Gear_I am using windows to do this16:43
silviofSorry - windows is out of my sight16:44
Gear_I can only really do this from windows16:44
Gear_I have a puppy linux 7" netbook that's got a raspi cobbled to it, and I REALLY can't do it from that16:45
silviofwhy not?16:45
* silviof doesnt know puppylinux16:45
Gear_because it's too dedicated to it's own crap, and the... puppylinux is like 120mb16:46
Gear_I just can't16:46
* silviof doesnt know windows too16:46
Gear_use that little thing16:46
Gear_to do any of this16:46
silviofokay - and if you use a virtualbox or livecd?16:46
Gear_no I can't use those either, this thing is too underpowered16:46
Gear_I'm on a netbook right now and I have to flash a couple of devices16:47
silviofah - the puppy runs on a raspery?16:47
Gear_the puppy runs on an original first ever netbook but that thing is doing it's own shit16:47
Gear_I shouldn't have mentioned it because it's not an option16:47
silviofand theway with virtualbox or livecd on you windown?16:48
Gear_this netbook I'm currently on isn't powerful enough for virtualbox16:48
Gear_the last time I did this it was doable with windows compatible software16:48
Gear_I'm on XP on this piece of crap but I have to get a couple of phones flashed and totally working16:48
Gear_using that "perfect setup" instructions16:49
silviofhmm you only need the flasher and I read something with exe in ~flasher16:49
Gear_http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_The_Perfect_Setup#Introduction16:49
Gear_I need two phones with this16:49
Gear_I only need the flasher? which image do I use16:50
Gear_is there n900 specific software I can use16:51
Gear_that flasher is for an n81016:51

Gear_can the "perfect setup" be done without a sim card in the phone18:38
Gear_help please?18:40
sixwheeledbeastGear_: This is a lot of "noise" for the ssu channel.18:41
Gear_I realise18:42
Gear_I can't speak in the maemo channel18:42
Gear_can you please undo that18:42
sixwheeledbeastYes, perfect setup wiki page instructions can be done without sim with wifi18:42
Gear_thanks I'll try to follow all of that18:42
Gear_will the nokia pc suite backup all my personal settings? I don't know any other way of doing a fresh install and keeping my messages phone logs calendar and the important stuff18:43
sixwheeledbeastfollow steps 1 to 5. you will need a uSD card for swap on sd18:43
DocScrutinizer51please take it to #maemo, it's pretty OT in this channel18:43
Gear_please unban me so that I can?18:43
Gear_did you check your messages with your other nick, I apologised and asked for this18:44
DocScrutinizer51you made it on my ignore list18:47
Gear_ok then I apologise and will keep on topic, please unban me18:47
sixwheeledbeastAlso note disclaimer on the top of said wiki page. I have never used pc suite. Most of what you want can be backed up with maemo's stock backup application18:47
Gear_I'll do that too, thanks18:47
Gear_wait "most" ?18:48
DocScrutinizer51I won't. You accused me of rogue things based on nothing.18:48
Gear_you won't accept my apology?18:48
DocScrutinizer51your damage done to my integrity is permanent, so will be ban18:49
DocScrutinizer51and ignore18:49
Gear_how can a stranger possibly damage your "integrity"18:50
Gear_ok, I have to ask questions here then.18:50
DocScrutinizer51go ahead, ban for OT pending18:50
Gear_unban me from the other channel so that I can stay on topic please18:51
sixwheeledbeastif you use the backup app you will see what it backs up, selectable via checkboxes.18:51
* sixwheeledbeast is afk18:51
Gear_should I purge all unnecessary apps before installing cssu18:55
Gear_it goes against the order of the "perfect setup" instructions and I have to do this first phone right, I have 3 more to do18:56
Gear_docscrutinizer: it was a private message19:08
*** arcean has joined #maemo-ssu19:08
Gear_you were the only one who publically posted it19:09
Gear_so you "damaged" your own "integrity"19:09
DocScrutinizer51which doesn't help your case19:09
Gear_ok tell me what would19:10
Gear_I've apologised twice19:10
DocScrutinizer51I've banned you twice19:10
Gear_are you mature enough to accept two apologies19:10
Gear_how about three, I also promised to stay on topic19:11
DocScrutinizer51sorry19:11
Gear_I'm not interested in anything but the software19:11
Gear_please unban to prevent off topic discussion in THIS channel19:12
*** MGerman85 has joined #maemo-ssu19:14
Gear_pretty please, with cherries on top, unban me from #maemo because that is the channel for discussion of maemo19:16
sixwheeledbeast"perfect setup" is instructed from a clean freshly flashed system.19:17
sixwheeledbeastfrom how I read it anyway.19:17
Gear_I just did that19:17
Gear_lsat time cssu came up as an update19:17
Gear_this time it doesn't19:17
sixwheeledbeastcssu will never come up as an update on vanilla, you have to install the CSSU installer from wiki page first.19:18
Gear_I can't get into root for some reason19:21
Gear_the other phone was set up about 2 years ago and I forgot everything that was done19:22
Gear_it's physically falling apart and I need to set up a few phones with the perfect setup then get omweather and some other stuff working19:22
Gear_then the damaged one can be used as a tablet for testing things19:23
Gear_can someone please just unban me from #maemo because doc is too paranoid about some neo900 thing that I don't even care about19:26
thedead1440Gear_: he is the chan admin of #maemo along with i think teotwaki and maybe one more. continuing to spite him with things like "<Gear_> are you mature enough to accept two apologies" won't do you any favours though...19:29
DocScrutinizer05thedead1440: I just wonder if http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coprolalia is a ban-able mental disaorder or just an annoyance we all have to live with19:44
thedead1440hahaha19:45
DocScrutinizer05anyway one rant-ban-appologize-unban cycle doesn't establish a rule yet19:47
thedead1440i think once it comes to disorders we have to live with them instead of banning them :p19:47
thedead1440but what's the tolerance level; that's another thing to ponder about19:47
Gear_establish more rules so less people come here19:48
Gear_great19:48
DocScrutinizer05a second ban for same issue, only 60 min after first ban got lifted, it something you hardly can fix with a second excuse and beg-your-pardon19:48
Gear_rules based around your fragile ego19:49
DocScrutinizer05massive insults in query don't help either19:49
Gear_PLEASE UNBAN, I WILL STICK TO THE TOPIC19:49
merlin1991Gear_: I'd just drop it, we don't ban for #maemo stuff in here and by now you're just throwing more logs on the fire19:49
Gear_WHICH IS N90019:50
Gear_I'd like to get weather and other stuff working so I can use it as my main and only phone, and also get these other 3 working for other people19:50
DocScrutinizer05I got him on /ignore, so please some other chanop take care about any needed +q in here19:50
Gear_this is the ssu channel which is supposed to be for devs?19:50
Gear_welcome to the land of mental problems19:51
DocScrutinizer05sorry my client diesn't allow differentiated fine grained /ignore19:51
thedead1440i was just going to say: "doc give him one last chance and if he is a nuisance ban him permanently" but Gear_ you seem more of a prick than i gave you credit for19:52
Gear_it has been two hours and this shit is boring now19:52
merlin1991well then I suggest you leave19:52
thedead1440+119:52
Gear_I would like to get these phones working19:53
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o merlin199119:53
thedead1440nobody is obliged to help you19:53
thedead1440enjoy your ride on #n90019:53
*** ChanServ sets mode: -o merlin199119:53
merlin1991come on guys I can give op to myself when I need it19:54
DocScrutinizer05;-)19:54
DocScrutinizer05wasn't sure if you're aware. Also a *hint*19:54
Gear_hint: get psychiatric help19:55
thedead1440sigh...here we go again...19:56
Gear_looking at what's going on in #maemo, due to a sort of resurgence in new people just now buying an n900 shouldn't the wiki page be updated20:06
Gear_it's not exactly clear instructions to get these things working from vanilla20:06
Gear_which isn't going to help if you want more users to bother with these devices20:08
merlin1991who says we want to?20:12
merlin1991the n900 is way past eol20:12
merlin1991nokia removed all available flashing tools and images, there are close to no replacementparts available and most of the ones you can get are some sort of scam offer from china20:12
Gear_I just downloaded a nokia flashing tool and used it20:20
Gear_and downloaded nokia pc suite which recognised the phone and I did a backup20:21
Gear_the question is why would you not want more users with these20:21
Gear_the last xp update was a notification of eol20:22
Gear_millions will still use it20:23
Gear_probably billions20:23
Gear_my question is why would you want LESS n900 users20:23
merlin1991only because millions do, doesn't make it a good idea20:28
Gear_it's a terrible idea and directly relates to why you'd actually want less open source phone users20:30
Gear_shut them all out and it becomes a stupid little dying club for (some old and unstable) enthusiasts20:31
* merlin1991 gets a little private laugh regarding old20:40
merlin1991also my point is, that the n900 is past its time, ie the neo900 or maybe a new openmoko device or anything else opensource is a great thing, just the availability of hardwarecomponents for the n900 makes it not sensible jumping on the train now20:41
ShadowJKWell it'd hopefully transfer to neo90021:11
okiasHey guys, btw. what is lastest SDK available for n900? As I recall, there was some old un-updatedable ubuntu, is there some effort create some new "development environment" ?21:32
silviofokias: I have played with vagrant and sdk, but the sdk self is THE scratchbox installation for n900 development21:52
silviofokias: https://github.com/silvio/vagrant-n900-sdk21:53
silviofokias: currently i will do the same for a docker installation, but again with the same scratchbox21:53
silviofs/i will do/i work on/21:54
infobotsilviof meant: okias: currently i work on the same for a docker installation, but again with the same scratchbox21:54
okiashmm, I'd be really interested in seeing some script, which will prepare everything. Not to have solve small issues, then I could adapt it to Gentoo21:55
okiasbut I need "recepie"21:55
okiashow to "simply" do it21:55
okiasthen I'll try package some new sw etc.21:56
silviofokias: hmm look into the link above. there is a bootstrap-script in misc folder. That is the recipe for a debian based machine.21:56
okiassilviof: so, what will be output of that script? will be something missing, or am I ready to do work?21:57
silviofhmm, you know what vagrant is?21:57
silviofafter startup and some time of wait, you have a virtual machine (ubuntu based) with a development environment21:58
okiasno :D21:59
*** mkaindl has joined #maemo-ssu21:59
okiasin fact, I remember I installed some ubuntu image, clicked on desktop, installed some headers into some scratchbox, compiled new application, uploaded package22:00
okiasI didn't much go deep into it22:00
okiassilviof: so, this vagrant give me what I had on ubuntu image?22:03
silviofokias: yep22:03
silviofnothing more, but not less22:03
okiassilviof: sounds, good :)22:04
silviofdocker is a little bit better for that, you have not the virtual-overhead. The processes run in linux-containers (lxc).22:06
silviofbut thats is a little bit more work to do.22:06
okiassilviof: anyway, I could try use your script for gentoo. I finally want just one package (ebuild) instalation. All out-of-box :P22:21
silviofokias: cool - please share your work if you have some work done.22:23
okiassilviof: I doing now xx things simuntaneously, so it's crazy, but I'll try add one :D22:24
okiassilviof: anyway, we need "group together work"22:24
silviofyes22:25
okiasbecause N900 has pretty small userbase these days22:25
okiasand that's bad for survival22:25
okiasand dev env is good start22:25
silviofYeah let grow some hope of/for neo900 ^^22:25
okiasyes!22:26
