2016-06-22 02:19:40	@kido	hi gh16ito 
2016-06-22 02:20:27	gh16ito	o/
2016-06-22 02:21:18	@kido	interested in asteroid? :D
2016-06-22 02:21:54	gh16ito	Been thinking about getting a smartwatch. I was looking at Pebble but they're locked down, doesn't seem like there's a root, plus they have a propietary charger.
2016-06-22 02:22:17	@kido	indeed, you can't hack much with the pebble
2016-06-22 02:22:23	gh16ito	I dunno if I can do an LCD watch, though.
2016-06-22 02:22:33	@kido	although their bluetooth protocol is open
2016-06-22 02:22:51	gh16ito	My understanding is they keep the battery from dying with a "shake-and-wake" type thing.
2016-06-22 02:24:01	gh16ito	I'd rather have an always-on solution. Really hard to know whether that sort of thing would work without actually trying one.
2016-06-22 02:24:40	@kido	indeed, it eats the battery pretty quickly
2016-06-22 02:26:30	gh16ito	Asteroid is a bottom-up OS, or is it a flavor of Android?
2016-06-22 02:27:53	@kido	it's definitely not a flavor of android but it reuses some drivers from android
2016-06-22 02:28:16	gh16ito	That's nice.
2016-06-22 02:28:23	@kido	so there is a minimal /system/ directory from android which ships the drivers, the rest is a more or less standard embedded GNU/Linux system
2016-06-22 02:28:35	@kido	it's much closer to SailfishOS than android
2016-06-22 02:29:06	@kido	be careful it's still in development though, this is not really usable on a daily basis
2016-06-22 02:29:07	gh16ito	Well, for now I don't think I can deal with a non-e-ink screen and I don't think I'm going to be buying a locked down watch, so I guess I'm SOL.
2016-06-22 02:29:15	gh16ito	Been looking for a good watch - smart or otherwise - for YEARS.
2016-06-22 02:29:24	gh16ito	Guess a few more years couldn't hurt.
2016-06-22 02:29:26	@kido	ahah yes I can understand :)
2016-06-22 02:29:45	@kido	the products will probably mature
2016-06-22 02:30:10	gh16ito	Yeah. If anyone brings out an e-ink Android device, it'll probably make hacking much easier.
2016-06-22 02:31:10	gh16ito	OK, well, I'm off to do some other stuff. Best of luck with the project. I'll check in on it when there exists some good hardware to run it on ;)
2016-06-22 02:31:40	@kido	cool, have a nice day and see you in some months/years!
2016-06-22 18:36:26	@kido	hey Lrs121 
2016-06-22 18:36:49	@kido	what's up?
2016-06-22 18:37:07	Lrs121	no much at the moment
2016-06-22 18:37:22	@kido	:)
2016-06-22 18:39:49	Lrs121	Ive run into an issue while trying to bitbake the asteroid image. The error is, libhybris was skipped: incompatible with machine sparrow.
2016-06-22 18:39:52	@kido	I'm trying to bring a more "flat" UI to asteroid, what do you think http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1466538908.png I don't know what to think since it looks better than the current white background but might be a bit too flashy
2016-06-22 18:40:42	@kido	in src/meta-asteroid/recipes-core/libhybris/libhybris_git.bbappend add COMPATIBLE_MACHINE_sparrow = "(^sparrow$)" at line 6
2016-06-22 18:40:49	@kido	and it will build
2016-06-22 18:44:16	Lrs121	thank you. I do like a more flat design, it seems closer to flat paper like design Google recommends for android
2016-06-22 18:44:33	Lrs121	making it more consisant across platforms
2016-06-22 18:45:39	@kido	:) I try not to make it look to much like material design in order to stay a bit different from android wear
2016-06-22 18:45:53	@kido	although I like their guidelines
2016-06-22 18:49:17	Lrs121	Makes sense, the uniqueness of asteroid is a good thing.
2016-06-22 18:50:52	@kido	anyway, thanks for your opinion ! does hybris build with this new line ?
2016-06-22 18:53:23	Lrs121	Yes it made it through, its fetching binutils, glibc, openssl, etc. right now
2016-06-22 18:54:26	@kido	good, tell me how it goes !
2016-06-22 18:55:46	Asara	woooo welcome Lrs121
2016-06-22 18:57:13	Lrs121	Hello Asara
2016-06-22 19:00:33	Asara	how goes it?
2016-06-22 19:02:12	Asara	kido: do you know anywhere you think i oculd get help with make_ext4fs?
2016-06-22 19:03:09	@kido	Asara: mhh no, it's a tool from android. Maybe  you could try to get a newer version of this tool from latest AOSP's repositories
2016-06-22 19:10:02	Asara	so i've tried compiling it from a few different versions of AOSP
2016-06-22 19:10:11	Asara	th problem is each version has differnt requirmeents as to wehre it is pulling files from
2016-06-22 19:10:16	Asara	i.e. some things are in core, extras etc etc.
2016-06-22 19:10:19	Asara	libsparse
2016-06-22 19:10:33	Asara	but between versions there is no cohesive way of knowing what is required from where
2016-06-22 19:25:16	@kido	yes that's the joy of the android's build system
2016-06-22 19:25:28	@kido	it will make you love openembedded
2016-06-22 19:30:13	Lrs121	its the same for newer versions of adb and fastboot.
2016-06-22 19:31:35	Lrs121	kiddo: something occured to me, do i need to modify the init.rc in the device tree?
2016-06-22 19:33:42	@kido	by device tree you mean meta-sparrow-hybris right?
2016-06-22 19:33:48	Lrs121	correct
2016-06-22 19:34:32	@kido	https://github.com/Lrs121/meta-sparrow-hybris/blob/master/recipes-android/android-init/android-init/init.rc#L7 well you can comment the lines which change CPU and GPU freq
2016-06-22 19:34:47	@kido	and low power mode too
2016-06-22 19:35:12	@kido	it shouldn't be an issue but it will just allow you to change that as you want later
2016-06-22 19:35:19	@kido	the rest is needed
2016-06-22 19:37:03	Lrs121	alright, ill look into it here soon
2016-06-22 20:25:22	Asara	kido: I am going to have to give up on this ext4fs shit
2016-06-22 20:26:20	@kido	I understand
2016-06-22 20:26:48	@kido	anyway, there are other more exciting things to do
2016-06-22 20:28:20	Asara	I guess
2016-06-22 22:02:06	Lrs121	looks like bitbake failed at the kernel. Ill check the defconfig but i wont be able to check what the real issue is till i get home and have an actual terminal window
2016-06-22 22:06:19	@kido	ok send me the error once you get it, it's often a matter of a simple patch
2016-06-22 22:16:08	Lrs121	will do
