freemangordon | ugh https://github.com/maemo-leste/libhildon/blob/master/hildon/hildon-touch-selector-entry.c#L503 | 08:25 |
---|---|---|
freemangordon | what is worse is that it seems the behaviour has changed | 08:25 |
freemangordon | so g_convert_with_iconv returns NULL instead of question marks | 08:28 |
freemangordon | so we have a segfault as soon as we want to insert non-english text there | 08:28 |
freemangordon | please someone have a look https://github.com/maemo-leste/libhildon/commit/b9d266e9285866a5b48d767114916f585b974998 | 08:53 |
freemangordon | bencoh: Wizzup: humpelstilzchen[: uvos: is there something obviously wrong? ^^^ | 08:54 |
bencoh | freemangordon: how did it "got worse"? | 11:09 |
bencoh | get* | 11:10 |
freemangordon | bencoh: see the commit message | 11:22 |
bencoh | Yeah, I've read it, but I'm still wondering what happened for it to get worse and no longer work at all | 11:22 |
freemangordon | returns NULL, thus segfault | 11:23 |
freemangordon | ah, no idea why they changed it | 11:23 |
bencoh | :) | 11:23 |
freemangordon | on my ubuntu 12.04 it returns ???? | 11:23 |
freemangordon | not null | 11:23 |
bencoh | is strncmp() really supposed to work on gchar* btw? | 11:35 |
bencoh | or is it some kind of hack? | 11:36 |
bencoh | s/hack/abuse/ | 11:36 |
bencoh | (I didn't see anything obviously wrong) | 11:37 |
freemangordon | bencoh: see the note https://docs.gtk.org/glib/func.strncasecmp.html | 11:43 |
bencoh | ah, nice | 11:47 |
hexagonwin_ | Hello. I tried Maemo Leste on QEMU and found it interesting and I would want to buy a device for it. Nokia N900 and Motorola Droid 4 seems well supported, but it seems like they are very hard to find. Is Maemo Leste well working on the PinePhone (without physical keyboard)? Also, I found out "Motorola Droid Bionic" is a similar device with the Droid 4 but is easier to find, is the only major difference non-working modem for ML? And what's the | 15:56 |
hexagonwin_ | major difference with Droid 4 hardware-wise? Please let me know if this is not the right place to ask. Thanks :D | 15:56 |
bencoh | hexagonwin_: bionic has no keyboard, apart from that it is quite close to droid4 | 16:00 |
hexagonwin_ | Oh, I thought it had one, lol. If you do know, could you please tell me where I can get a N900/D4? There seems to be almost none on e*ay. | 16:02 |
bencoh | I bought mine on ebay a long time ago (4~5y iirc) | 16:03 |
bencoh | Wizzup hunts those from time to time, he talked about buying several units from a single seller recently, dunno where this stands | 16:04 |
bencoh | (droid4 that is) | 16:05 |
hexagonwin_ | Alright, I would have to hunt ebay then. lol. How well does Maemo Leste work on devices without physical keyboard? | 16:06 |
hexagonwin_ | And, would it be a lot of work to get a device already working well on mainline linux to work in Maemo Leste? (ex : Bunch of 8916 phones like Galaxy A5) | 16:07 |
bencoh | if you already have Xorg running with accelerated graphics, porting leste might not be that hard | 16:12 |
bencoh | the phone part is another story though | 16:12 |
bencoh | (people managed to run leste in some container in android btw) | 16:13 |
bencoh | as for the absence of physical keyboard, I read recently that gtk2 apps have proper virtual keyboard support, gtk3/qt is still WIP (this might have changed since then) | 16:14 |
norayr | root@devuan-pinephone:/sys/bus/iio/devices# find . | grep -i lum | 16:20 |
norayr | gives nothing | 16:20 |
norayr | no ambient light sensor in new kernel | 16:20 |
norayr | for some reason. | 16:20 |
hexagonwin_ | It seems like the N900 is able to do screen-out to composite, is it impossible for Droid 4 to do screen-out using composite/rgb or any? Thanks. | 16:33 |
bencoh | droid4 has a microhdmi port, you could always connect that to some hdmi->composite converter | 16:35 |
hexagonwin_ | Thanks a lot :) | 16:44 |
sicelo | hexagonwin_: on msm8916, maemo leste will definitely run | 18:05 |
_uvos_ | we support, the n900, the droid 4, the droid bionic and the pinephone well | 19:15 |
_uvos_ | keyboard input via vkb works in all toolkits, but on non gtk2 toolkits its usage is a bit wonky | 19:15 |
_uvos_ | even where the vkb works great non hwkbd phones are not ideal because the vkb is not that great and because while you can compensate small/ hard to use desktop uis using keyboard schortcuts and the arrow keys for navigation, this is not possible on the vkb | 19:17 |
_uvos_ | the droid 4 has gotten quite rare in ebay. | 19:18 |
_uvos_ | you can have ebay infrom you on search results via email | 19:19 |
_uvos_ | i would use that on us ebay if you want one | 19:19 |
_uvos_ | droid bionics are easy to get and cheep as chips | 19:19 |
_uvos_ | droid 3 are also somewhat easy to get, its hardware is almost the same as the d4 and leste works on it too, except that currently you cant change the screen brightness | 19:20 |
_uvos_ | and its more unsable than d4 | 19:20 |
lel | IMbackK closed an issue: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/609 (hildon application manager: hide debug symbol packages) | 21:28 |
norayr | Wizzup: i believe pp kernel doesn't show (anymore) ambient light meter information in /sys/class/iio | 23:16 |
norayr | should i open an issue about it? | 23:16 |
uvos | norayr: explain symptoms | 23:17 |
