eddybI've just woken up08:54
eddyband my N900 which was charging overnight is off08:54
eddybI have multiboot, power kernel doesn't work, default kinda does08:55
eddybbut when I start it, the led goes white/yellow and then fades off08:55
eddyband if I leave the bootloader alone, it reboots or something, in a loop08:56
eddybthe internet says batery too low08:57
*** eMHa__ has quit IRC08:59
Drathiri vave solution to get back internet connection without restart the phone when write cant connect... only what need to do is 2 times ifconfig phonet0 down08:59
Drathirand after gprs and network off 2 times ifconfig phonet0 up09:00
Drathireddyb: charger is broken i think...09:01
eddybDrathir: that's what I thought, too09:01
Drathireddyb: connect phone to pc and stay that few hours usb charging can be little slower...09:02
eddybit seems to work better from my laptop, but I think the usb cable is a bit borked :(09:03
*** unclouded has joined #maemo09:03
Drathireddyb: ewentually put off battery for about minutes and try then put in back and poweron phone... but i have only one that situation that phone dont see charger and dont charging...09:05
eddybdamn thing still restarts when connected to the laptop09:05
eddybso it's something in the phone that's broken :(09:06
Drathireddyb: you must stay phone off about 15-30 min depends of charging power to phone can boot up corectly...09:07
*** OkropNick has joined #maemo09:07
Drathirif make loop when connected i think isnt bad phone  try to make something like in my words pre boot mode and have to little batery power to do that and do that in loop mode when battery go to enough power loop sould stop and phone will be charging orange blinking light...09:11
eddybit's charging09:14
eddybbut every half a minute it reboots09:14
eddyband because nokia is stupid, it drains battery with that vibrator motor and the screen09:15
*** XATRIX has joined #maemo09:17
*** Aoyagi_craptop has left #maemo09:22
Drathirlow secure thing that maybe can broke your phone is put out the battery when phone is connected to charger and put in bac that can help stop loop mode but  i think could be very risky and dangerous...09:23
eddybXD09:24
eddybanyway, I'll leave it in there, hopefully it charges a bit while I'm gone09:25
Drathiryes should charge in max 30 minutes to stop loop mode...09:26
Drathirmy 750mA make that in 10-15min when have drained battery... pc usb depends of pc could e 350-500mA max 900 if good remember...09:29
Drathiri have too broken Nokia charger 1200mA she charging slower than phone discharging ^^09:31

DocScrutinizer05sudser is da shite13:05
DocScrutinizer05re-install rootsh13:10
DocScrutinizer05or use ssh root@localhost13:10
DocScrutinizer05err, that won't work either with password locked13:10
*** arcean has joined #maemo13:10

ApicAh, k13:10
Apictnx13:10
DocScrutinizer05ssh might still work13:10
DocScrutinizer05depending on what you did, do you have sshkeys installed13:10
DocScrutinizer05?13:10
DocScrutinizer05uninstall and reinstall ssh might ask you for a password for root ;-)13:10
DocScrutinizer05a *new* password13:10
DocScrutinizer05eddyb: nope that's not nokia who's stupid. you probably ran into flatbat ddeadlock, your rootfs doesn't charge anymore, and thus you are locked in a bootloop that you only can escape with external charger and flashing13:15
DocScrutinizer05and I *never* heard about taking out battery while charging stops bootloop13:16

eddybDocScrutinizer05: thanks, and to be clear: my remark was that turning on the vibrator was a stupid idea from nokia14:03
eddybhey, you know what? it's green now14:03
DocScrutinizer05turning on vibrator?14:03
eddybin that loop, every half a minute or so, it was vibrating14:03
DocScrutinizer05sure, it's doing a short vibra kick during boot14:04
DocScrutinizer05nothing wrong with that14:04
eddybit happened so often that it made me think it's wasting all that energy on the stupid motor14:04
eddyboh dammit14:04
DocScrutinizer05the moment it does that the battery is supposed to have already enough charge form emergency charging to power the device for at least a few minutes, even with a short vibra kick14:05
eddybit's fully charged but I still get a yellow (the first time, now white) led fading then a restart14:05
eddybnow it's white every time14:05
eddybI left it charging this morning (about 4-5 hours ago) and when I came back it had green on the led14:06
DocScrutinizer05your rootfs is fsckdup, you need to fix bme to re-enable proper charging14:06
DocScrutinizer05or your charger is broken14:06
DocScrutinizer05I'd bet on bme14:07
DocScrutinizer05and KP14:07
eddybyeah, the problem happened even with USB charging and now it kinda looks charged14:07
eddybbut something in the kernel/system is bad14:07
eddybso I took the battery out, what now :/?14:08
DocScrutinizer05something broke around bq27200_battery.ko, bq24150.ko, bme-replacement, and powerkernel14:08
eddyboh, I just watched a DEFCON presentation on hacking apple batteries, which use similar bq chips14:09
keriomaybe he doesn't even have the bme replacement installed14:09
eddybare those ko objects in the fs or in an initrd?14:09
kerioeddyb: just because they're called "bq", it doesn't mean they are similar14:09
DocScrutinizer051st thing to check: remove battery, press and hold "U" key, insert battery, check if NOKIA screen with USB icon *stays*14:09
eddybkerio: but they're still TI battery chips14:09
kerioyeah, but afaik they're complex enough to have an uploadable firmware14:10
eddybdo I let go of U?14:10
DocScrutinizer05only after device powered up14:10
eddybkerio: so do apple batteries, I guess you're referring to the fact that apple or nokia can write their own firmwares14:11
keriono, i mean apple batteries14:11
DocScrutinizer05hold U, insert battery, push powerbutton or plug USB charger, check screen, release U14:11
keriothe bq27200 on n900 doesn't have anything similar14:11
eddyboh I didn't power it14:12
*** valerius2k has joined #maemo14:12
DocScrutinizer05if NOKIA&USB stays, you release U and power it down again (immediately to save battery). Then prepare ~flashing14:13
eddybyellow/orange led on14:13
eddybscreen is stayin14:13
DocScrutinizer05if NOKIA&USB doesn't stay, you're out of luck since your battery is too weak for flashing14:14
eddybwhat would change by flashing?14:14
DocScrutinizer05it resets your system to stock config14:14
eddybI installed multiboot, nitdroid and powerkernel (the last one doesn't start at all in multiboot)14:15
keriooh god14:15
DocScrutinizer05since it's pretty much the only thing you can do with a bootloop (except rescueOS and BM), it's probably the thing you wanna go for14:15
DocScrutinizer05~maemo-multiboot14:16
eddyband I have some stuff in MyDocs (which I hope I'll get to keep) but I'm not sure about contacts, browser history, etc14:16
infobotwell, maemo-multiboot is deprecated, and a horrible hack.  PROBLEMS WITH NITDROID/MULTIBOOT? reflash rootfs&kernel aka COMBINED14:16
eddyblol14:16
kerioif you don't know how to get out of a bootloop, you shouldn't go anywhere near nitdroid14:16
eddybI haven't used it in months14:16
kerioand, regardless of who you are, you shoudln't think about going anywhere near multiboot14:16
eddybmostly because it breaks powerkernel and I have to force-reinstall three things to have powerkernel working in multiboot after I use nitdroid14:17
DocScrutinizer05eddyb: that's the "nice" feature of multiboot: it can nuke your whole system every single boot you do14:17
eddybDocScrutinizer05: that's why it says "can't find files to flash"?14:17
DocScrutinizer05aborting the boot is sufficient to do that to your system14:17
eddybwhen powerkernel it's broken by nitdroid or now14:17
eddybDocScrutinizer05: oh shit I think that's what happened here14:17
eddybdamn :(14:18
eddyb~flashing14:18
infoboti heard maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware14:18
*** alino2 has quit IRC14:18
eddybI'm guessing this? http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware#Linux_PC14:18
DocScrutinizer05all your settings and data and history and contacts live in your homedir on eMMC, they will survive a rootfs flashing14:19
eddybthanks, I feel better now14:19
eddyboh, fiasco. a friend of mine wrote 0xffff14:19
*** NIN101 has joined #maemo14:20
* DocScrutinizer05 idly wonders if multiboot should get removed from extras(-testing)14:20
DocScrutinizer05if it even is there14:20
eddybso I should never touch nitdroid again?14:21
eddybgingerbread isn't that good anyway :(14:21
DocScrutinizer05for sure it's dangerous and harmful to device, and I think it's missing any proper warning about that fact14:21
eddybDocScrutinizer05: it would be nice if the whole NOLO thing was explained somewhere14:22
eddyball this embedded bootloader stuff is weird, especially when it's proprietary/custom14:22
DocScrutinizer05eddyb: let me put it this way: even the nitdroid guys abandoned multiboot afaik. And in my book N900 is a maemo device, not a android device. There are better cheaper android devices, but there's no other maemo device at all14:23
eddybsadly, maemo isn't the peak of mobile linux, and I would've liked to use Chrome/Chromium on it :(14:24
eddybDocScrutinizer05: IIRC the installer uses multiboot. or it did a few months ago when I installed it14:24
DocScrutinizer05I think there's a #nitdroid channel. It's dead I've been told14:24
DocScrutinizer05eddyb: if you want android, sell your N900 on ebay and get two SGS2 for the money you earned from your N90014:25
eddybI think I've tried Mer or Nemo, but those used an external SD (which was a bit slow, and I have to make my own partitions to fit it)14:25
DocScrutinizer05there are enough users who want *maemo*14:25
DocScrutinizer05and there are enough cheap but better devices capable of running android14:26

DocScrutinizer05eh?14:27
DocScrutinizer05what's wrong with skeiron?14:28
DocScrutinizer05~skeiron14:28
infobotwell, skeiron is the semi-official backup and emergency standin for all internet borne maemo resources: http://skeiron.org/tablets-dev/   http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1315143#post131514314:28
eddyboh, I had to remove .php: http://skeiron.org/tablets-dev/maemo-dev-env-downloads/14:28
eddyb.deb :(14:29
eddybso I have to use a tar.gz and manually install a ton of 32bit deps14:29
DocScrutinizer05so what? everybody who's interested in development for maemo has to go thru it14:30
eddybnvm, it seems to work out of the box14:30
ShadowJK(or use the vm)14:30
eddybI'm not touching ubuntu14:31
DocScrutinizer05for completely unclear reasons *nobody* so far provided a vmware image that's up to date and has full sb install14:31
DocScrutinizer05or at least I haven't heard about it14:31
eddybUSA/UK/Global... hmmm14:31
eddybIIRC this N900 was originally bought in Germany14:32
DocScrutinizer05you're aware that SDK != flasher, are you?14:32
DocScrutinizer05use global14:32
eddybI got it for free from my friend who replaced it with an iphone or something14:32
DocScrutinizer05please carefully and *completely* read:14:33
DocScrutinizer05~flash14:33
infoboti guess maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware14:33
DocScrutinizer05when you're done, read it again!14:33
ApicI want to make a Debian Chroot Image. Why does »dd if=/dev/zero of=deb.ext3 bs=1M count=1 seek=2001« make the System hang?14:33
ApicDoes it need to build intensive FAT blocklists?14:33
ApicOr maybe I should use skip=?14:34
DocScrutinizer05Apic: maybe because there's not enough room for a 2.001GB image? (though a sparse file which shouldn't eat much space).14:35
ApicI flashed new Vanilla, there's almost 32G free14:36
eddybDocScrutinizer05: I read it, but I'm curios about things like "what happens if USB suddenly disconnects? what's broken and what's still there? is it enough working stuff left for another retry?"14:36
eddybit would be easier if I could understand the architechture14:36
*** NeutrinoPower has joined #maemo14:36
eddyband what you can break and what's safe14:36
eddybwhat's responsible for the NOKIA screen at boot14:36
DocScrutinizer05eddyb: you can't brick N900 (basically, unless you're an expert or gifted fool)14:37
DocScrutinizer05that's NOLO14:37
eddybok, that's better. resident firmware?14:37
DocScrutinizer05basically yes14:37
eddybthat you can't touch without electrocuting the device or breaking a chip14:37
ApicDoc: Never mind, now it finished14:37
DocScrutinizer05well, the boot is ROMBL->(XLoader->)NOLO->(uboot->)Linuxkernel14:38
DocScrutinizer05ROMBL is in CPU and can't get altered14:38
DocScrutinizer05coldflash would be used to flash a new NOLO14:38
DocScrutinizer05NOLO in turn does usual flashing of rootfs etc14:39
DocScrutinizer05I actually hardly ever heard of anybody who nuked his NOLO so you don't need to worry aout coldflashing14:39
DocScrutinizer05if your NOKIA screen shows up, your NOLO is fine14:40

DocScrutinizer05xloader is a stage in booting that's merged into NOLO basically14:41

DocScrutinizer05eddyb: in above page, you s/uboot/NOLO/, for N90014:44

DocScrutinizer05eddyb: N900 uBoot is not the uBoot mentioned on http://www.omappedia.org/wiki/Bootloader_Project14:46

eddyboh14:47
DocScrutinizer05you shouldn't boot up device with SIM, rather install notmynokia first, or you send that nasty SMS14:48
eddybwhat SMS?14:48
HurrianMyNokia14:48
DocScrutinizer05SIM14:48
DocScrutinizer05err premium SMS to Nokia14:48
eddyboh14:48
Hurrianeddyb: tl;dr - after flashing, ensure SIM is not inserted, get root permissions and "apt-get remove cherry*"14:49
eddybI don't have the SIM in because I moved it to a 1000-ish phone until I fix the N90014:49

ShadowJKwhen xchat power hogging was brought under control23:09
DocScrutinizer51umm23:09
DocScrutinizer51I had my special setup with keepalive = 90(s) or so, since times before I adopted ZNC23:10
ShadowJK/timer timers still work, and I use that myself to ping my bouncer once every 10 minutes, to detect connection break23:10

DocScrutinizer51there's a config in xchat.cfg23:12

ShadowJKIf that timer isn't working, then it's been disabled since 2009 for sure :P23:13
