Mar 09 07:41:17 nop Mar 09 07:41:23 thats the strange thing Mar 09 07:42:43 i was at university. i used it, it worked all fine. it put it in my pants pocket and ride home by bike Mar 09 07:42:52 10 min later i take it tou Mar 09 07:43:06 .. it out and woops there goes the white screen Mar 09 07:44:59 p0seidon: :( Mar 09 07:45:11 p0seidon: probably DocScrutinizer will tell you more about it Mar 09 07:47:14 thx. gotta get breakfast now ;-) Mar 09 07:48:54 morning Mar 09 08:15:45 good morning Mar 09 08:17:43  Mar 09 10:36:09 PaulFert`: what should I tell when screen cracked ? Mar 09 10:37:19 PaulFert`: driving bike you might not even notice hiiting some part of bike with FR's screen Mar 09 10:39:53 DocScrutinizer: probably you know some way of obtaining a spare part or smth... Mar 09 10:40:09 trisoft Mar 09 10:41:19 TPE isn't prepared to send any spare parts to end users. neither is Suzhou Mar 09 10:42:31 DocScrutinizer: ok, that's a valuable info. Will tell p0seidon next time i see him. Mar 09 10:42:56 let me put it this way: for TPE its less expensive to send a whole device than a part Mar 09 10:45:13 all resellers get a certain amount of "spare devices" to canibalize for repair purposes, afaik Mar 09 10:47:00 BTW, on some PDA's a mechanical measure exist to protect the screen from accidental touches and more severe impact. Too bad there's nothing like that for FR. Mar 09 10:48:10 talking bout clamshell? Mar 09 10:50:37 DocScrutinizer: smth like that: http://img.tomshardware.com/de/2005/02/23/luxurioeser_business_pda_hp_ipaq_hx4700/hx4700-flip.jpg Mar 09 10:50:55 And it's easily detachable. Mar 09 10:51:55 PaulFert`: go to the nearest HW shop, buy some thick transparent plastic sheet & duct tape :) Mar 09 10:52:29 hmm, the ME of Neo is conceived very ambivalent Mar 09 10:52:30 rhkfin_: not easily detachable, not allowing easy access to the battery compartment and disassembly of the whole device. Mar 09 10:55:11 I did bad things to some devices and yet never seen a broken LCD-glass Mar 09 10:56:16 there are reports of devices surviving drops from 2.floor Mar 09 10:56:34 Any reports of broken touch screen by water/snow? Mar 09 10:56:57 not to my knowledge Mar 09 10:57:11 ok Mar 09 10:57:14 good Mar 09 10:57:39 I shocked LCM with freeze spray (-58C) Mar 09 10:57:57 and it still worked (a bit slow i'd guess :) Mar 09 10:58:35 not impact *at all* (except of occasional triggering WSOD) Mar 09 11:00:01 not bad :) Mar 09 11:01:54 may it got slow. didn't notice as I just used text console Mar 09 11:03:09 nothing really bad anyway. no "c'mon start to scroll" Mar 09 11:03:21 :) Mar 09 11:03:28 Sound's good Mar 09 11:03:43 yeah arctic proof Mar 09 11:05:03 'Finland proof' (except someone just told to have some problems with the touch screen after it got some snow on it ..) Mar 09 11:05:03 There is a layer of air above the LCD, between it and a touchscreen Mar 09 11:05:07 2h freezer (-22C). Worked like charm. Takile feeling even improved ;-) Mar 09 11:05:15 heh :) Mar 09 11:05:23 this will somewhat insulate it. Mar 09 11:05:51 moisture getting into the phone, or condensation may in principle cause problems Mar 09 11:05:58 yes.. Mar 09 11:06:08 yup Mar 09 11:06:22 freeze / room temperature - cycle is no good I guess.. Mar 09 11:06:25 though r-ts is sealed Mar 09 11:07:06 rhkfin_: and yet that's exactly what I did Mar 09 11:07:19 temp cycling can be bad - even though it takes it once Mar 09 11:07:52 going from -20 to +20 a hundred times or so, ... Mar 09 11:08:01 hmm ok Mar 09 11:08:32 though many are used to stuff dying in that sort of circumstance. Mar 09 11:08:40 AIUI Mar 09 11:08:47 noncondensing it should take it Mar 09 11:08:48 designing for extremes is fun! Mar 09 11:09:21 Currently doing a project to take -55C for a few days Mar 09 11:09:28 Balloon. Mar 09 11:09:35 cool Mar 09 11:09:51 forecast? Mar 09 11:09:59 forecast? Mar 09 11:10:13 weather obs & forecast Mar 09 11:10:17 no Mar 09 11:10:19 hobby Mar 09 11:10:23 ahh Mar 09 11:10:59 just a simple one with some ballast, and filled with hydrogen, to get to ~30Km, and sit there for a bit. Mar 09 11:11:06 reporting back over HF radio Mar 09 11:11:16 :-D Mar 09 11:11:27 poor mans sputnik Mar 09 11:11:30 ~30bps or so Mar 09 11:12:07 take care of jets! ;-) Mar 09 11:12:37 know Nena "99 balloons"? Mar 09 11:13:15 It's a 20m diameter foil sphere - they'll avoid it just fine :) Mar 09 11:13:15 (though impact would not be worse than birdstrike by design Mar 09 11:13:32 depending on your local military some ppl might get upset Mar 09 11:15:34 I'd avoid fingerprints Mar 09 11:15:34 it's actually legal. Mar 09 11:15:35 where? Mar 09 11:15:35 for me - this does depend on country Mar 09 11:15:35 uk Mar 09 11:15:35 ok Mar 09 11:15:36 Andd yes. (nena) Mar 09 11:15:36 There is nothing saying the balloon can't be foil - though it may surprise :) Mar 09 11:15:36 UK authority is used to deal with a spleeny people ;D Mar 09 11:16:28 in D I'm sure you need a pile of paperwork Mar 09 11:17:16 SpeedEvil: use silver foil ;) Mar 09 11:17:31 * shellevil goes to take up some floorboards. Mar 09 11:17:31 wave Mar 09 11:17:43 like those emergency blankets Mar 09 11:17:58 shellevil: cya Mar 09 11:31:21 doc|work: cheap aluminium foil is actually reasonably priced and suitable - if you can join it Mar 09 11:31:25 DocScrutinizer Mar 09 11:31:46 total budget on this is _low_ - 50 quid for the initial attempt. Mar 09 11:32:52 hmm, those blankets are more rugged. alufoil rather delicate Mar 09 11:33:02 that's part of the fun. Mar 09 11:33:12 it's actually not delicate - it's quite strong Mar 09 11:33:17 as long as you don't get a tear Mar 09 11:33:53 but probably blankets too expensive for this null-budget Mar 09 11:35:53 all radar operators will sill their coffee XD Mar 09 11:36:02 :) Mar 09 11:37:04 sPill Mar 09 11:48:47 SpeedEvil: where to get the H2 from for less than 50 bucks Mar 09 11:50:09 Atmospheric pressure at 30Km is _much_ less than sea-level. Mar 09 11:51:09 For a first cut - natural gas from my kitchen. Mar 09 11:52:45 hmm Mar 09 11:58:05 huuu Mar 09 11:58:11 soo Mar 09 11:58:18 anyone experienced with bazaar here? Mar 09 11:59:51 no Mar 09 12:00:45 Fougner: are you experienced with metaquestions? Mar 09 12:01:34 SpeedEvil: CH4:16g/mol N2:14g/mol Mar 09 12:02:18 N - 14g/mol Mar 09 12:02:24 N2 28g Mar 09 12:02:33 duh Mar 09 12:03:13 k Mar 09 12:04:11 henk, no need to =) Mar 09 12:35:00 Dave: is that a pipe-dream clone? Mar 09 12:40:05 nuclear_eclipse :D Mar 09 12:40:23 First I thought it was a net ripoff, but then yes, I noticed that :D Mar 09 12:40:51 freakin sweet :) Mar 09 12:40:57 :] Mar 09 12:41:02 hm? what are you talking about?

Mar 09 12:49:13 * nuclear_eclipse <3 frozen bubble for classtime :P Mar 09 12:49:31 would be great to have it on the openmoko :D Mar 09 12:49:44 accel and tap would work ok prolly Mar 09 12:49:51 gotta restart irssi with new configs Mar 09 12:50:10 * pabs3 wonders how well primrose would work on the openmoko Mar 09 12:54:21 :D Mar 09 12:54:36 http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/3dbe8b7162d816d6599df049c458299f.png Mar 09 12:54:47 Dave: !! Mar 09 12:55:06 :D Mar 09 12:57:24 Dave, do you know where's the package? :D Mar 09 12:57:41 No, sorry... Mar 09 12:57:47 shouldn't be too hard to find though :) Mar 09 12:58:27 Ohh.. PipeDreams :D Mar 09 12:59:09 who are these images from? Mar 09 12:59:10 uh oh, now everybody knows ;) Mar 09 13:00:18 PipeDreams? Mar 09 13:00:38 you can get it here: http://www.opkg.org/package_155.html Mar 09 13:02:31 :O Mar 09 13:02:39 CRAAAAAAAAP!!!! Mar 09 13:02:41 Dave! Mar 09 13:02:46 * Dave hides Mar 09 13:02:58 I think I'm missing something here.. Mar 09 13:03:08 I'm trying to setup bazaar (bzr) with trac Mar 09 13:03:28 but trac won't recognize the protocol for bzr Mar 09 13:03:30 uhm Mar 09 13:09:13 would be great this. Is it already implemented in SHR-unstable? http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/18184d6d66fd92fbaa69ed6a38f8c819.png Mar 09 13:09:31 and apply the same with calls Mar 09 13:11:26 bleh! Mar 09 13:13:35 sharwin_f: what illume theme is that? Mar 09 13:13:45 it looks much cleaner (=faster?) than the default Mar 09 13:14:30 gromgull, don't know, but looking throught all the photos I'm seeing lots of good things I didn't know where done :D Mar 09 13:14:31 gromez, the default for SHR? Mar 09 13:15:00 it's the unstable branch though.. Mar 09 13:15:01 ah interesting - so SHR does not use the default FSO theme Mar 09 13:15:15 gromez, FSO is just a middle layer Mar 09 13:15:23 the FSO distribution Mar 09 13:15:24 i mean Mar 09 13:15:28 yeah Mar 09 13:15:31 the image you can flash :) Mar 09 13:15:34 whatever you call it Mar 09 13:15:35 that's just a demo app Mar 09 13:15:42 so it's not really a theme, I think Mar 09 13:15:52 it's the default illume theme Mar 09 13:16:02 rasterman says it works nicely on more capable devices Mar 09 13:16:07 Since you also seem to know SHR, what dialer app do they use? Zhone? Mar 09 13:16:11 rasterman talks bs ;) Mar 09 13:16:12 i guess not Mar 09 13:16:44 :) Mar 09 13:16:45 I don't know what app they use, but it seems quite integrated Mar 09 13:17:23 Zhone is, basically, an user interface no? Mar 09 13:17:45 fsck, what do I know.. Mar 09 13:18:07 the UI for phone features, i.e. phoning people, sms, addressbook etc. Mar 09 13:18:07 anyway, try SHR out.. it's good Mar 09 13:18:18 exactly. Mar 09 13:18:20 I did - the image didn't boot so I flashed FSO and played with that instead Mar 09 13:18:27 but I may try again Mar 09 13:18:30 oh Mar 09 13:18:35 SHR unstable branch? Mar 09 13:18:40 try 'testing' Mar 09 13:18:43 it should work Mar 09 13:20:19 no this is a while back Mar 09 13:20:27 a couple of months at least Mar 09 13:20:30 oh Mar 09 13:20:43 I'll try next time I have some time to play Mar 09 13:20:45 then you should test it Mar 09 13:20:48 yeah Mar 09 13:21:12 but currently I've faced the fact that I will never have the phone I wanted out of the moko - so it may take while Mar 09 13:21:33 hehe Mar 09 13:22:05 maybe GTA03 could be the first phone "working" from factory? Mar 09 13:22:25 with a stable base, and then you can install a lot of apps upon Mar 09 13:22:31 I hope so :D Mar 09 13:22:41 mwester! :D Mar 09 13:22:48 Yes - I guess they GTA02 will be the "learning edition", i.e. for openmoko to learn what to do and not do and get the software up to scratch, and gta03 will be the real one Mar 09 13:23:19 yeah, the first Neo1973 was some "alpha" concept, tryout Mar 09 13:23:39 then the neo freerunner went public, and a lot of developers got involved Mar 09 13:23:58 * SpeedEvil notes 02 was supposed to be the real one. Mar 09 13:24:15 well, people always rush things SpeedEvil Mar 09 13:25:01 as for me, I'm trying to develop a simple webapp, and I think "today I'm going to get this and that done".. but no Mar 09 13:25:31 at the end of the day I'm happy if I got halway Mar 09 13:25:33 If you want "the real one" i guess you better wait for the GTA06? Mar 09 13:25:34 halfway* Mar 09 13:25:39 haha Mar 09 13:25:39 yeah Mar 09 13:25:42 probably laen Mar 09 13:25:56 or, well, let's say GTA04 Mar 09 13:26:00 * laen had his gf pissed off at the freerunner recently :( Mar 09 13:26:04 HAHA Mar 09 13:26:44 you allow her to use it? oh my.. she's into linux? Mar 09 13:26:52 Fougner: the GTA04 is going to be released sort-of at the same time as the 03, release in parralel. Mar 09 13:26:59 laen, why? :O Mar 09 13:27:12 so that's development? =P Mar 09 13:27:16 There are concrete plans for the 04? Mar 09 13:27:19 So, they don't learn from eachother, you gotta wait for 1 release to fix it, and one to finish it off.. which is why i think the GTA06 is closed :p Mar 09 13:27:32 closer Mar 09 13:27:56 Uh, there was a talk on FOSDEM2009 from a Debian-Openmoko guy, he explained OM's plans. Mar 09 13:28:03 eh Mar 09 13:28:07 I don't get it Mar 09 13:28:16 Go get it then. Mar 09 13:28:24 ah, hear this Mar 09 13:28:32 they first release GTA03 public, to get feedback Mar 09 13:28:52 and then "if" there are bugs in hardware, they improve it and then release the GTA04? Mar 09 13:28:57 did I get it? :P Mar 09 13:28:58 Nope. Mar 09 13:29:02 aaw.. Mar 09 13:29:03 I'm stupid Mar 09 13:29:08 =( Mar 09 13:29:10 'a talk' Mar 09 13:29:12 * SpeedEvil sighs. Mar 09 13:29:13 apt shoot Fougner Mar 09 13:29:14 * apt shoots Fougner in the eye with a frozen turkey cannon! Mar 09 13:29:17 They are creating the 03 and 04 in parrallell (remove any r's and l's how you wish). Mar 09 13:29:21 talks are not sensible ways to reveal important stuff. Mar 09 13:29:33 at least - not only talks Mar 09 13:29:44 So the 04 is getting a better 3D chip and 3g etc, more of a media phone.. the 03 will be cheaper and sort of a follow up. Mar 09 13:29:53 SpeedEvil, how'd you like it then? in a mail? :P Mar 09 13:29:53 (though admittedly I haven't been reading the mailing lists) Mar 09 13:29:57 And cause the 04 will be harder to complete, it's beeing released a bit later. Mar 09 13:30:23 oh, 03 follow up for the FR? Mar 09 13:30:27 laen: talks to those couple of people involved actively in the project that happen to turn up is not a sensible way to reveal info to those in the community. Mar 09 13:30:44 SpeedEvil: agreed. Mar 09 13:30:49 laen: mailing list, and updating the wiki Mar 09 13:31:14 gah Mar 09 13:31:17 But it's the only thing we get to hear.. cause OM isn't quite open about their plans or strategy at all.. we're all humping a Microsoft strategy here. Mar 09 13:31:42 SpeedEvil and laen, do anyone of you know about DCVS? Mar 09 13:32:11 Nope. Mar 09 13:32:19 =( Mar 09 13:32:27 laen: yeah Mar 09 13:32:29 I really want to get this working Mar 09 13:33:15 What? Mar 09 13:33:21 WHAT? :D Mar 09 13:33:24 DCVS! Mar 09 13:33:30 aah, beautiful weather today, isn't it? Mar 09 13:33:30 anyone can check this package ? http://www.opkg.org/package_157.html Mar 09 13:33:33 Oh. Mar 09 13:33:35 Laen! Mar 09 13:33:39 DAVE! Mar 09 13:33:45 kasjo: checked. Mar 09 13:33:59 kasjo, I've tried it before today :) Mar 09 13:34:26 The GTA03 and GTA04 pages haven't been updated since december. Mar 09 13:34:27 kasjo, not so much, but it installed and I think it runs ok Mar 09 13:34:30 forex Mar 09 13:34:41 Sharwin_F: ok thx Mar 09 13:35:05 DAVE! Mar 09 13:35:18 * Fougner is booting OM2008.12 Mar 09 13:35:19 So 03 will still have the same useless glamo chip? ... Mar 09 13:35:25 I hope nto! Mar 09 13:35:26 not* Mar 09 13:35:36 I'd like it to have a nVidia GF 6800GT! Mar 09 13:36:51 Fougner, might be you also want x86 cpu?) Mar 09 13:36:58 in this case buy laptop) Mar 09 13:37:06 noooo Mar 09 13:37:08 x64 :D Mar 09 13:37:15 and have fun with vista and games) Mar 09 13:37:24 nah Mar 09 13:37:27 not vista Mar 09 13:37:36 gromgull: Nope. Mar 09 13:37:46 No glamo in any future device. Mar 09 13:37:55 good ! Mar 09 13:38:06 Sort-of 3D in the GTA03, better 3D in the GTA04. Mar 09 13:38:15 oh nice Mar 09 13:38:22 same wifi and bluetooth? Mar 09 13:38:29 what about camera? Mar 09 13:38:34 I think I saw some app in the repos Mar 09 13:39:08 Don't remember anymore about the wifi and bluetooth.. iirc there was some convo between OM and the atheros chip/driver creators.. Mar 09 13:39:31 oh Mar 09 13:39:34 And i believe i've seen something about 1 chip that integrates bluetooth _and_ wifi at the same time or something. Mar 09 13:39:35 as usual Mar 09 13:39:40 do ou know if it would be possible to connect some gadged (ie usb disk) and charge the openmoko at the same time, using a usb hub? Mar 09 13:39:41 oh, nice Mar 09 13:40:12 if not, would be nice to have 2 usb's on the gta03 xD Mar 09 13:40:15 hmm, would be cool to connect a HDD to the moko Mar 09 13:40:25 a 2.5" Mar 09 13:40:28 Fougner, you could do it now Mar 09 13:40:35 really? Mar 09 13:40:37 Would be cool to have a normal keyboard on the OM :P Mar 09 13:40:38 really Mar 09 13:40:42 wow Mar 09 13:40:43 gta02 has usb host mode Mar 09 13:40:47 yeah I know Mar 09 13:40:52 Yeah and that will leech your batts! :p Mar 09 13:40:59 but I thought it was limited in the current Mar 09 13:41:01 max_posedon, yeah, but you can't charge at the same time, can you? Mar 09 13:41:08 Sharwin_F: nope. Mar 09 13:41:15 so that's the point xD Mar 09 13:41:36 . Mar 09 13:41:45 for example, I suppouse you can attach a usb cam.. but it would empty the battery fast I suppouse Mar 09 13:42:09 hehe Mar 09 13:42:12 Well the cam needs to be powered.. if, like normal cams, it gets it's power from the USB.. well :) Mar 09 13:42:34 laen, most cameras take power from usb Mar 09 13:42:42 Yup :) Mar 09 13:42:57 Sharwin_F: with special cable you can charge and act as usb host at the same time Mar 09 13:43:00 We should make a community-based model. Mar 09 13:43:16 While they're working on the GTA03, let's start on the GTA08 :P Mar 09 13:43:24 Ah lindi-, my resource for cool and interesting OM stuff :) Mar 09 13:43:28 lindi-, how much special? a usb hub dooesn't goes ok? Mar 09 13:43:40 lindi-: wtb howto :) Mar 09 13:43:48 Sharwin_F: usb hub does not do Mar 09 13:44:06 laen: wiki has had instructions for this for months ;) Mar 09 13:44:14 lindi-, can I buy this cable easily? xD Mar 09 13:44:25 Ow dear, sorry lindi- :) Mar 09 13:44:26 Sharwin_F: i don't think any are commercially sold Mar 09 13:45:10 lindi-, does it have any specific name to look for it? Mar 09 13:45:20 dah! what's the first thing I should do when I've got a fresh install of OM2008.12 ? :D Mar 09 13:45:33 install a terminal? Mar 09 13:45:36 Sharwin_F: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Specialized_USB_cables Mar 09 13:45:44 ok thanks :D Mar 09 13:46:54 heh! Mar 09 13:50:12 are you looking for these USB cables? http://www.pcp.ch/PCP-CH-USB-Y-Kabel-1m-Typ-2xA-MiniB-1a14026019.htm Mar 09 13:50:15 about 5 EUR Mar 09 13:50:47 Sweet :) Mar 09 13:51:52 Sharwin_F: hmm Mar 09 13:52:37 hehe thanks :) Mar 09 13:52:51 I'll bookmark it to look at it in a while Mar 09 13:53:02 spaetz: have you tested that it works? Mar 09 13:53:47 I haven't used it yet, no Mar 09 13:53:59 lindi-: the description for that cable in stores here says "to give more power to the usb device" .. Mar 09 13:54:01 but I don't see why it shouldn't work Mar 09 13:54:31 spaetz: does it include the pull-up resistors? Mar 09 13:54:43 phones are broken... laptops are broken... everything's broken... Mar 09 13:54:45 -_- Mar 09 13:55:06 lindi-: actually, I don't think there are any resistors included. A bare Y-cable, I think Mar 09 13:55:19 spaetz: then you need to add the resistors yourself Mar 09 13:56:18 mmh, probably Mar 09 13:56:55 I don't really need it, so I'll leave that for some rainy day far in the future Mar 09 14:02:01 spaetz: lindi-, laen: I recommend modifying a USB-hub. most convenient and easy Mar 09 14:02:55 Doctor doctor Mar 09 14:03:47 I got one here, pretty much standard low-budget. Needs two 15k and shorting a schottky, and you have a perfect "Y-cable" with power-plug (powersupply comes with hub!) Mar 09 14:06:52 http://people.openmoko.org/joerg/Y-Cable/USB-HUB.txt Mar 09 14:09:33 Dave: situation normal then :) Mar 09 14:09:46 :P Mar 09 14:10:00 I should photograph mine Mar 09 14:10:04 though I cheated Mar 09 14:10:50 photo your what? Mar 09 14:11:05 * tig| is concerned Mar 09 14:11:24 haha Mar 09 14:11:28 * Dave slaps tig Mar 09 14:12:16 * DocScrutinizer throws 50KG of candy to the channel and waves Mar 09 14:12:53 I was told not to take candy from strangers..... Mar 09 14:13:25 :D Mar 09 14:13:33 and they don't get much stranger :P Mar 09 14:13:42 YES Mar 09 14:14:26 DocScrutinizer: is adding the resistor requirement? i think I saw that the hardware could enable/disable the resistor independently of usb mode? Mar 09 14:14:57 It'd be better they tought you not to buy smartfones from strangers ;-) Mar 09 14:15:05 hahahahaa Mar 09 14:15:07 :D Mar 09 14:16:47 lindi-: nope, the problem is the R-swapping is done in sync with enabling "charging"/USB-power host mode Mar 09 14:17:13 lindi-: so if you need to take power from usb you want to fit the right Rs Mar 09 14:17:48 Speaking of whih Mar 09 14:17:59 I have to go resolder a laptop power connector now -_- Mar 09 14:18:02 bah Mar 09 14:18:04 lindi-: and as taking power from USB while driving logical protocol hostmode is all that about with Y-cable... ;-) Mar 09 14:19:14 lindi-: nevertheless many hubs might get away without the Rs. You just need to test Mar 09 14:20:26 yeah, mine worked fine without, but you should try it and see :) Mar 09 14:20:56 lindi-: just switch FR to "chargemode" + "logical host", connect a hub with external power supply and see whether it gets enumerated Mar 09 14:21:29 DocScrutinizer: is it really? Mar 09 14:21:31 Dave: wait, what? Mar 09 14:21:32 let me read the spec Mar 09 14:21:37 holy arcing power connectors batman! Mar 09 14:21:48 lindi-: please rephrase Mar 09 14:21:52 <|Leto|> can i use fso-gpsd to serve data like fso-gpsd? Mar 09 14:22:00 Dave: You're saying it is possible with a powered usb hub without a special cable to be in hostmode and have a keyboard on a hub working with the freerunner charging? Mar 09 14:22:09 <|Leto|> ok that made sense. Mar 09 14:22:17 lol |Leto| Mar 09 14:22:25 laen: not with an unmodified hub Mar 09 14:22:30 Okay. Mar 09 14:22:45 <|Leto|> can i use fso-gpsd to serve data on a specific port? so i could run tangogps on my laptop and get gps-data served? Mar 09 14:23:33 laen: you still need to feed the 5V to uplink of hub. Otherwise where should FR charge from? Mar 09 14:24:14 Powered USB hub. Hence, power. Mar 09 14:24:19 on my hub (http://people.openmoko.org/joerg/Y-Cable/USB-HUB.jpg) you need to short D1 to do this Mar 09 14:25:00 laen: usually a "powered hub" takes power for own chip and feeding DOWNstream ports, NOT UPstream Mar 09 14:25:07 Aha! Mar 09 14:25:12 Interesting ":) Mar 09 14:25:19 YES Mar 09 14:25:22 I like the light though. Mar 09 14:25:24 Mine has a special switch on it Mar 09 14:25:34 DocScrutinizer: where's D1 on your image? Mar 09 14:25:36 Dave, make one, send me yours. :P Mar 09 14:25:39 "short D1" switch? Mar 09 14:26:14 sorry, erratum: D5 Mar 09 14:26:33 ok, just discovered your text Mar 09 14:26:34 ok Mar 09 14:26:56 D1 as far as i can see is a chop, D2 and 3 unused.. Mar 09 14:27:04 would be useful to charge the FR while having a keyboard attached Mar 09 14:27:17 you even see the traces leading from upstream port to D5 & F1 fuse Mar 09 14:27:24 haha Mar 09 14:27:26 although hanging it off my eeePC lets me do the same :) Mar 09 14:27:27 I'd still need a small keyboard. Mar 09 14:27:34 and another trace from power-jack to other side of D5 Mar 09 14:27:55 I have doubts that extra-power store usb y-cable is gonna work Mar 09 14:27:58 . Mar 09 14:29:17 wtf is "extra-power store usb y-cable" ? Mar 09 14:29:37 http://www.popelectronics.nl/usb-y-kabel-hama-pr-1892.html Mar 09 14:30:30 laen: ""D1 as far as i can see is a chop"" what U r talking bout? Mar 09 14:31:39 DocScrutinizer: well, of course now i can't find it from the specs :) Mar 09 14:31:50 laen: This type of Y-cable will fit for feeding power to FR and downstream. No way to attach 15k-Rs though Mar 09 14:32:20 lindi-: huh? Mar 09 14:33:39 laen: you need a USB-charger with usb-A receptacle though to feed the power Mar 09 14:34:42 hub solution is way more easy Mar 09 14:35:03 to build Mar 09 14:36:03 * Dave tries to mount his external cdrom on his freerunner Mar 09 14:36:27 laen: of course you mustn't confuse the two usb-A plugs. one is for power only Mar 09 14:36:57 Dave: should work. just need right storage kernel module :) Mar 09 14:37:36 Dave: and maybe you should plug in the power supply that comes with your drive Mar 09 14:38:33 all u need is an altoids can:) Mar 09 14:38:56 Thargoids attack Mar 09 14:42:02 Joerg, I'm using my hub to power it! :D Mar 09 14:42:07 it seems to work... Mar 09 14:42:34 yup, cheap powered hub should probably work Mar 09 14:42:49 Hey, at least it works :P Mar 09 14:43:26 Dave: now if you short your "D5" then FR could charge same time Mar 09 14:44:06 YES Mar 09 14:44:08 givven it's not stopping operation of hub with 2pcs 15k missing as soon as you switch to chargemode Mar 09 14:44:31 I should modify this hub then :] Mar 09 14:44:40 yup Mar 09 14:45:44 maybe I'll add some cool little led too :P Mar 09 14:45:47 it's more likely btw for a hub to operate n normal mode despite 2 times 2pcs 15k are at he line (one in hub, one in FR), than it is it might work without any 15k at all Mar 09 14:45:53 or maybe that'll just look stupid Mar 09 14:46:48 k folks. another lorryload of candy Mar 09 14:46:50 cya Mar 09 15:05:34 ls Mar 09 15:05:36 :D Mar 09 15:05:39 cat apt Mar 09 15:05:49 apt get Fougner some coffee Mar 09 15:05:51 * apt fetches Fougner some coffee Mar 09 15:05:58 apt: thank you Mar 09 15:05:59 de nada, Fougner Mar 09 16:05:09 ahoi Mar 09 16:16:05 sigh, so much for that Contacts application from pimlico, I open it this morning and all my contacts are...gone. Mar 09 16:17:10 johnsu01: is that on poky? Mar 09 16:17:23 tig|: I don't know what poky is Mar 09 16:17:46 http://pokylinux.org/ Mar 09 16:17:57 but I am guessing that is a no then :) Mar 09 16:18:03 tig|: on Debian Mar 09 16:29:28 OE guys, can you add pkg-config as RDEPENDS to your vala.bb ? It complains about missing pkg-config and it's not listed as dependency Mar 09 16:29:48 valac.bb Mar 09 17:04:12 <|Leto|> i'm looking for a recent fennec.bb Mar 09 17:04:18 <|Leto|> anyone got an idea where to get one? Mar 09 17:04:25 <|Leto|> or will i have to hack up my own? Mar 09 17:05:19 Check on OE git. Mar 09 17:07:58 <|Leto|> nice Mar 09 17:07:59 <|Leto|> thanks Mar 09 17:08:05 <|Leto|> didn't find it before Mar 09 17:46:52 Hi, can anyone help me connecting to wireless, I've been reading on the wiki and I think the "wifi tool" is broken :/ Mar 09 17:47:11 a wireless AP* Mar 09 17:47:16 you can do it from command line Mar 09 17:47:55 Yeh ino, but it gives me an error Mar 09 17:48:21 5sec im just going to reboot and try again Mar 09 17:49:35 aaaaargh, what is this? Mar 09 17:50:19 i am running SHR testing, and "opkg upgrade" complained "Package openssh-sshd (parent openssh-sshd) is not available from any configured src.", same for openssh. Mar 09 17:50:45 while trying to upgrade from 4.6p1-r6 to 4.6p1-r6.1 Mar 09 17:53:07 I thinked dropbear is main sshd Mar 09 17:53:19 Is this the right way to connect to a wifi without encryption: First I made a scan with (iwlist eth0 scan) and then to connect i use udhcpc essid ? Mar 09 17:54:11 iwconfig eth0 essid Mar 09 17:54:18 ifconfig eth0 up Mar 09 17:54:22 dhclient eth0 Mar 09 17:54:25 smth like this Mar 09 17:55:01 Ah Mar 09 17:55:22 Thats properly why it didnt work Mar 09 17:56:11 max_posedon: i know, but i removed dropbear. Mar 09 17:56:31 i downloaded the two IPKs now Mar 09 17:57:08 http://pastebin.com/m77c50982 Mar 09 17:57:46 http://pastebin.com/m5099a897 even better Mar 09 17:58:11 i do not know where opkg hallucinates the .1 from Mar 09 18:01:01 sheesh. Mar 09 18:01:36 Ah i cant even find the darn Wifi tool Mar 09 18:01:40 after removing the stanzas from /usr/lib/opkg/status manually, it works. those packages were listed as "installed" there, even though i "opkg remove"d them. Mar 09 18:11:30 evening all! trying to install Debian alongside FDOM but keep getting mount errors at end of the install script. Anyone else had this? Mar 09 18:14:24 Ah i just cant get this damned wifi to work :/ Mar 09 18:15:20 Denhart: what's your problem exactly? Mar 09 18:16:21 Its mostly the fact that i dont know 1. Where to start "The wifi tool" and second I dont know how to do it from the commandline Mar 09 18:16:42 I've been reading the wiki like a mad Mar 09 18:17:04 I'm no good at wifi :) Mar 09 18:17:09 I had trouble too ^^ Mar 09 18:17:19 Denhart: if you're trying to connect without encryption or with WEP, use iwconfig as usual. If you're trying to connect to WPA, use wpa_supplicant as usual. Mar 09 18:17:42 Its without encryption Mar 09 18:17:49 Denhart: nothing special about it, like any other WiFi card. Mar 09 18:19:12 Denhart: if you still have troubles, you might try wmiconfig "maxperf" setting, it sometimes improves stability. Unfortunately, the chip in FR is not currently compatible with all access points out there, so YMMV. Mar 09 18:19:29 Ah Mar 09 18:19:43 Well i'll try Mar 09 18:21:03 YMMV? Mar 09 18:21:29 Fougner: google define:YMMV Mar 09 18:21:51 PaulFert->define("YMMV"); Mar 09 18:22:03 ~YMMV Mar 09 18:22:04 hmm... ymmv is Your Mileage May Vary Mar 09 18:22:26 Fougner: dbus request timeout Mar 09 18:22:34 HAHA Mar 09 18:22:45 PaulFert->exit(0); Mar 09 18:23:04 Fougner: method with signature "i" not found Mar 09 18:24:48 ~google define:apt Mar 09 18:25:55 install.sh script for debian keeps dying at the "creating journal" part.

Mar 09 18:47:26 Denhart: without setting ip it's normal :) Mar 09 18:47:28 Ah i'm an idiot Mar 09 18:47:41 Thank you once again :> Mar 09 18:49:06 ah now its working Mar 09 18:50:31 Ah finally i can ssh into it Mar 09 18:51:16 Denhart: you're welcome :) Mar 09 18:51:28 openmoko: 03werner * r4954 10/developers/werner/gta03/cam/patches/ (10 files): Mar 09 18:51:28 openmoko: Cleanup and clock fixes.

Mar 09 19:52:29 anyone else tried to use mokogeocaching? :\ Mar 09 19:52:42 And i already uninstalled multitap-pad Mar 09 19:56:55 I'm getting crazy with Pear. What does this error mean: Could not rename /usr/bin/.tmppear to /usr/bin/pear copy(/usr/bin/pear): failed to open stream: No such file or directory Mar 09 19:56:55 ERROR: commit failed Mar 09 19:57:08 damn PHP :> Mar 09 20:10:05 Ah someone tell me how to update libfreetype6 (>= 2.3.6) Mar 09 20:12:13 Ah nvm I think i got it Mar 09 20:12:16 :p Mar 09 21:22:06 With illume on debian (built from svn), finger scrolling of the launcher icons is very, very unresponsive Mar 09 21:22:18 I have to try 4-5 times to get it to scroll Mar 09 21:22:59 that's with drag sensitivity set to highest Mar 09 21:34:34 <|Marco|> johnsu01: wah, that's ba :/ Mar 09 21:34:56 it also appears to only work if I drag in the space next to the icons rather than over them Mar 09 21:37:44 <|Marco|> oooookay ? Mar 09 22:13:19 hey all Mar 09 22:13:40 a quick question, i've had a brief search, but is it possible to make ones own predictive text dictionaries with openmoko ? Mar 09 22:14:49 spectie: define "openmoko" Mar 09 22:15:06 the openmoko platform for mobile phones ? Mar 09 22:15:16 spectie: there is no thing like that Mar 09 22:15:18 do i have the wrong channel ? Mar 09 22:15:50 spectie: no Mar 09 22:15:58 spectie: you have the wrong expectations ;) Mar 09 22:16:01 oh Mar 09 22:16:29 basically, i'm interested in making predictive text input for languages which the large proprietary companies can't/won't support Mar 09 22:16:33 spectie: the most fancy keyboard that is used usually on Freerunner is http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Illume_keyboard Mar 09 22:17:41 i'm using quite an ancient phone Mar 09 22:18:09 so i don't really know how these things work... but it occurred to me, that since i have the data it might be nice to make it available for people with more up-to-date phones Mar 09 22:18:16 Which image/OS/firmware do you guys use? Mar 09 22:18:38 i can imagine the frustration at trying to type welsh with english predictive text! Mar 09 22:19:14 and the principle behind predictive text should be fairly easy... something like a weighted finite-state acceptor Mar 09 22:20:09 spectie: that's very nice of you, but for various reasons openmoko community is not uniform. I still think that the best you can do is to improve Raster's Illume keyboard. Mar 09 22:20:34 well, taking a look at it, all it needs is a wordlist Mar 09 22:20:57 spectie: and if you have frequency data, it will use that too. Mar 09 22:21:08 i can supply that Mar 09 22:21:19 you mean of words or bi/trigrams et.c ? Mar 09 22:21:28 spectie: of words Mar 09 22:21:33 o Mar 09 22:21:33 ok Mar 09 22:22:14 spectie: it'd be nice of you to write a letter to the community mailing list with description of what data you have and under which license it's available. community@lists.openmoko.org Mar 09 22:22:21 ok Mar 09 22:22:21 hey all Mar 09 22:22:23 PaulFert`, GPL Mar 09 22:22:31 but i'm willing to relicence Mar 09 22:22:37 to BSD/MIT Mar 09 22:22:43 or LGPL :) Mar 09 22:23:25 may i mention your nick in the email PaulFert` ? Mar 09 22:25:04 spectie: you may, but i see no need to. Thanks for your effort! I hope the guys who need these dictinaries will be happy :) Mar 09 22:25:34 when is fso 6.1 supposed to be released? Mar 09 22:28:17 nm, found the timeline Mar 09 22:34:25 Question about the openmoko,is there MMS support in the software at this time? If not what happens when someone sends a MMS to you? Mar 09 22:35:36 PaulFert`, sent Mar 09 22:35:38 and thanks again for your time Mar 09 22:35:46 i'll idle here Mar 09 22:36:00 spectie: :) Mar 09 22:37:35 SeligArkin, basically you get an SMS saying you were sent an MMS and an url where the actual MMS is (that may or may not be reachable by some sane means) Mar 09 22:37:50 I see Mar 09 22:38:28 (that's the way MMS works, the supporting phones just will get the URL via a data connection automatically) Mar 09 22:38:37 ah ok Mar 09 22:39:03 and the data connection, AFAIK, may be a special one, though it may also (I'm not sure) be an internet-accessible URL. I don't really know more spesifics Mar 09 22:39:12 ah Mar 09 22:39:47 has anyone tried connecting an infrared adapter? Mar 09 22:41:25 SeligArkin, in any case, supporting MMS is a software issue. It can be done, you need to get the proper type of GPRS connection up (as said, _perhaps_ a special one, not the "internet" gprs that you usually use) and retrieve the url Mar 09 22:42:42 hmm Mar 09 22:42:48 something I will mess with Mar 09 22:44:02 spectie: btw, if you sent the message without subscribing first, it will be hold for pre-moderation for unknown time with unknown outcome. Mar 09 22:44:11 PaulFert`, ah Mar 09 22:44:12 i did Mar 09 22:44:23 is it not frequently moderated ? Mar 09 22:44:46 ok Mar 09 22:44:47 'sec Mar 09 22:45:10 spectie: also, if you'll take part in discussion, don't be surprised that community mailing list is fucking misconfigured to add a wrong Reply-To header to every message (that should be ignored before replying). Mar 09 22:45:32 :/ Mar 09 22:45:48 * spectie registered Mar 09 22:46:30 i wonder how illume stores the wordlist Mar 09 22:46:59 spectie: they claim it's to make the mailing list more for the people who can't learn to cycle^W use their MUA. Mar 09 22:47:10 lol Mar 09 22:47:29 wow, the archives get generated quickly Mar 09 23:01:33 spectie: afair the illume can use a simple sorted list of words. A lot of discussions of new dictionary format took place recently, you might be interested to search the archive. Also try to ping raster when you see him here to know the current state and implementation plans, he's very helpful usually. Mar 09 23:01:44 ok Mar 09 23:01:56 PaulFert`, the thing is i wonder how well it works for complex languages Mar 09 23:01:58 like finnish Mar 09 23:02:48 or even basque... the expanded form of the dictionary we have is >200mb Mar 09 23:03:02 spectie: you're looking at the root of the problem, it doesn't work well enough even for some european languages, but that's something that is known and planned to be solved someday :) Mar 09 23:03:05 i would like to talk to him indeed Mar 09 23:03:46 i have an idea how it might be solved, but i'm not sure how feasible it would be Mar 09 23:04:00 what is his nick around here? Mar 09 23:04:47 spectie: the problem is that we need some way to input text fast. And he's trying to avoid "patented" methods like t9. And given the small screen his idea of fuzzy-matching becomes very attractive, but that complicates things a lot, as it needs to be done very fast. Mar 09 23:05:08 someone in my dept. wrote a paper on a method Mar 09 23:05:54 http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:CZpBbUakL6QJ:www.dlsi.ua.es/~mlf/docum/forcada01j.pdf+catalan+predictive+text&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=es Mar 09 23:06:24 spectie: Raster's nick is raster. :) He's in AU now, i guess. Probably you can send him a privmsg here on freenode in case he forgot to join the right channels (#openmoko and #openmoko-cdevel) :) Mar 09 23:06:31 ah Mar 09 23:06:39 ok Mar 09 23:06:41 thanks :) Mar 09 23:06:56 australia is +7 or +8 no? Mar 09 23:07:32 only real wackos get woken by being privmsgd :) Mar 09 23:07:59 can you licence t9? Mar 09 23:08:53 shellevil: that wouldn't meet at least DFSG Mar 09 23:08:57 spectie: You're welcome :) I don't remember where exactly he is, so no exact TZ is known. Mar 09 23:09:04 ah Mar 09 23:09:13 shellevil, would you want to ? Mar 09 23:09:33 DFSG? Mar 09 23:09:34 <|Marco|> woah, what happened with opkg.org ? Mar 09 23:09:44 shellevil: debian free software guidelines Mar 09 23:09:48 lin Mar 09 23:09:57 shellevil: www.debian.org/social_contract Mar 09 23:09:59 lindi-: I don't much care. Mar 09 23:10:09 lindi-: I want the option of having non-free stuff. Mar 09 23:10:26 And I suspect 99.99% of debian systems have mp3 Mar 09 23:10:36 shellevil: debian ships mp3 decoding software at the moment Mar 09 23:10:46 shellevil: but not encoding Mar 09 23:10:51 i'm sure mikel would be happy to give his code away Mar 09 23:11:04 anyway Mar 09 23:11:09 i'm off to bed now Mar 09 23:11:10 bona nit! Mar 09 23:11:35 shellevil: but I care, i don't want openmoko to spend its money on licensing non-free stuff for those who want to use non-free stuff :) Mar 09 23:11:37 lindi-: btw, i don't care about software patents which are illegal. So no need to license T9, just implement it under the DFSG-compatible license and it'll be ok. Mar 09 23:12:04 And all software patents are illegal imo :) Mar 09 23:12:09 PaulFert`: patent could be invalid but i doubt it can be illegal? Mar 09 23:13:10 yeah well, certainly nobody's forcing any developer to avoid software patents. I doubt OM will ship a T9 pad on their phones but that's no reason for somebody to code one up and make it available. Mar 09 23:13:13 lindi-: hm, you're right. Technically in some jurisdictions they're legal. Mar 09 23:13:35 lindi-: in others they're unenforceable. Mar 09 23:14:15 lindi-: and in those where they're technically legal, i see it as an abuse of patent system, that's why i used the word "illegal". Mar 09 23:17:50 Ok, sleep time for me too, see you :) Mar 10 00:38:16 could somebody help me find out why I can't ping my fr when it boots into debian? /etc/network/interfaces: http://pastebin.com/m6147dfc8 Mar 10 00:39:15 the address it attained under shr is 10.0.0.2, not sure why it would be any different under debian Mar 10 00:39:43 pointless gadgets are fun Mar 10 00:41:38 also, I can't seem to find a working app to switch to usb host mode Mar 10 00:41:46 under shr Mar 10 00:42:06 or do it successfully using the terminal Mar 10 00:47:09 well, I'll have to try later Mar 10 00:47:12 zzzz Mar 10 01:34:26 Is there any way I can avoid the problem with my GTA02 where I leave it plugged into a PC's usb port for a few days then return to find the thing dead as a brick, needing some kind of battery removal dance and an overnight sit on USB before it'll boot? Mar 10 01:35:19 I keep finding that every time I get a chance to work on it the thing is dead and I'm not free by the time its charged, especially now that I'm using two of 'em and both need to be working for me… Mar 10 01:41:23 Hm. Well, apparently I can boot it into uboot using a good battery holding down aux then remove the battery (which normally kills it) and then switch to the dead battery, which I'm guessing it will now charge. Mar 10 01:48:00 anyone use the Satan program? Mar 10 02:37:24 im having trouble with shr Mar 10 02:37:29 i cannot place a phone call Mar 10 02:37:37 and when someone calls me, i answer, but i cant hear anyone talk and they can't hear me Mar 10 02:43:52 hmm Mar 10 02:44:06 sounds like state problems again Mar 10 02:46:10 on the "default" profile, no ringing occurs Mar 10 02:46:12 only vibrating Mar 10 02:46:15 I'm using shr testing Mar 10 02:46:18 the latest Mar 10 02:46:22 and I've reflashed it more than once **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Mar 10 02:59:57 2009
