KotCzarny~flashing14:03
KotCzarny~ping14:03
KotCzarnybot down14:03
dreamerhehe14:04
dreamerhmm. I forgot which tool I was using to do the flashing ..14:04
dreamerah right. 0xFFFF14:05
dreameroh, this thing has uboot. how to get it to go in to flash mode then14:08
KotCzarnypress u on cold boot?14:09
dreamerhmm. goes straight to uboot menu14:11
KotCzarnycold as in taken out battery?14:12
dreameryes14:12
*** LouisA has joined #maemo14:12
KotCzarnyhrm, nolo should always looks for flashing request14:17
KotCzarnybut it's short14:17
KotCzarnymaybe your pc reacts too late, windows?14:17
dreamerheh, no14:18
dreamerdebian14:18
parazyddreamer: https://pub.parazyd.cf/N900/14:19
sicelowhy are you reflashing?14:19
dreamersicelo: because I traded my n900 with parazyd14:19
dreamersince he doesn't need working modem and I do :)14:19
sicelocool14:19
dreamerparazyd: I have RX-51_2009SE_21.2011.38-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin14:19
parazydok, also fine14:20
dreamerbut. this install seems rather empty anyway. you used uboot to load from sdcard I asume14:20
parazydyes14:20
parazydyou can just do a factory reset in maemo14:21
parazydoh also note that it's in developer mode14:21
parazydyou can turn it off with 0xffff14:21
dreamerok14:21
dreamerwell. 0xffff doesn't see the phone yet. uboot is too fast :#14:21
*** spiiroin has joined #maemo14:22
dreameror should it just bypass uboot when you press 'u' ?14:22
parazydi guess so14:22
parazydbut it's in dev mode14:22
parazydso you can just connect the usb and reinsert the battery14:22
parazydwhile holding U14:23
dreamerhmm. thought I tried that14:23
dreamerwhat does dev-mode do exactly?14:23
parazydsee R&D flags when running 0xffff -h14:24
dreamerso, which one is the dev mode?14:27
parazyd0xFFFF -R 0|114:28
parazyd(disable|enable)14:28
dreamerah, derp14:28

parazydPali could help you more when he's around14:44
dreamerok, took about 10 tries hehe14:45
parazydyeah14:46
parazydhere it's weird14:46
parazydi just flashed uboot, no /etc/bootmenu stuff :/14:46
* dreamer doesn't know anything about uboot :#14:47
dreamerok, time to put my backup back14:47
*** florian_kc has joined #maemo14:51
bencohparazyd: isn't it in a separate package?14:52
bencoh(iirc it is)14:52
parazydi don't remember14:53
parazydu-boot-for-power-kernel?14:53
bencohu-boot-tools I think14:54
parazydi got that one14:54
bencohI have u-boot-flasher and u-boot-tools here14:54
parazydit's just u-boot-update-bootmenu, and gen-combined14:54
parazydand mkimage14:55
parazydbut no /etc, or /boot files14:55
parazydbah, this used to work14:55
bencohstrange14:55
*** povbot has joined #maemo15:23
bencohI don't really remember but maybe you have to manually create /etc/bootmenu.d (?)15:28
sicelothat dir is created by bootmenu at install time, at least according to `dpkg -L bootmenu`15:58
*** sunshavi has joined #maemo16:02
bencohbut I don't have bootmenu16:04

Enrico_MenottiHello. I'm still trying to understand how gpio keys are read and converted into actions. I found out where the Linux codes corresponding to the keys are defined (in the dts). I found out where the numeric values of these Linux codes are defined (in a certain header file, included in the dts). I found out where the Linux codes for standard (keyboard) keys are translated to key names (/usr/share/X11/xkb/keycodes/xfree86),20:48
Enrico_Menotti to be used in the symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-51 file to define the corresponding symbols.20:48
bencoh:)20:49
Enrico_MenottiNow I'm able to do (more or less) what I want with std keys, but not with the gpio. These produce strange symbols at login; after login, they do not work (just the volume keys, which correspond to f7 and f8, are mapped to the tilde).20:49
Enrico_MenottiIt may clearly be that the console is only listening to events from the keyboard and not from gpio keys; however, I don't understand why at login I get the strange symbols.20:50
bencohby login you mean console login (spawned by getty or equivalent) on ttyX?20:53
Enrico_MenottiYes.20:53
Enrico_Menottibencoh A completely different topic: I have read some discussion today between you and parazyd about problems with bootmenus in u-boot, and trying to boot from sd card, am I right? Maybe I cannot say anything you do not know, but I had similar problems at the beginning of my adventure with the n900, and I found out how to boot from sd (thanks to Pali).20:56
*** jskarvad has quit IRC20:58
*** florian has joined #maemo21:04
parazydbencoh: i'll give it a shot21:13
parazydEnrico_Menotti: i'm not trying to boot from sdcard, but i'm trying to find the files that are mentioned in Pali's uboot thread21:13
bencohEnrico_Menotti: looks like someone had the very same question on talk.maemo.org recently, for the same purpose (devuan), so your experience might help :)21:16
*** Pali has quit IRC21:28
*** esaym153 has joined #maemo21:30
Enrico_Menottibencoh Can you link me to that question?21:36
bencohhttp://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1527271#post152727121:39
bencohactually you could detail what works for you and what you had to configure as well21:40
Enrico_MenottiYes, DocScrutinizer05 asked me to do that. I should sit down and write what I have been doing - up to now, since I did not know what I could even do, I did not make notes, so it's all around in websites, opened windows in my computer, and my mind. :)21:45
Enrico_MenottiOn the thread you just linked here, I see they have some difficulties with the wifi. Mine works perfectly.21:45
Enrico_MenottiI had been reading here: https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse.21:47
Enrico_MenottiI followed the instructions about wpa_supplicant and wpa-psk.21:47
Enrico_MenottiOn the other hand, up to now I didn't use u-boot for Devuan. I'm still experimenting by uploading the kernel image by Nokia's flasher, booting it, and passing it as init parameter the location of the root file system.21:49
raveloEnrico_Menotti, would be nice21:56
ravelowhen I have time I want to try that too one day...21:56
Enrico_MenottiOk.21:56

bencohEnrico_Menotti: actually that's not too bad a way of trying devuan without any modification to the flash22:14
bencohquite a nice one actually22:14
DocScrutinizer05well, it doesn't yield much benefit over using uBoot22:16
raveloDocScrutinizer05, there you are ;)22:17
DocScrutinizer05unless you'd consider uBoot itself a risky thing, which I think it usn't after 6 years of getting tested22:17
