ilewI finally have a test device and it has a working slide sensor. Unfortunately I wasn't about to reproduce https://github.com/community-ssu/hildon-desktop/issues/100:11
ilewOnly thing I noticed was there sometimes a slight lag before text would show up.00:13
ilewDocScrutinizer05: Btw your lazy-flasher script worked perfectly.00:20
DocScrutinizer05good to hear that :-)00:35
DocScrutinizer05no big magic, just a few minor nifty obfuscations :-)00:36
DocScrutinizer05actually I wonder why Nokia didn't provide such thing right away00:36
DocScrutinizer05and heck yes, they could even gave statically linked that friggin flasher binary00:39

ilewI guess they didn't want people to flash their device with such ease. The one problem I did noticed with the script is you can't call it from another directory.00:44
ilewCouldn't `dirname $0` be used on the libusb preload to get that working?00:53
DocScrutinizer05prolly00:54
DocScrutinizer05didn't even think about that since the whole thing is meant to run in a sort of own temporary dir00:54
DocScrutinizer05not relying on $PATH or anything of the host system00:55
DocScrutinizer05I actually been pondering to use sth line `find / -iname '*FIASKO*'` or similar to offer picking of already downloaded image files00:56
DocScrutinizer05then I decided that might take ages on some systems00:57
ilewFair enough, I just have a habbit staying in the $HOME dir and typing the full path.00:57
DocScrutinizer05yeah, doesn't work with that00:57
DocScrutinizer05a `cd $(dirname $0)` at start of script should fix your issues, I guess00:58
ilewYeah that's probably a more straight to the point solution.01:04
DocScrutinizer05you're welcome to test it and "provide a patch", I'm not eager to run all testing on it now however that's needed before I could publish a new version01:07
DocScrutinizer05I also wonder if I should update the LD_PRELOAD usb libs when I'm at it01:09
DocScrutinizer05gawdawful hack, I must have been drunk when I came up with that :-P01:09
DocScrutinizer05maybe the whole thing should get converted to 0xffff01:11
ilewI gave it a quick test and it works. I just added 'cd `dirname -- "$0"`' to line 11601:11
ilewDoes 0xffff have the same problems regarding the usb libs?01:12
DocScrutinizer05shouldn't01:38
DocScrutinizer05we can build it statically linked01:38
DocScrutinizer05adding to #116 as recommended01:39
DocScrutinizer05ilew: could you please check the complete ~lazyflashing (at least the wget)?02:03
DocScrutinizer05((0xffff have the same problems)) also iirc 9xff doesn't depend on libusb_3202:05
DocScrutinizer050xffff02:05
DocScrutinizer05~lazyflashing02:16
infoboti guess lazyflashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware#The_Lazy_Approach02:16
DocScrutinizer05ok, nevermind, I checked it and it seems to work02:19
DocScrutinizer05gawd, what users lingering in that tarball? Meh, needs root anyway, so who cares02:36
