Palifreemangordon: I mean to look what is needed to do to prevent removal of n900 from u-boot00:47
Daanct12Good morning03:15
buZzha sweet, got my bt headsetthingy working from droid404:38
buZzi'll dump notes somewhere on wiki as soon as i can do this without that ugly 'blueman'04:38
buZzpretty hissy though, wonder if thats the '3 euro'-ness of this bt setup or something else04:44
buZzand wasnt able to use the microphone built-in to adapter yet04:46
buZzah the hissyness relates to wifi being enabled it seems04:55
freemangordonWizzup: in -devel, yes07:20
Danct12i just calibrated my battery, now showing 1794mah :P08:07
Danct12i know it's fake, but when charging is it safe to unplug it while it's charging? i don't want to interrupt the calibration process08:08
diejuseGood morning. My video about chroot Maemo Leste on Android phone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqFHivcPIRM&t=4s09:25
diejuseI hope you like.09:26
diejuse(first part)09:26
Wizzupfreemangordon: cool09:53
WizzupDanct12: better not interrupt I think09:54
Wizzupdiejuse: hey that looks really good09:55
parazydwow cool video10:20
Danct12yep really cool, except that might actually use more battery12:07
WizzupDanct12: more than?12:07
Danct12i bet the X server on that phone is running only in software mode12:07
Danct12maemo doesn't require a lot cpu/gpu power so it runs pretty nice i'd say12:08
Danct12more battery than running traditional android apps :P12:08
WizzupDanct12: It did look quite smooth on the 3d so that would surprise me12:08
uvosinteresintly his hildon launcher scrolling works correctly12:20
uvoswhile it dose not work correcly on mapphones or n90012:20
uvosit fails to keep scrolling when you release it at velocity12:21
Wizzupreally?12:22
* Wizzup tries12:22
Daanct12I wonder if that's a bug by nokia12:24
Daanct12Since the same appears on fremantle too12:24
uvosDaanct12: good to know12:30
Wizzupit works on fremantle12:33
WizzupCould be a clutter input thing12:34
diejuseWizzup, parazyd, uvos, Danct12: Thanks for the feedback. I am happy that you like it.12:54
diejuseThere will be a second part. I divided the video into two parts so that it would not be so long.12:55
Danct12i actually would like a unihertz titan, except the kernel source isn't open12:57
diejuseDanct12: I do not perceive extra battery costs.12:57
diejuseDanct12: Titan is a fantastic phone. It just lacks a design with less frame and more screen size.12:59
diejuseI think there are people working to install Ubuntu Touch natively.13:00
WizzupDanct12: they don't reply to GPL requests?13:05
Daanct12Pretty sure they dont13:06
Daanct12They arent a US/EU company13:06
Daanct12So it's hard to force them to comply with gpl13:07
diejuseThey are chinese13:08
diejuseI could try installing Maemo on a common non-rooted Android phone. On an Android blackberry, for example. Using the proot technique.13:13
mightytmlind acc to board files (https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_samsung_espresso10/blob/cm-14.1/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-espresso-pmic.c#L612-L616) gpio 6 needs to be high which is suppose is done by twl6030_omap4.dtsi14:29
mightybut here https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_samsung_espresso10/blob/cm-14.1/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-espresso-muxset-r03.c#L827 it is muxmode3 while mainline has muxmode2 and even the omap4 TRM says mode3 is reserved14:30
Danct12does the calibration value resets if you remove the battery?14:54
WizzupDanct12: shouldn't but potentially15:06
freemangordoncool video :)15:33
freemangordonPali: anything in particular?15:33
Palifreemangordon: looks like that board code needs to be convered to DM USB API15:34
PaliI have quickly looked at it, but I'm not sure if this conversion makes sense as DM USB API looks like API for host mode15:35
Palinot for peripeheral mode which n900 use for usbtty15:35
PaliUSB is used in u-boot only for usbtty, nothing more15:35
Paliusb host mode for n900 is not in u-boot implemented, because of bugs and hacks (which were implemented in userspace and kernel)15:36
Paliand I'm not sure what to do with USB in u-boot for n900... as the only reason for usb code is usbtty console support, nothing more15:37
freemangordonok, so, what exactly you want me to do? Try to do the port?15:38
Paliif you have time, try to look at it, if it makes sense to do some port15:41
Palibecause porting some unused feature (e.g. non-working usb host mode) to a new API does not make any sense15:42
freemangordonok, will do, but won't have time during the weekend, so on Monday, most-probably. Will ping you then for some more details, ok?15:42
Paliok!15:43
freemangordonright15:43
freemangordonbut are you sure it is only about hostmode?15:43
PaliI'm not sure, what why I'm asking for help15:43
freemangordonis n900 the only user of usb tty?15:43
freemangordonok15:43
freemangordonwe have a deal :)15:43
Palidue to bugs which were in usbtty code, I think that in upstream u-boot is n900 really the only user15:44
freemangordonok15:44
PaliI cannot image that somebody was able to use it without those patches15:44
bencohalright, I finally installed Leste on my droid4 (basically dd-ed a backup of my custom debian sdcard, installed kexecboot, and dd-ed leste), and ... I'm impressed :)16:08
bencohthere are a few glitches here and there, but it's super nice overall16:08
bencoh<316:08
inkyfolks i forgot how to load bt driver.16:09
inkymodprobe what?16:09
inkyi got firmware-ti-connectivity16:09
bencohhci_uart I think16:09
inkybut what to modprobe?16:09
inkyi thanks16:09
inkyi am doing 'scan on' in bluetoothctl and it says no default controller available16:11
inkyi think i need to modprobe something else.16:11
inkyi did it once but forgot.16:11
Wizzupbencoh: good to hear :)16:16
bencoh:)16:20
WizzupbuZz: did you document the bt headset stuff somewhere?16:21
buZzWizzup: not yet, but its not superdifficult16:21
buZzi just dont like that i have to use 'blueman' for the connecting atm16:21
Wizzupthe more doc on the wiki the better ;)16:21
Wizzupaha16:21
buZzi'm convinced its possible with just bluetoothctl aswell16:21
buZzjust havent managed to yet16:21
buZzinky: 'power on' first16:22
buZziirc16:22
bencohalright, I'll have to play with it later .... looks like usbnet immediatly unregisters on my device, for some reason ... we'll see :)16:23
inkythank you but power on also doesn't see default device16:32
inkywhat is blueman? should i try that?16:32
inkyok right now need to get out. :/16:32
inkybut will try later.16:32
diejusefreemangordon: thanks :)16:35
Wizzupbencoh: maybe try a different cable16:44
Wizzupxyboards are here17:41
Wizzupah they do not have sdcards17:59
Wizzupsdcard slots*17:59
parazydTime to write mmc install scripts :D17:59
Danct12how about running the rootfs off usb? :D18:02
Wizzuppossible, I did that with the nexus 5 as a test18:08
Wizzupnot ideal though18:08
freemangordonWizzup: are you going to try to write support for hidden wlans in icd2 module or me to try doing that? Or we shall combine the forces?20:03
freemangordonhmm, what! I didn't do a release for https://github.com/maemo-leste/connui-internet/commit/181b42acf295ca32812ad6330e36c556d90cb3cb20:05
* freemangordon checks20:05
Wizzupfreemangordon: let me see if I can do it tonight20:22
Wizzupfreemangordon: looking at it now20:38
Wizzupfreemangordon: so I have 'Hidden Wi-Fi' in my list of networks in the scan dialog, but how do I use the wizard to fill in the AP name?20:43
Wizzupmaybe I need a reboot20:44
freemangordonwait a bit, to push the changes and rebuild20:44
Wizzupoh20:44
freemangordonyeah, I forgot to push. And I am doing some more cleanup ATM20:44
Wizzupnp, that's what I asked the other day ;-)20:44
freemangordonin 10 minutes, hopefully20:44
Wizzupno rush20:44
Wizzupthx20:44
Wizzupuvos: the xyboard comes with 3.0.8-ga886f0f20:49
freemangordonparazyd: Wizzup: what is the policy to move from -devel to stable?20:54
freemangordonbecause I think we shall move gtk, systemui, systemui-powerkeymenu and systemui-tklock to stable20:54
freemangordonall packages have severe bugs fixed20:55
siceloDanct12: unplugging while charging is fine. it has zero effect on charge cycle. the cycle is measured from charge full to empty20:57
Wizzupfreemangordon: usually parazyd does that every now and then when nothing goes on fire20:57
freemangordonwell, we have invalid memory access on powerkeymenu, leaks in gtk and systemui and lieak and grab fixes in tklock20:58
freemangordonno idea how we classify those, but in my book those are critical :)20:58
Wizzupfreemangordon: yes, so probably parazyd can do em soon21:01
Wizzupjust giving you the 'procedure' :p21:01
freemangordonok :)21:01
* parazyd notes it21:04
freemangordonthanks21:05
parazydfreemangordon: Would you prefer it in time for sunday's image builds or later?21:06
parazydI can do either, just wanna schedule it for myself21:06
freemangordonyes, better have it in the next image21:06
parazydokay21:06
freemangordonesp the grab fix is important21:06
freemangordonparazyd: BTW, why it always start from 2m7?21:09
freemangordonversion that is21:09
parazyd1m7 was when we were on Devuan Ascii, so we incremented that, and 7 is because Maemo 721:11
freemangordonoh21:11
freemangordonright, I forgot about that21:11
siceloDanct12: and yes, if you take out battery long enough, calibration does get reset. and of course, if you swap batteries, essentially you'll never have accurate readout21:13
freemangordonWizzup: now it is in the repos21:15
Wizzupfreemangordon: check21:16
Wizzupfreemangordon: update: getting closer, but there is some wierd wpa_supplicant stuff going on still23:03
Wizzupfreemangordon: ok, lol...23:26
Wizzupso I have code to register the hidden aps with wpa_supplicant, but it doesn't use the info unless I mark them as enabled23:26
Wizzupbut if I mark them as enabled, then wpa_supplicant will just automatically connect23:26
Wizzup(...)23:26
Wizzupoh lord this is also dependent on the capabilities of the wifi interface - how many hidden aps it can scan for23:51
Wizzup- Export max scan ssids supported by the driver as MaxScanSSID.23:52
