freemangordonmerlin1991: Though it was Pali to request it, in case you're interested, we have a fully functional libcal FOSS replacement ;) https://gitorious.org/cal/cal.01:09
* freemangordon wonders why Pali needs it01:10
jon_yfreemangordon: what was the procedure to charge an n900 with a dead battery again?01:10
jon_ywhat was it called?01:10
keriojon_y: flatbat recover01:10
kerio~flatbat_recover01:11
jon_yyes thanks01:11
kerio~flatbat01:11
kerio~flatbatrecover01:11
infobotRemove battery for 1 minute. Insert battery. Plug powered Nokia wallcharger to device. Watch steady amber. Let sit and charge. Do NOT try to boot. After 30 min, you got either a) a booted up N900, b) flashing amber which means you can boot, c) steady amber going off - in this case start over again with ~flatbatrecover01:11
freemangordonhmm, never know it01:11
jon_yawesome thanks guys, I needed that01:11
* jon_y needs a new battery too01:11
freemangordon(~flatbat, not the procedure :D )01:11
ShadowJKThe new nokia bl-5j aren't bad01:13
ShadowJK(the old ones were pretty bad)01:13
jon_ymy battery lasts 3 days at most01:16
jon_ythat is with minimal usage01:17
jon_yold battery is old, same old battery when I got the phone01:17
jon_yby powered Nokia wallcharger, means a dedicated charger? and not any USB slots?01:18

freemangordonPali: CAL lib is ready, now what?16:42
freemangordonboth read/write16:42
freemangordonPali: https://gitorious.org/cal/cal16:43
Palifreemangordon, ok16:45
freemangordonPali: feel free to package it :D16:55
Palifreemangordon, ok :-)16:55
freemangordon(if needed)16:55
Palinow I'm trying to solve this problem, but without luck :-( https://www.spoj.pl/problems/NETADMIN/16:56
PaliI will look at cal later...16:56
luffreemangordon: how low is the bluez-4.99 on your todo? I'm working on stabilization of bluez as tons of memleaks and wrong pointer operations fixed in git ....16:56
merlin1991btw luf how ready is obdex by now?17:14
merlin1991in other words should I package the current git for the new -testing?17:14
lufmerlin1991: I think you can. No bug report and several fixes.17:15
lufmerlin1991: Please don't forgot to include also librtcom-eventlogger1-async (fixed dependency).17:16
lufmerlin1991: when do you want to realease the new -testing?17:20
*** FlameReaper has joined #maemo-ssu17:40
freemangordonluf: hmm, is bluez ready for prime-time? I mean is it stabel enough so I can put it on my primary device?17:43
freemangordonas I can't think on other way to test it17:43
luffreemangordon: Hmmm it should be ok. But better to wait after I finish with bugfixing (I'm at number around 90 now).17:46
freemangordonluf: ok. As I actually use BT on my everyday n900 often (HF connected all day long) I will wait you to gimme a green light17:48
luffreemangordon: Keep in mind that even green light should makes you a trouble ;)17:49

merlin1991we've reach critical mass regarding updated packages and it's about time stuff goes into the wild again :)18:14

kerioi'm running a buggy bluez? D:19:38
keriono, you silly povbot, i'm talking about bluez19:38
merlin1991kerio: nope.jpg19:43
merlin1991er well yes if you installed it by hand19:44
merlin1991otherwise no19:44
keriomerlin1991: of course i did19:45

*** dhbiker has quit IRC20:02
*** luf has joined #maemo-ssu20:17
lufkerio: unfortunately yes. 90 is now the count of patches for bluez-4.99.20:19
kerioluf: i trusted you!20:20
kerioalso gimme a new binary plskthx20:20
lufkerio: no new binary yet.20:20

freemangordonluf: I am well aware of that, but I prefer to test *after* there are no known regressions :P20:49
keriofreemangordon: pff, coward20:50
kerioluf: to be fair i had to restart bluetoothd in a couple of occasions20:50
kerioall related to A2DP in weird conditions20:50
keriolike A2DP during wifi monitor mode20:51
luffreemangordon: someone has to find the regressions first ;)21:05
lufkerio: There are several patches for A2DP :)21:06
kerioyay21:07

keriowhy?22:40
lufBecause it's nice unix like :) And it's wasting of time to remove such thing. You can add you favorite shell to the file.23:05

DocScrutinizer05luf: cssu-testing is not meant for THAT type of testing. Finding regressions is a process devels shall *finish* with in their local testbed, before a package goes to cssu-testing. The tesing in CSSU is meant in a sense of verification, not as in development23:28
DocScrutinizer05re ((<luf> freemangordon: someone has to find the regressions first ;) ))23:29
lufDocScrutinizer05: I didn't talk about cssu-testing ...23:31
lufDocScrutinizer05: If I didn't miss something we (kerio, me and free) talk about bluez-4.99. And I don23:33
DocScrutinizer05ok23:33
luf... I don't propose bluez-4.99 for cssu.23:33
DocScrutinizer05I might have gotten sth wrong23:33
kerioi propose bluez-4.99 for DocScrutinizer23:33
lufkerio: Be patient. It's very time consuming to go through all bluez patches since March.23:35
keriocan't you grab the latest upstream?23:35
lufI don't think so.23:35
lufAnd I don't want.23:36
*** int_ua has joined #maemo-ssu23:36
* kerio maybe has too much faith in the upstream23:37
lufkerio: There is removed unix socket and alsa support and it's not tested in any well-known linux distros.23:37
lufAt least in test env.23:37
DocScrutinizer05it's a common misconception that upstream was suitable for embedded23:38
kerioDocScrutinizer05: the n900 kinda blurs the line between embedded and desktop though23:38
*** MrPingu has joined #maemo-ssu23:38
DocScrutinizer05not really23:38
DocScrutinizer05the hw clearly is defined by all the known embedded properties23:39
keriowhich properties?23:39
DocScrutinizer05irq event driven, no polling, speed to idle, zeroclock, proprietary "peripherals", etc...23:40
keriobut apart for the proprietary peripherals, those would be good things on a desktop, too23:40
DocScrutinizer05sure, but "desktop" devels are largely ignorant to the change in thinking that introduces23:41
DocScrutinizer05and it already hurts mer23:41
DocScrutinizer05with their sensorfw evidently not designed according to those rules23:42
*** ZogG has joined #maemo-ssu23:43
*** ZogG has joined #maemo-ssu23:43
keriowhat's sensorfw?23:43
DocScrutinizer05the middleware between sensors and apps23:43
DocScrutinizer05replacement for stuff like mce, liblocation etc23:44
DocScrutinizer05and it has no proper concept for irq event driven processing23:45
DocScrutinizer05at least last time I checked23:45
*** NIN101 has quit IRC23:46
ShadowJKThe first I heard of zeroclock and race to idle was actually in connection with intel's lesswatts.org project :)23:46
DocScrutinizer05it's like "app -[poll]->sensorfw-[poll]->peripheral23:46
DocScrutinizer05"23:46
kerioDocScrutinizer05: hey, at least it's not a busyloop!23:48
DocScrutinizer05ShadowJK: yeah, intel is aware of those concepts, but not many of the so called "kernel hackers" contributing to mainstream are. That's why basically every embedded device is using a private fork of kernel and lowlevel system libs23:49
