2016-03-05 03:00:09	hopkinsdn	wondering how to get started on a port to the ZenWatch 2 or if there is one available already
2016-03-05 10:09:39	batlin	hi all
2016-03-05 10:10:00	batlin	I'm trying to build dory
2016-03-05 10:10:04	batlin	but I'm meeting this error
2016-03-05 10:10:07	batlin	~/android-sources/asteroid/build$ bitbake asteroid-image ERROR: Unable to parse OE_IMPORTED[:=]
2016-03-05 10:10:39	batlin	could you help me?
2016-03-05 10:42:21	locusf	anthias kernel compiled with just one patch
2016-03-05 10:45:29	@kido	hi batlin
2016-03-05 10:47:39	@kido	mhh it looks like the environment isn'ts set correctly. Could you try to source the prepare-build.sh in a new terminal and try once again? Also try to git pull in src/oe-core and src/oe-core/bitbake, it is unlikely but possible that a bug went to bitbake
2016-03-05 10:48:14	@kido	locusf: this is great! :D now the /system directory
2016-03-05 10:49:22	locusf	kido: asteroid image nearly compiled
2016-03-05 10:49:29	locusf	oh yeah /system
2016-03-05 10:49:35	@kido	:)
2016-03-05 10:50:07	@kido	 /system shouldn't be different from dory though. They might even be the same
2016-03-05 10:56:23	locusf	can't wait to do Project Purity on Wear watches
2016-03-05 10:56:34	locusf	(as in the mainline + freedreno)
2016-03-05 11:08:23	locusf	hmm it bootloops and exports partitions
2016-03-05 11:19:51	batlin	thank you @kido, im going to try
2016-03-05 11:20:45	@kido	locusf: do you think you would have time to invest on mainlining the kernel there?
2016-03-05 11:21:22	@kido	I have plans to work on it but it will require time
2016-03-05 11:25:00	locusf	kido: sorry, I have very little knowledge on the actual kernel coding
2016-03-05 11:25:07	locusf	I only know about configuring + modules
2016-03-05 11:26:03	@kido	yes it's alright, I was just reacting to "can't wait to do project purity"
2016-03-05 11:26:41	locusf	okay :)
2016-03-05 15:22:17	Coder206	Hi!
2016-03-05 15:23:10	Coder206	I would like to help out with the development of AsteroidOS
2016-03-05 15:23:46	@kido	hey Coder206 
2016-03-05 15:24:11	@kido	this is really cool, what would you like to do the most? :)
2016-03-05 15:25:36	Coder206	Hi kido! :) I am a huge advocate for the Web, I would like to work on Web Development and build apps in addition to OS development.
2016-03-05 15:28:27	@kido	what would you have in mind with web development? asteroid's website and infrastructure?
2016-03-05 15:29:45	@kido	actually that would be really great :) apps are developed in QML (even though it can be extended with javascript)
2016-03-05 15:30:43	Coder206	I saw that! I'd say the website because my specialty is more there than infrastructure. Mind you, your website is already gorgeous. I am willing to learn infrastructure. App development would be cool as well.
2016-03-05 15:33:02	@kido	this would be super cool, actually the website isn't that great and I thought about changing it but I don't have much time to invest in that and this is not my expertise so I always delay it. the current source code is available on github under the code branch of the "asteroidos.github.io" repository https://github.com/AsteroidOS/asteroidos.github.io/tree/code the code is based on the Sass website with
2016-03-05 15:33:02	@kido	middleman
2016-03-05 15:33:43	@kido	I mean, it's not that bad after all but I think we can do better
2016-03-05 15:34:58	@kido	one issue is that I don't have much money to spend so we don't have a server and are hosted by github's project pages which are static
2016-03-05 15:36:19	Coder206	I know what you mean. There is always something to add. I've got a plan with Microsoft Azure as a student, if you want deploy there, let me know
2016-03-05 15:37:07	@kido	what is their offer for students?
2016-03-05 15:38:48	Coder206	It's through Microsoft Dreamspark, you can deploy websites for free. I have done many static websites but I think I can do more. All my websites are on the azurewebsites.net domain but I can change it.
2016-03-05 15:39:23	@kido	interesting
2016-03-05 15:39:42	@kido	I am also a student so I might be able to subscribe to dreamspark too then
2016-03-05 15:39:56	Coder206	Yes, I'll get you a link
2016-03-05 15:40:08	Coder206	https://www.dreamspark.com/
2016-03-05 15:40:15	@kido	I can then transfer the domain name
2016-03-05 15:40:22	@kido	thank you
2016-03-05 15:40:45	Coder206	I am pretty sure. You just need to provide some information to register.
2016-03-05 15:40:56	Coder206	(to prove you are a student
2016-03-05 15:40:59	@kido	subscribing to microsoft's developer program isn't something I thought I would ever do and especialy for Asteroid... :)
2016-03-05 15:42:06	Coder206	I know what you mean.
2016-03-05 15:42:32	Coder206	Did you find the azure program subscription?
2016-03-05 15:42:52	@kido	I'm creating a microsoft account
2016-03-05 15:43:07	Coder206	Wait one second
2016-03-05 15:44:00	Coder206	I double checked, unfortunately, custom domains cannot be added in the free account with Dreamspark. You need to pay for Azure.
2016-03-05 15:44:07	Coder206	Sorry for misinforming.
2016-03-05 15:44:54	@kido	mhhh ok, too bad
2016-03-05 15:45:04	@kido	we will need to find another way then
2016-03-05 15:45:17	Coder206	Yep.
2016-03-05 15:47:42	Coder206	I am actually in the process of converting one of my old desktops to a server for fun. However, I just thought would your educational institution allow you to use their web servers. I have a friend whose website is hosted by the computer science division of his university.
2016-03-05 15:48:16	@kido	mhh this might be an idea
2016-03-05 15:50:41	Coder206	I meant to ask a question earlier on, are you building a webbrowser with this OS?
2016-03-05 15:52:28	@kido	currently not because that wouldn't be handy to use but actually that would be really simple with QtWebEngine
2016-03-05 15:56:14	Coder206	I would be willing to work on it, if you decide to go ahead with it. I saw that Qt is really useful, can you compile it into websites?
2016-03-05 15:57:55	@kido	what do you mean by go ahead with it? I don't think this should be included in the default installation but you'd be definitely encouraged to try that
2016-03-05 15:59:07	@kido	I think that qmlweb allows you to load QML with javascript inside a standard web browser http://pavelvasev.github.io/qmlweb.run/ but I think this is going a bit too far
2016-03-05 16:01:15	Coder206	I see. I meant if you ever decided to add it in the repository. That's a pretty cool demo.
2016-03-05 16:03:58	locusf	prebuilts/clang/linux-x86/host/3.6/bin/clang++: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
2016-03-05 16:04:05	locusf	I wonder whats wrong above ^
2016-03-05 16:04:54	Coder206	Sarcasm?
2016-03-05 16:04:59	@kido	Coder206: well I would be curious to see how it feels, but it will still lack some infrastructure like network over bluetooth
2016-03-05 16:05:58	@kido	locusf: seems to come from your host building machine
2016-03-05 16:06:24	Coder206	kido: Yes, I understand, we should definitely focus on infrastructure first. What do you mean but "how it feels"?
2016-03-05 16:06:24	@kido	what distro do you use?
2016-03-05 16:06:46	locusf	arch
2016-03-05 16:07:33	@kido	Coder206: this time I meant the architecture of AsteroidOS by "infrastructure" and for "how it feels" I was talking about a webbrowser inside AsteroidOS. we are talking about several things at the same time this is confusing ;)
2016-03-05 16:08:07	@kido	locusf: mhh debian give me /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libncurses.so.5 in https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/libncurses5/filelist try to do a dirty symlink
2016-03-05 16:08:22	@kido	(I'm not sure if arch also has multiarch)
2016-03-05 16:08:41	@kido	no joke intended between archlinux and multi-architectures ahah
2016-03-05 16:08:58	Coder206	kido: That clarifies things, what are you building the infrastructure with, QML?
2016-03-05 16:10:24	@kido	AsteroidOS is based upon OpenEmbedded, Qt5, Bluez5 and libhybris
2016-03-05 16:11:34	Coder206	So working with these to get everything working?
2016-03-05 16:13:25	@kido	well, this is what I'm working with. end-user apps developers who don't want to worry about all of that should just have to use QML
2016-03-05 16:13:54	Coder206	Ok.
2016-03-05 16:14:15	Coder206	Did you want me to work on the website?
2016-03-05 16:15:14	@kido	yes that would be great if you have ideas of improvement
2016-03-05 16:16:26	Coder206	Do you want me to use middleman to code or could I use Adobe Brackets or something?
2016-03-05 16:17:46	@kido	if you want to rewrite everything it'd be alright
2016-03-05 16:19:14	Coder206	Sounds good.
2016-03-05 16:19:26	Coder206	Is there a deadline for this?
2016-03-05 16:20:37	@kido	mhh before the end of april?
2016-03-05 16:22:04	Coder206	Ok, I'll do my best :)
2016-03-05 16:22:36	Coder206	How do you want me to send the code over to you?
2016-03-05 16:24:28	locusf	kido: got it working
2016-03-05 16:25:18	@kido	you can create your own git repository on github and whenever you have a big change you can ping me and I will try the website to give you feedback. if it gets better than the current website then I will replace the official repository with yours
2016-03-05 16:25:23	@kido	locusf: great, what did you do?
2016-03-05 16:26:36	Coder206	kido: Great, will do that. I have permission to use the current graphics?
2016-03-05 16:26:41	Coder206	locusf: Sorry for my comment earlier on
2016-03-05 16:27:12	locusf	kido: installed libtimf or something
2016-03-05 16:27:20	locusf	it had ncurses5 compatibility libraries
2016-03-05 16:27:47	@kido	locusf: alright
2016-03-05 16:28:02	@kido	Coder206: sure
2016-03-05 16:28:40	@kido	needless to say that your website should be open-source
2016-03-05 16:29:01	Coder206	Ok perfect, yes of course. I'll chat with you later, take care.
2016-03-05 16:30:28	@kido	cool, see you
2016-03-05 17:12:53	locusf	I wondered where I've lost 200G of free space :p
2016-03-05 17:13:04	locusf	then again I do have 2 OE trees + binaries
2016-03-05 17:21:06	@kido	ahah, maybe android is a big part of it
2016-03-05 17:37:18	LuckShadow	Hi :)
2016-03-05 17:40:14	LuckShadow	Anyone tried to port AsteroidOS for a file from dfu mode?
2016-03-05 17:48:36	LuckShadow_	git
2016-03-05 18:08:37	locusf	kido: I have 5 android source trees ...
2016-03-05 18:08:42	locusf	so yes
2016-03-05 18:11:52	locusf	rpi android tree is the largest at 74G
2016-03-05 18:11:55	locusf	gotta love ncdu
2016-03-05 18:28:39	locusf	hmm now hwcomposer doesn't work
2016-03-05 18:31:44	@kido	5 android tree woot
2016-03-05 18:31:58	@kido	oh you used libhybris on your rpi port?
2016-03-05 18:35:32	locusf	yeah
2016-03-05 18:37:17	@kido	what's wrong with hwcomposer?
2016-03-05 18:38:15	locusf	apparently nothing anymore
2016-03-05 18:38:23	locusf	badly packaged headers from my android tree
2016-03-05 18:39:22	@kido	:D
2016-03-05 18:52:04	locusf	again it blurts out the partitions as mass storage
2016-03-05 18:55:43	@kido	ok I pushed my changes to asteroid-alarmclock and added it to the default install
2016-03-05 18:56:47	@kido	some features are missing like the fact that alarms removal is pretty much... random and a daemonn is also missing to handle alarms when the alarmclock app isn't open
2016-03-05 18:56:59	@kido	but we are getting there slowly
2016-03-05 18:57:34	@kido	also we can send parameters to layers when we push them on a LayerStack
2016-03-05 18:58:02	@kido	and we can also close the apps when we are in a sublayer
2016-03-05 18:58:33	@kido	the UI of asteroid-alarmclock is pretty bad too, and there is a component that is totaly unusable on round screens
2016-03-05 19:31:00	@kido	welcome back Coder206 
2016-03-05 19:32:09	TheAppleMan	kido why?!?!? ???
2016-03-05 19:32:19	@kido	TheAppleMan: why what ?
2016-03-05 19:32:38	TheAppleMan	Alarm clock unusable on round screens
2016-03-05 19:32:47	@kido	no no
2016-03-05 19:32:59	@kido	it's just that for the day selector I'm currently using a Row of buttons
2016-03-05 19:33:11	@kido	we would need a circular days selector
2016-03-05 19:33:27	@kido	because if you try it today most of the row would be out of screen
2016-03-05 19:33:35	@kido	the rest of the UI has been thought so that it can still be used
2016-03-05 19:33:58	@kido	and the circular selector is just one more thing in the project's todo list
2016-03-05 20:07:10	@kido	hi locusf 
2016-03-05 20:07:16	LOaT	Hello. Any chance of getting Asteroids running on a Motorola MotoACTV? It's got the same SoC as the LG G Watch, has GPS, but only 256 of RAM.
2016-03-05 20:07:16	@kido	hi LOaT
2016-03-05 20:07:30	LOaT	Hello kido
2016-03-05 20:07:54	@kido	does it have an unlockable bootloader?
2016-03-05 20:08:39	LOaT	I believe so. I have CMW recovery on it and can flash ROMs to it, as well as push them with ADB.
2016-03-05 20:08:48	@kido	good
2016-03-05 20:09:11	@kido	indeed there is some doc about that on the internet
2016-03-05 20:09:30	@kido	do you know the android version that is used?
2016-03-05 20:09:33	LOaT	about Asteroid on the MotoACTV?
2016-03-05 20:09:51	LOaT	it's running 2.3.3 or .4
2016-03-05 20:09:55	@kido	no about getting root and changing the launcher of adroid on the motoactv
2016-03-05 20:10:13	@kido	mhhhh... I think we can't run libhybris on top of that :/
2016-03-05 20:10:40	LOaT	I have both the stock MotoACTV launcher and Zeam Launcher on mine. And I am rooted.
2016-03-05 20:12:31	LOaT	What's the earliest Android version that works?
2016-03-05 20:13:10	@kido	well the most tested is kitkat with cyanogenmod 11 thanks to sailfishos
2016-03-05 20:13:57	@kido	and on the g watch and g watch urbane we use some lollipop
2016-03-05 20:14:41	LOaT	Is it dependant on the version of Android, or of the kernel?
2016-03-05 20:14:46	LOaT	or both
2016-03-05 20:15:12	@kido	it is mostly related to the version of hwcomposer so android
2016-03-05 20:16:21	@kido	wikipedia says it's an OMAP3 SoC, not the same as G Watch
2016-03-05 20:16:50	LOaT	that will royally be a deal breaker for it them. Motorola built an amazing watch, then pretty much abandoned it.
2016-03-05 20:18:57	LOaT	royally/probably
2016-03-05 20:20:54	LOaT	my bad. it's the same as the Moto 360
2016-03-05 20:20:54	@kido	it seems there hasn't been activity on ROMs for the motoactv for a while
2016-03-05 20:21:04	@kido	yes moto is omap
2016-03-05 20:22:12	@kido	https://github.com/dproldan/android_device_motorola_G2 that might be useful though
2016-03-05 20:22:30	LOaT	yeah, it's definitly an orphan, but considering that the 360 didn't even have as good of hardware specs as the MotoACTV has, it's really a shame.
2016-03-05 20:23:32	@kido	how comfortable would you be with compiling android and getting your hands dirty in boot problems ?
2016-03-05 20:25:10	LOaT	If I can fix the display cable on my spare MotoACTV, no problem. It seems to be pretty unbrickable as long as you don't mind disassembling it in a worst case scenario , which I dont
2016-03-05 20:25:32	@kido	good
2016-03-05 20:26:50	LOaT	The one thing I always run into on ROMs is keeping the FM radio. And chance the MotoACTV will be able to keep that with Asteroid?
2016-03-05 20:27:08	LOaT	I don't think any other watches even have an FM radio :)
2016-03-05 20:28:02	@kido	it seems that FM Radio is device specific on android so no standard and the only way to get it would be to reverse engineer their apk
2016-03-05 20:28:46	@kido	yep I've never heard about FM radio on any other watch
2016-03-05 20:30:08	LOaT	You'd think they would be smart enough to not reinvent the wheel, fm is so so mundane, it seems like it should be just a drop-in blob of code for it. It's not like fm is gonna be the next killer app they have to keep secret
2016-03-05 20:30:39	TheAppleMan	Hmm... The battery improvements might be a bad thing. I'll forget to charge it and it'll die during a day :(
2016-03-05 20:31:17	@kido	I'm not sure what to think. it *might* be possible to run asteroid on the motoactv if the vendor specific part are not too dependant on gingerbread and if we manage to recompile some parts of a kitkat aosp with the android_device_motorola_G2 repo
2016-03-05 20:31:47	@kido	but it definitely won't be the easiest port to do
2016-03-05 20:32:14	@kido	TheAppleMan: well if you forget to charge it it's not that bad :)
2016-03-05 20:34:22	TheAppleMan	Well it does look cool
2016-03-05 20:34:24	@kido	AndChat|100464: did you receive my two answers ?
2016-03-05 20:34:36	@kido	TheAppleMan: the alarmclock?
2016-03-05 20:35:01	TheAppleMan	No I meant the watch when it's off
2016-03-05 20:35:10	@kido	oh ok :)
2016-03-05 20:35:35	AndChat|100464	It sounds like I need to find a replacement cable for my spare watch and see what's possible.
2016-03-05 20:35:38	@kido	I also improved the round screens support of asteroid-settings
2016-03-05 20:37:24	@kido	AndChat|100464: great! I don't put too much hope on it though, the proprietary drivers might be incompatible with the newer version of hwcomposer
2016-03-05 20:38:28	AndChat|100464	Anyone got a buddy at Motorola that can donate the source code? :)
2016-03-05 20:39:03	@kido	ahah sadly no
2016-03-05 20:39:50	AndChat|100464	thanks for the help. when I have the watch running, I'll give it a go. Worst thing to happen will be I still have spare parts for the watch on my wrist lol
2016-03-05 20:40:35	@kido	cool! :D keep us updated
