Hmm, `du -h' says /opt/bounce takes up 21.7M on my N900.

There's nothing but icons, .service and .desktop files installed outside of

That should be possible. You need just the rootfs. On working tablet 
mount rootfs again to some other directory (to get rid of other 
filesystems mounted on top of it) and create rootfs image of it. Than 
the linux flasher (flasher-3.5 for Fremantle) should hopefully flash it.

Or at least that was it with previous devices that use jffs2 filesystem. 
There is mkfs.ubifs so hopefully it is otherwise the same or very 
similar, see here
http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/faq/ubifs.html#L_mkfubifs

Sadly I don't know more details sice I couldn't go to summit and don't 
have the device. Many things changed with N900.

Re: New project announcement: gst-dsp, with beagleboard demo image

2009-10-13 Thread Felipe Contreras

felipe.contre...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi,

 This is the first public release of gst-dsp; a native GStreamer plug-in to
 access Texas Instruments' DSP algorithms for OMAP3 platforms.

 The code came originally from a series of TI projects: tiopenmax[1], and
 libbridge[2]. gst-dsp replaces these two layers and talks directly to the DSP
 bridge driver.

 The main advantages are code simplification (5k vs 50k), and better 
 performance
 (at least 4 times less CPU usage). However, not all of the codecs have been
 implemented, only MPEG-4 and H.263 video encoders and decoders, the JPEG
 encoder, and H.264 is partially supported.

 Currently it's used in the Nokia N900.

 In order to make it easier for people to try it out, I created a demo image 
 for
 the beagleboard with all the required components: GStreamer, gst-dsp, DSP
 public binaries, and a kernel with DSS2 and DSP bridge driver.

 The linux kernel (DSS2 + dspbridge) is at the v2.6.32-felipec1 tag in:
 http://gitorious.org/~felipec/linux-omap/felipec

 The DSP algorithms are public, and come from tiopenmax:
 https://gforge.ti.com/gf/download/frsrelease/170/1399/tiopenmax-0.3.5.tar.gz

 Here's the demo rootfs with the kernel image and instructions:
 http://people.freedesktop.org/~felipec/beagle-2.6.32-rc3/

 And here's the video showing it on action for both playback and recording:

Nokia N900 cannot connect to WPA2 + PEAP + MSCHAPv2 Wifi Networks

2009-10-13 Thread Andrea Grandi
Hi, I'm trying to connect my N900 to the wifi network of the
Universidad Politecnica de Valencia and I'm not able to connect.

I'm able to connect without problems if I use both Ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10 Beta.

These are the parameters I'm choosin during connection:

ESSID: UPVNET2G
EAP Type: PEAP
Certificate: none (trying to install it directly tells me that it's
already installed, anyway I don't think it's mandatory, it's just for
our security).
EAP Mode: EAP MSCHAPv2

Username: ALUMNO\angra4 (I also tried ang...@alumno.upv.es and
ang...@inf.upv.es with no success)
Password: ***

The error I'm getting is: Authentication failed, retry?

I was getting the same error with my N810 :(

Is there any way to fix this problem?

p.s: if you need more technical information about our network, you can
find them here: http://www.upv.es/doc/wifi
and here: 
http://www.upv.es/contenidos/miw/infoweb/infoacceso/dat/707687normalc.html

p.p.s: if you cannot understand/translate from spanish I can do it for you.

Thanks for you support!

Re: Getting package with lower version into extras-testing

2009-10-13 Thread Tim Teulings
Hallo!

 Thanks Graham, I guess I´ll have to do it that way then. Only I still 
 don´t really understand why. I mean, why is it not ok to just upload a 
 package with a lower version number to extras-devel? I could then 
 promote the stable one into extras-testing and the unstable one could 
 remain in extras-devel.

People do updates with the application manager on extras-devel. If there is
a package with multiple version in the repository, application manager will
only show and allow update to the packages with the highest version number.
A repository togetehr with the application manager does not work like a
file system. Also if a device has already downloaded a package version with
higher number, placing an package with lower version number will not result
in an update on the device. So why should one upload a package nobody will
ever see or get? Depending on upload and download time different things
will happen on the device.

However you now clain that extras-devel is a staging repository for
extras-testing and extras where you want multiple packages version where
different package version go into different target repositories, so above
should be allowed. I would say: No. extras-testing is not a target
repository it is only a transitional repository where packages should be
placed because on wants them to get them into extras. So packages that are
placed into extras-testing should be of the kind I think it is bug free,
you, too? and not I know it is buggy, just take a look at the future (in
fact QA people will take a look at extras-testing and will test sofwtare
that is known to be unstable).

I would suggest to give next stable version but currenttly still buggy a
special new package name like myapp-unstable or myapp6 (where 5 is the
current version) (and keep this version in extras-devel). This was already
suggested and sound much cleaner.

Graham Cobb wrote:
 I think that the best way to support two ongoing streams (say, a stable 
 stream 
 and a testing stream) is to give them two different package names.  This is 
 the way debian handles things like kde3 and kde4 or the various versions of 
 gcj.  This is particularly easy in Maemo because the user doesn't need to see 
 the package name directly if you set a display name.
 
 So, I would create two new packages: conboy0.5 and conboy0.6 (or, if you 
 prefer, conboy-stable and conboy-testing).  The display names would be 
 something like Conboy (stable version) and Conboy (testing version).
 
 You should specify Conflicts in the control file so that they can both 
 install 
 the same files (assuming that you don't plan to support having both installed 
 at the same time).

promote the stable one into extras-testing and the unstable one could

Having to use package names like conboy-stable and conboy-testing seems 
a bit odd to me. We already got stable and unstable repositories, so why 
not just move stable versions to the stable repository and leave 
unstable packages in the unstable repository?

Probably I missed some important point, but right know I don´t see why 
it shouldn´t work like this.

 On the summit someone was giving me the tip that I could prepend '1:' to
 the version number. That way the autobuilder would think it's newer, but
 the version number which is shown would remain the same.
 
 No!  Unless I am very confused, using epochs is not a solution!  Once you use 
 an epoch, the version with the epoch is later than all versions without the 
 epoch.  So, if you have built 1:0.5.6 you will have to use version number 
 1:0.6.0 to build the 0.6 version.  And if you do the same thing another day 
 you will have to increement the epochs again.  That is not what the epoch 
 mechanism is designed for: it is designed to fix version numbering mistakes 
 or changes.

Thanks for the clarification. I did it because I think (hope) that 
verison 0.5.6 will be the last update to the 0.5.x series and I just 
wanted to get it somehow through. Well, now I´ll have to live with the 
consequences ;)

 That sounds like a bug in the promotion interface: it should handle epochs 
 correctly.

I´ll file a bug then.

Thanks!

Exactly. If I upload e.g. 0.5.6 (stable) to extras-devel where there is 
already 0.6.0-alpha9 (unstable) the users still will get the unstable 
version which is exactly what I want. In fact I don´t need to have the 
stable version in extras-devel at all, but I have to put it there first 
to be able to promote it to extras-testing.

 However you now clain that extras-devel is a staging repository for
 extras-testing and extras where you want multiple packages version where
 different package version go into different target repositories, so above
 should be allowed. I would say: No. extras-testing is not a target

 you, too? and not I know it is buggy, just take a look at the future (in
 fact QA people will take a look at extras-testing and will test sofwtare

I never said I want to put buggy software into extras-testing. I want to 
put stable software into extras-testing!

Of course extras-testing is only a transitional repository and of course 
the package should move to extras after some testing. That is, why I 
would only promote the stable version from extras-devel to 
extras-testing and I would leave the unstable version in extras-devel.

I think extras-devel is exactly for that. It´s the first step for a new 
package. So unstable packages should go there.
Now, once my 0.6-alphaX version will reach let´s say 0.6.0 and I 
consider it stable, then I´ll promote it to extras-testing. There it 
will replace the 0.5.x versions and testers can test it. Once they think 
it´s stable, I´ll promote it to extras where it also will replace the 
0.5.x versions.

In this way there is only on package and the users decides which version 
he wants. If he has enabled extras-devel he´ll get the unstable version, 
if he has enabled extras-testing he´ll get the testing version, and so on.

 I would suggest to give next stable version but currenttly still buggy a
 special new package name like myapp-unstable or myapp6 (where 5 is the
 current version) (and keep this version in extras-devel). This was already
 suggested and sound much cleaner.

I will go that way if it´s the way to go, but I would like to understand 
why my way is wrong. I think it makes more sense to have only one 
package and to leave the definition on whether it is stable or not to 
the repository which it is in. If I create a -stable and a -devel 
version I make it more difficult and confusing for a user to upgrade 
from the unstable to the final version.

Sorry to be so persistent, but I still don´t understand why I should 
have two packages.

You are probably right that the root cause of the problem is that we are using 
extras-devel for two different purposes: it is a test area for very early 
versions of packages as well an important step on the way for packages trying 
to get to the users.  Sometime we may have to split that up.

However, at the moment, your requirement is unusual.  The current rules 
(autobuilder checks that it is building a newer version, and the promotion 
interface only shows the latest version) help prevent lots of mistakes, 
particularly by people who are not too familiar with packaging.  I would not 
want to change them.

So, I understand what you are trying to do and why but I think the current 
rules do more good than harm.  You seem to have a few options: (i) only use 
extras-devel once you are close to calling a new version stable and are 
unlikely to do any more updates to the previous version (you could use a 
private repository, like I still do for the daily builds from SVN for my 
software), (ii) use different package names (upgrades should work if you are 
using Conflicts:  Replaces:), (iii) hack with version numbers using epochs.

Let's see how many packages find this a problem before we look at changing 
anything.

Screenshot as loading screen on Maemo 5

2009-10-13 Thread Thomas Perl
Hello!

With the latest firmware, the Settings window and the Application
Manager both show a fake screenshot when clicking the icon in the menu
and then fade to the real window contents after the application has
really started up (look closely at the Language  region icon in the
settings dialog when starting it to see what I mean, as the screenshot
contains a different icon than the real application).

For applications that start up longer (e.g. Python applications) this
can be really helpful, and I'd like to do the same for gPodder if
possible.

Is there an official way to do this for third party applications (or
how is it done at all)?

can you share those notes?
I'm wondering what the perfect, complete, (online) backup and
restore strategy is

I guess:
* backup: copy just $HOME and /etc online (you can't read the entire
  blockdevice in a clean way without shutting device down, right?)
  keep a list of installed packages and/or manual tweaks outside of
  $HOME and /etc
* restore: write base image - currently not at
  http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/ btw? - back, after which you can sync
  the $HOME and /etc back. and reinstall packages, reapply manual tweaks

This is interesting because it doesn't seem to be simply a screenshot.
I can see in the app manager that it actually resembles the current

 Hello!

 With the latest firmware, the Settings window and the Application
 Manager both show a fake screenshot when clicking the icon in the menu
 and then fade to the real window contents after the application has
 really started up (look closely at the Language  region icon in the
 settings dialog when starting it to see what I mean, as the screenshot
 contains a different icon than the real application).

 For applications that start up longer (e.g. Python applications) this
 can be really helpful, and I'd like to do the same for gPodder if
 possible.

 Is there an official way to do this for third party applications (or
 how is it done at all)?

It appears that this can be accomplished with a combination of
liblocation and libcityinfo:

Re: Maemo Summit /opt BOF notes...

2009-10-13 Thread Tim Teulings
Hello!

 Just a side note, since it was multiple times mentioned in the BOF that
 Bounce Evolution is already optified. On my device deinstalling Bounce
 freed around 50 MB on /. For me this is a strong hint that Bounce is
 either not optified or that installing it on the device did not what was
 expected to happen.
 
 Hmm, `du -h' says /opt/bounce takes up 21.7M on my N900.
 
 Maemo version: 1.2009-41.10
   Bounce version: 1.0.0
 
 There's nothing but icons, .service and .desktop files installed outside of 
 /opt according to /var/lib/dpkg/info/bounce.list.

Right. Reinstalling the application did not reproduce the effect. My /
however was closed to ful, the number of applications installed did not
match the fullness of 7 and deinstalling bounce did increase the space
by 50MB. Also I sure that there is no other single application I could
have deinstalled to get that much free space (and I have not installed
and einstalled that much applications anyway). Strange, very strange...

OK, I correct my self until someone else with full / and bounce
installed can reproduce it (and makes further analysis before
deinstallation ;-)).

 Hi,

 Can someone with enough powers remove the python-id3lib package from

 * The underlying library (libid3-3.8.3) was removed from Maemo 5 for
 the final release, therefore the package is currently uninstallable.
 * Its only user (canola) now uses a more modern Python ID3 module
 called python-mutagen. So no other package uses it on Maemo 5.
 * The pyid3lib package is not maintained upstream anymore, and was
 removed from Debian/Ubuntu a long time ago.

All good reasons. :)

Issues with Python and maemo-optify (was: Re: Maemo Summit /opt BOF notes...)

2009-10-13 Thread Anderson Lizardo
Hi,

On Sun, Oct 11, 2009 at 7:44 AM, Tim Samoff sam...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi,

 Using /opt: Why, How  For How Long?

 What are the issues?

 • Standards.
 ◦ What about introducing a new 'mobile' Linux standard.
 • Repackaging.
 • Differences in flash performance.

I'd like to raise one very important issue detected during our
experiments with maemo-optifier and Python applications (including
python's core packages, such as python2.5 and python2.5-minimal).

Python in various places relies on paths returned by calls to
readlink(). As some of you might know, the readlink() syscall
dereferences symbolic links.

One serious side-effect of optifying python2.5-minimal package is that:

* /opt directories are added to sys.path
* Any modules under /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages are NOT found.
* Byte-compiled files are put on /opt/maemo/ instead of the usual
/usr/lib/... paths

This happens because Python uses the full dereferenced path to
/usr/bin/python2.5 (as returned by readlink()) to detect the module
path. Therefore it only sees the modules under /opt/maemo, not the
ones under /usr/lib/... (unless you explicitely set PYTHONPATH)

Another issue is that even if python2.5 is not optified, any Python
application which has its main script optified will not be able to
import its own modules. See this experiment (running on a desktop):

$ echo 'import testopt'  main.py
$ echo 'print hello'  testopt.py
$ python main.py
hello

The test case works just fine. Now let's optify it:

$ rm testopt.pyc
$ mkdir opt
$ mv main.py opt/
$ ln -s opt/main.py .
$ python main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File main.py, line 1, in module
import testopt
ImportError: No module named testopt
$ ls -lR
.:
total 8
lrwxrwxrwx 1 andgomes andgomes   11 2009-10-13 16:05 main.py - opt/main.py
drwxr-xr-x 2 andgomes andgomes 4096 2009-10-13 16:06 opt
-rw-r--r-- 1 andgomes andgomes   14 2009-10-13 16:03 testopt.py

./opt:
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 andgomes andgomes 15 2009-10-13 16:06 main.py

As you can see, the testopt module was not found even though it is
on the same directory as the main.py symlink. This happens because
Python's notion of current directory is based on the value returned
by the readlink(main.py, ...) syscall, which in this case is
/tmp/opt/main.py. Therefore, python2.5 looks into /tmp/opt/ for the
testopt.py, but does not find it.

Of course, we can modify python2.5 so that it does not call readlink()
on the main script, but for sure it was put there for some reason, and
can create even more bugs. Besides, it can cause some subtle bugs,
such as modules with the same name but in different directories being
imported by mistake, and causing random exceptions.

Therefore, we would like to ask the community how to better approach
this problem. For sure the PyMaemo packages as is occupy too much
space to be entirely on the root partition of the current size, so we
need a solution to reduce the baseline Python size. Here are the
options I see (in no specific order):

1) hack Python to not rely on paths returned by readlink()
2) Install Python properly under /opt by modifying debian rules (e.g.
using --prefix etc.) and do not run maemo-optify for any python
applications.
3) Work hard to reduce Python footprint

Some remarks of my own:

1) looks dangerous, can create even more bugs than fixing them
2) Should work just fine, as long as ALL Python applications/modules
also install under /opt. Note that creating symlinks back to /usr/...
will NOT work, for the same reasons as maemo-optify currently does not
work for Python. Has implications for all those Python packages, and
will need special handling to make packages work for earlier Maemo
releases.
3) Looks the best solution IMHO, but takes time and is not guaranteed
to have big gains.

Finally, I really like (3) best, but I'm afraid it is not a short term
solution. We will do it anyway in the following releases, and we be
believe we can achieve great gains (although it is hard to tell
whether this good is good enough).

Comments, suggestions are welcome!

PS: we are about to make a release candidate for PyMaemo and we would
love to see it already installed under /opt to reduce root partition
footprint in short term, but given the various problems we had running
it locally, we will probably have to postpone it :( Suggestions on how
to better approach it are welcome!

 Sorry to be so persistent, but I still don´t understand why I should

 You are probably right that the root cause of the problem is that we  
 are using
 extras-devel for two different purposes: it is a test area for very  
 early
 versions of packages as well an important step on the way for  
 packages trying
 to get to the users.  Sometime we may have to split that up.

 However, at the moment, your requirement is unusual.  The current  
 rules
 (autobuilder checks that it is building a newer version, and the  
 promotion
 interface only shows the latest version) help prevent lots of  
 mistakes,
 particularly by people who are not too familiar with packaging.  I  
 would not
 want to change them.

 So, I understand what you are trying to do and why but I think the  
 current
 rules do more good than harm.  You seem to have a few options: (i)  
 only use
 extras-devel once you are close to calling a new version stable and  
 are
 unlikely to do any more updates to the previous version (you could  
 use a
 private repository, like I still do for the daily builds from SVN  
 for my
 software), (ii) use different package names (upgrades should work if  
 you are
 using Conflicts:  Replaces:), (iii) hack with version numbers using  
 epochs.

 Let's see how many packages find this a problem before we look at  
 changing
 anything.

I strongly second Graham's point of view on this. Changing anything in  
the build system has a ripple effect on all packages and we can't  
afford a complete set of repository rebuilds at this point in time.  
Hopefully conforming to the current requirements of the build system,  
i.e. packages with a newer version get built, older packages do not,  
is not too burdensome.

Re-packaging packages from diablo which are still in bugzilla

2009-10-13 Thread Jeremiah Foster
Hello,

At the summit a group of devs gathered to discuss how to re-package  
and build packages from diablo which still have bugs in bugzilla. This  
email is meant to document that discussion.

It was decided that versioned, signed repositories would be created  
for these packages, Niels was volunteered to do that particular task.  
The naming of the repos was planned to be /community/diablo-X where X  
is a number starting at one and incrementing. Karsten was assigned the  
job of creating an install file with keys in a deb. Jeremiah was  
assigned the task of creating a community owned version of these  
packages, essentially reverse engineering them and posting them to the  
repos.

More details to follow.

SDK vs. device repositories

2009-10-13 Thread Cornelius Hald
Hi,

my package depends on libpcre3 which can be found in this repository:
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/maemo5.0/free/p/pcre3/

It was configured as repository on Maemo 5 Beta2 SDK by default. I'm not
sure how it is in the final SDK, but on the device it's not configured.
Also the package libpcre3 is not in any of the default repositories.

On my device I have:
deb https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/apps/ ./
deb https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/mr0 ./
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free non-free

Is this like it should be? Did I miss something? What should I do to get
the mentioned package on the devices of the end users?

Thanks!

extras-testing as the promotion still does not work with the higher
epoch. I filed a bug here [1].

I don't know how long it will take to fix this and I could understand if
it gets a low priority, because only me depends on it now. To resolve
this issue quickly I only see two options:

1) I do a new package with higher epoch and higher version number. That
would mean converting 1:0.5.7 into 2:0.6.0 (or something bigger than
0.6.0). I don't really like this, because it makes no sense from a
versioning point of view.

2) Someone deletes all conboy packages with version = 0.5.6 (including
all of 0.6.x) from extras-devel. If this would be possible I could
remove all the crap I since tried (like increasing the epoch etc.) and
just upload fresh working packages. This would only affect extras-devel.
All other repositories need no change.

If you (Jeremiah) or Niels or someone how has the power could do that I
would be really really grateful. I really screwed that up - so sorry for
the work I create.

Thanks!
Conny

P.S. There might be other options of course, or maybe fixing the bug is
a quick thing. So I'm also happy about other input which might resolve
this situation.

 no wait :(

 I really talked too fast! Connection manager has a lot of problems, in
 my hopinion
 first of all I got disconnected lot of times... then I was able to
 connect again but the connection manager said my status was
 disconnected, even if I was chatting on Gtalk... so I think there are
 some more problems.


this issues can be related to the power saving settings, I had the same
problems with some routers.
Go to Settings - Internet connections - Connections, then choose the
connection and hit the edit button, follow the setup till the end. At the
end you'll see the advanced configurations button, go to the third
tab(others) and change the power saving settings (this can drain your
battery much faster).

 Sadly I don't know more details sice I couldn't go to summit and don't
 have the device. Many things changed with N900.

Thank you very much for the tips. I will have a look at the info you
provided, just one quick question: this evening, coming back from the
airport, I made a gzipped copy of /dev/mtd* 0 through 4. Are those of
any use at all?

close but most probably no, /dev/mtd5 looks like the correct one
see dmesg output here http://pastebin.ca/1610167
lines 47-75 and 154-159

So maybe, just maybe, flasher could flash copy of /dev/mtd5 as rootfs.

Re: SDK vs. device repositories

2009-10-13 Thread daniel.wilms
Hi,

I could install it from the applications repository. It should be there, which 
wouldn't cause problems for the end user.

Cheers Daniel

- Original message -





 Hi,

 my package depends on libpcre3 which can be found in this repository:
 http://repository.maemo.org/pool/maemo5.0/free/p/pcre3/

 It was configured as repository on Maemo 5 Beta2 SDK by default. I'm not
 sure how it is in the final SDK, but on the device it's not configured.
 Also the package libpcre3 is not in any of the default repositories.

 On my device I have:
 deb https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/apps/ ./
 deb https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/mr0 ./
 deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ fremantle free non-free

 Is this like it should be? Did I miss something? What should I do to get
 the mentioned package on the devices of the end users?

 Thanks!
 Conny
