01 14:42:01 recaller totally ruins* Dec 01 14:45:57 \o/ i got it to register keypresses! Dec 01 14:46:14 installing x11-utils was the key Dec 01 14:46:30 now it works via hexid of the window Dec 01 14:47:19 now remains to be solved, how to figure out which is the spawning window id when i start rom... Dec 01 14:57:10 huh? Dec 01 14:58:27 KotCzarny: even today _many_ devices have no 5GHz WLAN, only 2.4GHz Dec 01 14:59:30 DocScrutinizer05: i've been playing with gamepad settings on n900... Dec 01 15:05:18 DocScrutinizer05: 2.4Ghz should be considered dead, though. Dec 01 15:05:29 why Dec 01 15:05:43 Too much interference to get any kind of decent bandwidth. Dec 01 15:05:53 teotwaki: dead? nah, overcrowded Dec 01 15:06:04 DocScrutinizer05: That's what I meant Dec 01 15:07:00 I'm pretty happy with everybody and their dog and cat going 2.4, the less mess on 5 Dec 01 15:07:21 meow Dec 01 15:09:18 for your convenience (CSSU-T12): gconftool -s /apps/osso/status-area-applet-battery/show_charge_charging -t bool true **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Dec 01 15:16:55 2017 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Dec 01 15:16:55 2017 Dec 01 15:17:27 DocScrutinizer05: that's the whole point of 5, though. Everyone can use it like crazy, but the shorter spread means you're not as affected. Dec 01 15:19:06 the problem is not bandwidth, but human stupidity Dec 01 15:19:30 make something free, get it thrashed **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Dec 01 15:20:47 2017 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Dec 01 15:21:01 2017 Dec 01 16:39:28 hmm i'd like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZc5gUKcRZA Dec 01 16:39:55 using orange pi instead of raspberry pi for extra power Dec 01 17:01:53 Tired. Dec 01 17:37:29 does TV out on the n900 activate automagically when plugged in? Dec 01 17:37:40 yup Dec 01 17:37:50 in clone mode Dec 01 17:37:53 then my cable is less than automagic Dec 01 17:38:07 I solder doohickey Dec 01 17:38:15 see pinout Dec 01 17:38:19 http://pinouts.ru/visual/gen/nokia_n95_tvout.jpg Dec 01 17:38:40 seems ok Dec 01 17:38:50 check for continuity Dec 01 17:39:57 also if you dont have any shorts Dec 01 17:41:41 seems ok Dec 01 17:41:56 better put on some shorts :P Dec 01 17:43:01 btw. orange pi uses same av cable pinout Dec 01 17:54:34 does any symbol appear when TV-out is engaged? Dec 01 17:55:21 dont remember, let me check Dec 01 17:59:54 no symbol, but if you click on systray area (clock) it will have tv item Dec 01 18:00:06 and will say 'tv enabled' Dec 01 18:02:03 but it will only show when you plug the yellow cable somewhere Dec 01 18:03:16 can I plug only yellow cable? Dec 01 18:03:22 yup Dec 01 18:03:36 I'll short it to see what happan Dec 01 18:03:45 it was enough to plug the yellow one in the usb grabber, doesnt have to be plugged to pc Dec 01 18:05:56 shorting yellow cable gives me headset symbol Dec 01 18:06:20 plug it into some grabber card? Dec 01 18:06:44 plugged it into TV Dec 01 18:06:50 nada on AV Dec 01 18:07:12 CatButts: you need to plug the TV out cable into TV first, then plug into n900 Dec 01 18:07:35 did as well Dec 01 18:07:40 ok Dec 01 18:07:47 just checking :P Dec 01 18:19:01 oh wait Dec 01 18:19:06 TV says Dec 01 18:19:27 Video | L Audio R Dec 01 18:19:29 OUT Dec 01 18:19:36 not IN Dec 01 18:19:40 fun Dec 01 18:19:45 you suck? ;) Dec 01 18:19:59 pray you didnt fry anything Dec 01 18:21:17 * CatButts covers his willy in tin foil and sticks it in the mains outlet Dec 01 18:21:47 hi all :) Dec 01 18:21:55 uh, hello Dec 01 18:22:31 did someone help me to install boot menu on my N900 pr1.3 Dec 01 18:35:15 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DP7P6g2VwAAoEG1.jpg:orig unrelated Dec 01 19:21:12 i have installed boot menu Dec 01 19:21:39 but i have no option to boot from sd card Dec 01 19:34:16 let me put it this way: noot menu doesn't create options, it provides the options you configured Dec 01 19:34:51 boot menu* Dec 01 19:35:37 also actually boot menu isn't to select different boot systems. You use uBoot for that Dec 01 19:37:51 does uBoot make BootMenu redundant? Dec 01 19:38:03 alas uBoot comes with a wizard that creates uBoot boot entries from bootmenu file tree structure entries, which makes uBoot look like it was related to bootmenu, which it absolutely isn't Dec 01 19:38:59 CatButts: no, botmenu is *after* kernel booted, just vefore "init" starts Dec 01 19:39:26 i installed Fanoush BootMenu Dec 01 19:39:31 I mean, if you have uBoot, would you even need BootMenu? Dec 01 19:40:02 uBoot does'nt rise in app manager Dec 01 19:40:06 so bootmenu is pretty much the first regular program that runs *after* boot, while uBoot is a boot manager running to load kernel Dec 01 19:41:01 so what i can do to boot from sd card? Dec 01 19:45:01 bootmenu is the thing that backs up your rootfs + optfs right? Dec 01 19:45:56 basically yes. bootmenu starts backupmenu Dec 01 19:46:11 uboot lets you load different kernels, whereas bootmenu is kinda attached to the main kernel Dec 01 19:46:31 kalin: learn how to create a uBoot entry pointing to your kernel and rootgs on uSD Dec 01 19:46:43 roofs even Dec 01 19:46:48 meh Dec 01 19:47:32 card must be formated in ext2/3 yes? Dec 01 19:47:41 nfc Dec 01 19:47:48 I'd think yes Dec 01 19:48:00 DocScrutinizer05, i have no uBoot in app manager Dec 01 19:48:06 at least one of the partitions Dec 01 19:48:19 if you have correct version of uboot, it can be formatted to ext4 Dec 01 19:48:57 kalin: you probably won't install uBoot from app manager Dec 01 19:49:11 ~uboot Dec 01 19:49:12 N900 uBoot is a siamese twin binary [uBoot+stockMaemoKernel] that resides in kernel NAND partition /dev/mtd3 aka "kernel". You can't uninstall it, rather you'll nuke it when you flash/install another kernel like stock maemo kernel or powerkernel. To start other than stock maemo kernel via uBoot, you have to provide the according kernel image files, or http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=81613 Dec 01 19:49:45 I like siamese Dec 01 19:50:12 ok Dec 01 19:50:48 did someone booted ubuntu mobile or arc linux from sd? Dec 01 19:51:04 I'm pretty sure, yes Dec 01 19:51:23 drivers are probably main caveat Dec 01 19:51:32 yes, sure Dec 01 19:51:55 now i put kubuntu image with dd to sd card Dec 01 19:52:07 but never try this Dec 01 20:01:28 yeah i have kalin Dec 01 20:01:38 i documented all the issues i encountered Dec 01 20:02:16 if you're interested kalin https://github.com/pkillnine/n900-ALarm/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed Dec 01 20:03:29 i don't use it tho, i switched back to CSSU maemo Dec 01 20:43:51 DocScrutinizer51: ping Dec 01 20:45:09 merlin1991: ping Dec 01 20:49:00 Are you able to update the file: 'http://repository.maemo.org/community-testing/community-testing-fremantle.install' and change the package line to 'package = community-ssu-enabler-testing'? doing that will fix the problem CatButts' is having. Dec 01 20:50:10 ilew: pong Dec 01 20:51:12 I'll give that a spin Dec 01 20:52:03 CatButts: Cheers Dec 01 20:53:56 It's probably not going to just work putting a kubuntu image on the SD card. Dec 01 20:55:47 You'd probably need to continue using your own kernel/modules, where you'd boot the system to the point where you can chroot/pivot_root and execv the desired init. Dec 01 20:58:17 ilew: I'm not in the position to do this. Plase ask merlin1991 Dec 01 20:58:34 Wizzup: Vajb: Just tested on my dev device, running "apt-get install curl" will fix the dependency and allow you to do the CSSU update. Dec 01 20:59:51 or, in emergency, ask techstaff aka warfare, xes Dec 01 21:00:38 ilew: anyway, you should evaluate who's *responsible* for that domain Dec 01 21:01:08 I'd assume resp edu-guess from URL that it's merlin1991 Dec 01 21:01:36 DocScrutinizer05: I don't think being unable to install CSSU testing to be an emergency. So I'll just send merlin1991 an email. Dec 01 21:03:51 ilew: who prepared and published T12? Dec 01 21:04:36 DocScrutinizer05: I prepared and pushed it, but merlin1991 ran the import process because I don't have access to the box. Dec 01 21:04:46 I see Dec 01 21:05:04 so it's basically you who's responsible Dec 01 21:05:36 Yes, but no permission to do anything about it. Dec 01 21:05:47 should fix that Dec 01 21:06:12 seems there's an organizational issue Dec 01 21:06:29 warfare: ping Dec 01 21:06:54 warfare: are you aware of what's going on with responsibility for repo VM? Dec 01 21:07:15 warfare: should ilew have access to that VM? Dec 01 21:09:23 ilew: isn' Dec 01 21:09:34 t that a topic for #maemo-ssu? Dec 01 21:11:40 DocScrutinizer05: People were reporting problems with CSSU updates/installs here, so I thought I'd mention it here just so people can see someone is working on it. Dec 01 21:12:35 ilew: it worked Dec 01 21:15:09 CatButts: Great, enjoy the new update and thanks for confirming the fix. Dec 01 21:16:46 i really need to setup maemo SDK Dec 01 21:17:06 just grab vm image of the sdk? Dec 01 21:20:42 hmm yeah i will, i thought it would be a lot slower Dec 01 21:22:54 if you knew how and what, simple chroot fits in ~300MB Dec 01 21:23:10 i have pasted the link somewhere in t.m.o Dec 01 21:25:21 i got scratchbox and ran the run_this_frst.sh and sbox_adduser.sh scripts Dec 01 21:25:24 is the battery indicator fix suppose to be turned on manually or does it come automagically with update? Dec 01 21:25:37 but i didn't move it to a suitable directory, it's just in my downloads directory Dec 01 21:25:54 i dunno if it registered that as the location somewhere Dec 01 21:26:22 what's the battery indicator fix CatButts? Dec 01 21:27:37 >When charging, reflect charge status in icon (e.g. battery half full: only upper half of icon animated); Dec 01 21:27:49 oh yeah, needs manual enable Dec 01 21:36:55 oh, the AV cable is working fine, I was just putting it in the wrong holes :P Dec 01 21:37:18 oh yeah that bothers me lol Dec 01 21:37:38 what's a gconf? Dec 01 21:38:48 gnome's config system i think Dec 01 21:39:11 >Can be enabled/disabled with gconf key /apps/osso/status-area-applet-battery/show_charge_charging Dec 01 21:59:09 ilew: OK, will try that now Dec 01 22:46:12 ilew: upgrade completed Dec 01 22:52:33 Wizzup: Thanks for confirming. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Dec 02 02:59:59 2017
