persiaHow did your aattempt to port the kernel go?11:13
lilstevieoh that was done long ago :p11:15
lilstevieit is fixing up the new kernel11:15
lilstevieI am still fighting the bug :/11:15
persiaFor the Galaxy?11:15
lilsteviebut I think it may have been evdev that was acting retarded, it was the natty alpha image and i didnt realize11:16
lilsteviegalaxy tab yeah11:16
persiaOh, cool11:16
persiaDo you have time this ewvening to work on getting a package in for oneiric?11:17
lilstevieyeah, just let me put the washing away :)11:17

lilstevie:)11:20

persialilstevie: I Have to head away for a bit, but I'll be back shortly.12:18
lilsteviepersia: kk, well I will be up most of the night12:19
lilstevienatty final preinstall seems to be a bit better overall12:20
persialilstevie: Oh, excellent.12:50
persiaso, for packaging it, Let's start from the linux-n900 source.12:52
lilsteviepersia: I will have to go with the how for now :) this is still being a pain, the new evdev doesn't like my touch driver at all :/12:53
* lilstevie is starting to wonder why he even bothered changing to the new kernel12:54
persiaOh, annoying.12:55
persiaSo, how works like this:12:55
persia1) get your kernel working12:56
persia2) stuff the source into a package with deba12:56
persiaerr, debian.flavour/ and debian/ (look at linux-n900 for an example)12:57
lilstevieok12:57
persia3) Build, and fiddle the flavour bits until the result is clean12:57
persia4) upload12:58
lilstevieupload anywhere specific?12:58
persiaNo :)  Theoretically to Ubuntu, but since you still need a sponsor, anywhere from which the sponsor can pull for review works.12:59
lilstevieheh :)13:00
persiaThe sponsor will need the .dsc and tar.gz files.13:00
lilstevieok cool13:00
persiaBut13:02
persiaBut step 1 is the most important :)13:03
lilstevieheh yeah I am wokring on solving these issues13:04
lilstevieblah, this should be working14:16
persiaWhat doesn't work?14:20
lilstevieevdev14:20
lilsteviemy beautiful touchscreen patch is not working like it should14:21
persiaDo you get propertties to xinput, or can you just not see the events in the first place?14:22
lilsteviethe cursor isnt moving14:23
lilsteviebut everything is as it should be with evtest14:23
persiaRight.  Does xinput --list-props show it as a mouse?14:23
persiaIf evtest has the right output, the kernel stuff is very likely correct.14:24
lilstevieheh it shoud be, it is the same result that I was getting under maverick14:25
persiaThere wqas a bunch of touch stuff done for natty: I suspect that the issue is that it *is* being detected as touch.14:27
lilstevieit is detected as a touch screen14:28
lilstevielike it was under evdev in maverick14:28
lilsteviecause it is a touch screen :p14:28
persiaAnd then it gets caught in the touch handler, and ends up not working like a mouse.14:28
persiaWhich makes the pointer not move :)14:29
lilstevieheh14:29
persiaSo, My recommendartion would be to get the satck into the archive, file a bug.14:30
persiaThen we can bug the touch folks to eplain the stack and help us fix the bug :)14:30
lilstevieI will talk to chase again I think14:31
lilsteviethis touch driver wouldn't even work if it wasn't for the touch team :D14:31
persiacnd is definitely the right person :)14:32
persiaGood luck.14:33
lilsteviethey helped me figure out what i needed to do months ago :p14:33
lilsteviewhen maverick was current14:33
lilstevieheh, chase has been a great help with everything, natty is the problem here though :(14:33
persiaI don't knmow if we can fix natty, but oneiric is a real possibility.14:34
lilstevieheh14:35
lilsteviebiggest thing is to find out what is broken :)14:35
