| foowolf | hi | 17:01 |
|---|---|---|
| foowolf | anyone on? | 17:02 |
| lcuk | foowolf, yes | 17:04 |
| lcuk | hi | 17:04 |
| foowolf | hi | 17:04 |
| foowolf | got a Q | 17:04 |
| foowolf | don't know if anyone here can help me out | 17:05 |
| *** jaakviit has quit IRC | 17:05 | |
| * lcuk suddenly remembers he is a mind reader | 17:06 | |
| foowolf | got a n900... want to change the startup buttons that come across when you start the device | 17:06 |
| foowolf | need to know if the size matters as I've got the .png but they're not the same as the default | 17:07 |
| lcuk | startup buttons? | 17:07 |
| foowolf | it's the little dots that move back and foward | 17:08 |
| foowolf | the default ones are 192x48 but my new ones are 219x220 | 17:09 |
| foowolf | indicator_update.png files | 17:10 |
| lcuk | normally with such things, keeping the same size matters, but try it | 17:10 |
| foowolf | lol, don't want to brick it...... | 17:11 |
| lcuk | then keep your new one at the same size | 17:12 |
| foowolf | is there a way to get into root if it doesn't switch on...so I can change them back through commandline, | 17:12 |
| lcuk | not easily | 17:12 |
| foowolf | my new ones are a completely different pic | 17:12 |
| lcuk | wheres the file kept | 17:12 |
| lcuk | im gonna delete mine and reboot | 17:12 |
| foowolf | it's a pic of a wolf with it's eyes turning red | 17:13 |
| lcuk | lol share it ill test for you now quickly | 17:13 |
| foowolf | 1 sec | 17:13 |
| lcuk | i just took a backup this morning and reflashed so if i have to do it again its not end of the world | 17:13 |
| foowolf | I don't normally use irc, how can I send them to you? | 17:14 |
| lcuk | liquid@gmail.com | 17:14 |
| foowolf | give me a few mins I'll send them to ya | 17:15 |
| foowolf | thanx | 17:15 |
| lcuk | foowolf, for future reference, take yourself a backup and try :) | 17:16 |
| lcuk | the very worst you can do is need to reflash and reinstall - but its all automated for you | 17:16 |
| foowolf | yea I'm going to look into backing up, what method do you recomend? | 17:23 |
| lcuk | theres a backup tool with maemo itself :) | 17:23 |
| lcuk | it backs up to the internal card - but survives a reflash | 17:24 |
| lcuk | so you can just restore again afterwards | 17:24 |
| foowolf | does it back up all apps installed or do you have to reinstall them again after? | 17:24 |
| foowolf | BTW sent you the files | 17:24 |
| lcuk | it backs up the list and config of repositories and the list of files | 17:25 |
| lcuk | after restoring you are given the option to restore the applications too | 17:25 |
| lcuk | ok ta | 17:25 |
| foowolf | ok | 17:25 |
| foowolf | so if I brick it then I reflash then reinstall the backup and the phone is back to the state of when the backup was made? | 17:27 |
| lcuk | yes | 17:28 |
| lcuk | you can readup about the backup from numerous official sources | 17:29 |
| lcuk | applications installed from extras and devel may not all adhere to actually backing things up, but the principle pre installed applications do | 17:29 |
| lcuk | ie some apps might not save their configurations | 17:30 |
| foowolf | great....I'll look into it, I'm using maemo.org a lot any other sites you recomend? | 17:30 |
| foowolf | ok | 17:30 |
| lcuk | maemo.org has pretty much everything under one roof | 17:30 |
| foowolf | great | 17:30 |
| lcuk | rebooting now | 17:31 |
| lcuk | omg theres a wolf with red eyes! | 17:31 |
| foowolf | lol | 17:31 |
| lcuk | thats cool | 17:31 |
| lcuk | aspect ratio seems ok too | 17:31 |
| foowolf | yea thought so too | 17:31 |
| lcuk | :) cool beans | 17:31 |
| foowolf | so should be fine to install and use then....lol | 17:32 |
| foowolf | I was just sitting here thinking "F%$k I hope I haven't just bricked your phone" | 17:33 |
| lcuk | foowolf, nahhh | 17:33 |
| lcuk | these things are normally part of a greater theme | 17:33 |
| lcuk | you should package this up and let others have it :) im gonna have glowing eye wolf on mine now till i next reflash :) | 17:34 |
| lcuk | thank you! | 17:34 |
| foowolf | cool, might get that far not sure at this stage....but the size doesn't matter then.....great | 17:34 |
| foowolf | your more then welcome m8 | 17:35 |
| foowolf | thanx for testing it out for me | 17:35 |
| lcuk | foowolf, people are discussing this for startup too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3pvdFpA1II http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=52239 | 17:37 |
| foowolf | the next thing will be the video, have something in mind, I'm a bit anti iphone so you can imagine the thing's that are going through my head when I think of what to put on the video.....LOL | 17:37 |
| lcuk | yeah theres some really cool bootvids around | 17:37 |
| foowolf | yea saw that thread yesterday but had to go to work so put it off till later to read | 17:38 |
| foowolf | well thanx for helping me out m8, hopefully I can return the favour some time and help you out when I'm not a reflash virgin anymore and not afraid to brick it if something goes wrong....lol | 17:43 |
| foowolf | talk to ya later m8.......take it easy | 17:45 |
| lcuk | foowolf, #maemo has lots of activity and options to jump in and get involved | 17:47 |
