inkylet me just say that i am on the road now, and i decided to not take my framework laptop with me.00:51
inkyi took droid4 and motorola lapdock.00:52
inkyand it is very lightweight, the lapdock, and maemo is very useful with it.00:52
inkyand everything is very beautiful.00:52
inkyand mstardict which i revived and built for modern maemo, opens on this weak device much faster than sidudict on xperia xa2 under sailfish. with same dictionaries.00:53
inkymuch much much faster.00:54
inkymaemo leste is just incredible.00:54
inkyi have some more things to package, just need some free mind for it.00:54
uvosinky: d4+lapdock and lxqt is also a supriseingly decent arm laptop with endless battery life00:55
uvosstill a bit on the slow side but openbox is quite a bit faster than hildon00:56
inkyyes, i sometimes use windowmaker, what i use on every other laptop.00:56
inkyi use windowmaker when i want to program, and see 2-3 terminals at once.00:56
inkywhat is impossible with hildon.00:56
Wizzupinky: do you mirror the screen to it?10:43
WizzupI also have one here but found it a bit finicky sometimes to do with xrandr10:44
Wizzupso would like to hear how you do it (nad pls add it to the wiki)10:44
Wizzupuvos: does hotspot work again?18:21
Wizzupit works now for me18:21
Wizzupon 6.1.7618:23
Wizzupusing 2:2.10-8~bpo11+218:24
Wizzuphostapd18:24
Wizzupok, so it's the backports that fixes it in all likelyhood18:26
Wizzupwe should build that I guess18:28
WizzupI will build it for -devel18:32
Wizzupuvos: if you can, please confirm that it doesn't work with the non-backports version18:49
Wizzupuvos: hm, or maybe it's kernel related, it doesn't work on our 6.619:18
Wizzupuvos: I tried to rebase on latest 6.6.x, will see if it works21:21
arno11hotspot working ? nice21:26
Wizzupwell it used to work on d4 with a simple script21:26
Wizzupon n900 it is more complicated21:26
arno11ok21:26
Wizzupsince the hw cannot do host mode, you need some other mode21:26

Guest48hello, wanted to give leste a shot, had cyenogenmod previously on my droid with safestrap, now reflashed with recommended android and flashed kexecboot, but I do not see kexecboot, the phone just boots straight to android. I reflashed the device with different versions of kexecboot, but it still seems to just boot to android. Am I missing21:29
Guest48something?21:29
Wizzupdroid being droid4?21:30
Guest48the device is droid421:30
Wizzupok21:30
Wizzuphttps://leste.maemo.org/Motorola_Droid_421:30
Wizzupso you followed the steps there?21:30
Wizzupand none of the steps gave an error?21:31
Guest48yes. that steps, they were OK. Once I forgot reboot to bootloader it returned that the flashing failed as the device was protected, so it seems like the "flash mbm" step actually does the job21:33
Wizzupok, so is that enough for you to be able to continue?21:34
Guest48I found in the channel history that someone back in 2022 also did not see kexecboot after installation but he just redid the steps and it helped, I flashed it now several time to no success21:35
Guest48all the steps were succesful, and the device no longer has safstrap + cynaogenmod but verizon android and no safestrap it just does not show kexecboot, unless I need to somehow activate kexecboot, tried to boot with buttons down, keyboard open, but it boots straight to android. Should kexecboot show something during boot?21:38
WizzupI will be right back.21:39
WizzupDid you run the flash-droid-4-fw.sh script?21:39
Guest48maybe I should try with other sdcard? I use toshiba 8gb card21:40
Guest48yes, with this script I installed the android over previous safestrap+cyanogenmod system21:41
Wizzupok21:43
WizzupI would honestly just retry both steps - the android install and then kexecboot21:43
WizzupI don't think you need a sd card in there to see kexecboot21:44
Guest48will try that, after installing android, should I erase user data and cache?21:45
WizzupI think the script will do that if it is necessary21:45
siceloarno11: N900's wl1251 can't do AP mode. you can do adhoc mode, but iirc Android phones can't connect in adhoc mode21:56
arno11ah ok21:58
Wizzuptmlind: to me it seems like the main difference between 6.1 and 6.6 seems to be the additional n_gsm.c patches21:59
Wizzup(which could perhaps cause no audio in calls)21:59
Guest48thanks for your hints, after reflashing it two more times, I returned to basics and found out that kexecboot image was broken, after redownloading it I can see the boot menu. Thanks!22:34
Wizzupha, check :)22:35
