**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Nov 20 02:59:58 2011 Nov 20 05:03:25 currently in search for a download from browser patch for 3.04 the doesn't conflict with current existing patches. preferably works on sites like bandcamp Nov 20 05:25:02 some people's requests don't even make much sense Nov 20 05:27:25 nope Nov 20 06:34:37 * rwhitby returns from 3 days camping Nov 20 06:35:37 Nice Nov 20 06:35:44 I havent been camping for years now Nov 20 06:38:30 this camp was as a leader among about 100 or so other leaders looking after 1000 cub scouts. Nov 20 06:42:49 a 1000 kids.... Nov 20 06:46:52 yep Nov 20 06:48:19 I've been around 400-500 high schoolers and I didnt like that too much Nov 20 06:49:27 oy....and I thought it was bad keeping track of 20 Cub Scouts! Nov 20 06:59:28 ka6sox: well, I personally only had to keep track of a peak of 42, and normally 15. Nov 20 07:12:59 "had" meaning you are done? Nov 20 07:13:04 and successfully? Nov 20 07:33:36 ype Nov 20 10:01:15 folks Nov 20 14:16:21 .window 2 Nov 20 15:55:32 'ello! Nov 20 17:32:01 need some hopefully quick help troubleshooting browserserver constantly respawning, error status 34 Nov 20 17:32:10 started after installing sudo ipkg it seems Nov 20 17:32:25 would prefer to fix, or reinstall the package Nov 20 17:37:47 anyone? :) Nov 20 17:38:38 rwhitby Nov 20 17:44:11 how do I extract the installer image? Nov 20 17:44:17 I thought I did it right, probably didn't Nov 20 17:46:10 I'm looking for help doing something similar, I apparently broke the web browser and now it constantly respawns, status 34. would like to get just the browser package and reinstall Nov 20 17:47:01 there was a script mentioned the other day Nov 20 17:47:29 to fix my issue or work with the install image? Nov 20 17:48:04 to unpack the webos doctor Nov 20 17:49:31 that would help, do you have a link to it? Nov 20 17:49:51 nope Nov 20 18:00:25 how did you break it? Nov 20 18:02:10 not exactly sure, the last things I did were to change openssh to allow password authentication using the webos-internals wiki instructions, then created an account via adduser, and installed sudo Nov 20 18:02:15 where can I get the nova-installer uImage? Nov 20 18:02:15 seems it stopped working after that Nov 20 18:02:38 I've decompressed the doctor twice now, can't find it Nov 20 18:02:46 I've removed sudo, removed several other preware patches installed around the same time Nov 20 18:02:51 rebooted several times Nov 20 18:02:53 no luck Nov 20 18:04:03 well, the easiest way to restore everything would be to doctor your phone back to stock Nov 20 18:04:07 www.palm.com/rom Nov 20 18:04:33 it's a touchpad, I really would like to fix it vs restoring it to stock Nov 20 18:04:41 just need some help getting started Nov 20 18:05:22 siestacat, the uImage is inside the webOS.tar Nov 20 18:05:56 bfr1992t, sorry, dunno what to tell you Nov 20 18:07:31 well I assume the package is in the webos tarball. my download of the webdoctor jar just finished, is there a page showing how to extract it? Nov 20 18:07:56 dw- how do I get to the webos tar file? Nov 20 18:08:00 I can't find that either Nov 20 18:08:14 I'm using winrar Nov 20 18:08:39 I couldn't find anything saying special instructions for the jar file Nov 20 18:09:13 ok, that's what I suspected - winrar or winzip would handle it Nov 20 18:09:26 trying now will see how far I get Nov 20 18:11:52 http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Patch_webOS_Bypassing_Activation Nov 20 18:12:02 yeah, rename to zip then you can access all parts of it Nov 20 18:12:08 finally found the uImage Nov 20 18:13:08 aha, yeah that's right jar files are zip files with a specific hierarchy Nov 20 18:14:15 and there's webos.tar Nov 20 18:16:56 how can I list all of my lvm partitions? Nov 20 18:18:08 lvscan, lvs, lvdisplay Nov 20 18:19:52 jars are zips Nov 20 18:20:34 the rootfs image doesn't have the packages as ipks Nov 20 18:20:44 not sure exactly how you'd figure out what you'd broken Nov 20 18:20:45 ok that's what I was fearing Nov 20 18:21:02 well I can still list files in the packages Nov 20 18:21:03 I guess you could run through the md5sum lists maybe Nov 20 18:21:16 so I can replace them one by one from the clean image Nov 20 18:21:19 you have both of those lists on the device Nov 20 18:21:39 try md5sum -c on the stuff in ... I think it's /usr/lib/ipkg/info/ Nov 20 18:21:45 ok cool Nov 20 18:26:30 what the hell.... Nov 20 18:26:36 so, I am finally in novaterm Nov 20 18:26:45 webOS will not doctor Nov 20 18:27:06 so I figured I'd remove my touchdroid partitions Nov 20 18:27:11 problem is they don't exist... Nov 20 18:27:30 does the optional ext3fs thing with meta-doctor screw anything up? Nov 20 18:28:58 siestacat you'd probably get better help on a touchdroid issue at Topic for #touchpad is "HP Touchpad Conversation | #touchpad-root (dev work) | #touchdroid (android dev) | # Nov 20 18:29:12 Nergal : this is a webOS problem, as I can't doctor. Nov 20 18:29:15 They are useless Nov 20 18:29:28 I'm just trying to doctor as I destroyed webOS with the patch recovery tool the other day Nov 20 18:29:44 ok I see try this Nov 20 18:29:46 run the doctor from the commandline, pastebin the results Nov 20 18:29:55 post the pastebin Nov 20 18:30:54 how granular is the doctor recovery? can I have it recover just one package or are you pretty much going to reset the device to stock? Nov 20 18:31:05 and it's not so much a webos problem, since you broke it, not webos ;) Nov 20 18:31:11 uninstall novacom & let the doctor reinstall it? Nov 20 18:31:28 bfr1992t: reset to stock Nov 20 18:32:54 bfr1992t for single files I use ftp, or webosqi or jaycanuck's app I can't remember the name of but something like "file fixer" Nov 20 18:32:59 alright Nov 20 18:33:00 I'll do that Nov 20 18:33:13 how should I run it from cmd? Nov 20 18:33:22 java -jar Nov 20 18:34:15 siestacat, how far into doctor does it go before it says it can't do it? (10% 24% etc) Nov 20 18:35:59 it was 4% yesterday, it's already hit 8 today... Nov 20 18:36:13 wait Nov 20 18:36:46 attempting to remove appdirectory /tmp_mediafs/.palm Nov 20 18:37:07 finished that Nov 20 18:37:29 sweet, alright, it appears to be working Nov 20 18:37:39 wtf... Nov 20 18:37:45 I had to remove my ext3fs partition Nov 20 18:37:55 deleted it with LVM and then resized the media partition Nov 20 18:58:47 sweet, done Nov 20 18:58:50 thanks guys Nov 20 19:01:19 just wondering siestacat what finally fixed it? was it removing the ext3 Nov 20 19:05:13 yes Nov 20 19:05:17 nothing else helped at all Nov 20 19:05:44 manually removing the ext3fs then adding the unassigned space to the media partition Nov 20 19:05:51 one too many partitions or something I'm guessing Nov 20 19:05:55 doctor must be fussy Nov 20 19:15:44 wth my pre- is showing a load avg of 22 Nov 20 20:24:50 hmm. o nmy pre-, if i switch from my custom UK profile, which is 125-1ghz, ondemand, to the Palm Default, and then back to the custom, I end up with a min of 250 and a max of 600 until i reboot Nov 20 20:50:54 is BrettQ a regular on here, seems he had the same problem I have Nov 20 20:51:14 ~seen brettq Nov 20 20:51:32 that bot is never here when you want it to be Nov 20 20:51:49 hah, yeah it's been about 10 years since I've been in an IRC room, I don't remember anything Nov 20 20:52:14 I don't show brettq being here in the last month Nov 20 20:53:11 that's what nickserv says anyways Nov 20 20:53:33 thanks Nov 20 20:58:17 dwc, I don't recall if I used ipkg or ipkg-opt to install sudo, if I used the wrong one would that cause an issue. also I know I didn't remount / as rw Nov 20 20:59:28 basically ever since installing sudo the browser loads, then goes dim, reloads, and repeats Nov 20 20:59:46 log entries for browserserver respawning in syslog Nov 20 21:16:07 bfr1992t: using ipkg instead of ipkg-opt will clobber stuff in the rootfs, and cause OTA update issues. Nov 20 22:44:27 Whatsup party people Nov 21 00:27:38 I'm having trouble with OpenSSH on the Pre 3. I followed all the instructions (that worked on my Pre- and Touchpad), however, when I try to connect via WinSCP I get: "Cannot initialize SFTP protocol. Is the host running a SFTP server?". I can connect to "ssh localhost" on the Pre 3. Any ideas? Nov 21 00:29:18 did you install the sftp server module? Nov 21 00:29:35 Do I need to? Is in Preware? Nov 21 00:30:21 yes and yes. Nov 21 00:30:43 "OpenSSH FTP Server" in Optware? Nov 21 00:31:10 yes Nov 21 00:33:03 That fixed it. Nov 21 00:33:07 Thanks. Nov 21 01:51:31 hi **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Nov 21 02:59:58 2011
