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

The new update is out, changelog in the first post.

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

Thanks for all your efforts.

For me it says
"Unable to update 'Maemo 5 Community SSU Package(thumb)'
Conflict with application packages: hildon-thumbnail (3.0.51+0m5)"

What to do? Note: I didn't upgrade to the CSSU Testing 8.2 but instead waited for the new CSSU Thumb. Maybe that's the reason?

Cheers and thanks!

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

For me it says "Unable to download 'Maemo 5 Community SSU Package(thumb)'.Application package not found,"

I actually downgraded to thumb version few days back.

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

yeah, sorry, missed some package dependencies in the -mp thingie, should be fixed now

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

Update went ok.
2,53mb less on board ;)

Thanks!

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

Hmm, why did you do that? Any particular reason, besides the obvious (memory usage and performance)?

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

of course performance, i feel comfortable with thumb version :-)

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

Updated to latest CSSU-thumb without any problem. Great work freemangordon. CSSU-Thumb gives N900 a new life. Very smooth.

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

doe this fix/avoid the reported issue with ringtones not playing back or playing incorrectly in latest testing release?

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

the version of pulseaudio which brought problems in CSSU-T is in CSSU-thumb for 6 months or something

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

done update all (T8.2+thumb1, enabler and lock applet). all appeared to go ok. rebooted automatically but no orientation lock applet present. had to reinstall from ham

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

Thanks! Just wanted to say that it works now, like charm!

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

Yeah, that is the new CSSU-T policy for the orientation lock applet

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

ok. thanks for clearing that up. Nothing really to report so far, update seems fine.

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

Updated, worked like a charm

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

I did the update but the mobile does not open.why?

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

Would you rephrase as I don't understand what the problem is.

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

upgraded and phone didn't boot
I've allready reflashed with backupmenu so I don't know what the problem was
I'll wait to reupgrade

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

i didn't faced this problem. even this time i don't have KP installed.

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

Maybe someone already asked it, but I couldn't find an answer... I have CSSU Stable, can I install CSSU testing + thumb?

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

Yes.

ten chars

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

I had a similar problem with the upgrade, but my device booted. The window to enter the password was odly aligned to the top instead of the common aligment to the bottom and then most of the items in the applet menu were missing (same as when hildon-status-something crashes, that only a safe set of applets are loaded). Some icons were missing, and apt didn't work (I got a NFS stale handler for /var/cache/apt/pkgsources.bin, even after restarting again). Also the first time it booted I didn't get the message about upgrade successful. I restored the backup I wisely did with backup menu, tried again and all worked perfect.

I didn't know what happen in the first try, I guess maybe the phone was rebooted before completion (I wasn't paying attention to the phone while it was being upgrade). My phone also have some internal memory errors so I think it could be related to that.

Anyway, is working fine now! Thanks for another great update!

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

I notice that X terminal now affected by screen orientation (usually always in landscape mode), is it because the new update?
And may I ask who really want a portrait X terminal?

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

Anybody and everybody. I changed "Up" and "Down" shortcuts to "U" and "D", for compactness. And I use the smallest font size possible. Maybe, it's harsh on eyes, but it allows to get long lines of text in the screen, whatever the orientation. If you use large font, even landscape orientation is not wide enough.
You can edit transitions.ini to add X-Terminal to blacklist - list of apps which should never auto-rotate.
Best wishes.

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

You can bet on it.

Seems lots of devices are suffering from corrupted fs :( (See cssu-testing thread). Hopefully newer e2fsprogs will be included in the next update, along with fs check on bootup.

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

:eek: You (cssu) really don't like people's filesystems that much? Updated e2fsprogs would be nice (IIRC, I've suggested it over a year ago to CSSU), but AFAIK it *won't* fix all issues fsck have with flash medium.

Last time I checked fsck on boot was *reason* for most corruptions people were experiencing, not it's source. At least for me, after editing it out from every and each maemo's startup script where possible (some months ago), I haven't got single problem like that (except for situation when my device banged floor during heavy I/O operations, resulting in battery traveling opposite direction than device - but, that's to be expected, and even then, data loss wasn't serious - one config file and few thumbnails).

I just hope that this change will be painlessly revertible for users.

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

Wow...Sorry if I offend you, it's just I never though of using a portrait X-Terminal.
As you said, sometimes even a landscape orientation is not enough. So if I really need to edit a very long file, I will just do it on my pc.

Also, transition.ini already contain this line (I don't know if this is the default CSSU transition.ini, but I never edit this file):
But X-Terminal still rotate.
I have to add this line to osso-xterm.desktop, to make X-Terminal autorotation stop:

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

Yeah, our hate is driving us, no doubt.

Sure it won't, but it will be way better than current situation where I have to boot into rescueos and run e2fskc from there, as stock is refusing to fix my /home. Happened twice for the last month, without a particular reason. I guess corruption gets added through time to the point the broken /home fs prevents normal bootup. So, IMO it is better to have e2fsck (upstream version) run on every boot, than a bootloop on every system upgrade because of a corrupted fs(before upgrade).

Sure, stock e2fsck has its bugs. But saying that it corrupts a healthy fs is nonsense. Rather it is unable to correctly fix the already corrupted fs.

BTW ubuntu LTS' e2fsprogs is in cssu-devel for a couple of weeks, do you have it installed on your device? Because I have it, along with enabled fsck on every boot. No problems since I did that.

The same way you can "painlessly" enable fsck on every boot now. Via /etc/default/mount-opts-overwrite.

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

Would just like to say thank you for all the hard work and keeping this IMO still one of the best devices out there. I also have the new HTC One but the N900 is still the device people are impressed with even with the low screen resolution and relatively large screen size

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

That's true, if...

...which is absolutely OK. I interpreted your info about "fsck on every boot" as indication, that quoted mechanism is going to change (again) in next release. I see, now, that you rather mean making fsck'ing with correct e2fsprogs as default action, with same way of controlling it as in current release. It sounds like best of "both worlds".

I never said that, but if you got it this way, I might have used wrong words. Of course it wasn't affecting healthy filesystem (and was even able to fix minor things like group mismatchs - segfaulted on more serious tasks, "only").

Nah, I don't have guts to install cssu-devel on my everyday device, and no time to play with spare ones, lately (hardware modif. eats my rare bits of free time, nowadays). It's good to hear that it works fine, nevertheless.

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

Hey all

I did the upgrade to the latest cssu-thumb from the one before and it killed my N900, won't boot.

Having to do a reflash tonight. :eek:
--

EDIT

After a rootfs reflash, the upgrade went smooth, flashed KP52 afterwards.

:)

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

Pretty much the same thing happened to my device. It boots but lots of files in /home can't be read and are now 'Stale NFS handles'.

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

I also did the upgrade and everythign went fine.
AH no, you are right, as i was connected to power supply and i let the keyboard open when it did reboot, i got it doing a boot loop.

But once cable removed, keyboard closed and start it properly, everythign went fine.

And i can get my mail from gmail!!! I didn't care enough (or was i lazy? :) ) to solve it myself using the deb provided in CSSU test thread.

Thks a lot freemangordon to port CSSU test in thumb.

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

upgrade went fine! Tnx again for new version ;)

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

Probably a crash during update.

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

Thanks a lot. Upgrade went fine here.

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

Hi tried again to do the update through HAM
I only get a black screen after the update any suggestion

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

Same here. I get black screen too after updating through HAM. Could it be related to kp52 I installed some weeks ago ? I never booted on it though.

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

I also have kernel power 52 and using it without prblem all the time

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

Mine would not boot after update, reflashed kp52 kernel and now it works again.
