No micro. Just normally sized SD. The IS enough space inside, no need to bullshit users. May 23 13:58:10 that means "current" in my book May 23 13:58:13 luke-jr, and don't give me your line of BS. May 23 13:58:30 It's EoL May 23 14:00:07 pupnik__, and, yes, RAM is power hungry. May 23 14:05:18 GAN800: back now May 23 14:06:51 RST38h, micro-SD is probably the way to go though May 23 14:11:28 4 microsd slots ;p May 23 14:14:22 crashanddie: microsd is uncomfortable as hell to deal with May 23 14:14:31 too small, too fiddly May 23 14:14:48 don't bite your fingernails then May 23 14:15:07 also more difficult/expensive to crum bigger amounts of flash into it May 23 14:21:37 * lcuk810 replaces his fingernail with a microsd card May 23 14:22:10 lcuk: Won't you lose the rest of your finger by trying to use such attachment? =) May 23 14:22:52 RST38h, give a whole new meaning to "user interface" May 23 14:23:08 s/e/es/ May 23 14:23:08 crashanddie meant: RST38h, gives a whole new meaning to "user interface" May 23 14:23:38 My Nokia E70 also uses MiniSD :-) May 23 14:23:54 doesn't mean it's any good though :P May 23 14:23:59 Not that it matters much... I actually use microsd in both N800 and N810 :-) May 23 14:24:05 just a wtf-moment on Nokia's behalf May 23 14:24:16 Shadow: Yea, except that it can't do SDHCs so the adapter question does not really arise May 23 14:24:35 lbt, I gave you editbugs, but it can only be global. May 23 14:24:49 GAN800: OK.. ta. May 23 14:24:54 So, be careful, etc. May 23 14:24:57 The wtf-moment was really back when they did fullsize MMC slots /behind/ the battery, so that you had to replace the battery in order to swap the card May 23 14:24:57 * lcuk810 has always lik;ed the idea of a users' interface May 23 14:25:04 replace=remove May 23 14:25:20 Shadow: Frankly, I do not care much May 23 14:25:45 Shadow: My interaction with the SD card slots is limited to sticking the biggest-available-at-the-moment card there and forgetting about it May 23 14:26:16 indeed :) May 23 14:26:35 Shadow: That does not apply to development crap, but development boards use full sized SDs and have 'em exposed specifically for necrophilia May 23 14:37:44 is 5.2008.43-7 pretty current? May 23 14:38:26 Latest. May 23 14:38:37 cool May 23 14:41:47 is m4a usually better quality than mp3? and if so how to make m4a with linux that way that nokia phone plays it?

May 23 15:31:09 hellohello May 23 15:33:02 i saw a post on talk.maemo.org about full linux distros being installed. debian, ubuntu and now fedora May 23 15:33:04 how usable are they? May 23 15:33:15 Meh May 23 15:33:15 things sure have changed in the year+ ive been gone May 23 15:33:34 Non are battery or mobile friendly. May 23 15:33:45 lol May 23 15:33:49 i can imagine May 23 15:36:01 my device can ping my host, but my host cannot ping my device. Does maemo drop ping packets when it's in the factory configuration? May 23 15:36:51 i recall my 770 doing the same thing May 23 15:37:19 unixSnob, i have never had to fiddle with anything to allow pings back May 23 15:37:23 check your network May 23 15:38:18 the host and device are both connecting wirelessly to a private fonera network, so there's nothing to configure on the router May 23 15:38:42 are you using hostname or ip May 23 15:38:54 ip May 23 15:39:05 you sure its right May 23 15:39:27 * lcuk has static ips so i know whats what May 23 15:39:32 i ran ifconfig to get the ip number May 23 15:39:36 ~wifi-psm May 23 15:39:37 from memory, wifi-psm is http://wiki.maemo.org/Wifi_Power_Saving_Mode_(PSM) May 23 15:40:09 ah.. that sounds familiar May 23 15:40:33 I recall hearing about power saving mode over doing things May 23 15:41:35 * unixSnob is disabling power saving mode for the fonera uplink May 23 15:42:02 in fact, this is all coming back to me now.. fonera routers specifically have a problem w/ maemo and power saving mode May 23 15:42:11 iirc May 23 15:42:15 lcuk, i just realised it was you behind liqbase May 23 15:42:15 :p May 23 15:42:22 heh May 23 15:42:25 i apparently don't read websites May 23 15:42:28 just look for the cute videos May 23 15:42:41 it was all him!

May 23 15:49:44 ha.. booyah! that was it... turned off power saving, and now I can ping the damn thing May 23 15:50:28 im impressed the uni wireless reaches this far into college May 23 15:50:31 and has lasted this long May 23 15:57:21 for kicks could I run the maemo framework on an x86 machine? May 23 15:58:59 Dracie, dunno what you mean by maemo framework, but many parts are included in ubuntu, for example May 23 15:59:27 inz, well I mean matchbox and hildon, and mamo's specific interface configs May 23 15:59:56 I am playing with matchbox, not sure if all the hildon packages are in the ubuntu repo ... i got this all in a vm May 23 16:00:55 Dracie, of course you can also use the maemo.org repositories, which also contain x86 packages, but you don't want to install them in your day-to-day-use install May 23 16:01:24 yup Its fine if i nuke this ubuntu install I love Virtualization May 23 16:01:34 i don't recall what these .install files are. I downloaded one to my host. Once I upload it to the device, will the file manager know what to do with it? May 23 16:01:36 Dracie: can always try out the Mer vmdk's as well May 23 16:01:44 k May 23 16:02:08 (maemo platform mangled into fit on all sorts of devices) May 23 16:02:16 hehe May 23 16:02:26 I might get a beagleboard so I am poking around GUIs May 23 16:03:59 Dracie, buy a tablet, they have a touchscreen which is much more pokable than either your x86 or a beagle May 23 16:04:19 lcuk, yes I would love to buy a n810 May 23 16:04:37 I have an ipod touch not too happy with it though May 23 16:05:23 whats wrong with it then May 23 16:06:20 i just bought an n810 May 23 16:06:30 it brings back memories of my 770, such joy May 23 16:07:48 * unixSnob just read that the 810 wimax edition was discontinued.. wonder why that is May 23 16:09:03 anyone here in the uk thats used 'boingo' before? May 23 16:10:27 lcuk, even jailbroken its a PITA since I don't even have a working toolchain and the repos are far from complete May 23 16:11:46 laff, "city must contain a minimum of 6 chars" May 23 16:11:51 so much for putting my city as 'leeds' then May 23 16:13:53 unixSnob, download the .installs on the device. Sprint screwed up the WiMAX deployment. May 23 16:13:56 amr: Will Leeeds do? May 23 16:14:08 Or even /_eedz May 23 16:14:18 Dracie: good argument May 23 16:15:11 i just put a space at the end heh May 23 16:20:58 GAN800: ok, thanks. I already copied the install files to the device and file manager was able to handle them.. but i guess there's little point in not downloading them directly May 23 16:23:41 are there any triple sim phones that will work as a gsm modem for the n800? May 23 16:23:56 triple sim phones seem to be in small supply May 23 16:24:08 all the drug dealers has them ;) May 23 16:25:15 yeah, i suppose they're quite useful for dealers. one chip for personal, one for legit work, and one for deals May 23 16:26:29 unixSnob: xD May 23 16:27:37 I would have to say the last two ipods have been the worst May 23 16:27:44 btw stskeeps, how about adding support for this in mer? just tot control waypoints, http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Main_Page May 23 16:27:45 I loved my ipod mini it ran UCLinux May 23 16:28:26 Dracie: my ipod nano 1st gen runs ipodlinux :) May 23 16:28:57 now only if my ipod touch ran (useable) linux May 23 16:29:11 * xnt14 wonders what ipods have to do with #maemo May 23 16:29:54 stskeepsie: something like this? http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Ipodrom May 23 16:30:33 Mental note: Avoid anything using GStreamer on the desktop. May 23 16:30:56 xnt14, my 2nd gen ipod nano was horrible I am happy it either got stolen or was lost May 23 16:32:12 Dracie: buy an ipod nano 1st gen and put linux, or if you are willing to put up with a darwin based os/wait for a useable linux get an ipod touch, http://www.iphonelinux.org/index.php/Main_Page May 23 16:32:19 or iphone May 23 16:32:57 yeah i saw videos of that booting May 23 16:33:41 yeah May 23 16:34:10 it just occurred to me that drug dealers could really use a custom app that takes orders over openvpn May 23 16:34:55 unixsnob: I sorta doubt that drugdealers know how to write an app :P May 23 16:35:50 * xnt14 doesn't know what phone to get, iphone 3rd gen, nokia n97, HTC Sapphire, Palm Pre... May 23 16:36:08 xnt14: times are hard May 23 16:36:16 xnt14: it would have to be user friendly.. developers could write it for them May 23 16:36:40 unixSnob: yeah... May 23 16:36:42 xnt14: there could also be a client app.. May 23 16:36:54 unixSnob, i like the principle of ordering a taxi to location via text message and automatic gps May 23 16:37:11 keesj: :( May 23 16:37:17 expand on it and allow pizza deliver, or even illicit goods May 23 16:37:46 now if iphone linux gets drivers and then android, mer, etc gets ported... May 23 16:37:56 xnt14, WinMob is right out. May 23 16:38:06 Pre is CDMA May 23 16:38:25 e71 nokia is pretty good. May 23 16:38:29 for how long though, thats just modem choice May 23 16:38:33 Too small screen for me though. May 23 16:38:36 GAN800: there is going to be a GSM version, I think May 23 16:38:54 But i myself am waiting for the maemo phone to come out :) May 23 16:39:45 Razumihin: I really want a linux/unix phone, and I don't think that nokia is going to make a maemo phone :( May 23 16:40:47 They are. May 23 16:40:50 i dont want a linux phone, it gets tiresome having to open a console and type "sudo answercall" May 23 16:40:57 I can bet on it ;) May 23 16:41:12 lcuk: I would actually prefer that :) May 23 16:41:36 xnt14, sure, but not soon. May 23 16:41:47 xnt14: I have heard from like 5 different nokia employees that it actually exists already. May 23 16:42:04 lcuk is reading to much http://linuxhaters.blogspot.com/ May 23 16:42:05 Razumihin: :) May 23 16:42:13 But i don May 23 16:42:15 Razumihin: They were plaiying with your mind, hehehehehe May 23 16:42:15 heh keesj May 23 16:42:19 lcuk: :P May 23 16:42:30 't know is it coming now or after a year :) May 23 16:42:34 GAN800: Never had a problem with BT breaking in 5800 BTW? May 23 16:42:55 keesj, i spotted it as a posting on twitter and it made me laugh May 23 16:42:56 GAN800: As in "Cannot perform Bluetooth operation" every time you try enabling it May 23 16:42:59 but i couldnt find the link, ta May 23 16:43:10 But i'm pretty happy 9500, e61 and n810 user so no hurry :) May 23 16:44:00 But as a linux hippie I would really prefer linux devices.

May 23 17:20:58 what sort of problem May 23 17:21:52 if I close or open a window, and number of other system processes the sound resets, there's a popping sound at least not sure what it is May 23 17:22:27 does it do this after a reflash May 23 17:22:44 or was there a time rather when it didnt do it May 23 17:23:13 lcuk: haven't reflashed, and yes it used to not do this, I believe a system upgrade but what package? May 23 17:23:29 it sounds like /etc/rc.d/alsa restart May 23 17:23:50 although I'm not sure if the n800 is even using alsa? May 23 17:24:12 but it's a similar sound to doing this on a computer May 23 17:25:10 is it more work than worth it, should I just reflash? May 23 17:26:35 its always easiest May 23 17:26:42 each time a window opens "click-pop" May 23 17:26:49 lcuk: :P May 23 17:27:05 we could travel round the houses for hours, ive never heard of it before though, you could ask in talk.maemo.org May 23 17:27:06 :) May 23 17:27:33 I did a search but most likely used the wrong keywords May 23 17:27:41 found nothing, that is May 23 17:28:25 start a new thread, but I want to start using Mer anyways so I'll reflash then, problem solved :) May 23 17:29:33 * unixSnob just installed PasswordManager, and there's no integration w/ the web browser :( May 23 17:30:00 i mean, i installed passwordsafe May 23 17:30:11 does password manager integrate w/ the browser? May 23 17:37:05 RST38h, not that I've noticed but I never disable it and am several versions behind the rest of the goddamn world.

May 23 18:03:03 I think that last image is just a gnome logout menu May 23 18:03:57 no, that's the deblet/mer rescue menu with a ubuntu skin May 23 18:28:47 suppose I get a dual sim android phone ( http://androidcommunity.com/general-mobile-dlst1-dual-sim-android-phone-coming-to-mwc-20090128/ ).. Can I expect this thing to tether to an n800, since there are android tethering apps out there? May 23 19:11:41 i installed timesheet, and it fails to launch because it can't find /usr/share/gpe/pixmaps May 23 19:11:52 Is GPE a separate install? May 23 19:22:35 fixed it. installing another GPE app caused the needed files to get installed May 23 19:39:01 Hi all, thanks in advance for any help. I just cloned my flash install to my external drive. Everything seems to be working fine and I'm pretty sure I'm now booted into my external install. However, df says /dev/mmcblk0p2 is mount on / and /dev/mmcblk1p2 is mount on /mnt/initfs. Shouldn't */dev/memblk1p2* be mounted on / not mmcblk0? sfdisk says that /dev/mmcblk0p2 is Empty... May 23 19:40:25 there's a bug where it misrepresents mmcblk0 vs mmcblk1, at least May 23 19:54:30 twoheadedturtle: I did a little hack where I create my own mtab file, fixing it up.. May 23 19:54:53 twoheadedturtle: It makes me feel better, at least. May 23 20:09:14 sorry about that, internet disconnected for a bit. Anybody have a clue why mmcblk0p2 (an empty partion) is shown as being mounted at /? May 23 20:22:12 twoheadedturtle, May 23 20:22:12 twoheadedturtle: I did a little hack where I create my own mtab file, fixing it up.. May 23 20:22:13 * b0unc3_ (n=b0unc3@host-84-222-227-194.cust-adsl.tiscali.it) has joined #maemo May 23 20:22:13 twoheadedturtle: It makes me feel better, at least. May 23 20:24:06 haha ok, but anyone know why it does that? I guess it doesn't really matter as long as things work May 23 20:28:14 twoheadedturtle, Yeah, people know why.. kernel bug of some sort. Unpredictable naming iirc, so they had to settle on one convention for the initfs. May 23 20:28:44 Think it was ordered one way with the N800, and another with the N810.. May 23 20:28:51 ahh ok, thanks May 23 20:29:00 Or it may have something to do with whether or not you have an external mmc card in there. May 23 20:29:26 Was considering just swapping the nodes around in my initfs image May 23 20:29:42 But didn't want to screw that up. :-P May 23 20:29:50 i have both internal and external in, but i think i remember reading something about the naming stuff May 23 20:30:05 hahaha i know right, as long as it works, don't fix it May 23 20:30:45 I experienced the naming was swapped when booting N810 without external card May 23 20:31:51 well. i have concluded that win7 goes about as fast as xp but has all of the vista crap May 23 20:32:16 hmm, well I have the external card in, and it's not just that it switches between mmcblk0 - mmcblk1 May 23 20:32:19 it's that it uses both May 23 20:33:24 here is my df and sfdisk outputs May 23 20:33:24 ~ $ df May 23 20:33:24 Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on May 23 20:33:24 /dev/mmcblk1p2 4224 2504 1720 59% /mnt/initfs May 23 20:33:24 none 512 92 420 18% /mnt/initfs/tmp May 23 20:33:25 /dev/mmcblk0p2 8819168 479772 7891396 6% / May 23 20:33:27 none 512 92 420 18% /tmp May 23 20:33:29 none 1024 72 952 7% /dev May 23 20:33:31 tmpfs 1024 0 1024 0% /dev/shm May 23 20:33:33 /dev/mmcblk0p1 1922972 1700424 222548 88% /media/mmc2 May 23 20:33:45 ~ $ sudo sfdisk -l May 23 20:33:45 Password: May 23 20:33:45 Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 61440 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track May 23 20:33:45 Units = cylinders of 32768 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0 May 23 20:33:45 Device Boot Start End #cyls #blocks Id System May 23 20:33:45 /dev/mmcblk0p1 0+ 60210 60211- 1926744 b W95 FAT32 May 23 20:33:47 /dev/mmcblk0p2 0 - 0 0 0 Empty May 23 20:33:49 /dev/mmcblk0p3 0 - 0 0 0 Empty May 23 20:33:51 /dev/mmcblk0p4 0 - 0 0 0 Empty May 23 20:33:53 Disk /dev/mmcblk1: 486192 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track May 23 20:33:55 Units = cylinders of 32768 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0 May 23 20:33:57 Device Boot Start End #cyls #blocks Id System May 23 20:33:59 /dev/mmcblk1p1 1 100000 100000 3200000 b W95 FAT32 May 23 20:34:01 /dev/mmcblk1p2 100001 380000 280000 8960000 83 Linux May 23 20:34:03 /dev/mmcblk1p3 380001 486191 106191 3398112 83 Linux May 23 20:34:05 /dev/mmcblk1p4 0+ 0 1- 31+ 83 Linux May 23 20:34:16 notice that /mnt/initfs is correct, mmcblk1p2, but / is wrong, mmcblk0p2 - which from sfdisk is an empty partion May 23 20:34:47 but like I say things work, and if it's a known, or related to a know issue then I'll leave it be, I just thought maybe i'd done something stupid May 23 20:58:24 aah, paste-attack May 23 21:48:46 i'm sorry this question, scratchbox have is support the mamona?

May 23 23:48:19 scary, i was just about to install that lol May 23 23:48:26 thanks:) May 23 23:48:46 xchat is even better May 23 23:48:53 amr, not perfect, but it saves space and isn't quite as obnoxious as Pidgin.
