norayrsicelo - does that mean tux racer will have the controls via accelerometer?00:38
buZzhah :D00:40
* buZz apt install extremetuxracer00:41
stintelany idea how to fix this?... (full message at <https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/libera.chat/44dfe672acc0f3664603f8d63cbb1625e39a838a>)00:42
buZzstintel: its dbus-x11, maybe force update it first00:43
buZzi think someone else just uninstalled and reinstalled it00:43
stintelactually I just fixed it with dpkg --configure -a00:45
buZz1665772009 <rafael2k> force-removed dbus-x11 and installed it again00:45
buZz1665772021 <rafael2k> : )00:45
buZzah, very nice!00:45
buZzstintel: what device are you running on?00:45
stintelPineTab00:45
buZzooo fancy00:46
buZzhave you made any videos of it running? :) would love to see00:46
stintelI haven't00:46
buZzi assume you run hildon on it?00:46
stintelI don't even know what hildon is :P00:47
stintelbut ps aux confirms00:48
buZzhehe, hildon is the window manager / desktop environment of maemo00:49
buZzwith the zoomy task manager, and all windows fullscreen, etc00:49
buZz:)00:49
stintelgotcha, I tried maemo leste because it was being talked about on the IRC channel of the local hacker lab00:49
buZznice :) i'm in a hackerspace now too00:50
buZzhttps://nurdspace.nl/00:50
stinteldidn't work because wrong dtb in boot script, managed to fix that, then Wizzup did some things to hopefully make it a little faster :P00:50
buZzcool :)00:50
stintelit's usable with the hw keyboard, but not liking the on-screen keyboard00:52
buZzhmhm yeah its from a different age :)00:53
stintelbut sometimes comes in handy, as my xps13 has a battery that survives maybe 5 minutes, and it has few broken keys00:53
buZzi use a droid4 mostly, and i never use it non-portrait00:53
buZzand just slide out the keyboard00:54
stintelhmmm I should comment out some stuff in /etc/locale.gen :P00:58
buZzhahaha , yeah lol00:58
buZzon d4 making locales also takes forever00:58
buZzi should try it on n900 :P00:59
buZznorayr: you lied! haha01:06
buZzextreme tux racer doesnt have opengles support :)01:06
buZzbut some forks exist01:06
norayri didn't lie, i was asking if it'll work with accelerometer.01:44
buZz:)02:00
buZzi dont think it'll be a /dev/input/js0 directly?02:01
buZzare the xoom/xyboards interesting? i see they have omap4430 aswell02:20
buZzalso ; https://liliputing.com/motorola-xyboard-tablets-get-global-4g-lte-roaming/02:25
nedko'lo09:26
uvos__buZz: if you run iio-uinput there will be a js010:44
uvos__btw this is a depricated interface that no modern game uses10:45
uvos__or modern middleware like sdl10:45
uvos__buZz: also yes the mz6xx have a totaly different modem that can do lots of lte bands10:50
uvos__they are the only mapphone to be able to do so10:50
norayrbuZz: those look very cool.16:02
norayri need a tablet, that would be great to have leste on such a thing.16:02
buZznorayr: yeah , i wonder if modem inside is similar16:02
buZzyeah!16:02
buZzi dont really 'need' a tablet, but still :D16:02
norayrmodems i don't use anyway.  (:16:02
buZz8" is such a nice formfactor for a tablet16:03
buZzi did find some people on xda that claim running linux on it16:03
buZzlike https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/motorola-xoom-running-debian-with-kde-4-natively-without-chroot.1192639/16:05
buZzjust > Please follow LIV2's original tutorial and note my changes below:16:05
buZz-what- tutorial :D16:05
buZzah https://github.com/LIV2/LIV2-Xoom-GNU16:05
buZz2.6.x , lol16:05
norayri actually need a tablet i think. (: we have a very small flat, and i never had a tv, and i don't want to have one. so tablet would fit well in a small env to watch a movie or something together.16:06
buZznorayr: did you see the 'nreal air glasses' ?16:07
norayrlaptop would fit as well, but laptop has a keyboard part, which takes too much space on the table, if the table is small and you also want to have teapot and cups on it. (:16:07
norayrnever heard of those.16:07
norayrlet me search.16:07
buZzhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BF5LKP5Q16:08
buZzkinda like a modern Sony Glasstron that doesnt look like a cyborg16:08
norayromg is this something new?16:08
buZzyes16:09
norayrcool. except that i don't want to have android/ios smartphone.16:09
norayrinteresting if it has some api to work.16:10
norayrwhat is the resolution?16:10
* norayr has no idea which resolution is good for such things16:13
* norayr helped to configure in early 2000s a helpet from 90ies which worked under dos, and had pretty low res for that time too. and no colours.16:14
norayr s/helpet/helmet16:14
norayr vm thing.16:14
norayrthat is my only experience with vr.16:15

norayris there a manual to install debian on that thing?16:59
norayri don't understand those xda instructions yet.16:59
buZzsupposedly, yeah , something written by 'liv2' who made that 2.6.x kernel repo17:00
norayrthose seem to be necessary after one installed debian...17:00
norayrokay, let me see.17:00
norayrinteresting.17:00
buZzah, here; https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/got-my-xoom-running-debain-native-without-chroot.1138661/17:00
buZzthe xoom and xyboard seem to be the same product? somewhat17:00
buZzi found 4 models with that name, they all had OMAP4430 and 1GB ram17:01
buZzoh huh, this thread suggests its a Tegra :O17:01
WizzupI think there are many xoom tabblets17:08
Wizzupmz609 and mz617 are the omap ones17:08
buZzare they very droid4 alike?17:15
buZzin modem etc17:15
buZzah meh, there's only a keyboard case for the 10" one :P17:15

norayron how to port an old fremantle package to leste22:57
norayrhttps://leste.maemo.org/Development/Porting_Packages22:58
norayroh there are a couple of problems yet.23:00
norayrlet me fix.23:00
Wizzuplooking like a good start23:03
Wizzupsome of the formatting can be fixed I think23:03
norayryeah, initially i wrote it in markdown, now converting somehow to mediawiki syntax. and sorry, i used lowercase letters, as always.23:10
norayri fixed two images, those are now shown, and one link to the script.23:10
norayrno... to the file, which is hosted on my server.23:10
uvosbtw23:10
uvoswhen saveing the base64 png image23:10
uvosits mutch better to remove all the metadata/ tumbnail and other crap usualy saved with a png23:11
uvosin a small icon sized image that can be 80% of the size23:11
norayrno idea how. it would be amazing if you add that info.23:13
norayralso... does anyone know how to replace markdown's `something` quotes in wiki syntax?23:13
Wizzupprobably optipng can do it23:13
Wizzupoptipng -strip all23:14
norayris that done between 'prepare 48x48 file' and  'base64 encode it' ?23:15
norayri put it there anyway.23:27
