vi__use uboot.14:24
ApicYeah, multiboot is broken by Design.14:25
ApicFlashes the Kernel on _every_ Boot...14:26
vi__not really.  It was a good workaround at the time.14:26
rd1381could it be that i have hw problems so my wireless downloads gets stuck?14:28

DocScrutinizer05if it has "about CSSU" then... guess what14:56
reenignEesreveRright. so it says Version: 21.2011.38-1Smaemo6.114:58
DocScrutinizer05looks OK14:58
reenignEesreveRhow do i update to next stable one?14:58
DocScrutinizer05Latest version: Testing(2013-10-27): 21.2011.38-1Tmaemo8.3; Stable(2013-06-18): 21.2011.38-1Smaemo6.114:58
reenignEesreveRbut how do  i install it? I tried the installer script at the page, it opened the HAM but didn't do any updates14:59
DocScrutinizer05HUH?14:59
DocScrutinizer05install what?14:59

reenignEesreveRaaaaaaaah. ..... oh ok15:00
reenignEesreveRi was like 2013 != 201115:00
Apic;-)15:00
reenignEesreveRstrange name they've got! thanks a lot :)15:00
reenignEesreveRso the only thing i need to do now is install kernel-power15:01
DocScrutinizer05this is the release of maemo stock it's based on15:01
reenignEesreveRuboot's desccription says its risky15:01
reenignEesreveRany other alternative?15:01
*** jas4711 has quit IRC15:01
DocScrutinizer05probably even last MAJOR release, for the 21.201115:01
DocScrutinizer05no, uBoot is da thing to go15:02
DocScrutinizer05compared to multiboot it#s safe as milk15:02
*** jas4711 has joined #maemo15:02
DocScrutinizer05if you don't have thumb or other strange kernels installed already, then uBoot is absolutely safe15:03
DocScrutinizer05uBoot comes with default stock kernel, so no risk at all15:04
DocScrutinizer05if shit hits the fan, you simply flash the kernel you had before you installed uBoot (though there's little likelihood you have to, when you're using stock kernel before you install uBoot)15:05
*** SmilyOrg has joined #maemo15:05
DocScrutinizer05but when you nstalled multiboot before, then VERY LIKELY you will end up with a system that's terribly broken and you'll need a complete reflash15:06
DocScrutinizer05~maemo-multiboot15:06
infobotsomebody said maemo-multiboot was deprecated, and a horrible hack.  PROBLEMS WITH NITDROID/MULTIBOOT? reflash rootfs&kernel aka COMBINED15:06
DocScrutinizer05only chance: *completely* roll back *all* changes multiboot did to your system, *before* you install uBoot15:07
reenignEesreveR"apt-get remove multiboot" would be sufficient?15:08
DocScrutinizer05uninstalling multiboot doesn't suffice since it doesn't uninstall cleanly, I heard15:08
DocScrutinizer05^^^15:08
reenignEesreveRwhats the easiest way to ensure?15:08
DocScrutinizer05reflash15:08
reenignEesreveRalready done that ... multiboot was still there15:08
DocScrutinizer05honestly15:08
reenignEesreveRerrr.... no wait15:09
DocScrutinizer05hardly15:09
reenignEesreveRi only reflashed the kernel15:09
DocScrutinizer05yeah15:09
reenignEesreveRso technically i didn't reflash to get rid of multiboot15:09
*** Smily has quit IRC15:09
DocScrutinizer05multiboot fscks up your init scripts and whatnot else15:09
*** SmilyOrg is now known as Smily15:09
DocScrutinizer05reflash COMBINED15:10
reenignEesreveRwhats the easiest way to reflash and restore my data?15:13
DocScrutinizer05make a backup with stock (hildon) backup app, flash COMBINED (*not* VANILLA), re-install your apps list using the in backup app's restore function15:19
DocScrutinizer05if you got "manually" installed apps/programs (apt-get install or even dpkg) then you need to take care of those manualy after reflash, since odds are Hildon backup doesn't know about them15:20
reenignEesreveRlife is too short to make backups ... i tried installing uboot and it worked :P15:20
DocScrutinizer05you can check what's in your backup: a) it's a set of tarballs, and b) you can invoke backup restore and it will present you a list of apps it will restore15:21
DocScrutinizer05yeah, until you touch multiboot15:21
DocScrutinizer05first activity done by multiboot zombie will nuke your system now15:22
DocScrutinizer05one way or the other15:22

dackhey..  I discovered something great, but don't really want to sign up for an account on maemo.org just for one post.  I was hoping someone here could spread the word...16:25
dackessentially, the mail client is incredibly slow for gmail, but I figured out how to fix it!16:26
DocScrutinizer05http://maemo.cloud-7.de/Neo900/media/pic+vid/batswap-quick-procedure.mp416:26
dackthere's a setting in gmail to limit the number of emails in an IMAP folder to 1000 ( there's other values too)16:26
dackso, now my email is much much more responsive and an email loads up in seconds where before it was literally minutes16:27
dackwould someone please post that on the forums for other people to hear?16:27

wndNokia Nseries, with Character (image set) as background image. yes I know I'm boring.17:07
reenignEesreveRdo themes affect responsiveness of device?17:08
wndI'm not sure, but as n900 uses gtk, I suppose a less/more demanding theme could be created (namely by using an engine faster/slower than sapwood17:13
wndalso the theme style can be more/less complex, and use images of different dimensions. I /guess/ gtk encodes the images only once and keeps the uncompressed data in memory.17:15
wnderm, decodes17:15
wndseems that I have a day of opposites17:15

DocScrutinizer05hi ShadowJK22:18
DocScrutinizer05somebody suggested to rather use a second uSD tray instead of eMMC. What's your atke?22:18
DocScrutinizer05take*22:18
NeutrinoPowerhi, I can't use the mass-storage mode because the storage is in use but fuser /home/user/MyDocs/ gives nothing but "umount: can't umount /home/user/MyDocs: Device or resource busy"22:24
sonoemmc would be more resilient and reliable, probably cheaper too?22:26

*** eMHa has joined #maemo22:37
sixwheeledbeastextra uSD tray would mean easy replacement of flash memory. Would it reduce cost of device?22:39
StyXmanI think the board will become outdated (for some values of that) before the eMMC fails or becomes too small22:41
sonowhereas uSD will fail due to lack of wear levelling if you don't use a flash filesystem, and die from dust and shock before that22:42
*** dafox has joined #maemo22:42
sonothen again, i am only a software guy. what do i know?22:43
*** sq-one has joined #maemo22:43
sonooh hey, it appears that uSD does usually have integrated wear levelling after all.22:46
sonoup to the card manufacturer, aparrently22:47
SpeedEvilsono: No.22:49
SpeedEvilsono: You can't make a uSD or indeed a SD without wear leveling.22:49
SpeedEvilAs it pretty much means your card will start out witl large amounts of errors, and gain more rapidly during life.22:49
*** zap_ has quit IRC22:50
DocScrutinizer05first thing to notice: eMMC afaik has 8 bit interface, uSD has 4 bit22:51
sixwheeledbeastIt will also make it easier to transfer everything to new HW if required. I think it's a great idea, if there are no side effects.22:51
*** bef0rd has quit IRC22:52
NeutrinoPowerwhen the display turn off the vnc-session is black too... :-(22:54
DocScrutinizer05LOL, sure22:54
*** lizardo has quit IRC22:55
sonoSpeedEvil: right, how silly of me.22:55
sonowouldn't eMMC connect to some sort of GPMC, and uSD to some sort of SPI-like interface?22:56
DocScrutinizer05basically yes22:56
sonoright22:57
sonoat least something i learned from our EE guys22:57
SpeedEvilI thought eMMC was basically MMC22:57
SpeedEvilWhich is pretty similar to SD22:57
DocScrutinizer05hmm yes, kinda, but wider bus22:57
SpeedEvilMMC to make it 8 ...22:57
SpeedEvilThough SDXC? is also8 bit. (or can be)22:57
DocScrutinizer05no SDXC on OMAP322:58
DocScrutinizer05no idea how they cram 8 bit on 9 pads23:01
*** xes has joined #maemo23:01
DocScrutinizer05ooh, 8 pads23:02
DocScrutinizer05-gnd -VDD = 623:02
DocScrutinizer05eMMC has 8 data-I/O, clk, CMD, and of course power supply23:04
DocScrutinizer05I guess it must be faster than uSD23:05
