DocScrutinizer05 | [notice] seems repository is down. We (maemo tech staff) can't access the machine serving it. We contacted Nemein support to fix the issue | 00:27 |

Pali | DocScrutinizer05, it is even worse with linux desktop: lennart (red hat) killed udev and canonical trying to kill X server and wayland | 00:29 |
Pali | canonical creating poettering like display server | 00:29 |
Skry | lennart has been busy indeed | 00:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sixwheeledbeast: nah, we don't monitor "old" infra that closely anymore, since tech staff is more than busy fixing shit on *new* infra | 00:30 |
Pali | with android's compatibility for binary blobs | 00:30 |
Pali | way to the hell | 00:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Pali: :-(( | 00:33 |
Pali | and even worse canonical doing on their display server (replacement for X) for more months behind closed doors | 00:34 |
sixwheeledbeast | DocScrutinizer05: thought I'd mention the IP for r.m.o isn't the same as on the wiki page. | 00:34 |
sixwheeledbeast | r.m.o = .205 but on wiki is .203 | 00:35 |
warfare | sixwheeledbeast: we can't access DNS yet, so we could not migrate services to new infrastructure yet. Which was good, because we got hit by a strage Xen/Kernel bug today.. | 00:35 |
DocScrutinizer05 | while for around a decade and more it's been the topmost goal to make linux compatible with other unixes, it's now a fsckng "we're linux, what do we care about anybody else (except microsoft and windows), we define our own standards" | 00:35 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sixwheeledbeast: thanks, that wiki info is outdated, since we / Nemein reassigne r.m.o to stage | 00:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | stage is .205 | 00:39 |
sixwheeledbeast | DocScrutinizer05: warfare: kk thanks | 00:39 |
Skry | I believe one reason too is the "new" blood in developers, lot of them coming from Windows to *buntu having no ideological, ethical, historical or whatsoever relation to anything unix-like. Then there are corporations who do what they want. | 00:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sixwheeledbeast: thanks for mentioning it | 00:40 |

sixwheeledbeast | Macer: why | 00:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | seems you can find mirrors/archives/logs for virtually everything in the interweb, just not for DNS | 00:49 |
Macer | sixwheeledbeast: they said it was from just activating it | 00:50 |
Macer | and i have to wait a couple of hours | 00:50 |

Macer | there you go :) | 05:17 |
Macer | lol | 05:17 |
Macer | brutal honesty is always the best kind | 05:18 |
Macer | speaking of which | 05:19 |
Macer | DocScrutinizer05: apparently debian is able to find its way onto newer devices using an android bootloader and the android kernel | 05:19 |
Macer | my point being.. maybe maemo would be a good choice to see about getting onto other devices :) is that even possible? because without production of n900s maemo is just a white dwarf cooling down | 05:20 |
*** uen| has joined #maemo | 05:20 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | this white dwarf will take ages to cool down, as usual with those. and it been borne by a supernova that - by blasing away its outer hulls - created a hockwave that will give birth to new more flourishing systems in the neigbourhood | 05:22 |
Macer | yeah but you need ample material to do so :-P and a white dwarf is not necessarily from supernovae. supernovae usually product neutron stars or black holes because of their mass | 05:23 |
Macer | a white dwarf is usually a smaller yellow star | 05:23 |
Macer | that runs out of material and dies after turning into a red giant | 05:23 |
Macer | and shedding what little it had left off itself because of its loss of mass/gravity and can no longer hold onto itself | 05:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | the red giant is Harmattan, no doubt ;-P | 05:24 |
*** uen has quit IRC | 05:24 | |
*** uen| is now known as uen | 05:24 | |
Macer | then turns into a little white ball which eventually cools down | 05:24 |
Macer | unless another star comes along that it can feed off of and blow up :) | 05:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ate all planets it ever had, then collapsing | 05:24 |
Macer | heh | 05:25 |
Macer | either way. with the advent of debian being able to be placed on newer model phones | 05:25 |
Macer | maybe the community may want to look at that as a way to get maemo on them | 05:25 |
Macer | instead of eventually running out of fuel (n900s) | 05:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | we always had that option. Though without any decent hw-support, and I don't see that changing | 05:25 |
Macer | but the hw support should be that difficult if all the hardware is working and the apis are in place.. all of which i am sure the debian guys wouldn't mind helping with | 05:26 |
Macer | maybe even a debian/maemo merger might be a good idea | 05:26 |
* jpinx logged into the thread, but has nfc about the issues/people | 05:26 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | is there any decent new device that has hw-kbd and non-FSCKNG-c-ts? | 05:26 |
Macer | that's a fair point :-/ heh | 05:26 |
Macer | but n810 didn't have a qwerty either ;) | 05:27 |
Macer | and maemo wasn't too bad on that | 05:27 |
Macer | and there is also stuff like the note | 05:27 |
*** githogori has quit IRC | 05:27 | |
jpinx | the n900 hardware will take some beating (apart from the usb port problem | 05:27 |
Macer | which has a large enough screen to make a vkb viable | 05:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | errr, what else was it N810 had? | 05:27 |
Macer | jpinx: there are a lot with the modem issue as well | 05:27 |
Macer | heh | 05:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | a qwertz? | 05:27 |
Macer | qwerty :-P | 05:28 |
Macer | too | 05:28 |
jpinx | virtual kbd's are a pita | 05:28 |
Macer | you germans.. with your z :-P | 05:28 |
Macer | jpinx: i agree | 05:28 |
Macer | but there aren't any devices coming out with hw kbs anymore nowadays | 05:28 |
Macer | i blame europe | 05:28 |
Macer | with their qwertz | 05:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | my N810 has a pretty good hw kbd, better than N900 | 05:28 |
Macer | :) | 05:28 |
jpinx | Macer: modem issues? my n900 spends most of it's life connecting my laptop to the world | 05:28 |
Macer | i guess it is easier to layout a vkb | 05:28 |
Macer | instead of supporting maps for different hw kbs? | 05:28 |
Macer | at least that's what xsacha said in symbian which made perfect sense | 05:29 |
Macer | jpinx: look it up. quite a few people (myself included) had their modems die | 05:29 |
Macer | where they would no longer read the sim or read the sim as not being inserted | 05:29 |
Macer | it wasn't a pin issue | 05:29 |
Macer | something else broke | 05:29 |
Macer | even nokia gave me an off the wall solution | 05:29 |
Macer | "Try wedging a piece of paper in the battery compartment" | 05:30 |
Macer | lol | 05:30 |
Macer | NOKIA said to do this! | 05:30 |
jpinx | Macer: that has worked for me with other mobiles ;) | 05:30 |
Macer | after not honoring my warranty because the device was a UK device and i was in the US | 05:30 |
Macer | it worked for me as well for a while | 05:30 |
Macer | then again it stopped | 05:30 |
Macer | and you can only shove so much paper into the compartment ;) | 05:30 |
jpinx | Macer: hardware dies - it's a fact of life ;) | 05:30 |
Macer | yeah but the n900 i had before that | 05:30 |
Macer | had the usb port fall off | 05:31 |
Macer | so that's 2 i went through | 05:31 |
jpinx | I have a spare unused n900 ready ;) | 05:31 |
Macer | heh | 05:31 |
DocScrutinizer05 | nokia helpdesk==idiots with a poor database on their PC | 05:31 |
Macer | DocScrutinizer05: i get that but i mean that was something i never would have expected from a customer support | 05:31 |
Macer | "Shove paper into it." | 05:31 |
Macer | wtf? :) | 05:31 |
* jpinx never dealt with nokia helpdesk - only irc ;) | 05:31 | |
Macer | "Hit it with a hammer while dancing around it." | 05:31 |
DocScrutinizer05 | lol, kinda | 05:31 |
Macer | either way.. my point being that things happen.. they are no longer in production so they will die out | 05:32 |
Macer | even die hard people will break theirs and say "what is the point anymore" and just move on | 05:32 |
Macer | without there being a fresh pool of hardware | 05:32 |
Macer | which is why i asked about hte debian on android phones projects ;) | 05:32 |
Macer | because it seemed like a good area to expand into | 05:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's what you get when 200 indians google the net for answers to problems confronted to 1st level helpdesk | 05:32 |
Macer | at the very least a good open area to keep maemo viable... make a better vkb | 05:33 |
Macer | heh | 05:33 |
jpinx | Macer: debian would have issues with the touchscreen I think | 05:33 |
Macer | yeah | 05:33 |
Macer | i think that is the only area they are having problems with :-/ | 05:33 |
Macer | but you're a group of smart guys.. maybe you can get maemo working with it :) | 05:33 |
Macer | lol | 05:33 |
jpinx | ubuntu <shudder> has a touchscreen version | 05:33 |
Macer | plus you'd be doing the debian/ubuntu guys a favor | 05:33 |
Macer | and favors are always nice | 05:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | *burrp* | 05:34 |
jpinx | DocScrutinizer05: does more favours with free advice in here than you can count ;) | 05:34 |
Macer | i understand that but favors in dev are probably a bit better than favors for me asking about shoving paper into my n900 ;) | 05:34 |
Macer | ie: they can probably help with dev issues you are having problems with | 05:34 |
Macer | the problems may be similar to theirs etc | 05:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | before I do canonical a favor the hell will freeze over | 05:35 |
jpinx | Macer: I'm a debian user and I reckon it'll be a whilte before debain is ready for touchscreen ... meantime all the old n900 hardware will have failed | 05:35 |
Macer | i'm just saying that .... maemo will eventually require expansion | 05:35 |
Macer | especially on the hardware front | 05:35 |
Macer | the numbers are dwindling | 05:35 |
Macer | just throwing that out there for consideration | 05:35 |
Macer | it may be a good move to make | 05:36 |
jpinx | afaict maemo exists only because nokia would not open their drivers | 05:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | exactly | 05:36 |
jpinx | with open drivers the n900 could probably run on debian stable | 05:36 |
Macer | hey the n900 is a scrappy device | 05:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | not only drivers. Middleware, and core apps like dialer, calendar etc | 05:37 |
Macer | but it's dated | 05:37 |
Macer | i still like playing old nintendo games :) | 05:37 |
jpinx | DocScrutinizer05: what's the chances of nokia opening up now that the hardware is no longer in production ? | 05:37 |
orlok | lol | 05:37 |
orlok | fuck all | 05:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | zilch | 05:37 |
orlok | remember who runs nokia now | 05:37 |
Macer | MS ? ;) | 05:37 |
jpinx | Hmm -- true :( | 05:37 |
orlok | yup | 05:37 |
orlok | i speak to an ex maemo dev on another channel | 05:38 |
orlok | he managed to get work at intel over there | 05:38 |
Macer | heh | 05:38 |
orlok | had nothing good to say about what happened | 05:38 |
Macer | intel is a non-factor in the mobile market | 05:38 |
Macer | they need to make something that doesn't require a fan | 05:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | a) they don't own the (C) of a lot of stuff made by colabora et al. b) they would need to get stuff reviewed by their lawyers which is a painfully long and expensive process | 05:38 |
jpinx | I know a couple of maemo devs - now employed elsewhere - there comments are priceless | 05:39 |
orlok | Macer: they have, and they are employing a lot of ex-nokia maemo people apaprently | 05:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | c) they won't earn a single dollar by doing so | 05:39 |
Macer | orlok: i'll believe it when i see it ;) | 05:39 |
orlok | Macer: Intel's responsible for whatever maemo turned into, are they not? | 05:39 |
Macer | meego? they had a small part to play | 05:39 |
Macer | but that doesn't help them with their hw engineering ;) | 05:39 |
Macer | i believe intel was "one of partners..." | 05:40 |
Macer | along with nokia who a few months later abandoned it in favor of saving their asses with MS money | 05:40 |
Macer | intel has to be like a decade behind arm if not more | 05:40 |
jpinx | has to be said that nokia have totally lost the plot | 05:41 |
jpinx | shame really -- they made some excellent hardware years ago..... | 05:41 |
Macer | sure did.... i just recently got an e7 heh | 05:41 |
Macer | the thing is like 10x better than anything android | 05:41 |
Macer | i was shocked how good belle was . they were really just right there with it | 05:42 |
Macer | then just went all over the dart board trying to stop the stock price slaughter from iphone and android show just shoved them off the hill | 05:42 |
Macer | i honestly think if they stuck with symbian just another year ... and kept maemo/meego niche for a bit longer .. they'd have made it through :) | 05:43 |
Macer | but i guess panic is a bitch | 05:44 |
jpinx | panic indeed - now I hope the maemo project won't panin in the same way | 05:45 |
Macer | well.. like i suggested.... expansion of hardware should be an incredibly important factor .. with nothing readily available it will just fade :) but that's just me. i could be wrong. | 05:46 |
jpinx | Macer: I choose the n900 because the hardware is solid, and the OS was something like debian | 05:46 |
Macer | as did i heh | 05:46 |
Macer | i'm sure most did | 05:47 |
Macer | it's absolutely awesome | 05:47 |
Macer | but i've had 2 die on me ;) so minus 2 from the hardware pool | 05:47 |
Macer | and it isn't like the cells are regenerating anymore lol | 05:47 |
jpinx | but there is so much could be done with it if the hardware drivers were opened up | 05:47 |
*** fmunozs has joined #maemo | 05:48 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | there are no closed drivers | 05:48 |
jpinx | Macer: I am looking for broken screen n900's to buy and fix to act as future replacements | 05:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | drivers are kernel space which by GPL needs to be FOSS | 05:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's the middleware that's fsckdup by obfuscation | 05:49 |
jpinx | DocScrutinizer05: ok - I stand corrected, but the parts of the system which are currently closed and preventing an android like developement | 05:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | like PA plugins that don't allow porting katest PA to maemo fremantle | 05:49 |
* jpinx never heard the term "middleware" before ;) | 05:50 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | you have same shit on android, just worse | 05:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ~wiki middleware | 05:50 |
infobot | At http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middleware (URL), Wikipedia explains: "In its most general sense, 'middleware' is computer software that provides services to software applications beyond those available from the operating system. Middleware can be described as "software glue".[http://web.archive.org/web/20120629211518/http://www.middleware.org/whatis.html What is Middleware?] Thus middleware is not obviously part of an operating system, not a database ... | 05:50 |
jpinx | ;) | 05:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ~closed | 05:51 |
infobot | it has been said that closed is http://wiki.maemo.org/Why_the_closed_packages or https://wiki.maemo.org/Fremantle_closed_packages | 05:51 |
DocScrutinizer05 | all those fucking libs essential for maemo and not even focumented API | 05:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | documented* | 05:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | gettings cell broadcast SMs to work, jonwil had to patch a libisi binary since no sourcecode available to fix a silly bug in it | 05:53 |
*** muellisoft has quit IRC | 05:54 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | same for PA and audio policies, which Pali tackled | 05:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there are zillions more | 05:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ask SpeedEvil | 05:55 |
jpinx | :s | 05:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | his bonmot about how maemo got designed is unsurpassed | 05:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you can't help but have to think they did that on purpose | 05:57 |
SpeedEvil | I've in the past said that maemo was designed to allow application development, and no more. | 05:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and on HARM they excelled on it | 05:57 |
jpinx | yes - it's like they wanted a shelf-life on the system | 05:57 |
*** fmunozs has quit IRC | 05:57 | |
jpinx | harm is a disaster | 05:57 |
SpeedEvil | there are a twisty maze of interconnected daemons, all talking over in, or poorly documented interfaces. | 05:57 |
SpeedEvil | without source, so you basically have to reimplement all the closed bits damn near from scratch. or do really, really nasty reverse engineering. if you want to for example add an internet connection protocol that isn't supported | 05:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | check timed | 05:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | alarmd | 05:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | missioncontrol | 05:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you name it | 05:59 |
SpeedEvil | even if these were opensource, it wouldn't be easy to replace them | 06:00 |
SpeedEvil | simply because of their interconnectedness. | 06:00 |

DocScrutinizer05 | reading that, you'll realize that maemo is stillborn for a foss project | 06:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Nokia promissed but cheated on us, and never delivered | 06:03 |
jpinx | wiki.maemo.org uses an invalid security certificate. | 06:03 |
jpinx | The certificate expired on 12/08/12 06:59. | 06:03 |

DocScrutinizer05 | guess who's in charge | 06:04 |
*** dockane has quit IRC | 06:04 | |
*** lxp has quit IRC | 06:04 | |
jpinx | who ? | 06:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | since maemo.org domain still isn't owned by "us2 there's just so much we can do about it | 06:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://roundup.fourecks.de/maemo/issue4 et al | 06:06 |
jpinx | for sure nokia will be trying to quietly strangle maemo etc to force people into their new stuff | 06:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I bet they don't give a shit about those maybe 20k maemo users still active | 06:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Nokia builds 20k devixes for the trashbin, on PV runs in their fab | 06:08 |
jpinx | of course they give a shit - that's why they are killing the old system and forcing those users to buy into the new stuff | 06:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and that's the whole problem - maemo doesn't matter no more | 06:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | dearm on | 06:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | dream even | 06:09 |
jpinx | ;) | 06:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Nokia sold i'd guess 2 Mio N900, probbaly quite a bit more of N9, and they don't care about those 30k still active N900 of today | 06:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | not even worth a single engineer's or manager's thoughts of a single day | 06:10 |
jpinx | 30k users is a drop in the ocean | 06:10 |
jpinx | totally insignificant in corporate terms | 06:11 |
robbiethe1st | Well, guys, I want a good, open N900 replacement. Get busy! | 06:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | heck, they had an akamai server farm for repo and even for tablets-dev. Now we're servicing that with a single VM on a 100Mb/s uplink, and we have lots of headroom | 06:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | robbiethe1st: sell kits, dude! sell kits! | 06:13 |
robbiethe1st | I'd be willing to spend a few hundred $ if I could get a decent tablet with something open on it. | 06:13 |
jpinx | raspbery pi ? | 06:14 |
DocScrutinizer05 | haha, everybody is | 06:14 |
robbiethe1st | And Android /does not count/, as it sucks. Give me Hildon, damnit! | 06:14 |
robbiethe1st | The problem is that all the few 'open' tablets I've seen, have crummy specs. absolutely horrible. | 06:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for a ballpark figure: iirc the TI zoom-II was USD~2000 | 06:15 |
robbiethe1st | Especially when I can get a $300 Ainol semi-open tablet with high res screen etc. | 06:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I almost got me one, until I realized that the SD-card will protrude when inserted | 06:15 |
jpinx | tablets are not going to replace my eeepc anytime soon. I've tried several, own one and they all suck hairy balls | 06:16 |
DocScrutinizer05 | which is a real W*T*F | 06:16 |
*** Gh0sty has quit IRC | 06:16 | |

DocScrutinizer05 | eh? what's unclear about "will protrude"? | 06:17 |
robbiethe1st | On what device? | 06:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | insert a SD card, it will be half inside the case, half outside | 06:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | zoom-II | 06:17 |
robbiethe1st | Oh | 06:17 |
* jpinx has a Master A702 - it works ..... | 06:18 | |

robbiethe1st | I want a device with a decent screen, powerful, good Linux support and such, and a /huge/ battery or secondary-battery module in a convertable/slider form factor. | 06:19 |
robbiethe1st | Absolute best would be a 5-6" factor, slightly bigger than N900 | 06:19 |
jpinx | robbiethe1st: don't we all ? | 06:19 |
robbiethe1st | 7 or 10 would do OK though... or even a bigger 13-16" device | 06:20 |
robbiethe1st | *sigh* yeah | 06:20 |
*** Gh0sty has joined #maemo | 06:20 | |
robbiethe1st | It's like, even Microsoft realizes tablets need keyboards. why doesn't anyone else? | 06:20 |
jpinx | robbiethe1st: over here they sell tablet cases with usb kbds in -- very popular | 06:21 |
robbiethe1st | I've seen those | 06:21 |
robbiethe1st | But still, it's nothing like a slider | 06:21 |
jpinx | slider on a 7" tablet would be a bit unweildy ;) | 06:21 |
robbiethe1st | I dunno | 06:22 |
jpinx | I'm happy with the dimensions of the n900 - just make the screen go all the way to the edges | 06:22 |
robbiethe1st | Take a look at the new 10" slider(N950 style) for Win 8 | 06:22 |
robbiethe1st | I think it's Sony | 06:22 |
robbiethe1st | ...and give me 1024x600 at least | 06:22 |
* jpinx needs something that will go in his pocket | 06:23 | |
Macer | yeah me too | 06:23 |
jpinx | even the samsung note is too big | 06:23 |
Macer | seems like the era of the sliding qwerty(z) is over in favor of a cheaper vkb | 06:23 |
DocScrutinizer05 | they will learn | 06:23 |
Macer | not to mention companies seem to want things to be slimmer | 06:23 |
jpinx | Macer: I have a vkbd on my tablet and it is almost unsueable :( | 06:23 |
jpinx | unuseable -- even | 06:24 |
Macer | jpinx: on my tf101 i usually installed the thumb keyboard | 06:24 |
Macer | the standard one was just simply retarded for a 10" screen heh | 06:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | we had decent screensize with N810, when N900 came out we asked "ooh, why so small, we would have liked it to be like N810!" now look where every cellphone manuf is today | 06:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | same for kbd | 06:24 |
Macer | heh | 06:25 |
robbiethe1st | Surprisingly, at least for me, the N900 /works/ | 06:25 |
Macer | i didn't mind the n900 screen | 06:25 |
Macer | it was the same res anyways | 06:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | when N9 came out, we said "WTF?! we had good kbd on N900, why none on N9". Wanna bet what everybody will do in two years? ;-D | 06:25 |
robbiethe1st | It works better than the N950 for me | 06:25 |
Macer | lol | 06:25 |
Macer | by then tho nokia was in MS' pocket | 06:25 |
Macer | i wish they had released at least an n950 to the masses on their exit | 06:26 |

Macer | my lesson in never pre-ordering | 06:28 |
Macer | and a lesson well learned.. i think i took a $100 loss when i sold it to someone | 06:29 |
Macer | i mean to a dev it was probably kind of neat.. beagleboard with a built on touchscreen | 06:29 |
Macer | i'm often curious as if AI owned the patent on the detachable keyboard | 06:30 |

XATRIX | 1st, i have non-standart battery, 1700mAh, and it the handset doesn't work with it well | 10:48 |
XATRIX | It's charging ok, but it shows fullcharge for quite a long time | 10:49 |
XATRIX | then it shows 40% charge at onece | 10:49 |

DocScrutinizer05 | meh | 10:53 |
XATRIX | So, there's no way to retrain the bme for this batt ? | 10:54 |
XATRIX | I think it still count it as a 1300mAhz | 10:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | possible | 10:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I think bme does some kind of auto-calibration after a while | 10:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | nobody knows for sure what bme does | 10:55 |
XATRIX | Hm.. how can i check for current batt capabilities via sysfs ? | 10:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | capabilities? | 10:56 |

XATRIX | chargin rate,capacity,some vendor info | 10:58 |
kerio | there's no vendor info, really | 10:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | lshal|grep battery | 10:59 |
kerio | except for the resistor that gives the supposed full charge "design" | 10:59 |
kerio | wildly inaccurate and meaningless | 10:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | or not | 10:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 10:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | bogus | 10:59 |
kerio | `hal-device bme` | 10:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | XATRIX: you might want to use http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/patches_n_tools/calibrate-bq27k.sh | 11:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | start that and follow the instructions on screen (you need i2ctools installed for it) | 11:00 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: both bme and bme-replacement lock the related i2c bus, right? | 11:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no, bme-replacement looks at sysfs nodes of bq27200.ko | 11:01 |
DocScrutinizer05 | afaik | 11:01 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: bq27x00-battery is to be considered part of bme-replacement :) | 11:01 |
kerio | it's only loaded by it | 11:01 |
DocScrutinizer05 | the whole point of bme-replacement | 11:01 |
XATRIX | i2ctools are known as damageable for this device! | 11:02 |
*** loganbr has quit IRC | 11:02 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | don't mess with i2c* commands and you're safe | 11:02 |
kerio | XATRIX: well the problem is not te damage to i2ctools, the problem is the damage to the device itself | 11:02 |
kerio | *the | 11:02 |
XATRIX | yes, it's can be hardware-damaged via i2ctool | 11:02 |
XATRIX | maybe it's a better idea to make bme-replacement ? | 11:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no | 11:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I told you it's not mature yet | 11:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | what's your problem anyway | 11:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | bme is known to show guesstimates for battery charge, even with standard battery | 11:04 |
XATRIX | Yea | 11:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and except for "very low, soon will shut off" you can't tell any useful info from battery charge level anyway | 11:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | not because it's inprecise but because you don't know about your power consumption to come | 11:05 |
kerio | well maybe you don't :P | 11:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | device may shut down 30 min after battery reaches 50% (when watching movie or doing a phonecall) or it may stay up for another 5 days | 11:06 |
jpinx | fresh battery - many hours on idling then put wifi hotspot on and how much time is left ? | 11:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | those are the extreme points, all in between is even less predictable | 11:07 |
jpinx | kerio: everyone has different useage patterns that the software can not know | 11:07 |
kerio | i'm not talking about the software | 11:07 |
kerio | i'm talking about myself | 11:07 |
kerio | ~15mA when idling with wifi on | 11:08 |
jpinx | then you will know how ong your battery will last ;) | 11:08 |
kerio | indeed! | 11:08 |
kerio | luckily, that's kinda easy | 11:08 |
kerio | "at least until i recharge it, this night" | 11:09 |
*** LauRoman has joined #maemo | 11:09 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | XATRIX: seems that bnf stuff is doing proper readout of bq27200 chip, so using my calibrating script it should show best info available about battery. Similarly good info (or better yet) from http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/usr/local/sbin/ | 11:09 |
jpinx | that'll do ;) | 11:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/usr/local/sbin/bq27k-detail2 will need bash | 11:10 |

*** otypoks has quit IRC | 11:11 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/usr/local/sbin/bq27200.sh is probably most useful terse info, particularly when called with a period-in-seconds parameter | 11:11 |
DocScrutinizer05 | like `bw27200.sh 30` | 11:12 |
XATRIX | http://fpaste.org/O1nU/ | 11:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | bq* | 11:12 |
kerio | Average Current: 250 mA holy shit | 11:12 |
kerio | wtf are you doing with your phone | 11:13 |
XATRIX | I don't know | 11:13 |
XATRIX | it's simply chargin right now | 11:13 |
XATRIX | Oh, sorry i forgot | 11:13 |
XATRIX | My fridge powered from my phone cell | 11:14 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's normal for screen backlight on at full brightness | 11:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ooh, for calibrating script you should make sure your backlight is set to "always on" | 11:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and yes, you rbq27200 chip needs a calibration cycle | 11:16 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it seems pretty decalibrated | 11:16 |
XATRIX | Actually my screen is in suspend | 11:17 |
XATRIX | only orange LED is lit on | 11:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Last Measured Discharge: 834 mAh :-o | 11:17 |
XATRIX | It's completely fucked up | 11:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | then 250mA is way too much | 11:17 |
kerio | wait, orange led? | 11:18 |
kerio | are you charging it? | 11:18 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah | 11:18 |
kerio | ah yes you are | 11:18 |
DocScrutinizer05 | just thought same | 11:18 |
kerio | then it's kinda normal | 11:18 |
DocScrutinizer05 | still LMD 834 is either a crappy fake battery or a massively decalibrated bq27k chip | 11:19 |
XATRIX | Battery Gauge die Temperature: 36 C - on 36 degree it will explode ? | 11:19 |
XATRIX | It's KEVA BL-5J chinese cell | 11:20 |
*** qwazix has quit IRC | 11:20 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | set backlight to always on (either via simple brightness applet, or in xchat), run calibration script. will take ~ 6..8h to complete | 11:20 |
DocScrutinizer05 | the die of bq27200 chip has 36°C | 11:21 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's basically meaningless | 11:21 |
XATRIX | what does mean die ? death / | 11:22 |
XATRIX | ? | 11:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | some fools call that "battery temperature" which evidently it isn't | 11:22 |
XATRIX | :) | 11:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | die is the chip's silicon wafer | 11:22 |
kerio | die is also the singular of dice | 11:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | *the* chip | 11:22 |
XATRIX | dieelectric ? | 11:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_die | 11:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | k, bbl | 11:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | o/ | 11:25 |
XATRIX | Hm... i thought that the "black box" there the circuits are made from the plastic | 11:25 |
* DocScrutinizer05 guesses XATRIX' battery actually has 836mAh max capacity | 11:26 | |
XATRIX | DocScrutinizer05: I don't think so | 11:26 |
XATRIX | Let's recalibrate it | 11:26 |
XATRIX | Should i simply run # sh calibrate-bq27k.sh ? | 11:27 |
XATRIX | And, what is better to run it now, while charging ? Or to wait until it gets fully charged, and then run recalibrate ? | 11:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it will ask you to charge every minute until battery full anyway | 11:29 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so simply start it right away, after setting backlight to always on | 11:29 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and max brightness | 11:30 |
XATRIX | OK | 11:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ~bq-calibrate is http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/patches_n_tools/calibrate-bq27k.sh | 11:30 |
infobot | okay, DocScrutinizer05 | 11:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | will need root to run ;-) | 11:31 |
XATRIX | Ok, max brightness is on | 11:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it first charges battery completely (while nagging you every minute to do this), then switches off charging and auto-shutdown and thus discharges battery til calibration | 11:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | then stops discharge and charging kicks in again | 11:32 |
XATRIX | quite complicated | 11:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | quite automagic | 11:33 |
*** drussell has quit IRC | 11:33 | |
freemangordon | Pali: I think it is you who should answer to Tony Lindgren re secure PPA API patch | 11:33 |

DocScrutinizer05 | aah | 11:36 |
*** straind has joined #maemo | 11:36 | |
XATRIX | It asks me to use Fastcharger | 11:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | this has an API? | 11:36 |
XATRIX | I have only USB cable for now | 11:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | hmmm | 11:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | should work as well | 11:36 |
freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/2/28/116 | 11:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it just takes even longer then | 11:37 |
*** qwazix has joined #maemo | 11:37 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | maybe 2h more than with fastcharger | 11:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | anyway you shouldn't use device too much during calibration | 11:38 |
XATRIX | Ok,i will switch flight mode on | 11:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if you abort the script, you have to start all over again | 11:39 |

*** jrocha has joined #maemo | 11:41 | |
*** Martix has joined #maemo | 11:43 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | ooh, you have to make sure that bq27200.sh is in your current working directory | 11:43 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I.E. you need that script in your root's homedir and set it executable: `chmod +x ./bq27200.sh` | 11:44 |
XATRIX | Yes, i did it | 11:45 |
XATRIX | Already solved the issue | 11:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | or you comment out the line 17: ./bq27200.sh; in that script | 11:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | aah ok | 11:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if the script fails nevertheless on that line - no problem, just `start bme` and you're done | 11:47 |
*** croppa has quit IRC | 11:47 | |
*** Ex-Opesa has quit IRC | 11:48 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | starting bme will switch off backlight, you can re-enable it by two times engaging lockslider switch | 11:48 |
XATRIX | hm | 11:50 |
XATRIX | Can i simply restart the device ? | 11:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | why? what for? | 11:50 |
XATRIX | to reenable bme | 11:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | when? | 11:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sure | 11:50 |
XATRIX | if the script fails | 11:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | but typing `start bme` is simpler, and also only needed if script aborts prematurely due to an error | 11:51 |
*** croppa has joined #maemo | 11:51 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | btw as long as it charges and prints that line every minute, you can abort and resume the script and don't lose anything by doing so | 11:53 |

XATRIX | ? | 16:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so yeah, open a second shel, run bq27200.sh 15 in it | 16:17 |
XATRIX | ok | 16:17 |
*** chenca has joined #maemo | 16:18 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | I admit this calib script been a shoot from the hip | 16:19 |
DocScrutinizer05 | took 30min to write, or somesuch | 16:19 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I only wrote it for kerio, who then never used it ;-P | 16:20 |
XATRIX | crap, it stopped | 16:20 |
XATRIX | backlight is off | 16:20 |
XATRIX | but i can see no error in term | 16:20 |
DocScrutinizer05 | good, so it finished | 16:20 |
*** tzafrir has quit IRC | 16:20 | |
XATRIX | not usre, i see chargin ongoing | 16:20 |
DocScrutinizer05 | two times lockswitch will revive the backlight | 16:21 |
XATRIX | nope | 16:21 |
XATRIX | it doesnt | 16:21 |
DocScrutinizer05 | wait a moment | 16:21 |
XATRIX | ah | 16:21 |
XATRIX | ok | 16:21 |
XATRIX | lockswitch, i though i should 2 time slide it out/in | 16:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there's a sleep 30 and two sleep 10 in it iirc | 16:22 |
XATRIX | yes, it's still ongoing | 16:22 |
XATRIX | but the script finished | 16:22 |
XATRIX | maybe i have to start it again? | 16:23 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it should have printed your new values for bq27200 | 16:23 |
XATRIX | yep | 16:23 |
XATRIX | which one should i tell you ? | 16:23 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ./bq27200.sh; | 16:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | echo '************* RESUMING CHARGING *************'; | 16:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | echo "starting bme will cause backlight and indicator LED go dark, use lockswitch to revert to normal" | 16:24 |
XATRIX | yes i saw it | 16:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so calibration is basically finished | 16:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you should see a new value for "last measured discharge: xxx mAh" and "cycles since last learning cycle: nn" | 16:25 |
*** hardaker has joined #maemo | 16:25 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | cycles since last learning cycle shall be 0 | 16:25 |
XATRIX | Last Measured Discharge: 1213mAh | 16:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | look | 16:26 |
XATRIX | Cycles:0 Total Cycle Count : 156 | 16:26 |
DocScrutinizer05 | this might not be the correct value yet | 16:26 |
DocScrutinizer05 | (LMD) | 16:26 |
XATRIX | eeprom data: | 16:27 |
XATRIX | ILMD=1869 | 16:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it only adjusts by 1/6 ber learning cycle. Yours been *terribly* decalibrated, so it might need another calibration/learning to get LMD right | 16:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ILMD is irrelevant | 16:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Last Measured Discharge (LMD) is the interesting value | 16:28 |
XATRIX | Ahh | 16:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it jumped from 834 to 1213 iirc | 16:28 |
XATRIX | Ok, do i have to simply start the script again ? | 16:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, you can do that | 16:28 |
XATRIX | Or i have to discharge it and retrain calibration | 16:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | keep the bq27200.sh 15 loop running in other shell | 16:30 |

n900-dk_ | nm, I was looking for unzip and thought it was in extras-testing, but found it in extras-devel after it got enabled :) | 23:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | searching for technically savvy volunteers to test *new* rmo | 23:11 |
DocScrutinizer05 | with hashsums suppoed to be fixed | 23:11 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: i think jacekowski made me test it | 23:11 |
kerio | but i'm not sure | 23:11 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and *maybe* even autobuilder delivering new updates | 23:11 |
jacekowski | only extras-devel have new sums | 23:12 |
jacekowski | i'll have to rebuild everything else | 23:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | do we have hashsum errors on other repos than extras-devel? | 23:13 |
jacekowski | hard to tell | 23:13 |
jacekowski | i would have to regenerate all sums and then compare | 23:13 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I can't recall any reports | 23:13 |
jacekowski | i suppose other repos don't get many updates | 23:14 |
jacekowski | so it's less likely to go wrong | 23:14 |
DocScrutinizer05 | jacekowski: please give a short instruction how to use *new* rmo | 23:14 |
n900-dk_ | just had one in extras-testing | 23:14 |
n900-dk_ | Failed to fetch http://repository.maemo.org/extras-testing/pool/fremantle/free/u/unzip/unzip_6.0-maemo5_armel.deb Hash Sum mismatch | 23:14 |
jacekowski | n900-dk_: that's old rmo | 23:15 |
n900-dk_ | ohh, sry | 23:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, but valuable info | 23:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | thanks! | 23:15 |
jacekowski | i'll just rebuild everything | 23:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sure | 23:15 |
n900-dk_ | I will be happy to test the new rmo with the examples, I have been bothering you guys about | 23:20 |
jacekowski | well, use 213.128.137.22 instead of repository.maemo.org | 23:21 |
jacekowski | at the moment extras-devel should be clear, and everything should rehash within next couple hours | 23:22 |

xes | jacekowski: they should specify it in hosts.. right? | 23:24 |
jacekowski | well, that's an option | 23:24 |
jacekowski | or just modification to /etc/apt/sources.list | 23:25 |

XATRIX | What does mean CSOC: 50 % RSOC: 50 % ? | 23:49 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer05: ^ | 23:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | :-) | 23:51 |
DocScrutinizer05 | FWIW I suggest patching /etc/hosts | 23:51 |
jacekowski | not htat | 23:51 |
jacekowski | 22:49 < XATRIX> What does mean CSOC: 50 % RSOC: 50 % ? | 23:51 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that means that bq27200 thinks your cell is charged 50% | 23:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if you ever see CSOC and RSOC differ, let me know | 23:52 |
XATRIX | :) | 23:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | compensated State Of Charge - or sth | 23:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and Raw State Of Charge | 23:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | on extreme loads and/or temperatures CSOC might be lower by a few percent | 23:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | iirc | 23:54 |
XATRIX | I feel myself like a Gordon Freeman with sucha techy stuf :))) | 23:54 |
