Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900

I think you mean fsck, not fsk. That is a normal file system check and is expected on the first reboot after an OS update. So is trackerd and hildon-thumbnailerd, reindexing your media database. Let them run to completion, it should be OK after that.

Your folders will look empty while fsck is running because the file system is unmounted. That is normal.

As for the rotation lock, there is a setting for it in System -> Settings, if I remember correctly. Sorry, my N900 runs Thumb but is heavily modified and cannot be used as a reliable reference.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900

rotation lock is a seperate app installable from application manager

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900

@pichlo
I guessed the same. but it happens every reboot.

About the rotation:
rotation is now active for everything. It used to be just for apps.
I will research more about it.

The fsck version of the N900 is old. The file system check from a recent PC could give successful results to your MyDocs partition. You might try to install backupmenu. Boot into backupmenu, export the partitions to the PC and try a filesystem check from the PC.

In CSSU is updated dosfstools package which contains fsck.vfat

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900

This solved the rotation of the Desktop issue (was quite annoying):
https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...72&postcount=4

I manually started fsck but it did not find any errors.
Just did a fresh reboot but still the issue remains.
Are there any log files that could help with the issue?
Or is there a file I can edit so the result of fsck is logged somewhere?

hmm fsck.log has sometimes entries about a unclean unmount and data corruption. But not every reboot.
And one fsck was stopped by signal 15 (google did not help with that one).

So I guess something got corrupted during the thumb installation.

EDIT: last two reboots no corruption listed in the log.
I also checked if the access rights to MyDocs are read only but everything is fine.

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_signal#POSIX_signals (see table at the bottom of "POSIX signals" section, column "Portable number"), signal with code 15 is simple SIGTERM, this name might be more familiar for you (or give you more google results).

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900

Thx. Strange that fsck received a SIGTERM, I just let the phone sit there till the CPU load is gone. But it happened just once.

Is it save to plugin the Phone to my Computer and have gparted check the filesystem for me?

Could it be that shutdowns are not clean? When I do a shutdown manually while charging the phone switches on again and the loading screen is shown. After that it just switches of. Then if I reboot manually the fcsk finds the above mentioned errors.
No errors in in the log if the phone is not plugged in during shutdown and then bootet.
Why does the phone "think" thumb was newly installed after each reboot? Is the index lost? Could it be that there is some problem with the rights management of folders?

EDIT:
I searched the forums for input so this might help. My etc/profile, etc/default/mount-opts and etc/fstab:

I read that umask=022 in profile can cause problems. Is that true?
