13:40.38freemangordon_ade_: hi
13:40.41_ade_hi
13:40.59_ade_freemangordon: does it mean a change in the alarm cookies
13:41.03freemangordonso, the point is, can some parameters be passed from alarmd
13:41.09freemangordonyeah, something like that
13:41.25freemangordonthough it is dbus call, with variable arguments AIUI
13:41.36freemangordonso no changes in alarmd should be needed
13:42.11freemangordonno idae if that can be done
13:42.14freemangordon*idea
13:42.15_ade_just extra (new) arguments in the cookie?
13:42.39freemangordonmaybe, NFC how you setup an alarm in worldclock :D:D:D
13:42.45freemangordonbut I guess so
13:43.57freemangordonfollowing KISS principle,I think snooze count and sound duration per alarm should be the only things to be aded
13:44.14_ade_freemangordon: I also asked you about per alarm sounds. You can specify them, but the default sound is always played. Is that a bug, or missing in alarmd/alarm-ui?
13:44.22freemangordonwe really don;t need dofferent sound per alarm, at least for now
13:44.45freemangordonhmm, strange, lemme look at the code
13:46.03freemangordonWTF?!?
13:46.04freemangordonhttps://gitorious.org/community-ssu/osso-systemui-alarm/blobs/master/osso-systemui-alarm.c#line659
13:46.34freemangordonhttps://gitorious.org/community-ssu/osso-systemui-alarm/blobs/master/osso-systemui-alarm.c#line668
13:46.52freemangordonwho the fuck wrote that code :(
13:47.00freemangordon_ade_: yeah, seems like bug
13:47.29_ade_that would be the static alarm for the calender, the clock uses the one in gconf
13:47.42freemangordonBTW do we have UI to specify alarm sound?
13:47.59freemangordonboth use gconf setting
13:48.13freemangordonsee ^^^
13:48.53_ade_okay, but you can set a preferred alarmsound, and that will be used
13:49.47freemangordon_ade_: yes, but this is not sound per alarm, rather sound per alarm type
13:50.10_ade_Yes, it will always be the current one then. Alarmd gives the parameter to set a custom sound, but it has no effect
13:50.47freemangordon_ade_: yes, because alarmUI uses gconf setting, not the one in alarm event
13:51.54_ade_ah ok. Something else to adapt for you ;-)
13:52.02freemangordonbut lets leave sounds per alarm for now, it will be more complicated than snooze count/sound duration
13:52.33_ade_of course. I will have a look at the things you like to see and report back.
13:52.44freemangordon_ade_: if I edit /var/cache/alarm.d/... by hand, will it work to test?
13:53.24_ade_The alarmsoundfile? You can refer to a soundfile, but it has no effect
13:53.46freemangordon_ade_: not only that, but to add additional parameters
13:54.15_ade_Never tried to manually edit that...
13:54.38freemangordonok, i'll try
13:54.58_ade_I always insert cookies
13:55.26freemangordonanyway, for now requirements are unclear, i'll ping you or post on the worldclock thread when have something for you
13:55.44_ade_thanks in advance!
14:01.29DocScrutinizer05WTF indeed, what a braindamaged concept is that behind alarms and alarmsounds?
14:03.48freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: I can't believe what that code (in its stock form) looks like
14:04.46DocScrutinizer05I looked, seen a hardcoded path in sourcecode inside instruction area (not even as a #define), threw up and closed it again
14:06.12freemangordonwell, that could be a result or REing, I am refactoring it right now
14:06.27DocScrutinizer05anyway keep in mind that alarmd cookies been broken in stock maemo iirc
14:08.43DocScrutinizer05you got a struct defining what's meant to be passed as "cookie" to alarmd during definition of an alarm, and returned by alarmd when alarm fires?
14:08.52DocScrutinizer05as of now
14:09.16DocScrutinizer05I'd gladly share my thoughts and suggestions how to augment it
14:09.35freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: this is not meant for stock Maemo, and cookie bug is fixed as for the last 2 CSSU-T releases
14:09.52DocScrutinizer05yes, I'm aware of all that
14:11.17_ade_freemangordon: what hardcoded paths are there, except gconf paths and default alarm (sound) files?
14:13.49DocScrutinizer05guys, either we stay compatible with brainfsckd 'old' original alarmclock/alarmd/systemui-alarm "API", or we define a new better one, preferably as future-proof and backwards compatible as possible
14:14.21DocScrutinizer05that's why I asked for a pointer to the struct of the 'cookie'
14:14.41freemangordon_ade_: /tmp/ACT_DEAD :D:D:D
14:14.58freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: naah, no change in API
14:15.24DocScrutinizer05aiui you already changed the API
14:15.30freemangordonAPI will remain the same, it allows waviable arguments to be passed along with alarm
14:15.36freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: no
14:15.52freemangordonwhich API?
14:16.12DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: your idea of my idea of what API includes/means is not correct
14:16.25freemangordonaah, ok
14:16.36freemangordonyou mean between worldclock/alarmUI?
14:16.39DocScrutinizer05'variable arguments' never is exactly true
14:17.04freemangordonthat could be kept bacward-=compatible, no worries
14:17.12freemangordon*backward
14:17.24DocScrutinizer05since you always have a few interfaces which have to agree upon *some* structure in those 'variable arguments'
14:17.52freemangordonthis is not the case AIUI, as parameters are passed with dbus call
14:18.08DocScrutinizer05so what?
14:18.21freemangordonand ayatemui iterates through them and calls alarmUI plugin with GArray of parameters
14:18.26freemangordon*systemui
14:18.38DocScrutinizer05either you expect those arguments in same format somewhere sometime, or they are cruft
14:18.44_ade_As long as the stock clock ignores additional arguments I see no issue
14:18.47freemangordonyes
14:19.13freemangordonactually it is not like that
14:19.24freemangordonalarmUI gets alarm event cookie
14:19.35freemangordonand calls libalarm for the other stuff
14:19.40DocScrutinizer05guys, are you suggesting "I see no issue" so nobody else may look at it?
14:20.10freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: come on, libalarm and alarmUI source code is on gitorious, libalarm API is well defined
14:20.41_ade_But the worldclock will read the cookies at startup, that's what I am talking about.
14:20.49freemangordonlibalarm API allows you to pass alarm event attribute
14:20.58freemangordon*attributes
14:21.02freemangordonNAMED
14:21.06DocScrutinizer05aha, so yes, you basically say exactly that. "we got it sorted, if you wanna know what we're talking about, go the fuck serching for stuff yourself"
14:21.34freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: what makes you think I know libalarm API so I can explain it to you?
14:21.55freemangordonwhat I know I've lerant it the last week while I was REing alarmUI
14:22.00freemangordon*learnt
14:23.44DocScrutinizer05who mentioned libalarm?
14:24.49freemangordonme
14:25.10freemangordonas that is the way worldclock and alarmUI communicate
14:26.22_ade_freemangordon: did you get the point from my last remark, or am I still missing the point?
14:26.47freemangordon_ade_: yes
14:27.04_ade_the first or last part ;-)
14:27.10freemangordonif it is for that one "_ade_> As long as the stock clock ignores additional arguments I see no issue"
14:27.40DocScrutinizer05seems you're more happy with me looking at your final work and then start bashing the flaws I might find, rather than my offer to contribute early in the process. Oh well
14:28.27freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: come on, there is still no "process" I am still cleaning up the code and finding whatever bugs I introduced during REing
14:29.25freemangordonThe "process" will start once replacement does what stock one do without the bugs
14:42.29_ade_freemangordon: is the ALARM_EVENT_BOOT flag related to alarmUI (see http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1145748&postcount=146 for an explanation of why I ask)? I do not see it in the code right away, so I guess not.
14:46.40freemangordon_ade_: seems alarm ui uses some "hidded" API reserved for systemui
14:47.37_ade_freemangordon: okay, thanks
14:47.53freemangordonjust a secon, i'll show you the code
14:49.25freemangordonhmm, seems I misunderstood your cuestion, but anyway, seems that raising the most significant bit when respondind to alarm event while in act_dead leads to boot
14:49.33freemangordon*question
14:49.36freemangordonhere https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/osso-systemui-alarm/blobs/master/osso-systemui-alarm.c#line1043
14:51.42freemangordonoh shit
14:51.44freemangordonhttps://gitorious.org/community-ssu/osso-systemui-alarm/blobs/master/osso-systemui-alarm.c#line588
14:51.58freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: you meant hardcoded like that?
14:53.26_ade_Is this address are a result of REing, and would it have been some kind of label in the original source? Sorry if it is a stupid question :-)
14:53.58freemangordon_ade_: address?
14:54.15freemangordonyou mean file path?
14:54.21_ade_well, called 0x80000000u an address
14:54.31freemangordonnoo, this is not address
14:55.03freemangordonsee here:https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/osso-systemui-alarm/blobs/master/osso-systemui-alarm.c#line166
14:57.41freemangordon_ade_: I didn't find that defined in the headers, seems like some kind of internal API flag
14:57.55freemangordonbut it is a result of REing
14:58.19_ade_okay, somewhat to complicated for me. Anyway, I will keep in mind that ALARM_EVENT_BOOT just doesn't work, and I should stick to ACT_DEAD
14:59.11freemangordonbut we can translate it like #define ALARM_EVENT_ACK_BOOT 1<<31
14:59.23freemangordonor similar, codle still needs some cleanup
14:59.27freemangordon*code
15:00.25_ade_If you could restore functionalty to what it should do, I am always in favour
15:00.49freemangordonwell, so far it seems to work as it should
15:01.04freemangordonit woke me up this morning :D:D:D
15:02.38_ade_You did read my link to TMO? That is what I am reffering to regarding ALARM_EVENT_BOOT and not working as it should.
15:03.30freemangordondid not read, just take a quick look
15:03.41freemangordonwill do now
15:04.29freemangordonyeah, got it. though those flags are unrelated to alarmUI
15:05.40_ade_okay, that's what I thought. The discussion got a whole other twist was my impression
15:06.32freemangordonyeah
15:08.54freemangordonok, going to put that in -devel

16:56.18_ade_freemangordon: about the bug report we discussed yesterday (https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12661): as far as I can see it is already linked to CSSU, with subcomponent H-D
16:56.20povbotBug 12661: Popup menu fails with X Error while switching portrait/landscape
16:58.19arcean_ade_, "First annoyance is that it flips back to landscape
16:58.19arcean(why?)" is already fixed for non-Qt based apps
16:59.03_ade_arcean: great, a first step ;-)
17:00.25_ade_arcean: just started FAPMAN, it rotates back to landscape at startup ?
17:00.56arceanthat's normal with current cssu-testing
17:01.23_ade_the fix still needs to arrive then?
17:01.44arceanyes, and I have no idea when it will be :P
17:02.31_ade_It might help me in some cases regarding my issue
17:03.04arceanQt uses its own rotation mechanism, which doesn't work well with hildon-desktop

21:13.40arceantesting + devel combo :P
21:14.28merlin1991that's fine, wanna test the new -testing? :D
21:14.52arceanwhy not :)
21:15.21freemangordonmerlin1991: those with -thumb should be able to test it too
21:15.39freemangordonafter all we fixed the versioning
21:15.46merlin1991freemangordon: but if possible I'd like to test without sideffects ;
21:16.06merlin1991hm found the first bug myself

21:42.24merlin1991oaky arcean, install http://cdnm.at/~christian/maemo/cssu/testing-testing-enabler_0.1_all.deb and then run ham :)
21:43.11merlin1991changelog can be found here (since the wiki i non editable) http://gitorious.org/community-ssu/mp-fremantle-community-pr/blobs/master/debian/changelog
21:45.01keriodafuq is that
21:45.52merlin1991kerio: hm?
21:46.02keriooh, HAM domain information
21:46.02keriomeh
21:46.18arceanok, HAM is running and melting my cpu :)
21:46.47merlin1991and pretty please don't run into "no update here" or "dependency hell" :D
21:47.18keriomerlin1991: is the priority for that repo the same as the other cssu repos?
21:47.28keriootherwise, it's going to be hell to go back for the peeps using HAM only
21:47.39kerioand yes, i said peeps
21:47.59merlin1991kerio: this is not ment for the peeps
21:48.17merlin1991but rather for like 3 people to test a release before we release it :D
21:48.49DocScrutinizer05kerio's concern is valid though
21:49.23DocScrutinizer05would it 'recover' from test by simply enabling the 'normal' repos again?
21:50.22DocScrutinizer05or would any tester have to rollback/reflash?
21:50.33merlin1991this is rollback reflash material
21:50.41DocScrutinizer05...to join community of normal mortals
21:50.56merlin1991you can "recover" your ham by simply removing the package (even inside ham)
21:50.58DocScrutinizer05ok
21:51.07merlin1991but that sill would leave the upgraded mp on your device
21:51.15DocScrutinizer05yep
21:51.36DocScrutinizer05which wouldn't update 'normally' on next CSSU release
21:51.46kerioit appears to be the same as community-devel
21:52.10merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: well mext cssu relaese would be 100% the same packages
21:52.12DocScrutinizer05I could run this on a virgin device
21:52.16keriothis, of course, ignoring the fact that it might just *not work* because HAM also does checking by gpg key and thus it could put every package in one priority basket
21:52.23merlin1991and the release after that would work as usual again
21:52.35kerios/it/the priority separation/
21:52.58merlin1991since as soon as you remove the enabler the "domain" the package comes from has no priority, thus any package from the "main" cssu repo has higher priority
21:53.14keriomerlin1991: hm, that's a good point
21:53.55merlin1991the only secnario in which you have to roll back is when shit blows up :D
21:54.02kerioDocScrutinizer05: "easy" way to fix, considering that people that will install that are "l33t", would be to enable redpill mode and disable the domain checking
21:54.05DocScrutinizer05well, anyway I could test run this on a virgin N900 only. No way to nuke my daily phone with it
21:54.11merlin1991but it shouldn't (obviously I ran it on my device already)
21:55.56DocScrutinizer05so I could either run a direct install of new testingtesting, or install recent official cssu-t then upgrade
21:56.16keriomerlin1991: why did you password the repo, btw?
21:56.17merlin19912nd
21:56.40merlin1991kerio: so that random peeps with 0 knowledge don't get in
21:57.00merlin1991since this is meant to break stuff in a limited circle where we can minimze damages
21:57.46DocScrutinizer05hmm password?
21:58.07keriokinda wants to paste the url here
21:58.22merlin1991DocScrutinizer05:  well the repo resides here: http://maemo.merlin1991.at/cssu/future/
21:58.46merlin1991it uses basic_auth which apt supports, the enabler adds user and pw to the sources.list
21:58.56DocScrutinizer05aah
21:59.11arceanmerlin1991, so far everything works ;)
21:59.12DocScrutinizer05ok then, has to wait another 2 or 3 hours
21:59.17DocScrutinizer05dinner first

22:16.02_ade_device starts up fine here after installing the latest cssu-t
22:16.45_ade_arcean: I guess the patch to prevent rotation to landscape is not included yet?
22:17.05merlin1991_ade_: should be
22:17.27arcean_ade_, no, and the patch works only with Gtk/Hildon applications ;)
22:17.45merlin1991ah arcean so that#s some new stuff?
22:18.17arceanmerlin1991, yes, a lot of fixes :P
22:18.33merlin1991yay I like h-d fixes :)
22:19.14*** join/#maemo-ssu dafox (~dafox@ip51cc571d.speed.planet.nl)
22:19.48DocScrutinizer05so are we including basically untested stuff to testing once again?
22:19.50arceanwho doesn't like :)
22:19.56merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: no
22:20.00merlin1991we are testing it ffs
22:20.53merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: personally I think the idea to run a testing-testing is there to make sure we have releases that contain 100% untested chagnes
22:21.10merlin1991</sarcasm>
22:21.20DocScrutinizer05what became of "users X, Y, Bill and Bob used it for 2 weeks, I provided it to them from my local location. It worked"
22:23.51merlin1991hm lets see, camera-ui was a trivial patch, arcean claimed the new hildon-desktop works, ke-recv was trivial and tested by me, obexd has been tested according to luf, openssl is only a packaging change to free some rootfs (move debug symbols out of the package) pulse has been tested according to luf, and the orientationlock only got a new translation
22:24.22merlin1991+ we are currently in the pre release testing phase :D
22:29.52_ade_merlin1991: my dutch status-area-orientationlock-applet translation is as expected
22:30.21DocScrutinizer05I'm definitely in not testing phase to confirm any patches included are working as supposed. If anything this testing phase is meant to confirm *your* work on packaging etc

23:05.06DocScrutinizer05the idea of testing-testing for sure wasn't to cram all new stuff bultt this morning into one rollout to get tested by 2 or 3 people who wouldn't even know what to look for. The testers each developer has to find on his own for his very project are supposed to test stuff on that level, downloaded from either devel's private website or cssu-devel. Then if developer has positive feedback from those testers who know what to look for,
23:05.07DocScrutinizer05so he's able to convince others that there 99.99% certainty are no obvious bugs anymore. We integrate it into testing-testing and check this "distro" for bugs introduced by integration. That's what the 1...2 days test phase of testing-testing is meant for. Those testers have no idea what are the details in each new patch included that need special attention, nor may they even have an idea what got included at all. They just test the
23:05.09DocScrutinizer05larger UX on upgrade/installation
23:12.08merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: stop trolling and read my line about all the patches that went in
23:13.04DocScrutinizer05if you think that's trolling then I understand why you suggest to read your damn line again instead of noticing the differences between what you stated there and what I suggested in my trolling
23:14.12merlin1991" Then if developer has positive feedback from those testers who know what to look for"
23:14.22DocScrutinizer05>>arcean claimed the new hildon-desktop works<< vs >>if developer has positive feedback from those testers who know what to look for, so he's able to convince others that there 99.99% certainty are no obvious bugs anymore<<
23:14.27merlin1991Well our "developers" did have that "positive feedback"
23:14.51merlin1991you can translate arcean claimed it works as arcean said it was tested
23:15.26DocScrutinizer05I'd translate that as "it did build and didn't segfault when I started it 5 min ago"
23:16.17DocScrutinizer05I didn't hear anything that makes me think anything different
23:17.38DocScrutinizer05otherwise I'd have missed on some users discussing that feedback with him here
23:17.57DocScrutinizer05or him stating how many testers tested it and for what duration
23:18.18DocScrutinizer05arcean: no offense
23:19.01DocScrutinizer05I'm just missing the explicit polling about status of the packages
23:20.54arceanDocScrutinizer05, the h-d from testing-testing is 1 month old
23:21.23DocScrutinizer05obviously the amount of testing done to a patch prior to including it into cssu-testing(-testing) has to be negotiated each time again, but it has to be some agreement about maturity of a patch
23:21.34DocScrutinizer05arcean: good enough for me
23:21.50DocScrutinizer05that's all I missed
23:21.52DocScrutinizer05:-)
23:22.00DocScrutinizer05for each package though
