Wizzupunrelated, we really have to increase the limit of status applets in portait mode on the d401:20
Wizzupah, it's gconf01:22
Wizzupyeah that fixes it01:23
Wizzupgconftool-2 -s --type int /apps/osso/hildon-status-menu/view/number_of_rows_portrait 1201:23
Wizzupgconftool-2 -s --type int /apps/osso/hildon-status-menu/view/number_of_rows 1201:23
rafael2kWizzup: I think we can package libcamera indeed09:44
Wizzupok09:45
rafael2kand may be create an icon for with those "-r gles -platform xcb -style=fusion"09:45
rafael2kas without this, one can not really read what is written in parts of the UI09:45
Wizzuplibcamera has a ui?09:46
rafael2kthere is qcam09:46
Wizzupso we can make a .desktop icon for that if that's what we aim to use09:46
Wizzupdoes cheese work?09:46
rafael2kno, cheese not yet09:46
Wizzupok09:46
rafael2kat least latest time I trie09:46
rafael2kbut we need meson from backports, otherwise it will fail to build09:48
rafael2kI dunno how the build machine works... if this is possible09:48
rafael2kalso debhelper-compat from backports09:49
rafael2kand then it builds fine09:49
rafael2kalso, I completely rebased libcamera: https://github.com/rafael2k/libcamera09:50
rafael2kthe default branch is the correct to use (jmondi/pinephone)09:50
Wizzupanything we put in our repos will be used for building09:51
Wizzupand backports I think is enabled09:51
WizzupI will check in a bit, have a meeting first09:51
rafael2kso, just meson and debhelper-compat from backports09:51
rafael2kno rush...09:51
rafael2kwe could try to set debhelper-compat to 12 and see if it builds... I did not tried this yet09:53
rafael2kI just borrowed the debian dir from debian unstable09:53
Wizzupuvos: btw maybe I should try the droid 3 with 3d accel and see if it still hangs, it might be directly related to pvr10:47
uvosWizzup: i assume you mean without13:06
uvosi would first try not overclocking the device, if you have not done so13:07
uvosits not rated for 1.2Ghz unlike the d413:07
Wizzupyes13:07
Wizzuphm, I think I recall using cpufreq to downclock it13:08
Wizzupshould I try to change it in the dts?13:08
uvosi mean if you resitct the oop its fine for testing purposes13:08
uvosmotorola did overclock the bionic, even though its the same chip as d313:09
uvosbut dident do it for d313:09
uvosthey probubly had a reason for that13:09
uvosso i would def change it in dts too13:09
uvosthe d4 has a different chip thats rated at 1.2 by ti13:09
uvosanother think im highly suspicous of is the ram13:11
uvoswe just leave the ram clocks/timeings alone13:11
uvosbut the stock kernel changes those13:11
uvosin various oops13:11
Wizzuphm, I vaguely rememer doing htis, but I should try it again since I don't remember the deteails13:12
uvossince the d3 has a different dram chip, what we do on d4 might not be ok on d313:12
Wizzupso that would be the &cpu0 operation points?13:18
uvosyes13:18
Wizzupthe dram stuff, any hint where those are?13:19
uvosthey arnt there13:19
uvosits emif13:19
uvoswe dont have it13:19
Wizzupok13:19
uvostmlind tried adding it13:19
uvosbut it causes the device to not boot at all13:19
uvosi dont think he figured out why13:19
uvoswe just float the dram13:19
Wizzupso for now I can remove this at least:13:20
Wizzup        1200000 1375000                                                             |        pinctrl-single,pins = <13:20
uvos(ie not touch it at all and leave it as the stock kernel set it)13:20
uvosWizzup: yes13:20
Wizzupyeah, understood13:20
uvosthis floating has caused issues in the past13:20
uvosas the dram might be in a random operating point when we kexec13:20
Wizzupright13:20
uvosthe stock kernel on d3 might behave differently13:20
Wizzupright, so it might not be in a good state when it's handing it off to us13:22
Wizzupuvos: would I also have to change the operating lines points in clownboot?13:32
WizzupI don't think so, right13:32
uvosi mean not likey13:32
uvosunless its crashing in clownboot13:32
Wizzupagreed13:32
Kabouik_Hey Wizzup, hope you're doing great. Just a short message to check if any of you in the core Leste team has tried fiddling with the Pro1 (msm8998) yet? No pressure, it's just me bothering you at regular intervals to check if the dream OS is going to meet the dream device :P16:22
Kabouik_I had written some how-to based on Danct12's work on how to flash mainline (WIP) and pmOS on the Pro1: https://gist.github.com/Kabouik/40462ed099cdcd6a7c6d4e5d6500031616:23
Kabouik_Surely this could be used for Leste16:23
Wizzupparazyd still has my fxtec, and he's been MIA for many months16:24
Kabouik_I think last time I asked was somewhere in December, but your Pro1 was held hostage by someone else16:24
Wizzupthey're actually expensive, so I don't really want to buy one or ask for one, since they already sent me one for free.16:24
Kabouik_Oh, sad16:24
Wizzupbut it's with parazyd...16:24
WizzupI'd really love to play with them16:24
Kabouik_I didn't know he went MIA16:24
Wizzupwell if you get through to him, ask him to send my fxtec back :)16:24
Kabouik_Well when I get holidays, I'm happy to try anything with mine, it'd just be a lot more difficult than if you'd try directly yourself I guess16:25
Wizzuptrue, but if you manage to do it, you'd be an experience richer :D16:25
Kabouik_He's still connected here but I guess it's just a bouncer; did he have any active account on other platforms?16:26
Wizzupthis guide looks good btw16:26
Wizzupcan you boot from a microsd?16:26
Kabouik_Hum I haven't touched it since December, I'm not sure anymore. Probably not I'd say, but will need to check16:26
Wizzupyou basically need a working kernel with display, and the rest we can help with16:27
Kabouik_Well the kernel already works with display, just touchscreen is unusable (too much noise that's not well silenced with mainline, while the Android kernel presumably uses dirty hacks to silence that noise)16:28
Wizzuplooking at this: https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/merge_requests/298416:28
Kabouik_Yes that was the game changer, thanks to Danct16:28
Wizzuplooks like it just needs a few patches16:29
Kabouik_Danct is still active too, but I don't think they've worked on it since then (I asked in a TG group just 10 min ago)16:29
Kabouik_(Still awaiting answer)16:29
Wizzupok16:29
Wizzuplet me know, we can make a kernel package (or merge it into a kernel package) and build a kernel16:29
Wizzupmaking the images and kernel is not that hard (anymore)16:29
Kabouik_Great16:30
Kabouik_Actually it might be worth bringing together the people who might want to get involved, I'm thinking Danct12, yourself, Angelo (Kholk, who did most of the mainlining, but I don't know how to reach him directly except from Twitter but he doesn't answer so far), maybe Luca (multiboot, possibly SD boot), and I as the stupid crash tester who's got a device to test things16:31
WizzupI can't promise too much of my time, especially with a device16:31
Wizzuphow much do they cost nowadays?16:31
Kabouik_Probably still about the same since they're very hard to source16:31
Wizzupbtw you probably know of this: https://github.com/NotKit/maemo-leste-fxtec-pro1-debos/ which is the libhybris based thing16:32
Kabouik_Basically only available second hand16:32
Wizzupoh, really?16:32
Wizzuphow is that?16:32
Kabouik_There's the Pro1x, shipping starting this week, but it's using SD662 so basically the mainlining work is to restart from scratch. In the end it'd be great to have mainline for both really16:32
Wizzupright..16:33
Kabouik_I'll get one too, will be able to test too, but I think we still have time before mainline is around the corner for it. Supposedly Angelo is working on mainlining it though.16:33
Kabouik_Yes I know about NotKit's work about libhybris Leste but last time I checked, it was lacking instructions to use it for mere mortals like me; I should bother NotKit again16:34
Kabouik_https://community.fxtec.com/topic/3125-pro1-for-private-sale-post-sale-or-question-on-a-sale-here-please-do-not-post-requests-to-buy/page/11/#comments they go for about 600-650€ in mint condition16:35
Kabouik_Cheaper when damaged16:35
Kabouik_But they're still rare16:35
Kabouik_The Pro1x deliveries might promote some Pro1 sales, hopefully16:35
Kabouik_There has been really cheap Pro1 sales though (even one that was given for free on the forum, sadly I'm not sure it was to a developer, the generous donator wanted it to be given to a local around his place)16:36
Wizzupah16:41
Wizzupwell 600 isn't too bad I suppose, if mainline is mostly working16:41
Kabouik_https://github.com/parazyd Parazyd is alive16:41
Kabouik_I mean he's actie on Github, so it might be worth trying his email or Twitter16:43
Wizzupgo for it, I tried and it didn't work16:45
Kabouik_Sad16:45
Kabouik_I'll give it a try16:45
Kabouik_I've sent him an email, we'll see; else we can still get back to the less optimal situation where you're the brain and I'm the hands holding a Pro1 :p16:55
Wizzupokay, let's see16:57
