**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Aug 30 02:59:57 2008 Aug 30 03:22:03 could something like this ( http://tinyurl.com/6feedg ) work with a n800? I mean the remote control, not the headphones Aug 30 03:39:43 hey Aug 30 03:47:00 there's really no way to make n800 chaege from usb? Aug 30 03:47:07 charge' Aug 30 03:48:29 el3kt: with a usb to powerplug adapter Aug 30 04:28:30 Hi, I have an n810 that was working with USBModem on a Treo 755p. It's stopped working and I can't get it going again. Can anyone help me? Aug 30 04:28:48 My MacBook can still tether to it. Aug 30 04:37:54 Is that neccesary? I had my N800 tethered to my Treo 650 via bluetooth, with no 3rd-party software Aug 30 05:21:12 guys. can I use a laptop keyboard through the USB? Nokia N800 (OS2008) Aug 30 05:22:12 maybe, depends on how much current does it want Aug 30 05:22:23 you might need a powered USB hub Aug 30 05:23:07 i mean, the laptop is running Aug 30 05:24:27 uhhmmm Aug 30 05:24:35 You mean, the actual keyboard laptop has Aug 30 05:24:43 it'd need a piece of software Aug 30 05:25:03 I know none program like that Aug 30 05:25:45 I'd like to though Aug 30 05:26:28 a piece of software that makes a certain USB port appear like a device Aug 30 05:26:35 well Aug 30 05:26:37 there is one Aug 30 05:26:41 but i am not sure if it will work that way Aug 30 05:26:43 let me find it Aug 30 05:26:46 it should Aug 30 05:26:55 although hub-to-hub connection is unsafe Aug 30 05:27:06 you'd need a special hacked cable for that Aug 30 05:28:01 the cable is not a problem Aug 30 05:28:05 it is Aug 30 05:28:16 ok, the N800 comes with a USB cable, right? Aug 30 05:28:20 you cannot provide voltage to a working USB hub Aug 30 05:28:35 hm Aug 30 05:28:37 that cable is for n8x0 as a client Aug 30 05:28:44 although it should work Aug 30 05:28:48 but there is a program that makes it a host Aug 30 05:28:59 trick is, you will switch n8x0 into host mode Aug 30 05:29:09 http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/usbhost/ Aug 30 05:29:16 this will burn the port in your laptop ;P Aug 30 05:29:23 http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/usbcontrol/ Aug 30 05:29:32 hm Aug 30 05:29:33 no no, you don't get it Aug 30 05:29:40 so if it was an external keyboard, it would work? Aug 30 05:29:46 but if it's a laptop's one, it won't? Aug 30 05:29:50 yes, definitely Aug 30 05:29:57 i see Aug 30 05:29:59 but hub-to-hub is unsafe Aug 30 05:30:39 you'd have to somehow put n8x0 usb into client mode, while all the software and such works like in host mode Aug 30 05:30:46 http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/2008/05/nokia-n800-n810-how-to-connect-ordinary.html Aug 30 05:30:49 or simulate USB OTG on the other side too Aug 30 05:31:05 and cheat that it's a device to device connection Aug 30 05:31:13 and that the other side is providing power Aug 30 05:31:40 (the laptop side) Aug 30 05:31:45 aha Aug 30 05:31:47 i get it now Aug 30 05:31:48 this is some fairly low-level programming Aug 30 05:31:50 thanks a bunch Aug 30 05:34:53 anyone here is Python/GTK developer? Aug 30 05:34:58 i have a very stupid question Aug 30 05:35:32 don't be shy Aug 30 06:13:23 hi everyone Aug 30 06:26:06 night Aug 30 06:31:08 moin Aug 30 06:37:13 gregorovius_ / AStorm / GeneralAntilles : One of /etc/osso/* defines MYDOCS_DIR which you can use to change the location from /home/user/MyDocs. Anything assuming ~/MyDocs has a bug. I use it to put mine on /media/mmc2 without having the space used of booting off it. Aug 30 06:39:31 oh, I'll check it out, thanks jaffa Aug 30 06:39:48 Jaffa, so what you're trying to tell me is that N810s have no storage? :P Aug 30 06:39:56 would be good to add that to the wiki, as there's al ready a 'mydocs' page Aug 30 06:41:15 GeneralAntilles: no, that I want the space for other things ;-p Aug 30 06:42:47 Jaffa: in /etc/osso/ I only have a file named osso-addressbook-stop.sh Aug 30 06:44:12 osso-af-init/af-defines.sh: # The MyDocs directory Aug 30 06:44:12 osso-af-init/af-defines.sh: export MYDOCSDIR=$HOME/MyDocs Aug 30 06:44:12 osso-backup/osso-backup.conf: $HOME/MyDocs Aug 30 06:44:12 osso-global-search/locations.conf: $HOME/MyDocs Aug 30 06:45:11 well, it seems nokia is assuming ~/MyDocs Aug 30 06:49:50 gregorovius_: as the default, does that surprise? Aug 30 06:51:18 somewhat Aug 30 07:08:50 gregorovius_: You want af-defines.sh Aug 30 07:09:40 Jaffa: yes, I edited it and it seems to be working, except audio files are not being found when I put them into the .sounds folder Aug 30 07:13:17 canola isn't finding images in the .images folder as well =/ Aug 30 07:13:24 do you guys know anything about home screen applets? Aug 30 07:15:04 I don't... i'm sure some people in this channel do, but how many of them are awake, I don't know Aug 30 07:22:01 heh yah ... friday night and all :) Aug 30 07:22:17 <--- has no life Aug 30 07:23:11 Woo Aug 30 07:26:17 * qwerty12 knows he needs a new processor and graphics card when rendering the os2008 desktop makes his fan whir up :\ Aug 30 07:29:23 gregorovius_: you'll need to tell Canola about the new folder Aug 30 07:29:31 * Jaffa weddings Aug 30 07:29:38 (not mine) Aug 30 07:30:23 effing hell, how do you do a "/" on an N810 keyboard? Aug 30 07:30:27 Jaffa: it's a hidden folder, hence I can't choose it from canola Aug 30 07:30:40 it does have a 'sounds folder', but it didn't work Aug 30 07:32:25 gregorovius_: interested in a wacky way of doing it? Aug 30 07:32:57 does it involve rabbits or secret magic powder? Aug 30 07:33:04 No, that comes later Aug 30 07:33:19 * gregorovius_ is dissapointed Aug 30 07:33:26 tell me Aug 30 07:34:46 Make a folder with exactly the same numbers of characters in the folder that you want to add (including the .) and add it in canola. Copy the file ~/.canola/prefs/scanned_folders and use an hex editor to change the folder name. I'd say use vi on the tablet but the canola people seem to have some weird way of storing their settings. Aug 30 07:36:12 Oh, the folder has to be in the same path as the hidden one. Aug 30 07:36:23 funny Aug 30 07:36:28 yeah, that should work Aug 30 07:36:42 * qwerty12 goes back to figuring out how to input a "/" on an N810 keyboard ;) Aug 30 07:36:52 thanks Aug 30 07:37:10 np. I should just emulate an N800 instead >.< Aug 30 07:42:38 is there any way to modify the locking/unlocking behaviour? I don't really like power-enter to unlock Aug 30 07:42:53 i'd rather have a single short press or something like that Aug 30 07:43:28 No :(. mce is closed source. There is a open source clone which is very customisable (powerlaunch) but has some bugs. Aug 30 07:44:52 bummer Aug 30 07:44:59 that didn't quite work, btw Aug 30 07:45:05 canola isn't playing my files Aug 30 07:45:23 doesn't matter really, I can live with that Aug 30 07:51:37 * qwerty12 has to disable the "n810"'s keyboard. it's driving me effing mad. Aug 30 07:56:55 qwerty12, you mean the onscreen one? Aug 30 07:57:40 moontiger: no, the hardware one. except I'm using an emulated N810 so I don't actually have the N810 keyboard physically >.< Aug 30 07:58:03 ohhhhhhhhhh ... well the real one drives me f***ing mad too :| Aug 30 07:58:48 hehe. i'm messing around with gconftool, hopefully I can make it believe it doesn't have a keyboard and I'm using an external one :) Aug 30 08:00:19 heh :) Aug 30 08:00:29 anyways ... nn all Aug 30 08:42:09 hello Aug 30 08:54:07 i ask you a thing Aug 30 08:54:49 what this the distance that wi-fi can do if i got acees points in outdoor with antennas ? Aug 30 09:00:24 That's an unanswerable question. Aug 30 09:00:33 It depends on a huge variety of factors. Aug 30 09:00:58 Wifi can pretty much be LoS for as long a distance as you want with the right antenna and amplifier. Aug 30 09:02:09 ~lart Werror Aug 30 09:02:09 * infobot whacks Werror with a giant beaver's tail Aug 30 09:03:56 for example ? Aug 30 09:05:23 better without amplifier, cause of noise and never sync signal that could damage the RF POWER MODULE Aug 30 09:09:11 Doesn't matter Aug 30 09:09:18 It's not a question that can be answered in short. Aug 30 09:09:23 Google is your friend. Aug 30 09:12:00 i know Aug 30 09:12:16 but if you want we can listen this evening Aug 30 09:12:28 when i turn back from the sea Aug 30 09:12:33 bye bye paolo Aug 30 09:13:01 if you want a vauge answer, imo the wifi in the n800 is good Aug 30 09:50:52 Hi konfoo Aug 30 09:50:59 are u here Aug 30 09:54:31 qwerty12, iz palmos better then maemo? :P Aug 30 09:55:56 GAN800: I don't think so. I won't deny that it does have more apps and the handwriting recognition works better than maemo but I never liked it. When I smashed my Palm, I went and bought a Pocket PC and never looked back. Aug 30 09:56:08 lol Aug 30 09:56:24 Wasn't a serious question. ;) Aug 30 09:56:34 hehe :) Aug 30 09:57:10 Uploading transmission to extras wont work for me unless the autobuilder can run an sbrsh :P Aug 30 09:57:46 "event.c: In function `event_base_loop':event.c:528: internal compiler error: in verify_local_live_at_start, at flow.c:546.Please submit a full bug report,with preprocessed source if appropriate.Send email to arm-gnu@codesourcery.com for instructions." Aug 30 09:58:14 No wait, I have optimisations set, lemme remove them Aug 30 11:06:16 Hi everyone Aug 30 11:07:50 People, is there any way that if you unzip/unrar a file, it erases from the compressed file Aug 30 11:08:55 I have enough space on mmc for the rar, but not for the rar and all the unrared files (which should be the double) Aug 30 11:11:41 not according to http://linux.die.net/man/1/unrar Aug 30 11:12:48 move the compressed rar to a usb stick and unrar (or rar e) from that Aug 30 11:30:17 addoc, thank you Aug 30 12:04:01 http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q187/Cptnodegard/lalala.jpg Aug 30 12:04:03 ide?

Aug 30 12:05:19 looks like pata yes Aug 30 12:05:24 really dusty pata Aug 30 12:05:31 just vacuumed it Aug 30 12:05:37 :) Aug 30 12:05:48 Actually that's a molex in the foreground. :P Aug 30 12:05:58 i need a new DVD burner as that ones flaky Aug 30 12:06:00 a power supply molex indeed Aug 30 12:06:12 GAN800: molex is just a brand of connectors :) Aug 30 12:06:55 aquatix, excuse me for being lazy with the thumbboard.

Aug 30 12:07:11 GAN800: find yourself excused Aug 30 12:07:15 is it possible to reset the Video Center database of files it thinks its downloaded? it's playing the wrong files. Don't really want to lose the feeds though Aug 30 12:07:19 * aquatix would have said the same btw ;) Aug 30 12:07:31 CptLaptop: that or 80 pin Aug 30 12:08:57 http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q187/Cptnodegard/blah.jpg Aug 30 12:09:02 those pins i shou d count? Aug 30 12:09:18 look like 40 Aug 30 12:09:23 80 are smaller Aug 30 12:09:42 the ribbon cable Aug 30 12:10:09 http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/imageview.php?image=586 Aug 30 12:10:45 thx Aug 30 12:11:55 why does one say ide/atapi and the other one i fouind says ata-66? Aug 30 12:16:02 ata-66 is speed spec Aug 30 12:16:22 just buy whatever ide/pata drive Aug 30 12:16:37 Two links for those unfortunate enough to not be able to afford newer than N770: http://dibblah.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/N770-Battery/ http://dibblah.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/N770-SD/ Aug 30 12:17:08 ah thanks Aug 30 12:17:29 s/N770/770/g Aug 30 12:17:42 ... Replacing the battery with a 2400mAh cell and a full-sized cell. Aug 30 12:17:46 There's no such thing as an 'N770' Aug 30 12:17:58 Dibblah: happen to have similar link (battery) for n800? Aug 30 12:17:58 Bah. It's what everyone I know calls it :( Aug 30 12:18:16 CptLaptop: It's harder to do, as I mention at the bottom of the page. Aug 30 12:18:33 Everyone you know is wrong. Aug 30 12:18:57 the wrong name is better than the right name though Aug 30 12:19:02 (On the "800" ;) the metal backbone goes through the entire unit, adding significantly to it's structure) Aug 30 12:19:20 s/800/N800/g Aug 30 12:19:22 if you can't afford an n800 can you afford to take apart your n770 and attack it? Aug 30 12:19:31 'Better'? Aug 30 12:19:41 Well, since it only cost me £70, yes :) Aug 30 12:20:34 thats more than a used n800 would cost you Aug 30 12:20:42 at least not far from Aug 30 12:20:58 CptLaptop: I get the feeling you don't live in the UK. Aug 30 12:21:23 live in norway which is more expensive than the uk but thats what importing shit is for Aug 30 12:21:26 And that was ~1.5 years ago, when a company over here had a firesale of them. Aug 30 12:21:33 ah Aug 30 12:23:07 Dibblah: did you mean 5mm or .5mm in the battery text? Aug 30 12:23:14 5mm. Aug 30 12:23:40 It's actually _slightly_ less, but not much. Aug 30 12:23:46 this webshop over here is having a weekend offer for a dmtech starry7 internet radio for 100usd. half want one. anyone have any experience with such standalones? Aug 30 12:24:56 surely the whole thing is hardly 5mm high Aug 30 12:39:47 mavhc: I don't understand what you mean. Aug 30 12:39:58 5mm == .5cm. Aug 30 12:40:17 how tall is the battery? Aug 30 12:40:54 The new or the old? Aug 30 12:41:17 new Aug 30 12:44:42 mavhc, the battery in the n810 ? Aug 30 12:44:44 The BP-4L ? Aug 30 12:45:18 The old is just over 5mm thick. Aug 30 12:45:28 The new is just under 9mm thick. Aug 30 12:46:23 The BP-4L is 66mm x 43mm x 4mm Aug 30 12:46:34 Dunno which one you're talking about Aug 30 12:47:22 scrollback.

Aug 30 12:51:51 yeah Aug 30 12:52:03 that's what, more than double what you get from the BP-4L Aug 30 12:52:26 * lcuk wakesu p all bleary eyed Aug 30 12:52:36 1500mAh Aug 30 12:53:00 well, let's admit that after a year of usage, being optimistic, you get 1200mAh out of it Aug 30 12:53:09 moo, all Aug 30 12:53:21 and that you don't really get 3600mAh, just some 33-3400 Aug 30 12:53:33 still a pretty good deal for £40 Aug 30 12:53:43 does anyone know where i might find some free stock textures? Aug 30 12:53:50 textures ? Aug 30 12:53:55 Google?

Aug 30 12:55:02 im looking for royalty free ones tbh :) i wanna see how nicely an alpha blended menu will look :) Aug 30 12:55:22 lcuk, might take a bit longer than that, I started a complete architectural redesign Aug 30 12:55:35 thinking granite for the background Aug 30 12:55:40 ooooh crash - its always the way Aug 30 12:55:55 last time I commited, git went "HOLY MOTHER OF GOD" Aug 30 12:56:16 You could always take a camera outside if it comes down to it. Aug 30 12:56:44 oh one other thing, the "13:49:50 Unknown event 33, let me know what happened at " error when you press the home key - should i bring up a menu which says "do you wanna return to hildon?" Aug 30 12:56:49 flickr might work if you filter by license. Aug 30 12:56:58 lcuk, "Exit?" Aug 30 12:57:03 GAN800, thats a good idea, but i dont have any granite rock formations in manchester Aug 30 12:57:04 But there's lots of free stuff on google. Aug 30 12:57:41 lcuk, http://www.gettyimages.com/Creative/RoyaltyFree.aspx Aug 30 12:58:03 hi, does anybody know if there exists a tango style device icon depicting a nokia n810 somewhere?

They say "no limit", but what's the fair use policy ? Aug 30 13:04:00 Jaiku is too ridiculous. Aug 30 13:04:14 irc for fail. Aug 30 13:04:16 there is a limit, if you go over daily cap of (*feck knows*) then you get slowed down Aug 30 13:04:20 lcuk, I can't watch megavideo clips anymore, says "connection problem", and when i go through encrypted proxy in france, it works without any problem Aug 30 13:04:24 it dependes on package and area though i believe Aug 30 13:04:39 i gave up on all that worry though a while ago and just use it as i need Aug 30 13:04:48 GAN800: define rediculous... Aug 30 13:05:06 t_s_o, a spell used in Harry Potter Aug 30 13:05:09 crashanddie, that could be due to other problems Aug 30 13:05:22 lcuk, yeah, probably, but well, works now Aug 30 13:05:28 I can't, that's not a word. :P Aug 30 13:06:07 But, seriously, it's just a stupid waste of time.

Are the iPhone and N810 screen protectors interchangeable?

Aug 30 17:03:21 jott: well i don't mind the questions, just the way they're presented Aug 30 17:52:11 name: "#maemo log search", Aug 30 17:52:12 takes: {"Site": noun_arb_text}, Aug 30 17:52:12 preview: function( pblock, theSearch ) { Aug 30 17:52:12 pblock.innerHTML = "enter command as '#maemo'"; Aug 30 17:52:12 }, Aug 30 17:52:12 execute: function( theSearch ) { Aug 30 17:52:14 var msg = "..Search Complete"; Aug 30 17:52:16 var url = "http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog/search?q=" + theSearch.text; Aug 30 17:52:18 Utils.openUrlInBrowser( url ); Aug 30 17:52:20 displayMessage( msg ); Aug 30 17:52:22 } Aug 30 17:52:24 }) Aug 30 17:52:26 :D Aug 30 17:52:58 this "openUrl" stuff is rather unimpressive. Aug 30 17:53:07 yeah yeah Aug 30 17:53:08 the only nice thing about it are inline results Aug 30 17:53:09 but useful Aug 30 17:53:12 na Aug 30 17:53:20 you can have it open in that pane also Aug 30 17:53:32 but the presentation sucks then.. Aug 30 17:53:34 one guy did an xkcd one that shows the coming in the pane Aug 30 17:54:14 whatever party pooper Aug 30 17:54:31 i mean this openurl thingy is like normal search shortcuts that existed for ages :/ Aug 30 17:54:42 but the inline results are quite nice. Aug 30 17:55:02 moo Aug 30 17:55:09 i guess i like how fast it is to get things Aug 30 17:55:29 plus the customizing Aug 30 17:55:40 i don't think this would be too useful on my n800 though Aug 30 18:10:42 hi Aug 30 18:46:53 hm. what package has xhost on maemo? Aug 30 19:29:36 Hi Aug 30 19:31:27 hi Binky Aug 30 19:32:41 addoc, , i have the first release of os2006, it won't manage 2GB cards, but with a USB host will i be able to mount a pendrive of 2, 4 or 8 GBs? Aug 30 19:32:44 Tia Aug 30 19:33:48 dunno, frankly :-) Aug 30 19:34:46 you can try Aug 30 19:35:27 Ok, thank you Aug 30 19:52:02 tablet debian chroot 101: remember to have /tmp from maemo Aug 30 20:50:39 hmm.. say, how fscked up is the gps in nokias 810??? Aug 30 20:51:03 i was walking about 2 km through my town (small town, 250k Citizens, no skyscrapers, rather wide streets) Aug 30 20:51:08 ..and i got no fix! Aug 30 20:51:35 thats beyond all usability... Aug 30 20:52:25 The gps is pretty **** tbh, best you can do is to install a-gps Aug 30 20:52:41 i had (according to maemo-mapper) 6 satellites - no fix?! Aug 30 20:53:40 use a-gps, make sure the clock is set correctly, still not that great Aug 30 20:53:48 i mean, i never really had good experiences with GPS (i think the technology is FUBAR..) but my cheapo bluetooth gps gets a (very inprecise) fix in about 60 seconds Aug 30 20:54:17 well, how _do_ i use agps?? Aug 30 20:54:35 i'm running chinook.. is it possible with that? Aug 30 20:54:56 and i have internet most of the time, so what about dgps? Aug 30 20:59:00 hmpf. i'm gonna develop my own fscking gps in this town. pfft. Aug 30 21:00:50 no Aug 30 21:00:58 diablo only Aug 30 21:01:01 riot: could always make better drivers for the gps and make a fortun Aug 30 21:01:01 e Aug 30 21:01:02 :P Aug 30 21:02:16 no, i mean, why is gps so crappy? Doesn't work with cheap devices, no indoors, bad precision... and i've seen stupid (VERY) wlan-triangulation-systems with so fscking high precision and EASE... Aug 30 21:02:17 http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/27350111.html Aug 30 21:02:24 That's just. Wow. Aug 30 21:04:20 riot: i agree nokia kinda chose wrong solution for the gps.. that's one of the things holding me back from getting a n810 Aug 30 21:04:32 i would say "wow" over a working positioning system Aug 30 21:04:46 Stskeeps: i didn't really buy it because of the gps.. Aug 30 21:04:51 fact is: GPS is CRAP Aug 30 21:05:09 i agree, but outside it's all we have until gaileo comes along :P Aug 30 21:05:22 .. excepting cell-id and tower triangulation and silly wifi proximity Aug 30 21:05:32 galileo is meant to deliver navigation indoors??! i disbelieve. Aug 30 21:05:48 meh, nokia implemenation on gps on the n810 is shit Aug 30 21:06:02 i work with a research group that does galileo stuff and they don't believe indoor either Aug 30 21:06:05 :P Aug 30 21:06:34 Stskeeps: satellites are too far away, there is no way of ever receiving e.g. dvb-s indoors either Aug 30 21:06:48 yeah, i know Aug 30 21:06:52 so, what do you do? At least for large urban areas?? build a fscking ground-station based network! Aug 30 21:07:02 its easy! It costs few bucks! We HAD IT! Aug 30 21:07:12 wait what? Aug 30 21:07:24 stupid radio-towers sprung up all over the country everywhere since the invention of FM-Radio Aug 30 21:07:33 * Stskeeps passes riot the coffee pot to calm down a bit over the GPS thing Aug 30 21:07:54 Stskeeps: i'm seriously pissed off, but thanks anyway :) Aug 30 21:08:03 * qwerty12_N800 recommends anger management :p Aug 30 21:08:13 bowling is good for anger management really Aug 30 21:08:18 thing is, i realize that i have 4 gps devices in my appartment... of which NONE is usable. Aug 30 21:08:34 i'm not angered, i'm just pissed off by "promises"! Aug 30 21:08:54 btw. quake3 is perfect to calm down from about anything. Aug 30 21:09:11 riot: i've more than once considered giving up technology and moving to the romanian mountains with no infrastructure to speak of Aug 30 21:09:14 :P Aug 30 21:09:26 * riot will just smoke a cig, get a shower and then go to a nice party. Oh, and i'll fscking remember this biz-idea. Aug 30 21:09:34 mountains crash less often, but when you do you might die Aug 30 21:09:39 Stskeeps is going Amish in Europe. Aug 30 21:10:40 i've only used ONE reliable gps-solution ever. Cost: about 5kEUR, Antenna: Size of a quarter-pounder... location: Large sailship Aug 30 21:11:06 anyone of you read "Spook Country" from William Gibson? Aug 30 21:11:36 One of the main reasons, i'm annoyed about gps. The navigation industry blows BILLIONS of bucks into space with no real result! Aug 30 21:12:14 The thing about the large sailship is that the GPS got powered on while sitting in harbour for hours :P Aug 30 21:12:33 at least concerning non-military or non-seafaring results Aug 30 21:12:34 qwerty12_N800: worst part is my gf actually owns a house in polish mountains.. but that has infrastructure so that's cheating Aug 30 21:12:35 My N810 gets a fix in a few minutes when not moving and when satellites in view Aug 30 21:12:41 ShadowJK: lol :) Aug 30 21:13:07 ShadowJK: no, i was sitting in a small park for 5 minutes... it got 3 sats, yet no fix Aug 30 21:13:11 My sirfstar dongle kicks its arse, it's cold starting most of the time and has a more sensitive antenna :) Aug 30 21:13:22 i moved along some streets, it got even 6 sats - yet no fix. Aug 30 21:13:35 works ok for me Aug 30 21:14:17 make sure to use agps and dont hold your hand where the gps antenna is Aug 30 21:14:58 It would be nice if jffs2 supported ext2 attributes, then you could set "i" attribute on cached satellite positions Aug 30 21:15:00 i had a grip on a very nice small bluetooth gps (looked like an analog camera-film with a tiny lcd) which had a fix (in a large tent...) after about 1 minute.. but still, i don't want to carry yet another device.. Aug 30 21:15:15 Kegetys: where tf is the antenna?? Aug 30 21:15:41 top left afaik, not sure which part though Aug 30 21:15:52 riot: and strongly consider upgrading to diablo and use agps. Aug 30 21:16:02 http://www.preisvergleich.ch/pimages/Holux-M-241-Wireless-GPS-Receiver_1197__34717_40.jpg << it was this one. Aug 30 21:16:10 holux seems to be rather good Aug 30 21:16:41 jott: after upgrading, all my apps etc are gone, right? Aug 30 21:17:00 riot: make a backup. Aug 30 21:17:05 will i be able to use chinook repositories with diablo? Aug 30 21:17:10 or consider a fresh start :) Aug 30 21:18:02 yes, but diablo extras(-devel) have almost everything important in it nowadays. Aug 30 21:18:23 jott: is plasma in there yet? :P Aug 30 21:18:34 ok.. hmm. i'm gonna upgrade next week, then.. Aug 30 21:18:52 TZander: no, still need to put some effort in it. maybe i push some more packages tomorrow. Aug 30 21:19:22 but it plasma is in no chinook repository either, so :) Aug 30 21:19:25 oh another thing: is there a better unlock-keypad available? the stuff in chinook is TOO SMALL Aug 30 21:20:15 after finally having a working cmake it should be fairly easy now. :) Aug 30 21:21:12 jott: I saw various screenshots already. Aug 30 21:21:52 jott: my main problem is size. Your / will be full if you have hilon as well as plasma on there. Aug 30 21:29:10 zumbi: yep, it's running but not in extras :) Aug 30 21:29:20 TZander: ^^ Aug 30 21:29:56 and using it from the internal 256mb flash is not very sane :P Aug 30 21:30:56 i use the 2gb for my / anyway, so no big space concerns .. Aug 30 21:31:51 jott: I just flashed my n810 with a devel image and / then is your internal thing. Aug 30 21:32:09 yep, you need to clone it to the internal sd... Aug 30 21:32:14 jott: So I'll probably have to compile to use /media/[something] Aug 30 21:32:39 it's pretty straight forward to use the 2gb card as root. Aug 30 21:32:49 hmm, didn't consider that option yet. Aug 30 21:33:27 makes sense if you don't want to fight with every single wasted byte :) Aug 30 21:34:19 it does. Aug 30 21:35:54 we need a good wiki with these tutorials. I've seen more useful ones in planetkde.org in the last week then I ever found on any maemo.org site :P Aug 30 21:36:31 there is wiki.maemo.org :) Aug 30 21:36:55 which is practically empty Aug 30 21:36:59 http://wiki.maemo.org/Booting_from_a_flash_card hm though i must admit not the best :) Aug 30 21:37:39 but should do the job i guess Aug 30 21:38:26 jott: ok, is it me or is there just no table of contents or other way to find these developer pages on the wiki? Aug 30 21:38:44 going to the main page just gives you links to developer pages that are not on the wiki. Aug 30 21:38:45 the wiki is quite new (or better the mediawiki) Aug 30 21:38:58 it needs love, no question. Aug 30 21:39:47 but hey, it's a wiki everybody can (try to) improve it ;) Aug 30 21:39:51 * TZander notest the continued meme of 'menu on the right'. Aug 30 21:40:19 I've noticed that a lot of nokia hardware is also easier to operate for left handed people. Makes me wonder about the finns. Aug 30 21:41:23 Hmm, I've heard lots of lefties saying the opposite about the N8x Aug 30 21:41:24 didn't you know nokias chief consultant is ned flenders? :) Aug 30 21:41:24 0 Aug 30 21:42:20 qwerty12_N800: apart from the pen being 'docked' on the right, its easier to use left handed for me. Aug 30 21:42:38 At minimum I don't put my tumb on the eye that detects sunlight Aug 30 21:43:05 For me, I'm always using both hands Aug 30 21:45:41 maemos wiki doesn't give much results when searching for "qt"... Aug 30 21:46:04 hmm. indeed. Aug 30 21:48:35 porting qt apps to maemo should be easy they say.. but that only counts for the helloworld application :D Aug 30 21:49:41 well generally (when there are no big dependency) it should be just a recompile :) Aug 30 21:50:09 but you should consider the screen size :) Aug 30 21:51:20 compiling works.. Aug 30 21:51:39 hey i can even use the qt4 designer on the device which works fairly well .. Aug 30 21:52:10 really? :) Aug 30 21:52:44 yes. Aug 30 21:52:54 I suppose my qt program isn't written that well :( Aug 30 21:53:30 does QtScripting also works on maemo qt? Aug 30 21:53:41 why not? Aug 30 21:55:03 well it should.. if the device can find the QtScript library Aug 30 21:55:17 i wish there was a way to create widgets in the designer without drag and drop :/ Aug 30 21:55:46 héhé not easy on tablet I guess :) Aug 30 21:56:26 Woefix: everything should work (well some database drivers and opengl support are missing) - otherwise it's a bug. Aug 30 21:57:36 well, you need to have the "Docked Window" layout as you can't drag the stuff across multiple windows. and if you have, there is not much real screen space left ... Aug 30 21:58:45 well maybe i think of some patch to make it usable, would be nice to layout widgets on the device. Aug 30 22:00:47 Have I missed something? My internet is playing some tricks on me Aug 30 22:01:39 not sure where you disconnected :) Aug 30 22:02:42 last thing you said was: i wish there was a way to create widgets in the designer without drag and drop :/ Aug 30 22:03:31 (regarding qt4 maemo in general...) Woefix: everything should work (well some database drivers and opengl support are missing) - otherwise it's a bug. Aug 30 22:04:34 and i thought about patching designer to make it usable in fullscreen mode to layout widgets on the device :) Aug 30 22:05:31 when trying to run my app it says: Error while loading shared libraries: libqtscript.so.4.. Aug 30 22:06:01 hmm Aug 30 22:06:39 should be "libQtScript" Aug 30 22:07:18 yes, yes, I typed to fast.. Aug 30 22:07:27 ok, install libqt4-script Aug 30 22:09:51 done Aug 30 22:09:59 now libQtNetwork Aug 30 22:11:28 aha :) Aug 30 22:12:07 that's something already Aug 30 22:12:11 thanks Aug 30 22:14:22 Woefix_: does your app run now? Aug 30 22:15:00 yes it does :) Aug 30 22:15:38 But there's still a lot that needs to be fixed since I commented out half the program to make it work for Qt first (instead of Qtopia) :D Aug 30 22:15:45 http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff3/freakyjohn101/grim_reaper.jpg Aug 30 22:15:50 need to fix menu/layout,...

Aug 31 00:27:06 Hello. Aug 31 00:28:16 I'm playing around with Python on my 770, and while my applications run, they don't show up in the running applications list and so I cannot switch to them. Aug 31 00:28:28 Any ideas what could cause this? Aug 31 00:32:57 Hm... what's the name of the clock plugin from the screenshots here? http://adv-backlight.garage.maemo.org/ Aug 31 00:33:49 Tey mouse over? :) Aug 31 00:33:58 It's in the tooltip. ;) Aug 31 00:34:47 gaaa :D Aug 31 00:35:50 I believe yacoob was referring to the one in the screenshots underneath. Is that the same app? Aug 31 00:39:37 Large Statusbar Clock Aug 31 00:39:46 only available for OS2008 Aug 31 00:48:04 GeneralAntilles, is it possible for me to up the virtual memory on my machine, or do i have to move to mmapped files (that you know of) Aug 31 00:50:49 Which machine? Aug 31 00:51:10 my 810 Aug 31 00:51:40 Higher than 128MB is pointless. Aug 31 00:52:01 You'll end up slowing the system to a crawl at that point.
