**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Feb 07 02:59:58 2009 Feb 07 03:06:09 what is it gonna take for ogg to be supported by nit's?? Feb 07 03:07:31 even after loading the ogg.support package, my radio stream does not play :( Feb 07 03:08:40 wscafm.org Feb 07 03:09:49 how many votes does the ogg bug take before it is taken seriously?? Feb 07 03:10:15 What's wrong with 3rd-party support? Feb 07 03:10:30 user123: You could always code it yourself, you know. Feb 07 03:10:36 Heaven forbid. Feb 07 03:10:44 ogg support has already been put together. Feb 07 03:11:58 tell me what has tto be done for that station to work, svp Feb 07 03:19:13 ogg support would be such an easy way to appease the foss crowd ... why not? Feb 07 03:21:01 user123, as usual, blame lawyers. Feb 07 03:21:20 bah! Feb 07 03:21:46 that is such fud, GeneralAntilles Feb 07 03:21:49 user123: mplayer http://74.220.236.214:7000/wsca.ogg Feb 07 03:21:56 user123, no, that's truth. Feb 07 03:22:00 It's the lawyer's fault. Feb 07 03:22:00 works fine here. Feb 07 03:22:08 If it were up to anybody but the lawyers, we'd have ogg support. Feb 07 03:22:12 But it's not, so we don't. Feb 07 03:22:22 mplayer? i'll try and load it Feb 07 03:22:43 3rd-party support works fine, anyway. Feb 07 03:22:48 So it's not worth getting worked up over. Feb 07 03:24:17 ogg is /the/ reason i bought the nit... :( Feb 07 03:25:12 i just bought a sansa clip because the nit was so faulty there Feb 07 03:25:55 ogg player is a strange reason to buy a $400 pocket-laptop. Feb 07 03:26:31 $250 at newegg.. and i bought two! Feb 07 03:26:54 sorry, tigerdirect Feb 07 03:26:59 To listen to an ogg stream with each ear? Feb 07 03:27:28 Anyway, I guess it's good that ogg works just fine, then. Feb 07 03:27:32 one for my housemate... Feb 07 03:27:47 mplayer, and anything that uses mplayer as a backend, handles that stream. Feb 07 03:28:09 kmplayer? Feb 07 03:28:58 Should work, I think. Feb 07 03:29:02 Never used it. Feb 07 03:29:11 rgr Feb 07 03:30:56 stream still opens in regular player, not kmplayer.. Feb 07 03:31:20 So open it in kmplayer instead? Feb 07 03:31:31 so irritating, this should just work! Feb 07 03:31:40 It does. Feb 07 03:31:55 Just type mplayer http://74.220.236.214:7000/wsca.ogg Feb 07 03:32:04 how to open stream in kmplayer? Feb 07 03:32:06 oh Feb 07 03:32:15 IDK, I've never used kmplayer. Feb 07 03:32:35 But open it up, and it should have some "open URL" or some such. Feb 07 03:32:56 have to type a url? damn... Feb 07 03:33:07 no multiwindow Feb 07 03:33:13 copy/paste works, this is not an iphone. ;) Feb 07 03:33:32 no copy in xchat Feb 07 03:34:20 Hmmm.. then xchat is evil. Try bliond keyboard shortcut? Feb 07 03:34:29 s/ion/in/ Feb 07 03:34:29 benson meant: Hmmm.. then xchat is evil. Try blind keyboard shortcut? Feb 07 03:35:13 Or copy it from the station's website. Feb 07 03:35:23 rgr Feb 07 03:37:30 did not work .. error Feb 07 03:38:31 user123: what error? Feb 07 03:38:50 this should just work ... it is a free codec Feb 07 03:39:04 long error.. Feb 07 03:39:35 name media server not found Feb 07 03:39:47 or similar Feb 07 03:40:11 If I had to guess, I'd say a typo in the URL. Feb 07 03:40:33 Definitely doesn't sound like a codec issue. Feb 07 03:40:45 i copied from the web link.. Feb 07 03:41:03 There's copy in XChat Feb 07 03:41:05 on the VKB Feb 07 03:41:17 vkb? Feb 07 03:41:29 oh nm Feb 07 03:41:46 just checked, and I don't even _have_ ogg-support (or whatever) installed. Feb 07 03:41:50 mplayer' Feb 07 03:42:06 s all you need, as expected for a free codec. :) Feb 07 03:42:28 no mplayer in default repo Feb 07 03:42:41 ~extras Feb 07 03:42:42 [extras] http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras Feb 07 03:43:14 Then the url there is probably wrong; try going another layer in. Feb 07 03:43:24 sorry, this is too frustrating Feb 07 03:43:32 IIRC I saw a link to an m3u, which had the name of the stream. Feb 07 03:44:26 thanks for your attention, but i am disappointed with this crap Feb 07 03:44:52 lol Feb 07 03:44:57 Some people are just easily daunted. Feb 07 03:45:38 Why is everything working the same blinking way I do it on my desktop somehow _not_ "just working"??? Feb 07 03:45:50 Hehe Feb 07 03:45:54 Some people. . . . Feb 07 03:46:10 benson: Are you crazy? mplayer's support for Xiph codecs is pretty awful. Feb 07 03:46:39 It works for me. Feb 07 03:46:49 Vorbis is the only one that mostly works. Feb 07 03:47:12 I don't mess with much media of any description, but when I do, mplayer seems fine... Feb 07 03:47:25 Try seeking in a Theora file sometime. Feb 07 03:47:47 * benson wonders if he's ever _seen_ a theora clip. Feb 07 03:48:25 I know the codec's out there, but have made no effort to find some and try it. Feb 07 03:49:30 At any rate, since a vorbis stream was the only thing at issue here, not sure how I'd be "crazy" for thinking it was "just working" in this context. :p Feb 07 03:49:55 It was more the "as expected for a free codec" part. Feb 07 03:50:51 mplayer developers hate Ogg, do not get along with Xiph developers, and don't take our patches. Feb 07 03:50:51 Ah, ok. Again, a response to his allegation that "ogg is a free codec, it should just work", when in fact it was just working (for me). Feb 07 03:51:29 * benson detects blood-feud Feb 07 03:51:33 * benson hides Feb 07 03:52:23 Is there some alternative that plays everything mplayer does, and does Xiph codecs better? Feb 07 03:52:39 If so, I don't mind trying it; I've no dog in this fight. Feb 07 03:52:49 Well, vlc at least accepts patches. Feb 07 03:53:19 And they also play pretty much everything. Feb 07 03:53:21 * benson remembers VLC being the abomination of slowness on his windows machine. Feb 07 03:53:32 Well, you know. Windows. Feb 07 03:53:38 But it may not be as bad on Linux, obviously. Feb 07 03:54:01 Mplayer does do much better on Windows, in my experience. Feb 07 03:54:12 It does better than WMP, as well. Feb 07 03:54:55 Still, performance in ports doesn't mean much to me, so maybe I'll give VLC a shot sometime. Feb 07 03:56:42 YAY! 256 color screen and rxvt now functional! Feb 07 03:57:09 Now I just need a nick-coloring irssi script. Feb 07 05:29:00 interesting thing i found Feb 07 05:29:26 if you use tversity you can view videos on the nx0 series Feb 07 05:29:30 perfectly Feb 07 05:29:50 although tversity is a windows app it has a preference for them Feb 07 05:29:59 it should behave like mdeatomb Feb 07 05:34:48 * pupnik uploads pizza Feb 07 05:36:16 * Shadow__X tries to download pizza getting rst's Feb 07 05:37:51 * b-man is shocked by how good the sw flash effects are on http://www.wipeoutpure.com/ Feb 07 05:42:16 Greeting all! :) Feb 07 05:42:59 morning "_ Feb 07 05:43:12 Hey, super quick. How can I search my tablet for any files that contain the word "UTF" somewhere in it, including all root areas? Feb 07 05:43:41 Just need the command to type here peoples. :) Feb 07 05:43:42 from the command line: find / -name "*UTF*" Feb 07 05:43:52 Excellent! Thank you John! Feb 07 05:44:21 there is also a "search" item on the menu Feb 07 05:44:43 you'll get lots of errors as it strays into /proc though, so you might want to: find / -name "*UTF*" > /home/user/MyDocs/search.txt Feb 07 05:44:46 for later perusal Feb 07 05:45:05 same with /dev Feb 07 05:45:23 air, will search from the menu look in / ? Feb 07 05:45:31 What's the deal with getting an error called "Too many open files"? Feb 07 05:45:42 I'm not running anything besides Xterm at the moment. Feb 07 05:46:20 Oh nuts. You were right on top of that John! Feb 07 05:46:32 That means it went into proc and tried opening all the files iot had open, and then opening all of _them_, and so on, till it maxed out the number of open files permitted. Feb 07 05:46:38 john: never used it but it looks like it will search all files in / Feb 07 05:46:43 s/iot/it Feb 07 05:47:37 Addison, I think it will find what you want anyways, even though it complains Feb 07 05:48:23 good use of sound b-man Feb 07 05:48:31 hey Addison -- missed you last time Feb 07 05:49:00 Hey pupnik! What's up you stupid twat waffle?!!! Good to see you again! :) Feb 07 05:49:28 nice. never been called twat waffle Feb 07 05:49:38 been studying "Yes, Minister" Feb 07 05:49:39 Well, you deserve it. Feb 07 05:50:22 I think the girl said "mini....something else" but you were selectively listening. *lol* Feb 07 05:50:42 Hey, be right back in two minutes. Feb 07 05:50:56 Who's upgraded to the new Canola release? Feb 07 05:52:13 GeneralAntilles: I did, but I don't use it. Feb 07 05:52:24 Much faster. Feb 07 05:52:39 * benson just installed it to get dependencies for some other broken package. Feb 07 05:53:02 can packages be masked so new versions dont show up in application manager? Feb 07 05:54:03 air, not with the Application Manager. Feb 07 05:54:10 i dont want to upgrade carman to 0.7 and cant use update-all with it in the list Feb 07 05:54:28 Why don't you want to upgrade? Feb 07 05:54:47 it doesnt have the scan tool feature that 0.6 has Feb 07 05:55:12 Hey pupnik, last night I finally cracked the whole IBM graphics trouble using Telnet which I posted here... Feb 07 05:55:13 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26637 Feb 07 05:55:18 You interested? Feb 07 05:55:27 air, I'm filling an enhancement. . . . Feb 07 05:55:34 * GeneralAntilles still isn't used to the new Bugzilla layout. Feb 07 05:55:45 You're probably the only one still archiac like me who might appreciate it. Feb 07 05:59:32 Addison: thanks - reading Feb 07 06:00:32 that keyboard layout is sweet Feb 07 06:01:37 Yeah, with that font I get a perfect 80x25 layout. The keyboard takes up the bottom so basically I'm left with an 80x24 which most telnet sites prefer. Feb 07 06:01:41 * b-man sleeps, g'night all Feb 07 06:01:49 See ya b-man. Feb 07 06:01:56 night Feb 07 06:02:27 Hey benson! Never seen you around before. You've posted a few times after me and always wanted to say hi to ya. Feb 07 06:02:39 no time - brain is elsewhere Addison - cheers Feb 07 06:02:57 Okay. Have fun with you and your brain. Feb 07 06:03:02 Hiya! :) Feb 07 06:03:22 I might have time next weekend to chat again pupnik. Feb 07 06:03:36 I can now no longer file bugs on Diablo. . . . Feb 07 06:03:37 So benson, are you old school like me and ArnimS? Feb 07 06:04:11 Old school how? Feb 07 06:04:12 general: why not? Feb 07 06:04:23 No BBS/telnet gaming, etc. Feb 07 06:04:36 But I like Doom II Feb 07 06:04:43 air, installed timeless's improved en_US strings, so most of my strings will no longer match Nokia's. ;) Feb 07 06:04:45 GeneralAntilles, well, at least that's consistently mirroring the policy on fixing bugs for Diablo :) Feb 07 06:04:46 You don't telnet? I thought you did for some reason. Feb 07 06:04:52 johnx, ;) Feb 07 06:05:09 Only for "real work", and more ssh than telnet. Feb 07 06:05:41 Are you in the medical field or am I confusing you with bunason? (sp?) Feb 07 06:05:58 Probably confusing me with bunanson. Feb 07 06:06:05 I'm in engineering. Feb 07 06:06:06 What do you do then? Feb 07 06:06:17 Ooh, must be nice to have a huge brain! Feb 07 06:06:20 Aerospace engineering, grad student. Feb 07 06:06:24 lol Feb 07 06:06:33 air, http://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4081 Feb 07 06:07:00 Only a student, so I'm still working on getting my brain huged. ;) Feb 07 06:07:19 So you're not planning our next trip to mars then? Feb 07 06:07:47 Well, not officially... Feb 07 06:07:59 (Ok, not at all.) Feb 07 06:08:54 If I was an astronaut, I would be so bitter if I got called up for that mission. Basically it would be like, "We've chosen you to die a horrible, searing death for our country. You've made peace with your family members, right?" Feb 07 06:08:58 general: oh nice, thanks Feb 07 06:09:30 ATM I'm wrangling textbooks mostly, but I should be digging in to some serious research over the next few months. Feb 07 06:09:55 Hey benson, what's your take on the whole dark rift thingie coming up in 2012? Is that all just a bunch of superstitious bull honkey? Feb 07 06:10:14 Addison: Maybe I'm young, stupid, and relatively unattached, but I'd _kill_ for that mission. Feb 07 06:11:01 Even knowing that you'd probably would most likely be screaming just before the moment of death? Feb 07 06:11:47 Then again, you might not die. Even probably wouldn't die. Feb 07 06:12:22 And there's all sorts of ways to die, some of them involve screaming (at much lower intensity) for years. Feb 07 06:13:00 You'd have no spine left by the time you reached Mars. Makes it a little tough to ambulate without one. Feb 07 06:13:01 I think most space crashes are likely easier than a lot of old-age/disease type deaths. Feb 07 06:13:43 As for 2012, not sure what dark rift thingie? Feb 07 06:14:52 The dark rift thingie where the sun is in the center of the galaxy, it only occurs every 26 thousand years. Feb 07 06:14:53 (I'd probably put it down in the superstitious bull column though, just guessing.) Feb 07 06:15:07 ?????!!!!!????? Feb 07 06:15:10 The Myans calendar was based on this principle. Feb 07 06:15:19 And it's supposed to happen in 2012? Feb 07 06:15:39 Yeah, you never heard of December 12 (I think), 2012? Feb 07 06:15:57 I heard that back when I was a little newb and it scared the shitters out of me. :( Feb 07 06:16:02 12/12/12? sounds auspicious, but no, I hadn't. Feb 07 06:16:19 I'm kind of sitting here chuckling now that I have. Feb 07 06:16:37 I wouldn't worry about it, but I'm gonna google and search for more details. Feb 07 06:16:57 Whoops, sorry, it's going to happen on the 21st. Feb 07 06:18:47 our sun does not pass through the center of the galaxy Feb 07 06:18:50 http://curious.astro.cornell.edu/question.php?number=686 Feb 07 06:18:59 please filter the bs from the science Feb 07 06:19:07 Passes through the plane of the galaxy, pupnik. Feb 07 06:19:10 oh ok Feb 07 06:19:33 Passing through the center would be cause for alarm, of course. XD Feb 07 06:19:34 astrology then Feb 07 06:20:56 So in a nutshell, should I be hoarding water and defending my home in combat mode that day? :) Feb 07 06:21:00 Addison: I'm more worried about the Prophet getting elected. Feb 07 06:21:14 Who's the Prophet? Feb 07 06:21:30 Oh, definitely, but you should _always_ be hoarding water and defending in combat mode. Feb 07 06:21:45 Heinlein reference. Feb 07 06:22:05 Happens in 2012 Feb 07 06:22:09 Viva la revolution! Feb 07 06:22:13 *lol* Feb 07 06:22:29 Give me a link to Heinlein, yeah? Feb 07 06:22:41 Like got a page or something? Feb 07 06:22:54 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_A._Heinlein Feb 07 06:23:08 You're worried about Bob? *lol* Feb 07 06:23:43 The book that's from would be Methuselah's Children, I think, though I haven't actually read it. Feb 07 06:23:59 (Or whichever one it was.) Feb 07 06:24:12 * benson needs to find more time for reading/listening to SF. Feb 07 06:29:00 I once thought of a great SF movie. It's a guy that built a machine using tachyon energy to send light signals faster than the speed of light to himself. Uses it to win the lottery and crack wallstreet stocks to fund his project even more then presents it all to the government. Feb 07 06:29:21 So far, I've gotten almost the first sentence written... Feb 07 06:29:27 It's "In the beginning...." Feb 07 06:29:32 What do you think of it so far? Feb 07 06:30:01 That's a good start; I think you could have a real best-seller start with that. Feb 07 06:30:33 The way it would have to work is to have two rooms, one to send the signal, the other to receive it. Feb 07 06:31:18 My mind kind of wobbles on how you would send it to yourself though. Because once you received the message, I think you would have to then send that message into the machine to receive it, which you already did. Feb 07 06:31:30 Crap, this is giving me a headache just thinking about it. Feb 07 06:31:33 *lol* Feb 07 06:31:55 Addison, watch 'Primer' :) Feb 07 06:32:01 What's primer? Feb 07 06:32:29 That actually puts me in mind, a bit, of some book I read... only know I can't remember the title, or author. Feb 07 06:32:42 telling you about it would ruin it, but based on what you were just talking about I think you'd like it :) Feb 07 06:33:03 So it's a book john? I really hate books! Feb 07 06:33:11 Can't I just see the movie? Feb 07 06:33:15 He told you to watch it. Feb 07 06:33:16 you're in luck: it's a movie Feb 07 06:33:24 Watching books is quite boring. Feb 07 06:33:54 benson, but it's also easy. I passed quite a few classes in high school through book-brain osmosis Feb 07 06:33:58 It's not the same one I'm thinking of. Feb 07 06:34:05 Ooh, nice! It actually got good reviews as well! Feb 07 06:34:06 http://www.metacritic.com/film/titles/primer?q=the%20primer Feb 07 06:34:14 (Which was a book.) Feb 07 06:34:18 68 is a great, overall score for Metacritic. Feb 07 06:34:35 Addison, do yourself a favor and don't read up too much before watching it. it's better if it's a surprise I think Feb 07 06:35:12 Reading is for retards and small farm animals.... no offense, john. :) Feb 07 06:35:26 I'm part of the I want it all right now generation. Feb 07 06:36:02 which generation is that? Feb 07 06:36:07 If you're a speed reader, you could go through it faster than the movie. :p Feb 07 06:36:16 Like I'm one who will stand in front of a microwave screaming "COME ON!!!!!", "IT'S ALREADY BEEN 27 DAMN SECONDS!" "WHERE'S MY DINNER ALREADY!?!!!!?" Feb 07 06:36:41 Addison: Turn the microwave on; it cooks faster. Feb 07 06:36:52 ++ Feb 07 06:37:24 I never liked you benson. *lol* Feb 07 06:37:52 you walked into that one :) (Also picturing small farm animals reading Heinlein...) Feb 07 06:38:38 Despite "The Primer" not having any scenes of tawdry smut action and is rated pg-13. I think I'll check it out this weekend if I have the time. Feb 07 06:39:37 I'm still wanting to see 4 months, 3 weeks, and 2 days though. I'd like to see what all the hype is over this movie. Feb 07 06:43:36 * johnx is totally out of touch with current movies... Feb 07 06:44:53 I think it was made a year ago, john. It's an independent Russian film on a girl wanting an abortion. Feb 07 06:45:03 I don't think it would be your type of movie. Feb 07 06:45:39 ah. yeah, I'll probably pass Feb 07 06:45:40 Not really one for me either, but the ratings for it were through the roof. And since I'm such a sheep, I'd like to see it. Feb 07 06:46:02 sheep: aren't they small farm animals? :p Feb 07 06:46:17 yeah Feb 07 06:46:22 apparently the welsh are quite partial to them. Feb 07 06:46:24 F ewe, benson! *lol* Feb 07 06:46:50 Sorry, bad joke. Feb 07 06:47:32 I've got issues, but I'm trying to work on them. :) Feb 07 06:47:55 heheh. I'm not Welsh, though. Feb 07 06:48:33 Hey, so does anyone know if there is actually a character table for "UTF-8" encoding on the tablet? I've been looking but I don't think I've found one. Feb 07 06:49:04 I'd like to make a new selection for character encoding using Xterm but I'm not seeing how it's programmed. Feb 07 06:49:13 A character table? Feb 07 06:49:29 Like this one. Feb 07 06:49:29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437 Feb 07 06:49:57 UTF-8 is a way of expressing the whole unicode space. Feb 07 06:50:07 I'd like to have Xterm feature this without having to do the whole Konwert translation on the fly using Telnet. Feb 07 06:50:19 So there's no table involved. Feb 07 06:51:37 Okay, so what if I were to change the Latin (ISO 8859-1) to that table I just showed? What might be my first step? Feb 07 06:51:48 sounds like you need a utf-9 capable terminal like gnome-terminal or urxvt Feb 07 06:52:02 If you can make xterm use raw 8-bit instead of UTF-8, you could use a CP437 font like: Feb 07 06:52:05 s/-9/-8 of course Feb 07 06:52:07 http://dmr.ath.cx/misc/cp437/ Feb 07 06:52:37 * johnx disappears for a bit Feb 07 06:52:48 (I dunno, is our xterm even UTF-8? johnx sounds like it's not.) Feb 07 06:52:52 Xterm doesn't take .pcf or bdf fonts, unless I'm missing something here. Feb 07 06:53:20 Should be able to use X fonts I think. Feb 07 06:53:21 I thought it could only handle .ttf font format. Feb 07 06:53:30 Okay, how so benson? Feb 07 06:53:55 Install them system-wide, and tell xterm to use them :p Feb 07 06:54:15 * benson looks to see if we have system-wide font directory tree... Feb 07 06:54:22 I need something that I can specifically type into Xterm, I don't know any coding. Feb 07 06:55:53 So when you're in Xterm, and you can choose the few limited types of coding, is there a way to overwrite one to basically makes a new type of encoding such as CP437? Feb 07 06:57:42 It's actually not that important. I can already get CP437 encoding now, but I have to use konwert filters. I was thinking if I could hack a current encoding then I would be able to get a better speed on Telnet. Feb 07 06:58:11 It's probably not worth the extra effort though. I just thought it might be a fun challenge to do so. Feb 07 07:00:18 Are you cool with running, say, rxvt, not osso-xterm? Feb 07 07:01:16 Okay, sure. How can I lose? :) Feb 07 07:02:07 Just to let you know though, I can't understand a thing with my tablet. All I'm really good at is math which sometimes helps out on a few posts. Feb 07 07:03:04 I keep thinking that my request is simple. All I would like is for the tablet to be like a little mini PC while on Telnet and nothing else. Feb 07 07:03:39 Well, the trouble is that you don't have a VGA card, with CP437 in ROM, on your tablet. Feb 07 07:03:57 Every time I post a topic on this, all I get is a dim flicker of recognition though. *lol* Feb 07 07:09:34 Hey benson, I think I'm beginning to haze in and out of consciousness. I should call it a night for now. Was part of a pelvic fracture, female hernia, and an acute appendicitus that ruptured today. Need to decompress and drink a few offline. Feb 07 07:09:46 I'll try and be back again next weekend if possible. Feb 07 07:09:51 kk Feb 07 07:09:59 Maybe I'll even have an answer. Feb 07 07:10:04 Great chatting with you though. You were everything cool I thought you would be! :) Feb 07 07:10:10 See ya! Feb 07 07:10:11 This is an interesting problem. ;) Feb 07 07:10:16 see ya Feb 07 07:21:22 craziness Feb 07 07:22:38 telnet Feb 07 07:22:44 * fireun shakes his head and goes to bed Feb 07 08:20:15 "If all government spending were expressed by printing then there would gradually develop in society an irresistible force to reduce it to a level that the people can afford." - pupnik Feb 07 08:34:03 <`0660> did you just quote yourself? :) Feb 07 09:02:14 good $localfuzzytime, everyone Feb 07 09:08:14 GeneralAntilles: the HAM one?

Feb 07 09:48:19 season 8 I think, but anyway, I can't remind details so, just jumping directly to the last season 10 Feb 07 09:48:20 :) Feb 07 10:00:19 hello everybody) Feb 07 10:20:00 morning wazd Feb 07 10:22:11 * Jucato is amazed at the signs of life Feb 07 10:24:48 mornin dead chan Feb 07 10:25:14 * lcuk curses sleeping on a mathematical problem, my dreams are so strange Feb 07 10:26:24 I slept on twitter/identi.ca last night... strange dreams as well Feb 07 10:26:51 of course nothing beats the number of dreams I've had about the n810... Feb 07 10:27:03 is that legal? Feb 07 10:27:18 O.o Feb 07 10:28:22 * lcuk ponders talking it through to see whether he can make sense of it Feb 07 10:28:34 * wazd dreams bout the plane to sleep in that heads from Japan to California :) Feb 07 10:28:52 quick question: is it normal that the N810 doesn't pick up my home wifi immediately, while the laptop has no problems? it some takes a couple of tries... but sometimes instant... Feb 07 10:29:17 Jucato, no problems here, but i use adhoc between all my devices Feb 07 10:29:21 Jucato: there's a scanning interval thing Feb 07 10:29:52 Stskeeps, I set it to never and do it manually Feb 07 10:29:52 but in work the wifi is a bit flaky in the backoffices Feb 07 10:30:10 Jucato: well then it doesnt catch the beacons.. Feb 07 10:30:57 mmmmm beacons Feb 07 10:31:19 Stskeeps, but if I set an interval, will it automatically connect even if I don't want it to? Feb 07 10:31:26 yes Feb 07 10:31:27 lcuk, vacons Feb 07 10:31:43 hmhm, is there a midori package for maemo or just for Mer? Feb 07 10:31:47 check your router doesnt have some odd random low power or hidden setting Feb 07 10:31:55 oh well, I guess I can olways turn it off :) Feb 07 10:32:28 lcuk, no problem with the router. laptop gets the wireless just fine Feb 07 10:33:28 laptop might just store info that the 810 might be throwing away, worth just a quick look around its settings for anything obvious? Feb 07 10:33:43 hm.. ok... Feb 07 10:33:48 what signal strength do you get it at Feb 07 10:33:53 full Feb 07 10:34:06 when connecting Feb 07 10:34:15 are there other hotspots around? Feb 07 10:34:29 but atm I'm a bit far, 2/4 bars Feb 07 10:34:31 nope Feb 07 10:34:56 tis odd then, mine doesnt misfire and fail to see - is the ap set to hidden? Feb 07 10:36:42 hm.. lemme check Feb 07 10:38:40 it isn't Feb 07 10:39:21 oh well,. it's just a random annoyance, not a fatal problem (I hope) Feb 07 10:46:45 * aquatix waves from FOSDEM Feb 07 10:48:14 ooh fosdem :) Feb 07 10:49:35 beer party (99 Feb 07 10:49:46 hehehe Feb 07 10:57:28 wazd: hell yeah Feb 07 10:57:34 aquatix: anything interesting going on there?

Feb 07 11:00:38 right, back to deciphering BME Feb 07 11:01:29 fun Feb 07 11:01:51 well, i have pretty much cracked how to get the status information out Feb 07 11:02:27 bad priorities ;) Feb 07 11:02:49 Jucato: since i only see my fiancée a week a month currently, it does up the priority a bit Feb 07 11:02:56 I have a idea, if I cp -rf / to SD card,then boot from the SD like boot the debian beta, is that a way to clone OS 2008 to SD card? Feb 07 11:02:58 :) Feb 07 11:03:14 dexterk: there's a guide for cloning OS Feb 07 11:03:17 * lcuk wishes he couldv been at fosdem, but it conflicted with getting code finished Feb 07 11:03:20 or use penguinbaits stuff Feb 07 11:03:32 dexterk, that's basically what the cloning scripts do.. but you'll have more success using tar Feb 07 11:03:34 Stskeeps: not just copy ? Feb 07 11:04:10 qwerty12: I really want to try ,lol Feb 07 11:04:36 * qwerty12 doesn't bother with cloning, much more refreshing to mount a stock rootfs on the computer and tar it up and unpack on my partition Feb 07 11:05:26 I am go to try my idea Feb 07 11:05:28 lol Feb 07 11:06:54 ~lart my blitter routine Feb 07 11:06:55 * infobot whips my blitter routine with a wet and grimy noodle just because Feb 07 11:08:04 * wazd wishes he could've been at fosdem, but it conflicted with Russia x( Feb 07 11:08:07 heh Feb 07 11:08:13 BME keeps track of how long time it has been charging Feb 07 11:08:16 cute Feb 07 11:08:39 while looking for the "booting from sd card" instructions, is this setup possible: I'm going to partition the internal 2GB card in to two (mabye 1GB/1GB or 1.5GB/.5GB), keep one of those two as the orignal "Internal Memory Card" (mostly for swap) and boot into the other one (the larger of the two). the external memory will remain for data Feb 07 11:11:05 HAHAHA! it works Feb 07 11:11:07 Jucato: seems fine Feb 07 11:11:30 * lcuk makes it adjust for aspect ratio Feb 07 11:11:43 Meizirkki: thanks Feb 07 11:11:59 wazd: :) Feb 07 11:12:10 wazd: in russia, FOSDEM comes to you? Feb 07 11:12:24 "Why would we want to boot from a flash card? To improve performance (note, this is dependent on the quality of your flash card)." <-- what's the quality of the internal 2G memory? Feb 07 11:23:10 * lcuk smiles like a madman Feb 07 11:24:27 * Jucato wonders if a madman could probably answer his question :) Feb 07 11:24:28 hehe. i got X & touchscreen working Feb 07 11:24:32 slonopotamus: woo Feb 07 11:24:45 * lcuk listens to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6ljFaKRTrI Feb 07 11:24:49 Stskeeps, morning :) Feb 07 11:25:13 This was a triumph. I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS. Feb 07 11:25:15 Stskeeps, that was pretty easy Feb 07 11:25:15 slonopotamus: were you a developer too btw? or just ported Feb 07 11:25:25 It's hard to overstate my satisfaction. Feb 07 11:25:47 lcuk: I almost thought it was a link to "We are the champions" Feb 07 11:25:53 Stskeeps, uh? Feb 07 11:26:00 slonopotamus: as in, do you code C ;) Feb 07 11:26:06 Stskeeps, nope Feb 07 11:26:11 no jucato, just got another piece of the puzzle in palce Feb 07 11:26:14 place Feb 07 11:26:19 slonopotamus: k Feb 07 11:26:22 ah :) Feb 07 11:26:24 * lcuk looks at his points of data Feb 07 11:26:36 Stskeeps, python, java, js, a little bit of perl/bash, but not C Feb 07 11:26:37 * lcuk does a guitar solo Feb 07 11:28:03 penguinbait tool does not work for me, always stop at partion... Feb 07 11:28:23 * slonopotamus can't compile anything in cpp on tablet. it takes tons of ram, slows down and gets rebooted by wd Feb 07 11:28:48 slonopotamus, what you trying to build in c++ - i managed it for a while before the slowness got to me and i went back to c Feb 07 11:29:09 slonopotamus, dunno if these cflags work for g++: http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showpost.php?p=220028&postcount=16 Feb 07 11:29:24 lcuk, i wanted to build slim - tiny login manager Feb 07 11:29:44 Any one at fosdem now ? I selected some conferences : http://www.newlc.com/en/2009-events-fosdem-now-wmc-next Feb 07 11:29:51 slonopotamus, put the cpu into performance mode, compilation of anything is about 5x faster for some reason Feb 07 11:29:57 penguinbait.. sounds familiar... Feb 07 11:30:01 lcuk, i'm in it Feb 07 11:30:18 arghhhhhhh i wanted to be at fosdem :'( but i hadnt finished my code and ive got a family party tonight Feb 07 11:30:23 RzR: you at fosdem?

Feb 07 11:34:28 slonopotamus, eurgh. A reason why I'll never turn to on device compiling :) Feb 07 11:35:03 compile lots of little things and slot them together dynamically :) Feb 07 11:35:05 qwerty12, hehe. you have other problems in sb/qemu Feb 07 11:35:22 True :). I guess that's what sbrsh is there for :) Feb 07 11:36:03 sbrsh - ? Feb 07 11:36:51 Sbox connects to your real arm device and uses the processor of that instead of qemu Feb 07 11:37:05 hmm Feb 07 11:37:25 why this is better than on-device compiling? Feb 07 11:37:45 * lcuk wants a very dynamic webservice offering compilation (and a wiki database for maintaining versions) Feb 07 11:37:49 cos of the cross-compiler :P Feb 07 11:37:55 it's kinda like inverse DISTCC Feb 07 11:38:20 You can also set resource limits :) Feb 07 11:38:25 Stskeeps, uh? i don't understand. who compiles in this setup? Feb 07 11:38:36 slonopotamus: scratchbox compiles, tablet emulates Feb 07 11:38:57 Stskeeps, uh? emulates what? Feb 07 11:39:15 slonopotamus: if the cross-compilation process needs to run a program that was built for armel Feb 07 11:39:20 (happens quite often) Feb 07 11:40:43 Stskeeps, hmm... will you build perl without any modifications to it in such way? Feb 07 11:41:32 slonopotamus: er, rephrase q Feb 07 11:42:05 can you build perl in sb? Feb 07 11:43:20 never tried Feb 07 11:43:30 i don't trust crosscompiler and try to avoid using it as much as possible Feb 07 11:44:05 btw, http://git.pingu.fi/hald-addon-retu-adc.git/ <- battery information Feb 07 11:44:06 i think Feb 07 11:44:17 Stskeeps, try :) if you can't (even with sbrsh), then it's a broken emulator :) Feb 07 11:45:53 * slonopotamus got very weird touchscreen behaviour until put /etc/pointercal calibration data Feb 07 11:45:59 correct Feb 07 11:46:08 look at the nokia-n8x0-pointercal stuff Feb 07 11:46:45 Stskeeps, hehe. i've already wrapped it ito ebuild :) all your bases are belong to us Feb 07 11:46:53 s/ito/into/ Feb 07 11:46:53 slonopotamus meant: Stskeeps, hehe. i've already wrapped it into ebuild :) all your bases are belong to us Feb 07 11:47:08 gotta go, see ya Feb 07 11:48:35 BTW, do an "svn checkout https://garage.maemo.org/svn/dsm -r 151" to see really old dsme from 2006 era before it was cleaned up for opensourcing :) Feb 07 11:48:38 Hi.

Or the equivalent to iwconfig Feb 07 11:49:06 qwerty12: yeah, i know Feb 07 11:49:20 Stskeeps, I wasn't specifically referring to you ;) Feb 07 11:49:40 kaie810: iwconfig should be installed Feb 07 11:50:12 Dont have iwconfig in roots path Feb 07 11:50:37 kaie810, get root access, have extras enabled and apt-get install wireless-tools Feb 07 11:50:39 apt-get install wireless-tools Feb 07 11:51:04 Thanks!

Feb 07 12:56:11 mm Feb 07 13:29:50 Jaffa, yes, the h-a-m one. Feb 07 13:30:18 This just in: There are many racists on YouTube. That is all. Feb 07 13:31:03 sandman, YouTube is the most bizarrely retarded place I've been able to find on the internet. Feb 07 13:31:11 The comments there are otherworldly. Feb 07 13:31:36 Come on, the world's collection of spastics meet at the comments section. You're surprised by racism? Feb 07 13:32:32 If nothing else it's damn impressive. Feb 07 13:33:27 As if somebody distilled all of the internet's idiocy and fed it into the comments.

Feb 07 16:48:54 i just got this secondhand and i guess i got ripped off Feb 07 16:49:46 Did you try another charger? Feb 07 16:49:56 don't have any handy Feb 07 16:50:11 it detects the charger though Feb 07 16:50:33 and it's not just a pin because if i don't plug in the charger to the mains and plug it in to the tablet, it does nothing at all Feb 07 16:50:48 when i plug the charger into the mains and the tablet, it tries to boot but doesn't get anywhere Feb 07 16:51:14 The charger might supply some current, but not enough to charge the battery. Feb 07 16:52:58 my sis has one let's see Feb 07 16:53:04 Is it a AC-3X? Feb 07 16:53:07 lcuk; http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1208523387&ref=name Feb 07 16:53:11 yes Feb 07 16:53:19 From my experience, AC-3x's don't work with the n800 Feb 07 16:53:26 ah no AC-3B Feb 07 16:53:41 4x's & 5x's work fine Feb 07 16:54:00 yep, same thing, just different connector from the UK model (AC-4X) I'd take it Feb 07 16:54:18 yeah i'm in belgium Feb 07 16:54:39 different charger, same issue Feb 07 16:54:50 Stskeeps, I'm studying it and making a list of questions in my head Feb 07 16:55:24 it just wants to boot as soon as i plug it in and then when the nokia logo (blue text, not the hands) appears it just shuts off Feb 07 16:55:28 and i can't turn it on anymore Feb 07 16:56:40 would a busted battery cause that ? Feb 07 16:56:49 A quick question, is it a really dirty hack to make the characters in a game go at twice their speed? I've replaced "characterDesc[actor->character].speed" with "characterDesc[actor->character].speed * 2;" and can't help wondering if it's clean enough :/ Feb 07 16:57:27 i must say the back cover isn't totally flush with the case but it's mere millimeters Feb 07 16:57:39 and when i take the cover off, the battery comes out pretty easily Feb 07 16:57:58 i used to own a 770 and taking out the battery wasn't hard but it never just fell out Feb 07 16:58:08 I've had this problem lots of times (I've bought about 6 chargers in total), and for me it was a charger issue :/ Feb 07 16:58:27 does your battery just fall out as well when you take off the back cover ? Feb 07 16:59:12 Nope, it stays in but this is on a N800 so I don't know if the N810 has a slighly looser mechanism (on the N800, it's tight for sure - I had to use a knife to get my battery out for the first few weeks) Feb 07 17:00:01 * b-man shudders about using a knife on his n800 Feb 07 17:00:24 well this is an N810 and all i can say is compared to the 770 Feb 07 17:00:28 this battery is WAY loose Feb 07 17:02:31 * qwerty12 sends his c-dogs port to the autobuilder. I guess people will have to live with the speed hack :) Feb 07 17:12:01 moo all Feb 07 17:12:10 hi RST38h Feb 07 17:12:14 right, i've been reading about this issue some more Feb 07 17:12:18 seems like it happens a lot Feb 07 17:12:21 and it's not a charger issue Feb 07 17:12:30 http://blog.homac.de/?p=58 Feb 07 17:13:19 I'm pretty sure that's for when your N8x0 doesn't come on at all Feb 07 17:13:36 it will come on briefly and then just power off Feb 07 17:15:38 aha, what battery should be in it ? Feb 07 17:15:44 mine has a BP-4L Feb 07 17:15:57 Holy wow: http://www.amazon.com/Nokia-N810-Portable-Internet-Tablet/dp/B000Y4AH3C/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1234025909&sr=1-5 Feb 07 17:16:00 BP-4L is the standard N810 battery Feb 07 17:16:04 ah ok Feb 07 17:16:05 anyone else experiencing this? http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/5369/dsc03807hb0.jpg Feb 07 17:18:02 http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/gizmodo/2009/02/Isophone-water-calling-concept.jpg Feb 07 17:18:06 Umgh Feb 07 17:19:06 wtf, just get a waterproof phone Feb 07 17:20:22 qwerty: I'm afraid to think about it, but it looks like the virtual reality glasses johnx always wanted, gone terribly wrong Feb 07 17:21:02 hehe Feb 07 17:34:05 elloH Feb 07 17:34:55 right Feb 07 17:35:04 Hello Feb 07 17:35:12 oh internet tablet, why hast thou forsaken meeh ?

Feb 07 17:40:56 I can't even describe how much joy it gives me Feb 07 17:41:10 also, I'm one of the developers, but that shouldn't change what I just said Feb 07 17:42:22 puffandstuff: no, but you can use software acceleration Feb 07 17:43:00 FireFox, Do you know about any X11 implementation wich support graphic HW acceleration using OpenGLES please ? Feb 07 17:44:00 RST38h: definitely =) Feb 07 17:45:05 there are no hw acceleration drivers available that are compatibile with the tablets unfortunately :( - and there is no implimentation for X11 hw acceleration.

Feb 07 17:48:47 you might need to ask lcuk about that; lcuk, you here? :) Feb 07 17:56:38 guys, what charger is the n810 supposed to come with in europe ? Feb 07 17:56:59 My N800, from the UK, came with a AC-4X Feb 07 17:57:21 I have one AC-3B and AC-3X here Feb 07 17:57:44 AC-3 series are useless with the tablets. Get an 4* or a 5* Feb 07 17:59:44 is the thing supposed to charge over USB ?

Feb 07 18:02:38 all i can say is that i got the message to "charge the batter"y while it was supposed to be charging Feb 07 18:02:44 at least it showed it was charging Feb 07 18:02:53 then it got into a boot loop Feb 07 18:03:02 When I was using my AC-3X, it said it was charging and then it went off :) Feb 07 18:03:04 now it just shows the nokia logo and then powers off Feb 07 18:03:23 sounds the same then doesn't it ? Feb 07 18:03:40 Yep, it's what happened to me when I was using a AC-3x - the exact same. Feb 07 18:03:49 motherf* Feb 07 18:07:10 well Feb 07 18:07:18 USB doesn't provide enough to charge and power it, right?

Feb 07 18:59:28 For what language? Feb 07 18:59:42 arabic Feb 07 19:00:19 I think locales-extras has Arabic locales Feb 07 19:01:00 I know there's support for displaying Arabic characters for sure, lemme check locales Feb 07 19:01:12 ok Feb 07 19:01:34 there is support for hebrew, someone specifically worked on it Feb 07 19:01:58 my guess is that arabic will be somewhat similar Feb 07 19:02:08 that meen bidi support is available Feb 07 19:02:13 which is good news Feb 07 19:02:38 but rendering arabic charectures is diffrent from hebrew Feb 07 19:02:54 but it shouldnt be that hard if bidi was supported Feb 07 19:02:59 Can't find Arabic locales for OS2008 :/ Feb 07 19:03:20 seems nobody worked on it yet Feb 07 19:03:39 well i can help in localizing to arabic Feb 07 19:04:06 menues , applications , stuff , keyboard Feb 07 19:04:48 there's http://tyros.leb.net/nokia/n800/ but I don't think that installs locales for the menu :/ Feb 07 19:05:14 * qwerty12_N800 wonders if an Arabic font will work with Urdu well, my parents are always on at me... Feb 07 19:06:34 qwerty: I am sure there is a roman transcription for it, is there? Feb 07 19:07:08 Not sure :/ Feb 07 19:07:09 thats only arabic keyboard , and fonts , for web browsing Feb 07 19:07:38 well i did the first arabic keyboard for android ;) , but i didnt make a wiki age yet Feb 07 19:08:25 with the help from a hebrew guy , have to give the credit , as it was the source from his keyboard Feb 07 19:11:09 hello, is anyone in here using the LCARS theme? I really like it however when using it i am unable to see any text from rtcomm messages. Feb 07 19:11:55 well if there is an interest in doing arabic localiztion , i would be happy to do it Feb 07 19:17:17 If you get the locales for OS2008 (they're scattered around - may be easier to do 'for a in /usr/share/locale/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/*.mo; do msgunfmt $a -o $a.po; done'), you probably can just merge the old ones from locales-extras for those available and maybe translate other strings yourself. Feb 07 19:17:46 qwerty12_N800 where could i download the locals from ? Feb 07 19:18:12 i dont have N800 Feb 07 19:19:37 Hmm, http://repository.maemo.org/pool/diablo/free/ has the en_GB ones for many apps like the desktop, control panel for the latest OS2008 version scattered around (with names like l10n) Feb 07 19:20:24 oks Feb 07 19:20:25 Lamo: the way I read bug 1716 is that the theme could be fixed to alter that text color specifically Feb 07 19:20:59 * sp3000 is a bit uncertain about the comments Feb 07 19:22:03 I think it's a bug in the app itself which expects white everywhere - at least app mgr was fixed to remove the same problem in app mgr Feb 07 19:22:06 qwerty12_N800 hmm , very very confusing to know wich file to wich Feb 07 19:22:16 *which Feb 07 19:22:41 Another carder spam Feb 07 19:22:53 Is anyone buying into these? Feb 07 19:23:37 sp3000, you have a link to that bug with solution? Feb 07 19:24:35 gfather1, a few examples: http://repository.maemo.org/pool/diablo/free/h/hildon-application-manager-l10n-public/ (en_GB locale for the application manager), http://repository.maemo.org/pool/diablo/free/h/hildon-fm-l10n-public/ (file manager locale), http://repository.maemo.org/pool/diablo/free/h/hildon-control-panel-l10n-public/ (control panel) Feb 07 19:25:56 qwerty12_N800 thanks , this should help more Feb 07 19:26:21 and i could edit them easily with text editor , right ? Feb 07 19:26:28 Lamo: I do, since my irc client is friendly enough to linkify "bug 1716" :P Feb 07 19:26:34 https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1716 Feb 07 19:27:11 thank you Feb 07 19:27:16 qwerty12_N800 thanks , last question , how could i test them , is there emulater or someting ? Feb 07 19:27:46 gfather1, yep, they're just plain text files which must be turned into mo files with msgfmt when done. but dedicated editors such as poedit exist Feb 07 19:27:59 yes , i cheked them ,. po files :) Feb 07 19:28:45 gfather1, hmm, there is N8x0 emulatin support in QEMU svn head version but it requires N8x0 to get some required files :/ Feb 07 19:30:01 qwerty12_N800> not with sdk ? Feb 07 19:30:02 strange Feb 07 19:30:53 qwerty12_N800 we have forgoten something , what about the menu layout ? Feb 07 19:31:19 gfather1, hmm, yes actually - publically available strings probably could be tested with sdk but you'll have to install quite a few things as the sdk's gui environment is pretty much lacking Feb 07 19:32:04 qwerty12_N800 u know thats its a rtl language , and the menues shoudl be right to left Feb 07 19:32:20 No idea wrt the menu layout :/, but the menu program & desktop are open source Feb 07 19:32:56 seems i need to do allot of work here Feb 07 19:33:26 It would probably be easier if you had a real device :p Feb 07 19:33:36 thats true :( Feb 07 19:34:11 and i should talk to the dev team to , as if its gonan take allot of time from me , @ least it should be official localization Feb 07 19:34:25 right ?

(the usual svg) Feb 07 20:10:27 lcuk: What? =) I have been away, doing some artwork Feb 07 20:10:43 just up there is a video Feb 07 20:10:52 oh a video Feb 07 20:11:00 * RST38h does not normally watch internet videos Feb 07 20:13:36 lcuk: cool! what is it for? =) Feb 07 20:14:30 its the foundations for my playground :) Feb 07 20:15:14 lcuk: make it an app already =) Feb 07 20:15:36 liqbase is an app already :) Feb 07 20:15:45 the new framework will have liqbase in it as well Feb 07 20:16:54 why are you so concerned about me having a specific single "thing" anyway? i have never had one specific thing that ive wanted to do on a computer, its a multifunction multipurpose device Feb 07 20:17:38 lcuk: not saying it should do a single thing Feb 07 20:17:49 lcuk: saying it should do a limited set of things well Feb 07 20:18:46 like fullscreen kinetic autoscrolling bookreader, fast efficient note taking, the most stable camera app, the nicest playground for messing with stuff, easy to use menus and stuff Feb 07 20:18:55 Meanwhile in .FR: http://www.reuters.com/article/lifestyleMolt/idUSTRE5135E320090204?feedType=RSS&feedName=lifestyleMolt&rpc=22&sp=true Feb 07 20:18:56 it does everything i want it to do at that point. Feb 07 20:19:24 lcuk: you really have to have a single concept to merge all these into an app Feb 07 20:19:43 they are all together and i use it everyday Feb 07 20:19:47 lcuk: for example, a spreadsheet merges several different uses into a single concept Feb 07 20:19:58 concept : usable touch friendly ui Feb 07 20:20:05 with whatever apps i want in it Feb 07 20:20:07 i have mine Feb 07 20:20:15 ui is usually supposed to do something Feb 07 20:20:39 Let us say, you have got an endless desktop with easily zoomable documents on it Feb 07 20:20:42 THAT is a concept Feb 07 20:20:47 ive got it Feb 07 20:20:57 every single note i create endlessly goes on Feb 07 20:21:09 Well, if you work toward creating an app based on this concept alone, that would be wonderful Feb 07 20:21:34 you would get your paint app + book reader + photo taker/viewer Feb 07 20:21:57 But remove everything that does not fit the endless-desktop-with-zoomable-docs Feb 07 20:21:58 http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/liqbase/ Feb 07 20:22:00 download it now Feb 07 20:22:05 Yes, I did Feb 07 20:22:25 then i dont see your point? Feb 07 20:23:08 (note for others reading, thats the older liqbase using the original ui) Feb 07 20:23:09 Well, what I downloaded looked like a technology demo)very good one) Feb 07 20:23:29 yeah, and its incomplete and full of personal compromises Feb 07 20:23:33 Wasn't a complete app though Feb 07 20:23:37 so i have been working towards making it better Feb 07 20:24:13 based on that video, I would say you are working towards experimenting with more concepts Feb 07 20:24:39 that is nice of course, but there is still no complete app based on that endless-desktop thing Feb 07 20:24:48 that video is closer to what i wanted to do originally but couldnt because of technical issues Feb 07 20:25:31 if i had font support (like i have in vb) i wouldv been scaling at the start Feb 07 20:26:15 the calendar principle has been wanted from the start, that was my original intent with the way i store sketches Feb 07 20:26:39 you mean, in a matrix, by day? Feb 07 20:26:48 but i couldnt make it look good with pure white only fixed resolution fonts Feb 07 20:26:53 yeah Feb 07 20:27:07 i want a calendar that i can zoom to quickly and draw on like a real calendar Feb 07 20:27:14 that i can share with tracy Feb 07 20:27:19 and view on my x41 Feb 07 20:28:00 ah Feb 07 20:28:12 btw, casio also uses a calendar view in its cameras Feb 07 20:28:22 i dont want an icon of a calendar, and i dont want text written under each day - i want to be able to mark a day with a red X or something if i desire Feb 07 20:28:49 obviously typed cal entries are useful as well Feb 07 20:29:17 but thats not in my head, other people will be able to help with that part if they want it Feb 07 20:30:15 the modules in current liqbase are very modular already, but they suffer from a massive codebase. now that i have dynamic module support its easier for a person to get involved or make their own Feb 07 20:30:42 (or for me to just create as many as i want on a whim without setting up tonnes of dev env) Feb 07 20:32:57 liqbase will become emacs :) Feb 07 20:33:04 no it wont Feb 07 20:33:08 thats what i stopped Feb 07 20:33:10 not until he bolts lisp on top Feb 07 20:33:11 it will boil coffee, wash the car :) Feb 07 20:33:33 but I have heard lcuk is already working in this direction ;) Feb 07 20:33:57 RST38h, lisp is ugly, it will be basic :P Feb 07 20:34:13 lcuk: I think it would be better to have separate apps for sketching, calendar and so on Feb 07 20:35:01 wazd :) its all sketching Feb 07 20:35:08 the calendar is part of it Feb 07 20:35:11 wazd: By calendar he means the calendar-based top view Feb 07 20:35:17 agreed the book reader isnt Feb 07 20:35:30 wad: it is actually useful to organize sketches by date Feb 07 20:35:44 lcuk: Actually, book (document) reader is well inside the concept Feb 07 20:35:55 RST38h, no, wazd is right, i also want to be able to mark on something for next month and see what tracy is doing etc Feb 07 20:36:00 lcuk: You load documents, read them, an dsketch on top of them Feb 07 20:36:23 lcuk: it would be an excellent app, if it were complete Feb 07 20:36:29 but havign a dynamic front end is best where the user can choose how their playground looks Feb 07 20:36:49 so if they dont want the book reading or the calendar it doesnt have to be there Feb 07 20:37:03 and if someone comes up with something else it can be added easily Feb 07 20:38:39 * RST38h wonders if he can manage to make emulator quit when ti85 bios tells cpu to shut down Feb 07 20:48:57 hi Feb 07 20:49:32 * timelE61i wonders if people have tried the english package Feb 07 20:51:25 lcuk: where is the video ? Feb 07 20:52:33 lcuk? Feb 07 20:52:40 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMXp0Dg_UaY Feb 07 20:52:42 I got a rfe for liqbase Feb 07 20:52:49 rfe? Feb 07 20:52:58 The pen width needs to be customizable Feb 07 20:53:35 Oh, and there was something else too Feb 07 20:53:57 theres about a billion things, send me a patch and ill integrate it :P Feb 07 20:54:00 Oh yes, the reader needs some encoding support Feb 07 20:54:04 i know about the pen thing Feb 07 20:54:14 It ruined my french licenses Feb 07 20:54:34 no it doesnt timelE61i :) what the reader needs is a documented API so other people can add formats as required Feb 07 20:54:52 THAT is on the roadmap for the reader, i cant do everything :) Feb 07 20:55:03 As long as it includes those by default :) Feb 07 20:55:10 lcuk: hehe, cool Feb 07 20:55:21 yes the pen width is the last thing i need before i can do the next thing Feb 07 20:55:55 my young customer will be happy Feb 07 20:56:04 She said sketch was better ;-) Feb 07 20:56:05 my young customer is already happy Feb 07 20:56:05 gotta try it Feb 07 20:56:25 * timelE61i sighs Feb 07 20:56:31 the biggest drawing requests ive had are more connected single page, pen width and a bloody eraser Feb 07 20:56:36 though I've already given up on trying to use electronic devices for note taking and etc. Feb 07 20:57:00 * timelE61i has bugs for maemo mine+drac+traffic too Feb 07 20:57:03 in fact it's very intersting to see how two radicaly different apps can live together within one platform :) Feb 07 20:57:12 lfelipe, i use it for fragments not whole paragraphs - its like a postit but quick enough to do many Feb 07 20:57:30 oj, also.. Feb 07 20:57:31 lcuk: yes, but do you eventually get around to doing anything with them later ? Feb 07 20:57:34 I mean Feb 07 20:57:42 don't they just get lost afterwards ? Feb 07 20:57:49 I couldn't figure out what to do when it asked me for my name Feb 07 20:57:53 no, i have the very first note i took with it Feb 07 20:57:57 liqbase strives total customizability and multi-functionality. OMW strives consistency and to do one thing well :) Feb 07 20:58:01 i can scroll back to the very start Feb 07 20:58:15 And i .. Why are sketches and photos distinct? Feb 07 20:58:19 * lfelipe has never been able to use any planner/calendar/etc. Feb 07 20:58:30 timelE61i, :) they wont be for long Feb 07 20:59:08 the calendar widget preview in the video is how i want it - natural looking and me and the missus know what a red star in the corner of a day means Feb 07 20:59:33 they all eventually become like blackholes Feb 07 20:59:52 everything goes in, nothing comes out Feb 07 20:59:53 :P Feb 07 20:59:53 not at all, i can see the little men drawn on my calendar here Feb 07 21:00:17 i would know if something is on a day just like when i look at my paper calendar on the wall i know if something is wrote on a day Feb 07 21:00:24 i might not be able to read it until i move closer Feb 07 21:00:29 but i know its there at a glance Feb 07 21:00:47 lcuk: but that's my problem, I don't look Feb 07 21:01:09 I mean, I jot down notes and stuff, but I never remember to go and look "hey, do I've anything to do today?" Feb 07 21:01:23 hey, anyone knows who runs planet.maemo ? Feb 07 21:01:44 um, a fleet of emergency vehicles just went by Feb 07 21:02:03 lfelipe, think it's X-Fade Feb 07 21:02:05 LfelipE: bugs.maemo.org Feb 07 21:02:52 I posted about canola's new release yesterday, but it hasn't appeared so far Feb 07 21:02:53 timelE61i, hows fosdem goin btw Feb 07 21:02:59 dunno if it's just a natural lag or something Feb 07 21:03:38 bleh, already know why Feb 07 21:03:41 wrong category Feb 07 21:03:57 oK Feb 07 21:04:14 first rule of bug hunting: blame yourself Feb 07 21:04:45 timelE61i, are you at the meal yet? Feb 07 21:04:53 no Feb 07 21:04:58 mavhc: or blame someone else and then secretly check to see if it's not you :P Feb 07 21:05:00 I'm heading downtown now Feb 07 21:05:00 mavhc, thats the last rule once all others have been exhausted Feb 07 21:05:12 Not sure if i'll go to maemo or mozilla Feb 07 21:05:13 did anything exciting happen in daytime then? Feb 07 21:05:38 I did end up finding a bug in the OS's printed documentation once Feb 07 21:05:49 not much... I spoke to a few people and mostly listened to the moz stuff Feb 07 21:06:20 cool Feb 07 21:06:41 hrm Feb 07 21:06:52 I think i need to kick someone Feb 07 21:06:56 Possibly me Feb 07 21:07:15 heh why now Feb 07 21:08:07 I think in my localization if you aren't connected and tap the connectivity icon it shows "(none)" Feb 07 21:08:30 yep Feb 07 21:09:19 it should probably say (no connection) - ? Feb 07 21:09:25 Opinions? Feb 07 21:10:00 lol i think you should have a straw poll at the dinner table tonight :D Feb 07 21:10:19 the label should say (stop working and have fun at the fosdem/maemo dinner) :P Feb 07 21:10:24 * qwerty12_N800 likes "not connected", dunno if correct Feb 07 21:10:45 * lcuk has never clicked the connectivity icon Feb 07 21:13:48 I don't like "Not connected" because it could be the name of a wifi network Feb 07 21:14:11 * timelE61i should name one that @work Feb 07 21:14:17 and yes, i know ()s are fair game too, but... Feb 07 21:17:12 hehe, i'm building a webpage on my ftp site :) http://www.bman.maemobox.org/ Feb 07 21:43:51 * daperl wondering if pidgin is working Feb 07 21:47:30 Broadband Cut Entirely From Stimulus Bill Feb 07 21:47:32 Ehehe Feb 07 21:47:46 daperl, get a real irc client :) Feb 07 21:48:11 the internet is full of communists, p2per and open sourcers, never made anyone any money Feb 07 21:48:41 you mean, you can't drill it for oil? Feb 07 21:49:15 mavhc: i'm a combination of those and i make money;) Feb 07 21:49:35 pfft, statistical anomoly Feb 07 21:50:04 qwerty12_N800, i just switched back to my n800, but maybe i'll try pidgin again Feb 07 21:50:12 I do find it hilarious seeing the politicians with big printed cards, don't they have a projector and a laptop? Feb 07 21:50:30 Sts: You are Dutch. Thus, not being classified as "anyone" Feb 07 21:50:45 i am not dutch! Feb 07 21:50:50 haha Feb 07 21:51:05 Sts: Remember, for those guys the world ends at the US maritime borders. Feb 07 21:51:12 i'm danish. :P Feb 07 21:51:19 lol Feb 07 21:51:29 we don't allow nearly as much weed Feb 07 21:51:37 you're food Feb 07 21:51:52 Sts: See? Americans can't even tell your nationality correctly! Feb 07 21:52:00 XD Feb 07 21:52:01 daperl, heh, could never get to grips with pidgin but I have a thing for xchat in windows, tablet & in ubuntu :) Feb 07 21:52:09 * RST38h smirks Feb 07 21:53:58 qwerty12_N800, i'm happy w/ konversation on my kubuntu machine, thanks for the ubuntu/x-chat tip Feb 07 21:54:11 ok, sleep time Feb 07 21:54:38 daperl, hehe, I hate kde too but i won't go into it :D Feb 07 21:56:00 which kde? :) i use a 3 and a 4 Feb 07 21:56:23 Stskeeps, pronouncing "mer" is fucking horrid Feb 07 21:56:41 "meer" "mere" "moar" Feb 07 21:57:17 daperl, Kde 4 mainly :). Kde 3 worked & was a lot more stable for me but it just seems "too much" for me tbh :) Feb 07 21:57:38 What's the meaning of Mer btw? Maemo Extreme Revolution? Feb 07 22:01:18 qwerty12_N800, i'm trying to be agnostic, but ubuntu can be frustrating, i'm gonna give kde 4.2 a try soon, but generally i have few complaints Feb 07 22:03:58 yeah, I'm not really a fan of nautilus I must admit. And I do find if I have an sftp session via gnome-vfs open and the connection has messed up, I find starting things like gedit takes ages until I remember and open nautilus to unmount the session. Feb 07 22:08:06 qwerty12_N800, maybe since i've been using vi for 23+ years i don't notice WM-based tools much Feb 07 22:08:56 just give me a browser and a terminal... and xchat? Feb 07 22:10:10 WM's are a tool that allows you to have lots of xterms open. Feb 07 22:10:49 Heh, a long time. I keep promising myself that I'm gonna run vimtutor but I never do so I know the rudimentary vi stuff Feb 07 22:11:06 xterm in xterm... in xterm Feb 07 22:11:09 s/know/only know Feb 07 22:11:26 strictly speaking you don't need wm for that. you can always ask your terminal emulator to open its window at given coordinates. Feb 07 22:11:48 wnd: Tabs. Feb 07 22:12:04 And multiple desktops. Feb 07 22:12:18 and ponies. Feb 07 22:12:28 at least when I'm coding I want to see all related terminals at once Feb 07 22:12:38 right now I only have three, but sometimes there are more Feb 07 22:12:53 yeah, i usually have 6 tabs going; 3 per side-by-side window Feb 07 22:13:45 three rxvts side-by-side, and vim is usually split into two windows Feb 07 22:13:54 separate desktops are for separate tasks Feb 07 22:14:33 and thus I'd rather call those things "workspaces" Feb 07 22:14:52 I have 27 tabs open rigt now, on just this desktop. Feb 07 22:15:10 boom! Feb 07 22:15:29 how can you find the one you need?-) Feb 07 22:15:52 i only know 26 words Feb 07 22:15:54 I often see people swapping between tens and tens of tabs (or windows), looking for "that one" Feb 07 22:17:22 how can i switch my nn from one xchat to another? Feb 07 22:18:34 NICK daperl Feb 07 22:19:51 * daperl_ is trying to be daperl Feb 07 22:20:00 /nick daperl Feb 07 22:20:32 i tried that, i also logged out of the other xchat Feb 07 22:22:04 I don't know about freenode but some networks reserve nicks for a few moments. if you can't change nick right now (as in server says it's not available), try again later. Feb 07 22:22:29 hmm, odd, should work. maybe nickserv wants you to /id due to it being registered. Feb 07 22:22:31 I mean reserves the nick after the user quits Feb 07 22:23:37 i think all is cool now, i had to leave the unreg channel Feb 07 22:30:40 qwerty12_N800: you there? Feb 07 22:34:49 qwerty12_N800: is anyone smoothly running diablo with a Mer or NITdroid kernel? Feb 07 22:35:38 s/qwerty12_N800// Feb 07 22:35:39 daperl meant: : is anyone smoothly running diablo with a Mer or NITdroid kernel? Feb 07 22:39:07 daperl, hmm, mer uses the same kernel as diablo currently . I've booted into Maemo with the same kernel version nitdroid uses & config file (I just changed root to 1f03 in cmdline). was a little bit more slower & I had no wireless (I didn't get round to compiling stlc45xx against that kernel). Dunno if I could have booted into Maemo with an android patched kernel because I think the touchscreen in Maemo wasn't working with android Feb 07 22:39:07 modifications Feb 07 22:42:14 thanks Feb 07 22:46:02 qwerty12_N800: i don't know how to paste urls, but have you seen this: http://guug.org/nit/nitboot/ ? Feb 07 22:47:37 yep :), I stole it and packaged it for Mer Feb 07 22:49:38 qwerty12_N800: that means (from above) that Mer uses something like 2.6.21? Feb 07 22:49:55 does the wifi stuff in there not work? Feb 07 22:50:47 Corsac, yep, for N8x0 Mer is still currently stuck on 2.6.21. think Stskeeps wants to change that. Feb 07 22:50:53 daperl, wifi on mer work but after a while it stops working.. Feb 07 22:51:02 or you didn't try solca's pre-compiled kernel? Feb 07 22:51:17 daperl, above 2.6.21, you have to use the stlc45xx open source driver Feb 07 22:51:57 gotcha Feb 07 22:52:17 For 2.6.21, you can just insert the open cx3110x and it's closed umac module and be happy :) Feb 07 22:52:49 yeah basically I bought mine because I wanted to hack some Mobile IPv6 on it Feb 07 22:53:00 (since I made that back to n770 ages) Feb 07 22:53:58 I know one guy recently here compiled 2.6.21 with mipv6 :) Feb 07 22:54:53 qwerty12_N800: when compiling the kernel, lying about the version won't do it? bad symbol mojo? Feb 07 22:57:52 daperl, no idea actually :/. I know when I compiled 2.6.21 with preempting, cx3110x didn't wanna load so I did version trickery there and it loaded under my preempt kernel fine. But that was on 2.6.21 still :/. cx3110x can be recompiled, it's just a question of whether it will do so successfully against a new kernel & if umac.ko will still wanna load Feb 07 23:01:11 qwerty12_N800: version trickery? hexedit on the .ko or a Makefile edit? Feb 07 23:01:52 qwerty12_N800: PM me your phone number Feb 07 23:03:15 daperl, I modified the kernel, not the module. some version script in the kernel scripts folder so it wouldn't add the PREEMPT tag into the version of the kernel so the module thought it was running under a standard kernel Feb 07 23:03:22 crashanddie, k, wait Feb 07 23:03:58 thanks Feb 07 23:13:53 qwerty12_N800, is there a way to list all the packages i have installed with apt-get? Feb 07 23:14:57 dpkg will tell you, lemme dig up the command Feb 07 23:15:19 ta Feb 07 23:15:49 i might as well document what ive installed to make my tablet a devenv :) Feb 07 23:16:18 dpkg -l Feb 07 23:16:24 dpkg -l :) Feb 07 23:16:35 dpkg is obscure Feb 07 23:17:01 problem is dpkg will also list all his porn aps Feb 07 23:17:03 apps** Feb 07 23:17:14 this is obscene Feb 07 23:17:43 you must be new her Feb 07 23:17:48 s/her/here/ Feb 07 23:17:50 crashanddie meant: you must be new here Feb 07 23:17:57 hot-babe is not porn Feb 07 23:18:07 its an amusing cpu process meter ;) Feb 07 23:18:07 naughty-northener 0.1 Feb 07 23:18:48 crashanddie: me? Feb 07 23:18:59 dpkg -l | awk '{print $2}' if you don't want the other crap Feb 07 23:19:02 oh no: Connection to Mibbit was lost. Feb 07 23:19:23 lol... qwerty discovered the command line :) Feb 07 23:19:41 :p Feb 07 23:20:48 i cant find out what was installed by date can i? Feb 07 23:21:01 cos it looks like the info is just these are installed Feb 07 23:21:15 or whether it was manually requested or something? Feb 07 23:21:34 Corsac: if you didn't recognise the "you must be new here" line, then yeah, you must be new :P Feb 07 23:22:05 yeah I'm quite new :) Feb 07 23:22:11 but I know my dpkg Feb 07 23:22:30 lcuk, a dirty method is to check the date of the /var/lib/dpkg/info/.list. dunno if there's a better way Feb 07 23:22:54 there's /var/log/dpkg.log Feb 07 23:23:01 was just there seb, looks like its in order - at least all the skype stuff is there Feb 07 23:23:09 but basically it gets rotated once in a while Feb 07 23:23:21 and the things are in recognisable blocks - ie i know i installed "blah" and "blah" Feb 07 23:23:34 Corsac, not on the tablet Feb 07 23:23:53 good point Feb 07 23:25:35 perfect! Feb 07 23:25:43 i can see to the minute when i installed things Feb 07 23:26:02 brb Feb 07 23:29:31 lcuk, the "pretty" way: ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list | awk '{print $6 " "$7" "$8}' | sed s/.list// | sort Feb 07 23:31:09 ls -lrt Feb 07 23:31:31 im happier reading it from gui :) Feb 07 23:31:38 thanks though Feb 07 23:31:52 * lcuk would blow his machine up if he had to use the command line for everything Feb 07 23:32:38 lcuk: reflashed and SSH ready to go, awaiting your commands guv :) Feb 07 23:34:23 lcuk, finally watched your liqbase 4 video, it's looking good :D Feb 07 23:35:15 * thopiekar_N800 is away: Feb 07 23:38:34 crashanddie, got what i think is the conclusive extensive list of installs Feb 07 23:38:50 its like reading my sketches, i know exactly what i was thinking when i installed x package Feb 07 23:40:00 a few of what im gonna list are automatically installed as part of others, but on the whole this looks to be all the deps Feb 07 23:41:56 do I need to enable another repo than extras-devel for build-essential? Feb 07 23:42:11 yep, the sdk repo Feb 07 23:43:05 url? Feb 07 23:43:28 crashanddie, https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3405#c6 Feb 07 23:45:05 Bleh, I want an RX-51 announcement.

Feb 07 23:54:54 crashanddie: I really hope so) Feb 07 23:55:03 Yeah, wazd, your voice synthesis sucks. :P Feb 07 23:55:34 wazd: "fanny" quite disqualifies "homosexual" when used in the same sentence as "bollocks", just saying :) Feb 07 23:55:47 Ha Feb 07 23:55:49 So he wishes Feb 07 23:56:36 GeneralAntilles: my voice synthesis maybe sucks, but my gay alert not :D Feb 07 23:56:39 GeneralAntilles: now now Ryan, don't tell me I have to re-explain flowers and butterflies again to you Feb 08 00:01:17 I wonder when the Fremantle stars are actually gonna get the support. Feb 08 00:09:44 GeneralAntilles: And what support would it be :) Feb 08 00:10:33 wazd, http://maemo.org/news/announcements/0eb8fdfeedec11ddb28e1b3c4d7b308a308a/ Feb 08 00:11:20 GeneralAntilles: yes, but will there be some wise guy that will consult bout Clutter for example Feb 08 00:11:37 wazd, I don't know. Feb 08 00:12:04 GeneralAntilles: that's the question :) Feb 08 00:12:29 wazd, well, my recommendation, if that's what you need, ask. Feb 08 00:13:37 GeneralAntilles: since our applet is tied with desktop - first of all we need to see the desktop itself :) Feb 08 00:13:50 Hehe, well, beta SDK. ;) Feb 08 00:13:51 GeneralAntilles: so we're just waiting for UI release Feb 08 00:14:50 GeneralAntilles: and I'm playing with layouts to have things ready asap Feb 08 00:15:57 we really want OMW to be such "must see" app as Canola for example Feb 08 00:16:11 Well, at least maemo-barcode got a shoutout in the comments. Feb 08 00:21:05 omw? Feb 08 00:21:08 the weather app? Feb 08 00:26:11 crashanddie: yep Feb 08 00:26:59 no offense... but I mean... I don't regard a weather app as being as important as say, a media player Feb 08 00:27:22 a good media player can change my mood, a weather app is just going to ruin it (I live in England) Feb 08 00:27:27 "shit, rain again" Feb 08 00:27:57 Well, they didn't ask you, crashanddie. :P Feb 08 00:28:12 well Feb 08 00:28:38 I'm just giving my opinion as to someone just even thinking a weather app could ever be a "must see" Feb 08 00:29:04 but wazds mockup looks nice :) Feb 08 00:29:05 Eh, it's one of the most downloaded things in Maemo Feb 08 00:29:11 So, um, clearly not everybody shares your opinion. Feb 08 00:29:19 did I say so? Feb 08 00:29:32 that's why my opinion is mine Feb 08 00:29:41 there aren't many like it, and that's why this one is mine Feb 08 00:29:59 :D Feb 08 00:30:04 On that note, rm_you, we need a stats-boosting release. . . . Feb 08 00:30:15 Broke 50k, though, nice. Feb 08 00:31:54 do update downloads count in the stats? Feb 08 00:32:00 i thought it was raw installs only? Feb 08 00:32:06 OMW is 2k downloads behind Canola :) Feb 08 00:32:23 OMW? Feb 08 00:32:29 OMWeather Feb 08 00:32:33 GeneralAntilles: This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My opinion is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my opinion is useless. Without my opinion I am useless. I must speak my opinion true. I must think straighter than my enemy, who is trying to kill me. I must speak to him before he speaks to me. I will. Before God I swear this creed: my opi Feb 08 00:32:34 ok Feb 08 00:32:39 wazd, I don't think that acronym has caught on yet. :P Feb 08 00:32:52 GeneralAntilles, ^^ is that what happens? Feb 08 00:33:04 How can I teach infobot something?) Feb 08 00:33:05 crashanddie, sorry, you got cut off there at the end. :P Feb 08 00:33:07 a patch update on a machine gets counted in download stats? Feb 08 00:33:26 crashanddie: this is not international politics ;) Feb 08 00:33:30 ~OMW is OMWeather, a weather applet for Maemo Feb 08 00:33:31 ...but omw is already something else... Feb 08 00:33:37 ~omw Feb 08 00:33:38 from memory, omw is "on my way" Feb 08 00:33:42 lol Feb 08 00:33:47 good definition Feb 08 00:33:56 t_s_o, Full Metal Jacket. :P Feb 08 00:34:06 GeneralAntilles: i very much know so Feb 08 00:34:09 ~burn himself Feb 08 00:34:10 * infobot pours gasoline all over himself, ignites the fire, and then enjoys some toasty marshmallows with the glorious blaze Feb 08 00:34:14 >:( Feb 08 00:34:22 t_s_o, by the way, where does your new avatar come from? Feb 08 00:34:24 one hell of a movie, i wonder when a similar one will be made about afghanistan or iraq Feb 08 00:34:30 ~no OMW is OMWeather, a weather applet for Maemo Feb 08 00:34:31 okay, GeneralAntilles Feb 08 00:34:36 t_s_o: I hope never Feb 08 00:34:36 yanked it from somewhere ;) Feb 08 00:34:42 t_s_o: sequels always suck Feb 08 00:35:02 t_s_o, Jarhead is "similar" but Iraq/Afghanistan is hardly a comparable war. Feb 08 00:35:10 I was going to say that Feb 08 00:35:13 Thanks General and infobot :) Feb 08 00:35:25 true, its not the same "mindgrinder" Feb 08 00:36:25 t_s_o, big damn secret then, eh? :P Feb 08 00:36:34 ? Feb 08 00:37:34 t_s_o, avatar. Sorry. ;) Feb 08 00:37:50 pic? Feb 08 00:39:00 http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/member.php?u=8557 Feb 08 00:40:45 People spazzing out about the N810's USB port are silly. Feb 08 00:40:54 what's their issue? Feb 08 00:40:55 Like it's some proprietary port Nokia came up with out of the blue. Feb 08 00:41:12 well Feb 08 00:41:20 you have to understand though Feb 08 00:41:27 that the micro-usb port is pretty much un-used Feb 08 00:41:37 crashanddie, once upon a time, MiniUSB was pretty much unused too. Feb 08 00:41:44 microUSB cables aren't as easy to find, but at least they're standard Feb 08 00:41:45 of all the blackberries, only the blackberry storm uses it, and that's a shit phone Feb 08 00:42:08 iirc, it was a very recent addition to the usb spec when nokia started using it... Feb 08 00:42:15 huzzah! im top rated science and technology on youtube today :D http://www.youtube.com/browse?t=t&p=2&s=tr&c=28&l= Feb 08 00:42:34 now its some kind of agreement between the mobile companies to use it as a standardized data/charger port... Feb 08 00:42:59 what cpu/screen does the storm have Feb 08 00:43:04 is it hackable hardware? Feb 08 00:43:14 lcuk: no, it's shit Feb 08 00:43:29 MicroUSB is smaller and more durable. Feb 08 00:43:36 more durable? Feb 08 00:43:48 crashanddie, by about a factor of 10 Feb 08 00:43:56 how so, in particular? Feb 08 00:44:14 The failure point for MicroUSB will be the cable, not the port. Feb 08 00:44:15 and smaller, excuse me, but where you can fit a 3.5mm jack port, you can fit a mini-usb Feb 08 00:44:25 I'm not saying I don't like micro-usb Feb 08 00:44:38 crashanddie, smaller means there's more room for other things. Feb 08 00:44:39 I'm just saying, I'll be happy when everybody settles for one single standard Feb 08 00:44:39 GA: I can see that Feb 08 00:44:54 crashanddie: at least they didn't pick mini-A :S Feb 08 00:45:27 A MiniAB port would've been nice Feb 08 00:45:32 Host without having to hack up cables. Feb 08 00:45:52 GeneralAntilles: I'm looking at the micro-usb and mini-usb at the same time Feb 08 00:45:54 how does the host-detection work, anyways? Is it the fifth pin? Feb 08 00:46:11 GeneralAntilles: they're as wide, and height is maybe .3mm difference Feb 08 00:46:36 jaem, whether the 5th pin is grounded or floating. Feb 08 00:46:40 crashanddie, http://www.intomobile.com/2007/05/27/picture-mini-vs-micro-usb.html Feb 08 00:46:47 It's about a 50% difference all told. Feb 08 00:46:49 GA: thanks, that makes sense Feb 08 00:47:03 Which when you're talking about tiny mobile devices, is a lot. Feb 08 00:47:33 GeneralAntilles: I'm talking about the "on device" size, connector might be smaller, but I'm just saying what I see Feb 08 00:47:54 crashanddie, did you take two devices apart to compare on the inside, too? :) Feb 08 00:48:07 GeneralAntilles: as a matter of fact, I have Feb 08 00:48:12 well, not right now Feb 08 00:48:31 but in the past, I have, never noticed any difference in the USB modules Feb 08 00:51:15 In general, people should try to be less reactionary. Feb 08 00:51:34 how so? Feb 08 00:52:15 "Oh god! Nokia's using a proprietary port!!! I"M GOING TO LOSE MY HEAD!!!" Feb 08 00:52:46 allow me to repeat myself Feb 08 00:52:49 ive always expected a custom port on almost any device Feb 08 00:52:50 You must be new here Feb 08 00:52:53 its rare i can share a cable Feb 08 00:53:05 GeneralAntilles: Does it?! Feb 08 00:53:18 exhibit a Feb 08 00:54:12 no port will be industrial standart before it will be forced to be it Feb 08 00:54:29 look at 2.5mm jack Feb 08 00:55:03 it's better than 3.5 technically, but there's no headphones that come naturaly 2.5 Feb 08 00:55:12 so it's useless Feb 08 00:55:32 there's more than one example that better != more popular or "winner" in the format wars Feb 08 00:56:43 well, 2.5 is not a rival for 3.5 it's the evolution Feb 08 00:57:03 but manufacturers are scared of it Feb 08 00:57:15 no they're not Feb 08 00:57:20 it's just that evolution is difficult Feb 08 00:57:26 they would stick with studio jack if they could :) Feb 08 00:57:44 lol... XLR headphones Feb 08 00:57:54 >< Feb 08 00:57:57 48v fantom Feb 08 00:58:18 I'm not saying that its dead and totally replaced by 3.5 Feb 08 00:58:32 it's the studio default Feb 08 00:58:39 but not portable one Feb 08 00:58:41 i want headphones which by default have the double set required for aircraft Feb 08 00:58:45 they are the bomb! Feb 08 00:58:56 s/the/teh/ Feb 08 00:58:56 lcuk meant: tehy are the bomb! Feb 08 00:58:59 lcuk: have you seen the ones that are convertible, without an adapter? Feb 08 00:59:03 fuck Feb 08 00:59:06 lol Feb 08 00:59:20 << fail Feb 08 00:59:32 lcuk: I think they need proper amp to be pumped Feb 08 00:59:38 and you people want me to use the console more! Feb 08 00:59:45 lcuk: I could recommend pretty good headphones :) You'll have to dash out half the price of your tablet PC though Feb 08 00:59:58 they make headphones that have a flip-out mono plug on the main plug, so you can plug them into a normal stereo jack, or use them on a plane Feb 08 01:00:45 jaem: yeah I've seen those, don't like them at all Feb 08 01:00:46 yeah i hear ya Feb 08 01:01:07 connectors should not be made of movable parts... Feb 08 01:01:10 * lcuk glides in and out and just smiles to himself :) Feb 08 01:01:11 I use my BT620 headphones thru USB connection right now :) Feb 08 01:01:19 crashanddie: true - I was just mentioning it FWIW Feb 08 01:01:37 jaem: sure Feb 08 01:02:07 my N810 is overdue for reaching the service center :( Feb 08 01:02:23 so I haven't been able to play with any of the shiny new stuff that's come out lately Feb 08 01:02:29 VBox just isn't the same Feb 08 01:04:14 by the way, Mer's already coming up on 0.8... is 1.0 going to be in two versions, or is the numbering changing? Feb 08 01:04:21 it looks like it still has a ways to go... Feb 08 01:04:46 what happened to it? Feb 08 01:04:58 my N810? toasted internal MMC Feb 08 01:04:58 not mer -- your device Feb 08 01:05:11 howdyoudothat? Feb 08 01:05:16 I'm not entirely sure... Feb 08 01:05:52 but it crashed one night during church (note to self: bring paper Bible next time :P), and then wouldn't boot the next morning from the card Feb 08 01:06:12 and then I tried running fsck, and anything that tried to read the partition table would just hang Feb 08 01:06:16 plus lots of I/O errors Feb 08 01:06:56 the same sort of stuff that happened last time my HDD diead Feb 08 02:20:00 GeneralAntilles: yeah Feb 08 02:20:09 GeneralAntilles: theres actually bugfixes in to warrant it Feb 08 02:20:25 GeneralAntilles: but my buildbox went down and I'm failing at remembering how to upload to extras again :P Feb 08 02:20:28 i'll go look it up Feb 08 02:36:53 rm_you, did you see dsme is finally out? Feb 08 02:37:20 nice Feb 08 02:41:51 So, when are you gonna stop having a life and code up that awesome settings dialog? :P Feb 08 02:52:27 actually Feb 08 02:52:32 probably in the next few weeks Feb 08 02:55:45 what's a general size guideline for buttons that are intended to be "finger-friendly"? Feb 08 02:55:54 minimum Feb 08 02:57:27 "visible from orbit" is the term I use for ui elements. make things as easy as possible to click on with anything from a finger or a stylus and stop making tiny shit thats unusable Feb 08 02:58:30 I'm wondering, because some people on the forums had been asking me to see if I could fix up the TI calculator emulator to work on Maemo Feb 08 02:58:37 and the keypad has a fair few keys Feb 08 02:58:58 then you already have a template - wazd did one didnt he Feb 08 02:59:32 did he? For TilEm? There was some talk about the TI-89 emulator, but I hadn't seen anything for the TI-83 one **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Feb 08 02:59:57 2009
