IRC log of #maemo for Sunday, 2014-08-10

DocScrutinizer51bencoh: do you think it's just a coincidence that such idiotic mails happen when I'm in holiday and supposed to be offline?00:00
bencohhmmm00:01
DocScrutinizer51I'd put that mail on public tmo thread right away, if only my internet woudn't suck donkeyballs. @council, whomever: please do!!!00:04
DocScrutinizer51win7mac outright denies tht ouncil is the highest authority proxy of community and suggests coucil "shall accept rules of the eV"00:05
DocScrutinizer51which is so weird I dunno words for it00:06
DocScrutinizer51also HiFo always been meant to "handle the assets of maemo" which in my book is a synonym for the cashier role. First Rob tried to redefine HiFo to be uebr-council, now win7mac does00:08
kerioDocScrutinizer51: haha he must be smoking some real good shit00:08
kerioHiFo is the council's bitch00:09
DocScrutinizer51always been00:09
*** mkaindl has left #maemo00:10
DocScrutinizer51but for win7mac reality splits into several parallel universes in which in one I claim that there are TWO councils, and in another one council dissolved when we actually unified it00:11
DocScrutinizer51in a third council turned into some fractional entity of HiFo obeying wjatever HiFo board decides00:12
DocScrutinizer51and in a fouty parallel universe, all this even makes sense to everybody with a sane mind00:14
DocScrutinizer51while I scared away Rob due to me not undertsanding the perfect sense this makes00:14
DocScrutinizer51I just notice winUmac being *very* vocal and just 'hijacking' the less experienced novice council members00:16
bencoh:D00:16
DocScrutinizer51I mean, what shit is that to show up on every council meeting and sending mails to council, always 'speaking in stern voice' lile you were the one to decide?00:19
DocScrutinizer51while in fact you got no voice at all00:19
Sicelofreemangordon: on my N900 with KP52, CSSU-T, no O/C, I installed the tweaks for 720p videos. Since that day, I have noticed that video playback is bad -- many times N900 just shows the dots with nothing happening. FWIW, I'm not trying to play 720p videos (because i guess that's what really needs O/C).00:24
Siceloany idea how i can debug what's up?00:25
bencohwhat are those tweaks btw ?00:29
Sicelohttp://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=7769500:31
Siceloi probably could just remove .. but would like to find out what's up00:32
DocScrutinizer51Sicelo: first up check syslog00:34
Siceloi saw reference to pulseaudio00:35
DocScrutinizer51I see similar issue without any tweaks installed. Syslog often tells sth about 'can't instantiate dsp node' OWTTE00:35
DocScrutinizer51PA also a good candidate, yes00:36
DocScrutinizer51syslog is your best friend, just a tad verbous at times, with lots of noise and random stuff to ignore00:37
Sicelook. tbh, i don't play videos too often, so i've gleft this 'problem' alone for the last couple of months. but now i have a "need" to play videos on my N900 frequentyl00:38

Win7Macand no, that doesn't come just by coincidence when someone is on holiday, but from RzR's request during last meeting: http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-meeting-irclog/%23maemo-meeting.2014-08-05.log.html#t2014-08-05T23:21:1001:13
DocScrutinizer51o the NEW council. WTF?01:21
DocScrutinizer51already the headline/subject insinuating that lesson-like tone the complete original amil had, to teach NEW councilors how stuff *really* works, from the lips of a prophet who just signs with his nickname to put the authorization of whole mail into  right context01:25
Win7Macit is my POV01:26
DocScrutinizer51AHA!01:26
Win7Macsure01:26
DocScrutinizer51then why the fuck does it sound like it was from chair of HiFo?01:27
Win7Macno clue?01:27
DocScrutinizer51exactly. this is pretty obvious01:27
DocScrutinizer51throughout the whole maill01:28
*** louisdk has quit IRC01:30
Win7MacI signed with my full name + nick, no idea what "authorization" your speaking of ^^, never intended to speak on HiFos' behalf01:34
Win7Mac...though they very likely agree ;)01:35
DocScrutinizer51no, HiFo did NOT agree, even before your time. And you assuming they'd do agree now and writing your mail in a way as if they already did is a pretty rogue approach01:36
DocScrutinizer51you rvidently lack lots of well documenteed historic background and compensate that by making up your own version of how the situation allegedly is and was01:38
DocScrutinizer51we all appreciate your hard work to make the much needed eV come true01:39
DocScrutinizer51but please do"mt try to redefine stuff to your liking01:39
bencohlooks like no harm intented then ;)01:40
bencoh-t+d01:40
Win7Macthen state your version so that others may make up their own mind and decide what to believe or not01:40
Win7Mac...to my liking... funny...01:41
Win7MacWhat interest do I have then, in your imagination?01:42
DocScrutinizer51irrelevant01:44
DocScrutinizer51"d 'my' version is well documented, publicly01:44
DocScrutinizer51I'm not going to spoonfeed it to you sentence by sentence, quoting links to original sources01:45
DocScrutinizer51more than I already did01:45
DocScrutinizer51more on that in roundabout three weeks when I might be back to this mess from my well deserved holiday01:46
Win7Macand the others...? please share your thoughts!01:54

DocScrutinizer51maybe the most of 'the others' wait until they heard of more than only your persona POV before they share their thoughts. E.G. council might want to discuss this before answering, and that might happen on other channels than tmo02:03
Win7Macaha, however it fits your liking I guess, but acusing me of acting "behind the scenes"... http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog/%23maemo.2014-08-09.log.html#t2014-08-09T23:54:1702:10
DocScrutinizer51blablabla02:14
freemangordonWin7Mac: right now I have no time to read the mail in question, probably will do it tomorrow. However, so far my understanding is that you think HiFo is some kind of what Nokia used to be for Maemo council back in the times Nokia supported Maemo. Which is plain wrong, IMO02:14
freemangordonHiFo is the organizational entity to officially represent the community. and that's all (simplified)02:16
freemangordonHiFo is not the council's boss, more like on the opposite02:16
Win7Macok, and council is?02:17
freemangordonagain, IMO. And as you know I am not a lawyer, so I might be wrong as well02:17
freemangordonthe council is defined on the maemo wiki02:17
freemangordoniirc02:17
Win7Macsure. and that needs adoption02:17
freemangordonwho decided that?02:18
freemangordonand when?02:18
DocScrutinizer51says who?02:18
Win7Mac...to reflect the situation?!02:18
freemangordonthe only way one can redefine what maemo council is is a referendum, iirc the rules02:18
DocScrutinizer51yes02:18
Win7Macwell, read the mail first then...02:19
Win7Macin whole...02:19
freemangordonwill do tomorrow02:19
Win7Macthanks!02:19
DocScrutinizer51but Win7Mac  got told about that 3 dozen times already, he ignores it02:19
freemangordonI was just sharing thoughts about what I have heard from you so far02:19
* freemangordon is afk for a while02:20
Win7MacDocScrutinizer05, where did I ignore that, I'm actually suggesting a referendum!02:20
*** bef0rd has quit IRC02:21
*** LauRoman has quit IRC02:21
DocScrutinizer51he first defines "the situation" as he sees it, then demands action from council taken to adoopt rules to match what he thinks is "the situation" and ignores that the council is bound to rules on what it can do02:22
DocScrutinizer51yeah a referendum approving your POV to be real and binding for council, and only as a last resort when council isn't willingto simply do rogue and ignore the council rules and follow *your tules* instead02:24
* DocScrutinizer51 definitely afk/offine now02:25
Win7Macwhat's wrong with "- specify council duties so that it remains the major active party of community work AND honours the fact that Nokia got replaced by our own community organization, not only in regards to board"02:25
Win7Macfreemangordon: correct, HiFo is not the council's boss, but council, as part of the organization, has to follow organizations' rules02:30
DocScrutinizer51well, pretty much everything is wrong in that. I could start with explaining that council's responsibilities are defined and continue with elaborating about nonsense to "replace" Nokia - as freemangordon alrewady said. and so on. But whatt's a real problem with you: you can't accept a 'later please, busy now'02:31
DocScrutinizer51you even go to insult people when they refuse to follow your requests instantly02:34
DocScrutinizer51we're not your slaves02:34
DocScrutinizer51and I'm not available now, particularly for this topic and for you, for the next 3 weeks02:35

*** bef0rd has joined #maemo02:37
*** AndrewX192 has quit IRC02:37
freemangordonWin7Mac: the council should follow its own rules, as defined by the community. However, I just read that mail and honestly, I am not sure what stands behind your wish to somehow redefine what is the cashier’s(HiFo) role and what is the executive's(the council) role. HiFo was established as an legal entity to represent the community where and when needed and that's all. It was never meant to be the driving force or to draw the future of the community. thi02:39
freemangordons is the council's role. IIUC. Keep in mind that I may got confused by that wall of text and missed the idea02:39
freemangordonWin7Mac: And I still don't get it why moving HiFo from USA to Europe should make any difference in the regard on who does what.02:43
freemangordons/ on / of /02:43
infobotfreemangordon meant: Win7Mac: And I still don't get it why moving HiFo from USA to Europe should make any difference in the regard of who does what.02:43
DocScrutinizer51clearly must not02:44
*** e2718 has joined #maemo02:44
Win7Macwho does what doesn't change02:44
DocScrutinizer51~xy02:44
infobotwell, xy is The XY problem: You want to do X, but don't know how. You think you can solve it using Y, but don't know how to do that, either. You ask about Y, which is a strange thing to want to do. Just ask about X.02:44
Win7Macand i don't mean to redefine what is the cashier’s(HiFo) role...02:46
*** Venusaur has quit IRC02:46
Win7MacBut I don't see HiFo/MC eV as cashier only, that simply goes too short02:47
DocScrutinizer51then you're simply mistakwn02:48
freemangordon:nod:02:48
*** e27182 has quit IRC02:48
freemangordonanyway, I am going to have some sleep, will re-read that mail tomorrow with a more rested brain, maybe I will get the whole idea02:49
freemangordonnight guys02:49
Win7Macthanks fmg, nite o/02:49
DocScrutinizer51and when you don't beleive me and freemangordon and all the others who told you, ask woody who 'invented' HiFo02:50
Win7Maclets continue this on tmo02:50
Win7MacDocScrutinizer05: no wonder you don't WANT to understand...02:52
*** Win7Mac has quit IRC02:53
DocScrutinizer51pleqse stop that nonsense, it's not only bad style, it also heats up the channel temperature02:54
DocScrutinizer51and it contributes absolutely ZILCH to resolve this issue which is YOU disagreeing with roundabouteverybody else (not just me) and alsol you ignore HiFo's own blogs, all tmo threads about HiFo and council and even deny to ask your peers in HiFo who most liely also do NOTagree with you onthis02:57

*** arcean has quit IRC03:10
DocScrutinizer51when for some reason you want to change the way maemo community and organizationl entites work, then there's exactly ONE way to push that: start a thread on tmo or even better on ML and and begin with explaining the problem you think you spotted. Then list your ideas how to improve/fix the issue, first things first. And finally ask for (constructive) criticism, create a synthesis from your and other members' contributions and notions and tr03:21
DocScrutinizer51y to convince *the community* to support your plan/synthesis. This regularly will result in *council* starting a referendum to fulfill what *community* wants03:21
*** pdz has quit IRC03:25
DocScrutinizer51suggesting a referenum to council in a private email doesn't make sense since council would at least need to do the same first 3 steps like I suggested to you above03:25

DarkFoxHello world, just wondering if anyone here could give me a number to expect to charge a N900 from flat to bootable ?10:14
* DarkFox has had an N900 charging for a good 5-10 minutes now and not booting... Not sure the exact power given from my laptop but I haven't had this issue with my other N900 [when that worked].10:14

sixwheeledbeast~flatbattrecover10:16

kerio~flatbatrecover10:16
infobot~pong10:16
infobotRemove battery for 1 minute. Insert battery. Plug powered ***NOKIA WALLCHARGER*** to device. Watch steady amber. Let sit and charge. Do NOT try to boot. After 30 min, you got either a) a booted up N900, b) flashing amber which means you can boot, c) steady amber shut off -> start over again with ~flatbatrecover while already searching for a new battery. CAVEAT! Only works when ~rootfs OK (no ~bootloop)10:16
keriogot it10:16

DarkFoxHehe10:16
DarkFoxSweet10:16
DarkFoxThanks guys10:16
DarkFoxI shall try this10:16
* DarkFox was trying different batteries; but wallcharger... Let me find that ;)10:17
DarkFoxWait; I see amber light now with USB; didn't have this before.10:18
DarkFoxShould I just leave it with USB power ?10:19
* DarkFox did find the charger :P10:19
*** dhbiker has quit IRC10:19
DarkFoxSwapped over10:20
* DarkFox leaves it for 30 minutes10:21
* DarkFox sets up a backup battery (N95 + it's charger)10:21
kerioDarkFox: it will barely charge via usb during emergency charging10:21
kerioit's like 100mA10:21
keriothe wallcharger (in emergency charging) charges 250mA10:22
DarkFoxkerio: I've switched, so charger is active; I'm just about to plug in my N95 to the UPS as well.10:22
DarkFoxN95 = great backup N900 charger... As proven with my first N900 whose USB port is dead.10:23
DarkFoxI'd soldier it back on - if the screws weren't butchered.10:23
DarkFoxHence I have 2 :)10:23

Sicelo~bootloop10:30
infobotit has been said that bootloop is when your device has broken rootfilesystem, so during reboot it fails on some service startup or kernel module load and thus reboots. This *drains* battery! And you can't reflash to stop bootloop when battery is drained. Recharge your battery by other means before reflashing. E.g. using ~rescueOS. Or external charger or BL-5J compatible other device.10:30

infobotrumour has it, rescueos is http://n900.quitesimple.org/rescueOS/10:31
DarkFoxNice10:31
kerioSicelo: can't even load rescueos if the battery's too low10:32
Siceloyes, i am aware. my N900 is fine ;)10:33
Sicelobut of course, it is BME which 'rushes' to shut the device down, so you actually can load rescueOS when the battery is less than BME Threshold (3248mV, right?), but as long as it is above 3000mV10:36

DarkFoxNo it doesn't...15:29
jon_ypersonally, I don't consider BSD Free software15:29
jon_ybut nvm me, I'm starting to rant15:30
DarkFoxPlease; no license wars... BSD is an open source license. FreeBSD is an operating system where basically everything is licensed BSD. This allows you to create something propritary (such as sony's playstation) without the requirement to return the code.15:30
DarkFoxEven in Sony's case, they do send code back to the community.15:30
DarkFoxApple too.15:30
DocScrutinizer51please no os wars here15:30

DocScrutinizer51on N900 fremantle with powerkernel is best you can get regarding support for all hw and openness as well15:31
DarkFoxjon_y: BSD is more free (less restrictive) then GPL.15:31
DarkFoxjon_y: Fact is over.15:32
jon_yif they're sending back code then there is no problem with GPL15:32
jon_ynope, it is less Free because it does not protect Freedom at all15:32
DarkFoxjon_y: GPL is a problem with licensing... It puts restraints on anyone who wants to do anything with it.15:32
DarkFoxHassle and can lead to ugly legal issues.15:32

DocScrutinizer51which is plain charge in mAh now metered to have gone into cell18:01
drathiroh when connected...18:02
drathirneed to first end reflashing and enable sshd usbip and wlan connection...18:02
DocScrutinizer51it's an incremental integrating value18:02
DocScrutinizer51after swapping battery it will start at bogus value. then you discharge cell complely and then charge it. BQ27200 chip will integrate the charge going into cell during charge and showing it as NAC18:04
drathirhttp://pastebin.com/NiqBCqt518:05
DocScrutinizer51so during charging empty cell NAC goes up from 0 to ideally 130018:05
drathirthanks i check great script btw...18:06
DocScrutinizer51I'm running bq27200.sh 60 | tee batlog.txt18:07
drathirDocScrutinizer51: thanks logging..18:24
* drathir wonder need to switch the working screen when perform to flashing device?18:37
DocScrutinizer51actually after completing charging it tells you the amount that went *into* the cell during charging. But the really interesting value is the difference of this value minus the last value it reads before it shuts down on DIScharge. NAC will count down from e.g. 1266 during discharge but may shut down when NAC claims there were 200 left over. So true discharge capacity of cell is 1266-200=106618:38
DocScrutinizer51a valid discharge cycle (VDQ=1) will ake bq27200 chip *learn* this value of 1066 as new real max capacity of cell18:41
drathiroh... in that case is possible that chip have incorrect data and not charging the battery to full?18:45

DocScrutinizer51actually that's pretty much exactly what flasher mk II protocol does as well20:33
DocScrutinizer51aiui20:34

DocScrutinizer51actually 'flashing' vanilla only means: partition and format the eMMC, then copy a few files to /home and to MyDocs20:45
kerioyeah yeah20:51
keriodoes it even copy files to /home?20:52
kerioi thought it was done during firstboot20:52
DocScrutinizer51prolly20:55
DocScrutinizer51I'm not sure20:55
DocScrutinizer51it*could* copy files to /home20:56
Palidir /opt is some symlink to /home20:58
Paliand it /home/user is created at boot time if does not exists20:59
Paliand stock rootfs has some script which will rm -rf opt && optify20:59
Paliand that script is run only once (store some info if was started or not)20:59
Paliflashing eMMC should call mkfs on /home partition and equivalanet of dd if=mmc_image of=/dev/...21:00

bencohI settled for ("real") xterm21:36
*** Kabouik has quit IRC21:41
DocScrutinizer51hmm, I prolly never even tested that21:43
bencohit's faster than libvte (gnome implementation, used in osso-xterm) ... really noticeable with curses applications (hello irssi over ssh), and huge impact when scrolling, especially with "small" fonts21:49
bencoh(libvte is not the only one to blame, freetype has its part in this ... and xterm can use fixed fonts without freetype)21:50

PaliDocScrutinizer51: no, fiasco emmc image contains *raw* fat32 fs dump and that is imaged directly as MyDocs22:32
*** dhbiker has quit IRC22:32
Palino tar is used22:33
Palithis is reason why mmc image is too big22:33
Paliit is not compressed and contains empty fat blocks....22:33
DocScrutinizer51Pali: then resizing partitions by imply editing numeric size in vanilla image would be a terribly bad idea, nevertheless it allegedly works22:35
DocScrutinizer51also when you want to do a raw fat32 data transfer then you invariably of used size of data need to dd the size of whole 28GB of volume22:36
DocScrutinizer51which wouldn't make *any* sense22:37
*** Pali has quit IRC22:38
DocScrutinizer51maybe you could dd a complete fat32 volume of only 500MB size and then resize it with some parted tool22:39
*** Pali has joined #maemo22:44
DocScrutinizer51anyway afaik flashing vanilla is mostly cruft spamming your mydocs with useless 'content', except of the partitioning and mkfs which you could do without any vanilla image as well22:44
*** Venusaur has quit IRC22:45
DocScrutinizer51so discussing how that cruft content gets stored in vanilla imae and how it's written to eMMC is maybe just of academic interest22:46
Palithat is part of mk II protocol22:48
DocScrutinizer51the partitioning and mkfs is clearly the more useful part of this 'flashing' procedure and it would help a lot to come up with an alternative to using flasher and flashing vanilla to get this established22:48
Palisome info how cfdisk and mkfs is called22:49
Paliplus dump of image which is dd-ed22:49
DocScrutinizer51exactly22:49
Palithis is in mmc fiasco image22:49
DocScrutinizer51I guess mkII is putting maemo into some single-user mode (init 1 or init s) and then transfers a few cli commads to it, to make cfdisk and mhfs of maemo do their job on eMMC22:53

Paliit is packet orientated protocol it support transfering commands and data...22:58
Palilook at 0xFFFF doc/ dir22:58
*** _rd has quit IRC22:58
Paliand that protocol is used via usb (for normal flashing) and also via TCP for local on device flashing22:59
Paliyou have "flasher" command on n90022:59
Paliused with param --local22:59
Palibut it use TCP connection to localhost22:59
Paliand not using raw /dev/... access22:59
Paliserver is called softupd (which listening on usb and on localhost port)23:00

infobotwell, rootsh is an easy way to get root and it's found here: http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/rootsh/, or http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/rootsh/, or <ShadowJK> rootsh gives you "sudo gainroot", to get root privs but user environment (similar as "su"), and "root", which gives you root privs root env (similar to "su -")23:33
