FIQis there anything available that allows me to customize the icons at the top? like removing stuff I don't need to know etc00:21
tadzikicons at the top?00:21
FIQ(mostly the "no SIM" icon)00:21
*** _rd has quit IRC00:22
FIQalternatively hack it away using a transparent image :D00:22
RiD^yes00:22
FIQwell custom themes allows they to change00:23
FIQso if it's impossible to do properly...00:23
FIQthen at least replacing with a transparent image would work, no?00:23
RiDcustom themes allow them to change?00:24
FIQI believe so?00:24
RiDyou mean changing the image, or hiding the icon? (as in truthfully hiding it, not transparent image)00:24
FIQthey don't?00:24
RiDbecause sure, you can change the image00:24
FIQyeah i know00:25
FIQbut can I hide it properly?00:25
*** sirdancealot2a has joined #maemo00:25
RiDNow that's a question I can't answer :P00:25
FIQbecause I already know that I have no SIM, and wont place any inside anytime soon00:26

DocScrutinizer05FIQ: you can change a lot of those icons and decide to remove them. Not though for the phone icon afaik (noSIM, Network-2G/3G)00:54
*** Sc0rpius has joined #maemo00:54
DocScrutinizer05it's the one icon that has hardcoded location and this can't get removed iirc00:54

FIQ...01:56
FIQturns out it was just another process (not a child of hildon-desktop as I thought) but commenting it away just made it appear last lol01:57

cjdaviesis there any danger in trying to empty the N900 battery to give it a nice big charge the next time?02:19
cjdavieseg, run it until the phone literally turns off02:19
cjdaviesby cat'ing /dev/urandom or something to hammer the CPU02:20

*** Sc0rpius has joined #maemo02:44
DocScrutinizer05FIQ: yep, it's a bitch. If you dare to mess up numbering sequence (sparse voids) or otherwise do sth that's not looking 'nice' to the systemui-statusbar-foo-whatever, the results are at best surprising02:45
*** Sc0rpius has quit IRC02:46
FIQcjdavies: if you for some reason want to empty it for real, vanilla maemo isn't enough as it turns n900 off when battery is at critical level02:47
FIQbut then I believe n900 wont charge it02:48
*** Sc0rpius has joined #maemo02:49
DocScrutinizer05cjdavies: see my bq27k-calibrate shellscript02:49
DocScrutinizer05cjdavies: but basically nope, there's no danger in discharging N900 until it shuts down (since that's been your original question)02:50
FIQDocScrutinizer05: getting battery to show percent needs calibration, doesn't it?02:50
DocScrutinizer05FIQ: with Pali's new stuff yes02:50
DocScrutinizer05he relies on bq2720002:51
DocScrutinizer05usual classical bme doesn't02:51
Drathirhi all... i have small question where i can find leatest repos address and new not expired keys?02:51
FIQI suppose calibration doesn't work in practice if you use 2 batteries?02:51
FIQ(assuming they don't work identical)02:51
DocScrutinizer05yes, swapping batteries is a big partypooper for calibration02:51
*** sirdancealot2a has joined #maemo02:52
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: hi02:52
FIQthen I guess I'll be unable to get battery to show percent02:52
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: new keys are hardly found anywhere02:52
FIQ(well I would anyway as I believe calibration needs you to charge the device...)02:52
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: just ignore the warnings02:52
*** robbiethe1st has joined #maemo02:52
*** guampa has quit IRC02:53
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: what's been your other question?02:53
DocScrutinizer05latest repo? what does that mean?02:53
*** guampa has joined #maemo02:54
Drathirlooking for latest nokia n900 repsitory too02:54
FIQum02:54
DocScrutinizer05there are basically 3 repos: extras, extras-testing, extras-devel02:54
FIQwhy would you ever switch it?02:54
Drathirbut correc mem if i wrong if keys expiret that repository dont upgrade?02:55
DocScrutinizer05for 'leet new' stuff you want extras-devel02:55
DocScrutinizer05nope, HAM doesn't care, just throws warnings02:55
DocScrutinizer05actually apt does02:55
FIQDrathir: sounds like symbian policy02:55
FIQrefuse install in case there's no or missing cert02:55
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: please elaborate on what you're planning to do02:56
DrathirFIQ: not really switch i thinking this repository changed some time or all time be the same?02:56
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: stuff on maemo might not always be like you expect it to02:56
FIQDocScrutinizer05: does HAM even say anything about it?02:56
DocScrutinizer05actually nope02:57
DocScrutinizer05apt-get update does02:57
*** Smily has joined #maemo02:57
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: for example, apt-get dist-upgrade is an absolute NOGO02:57
DocScrutinizer05that's why I ask what you plan to do02:58
*** otep has quit IRC02:58
Drathiri just have new n900 andi think to refresh becase i think earlier user dont change anything when buy it and that be sme time ago...02:58
FIQalso I don't get what HAM tries to tell me if it gives a "(null)" warning right before an install02:58
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: see02:58

DocScrutinizer05~cssu02:58
infoboti guess cssu is http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU02:58
DocScrutinizer05you shall be pretty up to date and happy after that02:59
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: btw, welcome on board! :-D02:59
DrathirDocScrutinizer05: thanks a lot also look there...03:00
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: don't get scared by occasional bickering, stay with us and you'll have a good time, if you love linux03:00
DrathirDocScrutinizer05: welcome all too03:01
*** Guest32123 has quit IRC03:01
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: again, since it seems you're a newbe. You should give your N900 a full reflash, to eradicate any remnants of previous owner. Check http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware for that, come here if any problems. Then after you succeeded, you probbaly wanna come here asking what to do next03:03
Drathiri planning take from n900 all what can do 4me and starting to looking for differences with real pc linux... first experience is amazing for me but mark thats is clean untouched... i scare what can do with optimised and tweaked n900...03:04
*** Sc0rpius has quit IRC03:04
*** mad_dev has joined #maemo03:05
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: a) don't feel scared, you can't "brick" N900 (well you can, if you know the very special magic spell, but that won't happen by accident)03:05
Drathiryes i love linux but if i good hear is a little chance to totally kill n900 but i dont know it is true or not...03:05
Drathirok is true ^^03:06
DocScrutinizer05b) maemo probably has some surprises for you, if you're used to 'standard' linux03:06
*** kolp has quit IRC03:06
DocScrutinizer05so better come here and ask before you do anything you *think* should work, like apt-get dist-upgrade03:07
FIQDrathir: killing N900 is not easy to do through firmware03:08
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: read ~flash carefully, it has a lot of info03:08
DocScrutinizer05when you've finished, re-read03:08
DocScrutinizer05*all*03:08
FIQassuming you don't bring a hammer or anything non-firmware, you simply can't kill it unless you try really hard03:08
DocScrutinizer05once you've read ~flashing, come here to ask how to proceed. we're basically a nicew bunch here, always happy to welcome newbies03:10
Drathirim not very pro but in past using ubuntu,debian and the latest include now using archlinux... and when i thinking that i have linux in pocket that is nice...03:10
DocScrutinizer05that's the spirit :-)03:10
DocScrutinizer05go read ~flash03:10
DocScrutinizer05~flash03:10
infobotfrom memory, maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware03:10
DrathirDocScrutinizer05: ok i will not do dist-upgrade03:11
FIQtbh n900 is what got me into linux for real, I hadn't really played around with it much before03:11
DocScrutinizer05then set up your linux PC for flashing your N900 and come here again03:11
mad_devgeneral q: how often should i reboot, in terms of uptime?03:12
DocScrutinizer05here's always at least a dozen experienced users happy to guide a newbie thru first steps :-)03:12
DocScrutinizer05mad_dev: my t900 has an uptime of...03:13
FIQmad_dev: you don't need to reboot just to reboot03:13
DocScrutinizer05t900:~# uptime03:13
DocScrutinizer05 02:26:36 up 23 days,  4:15, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.0003:13
DocScrutinizer05duh!!!03:13
DocScrutinizer05it been like 190 days before03:13
mad_devwow03:13
DrathirDocScrutinizer05: is possible that i have latest firmvare onboard than site show?03:13
FIQmy n900's uptime rarely exceeds a few hours nowdays, but when microusb worked, it was usually on for a few weeks before reboots :p03:14
FIQ*between03:14
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: please rephrase03:14
mad_devFIQ: does it slow down?03:15
FIQmad_dev: I believe there is a footprint of having it on a long time, but it's minimal03:15
FIQand not noticeable03:15
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: no matter what's your current firmware version, you *want* to do a full reflash (combined & vanilla) on a freshly purchased N90003:15
*** otep has joined #maemo03:16
*** Sc0rpius has joined #maemo03:16
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: you also want to learn how to do reflash, since you shouldn't be afraid to do that, and have done it before so you know it's easy03:16
FIQtakes less than one minute once you're used to it03:17
DocScrutinizer05yep03:17
DocScrutinizer05it's really painless03:17
DocScrutinizer05so read03:18
DocScrutinizer05~flash03:18
infobotwell, maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware03:18
DocScrutinizer05and get used to it, so you know what you don't nneed to do biut always *could* do03:18
mad_devremember to hold U....it got me the first time.03:18
FIQ(and if you actually keep the binaries afterwards)03:18
DocScrutinizer05yes, you wanna create a dir on your PC for N900-related stuff03:19
DrathirDocScrutinizer05: ok i think it is possible that i have latest n900 firmware tnan nokia site show? i must check the code back for a second...03:19
DocScrutinizer05it is possible, but - as explained before - irrelevant03:20
DocScrutinizer05you want to do a full reflash right now03:20
FIQDrathir: it's possible that you have the latest fw right now yes, but you don't want to continue use it before reflash03:20
FIQas it isn't new03:20
FIQto erase stuff from previous owner03:20
DocScrutinizer05you want to clean your device to virgin state, and you wanna learn how easy and convenient the process is03:20
FIQDocScrutinizer05: why does vanilla make system unbootable btw? doesn't make sense to me03:21
DocScrutinizer05vanilla nukes /opt03:22
FIQ(i.e. flashing vanilla and then not flash combined)03:22
*** Rantwolf has quit IRC03:22
FIQhm03:22
FIQbut combined doesn't touch /opt, does it?03:22
DocScrutinizer05it does! a lot03:23
FIQhmm ok03:23
merlin1991but it does not remove any stuff03:23
mad_devDrathir: just do it...update to latest CSSU...and enjoy it03:23
merlin1991only loads the defaults again03:23
DocScrutinizer05it cleans out opt to empty state, then runs one-time-optificatrion03:23
merlin1991that's the difference03:23
merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: rly`?03:23
DocScrutinizer05yes03:23
FIQI thought it just reset rootfs03:23
merlin1991doesn't it leave the old stuff behind?03:24
DocScrutinizer05nope03:24
DocScrutinizer05combined cleans /opt03:24
DocScrutinizer05only on first-boot03:24
merlin1991ah well you learn somehting new each day :)03:24
FIQ"only on first boot"03:25
DocScrutinizer05that's why you mustn't boot device after combined flashing, before flashing vanilla03:25
FIQthen I can't see why you need to do combined+vanilla+combined03:25
DocScrutinizer05or rather: flash combined (again) after vanilla03:25
FIQ(the third part)03:25
DocScrutinizer05^^^03:26
FIQwell.. don't boot then? :p03:26
DocScrutinizer05that's not that simple03:26
DocScrutinizer05and thus only for "experts"03:26
DocScrutinizer05see03:26
DocScrutinizer05~flash03:27
infobotmaemo-flashing is, like, http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware03:27
DocScrutinizer053 seconds are more than enough to spoil things03:27
DocScrutinizer05if you wanna flash vanilla *after* combined, you have to make sure it doesn't boot for 0.01 seconds03:28
DocScrutinizer05or you simply flash combined again after vanilla03:28
mad_devDrathir: always, always backup your data....always03:28
DocScrutinizer05and reboot does't care anymore03:28
DocScrutinizer05mad_dev: he has no data yet to backup03:29
DocScrutinizer05sheß03:29

*** FlameReaper-PC has quit IRC03:29
FIQDocScrutinizer05: hmmm ok03:29
mad_devDocScrutinizer05: just a general reminder03:29
FIQsounds as bad design of the process03:30
DocScrutinizer05mad_dev: pretty ok03:30
DocScrutinizer05FIQ: optification is a botch03:30
DocScrutinizer05but a botch you can live with if you understand the implications03:31

DocScrutinizer05~optification03:33
infobotoptification is a inventive duct tape workaround to reclaim space in fs root, done due to the fact the systeminit *and* partitioning is FUBAR,  http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Packaging,_Deploying_and_Distributing/Installing_under_opt_and_MyDocs, or ""OMG - I wish they looked into FHS and moved /usr to eMMC"", http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE2 bullet1,2 and fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE16 dot3"03:33
Drathirok im back03:34
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: get flasher-3.5, *combined* LATEST (preferably international version), and *vanilla*03:34
FIQi find it odd that n900 emulates gba better than gb(c) due to lack of good gbc emulator03:35
Drathirmad_dev: i think to do rsync with my home server...03:35
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: I'll share a site once you got your device flashed. it has all you need for rsync03:35
mad_devDrathir: even better03:36
FIQ(not odd due to not logical, but due to the fact that apparently none decided to do any better emulator than vgb, which has audio issues making it unbearable, and also isn't fullspeed)03:36
*** sirdancealot7 has quit IRC03:37
DocScrutinizer05Drathir: most imprtant with flashing: don't forget to blacklist cdc_phonet03:40
mad_devDocScrutinizer05: whats cdc_phonet?03:40
FIQDocScrutinizer05: what's the purpose of the module?03:40
DocScrutinizer05a kernel module on PC that spoils the soup03:41
FIQbut why does it exist?03:41
merlin1991I dunno what dist Doc runs but neither on buntkuh nor on debian does that module spoil the fun03:41
DocScrutinizer05FIQ: purpose: enable apps to connect *directly* to N900 modem03:41
FIQmerlin1991: it did on arch03:41
DocScrutinizer05plug in N900 via usb. do `lsmod|grep phonet`. If any hits, you got a problem and need to blacklist cdc_phonet03:43

amospallaIve got a debian chroot into n900, can I make chrooted pulseaudio connect to main pulseaudio through esd?12:42
amospallaor is there any other suggested method to do that?12:42
*** Kilroo has quit IRC12:44
amospallaI guess pulseaudio only allows esd as server, but can not connect to it as client12:44
lartza_perhaps through env variables you could tell chrooted pulse clients to connect to main pulse12:46
lartza_PULSE_SERVER etc, from man pulseaudio12:46
amospallathe problem is that new pulseaudio versions doesnt work with old pulseaudio on n90012:47
amospallawow, I see that the pulseaudio I have access to on debian chroot is 2.0, that is even worst12:47
Skryclient connecting to server should work regardless of version difference12:48
Skryshould :)12:48
tadzikmpd also has this problem12:48
tadzik(or so I think)12:48
SkrySomething to note, "The dbus machine ID in the chroot needs to be the same as that of the main host, which it wasn't for me. That caused audio apps to report "connection refused" when I tested them."12:49

HurrianPali, I'm using the previous version for now, I'll use it when VDQ is calibrated13:49
HurrianAlso, which hald-addon-bme is that? Mine logs to /tmp and does shutdown correctly.13:50
Paliold = nokia, new = replacement13:51
HurrianYes, it's the replacement one.13:52
DocScrutinizer05VDQ is a flag of bq27200 (valid discharge qualified), it means that a calibration cycle would result from continuing to discharge battery. If something happens to battery that spoils the calibration, VDQ is unset13:55
DocScrutinizer05you then need to charge battery completely to set it again, aka to start new learning cycle13:56
*** Macor has joined #maemo13:57
DocScrutinizer05main reason for VDQ unset: short charging of battery. and current flowing *into* battery during discharge cyclke will spoil the calibration abd thus unset VDQ13:58

DocScrutinizer05any charging unsets VDQ until battery at 100%13:59
jon_yso just leave it on charge until it's green again to fix it?14:00

*** dos1 has quit IRC14:26
jon_yI was wonder how it was hooking on the context change14:27
DocScrutinizer05nfc what's a callgate, and the conditions for BPcache invalidation are tricky, you need to load new program text of the other 'gender' to a location that has valid branch prediction but not for that gender. Then the jump will go to obsolete destination14:27
kerioShadowJK: (re: changes in bq27k calibration) that's fair - i didn't use the script to *charge*, this time - only to discharge14:27

kerioso it didn't immediately stop charging once VDQ was set14:28
*** Macor has quit IRC14:29
jon_yso the workaround is for some memory layout?14:29
DocScrutinizer05the workaround is branch prediction buffer flush on context switches14:29
kerioHurrian: "tackling" dsme is kinda hard14:30
kerioeverything talks to it14:30
jon_ywhat happens without the workaround?14:30
DocScrutinizer05see above14:30
DocScrutinizer05the jump will go to obsolete destination14:30
jon_yok I see14:30
jon_ymaybe the phrasing threw me off14:31
DocScrutinizer05it's complicated14:31
DocScrutinizer05usually BP queue entries get invalidated by some hw in instruction decoder14:32
jon_ythe cpu does something extra that needs to be workaround?14:33
DocScrutinizer05but that fails when you swap arm program text with thumb program text, and both ahve a jump instruction at same locatzion14:33
DocScrutinizer05so your thumb code jumps to the destination that been valid in the arm code context14:34
DocScrutinizer05aiui14:34
jon_yok, may jump to the wrong area due to insn size difference?14:34
DocScrutinizer05no, because of instruction decoder doesn't invalidate the branch prediction entry14:35
jon_yyup, still over my head :)14:35
jon_yso basically, thumb->thumb jump is fine14:36
DocScrutinizer05it *seems* to me the instruction decoder doesn't detect there's a arm branch prediction when it decodes a thumb branch instruction, or sth like that14:36
jon_ybut thumb->arm jumps and vice versa needs flushing?14:36
DocScrutinizer05it's program text swaps that need the flushing14:36
DocScrutinizer05it's really not so simple to explain14:37
DocScrutinizer05I'm not even sure I completely understood it14:37
*** murrayc has quit IRC14:38
DocScrutinizer05you have memory with instructions, and for each instruction there's possibly an allocated branch prediction in a separate buffer14:38
jon_ydefinitely a RISC thing14:38
DocScrutinizer05now if the jump instruction on a particular memory addr changes from a arm to a thumb instruction or vice versa, the branch prediction in buffer doesn't get cleared14:39
jon_yok, so far so good, I understand that at least14:40
DocScrutinizer05while *usually* the CPU hardware is supposed to clear those invalid branch predictions14:40

jon_yit has a 50% chance to take the wrong path and execute stuff that is still in the pipeline?14:42
*** chenca has joined #maemo14:43

*** Macor has quit IRC14:47
DocScrutinizer05jon_y: the basic design of the workaround been by TI or even ARM (dunno). freemangordon found a way to make those patches work on N900, so we consider them as safe as the original patchset by TI14:47
DocScrutinizer05I dunno what TI found out about when to flush BPB14:48

freemangordonjon_y: in addition to what DocScrutinizer05 said - because os a staled prediction in BTB, the correct code is executed in incorrect CPU state15:19
*** Pali has joined #maemo15:19
freemangordoni.e. thumb code is executed as ARM nad vice versa15:19
freemangordon*and15:19
*** Kilroo has joined #maemo15:19
DocScrutinizer05ooh, yeah, I forgot15:19
freemangordonso the usual result when errata hits is SIGILL15:20
DocScrutinizer05since the branch target from BTB also determines the CPU state, in case of obsolete BTB value getting used, the CPU also switches to wrong state in addition to jumping to wrong addr15:21
freemangordonno, jump is to the correct address, just the state is wring15:21
freemangordon*wrong15:21
DocScrutinizer05(pair target addr means ARM mode, impair means thumb mode)15:21
freemangordonyep15:22
*** thetet has quit IRC15:22
*** M4rtinK has quit IRC15:22
freemangordonbut instead of taking the mode from the instruction itself, CPU takes the mode from BTB, which is invalid15:22
DocScrutinizer05the target addr however is that of BTB and has no relation to the new correct addr as derived from the instruction the stale BTB entry is linked to15:22
*** Pali has quit IRC15:23
*** Pali has joined #maemo15:26
DocScrutinizer05stage a): 0x50: (arm)jump 0x100; BTB:target100;;  stage b): instruction swapped: 0x50: (thumb)jump 0x301; BTB(stale!!):target100;; now in c) the thumb code at 0x50 jumps to 0x100 though it *should jump to 0x301. Target addr pair (0x100) means CPU switching to ARM mode15:26
*** konelix has quit IRC15:27
*** konelix has joined #maemo15:27
DocScrutinizer05that's how I understand it15:27
DocScrutinizer05odds are that 1. the target addr is incorrect (obviously) and 2. that the code at target addr also swapped from ARM to thumb code15:29
*** dafox has joined #maemo15:29
DocScrutinizer05flushing BTB on swapping code at 0x50 will cure the problem15:30
DocScrutinizer05usually CPU does that automatically, but not when swapping between ARM and thumb and both have a jump instruction at same memory addr15:31

*** Jarris has left #maemo18:07
DocScrutinizer05anyway obviously removing brightness plugin from MCE does moot the brighness controll in settings18:07

tadziks/sceen/screen/18:08
infobottadzik meant: well, when I do that think I can no longer lock screen18:08
DocScrutinizer05I guess if you wanna stop ALS from changing screen brightness et al, you need to unload the ALS kernel module and create static sysfs nodes with some fake content instead18:09
tadzikdoes everyone else just live with it?18:09
DocScrutinizer05I do18:09
tadzikmaybe that was a bug that it didn't do that on my previous installation18:10
DocScrutinizer05NB that on max level (5) screen brightness isn't controlled by ALS anymore18:10

*** valerius has quit IRC18:18
DocScrutinizer05as long as the ALS brightness sysnode is created by a kernel module, you can't write values to it and hope they stick18:22
DocScrutinizer05any write calls kernel module's set(), and read calls get() funtion18:22
jonwilcan someone verify if the file downloads at http://www.wotsit.org/ are working or not for them? (they are not for me and I want to see if its me or the site)18:23
DocScrutinizer05it's as moot an idea as is trying to write a value to/dev/input to fake a key on kbd got pressed18:23
*** sirdancealot2a has joined #maemo18:24
*** DarkDiamondV|3 has quit IRC18:24
DocScrutinizer05you could however divert mce filehandle to /sys/*/*/ALS/*/brightness to something else18:26
DocScrutinizer05either via LD_PRELOAD and a lib that diverts fopen() for that particular file path, or by mount18:26
DocScrutinizer05you *could* even try to mount a plain file over the sysfs node18:28
DocScrutinizer05but I guess modprobe -r for the ALS module will work better18:28
