| sunshavi | I am a maemo user again. Back on using my n900 with screen not working | 16:13 |
|---|---|---|
| sunshavi | found a way of making calls from the terminal | 16:14 |
| Wizzup | heh | 16:15 |
| sunshavi | Yes it is nice | 16:16 |
| sunshavi | I am enjoying it | 16:16 |
| sunshavi | back from clamshelf (motorola razor) | 16:16 |
| sunshavi | for answering a call Shift+Up | 16:20 |
| sunshavi | for hanging Shift+Down | 16:20 |
| sunshavi | Ctrl+Down focus on the terminal needed for making phone-calls. Ctrl+Up focus on another terminal that I use for checking if phone is connected to the network, and connecting it when necessary | 16:22 |
| sunshavi | even the phone reads me the last sms message. | 16:22 |
| sunshavi | now I need to code something for the phone telling me. When an entering-call is from a person that is part from my address-book. Perhaps using the led I am thinking | 16:26 |
| sicelo | Ans fix the screen. It's easier than usb port :-) | 16:40 |
| sicelo | Probably just flex cable. You could Hopefully find a really borked n900 to buy and salvage cable from | 16:41 |
| sunshavi | impossible to fix it. It is not possible to remove the bolt for opening the device | 16:45 |
| sunshavi | 16:45 | |
| sunshavi | sicelo: BTW. hi sicelo | 16:46 |
| sicelo | Hey :-) | 16:47 |
| bencoh | nice to see you back to n900 :) | 17:22 |
| bencoh | (sad to hear that you need to struggle with the UI though, but ...) | 17:23 |
| sunshavi | bencoh: Hi bencoh. Sure. It is an issue. But also it proves how useful this device is. Even without the screen. | 17:47 |
| sicelo | :-) | 17:48 |
| sunshavi | my other n900-with-modem-failed is still used as usb-ethernet. I am thinking on using it when trying freebsd. It is very difficult connecting freebsd with wifi-dongles | 17:48 |
| sunshavi | was n900 the first device with usb-ethernet. I remember it was not possible with n800 | 17:49 |
| sunshavi | n800 has an issue with the kernel for it properly working | 17:50 |
| joerg | sunshavi: drill out the "bolt" (screw?) | 21:34 |
| sunshavi | Mmm. I do not have the tool for doing it. But Right doing carefully the screw could be drilled out | 21:42 |
| sunshavi | I am not sure I want to take the risk | 21:42 |
| sunshavi | The screw was damaged, because I did not used the right screwdriver | 21:46 |
| sunshavi | when changing the screen. when the screen was broken. Also perhaps the second n900-with-modem-failed the damaged was caused because the unit has dropped a lot of times. n900 needs a good case (in case of dropping). | 21:48 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I would point you to ~fixribbon but no bot... | 21:54 |
| sixwheeledbeast | https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=78495 | 22:00 |
| sixwheeledbeast | scroll down | 22:00 |
| sunshavi | swb: Hi sixwheeledbeast. I have not noticed the bot is down. thanks for reminding it | 22:01 |
| sixwheeledbeast | it's not down it never came from freenode. | 22:01 |
| sunshavi | Oh. I see | 22:01 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I am of the opinion some of these screws are borked from the factory | 22:02 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I have taken a few apart now and some will NOT move even with the correct well fitting tips | 22:03 |
| sunshavi | this one. was removed once. The next time it was not possible | 22:04 |
| sunshavi | Oh my God. on that post modem was fixed. Could I fix mine-one? | 22:05 |
