stanoi love having sd card access on the capslock light :)00:23
sicelodoesn't impact power consumption?00:30
uvosno00:32
uvosnot mesurably00:32
perehm, my n900 test unit has lost its wifi connectivity again. :(08:10
stano_for deskwork i stick to usb networking08:24
pereit was working before my last upgrade a while back.08:53
stano_there are many variables with wifi09:40
stano_how is the brightness applet working for you pere?09:40
stano_can you control the brightness?09:40
peredid not try...09:44
stano_one thing i am great at triggering is this sgx driver error09:58
stano_PVR:(Warning): PVRSRVOpenDCDevice: Warning - 138 returned [80, /bridged_pvr_dc_glue.c]09:58

stano_maemo-leste simple brightness applet demonstration video (40 sec, 659kB) http://0x0.st/-4ki.mkv10:28
uvosyes all sliders in gk2 are somewhat broken atm10:30
uvosyou have to touch it multiple times to get it to register the correct value10:30
uvosor scrub it from left to right10:31
stano_i didn't realize it was really a slider10:45
stano_thought there were 5 fields to tap10:45
uvosits a slider with 5 possible values10:45
stano_but i can tap the same spot and get from full dark to full bright10:45
stano_or rather almost full dark, i didn't measure the actual range10:45
uvosyes because the slider gets 2 inputs somehow10:45
uvosone where you tap10:45
uvosand one all the way to the left10:46
uvoswhich one arrives last ist random10:46
uvosso sometimes it registers a tap where you press10:46
uvosand sometimes it registers full brightness10:46
uvos*all the way to the right is what i ment10:46
stano_ok thanks for confirming this not just a 'me' problem10:47
stano_picodrive now. nothing but picodrive til it's done.  no distractions.10:48
Danct12parazyd, the fxtec uses a/b partition layout11:56
Danct12so you can have android on slot b, and leste on slot a11:56
parazydDanct12: ok, thanks12:08
Wizzupmorn13:01
Wizzuppere: did the upgrade succeed fully?13:01
Wizzuppere: and did you reboot after?13:01
pereWizzup: yes, and yes.13:02
Wizzuppere: hm, so apt doesn't complain about anything unfinished?13:03
Wizzuppere: I am not aware of any problems now on the n900, I'm pretty sure I fixed them all13:03
Wizzuppere: also new kernel?13:03
perethe last upgrade was some n900 specific stuff, do not remember the details.  can look it up if you want the details?13:05
Wizzuppere: well, can you try to use usb net and just upgrade and see if there is anything to upgrade?13:06
peresadly I do not have any usb net device that can fit. lack the required cable.13:07
Wizzupno microusb?13:07
Wizzuppere: I mean https://leste.maemo.org/Status/USB_Peripheral#Share_PC_network_with_Leste_device13:08
peremy only usb net device use a larger usb connector.13:08
Wizzuppere: you misunderstand me :)13:09
Wizzuppere: you know how you can charge your n900 on your pc with a normal microusb cable?13:09
Wizzuppere: if you connect it to your pc like that, you will see a 'usb0' interface or similar on your debian pc13:10
Wizzupthe n900 will export a usb ethernet device13:10
Wizzuppere: with the wiki page instructions you can share your pc network with the n90013:12
Wizzuppere: does that make sense?13:12
Wizzupyou don't need any usb-to-ethernet adapter13:12
uvosmaybe some package is missing in non-devel?13:12
Wizzupuvos: I tested it on non-devel, pretty sure13:12
uvosmy n900 works fine13:12
uvosbut its on devel13:12
uvosWizzup: ok13:12
Wizzupwe can compare packages I guess13:13
Wizzupparazyd: could you take a quick glance at the diff?13:13
parazydWhat diff?13:13
uvosdevel non devel13:13
uvospackage version diff13:13
parazydhttp://sprunge.us/wr9Z5u13:14
uvoslibicd-network-wpasupplicant13:15
uvosyeah so that might be it13:15
parazyd>foo: package is higher in beowulf13:15
parazyd<foo: package is higher in beowulf-devel13:15
uvosoh13:15
uvosok13:15
uvosconnui-common connui-conndlgs then?13:15
parazydYeah those are lower version13:16
WizzupI guess we should look at merging these again in a bit13:18
Wizzupparazyd: also what could be good to add (later) is to see which packages are in -devel but not at all in non-devel13:18
uvossalutem13:18
Wizzupuvos: yes, that for example13:19
uvosnot that it is important13:19
Wizzupuvos: but I mean to the tool13:19
pereWizzup: sorry, got busy in a phone.  I see from dpkg.log the two upgraded packages were leste-config-common and dbus.13:25
parazydWizzup: I think this is it: http://sprunge.us/4FVrTz13:25
uvosnone of those sound ripe for moving to non-devel13:26
uvosexcept salutem and hildon-theme-devel13:26
uvoswhich are both sufficantly unimportant to not matter if they break anyhow13:27
uvoshow dose the image builder work with sunxi not in non-devel?13:27
uvosit dosent13:28
parazydThere are no sunxi images on CI yet13:29
parazydexcept pine{phone,tab}, but they have their own kernel13:29
pereWizzup: <URL: https://leste.maemo.org/Status/USB_Peripheral#Share_PC_network_with_Leste_device > do not state if I should choose pc suite or mass storage on the n900 popup?13:30
Wizzuppere: just ignore the popup13:31
Wizzuppere: sorry, it should say that, good point13:31
Wizzupfreemangordon: are you around this weekend?13:31
pereWizzup: also, no usb0 device show up on my linux machine, no matter what I choose.13:33
uvosyou have to choose nothing13:33
Wizzuppere: it could have a different name if it is systemd13:34
Wizzup'dmesg' will probably show you13:34
uvosthe modern deterministic names is dbus related not systemd but yeah13:34
peredmesg is my friend: enp0s26u1u2: renamed from usb013:35
Wizzupright13:35
uvoser i mean udev ofc13:35
Wizzupuvos: yeah it just came after it 'merged' with systemd so I confuse that13:35
pereWizzup: ran into a problem with the n900 drawing too much power from my laptops usb connector, causing the laptop to disable the usb port and thus loosing network.  changed to a 'ss' port solved it.13:46
pere109 packages to upgrade... will take a while.13:48
pereWizzup: you talked earlier about sending me a device.  nothing arrived so far, hope nothing got lost in the mail.13:48
perebtw, what is with the l10n-nono name?  one of the 'no's should most likely be 'nb' or 'nn', not 'no'.13:54
pereWizzup: wifi is back after the upgrade.14:00
Wizzuppere: check14:03
Wizzuppere: I don't remember if I sent anything yet14:03
Wizzuppere: what device would that be?14:03
Wizzuppere: also, regarding the translations, all our translations are now on weblate and we generate them from weblate, so we take corrections and/or renames14:03
peresomething 4 or 5, something more modern than n900.14:04
uvosWizzup: you where going to give him a d4 i remember dimly14:04
Wizzupdroid 4 then, I can send it later this year :)14:04
uvosWizzup: im sure you forgot14:04
Wizzupuvos: that's usually a safe bet with me :)14:04
Wizzup:D14:04
Wizzuppere: so if you can take a look at some of the translations and tell us what it needs to be, we can fix it14:04
pereWizzup: url?  written 'norwegian' do not really exist, ie language code 'no'.  It is either 'norwegian bokmÃ¥l' (nb) or 'norwegian nynorsk' (nn), which we have been trying to implement for 30 years or so...14:05
perethe majority is nb, so if  you got 'no', you most likely should change it to 'nb'.  All texts I have seen has been 'nb' so far.14:05
uvoshow about making the norwegian languague package called fi  and the finnish pacakge nn14:05
uvosjust to annoy everyone14:06
uvos:P14:06
perebetter to use gr, as 'greek to me' is the norwegian phrase for 'I do not understand the language'. :)14:06
uvos:D14:07
Wizzuphttps://hosted.weblate.org/projects/maemo-leste/#languages14:07
pereI would be able to honestly state that finnish is greek to me. :)14:07
Wizzupit is bokmal on weblate it looks lke14:07
Wizzupat least per title14:08
Wizzupso maybe we just need to change some packages names14:08
peregood.  I talked to the weblate author several years ago about it, hope he disabled the 'no' code.14:08
Wizzupyeah, but I think we still generate it with the wrong package name probably (cc parazyd )14:09
parazydHey14:10
parazydIf you rename it on weblate, we can easily regenerate debian/control14:10
perenb on weblate seem to be complete already.14:10
parazydSo it's nb_NO ?14:11
pereparazyd: it is already nb_NO on weblate.  the package was named nono, though.14:11
parazydI see14:11
lelparazyd opened an issue: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/566 (translations: Rename no_NO to nb_NO)14:12

lelparazyd labeled an issue: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/566 (translations: Rename no_NO to nb_NO)14:12
Wizzup(and locale.gen)14:13
parazydYou wanted to do that through apt or something IIRC14:13
Wizzupmhm14:15
* pere checked the failing controls on weblate for nb_NO, and corrected a few entries.14:16

Wizzup:)14:53
uvosWizzup: could you comment on https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/53915:02
uvosi dont think this problem exists anymore but im unsure what bug its describing exactly15:02
uvosso cant repo15:02
Wizzupbasically an application can request the network/scan dialog to pop up15:04
Wizzupif you then select a network from it, it would always fail15:04
Wizzupbut indeed I think this is fixed with the newer conndlgs15:04
uvoscould you repo?15:05
Wizzuprepro you mean?15:05
uvosyeah15:05
WizzupI'm pretty sure I used it to test if fmg's fix worked, so I think we can close it15:05
uvosok15:05
lelIMbackK closed an issue: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/539 (Certain ways of invoking the connection dialog result in connection failure)15:05
Wizzupty15:06
Wizzup(i'm adding all of these to the news post too)15:06
Wizzupuvos: should we close #35 if we don't have a fix?15:34
Wizzupor?15:34
uvoswell it sais "look at" libinput on n900 would gain us no benefit, whilest requireing reimplementation of a calibration ui15:35
uvoswhile on other devices there is benefit (eg for the console vkb on bionic) so we switched those devices over15:35
uvosas far as i am concerned there is nothing to fix here15:36
uvosn900 also dosent support mutitouch15:36
uvosso the libinput gestures dont gain us anything either15:36
uvosin contrast to the other devices15:37
Wizzupok15:37
Wizzupfine15:37
freemangordonWizzup: around... yes, around :)19:02
Wizzupfreemangordon: ok, when you have a moment, maybe we can look at the hildon-desktop xrandr PR and mce cmake PR20:08
uvosthe pr concerns xinput not randr20:13
Wizzupuvos: yeah ok but it adds better randr handling no?20:14
uvosno20:14
uvosit adds xinput handling20:14
Wizzupok, let me re-look20:14
uvosfull stop20:14
Wizzupthis was from memory20:14
Wizzupok20:14

Wizzupfreemangordon: ok21:12
Wizzuphttps://jonnylamb.com/2010/01/14/telepathy-exras/ looks like the irc, hazy and some others are foss22:01
Wizzupthe UIs that is22:01

siceloyou mean the plugins? those aren't tied to the UI per se, iiuc22:06
uvoswhat tool can i use to introspect a dbus interface?22:07
uvosother than just reading the xml files22:08
sicelodbus-send22:08
uvosis there something i can pass --introspect whatever.interface22:08
uvosand see all the methods22:08
WizzupPackage: liblongcat122:08

Wizzuplol22:08
Wizzupsicelo: rtcom plugins, so uis for configuring tp22:09
Wizzupuvos: there is a gui22:09
siceloor utools like qtdbus22:09
sicelothere used to be d-feet for gtk/gnome ... no idea if that still works22:09
Wizzuphttps://askubuntu.com/questions/11453/tool-for-viewing-available-dbus-messages-i-can-send-to-an-application22:09
siceloanyway, not all dbus interfaces (esp. the nokia ones) are introspectable22:09
uvosyeah i know22:10
uvosim interested in ofono mostly22:10
WizzupI use mdbus2 as cli tool22:10
Wizzupit allows you to browse it from cli22:11
uvosqt currently dosent work over remote x22:11
uvosfor bug reasons22:11
uvos(pvr related)22:11
Wizzupuvos: just use mdbus2 I think22:11
uvosotherwise the qt tool would have been nice22:11
sicelookay. although ofono's interfaces are well documented ... that's not sufficient to discover all methods?22:11
uvossicelo: sure but who wants to read documentation :P22:12
uvos(im just looking for options ;)22:12
uvos_22:12
uvos)22:12
Wizzupuvos: yeah so mdbus2 can do all of this for you22:12

Wizzupand then after that comes the iface path22:16
Wizzupor w/e it is called22:16
uvos\me after 30min of dicking around with dbus - f*** it im replaceing the sphone dbus ofono code with libgofono22:41
* uvos after 30min of dicking around with dbus - f*** it im replaceing the sphone dbus ofono code with libgofono22:41
