| sunshavi | KotCzarny: NTFS seems to have unstability compared with fat32. It is giving me something like "bad sectors when mounting it". | 02:08 |
|---|---|---|
| duude | is anyone online? | 05:14 |
| brolin_empey | duude: No. ;-) | 05:15 |
| duude | it seems so | 05:17 |
| duude | by any chance, is there a way to mute the load sound n900 makes when booting? | 05:18 |
| Maxdamantus | sunshavi: maybe that's because NTFS can detect bad sectors and FAT can't. | 06:15 |
| Maxdamantus | (dunno what NTFS' bad sector behaviour is, but I would expect it is better at maintaining integrity than FAT) | 06:16 |
| sunshavi | Maxdamantus: brand new disk, with fat32 everything was most of the time stable. but with NTFS. I needed to mount it on win32 for fixing the issue about the bad sector. | 06:19 |
| Maxdamantus | sunshavi: what's the other NTFS implementation you're using? ntfs-3g, or the one in the Linux kernel? Probably shouldn't use the latter. | 06:54 |
| brolin_empey | duude: I have not tried it but maybe you can rename/move or delete the sound file(s) played while booting (software solution) or connect a 3.5-mm plug to something else (2.5-mm or dual RCA or maybe something else) adapter to the AV connector without anything connected to the other end(s) of the adapter (hardware solution)? | 07:00 |
| brolin_empey | I know I silenced the focus and fake shutter sound effects used by the camera application on Maemo 5 by renaming the sound files or maybe replacing the sound files with empty files or silent sound files, was too many years ago for me to remember the specific method. | 07:02 |
| brolin_empey | I still remember information such as my home address in 1992 and earlier, though, so it is not as if I cannot remember information from only 2010 at the earliest. My memory is usually very good. | 07:08 |
| Maxdamantus | duude: it's called "nokia hands". iirc there's a .avi file somewhere in Maemo which you can just delete. | 07:22 |
| Maxdamantus | I don't think I can find it on my system, probably because I deleted it ages ago. | 07:24 |
| duude | is it normal that it takes ages(like two hours) just to charge 10%? | 07:41 |
| brolin_empey | Maxdamantus: I guess duude can just run “# find / -iname '*.avi'” to find the relevant file? | 07:44 |
| Maxdamantus | brolin_empey: yes, I think so. | 07:45 |
| brolin_empey | Or “$ locate -i '*.avi'” if Maemo uses updatedb and locate; I do not remember if it does. Does it? | 07:45 |

| duude | how much does a healthy n900 take to get full | 07:49 |
| duude | in terms of battery charge | 07:51 |
| KotCzarny | duude: check: 1/ different charger, 2/ different cable, 3/ if some app isnt using cpu when idle | 07:58 |
| KotCzarny | my n900 charges from 0 to 100 in ~1.5-2.5h | 07:58 |
| duude | ok the battery is degraded | 07:59 |
| KotCzarny | if you have some usb power meter you can check if its charger/cable problem | 07:59 |
| duude | Could the TV cable be made DIY? | 08:02 |
| KotCzarny | tv cable is like 1-2 bucks | 08:07 |
| KotCzarny | check any electronics store nearby, should have one | 08:08 |
| duude | no, the n900 | 08:08 |
| duude | i mean the cable that got in the n900 phone plug and could connect it to the TV, i wasn't aware it was bundled with the phone and forgot to get it from the previous owner | 08:10 |
| * enyc meows! | 08:10 | |
| KotCzarny | i know | 08:11 |
| KotCzarny | its the very simple cable that isnt n900's specific | 08:11 |
| KotCzarny | in the worst you can swap colors on the cinch side | 08:11 |
| KotCzarny | you can use any minijack -- 3x cinch | 08:12 |
| sunshavi | Maxdamantus: udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdc1 | 08:13 |
| sunshavi | then i should change on using mount.ntfs. I am going to try it next time | 08:15 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I don't believe there is much special about the TV out cable. I found one from an old camcorder the phonos are all the wrong colours but it works. | 08:18 |
| sixwheeledbeast | they also shipped them with old compact internet tv boxes before they switched to HDMI. | 08:20 |
| enyc | =me meows! | 08:33 |
| sicelo | sixwheeledbeast: the N900 one you were lucky. the one from Next Thing Co. CHIP doesn't work on N900, although it works for nearly everything else i tried | 08:55 |
| KotCzarny | sicelo, huh? | 08:55 |
| KotCzarny | just swap yellow and red? | 08:56 |
| sicelo | iirc i tried that and didn't work ... otoh, it's been a while maybe i'm mixing things out | 08:57 |
| KotCzarny | unless they moved the shield on minijack.. but no one does that | 08:58 |
| sicelo | iirc n900 didn't even detect the cable as tv-out | 08:58 |
| KotCzarny | s/shield/ground/ | 08:58 |
| infobot | KotCzarny meant: unless they moved the ground on minijack.. but no one does that | 08:58 |
| KotCzarny | the cable from xunlong/orangepi is the same pinout as n900's | 08:59 |
| sicelo | i see | 09:01 |
| KotCzarny | adding bs=128k to dd commands help sometimes | 09:01 |
| KotCzarny | erm, wrong chan | 09:01 |
