Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
I'm getting the connect to PC Suite error.
Under the Problems heading it says there's a conflict with Linux kernel for Community SSU (boot image for u-boot...) - can't read after that. There's two more packages that are being updated at the same time as Cssu Package (thumb)21.2011.38-1maemo4-thumb10:
None of these packages can be installed due to the conflict. Oh and I'm using HAM. Edit: this is an upgrade from the previous Cssu-thumb. |

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
Merlin1991 thanks for the tip. It did the trick. Should I install again the image fo u-boot?

i am not able to move widgets now.. o.O
i resolved it with cssu tuner :) |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
Kernel-power-settings working on cssu thumb10, I install it by dpkg with no dependencies, but after it I can't install any apps by apt-get because it wants install rest of kernel-power (I can do it by apt-get install -f). Any way to remove dependencies from kernel-power-settings ?
OFFTOPIC: small apt-get install list Quote:

@freemangordon, why kernel-cssu-flasher is still contain “Nokia Kernel” shortcut?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
I've reflashed my N900 and installed CSSU-T and the Thumb.
Now I face problems with my multiple alarms. The first one rings, but if I sleep to hard and I don't hear it, the second or third alarm don't make any sound. Anyone got a hint? on the other hand, I didn't face any other issues with the thumb compiled packages. Makes the N900 even more smoother and faster. really great packages! Thanks and keep up that awesome work. //EDIT: BTW, what's the proper version of pulseaudio to use nowadays? could someone link me? |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
freemangordon, huge, HUGE thanks for that. This very thing + research and ideas about root NAND that followed it are definitely a breakthrough (saying it's milestone, would be too low).
What do experts thing about concept of moving everything we can from rootfs to optfs - leaving only small thing requirements for NOLO if needed - then, using rest of ~256 MB NAND space for *uncompressed* UBIFS (for retaining wear-leveling and such things) for swap? This way, we could use ramzswap as 1st priority swap, then ~256 MB of very fast NAND as 2nd, and finally, swap on microSD as 3th one. Sounds, like it could bring impressive benefits to speed under heavy memory load. The only thing I'm not sure about, is NAND lifetime for write cycles, even when using ubifs wear-leveling. Is it much lower/higher/same as for eMMC? I've already killed two (cheap and definitely not genuine) 8GB class 2 microSD "SanDisk" cards, due to EOL of write cycles - I would like to spare non-replaceable NAND such fate. Thoughts? Comments? /Estel |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
..and can't we 'hack' nolo a bit? Somebody already found the bootlogo; so with a bit of (dis)assembly...
|
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
@don_falcone, what exactly do you mean by 'hacking'? 'Cause I don't see any reasons for hacking nolo, everything can be done with recompiling kernel and/or u-boot.
|
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
You mean bootsequence as in: NoLo->uBoot+kp->kernel-bootimg-whatever?
Moving rootfs to (a separate partition) on emmc wouldn't need hacking NoLo, right? |

So, i would further support Estel's question / request for feasibility then.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
You can copy all files from rootfs to mmcblk0p2, recompile kernel with integrated ext* filesystems support (or create an initrd with corresponding modules), edit cmdline to boot from /dev/mmcblk0p2 (1p2 if you have SD card) either by recompiling or with u-boot, and it should work.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
@michaaa62
If you try the upgrade using the stock Application Manager (HAM), do you get a similar error to that which I had in my post earlier on? Merlin1991's reply fixed it for me. I'm not sure if I'm correct here, perhaps others can confirm/deny, but I'm sure I read MAG say ages ago that the recommended upgrade mechanism for CSSU is the HAM. |

As an aside I did a search and found a mtdswap.ko module on my n9; a quick look at the link he gave reveals the author to be a nokia developer who probably wrote the module for Harmattan and eventually it was integrated into the mainline. |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
@michaaa62 - I have NFC how did you manage to do it, but it seems you don't have mp-fremantle-community-pr installed at all. If you get xterm somehow, doing:
apt-get install mp-fremantle-community-pr should restore your system in a consistent state. @mrsellout: it was not only MAG to state that HAM should be used, the problem is noone seems to care |

Ideally NOLO could/would be replaced by U-Boot so that the whole NAND flash chip (i.e. including the partitions for kernel, oops, initrd, etc.) could be available for other tasks. I'd be happy if we could create a ready-to-flash image with rootfs on an (appropriately sized) ext2 partition (/, /boot, /usr, etc.) of the eMMC and a separate /home (ext3 or ext4) partition. The current rootfs partition on the NAND could be either used as swap, or as a sort of "executable cache" (like SSD/HDD hybrid -> NAND/eMMC), or just left empty. Obviously this would mean that the whole THUMB2 issue would be rendered moot (space would not be a problem anymore). Perhaps more important (but also more difficult) would be a HARDFP recompilation of the whole of Maemo :) |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
This. But it would not even have to be ready-to-flash, because we alter it anyway. Just some script that does the whole conversion / move after flashing.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
i flashed my N900 today. installed kp50 and some useful app i need. i want cssu now. will it be okay if now i install cssu thumb.?

Also, we don't have much of a problem wrt storage of apps on rootfs. The real problem is RAM, and thumb2 hopefully reduces in-memory process size. |

Otherwise you should open xterm and as root do: apt-get install --reinstall kernel-cssu-flasher |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
but this is not recognized by cleven and other apps that depend on kernel power. so no i have kp50 installed. now i will install cssu thumb and after installing that i will --- apt-get install --reinstall kernel-cssu-flasher. am i right?

we noobs are not understanding it. rather than telling us to read the first post y dont you just tell it here. i read the first post thrice. dint get the answer. once i installed thumb and then kp50. device rebooted. then i flashed and install kp50 again. afraid to do anythng else. jst making sure what to do. since u know all these things.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
1. Install CSSU-Testing. (by updating through HAM or FAM)
2. Install CSSU-Thumb. (by updating through HAM or FAM) 3. Bugs, problems? Post them here. Little manual for everyone. :D |

I opened that thread with the idea of having some helping hands, testers, etc. Not as some "linux entry level" course. How do you think, which is better: me, hanging here trying to help ONLY YOU, or me hanging in front of QtCreator, ScratchBox, whatever the current development environment I am using is, doing stuff that (hopefully) will make lots more people (including you) have a better stuff on their devices. See, I would really beg you to either read, self educate and help yourself, or to not touch this stuff until (and if) it is announced to be out of its experimental phase. Thanks for your understanding. |

Also it is probably best if people use backupmenu before each update of what is experimental software. |

Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
Well, FAM worked for me pretty fine with upgrading mp-community-fremantle-pr only. For CSSU-Testing and for CSSU-Thumb.
As FAM and HAM are only GUIs for apt-get, there's no real difference between them. (only that FAM is better, when HAM reboots system after upgrade). So there's no point in choosing HAM or FAM. If you have kp50 (no u-boot), kernel-cssu-flasher. If you do have u-boot, you'll have to work with booting of the kernel-cssu-bootimg (or there's already working image, i don't know.) |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] CSSU-thumb thread - stable Thumb2 on N900
right now i only have kp50. no u-boot at this very moment. i want to install cssu thumb safely without kernel crashing or phone rebooting.
