| buZz | dreamer: i seem to remember there was some touchscreen trick to get past that simcard requirement | 04:20 |
|---|---|---|
| buZz | something with tapping corners of the screen? hmm | 04:20 |
| buZz | > I got by that screen on my old Droid X by touching all four corners of the screen, clockwise starting at the top left. | 04:21 |
| buZz | https://www.droidforums.net/threads/how-to-activate-droid-4-w-no-sim-card.276540/ | 04:24 |
| dreamer | oh right | 04:37 |
| dreamer | don't really care though. don't need android :) | 04:37 |
| dreamer | #4 factory resetting and flashing bootloader | 04:40 |
| buZz | :) | 04:40 |
| freemangordon | I can;t believe what a mess is rpm spec file format :( | 10:38 |
| freemangordon | not to say that it seems to miss a basic functionality like "BuildREquires: package1 | package2" | 10:39 |
| Wizzup | freemangordon: what are you trying to do? | 10:42 |
| freemangordon | In my RL work I have to package a SW (which is currently packaged for debian) for RHEL | 10:44 |
| Wizzup | right | 10:44 |
| freemangordon | SW is written in qt and can be compiled for both qt4 and qt5 | 10:44 |
| freemangordon | in debian/control I can BuildDepends: qt4-dev | qt5-dev, but not in specs file it seems | 10:45 |
| freemangordon | what a piece of crap | 10:45 |
| freemangordon | "rpm 4.13.0, rpm supports boolean expressions in all dependencies" | 10:46 |
| Wizzup | hehe | 10:46 |
| freemangordon | but not 4.11 which is in RHEL7 | 10:46 |
| freemangordon | anyway, sorry for the OT | 10:47 |
| Wizzup | np | 10:47 |
| Wizzup | I read a lot of the rpm stuff when doing the audio work | 10:47 |
| Wizzup | we had the eu deadline last weekend btw, the tor and openvpn and wireguard stuff is mostly done | 10:47 |
| freemangordon | nice | 10:48 |
| Wizzup | but I got a fever shortly after the deadline, so didn't do much in the past ~5 days | 10:48 |
| freemangordon | :( | 10:48 |
| Wizzup | there's a few things to fix, but it's mostly good | 10:48 |
| Wizzup | (I've recovered) | 10:48 |
| Wizzup | I think at least the libicd- parts are mostly fine, there is some interface monitoring via netlink that I have to make a bit more robust | 10:49 |
| freemangordon | good, hopefully that was not covid | 10:49 |
| Wizzup | probably not | 10:49 |
| Wizzup | and then add that (interface monitoring) to openvpn | 10:49 |
| Wizzup | I don't use openvpn much, so it's a bit harder to test properly | 10:49 |
| freemangordon | in the meanwhile I finished calendar applets (there are couple of bugs to smash still, but kona can use them) | 10:49 |
| Wizzup | we decided not to have a big UX for openvpn to configure it, but rather have users install config files | 10:49 |
| Wizzup | nice, what parts are that on fremantle? | 10:49 |
| freemangordon | calendar-ui-widgets0 | 10:50 |
| Wizzup | I mean on the ux, since we have qalendar and I wasn't sure what was missing | 10:50 |
| Wizzup | s/ux/ui/ | 10:50 |
| freemangordon | this is color chooser in calendar/modest/osso-notes | 10:51 |
| Wizzup | ok | 10:51 |
| Wizzup | probably qalendar had a replacement | 10:51 |
| freemangordon | I guess so | 10:51 |
| dreamer | well, only one out of 5 devices giving issues. `FAILED (remote: 'Battery Low')` that I remember also having on my first unit | 12:21 |
| dreamer | so. need to find a replacement battery before I can reset it and add kexecboot | 12:22 |
| dreamer | (or I go through the hassle of grabbing a battery from one of the other units hehe) | 12:22 |
| Wizzup | dreamer: maybe just let it charge overnight to a wall charger | 12:33 |
| dreamer | Wizzup: yeah it was on wall-charger for several hours | 12:33 |
| dreamer | it says it's 70% on the charge screen | 12:34 |
| dreamer | will wait some more :) | 12:35 |
| lel | MerlijnWajer opened an issue: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/573 (Outstanding bugs/todo for libicd-{tor,wireguard,openvpn}-* and related cpa/status applets) | 13:02 |
| dreamer | says battery is ok this time, but having issues connecting the usb. maybe it's just faulty then | 13:39 |
| dreamer | it doesn't see the usb cable half the time | 13:39 |
| dreamer | ok found an angle of the cable/connector that seems to work best hehe. hope it stays positioned :# | 13:41 |
| dreamer | aaaand done \o/ | 13:47 |
| dreamer | will bring this stack of 4 to nurdspace soon so people can get one to play with (maybe I'll go to action today to get some microsd's ..) | 13:47 |
| dreamer | buZz: maybe we can do a little maemo-leste session at the nurd-inn. get a couple more people interested to poke around :) | 13:48 |
| hallyn | oh mabe that's the way i should go. i only looked for n900s on ebay, but didn't look for a multi-pack. i'll look this weekend. | 16:23 |
| kona | I picked up my n900 on ebay, single unit, seems to be in good condition. Looks like it was last used under fremantle in 2011 | 16:49 |
| kona | Freemangordon, calendar-ui-widgets? I guess modest might need, am on mobile atm | 16:50 |
| Wizzup | dreamer: cool | 17:59 |
| Wizzup | hallyn: a droid4 might be better than n900 if you have neither atm | 17:59 |
| hallyn | Wizzup: well i miss my n900 :) but i understand it would be less usable | 18:16 |
| buZz | hallyn: the hw is very very similar in droid4 | 18:34 |
| buZz | just thinner, bigger screen, bigger keyboard, more cpus , more ram , etc | 18:35 |
| buZz | plus not as expensive on used market | 18:35 |
| hallyn | orly | 18:40 |
| hallyn | ok i'll look at it thanks :) didn't realize it had a kbd. | 18:40 |
| hallyn | figured it was just another hunk of glass | 18:41 |
| buZz | its the -last- of the motorola TI devices that had one, afaik | 18:42 |
| uvos | Wizzup: no | 19:25 |
| uvos | tmlind: its https://github.com/IMbackK/droid4-linux/tree/touchscreen-buttons-510 | 19:35 |
| uvos | tmlind: its still 5.10 based | 19:35 |
| uvos | it still merged fine on 5.13 | 19:35 |
| uvos | if it fails now on 5.14 just tell me and i will rebase | 19:35 |
| tmlind | uvos: ok thanks | 20:10 |
