uvosWizzup: parazyd: problem with charge-mode randomly not starting on mapphones should be fixed00:24
Wizzupuvos: any idea since when wifi feels worse for you?00:56
Wizzupuvos: the main thing I changed was how we scan01:07
bencohis it expected that most (every?) app trying to use opengl on droid4 somehow fails to load the omapdrm dri lib? http://pastebin.notk.org/pastebin.php?show=m3682078901:37
bencoh(should I install gl4es, or set some obscure envvar?)01:37
Wizzupuvos: we should make a ticket for organic maps if it doesn't exist01:53
* Wizzup zz01:53
Daanct12Good morning, Aikon users02:38
Daanct12Or droid users :)02:39
shenteySetting up connui-conndlgs-internet (2.79.3+2m7.1) ...06:20
shenteySetting up hildon-input-method:armhf (1:2.1.60-1+2m7.1) ...06:20

shenteywith beowulf-devel06:21
mighty17[m]you need to get your vol kets working > @uvos yep they are gpio keys but isn't having a icon in a corner just better anyways (like phosh has)06:38
Wizzupshentey: what about it?07:31
shenteyoh this wasnt the problem08:07
shenteymodprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:586 kmod_search_moddep() could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/5.11.0/modules.dep.bin'08:07
shenteymodprobe: FATAL: Module usb_f_mass_storage not found in directory /lib/modules/5.11.008:07
shenteydpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of hildon-meta-droid4: hildon-meta-droid4 depends on hildon-meta; however:08:08
shentey  Package hildon-meta is not configured yet.08:08
uvosWizzup: yeah the scanning behavior is exactly the problem. like i start my hotspot on my other device and then go into the connection selection dialog and previously it found the new network allmost immidiatly because a scann started when i opend the dialog, now it dosent show up until later08:48
uvosWizzup: if i missclick some other network and then cancle at the WPA key entry the dialog is empty once i reopen it08:48
uvosWizzup: it used to be that a scann started immidatly and the dialog started repopulating08:49
uvosnow it just sits empty08:49
uvosif a connection fails the connection is removed from the dialog (why dose this happen anyways it should not...)08:49
shenteyusb-storage will be nice08:49
uvosthis used to not be a problem because the device picked up the network again allmost immidiatly08:50
uvosbut now the network again is just gone for a long time08:50
uvosWizzup: tldr: its not scanning when it should08:50
uvosthe problem started occuring with the recent condialgo icd updates08:51
uvosi cant say when exactly sorry08:51
uvosi wasent using the deivce in ernest at that time08:52
shenteyi resolved wifi issues by setting up an openwrt router in the same room08:53
uvosshentey: d4?08:54
shenteyyes08:54
shenteyironically it recently works with both routers08:54
uvosshentey: try maserati-callibrate as root08:54
uvosinittaly it wasent callibrated08:54
shenteyCalibration already perfomed08:54
uvosok08:55
uvosafter that happend your range increased08:55
shenteythanks to whomever made that08:55
uvosme08:55
uvosor well ti08:55
uvosi integrated it to leste08:55
shenteythank you uvos08:55
uvosyou can also increase range by setting your wifi region like this `iw reg set $(your contry code)`08:56
uvosthen it uses more tx power08:56
uvos(maybe depends on where you are)08:56
uvosif you set it to us you get another 2x range about08:56
shenteyi have no chance of interfering with other users08:56
shenteyiw is in package "iw" not "wireless-tools"08:57
shenteythat's new to me08:57
uvosjust debian things08:58
shenteyfor the logs "iw reg get" shows the current domain information09:00
Wizzupuvos: so it doesn't actually lead the problems connecting to a network, but it leads to problems when trying to do that manually09:49
WizzupI think it might have to do with when the scanning results are returned by wpa_supplicant09:50
uvosWizzup: i also think that its failing to connect more09:55
uvosWizzup: but that might just be becaue i notice it more because of the added frustraion of not being able to try again09:55
Wizzupuvos: I'll try to take a look, I know what might cause that10:11
WizzupI think10:11
uvosWizzup: ok the click on other WPA2 network and cancle at pw entry is the easiest to repo10:12
shenteyis hildon-meta broken for any of you? (with -devel)10:18
shenteyah reinstall seems to have fixed.  sorry.10:18
shenteyuvos: on droid4, is there a way to use iwconfig?  or wavmon?  not finding an interface.10:23
uvosiwconfig is obsolete dont use it10:24
shenteyhow should i continuously log/monitor connection strength from command line?10:25
uvosiw dev wlan0 link10:28
uvosor there is a dbus signal from icd2 too10:28
shenteyty10:29
bencohfor those looking for some kind of youtube interface (to replace the bloated web version), pipe-viewer is awesome / and it works pretty well on droid4+maemo :)11:26
bencohit's a perl program and builds easily ... I dunno how to package it (yet?) but I think it'd be worth it11:27
shenteympv plays youtube urls directly - does pipe viewer provide something beyond that?11:34
shenteyah browsing / searching / stats - like mpsyt but not python11:35
bencohyeah11:40
bencohmpsyt is nice as well, but it requires a google api key, btw (the default one is overused)11:40
shenteythanks for the tip11:40
bencohoh and, pipe-viewer also has a gtk3 frontend (apart from the commandline one)11:40
uvosgtk3 is generally the worst toolkit on maemo atm11:41
uvosno integration and the stupid client side decorations11:41
bencohtbh the slow / highcpu scrolling issue bothers me more than the decorations11:42
bencohbut you're kinda right I guess11:43
uvosthats the d4s fault11:43
bencohyeah11:43
uvosnot the toolkit11:43
uvosthe pvr driver/xorg copys every frame with the cpu to main ram and then to vram and back11:43
uvosso everything is slow as hell11:43
shenteythanks for the tip11:44
bencoheven uxterm scrolling during some apt install makes Xorg use ~50% cpu11:44
bencohwhich is awfuly sad11:44
uvoseven es2gears uses 100% cpu and gets like 20fps11:44
shenteyoops can this be bypassed with mplayer, vlc, sdl11:44
bencohshentey: mpv in fullscreen has no issue11:44
shenteywhich backend?11:44
bencohthey probably bypass compositing in fullscreen11:44
bencohvo=x1111:44
uvosbypassing composing helps some11:45
bencohoh right, I'll have to paste my mpv config as well, I think it might be useful for others11:45
uvosbut its not the root of the problem11:45
shenteymaybe to wiki also11:45
bencohuvos: right, but I'm still considering disabling compositing for uxterm windows as a workaround11:45
bencoh(not sure it would work with windowed stuff though)11:45
uvosbencoh: ctrl-shift-n11:45
uvosdisables composing on any window11:45
bencohseriously? <311:46
uvosyes11:46
shenteyctrl-shift-n dropped movie playback xorg from 67% cpu to 25% cpu with 960x540, 24fps movie11:48
uvosyes for cpu drawn stuff (like video atm) this makes the path work correctly11:48
uvosgles stuff is broken either way11:48
bencoh:(11:49
shenteythe fullscreen sdl fix (-vo sdl) seems to work also11:49
bencohcan you compare sdl vs x11?11:49
shenteynumbers vary in time.  with this film one sample is  x11: mplayer 55%, xorg 22%  sdl: mplayer 65%, xorg 23%11:54
shenteythanks uvos ctrl-shift-n is a great improvement11:55
shenteympv 70%, xorg 38%11:59
bencohshentey: http://pastebin.notk.org/pastebin.php?show=f66ce4b1b this might be of some interest to you12:00
bencohit's not the latest version, but it's close enough12:01
shenteythanks12:02
shenteythat seems to be .mplayer/config ?12:03
bencohboth12:04
shenteydo you suspend/kill pulseaudio for media playback?12:04
bencohI don't12:04
bencohOh, right, I don't use ao=alsa on maemo12:04
bencohthat was plain devuan12:04
bencohyou should remove the alsa-related lines12:05
shenteymplayer won't play with that12:08
shenteybut thanks, interesting params to learn about12:08
shenteydoes threads=8 make sense on omap4 bencoh ?12:09
shenteythis is the line that breaks my mplayer:  framedrop=decoder+vo12:13
bencohshentey: sorry if this wasn't clear, but there are two config files there12:41
bencohthe first part is for mplayer, the second for mpv12:42
bencohas for threads=8, I thought it was probably too high as well when I looked back at it; but it should still be higher than just 2 (the number of cores) anyway12:42
shenteyok thanks :)12:43
mighty17[m]can we pls remove `PVR_K:(Error): PVRMMapRemoveRegisteredArea: psOffsetStruct 0x8e41bc47 for memory area 0x0x02b98c45 is still mapped; psOffsetStruct->ui32Mapped 1 [1754, rivers/gpu/drm/pvrsgx/1.9.2253347/services4/srvkm/env/linux/mmap.c]` its making the dmesg a mess13:07
mighty17[m]and hard for me to debug other features13:07
shenteytapping the brightness control applet gives random brightness levels14:04
shenteythe ui could have two large buttons for brighter or darker, instead of 5 levels14:04
Wizzupshentey: what if you tap twice?14:12
bencohto me it felt like I had to slide it to get the proper level14:13
uvosWizzup: its just slightly broken in leste mce, when you tap in it takes the hightest brighness of the profile14:13
shenteysometimes it stays the same, sometimes it changes to either very dark or very light14:13
uvosand then once als gets the next value it changes to the right value in the profile14:13
uvosits a simple fix i have in the cmake tree14:13
Wizzupuvos: is that in mce or in the gtk scrollbar ui?14:13
uvosmce14:13
Wizzupoh14:14
Wizzupthat's silly14:14
uvoshmm?14:14
WizzupI thought it was a gtk problem14:14
uvosno14:14
uvoswas my fault14:15
bencohoh, hm ...14:16
uvosi mean there is a bug in the gtk scollbar too14:19
uvosscrubbing and taping the bar is not the same14:19
uvosso that causes wierdness to14:20
uvosbut thats nonwithstanding of the mce bug14:20
Wizzupcheck14:21
rafael2kis the crypto stuff all included in the kernel? I get some missing algorithms when trying to mount the PostMarketOS in the eMMC of my pinephone.14:22
bencohwith cryptsetup? probably14:23
Wizzupstuff for LUKS you mean?14:23
Wizzupmodprobe configs14:23
Wizzupzgrep CONFIG_FOO /proc/config.gz14:23
rafael2kyes, with cryptsetup14:23
bencohwell, it comes from the kernel, at least. I dunno if it's properly enabled14:23
rafael2kLUKS, yes14:23
parazydYeah we don't include all crypto algorithms afaik14:23
rafael2kjust a sec, just installed the latest update, lemme check again14:24
uvosparazyd: while your at it CONFIG_TUN=m pls14:24
parazydAlso this'd be nice to do sometime: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/31914:24
uvosparazyd: not that i use leste kernel anyhow but if i did id need tun :P14:25
parazyduvos: Sure thing14:25
Wizzupas far as I am concerned we can enable a lot more modules14:25
Wizzupthey just use up some sd card space14:25
parazydYeah14:25
parazydDebian enables almost all of it on x8614:25
parazydPerhaps we could too14:25
parazydBut I'd like to do the fragments mentioned above14:25
uvossure sounds good14:26
uvostun can wait for that14:26
parazydSo we'd have crypto, netfilter, anbox, etc. All kinds of different configs14:26
rafael2k(of course I can compile my kernel too, but having all crypto stuff already there would not hurt, at least in devices with plenty of space, as the PP)14:26
uvoseven on n900 its no big deal14:27
Wizzupnot sure if we want *all*, but useful stuff at least14:27
Wizzup(upgrades can get big)14:27
Wizzupunrelated as compiling with thumb2?14:27
Wizzups/as/are we/14:28
rafael2khum, after apt-get update / upgrade and reboot, no wifi14:28
rafael2k:(14:28
rafael2kI realized some wifi stuff was upgraded...14:28
Wizzupthis is becoming uncannily common14:29
Wizzupdid you upgrade everything?14:29
rafael2kok, manually selecting my wifi network it worked14:29
uvosyeah it dosent scann14:29
rafael2kbut did not connect automatically14:29
Wizzupit does for me, maybe it's just the first that fails and you noticed14:30
rafael2k(before was working fine thou)14:30
uvosfor some reason scanning is broken in several instances14:30
uvosit will scann eventually if you wait14:30
Wizzupcan you file a bug?14:30
rafael2kmay be it was a one off error14:30
uvosrafael2k: no there are several ways to bring it back14:30
uvos(eg select a network that you have no WPA2 key for and then cancle the connect at the pw entry)14:31
rafael2k# Userspace crypto wrapper cannot use aes-xts-plain64 (-95).14:31
rafael2kthis is the error when cryptosettuping my PMOS partition ^14:31
bencohfunny, I had to add that one at $job not so long ago14:31
bencoh(aiui ~recent versions of cryptsetup added support for it, or started using it by default)14:32
rafael2kalso some strange messages when running cryptsetup with --debug: # Not enough physical memory detected, PBKDF max memory decreased from 1048576kB to 986474kB.14:33
rafael2kbut I think this is just verbosity14:33
Wizzupsee what dmesg says14:33
rafael2kWizzup: will do bug reports from next week on14:33
bencohyou'll want CRYPTO_XTS14:33
Wizzupuvos: fwiw network connecting failing always lead to it disappearing for a bit, that's not new with the code changes14:34
rafael2knothing on dmesg14:34
uvosWizzup: yes but the time for it to come back is mutch longer now14:34
bencohWizzup: yeah, I'm not on -devel afaict, and I see network scanning "issues" from time to time14:34
rafael2kconcerning network stuff - may be I just has no patience to wait enough for auto connection...14:34
Wizzupuvos: ok, so maybe scans take longer is what you mean?14:34
uvosWizzup: it just dosent scann in cases it used to14:35
rafael2kI will reboot again, and see14:35
uvosWizzup: all connections dissapearing when you cancle pw entry is not new either14:35
WizzupI think we get all the scan results once the scan is done, as opposed to in real time14:35
Wizzupbut that's just a guess14:35
uvosWizzup: but it used to trigger a scan once you open the dialog14:35
uvosWizzup: now you just get a empty dialg for minutes14:35
bencohI think that's how wpa_supplicant (or at least wpa_cli) works, yeah14:35
Wizzupminutes?14:35
uvos(untill the next auto rescann)14:35
Wizzupthat's not good for sure14:35
uvosyeah at least 60 seconds14:35
WizzupI wonder if that was related to connui changes rather than icd214:36
rafael2kbut certainly something changed concerning the network - in the past (before this apt upgrade I did) was better14:37
rafael2kbencoh: tks, that is it - CRYPTO_XTS14:38
rafael2k2 min - no auto connection to my home wifi yet14:40
rafael2k4min14:42
rafael2kI think something broken in latest connui / icd or mce, dunno, but it is not automatically connecting to wifi anymore14:43
buZzrafael2k: by chance, did you recently upgrade this leste install?14:44
buZzand are you on -devel?14:44
rafael2kbuZz: how to check this?14:44
rafael2kI just apt-get update / upgrade it today14:45
buZzcat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep devel14:45
buZziirc14:45
rafael2kbtw, in the first tap to the networks, it is all greyed out14:45
rafael2kthen in the second tap, my network appears14:45
buZzi recently upgraded mine, and all opening of icd's wifi list showed me zero networks14:45
rafael2kdeb https://maedevu.maemo.org/leste beowulf-devel main contrib non-free lima pinephone14:46
buZzwpasupplicant still worked fine on its own though14:46
buZzended up just reinstalling14:46
Wizzuprafael2k: the auto connect is every 5 minutes, is it not?14:46
rafael2kWizzup: I waited more than 5min14:47
WizzupbuZz: I do not think he is seeing the problem you had14:47
buZzright, ok14:47
buZzjust curious14:47
uvosWizzup: auto connect dosent work for me at all either anymore14:47
buZzif rafael2k sees networks at all, it doesnt sound similar :P14:47
uvosWizzup: it dose autoscann in the background14:47
Wizzupweird, I know auto connected worked the other day for me14:47
uvosWizzup: but it wont try to connect14:47
uvosjust tried it14:48
rafael2kbuZz: my install is from ascii times... already old14:48
uvosfor last 10 minutes14:48
buZzheh14:48
Wizzupuvos: what I mean is that it did, for me14:48
uvosok14:48
uvosdosent seem to work here atm14:48
Wizzupnot saying the bug is not there, but just added that it is not universailly broken on -devel14:48
uvosyeah i think i have seen it work to with the latest devel icd14:49
uvosbut its not working reliably anymore14:49
WizzupI guess it will require some debugging to see if scans fail to start, for some reason, or something else is up14:49
uvosthe behavior with what happens when it fails the first time might have changed14:49
uvosjust guessing14:49
uvosor the scannin behavior yeah14:49
uvosfixing the scanning stuff first is easyiest probubly becuase you can trigger it immidatly14:50
rafael2khttps://github.com/maemo-leste/icd2/commit/b40bef1311d821465f595419e77d233ef768064414:54
rafael2k^^14:54
rafael2kI can only see this in icd2...14:54
Wizzupicd2 has plugins14:55
rafael2khummm, right14:55
bencohis the autoconnect requested by icd2, or is it based on wpasupplicant's internal autoconnect mechanism?14:55
Wizzupfmg knows best14:56
Wizzupin any case, it's likely related to the scan code, maybe I just missed something14:56
WizzupI changed it recently to scan using the socket control interface rather than dbus, due to missing func in dbus14:57
Wizzup(all of thi sfor hidden APs ;-))14:57
rafael2khaven hidden APs is good, but no autoconnect is bad15:01
rafael2k:P15:01
uvosidk15:02
uvoshaving hidden aps encurages people to use the feature... but they really should not15:02
bencoh:]15:03
rafael2kthings got strange, after some time, when i tap in the connection manager - the networks are all grayed out, then when I tap again just after - it is all there normally15:05
Wizzuprafael2k: yes, also a known bug that was fixed in some ways, but not fully15:18
WizzupI don't have the problem since I also have the modem code running15:18
Wizzupwhich returns right away15:19
uvosicd2 sound like fun17:02
uvosmighty17[m]: regarding that trace, you can go back to 5.10 this bug is not there17:02
uvosmighty17[m]: we dont want to spend time fixing it because its a dead end anyhow17:02
uvosmighty17[m]: i personally just commented the error print out in the driver17:03
uvosmighty17[m]: if you like you could  bisect between 5.11 and 5.10 while carrying pvr to find why this happens17:03
mighty17[m]Lol, so i'll comment it out as well then17:03
uvosmighty17[m]: its a real error though17:03
uvosmighty17[m]: with real effects17:03
mighty17[m]what effects?17:04
uvosmighty17[m]: if you can spare the time it would be of great help if you could bisect it17:04
uvospvr is unstable17:04
mighty17[m]i mean we could check the commits between 5.10 and 5.1117:04
uvosright checkout git bisect17:04
uvosregaring a button to open the kbd, sure you are welcome to add a patch that optinally tiggers the keyboard on some button in the title bar or better via some gesture17:06
uvosrn it only works with hw keys17:07
uvosi implemented like that because the only device i have that needs this has plenty of extra hw keys (motorola bionic)17:08
sicelowifi autoconnect works fine on my d4. It's manual connect that's almost unusable17:08
sicelo*for me17:08
mighty17[m]rn it only works with hw keys > ah okay makes sense considering the devices u have18:42
jk000passing by just to say hi! :)23:05
Wizzuphi hi23:06
jk000hope things are going smooth for Leste, can't wait for the net blog/nes post!23:07
jk000next ... news23:07
Wizzupyeah, we should do that soon23:08
uvosnes post = leste on nes confimed?23:09
jk000hehe23:09
Wizzupuvos: hl3 running on leste on nes23:10
uvospff you should aim higher23:10
uvos:P23:11
Wizzuphehe23:11
uvosbut jeah we should have more news posts23:11
WizzupI think our goals are high enough aims tbh ;)23:11
uvosi say "should" in the loosesed sense here23:11
Wizzupyeah, parazyd and I have a list of things that changed to be in the news post23:11
uvosthey are a large drain on your time i imagine23:11
Wizzupit's not too bad tbh23:11
uvosok23:11
* Wizzup bbiab :-)23:11
jk000hehe which software do you use in leste to check e-mails? I tried sylpheed and it is ok but I hope for something better23:15
uvostrojita23:18
uvosi ported this a bit23:18
uvosto be touch frendly23:18
uvosthere are some rough edges still23:19
uvosbut it works23:19
jk000ok, I'll try it out. I wish I was skillfull enough to use a TUI for e-mails23:26
uvostrojita is gui23:30
jk000jup, mutt is tui (:23:34
