| raid__ | i've been trying to secure access to root, so i tried sudser and it gives me an error: "sudoers file: syntax error, line 25" "/etc/sudoers.d/everybody.sudoers changes break sudoers" | 02:04 |
| raid__ | it gives me that when installing kernel-power | 02:04 |
| raid__ | i think it's originating in dpkg | 02:04 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sudser is bad | 02:04 |
| raid__ | i used to use rootsh, but it doesn't ask for a password to gain root | 02:05 |
| kerio | +1 | 02:05 |
| kerio | just make your file in sudoers.d | 02:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sudser doesn't either | 02:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | see | 02:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ~jrtools | 02:05 |
| infobot | jrtools is probably http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools | 02:05 |
| *** darodi has joined #maemo | 02:05 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | on how to enable password | 02:05 |
| raid__ | i noticed...how do i secure root? | 02:05 |
| raid__ | oh thanks | 02:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yw | 02:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | NB it's still not safe | 02:06 |
| kerio | your jrtools are also bad, they break `sudo gainroot` semantics | 02:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but a lot better than without | 02:06 |
| kerio | namely, the fact that it doesn't ask for a password, and it doesn't work outside of rdmode | 02:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | eh? | 02:06 |
| kerio | in maemo fremantle, the above is true | 02:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sure when I make sudo gainroot ask for password, then it breaks the semantics of not asking for password! o.O | 02:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and the second half of your statement makes no sense at all | 02:07 |
| kerio | gainroot checks for rdmode, and only gives you a root shell if it's enabled | 02:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | orly? | 02:08 |
| kerio | yarly! | 02:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | BS | 02:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | gainroot also checks sudoers | 02:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | that's why sudo gainroot | 02:09 |
| kerio | no it doesn't | 02:09 |
| kerio | gainroot is a script | 02:09 |
| kerio | sudo checks sudoers | 02:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | meh, I got no time for that pointless BS | 02:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | let's discuss why you write your nick the wrong way | 02:10 |
| kerio | :o | 02:10 |
| kerio | what's the right way? | 02:10 |
| r00t^home | it looks like my second n900 broke... to me it seems like some heavy filesystem corruption... at first only modest kept crashing, apparantly beacuse it's database was corrupted... then random settings got reset, tracker was broken (media player said no files), the "three dots" bootscreen didn't appear (but it still booted), now it stopped booting completely... | 02:10 |
| kerio | "broke" | 02:11 |
| kerio | reflash it, and restore a backup | 02:11 |
| r00t^home | well, the first one also stopped booting but i can't reflash it because usb is broken | 02:11 |
| *** darodi has quit IRC | 02:11 | |
| *** Win7Mac has quit IRC | 02:11 | |
| r00t^home | and in this case, it could still be that the flash is physically broken... we'll see... | 02:11 |
| raid__ | DocScrutinizer05: you have to install CSSU to secure root? | 02:11 |
| kerio | do you have a way to boot from usd? | 02:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | raid__: no | 02:12 |
| *** NeutrinoPower has quit IRC | 02:12 | |
| r00t^home | fun stuff: i've been trying to get a working recovery boot recently (before it broke), but it seems that all installation instructions i found for that are outdated | 02:12 |
| raid__ | DocScrutinizer05: oh...i have to flash my phone? | 02:13 |
| *** niwakame|away has quit IRC | 02:13 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no | 02:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you install rootsh and follow that oneliner instruction on jrtools | 02:13 |
| *** darodi has joined #maemo | 02:14 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | # fix NOPASSWD for root / sudo gainroot | 02:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | around half way down the page | 02:15 |
| raid__ | DocScrutinizer05: we are talking about the same wiki right? http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools | 02:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sure | 02:15 |
| *** norayr has quit IRC | 02:15 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you install rootsh, open a terminal, type | 02:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | root | 02:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sed -e "s/Defaults env_reset/Defaults env_reset\nDefaults targetpw/;\ | 02:16 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | PASSWD: /usr/sbin/gainroot+" \ | 02:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | -i /etc/sudoers.d/01sudo | 02:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | that's it | 02:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you damn better set a root password before | 02:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | with | 02:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | passwd | 02:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | # fix NOPASSWD for root / sudo gainroot | 02:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | # this will allow your N900 to ask for ROOT password on "root" | 02:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | # and "sudo gainroot" as it's supposed to be | 02:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ... | 02:18 |
| *** niwakame|away has joined #maemo | 02:18 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or you use nano or whatever editor you prefer, and add the one line | 02:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Defaults targetpw | 02:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | manually, as well as the edit from | 02:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | user ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/gainroot | 02:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | to | 02:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | user ALL = PASSWD: /usr/sbin/gainroot | 02:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | in /etc/sudoers.d/01sudo | 02:21 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | if you don't add the >>Defaults targetpw<< line, then it will ask for *user's* password which makes no sense | 02:22 |

| r00t^home | raid__: the "procedure" being? "apt-get install git"? | 03:45 |

| raid__ | that's what i said... | 03:50 |
| raid__ | installing it was part of the procedure | 03:50 |
| r00t^home | "won't let" is a pretty useless statement in the context of software problems | 03:51 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | indeed it is the vodka I bought 3 days ago | 03:54 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | no, the proof, which is % * 2 | 03:54 |
| raid__ | it's the percent of satisfaction guarantee | 03:54 |

| robbiethe1st | wow | 04:10 |
| robbiethe1st | I looked at converting, but in order to do so I'd have had to drain my system, and then get new r134a etc. Like a $200 process. On the other hand, a $10 ebay hose and $.05 worth of commodity propane from a barbecue bottle... | 04:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, ammonia fridges. cool shit | 04:11 |
| robbiethe1st | Ammonia fridges are cool, yes | 04:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the hotter it is, the better they work | 04:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and can operate from candle | 04:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | absorber | 04:12 |
| robbiethe1st | The hotter the whole loop is, or the hotter the flame is? | 04:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | my dad told me the hotter the weather, the better those *huge* absorber fridges that cooled the morgue in hospital work | 04:13 |
| robbiethe1st | huh | 04:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and he's been an enginieer (surprise surprise) | 04:14 |

| ShadowJK | and if they'd put something crappier in it if I had the AC serviced | 04:18 |
| *** nox- has quit IRC | 04:20 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | 99? probably already one of the excempt FCKW | 04:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | FKW, fluoride hydrocarbon | 04:23 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I wonder what's the US TLA for FCKW | 04:24 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | F Cl C H | 04:24 |
| ShadowJK | do they refull with original or what | 04:24 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no, not anymore (except in Poland ;-P) | 04:25 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | FClCH are forbidden worldwide. Nobody except some rogue chinese produce it anymore | 04:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | not even in fire extinguishers you may use it anymore | 04:27 |

| r00t^home | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorofluorocarbon => CFC, or Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) | 04:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Chlorofluorocarbon /CFC/ | 04:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yeah | 04:31 |
| r00t^home | well, that's without the hydrogen, so HCFCs would be closer | 04:32 |
| robbiethe1st | wait, 99... probably R134A. | 04:32 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 04:32 |
| robbiethe1st | which you can get in the US, it's the 'favorite' refridgerant... probably because a big chemical company has patent control over it | 04:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | again yep | 04:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | while it's as nasty as any other hcfc | 04:33 |
| robbiethe1st | As soon as that patent is about to expire, R134A will be found to be the most nasty thing on the planet and banned | 04:34 |
| robbiethe1st | Just like R12 was | 04:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | :nod: | 04:34 |
| * robbiethe1st is cynical, I guess | 04:34 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no, just the truth | 04:35 |
| robbiethe1st | It's frigging sad and annoying | 04:35 |
| robbiethe1st | oh well | 04:35 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and unlike the old HCFCs I heard it's prducing HF (acid) when car burns | 04:35 |
| robbiethe1st | Oh, probably. | 04:36 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | which takes your face and runs, if you're still in the car | 04:36 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | nad kills your lung for good | 04:37 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and* | 04:37 |
| robbiethe1st | Instead of propane/butane , which burns cleanly, has a narrow flammability range, and is an excellent coolant | 04:37 |
| robbiethe1st | but is too cheap and isn't patentable | 04:37 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 04:37 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | a few car manufs changed to propane already, for the safety | 04:40 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I think mercedes/daimler did | 04:40 |
| robbiethe1st | Good for them | 04:41 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | coszs 50 bucks more | 04:41 |

| r00t^home | is that behaviour really caused by the battery being low? | 04:51 |
| r00t^home | i guess i'll leave it charging for a while and see if that makes the battery controller happy | 04:51 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | and refusal to flash due to low bat is based on voltage only, no impact from swapping | 04:53 |

| raid__ | where do you store your root bin files so as not to lose them? /usr/bin is the standard location, but you could lose them there | 04:55 |
| r00t^home | define "lose"? under what condition? re-flashing or what? | 04:56 |
| raid__ | well, that, and you could just forget you made them | 04:56 |
| raid__ | or what you called them | 04:57 |
| r00t^home | so you want a special directory for your custom binaries? | 04:57 |
| raid__ | i already do, but i'm not sure it's the best practice | 04:58 |
| raid__ | where do you put yours | 04:58 |
| r00t^home | usr/bin | 04:59 |
| r00t^home | usr/local/bin would be more appropriate, but iirc it didn't already exist, so probably isn't in $PATH either | 04:59 |

| *** LouisDK has quit IRC | 05:04 | |
| raid__ | the problem i have with /usr/local/bin, is some programs install themselves there, especially when compiled from source | 05:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and ~/bin for thwe totally exotic stuff | 05:05 |
| *** LouisDK has joined #maemo | 05:05 | |

| r00t^home | raid__: programs installing in usr/local when built from source - is the whole point of the thing! | 05:10 |
| raid__ | sort of. it's purpose has been changed since it first became an official path | 05:13 |
| r00t^home | usr/local = stuff not from distro... makes sense, no? | 05:14 |

| raid__ | robbiethe1st: good answer! | 05:16 |
| raid__ | unfortunately, they're not all worth publishing online | 05:16 |

| LouisDK | Hi. how would you consider using n810 as an internet tablet today? what do you think about the pda? | 05:43 |
| robbiethe1st | N900's far better | 05:50 |
| robbiethe1st | It's a nice device, if slow | 05:50 |
| robbiethe1st | N810 and older just aren't up to snuff | 05:50 |
| GI_Jack | I have a hard time using the n900 as an internet tablet | 05:50 |
| robbiethe1st | screen size? | 05:51 |
| GI_Jack | no | 05:51 |
| GI_Jack | lack of CPU oomph | 05:51 |
| GI_Jack | flash 9.1 no gnash | 05:51 |
| robbiethe1st | N810 is far slower | 05:51 |
| GI_Jack | won't run modern version of fennec | 05:51 |
| robbiethe1st | I'd go with a Nexus 7, and bluetooth keyboard. | 05:51 |
| GI_Jack | there is a flash 10.1 port but its unsuably slow | 05:51 |
| GI_Jack | I'm getting the new Jolla mobile phone when it comes out if I have to kill someone | 05:52 |
| robbiethe1st | They've got these cool keyboards which have a angle slot so you can have it open like a laptop, or fold it shut clamshell style | 05:52 |
| GI_Jack | the n900 is showing its age, its UI is sluggish, apps take too long to load | 05:52 |
| GI_Jack | its clumbsy | 05:52 |
| GI_Jack | the accelerometer plain old sucks | 05:52 |
| robbiethe1st | Use CSSU, OC it to 1ghz... | 05:53 |
| robbiethe1st | some tweaks you can do to seriously improve it | 05:53 |
| GI_Jack | I do use the CSSU | 05:53 |
| GI_Jack | my n900 is my daily phone, I don't overclock because I need it to hang on and probably can't easily replace it | 05:53 |
| GI_Jack | I've brought it back from the dead 3 times already | 05:53 |
| GI_Jack | with the infamous "all telephony connections are disabled error" | 05:54 |
| GI_Jack | with a mix of stainless steel springs cut carefuly to specific heights, super glue and liquid rubber | 05:54 |
| robbiethe1st | Ebay/ | 05:54 |
| robbiethe1st | You can buy em cheap | 05:54 |
| GI_Jack | the phone gets hot enough as is, I don't really how much more juice your going to squeeze by OC | 05:55 |
| GI_Jack | except reduce the service life, I have no idea what kind of thermal profile the case and cooling is rated for | 05:55 |
| GI_Jack | even if that CPU has been clocked as high as 1.1 GHz in other solutions | 05:56 |
| robbiethe1st | I've clocked mine to 950mhz, and it'll not get too hot even when maxed out for over an hour | 05:57 |
| robbiethe1st | at 1ghz, mine starts feeling way too hot if maxed out | 05:57 |
| robbiethe1st | I've run mine for over a year now at 125/900mhz, hasn't fried yet. This is my second device, though - first has USB fall out and I couldn't fix it | 05:58 |
| GI_Jack | and every CPU is diffrent because of flaws in the silicone, all we know is that they all passed QA at 600mhz | 05:58 |
| GI_Jack | others in the batch passed higher, and we know the design is capable | 05:58 |
| robbiethe1st | that one ran for over a ear OC'd at the same. voltages adjusted to make it stable on both | 05:58 |
| GI_Jack | but we also know that a 600MHz CPU could have easily failed 800MHz, been clocked down, passed QA and shipped with a 600mhz label | 05:59 |
| GI_Jack | this is routinely done industry | 05:59 |
| robbiethe1st | Yes, but typically, it's failed 800mhz at some voltage | 05:59 |
| robbiethe1st | give it a little more juice and it'll easily pass it | 05:59 |
| GI_Jack | more juice is more heat | 05:59 |
| GI_Jack | what margin of saftey does the n900 have, I'm not chancing it, cause it needs to be a cell phone first | 06:00 |
| robbiethe1st | And less life, yes. | 06:00 |
| Luke-Jr | NITs are pretty much obsolete; sadly, there's nothing better than N900 :/ | 06:00 |
| GI_Jack | robbiethe1st, have you gotten flash 10.1 to work | 06:00 |
| *** dockane has joined #maemo | 06:00 | |
| robbiethe1st | If it's /hot/ to the touch, you might want to back off | 06:00 |

| GI_Jack | Luke-Jr, no, I want an n900 with modern specs | 06:01 |
| robbiethe1st | GI_Jack, I use the stock flash with a hack that makes it look like a later version | 06:01 |
| Luke-Jr | GI_Jack: N900 is not a phone, and will disappoint you if you want a phone | 06:01 |
| robbiethe1st | works smoothly and plays youtube at minimum quality | 06:01 |
| Luke-Jr | I am not aware of a single person who wanted a phone, bought N900, and liked it. | 06:01 |
| *** lxp has quit IRC | 06:01 | |
| GI_Jack | Luke-Jr, actually no, other than its weight, and thickness its actually a pretty good phone | 06:01 |
| Luke-Jr | … | 06:02 |
| GI_Jack | the voice quality is great, and text messaging is slick | 06:02 |
| GI_Jack | frals did a good enough job with mms | 06:02 |
| Luke-Jr | Ok, I guess you're the single person exception, if you're actually using it as a phone :/ | 06:02 |
| GI_Jack | yes, actually using it as a phone, and it makes a passing grade mp3 player | 06:03 |

| vi__ | I am thinking of switching back to Symbian. Please convince me otherwise. | 12:13 |
| joga | why? | 12:14 |
| vi__ | Because as a phone, the n900 sucks a mile long dick. | 12:15 |
| vi__ | I am so sick of missing phone calls. | 12:15 |
| vi__ | Because the caller screen does not see fit to even appear. | 12:15 |
| Luke-Jr | of course. N900 isn't a phone. | 12:16 |
| Luke-Jr | although I've never missed a call ringing on it unless I was out of range | 12:16 |
| joga | I've had only minor problems using it as a phone, the most prominent one being hildon-home etc getting 'stuck' so that every time you unlock the screen it takes a good few seconds to stop hogging cpu and you can do something, killing it every now and then helps but it's irritating if it happens when a call comes in, the ringtone will play but there's nothing you can do until it's ready | 12:17 |
| joga | and once it happened when I was expecting UPS to deliver a package, I couldn't answer the damn call (from unknown number, of course) so delivery was delayed by a week | 12:18 |
| divVerent | for me the n900 works ok as phone | 12:24 |
| divVerent | only reason I ever missed calls was vibration not strong enough | 12:24 |
| *** flo_lap has joined #maemo | 12:26 | |
| vi__ | That is a good example. On many occasions I have not even had a notification of an incoming call. Just a yellow ballon telling me I missed a call. FFS WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT. | 12:26 |
| * jooles was of the opinion that whatever issues maemo has, Symbian 6 was worse :/ | 12:28 | |
| vi__ | I never missed a telephone call on symbian. | 12:30 |
| joga | maybe the caller ended the call before n900 had managed to start playing ringtone | 12:34 |
| joga | :) | 12:34 |
| *** futpib has quit IRC | 12:35 | |
| *** sq-one has quit IRC | 12:35 | |
| joga | but anyway I think for telephone use an old and durable nokia works just great, personally I use the n900 as a mobile terminal and calls/sms constitute just a tiny percentage of my use so it has worked fine in that respect | 12:35 |
| jooles | Bring back the 3310, eh? :) | 12:36 |
| *** kolp has joined #maemo | 12:37 | |
| joga | I actually dumpster dived an E70 from work, I could get a new smartphone if I just asked but for work I need just reliable calls and stuff so it works great and also has a qwerty so in case n900 battery runs out or something I can use it for ssh in a pinch | 12:37 |
| joga | (after getting used to n900 keyboard the e70 feels a bit spongy and weird, also some symbols are more tedious to type) | 12:38 |
| joga | heh, actually the bag I dived had about 35 or so phones of which 20+ worked after just replacing battery, there were also a few 3310s :) | 12:39 |
| joga | all the old phones that hadn't been physically mangled worked, there were a few newer ones like e63 and some other slider-qwerty model and a similar one without the keyboard, they all turned on but didn't display anything on screen | 12:41 |
| *** Martix has joined #maemo | 12:42 | |
| joga | was a shame because the e63 was in mint condition otherwise | 12:42 |
| jooles | nice | 12:42 |
| jooles | Have you tried re-flashing it? | 12:42 |
| joga | nah, I suspect it's a problem with the display and haven't bothered to look, I don't really need the phone myself :) | 12:43 |
| joga | there were also some working spare batteries so I emptied a few of the basic phones that were working and gave them to people who had use for one | 12:44 |
| joga | would be nice to get it working though, it's a bit more attractive than the 10 year old ones | 12:44 |
| jooles | What are the insides like? Any obvious damage/activated water indicators? | 12:45 |
| joga | I haven't opened it since it seemed like I would probably cause cosmetic damage doing so, from outside it seems perfectly fine | 12:46 |
| *** valerius2k is now known as valeriusN | 12:47 | |
| jooles | That's what makes me wonder if it's water damage though. The indicators are usually in the battery compartment and/or on the battery | 12:48 |

| joga | well I checked inside it and it seems really clean, no signs of damage in battery connectors or battery | 12:57 |
| joga | maybe I'll pop the hood | 12:58 |
| jooles | Did you find the water indicator? | 13:01 |
| joga | the what? | 13:04 |
| joga | what does it look like? :) | 13:04 |
| jooles | Should be a little white sticker on or near the battery | 13:05 |
| jooles | If it's white, that's good. If there's been water in there it will have gone red | 13:06 |
| *** XDS2010 has joined #maemo | 13:07 | |
| joga | hmm...there's just the biggish sticker with IMEI etc and the battery itself has a hologram, I don't find any discolored regions at least | 13:07 |
| joga | not sure if the battery is original | 13:07 |
| jooles | It would be a little white square or circle. | 13:08 |
| joga | unless it's under the info sticker, I can't find it | 13:08 |
| joga | no red visible anywhere though | 13:09 |
| jooles | Eh, it may have been on the original battery. It's just always the first thing I check with a phone whose history I don't know | 13:17 |
| joga | I opened it up now, but haven't noticed anything suspicious yet | 13:23 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | hmm, I never had problems with answering phonecalls on N900, except of accidentally hitting reject button once, when friggin rotation bounced back and forth | 13:45 |
| Apic | ^.^ | 13:46 |
| divVerent | DocScrutinizer05: oh, I do remember another phone call issue with the N900 | 13:47 |
| divVerent | the phone appo has weird rotation | 13:47 |
| divVerent | and sometimes the meaning of the volume buttons reverses when I am "holding it wrong" | 13:47 |
| divVerent | as it sometimes toggles orientation during the call, and this reverses the volume buttons | 13:47 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I get massive problems though with inbound SIP calls since I usually am (loccked) on 2G and that, while still establishing call, yields unbearable stutter and delay and dropouts | 13:48 |
| vi__ | I have it locked to landscape. It fails to even display the screen. | 13:48 |
| joga | I put the phone back together, it just seems to start (backlights turn on, a single vibration occurs) then after waiting a while the backlight turns off briefly, then back on, I assume it's just booting but can't see anything | 13:48 |
| vi__ | Do not even get me started on SIP. | 13:48 |
| vi__ | For a SIP device, the n900 is a colossial piece of shit. | 13:48 |
| Apic | True. | 13:48 |
| vi__ | SIP is nicely integrated but the audio is so choppy it is basically worthless. | 13:49 |
| joga | hmm, actually if I wait for longer it seems the backlight turns on every now and then so not sure if it finished booting properly.. | 13:49 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | meh, I always had dialer app locked to portrait | 13:49 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | usually works just fine | 13:49 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | SIP works excellent when I'm at home on my WLAN | 13:50 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you just have to wait 2s after establishing call, until audio streams properly set up | 13:50 |
| vi__ | Then you are the ONLY reported case I have EVER read of SIP working. | 13:50 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hey, I even did SIP phonecalls with N810 from Taipei via my sipgate.de account (and RTP<->POTS gateway) to other german landline and mobile numbers. Worked great, as long as the intercontinental sea cables were not broken or congested (a frequently encountered problem in Taiwan) | 13:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I at times have 5 SIP clients logged in here to same account: N810, 2*N900, N950, N9 (and sometimes even twinklephone softphone on PC). And all of them just work, once I allocated a dedicated SIP port do each of them and pinholed that port the router's NAT | 13:58 |
| *** valerius has joined #maemo | 14:01 | |
| *** futpib_ has joined #maemo | 14:02 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | many router NATs have a ALG that's more often than not broken and not really working. You should check if your router has an option to disable SIP-ALG (sometimes attributed as VoIP support). draytek-Vigor for example (old ones) neeted telnet to do that: sth like "set system alg off" | 14:02 |
| *** futpib has quit IRC | 14:02 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | needed* | 14:03 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | then make sure your SIP provider supports auto-STUN, or you force STUN to enabled and keepalive to REGISTER,60 | 14:05 |
| vi__ | I have auto stun on. It is still choppy and completely un-useable. | 14:06 |
| vi__ | Don't even get me started on how bad skype is. | 14:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | host -t SRV _stun._udp.sipgate.de | 14:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | if your SIP provider is lacking such SRV DNS record, auto-STUN will fail | 14:09 |
| *** jooles_ has joined #maemo | 14:11 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | if your router has symmetric NAT and doesn't allow local loopback (client in LAN talking to itself on the router's public IP) then STUNlib fails to detect the type of NAT | 14:12 |
| *** jooles__ has joined #maemo | 14:13 | |
| *** jooles has quit IRC | 14:13 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but all that is rather irrelevant for RTP quality | 14:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | one thing you could try that also helps for RTP sometimes is to set your SIP client device as exposed host, sometimes also (incorrectly) called DMZ | 14:15 |
| Macer | vi__: really? i don't have much of a problem with skype heh | 14:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | means *every* inbound connection gets directly forwarded to the exposed device | 14:16 |
| *** jooles_ has quit IRC | 14:16 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | be aware that this does what name implies: it exposes your N900 to the internet, with all the pings and ssh bruteforce pw cracking and whatnot | 14:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so you better make sure you don't have too sloppy config of your services | 14:18 |
| Macer | is there even any real active telepathy skype dev? | 14:18 |

| *** keithzg has quit IRC | 14:21 | |
| vi__ | Mrs vi__ tried to skype her mother with the n900. The n900 was worthless. You could barely hear the other person there was soo much choppiness. So she switched to her android tablet. Perfect call. | 14:22 |
| Macer | but i can honestly say it hasn't let me down heh... seems to work well as far as i know | 14:22 |
| Macer | yeah | 14:22 |
| Macer | i'm sure beceause both the n900 and telepathy are old :) | 14:22 |
| Macer | that's usually what happens on abandonware heh | 14:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | vi__: I suspect your WLAN AP being POS | 14:22 |
| Macer | DocScrutinizer05: i don't. i had teh same problems skyping on my n900 and that was like 2 years ago | 14:23 |
| vi__ | Really? WNR3500L running dd-wrt. | 14:23 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | either your local router and connection (WLAN) stuff sucks, or your IP does nasty stuf with QoS traffic shaping/priorization | 14:25 |
| Macer | vi__: skype sells the mtx based phones which are similar to vonage phones.. which are usually work with older GE cordless phones | 14:25 |
| Macer | those are the best ones to use if you're just using skype for voice calls | 14:25 |
| Macer | DocScrutinizer05: why can't it be that skype changed the method in which it initiates and xfers the data and maybe the telepathy plugin for the n900 is just ancient and undeveloped? | 14:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | because others have no problems | 14:27 |
| Macer | plus if his wife used a tablet with a perfect call which most likely uses wifi...? | 14:27 |
| Macer | how would that be the AP? | 14:27 |
| *** fastlane` has joined #maemo | 14:27 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | AP not supporting the PSM that N900 uses | 14:27 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or rather: not *well* supporting | 14:28 |
| Macer | the easy solution to test that would be to test it over wireless | 14:28 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | there is about half a dozen of PSM modes and sub-types in use | 14:28 |

| ShadowJK | N810 GPU is kinda more or less "very hard" to bend into usable state for fremantle type opengl es | 16:35 |
| Jooles | Hardware limitation or lack of good drivers? | 16:37 |
| ShadowJK | It starts with the original issue that N810 SoC isn't capable of 800x480 output :) | 16:37 |
| Jooles | That... seems like a poor decision with an 800x480 screen | 16:37 |
| vi__ | rofl, no shit. | 16:38 |
| warfare | DocScrutinizer05: :) | 16:39 |
| ShadowJK | It was more or less all top of the line stuff when designed :) | 16:39 |
| * Jooles is surrounded on all sides by annoying hardware :P | 16:40 | |
| ShadowJK | and cpu overclocked to 400 MHz :) | 16:40 |
| ShadowJK | in stock config | 16:40 |
| ShadowJK | N800 came with the same SoC/cpu running at 333 MHz, but the kernel didn't become stable with overclock to 400 until after N810 came out | 16:41 |
| ShadowJK | (and software update boosted N800 to 400 too) | 16:42 |
| *** thomasjfox has quit IRC | 16:43 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | N810 also had a SSU OC | 16:44 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | initially ran at 333 or sth | 16:44 |
| Jooles | The thing is, it's still a nice tablet. Just feels a bit... held back | 16:46 |

| jooles | N900s might be cheap at the moment, but they're still too much money for me anytime soon. Will have to continue trying to breath new life into the N810 | 17:50 |
| ShadowJK | a big ram in microsd formfactor would do wonders | 17:52 |
| jooles | I have an 8GB Micro SD in the slot | 17:53 |
| *** _rd has quit IRC | 17:53 | |
| jooles | Might have to get some tiny torx keys to take a look inside at some point | 17:54 |
| ShadowJK | I do mean RAM, not flash :) | 18:03 |
| ShadowJK | if such a device would exist | 18:03 |
| jooles | my bad. And I doubt it. Though I guess it's not impossible | 18:03 |
| ShadowJK | I find many modern websites consume all the RAM on the N800/N810 all on their own | 18:04 |
| ShadowJK | swap on a microsd-ram should help somewhat :) | 18:04 |
| ShadowJK | On that note, A-data super highspeed microsdhc (or was it ultafast) did wonders for my N800 when I put swap on that card | 18:06 |
| ShadowJK | (the card was advertised as having "high" IOPS) | 18:06 |

| raid__ | n900 tar doesn't work for bz2? | 19:38 |
| raid__ | the -j option isn't supported | 19:38 |
| raid__ | apt-get install tar wants to remove 300+ other programs | 19:39 |
| r00t^home | is the author or 'multiboot' around so i can punch him in the face for his useless error messages? | 19:39 |
| thedead1440 | raid__: that's probably because its part of busybox or binutils which are dependencies of the mp-fremantle package hence leading to other packages being removed too | 19:41 |
| raid__ | i'm sure | 19:42 |
| thedead1440 | you may want to do an apt-get install -d tar; extract the tar file and replace it directly however afaik the system tar does work with bz2 | 19:43 |
| thedead1440 | are you using CSSU? | 19:43 |
| raid__ | no | 19:43 |
| thedead1440 | oh then i'm not too sure; stock firmware probably may have that issue. | 19:44 |
| r00t^home | <raid__> the -j option isn't supported | 19:44 |
| raid__ | tar: invalid option -- j | 19:44 |
| raid__ | BusyBox v1.10.2 | 19:44 |
| r00t^home | you can always bzcat | tar x | 19:44 |
| r00t^home | no need for tar to support it directly | 19:44 |
| *** NIN101 has joined #maemo | 19:45 | |
| r00t^home | all tar does if 'j' ('z') is specified, is fork off bzip2 -c/-d (or gzip) and pipe the data through it | 19:46 |
