ggoebelmaemo.org seems geared toward n900, is n8x0 still supported?00:11
Sazpaimonthere's a few dedicated n8x0 users on the forum00:11
ggoebelgood to hear00:12
ggoebeljust picked my first n800 up off ebay00:12
* lcuk ponders requesting maintainers for n8x000:13

*** Roomerlol has quit IRC00:14
ggoebellooking for a website or instructions which will bring me quickly up to speed.00:14
ggoebellooking for maintainers is hard when dealing with old hardware and volunteer projects00:15
ggoebelhttp://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N8x000:15
ggoebelappears like it may have stalled...00:15
*** OkropNick has quit IRC00:15
ggoebelwas hoping being a linux device the support might be long lived00:16
Sazpaimoni thought meego has a 256MB minimum00:16
Sazpaimonor is that for x8600:16
Sazpaimonfor ram that is00:16
user0hello :)00:17
user0hows everyone today?00:17
andre__ggoebel: it is linux based, but if those parts that are closed source don't receive updates by its owners those parts are stuck.00:17
javispedro"a few" is, like, 3.00:17
*** trumee has quit IRC00:17

Sazpaimonunless you swing that way00:18
user0MohammadAG, DocScrutinizer , how are you guys doing today?00:18
user0just sent my n900 back to the shop for them to deal with the problem00:19
*** Kilroo has joined #maemo00:19
jacekowskiggoebel: linux has shorter support than windows00:20
rm_worklcuk: yeah, i *hope* ABL is still functioning properly and availble from extras00:20
jacekowskiggoebel: lot shorter00:20
jacekowskiggoebel: unless you can do it yourself00:20
*** trumee has joined #maemo00:21
*** flailingmonkey has joined #maemo00:21
Sazpaimonyeah, usually when a new version of a linux OS comes out the old one is quickly abandoned00:21
Sazpaimonwindows at least has a long term support cycle00:22
derfWindows also has a much longer release cycle.00:22
ggoebelnice... found http://www.gronmayer.com/it/00:23
rm_workwindows also has fairly tight-fisted control over what happens at the OS level :P00:23
*** kama has joined #maemo00:23
derfThey've already dropped support for the version two versions ago, it's just that was released in 2001.00:23
ggoebeljacekowski: depends on whether you're talking about driver support or programming apis00:23
*** javispedro has quit IRC00:23
Sazpaimonderf, windows xp was a special exception00:23
jacekowskiggoebel: both00:23
Sazpaimonin microsoft's defense they created a new OS, canned it, and then made another while XP was out00:24
ggoebeljacekowski: beg to differ... but suppose we beg off the usual back and forth and agree to disagree?00:24
Sazpaimontalking about longhorn -> vista00:24
rm_workggoebel: also http://ageofikon.com/packrat/00:25
ggoebelrm_work: thanks00:25
jacekowskiggoebel: get any linux app that was made 10 years ago, and try to run it now00:25
lcukrm_work, :) https://github.com/lcuk/liqbase-playground/blob/master/sub_published/liqcontrolpanel/liqbrightness.c#L4800:25
lcukstill needs wiring up correctly!00:26
rm_workheh00:26
rm_workyeah00:26
*** sq-one has quit IRC00:26
rm_workit's the wiring up that was annoying as @#&$ originally00:26
rm_workwhich is why i had to do it :P00:26
rm_workotherwise i feel like it would have been done00:26
rm_workoh, and figuring out how to make a GTK statusbar applet actually LOOK right00:26
rm_work>_<00:26
lcukheh yeah00:27
lcuki think it took several weeks to find a single define function00:27
rm_workyerp00:27
rm_workand garage.maemo.org's first successfully paid bounty :P00:27
* rm_work bought jott a bear00:27
rm_work*beer!00:27
rm_workNOT A BEAR00:27
rm_workOH GOD00:27
* rm_work is mauled00:28
jacekowskilcuk: why not link it at compile time?00:28
lcukjacekowski, complex00:28
lcukjust needs a switch() statement really00:28
rm_worklcuk: ROFL: "// from the bowels of abl"00:29
lcukbut had other things work related sidetracking00:29
lcukrm_work, ;)00:29
*** etrunko has quit IRC00:30
rm_workwas gonna say you needed to set the scaling factors properly, but then saw your comment at the top when looking for the defines :P00:31
rm_workbecause the system method is like... WTF00:31
rm_workthe formula for that number is retarded00:31
rm_workT_T00:31
rm_workhave you looked at autodetection for choosing the method yet?00:31
rm_workthe way we did it was based on the hardware revision >_> which is... bleh00:32
rm_workbut works00:32
lcukrm_work, not looked in that file for ages00:32
rm_worki tend to write hacky code to get the job done at first and then go back to fix things once it actually WORKS end to end, doing regression testing as I go00:32
lcukI did however find all the sketches relating to its design00:32
rm_workthat's one of those things we never really found a better method for00:33
rm_worklol yeah00:33
rm_worki remember, you linked them :P00:33
rm_workwould like to see the end product at some point00:33
rm_workit sounds like it'd work nicely00:33
rm_worki'm imagining putting my finger at the top, dragging left/right and also down, then getting to the next level and repeating, and again00:34
rm_workwonder if it actually works that smoothly in reality00:34
*** jpe_ has quit IRC00:34
rm_workthough you have to meter the requests because otherwise you spam DSME and it goes whacko00:34
lcukhttp://liqbase.net/liq.20110615_223401.brightness.scr.png00:36
lcukit would work today if it was wired up00:36
lcukI however dunno which to do, send me a patch00:36
*** user0- has joined #maemo00:36
lcukrm_work, disco brightness ;)00:37
lcukshould have noise whilst you wiggle00:37
*** flailingmonkey has quit IRC00:37
rm_worklol yeah00:37
rm_worklcuk: what do you need a patch for? your file looked good, besides the scaling00:37
rm_workwhich is only really necessary for the sys method, i believe00:37
*** user0 has quit IRC00:37
rm_workwhich is only on 770 <_<00:37
lcuki am currently setup on ideapad00:38
rm_workah00:38
rm_workyeah00:38
lcukmy n900 is in user mode and scratchbox isnt running00:38
rm_worki never got HAL support functioning00:38
rm_workdoes Meego use HAL?00:38
rm_workor DSME still00:38
rm_workif it still uses DSME... well, you have the code00:38
*** kama has quit IRC00:39
*** lxp1 has joined #maemo00:40
rm_workABL was super useful for getting a real job BTW... I got to say things like "have experience with translation of applications using l10n :P00:40
rm_work"00:40
lcukhehe indeed00:40
lcukI am heading to London this weekend00:41
rm_workcool00:42
rm_workI'm not :(00:42
rm_workI wish I was00:42
lcukheh00:42
rm_workthat'd be awesome00:42
lcukgoing to this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/blog/2011/jun/01/hactivate00:42
rm_workalso a long and expensive flight <_<00:42
lcukyou would fall asleep in the mcdonalds :P00:42
rm_workLOL00:42
rm_workpartnered with Nokia :P00:42
rm_worklcuk: lol00:42
rm_workat least I didn't VOMIT in the mcdonalds00:42
lcukyes, true00:43
rm_worki'm holding on to that :P it's all I've got00:43
*** lxp has quit IRC00:43
lcuk:D00:43
lcukthe collective will of every McDonalds employee is also pleased00:43
lcukrm_work, Nokia are supporting part of it sure00:43
lcukbut they say:00:44
rm_worki just think thats funny00:44
rm_worki was really impressed with them before, for supporting the community the way they did00:45
rm_workbut now with Elop and all the crap thats going on, it's just "wtf"00:45
rm_worklike, are they supporting us, or dropkicking us into the nether?00:45
rm_workI can't tell <_<00:45
*** KMFDM has quit IRC00:45
lcukrm_work, meh00:46
rm_worklcuk: yes, "meh" describes how I feel right now about that00:46
rm_workbut i guess for now i'll say "it's still cool that they're supporting the community like that"00:47
lcuknot sure where the balance is coming from00:47
lcukbut the first revisions of that and the paperwork I have talks about being platform agnostic00:47
lcukbut does not specify a toolkit00:47
lcukso I can stand up and talk about liqbase bits00:48
lcukin context of liqbase00:48

DocScrutinizerof course we did it00:55
DocScrutinizerlike 9 months ago00:55

*** I-C-Wiener has quit IRC00:57
user0-DocScrutinizer : i could have installed meego on an sd card and got the code00:58
*** trumee has quit IRC00:58
ShadowJKah, bought device with lock code? :-)00:59
user0-but this shouldn't happen so let them deal with the problem00:59
DocScrutinizersure you could, but that doesn't explain why it is acting up like it did00:59
DocScrutinizerexactly00:59
*** trumee has joined #maemo00:59
user0-ShadowJK : it started asking for one after flashing it00:59
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: yep, plus it wasn't resettable as it's supposed to be, according to MohammadAG00:59
*** renato has quit IRC01:00
ShadowJKmmm supposed to be trivial to crack, but it takes effort i guess01:01
user0-DocScrutinizer : i was expressing how useless the rescue initrd was moments ago at #meego  :P01:01
DocScrutinizernot trivial when system refuses to boot01:01
DocScrutinizerhehe01:01
DocScrutinizerI guess reply was .....01:01
*** Guest86796 has quit IRC01:02
*** Guest86796 has joined #maemo01:02
user0-that i was right and that the wiki page is missing a lot :P01:02
*** GNUton-BNC has quit IRC01:02
*** Guest86796 is now known as xnt1401:02
user0-they were asking each other what was the point of usb networking01:02
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: if you got the opportunity eventually, you'd not want to miss to test enabling lockcode prior to rootfs reflash, to see if it gets reset01:02
DocScrutinizerlol @ user0-01:03
ShadowJKUh, i'm pretty sure it doesn't get reset?01:03
user0-the info online regarding that was mixed01:03
*** baraujo has quit IRC01:04
user0-i ended up translating sites from Arabic and Chinese to know the answer yesterday01:05
ShadowJKisn't lock code stored with CAL and stuff..01:05
user0-didn't even get it, worked for some people, didn't for others01:06
*** mr_jrt has joined #maemo01:06
*** SmilyOrg has joined #maemo01:07
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: MohammadAG claims the fact it shall get queried is in gconf, and gconf gets reset on flashing rootfs01:07
DocScrutinizera big hoax, but comes handy when overriding a forgotten lockcode01:08
*** markinfo has quit IRC01:08
ShadowJKwas it MohammadAG or someone else who stared at disassembly of NOLO and stuff..01:08
MohammadAGgconf should be stored on ~ imo01:08
DocScrutinizeralas I never heard anybody actually *testing* it, that's why I asked if you... eventually... (I'm rarely ever flashing rootfs)01:09
MohammadAGwhat does NOLO have to do with this?01:09
MohammadAGand no, it was probably jacekowski01:09
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: jacekowski01:09
ShadowJKiirc he found the lock code in CAL, and figured out the default code is stored in plain text, and when setting code it gets stored as hash(code+salt), where salt is constant01:10
*** hannesw_ has joined #maemo01:10
ShadowJKbut my memory isn't that reliable :P01:10
*** Smily has quit IRC01:10
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: (should be stored in ~) maybe it is, partially, and that's why you need to nuke both, rootfs AND eMMC01:10
DocScrutinizerwould make a lot of sense01:10
MohammadAGno need to nuke eMMC to clear gconf actually :p01:11
MohammadAGjust rootfs01:11
MohammadAGand setting a gconf value as root or user does the same01:11
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: (figured default) that's been me :-)01:11
ShadowJKah ok01:11
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: please TRST it01:11
DocScrutinizer:-D01:12
*** mpoirier has quit IRC01:12
MohammadAGtest what?01:12
MohammadAGit's 12345 on the other N900 here01:12
DocScrutinizerwe all know how to *simulate* it with gconftool01:12
MohammadAGplain text01:12
MohammadAGI don't want to change that :P01:12
DocScrutinizeryes, that means you never changed it01:12
MohammadAGyeah, not my personal N900 so no reason to do so01:12
user0-DocScrutinizer : you remember the flashers output that was something like ( x kb of  y kb ) yesterday ?01:13
*** hannesw has quit IRC01:13
user0-you made a geekish joke back then with something regarding the speed of light..01:13
DocScrutinizer(simulate) and I believe in your tests with gconftool regarding the lockcode disabling. Nevertheless there *might* be more to it01:13
user0-y was 0 on windows01:13
DocScrutinizeruser0-: yes01:13
user0-on linux x=y01:14
DocScrutinizertransmitting arbitrary amount of data in 0 seconds is speed-of-light for flashing01:14
MohammadAGhow it should be01:14
ShadowJKI wonder if the gconf key is written to on boot01:14
MohammadAGShadowJK, DocScrutinizer qwerty12 lost his key and had to recover, he found out flashing recovers access to the device01:15
DocScrutinizerwell, if *anybody* dares to enable lockcode prior to next flash...01:15
DocScrutinizerwe'd know for sure01:15
user0-:)01:15
user0-i'll be flashing it if it comes back with an older firmware tomorrow01:15
DocScrutinizerno problems as long as you know your own lockcode01:16
user0-so i'll do whatever testing you have in mind01:16
user0-thats for sure :)01:16
MohammadAGfirst post here http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=434946&postcount=101:16
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: ok, I'll look into it, but it might have changed, no?01:17
DocScrutinizerI can tell it's an old post, just from the URL ;-P01:17
*** trx has quit IRC01:17
MohammadAGnah01:18
user0-12-19-200901:18
user0-perhaps i'll get SHR running on an sd card before flashing tomorrow01:19
*** buntfalke has quit IRC01:19
*** licensed has quit IRC01:22
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: also he doesn't state WHAT he had to flash, maybe >>let me remind you that I had to reflash the phone and blasted all of the files I had on here along with all my settings and applications<< implies he flashed eMMC too?01:23

MohammadAGDocScrutinizer, extra research shows http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=538825&postcount=201:24
DocScrutinizer:nod:01:25
DocScrutinizerstill I'm worried nobody succeded in actually doing it recently01:25
user0-MohammadAG : i read his/her posts yesterday01:26
DocScrutinizerI'd feel a WHOLE LOT better when talking users like user0- thru all of it, when I got some recent confirmation of the process working with PR1.301:26
MohammadAGhis, saying her in the maemo community wouldn't be sexism imo :p01:27
MohammadAGerr, him*01:27
DocScrutinizerit's just so simple to change the cruft that checks lockcode on boot01:27
*** trumee has joined #maemo01:27
DocScrutinizerso nobody knows if Nokia fixed that vulnerability in PR1.3 or not01:27
*** liar has quit IRC01:28
DocScrutinizerif I were to implement that, I'd place a cookie to ~user/ as well, and only ignore lockcode if both rootfs and ~user got nuked01:29
DocScrutinizerso all your data is safe, and you recover by lockcode loss via FULL reflash (root&eMMC)01:30
DocScrutinizerclean solution - and so easy01:30
user0-DocScrutinizer : have you been getting many users with the problem?01:31
DocScrutinizerdunno01:31

DocScrutinizerhehe01:45
MohammadAGstop mce; sleep 1; start mce prompts for the code01:45
DocScrutinizerlol01:45
DocScrutinizergonna strace the sucker ;-)01:45
*** Spydemon has quit IRC01:45
DocScrutinizersee where it looks for secret bits about asking lockcode or not01:45
MohammadAGgconf :p01:46
*** rm_work has quit IRC01:46
MohammadAGjust string the library with the UI in control panel01:46
DocScrutinizerwhy not ~user/.gnome/letslockit as well?01:46
MohammadAGit's libcpdevlock I think01:46
MohammadAGit's in /usr/lib/hildon-control-panel01:46
MohammadAGcause Nokia didn't think an average crook can flash rootfs01:47
DocScrutinizerI'll jus see if it touches eMMC when *enabling* lockcode01:47
*** zap has quit IRC01:47
MohammadAGnope, sure it doesn't :p01:48
DocScrutinizeras it would need to flip both toggles if there's one in rootfs *and* one somewhere hiding on eMMC01:48
*** chenca has quit IRC01:48
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: how do you know?01:48
DocScrutinizergiven I had source of mce, I'd "fix" this vulnerability in ~5min01:50
DocScrutinizerrefer what they did with cherry ;-)01:51
MohammadAGI dug around a lot when looking for something for chem|st01:52
MohammadAGnot sure what it was01:52
DocScrutinizer-- if get-gconf(GCONFKEY_USE_LOCK)01:55
*** Sc0rpius has joined #maemo01:55
DocScrutinizer++ if get-gconf(GCONFKEY_USE_LOCK) or fstat(PATH_TO_LOCKCOOKIE_IN_HOME, void)01:55

DocScrutinizerunless somebody compares md5 for mce in PR1.0 with what we got today and oesn't find a diff, we don't know for sure01:57
DocScrutinizeror somebody *demonstrates* flashing rootfs is sufficient for PR1.301:58
DocScrutinizerarguably the option to boot meego or rescue-initrd and access eMMC data this way somewhat completely defeats the purpose of a lockcode01:59
DocScrutinizerbut you never know if they didn't think they at least should fix the unprotected MyDocs from simple rootfs flashing which is what every noob would try first to unlock the device02:01

rm_youyou make it sound like any random person on the street might pick up my cell phone and immediately think "AH, I know, I'll just flash the rootfs and that way i'll have easy access to his data" >_>02:31
rm_you90% of people on the street will be like "durrr, cellphone" and the rest will be like "cool, smartphone... wait, this isn't android. LAME."02:31
DocScrutinizeras long as the average service shop finds the MyDocs data gets exposed despite lock code, on a regular flashing of "firmware", this might just be sth Nokia feels the should change02:32
rm_youyour point is still valid though if you're legitimately concerned with security02:32

DocScrutinizeriluminator101: there's a known issue with some video encoded in some particular format makes the GFX hw accel hang. AFAIK you have to reboot after that to recover. Shouldn't say "file not supported" for just one file then, but doesn't playback any video05:12
*** uen has quit IRC05:12
*** pcfe has quit IRC05:12
*** kimitake_idle has joined #maemo05:12
DocScrutinizerthe effect is reproducable with particular "offending" video files05:12

*** pcfe has quit IRC05:12
*** pcfe has joined #maemo05:12
*** pcacjr has joined #maemo05:13
DocScrutinizerprobably a bug in the hw accel decoder code05:13
DocScrutinizeractually OC and messing with core voltages can also cause a lockup, and in case of OC this can be permanent flaw that causes frequent lockups even when clock is reverted to normal05:15
*** Malin_ has quit IRC05:16

GonzoTheGreatI can reproduce this undervolting. The "gpu" really doesn't like it.05:30
*** maybeHere has joined #maemo05:31
DocScrutinizersure, otherwise Nokia had chosen lower voltage to make for longer battery endurance05:31
GonzoTheGreatSome people are just lucky. But then again they probably have dodgy usb ports05:32
DocScrutinizerand if OC was without risk and damage, Nokia for sure would not run the device underclocked to give nerds sth they can "add 2 eggs and a glass of milk to bake the cake"05:32
iluminator101DocScrutinizer, exactly have to reboot05:34
DocScrutinizerwarranty is max 2 years afaik. So expect device to break in less than that when you overclock. Of course that's worst case scenario05:34
*** maybeArgh has quit IRC05:34
GonzoTheGreatThen mine runs quite ok slightly overclocked and undervolted. Just enough to get better battery and play some videos it wouldn't otherwise.05:34
iluminator101DocScrutinizer, how can i fix this05:34
DocScrutinizerdon't play back the killing file05:34
GonzoTheGreatiluminator101: so are you undervolting or not?05:35
iluminator101GonzoTheGreat, no stock didnt make any changes05:35
GonzoTheGreatdid you pause the video?05:36
DocScrutinizerfind which file kills the gfx engine. delete the file05:36
DocScrutinizerget same movie in another encoding or rate or whatever05:36
iluminator101GonzoTheGreat, yea sometimes05:36
GonzoTheGreatSeem to remember it did that for me. It couldn't resume from those points.05:37
*** jd has quit IRC05:37
GonzoTheGreatI can't remember where those "bookmarks" are stored.05:37
GonzoTheGreatTry moving it somewhere and rename it and moving it back. It think it is handled by tracker.05:38
* GonzoTheGreat waits for DocScrutinizer to get warmed up05:38
DocScrutinizererr wut?05:39
GonzoTheGreatI mentioned the "t" word05:39
DocScrutinizerit's some particular encoding sequence occasionally occuring in random arbitrary video files. If you run into such a file that has the killer sequence, you can do really little about it05:40
DocScrutinizermeh05:40
DocScrutinizerthe t word gets eaten for breakfast05:40
SpeedEvilYou can add another media player - mplayer for example - and watch it using that.05:40
DocScrutinizerand actually is unrelated here05:41

GonzoTheGreatDocScrutinizer: could it be that seeking to a "bookmarked point" in certain files could trigger this but not playing "across" this point?05:46
DocScrutinizermight, but unlikely05:47
*** kthomas_vh has joined #maemo05:47
DocScrutinizerwell, maybe there are special "hints" for searching in such video files, that aren't used for normal playback05:47
DocScrutinizerso if such a hint is flawed... X-[05:48
DocScrutinizerhints like a linked list of forward pointers to next second, minute, etc05:48
*** psycho_oreos has joined #maemo05:49
*** kthomas_vh has quit IRC05:50
DocScrutinizeryou'd not need that for normal playback, but for searching to a particular point it's useful, and can break things if such pointer is defect05:50
*** swc|666 has joined #maemo05:51
DocScrutinizerusually the distance between 2 i-frames (full picture) is limited, i.e. there must not be more than x differential frames between 2 i-frames. Sometimes encoders violate that rule. Results may vary depending on decoder05:54

internetishardIs there a way to make the n900 only connect to one wifi network?06:12
internetishardautomatically that is?06:12
internetishardso it doesn't connect randomly to every network it sees, except for my home network06:13
DocScrutinizererr yes06:14
wblazeisn't that the default behavior?06:14
DocScrutinizerlook on tmo for details06:14
DocScrutinizerI thought as well06:14
wblazeI usually switch off wifi when I am out anyway... but still06:15
DocScrutinizerconnect auto only to known networks06:15
* DocScrutinizer never06:15
wblazemeh, battery life is bad enough without scanning wifi while driving06:16
DocScrutinizerN900 does wlan@home -> GPRS when I leave home, and it goes gprs -> wlan@MyPub when I arrive there06:16
internetishardoh, so you make only one network "known"?06:17
internetishardhow is this done?06:17
wblazesettings->internet connections->connections06:18
DocScrutinizersettings -> internet connections: "automatic coonect"->all , "[x] switch to wlan when available"06:19
*** Vanadis__ has joined #maemo06:19
wblazedelete any wifi profiles not your home wifi06:19
DocScrutinizerunder connections -> connections you get the known ones and can delete those you don't like06:20
DocScrutinizerdepending on your needs for battery life and connectivity you may want to use an interval for WLAN search of 5, 10, 30, or 60 min06:21
DocScrutinizerwblaze: how long are you driving?06:22
*** Vanadis has quit IRC06:22
DocScrutinizer;-)06:22
*** mirsal has quit IRC06:23
DocScrutinizerI'm using a scan interval of 10min and think that's just fine06:23

DocScrutinizerI'm not at all excited about it12:47

DibblahCool. Load-tested my new battery.12:50
Dibblah1604mAh last measured discharge.12:51
Dibblah(After 3 cycles, last two were the same.12:51
ruskiehttp://regmedia.co.uk/2011/06/13/motorola_atrix_5.jpg <-- at a quick glance it looks almost like a maemo device12:51
ShadowJKWhat battery is that?12:51

Dibblah012:53
Dibblahby "the same" I mean 159212:54
ShadowJKah12:54
DibblahAbsolutely massive presentation case, though. Almost as big as a VHS box.12:54
DibblahAnd they sent 3 of them.12:54
Dibblah... Admittedly, they sent 3 because I ordered 3.12:55
ShadowJKI'd get one of those but I'm worried about the extra thickness :)12:55
DibblahNot really an issue.12:55
DibblahIt fits just fine.12:55
ShadowJKWorried extra pressure is a contributing factor to the "crossed out sim" plague :)12:56
DibblahThe humorous part to me is it's marked as a 1420mAh cell.12:56
ShadowJKWell, bq27200 measures down to 3248mV and assumes there's 6% left, which isn't necessarily the case..12:57
DocScrutinizershouldn't there be no pressure to SIM holder at all, from battery12:57
DocScrutinizer?12:57
ShadowJKDocScrutinizer, the sim holder is probably not relevant12:58
DocScrutinizeraah12:58
DibblahIt is slightly heavier, which I find interesting.12:58
ShadowJKin dmesg it looked like cellmo was crashing or the data lines between cellmo and omap glitching12:59
DibblahNormal cell - 27.13g. New cell - 30.64g.12:59
Khertan_ShadowJK: qtmobility run all sensor if dev do nawak ... else only things asked by the dev13:00
ShadowJKSo typical Nokia soldering + periodic warping/bending + internal temp 60C == cellmo coming loose almost like musb port? :)13:00
* ShadowJK is just guessing13:00

Khertan_and drain battery in less than 30min13:03
ShadowJKbtw, it was awesome. The music paused for the naigation instructions, and then resumed. through car speakers :)13:03
robbiethe1stLeaving mbarcode open, at 1ghz can also make it hot ;)13:03

Khertan_ShadowJK: it is !13:04

DocScrutinizerLOL13:04
DocScrutinizerNO way13:05
Khertan_put large source code on the sd card13:05
Khertan_and use pylint to check it13:05
ShadowJKkhertan, are you aware that battery icon shows full until 50% or so :)13:05
DocScrutinizerbattery has 4.9Wh, which means your device would melt away at ~10W13:05
ShadowJKyour battery probably wasn't full to start with.. or then you have one of those cheap ebay batteries that say 1930mAh but actually have 600mAh13:06
DibblahJust measured. Old cell - 5.56mm x 60.00mm x 37.8mm    New cell - 5.95mm x 60.00mm x 37.8mm13:06
DocScrutinizerI think there's no way to go <90min, unless you find a way to short the battery or make some chips desolder themselves13:06
DibblahSo the only difference is .5mm in thickness.13:07
DibblahThat's including all labels, etc.13:07

ruskienobody said... sure I'll take the N8 as a replacement for the N90014:57
nid0yeah, exactly as the warranty terms agreed-to by sending the device to them undoubtedly say they will14:57
ruskiewell they can swap it out for an equal or better device14:58
ruskieusually14:58
nid0if a device is unfixable, theyll replace it with a new one if available, or a pre-approved alternative if not14:58
ruskiewell if it's not the same device I want a call and be consulted14:58
psycho_oreosdepending on the owner's connections (via people), they can either get it fixed by someone else or they'll have to tackle it themselves. Either way, I would never want a n8 as a `swap device', even if it was given to me for free I wouldn't even want it14:58

psycho_oreosn8 is nowhere near the equivalent of n900: no hardware keyboard, possible locked boot loader, doesn't have 32GB onboard and runs some other OS that one wouldn't generally be happy with if they want linux15:00
ruskiefrankly I'd ask them to refund me for the cost of it being broken and add a bit extra15:00

ruskiedid he fire off an email to them?15:48
Khertan_even if he call them before the end15:48
ruskiesomething that is documented15:48
Khertan_and got a return number15:48
FIQ|n900i found this wikipage - http://wiki.maemo.org/USB_networking#Behind_the_scenes - but it's about Maemo 415:48
Khertan_in fact the problem is more complex15:48
Khertan_they return it one time saying it s repaired15:48
Khertan_but didn't15:48
SpeedEvilArgh.15:49
Khertan_and when he wan't to return it again, they say that warranty is over15:49
Khertan_usual15:49
* SpeedEvil reads backscroll, and realises he should have sent his device off for repair before now.15:49
ruskieKhertan_, sucks I guess for such things...15:49
psycho_oreosSpeedEvil, you have broken USB port?15:50
SpeedEvilpsycho_oreos: I have somewhat dodgy modem that sometimes forgets it has a SIM installed15:50
ruskieKhertan_, well I tend to always do any warranty stuff in person since they are less likely to try and get around things...15:51
Khertan_"Nokia announced on March 11, 2011 that it had paid Elop a $6 million signing bonus, “compensation for lost income from his prior employer," on top of his $1.4 million annual salary" <<< oh ... i found the R&D budget for MeeGo Handset at Nokia15:51
psycho_oreosSpeedEvil, you're not telling me this is N900? :( My N95-1 has a very similar issue15:51
SpeedEvilpsycho_oreos: yes15:51
FIQ|n900oh, mine does that as well15:52
psycho_oreosSpeedEvil, happen to know which CPU rev is that?15:52
FIQ|n900though it was just my sim card that had small problems15:52
ruskiethough had to threaten the local irobot repair&distribution director that I'll do everything in my power to get rid of their license if they don't fix an error that irobot accepts as an issue... I probably couldn't do it but I would cause so much bad publicity that they wouldn't be able to shift ...15:52
ruskie... much units15:52
ruskieKhertan_, fun15:52
FIQ|n900but fiddling with it usually helps, or does i mis-understand the problem?15:52

Khertan_RST38h: hum ... be carreful the server you are using for chatting is made by geeks15:54
psycho_oreosFIQ|n900, if I'm not mistaken, it sounds like there's a fault with SIM area :( My N95-1 had that problem, often more than not it randomly says "Insert SIM car" and you can't do anything else apart from pulling battery out, reinserting SIM, replace battery and turn it back on again.15:54
ruskieor as someone commented... geeks are meant to get the general public interested in various gadgets so they sell15:54
SpeedEvilpsycho_oreos: exact same fault.15:55
RST38hKhertan: I am bringing them enlightenment!15:55
Khertan_psycho_oreos: most time i got this problem with device it s a defect sim card.15:55
SpeedEvilpsycho_oreos: I need to reboot.15:55
psycho_oreosSpeedEvil, hmm.. I think that's also the same rev as ones that reported uUSB socket falling out15:55
psycho_oreosKhertan_, but then what if it was working fine before without any hitches before all of the sudden you get prompts like that?15:56
psycho_oreosSpeedEvil, yeah that'd also work but not always for me in the case of N95-1.. I haven't had the same issue with my N900s15:56
* Khertan_ have problably one of the first revision of n900 ... i got some error too like that. I think my n900 was the problem, and since i change the sim card i didn't get them anymore15:56
SpeedEvilKhertan: I've changed SIMs, and it still happens15:57
Khertan_:(15:57
psycho_oreosI can't replicate the problem as the SIM card that I got was a prepaid and it was expired not long ago15:58

(other than http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/beta/telepathy-glib/telepathy-glib-account-manager.html) - I'm using QtCreator and that doesn't provide the headers for telepathy-qt4, meaning I'm stuck with telepathy-glib, and the version provided doesn't even so much as list the Dbus properties available. Given that is my first attempt at any direct Dbus interaction via coding...thi17:34
