**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Oct 28 02:59:57 2007 Oct 28 03:04:30 So how do you all think the n800 will handle the os 2008?" Oct 28 03:05:06 since it's equivalen to the n810 wrt hardware, about as well as the n810 Oct 28 03:05:36 Really? Oct 28 03:05:41 The processor and ram is exactly equivilent? Oct 28 03:05:50 processor is Oct 28 03:05:53 So does that mean youtube becomming more smooth is software and NOT hardware? Oct 28 03:06:18 *shrug*, i work on the web browser Oct 28 03:06:50 sixpence: First, as far as I know, Flash has been updated to the latest beta. Oct 28 03:06:52 and "more smooth" in the vague context of "some extremely complicated and highly ambiguous web application" is at best hard to quantify Oct 28 03:07:26 sixpence: Second, the tablets will allow dynamically changing the clock speed higher for more intensive applications and stuff. Oct 28 03:07:35 I'd imagine flash would be able to take advantage of that. Oct 28 03:08:09 the platform does it automaically, flash doesn't have any influence (or shouldn't) Oct 28 03:09:11 zerojay: On BOTh tablets. Oct 28 03:09:58 sixpence: Both tablets use the same firmware and are virtually the same to the kernel. If it sees GPS when it boots, it'll load the GPS kernel module.. if not, it's ignored. Oct 28 03:10:13 If the modules are not built into the kernel, that is. Oct 28 03:10:43 zerojay: Alright. I got it. :d Oct 28 03:18:46 A lot of people don't realize that the N810 isn't really meant to be an upgrade like the N800 was to the 770.. but more of a consumer mainstream friendly version of the N800. Oct 28 03:19:34 An alternative form factor Oct 28 03:19:54 Yep. Oct 28 03:21:29 For maemo to take off, i think we need a diverse set of portables running the ITOS Oct 28 03:21:38 From different manufacturers even Oct 28 04:42:32 anyone using gmyth and maemomyth around? Oct 28 04:42:40 is there a good forum for maemo users? Oct 28 04:42:50 sparr: internettablettalk.com Oct 28 05:04:55 ok, maybe someone will buy my 770s Oct 28 05:06:19 it could serve you fine for years Oct 28 05:06:31 side-grading back to a gp2x soon Oct 28 05:06:52 im mostly a gamer, and since the new gp2x has a touch screen it can fill my small PIM needs too Oct 28 05:06:57 you could consider 770 as full grade pc Oct 28 05:07:42 http://sparrsstuff.com/maemo <-- its not like i am unaware of what it can do :-p Oct 28 05:08:21 I wasn't aware of gp2x, have to admit Oct 28 05:08:57 bye Oct 28 05:08:59 had one before my 770. got stolen :( Oct 28 05:09:07 some jackass thought it was a PSP, had it in a PSP case Oct 28 05:09:10 wont make that mistake again Oct 28 05:09:12 how much it costs? Oct 28 05:10:27 about $180 Oct 28 05:10:56 not so much Oct 28 05:11:06 it could kill n810 Oct 28 05:11:24 nah Oct 28 05:11:26 no wifi Oct 28 05:11:27 no keyboard Oct 28 05:11:36 no [large] built in storage Oct 28 05:11:37 gp2x only playstation? Oct 28 05:11:37 command line? Oct 28 05:11:39 no package manager Oct 28 05:11:46 macluvjay: huh? Oct 28 05:11:47 ah Oct 28 05:11:57 i want nes emu Oct 28 05:12:00 k, looks similar to 770/800 Oct 28 05:12:09 gp2x has a great NES emulator. ditto SNES. crappy PSX emulator Oct 28 05:12:26 awesome thanks Oct 28 05:12:39 nokia could make a killing with a game device based on maemo... real d-pad, shoulder buttons and right side buttons, it would rock Oct 28 05:12:50 but it wouldnt be as fast as the gp2x Oct 28 05:12:51 where can i get? Oct 28 05:13:01 gp2x has two ~250MHz ARM cores Oct 28 05:13:04 the first result on google Oct 28 05:13:12 macluvjay: http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/Where_to_Buy%3F Oct 28 05:13:30 first google result is probably gp2x.co.uk, not the cheapest or fastest place to order from unless you live in the UK Oct 28 05:13:31 takes me to the archive index Oct 28 05:13:46 http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/Where_to_Buy Oct 28 05:14:04 the gp2x is designed for gaming, with PIM as an afterthought. the opposite of maemo. Oct 28 05:14:05 sparr, I see 800/810 as play on device Oct 28 05:14:22 ah Oct 28 05:14:28 zoran: without a real d-pad its mostly impossible to play most real action/arcade games for more than a few minutes Oct 28 05:14:48 -hm, not a fan of gaming Oct 28 05:15:04 was hoping for a small emu for the 800 Oct 28 05:15:04 sparr: I wouldn't say it is the opposite for maemo Oct 28 05:15:13 the ITs aren't PIM devices Oct 28 05:15:20 gp2x doesnt [normally] run X11 like maemo does, they have their own light weight GUI that shuts down when you run a game. the games tend to be very low level as well, often written with large chunks in asm, manipulating the device hardware directly instead of using high level stuff Oct 28 05:15:34 cesman: i know, but the gp2x is also not an internet tablet Oct 28 05:15:37 for those $180 it plays mp3 and shoes video, if I see it correctly Oct 28 05:15:40 sparr: I think the perfect portable would be a combination of the N8xx and a GP2X Oct 28 05:15:47 yes, it plays mp3 and shows video Oct 28 05:15:49 *shows Oct 28 05:16:17 cesman: i have thought that for a long time, with influences from the NDS and PSP and Mylo as well Oct 28 05:16:31 sparr, a lot of folks want just that Oct 28 05:16:34 cesman: somewhere in N-space, there is an imaginary handheld with all the great features of all those platforms... but no one makes it :( Oct 28 05:16:51 zoran: QVGA isnt as good for video as the 770/8xx Oct 28 05:16:55 conmpaq has fine line of ipaqs Oct 28 05:17:17 sparr, you are correct Oct 28 05:17:35 "the" gp2x software archive: http://archive.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi Oct 28 05:18:03 should see a major influx of new stuff once the new model hits the streets, with a touch screen. Oct 28 05:18:15 touch screen opens up a lot of options for non-gaming apps, and for non-action games Oct 28 05:18:23 sparr: there is a new gp in the works?! Oct 28 05:18:51 it reminds me of what people want from new phone model: good camera, video, music, organizer...; no phone usage? Oct 28 05:19:43 cesman: yes, gp2x F200. its the MK2 with a touch screen and a d-pad Oct 28 05:19:54 got a link? Oct 28 05:19:56 cesman: and not "in the works"... it shipped to distributors this week. Oct 28 05:20:11 http://www.google.com/search?q=gp2x+f200 :) Oct 28 05:20:21 :) Oct 28 05:20:22 just did Oct 28 05:20:22 someone knows what is going on with 2600.net? Oct 28 05:20:47 http://gp2x.co.uk/ Oct 28 05:21:29 other than those two things, and a slot for the stylus, its supposed to be functionally identical to the F100, and perfectly software compatible. Oct 28 05:21:49 lots of devs are doubtful about the "perfectly" part, odds are some hardware addresses have changed that they didnt bother to document, but thats small change Oct 28 05:23:41 the gp2x is an excellent platform for very low level development. if i ever get off my ass and do something original, instead of crappy ports (i ported enigma, mostly), it will be a good item for my portfolio trying to find a game development job Oct 28 05:24:22 gp2x restarted my interest in very low level programming Oct 28 05:49:01 Figure you might be getting this alot, but anyone gotten python installed on latest revision for the n800? Oct 28 05:49:28 Yes. Oct 28 05:50:01 any hints? Keep getting dependancy errors w/ libsdl-ttf and a couple others Oct 28 05:50:27 Er.. that's odd. Oct 28 05:50:37 Never had those issues. Oct 28 05:50:38 change fonts? Oct 28 05:50:39 <_Monkey> zoran: that doesn't look right Oct 28 05:50:48 Installed perfectly fine in blue pill mode. Oct 28 05:51:20 It installed fine for me earlier today, but after reflashing to latest version, it doesn't anymore :( Oct 28 05:51:40 new os version? Oct 28 05:52:08 nod, 4.2007.38-2 Oct 28 05:52:19 That's a month or so old now. Oct 28 05:52:25 38 isn't a new version anyway Oct 28 05:52:34 it's the same as he previous version w/ a kernel fix Oct 28 05:52:52 nod. That's why I didn't get why it would cause dependancy problems. Oct 28 05:52:56 I meant, is it different from the previous? Oct 28 06:39:46 zoran: how about wifi and bleutooth , ain't that handy? Oct 28 06:40:04 keesj, remind me, please Oct 28 06:40:23 the gp2x does not have such connectivity right? Oct 28 06:40:44 supose so; don't have the gadget Oct 28 06:41:03 sparr is the guy with that dude Oct 28 06:41:20 I think that the 770 + wii controller should beat the gp2x anyday anytime Oct 28 06:41:36 I like my 770 as all round box Oct 28 06:42:30 but I think it as real computer, with linux as method Oct 28 06:42:52 gp2x does not have built in wifi or bluetooth Oct 28 06:43:49 I read phone reviews now and found it close to any pc already Oct 28 06:44:10 but the gp2x has more processing power than the 770 Oct 28 06:45:03 two cpu's but not really used right? Oct 28 06:45:34 the core OS uses one. the other is used by some stock apps, some homebrew apps. Oct 28 06:45:44 there are libraries to do math and 2d and 3d graphics on the second cpu Oct 28 06:46:07 nice, I did not know that Oct 28 06:46:08 the built in media player uses both, so it can decode more compressed video than the 770 Oct 28 06:47:22 I see people on the bus playing fabulous games on their phones; some phones are the size of medium brick Oct 28 06:48:35 I recall people in flight, using laptops for some basic game, that children almost have it on the wrist watch Oct 28 06:50:46 yeah Oct 28 06:51:04 im happy with SNES emulation on the gp2x. that alone is enough gaming to last a lifetime Oct 28 06:51:27 the homebrew and such is just icing on the cake Oct 28 06:52:03 sparr, what is snes? Oct 28 06:52:36 super nintendo entertainment system Oct 28 06:52:41 :) Oct 28 06:52:45 nintendo's 16 bit console, circa 1990 Oct 28 06:53:10 my cousin likes game emulators on his xp, for old spwctrum amiga etc Oct 28 06:53:29 there are emulators for almost every old console for the gp2x Oct 28 06:53:44 http://archive.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,5 Oct 28 06:54:02 I recall of the game called "elite", about space traders and more Oct 28 06:54:20 elite, elite 2, elite plus. if you liked elite and have a PC, try oolite Oct 28 06:54:42 hm, not so interested, but liked it that days Oct 28 06:54:48 and if you like MMO games, there is Jumpgate (out of business?) and Earth and Beyond and EVE Online Oct 28 06:55:08 A version of Elite for the NES was finished but never was produced... the programmers released a free ROM if you're interested. Oct 28 06:55:33 I like another kind of stuff now Oct 28 06:56:20 zerojay: im sure i already have it... years ago i took the time to download every ROM of every game for every console up to the SNES :) Oct 28 06:56:41 sparr: There's always new dumps. Oct 28 06:56:50 sure, but odds are i wont be looking for them Oct 28 06:57:18 sparr could build a library of games and ask nokai to fund it Oct 28 06:57:50 http://rafb.net/p/nIkH8I80.html Oct 28 06:58:18 I've got a huge rom collection as well. Oct 28 06:58:20 games and video and music feed all those devices like phones, 770/800, all kind of players Oct 28 06:58:41 Got you beat. Oct 28 06:58:59 at some point there are diminishing returns Oct 28 06:59:03 i wasnt really trying to set a record Oct 28 06:59:09 Me either. Oct 28 06:59:18 I just want everything I could possibly want to play. Oct 28 06:59:22 just trying to reach the "i probably wont have to hunt for a ROM for [insert game here] next year when i want to play it" point Oct 28 06:59:27 Full MAME set, full PS1 set.. Oct 28 06:59:41 PS1 is a little more disk space than i want to dedicate Oct 28 06:59:49 Understandably. Oct 28 06:59:53 MAME is on my to-do list Oct 28 07:00:01 Full US set, ~390GB. Oct 28 07:00:32 or nas as game server? Oct 28 07:00:38 zoran: that too Oct 28 07:01:03 zoran: I've got my PC set up for playing games locally but also serving by Samba to two Xboxes. Oct 28 07:01:04 you could hae all games on the storage and call them from emulator, not having it all around at your box Oct 28 07:02:05 if emu supports net protocol Oct 28 07:02:20 Unfortunately, not all do. Oct 28 07:02:50 I saw one linksys nas device for about $70 and space for 2 usb hdd Oct 28 07:03:06 NSLU-2. Oct 28 07:03:10 yes Oct 28 07:03:20 I wanted one of those for a while. Oct 28 07:03:21 not sure ifit is fast enough Oct 28 07:03:28 me too Oct 28 07:04:11 there is newer one, but does not look so fine as nslu2 Oct 28 07:04:36 Linksys? Oct 28 07:04:39 yep Oct 28 07:04:45 cannot recall the name Oct 28 07:04:50 gonna google Oct 28 07:05:29 nas200 Oct 28 07:05:37 * czr mornings all Oct 28 07:07:41 * zoran gone to feed dragons Oct 28 07:17:35 sparr: awesome pic http://sparrsstuff.com/gallery2/d/6656-2/img_3088.jpg?g2_GALLERYSID=e4842c01406e6bea705c5446938f73c8 Oct 28 07:22:04 Anybody want to work on porting arm-optimized SNES emulator to 770/N800? Oct 28 07:35:31 leg-optimized might be better Oct 28 07:35:41 I'd like to work on it, but no spare time sadly :-( Oct 28 07:51:41 neato - java http://alexander.lash.googlepages.com/n800n770work Oct 28 08:19:26 Morning, all Oct 28 08:21:07 pupnik: so many different varieties of ARM, and most optimizations arent so much for the CPU as for the supporting hardware Oct 28 08:24:39 And the number of hours you have spent learning SNES emulation = ? Oct 28 08:26:19 Sorry - anyway i don't think that's right. Oct 28 08:27:56 Big gains are achieved with ARM ASM rewrites of cores and ppu Oct 28 08:29:10 blitting to screen and sound output should be efficient, but only becomes a real issue at > 10fps Oct 28 08:47:04 learning? Oct 28 08:47:08 not sure what you mean Oct 28 08:47:35 most good SNES emulators on weak hardware make very specific use of the hardware for things like sprite and tile blitting Oct 28 08:48:04 sure, someone could write an uber all-ARM-asm implementation of that, but it would be crap compared to an emulator optimized for a specific platform Oct 28 08:48:38 and it would still only run on a particular subset of ARM chips. ARM 5? ARM 7? ARM 9? with or without THUMB? with or without the FPU? Oct 28 10:11:13 * sp3000 grumbles Oct 28 10:12:22 guess what doesn't have the right time this morning Oct 28 10:12:27 * sp3000 wonders why that is Oct 28 10:21:44 sp3000: European clocks went back last night. Oct 28 10:21:58 * Jaffa *guesses* you knew this, though Oct 28 10:22:03 right. Oct 28 10:22:50 everything else handled it Oct 28 10:22:59 * sp3000 isn't ruling out misconfiguration Oct 28 10:23:29 oh maybe everything else has the wrong time. hmm. Oct 28 10:24:22 It's currently 10:24 GMT/UTC Oct 28 10:27:36 well doh is me Oct 28 10:28:56 so everything else is wrong, instead :) Oct 28 10:29:03 that's ...a kind of encouraging Oct 28 10:30:48 that's what you get when you're not up at 3am with your machines to see them cope with a dst switch with hwclock set to local Oct 28 10:31:03 * sp3000 wonders when that last happened :) Oct 28 10:31:13 time sucks Oct 28 11:46:45 hi there..... Oct 28 11:46:56 real noob needs some help from a wise one Oct 28 11:47:10 sparr: ok Granted, I should have specified that the ARM-optimized SNES emus use ARM7 / ARM9 instructino sets. Beyond that, no target-hardware-specific acceleration has been implemented in any of them. No emulator offloads sound emulation onto a dsp. No emulator implements SNES PPU (pixel processing unit) acceleration using target-hardwar gpu acceleration (compositing/sprites). Oct 28 11:47:46 jo crazyjim Oct 28 11:47:51 hi Oct 28 11:47:51 <_Monkey> what's up, crazyjim Oct 28 11:48:10 ummmm well I got a cheap nokia 770 Oct 28 11:48:21 and I have put some apps and games on it Oct 28 11:48:28 I have an expensive one :| Oct 28 11:48:36 i need a good browser as I am having issues with some sites Oct 28 11:48:43 microb?

Oct 28 12:49:11 MPEG4 video, MP3 audio, 1000-1500Kbps 20-30fps, 400x240 (400x*** for widescreen and 320x240 for 4:3) Oct 28 12:49:30 Robot101: when is UK joining the schengen? i want to visit there for a weekend but tooo lazy to go through the visa process :( Oct 28 12:50:54 zeenix: it's we're not that likely to any time soon as far as I know, something to do with not really trusting the rest of europe to do good enough imigration control :P Oct 28 12:51:12 s/it's // Oct 28 12:51:12 Robot101 meant: zeenix: we're not that likely to any time soon as far as I know, something to do with not really trusting the rest of europe to do good enough imigration control :P Oct 28 12:51:30 and who could blame you? Oct 28 12:51:35 Just look at France. :\ Oct 28 12:52:59 GeneralAntilles: what about france? Oct 28 13:02:17 libsmbclient .. Interesting. Oct 28 13:22:02 Apparently the Bunsfield Oil Depot fire destroyed the computer system which was handling the details of Britain joining Schengen, so now it's not happening. Oct 28 13:24:19 Hahah Oct 28 13:25:05 It's little far-fetched, then you think about other Governmental computer systems... Oct 28 13:25:54 Yeah Oct 28 13:26:05 Like the farse with the NHS last year Oct 28 13:26:10 wtf.. apt-get update doesn't say there was an error but still returns != 0 and tells me to run it again to to correct the problem. what might be happening here? Oct 28 13:26:36 have you guys branched apt for maemo? Oct 28 13:26:58 Not as far as I know rafl. Oct 28 13:27:05 What does apt actually say? Oct 28 13:27:11 apt-get install -f ? Oct 28 13:28:24 the dpkg database is consistent, so -f install doesn't do anything. Oct 28 13:29:26 update just gives a few warnings wrt archive keys and then just fails. Oct 28 13:33:14 http://205.243.100.155/frames/shrinkergallery.html coin shrinking Oct 28 13:37:59 is the automatic onscreen keyboard completion hackable somehow? Oct 28 13:38:48 will os2008 reduce batterylife as it's not underclocking anymore? Oct 28 13:39:28 rafl: it'll be underclocking more ... most of the time. Oct 28 13:39:29 rafl, it shouldn't. Oct 28 13:39:50 The frequency scaling and power saving is very good in the tablets. Oct 28 13:41:17 so basically better powermanagement which allows the cpu to run at higher frequencies when needed? Oct 28 13:41:21 cool.. Oct 28 13:44:50 re Oct 28 13:45:19 if i format my mmc2 in ext2 format, after boot how to reload the ext2 module automatically ? Oct 28 14:08:59 how about an init script? Oct 28 14:12:14 uh.. garage refuses to work :-/ Oct 28 14:31:44 mmm Oct 28 14:32:11 after latest firmare i'm unable to load ext2 module... Oct 28 14:32:25 device/os? Oct 28 14:32:43 it report "Unknown symbol in module (-1):no such file o directory Oct 28 14:33:14 n800/2007.38.2 Oct 28 14:33:26 do you have ext2.ko in current? Oct 28 14:33:30 no Oct 28 14:33:34 ah! Oct 28 14:33:58 ext3? Oct 28 14:34:07 '/mnt/initfs/lib/modules/2.6.18ecc.... Oct 28 14:34:19 list it Oct 28 14:34:20 i have not current Oct 28 14:34:24 dunno why Oct 28 14:34:35 what is in 2.6.18... ? Oct 28 14:35:19 insmod /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/2.6.18-omap1/ext2.ko Oct 28 14:36:03 you read my minds Oct 28 14:36:50 ext2 and 3 modules does exists Oct 28 14:37:34 also bnep module is gone, so no PAN connections... Oct 28 14:37:55 loading manualy would give the answer Oct 28 14:39:31 hola Oct 28 14:39:31 <_Monkey> bonjour, zpol Oct 28 14:40:00 Hola, zpol . Oct 28 14:40:12 ciao zpol Oct 28 14:40:12 _Monkey speaks even swiss language Oct 28 14:40:13 <_Monkey> zoran: i'm not following you... Oct 28 14:40:40 _Monkey got R2D2 extension Oct 28 14:40:40 <_Monkey> zoran: what? Oct 28 14:40:59 heya L0c-[N800] DRoBeR Oct 28 14:46:35 can i adjust the onscreen keyboards size? Oct 28 14:48:13 Why would you want to? Oct 28 14:50:51 because i prefer to see more of the actual application. Oct 28 15:02:38 For those who haven't seen mediaserv in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBmU_I_FlXc Oct 28 15:05:10 very fast startup time Oct 28 15:05:19 is that family guy thing transcoded? Oct 28 15:05:52 anyone wanna buy me a n810... Oct 28 15:06:06 Yeah, mediaserv is wonderfully fantastic. :) Oct 28 15:06:07 The source is DVD rip at 720x576 at ~1000kbps video bitrate and 192kbps audio on a 1GHz VIA C3 processor. Oct 28 15:06:59 Jaffa: fulls creen would be nice Oct 28 15:07:29 Press the full screen key: it's the standard media player (or mplayer, depending on how you've configured your web browser and/or Video Center) Oct 28 15:08:24 i don't see how it starts the transcoding so fast. must have a small buffer on the server side. Oct 28 15:08:55 Buffer size is configurable, defaults to 2 seconds. Oct 28 15:09:30 That's 770-encode's "average" preset too. Oct 28 15:10:07 hrm.. mediaserv <3 Oct 28 15:17:03 i wonder how hard it would be to set up a crosscompilation environment without scratchbox. it's constantly biting me.. Oct 28 15:19:20 LD_PRELOAD, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, PATH, ... it's just insane :-/ Oct 28 15:20:07 i never mess with default scratchbox ld environment Oct 28 15:20:16 esp. that libresolv hack bugs me. Oct 28 15:21:07 well.. i'd like to not mess with it, but i want my things to be ported.. Oct 28 15:21:57 i wonder if sb2 would be better. at least it sounds less insane. Oct 28 15:22:09 i just mentioned this because it might be informative to know that pupnik does not need to mess with these things to compile many programs Oct 28 15:22:46 rafl: sb1 "works" for current stuff, so nobody bothers working on sb2 rulesets Oct 28 15:23:24 i got your point, but my apps seem to have weird build systems Oct 28 15:23:37 what apps? Oct 28 15:23:37 <_Monkey> apps are small Oct 28 15:23:57 fuck _Monkey Oct 28 15:24:03 like things depending on perl. Oct 28 15:24:41 that's tricky Oct 28 15:24:54 you really want to use host perl for most stuff Oct 28 15:25:16 so it needs to be figured out when you actually need the target perl Oct 28 15:25:24 perl could be life saving for development Oct 28 15:25:29 indeed. i got it working but it required lots of hacks. Oct 28 15:26:01 with perl and python, no need for sb Oct 28 15:26:19 zoran: eh? Oct 28 15:26:35 it is ascii Oct 28 15:26:57 there is still lots of perl/python modules compiled in c Oct 28 15:27:01 just copy needed libs or modules from desktip Oct 28 15:27:20 suihkulokki, correct Oct 28 15:29:32 getting xs (i.e. compiled) modules working wasn't that hard Oct 28 15:30:27 other apps with unflexible build systems linking against shared perl are hard. Oct 28 15:32:41 vim, for example. Oct 28 15:32:52 ? Oct 28 15:33:36 you already have vi Oct 28 15:34:25 sure, I do. Oct 28 15:34:34 and I want vim with embedded perl. Oct 28 15:34:38 ah Oct 28 15:37:09 and I think I got that now Oct 28 15:37:16 that and vim-gkt Oct 28 15:37:18 *gtk Oct 28 15:47:17 whatś´the secret to getting screen on the n800? Oct 28 15:47:31 bah, silly bt keyboard Oct 28 15:47:55 looks like it requires debconf, but we only get fakedebconf Oct 28 15:47:59 screen for more then one shell? Oct 28 15:48:09 correct Oct 28 15:48:32 does apt-get help? Oct 28 15:48:46 like I said ^ Oct 28 15:50:42 macluvjay, I installed it on 770 with no hiss, but cannot recall deps Oct 28 15:51:24 aww.. die scratchbox! die! Oct 28 15:51:32 buggy python wrapper around chmod :-( Oct 28 15:51:47 bad wizard takes all Oct 28 15:51:57 apt-cache show debconf only returns fakedebconf Oct 28 15:52:36 I took bin file and just followed, what app manager asked Oct 28 15:52:53 macluvjay: screen from where? Oct 28 15:52:55 could be diff for your device Oct 28 15:53:11 oh, nm Oct 28 15:53:22 * sp3000 missed the pre-depends line Oct 28 15:53:24 apt-get install screen returns screen: PreDepends: debconf (>= debconf 0.2.17 Oct 28 15:54:00 do you see it in any rep? Oct 28 15:54:26 oh, actually Oct 28 15:54:27 in the gui application manager and apt-cache search Oct 28 15:54:28 macluvjay: screen from where? Oct 28 15:54:56 ApplicationCatalog2006 has it for sure Oct 28 15:55:52 this is n800 IT2007 Oct 28 15:55:59 4.0.3-0.3osso2 from rmo/bora Pre-Depends: debconf (>= 0.5) | debconf-2.0, the latter of which is provided by fakedebconf Oct 28 15:56:18 which repository, rather Oct 28 15:56:45 hmm, apt-cache show doesnt tell what repo? Oct 28 15:56:58 hey guys Oct 28 15:57:00 apt-cache policy does to some extent Oct 28 15:57:01 I see debconf in repository/maemo.org/pool Oct 28 15:57:09 can we mount webdav shares yet on the n800 Oct 28 15:57:49 4.0.2-5maemo3 from mg.pov.lt would seem to have more demanding predeps Oct 28 15:57:54 * zoran gone to say "hi" to dragons Oct 28 15:57:58 aha! Oct 28 15:58:18 4.0.2-5maemo3 Oct 28 15:58:46 mg.pov.lt bora/user Packages Oct 28 15:59:28 sp3000: what would you suggest? Oct 28 16:00:23 what is the repo for the 4.0.3 you listed? Oct 28 16:00:25 hey pupnik: you around? Oct 28 16:02:24 oh Oct 28 16:03:01 * sp3000 forgets that apt-get policy sucks and apt-get showpkg's version lists that are really local paths express repositories better, ironically Oct 28 16:03:35 macluvjay: well, 4.0.3-0.3osso2(/var/lib/apt/lists/repository.maemo.org_dists_bora_free_binary-armel_Packages) Oct 28 16:04:00 of course that's a repository thatäs "meant to be used with the 'apt-get' tool only within the SDK environment" so go figure Oct 28 16:04:56 per http://repository.maemo.org/#sdk_debian, but then again http://maemo.org/community/wiki/ApplicationRepositories has no such admonishment Oct 28 16:05:06 in the future, this all will make sense! ...right Oct 28 16:10:52 is it just me or is the garage down Oct 28 16:13:07 seems moderately dead yeah Oct 28 16:19:48 why isn't ar available? :-( Oct 28 16:27:17 sp3000: tahnk you so much! Oct 28 16:27:50 amr, seems to be back fwiw Oct 28 16:28:34 It went down last night too, around 1am. Oct 28 16:28:36 1am EST. Oct 28 16:29:56 anyone tried to compile e for n800? Oct 28 16:32:32 wasn't so much down as very slow for me Oct 28 16:38:42 playya: rasterman has scrots on his site about having it running Oct 28 16:38:55 you probably want to speak with him Oct 28 16:39:03 ok Oct 28 16:39:13 i found a video on youtube Oct 28 16:39:28 oh? Oct 28 16:39:32 url Oct 28 16:40:26 what about bnep.ko module for latest n800 firmware ? Oct 28 16:40:40 does it exists ? Oct 28 16:42:46 http://youtube.com/results?search_query=enlightenemnt+n800&search=Search Oct 28 16:44:23 I looked into edje on maemo as well for writing a shiny xmms2 client with it, but I must admin that I still prefer the clutter api. Oct 28 16:51:07 I like the onscreen keyboard, but tttttttthe others I wasnt so impressed with Oct 28 16:51:39 s/with/by/ Oct 28 16:52:48 btw, the new plankton theme is way hot Oct 28 17:31:45 hi hi hi :) Oct 28 17:31:47 hola :) Oct 28 17:34:26 is somebody from Poland?

Oct 28 18:24:05 xq es casi lo mismo q el 800 Oct 28 18:24:07 yo no lo haria Oct 28 18:24:38 mm.. pero el GPS mola tio Oct 28 18:25:17 pero no, creo que tienes razón, mejor me quedo con mi n800 y espero que salga otro con alguna caracterítica que valga la pena Oct 28 18:25:20 si, no te vayas a perder en esa isla tan enorma xDD Oct 28 18:25:41 BlueGene, tu cual quieres pillarte ? Oct 28 18:27:16 Anyone here use Blogger? Oct 28 18:27:30 yes Oct 28 18:27:40 I use blogger Oct 28 18:28:00 celesteh: Think you can try to reproduce my bug on Microb... https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2180 Oct 28 18:28:22 um Oct 28 18:28:30 i need to update my os first Oct 28 18:29:51 lopz yo no tengo un duro Oct 28 18:30:34 xD Oct 28 18:55:13 thememaker is pretty cool Oct 28 18:55:23 its going to take utterly ages to make my theme though Oct 28 18:56:02 amr: Why> Oct 28 18:56:03 ? Oct 28 18:56:34 i have nothing planned and i'm kind of winging it Oct 28 18:56:50 atm its a plankton rip off for the 770 :P Oct 28 18:56:57 well, the colours Oct 28 19:14:04 hi Oct 28 19:24:57 Thumb scrollbar? Oct 28 19:25:00 Interesting .. Oct 28 19:25:29 Where's that? Oct 28 19:25:42 hildon-helper.h Oct 28 19:26:49 I'll have to look into that. Oct 28 19:28:13 Is it new in Chinook? Oct 28 19:28:16 Yes Oct 28 19:28:19 I think so. Oct 28 19:28:28 Though it's not documented. Oct 28 19:28:56 I think it makes up for the functions that are documented that aren't actually in the SDK. Oct 28 19:29:04 Hah. Oct 28 19:29:05 Like Karma .. Oct 28 19:29:15 Karma? What is it supposed to be? Oct 28 19:29:27 A natural order to things :) Oct 28 19:29:46 Well, it's a force that balances good and bad. Oct 28 19:30:07 Oh, I thought you meant that Karma was a function documented in the SDK. Oct 28 19:30:13 Hah Oct 28 19:30:42 hildon_find_toolbar_get_last_index() Oct 28 19:30:44 It would explain people saying "my tablet doesn't like me anymore". Oct 28 19:30:44 That's missing. Oct 28 19:31:18 When I've finished scanning Hildon I'll send a mail with all my complaints to the mailing list ;) Oct 28 19:37:33 hi :) Oct 28 19:37:42 Hello there. Oct 28 19:49:17 alterego: hildon-list, right? :) Oct 28 19:49:45 :) Oct 28 19:55:06 re Oct 28 20:07:13 * zeenix should learnt to read and write his mother tongue so he can do the translation Oct 28 20:15:24 "A child's second language should be a programming language." Oct 28 20:16:06 learning english in current world helps a lot towards that.. at least if you intend to be serious about it Oct 28 20:16:18 yeah i'll change that to third Oct 28 20:16:23 though, for learning basic english all you need is to leave around copies of leisure suit larry Oct 28 20:16:34 hehe Oct 28 20:16:53 infocom taught me typing Oct 28 20:17:14 well - it helped Oct 28 20:23:54 irc!11 Oct 28 20:24:01 ...or ...not. Oct 28 20:42:35 hmm 3430 claims support for 1024x768 displays. This is 2.048 times as large as framebuffer needed for 800x480 Oct 28 20:56:01 http://www.pvr-extremist.com/default.asp#ID634 Games running on PowerVR MBX (omap2420) demoe'd at GDC Expo 2006 Oct 28 21:02:13 http://www.bit-tech.net/news/2005/11/11/q3ce_powervr/ Quake 3 Arena @ 25 fps on Dell Axim X51v with PowerVR MBX Opengl ES 2.0 drivers Oct 28 21:05:02 Have any of you guys on the USA side of things managed to get AT&T to set you up with a halfway decent data plan that works with the N800? :D Oct 28 21:06:06 Rask330: wouldn't that depend on the phone used, too? Oct 28 21:06:18 Probably. Oct 28 21:06:38 I'm just getting a ton of inconsistent responses from their idiot sales department... X) Oct 28 21:06:47 ah, yeah, good luck with that. Oct 28 21:07:26 not that I have experience with AT&T idiocy per se, just with sales departments generally. Oct 28 21:08:09 "Duh, you want to use your phone to download more ringtones?" Oct 28 21:08:35 One rep actually said, in the same call, the following: Oct 28 21:08:49 (1) My phone did, in fact, support use as a bluetooth networking gateway. Oct 28 21:08:59 (2) They didn't have any data plans that were compatible with the phone. Oct 28 21:09:17 (3) They could put a data plan on my phone, but it would cost thousands of dollars because it's a "manufacturer concern". Oct 28 21:09:36 (What a "manufacturer concern" was, they did not say.) Oct 28 21:10:14 One wonders why Motorola would be concerned that someone was using a data-enabled phone for data. Oct 28 21:10:15 US needs europes data plans, and europe needs US's culture of open hotspots Oct 28 21:10:39 data plans in the UK are aweful. Oct 28 21:10:43 The US telecommunications industry needs to pull its head out of its arse... Oct 28 21:11:00 At least they were last time I looked ^_^ Oct 28 21:11:24 I am still amused and disgusted that they charge as much as $0.15 per text message with a straight face. Oct 28 21:11:55 Text messaging hasn't been all that popular in America. Oct 28 21:12:04 Maybe it would be if it wasn't so overpriced... Oct 28 21:12:22 You're using a tiny fraction of the bandwidth needed for a voice call, yet they actually seem to charge more. Oct 28 21:12:29 Well, you can pay twice that for texts in the UK. Oct 28 21:12:48 Almost twice that. Oct 28 21:13:03 I think I get charged 10p per text. Oct 28 21:13:14 in germany i see video calls and television over umts advertised Oct 28 21:13:27 ow Oct 28 21:14:01 television over umts is pretty widespread Oct 28 21:14:42 operators like to have "mobile tv"(even if almost nobody actually watches it).. and thats the current way to deliver it Oct 28 21:27:57 hallo? Oct 28 21:29:06 Hello. Oct 28 21:31:17 new on this channel... Oct 28 21:31:38 going to develop a upnp control point Oct 28 21:31:52 Sounds good to me. Oct 28 21:32:08 after the one offensichtlich nokia is buggy and closed source Oct 28 21:32:21 gui hangs regularily... Oct 28 21:32:34 on n700 at least Oct 28 21:32:40 annoying-... Oct 28 21:33:21 will be here frequently asking questions ;-) Oct 28 21:35:57 checkout http://wap-5000.wikispot.org Oct 28 21:38:00 N700? Oct 28 21:38:02 Is that a tablet> Oct 28 21:39:42 n770, sorry Oct 28 21:39:59 Just 770. It's not in the N series. Oct 28 21:40:03 Ah, the Nokia 770 Oct 28 21:42:14 can anyone tell me if the canola team israelischen going to support external renderers? Oct 28 21:42:34 isrealischen? Oct 28 21:42:50 What's with the strange random words .. Oct 28 21:43:27 i can translate from german if that helps Oct 28 21:43:32 shit... auto-completion of the virtual keyboard... Oct 28 21:43:32 pupnik: plz =) Oct 28 21:43:33 lauti: it's sunday, 18:42 here... were're still working on canola 2 Oct 28 21:43:37 Hah Oct 28 21:43:42 =) Oct 28 21:43:44 lauti: so, we're quite busy :-P Oct 28 21:44:05 lauti: anyway, what does israelischen mean ? Oct 28 21:44:07 It's 21:46 here, and I'm still working on Ruby-Maemo ^_^ Oct 28 21:44:13 * alterego wants a team :) Oct 28 21:44:21 :-D Oct 28 21:44:34 at least we're paid to do so... and it's a good amount :-P Oct 28 21:44:41 Oh thanks. Oct 28 21:44:46 I'll just give up now then shall I :P Oct 28 21:44:51 hahaha Oct 28 21:44:58 maybe a diminuitive israeli girl in lederhosen and pigtails Oct 28 21:45:05 alterego: it was not directed to ya! Oct 28 21:45:12 :) Oct 28 21:45:59 all: israelischen was a typo... the auto-completion placed it next to the spacebar Oct 28 21:46:05 I've got a few more classes to implement (5). Then I can look forward to a few hours of testing. Oct 28 21:46:07 lol Oct 28 21:46:20 i am writing on n770 right now Oct 28 21:46:21 IF the tests go well. I should be able to release some chinook packages tomorrow. Oct 28 21:46:49 alterego: there are some bindings for EFL-Ruby Oct 28 21:46:54 alterego: could you take a look? Oct 28 21:47:02 k-s[WORK], sure. Oct 28 21:47:08 alterego: you could try to rewrite my iphone-like vkbd in ruby! Oct 28 21:47:09 :-) Oct 28 21:47:10 I'll put it on my things to do. Oct 28 21:47:27 then people can write beautiful apps in ruby too Oct 28 21:47:32 k-s[WORK], are you the indt guy that wrote that vkbd in Python then? Oct 28 21:47:37 yep Oct 28 21:47:40 :-) Oct 28 21:47:44 :) Oct 28 21:47:58 anyone here ever used thememaker? Oct 28 21:48:09 k-s: are you from canola team? Oct 28 21:48:17 cmarcelo, MoRpHeUz and Ryback_ are the (un)fortunate to work with me in the canola team Oct 28 21:48:18 k-s[WORK]++ # your edje on maemo stuff Oct 28 21:48:20 I'm just looking forward to getting this release out so I can start developing my own apps. Oct 28 21:48:25 lauti: yes Oct 28 21:49:43 i'm getting a gap on my left border Oct 28 21:49:45 a solid blue line Oct 28 21:49:50 and i can't seem to find where it is Oct 28 21:51:00 anyone will be at ELC-2007/Austria? Oct 28 21:51:19 (from CELF) Oct 28 21:59:23 k-s: so what about controlling external upnp renderers by canola? Oct 28 22:00:31 k-s[WORK]: I'll be there Oct 28 22:02:34 lauti: we want to, as well as a2dp Oct 28 22:02:49 lauti: but I'm not sure if it will be available in this first try Oct 28 22:03:07 lauti: however this release will keep living after it's released Oct 28 22:03:22 lauti: unlike previous version :-P Oct 28 22:03:53 lauti: and it support "options" per-screen, so one can easily write a plugin to support extra output devices Oct 28 22:03:54 k-s: would be cool, this would make it the killer Oct 28 22:04:06 and it will be in python Oct 28 22:04:07 :-) Oct 28 22:04:14 and i could save a lot of time ;-) Oct 28 22:04:26 dev: present something or what? Oct 28 22:06:57 k-s[WORK]: yeah, I'll talk about Coherence Oct 28 22:07:24 k-s: so canola has not yet been released officially? Oct 28 22:08:52 lauti: no, it's beta2 yet Oct 28 22:09:04 lauti: but we aborted that and rewrite it Oct 28 22:09:10 actually, we're still doing Oct 28 22:09:14 C -> Python Oct 28 22:09:16 SDL -> EFL Oct 28 22:09:53 hopefully it will be more powerful yet smaller (code base) Oct 28 22:10:08 i wonder how insecure a bluetooth keyboard would be. is there a way for others to sniff what i'm typing via bluetooth? Oct 28 22:10:23 rafl: bluetooth is usually secure Oct 28 22:10:34 hooray Oct 28 22:10:40 rafl: it operates on a number of channels Oct 28 22:10:49 and change among them very fast Oct 28 22:10:50 <_Monkey> k-s[WORK]: that doesn't look right Oct 28 22:11:11 thus it's hard to snif Oct 28 22:11:23 you'd have to know the next frequency to snif Oct 28 22:11:27 Hi to all ... :) Oct 28 22:11:28 _Monkey: ? Oct 28 22:11:29 <_Monkey> k-s[work]: bugger all, i dunno Oct 28 22:11:49 k-s[WORK]: or sniff them all, it's possible Oct 28 22:12:06 wumpus: but other device may be using the channel at that time Oct 28 22:12:14 just google on bluetooth and security and you'll find some interesting stuff Oct 28 22:12:15 and thus you'd have a hard time doing that Oct 28 22:12:29 they succeeded in hacking some general purpose bluetooth chipset to act as full band sniffer Oct 28 22:12:29 but it's possible, yes... hard to say something is impossible nowadays Oct 28 22:13:02 but that doesn't defeat te encryption of course Oct 28 22:13:09 better ask holtmann when he's online at #bluez Oct 28 22:13:39 I think the host stacks are quite secure, but you can fool some devices in various ways Oct 28 22:14:27 then again, non-bluetooth wireless keyboards are probably even less secure Oct 28 22:14:37 as bt at least enforces some security mechanism Oct 28 22:17:01 bye folks Oct 28 23:07:27 how come when i go to instsall canola it goes all through the process then at the very end i get 'unable to install canola' Oct 28 23:08:04 it still shows up as installed, but has an empty library, and it shows up in my installed apps Oct 28 23:11:54 What does the log say? Oct 28 23:12:20 mentions somethings about dependencies Oct 28 23:12:21 one minute Oct 28 23:14:16 whoops i cleared it Oct 28 23:38:44 Finally got mediaserv working. Oct 28 23:38:49 My movies all work great. Oct 28 23:38:55 None of my TV shows, however. Oct 28 23:41:22 What's the matter with the TV shows? Oct 28 23:41:47 Media player comes up, as usual, but before it plays them, it stops. Oct 28 23:41:57 I can see mencoder working. Oct 28 23:42:03 But it just refuses to play them. Oct 28 23:42:16 The only difference I can see is that they're in a separate directory than the movies. Oct 28 23:42:45 Both in the same data directory. Oct 28 23:52:10 how would you take a screenshot on an n800 Oct 28 23:55:45 I just use VNC. ;) Oct 28 23:55:53 But there are a couple of screenshot tools in the repos. Oct 29 01:24:14 macluvjay: also there's osso-screenshot or something like that. Oct 29 01:24:29 aww.. note to myself: always read the full backlog before replying. Oct 29 01:26:12 thanks, found mh shot tool Oct 29 01:26:20 :) Oct 29 01:27:13 It supports Flickr as well. Oct 29 01:27:37 i noticed but have no acct **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Oct 29 02:59:56 2007
