Wizzupuvos: I forgot, when moving microsds to other droid4s, do I need to recalibrate the wifi?09:32
Wizzupyeah right09:36

Wizzuphey I also get rafael's error now, wrt dbus issues09:36
Wizzupthat's just a new image, and then apt-get dist-upgrade09:38
Wizzupwith -devel enabled09:38
_uvos_Wizzup: what device? i see nothing on my usual xt894/xt875 installs11:58
Wizzup_uvos_ I solved it by installed iphbd first and then running dist-upgrade12:13
freemangordonWizzup: modesetting/glamor work on my q814:07
Wizzupnice14:09
freemangordonbut looks slow14:09

Wizzupmhm, is it with lima?14:09

Wizzupthe tablet has mali400 I think14:10

Wizzupmhm14:14
Wizzupthere's so many people at the stand I am losing my voice14:14
freemangordon:)14:14
buZzWizzup: cool!14:15
buZztake some pictures of the stand with people standing there! its good promotion to show on twitter etc14:15
Wizzupyeah I should ask someone to do that14:16
buZz<314:16
buZzWizzup: be sure to tweet -during- event to invite people to the stand & talk too ;)15:54
dreamerI think buZz wants a job in leste-PR ;)16:11
buZzdreamer: if you look at the retweets of /maemoleste , you might think i already have ;)16:14
dreamerhehe16:16
* buZz RTs a bunch of new-ish tweets about leste :P16:18
WizzupbuZz: sorry probably too much for me to do all at once :D16:23
buZz<316:24
buZznp16:24
buZzsuch a drag always, rebooting droid4 with 'fully charged' battery, comes back up, and doesnt know how full the battery is anymore17:01
buZz:(17:01
buZzneed to charge the ~1% back up to hit 'fully charged' again before it knows17:01
flokthe screensaver in the qemu image doesn't get out of screensaved mode?18:14
freemangordonpress the power button18:15
freemangordonyou can disable if you wish18:15
freemangordonsettings->display18:15
freemangordonset timeout to 018:15
flokoh of course, makes sense. now i have to figure out how to slide the button as my mousecursor is not visible (wasn't that documented on the wiki? let me check)18:16
Wizzuphi18:19
flokah, usb-mouse18:20
Wizzupflok: were you at openfest today?18:22
flokno18:22
flokI was talking to buZz and he made me intriqued18:22
Wizzupah, ok :)18:22
flokintrigued18:22
Wizzupcool18:25
flokmade a few changes to the wiki (sudo su -   should really be sudo -i and you need to configure an usb mouse in virt-manager)18:25
Wizzupisn't sudo -i preserving the environment?18:29
Wizzupoh right, no,18:29
Wizzupsudo su - indeed is not ideal18:29
flokjust a minor pet-peeve of mine :-)18:31
flokhaha cool, httping works! now I can httping on my phone! :-)18:31
flokI googled for it, but is there a list of phones that are compatible with the current maemo?18:37
Wizzupthe wiki should have a list, but it's pretty short, so I can type it here:18:38
Wizzupmotorola droid 4, motorola bionic, nokia n900, pinephone18:39
Wizzupthere will be more motorola phones, and maybe more nokia phones added to the list later18:39
freemangordonWizzup: does usb otg work on your olimex?18:39
freemangordonI can't make it work here and it drives me mad :D18:40
flokok. should I still use madde if I want to develop for maemo? or can I use qtcreator (without the 2010 madde plugin) as well?18:40
freemangordonflok: VM is what we use for development18:40
freemangordonfor qt stuff I guess it is tricky, as we move to qt518:41
freemangordon*moved18:41
flokok18:41
freemangordonyou don;t really need madde as you simply ssh to device and do whatever you want to18:41
freemangordonfor example - I compiled mesa several times on d4 ;)18:42
freemangordontakes time, but still18:42
flokI worked with QTcreator at work a few years ago, nice environment18:42
freemangordonI still prefer it over any other IDE18:42
freemangordonmy usual workflow is - ssh mount from my pc to virtualbox VM18:43
freemangordonqtcreator to remotely edit the files18:43
Wizzupfreemangordon: I didn't try18:43
freemangordonand then build and test in vm18:43
Wizzupfreemangordon: maybe make sure that ke-recv doesn't mess with you18:43
freemangordonWizzup: well, neither host nor peripheral modes work18:44
Wizzupsry, don't know18:44
freemangordonI can stop ke-recv ofc18:44
freemangordonok18:44
Wizzupke-recv should help with the modes18:45
Wizzupmaybe some config is missing18:45
freemangordonI enabled everything I found18:52
freemangordonand actually lsusb listst 2 hubs18:52
freemangordon*lists18:52
Wizzupis the configfs for usb also on?18:55
freemangordonyes18:57
buZzWizzup: flok was looking for the cheapest device to run leste on :P19:25
xmnI mean you have limited choices here no? n900, moto, Pinephone, ....what else?19:44
n900bah @ moto & pinephone!20:45
* n900 hides20:45
xmnhaha20:46
xmnI'm been using my PP for about 2 weeks now as my daily. Since my n900 keyboard keep dropping keys caps :(. It been okay, better then before. But not yet a good replace for my trusted n900.20:47
siceloflok: mentioning madde makes me think you worked on n900/maemo before?20:54
floksicelo: never. I'm trying to get into development for the platform and I was skimming the wiki for that. there I saw that madde mentioned a few times.20:55
freemangordonflok: do you know what madde stands for?21:16
flokno, not yet :)21:16
freemangordonMAD DEveloper :)21:17
xmnlol21:18
freemangordonyeah, nokians used to have sense of humor21:18
sicelo;-)21:21
WizzupbuZz: bionic or d421:22
freemangordonWizzup: hmm, I cannot enable audio either22:00
freemangordonall modules are loaded but there is no alsa device22:00
freemangordon:(22:00
freemangordonoh, wait22:00
freemangordonit is here :)22:00
poorboiHi. since you guys likely to have n900s around, how's it's battery life in aftermarke t battries?.22:24
sicelodepends on the aftermarket battery itself. and of course, with Maemo Leste and linux mainline, there's no good power management for N900 yet22:28
sicelopolarcell has generally made the best N900 batteries22:28
poorboiwhat about CSSU?22:29
sicelothat has quite good power management, yes. polarcells are highly recommended, although i'm not sure if they still make new ones22:30
poorboihow long they would last in normal daily usage?22:32
freemangordonand of course glamor refuses to play videos :(22:32
sicelopoorboi: depends on your usage ... but at idle, N900 running Maemo Fremantle with gprs connected draws about 4mA22:34
sicelowith active use throughout the day, it was possible to get a complete day ... i think in 2022 you might get more :-p22:35
sicelobecause you might use it a bit less (since almost all browsing doesn't work anymore)22:35
sicelopoorboi: you recently obtained N900?22:36
poorboino, but found one place which sells it with the same price of a 128022:36
poorboii already have a smart phone, with a poor battery. i wonder if should give up on neat software and take 1280 with good? (how much?) battery or get the n900.22:38
siceloi see. well, nowadays it might make better sense to get something else besides N900, e.g. Motorola Droid 4 or some other phone supported by the mainline kernel22:38
sicelobut ... it all depends on what really makes sense to you for *your* needs and use-cases22:38
siceloif decision is 1280 vs. N900 ... i'd always pick N900 :-p22:39
sicelobut the 1280 probably needs to charge only once a month, heh22:39
poorboisicelo: 4mA / m?22:41
siceloat around 3.8v, the current draw is 4mA ... i.e. about 15mW. what's /m?22:45
poorboiminute :)22:46
poorboii barely know any electrics.22:46
xmnCrazy how well the n900 battery lasted when compared to the PP. And the Polarcell is a great supplier. I'm running them right now. All other don't hold charge after a short time cycling through charges.23:43
