Jul 20 06:50:47 D= Jul 20 06:52:55 colinl: http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail//maemo-developers/2007-February/007770.html and http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2007-April/009994.html Jul 20 06:53:33 thanks a bunch, zuh :) Jul 20 06:54:58 I see that it's not very power-consumption-friendly, though. Jul 20 06:55:05 I'll play with that, thanks :) Jul 20 07:18:17 unique311: and they like to fuck too ! Jul 20 07:30:51 hi guys Jul 20 07:30:51 !list Jul 20 07:36:09 Morning, all Jul 20 07:50:56 morning, anyone known dbus methods of com.nokia.mediaplayer service? Jul 20 08:46:00 so, what news sites should a maemo dev read for product feedback? Jul 20 08:54:37 timelE61i: itt forums? Jul 20 08:59:59 I'm having trouble with my 770 using DHCP... it's configured to use DHCP, but it thinks it's been assigned a weird IP (169.254.217.203) and has no default route or DNS info Jul 20 09:01:11 That address is an auto assigned one when there's no dhcp server Jul 20 09:01:17 it's worked with other networks using DHCP, but on my home network (wrt54g) it's acting up Jul 20 09:01:22 * lardman tries to remember the name Jul 20 09:01:47 DHCP definitely works on this network.. I've got 3 other machines connected, including the one I'm using right now Jul 20 09:01:48 zeroconf Jul 20 09:02:28 well it sounds as if your 770 isn't picking it up for whatever reason Jul 20 09:02:56 hmm... sorry, I'm a rookie... I see that zeroconf is networking software for the 770, but is it installed by default? how will I use it? Jul 20 09:03:02 (zeroconf or avahi/bonjour/whatever the name's changed to this week) Jul 20 09:03:09 I'm googling, but not turning up more than mentions of zeroconf right now Jul 20 09:03:27 You don;t want to use it, it just assigns one of those addresses Jul 20 09:03:40 ohhh Jul 20 09:03:57 If dhcp fails, it falls back to zeroconf Jul 20 09:04:26 fyi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeroconf Jul 20 09:04:37 hmm... don't think my router supports it... was just looking at the wikipedia page :) Jul 20 09:05:23 ah, perhaps it's not part of zeroconf, just part of IPv4. hmm. Anyway, it's the fall back. See why dhcp isn't working Jul 20 09:05:54 that's the trouble I'm having... does this thing come with xterm out of the box, or do I need to install it? sorry for the super-rookie quesiton Jul 20 09:06:06 you need to install it, look in the package manager Jul 20 09:06:12 okay, cool, thanks Jul 20 09:06:27 skirpee: on wrt54g sometimes the dhcp daemon dies.. Try rebooting your router.. Jul 20 09:06:59 X-Fade: this machine I'm on now is a laptop which connected via DHCP just a few mins ago... I think it's specific to my 770 Jul 20 09:07:38 Once it's assigned you an IP address it could then die Jul 20 09:08:09 without it affecting you (until your lease expires, and even then your laptop might ignore it - I don;t know enough about dhcp) Jul 20 09:08:25 possible, but unlikely... I've had this 770 for a couple of days now, and it's had this dhcp problem all along, I just haven't had a chance to start investigating til tonight Jul 20 09:08:39 ah, ok Jul 20 09:09:47 crap, how'm I gonna use the package manager to install bash w/o net access? :) Jul 20 09:09:55 er, xterm Jul 20 09:10:33 skirpee: what is your bluetooth hostname set to? Maybe you used chars that the dhcp doesn't like? Jul 20 09:11:02 hmm good point, checking Jul 20 09:14:08 tried changing it to something all-lowercase w/ no spaces, still won't connect on my local network, nor on my neighbor's open network Jul 20 09:14:22 o Jul 20 09:14:54 on the neighbor's network it seems to get an ip address and default route, but it thinks the router is also the DNS server Jul 20 09:16:01 tho doing a host google.com and then hitting that IP w/ the web browser still fails Jul 20 09:16:43 You could grab the .deb on your laptop and copy it over the usb link Jul 20 09:16:56 doing that now Jul 20 09:17:17 osso-xterm the way to go? Jul 20 09:17:17 Do you have a proxy? Jul 20 09:17:21 yep Jul 20 09:17:23 no proxy, nope Jul 20 09:18:45 ok Jul 20 09:19:58 good morning Jul 20 09:20:22 ok! I have an xterm running Jul 20 09:21:33 holy hell, there's a lot involved to get root Jul 20 09:22:23 all I had to do was installing the dropbear ssh server Jul 20 09:22:24 * sp3000 counts 4 high-level steps Jul 20 09:22:48 skirpee: As you have the usb cable, do the r&d mode thing Jul 20 09:23:02 working on it now Jul 20 09:23:02 e.g.: xterm, redpill, openssh, ssh away Jul 20 09:23:08 VladDrac: he doesn't have a network Jul 20 09:23:23 tho localhost ought not be affected I suppose Jul 20 09:23:47 xterm, flasher r&d mode....? Jul 20 09:24:43 ...would be another option Jul 20 09:24:49 though xterms tend to come from networks Jul 20 09:26:20 sp3000: I got xterm installed by copying from my network-connected laptop Jul 20 09:26:22 via usb Jul 20 09:26:36 ack... lardman, thanks for your help... I've got to get to bed, I have to be up for work tomorrow Jul 20 09:26:44 sure, not categorically :) Jul 20 09:27:01 I've got some instructions on installing the flasher, and once I'm root I'll start looking at why dhcp isn't working for me Jul 20 09:27:16 for now, I am crashing, I'm beat Jul 20 09:27:27 what's cras... oh, you are Jul 20 09:27:54 "dhcp fails, user crashes" Jul 20 09:31:16 lo Jul 20 09:31:45 any idea how to dump the bootloaders to mmc? Jul 20 09:35:54 blkhawk[work]: Why don't you just get them from the FIASCO image? Jul 20 09:36:05 blkhawk[work]: The flasher can extract them for you? Jul 20 10:22:32 hi all. Can I installed Skype on the N800 without upgrading to the latest firmware? Jul 20 10:22:55 rebroad: I don't think so, but I don't really know O:-) Jul 20 10:23:35 i think the latest firmware has some problems with battery management. ever since i upgraded the battery doesn't seem to last as long as before Jul 20 10:24:04 plus latest firmware breaks lcars theme... Jul 20 10:27:28 hmm. someone needs to write a little utility that lets you upgrade the firmware and easily re-import all your settings and installed apps.. Jul 20 10:33:46 battery seems fine to me, what have you installed? Jul 20 10:34:02 Or have you left the n800 allowed to autoconnect at will? Jul 20 10:34:48 just comparing the N800 with latest firmware compared with the one before latest Jul 20 10:35:29 vanilla? Oh, mine seems to have better battery life now, just an impression though Jul 20 10:36:10 the release notes did mention that battery management was improved, but to me it seems to have reduced the duration Jul 20 10:50:44 OWWW I missed a psion netbook pro auction that went for 202 euro on ebay Jul 20 10:56:18 does maemo come with md5sum? Jul 20 11:12:06 Nokia-N800-48:~# md5sum Jul 20 11:12:07 -sh: md5sum: not found Jul 20 11:17:51 i wonder if anyone has gotten a bluetooth gamepad controller working Jul 20 11:21:13 i wondered that the other day too Jul 20 11:21:19 I believe keesj has Jul 20 11:22:19 You know all someone would have to do is take-apart a BT gamepad and make a custom case that clamps around a pda (on left and right) Jul 20 11:23:39 So you could affix it to a n770, n800 or whatever Jul 20 13:29:29 Hi, is it my browser or are all the tutorial and howto pages on maemo.org screwd up? Jul 20 13:29:42 at least for the 770 Jul 20 13:30:26 Anyone know why inline asm labels require a b or f suffix indicating where the label lies? GCC's output doesn't have this, though the labels start with a . could this make a difference? Jul 20 13:31:13 rtcm: HowTos look ok to me Jul 20 13:31:52 as do tutorials Jul 20 13:32:14 on Firefox 2.0b1 WinXP Jul 20 13:32:35 lardman: do they have pictures and are all the command line examples shown? Jul 20 13:33:00 rtcm: Can you give me an example url? Jul 20 13:33:22 http://maemo.org/development/documentation/tutorials/Maemo_2.2_Tutorial.html Jul 20 13:33:23 rtcm: Yeah, the Maemo 2.0 ones were screwed for me the other day. Jul 20 13:33:50 besides, they have outdated instructions here and there Jul 20 13:33:57 should I file a bug somewhere? Jul 20 13:33:58 I see pictures Jul 20 13:34:27 commands look a little bad Jul 20 13:34:35 e.g. Start Scratchbox with the following command: Jul 20 13:34:40 ]]> Jul 20 13:34:46 Not sure that'll work very well ;) Jul 20 13:34:58 lardman: right, that's what I mean Jul 20 13:35:32 There are other problems with the markup, a bit further down there's a list and items 6 & 7 are all concatenated Jul 20 13:35:48 when the commands should be on seperate lines Jul 20 13:37:03 yhea, and like linking to a maemo 2.2 minimal rootstrap which doesn't contain the hildon libs etc. Jul 20 13:37:23 eventually I figured I needed some other "non-minimal" package Jul 20 13:37:29 and found it Jul 20 13:38:05 but it's not a smooth experience... Jul 20 13:38:39 but yes, it's a bug so you may as well file it, assuming there's not one already Jul 20 13:39:09 lardman: Yeah, if already filed one for that.. Jul 20 13:39:40 lardman: But we'll have to wait a few weeks as they are all on holiday during July.. Jul 20 13:39:59 X-Fade: Fair enough, just as long as there's one there so someone notices it Jul 20 13:40:17 Finland is closed in July due to holidays. Please come back later ;) Jul 20 13:40:21 Though it is a wiki, so we could always do it ourselves, or do we not have access? Jul 20 13:40:45 The UK is closed due to heavy rain and floods, nice summer Jul 20 13:40:51 No, that documentation is managed by the Nokia documentation team.. Jul 20 13:42:27 X-Fade: care to point me to a bug# ? Jul 20 13:54:50 lardman, hahah Jul 20 13:54:57 lardman, It's pissing it down! ^_^ Jul 20 13:55:14 it's stopped here, for 5 minutes at least Jul 20 13:56:34 Heh, lucky. Jul 20 13:56:45 It has mellowed to a dizzle at the moment. Jul 20 13:58:37 Heh, dizzle .. drizzle! Jul 20 13:58:54 rtcm: 1518, 1665,1666 Jul 20 13:59:36 sp3000 got a url for flushing document.write w/o finishing script execution? Jul 20 14:00:12 http://www.digittrade.de/ebay/gamepad/gamepad-1.jpg something like this, hacked to fit a 770/800 Jul 20 14:01:30 timelE61i: not offhand Jul 20 14:01:31 it'll start again here as I'm about to go outside ;) Jul 20 14:04:22 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2666&highlight=gamepad Jul 20 14:04:38 aha Bluetooth gamepad plus nokia - hacked with kbdd profile Jul 20 14:10:38 seems nice Jul 20 14:11:54 "The Chainpus BGP-100 runs on a single AAA battery and can last around 3 hours of continuous use." Jul 20 14:12:15 I'd definitely drop in an AA or two rechargeables instead Jul 20 14:13:05 <__Nikos__> i ping the n800 device on a local wireless network and i get times around 100ms...The ping on a laptop gives me times<1ms. Is it normal? Jul 20 14:13:32 i get 2-9ms Jul 20 14:13:43 nokia 770 Jul 20 14:15:32 <__Nikos__> pupnik: I try to delivel udp packets and i experience a hell of a drop packages...is there a way to boost the speed on the device? Jul 20 14:16:47 __Nikos__: 64 bytes from 192.168.1.149: icmp_seq=51 ttl=64 time=2.77 ms Jul 20 14:17:22 __Nikos__: I noticed the same too there is a lot of udp packet loss with the n800 you need to try and reduce the noise in your signal as much as you can Jul 20 14:17:54 the wireless card on the device is very bad Jul 20 14:18:38 <__Nikos__> zyxulnag1: can you have a wired connection with n800? Jul 20 14:19:04 If I do a 'ping -i 0.01 -c 1000 192.168.1.149' I get: Jul 20 14:19:05 don't think so Jul 20 14:19:08 1000 packets transmitted, 1000 received, 0% packet loss, time 8996ms Jul 20 14:19:08 rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 2.387/3.165/57.901/2.809 ms, pipe 5 Jul 20 14:19:28 as far as I know there is no way to go wired on the n800 Jul 20 14:19:33 you could with the n770 Jul 20 14:22:36 <__Nikos__> I am wondering how can the skype work so well Jul 20 14:23:01 they have some pretty cool algorithms that wrap over udp in skype Jul 20 14:23:07 so you don't feel the packet loss Jul 20 14:23:21 and I think skype also uses tcp in some cases but I am not sure Jul 20 14:34:06 <__Nikos__> when i run my app with ssh i have very low packet loss...when i run it on the device a experience a great loss??? Jul 20 14:34:55 that's impossible Jul 20 14:35:02 ssh uses tcp Jul 20 14:35:08 <__Nikos__> am i missing something? Jul 20 14:36:08 skype uses UDP mostly. It uses UDP to get around routers and firewalls. Jul 20 14:36:11 Does anyone know if gstreamer for maemo seek accurately within vbr mp3 files? Jul 20 14:36:13 maybe there's a hardware problem __Nikos__ Jul 20 14:36:40 Or at least that's what I thought. I might be wrong. I'm not sure if you could do the trickery with TCP/IP. Jul 20 14:37:10 <__Nikos__> pupnik: what is the difference between running with ssh or on the device? Jul 20 14:37:48 i don't have an n800. it just works for me. very slow scp transfers though Jul 20 14:38:02 slower than a floppy drive :/ Jul 20 14:39:37 <__Nikos__> pupnik: Either you launch an application through ssh or local xterm the app will run on the device Jul 20 14:41:15 lo Jul 20 14:41:18 i run a lot of stuff through ssh Jul 20 14:46:10 i should find a way to earn a living off opensource. Jul 20 14:46:35 what's http://maemo.org/downloads/product/ogg for? Jul 20 14:46:54 I installed it, but the media player still doesn't recognize oggs Jul 20 14:49:15 disq, 1. open source, 2. ???, 3. profit! Jul 20 14:50:17 hey Jul 20 14:50:27 Hmm, do I bother replying to maemo-users to explain why Ted Tso's almost always right? ;-) Jul 20 14:50:30 inz: very userfriendly.org of you Jul 20 14:50:45 not sure if this would be horribly annoying, and everyone will probably tell me to do it myself... Jul 20 14:51:00 but can someone compile frotz for IT2007HE? Jul 20 14:51:04 (the commandline version) Jul 20 14:51:14 yes, I know, there's GFrotz. I don't like it. Jul 20 14:51:20 * jpt9 likes Bluetooth keyboards :-) Jul 20 14:51:32 * jpt9 is using one right now with XChat on an n770 :-D Jul 20 14:51:56 which xchat runs on it2007he? Jul 20 14:52:03 it should be in the repos darnit Jul 20 14:52:06 dunno... Jul 20 14:52:18 it's either on maemo.org, linked to from maemo.org, or in the repos.... Jul 20 14:52:36 (or in one of the repos I've added from installing some other program. not sure) Jul 20 14:52:46 why? Jul 20 14:53:07 i don't think we have a command to search which repo supplies which package do we? Jul 20 14:53:14 there isn't... Jul 20 14:53:17 apt-cache show or policy doesn't, iirc Jul 20 14:53:18 there is a site, however... Jul 20 14:53:45 www.gronmayer.com/n800/repos/index.php?lang=en Jul 20 14:53:47 it' Jul 20 14:53:50 it's quite nice. Jul 20 14:54:05 wow, thanks! Jul 20 14:54:13 you're welcome, Jul 20 14:54:26 my brother told me about it, though; you'd probably want to thank him :-) Jul 20 14:55:02 anyway, can anyone compile frotz? Jul 20 14:55:19 lemme check Jul 20 14:55:29 thanks. Jul 20 14:56:00 i only have an it2006 environment, so you'll have to force the install Jul 20 14:56:04 oh. Jul 20 14:56:07 will it still run? Jul 20 14:56:14 yeah Jul 20 14:56:17 also, you can just send me a binary. Jul 20 14:56:30 (unless there's more to it...) Jul 20 14:56:45 (man this BT keyboard's awesome!) Jul 20 14:56:55 it actually makes IRC on an n770 practical. Jul 20 14:57:01 yes Jul 20 14:57:19 * jpt9 wants an n785 or something.... the case and design of the n770 with the improved specs of the n800 :-) Jul 20 14:57:36 yes re: there's more or yes re: just the binary? Jul 20 14:57:36 http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tapwrite/gfrotz_2.43.3_armel.deb?download Jul 20 14:57:37 try Jul 20 14:57:42 whoa. Jul 20 14:57:43 fast. Jul 20 14:58:15 opening in the browser now... Jul 20 14:58:58 wget works too Jul 20 14:59:04 except that's gfrotz... Jul 20 14:59:15 (at least according to the app manager) Jul 20 14:59:25 hasn't finished installing yet... Jul 20 14:59:51 nice - you can pick the menu Jul 20 15:00:06 yeah... that's gfrotz. i wanted frotz (the plain command-line version). Jul 20 15:00:37 ever play A Mind Forever Voyaging? Jul 20 15:00:46 a bit. Jul 20 15:00:48 quite fun. Jul 20 15:00:53 my favorite ever Jul 20 15:00:59 that's the kind of text adventure I like -- lots of exploring. Jul 20 15:01:24 yeah - it was really a novel Jul 20 15:01:26 anyway, is there any chance you could build the CLI version of frotz? Jul 20 15:01:31 ok Jul 20 15:01:39 thanks. Jul 20 15:01:42 you're awesome. Jul 20 15:04:03 oops, can't run scratchbox on this kernel - vdso bug Jul 20 15:05:16 echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled oh that was easy Jul 20 15:06:14 ever noticed that if the brightness is set to minimum on an n770, the light flickers as the wi-fi is used? Jul 20 15:06:22 yeah sometimes Jul 20 15:09:49 jpt9, http://pupnik.de/frotz_2.43-1_armel.deb Jul 20 15:10:03 hello Jul 20 15:10:04 <_Monkey> hi, NeoStrider Jul 20 15:10:09 anyone uses the garage here? Jul 20 15:10:13 hey pupnik Jul 20 15:10:17 hi NeoStrider Jul 20 15:10:32 thanks. opening now... Jul 20 15:10:32 you tried maemowizard some time ago, right? (my memory is very weak) Jul 20 15:10:46 yes Jul 20 15:10:56 and it didnt worked with gregalle SDK Jul 20 15:11:06 but I tried here and it worked flawlessly Jul 20 15:11:11 with Gregalle SDK Jul 20 15:11:42 I can't remember what went wrong Jul 20 15:11:56 neither do I Jul 20 15:12:04 I guess there was some missing files Jul 20 15:12:43 now I want to install the mono devkit =-) Jul 20 15:13:14 anyone knows how to configure the garage Jul 20 15:13:15 ? Jul 20 15:15:06 jpt9: heh, where did it install the frotz binary i wonder Jul 20 15:15:15 dunno. Jul 20 15:15:22 not in the path, I can tell you that :-) Jul 20 15:16:25 /usr/games Jul 20 15:16:48 i have a ~/bin directory. i'll just stick it there. Jul 20 15:17:19 ok that command is in the postinst under /debian Jul 20 15:17:59 ??? Jul 20 15:18:21 just gonna change the package to install to /usr/bin Jul 20 15:18:28 okay Jul 20 15:18:30 thanks. Jul 20 15:18:32 also.... Jul 20 15:18:33 <_Monkey> rumour has it also is there a nice tutorial for setting up a python dev environment for the n800 Jul 20 15:18:45 :-) Jul 20 15:18:47 it works. Jul 20 15:20:09 on the device i also did: mv /usr/games/* /usr/bin && rmdir /usr/games && ln -s /usr/bin /usr/games Jul 20 15:20:52 what will that do, exactly? Jul 20 15:21:34 puts all the /usr/games stuff into /usr/bin and makes a symbolic link from /usr/games to /usr/bin Jul 20 15:21:38 just to avoid this in future Jul 20 15:21:45 should i run that? Jul 20 15:22:03 no need Jul 20 15:22:24 this is great. i don't have time for infocom games but it's wonderful to have on the tablet Jul 20 15:22:44 did you update the package or something? Jul 20 15:24:19 yes, but the only change is moving it from /usr/games to /usr/bin Jul 20 15:27:13 yay. it works now. you should post that on maemo. Jul 20 15:27:15 that'd be cool. Jul 20 15:30:21 thanks for the build, pupnik. Jul 20 15:31:15 well...im going to work Jul 20 15:31:20 see you later, guys! Jul 20 15:33:36 huh... Jul 20 15:33:55 the n770 doesn't seem to know the layout of an apple bluetooth keyboard particularly well. Jul 20 15:41:35 gah gfrotz is smaller than my frotz package Jul 20 15:43:37 who cares. frotz has more features. Jul 20 15:45:29 Does anyone know of an audio player for linux that supports bookmarks? i.e. saving your position in an audio book, then coming back to it later? I'm looking for something to port... Jul 20 15:46:05 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?p=61650#post61650 Jul 20 15:46:11 CHECK that out.. Jul 20 15:46:24 posted it around midnight... Jul 20 15:46:34 free phone calls on the N800.... Jul 20 15:46:57 possibly with gizmo for 770 users... Jul 20 15:47:17 eh, too much work Jul 20 15:47:21 I ended up just buying a year of skype Jul 20 15:47:29 too much work. Jul 20 15:47:30 lol Jul 20 15:47:38 install the new sip client... Jul 20 15:47:50 it's a pain to have different services for incoming and outgoing Jul 20 15:47:51 and get a FreeDigits account.... Jul 20 15:47:57 and to be limited by the number of minutes you have etc Jul 20 15:48:06 plus who knows how long these free places will be open for Jul 20 15:48:09 just look at sunrocket Jul 20 15:48:19 I'm not saying it's not for anyone, just not for me Jul 20 15:50:11 it wasn't too much work for me...took maybe 10 minutes at most to set up everything. installing the sip client, getting an account from freedigits and setting it up. Jul 20 15:50:27 FreeCalls only offer free outbound. Jul 20 15:51:21 freedigits offer a free number that allows you to recieve inbound calls..and allows you to make outbound calls free.. Jul 20 15:51:58 freedigits says " Outgoing Minutes No* *Outbound calling rates apply." Jul 20 15:52:40 any hints on what is needed to compile a kernel for 770? Jul 20 15:52:57 I mean what patches to i need to get besides the vanilla sources Jul 20 15:53:09 and where can i get the default .config Jul 20 16:05:56 ty unique311 i'll look at that Jul 20 16:06:09 np Jul 20 16:13:35 "When ARM announced Neon in October of 2004, it said chips supporting Neon instructions could decode an MP3 stream in 8-10MHz" Jul 20 16:13:40 more A8 Cortex porn... Jul 20 16:13:50 is there a overwiew of where allthe stuff is in flash? I need to dump the bootloaders of my n770 Jul 20 16:13:53 ? Jul 20 16:19:47 don't know blkhawk Jul 20 16:20:06 "The Cortex-A8 achieves a BDTIsimMark2000/MHz score of 7.6. The ARM1176 achieves a BDTIsimMark2000? score of 1200 at 335 MHz, or 3.6 BDTIsimMark2000/MHz." Jul 20 16:22:16 pupnik: thanks anyway Jul 20 16:22:42 my problem is that if i screw this up then it will be bricked Jul 20 16:22:47 needing a reflash Jul 20 16:23:17 via the jtag probably Jul 20 16:23:23 and thats tools i do not have Jul 20 16:25:15 Wow the OMAP3430 was shipping a year ago. Jul 20 16:25:48 blkhawk: Why do you need that? Jul 20 16:28:01 zuh: my N770 is a prototype Jul 20 16:28:10 the board is different Jul 20 16:28:19 might have different flash addresses Jul 20 16:28:25 I have been warned Jul 20 16:28:35 that it "might" be different Jul 20 16:28:52 blkhawk: it still has IT2005 on it? Jul 20 16:29:25 pupnik: it has it2005SE on it now Jul 20 16:29:30 blah Jul 20 16:29:36 I upgraded it from the debug code that was on it Jul 20 16:29:42 pupnik: exactly Jul 20 16:30:02 If i can dump the xloader and the NOLO then i can do a binaery compare Jul 20 16:30:08 Motorola 7450 (Powermac G4): 1324 Dhrystone 2.1 MIPS @ 733 mhz Jul 20 16:30:17 since they stay the same for os2005 Jul 20 16:31:14 If you're working for a company, i'd think the time you are spending on this is worth more than the cost of a new or used nokia 770 Jul 20 16:31:15 but since arm to armel is switched in the loader (wither the x-loader or the NOLO) i need to reflash those too going to os 2006 Jul 20 16:31:45 pupnik: its all very unofficially - and i will probably be getting a n800 Jul 20 16:31:55 somewhen at the end of august Jul 20 16:32:53 but i want to start the project now Jul 20 16:32:56 :) Jul 20 16:33:27 "The worst example of synthetic benchmark abuse is Dhrystone MIPS. Silicon and compiler optimizations of Dhyrstone MIPS have rendered it virtually useless, and no one has made the effort to update it. In addition, Dhrystone was written in the days before on-die caches, so its small size makes it an incredibly poor measure of system performance." Jul 20 16:34:32 so any thought s on where in flash the loader is probably and how to get it? I have some ideas but anything might be helpful Jul 20 16:34:52 my next step is setting up a toolchain and installing the newest linux kernel Jul 20 16:34:58 I think that stuff is closed source Jul 20 16:35:12 pupnik: i just need the binary Jul 20 16:35:21 I will do a compare Jul 20 16:35:39 if its different from all the other it2005 loarders i know i am sol Jul 20 16:35:58 if they are the same then i can flash away Jul 20 16:36:23 franky i do not seewhy a prototype would use different flas addresses to boot Jul 20 16:36:28 frankly Jul 20 16:37:01 but without any way of flashing it cold I do not want to risk breaking it Jul 20 16:44:00 is anything speaking against just using the newest linux kernel? Jul 20 16:46:17 yeah that might be a good idea Jul 20 16:46:28 if you can drop a new kernel on it, then upgrade the os Jul 20 16:46:46 pupnik: the problem is the binaery format Jul 20 16:47:03 I can upgrade the os but it would mean building it from scratch Jul 20 16:47:41 its like this x-loader->NOLO->Kernel->initfs Jul 20 16:47:51 xloader supports serial flashing Jul 20 16:47:58 and NOLO supports usb Jul 20 16:48:30 the bineaery format gets switched in xloader or NOLO Jul 20 16:48:36 Probably x-loader tho Jul 20 16:49:05 means if it does not work i have no way of getting the old boot loader back on it Jul 20 16:49:26 hmm ... Jul 20 16:49:51 the idea is - I dump xloader and NOLO from my curent setup Jul 20 16:49:51 blkhawk: So that means that your best bet is to begin with NOLO ;) Jul 20 16:50:00 compare them to the vanilla loaders Jul 20 16:50:19 X-Fade: well it would ifi knew how to do a serial flash :P Jul 20 16:50:33 It is remotely possible that i figure that out Jul 20 16:51:13 i know one thing tho: all the boot loaders are different in it2006 Jul 20 16:51:54 so its a save bet that the binaery format gets switched in x-loader Jul 20 16:52:06 Do you think the bootloader part in the image isn't the same as flashed in your device? Jul 20 16:52:07 that leaves me no way to test it Jul 20 16:52:14 yes Jul 20 16:52:19 its a possibility Jul 20 16:52:31 since i have been warned that this might be thecase Jul 20 16:52:32 Hah. "Intel's initial "Tolapai" SoC design is based on a Pentium M core clocked at 600MHz to 1.2GHz, with integrated external memory controller and I/O peripheral interfaces. Its power envelope would range between 13 and 25 Watts". Phlblblblt. Intel sucks. x86 sucks. Jul 20 16:52:54 so if i can dumpthem and compare them to the ones i have from the vanilaa releases then i can make sure Jul 20 16:53:19 blkhawk: No way to just dd from the device? Jul 20 16:53:27 X-Fade: sure Jul 20 16:53:31 but from Where Jul 20 16:53:37 hmmmm Jul 20 16:53:47 i could probably dd the whole flash Jul 20 16:54:11 /dev/mtd0 perhaps? Jul 20 16:54:26 maybe Jul 20 16:54:26 or /dev/mtdblock0 Jul 20 16:54:55 i am not sure where the loaders live Jul 20 16:54:56 You should even be able to use mtd tools to flash it from the device:) Jul 20 16:55:14 well the filesystem is mtdblock4 Jul 20 16:55:19 the kernel is 3.. Jul 20 16:55:29 So what are the other? Jul 20 16:55:49 uhm Jul 20 16:55:51 you sure Jul 20 16:55:57 3 is initfs i think Jul 20 16:56:25 ehm yes.. Jul 20 16:56:40 it sure adds up Jul 20 16:56:45 2 is kernel Jul 20 16:56:53 and 1 and 0 are the bootloaders Jul 20 16:57:01 So 0 and 1 are xloader and NOLO Jul 20 16:57:07 i am unsure however if they are really behind them Jul 20 16:57:13 0 might be the whole flash Jul 20 16:57:39 Well, just dump it and check its size? Jul 20 16:58:09 Nokia-N800-26:~# dd if=/dev/mtdblock0 of=test Jul 20 16:58:09 256+0 records in Jul 20 16:58:09 256+0 records out Jul 20 16:58:25 Hmm got to go.. Talk to you later.. Jul 20 17:03:17 Urgh .. ruby osso is being a b*tch :( Jul 20 17:10:19 * alterego gives up Jul 20 17:24:48 how do I make the virtual keyboard stop showing up when I press Enter on my BT keyboard? Jul 20 17:24:57 It worked fine before Jul 20 17:25:01 i.e. two days ago Jul 20 17:25:14 there's no option to turn off virtual kb from showing up in any settings I've found Jul 20 17:25:20 mtdblock 0 contains the loaders Jul 20 17:25:20 I've tried all 3 of the hardware keyboard layout Jul 20 17:26:42 setting bluetooth on and off did nothing either Jul 20 17:26:53 it wouldn't pop up the virtual keyboard at all, when the bt kb was connected Jul 20 17:27:33 procto: maybe you can use maemo-gtk-im-switch xim Jul 20 17:29:01 I'll try Jul 20 17:30:01 that didn't do it Jul 20 17:30:27 i've had occasional thumbboard popup issues when using bt Jul 20 17:34:22 hi Jul 20 17:36:08 pupnik: looks like it magically fixed itself... Jul 20 17:36:18 oh well! Jul 20 17:36:43 fanoush says that an xbox controller could be hooked up to 770 via usb Jul 20 17:37:43 anyone ever tried rendering antialiased lines on the n800 ? Jul 20 17:37:46 don't know where to start Jul 20 17:38:44 do you want an AA line algorithm? Jul 20 17:39:00 i would like to render antialiased catmull rom splines Jul 20 17:39:43 neat - what for? vector art? Jul 20 17:40:09 drat Jul 20 17:40:15 x-loader is clearly different Jul 20 17:40:24 scribbling Jul 20 17:40:35 only a few bytes Jul 20 17:40:42 but i gues thats all it would take Jul 20 17:41:25 might just be config options tho Jul 20 17:45:53 guardian, your algo will have a true line position for each step, adjacent pixels then are shaded depending on distance from the true x,y of the line at that point. Wu's algorithm is a simple way to do that, your renderer has two cases "mostly vertical" and "mostly horizontal" and then weights pixel-pairs Jul 20 17:45:59 http://freespace.virgin.net/hugo.elias/graphics/x_wuline.htm Jul 20 17:46:50 ah i should have thought of this site :) Jul 20 17:53:01 what can cause the appearance of a stupid "top_application" HildonBanner at the startup of an app? Jul 20 17:53:42 pupnik: would maemo-gtk-im-switch xim cause my power button to stop working? Jul 20 17:54:13 never did for me Jul 20 17:54:16 hm Jul 20 17:54:18 I modified mce.ini Jul 20 17:54:23 and systemui.xml Jul 20 17:54:29 but I've since reverted chances on mce.ini Jul 20 17:54:37 and it completely does nothing Jul 20 17:55:07 i never changed those Jul 20 17:55:14 what for? Jul 20 17:55:28 I wanted to enable soft shutdown Jul 20 17:55:30 on the long press Jul 20 17:55:41 then I decided it would be fine to just add soft shutdown to the menu Jul 20 17:55:50 which is easy, since that item is only commented out Jul 20 17:56:19 I thought it might be premissions Jul 20 17:56:24 and set mce.ini to be all readable Jul 20 17:56:27 (I edited as root) Jul 20 17:58:51 hm I wonder if it's possible to use cyrillic kb layout with scim + compose key for X :| Jul 20 17:59:11 ok, I just used the poweroff command Jul 20 18:00:33 pupnik: after powering off manually, the button now seems to work Jul 20 18:00:36 at least for long press Jul 20 18:00:45 this stuff's mysterious! Jul 20 18:00:55 hi all Jul 20 18:01:06 aloha Jul 20 18:01:42 whx is there no arch/arm/configs/n770_defconfig file in the current kerneel sources? Jul 20 18:01:46 i just feel stupid asking this, but, there is some wiki space or page collecting themes for maemo? just found http://maemo.org/community/wiki/themesfr/ but nothing in Enlgish Jul 20 18:02:37 like it says in the wiki Jul 20 18:04:06 pupnik: ok, everything fixed Jul 20 18:04:25 pupnik: what soft poweroff does is it does roughly what closing the 770 cse does Jul 20 18:04:36 pupnik: since there is no direct equivalent Jul 20 18:04:46 pupnik: basically shuts everything down except wifi, and has fast powerup Jul 20 18:07:03 hmm Jul 20 18:07:11 nice Jul 20 18:08:03 is there a place to get the sources of the kernels? Jul 20 18:12:24 apt-get source rx-34-kernel Jul 20 18:12:35 er, kernel-source-rx-34 Jul 20 18:12:37 something Jul 20 18:15:57 pau_gm: I am not aware of such page in enligh, Jul 20 18:16:20 sp3000: from normal debian?

Jul 20 18:20:52 1.1? Jul 20 18:21:05 er it 2005 Jul 20 18:21:07 1.0 Jul 20 18:21:14 you can try to find the sources using apt-cache search kernel | grep source Jul 20 18:21:26 okay Jul 20 18:22:07 there are also good wiki pages , specialy for older relases :p Jul 20 18:22:54 this is a nice starting point http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto/ (also contains a kernel compile howto) Jul 20 18:23:09 keesj: ya i need to sort it all out Jul 20 18:23:19 My problems are a bit "special" Jul 20 18:23:25 huh Jul 20 18:23:27 http://maemo.org/development/documentation/tutorials/ Jul 20 18:23:36 why does that hide the relevant content by defaul? Jul 20 18:23:44 the relevant content being the links to the tutorials Jul 20 18:23:54 * sp3000 sighs Jul 20 18:24:07 really just need a crosscompiler and the right sources ;) Jul 20 18:24:08 wow. python's divmod() is pretty slow on my n800..... Jul 20 18:24:10 * blkhawk reads Jul 20 18:25:11 sigh - this is about 20 pages og hideon stuff i do not need - and a lot of bora stuff which i assume is 3.0 Jul 20 18:25:21 blkhawk: depending on your sbox install you might want to read the 3.0 kernel howto and adapt that to the older kernel Jul 20 18:26:01 I haven't setup anything yet Jul 20 18:26:08 trevarthan: isn't it just mod that is slow on arm? Jul 20 18:26:24 is it? I didn't know that. Jul 20 18:26:35 math is hard Jul 20 18:26:35 I assume doing sb-conf select SDK_ARMEL with SDK_ARM will get me rthe right toolchain Jul 20 18:27:47 * sp3000 wonders why the front page links to bothe tutorials and documentation, when documentation has tutorials right behind it Jul 20 18:28:08 blkhawk: it depends what version of the sdk you install Jul 20 18:28:13 Is there a better way to convert seconds into minutes:seconds than this then? current_time = "%2d:%02d" % divmod(int(manager.mplayer.seconds),60) Jul 20 18:29:42 keesj: sigh Jul 20 18:29:51 this was the answer I got when asking the same kind of question http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html Jul 20 18:30:02 keesj: i am happy with the newest version as long as it can compile to ARM Jul 20 18:30:29 * sp3000 wonders why the documentation font size is huge Jul 20 18:30:39 * sp3000 gives up on wondering Jul 20 18:30:50 keesj: and why isn't that done for you in the compiler? :) Jul 20 18:31:05 http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html#ModulusDivisionEasy Jul 20 18:31:41 * sp3000 reneges Jul 20 18:32:13 * sp3000 wonders which one of the two lists, the one in navigation or the one in content, is supposed to be the actual link list on http://maemo.org/development/documentation/how-tos/3-x/ Jul 20 18:34:50 ow. my head hurts now.... Jul 20 18:35:29 * keesj realy still wonders why debian is considered a boot Jul 20 18:35:50 I need to start understanding that pretty soom , or I must give up Jul 20 18:36:01 pizza! Jul 20 18:36:14 <||cw> a boot? Jul 20 18:37:25 <`0660> a boat? :) Jul 20 18:37:36 <||cw> debian is footwear? Jul 20 18:41:18 keesj: I must be doing something wrong. When I try that I get plug in n=200 and s=60. I'm expecting m=20, but I get m=200... Jul 20 18:45:45 anyihing speaking against using the newest compiler? Jul 20 18:46:27 it's python. no control over that. Jul 20 18:47:06 for scratchbox i mean ;) Jul 20 18:50:16 nm, I screwed up the numbers... Jul 20 18:57:12 is there a way to have some kind of a ... xorg.conf maybe? I want to setup en/ru kb settings, and switch them with alt+shift Jul 20 19:04:47 not through xorg.conf. maybe search with keyword "locales" rittyan1 Jul 20 19:11:17 :) I thought the divmod call was slowing it down, but then I ran cProfiler and it turns out that it's something else. divmod is fast enough. man... what would I do without cProfiler? Jul 20 19:12:09 is there ANY reason why the rootstraps for 1.1 and 1.0 cannot be downloaded from the repository? Jul 20 19:12:32 trevarthan: good news. cProfiler is a Phython profiler? Jul 20 19:12:57 pupnik, locales are about dates etc + default encoding. how it is related to keyboard input? :| Jul 20 19:14:29 yeah, I've been using it religiously ever since I started developing Kagu. It's really handy. Jul 20 19:22:16 who manages the maemo repository? Jul 20 19:22:23 Anyone know a few common reasons why a call to osso_initialize will segfault? Jul 20 19:22:36 blkhawk: did you try http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/ Jul 20 19:22:45 I need the 1.1 rootstrap and the damn webserver is misconfigured Jul 20 19:23:27 I followed the Maemo dev root filesystems link and it works Jul 20 19:23:34 yes - guess what - my MAC addy isn't valid Jul 20 19:23:54 you dont' need a mac foor developers root fs Jul 20 19:24:34 i need the rootstrap Jul 20 19:24:38 not rootfs Jul 20 19:25:12 or is that the same? Jul 20 19:25:17 * blkhawk is confused ;) Jul 20 19:28:21 so who do i poke about this Jul 20 19:30:09 ah shucks maybe it will work without it Jul 20 20:10:17 is here anyone involved into maemocjk? Jul 20 20:12:15 Yes. Jul 20 20:12:16 gah! this scarchbox thing drives me bonkers Jul 20 20:12:33 why cant i just compile the kernelsource for arm and i am done Jul 20 20:20:58 well bootloaders usually need to be modified/configured to point to newly installed kernels, right? Jul 20 20:26:06 pupnik: wellyes Jul 20 20:26:29 pupnik: however i did not replace them when upgrading to 1.1 Jul 20 20:27:11 pupnik: did I mention the scratchbox setup is driving me bonkers? Jul 20 20:27:25 not the setup Jul 20 20:28:14 pupnik: yes the setup - since i need a fairly old setup its all very very hard to get the right parts Jul 20 20:28:30 oh right Jul 20 20:28:34 * blkhawk is downgrading to scratchbox 0.9.8 Jul 20 20:28:39 i deleted my os2005 stuf Jul 20 20:28:48 ya everybody did :( Jul 20 20:29:11 i wish i could relyably test if i can flash the bootloaders Jul 20 20:42:10 blkhawk: If you think it's your lucky day you might want to try my "installer" for 2.2 and 3.1 Jul 20 20:42:24 http://paste-it.net/2930/raw/ Jul 20 20:45:53 keesj: well but don't i need 1.1? Jul 20 21:07:50 i need Maemo_Dev_Platform_RS_v1.1_arm.tgz Jul 20 21:08:17 coulkd somebody poke whoever maintains the repository and tell him or her to set the frigging file readable - thanks Jul 20 21:09:50 or somebody with shell acces might be so nice and get it tfor me? Jul 20 21:09:57 http://repository.maemo.org/stable/1.1/arm/Maemo_Dev_Platform_RS_v1.1_arm.tgz Jul 20 21:10:19 the webserver creates an index but refuses to let me get the file Jul 20 21:32:35 Is there a way to change filetype handlers in the file amanger? Jul 20 21:32:38 manager* Jul 20 21:34:46 pupnik: any ideas? Jul 20 21:35:15 Grrr .. My garage project got denied because of the ruby185 project. Jul 20 21:35:29 Flippin' hassle. Jul 20 21:35:38 oh Jul 20 21:36:00 i posted a mail about sdl1.2's headsetbutton problem to maemo-dev Jul 20 21:36:32 I think I'll just forget about using garage for the time being. I would have thought it was obvious that the ruby185 project is a load of cr*p Jul 20 21:38:25 it's a launcher? no bindings? but yours are ruby bindings? Jul 20 21:38:40 He just compiled ruby in the SDK. Jul 20 21:38:54 I'm distributing ruby binaries and maemo bindings. Jul 20 21:39:37 Even on the info page he said he wouldn't do anything more unless some asked him to. Jul 20 21:39:50 s/some/someone/ Jul 20 21:39:51 alterego meant: Even on the info page he said he wouldn't do anything more unless someone asked him to. Jul 20 21:40:08 Is there no escape from infobot?! Jul 20 21:40:22 :) Jul 20 21:43:09 Maybe I'm being unreasonable here. I guess I should talk to this guy and see if he wants to join forces. Jul 20 21:43:53 you could also try to convince the garage admins :P Jul 20 21:45:01 Well, I'm happy hosting it myself. It's already top on google for "ruby maemo", I was kind of shocked concidering I put the alpha version up only yesterday. ^_^ Jul 20 21:45:30 yeah it is, interesting :) Jul 20 21:45:31 Which reminds me. Need to update the API docs :) Jul 20 21:46:58 And done :D Jul 20 21:48:38 i need arch/arm/configs/n770_defconfig - anybody got that file for me ? Jul 20 21:50:50 unfortunally i have noaccess to the kernel sources with that file Jul 20 22:02:40 nm - i extracted it from the 2.0 rootstrap Jul 20 22:03:38 BTW - the defconfig fike pasted into the wiki is misformated as to be almost totally useless Jul 20 22:20:42 heh Jul 20 22:20:50 i build kernel-source-2.6.16 as kernel-source-2.6.12.3 Jul 20 22:20:55 and it worked Jul 20 22:35:36 ok for my next trick i will run a 2006 kernel with a 2006initfs but with a 2005se bootloader setup Jul 20 22:39:23 I think yer just asking for trouble. Jul 20 22:40:57 well Jul 20 22:41:00 :I Jul 20 22:41:23 just exploring my options Jul 20 22:41:30 since i am limited to2005 atm Jul 20 22:42:00 maybe i shold first get a serial console working Jul 20 22:42:56 Grrr .. Why is this segfaulting :( Jul 20 22:44:06 For some reason osso doesn't like being initialized inside a ruby extension. Jul 20 22:44:13 I can't see for the life of me why. Jul 20 22:50:41 is there a soure for serial plugs that fit the n770? Jul 20 22:50:57 good question Jul 20 22:51:55 seeing the kernel messages would be extremely useful Jul 20 22:52:12 my 2.6.16 kernel didn't really work out :P Jul 20 22:53:46 sigh - no 2gb fast mmc cards for me untill i can get my hands on the 1.1 RootStrap Jul 20 22:54:07 or rather the kernel contained in the rootstrap Jul 20 22:55:21 anyway Jul 20 22:55:47 thanks for listening to my rants and requests for information ;) Jul 20 22:55:52 need to sleep Jul 20 22:55:54 n8 Jul 20 23:10:10 Well .. That's interesting .. Jul 20 23:12:16 Hahaha Jul 20 23:12:26 I'm happy now :D Jul 20 23:12:28 * alterego sleeps Jul 20 23:21:59 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3C0K0FBHmY squidgesnes running with sound and full speed on gp2x (Arm920 @ 200mhz) Jul 20 23:24:53 ahh not full speed on all of them - DKC looked to be about 8 fps Jul 20 23:32:23 * Art- waves Jul 20 23:34:51 PLaystation emulation might work on the N800 Jul 20 23:34:52 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzRE0fLm1hk Jul 20 23:35:01 I fear this is probably an FAQ by now, but does anyone have a deb of 'bloglines 770'? Jul 20 23:35:03 i seriously doubt that.. Jul 20 23:35:21 gla55_: it's running on the 200mhz ARM920 gp2x Jul 20 23:36:30 probably overclocked @ 250 or so Jul 20 23:36:36 just the fmv just seems to skip a lot alone Jul 20 23:36:55 the fmv is very skippy - they have poor speed to the sd card Jul 20 23:37:19 is there gameplay on that youtube clip Jul 20 23:37:21 but 5-7 fps is pretty impressive Jul 20 23:37:27 yeah skip to about 5 min Jul 20 23:38:11 resident evil is a bad game to demo though imho, still bg's Jul 20 23:38:55 well the ps1 had pretty poor capabilities. Final Fantasy and other games used static BGs for good reasons Jul 20 23:39:04 impressive anyhow Jul 20 23:39:49 i'm mainly jealous about how well they got snes, gba and genesis emulated Jul 20 23:40:25 yeah it's capabilities suck.. but still.. on pc side.. xbox1 emulates it just okayish Jul 20 23:42:08 used it to play xenogears last winter.. Jul 20 23:42:27 great game.. that uses 3d for most stuff Jul 20 23:43:00 rpg/platform/action? Jul 20 23:43:04 rpg Jul 20 23:43:06 square's Jul 20 23:43:17 oh i haven't seen it Jul 20 23:43:26 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenogears Jul 20 23:43:30 mechas and shit Jul 20 23:43:40 pretty epic stuff Jul 20 23:45:44 The music in Xenogears was composed by Yasunori Mitsuda who was made famous by his work on the Super Famicom title, Chrono Trigger. Jul 20 23:45:56 Xenogears maintains a 90% ratio on Game Rankings, and within the top 15 best reviewed games on the Playstation. Jul 20 23:46:00 nice.. Jul 20 23:46:16 I was one of the early purchasrs of Bleem (ps1 emu) Jul 20 23:48:37 i'm still angry i didn't get that Psion Netbook Pro for 202 euro Jul 20 23:53:53 yeah i remember bleem Jul 20 23:55:34 and bleemcast even too.. Jul 20 23:56:36 has anyone been able to install (or build) microb-browser on scratchbox ? Jul 20 23:57:06 I can't manage to do either one Jul 20 23:57:40 i'd like to get it going on it2007he Jul 20 23:58:10 compiling from svn works fine (except it takes hours) but tablet-browser-ui can't be built because a dependency (libgtkadi-dev) is missing, and it's nowhere to be found Jul 20 23:58:26 Has anyone managed to stream music online to be accessed via a browser on the go? Jul 20 23:58:26 intalling from bora-extras equally fails because or missing packages Jul 20 23:58:53 apt-cache search libgtkadi-dev Jul 20 23:58:54 libgtkadi-dev - GTK ADI Library. development Jul 20 23:59:06 pupnik_: I don't have it! Jul 20 23:59:21 frob: I'm on bora 3.2 Jul 20 23:59:38 and I have the extras repo enabled Jul 20 23:59:58 i don't know how to see which repo has it Jul 21 00:00:28 oh wait Jul 21 00:00:46 you're on the ARMEL target ? Jul 21 00:00:51 i can share my sources.list Jul 21 00:01:14 apt-cache policy Jul 21 00:01:26 pupnik: it seems I have it on ARMEL, but not on X86, tough sources.list is the same Jul 21 00:01:51 thanks derf, i'd forgotten that Jul 21 00:01:54 and I just spent a night building microb-engine for X86, I'm not likely to repeat Jul 21 00:02:12 I used Debian for the better part of 5 years before anyone told me that. Jul 21 00:02:15 i never build on x86 Jul 21 00:02:20 I can't explain why the package is available only on one arch Jul 21 00:02:24 pupnik: why ? Jul 21 00:02:35 i build on armel because that's why i build stuff Jul 21 00:02:49 * frob smacks himself Jul 21 00:02:51 armel target Jul 21 00:02:55 heh Jul 21 00:03:12 I was sure I could not run armel binaries on scratchbox Jul 21 00:03:41 so, I'll have to rebuild microb-engine from scratch Jul 21 00:03:49 * frob sobs and sighs Jul 21 00:04:18 pupnik: could you check if microb-browser is installable there ? (here it's not) Jul 21 00:07:19 i only have gregale on scratchbox Jul 21 00:07:32 ok, sorry Jul 21 00:07:53 (any volunteers on bora around? :) Jul 21 00:08:27 apt-cache search microb-browser Jul 21 00:08:27 microb-browser - Meta-package for MicroB Browser aplication Jul 21 00:08:35 seems to be in bora repos Jul 21 00:09:57 evening. Jul 21 00:10:43 pupnik: it is, but I can't install it Jul 21 00:12:29 pupnik: http://pastebin.com/m12105921 Jul 21 00:13:59 i got similar complaints trying to install it on it2007he Jul 21 00:14:12 i didn't look into it further - maybe you can manually install those dependencies? Jul 21 00:15:32 trying, apt-get isntalling the whole long chain, until I got to this showstopper Jul 21 00:15:35 Package osso-browser-opera-adapter is not available, but is referred to by another package. Jul 21 00:15:36 This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or Jul 21 00:15:36 is only available from another source Jul 21 00:15:36 E: Package osso-browser-opera-adapter has no installation candidate Jul 21 00:16:08 (I'm totally uninterested in having opera, tough) Jul 21 00:17:20 it seems to be preinstalled on the itos Jul 21 00:17:23 afaict Jul 21 00:17:27 yup Jul 21 00:17:46 so how am I supposed to develop extensions for the browser now? :D Jul 21 00:18:18 grep opera-adapter /var/lib/dpkg/status Jul 21 00:18:18 Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.9.0), libc6 (>= 2.3.5-1), libcst, libdbus-1-2 (>= 0.61), libdbus-glib-1-2 (>= 0.61), libgconf2-6 (>= 2.6.4.15), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.8.6-1osso1), libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2:2.6.10-1.osso8), libjpeg62, libosso-gnomevfs2-0, libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.8.1), libssl0.9.7, maemo-browser-eal (>= 1.7.5), osso-browser-opera-adapter (>= 2:1.0.4), osso-ic-lib, zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.1), osso-browser-opera-dynamic Jul 21 00:18:24 Package: osso-browser-opera-adapter Jul 21 00:18:33 i dunno, i am a bear of little brain Jul 21 00:19:27 the point is, they got this beta software out for -developers- to use, but apparently it's not possible to do so Jul 21 00:19:55 thanks anyway pupnik Jul 21 00:20:13 i'd ask the questions in itt forums and/or maemo-developer list Jul 21 00:20:24 i also want to try the browser Jul 21 00:20:50 have you used it on the tablet yet? Jul 21 00:20:55 yes Jul 21 00:21:04 how is it? speed / rendering Jul 21 00:21:26 worked fairly well, didn't seem slower than opera (I haven't used it a lot tough) Jul 21 00:21:41 the good thing was I could finally use google reader Jul 21 00:22:07 and flash works too (sluggish as before, tough) Jul 21 00:22:12 ok. i really dislike this trend toward cpu-hungry websites. Jul 21 00:22:25 it is getting harder to avoid them Jul 21 00:22:38 definitely, it's a goddamn feed reader after all Jul 21 00:22:58 :/ well cheers - it's late here Jul 21 00:23:15 2:23 am here :D Jul 21 00:23:18 bye pupnik Jul 21 01:02:33 hi. I noticed they're selling nokia 770 really cheap at some webshops (source: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2564229) Jul 21 01:02:38 and I might be buying one Jul 21 01:03:23 but first I need to know can it do multitasking well? and I know maemo is based on GTK+ so should all GUI apps be written in GTK+? Jul 21 01:03:32 I assume it runs an X server.. right? or is it framebuffer? Jul 21 01:04:33 then.. I heard busybox is installed there by default but I was thinking if you could install the full gnu coreutils and some other standard software. is it possible? Jul 21 01:05:41 how about flashing the device? or can I just compile my own kernel for it, boot it up and expect it to work? what if my kernel is configured wrong? what kind of boot manager do you have? Jul 21 01:07:22 I also heard mplayer works fine with it but I just want a confirmation for this. it'd be cool to play Ogg Theora videos on it. Also all my music is in Ogg Vorbis can I play them? Jul 21 01:08:18 Esine: find your answers at http://maemo.org Jul 21 01:08:46 yeah but sometimes the documentation is vague and real life differs from it Jul 21 01:08:56 so I'd like to hear peoples' experiences Jul 21 01:13:43 yes it multi tasks, yes it uses xserver Jul 21 01:14:00 you might want to check itt forums Jul 21 01:14:08 itt? Jul 21 01:14:09 <_Monkey> itt is, like, http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums Jul 21 01:14:27 cool like thanks man like like Jul 21 01:14:38 thank _monkey :) Jul 21 01:14:50 The 770 doesn't have enough RAM to get more than 2 or 3 applications open, and there's no mechanism to open the virtual keyboard for non-GTK apps. Jul 21 01:15:24 I fail to see how 64MB is too low. What's taking up all the ram? GTK+ or X11 or your own software? Jul 21 01:17:32 You obviously haven't profiled a webbrowser recently. Jul 21 01:17:46 I use Opera :-) Jul 21 01:18:06 but I was thinking multiple applications one of them not necessarily being a web browser Jul 21 01:19:29 The 770 also comes with Opera. Jul 21 01:19:48 yeah Jul 21 01:43:49 btw.. you can set the wlan nic in 770 to promiscuous mode right? that'd be the ultimate portable sniffing tool 8) Jul 21 01:43:57 better than my Nintendo DS at least Jul 21 01:45:09 I'd be happy to know if anybody managed to install browser on scratchbox, thanks Jul 21 01:55:22 can you actually make phone calls with the 770 using it's bluetooth? Jul 21 02:02:43 ericz_: there's a phonelink application at the garage for that. never tried Jul 21 02:04:32 frob: if you install it from the 770 image it should work. qemu won't emulate arm6 instruction set and opera for n800 is probably compiled with arm6 optimizations Jul 21 02:11:32 disq: but I mean the mozilla browser Jul 21 02:34:48 frob: it should work with cpu transparency but with bare qemu i'm not sure Jul 21 02:36:53 disq: the problem is the package is not installable on scratchbox (missing dependencies) and it's not compilable either (missing source packages) Jul 21 02:39:19 Hi. Anyone have experience installing Hamachi for the n770? Can it be done via sudo gainroot? Jul 21 02:43:33 Kludgy: hamachi is closed source, and there's not version for the ARM architecture, how did you get it to run ? Jul 21 02:44:37 frob: there's hamachi for maemo Jul 21 02:45:34 oh, cool Jul 21 02:45:44 * frob hides in a corner Jul 21 02:46:14 The (non-production) files are here: http://files.hamachi.cc/linux/nokia-770/ Jul 21 02:48:11 I don't think sudo gainroot gets you the necessary privileges to install though, so I'm not sure how others are accomplishing the installation (though there are a lot of confirmations that it works) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jul 21 02:59:58 2007
