buZzuvos: no this was 'always' like this00:00
buZzat least, as long as i've been using leste :P00:00
buZzuvos: but, it wasnt locked, there was no unlocking, i just pressed a keyboard key00:01
buZzunless thats tklock who turns the screen on then?00:01
uvosno00:01
uvostklock has a transparant window00:01
uvosthat intercepts all key input00:01
buZzwhich turns the backlight off?00:01
uvosno00:01
buZzhmm00:01
uvosbut its there when the backlight is off00:01
uvosor dim00:02
buZzah, like that00:02
buZzsooooo, sounds like tklock could maybe improve with something like a XTest feature that 'forwards' the keys to something else?00:02
uvosno00:03
uvostklock just has to go away00:03
uvosit has no purpose00:03
buZzok but 'i'm not using it' doesnt really help00:03
buZzisnt tklock the slide-lock thing of maemo?00:03
uvosno00:03
uvosthats vtklock00:03
buZzthey sound related? :)00:03
uvosnot really00:04
uvosname only00:04
buZzYour search - "vtklock" maemo - did not match any documents.00:04
buZzmeh00:04
uvosanyhow so i gues whats happening here is: while the display is off mce tells xorg to unbind all input devices, this is nesscary for pm.00:05
uvosyou click once and mce registers that and turns on display and also tels x to turn rebind the intput devices00:06
buZzi didnt click a single time ;)00:06
buZzthe 'button on keyb' i mentioned was on the keyboard00:06
uvosyes that a click00:06
uvosyou click again and now tlock intercepts the keypress00:07
buZzok :)00:07
buZzcant xorg manage the display on/off ?00:07
uvosbecause it dident get the first click, because it depends on what order the above happend in, wich depends on the module order in mce and how fast xorg reacts to mces commands00:07
uvosyes and it should00:08
uvosand could00:08
* buZz tries how this works on n900 (still on leste)00:08
uvosyou could have wirtten a xorg module to do the mce lock/display behavior and that would have been way batter00:08
buZzshould be the same, right?00:08
uvosbut nokia are fools00:09
buZzi'm still quite confused about the role of each nokia application in this whole thing :P00:09
uvosbuZz: no so on freemantle00:09
uvosmce uses a custom sysfs interface nokia hacked into the kernel00:09
buZzyeah its leste00:10
uvosto disable the input devices at the kernel level00:10
uvosalso the module load order is totaly different00:10
buZzah, leste-n900 is the same, needs 3x keypress from 'dimmed' to receiving 1 key on xterm00:10
buZzuvos: also a source of confusion for me, how can i trigger battery calibration now?00:18
buZzshouldnt it recalibrate each time after 'battery low' -> 'fully charged' ?00:18
buZzor is there a step 'below' batterylow00:19
Wizzupmaybe one of these is a focus loss problem00:24
tvallrandom question. i have 2 bionics and only 1 spare microsd. could i shove leste in the data partition? would that anger the locked bootloader? will kexecboot find it there?00:43
uvostvall: https://uvos.xyz/maserati/LesteXT894EmmcInstall.txt00:45
uvostvall: works fine, note that the partion numbers are off by one on xt875 vs xt896 i forget wich way00:45
uvosbuZz: the kernel fully automaticly dose it00:46
uvosthe kernel will recalculate the value any time it sees empty and full in the same boot00:46
uvoswhile not charging too btw00:47
uvosfor empty00:47
buZzbut, is empty the 'battery low' msg in maemo?00:47
uvosno00:47
buZzor one below it?00:47
uvosits related to the irq00:47
uvoswich is complexly sorta related to the message but not really00:47
buZzhmmz00:48
uvosthe best way to trigger a callibration imo00:48
uvosis to boot with the device being empty into charge mode00:49
buZzyeah just not sure if i'm ever hitting 'empty'00:49
uvosand then remove the plug for 1 sec00:49
uvosand then re add it00:49
uvos<1 sec00:49
buZzor if its still 'empty' when its booting into charge-mode00:49
buZzthe boot (from connecting usb on powered down device) might already be charging it beyond 'empty'00:49
uvosthe kernel dose see empty on ocasion in regular use too00:49
uvos(maybe not if your battery is really bad)00:50
uvosbut yes it is somewhat unreliable beacuse of noise issues00:50
buZzyeah mine is very bad supposedly :P00:50
buZz(but with my old kernel mods for voltage, still ~1350mAh)00:50
uvosbecause the voltage rail is really noizy somtimes the kernel can also really unterreport the battery capcaity00:50
uvosi have had the nexus 4 battery that ussaly callibrates to around 1900 callibrate to less than 1200 on occasion00:51
uvos*noisy00:51
buZzyeah, i did calibration on older leste versions with playing a mp4 fullscreen on loop00:51
buZz~800 , but while just mosh&gprs, ~1100 on the normal voltages00:52
rafael2k_I made a mirror of libcamera with the debian dir for us here: https://github.com/rafael2k/libcamera10:41
rafael2k_libcamera now has versioned shared library, which is now 0.0.110:42
rafael2k_I'll use this is package version10:42
siceloWizzup: so out of curiosity, what did you find wrt. RNDIS on your Gentoo kernel? was it already there? or optimized out? :)11:07
Wizzupsicelo: sorry, I didn't check it yet, I was sick for all of last week and had to catch up on some stuff18:02
sicelonp. glad you're recovered18:10
buZzomg!22:19
buZzthis looks like almost perfect for leste ; https://www.clockworkpi.com/uconsole22:19
buZzaww, no touchscreen22:20
buZznot very expensive though, not even for the 6core model22:21
Wizzupso maybe not perfect? :p22:21
buZzcould be not a very difficult mod to add a touchscreen to it :P22:21
buZzbut i agree, mousing in leste isnt that useful22:21
buZzlol, zoom in on keyboard, they swapped enter and backspace? O_o22:25
siceloalso the gaming keys are too high, i think23:01
uvosnot to mention they look way to small23:56
uvosnot really a fan of the design23:56
