GNUtoo|laptopwhat's that?(the valid wlan code to plugin)03:55
DocScrutinizerGNUtoo|laptop: I'm more interested in the way NOLO does secret crap like flashing cmt for example03:57
GNUtoo|laptopok03:57
wildcat86GNUtoo, at http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/os2008_hacker_edition.php , it asks for a 12 digit wlan code. Mine doesn't want to work with it.03:58

habmalaHi, I read this thread because i had LED-issues http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=55821&highlight=error+status%3A+65280+failed+set+red+led+current&page=2 it said to remove the simcard, wich I tried, and to my big suprise i worked. Does anyone know that's actually happening, a regular reboot doesn't fix it?10:42
*** rd has joined #maemo10:42
MohammadAGthe lp5532 (I think) chip gets locked up10:44
MohammadAGapparently, it keeps receiving power even when the phone is off (I'm guessing this is for the LED to show when you hold the power button)10:45
MohammadAGthe only way to reset it is to remove the battery10:45
*** yigal has quit IRC10:46
MohammadAGyou don't have to remove the SIM btw10:46
robbiethe1stMohammadAG: It doesn't happen to have a reset line, or reset command(via i2C or w/e) does it?10:47
lcukMohammadAG, reseating the sim is a really good way to ensure the battery also gets removed10:47
MohammadAGlcuk, lies, I replaced my SIM with the device on!10:48
MohammadAG:P10:48
MohammadAGrobbiethe1st, no idea, I'm not the best person to give out i2c commands10:49
robbiethe1stheh10:49
MohammadAGbtw, the sim replacement part with the device on is actually true :p10:49
habmalaokey, thanks MohammadAG10:50
habmalaand yes its for lighting up on power up, but also notifications and the keyboard backlight..10:50
habmalaooh, I just understood that last part MohammadAG.. hehe my bad ;) and yes that seems reasonable..10:52
MohammadAGI meant the blue light at startup :)10:53
habmalaYes, I re-read the message and realised I had misunderstood you ;)10:54
Evanescencecan I install hildon-desktop on my ubuntu system ?10:54

lcukMohammadAG, you did that because you are awesome :P10:59
lcukbut most mere mortals would have trouble10:59
MohammadAGoffline mode, connect charger, stop bme, remove battery, replace sim in under 25s, replace battery in under 5s, unplug charger, online mode, start bme11:00
MohammadAGeasy as 123...45...11:01
lcukMohammadAG, but that requires dexterity - like the superspeed cup stacker people11:05
lcukMohammadAG, this is how I imagine you doing what you just said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lY6fyRAGH7811:06

RST38h1.0.0 ?13:36
Andy80RST38h: but... using 1.0.0 looks like a stable version, while this one is far from being stable at the moment13:36

MohammadAGbesides rebuilding a kernel, is there a way to change the CMDLINE?14:07
MohammadAGuboot isn't an option, it can't read eMMC14:07
MohammadAG(or is there a way to decompress a zImage? I guess I could sed it)14:08
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: messing with libs is sth that needs quite a bit of expertise and taking responsibility, as other devs rely on your proper management of things like lib naming, ABI compatibility etc14:09

DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: I'm sure there are tools that are aware of the properties of the auto-decompressor code that's heading the plain compressed kernel code14:21
DocScrutinizermaybe even the decompressor itself in vmlinuz can get used to write the expanded linux kernel to somewhere14:21
*** fredix has quit IRC14:22
*** siddvicious has quit IRC14:25
MohammadAGnone of the methods are working14:26
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: I seem to recall there are scripts to `make vmlinuz` for maemo. The tools called there and files and filesizes used should straightly lead you to the answer how to decompress vmlinuz14:26
MohammadAGI wonder if it's not a vmlinuz image and meego's just using a wrong name14:26
ShadowJKI would have thought that since MeeGo uses uboot, it'd be a uImage?14:27
DocScrutinizergiven the limited amount of space on that kernel mtdpart, I bet it's a compressed image14:28
ShadowJKThough there's a long standing tradition by various distros to name bzimage and zimage as "vmlinuz" on the filesystem14:28
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: the kernel vmlinu? image is a selfextracting binary basically14:28
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: so uBoot doesn't care, no bootloader does14:30
*** _0x47 has quit IRC14:30
ShadowJKdunno, for my Sheevaplug's uboot I have to make the kernel with "make uImage", iirc14:30
DocScrutinizerload vmlinuz into ram, jump to startaddr14:30
DocScrutinizerthe kernel then basically decompresses itself14:31
ShadowJK(and then the memory address in kernel .conf and uboot have to match)14:31
DocScrutinizerof course you can 'easily' create a userland tool that does exactly the same, and stopps execution after decompressing14:33

*** dominikb has quit IRC14:42
MohammadAGit uses simple tools like gzip14:42
DocScrutinizerfine, so step 1 acomplished14:42
MohammadAGbut a zImage is self-decompressing, so the actual gzip file isn't at the start of the file14:42
MohammadAGthe gzip header is 8b1f14:42
DocScrutinizeryes, obviously while building the zImage somebody gets a file of binary decompressor code and glues that at head of zImage14:43
MohammadAGI found 008b1f0 2432 82c6 3474 32dd 96a8 8588 e377 c91314:43
DocScrutinizerfind out who's doing that and what size the used code is, and you're done14:44
MohammadAGthis isn't a maemo image, it's a meego image14:44
MohammadAGand I can't find the kernel sources for that exact image, and chances are if i do find them, they'll be heavily based off RPM stuff14:44
DocScrutinizeror you use the brute force approach and try to unzip from addr:0 to addr:30000 and see where unzip doesn't barf ;-)14:45
MohammadAGI thought of that14:46
MohammadAGis there a sane way to do it? :P14:46
DocScrutinizerfor ((i=0; i<30000; i++)); do...14:46
DocScrutinizer(bashism!)14:46
DocScrutinizertest you script with a dummy first! create a (small) .bz and add 20bytes of filler to head - feed that to your script14:48
MohammadAGhow do I break a loop in bash?14:49
DocScrutinizermake sure your script prints "20" or even stops with uncompressed .bz file14:49
DocScrutinizerhelp break14:50
DocScrutinizerbreak: break [n]14:50

*** khertan has joined #maemo20:04
DocScrutinizerit's the more intrusive patch, makes the feature non-optional to install for all those using cssu, and introduces additional potential bugs for a concept that's suboptimal20:04
MohammadAGit can be made configurable20:05
MohammadAGbut before that, it needs to work20:05
MohammadAG=> Segmentation fault20:05
DocScrutinizerwile a design along an augmented pvr-creator editing *.pvr is a plain user pkg you can install and purge any time, use it on all maemo systems, and it's more resource saving20:06

DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: to get just in vicinity of a on-par with the editing-.pvr concept, this H-D patch would at very least need a per-app config in .desktop20:20

*** robink has joined #maemo21:30
DocScrutinizerand maemo evidently obviously doesn't need any such things like wakelocks, CPU resource and suspend-to-ram, as SmartReflex and a proper driver design handle power just nicely21:30
kuzewthat I agree with21:31
*** lcuk has joined #maemo21:32
kuzewSmartReflex doesn't work for me though21:32
*** Khpy has quit IRC21:32
DocScrutinizerso all it'd need in e.g. maemo to achieve a fool-app proof thing was a kind of automatic powertop killing runaway apps21:32
kuzewthen again, I just hit a checkbox, so I don't know what they are doing is proper21:32
DocScrutinizerkuzew: what you think of is just a little part of the whole SR thing21:33
kuzewSR?21:33
*** Khpy has joined #maemo21:33
DocScrutinizersmartreflex21:33
kuzewah21:33
*** Khpy has quit IRC21:34
DocScrutinizerSR is a bunch of measures to minimize system power consumption. Most of them are on a chip level and can't get switched on/off21:35
*** Khpy has joined #maemo21:35
kuzewah, I didn't read the ARM docs21:36
DocScrutinizerothers are for example suspending of particular subsystems when not in use, like the ULPI bus from CPU to MUSB core USB controller21:36
DocScrutinizerthe /sys/*/smartreflex is only about the voltage regulators *automatic* adjustment via a dedicated I2C connection to CPU21:37
kuzewah21:37
DocScrutinizeryou still can adjust the voltages 'manually', i.e. via software, which maemo (kernel) is doing. AFAIK21:38
DocScrutinizerother aspects of whole SR are not at all affected21:39
kuzewI was going to ask, but yeah21:39
*** sq-one has joined #maemo21:39
kuzewHmm, ULPI is neat21:40
DocScrutinizeryeah, and it's from MUSB to PHY, not to CPU. I was wrong there, that's in fact yet another bus that has its own suspend control21:41
*** mc_teo` has joined #maemo21:43
DocScrutinizerand this is one of the features of SR: fine grained suspend/power control for subsystems21:43
DocScrutinizerso suspending whole system like adridiot does is a rather awkward thing21:44
kuzewyeah, I see that a _LOT_ in dmesg21:44
*** Khpy has quit IRC21:44
kuzewdoes the OMAP/DSP also have a sleep state you can put it in?21:45
*** Spydemon has joined #maemo21:45
DocScrutinizersure21:45
kuzewrather, is it being used?21:45
DocScrutinizerI'd bet it is21:45
SpeedEvil_everything_ has a sleep state.21:45
*** mc_teo has quit IRC21:46
DocScrutinizerthough that's quite probably burried inside the closed drivers for DSP21:46
*** vblazquez has quit IRC21:46
kuzewyuck, they are closed as well?21:46
DocScrutinizeryes, DSP lib is closed21:46
*** hannesw_ has joined #maemo21:47
DocScrutinizernot the kernel/sys api though, I'd guess21:47
kuzewyeah, I'd think that would be open, the drivers I would understand being closed21:47
GNUtoo|laptopI saw on oe some dsp bios stuff, but I was told at the same time that the DSP side was proprietary21:48
GNUtoo|laptopbasically there are some CPU side  FLOSS stuff21:48
GNUtoo|laptopfor instance gst-dsp21:48
*** vblazquez has joined #maemo21:48
GNUtoo|laptopbut personally I prefer the CPU21:48
GNUtoo|laptopthe CPU reads more formats21:48
GNUtoo|laptopmaybe it consumes more battery tough21:49
SpeedEvilAnd uses more power21:49
SpeedEvilIt's not - so - important if you have the screen at maximum.21:49
kuzewDSP can be more efficient at times, depending what you are doing21:49
SpeedEvilBut at minimum brightness it makes quite a difference.21:49
DocScrutinizerDSP bridge: http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Architecture/Multimedia_Domain21:49
DocScrutinizerDSP is not per se better on power conservation. It's simply faster on some special tasks21:51
kuzewyes21:51
DocScrutinizerDSP easily might eat more power when idling than the CPU21:51
kuzewyou'd hope it be in a sleep state then21:52
DocScrutinizerthat's the topic we just discussed21:52
*** SpeedEvil has quit IRC21:53
*** SpeedEvil has joined #maemo21:54
DocScrutinizeryou should't expect e.g. mp3-playback via DSP to be always better on power than doing same thing via CPU21:54
DocScrutinizershould *not*21:54
SpeedEvilIMO, you probably should, if you are just asking about mp3 decoding.21:56
kuzewwelll21:56
SpeedEvilAnd not streaming to the DAC21:56
SpeedEvilBut...21:56
SpeedEvilThat reminds me - I meant to look at the functional block diagram, and find out if the DMA unit can stay awake without the CPU core, DMAing a decoded raw audio to the DAC21:57
kuzewyou mean DMAed into the DSP then to the DAC21:58
DocScrutinizerwell, the DSP can decode your whole song in 0.4s while CPU takes 3s for that. But then the DSP keeps eating power for the rest of the song, pushing bytes out the DAC, while CPU could sleep most of the time, or even offload to a DMA and sleep all of the time21:58
SpeedEvilI mean - if the DSP can be used to decode - say - 3s of audio, and go back to sleep, and then the CPU setup DMA to push this to the speakers, go back to sleep, and wakeup when there is .5s later21:59
SpeedEvil.5s left, and repeat21:59
DocScrutinizeryes, that'd maybe the optimum, depending on how much better DSP is, compared to the overhead in CPU setting it up and moving data around22:00
SpeedEvilwhere 3 may be 3022:00
DocScrutinizerit's a non trivial evaluation22:01
*** khertan has quit IRC22:02
DocScrutinizeryou'd finally have to implement both concepts and compare22:02
*** jonne has joined #maemo22:02
SpeedEvilIndeed.22:02
SpeedEvilWell - not really.22:03
SpeedEvilThe 'if it can DMA it out to the DAC' is a clear winner if it's the CPU or the DSP doing it22:03
SpeedEvilthe rest is a matter of question.22:03
