siceloWizzup: https://github.com/maemo-leste/maemo-leste.github.io/pull/1808:21
Wizzupsicelo: will merge, but won't push out yet11:33
Wizzupsince it activates rss feeds from people11:34
sicelosure :-)11:34
buZzhehe , droid4 bricked itself17:10
buZzas-in , that one superverbose log filled SD card17:10
buZzlets see if emergencyshell is enough to fix it :)17:11
buZzdangit, didnt config root pwd i think17:13
buZzbut its not root:toor :/17:13
Wizzupshould be I think17:16
buZzyeah guess i changed it to something i cant remember dangit :P17:17
buZzcardreader time i guess17:17
tmlindbuZz: let me know if you see "failed to enable" errors in the beginning of your error log..17:37
tmlindor something else interesting, the theory right now is spi access fails and pmic access fails17:37
Wizzuptmlind: oh right let me dig my logs now :)17:38
Wizzupheh been almost two weeks since I was supposed to check:17:39
Wizzup# uptime 17:37:47 up 13 days, 17:34,  1 user,  load average: 0,87, 0,23, 0,0817:39
Wizzuptmlind: I don't seem to see these lines, I only have the panel disable/enable17:40
WizzupI do sometimes see:17:42
Wizzup[1186414.293518] omap-mcbsp 40124000.mcbsp: CLKS: could not clk_get() prcm_fck17:42
Wizzupoh hey:17:42
Wizzup[1074080.898284] abe-clkctrl:0030:0: failed to disable17:42
Wizzupyup so I saw those too before:17:43
WizzupMay 28 09:30:16 localhost kernel: [1364651.545074] abe-clkctrl:0030:0: failed to disable17:43
WizzupMay 30 09:30:23 localhost kernel: [157271.035980] abe-clkctrl:0030:0: failed to disable17:43
WizzupMay 30 16:53:25 localhost kernel: [183853.249938] abe-clkctrl:0030:0: failed to disable17:43
uvoswith the old kernel i gues17:44
Wizzupuvos: right17:48
Wizzupuvos: what do you think about n900 dts change for f7/f8 ?17:48
Wizzupto raise/lower volume17:49
uvosWizzup:  i allready mentioned ill implement it next kernel release17:49
uvosits allready in my tree17:49
WizzupI missed that somehow, sry!17:49
uvosno problem :)17:49
Wizzupah I see it now17:49
uvosdo note that this has some down sides17:50
uvoslike it will for instance make non-volume use of the buttons apply to external usb keyboards and bluetooth devices differently17:50
uvos(excepting bluetooth speakers headphones those will continue to work fine (volume only))17:51
Wizzupare you talking about if/when we would change the hildon key?17:51
uvosyes17:51
Wizzupright17:52
uvosbut right now too for xterm17:52
uvossince it reacts to xf86vol*17:52
Wizzupxterm already handles both I think17:52
uvosyes17:52
uvosthen again f7 f8 being volume on an external keyboard is really random allready17:52
uvosso idk if this is worse17:52
uvosi really dislike how fremantle handles/ uses the volume buttons17:53
uvosbut thats a different storry17:53
tmlindWizzup: i think those abe-clkctrl errors are harmless, misconfigured source clock17:57
tmlindor device busy while trying to idle if it's a autoidle configured device17:58
Wizzupok, then I am not sure if I can find the error you're talking about17:59
tmlindok so nothing interesting in your logs sounds like17:59
tmlindthose lcd messages are annoying17:59
Wizzupright17:59
uvosmore annoying is the stuttering18:00
uvos:P18:00
uvosthe kernel messages are easy to ignore18:00
tmlindwhich stuttering?18:00
WizzupI was thinking of restarting for new kernel but maybe since I'm at 13 days I should wait18:00
uvosd4's lcd stutters, looses frames18:00
tmlindyeah and the ants18:00
uvoscompeare a bionic side by side18:00
uvosits like butter compeared to d418:00
tmlindweird18:00
uvostmlind: yeah but the pannel dropping frames happens on android too18:01
uvosits a hw bug18:01
Wizzupimo the ants are more strange and sometimes mess up the fonts in tricky ways18:01
uvosthe ants are some sw bug18:01
tmlinduvos: oh ok, did not know that18:01
tmlindyeah the ants might be some kind of cache issue18:01
buZztmlind: you mean in the overflowing log? afaik its icd2.log thats just configured 'extra verbose' by default18:02
Wizzupno that's different buZz18:02
Wizzupyou're talking about different things18:02
buZzah ok, didnt get the question18:02
tmlindbuZz: if your device ended up hanging, maybe check your /var/log/messages or syslog18:03
buZzi'm quite sure its because icd2.log is full , which somehow prevents hildon from finishing to start18:04
buZzbut i'll let you know18:04
uvoshmm really18:08
uvoswhen my disk is full i get a popup from xsession to that effect and hildon stars when i click ok18:08
uvosah the reson is presumably because my /home is on a different partion18:10
uvos(and not full)18:10
Wizzupsome parts of icd2 are very verbose every x seconds18:10
Wizzupcurrently18:10
Wizzupthe ofono/modem part18:10
uvosbtw18:10
uvosshould roaming work18:10
uvosi was in italy recently and could not get mobile data to work via icd2 at all18:11
uvoshad to use qmicli18:11
uvosmaybe apn issues again?18:11
uvosmight be good to know whats failing when root is read only18:11
uvos@buzz18:11
buZzi had functional 3G in luxembourgh on leste18:12
buZzwith a dutch sim18:12
Wizzupuvos: well you need to tell ofono to allow roaming18:12
uvosWizzup: sure yeah i treid that18:13
uvosits probubly the apn thing, ill be in austria soon and will try an repo it18:13
uvosand get logs this time18:13
Wizzupgreat18:16
freemangordonhi!18:31
freemangordonso, I am not sure I understand that 'volume keys' change18:31
freemangordonstill, please, don't do changes that will make BT HF volume keys to change pages in book readers18:32
buZztmlind: btw in my 'hanging' it doesnt really hang, holding powerbutton still starts powerdown18:41
Wizzupfreemangordon: why would pages change in ebooks upon volume raise?19:09
uvosbecause bluetooth headphones have volume buttons19:10
uvosbut they dont19:10
uvosnot really19:10
freemangordonWizzup: what device key would you use to turn pages?19:10
uvosthe keys go over alsa19:10
uvosthey do also go over evdev19:10
uvosbut thats a legacy compat thing19:10
uvoswe can just disable it19:10
freemangordonok19:10
Wizzupfreemangordon: I would swipe or press on-screen probably19:11
uvos(this is how pa mangaes to change the volume of the right stream when the vol buttons on bt headphones are pressed)19:11
freemangordonWizzup: well, RN all book readers I used (on n900) use volume keys to turn pages19:11
freemangordonand that's really convenient19:11
uvoshowever on a bt keyboard the vol buttons will change the page19:12
uvosbut then again on a bt keyboard as is f8 and f9 would change volume19:12
uvoswitch is equally wierd19:12
freemangordonright19:12
freemangordonWizzup: the similar stands for osso-xterm19:13
freemangordonanyway, I already got my answer :)19:13
Wizzupfrom my pov making n900 act the same as other devices improves the situation19:13
Wizzupthis way it will work the same as other devices, volume applet will work, too19:13
uvosi men we could change the other devices to be f8 f9 too, (well except x86 tablets and the like, there it is impossible)19:14
Wizzupall other phones simply map these buttons to vol -/+. so I don't know why we would keep n900 different19:14
uvos*mean19:14
Wizzupit's f7/f8 btw, but yeah19:14
freemangordonWizzup: I don;t really care if those are f7/f8 or volume keys or whatever19:16
freemangordonas long is we don;t break the UX19:16
Wizzupok, so in that sense I think we can streamline it to be the volume keys for now19:16
maxwelldfolks, my maemo xterm is crashing whe starting. i dont know what i did that started t cause that. restart does not help.19:32
maxwelldi have xterm luckily19:33
maxwelldimean normal xterm not maemo term19:33
maxwelldwhich runs19:33
maxwelldwith very small letters19:33
maxwelldhow can i start maemo terminal from xterm to see the prooblem?19:34
uvososso-xterm19:34
uvosor osso_xterm19:34
uvosmaybe19:34
maxwelldoh now it doesnt bring me eve debian app menu19:35
maxwelldvery weird19:35
uvossmells hw failure19:38
maemish_Is there still coming a new release. Have been checking twitter and maemo forum. Twitter the last post is from January promising more news next week.20:47
maemish_I recall something similar on maemo forum. I don't mind there is not coming news often but if someone says there is coming then people wait. Maybe better not to promise next news soon when posting.20:48
uvoswe dont do "releases" just install and update (optionally to devel)20:49
uvoswe operate like a rolling distro like arch linux for our packages really20:50
maxwelldso it is a floating point exception22:09
maxwelldi am afraid it is indeed in hw, not just sdcard.22:09
maxwelld😕22:09
Wizzupor broken sd card22:09
Wizzupflash a new image to a new or different sd card and check :)22:09
maxwellduhu, doing that.22:10
maxwelldso i found my old 'adata' sdcard, with it droid works well.22:52
maxwelldbut with new sandisk - no. weird.22:52
maxwellddid fsck, but it didn't find anything.22:53
maxwelldso i am thinking what temporary files to delete.22:53
maxwelldi have strace of osso-xterm when it was dying.22:53
Wizzupfsck on ext4 won't show random data corruption22:53
Wizzupfor integrity checks you would need a different file system22:53
Wizzupthere can also be partial writes after some hang or power failure22:53
WizzupI don't think it makes sense to try to figure out where the SIGFPE comes from per se22:54
maxwelldanyway this is strace https://bpa.st/WYRF222:54
maxwelldi am thinking of fixing the sdcard by removing some temporary files that can be corrupted.22:54
maxwelldsome cache files22:54
maxwelldi wonder what can open osso-xterm that it fails to open.22:55
Wizzupfrom my experience, this is futile, data corruption can cause a million different kind of errors that make no sense22:56
Wizzuplike if the instructions data is corrupted, how would you find out22:56
Wizzupyou can checksum all the files manually, but again, how much time do you want to invest :)22:56
maxwelldwhat would you suggest? just to use a new image and migrate my files to it?22:57
Wizzupprobably, yes22:57
Wizzupand throw away the broken sd card ;P22:57
maxwelldbut... you think it is broken? i am in denial (: it is a new sdcard. (:22:58
Wizzupyou can flash a new image to it and see if that works22:58
maxwelldheh, will do that. (:22:58
Wizzupthen it might not be, but I've had sd cards fail on my pretty quickly at times22:58
maxwelldinteresting that this 'adata' worked for me much more stable and much longer than this 'sandisk'.22:58
maxwelldand it still works.22:59
Wizzupthere are also many fake sandisks23:01
maxwelldeh.23:02
