pkill9is it possible to put .desktop files in .local/share/applications/hildon on the desktop? It doesn't appear in the menu for adding shortcuts to the desktop when in there, but it does appear in that menu when the .desktop file is in /usr/share/applications/hildon01:08

ilewWizzup: If you can't install the latest curl first via apt then install curl libcurl3 via dpkg using the debs from http://repository.maemo.org/community-testing/pool/fremantle/free/c/curl/09:47
Wizzupisn't the problem that the new libcurl was not build for thumb as well?09:50
bencohshouldn't you have both repositories in place with some pinning/preference configuration when using thumb?09:51
bencoh(both -testing and -thumb)09:51
WizzupI never did that before09:51
WizzupSo that'd be a new thing09:52
bencohI use neither of them, so I'm basically asking09:52
ilewAren't higher versions in test installed over thumb packages?09:52
Wizzupilew: I think that's the problem here. I haven't seen what the new version of curl is, but I wrote the exact dep error in here09:52
Wizzup11:59 < Wizzup> Unable to update 'Maemo 5 Community SSU Package'. Conflict with application packages: curl (7.26.0-1maemo1+0cssu1+thumb1)09:52
ilewWizzup: I think you'll get the same error if you have the non-thumb curl installed before the update.09:54
WizzupWeird09:54
ilewWizzup: Because curl has a dependency on libcurl3 and mp-freemantle-community-pr has a dependency on libcurl3 but not curl.09:54
Wizzupmm, so I can remove curl perhaps.09:55
ilewBut it might try to remove libcurl3 with it?09:55
WizzupPerhaps, yeah.10:02
ilewWizzup: I'll reflash my n900 and try to get the same conflict.10:07
Wizzuplet me know if you need more info from me10:14
WizzupI'll mention the repos I have activated in a bit, have to do something first10:14

VajbWizzup: i have same error, but without thumb part10:37
Vajband obviously i don't have thumb installed10:37
ilewVajb: Can you update curl before you install CSSU?10:37
Vajbi was planning to try and update curl via apt during weekend10:37
Vajbdidn't try yet, but apt shows there is newer version of curl to be installed10:38
Vajbthink i'll install backupmenu first still :)10:38

*** japa-fi has quit IRC11:01
ilewWizzup: Actually try running 'dpkg -r --force-depends curl'11:07
ilewThat will remove curl but keep libcurl3 installed still.11:09

pkill9would this be a good thing to have in the n900 to reduce chance of usb breaking? https://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-Lightning-Magnetic-charging-transfer/dp/B074SK7SLG?psc=1&SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&tag=duc08-21&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B074SK7SLG20:47
pkill9sorry for large link20:47
pkill9smaller link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-Lightning-Magnetic-charging-transfer/dp/B074SK7SLG20:48
CatButtshmmmmmm20:48
CatButtsI'd say yes20:48
pkill9think i might get some20:49
CatButtsI already did the thing involving lotsa solder, though :P20:49
pkill9ah hehe20:49
pkill9i don't wanna risk soldering, i think i need a soldering iron witha  finer point anyway if i was to fix the usb port ont he n90020:50
KotCzarnypkill9: just plug/unplug the usb proper and you will never have usb port problem20:50
CatButtsI used my clunky 100W one20:50
*** peetah has quit IRC20:50
KotCzarnyproper being 'no wiggling, no bending'20:50
CatButtsyou need to get camera flex cable out of the way20:50
pkill9yeah, i do make sure to be careful when unplugging20:50
pkill9and plugging20:50
pkill9i just wanna reduce risk as much as possible, n900s are becoming rarer i think :P20:51
KotCzarnyget few spares, they are cheap, problem solved :P20:51
pkill9true :p20:52

DocScrutinizer05~literal usb-unplug21:15
infobot"usb-unplug" is "http://maemo.cloud-7.de/share-service/20140721_002.mp4"21:15
DocScrutinizer05((<CatButts> what's a convenient way to list applications)) do a maemo-backup, then inspect the tarball backup file, it has a list of apps to re-install on restore21:17
DocScrutinizer05not as straight as "list to console" but works21:18
DocScrutinizer05mc helps a lot21:18
DocScrutinizer05mc can browse into tarballs21:19

Vajbhey. I got my bluetooth gamepad connected and buttonpresses are registered when i do "cat /dev/input/js0" but drnoksnes is still not seeing it. So obviously i need to tweak some more21:55
Vajbdo i need to link that said js0 to some event or what should i do?21:55
KotCzarnymore likely you need to tell the app where your joy is21:55
Vajbcan i link it to event1 which is already linked to keyboard?21:56
Vajbi guess not, but worth to ask21:56
*** florian has joined #maemo21:56
VajbKotCzarny: i believe that is the case, but it seems kinda tricky to find correct place to search for21:57
KotCzarnyhttps://talk.maemo.org/archive/index.php/t-43050.html21:57
KotCzarnyyeah, seems it needs some configuration21:57
KotCzarnythis example probably maps js to kb input21:58
Vajbhmm is it safe to link two devices to same event?22:00
KotCzarnysure22:00
KotCzarnyas long you dont sit on the controller and press the buttons uncontrollably22:00
KotCzarnyon pc the usual way to map js for games was joy2key app22:01
Vajbln whines that event exists already22:03
Vajbln -s js0 event422:05
KotCzarnyahm22:05
KotCzarnyno, not that event22:05
Vajberr 122:05
Vajbit claims ln: file exists22:05
KotCzarnyi mean, i thought you have used to map js0 to kb events22:06
Vajbnope22:06
KotCzarnydoes drsnoksnes support js0 interface?22:07
Vajbi don't know22:07
KotCzarnytry running it with -h or --help param22:07
KotCzarnyor checking manual page22:07
Vajbthere is only keyboard option22:07
KotCzarnythen there is high chance you need app to map js0 into kb events22:08
KotCzarnyusually using some app22:09
KotCzarnycheck if joy2key is available in repos22:09
KotCzarnyhttps://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=7430322:10
Vajbdoesn't seem to be in repos22:10
KotCzarnylets see if it builds in sb22:14
KotCzarny-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23380 Nov 30 20:14 joy2key_1.6.3-1_armel.deb22:14
KotCzarnywant it?22:14
KotCzarny:)22:14
KotCzarnyhttps://31.135.195.151:20281/n900/joy2key_1.6.3-1_armel.deb22:18
KotCzarnycompiled in sb without any changes22:18
KotCzarnyso you can build yourself using files from https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/joy2key or grab my deb22:19
KotCzarnyi didnt remove docs because they are tiny and useful22:19
Vajboh, and it should just work out of the box then? :)22:21
KotCzarnywell, it would still require you to configure it to map presses to kb codes22:21
KotCzarnybut yeah, most likely22:21
KotCzarnyotoh might be useful to remotely control your n900 with gamepad ;)22:21
KotCzarnyone part where it could fail would be multi key presses, but up for you to test22:22
Vajbhey maybe something that would work with oscp as well :)22:23
*** pagurus has joined #maemo22:23
KotCzarnyoscp has plethora of methods to control it22:23
KotCzarnyone could easily write remote app that would read js0/kb and send commands to oscp22:24
Vajbhehe ham says it is incompatible22:30
KotCzarnyhuh? built in sdk o.o22:30
KotCzarnywhere's my n900..22:31
* CatButts tries it on his phone that he's about to flash, anyway22:31
KotCzarnyworked fine with dpkg -i22:32
CatButtsgui installer doesn't like it22:33
CatButts*ham22:33
KotCzarnyprobably missing some maemo specific deb fields22:33
KotCzarnyand/or using wrong pkg category22:34
Vajbi see22:34
Vajbhmm also noticed that event4 got created at the same time js0 connects22:34
Wizzupthis should work with python2.5 if you use the compat mode - https://github.com/MerlijnWajer/uinput-mapper22:35
WizzupI had it packaged for maemo at some point, but I don't know where.22:35
KotCzarny Section: x1122:36
KotCzarnymight be the reason ham dislikes it22:36
KotCzarnyanyway, since it doesnt requires anything special you might just go with dpkg -i22:36
KotCzarnyin this case22:36
KotCzarnyor even unpack the binary and copy to /usr/local/bin or something22:37

CatButtsdoes this have anything to do with recent update, or did I botch something up?23:15
KotCzarnyyou did botch something23:15
CatButtsI reflashed combined23:16
*** Pali has joined #maemo23:16
CatButtsadded muarf_all23:16
DocScrutinizer05VSSU isn't included in any of the standrad repos, since it's a repo of its own23:17
DocScrutinizer05CSSU even23:17
DocScrutinizer05VSSU enabler istalls the CSSU repo23:17
DocScrutinizer05damn, CSSU23:17
CatButtsthe .install file comes with this new repo23:18
DocScrutinizer05and you install CSSU-enabler by one-click on ~CSSU23:18
CatButtsI did, from maemo wiki23:18
DocScrutinizer05obviously not, after full flash23:18
DocScrutinizer05[2017-11-30 Thu 22:16:34] <CatButts> I reflashed combined23:19
DocScrutinizer05[2017-11-30 Thu 22:16:43] <CatButts> added muarf_all23:19
DocScrutinizer05now fo and install CSSU23:19
DocScrutinizer05go*23:19
CatButtsI am not sure where you are taking me23:21
CatButtsdo I need to reflash emmc as well?23:21
*** phlixi has quit IRC23:21
CatButtsare you saying I reflashed combined AFTER trying to install CSSU?23:21
DocScrutinizer05you flashed rootfs and this nuked sources.list(.d/*)23:21
CatButtsyes23:22
DocScrutinizer05so for whatever reason you want to upgrade cssu-enabler, it's not found since the CSSU repo is not in spources.list23:22
CatButtsthen I added muarf all, then tried one-click install file23:22
*** Trizt has quit IRC23:23
DocScrutinizer05or did you try to one-click install CSSU when that error popped up?23:23
CatButts^yes23:24

DocScrutinizer05hmmm, I also noticed something very strange: some "os-upgrade"  package23:24
CatButtsdidn't try release23:24

DocScrutinizer05did somebody rename some package on CSSU-T?23:25

*** cpt_nemo has quit IRC23:38
KotCzarnynot to mention memory limited23:38
pkill9yeah, i guess a separate device like a raspberry pi would be better23:40
DocScrutinizer05hmm I guess "Operating System" only shows with special redpill settings in HAM23:40
DocScrutinizer05there's this DisplayPort or whatever it's called23:41
DocScrutinizer05it *should* work for text and graphics but for sure will suck badly on refresh rate for video23:42
DocScrutinizer05and you'd need a maemo compiled driver for it23:42

pkill9seriously tho, $25?? that's so cheap for everything it has23:46
KotCzarnyconsider boards with emmc23:46
KotCzarny30-50MB/s isnt bad23:46
KotCzarnymuch better than sd (which is limited to 22MB/s max)23:46
KotCzarnybest deal is orange pi pc +2e23:46
KotCzarny16gb emmc, 2gb ram23:47
KotCzarnyetc23:47
KotCzarnystill, they are quite weak for the desktop usage23:47
KotCzarnygood for android toys, movie players, linux home servers etc23:47
pkill9yeah23:47
pkill9that's what i was thinking of it for23:48
KotCzarnyyou can also get cheap A33 based tablet for ~30-40usd23:48
pkill9A33 is CPU?23:48

KotCzarnyhmm23:57
KotCzarnytry -x11 switch?23:57
Vajbi guess -X is not valid argument in maemo or i need something else23:57
KotCzarnyerm -X23:57
