Wizzupfreemangordon: not sure @ image builds01:55
davidhamnerI'd love to do a deep dive and cover Maemo Leste on my Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@davidhamner.  Are there any devices that are anywhere close to daily driveable? I have a N810, N900, N9, Pinephone OG, and a Librem 5 I can flash on.04:38
donihalimHi05:11
gnarfacedavidhamner: stick around, slow channel05:15
sicelodavidhamner: from your list, Pinephone OG & N900 I guess07:15
siceloLibrem 5 port still in progress (blame me)07:15
freemangordonbut better find d407:15
siceloN9 port is stalled a little07:16
donihalimHi, does deleting message on the conv app doesnt work?12:37
WizzupI think it should work, how are you deleting it?12:49
donihalimopen the message and select delete chat from the menu12:50
donihalimit seems only clearing the chat12:53
donihalimsms got deleted but matrix and irc are still there12:55
donihalimim already deleting both accounts12:55
Wizzupdsc_: ^ ?13:00
dsc_donihalim: ill have an answer later13:07
dsc_currently fixing some other stuff @ conversations13:07
donihalimThanks Wizzup and dsc_13:09
sicelolux values from ALS on N900 seem pretty accurate when the sensor is provided with calibration data from CAL14:12
siceloI'll try to MR the required stuff soon.14:13
kivasicelo: Do you think that N900 can work as lux meter?15:34
davidhamnersicelo: I'll give it a go on my N900. I also noticed the matrix bridge is down, I get a spinning circle when connecting to the room "#maemo-leste:libera.chat"15:34
arno11davidhamner: note that we actually don't have n900 image working well OOTB15:37
sicelokiva: probably not *that* accurate. i think there's a photolightmeter application in extras btw15:38
donihalimarno11: its 20240825 img that work for me15:40
davidhamnerarno11: What device has the best OOTB with a flash experience?15:41
davidhamnersicelo: I have a spare L5, if you'd like some help getting it up and running.15:42
arno11davidhamner: OOTB probably droid 4 and pinephone15:44
arno11n900 can returns good results but with a bit of work after install15:45
arno11donihalim: ok15:47
kivadavidhamner: Pinephone is easiest, but to show the power of Maemo over another phone OSs it need Pinephone keyboard.15:48
sicelodavidhamner: i do have L5 too. i'm kinda waiting for daedalus to go live, since the L5 needs newer Xorg15:53
davidhamnerarno11: I'm still leaning towards the N900 as I'm rather fond of that device from the old days. The droid 4 seems like it might have network issues on T-mobile in the US. But I don't really expect much better from the N900 as both are rather old.15:54
siceloyou're in US?15:54
siceloshould be easy to get D4 then15:54
kivaD4 is usefull with Maemo even without network...you can transfer .deb packages into it with USB-stick.15:58
kivaand it's microHDMI output works better with Maemo than in any OS (including original OS).16:03
arno11davidhamner: ok i see16:04
kivadavidhamner: try that 20240825.img with N900, it is not latest but at least knowing to work.16:08
arno11hmm...yeah but not OOTB16:09
arno11and need absolutely -devel upgrade16:09
arno11anyway better to wait a good daedalus img16:10
davidhamnersicelo: 3G went away about 2 years ago for me, and with it support for most of my older devices. I'm hoping to make a video about daily driving maemo in 2025, mobile network is not a deal breaker for the video. Tho I'd love a device I can keep daily driving after.16:10
davidhamnerI'm out of the loop, what is needed for daedalus to go live?16:11
kivadavidhamner: there is coming big next step for Maemo..so maybe it is better wait.16:13
davidhamnerarno11: I don't really need it to work OOTB, just as long as it won't take me a week to get running. I have to be careful not to speed 3 week on a project to make a single video. :)16:16
arno11ok :)16:16
kivaI takes under 10 minutes to get Pinephone to desktop (even not so fast internet connection for download and not so fast sd-card reader dd and push power button)16:23
kiva(and no rush to put sd-card in Pinephone, I think I broke one Pinephone modem when I accidentally put in SIM-slot, even without powering on)16:31
siceloyeah, common mistake with PP16:32
siceloL5 has its own SIM/SD-slot quirk - don't ever eject them while system is powered16:32
Wizzupdavidhamner: re: daedalus, a few full days of the devs attention :)16:34
WizzupI'm already using it daily, but we need to fix some image build issue and then a few pkgs16:35
Wizzupthat's it mostly16:35
Wizzupand make a news post :)16:35
kivaSicelo: It should be like with Nokia N810. memory card accessible from outside :)16:35
arno11Wizzup: yeah :)16:39
sicelokiva: was it the N810, or N800 that can take 2 or 3 memory cards?16:40
kivaN800 takes 2 memory cards.16:40
kivafilemanager and can access usb-sticks with right cable and you can charge with old fashion Nokia charger same time..it can be pocket fileserver ;)16:44
arno11Wizzup: btw for daedalus, i built (locally) picodrive with 'mainline' notaz last stuff and used sdl-gles to configure it. it mostly solves issues i experienced. still a bit of work (and time i don't have) but should be ok soon16:47
arno11(so pico, pcsx and drnoksnes should be ok)16:49
donihalimarno11: have you tried harvestmoon btn on pcsx? is it playable?16:50
sicelokiva: i still would like to make OTG work on N900 with Leste. on Fremantle it could also charge while supplying power to usb sticks, etc.16:53
arno11donihalim: i didn't try it but should work fine16:54
donihalimok16:54
arno11in fact most games work full speed16:54
arno11depending of bios and settings mostly16:56
Wizzuparno11: great :)16:59
Wizzuparno11: I'm finally with more time now :)17:00
kivasicelo: It is not important is that real OTG..because N900 has 200mA current limit anyway, It would be fine if it works at least as it works with H-E-N. If you really needed, it worked.17:00
arno11Wizzup: ok cool :) i will try to help you with daedalus. just ping me if needed17:02
kivasicelo: and remember test usb-stick with Fremantle first, because I remember N900 was very picky what stick works and what not..I remember that I had two Kingston sticks that looks like same, but had one letter different in model number, one worked another not and but was under current limit.17:06
sicelocan always provide external power. that worked too. i think i still have my custom  made y-cable :p17:10
kivaall my uses was that usb-cable that came with N900. I just added usb-a gender changer.17:12
kivaso no extra power..but also some (not all) mices, keyboards worked too.17:15
siceloI even did console to Cisco routers with the N900, which always raised eyebrows17:17
kivabut that I remember with mices that all old usb-mices with ball worked..some led mouses work some not.17:18
kivaI dreamed wired video calls with usb-ethenet :) , but I newer really try harder to make it work.17:22
inkyi am trying to make that maemo update on pinephone, and i get: Unable to update 'Maemo Leste'.19:05
inkyConflict with application packages: hildon-base (1.6+m7.1)19:05
inkytried also apt-get update; apt-get upgrade19:05
inkyand then again this message.19:06
dsc_how to fix this one: https://plak.infrapuin.nl/selif/wegwegweg.txt (clean VM, deb https://maedevu.maemo.org/leste chimaera-devel main contrib non-free in apt/sources)20:14
dsc_Wizzup: ^20:28
Wizzupthis is chimaera?21:10
Wizzupdsc_: this should be fixed once and for all after this21:12
Wizzupbut I think you run dpkg --configure --force-all gconf221:12
Wizzupor dpkg-reconfigure --force-all gconf221:12
inkywhat about 'Conflict with application packages: hildon-base (1.6+m7.1)' when doing HAM update of that maemo package?21:14
inkyand when doing dist-upgrade: E: This installation run will require temporarily removing the essential package hildon-base:arm64 due to a Conflicts/Pre-Depends loop. This is often bad, but if you really want to do it, activate the APT::Force-LoopBreak option.21:14
inkyE: Reverse conflicts early remove for package 'elogind:arm64' failed21:14
Wizzupinky: what kind of system is this?21:19
dsc_Wizzup: ah21:36
dsc_ty21:37
inkypinephone. maemo, chimaera. has devel enabled.21:59
Wizzupok, so no other repos, like daedalus22:00
Wizzupand you get this when you run 'apt update; apt dist-upgrade'22:01
Wizzupplease share the whole output if you can22:01
freemangordonI made some experiments with hildon-meta, it is still not ready, obviously23:05
freemangordondo not enable -devel unless you know what you do23:05
