DocScrutinizer05mtnman: restoring a BM backup is prolly faster than reinstalling CSSU01:30
mtnmanwhat is bm backup?  it doesn't sound so good :D01:31
DocScrutinizer05~bm01:31
infoboti guess backupmenu is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=6397501:31
mtnmanwell i already did restore my backup menu... but the cssu source didn't show up in application mgr01:32
mtnmananyhow, cssu is now installing... all is well.01:32
Sicelolooks like N900 is thicker than N810 .. wondering why01:36
*** Oksanaa has joined #maemo01:36
DocScrutinizer05umm, a number of reasons, mostly prolly the main camera module01:37
Siceloah, that one makes sense :)01:37
Sicelobecause cellmo shouldn't really add thickness in this particular case at least01:38
Siceloi find that my interest in Nokia N810 is growing. pity i don't see any in local markets01:39

*** obsed has joined #maemo07:34
OksanaaDon't know. But anybody would make /home full, wil stellarium's seven star catalogues, several email accounts, and thumbnails from tens of thousands of photographs07:35
OksanaaAnd moving it to MyDocs is not helping when MyDocs is being fsck-ed for the first five minutes after start-up07:36
stryngsHmm, DocScrutinizer05: DO NOT install speedpatch, batterypatch, or auto-disconnect _ever_!! All three do not uninstall and do not work. AdBlock will slow down browser to a grinding halt. If you're concerned about your privacy, do not insert SIM before you read about cherry below!07:37
stryngsspeedpatch doesnt do anything?07:37
OksanaaI think I used neither of te three, and AdBlock is not something to be installed even on mighty desktop. And cherry existed too long ago to worry about it anymore?07:40
stryngsi have speedpatch installed07:41
stryngskind of curious somewhat now, but shouldnt be hard to truly purge07:42
KotCzarnystryngs, use privoxy for adblocking07:44
KotCzarnydoc: battery-eye is nice in a sense that it doesnt drain battery (only triggers on events like charger connect/disconnect, and screen unblank07:44
KotCzarnyetc07:44
stryngsKotCzarny: I dont browse on the n90007:45
stryngsKotCzarny: ever07:45
KotCzarnyi do, occasionally07:45

stryngsHere is a better thing, why the fuck doesnt the community own maemo repo yet?07:46
stryngsi.e.  If it sucks, purge it07:46
KotCzarnystryngs, extras is community repo07:46
Oksanaademote it to devel07:46
stryngsyeah, but i'm saying as a whole07:47
stryngsmaemo, everything07:47
stryngsWhy doesnt the community host it07:47
KotCzarnyafaik its cheaper/faster that way07:47
stryngs?07:47
* stryngs debates on making a maemo acct...07:52
svetlanasorry. who hosts it right now?07:52
OksanaaWould be great :-) Maemo account allows to upload packages to repositories, vote in elections, and such07:53
stryngsWow07:57
stryngsSo like the garage page is vuln as hell07:57
* stryngs knows it would be easy to pwn any user on it, so thats cool and all07:57
* stryngs is going to write a thread in a couple days07:58
stryngsHopefully it will rally the troops07:58
KotCzarny:)07:58

KotCzarnynetname:        IPHH-HILDON-SERVER-1 #44265908:01
KotCzarnydescr:          Hildon Foundation08:01
KotCzarnyhttps://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo.org_team08:03
svetlanastryngs: normally there is one 'official' repo which packages get uploaded to. any volunteer then can mirror it. i think it is hosted by volunteers now (with a funny 'foundation' name on it), not by nokia or jolla or microsoft.08:03
svetlana'hildon foundation' is just a term to group stuff under the hood for legal purposes such as owning a trademark08:04
svetlanasomeone correct me if I'm wrong - I'm not on the top of the stuff08:04
OksanaaWell, ask techstaff . I do not know much. It's physically hosted in Germany?08:04
KotCzarnylooks like08:05
stryngssvetlana: Yeah, but08:05
KotCzarnystryngs, contact the webmaster in the link i've posted08:05
OksanaaMore or less correct. MCeV already, though, instead of HiFo08:05
stryngsSadly...  This community, is "fragmented"08:05
stryngsThere should be "one" image08:05
KotCzarnyi dont know who is responsible for garage though08:05
stryngsand branches from there08:06
stryngsIf CSSU is so good, then it should be standard and not an option08:06
Oksanaamerlin, maybe?08:06
stryngsI love maemo, I love my n900, but I hate some things about it...08:06
stryngsI would love to see this community pull together08:06
KotCzarnythere is no such thing as 'community' when there is work to be done08:07
OksanaaProblem is, you cannot pack CSSU as flashable image, because of closed-binaries legal problems?08:07
KotCzarnyone has to address/find specific people08:07
svetlanaI think it is a consequence of nokia doing "official" stuff and volunteers doing "cssu". not sure whether it should remain separate. it is probably a little bit of breakage in what cssu is (?)08:08
stryngsYou can "do" anything u want to do08:08
svetlanayes, what Oksanaa said08:08
stryngsi.e.08:08
stryngsLinut mint08:08
stryngsKali linux08:08

svetlanathose do not have legal problems like what Oksanaa mentioned08:08
KotCzarnyim still using stock 1.3.1 and it works08:08
KotCzarnywith installed packages like kernel-power etc08:09
OksanaaNice... I use CSSU-Testing, but am wary of touching anything-power08:10
stryngsRight, but what I'm getting at08:10
stryngsI envision this:08:11
KotCzarnything is, as long we are stuck on 2.6.28 and old glibc, there is little chance of upgrades08:11
stryngsn900-users.com (something like that)08:11
KotCzarnyoksana, do uname -a08:11
stryngsONE website08:11
stryngsONE set of directions08:11
KotCzarnyyou are probably using kernel-power5308:11
stryngsBRANCH ... from there08:11
KotCzarnystryngs, n900-users == maemo.org08:11
stryngsKotCzarny: Do u know someone from maemo.org?08:11
KotCzarnyif you branch, you would just create another08:11
stryngsKotCzarny: Do they hang out in this chan?08:11

stryngsDo you know how much I would LOVE to contribute my .debs to the community?08:13
stryngsI have 106 of them as of tonight08:13
stryngsHowever08:13
KotCzarnydrat, where is infobot when one needs it08:13
stryngsI don't believe in that stupid optify bullshit08:13
KotCzarnystryngs, extras-devel08:13
stryngsKotCzarny: My debs would fill yer / in a heartbeat08:13
KotCzarnyand i dont use optify, just move things to /opt manually08:13
stryngsI do specific chroot bind mounts to avoid nonsense08:13
stryngsYou shouldnt have to08:13
stryngsthats not FHS08:13
stryngsAnd thus, why we are fragmented and alone08:13
KotCzarnysure, if your / is big08:14
stryngsIt's 256mb, just like yers08:14
KotCzarnyotherwise you have to play tricks08:14
stryngsKotCzarny: No u dont!08:14
KotCzarnybind mounts are tricks08:14
stryngsKotCzarny: Well, it's late, and my wife wants some loving, so I must leave.  U be on tomorrow?08:14
KotCzarnysure08:14
KotCzarnyi'm on all the time08:14
stryngsKotCzarny: I would love to pick your brain, you seem like u give a damn08:14
stryngsKotCzarny: If you + others can get "truly" involved, for a 3 week period08:14
stryngsKotCzarny: Imagine what we the community, could accomplish...08:15
stryngsKotCzarny: Wouldnt it be cool to dpkg -i ANY deb?08:15
stryngsnot worry about optifying nonsense08:15
stryngsetc..08:15
KotCzarnyi dont worry about optifying, for non-critical packages --prefix=/opt works well08:15
stryngsWe just all have to center on ONE main tree, and branch out from there08:15
stryngsKotCzarny: Yes, but you cannot grab a kali armel deb and dpkg -i it without "tricks" as u say08:16
stryngsThose "tricks" they should be done in the beginning, not for every deb08:16
KotCzarnysure, but you still can recompile it without much hassle, which is recommended too anyway08:16
stryngsCan u do it on the box itself?08:16
stryngsOr must u scratchbvox08:16
stryngsIf u cant do it on the box, its stupid!08:16
stryngsscratchbox should be a perk, not a must08:16
KotCzarnyyou can do it on the box08:16
OksanaaSure, you can do it on device. I am trying to...08:17
stryngsKotCzarny: I'll challenge u on that tonight08:17
KotCzarnybut i like sb because its faster08:17
stryngsKotCzarny: I'll challenge u on that tomorrow08:17
stryngsKotCzarny: I'm going to throw a .deb at u to properly "debian style" recompile, on your n900 tomorrow08:17
KotCzarny6x3.3ghz > 1x600mhz08:17
stryngsKotCzarny: I'm not trying to "challenge" you either, I want to work "with you"08:17
stryngsKotCzarny: Please don't take me the wrong way08:17
KotCzarnyno worries08:17
stryngsKotCzarny: I'm just stiff in my beliefs08:17
OksanaaXchat has some weird parts where it specifically wants scratchbox, not sure how to make it free of sb...08:17
stryngsOksanaa: I can show u how08:18
stryngsOksanaa: I have the red pill08:18
stryngsOksanaa: I can free your mind08:18
stryngsOksanaa: Anyways08:18
stryngsOksanaa: Tomorrow if your avail lets, chat08:18

Sicelolol stryngs. cssu shouldn't be forced down people's throats10:40
Sicelothis isn't Windows 1010:40
*** geaaru has joined #maemo10:40
KotCzarnysicelo, i wouldnt agree, cssu if done fine and with good QA is something worth pushing10:41
Siceloeven your normal distro allows you a lot of flexibility. btw, CSSU is *still* standard maemo, with many of the bugs fixed10:41
KotCzarnyand its not forced in a way you are not forced to do apt-get upgrade10:41
Sicelofor one, KotCzarny, there's no flashable image for CSSU. how can one force it then10:41
KotCzarnyflashable image isnt forcing either10:42
KotCzarnyjust a convenience10:42
Siceloso we're saying same thing heh.10:42
KotCzarnyeven on windows you can opt out of automatic updates (at least on pre-win10)10:43
Siceloindeed, that's why i chose to say "Windows 10" above ;)10:43
KotCzarnyright10:43
KotCzarnydidnt see the '10' somehow10:44
* Sicelo is responding to stryngs "if cssu is so good, then it should be a standard and not an option"10:44

Siceloiirc there are still lots of devies doing updates though10:47
Sicelo*devices10:47
KotCzarnyis cssu-features package the same as cssu?10:48
Siceloafaik, no. cssu-features configures/enables some of the additions to stanrdard maemo, such as portrait mode. i might be wrong though.10:49

stryngsOk, I'm responding to chatback right now, so if you say something to me, I won't respond to it just yet.  On the concept of CSSU and being able to provide an image to folks; it can be done.  It's how I do it with my own version of Maemo.  It requires some work and creativity, but it allows for a complete "offline" installation for your n900; much like downloading any random linux ISO.  One should not have to be "online" just to upgrade their n900.16:51
stryngsIMHO, Cssu shouldn't be done like it is; rather a meta-package; cssu_1.0_armel.deb.  This meta package will include everything you need.  I'm guessing it's somewhat done like that now, but "not" in the full debian style meta package sense.16:52
stryngsmerlin1991: Hi, I'm reading chatback right now, so can't respond just yet; but I got your pong =)  I'd really like to setup a community meeting online via IRC on an appointed day to discuss "Where we, the community" can go from here, and how to get those, who wish it, ALL on the same page; not the fragmeneted way things are done right now.16:53
stryngsya'ay, done with scrollback16:53
stryngsSo.....  What are ya'lls thoughts on that?  Creating one "standard" image, for those who wish to use it.  Call is CSSU-ng or whatever...  One simple .deb that provides a metapackage.  Using preinst, postinst, prerm, postrm and the control file; there is nothing that cannot be accomplished.16:54
stryngsAlso, for garage.maemo.org, I found a vulnerability; who does that get reported to....?  Do they hang out in this chatroom?  If not, why not, etc..?16:55

sixwheeledbeastZetaR: are we talking extras packages or system FOSS alternative packages19:05
ZetaRsixwheeledbeast: Something that will strip out as many of the proprietary packages as possible from a fresh flash. That is what I have in mind.19:06
sixwheeledbeastZetaR: people have personal versions but not "all closed packages", TBH if your on CSSU-T there's probably a reason that package is still closed and installed.19:09
ZetaRWell, like bme-replacement, for example. Or fapman. AFAIK, there are replacements for many of the unfree things but you have to know to look for them.19:11
kerioi'm preeeeeeeeeetty sure that HAM is opensource19:12
kerioand fapman is bad19:12
ZetaROh, well, these are things I am not well informed about, and why I am asking. Just replace with whatever is actually a good example. ;-)19:13

ZetaREven just a table of alternatives with comments (like "not recommended because of blah blah") would be nice.19:17

stryngsInteresting19:52
DocScrutinizer05~speedyham19:52
infobotit has been said that speedyham is 30 times faster than HAM http://maemo.merlin1991.at/cssu/community-devel/pool/free/h/hildon-application-manager/hildon-application-manager_2.2.73-2_armel.deb19:52
stryngsSo hey, DocScrutinizer05, http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools#proper_bash_and_tools <--- is that you?19:53
DocScrutinizer05sure :-)19:53
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: What have you thought about my idea of generating 1 community image to branch out from?19:53
DocScrutinizer05and I guess a mentioning of speedyham in there would just be in order19:53
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: "Bring" the community together, get us all on a level playing field.19:53
*** sla_erick_ has joined #maemo19:53
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Sure, see this is what I'm talking about.  If it's so good, ham should be removed and speedyham should be the standard.19:54
DocScrutinizer05you lost me19:54
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I want to, in the next couple weeks, get a gather of "smart" maemo folks.19:54
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I'd like us, to put our heads together and decide on what .debs should be on a "standard" image19:54
stryngsAnd then Push that as the "new" way to do maemo19:54
stryngsLike CSSU, but better.19:54
DocScrutinizer05yep, that's what I suggested as "my basic needs covered" package in CSSU repo, as am optional package19:54
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Thing is, everybody has a billion great ideas, but unless u look at the forums, or happen to be in chat at the right time and place; all these ideas are scattered like sand in the wind.19:55
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Whereas, since we evidently have control of the maemo domain via warfare, we can "point" users in a true northward direction.19:55
DocScrutinizer05sadly sort of true that19:55
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I propose, that a 100% offline "image" of "whatever we vote to call it" be made available.19:56
DocScrutinizer05"point users any direction" is not exactly simple19:56
stryngsI already do it with my personal image19:56
stryngsWe need to point em in one direction19:56
stryngsAnd then ofc, they can branch from there19:56
stryngsBut "one true community inspired" list of .debs and settings.19:56
stryngsi.e.19:56
DocScrutinizer05the mere pointing is a problem19:56
stryngsSo why not guide them and us DocScrutinizer05 ?19:57
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: You have TONS of postings19:57
stryngsbut they're scattered here and there and everywherre19:57
stryngsSicelo has nice stuff too19:57
stryngsetc, etc, etc...19:57
DocScrutinizer05we don't have any package we could swap for a new one and expect *all* users to get the update automatically. There's no such packet we have control of and could mess with it and everybody has installed19:57
stryngsYes we do!19:57
sla_erick_Hi there, is there any step by step or any tutorial that shows me how to run an example project in ESbox? Im running the virtual image with everything set up already, got xephyr running, but not sure how to run an example app19:58
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: We make a new repo19:58
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: In that repo we have 1 metapackage19:58
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: If users install that one meta19:58
DocScrutinizer05new repo is a big headache and nobody has it installed and we can't make anybody install it19:58
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Then our Depends: line in the control file, takes care of the rest19:58
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: We can "point em though"19:58
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I'm more than willing to host a repo, I already do for my own purposes.19:58
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I'm more than fluent with the meta concept, it's how I push updates for my own users19:59
DocScrutinizer05I could prepare a script or install-file or whatever, so users could do one-click-upgrade19:59
stryngsJust make it a postinst file in DEBIAN dir.19:59
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Again, revolve this purely around 1 meta deb.19:59
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: So...  Would you be interested in helping me gather the flock of smart folks?20:00
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: If we put our heads together, we could invent some kickass n900 project20:00
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Thanks to your post, I now know speedpatch is pointless.20:00
DocScrutinizer05again, we have no access to the basic repos (well, now we don't have *any* official basic repos), and we don't have a package in e.g. maemo-extras that every user has installed20:00
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Can we not put a package in maemo-extras?20:01
DocScrutinizer05(gather folks) Imight help a little bit, but actually I'm more than just busy with Neo90020:01
DocScrutinizer05yes, we can put as many packages in maemo-extras as we like20:01
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I completly understand, any help u can offer would be wonderful20:01
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I'm going to create a forum post soon on this idea, i'll link u when it's done.20:02

SiceloKotCzarny: do you know if battery-eye works with bme-replacement?20:10
DocScrutinizer05could even convert that to a fiasco image for flashing20:10
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I have something semi-like what you mention, just not "backup" per se20:11
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: I have users run 4 scripts from a tarball.  In that tarball is what I consider my basic n900 image.  It's not as "clean" as a backup manager thing, but that's because I also remove the need to worry about 'optification' and such.20:12
stryngsDocScrutinizer05:  The installation is 100% offline because all the debs are stored in the tarball itself.20:13
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Simple dpkg -i operations take place20:13
stryngsEnvironment changes, gconf, etc..20:13
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Where I'm lost at; is again, there is no "community consensus" on what's good package, and what's crap package, hence, my image having speedpatch and no speedyham20:14

KotCzarnybut as i said, its only my opinion20:17
KotCzarnysome people things that metapackage has to cover whole device experience20:17
stryngsKotCzarny: Take the "1" meta, we'll call it "base" for now...  The base meta will "STRIP" out all nonsense from stock maemo, and add needed essentials20:17
stryngsKotCzarny: Negative, other metas can do that20:18

DocScrutinizer05~cssu20:19
infobotcssu is probably http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU, or (Community Seamless Software Update)20:19
KotCzarnydoc, i was referring to stryngs idea of cssu metapackage20:19
* stryngs begins writing his proposal while the forge is hot20:19
DocScrutinizer05>>It aims to deliver fixes which would be difficult to deliver through Extras (like core Maemo packages). It won't, however, bundle software which can (or could) be installed through the Extras repositories.<<20:19
SiceloKotCzarny: have just been looking at the source. should work .. it gets info from lshal.20:20
sixwheeledbeastYou need to break the mp to move towards installing what you want, however, firstly all the dependencies of every package need checking and fixing.20:20
stryngssixwheeledbeast: mp?20:21
sixwheeledbeastmetapackage,20:22
stryngsAh20:22
stryngssixwheeledbeast: I'm typing up this idea right now; it's too much to put into chat.  I'm excited though, people are "thinking" about it and gears are turning20:22
*** KotCzarny has quit IRC20:23
sixwheeledbeastthe thing is everybody wants something different from Maemo. You need to get it more like a "normal" distro without the metapackage to move forward IMO20:24
stryngssixwheeledbeast: I want what u want20:25
stryngssixwheeledbeast: I believe I have the solution, which is why i'm writing it down20:25
stryngssixwheeledbeast: I believe it will solve everybody's wants too.20:25
stryngssixwheeledbeast: Without giving them "crap" they don't want20:26

stryngsYet, for folks like myself, we want everything "hacker", our needs are solved too20:26
*** erlehmann has joined #maemo20:26
DocScrutinizer05yes, the Meta is a PITA. It can't be *that* hard to create proper dependencies for all the packages in MP20:29
*** _rd_ has quit IRC20:29
DocScrutinizer05I fail to really wrap my head around how 'normal' distros make stuff like kernel or dbus or X11 install, but it seems there's no black magic inside maemo couldn't do as well20:30
Sicelowhat is the real *problem* that is being fixed by the proposed idea?20:30
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: Maemo can do it20:30
erlehmannkernel, dbus and x11 is ok20:31
erlehmannsystemd is where it gets hairy20:31
erlehmannthe devs have this vision that it is updated in lockstep with the linux kernel20:31
stryngsSicelo: I'm typing it up!20:31
erlehmannbut the debian package dependency handle system cannot do that, i was told20:31

erlehmannso back to the thing20:57
KotCzarnyhehe, so systemd is just about shaving 5s boot time, when we have tux-on-ice, yet making it inflexible and buggy20:57
KotCzarnysounds like the right idea20:58
stryngsCan one of ya'll do me a favor and on your n900, please do: mount | nc termbin.com 9999 && df -h | nc termbin.com 999920:59

KotCzarny:)21:06
stryngsTrying to make this as indepth of a writeup as possible.  I'm only going to get one shot at this when it comes to people listening....21:06
DocScrutinizer05pastebin.com is JS infested iirc21:06
DocScrutinizer05actually nope, it's a plain txt21:06

DocScrutinizer05aaah that's why21:07
KotCzarnyfaster and no js, dont know why they hate stryngs chrome21:07
KotCzarnyas i said, link worked in links21:08
stryngsMeh, no worries, DocScrutinizer05's post was exactly what I needed21:08
stryngsI really thought  you lulz'd me though, I busted out laughing21:08
KotCzarnystryngs, his system is cssu, mine us stock fremantle21:08
DocScrutinizer05...and it made me curse why no netcat on my N90021:09
Sicelocssu doesn't repartition anything iirc .. so they'll be the same21:09
KotCzarnysicelo, what about free space?21:09
Siceloi doubt that's what stryngs is after :)21:09
DocScrutinizer05well, it doesn't repartition but for sure has some changes to uSD card mounts21:09
Sicelohe's likely on mounts the way i understand21:10
stryngsSicelo: you're 100% correct21:10
KotCzarnyi wonder why pymaemo is so ugly in bind mounts21:10
stryngsKotCzarny: I intend to fix that.21:10
stryngsKotCzarny: Quick, fast and in a hurry.21:10
KotCzarnysymlinks would suffice21:10
stryngsThis is where Pali will come in at too21:10
stryngsNo, no symlinks, bind mounts21:10
stryngsI want FHS21:10
erlehmannstryngs what is the writeup?21:10
stryngserlehmann: My proposal for a "standard maemo" "distro"21:10
stryngserlehmann: But, I've gotta make sure I write it up proper, otherwise, nobody will care, and things stay the same.21:11
stryngserlehmann: I will post before end of day though.21:11
erlehmannstryngs maemo 6?21:11
Sicelo721:11
stryngserlehmann: We can call it dogwater for all i care.21:11
* stryngs goes back to writing21:11
Sicelo6 is Harmattan ;)21:11
KotCzarnyhmm, but it will need repartitioned internal mmc, right?21:11

DocScrutinizer05that's great :-D21:16
DocScrutinizer05but actually it's not a veritable distro, it's just a collection of patches and apps21:16
KotCzarnydoc, remember difference between chinook and diablo?21:16
KotCzarnyalso just a collection of patches and upgrades21:16
DocScrutinizer05so what Yast calls a category or group or theme21:16
KotCzarnyanagram: did you mean: nag a ram?21:17

erlehmannokay, is it possible to create a bare-bones image for maemo?21:27
erlehmannlike, with current tools?21:27
erlehmannone that can be flashed to the n900?21:28
*** Oksana has joined #maemo21:28
KotCzarnyflashable? yes, fiasco? probably not21:28
stryngserlehmann: Yes and no.  flash and the apt-get purge21:28
erlehmannfiasco?21:28
KotCzarnyrescueos is a nice base for arbitrary flashing21:29
KotCzarnywith ability to change partitions too21:29
erlehmannso how far can we get with a bare-bones image and mostly-free software?21:29

KotCzarnyerlehman: fiasco is the image format used by flasher-3.521:30
stryngserlehmann: Pretty damn far, the problem is all the info is scattered worse than a sandstorm21:30
erlehmannthen we should start collecting ti21:31
erlehmannit21:31
KotCzarnyinitrd based boot + some scripting + mtd tools ?21:31

KotCzarny0xFFFF can boot kernel+initrd21:32
erlehmannmtd?21:32
KotCzarnyinternal flash is mtd device21:32
KotCzarnyunless we talk about moving everything to internal sd21:32
erlehmannbusybox can be init21:32
erlehmanni have an outlandish idea21:32
erlehmannuse DJB redo for init system21:32
erlehmanni implemented redo in like 300 lines of shell script21:32
erlehmann:321:32
erlehmannso you could have dependency based boot with shell21:33
KotCzarnyi dont mind good ol' sysvinit21:33
KotCzarnybut redo/upstart work as long its consistent21:34
erlehmannyeah, or that21:35
erlehmann:321:35
KotCzarnydoes redo work with standard apps? (for example apache init scripts etc)21:36

KotCzarnyhe left21:40

stryngsDocScrutinizer05: o0o021:46
stryngsDocScrutinizer05: So we "can" build an image, that has more and less than what the stock pr1.3 comes with, and flash it Directly to the n900?21:47
DocScrutinizer05yes21:47
stryngsIntersting, I'm going to notate that21:48
stryngsYet another tidbit of info21:48
* stryngs hears "Dust in the Wind" playing softly in the background21:48
* DocScrutinizer05 heads to kitchen for some calories goo and a fine latte mac21:49
DocScrutinizer05stryngs: yet another "info" source you as well could ignore: wiki "the optimal setup"21:50
DocScrutinizer05pretty biased21:50
DocScrutinizer05it might have valuable factoids in it, but you need to check every single line if it's actually what you want21:52
*** shamus has quit IRC21:53
KotCzarnyThen I tried systemd again. I have configured my system for runlevel 3, but initctl insists on runlevel 5 for the legacy initscripts. You cannot change this behaviour because it is hardcoded in the C source like engraved in stone, seriously! This is exactly why I prefer scripts.21:57
KotCzarnycould be the reason my initscripts in this systemd debian are a mess21:58
