KotCzarnymaxd: nokia or m$ phones?08:14

Sicelodoes anyone know if the ubuntu phones let you boot some other distro?09:10
MaxdamantusNoone else bidded for it, so I won with NZ$2.09:13
KotCzarnylol09:14
KotCzarnygood deal09:14
MaxdamantusTwice the reserve price.09:16
KotCzarnyhehe09:16
KotCzarnyi bet shipping is more than the bid price09:16
MaxdamantusIt's the same seller as the N900, so it will probably be nothing.09:17
KotCzarny:)09:17
KotCzarnyeven better deal then09:17
KotCzarnyport maemo to it ;)09:18
MaxdamantusI'm getting the N900 so I don't have to use Maemo.09:18

OksanaaIs faxing theoretically possible with Nokia N900? Like, with efax or something, switching N900 to 2G for duration of fax sending maybe? https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=36905&page=213:20

DocScrutinizer05Oksanaa: (('hijack' phonecall)) sure, you just need to do the inverse of what e.g. recaller does14:37
DocScrutinizer05fax over GSM is pretty much impossible. for (HS)CSD there was a fax and a data service flag. GPRS doesn't support any such fax sending anymore. AFAIK N900 BB5 modem doesn't support (HS)CSD, even *if* your carrier would still offer it14:40
OksanaaOkay, is there a single xterminal line for recaller's action? Probably yes, but I have only orecchiette installed14:41
OksanaaWould Neo900 modem be even less likely to support fax sending?14:41
DocScrutinizer05your best bet to send a fax from N900 is to upload a pdf to a (SIP)provider who offers fax sending14:42
DocScrutinizer05I admit I haven't even checked if the P*S8 modems still support HSCSD14:42
OksanaaIt would require Internet, and then email would be easier than fax (I think)14:42
OksanaaWould be nice to check, given that some cellular providers do still (hopefully) offer fax14:43
DocScrutinizer05you need to check if the offer HSCSD dialout14:44
OksanaaI have seen video call (cellular14:44
Oksanaaas an option with my provider, at least14:44
DocScrutinizer05basically HSCSD is a remote RS232 wire to a Hayes modem with fax function at carrier's exchange14:45
OksanaaAnd 3G video calls are mostly out-of-date, too. So I am hoping that they offer Fax, too14:45
*** Milhouse has quit IRC14:45
DocScrutinizer05try "ATD<your landline number>" (without ; at end)14:46
DocScrutinizer05when the call is made by a modem and you hear a beep when picking up the call, you actually can do HSCSD14:47
OksanaaNo landline. But can check with worklandline14:47
DocScrutinizer05but again, afaik N900 doesn't support that14:48
DocScrutinizer05N900 will always initiate a voice connection on ATD14:48
OksanaaWhere do I type this low-level modem command? Not-in-X-Term-directly, for sure.14:49
* Oksanaa does not remember where on wiki.maemo.org were modem commands described14:50
DocScrutinizer05quote from PHS8: >>The Modem interface is intended particularly for circuit and packet switched transmission (HSDPA, GPRSCSD). << so yes, that sounds like Circuit Switched Data14:50
DocScrutinizer05pnatd14:51
DocScrutinizer05you need to close the xterm to end pnatd14:51
DocScrutinizer05(or killall pnatd in another shell)14:51
DocScrutinizer05<PLS8 quote> The AT^SRTC read command returns the currently set ring tone melody <number> and ring tone volume <vol- ume> for the incoming <event>s voice call, CSD call and SMS.</>14:56
DocScrutinizer05you _need_ a dedicated data number different to your voicecall number for inbound CSD calls (receive FAX)14:57
DocScrutinizer05though CSD and FAX are two separate though similar services14:58
DocScrutinizer05lemme check if P*S8 actually supports FAX14:58
*** Milhouse has joined #maemo14:59
DocScrutinizer05nope   http://wstaw.org/m/2016/02/05/plasma-desktopUe3616.png15:00
DocScrutinizer05Oksanaa: ideally you use T38 (http://www.3cx.com/pbx/t38/) with a app on the phone and a SIP provider that supports it15:04
DocScrutinizer05or you actually just pull a pdf into the drop area on your SIP provider's "send fax" webpage15:08
OksanaaPHS8-P: no fax; others? Hmm, if 3G video calls, and FMMS too, send images, then it should be possible to cellular-send an image, and have a gateway fax it to fax?15:09
OksanaaOr, simpler: SMS-to-fax gateway15:09
DocScrutinizer05sure thing15:09
DocScrutinizer05see above15:09
* Oksanaa still thinks that espeak-hijacking would be absurdly useful. Unless bone-conduction headset allows to speak silently?15:10
jonwilWhy Fax is still a thing in 2016 I will never understand15:11
DocScrutinizer05http://wstaw.org/m/2016/02/05/plasma-desktopVP3616.png15:12
jonwilIts one of those technologies that seems to hang on despite being obsolete years ago :)15:12
OksanaaBecause SMS is short and expensive. Same for FMMS15:12
DocScrutinizer05because FAX is the only thing that has a minimum sender authentication by phone number15:13
jonwilSMS doesn't replace fax, what replaces fax is email and IM and sending things over the internet15:13
DocScrutinizer05also FAX is sync, so you get in implicit reception confirmation, which you print to a so called send report15:14
jonwilcaller ID is easy to spoof15:14
DocScrutinizer05such send protocol is a first evidence you actually sent the FAX, and the receiver has to prove he didn't receive it15:15
Oksanaacellular internet could be the replacement... but some place are absurdly insistent on phone-calls-not-emails-thank-you. Not even SMS.15:15
jonwilYeah fax i s still useful in cases where you need to sign something and send it back fast15:15
DocScrutinizer05also it's actually an advantage that a FAX costs fees for the phonecall connection. This way FAX never seen such an amount of abuse by SPAM like e.g. email did15:18
OksanaaHmm, not sure how, but my google voice has SMS-to-email spam15:19
OksanaaNot much, but two unsolicited spams in last week. Did Google Voice leak my gv number somewhere?15:20
DocScrutinizer05and it's inherently slow which helps for the same15:23
*** msava has quit IRC15:24
*** msava has joined #maemo15:27
DocScrutinizer05generally FAX is cheaper than a simple letter and almost as reliable as a registered mail15:28
DocScrutinizer05actually when you send the FAX via a service like http://wstaw.org/m/2016/02/05/plasma-desktopVP3616.png then it's even better than a registered mail, since you can prove *what* you've sent15:30
DocScrutinizer05and when15:30

freemangordonPali: hi! finally onenand mystery is solved :). Could you remind me what I was supposed to do re system revision?19:28
Palifreemangordon: hi! yes, got email19:29
freemangordonI know, I put you in cc :)19:29
freemangordonfor the patch that is19:29
Palisystem revision: set it in rx51 code which call save_atags()19:29
freemangordonit is passed by nolo as well?19:30
freemangordonPali: ok, besides sysrev, do we have something else minor to fix?19:31
Paliyes it is in one ATAG19:31
Paliso you need to parse it in code around save_atags() and set global variable system_rev (or how it is called)19:32
freemangordonok19:32
Palifreemangordon: there is anther minor... get cpu freq values from kernel-power and add them to n900 DTS file19:32
*** Venusaur has quit IRC19:33
Palinow in DT booted kernel cpu freqs can be specified in DTS per board19:33
freemangordonPali: I doubt maintainers will alow us to put OC freqs there19:33
freemangordon:)19:33
Paliat least those non OC freq19:33
Palithey are different from generic omap319:33
Palisee patches in linux-n900 which fix that for legacy board code19:34
freemangordonok, will se what can I do about that19:34
freemangordonok19:34
PaliI CCed one email about it19:34
freemangordonPali: ok, will find it when I come to it19:34
*** xelo has quit IRC19:50
freemangordonPali: which tag do we want,  ATAG_REVISION?19:53
Palifreemangordon: yes19:56
freemangordonok19:56
freemangordonPali: "Revision: 0012" in qemu, ok?19:59
Paliyes19:59
freemangordonPali: wanna send that patch for me, I won;t have time to do it now?20:00
Palicurrently I do not have time...20:01
freemangordonok, will send it when I have time then20:01
