DocScrutinizer05 | though, you probably should offer it over at #harmattan first (PC as far as PC goes here) | 00:01 |
---|---|---|
DocScrutinizer05 | if you want it to go to "the right guy" offer at #harmattan, if you want to get as much as it's worth, offer at ebay | 00:03 |
jacekowski | are they even allowed to sell n950 | 00:04 |
jacekowski | isn't that still nokia property on lease | 00:04 |
jon_y | last I heard ebay has it for $2500 | 00:04 |
piggz | im hoping nokia never asks for mine back.....its like owning a pieve of history! | 00:04 |
piggz | to sell it would be like selling my soul! ;) | 00:05 |
jon_y | yeah, I wouldn't want to sell it too if I had it | 00:05 |
RST38h | so, piggz, how much is your soul? | 00:05 |
jon_y | about $2500? | 00:05 |
piggz | RST38h: 3000 :P | 00:05 |
jon_y | can I trade my sould for yours? :) | 00:06 |
piggz | couldnt do it ... 2500-3000 is really just a short term gain anyway :) | 00:08 |

DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: you're following this witchcraft? | 00:34 |

DocScrutinizer05 | n900 MyDocs gets exposed as VFAT formatted mass storage, like a usual USB memory stick. However I dunno if PC needs some special formatting other than a partition with VFAT to boot from a USB memstick | 04:51 |
*** r00t^home has quit IRC | 04:51 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | might need superflopy rather than a partition | 04:52 |
RiD | what is the stock n900 mydocs reading speed, through usb? | 04:52 |
RiD | i mean writing* sorry | 04:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | some 14MB/s iirc | 04:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | oops writing, dunno for sure | 04:53 |
RiD | well, shouldn't change much i guess | 04:53 |
RiD | i heard wifi was faster (at writing), is that true? I find it hard to believe lol | 04:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | well, the linux on N900 does quite some buffering and caching, so yes, it might be almost same speed like reading | 04:54 |
RiD | 54Mb/s are like 6MB/s | 04:55 |
RiD | 6,75 actually | 04:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | err, maybe you mean N900 writing TO a USB memestick attached to h-e-n hostmode | 04:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | this might in fact be slow | 04:56 |
RiD | oh, maybe you're right. | 04:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I heard of a terrible 4MB/s transfer speed in h-e-n | 04:57 |
RiD | Fragmented memory, my brain needs to defrag | 04:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if that's true then actually accessing any storage via wifi might be faster than direct access to a storage media via h-e-n USB hostmode | 04:59 |

merlin1991 | btw about battery calibration | 05:29 |
merlin1991 | our "external contractor" at the office wanted to put the new ups on the servers into the system without even running a calibration run once | 05:30 |

DocScrutinizer05 | merlin1991: lol | 05:31 |

merlin1991 | I guess we got kinda lucky that I happened to be at the office for the first time in a few weeks at exactly the right time :D | 05:32 |
nagato | DocScrutinizer05: what about let computer read live CD system like ubuntu into computer memory, that will reduce the time of exchanging with N900 USB. | 05:33 |
merlin1991 | nagato: we'll you'll need a proper live cd system, not everything runs out of the box from usb | 05:33 |
merlin1991 | there is some slight difference between boot from usb and boot from cd (though it beats me what exactly it is) | 05:34 |
nagato | merlin1991: I heard that Ubuntu can read things into memory, but not sure. | 05:34 |
*** rcg has quit IRC | 05:34 | |
merlin1991 | yeah ubuntu cds work like that afaik | 05:34 |
nagato | merlin1991: yes, I want to boot from N900, So I guess is boot from USB | 05:35 |
* merlin1991 darkly remembers somehting about debian not working all that will with this approach | 05:35 | |
merlin1991 | shit | 05:35 |
merlin1991 | s/somehitng/somehting/ s/will/well/ .... | 05:35 |
merlin1991 | :D | 05:35 |
nagato | Maybe I should create a new thread on Maemo Talk, let people contribute ideas ? | 05:38 |
merlin1991 | i'd try with a ubuntu live disk first | 05:39 |
merlin1991 | though in order to boot from that you'll have to have a proper boot sector on your "usb device" which might yield all sorts of difficulties for the n900 itself | 05:40 |
*** hardaker has joined #maemo | 05:40 | |
merlin1991 | also that might get stomped on by the g_mass_storage (or what's it called) kernel driver, but again I have no idea about the actual internals of that | 05:41 |
nagato | I want to take only one N900, instead of N900 and a USB, that's why I come up with this idea. | 05:41 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I'd guess one of those helper programs to format a usb stick to hold a bootable system will 'just work' from your PC when N900 plugged in | 05:41 |
nagato | DocScrutinizer05: seems possible | 05:42 |
* merlin1991 wonders what $average bios actually does when "booting from usb" | 05:42 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | and yes, I think there are even usb sticks that don't work for that purpose | 05:42 |
merlin1991 | on hdd / cd / dvd I have a good idea of what happens, but I have nfc about usb stuff | 05:42 |
merlin1991 | DocScrutinizer05: yes, those with bad sectors (had 2 linux instalations that died this way shortly after going into use) | 05:43 |
nagato | cool, I will collect more info about this. | 05:43 |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://www.experto.de/b2b/computer/hardware/machen-sie-ihren-usb-stick-bootfaehig.html | 05:45 |
merlin1991 | nagato: btw the n900 can also export the microsd card over usb as mass storage device (actually does so automatically if it's formated with an vfat partition) | 05:45 |
nagato | merlin1991: I see | 05:45 |
merlin1991 | and also yields all kind of funky errors on windows in case the microsd does not have vfat but something else :D | 05:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 05:46 |
merlin1991 | DocScrutinizer05: that is a guide to use $random binary from the interwebtz to create a bootable usb device but still says nothing about the internals of what happenes | 05:46 |
*** rcg has joined #maemo | 05:47 | |
merlin1991 | hm unetbootin uses syslinux in oder to get the usb drives booting | 05:48 |
*** bef0rd has joined #maemo | 05:50 | |
merlin1991 | bah wherever google looks there are silly docs of use $x in order to achieve your goal, I just want the tech internals to see how todo it via the n900 | 05:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/unetbootin/wiki/howitworks | 05:51 |
merlin1991 | For the Live USB creation mode, UNetbootin generates an appropriate syslinux config file in /syslinux.cfg, and makes your USB drive bootable using syslinux. | 05:51 |

DocScrutinizer05 | merlin1991: that's the one for you, no? http://tuxtweaks.com/2009/05/create-a-bootable-usb-drive-ubuntu-freedos/ | 05:58 |
merlin1991 | DocScrutinizer05: this looks good: http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/usb_msc_boot_1.0.pdf | 05:58 |
LaoLang_cool | merlin1991, thank you, I found osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh, after I run it, nothing happened, no any statusbar indicator or notification | 06:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Typ: application/binary WTF?! | 06:01 |
*** Venemo_ has quit IRC | 06:01 | |
merlin1991 | LaoLang_cool: that's expected | 06:01 |
merlin1991 | DocScrutinizer05: probably bad mimetypes on their apache, but it's a valid pdf | 06:01 |
LaoLang_cool | merlin1991, hmm, how to test if it works? I still can use file manager to access my file systems | 06:02 |
merlin1991 | LaoLang_cool: you should be able to access any vfat partitions on your n900 from the pc now (if it's connected via usb) | 06:02 |
merlin1991 | hm seems that pdf is a tic too low level | 06:04 |
merlin1991 | but apparently one needs a parition flagged as bootable and a bootloader on it | 06:04 |
merlin1991 | in which case I'd probably slap grub2 onto it because I know it | 06:04 |
LaoLang_cool | merlin1991, but without running the script, I can access file system on n900 too... | 06:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it seems to me there are special requirements regarding naming and location of such bootloader | 06:05 |
LaoLang_cool | No the difference at all, when I connect n900 with usb, a prompt of mode choice will pop up | 06:06 |
merlin1991 | LaoLang_cool: that always pops up, actually if you press mass storage there it just executes the script again | 06:06 |
LaoLang_cool | merlin1991, oh, but if I can't let n900 act like a usb before connected via usb, then boot from n900 will be impossible, right? | 06:07 |
merlin1991 | LaoLang_cool: theoretically it should act like usb when you plug it in and executed the script beforehand | 06:08 |
merlin1991 | you probably should tap outside the selection screen when it pops up though to avoid reseting anything that was already in the making | 06:09 |
LaoLang_cool | merlin1991, no, after I launch the script, it still not work like a usb if I don't choice the mass storage mode in the pop up menu | 06:09 |
merlin1991 | that's strange | 06:09 |
LaoLang_cool | It will be in charging only mode | 06:10 |

DocScrutinizer05 | who's been asking yesterday how to re-establish proper bat icon function after `start bme`? I dunno, except unplug and replug USB charger | 06:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there's some test program... lemme find it | 06:31 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it *might* be able to simulate a mating round on USB | 06:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | oh sure: ke-recv-test | 06:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | p - enable PC Suite | 06:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | c - enable charging mode | 06:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | m - enable USB mass storage | 06:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | maybe nothing for bat icon but for LaoLang_cool | 06:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ? | 06:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LaoLang_cool: ^^^ | 06:35 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LaoLang_cool: ke-recv-test m | 06:35 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LaoLang_cool: and since that's finally ke-recv there might indeed be a relation to cssu, though I think cssu-stable still has original ke-recv | 06:41 |
DocScrutinizer05 | cssu-t though has a patched version iirc | 06:42 |

LaoLang_cool | DocScrutinizer05, after run the cmd, still the same here :( | 06:45 |
LaoLang_cool | oh, I run it as user, maybe I should try run as root | 06:46 |
LaoLang_cool | still the same.. | 06:46 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LaoLang_cool: iirc from early hostmode R&D days, you need to rmmod a module, to stop requester from popping up. After that you can run osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh after plugging USB | 06:49 |
*** robbiethe1st has joined #maemo | 06:50 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's NOT g_file_storage module which actually already exports mass storage afaik | 06:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I think it's some g_nokia_* module | 06:50 |
robbiethe1st | You mean for usb mass storage? | 06:51 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 06:51 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for the requester | 06:51 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there's one module to watch USB and pop up the requester, another module for mass storage, and a third one for phonet | 06:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and other PC suite mode stuff | 06:52 |
robbiethe1st | Yeah. | 06:52 |
robbiethe1st | g_file_storage actually does the exporting | 06:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | to make requester never come up you first need to rmmod the initial module | 06:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | then you can simulate clicking "mass storage" button in the now missing requester by running osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh | 06:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | logger "$0: removing g_nokia" | 06:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | initctl emit G_NOKIA_REMOVE | 06:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | (from osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh) | 06:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | this should remove the requester | 06:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | (if you're root) | 06:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | /sbin/rmmod g_nokia | 06:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if [ $? != 0 ]; then | 06:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | logger "$0: failed to rmmod g_nokia!" | 06:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | exit 1 | 06:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | fi | 06:58 |
LaoLang_cool | DocScrutinizer05, wow, too advanced to me | 07:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LaoLang_cool: run osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh as root, it should doo all that's needed AIUI | 07:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LaoLang_cool: there's also osso-usb-mass-storage-disable.sh | 07:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LaoLang_cool: I just said "osso-usb-mass-storage-ensable.sh actually does what I had in mind: /sbin/rmmod g_nokia" | 07:08 |

DocScrutinizer05 | while the flashlight-extra was about doing all that in a semi-autzomatic way, via accelerometer or whatever | 18:08 |

DocScrutinizer05 | uhuh http://thecodecentral.com/flashlight-extra-for-maemo-nokia-n900, so I wonder what was so damn fsckdup with this silly useful little thing | 18:19 |
DocScrutinizer05 | >> Marcus October 28, 2010 8:20 am This program drains my battery This was difficult to trace. Apparently the /etc/event.d/flashlight-extra script is started every 2 seconds. Could there possibly be some wrong registration? Btw: Deinstalling solved the thing | 18:21 |
DocScrutinizer05 | >> Mike December 6, 2010 5:26 pm I don't know about pr1.2, but this does not play nice with pr1.3, including with Titan's power kernel. Upon installation, it worked but I noticed everything became real laggy. CPU util went way up. On de-installation the system was somewhat more responsive but CPU is still high: it has apparently done something to make ohmd eat cycles which persists between reboots. I'm trying to fix this and there are | 18:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | seversl TMO threads on the subject. This is a nice app, but you guys really need to fix this major bug! | 18:22 |

jonwil | obvious question is to examine what it does and see why what its doing causes the bad things to happen | 18:24 |

DocScrutinizer05 | narcos: why you need unbuffered? anyway get gnu-sed | 18:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ~messybox | 18:25 |
infobot | messy... err busybox is meant for lean scripting. Regarding all the missing options and immanent limitations (see su) it's not really the interactive shell of choice. A lot of people hate busybox because a lot of system integrators don't understand the difference between busybox and a decent user interactive shell plus unix utils | 18:25 |

DocScrutinizer05 | there are a number of "special" fs: some store very small data chunks to the inode directly, thus not eating _any_ additional disk space | 19:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | others like reiserfs do basically not use blocks at all | 19:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and ubifs does some compression | 19:06 |

ShadowJK_ | He was in here earlier today, wanting to send a tarball over sms | 23:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | do what? | 23:03 |
ShadowJK_ | Use SMS text messages as data transport, to move a .tar.xz from one N900 in america to another N900 in sweden | 23:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | duh | 23:04 |
ShadowJK_ | I told him a N900 without internet connectivity is like a car without engine, you can use donkeys to pull it, but then you look as stupid as borat | 23:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | my old Nokia 6210 had multi-sms as transport for WAP | 23:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | even for generic data | 23:04 |
