08:58.54jon_yfreemangordon: is cssu-kernel only required for cssu-thumb?
09:04.16keriokernel-cssu is a rebranded kernel-power
09:07.53jon_yso, just different uname?
09:08.16jon_yis it actually used anywhere else other than in cssu-thumb?
09:08.26kerionope
09:09.19jon_yso, what is the reason for the rebranding instead of pointing to kp?
09:12.11keriojon_y: you shouldn't depend on things outside of your repo
09:12.28kerioalso, /eventually/ it should become something similar to stock
09:12.44jon_yok
09:13.00jon_yI thought it was merely stock+errata fix

11:35.10Palimerlin1991, create repo rtcom-messaging-ui-portrait on gitorious cssu
11:42.46Palimerlin1991, I pushed one line patch which enabling portrait mode in osso-xterm: https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/osso-xterm/commit/9b7b8c022b065cb62df05ecd39a843ce9c760249
11:46.56jon_yPali: would it be possible to disable it? :)
11:47.28Paliorientation lock
11:47.42jon_yok, will do that
11:47.56jon_yn900 is too slow for rotation anyway
11:48.05*** join/#maemo-ssu toxaris (~toxaris@s83-180-246-172.cust.tele2.se)
11:57.25freemangordonjon_y: what?
11:57.32freemangordonwhy too slow?
11:58.05jon_yfreemangordon: there is an uncomfortable lag when it rotates, screen flickering etc
11:58.28kerioinstall the "smooth" transitions.ini
11:58.35freemangordonjon_y: not here
11:58.37jon_ywhere/how?
11:59.09jon_yI really like turbo mode, except for all the red boxes
11:59.35freemangordonalso rotation is "slow" as it follows the parameters in /usr/share/hildon-desktop/transitions.ini
12:00.04jon_yhow do I speed it up?
12:00.25freemangordonjust reduce transition duration
12:00.34jon_yok, will try
12:00.52jon_ybtw, cssu features still safe to use?
12:01.20freemangordonNFC, afaik it has not been updated since long ago
12:02.13jon_yI duration = 50
12:02.16jon_ythat it?
12:03.17freemangordoniirc every parameter in transitions.ini has a comment on what it does, just read it
12:07.43jon_ynope, still flickering after rotation
12:08.01jon_yshaved off 100 every "duration"
12:08.51freemangordonwhat does "flickering" mean in that context? screen being blanked by half os a second?
12:08.57freemangordon*of
12:10.04jon_yyeah, the screen is blacked after it rotates
12:10.12jon_yand then flickers back
12:10.58freemangordonthere is a parameter for that. for how much time to remain blank
12:11.13freemangordoniirc it is on the top of transition.ini
12:11.27freemangordonyou can tweak degree of rotation, etc.
12:11.41freemangordonand you better torn zaxis rotation on
12:11.45freemangordon*turn
12:14.03MrPinguwhat's turbo in transitions.ini?
12:14.09MrPinguHas no comment
12:15.02jon_yMrPingu: makes UI SUPER FAST
12:15.13jon_yat cost of some graphical artifact in the app menu
12:15.38jon_yalso, no more blurness
12:20.44MrPinguThanks
12:21.15jon_yI'd love it if it didn't draw over all the app icons in red
12:21.44jon_yfreemangordon: that part isn't controlled by hildon-desktop?
12:23.27MrPinguYou can disable blurness by making it's value 0 too
12:23.38MrPinguMakes it smoother too ;)
12:23.59jon_yI mean the red overlay
12:24.14jon_yI'm using blurless without colors already
12:24.54MrPinguwithout colors?
12:25.21MrPinguI even have NO blur/blackwhite at all ;)
12:25.22jon_yyeah, there is a color option around the same area
12:25.38jon_ymakes things go faster
12:25.53jon_yI guess they painted the icons red so it feels 3x faster :)
12:26.38MrPinguHmm faster than no blur or whatever effects at all?
12:27.07MrPinguMy menu looks exactly the same as my desktop, except without widgets
12:27.29jon_ymaybe it was psychological for grayscale to feel faster
12:28.24MrPinguMaybe, maybe not
12:28.59MrPingubut I still think turning off blur / grayscale + turning off menu zooming is very fast
12:29.11MrPinguand ofcourse half all duration values :P
12:48.48*** join/#maemo-ssu arcean (~arcean@aadd169.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl)
12:57.37merlin1991Pali: can you add an option into the osso-xterm ui to enable / disable that code?
12:58.28jon_yyes please, I don't want my terminal to spin around when I moved my phone at a wrong angle
12:59.06Palihm, do we really want to have option to enable/disable portrait mode in each application?
12:59.26PaliI think reason for orientation lock was to move this functionality
12:59.54jon_yits not working on some apps
13:00.06merlin1991jon_y: there's a fix coming for that
13:00.50jon_yyay, I was getting annoyed at trying to view my portrait pictures when the phone would "helpfully" rotate it for me
13:00.53merlin1991Pali: orientation lock locks the whole thing, but I can understand when somebody wants a landscape only terminal (more line width) and most things still going portrait
13:02.11merlin1991I know the problem from harmattan, where the terminal launches in portrait, stuff like the output of "mount" is unreadable untill you rotate to landscape and reissue the command
13:03.20jon_ymerlin1991: fix will come in a form of cssu update?
13:03.45merlin1991jon_y: yes, though it's not goign to fix your gallery problem
13:03.53merlin1991that is f00bar by application design
13:03.59jon_yaww
13:05.04merlin1991thinks of going back to the n900 as a main phone
13:05.48merlin1991I currently have a setup where I use the n950 for everything network related, and the n9 for calls, sms and music, but the friggin media play sucks donkey balls
13:05.59luf+1 for special on/off for terminal rotation
13:06.22jon_yterminal should only go wiiiider
13:06.49jon_ystill not used to using the terminal in portrait mode
13:09.31lufI also see the reason when to use terminal in portrait ...
13:09.50merlin1991when?
13:09.58merlin1991:D
13:10.03jon_ythere is screen(1) for that
13:10.21merlin1991at least my use pattern is landscape only for terminal stuff :D
13:10.21jon_ynot sure how usable it is on a touchscreen though
13:10.22lufTo see some long list which isn't wide.
13:10.36jon_yor less(1)
13:10.45merlin1991bah I don't like screen
13:10.55merlin1991when you su into another user screen goes f0bar
13:11.12lufI don't remember but I faced the situation few times.
13:11.18jon_ywell, start screen after you su?
13:11.51merlin1991jon_y: screen -r (after su - someuser) --> Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/0' - please check
13:12.14jon_yno, su as that user, then screen
13:12.27jon_yoh wait
13:12.28jon_yok
13:13.13jon_ysu and then start the terminal with proper x cookie?
13:13.28merlin1991headless server I'm talking about here :D
13:13.54jon_yssh from a different box with a proper terminal emulator?
13:14.03merlin1991yep
13:14.23merlin1991because if I ssh in as the user under which the screen runs, it just works
13:14.24jon_ygotta love ssh, magic toolbox

13:35.06ivgalvezhi all
13:35.14merlin1991moin
13:35.22ivgalvezI've seen recent debate abou inclusion of new kernel in CSSU
13:36.02merlin1991we always debate ,)
13:36.14ivgalvezwhile opt-out and other improvements to freedom of choice are desirable, the whole concept about not including new kernel in CSSU is useless
13:36.27ivgalvezas Diablo CSSU already includes new kernel
13:36.44ivgalvezand each Nokia PR provides new kernel as well
13:40.38MrPinguHi
13:41.10MrPinguTrue, valid argument if you ask me
13:43.28ivgalvezarguments might be valid for kernel patches (in a patch by patch basis) from a technical POV, but not to the whole idea of packaging a new kernel that actually fixes bugs
13:44.20ivgalvezand there are more bugfixes in KP than just the pselect one that should also be packaged to all users
13:44.28jon_yivgalvez: the problem is that it forces on what it thinks is a correct kernel
13:44.55jon_yI already have KP loaded via uboot, but it doesn't know that
13:46.01ivgalvezjon_y: sorry I don't understand what you mean
13:46.34jon_ywell, the cssu kernel flashed over my uboot
13:46.42jon_yit didn't need to do so
13:47.07jon_ykp already handles whatever cssu throws at it
13:47.28ivgalvezif there were a new PR by Nokia with a newer kernel, what would happen in your case?
13:47.28jon_yso the whole flashing is kind of feels like a shove
13:47.48MrPinguhis uboot would be overwritten
13:47.56ivgalvezexactly
13:48.00jon_yI don't even have nokia kernel installed at all
13:48.09jon_yit was removed by cssu
13:48.15jon_ywell, cssu-thumb
13:48.20ivgalvezis uboot part of standard Maemo distribution?
13:48.27ivgalvezor multiboot?
13:48.28ivgalveznope
13:48.30MrPinguNo
13:48.31jon_yuboot for pr13
13:48.44jon_yand then there is pali's uboot
13:48.52ivgalvezCSSU is upgrade/bugfixes for PR1.3
13:49.00MrPinguexactly!
13:49.08ivgalvezand it should provide any bugfixes available to that
13:49.34MrPinguWell but problem is, it might break 3rd party apps
13:49.48ivgalvez(I will avoid the discussion around open source replacements or improved applications)
13:49.57MrPingusee fcam-driver issues
13:50.00jon_yall it needs is a "I know what I'm doing dammit" mode
13:50.27ivgalvezif you have uboot.... you should know what you are doing
13:50.28MrPingujon_y: all we need is an truly open nolo :P
13:50.53MrPinguThat won't happen tho :(
13:51.13jon_ywhats wrong with fcam?
13:51.19MrPinguNothing
13:51.25ivgalvezin the meantime, average user that shouldn't need to know about Kernel Power, uboot, multiboot etc, needs to receive bugfixes
13:51.47jon_yivgalvez: right, which is why the option should be given with scary sounding words
13:52.06jon_yskip the flash at your own risk
13:52.07MrPinguivgalvez, how many average users are there on CSSU?
13:52.19PaliI already have package which patching flashing and if you are going to flash other kernel version it show message to user
13:52.19jon_yyes, that would be another point
13:52.28Palinew kernel-power v53 will depends on that package
13:52.41jon_yPali: yeah, I am using your flasher
13:52.41ivgalvezMrPincu We should promote use of CSSU among avarage users
13:52.44Palimy last u-boot also depends on iy
13:52.46ivgalvezCSSU Stable
13:52.46Pali*it
13:53.00MrPinguivgalvez: sure!
13:53.00Palideb package fiasco-image-update-ask
13:53.05jon_yI thought I had no choice to avoid the flashing, since I saw only an "agree" button
13:53.19Palijon_y, so cancel it
13:53.24MrPinguTake for example gemote, closed source application
13:53.31jon_yI did not know how to cancel it
13:53.37MrPingudepends on qt 4.7.0
13:53.37jon_ynow I know though
13:53.46Paliclick above window
13:53.53Palimaemo has no cancel button
13:54.01jon_yyes, I did that as soon as I learned it
13:54.04Palicancel is done by clicking out of window
13:54.06MrPingucssu upgraded qt to 4.7.4 and broke the app
13:54.33ivgalvezCSSU must try not to break 3rd party applications, but that could be unavoidable. MrPingu 's example or LinkedUp that fails miserably with newer Qt due to focus lost
13:55.20MrPinguIt's a bit of a dilemma because 4.7.4 fixed also alot of bugs
13:55.41MrPingumaintaining backward compatibility can be a pain sometimes
13:56.03ivgalvezif the only problem packaging newer kernel is that users with custom kernels might need to reinstall them, then that's not a real issue but an annoyance (for a few advanced users that will know how to deal with it)
13:56.18MrPinguTrue that!
13:56.47MrPinguMy concern is more that it might break 3rd party apps from the ovistore
13:56.50jon_yPali: what does kp53 change, and why was kp52 not in the regular update channels?
13:57.21Palijon_y, kp52 was not released yet
13:57.23ivgalvezMrPingu, that's really a concern
13:57.30Palithere is only pre release version
13:57.35ivgalveznot all this drama about flashing kernels
13:57.37jon_yoh I see
13:57.44PaliI'm waiting for dfries musb patches
13:58.02Paliafter that there will be time to testing and then will go to extras
13:58.18jon_ydfries musb?
13:58.38MrPinguIf you upgraded from *official* PR1.2 to PR 1.3, you also lost your Power-kernel
13:59.01MrPinguTotally behind you ivgalvez, in that matter
13:59.04Palimusb driver patches from david fries
13:59.15jon_ywell, with pali's ask mod, no longer :)
13:59.46MrPingupali, hows exams?
14:00.11PaliMrPingu, finished in sep :-)
14:00.16jon_yI held out of 1.3 for quite some time until I needed a reflash from apt problems
14:01.44MrPinguStill, you upgraded, you lost your kernel. So why wouldn't cssu not do that too, regarding your uboot argument
14:02.20jon_ybecause it was hosed anyway?
14:02.58MrPinguwell in that case, hose your device first, then upgrade
14:03.26jon_ylike I said, put a "I know what I'm doing" button, like Pali's flasher
14:03.44MrPinguOK, fine with that too ;)
14:03.44jon_ythat would have been pretty nice to know you can ignore the flash
14:04.01MrPinguI agree
14:04.12jon_ywell, you better know what you're doing if you skip the flash
14:04.24MrPinguas probably kp > cssu
14:04.30MrPinguin terms of features
14:04.53ivgalvezmerlin1991 I think you should take a final decision regarding this and other issues, you won't be able to keep everybody happy
14:05.06MrPinguI mean kp will include the same functionality as cssu
14:05.53MrPinguonly cssu-kernel only the necessary patches, not the OC patches and such
14:06.16MrPinguThis the way it should be in my eyes, not saying it is :P
14:07.28jon_yif cssh-kernel is basically the stock kernel+cssu feature requirements, it might actually have been useful if you already have kp
14:07.48jon_yfallback kernel in case your kp install is doing something undesirable
14:08.10jon_ycould happen with kp bugs that leak through

14:26.17freemangordonjon_y: KP and the kernel to be in CSSU are (or at least should be) a totally different beasts. Not because of the paches they contain, but because of the way they are/will be maintained
14:26.53jon_yfreemangordon: yeah, I know what you mean
14:27.09jon_ycssu at least from what I read, is supposed to be more conservative
14:27.33MrPingufreemangordon: but we can assume that kp = cssu + power features
14:27.35freemangordonexactly
14:27.36MrPingu?
14:27.55freemangordonMrPingu: define "power feaurea"
14:28.03freemangordon*features
14:28.38MrPingupower features: modules for host mode, OC, 720p bridgedriver
14:28.38jon_ypppoe and ip routing?
14:28.47jon_yvpn?
14:29.00freemangordonis .ko file sitting in /lib/modules... , but unloaded a power feature?
14:29.26MrPinguI don't know
14:29.54MrPingubut if it isn't used, why is it included?
14:30.51freemangordonMrPingu: what if it is included?
14:31.02MrPingueating space
14:31.28freemangordonwe are talking about the freedom, but I don;t think stripping kernel functionality is equal to giving freedom to the users
14:31.43MrPinguI don't care what's included, I will probably go KP anyway
14:32.16MrPingubut we are also talking about that cssu-kernel is more conservative
14:32.37freemangordonsure
14:33.20MrPinguin that case: normal user doesn't need the charging driver, wlan driver, hostmode
14:33.29MrPinguthese people go KP anyway
14:33.53freemangordonbut he needs iptables to run qtmobile hotspot
14:33.58MrPinguYes
14:34.07freemangordonsee, who will evaluate what "normal user" needs and what not
14:34.18MrPinguThat's a bit of a problem
14:34.23jon_ysee the latest stock iphone
14:34.24freemangordonnot me, that's for sure

14:34.50freemangordonjon_y: bullshit
14:34.52jon_ydoes the stock iphone has an equivalent of qtmobile?
14:34.58MrPingubut IMO iptables is less progressive than eg host mode and more of these bleeding-edge stuff
14:35.01jon_yok, I was just joking
14:35.03Palimerlin1991, ok
14:35.10Palifreemangordon, now testing
14:35.26MrPinguBut still who defines: "normal user" indeed
14:35.34freemangordonMrPingu: exactly
14:35.38jon_ylooking at the iphone givees you some objective goals to compare to
14:35.39Palifreemangordon, it show me both horizontal & vertical scrollbar
14:35.58jon_ythe n900 is not the iphone though
14:36.11MrPinguPali: rtcom-messaging-ui?
14:36.14jon_yyeah, selection bias sucks
14:36.18freemangordonPali: but you should not need to scroll horizontaly
14:36.34DocScrutinizer51I vote against implementing a (CSSU special) orientation lock into every app. The way to go is to make the orientation lock widget in status bar more smart and aware of the currently upfront application window, so you can edit blacklist settings for that particular app specifically

14:37.42freemangordonI am in a prcess of REing part of systemui, so hopefully we'll have the interface to add stuff to power menu and such more easily
14:37.43Palibut I need to scroll in SMS
14:38.01freemangordonhmm, that's strange
14:38.22freemangordonPali: lemme check
14:39.24MrPingupali: talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=955119
14:40.13DocScrutinizer51btw while we're at it, we should augment simple brightness widget screen-on-always function in a similar way, keeping screen on only when brightlisted app is upfront
14:40.40DocScrutinizer51basically identical GUI paradigm
14:41.07freemangordonPali: WFM, maybe I didn't send you some file, lemme check again
14:41.37MrPinguDocScrutinizer51: does that applet have some kind of whitelist?
14:41.48DocScrutinizer51not yet
14:42.14DocScrutinizer51it's as global as orientation lock is, right now
14:42.34MrPinguJust thought I was studip and didn't see that before .P
14:42.44DocScrutinizer51nah :)
14:43.07freemangordonPali: where did you put those files?
14:43.18PaliI relaced original
14:43.23freemangordon"/usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html"
14:43.30Palihm, now I testing and for some SMS it is OK
14:43.33Paliand for some not
14:43.46freemangordondid you reboot?
14:44.15MrPingukillall rtcom-messaging-ui is enough
14:44.22MrPinguatleast afaik
14:45.03Palinow after killall it is OK :-)
14:45.12PaliI forgot about it
14:45.14freemangordonPALIIII
14:45.22freemangordon:D:D:D
14:45.28Paliso messaging-ui does not close window
14:45.33Palionly hide it
14:46.10Paliand when I opened old SMS (which was not shown after last boot) is was ok
14:46.15Paliand for some new, it not worked...
14:46.50freemangordonin that regard, why modest does not auto-rotate when forced rotation is disabled?
14:47.21Palifreemangordon, but now all avatars (also empty) are on separate line
14:47.26Palibefore it was in text
14:48.10Pali^^ this is only for SMS
14:48.45MrPinguPali:  talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=955119
14:49.06PaliMrPingu, why?
14:49.09MrPinguthat layout is the default with portraitsuporrt
14:49.33PaliI have forcerotation enabled
14:49.47Paliwithout it rtcom messaging ui portrait not working...
14:49.47MrPinguI understand
14:50.17MrPinguI mean, the layout of the conversations are just css if I am right
14:50.31MrPinguthese files + forced rotation
14:50.32freemangordonPali: layout might be a little bit different to stock, didn't checked
14:50.37freemangordonMrPingu: yes
14:50.42Palithen, ok
14:51.13freemangordonPali: all avatrs are here
14:51.20MrPinguThe link I send you has the default layout + portrait support so you don't have to scroll sideways
14:51.24freemangordonPali: please, reboot :P
14:52.07freemangordonMrPingu:  there is a nasty bug on TMO, if you click on the avatar to open a conversation, ui hangs
14:52.36freemangordons/conversation/contact/
14:53.12MrPinguNever experienced that
14:53.47freemangordonok, there are several versions of css, there is at least one hat is ok, but I was not sure which one
14:54.02freemangordonso I sent what i use to pali, it works for sure
14:54.39MrPinguNP
14:55.21MrPingugood to see portrait vkb is almost ready too :)
14:56.49freemangordonyeah, kudos to nicolai
14:58.40MrPinguInstalled that deb as I was eager to try but it didn't work as stated in his edit :P

15:07.38freemangordonMrPingu: did you install vkbrenederer as well?
15:09.25MrPinguvkbrenderer is included doesn't it?
15:10.22freemangordonBTW whitelisting rtcom-messaging-ui does not work as it should, at least here. Lets hope latest patches from arcean fix that

15:12.16freemangordonMrPingu: of course it is installed :D
15:12.26freemangordonthis is part of PR1.x
15:12.34freemangordonthe question is which version?
15:13.37freemangordonhmm, actually it is not changed
15:14.04MrPinguProblem here is, it doesn't get displayed in portrait. Vkb doesn't show up at all

16:34.54Paliwhich patches?
16:35.03freemangordonall of them.
16:35.30freemangordonit is needed to decide what will go into CSSU kernel
16:35.31Paliok
16:35.41freemangordonI'll do a page on wiki
16:35.51freemangordon(or will ask someone to do it :D)
16:36.06Palibtw, I'm waiting for musb patches from dfries
16:36.07freemangordonor if ou have a better idea, I am ok
16:36.14Paliwiki is ok
16:36.23freemangordonfor suspend to RAM?
16:36.55Paliyes
16:37.07Paliand rtc fixes
16:37.30freemangordonthats ok, but I dion't think those will have to be included in CSSU kernel. At least not in the initial version
16:37.37Paliok
16:38.07freemangordonwe'd rather taker kernel-cssu as basis, remove bqxxx patches and assess the others
16:38.54Paliin kernel-power there are for kp52 new patches like udf fix
16:39.02Paliwhich should go to cssu kernel
16:39.24freemangordoni did a quick look ath what remains, maybe ramzswap should be removed too. though I am not absolutely sure, as it is just one .ko more
16:39.42Paliudf fix - from upstream kernel which fixing mouting UDF filesystem on sd card/usb flash disk
16:40.08freemangordonok, if you say so. that is why we need to make the assessment

16:46.06DocScrutinizer05took 'us' how long - in KP versions - until I err we noticed complete fuckup of I2C kernel driver?
16:47.17freemangordonthere was at least one report that TI gstreamer components does not work with it. Though I'd rather take the risk and fix userland
16:47.49DocScrutinizer05and how long took 'doesn't boot when plugged in to fastcharger', if that's fixed at all yet?
16:47.52freemangordonthat way we remove TI's closed source binaries and replace them with gst-dsp

16:48.31DocScrutinizer05once you noticed the issue, yes
16:49.04freemangordonTBH I don't see the reason to remove hostmode, I am not aware of any issues. The patch as such I mean
16:49.31freemangordonPali: ^^^
16:49.56DocScrutinizer05the patch as h-e-n/paul did it is considered rather safe as it doesn't mess with normal operation of USB
16:50.12freemangordonthis is what I am talking about
16:50.55freemangordonPali's patches will wait until KP52 enter extras. If there is extras by that time :D:D:D
16:51.04freemangordonPali: ok with that?
16:51.21freemangordonor you consider your patches sfae?
16:51.24freemangordon*safe
16:51.49Palirx51_battery is safe
16:52.14freemangordonyeah, thats correct. and it is .ko, so np with it
16:52.44DocScrutinizer05at least it *shouldn't* ;-)
16:53.05freemangordonyeah. but we all know what it does, so...
16:53.49freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: btw did you test ppoll/pselect?
16:53.54DocScrutinizer05nah, nobody ever *knows* what a patch does. You might have educated guess
16:54.15Palifreemangordon, what is state of 720p playback?
16:54.19Paliready to extras?
16:54.21Palior not?

16:54.22freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: me and pali know what rx_51battery does
16:54.44freemangordonPali: kernel side? or userland
16:54.53Paliboth
16:55.10DocScrutinizer05I'm talking about patches like hostmode, not about modules which a pretty defined on what they do when not loaded
16:55.26DocScrutinizer05s/ a / are /
16:56.18freemangordonPali: it is a bit complicated. combination of KP+gst-dsp(maemo5 HD patch)+harmattan codecs is rock stable AFAIK
16:56.44arcean"freemangordon: BTW whitelisting rtcom-messaging-ui does not work as it should, at least here. Lets hope latest patches from arcean fix that"  works here with the latest h-d :)
16:56.47freemangordonnot 100% sure for other combinations
16:56.57freemangordonarcean: great
16:57.13Palifreemangordon, ok
16:57.31freemangordonarcean: I was about to ask you, but we started another discussion
16:57.32DocScrutinizer05since Paul messed with the musb_hdrc and related src quite a bit, it's only an assumption he didn't introduce some small typo that might still mess up normal hostmode operation. But I guess that would've shown up meanwhile
16:57.45freemangordon:nod:
16:57.45Palifreemangordon, what about create one deb package which install all needed? (and depends on kernel-feature-..)?
16:57.56Paliand push it to extras?
16:58.11freemangordonPali: gst-dsp is a system component
16:58.19Palidpkg-divert
16:58.37freemangordonnaah, i'd rather want that in CSSU
16:58.44Palifor extras there is no other solution
16:58.47Palior CSSU
16:58.57freemangordonafter I make it compatible with both old and new codecs

17:00.36DocScrutinizer05I hope you guys keep in mind that this leete new kernel still has to be small enough to co-exist with uBoot in kernel MTD partition
17:00.58Palilast kp52 is still small
17:01.06DocScrutinizer05ok, fine then
17:01.09freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: asking who? u-boot's maintainer for n900?
17:01.13freemangordon:P
17:01.34PaliDocScrutinizer05, but kp is loaded from eMMC, so size is not problem :-)
17:01.50DocScrutinizer05DAFAQ NO!
17:02.06freemangordonPali: the point was that it should be small enough to be embedded in u-boot
17:02.07DocScrutinizer05CSSU kernel is a replacement for stock kernel!
17:02.25Paliyes, it is still small
17:02.32freemangordon*enough*
17:02.49freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: most of the added stuff is modules
17:02.55DocScrutinizer05:nod:
17:03.13freemangordonzImage is not increased much in size

17:03.53DocScrutinizer05now that's a word
17:04.00freemangordonwe still have some 100k free
17:04.14freemangordoniirc Kp is about 170x KiB
17:04.22DocScrutinizer05good
17:04.38DocScrutinizer05otherwise we're screwed
17:05.10freemangordonyeah. but so far there is no problem
17:05.48freemangordonand we can always strip stuff to .ko and load it in preinit
17:05.50freemangordonif needed
17:05.56Palibtw I compiled u-boot with thumb without eMMC support and is smaller then nolo
17:06.09Palianybody who will try to flash it instead nolo? :D
17:06.16freemangordonhehe
17:06.28freemangordonI have only one spare device :P
17:06.35DocScrutinizer05since I think CSSU-kernel installer should check and correctly detect: plain vanilla stock kernel in MTD, uBoot+stock-kernel in MTD, KP in MTD, and multiboot (I can't believe saying this), and then suggest to install the right replacement for each one of them
17:06.39Paliemmc support is really big, so it must be disabled :-(
17:06.54freemangordonhow big?
17:07.06freemangordonand which compiler?

17:08.06freemangordonca;t we split u-boot?
17:08.11freemangordon*can't
17:08.22Paliwe can use uboot SPL
17:08.38Paliuboot spl is very very small bootloader which can load u-boot
17:08.46Palifrom nand, mmc, ...
17:08.57Palibut nand support for rx51 in uboot not working
17:09.05freemangordonI know :P
17:09.08DocScrutinizer05at least one of those options, particularly >>uBoot+stock-kernel in MTD<< will imply some size restrictions on CSSU zImage
17:09.15Paliand uboot spl has no output (only serial console)
17:09.35freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: so far there is no proble with zImage size
17:09.39freemangordon*problem
17:09.50DocScrutinizer05that's why I said "good"
17:10.20freemangordonAnd I don't think there will be, as we are not adding stuff to zImage. usually :)
17:10.21Palitada! now I got email that rx51 code was included into uboot :-)
17:10.33freemangordoncongrats
17:10.39DocScrutinizer05ooh, and for the chanlog: cssu kernel updater should also do a backup of current kernel, by mtd_utils

17:13.38freemangordoniirc
17:14.05DocScrutinizer05again, you got NFC about which kernel user actually got installed, all you can do is trying to detect the ones you know, but there might be mishaps
17:14.30PaliDocScrutinizer05, kerel backup is not possible yet
17:14.35DocScrutinizer05sure it is
17:14.42freemangordonthat is why I said we should ask those with non-stock kernel
17:14.47Palithere is some header and footer
17:14.57Pali0xFFFF will have for that support
17:15.02Palibut need to RE it
17:15.03DocScrutinizer05not on mtd-utils
17:15.21freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: is it raw mtd device?
17:15.25Palibut you cant flash that dump in normal way
17:15.30freemangordonI doubt
17:15.41DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: check out mtd-utils
17:16.00DocScrutinizer05Pali: nope, but I can flash it using mtdwrite
17:16.08DocScrutinizer05nandwrite actually
17:16.17Palibut this is not normal way
17:16.21freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: just ask the user when you detect non-stock kernel. Let him decide whether he wants his fancy kernel or CSSU one
17:16.25DocScrutinizer05save with nanddump, restore with nandwrite
17:16.51DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: nope - ALWAYS ask user
17:16.58Palifiasco-image-ask now asking if you are going to change kernel
17:17.06freemangordonok, ok
17:17.12DocScrutinizer05tell him what you think you detected and what you suggest and will do when he agrees
17:17.18Paliand you can cancel flashing
17:17.25DocScrutinizer05but nevertheless - make a backup
17:17.49freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: nandread/write is too hackish way for CSSU stuff to make backup

17:18.50freemangordonif someone has his custom kernel flashed, lets assume he knows what kernel is and where to find the debs if he need to restore it someday
17:19.13freemangordonor...
17:19.21DocScrutinizer05yesterday you told me users get scared by a kind question, since there's the word kernel in that question. Today you suggest users should do kernel backup by themselves rather than CSSU installed doing it for them
17:19.51freemangordonI was talking about "stock" kernel users
17:20.02freemangordonnot about those with custom kernels
17:20.25freemangordonwe should always ask those with kernel which is not stock
17:20.37DocScrutinizer05again, WTF will you do when user's kernel is detected as stock kernel by error in your cute updater?
17:21.00freemangordonwill flash CSSU kernel without asking :P
17:21.20DocScrutinizer05I will shoot you without asking, when you do that on my device
17:21.33DocScrutinizer05;-P
17:21.54Paliyou should read ham update changelog

17:28.30freemangordonmost of the n900 users are not like that
17:28.43freemangordonand CSSU is about them, not about kerio
17:28.46Palinote that only roofs can be mounted

17:29.31Palibackup of kernel in rootfs is useless
17:29.47Paliif new will not work, there is no (normal) way to restore it
17:30.24DocScrutinizer05seems freemangordon thinks CSSU is solely about *his* *notion* of a standard user, while not being able to even tell how CSSU is related to standard users or WTF a standard user is - in *his* notion which seems the only correct notion on this earth
17:30.25freemangordonPali: I see doc's point as not a fallback it new kernel skrew the things
17:30.37freemangordonbut rather if the user wants to restore his kernel later
17:31.33freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: you're still missing my point
17:31.46freemangordonit is my English, I can bet
17:31.49DocScrutinizer05Pali: sorry, my updates write happily to /opt and even MyDocs, every time
17:32.45PaliI think it is up to user, where how and when will backup what
17:33.01freemangordonMy point is that there are users who don;t give a shit what kernel is and which kernel version they are using as long as their device works. And even after that.
17:33.21freemangordonyou should put those in your equation too
17:33.46DocScrutinizer05so WHAT?
17:34.30freemangordonasking such user "do you want to flash a new fancy kernel" will scare the shit out of him
17:34.37DocScrutinizer05there are even more users who don't gibe a shit if the app is installed from extras or nokia repo, still we got that warning about 3rd party source and you even need to click "I accept"
17:35.06freemangordonbecause nokia has to do it
17:35.12DocScrutinizer05so do we
17:35.13freemangordonfo legal reasons
17:35.17freemangordonno
17:35.45freemangordonno for users of "stock" kernel
17:35.55freemangordoneven nokia didn't do it
17:36.20Paliyou should not ask this for user of stock kernel
17:36.30freemangordonexactly
17:36.41Paliwhat happen if you unpack new modules, but user decide to stop flashing?
17:36.51Paliyou can have unbootable phone...
17:36.59Palior some modules will not work, ...
17:37.08freemangordonPali: well, we can prevent that
17:37.24freemangordonif we put that warning in preinst
17:37.42freemangordon... of some package
17:37.58DocScrutinizer05meh, we're same point as yesterday. You deny benefit of informing user about the fact that a new kernel will get installed, you deny some users might want an option to stay with stock kernel, you even deny those users who might get scared according to your deep userbase study might not be able to do a backup with nanddump, and you feel happy and self confident about you *never* could fail on all that shite and might *need* a
17:37.59DocScrutinizer05recovery path afterwords
17:38.31DocScrutinizer05Pali: bullshit
17:38.38ivgalvezif Diablo CSSU can distribute new kernel why shouldn't Fremantle CSSU?
17:38.48DocScrutinizer05if your procedure allows that, then your procedure is crap
17:38.53freemangordonif the kernel gets screwed you don;t have any other recovery but to flash rootfs
17:39.07DocScrutinizer05ivgalvez: now you!!!
17:39.17DocScrutinizer05we're not even faintly discussing this
17:39.47ivgalvezyou are discussing ways to avoid flashing a kernel
17:39.57ivgalvezwhy would you need to provide that
17:40.00DocScrutinizer05it's about letting user know that we do, or hide it away from him and not offer him the options that are immanent in the process
17:40.13freemangordonNokia do it in that way, I don;t see any reason to di it better than Nokia by asking those with non-stock kernal and flashing stock replacement without asking those on stock
17:40.36DocScrutinizer05you're rather insane
17:40.51freemangordons/to di/why not do/
17:41.04DocScrutinizer05what's next? cssu-cherry, since Nokia also did it?
17:41.07ivgalvezDocScrutinizer05 can you provide any examle of Linux distribution that ask user about installing a new kernel?
17:41.42DocScrutinizer05ALL desktop updaters ask user about each package they update
17:41.48ivgalvezactually, what you are proposing is anew feature
17:41.49DocScrutinizer05even friggin apper
17:42.55DocScrutinizer05meh, sorry guys I'm fed up with this, right after not even getting my shoes off when coming home from daywork.
17:46.11DocScrutinizer05ivgalvez: kernel update is a new feature, informing user about the fact that kernel gets updated is the only sane thing to do, and allowing powerusers to say "pretty please nope, don't touch that stuff, I did something you stupid installer have no idea of and I prefer to deal with the issue later, manually" is not an insane scaring of dumbarses but the most normal way any software should be designed. When there's an option, there
17:46.12DocScrutinizer05has to be a way for user to decide on that option
17:47.14freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: how is the kernel different from glibc, gtk, hildon-desktop, etc...
17:47.32DocScrutinizer05and please stop telling me we scare away N900 users by politely and kindly informing them they have a checkbox below to stop kernel update - especially when a lengthy ecxplanation follows abotu the detailed consequences
17:48.08DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: if you don't know, I guess you will find out by a few days of pondering
17:48.12DocScrutinizer05or not

17:54.59DocScrutinizer05and ETX

18:08.17merlin1991I didn't check tbh, but nobody contacted me, so I guess it wasn't looked into

18:17.27DocScrutinizer05(([2012-11-02 18:55:08] <ivgalvez> I should have been warned)) Absolutely 110% correct. Though you already got warned by a requester when you installed busybox-power. Too bad it didn't scare you away from the whole thing ;-D
18:17.58DocScrutinizer05you also got warned when you installed CSSU-T
18:19.22Lava_Croftwhat is the biggest problem with bb-power?
18:19.53DocScrutinizer05but nobody is going to warn you before replacing your stock kernel by something incompatible to your fcam modules, if we accept freemangordon's notion on how to kick ass of "stupid standard users". Hell, you'll not even have a chance to opt out, other than uninstalling MP
18:20.25MrPinguYes those fcam-drivers
18:20.44MrPinguthe version from extras-devel or testing are working
18:20.59DocScrutinizer05replace that by whatever reason you might not even dream of, for a user wanting to stay with stock kernel
18:21.10MrPingucan't these go into extras then?
18:21.14ivgalvezfcam drivers work with KP
18:21.35DocScrutinizer05bwahahaha
18:22.15MrPinguI know but not those in extras
18:22.27MrPinguOnly in extras-devel
18:22.28DocScrutinizer05FAQ #1 with KP: "my camera doesn't work anymore. What shall I do"
18:22.59MrPinguanswer: enable extras-devel and install fcam-drivers
18:23.07DocScrutinizer05ivgalvez: read about `man modprobe` and vermagic
18:23.25MrPingubut we don't want to enable extras-devel for "user" do we?

18:23.59Lava_Croftright now*
18:24.18ivgalvezpromote fcam drivers then
18:24.19DocScrutinizer05we don't want to forcefeed a new kernel to all cssu users unconditionally, since we got the opportunity to make it optional
18:24.24Lava_Crofti mean, does stuff actually get promoted these days?
18:24.29ivgalvez"we"
18:24.33ivgalvez?
18:25.16DocScrutinizer05lemme rephrase
18:25.38DocScrutinizer05we - the users of CSSU - don't want to get forcefed a new kernel to all cssu users unconditionally, since we got the opportunity to make it optional
18:25.59Lava_Croftif the kernel is not needed by the CSSU to function, you are correct
18:26.08DocScrutinizer05it is not needed
18:26.23Lava_Croftdoes it qualify as an open-source replacement?
18:26.32DocScrutinizer05no
18:26.39MrPinguivgalvez, remember sixwheeledbeast and I started to sort out extrasf-devel?
18:26.43Lava_Croftsimple case make it optional then
18:26.44DocScrutinizer05it qualifies as a bugfix, nothing else
18:27.00DocScrutinizer05exactly my argument, it's *optional*
18:27.10Lava_Croftwasnt this 'tried' with that camera ui too?
18:27.21Lava_Croftforcing users to upgrade to it via cssu
18:27.27Lava_Croftor is this a completely different kind of case
18:27.29ivgalvezMrPingu I have done a lot of review in extras-testing as well, the problem is that actually we don't control repositories
18:27.35DocScrutinizer05but the guys here don't even want to consider *asking* user about whether she wants to opt OUT
18:27.37ivgalvezadministration is in Nemeind hands
18:28.16Lava_Croftwell, apart from the sake of 'correctly' handling optional stuff like this, is there really a reason *not* to install KP with cssu?
18:28.37DocScrutinizer05Lava_Croft: nope, it's basically all the same old story as with camera-ui, just this time it's about *kernel*
18:28.53Lava_Crofti mean, asking if the user wants to install the kernel just because you want to be correct in asking the user is a bit, well, silly
18:28.54DocScrutinizer05and this time we already made it optional
18:29.14DocScrutinizer05by matter of dependencies
18:29.30Lava_Croftbut overall, stuff like this kernel and that new camera ui should be optional and have to be enabled by the user
18:29.36Lava_Croftvia a nice tickbox thingy, you know
18:29.49Lava_Croftkind of exactly as you desire
18:30.02freemangordonLava_Croft: this new kernel, along with this new glibc are fixing a very nasty bug
18:30.24ivgalvezDocScrutinizer05 you can insist as much as you want. Nokia kernel has bugs that are fixed in KP and those fixes must be distributed to normal users
18:30.26freemangordonand if bugfixing is optional for CSSU, I am speechless
18:30.28DocScrutinizer05but freemangordon claims it "will scare hell out of users" to get a screen telling "we have a quite huge update this time. Click 'advanced' below to configure, if you feel you need to do that"
18:30.33ivgalveznormal users don't care about kernels
18:30.42Lava_Croftfreemangordon: but KP also comes with a lot of other things
18:30.47Lava_Croftthat go far beyond fixing nasty bug
18:30.53freemangordonLava_Croft: sure, so what
18:31.09DocScrutinizer05ivgalvez: how arrogant can you get?
18:31.28freemangordonwhat bad does a couple of .ko modules sitting in rootfs
18:31.29MrPinguWhats the defenition of normal user?
18:31.31Lava_Croftfreemangordon: then use a kernel that only fixes those bugs?
18:31.33ivgalvezDocScrutinizer05, looking to a mirror?
18:31.40MrPingubesides eating space? nothing
18:31.49freemangordonexactly
18:31.58Lava_Croftfreemangordon: i dont know how nasty the bug is tho
18:32.13MrPingubut since space is very precious in rootfs
18:32.19freemangordongoogle for ppoll/pselect arm
18:32.24freemangordonLava_Croft: ^^^
18:32.42MrPingu(silently pointing to bb-p discussion) :P
18:32.43DocScrutinizer05the 70% non-normal CSSU users don't count when it comes to omitting a sane way to decide on whether power users want or don't want to install that kernel? You, the evil emperor, are going to decide for all your people that they have to use that new kernel? sane, for sure
18:33.17freemangordonMrPingu: this is not a valid argument for me (rootfs space)
18:33.21freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: stop that
18:33.34ivgalvezOK, now that you are talking about emperor, let's do a voting
18:33.44freemangordonI said at least 3 times that we should ask those with non-stock kernel
18:34.07MrPinguFreemangordon: me neither but I can imagine there are users
18:34.17DocScrutinizer05ivgalvez, the evil emperor, commands his people to vote
18:34.28freemangordonhmm, where is estel?
18:34.33freemangordonor wait
18:34.47freemangordonhe has stolen doc's nick
18:35.01DocScrutinizer05ivgalvez: democracy is about protection of minorities
18:35.14Lava_Crofti think im not qualified to judge this bug's severity
18:35.39MrPinguDocScrutinizer05: democracy is the dictatorship of the majority ;)
18:35.48freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: and those minorities, i.e the ones with custom kernel will get protected by the question"do you want CSSU kenel" flashed
18:35.58DocScrutinizer05nope, definitely not, unless we're on #maemo-ssu
18:35.59ivgalvezDocScrutinizer05: we are going to have a lot of fun with you during next Coucnil period :D
18:36.29freemangordonMrPingu: :nod:
18:36.30DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: noipe sir, your logic is flawed
18:36.39freemangordonno, it is not
18:37.23MrPinguWell, why not make a poll in TMO, the most "users" are there
18:37.29Lava_Crofthello this is going nowhere, DocScrutinizer05 and freemangordon
18:37.39freemangordonLava_Croft: as usual :D
18:37.39DocScrutinizer05I could elaborate on your stereotypes of minorieties, how you pick one and ignore the other. But I know this won't help
18:37.56DocScrutinizer05since your argument of scared user been silly and made up just enough
18:38.40MrPinguYou both have different insight of what an user possibly *might* think
18:38.56ivgalvezDocScrutinizer05: in the meantime, there is an important Council meeting taking place...
18:38.58MrPinguKernel sounds very deep
18:39.11freemangordonMrPingu: and hot sounds glibc then?
18:39.14freemangordon*how
18:39.23MrPingufor me as deep as kernel
18:39.30DocScrutinizer05"there's an option for XY, but we better don't offer it to user by *ANY* means, since user for sure would kill himself because we scared him so much" <- rethink!!!
18:39.35MrPingubut for normal user not as "deep" as kernel
18:39.38freemangordonbecause the bug in question is fixed partially in the kernel and partially in glibc
18:40.04ivgalvezfremangordon, there are even more important fixes in current KP
18:40.13freemangordonivgalvez: I know
18:40.23ivgalvezsmartreflex is number 1 for me
18:40.33freemangordonwell, we'll not enable that
18:40.48freemangordonrecently a guy reported SR unstable on his device
18:41.01ivgalvezthat's unfortunate
18:41.06DocScrutinizer05that's normal
18:41.15freemangordonbut anyway that is irrelevant to what we discuss
18:41.28freemangordonwell, it could be that his device is just faulty, but still
18:41.29DocScrutinizer05since those messing with SR usually have a 15% clue what it's all about
18:41.51DocScrutinizer05at best
18:41.58freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: you're getting more arrogant that I can take
18:42.19DocScrutinizer05aha
18:42.43freemangordonjust lower you attitude a bit, ok?
18:43.30freemangordonI don;t think we are here to measure who's longer
18:43.48DocScrutinizer05I'm not the one arrogantly depriving users of the freedom of choice, by supposing they'd get scared to death by whatever nice phrased question I could come up with
18:44.07ivgalvezfreemangordon, you have demonstrated already to have the longer one...
18:44.15freemangordonhehe
18:44.46ivgalvezin a real meritocracy your word should be listened with respect
