Langoorsorry for asking, I got my n900 and want to install uboot, its on the power user kernel (came like this) but for uboot i heard you need to be on the nokia vanilla kernel12:48
Langoordowngrade using the app doesn´t work because the repo´s are down12:49
KotCzarny~maemo-repos12:49
infobotmaemo-repos is probably http://wiki.maemo.org/Repository#List_of_Maemo_repositories12:49
KotCzarnybut really, you should be using cssu, not vanilla12:49
Langoorwill that work with the __nokia kernel__ app?12:49
Langoorwill cssu work with uboot?12:50
KotCzarnyyou will have to wait for someone that used it12:51
KotCzarnyin short, uboot works in the way it impersonates kernel to the first stage loader (nolo), and expects kernel files on filesystem12:51
KotCzarnythat's a bit of guessing though12:52
Langoorallright, thanks12:52
KotCzarnybecause i don't know details12:52
KotCzarnyand you should wait for someone that does12:52
LangoorWill do, thanks anyway12:53
sixwheeledbeastkp support uboot you just need uboot for kp from extras.12:53
Langoorkp = power user kernel?12:53
sixwheeledbeastkernel power, yes12:53
sixwheeledbeast~kp12:53
infoboti guess kp is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=9428712:53
sixwheeledbeast"U-Boot with kernel 2.6.28-omap1" and "Linux kernel for power user (boot image for U-Boot)" from extras12:56
Langoorallright! thanks!12:57
*** jonwil has joined #maemo12:58
sixwheeledbeastyou should have cssu and make sure the device is up to date for bugfixes etc13:00
*** eMHa has joined #maemo13:00
sixwheeledbeastCSSU doesn't have a "non-vanilla" kernel only thumb needs the workaround (cssu-kernel or KP).13:02
sixwheeledbeastAlso if you have acquired the device with kp make sure you check if it's been overclocked.13:03
sixwheeledbeast~oc13:03
infobotmethinks oc is an Optical Carrier, An OC1 has 672 channels or 44.736 Mbit/s13:03
sixwheeledbeast~overclock13:03
infobotI overclock in winter to keep dpkg's toes warm.13:03
sixwheeledbeast:(13:04
KotCzarny~listkeys overclock13:04
Langoorallright13:04
infobotFactoid search of 'overclock' by key (3): overclocking ;; cmd: overclock (.*?) ;; overclock.13:04
sixwheeledbeast~overclocking13:04
infobot"OK, listen up.  This is your CPU."  apt drops the CPU into a hot frying pan.  "This is your CPU on overclocking.  Any questions?"13:04
sixwheeledbeast:)13:04
sixwheeledbeastty13:04
Langoor!!!U-Boot with kernel.... break the 3rd party package policy13:05
Langoor:x13:05
*** florian_kc is now known as florian13:06
LangoorI installed the Linux kernel for power user (boot image) first13:07
Langoormight that be a problem13:07
LangoorI´ll get cssu up13:08
Langoorits not even on pr3.113:09
Langooroops13:09
* CatButts patiently waits for his device13:09
KotCzarnydid you ever flash after acquiring the device? (assuming it was bought used)13:09

sixwheeledbeastI would also agree it's better to start again with a fresh device.14:37
sixwheeledbeastYou'll need to be on pr1.3 and then cssu.14:38
CatButtsprX.X14:42
CatButtsthese are firmware versions, right?14:42
sixwheeledbeastpublic release numbers. there are also version numbers14:45
sixwheeledbeastso pr 1.3.1 is aka 21.2011.38-114:46
sixwheeledbeastthis is the last Nokia release, CSSU would be 21.2011.38-1XmaemoX14:47
CatButtsso, CSSU is community maintained firmware14:53
CatButtsand one would need latest official before going CSSU, yes?14:53
KotCzarnycssu is updates, not firmware14:53
KotCzarnyand yes, you need 1.3/1.3.1 on device before updating with cssu14:54
sixwheeledbeast:nod:15:03
sixwheeledbeastit would be nice to have flashable cssu image but I don't believe it's allowed to be distributed like that.15:04
sixwheeledbeast(community) seamless software updates15:04
buZzhighly doubt nokia would sue us over it though :P15:09
KotCzarnyi guess as long no one starts making moneys on it, no one would bother15:09
CatButtsoh hey, I can use Flash on this thing :P15:10
sixwheeledbeastthe thing is you have to define "us". Flash is years out of date and mostly broken for 4 years or more.15:10
CatButtswhat is latest version for Maemo?15:11
buZzits called meego15:12
buZzisnt it?15:12
KotCzarnynope15:12
KotCzarnylast real maemo was fremantle15:12
sixwheeledbeastversion of what?15:12
buZzi thought it was direct continueation15:12
CatButtsFlash Player15:12
KotCzarnyharmattan is who knows what15:12
sixwheeledbeast1115:12
KotCzarnyahm15:12
CatButtsfor Maemo15:12
KotCzarnydisregard what i've written15:12
KotCzarnybuzz: well, for you what i wrote still holds15:13
CatButtsso how broken are we talking?15:13
CatButts*so,15:13
KotCzarnybuzz:15:14
KotCzarnyhttp://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/15:14
sixwheeledbeastFlash needs to die, html5 should be supported going forward.15:14
KotCzarnyswb: html5 is already sabotaged by drm15:15
CatButtsFlash hate is a meme, html5 is kind of a fucky mess15:15
KotCzarnyswb: so good luck with that15:15
CatButts* -kind15:15
KotCzarnyeff left html standardization foundation15:15
* CatButts tones down his kindness15:15
sixwheeledbeastit was actually flash 9 btw.15:16
CatButtsoh, so Maemo gets up to Flash 915:17
CatButts?15:17
sixwheeledbeastoffically15:17
sixwheeledbeastyep15:17
sixwheeledbeastthen it was hacked with hexedit I recall to try and get it working on 10-1215:19
sixwheeledbeastI still think flash is awful no meme intended.15:20
jonwilFlash needs to go away and I hope the "Maemo Leste" effort doesn't spend a single second of time trying to make any of the Flash binaries work.15:20
* CatButts allocates some time and energy to getting flash working in places it shouldn't just to piss off people15:22
CatButtswhat can I say, I have a softspot for Flash :P15:23
jonwilIn principle Flash isn't bad, the problem is that Adobe put too much effort into adding useless crap to it and not enough effort into making Flash secure.15:26
jonwilWhich is why so much malware out there is using Flash as a delivery vector15:26
sixwheeledbeastI don't like what i know of EME but what can you do. EFF had no luck.15:26
jonwilThe argument made by proponents of EME is that DRM on the web is here to stay and if everyone who writes browsers (and makes web sites) agrees on how to implement it, its better for the web as a whole than having every browser maker doing their own thing15:27
CatButtsah, so it's like PDF format providing specification for using your own DRM?15:30
jonwilEME is a standard for what calls a web page uses to talk to a DRM module15:31
KotCzarnyjownwil: lol, it's finished on 'leste' ? sounds like 'me moleste' ;)15:36

CatButts>Open this page in N900 webbrowser. Think a minute if you want to be a tester supporting CSSU bleeding edge, or you rather need a rock solid CSSU, then click on the according Install stable or testing icon at top of this page, or directly on the links in this very sentence.22:01
CatButtsbut22:01
CatButtshow fast is bleeding edge these days22:02
CatButtsif it's slow, it might well be "sorta stable"22:02
sixwheeledbeastI feel that needs a little updating.22:03
sixwheeledbeastas there is CSSU-Devel since then which is "bleeding edge"22:03
sixwheeledbeastnot for general consumption however.22:04
DocScrutinizer05no, cssu-devel was never meant to be a real repo22:04
* CatButts scratches his cat butt22:04
* DocScrutinizer05 waits for maemo-cssu-devel-experimetal in 6 months, if ever -devel replaced -testing, and -testing is new stable, and -stable is new archive22:06
sixwheeledbeastit's for pulling bleeding edge packages whereas testing is not bleeding edge more longer term testing.22:06
DocScrutinizer05and a 9 motnhs later maemo-cssu-devel-experimetal-testing22:07
CatButtsis it a girl or a boy?22:08
sixwheeledbeastPackages need to progress, not create more repos.22:08
DocScrutinizer05cssu-devel was meant for packager testing packaging. Development and deploy of testing packages was histroically via tmo or links to arbitrary download locations on tmo, by getting a *.deb (dpk?) file and installing it via dpkg -i22:09
sixwheeledbeastagreed22:09
DocScrutinizer05to put it plain: *nobody* but the package developer is supposed to ever add maemo-cssu-devel repo to their sources.list22:10
DocScrutinizer05that's why I suggested to replace "free" by the packagename in cssu-devel, so even when somebody adds a sources.list line, it would be for exactly one package only22:12
sixwheeledbeastI like that idea. You are never going to stop people adding stuff to there device.22:13
DocScrutinizer05could be done by a simple little script on repo.m.o22:13
DocScrutinizer05git hook22:14
DocScrutinizer05we don't want people run "update all" in HAM against cssu-devel, do we?22:16
CatButtsI dunno what I want22:17
CatButtsguess I will find out when I get me device22:17
DocScrutinizer05CatButts: you want cssu-testing22:18
CatButtsso, what are the 50 shades of CSSU22:18
CatButts?22:18
DocScrutinizer05http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-ssu-irclog/%23maemo-ssu.2017-10-23.log.html#t2017-10-23T13:54:4422:19
DocScrutinizer05moving to cssu-devel (like happened for maemo-extras[-devel]) won't buy maemo anything except huge headache. The problem is lack of human resources to keep cssu-testing up to date22:24
sixwheeledbeastcssu is stable or testing, no 50 shades22:24
CatButts2 shades of cssu22:25
sixwheeledbeastflavours you could argue22:26
DocScrutinizer05missing HR for keeping cssu-testing maintained can't get solved by introducing a non-maintained repo (devel)22:26
DocScrutinizer05CatButts: we have hints and instructions all over the place. But maybe a useful starting point particularly when you're preparing for receiving your device, might be:22:28
DocScrutinizer05~jrtools22:28
infobotsomebody said jrtools was http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools22:28
sixwheeledbeastI completely agree but I still don't feel cssu-testing is "bleeding edge", more about the wording on the wiki.22:30
DocScrutinizer05ack22:31
CatButtscan I call it "dried blood bleeding-edge">22:31
CatButts*?22:31
sixwheeledbeastbleeding edge: so new that they could have a high risk of being unreliable and lead adopters to incur greater expense in order to make use of them22:33
sixwheeledbeastCatButts: IMO if your new to Maemo then go Stable you can always upgrade to Testing later.22:34
DocScrutinizer05works too22:42
DocScrutinizer05I slightly updated my jrtools22:42
sixwheeledbeastrecommended.install is just muarf Nokia SSU and Nokia apps IIRC?23:00
*** troulouliou_div2 has joined #maemo23:04
DocScrutinizer05I think so, yes23:19
DocScrutinizer05you can look into the file in your browser's preview23:19
DocScrutinizer05http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/et_al/HAM-catalogs/recommended.install23:20
DocScrutinizer05also see http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/et_al/HAM-catalogs/23:26
DocScrutinizer05>>TL;DR: CLICK ON recommended.install - it's a symlink to muarf_all<<23:26
sixwheeledbeastyes I checked the install file.23:28
DocScrutinizer05should it also be mr0?23:29

DocScrutinizer05wow, bash in mr0?23:36
