Feb 26 07:42:31 yeah Feb 26 07:42:42 rebooted the tablet Feb 26 07:43:27 the xkb line now lists the nokia keyboard, but I need to restart Feb 26 07:43:30 brb Feb 26 07:54:16 hello all Feb 26 07:55:06 when I run gtk application scratchbox using Xepher it is showing full screen where as when run as as standalone it showing properly Feb 26 07:56:08 what SDK release?

Feb 26 08:03:09 if I have scim installed can that affect it? Feb 26 08:03:30 it's part of gnome install Feb 26 08:04:02 not sure Feb 26 08:04:07 maybe you have to adjust keyboard settings Feb 26 08:05:12 lshal | grep xkb.model Feb 26 08:06:04 GeneralAntilles: thoughtfix is now on "Nokia Sparrow" hype. :P Feb 26 08:06:17 input.xkb.model = 'pc105' (string) Feb 26 08:06:36 muh... Feb 26 08:06:42 hm Feb 26 08:07:02 i don't have a N810 anymore in the office sorry Feb 26 08:07:33 thanks for trying. we'll figure it out Feb 26 08:08:33 where is xkb.model stored? Feb 26 08:08:42 manual file edit? Feb 26 08:09:00 could you see if /usr/share/hal/policy/10osvendor (or something)/10-x11-keymap.fdi exists? Feb 26 08:09:03 if it does, get rid of it Feb 26 08:09:10 sure Feb 26 08:09:13 uh why Feb 26 08:09:16 oh Feb 26 08:10:25 Toba: because it has a rather facist way of going around things. Since it uses debian-setup-keyboard (or something) as a callout, and callouts are called after FDI evaluation, it screws up any kind of stuff FDI has detected regarding input.xkb.* Feb 26 08:11:18 you clearly know more about this topic than I Feb 26 08:11:20 and replaces it with console-setup information Feb 26 08:11:37 yeah, i spent a day buried in that :P Feb 26 08:11:54 I'm the same way about something, I'm sure. Feb 26 08:12:00 done... Feb 26 08:12:01 oh, right. mysql and its stupid policies re: tempfiles. Feb 26 08:12:07 but that's a story for another day Feb 26 08:12:44 neatojones: it was there? :P Feb 26 08:12:57 it existed in /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor Feb 26 08:13:02 wtf :P Feb 26 08:13:06 dpkg -L hal Feb 26 08:14:46 is it in there? Feb 26 08:15:00 yep Feb 26 08:16:02 and it was called 10-x11-keymap.fdi? :P Feb 26 08:17:22 yeah that is there Feb 26 08:17:32 rechecking installed version now Feb 26 08:17:50 k, cos i don't have that in my deb :P Feb 26 08:17:52 I just deleted the whole directory Feb 26 08:20:41 You're definately right. I told it to install one and verified, but it seems to have installed the other... Feb 26 08:20:47 I don't get it Feb 26 08:20:52 will try again Feb 26 08:25:17 morning all Feb 26 08:25:34 morning Feb 26 08:38:02 I realize it makes no sense, but synaptic wouldn't let me install that version. had to do it old school...without a working keyboard Feb 26 08:39:09 is the fremantle device a laptop? http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/02/25/AR2009022503409.html Feb 26 08:40:02 jyro: i'd say tablets are a mid-way between laptops and netbooks these days.. Feb 26 08:40:09 er, embedded systems and netbooks Feb 26 08:41:04 may be nokia is trying to change defn of laptop making it comparable to cellphone in size Feb 26 08:42:00 though, i wouldn't be that happy about fremantle on a laptop, but that's just me.. Feb 26 08:45:05 jyro, in the tv show, O-P said (about laptops) "Never say never." and them something that they're constantly thinking of those (and probably everything else too) Feb 26 08:46:20 hmm, press turns even a speculation into a news sometimes... Feb 26 08:50:31 jyro, my own translation: Interviewer: "Will nokia make a mini laptop someday?" O-P: "Never say never. Of course we're looking at this business opportunity, even quite actively." Feb 26 08:51:01 thanks inz Feb 26 08:51:11 For the finnish speaking: "Tekeekö Nokia joskus oman kannettavan, minikannettavan?" - "Ei koskaan pidä sanoa ei koskaan. Kyllä me totta kai katsomme tätäkin bisnesmahdollisuutta hyvinkin aktiivisesti." Feb 26 08:56:38 what was the solution for "checking whether the C++ compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C++ compiled programs." when configuring for armel? Feb 26 08:58:57 Stskeeps: still no Fn key. the right debs are installed now. and those commands seem to list the right keyboard Feb 26 08:59:10 Found the solution once, but forgot what it was Feb 26 09:03:25 found it. Fixes the problem until next reboot by writing: sudo sh -c 'echo 4096 > /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr' Feb 26 09:03:30 outside scratchbox Feb 26 09:04:30 Ahh, that Feb 26 09:04:50 I guess I was the first to run into that one, at least the first one to blog about it Feb 26 09:05:06 yes, I remember finding the solution from your blog Feb 26 09:05:18 was there a way to permanently fix it Feb 26 09:06:18 echo "vm.mmap_min_addr=4096" >> /etc/sysctl.d/20-scratchbox.conf Feb 26 09:06:22 Or something similar Feb 26 09:06:33 Or apt-get upgrade ;) Feb 26 09:07:15 Ahh, that won't do, it's wine that has fixed it for me Feb 26 09:07:23 And I have wine from some weird place. Feb 26 09:07:40 ok, thanks for advice Feb 26 09:14:28 neatojones, not sure sorry, i have no idea about ubuntu ver Feb 26 09:15:12 Sts: Planet says there is a new version of Tracker, one to be used in Fremantle Feb 26 09:15:42 Sts: You may want to put it into MeR to see how much it will drain the battery =) Feb 26 09:25:38 Stskeeps...looks like I have a version of evdev from b-man repos..could that be the culprit? Feb 26 09:26:08 I'm trying to dload the mer version, but the repo appears to be down Feb 26 09:27:59 yeah, switch getting switched Feb 26 09:28:09 and yes Feb 26 09:28:22 evdev would make a difference Feb 26 09:29:26 thanks Feb 26 09:34:30 that must be it then. Feb 26 09:35:18 ...now if I could just figure out why the onscreen keyboard isn't working. Feb 26 09:39:59 him? Feb 26 09:40:10 thats a can of worms Feb 26 09:41:57 huh? Feb 26 09:43:55 which on-screen kbd? Feb 26 09:44:42 StsN800: the enlightenment one. It's supposedly really nice, but I can't get it to show up on screen. Feb 26 09:45:48 I need to drop in on their boards sometime when I get a chance Feb 26 09:47:18 i've really reserached it and can't find a reason why. No errors, no onscreen keyboard, nothing. Feb 26 09:48:35 I'm hoping someone else will eventually install enlightenment that actually has a clue and figures it out. :) Feb 26 09:49:46 good morning Feb 26 09:49:50 would anyone know where the default pkgdatadir is defined in autotools? I'd like to write the DBUS service file .in file such as Exec=@pkgdatadir@/@filename_my_prog@, but the result after autoconf is Exec=@pkgdatadir@/my_prog Feb 26 09:50:40 now, I could write AC_SUBST(pkgdatadir) in configure.ac, but at that point pkgdatadir doesnt seem to have a value yet Feb 26 09:57:10 hi can i use ConIcConnectionStatus to check bluetooth connection? Feb 26 10:06:19 neatojones: rep up again Feb 26 10:06:30 thanks Feb 26 10:11:11 hi Feb 26 10:12:27 Stskeeps:one issue in application an html page from net but it is not able to load images Feb 26 10:13:06 Stskeeps: any way Feb 26 10:14:06 application an html page from net but it is not able to load images Feb 26 10:14:10 sans: sorry, no idea Feb 26 10:14:34 in my application an html page from net but it is not able to load images Feb 26 10:17:32 timeIE61i:any idea for this issue n my application an html page from net but it is not able to load images Feb 26 10:18:04 Stskeeps : thanks Feb 26 10:20:39 * lcuk peeks in Feb 26 10:22:26 i am having one problem my application load an html page from net but it is not able to load images of that page it only shows text.any idea :) Feb 26 10:27:44 StsN800: got it!!! it was indeed the evdev package from bman's ubuntu repo that caused the Fn key not towork Feb 26 10:27:46 sans: turn image loading on Feb 26 10:27:58 the Mer package got it going Feb 26 10:29:00 neatojones: thought so Feb 26 10:30:38 Thanks again for your help!

Feb 26 10:39:33 i need to set up cpu transparency Feb 26 10:40:39 zs1, well sbox_user_id is likely your user id (try command id); and gid is that of the sbox (grep sbox /etc/group) Feb 26 10:41:06 ok thanks Feb 26 10:43:14 Stskeeps: in my maemo emulator in the left side the web icon doesn't appears could u say what could be the problem Feb 26 10:44:41 In my maemo emulator in the left side the web icon doesn't appears any help?:) Feb 26 10:45:58 * andre__ wonders if it's only timeless using "bread crumb" as a synonym for "tab" Feb 26 10:47:31 Stskeeps: any idea Feb 26 10:47:40 :) Feb 26 10:48:21 Stskeeps: any suggestions Feb 26 10:52:05 Anyone who bought the $400 unlocked developer G1 is in for a nasty surprise: Google, citing piracy concerns, won't allow those handsets to access paid Marketplace apps. Feb 26 10:52:14 * RST38h cackles evilly Feb 26 10:53:15 Most Android phones download paid content to a private, hidden apps folder, inaccessible to the user. Thing is, as is stands, this normally inaccessible folder is accessible on the dev phones. Not only does this let people flat out copy and redistribute appsit enables a sort of app laundering scam, in which someone buys an app, copies it to another location, and gets a refund for the app Feb 26 10:53:50 * RST38h giggles uncontrollably Feb 26 10:54:02 hehe Feb 26 10:54:26 Security by obscurity, always a good scheme..

Feb 26 11:05:22 sans: disregard it, use real device. Feb 26 11:07:50 Rst38h: thanks :) Feb 26 11:09:47 Does anybody else have problems with Vagalume not playing tracks anymore?

Feb 26 11:36:02 getting there slowly Feb 26 11:36:06 got wifi working yesterday Feb 26 11:36:13 48mhz mmc kernel helps a lot :P Feb 26 11:36:27 but a proper Xomap would help wonders, too :P Feb 26 11:36:51 hehe Feb 26 11:37:07 i got a 770 collecting dust.. thats why intrested Feb 26 11:37:47 problems right now: takes too bloody long time booting, and the X driver lacks manual updates Feb 26 11:38:43 <_berto_> X-Fade: I'll try to release a fixed version of vagalume today Feb 26 11:38:52 <_berto_> apparently they changed something in the streaming service Feb 26 11:39:13 <_berto_> and some 3rd-party clients are broken (that I know: rhythmbox, vagalume, canola and banshee) Feb 26 11:43:39 does anyone else think Vagalume is kind of unfortunately named? :) Feb 26 11:43:59 _berto_: Ah, so at least it isn't me ;) Feb 26 11:44:40 <_berto_> wjt: it's very difficult to choose a word that sounds ok in all languanges :) Feb 26 11:45:03 <_berto_> wjt: for what it's worth, vagalume is usually chosen as one of the most beautiful words in my language Feb 26 11:46:07 _berto_: fair enough :) Feb 26 11:46:08 <_berto_> that's not the only case anyway: mamona doesn't sound exactly good to spanish speakers :) Feb 26 11:47:15 oh, heh :) Feb 26 11:48:22 I guess this is why large software companies employ people to do multinational market research Feb 26 11:49:15 and smart people just make abbreviations without vowels Feb 26 11:49:46 ;) Feb 26 11:49:56 <_berto_> yes, I know of some cars that have different names in their spanish version Feb 26 11:50:48 <_berto_> (e.g mitsubishi pajero) Feb 26 11:50:50 hm, that's interesting :) and what cars? Feb 26 11:51:20 <_berto_> (pajero in spanish means more or less "wanker") Feb 26 11:51:30 beautiful Feb 26 11:51:38 Chevy Nova too Feb 26 11:52:25 they sold nova in mexico Feb 26 11:52:49 and had/have a gasoline brand named somewhat similar too Feb 26 11:52:53 I bet many people would buy Mitsubishi in Finland, if it would be called "Mitsubishi Runkkari" (runkkari == wanker) Feb 26 11:53:42 That would be cool Feb 26 11:54:02 It should consume gasoline/petrol faster than a airliner Feb 26 11:54:05 +n Feb 26 11:54:17 _berto_ I noticed Last.fm "connection errors" too with Vagalume, but their own client suffers it too. Feb 26 11:54:27 glass: afaik, no-va means something like no-go in spanish but I may be wrong Feb 26 11:54:32 RST38h: yes it does Feb 26 11:54:40 <_berto_> MikaT: hmm, I see nothing strange with their official client Feb 26 11:54:45 RST38h: but still they sold it, it's an urban myth that they changed name Feb 26 11:54:52 <_berto_> MikaT: in fact i'm using vagalume from SVN trunk and it works fine Feb 26 11:55:13 RST38h: it's pronounced quite differently apparently Feb 26 11:55:14 _berto_: Can I test that package ;) Feb 26 11:55:20 _berto_: Ok, letme try that too... Feb 26 11:55:33 <_berto_> yes, no-va means "doesn't go" in spanish but "nova" is a fairly common latin word here Feb 26 11:55:45 morning timelE61i Feb 26 11:56:12 hI Feb 26 11:56:43 <_berto_> most people wouldn't notice the nova <=> no va thing Feb 26 11:56:59 <_berto_> however, pajero is too obvious Feb 26 11:57:04 glass: well, this stuff even occurs in English, with English speaking carmakers Feb 26 11:57:23 glass: Pontiac Fiero had a very ..mmm... proper name for example Feb 26 11:58:36 <_berto_> they also used different names for sega genesis/megadrive, but I don't think it had anything to do with bad-sounding words Feb 26 11:59:34 "it enables a sort of app laundering scam, in which someone buys an app, copies it to another location, and gets a refund for the app" <-- Where can you get refunds for used software, especially software bought on a phone Feb 26 12:00:12 tank-man: Android? Feb 26 12:00:30 yea , refering to what RST38h said above Feb 26 12:00:47 1hr ago :P Feb 26 12:00:53 tank-man: i utterly think Android is a joke after ADP1 suddenly can't use app store. Feb 26 12:02:50 anyone able to send files to an n810 over bluetooth? or browse obex with obexftp from the n810? Feb 26 12:03:00 monkeyiq: i send n810 files regulary Feb 26 12:03:05 er, n800 Feb 26 12:03:20 Stskeeps; send too the n800? Feb 26 12:03:26 yeah Feb 26 12:03:32 Stskeeps; I can send from it but not too :/ Feb 26 12:04:06 ah ok, using a command like obexftp -b $FOO_BT --put dfdf.txt on the sending machine? Feb 26 12:04:16 actually it was from a cellphone Feb 26 12:04:17 RST38h: i kinda fancy the pontiac fiero.. not with stock engine but anyways. of the pontiacs anyways... Feb 26 12:04:19 maybe that bluetooth setting that makes your device discoverable is off Feb 26 12:04:24 Nokia has plans to put Symbian onto laptop computers, with the vendor predicting converged devices were likely to appear in as little as five years from now. Feb 26 12:04:47 Sounds like a distorted echo of the Sparrow-based hw news Feb 26 12:04:53 heh Feb 26 12:04:53 yeah Feb 26 12:04:54 probably Feb 26 12:05:00 idiot analysing Feb 26 12:05:00 or the "Nokia Sparrow" Feb 26 12:05:06 which certainly has featers.. Feb 26 12:05:07 +h Feb 26 12:05:17 well, let us see what the guysays Feb 26 12:06:02 Stskeeps; ah ok. excellent, I just sent one from the e71 -> n810, so it seems to work, just not from the desktop Feb 26 12:08:35 sounds like a nokia conspiracy Feb 26 12:08:55 http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/02/26/nokia_laptops/ <--- pure speculation based on a single quote from the CEO Feb 26 12:09:46 better than mac fans that make up rumors based on nothing :) Feb 26 12:12:46 _berto_: confirmed, Vagalume from svn seems to work at least now. Feb 26 12:12:51 * RST38h considers spreading some false mac rumors just to get poor suckers into a frenzy Feb 26 12:12:59 "We are looking very actively also at this opportunity," Kallasvuo said, when asked whether Nokia plans to make laptops. Feb 26 12:13:08 that doesnt sound like pure speculation Feb 26 12:13:12 <_berto_> MikaT: great Feb 26 12:13:21 tank-man: it does sound like speculation Feb 26 12:13:23 <_berto_> MikaT: but I wonder why the official app fails for you Feb 26 12:13:37 tank-man: especially if you'd count a n810 in a clamshell as a laptop Feb 26 12:14:09 at what point would it become a "netbook"? Feb 26 12:14:20 i'd say that is a netbook Feb 26 12:14:26 when it reach 7" diameter :) Feb 26 12:14:42 or would it be an unetbook? Feb 26 12:14:49 _berto_: I don't know either. Just tried it this morning, and it gave similar errors than Vagalume. Feb 26 12:14:52 some ultra- Feb 26 12:16:32 <_berto_> MikaT: I'm using 1.5.1.something and I've never seen anything strange Feb 26 12:16:37 RST38h: try "Nokia takes over Apple phone division, replacing iPhone OS with Symbian" :P Feb 26 12:17:08 Sts: it has to be credible enough to work Feb 26 12:17:39 RST38h: Android on iPhone? Feb 26 12:17:40 :P Feb 26 12:17:54 btw, what about iphone linux? Feb 26 12:18:06 _berto_: Yep, mine is 1:1.5.1.31879.dfsg-1ubuntu too, but just tried it this morning. Feb 26 12:18:08 oli: haven't seen much progress i think Feb 26 12:18:15 Sts: Apple licensing iPhone OS to HTC will make a good rumor Feb 26 12:18:36 RST38h: true Feb 26 12:19:21 <_berto_> MikaT: anyway, I'll try to release a fixed version when I have some minutes Feb 26 12:19:21 <_berto_> thx Feb 26 12:20:10 _berto_: Still happening (in "official" client): "There was a problem contacting the radio streamer. Please try again later." and "Http error: server closed connection unexpectedly". Feb 26 12:20:20 <_berto_> hum Feb 26 12:20:24 <_berto_> that's weird Feb 26 12:20:26 <_berto_> :) Feb 26 12:20:35 _berto_: But Vagalume works, so everything is ok :) Feb 26 12:21:47 _berto_: Btw, Last.fm site gets confused easily by changing clients or scrobblers at fast pace. Feb 26 12:22:37 _berto_: My profile now says "Listening now using Last.fm Scrobbler", but I'm definitely using Vagalume :) The song is correct. Feb 26 12:22:46 <_berto_> MikaT: if you have them working at the same time, yes. if now, they should work fine Feb 26 12:22:51 <_berto_> MikaT: ah, that might be true Feb 26 12:23:30 _berto_: No, I didn't use them at the same time. I closed another and started another. Feb 26 12:24:30 _berto_: ...and now after a few refreshing, it's correct again. Feb 26 12:24:59 <_berto_> :) Feb 26 12:25:01 <_berto_> good Feb 26 12:27:42 <_berto_> lunch tiem! Feb 26 12:27:45 <_berto_> lunch time! Feb 26 12:34:00 hi all, yesterday i turned my nokia off and it was fine, today when i wanted to boot to my flash it just reboots on the flashscreen. is there a way to troubleshoot the boot problem? Feb 26 12:35:28 happen to have bootmenu with usb network recovery? Feb 26 12:50:20 Stskeeps, yes Feb 26 12:50:41 guysoft42: go check if your / ran out of space, mount it in the usb network recovery telnet Feb 26 12:50:45 Stskeeps, i also have an os working not in the flash Feb 26 12:50:59 Stskeeps, nope, i have 600MB free Feb 26 12:51:13 Stskeeps, saw that was common in google Feb 26 12:51:30 uh Feb 26 12:51:41 600M in the internal flash? :P Feb 26 12:53:24 Stskeeps, yes.. its a nokia N810, i mean the extra one Feb 26 12:53:36 guysoft42: when i say internal flash i mean internal flash, not internal mmc Feb 26 12:54:46 Stskeeps, the internal flash is also fine, i am in it now, i thought i might try reinstall the bootmenu , its mentioned in penguinbait Feb 26 12:56:19 Stskeeps, is there a way to stop the bootsplash so i see where it dies? Feb 26 12:56:30 in maemo? nop Feb 26 12:57:01 Can't you drop into a shell from grub? Feb 26 12:57:07 jeremiah_: no grub on tablets :P Feb 26 12:57:16 Ah. Feb 26 12:57:21 (i wish there were though.) Feb 26 12:57:56 Is the boot process then a Nokia thing? In the sense that Nokia has written software for it? Feb 26 12:58:00 yeah Feb 26 12:58:12 I thought that might be the case. Feb 26 12:58:15 NOLO -> x-loader -> kernel (rootfs=initfs) -> rootfs Feb 26 12:58:41 Is that entire chain proprietary? Feb 26 12:58:48 nah Feb 26 12:58:52 we can replace the last 2 Feb 26 12:58:59 Okay, cool. Feb 26 12:59:29 (Is that what mer does?) Feb 26 12:59:35 Replace the last two? Feb 26 12:59:56 :) Feb 26 13:00:04 do you know of a way to make nokia connection manager support usb ethernet connections? Feb 26 13:00:08 you know, g_ether Feb 26 13:00:09 hi guys, didn't understood it - is this also a kmplayer chan? Feb 26 13:00:22 if i am on the internal flash, is there a way to simulate a boot in chroot or something Feb 26 13:00:54 what i really need is a way to detect what is worng.. Feb 26 13:00:56 or where to bug kmplayer upstream then Feb 26 13:01:20 guysoft42: Are there logs in /var/log? Feb 26 13:01:30 Perhaps you have already checked that . . . Feb 26 13:01:46 jeremiah_, let me have a look Feb 26 13:02:12 If there are logs, look at syslog. Feb 26 13:02:24 And messages, if that is present. Feb 26 13:02:36 You might also want to look at dmesg Feb 26 13:02:37 guysoft42, just get a correct initfs Feb 26 13:02:43 and you can boot anything Feb 26 13:03:03 AStorm: So you suspect the initfs is corrupt? Feb 26 13:03:12 no Feb 26 13:03:18 I have no idea, I have not diagnosed this problem myself, Feb 26 13:03:26 just trying to help out. :) Feb 26 13:03:27 I mean guysoft42 can boot any dir via initfs Feb 26 13:03:48 there seems to be in /var/log only something from fontconfig.log Feb 26 13:04:31 jeremiah_, no, it boots fine in to my internal system, i think its something i installed Feb 26 13:08:39 Stskeeps, the boot passes the loading blue bar at the bottom, what stage is that? Feb 26 13:24:28 guysoft42: Aha. Feb 26 13:43:04 how can dpkg show which package a file belongs to? Feb 26 13:43:26 -S Feb 26 13:43:29 danke! Feb 26 13:43:48 jeremiah_: well, we (currently) use a bootmenu which is basically a patcher for initfs Feb 26 13:43:57 and what is the differens between osso-gpsd and libgps in OpenEmbedded? Feb 26 13:44:05 both provide a libgps Feb 26 13:44:26 some patches, supposedly? Feb 26 13:44:32 ok... Feb 26 13:45:11 why does dpkg not know about certain packages even when i enabled red pill mode? Feb 26 13:45:42 which ones? Feb 26 13:45:57 update-rc.d Feb 26 13:46:00 dpkg is always in red pill ;> Feb 26 13:46:01 certain libraries Feb 26 13:46:02 etc Feb 26 13:46:11 dpkg is broken as hell if what I experience is the norm Feb 26 13:46:17 no insult meant Feb 26 13:46:33 not dpkg, but rather maemo ;p Feb 26 13:46:39 (your version) Feb 26 13:46:41 as well, yes! Feb 26 13:46:48 really hush hush job Feb 26 13:46:52 meaning someone installed things by hand Feb 26 13:46:55 as long as it looks pretty it is ok Feb 26 13:47:00 oh. Feb 26 13:47:05 also some system libs? Feb 26 13:47:12 yes, possible Feb 26 13:47:28 try mer, it doesn't have this problem Feb 26 13:47:30 http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Navit_on_OpenEmbedded_for_n810#Installation see first attamept there Feb 26 13:47:40 a number of stuff is a dependency Feb 26 13:47:44 most of it *IS* on the system Feb 26 13:47:58 which n810 distro doesn't suffer from these issues? Feb 26 13:48:22 mer, again (but you get to make a gpsdriver package) Feb 26 13:48:39 mer? Feb 26 13:48:43 mer is based on mobile ubuntu Feb 26 13:48:47 .mer Feb 26 13:48:54 I must build navit with the same gpslib stuff as is on the n810 Feb 26 13:49:01 then dpkg might not complain? Feb 26 13:49:11 ubuntu is also apt-get/dpkg? Feb 26 13:49:11 most likely Feb 26 13:49:17 that is my approach Feb 26 13:49:21 yeah... stupid question Feb 26 13:49:26 because when I do an apt-get -f install Feb 26 13:49:35 to fix the dependency stuff it keeps complaining about Feb 26 13:49:41 even though I forced stuff Feb 26 13:49:44 and it even works... Feb 26 13:49:46 AStorm: not based on ubuntu mobile :P it's based on ubuntu jaunty, but not any part of u-m (except hildon-icons..) Feb 26 13:49:53 then it proposes to delete half of the system! Feb 26 13:50:10 thanks Feb 26 13:50:13 will do a fresh build... Feb 26 13:50:34 (in scratchbox ofc) Feb 26 13:50:42 no scratchbox Feb 26 13:50:46 this is an OE attempt Feb 26 13:51:10 and when I reboot Feb 26 13:51:15 I have to reinsert my sd card? Feb 26 13:51:18 to get it mounted? Feb 26 13:53:54 udovdh: no,why? Feb 26 13:54:12 because OE also works for my HP ipaq H2210 Feb 26 13:57:03 and I would not want to install extra stuff when OE also works Feb 26 13:57:15 quick! Feb 26 13:57:31 open question: what stuff does scratchbox provide that OE can't do, spcicially for building stuff? Feb 26 13:58:13 btw: how do I kill the wifi from the cli? Feb 26 13:58:21 just to save some battery? Feb 26 13:58:25 udovdh: OE is focused exclusively on cross-compiling, and Scratchbox admits there are some cross-compilation scenarios that cannot work without binary emulation Feb 26 13:58:40 (AFAIK) Feb 26 13:58:40 emulation? Feb 26 13:58:58 hmmm. no expert there, but if I cna build navit... :-) Feb 26 14:00:00 hehe Feb 26 14:00:14 i gave up on the maemo platform as it is now, personally :P Feb 26 14:00:45 hmmm I am about to Feb 26 14:00:53 just propose a sane(r) alternative Feb 26 14:00:59 and with some time I can make the switch Feb 26 14:05:18 well, Mer, in time. :P Feb 26 14:06:46 ETA? Feb 26 14:07:20 fwiw: http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Navit_on_Ã…ngström Feb 26 14:07:21 as it goes, http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer for progress Feb 26 14:07:36 http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Navit_on_OpenEmbedded_for_n810 Feb 26 14:07:42 thanks Feb 26 14:07:49 test out the vmdk i guess Feb 26 14:08:21 why Navit and not maemo mapper, btw? Feb 26 14:08:40 where do I get extra maps for mapper? Feb 26 14:08:46 I was already running navit on ipaq Feb 26 14:08:53 as an upcoming tomtom alternative Feb 26 14:08:55 fetching them through the downloader, for instance :P Feb 26 14:09:04 or adding google maps or other map repositories Feb 26 14:09:06 just wanted slightly better hardware Feb 26 14:09:14 google maps for routing? Feb 26 14:09:29 true, not so easy Feb 26 14:09:44 openstreepmap.org Feb 26 14:09:52 not perfect but a good project Feb 26 14:11:24 where can I find libdbus for latest maemo? Feb 26 14:11:33 or can I downgrade/install it using apt-get? Feb 26 14:12:04 libdbus should be fairly up to date, afaik Feb 26 14:12:15 and the latest for your OS release is in the SDK release for it Feb 26 14:13:07 Stskeeps, yes, but I overwrote it with the one I built in OE Feb 26 14:13:12 ah :P Feb 26 14:13:14 starting the whole dpkg madness Feb 26 14:13:21 so I want to make it as it was Feb 26 14:13:29 apt-get install --reinstall Feb 26 14:13:33 and then build navit with libs deps with same versions Feb 26 14:13:45 and that will overwrite a newer version? Feb 26 14:13:53 think so Feb 26 14:14:44 see Feb 26 14:14:44 http://pastebin.com/d1191c3cb Feb 26 14:14:50 it needs help Feb 26 14:15:31 dpkg -i the old dbus-glib? Feb 26 14:15:49 but honestly, things like this is why i am not fond of maemo OS as it is right now. Feb 26 14:17:04 Stskeeps, can I have dpkg/apt-get show the url for libdbus? Feb 26 14:17:08 so I cna install it by hand? Feb 26 14:17:13 udovdh: apt-cache search Feb 26 14:17:15 lo VDVsx Feb 26 14:17:45 hi Stskeeps Feb 26 14:17:47 no url, just description? Feb 26 14:17:54 hmm. Feb 26 14:18:26 udovdh: apt-cache show PKG Feb 26 14:19:24 Stskeeps, thanks, bo url.. will gogole now Feb 26 14:19:54 http://repository.maemo.org/pool/maemo4.1/free/d/dbus/ Feb 26 14:21:13 tadaa! done... pfew... :-) Feb 26 14:23:15 hmmm... Feb 26 14:29:39 lo maddler! Feb 26 14:35:01 suihkulokki: thumbs up on the kernel gsoc idea, very good idea :) Feb 26 14:35:26 suihkulokki: but maybe it's easier to target -omap instead of mainline? Feb 26 14:37:38 problems after reinstalling mcalender in the n800.de-forum ... http://pastebin.com/d1f61d11b Feb 26 15:06:11 grrr, my debian/rules file isn't working :( Feb 26 15:06:34 I have a rule to copy a sudoers file to /etc/sudoers.d/ but the file isn't copied Feb 26 15:07:16 how offer me a hand testing a package ? :) Feb 26 15:07:40 hello Feb 26 15:08:01 is there a trick to tell dpkg that a certain package is installed when it isn't at this time, according to dpkg? Feb 26 15:08:11 (but the files ARE on the filesystem) Feb 26 15:09:22 See http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Navit_on_OpenEmbedded_for_n810#Installation Feb 26 15:09:54 difference between first and second block is by building dbus-1-3 1.0.2 instead of 1.0.3 on OE Feb 26 15:10:08 now I built gpsd as well with the right libgps.so.15.whatever Feb 26 15:10:19 but a few things remain that are installed on the n810 Feb 26 15:10:25 but dpkg doesn't know about them Feb 26 15:13:41 VDVsx: I can take a look at your debian/rules Feb 26 15:14:51 mgedmin, starts here: https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/releases/0.2/?root=bluemaemo (not a autotools project) Feb 26 15:15:49 mgedmin, the strange thing here, it that the version 0.1 deb works fine and now doesn't work anymore Feb 26 15:18:35 ... looks ok Feb 26 15:20:01 mgedmin, everthing works except the sudoers file that isn't copied in my system :( Feb 26 15:20:18 if I run as superuser the app works Feb 26 15:22:04 aaaugh garage gives me a nicely html-formatted page for the .diff.gz Feb 26 15:22:08 I can't wget it easily Feb 26 15:25:51 mgedmin, can you try to install the package ? Feb 26 15:26:26 just built the .devb Feb 26 15:26:40 grr my mc is sorting by filename extension Feb 26 15:26:47 no, by size Feb 26 15:27:14 well, the .deb does contain /etc/sudoers.d/bluemaemo.sudoers Feb 26 15:27:36 VDVsx: it's a bad idea for the .deb to contain files in /home/user! Feb 26 15:28:28 when you uninstall, these will be removed Feb 26 15:28:29 here I put user config files ? Feb 26 15:28:56 /home/user is a good place for the config files Feb 26 15:29:01 but the deb shouldn't claim ownership Feb 26 15:29:16 typically the program creates a default config file on startup (or when the user explicitly saves settings) Feb 26 15:29:43 humm, ok Feb 26 15:30:08 or you have a default config file in /etc and a dotfile in ~/ overrides that Feb 26 15:31:17 the .deb looks as if it should correctly update the sudoers file :/ Feb 26 15:32:11 * mgedmin tries dpkg -i Feb 26 15:32:32 dependency problems, I don't have python2.5-edje, evas, ecore, efl-core etc.... Feb 26 15:32:40 * mgedmin apt-get install -f Feb 26 15:32:57 wants to remove osso-software-version-rx44, why? Feb 26 15:33:09 I think they are in extras Feb 26 15:33:11 VDVsx, does this version enable the bluetooth if not enabled? :) Feb 26 15:33:26 qwerty12, yup Feb 26 15:33:32 Wicked, thanks :) Feb 26 15:33:39 mgedmin, strange Feb 26 15:33:40 mgedmin: Because the package conflicts with the strict deps of o-s-v? Feb 26 15:34:13 could be some other deb I installed for testing purposes Feb 26 15:34:26 metalayer-crawler0_1.3.19-3_armel.deb is rather starting at me from my /media/mmc1 Feb 26 15:34:35 qwerty12, but the .deb is a little bit broken right know :) Feb 26 15:34:40 mgedmin: Or install osv-unlocked. Feb 26 15:34:55 yup, osso-software-version-rx44: Depends: metalayer-crawler0 (= 1.3.19-2) but 1.3.19-3 is to be installed Feb 26 15:35:16 W: Unable to locate package osv-unlocked Feb 26 15:35:18 VDVsx, heh, is it mainly the sudoers thing? :) Feb 26 15:35:42 mgedmin, osso-software-version-rx4-unlocked Feb 26 15:35:47 s/4/44/ Feb 26 15:35:47 qwerty12 meant: mgedmin, osso-software-version-rx44-unlocked Feb 26 15:36:01 qwerty12, yup, the sudoers file isn't copied :( Feb 26 15:36:02 mgedmin: http://wiki.maemo.org/Seamless_Software_Update Feb 26 15:37:12 VDVsx: when I open your bluemaemo_0.2-1_armel.deb from garage with gdebi, I also see etc/sudoers.d/bluemaemo.sudoers inside Feb 26 15:37:31 will test if the postinst script does its job now Feb 26 15:37:42 "Updating Sudoers" was duly echo'ed Feb 26 15:37:59 user ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/bluemaemo is in my /etc/sudoers Feb 26 15:38:22 so I broke something in my system Feb 26 15:38:26 :( Feb 26 15:38:31 now this is a deb I dpkg-buildpackage'd myself from the .dsc, .diff.gz and .tar.gz I just downloaded from garage Feb 26 15:38:39 I could test the .deb from garage too, if you want? Feb 26 15:38:55 mgedmin, yes, please :) Feb 26 15:39:25 * mgedmin curses the wget-unfriendly garage browser again Feb 26 15:40:35 seems to work Feb 26 15:40:49 unless it's the leftover from the earlier, working, package Feb 26 15:40:57 * mgedmin tries apt-get remove bluemaemo Feb 26 15:41:32 * mgedmin also does rm /etc/sudoers.d/bluemaemo.sudoers && update-sudoers Feb 26 15:41:41 and now dpkg -i again Feb 26 15:41:56 bingo Feb 26 15:41:57 fail Feb 26 15:41:59 grep bluemaemo /etc/sudoers is empty Feb 26 15:42:12 /etc/sudoers.d/bluemaemo is not there Feb 26 15:42:33 strange Feb 26 15:42:38 oh! Feb 26 15:42:39 I know! Feb 26 15:42:40 dpkg!!! Feb 26 15:42:41 mgedmin, do dpkg --purge and then reinstall Feb 26 15:42:45 dpkg conffile management Feb 26 15:42:54 it sees that I manually rm'ed a conffile, it thinks I want it gone forever Feb 26 15:42:59 that could explain VDVsx's problems too Feb 26 15:43:18 yes I removed the bluemaemo.sudoers file too Feb 26 15:43:27 btw, "dpkg - warning: while removing bluemaemo, directory `/home/user' not empty so not removed." is a scary message Feb 26 15:43:40 debs shouldn't claim /home/user Feb 26 15:43:59 I gonna change that :) Feb 26 15:55:33 now I have the sudoers file updated correctly but the app fails when need superuser privileges :( Feb 26 15:57:01 Are you trying to run bluemaemo as root or certain commands, run by bluemaemo, as root? Feb 26 15:57:51 jaffa! Feb 26 15:58:01 anotther question: Feb 26 15:58:14 how do i get gpsd started for the internal gps of the n810? Feb 26 15:58:54 qwerty12, certain commands inside bluemaemo need root prev Feb 26 15:59:17 Your sudoers file is wrong then, that only allows bluemaemo to be ran as root Feb 26 15:59:44 qwerty12, the strange thing is that I have the same setup of the first version Feb 26 16:00:02 Ofc, if bluemaemo is ran as root, any subsequent commands ran from bluemaemo would be ran as root but I don't know if bluemaemo is running as root or user Feb 26 16:00:52 qwerty12, is run as user, "python /usr/lib/...bluemaemo" Feb 26 16:01:28 Yeah, then the sudoers file is having little effect as you only have a rule to run bluemaemo as root Feb 26 16:01:45 *not* the commands you want bluemaemo to run as root Feb 26 16:02:27 qwerty12, but its exactly the same commands as the first version of bluemaemo Feb 26 16:03:19 Which don't seem to be working for this version. Feb 26 16:07:04 kaboom. Feb 26 16:09:58 Bell Canada is charging $.15CAD for a Twitter message Feb 26 16:10:02 Isn't that sweet? Feb 26 16:15:08 arm/linux based open-source robot helicopter sentries http://ng.uavp.ch/moin/Features Feb 26 16:18:49 deadly green lasers? Feb 26 16:19:55 no deadly lasers - FAIL. Feb 26 16:20:25 did you see the crocodiles with magnets. that would make an impressive turret base Feb 26 16:20:50 yea, that's a good idea Feb 26 16:21:11 i think the same principle would work with sharks Feb 26 16:21:16 remote controlled (via GSM) crocodile with a laser turret Feb 26 16:21:35 lcuk: no, there are problems with radio waves in water Feb 26 16:21:45 + a shark will have less targets Feb 26 16:22:29 you could give the shark an offline map device Feb 26 16:22:30 lcuk: Have you seen the famous FL picture of python vs croc? Feb 26 16:22:53 but you might be right, possibly dolphins or whales would be better, they can get bearings every few minutes when they resurface Feb 26 16:23:06 no rst Feb 26 16:23:11 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4313978.stm Feb 26 16:23:34 Apparently a few pet pythons ran away from their owners and found FL swamps comfortable Feb 26 16:23:40 ohhhh yes, i remember that one Feb 26 16:24:15 Everglades is a wild, wild place =) Feb 26 16:25:32 yeah, teres lots of things out there Feb 26 16:25:55 crap, speaking of wild animals, customer on phone, bbl Feb 26 16:37:19 <_berto_> is there something wrong with the autobuilder ? I uploaded vagalume 0.7.1 a few ago and it compiled fine, but it's not in extras-devel yet Feb 26 16:46:20 lcuk: is customer trying to swallow you whole? =) Feb 26 17:00:06 8001 is a Mac? :P Feb 26 17:02:21 Stskeeps, GAN8001 is my 3rd nick that this machine fell back to when GeneralAntilles got kicked at some point last night. :P Feb 26 17:02:31 hehe Feb 26 17:03:30 Wow, and I thought I was oblivious. I've been lurking here mostly for months, and only just figured out GAN was you. Feb 26 17:03:49 fauxmight: it took me quite a while too Feb 26 17:06:21 Stskeeps: most of those drivers have already been in linux-omap (tony cleaned them out at some point) Feb 26 17:07:01 *nod* Feb 26 17:08:19 * Stskeeps will be happy to see any kernel progress Feb 26 17:09:48 RST38h, if you want to be able to actually use rox-filer (if you installed it), replace /usr/bin/rox (after installing that deb) with: http://qwerty12.maemobox.org/rox.tar.bz2 (toolbar hildonized, fullscreen added & mapped right click function to menu button) Feb 26 17:10:15 qwerty12: thumbs up on apt btw Feb 26 17:10:23 It works sanely? Feb 26 17:10:24 you can mark it 100% Feb 26 17:10:25 yeah Feb 26 17:10:34 didn't test x86 yet but i will Feb 26 17:10:39 Cool, I'll make the patch a quilt one. Feb 26 17:11:15 k Feb 26 17:11:20 So, time to promote maemoorg-splash and athf-splash yet? Feb 26 17:11:41 * qwerty12 can vouch for athf-splash (without being biased, I promise) Feb 26 17:12:57 athf? Feb 26 17:13:16 aqua teen hunger force Feb 26 17:14:27 Promoting. . . . Feb 26 17:14:50 qwerty12, looked at e2fsprogs yet? :P Feb 26 17:15:59 Nope :P. IIRC, the chinook version was uploaded by me so I could upload cfdisk & parted... but I never tested (having a tablet that has diablo and all..). I've got e2fsprogs installed on the tablet currently, lemme remove and test Feb 26 17:16:58 woo, 770 wifi \o/ Feb 26 17:17:07 Stskeeps: w00t Feb 26 17:22:15 qwerty: Please, please, add it to extras! Feb 26 17:22:50 RST38h, maybe, if it works somewhat ok :P Feb 26 17:23:13 qwerty: if the right button issue is solved, it should work, right? Feb 26 17:23:31 Sure, but its a quick job Feb 26 17:24:02 s/its/it's/ Feb 26 17:24:02 qwerty12 meant: Sure, but it's a quick job Feb 26 17:26:40 that would be the first fully usable file manager Feb 26 17:34:13 fully usable file managers are for n00bs Feb 26 17:34:39 real men like pain and suffering Feb 26 17:35:26 ~torture Proteous Feb 26 17:35:27 * infobot forces Proteous to support Debian GNU/Hurd in production. Feb 26 17:35:33 heh Feb 26 17:35:34 No. He's not a real man. Feb 26 17:35:37 ~cuddle Proteous Feb 26 17:35:38 * infobot grabs Proteous and cuddles until Proteous begs for mercy Feb 26 17:35:53 gah Feb 26 17:36:08 GeneralAntilles, diablo version from extras-devel installed fine in red pill mode from h-a-m. Although you have a quite a few libs from the e2fsprogs section to promote too :) Feb 26 17:36:19 RST38h, Test it first, hit me with the problems and maybe then it can be decided if it's actually usable :) Feb 26 18:03:28 mgedmin, thanks for your help, you resolved my problem :) Feb 26 18:17:34 t_s_o, circle _feed_? :P Feb 26 18:18:24 i was pondering a more "common" variant... Feb 26 18:18:51 but something told me the automated sensurship would pick that up... Feb 26 18:18:53 * Stskeeps ponders of some creative use of the ipaq 3630 Feb 26 18:20:41 * t_s_o wonders what use he can find for his newly acquired eeepc 900 Feb 26 18:21:03 Stskeeps, what res is your 3630 Feb 26 18:21:41 hey, does mer work in Xen -pv ? :) Feb 26 18:22:08 timeless: no clue, does it boot normal linux kernels? :P Feb 26 18:22:37 well, i think it wants a pv driver somewhere Feb 26 18:22:49 what really takes to get mer running is running kernel, a solid root fs and a xorg supported device Feb 26 18:23:21 http://bderzhavets.wordpress.com/2008/10/24/setup-vnc-on-ubuntu-hardy-pv-domu-at-solaris-nevada-dom0-build-98/ Feb 26 18:23:45 mm, i kinda wish i could get xen working on my nexenta install Feb 26 18:23:54 my backup server has a lot of unused resources Feb 26 18:24:44 my nexenta is in the middle of being retired Feb 26 18:25:00 could you try to help me to setup Mer w/ pv? :) Feb 26 18:25:15 figure out if ubuntu has a kernel package for it and it should be pretty trivia Feb 26 18:25:36 (it looks like it) Feb 26 18:25:49 jeremiah_: ? Feb 26 18:25:56 sorry, debian/ubuntu confuse me too much, i'm asking for help :) Feb 26 18:26:07 (this is from someone who actually did debootstrap nexenta into snv) Feb 26 18:26:16 fair enough Feb 26 18:26:18 sec Feb 26 18:26:40 note: i believe my box is not hvm enabled, otherwise there are a bunch of tutorials which should work Feb 26 18:27:06 i'll at some point reboot the box and poke bios a bit Feb 26 18:27:51 so what does it boot, a filesystem or a disk image? Feb 26 18:28:12 i think it can probably pick Feb 26 18:28:21 i'd probably rather give it a disk image Feb 26 18:28:48 remember i do have a vmdk w/ a Mer Feb 26 18:28:53 (albeit a fairly lame mer) Feb 26 18:29:34 hmm, it looks a little like they dropped xen for kvm Feb 26 18:30:58 i guess i'd want to take my mer and install vnc*server Feb 26 18:31:09 (and xinetd) Feb 26 18:31:47 yeah, should be trivial, grab x11vnc i gues Feb 26 18:31:47 s Feb 26 18:31:55 oh, yeah, so, linux-image-xen is the key bit Feb 26 18:32:06 and you're saying that's dead? Feb 26 18:32:22 yeah, they are endorsing KVM it seems Feb 26 18:32:31 since intrepid or something Feb 26 18:32:39 hi, diablo said, setupterm() failed for TERM=xterm: 0 what it means by that? Feb 26 18:33:33 * timeless wonders if grub can autodetect xen Feb 26 18:33:47 so it seems like a bit of a dead end currently Feb 26 18:34:30 hahlo: which command said that? Feb 26 18:35:17 mgedmin: irssi Feb 26 18:35:42 maybe you don't have the terminfo library installed Feb 26 18:35:50 I think it comes with the ncurses-base package Feb 26 18:36:08 thanks Feb 26 18:38:09 who is the responsible(s) for upload to extras invitations ? Feb 26 18:39:58 think X-Fade does them Feb 26 18:43:41 X-Fade Feb 26 18:45:18 X-Fade, when you have some time, accept my request (if possible) :) Feb 26 18:48:09 VDVsx, when was it sent? Feb 26 18:49:50 GeneralAntilles, ~2-3 h, I think Feb 26 18:52:54 VDVsx, turnaround time is usually a day. :P Feb 26 19:00:47 great Feb 26 19:00:57 people have started to charge for shitty apps on the android market Feb 26 19:00:59 lol Feb 26 19:01:36 GeneralAntilles, ah ok, didn't know :) Feb 26 19:02:39 GeneralAntilles, I thought more that one person have access to that (including you :) ) Feb 26 19:03:07 VDVsx, well, they could, but I'd just as soon let X-Fade do all the work. :P Feb 26 19:03:49 why does google offer https pages by default to maemo wiki Feb 26 19:03:56 i just tried searching mer 0.8 Feb 26 19:04:44 ask them :) Feb 26 19:14:55 lcuk: because they are an evil conglomerate bent on world domination starting with their search engine Feb 26 19:15:27 its 1 link though lol Feb 26 19:15:34 the others arent Feb 26 19:15:39 doesn't it always start out small? Feb 26 19:15:40 i think it was how people referenced it Feb 26 19:15:51 heh, skyne errrr google did start out smal Feb 26 19:15:52 l Feb 26 19:16:11 and now they are in phase 2 Feb 26 19:16:27 i still think their stock is overinflated Feb 26 19:16:38 everyones stock is overinflated Feb 26 19:16:47 hah! not anymore! :) Feb 26 19:17:00 only google's Feb 26 19:25:24 Why is it that everybody seems to think the tablets are dead? Feb 26 19:25:42 I think Nokia has really mis stepped with the "delay the announcement" plan. . . . Feb 26 19:26:03 I'm trying to think of a generic way to submit two pieces of information in a POST: the position of a preference, and the name of the preference Feb 26 19:26:04 General: You seriously do not know why? Feb 26 19:26:16 Or was it a rhetorical question? =) Feb 26 19:26:18 I'm thinking "preferenceN=voteM" Feb 26 19:26:33 RST38h: I don't know why Feb 26 19:26:35 RST38h, there seems to be plenty of activity from where I'm sitting. Feb 26 19:26:40 Me too Feb 26 19:26:58 Engadget has had more than a few posts on the matter. Feb 26 19:27:06 Seems like the people announcing the death of the tablet are people who should know better Feb 26 19:29:45 dneary,General: It is a simple combination of the recent flood of Atom based mobile gadgets that look like NIT + Nokia's own abandonment of the current tablet and its firmware Feb 26 19:30:30 I *know* this does not indicate anything but the public as a whole interpretes the situation as the end of the tablet Feb 26 19:31:19 + you have now got an iphone look-alike from just about everybody in the industry, many of them with 800x480 screens Feb 26 19:32:44 "The girl, who had been using a games console regularly, recovered fully after 10 days of abstinence." Feb 26 19:34:20 people are funny. half the world's population would buy a $300 brick over an atom or arm if it looked "cuter" Feb 26 19:34:53 girl, who , what? Feb 26 19:36:06 neat: That, again, is of no difference to the situation Feb 26 19:36:33 i don't think nokia has abandoned NIT, they are just in sleeper moed, the real power of NIT would have been WiMax, which is not fully adopted yet Feb 26 19:36:43 yeah, but it sure is funny (to me) :) Feb 26 19:37:00 The main thing is that the tablet is no longer alone in its niche and, given perceived abandonment of the current OMAP2 design, many feel that it is the end of the road Feb 26 19:38:05 RST38h: I think nokia will come with a wimax only touch phone instead, so it can be considered as evolution Feb 26 19:38:54 geoaxis, they are not sleeping. Feb 26 19:39:08 See: http://maemo.org/news/announcements/07a262bcedec11ddabdc07d2d12051a151a1/ Feb 26 19:39:24 and WiMAX isn't anything more than a niche that has so far failed to pan out. Feb 26 19:39:44 GeneralAntilles: i believe it will be common place in 5 years Feb 26 19:40:10 but thats my gut feeling (after working for a wimax startup) Feb 26 19:41:04 Yes, but by that time LTE will be deployed and it wont much matter. Feb 26 19:41:09 The next tablet is coming with HSPA anyway. Feb 26 19:41:41 * mgedmin had HSDPA as the primary means of net access for the last 3 weeks Feb 26 19:41:45 * mgedmin decided that it sucks Feb 26 19:42:11 Depends a lot on your location. Feb 26 19:42:17 and your equipment. Feb 26 19:42:44 I would never use it as primary access (150ms+ latency just doesn't cut it) but for mobile access it's fine. Feb 26 19:43:13 geoaxis: Whenreading crystal balls, you have to be realistic Feb 26 19:43:58 And being realistic, I would say HSDPA will be used, but not WiMax Feb 26 19:44:24 mgedmin: What are the problems with HSDPA? Feb 26 19:44:35 spotty coverage, I suspect Feb 26 19:44:48 Ah, that is an implementation detail :) Feb 26 19:44:56 staring at a blinking green light on the 3g usb modem for 40 minutes straight and muttering "connect damnit" is not fun Feb 26 19:45:20 anyway, certainly better than nothing, but worse than wifi Feb 26 19:45:34 I don't even know why I mentioned it Feb 26 19:45:44 must be my procrastination instincts kicking in Feb 26 19:45:55 mgedmin: sounds bad Feb 26 19:46:00 ("he thinks it's time to leave work! quick, start a random conversation on irc!") Feb 26 19:46:15 The other problem with Nokia delaying the announcement is people driving their expectations up. Feb 26 19:46:35 So they've set one group up for disappointment and another to entirely forget the platform. Feb 26 19:47:08 * RST38h asks the Tentacled One to make MTS finally deploy 3G throughout the city. Bankrupt them if they don't, the Wise One. Feb 26 19:47:51 General: Oh, in this situation people will do all kinds of manic things Feb 26 19:48:08 General: For reference, look at the last years of AmigaOS Feb 26 19:48:41 Hopefully the alpha release will help, anyway. Feb 26 19:54:33 gan, so, do you remember os2007' Feb 26 19:54:51 * timelE61i noticed that the chat app was called "IM" Feb 26 19:56:05 Vaguely Feb 26 19:56:37 * timelE61i wonders what caused them to change it Feb 26 19:57:11 General: I do not think alpha release will help because it is mostly of interest to developers Feb 26 19:57:57 They could just release some totally bogus pics that would keep down the anxiety and then closer tot the release, when they're really ready..do the real thing. And then just say the concept evolved....as long as it wasn't a downgrade in quality/aesthetics people probably wouldn't care. Feb 26 19:58:23 then of course there's the classic "leaked" info... Feb 26 20:00:06 the leaked pics of the n810 looked horrid Feb 26 20:00:19 the final device was a substantive upgrade in aesthetics Feb 26 20:00:26 see.. Feb 26 20:00:33 my point exaclty Feb 26 20:01:26 I almost didn't buy an n810 because of that leaked pic Feb 26 20:01:30 RST38h, it'll have at least some of the UI. Feb 26 20:01:32 here, maybe I'll go make some mockups to "leak" from Nokia. Feb 26 20:01:38 Which is something that's of interest to more than developers. Feb 26 20:01:43 * neatojones starts up mspaint Feb 26 20:01:49 :D Feb 26 20:02:06 I didn't believe the leaked pics of the N810 were a Maemo device until it was announced. . . . Feb 26 20:02:09 I suppose ascii-art leaks would be too suspicious to fool anybody.... Feb 26 20:03:24 my mspaint skills are sweet..its gonna have everyone fooled. :P Feb 26 20:03:49 General: But if Nokia quickly put together a Diablo update with *some* features form Fremantle (preferable glitzy stuff), that would be a huge step to improve confidence Feb 26 20:04:14 General: Would 1) showcase what Nokia is doing 2) indicate continuing support for existing users Feb 26 20:04:23 256 color pallete baby! Feb 26 20:06:21 Too bad they are still treating tablets the same as their phones - "We give you the gadget and a couple of firmware updates (if you are lucky) and then you are on your own" Feb 26 20:07:19 The N800 got two major OS release and updates spanning 2 years. Feb 26 20:07:24 RST38h: but they're also are showing a ton of support of the community-led stuff Feb 26 20:07:29 Nto quite up to par, but certainly not quite the same as the phones. Feb 26 20:08:11 RST38h: Otherwise, I tend to agree... yet another 'awesome hardware, not up to snuff software' thing ;) Feb 26 20:08:52 RST38h: They're at least doing the smart thing by leveraging open source with that kind of model - maybe they recognize their weakness ;) Feb 26 20:09:50 Pebby: A simple non-developer, non-linux, non-oss tablet user does not see that stuff and does not care Feb 26 20:10:10 All he cares is that support for his current gadget seems to be disappearing and there is no new gadget in sight Feb 26 20:10:20 biggest selling point for 770 have had to be the mahjong game, heh Feb 26 20:10:28 ;) Feb 26 20:10:28 it still is now Feb 26 20:10:43 General: Some overhyped phones like N95 have got more updates :) Feb 26 20:11:16 * RST38h likes Othello and the Pipe thing more though Feb 26 20:11:46 (btw Othello absolutely hates going into Expert mode for some reason) Feb 26 20:12:23 RST38h: Oh, I agree completely.. but there are plenty of OSS projects that are backed by big companies that do really well. I'm just saying it's a step in the right direction, and, I agree... I am a n810 non-user because of the user-level issues ;) Feb 26 20:12:56 evening ssvb Feb 26 20:13:12 pEbby? Eh? Feb 26 20:13:25 User level issues? Feb 26 20:13:59 hi Stskeeps Feb 26 20:14:47 ssvb: got proper wifi on 770 now btw excepting the performance fix (based on 1.2) Feb 26 20:14:48 timelE61i: Mostly UI issues - while tons of smartphones have taken novel approaches to UI, my n810 has seen no improvements ;) Feb 26 20:16:27 Andre? Feb 26 20:16:36 yes. Feb 26 20:16:42 Setting up 1109 should be simple Feb 26 20:16:59 And conceptually, it's a fairly safe bet it happens Feb 26 20:17:13 He should be able to give you a backup that triggers it Feb 26 20:17:24 In fact, you could write one Feb 26 20:17:59 0. Set locale to pt-BR. 1. Make a backup of seTtings. Feb 26 20:18:14 2. Use "unzip" on a desktop Feb 26 20:18:36 3. For simplicity, make another backup w/ locale en-US. Feb 26 20:18:40 4. Use "unzip" on a desktop Feb 26 20:18:45 5. Diff them Feb 26 20:18:52 hmm, interesting idea Feb 26 20:18:54 You'll find the relevant line Feb 26 20:19:07 I presume you can finish this story Feb 26 20:19:37 Anyway, we know it should happen Feb 26 20:19:55 Pebby: By "novel approaches" do you mean "various custom shells on top of WinMobile"? Feb 26 20:20:49 RST38h: Again, as the end-user, all I know is what it feels like when I pick it up and use it. I don't care how it's made, etc. Feb 26 20:21:26 pebby: each of 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008 had a different ui feel Feb 26 20:21:41 Not necessarily big, but certainly noticable Feb 26 20:22:11 And considerably more jitter than between typical models in a nokia product sequence Feb 26 20:22:28 But we can't say anything about what the future may bring Feb 26 20:22:59 Pebby: but ... What do you want? And have you tried liqbase? Feb 26 20:23:33 * RST38h btw would really like Nokia to sort out scheduling issues. No program eating 100% CPU should stall the UI. Feb 26 20:24:10 rst: which proc? Feb 26 20:24:18 This time it was a crazy guy who used a Sega Light PhaserÁ Feb 26 20:24:34 to kidnap a woman for ten hours. Feb 26 20:24:40 ?? Feb 26 20:25:10 timelE61i: I just learned about liqbase a few days ago actually. I sent him money, haha.. that's exactly the sort of thing the end user needs, imo. Feb 26 20:25:12 browserd, timeless, browserd on OS2008. Feb 26 20:25:38 but it is kinda pointless to raise the issue anyway. Feb 26 20:27:09 Do you use swap? Feb 26 20:28:17 * RST38h uses swap Feb 26 20:28:34 * timelE61i revokes support contract Feb 26 20:29:28 * RST38h does not use swap and things still hang at 100% CPU usage Feb 26 20:29:45 * fireun HATES stalled UI Feb 26 20:29:54 * timelE61i loves it Feb 26 20:29:58 Pebby_, :D Feb 26 20:30:02 * lcuk didnt realise Feb 26 20:30:04 thank you very much Feb 26 20:30:05 * fireun dispises the following shower of clicks that follows Feb 26 20:30:06 can we talk about something else? Feb 26 20:30:30 lcuk: Oh thank YOU! Feb 26 20:30:41 the browser behavior should be better in fremantle Feb 26 20:30:46 software emulation in maemo of hardware acceleration? (; Feb 26 20:31:01 But in theory you're free to renice browserd if you care Feb 26 20:32:01 andre, why is 3792 alive? Feb 26 20:32:11 I wonder how the new MicroB might run in Mer on OMAP2 hardware. Feb 26 20:32:22 * neatojones finished "acquiring" "leaked" N900 images Feb 26 20:32:36 Btw, the bug jar shouldn't mention "MOVED" Feb 26 20:32:40 As we don't use it Feb 26 20:32:42 * fireun waits for N1000 Feb 26 20:33:10 Dangit man my mspaint skills are only so good! Feb 26 20:33:30 I like the psp2 look Feb 26 20:33:38 neatojones: url? ;) Feb 26 20:33:39 even if it seems a bit fragile Feb 26 20:33:45 hold please... Feb 26 20:33:52 timelE61i, why not? Feb 26 20:33:55 GeneralAntilles: i'm just looking forward to microb being OSS again Feb 26 20:34:00 I'm afraid to post to ITT..lawsuit Feb 26 20:34:02 * qwerty12_N800 would like to use the microb-svn in maemo now. but thanks to their fucking around, doesn't sound like a reality that will happen Feb 26 20:34:16 Stskeeps, well, _MicroB_ is and always has been OSS. Feb 26 20:34:33 The Mozilla based browser for Maemo isn't. Feb 26 20:34:34 well. ok. tablet-browser-ui. Feb 26 20:34:34 :P Feb 26 20:34:49 not that midori isn't sexy.. Feb 26 20:34:53 http://i.gizmodo.com/5160139/the-psp-2-will-ditch-umd-according-to-developer Feb 26 20:35:14 timelE61i: ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uk2sPl_Z7ZU Feb 26 20:35:17 midori crashes more than microb Feb 26 20:35:31 UI hanging on 100% CPU usage is not specific to the browser Feb 26 20:35:37 andre: if it's a dupe? Feb 26 20:35:48 For example, it happens when App Manager is installing stuff Feb 26 20:35:49 (and, believe me, that's saying something) Feb 26 20:35:53 mer looks more like 0s2007 Feb 26 20:35:54 qwerty12_N800: yeah, but still :P Feb 26 20:36:03 lcuk: yeah, well, we need icons Feb 26 20:36:09 nEatojones: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uk2sPl_Z7ZU Feb 26 20:36:22 qwerty: Tear does not seem to crash =) Feb 26 20:37:00 ah Feb 26 20:37:12 RST38h: yeah, i've had it crash a few times but on the whole, I do find it a lot better wrt crashing Feb 26 20:37:15 gAn: we believe we're still demoing the new microb on diablo/n8x0 Feb 26 20:37:15 qwerty: has got some scrolling issuesand I kinda hate that awkward progress bar, but beautiful otherwise, thanks to Bundyi Feb 26 20:37:17 o Feb 26 20:37:19 right Feb 26 20:37:36 and afaicr it just works Feb 26 20:38:18 RST38h: yeah, i'd like the progress bar to be somewhat similar to the fission extension Feb 26 20:38:49 yEah, we've mostly dropped svn Feb 26 20:38:49 qwerty: I am ok with the one in MicroB Feb 26 20:39:02 is mer or nUbuntu at a point where its as useful as 2007 ? (n770 specifically) Feb 26 20:39:04 The next microb you'd get would be from hg ;) Feb 26 20:39:15 still no wifi fully functional? Feb 26 20:39:20 posted images on ITT Feb 26 20:39:37 * fireun wishes there was a twitter bot in here to keep up to date Feb 26 20:39:41 Neatojones: did you try our youtube url? :) Feb 26 20:39:43 qwerty: although it may be a non-standard GTK widget Feb 26 20:39:52 RST38h: meh, i find it a bit awkward as buttons get moved Feb 26 20:40:04 not yet Feb 26 20:40:49 qwerty: it is just a progress bar shown behind the URL, no? Feb 26 20:41:04 rst: so... Feb 26 20:41:15 If you're hitting the jffs2 garbage collector Feb 26 20:41:25 That'd be essentially a kernel bottleneck Feb 26 20:41:34 And you can't blame any apps for it Feb 26 20:41:53 * RST38h isn't blaming any apps for it Feb 26 20:42:00 * RST38h is blaming Nokia. Feb 26 20:42:15 RST38h: aye, and that's what I want. but microb adds a progress bar next to the url entrybox Feb 26 20:42:30 Anyone who tells me I am blaming the wrong entity is probably an engineer. Feb 26 20:42:41 fireun: wifi just got functional today Feb 26 20:42:42 saw the video Feb 26 20:42:47 Stskeeps: woot Feb 26 20:42:48 qwerty: Really? Hmm, checking Feb 26 20:42:51 we're replacing jffs2 w/ ubifs for fremantle Feb 26 20:42:55 their a little better than me Feb 26 20:42:59 fireun: but mer isn't the speediest creature on 770 :/ Feb 26 20:43:02 slightly* Feb 26 20:43:17 Sts: why not? :) Feb 26 20:43:28 Also is alarmd fixed? :) Feb 26 20:43:36 no, i've had other things to do today at work so Feb 26 20:43:37 Stskeeps: I'll take "reasonable" if its at all more stable or responsive than 2008 on the 770 Feb 26 20:43:49 qwerty: Oh, yes, how came I did not notice it before? weird Feb 26 20:43:52 timelE61i: well the fact we use automatic update X doesn't help things.. Feb 26 20:44:05 What's that? Feb 26 20:44:22 Stskeeps: and one of my 770s has a borked audio plug, so its ready to get borked with a experimental OS (: Feb 26 20:44:37 timelE61i: as in, the thing with the x server doing manual updates to the framebuffer vs the framebuffer getting automatically updated (slow refresh) Feb 26 20:44:47 same issue on n8x0 really Feb 26 20:45:05 is that xorg.conf tunable? Feb 26 20:45:30 well, we don't use Xomap, so i guess it is tunable in some degree, but driver doesn't support much Feb 26 20:45:35 * r2d2rogers tries liqbase on his 770 in mer Feb 26 20:45:49 um Feb 26 20:45:50 it wont work for now Feb 26 20:46:00 it wont work on 810 either i dont think Feb 26 20:46:02 ;) was worth a try ;) Feb 26 20:46:03 Well.. It didn't work on my normal 770 Feb 26 20:46:04 im just looking myself now Feb 26 20:46:31 I'm just happy wireless is working as well as it was in maemo Feb 26 20:46:52 r2d2rogers: http://bsd.tspre.org/~stskeeps/cx3110x.ko or apt-get update of cx3110x-module-770 should improve things as well.. i think Feb 26 20:47:35 Ok, my 770 ran gregale iirc (2.1 instead of 2.2) Feb 26 20:47:48 * r2d2rogers apt-gets.....

Feb 26 22:40:19 (honestly not too interested in video chat) Feb 26 22:40:49 i dont use a bt earpiece, but i know the supplied headphones have a mic and stuff on em Feb 26 22:41:01 Speakerphone, 3.5mm or Bluetooth. Feb 26 22:41:25 the 3.5mm jack is a 3-channel connection in this case? Feb 26 22:41:26 putting the device directly to your head isnt practical really, the speakers are geared as speakers and not phonesq Feb 26 22:41:35 got it Feb 26 22:42:05 evening GeneralAntilles Feb 26 22:43:42 could it work with a usb headset? Feb 26 22:44:39 If you can get drivers. Feb 26 22:45:56 It just uses the shipped usb audio alsa drivers. Feb 26 22:46:08 shipped, stock, standard, whatever. Feb 26 23:10:07 * lcuk craves bacon Feb 26 23:13:31 press button Feb 26 23:14:06 * lcuk nervously presses button Feb 26 23:15:03 good morning Feb 26 23:15:29 good morning jaem, do you have bacon? Feb 26 23:15:37 wahaha I just see the video about vmware on the n800 Feb 26 23:15:49 lcuk: sadly no Feb 26 23:15:50 wtf they did at vmware Feb 26 23:16:07 yes woglinde looks impressive Feb 26 23:16:30 did they port a l4 kernel? Feb 26 23:16:31 the scaled displays were a nice touch (like my scaled things) Feb 26 23:17:01 i dunno how they did it, but they managed to trick lower level graphics to render at scale Feb 26 23:17:07 is anyone here familiar with b-man's Ubuntu install? I'm getting the "incompatible bootmenu" error, and I couldn't find a solution to that. I presume i just did something stupid Feb 26 23:17:32 okay Feb 26 23:17:36 I am off again Feb 26 23:17:37 bye Feb 26 23:17:49 good nite Feb 26 23:17:54 hi n bye woglinde Feb 26 23:18:49 * GeneralAntilles wonders at there not having been a single nomination. Feb 26 23:50:16 does any one know how to get ubuntu on n800 Feb 26 23:51:31 there's a forum thread, but I'm having issues with bootmenu Feb 26 23:51:39 other than that, it appears to work Feb 26 23:51:57 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25975 Feb 26 23:54:41 awesome thanks Feb 26 23:55:26 has any one thought about packaging this and placing it in lauchpad? Feb 26 23:56:02 that would be great then all it would take is adding a couple of line to sources.list and accouple of command lines Feb 26 23:57:22 rdesfo: it's a completely different distro than Maemo Feb 26 23:57:27 so that wouldn't really work Feb 26 23:57:36 b-man is working on an installer, though Feb 27 00:02:46 anyone installed Nitdroid using script on itt and can't get it to go past Nitdroaid boot screen Feb 27 00:03:38 ARM and microcontroller based homemade helicopters, with gps tracking google earth, gyrscopes etc .. fun http://forum.mikrokopter.de/topic-7118.html Feb 27 00:04:42 cool! Feb 27 00:06:33 I think I wiped my windows partiton when I was doing the install for Nitdroid Feb 27 00:07:40 ahh, evolution (; Feb 27 00:07:41 I can't beleave that Feb 27 00:07:47 survival of the fitest Feb 27 00:07:54 all linux, all the time! Feb 27 00:08:12 it was a subconcious act Feb 27 00:08:20 yeah but my school work was on that partition Feb 27 00:08:22 deep down, you know it was for the best Feb 27 00:08:35 the school work had been tainted. It had to die Feb 27 00:08:42 but still, that's too bad :( Feb 27 00:08:45 oh, well... my condolences Feb 27 00:09:05 now here is the qestion do I reinstall windows or move on and try to live with just the linux Feb 27 00:09:22 I find wine works for all the little things I needed windows for Feb 27 00:09:29 but your milage may vary Feb 27 00:09:32 move on Feb 27 00:09:42 Well there aer some games I don't think I would be able to play Feb 27 00:09:42 or virtualize windows, if your computer can handle it Feb 27 00:10:02 hmm... I don't game, but I haven't found anything else I needed Windows for in the last few years Feb 27 00:10:08 s/few/two/ Feb 27 00:10:09 jaem meant: hmm... I don't game, but I haven't found anything else I needed Windows for in the last two years Feb 27 00:10:18 games maybe you should have stopped play? school work is more important Feb 27 00:10:54 I suddenly realize I havent played a game for months Feb 27 00:11:09 ok found my school work it was back uped to my server Feb 27 00:11:18 good job! Feb 27 00:11:32 was it a *Linux* server? Feb 27 00:11:39 hee Feb 27 00:11:43 jaem you don't want to know : ) Feb 27 00:11:44 otherwise you'll need to print out the homework and burn it Feb 27 00:11:53 purge the windows taint from it Feb 27 00:12:06 jaem: what if the fonts were windows fonts? Feb 27 00:12:08 find me something as good and easy as windows home server and I would Feb 27 00:12:09 okay, I'm just kidding Feb 27 00:12:22 or are you? Feb 27 00:12:24 fireun: then you'd need to go find the guys who wrote the fonts, and burn them Feb 27 00:12:42 good old fashioned proprietary software witch hunt! Feb 27 00:12:47 guess I know why tablet isn't booting Nitdroid I must have flashed it to my windows partiton on desktop lol Feb 27 00:12:54 I spoke with someone the other week who was going to *buy* fonts! thats crazy. Feb 27 00:12:59 it is Feb 27 00:13:04 who *buys* fonts? Feb 27 00:13:22 thats like saying you bougth some words the other day Feb 27 00:13:30 fireun, professionals who use them. Feb 27 00:13:32 my uni spent an obscene amount of money on a new logo, which not only could have been designed by an 8-year old, but also used a really expensive font Feb 27 00:13:47 Alternatively you could ask: "Who *buys* art?" Feb 27 00:14:17 that's a fair point - typography isn't as simple as some might think - you might say it /is/ art Feb 27 00:14:22 fonts = art = questionable Feb 27 00:14:33 questionability is not art Feb 27 00:14:41 proof! Feb 27 00:14:55 (fonts == art) == questionable? Feb 27 00:14:59 and the answer would be true? Feb 27 00:15:01 hrm Feb 27 00:15:10 == maybe Feb 27 00:15:28 which is a derivitive of 'sometimes' Feb 27 00:15:45 yeah Feb 27 00:15:46 but NOT equivelant! Feb 27 00:15:53 what about wingdings? Feb 27 00:15:55 art, or not? Feb 27 00:16:40 useful, or not? Feb 27 00:16:59 not terribly Feb 27 00:17:05 I havnt used a wingding in almost a decade Feb 27 00:17:15 I don't think I ever have Feb 27 00:17:26 maybe that little (c) thing, but I prefer (cc) anyways Feb 27 00:17:44 although I remember back in elementary school, they banned "jokerman", because everyone thought it was cool to use on assignments Feb 27 00:17:50 fireun: I'm with you there Feb 27 00:18:00 and using the wingding for it is not necessary, you can just type (c) (cc) and the idea comes across Feb 27 00:18:22 apparently there are some countries where (c) is not acceptable Feb 27 00:18:24 or so I've heard Feb 27 00:18:42 I've heard people suggesting to other students that they should use currier new, because at 12pt, it fills the page with fewer words! silliness. Feb 27 00:19:02 how about 'copyright 1969' Feb 27 00:19:17 or do they only allow 'copyleft 1969' Feb 27 00:24:42 * GeneralAntilles yanked the power cable on his router while vacuuming. . . . Feb 27 00:24:53 mikkov_, I have a feeling darethehair is going to bring down Extras within the next 72 hours. Feb 27 00:27:22 sometimes, I wonder what language you guys are using... Feb 27 00:27:46 Language? Feb 27 00:29:48 still can't get Nitdroid to boot on my tablet Feb 27 00:30:03 even after I wiped my windows partiton lol Feb 27 00:42:47 can't beleave my day I wiped my windows partition and my tablet at smae time Feb 27 00:51:41 I propose that we organize a channel-wide HDD wiping to show our support and sympathy Feb 27 00:53:50 you first Feb 27 00:54:16 I was going to suggest having everyone type in their root passwords, and then we could do it as a community :P Feb 27 00:54:56 we could do it as a fundraiser... kind of like shaving your heads for cancer Feb 27 00:55:16 ..grr... apt-get in the Ubuntu chroot keeps hanging Feb 27 01:03:17 I may not have wiped my hd today, but I shouldnt have eaten that salmon jombalya Feb 27 01:03:23 oof Feb 27 01:57:48 hi everyone Feb 27 01:58:06 does anyone have experience with creating bootable images for the it's? Feb 27 01:58:21 i'm interested in creating a highly specialized mini-distro for the 770 Feb 27 01:59:03 right now i just want to make a bootable initramfs/initrd image that i can upload to the device with the tool Feb 27 01:59:51 if i need to RTFM i'd be more than happy to read the manual, but i don't know where that is :-) Feb 27 02:02:03 earksiinni, it's the quite time. You'll probably want to talk to Stskeeps or johnx but I don't believe they're here at the moment. Feb 27 02:02:34 GeneralAntilles, thanks again lol :-P Feb 27 02:03:29 Does anyone remember what the warrenty period is on the n810? I'm getting the feeling that I may need to use mine. Feb 27 02:23:04 Mercury, 1 year for the US, should be 3 for EU Feb 27 02:23:07 dunno about other places. Feb 27 02:24:19 Alright, in the US, and it's been less then a year. Feb 27 02:24:36 Damn, I really don't want to be without it for a couple of weeks either. Feb 27 02:24:45 What's the problem? Feb 27 02:26:39 When I plug it into the computer via the micro USB cable, about 50% of the time I get lots and lots of block errors on the computer side (Linux) as it tries to read the partition tables, and the unit's UI locks. I can (sometimes) still ssh into the unit, at which point I see block errors being reported on the internal memory device, Feb 27 02:27:36 I've tried reflashing with the current Maemo build, which did not fix it. If there's a handy tool for doing a full erase of the flash and then a reformat that would probably be next. Feb 27 02:27:57 By "internal memory device" do you mean the 256MB of NAND or the 2GB eMMC? Feb 27 02:28:13 Because the 2GB eMMC shipped with an oversized partition table for a while. Feb 27 02:28:21 So repartitioning might help Feb 27 02:28:23 The 2GB eMMC. Feb 27 02:28:31 The flasher doesn't touch the cards. Feb 27 02:28:35 Only the 256MB of NAND. Feb 27 02:28:47 This is a new issue though, I've had the unit for over 6 months. But I'll definitely give repartitioning and formatting a try. Feb 27 02:29:02 Well, it doesn't crop up instantly. Feb 27 02:29:19 It'll become an issue whenever the out-of-range area of the partition table is used. Feb 27 02:29:27 Hrrm, not sure why it wouldn't be 100% if it's being caused by simply writing past the end, but I'll still give it a shot. Feb 27 02:29:28 Which can be 5 minutes after you start loading data or 6 months. Feb 27 02:30:00 Alternatively the eMMC could just be shot. Feb 27 02:30:07 That's been know to happen once or twice, too. Feb 27 02:30:28 And if that's the case, it's a return for repair issue. Joy. Feb 27 02:31:10 Well, let's hope that repartitioning helps. Feb 27 02:31:25 Any known issues with doing that from a PC with it attached as a mass storage device? Feb 27 02:31:41 Shouldn't be. Feb 27 02:31:57 If it doesn't work, there's always SSH. Feb 27 02:32:28 Stskeeps: I'm actually talking to the guy who makes enlightenment. Hopefully we can get the enlightenment keyboard working Feb 27 02:32:34 Yep. Feb 27 02:32:43 GeneralAntilles: Thank you. :) Feb 27 02:33:16 Mercury, fixed? Feb 27 02:34:38 GeneralAntilles: Still copying ~1G of stuff off the eMMC. :) Feb 27 02:34:46 Hehe Feb 27 02:34:53 The USB interface is SLOOW Feb 27 02:36:07 Given that I mostly use it for ebooks. :) Feb 27 02:40:32 I sure hope this works, I don't really want to go batshit insane due to lack of something to read with. :) Feb 27 02:41:53 Heya Feb 27 02:42:09 I need a little help, a small amount of handholding if you will Feb 27 02:43:00 I managed to set up Xephyr to forward X information to cygwin X on my xp machine, and I can start the emulator Feb 27 02:43:26 but what im having a hard time with is understanding what things go where when it comes to the emulator's environment Feb 27 02:43:51 I'm a bit confused at which manuals to read, since I go through them and end up feeling like they still skipped over some very fundamental things Feb 27 02:44:00 which I simply am not used to Feb 27 02:44:28 basically I'm asking how to put a compiled helloworld into a folder or file that the emulator will see and allow me to run Feb 27 02:46:53 mido, have you read this? http://maemo.org/development/training/maemo_getting_started_content/plain_html/node5/ Feb 27 02:47:15 oh my :o Feb 27 02:47:35 tank-man, lemme go through it and see if I still need help after that; thanks a lot Feb 27 02:48:00 good luck Feb 27 02:54:19 I really appreciate it :) Feb 27 02:55:26 hi Feb 27 02:58:25 bonjour **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Feb 27 02:59:57 2009
