02:26 <saeed> hi

07:05 <sicelo> hi saeed. do you need any assistance?

10:33 <sicelo> d4 update: i've been able now to boot all the way to H-D, but it powered off again (prolly needs the new upower/mce treatment). i connected the battery directly to the +/- and connected the fried bms as well. guess some part of it is still functional enough to satisfy the BL

10:38 <uvos> MBM dosent care one bit about the bms

10:38 <uvos> you can happly boot a d4 without it

10:38 <uvos> it just cares about the voltage

10:39 <sicelo> well it didn't boot without the bms. just showed motorola logo, then died even before kexecboot menu

10:40 <uvos> im not sure whats going on your device but thats not the bms

10:40 <uvos> i run a d4 whith the battery dirrectly connected to the device

10:40 <uvos> no bms at all

10:40 <uvos> no issues

10:40 <uvos> same with running it off a lab supply

10:41 <sicelo> i'll give it a go again, since i haven't yet made things permanent

11:51 <sicelo> droid 4's fuel gauge driver reports wrong sign for current_now, which causes upower to always consider it discharging. if anyone would like to work on that, would be great, otherwise i'll probably get to it a little later down the road

11:51 <sicelo> it reports -ve for charging state, while -ve should mean discharging

12:05 <sicelo> created issue so this does not get forgotten, https://git.maemo.org/leste/bugtracker/issues/775

14:27 <dsc_> arno11: did qt5 launch time issue resolve?

15:44 <arno11> dsc_: @qt5, not 'directly': fmg figured out that qt launch time is better if we use swap on a separate partition, but the issue itself is still there

15:45 <dsc_> ok thx

15:46 <arno11> (i still use the raster widget tweak to workaround that)

15:57 <Wizzup> and the swap fix puts it on par with chimaera yeah?

16:00 <arno11> approximatively yeah

16:00 <arno11> but still very slow to open several qt apps at the same time

16:01 <arno11> *approximatively with u3

16:12 <sicelo> fun ... the mce logic is still flawed to some extent. will sent updated fixes shortly. my droid 4 keeps powering off :p

19:02 <sicelo> Wizzup: uvos: mce fix, https://git.maemo.org/leste/mce/pulls/65/

20:54 <sicelo> great to have the D4 running again :-)

20:54 <sicelo> arno11: i'll still work on the N900's call issue, but i will take a 3-week hiatus ... have lots of work coming up

20:56 <sicelo> i already tested cmtspeech as a permanent client. it seems to be promising - i had observed occassional crashes before, but not even one as a permanent client.

20:57 <sicelo> however, the PA simple api is a bit terrible for this, so in order to be really effective, i'll change it to the asynchronous calls

21:06 <arno11> sicelo: ok @hiatus. in the meanwhile, if you want me to test some code, don't hesitate to ask

21:09 <arno11> cool @permanent client

21:10 <arno11> and cool @d4 working :)

21:13 <arno11> i will try to finish (properly) sphone keypad stuff next week btw, but not so easy for a non-dev to make something 'uvos compliant' :P

21:14 <arno11> but that's already cool to be able to use a landscape keypad

21:24 <sicelo> and that's what's great about being able to compile and run your own stuff - if upstream doesn't like it, you can still use it ;-)

21:25 <arno11> ;)

21:41 <arno11> sicelo: Wizzup: btw to make boost mode easy to use, maybe we can add a new script in desktop-cmd-exec widget ? like when we click on it, it activates boost and show the max freq, and another click to deactivate it

21:42 <arno11> (i already use something similar, really useful imo)

21:46 <sicelo> by all means feel free :-)

21:48 <arno11> ah, btw you should use at least 500MHz min freq

21:49 <sicelo> what was the 'evil' frequency btw? 125MHz?

21:49 <arno11> yeah

21:50 <sicelo> is it already removed in Leste, or one must remove it manually?

21:50 <arno11> yep already removed in kernel

21:51 <arno11> (dts)

21:51 <sicelo> cool

21:56 <arno11> but 250MHz is also a problem, not directly but badly used by governor

21:57 <arno11> using 500 or 250 makes actually no diff in term of pm

21:58 <arno11> apart the fact that the device feels slower with 250 min freq
