xinomilohey all! installed maemo leste on pinephone (emmc) , dist-upgraded to daedalus (all seem good so far), and i'd like to use ecryptfs (or gocryptfs) to encrypt /home since fde/luks isn't available on installer image... so i want to ask if password login is supported in maemo leste boot/lockscreen?  any howto/docs about it? (couldn't find out any...)08:58
xinomilothx in advance :)08:59
xinomilo( btw, maemoleste feels much more responsive than other distros on this phone.. very nice! )09:01
gnarfacexinomilo: stick around, slow channel but someone knows09:36
uvos__unfortionatly no we dont have pw or code lock working atm. Since we are x11, you can use any x11 lockscreen, i3lock for instance works well, but only on devices with a hwkbd10:01
siceloxinomilo: nice to hear PP is working well with daedalus10:15
Wizzupyes, we just need that darn uboot thing fixed :)10:17
xinomilodist-upgraded yesterday, so maybe too early to tell... + no sim yet.10:17
xinomiloapp manager, settings, wifi+wireguard,  seem to work fine so far.10:20
Wizzupregarding fde, we need to add some initramfs that can do this, so right now it'll be a pain to add this manually10:21
Wizzupwe don't actually have an initramfs for most devices10:21
xinomiloyes, i've read the issue on bugtracker.10:22
Wizzupbtw this is the pine64 uboot failure https://phoenix.maemo.org/job/pine64-uboot-binaries/default/35/consoleFull10:22
Wizzupso we need to upgrade to a newer version of the pine64 uboot, and maybe that's all we need10:22
siceloLibrem5 will also need uboot :-/10:28
WizzupI don't think it will be such a problem for librem5, in general it's not10:30
WizzupI can try to upgrade this later, since it's one of the last daedalus things I guess?10:30
Wizzuptried to yolo it, let's see10:36
dsc_came across https://github.com/tdlight-team/tdlight11:12
dsc_> made for bots that focuses on memory footprint and performance11:13
xinomiloconcerning password-login in lockscreen/boot, is there a way?11:27
siceloxinomilo: while you were gone, this was sent:11:33
sicelo10:01 < uvos__> unfortionatly no we dont have pw or code lock working atm. Since we are x11, you can use any x11 lockscreen, i3lock for instance works well, but only on devices with a hwkbd11:33
xinomilosicelo, thanks! connection is unstable today, and missed it..11:33
uvos__to use a different lockscreen you need to disable the maemo slide to unlock lockscreen11:38
uvos__you can do this by editing your /etc/mce/mce.ini.d/99-user.ini to look like mine11:38
uvos__https://uvos.xyz/maserati/99-user.ini11:39
uvos__then you can use i3lock or xscreensaver or whatever11:39
xinomilodon't have a hwkbd , so will have to think about it..11:40
xinomilouvos__ , thx!11:40
uvos__without hwkbd its going to be hard11:40
uvos__maybe you can write a simple lockscreen with a keypad or soemthing11:41
uvos__or maybe you can find one11:41
Wizzupok so the problem with pine64 u-boot is that we're apparently pulling in some musl based cross compiler that doesn't support lto11:45
Wizzupbtw maemo -does- have a lock screen with digits11:45
WizzupI don't know what is necessary to make it work but all the code  should be in place11:45
sicelowhat is it?11:46
Wizzupfremantle has a screen lock does it not?11:47
Wizzupwe should have the same11:47
Wizzupunless I misremember11:48
sicelofreemangordon: Wizzup: btw, the blinky wlan icon issue does happen on the Droid 4 as well11:48
siceloafaik we only have the slider 'lock' :-)11:48
Wizzupok11:48
Wizzupok, I'll pin a lower atf that doesn't use lto and we should be ok11:49
Wizzupfor pine64-uboot11:50
Wizzupdo we want to switch to upstream u-boot as well?11:50
Wizzupwhy not :)12:07
Wizzupwell once daedalus is done we can to go excalibur ;)12:27
dsc_arno11: I fixed the 1970 timestamp thing (it was only a visual bug)12:29
dsc_but I cannot reproduce these 2: https://git.maemo.org/leste/bugtracker/issues/77712:29
dsc_let me try and start a new chat12:32
dsc_at least existing chats seem to work for me12:32
dsc_hmm cant send from addressbook "internet connection required" error12:40
dsc_ill build a new release for the 1970 fix at least12:43
Wizzupso what else should we fix in daedalus before we release? I guess there are the audio issues for n900 calls / pa crashes on d412:48
arno11dsc_: ty @time stamp12:52
arno11@#777 maybe it happens only with conv_slim ? i'll doublecheck12:52
arno11Wizzup: no audio troubles if ringtone is ogg or wav AFAIK12:53
arno11*on n90012:53
dsc_arno11: very unlikely12:53
dsc_I also test with -slim btw12:53
arno11ok12:53
arno11ok12:53
Wizzuparno11: that is the only change? no sphone changes required?12:54
arno11no sphone changes, yeah12:55
Wizzupok12:55
Wizzupit feels racy to me that just using a different audio format is enough12:55
Wizzupany other blockers from your pov?12:56
Wizzupwe have a pkg for maemo-ringtones, so we can convert the files12:56
Wizzupwhat shall we make it, ogg?12:57
Wizzupopus?12:57
arno11yep ogg seems a good choice imo12:57
arno11no real other blockers, excepting swap12:57
Wizzupargh, yeah, the swap12:58
Wizzupok, let's fix that too12:58
arno11we still carry some issues from chimaera but nothing really critical imo12:58
arno11ok @swap12:59
arno11swap on separate partition seems better12:59
arno11at least it has a significative impact in daedalus13:00
arno11noatime as well13:01
Wizzupbuilding new ringtones13:06
arno11cool13:06
WizzupI made a daedalus release milestone: https://git.maemo.org/leste/bugtracker/milestone/3613:06
Wizzupany blocking issues please attach them to this one13:07
arno11ok13:07
Wizzuphttps://git.maemo.org/leste/bugtracker/issues/774 did it for this one13:07
arno11dsc_: @#777, able to reproduce 100% of time. seems conversations fails to report online status btw. works fine in addressbook13:12
uvos__maemo codelock needs the n900 speicifc storage partition to work13:15
uvos__it also only supports numeric lock not pw afaik13:15
Wizzupyes, that's right, numeric lock13:15
uvos__so we dont really have a general purpose secure lockscreen13:15
Wizzupand the codelock we can fix of course eventually with some other backing file in libcal13:15
uvos__sure13:16
Wizzupok, pine64-uboot pkg should work now13:16
dsc_arno11: my address book does not work unfortunately13:17
Wizzup(xinomilo in particular) please be wary when updating the pkg, I haven't tested the u-boot yet and it might break your device13:17
dsc_arno11: click on name (to send a message) -> "internet connection required"13:17
WizzupI'll build an image now13:17
Wizzupdsc_: set up the libicd-network-dummy13:17
arno11dsc_: ah ok13:18
dsc_Wizzup: I installed the pkg13:18
dsc_stil the error, or should I reboot?13:18
Wizzupdsc_: the pkg tells you to run a gconf command13:19
Wizzuprun that13:19
Wizzupand then in the internet connections dialog, select 'Dummy network'13:20
dsc_my VM has internet13:20
Wizzupyes, but icd2 is not aware of the eth0 line13:20
dsc_alright13:20
Wizzupthe dummy will make it assume it has internet13:20
dsc_gconftool-2 -s -t string /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/DUMMY/type DUMMY13:21
dsc_gconftool-2 -s -t string /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/DUMMY/name 'Dummy network'13:21
dsc_gconftool-2 -s -t boolean /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/DUMMY/autoconnect true13:21
Wizzupthat's it13:21
Wizzuphttps://phoenix.maemo.org/job/leste-image-pinephone-daedalus/1/console13:21
Wizzuplet's see ^13:21
dsc_i did that13:21
freemangordonwe shall have that as part of the image I think13:21
freemangordon(dummy net)13:21
Wizzupdsc_: ok, so now status menu -> internet connections -> dummy13:21
dsc_dummy was already there13:22
dsc_not sure13:22
Wizzupdid you activate / select it?13:23
dsc_yeah, it was already selected or activated (I think)13:23
dsc_I'm not sure what counts as "already activated"13:23
dsc_the list entry has blue background13:23
Wizzuptry again now from addressbook13:24
dsc_maybe it just registered wrong in the addressbook or something13:24
dsc_yes it doesnt work13:24
dsc_same error13:24
Wizzupwhat about the application manager? does it complain?13:24
Wizzupmaybe give the device a reboot or something, not sure13:24
dsc_ah, that says "no saved connection available"13:25
dsc_strange, because there is https://plak.infrapuin.nl/selif/k4jrxeoj.png13:25
dsc_ok ill reboot13:26
Wizzupwait13:26
dsc_ok13:26
Wizzupdid you actually enable it from the status menu13:26
Wizzupthe app manager should also give you a dialog where you can select it13:26
Wizzuphaving it as a configured connection doesn't mean it's active13:26
dsc_https://plak.infrapuin.nl/selif/fecefvtx.png13:27
dsc_(via status menu)13:27
Wizzupthat seems wrong13:27
Wizzuptry a reboot13:27
Wizzup(just to save us all some time)13:27
dsc_addressbook still says it, I do have a dummy network as active now though13:30
dsc_maybe something with my VM13:30
sicelore:daedalus - i think the n900 sphone troubles should not be a blocker (ogg or no wav). we can simply state in the 'release notes' that N900 calls are still WIP ... this was true in last release too13:30
siceloi just think maintaining two versions in parallel is good for our small team13:31
dsc_app manager works now13:31
Wizzupdsc_: ok, so maybe go offline->online in availabiity13:31
Wizzupsicelo: I wasn't suggesting three for sure :)13:32
sicelohah, meant:13:32
sicelos/is good/is not good/13:32
Wizzupwell, I think we should not twait too long for excalibur13:33
Wizzupotherwise we'll always be switching to what is then oldstable13:33
dsc_oh, this addressbook error only happens with telegram13:33
dsc_(with contacts from telegram)13:34
Wizzupapparmor disabled?13:34
dsc_hehe, this apparmor has bitten me so many times13:34
dsc_but lets see13:34
Wizzupwe'll fix it up and use it everywhere this year13:34
dsc_nah still the error13:35
Wizzupok, I have to admit I don't use the vm image that much13:35
WizzupI usually use the d413:35
siceloWizzup: most definitely @excalibur. that's why i would suggest dropping chimaera as soon as we are able to :-)13:36
sicelothen we maintain one 'stable' while experimenting with excalibur13:36
Wizzupsicelo: when we release daedalus we will drop it13:37
siceloyeah13:37
siceloarno11: qt issues for daedalus maybe?13:38
sicelobut i've been dailying daedalus for maybe two or three months now (or i'm overly optimistic?), and personally have nothing that i think is a blocker for releasing it now13:40
sicelothere are a couple of wrinkles here and there, but i think we can either live with them or fix as we go, e.g. the un-ACKed SMSes on D4, inverted current_now sign on D4, etc.13:41
sicelothe inverted current_now is annoying when the device has started giving off the audible notification - connecting to a charger keeps the dings going until the percentage rises above the threshold (iirc 10%). if the sign was correct, it would stop immediately13:44
arno11sicelo: no real blocker for me too. (apart swap).13:56
arno11+1 @dropping chimaera13:57
siceloyou had some qt issues at some point. those got resolved?13:58
arno11and +1 @go for excalibur soon13:58
WizzupI think the swap this should be a blocker13:58
arno11that's the highest priority for n900 imo: we still don't have any working img14:01
Wizzupyeah14:01
WizzupI'll try to get it done in this run, I'm doing some pinephone related pkgs too14:02
arno11cool14:03
Wizzupand then maybe also the raspi images14:04
Wizzupjust from a pr standpoint it'd be nice to have some additional updates14:04
Wizzupbtw https://www.phoronix.com/news/Debian-13-Hard-Freeze14:05
arno11ah yes @raspi14:06
Wizzuphey... https://github.com/hoehermann/purple-presage14:09
xinomiloWizzup : "Setting up pine64-uboot (0.10+4m7) ...14:10
xinomilo**********************************************************14:10

Wizzupxinomilo: did you install to emmc?14:10
xinomiloyes14:10
Wizzupok, yeah, the pkg doesn't auto update uboot there\14:10
Wizzupmaybe hold off for a day or so while I build the new image14:11
Wizzupthen I will test it on my pinephone14:11
xinomilook, great!14:13
xinomiloshould i file any bugs i see? there are many small things i've been noticing..14:17
xinomiloapt/repo related mostly14:17
WizzupI think the repo already configured warning you have ot ignore for now14:18
sicelo>> 14:04 < Wizzup> just from a pr standpoint it'd be nice to have some additional updates  -  you mean before daedalus?14:18
Wizzupbut sure, please file issues on git.maemo.org/leste/bugtracker14:18
Wizzupsicelo: I mean with the daedalus news post14:18
xinomilodaedalus packages for example show as downgrades14:19
Wizzupxinomilo: if that is the case I think you missed some pin config14:19
Wizzuplet me see if I can add a apt preferences pin for daedalus-devel14:20
xinomiloi do have /etc/apt/preferences.d/pin-daedalus14:20
Wizzupdo you have -devel repos enabled14:21
xinomilodon't think so14:22
Wizzupok14:22
Wizzupin any case14:22
Wizzupyes, daedalus is marked as downgrade if you dist upgrade14:22
Wizzupthat is because chimaera versioning was FUBAR14:22
Wizzupthis is why we have the pin files in place to force the upgrade14:22
xinomilopin works, i think its just the versioning... dpkg: warning: downgrading atinout from 0.9.1+m7 to 0.9.1+4m714:23
xinomilo( pin works = packages upgraded using apt upgrade)14:23
Wizzupyes, chimaera versioning is busted14:30
Wizzupwe can't retroactively fix it other than forcing the 'downgrade' to daedalus14:30
Wizzupchimaera should have beem +3m7 but it is +m714:30
Wizzupand debian considers +m7 higher than +3m4 or +4m714:30
Wizzuphence the pin files14:30
Wizzupso this is unfortunately 'to be expected' currently14:31
WizzupI'll write about this in the news post14:31
arno11Wizzup: after maemo-ringtone update, the issue is still there with ogg..but no issue with ogg ringtones from the web15:41
arno11dsc_: indeed time is ok now in conversations, ty15:41
Wizzuparno11: uhh :)15:46
arno11:)15:50
Wizzupdid you 'select' one of the ogg ones15:51
arno11yep15:51
Wizzupit's definitely vorbis inside15:52
WizzupI don't know what's differnet about your online ones - sample rate?15:52
arno11let me chech15:52
arno11*check15:52
arno11mines are 48khz mono16:01
arno11nokia ones are 44khz stereo16:01
Wizzupmaybe convert em with ffmpeg and check?16:02
arno11hmm because we use 8000Hz mono for calls now, maybe that's racy when switching ucm profile (stereo --> mono) with original ringtones16:03
arno11@convert, will check16:04
arno11Wizzup: yeah it does the trick: converting nokia ringtone to mono works16:23
arno11*i.e converting Nokia_tune.ogg to mono16:24
Wizzup*sigh* :D16:26
Wizzupshouldn't PA just take a mono ringtone and play it as stereo anyway, or vice versa?16:26
WizzupI don't think UCM actually changes anything here16:26
arno11ucm doesn't change anything but sphone switches profile just after call starts16:27
arno11so PA plays for a short time a stereo and a mono stuff16:28
arno11*at the same time16:28
uvos__yeah and thats what pa is for, to resample what the app gives it into what the output is configure as16:28
uvos__but its seemingly broken16:29
arno11bbl16:30
Wizzupcan't wait to move to pipewire :)16:38
siceloheh, why? :-D16:39
Wizzupbecause it seems to be much more promising and stable than PA16:49
siceloi don't know if it is more stable, but yes it promises a lot (not sure how well it delivers on the promise)16:58
siceloit promises features that should be useful for mobile calls, but afaik, it's all still a promise today16:59
siceloso yeah ...16:59
WizzupI use pipewire daily on my laptop fwiw17:00
Wizzupand the pulse emulation17:00
Wizzuphttps://phoenix.maemo.org/job/leste-image-pinephone-daedalus/2/console17:01
Wizzuppinephone image finished17:01
siceloi'm also using it too (PW, debian sid)17:03
Wizzupis there anything harder in life than detaching the pinephone from the pinephone case17:06
WizzupI wonder17:06
sicelohah, it's difficult to remove?17:11
Wizzupsurprisingly, but I just managed17:12
dsc_arno11: https://plak.infrapuin.nl/selif/drjm177i.png (building this now)17:16
dsc_also, I think my VM was cursed so I reinstalled and will retry addressbook etc.17:17
Wizzupdoes pine64 still need kernel patches or does it mostly use upstream kernel now I wonder17:20
Wizzuphttps://salsa.debian.org/Mobian-team/devices/kernels/sunxi64-linux17:21
Wizzupstill has some patches17:21
Wizzupso we can rebase on their 6.12 I guess17:21
Wizzupdoes anyone remember the fix for the gconf2  dep (upgrading old device)17:36
Wizzup:D17:36
Wizzuppkg --configure dbus-x11 ; pkg --configure gconf2 pkg --configure libgconf-2-417:38
Wizzupthat seems to have done it17:38
Wizzupdpkg, not pkg17:38
freemangordonWizzup: it might differ, depending on what packages are installed17:39
arno11dsc_: looks good18:09
uvos__i just whent the ham fisted approch by uninstalling everything that depends on gconf and gconf18:09
uvos__upgradeing and then reinstaling the packages18:10
Wizzupwell, not sure if the pine64 image is booting or not :) I guess I'll need to get a serial, classic18:16
Wizzupoh, now it is18:17
Wizzuplooks like the rotation might not work any more, wonder if that is some iio-sensor-proxy related thing18:19
Wizzupwell, the kernel was almost ready but it needs quilt magic (:'() https://phoenix.maemo.org/job/pine64-kernel-source/110/console18:45
xinomiloFYI, can install unofficial signal (https://github.com/dennisameling/Signal-Desktop) as in mobian, but having trouble using text (virtual keyboard doesnt open/show).. but managed to send voice message..18:46
Wizzupwhen I have some more energy I will try to update that patch and figure out quilt again18:46
Wizzupis it qt6 or something?18:46
xinomilodon't know18:46
xinomiloiirc, forked from original signal, not into internals really ...18:47
dsc_Electron18:47
Wizzupok18:48
Wizzupour virtual keyboard does not work with this atm18:48
inkyyou mentioned maep recently. does it work for you? so for me it a) doesn't download osm tiles, only shows google map tiles; b) doesn't search, says 'geonames download failed'; c) it looks like that pinephone's gps is fixed but it shows map around venice. don't know how to tell it to show where it is fixed. i guess it already shows?20:16
Wizzup(a) yup it doesn't do the new osm api (2) this never worked for me on fremantle even (3) press the radar icon20:17
inkyoh thank you! where is radar icon? in taskbar? near wifi and battery?20:31
inkyaaah; i changed tiles to virtual earth hybrid and i see now radar icon in between - and +.20:33
Smatkoviis there a place where sources of maemo apps from chimaera are available to compile?21:23
Smatkoviand can an unauthorized person like me upload built packages for others?21:25
Wizzupyes, all our extras are on https://git.maemo.org/leste-extras21:27
Wizzupyou have to request perms per application to upload21:27
Smatkovicool thanks.21:33
