**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon May 04 02:59:57 2009 May 04 03:16:35 hello May 04 03:17:06 can anyone help? my n800 is "talking" May 04 03:18:00 I installed kde and there seems to be some text to speech going on May 04 03:18:15 how can I stop it? May 04 03:27:14 what can it be? May 04 03:33:48 are the back/home buttons on the n810 supposed to be backlit? May 04 03:33:57 Nope May 04 03:34:04 they aren't May 04 03:34:20 cool, then it's not broken May 04 03:34:35 :) May 04 03:34:43 hooray for non-broken stuff May 04 03:34:49 thanks May 04 03:58:48 I finally figured out what made my n800 talk flite on Mauku May 04 04:30:14 any place to download qt mapper source that isn't https? May 04 04:30:22 or at least one with a curl-happy cert? May 04 04:30:51 cant use https? May 04 04:31:11 luke-jr: try with taking the s out May 04 04:32:32 it redirects May 04 04:32:37 oh May 04 04:32:40 worth a try :) May 04 04:32:42 zakkm: wget doesn't like garage's https cert May 04 04:33:02 cant think of what i did to go around that May 04 04:47:50 Hello. May 04 04:50:50 why is the cache of the browser disabled by default? May 04 04:51:15 probably to minimize flash writes May 04 04:52:29 worse :) browser doesn't have on-disk cache at all May 04 04:52:47 ö May 04 04:52:51 luke-jr: why should the amount of flashe writes keept low? May 04 04:53:04 radic: because flash has a limited amount of writes before it dies May 04 04:53:45 this is why I use internal flash as a rescue livecd :D May 04 04:53:56 and put my real OS on a removable/replacable card May 04 04:54:02 everything has limited amout of writes before it dies May 04 04:54:08 slonopotamus: look at about:config May 04 04:54:48 radic, and? May 04 04:55:24 slonopotamus: there you can enable the cach May 04 04:55:26 you want to tell me about browser.cache.disk.enable ? May 04 04:55:34 +e May 04 04:55:42 slonopotamus: right May 04 04:56:30 radic, well... set it to true and tell me what changed May 04 04:57:02 I think a symlink to a cache-dir on my sd-card is a good idea May 04 04:57:36 slonopotamus: the pages are loaded faster May 04 04:57:57 radic, okay, and where are they stored? May 04 04:58:26 i think on the internal flashe May 04 04:59:20 do not guess, check it :) May 04 05:02:10 correct answer is: microb doesn't store pages in disk cache at all :) May 04 05:03:26 its cached on the server on the other side of the internet :) May 04 05:07:02 there is a big boss on the other side of the internet May 04 05:07:07 you need to beat him to get out May 04 05:07:47 i c May 04 05:21:14 what does the full screen button corresponds to in a keyboard? F11? May 04 05:21:52 f6 May 04 05:23:13 any reason behind it? (just curious) May 04 05:23:52 * Stskeeps yawns May 04 05:24:19 LiraNuna: probably easy implementation May 04 06:16:46 how can I get 24h clock in N810W? May 04 06:17:10 liranuna: give me a sec, let me check May 04 06:18:00 LiraNuna: dont believe you can, just double checking May 04 06:18:18 zakkm, are you serious? May 04 06:18:54 is there a reason you would need? May 04 06:19:15 I dislike the AM/PM system? May 04 06:19:25 im no expert, but as far as i know you cant, and im looknig through now trying to find 24h May 04 06:19:59 I dislike the 24 hour system May 04 06:20:11 give me 16 hex-hour days -.- May 04 06:20:30 https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=303 says fix May 04 06:21:34 Quoting the UI designer: "In Fremantle there will be a GCONF value for the time May 04 06:21:34 display setting that apps can read." May 04 06:21:50 LiraNuna: that means the next version of maemo, in like summertime will support 24h May 04 06:23:31 next version of maemo won't run on N8x0 though May 04 06:25:22 LiraNuna, time to look at other distros for your tablet :) May 04 06:25:23 exactly, so its up to mer, but according to that, right now there is no way to have 12h. May 04 06:25:29 ahh 24h May 04 06:25:39 even though it says fix, it doesnt necessary mean fixed May 04 06:26:02 slonopotamus, I know, mer doesn't look too good atm (I know it's alpha) May 04 06:26:03 slonopotamus: how goes gentoo? May 04 06:26:32 LiraNuna: its not so much that mer doesnt look too good, its the window manager/UI i would say May 04 06:26:43 Doesn't that bug say that you can change the locale (or rebuild posix-locales) too? May 04 06:26:49 I'm not a fan of hildon at all, tbh May 04 06:27:15 qwerty12_N800: i must of missed that, but even if you did, locale doesnt control 24h/12h does it? May 04 06:27:24 N810 has so much potential, and most of the HW is closed source.. May 04 06:27:36 qwerty12_N800: that would also mean that the clock applet and stuff would have to show in 24h too May 04 06:27:47 qwerty12_N800: locale might only make "date" show 24h May 04 06:27:53 zakkm: it does. LC_Time var. and all May 04 06:28:18 qwerty12_N800: let me read it again, seems alot of people commented May 04 06:28:21 zakkm, perfect :) i got on-screen keyboard :) May 04 06:28:30 large statusbar clock has an option for 12hr mode, independent of locale May 04 06:28:35 slonopotamus: how nice? :D May 04 06:28:40 qwerty12_N800: is for os2008 a replacement for the volumecontrole available? May 04 06:28:59 whats wrong with volume control? May 04 06:29:00 zakkm, a little quirky, but definitely usable May 04 06:29:05 radic: advanced-backlight? May 04 06:29:08 is the tablet running alsa? May 04 06:29:12 or oss? May 04 06:29:19 alsa May 04 06:29:24 forget oss May 04 06:29:28 it's history :) May 04 06:29:29 there could be alsamixer then , if you want more volume controls May 04 06:29:41 like more specifics May 04 06:30:07 havent used my tablet in like days before like 10min ago ;p May 04 06:30:15 slonopotamus: what WM/DE you got setup? May 04 06:30:17 qwerty12_N800: with that i couldn't control the recording volume May 04 06:30:32 radic: you see if alsamixer is on the tablet? May 04 06:30:35 run from terminal May 04 06:30:37 zakkm, gnome for me, luke-jr installed kde-4.2 on his n810 May 04 06:30:46 do you think Nokia will deliver OpenGL ES drivers for N8x0 ? May 04 06:30:51 never :P May 04 06:30:56 as in, with Maemo 5.0 ? May 04 06:31:11 maemo 5 is different hardware May 04 06:31:17 that will have opengl drivers May 04 06:31:28 but the n8x0 / nonmaemo 5 . .wont i think May 04 06:31:29 no schedule released, eh? May 04 06:31:36 summer i think? May 04 06:31:39 around May 04 06:31:41 why did Nokia never do GL drivers for the 810 anyway? May 04 06:31:55 LiraNuna: quim's talking to TI this month about mbx drivers May 04 06:31:55 locutus, "licensing issues" as far as I read May 04 06:32:05 LiraNuna: meh May 04 06:32:07 slonopotamus: did gnome run okay, do you think kde4 did? that would seem so slow May 04 06:32:08 Stskeeps, "talking" in what way? May 04 06:32:11 can we make "donations" May 04 06:32:22 there was a forum post on that May 04 06:32:31 whats it going to take to get opengl drivers May 04 06:32:40 zakkm, gnome speed is comparable to hildon. a little bit slower, but i didn't perform any optimizations yet. May 04 06:32:41 bribe May 04 06:32:48 LiraNuna: as in they're still trying to get drivers for n8x0 May 04 06:32:53 * slonopotamus needs to record some videos May 04 06:33:13 slonopotamus: seems weird on a tablet though, too small and such May 04 06:33:15 Stskeeps, can we donate? (read as bribe) May 04 06:33:25 Stskeeps, that would be great May 04 06:33:35 Stskeeps: wouldnt that give a huge speed boost in a way, bring for way more things ? May 04 06:33:44 zakkm: KDE 4 isn't running ok May 04 06:33:45 zakkm, better than all that 'hildonization' crap May 04 06:33:46 I've seen the opengl perf on the n810 and it's actually pretty cool May 04 06:33:55 only thing is tearing which won't disappear May 04 06:34:03 i want to run fvwm-crystal on tablet i think :D May 04 06:34:17 iPhone uses the same chipset May 04 06:34:23 zakkm, we'll see May 04 06:34:26 it got a PowerVR MBX (lite) May 04 06:34:46 LiraNuna, http://internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28548&highlight=acceleration May 04 06:34:47 the iphone version 1.1.3 has AppleMBX.kext but that got removed on 2.0 May 04 06:34:50 theorically speaking though May 04 06:34:53 zakkm, i don't have manpower to hildonize each & every app i want to use May 04 06:35:19 X running off 3d support drivers , rather than what i guess is very software rendered May 04 06:35:34 there's also 2D accel, no? May 04 06:35:35 slonopotamus, we are working on autohildonization too though May 04 06:35:54 yeah i was about to say May 04 06:36:05 4 years of maemo? and no autohildonizations by now?

The memory consumption is increased by 3.3% which is a small trade-off for this performance improvement. May 04 06:55:44 FAIL May 04 06:55:52 memory is FAR more important IMOP May 04 06:55:54 IMO* May 04 06:55:55 disk usage isn't a problem. May 04 06:55:57 luke-jr: of what? May 04 06:56:21 slonopotamus: it has mpd/xmms builtin, uses rox-filer for file browser May 04 06:57:02 morning May 04 06:57:23 zakkm: WebKit ARM JIT May 04 06:57:29 ;p May 04 06:58:40 luke-jr, memory increased by 3%, this isn't a lot May 04 06:58:55 assuming this is for code execution buffers May 04 06:59:43 LiraNuna: the N810 is already very short on memory May 04 06:59:48 LiraNuna: I'm seriously considering getting compcache (memory compression) on it May 04 06:59:59 how short? May 04 07:00:09 deblet with gnome used 77MB May 04 07:00:21 Gentoo with KDE 4.2 is pushing it May 04 07:00:31 if I run Marble, I'm pretty sure I go over May 04 07:00:43 wow not bad May 04 07:00:45 77mb? May 04 07:00:55 zakkm, that's what it reported May 04 07:01:04 luke-jr: compcache has been done and the tablet likes to restart with it runnning May 04 07:01:09 s/runnning/running/ May 04 07:01:10 qwerty12 meant: luke-jr: compcache has been done and the tablet likes to restart with it running May 04 07:01:17 compcache crashes it. May 04 07:01:21 qwerty12: oh, interesting May 04 07:01:38 that was a special gnome with 'stripped down' environment May 04 07:01:39 qwerty12: was that just maemo though, or was it tried in mer? May 04 07:01:42 I suspect latest kernel+compcache may help May 04 07:01:53 zakkm: doesn't matter, it's a kernel problem May 04 07:01:55 but had totem, nm-applet, file-roller, gedit, evince... May 04 07:02:24 I had to optimize the panels, since some of the applets such as trash-applet take 4.4MB for nothing May 04 07:02:34 so I just replaced it with a launcher to trash:// :D May 04 07:02:34 XD May 04 07:02:48 which now took a good 4k memory :) May 04 07:03:12 so, uh May 04 07:03:17 did you see one of those SmartQ 5 MIDs?

May 04 07:20:37 if you use softfp, have -ffast-math as well May 04 07:22:55 LiraNuna: softfp is an ABI, not actual software ;) May 04 07:24:29 sorry, I'm used to lower-level ARM development May 04 07:26:16 like manipulating the ARM's MPU for dynarec emulation of lower level ARMs May 04 07:26:18 funtimes May 04 07:33:30 Hello maemo May 04 07:37:35 qwerty12, -mfloat-abi=softfp doesn't have any visible effect May 04 07:38:37 qwerty12, march can, but will it change anything actually?

May 04 07:59:02 no May 04 07:59:09 not that i know of? May 04 07:59:11 is it? May 04 07:59:48 what's the repo link?

May 04 08:06:02 LiraNuna: it offers me no such thing :-( May 04 08:06:12 Meiz_n810: goatse is jokes May 04 08:07:42 Meiz_n810: I won't click on anything with 'goatse' in the link. Scary. May 04 08:07:51 morning jeremiah_ :) May 04 08:08:51 Stskeeps: Hello Sir Stskeeps! May 04 08:09:00 How is life in beautiful Denmark? May 04 08:09:33 jeremiah_: i received http://kamleung.com/goodies/q5/index.html , one of these boxes today :) May 04 08:09:55 Hot form the oven?! :) May 04 08:10:11 from i think they meant :) May 04 08:10:43 Stskeeps: Does it run Mer? May 04 08:10:52 jeremiah_: it will.. :) May 04 08:10:55 heh May 04 08:11:05 it's basically a slightly faster n800 May 04 08:11:11 Keep on rockin' Stskeeps! May 04 08:11:39 and the company is donating two of those to the project and 10 developer rebates, they already run ubuntu so May 04 08:12:02 Hmmm - Are all the developer rebates spoken for? =) May 04 08:12:16 not yet, there's no formal process set up May 04 08:12:34 Are they really the size of a business card? May 04 08:12:39 That is tiny. May 04 08:12:41 nah, bigger May 04 08:12:48 even the full price doesn't seem too bad May 04 08:13:26 i would get a nokia for the quality obviously May 04 08:13:36 but if i need some random tablet around the house, i'd go for a cheap one May 04 08:13:39 Stskeeps: Of course. And for the community. :P May 04 08:14:21 and for people liking to experiment it has a capacitive screen May 04 08:14:41 and runs ubuntu already May 04 08:15:11 Stskeeps: Interesting that they chose Ubuntu, I wonder why. May 04 08:15:23 jeremiah_: no need for a sw department? May 04 08:15:32 Stskeeps: And what are the practical benefits of a capacative screen? May 04 08:15:38 jeremiah_: multitouch for instance afai May 04 08:15:44 Stskeeps: I mean Ubuntu versus debian. May 04 08:15:47 ah May 04 08:15:53 more user friendly? :P May 04 08:16:01 but yeah, good question May 04 08:16:03 Yeah, maybe that is what they thought. May 04 08:16:16 Maybe they think Ubuntu is more popular. May 04 08:17:04 or better chinese support May 04 08:17:13 Stskeeps: It would be really interesting to find out - if you ever speak to them, ask them why Ubuntu and not Debian. Though I am sure that might not be the first thing on your list. :) May 04 08:17:21 Stskeeps, how big are they? May 04 08:17:25 Stskeeps: Debian is known for its excellent internationalization. May 04 08:17:46 In fact, debian is available in Mongolian and other languages. May 04 08:17:59 LiraNuna: http://www.slashgear.com/smartq-5-mid-specs-photos-emerge-just-132-2639014/ May 04 08:18:09 So I doubt they chose Ubuntu over Debian because of Chinese language support, but maybe. May 04 08:19:16 Stskeeps: Does it do any type of telephony? May 04 08:19:22 jeremiah_: not a phone, it's a tablet May 04 08:19:34 it's not a competitor for rx-51 for sure May 04 08:19:37 Stskeeps: And does it have proprietary blobs? May 04 08:19:54 jeremiah_: only video codecs as far as i can tell, and libertas wifi firmware May 04 08:20:05 Stskeeps: Wow - pretty open. May 04 08:20:06 but nothing that is required to use it May 04 08:20:10 cool. May 04 08:20:20 jeremiah_: they'll publish HW design and source code soon they said May 04 08:20:25 Really!? May 04 08:20:28 Amazing. May 04 08:20:49 Stskeeps: That will generate some interest if they follow through. May 04 08:20:58 they just might May 04 08:21:25 btw, he commented something i didn't hear of before: I have just noticed companies like Marvell choose maemo as May 04 08:21:28 their MID/Netbook reference design. May 04 08:21:33 is this anything heard about? May 04 08:21:37 how different is this one from the N800? May 04 08:21:52 LiraNuna: no dpad, no buttons than the ones above, bigger battery May 04 08:21:56 more internal flash May 04 08:21:58 SD slot May 04 08:22:14 capacitive screen May 04 08:22:45 what about chipsets? May 04 08:22:56 samsung armv5 it seems May 04 08:22:58 sec May 04 08:23:18 Stskeeps: Do you mean have I heard anything about companies using Maemo as their reference design? No - they keep me in the dark. :) May 04 08:23:27 jeremiah_: ah, if anyone heard May 04 08:23:38 i haven't been able to find anything about it, so it might be an internal chinese thing :) May 04 08:24:20 LiraNuna: http://www.slashgear.com/smartq-5-mid-gets-reviewed-let-down-by-poor-cpu-0640122/ has video May 04 08:25:21 "but there’s no Flash or YouTube support" we can fix it right? :) May 04 08:25:37 now that's a rather murky area and i don't want to give an answer to that :P May 04 08:25:42 gnash should work? :P May 04 08:25:46 LiraNuna: That will be a PITA. May 04 08:26:19 how's Nxx0 flash player different? May 04 08:26:25 it's a browser plugin, right? May 04 08:26:34 yeah, and tied to maemo sortof :P May 04 08:26:44 also, we can't legally copy that :> May 04 08:26:46 LiraNuna: Well, you are starting off with a different CPU. May 04 08:27:16 jeremiah_, it's still ARM, we can patch the binary ;P May 04 08:27:34 I know it's 'illegal' but are they REALLY gonna chase us? May 04 08:27:51 LiraNuna: I doubt they well chase you, they might even like it. :) May 04 08:28:04 LiraNuna: adobe would probably. May 04 08:28:05 LiraNuna: But how much official support will you get? May 04 08:28:32 I mean, you can hack your machine all you want, but you won't be able to distribute. May 04 08:28:36 So what's the point? May 04 08:28:38 how much official support does the N series get? none May 04 08:28:55 LiraNuna: Nokia supports the maemo community in a huge way. May 04 08:29:05 They get it. May 04 08:29:17 Sure you may feel it could be more open May 04 08:29:33 but they are bound by agreements that already exist in the marketplace May 04 08:29:38 That they cannot change May 04 08:29:41 I'm new, so I don't really know May 04 08:29:48 LiraNuna: :) May 04 08:29:56 LiraNuna: No biggie - you raise important issues. May 04 08:30:22 LiraNuna: And I apologize if I sound critical, I don't mean to. May 04 08:30:30 LiraNuna: but they have stated that there will be no more 'official' releases of anything for the N8x0s May 04 08:30:48 (you only got a tablet a few days ago didn't you?) May 04 08:30:58 so, that means flash support is deprecated May 04 08:31:06 lbt: But you don't really expect to spend all that money supporting an EOL product do you? May 04 08:31:12 No other company does that. May 04 08:31:14 meaning we can do stuff with it and they shouldn't really move anything May 04 08:31:31 lbt, last week May 04 08:31:39 jeremiah_ they still sell them ... I expect them to support products they sell May 04 08:31:51 lbt: You have a point. May 04 08:31:57 and I expect them to be supported for a year after they stop selling them May 04 08:32:16 look at LiraNuna ... tablet less than a week old and it's "EOL"... tough May 04 08:32:26 lbt: Yeah. Not good. May 04 08:32:32 so, tbh, it could be better May 04 08:33:09 I have an old Nokia phone, the new sync SW still supports it May 04 08:33:10 lbt, I know the WiMAX edition is EOL May 04 08:33:41 someone here said before that 2.6.30 kernel is possible May 04 08:34:02 LiraNuna: nevertheless... it's brand new and I think you're entitled to expect that bug fixes will be at least looked at for a reasonable duration May 04 08:34:26 lbt, of course, but I don't really think Adobe will bother May 04 08:34:26 however a bug report against an N8x0 is met with "WONTFIX" ... eol May 04 08:34:36 heh May 04 08:34:56 so my N800 has the internet phone app May 04 08:35:05 it makes a great SIP handset May 04 08:35:21 but there is no DTMF May 04 08:35:27 not worth filing a bug :( May 04 08:35:42 anyhow, it is what it is May 04 08:35:59 and whilst I think it's a poor show May 04 08:36:13 Nokia are doing other things which are a lot better :) May 04 08:36:32 there is support for Mer in many areas May 04 08:37:06 but it looks like you'll never get to use the internal gps in Mer May 04 08:37:08 lbt: I think using Mer for backwards compatibility is a great idea May 04 08:37:22 lbt: I puts the control in the hands of the community. May 04 08:37:34 is the GPS chipset closed-source too? May 04 08:37:35 well... it also offloads legacy responsibility May 04 08:37:50 GPS-> https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4380 May 04 08:38:13 lbt: Yes - but that is part of the deal and a realistic expectation. May 04 08:38:30 so Nokia can EOL even sooner and say it's supported via Mer... apart from..... May 04 08:38:45 You may argue that it is happening too soon or without enough Nokia support, and you may be right, but it is, in principle, a good thing. May 04 08:38:48 bleh May 04 08:38:56 At least, so thinks I. May 04 08:39:03 what? Mer? May 04 08:39:08 good thing I got this thing for free May 04 08:39:16 that way I can get my wife to get another one :D May 04 08:39:54 what? Mer? <- jeremiah_ May 04 08:40:12 LiraNuna: When the new one comes out, you will want to give your wife the old one. :) May 04 08:40:16 lbt: Yeah. May 04 08:40:18 some might argue that cutting off life support is a good way to get the community encouraged May 04 08:40:28 jeremiah_, I meant, get my wife to agree to get the new one May 04 08:40:31 rage is a good motivator sometime :) May 04 08:40:37 LiraNuna: Heh. May 04 08:40:46 hehe ... but futile rage .... ? May 04 08:40:51 Stskeeps: You have a way with words. :) May 04 08:40:57 * lbt has an N800 and a BT gps May 04 08:41:09 the shop that sold the N810W to me delivered the product after 34 days (!) and I already claimed fraud May 04 08:41:11 lbt: oh, it's not futile if there's someone ready to facilitate the rage :P May 04 08:41:25 * lbt hopes maemo-mapper can ignore the liblocate stuff and use gpsd May 04 08:42:25 Stskeeps: some things we can't reasonably expect to fix ... 3D accel, n810 gps... May 04 08:42:34 I doubt Mer will ever support them May 04 08:42:50 but we'll see if Nokia continue to open up the HW May 04 08:42:58 it's a journey for them May 04 08:43:13 hmm, Tear doesn't seem to pass acid3 test May 04 08:43:22 I get 13/100 May 04 08:44:27 lbt: obviously, but you didn't see qgil coming in to talk about it? (he's taking a talk with TI about it this month), and http://internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?p=283003&highlight=acceleration#post283003 May 04 08:44:31 (3d) May 04 08:44:34 gps we'll have to figure out somehow May 04 08:45:04 oh yes May 04 08:45:31 I meant *we* as in not-Nokia May 04 08:46:52 so we can rage all we like .... but it's not enough.... whereas being pissed off at the lack of fingerscrolling in Qt.... I can do something about that May 04 08:47:22 I'd *really* like to get that into Qt May 04 08:47:31 to demonstrate community feedback May 04 08:47:50 something small, but very 'pointable at' May 04 08:51:29 *nod* May 04 08:51:39 fingerscrolling, pannable area? May 04 08:51:49 yes... May 04 08:51:56 * lbt hates the word kinetic May 04 08:52:02 hehe May 04 08:52:17 * lbt thinks that implies momentum and continued motion/slowing down May 04 09:06:22 LiraNuna: you understand that Flash Player for 770/n800/n810 is licensed by Nokia from Adobe, right? May 04 09:06:34 it's based on the real flash player sources May 04 09:06:41 timeless_mbp, oh wow May 04 09:06:46 so we can't get a newer version?

May 04 11:40:08 ah btw May 04 11:40:15 the blueman .desktop file is broken May 04 11:40:25 liri: correct, 20% answered it was day to day usable May 04 11:40:28 and Mer's "tray" is limited to 4 items May 04 11:40:30 but we have a lot of things working still May 04 11:40:46 need a way to resize it and a button to "show more items" like in Maemo May 04 11:40:46 AStorm: make a huge .txt with the bugs and i'll gladly add them administratively :P May 04 11:40:50 and yes May 04 11:40:52 yeah May 04 11:41:08 it's cool though May 04 11:41:19 liri: but we have wifi power saving working, etc May 04 11:41:22 so we're getting closer May 04 11:41:35 this way you get a full blown linux distro with the comfortable mobile UI May 04 11:41:39 and your pidgin version is not hildonized May 04 11:41:47 AStorm: we have a pidgin version? May 04 11:41:49 add the one from Maemo repos, which is May 04 11:41:51 :) May 04 11:41:54 must be the ubuntu one May 04 11:41:56 heh May 04 11:41:59 no, you don't. exactly May 04 11:42:08 liri: also we target towards making normal apps act well in maemo ui too :P May 04 11:42:31 that's a blessing May 04 11:42:32 I also recommend switching off static dialogs in matchbox for now May 04 11:42:44 (switch to free) May 04 11:42:50 though I'd be sticking with maemo os until that happens, and who knows when is that :) May 04 11:42:57 liri: *nod* May 04 11:42:58 and disable super_modal May 04 11:43:21 to be honest I thought alot about flash games in the tablet but I found out that they run insanely slow which is in contrary to what I thought at first May 04 11:43:32 it's a workaround though - to work with that, need to extend the "task buttons" to show all the dialogs too May 04 11:43:35 I figured that this happens because the cpu still can't handle all that math May 04 11:44:19 AStorm: i agree with all your observations, but i need them in list form :) May 04 11:44:20 liri, the Flash plugin is really badly put together. May 04 11:44:30 AStorm: Want a riddle? May 04 11:44:36 Stskeeps, later today - have to jump on labs May 04 11:44:39 GAN800: you mean the flash plugin for the browser? May 04 11:44:40 or rather, run May 04 11:44:43 LiraNuna, I have 24hour clock... maybe because I set country to Finland? May 04 11:44:45 liri, yes. May 04 11:44:47 bbl May 04 11:44:51 GAN800: ahh May 04 11:45:08 liri, Flash on the Linux is terrible, Flash on Linux ARM is worse. May 04 11:45:17 GAN800: well there's no other alternative. I tried playing the flash file in the media player (that default one) which it plays it but it's even worse than on the browser May 04 11:45:27 GAN800: heh, nice May 04 11:45:29 * RST38h knows why Flash is slow on the tablets. It is NOT because of the math too May 04 11:45:42 The reason is way funnier May 04 11:46:00 oh? May 04 11:46:06 how come then RST38h? May 04 11:46:16 It performs busy loops on gettimeofday(). May 04 11:46:34 eh May 04 11:46:41 The way to improve it is patch gettimeofday() to provide it with a "local" copy of the time May 04 11:47:03 There is a patch available too, made for different purposes on RedHat. May 04 11:47:09 hmm May 04 11:47:13 RST38h: maybe that can be LD_PRELOADed May 04 11:47:19 Yea, exactly May 04 11:47:33 I will try locating the patch if one of you agrees to try it on NIT May 04 11:47:47 RST38h: I'll do it happily May 04 11:48:06 Ok, let me see if I can locate it May 04 11:49:57 Here is an x86 specific patch: http://lwn.net/Articles/9266/ May 04 11:50:11 It uses TSC unfortunately, so will need modifications May 04 11:50:58 lol May 04 11:51:08 RST38h: gladly taking kernel patch for Mer kernels :P May 04 11:51:12 (works for maemo too) May 04 11:51:26 * RST38h would rather have this stuff in maemo though =( May 04 11:51:47 yeah, our kernels work for maemo too :P RDNIS patch is -wonderful- May 04 11:51:51 But let me see if there is an arch-agnostic patch available May 04 11:52:33 rst the patch is for 2.4 kernels May 04 11:53:03 my maemo kernel is running version 4.8 May 04 11:53:17 * liri flew 2 decades to the future to get it! May 04 11:53:21 woglinde: as it uses TSC you will have to rewrite it anyway, so it does nto matter May 04 11:55:25 no wonder I can' get on at work I'm on at home lol May 04 11:55:38 hehe May 04 11:57:13 If I want to file a feature request to make avatars bigger again on talk.mameo.org do I just file it like a bug? May 04 11:57:23 yeah, think so May 04 11:57:46 * RST38h files a bug to remove the avatars May 04 11:57:58 rst *g* May 04 11:59:33 * AFB|Work files a bug to delete RST38h's bug May 04 11:59:57 andre__: Can you confirm https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4439 ? I am very suprised so I still wonder if it's just me. May 04 12:00:25 murrayc, Lucas already confirmed it May 04 12:01:02 andre__: Yeah, but I still wonder. May 04 12:01:11 FOUND IT May 04 12:01:18 liri,Stskeeps,woglinde: https://www.redhatrenewals.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_MRG/1.0/html/Realtime_Tuning_Guide/sect-Realtime_Tuning_Guide-General_System_Tuning-gettimeofday_speedup.html May 04 12:01:44 i.e. RedHat has it in the kernel May 04 12:01:46 from past experiences i trust lucas May 04 12:01:59 ok May 04 12:02:25 rst so its only a echo? May 04 12:03:34 an echo May 04 12:03:38 woglinde: it is an echo if you have a RedHat Linux Enterprise Edition May 04 12:03:41 AFB|Work, under Newstyle, please May 04 12:03:46 * lbt is breaking in a new coffee cup May 04 12:03:49 woglinde: otherwise it is fsck fsck fsck fsck May 04 12:03:53 RST38h, you do realize that's a setting, right? May 04 12:04:17 General: It is a setting that enables this feature in the RedHat Linux kernel / glibc May 04 12:04:29 RST38h, avatars on itT. . . . . . . May 04 12:04:45 General: For Maemo, someone will have to go into the kernel code and port the changes May 04 12:04:50 General: Ah, that... May 04 12:05:19 General: I have pretty much abandoned any hopes that you guys will change ITT layout May 04 12:05:40 RST38h, good for you. May 04 12:05:44 General: Or implement a choice of color schemes for those who really need it (I do not) May 04 12:06:30 General: My current plan is to personally petition Reggie into readding the mobile scheme again and use that May 04 12:07:51 General: Whatever visual silliness you wreak on that poor forum site, I no longer care May 04 12:08:06 hm, are they selling that smartq5 thing to europe/us anywhere? May 04 12:08:13 Woo then we're agreed! May 04 12:08:36 General: Mmm...I, would not go THAT far with conclusions :) May 04 12:09:04 I don't care, you don't care. May 04 12:09:06 Sure sounds like it. May 04 12:09:42 General: Basically, my current take is that the current Maemo.org design has been discussed among a really small group of people who are currently closed to taking any external suggestions seriously May 04 12:11:05 General: I do think it is bad, but there does not seem to be a way to convey this to the above group. May 04 12:13:39 rst where did you find the gettimeofday is the sucker? May 04 12:13:40 RST38h, though, there's been countless open meetings and ml discussions May 04 12:14:34 GeneralAntilles: opps I filed it under TALK May 04 12:20:14 Sts: Yea, but the same people were present May 04 12:20:32 Sts: I tried participating a few times, but it did not look like anybody listened May 04 12:21:22 woglinde: use strace on MicroB May 04 12:21:22 rst there is no vdso support for arm May 04 12:21:28 at all May 04 12:21:37 and the vdso stuff is in for all kernels May 04 12:21:39 wogline: open a page with a few youtube videos and watch strace go bonkers =) May 04 12:21:56 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.29.y.git;a=blob;f=arch/x86/vdso/vclock_gettime.c;h=d9d35824c56f30e56266445cdf9ed5877f94bf52;hb=HEAD May 04 12:22:08 woglinde: Well, as I said before, it is not simple patch application, some real work has to be done May 04 12:22:26 oh dear god May 04 12:22:46 star trek + nokia commercials in .dk May 04 12:22:59 Sts: Ok, who has got the Nokia handset? =) May 04 12:23:05 i wonder when lcars tablet shows up May 04 12:23:54 RST38h, in a bus atm so saw it briefly May 04 12:24:38 * RST38h wonders what would happen if the new StarTrek movie had all the crew members use N97 instead of traditional tricorders May 04 12:24:56 they wouldn't get a signal May 04 12:25:04 Kirk would die May 04 12:25:06 hehe May 04 12:25:07 j j abrams gone insane? May 04 12:25:07 bad idea May 04 12:25:11 Kirk can't die. May 04 12:25:49 He is like Achilles, there is just one combination of events that makes him die May 04 12:26:20 DCMA ? May 04 12:26:30 takedown Kirk!!! May 04 12:26:48 ulitmate weapon? May 04 12:28:00 Only if that combination of events gets 0 probability =) May 04 12:28:41 What do you guys think would be better for minimalist theme a row or two of links that at top of everypage, or a drop down box full of links that will take up almost as much space? May 04 12:29:54 AFB: One thin menu at the top May 04 12:30:08 AFB: Windows style. May 04 12:30:27 i.e. not the menu but a menu bar, sorry May 04 12:30:37 you saying a set of drop down boxes across the top May 04 12:30:44 no May 04 12:30:52 I am saying a menu bar, no drop down boxes May 04 12:31:15 Drop down boxes = javascript = bad bad bad on an S60 phone May 04 12:36:28 yeah I was trying to get away from the drop down box May 04 12:36:43 I'll just stick with the menus thing I'm working on now May 04 12:37:14 menus take vertical space and S60 phones have got 320x240 screens May 04 12:37:48 (and there is no mobile theme any more, so your minimalistic one is all we have got) May 04 12:42:19 woglinde: btw, the alternative way would be exposing kernel time via mmap() May 04 12:43:17 woglinde: i.e. you open and mmap some device (/dev/rtc ?) and make gettimeofday() read directly from mmap()ped page May 04 12:43:43 rst yes May 04 12:47:27 opera mini is also a bit cumbersome with drop down boxes :) May 04 12:50:35 Hi! I'm with Mozilla, working on Fennec (Firefox mobile) and I've hit something in the sapwood theme engine that's slowing down our startup... is any theme-expert online ? May 04 12:57:35 fred23: sorry not me May 04 12:57:46 lbt: np May 04 12:57:49 OTOH... May 04 12:57:51 fred23: have you filed a bug w/ the private bug tracker? May 04 12:58:01 do you know where the maemo source for fennec lives? May 04 12:58:13 lbl: they're in hg May 04 12:58:28 the instructions are on wiki.mozilla.org iirc if you really want to pull and build May 04 12:58:37 .dsc ? May 04 12:58:41 no. May 04 12:58:48 :( May 04 12:58:54 we aren't talking about packages, we're talking about live projects :) May 04 12:58:55 timeless_mbp : it's not a bug per se... I wanted to talk to someone closer to the code to discuss some improvements I had in mind... May 04 12:59:15 yeah - agile.... package as you go May 04 12:59:24 agile: don't package at all May 04 12:59:30 just build continuously May 04 12:59:38 * lbt thinks you're thinking of Gentoo May 04 12:59:38 fred23: if you're associated w/ mozilla, you should have access to the private bug database May 04 12:59:56 fred23: and you should be using it May 04 13:00:17 file a bug and stick something in it, have someone cc me, i'll connect the bug to an engineer if i can May 04 13:00:18 it's a shame ... if there was a .dsc I could have it building on OBS For Mer in a few minutes May 04 13:00:31 lbt: and how would that help anyone? May 04 13:00:56 Oh, like there are never inter-OS issues or packaging problems May 04 13:01:03 yeah, but I don't like filing bugs before knowing a minimum and talking with the concerned guys... that might be an irrelevant issue. May 04 13:01:23 fred23: i can't talk about this in the open, this channel is logged May 04 13:01:39 np May 04 13:01:44 if you don't have a way of reaching the people you need directly, then use the bug database May 04 13:01:51 I'll do May 04 13:01:53 don't worry about bug count or quality, we have many and none May 04 13:02:06 think about it more as a logged secure email May 04 13:02:19 with safe ways to cc people into a conversation later w/o them losing context May 04 13:03:04 timeless_mbp: cool. thanx May 04 13:03:42 so timeless_mbp, there's really nothing done on packaging it? May 04 13:04:30 lbt: there are .deb's and things May 04 13:04:37 OK... May 04 13:04:38 but it's totally irrelevant to our needs as developers May 04 13:04:46 and you're asking a pair of mozilla devs May 04 13:04:53 which is ... May 04 13:04:59 * timeless_mbp goes off searching for analogies May 04 13:05:29 * thux .fi spam coming sorry, perustettiin Meizirkkin kanssa suomi kanava #nettilaudat tervetuloa local channel for tablets May 04 13:05:33 like asking a pair of field workers about the recipe for soup May 04 13:05:37 yeah, I know... May 04 13:06:11 thanks for the help though May 04 13:07:50 seriously though, there are debs in the repository for mozilla May 04 13:09:50 OK, I'm after a .dsc and a tar.gz to run on the Mer autobuilder (getting ready for the Danish weekend) May 04 13:10:07 repository for mozilla? May 04 13:10:19 * lbt is googling May 04 13:11:18 there's some version of fennec in extras-devel atleast May 04 13:11:40 lbt get fennec sources from ubuntu-repo May 04 13:11:46 ubuntu has it May 04 13:11:47 That version was put there by X-Fade, it wasn't built with the autobuilder so it may not have source May 04 13:13:34 ta - submitted to OBS May 04 13:20:57 fred23: Sapwood sources are available AFAIK (at least I remember finding a bug there) May 04 13:21:15 fred23: So you can easily find what is causing problems May 04 13:21:55 RST38h: what do you mean ?... I've got the sources and I've pinpointed the exact problem. I just wanted to discuss something with the theme guys before submitting hack ideas... May 04 13:22:04 fred23: Ah May 04 13:22:08 thanx anyways ;-) May 04 13:22:20 fred23: Submit a bug. It won't be fixed in the current OS2008. May 04 13:22:37 RST38h: you got it. May 04 13:23:00 fred23: It *may* be fixed in the upcoming OS on the upcoming device, if it still uses the same Sapwood and there is someone in Nokia who shows interest in your bug report. May 04 13:23:38 RST38h: ok, so no big expectations to have here, if I understand correctly.. May 04 13:26:47 hi May 04 13:53:05 fred23: Well, there are at least two things you can do, aside from filing the bug (which is also useful, whatever I said) May 04 13:53:22 fred23: One is submit your patch to Stskeeps here who will introduce it into MeR May 04 13:53:47 fred23: Another is to publish the patch and/or the .deb with the patched sapwood on ITT May 04 13:54:11 fred23: This will at least let people who are interested in a fix apply it to their current tablets May 04 13:54:31 RST38h: option three is simply to talk to herzi :) May 04 13:54:48 Stskeeps: no official updates to Diablo any more =( May 04 13:55:00 RST38h: sure, but that doesn't mean sapwood doesn't work for diablo :P May 04 13:55:03 and yes, file a bug May 04 13:55:06 Stskeeps: yeah, I tried to get to herzi, but I'm afraid here's rarely online. May 04 13:55:12 file a bug then May 04 13:55:31 Stskeeps: bug filed... np May 04 13:55:39 let's wait then... May 04 13:56:04 thank you all for this prompt support! May 04 13:56:12 sorry that we can't do more here May 04 14:00:17 Hmm...N97 supposedly does not have OMAP3 May 04 14:01:33 yeah May 04 14:01:43 32GB internal flash though, oh yeah May 04 14:03:01 Stskeeps can't fred23 also provide a patch for Mer? May 04 14:03:06 lbt: same code May 04 14:03:13 reminds me, do sdhc cards beyong 16GB work on n810? May 04 14:03:37 yes, except we have the ability to accept and try a patch 'easily' May 04 14:03:46 in Devel:MC ? May 04 14:03:55 sure, but we can get that from the bug report :) May 04 14:03:58 nb xulrunner is building May 04 14:04:15 old Jaunty version May 04 14:04:21 k May 04 14:05:02 $700 for the N97 May 04 14:05:10 They've got to be kidding for an ARM11. May 04 14:05:23 RST38h, 400MHz and change. May 04 14:05:46 but it allows an easy setup of the osc armel chroot with all the builddeps May 04 14:05:47 jaska, cards up to 2TB will work fine. May 04 14:05:52 * RST38h has no problem with ARM11 (why they hide the exact manufacturer though?) but $700 is way too steep May 04 14:05:55 oh May 04 14:06:13 i just recall it officially being 8g max and 16g working May 04 14:06:20 It is just a phone, and not even the business E-series model May 04 14:06:58 jaska, 8GB is what was available to be certified with at the time the N810 was released. May 04 14:07:10 anyhow, fred23, if you want to get your patch tried on Mer, give me a yell May 04 14:07:14 RST38h, I don't have a problem with ARM11, either, but not for $700. May 04 14:07:28 yeah, thats what i gather, googling around, thinking of upping my sd card from 4 to something May 04 14:07:31 Not that there's any big difference between E series and N series? May 04 14:07:32 lbt: I appreciate ! thanx May 04 14:07:42 np May 04 14:08:11 Except N series has crippled/nonexistant VoIP and E-series has cumbersome media player, I guess.. May 04 14:09:50 * Robot101 has always found the build quality and software stability better on E series May 04 14:10:00 ie they don't feel like they're going to fall in 2 every time you open the phone May 04 14:10:06 Wish somebody would give me some input on the repository.maemo.org improvemnts. May 04 14:10:10 and the e-mail app actually works. like, I can read and send email. May 04 14:11:10 * wazd ponders why Reggie killed old iTT theme :( May 04 14:11:30 dunno, email has "just worked" for me ever since I got my first phone with email support May 04 14:11:39 Series 40 :) May 04 14:12:12 wazd, it's not compatible with the new vBulletin May 04 14:12:14 its been variously shit in most of the S60 phones I've had until E-series May 04 14:12:32 GeneralAntilles: ah, damn( May 04 14:13:14 E71x, 5800, or wait for the Maemo phone. . . . May 04 14:13:44 * ShadowJK is pondering E71 vs E75 now :/ May 04 14:14:34 E75 seems extra expensive for little purpose. May 04 14:14:45 $200 just doesn't seem worth it. May 04 14:15:12 oh my memory had them down as similarily priced, or atleast I was assuming they'd be similar once E75 is out in volume May 04 14:15:34 Maybe, it's listed at around $550, now, though, right? May 04 14:15:36 ah right, 100E difference May 04 14:16:02 340 for E71, 425 for E75 with dubious shipping dates all over May 04 14:16:35 * Robot101 has an E66 and is v. happy May 04 14:17:26 I know if I get an E66 I'll be sad if any operator decides to extend HSDPA coverage May 04 14:18:59 hm, E71 is 389E on Nokia's online store and E75 is 499 May 04 14:19:29 E71 is about $320 USD here. May 04 14:19:34 Robot101, oh I was thinking of E63 May 04 14:21:50 hm, E66 does seem to have both 2100 and 900 band 3g and hsdpa, but no qwerty and costs more than E71? wtf? :) May 04 14:24:22 style costs :) May 04 14:26:11 how much would it cost to put modern hardware inside E70 formfactor :( May 04 14:28:02 moo wazd May 04 14:28:26 Shadow: Will probably cost a few human sacrifices to the Tentacled One =) May 04 14:28:49 wazd has no easter eggs May 04 14:28:51 RST38h: human? May 04 14:28:58 RST38h: heya) May 04 14:29:06 I have a cat here that keeps treading on my keyboard May 04 14:29:08 will she do? May 04 14:29:13 lbt: What did you expect? A rabbit? May 04 14:29:17 lbt: No. May 04 14:29:22 aw please May 04 14:29:27 I'll put sauce on her May 04 14:30:51 lbt: The Tentacled One liks brains! May 04 14:31:01 oh, she's smart May 04 14:31:09 and quite pudgy too May 04 14:31:36 I've told her what's coming! May 04 14:31:39 No new E70 for you. May 04 14:32:49 RST38h: kids at Fruct were charmed with ATi :) May 04 14:34:01 wazd: Poor kids, they have nothing to learn programming on nowadays =) May 04 14:34:54 I surrender, I can't use iTT anymore May 04 14:34:59 use minimal theme May 04 14:35:00 :P May 04 14:35:35 Sts: it has also got problems May 04 14:35:43 fewer, yes May 04 14:35:47 Stskeeps: it doesn't show new messages May 04 14:35:57 "New posts" on rightmost May 04 14:35:59 and "Active topics" May 04 14:36:06 * Stskeeps has new posts bookmarked. May 04 14:36:20 Sts: but it wastes so much space... May 04 14:36:28 wazd, what's the problem? May 04 14:36:41 RST38h, I filed a bug about that. May 04 14:37:27 GeneralAntilles: too much noise and no info arrange May 04 14:37:37 wazd, what does that means? May 04 14:37:43 There's less noise, as there are no ads anymore. May 04 14:38:12 There's actually less information overall on the page. May 04 14:38:16 huh. May 04 14:38:24 can it be a capactive screen when my nokia stylus works on it? May 04 14:38:36 it could be dual mode May 04 14:38:36 General: fixing it will require removal of the right column, but it is contrary to the maemo.org style =( May 04 14:38:39 but i doubt it May 04 14:38:53 RST38h, for the topic list? Bull. May 04 14:39:22 General: it's 25% of the total width May 04 14:39:27 Stskeeps, somebody lied? May 04 14:39:39 GeneralAntilles: http://s54.radikal.ru/i145/0905/ae/14e4a8b99df3.png May 04 14:39:50 With no clear use (which is true for most of those columns) May 04 14:39:58 GeneralAntilles: This theme should be called "Kill All Humans" you know May 04 14:40:23 wazd, I'm not sure what you're showing me. May 04 14:41:00 GeneralAntilles: why the hell titles are orange? May 04 14:41:11 * RST38h personally has no problem with the color May 04 14:41:24 GeneralAntilles: why not black? May 04 14:41:32 Because that's what links are colored. May 04 14:41:34 But if everybody wishes, I can submit a bug tracker asking to provide a quick color scheme selection box May 04 14:41:44 Black makes it impossible to tell that it's a link. May 04 14:41:51 Shouldn't be difficult really May 04 14:42:05 General: Should I May 04 14:42:07 ? May 04 14:42:08 GeneralAntilles: okay, what about block at the right May 04 14:42:13 Nobody's really fixated on orange, but no other viable link color have been proposed. May 04 14:42:21 GeneralAntilles: it's black and it's a link May 04 14:42:24 Stskeeps, so it's really "capacitive" and not capacitive then ;-) May 04 14:42:35 I suspect the battery is "2400mAh" and not 2400 mAh too ;-) May 04 14:43:02 GeneralAntilles: BTW there is a huge difference between link in a text and a Title May 04 14:43:25 General: Should I file bug tracker for Talk or for website in general? May 04 14:44:11 Links colors should go under Newstyle. May 04 14:44:22 Understood May 04 14:44:31 GeneralAntilles: Anyway, I will not criticize new style anymore cause it's senseless May 04 14:45:39 wazd, specific improvement suggestions are good. Generic "it sucks" are not. May 04 14:46:24 GeneralAntilles: I've made a huge post bout specific improvements. Only one was actually made May 04 14:47:08 GeneralAntilles: Headline links were added (which are black too btw) May 04 14:47:56 wazd, General: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4467 May 04 14:48:22 I hope the description is neutral enough and will satisfy both the web site maintainers and the ITT crowd May 04 14:49:03 Orange-on-gray will of course stay the default color, so the branding is retained May 04 14:49:43 RST38h: I should have another account to confirm? May 04 14:50:21 wazd: I think bugzilla accounts are separate from maemo ones May 04 14:54:41 RST38h: eeh... I had only "leave as unconfirmed" option May 04 14:55:14 wazd: oh you can't confirm it yourself May 04 14:55:26 wazd: But you can vote for it and if enough people vote it gets autoconfirmed May 04 14:55:49 Confirming isn't all that excitingly important here. May 04 14:56:42 wazd: Find "Vote for this bug" link, click on it and check it May 04 15:02:12 RST38h: it was hard but I've made it :) May 04 16:15:57 I bound /media/mmc2/user to /home/user via a init-script May 04 16:16:08 I linked ist to rcX.d as S10... May 04 16:47:00 Stskeeps: the Themes are not in /home/user? May 04 16:47:20 /usr/share/themes ? May 04 16:51:47 Meizirkki: I have some dataloss in /home/user now the theme wouldn't be loaded correctly May 04 16:54:52 I restored a backup, I hope it helps May 04 16:55:56 no, it didn't May 04 17:18:04 has anybody put Arm Slackware on the Tablet yet? May 04 17:22:14 has anyone gotten auto nick complete without tab working using xchat May 04 18:46:50 whoa May 04 18:46:53 where'd the orange writing go? May 04 18:46:57 (in titles) May 04 18:47:45 Stskeeps, gone, apparently. :P May 04 18:49:35 ehhehe May 04 19:03:42 "All personnel working around SCP-807 must be well-fed, and should preferably wear oral restraints to prevent accidental ingestion." May 04 19:13:49 Ev'nin all May 04 19:14:21 White wine at in-laws with Torchwood marathon. Great May 04 19:14:50 Not even articles on p.m.o can bring me down :) May 04 19:15:55 Livin' high, and having fun, eh? May 04 19:17:09 * johnx reads chinese forums through google translate May 04 19:20:25 umm... why? May 04 19:20:33 GeneralAntilles: Wine helps at the in-laws' ;-) May 04 19:35:41 A 15" laptop really is a battleship. May 04 19:35:45 hello May 04 19:36:08 anybody knows if exists a project for maemo running over nokia 5800?? May 04 19:46:56 no May 04 19:47:52 RST38h, the SmartQ 5 May 04 19:50:33 johnx: I am hearing about SmartQ since Sts got his this morning. What exactly is the big deal? It looks like a generic Chinese PMP, is there something special about it? May 04 19:51:10 RST38h, 1) it's cheap and commonly available in China 2) it's as open (maybe more open?) than the N8x0 devices were on launch May 04 19:51:19 but the emphasis is on 1. It's actually a big deal over there May 04 20:00:29 Hmm, interesting May 04 20:00:55 * RST38h thought hundreds of PMPs are commonly available in China, a market in Taipei certainly made me believe that May 04 20:01:30 RST38h, hundreds of open, linux-running PMPs with a company that's actually providing support and firmware updates? May 04 20:02:08 honestly, I don't know why this is so big, but I think it struck the same chord with the Chinese Linux community as the N8x0 struck with the US/CA/EU Linux community May 04 20:02:36 Most of the "MP4" and "MP5" PMPs are rockchip based, this is arm-based.. :) May 04 20:07:44 johnx: Interesting... May 04 20:08:20 johnx: I actually thought a lot of these devices were pretty open to begin with, but that is probably because I was looking from developer's point of view May 04 20:08:29 I mean, commercial developer May 04 20:09:03 yeah, I think (at least some people) are actually getting tired of pirating crappy half-working programs and having no recourse May 04 20:10:01 It was curious to find out a mips-based linux laptop had open documentation May 04 20:10:06 ..but only in chinese May 04 20:10:26 ah, that mips thing? I saw one of those at a little shop once :) May 04 20:10:28 I think May 04 20:10:36 There are several :) May 04 20:10:50 several based on same design May 04 20:10:57 it was like a MIPS, 64MB of RAM, Linux and a 480x320 7" screen. May 04 20:11:57 There's a family of them with MIPS, 512 - 2 gig of ram, 1024x600 9" too May 04 20:12:13 that sounds much more worthwhile May 04 20:12:14 Lemote YeeLoong 8089, for example May 04 20:12:35 the one I played with cost almost as much as the original eeePC, and was at almost the same weight... May 04 20:12:47 suihkulokki: Actually, I think I have English language documentation for it :) May 04 20:13:10 But not, I would not suggest a MIPS based laptop to anyone May 04 20:13:17 Only reason why you'd get it though is if you're a free (as in GNU) fanatic... it costs more than a low end EEE for similar performance and hungrier power consumption May 04 20:13:41 I highly doubt it's as fast as even the original eeePC... May 04 20:13:41 http://www.tekmote.nl/epages/61504599.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/61504599/Products/CFL-002 May 04 20:13:53 yeah it isn't May 04 20:13:59 MIPS devices are actually cheaper than ARM ones but, again, the architecture is mightily outdates May 04 20:14:05 outdated May 04 20:14:08 Stallman has that one as his primary computer :-) May 04 20:14:23 (after olpc embraced windows) May 04 20:14:24 heh, as long as it runs emacs, huh? May 04 20:14:44 Well, Stallman walks around the town with a kettle and a supermarket bag with tea packs May 04 20:14:54 (or so the legend says anyway) May 04 20:15:18 Yeah... and tinfoil May 04 20:15:19 actually, that's kinda cool May 04 20:15:29 335EU is a little high though May 04 20:15:34 yeah May 04 20:15:45 It's "kinda cool", I don't know why, but I think so too :-) May 04 20:16:12 RST38h: what? MIPS architecture is awesome May 04 20:16:18 I've been tempted to get one... but then I remind myself of what kind of EEE or Acer you could get for 335 May 04 20:16:34 luke: Have you actually tried programming for mips? May 04 20:16:37 at 335 or so, the HP mini looks really nice May 04 20:16:38 in assembler? May 04 20:16:48 RST38h: yes, and reverse engineered May 04 20:17:06 and how is that academic monstrosity better than arm? May 04 20:17:18 anyone else gets 96/100 in ACID3 in Tear? May 04 20:17:23 now you're asking for a relative comparison May 04 20:17:26 I don't know ARM asm May 04 20:17:44 you could compare it to itanium May 04 20:17:48 LiraNuna, me too. Bundyo was getting 100/100 a couple weeks ago May 04 20:17:58 I don't know Itanium asm either May 04 20:18:08 luke-jr, ARM has 16 registers, all 16bit May 04 20:18:11 32bit* May 04 20:18:22 named r0 to r15 May 04 20:18:37 ok May 04 20:18:45 MIPS has 32x 32-bit regs May 04 20:18:58 asm is similar to mips, but you don't have a 'dst' May 04 20:19:07 add r0, r1 May 04 20:19:12 r0 += r1 May 04 20:19:58 LiraNuna: this is a good thing? May 04 20:20:04 you can also inline shift, mov r0, r1, lsl#3 May 04 20:20:14 which is r0 = r1 << 3 May 04 20:20:25 MIPS is RISC ;) May 04 20:20:46 I know that, but the syntax is similar May 04 20:20:49 just no dst May 04 20:20:53 luke: You can't use most of MIPS registers because they are allocated by ABI or the OS May 04 20:21:14 RST38h: that's an ABI/OS issue May 04 20:21:28 luke: You do not have conditional opcode execution, builtin shifts, you can't load more than 16bit integer in a single instruction May 04 20:21:41 luke: When you are the one programming it, it is YOUR issue. May 04 20:22:13 RST38h: what stops an OS from using fewer registers? May 04 20:22:18 Let us see....mm....Ah, I forgot that once MIPS encounters a potential stall it just continues running, corrupting your state May 04 20:22:29 So the assembler automatically inserts NOPs for stalls :) May 04 20:22:50 sure you understand that? May 04 20:22:54 luke: What stops you from eating concrete bricks? May 04 20:23:03 instruction 3 is already started when instruction 1 finishes May 04 20:23:03 Yes, luke-jr, I understand that May 04 20:23:40 luke-jr: write a program that does loads, stores, or branches, compile it with assembler, then look at the binary May 04 20:24:01 * johnx makes some popcorn, grabs a drink May 04 20:24:11 RST38h: yes, I agree GCC could use some better MIPS optimizations ;) May 04 20:24:13 luke-jr: Ask yourself why some of your instructions take 2x32bit words, not just one May 04 20:24:17 Oh dear May 04 20:24:32 how do you expect to load a 32-bit value with only a single 32-bit word May 04 20:24:33 ? May 04 20:24:46 It is not about optimizations. It is about an architectural feature where MIPS does not stall no matter what May 04 20:24:58 define 'stall'? May 04 20:25:17 luke-jr: Do exactly what I said. See what happens. Google for the definition of "stall". May 04 20:25:43 Google doesn't know May 04 20:27:25 luke-jr: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_pipelining May 04 20:29:17 RST38h: looks like a safeguard for incorrect code May 04 20:31:26 luke-jr: looks like not having stalls implemented in HW restricts the possibilities to make a new CPU core with higher latencies which is still compatible with the binaries built for old CPUs May 04 20:32:42 ssvb: If Intel had had that restriction, we wouldn't have had the abomination known was the Pentium 4. May 04 20:32:54 ^ lol. May 04 20:33:02 *as May 04 20:35:29 luke-jr: you need a junior-level college class on comp arch May 04 20:36:16 derf: no, we would probably have itanic by now :) May 04 20:36:30 luke-jr: Anything taught by Hennessy&Patterson book will do. BTW, Hennessy is the guy who headed the MIPS project May 04 20:37:12 ...also makes some good booze May 04 20:38:40 ssvb: maybe my code EXPECTS the pipeline ;) May 04 20:42:21 pipelines by themselves are no problem May 04 20:42:42 They are actually good for you =) May 04 21:04:29 May 04 21:05:00 'night RST38h May 04 21:12:19 know this may sound strange but May 04 21:12:24 which debian install cd would i use for a core2duo? May 04 21:12:31 ia64? May 04 21:13:46 not ia64. you either want x86 or amd64 (not sure what it's called) May 04 21:14:06 hm. so no itanium arch used on core2duo? May 04 21:14:11 do they even make itaniums anymore? May 04 21:14:15 yup May 04 21:14:18 it's for servers May 04 21:14:20 oh May 04 21:14:24 not common servers though May 04 21:14:27 virtualization etc? May 04 21:14:32 how can I turn on or blink the N800 led? Does this envolve writing to a file in /proc like in laptops? May 04 21:14:32 not even... May 04 21:14:35 Unfortuently I do not believe that the Nokia n810 is for me. I bought it expecting it to have a faster processor than it does. So reckon I am going to sell it on Ebay. Any tips on how to "wipe" the internals and then make it like new again? May 04 21:14:42 more like cracking hte genome servers? May 04 21:14:50 yeah, stuff like that May 04 21:15:32 haha May 04 21:15:35 they are that good? May 04 21:15:57 Macer, not really, but some people have high budgets and low expectations. they're pretty good for a certain subset of problems May 04 21:16:01 matt, clean up files from the internal memory, then reflash May 04 21:16:07 haha May 04 21:16:15 KurtKraut, I think there's a d-bus call you can use. let me check May 04 21:16:19 high budgets and low expectations :) that's awesome May 04 21:16:45 johnx: Ok, so lets see, hook it up via usb to do the clean up? May 04 21:16:48 i honestly thought they were discontinued May 04 21:17:00 and were shoved into newer tech like core2duo May 04 21:17:01 matt, yup. delete anything that's yours, but leave the map files alone :) May 04 21:17:05 kind of like ppro and p3s May 04 21:17:21 johnx: So things such as passwords and stuff....stored in the things..........:( May 04 21:17:31 johnx, I want to make a plugin for Pidgin to make this led to blink when there are unread messages May 04 21:17:37 debian.org goes slow as shit May 04 21:17:41 Macer, nope. it's a totally different architecture. AMD forced Intel's hand by making 64-bit processors that were backwards compatible with x86 binaries May 04 21:18:34 matt: just reinstall the firmware. But what kind of usage you have that N810 is not fast enough? May 04 21:18:55 oh so itaniums were pure 64bit? May 04 21:18:56 KurtKraut: Mainly internet browsing..I just thought it'd be faster than it is. May 04 21:18:57 matt, that gets cleared when you reflash May 04 21:19:07 KurtKraut: I find myself waiting to get to my desktop instead.... May 04 21:19:08 well. that's an awesome concept :) May 04 21:19:14 really I just need a laptop.... May 04 21:19:22 they should leave i386 shit to C7s and atoms May 04 21:19:29 matt, before you sell it, have you tried the "Tear" web browser May 04 21:19:38 Macer, then why aren't you using an itanium? :) May 04 21:19:48 johnx: No I haven't, is it better? May 04 21:19:51 johnx: don't have one :( May 04 21:19:54 maybe i'll buy one May 04 21:19:59 i would rather buy a sparc first tho May 04 21:20:14 a dec alpha or something May 04 21:20:16 that would be awesome May 04 21:20:19 matt, lots better. might be worth a try before you reflash and clear out your tablet. nothing to lose after all :) May 04 21:20:23 matt: I don't think you will get faster than this on a portable device. May 04 21:20:31 KurtKraut, seen this: http://maemo.jabber.dk/ ? May 04 21:20:52 matt: i tried a netbook (the acer one) it's still slow as shit with xp or linux on it May 04 21:20:57 and that ist he laptop version of ultra-portable May 04 21:21:06 it's 10x larger than an n800 and runs slower imo May 04 21:21:19 johnx: KurtKraut I may take a look at it. But another major reason I am considering is this: I tried and tried and tried to format videos for the n810, but they weren't ever smooth unless I really made the videos crap quality. May 04 21:21:23 it was nice for an extremely small laptop though. i will give it that much. but it won't fit in a pocket May 04 21:21:37 matt, even in mplayer? May 04 21:21:46 matt: easiest way i found was to use nero recode and use the ipod profile May 04 21:21:55 johnx: Sadly. If I jumped the resolution down........well then it'd finally work. May 04 21:21:55 they run great doing that :) May 04 21:22:06 although you can probably make a better profile for it but i've never tried May 04 21:22:15 lcuk hey... seriously cool new 3D technology game available on the iPhone *and* should work on the N8x0 and probably 770 too very realistic : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2AF0GMjUsQ May 04 21:22:17 90MB and good enough quality to actually sit there and watch them without skipping May 04 21:22:18 Macer: I tried quite a bit of stuff............ May 04 21:22:26 johnx: no, and I cannot generate too much traffic on th connection I am using. Could you tell me what it is? May 04 21:22:29 matt, at about 400x240 or so video should still look pretty good May 04 21:22:31 matt: use nero recode ;) May 04 21:22:37 trust me.. easiest way May 04 21:23:02 KurtKraut, it's a LED blinking pluging for Pidgin. Source included. even if it doesn't work, it might give you a clue as to where to write to May 04 21:23:03 mp4/aac ftw May 04 21:23:13 bbl May 04 21:23:43 hello all. can someone tell me how I'd get the mac address of the device in python? May 04 21:23:50 the maemo device* May 04 21:23:52 it's an n810 May 04 21:24:08 do you mind just calling ash from inside python? May 04 21:25:16 lbt, thats hyper realistic, but the technology on the 810 cannot cope - where would the balls go May 04 21:25:17 johnx: was that to me? May 04 21:25:38 tds5016, yes. though I think someone had a way to do it in pure python May 04 21:25:50 I thought you'd be impressed May 04 21:26:28 johnx: oh okay. I'd prefer to have it in pure python. May 04 21:26:30 maybe we could get craves one to make an attachment May 04 21:26:44 but if worse comes to worse, I'll settle for making a call to ash. May 04 21:27:21 can you send me a tutorial on how I'd do that? May 04 21:28:01 well, in sh: /sbin/ifconfig | grep HW May 04 21:28:53 johnx: that sounds great, thanks. May 04 21:28:55 hm, maybe: /sbin/ifconfig | grep wlan0 May 04 21:29:04 that way if usb0 is up too you don't get both ;) May 04 21:29:36 cutting out the part you want is left as an exercise in python. :D should be simple though May 04 21:29:44 yay! got one N800! May 04 21:29:53 congrats paul0 May 04 21:29:57 now the battery is full, and i'll upgrade the firmware May 04 21:30:00 So...I plugged the nokia up to computer....I cannot remember where the *.* config files are. May 04 21:30:04 johnx, thanks :) May 04 21:30:43 matt, the config files will be erased when you reflash. for now just delete anything on the "Internal Memory" that's yours May 04 21:30:56 johnx: oh, then I should be good. May 04 21:31:02 johnx: now...how to reflash...... May 04 21:31:29 ~flashing May 04 21:31:31 hmm... flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware May 04 21:33:20 how do i check my firmware version? May 04 21:33:34 menu -> settings -> control panel -> about May 04 21:33:47 well, my N800 is probably running the OS2007, afaik all the N800 comes with it, right? May 04 21:34:11 i'll check anyway May 04 21:34:13 yup May 04 21:34:23 even if it's OS2008 it's probably an old version May 04 21:35:21 it is the OS2007 May 04 21:35:42 well, then definitely get that upgraded to OS2008 :) May 04 21:36:03 yup, i'm downloading the image May 04 21:36:08 good deal :) May 04 21:37:21 finally this N800 came to Brazil with a good price May 04 21:38:04 ah good! I heard they were really expensive there for a long time May 04 21:38:49 it usually costs R$1000, but one online store is selling it for R$399 now May 04 21:39:05 wow. that's a big price drop May 04 21:39:11 yup May 04 21:39:23 glad to hear it's not a scam, too ;) May 04 21:39:57 that's a lot closer to the US price :) May 04 21:40:08 yes May 04 21:40:27 R$1000 was more than the US launch price, I think May 04 21:40:30 now linux MIDs became much more popular May 04 21:40:32 here May 04 21:42:07 it doesn't come with FM Radio application already? May 04 21:42:22 nope. but it's available to download May 04 21:42:29 do you have wifi? May 04 21:42:40 yes, but i'll download it later May 04 21:43:03 first firmware upgrade, later i'll start downloading some applications :) May 04 21:47:33 etrunko: PING May 04 21:49:10 thopiekar: pong May 04 21:49:29 how is the progress with the e17 deb-repos? May 04 21:50:59 are there now available repos out there? , etrunko May 04 21:51:10 thopiekar: not ready yet May 04 21:51:23 http://packages.enlightenment.org May 04 21:51:33 I tried to make packages from svn May 04 21:51:44 but I have lots of trouble May 04 21:51:44 johnx: Macer I keep haveing troubles flashing it, I keep getting "command not found" May 04 21:51:49 for the flasher...it's odd. May 04 21:51:55 thopiekar: the guys are fixing the last bits in packages May 04 21:52:03 thopiekar: you tried for maemo? May 04 21:52:17 please add to the dependencies cvn of e17.. May 04 21:52:26 "Suitable USB device not found, waiting" May 04 21:52:28 or ubuntu/debian ? May 04 21:52:31 i've did something wrong? May 04 21:52:58 etrunko: no I need the packages for a virtual maschine.. May 04 21:53:26 etrunko: k.. so the repos will be online in the next... ? May 04 21:53:46 thopiekar: later this week i think May 04 21:54:44 I'm just thinking about making a vm for maemo.. maybe somethink like maemoSDKvm+.. INDT's vmdk's are not defragmented to they are very big.. May 04 21:55:13 hmm May 04 21:55:28 thopiekar, maybe talk to setanta here on freenode, he did the vmdk May 04 21:55:40 thopiekar: you can try #pkg-e for further information on the repository May 04 21:56:06 I managed to defragment a good solution with gnome, android sdk, maemo sdk , etc to 11,6GB and 7zip'd it to 2.8GB May 04 21:56:21 etrunko: k May 04 21:56:50 2.8GB are better to share than 20GB :P May 04 21:56:57 yeah May 04 21:57:36 so I want to make a new vm with e17.. e17 is very fast and lightwight.. so the best of a vm :) May 04 22:01:12 k.. I have to get some sleep.. see you soon :] May 04 22:01:22 what is the OS2008 default browser? May 04 22:02:36 I seemingly cannot flash my n810, either in opensuse 11.1 or ubuntu 8.10. May 04 22:03:01 everytime I go to run the flasher, either as root or user, it get "permission denied". May 04 22:03:18 matt: are you sudoing or sudo su - May 04 22:03:18 ? May 04 22:03:26 and yes, there is a difference. May 04 22:03:35 tds5016: tried both. May 04 22:03:59 rut r'oh then. haha. May 04 22:04:19 tds5016: I just sudoed su, ./flasher, nothing else, and get this. May 04 22:04:26 bash: ./flasher-3.0: Permission denied May 04 22:04:48 show me what happens if you log in with sudo su - May 04 22:04:50 first. May 04 22:05:03 tds5016: what do you mean? May 04 22:05:18 run the command sudo su - first May 04 22:05:29 that way you are actually become root. May 04 22:05:52 tds5016: tried it. May 04 22:05:58 okay, lemme see the outputs. May 04 22:07:47 tds5016: tds5016 permission denied. May 04 22:08:59 http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/d3.php May 04 22:09:23 tds5016: flasher-3.0, tried all three of them. May 04 22:10:01 tds5016: It's strange, because I have flashed it before. May 04 22:10:06 hmm.... that's strange. I've not much experience, so I may not be able to help. May 04 22:10:09 I'm sorry. May 04 22:10:47 matt, sudo chmod +x flasher-3.0 May 04 22:11:02 johnx: tried it May 04 22:11:14 hello, johnx :) May 04 22:11:34 hey b-man May 04 22:11:54 matt, you're sure you have the right version of the flasher? May 04 22:11:55 johnx: but...I'm trying the static version on my suse again, i think it will work. May 04 22:11:58 matt I hate suggesting this, but you could always try from windows... May 04 22:11:59 :-/. May 04 22:12:06 tds5016: yeah right........ May 04 22:12:18 johnx: Didn't try the static version on suse, it seems to be working. May 04 22:12:29 what is the OS2008 default browser? Is it Fennec? May 04 22:12:39 I'm guessing you had the amd64 version on a 32bit distro or vice versa May 04 22:12:43 johnx: Indeed, is working........ May 04 22:12:47 johnx: dunno. May 04 22:14:27 KurtKraut: microb May 04 22:21:14 sp3000: thanks. I miss a lot of features, for instance, block the rendering/download of images May 04 22:22:36 word May 04 22:22:49 * Macer is waiting for this damn debian install to encipher the hard drive May 04 22:24:35 KurtKraut, I think ther's an option to not load images. May 04 22:25:06 johnx: no, there isn't May 04 22:26:19 on the bottom right of the browser screen, click the magnifying glass -> show images -> never May 04 22:26:21 you can block javascript, but not images May 04 22:27:11 oh hell, i was looking for that on the main confifu May 04 22:27:13 :) May 04 22:27:34 oh hell, i was looking for that on the main configuration window. thanks again johnx May 04 22:27:52 no problem. it takes a while to get used to how they laid out the menus May 04 22:29:10 it's amazing how little scientists do :) May 04 22:29:47 they don't usually produce real world results May 04 22:30:24 true. May 04 22:30:31 pass me another wheel May 04 22:31:04 i don't think scientists created the wheel May 04 22:31:08 it was engineers May 04 22:31:15 nah, they built it May 04 22:31:23 i believe the last good thing a scientist made was the atom bomb May 04 22:31:23 a scientist invented it May 04 22:31:29 good? May 04 22:31:40 well... not the bomb in general... but nuclear fission May 04 22:31:49 are you calling the H-bomb bad then? May 04 22:31:51 it had real world results May 04 22:31:57 and fusion is not as good as fission? May 04 22:31:58 no.. it is neither nor May 04 22:32:04 fusion is better :) May 04 22:32:14 but that came after the atom bomb May 04 22:32:21 do they have fusion reactors? May 04 22:32:22 so the last good thing must have been fusion May 04 22:32:28 i thought they were all fission? May 04 22:33:23 i mean realistically.. the medical scientists are the only ones who have contributed anything tangible to the rest of the world in the last 50 years (if not more) May 04 22:33:57 so, say, semiconductors aren't tangible? May 04 22:34:16 nah you're right May 04 22:34:21 what are semiconductors doing that have improved the world greatly? May 04 22:34:22 medical fission May 04 22:34:28 made a nice train at disney world? May 04 22:34:39 well, I can think of some medical devices... May 04 22:34:48 that the medical scientists use May 04 22:36:10 and well.. :) May 04 22:36:16 semiconductors have been around since the 1800s May 04 22:36:30 they've been around since they fused in the sun May 04 22:36:54 sure in a philosophical "we are all stardust" kind of way May 04 22:37:12 and given silicon is a semiconductor then I suppose an egg-timer was the first semiconductor device May 04 22:37:27 but i mean... paleontologists.. they study ancient creatures.. how is that helping the world? May 04 22:37:46 how is it advancing humanity studying how a mammoth lived? May 04 22:38:27 you're right again... there's no point in looking to the past to see how things might change in the future May 04 22:38:36 say how animals coped in ice-ages May 04 22:38:38 sure certain things May 04 22:38:53 but .... the underlying problem was the ice age May 04 22:38:57 when we had changes to the world's temperature May 04 22:38:58 obviously we know what the conditions were May 04 22:39:04 nothing like toda May 04 22:39:05 y May 04 22:39:13 when we will havechanges to the world's temperature May 04 22:39:15 now it is time to find a way to cope with those conditions by making tangible technology May 04 22:39:32 you know what it was and what it does and there is nothing that is being done to do anything about it :) May 04 22:39:35 yes... to do what exactly? May 04 22:40:00 I like solar shades May 04 22:40:08 sounds cool in a big way May 04 22:40:12 on so many levels May 04 22:41:38 build an underground society ? May 04 22:42:00 something.. not just keep studying what the ice age was May 04 22:42:17 Hitler may have been a rotten bastard.. but i think the world needs fascism May 04 22:42:19 but look where the dinosaurs went.... May 04 22:42:22 underground May 04 22:42:33 they didn't go underground May 04 22:42:40 they all died and were covered up by lava May 04 22:42:43 * lbt calls Godwin May 04 22:42:45 :) May 04 22:43:12 fascism would point science into tangible things.. our education systems fail due to lack of control May 04 22:43:24 we have that "pick something you like" thing going on May 04 22:43:39 which in the end results in 1% tangible discovery May 04 22:43:47 and 99% bullshit May 04 22:46:21 30 years of education wasted just because johnny had a pet horse that died so he decided to become a veterinarian instead of a physisist May 04 22:46:46 OH NO METRICS RUN FOR YOUR LIFE May 04 22:46:46 and doesn't want to have anybody else lose their pet fish May 04 22:46:54 haha May 04 22:47:33 ok... i have to eat....using microwaves to heat water.. now that was a breakthrough May 04 22:53:09 sp3000: so... May 04 22:53:20 i understand why my mbp was unhappy May 04 22:53:28 and i decided to try to use my new hdd May 04 22:53:33 sadly i can't follow directions May 04 22:53:38 so i'll have to try again tomorrow May 04 22:54:01 heh May 04 22:55:04 so, instead, what am i doing? May 04 22:55:07 a friend's laptop died May 04 22:55:11 it's a lenovo May 04 22:55:17 and it has a "push to destroy all your data" button May 04 22:55:23 the system is cute May 04 22:55:30 30gb for the "destroyable parition" May 04 22:55:47 about 200gb for "your data if you're smart enough to manage to hide anything here" May 04 22:55:54 16gb for the "destroyer source partition" May 04 22:55:57 sadly May 04 22:56:01 it runs vista May 04 22:56:15 so the OS, ProgramFiles, and WinSxS all live on the destroyable partition May 04 22:56:18 so does %HOME% May 04 22:56:41 which meant that among other problems, the C: drive was running out of space (yippee) May 04 22:56:51 but the "reset your computer" button fixed that problem :) May 04 22:58:39 well... fixed is overstating it May 04 22:58:52 since it didn't fix the partitioning to not be insane May 04 22:59:35 otoh, i'd been waiting for an excuse to reformat the drive w/ a moderately sane partitioning scheme, and it presented itself :) May 04 23:00:28 hi all, just wondering if anyone has a solution for the problem with diablo initfs in n800 May 04 23:00:44 (the shipped initfs is too big) May 04 23:01:10 ?
