| Wikiwide | Dust... Does Modest have a limit on Draft-message length somewhere? Number of lines or something? Because I have the unfortunate task of forwarding a very long email, and editing it before clicking 'Send' (removing personal information from text), which means going through all the text (and I remove excessive > breaklines on the way, too, given how they make paragraphs less readable). | 02:49 |

| KotCzarny | swap screen? cable? | 14:13 |
| Wikiwide | And, excessive breaklines in email may have been generated by sender (Turnitin), not by Modest. Though, it doesn't negate the problem with scrolling very long draft in Modest. | 14:13 |
| Wikiwide | KotCzarny: keyboard backlight too, not just notification light. And, it was somehow resolved before, without changing the hardware. | 14:15 |
| Wikiwide | Either it is come-and-go problem, or it is file damage from all these out-of-control shutdowns (aka dying battery?) | 14:16 |
| Wikiwide | /me curses again lack of GUI for password management in MicroB; surely, there has to be a better way than python2.7-ing firefox_decrypt.py ? | 14:17 |
| Wikiwide | Actually, if I understood python better, it might have been possible to rewrite the py file to work with python2.5, and save the trouble of installing python2.7? | 14:19 |
| Wikiwide | I am quite irritable. But at least, "only" 97% of rootfs are full, even after installing python2.7 . So, pdf reader and other things should work. | 14:22 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | buZz: you could check the result instead of checking the binary creating results: get a bright flashlight, place it to the ALS (upper left corner in landscape) for as long as it takes to dim the screen and shut off kbd backlight (with brighness set at 4 bars, won't ever happen at 5 bars. a 15s should suffice in this case), then without removing flashlight lock the screen with sliding lockswitch, check the brightness of beathing indicator | 18:58 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | light - is it normal brightness or very very dim (which is the bug I fixed) | 18:58 |
| buZz | what problem of -mine- is that analyzing? | 18:59 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | yup, looks correct | 19:06 |
| freemangordon | ok, will fix it, though not today | 19:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | :-) | 19:08 |
| freemangordon | I am waiting for guests to come home, so... :) | 19:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | with >100lux (https://github.com/community-ssu/mce/blob/master/modules/filter-brightness-als.h#L180) the brightness switches to 0, and it switches back to 5 on <64lux | 19:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or is it >1000lux? | 19:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | NFC, anyway the patch works | 19:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | aah wait, the tupels are defining a threshold incl hysteresis, not a range | 19:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so (assuming a }, { 3, 5, 0, 0, 0, 0 } line) we would run LED at 0 up to 64lux, at 5 up to 1000lux, and at 0 over 1000lux. dimming down again, we would switch back to 5 at 100lux and to 3 at 32lux | 19:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | each tuple defines the thresholds for downward and upword, for one ","-border in { 5, 5, 0, 0, 0, 0 } | 19:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | since we got two valif such tuples, we need *3* meaningful brightness levels in that { 5, 5, 0, 0, 0, 0 } | 19:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so (assuming a }, { 3, 5, 0, 0, 0, 0 } line) we would run LED at **3** up to 64lux, at 5 up to 1000lux, and at 0 over 1000lux. dimming down again, we would switch back to 5 at 100lux and to 3 at 32lux | 19:21 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | (sorry for the typo) | 19:21 |

| ff__ | wikiwide, from root try, rmmod leds_lp5523 | 20:47 |
| ff__ | modprobe leds_lp5523 | 20:47 |
| ff__ | and then this: cat /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-2/2-0032/selftest should blink all leds and print OK in command line | 20:48 |
| *** drcode has joined #maemo | 20:49 | |
| *** cyteen has joined #maemo | 20:49 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you won't see such blinking | 21:03 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | it's way too short to usually get noticed | 21:03 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ooh, I stand corrected, after testing it | 21:05 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | nice way to check for operational hardwate with minimal software involvement | 21:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hardware* | 21:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | selftest is a LP5523-internal hw function | 21:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ff__: nice catch | 21:10 |
| ff__ | yes, it should gives some additional information if something doesn't work | 21:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yep, the chip checks if each of the LEDs draws correct current at correct voltage | 21:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so it can detect all hw defects except a LED simply not emitting photons when operating | 21:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | don't know if that's even possible for a LED die | 21:13 |
| ff__ | by the way, is it possible indicate autofocus & whitebalance during record through gstreamer? | 21:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no idea | 21:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I _think_ both are managed by a blob shared lib | 21:17 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | maybe I'm mistaken and the lib isn't a blob | 21:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or it has a documented API at least, where you can get that info from | 21:19 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | camera-ui2 aka nicocam has a focum length indicator, so the v4l2 stuff must provide it | 21:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | focus* | 21:20 |
| ff__ | yes, focus adjusting is done | 21:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | https://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/legacy/video4linux/API/V4L2_API/spec-single/v4l2.html maybe helps. No idea whatsoever about whitebal | 21:22 |
| ff__ | v4l2src has GstColorBalance | 21:24 |
| ff__ | but don't know how to use it | 21:24 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | needs at least 2 (prolly dimensionless) ints, I'd guess | 21:27 |
| *** pagurus has joined #maemo | 21:29 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | how whitebalance works internally is a mystery to me. It's less mysterious when the picture has all colors so you could adjust to maje a median or average or whatever fit a neutral point. But what when you shoot a tree format-filling? all just green, what's the whitebalance with that? | 21:29 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | s/maje/make/ | 21:30 |
| infobot | DocScrutinizer05 meant: how whitebalance works internally is a mystery to me. It's less mysterious when the picture has all colors so you could adjust to make a median or average or whatever fit a neutral point. But what when you shoot a tree format-filling? all just green, what... | 21:30 |
| ff__ | it adds some error probably, camerabin in gstreamer does the job, but not in v4l2src | 21:32 |
| ff__ | *but not with v4l2src | 21:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and that's exactly the sekrit knowledge camera manufs (also the one of N900 camera) add to their product in form of closed blob binaries aka libs which are never getting disclosed since they are company asset algorithms | 21:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | recent cryPhone camera advertised by apple as "the best camera ever" or somesuch - all of that is in those libs, none in the mere hardware | 21:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Sony compactcam ultrafast autofocus: software | 21:35 |
| ff__ | fluid lens are fun :) | 21:37 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hehe yes, but not exactly high quality | 21:37 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | neither suitable for decent aperture size | 21:38 |
| ff__ | and how speed performace with it? | 21:38 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hm? I think that's their main advantage - mere speed | 21:39 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | plus no mechanics at all | 21:39 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | apply more voltage, make drop mor special | 21:39 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | works in milliseconds | 21:40 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | damn!! | 21:40 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | apply more voltage, make drop more spherical | 21:40 |
| ff__ | I didn't know that liquid lens has pretty poor quality | 21:40 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | it's a sperical lens | 21:41 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | of max a few millimeters diameter | 21:41 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | prolly more like 1 or 2 mm | 21:41 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | for a spherical lens it's maybe perfect | 21:42 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but high class multi-lens setups use surprisingly complex lens shapes | 21:42 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | to reduce color aberration etc | 21:43 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_aberration#/media/File:Lens6b-en.svg achromatic doublet - can't be done that way with a liquid lens for the convex part since the concave part needs matching properties | 22:21 |
| ff__ | so that's not for professional use, maybe for some action use | 22:26 |
| ff__ | have we uart or spi interface somwhere inside n900? | 22:27 |
| ff__ | second e-ink screen would be helpful, like that one http://waveshare.com/wiki/4.3inch_e-Paper_UART_Module | 22:29 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | UART yes. SPI too but not available to users | 22:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | UART though is on testpoints: console | 22:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | maybe you want hackerbus? ;-) | 22:57 |

| ff__ | yes, read this for now http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Hardware_Hacking | 23:00 |
| ff__ | connect this e-ink to n900 (while it has exposed UART) seems to possible | 23:01 |
| ff__ | *seems to be possible | 23:01 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yes, possible | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you need more than just UART though: power, and power control | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and levelshifter for UART | 23:08 |
| ff__ | you are right | 23:09 |
| ff__ | how to talk through this UART? | 23:10 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | err, prolly just use /dev/tty0 or somesuch | 23:10 |
| ff__ | ok, J2000 connectors under battery and /dev/ttyS0 | 23:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | without warranties, but yes :-) | 23:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the voltage level is still a mystery, but I'd recommend assuming 1V8 | 23:21 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | as that's the level expected according to all datasheets and other docs available | 23:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | see my latest edit >> Pin number: AH8, name: etk_d15/sdti_txd3 (serial data out, system trace messages); power domain: vdds 1.8V [1] voltage level actually seen is a miracle<< | 23:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you might want to ask a kernel hacker ( freemangordon?) for details about etk_d15/sdti_txd3 | 23:24 |
| *** cyteen has quit IRC | 23:24 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | maybe he could even completely falsify what I found out regarding that stuff | 23:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | tbh it makes no sense to me | 23:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | http://wstaw.org/m/2017/06/05/plasma-desktopr22054.png looks like AH7 but that makes no sense at all, and probably it's AH8. Then there's also http://wstaw.org/m/2017/06/05/plasma-desktopL22054.png which must be OVP and thus irrelevant, and http://wstaw.org/m/2017/06/05/plasma-desktopw22054.png which probably is some phantom current via a number of nearby pads, so a secondary false positive | 23:34 |

| ff__ | make screenshot, convert it to gray4 (2bpp), add 800x120 pixels and send it to the module (need sniff what EPSCOMM.exe sends first, some init etc) | 23:48 |
| ff__ | I think for white / black on n900 it should be nice visible on this 2bpp e-ink, but for colourful, more gradient, that gray4 is too small | 23:51 |
