**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Feb 10 02:59:57 2008 Feb 10 03:00:13 Beats the other solutions Feb 10 03:00:55 I have an icon on my N800 KDE desktop called "Firefox" Feb 10 03:01:00 that executes: Feb 10 03:01:00 killall synergyc;synergyc --name banana 192.168.1.20;ssh -X jfisher@192.168.1.11 firefox Feb 10 03:01:12 :) Feb 10 03:01:40 I'd like to run my IM/IRC client only off of the N800 Feb 10 03:01:49 and gmail/greader Feb 10 03:02:16 The only place I run my IM/IRC client is at home Feb 10 03:02:18 and now I get to use grabanddrag extension for kinetic scrolling.. Feb 10 03:03:13 I use znc + bitlbee to get multi-client-single-session IRC+IM (usually x-chat) on all of my machines.. Feb 10 03:03:27 so I can start a conversation somewhere and continue it elsewhere without the other party knowing.. Feb 10 03:03:33 weechat+bitlbee and ssh around Feb 10 03:03:47 I used to use weechat.. Feb 10 03:03:50 until I found znc :) Feb 10 03:04:00 then I can use weechat and/or any local (i.e., usable with touch) client Feb 10 03:04:01 screen+weechat+bitlbee Feb 10 03:04:08 yeah, I use finch+screen Feb 10 03:04:10 right. which is lovely.. Feb 10 03:04:11 but.. Feb 10 03:04:16 but the n810 terminal is kind of poop for that Feb 10 03:04:17 if you screen+weechat with multi machines Feb 10 03:04:26 you are stuck with a weechat of a certain size.. Feb 10 03:04:30 that has to be appropriate for all devices Feb 10 03:04:40 at the same time? Feb 10 03:04:40 since it doesn't have any mode (which I can find) that's 80x24/25 Feb 10 03:04:51 I detach when I'm not around >_> Feb 10 03:04:59 you can weechat+znc+bitlbee and use one weechat per device Feb 10 03:05:15 and then each gets a proper-fitting client Feb 10 03:05:28 I have a weechat running on the server.. Feb 10 03:05:51 but I don't want to bother with detaching Feb 10 03:06:03 and if I forget, I don't want to have to kill (or type) anything Feb 10 03:06:13 once setup, this 'just works' Feb 10 03:06:23 :P Feb 10 03:06:34 znc stores buffers for you also, so when a new client connects to the same session, you get a history-- Feb 10 03:06:49 your way is fine for what you do. it wasn't for me. Feb 10 03:07:20 mmk. I'm stuck in my ways, I prefer to screen -rdA :) Feb 10 03:07:36 I have IRC/IM on the HTPC in the living room, all machines here connected via synergy and the N800 and the laptop that I sometimes carry around.. Feb 10 03:07:44 screen -x is the only way to roll Feb 10 03:07:46 see, if I had an N810 it may be different Feb 10 03:07:52 -x is for l00zerz Feb 10 03:07:59 fysa, how so? Feb 10 03:08:09 because then xterm wouldn't be like pulling teeth. Feb 10 03:08:19 God created terminals at 80x24, so resizing is irrelevant Feb 10 03:08:45 http://en.znc.in/wiki/index.php/ZNC Feb 10 03:08:46 I have a bluetooth keyboard I got from a friend for dirt cheap, good stuff. Feb 10 03:08:55 Yeah, I already looked it up Feb 10 03:09:09 xterm is pulling teeth on the 810, too Feb 10 03:09:10 OK. Feb 10 03:09:18 there are some ... important ... keys which aren't on the keyboard Feb 10 03:09:21 thanks Navi i wanted to get into screen again - will remember rdA Feb 10 03:09:29 like, for example, | Feb 10 03:09:53 pupnik, :D Feb 10 03:10:39 for a few years i feel like any time i read something, something else gets forgotten Feb 10 03:12:39 elb, what keyboard, a normal one? Feb 10 03:12:48 or the poke keyboard? Feb 10 03:13:09 the n810 slide-out keyboard Feb 10 03:14:46 mmm Feb 10 03:20:41 ./ Feb 10 03:24:27 ./ Feb 10 03:40:34 Hi Feb 10 03:41:30 Hi Feb 10 03:53:34 me again >.< my n800 /os2007 doesn't seem to turn on anymore after powering it on (battery is charged) is there a reset of some sort? Feb 10 03:55:43 nvm, i guess a little time off fixed it Feb 10 03:55:43 tried removing the battery for a while? Feb 10 03:56:43 goat|work, see https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2673 Feb 10 03:58:36 I wish I could see more dubug info in dmesg about mmc Feb 10 03:59:08 thanks leif__ Feb 10 03:59:48 Tama^2, http://intr.overt.org/2.2008.50-mmc-kernel/ Feb 10 04:01:10 I know about that one leif but I am trying to put together reliable information to post a bug and I am afraid that using a custom kernel will invalidate my point Feb 10 04:02:11 in other words I fear the official devs will consider my information less reliable because I was not running the stock kernel Feb 10 04:02:34 I am trying to nail down a problem with excessive mmc power consumption when idle Feb 10 04:03:07 yeah it would be useful to build the kernel with just the debug patch, and not the highspeed Feb 10 05:22:11 hello everyone Feb 10 05:22:16 hi Feb 10 05:23:05 is this room where i can possibly get some help with my new n810?

Feb 10 05:26:32 yup...right now it only works if the share isn't password protected though Feb 10 05:26:50 the shares should show up in file manager Feb 10 05:27:08 harsh. not exactly safe heh Feb 10 05:27:30 I guess it depends on who you let on your network Feb 10 05:27:57 yea. more like trying to keep the wife out :) Feb 10 05:28:45 well ty for your help. you gents have a nice night. thanks johnx Feb 10 05:28:51 sure Feb 10 05:28:59 let me see if I can find something about flash quick Feb 10 05:29:14 or...nevermind Feb 10 05:52:14 johnx: lol? Feb 10 05:52:21 hmm? Feb 10 05:52:48 lol Feb 10 05:53:10 just tell him to use UKTube from the UKMP project for youtube :P Feb 10 05:53:25 does that still work? Feb 10 05:53:31 i think so Feb 10 05:53:43 I thought that it got broken by youtube changing their URLs Feb 10 05:53:48 but I really wouldn't know... Feb 10 05:53:52 i think he fixed it? Feb 10 05:53:53 lemmie check Feb 10 05:56:00 wwell, A) the videos work on the youtube page for me Feb 10 05:56:18 tho laggy as usual Feb 10 05:56:41 I was going to help him but he logged off after I told him to hang on for a second Feb 10 05:56:48 yeah... saw Feb 10 05:56:53 so...meh Feb 10 05:57:04 anyways, booted into debian on the N800 Feb 10 05:57:11 tracking down sound issues Feb 10 05:57:18 looks like you may be right though... uktube stuck on initializing download Feb 10 05:57:31 johnx: ah, no sound yet? or just buggy Feb 10 05:57:40 very close to sound Feb 10 05:57:45 ? Feb 10 05:57:51 alsamixer works, but device files for pcm aren't created Feb 10 05:58:11 :( Feb 10 05:58:16 should be easy Feb 10 05:58:26 I got alsamixer working in about 20 minutes once I actually got around to it Feb 10 06:13:31 is there any way to tell in python if I'm on maemo or linux? os.name is the same for both Feb 10 06:17:42 I think vagalume must do it somehow Feb 10 06:20:56 you could check for a non-empty OSSO_VERSION Feb 10 06:28:06 osso-xterm Feb 10 06:31:37 hello all Feb 10 06:32:00 hello Feb 10 06:32:08 hi Feb 10 06:32:37 hi again john Feb 10 06:34:24 is there something special im supposed to do to access a shared folder in windows? Feb 10 06:34:57 i can see the pc, but nothing inside the folder =/ Feb 10 06:35:26 no idea :/ Feb 10 06:35:32 it should "just work" Feb 10 06:36:25 blarg. Feb 10 06:36:44 hmm, could be some access right related issue. as in, is the shared folder passord protected or something? as i dont think the file manager has any login dialog Feb 10 06:38:20 i removed all users from the shared permissions and added back access for everyone Feb 10 06:39:50 firewall open? Feb 10 06:40:06 t_s_o, it finds his computer though Feb 10 06:40:18 indeed, silly question. sorry Feb 10 06:40:31 np :) Feb 10 06:40:48 yeppers turned the wall off for this =) Feb 10 06:41:07 * johnx remains blissfully ignorant when it comes to troubleshooting file sharing on windows Feb 10 06:41:25 its ok. just assume i know nothing. im very new to linux. Feb 10 06:42:35 it "just works" with my samba shares Feb 10 06:42:43 don't think i have any windows shares to test Feb 10 06:43:28 seems to work ok here to, winxp at the moment Feb 10 06:43:31 so, some kind of samba software should be added to the tablet Feb 10 06:43:41 samba is already on the tablet Feb 10 06:43:46 if one use 08, there should be no need Feb 10 06:43:48 built into the file app Feb 10 06:44:17 yes this is 08. new 810. just got it yesterday Feb 10 06:44:20 maybe the prob is on teh server side? Feb 10 06:44:38 zoran: i would not be surprised Feb 10 06:44:50 Ant-X3: xp or vista on the pc? Feb 10 06:44:59 xp pro Feb 10 06:45:01 reboot everything you can find, including your fridge, dishwasher and your car Feb 10 06:45:10 :P Feb 10 06:45:12 I'm not win savvy, but some permissions have to be set, even on win Feb 10 06:45:34 lol i can give that a shot. Feb 10 06:45:48 not with hammer Feb 10 06:45:55 im fairly sure i have the permissons right Feb 10 06:46:02 after i opened up the firewall and started up sharing it works ok here, in simple mode that is... Feb 10 06:46:40 Ant-X3, how do you connected those computers? Feb 10 06:46:57 everything is through lan Feb 10 06:47:08 n810 is via wifi? Feb 10 06:47:12 yes Feb 10 06:47:17 router? Feb 10 06:47:22 also my other two laptops Feb 10 06:47:30 yes router Feb 10 06:47:35 do you have ip address on n810? Feb 10 06:47:56 ifconfig Feb 10 06:48:07 if or ip Feb 10 06:48:17 ip is on win, as I recall Feb 10 06:49:19 or simply clear all the cash on n810 Feb 10 06:49:42 you may need to allow anonymous browsing to get a list of shares Feb 10 06:49:46 (on the windows side) Feb 10 06:49:48 ok how do i do that? sorry im a newb Feb 10 06:50:03 the clear cache Feb 10 06:50:26 how do you want to find the share files, browser? Feb 10 06:51:04 i was trying to use file manager Feb 10 06:51:37 everytime i tried to use the browser it would put http:// in front of the network ip i typed in Feb 10 06:52:37 what is should be? smb? Feb 10 06:53:37 zoran: os2008 file manager has smb browsing built in, that's what he's using. Feb 10 06:53:46 k Feb 10 06:54:01 if it has any sort of a cache, i'd expect it to be cleared when you close file manager. If it isn't, i don't know of any way to clear it. Feb 10 06:54:14 ok Feb 10 06:54:35 in bsd world, I found samba-nmblookup to make a look at that share Feb 10 06:54:50 zoran: samba cli tools aren't in 2008 Feb 10 06:55:06 heh Feb 10 06:56:35 what if all units are rebooted, turned off and then file server put to life first Feb 10 06:57:12 ill give that a shot. i really appreciate the help guys. brb Feb 10 06:57:14 btw, what file formats are on the share? Feb 10 06:57:15 if it's seeing the server in the shares list and can't browse the contents then it's an issue on windows with how it exports the shared directories to an anonymous browser. Feb 10 06:57:39 zoran: smb shares are smb/cifs format, the underlying filesystem is irrelevant, it's a meta-layer Feb 10 06:57:58 dragorn, you think it needs software indentification? Feb 10 06:58:43 like: "hey, I'm your win friend, let me in!" Feb 10 06:58:46 I don't know what you mean by "software authentication". Smb = Windows file sharing, and it has support for authentication and share announcement control, yes. Feb 10 06:59:09 have to google for it now, must to say Feb 10 07:01:18 another complaint on ITT Feb 10 07:01:40 no files/folders as error message Feb 10 07:03:15 mount -t cifs //server/directoryes -o user=user,password=pass ? Feb 10 07:04:19 zoran: he's not using a cli samba. It's built into the file manager. Feb 10 07:04:27 eh, on the same ITT it says that file manages does not supportauthentication for cifs Feb 10 07:04:39 *manager Feb 10 07:04:50 hence, he needs to check his anonymous browsing permissions on windows :P Feb 10 07:06:22 dragorn, is it possible to have 2 Ant user connections at the same time? Feb 10 07:06:41 i don't know what an ant user is Feb 10 07:06:56 very very small 8 legged user Feb 10 07:06:57 Ant-X3, from laptop and n810 Feb 10 07:07:05 =/ still picks up the computer. no files though Feb 10 07:07:33 Ant-X3, disconnect laptops from the share to see if it works then Feb 10 07:07:46 yes it's perfectly possible to have multiple users browsing the same share Feb 10 07:07:57 with the same name? Feb 10 07:07:59 if you see the share and don't see files, it's a permissions issue on the share. Feb 10 07:08:02 Yes, of course. Feb 10 07:08:05 im only on through the 810. only things on are the server and the 810 atm Feb 10 07:08:09 not to be confused with an aunt user, which is like a luser but is your fathers sister Feb 10 07:08:29 Proteous: clever. Feb 10 07:08:34 :P Feb 10 07:09:26 ITT, maybe wrongly, says that only multimedia files could be shared that way. I doubt Feb 10 07:09:35 yup that's wrong Feb 10 07:10:34 if fm has acces to smb/cifs, some libs are around. maybe they could be used the other way Feb 10 07:11:10 something like sshfs Feb 10 07:11:28 zoran, there's not reason you couldn't compile up smbnetfs for fuse Feb 10 07:11:35 i did see a guide on maemo.org on how to install cifs and mount the share in xterm Feb 10 07:11:36 patch to fuse Feb 10 07:12:04 libs are there, since you user it Feb 10 07:12:09 *use Feb 10 07:12:18 or install full samba. But none of that will play terribly nice with filemanager. Knock yourself out in xterm tho. Feb 10 07:12:20 so, just front end is needed Feb 10 07:12:49 Ant-X3, what is on that server? Feb 10 07:12:57 depending how smb is implemented, maybe. Maybe not. Feb 10 07:13:50 what exactly are you needing to know? Feb 10 07:14:00 what are file types on it? Feb 10 07:14:11 why do you think that has anything to do with his problem? Feb 10 07:14:22 mostly .avi and mp3. just media Feb 10 07:14:23 never mind. Have fun. Feb 10 07:14:25 shoot in blank Feb 10 07:15:01 Ant-X3, if you keep having problems with this a UPnP server for media files could be an alternate solution Feb 10 07:15:01 k, maybe some logs could be found on win? Feb 10 07:15:43 upnp. i havent set that up before, but im game for anything that will work Feb 10 07:16:22 u c shared files from laptops? Feb 10 07:17:09 yup Feb 10 07:21:53 the laptops could access the share when it was passcoded Feb 10 07:22:36 ITT sais repeatedly that passworded shares are a no go Feb 10 07:22:50 sadly Feb 10 07:22:54 zoran, he knows that...he already changed that Feb 10 07:22:56 maybe when i removed them and added the "everyone" group i screwed something up Feb 10 07:23:06 yea i removed pw Feb 10 07:23:24 Ant-X3, is there another way to do that, like "allow anonymous" or something? Feb 10 07:25:04 maybe "guest" Feb 10 07:26:09 i moved to the security function. i do see an option for "list folder contents" Feb 10 07:27:17 xp or n810? Feb 10 07:27:37 xp Feb 10 07:28:07 stupid explorer crapped out >.< going to try again Feb 10 07:28:50 people let user option empty and set uid as user,guest Feb 10 07:29:03 if possible on filemanager Feb 10 07:32:47 smbfs and smbclient on maemo-hackers site Feb 10 07:33:18 ah, os2006, sorry Feb 10 07:34:26 ahh well. ill have to play with this tomorrow. thanks for the help everyone. Feb 10 07:34:44 hey, found a link to something insteresting! Feb 10 07:35:03 cifs.ko from fanoush module archive Feb 10 07:35:53 than smbfs package from cid armel repo Feb 10 07:36:11 poster is gole on ITT, he said it worked for him Feb 10 07:36:21 he see files in filemanager Feb 10 07:41:17 maybe the solution is this, if any1 interesting to read few line? Feb 10 07:41:47 take fanoush cifs.ko module and load it Feb 10 07:41:55 than mount from command like: Feb 10 07:42:02 zoran, he left... Feb 10 07:42:19 logs are around for him to read Feb 10 07:42:34 k Feb 10 07:47:14 where do I report a bug (feature request) for os2008 chat-ui?

Feb 10 12:08:49 yes Feb 10 12:08:57 you should be able to anyway ;) Feb 10 12:09:32 should it just work? because, you know, it doesn't :) Feb 10 12:10:05 it should do yes, is it a dns problem? Feb 10 12:11:46 yes, that was the problem, thank you lardman Feb 10 12:11:52 np Feb 10 12:14:17 oh great... I wanted to debug a segfaul in modest, but in scratchbox it works fine :/ Feb 10 12:14:37 and I can't get it to dump core on the device Feb 10 12:15:53 gdb on device? Feb 10 12:16:53 eh... I was trying to avoid it :) Feb 10 12:17:43 oh well Feb 10 12:18:07 michele_: if you find modest crashes, please file a bug Feb 10 12:18:18 with as much detail as you can get about servers etc. Feb 10 12:18:33 esp. test accounts are helpful, so we can reproduce Feb 10 12:19:00 hey djcb Feb 10 12:19:23 I don't think I can provide a test account, as it's my company mail server Feb 10 12:19:44 it's a kerio mail server Feb 10 12:20:04 ok.... well, if we can reproduce it, it's probably easy to fix Feb 10 12:20:08 if not Feb 10 12:20:17 it gets a bit harder Feb 10 12:20:26 and I suspect it's due to its funky imap layout Feb 10 12:20:50 as I had to mess with prefixes in thunderbird too Feb 10 12:21:00 well, modest shouldn't crash Feb 10 12:21:17 michele_, to get core dumps I think /media/mmcX/core-dumps/ needs to exist Feb 10 12:21:33 jku: really? let's try Feb 10 12:22:18 also, you might want to try sp-rich-core: http://maemo.org/development/tools/ Feb 10 12:22:36 I have yet to try it, but it looks useful Feb 10 12:30:03 oh yes Feb 10 12:30:50 jku: you was right, the directory needs to be there Feb 10 12:32:44 that's a useful thing to know, thanks Feb 10 12:36:29 uhm I wonder if I can use a core dump from the device to get a backtrace in scratchbox... Feb 10 12:36:50 canola2 beta do not play automatically a next movie on movie part Feb 10 13:11:09 lardman: about core dumps... http://maemo.org/development/documentation/how-tos/4-x/maemo_debugging_guide.html#debugcorefilesindevice Feb 10 13:19:39 ah, I never bothered to read the latest one; thanks :) Feb 10 14:11:50 I need libgdbm-dev to compile maemomapper from svn.Any idea where to get it from ?

I'd like to work out what to link my test program against Feb 10 14:54:52 lardman: "XWindows"?-) Feb 10 14:55:08 X Feb 10 14:55:30 Xfree, Xorg, X11, all that sort of stuff :) Feb 10 14:55:35 what to link against? you mean -lX11 Feb 10 14:55:37 '? Feb 10 14:55:53 yes, that's exactly it, do I only need to link against libX11? Feb 10 14:56:16 for basic X functions that is Feb 10 14:56:18 * michele_ really wants aptitude on device Feb 10 14:56:24 if its just a simple xlib app.. if you use threads(lotsa probs wit X and threads) -lpthread Feb 10 14:56:37 * lcuk is glad his device doesnt have attitude Feb 10 14:56:44 yeah, just -lX11 if you're basically creating windows, drawing, etc Feb 10 14:56:58 yep, very simple, creates a window then allows dsp to overwrite that area, then destroys window Feb 10 14:57:28 yeah, -lX11 should do it then Feb 10 14:57:32 lcuk, it doesn't? :P Feb 10 14:57:39 lard, any chance i could borrow that test (not interested in the dsp section) Feb 10 14:57:44 no, mine doesnt Feb 10 14:58:01 lcuk: sure, you can take a look at it, not sure it will work mind you ;) Feb 10 14:58:44 thats ok, im just looking through the omapfb stuff at the mo and hitting a few dead ends, if i go through x at least i can follow the path Feb 10 14:59:15 best bet is probably to follow svb's code from mplayer, that's what I've copied basically Feb 10 14:59:21 (it doesnt help that ive got youngest hovering around) Feb 10 14:59:23 GRumble. where can i find libgpsmgr-dev ? Feb 10 14:59:27 file:///home/simon/development/DSP/test-framebuffer-scaler-colorspace-770/vo_nokia770.c.html Feb 10 14:59:38 melmoth: it's in the repos in the sdk for me Feb 10 14:59:39 * melmoth note it s a bit of a pain to find devel package on maemo Feb 10 14:59:45 oops, not a proper link any more Feb 10 14:59:47 ive just been checking out the svn for mplayer but its failed about 4 times, and theres not much more i can do reading the websvn Feb 10 14:59:47 i can send my /x11/smg_x11.[cpp/h] file if you guys want it.. its c++, basically has window opening, surface getting stuff in it (and window breating / colormap stuff too) Feb 10 15:00:10 dragorn: hmmm, like..localy ? Feb 10 15:00:11 *creating Feb 10 15:00:12 braddbr: would be interesting Feb 10 15:00:21 melmoth: no, but it was in one of the default repos in the sdk Feb 10 15:00:27 https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/trunk/libvo/vo_nokia770.c?root=mplayer&view=markup Feb 10 15:00:45 k, gimme a sec Feb 10 15:00:46 dragorn: apt-cache dont find it anymore here (chinook) Feb 10 15:00:50 braddbr, that sounds like a nice base Feb 10 15:01:14 melmoth: did for me, dunno what to tell you. I said "why the eff wasn't this in here already" and installed it, no real issues Feb 10 15:01:31 melmoth it's in the nokia binaries Feb 10 15:01:33 lard, ive been browsing that since yesterday i got device back and was wanting to get something together but damned tortoiseSVN keeps failing Feb 10 15:02:00 files should be in ~/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_4.0/ Feb 10 15:02:16 and sources.list should find them there Feb 10 15:02:33 lcuk: here's my first crack http://pastebin.ca/898687 Feb 10 15:02:38 ahhh, i think i....rmed this directory :) Feb 10 15:02:48 Any idea how to get it back easily ? Feb 10 15:02:52 that might do it :P Feb 10 15:03:09 melmoth, that's a mistake if you want to do anything with location on chinook... Feb 10 15:03:17 i just realised now. Feb 10 15:03:27 apt-cache seems annoyingly reticent to tell you what repo something comes from Feb 10 15:03:28 Will see if i got a backup copy Feb 10 15:03:44 otherwise i ll just... reinstall (or dont try to play with maemomapper :) ) Feb 10 15:03:52 check the SDK install instructions, it should be easy Feb 10 15:05:05 lardman, thanks :) i notice you gave up ont he omapfb.h ;) Feb 10 15:05:17 it took a bit of searching to get it included in mine Feb 10 15:05:30 lcuk: not sure I need it Feb 10 15:05:44 its got the direct refresh LCD call inside it Feb 10 15:05:44 lcuk: I removed everything I didn't think I needed Feb 10 15:05:53 lcuk: I'm doing that from the DSP Feb 10 15:06:02 anyone have a ftp site i can post the x11 stuff to? Feb 10 15:06:13 then its all good :) Feb 10 15:06:14 braddbr: is it a single file? Feb 10 15:06:20 braddbr: pastebin? Feb 10 15:06:40 well its the .h and the .cpp Feb 10 15:06:44 gimme a minute Feb 10 15:07:00 * lcuk gives braddbr as long as he needs :) Feb 10 15:07:32 * lcuk configures lardman.c Feb 10 15:08:33 lcuk: have to head out, let me know if it works or not (probably not :) ), I'll test it when I get back Feb 10 15:08:50 braddbr: I'll grab your files when I get back too Feb 10 15:08:56 ok Feb 10 15:08:59 bye Feb 10 15:09:01 alright, ill be playing around with it today Feb 10 15:09:06 thanks lard, cya later Feb 10 15:10:46 Ok, i think i got it http://repository.maemo.org/stable/chinook/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_4.0.sh :) Feb 10 15:14:13 braddbr, ive gotta make some dinner, but if you manage to get something up just let us know i will look in a few mins Feb 10 15:14:20 i will Feb 10 15:14:31 :) thx Feb 10 15:28:05 lardman|away, your example compiles and goes to black base screen after removing your /dev/dsptask/fbtest section. i added -lX11 to the library list to get it resolving :) Feb 10 15:31:06 well my code is too big to paste to pastbin but i made you's a simple window-opening pastebin http://pastebin.com/m29909750 Feb 10 15:32:31 my X stuff does work on my nokia, so let me know if you need more code snippets and i will be glad to paste Feb 10 15:37:58 (i havent learned how to integrate with hildon / gtk yet so don't ask me that :) ) Feb 10 15:40:03 is it possible to install Opera Mini on n800? Feb 10 15:41:17 thankx braddbr i have downloaded and will look once i stop being bugged by all family for bits of me Feb 10 15:41:23 ok :) Feb 10 15:41:31 * lcuk_dinner gives away 810 Feb 10 15:41:35 * lcuk_dinner gives away desktop Feb 10 15:41:39 * lcuk_dinner sulks Feb 10 15:42:08 i know devs who could do great things with a n800 n810 Feb 10 15:42:42 my first app is coming along.. its a simple grid-like editor to make little images :) Feb 10 15:42:42 opera mini is reduced greatly the data traffic Feb 10 15:44:52 what are you trying to do lcuk_dinner ? Feb 10 15:45:33 K-Fox, no. opera mini only works on the version of java for mobile phones (JavaME?) as far as I understand Feb 10 15:47:42 mowser.com will shrink web sites, but doesn't make them look as nice as opera mini Feb 10 15:58:38 braddbr, just get the feel for x and the omapfb on 810. just starting Feb 10 15:58:50 braddbr: those are fun to make iconic gfx with - esp back in the low-color era Feb 10 15:59:23 yeah.. i had a headache learning about colormaps under X11.. pretty simple now tho Feb 10 15:59:36 what is omapfb, direct access to screen pixel-map? Feb 10 16:04:00 johnx: ok~~~ Feb 10 16:08:04 I read something about native GCC in Maemon, anyone got any details? Feb 10 16:13:46 native's free-pee pees and mammaries? Feb 10 16:14:53 Hallin, you maean a gcc compiler for maemo arm? Feb 10 16:22:28 sorry, d/c Feb 10 16:23:15 braddbr_: Yes, correct. Feb 10 16:23:22 http://www.thisismobility.com/blog/2008/02/08/native-gcc-on-the-n810/ Feb 10 16:23:48 Hallin: it's just repository.maemo.org, i.e. SDK packages on the device itself Feb 10 16:26:51 Aha, I see. Feb 10 16:29:20 You are advised to learn how to use scratchbox to develop for the tablets. Feb 10 16:30:05 Already using scratchbox, gcc on the device itself could be fun, though. Feb 10 16:42:02 hey, is the keyboard on the n810 worth the extra price over the n800 Feb 10 16:42:21 imho, yes. Or more accurately, not having the onscreen KB using up half the screen is. Feb 10 16:42:52 ya, I agree it's better, but I'm trying to decide if it's $200 better Feb 10 16:43:06 also gps, though the gps is kind of crap Feb 10 16:43:18 That I can't tell you :P Feb 10 16:43:25 For me, it's worlds better than the 800 Feb 10 16:43:37 you've had both? Feb 10 16:43:44 I've had all three Feb 10 16:44:00 i see Feb 10 16:44:16 I never liked the design of the 800. the 810 still has some quirks, but it's much more useful to me than the 800 ever was Feb 10 16:44:35 My personal recommendation is to save the cash and get the N800. Feb 10 16:44:43 others have other opinions. You could also get a small BT keyboard, and use that, so long as you don't need to type any passwords Feb 10 16:44:47 But I can't say that I've used the N810 for more than 10 minutes. Feb 10 16:44:47 passwords over BT = bad :P Feb 10 16:45:01 ya Feb 10 16:45:07 The fullscreen thumbboard on the N800 works very nicely for me. Feb 10 16:45:37 braddbr: thanks Feb 10 16:45:40 Also to consider: Dual SDHC versus single MiniSD Feb 10 16:45:42 thanks guys Feb 10 16:45:53 there's a lot to consider Feb 10 16:46:12 if you plan to use it for just dicking around in the browser and playing a movie, 800 is fne Feb 10 16:46:29 if you want to use it to write anything or use the terminal for much, you're probably going to be unhappy with the onscreen kb Feb 10 16:46:39 i'm planning on it replacing my palm tx Feb 10 16:46:42 hear hear Feb 10 16:46:57 having not used a palm since the mid-90s, I don't know what that means :) Feb 10 16:47:42 browsing the web, calendar, to do Feb 10 16:47:47 's, contacts Feb 10 16:47:57 i know the browser's tons better Feb 10 16:48:08 and there's the garnet vm so I can run all of my palm apps Feb 10 16:48:08 The browser is good. I haven't found anything I cared for for any of the others Feb 10 16:48:13 yeah i guess Feb 10 16:48:21 anyone used the garnet vm? Feb 10 16:48:27 I wouldn't use it as a palm replacement, though Feb 10 16:49:13 What do you guys use for notes? quicknote looks buggy Feb 10 16:49:14 i also ordered a nokia n95 8gb Feb 10 16:49:37 Oh, good, use the n95 for your pim and calander stuff Feb 10 16:49:53 that's what I was thinking Feb 10 16:50:05 and tablet for web and some music Feb 10 16:50:36 braddbr_: what is the variable dis in your code? Feb 10 16:51:00 Display *dis; // its the connection to the X server Feb 10 16:51:13 so it should be d? Feb 10 16:51:27 Display *d = XOpenDisplay(0); Feb 10 16:51:39 Oh, yeah thats fine Feb 10 16:51:52 I thought so, just checking Feb 10 16:52:36 and if I don't actually want any XWindow events, I suppose I should still wait for the Exposure event Feb 10 16:52:41 Dumb 770 question, is the Omap1 in it able to take advantage of EABI and if so does OS2006/2007HE take advantage of it? Feb 10 16:52:44 did I use d instead of dis? btw, XSIZE and YSIZE are the window size you want to create (nokia will still create the regular size window but you will only be able to access XSIZE and YSIZE) Feb 10 16:53:10 yeah, you should wait for expose.. then you know what you draw to the window will take effect Feb 10 16:53:10 braddbr_: yeah, you used d at the start Feb 10 16:54:26 Any maemomapper developper around ? Feb 10 16:54:41 I wonder where is the poi.c:map_render_poi() function ever called (if it is) Feb 10 16:56:06 braddbr_: thanks Feb 10 16:56:14 np Feb 10 16:57:09 any gurus here? Feb 10 16:57:32 need some help mounting an iso in OS2008 from mmc2 Feb 10 16:57:32 The path to inner piece is fraught with great distraction. Feb 10 16:57:45 he who travels alone travels far Feb 10 16:58:46 ok General, my deathstar is an n810 and I need to bullseye something bigger than a womprat Feb 10 16:59:11 never tried it. You'd need both loopback support and iso9660 support in the kernel. Feb 10 16:59:25 Loopback it might have, iso9660 is less likely, you could probably build the modules though. Feb 10 16:59:35 To be quite honest, I don't believe I've ever actually mounted any sort of disk image on anything besides a Mac. :# Feb 10 16:59:49 yeah, dragorn, i dont know that iso9660 support is in /etc/filesystems Feb 10 17:00:09 i believe lo sport is in the kernel Feb 10 17:00:34 that would have nothing to do with it. You need the kernel module for iso9660. and lo = network loopback, you need loopback block device support Feb 10 17:01:00 GeneralAntilles: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1H1mq7jAck Approach, students. Close the circle at the feet of the master. Feb 10 17:01:10 er /proc/filesystems Feb 10 17:01:36 so hey dragorn, I basically need to either compile a new kernel or build a module? Feb 10 17:01:59 adksfhaskdljhf: ah, yes. that would be different. :) So you're going to be needing to build some kernel modules, fortunately theres a howto on the maemo site for that which appears to be accurate Feb 10 17:02:14 i have mounted something on os2008 with mount -o loop, so i imagine loopback is supported Feb 10 17:02:25 unless someone made a package for iso9660 already Feb 10 17:02:56 hey barddbr_, was it on a minisd card or was it on the internal filesystem? Feb 10 17:03:21 it was on the local fs Feb 10 17:03:23 wouldn't matter Feb 10 17:03:53 i didnt know if it would, like if i mounted the mmc using a /dev/ Feb 10 17:03:59 i just tried mounting it on mmc2.. it worked Feb 10 17:04:38 loopback would happen at the VFS layer, you can even mount them over a network share (though I wouldn't suggest it as an amazingly good idea, especially for a journaled filesystem on the loop) Feb 10 17:04:39 i dont know the particulars, but it seems you could mount a fs as ext2 or ext3 that is on an mmc Feb 10 17:05:28 so the loopback block device, like in another *nix, is a virtual device that emulates a fs? Feb 10 17:05:36 no Feb 10 17:05:46 The loopback device is a virtual device that emulates a block layer device Feb 10 17:06:42 it points the block layer handlers to the file (and resolves contiguous data issues at the vfs layer). It's a pretty horrible hack all things considered but does the trick in most cases. Feb 10 17:07:19 well, that sounds right Feb 10 17:07:42 But it also leads to double-caching where the VFS write cache for the filesystem hits the dirty timer and writes out, thinking it's complete & safe Feb 10 17:07:46 hey dragorn, where do i find that FAQ on maemo module building? Feb 10 17:08:08 but in reality it's just turned into another filesystem call, which is then cached again until the write timeout on the host filesystem triggers Feb 10 17:08:18 im just trying to use the loopback for ro Feb 10 17:08:24 Making the continuity of your filesystem a little scary. Feb 10 17:08:26 yeah RO is fine Feb 10 17:08:44 uh, maemo.org, docs, howtos, 4.0, "building the kernel" or somesuch Feb 10 17:10:43 so dragorn, do you use the native WM or have you used any other? Feb 10 17:11:18 it's worked well enough for me and I didn't feel like losing all the existing apps Feb 10 17:12:06 i didnt know if anything could be more efficient than hildon Feb 10 17:12:29 probably, yes, but then you lose all the existing apps that need hildon Feb 10 17:12:46 and dragging windows around at 800x400 didn't do much for me Feb 10 17:13:17 i just need certain apps... i hate bloat Feb 10 17:13:51 so does is there a default .config with the kernel source that matches the distro? Feb 10 17:14:10 ah nm Feb 10 17:14:13 defconfig Feb 10 17:14:37 geez Feb 10 17:14:41 theres a command to gen the maemo config, it's in the howto Feb 10 17:14:46 yeah Feb 10 17:14:57 this is alot of work to mount a freakin iso Feb 10 17:15:18 can't you mount the iso elsewhere and extract what you need? Feb 10 17:17:48 maybe, but i just like to be able to carry my oreilly bookshelf with me in a convenient format Feb 10 17:18:14 o'rly bookshelf? Feb 10 17:18:18 alterego: any news on your new server setup? Are you able to send me the current ruby-maemo deb so that I can host it myself until your setup is back on its feet? Feb 10 17:18:19 yeah Feb 10 17:18:31 wont it work if you just put it all into a folder? Feb 10 17:18:55 having to mount an iso from shell doesn't sound terribly convenient :) Feb 10 17:19:00 probably Feb 10 17:19:08 Spakman, I've copied the files to here: http://alterego.freeshell.org/Ruby-Maemo.tar.gz Feb 10 17:19:16 Spakman, my server should be up tomorrow. Feb 10 17:19:27 plus, if you have it in folder form you can trim the fat from the stuff you never need Feb 10 17:19:32 alternately, ill just rdesktop to another machine Feb 10 17:19:39 you could always throw it on a big SD card and carry that with you for when you need it Feb 10 17:19:40 I'm just testing the current network setup, then I just need to update the DNS information on my domains. Feb 10 17:20:06 alterego: great, thanks. Good luck with it. Feb 10 17:20:31 alterego: has there been much progress with GtkMozEmbed? Feb 10 17:20:54 i find having a whole bookshelf in digital form is not convenient for long trips and random toilet breaks. Feb 10 17:21:19 Spakman, yeah, it will be in my next release. Feb 10 17:21:26 its simple with a real book to cull a random page and use in an emergency, but with digital devices you can never clean them properly Feb 10 17:22:00 that actually sounds painful Feb 10 17:23:09 god man, im not a masochist - you learn quickly that a stylus isnt meant for THAT Feb 10 17:23:50 alterego: cool! Feb 10 17:23:59 :) Feb 10 17:24:20 Spakman, yup. I want to see you create a desktop applet using the HTML renderer :P Feb 10 17:27:32 Does anyone elsee think that there needs to be a 'applets' only category on maemo's download page? Feb 10 17:31:01 sounds like something a tag could do Feb 10 17:31:58 oh, hm Feb 10 17:32:15 * sp3000 can't tell if the categories are tags :) Feb 10 17:33:07 (in that they're n:n rather than 1:n, that is) Feb 10 17:34:50 alterego: very nice sounding, I look forward to playing with it. Feb 10 17:41:58 anybody know how to remap the back button to the menu button on the n810? Feb 10 17:48:41 hi, all, i'm trying to compile a package for arm target in scratchbox, but i found that lots of devel packages are missing, like gtk+-2.0, however, compiling for x86 is fine. what am i missing here? BTW, i did the Chinook SDK automatic installation. thanks. Feb 10 17:57:14 is there anyway to get microb running in the scratchbox? Feb 10 17:57:35 jga23, cross compile it Feb 10 17:58:34 jga23: http://browser.garage.maemo.org/docs/build_howto.html Feb 10 18:00:09 alterego: microb w/o a ui is moderately useless :( Feb 10 18:00:09 btw, microb's site doesn't work in firefox 3 proper Feb 10 18:00:21 michele_: eh?

Feb 10 18:41:12 as far as I know there is no olsr support Feb 10 18:41:45 i'm not sure it's possible w/ the limited capabilities of the wifi drivers Feb 10 18:42:02 tho if it only uses data frames it ought to be Feb 10 18:42:37 hi Feb 10 18:57:17 dragorn, ping Feb 10 19:04:23 Hi!anybody has personal navicore? Private me Feb 10 19:09:06 Hi!anybody has personal navicore 2007? Private me Feb 10 19:12:45 hey, any have any idea why pages won't load once i move from a 3G into one where there is only GPRS? Feb 10 19:12:59 pages load fine on my N80 (which is tethered to my N810) Feb 10 19:22:54 Hi!anybody has personal navicore 2007? Private me Feb 10 19:29:34 is there a mail client wich support imap folders ? Feb 10 19:32:22 Hi!anybody has personal navicore 2007? Private me Feb 10 19:44:25 anybody know how to remap the hardware keys on the n810? Feb 10 20:06:41 Hello all, I would need some info on the gold pinouts found under/near the battery of the n810. I found the info on the n770 but just can't find it for the n810. I want to have a serial console, or at least see where my custom kernel panics. I have my PL2303 usb-serial ready for mod, just don't know where to make contact on the it. I just feel I don;t OWN the device until I see the kernel boot. I did output the console on the f Feb 10 20:07:56 you cut off at "console on the f" Feb 10 20:08:25 it's more fun to just imagine what could have been after the f Feb 10 20:08:31 :) Feb 10 20:08:43 ... framebuffer, but that adds other problems :) Thanks for any info and pointers. Feb 10 20:08:50 "I did output the console on the fridge, but it only told me I needed to get milk" Feb 10 20:10:27 "I did output the console on the first car I ever owned, I never did get that back together, it was a horrible wiring mess" Feb 10 20:11:48 Well on the framebuffer it boots, then enter the rebooting game, so I don't have the time to see the output. Feb 10 20:12:11 To bad for your car, must have been a big lost ! Feb 10 20:12:38 I was quoting you :P Feb 10 20:13:18 Yeah I know :) Feb 10 20:13:37 heh Feb 10 20:13:58 modest support imap folders ? Feb 10 20:14:34 juke: yes Feb 10 20:16:06 Tester_: how can i choose the folder subscription ? Feb 10 20:16:33 juke: dont know ;) Feb 10 20:26:26 perhaps it is possible to log boot to somewhere on mmc, then read the bootlog with a cardreader on pc? genghis_lko, ... Feb 10 20:27:31 Yes pupnik .. for general boot process it sure is possible .. but not where my problem occurs ... fs not mounted yet Feb 10 20:29:24 Hy, the my problem: is possible to use Skype Video on N800? Feb 10 20:32:58 hmm, that confused me for a minute Feb 10 20:33:21 work pc must be having troubles Feb 10 20:35:49 thank you nokia for the fixed busybox vi in os2008 Feb 10 20:37:50 * pupnik dances the nfs dance Feb 10 20:38:06 http://maemo.org/community/wiki/settingupnfs/ Feb 10 20:39:30 faster testing cycles... should have done this ages ago Feb 10 20:40:23 My requirements of knowing the pinouts are also a caprice of knowing everything about my toy and the possibilities. And I love minicom so much ! Feb 10 20:41:07 Yes nfs is quite faster for rootfs dev, and won't reduce lifetime of any used media. Feb 10 20:56:04 whee xaos fractal browser is fast on the n810 Feb 10 20:56:11 I would want to make a video called from n800 to PC, is possible? Feb 10 20:56:27 Gizmo, metis. Feb 10 20:56:34 hey how do you make the tablet input via pen and fingerboard work once you disconnect a bt keyboard? I am forced to restart when I want to do it Feb 10 20:56:44 GeneralAntilles, ok Feb 10 20:56:48 Turn off bluetooth. Feb 10 20:56:53 You may not be disconnecting properly Feb 10 20:57:02 Try letting it sleep (timeout is usually 3 minutes) Feb 10 20:57:23 GeneralAntilles: yeah, the Bluetooth B is white Feb 10 20:57:44 GeneralAntilles: but it still doesn't want to use pen Feb 10 20:58:19 even after I turn bluetooth off Feb 10 20:58:23 it still doesn't go back Feb 10 20:59:17 GeneralAntilles, for you will arrive the video in skype for n800? Feb 10 20:59:42 Haven't a clue. Feb 10 21:02:57 GeneralAntilles: is that at me? Feb 10 21:03:21 No, metis. Feb 10 21:03:34 EruditeHermit, there's a bug on bugzilla about it somewhere. Feb 10 21:03:47 I think if you get stuck in the no-vkb situation, you have to reboot. Feb 10 21:04:03 Letting the keyboard sleep itself doesn't seem to cause trouble, though. Feb 10 21:04:03 that sucks Feb 10 21:04:16 well It did Feb 10 21:04:21 it just slept and disconnected Feb 10 21:04:28 but it still remained in kbd mode Feb 10 21:04:30 I've never had the vkb disappear on sleep. Feb 10 21:04:55 thats annoying Feb 10 21:05:01 I hope the fix that soon Feb 10 21:06:01 what model bt keyboard is it, and has it done this since you got it Feb 10 21:06:11 It's not particularly reproducible as far as I can tell. Feb 10 21:06:35 lcuk: yes it has, its an iGo bluetooth keyboard Feb 10 21:06:52 GeneralAntilles, what model bt keyboards have you got? Feb 10 21:07:19 lcuk: its called iGo Stowaway Feb 10 21:07:28 iGo Feb 10 21:07:38 EruditeHermit, have you used it on any other devices or did you just get it for 8x0? Feb 10 21:07:48 lcuk: just for n800 Feb 10 21:08:12 have you got any other machine you could test it on, just to rule it out as a factor Feb 10 21:08:25 lcuk: nope not really Feb 10 21:08:30 lcuk: perhaps my phone Feb 10 21:08:38 its not the keyboard Feb 10 21:08:40 I think Feb 10 21:08:55 because the blue bluetooth sign becomes white, signifying it is no longer paired Feb 10 21:08:59 i tend to agree, but its always worthwhile checking the things you can test here and now Feb 10 21:09:29 if it is no longer paired (because it timed out or I manually disconnect it) it should revert to vkbd Feb 10 21:15:42 hello, are there some problem with installing ogg support? i cant install the package Feb 10 21:20:55 erm. Feb 10 21:22:19 ? Feb 10 21:23:10 on my n810 i have perl-base 5.8.3-3osso7, perl --version --> v5.8.3, in my SDK i have perl-base 5.8.3-3osso7, perl --version --> 5.8.4 . can anybody explain that to me? (Problem is, that perl-modules i build want perlapi-5.8.4 which isn't available, because packages are labeled 5.8.3 Feb 10 21:25:45 GeneralAntilles, Gizmo work to the video calls? Feb 10 21:28:50 crap Feb 10 21:28:57 how do i change a set wep key Feb 10 21:29:22 in os2008, i see the xml files and can try to edit the key info in them but last time i tired that it really b0rked things up Feb 10 21:30:16 s1d, what xml files? you're not editing gconf files are you? Feb 10 21:30:48 metis, like I said, yes. :) Feb 10 21:31:03 ah i found it Feb 10 21:31:13 if i go to connections -> edit i can fix it Feb 10 21:32:07 hehe i think i was in the past :( Feb 10 21:32:13 it was a bad idea :> Feb 10 21:32:32 but yah now it's working so happy days :) Feb 10 21:34:02 the water pipes in the basement of my apartment exploded last night Feb 10 21:34:05 now theres a pond! Feb 10 21:34:07 and no working water Feb 10 21:34:14 s1d, if you need to edit gconf settings some other time see gconftool-2 (or gconf-editor) Feb 10 21:34:24 oh Feb 10 21:34:58 editing by hand means trouble Feb 10 21:35:15 hehe Feb 10 21:35:23 do i edit the schema settings with the tool Feb 10 21:35:29 i can google the rest up Feb 10 21:35:32 thx for the tip Feb 10 21:38:57 lazy question: is there an easy build for kismet for n810 that will drop open wlans onto my gps data cache? Feb 10 21:53:07 800x480 on a 3" screen, wtf?! Feb 10 22:02:14 t_s_o: what seems to be the problem Feb 10 22:02:44 nothing much :P just wondering about how big the different elements will be on a screen like that... Feb 10 22:05:42 that depends on how many pixels you use to render them Feb 10 22:06:16 super smooth unaliased lines :) Feb 10 22:06:44 with correct focusing you could almost put it up to your eye and turn into maemoworld Feb 10 22:09:54 I want to try one of those fresnel lenses to turn it into a 10" screen ;) Feb 10 22:10:09 anyone have experience with Feb 10 22:10:17 the BTMicro mouse?

Feb 10 22:17:40 this would be perfect if it was bluetooth.. http://www.akihabaranews.com/en/news-15489-The+USB+Mouse+Pad+by+Evergreen+%21%21.html Feb 10 22:17:57 looks like you use your thumb Feb 10 22:18:43 fysa, that looks cool Feb 10 22:19:18 think I will try that BT-500. has good reviews and can use two AA batteries (i.e., alkaline to last forever..) Feb 10 22:20:17 sorry, two AAA Feb 10 22:20:43 Haha, sexy Feb 10 22:20:50 Mouse+Gamepad :D Feb 10 22:23:41 ls Feb 10 22:23:47 ih ih Feb 10 22:23:50 Hello Feb 10 22:24:17 (too many windows open) Feb 10 22:24:17 'if it were' is the proper use of the subjunctive, not 'if it was' Feb 10 22:24:25 syntax error fysa Feb 10 22:25:17 pupnik: true, but soooo many people use 'was' when speaking that gets me confused Feb 10 22:30:30 me hands Tama^2 a case of trout ammunition Feb 10 22:31:31 * Tama^2 goes around slapping his officemates with large trouts Feb 10 22:31:32 broken, stupid language that reduces descriptive power and accuracy is not to be accepted without resistance Feb 10 22:31:35 :) Feb 10 22:32:07 yes, everyone should do like the French xD Feb 10 22:35:42 drop their IQ level? Feb 10 22:39:54 Not sure about that, I was referring to language protectionism ;) Feb 10 23:03:18 does the n8?0 suspend or hibernate? i'm using os2008 on a n800 Feb 10 23:04:22 also, how do you highlight/cut/paste text with an800 since there is no keyboard with which to ctrl x/ctrl c/ctrl v? Feb 10 23:04:33 neither, but it has a very low power idle mode Feb 10 23:04:46 how do you set idle mode then? Feb 10 23:05:00 automatic Feb 10 23:05:03 you leave it idle.. :) Feb 10 23:05:59 ok Feb 10 23:06:20 you can copy and paste by highlighting the text then click on hold on it with the stylus and select copy Feb 10 23:06:20 what about cut-n-paste on the keyboardless n800? Feb 10 23:06:34 selecting it with the stylus Feb 10 23:07:03 when i try that an "icon" appears of a circluar arrow momentarily Feb 10 23:07:24 double tap and drag to select Feb 10 23:07:31 ok Feb 10 23:07:35 i try that, thanks! Feb 10 23:08:55 you know, i'm trying to install pymaemo for mworldclock and i can't find it any where, either as installed or installable under application manager and everything is checked off correctly under app manager > tools ... Feb 10 23:09:27 http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/mclock/ Feb 10 23:11:22 if the app you are installing lists it as a dependence then it's pulled in automatically Feb 10 23:12:10 f you want to install only pymaemo I think you have to become root and use #apt-get install Feb 10 23:12:18 ok Feb 10 23:15:47 can i put the machine into a locked state from the console? as in exactly what happens when i slide the lock. Feb 10 23:16:30 I think it is possible via dbus but it is not documented Feb 10 23:16:57 hmmmm, cos then i wouldn't need to get it out of its cradle just to lock it Feb 10 23:17:34 i know it unlocks when keyboard slide occurs, and relocks if you close it again, but it doesnt lock if you have used the keyboard whilst open Feb 10 23:17:57 Tama^2, have you got any documentation on it? Feb 10 23:17:58 ;) Feb 10 23:18:12 it keeps sayiong "unable to install"!! Feb 10 23:18:19 nope, sorry Feb 10 23:19:11 ill have to start poking Feb 10 23:19:31 poke 58554,2 Feb 10 23:19:39 poke 58555,2 Feb 10 23:19:44 [NO-CARRIER] Feb 10 23:20:47 it keeps sayiong "unable to install mClock" but no why or what i might do about it!!!!! Feb 10 23:21:35 try it from the command line and see what other info it gives Feb 10 23:22:14 (is not an expert) but i think its something like "apt-get install mclock" with the gui installer closed. someone tell me if thats correct? Feb 11 00:12:11 anyone here use xforwarded apps on their tablet much? Feb 11 00:35:01 I just set it up last night. Feb 11 01:13:59 fysa, got any good way to do text input? Feb 11 01:14:20 i've got xvkbd and matchbox-keyboard, but neither really seems usable Feb 11 01:14:35 i suppose on an N810 the hardware keyboard would make it easy Feb 11 01:14:50 I use synergy.. ;) Feb 11 01:32:08 does that mean that you aren't actually entering text using the touchscreen then? Feb 11 01:32:29 or does synergy work with the hildon keyboard somehow? Feb 11 01:34:45 yay, i'm able to get xforwarded apps to use the LCARS theme by running sapwood in Ubuntu :) Feb 11 01:36:52 Synergy means you're using your laptop/desktop's keyboard. Feb 11 01:37:12 I use my N800 as a third monitor via synergy and X11 forwarding Feb 11 01:37:35 but I ended up doing it through the KDE debs. Feb 11 01:37:39 thats what i thought, just wanted to make sure Feb 11 01:37:56 get regular windows and a real mouse cursor Feb 11 01:38:27 and can use the KDE desktop widget virtual keyboard Feb 11 01:38:49 oh, i haven't tried that one yet Feb 11 01:39:13 i don't think i'm going to unless i can do it without installing lots of kde stuff though Feb 11 01:39:21 it was cake.. Feb 11 01:39:25 you just need 2GB for it though. Feb 11 01:39:29 it's debs. Feb 11 01:39:57 klavier? Feb 11 01:40:23 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14680 Feb 11 01:40:37 i'm installing that now, only needed 11 other packages Feb 11 01:40:40 it has a dynamically resizable virtual keyboard Feb 11 01:40:59 built into KDE I think. Feb 11 01:41:11 firefox works very well. Feb 11 01:41:27 haven't tried it away from home yet .. ssh -C may help. Feb 11 01:41:51 kvkbd Feb 11 01:41:55 http://pan4os.info/pics/kvkbd.png Feb 11 01:42:07 i was disappointed by the grabanddrag on firefox on n800 Feb 11 01:42:27 i like it a lot on the desktop though Feb 11 01:42:43 not responsive? Feb 11 01:42:57 seemed OK -- I don't use kinetic scrolling as much as scrolling multiplier though Feb 11 01:43:15 i.e., move your finger 10 pixels, 3x scrolls it 30 pixels Feb 11 01:43:31 scrolling down works ok, though a little jerky, but i couldn't get the inertial scrolling to work when scrolling up Feb 11 01:43:43 just to nullify the scrolling treadmill problem of the internal browser Feb 11 01:43:47 just on n800, with a mouse it works great Feb 11 01:43:59 yes. mouse with KDE on N800 is very nice. Feb 11 01:44:19 I will order a BT mouse and hunt for a travel case this week. Feb 11 01:44:54 will a BT mouse "just work" when paired? Feb 11 01:45:08 I have a business trip later this month -- last time I relied on hildon and a keyboard, but KDE and a mouse/keyboard will be much more productive. Feb 11 01:46:29 You need "icons.tar" to enable the mouse cursor in KDE, and then a mouse polling program. It's a bit of a hack because of problems with the built-in X server, but penguinbait seems to be using it fine. Feb 11 01:46:55 i'm not so interested in filling my memory card with KDE stuff... but I'm tempted to try the debian armel chroot trick again to see if that has improved any Feb 11 01:47:23 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15389 Feb 11 01:47:37 You should get a mouse that 'just works' in debian armel. Feb 11 01:47:41 I agree, that is a much better long-term solution. Feb 11 01:48:33 I wonder if you could carry two N800s.. Feb 11 01:48:40 and synergy between them ;) Feb 11 01:48:51 hmm klavier over xforwarding fills the screen just like xvkbd does Feb 11 01:48:54 Haha Feb 11 01:48:56 Dual head! Feb 11 01:49:01 dual-head IT. Feb 11 01:49:11 yes, that's what KDE fixes leif.. Feb 11 01:49:23 you get a regular window manager. Feb 11 01:49:24 matchbox-keyboard doesn't though, instead it fills the lower half and stays up over all programs until killed Feb 11 01:49:31 yeah i get that :) Feb 11 01:50:18 i want to keep using the matchbox window manager though Feb 11 01:50:56 http://youtube.com/watch?v=uIiP7D3cg7Y Feb 11 01:51:00 some forwarded programs actually show up in the task navigator now Feb 11 01:51:08 gimp and firefox among them Feb 11 01:51:14 nice Feb 11 01:51:17 if only i had keyboard input i'd be all set Feb 11 01:53:50 here's a tech tip free of charge: enabling DMA mode on a DVD drive makes transfers much faster Feb 11 01:56:56 s/ on a DVD drive / / Feb 11 02:00:27 that youtube video doesn't encourage me to run KDE on the tablet... especially when konq opens and everything draws slowly Feb 11 02:00:58 i see the appeal, but i get the impression it is plenty slow Feb 11 02:01:25 maybe i'll try it when i get a new SD card though Feb 11 02:03:06 is it possible to use the flash plugin from ITOS in KDE? Feb 11 02:06:28 haven't tried Feb 11 02:07:21 "Lost my stylus, so I'm using a piece of dried spaghetti here" <-- classic Feb 11 02:07:37 heh Feb 11 02:14:47 I didn't realize that KDE could be started from the standard Hildon UI Feb 11 02:14:52 I assumed that one had to choose one or the other Feb 11 02:41:36 anyone here have a2dp working for mplayer? i need it for the train to/from work. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Feb 11 02:59:56 2008
