* trumee__ shame scrolling in xchat eats up all the cpu00:03
MohammadAGshouldn't00:05
trumee__MohammadAG, i agree :)00:06
trumee__MohammadAG, your hildonized version probably doesnt.00:07
AurigaAnyone still using an N800?00:07
lcukAuriga, I spent last weekend with my n810 if that counts00:07
AurigaIt might...00:07
AurigaAre you familiar with Blueserial?00:08
AurigaOr anything of the equivalant that works?00:08
lcukno, sorry - I guess your quest must go further00:08

BCMM_has anyone set up their n900 to automatically start sshd when on a wlan and stop it when on GPRS?00:13
*** SiggyF has quit IRC00:15
*** SiggyF has joined #maemo00:15
lcukBCMM_, hm I tohught lots of ISPs negate any kind of ssh input over gprs anyway00:17
lcukby virtue of not having a public ip00:17
lcukbut I know some isps do00:17
BCMM_yeah, but mine is unpredictable00:17
BCMM_i mean, it sometimes gives me a real ip and sometimes private00:18
BCMM_yes, that's weird00:18
lcukthats ok, why need to disable it if you dont mind?00:18
BCMM_lcuk: mostly because it doesn't need to be running00:18
BCMM_actually, what i'd really like to do would be have sshd running only when connected to a specific wlan00:18
lcukfor what reason specifically? power/cpu/security?00:19
BCMM_all of the above00:19
*** SiggyF has quit IRC00:20
BCMM_i know ssh is very secure, but mostly because it's better than carefully checking my ssh config00:20
*** smoku has joined #maemo00:21
pahartikBCMM_: Maybe appropriate script at "/etc/network/if-post-down.d/" and "/etc/network/if-pre-up.d/"...00:25
BCMM_thanks00:26
BCMM_oh, and presumably when i am online, on gprs, on a real IP, something will eventually find my ssh server and drain the battery trying to bruteforce it00:26
BCMM_hmm. do those sorts of bots usually give up if you don't allow password auth, or braindeadishly keep trying?00:27
pahartikBCMM_: My recent server logs... "resist-ssh-abuse" netfilter rule was triggered 27 times within 7 days... And it only covers single IPv4 address, no equivalent feature for IPv600:32
BCMM_pahartik: do you allow keyboard auth, or just keys?00:32
*** crs has joined #maemo00:34
pahartikBCMM_: Server rejects password authentication attempts... Netfilter rule just uses "DROP" on any connection attempts from source IP for while after few tries00:35
BCMM_bah, stupid botnets00:36

*** |thunder has joined #maemo00:41
*** Mozillion has quit IRC00:41
*** npm has quit IRC00:42
pahartikBCMM_: For me, mostly using IPv6, protecting that as well would be good, but netfilter does not yet offer similar rule feature00:42
BCMM_pahartik: have you actually had people try to bruteforce your SSH over ipv6?00:43
BCMM_i assumed that they found hosts by trying random addresses, which wouldn't really fly with v600:43
*** Mozillion has joined #maemo00:43
pahartikBCMM_: Not yet seen any signs of such at "/var/log/auth.log" of any host, but still... Most of my hosts have AAAA record on DNS00:46

*** C-S-B has joined #maemo01:27
BCMM_lardman just discovered why BME is closed!01:27
* BCMM_ ducks01:27
lardman:)01:27
BCMM_javispedro's device is suffering from a bug. it was supposed to explode.01:28
* javispedro would prefer it to explode instead of having to reenter date&time, AGAIN.01:28
wazdslow pluging in the jack sorta fixed the problem with sound01:29
wazdbut not with handset detection in general01:29
javispedrowazd: dirty receptacle?01:29
BCMM_of course, this is evidence that the N900's successor is going on sale tomorrow. BRB, gotta tell TMO.01:30
* lardman curses the fact Samsung make you use drivers for mass storage01:30
wazdjavispedro: I highly doubt it01:30
*** piggz has quit IRC01:30
lardmanand drivers that apparently don't really work at that01:30
wazdjavispedro: I actually used wired headphones with my n900 like 7 or 8 times01:31

wazdoops01:31
wazdThe problem occurred right after I pluged out my headset while calling01:32
wazdso it's definitely some sort of software issue01:33
DocScrutinizerummm01:33
MohammadAGthe N900 likes to pick headphones on its own01:33
DocScrutinizernow if only we had atime01:33
MohammadAGthe N8's phones, while 3.5mm and work fine with my laptop, don't work on the N90001:33
DocScrutinizerwait, ctime should still work01:33
MohammadAGthey do show in dmesg01:34
javispedrohum01:34
javispedroI'm at this moment researching how to trick pulse into thinking its time to switch audio routing to headphones01:34
MohammadAGcan you do that to the earpiece too?01:34
javispedronot using the usual alsa method (which works fine but means you have to guess volumes)01:34
MohammadAGI like mono audio from the earpiece01:35
DocScrutinizerjavispedro: so yo da man to tell which files to check for bogus state01:35
*** sge has quit IRC01:35
javispedroafaik, there's no editable files.01:35
javispedrothere's the "compiled" prolog rules that use hal events and the like to set a dbus message with "audio_actions" to pulse01:35
javispedroyou can actually see this message, just enable eavesdropping on system bus and run dbus-monitor01:36
DocScrutinizerthen there's no way this gets sticky on wazd 's N90001:36
MohammadAGDocScrutinizer, ping me on 26/101:36

MohammadAGwhich hcitool01:45
MohammadAGtype that01:45
Auriga?01:46
AurigaIt's a bluetooth app01:46
AurigaIs that what you mean?01:46
MohammadAG"which hcitool"01:46
MohammadAGit's a command01:46
MohammadAGNokia-N900:~# which hcitool01:46
MohammadAG/usr/bin/hcitool01:46
AurigaIt just gives me another line...01:46
AurigaIt doesn't show me anything.01:47
AurigaIs there a switch for it?01:47
MohammadAGwell01:47
MohammadAGit certainly can't be not installed01:47
*** wazd has quit IRC01:47

MohammadAGwithout it, bt wouldn't work01:51
AurigaRight okay...01:51
javispedrogood time to reflash01:51
AurigaBut my bluetooth does work in terms of transfering files.01:51
MohammadAGit shouldn't work01:51
AurigaWell it does...01:51
AurigaSo what now lol...01:52
Auriga?01:52
javispedroAuriga: what are you asking this?01:52
javispedro*why01:52
javispedroie what do you want to do?01:52
nox-are you even running maemo?01:52
nox-:)01:52
AurigaWhat's a Maemo?01:53

*** hd has quit IRC01:53

*** Wamanuz2 has quit IRC01:54
*** jpinx-ee1pc has quit IRC01:55
DocScrutinizerwut?01:56
AurigaJavispedro, as to why, I would rather not say as it might attract attention & give the wrong idea, so you work it out...01:56
*** florian has quit IRC01:56
DocScrutinizerAuriga: you're aware there are slight diffs between maemo5-fremantle and whatever version of maemo3/4 you got on N800?01:57
AurigaYes...01:57
*** jpinx has joined #maemo01:57
AurigaWhere are you going with that?01:57
DocScrutinizerAuriga: so my advice is you clearly state the fact you're talking about N800 when asking here01:58
DocScrutinizerAuriga: as answers based on fremantle won't help - evidently01:58
*** Kilroo1 has quit IRC01:59
javispedrogive the wrong idea is what probably what will happen now =)01:59
DocScrutinizerexactly01:59
javispedroeither way, pre-fremantle the little bluez apps (hcitool,rfcomm) weren't ported to the new dbus api so you're going to have to use the raw dbus api02:00
AurigaI'm confused... Can you help or not?02:00
javispedrowhich is pain02:00
DocScrutinizerAuriga: check:02:00
DocScrutinizer~question02:00
infobotit has been said that question is If you have a question and want people to give useful answers, make sure you have read this first: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html02:00
AurigaOkay... This is soundling like it would be hard work for you to help me...02:00
AurigaSo Javispedro, thank you for your input it's appreciated.02:01
DocScrutinizerAuriga: It's not what I'm in here for02:01
javispedroyes -- my suggestion: avoid the step that requires hcitool in whatever long-term plan you had in mind02:01
javispedrootherwise, search talk.maemo.org for dbus bluez or similar keywords02:01
AurigaJavispedro, thank you for pointing me in some kind of direction. It's greatly appreciated. Thank you.02:02
javispedroI keep it that if you tell us the long term plan there's a great chance someone will simplify it for you02:02
javispedrovery probably, there's no need for hcitool and you can use the GUI to connect02:02
DocScrutinizerjavispedro: he's not even willing to tell the OS version he's using02:03
*** C-S-B has quit IRC02:03

* lardman curses windows as he's probably going to need to reboot02:04
lardmanarse!02:04
AurigaDocscritizer I'm not even bothering with you as you started to almost insult me when you obviously missed the part where I said which I was using, after I was asked... Which would be fine has I insulted you first...02:04
*** jhb1 has joined #maemo02:04
lardmanAuriga: what are you trying to do that requires hcitool?02:05
DocScrutinizerAuriga: if you think I insulted you, then re-read your own statements that sound like we are obliged to help. We are NOT, and I gave reasonable advice to you as it's obvious you are new to IRC. No insult intended nor any detectable to me02:07
*** jhb has quit IRC02:07
*** trem_ has quit IRC02:11
*** kthomas_vh has joined #maemo02:12
*** sge has quit IRC02:15
AurigaWell all I can say is that you misinterpreted what was said, & while yes I am relatively new to irc in that I don't use it often, I do not feel anyone is obliged to help, as far as I am concerned, if someone has a question, they should ask, which I did. If you don't want to help, then fine it's okay. But don't start on people, as then you end up in aimless conversations like this that ironically accomplish nothing productive.02:15

*** vanadismobile has joined #maemo02:17
*** vanadismobile has left #maemo02:17
DocScrutinizerAuriga: the point is all the other conversation also was completely pointless, as everybody assumed you're talking about maemo5 on N900, while you just dropped a sidenote for the fact you are actually on N800, probably on maemo4-diablo or something even older02:18
*** sge has joined #maemo02:19
DocScrutinizerAuriga: we are willing to help, if you are willing to feed us with sufficient info so we *can* help02:19
*** e-yes_ has joined #maemo02:19
DocScrutinizerasking "are you actually running maemo" is a pun, not meant to be the standard procedure to help you out of your problem02:20
DocScrutinizerand now that we know you are on a system where hcitool is not available, we actually reached a dead end with helping you, as we can't suggest alternatives due to the fact we don't know what you want to do with hcitool02:22

korhojoa_guys, any ideas on how to restore old messages from a rsync backup i made?12:31
kpomanwhy ? isnt there an x86 version of all of those ?12:31
korhojoa_I sent in my phone for repairs, but seeing as it came back a entirely different hw revision, the emmc did not contain my device backups anymore12:31
kpomanlardman: and also is there a way to allow it to access the internet ?12:32
*** valdyn has joined #maemo12:35
ShadowJKheh12:37
ShadowJKI rsyncd contents back to n900, then used the backup utility for restore12:37
lardmankpoman: yeah, it should work by default afair, but you can fiddle with resolv.conf iirc12:38
*** LjL has joined #maemo12:41
korhojoa_ShadowJK: yeah, well. hm.12:43
korhojoa_i tried restarting after i rsynced stuff back12:43
korhojoa_turns out, it doesn't boot12:44
korhojoa_i might try doing the backup and copying stuff over now after i've done the rsync, without a restart, hope for the best and all that.12:44
korhojoa_maybe reflashing the kernel might help? i'll try that too, after getting the backup file.12:44
ArkenoiI wish could run n900 IM client over X11 on my desktop to keep history and accounts in one place. I guess it is not possible atm?12:44
ShadowJKI only rsynced /home/user12:44
korhojoa_ah. did that save your messages?12:45
*** millenomi has joined #maemo12:47
ShadowJKWith the rsync of /home, the backups by backup utility also came back12:48
ShadowJKI did restore from backup utility after rsync12:48
ShadowJKafter the reboot messages were back12:48
*** Wamanuz4 has joined #maemo12:49
ShadowJKI think the backup utility is more reliable, because it tells conversations and such to save and exit, before backup restores their database files12:49
korhojoa_ShadowJK: ah, well. /home includes MyDocs for you?12:50
ShadowJKyes12:50
korhojoa_ShadowJK: agreed, I know. Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of those backups.12:50
ShadowJK:(12:50
korhojoa_So I guess it's rsync time again, and now without a reboot to make a backup and then restore it. in hopes of not making everything blow up.12:51
*** Wamanuz3 has quit IRC12:51
RobbieThe1stWait.12:52
RobbieThe1stDo just a reflash of the rootfs, then see if the backups still exist12:52
RobbieThe1stthey probably will12:52

korhojoa_Does anyone know why there's a Mac OS directory on the vanilla emmc?12:52

RobbieThe1stkorhojoa_: But you resync'd it, didn't you?12:53
RobbieThe1st*rsync'd12:53
RobbieThe1stSo, the backup files would have been copied to the phone, but more than likely you screwed some boot file on the Optfs up in the process.12:54
psycho_oreosits probably a place holder in case mac os is about to create it12:54
psycho_oreosI don't see the point of fussing over a directory sitting there12:54
korhojoa_RobbieThe1st: rsync'd what?12:54
korhojoa_There are no backup files, since there's no MyDocs in my backup.12:55

korhojoa_RSYNC TIME! *sigh*12:56

MohammadAGUse appmefo, it's better than editing it manually :p14:07
jonaskoelkerMohammadAG: what about hildon-desktop 's menu editor?14:08
jonaskoelkerMohammadAG: in any case, I think my problems are related to uninstalling mymenu14:08

ShadowJKiirc lots of people asked on maemo-users before N900 was released, whether the "cant go drak enough" bug will be fixed. Someone @nokia said that the team in the closed light room (or something) said it's a huge effort to make step-less brightness adjustment work with ALS, but that lowest setting is going to be really low17:53
DocScrutinizersmoku: and no, it's been timeless_xchat who brought it up17:53
jonwilthe more I use my N900, the more I am glad I bought it instead of an Android handset :)17:54
ShadowJKDimmer than n8x0 for sure, but still "omg put away that lightsaber you're blinding me" level when in darkness :)17:54
SpeedEvilThe low-level hardware is unfortunately bright at minimum brightness17:54
SpeedEvilBut it's bearable17:54
timeless_xchatshadowjk: remind me in 10 or so days to smack someone17:55

*** l13tl3 has joined #maemo19:49
jonwilok, so what does BME do other than talking to the bq24150?19:49
* Arkenoi remembers GEOS communicator days, pre-symbian. It was Nokia's classic response "why you cannot do this or that" -- "it is not ours, we ordered it from the company that owns GEOS". Actually Nokia could just buy out it completely and it would be cheaper maybe, but they preferred to deal with it that way.19:50
DocScrutinizeractually, whenever bme does anything to alter the chip's genuine behaviour, then that's a braindamaged thing we would like to get rid of. Things like keeping charging enabled despite battery cell manufs say you MUST NOT do this19:50
jonwilI might go through the list of installed packages on my phone (from /var/lib/dkpg/info), find all the ones that are closed source and then find out which ones are now open source in the MeeGo repos so we can consider filing licence change requests for them. e.g. libiphb0 is now open in MeeGo but closed in Maemo19:51
ShadowJKThat's an area where software could improve the hardware behaviour, compensate for the charger's inability to distinguish between charge current and system drain19:51
DocScrutinizerbut bme doesn't19:52

ShadowJKC: int* foo; foo = malloc(sizeof(int));  C++: int *foo: foo = (int*) malloc(sizeof(int));, in C void* can be assigned to any pointer type, in C++ you need to cast20:36
MohammadAGalterego, not afaik20:36
* DocScrutinizer feels like mentioning that this string in ofono reply doesn't guarantee phonet really supports CBSMS20:36

Venemo_N900MohammadAG: not necessarily. if you care about clean code then it won't be messed up20:36

jonwilit may be that it sujpports CBSMS on some future hardware we dont have yet20:37
alteregoVenemo_N900: not yet no :)20:37
ShadowJKand of course, if someone writes: int new=0; new++; which is valid C, it'll fail to compile as C++20:37

Venemo_N900alterego: seriously, how hard is it to implement?20:37
ShadowJKVenemo_N900, which?20:37
alteregoVenemo_N900: probably more than you think, it's entire pulseaudio routing policies.20:38
Venemo_N900ShadowJK: maybe visual c does, I'm not sure20:38
alteregoSo it's not just about calls, it's about media playback, has to handle live diversion from loudspeaker to earpeice, headset, handle headset controls.20:38
ShadowJKmsvc isn't a c compiler :)20:38
alteregoI'm sure it's that that trivial, and it'll be ready soon enough :P20:38
Venemo_N900ShadowJK: oh, it has one20:38
ShadowJKIt fails on many valid C things20:39
javispedroalterego: it is trivial, but I guess they're trying to do it properly (using pulseaudio profiles for ex.) instead of the nokia way20:39
Venemo_N900ShadowJK: it is even stricter than gnu's sometimes20:39
jonwilbtw I seem to have a habit of comming into communities and doing cool stuff (like finding MCE code).20:39
ShadowJKVenemo_N900, it's "stricter" than the C standard in some cases20:39
Venemo_N900jonwil: mce code?20:39

*** FIQ|n900 has quit IRC20:46

*** Wamanuz has quit IRC20:46
javispedrodepends on context, unfortunately.20:46
MohammadAGstatic void onRendererAdded(MafwRegistry* mafw_registry, GObject* renderer, gpointer user_data);20:47
MohammadAGfor one20:47
Venemo_N900MohammadAG: except static member functions (methods) of a class which mean that the method is related to the class, but not to any particular instance20:47
Venemo_N900MohammadAG: a static method declared in a c file means that that method can only be called from that file20:47
jonwilhmmm, damn, AT+CLAC isnt supported by whatever pnatd uses20:48
alteregopnatd doesn't use anything20:48

Venemo_N900jonwil: someone tried afaik, but I can't recall the details20:53
DocScrutinizerjavispedro: \o/ thanks mate :-)20:53
javispedroasking about a relicense at this point is stupid, as the answer is "it already is"20:53
javispedrohowever20:53
javispedroasking for the missing plugins that were in fremantle isn't.20:53
*** merlin1991 has quit IRC20:54
jonwilwell what we would be asking for is that source matching fremantle be released (or rather source that is compatible with all the closed bits in fremantle that talk to MCE and its plugins)20:54
DocScrutinizerjavispedro: we'd like to get 1.8 rather than 1.11 though, for mce20:54
javispedroimo it probably already is20:54

jonwilwith ofono examination, the aim is to see if there is any way to get cbsms working on n90020:57

*** hurbu has quit IRC21:04
*** perolsen has joined #maemo21:04
DocScrutinizertrumee: luke-jr: sure. When scanning for available networks, you should, in theory, get a list of *all* BTS in vicinity, together with signal strength21:05
luke-jrDocScrutinizer: if you want to wait 10 minutes at each extreme of your house sure21:06
luke-jrand even then you don't get signal strength, just "is it there"?21:06
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: got a better idea?21:06
luke-jrDocScrutinizer: something like kismet would be nice21:06
* DocScrutinizer suggests buying a Rhode&Schwartz GSM analyzer - only 80k$21:07
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: unlike kismet, for GSM you got some 1600 channels to scan21:08
luke-jryeah, $80k for something N900 should be able to do21:08
luke-jr1600 channels, really?21:08
jonwilI remember many years ago when I used to work for Motorola (back in the days when the RAZR was king) they had that kind of fancy gear in the lab21:08
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: N900 *is* able to do that. Just not as fast as you think it should be21:08
luke-jrpretty sure nobody else's phones take 10 minutes to find service21:09
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: it's called "show available networks"21:09
DocScrutinizerpretty sure every phone takes that long to find networks, in an unknown poor signal level environment21:10
DocScrutinizeranyway, seeya folks21:10
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: ps: usually phones store channel and MNC of recently used BTS to SIM. So they get a connection rather fast on bootup. Given the location didn't change during downtime21:13
jonwilI get the feeling that reverse engineering some headers for libisi will be required to get cbsms working without replacing everything related to telephony. But hey, I like a challenge :)21:14
luke-jrDocScrutinizer: well, it could at least show signal strengths21:14
