ShadowJKThe GTK thing with hw accelerated graphics and smooth animation01:56
DocScrutinizerthe firstboot-datepicker slotmachine is the worst I've ever seen, right01:56

DocScrutinizerI#m 20 times as fast with sth like this, compared to fuckin slotmachine nonsense01:59

DocScrutinizeractually the fistboot timepicker is the only good one I've ever seen on fremantle02:41
DocScrutinizerwhile datepicker at same location is one of the worst ever - only HARM competes to it02:42
*** gn00b has joined #maemo02:42
DocScrutinizerand there only QTM date-tumbler, while MTF datepicker is really one of the best I've ever seen02:43

TiagoTiagoalright, i got  my N900 back from the repairshop temporarily to try to recover my files and stuff (they fucked the somthing that talks to the screen, the screen itself is working, according tot he repair guy he tried a different board on the same screen and it works); using VNC or the RCA cable doesn't work, the  resolution is crazy, very short and wide; SSH works; besides getting my files i...08:54
TiagoTiago...would like to at least try to diagnose what the fuck happened to the display capabilities; any ideas?08:54

SiceloTiagoTiago: i wonder if they didn't mess your ribbon .. but i got 720x8 or sth. like that when running debian on my n900. problem was dbus not correctly populating /dev13:56
TiagoTiagoIs it somthing that can be fixed by software?13:56
Siceloi would return it.. to rule out hardware13:57
SiceloTiagoTiago: i'' no guru.. also wait here for more knowledgeable people13:57
TiagoTiagoI don't hold much hope on that repairshop, i'm returning it, but i would like to try to understand what happen while it's on my hands13:58
Sicelodebian would sometimes say it discovered a 196*14 screen, lol13:58
Sicelostart by examining your Xorg.log13:59
SiceloXorg.0.log, rather14:00
TiagoTiago"No Layout section. Using the first Screen section." "No screen section avaiable. Using defaults."14:01

TiagoTiagono USB, that is why i took it to the repairshop in the firstplace14:20
Sicelodang. i hear you 'can' flash from SD card .. not sure of the details... in any case, maybe you just need reinstall of dbus & xserver -- hypothetical guess14:22

*** Arkenoi has joined #maemo14:27
TiagoTiagoI was hoping i was gonna be able to figure out what had happened to it...oh well, gonna leave the battery charging on the external charger and once it's full start copying my files to hand the device back to the repairshop for them to try to build a frankenstein with spare parts to at least give me back somthing in the same conditions as what i  had left with them when my USB died...14:29

ebzzryHi! Why is it that I lost wireless access after a system update? (via apt-get)15:50
Hurriansomething went wrong15:52
Hurrianalso, dist-upgrade is wrong15:52
ebzzryPrior to the update, no other things were done.15:52
ebzzryHmm.15:52
ebzzryWhy?15:52
ebzzry(i'm currently restoring from backups) im still interested to know why.15:54
Hurrianyou used dist-upgrade?15:56
ebzzryya15:56
Hurrianprobably upgraded to a broken lib from some repo15:56
ebzzryhmm. technically, i used aptitude safe-upgrade15:56
Hurrianaptitude, even if it is smarter, is not the software servicing tool for maemo15:56
Hurriannokia fucked up apt on maemo, doesn't work like it should on debian15:57
*** mortenvp has joined #maemo15:57
Hurrianuse command line upgrade only when necessary15:57
Hurrianotherwise, use ham/fapman15:57
ebzzryok15:57
Hurriang2g, sr215:57
r00t|homeebzzry: you are restoring from backups - without bothering to investigate how/why it's broken?15:57
ebzzryr00t|home: i am restoring from backups, yes. but not without bothering to investigate.15:58
r00t|homeso you found it impossible to fix without restoring?15:58
ebzzrythe phone's connectivity to the internet is critical, so i needed it backup up. i am curious what happened, because i will reproduce it.15:59
ebzzryr00t|home: i did not find it impossible. it was just that i had constraints.15:59
r00t|homegood15:59
ebzzryif i can find what went wrong, then i will redo it.16:00
ebzzryredo what borked it.16:00
ebzzryi was about to ask hurrian what source does he have for saying that apt is broken on maemo516:01
ebzzryusing gui tools for updating is time consuming. having to wait for fam for updates drives me nuts.16:02
ebzzrydo you have insights on the issue?16:03
r00t|homenothing, sorrry16:03
r00t|homefam is horrible indeed... i wonder how it managed to be so slow...16:04
ebzzryok. nevertheless, you raised a good question16:04
r00t|home*manages16:04
ebzzryi do not know with others, but i find it impossbible for ham to have a way to select multiple items for one operation.16:04
r00t|homeand that, combines with the slowness, is fatal16:05
ebzzrywith fam, whenever i do something, it performs updates. unfortunately, i do not have a spectacular connection16:05
r00t|homealso, having to answer that stupid dialog for any 3rd-party package...16:05
ebzzry /sigh/16:06
*** LaoLang_cool has quit IRC16:06
ebzzrywhen i upgrade installed packages, i use apt-get or apitude. until earlier, i have been using apt-get or aptitude to upgrade the whole system.16:06
ebzzryi also do not know how to disable the annoying blinking icon that shows in the status area when updates to packages are available16:06
r00t|homeiirc i read you can kill the update-checking thing... (consider possible waste of bandwidth, too)16:08
ebzzrydo you have any links or links to links that i can go check out?16:08

DocScrutinizerall that claimed they did it without trouble finally turned out to not *truly* have replaced messybox by bash, for user21:33
MrPinguwell I rebooted atleast more than once :P21:33
DocScrutinizerand your user account will come up with bash?21:34
MrPinguYes ;)21:34
DocScrutinizerit's basically not bash itself but the messybox tools that will break when replaced21:34
DocScrutinizerAFAIK21:34
DocScrutinizerMrPingu: so your bash is in /etc/shells ?21:34
DocScrutinizerand /bin/sh points to bash?21:35
*** drussell has quit IRC21:35
DocScrutinizerthere's quite a number of ways to fail one way or the other, to either of both sides21:35
DocScrutinizerbut basically it's installing of unix toolbox aka *utils that will finally make your device bootloop21:36

DocScrutinizerfrom man bash: >> --norc Do not read and execute the personal initialization file ~/.bashrc  if  the  shell  is  interactive.   This              option is on by default if the shell is invoked as sh.21:38

MrPinguhttp://www.maemo.org/community/maemo-users/bashrc_not_executed/21:40
MrPinguWhich file you talking about?21:40
DocScrutinizeretc/shells21:41

MrPinguIssue fixed ;)21:43
DocScrutinizerwell, I had the issue that even messybox was reading .bash* files21:45
DocScrutinizerwhich it clearly isn't meant to do21:45
DocScrutinizerwas due to the funny fact some fool added this to .profile IIRC21:46
MrPinguWell the danger comes in, when installing  GNU core utils and then linking them...21:49
DocScrutinizerwhat I said above, yeah21:50
DocScrutinizerI solved it by tweaking my $PATH for bash only21:50
DocScrutinizerand not making bash my default shell on user21:50
MrPinguI might want to do that too then21:50
DocScrutinizerthat's when I started noticing this messybox scripting bashrc shit, and learned hating it21:51
MrPingucan you change prompt of messybox?21:51
DocScrutinizerI'd guess you can21:51
DocScrutinizerdunno for sure21:52
*** kerio has quit IRC21:52
*** kerio has joined #maemo21:52
MrPinguHmm I am gonna make sh default shell again...21:52
DocScrutinizerfirst command after login is "bash" for me ;-)21:52
MrPinguand your root is set to bash too?21:53
DocScrutinizera bit of an inconvenience, but ohmy21:53
MrPinguI have a seperate bash.desktop21:53
MrPinguonly no way to start it via shift ctrl x then...21:54
*** kerio92 has joined #maemo21:54
MrPinguI mean, as soon you type root in bash, it exits bash and opens BB root shell =(21:55

DocScrutinizerthe bootloop fsckup is with user cranking up X21:57
*** MrPingu has joined #maemo21:58
MrPinguDocScrutinizer, how did you tweak $path for bash only then, as messybox reads bashrc files?22:00
DocScrutinizerI'd hope I have documented it at22:00
DocScrutinizer~jrtools22:00
infobotrumour has it, jrtools is http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools22:00
MrPinguHave that page bookmarked alreayd :P22:01
DocScrutinizerhmm, prolly not22:01
DocScrutinizerlemme pick it out for you22:01
MrPinguoh and messybox, does read my .bashrc file22:02

*** nox- has joined #maemo22:28
DocScrutinizerlook at the commented out 3 lines of above quote of ~/.profile22:28
DocScrutinizerI guess originally it had only the plain  . ~/.bashrc line22:29
*** piggz__ has joined #maemo22:30
DocScrutinizerI actually forgot to document what I did back when22:30
DocScrutinizerso if you could do that now, it for sure would be highly appreciated22:30
*** konelix_ has quit IRC22:31

MrPinguWhat I did, is just comment out those lines ;)22:33

MrPinguI don't get why you uncommented that second line22:52
DocScrutinizerwhich one?22:52
MrPingu#PATH=/usr/bin/gnu:$PATH22:52
DocScrutinizerit's not what I wanted it to be22:53
DocScrutinizerthis way it would override e.g. /usr/local/*22:53
DocScrutinizerI prefer /usr/local/(s)bin to override everything else22:54
DocScrutinizerso >> PATH=$(echo $PATH|sed "s.:/usr/bin:.:/usr/bin/gnu:/usr/bin:.;s.:/usr/sbin:.:/usr/sbin/gnu:/usr/sbin:.") << is exactly what I like it to be22:55
