**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jun 29 02:59:56 2009 Jun 29 02:59:59 ahh thanks Jun 29 03:00:01 it's on the second page of character chart Jun 29 03:00:06 cool Jun 29 03:00:09 found it Jun 29 03:00:25 also handy to know that tab is on the first page of the character chart :D Jun 29 03:00:26 duh Jun 29 03:00:30 I setup the Yen symbol to be | Jun 29 03:00:34 pitiful right there in front of me Jun 29 03:00:38 and Fullscreen to be tab Jun 29 03:00:56 luke-jr: there is actually :P the same chip also handles sim cards :) Jun 29 03:01:09 not connected to anything on n810, of course Jun 29 03:01:24 ShadowJK: why would the N810 contain a chip that isn't connected to anything? Jun 29 03:01:45 comhack, the wikipedia pages are reasonably accurate. Jun 29 03:02:00 Luke-Jr, battery charging. Jun 29 03:02:01 cool thanks GeneralAntilles Jun 29 03:02:08 Cheaper to recycle parts from other Nokia platforms. Jun 29 03:02:23 luke-jr: it does a bunch of other stuff too. the sound, codecs and sim card stuff on the chip isn't connected to anything though Jun 29 03:02:42 O.o Jun 29 03:02:49 nokia reused phone chips instead of designing new ones Jun 29 03:02:56 the battery charging has a chip? and it does audio/codecs/SIM? Jun 29 03:03:08 wtf is BME for if there's a dedicated chip Jun 29 03:03:16 GeneralAntilles: those are just the general specs all pages usually show. I was looking for the exact specs audio, video, bluetooth, etc chipset but did not realize that they are built into the chip Jun 29 03:03:19 BB5 Jun 29 03:03:22 yeah it has a chip... might have two actually Jun 29 03:03:32 Luke-Jr, the chip doesn't contain anything but the most basic protection logic. Jun 29 03:03:47 But something has to be told to handle the voltage scaling and such. . . . Jun 29 03:03:57 Voltage scaling can't magically be done by the OMAP2 Jun 29 03:04:06 hmm Jun 29 03:04:13 so why didn't they use the sound functionality? :/ Jun 29 03:04:28 Because it's hooked up to the OMAP2. . . . Jun 29 03:04:38 so? Jun 29 03:04:41 the specs I saw seem to suggest it turns things on at 2.something volt, which is too low for all the n810 components to run on, and too low for the battery to be safe, and too low for the battery to last through boot Jun 29 03:04:50 OMAP2 sound takes off CPU time Jun 29 03:05:11 Yeah, it's lower level than that. . . . Jun 29 03:05:17 hmm Jun 29 03:05:25 considering how much people whine about the external display controller... Jun 29 03:05:41 i.e., it's basically a headphone amp, not a sound controller. . . . Jun 29 03:05:46 speaking of sound, has anyone noticed latency/stuttering on apps like vgb, ines, etc? Jun 29 03:05:49 ah Jun 29 03:06:13 Luke-Jr, think of it vaguely like the TWL4030 Jun 29 03:06:20 I woudlnt be surprised if they arent using it at all on their entire smartphone range where cpu is plenty Jun 29 03:06:32 But for OMAP2 and Nokia's own proprietary stuff instead of TI's Jun 29 03:06:33 GeneralAntilles: I know nothing of the TWL4030 Jun 29 03:06:41 Luke-Jr, nevermind then. Jun 29 03:06:41 i think it can do gsm and amr audio codec though Jun 29 03:06:49 ooo Jun 29 03:07:22 someone should do Free GSM and AMR codecs Jun 29 03:07:55 it's in progress Jun 29 03:08:00 really? Jun 29 03:08:24 Actually i think there might be some in android Jun 29 03:08:36 doubt it, tbh Jun 29 03:08:50 they're probably using the non-Free codecs like everyone else Jun 29 03:08:53 ignoring the legal problems Jun 29 03:09:45 ah well, there's atleast an unfinished LGPL version in ffmpeg's gaoc repo somewhere :) Jun 29 03:10:21 I think the guy tasked to complete it got distracted writing a free aac decoder though Jun 29 03:10:23 is there any point in keeping nokia maps? :P Jun 29 03:10:39 which is now in ffmpeg and works quite nicely Jun 29 03:11:43 gsoc repo* Jun 29 03:13:11 hello world! Jun 29 03:13:23 I just installed irssi on my router :P Jun 29 03:13:30 openwrt > dd-wrt Jun 29 03:13:34 :) Jun 29 03:13:35 man_in_shack, there's no Nokia Maps on Maemo. Jun 29 03:13:40 ~seen b-man16 Jun 29 03:13:42 b-man16 was last seen on IRC in channel #maemo, 23h 21m 18s ago, saying: 'i think that it requires enabling some functions in the kernel'. Jun 29 03:13:50 where the hell is he :P Jun 29 03:14:00 ok g2g, ill get my xps back up Jun 29 03:14:41 n810 comes with wayfinder Jun 29 03:14:45 "maps" Jun 29 03:15:16 which is different from "Nokia Maps", only available on S60 Jun 29 03:15:23 GeneralAntilles, well whatever it is. the map program that came preinstalled with the n810 Jun 29 03:15:32 ShadowJK, "Map" Jun 29 03:15:38 Wayfinder Map Jun 29 03:15:49 ok Jun 29 03:16:09 i have maemo mapper too :D Jun 29 03:40:41 ok, this is nuts Jun 29 03:40:52 i have about 6 abiword links in Extras menu now Jun 29 03:43:40 thankfully they're all gone now Jun 29 03:52:42 ShadowJK: "Maps" doesn't work in Diablo Jun 29 03:52:46 Does anyone know what the maemo equivelant to the xscreensaver extension headers is? Jun 29 03:52:54 map Jun 29 03:53:42 i'd probably look in osso if someone held a gun ti my head and demanded an answer Jun 29 04:03:41 * man_in_shack holds a water pistol to ShadowJK's head and politely requests an answer Jun 29 04:09:44 go look yourslf :-) Jun 29 04:13:16 * xnt14 goes to sleep Jun 29 04:17:58 anyone tried "simple launcher" hildon applet? it's not getting added when i select it in the applet list on diablo/n810 Jun 29 04:28:59 wow, what the hell did i just put on my home screen? Jun 29 04:29:29 some sort of astrological clock/calendar thingy Jun 29 04:31:16 remind me, are there a browser accessible within canola? Jun 29 04:47:20 t_s_o, probably not. i just installed it accidentally and removed it :P Jun 29 04:48:40 i dont think anyone uses simple launcher any more, instead favoring personal launcher, or personal menu... Jun 29 04:52:35 personal launcher? Jun 29 04:53:41 Hello all, I am wanting to develop a plug-in in maemomm, which is a home screem applet. I think, It can be done by the use of "libhildondesktop". Jun 29 04:53:53 But there is no help regarding this library! Jun 29 04:54:13 Where i can get the help .. or tutorial ragarding this! Jun 29 04:54:25 Any body can say...or do any help!

Jun 29 06:58:49 compat-wireless-2.6-old, yes Jun 29 06:58:58 mmkay Jun 29 06:59:13 I'm not having much luck with updating kernels, it's acting inconsistently :/ Jun 29 06:59:23 how come wanting to use stlc45xx btw? Jun 29 06:59:44 monitor mode mostly Jun 29 07:00:16 ah Jun 29 07:00:39 the default driver likes to get confused Jun 29 07:01:06 I've had better luck with cx3110x monitor mode than stlc45xx actually Jun 29 07:01:16 really? Jun 29 07:01:31 Maiku: meet luke-jr, local troll but he also does interesting work on 2.6.30 for n8x0s Jun 29 07:01:39 f u Stskeeps -.- Jun 29 07:01:41 maybe I won't miss yo Jun 29 07:02:07 Luke-Jr: on kernel 2.6.21 as well?

Jun 29 07:03:53 not sure, I've been using airodump Jun 29 07:03:58 -ng Jun 29 07:04:34 I haven't tried kismet yet Jun 29 07:04:35 i c Jun 29 07:04:46 kismet ♡ Jun 29 07:04:49 it makes me pretty maps Jun 29 07:04:53 http://dashjr.org/maps/wifi/ Jun 29 07:04:55 :D Jun 29 07:05:26 maybe the trick is just to reload the driver when it gets confused? Jun 29 07:06:00 oh, yeah Jun 29 07:06:08 /etc/init.d/tablet-wireless restart Jun 29 07:06:09 :þ Jun 29 07:06:12 on Gentoo anyhow Jun 29 07:07:18 Luke-Jr: a-ha, coordinates to help me target you with laser shooting satellites! ;) Jun 29 07:07:55 Stskeeps: -.- Jun 29 07:08:12 jesus, kansas has a lot of APs Jun 29 07:08:43 +city Jun 29 07:09:25 lol Jun 29 07:09:27 yeah Jun 29 07:09:58 hmm, well it's not /etc/init.d/tablet-wireless in maemo :P Jun 29 07:10:09 maybe wlancond?

Jun 29 07:41:44 nope Jun 29 07:42:17 why does kismet seem to be working better then? Jun 29 07:42:40 it's seeming to be working better than airodump-ng, it isn't making up new variations of essids and bssids Jun 29 07:43:02 short of one, but that's within statistical error :P Jun 29 07:45:11 Morning, all Jun 29 07:54:37 morn jaffa Jun 29 09:04:38 is there some tricks to get more space on a n810? run out of space on /dev/mtdblock4. though a vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 has loads of space. Jun 29 09:10:38 there are some pdfs, images, and a video floating around that one can move/delete... Jun 29 09:11:13 beyond that there is the option of booting from SD rather then internal Jun 29 09:13:53 t_s_o: then I would have to setup the SD card eh? /dev/mmcblk0p1 seems to be embedded in the device as i can't figure out where it comes out Jun 29 09:14:44 thats a 2GB SD card in the shape of a chip located on the connector where the N800 had a second SD slot... Jun 29 09:22:52 "All that innocent experimentation with fuel cells that run on blood has led to this, a flesh-eating clock. " Jun 29 09:23:57 has anyone compiled qt 4.5.2 for the device? Jun 29 09:24:09 RST38h: hm, sounds rather useful Jun 29 09:24:55 aquatix: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/06/flypaperup-robot.jpg Jun 29 09:25:23 oh wow Jun 29 10:29:44 i am developing a plug in for N810.

Jun 29 10:43:33 i am developing a plug in for N810. I don't have any main() function in the .c file. I have made a .so and a corresponding .desktop file. I have put .so inside "/usr/lib" and desktop file inside "/usr/share/application/hildon-home". But when i am selecting the application from"Home->Select Applet" it is not launching the application. What may be the problem..?Any body can help? Jun 29 10:43:45 sarower: you do not need to repeat the question over and over, this isn't a newsticker Jun 29 10:43:55 sarower: patience!!!! have you looked into or followed the instructions in the manual? Jun 29 10:44:01 no need to repeat yourself unless it's specifically alehorst you want to talk to Jun 29 10:44:18 yes... it is ok Jun 29 10:44:30 look at my reply, is there output? Jun 29 10:45:29 but as RST38h was in offline... thats why i have repeated... i am sorry for that! Jun 29 10:51:11 RST38h: can you please help me? Jun 29 10:51:59 i can give you the source if you want! Jun 29 10:52:38 Hint: Repeatedly asking a person the same question multiple times generally makes them less likely for them to want to help you Jun 29 10:53:38 well...... Jun 29 10:53:56 i will not repeat again... Jun 29 10:54:19 qwerty12_N810: you are telling to me? Jun 29 10:54:30 sarower: how much are you willing to pay?

Jun 29 10:57:23 I am currently at my work place, debugging stuff, being paid for that Jun 29 10:57:45 If you want me to debug your stuff instead, I can, but only when paid. Jun 29 10:57:56 Am I being sufficiently clear? Jun 29 10:58:02 and if you need to see the code.. then i can give it.. for example Jun 29 10:58:04 ! Jun 29 10:58:15 don't kidding.. i am poor man..! Jun 29 10:58:25 Then learn to debug your code on your own. Jun 29 10:58:27 RST38h: Are you sure that your emplyer likes the sidejobs ;) Jun 29 10:58:45 Razumihin: As long as they are done during off hours, there is no problem Jun 29 10:58:51 :) Jun 29 10:59:29 and my coding flow dropped to irc :( Jun 29 11:00:27 RST38h: i know.. the facts.. but if any body can help, then it would be better and quicker.. for me .. right?

Jun 29 13:36:24 qwerty12_N810, thanks Jun 29 13:36:38 qwerty12_N810, that's all I need to do? I don't need to mention it in rules or something? Jun 29 13:37:35 pvanhoof: nope, dh_installdeb handles it for you Jun 29 13:37:57 qwerty12_N810, you know whether dbus-send is available on the PR image (typically)? Jun 29 13:38:36 pvanhoof: no, sorry, don't know the first thing about Fremantle :) Jun 29 13:38:48 ok, thanks for the info about postinst Jun 29 13:43:27 pvanhoof: dbus-send's been available in every Maemo version so far on the device (IIRC) Jun 29 13:44:16 Jaffa, thanks Jun 29 13:44:46 Jaffa, the script I just added (to the google-images album art downloader) requests albumart postinst the albumart downloader Jun 29 13:45:00 Which means that for all albums that didn't yet have albumart, a request is made Jun 29 13:45:36 http://gitorious.org/google-album-art-downloader/google-album-art-downloader/commit/0c50befd9963e6eae07b846f5fa5c067ce188a09 Jun 29 13:46:56 _berto_, I still wonder about the user/multimedia category and the comment from Quim, any advise on what Section: line I should use instead? Jun 29 13:50:53 btw why not user/media ? Jun 29 13:54:53 hmm.. is there a maemo port of allegro? Jun 29 13:58:04 RST38h: Because that is not an official section. Jun 29 14:00:14 X-Fade: Too bad Jun 29 14:00:35 X-Fade: "multimedia" is too long, longer than most other categories Jun 29 14:01:21 RST38h: It is only a 'functional english' name. Not the pretty one you see in the AM. Jun 29 14:02:18 RST38h: And we also have development, navigation and education being about the same length. Jun 29 14:05:26 ah Jun 29 14:05:30 true Jun 29 14:07:06 ~package-categories Jun 29 14:07:11 Finally, somebody thought about it: http://gizmodo.com/5303579/80s-superhero-alert-motorcycle-features-full+sized-sidecar Jun 29 14:08:53 ~package-categories is http://wiki.maemo.org/Package_Categories Jun 29 14:08:54 GAN800: okay Jun 29 14:11:45 Need more time. . . . Jun 29 14:20:41 <_Mayito_> hi all Jun 29 14:21:05 <_Mayito_> someone can help me to flash my nokia n810 ? please :-D ... Jun 29 14:21:13 Stskeeps: Is there no mailing list for mer? Jun 29 14:21:39 there is itt Jun 29 14:21:39 <_berto_> pvanhoof: if you don't want your package to appear in the app manager, just remove the 'user/' prefix Jun 29 14:21:41 moo wazd Jun 29 14:21:48 RST38h: heya Jun 29 14:21:51 hello all Jun 29 14:22:00 <_Mayito_> hi wazd Jun 29 14:22:26 _berto_, ok Jun 29 14:22:47 <_berto_> pvanhoof: if it's a library, I guess the section should be 'libs' Jun 29 14:23:20 <_berto_> (away) Jun 29 14:23:41 Stskeeps: The "Discussion" page linked from here doesn't exist: http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer Jun 29 14:24:20 ~flashing Jun 29 14:24:20 well, flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware Jun 29 14:24:21 Ah, I see that's just a generic per-page wiki link. (I don't think it's wise to make that as prominient as the site-wide links.) Jun 29 14:24:22 murrayc: wiki.maemo.org/Mer/Awareness -- refers to mer-chatter@garage.maemo.org ,, high volume microblogging, digest mode recommended Jun 29 14:24:48 but also normal posts Jun 29 14:25:21 _Mayito_, http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware Jun 29 14:25:39 The mailing list is a feed or twitter/jaiku messages? Have you lost your senses? Jun 29 14:26:41 <_Mayito_> VDVsx: thank you, when I said I want to flash my tablet, I meant I want to flash my tablet to the internal memory instead the default\ Jun 29 14:26:56 Anyway, I wanted to ask about hardware for me. I want to get some beagleboards. But I guess that maemo on mer (or anywhere) is useless without a touchscreen. Jun 29 14:27:11 So what touchscreens are people using with maemo on beagleboards? Jun 29 14:27:15 <_Mayito_> VDVsx: I decided to flash the OS to the internal memory card, I think there is plenty space to hold the OS and all the software I need, so I just followed the little tutorial up to the partitioning part ... I did even already partitioned my internal flash card Jun 29 14:28:12 no, short mail messages, either manually or throuugh irc. we used jaiku in the past but it sucked. the mailing list stuff works quite well - mer Jun 29 14:28:47 mer works with mouse too Jun 29 14:28:48 Stskeeps: Is there any chance of their ever being an actual mailing list so people can actually discuss mer? Jun 29 14:28:56 <_Mayito_> VDVsx: the little tutorial asks you to format those two new partitions, which I did it, my question is, which partition should I have mounted before the flashing ? Jun 29 14:30:43 murrayc: sure, most people use mer-chatter to be always up to date so most are subscribed there or through rss Jun 29 14:31:25 Stskeeps: Is that a "Yes, we can add a mailing list"? Jun 29 14:31:44 murrayc: but yes, i'll look at mailing list when i'm back from holiday Jun 29 14:31:48 THanks. Jun 29 14:32:26 but mer-chatter is usable for discussion too Jun 29 14:32:51 Who would ever open any email that I sent to it. It would be lost in all that crap. Jun 29 14:33:08 And if people are using digest then their's no way to have a threaded conversation. Jun 29 14:33:12 Really, this is rather obvious. Jun 29 14:33:20 s/their's/there's Jun 29 14:33:34 sorry for typos, on way to holiday in train. and you're right Jun 29 14:33:37 I guess you can also use talk? Jun 29 14:33:57 Maybe. It should at least be mentioned on the website. Jun 29 14:35:21 yeah, thats where our primary discussions are. will do when i'm back in a week --- lbt: can you refer to Talk/alternatives in mer wiki? Jun 29 14:35:58 http://wiki.maemo.org/Talk:Mer Jun 29 14:36:06 done already ;) Jun 29 14:36:31 * RST38h does not open any email from developers mailing list Jun 29 14:36:35 So? Jun 29 14:36:49 not sure thats where that belongs.. :P Jun 29 14:37:26 murrayc, that's how the wiki is arranged. Deal. Jun 29 14:37:28 I guess different people have different communication habits Jun 29 14:37:54 GAN800: I'm filing a bug about the misleading styling of those links in the wiki. That's how I deal. Jun 29 14:38:29 murrayc: I'm used to email based dev too... but I use filters to arrange my email and Mer-chatter works very well for me. Jun 29 14:39:02 I'd be happy to have Mer as well though Jun 29 14:39:19 Even so... Mer is significantly irc based at the moment Jun 29 14:39:26 hello Jun 29 14:39:30 hi Jun 29 14:39:44 my tablet is dead :((((((((((((( Jun 29 14:39:53 CPR ?

Jun 29 15:12:02 also advanced-power-monitor Jun 29 15:12:22 whereas hald-addon-bme is HW:N8x0 Jun 29 15:13:16 I guess so, indeed. The choice of where it should go wasn't made by me. Dunno about SmartQ other then toggles' work. Jun 29 15:13:40 sure... it should run anywhere though :) Jun 29 15:13:43 cool ... done Jun 29 15:13:52 :) Jun 29 15:18:59 hi Jun 29 15:19:10 is there any value that I can check to see if the battery of an N810 is in good condition? Jun 29 15:22:32 i presume burning it would be a bad idea? Jun 29 15:22:45 not really other than logging the voltage every 5min and seeing how it decays Jun 29 15:28:22 i was thinking.. is there a portable (diablo, fremantle, mer compatible at least) way of getting window size (720x420 on diablo) ? Jun 29 15:28:25 from bare SDL/X11 Jun 29 15:31:56 sdl cannot change res Jun 29 15:32:01 you can with X Jun 29 15:32:21 see mplayer, liqbase Jun 29 15:32:48 ok, thanks lardman Jun 29 15:33:00 np Jun 29 15:36:09 i don't really want to switch res Jun 29 15:37:09 i just want to know how big the task navigator and status bar are Jun 29 15:37:47 though I guess I could just lie and let matchbox resize the window Jun 29 15:42:09 open a screenshop in gimp, javispedro Jun 29 15:42:18 t Jun 29 15:42:41 but in a portable way Jun 29 15:42:48 oh Jun 29 16:21:43 hi all Jun 29 16:22:28 is there something I need to know when programing with qt4 and python2.5 in devices? Jun 29 16:24:11 I'm working beside tabletDJ on my own project of a syncing program which uses pyqt4 for its gui and it works fine on win and lin but it fails to load the qt4 module on my divice.. Jun 29 16:24:28 python2.5-qt4-dev is installed... Jun 29 16:34:04 ok got it now working by installing python2.5-qt-dev-tools Jun 29 16:34:19 but why is the preformence to slow?! Jun 29 16:34:40 there is not much code behind my little app Jun 29 16:36:20 and why the hell is everything reformated? Jun 29 16:36:29 buttons are too little.. Jun 29 16:36:31 etc Jun 29 17:13:56 Guys, I just flashed my 770 with 08HE, and I can't seem to get any commands...in xterm. Jun 29 17:14:03 there's only a very very few commands Jun 29 17:14:40 am I missing something? a package maybe? Jun 29 17:15:54 anyone got pyserial working on maemo? i got the bugger installed but im cant communicate over it, and yes i have put the device into host mode Jun 29 17:18:51 as I know the pyserial module should work fine because it's operating system independent Jun 29 17:19:22 so there should be no difference between a linux-pc and your tablet Jun 29 17:20:47 but as you can see practisevoodoo_ here in the channel its very quite atm.. I have never worked with that module so it seems that you have to wait a time or start a thread on talk.maemo.org Jun 29 17:20:48 :) Jun 29 17:20:57 same code that works on my linux machine doesnt work on the nokia Jun 29 17:21:16 dont worry ill hang around and try again later Jun 29 17:21:19 hmm very strange for sure! Jun 29 17:21:23 k Jun 29 17:22:36 but as you can see the biggest part of problem have you to solve.. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=29847 Jun 29 17:22:38 :P Jun 29 17:22:55 for example in my case.. Jun 29 17:30:12 does anyone here know of any irc clients in development for maemo? Jun 29 17:30:15 im getting sick of xchat Jun 29 17:30:28 practise: Let me guess... Reading from non-aligned addresses? Jun 29 17:30:56 err Jun 29 17:34:10 amr, what's wrong with XChat? Jun 29 17:34:50 it's not a maemo native app Jun 29 17:34:54 its clunky Jun 29 17:35:05 .. Jun 29 17:35:07 Clunky? Jun 29 17:35:11 i mean a 'written-for' application Jun 29 17:35:16 clunky as in, too much clutter Jun 29 17:35:27 it's got tabs, an input field and a text box Jun 29 17:35:28 join more than say 5 channels and the bar overflows off the screen Jun 29 17:35:34 go use the options then Jun 29 17:35:37 far more than is needed Jun 29 17:35:37 It's too simple to be 'clunky'. Jun 29 17:35:48 user experiences are subjective Jun 29 17:35:50 not objective Jun 29 17:35:58 Meh, I use the options maybe once. Jun 29 17:36:12 OK then, whatever. Jun 29 17:36:13 heh, whats gonna happen when clutter is a part of the ui itself Jun 29 17:39:36 guess what im using right now :P Jun 29 17:44:40 lbt: Hey Jun 29 17:47:41 Stskeeps: did you have a newer version of xterm for me to try? Jun 29 17:48:08 lcuk: clutter^2 Jun 29 17:48:31 actually Xchat is just fine after a bit of tinkering Jun 29 17:48:57 can't say the same about gnumeric though Jun 29 17:49:17 lol Jun 29 18:01:55 See, if I type in wget, it says it's not found... Jun 29 18:02:10 Heh, anyone willing to guess the most expensive city in the world? Jun 29 18:03:12 anyone know what's up with that? Jun 29 18:03:41 Knowledge: wget is not found on your machine. you have to install it. Jun 29 18:04:13 right, but I never had to do that before...I always installed xterm and it was there. Jun 29 18:04:16 Copenhagen is #5? What on earth for? Jun 29 18:04:17 hmm... Jun 29 18:04:28 derf: #1 is more amusing though Jun 29 18:04:47 * RST38h kinda expected it from Copenhagen Jun 29 18:04:50 Yeah, but I haven't been to that one. Jun 29 18:05:07 I've been to Copenhagen, and I would never have guessed it'd've made the list. Jun 29 18:05:09 I don't even know where angola is Jun 29 18:05:12 or luanda Jun 29 18:05:15 for that matter Jun 29 18:05:20 Good for you Jun 29 18:05:32 What kind of knowledge are you anyway? Jun 29 18:05:40 not so much of it.... Jun 29 18:05:48 apparently Jun 29 18:05:55 derf: what was the exchange rate when you visited? =) Jun 29 18:07:00 6 kroner/$? Jun 29 18:07:03 Somewhere around there, anyway. Jun 29 18:07:26 derf: things changed since then/ Jun 29 18:07:50 "6 Danish kroner = 1.132758 U.S. dollars" Jun 29 18:07:56 I mean, it was like 2 years ago. Jun 29 18:08:02 so what's #1? Jun 29 18:08:11 toggles: Fucking Luanda, Angola Jun 29 18:08:26 $50+ for a lunch Jun 29 18:08:26 no way Jun 29 18:08:36 yes. Jun 29 18:08:40 either I've been that out of touch with the tablet scene...or all the packages are gone. Jun 29 18:09:17 derf: two years are sufficient. Ruble fell from 23/$ to 31/$ in a couple of months and see what it has done to the ranking? :) Jun 29 18:10:12 RST38h: I mean, that conversion rate I posted was from Google today. Jun 29 18:14:12 I mean, I have no real idea what they're using to measure "expensive". Jun 29 18:14:23 If it takes taxes into account, for example, that could skew things quite a bit. Jun 29 18:14:32 All those bicycles... Jun 29 18:18:24 derf: they actually say what they use Jun 29 18:18:45 derf: movie ticket, lunch, washing machine, a kilo of rice, etc Jun 29 18:18:49 Yeah, but then I'd have to look for the original article, rather than the first Google result. Jun 29 18:19:01 lazy =) Jun 29 18:19:23 Because this is something worth investing time and effort into? Jun 29 18:19:47 knowledge always is Jun 29 18:20:29 There's an infinite amount of it. One has to pick and choose. Jun 29 18:21:41 derf: here, enjoy: http://sfscope.com/2009/05/comics-artist-mark-sable-detai.html :) Jun 29 18:29:53 Hi Jun 29 18:33:03 hello Jun 29 18:33:25 slonopotamus: have you made your own patches for evtouch? Jun 29 18:33:39 err... no, why? Jun 29 18:33:56 slonopotamus: it didn't compiled with 1.6 xorg Jun 29 18:34:07 hmm Jun 29 18:34:49 i have 1.5.3-r6 Jun 29 18:35:16 slonopotamus: here are the quick & dirty patches http://www.goron.de/~johns/n810/xf86-input-evtouch-0.8.8.patch.gz Jun 29 18:35:53 do they make it build with both 1.5 and 1.6? Jun 29 18:36:52 slonopotamus: I haven't tested. some should work for both because they are api querys ==2 -> >=2 Jun 29 18:38:20 slonopotamus: this no good patchset, only to get it working for testing. i wonder why they haven't added RB emulation to evdev. Jun 29 18:38:35 rb? Jun 29 18:38:49 RB= right button Jun 29 18:41:15 hello again Jun 29 18:41:41 can anybody give me an advice bout laptop?) Jun 29 18:42:40 I need something like 13", light and good for office work Jun 29 18:43:15 sounds like any 13" light laptop will do. Jun 29 18:43:32 "office work" = covered since Pentium III. Jun 29 18:43:45 oh, and something not plastic Jun 29 18:43:49 or n810 :) Jun 29 18:44:20 and with price tag not exceding 2k greenbacks) Jun 29 18:44:38 ok, not plastic = mac, leveno, panasonic, and that's about it. Jun 29 18:44:47 ok, mac, leveno. Jun 29 18:44:50 you're making this easy. Jun 29 18:44:58 mac is heavy Jun 29 18:45:06 wazd: A MacBook? :) Jun 29 18:45:13 ok, you've made your decision. A 13" leveno. Done. Jun 29 18:45:32 RST38h, it's 2kg, too heavy Jun 29 18:45:50 wazd: You want a 13"laptop made of metal Jun 29 18:45:57 wazd: Do you expect it to be light? Jun 29 18:46:18 RST38h, it's for my sister so weight is critical( Jun 29 18:46:27 wazd: Netbook won't do? Jun 29 18:46:52 why metal? Jun 29 18:46:53 wazd_n800: new samsung nxx looks good with atom/ion. Jun 29 18:47:11 RST38h, they're too small for her, we were concidering hp 2140 first Jun 29 18:47:55 RST38h, we were thinking bout leather asuses Jun 29 18:47:59 wazd: 2140 has 10" display Jun 29 18:48:13 wazd: Can't say much about asuses, execpt that asus hw is shitty Jun 29 18:48:22 RST38h, yep, thats a deal breaker Jun 29 18:48:33 why? Jun 29 18:48:39 wazd: you may want to consider toshiba r-series (I have got one) or Lenovo X-series (eek) Jun 29 18:49:06 why is owning two $300 laptops over a period of 4 years a dealbreaker but owning one $1000 over the course of 4 years isn't? Jun 29 18:49:25 soap: Price is not an issue. Weight and screen size are. Jun 29 18:49:46 soap, 10" screen is a breaker Jun 29 18:50:18 wazd: I am pretty sure you won't find anything light with 13" screen, but 12+" is doable Jun 29 18:50:34 soap, she likes my 2133 very much but it's really too small for her work Jun 29 18:50:54 rst38h, 12" is fine Jun 29 18:51:21 wazd: I am googling for some site that would let you limit laptop search by weight and screen size Jun 29 18:53:34 wazd: http://www.pcmag.com/products/0,,tqs=360B0CC1DA41680B34D9ABCBEEE4254490F76A59,00.asp?action=defaultadvancedquery&cid=&sid=1565&gridtitle=Recent+Product+Reviews&googlequery=q%3d%26start%3d0%26num%3d10%26mt823%3d21234%26mt395%3d14358%26mt48%3d22590&stpdinglp=1 Jun 29 18:53:49 wazd: Limit your search to Ultraportables, Core 2 Duo CPU Jun 29 18:54:38 RST38h, oh, thanks alot Jun 29 18:56:04 RST38h, derf , what is the reference for the most expensive city index, that you guys are following ? o_0 Jun 29 18:56:05 wazd: Lenovo X301 looks like a decent choice (13", 3.3lbs) Jun 29 18:56:43 VDVsx: http://images.businessweek.com/ss/09/06/0615_most_expensive_cities/index.htm Jun 29 18:56:54 wazd: Although I absolutely hate Lenovo Jun 29 18:58:25 RST38h, thanks Jun 29 18:59:13 RST38h, well, thinkpads are really not thhe ladies choice) Jun 29 18:59:38 RST38h, is your tosh metal? Jun 29 19:00:37 this is very hard to believe, Angola is a rising nation, but still people are very poor out there Jun 29 19:06:20 fiferboy: hi Jun 29 19:06:33 How'd the build go? Jun 29 19:06:51 locally it built -- seems slow though Jun 29 19:07:14 http://gitorious.org/+mer/qt/qt-mer Jun 29 19:07:22 I'm getting ready to try the 4.5.2 packages - with the fingerscroll libqtgui.so library Jun 29 19:07:23 what do you guys think bout dell adamo?

Jun 29 19:27:28 Knowledge_, its extras Jun 29 19:27:45 hmm....ok thanks wazd. Jun 29 19:27:58 I'm just not able to find xterm advanced, oh well... Jun 29 19:33:11 Palm Pre 1.0.4 Update Kills Homebrew, Patches Security Holes Jun 29 19:33:21 Hohoho! Another war is on =) Jun 29 19:34:09 * RST38h wonders when these suits finally understand that they are choking their own cash cow Jun 29 19:34:21 ble Jun 29 19:34:30 as a pre owner,i agree Jun 29 19:34:32 moar apps plz Jun 29 19:34:52 well, it kinda makes sense why they closed this hole Jun 29 19:35:06 you can still get apps on the pre Jun 29 19:35:20 but it's more secure now (read, more difficult) Jun 29 19:36:43 and unlike apple, they didn't remove or erase, (or discourage really) the homebrew apps already on the phones Jun 29 19:39:58 i lost my n810 on an alaskan cruise.. =( Jun 29 19:40:16 * Mousey cries and vows to lurk until he gets another one Jun 29 19:44:14 What is "more secure" when applied to a cell phone? Jun 29 19:44:47 RST38h, oh it autoinstalled native apps if you put them in an email and sent it to the phone Jun 29 19:44:50 or something like that Jun 29 19:44:51 They are not securing you against some crooks, they are securing THEIR PHONE against YOU. Jun 29 19:45:16 Shadow: Really? That sound almost like the infamous G1 bug =) Jun 29 19:51:13 Shadow: BTW, looks like Google has finally broken and allowed native apps on Android Jun 29 19:51:43 That's not what they're doing Jun 29 19:52:34 Native libraries and/or code, AIUI Jun 29 19:52:44 lbt: 4.5.2 with finger scrolling is really slow Jun 29 19:53:00 Although JNI can go both ways, so even if the APIs aren't properly "supported" people'll be able to use them Jun 29 19:53:16 I understood it as writing parts of your program in C/C++, but not being able to call native libraries from it Jun 29 19:53:24 basically just compute Jun 29 19:58:05 Ah, you get libc, libm, JNI, libz and liblog :-) Jun 29 19:58:37 "Your application will be more complicated, have reduced compatibility, have no access to framework APIs, and be harder to debug. That said, some applications that have self-contained, CPU-intensive operations that don't allocate much memory may still benefit from increased performance and the ability to reuse existing code. Some examples are signal processing, intensive physics simulations, and some kinds of data processing." Jun 29 19:58:44 libm? Luxury itself. Jun 29 19:58:50 indeed :-) Jun 29 20:00:30 Shadow: That is pretty much a hole to native apps Jun 29 20:01:17 I/O is missing :-) Jun 29 20:01:20 Shadow: as long as it lets you open /dev/fb* and /dev/input*, you are done Jun 29 20:01:25 "The EU Commission has welcomed the mobile industry's commitment to using a single charging standard, only 18 months after the industry agreed it and two years after the Chinese government mandated it." Jun 29 20:01:26 Shadow: libc is there Jun 29 20:01:43 yeah if you can get to the devices.. Jun 29 20:01:51 Shadow: And the single European charger plug standard is.... Jun 29 20:01:59 ---==* SCART! *==--- Jun 29 20:01:59 MicroUSB! Jun 29 20:02:31 * ShadowJK throws his 10metre scart cable in RST38h's face Jun 29 20:02:44 oh oops, didn't mean to crush your head :o Jun 29 20:02:50 * RST38h waits for everyone Jun 29 20:03:50 to finish throwing up that is Jun 29 20:04:28 "The fact that few people have heard of Micro-USB (not to be confused with Mini-USB) doesn’t seem to bother anyone, but having a standard is to be applauded even if it's one that no one is presently using." Jun 29 20:04:53 lies, my new nokia phone charges through microusb! Jun 29 20:05:00 atleast the manual said it would Jun 29 20:05:04 I haven't actually tried Jun 29 20:05:35 "t's good to see Apple finally joining the throng, but one has to wonder why it's all taking so long and if punters will be happy with the longer charging times that the use of USB demands." Jun 29 20:06:04 wrong. you can use a dedicated power supply that pumps more juuice over usb Jun 29 20:06:05 I guess that's why nokia kept their standard 2.5mm plug in addition to microusb charging Jun 29 20:06:16 they better reduce the power consume of the phones. Jun 29 20:06:20 see Moto RAZR for example Jun 29 20:06:42 johnsq: Not gonna happen, unless you are willing to put up with a 60MHz ARM9 and a little b/w LCD Jun 29 20:06:52 Yeah but there are 3 incompatible standards on how to negotiate/signal high current a vailability Jun 29 20:07:19 Shadow: It looks straightforward to me Jun 29 20:07:46 Shadow: Decrease the current until voltage starts falling, as soon as it falls to 5V-epsilon, stop Jun 29 20:07:48 RST38h: it looks so, but I want 10h use time :) Jun 29 20:07:49 Mind, Openmoko freerunner can't even negotiate higher current than 100mA if you run it empty ;p Jun 29 20:07:58 RST38h, that fails Jun 29 20:08:00 s/decrease/increase Jun 29 20:08:15 johnsq: talking that much is unhealthy Jun 29 20:08:35 RST38h: its not only talking, internet + games + ... Jun 29 20:08:39 Let us not remember Openmoko... :) Jun 29 20:09:15 johnsq: these all lead to different power usage figures Jun 29 20:09:25 * ShadowJK finds himself with more microusb cables than he uses Jun 29 20:15:53 pupnik: (dunno if you got it before) http://qwerty12.qole.org/Vdown/ Jun 29 20:16:10 ty Jun 29 20:17:15 exciting :) Jun 29 20:26:13 ty qwerty12_N810 8nstalls fine Jun 29 20:26:29 cool :) Jun 29 20:26:54 seems to also work with some foreign-hosted video Jun 29 20:27:13 sd card full constantly now Jun 29 20:30:01 MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
