Wizzup | https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/571 wonder what log files we should ask for | 13:07 |
---|---|---|
uvos | i would just try the latest image on a device | 13:45 |
uvos | the latest image being unbootable has been a reoccuring theme | 13:45 |
uvos | we should have a test stand that boots it on device and checks ps for all the processies we expect to run at boot or something. | 13:47 |
Wizzup | uvos: I think he reported this been a consistent problem for him | 13:50 |
Wizzup | for months | 13:50 |
Wizzup | I think we need a list of things to check / attach when filing a bug | 13:51 |
Wizzup | brb | 13:52 |
uvos | well if he has this problem whilest the image works fine when installed on other devices | 14:00 |
uvos | dmsg is the obvious log since that suggests hardware failure | 14:00 |
Wizzup | could be, or hw differences | 14:21 |
donchurch | Greetings! First time user here. I want to express my concerns regarding the infrared selfie flash that is continually flashing. I discovered this while using night vision equipment. On my N900 booting the latest from an sdcard. | 22:16 |
donchurch | I discovered the same issue on my LG v20 while using a custom rom (without GAPPS) but it stopped when I installed LineageOS. | 22:19 |
donchurch | The N900 has a custom rom too from numerous years ago replacing the stock OS | 22:22 |
sixwheeledbeast | I believe you are on about a active IR sensor to detect when the phone is against your face. | 22:34 |
donchurch | Hmm, thanks for the info. I didn't know that was how that functioned. I'll check that out. | 22:38 |
uvos | should not be flashing in leste tho | 22:39 |
uvos | leste dosent use the sensor at all on n900 | 22:40 |
uvos | so it should be off | 22:40 |
uvos | on d4/bionic/pp it should get turned on in certian cercumstances but be off otherwise | 22:40 |
sixwheeledbeast | while true; do cat /sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/proximity/state; done | 22:41 |
freemangordon | hmm, proximity should be enabled only when in call | 22:42 |
sixwheeledbeast | How you can test it in fremantle. | 22:42 |
uvos | freemangordon: there are also other cases (right after a alarm fires) | 22:43 |
uvos | freemangordon: but yeah | 22:43 |
uvos | freemangordon: but leste dosent controll the proximitry sensor at all on n900 atm | 22:43 |
freemangordon | right, alarm is the other user | 22:43 |
uvos | freemangordon: since its on the evdev interface something might be holding the if open and the sensor on | 22:43 |
freemangordon | mhm | 22:44 |
uvos | freemangordon: could be x | 22:44 |
freemangordon | right | 22:44 |
freemangordon | sixwheeledbeast: hi! long time no see :) | 22:44 |
sixwheeledbeast | hey freemangordon | 22:45 |
uvos | we should open a bug to bring the prox to the iio interface on n900 iirc its just a gpio so should be trivial to port the driver | 22:47 |
uvos | we have a analogus bug for the acell | 22:47 |
freemangordon | does iio support proximity class? | 22:47 |
uvos | yeah | 22:47 |
freemangordon | should be trivial then | 22:47 |
uvos | yeah | 22:48 |
freemangordon | hmm, maybe I can take that one once I finish with PipCalendar stuff, to have some rest from abook | 22:48 |
uvos | same thing with acell, there a driver even exits allready and works | 22:48 |
uvos | only the n900's comptabile needs adding | 22:48 |
uvos | and the old driver needs removal | 22:49 |
freemangordon | I see | 22:49 |
hallyn | what kernel does leste use on n900? | 22:49 |
uvos | pretty old one 5.1 iirc | 22:50 |
hallyn | oh but not the original 3.x or whatever? that's cool. | 22:51 |
uvos | orignal was 2.6.x | 22:51 |
hallyn | i need to *find* my n900 - someone's hidden it - but until now i was afraid of using it bc of old software, but leste would let me us e it! | 22:52 |
hallyn | thanks. | 22:52 |
uvos | leste its still quite rough but yeah it can be used for some basic tasks | 22:53 |
uvos | the n900 suffers under some extra issues too most problematic of these are: it has broken rotation and broken pm. | 22:55 |
hallyn | there's a simple debian repo where all the source and binary packages can be found? | 22:57 |
hallyn | I hope the broken pm isn't due to missing proprietary kernel features... | 22:57 |
uvos | all of the n900 special issues are related to the propretary powervr driver | 22:58 |
hallyn | well. could be fun to dig into too. | 23:01 |
hallyn | hopefully i find my n900 in storage tomorrow. else i won't know where else to look | 23:01 |
