**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Jul 01 02:59:57 2011 Jul 01 05:00:21 bash`afk: mount the initrd, copy the dir somewhere else, umount, edit and recreate the initrd from the edited copy. Something like steps 4, 5 and 8 from http://ioctl.org/unix/debian/x4100 (sorry I'm in a hurry and couldn't find a better link) Jul 01 05:07:02 ooh... class 10 card... let's see how much that helps... Jul 01 06:00:01 Morning Jul 01 06:00:21 morrning Jul 01 06:01:20 Morinker Jul 01 08:27:17 morning #meego \o Jul 01 08:29:30 good morning lcuk Jul 01 08:35:16 thiago, do you know anything about updated tablet packages? Jul 01 08:36:59 can anyone confirm if the n950 requires a regular sim card or a microsim card? Jul 01 08:37:58 lcuk: nope Jul 01 08:38:06 ieatlint: regular Jul 01 08:38:41 cool, thanks Jul 01 09:11:42 thiago, you mentioned last night that n950 has 10 finger touch Jul 01 09:12:19 do the touch reports reduce in frequency as more fingers added Jul 01 09:12:28 i didn't know it had fingers Jul 01 09:12:31 on the ideapad, the touch sensor interleaves reports Jul 01 09:12:40 lcuk: I don't know Jul 01 09:12:52 so that if you use 2 fingers there are only half as many mouse reports Jul 01 09:12:58 shall be tested then Jul 01 09:13:19 not 11 finger touch? I'm disappointed Jul 01 09:13:42 what updated tablet packages? Jul 01 09:13:58 lcuk: I don't think so Jul 01 09:14:21 thiago, :D good stuff Jul 01 09:14:33 you mean devel:ux tablet packages? Jul 01 09:14:51 vvaltone, in a mail last night I saw it mentioned Jul 01 09:15:26 Hello! Jul 01 09:15:39 lcuk: it's proper hardware with proper drivers, I think Jul 01 09:15:58 thiago, the ideapad is proper hardware with proper drivers too! Jul 01 09:16:00 lcuk, a ml mail? Jul 01 09:16:24 yes vvaltone on meego-packaging Jul 01 09:17:07 http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-packaging/2011-June/247753.html Jul 01 09:17:31 it was araujo talking about the maliit packaging after meegotouch removal Jul 01 09:18:27 Hi Jul 01 09:18:35 I have a little question Jul 01 09:18:38 about meego for netbooks... Jul 01 09:18:44 but I was wondering where the tablet stuff was published since developers are focusing upon it Jul 01 09:18:57 hello Jul 01 09:19:12 it is possible to turn off calendar and task from Myzone panel__ Jul 01 09:19:19 ? Jul 01 09:19:33 lcuk, unless it's in a image, it's either on build.meego.com/download.meego.com or the git repos I guess Jul 01 09:21:40 Ok, I found it ;) Jul 01 09:30:51 morning lardman Jul 01 09:31:49 morning lcuk Jul 01 09:31:53 how's everyone? Jul 01 09:33:02 Found an old windows mobile device today :) Jul 01 09:33:18 peaceful :) Luke went to his Prom last night, Finn is sleeping happily - he managed 5 hours last night Jul 01 09:33:43 cool :) Jul 01 09:34:04 * lcuk even found time to play football again with Jake :D Jul 01 09:34:24 Just bought a cot Jul 01 09:34:34 we have a great one from John Lewis Jul 01 09:36:26 I've no idea where Holly bought this one, looks nice though Jul 01 09:51:51 sjgadsby: ping Jul 01 09:59:06 sjgadsby: re your wallet idea, what do you do by way of storage of the codes? I'm happy to write a plugin for mBarcode to allow you to scan the cards and save to your db so that users can do everything on the device. Jul 01 10:02:05 * lardman has been reading some of the DDP entries Jul 01 10:04:47 Is there a list? Jul 01 10:04:51 Oh - just for approved Jul 01 10:05:08 yeah Jul 01 10:11:00 lardman, where is the list? Jul 01 10:11:51 just the standard list here: http://wiki.meego.com/Community_Office/Community_device_program/Nokia Jul 01 10:11:54 Venemo, your observation about meego uxes is just because they are not yet ready and are just being formulated and evolved Jul 01 10:12:16 lcuk, sure. that is why I say the word "yet" when I talk about them :) Jul 01 10:13:08 lcuk, I have great hopes that one day Intel's UX will be usable on phone screen sizes Jul 01 10:13:48 ahhh if i was a coder ..... :( Jul 01 10:14:03 pfft Jul 01 10:14:09 I don't really like the meego-ux-components Jul 01 10:14:12 But meh Jul 01 10:14:13 :) Jul 01 10:41:15 on the Nokia Developer site, is there any way to know where on the site I see my Launchpad details and even https://www.developer.nokia.com/Profile/premium_registration.xhtml Jul 01 10:41:44 I filled out the form but cannot find any mention of it on my developer profile so wondering Jul 01 10:41:45 hey guys Jul 01 10:41:50 where can i find quim gil? Jul 01 10:42:19 any1 here from nokia Jul 01 10:42:30 seif_: look for a big stack of n950 applications, and tons of emails. i bet his somewhere in between Jul 01 10:42:32 seif_: qgil is sleeping right now Jul 01 10:42:42 sandst1, well i got accepted Jul 01 10:42:49 lcuk: go to setting, on the right there is developer profile Jul 01 10:42:53 settings* Jul 01 10:42:58 but the issue is i cant get into Jul 01 10:42:58 https://www.developer.nokia.com/Profile/Join_Program.xhtml?programName=Launchpad%20for%20individuals Jul 01 10:43:01 it tells me Jul 01 10:43:02 lcuk: that is the page Jul 01 10:43:07 There is an existing membership application already for this program. The applicant will be notified by e-mail once the membership application has been reviewed. Jul 01 10:43:11 lcuk: https://www.developer.nokia.com/Profile/premium_profile.xhtml Jul 01 10:43:32 seif_: well that means you've already applied to Launchpad before Jul 01 10:43:38 yeah Jul 01 10:43:43 so how do i continue Jul 01 10:43:48 where do i send my "ID" too Jul 01 10:43:50 to? Jul 01 10:43:52 hiemanshu, ok thanks, so if it says file not found it means I did not complete it Jul 01 10:43:54 sandst1, ^ Jul 01 10:44:03 seif_: you need to talk to someone from Nokia. This channel can't help you... Jul 01 10:44:16 lcuk: well yes Jul 01 10:44:19 thiago, or should i create a new account ? Jul 01 10:44:20 seif_: Reply to the ACCEPTED mail you got from quim with your ID Jul 01 10:44:42 seif_: and about Launchpad, quoting Quim from MeeGo forums: "Don't get nervous about Launchpad now. I'm sending your usernames to Nokia Developer as part of this meego.com DDP, and this puts you in the fast lane." Jul 01 10:44:47 seif_: go to https://www.developer.nokia.com/Profile/premium_profile.xhtml, look for the AID-******* something on the left side, reply to qgil with that and your unsername Jul 01 10:44:51 username* Jul 01 10:45:16 seif_: and then wait Jul 01 10:46:56 ahh yes hiemanshu thanks Jul 01 10:52:58 hiemanshu, done and done Jul 01 10:53:00 thanks alot Jul 01 10:53:01 :) Jul 01 10:53:21 he emailed me yesterday and I regret sending such a verbose email now you point out that he's probably very busy Jul 01 10:54:02 even my application wasn't really verbose, instead I had soemthing working and people testing it already for the N9/N950 Jul 01 10:54:03 I probably should have just said yes I'll open source the app I'm working on rather that a continued sucking up email with a description of all the projects I might be able to work on :-/ Jul 01 10:59:26 I just said, "These projects I'm porting from M5", "This is the stuff I've done for maemo", "This is what I do for meego", kthxbye Jul 01 10:59:31 Mine was very short Jul 01 11:03:27 alterego, morning \o Jul 01 11:04:28 Hello :) Jul 01 11:04:32 How are you today lcuk ? Jul 01 11:06:04 lcuk, how's the new baby? :) Jul 01 11:06:30 alterego, Venemo - good but tired! Jul 01 11:06:59 :) Jul 01 11:07:18 lcuk :) Jul 01 11:09:53 alterego: yup, about the same here Jul 01 11:10:00 lcuk: pics or it didn't happen :P Jul 01 11:10:05 * hiemanshu runs Jul 01 11:11:17 Think I might do some chores, bbiab Jul 01 11:12:52 lcuk, I got so lucky :) it turned out that many people had the same idea as myself for Harmattan, so we began to collaborate and brainstorm about it together Jul 01 11:13:07 Venemo, :D good thing Jul 01 11:13:22 where is this collaboration happening? Jul 01 11:13:39 lcuk, http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=3711 Jul 01 11:14:13 Venemo, I have seen many transportation ideas Jul 01 11:14:22 Venemo: maybe you can add India to it, google maps already does it though Jul 01 11:14:30 one of the first things I needed in liqbase was a map of the Berlin metro Jul 01 11:26:41 Venemo, nicely laid out pages Jul 01 11:26:55 lcuk, what do you mean? Jul 01 11:28:57 your meego profile pages and harmattanplans Jul 01 11:29:12 ah, that :) Jul 01 11:29:20 thank you lcuk :) Jul 01 11:29:34 what do you think about the contents of them? Jul 01 11:35:50 Venemo, great actually! Jul 01 11:37:22 thank you lcuk :) Jul 01 11:55:51 Jaffa, I'd be interested to hear, how would you apply this terminology to the context of the transport app? http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?p=24246&postcount=23 Jul 01 11:58:55 Venemo: transport app eh? Would it be able to use that format that google got public transport providers to output? would be nice to not need to go to the web to find public transport routes Jul 01 11:59:38 pabs3, sure, if someone implements a provider that reads from google's web service Jul 01 12:01:13 Venemo: I think you misunderstand. the data is exported on the web by the public transport authorities. I was wondering if your app would consume that data and do routing based on it Jul 01 12:01:39 http://code.google.com/transit/spec/transit_feed_specification.html Jul 01 12:01:52 pabs3, yeah, you misunderstood too Jul 01 12:02:01 http://code.google.com/p/googletransitdatafeed/wiki/PublicFeeds Jul 01 12:02:07 oh? Jul 01 12:02:26 pabs3, the app will have an abstract structure and could consume any feed/webservice for which someone writes an implementation (be it Google or other) Jul 01 12:03:05 pabs3, this feed you gave links to looks nice, so I may look into getting it there too :) Jul 01 12:03:29 so do you plan to it leave the routing up to the web service? or do it in the app? Jul 01 12:03:38 cool :) Jul 01 12:03:44 I don't have specific plans for routing, yet Jul 01 12:04:03 the app is still on the sketching board, so any ideas are welcome :) Jul 01 12:04:44 we aim for a simple UI, eg. the user says that "i want to go from here to there" and the app displays whatever results it can find. Jul 01 12:05:04 routing is a good idea Jul 01 12:05:10 ok. I'd definitely like support for downloading/caching GTFS feeds and routing based on that Jul 01 12:05:27 and maybe discover of those feeds via that wiki page Jul 01 12:05:35 s/discover/discovery/ Jul 01 12:05:36 pabs3 meant: and maybe discovery of those feeds via that wiki page Jul 01 12:05:46 pabs3, why don't you add this idea to the thread? Jul 01 12:06:00 will do Jul 01 12:06:29 * Venemo is in the process of making a wiki page for the app Jul 01 12:06:43 also, the goal is to make whatever web service(s) we use transparent to the end user Jul 01 12:08:45 Venemo: added a post Jul 01 12:10:25 thank you pabs3 :) Jul 01 12:11:48 * pabs3 guesses there isn't enough data in openstreetmap for this sort of thing Jul 01 12:12:34 pabs3, I'm planning on using the Qt Mobility maps API Jul 01 12:13:54 ok Jul 01 12:25:19 lcuk, what's your opinion on http://wiki.meego.com/TransportApp/UserExperience ? Jul 01 12:26:44 Venemo, hard to read because image is large and my screen only sends over slow data, hold on Jul 01 12:27:57 Venemo, the wireframe specified has already a number of people in different countries collaborating as you say Jul 01 12:28:17 lcuk, well, none of those people have started thinking GUI yet. Jul 01 12:28:28 things like live bus positions are very related to which country/city is being used Jul 01 12:28:32 lcuk, so I decided to put together a sketch and put it up for discussion Jul 01 12:28:42 indeed :) sketching is always good Jul 01 12:29:07 read http://wiki.meego.com/TransportApp#Under_the_hood if you're interested in how we're going to deal with many different web services Jul 01 12:32:09 the sketch itself is very basic and contains the features which could be used as the basis for the first milestone Jul 01 12:32:13 let's see what the others say Jul 01 12:32:20 also, let's see how serious are they about this project Jul 01 12:33:36 wow, a public transport app for MeeGo, that sounds GREAT Jul 01 12:33:47 especially once someone (e,.g. me) backports it to Fremantle :) Jul 01 12:34:04 jonwil, I don't see why we couldn't target Fremantle as well from start Jul 01 12:34:17 sounds GREAT Jul 01 12:34:27 of course, any contribution is welcome :) Jul 01 12:34:34 What I need is an app that can consume google transit data and do routing on it Jul 01 12:34:38 That would make my life GREAT Jul 01 12:34:43 nah, I'm going to get some luch, brb :) Jul 01 12:34:46 as my transit operator publishes GTFS data Jul 01 12:34:56 wow the n900-ce has nice repsosiveness again :D Jul 01 12:35:08 jonwil, http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=3711&page=4 and http://wiki.meego.com/TransportApp Jul 01 12:35:34 N9 will wipe the floor with iPhone 5. Jul 01 12:36:26 I've been testing N950 and the device just rocks. Sure, there are a few regressions from N900, but still it works fluently, looks great and so totally pwns any existing phones... Jul 01 12:38:07 Weighs much less than N900 and is much thinner even though it has qwerty and same battery capacity. The display (LCD) has good contrast ratio and my only gripe is that it has capacitive rather than resistive touch screen. Jul 01 12:39:18 Of course Elop could sabotage it. Wrong public statements about the device or lack of marketing could make it fail. Jul 01 12:40:01 Tronic: like the fact that he killed the project and went with windows :( Jul 01 12:40:36 Technically he didn't, even though we know he did in practice (but nothing that couldn't be reversed yet). Jul 01 12:41:47 I only wonder why the analysts keep being so wrong, keeping their eyes on WP7 only. That system is a complete and utter failure. It could barely compete with the first iPhone. Jul 01 12:42:13 I doubt that Mango manages to bring it that much forward. Jul 01 12:42:40 With all that Android revenue, WP7 has a bright future ;) Jul 01 12:43:09 E.g. considering http://html5test.com/ Mango's browser gets raped by all the other mobile browsers while N950 (N9) leads very clearly. Jul 01 12:44:30 Mango renders web correctly while the rest renders it with mistakes! Jul 01 12:48:23 Tronic: grob & qtwebkit developers thank you Jul 01 12:56:13 Hey DawnFoster Jul 01 13:02:03 hey alterego Jul 01 13:03:04 morning DawnFoster :) Jul 01 13:03:41 hey lcuk Jul 01 13:04:06 morning Damion3 Jul 01 13:04:09 d'oh Jul 01 13:04:20 curst you tab completion Jul 01 13:04:26 offs Jul 01 13:04:33 * slaine tries again Jul 01 13:04:37 Morning DawnFoster Jul 01 13:05:10 :) Jul 01 13:06:46 slaine: morning Jul 01 13:06:57 :) Jul 01 13:09:15 oh Jul 01 13:09:21 * Damion3 feels neglected now Jul 01 13:09:27 I was somebodies tab complete mistake Jul 01 13:09:54 Damion3: aren't we all Jul 01 13:12:20 I think neglected is better than being sat on a broken down bus in rural Cambs. :-) Jul 01 13:23:17 lardman: I haven't gotten as far as storing anything yet as I'm just learning Qt. I'll take a look at mBarcode. Jul 01 13:23:47 sjgadsby: just a thought for how users can populate your app's database using the device only Jul 01 13:25:17 lardman: I that's my hope. If I can shake this sinus infection, I'll be trying to get some coding done this weekend, and I'll look at mBarcode then. Right now, my head is in a thick fog though. Jul 01 13:26:05 np, well I can do the mBarcode stuff, write a plugin etc. that will pass the data across Jul 01 13:26:13 anyway hope you're feeling better soon! :) Jul 01 13:37:20 which Qt api would be best to use to check a website for updates? Jul 01 13:37:31 ie to keep data in sync Jul 01 13:39:07 lcuk, depends. what would be the purpose of such a thing? Jul 01 13:39:32 diary sync Jul 01 13:39:57 to let me write entries on one device and have them arrive on the other Jul 01 13:40:02 house->mobile etc Jul 01 13:40:21 mhm Jul 01 13:40:39 so you have a web service with which you can sync all them? Jul 01 13:40:44 yes Jul 01 13:41:02 i created that a couple of years ago Jul 01 13:41:07 see the QtNetwork module and the QNetworkAccessManager class Jul 01 13:41:28 thanks Jul 01 13:42:06 QNetworkAccessManager can do GET and POST and other HTTP operations Jul 01 13:43:01 yeah Venemo I am reading now \o Jul 01 13:43:30 lcuk, if you tell me more about what kind of web service it is, I could help you more :) Jul 01 13:44:14 Venemo, qt build of liqcalendar Jul 01 13:44:48 I'm interested in the web service Jul 01 13:47:08 Venemo, it was something I started to setup a long time ago http://liqbase.net/liqbase_net_preview.png Jul 01 13:47:34 nice Jul 01 13:47:38 but my skills at development were poor and I did not know how to progress it Jul 01 13:49:01 the pieces are all there though and will be usable to get sync for calendar diary etc working across maemo meego symbian devices :) Jul 01 13:49:26 * lcuk also considered a html5 web sketch editor too Jul 01 13:49:34 so that windows phone could be included :) Jul 01 13:50:00 lcuk: you did liqtorch? Jul 01 13:50:09 Damion3, :) yes Jul 01 13:50:31 I have a line added to the shell wrapper that starts it which runs a sudo echo 255 in to /sys something to make the screen bright Jul 01 13:50:46 you might want it Jul 01 13:51:09 but more importantly can you get rid of the midway screen with the green button? I only need to start the app and quit the app. Jul 01 13:51:16 Damion3, of course, but I never needed more than what was there Jul 01 13:51:22 of course that would be possible :) Jul 01 13:51:58 Damion3, on my ideapad it lights up the entire room! Jul 01 13:55:02 I was going to try and do it with just spawning an osso-xterm with all white text Jul 01 13:55:16 but your app was the easiest way rto get a fully plain white full screen Jul 01 13:56:13 you need to be able to sudo echo 255 >/sys/class/backlight/acx565akm/brightness Jul 01 13:57:52 probably want to read what it was before. Annoyingly this means having to edit the sudo stuff in your .deb to handle it. Come to think of it it's probably possible using dbus to do it properly. Jul 01 14:05:57 Damion3, it would indeed be better to use the dbus api Jul 01 14:07:41 if it's exposed via that Jul 01 14:07:45 ooooh CONGRATULATIONS! Jul 01 14:07:55 heh Jul 01 14:08:02 thank you Jul 01 14:09:09 sorry I mean me Jul 01 14:09:22 in that I have an email with that wording in it :) Jul 01 14:09:34 * lcuk has been hearing that a lot last few days Jul 01 14:17:51 hi, is it possible to install meego on any kind of tablet with an arm processor? is there a hw list on the site (I couldn't find)? Jul 01 14:18:43 dantti, http://wiki.meego.com/Devices Jul 01 14:18:44 dantti: best supported is the n900 which is not exactly a tablet... Jul 01 14:19:22 bbiab Jul 01 14:19:42 dantti: then there are some builds floating around for various devices. archos tablets with TI3430 and TI3630. Tegra tablets. nothing is officially supported in any way though Jul 01 14:20:11 dm8tbr: do you know dealextreme? is there some cheap tablet that can run it? Jul 01 14:21:17 I have a client that would probably buy some tablets to run my app, which is made in qt so afaik meego would be best over android... Jul 01 14:22:24 errrrr, no Jul 01 14:22:29 dantti: select a hardware and then do the work to make it run Jul 01 14:24:38 hey thiago, well I have no idea how to make it work on different archs, is it too hard ? Jul 01 14:25:19 I don't know either Jul 01 14:25:24 dantti: also check matthew garret's tablet GPL compliance list, otherwise drivers may be problematic Jul 01 14:25:26 it's easier if you have support from the manufacturer Jul 01 14:26:43 pabs3: where do I find that? Jul 01 14:27:06 http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/android_tablets/ Jul 01 14:28:42 thanks Jul 01 14:28:44 is the wiki login problem a known issue? Jul 01 14:41:31 urghhhhh realisation... 69 people... 18 devices :( Jul 01 14:41:55 :/ Jul 01 14:42:38 I've asked for a reconsideration of my refusal on the grounds that they might not have used the most up to date version of my project page. But it's looking unlikely. Jul 01 14:43:01 A bit more than 250 devices would have gotten in a significant number more productive devs I think. Jul 01 14:43:07 you got refused? eek that does not bode well for me Jul 01 14:43:13 * TSCHAKeee hugs SpeedEvil Jul 01 14:43:19 SpeedEvil: 251 devices? Jul 01 14:43:25 My application was crap. Jul 01 14:43:29 http://wiki.meego.com/User_talk:Speedevil/Projects Jul 01 14:43:34 In terms of apps Jul 01 14:44:04 It was really a platform application with some apps tacked thiny to the top as disguise. Jul 01 14:44:05 a hell of alot better then mine! Jul 01 14:44:39 wait till you see mine :P Jul 01 14:44:42 I needed to write it up anyway for other applications. Jul 01 14:45:10 so I am expecting the list will be done today? Jul 01 14:45:38 Well - I'd guess they'll do one more winnowing, then maybe pick the winners out of a hat. Jul 01 14:45:52 how many applications were there? Jul 01 14:46:03 I think it was 680 Jul 01 14:46:07 Damion3: 600-ish Jul 01 14:46:08 Or so Jul 01 14:46:10 I doubt there are more than 500 people who are THAT fanatical, surely they could have given phones to all of them Jul 01 14:46:11 or 608 Jul 01 14:46:15 something like that. Jul 01 14:46:40 SpeedEvil: or maybe waiting for the rebutals from people? Jul 01 14:46:42 how many are going to corporations? I mean how many devices is it rumoured actually exist? Jul 01 14:46:45 ~180 or so were totally out of spec - applying as commercial devs. Jul 01 14:46:54 Damion3: Interesting question. Jul 01 14:47:28 noobmonk3y: Care to share your project page? Jul 01 14:47:31 i heard nokia produced ~10k N950 and then stopped the productio Jul 01 14:47:42 lol would rather people didn't laught at it! :) Jul 01 14:47:49 PM if you want. :) Jul 01 14:48:13 no proposal for a fart app yet ? Jul 01 14:48:13 My first N950 blog entry (use Google Translate or something) http://tronic.puheenvuoro.uusisuomi.fi/77160-voiko-elop-estaa-n9a-kaappaamasta-iphonen-markkinat Jul 01 14:48:35 SpeedEvil: u mean the application page? Jul 01 14:48:43 TheBootroo: Damn - let me add that to my proposal! Jul 01 14:48:54 as my project stuff is all still on Maemo until i get my ass in gear and move it across to meego :0 Jul 01 14:48:59 Tronic: why don't you post directly in english? Jul 01 14:49:00 noobmonk3y: you had to link to a project page in the application. Jul 01 14:49:13 N950 surprise ohuudellaan and light weight, both of which it is like hell N900 aa better Jul 01 14:49:36 SpeedEvil: I linked to my github page Jul 01 14:49:57 Tronic: you have a N950? Jul 01 14:51:25 oh i linked to all of my current project maemo pages etc Jul 01 14:51:28 doh! Jul 01 14:51:38 well i'm still in there, i hope they realised how dappy i am ;) Jul 01 14:51:56 What maemo apps have you got - I forgot. Jul 01 14:52:07 i coulda linked to git, homepage, maemo etc, but i just linked to one :| Jul 01 14:52:15 healthcheck, maecount Jul 01 14:52:18 and helped with many others Jul 01 14:52:52 healthcheck had a few variants, as i had never coded in python, qt, etc etc so started on python, then moved to qt :) Jul 01 14:52:59 Well - to be fair - I think the limit of coding public for a n900 I've done was an bash one-liner that did a knight rider effect on the keyboard LEDs. Jul 01 14:53:01 so the new version could be portable :) Jul 01 14:53:15 SpeedEvil: what on earth did they reject you on? Jul 01 14:53:19 hehehe!! :) Jul 01 14:53:19 Which was cool - but possibly not a very useful app. Jul 01 14:53:19 lol speed i almost incorporated that into hc ;) Jul 01 14:53:23 i coverted it to python ;) Jul 01 14:53:27 Damion3: Out of spec, I suspect. Jul 01 14:53:36 'applications, applications, applications' Jul 01 14:53:45 And to be fiar - I haven't actually written any for the n900 Jul 01 14:53:58 meh.... they are taking into account more then that though :) - reputation is included etc Jul 01 14:54:12 I've been doing wiki, and IRC support stuff. As well as pointing lots of people to resources. Jul 01 14:54:12 SpeedEvil: yuo really did K2000 effect for N900 with keyboard backlight ? Jul 01 14:54:24 yup that would gelp Jul 01 14:54:30 help* Jul 01 14:54:48 I think I caused several applications indirectly. Certainly was one of the early people pushing for usb-host Jul 01 14:55:02 :) :) Jul 01 14:55:18 well doc and Mo both have their N950's on the way! Jul 01 14:55:24 are the accelerometers good enough for inertial navigation? Jul 01 14:55:26 Would love to see if it's possible on the n9 Jul 01 14:55:32 berndhs: No. Jul 01 14:56:18 berndhs: The error is on the order of a centimeter a second a second. This means that after a minute, you're 60cm/s out, with 36m position error. Jul 01 14:56:30 Assuming the device is held in a known orintation. Jul 01 14:56:45 right Jul 01 14:57:04 It's not useless for very, very short term use, or gesture recognition - but much beyond that - no. Jul 01 14:57:08 and most of the data you get would be noise from handling the device Jul 01 14:57:49 does the mail client of harmattan support threaded conversations like gmail does ? Jul 01 14:58:28 i think so :P Jaffa will tell ya tho ;) Jul 01 14:59:59 TheBootroo: no, it doesn't Jul 01 15:00:12 thiago: too bad Jul 01 15:00:21 will have to develop my own the Jul 01 15:00:23 *then Jul 01 15:00:28 thiago: :-( Jul 01 15:00:54 TheBootroo: Make a Google Mail client (i.e. supports delete/archive/report spam) and conversations (rather than full threading) Jul 01 15:01:00 But backed my QMF's IMAP support Jul 01 15:03:27 Jaffa: would be based on Trojita code Jul 01 15:03:41 * Jaffa doesn't know it. Jul 01 15:03:42 QMF is soo unstable and uncomplete Jul 01 15:04:05 Jaffa: i helped this guy to port this program on maemo 5 http://trojita.flaska.net/ Jul 01 15:04:07 TheBootroo: Got IMAP IDLE support, which is quite nice. Jul 01 15:04:17 (as a feature, no idea about the implementation) Jul 01 15:04:20 Jaffa: trojita has it too Jul 01 15:05:00 trojita may be the best mail client at the day, excluding it supoort only IMAP, no SMTP, and the desktop ui is poor Jul 01 15:05:15 The commercial dev program for companies pay for their n950s? Jul 01 15:06:26 SpeedEvil, I don't think so. On the other hand, it wouldn't surprise me though Jul 01 15:06:33 Jaffa: but mobile UX by myself looked great https://gitorious.org/meego-community-mobile-ux-ng/meego-community-mobile-ux-ng/blobs/master/images/my_harmattan-like_apps/Trojita.png Jul 01 15:06:40 and i will enhance it yet a lot Jul 01 15:08:33 TheBootroo, coincidence that your custom MeeGo UX bottom bar looks almost exactly the same as the bottom bar on that UI? :p Jul 01 15:08:36 TheBootroo: That does look good. Jul 01 15:09:11 Termana: no coincidence here , its all my own UX concept so i follow it in all my apps Jul 01 15:10:59 Termana: you can look at several screenshots of my Qt mobile apps here https://gitorious.org/meego-community-mobile-ux-ng/meego-community-mobile-ux-ng/trees/master/images/my_harmattan-like_apps Jul 01 15:11:22 you will see kinda looking-like between them Jul 01 15:11:36 i like consistency Jul 01 15:12:05 i'm baking a small toolkit with all my custom classes to speed up mobile ux development in plain Qt Jul 01 15:12:28 no opengl needed, no qml, no meegotouch, only pure QtCore + QtGui Jul 01 15:15:04 Why are you using QtGui when it's being deprecated? Jul 01 15:15:20 alterego: QtGui is not deprecated Jul 01 15:15:25 it will never be Jul 01 15:15:28 It is being deprecated Jul 01 15:15:31 Yes it is Jul 01 15:15:33 its from the base of qt Jul 01 15:15:40 It's being deprecated in Qt5 Jul 01 15:15:50 And it will probably be removed in some 5.x series Jul 01 15:15:54 Or maybe 6 Jul 01 15:15:55 if qt forces dev to use QML i'll leave qt Jul 01 15:16:03 bye :) Jul 01 15:16:07 i won't use QML Jul 01 15:16:08 * alterego chuckles Jul 01 15:16:25 Well, that's your perogative, no one is going to want to use your code if it isn't QML :P Jul 01 15:16:34 i'll maintain a new framework based on Qt4.8 qwidget Jul 01 15:16:47 For how long, and for what purpose? Jul 01 15:17:09 alterego: because i'm not sure C++ Qt devs should use fricking Javascript for developping apps Jul 01 15:17:13 really too slow Jul 01 15:17:21 and i dont like the syntac Jul 01 15:17:23 *x Jul 01 15:17:37 Not liking syntax is a silly argument. Jul 01 15:17:45 And where would Javascript be noticably slower? Jul 01 15:17:52 and QML isn't as complete as QtWidget, and dont support CSS Jul 01 15:18:02 QML doesn't mean no C++, it just helps you seperate UI with application logic. Jul 01 15:18:14 So, why should CSS even be _in_ a UI framework .. Jul 01 15:18:19 (except HTML5 of course) Jul 01 15:18:24 alterego: JAvascript is noticeably slower since is not compilated binary code Jul 01 15:18:29 alterego: Don't feed the troll :P Jul 01 15:18:33 TheBootroo: where is it slower? Jul 01 15:18:42 alterego: everywhere Jul 01 15:18:47 TheBootroo: I want examples of where you find Javascript visually slower than QWidget .. Jul 01 15:18:52 TheBootroo: neah .. Jul 01 15:19:26 and QML syntax is too much close to JSON, don't look like programming Jul 01 15:19:30 Animations, etc, are all done in C++ for QML Jul 01 15:19:39 Javascript is used to bind the UX into a functioning unit. Jul 01 15:19:58 It's not meant to look like programming, it's meant to be a declarative UI language. Jul 01 15:20:03 You're describing a scene graph. Jul 01 15:20:16 when i would like doing HTML using qt syntax, the qt devs want me to do Qt ui with JSON syntax ? that's a bottom-up world IMP Jul 01 15:20:18 *IMHO Jul 01 15:20:28 rubbish Jul 01 15:20:54 QWidget is ugly and a constant pain in the ass. Jul 01 15:20:57 QML is supposed to feel like "storing data" as opposed to programming Jul 01 15:21:09 (compared with QML) :) Jul 01 15:21:10 alterego: i dont want to use a scene, i want to use c++ objects i can interact with Jul 01 15:21:30 TheBootroo: FWIW, Qt Quick 2.0 and/or Qt5 (I forget which) will (possibly?) have compiled QML files Jul 01 15:21:31 TheBootroo: I don't think you've ever used QML to judge it as you do Jul 01 15:21:43 alterego: i don't find Qwidget a pin in the ass, i can do great things with itr Jul 01 15:21:46 Jaffa: Qt5 is supposed to have compiled QML yeah :) Jul 01 15:21:59 alterego: not really Jul 01 15:22:02 that was never discussed Jul 01 15:22:13 alterego: well the thing about QWidget, making a UI is easier than actually writing everything by yourself :P Jul 01 15:22:16 thiago: really? Well, you'd know, I heard rumours :P Jul 01 15:22:24 hiemanshu: for simple UIs sure. Jul 01 15:22:33 For a text entry here, and a button there .. Jul 01 15:22:38 yup Jul 01 15:22:41 i still can't compile qt5 :) Jul 01 15:22:45 otoh, it probably takes the same amount of time in QML with Qt Components. Jul 01 15:22:48 If not less .. Jul 01 15:22:54 and that is what most use either ways a simple UI Jul 01 15:23:08 hiemanshu: well, that's not true in _this_ ecosystem ;) Jul 01 15:23:14 http://stage.rubyx.co.uk/columbus/index.html Jul 01 15:23:20 That interface is currently QWidget Jul 01 15:23:25 Do you know how long it took to code? Jul 01 15:23:28 alterego: hah yes :D Jul 01 15:23:46 I was doing that interface for about a month. Jul 01 15:23:49 alterego: I dont know, but I'd use it :P Jul 01 15:23:51 In QWidget. Jul 01 15:24:03 alterego: your are not quick enough Jul 01 15:24:07 alterego: well its beautiful Jul 01 15:24:16 TheBootroo: eh? you are a pro? Jul 01 15:24:17 I've since started rewriting it in QML, and I've got about there and I've only spent 2 days doing it. Jul 01 15:24:19 a develop my UX in a bunch of hours using Qwidget custom classes Jul 01 15:24:36 hiemanshu: yes i'm a pro ;-) Jul 01 15:24:37 Good for you .. Jul 01 15:24:50 TheBootroo: oh wow, are you getting a N950? Jul 01 15:24:58 hiemanshu: yes Jul 01 15:25:04 neat Jul 01 15:25:09 I hope to see something from you Jul 01 15:25:24 Lotsa widgets I imagine .. Jul 01 15:25:30 a pro who is disapointed to learn he will need to use fukin QML to develop apps instea of sweet C++ classes he is used to Jul 01 15:25:40 TheBootroo: language Jul 01 15:25:41 hiemanshu: you will Jul 01 15:25:51 TheBootroo: you can use C++ if you want Jul 01 15:25:59 YOu can still use C++ Jul 01 15:26:03 TheBootroo: just not the widget classes you're used to Jul 01 15:26:11 TheBootroo: if you were a "pro" I think you'd see the advantage, anyway, I'm not getting into a debate with you, you're a bit too stuck up for my liking. Jul 01 15:26:13 thiago: yeah but i can't no more develop the UX in plain C++ like i was doing Jul 01 15:26:20 Or make UI independent from the C++ app code Jul 01 15:26:23 eh, you can use C++ you should know that, because you are a pro Jul 01 15:26:33 QML will show again that people can write crappy code in *any* language :) Jul 01 15:26:54 no QML is a conspiracy, to let JS take over the world Jul 01 15:26:55 TheBootroo: no you can't because the widget classes aren't suitable anymore Jul 01 15:26:59 alterego: i dont see advantage because i will noticeably loose time and functionnailty before getting the same level of UX Jul 01 15:27:16 TheBootroo: but QML is the future Jul 01 15:27:18 TheBootroo: so much for being a pro then .. Jul 01 15:28:27 alterego: qwidget will not dispappear because i dont see any businees using it for industrial UX, QML is just good enough for small mobile gadgets Jul 01 15:28:44 TheBootroo: are you sure? Jul 01 15:28:50 i just wish the animations were a little smoother on desktop Jul 01 15:29:15 before, i was seeing QML like a good alternative for small prototypes and all but now we are forced to use it, i dont see the point Jul 01 15:29:30 hiemanshu: let me keep some hopee Jul 01 15:29:40 hiemanshu: Nope. A friend does and I will receive mine only later. Jul 01 15:29:47 Tronic: ah Jul 01 15:30:02 TheBootroo: Finnish audience on that blog. Jul 01 15:30:17 Tronic: no more Jul 01 15:30:23 Tronic: i'm french ;-) Jul 01 15:30:37 and i'll definitely read your blog Jul 01 15:31:10 but ATM, i have to leave you guys, i'm going home Jul 01 15:31:21 will probably come back later Jul 01 16:39:49 Excuse me, how can I get Myriad Alien Dalvik for meego? Is it not open sources? Jul 01 16:40:09 I can't find it on its homepage Jul 01 16:41:00 They just said that Nokia N9 can't run Java apps as Android with Myriad Alien Dalvik. Jul 01 16:41:23 kermit`: it's not open source Jul 01 16:41:25 contact Myriad Jul 01 16:44:36 Hmm, then is there other ways to port Java on Meego, OpenJDK for example? Jul 01 16:45:00 The platform may be Atom. Jul 01 16:45:23 Java is one thing Jul 01 16:45:26 Dalvik is another Jul 01 16:45:29 Such as netbook, ?pad ann so on. Jul 01 16:46:32 I see, but I want port some Android apps on to Meego. Jul 01 16:46:46 Is there any open sources way? Jul 01 16:47:37 yes Jul 01 16:47:58 you can write your own Alien Dalvik Jul 01 16:49:32 That's a great job, but crazy for me. Then it means no way so far? Jul 01 16:50:17 I doubt it Jul 01 16:50:44 rewrite the apps in C++, probably faster than writing your own Dalvik :) Jul 01 16:51:25 right, you can just actually *port* the application Jul 01 16:51:36 To be clear: you don't have to write your own Dalvik, the interpreter is open source. You need to port the middleware to run on top of Qt. Jul 01 16:51:36 In fact, I consider that Qt is greater than Java at least. But I can't port so many programs at a short time. Jul 01 16:52:05 that's why Myriad has a business Jul 01 16:52:18 if it were easy to port all apps, they wouldn't be doing it Jul 01 16:52:44 Hmm, Myriad may earn a lot of money. Jul 01 16:52:59 I have friends there, so I hope they do Jul 01 16:53:21 invest in Myriad shares, get rich, and you won't care about apps Jul 01 16:53:24 you could help working on icedrobot, which is an open source attempt to do similar things (although targetting generic linux desktops rather than meego specifically) Jul 01 16:53:33 Maybe I'd better to tell the boss to buy Myriad directly... Jul 01 16:54:01 not sure how far they've got Jul 01 16:54:20 Thanks, Elleo, I'd like to see it: Jul 01 16:54:22 :) Jul 01 16:54:32 kermit`: http://www.icedrobot.org Jul 01 16:56:03 I have find it from google as soon as you told me:) Thanks Jul 01 17:26:06 I know I asked this before but is there a proper file manager with the meego tablet ux and exopc? Or is everyone just using terminal as pixelgeek1 explained to me? I know the browser works but not seeing it as functional to move files in an easy way. please any insight would be appreciated. 8) Jul 01 17:31:53 beerock, I don't know any, but I was writing a qml-based one some time ago ... Jul 01 17:32:12 * araujo might get back to that code at some point Jul 01 17:33:25 hi all Jul 01 17:34:56 araujo, I personally think you should ;) I will test :) . I think it is a needed addition to make this media freindly like most other tablets and handhelds unless again im missing something. Jul 01 17:35:52 beerock, though I started it more like a way for me to learn QML, ... I do think a file manager is always a handy application no matter what Jul 01 17:36:38 IMO at the videos pane there should be a simple "+ " sign to add some videos same with music etc Jul 01 17:36:45 yeah, I saw the thread in the mailing list, and seems there is some interest, nice ... I guess I can play a bit more with the idea and see what happens :) Jul 01 17:38:03 syre wish I could help, but dont understand programming. not sure why there isnt just a "+" sign at the top, Jul 01 17:39:03 of the video/music .I personally thought I was not able to find such a button. Jul 01 17:39:52 if I upload something publicly, I will announce in the mailing list , so you are welcome to test ;) Jul 01 17:46:47 and hell, while it seems Im complaining ;) I'm not. Why isnt twitter under the social. ?? any light on that. Otherwise this would be my everyday on my tablet but instead i'm stuck with stinkin windows. Jul 01 18:00:41 araujo: Yeah, I'd put a file manager right behind a working terminal on the list of "important geek tools". One of the problems is that everyone working on this stuff always has a box handy from which to ssh. MeeGo is just now getting to the point where people will use it in isolation. Jul 01 18:08:29 that's pretty sad, file manager usage now means people are "geeks" Jul 01 18:08:49 very sad...... Jul 01 18:08:53 what's next, people who can tie their shoes are "mechanics" ? Jul 01 18:09:14 but i do consider myself a part-time geek Jul 01 18:09:30 * TSCHAKeee hates the concept of files in general Jul 01 18:09:34 and operating systems Jul 01 18:09:45 but programmers are stubborn people Jul 01 18:09:48 even when shown better solutions. Jul 01 18:09:58 i'm a mechanic but still have velcro Jul 01 18:10:07 (read: Smalltalk, and objects) Jul 01 18:10:20 velcro is fine for many purposes :) Jul 01 18:10:48 well, this is Unix, everything is a "file" Jul 01 18:11:03 so what? Jul 01 18:11:07 ;) Jul 01 18:11:14 just a different name for "object" Jul 01 18:11:15 stop being autistic for once Jul 01 18:11:17 ;) Jul 01 18:11:28 not really Jul 01 18:11:30 berndhs: I honestly agree in principle. But in practice users don't use file managers, period. It makes me sad too that the only way to access content is through content-specific apps these days, but it's the way that all the successful platforms have made it work. Jul 01 18:11:33 files are untyped blobs of crap Jul 01 18:12:01 they serve to isolate information, rather than letting it mingle and connect together Jul 01 18:12:13 andyross: I think it is a bad mistake to contrain all users to how the top 85% will behave Jul 01 18:12:23 (this is my research and development fringe computer scientist side of me talking) Jul 01 18:12:25 Maybe there's an opportunity there for someone to rethink the idea of content management and come up with something that recovers the filesystem in a way that's meaningful to users. But that's a whole lot more innovative than just writing a file manager. File managers are for geeks. Jul 01 18:12:26 s/contrain/constrain/ Jul 01 18:12:27 berndhs meant: andyross: I think it is a bad mistake to constrain all users to how the top 85% will behave Jul 01 18:12:56 * andyross chuckles at the sed bot Jul 01 18:12:58 andyross, it seems like a good point to have a file manager .... Jul 01 18:12:59 :P Jul 01 18:13:18 well, personally I don't use file managers much, I use /usr/bin/find Jul 01 18:13:46 Yeah, that's the reason we don't have one yet: we're all shelled into the device from something with a keyboard. Jul 01 18:15:34 TSCHAKeee: so the iAPX-32 would support that very well, wouldn't it :) Jul 01 18:15:47 or was it 432 ? i forget Jul 01 18:16:54 i worked on concepts for structured architecture stuff many moons ago Jul 01 18:17:48 432.. it would have been interesting Jul 01 18:18:00 ironically, the VAX CPU would hve done it very well Jul 01 18:18:00 yes Jul 01 18:18:15 alas DEC settled for VMS :P :) Jul 01 18:18:18 Burroughs was way ahead on those things Jul 01 18:18:21 kidding, i did like some aspects of VMS Jul 01 18:18:30 oh yeah, the B5000 had Euler. Jul 01 18:18:50 or..shit i forget which one Jul 01 18:18:57 but the guy who was working on Euler was working at Burroughs. Jul 01 18:18:57 in todays terminology, every memory word had a MIME type Jul 01 18:19:03 mhm Jul 01 18:19:42 some of those ideas were put into the OSI standards Jul 01 18:19:48 well, a type tag Jul 01 18:19:54 *nod* Jul 01 18:20:04 hi all, I never used rpm before, how to run a "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" on meego 1.2?

Jul 01 18:24:55 couldn't see anything clear in the platform guide, though I may have missed it Jul 01 18:30:37 oss-1.2-daily takes a lot to synchronize Jul 01 19:22:30 can I set mirror for the repositories or there is none?

Jul 01 21:04:47 does anyone know what's holding up mic2 on fedora? Jul 01 21:05:01 Stskeeps|holiday: no no usb is working Jul 01 21:05:11 but I don't know why meego isn't charging anymore Jul 01 21:05:31 it was charging, but I used the wifi a bit and then battery went low Jul 01 21:05:40 Stskeeps|holiday, me usb broken. You now if I can play with meego with no usbcable? Jul 01 21:05:40 bash`: may just be a bug, but in those cases i would boot into maemo Jul 01 21:05:58 niala: i would say dont Jul 01 21:06:06 I guess I cannot flash maemo with a low battery :( Jul 01 21:06:13 sad :( Jul 01 21:06:32 bash`: get a nokia charger, it can push 500mA in Jul 01 21:06:51 niala: AFAIK you need either usbnet or mass storage to install meego on emmc Jul 01 21:07:14 Stskeeps|holiday: yes, the problem is 11pm here :) Jul 01 21:08:18 bash`: reboot meego, start device, let it boot a bit, insert charger Jul 01 21:08:21 gtg again Jul 01 21:08:37 bye, thanks Jul 01 21:31:39 now that I'd finally have time to blog about the MeeGo conference, I can barely remember my own name Jul 01 21:31:44 :-( Jul 01 21:40:51 Heh Jul 01 21:41:42 yeah, I'm not sure if it's funny tho Jul 01 21:41:48 I guess it is Jul 01 21:41:55 in it's own way Jul 01 21:43:41 :) Jul 01 21:44:04 Look at all the pics again, maybe some of the videos sessions etc Jul 01 21:44:18 Jot down some notes and I'm sure it'll all come flooding back Jul 01 21:45:44 hmm.. I know this might be a long shot, but I received a N950 this wednesday and suddenly it "stopped working" Jul 01 21:46:10 I was changing sim card on the device and powered it down Jul 01 21:46:22 Worrying. Jul 01 21:46:34 and it started looping the powering on vibration Jul 01 21:46:54 and never booted the harmattan Jul 01 21:47:00 Pressing and holding the poweroff button for 8s should turn it off. Jul 01 21:47:27 8 seconds? I'll try it now Jul 01 21:47:52 Not got one - this is generic advice - what happens if you plug it into a linux box - can you flash it? Jul 01 21:48:06 You should recharge it first before trying anything. Jul 01 21:49:07 hmm well, the battery ran out at some point, so when I recharge it, it just keeps on looping powering on vibration Jul 01 21:49:10 heh Jul 01 21:49:26 but let's try the 8 seconds first Jul 01 21:50:29 If it's actually got to the point where it's shutting down - that's unlikely to help. Jul 01 21:50:32 Worth a shot though. Jul 01 21:50:55 yeah, that what I thought as wll Jul 01 21:50:56 well Jul 01 21:51:10 I'd next wonder if it'll flash. Jul 01 21:51:29 I'll need to try that, but probably not :( Jul 01 21:51:30 You just turned it off - swapped SIM - and it never came back? Jul 01 21:51:34 yep Jul 01 21:51:41 and you know Jul 01 21:51:50 when you reached a bootlooping state then your only chance is to alien recharge or get a fresh battery Jul 01 21:52:04 thing is, that it kind of sucks because "no warranty" policy Jul 01 21:52:11 Charge battery, yes - but that's going to be awkward. Jul 01 21:52:34 Where'd you get it - Helsinki meetup? Jul 01 21:52:42 have you tried removing the SIM that you swapped in to it? Jul 01 21:52:45 in there, yeah Jul 01 21:52:47 duh, wait, this is N950?! Jul 01 21:52:48 I did Jul 01 21:52:51 yep Jul 01 21:52:57 sorry, no idea about N950 Jul 01 21:53:14 This is speculation, based on it being similar to the n900, which seems likely. Jul 01 21:53:14 heh, no problem Jul 01 21:53:31 iirc there's a --charge command option on flasher for 950 Jul 01 21:53:49 well, I was thinking of opening the backside and removing the battery Jul 01 21:55:30 aslani: yeah, take out the SIM, we witnessed cases where contacts on SIM made relevant parts of the cmt stack segfault Jul 01 21:55:54 On OM? Jul 01 21:56:02 no, on #maemo Jul 01 21:56:08 N900 Jul 01 21:56:13 ah Jul 01 21:56:16 DocScrutinizer: thanks, It's removed already, but maybe I'll blow some air into sim slot? Jul 01 21:56:34 that won't probably change anything Jul 01 21:56:36 * SpeedEvil idly wonders on ESD. Jul 01 21:56:41 hms Jul 01 21:57:09 check flasher, it has a charging function Jul 01 21:57:27 bootlooping won't charge battery Jul 01 21:57:33 thanks, I'll try that Jul 01 21:57:49 :-) Jul 01 21:58:05 hmm... any links to the flasher? heh. Jul 01 21:58:14 mompls Jul 01 21:59:26 nah, sorry. It's inside the image for n950 Jul 01 21:59:32 yeah it is Jul 01 21:59:34 can't find the link Jul 01 21:59:39 well, no worries Jul 01 22:00:48 I'll probably try to boot it without battery and see what happens Jul 01 22:01:00 nothing will happen Jul 01 22:01:13 it will not boot Jul 01 22:01:28 agh Jul 01 22:01:58 * SpeedEvil ponders offering a n950 repair service. Jul 01 22:02:02 :) Jul 01 22:02:07 it needs a kickstart push from battery to startup the hw, even while charger hooked up Jul 01 22:02:13 heh Jul 01 22:02:40 when battery is depleted too much, you can't boot it anymore afaik Jul 01 22:03:34 ok, well that's at least somewhat usefull information Jul 01 22:04:07 I thought that my battery was about full when this happened, but you never know Jul 01 22:04:08 is there any trick to get it to charge, like there was on the FR? Jul 01 22:10:34 update on the situation: I just plugged it in to my desktop and charge light turned on, but it did no bootloop Jul 01 22:11:00 I'll leave it there for 5 hours and see if that makes any difference Jul 01 22:13:06 :) Jul 01 22:23:35 aslani: I'm in the same situation :) Jul 01 22:23:54 nice to hear a desktop could "fix" it Jul 01 22:25:23 sorry my english is bad , is first time i install meego Jul 01 22:25:35 how i can install virtualbox inside meego? Jul 01 22:25:42 bash`: what did you do? Jul 01 22:25:51 migue83: I'm pretty sure you can't Jul 01 22:25:58 aslani: I've a n900 with meego in the eMMC Jul 01 22:26:12 right Jul 01 22:26:34 :( Jul 01 22:27:09 too bad, that n900 is a bit easier device to work on. Jul 01 22:27:24 aslani: do you know if something like this could charge it? http://www.amazon.com/IPAD-2USB-High-Power-Adapter-Compatible/dp/B001QVHO38 Jul 01 22:27:30 let's see Jul 01 22:27:57 all perfect with meego only some software i need used with windows and i try know if i can install virtualbox or vmware Jul 01 22:28:53 I don't want to buy a wall charger (I already have one, not here right now), tomorrow I'll buy something like that and see if that works Jul 01 22:28:53 I'm not really sure if this really outputs more power via USB than my USB2 desktop machine? But I have seen similiar devices being used tho Jul 01 22:29:06 yeah Jul 01 22:29:14 I was just thinking about that Jul 01 22:40:49 Have anyone installed neetbook 1.2 with Finnish language? Jul 01 23:44:59 morning Jul 01 23:46:04 irc:///logicsbox.jf.intel.com:6665 Jul 01 23:47:45 cyas Jul 02 00:29:00 another update to my situtation: flasher seems to be charging my N950 now, it did not work on my osX for some reason, but in win7 works fine Jul 02 00:29:17 I'll let you know what happens when it's finished Jul 02 00:36:16 use gnu/linux Jul 02 00:37:37 well, I would but I got 0 native installations right now :) Jul 02 00:37:42 only VMs Jul 02 01:06:01 Final update: flashing the device did work. It took a bit less than a hour Jul 02 01:06:24 now I just need to reinput all of my settings etc... :( Jul 02 01:09:03 my first harmattan app mostly works :) http://mikeasoft.com/~mike/librefm-meego.ogv Jul 02 01:10:03 Dada weatherman <3 Jul 02 01:10:12 :) Jul 02 01:38:17 hiyas **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jul 02 02:59:57 2011
