| MrPingu | Evening! | 00:01 |
| freemangordon | hi | 00:01 |
| vi__ | yo. | 00:03 |
| vi__ | teotwaki: but how will people then vote for the features they want in the upcoming jolla??? | 00:03 |
| kerio | haha | 00:04 |
| freemangordon | vi__: is that english or scotish sense of humor? :P | 00:05 |
| vi__ | freemangordon: alarmui already?? | 00:05 |
| freemangordon | yep | 00:05 |
| vi__ | damn your fast. | 00:05 |
| freemangordon | http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1293135#post1293135 | 00:05 |
| vi__ | I just gave mrs vi__ an n900. she saw the way skype, contacts and messaging works. | 00:06 |
| vi__ | *mind blown* | 00:06 |
| Cor-Ai | haha | 00:07 |
| freemangordon | no other way | 00:07 |
| vi__ | truely. | 00:07 |
| freemangordon | where she comes from, faildroid? | 00:07 |
| MrPingu | freemangordon: downloading right away, will test it next morning | 00:07 |
| vi__ | one way it could have been cooler though is to thread ALL messages (im, text, etc) in one monlithic thread. | 00:08 |
| MrPingu | hmm I am starting to get a little bit worried about my 2nd N900, thats supposed to come my way | 00:08 |
| freemangordon | MrPingu: but make sure to have some backup wake-up strategy ;) | 00:08 |
| freemangordon | vi__: nooo | 00:08 |
| vi__ | she came from symbian. | 00:08 |
| MrPingu | freemangordon: was in the middle of a sentence: ofcourse with a backup alarm too | 00:09 |
| freemangordon | vi__: hmm, afaik messaging is not that bad on symbian | 00:09 |
| vi__ | she just got a nexus 7, still excited by the shiny. | 00:09 |
| freemangordon | never used symbian phone | 00:09 |
| vi__ | symbian 5th edition. | 00:09 |
| vi__ | xm5800 | 00:09 |
| MrPingu | 5800? | 00:09 |
| freemangordon | s50? | 00:09 |
| MrPingu | awh, did she have my custom-firmware? | 00:10 |
| Sysaxed2 | DocScrutinizer05, thanks for your help, the thread is there now :) | 00:10 |
| MrPingu | freemangordon: no s60v5 :P | 00:10 |
| vi__ | MrPingu: ooh, you know about haxing 5800? | 00:10 |
| freemangordon | my sister still uses 5800 as second device | 00:10 |
| freemangordon | MrPingu: aah, ok :D | 00:10 |
| vi__ | I hear you can put C6 firmware on it? | 00:10 |
| MrPingu | vi_: yes was deep into it :P | 00:10 |
| freemangordon | the last nokia before n900 i had was 6260 | 00:11 |
| freemangordon | went to HTC trinity after that | 00:11 |
| vi__ | excellant, I would like to pick your mind at some point in a few days if you have some time. | 00:11 |
| MrPingu | vi_: yep, but I left the scene when I got my n900 and gave my 5800 to my bro | 00:11 |
| vi__ | MrPingu: do you know about putting c6 firmware on it? | 00:12 |
| MrPingu | Yes my firmware was based on c6 | 00:12 |
| Sysaxed2 | before n900 I had Nokia e70. Wonderful phone! 2006s version of n900, haha | 00:12 |
| vi__ | Sysaxed2: e72 for life! | 00:12 |
| freemangordon | hmm, what about e90? | 00:12 |
| MrPingu | You need to have a windoze 32 bit system to flash it though | 00:12 |
| vi__ | MrPingu: I have! | 00:13 |
| MrPingu | e90, that's one massive weapon | 00:13 |
| freemangordon | almost as big as n900 :P | 00:13 |
| Sysaxed2 | the keyboard of e70 is so nice :> | 00:13 |
| MrPingu | or let's say: expensives brick | 00:13 |
| Sysaxed2 | sometimes I miss it when I'm using n900 | 00:13 |
| freemangordon | MrPingu: why is that? | 00:14 |
| freemangordon | I've never used it, but iirc it was ok | 00:14 |
| MrPingu | It's even bigger and heavier than the n900 | 00:15 |
| teotwaki | I think I might go for the n4. | 00:16 |
| MrPingu | And whit the metal body, it's a perfect replacement for the brick we normally use to built houses :P | 00:16 |
| teotwaki | well, I convinced the company to get me a note 2 and n4, will see what works best. | 00:16 |

| MrPingu | Not that I suggest to use that firmware as it's outdated by now | 00:18 |
| kerio | Pali: i got a "low battery" warning at 3519mV | 00:19 |
| Pali | kerio, yes there is that waring | 00:19 |
| kerio | 3.5V is not even close to EDV1 | 00:19 |

| kerio | 7% | 00:21 |
| kerio | now 6% | 00:21 |
| Pali | its ok | 00:21 |
| Pali | 7-8% for first low is ok | 00:21 |
| kerio | i agree | 00:21 |

| *** sq-one has quit IRC | 00:22 | |
| freemangordon | Pali: when do you start shutdown? | 00:23 |
| kerio | i mean, there should be some leeway | 00:23 |
| Pali | freemangordon, EDVF | 00:23 |
| freemangordon | ok | 00:23 |
| Pali | or voltage under 3000 | 00:23 |
| Pali | or mAh under 20 | 00:23 |
| kerio | Pali: you still haven't answered my previous question, though - what's the deal with the charge termination? | 00:23 |
| kerio | do you just let bq24150 do its thing? | 00:24 |
| kerio | because i've *never* saw the green solid led | 00:24 |
| Pali | yes | 00:24 |
| *** shamus has quit IRC | 00:24 | |

| kerio | is it getting to a point where it thinks the battery is charged, though? | 00:25 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | Pali: mAh under 20?? that's BAD | 00:25 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | there's no way to have a mAh value suited for shutdown | 00:26 |
| kerio | Pali: hold on, does it shut down at VERYLOW? | 00:27 |
| Pali | no | 00:27 |
| Pali | on empty | 00:28 |
| * MrPingu will be right back, rebooting his N900 for alarm-ui | 00:28 | |

| MrPingu | Set 3 alarms, if I wake up on 8:10 alarmui is working. If I wake up on 8:25, backup alarm was triggered :P | 00:32 |
| freemangordon | MrPingu: in what interval? | 00:33 |
| MrPingu | 8:10, 8:14 8:20 | 00:33 |
| MrPingu | with snooze of 10 | 00:34 |
| MrPingu | let's see what happens with snooze of alarm 1 + 3 ;) | 00:34 |
| freemangordon | noo, do them 8:10,8:11,8:12 | 00:34 |
| MrPingu | As you wish :P | 00:34 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | Pali: mAh under 20?? that's BAD | 00:34 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | there's no way to have a mAh value suited for shutdown | 00:35 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | kerio: Pali: bq24150 charge end will never kick in when system conctantly eating >50some mA | 00:35 |
| freemangordon | MrPingu: you'll have 3 groups , 3 minutes of alarm sound each | 00:35 |
| freemangordon | MrPingu: and you better set snooze to 5, so all will be finished until your backup alarm rings | 00:36 |
| kerio | yay calibration complete | 00:36 |
| kerio | :D | 00:36 |
| Pali | battery full is when bq27200 report FLAG_FC | 00:36 |
| kerio | ...dafuq, 1311mAh | 00:37 |
| *** hazchemix has quit IRC | 00:37 | |

| *** Dibblah has quit IRC | 00:37 | |

| kerio | Pali: hm, the value in rx51-battery seems to be "synchronized" with bq27k | 00:38 |
| freemangordon | oops, 1 minute error, but the idea is clear | 00:38 |
| Pali | kerio, if it still not show battery full give me output of bq27200.sh | 00:38 |
| kerio | well, this calibration was a failure :s | 00:38 |
| kerio | Pali: heh, i'm getting "low battery" warnings while charging, now | 00:39 |
| kerio | it could be because i tinkered with the modules, mind you | 00:39 |
| Pali | if you rmmoded modules, then yes | 00:39 |
| MrPingu | freemangordon: got it, having an awful amount of alarms set now :o | 00:39 |
| freemangordon | why? you need only 3 for the time between 8:10-8:25 | 00:40 |
| *** Pali has quit IRC | 00:41 | |
| freemangordon | anyway, lets see how Monday will start :D:D:D | 00:41 |
| MrPingu | btw: what happens if you for example put an alarm on 8:10 and 8:15 and snooze the one of 8:10? | 00:41 |
| freemangordon | both will ring at the same time :P | 00:42 |
| MrPingu | or wat will happen happen if you have 2 alarms of 8:10? | 00:42 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | but *2, yeah, might suffice | 02:19 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | mad_dev: sorry, but your help is not really correct I'd think | 03:42 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | a uSD card may show 110 IO errors despite getting mounted without problems | 03:43 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | devilinside: probably your card is close to the edge, working in some readers while not working in e.g. N900 | 03:43 |
| devilinside | then is it phones fault or the memory cards ? | 03:43 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | basically card's fault | 03:44 |
| devilinside | :( then will be getting it changed.. sandisk class 10 32 gb sucks.. | 03:44 |
| devilinside | but as some hav esaid, their 110 error vanished after using this driver http://forums.internettablettalk.com/showthread.php?p=1005593#post1005593 | 03:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | there's defect from fab hw every now and then | 03:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | well, another driver might change some parameters in the uSD interface in N900, this doesn't mean that N900 is defect, nor does it mean the card is OK. It just is a question if card is 'good enough' for N900 | 03:46 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | usually sandisk should be pretty 'good' | 03:47 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but as mentioned above, there are variations in hw properties even with new stuff | 03:47 |
| *** Venusaur has joined #maemo | 03:48 | |
| mad_dev | devilinside: i did some quick research, I can confirm what DocScrutinizer05 said. A USB 110 error in linux means that the hub was not able to supply adequate power. I suggest testing a new card | 03:49 |

| *** FIQ|android has quit IRC | 04:11 | |
| *** FIQ|android has joined #maemo | 04:11 | |
| Sysaxed | cuz seems like no one is going to create a phone that is similar to n900 | 04:11 |
| Sysaxed | and there's no need, we already have our n900's | 04:11 |
| Sysaxed | so probably it's the best thing a human being can create | 04:11 |
| SpeedEvil | Jolla is a possible option soon. | 04:12 |
| SpeedEvil | sort of derived in some ways. | 04:12 |
| Sysaxed | it took some time for nokia to come to n900 | 04:13 |
| mad_dev | how mush will it cost(estimate) to re-launch maemo? | 04:13 |
| demonbell | I'm left Nokia fan however :) | 04:13 |
| GeneralAntilles | demonbell, welcome to Windows Phone, then. | 04:13 |
| Sysaxed | so the first phones from Jolla are not going to be that awesome | 04:13 |
| demonbell | Waiting for Lumia 920 :) | 04:13 |
| demonbell | looks brliant | 04:13 |
| Sysaxed | + you know, it's not a good marketing politic to create phones like n900 | 04:13 |
| demonbell | *brilliant | 04:13 |
| mad_dev | Sysaxed: True | 04:13 |
| nox- | SpeedEvil, does jolla use aegis? | 04:14 |
| SpeedEvil | not been announced. | 04:14 |
| SpeedEvil | and frankly, aegis was never the problem. | 04:14 |
| Sysaxed | so probably they're going to create something that most people like... thin device with a capacitive screen | 04:14 |
| SpeedEvil | the problem was the lack of control. | 04:15 |
| mad_dev | There is also B2G Firefox | 04:15 |
| nox- | SpeedEvil, true | 04:15 |
| Skry | I just want something with a physical qwerty which is not a windows phone, if I cant find a decent one, I'll just buy one of those 16e samsungs and live happily everafter | 04:15 |
| SpeedEvil | aegis plus 'install from other app stores' would address most of the issues | 04:15 |
| Sysaxed | Skry, just stick with n900? :) | 04:15 |
| robbiethe1st | I'm sticking with my N900 until I find something with a better processor, higher-res screen, good HW keyboard, and good battery life | 04:16 |
| Skry | Sysaxed: that's my plan for now, just looking at the future :) | 04:16 |
| SpeedEvil | 3 years ago, most websites worked OK with n900. | 04:16 |
| robbiethe1st | ...and open | 04:16 |
| SpeedEvil | this is getting less true | 04:16 |
| Sysaxed | today I've managed to find a preset in pierogi for my TV | 04:17 |
| mad_dev | Skry: I said the same thing...I have been waiting for 2 years | 04:17 |
| Sysaxed | so now I wont ever buy a smartphone without IR port | 04:17 |
| Skry | robbiethe1st: I'm afraid it's gonna take a while for next "open" phone to hit the markets :\ | 04:17 |
| robbiethe1st | Yeah | 04:17 |
| Sysaxed | the problem with n900 is that it's not that open | 04:18 |
| Skry | mad_dev: so let's hope our n900s last forever then! | 04:18 |
| Sysaxed | too many things are closed source | 04:18 |
| robbiethe1st | It is in the way I need - Console, root, and I can run my own code. | 04:18 |
| Sysaxed | if everything was open, we wouldn't even need Nokia or any other company.. | 04:18 |
| demonbell | I think bathery indicator software is closed | 04:18 |
| robbiethe1st | and it's standard enough that it doesn't matter | 04:18 |
| Sysaxed | I've really hoped for n9 | 04:19 |
| Sysaxed | but when it came out without a keyboard... | 04:19 |

| freemangordon | of course if NAND is different, RAM will differ too | 14:15 |
| Hurrian | or was it two internal 128M layers on the OneNAND vs single 256M on 2204? | 14:15 |

| freemangordon | yep | 14:15 |
| Hurrian | forgot how the conversation with Pali went. | 14:15 |
| freemangordon | at least that is what NOLO reports | 14:16 |
| freemangordon | one thing that I saw, is that my 2204 records 720p on steady 25 FPS | 14:17 |
| Hurrian | otherwise, IIRC there are no significant differences between hardware revisions other than the case, which is dubious | 14:17 |
| freemangordon | 2101 goes up to 23-24 | 14:17 |
| freemangordon | ^^^ might be related to memory | 14:17 |

| jon_y | the LGPL lib that it uses must remain LGPL, with source distributed | 14:24 |
| freemangordon | jon_y: sure, but that is part of monolitic application binary | 14:24 |
| freemangordon | it does not use any library | 14:25 |
| jon_y | ohboy | 14:25 |
| freemangordon | got it? | 14:25 |
| jon_y | that is a LGPL violation since it does not allow user replacable parts | 14:25 |
| jon_y | which is the whole point of LGPL | 14:25 |
| jon_y | it is messy when you do static linking | 14:25 |
| freemangordon | this is LGPL violation, as source code licensed under LGPL is reused in that program, which makes the whole program LGPL-ed AIUI | 14:26 |
| jaska | unless theres static link exception or relinkable .o:s | 14:26 |
| freemangordon | there are no modules/libs | 14:26 |
| jon_y | there would be no problem if they used the .so and provided the .so sources though | 14:27 |
| freemangordon | jaska: still, you should provide source code of LGPLed parts | 14:27 |
| teotwaki | freemangordon: what the fuck? | 14:27 |
| freemangordon | which one? | 14:27 |
| teotwaki | freemangordon: LGPL explicitely enables linking from proprietary apps | 14:27 |
| *** sirdancealot2a has joined #maemo | 14:28 | |
| jaska | freeman: that too.. the relinkable .o:s mean the non-free parts so you could relink with a new lgpl .a :) | 14:28 |
| jon_y | teotwaki: it doesn't absolve you from requiring to provide th LGPL sources | 14:28 |
| jon_y | and MAKE IT USER REPLACABLE | 14:28 |
| freemangordon | exactly | 14:28 |
| teotwaki | jon_y: actually, if you don't ship it, you don't have to ship the sources | 14:28 |
| jon_y | that is also right | 14:28 |
| freemangordon | teotwaki: that one is in ovi store | 14:28 |
| jon_y | but ABC here is shipped by OVI store | 14:29 |
| teotwaki | so? | 14:29 |
| *** iDont has quit IRC | 14:29 | |
| teotwaki | is it statically linked? | 14:29 |
| freemangordon | it is monolitic binary | 14:30 |
| jon_y | yes, as freemangordon said | 14:30 |
| *** FIQ|android has joined #maemo | 14:30 | |
| teotwaki | oh, and by the way, "providing sources" can == "Sources used from http://whatever.com/sources.tgz" | 14:30 |
| jon_y | no | 14:30 |
| teotwaki | Yes. | 14:30 |
| freemangordon | sore, but this is missing too | 14:30 |
| jon_y | it must be from the same distributor | 14:30 |
| freemangordon | jon_y: yes, if you didn't change them | 14:30 |
| teotwaki | No, it mustn't. | 14:30 |
| jon_y | not from a 3rd party site | 14:30 |
| jon_y | I asked a lawyer from redhat | 14:31 |
| teotwaki | and I discussed this with Stallman himself. | 14:31 |
| teotwaki | well, not exactly this bit, but fairly sure it came up at some point. | 14:31 |
| freemangordon | jon_y: I hold my code on gitorious, gitorious is 3rd party ;) | 14:31 |
| jon_y | freemangordon: well, the point is that you don't point it to a random 3rd party that wasn't involved with the user | 14:32 |
| teotwaki | jon_y: say you get a GPL binary, you ask for the source, he sends a DVD with the source, is it the same distributor? | 14:32 |
| *** dafox has joined #maemo | 14:32 | |
| jon_y | teotwaki: yes, he provided it right? | 14:32 |
| *** Dibblah_ is now known as Dibblah | 14:32 | |
| jaska | should print the source with a mt-81 9-pin matrix printer <.< | 14:32 |
| jon_y | no, it must be machine readable | 14:33 |
| teotwaki | I'm fairly sure that when Ubuntu sent out DVDs with the installation disks on it, which contained source code, it wasn't handled by Canonical itself, it was mandated by, but handled by another company. | 14:33 |
| *** jacekowski has joined #maemo | 14:33 | |
| jaska | what is and what isnt machine readable these days | 14:33 |
| jon_y | teotwaki: the problem is that the 3rd party website has no obligation to provide it | 14:33 |
| jon_y | you'd be violating LGPL if they ever pulled the source | 14:33 |
| teotwaki | jon_y: but as long as the third party website does provide it, there is no inherent requirement for the app developer to produce it. | 14:33 |
| freemangordon | jon_y, teotwaki: anyway AIUI ABC is in clear LGPL violation | 14:34 |
| jon_y | yes, wherever they put the source, it is still not user replacable | 14:34 |
| teotwaki | jon_y: I've spent the last 2 years researching and filing LGPL documentation for a project that I created as LGPL and is to be used by the company, secondary LGPL don't have to be "hosted" by the developer, they just have to be accessible. | 14:35 |
| freemangordon | there is no source code at all, afaik | 14:35 |
| jon_y | teotwaki: don't know, it was a redhat lawyer that told me so | 14:36 |
| freemangordon | teotwaki: if you get a LGPLed library source, change it to fit your needs and link it in your app, does LGPL still cover that part of the source code? | 14:36 |
| teotwaki | yes | 14:36 |
| freemangordon | so you MUST provide the source | 14:37 |
| teotwaki | no | 14:37 |
| freemangordon | what? | 14:37 |
| freemangordon | why? | 14:37 |
| teotwaki | Only the *path* which applies to a specific source has to be available | 14:37 |
| teotwaki | patch** | 14:37 |
| teotwaki | And any tooling used to apply said patch. | 14:37 |
| freemangordon | well, ok, the patch and instructions | 14:37 |
| teotwaki | yes | 14:38 |
| freemangordon | and link to the original source code | 14:38 |
| jon_y | or just provide everything | 14:38 |
| freemangordon | ok | 14:38 |
| freemangordon | ABC does nothing of the above | 14:38 |
| *** dafox has quit IRC | 14:38 | |
| teotwaki | basically, the rule of thumb is: If you use it as is, just set the lib as a requirement in whatever .deb/.rpm you use, and leave the dynamic linking as a requirement of the OS. | 14:38 |
| Hurrian | teotwaki, but they packaged the library in and that was that. | 14:39 |
| teotwaki | If you need to modify it, add it to your (public) repo, or a (public) repo owned by you, and publish the changes. | 14:39 |
| freemangordon | It is not the whole library, just 2 source code files, but thats irrelevant | 14:40 |
| teotwaki | then contact ABC's maintainer/dev | 14:40 |
| *** dafox has joined #maemo | 14:40 | |
| freemangordon | ivgalvez promised to do that | 14:40 |
| teotwaki | Contact the EFF. | 14:42 |

| jon_y | ok, otherwise no changes? | 14:58 |
| vi_ | none | 14:58 |
| *** dafox has joined #maemo | 14:58 | |

| jon_y | what exactly does that profile do? | 14:58 |
| vi_ | Sets the appropriate dsp clock speed for a given CPU speed. | 14:59 |
| jon_y | the clock is on demand right? | 15:00 |
| vi_ | yes | 15:00 |
| vi_ | conservative is shit and pointless. | 15:00 |

| freemangordon | packaging reasons :D | 15:06 |

| jon_y | this was with the dsp profile | 16:00 |
| freemangordon | kerio: what? | 16:00 |
| freemangordon | aah, no | 16:00 |
| *** e-yes_ has joined #maemo | 16:00 | |
| kerio | i've got "HD 16:9", "HD 4:3", "DVD 16:9", "DVD 4:3" and then the stock "High 16:9", "Fine 4:3", "Low 4:3" | 16:01 |
| freemangordon | this is wide dvd format, can't remember the exact width | 16:01 |
| jon_y | 480p I think | 16:01 |
| freemangordon | dvd 4:3 is stock "high resolution" | 16:01 |
| jon_y | 720x480! | 16:01 |
| freemangordon | yeah, exactly thet | 16:02 |
| kerio | hmm, DVD16:9 still seems too heavy for the stock dsp | 16:02 |

| ShadowJK | I/O latency is horrible on emmc, and the video recorder doesn't seem to do much caching itself | 16:14 |
| jon_y | does doing it over sshfs solve things :) | 16:14 |
| ShadowJK | MPlayer on the other hand can't encode fast enough, but caches raw video frames inside kernel until kernel goes bezerk and evertything blows up | 16:15 |
| jon_y | or netcating it over to a dedicated encoder machine | 16:15 |
| kerio | jon_y: hm, not enough throughput maybe | 16:15 |
| jon_y | sadly the n900 doesn't have an ethernet port | 16:16 |
| ShadowJK | I imagine it'd be more stable with microsd | 16:16 |
| vi_ | jon_y: USB ethernet port. | 16:16 |
| kerio | use an EyeFi :D | 16:16 |
| jon_y | not sure how usbnet compares to real ethernet | 16:16 |
| kerio | i don't know if they make uSD versions of those | 16:16 |
| vi_ | 12MB/s max. | 16:17 |
| ShadowJK | But worst case latency is still problematic with the inadequate caching :/ | 16:17 |
| vi_ | :/ | 16:17 |
| jon_y | 12MB/s only? | 16:17 |

| kerio | it's not firewire | 16:17 |
| jon_y | how much is practical? | 16:17 |
| vi_ | 60MB/s | 16:18 |
| jon_y | that's quite a bit | 16:18 |
| kerio | vi_: that's not even close to what can *actually* be done | 16:18 |

| jon_y | how is that a throughput? | 16:20 |
| ShadowJK | It is not. | 16:20 |
| jon_y | I am just wondering how fat the usbnet pipe is | 16:20 |
| vi_ | My n900 will not connect to pcsuite anymore. | 16:20 |
| jon_y | and how it compares to a 100Mbit ethernet | 16:20 |

| jon_y | vi_: ? | 16:21 |
| ShadowJK | A bit better than wifi, I've never managed to get more than about 15Mbit from wifi | 16:21 |
| jon_y | wifi sucks in a crowded apartment | 16:21 |

| freemangordon | guys, how to add a birthday to calendar? | 16:37 |
| vi_ | The G_NOKIA_READY starts some daemons. | 16:38 |
| vi_ | freemangordon: You have to set the birthday to one of your contacts. | 16:38 |

| cjdavies | I've just inherited a N900 & flashed it with flasher (see http://paste2.org/p/2468458 ) however upon rebooting there is still the old settings/contacts of the previous owner? | 17:40 |
| cjdavies | am I missing something? | 17:40 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: I believe these are stored in the optfs | 17:40 |

| Skry | FIQ: I mean, have you tried flashing kp after restoring the backup which "broke" your install? | 17:41 |
| kerio | FIQ: because the kernel needs modules :) | 17:41 |
| kerio | including, for instance, the modules to access the eMMC | 17:41 |

| FIQ | Skry: I cannot mount MyDocs from backupmenu | 17:41 |
| Skry | FIQ: and why do you need to do that? | 17:42 |
| FIQ | because the kp backup is there? | 17:42 |

I couldn't figure how a usual repair shop would refuse to do some soldering as described in detail in some phot footage. Anyway regarding your problems with flashing, I still think it's only caused by flaky USB. And no, the amber LED is no idicator of anything useful regarding USB defects whatsoever | 17:43 |
| Skry | kerio: and why not flash kp since that was what he was using anyway? | 17:43 |
| kerio | but you don't need the first combined if your system boots fine | 17:43 |
| kerio | Skry: because the current system has only the modules for the stock kernel | 17:43 |
| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: amber LED means lack of power, right? | 17:44 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: why said you should flash VANILLA twice? | 17:44 |

| FIQ | brb eat | 17:46 |
| kerio | you probably need a usb hub in the middle, to avoid problems with the enumeration | 17:46 |
| cjdavies | because it reboots automagically | 17:46 |
| kerio | cjdavies: it only reboots automagically if you tell flasher to reboot it :) | 17:46 |
| FIQ | enumeration... I hated that issue last time I reflashed n900 | 17:46 |
| kerio | don't use the -R option when you flash vanilla | 17:46 |
| FIQ | took like 20 tries with a completly fine microUSB because flasher simply refused to do it | 17:46 |
| cjdavies | kerio: ah, I'll read the man page :) | 17:46 |
| FIQ | brb eat | 17:46 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: that note on download side is rather unfortunate | 17:46 |
| * kerio thinks FIQ's usb port was already dying | 17:47 | |
| Skry | does it work at all? | 17:47 |
| FIQ | well I get feedback | 17:48 |
| cjdavies | what does the vanilla image count as in terms of flasher flags? is it a kernel image, root image, etc.? | 17:48 |
| FIQ | in the form of a steady amber light when holding it | 17:48 |
| kerio | cjdavies: fiasco image | 17:48 |
| FIQ | so it definitely responds | 17:48 |
| FIQ | no idea if it's enough though | 17:48 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: please see | 17:48 |

| Skry | duct tape to the rescue and flash :) | 17:48 |
| kerio | cjdavies: yes | 17:48 |
| kerio | you have to do them separately though | 17:48 |

| *** ZogG__ has quit IRC | 17:49 | |
| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: I told pretty much what you told me to do, and gave links | 17:49 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | it has a pretty comprehensive explanation on why you shouldn't reboot, OR need to flash COMBINED *after* VANILLA | 17:49 |
| FIQ | @ "maybe you asked for the wrong thing?" | 17:49 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: the recommended full flashing procedure is still (combined+)vanilla+combined, right? | 17:50 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | FIQ: I'd bet giving links is nothing any repair shop would handle. I'd give them printouts of the photo footage | 17:50 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: right | 17:50 |
| kerio | cjdavies: also make sure you downloaded the latest global release of the images | 17:50 |
| kerio | or, rather, the latest global COMBINED and the latest VANILLA | 17:51 |
| *** snoopy_ has joined #maemo | 17:51 | |
| cjdavies | kerio: so I'm going to do 'flasher -F <vanilla 10.2010.13-2> -f' followed by 'flasher -F <combined 20.2010.36-2> -f -R' | 17:52 |
| cjdavies | I assume I want it to reboot after combined is flashed | 17:52 |
| *** VDVsx has joined #maemo | 17:52 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: where you also could say: combined + NO_BOOT-HERE + vanilla | 17:52 |
| kerio | cjdavies: yep | 17:52 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: yeah but it's kinda weird like that | 17:52 |
| cjdavies | thanks kerio | 17:52 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: hmm, i suppose you can just flash combined with -R and then hold u | 17:53 |
| FIQ | also, whatever happens, if I succeed flashing, I'll attempt to have a working uboot install, as clearly bootupmenu isn't enough, and can't boot stuff from uSD w/o configuration before | 17:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: possibly | 17:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | never tested it | 17:53 |
| kerio | cjdavies: as soon as you're done flashing, come back here | 17:53 |
| FIQ | to simply completly get rid of having to do this with a computer (aside from transferring stuff to SD if needed) | 17:54 |
| kerio | cjdavies: we've got some good stuff for you | 17:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | anyway (combined+)vanilla+combined is always safe, no matter when or if you boot in between | 17:54 |

| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: how much is booted when you flash vanilla, btw? | 17:54 |
| cjdavies | why is flashing portable electronics always so nervewracking? | 17:55 |
| cjdavies | even though I'#ve never actually bricked anything... yet | 17:55 |
| kerio | cjdavies: the n900 is almost completely recoverable | 17:55 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: you can't brick N900 | 17:55 |
| kerio | whatever you do via software | 17:55 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | at least not by flashing it 'incorrectly' | 17:55 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: you already messed up the correct sequence, when you asked "vanilla + combined + vanilla2 which is incorrect. | 18:01 |

| *** dos1 has quit IRC | 18:02 | |
| cjdavies | or does that need doing before each command? | 18:02 |

| cjdavies | D: | 18:03 |
| cjdavies | how rude of it | 18:03 |
| kerio | indeed | 18:03 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: if you modprobe -r'd it then you evidently haven't blacklisted it, and it kicks in again during flashing | 18:03 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | boot after flashing VANILLA is irrelevant (though you need to add -R or remove battery since otherwise it doesn't return from flashing vanilla, bug in flasher rocks) | 18:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: nope | 18:10 |
| kerio | ooh, that's the problem then | 18:10 |
| kerio | i remembered something like that | 18:10 |
| cjdavies | right, lsmod reports cdc_phonet has f*cked off | 18:11 |
| cjdavies | let's try again | 18:11 |
| kerio | cjdavies: reset your n900 after flashing VANILLA | 18:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: plug in phone, lsmod|grep phonet | 18:11 |
| kerio | either with -R or by removing the battery | 18:11 |
| cjdavies | kerio: at what point is it safe to do so? | 18:11 |
| vi_ | kerio: With palis new charging stuff can I just apt-get remove bme? | 18:11 |
| cjdavies | oh, -R | 18:11 |
| FIQ | also I run arch too, and flasher insisted to modprobe cdc_phonet which messed up everything | 18:11 |
| cjdavies | but then hold u | 18:12 |
| FIQ | blacklisting it seemed to do nothing, but it turned out I just did it wrong | 18:12 |

| cjdavies | right, vanilla went in & combined is taking longer now | 18:14 |
| cjdavies | as in, a reassuring amount of time & progress bar that stuff isa ctually happenning :) | 18:14 |

| cjdavies | DocScrutinizer05: guess I'm lucky this thing is 'recoverable' | 18:15 |

| kerio | cjdavies: the n900 is pretty resilient, as long as your µusb port is still working | 18:15 |
| cjdavies | is cdc_phonet used for anything else that I might encounter, or is it just phones like the N900? | 18:15 |

| cjdavies | wonder if I should leave the blacklist there in case I ever come to flash again & forget to kill it | 18:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the link of uBoot to bootmenu is extremely unfortunate and missleading. They are completely different concepts | 18:16 |
| FIQ | kerio: hmm ok | 18:16 |
| Skry | FIQ: yeah, it does not. I have not actually flashed my device since i made uboot + cssu kernel fiasco, made life with n900 so much easier. | 18:16 |
| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: ok | 18:16 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: you probably want it blacklisted | 18:16 |

| kerio | FIQ: don't buy a n900 for 640€ :s | 18:27 |
| cjdavies | oh yeah, forgot it'll need to be rooted | 18:27 |
| kerio | buy a used one for 110€ | 18:27 |
| kerio | cjdavies: don't say that | 18:27 |
| cjdavies | I sort of assumed a phone that gives you a terminal out of the box would also give you root ;) | 18:28 |
| FIQ | well | 18:28 |
| FIQ | it's kind of simple | 18:28 |
| kerio | cjdavies: well, you can just enable rd mode from the flasher, and then "sudo gainroot" will give you a root shell | 18:28 |
| *** hazchemix has quit IRC | 18:28 | |
| FIQ | root is disabled solely for people not to break things too fast | 18:28 |
| kerio | or you can install a package from the graphical package manager | 18:28 |
| FIQ | "rooting" is just installing a package from the official repository | 18:28 |
| FIQ | and you're done | 18:28 |
| cjdavies | okay, so assuming I'm not going to do any more work today (it's half past 4 already, I've been here sine 8:30) what are my next steps - root, update, backup? | 18:28 |
| FIQ | there's several alternatives, actually :P | 18:29 |
| kerio | FIQ: maemo extras isn't *that* ufficial | 18:29 |
| cjdavies | graphical? *spit* | 18:29 |
| kerio | cjdavies: root, backup, install CSSU :) | 18:29 |
| FIQ | it isn't? | 18:29 |
| kerio | cjdavies: not only it's graphical, it's also SLOW AS SHIT | 18:29 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: you have to use the graphical one | 18:29 |
| FIQ | because you haven't root.. yet | 18:29 |
| cjdavies | ;) | 18:29 |
| cjdavies | cssu? | 18:29 |
| FIQ | while that package uses a scary method to do it | 18:29 |
| cjdavies | Christadelphian Sunday School Union | 18:29 |
| cjdavies | ... | 18:29 |
| cjdavies | ah, Community Seamless Software Update | 18:30 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: basically, open application manager, search for "rootsh" | 18:30 |
| cjdavies | right, first things first, I root, right? | 18:30 |
| vi_ | in kp51 is there some kind of...auto usb thingy going on? | 18:30 |
| FIQ | or, if you're going to have a ssh server, simply install openssh, that's enough as it enables you to login as root | 18:30 |
| kerio | cjdavies: people will suggest to use the rootsh package, but imo it's a bad idea | 18:30 |
| vi_ | I.e. how to disable host mode? | 18:30 |
| FIQ | I installed another package that made a file in /etc/sudoers.d/ (or something) which a line that enabled me to sudo as on a linux desktop | 18:31 |
| FIQ | don't remember what it was called | 18:31 |
| kerio | cjdavies: open "application manager" and go in the catalogs menu | 18:31 |
| FIQ | but I prefer that over sudo gainroot method | 18:31 |
| FIQ | to not have to login as root everytime I want to do root stuff.. | 18:31 |
| cjdavies | kerio: with you so far... checking for updates... | 18:32 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: application manager is slow, slow and slow | 18:32 |
| kerio | cjdavies: there's a "system update", but don't do it - it's not needed, you're going to install CSSU :) | 18:32 |
| cjdavies | where's my apt/pacman :( | 18:32 |
| FIQ | i only use it if it's encouraged | 18:32 |
| kerio | cjdavies: once you get a shell, there's apt | 18:32 |
| FIQ | otherwise I simply use apt | 18:32 |
| cjdavies | :D | 18:32 |
| cjdavies | so I've got a list of catalogues now | 18:33 |
| vi_ | gui package manager is just too slow. | 18:33 |
| kerio | cjdavies: in catalogs, disable ovi and maemo.org, and add the extras-devel repository | 18:33 |
| FIQ | (I prever pacman though) | 18:33 |
| FIQ | *prefer | 18:33 |
| cjdavies | done | 18:33 |
| cjdavies | then... new? | 18:33 |
| kerio | yes | 18:33 |
| FIQ | ~extras-devel | 18:33 |
| infobot | from memory, extras-devel is http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-devel | 18:33 |
| cjdavies | hang on, this is just a GUI over apt :/ | 18:33 |
| kerio | cjdavies: nah, it's worse than that :) | 18:34 |
| vi_ | cjdavies: If you were smart and enabled RD mode, you could just use vi to edit sources.list. | 18:34 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: whatever it is, it's needed no matter what as you can't "sudo gainroot" | 18:34 |
| FIQ | vi_: R&D mode is a bad idea | 18:34 |
| vi_ | FIQ: enable R&D mode. | 18:34 |
| FIQ | while it enables sudo gainroot out of the box, it does other things too | 18:34 |
| vi_ | FIQ: HORSE SHIT. | 18:34 |
| FIQ | which likes to eat battery | 18:34 |
| FIQ | that's what I've heard at least | 18:35 |
| vi_ | FIQ: BULL SHIT. | 18:35 |
| kerio | cjdavies: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free non-free | 18:35 |
| vi_ | FIQ: Enabling serial console will cause battery drainz. | 18:35 |
| cjdavies | repo added | 18:35 |
| FIQ | now wait for the loooooong update | 18:35 |
| vi_ | R&D mode will not cause you problems. | 18:35 |
| FIQ | it will take longer than last time :D | 18:35 |
| FIQ | vi_: ok | 18:35 |
| cjdavies | do I have to prompt it to update? | 18:35 |
| cjdavies | it's back at the catalogues menu | 18:35 |
| kerio | exit the catalogs menu, wait a lot of time, then install openssh | 18:35 |
| FIQ | yeah, that | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | ah | 18:36 |
| FIQ | it will force update for you | 18:36 |
| FIQ | have fun | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | aaaaaaaaaahhh | 18:36 |
| vi_ | Iti is useful for disabling watchdog, and setting bootreason:power button. | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | checking... | 18:36 |
| FIQ | ooh disabling watchdog | 18:36 |
| vi_ | WHich in turn disables act_dead mode. | 18:36 |
| FIQ | sounds neat | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | I already have a feeling this is going to be much more fun than my E6 | 18:36 |
| kerio | cjdavies: oh you have *no* idea | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | though not as much metal in my hands :( | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | I do like that about the E6 | 18:36 |
| vi_ | FIQ: My device has been in R&D mode for the last couple of months. | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | the whole thing is just a slab of metal & gorilla glass | 18:36 |
| cjdavies | pity the software is balls on it | 18:37 |
| FIQ | too bad maemo never was completly open | 18:37 |
| FIQ | would be neat to be able to simply install maemo instead of android of a random device | 18:37 |
| FIQ | (meego is possible though) | 18:38 |
| vi_ | cjdavies: If you are into linux, in about 2 weeks time you are going to declare the n900 the king of everything and start crying that there will never be a sucessor. | 18:38 |
| FIQ | seriously ... | 18:38 |
| FIQ | the phone is 3 years old, and yet nothing replaces it | 18:38 |
| FIQ | jolla MIGHT fix that though | 18:38 |
| vi_ | FIQ: Do not get your hipes up. | 18:38 |
| vi_ | your hopes either. | 18:39 |
| FIQ | :P | 18:39 |
| kerio | cjdavies: once it's done, install openssh - it'll let you configure a root password | 18:39 |
| cjdavies | I've been looking for a new phone & have been considering old things like the e52 | 18:39 |
| kerio | once you're done, open a shell and ssh root@localhost (sic!) | 18:39 |
| cjdavies | so I don't mind if it's 3 years olf | 18:39 |
| kerio | and then configure sudo | 18:39 |
| *** markinfo has quit IRC | 18:39 | |
| vi_ | kerio: That is your preferred method of getting a root shell? | 18:39 |
| vi_ | you mad? | 18:39 |
| kerio | vi_: it's the neater way | 18:39 |
| cjdavies | how the hell do you search in this package manager :/ | 18:39 |
| kerio | no, u mad bro | 18:39 |
| kerio | cjdavies: just type | 18:40 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: well, if I consider buying a new N900 for the same price, am I mad? | 18:40 |
| kerio | that's a maemoism | 18:40 |
| vi_ | unlikely my good man, I believe it is you who is mad. | 18:40 |
| kerio | also, the "close" button for dialogs is the blurred area above them | 18:40 |
| kerio | that's the second maemoism | 18:40 |
| vi_ | also: | 18:40 |
| FIQ | (same price as last time, that is, which I bought 2½ years ago) | 18:40 |
| kerio | everything else is just your usual X desktop, pretty much | 18:40 |
| vi_ | apt-get remove cherry | 18:40 |
| vi_ | RIGHT NOW. | 18:40 |
| cjdavies | FIQ: maybe not, I'll let you know in 2 weeks ;) | 18:40 |
| cjdavies | do I want openssh server or client & server? | 18:41 |
| vi_ | cjdavies: Also, make an account on TMO | 18:41 |
| FIQ | vi_: Actually, installing openssh to get root over rootsh is a good idea IMO | 18:41 |
| cjdavies | if it doesn't have the ssh executable... | 18:41 |
| FIQ | I did that for myself | 18:41 |
| vi_ | ~tm0 | 18:41 |
| infobot | [tm0] trolls, mooses and orangutans | 18:41 |
| cjdavies | vi_: tm0? | 18:41 |
| cjdavies | ... | 18:42 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: real definition is talk.maemo.org | 18:42 |
| cjdavies | ah | 18:42 |
| FIQ | but it consist of that, pretty much | 18:42 |
| cjdavies | so, client & server I want? | 18:42 |
| FIQ | Then I proceed to make a proper solution to gain root, which allowed me to do "sudo <stuff>" instead of gainroot, THEN stuff | 18:42 |
| vi_ | cjdavies: client & server | 18:42 |
| vi_ | sudo is lame. | 18:42 |
| vi_ | If you want to do root stuff, do it as root. | 18:42 |
| * cjdavies doesn't normally use sudo on anything | 18:43 | |
| kerio | sudo is actually fairly important | 18:43 |
| cjdavies | I was taught from the beginning to just type 'su' | 18:43 |
| kerio | cjdavies: su doesn't work | 18:43 |
| vi_ | SAID NO ONE EVER. | 18:43 |
| cjdavies | D: | 18:43 |
| kerio | aaaaaaaand we reach the point where you meet the horror | 18:43 |
| kerio | BEHOLD | 18:43 |
| kerio | ~messybox | 18:43 |
| infobot | messy... err busybox is meant for lean scripting. Regarding all the missing options and immanent limitations (see su, passwd) it's not really the interactive shell of choice. A lot of people hate busybox because a lot of system integrators don't understand the difference between busybox and a decent user interactive shell plus unix utils | 18:43 |
| FIQ | also | 18:43 |
| FIQ | install bash | 18:43 |
| FIQ | bash > busybox | 18:43 |
| kerio | cjdavies: the shell is busybox, which also provides a ton of commands | 18:43 |
| vi_ | Elephants > Shoes. | 18:43 |
| kerio | "su" is a symlink to busybox | 18:43 |
| kerio | as such, it can't be made suid root | 18:43 |
| kerio | so, it doesn't work | 18:44 |
| kerio | sudo is a separate binary | 18:44 |
| FIQ | kerio: wat | 18:44 |
| FIQ | that sounds stupid | 18:44 |
| kerio | that *is* stupid | 18:44 |
| FIQ | @ su symlinked to busybox | 18:44 |
| FIQ | then it doesn't even fill its' original purpose | 18:44 |
| cjdavies | 1 application successfully installed :D | 18:44 |
| kerio | cjdavies: did it prompt you for a root password? | 18:45 |
| cjdavies | yup | 18:45 |
| cjdavies | aaaaaand now it's being slow again | 18:45 |
| FIQ | anyway, when I got a new N900 (after my first one, which, believe it or not, broke by microUSB!) by warranty, I installed openssh, fixed proper sudo, installed bash, xchat, coreutils, and then went to sleep | 18:45 |
| *** calvaris has quit IRC | 18:45 | |
| cjdavies | right, so openssh installed, how does one 'fix proepr sudo'? | 18:46 |
| *** chenca has joined #maemo | 18:47 | |
| kerio | cjdavies: edit /etc/sudoers.d/cjdavies and then run update-sudoers | 18:47 |

| cjdavies | -sh: nano: not found | 18:48 |

| FIQ | I did it by making a file in a directory which IIRC is called /etc/sudoers.d/ with user ALL = (ALL) ALL, and then ran some command.. | 18:48 |
| FIQ | ah, update-sudoers | 18:48 |

| FIQ | or better yet, try ed | 18:49 |
| cjdavies | it's a fucking phone with fucking apt | 18:49 |
| kerio | cjdavies: also remember that you don't have a physical "esc" button yet | 18:49 |
| cjdavies | dayum | 18:49 |
| vi_ | You know you have full fat vim...right? | 18:49 |
| *** at1as has quit IRC | 18:49 | |
| cjdavies | no esc? HOW DOES SCREEN WORK?! | 18:49 |
| kerio | cjdavies: there's the onscreen esc, or you can just edit the xkb layout | 18:49 |
| vi_ | cjdavies: You WILL have an escape key before this IRC session is over. | 18:49 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: there should be a touch esc button on xterminal | 18:49 |
| cjdavies | ah, so there is | 18:49 |
| FIQ | but mapping it to something physical would be neat | 18:49 |

| FIQ | :p | 18:50 |
| FIQ | brb | 18:50 |
| cjdavies | right, so I'm editing a file in /etc//sudoers.d right? | 18:50 |
| kerio | cjdavies: yep | 18:50 |
| cjdavies | you said a file called cjdavies but the phone doesn't have such a user | 18:50 |
| cjdavies | right? | 18:50 |
| kerio | cjdavies: it's just a file | 18:51 |
| kerio | call it mylittlesudoers if you want | 18:51 |
| cjdavies | ah | 18:51 |
| cjdavies | okay | 18:51 |
| cjdavies | I think I actually will call it that just for lulz | 18:51 |
| kerio | your user is user | 18:51 |
| cjdavies | so what goes in mylittlesudoers, just 'user'? | 18:51 |
| kerio | cjdavies: http://fpaste.org/EpiF/ | 18:52 |
| kerio | add a password for "user" too | 18:52 |
| cjdavies | ah | 18:52 |
| kerio | ("passwd user", as root) | 18:52 |
| kerio | oh, fun fact: passwords are actually capped at 8 characters | 18:52 |
| kerio | because of the stupid old-as-shit crypt(3) | 18:52 |
| kerio | and there's no /etc/shadow support | 18:53 |
| cjdavies | pwgen spits out exactly 8 chars I think | 18:53 |
| vi_ | So it is not a salted crypt? | 18:53 |
| cjdavies | so I'm goos | 18:53 |
| kerio | vi_: it's the salted crypt(3) | 18:53 |
| kerio | aka "shit that can be cracked in a couple of hours" | 18:53 |
| cjdavies | sweet, so now I can do 'su user' && 'sudo apt-<foo>' | 18:55 |
| kerio | cjdavies: you are already user | 18:55 |
| kerio | you idiot | 18:55 |
| cjdavies | so now what, apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade && apt-get install bash? | 18:56 |
| cjdavies | ah | 18:56 |
| cjdavies | wait, I ssh'd to localhost as root | 18:56 |
| kerio | cjdavies: yep | 18:56 |

| kerio | fucking custom mediawiki installs | 19:19 |
| kerio | cjdavies: decide if you want to install cssu stable or cssu testing | 19:19 |
| cjdavies | .... just thinking, can I get urxvt on this thing? | 19:19 |
| cjdavies | that would be epic | 19:19 |
| kerio | cjdavies: i don't see why not | 19:20 |
| kerio | not sure if you noticed it, but your phone is running X11 | 19:20 |
| kerio | no urxvt in the repos, but there's mrxvt | 19:20 |
| cjdavies | I had noticed ;) | 19:20 |
| kerio | cjdavies: you have a choice to make | 19:21 |
| kerio | cssu stable is stable | 19:21 |
| kerio | stable as in debian | 19:21 |
| cjdavies | stable for now I think | 19:21 |
| cjdavies | stable as in 3 years out of date | 19:21 |
| kerio | cssu testing is a bit more updated | 19:21 |
| cjdavies | but the box this screen session is running on has 339 days uptime for a reason | 19:21 |
| kerio | cjdavies: to be honest, the n900 itself is 3 years out of date :) | 19:21 |
| cjdavies | good point | 19:22 |
| kerio | anyway, both are good choices | 19:22 |
| kerio | cssu testing has a lot of neat new features though! | 19:22 |
| cjdavies | there's no damn pipe character :/ | 19:22 |

| cjdavies | hang on a minute, wasn't I meant to be installing bash? | 19:23 |
| FIQ | IIRC, urvxt is available in repositories | 19:23 |
| kerio | cjdavies: later | 19:23 |
| cjdavies | righto | 19:23 |
| FIQ | also, pipe should be easy to map | 19:23 |
| cjdavies | anyway, toilet break :P | 19:23 |
| kerio | FIQ: W: Unable to locate package urxvt | 19:23 |
| FIQ | but yeah, you have to do it through Sym | 19:23 |
| FIQ | at the moment | 19:23 |
| FIQ | kerio: hmm ok | 19:24 |
| FIQ | maybe I was wrong | 19:24 |

| *** konelix has joined #maemo | 19:28 | |

| FIQ | I use tmux with C-a as meta instead of default C-b | 19:32 |
| FIQ | works nice on computer, works ugly on N900 | 19:32 |
| FIQ | so I crafted a new configuration file just for use on n900 :P | 19:32 |
| FIQ | (when ssh-ed into computer, that is) | 19:33 |
| FIQ | hm | 19:33 |
| FIQ | wonder when this battery is done charging.. | 19:33 |
| cjdavies | installing stable CSSU~ | 19:35 |
| cjdavies | I might even get around to putting my SIM card in later tonight | 19:35 |
| cjdavies | once I've cleaned it well... | 19:35 |
| FIQ | interesting thing regarding N900 phone functionality: version 1.0 of the firmware had a critical bug that made a certain kind of SIM completly useless | 19:37 |
| cjdavies | I have to say I don't like where the USB socket is though | 19:37 |
| FIQ | I had that kind of SIM | 19:37 |
| cjdavies | D: | 19:37 |
| FIQ | while my first N900 came with 1.1 in stock, my second didn't | 19:37 |
| FIQ | so had to fix everything through wifi | 19:37 |
| FIQ | luckily N900 works just fine without sim, unlike some other phones... | 19:37 |
| kerio | cjdavies: you said you know your way around a soldering gun, right? | 19:37 |
| cjdavies | ... | 19:38 |
| cjdavies | franken900 | 19:38 |
| kerio | no, i mean | 19:38 |
| kerio | the microusb port breaks *really* easily | 19:38 |
| FIQ | I can confirm that | 19:38 |
| kerio | especially if you start moving it around while it's plugged | 19:38 |
| cjdavies | the guy who owned it before me certainly wasn't careful with it | 19:39 |
| cjdavies | so hopefully this is a strong one ;) | 19:39 |
| cjdavies | either that or it's on the edge of breaking | 19:39 |
| FIQ | my suggestion would just be "don't use it unless you must", but I can't do soldering like you | 19:40 |
| Skry | mine has just started to feel like it's about to break, and I've not been that gentle with it, bought it in 2009 | 19:40 |

| kerio | i've been told it's fairly easy to fix | 19:41 |
| cjdavies | doesn't have an old-fashioned charging socket does it? :( | 19:41 |
| cjdavies | E6 has both | 19:41 |
| kerio | cjdavies: nope | 19:41 |
| cjdavies | presumably because businesspeople upgrading from E72 wanted to reuse all their car chargers & whatnot | 19:41 |
| cjdavies | slow application manger is slow | 19:42 |
| kerio | fun fact: if you get into the situation where the battery is below a certain threshold, and you can't boot, you're hosed | 19:42 |
| cjdavies | ?? | 19:42 |
| kerio | NOLO (the bootloader) requires the battery to be charged a fair amount before allowing you to flash | 19:43 |
| cjdavies | right, app manager has the CSSU package but also some libqtm stuff - do I want to do them all, or hold off on the libqtm until after CSSU is in? | 19:43 |
| kerio | but to charge, you need to boot the system | 19:43 |
| cjdavies | but one can just charge the battery, no? | 19:43 |
| kerio | there's an emergency charge, but it only charges enough to boot properly | 19:43 |
| cjdavies | oh | 19:43 |
| kerio | so... lol | 19:43 |
| cjdavies | interesting... | 19:43 |
| cjdavies | can always buy a new battery & hope it comes charged | 19:43 |

| kerio | it's just... not worth it | 20:00 |
| kerio | opera mobile is kinda neat | 20:00 |
| Skry | as an opposite view, I would install cssu-thumb immediately because it is worth it :) | 20:01 |
| kerio | cjdavies: if you want something that resembles a linux desktop even more, install easy debian | 20:01 |
| amospalla | kerio: you made me install cssu-thumb :( | 20:02 |
| kerio | amospalla: MWAHAHAHAHAHA | 20:02 |

| cjdavies | also, no urxvt in the repos :( | 20:03 |
| cjdavies | there is mrxvt but I have no idea how related the two are# | 20:03 |
| kerio | cjdavies: chsh, once you're sure that /bin/bash4 is in /etc/shells | 20:03 |
| cjdavies | /bin/bash4 is the only thing in /etc/shells | 20:04 |
| *** florian has quit IRC | 20:04 | |

| cjdavies | 'You may not change the shell for user' :/ | 20:06 |
| cjdavies | but I asked politely :( | 20:06 |

| kerio | that makes no sense | 20:06 |
| kerio | cjdavies: just "chsh" maybe | 20:06 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | it created bootloops | 20:16 |
| kerio | cjdavies: it causes problems if the shell of your choosing is not in /etc/shells | 20:16 |

| cjdavies | don't think so | 20:23 |
| cjdavies | Nokia logo comes up for a while, then it turns off | 20:23 |

| kerio | hahaha, your backup is from before cssu | 20:24 |
| cjdavies | yup :( | 20:24 |

| cjdavies | yup | 20:25 |
| kerio | hahaha, dist-upgrade here wants to install debianutils and remove EVERYTHING ELSE | 20:25 |
| cjdavies | it's all a learning experience | 20:25 |
| cjdavies | I kinda thought something was going wrong when it started spouting removing for EVERY SIGNLE FRACKING PACKAGE | 20:25 |
| vi____ | cjdavies: Learn to use flasher first, realise how trivial it is and you will be fine. | 20:25 |
| cjdavies | right, combined going back in | 20:25 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: once you got stuff booted up again, install BM from HAM (enable extras-devel for that), then restore your backup | 20:30 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | install CSSU-T and do a BM backup after that | 20:42 |
| *** ZogG__ has quit IRC | 20:42 | |

| DocScrutinizer05 | not the other way though | 20:44 |
| FIQ | oh.. it was just the fact that I had silent on when I made the backupmenu backup :P | 20:44 |
| FIQ | (optfs still there etc) | 20:44 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | LOL | 20:44 |
| cjdavies | ... | 20:44 |
| FIQ | no no, that's not why i restored | 20:44 |
| FIQ | I didn't have silent on when I restored :P | 20:44 |
| FIQ | but my backup had it | 20:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | that's how I understood your comment | 20:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | see how good BM restore works? | 20:45 |
| FIQ | hmm, still no sound | 20:46 |
| FIQ | let's go and find some music to test | 20:46 |
| cjdavies | :/ | 20:47 |
| kerio | cjdavies: what? | 20:47 |
| cjdavies | 'operation failed' when I tru to CSSU after restore | 20:47 |
| FIQ | ok DocScrutinizer05, I'm back from the beginning pretty much | 20:48 |
| FIQ | Speaker issue still seems present | 20:48 |
| FIQ | headset work, speakers don't | 20:48 |
| FIQ | If the speakers are truly broken, I'll use my N900 as a N810, pretty much | 20:48 |
| FIQ | as N900 doesn't allow me to do calls with headset due to... yes, why? | 20:49 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | FIQ: play-sound $some-wav | 20:49 |
| FIQ | i'll try | 20:49 |
| FIQ | ehm | 20:49 |
| cjdavies | HAM doesn't seem to want to work at all | 20:49 |
| FIQ | is there any .wav files in n900 somewhere? :D | 20:49 |
| FIQ | cjdavies: HAM is not likable | 20:49 |
| cjdavies | even ignoring CSSU, if I reboot & then open HAM it says 'operation failed' | 20:49 |
| FIQ | at all | 20:49 |

| *** Hurrian has quit IRC | 20:52 | |
| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: Still nothing | 20:52 |

| FIQ | amospalla: This is a clean rootfs | 20:52 |
| kerio | cjdavies: well, we're always here | 20:53 |
| cjdavies | DocScrutinizer05: I restored from my backup using backupmenu, which was to a state just before installing CSSU-s the first time, but the restored state seems to have a non-functional HAM | 20:53 |
| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: it says successful in terminal though | 20:53 |
| cjdavies | I'm going to try restoring once again then I'm going to head home & eat something | 20:53 |
| FIQ | but I heard nothing | 20:53 |
| FIQ | "vol -0.0000000" | 20:53 |
| FIQ | sounds like it's playing it silent? | 20:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cjdavies: seems odd | 20:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I can't see how restoring a working state via BM would cause HAM to break | 20:54 |
| cjdavies | I don't understand either | 20:54 |
| cjdavies | hence the trying again | 20:54 |
| cjdavies | then the taking a break | 20:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you're probably better off not restoring but rather redo stuff | 20:55 |
| cjdavies | well in theory the backup should be fine | 20:56 |
| cjdavies | but if HAM still doesn't work I will just start again | 20:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | though HAM allegedly "broken" doesn't sound right. Probably it's just usual slow | 20:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | taking minutes untl screen update | 20:56 |
| freemangordon | cjdavies: it needs some time, give it | 20:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | tbh I never seen a HAM 'broken' any more than usual | 20:57 |
| cjdavies | I shall restore, reboot, then leave it as I walk home | 20:57 |

| FIQ | ty | 20:58 |
| cjdavies | right home time, catch you guys later | 20:58 |
| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: microUSB is most likely more broken now than before, but it's still not completly broken! | 20:59 |
| FIQ | so in case i have to go through this madness AGAIN, I can still (theoretically) get a repair | 20:59 |
| FIQ | also HAM is unusually slow today... | 21:00 |
| FIQ | oh, there we go, forget what I said | 21:00 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | FIQ: if your speakers don't work on a virgin *full* flash (combined and vanilla) then you're outa luck - they're broken | 21:00 |
| FIQ | well, I didn't restore optfs to factory state, but to a state which is very close to factory state (few hours after it) and before they broke | 21:01 |
| FIQ | and, that's too bad :/ | 21:01 |
| FIQ | but at least my n900 is usable! | 21:01 |
| FIQ | that's a GREAT plus | 21:01 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I'd still reflash to virgin vanilla | 21:01 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | not strange | 21:03 |
| freemangordon | *that | 21:03 |

| *** eMHa has joined #maemo | 21:04 | |
| FIQ | well I can't see any reason that they should break like this.. :p | 21:04 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | if some weird profile manager messed up your settings, or something nuked your policies fubar, there's no way than reflashing to recover | 21:05 |
| FIQ | hmmmm | 21:05 |
| FIQ | but my device boots | 21:05 |
| freemangordon | FIQ: yeah, you'd better reflash, you don;t know what else is broken | 21:05 |
| FIQ | shouldn't I be able to fix it on device? | 21:05 |
| FIQ | because I'd rather not mess with my USB more than to make the device bootable | 21:06 |
| FIQ | (which it is currently) | 21:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | everything is fixable on device, once you tracked down the root culprit | 21:06 |
| freemangordon | if you find when the problem is, yes. But again, you don't know what else is broken | 21:06 |
| freemangordon | *where | 21:06 |
| *** sirdancealot2a has quit IRC | 21:06 | |

| DocScrutinizer05 | you could start with nuking your ~ | 21:06 |

| FIQ | yeah I know | 21:08 |
| FIQ | but I don't have a better place, do I? :p | 21:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so your "backup" is void | 21:09 |
| FIQ | hmm I suppose | 21:09 |
| freemangordon | "/opt" | 21:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | mv /home/user /home/user_away | 21:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | don't blame me if you can't boot after that | 21:09 |
| freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: mydocs is mounted there | 21:10 |
| FIQ | *blames everything on DocScrutinizer05* | 21:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | indeed | 21:10 |
| mad_dev | FIQ: I have a similar issue on my macbook(Ubuntu). If the jack was plugged and I booted off. Next boot will disable my speakers. I have to reboot with the jack plugged in, then unplug for the speakers to work. | 21:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | (MyDocs mounted) doesn't stop a rename of /home/user though | 21:10 |
| freemangordon | FIQ: btw did you check the volume when on speakers? | 21:11 |
| FIQ | yes frals | 21:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | just makes system 'miss' MyDocs on next boot | 21:11 |
| FIQ | *freemangordon | 21:11 |
| freemangordon | ok | 21:11 |
| FIQ | oh, also, I hope wiping .* doesn't make the device unbootable | 21:11 |
| FIQ | that wouldn't make any sense for me anyway | 21:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I might provide a virgin /home/user | 21:12 |
| FIQ | it's just userland configs after all | 21:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or not, since there's already my wlan config in there | 21:12 |
| FIQ | you can always remove them.. :p | 21:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | not really since they're stored in gconf | 21:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | seriously, I suggest full reflash | 21:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | only sane way to tell if device hw is ok or not | 21:14 |
| vi___ | full reflash is usually always the best way. | 21:14 |
| FIQ | can I do a vanilla reflash on device? :3 | 21:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hmm, I already though | 21:15 |

| FIQ | (I don't know what it does, just that there's something called rescueOS) | 21:17 |

| *** timo^ has quit IRC | 22:02 | |
| kerio | hm | 22:02 |
| kerio | i *could* make a backup and then reflash and do all that jazz | 22:03 |
| kerio | but i don't *want* to | 22:03 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | qwazix: not much we could do beyond what's already been done | 22:03 |
| FIQ | flashing is possible, but I'd rather not.. don't want to do more than absolutely neccessary, especially not as speakers actually might be hw issue | 22:03 |
| FIQ | *necessary | 22:04 |
| FIQ | so I'll go the route DocScrutinizer05 suggested, no matter whether speakers are fixed magically or not | 22:04 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: restoring a full backup made right after a pr1.3 reflash is the closest he can get to a mint condition | 22:04 |
| FIQ | as a N900 with broken USB is kind of crippled | 22:04 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: yep | 22:04 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but to make that backup you need to install BM | 22:04 |
| FIQ | kerio: I think I have such backup... | 22:05 |
| FIQ | And I think it's the one I'm on right now | 22:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | to install BM i'd have to hop a few hoops | 22:05 |
| FIQ | but i'm not sure about that | 22:05 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: just use your 4th n900 | 22:05 |
| qwazix | Speakers must be cheap to replace aren't they? | 22:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 22:05 |

| * qwazix thinks should start stocking replacement N900 parts too despite the lucky streak | 22:06 | |

| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: i'll check | 22:07 |

| qwazix | what wizardry does that do? Do we know? Does maemo keep a copy of the rootfs somewhere? | 22:08 |
| FIQ | huh | 22:08 |
| FIQ | IIRC "Phone" in settings handles more than SIM stuff? | 22:08 |
| FIQ | like network calc, etc | 22:08 |
| FIQ | anyways it's unavailable w/o SIM for some weird reason | 22:08 |
| kerio | FIQ: nah, it only deals with sim stuff | 22:09 |
| FIQ | hm ok | 22:09 |
| kerio | and with things that are useless without a sim | 22:09 |
| FIQ | i remember wrong then | 22:09 |
| kerio | like the dataplan counters | 22:09 |

| *** sasquatch has joined #maemo | 22:09 | |
| FIQ | hmmmm | 22:10 |
| FIQ | let's see | 22:10 |
| FIQ | what did I do last reflash | 22:10 |
| FIQ | installed bash, proper sudo, ssh, bootmenu, backupmenu.. then a backup | 22:10 |
| FIQ | that means the backup should be in stock kernel | 22:10 |
| kerio | FIQ: it's easy to check | 22:10 |
| FIQ | oh it is? neat | 22:10 |
| FIQ | how? | 22:10 |
| kerio | list the contents of rootfs and see what's the directory inside /lib/modules | 22:11 |
| FIQ | ehm | 22:11 |
| FIQ | what's BM backups named? | 22:11 |
| FIQ | and where are they? | 22:11 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | settings menu | 22:12 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | "restore default config" | 22:12 |
| FIQ | yes I see it | 22:12 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | afaik it restores a default ~user/ | 22:12 |
| FIQ | uh | 22:13 |
| FIQ | it needs some kind of code... | 22:13 |
| * FIQ has no idea what it is | 22:13 | |
| FIQ | what's N900's "lock code"? :p | 22:14 |
| FIQ | default, that is | 22:14 |
| FIQ | i haven't changed it so... never knew it existed | 22:14 |
| FIQ | ah | 22:14 |
| FIQ | 12345 | 22:15 |
| Cor-Ai | i think its 54321 or 12345 | 22:15 |
| Cor-Ai | bah :P | 22:15 |
| FIQ | ??? | 22:15 |
| FIQ | it completly contradicted itself | 22:15 |

| FIQ | wasn't it supposed to be announced next week? | 22:17 |
| kerio | why do we need a watchdog? :( | 22:17 |
| FIQ | there's an "Empty device" too | 22:17 |
| FIQ | guess it resets the mydocs partition or something like that | 22:18 |
| freemangordon | Pali: LOL. So if it has HW keyboard we can port Maemo on it. Great :P | 22:18 |
| Pali | 2012-09-10 somebody from @jollamobile.com sent patch for twl4030_wdt watchdog driver which is for omap3/4 | 22:18 |
| FIQ | wat | 22:18 |
| FIQ | hardware keyboard, and it runs meego? | 22:18 |
| SpeedEvil | if I was Jolla, I would totally put in some patches for MCA architecture PPC machines. | 22:18 |
| FIQ | sounds as a possible successor to my current phone | 22:18 |
| freemangordon | FIQ: ever used capacitive screen? | 22:18 |
| SpeedEvil | twl4030 is the powermanagment chip in the n900 | 22:19 |
| FIQ | yeah, they're very annoying | 22:19 |
| Pali | btw, see date! from september | 22:19 |
| FIQ | but the two major things for me is keyboard and proper OS | 22:19 |
| SpeedEvil | it's possible they are using the n900 as a dev platform | 22:19 |
| Pali | SpeedEvil, where they got needed HW? | 22:19 |
| FIQ | resistive touch screen is the third thing that I want, but it's possible to skip for me | 22:19 |
| Pali | nokia not creating new n900 hw | 22:19 |
| SpeedEvil | n900s | 22:20 |
| SpeedEvil | no, I don't mean new | 22:20 |
| FIQ | Pali: a company here still sells new N900s :D | 22:20 |
| FIQ | so they're definitely still around | 22:20 |
| Pali | FIQ, new N900? | 22:20 |
| Pali | where? | 22:20 |
| FIQ | yes | 22:20 |
| FIQ | sec | 22:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | whereß | 22:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ?? | 22:20 |
| FIQ | swedish site though | 22:20 |
| FIQ | and oplocked | 22:20 |
| FIQ | but available | 22:20 |
| FIQ | http://www.phonehouse.se/Mobiltelefoner/Nokia/Nokia-N900-Trelast | 22:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | not selling EU wide I guess | 22:21 |
| FIQ | so they *are* around, but I guess they're few | 22:21 |
| Pali | can you convert that price 5499 to $ or € ? | 22:21 |
| SpeedEvil | I vaguely recall the twl4030 is only used for the omap as found in the n900. | 22:21 |
| FIQ | Pali: 640 | 22:21 |
| FIQ | € | 22:21 |
| SpeedEvil | the fastest speed grade is720MHz | 22:21 |
| FIQ | it's very high, but that's the launch price | 22:21 |
| *** ale152 has quit IRC | 22:21 | |

| *** Sc0rpius has quit IRC | 22:21 | |
| Pali | 640€? you are funny :-) | 22:22 |
| FIQ | but, it's there :P | 22:22 |
| FIQ | my point wasn't that it's worth it, my point was that new N900s are still around :P | 22:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I guess it will stay there, at that pricetag | 22:22 |
| FIQ | also Pali I paid 640€ for my N900 2½ years ago | 22:22 |

| FIQ | They sell new phones, plus N900 | 22:24 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | FIQ: I have problems with >> Lagerstatus web: svart<< and >>Få i lager<< and >>Ej i lager<< | 22:25 |

| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: it's available on the web, but there's few left | 22:25 |
| freemangordon | Pali: that's good. Against what kernel version are patches? | 22:25 |
| FIQ | and unavailable in shops | 22:25 |
| freemangordon | 2.6.32? | 22:25 |
| Pali | mainline of cource | 22:25 |
| FIQ | (non-web shops, that is) | 22:25 |
| Pali | 3.7 we have now? | 22:25 |
| freemangordon | Pali: mainline as omap? | 22:25 |
| freemangordon | against 3.7? | 22:25 |

| freemangordon | ok, you are the upstream kernel dev here :P | 22:26 |
| FIQ | DocScrutinizer05: "Stock status web (black) - Few in stock" | 22:26 |
| Pali | I think for a long time | 22:26 |
| FIQ | is what that means pretty much | 22:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you'll hardly find *any* embedded device running proper on mainline | 22:26 |
| freemangordon | ok, didn't check for a long time | 22:27 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | the WUT? | 22:27 |
| FIQ | afk | 22:27 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | omap2430?? | 22:27 |
| freemangordon | Pali: well, that's expected | 22:27 |
| Pali | DocScrutinizer05, yes | 22:28 |
| freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: the diver name is that | 22:28 |

| freemangordon | there is | 22:28 |
| freemangordon | so? | 22:28 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | given the abominations I've seen in omap3430 musb_hdrc driver... hardly | 22:29 |

| kerio | maybe they'll release something that will be the proper successor to the n900! | 22:31 |
| freemangordon | I don't believe the same guys will produce something drastically different | 22:31 |
| kerio | and it's going to be awesome! | 22:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: they already produced N900 successor, mind you | 22:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and anything they're going to produce now is likely a successor of N9 | 22:32 |
| freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: you mean n950? | 22:32 |
| *** Hurrian__ has quit IRC | 22:32 | |
| freemangordon | the n900 successor that is | 22:32 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: that locked-down piece of crap? nope | 22:32 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: that locked down piece of crap is what Nokia aka maemo-devision came up with | 22:33 |
| freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: if n950 is jollas vision of n900 replacement... I am speachless | 22:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you honestly expect them to step back from what they already achieved (though I admit a lot of Nokias were unhappy about Aegis as well) | 22:34 |
| Pali | who invented aegis? | 22:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | basically Nokia | 22:34 |
| *** BigBoxDr_ has quit IRC | 22:34 | |
| Pali | meego devs? nokia managers? | 22:35 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | though, some contractor | 22:35 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: they could rerelease the n900 with better specs and i'd buy it on day one | 22:35 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: we discussed that several times | 22:35 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but they could release something with a OMAP4630 or sth, and place fremantle++ on it, given somebody was smart enough to keep his private copy of the sources | 22:36 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but that would mean they outright admit that all this QML stuff was a deadend idea | 22:37 |
| kerio | it fucking is! | 22:38 |
| *** _rd has joined #maemo | 22:38 | |

| *** lizardo has quit IRC | 22:58 | |

| DocScrutinizer05 | touch each volume setting | 23:04 |
| FIQ | set everything to max, set system sounds, keysound and everything else | 23:04 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | good question | 23:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | X-Fade: ? | 23:05 |
| FIQ | seems to do nothing | 23:05 |
| Pali | I'd like to see option for refusing html only messages | 23:05 |
| FIQ | nothing at all | 23:05 |
| FIQ | and this is pretty much factory settings | 23:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | FIQ: actually selecting a new ringtone already should play the new ringtone before you even clicked "OK" | 23:05 |
| FIQ | and, sound worked on this when I made the backup :p | 23:05 |
| FIQ | yeah | 23:06 |
| FIQ | I know that | 23:06 |
| *** jhb has quit IRC | 23:06 | |
| FIQ | tried it | 23:06 |
| FIQ | no sound | 23:06 |
| Pali | I really HATE if somebody sent big HTML message to mailinglist!!! | 23:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | then your hw is defect | 23:06 |
| FIQ | wait, I'll try with headset just to see | 23:06 |
| FIQ | yeah, there's sound then | 23:06 |
| FIQ | so it's the hw | 23:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | does the headset icon show up when plugged in and vanish when unplugged? | 23:07 |
| FIQ | yes | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | then speakers or amp are defect I'd guess | 23:07 |
| FIQ | hmm, is there a way to make you able to listen on calls with headset? | 23:07 |
| FIQ | I *very rarely* call/take calls, so I haven't messed around with settings for that | 23:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | works OOTB | 23:08 |
| FIQ | but my experience is that it doesn't work | 23:08 |
| FIQ | first at all, ringtune plays on speaker (assuming they work), and calls are all through speaker | 23:08 |
| FIQ | s/first at all, // | 23:08 |
| infobot | FIQ meant: ringtune plays on speaker (assuming they work), and calls are all through speaker | 23:08 |
| FIQ | never fiddled around with it too much | 23:08 |
| FIQ | but I'm considering whether to use this as primary phone, or a N810 in terms of phone functionality | 23:09 |

| *** janemba has quit IRC | 23:11 | |
| FIQ | ok, so my issue is hw, I guess I can go and find a repair shop to fix a) usb, b) speakers | 23:12 |
| FIQ | or, try to, at least | 23:12 |
| FIQ | ...assuming they aren't completly easy to replace even w/o experience? | 23:12 |
| FIQ | @ DocScrutinizer05 | 23:13 |
| FIQ | until then, I'll use N900 as a N810 | 23:14 |
| Pali | DocScrutinizer05, mailinglist admin is ferenc | 23:17 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | FIQ: speakers are fairly simple to replace | 23:19 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hardly anything simpler to be found | 23:19 |
| *** ale152 has quit IRC | 23:20 | |
| FIQ | you mean even I could do it? | 23:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yes | 23:20 |
| FIQ | I have sight problems and major problems with small details | 23:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hmm, then maybe you have problems to remove screw | 23:20 |
| FIQ | still possible? :p | 23:20 |
| FIQ | "maybe" well, I suppose it's worth a try, either for myself or requesting someone in my family that do see good for help :p | 23:21 |
| FIQ | if it's that easy | 23:21 |
| FIQ | ...can you mess up something? | 23:21 |
| *** shanttu has quit IRC | 23:21 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | take care of flat cable between screen and kbd half | 23:22 |
| vi___ | FIQ: no but the flat ribbon cable can be a bit fiddly to get back together. | 23:22 |
| FIQ | (assuming you don't do idiotic stuff like hammering the internal or anything like that) | 23:22 |
| vi___ | cd .. | 23:22 |
| FIQ | vi___: hmm I don't know anything about it | 23:22 |
| vi___ | dpkf -l | 23:22 |

| FIQ | "hidden" | 23:26 |

| FIQ | ah | 23:26 |

| FIQ | (no, i'm not lazy! what do you get that from?) | 23:27 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sure, since this chan is logged | 23:27 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so web spiders would eventually pick up the URL | 23:28 |
| FIQ | ok | 23:28 |
| Luke-Jr | lol | 23:28 |
| FIQ | *directlinks it* | 23:28 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | it'll vanish as soon as you do | 23:29 |
| Cor-Ai | damn all this talk about the n900 almost makes me wana take my thumb out and reattach my usb :D | 23:29 |
| FIQ | Cor-Ai: no microUSB? | 23:29 |
| *** eijk has joined #maemo | 23:30 | |

| DocScrutinizer05 | FIQ: in L1_2 in pic17 the silver thing under blue stylus tip is one of the speakers | 23:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | in pic18 next to green arrow is the other one | 23:32 |

| *** janemba has quit IRC | 23:37 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you shouldn't worry too much about the "dispose screws and use new ones" though it would be nice if you could follow this advice | 23:39 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | anyway use proper tools | 23:39 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | otherwise you for sure will ruin the screws | 23:39 |
| *** _rd has joined #maemo | 23:40 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I.E use a decent Phillips 00 size screwdriver, and a Torx+ T6 | 23:41 |
| *** Pali has quit IRC | 23:41 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | instead of this blue stylus thingie you usually cna use fingernails or a credit card | 23:42 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | plectrum | 23:42 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | andthing flat and not sharp | 23:42 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | any* | 23:43 |
| deepy\SIGSEGV | Nails aren't sharp? | 23:43 |
| deepy\SIGSEGV | Must be difficult building houses in your country! | 23:43 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | nails? who talked about nails? | 23:43 |
| *** janemba has joined #maemo | 23:44 | |
| deepy\SIGSEGV | My eagerness to make a joke made my brain skip the 'finger' part of 'fingernails' | 23:45 |
