**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Mar 04 10:59:57 2008 Mar 04 11:00:22 but that reminded me that I had to update n8x0 config Mar 04 11:00:23 just grab sdk and compile it yourself, or google for packages Mar 04 11:01:01 i have seen them in .debs too Mar 04 11:01:08 I urinate on maemo sdk Mar 04 11:01:14 it's your problem Mar 04 11:01:19 works great for me Mar 04 11:01:35 hrw, if I remember correctly, you haven't even tried it :) Mar 04 11:01:39 I use OpenEmbedded to build maemo stuff Mar 04 11:01:54 whatever floats your boat Mar 04 11:02:03 jku: I had enough scary stories from OH guys about it Mar 04 11:06:25 I don't want to try SBox, I'm lazy also :) Mar 04 11:06:54 lazy to run 2 scripts? Mar 04 11:07:09 to build 1500 packages? Mar 04 11:07:18 in OE itworks fine as 'bitbake maemo-image-ynezz' and build complete feed Mar 04 11:07:22 shit Mar 04 11:07:25 why should you? Mar 04 11:07:43 it doesn't builds anything Mar 04 11:07:55 ok Mar 04 11:07:57 *build Mar 04 11:08:19 simply downloads precompiled packages Mar 04 11:08:30 in the same way debian does Mar 04 11:08:41 :) Mar 04 11:08:47 from where? Mar 04 11:09:31 __url=http://repository.maemo.org/stable/chinook Mar 04 11:10:01 and scratchbox from: Mar 04 11:10:02 __download_source_deb=http://scratchbox.org/download/files/sbox-releases/branches/apophis/r4/deb Mar 04 11:10:17 or use install scripts, much easier Mar 04 11:10:30 I mean packages for device Mar 04 11:10:36 same repo Mar 04 11:11:05 KotCzarny, they haven't been tested to work without conflicts on device Mar 04 11:11:16 usually do, but still... Mar 04 11:11:52 maybe you misunderstand me, where is there for example vim package? Mar 04 11:11:53 define 'conflicts' Mar 04 11:12:07 ynezz, deeper in the tree Mar 04 11:12:50 i'm blind Mar 04 11:12:57 KotCzarny, it's not guaranteed that a package in SDK repo does not conflict with a system package on device Mar 04 11:14:11 if you want to play so safe just wait for os2009 Mar 04 11:15:14 KotCzarny: pls, can you give me URL of .deb packages repository I can put on my N810 so I can install Vim? Mar 04 11:15:33 deb http://repository.maemo.org/ chinook free non-free Mar 04 11:15:33 deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/ chinook free Mar 04 11:15:33 deb file:/home/sbox/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_4.0.1 chinook explicit Mar 04 11:15:33 deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras chinook free non-free Mar 04 11:15:44 I've those already Mar 04 11:15:56 500 http://mg.pov.lt chinook/experimental Packages Mar 04 11:15:57 500 http://mg.pov.lt chinook/user Packages Mar 04 11:16:06 those two has vim 7.0 Mar 04 11:16:11 KotCzarny, I do install stuff from SDK repo if I need something, just wanted to point out that they are not "packages for the device", they just usually work... Mar 04 11:17:00 thanks Mar 04 11:17:53 jku: what's the difference? Mar 04 11:18:16 software from nokia has more bugs than oss Mar 04 11:18:29 usually because it had less testing Mar 04 11:18:54 so i don't see your point as valid Mar 04 11:21:11 Kotzarny, these packages are made for the SDK not for ITOS Mar 04 11:21:46 works for me Mar 04 11:21:55 I didn't say they didn't Mar 04 11:22:17 then what's your point? Mar 04 11:23:30 point 1: using SDK packages on device is fine. Point 2: advising users to use SDK repositories on device without explaining the situation is wrong Mar 04 11:24:14 if you aim for corporate/commercial use, then yes Mar 04 11:24:39 otherwise one can 1/ don't fiddle, 2/ reflash and start again Mar 04 11:24:41 so conflicting packages is ok by your standards? Mar 04 11:24:49 i'm used to slackware Mar 04 11:27:05 so you are used to lack of packaging or lack of deps Mar 04 11:27:30 never had any problem with it Mar 04 11:27:48 then everything must be fine Mar 04 11:28:01 if i get stuck so bad that i can't remember what package has particular file i just grep MANIFEST.gz Mar 04 11:28:45 incidentally, I think the repository naming was unfortunate: we have repository.maemo.org and repository.maemo.org/extras Mar 04 11:29:09 it sounds like the forst one is an official one and the second is an optional one Mar 04 11:29:12 life, now fix it or get over it Mar 04 11:29:52 jku, that is correct Mar 04 11:30:13 third parties can upload packages to extras Mar 04 11:30:39 hi pupnik Mar 04 11:30:41 :) Mar 04 11:30:41 pupnik, yeah but it's not obvious that the first one is a SDK repository, not meant for devices Mar 04 11:30:56 oh ok Mar 04 11:31:19 great Mar 04 11:31:28 so sdk is not meant to produce packages for device Mar 04 11:31:29 :> Mar 04 11:31:42 yes it is meant exactly for that Mar 04 11:31:54 ? Mar 04 11:32:12 if following your logic then it's not Mar 04 11:32:13 :) Mar 04 11:32:24 i see it as a kind of emulation Mar 04 11:32:32 to not crosscompile Mar 04 11:33:08 it's like booting vmware/windows and creating execs in it Mar 04 11:33:57 sigh. SDK repository is meant to be used in the SDK. You can build packages for the devices in the SDK. Not difficult or contradictory at all. Mar 04 11:34:15 sdk emulates the device. Mar 04 11:34:21 complete with it's x server Mar 04 11:35:45 pupnik: have you seen my results? :> Mar 04 11:36:25 i saw - very good Mar 04 11:36:34 :) Mar 04 11:37:13 so you used 1) kernel patch for high speed dsp, 2) gst mp3 and 3) special mencoder settings? Mar 04 11:37:28 nope Mar 04 11:37:46 perhaps you could summarize on a post on ITT or maemo wiki Mar 04 11:37:47 only kernel patch to disable high speed dsp and unlock gst in mplayer Mar 04 11:38:02 do you have a mplayer binary to share? Mar 04 11:38:22 oh nm... i don't want to patch my kernel Mar 04 11:38:24 sure, but it's only a 2 points delete Mar 04 11:38:36 pupnik: it's not that bad Mar 04 11:39:01 i simply replaced the profile that would switch kernel to 330/220 with one from 400/130 Mar 04 11:39:12 otherwise unchanged Mar 04 11:39:30 does that require a whole new kernel? Mar 04 11:39:44 whole? Mar 04 11:40:00 new kernel, or kernel module, or echo xyz > proc/?? Mar 04 11:40:33 it can be modularized i guess Mar 04 11:40:47 but it's much more work that way Mar 04 11:40:48 :) Mar 04 11:41:06 ie. if you don't want to reflash Mar 04 11:41:11 that policy stuff should really be exposed under /sys Mar 04 11:41:24 isn't it 'nuff to tell kernel to use performance governor? Mar 04 11:41:26 tama: it is, partially Mar 04 11:41:31 inz: nope Mar 04 11:41:45 because it can switch to 330/220 Mar 04 11:41:53 even at highest performance level Mar 04 11:41:55 you can read stuff back but cannot set profiles Mar 04 11:45:32 ò.ő Mar 04 11:54:04 argh. Mar 04 11:54:10 ~curse nokia flash scheme Mar 04 11:54:11 May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your most sensitive regions, nokia flash scheme ! Mar 04 11:55:41 crap Mar 04 11:55:45 fscking crap Mar 04 11:55:46 you mean FIASCO image? Mar 04 11:56:14 no - method used for flashing Mar 04 11:56:20 anyway, mrrau.dyndns.org:23280/n800/mpu_h/ Mar 04 11:56:36 unplug cables, power off, plug usb, power on, pray that flasher will start Mar 04 11:56:37 if anyone wants to test low dsp speed profile Mar 04 11:56:49 hrw: flash from within the device Mar 04 11:57:21 KotCzarny: how? Mar 04 11:58:04 use http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/#initfs Mar 04 11:58:23 I will try it, kot Mar 04 11:58:28 i have flashed bootloader and kernel today Mar 04 11:59:19 i won't touch the rootfs though because i'm planning to move it to sd card anyway Mar 04 11:59:34 it will be my failsafe then Mar 04 11:59:36 :) Mar 04 12:01:20 hrw, I've not had any trouble with flashing Mar 04 12:02:05 inz: I lack non-hub usb ports Mar 04 12:02:18 half of mainboard usb ports stopped working already Mar 04 12:09:09 KotCzarny: thx again - it worked Mar 04 12:09:17 Nokia-N810-50-2:~# cat /proc/filesystems |wc Mar 04 12:09:22 27 50 327 Mar 04 12:09:31 ext2/ext3/fuse in kernel now Mar 04 12:10:04 hrw, ahh, that might be a problem Mar 04 12:10:11 :> Mar 04 12:10:25 btw. what's the limit for a kernel image? 2mb? Mar 04 12:11:02 2MB Mar 04 12:11:09 mine has 1.9 Mar 04 12:11:24 -rw-r--r-- 1 hrw hrw 1939912 Mar 4 12:13 zImage-2.6.21-osso71-nokia800-20080304110918 Mar 04 12:11:38 ext2, ext3, fuse, nfs, cifs added into kernel Mar 04 12:12:16 Machine: Nokia N800 Mar 04 12:12:16 Memory policy: ECC disabled, Data cache writeback Mar 04 12:12:20 hum Mar 04 12:12:46 can it be reenabled or it's non-ecc ? Mar 04 12:12:48 hrw, maybe you should consider modules?-) Mar 04 12:12:55 inz: what for? Mar 04 12:13:10 inz: there is 2MB for kernel. my kernel still fits there Mar 04 12:13:26 hrw, if you need som'n more in the kernel Mar 04 12:13:45 one can always put ppp into modules Mar 04 12:13:47 :) Mar 04 12:20:28 ok, bed time, bbl Mar 04 12:22:25 bye KotCzarny Mar 04 12:25:19 mount.cifs is not present in maemo repos too? Mar 04 12:35:27 alix.lan:/srv/nfs/sources 34.3G 14.3G 18.3G 44% /mnt Mar 04 12:47:46 the freshmaker! Mar 04 12:57:29 hi ppl, quick question (im at work) i know its possible to boot from my sd card, but can i take a full backup of my current filesystem onto my mem card and restore it if i ever have to re-flash? Mar 04 12:58:09 ie straight after a flash operation just run my restoreall script and it will unzip everything and replace entire disk - or is this not possible because bits in use and mmc2 is mounted etc Mar 04 12:58:35 im not on about a partial backup/restore cycle that the backup tool does Mar 04 13:00:00 * pupnik puts on Alan Parsons, "You can't take it with you" Mar 04 13:01:56 havin a lazy day pupnik or are you beavering away Mar 04 13:05:26 trying to figure out problems with xkbd Mar 04 13:06:06 right now dosbox isn't very usable for n800 owners on OS2008 due to xkbd problems Mar 04 13:07:38 when yoda said "there is no 'try' - just 'do'" i don't think he was talking about amateur programming Mar 04 13:11:14 yeah, clearly there's both try and do, not to mention catch and while Mar 04 13:11:34 :D Mar 04 13:11:55 excellent Mar 04 13:14:00 sp, there's no try in C Mar 04 13:14:10 sp, with C you can only do Mar 04 13:22:20 true Mar 04 13:22:31 C is the language of the jedi Mar 04 13:24:21 nahhh, a jedi codes with his mind. the power of the force moves the bits into rebelion against the evil microsith Mar 04 13:25:00 But that works only on computers that have weak minds Mar 04 13:25:40 r u saying the force is just a hook for some cheesy cult? Mar 04 13:26:06 cos they only work on weak minds Mar 04 13:26:33 The Jedi mind tricks only work on weak minds too Mar 04 13:27:16 nahhh, i bet it would work on pres. bush. ohhhhh i see Mar 04 13:54:27 Morning. Mar 04 13:56:56 hola Mar 04 14:20:11 hi, just bought n800 and flashed os2008 in it, but for some reason basic programs doesn't work, like screen or irssi? irssi tells : NO WINDOWS: -!- Irssi: Invalid charset: CP1252 setupterm() failed for TERM=xterm: 0 Can't initialize screen handling, quitting. Mar 04 14:21:23 thux: what repo did you get irssi from? Mar 04 14:21:34 and version? apt-cache show irssi Mar 04 14:22:53 pupnik: form internet tablet forum I check version Mar 04 14:25:39 thux: gconv in maemo is compiled without cp1252 support Mar 04 14:25:46 there's a bug filed in maemo.org about this Mar 04 14:26:04 can you configure irssi to use some other charset Mar 04 14:26:05 ? Mar 04 14:26:12 perhaps something actually sane, like utf-8? Mar 04 14:26:31 mgedmin: I can try if it opens Mar 04 14:27:17 pupnik: Version: 0.8.12-1 Mar 04 14:27:25 I also wonder if you've got ncurses-base installed Mar 04 14:27:43 i check Mar 04 14:28:39 mgedmin: i didn't have will install it now Mar 04 14:28:57 if it fixes irssi, then irssi should depend on it Mar 04 14:29:08 wonder why dpkg didn't complain from missing ncurses Mar 04 14:32:10 why should it? if irssi doesn't say it depends on it Mar 04 14:32:22 ncurses-base has all those terminfo files describing xterm control sequences Mar 04 14:32:39 I think it might be an essential package on debian, thus always installed and not mentioned in the dependencies Mar 04 14:34:07 ok Mar 04 14:34:16 hm, no TTLS/PAP on OS2008? Mar 04 14:34:40 now i can't login on my university's wifi :/ Mar 04 14:35:12 ncurses-base is debian essential Mar 04 14:35:40 curiously enough, at least n800 didn't have it in the base installation Mar 04 14:40:31 thanks irssi started to work Mar 04 14:40:57 what about screen, is it permission problem with it?
