norayris someone who dealt with keyboard here and free? i don't know, probably freemangordon, or uvos. i have the issue on github and video that illustrates the issue.12:50
norayrrafael2k: you must encounter this too, with your pp.12:50
norayrwithout hw kbd onscreen kbd is unusable with non hildonized apps.12:50
norayrenter does not work in any non-hildonized app. stopped working. it was working before.12:51
norayrrafael2k: this is on droid4, but same with pp: https://toobnix.org/w/dhb9VMzyGASkiYxmeoYB7G12:51
norayri don't understand how core devs can be so indifferent to such an important issue, when the keyboard is not working.12:52
norayri understand that they use d4 with hwkbd, but i guess they want maemo to be usable without hwkbd as well, right?12:52
sicelowhat does the video show? (didn't watch)13:26
norayrit shows that onscreen keyboard is not able to send 'enter' to gedit.13:46
norayrgedit is an example - any non-hildonized app doesn't get the enter. though it gets other keys.13:46
Wizzupnorayr: not sure why you say 'indifferent'...14:12
WizzupI think it's likely in fmg's court14:13
norayrthank you. i think this happened after fmg's toolkit hildonization work recently.14:14
norayrbut i am not sure.14:14
WizzupI don't have time this week, but bisect would help a lot14:21
rafael2knorayr, hey16:10
rafael2kI'm with the keyboard16:10
rafael2kI have a very annoying behavior, the volume key is showing me the app tab, instead of just changing the volume16:29
Wizzupdo you mean the power menu, or?16:33
rafael2kwhat is that screen that shows the apps side by side16:35
rafael2kvolume down triggers maemo screen switch16:36
rafael2kbut this does not make sense, if the volume key... is the volume key16:36
humpelstilzchen[volume up also16:36
rafael2kyeap16:40
rafael2kanyone remembers that file with the settings of these keys?16:40
rafael2ksomething.ini16:40
humpelstilzchen[you are not talking about mci.ini I assume? I don not see any volume config in it16:44
rafael2kwhich is its path?17:12
rafael2kno, not this one17:13

Wizzupweird, I wonder how that worked, does the pinephone keyboard mess with the key map of the buttons?17:31
siceloWizzup: no, it doesn't18:20
Wizzupsicelo: because it worked on the pp last week or so irc18:23
Wizzupiirc18:23
siceloit was set that way by leste choice, https://github.com/maemo-leste/leste-config/blob/master/leste-config-pinephone/usr/share/hildon-desktop/shortcuts.ini.leste18:23
Wizzupbut this is weird then, no:18:42

Wizzup17:20 < rafael2k> commenting thouse lines fixes18:43
sicelono, it makes sense, at least to me18:43
Wizzuphmm, ok, I see18:43
Wizzupsorry18:44
sicelobasically, rafael doesn't want/need volume buttons to act as leftbutton or raise vkb18:44
siceloah,cool :-)18:44
humpelstilzchen[rafael2k: thx for the tip18:53
maemish_I have started to think my questions do not actually belong this place so I will not bother with them you guys. You have enough to do. I will stay just as a student here learning. But I will offer my expertize for Leste team: if you make instructions for things concerning Leste, like if you would make a guide for getting swap on emmc or guides for overclocking etc. throw them to me before publishing. Linux user over 10 years19:10
maemish_and N900 user since 2018 yet I can make tou gasp how noob I can be without any knowledge. So I can test all instructions are they idiot proof and ask more details on them, evwn write them for a noob if I first get them working.19:10
sicelomaemish_: please feel free to ask questions here. you are not bothering19:21
siceloit's just that ... sometimes people do get busier than usual19:22
siceloor, someone might be around who doesn't know the answer to your question - e.g. i don't know much/anything about localization (because in my part of the world, we just know and accept computers to be 'English'). never thought to remap key layout on my pc or N90019:24
Wizzupyeah, in my case it's a matter of really busy basically since fosdem19:31
Wizzupbut should be good again soon19:31
peetahmaemish_: concerning the keyboard layout issue, there seems to be a  problem with how maemo handle it. For now you are required to run 'setxkbmap -model nokiarx51 -layout <your_layout>' in a terminal in order to have it fixed for the session. But it does not make it permanent and must be done after each reboot19:43
peetah*maemo-leste19:51
siceloWizzup: any idea how far rafael (or someone else) got with keymap for pinephone keyboard? https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1575109&postcount=2620:36
Wizzuprafael mailed me to import the files20:37
Wizzupyesterday20:37
Wizzupcreated it now20:38
uvosnorayr: that app IS hildonized with regards to him20:38
uvosseams like the new gtk3 backend has broken enter20:38
uvosat least some times20:38
uvospresumably enter still works if you raise the vkb via search on a qt application or maybe xterm or so20:39
uvos(ie something not gtk3)20:40
uvosor gtk220:40
Wizzupyes, I think he said that20:40
uvosok20:40
Wizzup(that the x11 one works)20:40
WizzupIIRC at least20:40
uvosin the video it dosent20:40
uvosbut thats not supriseing20:40
uvossince haveing a application with a him context open changes alot of stuff20:40
uvosand clearly the gtk3 backend breaks enter in its context20:40
uvosbisect really isent usefull here20:41
uvosit will just show that the first commit with gtk3 support breaks it20:41
uvosvery likely20:41
uvosyeah now that we have volume support20:42
uvoswe need to remove the raise vkb bindings in h-d on pp20:42
uvosthis was just a temporary thing while volume dident work anyhow20:42
uvosa new way to raise the vkb is needed now20:42
uvos@rafael2k20:43
Wizzupuvos: yes, you're right, regarding bisect20:43
uvosrafael2k: what broke here is that the volume applet is now installed, and it dose xgrabkey on the vol buttons20:44
uvosor wants to anyhow20:44
Wizzupyes, I fixed the applet to work on pp explicitly for him :)20:46
uvosi know20:46
uvosso now the shortcuts need to be removed20:46
uvoshttps://github.com/maemo-leste/leste-config/blob/master/leste-config-pinephone/usr/share/hildon-desktop/shortcuts.ini.leste20:47
uvosie just delete this file20:47
