| DocScrutinizer05 | it's genuine but a rip-off basically | 17:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you can get 2k of them for the same price | 17:54 |
| sixwheeledbeast | DocScrutinizer05: yes I would look at cpc.farnell or rs etc first. | 17:55 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | check ebay, honestly | 17:55 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | M1.4x5 is a good and precise search string and product spec | 17:55 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or whatever the particular screws you need | 17:56 |

| sixwheeledbeast | DocScrutinizer05: Also while your about the friend I need the screws for has had an issue with his screen protector. it has "welded" it's self to the screen (never heard this before). Any tips on removal without damaging anything? | 18:01 |
| *** goldkatze has quit IRC | 18:04 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | slooooowly, no force, slightly increased temperature | 18:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I'm afraid he tried to remove the better half of digitizer ;-) | 18:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | often a patch of scotchtape in one corner can help lift the protector | 18:12 |

| sixwheeledbeast | DocScrutinizer05: I have not seen it yet. But I too think it's the digitizer | 18:27 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I was thinking if it is the protector is stuck then slowly with maybe a thin guitar pick. Didn't think of temperature however having a warm spell here so maybe leave in the sun for a bit. | 18:30 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Are there any good quality digitizer replacement links? | 18:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | use scotchtape! | 18:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | quality of replacements up to particular evaluation | 18:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | most claim "ORIGINAL NOKIA" | 18:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | some prolly are, some may be fake of inferior quality | 18:32 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | e.g when they use whatever liquid they can find,instead of the silicon oil, for separator | 18:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | prolly a lot of phantom shifts done on tzhose parts | 18:33 |
| *** dhbiker_ has joined #maemo | 18:34 | |
| *** dhbiker_ has quit IRC | 18:34 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | maybe even true knock offs / copies | 18:35 |
| *** dhbiker has quit IRC | 18:35 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | real fakes (non-functional) rather improbable | 18:36 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Never had to replace one yet, however, my worry would be spending time fitting a poor quality part. | 18:42 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | quality check: connect resistance-meter to upper and lower plane, check for ope-circuit aka infinite-ohms. then make sure digitizer makes contact when you *slightly* touch it with a feather or the like | 19:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | there are only 4 pins on connector of the digitizer, find two of them who are usually not connected | 19:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | NoContact | 19:07 |
| *** flynx has quit IRC | 19:07 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | on slightest touch, the resistance has to change from infinite to some 100..1000Ohms | 19:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | easy | 19:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | more subtly quality issues not detected that way, but you will find out after installing only | 19:09 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: wait, the digitizer is supposed to be *that* sensitive? :o | 19:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yes | 19:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I can hardly wipe of dust flakes with finger, and I'm not an elephant | 19:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | it's almost impossible to touch a good new N900 digitizer with your finger without already making a touch event | 19:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | for sure a sheet of paper touching digitizer with the corner should be able to create a touch even when done right | 19:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | of course the separator oil might age and get more viscous over the years | 19:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | actually meanwhile my daily N900 needs some 20g orso on a pinpoint touch | 19:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | also depends a bit on whether you touch at edge or on center of digitizer | 19:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | edge is harder | 19:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | still woking with a standard sheet of paper corner | 19:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | though it's a tad hard and needs several tries now | 19:17 |
| *** louisdk has joined #maemo | 19:17 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | fold the paper once and for sure you get any touch you want, easily | 19:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | a standard BT USB dongle is a itsy bit too few weight to make it trigger | 19:19 |
| * DocScrutinizer05 will test witl coins of well known currency later on | 19:20 | |

| dos1 | DocScrutinizer05: was that lagometer option enough or you found something else? | 22:59 |
| Snafu777 | yet the debian-m5-v3e.img.ext2 filesize is the exact same | 22:59 |
| Humpelst1lzchen | Snafu777: is that an image? | 23:00 |
| bencoh | it wont shrink | 23:00 |
| Snafu777 | Will it expand then? | 23:00 |
| Snafu777 | Because that's why i wanted to remove stuff | 23:00 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Snafu777: moderator warning, watch speech | 23:00 |
| Snafu777 | so that i could add stuff without expanding too much | 23:00 |
| Snafu777 | K DocScrutinizer05 | 23:00 |
| Snafu777 | Sorry =/ Twas a joke =) | 23:00 |
| bencoh | ? | 23:01 |
| Snafu777 | And yer referring to my chicken thing right? | 23:01 |
| *** konelix__ has quit IRC | 23:01 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | dos1: lagometer did it | 23:01 |
| Snafu777 | bencoh: Why will it not shrink? And can it expand if i add to it? | 23:01 |
| Snafu777 | And if not, then where does the stuff I add to it go?? | 23:02 |
| Snafu777 | It's mind boggling | 23:02 |
| dos1 | Snafu777: it is a filesystem image | 23:02 |
| dos1 | Snafu777: it's like a disk partition - it doesn't shrink when you delete files on its filesystem | 23:02 |
| Snafu777 | Does it expand if u add? | 23:03 |
| Snafu777 | without tias involved | 23:03 |
| dos1 | does disk partition do? | 23:03 |
| *** florian has joined #maemo | 23:03 | |
| *** konelix_ has quit IRC | 23:04 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | when it's an image file, your only chance is to create a second smaller img file and mount it like first one and copy everything from first to new smaller img | 23:05 |
| *** LauRoman has quit IRC | 23:05 | |
| Snafu777 | Ok, but can it grow in size? | 23:06 |
| Snafu777 | That's my concern | 23:06 |
| Snafu777 | Because that was my point for removing stuff i didn't use | 23:06 |
| Snafu777 | And, with that thought in mind | 23:06 |
| Snafu777 | If i purge 500mb, and then I add back in 400mb worth of stuff, it shouldnt expand, correct? | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | only grows when you tell it to | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | usually | 23:07 |
| *** atarii has joined #maemo | 23:07 | |
| Snafu777 | Ok...., So it can expand, but not shrink | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | depends on the particular solution you use. Some auto-grow | 23:07 |
| dos1 | well, you can shrink img, but you have to resize it manually | 23:08 |
| Snafu777 | Well, I'm using the stock apt-get easydebianchroot thing | 23:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | some can grow when you use a tool to extend them | 23:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | some cannot change size at all after creation | 23:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | _none_ shrinks | 23:08 |
| Snafu777 | I guess what I'm getting at is this: I originally added stuff to it, but from ls -l the size did not change on the image, even after I unmounted it | 23:08 |
| Snafu777 | So where did the added stuff go? | 23:08 |
| dos1 | it's ext3 or 4 afaik | 23:08 |
| M4rtinK | I'll just add that if you use thin provisioning it can indeed shrink :) | 23:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | wow | 23:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ok, you da master :-) | 23:09 |
| M4rtinK | or to be more exact the thin provisioned LV returns the blocks back to the pool VG | 23:09 |
| M4rtinK | when you delete stuff | 23:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | never recently looked into that stuff, so nevermind what i toldya | 23:10 |
| Snafu777 | Hmm | 23:10 |
| Snafu777 | So does anyone here use the easy debian chroot? | 23:10 |
| M4rtinK | but yeah, not really applicable if you don't use LVM :) | 23:10 |
| dos1 | DocScrutinizer05: resize2fs should shrink fs image file just fine | 23:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | M4rtinK: that's LVM? | 23:10 |
| M4rtinK | Logical Volume Manager | 23:10 |
| dos1 | that's a ext image file mounted with loop | 23:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | :nod: | 23:10 |
| dos1 | like mount -o loop debian.ext3 /mnt/debian | 23:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ext img doesn't sound like LVM | 23:11 |
| M4rtinK | sits between physical partitions and filesystem | 23:11 |
| dos1 | yes, it's completely unrelated to LVM | 23:11 |
| *** wotan147 has joined #maemo | 23:11 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or rather, loopmount doesn't sound like LVM | 23:12 |
| dos1 | Snafu777: you can use resize2fs on *unmounted* image to adjust its size | 23:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | that's the "you tell it to" variant | 23:12 |
| Snafu777 | Alright, image resizing aside, I could honestly care less about shrinking the actual filesize of the image. What I am trying to figure out is if I purge 500mb from the image, can I add 500mb without expanding the size of the image | 23:12 |
| Snafu777 | Since the repos for maemo are so crazy, I figured i'd go with debian | 23:13 |
| M4rtinK | yeah, I'm just saying that there are some scenarios (not directly related to loop mount) where you get space "back" if you delete stuff on a filesystem | 23:13 |
| Snafu777 | The filesystem is "sane" at least | 23:13 |
| dos1 | Snafu777: well, if you purge 500mb from ext3 partition on your PC, can you add 500mb without expanding your harddrive? :P | 23:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sure, what gets deleted can get added as well | 23:13 |
| bencoh | which reminds me ... no one runs lvm on n900 ? | 23:13 |
| Snafu777 | Ok | 23:13 |
| Snafu777 | So then riddle me this | 23:13 |
| Snafu777 | Without purging anything | 23:14 |
| Snafu777 | I added to the image | 23:14 |
| Snafu777 | unmounted | 23:14 |
| M4rtinK | bencoh: don't know about anyone | 23:14 |
| Snafu777 | yet the size didnt grow | 23:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | *sigh* | 23:14 |
| Snafu777 | and NOTHING else on the entire n900 partitions changed in size | 23:14 |
| bencoh | I think kp has no lvm support | 23:14 |
| M4rtinK | bencoh: on the other hand the HP TouchPad uses LVM :) | 23:14 |
| dos1 | Snafu777: size is *constant*! | 23:14 |
| Snafu777 | So where the heck did the added files go? | 23:14 |
| M4rtinK | bencoh: as presumably other WebOS devices did | 23:14 |
| bencoh | M4rtinK: lvm is love :) | 23:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | your image is like a virtual disk | 23:14 |
| bencoh | Snafu777: it will not shrink, ever :) | 23:14 |
| M4rtinK | bencoh: indeed! :) | 23:14 |
| dos1 | Snafu777: if you remove 500mb from inside filesystem, the file with it does not shrink (unless you run resize2fs on it) | 23:14 |
| Snafu777 | So you are saying when I chroot into it, I should issue df to see how much I have on / | 23:14 |
| dos1 | yes | 23:15 |
| Snafu777 | So it's like a fixed little usb thumbdrive so to speak | 23:15 |
| dos1 | you don't even need chrooting for that, just mounting it will do | 23:15 |
| *** NIN101 has joined #maemo | 23:15 | |
| Snafu777 | True | 23:15 |
| bencoh | Snafu777: somehow | 23:15 |
| bencoh | well, kindof | 23:15 |
| Snafu777 | but the concept is to chroot so u have an OS within the n900 OS | 23:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | fine | 23:15 |
| Snafu777 | alright, i'm decompressing it right now to chroot into it | 23:16 |
| Snafu777 | I'll do a df and see what is available | 23:16 |
| Snafu777 | I think I understand now | 23:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | chroot, use df -h, see how much of your 42.911GB image space got used | 23:16 |
| Snafu777 | THANK you for the patience =) | 23:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | do a ls -l 42.911GB.image to notice it never chages size | 23:17 |
| Snafu777 | That's what boggled me DocScrutinizer05 =) But now after listen to ya'll it has clicked i do believe | 23:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | :-) | 23:17 |
| bencoh | chicken enlightnment | 23:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | lol | 23:18 |
| Snafu777 | The whole reasoning behind wanting to know is so that I can use the debian environment for things that just "dont" work in maemo | 23:18 |
| Snafu777 | Other people try to run different OS's on the n900 and whatnot | 23:18 |
| Snafu777 | screw all that | 23:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | easydeb FTW | 23:18 |
| Snafu777 | Yes =) | 23:18 |
| dos1 | beware that you will be limited by old kernel | 23:18 |
| Snafu777 | That's ok by me | 23:18 |
| Snafu777 | It's a starting pt | 23:18 |
| dos1 | glibc in newest debian won't work with maemo kernel | 23:19 |
| Snafu777 | Oh | 23:19 |
| Snafu777 | So my idea of doing ./configure && make to create a binary on the chroot | 23:19 |
| * DocScrutinizer05 idly ponders qemu on fremantle | 23:19 | |
| Snafu777 | wont port over to maemo? | 23:19 |
| Snafu777 | Because that was the plan | 23:19 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | with win7 inside ;-P | 23:19 |
| dos1 | so for easydebian you're limited to wheezy(?) | 23:19 |
| Snafu777 | squeeze as far as i can tell | 23:19 |
| dos1 | possibly | 23:19 |
| bencoh | DocScrutinizer05: *nope*nope* :– | 23:19 |
| Snafu777 | its got sid squeeze and lenny in the sources | 23:19 |
| Snafu777 | I killed off all non squeeze ones | 23:20 |
| dos1 | sid for sure won't work | 23:20 |
| *** sunny_s has quit IRC | 23:20 | |
| bencoh | dos1: until we get a brand new mainline kernel with phone functions :° | 23:20 |
| dos1 | yup | 23:21 |
| bencoh | what's missing btw ? | 23:21 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the phone functions? | 23:21 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | :-D | 23:21 |
| bencoh | right, but is it just about code merge or rewriting driver ? | 23:21 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | plus a number of other things, I heard cam doesn't work, audio also a construction site | 23:21 |
| bencoh | I thought isi driver was enough for phone functions | 23:22 |
| bencoh | (at least for kernel space) | 23:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | prolly it is | 23:22 |
| Snafu777 | So will my idea for chrooting into debian, doing whatever to create a binary, and copying the binary back to my maemo partition, it wont work? | 23:22 |
| dos1 | it's also about fremantle closed parts having lots of old-kernel specific cruft hardcoded | 23:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | unless you want audio in your phonecall | 23:22 |
| M4rtinK | oh, nice! http://www.outflux.net/blog/archives/2012/02/15/discard-hole-punching-and-trim/ | 23:22 |
| bencoh | DocScrutinizer05: haha | 23:22 |
| dos1 | so you have to workaround it with LD_PRELOAD stubs etc. | 23:22 |
| bencoh | what's missing for audio then ? | 23:22 |
| bencoh | dos1: eww | 23:22 |
| M4rtinK | looks like since kernel 3.2 the loopback backing file _should_ shrink if stuff is deleted from the loppback device | 23:23 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you need the old kernel API (/sys /proc /dev) for the blobs (dialer et al) to work | 23:23 |
| M4rtinK | as long as the FS supports trim | 23:23 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cool | 23:24 |

| Snafu777 | That sucks =) So much for "hacking" it together | 23:25 |
| bencoh | M4rtinK: even with non-sparse image files ? | 23:25 |
| dos1 | boot debian *instead* of maemo then :D | 23:25 |
| bencoh | dos1: haha | 23:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | a ddate might just work fine ;-) | 23:26 |
| Snafu777 | The whole lack of a phone is why i dont | 23:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cmd: Today is Sweetmorn, the 30th day of Confusion in the YOLD 3180 | 23:26 |
| dos1 | after spending some time on it you could get working phone functionality on plain debian | 23:26 |
| bencoh | yeah | 23:26 |
| dos1 | with FSO for instance | 23:26 |
| Snafu777 | But that knowledge is limited to those who blog about it | 23:26 |
| Snafu777 | Which is nill.... | 23:26 |
| bencoh | or ofono (have a look at nemo) | 23:26 |
| *** flynx has joined #maemo | 23:27 | |
| Snafu777 | I'd love to have my phone have 1 partition and 1 partition only | 23:27 |
| Snafu777 | THAT would be superb | 23:27 |
| bencoh | pita though | 23:27 |
| dos1 | but then you become maintainer of your own phone distro, which has both upsides and downsides :) | 23:27 |
| Snafu777 | None of this optimizing nonsense | 23:27 |

| bencoh | *dreaming*dreaming* | 23:28 |
| dos1 | bencoh: there was SHR working on N900 at some point of time | 23:28 |
| bencoh | phone included ? | 23:28 |
| dos1 | sadly, latest images didn't boot for me and I didn't have time to investigate why | 23:28 |
| bencoh | I think FSO missed this part | 23:28 |
| dos1 | yes, phone included | 23:28 |
| bencoh | woot | 23:29 |
| dos1 | just not so stable yet ;) | 23:29 |
| dos1 | there is ISI modem plugin in fsogsmd | 23:29 |
| bencoh | do you remember at which point in time ? | 23:29 |
| dos1 | oh, a few years ago? | 23:29 |
| M4rtinK | bencoh: not sure, probably should be sparse | 23:30 |
| dos1 | when there was still some development on SHR/FSO@N900 | 23:30 |
| M4rtinK | BTW, I would recommend everybody to see what nice features have been coming to LVM & device mapper recently :) | 23:30 |
| bencoh | I guess http://wiki.freesmartphone.org/index.php/Phonet_Implementation isnt up to date then | 23:30 |
| M4rtinK | really nice stuff :) | 23:31 |
| bencoh | M4rtinK: I cant get nicer than it is .... can it ? :) | 23:31 |
| M4rtinK | like LVM cache (bcache/hybrid drive alternative) or the upcoming compression/block order targets for DM | 23:31 |
