derfUnplug it first, obviously.07:46
derfI've had to do it a few times already.07:47

*** pwille has joined #maemo10:52
*** soleblaze has joined #maemo11:01
[mbm]derf: yep; actual low power mode11:03
[mbm]softoff doesn't do much more than blank the screen11:04
derfYeah, I noticed that.11:05
derfSince my ssh sessions seemed to have no problem.11:05
derfI don't even have suspend working on my laptop.11:06
[mbm]heh11:06
[mbm]theres a 64 second hardware warchdog that I haven't been able to figure out11:07
[mbm]it's part of retu11:07
[mbm]so the script is update the watchdog, set a wakeup and then suspend for 60 sec11:08
[mbm]repeatedly11:09
[mbm]suspend seems to cut power to the screen, wireless and sd cards11:10
derfExcellent. I think except for adding fullscreen support, this port of gjiten is done.11:14
derfAnd maybe figuring out why on earth it shows up in the application menu twice.11:14
*** fab has joined #maemo11:16
[mbm]http://mbm.openwrt.org/n800/suspend.sh11:18
[mbm]needs work; suspends whnever the screen trns off11:19
derfI'd like to figure out how to get it to dim the display when it's unplugged, and change the blank timeouts.11:21
derfWell, presumably I could change all the settings with gconf, if I could just figure out how to detect the event.11:22
*** mk8 has quit IRC11:23
[mbm]you can read/set the backlight either from shell or gconf11:25
*** bilboed has joined #maemo11:25
[mbm]in gconf - /sys/osso/dsm/display11:28
[mbm]shell - /sys/devices/platform/omapfb/panel11:29
derfYeah, but how do I find out when the adapter has been (un)plugged.11:31
kulvelisten to dbus messages11:31
derfI don't see documentation for such things anywhere.11:36
kulvehttp://maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/Maemo_tutorial_bora.html#Hardware-states11:39
kulvelibosso callbacks..11:39
kulvedunno, if there's a DBUS docs somewhere about those. Use dbus-monitor to find them out?11:40
derfI know next to nothing about dbus.11:40

derfSweet.11:43
[mbm]hmm .. my suspend script triggers a soft lock with the timer irq11:53
*** sp3000 has joined #maemo11:55
[mbm]non fatal; just annoying11:55
derfHmm, their e-mail program does not deal well with 21,000 messages.12:00
kulvedoes it do well with anything..12:01
derfI have no idea... I just started it for the first time.12:01
derfIs there something better?12:01
[mbm]anyone want to verify my suspend script in non rd mode?12:02
kulvederf: I think not really..12:02
kulvederf: ssh + pine :)12:02
[mbm]my system is prety customized; not sure the script will wwork for anyone else12:03
[mbm]no takers?12:10
kulve[mbm]: I can test.. Just tell me what and how :)12:11
[mbm]http://mbm.openwrt.org/n800/suspend.sh12:13
[mbm]open an xterm; run the cript and leave it running12:14
kulveas root?12:14
kulveI don't have root in xterm12:14
kulvejust over ssh12:15
[mbm]ok; run via ssh12:15
kulvewhat should it do?12:15
[mbm]if you have softoff use it, otherwise wait for it to turn off the screen due to idle timeout12:16
kulve"wait"12:16
[mbm]script should see the screen off and suspend12:16
kulveok12:16
*** muzz2k has joined #maemo12:17
kulvehow do I see that it goes suspend?12:17
[mbm]and resume with power12:17
[mbm]leave the screen off for over a minute12:18
kulvestill "wait". I have set the idle times pretty long..12:18
[mbm]then power back up12:18
kulvenow the screen dimmed, not blanked yet12:18
svuis there anyone who's n800 hangs at boot time (when the blue progress bar at the bottom reached the right end)?12:18
[mbm]dmesg should then show the VMMC changed12:18
kulve[mbm]: btw. I have it on charger now.. Does it matter?12:20
[mbm]shouldn't12:20
kulveblanked12:21
kulverefresh, sleep12:21
[mbm]right; leave it that way12:22
[mbm]refresh means it updated the watchdog timers12:22
[mbm]sleep means it's waitng for an alarm12:23
[mbm]it sleeps for a minute at a time12:23
*** muzz2k has quit IRC12:23
[mbm]so you see  the cycle repeat12:23
kulveshould I see more "sleep"s ?12:24
spaetz[mbm]: are you creating a better power save mode?12:24
[mbm]spaetz: yep12:24
[mbm]kulve: no; wifi is off12:24
[mbm]when you power it back you may see mmore12:25
spaetzcool, will you post your result to the list (or some other place)? that would be awesome12:25
k-wayI am really happy with the it2007 for n 770.12:26
[mbm]reason i said to keep it off over a min was to see if it'd refresh the watchdog correctly12:26
kulve[mbm]: so, I'll just power it up normally now?12:26
k-waytyping is even beter then with the n80012:26
[mbm]if that fails it actually turns off12:26
[mbm]kulve: power  button should bring it back to where you left it12:27

[mbm]be interesting to look at the current draw from the battery and see how close suspend mode is to actually turning it off12:47

hpBluetooth connection to a PC (really: Linux and Bluez, specifically Fedora) using DUN i.e. "just as with a cell phone", is that of general interest?  Main point is that no tinkering (as with PAN) is be needed on the N800, though several steps needed on the PC.16:39

derfGoddamn, bricked the thing again.20:11
derfThis is starting to get annoying.20:11
kenderhehehe20:12
derfI mean, I didn't even do anything to it.20:12
kenderderf, make a rescue sd partition20:13
kenderderf, maybe update the system?20:13
derfUpdate to what?20:13
derfThe backup program doesn't save any of the useful stuff (like /etc, /usr, etc.)20:13
kenderI mean, you briked your device because you updated the system20:13
kenderyeah, that's true20:14
derfBut I didn't update the system.20:14
kenderok20:14
derfI just rebooted because the menus stopped working properly and it had become really, really, slow.20:14
derfAnd it didn't come back up.20:15
kendermaybe the jffs2 trash collector is doing something strage20:16
derfI'd also been having I/O errors on mmc1, but I took that out.20:17

k-wayderf: do you happens to have canola and media streamer installed21:09
derfk-way: No.21:09
derfWhy?21:09
k-waybecause they scan the media,21:10
derfUgh.21:10
derfI mean, there was nothing on them, except some .debs.21:11
derfBut those .debs kept disappearing.21:11
derfAnd eventually the whole directory they were in vanished.21:11
derfMy favorite was the period of time in which I could ls mmc1, and it would show up empty, and then I could cd into debs, and it would be there.21:12
k-wayI sometimes had to remove the battery but make the thing working again21:12
derfYes, that didn't work.21:13
derfI had to re-flash.21:13
hefneris there some magic I must do to make the dropbear client work? Whenever I try to connect anywhere, it gives a warning about the random source then hangs forever.21:17

superbiasomething I havn't managed to figure out yet is why isn't there a "large" distro for the n800 when I find alot of armel compiled packages for diffrent distros?22:01

elshadiiI'm trying to install xterm on an N800, when I execute xterm after installation it starts then immediately exits is this a place I can get help?22:38
derfIt is, but I don't know how to help you.22:39
derfOf the many problems I've had, that's not one of them.22:39
BrianRiceelshadii: do you have busybox installed? (dunno if it's standard, but a missing shell might mess with xterm)22:43
elshadiiok that's a good question, I am looking22:46
elshadiiit is not on the installed list or on the list of installable apps22:54
elshadiido you know where I can get a package for the N80022:55
