DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: you think he ever grows a brain?02:28

DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: >>...do your best to help that very same community last<< That's a dangerous request. I'm sure he's absolutely totally convinced he's doing exactly that02:54
*** arcean_ has joined #maemo-ssu02:54
DocScrutinizer05alas he also seems to think he's the only one who understands what's killing community, and in his world that's for sure not him02:55

DocScrutinizer05btw that rings a bell here, I think I've detected same mindset before02:56

Estel_because having separate Board and Council bodies was perfectly fine idea, from the beginning, and trying to wanr about it was considered... trolling?06:02
Estel_s/wanr/warn/06:02
infobotEstel_ meant: because having separate Board and Council bodies was perfectly fine idea, from the beginning, and trying to warn about it was considered... trolling?06:02
Estel_more on topic for this channel: I'll be boring again about phone-ui, but why, oh why, is it ignoring portait/landscape locks (no matter if locked to portrait or landscape)?06:03
*** DocScrutinizer05 has joined #maemo-ssu06:04
Estel_this shitty thing deciding to jump from landscape into portrait and/or back again is sole reason for my one and only situations of "missing calls due to phone becoming unresponsive", nothing else06:04
Estel_not to mention fun situation when "accept" button become "reject" after landscape->potrait, or opposite06:04
Estel_or more fun situations, when reject becomes accept + loudspeaker06:05
Estel_that one is unlimited ammount of fun!06:05
Estel_amount, even06:05
Estel_probably ammo was freud'ish mistake here06:06
Estel_is there any freakin way to force phone-ui during incoming calls to be always *either* landscape or portrait?06:06
Estel_IDFC which one, just something constant06:06
Estel_of course it hapilly ignores blacklist/whitelist on transitions.ini, too06:07

amiconnSpeaking about unresponsiveness... I wonder what's wrong with fennec10:31
amiconnIt's not usable at all10:31
amiconnWhen starting, it takes about 30 seconds until the UI appears. But UI appearing doesn't mean it's usable. Starting to type a URL right away does nothing for about another minute or so. Only then it starts processing the input (letters appearing) - at the whopping speed of about one character per two seconds...10:33
amiconnThat's with cssu-thumb and fennec 17 (thumb compiled), but all earlier versions I tried behaved the same (except 1.1 - that one was a little faster)10:34
*** Sc0rpius has quit IRC10:35

Palimerlin1991, I got another build mail17:09
merlin1991Pali: yep17:10
*** _rd has joined #maemo-ssu17:10
merlin1991and this time we have http://repository.maemo.org/community-testing/pool/fremantle/free/r/rtcom-messaging-ui-portrait/17:10
merlin1991:)17:10
Palimerlin1991, btw why are you trying to push version 1.0? it has version string bug17:10
Paliinclude 1.0-117:10
merlin1991Pali: I'm repushing T717:11
merlin1991since the maemo.org repo is stuck at T617:11
merlin1991new stuff after we have a proper repo again17:11
Paliso after migration maemo.org lose some packages?17:12
merlin1991yes testing is @ T6 and stable is at 4.117:13
Paliok, so you only imported same packages which was already there before migration...17:13
merlin1991yes17:13
Palidid you used your mirror? (to have same md5sum of packages)?17:13
merlin1991I saved the packages locally when uploading17:14
merlin1991I'm uploading the very same build :)17:14
keriooh, is community-testing built?17:14
Paliso md5sum will be different as on your mirror?17:14
kerioi didn't know that17:14
merlin1991Pali: md5sums will be exactly the same, those are the files I uploaded last time17:15
Palithen ok :-)17:15
Palimerlin1991: and another quesion it is possible to put CSSU repo to maemo package interface? http://maemo.org/packages/repository/17:15
merlin1991possible yes, how todo that though I have nfc17:15

kerioDocScrutinizer05: The result can be read in 0x5f-5e. The result is a signed number with an LSB value of 1.225 μV.18:19
keriowhat do you think this means? 16-bit two's complement value?18:19
DocScrutinizer05sure, that's a signed int16, with unit "1,225 uV"18:21
DocScrutinizer05you can simply cast to int1618:23
DocScrutinizer05typecast18:23
kerioone does not simply typecast to int16 in python :P18:37
*** LauRoman has joined #maemo-ssu18:42
merlin1991kerio: how do you read in the data aka where is it stored?18:45
keriomerlin1991: two ints, for high and low byte18:45
merlin1991yeah but HOW18:45
keriowut18:46
keriowhat do you mean how?18:46
DocScrutinizer05i2cget(foo, bar)18:46
kerioeh, not quite18:46
keriothe python-smbus module isn't compiled in i2c-tools :(18:46
DocScrutinizer05merlin1991: he reads from a register dump in /sys18:47
DocScrutinizer05which is fubar in itself18:47
keriohm, can i2cget read a signed value?18:47
merlin1991well my main question is in which python datatype the stuff lands initally18:47
keriomerlin1991: int18:47
merlin1991because depending on that you can use struct.* stuff to "typecast"18:47
kerioew :<18:48
kerioto be fair, it's probably the most correct thing to do18:48
kerioexcept not quite, i'd have to convert the ints into a single string18:49
merlin1991struct.unpack('something', struct.pack('ii', int1, int2))18:49
keriohm, python-smbus can't read "signed" values anyway18:50
keriomerlin1991: mmmmh18:50
kerioi have to say, i don't really like it :<18:50
kerioreturn ((cres + 0x8000) % 0x10000 - 0x8000) * 1.22518:51
merlin1991or just pacth pyhton-smbus :D18:51
kerioaww yea18:51
*** freemangordon has joined #maemo-ssu18:53
DocScrutinizer05kerio: that "2s-complement" looks rather nifty18:53
DocScrutinizer05and - even worse - *correct* ;-P18:54
DocScrutinizer05just wondering how sysfs registerdump will provide the 0x5f-5e18:55
kerioas separate registers18:56
keriobut i made my code completely agnostic18:56
keriobecause it just does (high << 8 | low)18:56
kerioso if low is actually a word, and high is 0, it still works18:56
kerio(obviously you have to make sure that high is set to 0 if it's "missing")18:56
DocScrutinizer05that all implies the register dump would actually provide that range18:59
kerioit does, i checked :)18:59
DocScrutinizer05ugh18:59
DocScrutinizer05could you hand me the bus,chip addr please?19:00
kerio"uV" is perfectly acceptable as a replacement for "µV", right?19:00
DocScrutinizer05right19:00
kerio~bq27k-detail19:00
infobotit has been said that bq27k-detail is http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/usr/local/sbin/bq27k-detail219:00
kerio^ there19:00
DocScrutinizer05sigh19:00
kerio:P19:00
DocScrutinizer05thanks19:00
DocScrutinizer05meh, then not19:00
DocScrutinizer05too lazy19:00
kerio2 0x55, apparently19:01
DocScrutinizer05yep19:01
kerioanyway, even parsing that value is silly19:01
keriobecause to do a board offset calibration, you must not use the battery19:01
keriobut you must use the battery to talk to bq27k19:01
merlin1991when I set up my awesome I thought 2 screens with 4 virtual screens each should be enough, right?19:02
merlin1991turns out I'll prob need 6 virtual screens each :D19:02
DocScrutinizer05http://privatepaste.com/9059c48d09  FWIW19:03
DocScrutinizer05any sysfs register dump should probably provide exactly same output, maybe truncated to significant range19:05
DocScrutinizer05http://privatepaste.com/00ee60198719:06
kerioDocScrutinizer05: are sysfs nodes supposed to be human-readable?19:09
DocScrutinizer05err, on unix every file is supposed to be human-readable, except binaries and device-nodes19:10
DocScrutinizer05so: generally yes19:10
DocScrutinizer05optimized for parsing by shellscripts etc, but still human-readable19:11
DocScrutinizer05AWESOME! ->  watch --differences=cumulative -n 5 i2cdump -y 2 0x5519:11
kerioneat19:12
kerioDocScrutinizer05: it's a whole new thing! :D http://privatepaste.com/33038b135e19:13
kerioinstead of using a Bq27kList i could just make something that calls i2cget when values are requested19:16
keriocaching the values, obviously :)19:16
DocScrutinizer05as expected: the range 0x30-0x6f has quite some interesting values19:18
kerioyeah but they're all internals19:19
DocScrutinizer05yes, exactly. That's why they're so interesting ;-)19:24
DocScrutinizer05I'm looking for a realtime clock of any kind, that must have a range of days at least19:25
DocScrutinizer05also I'm looking for an internal "work copy" of eeprom config values like ILMD19:26
kerioit could also be interesting to write there19:28
kerioto see what happens19:28
DocScrutinizer05write error19:32
DocScrutinizer05:-P19:32
DocScrutinizer05I just tried to enable EEPROM programming, but I'm too lazy to look up the correct sequence19:33
DocScrutinizer05tried writing 1 to 0x6e19:33
DocScrutinizer05which worked but didn't exactly change a thing19:34
kerioi2cset 2 0x55 0x6e `dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=1`19:34
keriorepeat until enabled19:34
DocScrutinizer05haha19:34

DocScrutinizer05\o/19:39
DocScrutinizer05as expected19:39
keriodoes bq27k work, in the meantime?19:39
DocScrutinizer05probably sticky til next full reset19:39
DocScrutinizer05it gone quite quiet19:40
kerio:(19:40
DocScrutinizer05I.E. not much changes anymore19:40
DocScrutinizer05IroN900:~# i2cset -y 2 0x55 0x6e 0x0019:40
DocScrutinizer050x76 back to 0x2d19:41
DocScrutinizer05F*CK!19:41
kerio:(19:41
DocScrutinizer05http://privatepaste.com/a95bce7093  (see ILMD, but also note that NUTTIN except 0x 60 61 64 66 is changing anymore in i2cdump)19:46
kerioDocScrutinizer05: full reset time?19:47
DocScrutinizer05nah, as soon as I disable EEPROM prog it reverts to normal, incl ILMD19:47
kerioi see19:47
keriohave you tried reading the value?19:47
kerio...yes you have19:47
DocScrutinizer05dump is reading *all* values19:48
keriohm, maybe reading it as a single byte matters?19:48
DocScrutinizer05dunno19:48
DocScrutinizer05it's sticky as long as prog mode19:48
DocScrutinizer05so I don't think reading changes anything except for flashing EEPROM19:49
kerioah what? python 2.5 didn't have str.format yet?19:49
keriowhat the balls19:49
kerioDocScrutinizer05: if i had to guess, reading the value is setting some internal address pointer, to know what to program19:49
DocScrutinizer05yep19:50
DocScrutinizer05but since no Vpp, no programming at all19:51
DocScrutinizer05disbaling prog by writing 0xdf (instead 0xdd) has same effect as writing 00 to same location19:53
DocScrutinizer05disabling*19:54
* DocScrutinizer05 waves and vanishes19:54

Estel_in the meantime, kerio, congratulate for sending your candidacy for Council!22:28
kerio:D22:28
kerioi doubt i'm a valid candidate though22:28
Estel_You have my vote, which means that you will hate me, as it's equal to others stopping voting for you :P22:29
Estel_seriously though, yes, you're valid candidate22:29
keriono karma22:29
Estel_have you read annoucement. :P22:29
kerionope22:29
Estel_if your account is more than 3 months old, you're valid22:29
Estel_due to karma being not calculated properly22:30
kerioyay22:31
Estel_it means half our spambots are egligle too, but, whatever22:31
Estel_now we *only*need  voting to make Council members = Board and say goodbye to that ridicolous nonsense which is happening around board<->council contacts22:32
Estel_or board<->anyone else22:32
kerioboard is a legal entity, though22:32
Estel_sure, we need to vote for people that will represent us in legal entity22:32
Estel_one guy who isn't sure if we're able to vote him out + one guy who doesn't know what maemo is and want new maemo products to compete with android is enough22:33
Estel_for +- eternity22:33
Estel_not to mention both being not appointed by voting, actually22:34

merlin1991*missing* had and ke-recv?23:39
fw190hildon desktop (>=1:2.2.146-2)23:40
fw190that is what it wants23:41
fw190and ke-recv (>=3.19-15.7)23:41
merlin1991oh I just noticed I have ke-recv and h-d in subfolders inside my T7 folder23:41
fw190;)23:41
merlin1991and ofc an scp *.deb *tar.gz ... didn#t pick that up23:41
fw190don't knwo what you say but good that you know how to fix it ;)23:42
fw190anyway will report fi all will go well23:42
merlin1991fw190: I basically had all T7 packages in a folder and just uploaded that again, not realizing that ke-recv and hildon-desktop were a layer deeper in their own subfolders, so didn't get uploaded23:44
fw190ah ok23:44
merlin1991I've uploaded them now, should arrive in the repo within 5 mins23:45
merlin1991yup both are imported23:46
merlin1991update the catalogues and you should be ready to upgrade23:46
