| brolin_empey | Incidentally: Is PATA↔SuperSpeed USB possible in practice? Is there a hardware implementation of such a converter/bridge? | 03:39 |
| brolin_empey | I know that SATA↔SuperSpeed USB hardware is commercially available but I wonder if High-speed (480 Mb/s) USB is the fastest possible in practice for PATA? | 03:40 |
| brolin_empey | PATA supports up to at least 133 MB (or MiB?)/s so I guess PATA↔SuperSpeed USB has a benefit/advantage in practice over PATA↔High-speed USB. | 03:43 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | in the times where PATA was 'state of the art', 480Mb/s were sufficient for the bandwidth of the HDD | 03:50 |

| KotCzarny | turn on plane mode? | 11:06 |
| Vajb | beside=instead | 11:06 |
| Vajb | right! | 11:06 |
| KotCzarny | sometimes sim/chip reseats itself and its enough to turn modem off/on | 11:06 |
| Vajb | that didn't even cross my mind | 11:07 |
| KotCzarny | powerkey menu much? | 11:07 |
| Vajb | come again? | 11:07 |
| KotCzarny | just paraphrasing some meme | 11:07 |
| Vajb | or you meant flight mode can be found there | 11:08 |
| KotCzarny | that too | 11:08 |
| Vajb | :) | 11:08 |
| KotCzarny | explaining the thought train: if you use powerkey menu more often you would remmeber the options you had in there | 11:08 |
| Vajb | oh well my phone has been acting few weeks now | 11:08 |
| Vajb | it loses network and finds it again soon | 11:09 |
| KotCzarny | reseat sim? | 11:09 |
| Vajb | yes and since i rarely reboot that didn't even come to mind | 11:10 |
| Vajb | i did that at summer | 11:10 |
| Vajb | also cleaned sim contacts | 11:10 |
| Vajb | and put small piece of tape to add more pressure there | 11:10 |
| Vajb | to squeeze at the best spot :) | 11:11 |
| KotCzarny | too much of the tape and it could made things worse | 11:11 |

| ceene | which is the right procedure when changing battery? | 11:26 |
| KotCzarny | 1/ turn off the device | 11:26 |
| KotCzarny | 2/ take out old battery | 11:26 |
| KotCzarny | 3/ put in new one | 11:26 |
| KotCzarny | 4/ turn on the device | 11:26 |
| KotCzarny | done | 11:26 |
| ceene | :P | 11:26 |
| ceene | full charge and calibration by slowly discharging? | 11:26 |
| KotCzarny | if you meant calibration then suck it dry, full charge, suck it dry again (regular/low use) | 11:27 |
| KotCzarny | capacity should stabilize after few cycles | 11:27 |
| ceene | ok! | 11:27 |
| bencoh | unless you were talking about the bq27xx calibration | 11:28 |
| bencoh | which has nothing to do with any battery cleaning / cycle | 11:28 |
| ceene | i don't know what i'm talking about, i want it to work as best as possible | 11:28 |
| KotCzarny | i would just use it | 11:29 |
| bencoh | ceene: do you use stock bme or pali's bme replacement? | 11:30 |
| ceene | pali's one | 11:30 |
| bencoh | then you need to go through calibration of the bq27xx | 11:31 |
| bencoh | which mean full charge / discharge | 11:31 |
| bencoh | (dont let it die though) | 11:31 |
| ceene | ok, i think i've done that before | 11:31 |
| KotCzarny | bencoh, i've read that its not important keeping it alive, just doing low mA discharge | 11:32 |
| bencoh | use the bq27*.sh script to keep an eye on the chip registers and the battery voltage/level/drawed current | 11:32 |
| bencoh | drawn* | 11:32 |
| bencoh | KotCzarny: if you dont mind messing your FAT, sure, it's not important :) | 11:33 |

| Vajb | i think that fiddling with those bq27 scripts is no longer needed with bme-replacement | 12:00 |
| Vajb | at least i didn't have to use them anymore | 12:01 |
| Vajb | tho it took awhile to get mugen calibrated | 12:01 |
| Vajb | also i thought that device shuts down before it actually runs out of juice completely | 12:02 |
| Vajb | to power down safely | 12:02 |
| bencoh | how did you check status? | 12:02 |
| KotCzarny | yes, close to 3250mV or something | 12:02 |
| Vajb | i didn't havfe to. I just used it till it powered down | 12:03 |
| Vajb | 3248 to be precice ;) | 12:03 |
| KotCzarny | but during shutdown power surge makes it insta turn off, could happen in a middle of the write | 12:03 |
| bencoh | stock bme powers down, but way too early. I don't know about bme-replacement | 12:03 |
| Vajb | yes with stock u needed scripts, but replacement is smarter or something | 12:04 |
| bencoh | cool | 12:04 |
| Vajb | and im speaking of bme-replacement from separate repo | 12:05 |
| Vajb | Sicelo: did u know that maemo pidgin has purple plugin also? I thought of maybe it could work just by copying libfacebook.so from desktop pidgin to maemo. | 12:07 |
| KotCzarny | you cant copy binary files | 12:07 |
| KotCzarny | you wil lhave to recompile it | 12:08 |

| Sicelo | yes : | 12:08 |
| Sicelo | :) | 12:08 |
| Sicelo | Vajb: by the way this is in connection with? because 'purple' *is* pidgin | 12:09 |
| Sicelo | ah, i see .. facebook .. you would need to compile the new pidgin plugin, which does work (presents itself to facebook as web app) | 12:09 |
| Vajb | no? | 12:09 |
| Vajb | there is pidgin-purple plugin or smth like that | 12:10 |
| Vajb | or purple-pidgin | 12:10 |
| KotCzarny | libpurple is the name of the pidgin core | 12:10 |
| *** florian_kc is now known as florian | 12:10 | |
| Vajb | ok | 12:11 |
| Vajb | but anyways maemo pidgin has facebook (xmmp) and facebook after installing that | 12:11 |
| Vajb | problem is it doens't work still | 12:11 |
| bencoh | https://github.com/jgeboski/purple-facebook that one ? | 12:11 |
| Vajb | doesn't* | 12:12 |
| Vajb | yes | 12:12 |
| bencoh | Vajb: pidgin in maemo is probably quite outdated | 12:12 |
| Sicelo | not too bad :) | 12:12 |
| bencoh | I dunno if this purple-facebook plugin is still API-compatible with our pidgin version though | 12:12 |
| Vajb | i guess it is | 12:13 |
| Vajb | outdated :) | 12:13 |
| Vajb | no idea if it's compatible | 12:13 |
| KotCzarny | compare libpurple versions | 12:13 |
| Vajb | but as noted earlier battery lasts longer without facebook xmmp running... | 12:14 |
| KotCzarny | ;) | 12:17 |
| KotCzarny | it's either features or idle | 12:17 |

| bencoh | moving out? :) | 15:26 |
| alexey | nope, just using free day (holiday in Finland today) to clean up the old stuff. Found 5 firewire cables, which puzzles me -- never owned anything that requires firewire | 15:27 |

| *** eijk has quit IRC | 15:35 | |
| alexey | Okay, it seems to work, so my next offer: N900 phone, well-used but seemingly working, no accessories or box (but stylus and original headset are there) for free. Battery condition is, eghm, unknown. I can post from Finland but won't pay the postage. If nobody wants it, it goes to trash. | 15:44 |
| KotCzarny | alexey: leaving maemo? :/ | 15:51 |
| Wizzup | alexey: I have more interest in the n900 than in the n810, still living in amsterdam :) | 15:54 |

| Sicelo009N | omg alexey | 15:55 |
| KotCzarny | :> | 15:55 |
| alexey | I did leave Maemo years ago, at "N800 is almost ready" stage :) | 15:55 |
| KotCzarny | you did get n8x0 and n900 anyway? | 15:56 |
| KotCzarny | :) | 15:56 |
| KotCzarny | alexey, can you check how much is the shipping to poland? | 15:56 |
| KotCzarny | i guess wizzup will benefit from n900 more (i have 3.5 already) | 15:56 |
| KotCzarny | but n810 wouldnt be half bad too | 15:57 |
| alexey | KotCzarny: I'll check tomorrow; I think one of my colleagues will travel to Poland in a month or two | 16:00 |

| fishbulb | is there anything "better" to run on an n900? | 18:24 |
| fishbulb | and is there a list of "best apps" that still work? | 18:24 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: the hackpack | 18:24 |
| stryngs | =) | 18:24 |
| fishbulb | you have my interest... | 18:25 |
| stryngs | https://n900-hackers.org/ | 18:25 |
| fishbulb | I dunno though, it's a dodo. I managed to crack wep once | 18:25 |
| stryngs | Enjoy =) | 18:25 |
| fishbulb | it's so slow, I have an android tablet that's faster than my last computer | 18:26 |
| fishbulb | what have you succeeded in doing? | 18:26 |
| stryngs | A whole lot with it. And now I have help, so even more. hackpack is based on PwnPhonev2 | 18:30 |
| stryngs | BUt it grew and matured from there. | 18:30 |
| fishbulb | what kinda interesting or cool stuff have you managed to do with it? | 18:31 |
| KotCzarny | oscp of course | 18:34 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: Scroll down to the bottom of https://n900-hackers.org/hackpack/DIRECTIONS_1.0 and you'll see all the .debs it has | 18:37 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: It's a pentest distro for the n900 | 18:37 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: Easiest way i can describe it =) | 18:37 |
| fishbulb | but have you done anything really cool? | 18:38 |
| fishbulb | I had pwnphone installed and honestly I think I managed to crack WEP twice ever | 18:39 |
| fishbulb | I mean pwnie express, and all that stuff | 18:39 |
| stryngs | yeah | 18:42 |
| stryngs | hackpack is way better than pwnphone | 18:42 |
| stryngs | A lot more mature so to speak | 18:42 |
| stryngs | v2 was cool and all, but hackpack destroys it performance wise | 18:42 |
| *** Vajb has quit IRC | 18:53 | |
| *** xorly has joined #maemo | 18:53 | |
| fishbulb | ok but can you give a real world example of something interesting to do with it? | 18:54 |
| fishbulb | you can leave out the specifics if you want :P | 18:55 |
| fishbulb | I'm interested to see what someone has done with it | 18:55 |
| stryngs | It's metasploit in your pocket? | 18:57 |
| stryngs | and the things i have done with it, I am under NDA | 18:57 |
| stryngs | I'll leave it, that I actually use it on assessments | 18:57 |
| stryngs | It runs airpwn-ng | 18:57 |
| fishbulb | doesnt' any android phone or tablet do the same, but with 2gb of ram and a quadcore processor? | 18:58 |
| bencoh | not sure you can use the monitor mode of your wireless interface, or inject packets, with an android phone | 18:59 |
| stryngs | ^ | 18:59 |
| stryngs | And that's why i use an n900 | 18:59 |
| stryngs | I'm just a dude on a phone | 18:59 |
| stryngs | with the stupid tablet, you're some weirdo doing something bad | 18:59 |
| stryngs | plus... It's linux. | 18:59 |
| stryngs | What I do on the n900, can be ported to a pi | 18:59 |
| bencoh | I still think most of your work could go to extra, but meh, btw | 19:00 |
| stryngs | bencoh: It can't | 19:00 |
| stryngs | bencoh: I don't optimize | 19:00 |
| stryngs | I refuse to | 19:00 |
| stryngs | i.e. My root is about 9gb | 19:01 |
| stryngs | maemo is 256mb | 19:01 |
| bencoh | ... | 19:01 |
| fishbulb | you refuse to optimise and you refuse to check whether modern phones can do the same thing literlaly 100 times faster? | 19:01 |
| stryngs | my debs would overflow anybodies n900 | 19:01 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: Modern phones cannot | 19:01 |
| KotCzarny | [root@lamobo 18:01:30 ~]# df -h | 19:01 |
| KotCzarny | /dev/root 1.8G 1.2G 542M 69% / | 19:01 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: No other phone can do what the n900 can do with their wifi | 19:01 |
| fishbulb | yes they can, look at nethunter | 19:01 |
| bencoh | stryngs: not if you just enable a flag in your source package and push it to extras as a source package | 19:02 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: No they cant | 19:02 |
| KotCzarny | my router/nas/cloud/shell/audio box | 19:02 |
| bencoh | but nevermind | 19:02 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: Not without an external dongle | 19:02 |
| stryngs | bencoh: I also build natively, and so the .debs aren't "debian proper". Theres a host of reasons why it'll always be incompatible. | 19:02 |
| stryngs | bencoh: The way I look at it, if people want to use it, go for it. If not, oh well =) | 19:02 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: Not hating on nethunter, but until they figure out monitor mode for it, i'm not interested. | 19:03 |

| KotCzarny | hmm | 20:01 |
| KotCzarny | but reboot fixed it? | 20:01 |
| Vajb | but KotCzarny's succestion to flight mode and back fixed it | 20:01 |
| KotCzarny | :) | 20:01 |
| KotCzarny | i think enabling plane mode turns off/resets modem chip | 20:02 |
| KotCzarny | i might be wrong tho | 20:02 |
| Vajb | sicelo's solution gave me no such folder error | 20:02 |
| *** florian has joined #maemo | 20:02 | |

| *** realitygaps has quit IRC | 20:02 | |

| Vajb | since it's for flight | 20:02 |
| Vajb | i guess i don't know how to use it :p | 20:02 |
| KotCzarny | ie. go root, then start: pnatd | 20:02 |
| KotCzarny | there you should enter string beginning with AT | 20:03 |
| Vajb | yes i got there | 20:03 |
| Vajb | and it said error no such folder | 20:03 |

| *** troulouliou_div2 has quit IRC | 20:05 | |
| KotCzarny | at+COPS=? (yes, with ? at the end) | 20:05 |
| Vajb | lets see | 20:05 |
| Sicelo009N | when i've had the issue, it was never 'solvable' by online->offline->online | 20:07 |
| Vajb | works | 20:07 |
| Sicelo009N | but at+cfun=0 has always worked 100%. maybe we have different root causes | 20:07 |
| KotCzarny | vajb: at+cfun=? or at+cfun | 20:07 |
| Sicelo009N | and it's not typo :) | 20:07 |
| Vajb | at+cfun=? says ok | 20:08 |
| Vajb | at+gmr gives some info about device | 20:08 |
| KotCzarny | you may also try: https://wiki.maemo.org/Phone_control#Enable_cellular_radio | 20:08 |
| Vajb | eeek | 20:08 |
| Vajb | at+cops=? says ok | 20:09 |
| Sicelo009N | at+cfun=0 .. response will be OK, then shortly you will see the sim card crossed out symbol, and the terminal will no longer respond. few seconds later the | 20:09 |
| Vajb | well as longer as flight mode thing makes it work im ok | 20:09 |
| KotCzarny | bot those dbus commands essentially do the same as powerkey thingy | 20:09 |
| Sicelo009N | modem should power up again | 20:10 |
| Sicelo009N | definitely a deeper cycle than offline->online | 20:10 |
| KotCzarny | well, i wonder what 'offline' mode in powerkey menu does | 20:11 |
| Vajb | ok will try that again if and when that happens again | 20:11 |
| Vajb | any thoughts of why it found my home network, but said not allowed when i tried to connect? | 20:12 |
| Sicelo009N | offline disables the modem. but not power-cycle it. SIM never 'disappears' | 20:12 |
| KotCzarny | vajb, maybe some roaming? | 20:13 |
| Vajb | actually i saw crossed sim symbol after i enabled online mode | 20:13 |
| Vajb | roaming? | 20:13 |
| KotCzarny | is it possible that there is some interference in your area? | 20:13 |
| Vajb | im at home country | 20:13 |
| KotCzarny | work done on the towers? | 20:13 |
| KotCzarny | vajb: inter operatora roaming | 20:13 |
| bencoh | no such folder? | 20:14 |
| Sicelo009N | then something's wrong on your N900. in all my time of ownership , never once had sim crossed out for Offline mode :) | 20:14 |
| Vajb | well there is almost -30. So maybe that does some funky business with towers | 20:14 |
| KotCzarny | yeah, for offline mode it shows '/G' | 20:14 |
| Vajb | but otherwise no idea | 20:15 |
| Sicelo | KotCzarny: you can actually test AT+CFUN yourself right now. no harm | 20:15 |
| Vajb | hmm could it be that that command actually worked without me realising it? | 20:15 |
| Vajb | i ran it and it whine then i closed terminal and did flight mode trick | 20:16 |
| KotCzarny | sicelo, i know what cfun does (roughly) | 20:16 |
| KotCzarny | i had my share of fun with 33.6k | 20:16 |
| KotCzarny | and later with usb modems | 20:16 |
| Sicelo | ok | 20:17 |
| KotCzarny | vajb: trick is to run at+cfun=1 later to reenable | 20:17 |
| Sicelo | nop. it reenables itself :) | 20:17 |
| KotCzarny | oh | 20:17 |
| Sicelo | takes a little bit, maybe 10-20s | 20:17 |
| Vajb | well i don't know what happened then | 20:17 |
| Vajb | atleast im back online | 20:17 |
| KotCzarny | :) | 20:18 |
| KotCzarny | welcome back then ;) | 20:18 |

| KotCzarny | grab the n900 from anthonov | 20:19 |
| KotCzarny | ;) | 20:19 |
| KotCzarny | if wizzup doesnt snatch it earlier | 20:19 |
| Vajb | guess i'll just switch back to my reliable e90 heheh | 20:19 |
| Vajb | tho it needs screen replacement | 20:20 |
| KotCzarny | s/antonov/alexey/ | 20:20 |
| Vajb | oh yes | 20:20 |
| Vajb | where in finland you live alexey? | 20:21 |
| KotCzarny | you are in fi, he too | 20:21 |
| Vajb | yeah | 20:21 |
| KotCzarny | you can then send your failing n900 to wizzup for a development device | 20:21 |
| Vajb | hmm is it reliable enough for that? | 20:22 |
| KotCzarny | sure, its only modem failing | 20:22 |
| Vajb | i have that other which reboots randomly too | 20:23 |
| KotCzarny | and i bet he could use a device for package testing etc | 20:23 |
| stryngs | fishbulb: 9gb /. Its the way maemo is laid out. Typically your / is mounted on the 256mb NAND. I did some binds to avoid most of this | 20:23 |
| Vajb | i can try that with fresh flash and stuff if this refuses to connect completely | 20:23 |

| infobot | optification is a inventive duct tape workaround to reclaim space in fs root, done due to the fact the systeminit *and* partitioning is FUBAR, http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Packaging,_Deploying_and_Distributing/Installing_under_opt_and_MyDocs, or ""OMG - I wish they looked into FHS and moved /usr to eMMC"", http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE2 bullet1,2 and fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE16 dot3" | 20:37 |
| bencoh | +1 for FUBAR | 20:38 |
| stryngs | ^^ | 20:39 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | actually I'm pretty sure some users even did a correct setup, moving complete /usr to eMMC and bindmounting it | 20:44 |
| KotCzarny | one cant move complete /usr without init hacking | 20:44 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | alas this will collide with all 'normal' maemo packages | 20:44 |
| stryngs | ^ | 20:44 |
| stryngs | Yup | 20:44 |
| bencoh | I'm not sure it would collide so much actually | 20:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you first need to un-optify them before they could benefit from a proper /usr setup | 20:45 |
| KotCzarny | bencoh, there is some stuff required for boot in /usr | 20:45 |
| *** SAiF has joined #maemo | 20:45 | |
| *** SAiF is now known as Guest98000 | 20:45 | |
| bencoh | DocScrutinizer05: it wouldn't prevent optified packages from working... would it? | 20:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but again you're lucky, there's a script for that on your stock maemo5 system | 20:46 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | bencoh: nope, should work | 20:46 |
| KotCzarny | i personally moved whole perl to /opt, threw away the bind mounts and just symlinked it | 20:47 |
| stryngs | With my crazy bindmounts, I use maemo packages like normal | 20:47 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the probelm rather is: several packages should have been moved from /usr/bin/* to /bin/ by maemo distro maintainers | 20:47 |
| bencoh | yeah | 20:48 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | maemo assumes /usr/(bin|lib|foo)/* being available during early boot, and that's the real brainfuck that finally led to optification | 20:48 |

| sixwheeledbeast | Why would he care about root partitions? | 21:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | what we need for maemo to sanitize is an anti-optify that moves all binaries in /usr/*/ that are _not_ symlinks to /OPT/*/*/* to the corrensponding /*/* location (i.e. /usr/lib/foo to /lib/foo if /usr/lib/foo is *not* a symlink). Then unoptify all the symlinked shuff and finally move /usr to eMMC | 21:06 |

| sixwheeledbeast | DocScrutinizer05: nope, I wondered what started the topic | 21:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sixwheeledbeast: poettering: >>nowadays every system has at least 5GB of /" (OWTTE) | 21:08 |
| KotCzarny | doc is proposing symlinking hell | 21:11 |
| KotCzarny | it really doesnt make sense to stop at half way | 21:11 |
| KotCzarny | we need / on emmc (all of it) and /home on another partition on emmc | 21:11 |
| * Maxdamantus has 27.4 GiB on / | 21:11 | |
| sixwheeledbeast | but still why would he be bothered. systemd is far from "do one thing and do it well". | 21:12 |
| Maxdamantus | Why /home on another partition? | 21:12 |
| stryngs | for the camera i imagine | 21:12 |
| stryngs | MyDocs | 21:12 |
| stryngs | etc.. | 21:12 |
| KotCzarny | maxd to get rid of mydocs as a vfat | 21:12 |
| * Maxdamantus just has his root filesystem in /home/maemo5-root | 21:12 | |
| * Maxdamantus did that, doesn't have a separate /home partition. | 21:13 | |
| KotCzarny | (and yes, i want to get rid of emmc exporting via usb and using tinysamba | 21:13 |
| KotCzarny | maxd, main reason for separate /home is user data not being wiped during reflashing/rewriting / | 21:14 |
| KotCzarny | and filling up the fs by the same user not making system unbootable | 21:15 |
| KotCzarny | maybe we should have a poll on tmo about what size / and /home should be | 21:16 |
| stryngs | should be 30gb and home should be 2gb | 21:17 |
| stryngs | imho | 21:17 |
| stryngs | / should be 30gb and home should be 2gb | 21:17 |
| stryngs | stupid irssi | 21:17 |
| Sicelo | what's going to occupy / then? | 21:17 |
| Humpelstilzchen | why separate partitions anyway? | 21:18 |
| bencoh | Humpelstilzchen: nand+eMMC | 21:18 |
| bencoh | cant make that disappear | 21:18 |
| Humpelstilzchen | lvm.. | 21:18 |
| KotCzarny | sicelo: everything -user data | 21:18 |
| bencoh | Humpelstilzchen: ah, hmm ... | 21:18 |
| Sicelo | and /home ? | 21:18 |
| bencoh | not sure I'd want lvm on nand, but ... | 21:18 |
| Sicelo | 30GB / seems ... funky .. | 21:19 |
| stryngs | 15 and 15 then | 21:19 |
| stryngs | But more than 256mb | 21:19 |
| stryngs | I use 9gb and it seems sane | 21:19 |
| stryngs | whatever the sed trick gives | 21:20 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer05: it might work with packages that use that maemo-optify thing | 21:21 |
| kerio | that's horrendously broken | 21:21 |
| kerio | but it won't work with packages that install themselves in /opt/ | 21:21 |
| stryngs | Personally, I don't care where packages install themselves; if I want to find something, I can dpkg -x it or whatever. For me, the main thing is don't FILL the / or any other partition. | 21:23 |
| * Maxdamantus doesn't randomly recreate root partitions on his computers, including his phone. | 21:25 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | kerio: packages that install themselves in /opt are arguably not broken or flawed. The real problem is to keep them untouched when we deoptify the system, since they also may have symlinks in /usr/* | 21:25 |
| kerio | you can't "deoptify" them | 21:25 |
| * Maxdamantus has `rm` for that. | 21:25 | |
| kerio | without upgrading their packaging | 21:25 |
| kerio | and if you do that, dpkg takes care of it for you | 21:25 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | s/may have/may and *ought* have/ | 21:27 |
| infobot | DocScrutinizer05 meant: kerio: packages that install themselves in /opt are arguably not broken or flawed. The real problem is to keep them untouched when we deoptify the system, since they also may and *ought* have symlinks in /usr/* | 21:27 |
| *** ceene has quit IRC | 21:31 | |
| stryngs | So what are we thinking ladies/gents... A new era for maemo? | 21:35 |
| fishbulb | hey you're debian nuts | 21:35 |
| stryngs | Shall we come together and build something, better? | 21:35 |
| stryngs | Captain planet style...? | 21:36 |
| fishbulb | captian planet didn't run for as long as this thing has been | 21:36 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I'm honestly convinced the future for fremantle is careful improvements, step after step. "Something new" is maybe appealing but for sure not maemo fremantle anymore | 21:38 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | all the beauty of maemo5 is in its maturity | 21:38 |
| *** Pali has joined #maemo | 21:38 | |
| bencoh | hmm | 21:41 |
| *** futpib has joined #maemo | 21:52 | |
| KotCzarny | cssu is a chance for 'something new' | 21:56 |
| KotCzarny | lets not f*ck it with nokia wtfs | 21:56 |
| bencoh | KotCzarny: not really | 21:57 |
| stryngs | cssu, would be cool; if it could be done without a script. | 21:58 |
| bencoh | wtf? | 22:00 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hehe | 22:01 |
| *** xes has joined #maemo | 22:01 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, scripts are a nogo in *NIX | 22:01 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cssu is the maemo4/5 *update* | 22:01 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | please don't get fooled into thinking of cssu as a new OS release | 22:02 |
| KotCzarny | it might be fremantle-reloaded 1.4.0 | 22:04 |
| Sicelo | yes, that's fine. we still need to keep 'normal' Maemo though for those that aren't interested in the fancy stuff | 22:05 |
| KotCzarny | sicelo, 1.3.1 images are for those users | 22:05 |
| Sicelo | no. those are outdated | 22:05 |
| Sicelo | and it isn't fair to introduce complexity for users not needing to go that far. we need to keep cssu as it is, then a geek fork can be launched on the side for those interested | 22:06 |
| KotCzarny | seriously, anyone still using n900 either is a hacker or linux geek | 22:08 |
| Sicelo | in this regard, you can conside Thumb to be a fork, and that works fine :) | 22:08 |
| Sicelo | KotCzarny: not necessarily | 22:08 |
| KotCzarny | sicelo, would be swell to have hardfloat os | 22:09 |
| Sicelo | there are many more N900 users than we see on IRC. go to Yappari thread to see .. some of those can't get a log from /home/user/.config/scorpius/yappari.log | 22:10 |
| * DocScrutinizer05 idly ponders if >50% of maemo genuine executables are scripts | 22:10 | |
| KotCzarny | yappari could be nomore if wa keeps on breaking api/banning | 22:10 |
| Sicelo | the point is .. not all N900 users even know a lot of linux | 22:11 |
| Sicelo | by making CSSU become too geeky, we're basically 'killing' those people. so let's make geek forks all we want, but keep base system maintained as far as reasonably possible, i.e. CSSU | 22:12 |
| stryngs | Sicelo: You make a valid point | 22:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the point is: even if they do, they might insist in a non-hacker version for their daily phone. I for one do | 22:12 |
| stryngs | What is this daily phone thing | 22:12 |
| stryngs | That blows my mind | 22:12 |
| Sicelo | ? | 22:12 |
| stryngs | To me, the n900 is my toy, but a phone? It sucks. | 22:13 |
| Sicelo | doesn't suck for me :) | 22:13 |
| stryngs | Slow browsing | 22:13 |
| stryngs | etc.. | 22:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | phh so what? | 22:13 |
| Sicelo | been my main phone since 2009 | 22:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | same here | 22:13 |
| stryngs | DocScrutinizer05: I'm used to Nexus5 for a "smartphone" | 22:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and that's relevant to maemo how? | 22:13 |
| stryngs | I've just never seen how people would want to use it as an actual phone | 22:14 |
| stryngs | It's bulky, etc.. | 22:14 |
| Sicelo | (OT: my silent earpiece is killing me) | 22:14 |
| Sicelo | stryngs: it was sold as a phone haha | 22:14 |
| stryngs | I look at it as a computer that can make a phone call | 22:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | again, what's the relevance of your personal thoughts to 30k+ of maemo5 users? | 22:14 |
| stryngs | Meh, just my opinion =) | 22:16 |
| stryngs | And like an asshole, we all have em =) | 22:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cssu is meant to ensure a extended livespan to the device for those 30k users, in a way they are used to and expect it to continue to work like that | 22:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but I'm duplicating, just read the preamble in ~cssu | 22:17 |
| KotCzarny | smart phones should be names gaming phones | 22:18 |
| KotCzarny | n900 IS a smart phone | 22:18 |
| KotCzarny | for SMART people | 22:18 |
| KotCzarny | :) | 22:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Sicelo: (silent earpiece) please elaborate | 22:19 |
| KotCzarny | sicelo, main thing is the package compatibility issue between old and new | 22:19 |
| KotCzarny | having everything on / means old packages should install/work fine, and new packages can be autooptified on install i think | 22:20 |
| KotCzarny | (when installed on old fremantle) | 22:20 |
| Sicelo | DocScrutinizer05: something causes the earpiece on my main N900 to not 'work' for phone calls. no sound. i have to either use loudspeaker or earphones. the earpiece is definitely working however, as a restart of pulseaudio seems to restore correct functionality about 90% of the time. i have no clue what does this. as far as i know i don't have anything installed that should be responsible. | 22:21 |
| Sicelo | reinstalled pulseaudio, but situation persists. | 22:22 |
| sixwheeledbeast | As time goes by it seems the phone application still works, compare that to all the other ageing packages in Maemo. | 22:22 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I use the phone more than anything else | 22:23 |
| bencoh | :D | 22:24 |
| bencoh | riiight | 22:24 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Probably followed by OMP, Terminal, Modrana and Modest | 22:24 |
| bencoh | xterm (the real one) and marble for me, but YMMV | 22:24 |
| KotCzarny | phone, oscp, terminal (ssh, mc) | 22:25 |
| Sicelo | XTerminal (ssh), Yappari, Pidgin, MicroB, Fennec, Ovi Maps, Dorian (epub), OMP/stock MP .. my list | 22:26 |
| Sicelo | well i don't use phone much because i hate making phone calls .. but people do call me, so i need to count that one too | 22:26 |
| *** Guest98000 has quit IRC | 22:27 | |
| Vajb | u can install callerx to block those calls Sicelo :) | 22:27 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Sicelo: strange. do a amixer -c0 | 22:27 |
| Sicelo | haha. i don't need to block them .. they are 'valid' e.g. my parents | 22:27 |
| Vajb | jk | 22:27 |
| Sicelo | :) | 22:28 |
| *** Guest98000 has joined #maemo | 22:28 | |

| alexey | Vajb: Helsinki area | 22:29 |
| Vajb | +notes too | 22:29 |
| Sicelo | DocScrutinizer05: http://paste.debian.net/361554/ | 22:29 |
| Sicelo | Vajb: what games? | 22:30 |
| Vajb | alexey: im coming to nosturi at 16.1 to see some gig's, if you want you can give that n900 to me then :) | 22:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Sicelo: lemme do a phonecall and paste my version of this list | 22:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so you can do a diff | 22:31 |
| Vajb | Sicelo: lately i play some quiz on qquiz also 2048 and some puzzles on tha puzzle collection | 22:31 |
| alexey | Vajb: I guess Wizzup was the first one to claim it, but you'll be second in queue if something is changed | 22:32 |
| alexey | Vajb: [ot] what's in Nosturi then? | 22:32 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I use lots of Maemo Extras packages (I would struggle without my N900) but they are the main ones. Notice how we all have a terminal at the top of our list :) | 22:32 |
| Vajb | there will be aborted, kataklysm and septicflesh | 22:32 |
| Sicelo | sixwheeledbeast: maybe we're terminal. dead, haha | 22:32 |
| alexey | judging by the names -- way too loud :D | 22:33 |
| Vajb | well, my kind of dance music ;) | 22:33 |
| Vajb | but ok see how it goes with Wizzup and let me know. There is plenty of time till that :) | 22:35 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Sicelo: http://paste.opensuse.org/30283075 | 22:35 |
| Sicelo | oh god! too much difference | 22:39 |
| Sicelo | DocScrutinizer05: you took that after, or during call? | 22:39 |
| *** mp_ has quit IRC | 22:39 | |
| Sicelo | DocScrutinizer05: http://paste.debian.net/361556/ | 22:40 |
| Sicelo | in any case .. it doesn't make much sense to me that it should work when i restart pulseaudio, and then stop later. i could monitor dbus, but this happens in its 'own' time :/ | 22:43 |
| *** krnlyng has quit IRC | 22:45 | |
| Sicelo | tried to look at pulseaudio logging .. seems i might have syslog issues there .. but going to investigate further | 22:45 |
| *** mp_ has joined #maemo | 22:45 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Sicelo: first half during call, second half during speakerphone call | 22:49 |
| Sicelo | ah. i took mine in 'idle' | 22:50 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | in idle it's pretty much useless for diagnosing earpiece problems ;-) | 22:51 |
| Sicelo | i'll do it again when problem manifests itself haha. i've got your output saved on my Desktop | 22:52 |
| Sicelo | right now all is working fine again, so nothing much to see, i guess | 22:52 |
| stryngs | hmm | 22:56 |
| stryngs | Hope u gents dont use secure-is.nl | 22:56 |
| KotCzarny | hmm, can one route audio (music) output to earpiece? | 22:57 |
| Sicelo | i wouldn't want to do it .. not when the speakers are good as they are :) | 22:58 |
| KotCzarny | just for test | 22:58 |
| KotCzarny | otoh, its just pa routing problem not failing contacts etc? | 22:58 |
| *** krnlyng has joined #maemo | 22:59 | |
| Sicelo | KotCzarny: shouldn't be contacts, i guess. otherwise restarting pulseaudio wouldn't have the effect it does | 23:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hmm, I just realize that I had audio problems with stuttering etc recently that I've rarely ever seen before. I wonder if some "bugfix" on PA might not work as expected | 23:15 |
