**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Dec 26 02:59:56 2011 Dec 26 03:41:02 hello everyone, I just uninstalled preware on my HP touchpad to enable the beta feeds )post 3.0.4 update). When I reinstalled Preware, the "package updates" and "available updates" options are greyed out, not selectable Dec 26 03:41:10 does anyone know why this would be happening? Dec 26 03:41:30 I have restarted the touchpad a couple times now, still no love Dec 26 03:41:45 maybe you don't have updates? Dec 26 03:42:14 I'm sorry, the second greyed out option is "available packages" Dec 26 03:42:24 so I can't install anything Dec 26 03:42:39 make sure to select the feeds in manage feeds? Dec 26 03:43:22 yeah, I've checked those, all the normal ones are selected, and I also selected the beta kernal feeds too Dec 26 03:44:11 I had this problem before. I forgot how I fixed it. Gonna try and remember. Dec 26 03:44:21 lol Dec 26 03:44:28 good to know I'm not the only one Dec 26 03:45:06 (running preware 1.9.7, just installed within the last hour) Dec 26 03:46:15 oh, you know. the problem I had was missing installed packages Dec 26 03:47:45 you do have internet access right? Dec 26 03:48:16 yep, brb sorry Dec 26 03:49:14 yeah Dec 26 03:49:34 when preware starts up, it runs thru loading the feeds like normal Dec 26 03:50:33 oh wait, we turned off / on the wifi and restarted preware and now available packages is selectable Dec 26 03:50:55 I guess all is good then Dec 26 03:50:58 :-) Dec 26 03:51:08 thanks for the help! Dec 26 03:55:11 :-) awesome Dec 26 04:18:22 So my Xserver is installed but is not in Xecutah? Does anybody know how to get it in the Xecutah? Dec 26 04:19:03 When I click xserver it says it needs Xecutah to run, but when I click Xecutah Xserver is not in there. there is Ubuntu and xterm Dec 26 04:19:04 it doesnt show seperately anymore Dec 26 04:19:20 just tap xterm or ubuntu directly Dec 26 04:19:25 itll run automatically Dec 26 04:19:59 oh really? so what your are saying is it is normal? Dec 26 04:20:05 yep. Dec 26 04:20:16 ok then how do I start an x session? Dec 26 04:20:16 used to show up, and you had to tap it seperately. Dec 26 04:20:33 itll run automatically when you tap xterm or ubuntu Dec 26 04:21:26 Do I have to install a windowmanager or is there one already? It seems to drop to a cli Dec 26 04:21:57 yep. you need to install the window manager seperately. Dec 26 04:22:34 What do you use? I like xfce. if I install htat will it autoboot to that or do I have to tell it to somehow? Dec 26 04:22:47 after you install it, you can run it from the cli Dec 26 04:22:58 startx? Dec 26 04:23:02 nope Dec 26 04:23:06 x is already started Dec 26 04:23:34 for example Dec 26 04:23:42 so if I installed xfce will it be the default wm? Dec 26 04:24:04 hey all Dec 26 04:24:32 if you just install xfce, you will run it by typing xfce or xfce-session, or whatever the command is for it now Dec 26 04:24:39 Now when I click ubuntu it goes to a grey screen but if I tap it it goes ot a cli Dec 26 04:24:53 Ok I will try that Dec 26 04:25:01 Is there not a default one? Dec 26 04:25:07 no. Dec 26 04:25:25 Ok cuz I did try gnome-session and it didn't work hehe Dec 26 04:27:53 yea.. you might need extra work to install gnome. Dec 26 04:28:04 I don't know if thats still the case because I don't use it. Dec 26 04:29:27 xfce will be fine Dec 26 04:30:01 All I really want to do is mount an nfs share and stream music is that too much to ask from a tablet Dec 26 04:30:41 read docs. :) Dec 26 04:30:48 you might have to configure some stuff Dec 26 04:30:56 Dude I have been readin all day Dec 26 04:31:02 That is how I got ubuntu on it Dec 26 04:43:42 Thanks for the advice antijingoist it worked, but now there is a ton more broken stuff lol. This is a lot of work just to watch a movie Dec 26 04:44:37 Yea, i don't think xfce is a straight-forward install. Dec 26 04:44:48 if you want easy and quick, try icewm Dec 26 04:50:02 ok cool do you know how to right click with this keyboard? Dec 26 04:52:34 you don't. you modify your x-server to detect a long press as a right click. Dec 26 04:52:40 I haven't done it yet though. Dec 26 04:53:33 nice you have all of the answers Dec 26 04:54:10 Hey what do you think about a bluetooth mouse you think that might sink up? Dec 26 15:59:26 I've been experiencing a critical bug on my AT&T Pre 3 for months now. I was hoping it would be fixed with the 2.2.4 update, but alas it's still here. Dec 26 16:00:27 http://goo.gl/Ur0XB Dec 26 16:00:43 Is that the correct place to report said bug? Dec 26 16:01:14 For the logs: the phone freezes completely while in standby randomly. Dec 26 16:06:30 hello Dec 26 16:10:23 panel: don't be shy Dec 26 16:16:04 "Cursing mostly" haha Dec 26 16:16:33 you may want to seek a warranty repair/replacement Dec 26 16:18:11 is there a place i should direct feature requests with respect to patches? my dad would like to be able to pinch to zoom in the calendar app. i should be able to edit the css to make the font bigger, but i have no idea how i'd handle the pinch to zoom thing. Dec 26 16:21:39 EricBlade: It's a Pre 3. What warranty? Dec 26 16:22:54 dunno, i assume that they are honoring the warranties for them, but i'm not versed in that Dec 26 16:32:37 you should start by removing all your patches.... Dec 26 16:55:35 has anyone noticed massive battery drain whilst connected to wifi on a franken unlocked pre2 w/2.2.4? Dec 26 17:12:32 ok. script is almost built! :D Dec 26 17:13:27 question for someone who has knowledge of the meta-doctor scriptws Dec 26 17:13:28 scripts* Dec 26 17:23:53 they're shell scripts Dec 26 17:25:57 not sure where/how to add what i need.. i think i know, but not sure Dec 26 17:27:08 anyone in here have a sprint pre- that is activated/can be easily activated that can test this for me?

Dec 26 17:37:49 probably Dec 26 17:38:05 if it was in dev mode, and still is, then u can get it into recover mode from the command line Dec 26 17:38:17 its how i always do it for mine. and i have working volume up buttons :) Dec 26 17:38:57 ya, tellbootie recover | maybe later tonight i'll give it a shot, if i can reassemble it :0 Dec 26 17:39:09 lol Dec 26 17:39:23 i'll have to bypass activation as well Dec 26 17:39:31 that can be done with the meta-doctor Dec 26 17:39:42 yup Dec 26 17:44:15 i did not erase my Pre- before franken operation, so i worry about powering it back on Dec 26 17:45:26 itll be fine Dec 26 17:45:33 it wont do anything. not in my experience Dec 26 17:45:39 and ive done the frankenpre before too Dec 26 17:46:30 i guess with a gsm radio in there, not too much to worry about Dec 26 17:53:24 =) Dec 26 17:53:41 hey RichT23 long time no see :) Dec 26 17:54:56 hello PatrickC, yes a while =) Dec 26 17:55:58 u have a sprint pre- thats activated? :) Dec 26 17:56:00 hey dkirker Dec 26 17:56:11 hi PatrickC Dec 26 17:57:25 hows it going dkirker?
