udderdmesg says that ap do not ack (or something like this)00:03
uddercurrently i succesfully boot into leste and everything work again00:04
Wizzupif u-boot does not see the sd card, does removing the battery solve it? (just to unpower it)00:04
udderno00:05
Wizzuphmm00:06

rafael2kconcerning freemangordon pinephone kernel complain (https://github.com/maemo-leste/pine64-kernel/issues/7), could anyone also confirm this behavior?10:29
rafael2kI'll only to able to get my pp next week10:29
rafael2kif it is true, I would jump to kernel 6.0... something like this https://github.com/megous/linux/tree/pp-6.010:30
rafael2kmight even try vanilla upstream to see how much patching we still need10:30
Wizzupwe need maemo patches10:31
rafael2knot considering maemo patches10:31
rafael2kthey are minimal10:31
rafael2kand ok to be there10:31
rafael2kMobian patchset was still huge in 5.1510:32
rafael2kbut afaics, patchset for 6.0 at least in Megi's fork is muuuuch smaller10:33
Wizzupyes10:36
Wizzupbut it might lack defconfig changes that10:36
Wizzupwe need10:36
Wizzuprafael2k: also for me usbnet doesn't work on the PP10:36
Wizzupso I was thinking that might have been a config change too10:36
Wizzup(either that or the sysfs path changed)10:36
rafael2kright10:41
rafael2kwe are using Mobian kernel config, apart of very small changes not to have initrd10:41
Wizzupwell it's a problem for debugging for sure10:43
WizzupI think I lost wifi on one of the kernels and had no easy way in other than serial10:43
Wizzupso maybe we can re-add the usbnet, since we also use it for mass storage etc10:43
rafael2kit is not there? are you sure?10:44
WizzupI don't get usb net when I plug it in10:44
Wizzupmaybe it changed somehow to make this not valid https://github.com/maemo-leste/ke-recv/blob/master/src/udev-helper.c#L10110:45
rafael2kcan you check if the module is loaded?10:45
Wizzupnot atm, because I had no easy access10:45
rafael2ksome as me here10:45
rafael2k*same10:45
rafael2kManjaro applies some patches to Megi's fork: https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/core/linux-pinephone/-/tree/6.0-megi10:50
rafael2kremoving some garbage Megi likes to add (like a char devfile "modem-power" out of his head)10:51
rafael2kthis might be a good path to follow too10:51
rafael2kif anyone finds where Mobian kernel is... that would be good to know too10:51
rafael2kthey removed from gitlab and now I dunno where it is anymmore10:52
rafael2kbut certainly we need to make sure maemo features we want are enabled in .config10:52
rafael2kconcerning the usb net, if modprobing the module works, we can just change from M to Y the module, that one is the easiest to solve I think10:55
Wizzupthat is not it10:55
Wizzupwe have userspace the uses configfs to make composite gadgets10:56
rafael2khum10:56
Wizzup(which is the right way to do it), but that that requires most things to be a module and some of the hardcoded ones are not even enabled10:56
rafael2kif not enabled, that is easy too10:57
rafael2kN -> M10:57
WizzupI understand, but we need to enable the right things10:57
rafael2kthis kernel has most of the drivers as modules already10:58
rafael2kanyway10:58
rafael2kall in all, the specifics stuff needed by Maemo are minor, and could be documented in order we don't o try this again10:59
rafael2k*we don't go thought this again11:00
freemangordonrafael2k: could be an issue on braveheart only (iowait %)11:08
freemangordonwork mtg ATM, ttyl11:08
rafael2khey!11:16
rafael2kfreemangordon: as soon as I power my PP I will run the tests you did11:16
rafael2khttps://blog.brixit.nl/why-i-left-pine64/11:16
rafael2keheheheheh11:16
rafael2ksome people got very upset with pine64, understandably11:17
sicelodistro wars :p11:18
rafael2kI had my share of anger with the pp keyboard. I bought a bt keyboard now, will test is as soon as I turn it on again11:18
rafael2kindeed11:18
rafael2khe was the guy which wrote the only camera app for the PP11:20
rafael2kkind of important for the ecosystem...11:20
rafael2kand after his quit, no more commits to the app (Megapixels), understandably11:21
freemangordontmlind: hmm, seems my ofono patches didn't make it to the ML, any idea?11:37
Wizzupit might be a moderated list11:42
freemangordonI doubt, by looking at https://www.mail-archive.com/ofono@ofono.org/maillist.html11:44
freemangordon"wedding planners in kolkata" eh? :D11:44
Wizzupheh11:45
Daanct12lol11:48
Daanct12yeah, this ml is totally fucked up11:49
norayri connected droid4 to bionic lapdock and it boots.17:58
Wizzup cool18:00
freemangordonhmm, cannot join #ofono@oftc18:04
freemangordonhow nice18:05
Wizzup how so?18:05

freemangordonanyway, ttyl18:07
uvosall lapdocks are intercompatabil18:18
uvosexcept the one for atrix18:19
uvoshildon however is buggy and dosen survie you plugging in a lapdock18:19
uvos(it breaks whenever the display changes resolution for any reason)18:19
norayrheh, so i saw how it boots, but it also takes charge from the lapdock. and i noticed droid4 misbehaves when it is being charged.18:48
norayrso it never opened hildon probably18:48
norayrbut i gan see tho mouse pointer on droid's screen18:48
norayri often need to take the droid out of the wire in order to use it18:48
norayrotherwise i cannot unlock it.18:48
norayrso now it is being charged by the lapdoock thus it is unusable.18:48
norayri suspect the problem is also that it is being charged18:51
norayrcan i edit some xinitrc and wmaker?18:51
norayrand use wmaker18:51
norayrwhat happens if i boot to android? i get old ubuntu container?18:51
norayrplease please tell me how to run wmaker, where to write it? or how to kill xorg so i could start it by hand?18:52
uvosif you boot android 2.3 you get old ubuntu (based) linux18:56
uvosif you boot android 4+ you get the tablet interface18:56
uvosunfortionatly letste absolutly breaks linux usual session managment with fairly terrible hackery18:57
uvosyou have to disable the leste stuff (the xsession scripts, and some other stuff (af services dbus and gconf hackery))18:57
uvosthen you can run a wm via xsession or a xdg-session via some session manager (tinydm works well)18:58
norayrI have android 4 on droid 4.18:59
uvosyou also cant have another wm running in a different vt, bacuse the omap ddx is broken and dies when you vt switch18:59
uvoshonsetly i would avoid leste alltogether if running the lapdock18:59
uvosand just run plain debian18:59
norayrOh19:00
uvoswith a wayland vm of your choice19:00
norayrhow can i flash plain debian to sdcard?19:00
uvoswm/display server19:00
uvosuse debootstrap to create a debian rootfs19:00
uvosflash that19:00
norayrno no my wm of cdoice is wmaker and it works with  xorg19:00
uvosadd leste kernel19:00
norayroh19:01
uvosbut this is really out of scope for this chat19:01
uvosyou could also start with leste19:01
norayrwdt if i kill xorg19:01
uvosand end up with devuan19:01
norayrand use user's xinitrc to shart my desired wm?19:01
uvosworks fine with leste packages for xorg and the ddx (which you can install fine on debain)19:01
uvosno19:02
uvosyou have to uninstall all of the leste stuff19:02
uvosexcept kernel xorg the ddx19:02
uvossome other stuff19:02
uvosie remove hildon, and particually dsme and af-services19:02
norayrokay i see, i can uninstall leste stuff on one sdcard and have leste with hildon on other.19:02
uvossure19:03
uvosor just a different partition19:03
uvoshopefully hildon will someday sanely support session management19:03
norayrgreat thanks for the tips19:03
Guest224uvos: What makes Lapdock for Altrix different? (I have that with Rasperry Pi2(!), it wasn't easy get work, because it gives wrong EDID)19:21
Guest224(and ofcourse Pi2 needed quite special cables, but not needed cable with button like Lapdock 500 pro)19:45
Guest224btw..if somebody need this information Lapdock 500 Pro only resolution is 1366x768/60hz..I haven't tested it yet with Leste. Is Lapdocks supported at all in Leste?19:56
Wizzupno, we never had one19:56
Guest224somebody sell in ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/36391567032420:00
WizzupI could maybe pick one up in October20:01
Guest224basically Lapdocks are HDMI-displays with support only one resolution and usb-hub with usb-devices (ports)20:07
Guest224500 Pro might need something to get started (I have cable with pushbutton with Pi2), easiest to find more information is read stories of Raspberry users.20:10
Wizzupyeah I do know htem20:14
Wizzupwe just haven't made it a priority/focus atm20:14
Guest224yes, after almost everything else works.20:15
Guest224even PinePhone Docking Bar would be before that.20:16
Guest224But I have cable from PinePhone Docking Bar to Motorola Lapdock 500 Pro ready to waiting hard core Leste tests :D20:23
Guest224-> I continue lurking thru irclog.21:17
uvos__Guest224: atrix lapdock is physically incompatabil22:05
uvos__all the other lapdocks have just a loose cradle and a cable22:06
uvos__the atrix lapdock has a mold that fits just around the atrix and fixed connectors (that are also the wrong way around for every other motoroala phone that was compatbil with lapdocks, mapphone or otherwise)22:06
uvos__other than that if you mess with the connectors to make it fit it should work22:07
uvos__the other "standard" lapdock is also generally nicer22:07
uvos__keyboard/toucpad22:07
uvos__than the atrix one22:07
Guest224uvos: ahh..that's true altrix has connector order swaped.22:11
Guest224but anyway maybe altrix lapdock is usefull with special cables for droid 4 someday...month..year..decade...22:24
