*** disco_stu has joined #maemo | 05:41 | |
alec_ | ok, thanks, thedead1440 | 05:43 |
alec_ | that seems like the ideal solution | 05:44 |
*** disco_stu has quit IRC | 05:47 | |
*** disco_stu has joined #maemo | 05:47 | |
Zaerc | I wonder if it would be possible to set up a native SDK | 05:52 |
Zaerc | however unpractical it might be | 05:54 |
alec_ | any advantages to that setup, zaerc? | 05:55 |
alec_ | i just want to cross-compile transmission-gtk >= v2.6 | 05:55 |
alec_ | er, transmission-cli | 05:55 |
alec_ | because transmission in the repos doesn't support magnet links | 05:55 |
Zaerc | other then that it would be very slow? I don't think so | 05:55 |
alec_ | ah | 05:55 |
Zaerc | it would just be for fun | 05:56 |
alec_ | yeah | 05:56 |
Zaerc | I guess I've been playing with easy-debian to much ;) | 05:56 |
alec_ | btw, how does stuff in /opt end up in the PATH? | 05:56 |
alec_ | because if i `echo $PATH` i just get /usr/bin and /bin | 05:56 |
alec_ | so obviously there's some kind of behind-the-scenes magic | 05:57 |
alec_ | the problem is that it's a bit inconsistent | 05:57 |
Zaerc | stuff like that is usually set in the shell's startup scripts | 05:57 |
alec_ | for instance, coreutils-gnu installs into a gnu subdirectory that's not part of the PATH | 05:57 |
alec_ | ok | 05:57 |
alec_ | what is the startup script for ash/xterminal? | 05:58 |
alec_ | .ashrc? | 05:58 |
Zaerc | like /etc/profile, ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc | 05:58 |
Zaerc | yeah that could be one of them too | 05:58 |
Zaerc | for the time being, you can always do: export PATH=$PATH:/opt/whatever | 06:00 |
*** dhbiker has joined #maemo | 06:00 | |

*** dockane has joined #maemo | 06:00 | |

*** leochencipher has joined #maemo | 06:06 | |
alec_ | i also chmod -x'ed /usr/bin/find | 06:07 |
alec_ | that could have been the thing that did it | 06:08 |
eccerr0r | why would you do that? | 06:08 |
alec_ | but the problem didn't start until i exported the PATH | 06:08 |
eccerr0r | chmod -x find would kill your system | 06:08 |
alec_ | because i had installed gnu find and wanted to run it with the -exec option | 06:08 |
alec_ | why does it? | 06:08 |
eccerr0r | yeah... that's exactly what happend | 06:09 |
alec_ | ok | 06:09 |
eccerr0r | you killed your system by chmod -x find... | 06:09 |
eccerr0r | if you rm find, or mv find find.old --- these are ok | 06:09 |
eccerr0r | but chmod -x find = bad things happen | 06:09 |
alec_ | weird | 06:09 |
alec_ | any clue why? | 06:09 |
Zaerc | startup scripts go haywire? | 06:09 |
eccerr0r | because it's a symlink to busybox which is very important | 06:10 |
alec_ | well, everything just stopped being executable at that point | 06:10 |
Zaerc | ah right... and ouch | 06:10 |
alec_ | everything | 06:10 |
alec_ | hard or soft link, eccerr0r? | 06:10 |
eccerr0r | doesnt matter | 06:11 |
Zaerc | alec_: next time try adding the path to your new "find" in front | 06:11 |
Zaerc | then do "hash -r" (iirc | 06:11 |
eccerr0r | PATH=newpath:$PATH :D | 06:11 |
Zaerc | you can check which one is being used with "type find" | 06:13 |
eccerr0r | wow... questions for the powers that be, if you did something silly like delete busybox...is this recoverable on the n900? | 06:13 |
eccerr0r | like for a regular PC you could still boot with another disk to recover...will bootmenu help | 06:13 |
eccerr0r | ? | 06:14 |
Zaerc | heh, I don't have that much experience yet, and I hope I never will ;) | 06:14 |
Zaerc | if the bootloader still works, you might be able to boot off SD-card | 06:15 |
* eccerr0r only had his n900 for no more than 2 months... no exp with it yet either | 06:15 | |
Zaerc | I think | 06:15 |
eccerr0r | ahh that would be nice if you could root=the sd card | 06:15 |
eccerr0r | kernel should be fine even if you deleted busybox or libc... | 06:16 |
robbiethe1st | You can always reflah (parts of) your system | 06:16 |
Zaerc | you may need to install one of the advance bootloaders for that | 06:16 |
Zaerc | advanced | 06:16 |
robbiethe1st | the N900 is nearly unbrickable, because it's got this other bit of firmware to allow for flashing | 06:16 |
*** guampa has quit IRC | 06:16 | |
robbiethe1st | even if your OS partitions totally trashed | 06:16 |
*** hardaker has quit IRC | 06:17 | |
Zaerc | thanks robbiethe1st | 06:17 |
eccerr0r | would be nice to unbrick plus not damage any data on the phone :D | 06:17 |
*** b0unc3 has quit IRC | 06:17 | |
*** radic has quit IRC | 06:18 | |
robbiethe1st | For that, you need Backupmenu to be installed before you brick it | 06:18 |
*** radic_ has joined #maemo | 06:18 | |
eccerr0r | aha. | 06:18 |
eccerr0r | if you could use that to change the root disk... I better install it :D | 06:18 |
Zaerc | and there's also sth like RescueOS I think? | 06:19 |
robbiethe1st | Yup; install that & power kernel and you've got shell access | 06:19 |
robbiethe1st | on-device, in a pre-boot environment | 06:19 |
Zaerc | very nice | 06:20 |
eccerr0r | as long as you can use another root disk | 06:20 |
alec_ | sweet | 06:20 |
eccerr0r | because if you whack your libc or busybox, no shell either... | 06:20 |
robbiethe1st | also note how the partitions are: You've got a 256MB rootfs which is on the CPU-chip-module, 2GB /home/ partition, and 28GB fat32 data storage | 06:20 |
robbiethe1st | all of your user data is on the latter two partitions | 06:20 |
robbiethe1st | all of the libc/executables are on the first | 06:21 |
eccerr0r | ideally if one could select root=/dev/mmc1p0 or something like that | 06:21 |
robbiethe1st | That's possible with the bootmenu package, but I don't know exactly how it'd all work | 06:21 |
alec_ | zaerc, what are the advanced bootloaders? what can they do? | 06:21 |
robbiethe1st | so you can *just* flash/reload over the 256mb partition, all your user data is fine(just need to reinstall app packages) and everything's fine. | 06:22 |
robbiethe1st | BRB, guys, dinner. | 06:22 |
eccerr0r | basically you install shell+libc on the microsd card, then you can mount your internal partitions and fix them | 06:22 |
Zaerc | robbiethe1st: enjoy! | 06:22 |
Zaerc | alec_: tbh it was quite a while when I messed with that | 06:22 |
Zaerc | but the one on mine gives a menu if you boot with the keyboard open | 06:23 |
Zaerc | I think it's called u-boot but I'm not sure | 06:23 |
Zaerc | I just had the device and was trying just about everything I could find | 06:24 |
Zaerc | maybe it came with kernel-power, or the other way around | 06:24 |
Zaerc | and it was all new so I didn't want to mess with that too much... I think we all know how that usually ends ;) | 06:26 |

alec_ | can i boot anything interesting with u-boot? | 06:29 |

Zaerc | well it should be possible to put a whole different system on an SD-card I think | 06:30 |
eccerr0r | put android on the sd-card? :D | 06:30 |
* alec_ idly wonders if it's possible to craft a 'live distribution' to run on the n900 that can be loaded from the bootloader | 06:30 | |

alec_ | seems to happen whenever i install stuff | 06:41 |
Zaerc | that is annoying | 06:42 |
Zaerc | I've just put my public ssh key under the root's account | 06:43 |

alec_ | yes | 06:44 |

alec_ | i prefer sudo; i do less damage | 06:44 |
Zaerc | I'm used to it, great learning experience ;) | 06:44 |
alec_ | ahh... backing up OptFS with tar in backupmenu is indeed slow | 06:45 |
eccerr0r | ah thanks for warning about /etc/sudoers... i think adding a file in /etc/sudoers.d maybe the solution to the overwriting... | 06:45 |
* alec_ goes to the store for some tobacco | 06:45 | |

eccerr0r | that's the only two things I dislike about the phone. | 07:01 |
eccerr0r | other than hildon being closed source | 07:01 |
*** Vrm1 has quit IRC | 07:01 | |
alec_ | yeah | 07:01 |
alec_ | that's a huge pain IMO | 07:01 |
alec_ | hildon itself is a pain | 07:01 |
eccerr0r | it's not that bad, but bloaty | 07:02 |
bef0rd | i thought hildon was opensourced | 07:02 |
bef0rd | (the toolkit) | 07:02 |
bef0rd | not hildon-home | 07:02 |
eccerr0r | well, specifically the code needed for the phone dialer... | 07:02 |
eccerr0r | though did someone finally reverse engineer that so you could make calls on n900-android? | 07:03 |
*** b0unc3 has quit IRC | 07:17 | |
alec_ | anything you really like about your n900 that you didn't expect to like, eccerr0r? | 07:18 |
eccerr0r | it's about as I expected it to be when I decided to get one. | 07:19 |
Zaerc | I'm thinking about getting a second one, just to mess around with | 07:19 |
eccerr0r | tempted to do so too, just to figure out how to do the surgery and not have to worry about breaking this working one | 07:20 |
alec_ | how much did you pay, zaerc and eccerr0r? | 07:22 |
alec_ | i paid $195 for a new one | 07:22 |
eccerr0r | cheapest off ebay... | 07:22 |
alec_ | used or new? | 07:22 |
Zaerc | last year, about 180 euros for a second hand one | 07:22 |
Zaerc | now I see them going for about 75 euros | 07:23 |
Zaerc | (mine was as good as new) | 07:23 |
eccerr0r | they say to be wary about ones marked as "new" but I think the one I got is close enough, seems very close to "new" | 07:23 |
eccerr0r | the charger however was obviously not new, obvious scratches, etc., but the n900 was pristine | 07:24 |
Zaerc | wahey! my newly setup SDK works | 07:26 |
alec_ | actually if it's from china or hong kong you can be sure it's new | 07:26 |
alec_ | they hold on to new products for years there | 07:26 |
alec_ | my last phone i bought while travelling in hong kong; it was 2-3 years old also | 07:26 |
robbiethe1st | ...Or make a knock-off of it | 07:26 |
Zaerc | time to update the wiki page a bit... | 07:26 |
alec_ | yes, fake products are widespread in mainland china, but not hong kong | 07:27 |
alec_ | hong kong is far more technologically advanced and economically stable than europe or the US =) | 07:27 |
eccerr0r | but the charger obviously was not new :\ I can't tell if the phone is a fake or not but if it's fake, it's a very very good fake. I wonder if they faked the bad microusb too :D | 07:27 |
alec_ | anyway, it's pretty easy to tell fake products when in china | 07:27 |
alec_ | i lived there for a year and saw plenty | 07:27 |
alec_ | they're just obviously fake | 07:28 |
alec_ | fake ipods, etc | 07:28 |
alec_ | they just look fake | 07:28 |
alec_ | firmware is not ios, etc. | 07:28 |
eccerr0r | heh | 07:28 |
eccerr0r | but if this was a fake n900, it can run maemo apps directly still :D | 07:29 |
alec_ | exactly | 07:29 |
robbiethe1st | I've gotten several Nokia N900 chargers; the stamps/case/etc all identical. Guts, however... one had a lot of components, looked genuine, other was made with a handful(no PFC etc), obviously not Nokia | 07:29 |
alec_ | interesting, robbiethe1st | 07:29 |
alec_ | yes, that kind of fake stuff is very common in china | 07:29 |
alec_ | fake ipod chargers, cables, etc | 07:29 |
robbiethe1st | That being said... the cheap ones work perfectly well for the N900 | 07:30 |
alec_ | but, really, that's where it's being manufactured... so... | 07:30 |
eccerr0r | eh these small power supplies, I have yet to see one with PFC... then again I think European AC10s need to have PFC to be sold in the EU? | 07:30 |
alec_ | exactly; they come from the same factory even probably | 07:30 |
alec_ | just no name brand | 07:30 |
* alec_ actually goes to the store for tobacco now | 07:30 | |
*** b0unc3 has joined #maemo | 07:30 | |
eccerr0r | the worst small switching PSUs, the worst one I ever saw was a halfwave rectifier and no feedback | 07:30 |
eccerr0r | *OUCH* | 07:31 |
eccerr0r | but most of them are fullwave and have feedback loop... | 07:31 |
robbiethe1st | That being said, my N950 can tell the difference. Two chargers: with charger A plugged in, the screen won't respond at all or very occasionally to touch | 07:31 |
robbiethe1st | unplugged, or with B, works fine. | 07:31 |
robbiethe1st | My brother has the same problem with his N9 | 07:31 |
eccerr0r | currently I have an issue with my ac10c and two ca-101 cables - the ac10c only charges at 400mA, the CA101's charge at 300mA or so max... | 07:32 |
eccerr0r | my ca-101d and this dollar tree microusb cable - both will charge my n900 really fast... but both of them are really hard to plug into the n900 | 07:33 |
robbiethe1st | I'm not sure I'd really notice; I leave it plugged in over night | 07:33 |
eccerr0r | thus I have to do the surgery so that I don't pull the microusb out with the plug :( | 07:33 |
robbiethe1st | Yeah | 07:33 |
eccerr0r | it would be nice to just carry around the ca101d | 07:34 |
eccerr0r | that is really convenient... | 07:34 |
eccerr0r | i was using battery-eye... the ac10c and the ca101 charging slope are nowhere near the ca101d and the $1 cable... but they're much easier to connect and extract, lessening the risk of damage. | 07:36 |
*** jargon has quit IRC | 07:37 | |
eccerr0r | (ac10c: takes about 4 hours to charge from flat, ca-101 probably 8 hours. The tight ca101d and $1 cables will charge in 2 hours) | 07:37 |
*** b0unc3 has quit IRC | 07:37 | |
*** SmilyOrg has joined #maemo | 07:38 | |
robbiethe1st | What I did was custom-make myself a car charger - $3 switchmode buck converter set to 5v, USB port with middle pins soldered together, and a USB -> micro cable | 07:39 |
robbiethe1st | Seems to work nicely | 07:39 |
eccerr0r | i think it's probably the microusb ends | 07:40 |
robbiethe1st | ? | 07:40 |
eccerr0r | the loose ones don't charge as fast, might just be worn out | 07:40 |
eccerr0r | the tight ones of course still depend on what they're plugged into - I was using my bench power supply to test | 07:41 |
robbiethe1st | Perhaps; remember though that if the two middle pins aren't shorted, it won't charge at more than 400-500ma if ever | 07:41 |
eccerr0r | (well, actually I was testing the two CA101s, CA101D and the $1 cable all with the same PSU | 07:41 |
*** Smily has quit IRC | 07:42 | |
robbiethe1st | hm | 07:42 |
eccerr0r | the AC10C was an estimate by looking at charging numbers. | 07:42 |
robbiethe1st | are you sure the middle pins are shorted correctly? I don't quite know your setup? | 07:42 |
eccerr0r | I have a female USB-A that I shorted D+/D- together, and power straight to the bench PSU. So all four cables are used exactly the same during the test | 07:43 |
robbiethe1st | Because they have to be connected to each other (d+ to d-) and not connected to ground or power | 07:43 |
robbiethe1st | ah | 07:43 |
eccerr0r | the nice thing about the bench PSU is that I get the current reading so I don't have to depend on the bq24150 lying to me or not... | 07:44 |
DocScrutinizer05 | robbiethe1st: (screen won't respond) yep, same here | 07:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | eccerr0r: I strongly suggest you use onboard diagnostic means to check what's actually going on, rather than spreading nonsense about bq24150 allegedly lying | 07:54 |
eccerr0r | You may know the hardware more than I do, I don't trust any hardware I'm not familiar with. | 07:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, we learned about that during err 2 weeks now | 07:56 |
*** e-yes has quit IRC | 07:56 | |
eccerr0r | It's like trusting google doing what they say they're going to do with their data, and do something behind our backs. I'm not going to trust it until I can compare it real numbers | 07:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's just not very enlightening to hear you perpetuating same stuff over and over again, not checking the relevant parameters like voltage *at N900 USB* and then stating bq24150 would lie | 07:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and tbh your approach to claim that hw lies until you tested it shows more about your testing skills than about hw | 07:59 |
eccerr0r | I cannot measure the voltage at the N900 USB, and there apparently is no software that will do it, I don't see bq27200.sh writing it, I don't see charge21.sh writing it... | 07:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I don't see you bothering to learn about it | 08:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so please stop spreading nonsense as facts here | 08:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | bq24150 is NOT lying | 08:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and we explained to you several times in loving verbosity here what info you can acquire in which way onboard of N900, D+- short detection being just one of them | 08:02 |
eccerr0r | There's no way for me to know until all the external issues are removed. If the voltage the bq24150 sees on vbus was displayed prominently with available software then that would have cleared up the problem very quickly. | 08:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and if pigs had wings | 08:03 |
eccerr0r | how would I know that they don't? | 08:03 |
* DocScrutinizer05 yawns and wanders off | 08:03 | |
robbiethe1st | Well, do you smell pig sh*t from your roof? | 08:04 |
eccerr0r | they may have wings but it does not imply they can fly either. | 08:05 |
*** futpib has joined #maemo | 08:06 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | and if N900 had a plutonium battery you wouldn't need to worry about charging | 08:06 |
eccerr0r | I have to treat the unit as a black box. I don't know why people have such a problem with it especially because I don't even know if I had a "good" unit. Suppose there was a 10 ohm resistor on vbus in my particular unit... would be strange but there's no way for me to know | 08:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | honestly, your contributions are not exactly helpful, and your refusal to learn anything about N900 hw is outright annoying | 08:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LOOK AT THE SCHEMATICS DUDE! | 08:08 |
robbiethe1st | There's fully detailed schematics available | 08:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if you repeat another 10 times "no way for me to know2 it won't be any less false, but it will qualify you for my ignore list, or worse | 08:09 |
robbiethe1st | along with diagrams showing every single pin on each chip etc | 08:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there is a extremely simple path to probe for parasitary resistance on both USB VBUS and USB GND | 08:10 |
eccerr0r | Is the expectation for everyone to open their unit to verify that the circuit is indeed intact and in good shape? That would have had to be the next step to verify the voltage on vbus. | 08:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | by using an ohm-meter and the open end of usb cable and test points under battery | 08:11 |
* alec_ knows nothing about electrical engineering | 08:12 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | and yes, you can even probe the VBUS voltage between the pads under battery, thoug that is admittedly a tad clumsy since battery should be inserted for charging | 08:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there are datasheets for bq24150 and bq27200 available | 08:13 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and now pretty please stop telling us N900 is a blackbox | 08:13 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I can't stand it anymore | 08:13 |
eccerr0r | finally finding the service manuals was probably the single most valuable documentation to have... though I'd have to thank google for those... | 08:16 |

*** eMHa has quit IRC | 12:49 | |
wirr | Isn't it that vendors just are "cheating" their way through? moving out logic into filesystems (like wear-levelling and stuff) and giving us plain simple storage chips would make life easier | 12:50 |
ShadowJK | ya | 12:51 |
ShadowJK | Although, f2fs looks interesting, though you need to profile your card first for best results, and only the good cards will run nicely on f2fs | 12:52 |
wirr | i'll have a look at that | 12:52 |
ShadowJK | (where "nicely" is in a totally different ballpark than ext3/ext4/btrfs) | 12:52 |
ShadowJK | Also, the physical structure of flash these days is becoming a major headache | 12:54 |
wirr | you're talking about the raid-like clustering of the chips? | 12:55 |
ShadowJK | these days you no longer hope for SLC flash, you hope for MLC.. most is TLC though | 12:55 |
ShadowJK | so you have a block size of 12M and smallest writable unit of 36k or similarily fruity sizes | 12:56 |
ShadowJK | that dont fit well with how operating systems work :) | 12:56 |
kerio | i thought SLC was better | 12:57 |
alec__ | kerio; i can feel it already. how often do you use it? is there anything better? | 12:57 |
kerio | alec__: i just use the ubuntu vm | 12:57 |
alec__ | ok | 12:57 |
alec__ | aren't the compilers pretty out of date on the ubuntu vm, kerio? | 12:58 |
kerio | there's freemangordon's gcc4.7-linaro setup | 12:58 |
ShadowJK | kerio; yeah of course, i just mean nobody uses it anymore | 12:59 |
ShadowJK | mlc is the new slc, and tlc is the new mlc ;) | 12:59 |
alec__ | ah, where can i get that setup? | 12:59 |
alec__ | is that also a vm? | 12:59 |
kerio | alec__: there's instructions on wiki, they assume you already have the standard scratchbox setup | 12:59 |
kerio | ShadowJK: the problem with SDs is that the controller is *not* good enough to present a perfect block device with good performance | 13:00 |
ShadowJK | Also it's getting increasingly difficult to even theoretically transform the flash into good block device | 13:01 |
*** Martix_ has quit IRC | 13:01 | |
kerio | if only there was some kind of "raw" mode where you can access the underlying flash as a mtd... | 13:01 |
kerio | ShadowJK: ssds have good controllers | 13:02 |
ShadowJK | SSDs have an advantage in that they can store power, and keep a ram buffer to deal with OS's power-of-two transfers and the flash's power-of-three struxture | 13:02 |
kerio | also an advantage in space | 13:02 |
kerio | and i mean physical space for the circuitry | 13:03 |
ShadowJK | right | 13:03 |
*** jjo__ is now known as jjo_ | 13:03 | |
wirr | ShadowJK, can you tell me something about reader limitations? I've just built an sd storage device based on an old iaudio mp3 player using an sd card zif board. are max. supported sd card sizes depending on reader controller? | 13:08 |
SpeedEvil | generally no | 13:08 |
ShadowJK | if it does 4g cards it will do 64g, I'd think? | 13:08 |
wirr | that's what i'd assume | 13:08 |
SpeedEvil | almost all SD card controllers are 'software, | 13:08 |
ShadowJK | i've got a few usb card readers that don't do sdhc | 13:09 |
SpeedEvil | think of them more like network cards that talk to the SD | 13:09 |
SpeedEvil | this is ones built into microcontrollers or processors | 13:09 |
SpeedEvil | handling large capacities can generally be done with a software upgrade | 13:10 |
SpeedEvil | if it's got an embedded micro that handles the filesystem, this differs | 13:10 |

*** Chiku|dc has quit IRC | 21:20 | |
kerio | let me repeat that | 21:21 |
DocScrutinizer05 | XATRIX: I guess your problem is with PCsuite-mode vs mass-storage-mode. | 21:21 |
kerio | the adapter to connect the iphone 5 to a tv has the same amount of ram the n900 has | 21:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so what. kerio? | 21:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ram is cheap today | 21:22 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: we're in the future | 21:22 |
XATRIX | DocScrutinizer05, hm... but.. I choose PC-Suite mode while it pops up a dialog | 21:23 |
DocScrutinizer05 | then it's quite strange why you got those problems. Maybe the culprit is your PC? | 21:23 |
XATRIX | nope | 21:24 |
XATRIX | i remember i couldn't connect handset in proper mode, before the last reflash | 21:24 |
XATRIX | somewhere i found docs, they advised me to download some extra usb drivers for win7 and after , i was able to flash it | 21:25 |
XATRIX | my maemo-flasher was unable to reflash it before i changed drivers | 21:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, exactly. USB drivers for *WIN7* | 21:25 |
kerio | flashing on windows is a crapshoot, aiui | 21:26 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sorry, no windows here. But it's a generally known problem also for linux that PCsuite with cdc_phonet driver conflicts with flashing | 21:26 |
XATRIX | why it is no windows here ? | 21:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so probably whatever you did to make flashing under windows work might also have killed PCsuite mode en passant | 21:27 |
XATRIX | i'm using linux everyday, but never flash something with linux | 21:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | why no windows here??? because I didn't feel like wasting money and/or time for such a crap. My PC is happy without any windows running on it. Me as well | 21:29 |
kerio | i've got plenty of windows open right now | 21:30 |

XATRIX | Sorry, simply i have two reasons to have windows... I have a GF, and i play :) | 21:31 |
kerio | cool story bro | 21:31 |
XATRIX | And who said i paid it ? :) | 21:31 |
kerio | did you just admit to what is at the very least a civil liability on a public channel | 21:32 |
Skry | you take pride on stealing? ;| | 21:32 |
kerio | with public logs | 21:32 |
XATRIX | Em...sorry i didn't get it. My english is not so good ? What do you mean ? | 21:33 |
eccerr0r | I paid the M$ tax on my notebooks. | 21:33 |
Zaerc | ummm... stealing isn't the same as not paying a license fee | 21:34 |
eccerr0r | he might have got it "free" when buying a computer? | 21:34 |
Zaerc | there is a subtle difference | 21:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ugh, 30min and wikiwide didn't thank yet on http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1326428#post1326428 - I'm worried ;-D | 21:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and I can't agree with Zaerc | 21:35 |
kerio | i'll thank you! | 21:35 |
*** eMHa has joined #maemo | 21:35 | |
Zaerc | stealing is the taking of a physical object | 21:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | as a sw-developer I think there's absolutely no difference between stealing and running a cracked or not properly licenced software | 21:36 |
Zaerc | making a copy and not paying for it is something else | 21:36 |
Zaerc | your opinion has no weight in the matter | 21:36 |
kerio | yeah, stealing and copying a number is different | 21:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | maybe in your language and jurisdiction | 21:36 |
Zaerc | it's the same in english | 21:37 |
kerio | stealing is unlawful acquisition of *material goods* | 21:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | where I live it's both the pretty same § in laws and same crime | 21:37 |
Zaerc | that's completely irrelevant | 21:37 |
eccerr0r | When making fake copies of money, is that stealing or counterfeiting? | 21:37 |
Zaerc | copying and stealing are two different things | 21:38 |
kerio | eccerr0r: the problem when counterfeiting money isn't the copyright violation | 21:38 |
Zaerc | and yeah the law differentiates between taking a picture of a painting, and stealing that painting | 21:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: maybe in your language. Here we also call it stealing when somebody is breaking into an office and taking photographs of a secret data | 21:39 |
kerio | that's spionage | 21:39 |
eccerr0r | there is sort of a law against copying money too... | 21:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you can even steal ideas here | 21:39 |
kerio | and... hm, is the act of taking photographs illegal, or is it the breaking&entering that's illegal there? | 21:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | spionge == the act of stealing secret information | 21:39 |
kerio | no, it's the act of acquiring secret information | 21:40 |
kerio | you can't steal information, remember | 21:40 |
DocScrutinizer05 | tbh I don't give a shit | 21:40 |
Zaerc | well I suppose you could if you'd remove the physical medium | 21:40 |
kerio | if i give you my apple and you give me your apple we both only have an apple, but if i tell you my idea and you tell me your idea we both have two ideas | 21:40 |
kerio | except if the idea was DocScrutinizer05's, in which case he doesn't have that idea anymore because you stole it | 21:41 |
DocScrutinizer05 | neither XATRIX not Zaerc comments are much appreciated | 21:41 |
eccerr0r | too much gray area here. | 21:41 |
kerio | for some reason | 21:41 |
*** nox- has joined #maemo | 21:41 | |
XATRIX | DocScrutinizer05: What ? I didn't say a word here for now | 21:42 |
Zaerc | DocScrutinizer05: by you maybe | 21:42 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and again, maybe in your language | 21:42 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Zaerc: no, by freenode | 21:42 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: i'm sorry, but if german can't distinguish between the act of stealing a physical object and the act of unlawfully copying information, then it's a crappy language | 21:42 |
Zaerc | DocScrutinizer05: says who? | 21:42 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and for sure by maemo | 21:42 |
DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: so what. Yours sounds idiotic | 21:43 |
Zaerc | Zaerc: so now you're the ruler of both freenode and maemo? | 21:43 |
kerio | kerio: stop talking to yourself! | 21:43 |
kerio | Zaerc: fwiw freenode policy is fairly clear on this | 21:44 |
Zaerc | that you can't discuss the difference between stealing and copying? | 21:44 |
kerio | no, that's allowed | 21:44 |
Zaerc | then how am I violating policy? | 21:45 |
kerio | i think that encouraging illegal behaviour is against freenode policy | 21:45 |
kerio | ...although i'm not entirely sure about that | 21:45 |
Zaerc | so now suddenly I'm encouraging illegal behavior? | 21:45 |
*** zeq has joined #maemo | 21:46 | |
Zaerc | because I don't agree with the moronic copying==stealing mantra? | 21:46 |
eccerr0r | copying=illegal, stealing is illegal, therefore copying=stealing. | 21:47 |
Zaerc | if copying were illegal, everyone in the open-source movement would be a criminal | 21:47 |
eccerr0r | I don't know what point I was trying to make there actually | 21:47 |
kerio | eccerr0r: your lack of understanding of logic, maybe :P | 21:48 |
Zaerc | violating copyrights is not the same as copying | 21:48 |
kerio | Zaerc: pretty much everyone agrees with you, it's just a boring conversation | 21:48 |
Zaerc | I agree | 21:49 |
Zaerc | I'm just appaled at the narrowmindedness displayed here | 21:49 |
*** SmilyOrg is now known as Smily | 21:50 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | google for "Datendiebstahl" | 21:51 |
*** BCMM has joined #maemo | 21:51 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | German laws don't really consider unlawful copying any different than taking away physical goods | 21:51 |
DocScrutinizer05 | neither does German language, based on jurisdiction. Since it's diebstahl it's called diebstahl | 21:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | In our jurisdiction you don't need to remove something physical from a victim's property to do an act of stealing | 21:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | as already mentioned we know the semantic concept of "stealing ideas" here since long | 21:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | this doesn't imply we would all think the victim lost the idea and can't remember anymore | 21:55 |
kerio | yeah, the whole concept of stealing ideas is fucked up | 21:55 |
teotwaki | what the fuck has everyone been smoking these days | 21:57 |
Zaerc | Diebostahl der; -(e)s, Diebost?hole; das verbotene Nehmen (Stehlen) von Dingen, die anderen geh?ren <einen Diebstahl begehen; jemanden wegen Diebstahls anzeigen, verurteilen> | 21:58 |
Zaerc | according to http://de.thefreedictionary.com/diebstahl | 21:58 |
Zaerc | so you may want to get in touch with the people making dictionaries | 21:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no i won't | 21:59 |
teotwaki | "the forbidden act of taking things" | 21:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you may want to get in touch with reality and follow my suggestion to google for Datendiebstahl | 22:00 |
teotwaki | Seems pretty clear to me. | 22:00 |
*** em has quit IRC | 22:00 | |
teotwaki | But then again, Diebstahl also means robbery and whatnot, no? Same as in Dutch, diefstal. | 22:00 |
kerio | teotwaki: both "taking" and "things" is a bit ambiguous, when talking about digital things | 22:01 |
kerio | s/is/are/ | 22:01 |
infobot | kerio meant: teotwaki: both "taking" and "things" are a bit ambiguous, when talking about digital things | 22:01 |
DocScrutinizer05 | teotwaki: indeed, taking possession of something only implies that the object had to remove on ots original location when *you* imply that | 22:01 |
*** em has joined #maemo | 22:01 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: no, it's not | 22:01 |
Zaerc | the reality is that copying and stealing are two different concepts | 22:02 |
teotwaki | well, I'm with kerio on this one: Copying a file doesn't make you lose your copy. | 22:02 |
kerio | it's a fscking number, you can't steal a number | 22:02 |
*** dhbiker has quit IRC | 22:02 | |
teotwaki | Basically, stealing means you prevent someone from enjoying their ownership. That doesn't happen with digital files. | 22:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Zaerc: nobody talked about copying | 22:02 |
Zaerc | if you can't see that because you're blinded by language and legislation... | 22:02 |
teotwaki | kerio: send me your /etc/hosts file. Are you now unable to ping localhost? | 22:03 |
Zaerc | DocScrutinizer05: that's all I've been talking about | 22:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | teotwaki: how's that relevant | 22:03 |
teotwaki | Well, people who say copying files is illegal should realise they do so all the time. | 22:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | as quoted above in german language the definition of stealing is "illegal taking of possession of something" | 22:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | NOT "removing something somewhere illegaly" | 22:04 |
teotwaki | actually, no | 22:04 |
Zaerc | the german law is not the highest authority here | 22:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for me it is | 22:04 |
Zaerc | and that's obviosly your problem | 22:05 |
teotwaki | it clearly says, in the thingie above: "illegally taking something" | 22:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and I don't care about your highest authority since we never discussed that | 22:05 |
Zaerc | we're talking concept, not legislation | 22:05 |
teotwaki | The way I interpret "taking" is "stripping ownership away from the previous owner". | 22:05 |
teotwaki | It has nothing to do with me *taking* ownership. | 22:06 |
teotwaki | It's about what you deny the person who used to own it. | 22:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you can use the Holy Bible or Manson for your highest authority, we however discussed German law and more originally why it's deprecated to encourage stealing sowftware here in this channel | 22:06 |
Zaerc | no, your discussing german law | 22:06 |
teotwaki | Except that again, with digital files, you don't deny anyone using said file. | 22:06 |
teotwaki | ie: They didn't lose ownership. | 22:07 |
Zaerc | we were discussing wether copying and stealing are the same | 22:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's irrelevant | 22:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | YOU discussed that | 22:07 |
Zaerc | that's how the discussion got started | 22:07 |
Zaerc | the only one interested in german law is you | 22:07 |
teotwaki | Zaerc: you're not helping. | 22:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no, the discussion started like [2013-03-02 20:32:06] <kerio> did you just admit to what is at the very least a civil liability on a public channel | 22:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | [2013-03-02 20:32:14] <Skry> you take pride on stealing? ;| | 22:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and more originally with [2013-03-02 20:31:43] <XATRIX> And who said i paid it ? :) | 22:09 |
Zaerc | indeed, I objected to the word stealing | 22:09 |
Zaerc | nobody mentioned german law | 22:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | meh, you're so extremely boring me with your sophism | 22:10 |
Zaerc | lol | 22:10 |
teotwaki | DocScrutinizer05: then play with me, unless you find me boring as well? | 22:10 |
teotwaki | kerio: come out and play. | 22:11 |
kerio | but we agree on everything :( | 22:12 |
teotwaki | us two? | 22:12 |
teotwaki | or everyone in the channel? | 22:12 |
kerio | us two | 22:13 |
teotwaki | I can play the devil's advocate, I don't care. | 22:13 |
teotwaki | Here, I'll take my mom's position. | 22:13 |
kerio | >sophism | 22:13 |
teotwaki | (that sounds wrong) | 22:13 |
Zaerc | you can always disagree on agreeing about everything, just for the sake of it ;) | 22:13 |
kerio | as an old sage once said, "meh, you're so extremely boring me with your sophism" | 22:14 |
Skry | lol? | 22:14 |
*** wirr has quit IRC | 22:15 | |
teotwaki | "I make 10-20k a year from royalties, yet I refuse to pay for adobe lightroom. People who steal my music should be sued. I sued a school that performed a concert of mine, but didn't pay royalties. Help. There's a virus on my mac. l1ghtr00m.h4x with a skull on it on my desktop? That's nothing." | 22:15 |
teotwaki | Or a pretty big role model to me: "Piracy is bad. You may want that nice Ferrari, but you wouldn't just go out and steal it, would you? Just because you can't afford it isn't an excuse to steal a CD. Yeah, there's my stack of music edition software, go ahead and load it up on your mac." | 22:17 |
teotwaki | Oh fuck it, I can't defend those positions. They're moronic and outdated. Who the fuck am I kidding. I develop software for a living, and I refuse to use the word piracy. | 22:19 |
teotwaki | DocScrutinizer05: you're no fun. | 22:20 |

kerio | and a 951.6M partition | 23:32 |
*** Venusaur has quit IRC | 23:32 | |
XATRIX | What does mean .modest ? | 23:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | 23:33 | |
XATRIX | ok | 23:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | nfc why it creates dirs on uSD | 23:33 |

XATRIX | do i have to extract my external flash while flashing device ? | 23:39 |
XATRIX | or i can leave it there? | 23:39 |
Zaerc | it shouldn't be affected afaik | 23:40 |
XATRIX | i hope it won't interfer | 23:41 |
Zaerc | you can always take it out to be on the safe side | 23:42 |
XATRIX | Ok, now i will start asking some questions , to make it clear for me | 23:42 |
XATRIX | Some time ago, i was advised by Doc to reflash my device cause i messed up everything | 23:42 |
SpeedEvil | removing the back should ensure it's read only | 23:42 |
XATRIX | Beacause now i have my device tells me my batter dischargin rate is ~3A :) | 23:43 |
XATRIX | Doc was really angry of this | 23:44 |
XATRIX | Now i have to fix this crap :) | 23:44 |
XATRIX | Alright, i'd like to use powerkernel after reflash | 23:45 |
XATRIX | is it ok ? Also, i'd like to make my device to use as less power consumption as possible | 23:45 |
Zaerc | powerkernel should be fine I reckon | 23:46 |
ShadowJK | even I moved to pk | 23:46 |
XATRIX | Alright. It's clear. The second queston. Do i have to install/enable any features to make my battery live longer ? | 23:47 |
DocScrutinizer05 | pk is fine. bme-replacement, not yet | 23:47 |
*** NIN101 has quit IRC | 23:47 | |
XATRIX | em.... why not ? | 23:47 |
*** Venusaur has joined #maemo | 23:47 | |
XATRIX | will it provide me correct chargin data ? | 23:47 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and no, pretty please don't install any battery enhancement stuff, it's all nonsense | 23:47 |
XATRIX | Yes, i noted it | 23:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | XATRIX: bme replacement is still highly experimental | 23:48 |
XATRIX | Is it inside the pk ? | 23:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no | 23:48 |
XATRIX | Or it shoud be installed outside of ? | 23:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | pk is "clean" | 23:49 |
ShadowJK | though if running pk, "kernel-config load default" in xterminal after boot might reduce poweruse in non-idle mode slightly | 23:49 |
ShadowJK | But yeah, generally a clean install is quite power efficient.. it's what you do after that :) | 23:49 |
XATRIX | Ok.. But do i have to install bme replacement also ? | 23:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no, you shall NOT install bme replacement | 23:51 |
XATRIX | ok | 23:51 |
kerio | bme-replacement works fine, apart for some weirdness in the handling of the LED | 23:51 |
kerio | as long as you have kp52 | 23:52 |
XATRIX | Also i'd like to ask about BleedingEdge wifi drivers | 23:52 |
kerio | but it's highly experimental | 23:52 |
XATRIX | I couldn't load it with my currect installation | 23:52 |
kerio | XATRIX: they have problems with power consumption | 23:52 |
kerio | so only use them to do packet injection | 23:52 |
XATRIX | Hm... i don't crack anything | 23:53 |
kerio | then don't use them | 23:53 |
XATRIX | Ok, but this thing has a cool panel wifi-toggle :) | 23:54 |
XATRIX | very handy | 23:54 |
Estel_ | kerio, btw, are you awarwe how to disable bme replacement (i.e. avoiding device shutdown)? | 23:54 |
Estel_ | eqauivalent of old'bad' stop bme? | 23:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | interesting question | 23:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | modprobe -r bq24150? | 23:55 |
Estel_ | Pali, ^ last time I've asked about this, we started to talk about edv1 and making shutdown configurable, and my qauestion got forgotten | 23:55 |
Estel_ | DocScrutinizer05, not likely, as shutdown is calledd from dsme? | 23:55 |
kerio | try modprobe -r bq27x00_battery | 23:55 |
Estel_ | bq27 doesngt have anything to do with it | 23:55 |
* ShadowJK should add a shutdown to his userspace charge31... | 23:55 | |
kerio | Estel_: your only bet is to stop hald-addon-bme from doing things | 23:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | dsme doesn't really have to do anything with it | 23:56 |
Pali | rmmod drivers | 23:56 |
Estel_ | DocScrutinizer05, sorry, just quoting Pali :P | 23:56 |
kerio | ...i reckon that rmmodding bq27x00_battery would just make the phone shutdown | 23:56 |
Estel_ | kerio, no, it doesnt | 23:56 |
Pali | hald-addon-bme will handle it | 23:56 |
kerio | yay | 23:56 |
Estel_ | I triwed it zillion times while writing new version of bnf | 23:56 |
Estel_ | Pali, it will? | 23:56 |
Estel_ | OK | 23:57 |
Pali | and will wait until kernel provides power supply interface again | 23:57 |
Estel_ | of course it's just ugly workaround for calibration, 'till version with gconf configurable treeshold arrives :) | 23:57 |
ShadowJK | lol | 23:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | well, afaik hald-addon-bme is detecting conditions to shutdown, and then uses dsme to initiate friendly shutdown | 23:57 |
Estel_ | DocScrutinizer05, I see | 23:58 |
Estel_ | Pali, no way ny just "frozing" hald-addon-bme, btw? | 23:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | while it uses kernel modules to acquire data of whether or not to shutdown | 23:58 |
Estel_ | s/ny/by/ | 23:58 |
infobot | Estel_ meant: Pali, no way by just "frozing" hald-addon-bme, btw? | 23:58 |
Pali | hald-addon-bme trying to read bq27x power_supply values every 30 (?) s | 23:59 |
Pali | and every 60 (?) s checking if bq2415x is loaded | 23:59 |
