Well, a hardware failure doesn't have to mean a permanent hardware failure. Temperature, ionizing radiation, a voltage spike... can cause a bad state in one chip, so don't be worried so soon

Still, it have been happening more then once lately.

OK, I got into this condition (CPU meter pegged after minutes of idle after reboot) and it kept happening after several reboots, into both connected and flight modes (WiFi, no other connections).

So after the MCE-reset & Control-Panel-Display-Settings-reset, I went back to ASUI settings and toggled the CPU-meter setting. Now the CPU meter is pegged at zero; it never shows CPU activity. It is properly showing battery level and drain/charge status.

Installed it for the first time earlier today, thanks for all the hard work! Some things I'd like to see:

an option to have the the lock code entry widget in phone-stule layout (1 2 3 on top) like the original. My finger memory is very confused right now ;-)
display of IPv6 along with IPv4 address
tracking of GPS activation/de-activation in the battery graph

I also found these:

Code:

(13:40 was the installation time) but nothing since (and I rebooted just to make sure no nasty surprises await) so I'm not too worried about it.

Added to the TODO page for next release. Really busy right now but hoping to start working on next release in a couple weeks as there are a bunch of issues that are bothering me.

This is already on the list, if you can tell me how to get the IP, and will test it (I don't have ipv6), then I can get it added in the next release.

The code for this is already in place, just waiting on code to detect the GPS state. I've written down some notes on the TODO page but haven't looked into any of them yet.

Made a note of it on the TODO page. You'll be able to tell if ASUI crashes because the battery graph history will be cleared, it rarely happens though, for me at least.

Hm, I see you're getting the v4 one from icd2 via dbus. I don't think that'll work with v6 (it's usually auto-configured at kernel level so icd2 isn't involved), but you could grab it from /proc/net/if_inet6 like ifconfig does (ignoring any addresses beginning with "fe80", those are link-local)

I think the SIGABRT ones at least were just an installation-time thing. My syslog shows a bunch of

Code:

DSME: process '/usr/bin/advanced-systemui' with pid 25795 exited with signal: 6
DSME: process '/usr/bin/advanced-systemui' exited and restarted with pid 25799

terminating with

Code:

DSME: '/usr/bin/advanced-systemui' spawning too fast, stop trying

No trace of the two SIGSEGV ones though. The only log entry at 13:47 was

Code:

hildon-desktop[20075]: GLIB WARNING ** default - Application ASUI Settings did not provide valid .desktop file

New test binaries for ASUI and asui-settings containing a setting under device lock to invert the keypad. It defaults to systemui-style(phone) so anyone who wants the original ASUI-style(calculator) will need to change it.

To download and install:

Code:

asui dt;asui it;asui ds;asui is

Edit: Running 'asui uu' will install a new copy of the convenience script and the above test can be installed with 'asui dit;asui dis'.

Phone-style lock keypad looks good, thanks!

I think I just ran into this:

only I didn't have to kill it - I plugged the charger in, saw some notifications flash quickly and hildon-desktop died on its own. I didn't have the microsd in so no core dump / syslog, sorry :-( The other status bar applets are presence, wifi and statusbar clock.

+1 on that, and the same applies to GPS and openssh.

Actually, I would prefer it if flight mode did not switch the openssh service off at all (I might want to ssh to localhost, or over USB for example).

Eh? The bluetooth + flight mode problem was fixed in a previous release, it will come back on when exiting flight mode. ASUI doesn't have any code to handle GPS so you'll have to blame Nokia if it doesn't come back on when exiting flight mode. And ASUI doesn't stop SSH when entering flight mode, unless you long press it. If SSH doesn't work then its a problem in the network stack.
