**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Jul 01 02:59:56 2007 Jul 01 03:01:35 So, anyone know how to customize the contacts area? Jul 01 03:06:49 mine's being weird, i guess its just memory Jul 01 03:06:55 like, menus flash white and close Jul 01 03:07:00 and i have to reboot Jul 01 03:08:02 there's something kinda nice about carrying your own http server around with you Jul 01 03:08:44 KaylaKaze: hehe Jul 01 03:11:52 Whoa, Hacker 2007 ROCKS! Jul 01 03:12:05 It's faster, has a few more features, and (most importantly) is *much* prettier. Jul 01 03:12:46 (And it's so cuuute, it thinks it's an N800!) Jul 01 03:19:48 man this is shitting me ;\ Jul 01 03:20:06 can you elaborate on the install process, nunim? Jul 01 03:20:37 I downloaded all the files inclucding the libries needed and put them in the same directory Jul 01 03:21:20 double clicked on minimo and it asked if I wanted to install. then it erroed saying I was missing the libraries even though they are in the same directory Jul 01 03:21:48 where does the 770 keeps its logs? Jul 01 03:22:59 stupid user manual on maemo page gets a 404 error Jul 01 03:24:18 Wzrd2, just use the repositories it's much easier. Jul 01 03:26:35 please explain how to do that i'm not familar with linux Jul 01 03:27:01 http://dragon-gaming.com/blog/?p=5 Jul 01 03:27:10 Hacker OS rocks! Jul 01 03:27:18 sorry to be stupid. With a pc i'm an expert but I just got my 770 today and am not familiar with linux Jul 01 03:27:39 but instead of the ones listed use Jul 01 03:27:40 web address: http://www.maemo.org.br/minimo/ Jul 01 03:27:40 Distribution: bora Jul 01 03:27:40 Components: user Jul 01 03:27:41 & Jul 01 03:27:50 Web address - http://repository.maemo.org Jul 01 03:27:50 Distribution - herring Jul 01 03:27:50 Components - main Jul 01 03:31:08 and then install minimo? Jul 01 03:31:16 from the list? Jul 01 03:32:14 Yeah Jul 01 03:32:25 Go Install New > All > Scroll Down to minimo and install. Jul 01 03:33:50 thanks.. so from reading his faqs, anything on the app catalog from maemo you add the repository from whatever the app says then install? Jul 01 03:34:13 that would be for installing any app or game on the 770?? Jul 01 03:34:32 Yeah. Jul 01 03:34:34 Pretty much. Jul 01 03:34:40 that's pretty easy then Jul 01 03:35:54 do you always have to gain root access for every install? Jul 01 03:36:13 Nope. Jul 01 03:36:16 You rarely need root. Jul 01 03:36:24 I was just giving you an example how to install a repository. Jul 01 03:36:37 ok so I cAN SKIP THAT STEP Jul 01 03:36:43 oops...stupid caps lock Jul 01 03:37:04 yeah Jul 01 03:37:08 just install the repositorys Jul 01 03:37:12 and go to add application Jul 01 03:37:13 all Jul 01 03:37:16 scroll to minimo Jul 01 03:37:17 double click Jul 01 03:37:22 it'll say somet hings Jul 01 03:37:24 click ok Jul 01 03:37:27 and it'll install Jul 01 03:37:31 Then it'll be in Extras > Minimo Jul 01 03:41:37 cool it worked! thanks.. now we need a later version of flash which works on the 770 Jul 01 03:42:00 yay! DND sheet all working! Jul 01 03:42:50 now to try and install doom :) Jul 01 03:45:50 Doom is easy :) Jul 01 03:46:02 how does it run Jul 01 03:46:06 is it smooth? Jul 01 03:47:26 Smooth enough. Jul 01 03:49:35 so it's a little jerky but not bad? Jul 01 03:50:39 It's doom afterall.. Jul 01 03:56:06 <[spec]> is there a howto to get airodump working on the 770? Jul 01 04:01:06 man playing doom with the stylus sucks so much ass Jul 01 04:05:21 <[spec]> i thought it was kinda cool Jul 01 04:05:31 <[spec]> much better than playing doom on the iPod Jul 01 04:05:50 doom is kinda cool but there's no monsters Jul 01 04:06:43 <[spec]> i only played for about 35 seconds Jul 01 04:06:56 <[spec]> can you load your own wad files? Jul 01 04:07:05 yes Jul 01 04:07:17 <[spec]> cool Jul 01 04:09:40 is the os 2007 hacker edition way better? Jul 01 04:27:32 this is weird. Firefox isn't processing my havascript but it's not throwing any errors either... Jul 01 04:27:47 javascript* Jul 01 04:30:15 and tracked down (hopefully) to a missing ) Jul 01 04:31:43 Well howdy there, strangers! I got a question that perchance has been asked time and time again, but I want to ask it once more. Jul 01 04:32:42 What support/development can the maemo community itself do to have Flash 7,8, or 9 on the tablet build of Linux? I'm interested in forming a development team if it's just the problem of getting the source onto the system. Jul 01 04:35:10 Flash 9 is out of the question. Jul 01 04:35:30 For flash 8, you could try intergrating it with minimo Jul 01 04:36:18 What would the limitation of Flash 9 be? Since Adobe did build it for linux... Jul 01 04:36:27 Actually, Flash 8 doesn't exist for Linux, sorry Jul 01 04:36:32 They leaped from 7 to 9 Jul 01 04:38:57 I was lead to believe they didn't release the SDK for flash 9 yet Jul 01 04:39:07 Thats why linux opera doesn't have it. Jul 01 04:43:07 They released a flash 9 plugin some months ago for linux. Flash 8 never happened for linux. Jul 01 04:43:29 flash 7 is for opera though Jul 01 04:43:37 im pretty sure flash 9 on opera doesnt work for linux? Jul 01 04:44:06 http://my.opera.com/haavard/blog/2007/04/13/wii-browser-out-but-why-flash-7-and-not-8-or-9 Jul 01 04:47:06 UKTube has reduced my desire for Flash 9 a bit. Jul 01 04:47:09 I knew I read that somewhere. Jul 01 04:47:59 GeneralAntilles, why is that? Jul 01 04:48:24 what is the opera on maemo? opera mini? full opera compiled by opera? Jul 01 04:52:02 combination? Jul 01 04:52:35 Seems to be full opera ripped and gutted and totally modified Jul 01 04:53:25 So why doesn't maemo get together a team to use the Flash 7 SDK and make flash 7 worakble? At least at that rate, YouTube and GV will work Jul 01 04:53:49 with operas consent? nokia buy some dev rights or buy a custom opera from opera? Jul 01 04:54:47 reverendnathan, doesnt it already have flash 7? Jul 01 04:54:57 Flash 6 Jul 01 04:55:02 On OS2006 here, though Jul 01 05:04:44 oh right Jul 01 05:05:20 i bought the n800 because i thought the n770 would be nice as a little linux device, but it seemed too underpowered to do what it was supposed to do. webrowsing and multimedia Jul 01 05:10:40 I don't think 770 is underpowered. Jul 01 05:10:44 For heavy flash/ajax maybe. Jul 01 05:13:48 Certainly if I was directly in the market I would have gone with the N800, but as you guys heard, the N770 was $129 on woot so I grabbed it there Jul 01 05:14:10 Pretty damn satisfied, and youtube is really the only stake in the coffin, really Jul 01 05:14:33 reverendnathan, 225$ for the n800 Jul 01 05:15:41 Yeah $130, can't argue. Jul 01 05:15:49 I've spent more on junk. Jul 01 05:15:56 i.e. breadmaker. Jul 01 05:16:14 hey now Jul 01 05:16:23 breadmakers are so worth it Jul 01 05:16:28 No, I made bread one time. Jul 01 05:16:56 I make bread by hand, can't imagine a maker really saving too much time Jul 01 05:16:57 the point of a breadmaker is to allow you to make bread easily Jul 01 05:17:15 Eh, it's a pain to clean. Jul 01 05:17:21 Granted it makes some very good cinnamon buns. Jul 01 05:17:24 but I'm lazy... Jul 01 05:19:06 this d&D character sheet better be able to get me a job. It's pretty damn impressive IMO :-P Jul 01 05:19:17 roffle. Jul 01 05:19:30 it looks almost just like the paper one Jul 01 05:20:11 I still have to add user authentification though Jul 01 05:23:02 hi can someone please answer me a quick question about gaining root Jul 01 05:23:34 i type sudo gainroot after installing the required repositoires, but when i do an ls under the 'root' dir all i see are MyDocs and apps Jul 01 05:23:42 i'm trying to get into my memory card Jul 01 05:24:35 right now i see /home/user # (cursor) Jul 01 05:27:35 i'm trying to do "cd media" it says cannot cd to media Jul 01 05:30:28 cd /media/mmc1/ Jul 01 05:30:52 but when i type "ls" all i see are MyDocs and apps folder Jul 01 05:31:58 i type sudo gainroot, then it says "root shell enabled" Jul 01 05:32:00 comes up to Jul 01 05:32:10 ./home/user # (cursor) Jul 01 05:32:10 [01:29] cd /media/mmc1/ Jul 01 05:32:56 o Jul 01 05:32:58 weird Jul 01 05:33:00 thanks Jul 01 05:33:07 why is that so specific Jul 01 05:33:29 if you just type cd media Jul 01 05:33:34 it relative path Jul 01 05:33:37 so it would go to media Jul 01 05:33:43 typing cd /media/ Jul 01 05:33:48 means go to base then media Jul 01 05:35:08 Common linux goodyness. Jul 01 05:35:59 so specific? werid? thats not specific. thats like telling someone to "to get to my house you drive 20 miles west."....if you dont give them a starting location, they assume it to be wherever they are currently at... Jul 01 05:37:16 eh w/e as long as i get the end result Jul 01 05:37:41 * Dr_Nunim can't believe the number of people not using swap. Jul 01 05:52:33 <`0660> i'm one of them :) Jul 01 05:52:46 <`0660> haven't seen the need for it yet Jul 01 05:54:18 this thing says I have 15 MB of pictures... Jul 01 05:54:41 I'd like to know where 'cause I don't see 'em nor did I put them theer Jul 01 05:55:16 It coems with some. Jul 01 05:55:16 <`0660> sure you didn't :) Jul 01 05:55:23 <`0660> blame the software :) Jul 01 05:55:42 unless it's just counting any picture files, like from games Jul 01 06:00:50 I'd like Nethack much more if it had a better map generator Jul 01 06:01:35 I never played it, anygood? Jul 01 06:02:54 how could you never have played Nethack? Jul 01 06:04:50 nethack? Jul 01 06:05:19 http://www.nethack.org/ Jul 01 06:06:35 the version on the 770 is one of the better I've seen Jul 01 06:10:12 Why does this look like something I don't want to play. Jul 01 06:10:15 * Dr_Nunim holds out for master of magic. Jul 01 06:10:19 Man that would make a great port. Jul 01 06:10:29 ?omg.. Jul 01 06:10:31 omg Jul 01 06:10:37 Wtf. Jul 01 06:10:49 ? Jul 01 06:10:53 KaylaKaze, how fooking 1337 do you have to be to play nethack?! Jul 01 06:11:18 lol, I'd bet it looks more like the windows version Jul 01 06:11:24 not the asci lol Jul 01 06:12:39 im thinking.wow. this is like the uberness of 1337ness. D&D, text based, ascii based, ported to linux on an arm device, played via cli. Jul 01 06:12:48 I'd play it all the time if it's map generator didn't suck Jul 01 06:13:31 the 770 version is graphical Jul 01 06:17:56 <`0660> i wish i was leet Jul 01 06:18:01 wow Jul 01 06:18:08 <`0660> :) Jul 01 06:18:19 <`0660> do you feel the same? Jul 01 06:19:27 * Dr_Nunim plays a mud. Jul 01 11:56:52 good morning Jul 01 12:24:15 hello! some months ago i got my new n800 and defined a code for device lock. now i have locked the device by accident and because i forgot the code and the device didn't ask the code before locking i have a problem now. Jul 01 12:25:05 i can still ssh into the device and become root. but the code and the lock seems to be defined in flash. and the flasher doesnt support setting or disabling device lock. Jul 01 12:25:55 r3tro, afaik you need to take the device to service point if you've lost the code Jul 01 12:26:54 i found way to check a code via dbus, and try to brute-force hack my lock code, but now im at code 1.500.000 but no luck yet. i don't if my script works... Jul 01 12:27:14 this is the dbus command: dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.mce --print-reply /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.validate_devicelock_code string:'12345' Jul 01 12:28:02 if one of you could do me a favor: lock your device (you should know your code), ssh into it and sumit the command above with your code? so i could verify that my brute-force script has a chance? Jul 01 12:30:38 I don't think Canola likes my shared media... I think I have too much that it can't load the list... Jul 01 12:33:14 r3tro, dbus-names.h in mce-dev package says that it takes it encrypted Jul 01 12:35:53 inz: argh! do you have a link for me to that file? Jul 01 12:36:26 r3tro, not the the file, but to the deb package, yes Jul 01 12:36:40 r3tro, http://repository.maemo.org/pool/bora/free/binary/mce-dev_1.5.6_all.deb Jul 01 12:38:24 inz, thank you. what strange: if i "dbus-monitor --system" as root and enter a code via user interface, dbus-monitor shows only the following event Jul 01 12:38:38 signal sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> dest=(null destination) interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=NameOwnerChanged Jul 01 12:39:04 but no validate_devicelock_code, so it seems that the ui doesnt check the devicelock via dbus.... Jul 01 12:46:19 inz, do you know how the nokia service point handles such a case? do they have a special flasher or what? Jul 01 12:49:18 r3tro, I think you only see signals with monitor Jul 01 12:49:52 r3tro, and no idea what they would do Jul 01 12:52:23 inz, only signals: seems plausible. thank you! Jul 01 12:53:33 r3tro, btw, you can get the device out of locked state by reflashing, the code is not reset however Jul 01 12:58:52 inz, yes i read that :-/ Jul 01 13:05:56 is there a way to reset the GUI? I have a menu popup that won't go away and apparently the system forgot it's there 'cause I click right through it Jul 01 13:08:31 inz, i can now use my device again: i replaced /sbin/devlock-blocker with an empty bash script, and /usr/bin/systemui with a bash script with sleep 10 as the only argument (this seems to be the devcode ui, it gets restartet after termination until the code is deactivated) Jul 01 13:08:51 I've got cifs working now to my desktop shares. yay! Jul 01 13:09:25 inz, but i cant deativate my devlock code because the system dialog requests the old code first. how stupid is that! Jul 01 13:09:46 KaylaKaze: Did you build cifs.ko yourself? I use fanoush's antique module because I'm too lazy to build my own - would be interested in yours if you have a newer one ;) Jul 01 13:10:15 inz, so i have to keep my hack or go to nokia service point (and i think they would send it to nokia, i don't think they can handle this by themselves) Jul 01 13:12:00 no, I didn't build it. I don't know how it got installed Jul 01 13:12:15 I used appman to install some samba stuff so maybe that did it Jul 01 13:12:27 mkay Jul 01 13:12:49 is there a way to make the device scan for wlan on startup and autoconnect if it sees a particular access point? Jul 01 13:13:09 that's what it does here, actually Jul 01 13:14:12 mine might after I start web browser or something (I'm not sure) but it doesn't connect immediately on startup Jul 01 13:15:59 KaylaKaze, mine connects immediately, too. even when it's locked :-) Jul 01 13:16:26 Sho_, but maybe we have installed a package that performs an internet request at startup and triggers the wlan connection? Jul 01 13:16:42 I wonder why mine won't. Plus mine always asks for what connection to connect to Jul 01 13:16:59 dunno Jul 01 13:17:09 I just configured my connection in Control Panel and that was that Jul 01 13:17:22 If it was connected prior to shutdown, it will auto-reconnect after startup Jul 01 13:18:43 weird... Canola won't load files from my mounted cifs folder. I can't open them in Audio Player 'cause it seems the file list is so big that it crashes Jul 01 13:19:31 KaylaKaze: Primarily Maemo's "Open" dialog takes forever on large CIFS mounts because it descends into every directory and counts the number of items and so on and so on, I found Jul 01 13:19:43 KaylaKaze: I play stuff from CIFS via mplayer in XTerm ;) Jul 01 13:20:19 I don't like using xterm on the tablet 'cause typing sucks Jul 01 13:20:49 I think I got Canola working on it now Jul 01 13:21:41 KaylaKaze: canola and the built-in mediaplayer support UPNP, might be easier to setup than CIFS Jul 01 13:22:03 Canola won't work with my uPNP 'cause tghere's too much stuff Jul 01 13:30:37 is thee a way in a .sh file to prompt for the use to enter a pw and use that pw in the script as a variable? Jul 01 13:33:11 anyone here actually got bluetooth dun working on the 770? Jul 01 14:05:30 yay! I got canola to work with uPnP streaming! Jul 01 14:05:41 video's choppy but still cool Jul 01 14:22:44 apparently with UPnP, you can't fast forward and rewind :-( Jul 01 14:28:00 mplayer sucks really bad :-( Jul 01 14:28:24 how so? Jul 01 14:29:49 barely works for 1 Jul 01 14:29:58 and plain doesn't for video Jul 01 14:30:15 while playing mp3, I had to use kill to stop it Jul 01 14:30:42 video almost completely locked the system, but it crashed soon after so that freed up the lock Jul 01 14:31:03 the inteface is nonexistant and it uses the default file browser Jul 01 14:31:22 the only program I've seen so far to use a decent file browser is FBReader Jul 01 14:32:47 and WTF is up with these UPnP listing songs by their title? Songs don't go on their discs in alphabetical order! Jul 01 14:38:00 KaylaKaze: hm works fine here Jul 01 14:42:18 KaylaKaze: if the UPnP client doesn't do sorting on its own (which isn't its task normally), the sorting depends on the UPnP MediaServer Jul 01 14:44:28 I figured that was the case. I was referring to the server Jul 01 14:44:35 where do you guys buy your n800's car holder here in Finland ? Jul 01 14:45:15 I think this one kinda sucks 'cause it doesn't give me an option to scan for playlists and auto-import them Jul 01 15:00:01 ! Jul 01 15:00:16 somehow my c:\ got del *.* ! Jul 01 15:06:39 my c:\ got del *.* somehome! :-/ Jul 01 15:07:02 somehow* Jul 01 15:25:49 Irc on 770 is not fun Jul 01 15:34:09 The results of my scan are odd... Jul 01 15:55:24 I have been trying to install Plutohome packages but I cant find libxsb,libxmu among others, any pointers to arepo with them? Jul 01 15:57:24 This is odd. SimpleCenter seems to have made a ton of files in my c:\ when installed, then deleted them. Jul 01 15:57:56 Maybe it nuked my stuff in the process. Jul 01 16:05:48 :-( you can only connect to 1 irc server at a time in xchat Jul 01 16:06:46 KaylaKaze, try again, you can. Jul 01 16:06:50 at least it works here. Jul 01 16:09:13 I've got file scavenger trying to recover my nuked files but normal search didn't find them so exhaustive search is going on... slowly Jul 01 16:10:16 But that may be overkill. I don't think anything important was lost. Just some nice script files :-( Jul 01 16:44:51 I've got a problem. I'm running Hacker 2007 on an N770, and the App Manager forgot about all the apps I installed. Jul 01 16:45:57 How can I fix that? Jul 01 16:47:27 It's all based on apt, right? Jul 01 16:47:46 (Is anyone here?) Jul 01 16:49:30 * Sho_ is here, but doesn't know Jul 01 16:49:43 And I keep getting "Operation failed" when I try to update the application list. Jul 01 16:50:36 ttuttle: That's often due to a repos in the list that went down or is otherwise unreachable, I find Jul 01 16:50:53 Sho_: Would that mess up the local app list too? Jul 01 16:51:05 ttuttle: I don't think so, no Jul 01 16:52:04 Sho_: Yeah, I'm worried that a previous install messed up (perhaps the disk filled up) and blew away the installed apps list. Jul 01 16:52:45 Unfortunately I'm a Gentoo user on the desktop, so I'm not very familar with the on-disk structures of apt/dpkg either Jul 01 16:52:48 Sho_: I'm thinking I might just have to reflash it. Jul 01 16:53:03 Sho_: /me likes Gentoo too. Jul 01 16:53:16 I figured by your hostmask ;) Jul 01 16:53:24 Sho_: ;-) Jul 01 16:53:59 Marcus from Gentoo will hold a Gentoo & KDE talk on our developers conference later today :) Jul 01 16:56:01 * ttuttle is flashing... :-\ Jul 01 16:56:28 I got my N800 two weeks ago with the latest firmware pre-installed, so no flashing experience yet either ;) Jul 01 16:56:42 Sho_: You have an N800? Grr... Jul 01 16:57:06 In my defense, I didn't have an N770 when that was hip Jul 01 16:57:06 ;) Jul 01 16:58:03 Sho_: Grr. Jul 01 16:58:35 Sho_: Yours has a camera. Only dumb, *consumer* gadgets have *cameras*. *Mine* is *31337*-er! ;-) Jul 01 16:59:14 I think calling it a camera is a little inappropriate though Jul 01 16:59:20 I'd go with "pixel coloration device" Jul 01 16:59:25 Sho_: More like a multi-pixel brightness sensor with oclor filters? Jul 01 16:59:28 s/oclor/color/; Jul 01 16:59:28 Based on the image quality ... Jul 01 16:59:31 Sho_: lol Jul 01 16:59:31 yeah that fits it :) Jul 01 16:59:46 Sho_: My phone (Samsung SGH-A707) actually has a nice camera, and I can OBEX push stuff from/to it ;-) Jul 01 17:00:26 I have a crappy Moto Razr V3 that I chose because it didn't cost me anything in a contract extension and because it was nicely thin ;) Jul 01 17:00:40 Bluetoothing to it from the N800 works fine, but the camera isn't much better Jul 01 17:00:48 Sho_: /me has a shiny new "Nokia N800". Jul 01 17:01:03 Sho_: Or at least it thinks so. Jul 01 17:01:16 I should try harder to get my phone and 770 to share files. My phone has a 1GB SD in it Jul 01 17:01:54 As for the N800, I saw http://www.maemo-apps.org/CONTENT/content-pre3/47430-3.jpg and knew I needed to have one ;) Jul 01 17:02:17 that's on 770 too Jul 01 17:02:24 Sho_: what is it? Jul 01 17:02:30 the LCARS theme Jul 01 17:02:51 ttuttle: It's a theme for the OS that is reminiscent of the computer interface graphics on the modern Star Trek TV shows Jul 01 17:03:22 Sho_: Ah. Jul 01 17:03:27 ttuttle: Which is appropriate, because those shows features an assortment of touchscreen handhelds called "padds": http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/PADD Jul 01 17:03:27 I've looked at the files for theme making and there are LOTS of files you'd need to modify Jul 01 17:03:37 Sho_: What is the "internal memory card" on the N800 Jul 01 17:03:38 Of course, the hostname of my N800 is now "padd", too ;) Jul 01 17:03:51 ttuttle: There's a second SD slot under the battery cover Jul 01 17:03:57 That's the "Internal" one Jul 01 17:04:46 Sho_: Ah. Do the N770's have that? Jul 01 17:04:54 When I bought my N800 there was a 128 MB Mini-SD card in a Mini-SD-to-SD adapter in the box, I put that into the internal slot and set up the OS to use it as swap space. The external slots hold a 2 GB higher-end card from SanDisk. Jul 01 17:04:59 ttuttle: dunno Jul 01 17:05:15 ttuttle: The extra memory? no Jul 01 17:13:36 What app catalogues can I trust? Jul 01 17:16:35 Sho_: I was pissed. I tried using a 16 MB swapfile on the stock 64 MB card, and I was playing music off it too. Bad idea, everything skips. Jul 01 17:27:29 hey. how's it going? Jul 01 17:28:00 * jpt9 is running 2007 hacker edition on his 770. Jul 01 17:28:17 it's quite awesome. Jul 01 17:31:12 ttuttle: I network-mount my music collection via CIFS Jul 01 17:32:58 hmm Jul 01 17:33:03 I just got a n770 a few days ago Jul 01 17:33:10 lardman|gone: that thesis didn't include any code, just explanation (too highlevel for us) about what was done.. Jul 01 17:33:23 been doing some reading, but i can't really figure out - why would I want to install OS 2007 hacker edition? Jul 01 17:33:29 that is, what will that give me that OS 2006 doesn't? Jul 01 17:33:58 * Sho_ never used 2006 and thus doesn't know specifically Jul 01 17:34:18 Tu13es: I think it has newer software (desktop, app.mgr) and thus can more easily use stuff made for n800.. Jul 01 17:34:28 hmm Jul 01 17:34:43 worth the trouble to upgrade? Jul 01 17:34:52 Given that it's a major release, I assume pretty much everything has been updated in some fashion Jul 01 17:35:06 It seems like most people in the Maemo community are still on N770, hmhm Jul 01 17:35:11 I can't say about that, since I haven't tried it ever (I have n800). Some people are happy with it Jul 01 17:35:26 gotcha Jul 01 17:35:32 when i flashed my 770 with hacker edition all that kept happining was i was getting random reboots of my 770 so i went back to the it os 2006 and no more reboots Jul 01 17:35:38 my gf is interested in my n770, I might give that to her and pick up an n800 instead Jul 01 17:35:43 Tu13es: if you haven't yet spent too much time on your 2006, flash the 2007 and check it out Jul 01 17:36:23 I wish the N800 wasn't like $230 more than the N770, heh Jul 01 17:36:30 same Jul 01 17:36:48 im going to get an n800 for x-mass i think Jul 01 17:36:54 by then it should be cheaper Jul 01 17:37:23 340€ seemed like a pretty good deal to me Jul 01 17:37:30 anyone know off hand what size wallpapers should be for the 770? Jul 01 17:38:00 640x480 Jul 01 17:38:11 640? Jul 01 17:38:29 yes thats what im using and it give a nice crisp image Jul 01 17:39:04 the reso is 800x480, but the task navigator takes something off it Jul 01 17:39:37 ah Jul 01 17:40:10 it would be cool if there was an opption to auto hide the navigatore and then tap to get it back Jul 01 17:40:54 most apps supports the full screen mode which partly covers that Jul 01 17:41:01 yes Jul 01 17:41:04 thats true Jul 01 17:41:07 ofc, if you want fullscreen home with applets.. Jul 01 17:41:31 but then you can't start anything (expect with the launcher applet) Jul 01 17:41:54 no you would hide the taskpan and then tap to bring it back into view Jul 01 17:42:42 maybe the fullscreen button could do that? Hide tasknav and the home menu. Leave the status bar with its plugins.. Jul 01 17:42:43 let me ask you something Jul 01 17:42:57 i just ordered an 512mb rs-mmc for the 770 Jul 01 17:43:41 if i alocate 256mb of ram to the device would that help with the device not freezing up or rebooting if i decided to put on hack os 2007? Jul 01 17:44:20 because right now im just using the ram that came with it ... i beleive its 64mb Jul 01 17:44:36 Hard to say. Reboots are cause by so many issues. The swap can help if the reboots are caused by memory issues.. Jul 01 17:45:05 what would happen is when i would start hacker edition, and then go to click for the menu it would reboot Jul 01 17:45:16 or sometime opera would crash and cause a reboot Jul 01 17:45:55 i was thinking it was because it needed more ram to run the hacker edition Jul 01 17:46:17 rebooting on menu click sounds odd. Opera can take quite a lot of memory depending on the www-pages, so the swap might help there.. Jul 01 17:46:36 yes Jul 01 17:46:49 i would get random reboots on the menu clicks Jul 01 17:47:00 i would hit for the menu and whamo...a reboot Jul 01 17:47:27 thats why i think it was a matter of not enough ram Jul 01 17:47:30 i get times when my 770, i go to click a menu item, to get to like the secondary menu, and it just flashes white and closes Jul 01 17:47:49 but it's not really running slow, just the menus don't like to show Jul 01 17:48:12 i realy wish they would not have closed the development of the 770 Jul 01 17:48:18 its such a good device Jul 01 17:48:45 even when i do get an n800 ill still utilize the 770 Jul 01 17:49:15 i wish they could at least update the opera and flash just for youtube :) but thats a wet dream of mine that im sure will not be met Jul 01 17:50:18 what format should 770 wallpapers be? Jul 01 17:50:28 png? jpg? Jul 01 17:50:30 png Jul 01 17:50:36 k, thanks Jul 01 17:54:03 ah! "unable to open not enough memory" when i try to change the wallpaper.. Jul 01 17:55:17 when installing IT2007HE on my n770, can I use these directions just with the new OS file? http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto_flashlatestnokiaimagewithmacosx/ Jul 01 18:01:53 I don't know a thing about osx, but afaik, the he-edition is normal "firmware" image, so it should be flashable normally.. Jul 01 18:02:01 You're on OSX? Jul 01 18:03:39 word Jul 01 18:03:40 yeah, I am Jul 01 18:04:06 :( Jul 01 18:04:12 ? Jul 01 18:04:23 Macs are evillllllll! Jul 01 18:04:25 but besides that. Jul 01 18:04:30 meh Jul 01 18:04:30 Yeah just use the latest image Jul 01 18:04:33 cool Jul 01 18:04:37 Make sure you're using flasher 2 Jul 01 18:04:51 hm Jul 01 18:04:54 was gonna use the GUI tool Jul 01 18:05:00 bad idea? Jul 01 18:05:30 If theres a GUI tool that should work. Jul 01 18:05:38 * Dr_Nunim doesn't know anything about Mac. Jul 01 18:05:45 I thought it was command line like the linux one. Jul 01 18:06:51 The GUI should work, so I've been told. Jul 01 18:07:12 I've not tried it since I got rid of my Mac, but since I'm told it still works I haven't taken it down Jul 01 18:07:14 the official flasher is a command line tool but someone made a GUI one Jul 01 18:07:21 I generally hate the command line, as it hates me Jul 01 18:07:26 Tu13es: yeah, that'd be me :) Jul 01 18:07:36 ah :P Jul 01 18:08:16 does the n770 boot without the MMC inserted? Jul 01 18:08:20 Yes Jul 01 18:09:02 Hrm, can I add an .sh script for doing my cifs mounting? Jul 01 18:09:20 And if so do I add it like a regular debian boot time script? Jul 01 18:09:47 Can do Jul 01 18:10:20 :) Jul 01 18:12:13 USB mode is turning on the device while holding the Home button, right? Jul 01 18:12:36 Yup. Jul 01 18:12:44 Till the usb symbol appears in top right. Jul 01 18:12:48 hrm Jul 01 18:12:53 that's not working Jul 01 18:12:57 though it worked before.. Jul 01 18:12:58 hrm Jul 01 18:14:17 charger plugged? it doesn't really turn off then Jul 01 18:14:24 nope, unplugged Jul 01 18:16:04 * sp3000 hasn't needed to do the home button dance to flash on N800, not sure if it's maybe necessary on 770 Jul 01 18:16:33 Wasn't hard for me :o Jul 01 18:16:35 ah, worked with another USB port, weird Jul 01 18:16:38 Now where to find USB risers. Jul 01 18:20:22 yey, got 2007 installed Jul 01 18:51:57 Someone name their "must have" apps that will probably run on Hacker 2007. I'm looking for some to install. Jul 01 18:53:24 sound under sdl. Jul 01 18:53:43 ttuttle, im lovin' this thing Jul 01 18:53:55 ericz_: Cool. Jul 01 18:54:00 keesj: What uses SDL? Jul 01 18:54:35 i didn't realize my neighborhood had so much wifi Jul 01 18:54:43 ericz_: lol Jul 01 18:54:57 keesj: I'm getting along fine. Jul 01 18:55:10 i wish freenode had ssl though Jul 01 18:55:22 ericz_: Meh. Jul 01 18:56:25 keesj: ? Jul 01 18:57:13 searching... Jul 01 18:57:21 keesj: Ok. Jul 01 18:58:06 ttuttle: Sorry I missread you , you want wokring apps! Jul 01 18:58:54 wat there a gizmo for the n770? Jul 01 18:59:46 thinking of it what are the real killer apps, moslty video stuff I guess Jul 01 19:04:17 is there a tor port for the 700? Jul 01 19:04:23 770* Jul 01 19:05:51 keesj: what do you mean with "sound under sdl" ? Jul 01 19:06:45 hey folks Jul 01 19:07:07 jani: I remember that I tried some sdl games and they did not work on 770 hackers becasue of sound issues Jul 01 19:07:37 penpop was one of them Jul 01 19:08:40 well, i dont know about the old platform and their software revisions but as far as i know, two of the games shipping with nXXX's are sdl games and they do have working sound. Jul 01 19:08:45 without putting a full toolchain together I am having a hard time finding libXmu.so.6 for my n770 (OS 2006). Could someone please point me to a binary? Jul 01 19:09:12 I see a lot of talking about how to synchronize calendars (which I have been unsuccessful at) - has anyone tried/succeeded at doing the same with Tasks/todo? Jul 01 19:09:38 Unfortunately with that content there's no "Google Tasks" to synchronize with to ease things Jul 01 19:10:33 blocks atleast was sdl based .. Jul 01 19:11:27 Where can I get "libglade2-0 (>=1:2.3.6)"? mmpc wants it. I'm on Hacker 2007. Jul 01 19:12:07 ttuttle: did you add the standard bora repositories? I'm fairly certain it's there Jul 01 19:12:07 ttuttle: tried apt-cache search libglade2 ? Jul 01 19:12:35 megabyte405: What are they listed? I just add what App Manager asks me to :-\ Jul 01 19:12:38 ttuttle: http://www.gronmayer.com/n800/repos/index.php?lang=en Jul 01 19:12:47 i think one of the repos has ist Jul 01 19:12:55 VimSi: Thanks. Jul 01 19:13:15 if you get mmpc on the 770 to work Jul 01 19:13:19 pls msg me Jul 01 19:13:32 i wasn't able to connect to my mpd :( Jul 01 19:23:16 megabyte405: What's the standard bora repository? Jul 01 19:23:28 megabyte405: brb, I'm gonna irc from my n770. Jul 01 19:23:41 ttuttle: vimsi sent you the link Jul 01 19:23:49 megabyte405: Oh, I wasn't sure if it was the same thing. Jul 01 19:24:01 well, that's not the repository itself Jul 01 19:24:03 it lists them Jul 01 19:24:50 What's the difference between "Debian Nokia" catalogue at repository.maemo.org and nokia's site? Jul 01 19:25:36 get debian nokia (which is the maemo repository) Jul 01 19:25:44 megabyte405: Okay. extras or not? Jul 01 19:25:47 "Bora Extras" Jul 01 19:25:48 megabyte405: or both? Jul 01 19:25:52 and the other one too Jul 01 19:25:52 both Jul 01 19:25:58 megabyte405: ok Jul 01 19:26:22 And contrib? Jul 01 19:26:29 sure Jul 01 19:26:40 really, you can't add too many repositories as long as they're all credible Jul 01 19:26:44 and the maemo.org ones are Jul 01 19:26:51 megabyte405: Components? Jul 01 19:26:58 megabyte405: free and non-free? user? Jul 01 19:27:17 click the links for the install files Jul 01 19:27:44 megabyte405: Wait, on the site? I was entering them by hand :-\ Jul 01 19:28:21 yeah Jul 01 19:29:00 megabyte405: Eh, I got it entered already. Jul 01 19:29:12 megabyte405: Argh, one of them is broken. Jul 01 19:29:51 Why is repo.maemo.org listed as "mistral" for the N800? Isn't N800 bora? Jul 01 19:30:31 yeah Jul 01 19:30:36 that one is wrong Jul 01 19:30:39 Is FBreader's repo trustworthy? Jul 01 19:30:41 it should be bora Jul 01 19:30:45 I'm not sure Jul 01 19:31:15 megabyte405: Pidgin? Jul 01 19:31:31 yeah, that's fine Jul 01 19:31:39 megabyte405: Ok. Jul 01 19:31:55 megabyte405: eko.one.pl? (It has, IIRC, becomeroot and kismet.) Jul 01 19:33:31 ericz_: HEY! Jul 01 19:33:40 sup? Jul 01 19:33:54 ericz_: N770 FTW! Jul 01 19:34:00 ericz_: Are you running 2006 or Hacker 2007? Jul 01 19:34:07 i so want a 2gb rsmmc now. Jul 01 19:34:13 2006 Jul 01 19:34:33 ericz_: Me too. You should try Hacker 2007. It's nice. A little unstable, but UI has some great improvements. Jul 01 19:34:54 too scared to flsh. flash is like a dirty word Jul 01 19:35:13 ericz_: Oh, I've done it twice on mine and once on my brother's. It's easy. Jul 01 19:35:37 ericz_: (Just make sure any data you need is backed up and everything's plugged in and charged.) Jul 01 19:35:55 heh, i considered flashing my router for months before i finally did it Jul 01 19:36:14 ericz_: I bought my second one with the knowledge that I would need to flash it to do what I wanted ;-) Jul 01 19:36:23 lol Jul 01 19:37:09 i was so nervous doing the tftp flash on my v5 wrt54g Jul 01 19:37:27 ericz: to a linksys firmware or a 3rd party? :) Jul 01 19:37:41 megabyte405: How can I tell what packages come from a repo? Jul 01 19:37:47 ddwrt Jul 01 19:37:52 dd-wrt ftw Jul 01 19:37:57 ericz_: DD-WRT FTW^2! Jul 01 19:38:04 megabyte405: Can I trust maemo-hackers.org? Jul 01 19:38:07 i bricked a wrt54g v5 once Jul 01 19:38:08 yeah Jul 01 19:38:21 i've got a buffalo router that i like much better nw Jul 01 19:38:22 now Jul 01 19:38:41 yeah, i only did it to forward more than 10 ports ad static dhcp Jul 01 19:38:57 worked fine Jul 01 19:38:59 Tu13es: Eh, I've fixed ones I thought were bricked. Jul 01 19:39:04 ericz_: Yeah, I needed it for WDS. Jul 01 19:39:09 this one was bricked Jul 01 19:39:15 Tu13es: Like totally? Jul 01 19:39:23 well, short of possibly reflashing with a JTAG connector or whatever Jul 01 19:39:34 but yeah, I tried _everything_, it was bricked Jul 01 19:39:44 Tu13es: They should just throw in a $0.10 chip that lets you reflash it *directly* using a serial port. Jul 01 19:39:57 i thouht i bricked mine, but i rebooted it and it was fine Jul 01 19:39:57 i agree Jul 01 19:40:12 Cool, this thing runs dnsmasq? Jul 01 19:41:35 So do I. It's cool that a 250 MHz ARM handheld and my home server run the same software. Jul 01 19:42:09 i think this does better than 3 hours battery life Jul 01 19:42:20 maybe? Jul 01 19:42:41 g2g Jul 01 19:49:36 ericz_: It depends what you do with it. The wlan chip drains power pretty quickly if it's constantly used. Jul 01 19:51:23 just been on xchat for awhile with occasional browsing Jul 01 19:52:24 seems to be lasting awhile, been connected over 2 hrs, still 2 bars on the battery icon Jul 01 19:52:43 was full when i first connected Jul 01 19:54:19 Don't trust the battery icon to be too accurate though Jul 01 19:57:10 lxdoom just made it drop a bar Jul 01 19:57:21 but its awesome Jul 01 19:58:52 I can't really get the hang of the controls, it's just too damn difficult to dodge and aim Jul 01 20:04:44 yeah, turning is weird Jul 01 20:08:10 If there was a ministick instead of the dpad, so you could control the movement with that and just aim by stylys with center of the screen being an anchor for a relative movement, *then* it could be cool to play it Jul 01 20:08:25 * zeenix wonders how much he can get out of selling a mac mini and a 17" CRT Jul 01 20:08:53 I doubt the CRT will yield much Jul 01 20:09:23 * zuh would spit on it if someone tried to sell a CRT to me Jul 01 20:11:34 wouldnt go well w/ dual lcds Jul 01 20:17:45 without putting a full toolchain together I am having a hard time finding libXmu.so.6 for my n770 (OS 2006). Could someone please point me to a binary?

I'm pretty sure they've picked up a few typos during the last few days. (I just got my Nokia 770 yesterday.) Jul 01 20:49:20 jpt9 - don't think there is, other than a full reset (reflash) Jul 01 20:49:43 there problably is a way, but i've never seen it publicised Jul 01 20:51:25 they've gotta be stored somewhere. it seems a bit foolish of Nokia to implement customizable dictionaries, but not implement a separate user dictionary that can be edited if need be.

Jul 01 21:06:13 apt-get install syslog (i think) Jul 01 21:07:35 hmm i dont think its a package ;) Jul 01 21:07:40 it is Jul 01 21:07:50 maybe not syslog - try syslogd Jul 01 21:08:03 am just doing some checks to see if you need a special repository Jul 01 21:08:58 "apt-get install syslogd" should do the trick Jul 01 21:09:16 its not a package Jul 01 21:09:16 E: Couldn't find package syslogd Jul 01 21:09:22 hmmm Jul 01 21:09:46 what catalog addresses you have? Jul 01 21:10:05 i just checked it on an n800, i installed syslog _ages_ ago on my 770 Jul 01 21:10:13 but it's not to hand right now Jul 01 21:10:32 ;\ Jul 01 21:10:32 Aloha! Jul 01 21:11:07 is there a better cmd then apt-cache search syslog ? Jul 01 21:11:14 like yum provides syslogd ? hhe Jul 01 21:11:15 heh Jul 01 21:14:13 obviously searching the new and improved maemo.org for information is a complete waste of time now - zero hits for "syslog" in mail archives Jul 01 21:14:17 :( Jul 01 21:18:04 Niacin: http://repository.maemo.org gregale free non-free Jul 01 21:19:52 great thanks man Jul 01 21:19:54 worked Jul 01 21:19:57 cool Jul 01 21:26:32 can i add a line in /etc/sudoers so that i can sudo from xterm with 'user' ? Jul 01 21:27:12 or would that break anything? Jul 01 21:29:17 hey Jul 01 21:29:21 i found the user dictionary Jul 01 21:29:35 ~/.osso/hildon-input-method/.personal.dictionary Jul 01 21:29:42 i have no clue what format the file is in, though... Jul 01 21:30:39 any ideas? Jul 01 21:32:41 i suppose you could try deleting/zapping the files to see if you can start from scratch, but editing looks a bit tricky Jul 01 21:34:37 iPhone processor details - it's a nippy bastard: http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/01/iphone-processor-found-620mhz-arm Jul 01 21:34:57 still don't know how the iPhone with that CPU can eek out 6 hours on WiFi Jul 01 21:35:04 when the N800 can manage only 4 hours Jul 01 21:35:43 does that mean the iPhone has a much bigger battery (I'd buy a bigger battery for my N800 if one was available!) or that Nokia can do more to improve power management in OS 2007? Jul 01 21:36:42 milhouse: on wifi doing what? Jul 01 21:36:50 ah, that's the question i suppose Jul 01 21:36:56 theres also things like.. different screen Jul 01 21:37:34 me, surfing wikipedia (so far more reading than downloading) leads to about 4 and a bit hours of usage from a fresh charge Jul 01 21:37:59 i suspect the backlight sucks up a lot of juice, a small amount of cpu for scrolling and page loading, then the rest on wifi? Jul 01 21:38:04 must have brightness on high Jul 01 21:38:13 75% Jul 01 21:38:15 on lowest brightness i was getting 8-10 hours Jul 01 21:38:24 i could try it lower i guess Jul 01 21:38:45 but still, the announced iPhone figures seem quite impressive but without context it's hard to compare Jul 01 21:40:48 * pupnik will always be a Tablet guy, and if a cellfone is necessary it will be the cheapest POS available Jul 01 21:40:54 depends on wifi environment too you know Jul 01 21:41:15 yeah, will be interesting to find out some "real life" performance figures over the coming weeks Jul 01 21:41:43 I hope they _are_ good figures, as it means that Nokia can improve Jul 01 21:42:29 AH! i keep opening my browser, and before the page even comes up, it closes.. Jul 01 21:43:23 http://www.floridatreasure.net/pictures/ppics/iphoneboy.jpg Jul 01 21:43:33 nice - bloom county is back (iphone comic) Jul 01 21:44:27 ...what do i do Jul 01 21:44:56 without putting a full toolchain together I am having a hard time finding libXmu.so.6 for my n770 (OS 2006). Could someone please point me to a binary? Jul 01 21:46:31 apt-get install libxmu6 ? Jul 01 21:47:13 what's up with my browser Jul 01 21:47:17 oh nm - i have it compiled here padrino Jul 01 21:47:17 im connected, i've rebooted Jul 01 21:47:20 it keeps closing Jul 01 21:47:31 what can i do Jul 01 21:48:52 ericz - anything in dmesg? Jul 01 21:49:00 uh, i just unplugged the charger Jul 01 21:49:02 and now it works? Jul 01 21:49:05 coincidence, i bet Jul 01 21:49:59 man, this thing is too weird, its working now.. no reason Jul 01 21:51:24 whats the command in xterm to run the browser manually? Jul 01 21:51:31 and will that output errors, if it happens again? Jul 01 21:51:40 good question Jul 01 21:54:38 browser.launch segfaults here and browser does nothing Jul 01 21:55:58 pupnik, can you DCC, email, or send via another method you prefer? Jul 01 21:56:45 apt-cache search libxmu shows libxmu6 on my N770 with IT2007HE Jul 01 21:56:57 padrino: you should be able to run "apt-get install libxmu6" Jul 01 21:57:24 Booga booga. Jul 01 21:58:10 Anyone know where to find the smbfs support for the 770 that smbbrowser requires? Jul 01 21:58:11 https://garage.maemo.org/projects/smbbrowser/ Jul 01 21:58:13 pupnik, I have all repos listed on Maemo along with a couple of other 3rd party ones and it is not in any of them. Jul 01 21:59:18 what OS? Jul 01 21:59:18 padrino, I have found it in 2007 and I see some software that uses it in 2006 but I haven't found the library via a deb or standalone Jul 01 21:59:31 pupnik, 2006 Jul 01 21:59:33 it2006/mistral? Jul 01 21:59:50 pupnik, yes, using the rev it came with. Jul 01 22:00:22 :( Jul 01 22:01:18 pupnik, should I upgrade? I took a look yesterday but didn't see a real beenfit in using HE. Jul 01 22:01:29 ah it's... well i dunno... Jul 01 22:01:33 (only had the device one day) Jul 01 22:01:47 i'm looking at my libxmu and will see if i can make a deb for you Jul 01 22:01:57 I'm in the same boat, padrino. You buys yours from buy.com? Jul 01 22:02:55 Xenon3DN, Woot.. Jul 01 22:03:09 Ahh. Think they both got stock of them at the same time. Jul 01 22:03:14 pupnik, I'll take just the library.. Jul 01 22:03:25 pupnik, no need to go through the trouble if you don't want to Jul 01 22:04:39 ah it wants a higher level of debhelper Jul 01 22:04:53 Has anyone figured out how to mount an SMB filesystem on a 770 under 2006 OS? Jul 01 22:06:07 hmm dependencies also a problem Jul 01 22:07:42 pupnik, ahh, maybe 2007 isn't a bad idea after all :) Jul 01 22:09:36 http://pupnik.de/Netrek_0_01_tinyfont.jpg <<-- that game needs libxmu too Jul 01 22:13:47 pokute: would you test it for me? i think i've got the dependencies fixed Jul 01 22:26:08 http://rapidshare.com/files/40485907/libxmu6_1.0.2-2_armel.deb.html Jul 01 22:26:25 padrino: sorry got your nick wrong Jul 01 22:33:22 hey. Jul 01 22:33:30 hiya Jul 01 22:34:33 is there a way to make a backup of my 770 that i could reflash to it if i needed, like with all my apps and stuff? Jul 01 22:34:48 only on to MMC Jul 01 22:36:02 Can i take a N800 motherboard and drop it in a 770 case? Jul 01 22:36:10 pupnik, trying it now.. Jul 01 22:36:57 milhouse: but i can't back up apps, just documents, right? Jul 01 22:37:13 pupnik: too big i'd have thought - you might need to chop off the right hand speaker... ;) Jul 01 22:37:28 ttuttle: using the standard backup tool, correct Jul 01 22:37:47 tuttle: if you want to "backup" your apps, the best you can do is dual boot from MMC Jul 01 22:37:49 stupid question milhouse Jul 01 22:38:05 however reinstalling apps isn't that difficult if you set up a web page with a list of one-click install links Jul 01 22:38:09 i'd just love the speed and memory of the n800 on the 770 Jul 01 22:38:30 pupnik - i too miss the 770 form factor and slide-on case :( Jul 01 22:38:39 pupnik: mmm yeah... n770 rocks! Jul 01 22:38:53 screen protector? Jul 01 22:39:06 i think the N800 is pretty fugly to be honest, the next version needs a serious make over to compete with future devices (inc. the iPhone) Jul 01 22:39:21 I'm probably going to have grey hairs before someone makes a tablet that will replace my 770 Jul 01 22:40:13 pupnik, Thanks.. I had a missing dependency with x11-common but ignoring it got it installed and it works.. Jul 01 22:40:42 ok i'll see if i can remove that - let me know if you run into any other issues, please Jul 01 22:40:52 the n800 has second system syndrome... it's overengineered. and ugly. the 770 looks cooler. and i'm not just saying that because i have one ;-) Jul 01 22:41:34 Well everyone has different priorities but for me the 770 has a classic look that won't be emulated by anything again, imo Jul 01 22:42:13 pupnik: exactly! Jul 01 22:42:28 and i really like how slim it is Jul 01 22:43:01 * ttuttle high-fives pupnik. Jul 01 22:43:09 milhouse: hm, totally different impression here: the n700 was pretty ugly and looking unfinished, like prototype hardware, and the n800 looks rather nice and slick Jul 01 22:43:11 http://pupnik.de/aliens_nokia_onscreenbuttons.jpg <-- ttuttle, do those onscreen buttons look ok to you? Jul 01 22:43:16 why do you need the n770s flipcovers? Jul 01 22:43:31 whats wrong with a screen protector? Jul 01 22:43:49 and wifi kicks the ass of cellular data, especially not 3G. coughiphonecough Jul 01 22:44:15 Sho_ - I think the N800 looks very dated while the 770 also looked dated it's muted colours and slide on case were quite stylish (industrial, if you will). Jul 01 22:44:47 milhouse: like I said, I have about the opposite impression here :) Jul 01 22:44:48 At least they don't look like cheapo korean stuff Jul 01 22:44:55 rhys: do you own a 770? Jul 01 22:45:00 rhys: er, a screen protector is not a solid barrier, and it mars the image. Jul 01 22:45:23 no Jul 01 22:45:38 sho_ - yeah, it obviously appeals to some but I think Nokia can do much better in future Jul 01 22:45:41 Sho_ is just sayingly Jul 01 22:45:49 er, sayinged Jul 01 22:45:56 ARGH! Jul 01 22:46:04 rhys - if you had a 770 you'd realise the versatily and function of the case cover - it was so much more than a screen protector Jul 01 22:46:11 although that was it's primary function of course :) Jul 01 22:46:13 And isn't the slide-on thingie on the N770 simply annoying? Jul 01 22:46:20 saying that because Sho_ has an 800. Jul 01 22:46:21 no, it was GREAT! Jul 01 22:46:36 it put the device into sleep mode and took it out of sleep mode - like magic Jul 01 22:46:43 ttuttle: Or maybe I have an 800 because the 770 didn't strike my fancy? ;) Jul 01 22:46:44 :) Jul 01 22:46:59 My N800 is so much less well protected than my 770 Jul 01 22:47:06 mine is coming tommarow. Jul 01 22:47:13 770? Jul 01 22:47:40 Sho_: maybe you're justifying the higher price to yourself... ;-) Jul 01 22:48:14 rhys: congrats! Jul 01 22:48:15 85$ more didnt seem bad for the extra proc, ram and flash, plus flash 7 instead of 6. Jul 01 22:48:16 * Sho_ has a protection foil on the display and uses that nice fleece sleeve that came with the n800 and feels adequately protected Jul 01 22:48:30 ttuttle: IIRC the N770 was about the same when it came out Jul 01 22:48:35 if i dont think its protected enough, out comes the rhino guard. Jul 01 22:48:37 ttuttle: or even a little more Jul 01 22:48:40 the slide case is the best part of the 770. Jul 01 22:48:55 For me the n900 needs to be a n800 with better dpad, a sliding cover, and buttons on the right (and multi-button pressing) Jul 01 22:49:13 pupnik: and some style! :) Jul 01 22:49:29 hm, if it has one of those ugly slide covers (I just hate having multiple parts ..) I'll probably not buy it :) Jul 01 22:49:37 Oh and better build quality. These mexican n800s are too often having problems Jul 01 22:49:39 It's so useful though. Jul 01 22:49:45 It's like, oh I'm done for now? Jul 01 22:49:45 What the hell for? :) Jul 01 22:49:52 the good thing about the 770 cover was that you didn't have to use it :) Jul 01 22:49:55 Slide on cover, instant lock and offline mode. Jul 01 22:49:57 Sho_: you can leave the slide cover off Jul 01 22:50:01 it worked perfectly without it Jul 01 22:50:02 pupnik: what kind of probles? Jul 01 22:50:03 problems Jul 01 22:50:16 I have had no physical problems with my N800 Jul 01 22:50:40 this is just from internettablettalk.com forums. Dead areas on screen, other issues. Hard to say if there is *really* a quality-control problem or not Jul 01 22:50:58 so don't take this as defaming the n800 please Jul 01 22:51:49 no problem, pupnik. I'm just curious since I have one and I would like to know what could go wrong with it before it happens :-) Jul 01 22:51:52 Re: dead areas Jul 01 22:51:53 oh- is there a way to disable the auto offline with the lid on? Jul 01 22:52:05 I noticed this bug of mine recently got aliased to an internal Nokia bug id: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1069 Jul 01 22:52:17 which maybe suggests a firmware fix is in the offing Jul 01 22:52:40 I had to get my N800 screen replaced Jul 01 22:52:50 due to lack of sensitivity (seems OK so far +2 months on) Jul 01 22:53:37 ttutle - yes, there's a checkbox in Connections if I recall correctly Jul 01 22:53:43 what's the bug? Jul 01 22:53:57 it's about loss of sensitivity on N800s (read it :) ) Jul 01 22:54:03 ok Jul 01 22:54:48 if you check the activity, it was assigned and aliased to Nokia ID #55922 on 28 June Jul 01 22:56:08 milhouse: i don't see it. Jul 01 22:56:37 click the "View Bug Activity" link just above the first comment Jul 01 22:56:57 oh, the case option? doh Jul 01 22:57:04 i meant the lid thing. Jul 01 22:57:11 yeah, i'm with you now... Jul 01 22:57:18 erm... it's in their somewhere Jul 01 22:57:34 maybe check Display (in Control Panel)? Jul 01 22:58:45 or Connectivity Jul 01 22:58:56 milhouse: ah. problem is i'm running hacker, which thinks it's on an n800, which doesn't have the lid. Jul 01 23:01:36 ttuttle: and your 770 turns into offline-mode when you slid the lid on ?! Jul 01 23:01:46 slide Jul 01 23:01:51 hmm, lemme try. Jul 01 23:02:06 because mine doesn't Jul 01 23:02:28 well, it turns the screen on and off. Jul 01 23:02:42 but the connections stay alive, right ? Jul 01 23:02:47 anyone managed to get bluetooth dun working with their cell phone? Jul 01 23:03:00 Niacin: yes Jul 01 23:03:20 ttuttle: i'm having issues with mine and tmobile.. think you could lend a hand? :) Jul 01 23:03:33 i think its the ppp script + chatscript Jul 01 23:03:42 any chance you can pastebin.ca yours? Jul 01 23:03:47 niacin: well i have cingular... Jul 01 23:03:57 /time Jul 01 23:03:59 well just a sample of the scripts would be great Jul 01 23:04:03 ttutle - aha! Jul 01 23:04:08 im sure i can tweak the tmobile stuff Jul 01 23:04:42 what phone are you using? Jul 01 23:04:44 * VimSi is going to slepp... it awfully early here Jul 01 23:04:49 gn8 Jul 01 23:05:19 Niacin - if it's a recent Windows Mobile phone you might be have a few problems... Jul 01 23:07:25 the automatic gui thingy has works fine with most phones for setting up bt dun.. Jul 01 23:07:29 worked Jul 01 23:07:35 damn. should go to sleep I suppose. Jul 01 23:08:01 gla55 - true, but Win Mob 5 AKU3 dropped support for BT DUN entirely Jul 01 23:08:07 so if it's a WM5 AKU3... Jul 01 23:08:24 nice... Skype on N800 video http://youtube.com/watch?v=tInERBYH9JE Jul 01 23:09:18 anyone know if the N800 has dropped below $360 on Amazon? Jul 01 23:09:23 arse, I take that back - Skype doesn't appear apart from the logo in the taskbar :( Jul 01 23:09:28 logo==icon Jul 01 23:10:40 no i'm wrong again, Skype makes an appearance about 40 seconds into the vid Jul 01 23:10:50 hehe Jul 01 23:10:57 nice, nice Jul 01 23:11:08 they finally ported skype to n800? Jul 01 23:11:17 yeah Jul 01 23:11:28 that'll make a lot of people happy Jul 01 23:11:33 the people demonstrating sound oriental... Jul 01 23:11:52 na Jul 01 23:11:53 like Chinese maybe Jul 01 23:11:55 its a blackberry Jul 01 23:12:03 and it works fine in windows xp / vista / mac osx Jul 01 23:12:07 just not my 770 Jul 01 23:12:59 wait Jul 01 23:13:00 skype? Jul 01 23:13:48 grr.. i hate skype. im just gonna get everyone to use gizmo. Jul 01 23:13:58 everyone I know uses Skype Jul 01 23:13:58 I should have gotten more n770s when I had the chance Jul 01 23:14:08 at the w00t price Jul 01 23:14:17 they're gone now? Jul 01 23:14:17 which is why GoogleTalk is of no value to me whatsoever Jul 01 23:15:23 milhouse, the few people I know will use gizmo. Jul 01 23:15:31 milhouse: how does skype generate revenue? Jul 01 23:15:57 brlancer - a percentage of overseas calls? Jul 01 23:16:07 and maybe calls to landlines? Jul 01 23:16:16 i think skype-to-skype is 100% free Jul 01 23:16:34 people i know run their business over skype... Jul 01 23:16:42 buy.com has it Jul 01 23:16:43 http://www.buy.com/prod/nokia-770-internet-tablet-internet-tablet-2006-software-edition/q/loc/101/204081472.html Jul 01 23:16:46 $139 Jul 01 23:17:52 @xmas I had trouble with buy.com sitting on an "in stock" shipment Jul 01 23:18:20 I ended up ordering it elsewhere and trying to cancel buy.com's--which they "immediately" shipped and I couldn't cancel Jul 01 23:19:12 rfcomm0: 00:0F:86:A0:54:E2 channel 0 clean Jul 01 23:19:19 it binds fine... its gotta be the ppp script Jul 01 23:19:40 the n770 would make a good stereo component for "radio" Jul 01 23:26:01 Niacin - what phone is it? Jul 01 23:26:27 more importantly, what OS Jul 01 23:26:31 blackberry 8700 Jul 01 23:26:32 is on the phone Jul 01 23:26:38 ah, BB have issues too Jul 01 23:26:44 works fine one all other OS's Jul 01 23:26:45 ;\ Jul 01 23:26:55 with no drivers... just standard bluetooth DUN Jul 01 23:28:02 at least, I thought blackberries were a little iffy Jul 01 23:28:15 anyone know a good site for tv listings that works well on the 770/800? or an app? Jul 01 23:30:01 does the BlackBerry 8700 support Bluetooth DUN? Jul 01 23:30:39 is abiword for the 770 stable? Jul 01 23:31:12 Anyone know a good UK vendor for the 770? Jul 01 23:31:20 The one that someone linked to was out of stock until the 15th. Jul 01 23:32:31 milhouse not directly... i have an app loaded that gives you dun support Jul 01 23:32:38 works fine on all OS's i have tried Jul 01 23:33:43 Dr Nunim - expansys is the cheapest so far, is that who you mean are out of stock (stock arriving 14 July) Jul 01 23:33:54 Yeah. Jul 01 23:34:06 My UK friend wants one after seeing that I got one from woot. Jul 01 23:34:11 Amazon UK have the 770 in stock for £169 *with* Nav kit Jul 01 23:34:13 First I told him to try here and next buy.com Jul 01 23:34:17 gonna try on my centos machine Jul 01 23:34:22 Buy.com won't ship to the UK for some silly reason. Jul 01 23:34:25 (it's more expensive WITHOUT the Nav kit!) Jul 01 23:34:47 lol Jul 01 23:35:00 Yeah but it looses it's budget item value at $169 Jul 01 23:35:17 £169 not $169 :( Jul 01 23:35:28 I don't have that key. Jul 01 23:35:28 :p Jul 01 23:35:36 ah, of course Jul 01 23:35:42 I ment that though. Jul 01 23:35:45 think it would be ALT-something for you :) Jul 01 23:35:46 Do you guys have a $ key btw? Jul 01 23:35:55 ‡ê Jul 01 23:36:39 ALT-0163 :) Jul 01 23:38:08 Anyone know a good tv listings site that works well on opera on a n770? Jul 01 23:40:24 local or general network? Jul 01 23:40:30 (listings, that is) Jul 01 23:41:06 local antenna listings Jul 01 23:41:40 Niacin - your BB issue, are you on Cingular/AT&T? Jul 01 23:41:45 hopefully something light on graphics Jul 01 23:42:13 http://www.mobileplanet.com/p.aspx?i=141019&partner=froogle Jul 01 23:42:17 whoops Jul 01 23:43:03 They seem to be a expansys sister company Jul 01 23:53:52 milhouse tmobile Jul 01 23:54:39 hrm, my n770 doesn't appear to sleep wireless in IT2007HE, any ideas? Jul 01 23:55:05 ah ok, there's a bug in the Phone Wizard on Cingular connections Jul 02 00:09:12 What does R&D mode do, besides bypass the check on gainroot? Jul 02 00:09:18 And the pretty green messages, and the tool icon? Jul 02 00:17:51 Hey, does anyone know where to get syntax highlighting for Vim on the Nokia 770? Jul 02 00:19:16 you don't need to get it; just enable it. Jul 02 00:19:32 jpt9: Er, no. Jul 02 00:19:45 ~/MyDocs/Python $ vim test.py Jul 02 00:19:46 Error detected while processing /home/user/.vimrc: Jul 02 00:19:46 line 3: Jul 02 00:19:46 E484: Can't open file /usr/share/vim/vim70/syntax/syntax.vim Jul 02 00:19:46 Press ENTER or type command to continue Jul 02 00:19:58 well, huh... Jul 02 00:20:04 whoops... Jul 02 00:20:06 jpt9: Where'd you get your vim package? Jul 02 00:20:17 jpt9: Were you running it on your computer, not your N770? Jul 02 00:20:40 I can always scp the files from my laptop. Jul 02 00:22:29 jpt9: ...? Jul 02 00:23:03 maemo.org... Jul 02 00:23:20 jpt9: Hmm, that's where I got mine. click to install? Jul 02 00:23:30 i think Jul 02 00:23:38 I'll reinstall it. Jul 02 00:23:43 ok Jul 02 00:23:53 * ttuttle loves having a pocket-sized Debian system. Jul 02 00:24:06 * jpt9 does too. Jul 02 00:24:34 It's so @#$%#$% cool! Jul 02 00:24:58 is there a better image viewer for 770 than the default? Jul 02 00:25:00 Anyone know of a better editor for Python? Jul 02 00:25:07 i know. we all know :-) Jul 02 00:25:20 editor for python? you mean a text editor? Jul 02 00:25:35 KaylaKaze: Yeah. For Python code that I'm developing *on* the N770 *for* the N770 ;-) Jul 02 00:25:46 Is this bad? "dpkg: serious warning: files list file for package `gstreamer0.10-hantro' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed." Jul 02 00:25:54 well, 1, I'd suggest not using the 770 for writing the code :-P Jul 02 00:26:02 KaylaKaze: Over ssh, most likely. Jul 02 00:26:15 KaylaKaze: why? it's python Jul 02 00:26:23 what's wrong with vim? it's pretty much the best editor you'll get on the n770 for programming in any language Jul 02 00:26:31 jpt9: It's the text input. Jul 02 00:26:34 damn it Jul 02 00:26:36 why not just mount a share and edit the file directly with a IDE or good text editor? Jul 02 00:26:37 im so close to gettin this working Jul 02 00:26:44 Is it feasible to install a full toolchain on the N770, anyway? Jul 02 00:26:51 KaylaKaze: 'cause Vim *is* a good text editor, and it works now. Jul 02 00:26:51 I use nano for text editing on ssy though Jul 02 00:27:02 http://www.pastebin.ca/599112 Jul 02 00:27:05 i wish the 770 had nfs server Jul 02 00:27:12 i think that means the chat script is wrong right? Jul 02 00:27:31 aren't you using ssh? and therefore your laptop's keyboard? Jul 02 00:27:41 ssh* Jul 02 00:28:12 or am i missing something? Jul 02 00:28:26 jpt9: No, I'm using the laptop, but I might want to use the N770 itself. For example on the bus. Jul 02 00:28:42 jpt9: I have a 90 minute commute to and from work, might as well get some coding done :-) Jul 02 00:28:42 oh. Jul 02 00:29:09 yeah, you'll get about 15 minutes worth of normal coding in 90 minutes on the 770 Jul 02 00:29:12 hmm.... Jul 02 00:29:16 lol... Jul 02 00:29:35 I can't even stand to type a whole mount command on the 770 Jul 02 00:29:36 KaylaKaze: lol Jul 02 00:29:44 well, if you use vim's abbreviations... Jul 02 00:29:47 KaylaKaze: Maybe I'll write a kickass IDE with autocompletion and stuff. Jul 02 00:29:49 jpt9: Ooh, good idea. Jul 02 00:29:57 yeah. Jul 02 00:30:17 so, about that image viewer... is there one? Jul 02 00:31:08 also, the n770's hwr is simpliwrite... i've used the palm version before. Jul 02 00:31:16 jpt9: Ah. Jul 02 00:31:21 jpt9: It's pretty good, I think. Jul 02 00:31:23 KaylaKaze - try Quiver Jul 02 00:32:43 KaylaKaze: there is a great new one - forgot the name - probably on garage now. i prefer gqview Jul 02 00:32:59 this is so fun chatting on irc from the living room couch, Jul 02 00:33:31 downloading quiver... Jul 02 00:36:28 sweet! Quiver has direct filesystem access Jul 02 00:37:43 Python works! Jul 02 00:37:54 amazing Jul 02 00:37:56 of course it does Jul 02 00:38:11 Yeah, but it's cool. I can code on the N770! Jul 02 00:40:57 I tried to do some php on mine Jul 02 00:41:00 but it took too long. Jul 02 00:42:01 n770 ftw! Jul 02 00:42:38 Don't forget scummvm, mplayer... Jul 02 00:42:57 a few xmame games work great Jul 02 00:42:58 http://youtube.com/watch?v=tInERBYH9JE Jul 02 00:43:03 hi unique311 Jul 02 00:43:04 skype clip Jul 02 00:43:12 whats up? Jul 02 00:43:25 avoiding anything productive as usual Jul 02 00:47:02 this quiver may not be bad for comic book viewing Jul 02 00:54:41 with a little bit of improved functionality, quiver would be great for comic viewing Jul 02 00:57:56 I wonder if they use any special optimized code for file loading or if the same could be accomplished with a normal image load such as in python or gdk Jul 02 00:58:51 People bitching about myspace on woot forums must be some idiots. Jul 02 00:58:59 Works fine, slow as it might be due to bad user page layouts. Jul 02 01:00:24 cd /media Jul 02 01:00:28 eek Jul 02 01:01:48 gaim must be causing my issues with menus flashing white and closing Jul 02 01:02:29 haven't had the issue all day, until now, when i use gaim Jul 02 01:08:57 hmm i think i figured out whats wrong Jul 02 01:09:04 its binding to the wrong port Jul 02 01:09:26 eh channel not port Jul 02 01:10:11 It'd be nice to be able to replace the default file browser for when a program uses File-Open Jul 02 01:18:49 what is python osso? Jul 02 01:32:08 Is there any way to check Gmail with POP without making messages disappear? Jul 02 01:43:55 ttuttle: yes, it's all in the gmail setting Jul 02 01:43:59 settings Jul 02 01:45:39 Sulis_: hmm. I've had problems with it before. Jul 02 01:45:54 with it deleting messages? Jul 02 01:45:59 i've never had that Jul 02 01:46:12 Sulis_: No, they just don't show up in POP after I've fetched them once. Jul 02 01:46:18 Sulis_: They aren't deleted or archived. Jul 02 01:47:30 hmm, that doesn't happen for me... Jul 02 01:47:43 shit. I broke my cifs connecting Jul 02 01:49:44 ttuttle: there's a setting that says "Enable POP for all mail (even mail that's already been downloaded)" Jul 02 01:50:35 and I fixed it. If anyone wants cifs sharing, I've determined it's the "smbbrowser" package that'll do it Jul 02 01:52:09 Sulis_: I don't know if that works. I think it just resets it to show all messages, but they still disappear after you fetch them once. Jul 02 01:53:32 well...it works for me, i always get all the mail that's been sent to me... Jul 02 02:02:12 Is it possible to get the 770 to cause a cell phone to dial a certain number, like if you look it up in Contacts? Jul 02 02:02:42 there's an app for that Jul 02 02:03:10 milhouse: Oh? Jul 02 02:03:16 milhouse: Is it the one that uses gnokii? Jul 02 02:03:29 can't remember what it's called and... maemo.org/downloads is down :( Jul 02 02:03:45 oh :-( Jul 02 02:05:42 well, i'm going to bed. g'nite, and thanks to all for the help. Jul 02 02:08:21 * pupnik_ pees on DRM Jul 02 02:08:49 ttuttle - in case you check back via google... it's called phonelink Jul 02 02:09:05 take a dump for me too pupnik ;) Jul 02 02:10:51 Hi Jul 02 02:11:05 * Dr_Nunim is thinking of stenciling Che on the cover of his 770. Jul 02 02:11:22 any news on voip for 770? Jul 02 02:11:39 just got Gizmo to work as a sip client for my asterisk box Jul 02 02:11:55 but when i use it to call phones outside my network, i can hear them but they can't hear me Jul 02 02:12:29 what other sip/iax clients are there for maemo? Jul 02 02:15:39 duno Jul 02 02:15:47 :) Jul 02 02:16:20 Still hoping to find someone who knows something about installing smbfs or cifs on 770/2006/mistral. Jul 02 02:16:45 I've got cifs running Jul 02 02:16:51 i never really tried - someone here did Jul 02 02:16:53 install smbbrowser Jul 02 02:17:10 then you can use mount -t cifs to mount windows shares Jul 02 02:17:24 Smbbroswer says it needs the smbfs package: Jul 02 02:17:25 https://garage.maemo.org/projects/smbbrowser/ Jul 02 02:17:31 Is that incorrect then? Jul 02 02:17:40 download smbclient Jul 02 02:17:40 yeah Jul 02 02:17:48 smclient and smbbrowser Jul 02 02:17:52 smbclient* Jul 02 02:17:52 smbclient allows u to mount cifs Jul 02 02:17:54 Well, shooooot. Jul 02 02:17:59 not by itself it doesn't Jul 02 02:18:08 Xenon3DN - check http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/#mmcplus Jul 02 02:18:14 cifs modules Jul 02 02:18:17 are there Jul 02 02:18:26 E: Couldn't find package smbclient Jul 02 02:18:29 is there a slingplayer for maemo? Jul 02 02:18:34 I unistalled all my samba stuff to make room and when I couldn't mount(thinking cifs wasn't samba) I install smbclient first and it still didn't work Jul 02 02:18:58 Nokia-N800-48:~# apt-cache search smb Jul 02 02:18:58 mc - midnight commander - a powerful file manager Jul 02 02:19:09 smbclient just shows up in my appman. I don't know repositoy I have listed that has it though Jul 02 02:19:20 milhouse: Not immediately seeing sny smb-related there. Hit me with the clue-by-4. Jul 02 02:19:27 I'm trying to decide if I should install mc Jul 02 02:19:44 last time i looked at smb stuff it was many megabytes Jul 02 02:20:13 with maemo.org down, you might not be able to get it right now Jul 02 02:20:14 Xenon3DN - download the tar file, it contains smbfs and lots of other filesystem support Jul 02 02:20:27 it's about 6 megs for smbclient and smbbrowser Jul 02 02:20:31 it only mentions a subset of the supported modules on the web page... Jul 02 02:21:13 https://garage.maemo.org/projects/smbbrowser/ Jul 02 02:21:27 if you don't mind me asking, what are you looking to do with smb? Jul 02 02:21:31 so that repository may have the smblite Jul 02 02:21:32 Ok. I see it now. not sure why I didn't pick up cifs on that fanoush page. Jul 02 02:22:02 I'd like to maybe browse pictures or other files on my Linux fileserver. Why? Jul 02 02:22:36 "Additional modules" for 2.2006.39-14 is probably what you are after (should work with mistral...) Jul 02 02:22:52 oh, linux? Jul 02 02:23:06 does maemo support nfs out of the box? Jul 02 02:23:14 not out of the box Jul 02 02:23:16 Yeah, Linux fileserver. I don't think it speaks NFS. Jul 02 02:23:18 which sux Jul 02 02:23:28 but modules are available for nfs Jul 02 02:23:32 need a special kernel afaik Jul 02 02:23:54 I need to get a pencil style stylus. I think my actual mechanical pencil would probably scratch the screen Jul 02 02:23:59 what do ppl use to stream mp3s to their 770? Jul 02 02:24:02 The following packages have unmet dependencies: nfs-common: Depends: adduser but it is not installable Jul 02 02:24:15 IT2007HE is... a WIP Jul 02 02:24:33 what's WIP? Jul 02 02:24:40 Work in Progress. Jul 02 02:25:00 ah. i just got my 770 today. playing around with it as much as I can Jul 02 02:25:05 should I stick with IT2006? Jul 02 02:25:15 i'd advise that Jul 02 02:25:15 I have an icecast (OGG Vorbis) server on my Linux machine, but I use it to stream realtime audio, not songs. But it can stream songs. Jul 02 02:25:51 xenon, what client for maemo is used with that? Jul 02 02:25:51 mplayer can do ogg streams, dunno what else Jul 02 02:25:51 I was able to listen to my icecast stream with Meamo's OGG Player. But the player doesn't seem to have a way to remember or bookmark a stream from one run to another. :( Jul 02 02:25:53 if I could make a piece of plastic about an inch long and .5 mm around with a small ball on the end (or a styraight pin that thin with a tiny plastic ball on the end) I could load it in my mech. pencil and use it... Jul 02 02:28:24 KaylaKaze: ...uhh... what? Jul 02 02:28:37 Like, a round-ended fake pencil lead. Jul 02 02:29:05 Oh for a more comfortable stylus? Jul 02 02:29:23 I use my office depot plastic mechanical pencil Jul 02 02:29:27 EMachineshop might be able to make you one, if you could find the right materials and process to fab it: Jul 02 02:29:27 It's out of lead and has a plastic tip Jul 02 02:29:30 http://www.emachineshop.com/ Jul 02 02:30:32 I want someone who can manufacture a few hundred replacement aluminum sliding covers, with wings on the side containing a bluetooth gamepad with buttons on each side Jul 02 02:31:20 is there a way I can make mount not need root? Jul 02 02:31:27 pupnik_: yes Jul 02 02:32:08 well, I have a mech pencil I realy like and is very comfortable put it has a metal tip' Jul 02 02:33:14 KaylaKaze - sudo, most likely Jul 02 02:35:09 pupnik: I probably know someone who could do that for you, but it ain't cheap. ;) Jul 02 02:37:10 I just pray that the N900 will have gaming-compatible controls. Jul 02 02:37:43 This "thou shalt not play games" product design should have died with the original IBM PC in 1981 Jul 02 02:38:42 I found a .5mm wire Jul 02 02:38:52 and I'm gonna make a plastic tip with my hot glue gun Jul 02 02:39:15 Mmmm. I bet you could find solder in the right size and melt the tip into a ball. Jul 02 02:40:03 yeah, but I don't want a metal tip, even if smooth. I would be concerned about scratching it... though I do have some pretty smooth solder... Jul 02 02:40:37 Well, hot glue is probably the next best bet. Maybe a small rod in a plastic BB or the like? Jul 02 02:41:13 what PIM app do most ppl use Jul 02 02:41:33 vi Jul 02 02:42:02 Omnix: Palm Treo. ;) Jul 02 02:42:22 You can run Palm software on the Nokias now Jul 02 02:42:35 how's that work Jul 02 02:42:36 pupnik_: is there a .deb for that yet? Jul 02 02:42:45 think aso Jul 02 02:42:45 omnix: it runs POSE Jul 02 02:43:53 https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=240 Jul 02 02:44:18 that's a .deb for Bora afaict Jul 02 02:44:23 can this run palm 5 or only up to palm 4.x? Jul 02 02:44:28 4.5 i think Jul 02 02:44:45 only 68k palms Jul 02 02:52:40 Ok, KaylaKaze, I'm a N770/Maemo noob, having gotten it on Friday from buy.com, but I'm a debian old hand. Spell out for me, using _small_ words, what the minimum I need to mount a smb filesystem from my Linux machine? Jul 02 02:57:07 i'd go with nfs or sshfs just to avoid the BLECH factor... Jul 02 02:57:22 usually i scp -c blowfish stuff back and forth Jul 02 02:58:18 Well, yeah, but I have a working SMB system, so I don't want to screw with it otherwise, if I can get smbfs or cifs to work. Is nfs faster on N770 or something? Jul 02 02:59:05 no idea, last i checked you needed to install a kernel with nfs compiled-in Jul 02 02:59:23 So, about the same difficulty level as getting smbfs to work. ;) Jul 02 02:59:56 Yeah, but that root filesystem fills fast **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Jul 02 02:59:56 2007
