It's been a while since I messed with it, but it seems that may have to do with the preware service not running Nov 19 11:33:32 I have installed preware several time again using varoous installation methods Nov 19 11:33:47 since your upgrade to 3.0.5? Nov 19 11:33:52 how do I see if the preware service is running Nov 19 11:34:24 Installingnpreware via webos quick install and standalone through linux Nov 19 11:34:49 what version of preware?

Nov 19 11:36:20 touchpad Nov 19 11:36:36 hp Nov 19 11:37:22 sorry, but I have no clue, never experienced that Nov 19 11:37:35 I only ever install preware using the SDK tools Nov 19 11:37:41 a.k.a. palm-install Nov 19 11:38:00 Want to snow me how to do this Nov 19 11:38:21 you would need to install the webos SDK Nov 19 11:38:29 and then download the ipk Nov 19 11:38:41 and then run palm-install /path/to/file.ipk Nov 19 11:38:44 ok can you take me true this Nov 19 11:40:15 I can't really at the moment, I am at work Nov 19 11:40:15 ?

Nov 19 11:41:15 depends Nov 19 11:42:08 unlix you can see my issue above Nov 19 11:42:29 getting and error in preware since update to 3.0.5 Nov 19 11:42:54 error message status unknown and pa5ches not loading Nov 19 11:42:54 i think reinstalling preware has already been suggested Nov 19 11:43:08 yes done this many times Nov 19 11:43:20 always the same error message? Nov 19 11:43:25 yes Nov 19 11:43:28 :s Nov 19 11:43:30 rich_, what do you mean by patches not loading? Nov 19 11:43:37 message status unknown Nov 19 11:44:00 at which point do you get that error? Nov 19 11:44:08 well in preware, I look in installed patches and it is empty Nov 19 11:44:21 there should be loads of patches Nov 19 11:44:23 I thought you said you had no patches installed Nov 19 11:44:33 yes jone Nov 19 11:44:49 as preware is broke and won't download them Nov 19 11:45:00 so if you have no patches installed, why would you expect to see patches in the list of installed patches? Nov 19 11:45:09 and at which point in preware do you get that message? Nov 19 11:46:06 because when preware is installed and working properly you should see patches Nov 19 11:46:17 only if you have installed patches Nov 19 11:46:27 error message appears as soon as I launch preware Nov 19 11:46:39 ok, and nothing shows up, at all, before that shows? Nov 19 11:46:40 webos 3.0.5 Nov 19 11:46:47 yes, I know you are on 3.0.5 Nov 19 11:46:48 no nothing Nov 19 11:46:53 stop repeating yourself please Nov 19 11:47:09 is resetting the device an option? Nov 19 11:47:20 you could try doctoring it Nov 19 11:47:26 and then reinstall preware after the doctor Nov 19 11:47:44 doctoring to which version big balls? Nov 19 11:47:48 without having the device, it's going to be difficult for me to figure out what is going wrong internally with preware Nov 19 11:47:59 rich_, what's with the big balls? Nov 19 11:48:12 and you would use the 3.0.5 doctor Nov 19 11:48:47 3.0.5, well from what I can see preware dont work on 3.0.5 Nov 19 11:48:57 do you have a touchpad Nov 19 11:49:09 rich_, I have 4 touchpads Nov 19 11:49:17 and I have preware on all of them Nov 19 11:49:34 preware is working fine Nov 19 11:49:52 ok I'm going to have to doctor Nov 19 11:49:54 I thought you said it was broken?

Nov 19 11:54:06 followed the advanced wifi guide but it still won't connect :s Nov 19 11:54:09 rich_, nope, never played with xbmc Nov 19 11:54:39 rich_, are you talking about running an xbmc app? or xbmc from within an android install on a touchpad? Nov 19 11:54:40 ok that's fine Nov 19 11:55:10 anyway at all xbmc looks good Nov 19 11:55:21 I have no clue what you are talking about Nov 19 11:55:30 think some people are running on android cyanogen 9 Nov 19 11:55:44 I don't have cyanogen on any of my touchpads Nov 19 11:55:55 I run it on my Galaxy S3, but not on my TP Nov 19 11:56:06 no problem cryptk Nov 19 11:56:14 thanks for your advise Nov 19 11:56:22 I must go doctor Nov 19 17:05:11 hi all Nov 19 17:05:31 I'm back and predate is working after webOS doc Nov 19 17:05:48 I'm delighted predate is now working again Nov 19 17:05:53 preware Nov 19 17:06:01 is working Nov 19 17:06:06 ye haw Nov 19 17:06:24 now can I ask another question please? Nov 19 17:08:39 is there a way to install .all files on webOS or install xbmc Nov 19 17:08:56 .all files Nov 19 17:09:04 .apk Nov 19 17:09:24 can I install .apk files Nov 19 17:10:06 richie_: not that i know of Nov 19 17:10:10 .apk is an android package Nov 19 17:10:13 webos uses .ipk Nov 19 17:14:19 ok, but a package called CNBC which I want is in this format Nov 19 17:14:48 do you know were down find xbmc for touchpad Nov 19 17:17:23 so I want to install xbmc on my touchpad can anyone help me? Nov 19 17:20:34 xbmc is not an app we created...there *might* be someone who can help...but you *might* want to use #webos for that question as this one is specific to webos-internals apps. Nov 19 17:22:19 of course you *could* timeout...for the 48th time and then come back in and ask the *same* question... Nov 19 17:23:12 ka6sox++ Nov 20 01:10:21 "big balls" ? Nov 20 01:12:46 should point richie to #cyanogenmod-touchpad for his .apk files question Nov 20 01:16:04 good. Nov 20 01:57:32 shhh. no need to get all helpful all of a sudden Nov 20 02:00:12 jcsullins, we want to spread the Love around :D Nov 20 02:00:20 :) Nov 20 02:00:31 heh Nov 20 02:08:24 GMMan: hi Nov 20 02:08:29 Hi! Nov 20 02:16:14 jcsullins, can I unmount /data on a running Android system? Nov 20 02:17:39 ka6sox: don't think so Nov 20 02:18:59 okay that just makes it another step to do what I need. Nov 20 02:20:40 hiya GMMan Nov 20 02:22:59 jcsullins, have you resized any android partitions before? Nov 20 02:23:13 or created additional ones? Nov 20 02:23:28 many times on touchpad Nov 20 02:23:52 is this touchpad? Nov 20 02:23:55 no Nov 20 02:24:23 I need to carve a 1GB extra partition out of /data Nov 20 02:24:40 device has 12GB of /data currently Nov 20 02:24:51 ah, then it's probably a little more complicated (doing real partitions instead of LVM volumes) Nov 20 02:25:05 ya Nov 20 02:25:09 I suspect so. Nov 20 02:25:32 though we can now do real re-partitioning on touchpad Nov 20 02:25:58 ^ goes along w/ having a de- brick method Nov 20 02:27:03 I need a 1GB partition that I can use for a new rootfs and keep the /data available. Nov 20 02:30:21 too bad this isnt' LVM..that would make it simple... Nov 20 02:32:55 jcsullins, any pointers? Nov 20 02:35:08 ka6sox: no, sorry, haven't really done any repart of non-touchpads Nov 20 02:35:30 are you resizing the MMC partitions? Nov 20 02:36:41 on touchpad, I did yesterday (shrunk the lvm part and created 4 after it) Nov 20 02:36:56 though webos doc doesn't like it Nov 20 02:47:24 I bet not Nov 20 02:49:29 15 partitions on this device Nov 20 02:49:47 I need to shrink P13, add P15 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Nov 20 02:59:57 2012
