konahmm. getting u-boot installed alongside maemo5 is proving to be unusually difficult.01:10
konalooks like my 900 won't connect to my AP and when I try tethering to my phone the connection is unstable01:11
konaah, it's dns.01:14
konagreetings from leste on n90002:50
Wizzupkona: :D11:10
uvosfreemangordon: wait you tagged out h-d without affecting the other changes12:01
uvosWizzup: parazyd: could  one of you affect the changes mentioned https://github.com/maemo-leste/hildon-desktop/pull/14 in the the first comment12:02
uvosie make the meta package not install hildon-desktop-rotation-support conflicting it instead and removeing dbus-scripts12:03
uvosleste-configas well as the postins change for12:03
uvos*as well as the postins change for leste-config12:03
uvoshildon-desktop-rotation-support can then be deleted from the repos/jenkins entirely12:04
uvosand archived12:04
Wizzupdoes h-d also conflict with the rotation package?12:05
uvosno but that would be a good idea12:05
WizzupIt really should I think12:05
uvosyes12:05
WizzupI can do it a bit later, but prefer that parazyd does it12:10
uvosok12:10
uvosbut devel will be a bit broken untill you do12:10
Wizzupmhm12:11
freemangordonuvos: what other packages?12:15
freemangordon*other changes12:16
uvosthe pr you merged replaces a scripty hack i wrote to do the same thing previously12:16
freemangordonI see12:16
uvosits really racy and now you will have the 2 methods fighting12:16
freemangordonok, going to fix that12:16
WizzupI think the conflict might just go it, depending on what pulls in the rotation pkg (some meta pkg)12:17
Wizzupor Replaces: maybe12:17
uvoswell that breaks meta12:17
uvosand leste-config12:17
uvosso no replaces is not sufficant12:17
freemangordonI don;t want to add Replaces: in h-d12:17
* Wizzup bbiab12:17
freemangordonuvos: I think the best approach would be to just remove any functionality from hildon-desktop-rotation-support and release a new version12:19
uvosand then? i dont think leaving a empty package on users devices forever is a good idea12:20
uvosa conflicts somewhere sounds more sane12:20
uvosimo12:20
freemangordonor, we can add Replaces and Conficts to the metapackage12:20
uvosright12:20
freemangordonwhich package is that?12:20
uvosreplaces is not nessecary even12:20
freemangordondo you know?12:20
freemangordonit is12:20
uvosnot sure no12:20
uvoshildon-meta would be my gues12:20
uvosfreemangordon: no why replaces?12:21
uvosfreemangordon: conflicts should be enough nothing depends on this package12:21
freemangordonwe need both Replaces and Confilcts so hildon-desktop-rotation-support to be uninstalled upon metapackage upgrade12:21
uvosfreemangordon: (leste-config might but you have to remove that anyhow it calls the script directly)12:21
freemangordonthat's how it works12:21
uvosok12:21
* freemangordon checks what is leste-config12:22
uvoswould have thought if we remove all the requires and then have a package conflict then apt would just uninstall12:22
freemangordonno, IIRC12:22
freemangordonok, it is hildon-meta that depends on hildon-desktop-rotation-support12:25
freemangordonuvos: what it is about "(13,20,08) uvos: freemangordon: (leste-config might but you have to remove that anyhow it calls the script directly)"?12:26
freemangordonwho calls what script?12:26
uvosfreemangordon: postins12:26
uvosfreemangordon: calls the rotation script12:26
freemangordonof hildon-meta?12:26
uvosof leste-config12:27
freemangordonthat doesn;t make sense to me12:27
* freemangordon chacks12:27
uvosits because udevadm trigger12:27
uvoscauses the x to reinitalize the input devices12:27
uvosthis causes the rotation to unapply12:27
uvosso leste-config just rotates them back using the script12:27
uvosas it stands now this is no longer a problem12:28
uvosbecause the reintalized xinput devices will be picked up by hildon12:28
uvos-desktop12:28
freemangordonuvos: I don;t see anything like that in leste-config, could you point it for me?12:28
uvossure sec12:29
uvoshttps://github.com/maemo-leste/leste-config/blob/44adcd16de212694e9a2f2d792b8b4d3098014ae/debian/leste-config-mapphone.postinst#L1612:29
uvosthe same thing is in all .postinst12:30
freemangordon:(12:30
uvosyes this is hacky :P12:30
freemangordonok, I'll just revert and have a release12:30
uvosthats why i replaced it12:30
uvosdont look at /usr/bin/hildon-desktop-rotate-touchscreen.sh im ashamed :P12:31
freemangordonno, I am sad because it is copied amongst all the .postinst files12:31
freemangordonok, will not :)12:31
freemangordonuvos: this rotation script hack is for mapphone and pocophone-f1 only, right?12:37
uvosno anything that rotates12:37
uvosso should be anything but n90012:38
freemangordonwell, I mean postinst calling the script12:38
uvospretty sure its deployed on pp to12:38
uvosotherwise portrait mode would not work there12:38
freemangordonnope https://github.com/maemo-leste/leste-config/blob/master/debian/leste-config-pinephone.postinst12:39
uvosoh you mean in leste-config12:39
freemangordonyeah12:39
uvosthere its only wherever udevadm trigger is also needed12:39
uvosthat might be only mapphones and f1 yeah12:39
freemangordonshall I remove udevadm trigger call as well?12:40
uvosno12:40
freemangordonok12:40
uvosits needed for unlreated reasons12:40
uvos(we have udev  hw config files that might change and need udev to update its database)12:40
freemangordonok12:40
freemangordonuvos: actually it needs Replaces:, Conflicts: and Provides: in order to auto-remove hildon-desktop-rotation-support13:09
freemangordonparazyd: correct^^^ ?13:10
freemangordonuvos: could you please update/upgrade to see if everything is ok?13:22
freemangordon(I already did in the VM)13:22
uvosfreemangordon: dosent work16:02
uvosfreemangordon: apt simply holds hildon-meta back16:02
uvosfreemangordon: upgrading meta explicitly via apt install dose work16:02
Wizzupuvos: what about apt dist-upgrade?16:11
uvosto late16:11
uvosbut yeah that might wokr16:11
uvosnew sphone should start fine with the xsession script (and survive ofono restarts)17:36
konais there a | on the n900 hw kbd?17:48
Wizzupthere is a special vkb popup for those keys17:51
konahmm, just close kb and use vkb?17:51
Wizzupno, there is a key combo to press17:51
Wizzuplet me check17:52
Wizzupblue array + ctrl/sym17:52
Wizzups/array/arrow/17:52
konai think i must be doing it wrong :(17:54
konathe two keys on upper left?  in order? togetherD17:54
kona?17:54
konaprobably matters that i'm in osso-xterm17:54
Wizzuplet me boot my leste phone to test for you17:55
Wizzuphmmm17:58
Wizzuplooks like it's broken17:58
konaok, boo broken, yay not holding it wrong.17:59
konaalso boo me not having run expandcard.sh17:59
buZzkona: OK + P18:00
buZzthats |18:00
buZzoh n900, no idea there18:00
uvoshe uses n90018:00
konasorry, she :)18:01
uvosit uses n900 :P18:01
uvosthere every one is included18:01
Wizzupso I also cannot summon special keys vkb on d418:01
uvoswhats the key combination on d4?18:01
Wizzupso it's broken I think18:01
konacan't tell if i've been upgraded or downgraded to android 11 :P18:02
Wizzupuvos: iirc [OK] + [sym]18:02
Wizzupcould be [OK] + shift as well, not sure18:02
konai think buZz said OK+P is pipe18:02
buZzyep18:02
buZzOK+P on droid418:03
uvoson d418:03
uvosthis is machine specific18:03
buZzfor | , not for vkb18:03
WizzupbuZz: no! ok + p does not summon vkb18:03
Wizzupok, yes18:03
Wizzupbut that's not the point :)18:03
buZzthats what i said Wizzup :) np18:03
buZz*hug*18:03
Wizzup:)18:03
uvosi hope i dident break it by accident18:03
uvoswhile adding the x11 backend18:03
uvosthis is the most recent change18:03
WizzupI think it might be that18:03
konaok, i can just use vkb for | for now if i really need to.18:05
* uvos ducks18:05
Wizzupyeah, but we need to fix this :)18:05
konathis will help me break the bad habit of 'cat foo | less' instead of 'less foo' anyway.18:05
uvosheh18:05
WizzupI don't think that is a bad habit18:06
uvosright its the fault for needing | not our fault18:06
uvosclearly18:06
uvos*right its the users fault for needing | not our fault18:06
konalol exactly! :)18:06
konanow to find out if i need to repave my sd card.18:06
konasurf can load a web page now, so maybe i'm ok!18:12
buZzmaybe you can patch bash to replace | with a different symbol ;)18:13
uvosnot sure why you would ever want to do that, besides fixing the vkb messing with xkb to add a | would make more sense than taht18:16
konased -i s/\|/£/g < /bin/bash18:16
buZz:)18:16
buZzhehe exactly18:16
konayes, fixing would be preferable of course.18:17
konauvos: i think i narrowed down what's not rendering on the pinephone for trojita.  there's a dialogue to accept the server cert that never shows up, and because of that, it never tries to auth with the server.  but it doesn't print anything (if you start from console) or log anything, or put anything in the proto log about it.19:28
konaI might try to investigate when build deps for modesty frustrate me19:29
konamodest*19:34
freemangordonkona: besides tinimail-gnomevfs and microb-engine-dev, what else do you miss? ghtml4?20:51
freemangordon*gkthtml420:51
konaSome html, yes.20:53
konaSo far that's all I've found missing20:53
freemangordonright. hopefully, it shouldn't be that hard to port from gtkhtml3 to gtkhtml421:16
