**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Aug 31 02:59:56 2007 Aug 31 04:54:06 should the "subsribe to changes" thing work in the maemo.org wiki? Aug 31 05:19:38 * pupnik points Aug 31 06:37:23 * pupnik wants to port a general midi player to the dsp Aug 31 07:34:26 Morning, all Aug 31 07:34:49 "Life end when you die. But imagination share with others, live forever." - Quan, Final Fantasy IX Aug 31 07:34:52 morning Aug 31 07:34:53 <_Monkey> aloha Aug 31 07:35:54 * Jaffa is at No Fluff, Just Stuff in London. Loads of MacBooks, no other N800s :-(o Aug 31 07:36:21 Neat :) For work or play? Aug 31 07:38:26 Work :-) Aug 31 07:39:05 Lots of people talking about Groovy/Grails, which is very cool. Not sure we'll be able to use it at work though, we've only just convinced them to switch everything to the Java platform. Aug 31 07:40:26 Yesterday my N800 was connected to the free wi-fi all day, with an IM and SSH session open (omostly in soft power-off, admittedly) and the battery was still on 4 bars when I got home. Aug 31 07:40:43 Of course, it'd've probably dropped to 0 very quickly when it did start moving. Aug 31 07:41:39 yeah the power saving is fantastic - i did irc/surfing for many hours on lowest brightness (7+) Aug 31 07:41:45 770 Aug 31 07:52:18 whenever i see Jaffa i think of Ween - Joppa Road - http://www.mp3lyrics.org/w/ween/joppa-road/ Aug 31 07:53:51 * Jaffa 's not heard that one before. Aug 31 07:57:30 ween was two guys who recorded stuff on a 4-track tape around 1991 and got signed by Sony - who released their 4-track stuff on CD Aug 31 07:57:47 strange stuff Aug 31 07:58:51 Is lardman correct that the mic-in / AD converter is only 8-bit? would be nice if the headphone jack could be used for a better microphone input as well Aug 31 08:15:27 pupnik: don't forget to sort ls output Aug 31 08:16:29 note: you can usually do: sort|uniq -c|sort Aug 31 08:16:44 or something like that Aug 31 08:17:07 actually sort|uniq -u is what you want Aug 31 08:20:28 he was trying to compare two directories to see if a theme had missing files - for that sort -u would have been -useless Aug 31 08:33:41 good morning Aug 31 08:36:48 hi AD-N770! Do you want to build a SoundBlaster emulator to run on the DSP? Aug 31 08:38:06 is anyone here working on getting vorbis decoding working through the DSP? Aug 31 08:38:06 pupnik: currently I'm very busy at work and at home, it's really hard find time for personal projects Aug 31 08:38:10 on the 770? Aug 31 08:38:11 <_Monkey> i guess on the 770 is jerky Aug 31 08:38:30 hehe i understand. Sorry to be annoying - it would be fun and cool for dosbox though Aug 31 08:38:54 SB on DSP + dynamic recompilation of X86-ARM could really speed up dosbox Aug 31 08:39:08 good news at my home, we are waiting for a baby Aug 31 08:39:18 congratulations! :) Aug 31 08:39:26 _monkey forget on the 770 Aug 31 08:39:26 <_Monkey> timeless: I forgot on the 770 Aug 31 08:39:38 _monkey on the 770 is Aug 31 08:39:38 <_Monkey> OK, timeless. Aug 31 08:39:53 that means a lot of changes in my family life :) Aug 31 08:40:06 and IRC life Aug 31 08:40:22 * pupnik removes his hat Aug 31 08:40:31 yes all computer related lifes will be affected too :) Aug 31 08:58:07 good morning Aug 31 09:10:05 bon matin Aug 31 09:22:05 can you lookup your n800 device by hostname ??? Aug 31 09:22:16 on a lan network when ip is gotten from dhcp ? Aug 31 09:22:46 just add the n800 address to /etc/hosts or the hosts file on windows Aug 31 09:23:32 for example echo "192.168.0.3 nokia" >> /etc/hosts Aug 31 09:23:35 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.maemo.devel/10436/focus=10490 Aug 31 09:23:41 i onced asked on the mailing list Aug 31 09:23:52 setting the bluetooth name used to work Aug 31 09:23:59 but it's not working anymore since the last os update Aug 31 09:25:00 guardian: some dhcp clients can send name updates to the dns server but dns server in your network should support that. Aug 31 09:26:09 it does since it used to work :) Aug 31 09:26:31 in fact the n800 is the only computer on the lan that has no hostname associated with the ip in the dhcp Aug 31 09:26:51 i wonder what year they added that to dhcp Aug 31 09:28:21 <`0660> it sounds pretty insecure :) Aug 31 09:28:47 <`0660> anyone could pretend to be a certain device Aug 31 09:29:13 pupnuk: rfc 2136 might be the answer .. Aug 31 09:29:18 insecure ? Aug 31 09:29:23 i just want convenience Aug 31 09:29:27 on a private lan Aug 31 09:29:42 ah yes.. the age of innocence.. when they're old enough not to know any better, being insecure is part of the growing process.. Aug 31 09:30:07 or not. Aug 31 09:30:58 what's wrong with publishing the hostname to dhcp ? Aug 31 09:31:16 actually, i think it might be the dhcp server which does the update to dns .. Aug 31 09:31:19 and not the client .. Aug 31 09:31:47 hmm 1997... Aug 31 09:32:02 guardian: can you check your leases file, does it contain any name for n800 lease ? Aug 31 09:32:06 well if the up script does not call udpchp with the -H option no hostname is passed so the dhcp does not forward that to dns Aug 31 09:32:22 yep Aug 31 09:32:29 jani: there is a blank entry for the n800 device Aug 31 09:32:35 for the corresponding ip Aug 31 09:32:54 i'm reading again /etc/udhcpc scripts Aug 31 09:41:05 bonjour Aug 31 09:41:06 <_Monkey> niihau, lardman Aug 31 09:41:50 i dunno man, for a home network, /etc/hosts works reel guud. Aug 31 09:41:53 I'm going to have to perform endianness swapping for pretty much all the data I'm using - i.e. buffer pointers, etc. Aug 31 09:42:38 I wonder if there's some way around it... I can't think of one though Aug 31 09:43:44 did you discover that reading the documentation or looking at existing code lardman? Aug 31 09:44:18 I had thought my wonderful circular buffer code was complete, and then it dawned on me that the DSP and ARM use different endiannesses Aug 31 09:44:45 heh :/ Aug 31 09:44:50 It's in the DSP docs, definitely bigendian Aug 31 09:46:09 lardman: I cleaned up a bit the maemo.org wiki on dspprogramming.. Aug 31 09:46:24 what would be the script that calls udhcpc the first time ? Aug 31 09:46:26 kulve: Great Aug 31 09:46:39 I was thinking that we should add a section on debugging Aug 31 09:47:37 yeah Aug 31 09:57:55 hi all Aug 31 09:59:14 where I can find the maemo_af_desktop debug messages on tablet? my applet freezes only on tablet... Aug 31 10:00:31 how do you get errors on the desktop (sb)? Aug 31 10:01:32 after af-sb-init.sh start it logs on the same shell Aug 31 10:01:56 maybe you can look where maemo_af_desktop gets started (in /etc/init.d ?) and ad add a > /home/user/tmp.txt or 2> ... to the invocation? Aug 31 10:02:13 tnx Aug 31 10:02:50 * Jaffa belatedly congrats AD-770 Aug 31 10:11:17 latzko: did you check /dev/xconsole ? Aug 31 10:12:03 no actually Aug 31 10:14:09 so just cat /dev/xconsole .. it keeps some history too so you might be able to see it even thou errors have allready happened. Aug 31 10:18:46 jani, no such file here Aug 31 10:19:33 ok, maybe its r&d feature. Aug 31 10:20:07 I see Aug 31 10:20:13 thanks Aug 31 10:30:19 i googled but find nothing about installing xconsole on n800 Aug 31 10:32:01 what i meant, xconsole might be a feature that we have in our internal releases. Aug 31 10:32:28 I c Aug 31 10:34:26 should I safely run ./flasher-2.0 --enable-rd-mode ? Aug 31 10:35:25 or is it not enough? Aug 31 10:35:44 Vorbis people, is the vf struct a mix of vorbis and ogg or just ogg? I'd like to separate out the ogg reading so I can send individual packets Aug 31 10:36:02 latzko: That should switch to r&d mode, yes Aug 31 10:38:51 hmm, I suppose it has to be a mix as otherwise there's no way of knowing the packet size... Aug 31 10:40:43 ogg_stream_packetout, just what I'm after Aug 31 10:47:47 lardman: look at arm6 assembly instructions: REV, REV16 and REVSH to deal on endianess at ARM side Aug 31 10:49:44 AD-N770: Thanks, will give them a look Aug 31 10:55:11 why do so many users join #maemo but never chat? Aug 31 10:55:29 because nobody could read that flood ;) Aug 31 10:56:30 hmm. there's no need to log it Aug 31 11:01:40 it's the little gems of wisdom that the logging is good for Aug 31 11:08:38 it's so annoying how long it takes looking at some code to become famililar with it Aug 31 11:08:55 well, I am in r&d mode now but there is no /dev/xconsole either Aug 31 11:10:36 "xconsole might be a feature that we have in our internal releases. " <- emphasis on "in our internal release" =) Aug 31 11:10:42 sorry if i mislead you. Aug 31 11:10:57 ok, np, tnx Aug 31 11:11:05 you need to run the xconsole binary according to google Aug 31 11:13:58 I cant find it. sorry for disturbing you but now I have minimal time to fix my stuff Aug 31 11:15:12 I'd try pupnik's suggestion then Aug 31 11:16:30 is there any other way to find out why my home applet crash? it works perfectly in sbox, x86 target Aug 31 11:16:47 there's also a redirect for stdout+stderr but i keep forgetting it - something like 1&2> out.txt Aug 31 11:17:04 &> iirc Aug 31 11:18:34 you're right! Aug 31 11:18:40 http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO-3.html Aug 31 11:19:53 btw #bash on freenode is a good place to get "bashed" for asking silly rtfm questions about bash :) Aug 31 11:26:40 hi, I m newbie , if anybody have time please tell me how can i install glibc 2.4 in scratchbox Aug 31 11:30:32 test__: why do you want to do that? Aug 31 11:31:07 i installed libjpeg to compress image size Aug 31 11:31:59 but when i go to use djpeg then it show me GLIBc 2.4 not found error for that Aug 31 11:32:46 well, I know how to redirect but dunno what :) redirecitng af-startup does not gave me much info Aug 31 11:32:55 test__: You installed it from the wrong place then Aug 31 11:33:32 test__: My N800 running the latest flash image is using libc 2.3.6 Aug 31 11:34:00 test__: surely libjpeg comes pre-installed? Aug 31 11:34:35 no Aug 31 11:35:30 [sbox-SDK_ARMEL: ~] > ls /usr/lib/*jpeg* Aug 31 11:35:33 /usr/lib/libjpeg.a /usr/lib/libjpeg.la /usr/lib/libjpeg.so /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62.0.0 Aug 31 11:35:49 ya i got this prob Aug 31 11:36:40 actually i m newbie please help me Aug 31 11:37:00 What do you want? libjpeg should already be installed Aug 31 11:37:10 what do you want to do with libjpeg? Aug 31 11:38:12 i want to convert a jpeg image to ppm format in target Aug 31 11:39:15 your host system can also read/write to/from directories within scratchbox Aug 31 11:40:25 ya Aug 31 11:41:01 so you could use the pnm/pbm tools from the host OS Aug 31 11:41:50 or-- cjpeg rather Aug 31 11:42:12 or grab this tarball http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz, run configure, then (probably) make cjpeg Aug 31 11:42:15 well, I know how but I dont know what to redirect. rtfm is good if there is a fucking manual about that.... Aug 31 11:43:02 latzko: Was there no output? Aug 31 11:43:43 latzko: I guess you've removed any &>/dev/null statements in that script too? Aug 31 11:43:44 http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz not found Aug 31 11:43:57 latzko: are you sure you're not trying to cut-down a tree blocking your way instead of walking around it? Aug 31 11:43:58 minimal , script echo output like starting things and like that Aug 31 11:44:17 http://ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz Aug 31 11:44:22 my apologies Aug 31 11:45:04 no need to be apologies Aug 31 11:45:05 latzko: I fear your question is more one for the Nokia chaps as they know what actually tries to start the applets and where any output would go Aug 31 11:45:24 s/latzko/test__/ Aug 31 11:45:24 pupnik meant: test__: are you sure you're not trying to cut-down a tree blocking your way instead of walking around it? Aug 31 11:45:45 I see Aug 31 11:46:38 no, i don't think so. realy i need help Aug 31 11:46:52 test__: if i need to convert a wav to mp3, i don't do it in scratchbox Aug 31 11:49:04 test__: Download and use this: http://people.bath.ac.uk/enpsgp/nokia770/cjpeg Aug 31 11:49:15 nice Aug 31 11:49:19 test__: It took me a total of 30s to download and compile and upload Aug 31 11:49:54 i have that one Aug 31 11:50:06 also Djpeg Aug 31 11:50:36 yeah, but this one is linked against the right version of glibc Aug 31 11:50:44 ya Aug 31 11:50:55 this is my main prob Aug 31 11:51:08 download the one I just gave the url for and try it Aug 31 11:51:11 test__: follow lardman's instructions :) Aug 31 11:51:28 ya i m following him Aug 31 11:52:38 does it work?

Aug 31 11:55:30 The file I compiled will only run on ARMEL Aug 31 11:55:56 What target are you trying to use? Aug 31 11:57:32 this situation is a waste of your talents :) Aug 31 11:57:45 * pupnik ducks Aug 31 11:58:29 I like the feeling of satisfaction when a problem is solved :) Aug 31 12:00:15 test__: Does it work? Aug 31 12:04:14 * anderson_s is away reason: simple away Aug 31 12:05:12 i made a deb but after installing it was not showing in the menu of the scratchbox Aug 31 12:06:50 ~lart whoever indented vorbisfile.c Aug 31 12:06:50 * infobot puts on some milking gloves.

Aug 31 12:45:58 no i got "/scratchbox/tools/bin/misc_runner: SBOX_CPUTRANSPARENCY_METHOD not set" Aug 31 12:46:08 this prob with this version Aug 31 12:46:19 well that's not the fault of the binary, it's your scratchbox setup Aug 31 12:46:36 of course my fault Aug 31 12:46:36 are you trying to run in ARMEL or x86 mode? Aug 31 12:47:02 the 386 cjpeg was copied in from a more modern linux host, and he's trying to run the armel cjpeg in a 386 target Aug 31 12:47:15 ah Aug 31 12:47:25 actually i install cJpeg in target-86 Aug 31 12:47:31 installed Aug 31 12:47:35 why do you want cjpeg for a 386 target? Aug 31 12:48:39 here all of our team member usually work at [sbox-SDK_X86: ~] > Aug 31 12:48:44 and me also Aug 31 12:49:18 and i need djpeg also Aug 31 12:50:04 did you install libjpeg or just grab the cjpeg/djpeg binaries? Aug 31 12:50:25 because you'll need to uninstall them as they are linked against the wrong version of libc Aug 31 12:50:31 then download the tarball Aug 31 12:50:44 cd into the directory that's created when you uncompress it Aug 31 12:51:00 run: ./configure && make cjpeg && make djpeg Aug 31 12:51:15 and copy the cjpeg and djpeg binaries somewhere like /usr/bin Aug 31 12:51:59 in time of inatallation i wrote /scratchbox/...../terget 86 in configuration file Aug 31 12:52:31 and the ./configure---make Aug 31 12:53:42 I don't understand. You've already built c/djpeg then? Aug 31 12:54:26 ac_default_prefix=/scratchbox/users/opy/targets/SDK_X86 Aug 31 12:54:47 then!!!! Aug 31 12:54:47 <_Monkey> then is not free software, it is not GNU/linux embedded, i refuse to use a phone that has not GNU/linux Aug 31 12:55:03 I'd ignore that completely, just run configure without arguments Aug 31 12:55:25 oh dear, you're not trying to compile outside of scratchbox are you?

Aug 31 12:56:52 ya Aug 31 12:56:56 but you compiled it outside of scratchbox didn't you? Aug 31 12:57:35 you'd not started scratchbox (/scratchbox/login) and were not running it when you compiled Aug 31 12:57:42 ? Aug 31 12:58:03 no Aug 31 12:58:18 scratchbox was not logged in Aug 31 12:58:29 go to the code you used to compile it originally, run "make uninstall" to remove whatever it tried to install Aug 31 12:58:41 ok Aug 31 12:58:58 then login to scratchbox, download the code again and run configure (no argumnets) and make djpeg, etc. Aug 31 12:59:43 I don;t know if you'll have overwritten the scratchbox version of libjpeg, hopefully not, but you may need to reinstall it (dpkg-install ? anyone?)

Aug 31 13:34:53 or anyone else with knowledge of vorbis internals? Aug 31 13:35:05 lardman: Yes. Aug 31 13:35:42 can I pick your brain please? Aug 31 13:36:14 vf->ready_state to be exact, and whether there's some documentation on the meanings of the various values somewhere? Aug 31 13:37:43 I'm guessing that INITSET is the last step, i.e. everything is setup, but am wondering what the difference is between that and STREAMSET? Aug 31 13:37:53 and OPENED for that matter Aug 31 13:43:22 STREAMSET means it has initialized the comment and info structures (and thus needs to clear them at some point). Aug 31 13:43:48 okay Aug 31 13:44:06 LINKSET means it's done that for the current link in a chained file. Aug 31 13:44:42 (if you're STREAMSET, but not LINKSET, then you need to clear the existing header info, find the headers for the current link, and then initialize those) Aug 31 13:44:58 okay Aug 31 13:45:08 and INITSET vs OPENED? Aug 31 13:45:25 And then INITSET is LINKSET plus it has initialized a decoder. Aug 31 13:46:12 to go from OPENED to INITSET it needs to read in the header from the looks of it Aug 31 13:46:40 * CardinalFang is thrilled to see "maemo" and "Vorbis" on the same screen. "Please say whatever you're making is for the 770. Ohpleaseohplease." Aug 31 13:46:46 Or perhaps that's the other way, it falls back to OPENED Aug 31 13:46:57 CardinalFang: N800 in the first instance Aug 31 13:47:07 Dang. Aug 31 13:47:28 CardinalFang: But the code is generic, just that I could never get the DSP to behave on the 770 Aug 31 13:48:07 That's where the action is, for a nicely-behaving decoder, yes? The DSP? Aug 31 13:48:29 It's a little project of mine Aug 31 13:48:57 derf: The header is 3 pages long. Is that always the case? Aug 31 13:49:08 * lardman wades through vorbisfile.c Aug 31 13:49:39 ah 3 packets long Aug 31 13:56:43 lardman: Anyway, in general, the only documentation of the code is the source. Aug 31 13:57:10 We always tell people, "Feel free to write some, we'll accept patches," but no one ever does. Aug 31 13:58:35 That's fair enough, I was just after a pointer Aug 31 13:58:42 and you've given me one Aug 31 13:59:22 I'm trying to work out how to separate out the ogg page -> packet decoding to the ARM side, so I can send single packets to the DSP side for decoding Aug 31 13:59:52 it's not helped by the multitude of places where new packets are read from Aug 31 14:09:38 anyone know anything about the webkit browser for the n800? Aug 31 14:10:49 no, but i'm mildly intrested Aug 31 14:11:03 anyone knows if we could have a STABLE browser on 770 one day :) ? Aug 31 14:11:23 dunno, the default is quite stable compared to webkit on s60 Aug 31 14:11:24 :) Aug 31 14:12:31 opera on my N73 doesn't crash so often ;) Aug 31 14:12:42 or better... never crashed to me Aug 31 14:17:25 yeah s60 opera has become quite good Aug 31 14:17:29 and opera mini too.. Aug 31 14:17:45 much more better in the memory management side Aug 31 14:28:59 do they have the same funcitonality as microb? Aug 31 14:32:10 lardman: did you notice that some body asked about "DSP/ARM shared memory test on N800" on dsp gw list Aug 31 14:32:31 microb is even more unstable than opera :( Aug 31 14:32:31 No, I've not been following it lately Aug 31 14:32:34 (at least for me) Aug 31 14:32:41 kulve: I'll take a look now Aug 31 14:33:30 odd the mailing list is so hard to find from the dsp gateway page Aug 31 14:34:41 ry? Aug 31 14:34:44 andy? Aug 31 14:34:51 do you have specific pages that crash the browser? Aug 31 14:35:00 and if you disable flash, do you still have pages that crash the browser? Aug 31 14:35:03 :) I didn't notice there was an existing shared memory test, oops, might have saved myself some work :D Aug 31 14:35:58 I'm surprised his code compiled, EXRAM doesn't exist iirc Aug 31 14:36:26 ah, he's tried to create it, he should have used one of the pre-defined sections Aug 31 14:37:35 lardman: I wrote some notes down about my experiments: http://tuomas.kulve.fi/blog/2007/08/31/speex-encoder-on-n800s-dsp/ Aug 31 14:38:25 kulve: Cool, I'll have a read of it in a bit Aug 31 14:42:14 lardman: it's quite high level.. I'll need to write some details to the wiki Aug 31 14:58:45 kulve: I read a bit the C55 DSP manuals yesterday Aug 31 14:59:27 AD-N770: See anything exciting? Aug 31 15:00:03 kulve: That chap who emailed to the dspgateway list was using the maemo wiki page, I wonder why he didn't email the list. Very odd. Aug 31 15:00:43 kulve: about what you asked me for the math functions, I think that probably you will get better results on speed with a rewrite of some higher level functions Aug 31 15:01:06 than just the simple math ones Aug 31 15:03:48 In vorbisfile.c, in the _fetch_and_process_packet() fn, can anyone see why the second while(1) loop is there? Aug 31 15:04:11 afaict, it can never loop through more than once Aug 31 15:29:59 kulve: ping Aug 31 15:32:42 AD-N770: he is a finn, must be out somewhere buzzing at this hour :) Aug 31 15:33:23 zeenix: ok, thanks Aug 31 15:46:54 derf: The stream is very closely linked to the other parts of the overall vorbis engine Aug 31 15:47:18 rather confusing trying to see if the packets (and therefore stream) could be broken away and left on the ARM Aug 31 15:47:29 I have a feeling I'm on a hiding to nowhere here though Aug 31 15:47:39 after feeling optimistic this morning Aug 31 15:49:23 The options are to make the break higher up (i.e. all on the DSP, for which I've already written the code, just need to fiddle with the malloc, etc. routines) Aug 31 15:49:42 Or lower down, just the dsp functions. That seems to me to be a cleaner way of doing things Aug 31 15:55:13 * lardman fears his brain may explode Aug 31 16:14:12 lardman: what you use to compile the dsp code ? Aug 31 16:15:49 AD-N770: The 'free' Ti DSP toolchain Aug 31 16:16:08 AD-N770: Take a look at the DSP Programming topic on the maemo wiki Aug 31 16:16:15 lardman: can it generate into assembly ? Aug 31 16:16:36 AD-N770: C->ASM? Aug 31 16:16:41 yes Aug 31 16:16:46 AD-N770: Yes, I think so Aug 31 16:16:57 certainly it can diassemble Aug 31 16:17:22 is it gcc derived ? Aug 31 16:17:34 no idea Aug 31 16:18:02 do you know if it supports inline assembly ? Aug 31 16:18:55 That I don't know, but there's a pdf on the Ti website about the assembler Aug 31 16:19:02 compiler even Aug 31 16:19:11 let me dig out the number for you... Aug 31 16:19:34 I think that spru376/example 3-19 is usefull for speex Aug 31 16:20:00 http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/psheets/man_dsp.htm Aug 31 16:20:14 search for c55 Aug 31 16:20:17 lots of things there Aug 31 16:20:49 spru281f.pdf is the one I was thinking of Aug 31 16:22:19 AD-N770: I don't know what operations speex requires, though FIR filter is presumably among them Aug 31 16:22:55 AD-N770: I also don't know how good the C compiler is at optimisation Aug 31 16:23:41 what I'm thinking is that probably the C code don't generate the 2 mac paralelized Aug 31 16:24:07 No idea, but one would assume it would do some things right Aug 31 16:24:16 so just take this code into an function in C using inline assembly would be usefull Aug 31 16:24:30 yes Aug 31 16:24:57 there were also some tips (in the link I posted yesterday) to make the C compiler generate better (more optimised code) Aug 31 16:24:58 i've been reading in the speex code, the sse optimization for FIR is done in a similar way Aug 31 16:26:14 I only need to find which is the syntax used by the c compiler for inline assembly and passing data to it Aug 31 16:26:55 or could be that will be easier write it in one external module Aug 31 16:27:20 I will try to install the stuff at home this weekend and play a bit with it Aug 31 16:30:04 section 6.5.3 of the compiler guide Aug 31 16:34:21 AD-N770: Looks like Intel syntax which is handy Aug 31 16:36:38 have a nice weekend all Aug 31 17:38:44 buenos dias Aug 31 17:51:18 hi guys Aug 31 17:51:57 i just saw a report on tv about people throwing around nokia rainboots Aug 31 17:52:10 finland won ;) Aug 31 17:52:52 it seems to me that finnish people don't like nokia :> Aug 31 17:53:17 after all, there is also a mobile-throwing-competition Aug 31 18:03:52 anyone here use GPE Calendar on the N800? Aug 31 18:03:59 anybody wanna guess what happened to my skype bugreport sent to skype.com? Aug 31 18:04:59 maemo.org report -> /dev/null Aug 31 18:05:18 nokia.com report -> told me to send it to skype.com Aug 31 18:05:26 skype.com report -> told me to send it to nokia.com Aug 31 18:11:46 just automate that and I'm sure someone will get sufficiently pissed off :) Aug 31 18:15:00 I need a way to backup GPE Calendar's calendar file before I use Erminig, on my N800, however the /user/.gpe/ directory isn't visible to me. Anyone have any ideas? Aug 31 18:17:22 tko: :) but this is actually not at all surprising state of affairs, although that's no excuse.

Aug 31 19:50:56 <||cw> pbryan: ubuntu is not (yet) targeting nokia devices Aug 31 19:51:10 ||cw: Yeah, so far just the Intel platform. Aug 31 19:51:17 <||cw> their only target so far is Intel's MID platform Aug 31 19:51:19 * pbryan wonders if it will be easy to port to ARM. Aug 31 19:51:30 I guess we'll see when it releases. Aug 31 19:51:46 If so, won't that be interesting critical mass? Aug 31 19:52:59 <||cw> since ubuntu doesn't officialy support arm it could be difficult Aug 31 19:53:27 ||cw: Well, there's a branch of Debian (armeb) which is not officially supported by Debian either, but seems to have a strong following.

Aug 31 21:12:29 ive been thinking of getting a used 770, can anyone answer a few questions? Aug 31 21:14:16 yes Aug 31 21:14:32 probably 6+ billion Aug 31 21:14:48 excellent :) Aug 31 21:14:53 first of all Aug 31 21:15:00 how is it speed wise? Aug 31 21:15:42 about as fast as a pentium 2 Aug 31 21:16:02 or an intel xscale 400mhz Aug 31 21:16:16 in usage terms for instance, how is the speed/usability of the web browser compared to the one in the recent S60 phones. Aug 31 21:16:54 the browser is plenty fast, just some websites are terrible Aug 31 21:17:13 aha Aug 31 21:17:20 what about applications? Aug 31 21:17:45 you can run applications on it Aug 31 21:17:48 i mean Aug 31 21:18:13 is there a large variety? is there an office suite compatible with MS Office documents? (at least for viewing) Aug 31 21:19:11 well on that account 1) ms office documents are a poorly defined standard, with built-in incompatibilities and flaws Aug 31 21:19:25 but there is a word processor and a .doc viewer Aug 31 21:19:35 in responce to 1) i am very well aware of that, unfortunately its a necessary evil Aug 31 21:19:59 cant get every professor @ my uni + every co-student switch to Open Office :P Aug 31 21:20:15 it's called abiword and very nice. open office is too big to run on the 770 Aug 31 21:20:30 but abiword still has a few crash bugs Aug 31 21:20:34 well i dont really care about editing, i just want to be able to VIEW files Aug 31 21:20:43 for that i think people use evince Aug 31 21:21:00 What about the email client? has it improved? i read in some reviews that it had some usability issues. Aug 31 21:21:27 there is a port of claws mail - the standard email client is a bit like 'wordpad' in lack of features Aug 31 21:21:48 Just use webmail. Aug 31 21:21:53 * celesteh takes notes Aug 31 21:22:12 i use a gmail a lot, but also i gota have access to my uni's email Aug 31 21:22:18 i use webmail, but i can understand people wanting to connect to a hotspot, download their mails and process them while not online Aug 31 21:22:23 yup Aug 31 21:22:27 that too Aug 31 21:22:50 i also have a nokia e61 smartphone, i'd suppose the two would work well together? (D.U.N over BT for instance for when i am not in range of a hotspot) Aug 31 21:23:13 anyway searching claws mail threads on internettablettalk.com should return usability reports Aug 31 21:23:26 hm... Aug 31 21:23:28 another thing Aug 31 21:23:42 i think dun over bt works with most phones - no experience with it Aug 31 21:23:42 does the tablet have a microphone + spearker arranged in such a way that it is skype-friendly? Aug 31 21:23:56 * celesteh looks for the reop with clawsmail and abiword Aug 31 21:24:17 i've done some feedback tests (it's funny, there's a one-liner in the shell that lets you set up a feedback loop) Aug 31 21:24:34 and i can get to about 3/5 volume before feedback gain becomes > 1 Aug 31 21:24:49 i just checked a compatiblity list and it seems that it cooperates with N-series phones so it would probably work with the E-Series as well Aug 31 21:24:52 sorry 2/5 Aug 31 21:24:55 i didnt quite get those last 2 sentences :p Aug 31 21:25:12 it has a mic and speaker, the mic hears the speaker Aug 31 21:25:25 aaah Aug 31 21:25:42 does the headphone slot support phone-headsets? Aug 31 21:25:50 (single ear-thingie + mic) Aug 31 21:26:03 from what i've heard yes, but this isn't confirmed - maybe someone else knows for sure Aug 31 21:26:16 hm... Aug 31 21:26:20 oh Aug 31 21:26:22 another one Aug 31 21:26:25 what about PIM apps? Aug 31 21:29:50 hmm just found a headset here but it is the 2-plug variety Aug 31 21:30:28 PIM diehards say the bundled apps fail Aug 31 21:31:02 you can get a calendar, contacts etc in 3rd party apps Aug 31 21:31:08 but there's a port of GPE, which is supposedly better Aug 31 21:31:15 i use that Aug 31 21:31:25 and i can sync my calendar to google, which is cool Aug 31 21:31:28 I really like GPE, compared to everything else I've tried Aug 31 21:31:37 although I'm on the N800 not the E61 Aug 31 21:33:09 i really need to update the 770 PalmOS emulator someday Aug 31 21:34:46 hm... Aug 31 21:35:01 is any of the supported calendar apps sync-able to outlook? Aug 31 21:35:35 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-1180.html this thread deals with that Aug 31 21:35:47 cheers ;) Aug 31 21:36:24 have you found a place that still sells new 770s shodanjr_gr ? Aug 31 21:37:00 nope Aug 31 21:37:05 im scouting on ebay Aug 31 21:37:07 for a used one Aug 31 21:37:20 on www.nokia770.com i saw a couple of links to eshops Aug 31 21:37:24 with N770s on sale Aug 31 21:37:28 you could check it out Aug 31 21:38:03 i was just wondering - i bought mine last november Aug 31 21:38:16 Nokia never released the damn thing here in Greece Aug 31 21:38:20 goes with me everyehwere Aug 31 21:38:23 and they just NOW released the N800 Aug 31 21:38:36 which is too expensive for my CS student allowance :p Aug 31 21:38:40 oh Aug 31 21:38:41 another question Aug 31 21:38:41 alas Aug 31 21:38:42 girls think it's cute Aug 31 21:38:48 hehehe Aug 31 21:38:54 gadgets are converstation starters Aug 31 21:39:03 total chick magnet Aug 31 21:39:04 i get that with my smartphone all the time Aug 31 21:39:19 [22:36] is any of the supported calendar apps sync-able to outlook? <- Ermining allows GPE Calendar to sync to Google Calendar and you can sync Google Calendar to Outlook separately Aug 31 21:39:27 most people ask questions when they see the 800x480 display Aug 31 21:39:32 i have to carry a stick with me to beat them away when i'm trying to walk around with my n800 Aug 31 21:39:33 aaah cheers WhisperingVoices Aug 31 21:39:36 yea the display is sexy as hell Aug 31 21:39:37 :p Aug 31 21:39:40 yup Aug 31 21:39:50 but Shodan I don't know if Ermining will work on the E61 Aug 31 21:40:00 i just want something to surf the net on so that i dont have to lug my ultraportable to school every day Aug 31 21:40:28 btw does the n770 support WPA-Enterprise wireless security? does it support certificate importing? Aug 31 21:40:29 with a bluetooth keyboard it would be an excellent lecture note-taking + sketch device Aug 31 21:40:44 i dont take notes :p i just pay attention Aug 31 21:41:14 I find mine is decent for sketching ... no bluetooth keyboards I've found yet though Aug 31 21:41:26 how's the handwritting recognition? Aug 31 21:41:28 i find the finger keyboard thing to be pretty good for note taking, actually Aug 31 21:41:35 back when i had a palm i was pretty fast with graffiti Aug 31 21:41:43 I don't know about Enterprise security, mine is running WPA-PSK Aug 31 21:41:56 get a Nokia 770 and help test the palm emulator please Aug 31 21:42:23 I can't get used to the finger keyboard, I guess I should practice more Aug 31 21:42:28 if and when i get it, ill be spending some time here :p Aug 31 21:43:00 anyone here have experience with running skype on the 770? Aug 31 21:43:27 No but then I haven't found out how to operate my webcam yet Aug 31 21:43:38 I know you'll need to patch the OS to get Skype Aug 31 21:43:43 im talking about the 770, i dont think that has a webcam :p Aug 31 21:44:07 I was illustrating my lack of connectivity :P Aug 31 21:44:14 hahahah :p Aug 31 21:44:25 it'd be pretty handy if skype where usable Aug 31 21:44:31 i hate handwriting recorgnition. bluetooth keyboards are kind of hard to find in the netherlands Aug 31 21:44:46 id love free phonecalls and i cant get my E61 to connect to my Uni's Wifi net Aug 31 21:44:48 i mean, tiny portable ones. there's one shop that sells them and they're always sold out Aug 31 21:45:15 did you check on ebay? Aug 31 21:45:34 want to try before i buy Aug 31 21:45:41 I think Skype is usable on the n770 Aug 31 21:45:54 but it has lots of features disabled like file sharing and so on Aug 31 21:46:05 ah kk celesteh Aug 31 21:46:11 id just check reviews and buy on ebay though Aug 31 21:46:50 * celesteh checking out claws mail Aug 31 21:46:59 btw Aug 31 21:47:03 ooh, this is fancy. it has a wizard and everything Aug 31 21:47:12 what's up with the Hacker edition of 2007 for the 770? Aug 31 21:47:14 is it usable? Aug 31 21:47:56 * shodanjr_gr wishes the n880 werent so expensive Aug 31 21:48:05 there's an n880!? Aug 31 21:48:19 eeer Aug 31 21:48:23 sleight of finger Aug 31 21:48:25 N800 :p Aug 31 21:48:56 Well I know there are some articles on how to set up your 800 for packetsniffing and other hijinks, abusing its wireless and assorted Linux stuff - for which you need to flash your OS to get root access Aug 31 21:49:37 the hacker version could be a root-enabled version Aug 31 21:50:36 shodanjr_gr: it is usable and offers some improvements, but it is a hackers playtool - for normal use 2006 is better Aug 31 21:51:48 aha Aug 31 21:52:42 and on top of it all, i STILL havent recieved my Call of Duty 4 beta acceptance email :p Aug 31 21:53:28 with respect to games, there is one danger Aug 31 21:53:49 once you get a 770 and set-up scratchbox, you might find that porting your favorite apps/games is more fun than playing them Aug 31 21:54:04 what's Scratchbox? Aug 31 21:54:04 <_Monkey> Scratchbox is like the glue that ties it all together Aug 31 21:54:24 gonna fix that Aug 31 21:54:45 Say you're a complete novice to Linux and software and everything, but there is an application you really want to port and you don't mind doing the work and learning Aug 31 21:54:48 Where would you start? Aug 31 21:54:52 * celesteh curses Aug 31 21:55:04 I *really* want Kdissert for the n800, or Brainstorm Aug 31 21:55:38 yarg, i told claws mail to use my primary gmail account and it's trying to download 1k messages. oops Aug 31 21:55:48 hahhaha Aug 31 21:55:49 have fun :p Aug 31 21:56:14 or not Aug 31 21:56:25 keep a fire extuinguisher handy incase it catches fire Aug 31 21:56:37 WhisperingVoices: follow the maemo sbox guide, make a tiny little test program, package it up and run it on the device. after you're sure you got that, start playing with the app that you want to port. Aug 31 21:57:15 if i knew how to program on anything BUT java, id try porting some stuff over :p Aug 31 21:57:24 * celesteh powercycles Aug 31 21:57:26 WhisperingVoices: do not use scratchbox.org documentation, it will confuse you. Aug 31 21:57:41 btw will Asus EVER release that EEE pc? Aug 31 21:57:51 alas, java is unsupported so far, but python isn't too hard to pick up Aug 31 21:58:00 hmm Aug 31 21:58:12 it seems odd that Java is unsupported Aug 31 21:58:18 also, it is wise to learn more than one language when you're a cs student :) Aug 31 21:58:44 it's annoying, as i have a bunch of java apps i'd like to run. i think javasoft is working on a port right now Aug 31 21:59:51 none of you guys have heard of the EEE? Aug 31 22:00:03 I'm not a CS student Aug 31 22:00:07 :/ Aug 31 22:00:10 :p Aug 31 22:00:10 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asus_Eee Aug 31 22:01:19 eee looks nice Aug 31 22:01:26 I hope I have a better paying job when it comes out Aug 31 22:01:38 its pretty cheap and its got good specs Aug 31 22:01:48 electrical engineers and math and physics seem to be more useful for embedded sw development than plain cs. Aug 31 22:01:48 lots of good things can happen with a 900mhz CPU and 512 megs of ram Aug 31 22:03:34 i wish they had given a touchscreen to the PSP :p Aug 31 22:03:35 scratchbox? Aug 31 22:03:35 <_Monkey> scratchbox is, like, a cross-compilation toolkit designed to make embedded Linux application development easier. It is used by Maemo development platform but is not restricted to that use.

Aug 31 22:06:41 well Aug 31 22:06:46 germany has stronger consumer protection laws, higher taxes and import tarriffs and higher energy prices - all of these are reflected in product prices Aug 31 22:06:54 since the USD went to hell eveyrthing costs more in the EU than in the US Aug 31 22:07:01 think XBOX 360, PS3, all kinds of software etc etc Aug 31 22:07:18 eh? funny logic. I guess you're from US? Aug 31 22:07:18 plus most US prices are listed without VAT while most EU prices include VAT Aug 31 22:07:22 that is backwards. when the value of the dollar falls, prices go up in the USA Aug 31 22:07:31 that is correct Aug 31 22:07:57 scratchbox? Aug 31 22:07:57 <_Monkey> rumour has it scratchbox is a cross-compilation toolkit for maemo application development. Homepage: http://www.scratchbox.org/ Maemo 3.x (bora/N800) tutorial: http://qurl.org/yN Maemo 2.2 (gregale/770) tutorial: http://qurl.org/zN A walkthrough for 3.x: http://qurl.org/0O Scratchbox Downloads: http://qurl.org/1O Aug 31 22:08:03 its not about the value of the dollar, its about the way companies decide to set the dollar as equal to the euro Aug 31 22:08:06 while thats not the case Aug 31 22:08:14 no longer true Aug 31 22:08:26 $399 is not €399 and companies should know that Aug 31 22:08:44 @@? Aug 31 22:08:59 that second 399 is in Euros :p Aug 31 22:09:14 lle2 do you want to improve that scratchbox hint for _Monkey? Aug 31 22:09:22 Yes. It sucks. I'll have an ee for 199$. Aug 31 22:09:34 Not for 299€ or 399€. Aug 31 22:09:46 pupnik: not really, I don't have anything constructive to say about sb1 :) Aug 31 22:10:10 hmm, it seems my current fonts have issues with non-english letters... Aug 31 22:11:31 you pay higher prices in europe because your governments know what to do with your money better than you do Aug 31 22:11:36 (or at least they think they do) Aug 31 22:12:04 even after taxes we end up paying more pupnik Aug 31 22:12:14 yes do you know why? Aug 31 22:12:20 also because here you need localised versions for each 5-15 million people Aug 31 22:12:33 with localised support Aug 31 22:12:51 no we dont :p Aug 31 22:12:53 well consider that in germany, computer products must carry a three year warranty. Who ends up paying for all those devices that get sent back after 2.5 years? Aug 31 22:12:59 You pay for it, in the purchase price. Aug 31 22:13:30 In england i think it's 5 years. Aug 31 22:13:40 re Aug 31 22:13:51 actually its european law or something that all electronics come with a 2 year warranty Aug 31 22:14:08 the taxes aren't so great, but my gf got a root canal for about 150€, so i think i'm coming out ahead so far. Aug 31 22:14:24 In the US you have the *option* of purchasing an extended warranty - if you want to pay for it. Aug 31 22:14:26 also Aug 31 22:14:29 here in Greece Aug 31 22:14:30 its freaking hot Aug 31 22:14:34 Which solution offers choice to the consumer? Aug 31 22:14:36 hahaha Aug 31 22:14:45 funny, most of the stuff I buy in finland seem to carry only a 12month warranty. not that it really matters. end up losing most of the crap before that anyway. Aug 31 22:14:58 the guy at the media markt tried to sell me an extended warranty with my n800 Aug 31 22:15:17 because it only came with 6 months or something Aug 31 22:15:17 let me restate the above Aug 31 22:15:23 i meant a 2 years MANUFACTURER's warranty Aug 31 22:15:30 not a store-warranty Aug 31 22:15:33 or maybe its the other way Aug 31 22:15:39 im not sure, havent slept in a long time Aug 31 22:15:46 i think you are correct shodanjr_gr Aug 31 22:16:03 ah. well, he also told me the warranty would cover me if it died because of a bike crash, but i'm skeptical of that Aug 31 22:16:20 well accidental insurance is different Aug 31 22:16:29 pupnik: as some have tried to point out with linux distros, to much choice is a bad thing, at times... Aug 31 22:16:37 the manufacturer's warranty covers you on hardware failures Aug 31 22:16:45 On the wiki there is a section on integrating bt pan into the connection manager on the 770. It links to a page to download 'dbus-s'. The link has a ) at the end. It causes a 404 error. It took me awhile to notice the problem. I just thought the file was goe. Could someone fix it? Aug 31 22:17:02 although most of my electronics at some point or other end up out of warranty before their time Aug 31 22:17:10 i don't really beleive that they would cover me if i, say, crashed cuz i was drunk bicycling (don't drink and bike) Aug 31 22:17:11 cause i always brek the warranty seals and poke inside :p Aug 31 22:17:28 celesteh there are some store-warranties that cover ANY sort of damage regardless of cause Aug 31 22:17:41 there was a store in the US that would even replace your console if YOU poored water on it on PURPOSE Aug 31 22:18:19 what happened to the store? Aug 31 22:18:38 that's nuts. Aug 31 22:18:46 its a large chain Aug 31 22:18:50 and thats an extra charge service Aug 31 22:18:54 its not the default warranty Aug 31 22:18:57 of course there are positives and negatives tso - recall the USA N770 buyer whose 770 broke after 18 days and he could not get it fixed for free because it wasn't from an authorized reseller Aug 31 22:18:59 and it costed quite a big Aug 31 22:19:01 *bit Aug 31 22:19:34 that's different. sure you can buy such idiot insurances in europe as well Aug 31 22:19:36 yep, there is no black or white, only infinite shades of gray... Aug 31 22:19:56 i finally pointed claws mail at the right gmail account and now it's timing out when connecting to the SMTP server Aug 31 22:19:58 in other news i aced my compilers project today :p Aug 31 22:20:07 yay! Aug 31 22:20:26 * shodanjr_gr duffman pelvis thrust Aug 31 22:20:33 shodanjr_gr: you should implement X86-ARM dynamic recompilation in dosbox Aug 31 22:20:42 hm... Aug 31 22:20:45 actually Aug 31 22:20:50 fix qemu instead Aug 31 22:21:02 for the moment id like to add a division operation to the small subset of java i had to make a compiler for :p Aug 31 22:22:01 brb gona go get some cereals Aug 31 22:22:05 I wish universities would put computer science students to work on *useful* things Aug 31 22:22:32 undergrads at uc berkeley wrote GIMP, iirc Aug 31 22:22:56 uc berkeley also wrote BSD Aug 31 22:23:09 before the days of the microsoft takeover of universities Aug 31 22:23:13 but not undergrads in their free time Aug 31 22:23:21 which is who wrote gimp Aug 31 22:23:42 java is really really popular with cs departments now, and with good reason Aug 31 22:23:46 yeah i remember Aug 31 22:24:04 sure they write useful things, if you value some enterprise java beans Aug 31 22:24:48 i don't know if i've ever written anything useful actually Aug 31 22:25:06 how virus-proof is Linux? I haven't spotted anything like ClamAV for the n800 yet Aug 31 22:25:11 no, scratch that. lots of cgi scripts :p Aug 31 22:25:43 yeah Aug 31 22:25:45 id like that too Aug 31 22:25:59 we dont get the chacne to work on "usable" stuff Aug 31 22:26:27 * celesteh drones on about current theories of university pedagogy Aug 31 22:26:54 actually, i think there's a trend going on, away from usable. Aug 31 22:27:01 actually the only projects ive ever done that were close to "usable" were a couple of web based applications (PHP and JSP) Aug 31 22:27:02 Anyone here know how to make a bootable cd that is more than a few megs in size? Aug 31 22:27:05 and they were BORING as hell Aug 31 22:27:38 im talking "slice my wrists like an emo kid boring" Aug 31 22:27:43 most programming is boring as hell. large reason i don't do it for money any more Aug 31 22:27:49 well Aug 31 22:27:50 idk Aug 31 22:27:56 i loved both the compiler's project Aug 31 22:28:02 and a cryptography project i did Aug 31 22:28:04 very fun and very challenging Aug 31 22:28:27 i loved school too. it's great. always doing new things. nobody asks you to fix bugs in the stupid project of doom that never ends. it's great Aug 31 22:28:57 hahhaha :p Aug 31 22:28:57 programming for money on the other hand . . . Aug 31 22:28:58 that IS true Aug 31 22:29:20 yeah thats one of the things i fear for when im done with the university tvh Aug 31 22:29:29 what do you do for aliving now celesteh? Aug 31 22:29:36 find out why the db gets out of sync when people use this giant collection of broken CGI scripts that don't do locking correctly. arg. Aug 31 22:30:19 i went back to school. now i compose algorimic music Aug 31 22:30:27 wow Aug 31 22:30:30 that sounds cool Aug 31 22:30:34 "pun intended" :p Aug 31 22:30:35 just as much programming, but sometimes now the bugs sound nice Aug 31 22:30:51 * shodanjr_gr is watching The Black Adder Aug 31 22:33:17 say waht you will Aug 31 22:33:22 British comedy rules Aug 31 22:33:39 http://www.berkeleynoise.com/celesteh Aug 31 22:34:11 hmm, i have a feel that the database (or whatever) that the application manager uses have been corrupted. it seems i have minimo installed while i cant find it in said manager... Aug 31 22:34:17 have you seen Peep Show, shodan? Aug 31 22:34:50 nah Aug 31 22:36:11 hm... Aug 31 22:36:14 what to do... Aug 31 22:36:16 it's my favourite British comedy Aug 31 22:36:24 well worth a look if you're into understated savage humour Aug 31 22:36:29 i like the old school stuff Aug 31 22:36:33 Monty Pythons Aug 31 22:36:38 John Cleese Aug 31 22:36:40 Fawlty Towers, Fools and Horses? Aug 31 22:36:44 oh yeah Aug 31 22:36:50 Fawlty Towers is soooooooooooooooooooo good Aug 31 22:37:19 So anyway - is the N800 virus-prone or too small to have any viruses written for it? Aug 31 22:37:20 tso, i don't know how you can fix that except for reflashing Aug 31 22:37:29 well Aug 31 22:37:39 like any device in theory its virus prone Aug 31 22:37:49 i was afraid of something like that Aug 31 22:37:58 [23:36] hmm, i have a feel that the database (or whatever) that the application manager uses have been corrupted. it seems i have minimo installed while i cant find it in said manager... <- can you not access it through Extras either? Aug 31 22:38:00 its been proven that for every combination of OS and harwdare platform there CAN be a virus Aug 31 22:38:16 however getting an Internet Tablet infected would be the least of my worries :p Aug 31 22:38:18 i could just be a problem with minimo Aug 31 22:38:34 Okay, but since there are no AV programmes (that I've found) what are my chances of picking something up? Aug 31 22:38:45 IT could just be a problem with minimo. lord knows that app has problems Aug 31 22:38:48 very very very slim to nilch Aug 31 22:38:48 WhisperingVoices: i can run it just fine from extras, thats why i think its still installed. under its not listed under installed apps, but shows up under "installable apps"... Aug 31 22:39:11 tried re-installing and then removing? Aug 31 22:39:12 what happens if you try to install it, tso? Aug 31 22:39:14 the Internet Platform user base is too small for a virus writter to actually bother Aug 31 22:39:27 the install fails, with a very non-informative error... Aug 31 22:39:34 one of the bajillion lurkers is going to take that as a challenge Aug 31 22:39:38 when I tried to install Minimo it pretended to crash half way through, I tried again and it said it was installed and it shows up fine for me Aug 31 22:39:39 :p Aug 31 22:39:47 shodanjr_gr: I think virus writers are simply not smart enough to get the dev environment working Aug 31 22:39:56 I'll use the default browser instead of minimo then Aug 31 22:40:00 but i have a feel the install fails because of a lack of space... Aug 31 22:40:06 security through obstruction of development Aug 31 22:40:14 hahahha Aug 31 22:40:15 :p Aug 31 22:40:30 im gona suggest that to my Infrastructure Security Professor :p Aug 31 22:40:36 you can check how much space you have by looking at the file manager. Aug 31 22:40:50 also, minimo is just the largest of the programs not listed iirc. there are some others in "extras" that i cant find listed in installed apps... Aug 31 22:41:12 try Red Pilling? Aug 31 22:41:21 maybe there's some sort of weird permissions problem in getting it to show Aug 31 22:41:34 ahahhaah Black Adder 2 is hilarious Aug 31 22:41:36 hmm, didnt think about that. sillty me Aug 31 22:41:54 * celesteh is lazy and would just backup and reflash Aug 31 22:45:22 hmm, still dont see it listed... Aug 31 22:51:46 celesteh: to much windows-like for my taste... Aug 31 22:52:04 i like to understand why something failed, so that maybe it can be fixed in the future Aug 31 22:53:20 heh, i wonder if nokia will put a couple of buttons on the right side of the wimax n800, and put in n-gage support on it... Aug 31 22:58:54 hmm, managed to free up enough space to "install" minimo... Aug 31 23:00:27 heh, i have the same free space both before and after install :P Aug 31 23:00:35 maybe ill just leave it alone then Aug 31 23:06:23 is there a way to run a full-fledged maemo2007 system in a VM? Aug 31 23:13:10 tso something like this? http://pupnik.de/Nokia970med4.png Aug 31 23:13:44 hehe, cool picture :) Aug 31 23:14:01 looks like a interesting device that :) Aug 31 23:14:13 does it have triggers on top? Aug 31 23:16:38 still, there is allways the gp2x Aug 31 23:18:39 well talk about the sun, does this look familiar? http://gp2x.com/ Aug 31 23:22:23 I know the gp2x but i don't want to buy a device just for games Aug 31 23:22:35 And i don't want to carry around two or three devices Aug 31 23:23:30 i know the feel... Aug 31 23:23:54 hell, with the 770, im allready carrying two device (it and a phone, the SE Z710) Aug 31 23:24:02 I'm afraid Nokia will not put any buttons on the right hand side for two reasons: 1) The tablet is supposed to look 'serious' and rhs buttons might make it look too 'gamey' and 2) Nokia might not want to turn the tablet into a device that could compete with their N-Gage line. Aug 31 23:24:49 thats why i said "put in n-gage support in the sprint-bound wimax version of n800" Aug 31 23:24:58 Ahh Aug 31 23:25:26 But even with n-gage support, the controllers on the N800 are not suitable. Aug 31 23:25:54 You *need* an 8-way dpad that can be moved swiftly, and at least 4 buttons on the rhs Aug 31 23:26:53 An interesting possiblity might be a slide-on case with integrated gaming dpad on the left and buttons on the righthand side Aug 31 23:27:02 hmm... Aug 31 23:27:09 usb connected maybe? Aug 31 23:27:17 usb or bluetooth Aug 31 23:27:37 still, that gp2x-f200 looks sexy. and by the looks of it comes with cave story installed?! Aug 31 23:28:24 Yes, i like it best of all the portable gaming platforms. Aug 31 23:28:51 i would go with usb if the port on the n800 is in the same place as the 770. especially if its a slide on design... Aug 31 23:29:11 However it has the same cpus as the f100, which means no full-speed Snes or PSX possible Aug 31 23:30:01 I might build my own slide on case controller with the bluetooth gamepad that's sold for 30 euro. Aug 31 23:30:01 hmm, sad :( Aug 31 23:31:02 hmm, it looks like the F200 isnt that big a step up from the F100... Aug 31 23:31:23 yes Aug 31 23:32:58 its mostly new color, screen (touch), image viewer, and redesigned dpad... Aug 31 23:34:26 i'm waiting until 2008 Aug 31 23:37:11 heh Aug 31 23:37:34 hmm, i wonder what people will pull of with "the bug"... Aug 31 23:37:44 ? Aug 31 23:37:56 what is the bug? Aug 31 23:37:56 <_Monkey> the bug is shitty Aug 31 23:40:14 http://buglabs.net/products Aug 31 23:40:42 it seems to feature a stronger cpu then the gp2x Aug 31 23:41:13 hmm, seems to be the same as the one in the n800... Aug 31 23:41:31 but there is no talk about the amount of ram... Sep 01 00:00:35 tso - there is also no product Sep 01 00:03:05 true, but its to show up q4 2007, so its right around the corner... Sep 01 01:00:57 Digi digi Sep 01 01:55:16 brb Sep 01 01:56:01 is there a full maemo image for qemu/vmware other than just SDK? Sep 01 02:02:28 hello folks Sep 01 02:02:34 any pipes wizard in the house? Sep 01 02:21:40 anyone know of a webkit browser for n800? Sep 01 02:21:47 wow there are some really good speech synths now Sep 01 02:26:24 some posts from webkit developer http://blog.gwright.org.uk/ last 20 days ago :/ Sep 01 02:26:53 yeah, I saw some news at the beginning of the month but haven't heard much since **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Sep 01 02:59:56 2007
