joergUSB-OTG/hostmode been deliberately broken on hw-level by Nokia. I doubt it will get any better than H-E-N00:15
joergon N900 that is00:17
siceloTHX: with Leste, I have at least been able to supply power to the connected peripheral. but yes, it's low priority to me too08:49
maxwelldi remember some wiki article about vbus10:33
maxwelldand something10:33
maxwelldthere was a way to use it in host mode.10:33
maxwelldand we connected some sensors to it via usb.10:35
maxwelldbut i don't remember anything10:35
maxwelldbut i don't understand it better than others in this room.10:35
Guest224but HEN was good enough to use mouse, keybours and flash drives. And it was easy just normal data cable and USB A female female connector.11:04
Guest224and with powered hub you could use anything.11:04
Guest224that was actually reason why I sold N950 and bought N900 ten years ago.11:06
Guest224btw..my pinephone is dip switched bluetooth off and it still loads all bluetooth stuff in startup.11:17
siceloyes, that doesn't mean there's any bluetooth communication happening11:19
THXjoerg, if H-E-N are able to run on leste, it will be a great19:09
joergit needs a few minor kernel patches21:37
joergwhich are unlikely to be found in mainline kernel since they are useful only for the hw-messed-up N900 USB MUSB/PHY21:39
joergI tried to specify them in a way so they don't conflict with a clean mainline kernel but they are cruft and "unknown" to mainline21:41
joergsorry, H-E-N is more than a decade ago and I forgot most details21:41
joergsicelo: supplying power to the USB should be a nobrainer, if you got I2Ctools then my booston script should do22:15
joergbashing and kicking the damn MUSB-HDRC engine into hostmode is another league though22:16
joergyou need a patched kernel module to send the according commands to that IP block, to set the test mode flag and speed flags22:18
joerghttp://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/usr/sbin/booston  or maybe rather http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/usr/sbin/booston.old22:38
joerg #echo F >/proc/driver/musb-hdrc     :-D22:39
* joerg wonders how to teach lighttpd to deliver shellscripts with a correct mimetype to display them as text in browser22:42
joerg"application/octet-stream" *sigh*22:43
