sixwheeledbeast | hmm never had a headset not realise it's a headset any more odd | 19:35 |
xmn | Hey maemo fam, I could use some help. My n900 thinks that the keyboard is always open. I've not been able to track down why this is happening. But even on reboot it thinks it's open and activates bootmenu. Any insight would be great. thx | 22:50 |
KotCzarny | magnet fell off? | 22:52 |
xmn | thank for chiming in KotCzarny | 22:53 |
xmn | the battery on the back cover? | 22:53 |
xmn | I thought that only effect the camera and the sd card | 22:54 |
KotCzarny | i might be wrong, just wild guess | 22:54 |
xmn | I can certainly try a stronger magnet :D. But I did fix that previously with a new glue on magnet. | 22:55 |
KotCzarny | oh, so you had magnet trouble alreay? | 22:56 |
KotCzarny | *already | 22:56 |
xmn | appreciate your helping | 22:56 |
sixwheeledbeast | ~beasttweaks | 22:56 |
xmn | KotCzarny: Yeah the little mag on the back cover did fall off. So I fix it. no problem since. This was new | 22:56 |
sixwheeledbeast | where for art thou infobot? | 22:57 |
xmn | KotCzarny: Some one else has backup your thoughts. So for sure will have to look into this. | 22:59 |
sicelo | magnet on back cover is for SD card detection | 23:03 |
sicelo | i forgot how slide is detected, but i also seem to think it's magnet, but unsure where that one is located | 23:04 |
sixwheeledbeast | while true; do cat /sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/slide/state; done | 23:04 |
xmn | sixwheeledbeast: Thx for this info. will try it now | 23:15 |
xmn | I do have a 2nd n900 disassembled, so will look at that for any mangets | 23:16 |
sicelo | the magnet is in the screen housing, evidently, and the sensor is somewhere around top row of keyboard. i don't see how this magnet can get lost | 23:25 |
xmn | hmm, yeah strange. I had not drop it in awhile. And it just seem to happen. | 23:34 |
xmn | but very useful info sicelo | 23:34 |
xmn | sixwheeledbeast: ran your cmd = open | 23:44 |
xmn | but does the fact that I have to type on the open keyboard matter for this cmd? | 23:44 |
xmn | can't remember how to to press enter with out the on screen keyboard | 23:45 |
xmn | all I have is the buttons on the bottom of the terminal window | 23:45 |
xmn | maybe I can add one to it .. hmm | 23:45 |
sicelo | type on keyboard :) | 23:51 |
