DocScrutinizer05kwtm7: it's not exactly about deleting that db09:06
DocScrutinizer05but I think with sqlite3 frontend deleting all records should be simple09:07
DocScrutinizer05google is your friend09:07
DocScrutinizer05kwtm7: another method might be to select "delete conversations" from conversations pulldown menu, then select *all* conversations with ctrl-A from kbd, and click "delete"09:15

deepyCan I make my N900 stop beeping at night just because the battery is low?11:21
deepyI think I jumped up through the roof at 2AM11:21
tadzikwow, it beeps on low battery? That's news to me11:21
deepyAnd the feelings of guilt from charging my almost full cell instead of the almost empty one didn't subside for at least an hour11:21

DocScrutinizer05and, **special**: play-sound /usr/share/sounds/ui-recharge_battery.wav11:29
DocScrutinizer05deepy: ((Can I make my N900 stop beeping...) sure! power it down, or charge it ;-D11:30
* tadzik whispers: "or remove the wav file!" and hides11:31
DocScrutinizer05well, that's a possibility to just stop the empty-bat warning11:31
DocScrutinizer05the more genuine and sane way though would be to set system-sounds to 0 in settings11:32
DocScrutinizer05will affect all system sounds11:32
DocScrutinizer05(like charging notification, connection-established notification...)11:33
DocScrutinizer05cd /usr/share/sounds/; for f in ui-charging_started.wav ui-connection_lost.wav presence-offline.wav presence-online.wav; do play-sound $f; sleep 1;done;11:38
deepyI'll lower the system sounds then11:39
DocScrutinizer05play-sound is unrelated to systemsounds volume!11:39
DocScrutinizer05just in case you might've pondered to check volume with the line I pasted above11:40
DocScrutinizer05for f in /usr/share/sounds/*.wav; do play-sound $f; sleep 1;done;11:41

Palideepy, open control panel, then profile settings and set system sounds to 0 or off11:55

dimirHello there!12:04
DocScrutinizer05I prefer alarmed for that12:04
DocScrutinizer05sounds more universal purpose than Timed Silencer application12:04
dimirQuick question. I was wondering how easy it is to change the n900 motherboard by myself. I'm not an expert in these things but was wondering should I trust this operation to the specialist or it's safe to do that at home?12:05
dimirThe thing is, on my n900 the GSM-module died. I have found the guy that has broken display on his n900 and willing to sell it cheap. I need to make sure his motherboard is fine before buying it.12:05
DocScrutinizer05swap is simple12:06
dimirYou mean swapping the motherboard?12:06
DocScrutinizer05making sure that this mainboard is OK is a tad more demanding task12:07
DocScrutinizer05yep12:07
dimirAh.12:07
dimirShit.12:07
dimirIs there something you could recommend?12:07
dimirWhat would you do?12:07
dimirHe is selling his n900 for 40$ USD.12:08
DocScrutinizer05get the board, swap, see if everything ok12:08
dimirHow much time would it take?12:08
dimirI wouldn't want to hold the seller for an hour. :-D12:08
DocScrutinizer0560min12:08
dimirAh12:08
dimirShit.12:08
DocScrutinizer05you might be able to swap screen half in 20 min12:09
dimirAlright, I'll give him a call and find out if his display shows at least something.12:09
DocScrutinizer05depending on luck and experience12:09
dimirExperience is almost 0.12:09
DocScrutinizer05separating kbd and screen half takes ~5 min12:09
DocScrutinizer05but plugging in the flex cable connector again may cost you your last hair12:10
DocScrutinizer05or might as well be a matter of 20s12:10
DocScrutinizer05I'd get a screen-broken N900 for 40 bucks any time12:11
DocScrutinizer05for 30 for sure12:11
DocScrutinizer05s/get/buy/12:11
chem|st+112:11
dimirHeh, hes device has no display at all. :-D12:12
DocScrutinizer05only with working USB though12:12
dimirAh.12:12
dimirSo in general I could take the risk.12:12
dimirGood.12:12
chem|stdimir: you can check if everything is working by attaching it to a tv for example12:13
DocScrutinizer05ooh, even better. that might mean the screen / display is OK and only main flex connector is defect12:13
DocScrutinizer05chem|st: doesn't work with FPC defect12:13
DocScrutinizer05don't ask me why12:13
dimir:-D12:13
dimirWell, he said he sat on it and the display glass broke. So he took it apart.12:13
chem|stDocScrutinizer05: darn that worked with the broken N912:13
dimirI don't know what does it mean exactly.12:14
DocScrutinizer05but you should see proper ENUM in syslog when pluggin in to PC's USB12:14
dimirSo, in general, swapping the MB is less risk, right?12:14
DocScrutinizer05*sigh* so maybe it's not really worth 40 bucks12:14
dimirDo I need some special screwdriver for that or anything?12:14
dimirIs there a howto for that?12:14
dimir:-)12:14
dimirI guess there is on youtube.12:15

DocScrutinizer05forget all those videos, they often are missleading12:18
dimirOK. Well, thanks a lot for the info. I think I'll first practice a bit at home and then when I meet the guy I do the swap quicker.12:19
DocScrutinizer05ouch, the tehkseven vid12:19
dimirWhich one?12:19
DocScrutinizer05yours12:19
DocScrutinizer05same as my dead link, but it's no good video12:19

*** Hurrian has quit IRC12:22
DocScrutinizer05you probably don't want to disassemble the screen assembly half at all12:23
dimiryeah.12:25
DocScrutinizer05just *carefully* unplug the flat plastic connector ribbon from mainboard, and swap screen completely12:25
DocScrutinizer05don't bend or pull the flat plastic connector12:26
DocScrutinizer05they call it main flex connector iirc12:26
DocScrutinizer05but honestly, when that guy planted his fat back on the screen so it cracked, then disassembled it and wrecked it some more, it's questionable if that device is still worth 40 bucks12:28
DocScrutinizer05at very least connect his device to a linux PC and check PC's syslog12:29
DocScrutinizer05so you can be sure the board is semi-alive at least12:29
DocScrutinizer05incl USB12:29
dimirAh, good idea. I'll take my notebook with me.12:30
DocScrutinizer05and a charged BL-5C12:31
dimirWell, what wonders me, he said the device works properly, I wonder how did he conclude that.12:31
dimirDocScrutinizer05: the battery?12:31
DocScrutinizer05yep12:31
DocScrutinizer05odds are his battery is depleted and without battery it won't really boot12:31
DocScrutinizer05put a mark on yours, so you don't swap it12:32
DocScrutinizer05dimir: German?12:33

DocScrutinizer05I meant your battery though ;-)12:48
*** teotwaki has quit IRC12:48
DocScrutinizer05actually mainboard defects might easily be caused by too much mechanical stress, like someone sitting on the device12:49
DocScrutinizer05it seems that often the soldering balls of BGA chips disconnect, probably caused (among others) by bending the PCB while chips can't be bent12:51
DocScrutinizer05anyway, good luck!12:53

teotwakiSo, massive fail.16:35
teotwakiI developed a new function on one of our products, testing it quickly, build an rpm, send it to the test environment, play with it. Small problems, fine tune it... aaaaand, stuck. Bug. Regression. No data is detected anymore, parsing errors everywhere.16:36
teotwakiMy direct co-worker starts looking with me, we find a quick helper function that always returns 1, for some reason, so we add a breakpoint in that function, test it, breakpoint doesn't get triggered. Ok, wanna play? I add a delete (char *) 0x12345678; compile, test again, no coredump.16:37
teotwakiOk, wait, what?16:37
teotwakiI check the gcc/clang version, maybe some newfangled noob error handling that prevents you from coredumping by your own accord, I decide to simply to a cout to see what the values are, disregarding the logging system. Nothing.16:37
teotwakiTurns out, we were adding code *after* the return line.16:38
teotwakiSo, that's all nice, we now see the values, but they still don't add up. How can 84 - 16 = 1?16:38
teotwakiTurns out I wrote "bool", instead of unsigned long int.16:38

gomiamyes, I'm afraid that had to do with my original problem. I probably added a -R in the beginning when I shouldn't22:55
gomiamanyway, testing this new option22:55
kerioremove battery, enter commandline to flash COMBINED without -R, hold u, put battery in, wait for flash to finish, remove battery, enter commandline to flash VANILLA without -R, hold U, put battery in, wait for finish, remove battery, enter commandline to flash COMBINED without -R, hold U, put battery in, wait for finish, remove battery, unplug everything, put battery in, turn on22:55

kerioFIQ: then you should be able to just install cssu-thumb23:50
FIQkerio: nice23:50
keriowithout changing your kernel23:50
FIQi'll do bm backup first though23:50
FIQ(again)23:51
kerioif you want to be sure, install pali's fiasco-do-update-ask23:51
vi_FIQ: good move!23:51
keriobut make sure to actually flash if it asks to flash23:51
FIQbtmm23:51
FIQpretty simple to remember23:52
FIQheh23:53
FIQthere's lots of adventages with a (mostly) open system like maemo23:53
*** Guest46504 has quit IRC23:53
FIQit's improving now, after 3 years of existing23:53
FIQ(n900, that is)23:53
DocScrutinizer05orly? :-D23:53
FIQ:P23:53
DocScrutinizer05and I thought all n900 users are steampunks23:54
FIQbut I guess the community can only shrink now, mostly23:54
FIQas there are hardly any new n900s23:54
vi_plenty of old ones.23:54
vi_right now is the golden time to stock up on n900s23:55
*** cobalto has joined #maemo23:55
DocScrutinizer05well, we seen - like - 4 new users during last 3 weeks23:55
DocScrutinizer05just here in this chan23:55
FIQDocScrutinizer05: true23:55
FIQeven though n900 users wont increase, the community might do23:55
FIQas casuals replace the device, and their devices get re-used by people that actually care about an open system23:55
DocScrutinizer05yep23:56
gomiamvi_: unfortunately, n900's are still a bit pricy on eBay :)23:57
gomiamok, CSSU testing installed23:57
FIQgomiam: a shop in my country sold *new* (yes, really) n900s23:57
FIQthough they did it for launch price..23:57
FIQso not really worth it eh23:57
tadzikthey still sell new ones here23:57
tadzikfor ~150€ or so23:57
FIQthe shop I saw did it for launch price, so ~600€23:58
FIQtadzik: interested? ;)23:58
gomiamtadzik: yup, I got mine for about EUR10023:58
tadzikhardly a good offer23:58
tadzikFIQ: not really, mine works pretty fine :)23:58
r00t|homei bought a like-new n900 on ebay for 80eur...23:58
FIQI guess I could stock up on them23:58
FIQthen keep them for some years23:58
FIQthen sell it for moar :o23:58
FIQ(once they get very hard to come by)23:59
tadzikif there will be people to buy them for more23:59
FIQ:P23:59
tadzikI don't think I'll buy another one if this one broke23:59
FIQi would23:59
FIQI seriously considered ^ that offer as my n900 was useless in a period23:59
FIQbut decided to do a last attempt on getting my n900 in working state23:59
