**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Aug 06 02:59:57 2011 Aug 06 03:01:23 no slower...just better. Aug 06 03:31:15 PatrickC, what did you need Aug 06 03:31:31 how would I package images into a patch? Aug 06 03:31:40 for submission to the patch portal Aug 06 03:32:37 you mean like screenshots? Aug 06 03:33:39 I want to have my patch replace images with edited ones Aug 06 03:34:00 a patch like that likely would have to be checked directly into the git repo Aug 06 03:34:31 ok. so I would just build an IPK? Aug 06 03:34:57 Abyssul: ping Aug 06 03:36:40 PatrickC, no Aug 06 03:36:57 look at how the sconix patches work with their additional files Aug 06 03:37:08 ok. Aug 06 03:37:14 it would require writing a patch, having a tar.gz with the extra images, having a custom postinst Aug 06 03:37:24 ok Aug 06 03:37:25 and having write access to the git repo Aug 06 03:37:53 well, once I get the patch finished, I'll worry about the last part Aug 06 03:43:16 advanced systems behavior is one of those, right? Aug 06 03:45:22 yeah Aug 06 03:46:11 there is no .tar.gz or a postinit Aug 06 03:46:29 are you looking at it on the github repo? Aug 06 03:46:45 I was looking at the ipkg.preware.org link Aug 06 03:46:52 where's the git repo for patches? Aug 06 03:46:58 git.webos-internals.org ? Aug 06 03:47:48 are you looking at it on the github repo? Aug 06 03:47:53 notice how I said GITHUB Aug 06 03:48:09 where is it? Aug 06 03:48:14 I've never seen it before Aug 06 03:48:15 and to do a patch like that requires having access to the patches repo as well as the build repo Aug 06 03:48:33 you could probably find it by looking at https://github.com/webos-internals/ Aug 06 03:48:36 well, once the patch is finished, I'll worry about that Aug 06 03:51:59 I don't see any tar.gz in the patches/2.1.0/advanced folder Aug 06 03:52:10 Abyssul: what new capabilities would you expect to appear from converting Preware to Enyo? Apart from making it incompatible with the majority of webOS devices existing right now? Aug 06 04:29:05 wirc on tp :-) Aug 06 04:29:27 cool :) Aug 06 04:29:37 I got our answer about the patch Aug 06 04:29:55 what's that Aug 06 04:30:10 "a patch like that likely would have to be checked directly into the git repo" Aug 06 04:30:23 " it would require writing a patch, having a tar.gz with the extra images, having a custom postinst" Aug 06 04:30:34 or just use a theme ipk Aug 06 04:30:55 and submit it as a patch? Aug 06 04:31:04 I'll probably work init sunday Aug 06 04:31:33 I guess either would work Aug 06 04:41:02 Cygwin worked like a charm, I don't know why they don't support it anymore. Aug 06 04:41:34 meta-doctored a 2.1 doctor for a sprint phone, and a 2.1 doctor for an at&t pre plus, both worked flawlessly. Aug 06 04:44:47 granted, I was using a full cygwin install, I don't know if a base install would have worked. Aug 06 04:46:03 Noob question: http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Chrooting says the option is "ADD_EXT3FS_PARTITION" but the MAKEFILE says "EXT3FS_PARTITION_SIZE" Can I assume the Wiki just wasn't updated, or do I need to add the option it specifies to the MAKEFILE? Aug 06 04:47:38 flare576, wiki is old Aug 06 04:47:46 danke! Aug 06 04:56:31 flare576: always trust the source code, not the documnentation Aug 06 04:56:53 thanks :) Aug 06 04:56:59 Muhb: Cygwin (or windows, dunno which) randomly causes people's phones to go into a reboot loop. Aug 06 04:57:46 flare576: please correct the wiki page Aug 06 05:00:41 done! Aug 06 05:44:57 Muhb: Cygwin (or windows, dunno which) randomly causes people's phones to go into a reboot loop. <-- not mine :B Aug 06 05:45:27 I'm curious to know what kind of setup others have had installed. Aug 06 05:46:50 It may also have been that they were enabling meta-doctor options that I didn't enable, options that require linux-specific functionality. I'm not familiar enough with the makefiles and all the hacks present to know what's required. Aug 06 05:51:06 The only major think I can think of that could potentially be an issue when using cygwin as opposed to true linux, is symlink and mount/loopback support. Aug 06 05:52:37 but from what I could tell, nothing I enabled required such functionaliy... or if it did, cygwin was able to fake it well enough, this time... not sure how it worked out, but I've got 2.1 on my pre+ now. :B Aug 06 05:54:14 Now the only remaining issue is figuring out how to sign into my palm profile... since the firstuse app is now the gesture tutorial, I'm not sure how to go about signing in, since I bypassed it, in hopes of doing it later... might have been a mistake, methinks... Aug 06 05:54:38 that was an ordeal.... Someday I'm going to learn "If it's not working the way you think it should, and you've followed all the instructions, shut everything down and restart" Aug 06 06:03:49 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppuZEo_IRSY Aug 06 06:08:16 well... that's no fun. I was hoping 3.0.2 would fix my WiFi issue... I'm set up using 128bit shared WEP, and the touchpad can't seem to connect... Pre- has no problem Aug 06 06:09:13 just comes back with "Unable to connect. Try again." When I turn off security, works fine. Aug 06 06:09:55 power cycled router, power cycled touchpad... re-entered the code about 20 times in case of typos... I'm sort of out of ideas. Aug 06 06:13:45 try changing broadcast to g-only.... I don't think anything in the house uses b... Aug 06 06:14:03 try popping it up to wpa? Aug 06 06:14:20 and odd characters in password? Aug 06 06:14:33 WPA doesn't work with some of our other devices Aug 06 06:14:39 password is all digits. Aug 06 06:15:02 G-only didn't help... Aug 06 06:15:43 SSID is all caps, though... that shouldn't matter Aug 06 06:16:51 odd, touchpad can't handle "Shared WEP," it has to be "Open" Aug 06 06:17:30 wonder what that will do to all the other devices... Aug 06 06:21:35 PuffTheMagic: been playing with tide. great work! Aug 06 06:21:54 thanks Aug 06 06:27:29 dwc-: ping? Aug 06 06:30:51 * Jack87 thinks he is having similar issue with wirc as dwc- Aug 06 06:31:52 ? Aug 06 06:36:46 dwc-: wirc disconnects me right as I send a message on both pre2 and veer Aug 06 06:38:53 its done that to me too Aug 06 06:39:22 flare576: update firmware from other devices that don't support wpa Aug 06 06:39:24 mmm, I don't usually see that Aug 06 06:39:34 when I DO send a message and it then tells me that it's disconnected Aug 06 06:39:43 I've *been* disconnected already, but wirc just hasn't told me about it Aug 06 06:39:49 Jack87: you update a Nintendo DS :) Aug 06 06:39:49 they most likely have firmware/drivers that support it Aug 06 06:40:09 one thing you can check before you hit enter in a channel is if the user count is 0 or not Aug 06 06:40:21 Jack87, https://www.box.net/shared/u1eorm9v62d956fdnd5o Aug 06 06:40:29 dwc-: it doesn't usually tell me 0 users Aug 06 06:40:32 the other is if you have another client or access to logs fo the channel, compare what time you see the disconnect when you hit enter Aug 06 06:40:39 it just disconnects me Aug 06 06:40:41 i've seen the 0 user bug now and then Aug 06 06:40:47 try the new ver Aug 06 06:40:48 thanks Mr puffy Aug 06 06:41:01 PuffTheMagic: dunno if you saw my earlier message, my plugin still crashed Aug 06 06:41:14 ... right after I left the office Aug 06 06:42:02 PuffTheMagic: it never says 0 users for me. just disconnects me Aug 06 06:42:06 its been doing it for some time now :'( hopefully this will resolve it Aug 06 06:42:08 so all my crashes, at least, aren't fixed... I'll try to stress it some more and see if I can get some more data for you Aug 06 06:42:17 PatrickC_, try the new ver Aug 06 06:42:21 PatrickC_: is there a "Connecting... disconnected" in your server window Aug 06 06:42:29 dwc-, does it ever crash not using ssl? Aug 06 06:42:34 PuffTheMagic: yes Aug 06 06:42:36 dwc-: there used to be Aug 06 06:42:47 haven't seen it in the new vers yet Aug 06 06:43:11 PuffTheMagic: I don't think Patrick_ uses SSL and he experiences same thing Aug 06 06:44:12 * PatrickC_ doesn't use SSL afaik Aug 06 06:44:52 * Jack87 hates tp browser download manager. works like shit Aug 06 06:46:18 use Universe :) Aug 06 06:48:16 Jack87, only dwc- experiences crashes from what i can tell Aug 06 06:48:26 dwc-, have u attached to the processes with gdb and got a bt? Aug 06 06:48:26 yay I'm special! Aug 06 06:48:47 PuffTheMagic: on a couple of occasions Aug 06 06:49:04 do you have them? Aug 06 06:49:26 I have one of them... only because it showed up while I was working on that last patch Aug 06 06:49:57 typically, I don't have gdb attached when it crashes because I'm not ssh'd into the phone Aug 06 06:49:59 dwc-: entire app crashed? Aug 06 06:50:52 and, the couple of times I've left gdb attached when I'm not paying attention, I come back to the phone, there was a crash (per logs) as well as a luna restart sometime after that but before I've gotten back to it Aug 06 06:51:07 I am SO glad I made a backup of my old tokens... Aug 06 06:51:16 I wasn't aware that webosdoctor would overwrite them permanantly Aug 06 06:51:36 so I suspect there might be something where when the wirc plugin stops responding, it affects how the app and luna are able to function, and perhaps it kills/restarts them? Aug 06 06:52:05 puffthemagic: http://pastebin.com/wuEnB6jb Aug 06 06:53:00 typically, malloc() failing suggests there's already corruption prior to the malloc call, I think Aug 06 06:54:11 in case my line numbers aren't matching up with git, that's this line Aug 06 06:54:12 irc_session_t * session = malloc (sizeof(irc_session_t)); Aug 06 06:57:39 something with prefered interface it looks like Aug 06 06:59:13 preferred itnerface is set, but it's before any code ever handles it Aug 06 07:02:59 * Jack87 I skeptical if downloading is any better Aug 06 07:05:08 Jack87: ok dont try, dont complain either Aug 06 07:05:58 PuffTheMagic: what are you talking about? Aug 06 07:06:08 hmm... unlocking the screen... and ssh'ing into my phone, are ass slow again Aug 06 07:06:31 I wonder which palm process is hozing the system this time! Aug 06 07:07:02 of course I'm trying new version of wirc. I was talking about universe browser, and wasn't complaining Aug 06 07:08:18 and will return feed back soon if it resolved issue or not Aug 06 07:11:45 test Aug 06 07:11:46 looks like its working so far Aug 06 07:11:58 oh jesus, what did I do now. Trying to install UberKernal on Touchpad and getting "cp: write error: No space left on device" Wonder what I borked in MetaDoctor :/ Aug 06 07:11:59 PuffTheMagic: ping Aug 06 07:12:58 missing an /opt mount and now all that stuff ended up on the / filesystem? Aug 06 07:14:28 well no disconnect error thus far. looks like wirc 0.4.6 resolved it... either that or wirc just being reinstalled in general resolved it. will try uninstalling and reinstalling old version on pre2 and report back Aug 06 07:14:47 hrm, the only options I adjusted were "ENABLE_DEVLOPER_MODE", "AUTO_INSTALL_PREWARE", "ENABLE_TESTING_FEEDS", EXT3FS_PARTITION_SIZE = 10GB" Aug 06 07:15:23 flare576: how bigi Aug 06 07:15:30 is your tp? Aug 06 07:15:34 32gb Aug 06 07:15:36 pull up a terminal/ssh and see if "mount | grep /opt" turns up anything Aug 06 07:15:53 or if df -k /opt shows / or /opt Aug 06 07:16:13 but, while your'e there, plain 'ol df -k will show you which fs is full Aug 06 07:17:00 Terminal not showing up in Preware; dumb question time: is there a 3.0.2 version? Aug 06 07:17:15 ? Aug 06 07:17:19 lol Aug 06 07:17:26 use novacom Aug 06 07:17:47 Jack87: what? Aug 06 07:17:47 PuffTheMagic: was pinging to test new version looks Aug 06 07:18:11 like a win for now Aug 06 07:18:15 flare576: use novacom Aug 06 07:18:34 There's no native terminal for 3.0? Aug 06 07:18:36 Jack87: ok doke; it's been a long night and I'm slowing down :) Aug 06 07:18:42 er, on-device, not native Aug 06 07:19:26 is rwhitby here? Aug 06 07:20:52 rrix: maybe xterm otherwise now Aug 06 07:21:02 ah, right Aug 06 07:21:59 and on screen keyboard has issues /w it I believe Aug 06 07:22:26 mount | grep /opt shows nothing, and /dev/mapper/store-root is full Aug 06 07:23:34 rwhitby? Aug 06 07:24:32 * Jack87 wonders what rwhitby's phone of choice is. Aug 06 07:25:36 I didn't think 10GB for ext3fs was out of line.... it's basically an OS partition for ubuntu... Aug 06 07:26:59 so rwhitby isn't available? Aug 06 07:27:04 ya min is 8gig for full install. 10 seems reasonable enough Aug 06 07:28:32 siestacat: its Saturday he is portly busy. hang tight he might be around later as usual. what did you need? maybe others can help. Aug 06 07:29:16 I need to talk to him about alpha-testing linphone Aug 06 07:29:29 I always miss him. Aug 06 07:29:40 different continents Aug 06 07:29:45 doesn't he have an email address? Aug 06 07:29:50 you can /msg him Aug 06 07:29:57 and stay logged in and he'll msg you back Aug 06 07:30:23 few options out there Aug 06 07:30:34 or, you can put something like "rwhitby: " ... he usually responds "check your pm" to people in channel so I assume he msg'ed them Aug 06 07:31:13 pm him in precentral? or leave a note in linphone thread if there is one Aug 06 07:31:25 here. Aug 06 07:32:03 don't think this will stay connected to IRC all night for msg to work Aug 06 07:32:17 ah, well, it helps to finish the instructions... :/ Aug 06 07:32:26 I'll pm him on precentral I guess Aug 06 07:32:56 do you have issues with wirc staying connected? Aug 06 07:34:32 yes Aug 06 07:38:25 flare576: what did you miss? Aug 06 07:38:29 well crap. I didn't finish the steps for mounting on boot initially (ext3fs) Aug 06 07:38:45 after adding it and restarting, the / is still full Aug 06 07:38:58 you have to remove the old crap Aug 06 07:39:04 that is still in / Aug 06 07:39:10 yup, I figured that, but I don't know where to look Aug 06 07:39:11 siestacat: Jack87, https://www.box.net/shared/u1eorm9v62d956fdnd5o Aug 06 07:39:15 root is a big place ;) Aug 06 07:39:18 unmount your /opt, cd to /opt and rm -rf * Aug 06 07:41:53 hrm. "/bin/sh: unmount; not found" Aug 06 07:42:03 umount Aug 06 07:42:43 thanks... I think I'm dangerously tired and inexperienced just now, but I'd like this thing working before I go to bed Aug 06 07:44:28 umount /opt gives "Invalid argument" and an "ls /opt" gives nothing Aug 06 07:44:56 s/nothing/empty directory Aug 06 07:45:48 are you cd'd into /opt already? Aug 06 07:45:54 nope, at root Aug 06 07:46:09 try umount -f /opt Aug 06 07:46:33 "can't forcibly unmount /opt: invalid argument" Aug 06 07:47:16 flare576: do you know how to use pastebin.com ? Aug 06 07:47:28 yup Aug 06 07:47:35 ok, undo what you did in the instructions to get /opt working, then reboot, then see what's in /opt Aug 06 07:47:52 ok dwc- Aug 06 07:49:38 flare576: pastebin the output of "cat /proc/mounts" and "df" Aug 06 07:52:56 ./proc/mounts: http://pastebin.com/MnYdWEmf df: http://pastebin.com/47PqfqWt Aug 06 07:54:09 ok, so you have an ext3fs partition and it's mounted Aug 06 07:54:29 and your rootfs is full Aug 06 07:54:57 yes, but I did it after I downloaded the ubuntu 11.04 chroot Aug 06 07:55:08 so, if /opt is empty, then it's likely you have stuff in /media/ext3fs which is occluded by the mount Aug 06 07:55:08 so umount /media/ext3fs Aug 06 07:55:08 then check in /media/ext3fs for files Aug 06 07:55:28 if there is stuff in there after you've unmounted it, then delete that stuff. Aug 06 07:55:57 what has happened is the ubuntu chroot has ended up in the tiny / partition cause the ext3fs partition was not mounted Aug 06 07:56:06 yay! Aug 06 07:57:01 and then "mount /dev/mapper/store-ext3fs /media/ext3fs" to put it back? Aug 06 07:57:17 once you have deleted the files that ended up in the root partition, yes. Aug 06 07:57:42 pastebin cat /proc/mounts and df again after you've done that to be sure Aug 06 07:59:57 new /proc/mounts: http://pastebin.com/PnwYvge8 new df: http://pastebin.com/APi04tQs Aug 06 08:00:27 UberKernal install successful Aug 06 08:01:34 thank you, rwhitby, I understand the underlying behavior of linux mounting much better! Aug 06 08:04:16 those pastes look much better Aug 06 08:04:16 you'll need to reinstall the ubuntu chroot Aug 06 08:04:16 make sure you change /etc/fstab to mount ext3fs automatically Aug 06 08:04:16 and remember that OTA updates are likely to break that Aug 06 08:05:00 already reinstalled ubuntu chroot, updated fstab between downloads :) and I'll remember! Aug 06 08:05:57 tomorrow will be trying to understand how to get Xecutah on the touchpad. Wiki makes it sound pretty intimidating and I don't see it in Preware like I do on my Pre-, so... there may be a learning curve :) Aug 06 08:07:13 oh, there it is... Aug 06 08:07:27 * flare576 goes to bed before he hurts himself or others Aug 06 08:08:33 thank you all again :) Keep up the amazing work, and PuffTheMagic; I'll be trying Tide very soon :) Aug 06 08:10:11 you've already done the hard part of xecutah Aug 06 08:10:23 now you just need the testing feeds and just install it Aug 06 08:15:42 yup! The first time I looked I didn't see it; I blame 1/2 consciousness. Night all :) Aug 06 08:15:59 night flare576_sleep Aug 06 08:23:14 osk keyboard seems to be working ok for me in xterm. Aug 06 08:23:35 (not on dev beta but am running 3.0.2) Aug 06 08:34:32 hmm Aug 06 08:35:18 lol Aug 06 08:39:00 hum. can't do upercase though Aug 06 09:35:48 can't get voipbuster to work with linphone Aug 06 09:36:45 any way I can configure ports? Aug 06 09:40:27 hmm... Aug 06 09:40:56 endless "waiting for service to come up" Aug 06 10:03:21 hello guys Aug 06 10:06:07 guys , will be hacked phone antenna of Touchpad 4G in your opinion ? Aug 06 11:32:29 is there any way to open ports on freetether, or are they managed by the service provider? Aug 06 14:31:55 morning Aug 06 14:52:38 Puffy_tp: wIRC stayed connected all night :) Aug 06 16:59:57 anyone with a touchpad and Internalz around? have a quick question Aug 06 17:00:38 * PatrickC wonders what happens if you change palm-build-info to 3.0.2 and reboot... Aug 06 17:21:03 impostah keeps going back to its place that *I* put it after reboot. acts like I never uninstalled it/reinstalled it when I did Aug 06 17:26:34 where could i see the source code for a touchpad app? Aug 06 17:27:15 probably github if its open source Aug 06 17:27:31 whats a good app to see Aug 06 17:27:43 what are you looking for? Aug 06 17:28:16 just to see some enyo code Aug 06 17:28:31 Spaz HD Aug 06 17:31:55 i wanna do something like the old ap mobile Aug 06 17:31:58 on the pre Aug 06 17:32:10 go to the ap rss feed, pull stories Aug 06 17:32:16 and then pull content and parse the text Aug 06 17:32:20 that'd be legal right Aug 06 17:32:25 idk Aug 06 17:32:34 probably Aug 06 17:32:44 i thought it'd be if all the parsing is done client side Aug 06 17:32:49 be just like a greasemonkey script or something Aug 06 17:33:11 so, according to BoraWare's post (http://tinyurl.com/4xvgxjf), I should install a window manager in the chroot. I discovered the default for Ubuntu right now is metacity... any known issues with touch interface? Aug 06 17:53:33 well, my Pre2 now reports as a TouchPad :) Aug 06 18:00:17 ok, my device shows me that its 3.0.2 but the servers still say its 2.1.0 Aug 06 18:02:36 is git.webos-internals.org down? Aug 06 18:03:15 it looks like all webos-internals is down.. Aug 06 18:06:04 PatrickC: not broken here Aug 06 18:06:46 could be because of my new masq... Aug 06 18:06:48 hmm.. Aug 06 18:09:31 * PatrickC wonders how to trick the servers.. hmm. Aug 06 18:10:31 how many apps are you seeing? Aug 06 18:11:34 I see all the 2.1.0 apps and below Aug 06 18:11:52 brb, wirc update! Aug 06 18:11:58 my phone already reports to everything on the phone that its 3.0.2 Aug 06 18:11:59 ok Aug 06 18:12:56 I want to masq my profile as 3.0.2 Aug 06 18:13:03 I see 420 apps... Aug 06 18:13:16 how do I check? Aug 06 18:13:24 preware doesn't have them anymore Aug 06 18:16:39 hmm.. backing up didn't change my profile.. Aug 06 18:19:41 hah, installed metacity but no desktop manager... then minimized the console window after startinf Aug 06 18:19:56 *starting metacity. Aug 06 18:29:10 OK, quick question... with 1.4.5, with BYPASS_FIRST_USE_APP, I could enable wifi, and log into my palm profile using the First Use app, but as I understand it, as of 2.1.0, the first use app is now the gesture tutorial, and I can't seem to figure out how to tie my redoctored device to my profile again... Aug 06 18:29:41 I've been trying various things, and either the Gesture Tutorial just takes me through the backswipe gesture and then ends, or it shows a black screen and I have to reset the device. Aug 06 18:29:46 Won't prompt for email/password. Aug 06 18:31:38 How does one go about logging in to a palm profile over wifi with 2.1.0? Aug 06 18:52:03 * Muhb doctors back to 1.4.5 to see if he can't locate the config file responsible for remembering the email address associated with the palm profile... Aug 06 18:52:20 if I could find that and add it to the doctor like a token, I could just log in using the backup utility Aug 06 18:52:22 probably Aug 06 18:52:42 :/ Aug 06 18:53:18 better yet, I wonder if I can back up the old first use app and create a custom ipk and use that in 2.1.0... lol Aug 06 18:53:58 should have thought of that before redoctoring, dang Aug 06 19:01:46 * PatrickC wanders in Aug 06 19:08:38 YAY!!! metacity/lxde running on my overclocked touchpad! goal accomplished, donation incoming! Aug 06 19:22:19 * Muhb sighs Aug 06 19:22:34 this should not be this difficult Aug 06 19:26:29 what? Aug 06 19:26:39 curses... no Bluetooth keyboard yet and can't seem to copy from webOS into chroot :( Aug 06 19:29:15 PatrickC, I'm trying to start over completely Aug 06 19:29:56 with the end goal of having 2.1.0 on my palm pre plus, and access to my palm profile... I haven't found a way to log in without Data access. Aug 06 19:30:01 I don't have a data plan, I need wifi. Aug 06 19:31:19 With 1.4.5, I could BYPASS_FIRST_USE_APP, enable wifi, launch First Use, and log in that way, but as of 2.1.0, it looks like the First Use app has become the Gesture Tutorial, and when I launch that, it either just goes through the tutorial, without a prompt for an email/password, or (on my most recent attempt at redoctoring/tweaking) it just gave me a blank screen and locked up the phone. Aug 06 19:31:33 :( Aug 06 19:32:30 Muhb: have you tried following the instructions for copying WiFi profiles over? Aug 06 19:32:57 ...I honestly didn't think of that. Would that even work? Aug 06 19:33:05 I have my doubts Aug 06 19:33:19 Because on first boot up, wifi is always disabled, and I have no way to enable it Aug 06 19:33:25 (unless I BYPASS_FIRST_USE) Aug 06 19:33:53 so even if I had the profiles... eh, I dunno. worth a shot if this attempt fails. Aug 06 19:35:43 I have no idea if it'll work, but it's all I can think of to help (total n00b here) Aug 06 19:36:03 right now, I just logged into my profile with 1.4.5 and deleted my backup, now I'm running a secure full erase, after which I plan on backing up the 1.4.5 Firstuse app, renaming it so it won't conflict with the Gesture tut, and then installing it on 2.1.0 to try and log into my profile that way... Aug 06 19:36:26 because I know the 1.4.5 firstuse app works... I just don't know if it'll work on 2.1.0 Aug 06 19:36:40 if nothing else at least it'll let me punch in my email address and will hopefully store that somewhere Aug 06 19:37:03 and then I may be able to log in from the Backup app by tapping the app menu -> accounts & preferences -> password prompt Aug 06 19:37:11 I'm trying anything I can think of Aug 06 19:38:07 if worse comes to worse, I don't really NEED a palm profile tied to this phone, I don't intend on using it to back anything up, I've been doing that manually Aug 06 19:38:19 but I think it's required for app catalog access Aug 06 19:40:28 I think that's accurate, but again... hi concentration of nub sauce here Aug 06 19:47:07 Greetings, programs Aug 06 19:47:39 anyone home? Aug 06 19:50:15 Hello? Aug 06 19:51:01 PuffTheMagic: wirc randomly disconnected me. here's the log: http://pastie.org/2331329 Aug 06 19:51:42 trsohmers: yes? Aug 06 19:52:00 Hi... I just bought a touchpad about an hour ago... first WebOS device Aug 06 19:52:11 cool! congradulations! Aug 06 19:52:22 I'm a long time Android user and hacker, and wanted to see what the WebOS scene is like Aug 06 19:52:36 its awesome! :) Aug 06 19:53:58 There doesnt seem to be much related to the Touchpad on the webos-internals site... is everything device cross compatible? Aug 06 19:54:10 So like pre hacks and stuff also works on the Touchpad? Aug 06 19:56:41 pretty much Aug 06 20:04:17 trsohmers: best advice is to grab the homebrew guide off the market; great jumping-off point! Aug 06 20:04:20 I'm a long time Android user and hacker, and wanted to see what the WebOS scene is like <-- welcome to the light side Aug 06 20:04:22 :B Aug 06 20:04:31 * Muhb hides Aug 06 20:05:52 Muhb: :) Aug 06 20:06:00 Haha Aug 06 20:06:29 When I told some people from the Android side, they were trying to convince me to stay with Android and not join the dark side Aug 06 20:06:35 trsohmers: yes, they are cross-compatible :) Aug 06 20:06:35 pfft Aug 06 20:06:41 haha Aug 06 20:06:47 Hopefully we can all agree that Apple is the evil empire. Aug 06 20:07:02 apple and google, yes Aug 06 20:07:12 lol Aug 06 20:07:22 google == android Aug 06 20:07:22 You know WebOS has built in google services? Lol Aug 06 20:07:23 :) Aug 06 20:07:24 Android is to Windows as webOS is to Mac OS: The only reason it sold better was because of greater hardware support (and hype from Google). Aug 06 20:07:48 I'm still sad at how quickly it stole the spotlight. Aug 06 20:07:55 trsohmers: yes, I know webOS (not WebOS) has built in google services Aug 06 20:07:59 * Muhb sighs Aug 06 20:08:33 Sorry guys, but I'll remain a google fanboy for a bit... got my gmail and all my other Google services Aug 06 20:08:55 building in support for google services and having a service built by google are two different things though ;) Aug 06 20:08:59 But I'll definatly be talking about webOS on my radio show this week Aug 06 20:09:42 trsohmers: I use gmail too, only because its the only real good free email client.. Aug 06 20:09:49 trsohmers: radio show, where? Aug 06 20:09:55 mutt > gmail Aug 06 20:10:04 * PatrickC googles Aug 06 20:10:28 dwc-: write a webmail/javascript variant, and I'll use it :P Aug 06 20:10:32 My first show is going to be this Tuesday on a local AM radio station Aug 06 20:10:41 also going to be setting it up to be available online Aug 06 20:11:00 cool! good luck to yah! Aug 06 20:11:03 I'm glad to see you're actually willing to try out webOS to see what it's like. I know an Android fan who's constantly asking me "why do you think webOS is better?" And I do my best to explain some of the pros, offer to show him my Pre to see how it works, but he always refuses to even try it out. Makes no sense to me. Aug 06 20:11:10 dwc-: does mutt also give you email address? Aug 06 20:11:14 hangfire: ajax terminal+ssh already done. Aug 06 20:11:30 no, mutt is an email client. Aug 06 20:11:38 dwc-: needs to be accessible in the browser, so people can use it anywhere Aug 06 20:11:40 I'm talking about full email service Aug 06 20:11:52 I'm open to everything... I'm an Apple computer user who hates their mobile products, a Microsoft software user who hates Windows, and an Android user that is open to everything. Aug 06 20:11:53 hangfire: they do have an ajax terminal for the browser! Aug 06 20:11:56 command-line in the browser is next step :) Aug 06 20:12:25 haven't you seen the linux kernel booting in an emu in js :) Aug 06 20:12:31 yep Aug 06 20:12:40 didn't see it do anything useful though >_> Aug 06 20:13:15 http://www.google.com/search?q=ajax+terminal+ssh Aug 06 20:13:16 pick one :) Aug 06 20:13:17 So, I'm guessing you guys have been able to install Busybox on rooted devices? Aug 06 20:13:32 ka6sox, cryptk|offline: I get an error when trying to go to webos-internal sites http://pastie.org/2331417 Aug 06 20:13:37 trsohmers: busybox comes preinstalled on unrooted devices Aug 06 20:13:48 meaning you have chroot... have any of you guys chroot installed any OSs? Aug 06 20:13:54 trsohmers: you don't root webos :) Aug 06 20:14:01 trsohmers: Ubuntu Aug 06 20:14:02 Seriously? Aug 06 20:14:15 http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/UbuntuChroot Aug 06 20:14:20 Are you saying webOS comes as root? Aug 06 20:14:22 I'm trying to connect to my pre+ using novacom in linux Aug 06 20:14:25 you can only "gain root access" you don't have to flash any roms Aug 06 20:14:30 + it's not being detected :-/ Aug 06 20:14:37 hangfire: in dev mode? Aug 06 20:14:49 "upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart" Aug 06 20:14:53 haha Aug 06 20:14:53 ^^ Aug 06 20:15:01 type that on the main screen Aug 06 20:15:03 Yesh, does that need to be typed on the keyboard? Aug 06 20:15:14 yep Aug 06 20:15:15 I'm stuck behind the 'first-run' wizard Aug 06 20:15:16 "need to" no, but does it work, it did in the store Aug 06 20:15:16 ding Dev Mode :-) Aug 06 20:15:30 hangfire: what os? 1.4.5/2.x? Aug 06 20:15:43 gsm *#DEVMODE# is it, twice? Aug 06 20:15:44 the phone is unlocked, but no data, so I need to re-run doctor Aug 06 20:15:52 I just finished getting ubuntu/metacity/lode Aug 06 20:15:56 flip the first # and * Aug 06 20:15:59 Would you guys suggest it would be worth pairing a webOS phone with the touchpad? Aug 06 20:15:59 then go into recovery mode Aug 06 20:16:06 trsohmers: yes Aug 06 20:16:12 Newegg has a pixi for $50 off contract Aug 06 20:16:14 Verizon pixi Aug 06 20:16:14 who wants to help figure out a puzzle Aug 06 20:16:16 PatrickC: VolDown + reboot ? Aug 06 20:16:24 PuffTheMagic: mee!! Aug 06 20:16:32 hangfire: vol up Aug 06 20:16:35 I've got a puzzle! why does my wirc crash lik enobody else's except maybe patrick's! Aug 06 20:16:35 how does that not surprise me Aug 06 20:16:39 PatrickC: >_< Aug 06 20:16:41 s/lode/lxde installed Aug 06 20:16:50 dwc-: it did crash Aug 06 20:16:55 I pasted the log earlier Aug 06 20:17:09 yea, I'm pretty sure every time people get that lib out of date? error the plugin has crashed Aug 06 20:17:11 PuffTheMagic: wirc randomly disconnected me. here's the log: http://pastie.org/2331329 Aug 06 20:17:27 yaya i saw that, cept you pasted it in the wrong chan Aug 06 20:17:40 and that message does not even suggest it disconnected you Aug 06 20:18:10 it could also be that my pre2 reports as a touchpad Aug 06 20:18:32 ya i dont worry about anything you report you have fucked with your device so much Aug 06 20:18:33 PuffTheMagic: it did disconnect me, and I had to kill wirc with jstop before it would connect again Aug 06 20:18:46 lol Aug 06 20:19:09 I usually don't speak up unless someone (usually dwc-) says they've experienced it too Aug 06 20:19:31 not the same issues Aug 06 20:19:43 really? Aug 06 20:19:54 I thought the plugin crashed for both of us? Aug 06 20:20:22 could be similar issues, but we have no useful debug info to say for sure one way or another Aug 06 20:20:23 that is a symtom of a problem, not the actual problem Aug 06 20:21:15 PatrickC: if you want to verify whether your wirc plugin IS crashing, after you get that message, from the terminal, pgrep wirc Aug 06 20:21:16 I'm reverting my pre back to 2.1.. things don't like it when it thinks its 3.1.0 Aug 06 20:21:32 dwc-: I'll remember that Aug 06 20:21:39 if there is a number corresponding to a process there, then that plugin is still alive Aug 06 20:21:42 PuffTheMagic: what puzzle are we solving? Aug 06 20:22:02 you can also look at /var/log/messages for minicore attaching to the crashing wirc Aug 06 20:22:31 i have a vertical slider in Tide, but i cant figure out how to match the slider position to document position Aug 06 20:22:44 howdy Aug 06 20:22:48 you can also enable crashdumps and get 0-byte files every time wirc crashes, and you can have webos fill up your /media/internal with all the other webos processes crashing Aug 06 20:23:46 PuffTheMagic: no clue.. Aug 06 20:23:46 i dont want crashdumps from him Aug 06 20:23:51 brb reboot Aug 06 20:23:58 PuffTheMagic: doesn't matter, we only get 0-byte core dumps anyways from wirc Aug 06 20:24:13 I really may get a pixi for $50 and have it pair up with this Aug 06 20:24:16 to make phone calls and stuf Aug 06 20:24:16 dont encourage him Aug 06 20:24:18 stuff* Aug 06 20:25:55 actually, now that I have gdb on-device, I should see if there's anything interesting in all those other palm process crash dumps Aug 06 20:26:09 root@mojo:/media/internal/corefiles# du -sh . Aug 06 20:26:09 1.0G . Aug 06 20:26:37 So I am going to try to get a chroot install of Android running on here Aug 06 20:26:52 I also have chroot images I made of Meego, Maemo, Debian, Ubuntu, and Backtrack 5 Aug 06 20:26:55 < and im back to reporting 2.1.0... :/ Aug 06 20:30:19 Is there any way to increase app window size? Aug 06 20:30:33 so an app not optimized for the Touchpad, is there any way to scale it? Aug 06 20:30:49 if the developer enables it Aug 06 20:31:24 can a crafty end-user go into the apps dir and change a property? Aug 06 20:31:46 ? Aug 06 20:32:09 dwc-: yes Aug 06 20:32:24 Please, do tell Aug 06 20:33:22 Internalz is your friend :) Aug 06 20:34:07 who needs internalz when you have a terminal Aug 06 20:34:12 true Aug 06 20:34:28 maybe you can just tell him what the property is Aug 06 20:34:31 but internalz can be used for on-the-go Aug 06 20:34:38 dwc-: or you could :) Aug 06 20:34:50 that folder can be greatly misused.. Aug 06 20:35:01 I can't. I don't actually know what it is. Aug 06 20:35:15 * dwc- points at the 0 apps he's developed Aug 06 20:35:24 ah Aug 06 20:35:27 I'd rather use internalz Aug 06 20:35:32 its in the /media partition :) Aug 06 20:35:37 Abyssul-TP knows where it is Aug 06 20:36:05 im doing three things at once, so Im not looking it up right this second Aug 06 20:36:12 I thought it was shown in an article before Aug 06 20:36:14 hwo Aug 06 20:36:32 oops lol damn keyboard Aug 06 20:36:44 Abyssul-TP: don't think so.. people can use that folder for bad stuff.. why would they publicize it? Aug 06 20:37:43 you could change a single property to change the ui revision attribute to allow Mojo to expand to TP resolution scale Aug 06 20:37:48 its somewhere in /media/cryptofs Aug 06 20:37:52 very cool... so you just need the Palm SDK to gain terminal access? Aug 06 20:38:03 trsohmers: yes I believe so Aug 06 20:38:08 well, novacom drivers Aug 06 20:38:17 so depends on the host os Aug 06 20:38:25 I thought it was in the appinfo.json for each app Aug 06 20:38:33 Abyssul-TP: it is Aug 06 20:38:50 but to get there you need to go thru the folders of /media/cryptofs Aug 06 20:39:26 yea Aug 06 20:40:21 Abyssul-TP: any progress on our facebook patch? Aug 06 20:41:03 no. been busy with tp and work Aug 06 20:41:33 so I take it that HP/alm isn' against the development community? Aug 06 20:41:48 nope Aug 06 20:41:52 they are totally for us Aug 06 20:42:07 they gave wOSI (webOS Internals) a $10,000 server last year Aug 06 20:42:32 yep why would you think that trsohmers Aug 06 20:43:02 Because all the companies that use Android (Motorola, HTC, Samsung, LG, etc) all are neutral to anti hacking Aug 06 20:43:23 trsohmers: depends what you mean by hacking -- HTC are opening up Aug 06 20:44:19 Motorola locks their devices down all the way... HTC says that they are going to allow people to unlock the bootloaders with an application (who knows if they are really going to do it)... Samsung has unlocked bootloaders, for now... and LG screws the recovery systems and makes overall shitty devices Aug 06 20:44:23 hacking means to take advantage of security vulnerabilities for your own gain Aug 06 20:44:47 hacking something that is open isn't hacking, its just coding Aug 06 20:45:19 oh no, the mass media definition of hacking :P Aug 06 20:45:24 lol Aug 06 20:45:45 My definition of hacking electronics is doing something that was not originally intended by the manufacturer Aug 06 20:46:27 patrickc, adding uirevision attribute to the appinfo.json to 2 will make it full screen Aug 06 20:46:46 And my favorite "hacks" are MIT hacks... Sadly, there has only been one or two good hacks since I've been here Aug 06 20:47:17 THere's been some funny ones... but only a couple huge/complex ones Aug 06 20:48:36 Abyssul-TP: yes Aug 06 20:54:38 So my network wasn't working on 3g, so I couldn't get through the first-run wizard. I can't find CarrierNetworkSettings.db3 in the webos image -- was it replaced by carrierdb.json ? Aug 06 20:54:43 * 2.1.0 Aug 06 21:08:55 hrm, I'm running one of the meta scripts to see if that will accomplish something Aug 06 21:08:58 :-/ Aug 06 21:09:23 welp, I think I have Qt 4.7 built Aug 06 21:43:25 Hey people, whats the best way to update a palm pre to 2.0 via a mac?

I need to do this a few times to get all contacts off my old phone Aug 06 21:59:36 my pre automatically imported them Aug 06 22:00:32 and they seem to stick around when I don't have the sim card in there, but you shoudl double check before deleting them from the sim Aug 06 22:00:40 that they still work afterwards Aug 06 22:00:47 hmm Aug 06 22:01:25 How should I test that? Aug 06 22:09:12 hmmm, darron black's qt isnt in my preware any more? :( Aug 06 22:09:13 I THINK IT'S WORKING :D Aug 06 22:09:18 my franken-firstuse is working Aug 06 22:09:19 muhuhahaha Aug 06 22:09:30 its aliiiiive Aug 06 22:09:50 Muhb: congrats :) Aug 06 22:10:03 not out of the woods yet Aug 06 22:10:26 yarr, its not in my feeds wtf. Aug 06 22:10:36 * rrix finds it on git Aug 06 22:12:55 I'm really tempted to let fly a stream of explicitives. Aug 06 22:13:08 "We were unable to sign you in. Contact Palm for help resolving this problem." Aug 06 22:13:21 sad trombone Aug 06 22:13:24 JUST PRIOR to this failure, it said that my account was active on another phone. Aug 06 22:13:29 so... it kinda worked Aug 06 22:13:30 but Aug 06 22:13:32 not Aug 06 22:13:34 :( Aug 06 22:15:41 sad day.

Aug 07 00:37:21 dwx-: : thanks Aug 07 00:37:47 I've been on all day w/ zero dc Aug 07 00:38:03 wIRC on TP Aug 07 00:38:03 I got a phone call while I was out and my plugin crashed again :( Aug 07 00:38:19 * dwc- notes edge, not 3g for data Aug 07 00:38:42 webos is pretty cool Aug 07 00:39:05 this is my first webos device, just enabled developer mode Aug 07 00:39:16 At this point, I might just call Palm and tell them I would like the email tied to my palm profile freed up Aug 07 00:39:21 so I can recreate it Aug 07 00:39:22 drobbins: understatement of the year :) Aug 07 00:39:34 what device are you working on, drobbins? Aug 07 00:39:39 looking forward to playing with it and maybe even getting active in the homebrew community Aug 07 00:39:47 Muhb: just grabbed a touchpad 32GB Aug 07 00:39:51 nice Aug 07 00:40:14 I'm getting really sick of Apple stuff, esp. after MacOS Lion Aug 07 00:40:22 It's an amazing community :) Aug 07 00:40:23 not really happy with that Aug 07 00:40:28 cool Aug 07 00:40:31 community is key. Aug 07 00:40:47 a coworker always raved about WebOS and how awesome it was Aug 07 00:40:56 I'm actually on irc via my 32GB TP :) Aug 07 00:41:01 nice Aug 07 00:41:10 so I am in the first steps of unlocking this thing Aug 07 00:41:20 ...................................................... Aug 07 00:41:25 just bumped into developer mode Aug 07 00:41:27 HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THIS Aug 07 00:41:28 oversight of the MONTH Aug 07 00:41:32 that's actually the last step too :P Aug 07 00:41:33 I'm so stupid Aug 07 00:41:38 best place to start is the homebrew guide in the app store and the wiki Aug 07 00:41:49 palm.com/profile has a REMOVE THIS DEVICE FROM MY ACCOUNT option Aug 07 00:41:51 :| Aug 07 00:41:54 oh no Muhb.... Aug 07 00:42:01 maybe now it'll work Aug 07 00:42:01 lol Aug 07 00:42:14 * Muhb SIGHS Aug 07 00:42:16 here goes nothin Aug 07 00:42:17 * flare576 crosses his fingers Aug 07 00:42:18 just doctored my frankenpre2 for sprint and cant login to my profile, some romtoken error any ideas? Aug 07 00:42:54 dawm|laptop: did you update castle.xml per the instructions at http://forums.precentral.net/webos-tips-information-resources/259077-pre-plus-sprint-step-step-conversion-guide.html ? Aug 07 00:43:13 no that wasnt in the wiki guide Aug 07 00:43:49 i ran the frankenpre for sprint script Aug 07 00:43:52 wait, are you swapping a comms board or upgrading to an unsupported webos version? Aug 07 00:44:00 maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're doing exactly Aug 07 00:44:01 board swap Aug 07 00:44:04 ah Aug 07 00:44:10 sprint pre- board to pre2 Aug 07 00:44:14 k Aug 07 00:44:31 i rebuilt the doctor gonna try that again just incase i may have goofed Aug 07 00:44:52 sounds good Aug 07 00:44:52 hmm, I've been "away" this whole time... oops. Aug 07 00:45:08 if that fails, try updating castle.xml with the values from the pre- comms board Aug 07 00:45:38 so you mean take it back apart and put the pre- back together.. fun Aug 07 00:45:43 hmmm, sdlterminal doesn't work at all on the touchpad Aug 07 00:45:49 I'm already in love with this thing though Aug 07 00:46:31 I don't think that's required Aug 07 00:47:14 rrix: do you have a bt keyboard" Aug 07 00:47:25 flare576: tell me about your irc setup Aug 07 00:48:13 flare576: nope Aug 07 00:48:14 drobbins: once you've got preware installed, search for wIRE and install it like any app :) Aug 07 00:48:20 ok Aug 07 00:48:32 *wIRC Aug 07 00:48:35 flare576: I assume you are using a keyboard Aug 07 00:49:14 rrix: ok, was gonna suggest xecutah+xterm, but w/o a keyboard it's tricky right now... Aug 07 00:49:20 flare576: indeed Aug 07 00:49:24 drobbins: nope, not yet Aug 07 00:49:31 ah Aug 07 00:49:40 saw the hp keyboard at the store, but held off on it Aug 07 00:49:44 I guess any bt keyboard will do? Aug 07 00:49:45 should be here Wednesday lol Aug 07 00:49:45 Quick question... can you use almost any bluetooth keyboard with a webOS device? Aug 07 00:49:51 heh Aug 07 00:49:59 Because I've used my Motorola Xoom's bluetooth keyboard with a mac before... Aug 07 00:50:05 conversation converging on "bt keyboard" Aug 07 00:50:08 I guess I could try to make ajaxterm work Aug 07 00:50:10 yeah, but the HP one has some special keys for webOS Aug 07 00:50:24 But would just the regular keys work and all? Aug 07 00:51:08 trsohmers: everything I've read said any bt keyboard should do with few exceptions, mostly older devices Aug 07 00:51:52 brb, bathing baby time! Aug 07 00:51:53 Muhb: use rsync for a daily backup - don't trust Palm backups Aug 07 00:52:11 Really liking the Touchpad so far... just limited on apps, but I havent rooted and installed preware yet. Aug 07 00:52:29 theres no rooting ;p Aug 07 00:52:39 drobbins: welcome Aug 07 00:52:53 trsohmers: what are you waiting for ? ;) Aug 07 00:53:13 rwhitby: Not at a computer where I can install the sdk Aug 07 00:53:14 dawm|laptop: get the Pre fixed? Aug 07 00:53:24 working on it, trying the doctor once more Aug 07 00:53:26 rwhitby: Oh, I don't trust palm... before redoctoring I made sure to download ipks for all my patches and apps, haha... Aug 07 00:53:38 phone works, and data, but no txt or profile access Aug 07 00:53:39 but I would like to at least be able to sign into my profile in order to get app catalog access Aug 07 00:53:50 You shouldn't trust palm... they are no longer in business :P Aug 07 00:53:52 rwhitby: thanks Aug 07 00:53:53 it wouldn't be an issue if HP hadn't removed the feeds preware depended on :( Aug 07 00:53:54 drobbins: PuffTheMagic is our Gentoo evangelist here, if you want any info on building stuff on Gentoo. Aug 07 00:54:04 but... as it is... I can't think of any other route. Aug 07 00:54:10 rwhitby: ok cool Aug 07 00:54:30 So have most of you guys been here since the Pre was released? Aug 07 00:54:50 I waited until the price dropped for the pre Aug 07 00:55:05 i got it on a price mistake Aug 07 00:55:06 then pre plus came out and I waited a bit longer Aug 07 00:55:10 finally got it last year Aug 07 00:55:17 few months after it came out Aug 07 00:55:19 drobbins: we mainly use Ubuntu for our official build support, just for ease of user support (focus on one distro and all that) Aug 07 00:55:43 rwhitby: I forgive you Aug 07 00:55:56 drobbins: and I won't hold it against you ;) Aug 07 00:56:10 thanks Aug 07 00:56:12 :P Aug 07 00:56:27 slackware > ubuntu :D Aug 07 00:56:29 * Muhb runs and hides Aug 07 00:56:35 PatrickC: looks like it worked, Sprint is back in the corner, was able to login to profile, its gathering my data now Aug 07 00:56:45 congrats! Aug 07 00:57:13 * rwhitby only uses the command-line GUI-less subset of Linux distros through an SSH terminal session to a VM anyway, so says "meh" to OS debates ;) Aug 07 00:57:48 except its stuck with a spinner after saying 'Setup Complete' Aug 07 00:58:10 dawm|laptop: that's normal for an activation bypass, if that's what you did, Aug 07 00:58:13 So I am probably going to be returning this 32gb touchpad next week... only reason I got this one was because Staples was completely sold out (Entire warehouse was out) because of the new $200 off Aug 07 00:58:26 didnt bypass Aug 07 00:58:39 and I'll try to trade it in and get $100 back, and then get the 16gb Aug 07 00:58:39 i think it crashed Aug 07 00:58:42 yep crashed Aug 07 00:58:53 rwhitby: I only use ssh too Aug 07 00:59:24 drobbins: let me know if you want to contribute a Gentoo chroot minimal image to Xecutah - I'd have no problem with adding that. Aug 07 00:59:40 rwhitby: ok Aug 07 00:59:48 rwhitby: what is Xecutah? :) Aug 07 01:00:14 rwhitby: so I can run gentoo on my touchpad? Aug 07 01:00:16 drobbins: front-end to running a chroot as root and rendering on X server in a card Aug 07 01:00:26 drobbins: easily. Aug 07 01:00:30 cool Aug 07 01:00:35 will need to play with that. Aug 07 01:00:43 ~testing-feeds Aug 07 01:00:43 it has been said that testing-feeds is a means of testing new WebOS Internals products, documented at http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Testing_Feeds Aug 07 01:00:47 Wait, so you guys got X running ontop of the webOS launcher? Aug 07 01:00:47 http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/2/2b/Spr_4h_103.png <-- "Xecutah!" Aug 07 01:00:59 yeah Aug 07 01:01:06 long time ago, haha Aug 07 01:01:11 drobbins: get the testing feeds set up in your Preware Aug 07 01:01:26 ...I've been trying to do the same thing on Android for 4 months Aug 07 01:01:31 drobbins: you'll likely want to resize your USB partition to make room for an ext3fs partition to do this stuff in. Aug 07 01:01:34 barley any progress Aug 07 01:01:39 http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/webos-port-of-xorg-in-the-works-openoffice-support-the-inevitab/ <-- trsohmers Aug 07 01:01:46 rwhitby: glad I got the 32GB one then. Aug 07 01:01:50 http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/UbuntuChroot Aug 07 01:01:53 or you use USB for it? Aug 07 01:01:56 I set aside 8GB myself Aug 07 01:02:31 you can do a file loopfs if you like, but it make USB mode stop working. The separate LVM partition is the best way (IMHO) Aug 07 01:02:41 ok Aug 07 01:03:01 the webOS doctor even treats the additional LVM volume with respect and doesn't blow it away Aug 07 01:03:26 neat Aug 07 01:04:10 drobbins: the resize can be done without doctoring if you know what you're doing Aug 07 01:04:21 rwhitby: Xecutah automates the entire chroot process? Aug 07 01:04:46 trsohmers: we have a package which you install in the ext3fs partition from Preware, and then Xecutah does the chroot and drops you in an xterm Aug 07 01:05:09 you add packages in the chroot and set up your X environment as you choose from there Aug 07 01:05:42 maybe I can get some funtoo stuff happening on webos Aug 07 01:05:43 OK... I currently have chroot images for Android, Meego, Maemo, and a non working iOS image. Aug 07 01:06:45 I sincerely hope this is the last time I ever have to run webosdoctor on this device. :( Aug 07 01:07:02 at this rate I'm liable to wear out the chip, I JUST KNOW IT ;-; Aug 07 01:07:05 Is there anyway you can just put the .img of the rootfs of the OS and have Xecutah run it from there? Get rid of needing to partition your device. Aug 07 01:07:11 hmm, how can I get the touchpad's keyboard to appear when it doesnt think it should? Aug 07 01:07:41 trsohmers: you can loopfs mount it Aug 07 01:07:42 trsohmers: loop device Aug 07 01:07:56 ok Aug 07 01:08:01 so I have webos quick install running Aug 07 01:08:04 trsohmers: but if you loopfs mount something from /media/internal (the only place big enough) you break USB mode Aug 07 01:08:27 really? Aug 07 01:08:31 Oh fun Aug 07 01:08:45 I believe I've mounted stuff from /media/internal before... Aug 07 01:08:45 this was a while ago though Aug 07 01:08:58 Do any webOS devices have micro sdcards? Aug 07 01:09:14 I don't believe so. :( Aug 07 01:09:22 major downside. Aug 07 01:09:53 16gb isn't enough for you? :P Aug 07 01:09:54 then again, I've only had experience with the pre-, pre+, and veer, dunno about the pre2 or the tablet Aug 07 01:10:05 NO. >:( Aug 07 01:10:06 :p Aug 07 01:10:11 lol Aug 07 01:10:19 hmmm ajaxterm would work if I could get the keyboard to appear :| Aug 07 01:10:22 Muhb: USB mode actually umounts /media/internal - if you have a loopfs mounted from it that breaks Aug 07 01:10:51 ohhhhhhhhhh Aug 07 01:10:55 you mean while it's plugged in Aug 07 01:10:57 gotcha Aug 07 01:11:05 yep Aug 07 01:11:09 sorry, I'm slow today Aug 07 01:11:15 frustrated with this stupid meta doctor Aug 07 01:11:17 lol Aug 07 01:11:20 some people don't care about that so just use a loopfs Aug 07 01:11:45 ka6sox and I are working on a partition resize/create app. Aug 07 01:11:54 awesome. Aug 07 01:11:54 that would be useful Aug 07 01:12:15 ................I just had a horrible thought. Aug 07 01:12:26 ...? Aug 07 01:12:49 it would SUCK if the only reason I'm having problems with this stupid palm profile sign in process, is because I'm using cygwin to doctor these webos images together... Aug 07 01:12:51 :X Aug 07 01:13:11 I completely forgot about that. Aug 07 01:13:17 I can still access my /media/internal while in usb mode Aug 07 01:13:23 I messed up my fs that way once Aug 07 01:13:29 haha, fun Aug 07 01:17:47 drobbins, i have gentoo on my TP ;) Aug 07 01:20:15 PuffTheMagic: cool Aug 07 01:20:20 PuffTheMagic: do you chroot into it? Aug 07 01:20:52 PuffTheMagic: got a native compiler or a cross-compiler? Aug 07 01:21:47 * rwhitby bbl Aug 07 01:22:01 i crosscompile starting with an arm stage7 then rysnc it over Aug 07 01:22:13 that was my workflow for my pre/pixi Aug 07 01:22:19 ah neat. Aug 07 01:22:21 i might consider getting a native compiler on the TP though Aug 07 01:23:02 its probably fast enough to keep a system up to date, i dont think i would start from a fresh stage3 though Aug 07 01:24:31 yeah Aug 07 01:24:43 Govnah 1.0.0! Aug 07 01:24:47 so do you drop to a console mode to run gentoo? Aug 07 01:24:55 does webos get disabled? Aug 07 01:25:04 or can you keep it running? Aug 07 01:25:08 I use an xterm Aug 07 01:25:26 you can use it many ways Aug 07 01:25:55 neat. Aug 07 01:25:56 Xecutah! will allow you to run x11 apps in a card Aug 07 01:26:04 so you dont have to leave webos/luna Aug 07 01:26:11 that's really cool Aug 07 01:26:17 or you can just kill luna and run what ever you want Aug 07 01:26:33 I mainly use console Aug 07 01:26:39 or ssh Aug 07 01:26:57 thats typically what I do also Aug 07 01:27:11 drobbins, you gonna start maintaining a funtoo arm stage3? Aug 07 01:27:28 PuffTheMagic: maybe, if you wanna help me out a bit Aug 07 01:27:39 PuffTheMagic: I could integrate support for it into metro maybe Aug 07 01:28:30 that would make it easier to create updated builds Aug 07 01:29:03 ya I will have to checkout metro, i have to say, i havent been too hardcore in the gentoo/funtoo stuff as I used to be a few years ago... too many webos projects to work on Aug 07 01:29:17 anyone know what the user agent of the webos 2.1.0 app store is? Aug 07 01:29:29 * Muhb can't use wireshark to capture it at the moment, unfortunately Aug 07 01:29:48 user agent? Aug 07 01:29:49 or any app store, for that matter Aug 07 01:29:51 yeah Aug 07 01:29:55 I assume it has one Aug 07 01:30:09 * PatrickC has never heard that term before.. Aug 07 01:30:15 it probably has one though Aug 07 01:30:19 I just don't know it Aug 07 01:31:07 it's a string that identifies itself by browser, engine, OS, and version Aug 07 01:31:25 wow, the webos update is taking a long time Aug 07 01:31:41 the one from HP? Aug 07 01:31:50 hopefully its not our servers.... Aug 07 01:32:00 http://whatsmyuseragent.com/ Aug 07 01:32:56 hmm... quick question... will tapping "emergency call" get me access to the phone app, or will it immediately dial 911? :X Aug 07 01:33:08 * Muhb is afraid to touch it Aug 07 01:33:08 try and find out :D Aug 07 01:33:14 bad idea... lol... Aug 07 01:34:37 Considering not too long ago I saw a patch in Preware for the 1.4.5 version of the Phone app that "disabled automatic dialing of emergency numbers, requires user to push the talk button to dial" (or something along those lines) it's probably safe to assume it'll just dial right away... Aug 07 01:34:41 sigh Aug 07 01:34:43 oh well Aug 07 01:35:42 Muhb: need the dialer at the activation screen? Aug 07 01:35:50 yeah Aug 07 01:35:54 hit "Opt + ##" Aug 07 01:36:00 on the physical kb Aug 07 01:36:27 not doing anything Aug 07 01:36:31 or Opt + #* on GSM devices Aug 07 01:36:35 hold Opt* Aug 07 01:37:10 yeah the gsm device did it Aug 07 01:37:12 :D Aug 07 01:37:18 Nice, I NEVER KNEW about that Aug 07 01:37:19 Option and ## (BB) on CDMA or Option and #* (BZ) Aug 07 01:37:21 :) Aug 07 01:37:23 dang this would have come in handy Aug 07 01:37:30 2.1? Aug 07 01:37:52 yup! Aug 07 01:38:03 type #*3386633# Aug 07 01:38:11 to bypass activation Aug 07 01:38:20 and enable dev mode Aug 07 01:38:36 is that #*DEVMODE#? Aug 07 01:38:40 yep Aug 07 01:38:42 I just typed that in to see if it was enabled Aug 07 01:38:46 it is Aug 07 01:38:56 hmm Aug 07 01:38:59 ok, what did you need the dialer for? Aug 07 01:39:04 to bypass activation? Aug 07 01:39:11 to bypass palm profile creation Aug 07 01:39:14 so I can enable wifi Aug 07 01:39:19 so I can try creating a profile again Aug 07 01:39:21 lol Aug 07 01:39:22 it's a mess Aug 07 01:39:31 too much dependence on people having data plans :( Aug 07 01:39:32 best way is to make a meta doctor that allows that Aug 07 01:39:51 I was tired of meta-doctoring so I went with a stock meta-att-preplus-2.1.0 install Aug 07 01:40:39 I've tried meta-doctoring doctors that will bypass activation and let me enable wifi, but then when I run the Gesture Tutorial (aka Firstuse) it won't give me the screen for entering my email. Aug 07 01:40:52 :( Aug 07 01:40:56 or it locks up the device. Aug 07 01:41:03 was airplane mode enabled? Aug 07 01:41:04 one or the other, depending on how annoying it feels like being. Aug 07 01:41:18 during the gesture tut? no Aug 07 01:41:26 airplane mode has to be *disabled* For it to work Aug 07 01:41:28 odd Aug 07 01:41:39 ok, well do this Aug 07 01:41:49 #*DEVMODE# Aug 07 01:41:52 and disable it, reboot Aug 07 01:42:00 but then how will I enable wifi? Aug 07 01:42:18 we'll get to that part in a second :) Aug 07 01:42:23 disabled... after it reboots, what next? Aug 07 01:42:32 re-enable it Aug 07 01:42:39 to bypass activation? Aug 07 01:42:42 yep Aug 07 01:42:47 k Aug 07 01:43:04 I have a feeling this is going to end up being a manual way of what the meta-doctor came up with, but anything's worth a shot at this point Aug 07 01:43:12 then in the meta-doctor folder you git-clone'd, there is a "bypass activation" patch Aug 07 01:43:16 Hi, is there a toggle to use Linphone not-on speaker phone? Aug 07 01:43:35 dude you have linphone? Aug 07 01:43:43 I was looking for that a while back, heh Aug 07 01:43:54 rwhitby handles that iirc Aug 07 01:44:37 re-enabling dev-mode... restart? Aug 07 01:44:51 yep Aug 07 01:45:06 and lemme get the path to the patch Aug 07 01:45:14 but Aug 07 01:45:22 but what? Aug 07 01:45:38 isn't the patch automatically applied with BYPASS_ACTIVATION = 1? Aug 07 01:45:40 in the makefile? Aug 07 01:45:45 could be Aug 07 01:45:50 you can check Aug 07 01:45:57 I've tampered with that a few times, no luck Aug 07 01:46:00 if not, I'll show you where the patch is Aug 07 01:46:00 Just read the wiki page Aug 07 01:46:02 and BYPASS_FIRST_USE_APP Aug 07 01:46:10 It needs to be brought to the front speaker Aug 07 01:46:37 those should have bypassed the activation scene and popped you to the main scene Aug 07 01:46:45 yup Aug 07 01:46:54 but then I couldn't bring up the screen that asks for email afterwards. Aug 07 01:47:11 it was a working, unlocked GSM device, but no app catalog access, because there's no palm profile on record. Aug 07 01:47:19 well, if it doesn't work. use the file from meta-doctor/patches/webos-2.1.0 Aug 07 01:47:29 it just brought me to the main scene Aug 07 01:47:40 Anyone else here with a touchpad? Aug 07 01:47:46 * Muhb enables wifi Aug 07 01:48:05 Muhb: now, leave the cell radio enabled Aug 07 01:48:07 trsohmers: yup Aug 07 01:48:09 I'm curious... there is this little popout tray thing on the bottom side of the touchpad.. on the back of it it has the serial number and some other things Aug 07 01:48:18 Any idea what the purpose of it is? Aug 07 01:48:28 or is it just for the serial number.. Aug 07 01:48:41 trsohmers: hold serial # for doctor version discovery. Aug 07 01:49:09 so is the webOS doctor everyone is talking about just a recovery program? Aug 07 01:49:15 re installs the OS? Aug 07 01:49:31 version-specific recovery tool Aug 07 01:49:46 OK... and are there any bootloader tools available? Aug 07 01:50:02 PatrickC: wifi and phone radio are both up and running Aug 07 01:50:10 though it says I'm roaming, which is weird, it didn't say that a few hours ago Aug 07 01:50:16 it would be my luck if a tower lost power somewhere Aug 07 01:50:18 :P Aug 07 01:50:37 trsohmers: out of my area of expertise... Aug 07 01:50:45 ........whoaaaaaaa Aug 07 01:50:46 what Aug 07 01:50:47 ok, lol Aug 07 01:50:47 Muhb: brb. just try and see :) Aug 07 01:50:50 I have more apps than I should Aug 07 01:50:55 thanks Aug 07 01:51:06 I have WAY more apps than I should Aug 07 01:51:22 flare576: how long does it take you to charge your touchpad? Aug 07 01:51:24 on average Aug 07 01:51:49 PatrickC: no luck, gesture tutorial just goes through the tutorial... no email request or chance to log into a palm profile. :( Aug 07 01:52:12 trsohmers: only charged it once so far, 2hrs? maybe 3 Aug 07 01:52:39 Hmm... its at 88%, and I have had it on the charger for 5 1/2 hours Aug 07 01:52:54 though I have been using it during that time Aug 07 01:52:56 touchpad is ~40% slower than straight wall charger. Aug 07 01:53:04 Muhb: use the file from meta-doctor/patches/webos-2.1.0 that /should/ work Aug 07 01:53:13 what do you mean by that, flare? Aug 07 01:53:26 trsohmers: do you have govnah yet? Aug 07 01:53:57 PatrickC: what should it do? the phone is already activated and working, I just need to tie it with my profile Aug 07 01:54:08 flare576: do you charge your phone with a touchpad? how do you do that? touch to charge? :) Aug 07 01:54:23 that should allow you to bypass needing data for a profile Aug 07 01:54:48 ...you NEED data for a profile? Aug 07 01:54:50 flare576: Haven't hacked this yet Aug 07 01:54:50 * Muhb facepalms Aug 07 01:54:53 or anything Aug 07 01:54:58 is THAT why having WiFi alone hasn't been working? Aug 07 01:55:01 sorry, mistyped: touchSTONE is 40% slower. Aug 07 01:55:02 Havent been at a computer to install the SDK yet Aug 07 01:55:19 Muhb: generally you need data for a profile Aug 07 01:55:24 Ah... I didn't buy any accessories... just using the wall charger Aug 07 01:55:24 but that patch changes that Aug 07 01:55:47 well that explains everything... Aug 07 01:55:54 trsohmers: once you do you can see the amp draw, then see how fast the charge is happening. Aug 07 01:56:04 that patch should fix your problem Aug 07 01:56:04 so, assuming this works, the gesture tut should detect my wifi signal and use THAT to ask for my email? Aug 07 01:56:05 OK, cool Aug 07 01:56:15 or am I running the wrong app? Aug 07 01:56:29 I noticed that com.palm.app.firstuse is now the gesture tutorial, so I assume that's what I need to be running Aug 07 01:56:32 Quick question friends: I have a FrankenPrePlus on Sprint. Any easy way to reactivate this device? Aug 07 01:56:44 Muhb: yes, that's what you need to run Aug 07 01:56:55 the only thing I'm not sure of is if you can still make calls Aug 07 01:57:06 I've only ever used that on *unactivated* devices Aug 07 01:57:16 mine's activated Aug 07 01:57:17 Ok, going to go boot up my mac and hack this sucker Aug 07 01:57:29 I've used it on at&t, t-mobile, sprint... now back on t-mobile Aug 07 01:57:35 trsohmers: yay!!!! Aug 07 01:59:14 Muhb: if you want to use the patch, you can. but I don't garuntee 100% working phone after. it /should/ work like it does now (but have a profile) Aug 07 01:59:25 but I can't guarantee that Aug 07 01:59:35 amistak: assuming you updated the tokens in castle.xml per the instructions at http://forums.precentral.net/webos-tips-information-resources/259077-pre-plus-sprint-step-step-conversion-guide.html , you should be able to activate the phone yourself through sprint's website, I believe. Aug 07 02:00:03 if anything breaks I suspect it'll be my profile, rather than my ability to use the phone Aug 07 02:00:15 but we'll see Aug 07 02:00:22 as long as you understand the risks :) Aug 07 02:00:53 what risks? risks of more time wasted by redoctoring yet again? :D Aug 07 02:01:00 I did indeed. The phone worked well before. Just my main died and this is the only device I have. I'm just wondering, if upon reactivating this device with Sprint, that it will work. Aug 07 02:01:01 no biggie! I'm willing to try anything at this point, haha... Aug 07 02:01:41 Muhb: lol ok Aug 07 02:01:46 amistak: it should, the process worked well enough for me when I tried it. I just couldn't get my ESN/number updated because they wanted to charge me for a data plan that I didn't want, so I left sprint. Aug 07 02:02:03 I cannot wait for my by keyboard lol Aug 07 02:02:13 ah excellent. well I will try it now then ty Aug 07 02:02:35 what's a by keyboard? Aug 07 02:02:47 bluetooth keyboard Aug 07 02:03:08 oy.. this is very different from any android stuff Aug 07 02:03:12 friggen auto correct Aug 07 02:03:13 oh Aug 07 02:03:37 erm... PatrickC, easy way to apply patches without having GNU patch installed on the device? :X Aug 07 02:03:52 use webos quick install Aug 07 02:03:56 trsohmers: VERY different, yes Aug 07 02:04:32 trsohmers: are you stuck, or just commenting? Aug 07 02:04:32 wosqi works with patch files? Aug 07 02:04:38 I did NOT know that... nice Aug 07 02:04:38 Just commenting Aug 07 02:04:40 yep Aug 07 02:04:53 downloading the SDK now.. see you guys on the other side Aug 07 02:04:55 Muhb: afaik, yup Aug 07 02:05:06 :-) Aug 07 02:12:42 kk... so far so good... preware installed, gnu patch installed, lsdiff installed, bypass-activation.patch installed... Aug 07 02:13:28 Muhb, how long have you been at this? Aug 07 02:13:50 off and on all day Aug 07 02:14:08 if I had devoted as much attention to it earlier today as I am now, when I was less tired, I probably could have been done a lot sooner Aug 07 02:14:49 SUCCESS Aug 07 02:14:55 I THINK Aug 07 02:14:55 MAYBE Aug 07 02:14:59 * Muhb shouldn't speak so soon Aug 07 02:15:34 lol, you think you'd learn ;-) Aug 07 02:15:51 Signing in... Aug 07 02:15:57 wait for it Aug 07 02:16:06 * Muhb knows it'll fail Aug 07 02:16:26 ...well Aug 07 02:16:40 that was weird Aug 07 02:16:57 hiall~ Aug 07 02:17:01 "Data not restored. We were unable to restore your data." <-- no kidding, considering I DELETED all of it Aug 07 02:17:04 I'm not sure if that's a success or a failure. Aug 07 02:17:08 now it's just messing with me Aug 07 02:17:50 Muhb: sorry, idk about that one Aug 07 02:17:57 I don't either Aug 07 02:17:58 lol Aug 07 02:18:03 I hit the "try again" button at the bottom Aug 07 02:18:10 and now it says "You've already used this palm profile on another device" Aug 07 02:18:12 so I GUESS it worked Aug 07 02:18:14 but I don't know Aug 07 02:18:16 lol Aug 07 02:18:23 I'm dumbfounded at this point, this is craziness Aug 07 02:19:42 well, try your end-game: check app store!

I don't think I would have thought to try that patch, I figured it did the same thing that metadoctor did, which wasn't working at all. Aug 07 02:26:10 no problem Aug 07 02:26:12 turns out post-install tweaking worked better than pre-install doctoring. Aug 07 02:27:58 ugh Aug 07 02:28:13 what?
