**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Apr 11 02:59:56 2010 Apr 11 05:54:35 hey hey Apr 11 06:57:44 ny one working on sunday here :) Apr 11 06:57:59 working? no Apr 11 07:06:07 so i find that repos are borked for installation of firefox on meego chroot Apr 11 07:06:19 http://pastebin.com/cHJ6DM8b Apr 11 07:35:40 impressive, virtualbox built its kernel module for fedora 12, and somehow it's in the wrong module format... Apr 11 07:48:19 oh nice, fedora default time for the grub menu is zero Apr 11 08:49:38 is there a proper git repo of the meego kernel Apr 11 08:50:23 ie one that uses git branches and doesn't have diffs to patches Apr 11 09:41:03 #define egdeClass edgeClass Apr 11 09:41:08 * CosmoHill wonders if that''s good or bad Apr 11 09:46:41 it doesn't do anythin Apr 11 09:50:46 look at the first 3 letters Apr 11 10:14:46 * CosmoHill stabs pointers Apr 11 10:14:50 fucking one way bastards Apr 11 10:42:17 http://black-flag.co.uk/wordpress/2010/04/11/c-aggregation-assocation/ Apr 11 11:14:31 anyone wanna help me with the "this" keyword in c++? Apr 11 11:18:10 sure CosmoHIll Apr 11 11:19:14 this keyword points to current object in C++ Apr 11 11:20:40 bool exitClass::setCommand(command) Apr 11 11:20:41 { command = this.command; } Apr 11 11:20:48 this is a pointer Apr 11 11:21:14 is that right? Apr 11 11:21:21 no, it's totally wrong. Apr 11 11:21:41 1) you don't have a type for the argument Apr 11 11:22:04 2) the assignment is wrong way Apr 11 11:22:15 3) this is a pointer, i.e. use ->, not . Apr 11 11:22:38 dammit, I was thinking of java >.< Apr 11 11:22:51 thank you very much inz :) Apr 11 11:23:01 * CosmoHill gives inz a cookie Apr 11 11:23:27 No need, always fun to point mistakes by other people Apr 11 11:23:47 bool exitClass::setCommand(string command) Apr 11 11:23:47 { Apr 11 11:23:47 this->command = command; Apr 11 11:23:47 } Apr 11 11:24:00 yesh, that seems corerct. Apr 11 11:24:01 that looks ok to me Apr 11 11:24:02 :D Apr 11 11:26:28 inz: if the parameter would have been a reference the assignement order theoretically could have made sense :P Apr 11 11:27:01 anders, yes, but then it would be a getter, not setter Apr 11 11:27:23 anders, although it would still make sense in a way, one should not misuse commonly used terms Apr 11 11:27:44 is there a way to do "if command = 1, 2 or 3 then do this? Apr 11 11:27:52 like Apr 11 11:28:03 if( command == 1 || 2 || 3) Apr 11 11:28:16 not really, you have to repeat the command == part Apr 11 11:28:22 thought so Apr 11 11:28:47 I'll use a switch, should be easier Apr 11 11:28:58 Doesn't work for strings though Apr 11 11:29:13 back to the if statment Apr 11 11:30:32 You can use switch, if you map your commands to an enum Apr 11 11:32:03 if((command == "North") || (command == "South") || (command == "East") || (command == "West")) Apr 11 11:35:09 Cosmo, You fall into a bottomless pit. Apr 11 11:35:33 Try again? (Y/n) : Apr 11 11:36:31 i've had so many problems with my assignment I've started again Apr 11 11:37:15 inz: I may have to reference that little bit about 'this' in my assignment, is that okay? Apr 11 11:40:49 Cosmo, reference what little bit? Apr 11 11:41:20 between 12:20 and 12:23 Apr 11 11:41:29 (it's 12:41 for me atm) Apr 11 11:41:53 pretty much copy and paste the IRC log into the end of my assignment and say I listened to you Apr 11 11:45:18 Cosmo, I have no problems with it, no need to credit me on it. Apr 11 11:45:41 I'll see how many references I'll have by the end Apr 11 11:45:45 :) Apr 11 11:46:04 What's the "wikipedia policy" at your insitute? Apr 11 11:46:17 I don't know Apr 11 11:46:23 don't even know if we have one Apr 11 11:46:35 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B_classes#The_this_keyword Apr 11 11:47:54 In our univeristy it pretty much changes course-to-course, others allow, or even suggest, using wikipedia, others say one shouldn't use it Apr 11 11:48:19 I did look on wikipedia but didn't understand it Apr 11 11:54:41 hello guys Apr 11 12:08:52 no wonder my program doesn't work, I spelt success three different ways in the same function Apr 11 14:07:25 Heya meego Apr 11 16:09:15 hi Apr 11 16:09:35 anyone tryied meego + kde? Apr 11 16:13:47 another question: If I create some packages, how can I manage to push them into the main meego archive? Apr 11 16:15:13 not yet decided, i think Apr 11 16:15:54 thiago_home: I think that you're talking about the second one... and the first one? Apr 11 16:16:10 yes, the second one Apr 11 17:02:45 ? Apr 11 17:04:39 any one having problems installing firefox from extra-devel repo on meego chroot?? Apr 11 17:23:49 amjad: which repo are you talking about? Apr 11 17:27:41 fale: http://pastebin.com/jtxbMa4U Apr 11 17:27:53 thats the error i get while installing firefox Apr 11 17:28:44 amjad: the problem is that the package system-bookmarks that is required by the firefox package is not available Apr 11 17:29:00 exactly, so why is it not in the repo Apr 11 17:29:50 amjad: or is a dependency that is not needed in reality, or the person who packaged firefox forgot about it Apr 11 17:30:16 amjad: in any case, this is the reason for which that repo is called devel, things can be broken ;) Apr 11 17:30:36 ok i have build it for me and installed it without that dependency Apr 11 17:31:20 amjad: then, probably, the dev who did that package imported the spec file from another distro and forgot to remove that dependency ;) Apr 11 17:31:55 but really if you are targetin g netbooks the firefox package should be in core os packages not in extra-devel Apr 11 17:33:27 amjad: all packages are in extra-devel in the first period and after they move toward a stable repo ;) in any case, firefox is not the only browser ;) Apr 11 17:34:28 but ff is the most famous browser in open source world Apr 11 17:35:20 amjad: that's true, but is not very light ;) Apr 11 17:35:47 ff is moving strongly towards big pile of shit Apr 11 17:35:58 together with thunderbird Apr 11 17:36:10 how so? Apr 11 17:36:17 Surfa: I think all the mozilla products are moving in the same direction Apr 11 17:36:37 fale, sadly yes Apr 11 17:36:44 just note here, i Apr 11 17:37:05 m still using ff and tb, but continuoysly considering options.. Apr 11 17:37:30 Surfa: I have found very good chromium (git nightly) Apr 11 17:37:46 latest thunderbird is pretty much at the level of uselesness Apr 11 17:38:04 until chrome's JS engine has the right hooks for noscript and a proper adblock... Apr 11 17:38:21 fale, chrome and chromium are quite fine, but lacking plugins that i'd like to use Apr 11 17:39:07 Surfa: yeah I know, they are still not ready for a lot of people, but I think they can be a very good option really soon for the biggest part of the people Apr 11 17:39:07 but there aren't that good email programs, so i'n strongly considering using the outlook for my personal emails too :) Apr 11 17:39:30 Surfa: are you on win? Apr 11 17:39:47 question?? Apr 11 17:39:49 win7 yes Apr 11 17:39:56 does meego need any package maintainer Apr 11 17:40:04 or os x, or linux.. depends on which computer i'm using Apr 11 17:40:49 Surfa: I see ;) Apr 11 17:41:07 amjad: I guess yes, I read something about it in the wiki Apr 11 17:41:44 i was the package maintainer for yellow dog linux Apr 11 17:42:20 fale, but i actually like win7 the best at the moment :) Apr 11 17:42:30 Surfa: I see ;) Apr 11 18:04:57 Hum, OpenPrinting project guy wants me to talk about MeeGo's printing capabilities in SF. . . . Apr 11 18:06:31 should be short+sweet GeneralAntilles :) Apr 11 18:07:02 GeneralAntilles: Obviously you're the expert on the matter... Apr 11 18:10:00 Jaffa, clearly. Apr 11 18:10:05 lbt, i.e., none? ;) Apr 11 18:10:33 lpr is there I think Apr 11 18:17:45 lbt: how can i become pkg maintainer of meego?? Apr 11 18:18:30 amjad: send patches to the current maintainer until they trust you enough :) Apr 11 18:19:32 can previous experience with RPM based distro create trust :) Apr 11 18:26:40 work creates trust Apr 11 18:28:48 :) Apr 11 18:35:15 * GAN900 hears palm greasing does, too. Apr 11 18:35:54 thiago_home, you wouldn't happen to know who I should direct this OpenPrinting guy to, would you? Apr 11 18:36:26 about what? Apr 11 18:38:23 printing in MeeGo Apr 11 18:38:58 He wants somebody in to talk to for the LF summit Apr 11 18:47:31 Do we have a list of attendees on a wiki anywhere? Apr 11 19:13:53 GAN900: no idea Apr 11 19:14:04 as for Qt printing, the responsible people won't be present Apr 11 19:14:29 thiago_home, OK, thanks. Apr 11 21:32:32 poke Apr 11 21:34:01 * CosmoHill pokes luke-jr Apr 11 21:34:29 can't find any docs on how to build MeeGo... Apr 11 21:40:17 you mean download the RPMs and install them? Apr 11 21:40:21 or compile them yourself? Apr 11 21:42:37 CosmoHill: compile the base OS from scratch Apr 11 21:42:56 to begin porting to a new platform Apr 11 21:43:16 I think you'd basically have to download the src.rpm files and recompile them Apr 11 21:43:38 :/ Apr 11 21:43:53 what about these .ks files? Apr 11 21:44:19 i think they are to make images from the pre-compiled rpms Apr 11 21:44:32 what platform are you thinking of? Apr 11 21:45:21 CosmoHill: I'm doing the EFIKA MX port Apr 11 21:45:39 I've not heard of it Apr 11 21:45:50 based on Freescale i.MX515 Apr 11 21:45:54 a Cortex A8 Apr 11 21:45:57 ooo Apr 11 21:46:19 have you ported anything else to that arch? Apr 11 21:46:34 well, I *was* working on Mer, until it got superceded by Nokia to MeeGo ... Apr 11 21:46:50 I'll take that as a bitter yes Apr 11 21:47:04 ;) Apr 11 21:47:15 I don't especially care for either platform; I use Gentoo Apr 11 21:47:38 Mer was GTK-centric, which I didn't like; MeeGo switches it to Qt, but uses RPM :( Apr 11 21:48:14 well the RPM should be written for both ARM and x86 Apr 11 21:48:22 the Cortex is ARM right? Apr 11 21:50:10 Cortex-A8 is ARM Apr 11 21:50:16 it's the one powering the N900 too Apr 11 21:50:30 so no porting will be required? Apr 11 21:50:39 no Apr 11 21:50:46 dammit Apr 11 21:52:04 ... Apr 11 21:52:29 other than drivers, which is what I was expecting anyway Apr 11 21:53:07 should just be able to recompile the src.rpm files for that arch Apr 11 22:08:04 inventory.hpp:9: error: ‘string’ does not name a type >.< Apr 11 22:24:53 Anyone in SF south bay looking to carpool for ELC? Apr 11 22:25:35 that's never something I've head on IRC before Apr 11 22:25:38 heard* Apr 11 23:18:21 bye bye Apr 12 00:49:23 whats the user/password for the netbook usb image ? Apr 12 00:57:19 meego Apr 12 01:00:40 tried meego/meego , meego/password , meego/(blank) Apr 12 01:29:49 hcarrega: tried root/moblin ?
