MAH69KHello! If I found error in package description (misprints in keywords) - how i can report about this?04:27
OksanaaMAH69K : Which package?05:46
OksanaaYou can find its maintainer and email him/her. Hopefully, maintainer will receive email, and respond with an update.05:47
Oksanaahttp://maemo.org/packages/05:47
sixwheeledbeastEvery package "should" have a bugtracker link.09:23
KotCzarnyemail to maintainer is the best in the end09:23
sixwheeledbeastbugtracker is maintainers preferred contact details for bugs: email, tmo link, garage, bug tracking software, git whatever.09:29
sixwheeledbeastits preferred that bugtracker links are not email (unless small pkgs) so that other people could help with maintenance or a group can work on a project for example.09:31
WikiwideIs N900 display 800x480 or 854x480? Just trying to figure out if it's possible to replace it with a e-ink display.15:19
VajbI think it is 800x48015:20
Wizzupyes, it is15:21
WikiwideHow do I know whether the connector is compatible?15:22
Wikiwidehttps://www.ebay.com/itm/4-3-800x480-ED043WC1-ED043WC1-LF-E-Ink-LCD-Screen-Display-Panel-Replacement-/272901042939 A tad larger than N900's 3.5in15:22
Wikiwide/me is not sure whether it's actually e-ink or not15:23
KotCzarnyfor eink you need few weird voltages15:37
KotCzarnyso definitely that part alone isnt going to work15:37
Hurrianoh and you'll also need at least a display that speaks MIPI DSI15:38
ff_I was thinking about second screen in N900 like https://www.waveshare.com/2.9inch-e-paper-module.htm and talk to it throuh SPI, but found better option for me. LCD in N900 is transflective.20:16
KotCzarnythat transflective is good only for emergency20:58
KotCzarnynot good for comfortable reading20:58
Vajbdoes transreflective mean that it is readable if some light comes to the screen from fitting angle?21:25
KotCzarnyyes21:26
KotCzarnybut it's very faint21:26
VajbI think I have noticed that on bright sun light21:31
VajbI guess it is not easy to shutdown n900 backlight21:32
KotCzarnybacklight applet has an option for 0 brighness21:32
KotCzarny*brightness21:33
VajbI have simple brightness applet and it doesn't habe zero as option21:38
Vajbhave*21:38
KotCzarnyi think it's in the options to enable 021:39
Vajbwhere those options would be?21:43
KotCzarnymaybe in control panel?21:43
Vajbnot that i can find them there at least21:44
Vajbi can open display settings from applet menu (the same that lays in system settings), but there is no such thing21:45
KotCzarnyhmm, maybe i was thinking about n800's applet21:45
ff_as root echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/acx565akm/bl_power ; sleep 2 ; echo 0 > /sys/class/backlight/acx565akm/bl_power22:05
ff_black background with white 18 bold font is nice with some daily light, but when reflective plastic will be changed with white paper, maybe it will be nicer22:12
ff_need to check it out22:13
