**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Mar 21 02:59:57 2009 Mar 21 03:00:07 lindi-: it's reliable Mar 21 03:05:02 DocScrutinizer: ehat a shame Mar 21 03:05:27 but i understand if thry run out of money Mar 21 03:05:34 lindi-: lapland?? I hope for pleasure, not business -- neat trip. Mar 21 03:05:48 so Mar 21 03:05:53 is openmoko donefor? :D Mar 21 03:07:37 lindi-: that's what I assume as well to be reason of recent layoffs Mar 21 03:13:23 Oh, don't all be so pessimistic. It could just be that Andy ticked off one of the managers once too often. Mar 21 03:13:42 nah Mar 21 03:13:59 There are other reasons people leave besides companies "run out of money"... Mar 21 03:14:40 conspiracy? :D Mar 21 03:15:01 * mwester thinks openmoko is notable for letting experienced people go Mar 21 03:15:12 mmhmmm Mar 21 03:15:52 actually not all were that experienced Mar 21 03:15:56 * Dave pictures Sean like the Nazi guy in the end of The Last Crusade... "You have chose UNwisely..." (and then his face melts off) Mar 21 03:29:08 is openmoko broke? The finance crisis at work? Mar 21 03:30:10 hahaha Mar 21 03:30:14 dubious Mar 21 03:30:22 marketfaaaaaaaaaaaaall /o\ Mar 21 03:32:24 lindi-: you letter is on it's way Mar 21 03:33:42 no reason to panic *g* when it also hits us admins we will rather ask you all guys for money to keep the servers running than just scatter crying ;) Mar 21 03:35:12 heh Mar 21 03:35:37 Hi roh! Good to see you're still around. Mar 21 03:35:52 roh: seems central services isn't endangered yet Mar 21 03:36:42 DocScrutinizer well.. we dunno anything as usual ;) so i can just assume so Mar 21 03:36:53 yup Mar 21 03:37:01 true words Mar 21 03:37:09 but we also get rumors.. well.. duh... wouldnt be openmoko without. Mar 21 03:37:54 still remember the day harald left... a day with everbody just sitting there staring and discussing... lots of phonecalls Mar 21 03:39:07 crisis is a bad word.. it just means 'opportunity' .. if it was a crisis you know after you decided and things happened and you look at sth. in retrospective. Mar 21 03:41:16 hmmm Mar 21 03:41:57 Roh is right. The only reason the current US economy is in crisis is because the country's leadership has been saying it's a crisis for months. If people wouldn't be so defeatist about it, they would see that the current financial stuff is an opportunity for the rigth companies. (Although I don't know how Openmoko could capitalize on that situation, but that's probably why I'm a field tech guy, and not an executive) Mar 21 03:41:59 * DocScrutinizer won't comment that Mar 21 03:42:25 i just mean.. panicing never helped and that day was basically wasted.. nothing said on that day them really mattered anyways in the end. what mattered was what one did from there (as always) Mar 21 03:44:00 mwester well.. that and that us economy was built on living of lent money. over here thats not _that_ massively true. Mar 21 03:44:51 mwester people take up credits to buy cars or houses, true, but you usually cannot even pay in the supermarket with a creditcard. Mar 21 03:45:28 not credit matters, what you can really can spend does, atleast for the most. Mar 21 03:47:04 i guess its just much more difficult if all levels of daily living depend on having credit somewhere. Mar 21 03:47:09 Yep. I have to try hard to not grow angry -- I have been financially prudent, lived without furniture for years and drive my cars till they fall apart -- and because I took care, now I get to pay the mortgage payments for other people's poor credt decision. Mar 21 03:47:24 *g* Mar 21 03:48:08 there are left-wing people demonstrating here in berlin from time to time... now i have seen a tagline recently which was 'we do not pay for your crisis' Mar 21 03:48:47 I agree with them. Why should any country pay for our government's stupidity? Mar 21 03:49:06 mwester: i'm in that boat, as well. Mar 21 03:49:08 How will they learn if everyone just "makes it better" Mar 21 03:49:11 ? Mar 21 03:49:47 and quite unhappy about it, too. there are no jobs here, and tens of thousands of IT workers no longer working the walmart circles. Mar 21 03:49:58 Its damned hard to make ends meet. Mar 21 03:50:01 i would also like to.. the problem is that without banks you have even more, not less problems. and one can use that opportunity (there it is again) to not only pay money into a bank, but then also use that 'investment' of the state to use the controlling one can do then. Mar 21 03:50:27 i mean.. if you buy a company and have enough shares you have some or even controlling interrest ;) Mar 21 03:52:03 * mwester needs his own island, so he can create his own country... that way at least when it falls apart, its his own fault. Mar 21 03:52:15 kinda funny... in 1989/90 when the wall fell and east- and west-germany reunited some people thought 'state owned companies/banks' would be over for good.. now its some kind of 'un-privatisation' again.. funny to see Mar 21 03:53:22 heh - a bumper sticker I saw said it this way: in good times, everyone is a capitalist -- in bad times, everyone is a socialist. A bit extreme, but I take the point. Mar 21 03:53:35 still waiting for german railways or the tcom needing a bailout Mar 21 03:55:34 Well, I'm not opposed to bailouts (I'm not an extremist in that way). But I work with the auto companies here, and the suppliers, and I know that there's no bailout that's going to work - they are dead. They were failed companies a decade ago, they're just so big the brain doesn't know it died yet. In a world economy, they were all wrong, and the bailout money is just wasted. We should have spent it on trains, or something useufl. Mar 21 03:56:27 Or they could have given it to me! :-D Mar 21 03:56:55 (At least I could account for where it would have gone!) Mar 21 03:59:48 bailouts only help if the reason for needing one gets fixed. Mar 21 04:00:11 don't see that in the car industry.. regardless if gm, crystler, opel, or whoelse Mar 21 04:02:04 That's exactly right. So why can't our politicians understand that? Grr! Mar 21 04:12:47 Dave: htc phones... all windows mobile... so all would need reverse-engineering Mar 21 04:14:58 vininim: i wasnt involved in any recent "downsizing" - i left last august all on my own :) Mar 21 04:16:46 raster: big picture =P Mar 21 04:25:07 aaah Mar 21 04:25:08 :) Mar 21 05:27:50 mwester: there you asked a question that puzzles myself as well :) at least it will so for a bit Mar 21 06:15:08 larsc: i just hit a bug where xorg responds to everything very slowly (it has been reported against xglamo befora) have you seen rhis Mar 21 07:24:54 does elementary have a horizontal slider? i want to make a widget to control the backlight brightness Mar 21 07:32:09 Blu3, that'd be sweet Mar 21 07:32:11 Hey Sargun Mar 21 07:38:19 Dave, Blu3 already implemented ;-) Mar 21 07:38:58 in my vala=settings app Mar 21 07:39:15 will port to shr-settings soon Mar 21 07:43:52 uplosded to scap.linuxtogo.org Mar 21 07:44:11 hor slider in acton and working Mar 21 07:48:30 http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/03f5f71b0ddd1968bd4c3b70967ffeec.png Mar 21 07:49:25 is that efl? Mar 21 07:49:46 yep, elementary Mar 21 07:49:59 Dave, I nuked my FR Mar 21 07:50:00 temporarily Mar 21 07:50:14 not very polished layout yet, admittedly Mar 21 07:50:16 cool spaetz Mar 21 07:51:09 can someone explain the right way to start illume, including the configuration and plugin? Mar 21 07:52:09 and the best is, app startup and reaction time can be measured in sub-seconds and not wallclock time as in shr-settings Mar 21 07:56:38 damn Mar 21 07:56:49 sargun, chernobylrunner? Mar 21 07:57:00 I wonder if nukerunner would have sold better... Mar 21 07:58:58 dagger, ha Mar 21 07:59:12 johnsu01: ping Mar 21 08:00:05 hmm Mar 21 08:25:25 Looks like i banned to sent to smartphones-userland@linuxtogo.org, wtf? :( Mar 21 08:30:49 'thats used by the syscall system, thats used by the syscall system.. that needs to catch fire and die.' Mar 21 08:31:37 juri_: looking for sympathy? ;) Mar 21 08:32:09 paul: comiserating. ;) Mar 21 08:34:19 * PaulFertser hugs juri_. Carefully. Mar 21 08:41:53 To be honest, I'm kindof on the outs with the mainline kernel developers, for being more free software than RMS, and working on a project thats been outcast, and many of them don't like. Could be worse. ;) Mar 21 09:16:29 PaulFertser: sorry... still busy with harddisk transition :( Mar 21 09:17:39 mrmoku: I understand, you gotta do it carefully :) Mar 21 09:18:07 hehe... was feeling adventureous instead... and installed Fedora 11 Alpha :P Mar 21 09:18:15 -e Mar 21 09:18:39 mrmoku: Ainu will spank you ;) Mar 21 09:18:43 it just takes soooo long... to backup and restore all that stuff Mar 21 09:18:49 PaulFertser: yeah... might be Mar 21 09:19:21 * mrmoku could think about a gentoo partition to satisfy Ainulindale ;) Mar 21 09:20:12 mrmoku: looks like i'll be finally forced to clean some mess on my HD and install OE sooner or later. Mar 21 09:20:53 PaulFertser: well... it has its problems... but very strong sides also Mar 21 09:42:27 mickey|zzZZzz: Hey :) whom should i contact to ask why my mails didn't reach smartphones-userland (headers from [Gmail]/Sent folder: http://pastebin.com/m36056537 )? Mar 21 09:42:46 Looks like they were silently dropped... Mar 21 10:20:21 mrmoku: se http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/03f5f71b0ddd1968bd4c3b70967ffeec.png? Mar 21 10:21:40 requoting myself: and the best is, app startup and reaction time can be measured in sub-seconds and not wallclock time Mar 21 10:21:49 and the best is, app startup and reaction time can be measured in sub-seconds and not wallclock time Mar 21 10:33:04 spaetz: :-) Mar 21 10:33:17 spaetz: convince dos1 to join :D Mar 21 10:34:08 spaetz: btw... if I understood the long backlog from last night right... raster fixed the ecore-fb problem Mar 21 11:00:14 PaulFertser: i can't see you in the subscription members Mar 21 11:01:16 mickey|zzZZzz: do you think it's a valid reason to silently drop mails from me? Mar 21 11:01:51 mickey|zzZZzz: (not intended to sound harsh) Mar 21 11:02:25 mickey|zzZZzz: but really, i guess that's a commonly accepted idea that anybody can write to any list, and subscription is not strictly necessary for that. Mar 21 11:02:59 mickey|zzZZzz: i can get list messages by other means and the replies to my mail will reach me via To: and Cc: anyway. Mar 21 11:03:50 i don't know about what's commonly accepted Mar 21 11:04:06 i only know we had to close all linuxtogo lists for subscription since we didn't manage to keep the spam under control otherwise Mar 21 11:04:09 mickey|zzZZzz: not that my mail was important or even worth reading, but anyway, that's just a bit unpleasant to have one's mail dropped. Mar 21 11:04:25 ya, sorry, but it's the general way the linuxtogo lists work Mar 21 11:04:35 if we could hire a full day sysadmin... Mar 21 11:04:40 ... things could be different ;) Mar 21 11:04:53 mickey|zzZZzz: not even you can accept mail from SPF-trusted hosts (like gmail smpt server)? Not even after greylisting? Mar 21 11:05:16 sure i can do all kind of things if i want, but my admin time is extremely limited Mar 21 11:05:21 i can whitelist you Mar 21 11:05:26 if you want Mar 21 11:05:31 but you might as well just subscribe Mar 21 11:05:33 fso is da future ;) Mar 21 11:05:43 mickey|zzZZzz: moreover, even OM official lists send a mail back about "your message is awaiting moderation", and that's more clear. Mar 21 11:05:52 mickey|zzZZzz: no, i'll subscribe, no problems. Mar 21 11:06:04 thanks. i agree silently dropping is not the best way to handle it Mar 21 11:06:12 eventually i'm going to move the lists over to fso itself Mar 21 11:06:17 then i will change this, promised Mar 21 11:06:30 mickey|zzZZzz: thanks a lot :) Mar 21 11:06:32 np Mar 21 11:06:39 * mickey|zzZZzz hears wifey coming with the bread Mar 21 11:06:41 breakfast! Mar 21 11:06:43 l8er Mar 21 11:06:44 mickey|zzZZzz: is compatibility with python2.5 for fso a must? Mar 21 11:06:49 not for me Mar 21 11:06:54 i'm open to what people need there Mar 21 11:07:02 Ok, enjoy your breakfast :) Mar 21 11:07:04 thanks Mar 21 11:07:05 Thanks again. Mar 21 11:45:00 morning Mar 21 11:48:23 Ainulindale: ping Mar 21 12:09:52 freesmartphone.org: 03fercerpav 07framework * r4ef7e0717e87 10/framework/subsystems/ophoned/headset.py: ophoned: Retain compatibility with Python 2.5 Mar 21 12:23:25 mrmoku: hello Mar 21 12:23:39 mrmoku: I come back to you as you seem to master git Mar 21 12:24:08 mrmoku: I opened a branch as you told me yesterday and this worked perfectly. Mar 21 12:24:38 Git fu lesson! Mar 21 12:24:55 I was wondering whether it is possible to make multiple disjoint branch (that modifies disjoint sets of files) Mar 21 12:25:27 Then merge the branches but still be able to insert commits on the individual branches ? Mar 21 12:25:40 PaulFertser: hello! how are you ? Mar 21 12:26:15 ptitjes: why not, you just branch from some point and work there. Then you can merge one branch to the other. Still the branch you merge from is accessible, you can continue to work on it. Mar 21 12:26:34 is there a place where the elm layout mechanism is explained well? Mar 21 12:26:59 ptitjes: Hey :) i'm ok. Read some details about closures in libffi yesterday, but was distracted, so i don't know the implementation details yet. Sounds like fun. Mar 21 12:27:10 PaulFertser: so if I continue to work on a branch, will the merged branch automatically update ? Mar 21 12:27:29 ptitjes: but as i told you the first time we talked about it, it's not portable and basically a hack ;) Just a very developed hack ported to many archs ;) Mar 21 12:27:31 PaulFertser: yeah a bit like a black art! :) Mar 21 12:28:10 PaulFertser: yeah but what is not a very developed hack ported to many archs ?? ;) Mar 21 12:28:22 linux is indeed! :D Mar 21 12:28:37 ptitjes: no, the branch you merge _to_ is either fast-tracked (starts to include commits from the branch you merge from, it's only possible if the branch you merge from is based on the current HEAD of the branch you merge to) Mar 21 12:29:16 ptitjes: or a special merge commit is added to the branch you merge _to_. That's all. Mar 21 12:30:15 PaulFertser: so say I have 3 branches gir-writing, gir-parsing and experimental Mar 21 12:31:06 I can merge them to a fourth, say 'ptitjes', based on HEAD that merges the three other branches Mar 21 12:31:46 then I can regularly merge the commits from those three branch and master to 'ptitjes' ? Mar 21 12:32:06 s/HEAD/master/ Mar 21 12:32:55 but I have to it manually by cherry-picking Mar 21 12:34:34 ptitjes: sorry, i reread your description several times, but couldn't understand it :) Mar 21 12:34:45 PaulFertser: np :) Mar 21 12:35:00 PaulFertser: in fact what I want is to maintain multiple disjoint branches Mar 21 12:35:27 and be able to make releases (throught bb) that merges origin/master and my three branches Mar 21 12:36:03 PaulFertser: there is surely one simple way to automate this, isn't ? Mar 21 12:36:08 +it Mar 21 12:37:36 Or maybe I should cook a script that format-patch the commits of the three branch and apply all on sources checked-out from master Mar 21 12:38:16 ptitjes: there is stgit that greatly simplifies work with patch series. Mar 21 12:45:15 ptitjes: for a short-term solution you can also use a "release-currentdate" branch that you can create every time to do a release and merge your topic branches to that. That way you'll have all your previous releases in history, but it's still not elegant. I guess you need to wait for an advice of a more experienced git user. Mar 21 12:45:54 PaulFertser: is a very good tool Mar 21 12:46:00 +stgit Mar 21 12:46:23 PaulFertser: git is hell too complicated for me :) Mar 21 12:46:24 ptitjes: so the ideal solution depends much on your workflow and on compromises. Mar 21 12:46:46 I would like to reorder my commits through drag-and-drop ;) Mar 21 12:47:44 ptitjes: for that you can easily format-patch all your commits, reset, apply the way you like. Not that hard with plain git. Mar 21 12:47:56 PaulFertser: anyway I think stgit is what I need, I must study their tutorial Mar 21 12:48:25 ptitjes: but it's always a compromise. Rewriting history is easy but not useful in the long term. With patch series you constantly rewrite the history if i understand it correctly. Mar 21 12:48:46 PaulFertser: but you know everytime you think "if I make a mistake here, I'll have to redo everything..." Mar 21 12:49:03 (or better put, your history doesn't really exist in the first place) Mar 21 12:50:22 PaulFertser: in fact I exactly am in the "waiting for upstream" scenario described on stgit man page Mar 21 12:50:30 ptitjes: always a compromise. In some situations it's better to rewrite history (reorder or change patches, rebase etc). For others it will do more harm than good... You need to talk to developers about that. Mar 21 12:50:33 where can I find the dbus commands to control bluetotth (power on/off) - found http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Org_bluez._org_bluez Mar 21 12:50:43 but it doesnt seem to be what I want Mar 21 12:50:49 PaulFertser: those branch are on a clone waiting to be merge to upstream Mar 21 12:52:16 PaulFertser: I think I better see how to proceed. Thank you! Mar 21 12:54:20 billk: don't forget you have to first use the fso Usage service to enable the device Mar 21 12:56:10 Thats probably what I cant find at the moment - will keep looking - want to script bluetooth on, connect, play audio to headset and shutdown nicely Mar 21 13:01:47 billk: turning on/off bluetooth is easy. Use odeviced.

I hope mrmoku will help us to test the new kernel really soon. ;) Mar 21 13:45:00 we could have a branch that accumulates the feature-branches though Mar 21 13:45:11 i'm not enough of a git expert to know how to do that streamlined though Mar 21 13:45:54 mickey|sofa: ok Mar 21 13:47:07 mickey|sofa: I did quite redo all my gir writing work on the gir-support branch :) Info here : http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=568951#c14 Mar 21 13:47:17 hmm testing with andy kernel Mar 21 13:47:34 ptitjes: oh, cool. can you -- in a nutshell -- explain me what this bring us? Mar 21 13:48:22 mickey|sofa: now making valac --library stuff-1.0 generate a g-i compilable GIR file along to the generated vapi Mar 21 13:49:44 mickey|sofa: that gir file may be compiled through g-ir-compiler to get a stuff-1.0.typelib Mar 21 13:50:25 mickey|sofa: that typelib file is binary file that is usable throught GIRepository api. from it you can obtain type information dynamically Mar 21 13:51:42 mickey|sofa: I use that in libmodulo (ophonekitd components container) to get the available components and retrieve the custom [Modulo (...)] annotations that dictates how the container must handle them Mar 21 13:52:18 hmm, cool Mar 21 13:53:36 mickey|sofa: in fact in the end, valac will also generate the vapis based on GIR files. but I have to redo my work on valac gir-parsing. this is why I wanted to make a second branch as the changes occurs on disjoint files Mar 21 13:54:52 mickey|sofa: I also have that patch that I would be glad could be applied on fso's Vala git clone : http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=128773&action=diff Mar 21 13:55:07 mickey|sofa: this one enables things like that : Mar 21 13:58:02 http://git.shr-project.org/git/?p=libmodulo.git;a=blob;f=src/modulo-factories.vala;hb=HEAD#l105 Mar 21 13:58:55 i.e. GLib.Object o = dbus_connection.get_object_from_type(bus_name, object_path, interface_name, type); Mar 21 13:59:21 nice stuff Mar 21 13:59:23 mickey|sofa: where type is a GType and o is a static dbus proxy Mar 21 13:59:35 feel free to commit that Mar 21 13:59:35 and not dynamic Mar 21 13:59:39 cool Mar 21 13:59:52 since you seem to be an expert here... what would it take to get proper error reporting? Mar 21 13:59:56 [dbus, that is] Mar 21 14:00:05 this is one of the two things holding my work on FSO 2 back atm. Mar 21 14:00:15 I must study that more closely Mar 21 14:00:35 k Mar 21 14:01:05 but it seems to me that the dbus error already encapsulate the remote error quarck Mar 21 14:01:09 quark Mar 21 14:01:25 mickey|sofa: so this should not be so much work Mar 21 14:01:37 sounds good Mar 21 14:03:35 mickey|sofa: my other will concerning dbus would be that we are able to define this method to return a http://git.freesmartphone.org/?p=libfso-glib.git;a=blob;f=src/freesmartphone.vala;hb=HEAD#l13 and that the generated static dbus proxy would transparently return a new proxy to that object path Mar 21 14:04:04 thus one could do in Vala : Mar 21 14:04:42 phone.incoming += incoming_handler; Mar 21 14:04:55 with incoming_handler having such signature: Mar 21 14:05:08 public void incoming_handler(PhoneCall call) Mar 21 14:05:37 that would be super easy to make great apps with libmodulo Mar 21 14:05:49 oh yeah Mar 21 14:05:51 exciting stuff Mar 21 14:05:58 what's Jürg take on all that? Mar 21 14:06:07 * ptitjes goes walking with the dog Mar 21 14:06:14 mickey|sofa: he wants it :) Mar 21 14:06:46 good Mar 21 14:06:48 have fun Mar 21 14:07:01 mickey|sofa: but yet he is hard-working on his header rework for three weeks now, and I had no chance to make him commit my patches :( Mar 21 14:07:12 yah, he seems pretty unresponsive these days Mar 21 14:07:14 grrr Mar 21 14:07:19 i can imagine tihs header rework being tough Mar 21 14:07:19 :) Mar 21 14:07:23 c u Mar 21 14:07:24 cu Mar 21 14:08:41 Ainulindale: could we host an Openmoko community kernel mirroring andy-tracking at shr-project or would you find that out of the place? Mar 21 14:09:01 then again Mar 21 14:09:05 scratch that Mar 21 14:09:11 I'll try @ openezx Mar 21 14:09:17 might be more related Mar 21 14:17:42 hi all! Mar 21 14:17:52 Hi Mickey :) Mar 21 14:18:08 does shr or current openmoko-experimentall/paroli suports opimd? Mar 21 14:18:34 yo dave Mar 21 14:18:44 nothing is using opimd yet Mar 21 14:19:05 that bad Mar 21 14:19:16 users need pim =) Mar 21 14:19:49 yeah yeah Mar 21 14:21:05 its the last stopping factor for me to migrate from om2008.x to newer stacks Mar 21 14:22:57 freesmartphone.org: 03mickey 07libeflvala * r0c713cc705ea 10/examples/library/ (Makefile.am mainloops.vala): start with mainloops weaving example Mar 21 14:29:09 michael-w: no problem Mar 21 14:31:15 damn, too late Mar 21 14:36:28 ptitjes: sorry... was quite offline Mar 21 14:36:55 kernel devs do exactly what you want to do me thinks Mar 21 14:37:17 automatically merge topic branches into one 'to-test' branch Mar 21 14:39:59 will try to find some pointers until your dog brings you back ;) Mar 21 14:40:53 Ainulindale: mickey|zzZZzz is still around Mar 21 14:43:30 Well he saw my answer anyway Mar 21 14:43:45 Ainulindale: was just trying to help ... Mar 21 14:48:30 mrmoku: héhé Mar 21 14:48:56 he wanted to stay outside but still... I succeeded to rejoin my laptop Mar 21 14:50:04 Ainulindale: ping Mar 21 14:50:34 mirko-paroli: I know Mar 21 14:50:39 ptitjes: I have to go now Mar 21 14:50:49 ha! ok Mar 21 14:50:51 Listened to your message, I'm busy this afternoon :-/ Mar 21 14:50:52 ptitjes: :-) Mar 21 14:51:06 ha ok Mar 21 14:51:11 Ainulindale: just one thing Mar 21 14:51:25 did you see cven comment on the FSOSHR... wiki page ?

Mar 21 15:24:22 Though I'd hardly say it is indeed magical :p Mar 21 15:25:51 well... git is magical compared to other crappy vcs ;) Mar 21 15:28:28 PaulFertser: btw... my adventure finished by reinstalling... with F10 :P Mar 21 15:29:02 ooh Mar 21 15:29:15 mrmoku: May I suggest VMware for your next -alpha or -beta experiment? ;-) Mar 21 15:29:30 hah! Mar 21 15:29:49 mwester: that was my plan... but then I wanted to give btrfs a try... and could not resist :-) Mar 21 15:30:20 but yeah... installing the F11 alpha as kvm host will be one of the first things to do on the road to fill up the new disk Mar 21 16:03:10 mrmoku, would you please look why fbreader has got the patches whichc make it work well on openmoko reverted on SHR feeds? Mar 21 16:11:38 Sharwin_F: there is still 0001-fbreader-make-it-usable-on-openmoko.patch Mar 21 16:11:46 in shr-unstable if you mean that Mar 21 16:13:31 spaetz, but the package installed now from the repos is the same one as the one which got installed before I told mrmoku to add the patch Mar 21 16:13:46 so it looks like it has been reverted in some way... Mar 21 16:21:47 morning Mar 21 16:21:47 actually, i don't see any fbreader package in the unstable repo Mar 21 16:22:01 just a -doc pkg fron jan 29 Mar 21 16:22:54 $ opkg list | grep fbreader Mar 21 16:22:55 fbreader - 0.8.2a-r5 - FBreader is an ebook reader Mar 21 16:22:55 fbreader-dbg - 0.8.2a-r5 - FBreader is an ebook reader Mar 21 16:22:55 fbreader-dev - 0.8.2a-r5 - FBreader is an ebook reader Mar 21 16:23:13 I'm using shr-unstable Mar 21 16:23:21 but not from here http://build.shr-project.org/shr-unstable/ipk/armv4t/ Mar 21 16:23:30 DocScrutinizer: weird time for morning you choosed :) But hey, morning :) Mar 21 16:23:34 there is fbreader-doc and fbreader-dbg Mar 21 16:23:47 but no fbreader Mar 21 16:24:39 spaetz, where does it come from then? :O Mar 21 16:24:41 PaulFertser: sunset is near. time to leave my coffin Mar 21 16:25:21 there should be there, mrmoku put fbreader in some time ago Mar 21 16:30:57 hehehe Mar 21 16:31:00 The bats arise! Mar 21 16:32:01 spaetz: somehow fbreader is arch dependent... and thus in om-gta02 Mar 21 16:32:10 Dave: yours are mad doing their army nonsense this time of day. I told them they don't need anymore, but still.... Mar 21 16:32:18 Sharwin_F: sorry... reinstalled my system, so I'm not yet fully functional Mar 21 16:32:23 :] Mar 21 16:32:33 Train them well for me, won't you Joerg ;) Mar 21 16:33:26 mrmoku, ok, you're welcome :) Mar 21 16:34:16 Dave: I'm not sure but I tought you treaten them bad so they came to me. Don't think they will go back to do these nasty attacks for you Mar 21 16:35:28 oh well, too bad Mar 21 16:35:36 They're probably better off with you Mar 21 16:35:52 good day gents... I was wondering where I could find a dbus-dev package for FSO? Mar 21 16:36:37 Sharwin_F: can confirm though that the patch is not applied... :( Mar 21 16:38:40 ok ^^ Mar 21 16:48:40 mrmoku: weird that -doc and -dbg end up in armv4t Mar 21 16:49:05 spaetz: yeah, quite confusing... Mar 21 16:56:12 they should be all right? Mar 21 16:56:25 not -dbg Mar 21 17:06:12 completely OT question... what do people use as filemanager nowadays? Mar 21 17:06:31 on the desktop? Mar 21 17:06:32 for pc or freerunner? Mar 21 17:06:34 dolphin Mar 21 17:06:36 bumble :p Mar 21 17:06:39 desktop... Mar 21 17:06:45 ah ;p Mar 21 17:06:54 bumbl: yeah... was using dolphin for quite some time now... Mar 21 17:07:00 sometimes its too slow though Mar 21 17:09:43 bumbl: is there a way to get keyboard usable bookmarks? Mar 21 17:09:49 (in dolphin) Mar 21 17:10:17 dolphin and slow? Mar 21 17:10:26 are we talking of the same dolphin? Mar 21 17:10:50 I know it's mostly fast... but opening a folder with *lots* of files sucks Mar 21 17:11:53 * mrmoku is going to eat one of Dave's sandwiches before deciding on the filemanager issue :) Mar 21 17:12:02 i don't know of a way how to shortcut bookmarks Mar 21 17:12:23 mrmoku: which of my passwords have you sold? Mar 21 17:12:30 :) Mar 21 18:08:52 mrmoku: i'd include the latest patch wrt Glamo resume by Nicolas too. Mar 21 18:09:08 mrmoku: he just posted it. Mar 21 18:26:55 Is there fixed problem with segfaulting of e17 while using x11_16? Mar 21 18:39:13 bumbl: all of them... what did you think? got a good price for the complete pack.. right Dave? Mar 21 18:39:37 PaulFertser: ok. I'm almost at the point to be able to build again :P Mar 21 18:40:17 mrmoku: do you need a link to the letter or something? Mar 21 18:40:30 which list? om-devel? Mar 21 18:42:04 mrmoku: no, om-kernel Mar 21 18:42:37 mrmoku: well now that you have sandwitches bake us a new image Mar 21 18:42:40 ahh... ok reading that also... will get it when mails drop in again :--) Mar 21 18:42:41 ;) Mar 21 18:43:42 bumbl: I really want too... with most current efl. Mar 21 18:44:04 did not build yesterday and still have to try today... but I'm almost there Mar 21 18:47:14 Q-Master: I wouldn't be surprised if x11-16 crashed, but so far it seemed quite ok for me Mar 21 18:47:15 i think python-ecore will still fail Mar 21 18:52:00 bumbl: yep... are you reading e devel lists? Mar 21 18:53:36 no Mar 21 18:53:42 should i? Mar 21 18:54:40 I wanted to write a mail to it about the python-ecore problem... but my new harddisk made me not do it :P Mar 21 18:55:20 someone should do... and my mail functionality is not back up again :( Mar 21 18:55:44 so if I have to do it it will still take some time... Mar 21 18:56:16 I just tried with 39608... still the same Mar 21 18:56:27 yeah i tried too on the desktop Mar 21 18:57:04 I asked raster whom to ping... and he told me to bring it to the list Mar 21 19:05:17 for which part do we need python-ecore? do the elementary bindings depend on it? Mar 21 19:08:04 no Mar 21 19:08:13 python-etk depends on it Mar 21 19:08:22 + python-efl_utils Mar 21 19:08:28 and who needs that? Mar 21 19:08:37 dunno Mar 21 19:09:11 omoney needed it but i hope noone uses it at the moment Mar 21 19:09:23 hmm... I could just try to set an old rev for python-ecore... Mar 21 19:09:39 bumbl: why that? (omoney) Mar 21 19:09:40 well or just let it die gently Mar 21 19:10:01 mrmoku: omoney ms1 was usable but far from being good Mar 21 19:10:05 for daily usage Mar 21 19:10:54 have to find out what pulls it in then... Mar 21 19:11:45 packages/python/python-elementary_svn.bb:RDEPENDS += "python-evas python-ecore python-edje" Mar 21 19:11:54 looks like we have to solve it :( Mar 21 19:21:13 spaetz: sorry, I was a bit off. it crashes in illume theme in om heavily. Mar 21 19:21:29 I tried even to gdb this thing. Mar 21 19:31:43 mrmoku: afaik py-elm uses py-ecore Mar 21 19:31:58 yep Mar 21 19:32:22 we're doomed again :P Mar 21 19:32:38 python-elementary. RDEPENDS += "python-evas python-ecore python-edje" Mar 21 19:33:01 let's just remove python-elementary from the FR ;) Mar 21 19:33:12 * spaetz goes back to learning vala a bit Mar 21 19:33:20 haha Mar 21 19:33:33 nice stupid humor borat has Mar 21 19:36:30 borat? Mar 21 19:37:34 bumbl: yeah :P Mar 21 19:39:07 mrmoku: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borat:_Cultural_Learnings_of_America_for_Make_Benefit_Glorious_Nation_of_Kazakhstan Mar 21 19:47:09 poor kazakhstani :-P Mar 21 19:47:39 anyway I love borat's swimming trunks Mar 21 19:47:55 haha Mar 21 19:48:07 haha Mar 21 19:48:31 Best video ever: When he did the song Julie with Shaggy :P Mar 21 19:48:32 s/$/ :)/ of course :) Mar 21 19:57:06 :P Mar 21 19:57:42 PaulFertser: you mean the WSOD on device thread? Mar 21 20:15:08 mrmoku: yes. Mar 21 20:19:47 PaulFertser: whats going on there... Mar 21 20:20:58 mrmoku: Nicolas still fixing badly-written driver. I think he does the right thing, i trust his patches. Mar 21 20:21:42 PaulFertser: and I was suffering so badly from WSOD... don't want it back :P Mar 21 20:22:33 mrmoku: fixing the driver shouldn't do much harm ;) It's not enabling new scary stuff (like deep sleep or smth), it's fixing timings and locks instead, afaik. Mar 21 20:23:08 PaulFertser: ok :-) Mar 21 20:30:01 raster: how would I refer to an anchorblock in an entry? Mar 21 20:30:28 ie what do I have to put in the entry, so I get some event or can assign some cb function? Mar 21 20:36:04 spaetz: you could have a look at the elementary_test app Mar 21 20:40:23 true Mar 21 20:40:36 will do, good hint, thanks Mar 21 21:05:34 http://www.dbus.es/ lol :) Mar 21 21:06:03 setting locale to es_ES makes one discover new things :) Mar 21 21:06:51 haha Mar 21 21:10:49 TAsn: hey, i use some shrink tubing after bending diy stylus ends to protect FR screen from sharp metallic edges while it's in my pocket near the stylus. Got the idea? Mar 21 21:15:18 yeah Mar 21 21:16:32 I think. Mar 21 21:16:40 I just bend the wire Mar 21 21:16:57 but your idea is better Mar 21 21:17:07 please add it to the wiki with pictures ;] Mar 21 21:20:08 TAsn: probably i wouldn't bother with the shrink tubing, but i've already scratched the screen (hopefully only the protection) with a small pcb with through-hole components i put in my pocket with FR. Mar 21 21:20:38 PaulFertser: carrying the debug board ? :) Mar 21 21:21:17 wpwrak: no, i've no debug board :) Some small broken atmel programmer i was going to rip usb-uart converter from. Mar 21 21:22:01 moin werner Mar 21 21:22:11 wpwrak: how are you doing btw? Cured the jet-lag? Mar 21 21:22:22 Greetings Mr. Werner! Mar 21 21:22:28 wpwrak: nice to see you again, yes :) Mar 21 21:22:47 PaulFertser: naw, jet-lag is still strong. it'll take about two weeks to disappear completely Mar 21 21:23:12 two weeks in .tw? or three? Mar 21 21:23:14 PaulFertser: thanks :) Mar 21 21:23:39 wpwrak: the more you think about it, the stronger it gets :) Mar 21 21:23:42 * DocScrutinizer is constantly jetlagged for at least 30y then ;) Mar 21 21:23:59 mwester: i've been in .tw for four weeks. jet-lag takes about two weeks to go away. it's actually worse when returning home, because you can relax Mar 21 21:24:13 four weeks! Wow. Mar 21 21:24:20 DocScrutinizer: must be a hell of a trip :) Mar 21 21:25:06 well my inner clock never been in sync with planet :D Mar 21 21:25:14 i'm used to it Mar 21 21:25:36 mwester: i returned home last thursday. yesterday i already managed to go and eat at a restaurant without embarrassing myself :) Mar 21 21:25:45 my inner clock is just two time zones west of the rest of me, is all. I'm ok with that, except when someone schedules early morning meetings. Mar 21 21:26:23 eew, those are nasty Mar 21 21:26:56 Yeah, I keep having to remind people that 6AM is still "Last Night" as far as I'm concerned. ;-) Mar 21 21:27:08 * DocScrutinizer hates early morning, no matter what his inner clock is like Mar 21 21:28:09 Many of my customers are a timezone ahead of me, and the automakers especially like to start an hour earlier in the summer. Rather sucks, sometimes! Mar 21 21:28:44 hmm /me assimilates quite well to different time zones Mar 21 21:29:48 basically I tend to ignore them Mar 21 21:30:10 "A recent study in hamsters showed that sildenafil (known commercially as Viagra) aided in a 50% faster recovery from shifts" Mar 21 21:30:18 as long as i get some caffeine or Theobromine Mar 21 21:30:54 theobromine? wtf! Mar 21 21:30:55 PaulFertser: :-D I read that somewhere too, and thought to myself that the "side effects" would be problematic on business trips! Mar 21 21:31:13 DocScrutinizer: theobromine is the best thing you can get Mar 21 21:31:43 it's like caffeine but heathier and it spreads its effect over the day Mar 21 21:31:59 ok, done for today Mar 21 21:32:00 then you bet it's illegal in germany ;) Mar 21 21:32:04 * mwester needs to cut a 500GB SATA drive in half, so he can add 250GB of storage to a different server. :-( Mar 21 21:32:27 DocScrutinizer: well i think chocolate isn't prohibited in germany Mar 21 21:32:39 :p Mar 21 21:32:47 mwester: chainsaw? ;) Mar 21 21:33:18 mwester: nfs Mar 21 21:33:20 mwester: please take a photo :P Mar 21 21:33:21 * bumbl hides Mar 21 21:33:50 lol Mar 21 21:33:52 I have four 80GB drives lying around. I could use LVM -- but the server is a 1U server and has only two bays for drives. (and NFS is not an option, as it needs to be on an isolated network) Mar 21 21:34:59 So... I can spend the weekend moving data around so that this will work by Monday morning. Or I can run out to the store, and spend a small bucket of money on a hard drive. What to do? Mar 21 21:35:30 * PaulFertser would spend the weekend thinking about what to do Mar 21 21:35:55 i'd pop over to a store Mar 21 21:36:30 because one never can have enough storage Mar 21 21:36:38 PaulFertser, why do you carry pcbs in your fr pocket?! Mar 21 21:36:51 I'm thinking the store, as well. One _never_ needs *less* disk space, so I'll need the drive some day anyway, right? Mar 21 21:36:53 TAsn: by mistake Mar 21 21:37:01 yep Mar 21 21:37:06 I don't even carry my keys in the same pocket Mar 21 21:37:11 same for the wallet Mar 21 21:37:13 only the fr Mar 21 21:37:14 ;] Mar 21 21:37:23 TAsn: i don't have a wallet Mar 21 21:37:29 PaulFertser, ;] Mar 21 21:37:36 * mwester is off to find a disk drive. Mar 21 21:38:43 TAsn: i carry only my my old student card and a portable player with the freerunner, so it's usually safe. Mar 21 21:38:59 But the stylus could become problematic. Mar 21 21:39:00 ;] Mar 21 21:39:03 old student card? Mar 21 21:39:37 TAsn: yeah, i'm not a student anymore :( Mar 21 21:39:54 so why are you carrying it? Mar 21 21:40:37 he might still get the benefits Mar 21 21:41:25 TAsn: no, i just carry a special id card in it that is used to open the door to enter my institute. The student card is a small "book": http://img0.liveinternet.ru/images/attach/b/2/0/156/156720_Izobrazhenie.jpg Mar 21 21:41:53 TAsn: now everybody on the -cdevel knows i'm insane doing stupid stuff for no apparent reason! How could you do that to me? Mar 21 21:41:57 ;) Mar 21 21:42:18 man, you did that to yourself! Mar 21 21:42:30 I only made you be true to yourself. Mar 21 21:43:16 insdustrial university? Mar 21 21:43:37 bumbl: it's not mine, just a photo found by quick googling. Mar 21 21:43:59 s/insdustrial/industrial/ Mar 21 21:44:00 bumbl meant: industrial university? Mar 21 21:44:02 * mrmoku spent a small bucket of money for a new harddrive and has to move data around anyway... Mar 21 21:44:05 ah ok Mar 21 21:44:33 pfew Mar 21 21:44:51 bumbl: the insitute i graduated from is called "russian state technological university" and before that it was called "moscow aviation technological institute". Not a good place to study at :( Mar 21 21:45:23 two months ago i cleaned my backup disk as one would have cleaned the house Mar 21 21:45:46 PaulFertser: :( Mar 21 21:46:02 vala-settings got a .desktop file. and sliders for the timeouts. Mar 21 21:46:07 but as long as you got a "good" job Mar 21 21:46:10 bumbl: but i met some good friends there, so overall i enjoyed it. Mar 21 21:46:54 bumbl: and i'm trying to help freshman students to understand basics of C programming, so i haven't really left my institute. Mar 21 21:47:14 ah yeah bad C Mar 21 21:47:52 i shouldn't have read "The C programming language" from 1988 Mar 21 21:48:02 now, once I hooked up the timeout sliders to actually perform an action, I think it will be usable. Mar 21 21:48:03 PaulFertser: so #openmoko-cdevel is pretty much your "dayjob" ? are you a sentient AI, living in git and feeding off commits ? :) Mar 21 21:48:08 as an introduction to programming Mar 21 21:48:11 some years ago Mar 21 21:50:21 wpwrak: i mostly chat about things instead of really hacking :-/ And i have a dayjob too (part-time). I take part in embedded systems developing. But i enjoy teaching too, that's why i'm still at the institute. Too bad most of my students are not exactly bright. Mar 21 21:50:47 PaulFertser: so you compensate here. excellent ;-) Mar 21 21:50:47 PaulFertser: that's the definition of student ;) Mar 21 21:51:13 at least here Mar 21 21:51:26 most students = stupid and lazy Mar 21 21:51:58 ...zzz ZZZ Mar 21 21:53:07 bumbl: i really hoped that after i show the students that what is needed is actually simple, they'd do it instead of finding reasons to avoid studying. Was wrong obviously. Not enough motivation. If only they spend all the time at the institute and there was not other funny stuff to do (like fooling around, working for money, drinking etc)... Mar 21 21:54:24 talking about motivation Mar 21 21:54:29 bumbl: and as a freedom lover i don't try to oblige them to do anything. At least we can have a good talk about unrelated things because they don't hate me, but it doesn't seem to be exactly productive. Mar 21 21:54:32 PaulFertser: isn't fooling around and drinking pretty much what make student life so appealing ? :) Mar 21 21:55:01 * bumbl has to motivate myself to write a letter of motivation for my holiday job Mar 21 21:55:58 wpwrak: not if it hurts hacking (at least for me) :) Mar 21 21:56:10 hah Mar 21 21:56:27 DAVES Mar 21 21:56:41 And most of my students are using windows :( Mar 21 21:56:55 PaulFertser: you're such a failure :) Mar 21 21:56:57 eew Mar 21 21:57:19 DocScrutinizer: now we know what he's doing here. escapism. Mar 21 21:57:33 wpwrak: i'm still hoping my efforts will pay of in a year. Mar 21 21:57:38 :) Mar 21 21:57:51 wpwrak: it's like you didn't knew it from the beginning :) Mar 21 21:57:54 :o Mar 21 21:59:02 Dave: what? core meltdown? Mar 21 22:02:16 wpwrak: talking seriously, i'm new to the teaching; so i'm experimenting a lot, trying to do what i can. And the level of motivation is really low here. Do you know that large part of russian male students go to the institute to avoid otherwise obligatory military service? And the girls... I don't know why do most of them go to the institute... Mar 21 22:03:07 And the institute i'm in is not exactly elite, that means some more bright students are studying somewhere else... Mar 21 22:03:12 hehe, sounds like .tw (military) Mar 21 22:04:00 though there the fugitives have to work for industry Mar 21 22:04:49 :o Mar 21 22:05:24 PaulFertser: so you went straight into teaching after graduating ? Mar 21 22:05:48 wpwrak: yup. Mar 21 22:06:01 PaulFertser: then you should have knows exactly what you got yourself into :) Mar 21 22:06:23 PaulFertser: they go there because of the male students ;) Mar 21 22:07:15 bumbl: is it a reality or a joke? Mar 21 22:07:32 i would say in each joke there is a bit of reality Mar 21 22:07:34 ;) Mar 21 22:08:43 wpwrak: yes, i knew that exactly. But i hoped i could make education to be more fun to them. I can't say i failed, it's still much better (at least funnier) than it was for me. Mar 21 22:09:25 PaulFertser: despite your poor jokes ;P Mar 21 22:09:40 DocScrutinizer: yeah Mar 21 22:09:45 :D Mar 21 22:10:17 PaulFertser: probably students never change Mar 21 22:11:33 DocScrutinizer: 01:09 <@PaulFertser> rivernight: Are my jokes poor btw? 01:10 <+rivernight> PaulFertser: No, I don't think so)) (one of my female students) Mar 21 22:12:18 PaulFertser: she's right Mar 21 22:13:30 DocScrutinizer: btw, this particular student is good. And she also studies at other place in the evening to become a sound engineer. And she gave me Kortasar book (Hopscotch) which is exceptionnaly good. Mar 21 22:14:45 sound engineer, cool. One of my favourite domains Mar 21 22:15:09 no idea about Kortasar Mar 21 22:15:11 My brother does that btw. Mar 21 22:15:34 DocScrutinizer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopscotch_(Julio_Cort%C3%A1zar_novel) Mar 21 22:16:16 All in all, i still hope that at least some of my students will joing free software "community". There's hope! Mar 21 22:16:55 well tell them that one could get paid for developing oss too Mar 21 22:17:58 bumbl: sure Mar 21 22:18:23 and you can be oss enthusiast without being a "commie" Mar 21 22:19:42 Oh, and my "know-how" is to motivate my students to learn technical english more. Not all of them understand that it's a necessity rather than goodie. I think now they got the idea. Mar 21 22:19:58 bumbl: I don't think anybody is scared being a "commie" there ;P Mar 21 22:20:22 DocScrutinizer: wouldn't be so sure there Mar 21 22:21:35 Единая Россия is not a communistic party Mar 21 22:22:10 bumbl: are you sure? It looks much like the soviet party. Mar 21 22:23:11 well i can't judge it as good as you can but they differ in some major points with the soviet party Mar 21 22:23:52 bumbl: both doing nothing leaving all the decisions to the "head" (was primary secretary, then the president, now he's prime minister with friends). Mar 21 22:25:10 yeah but the decisions of the head differ Mar 21 22:25:22 bumbl: but we're talking about the party ;) Mar 21 22:25:30 yeah Mar 21 22:25:49 КПРФ <- those are the traditional commies Mar 21 22:26:52 while united russia imo tries to imitate american political structures with a more-or-less dictature Mar 21 22:27:15 s/dictature/dictatorship/ Mar 21 22:27:15 bumbl meant: while united russia imo tries to imitate american political structures with a more-or-less dictatorship Mar 21 22:27:44 bumbl: KPRF are hypocrite fuckers rather than a real force. Mar 21 22:28:57 bumbl: "united russia" supports building of "vertical authority management". In our large country centralisation really sucks, imho. Mar 21 22:34:54 Let's have political evenings at #openmoko-cdevel. We've already discussed Israel, Russia. What's next? Germany? France? USA? Poland? Australia? Mar 21 22:35:14 * dent sees what he missed Mar 21 22:35:25 :) Mar 21 22:36:07 Ainulindale: IRQ... I just recalled you asked me to remind you of that libframeworkd-glib patch I sent you :) Mar 21 22:37:01 haha Mar 21 22:37:09 let's open up Mar 21 22:37:15 #openmoko-politics Mar 21 22:37:26 #openmoko-flames Mar 21 22:37:41 topic: rants about openmoko and real life politics and Mar 21 22:40:15 bumbl: start your rant :) Mar 21 22:41:03 with paroli there was the chance that stuff could be done right and what does om? they bork it ;) Mar 21 22:42:22 Taa-daaam. next Mar 21 22:43:08 bumbl: btw, i wouldn't judge about paroli yet. After all, i haven't tried to use it. Mar 21 22:46:16 except for fullscreen and unfinishedness it is quite nice Mar 21 22:47:05 bumbl: fullscreen is not that hard to "cure". Mar 21 22:48:05 raster: Slider event "changed" is not called when I initially do a value_set Mar 21 22:48:33 wouldn't it make sense to call that callback then? Mar 21 22:48:41 let's call it reinventing the wheel Mar 21 22:49:02 anyway paroli will be better than 2008.x qt apps Mar 21 22:49:13 spaetz: seems reasonable Mar 21 22:49:44 I'd think so. At least this is what I expected Mar 21 22:57:08 spaetz: still there needs to be a way to update slider for external changes of controlled value which does *not* trigger a value writeback Mar 21 23:01:42 spaetz: see example of multiple mixers concurrently accessing audio mixer settings. Mar 21 23:03:31 when you read out current value to set slider accordingly, you must not write it back some moments later on. It might have changed meanwhile Mar 21 23:04:58 DocScrutinizer: agreed on the slider updating. One of the issues is that e.g. frameworkd doesn't issue any signals if a timeout changes Mar 21 23:05:09 so I cannot dynamically update the sliders Mar 21 23:05:29 nasty. need to poll then Mar 21 23:05:50 :). I ignore the isssue for now. Mar 21 23:06:00 Enough new diffiult stuff to learn. Mar 21 23:06:02 fair enough Mar 21 23:08:17 bah Mar 21 23:08:54 basically frameworkd had to learn to callback on change of any value. dunno whether a centralized callback would do, or a dedicated one for each value was more cute Mar 21 23:12:56 anyway concurrent opposing change of a value is a nice topic. Niche case with all sorts of nasties Mar 21 23:16:38 uggh Mar 21 23:16:44 * Dave curses over some proprietary crap Mar 21 23:17:02 lol Mar 21 23:17:42 props flamewar resurection ;-) Mar 21 23:18:19 Dave: yeah, tell us about it :) Mar 21 23:18:43 *ENRAGES* Mar 21 23:18:57 * Dave is now known as Davezilla Mar 21 23:19:20 hehe Mar 21 23:19:28 * mwester shakes his head at silly Japanese movies, and changes the channel. Mar 21 23:19:38 :P Mar 21 23:19:48 wish I could breath fire on some of these people ;) Mar 21 23:19:56 Go davezilla, GOOO! Mar 21 23:19:58 mwester: other channel shows silly Japanese anime series, i bet. Mar 21 23:20:12 Gah. Probably true. Mar 21 23:20:19 hahaha Mar 21 23:21:24 US animation is so much better. Just compare any Miyazaki movie with the masterpiece called "12oz Mouse"! Mar 21 23:22:21 * mwester won't comment for fear of showing just how ancient he is. Mar 21 23:22:46 * mwester just says: "Meep meep!" Mar 21 23:22:54 :D Mar 21 23:22:55 yay! Mar 21 23:23:07 hey, that is not ancient!!! Mar 21 23:23:15 Acme moko Mar 21 23:23:44 I fear we would've been better off with just one of those ACME products that Wile E. bought, back in the day :( Mar 21 23:23:50 Had the freerunner been mfc'ed by them. Mar 21 23:23:53 I think if every kid in the world saw http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nausicaa_of_the_valley_of_the_wind the world would be a much better place. Mar 21 23:24:08 Really Mar 21 23:24:17 Yes Mar 21 23:24:31 Paul :) Mar 21 23:24:37 I can't decide what to install on my "new" server. I need a CentOS install, so the question is: Should I install Fedora 10, and create a CentOS Virtual Machine -- or should I just install CentOS 5.2 on the hardware? Mar 21 23:24:53 Install debian. Mar 21 23:25:05 What would you put on a real server (1U Dell)? (And no, Debian does not go on servers!) Mar 21 23:25:12 >:( Mar 21 23:25:15 party pooper Mar 21 23:25:21 Not me. Mar 21 23:25:23 fine, then what, gentoo hardened, or fbsd? Mar 21 23:25:33 or do you now "swing that way" ? Mar 21 23:25:36 :P Mar 21 23:25:42 I've only ever seen RHEL, and the occaisional SUSE install in the real world on servers. Mar 21 23:26:13 I guess you don't get out much. Mar 21 23:26:23 Though, really, it largely depends on the area :) Mar 21 23:26:33 No, I don't leave the central US much. Mar 21 23:26:39 heh, too bad Mar 21 23:26:45 We're rather conservative here. Mar 21 23:26:49 Mwester, you ride many horses in your day? Mar 21 23:26:56 haha conservative... redhat... cute. Mar 21 23:27:08 Nope. They hadn't evolved large enough yet. Mar 21 23:27:23 hahahaha Mar 21 23:27:27 aw Mar 21 23:28:52 mwester: you're going to miss the nice debates with Andy? ;) Mar 21 23:29:55 hehe Mar 21 23:30:11 I wish no ill to Andy, personally -- I hope he finds something quickly. And I think this was a bad time for this change for Om. Mar 21 23:30:25 No kidding Mar 21 23:30:27 :[ Mar 21 23:30:58 mwester: 100% ack Mar 21 23:31:12 But, to be honest, I might feel more like sending patches to the kernel list, and discussing same. I suspect the community will _need_ to become more involved, as it seems Om has made some large changes... and I do not suspect that we know the whole of it yet. Mar 21 23:31:38 I always knew Sean had ulterior motives :( Mar 21 23:31:46 I knew it was a conspiracy! Mar 21 23:31:52 you might be quite right again Mar 21 23:31:53 :P Mar 21 23:32:01 Napoleon has a quote one should remember, Dave. Mar 21 23:32:02 Sadly so Mar 21 23:32:36 "Never ascribe to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity" -- I think Sean let his ego get between him and success with Om. Mar 21 23:33:02 But that's my opinion. Mar 21 23:33:19 I think I borked my android... again =/ Mar 21 23:33:33 And that's all it is. The truth may be something else, and I eagerly await the book that I hope one of the team will write about the days at Openmoko. Mar 21 23:33:40 Community needs a leader. Not another bunch of small projects. Mar 21 23:33:43 borking androids is a crime Mar 21 23:34:07 Mwester : I think it was always there... Mar 21 23:34:32 * mwester says a bad word as he looks more closely at the CentOS 5 DVD, and notes that it's an old 5.1 DVD. :( Mar 21 23:34:34 Joerg's Memoirs? Mar 21 23:34:35 mwester: we put centos 5.2 on all our servers at work Mar 21 23:35:10 rwhitby: Working well, I presume? Mar 21 23:35:28 works hard and long! Mar 21 23:35:29 Dave: my time at OM starting relatively late in OM's livespan Mar 21 23:35:46 yeah, that's not to deny or belittle what you brought to the company at all though :) Mar 21 23:35:59 mwester: yep Mar 21 23:36:03 Some of us really appreciate your work and the successes and inspirations it brought Mar 21 23:36:44 Then I shall give CentOS 5.2 a try. :) Mar 21 23:37:15 Dave: thanks :-) Mar 21 23:37:19 * mwester says another bad word as he notices that his stack of round disc-like objects does not contain any recordable DVDs. Where have they all gone? Mar 21 23:37:45 Why is it that stuff is always missing when you most need it? How can Murphy be so pervasive? :-D Mar 21 23:38:02 :D Mar 21 23:38:28 mwester: DVD-RW ftw Mar 21 23:39:38 :( All the RWs are CD, it seems. Time to go check the wife's desk. Mar 21 23:40:22 rut roh Mar 21 23:41:42 You know, it occurs to me that building an SD card slot into these devices would make a lot of sense. You can boot off it, install from it, and they're much smaller to store. Mar 21 23:42:23 boot from SD? really? Mar 21 23:42:24 But then the real data-center hardware doesn't use CD/DVD drives either. Mar 21 23:42:52 boo hiss Mar 21 23:43:19 Joerg, See: Treo Mar 21 23:43:22 ;) Mar 21 23:43:27 DocScrutinizer: mine _claims_ to be able to boot from a usb flash device -- I expect I should be able to boot from a bootable image on an SD card in an external USB SD-reader. It's just a matter of building that in. Mar 21 23:43:28 treo treo treo Mar 21 23:43:43 mwester, shouldn't be too hard Mar 21 23:43:46 some do Mar 21 23:43:51 ack Mar 21 23:44:12 :o Mar 21 23:44:13 Or better yet -- I should set up my FR with the usb gadgetfs thing, and boot the server off my phone. :) Mar 21 23:44:20 haha Mar 21 23:44:52 hey, it can't be any more epically failicious than when I tried to compile the linux kernel on the freerunner Mar 21 23:45:01 Totally impractical, but something is really appealing to me about that... I may investigate that just so I can say I did it. :-D Mar 21 23:45:41 Mwester, hey, I used to use one of my freerunners as a package repository, and then the others just used it as a pkg src Mar 21 23:45:44 ;) Mar 21 23:45:47 Dave: muahahaaa Mar 21 23:46:14 we all do crazy things, and enjoy them... until things inevitably go downhill... or cataclysmically wrong :D Mar 21 23:46:31 (e.g. chernobylphone) Mar 21 23:46:54 native gentoo for FR XD Mar 21 23:46:58 bwahaha Mar 21 23:48:05 still a nice academic exercise Mar 21 23:48:27 I suppose Mar 21 23:48:34 proof of concept... or lunacy Mar 21 23:48:38 (don't forget the swap though ) Mar 21 23:48:39 :D Mar 21 23:49:27 lunacy, definitely Mar 21 23:50:53 OM would have succeeded if only they marketed the batrunner! Mar 21 23:51:02 and used a slightly different form factor ;) Mar 21 23:51:58 Dave: lol, batrunner :D Mar 21 23:53:11 na na na na na na na na moookoooo!! Mar 21 23:54:11 i think the problem with om the company is that a lot of people there don't have the spirit of opensource, they are just interested in money or i don't what else but not freedom... Mar 21 23:54:56 :o Mar 21 23:55:42 mooooooooooooneyyyyyyy, gimmegimmegimme Mar 21 23:55:49 hahaha Mar 21 23:55:59 go go gadget freerunner! Mar 21 23:57:26 but well, i don't want to complain too much, if om 200x.x had been good, maybe there would be no SHR, and SHR is really great, nice product of teamwork =) Mar 21 23:58:04 yeah but probably would have been farther progressed had we not cut out vital or useful stuff from the earlier versions. Mar 21 23:58:14 Hence the whole need for the B2B movement. Mar 21 23:58:42 sakkara: gimme your money. NOW! ;D Mar 21 23:58:45 yeah, maybe... Mar 21 23:58:49 hahaha Mar 21 23:58:56 lol Mar 21 23:59:16 hey DocScrutinizer, whats up with the Y-cable thingie? Mar 21 23:59:19 haha, In that sense, Joerg, OM could take a lesson from the major Carriers, since that's pretty much their single marketing strategy or slogan Mar 21 23:59:45 "Give us your money!" ... Oh, you want something in return? Oh, well... here's some crappy phone. Bye! :D Mar 21 23:59:56 xD Mar 22 00:00:23 in comparison to iphone, fr is really cheap... Mar 22 00:00:41 sakkara: what's up with it? problems finding the howto? Mar 22 00:01:10 Problems breaking it? :D Mar 22 00:01:11 sakkara: hardware is cheap, software is expensive. ;P Mar 22 00:01:35 nah, MP for 99$ retail will start in a week Mar 22 00:01:48 DocScrutinizer: no no, just wanted to know if you ordered usb-cables from the us Mar 22 00:01:49 wat Mar 22 00:02:23 sakkara: got me the european version Mar 22 00:02:58 DocScrutinizer: link? Mar 22 00:03:08 see wiki Mar 22 00:03:12 ok Mar 22 00:03:17 eten eten eten?
