MrOppositeHi, on my n900 I got some problems with hildon-home, or something linked to it. Yesterday late at night I was going to bed, so I started to sign out of skype and facebook on both my phone and my computer. Now whenever the phone is turned on it gets spammed with these notification windows (the yellow ones that leads to a chatwindow if I press it).13:03
MrOppositeI tried rebooting the phone, but it keeps doing it.13:03
MrOppositeI thought about waiting for it to stop, but it loops through the same messages again and again.13:03
MrPinguDeleting the particular chat?13:03
MrOppositeI thought about clearing the chathistory that spams the phone, but it keeps spamming notification13:04
*** ZogG_laptop has joined #maemo13:04
MrOppositeIt actually renders the phone pretty useless13:04
MrOppositeAs hildon-home is eating up 100% CPU13:04
*** bsdmaniak has joined #maemo13:05
MrPinguWeird, I guess it can't help you further, sorry.13:05
MrOppositeokay, thanks anyway13:05

MrOppositesorry i was afk13:25

AbissomMrPingu_: for partitioning we generally use Bootmenu (or something else that exposes whole emmc via usb)13:44
MrOppositeDarnit... still giving me notifications13:45
*** valdyn has quit IRC13:45
Abissomi used BackupMenu to repartition mine13:45

MrPingu_Hmm, why is my original nick in use? IRC is acting on me =(13:46

*** Dynamit has quit IRC13:46
MrPingu_Notifications bubbles?13:46
MrOppositethe notification thingies? I don't know what keywords to google13:46
MrOppositehmm, isn't bubbles the little yellow thingies that pop up in the top of the screen?13:47
MrOppositeThe notification thingies I'm talking about look like real windows when you go to the screen-selector13:47
MrOpposite(with the exception of being yellow)13:47
MrPingu_I know what you mean13:47
MrPingu_I would guess just notification windows13:48

DocScrutinizerMrOpposite: a) spam attack b) IM account and messaging prog problem  c) notification infra problem13:52
MrPingu_Are you attached to your messages?13:52
MrOppositeMrPingu_ not really13:53
Macermaybe you are somehow managing to loop your messages :)13:53
MrOppositeMacer yes... thats my problem13:53
* SpeedEvil remembers 1996. When he got to 8% of his ISPs inbound mail stream.13:53
MrOppositeit loops the same messages13:53
Macerwhat are you using?13:53
MrOppositeit loops a conversation over and over...13:53
Maceris this IM or email?13:53
MrOppositeUhm, the built in skype client13:53
*** trbs has joined #maemo13:53
DocScrutinizerMrOpposite: what IS the msg anyway?13:54
Macerdo you have some weird jabber thing set up to get the skype msgs?13:54
SpeedEvil- I had started posting to usenet using email ID per message. This was before spam took off. Then spam took off.13:54
Macerwhere it forwards it somehow13:54
Macerturn off all forwarding on your skype acct :) and see if that fixes it13:54
MrOppositeDocScrutinizer Uhm, its a conversation about what happened on a train?13:54
MrPingu_Hmm I think rtcom-eventlogger is playing up??13:55
DocScrutinizerso normal inbound chat notification that gets duplicated over and over again?13:55
Maceryou are probably double forwarding and causing a flood of msgs13:55
MrOppositeDocScrutinizer yea13:55
MrOppositeMacer I removed the skype account13:55
Macerguess that will do the trick too heh13:55
MrOppositeit still spam me13:55
Macerturn off email notifications on skype as well13:55
Macer:)13:56
MrOppositeI dont have email notification on skype?13:56
Macerno? they don't forward missed txts to email? weird. thought they did13:56
Maceroh wait. these are skype IMs?13:56
MrOppositeyea it's skype IMs13:56
DocScrutinizerfirst of all: stop skype13:57
DocScrutinizerin terminal13:57
MrOppositedidn't have any skyhost running13:57
DocScrutinizersorry I can't help there as I refuse to touch skype13:57
Macerwell.. it's looping somehow. awesome trick. if you find out how you did it let me know heh13:57
MrOppositeso I guess it's off13:57
Maceri would say maybe you added yourself as a contact and it just ran amok?13:58
MrOpposite(my skype account doesn't exist in my phone anymore13:58
NIN101MrPingu_: http://wiki.maemo.org/Repartitioning_the_flash#Using_GParted_-_Resizing_made_simple13:58
MrOppositeMacer it happened when I signed out of skype13:58
MrOppositewhen I was going to bed last night13:58
Macerand it kept sending IMs with the acct disabled?13:58
MrOppositenot when I was adding contacts or anything13:58
Maceror removed?13:58
Maceror kept sending emails?13:58
MrPingu_You could mv -r  /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/  /some/backup/location/13:59
Macerthat's the strangest thing i ever heard of heh13:59
Maceri used skype for quite a while and never ran into that problem.. but i got rid of it on my n900 and only use it for a home number13:59
Macermostly because skype is a battery whore13:59
MrPingu_reboot and see if you still get spammed...14:00
Macerand txting working in a stupid fashion14:00
MrOppositeOh14:00
MrOppositeMrPingu_ i removed it, gonna try reboot now14:00
MrPingu_That command moves the conversations database to some other location14:00
MrPingu_You could also do rm -r but if it doesn't help, you can't restore...14:01
Macerspeaking of the n90014:02
Macerhas anybody tried nemo?14:02
MrOppositenope14:02
MrOppositestill spamming14:02
Macerouch heh14:02
MrOppositeI mean I got one email notification14:02
MrOppositeone missed call notification14:02
MrOppositeand 4000 skype IM (looped) notifications14:02
MrOppositeso it's only the skype conversation that loops14:03
MacerLOL... wtf?14:03
Abissomi wonder if you don't need some 'dbus' thing.. monitor what exactly is happening14:03
MrPingu_dbus-monitor?14:03
Macerthis is with the acct removed from the n900?14:03
MrOppositeyes the acc is removed14:03
Abissomyeah.. i admit i'm not even sure how that will help14:03
Maceryou did go into conversations and delete the actual conversation right?14:04
MrPingu_Do you have some notification plugin installed?14:04
MrOppositenot... that I know of, no14:04
MrPingu_Well then you probably don't have;)14:04
Abissomalso, htop might be handy.. showing you which process is causing this14:05
MrOppositetop or htop?14:06
MrPingu_Thanks NIN101 I found out that bootmenu also has usbmassstorage support =)14:06
Abissomany, although i use htop mostly14:06
MrOppositeguess htop14:06
MrOppositeanyway14:06
MrOppositeWhen I was top-ing before14:07
MrOppositehildon-home used all available CPU14:07
Abissomkill it as user, not root14:07
Abissomhmm, you have cssu? if so, which flavor?14:08
MrOppositeuhm14:08
MrOppositecssu?14:08
DocScrutinizerI'd suspect /usr/bin/hildon-sv-notification-daemon, killall -sigstop hildon-sv-notification-daemon14:08
*** retro|cz has joined #maemo14:09
DocScrutinizeryou also may want to mv /home/user/.osso/rtcom-notification-ui.data /home/user/.osso/rtcom-notification-ui.data__away14:10
MrPingu_~cssu14:11
infobotit has been said that cssu is http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU14:11
DocScrutinizerhonestly I don't exactly see an easy way to recover from that, as those notifiers need interactive ack, no?14:11
DocScrutinizerand what got cssu to do with this?14:12
MrOppositeI moved the rtcom ui-thingi away14:12
MrOppositeaswell as killed the hildon-sv-notification-daemon (several times)14:12
MrOppositeand killed hildon-home14:12
MrOppositeshould I reboot the device again?14:13
DocScrutinizeryou mustn't kill those processes, as they either cause reboot or will be started again immediately14:13
MrOppositeyea14:14
MrOppositewell hildon-home crash itself after some time14:14
DocScrutinizerkillall hildon-home might help after renaming all those *db14:14
MrOppositeand start all over again with the spamming of messages14:14
DocScrutinizerI bet hildonhome crashes when trying to show zillions of notifiers14:14
MrOppositeprobably14:15
*** dangergrrl has joined #maemo14:15
MrOppositeI moved away the .osso-folder14:15
MrOppositedidn't work either14:15
Abissomdang!14:15
DocScrutinizerI never looked into all that, so I got no clear idea which processes are involved in notifier popup. Others here might be more experienced14:16
DocScrutinizerbut what I seem to know is that notifieres are stored in a db14:16

MrOppositesigstop on hildon-home stopped the madness...14:21
MrOppositehmm14:21
MrOppositerenaming important folders MAY not have been such a good idea after all...14:22
DocScrutinizerpossibly stopping certain proceses may trigger watchdog reboot after 30..60s14:22
MrOppositeAnyway, I think i need to reflash the device now14:23
MrOpposite(I went bananaz in my quest to stop the madness, and renamed pretty much every config folder there was... now the device refuses to start)14:24
Abissomi think you don't, but it may be quickest way to recover14:24
DocScrutinizeralso you should make sure you got a "plan B" backdoor, like backupmenu. So if your renaming causes any bootloop, you could revert to prev state via that14:24

MrOppositeNOTE: Always flash the eMMC image first, then the FIASCO image immediately after that. Never boot up the device between flashing the FIASCO image and the eMMC image! When flashing eMMC always also flash FIASCO rootfs - NEVER boot the device between the two flashes.14:50

*** Sc0rpius has joined #maemo14:51

DocScrutinizerbecause flashing eMMC deletes /opt, and during first boot of a proper rootfs it will get autogenerated (aka optified) again14:56
DocScrutinizerMrOpposite: ^^^14:56
MrOppositeah, okay14:56
MrOppositethanks14:56

DocScrutinizerNB this happens *very* rapidly during first boot, so you might think "it hasn't booted yet" but actually you already ruined the virgin rootfs, so after flashing eMMC it won't boot anymore14:58
DocScrutinizeron the bright side you *always* can flash rootfs/COMBINED as last step, and it will always result in a working (=optifying) system14:58

DocScrutinizera gotcha in -m: it does an implicit i2cget and then writes all 8 bit after replacing the masked bits in read value by their values from parameter. The catch is that always all 8 bits are written16:45
DocScrutinizerwhich matters for registers that yield differnt values on read than those you've written to the same register before16:45
DocScrutinizerluckily this doesn't apply for reg116:46

ShadowJKIf you'd do something to compensate for cell impedance you'd get over 4.2V at the battery terminals, which is a no-no in my book (but actually happens on 2mm charge port Nokias)17:37
DocScrutinizerwell, what do *you* do then with this rather random impedance figure?17:38
*** hurbu_ has quit IRC17:39
DocScrutinizerisn't it like you're assuming the impedance is not in cell but somewhere on the way to there, ans also increase input voltage to >4200 to compensate the fraction of it you think is not inside cell?17:40
ShadowJKit's the imaginary resistance between charger chip and battery terminals, I assume charger is either outputting the max configured charge current, OR is outputting exactly 4.2V at its own output terminals17:40
DocScrutinizerI really don't like the whole idea17:41

BCMM_DocScrutinizer: ah, stuff just vanishes under it?17:55
DocScrutinizeryep17:55
BCMM_heh, it's a bit like when you run out of space on your harddisk17:57
DocScrutinizermerlin1991: I guess cssu team has to investigate further, how to recover from this17:57
BCMM_"hmm, that's not working, better look into that sometime". "that's not working either, odd". "why are so many different things suddenly broken?"17:57
DocScrutinizerdirty mount will most likely result from that bug, and the fix instructions at least should mention it and recommend how to recover17:58

DocScrutinizerI think it's been one of the funniest ideas in unix fs design to mount on real directories18:00
BCMM_DocScrutinizer: what would the alternative be? make mountpoints a special FS object?18:00
DocScrutinizerfor example18:00
BCMM_actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea at all now i think about it18:00
BCMM_since unix has never required that every FS object appears to be strictly a file or directory18:01
DocScrutinizerthere are devices and whatnot as well18:02
ShadowJKI once recovered from "shadow /home on ubifs" by making a bootmenu script delete it18:02
DocScrutinizeror you at very least could require mointpoint dirs to be 00018:03
DocScrutinizeror sth like that18:03

dafoxhi all. I'm trying to set up my n900 to sync with google. I found the following guide: http://groups.google.com/a/googleproductforums.com/forum/#!category-topic/gmail/android/Pw_-bcsxKiA . I've spent a couple of hours on this already, and gmail now seems to work. Calendar also might to work, but contacts dont' want to sync so I'm stuck with 'error in communication with exchange server'. Has anyone here managed to get this to work? (and if so, plea18:27

Added just one contact, and it synced (contact is now also on google contacts). However adding all contacts again it fails to sync. Any ideas?18:59

gormuxhum, seems strange20:22
merlin1991BCMM_: did you resolve your ke-recv problems?20:22
DocScrutinizersince then it's not you aborting the kernel flashing, but simply the empty battery causing it20:22
BCMM_merlin1991: yeah, followed the instructions at the forum link DocScrutinizer sent me and MyDocs appears to mount normally now20:23
gormuxah, you mean, no battery and I start a boot that fails due to not enough battery to boot ?20:23

DocScrutinizermaybe IOWait is actually meant as "kernel driver busy"20:45
DocScrutinizerwhich would make a lot of sense with >50% IO for writing sth to a USB HDD20:46

dafoxok, so in case anyone cares: it seems that if you add your contacts back with at most 5 or so at a time you can get them to show up in your google contacts, and syncing works. Note: before starting my google contacts were empty, and everything was on my n900 only. I backup my n900's contacts, synced to empty n900 to empty google contacts, and then everytime imported 5 contacts back into the n900, and then synced to google contacts. repeat for all22:11
