00:10.49Dr_Drachehey guys
00:11.40Dr_Drachewhere can i get the preware 1.8.3 ipk?
00:12.50rwhitbyin the old testing feed and the new beta feed
00:13.29Dr_Dracheright
00:13.39Dr_Drachebut following the directions///
00:13.47Dr_Dracheyour supposed to remove it.
00:13.51Dr_Drachethen install the new one.
00:14.07Dr_Drachei must have missed the part where you GET the new one
00:14.13rwhitbyDr_Drache: where do the instructions say to remove the old feeds?
00:14.31Dr_DracheTo enable the beta testing feeds, you must do the following:
00:14.32Dr_Drache1. Uninstall Preware. Yes, seriously. You must uninstall Preware.
00:14.45Dr_Drachethen
00:14.45Dr_Drache3. Install Preware 1.8.3 or later.
00:15.06rwhitbyyep, install any Preware then update
00:15.19rwhitbyyour old testing feeds should still be in place until you update
00:15.36rwhitbyonce the beta testing of the transition is complete, 1.8.3 will be in the public feeds
00:16.27Dr_Drache.....ok makes no sense. but got it
00:23.01tmztrwhitby: are these catalog breaks real?

00:56.13infobotThis is IRC. Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question and if someone's around, they'll be glad to help.
00:56.17Tibfib_~ask
00:56.17infobotQuestions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise, and on-topic.  Don't ask if you can ask a question first.  Don't ask if a person is there; just ask what you intended to ask them.  Better questions more frequently yield better answers.  We are all here voluntarily or against our will.
00:56.26Tibfib_Hmm, neither fit perfectly
00:56.37Tibfib_the second is a little more appropriate.

01:38.20jtrucksI tried the new preware testing feed approach with 1.8.3. I followed instructions: remove preware, touch the beta feed file, insteall preware (I downloaded the ipk and used webosqi to load 1.8.3)then enabled the feeds and even restarted. Now I see no available packages at all. Am I missing something?
01:39.28rwhitbyjtrucks: did you update feeds?
01:39.54rwhitbyjtrucks: and do you have a working network connection?
01:41.55Loudergoodhmm...the instructions on the Testing_Feeds article conflict with the license do they not?
01:42.16jtrucksrwhitby: yes, I updated feeds and the network definately is working.
01:42.17rwhitbyLoudergood: serious question or being a smartass?

01:42.38Loudergoodno, it's a serious question.
01:43.25rwhitbyLoudergood: tell me how to change the mediawiki license footer on a per-page basis and i'll fix it
01:43.37Loudergoodunderstandable
01:43.45jtrucksso, here's the strange thing. I had to walk away fron the tablet for a couple hours, and I just reopened preware and this time it updated the feeds. 'll blame it on network glitch and apologize for taking time in here.
01:44.00rwhitbyjtrucks: no worries. everything else working?
01:44.39rwhitbyLoudergood: and if anyone seriously does take issue with the conditions on that page, we'll just close the testing feeds altogether :)
01:44.42jtrucksrwhitby: it seems to be so far.

01:47.36jtrucksdoes the *.23 version of the Muffle System Logging patch fix the cache file problem?
01:47.58jtrucksif so, can  just update a (.22 system to the .23 and not worry about it breaking?
01:51.36jtrucksrwhitby: if I want to enable the alpha feeds, do I touch the file and re-install preware or is there a way to do that without a full reinstall of preware?
01:56.46rwhitbyjtrucks: should have touched it first before reinstalling :)  And your question is answered in the Q&A section.
01:57.20rwhitbyjtrucks: the .23 version does not cause the cache file problem.  use EFW to fix the problem if you already have it.
01:59.36jtrucksrwhitby:  I know I should have touched it first...  I was troubleshooting earlier to figure out why it wouldn't update and removed both files and just did the beta one for testing.. oh well.
01:59.56jtrucksI wrote a script to fix the cache stuff I just run when  have a problem.
02:00.31rwhitbyjtrucks: why are you using the alpha feeds?
02:01.29jtrucksrwhitby: I don't know what is in them, and I don't mind pushing the envelope, so I want to see my options :)
02:01.42jtrucksthe beta feeds have very little (that I don't already have installed)
02:02.43jtrucksthis is my primary computer outside work.
02:02.54jtrucksso I want to push it and see what I can get it to do :)
02:03.17jtrucksI wish I wasn't a horrid or useless programmer, or I'd help with the code.

02:41.46jtrucksoh. this is a nice application.

02:49.42jtruckshas an idea and goes to check stuff
02:51.14jtrucksnope. I was wrong.

02:58.22drobbinsany way to fix it?
02:58.30drobbinsor undo the damage so I don't need to restart it
02:58.46drobbinsoh, ctrl-shift-{ fixed it
02:58.50drobbinsyay
03:07.49jtrucksyeah, so need to use shift with ctrl key on occasion it seems.
03:07.56jtruckshow odd.. but I'll take a workaround for now :)

05:39.20Jack87where are all these people getting their hands on the white tp from?
05:39.32tmztdoes precomd work at all?
05:39.33Jack87i wish there was a 64gig black.
05:39.43tmztis there a client
05:39.58RagingMindJack87, I heard of someone ordering one right at the time the big cancellation happened and it actually got delivered
05:40.34Jack87RagingMind, any idea of what the discounted price for it was?
05:40.53Xuzzdoes anyone want an AZERTY pre3 for $350 (incl. shipping)? think i might have found a way to get a QWERTY one but want to see if i can sell the AZERTY one on its way to me first :\
05:41.33Jack87do all white ones have a 3g/4g radio?
05:41.50RagingMindJack87, they may have ordered it before the news broke so it was probably full price, I didn't follow up to see if there was ever a discount
05:42.32Jack87what was the price anyway? $600?
05:42.32RagingMindI want a pre3 super bad... but it'll have to wait till I'm less poor
05:44.26Jack87RagingMind, im in the same boat
05:44.53Jack87also... i cant really use it as a phone as i am not willing to leave sprint. as much as i love webos.. ill live with a pre2 for now
05:45.16RagingMindI really couldn't afford the TP even at $99, but I'm kinda sorta making that work...
05:45.46Jack87RagingMind, sucks being poor. oneday i strive to be rich :)
05:46.37RagingMindwith the recent changes to Verizon stores (the lack of the reps ability to really help me with anything other than purchasing a phone) and lack of a good webOS upgrade option... I have a feeling come April I"ll be switching to ATT
05:47.25RagingMindthey couldn't even switch my BF's phone! they pointed me to the kiosk in the corner and asked if I knew the password to my online account
05:48.42Jack87so... i think touch to share works via the hardware telling it to send the data via bt
05:49.00Jack87the hardware in the devices that support tts is only a triger the rest done via bluetooth
05:49.08Jack87at least that is what im thinking
05:49.10RagingMindI know you have to have the same palm account on both devices
05:49.31Jack87RagingMind, nah you dont... i have two different palm accounts on two different touchpads and they tts
05:49.34RagingMindwell... does touch to share work without bluetooth pairing?
05:49.47Jack87RagingMind, nope it requires bluetooth pairing
05:49.59RagingMindbetween touchpads too?
05:50.01Jack87and it trigers you to turn bluetooth on on the devices than they get instantly paired
05:50.09Jack87yup
05:50.12Jack87so.....
05:50.16Jack87i was thinking... lol
05:50.22RagingMindwe tried between my TP and my BF's and nothing ever happened
05:50.43Jack87there has to be a way to manually trigger the "reciving" device and the "sending" device.. actually they recive/send at same time
05:51.05RagingMinddoes it matter if one is in card mode?
05:51.13*** join/#webos-internals Lazar_Dobrescu (~Lazar@modemcable203.243-177-173.mc.videotron.ca)
05:51.34Jack87like i had a browser open in each... when i touched the two touchpads together a new card opened in each one with the subsequent browser's website
05:52.06Jack87so there has to be some way to manually triger touch to share.. and it be sweet to throw it into the system menu drop down list
05:52.18Jack87RagingMind, no as long as one of them has an active card
05:52.29Jack87even if it doesnt do anything it will show you the ripple effect
05:52.45Jack87so maybe you just didnt quit align the two TPs right
05:54.38Jack87ka6sox, ^ i am kind of talking out of my ass "in theory" but what do you think... sound maybe doable?
05:54.40RagingMindyou're right... all I had to do was turn on BT on his TP and poof! it works
05:54.50Jack87RagingMind, kind of cool huh
05:55.19RagingMindthat'll make things a lot easier... we kept having to sign on to IM to share links
05:55.33Jack87lol
05:55.38ka6soxfun stuff
05:55.43Jack87im glad to see it being utilized
05:56.25Jack87ka6sox, ya do you think it would be possible to triger the touch to share request without the coil? seems like all the data is transfered via BT has nothing to do with the coil.
05:56.43Jack87coil just triggers it? (thats me just speculating i dont know for a fact but thats what it seems like to me
05:57.14Jack87but if it can be manually tirggered it also means you dont need to physically touch the devices together either
05:57.28ka6soxif the hardware isn't there...it isn't going to happen.
05:58.17Jack87ka6sox, are you sure? it seems like it only uses BT... the hardware (coil for tts) just seems to be a tirgger mechenism
05:58.55ka6soxso you are saying "manually trigger
05:58.58ka6soxinteresting
05:58.59RagingMindwhich kinda makes sense.  why design a coil to transmit info when you already have ways to do that?
05:59.06Jack87ka6sox, exactly.
05:59.25*** part/#webos-internals lemketron (~lemketron@24.130.8.148)
05:59.27RagingMindinstead the coil would just do something that bluetooth can't to reliably... detect very close proximity
05:59.32Jack87RagingMind, yup... and as you can see the info is all being transmited via bluetooth
05:59.37ka6soxJack87, you would have to find the trigger
06:00.21Jack87ka6sox, hehe yes. i need to find someone who is willing to help me because i have no idea what i would be doing. but i can just imagine adding a system menu option to triger tts
06:00.32Jack87ya know.. as a patch
06:01.07RagingMindthen sharing links across the living room... no need to get up :)
06:01.18Jack87RagingMind, hehe yup!
06:01.23Jack87also sharing via pre2
06:01.43RagingMindonly if you get a version of webos that supports it running reliably on a pre2
06:03.23Jack87RagingMind, yes.. they did promise for future webos updates for pre2 so im keeping my fingers crossed
06:05.42rwhitby-tpcoil transmits authentication info to allow bluetooth connection
06:13.48Jack87rwhitby-tp, can we manually do that?
06:14.08Jack87once the devices are manually paired... wouldnt it be all set/
06:14.51rwhitby-tppossibly. watch ls-monitor during a tts event and try to replicate it with luna-send
06:15.59Jack87^ like i said i dont have the experties to do this my self. ill need someone to point me on how to use ls-monitor
06:16.36ka6soxls-monitor  | grep for the thing you want
06:16.49Jack87rwhitby-tp, seriusly it all seems like everything is done via software. all the coil does is triger the events that take place (all speculation from my observation) so if we can replicate whatever "triger" the coil uses we should be golden
06:17.27ka6soxif its the BT id info of the opposite unit then it could get challenging
06:18.00Jack87ka6sox, but you can always manually pair the other unit (my pre2 is already paired with touchpad)
06:18.50Jack87ka6sox, TTS reduces the work it takes into pairing. it pops open the BT menue for you :)...
06:19.09ka6soxkk
06:19.10Jack87ahh shit my other TP is in the car. whcih is too far to go get
06:19.25Jack87i was about to grep
06:19.51ka6soxokay, tommorrow
06:20.00Jack87uh huh!
06:20.18Jack87haha i better get to homework. i just wanted to dump my thoughts out here
06:20.42Jack87sometimes shit gets lost in my mind in the deep corners

22:41.05jamesb2147_rwhitby: we talking about the same thing?  skimming that link i don't see anything immediately relevant to installing an app in the root on a 2.1.0 device... :(  do i just need to keep reading?

22:42.50RagingMindjamesb2147_, what kind of app? this something you already have building and packaged?
22:43.30jamesb2147_alright, i don't want to get anyone upset, but i'm trying to get minidm up and working. /me runs for cover

22:54.39Davide-NYCDoes anyone have any idea if that rumor of 50k ATT Pre3s is legitimate?
22:55.24Davide-NYCWe're seeing some ATT compatible Pre3s appearing on eBay at over $600. A bit steep for me but I really want one.

23:10.56tmztgeist: you around? we found another weird thing in bootie, dfu mode
23:14.14*** join/#webos-internals Lazar_Dobrescu (~Lazar@modemcable203.243-177-173.mc.videotron.ca)
23:16.35geisthmm, what is it?
23:16.45geisti doubt i know, dfu on msm cpus is different
23:18.59tmzthttp://pastebin.com/MyWHf4Wc
23:19.26geistoh, that's just DFU
23:19.36tmztwe're in #msm-bootloader working on a lk-based bootloader
23:19.37geistthat's a standard protocol, you should be able to find any number of dfu loaders on the net
23:19.44tmztit's not working
23:19.51tmztthe dfutool from openembedded
23:20.05geistyeah, we used to use that inside, though i had just added dfu support to cpuboot
23:20.28tmztjcsullins: you here?
23:20.41jcsullinsyeah
23:20.45tmztin the opensource.palm.com version?
23:20.52rwhitbygeist: apart from draining the battery, was there another way to reset the device from dfu mode without writing anything?
23:20.54geistwell, i dont think it supported the full set of dfu, but just the simple jam it down and go
23:21.05geistrwhitby: 100% device specific
23:21.12geisti have no idea anything post pixie
23:21.20rwhitbygeist: thx
23:21.22tmztram or flash?
23:21.25*** join/#webos-internals mpingu (~pingu@p4FEF47A4.dip.t-dialin.net)
23:21.33geistif they didn't put in a reset, then that was just stupid
23:21.44geisttry pushing all the buttons
23:22.04rwhitbygeist: on the pixie, did DFU write to flash or RAM ?
23:22.11geistram 100%
23:22.27geistdfu mode was just a very simple loader, could squirts tuff into ram and go
23:22.28tmztis it still imem at this stage
23:22.30tmztearly appsboot
23:22.38geistbasically the idea was OMAP had a built in rom that you could break into
23:22.38rwhitbygeist: so should be able to DFU a bootie to recover something?
23:22.48geistyep, that's the idea
23:23.00geistsince OMAP had a built in rom that let you squirt stuff into ram and go, and msm didn't
23:23.05jcsullinsI think the code providing the DFU is bootie, btw...
23:23.16geistjcsullins: yes i know, i wrote it
23:23.29jcsullinsoh, ok. you'd know then... :-)
23:23.40geistdfubootie was just another build variant of bootie, only had enough code to either load the next stage (real bootie) or go into dfu if it couldn't
23:23.59geistwas only needed on msm cpus since they had no fall back rom based dfu mode like OMAP did
23:24.00tmztso it woulnd't be on emmc?
23:24.08geistagain, depends on the device
23:24.15geiston pixie it was sitting on the modem's flash
23:24.23rwhitbygeist: what was the magic key sequence to put pixie into DFU ?
23:24.41geistwas chainbooted by the modem cpu into the arm11s cpu, then dfuboot bootie would load the real bootloader off of mmc
23:24.44tmztapq it's got to be with the a6/q6 stuff then
23:25.09geistrwhitby: geez, probably button + some volup/down thing
23:25.26geistwait, no buttons on pixie... guess it was a power + volume up/down thing?
23:25.54geistthat might be a good test of your dfu code. if you can break into a pixie and dfu boot a known working pixie bootie
23:27.16ghostinatorNew kernel benchmarks are about to go live, looks like unix did some nice optimizations on his code since build 42, compared to build 61. ill post a link in a min

23:39.20ghostinatori made sure to link to testing.preware.org just for rwhitby :
23:39.22ghostinator:P
23:40.32rwhitbyghostinator: since the web-a-thon is over, perhaps replace that link with http://donate.webos-internals.org/
23:40.49rhcp[linux]crazy diff @ 1.8
23:41.27ghostinatorI just took it out, i was just about to ask ya for that
23:42.27ghostinatoradded :D
23:43.04ghostinatorI wish i wasn't broke, i'd donate but until then i'll keep doing this stuff and working on guides for the wiki, etc
23:44.09rwhitbyghostinator: what you are doing is much more valuable than cash, thanks.
23:44.44ghostinatorOnly if i knew what i needed to have setup to compile kernels, then i'd help codecrumb out

23:50.51tmztjcsullins: what if we assume it has the same load address as bootie?
23:51.12tmzt(the bootie we know)
23:51.17jcsullinsperhaps...
23:51.24ghostinatorrwhitby: I'd still like the details about various tweaks in whatever kernels you know, if you could email them to me?
23:51.26jcsullinswhich is?
23:51.38ghostinatorI Want to create a chart of kernel comparisons for the touchpad
23:51.50tmzthmm
23:52.03jcsullinsI'm gonna try a couple of things...
23:52.03tmztthat's a good question:)
23:52.52ghostinatorwhat was that link again?
23:53.02ghostinatornvm i found it
23:53.04tmztwhen we do get this figured out wel'll document it on github.com/tmzt/msmb/wiki and webos wiki for touchpad recovery, but I don't think people are going to get in here other than intentionally writing to imem
