**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon May 10 02:59:57 2010 May 10 02:59:58 but actually, the debate is really far off May 10 02:59:58 GAN900: where is it? as there simply is none on my n900. May 10 03:00:09 ukeyboard? May 10 03:00:18 you have to enable it in the settings May 10 03:00:21 raster, settings, close the keyboard, tap a text field May 10 03:00:38 raster: vkbd??? May 10 03:00:49 there is no vkbd setting May 10 03:00:52 anyway, is there a way to force vkbd to pop up when the slider is on? May 10 03:00:53 ... May 10 03:00:54 tested it just now out of curiousity.. it covers the whole screen :S May 10 03:00:55 sure, just close the slide and set focus to textfield May 10 03:01:00 raster: yes, there is May 10 03:01:25 nothing May 10 03:01:26 no vkbd May 10 03:01:27 wall[e]: nope, afaik May 10 03:01:29 press text field May 10 03:01:30 nada May 10 03:01:41 raster: I've simply provided an alternative that requires somewhat simplistic data processing, key precess are insanely long and slow events after all May 10 03:01:45 works here, must be your device then :P May 10 03:01:47 raster: check you settings -> input May 10 03:01:52 DocScrutinizer, :S, just like alt-sym would be nice May 10 03:02:20 rasters' n900 is playing a trick on him :) May 10 03:02:31 he bought china's clone May 10 03:02:34 you have to turn on the vkb on the n900 it's odd by default May 10 03:02:35 ooh there it is May 10 03:02:39 under input May 10 03:02:41 haha May 10 03:02:52 odd is true too, but I meant off May 10 03:02:58 check if there are 2 sim sockets and tv May 10 03:03:05 I liked how fail my brother's "hiphone" was May 10 03:03:07 settings -> text input -> use vkbd (check mark it) May 10 03:03:31 raster: ^^^ May 10 03:03:35 drained the battery so fast that it came with 2 batteries in the box May 10 03:04:33 i can however, leave the slider 1/10 way and use both vkbd and hwkb at the same time, DocScrutinizer May 10 03:04:41 and it could turn photos into a laggy video if you dragged a photo rapidly around May 10 03:04:50 but i don't feel so right about that May 10 03:05:10 thats pretty inaccurate for a fullscreen kbd May 10 03:05:18 and WHY the hell would you want to do that?? May 10 03:05:39 it doesnt do correction well May 10 03:05:40 DocScrutinizer, my hw kb doesn't support thai May 10 03:05:45 * SpeedEvil wonders who might have source for a autocorrecting keyboard. May 10 03:06:00 which can't be implemented on hw kb due to it needs 4 lines May 10 03:06:29 but i am thinking of mixing use it with alt-sym short cuts May 10 03:07:05 but no character on the panel, so may be a phonetic based is making more sense.. May 10 03:07:10 I bet there's a way to pop up the vkbd while slider open May 10 03:07:13 must look at how ru do it. May 10 03:07:26 i don't know how :/ May 10 03:08:03 but having the slider 1/10 way to open isn't that bad, just.. no light in the dark May 10 03:08:08 well the switching tween vkbd and hwkbd for sure is opensource May 10 03:08:15 raster: its a bit about what youre used to as well May 10 03:08:20 indeed May 10 03:08:26 him something May 10 03:08:39 hildron input method framework. May 10 03:08:48 didn't have time to dive into that yet May 10 03:09:16 i'd want alternative input style widget, like gesture text input May 10 03:09:23 i have heard someone done 80wpm May 10 03:09:26 was that a joke? May 10 03:09:28 Funnyfacemob: i've done both rs and cs and cs by far feels better, misses many fewer hits, drags better, doesnt pocket-press. May 10 03:10:09 good you don't use for painting May 10 03:10:32 or writing May 10 03:10:46 i know you are good at painting but beat me http://www.flickr.com/photos/30142075@N00/4584058583/ with a cap ts May 10 03:10:53 or just with your nails May 10 03:11:16 i dant write anymore anyway May 10 03:11:21 my handwriting is attrocious May 10 03:11:30 * wall[e] too May 10 03:11:31 :x May 10 03:11:33 writing sucks May 10 03:11:34 :-P May 10 03:11:35 who write?

May 10 03:14:36 that reminds me May 10 03:14:40 i need to work on my todo list May 10 03:14:40 * DocScrutinizer yawns May 10 03:15:10 work time! May 10 03:15:36 ok May 10 03:15:43 gl engine does 90 degree rotates May 10 03:15:44 what else May 10 03:15:46 hmm thats right May 10 03:15:57 nested scroller works for key/wheel control May 10 03:15:59 need that May 10 03:16:13 then need to make sliders work in scrollers too May 10 03:16:56 btw my phone has a proximity sensor which prevents unintended touch actions inside pocket much more reliable than any c-ts does by inherent properties ;-P May 10 03:17:19 lol May 10 03:18:18 DocScrutinizer: n900? May 10 03:18:31 sure, what else May 10 03:18:43 where is that sensor? May 10 03:18:53 i dont see it May 10 03:18:54 next to speaker May 10 03:18:57 next to the ear speaker May 10 03:19:00 upper left corner, next to cam May 10 03:19:27 oh between camera and speaker May 10 03:19:30 right? May 10 03:19:41 i thought it was infrared May 10 03:19:51 when i tried qirreco May 10 03:19:51 and before you ask, no it's not (yet) configurable to do that in all apps May 10 03:20:00 and i wonder why it didn't work May 10 03:20:04 yes, right May 10 03:20:38 wall[e]: IR apperture is next to cam button May 10 03:20:42 are there any apps that make use of the front camera yet? May 10 03:20:49 other than the mirror app May 10 03:20:50 DocScrutinizer, yes, found out a couple days later lol May 10 03:20:54 was an idiot May 10 03:21:06 * DocScrutinizer waves May 10 03:21:19 night #maemo May 10 03:21:19 * wall[e] waves May 10 03:21:30 good night DocScrutinizer May 10 03:21:38 g'nite, thank you helping us fumbling raster May 10 03:21:49 lol May 10 03:22:44 raster and me have more notions in common than we have different ones May 10 03:22:50 muuch more May 10 03:23:09 X-D May 10 03:23:17 just he has a faible for c-ts, which I don't share May 10 03:23:24 yeah May 10 03:23:34 we disagree on our ts tech May 10 03:23:36 but thats fine May 10 03:23:40 we agree on most other things May 10 03:23:44 noticed! May 10 03:25:08 I agree that the n900s hardware may not be the best, but I still think it is good enough, I wouldn't have complained about 128MB RAM or a 450MHz CPU May 10 03:25:31 it's fast enough for a device like this :p May 10 03:26:08 I wonder what all these people that favour resistive are going to do when Nokia goes over to capacitive? :P May 10 03:26:30 Termana: cut holes in the end of my gloves? May 10 03:26:31 Termana, soon cap will do pressure sensivity May 10 03:26:42 i saw a news about that May 10 03:27:33 Termana: I'm guessing they may end up with a bit of a mixes bag of phone May 10 03:27:58 wall[e], I think Nokia will be implementing pure capacitive on the Harmattan device May 10 03:28:17 Termana, then a bluetooth pen with pressure sensivity is my only hope May 10 03:28:35 Thats probably more speculation than fact though - so either of us could be wrong :P May 10 03:29:00 or i'll wait till wacom build cintiq-phone! May 10 03:29:28 i plan to use n900 for 5 years May 10 03:29:37 before that it was t68 May 10 03:29:42 ericsson's) May 10 03:30:33 hehe my thought when getting the n900 was also "now I probably won't have to get a new device for a few years" May 10 03:31:08 is it good for torrenting? May 10 03:31:11 I initially thought the same thing when I bought a htc tytn ii, but... I was everything but happy about that device May 10 03:31:13 Funnyfacemob: when did you buy it? May 10 03:31:21 electricity consuming perspective May 10 03:31:31 is it bad to plug charger all the time for torrenting? May 10 03:31:59 no idea, haven't tested it much for that May 10 03:32:25 will battery life get down if it has charger pluggged in all the time? May 10 03:32:44 will n900 works w/o battery? May 10 03:32:46 but transmission has a warning saying "this app consumes lots of power" when you run it the first time :P May 10 03:32:56 hehehe May 10 03:33:06 asjwrk: hmm... May 10 03:33:12 but probably better/lower than my PC right? May 10 03:33:22 2-3 months ago maybe May 10 03:33:31 * wall[e] too May 10 03:33:33 Funnyfacemob: so maybe a year ;) May 10 03:33:55 my salary is 300 usd monthly, wouldn't afford that in a year May 10 03:33:57 wall[e]: naw, I dont think so. Using no battery might help but nobdoy wants to do that May 10 03:34:15 Dassu, for torrenting while i was sleeping. May 10 03:34:42 if that use less electricity than my pc May 10 03:34:52 well li ion doesn't like to be warm and charged to 100% all the time May 10 03:34:57 due to heat generation, it shouldn't May 10 03:35:12 that's the worst storage condition you xan put it in May 10 03:35:23 but the battery isn't that expensive May 10 03:35:38 Funnyfacemob, i guess i can get an expired one just to swap-in for that? May 10 03:35:46 if it didn't work w/o any battery? May 10 03:36:19 ok, work, need to reflash too May 10 03:36:24 good luck for me! May 10 03:36:31 first time reflashgin! May 10 03:36:36 Ive heard it wont work without battery May 10 03:36:48 ah too bad May 10 03:36:49 thanks May 10 03:37:02 but a bad battery should be fine :P May 10 03:37:06 yeh May 10 03:37:34 however I am not sure if that heat is from the battery May 10 03:37:41 wall[e]: nope. N900 needs bat. And keeping charger connected will not wear bat May 10 03:37:42 might be the radio and cpu May 10 03:37:57 DocScrutinizer51, cool! thanks! May 10 03:38:17 it won't wear the batt as in "overcharging" it May 10 03:38:44 but generally li ion wears out faster when its warm and fully charged May 10 03:38:52 charger plugged in or not May 10 03:39:17 yes. that's why it's not fully charged most of the time May 10 03:39:54 hardware should have something to prevent that automatically? May 10 03:39:56 ~batteryfaq May 10 03:39:56 i guess batteryfaq is http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Battery_Questions_and_Answers May 10 03:40:04 thanks May 10 03:40:26 room temp and 60% was the best storage condition if I remember right May 10 03:40:59 nope. 10C May 10 03:41:04 better May 10 03:44:31 I hope that one day we'll see batteries with a decent capacity that will charge in a few secs May 10 03:45:01 fuelcell? May 10 03:45:24 not over USB :-P May 10 03:45:30 hehe May 10 03:45:35 :D May 10 03:45:43 well it'll have to be a separate charger May 10 03:45:52 something stick and thrown away May 10 03:46:54 likes good old AA May 10 03:47:30 A123 May 10 03:47:32 better made of good, so it's good for nature. May 10 03:48:04 looks cool. May 10 03:48:35 DocScrutinizer: USB4 has a liquid hydrogen line. May 10 03:48:52 :D May 10 03:48:53 DocScrutinizer: This does mean that the cables are 8cm thick - but sacrifices have to be made. May 10 03:49:01 cool err cooling? May 10 03:49:17 No - fuel cell! May 10 03:50:13 * DocScrutinizer51 wonders if ther's such thing like liquid H2 May 10 03:50:49 compressed May 10 03:51:11 or cooled.. maybe May 10 03:51:12 and frozen May 10 03:51:28 liquid hydrogen exists - it's what the shuttle fuel tank has in it for example May 10 03:51:31 (largely) May 10 03:53:14 wp says 20K.. May 10 03:53:34 did you get your drivers license now, speed? May 10 03:54:48 will flasher format MyDocs? May 10 03:55:05 I think so May 10 03:55:07 * DocScrutinizer51 starts to wonder about SpeedEvil 's nick May 10 03:55:17 Funnyface: No - funding problems. May 10 03:55:24 :( May 10 03:55:30 oh May 10 03:55:32 thanks May 10 03:55:50 should I move backup files away? May 10 03:56:02 better to it for everything May 10 03:56:09 wall[e]: sure, if you flash emmc May 10 03:56:19 you should hurry up and get it done asap so you dont forget how to drive and have to start all over again like my matw May 10 03:56:21 DocScrutinizer, can I flash only the system? May 10 03:56:22 mate May 10 03:56:27 sure May 10 03:56:31 without MyDocs May 10 03:56:33 ok, thanks May 10 03:56:36 different files even May 10 03:57:01 Funnyface: Yes, I know. It's not that simple unfortunately. May 10 03:57:23 mmm, i guess i'll just backup things May 10 03:57:33 just for sure May 10 03:57:55 my device needs a reflash too.. calibration tool is broken May 10 03:58:07 and the display is miscalibrated May 10 03:58:33 can't find a solution in the forums other than "reflash" May 10 03:59:14 SpeedEvil: ah well it will be fine one day you see :p May 10 03:59:34 Funnyfacemob: scan the chan logs for calibration May 10 03:59:45 i should have MyDocs under svn May 10 04:00:04 svn makes tracker a sad panda.

May 10 04:49:55 rektide: we're all moving to meego it seems like May 10 04:51:43 * SpeedEvil hopes the migration goes well. http://xkcd.com/623/ May 10 05:40:48 I have been able to configure N900 to connect to my wi-fi network. Proxy auth is required to connect to internet through this network. I have set proxy server address in the internet connections. When I try to get updates from applcation manager it says 'Application list partially refreshed. Some catalogues unavailable'.

Proxy auth is required to connect to internet through this network. I have set proxy server address in the internet connections. When I try to get updates from applcation manager it says 'Application list partially refreshed. Some catalogues unavailable'. In the application manager log I see : 407 proxy authentication required. May 10 05:58:06 Viliny I chked out the link.

May 10 06:11:54 Stskeeps: I set the proxy server details in the internet conn May 10 06:11:57 I suppose there is no gui way of doing it. May 10 06:12:09 Command-line? May 10 06:12:31 MiXu: is there a file I can edit to set this May 10 06:12:40 Manjiri: if HAM doesn't support it , it's a bug May 10 06:13:26 I need to install rootsh to get root access in order to install apps I am developing.

May 10 06:14:45 That would seem like an easy solution to me May 10 06:15:52 MiXu: You are right. I have a 24X7 free broadband access that uses the proxy. I wanted to be sure that this will not work before I pay for a connection that doesnt use proxy May 10 06:17:42 I guess proxies that require authentication are quite rare. I've never had to use a username/password for a proxy. May 10 07:09:24 One thing which kinda annoys me, is that I'm merging contacts on my N900 but whenever I was SyncEvolution to sync to my google contacts, the merged information isn't updated there. I'm aware that that's probably intentional, but I'd like an option to properly merge contacts. May 10 07:12:23 Ah... the headaches of linking contact systems... May 10 07:16:37 * RST38h asks the Tentacled One to own the Gods of Internet May 10 07:16:56 Hi, I'm wondering if anyone else has issues with the media player's shuffling on the N900? It seems it shuffles once and then follows the same pattern. At least that's what I've experienced with a small set of songs (25-50). May 10 07:17:35 * achipa_nettop asks the gods of SNAFU (or X-Fade) to take a look at deplib stuff May 10 07:18:20 Given that his symbols stuff does not even work under sb2... May 10 07:18:44 as in, how can http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-devel_free_armel/flashlauncher/0.1-maemo0/ depend on three different versions of Qt... May 10 07:19:12 m0sand: it is known bug. Should be fixed in PR1.2 :P https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7133 May 10 07:19:13 Bug 7133: Shuffle all songs often plays a non-random sequence after the first song May 10 07:20:26 Ok thanks! May 10 07:27:09 oh my.. MyPaint just blew my mind. That is a sweet sweet application. In fact I think it's the sweetest app I have on my N900. May 10 07:32:45 nice to read that, mece May 10 07:33:06 any progress on ui? May 10 07:33:20 i notice none of my improvements were used May 10 07:33:47 what where those? I just installed it the first time, and it turned out to be awesome. May 10 07:33:57 pupink, no finger scrolling in brush list. May 10 07:39:06 Okay guys, I need some sort of software that can import directories of .vcf's, some sort of auto-merge, and then re-export them to .vcf's in a folder. ;P May 10 07:41:43 I guess I could just merge all of them into one big VCF? May 10 07:42:02 what is a vcf May 10 07:42:29 mece... bind all useful stuff to keyboard keys May 10 07:43:37 http://pupnik.de/mypaint_cmds1sm.jpg May 10 07:43:59 have you linked that in the thread? May 10 07:45:06 it is linked on a t.m.o thread May 10 07:45:21 ok.. the Mypaint-0.7.1 for fremantle one? May 10 07:45:27 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=41807 May 10 07:45:36 I didn't read the whole thing. May 10 07:46:04 will add thanks May 10 07:48:34 * RST38h is testing a Symbian package on S60e3 May 10 07:49:04 So damn slow... But yes, the phone spent a *week* on and the battery gauge is down 1 (one) bar. May 10 07:49:31 what model? May 10 07:49:56 I'm guessing an n95? May 10 07:50:13 E70 May 10 07:50:20 N95 is just an overhyped ugly brick May 10 07:50:30 lol May 10 07:51:17 e70 is sexy May 10 07:51:39 yep, the best form factor Nokia ever produced May 10 07:52:03 ok, creating a case for THAT has been somewhat problematic, but otherwise... May 10 07:52:32 i agree now... as a phone it rules. but i prefer a tablet / porftrait for two-thumb action May 10 07:52:57 RST38h: n95 is the best symbian phone May 10 07:53:10 pupnik: not that they couldn't combine the two... May 10 07:53:22 jacekowski: yea. right. May 10 07:53:58 I think you could made the case for the E90 May 10 07:53:59 let's argue about subjective views :) May 10 07:54:07 E90 is nice May 10 07:54:09 sounds so much fun May 10 07:54:22 what other phone can you use to protect yourself from a police night stick? May 10 07:54:35 looks like a hidden gun holster when you are carrying it in your jacket, but cool otherwise May 10 07:54:40 nokia 1610 May 10 07:57:08 i would sell body parts for an updated maemo/meego clamshell phone similar to, but smaller than E90, with n900-sized keys in 5 rows May 10 08:03:02 pupnik: I heard Chinese will buy some body parts May 10 08:15:39 Hi ! May 10 08:18:04 moin May 10 08:18:15 hi Khertan_Home.... May 10 08:18:39 hi lbt May 10 08:18:44 Khertan_Home: were you unhappy with the maemo Extras QA process? May 10 08:19:35 lbt, yes i didn't like it May 10 08:19:38 why ? May 10 08:19:44 http://wiki.maemo.org/OpenSuse_Build_Service/Application_QA_Process#Individual_Homes_and_PPAs May 10 08:20:08 I'm working through how this will appear when we deploy an OBS for Fremantle/harmattan and meego May 10 08:22:36 lbt, hum ... interesting ... May 10 08:23:17 *nod* May 10 08:23:29 did you see my post on planet? May 10 08:23:29 Does not fix Khertan's issue. May 10 08:23:35 X-Fade: doesn't it? May 10 08:23:38 No, May 10 08:23:45 Why ? May 10 08:23:50 Ok, whoever is interested, the Symbian version of Speccy is up May 10 08:23:51 He wanted to have his app available for everybody, but without QA. May 10 08:24:03 That is never going to happen. May 10 08:24:14 Sure, you can have your own repo, but that is what he has now. May 10 08:24:26 Hey, X-Fade, could you solve my issue? :) May 10 08:24:34 I think it's in between X-Fade May 10 08:24:43 X-Fade, the problem is n't the QA ... but the actual QA ... May 10 08:24:56 it's on the same infra which means it's reliable insofar as it won't vanish May 10 08:25:00 and a PPA ... is nice May 10 08:25:14 X-Fade: Your super duper symbols package only works with Squeeze tools and Squeeze tools are not available for SB2 May 10 08:25:15 lbt: He still needs to push to extras, if he wants to have the big audience. May 10 08:25:19 it s package builded from source May 10 08:25:21 fully agree May 10 08:25:28 X-Fade, i forgot this idea :) May 10 08:25:30 RST38h: SB2 uses host tools, rght? May 10 08:25:37 X-Fade: nOpe. May 10 08:25:44 It did once, but not for a long time =( May 10 08:25:58 RST38h: Well, SB2 is kind of deprecated it seems. May 10 08:26:18 BTW, could someone tell me why not being in Extras means less audience? May 10 08:26:33 X-Fade: Isn't SB2 what Nokia is planning to replace SB1 with? May 10 08:26:36 RST38h: End users don't add repos. May 10 08:26:44 RST38h: Doesn't look like it. May 10 08:26:50 Extras is at least on the device by default May 10 08:26:54 X-Fade: But they do not have to, they just need to click on the Install thing on his page, righr? May 10 08:27:01 RST38h: SB is dead in MeeGo anyway. May 10 08:27:02 private repositories are a bother May 10 08:27:04 tbd May 10 08:27:18 X-Fade: Well, there seems to be SB2 development going on at Nokia, people respondign to emails etc May 10 08:27:27 I personally don't think PPAs should be a mass-deployment thing May 10 08:27:33 RST38h, this is the reallity ... everyone doesn't add external repository, some reading talk didn't do it due to many warning available everywhere May 10 08:27:34 RST38h: Yes, but how would they ever find that .install ;) May 10 08:27:39 I would like them to support a much quicker cycle time May 10 08:27:57 X-Fade: Web search? TMO announcement? Planet Maemo post? May 10 08:28:00 X-Fade, on maemo.org May 10 08:28:05 with dedicated followers of an application able to subscribe May 10 08:28:10 X-Fade, on maemo.org/downloads/ May 10 08:28:13 RST38h: 1% of all users, will probably do that yes. May 10 08:28:22 X-Fade: I mean, any of these are better than finding your package in a slow-scrolling list of 100+ packages in App Manager May 10 08:28:36 X-Fade, exactly ... but i ll say from my stats 2% :) May 10 08:28:46 Anyhow...... May 10 08:28:58 we have the facility to offer something like that May 10 08:29:12 Khertan: You should market the same way people always marketed their shareware May 10 08:29:27 although I'm getting to the point where I need help making the OBS chroot work May 10 08:29:27 lbt: I think the 'home' builds have more value as they are linked to the actual repo they can be added to. May 10 08:29:44 Khertan: Make a web page with a huge install link. Regularly announce at t.m.o and ask bloggers say a word for you in their blogs May 10 08:29:50 lbt: And will never get out of date because they can follow updates in the 'parent' repo. May 10 08:30:07 yep... and someone can fork them May 10 08:30:11 no namespace issues May 10 08:30:13 Khertan: This is no different from the way it has always been done. I am not sure where the current app store fixation is coming from May 10 08:30:24 * lbt has json-glib building BTW May 10 08:30:27 almost May 10 08:30:36 which is the build-dep for conboy May 10 08:30:40 RST38h, it ll never come to fremantle ... May 10 08:30:45 \o/ May 10 08:30:51 Khertan: what will never come? May 10 08:31:10 It seems we need to fix mimetypes on the FE, downloads are being served up with weird mime. May 10 08:31:10 RST38h, ovi store for selling paid apps May 10 08:31:18 lbt: ^^ May 10 08:31:49 yes... have you seen http://wiki.maemo.org/OpenSuse_Build_Service/Fremantle_Setup May 10 08:32:29 lbt: No, I saw it in the FE overview though. May 10 08:33:21 so right now I'm having problems making fakeroot-tcp work in chroot May 10 08:33:31 also mount --bind doesn't work in qemu May 10 08:33:43 so I'm adapting base-files to do better tests May 10 08:33:48 lbt: Latest qemu? May 10 08:33:48 http://gitorious.org/m-obs/base-files May 10 08:33:59 it's the suse-special qemu May 10 08:34:12 they're pretty much upstrea, May 10 08:34:13 m May 10 08:34:15 Where are the contacts stored on the N900? SQL/XML/? May 10 08:35:45 lbt: Ok, just though we could ask Riku perhaps. May 10 08:35:53 TigerTael: sqlite May 10 08:36:04 X-Fade: *nod* May 10 08:36:24 Corsac, does that include IM contact details? May 10 08:36:56 I think so, not sure May 10 08:37:17 Khertan: Screw Ovi Store May 10 08:37:32 Khertan: I have been selling through eSellerate for years, and it worked May 10 08:37:53 Khertan: All this talk about Ovi Store sounds like some kind of anal fixation to me May 10 08:38:04 don't you like anal fixation? May 10 08:38:17 (you don't have to answer that) May 10 08:38:17 Corsac: no, I find it unnatural May 10 08:38:41 Khertan: People honestly think that Ovi is the *only* way for them to sell their stuff May 10 08:39:25 Khertan: In spite of Ovi being rather broken, requiring high fees, corporate insurance, and allowing everyone to just steal paid content right from the repos May 10 08:39:27 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:IT_%28South_Park;_The_Entity%29.jpeg May 10 08:39:29 It's not at all when you're a developer like the majority here :P May 10 08:42:01 RST38h, it s more a Visibility Fixation May 10 08:42:22 RST38h, no one care test things in non-free maemo repository May 10 08:42:39 Khertan: my stuff gets tested May 10 08:42:49 Khertan: not without some coaxing though May 10 08:43:06 RST38h, i ve lost any hope May 10 08:43:17 But yes, this "testing" requirement for Extras has become mostly a political hurdle May 10 08:43:29 ~poke X-Fade May 10 08:43:29 It no longer has anything to do with actually testing apps May 10 08:43:32 RST38h, i 'm now doing things for myself May 10 08:43:53 achipa_nettop: here May 10 08:44:06 if it s usefull for other ... i said ... add my repository to your app manager ... May 10 08:44:17 X-Fade: is the shlibs thingie supposed to work with Qt libs ? May 10 08:44:28 RST38h, and if noone is happy with that ... i answer : do it yourself May 10 08:44:50 X-Fade: see http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-devel_free_armel/flashlauncher/0.1-maemo0/ May 10 08:44:59 it managed to depend on 3 different versions of Qt May 10 08:45:14 Noice May 10 08:45:20 qt libs are a mess for me too achipa_nettop May 10 08:45:24 RST38h, anyway i didn't care anymore of trying to made my apps available on extras ... May 10 08:45:40 phototranslate wont run here May 10 08:45:51 achipa_nettop: Yes, and this is bad why? May 10 08:45:54 RST38h, i ve made my own repository ... source published on gitorius ... and bugtracker is on khertan.net/flyspray May 10 08:45:57 achipa_nettop: They are all >= May 10 08:46:15 X-Fade: plus, I’m not sure why libqt4-gui (>= 4.5.3~git20090723-0maemo6+0m5) is a missing dependency - that is the one in PR1.1 May 10 08:46:26 RST38h, and as many claim : it s haven't destroy the maemo community May 10 08:46:31 achipa_nettop: Firmware in the interface is PR1.0 May 10 08:47:22 'interface'? May 10 08:47:51 X-Fade: it is inherently wrong to mix qt versions, especially since in Maemo we’re not binary compatible May 10 08:47:53 Packages interface views from a PR1.0 pov. May 10 08:48:03 achipa_nettop: It doesn't mix. May 10 08:48:06 X-Fade: why not update it to 1.1.1? May 10 08:48:20 achipa_nettop: It just says that it needs at least that version. May 10 08:48:40 achipa_nettop: In practice this will give you only one version anyway. May 10 08:48:53 RST38h: Because not all devices can run PR1.1.1 May 10 08:49:09 X-Fade: but it’s the wrong version. My app compiles against PR1.0 just fine. May 10 08:49:40 (yes, PR1.1 has cool fixes, but they should be API/API compatible) May 10 08:49:54 achipa_nettop: You must be using a symbol which is only in a newer version? May 10 08:50:18 i doubt these are compatible May 10 08:50:21 X-Fade: What devices cannot run PR1.1.1? May 10 08:50:28 on linux most update break at least ABI May 10 08:50:30 achipa_nettop: negative. PR1.1 Qt and PR1.0 Qt are binary compatible, it’s the same API. May 10 08:50:33 and in 90% cases api May 10 08:50:38 RST38h: Onces from providers which don't offer PR1.1 May 10 08:50:44 *ones May 10 08:51:11 Do these actually exist? Who are they? May 10 08:51:39 RST38h: Search tmo May 10 08:51:42 X-Fade: also, the 4.6 dep is bogus. I compile against 4.5 on my scratchbox. May 10 08:52:13 achipa_nettop: This is all because they messed with Qt. May 10 08:52:22 X-Fade: I know May 10 08:52:26 achipa_nettop: I really feel this is a WONTFIX until PR1.2 is out ;) May 10 08:52:32 just do it in GTK+ :p May 10 08:52:54 Corsac: GTK+ is a big wontfix in itself ;) May 10 08:52:56 X-Fade: Will this continue even after 1.2 is release? May 10 08:52:59 released May 10 08:53:06 achipa_nettop, but gtk+ works on maemo May 10 08:53:10 achipa_nettop: Qt is not to be used until PR1.2, that is how I feel about it. May 10 08:53:45 X-Fade: don’t worry, they’ll break it again, so you’ll feel the same about PR1.3 :) :( May 10 08:53:47 After PR1.2 release, we can opt to remove the Qt symbols file. So it only builds against the current sdk. May 10 08:54:13 * RST38h feels something fishy about this whole process May 10 08:55:19 X-Fade: okay, so for now I’ll force 4.5 PR1.0 deps and hope for the best... May 10 08:55:38 achipa_nettop: I think that is the best solution, yes. May 10 08:56:25 Khertan_Home: I tried, I really did, but I never grew to like it. Plus, for some reason, it was a pain to develop simultaneously for Diablo and Fremantle May 10 08:57:38 achipa_nettop, just a matter of preferences, as i found it s a pain to use qt for diablo and fremantle, but i ve not problem with gtk/hildon May 10 08:57:39 :) May 10 08:58:05 but i didn't know well qt while i know better the gtk framework May 10 08:59:14 Khertan_Home: yes, I agree there is huge chunk of preference May 10 09:04:23 just got an e-mail back from mapmytracks, once they are done with iphone and android version they will develop an app for the n900 May 10 09:04:25 :) May 10 09:09:02 X-Fade: ping May 10 09:09:25 rcg-work: pong May 10 09:09:37 ah great :) May 10 09:10:28 holy cow. drawn with default sketch app ??? http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4040/4575218668_a58db2867c_o.png May 10 09:11:06 X-Fade: i had some problem with importing packages using the autobuilder .. the problem is: i uploaded some packages with apparently wrong bugtracker links etc. .. then i fixed these and reuploaded .. but maemo.org/packages/ still shows the old values May 10 09:11:31 rcg-work: which package? May 10 09:11:36 X-Fade: i double checked the control file and it has the correct values May 10 09:12:29 X-Fade: icedtea6, ant, and libjline May 10 09:16:35 rcg-work: Maybe it has something to do with your description, that doesn't look sane. May 10 09:18:03 X-Fade: ah ok, any hint on how to correct this? May 10 09:18:12 rcg-work: empty line in description should be May 10 09:18:54 rcg-work: You seem to be using underscores. May 10 09:18:56 X-Fade: ok, thanks! i'll try this May 10 09:19:03 yes thats what i did May 10 09:19:40 rcg-work: the bugtracker line itself looks ok, I guess that the parser just bails out before reaching it. May 10 09:24:34 icedtea to N900. Nice. May 10 09:25:46 rcg-work: Does it include browser plugin and webstart? May 10 09:25:49 X-Fade: i just checked, ant and libjline do not have empty lines in the description May 10 09:26:23 rcg-work: only checked icedtea, let me check the other ones. May 10 09:26:55 phellarv: it has javaws .. not sure about the browser plugin May 10 09:27:41 uggggg May 10 09:27:51 firmware download keeps stop at 100m May 10 09:28:11 i don't know what to do May 10 09:28:42 f nokia May 10 09:29:07 ... May 10 09:29:25 wall[e], wait couple of hours and try again May 10 09:29:41 several times, i tried May 10 09:29:48 and it keeps stopping at 100m May 10 09:29:55 and it doesn't allow continue download May 10 09:29:55 make sure you don't have any non-connectivity repositories in app manager May 10 09:30:12 it may cause that kind of behavior May 10 09:30:12 what does that have to do with it... May 10 09:30:16 wall[e], did you wait a couple of hours several times? May 10 09:30:16 this is firmware download May 10 09:30:24 mece, yes May 10 09:30:35 wall[e], it has everything to do with it, trust me May 10 09:30:36 wall[e], which one are you trying to dl? May 10 09:31:05 Surfa, it has nothing to do with it May 10 09:31:29 http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php?f=RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin May 10 09:31:45 phellarv: it's the version from http://camswl.com May 10 09:31:49 that one May 10 09:31:52 MohammadAG, sure it does, i can produce situation like that simply by enabling one repo that doesn't answer, some applications download partly and then stop May 10 09:32:05 i download this on PC May 10 09:32:09 it has nothing to do with repo May 10 09:32:11 Surfa, ... May 10 09:32:17 read what he said May 10 09:32:34 re all May 10 09:33:16 MohammadAG, quickly checking backlog didn't give me any hits on that, but now i see the point.. that you could also give and not just give arbitrary "nothing to do with" comments May 10 09:33:22 timeless_mbp: noted! May 10 09:33:30 ... May 10 09:33:33 wall[e], weird anyhow May 10 09:33:54 did they have imie built in in each download ? May 10 09:34:02 nope May 10 09:34:06 :) May 10 09:34:07 it's only a cookie May 10 09:35:06 wall[e], you sure did try download on another pc? May 10 09:35:21 ..or browser.. May 10 09:35:32 on another pc May 10 09:35:46 not from the n900 May 10 09:35:59 well, it shouldn't make any difference then May 10 09:36:16 i've seen some browser related download issues like that May 10 09:36:29 but don't know for sure of course May 10 09:37:42 ok May 10 09:38:30 sure highly regulated network could cause that too.. but i kind of doubt it's nokia-end problem, which it may of course be :) May 10 09:38:35 bah, so annoying browser registers taps when screen is blanked May 10 09:38:46 can someone point me towards a 24" WQXGA monitor?

May 10 09:42:25 it's possible thailand is not an allowed country May 10 09:42:33 there are countries that are blocked May 10 09:42:36 e.g. Iran May 10 09:42:41 or the akaimi server's down?

May 10 09:43:29 timeless_mbp, it is allowed, just it keep stopping at 100mb, but that doesn't matter, they should just allow thing for something like wget -c May 10 09:43:29 there is currently nothing smaller with that res mece May 10 09:43:50 wow, that's embarrassing.

May 10 09:48:10 working on cookies method May 10 09:48:20 since i already have 100m May 10 09:49:01 Corsac, I don't want to downgrade.

May 10 10:27:07 Piotras: Hmm, let me check. May 10 10:27:44 X-Fade, in control file: Build-Conflicts: python2.3-dev, python2.3 May 10 10:28:21 X-Fade, if this is 'Build-Conflicts', why python2.3 headers include is appended to cflags?

May 10 10:39:20 what FW are you on? May 10 10:41:15 How do I figure that out? May 10 10:42:23 manjiri: settings -> about May 10 10:42:36 manjiri: on the device - apps menu May 10 10:43:48 Got it: the verison is 2.2009.51-1. So this FW doesnt have Red pill. May 10 10:44:21 manjiri, and it doesn't have App Manager installs May 10 10:44:21 MohammadAG_: FW - 2.2009.51-1 May 10 10:44:42 update to 3.2010.02-8 then click on the deb May 10 10:45:01 How do I update w/o internet on the device May 10 10:45:20 proxy is blocking access to internet May 10 10:45:41 remove the proxy then May 10 10:45:55 should the proxy allow http? May 10 10:46:20 Alternatively May 10 10:46:22 ~flashing May 10 10:46:22 well, flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware May 10 10:46:25 See that May 10 10:46:41 get the latest firmware file for your n900 and region, and flash it May 10 10:47:23 http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_USB_networking May 10 10:47:40 alternatively - if you can get access to a computer with the internet. May 10 10:49:08 * SpeedEvil wonders if anyone knows where his microSD-SD adaptor is. May 10 10:49:13 * SpeedEvil suspects not. May 10 10:49:53 SpeedEvil: it's in the same place all those lost DVI-VGA adapters go May 10 10:49:59 SpeedEvil: It ran that way ---> May 10 10:50:10 speedEvil can you help me i am novice May 10 10:50:12 Wolfie: I'd be surprised if I have any of those - no DVI in this house! May 10 10:50:22 SpeedEvil: I have computer with internet access May 10 10:50:26 r0gcas: Perhaps. Do you have a problem with spreadable cheese? May 10 10:50:45 anyone know if you can separate the 3d movie channel with any player? May 10 10:50:50 r0gcas: Partial differentials? May 10 10:51:01 into 2 views separately May 10 10:51:12 so i can cross eyed watching May 10 10:51:16 My main problem is: where do I specify proxy user and password so that app manager can access internet? May 10 10:51:25 no haha, i don't know what are you talking about but suspect you are kjoking May 10 10:51:30 I have set server details in internet connections May 10 10:51:55 r0gcas: I am attempting to guess your question. May 10 10:52:13 r0gcas: It may be more efficient if you state what it is, otherwise this could go on for some time. May 10 10:52:44 my objective is to get running a gtk_helloworld app in a nokia maemo device, the n900 May 10 10:53:14 manjiri, advanced settings? May 10 10:53:35 r0gcas: you might like http://wiki.maemo.org/Packaging#A_concrete_example_-_hello May 10 10:54:00 X-Fade: did you have a chance to look at the other two packages? May 10 10:54:04 i have done that in scratchbox on the pc with xephire May 10 10:54:27 Mohammad: advanced settings allows one to set just server IP etc, not username or pwd. May 10 10:54:29 rcg-work: No, way too fragmented at the moment. Will look at it later. May 10 10:54:43 thanks i will look at that May 10 10:54:57 Mohammad: browser prompts for the account details but app manager silently fails May 10 10:55:09 hmm May 10 10:55:25 X-Fade: ok, thanks for your efforts anyway :) .. might ask you later on if i'm at home you don't mind .. May 10 10:55:31 I can see in the app manager log : 407 proxy server auth required May 10 10:55:35 *if you don't May 10 10:56:18 no idea about that one May 10 10:56:22 :) May 10 10:56:42 try apt-get dist-upgrade? May 10 10:56:43 oh wait May 10 10:56:45 no root May 10 10:57:01 Mohammad: I think one can set the values in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00maemo May 10 10:57:13 but as you said no root May 10 10:57:18 so no permission May 10 10:57:36 manjiri, this might be useful, although it is very dangerous (if you tinker a lot with the bootloader) http://wiki.maemo.org/R&D_mode May 10 10:57:49 sudo gainroot in the console can be used, without installing anything extra, to gain a root shell. May 10 10:58:04 then install rootsh and disable R&D mode May 10 10:58:15 you don't need to reflash, but you need flasher-3.5 May 10 10:58:32 Is there a standard place to put n900 related stuff that does not go through the packager? May 10 10:58:42 For example - rescue 'disk' images. May 10 10:59:08 packager? May 10 10:59:45 err - I mean - not distributed through HAM May 10 11:00:05 don't put it in user/ and it shouldn't show up in HAM May 10 11:00:42 Mohammad: Thanks. I will try it out. Can firmware be upgraded offline: download to PC and install on N900? May 10 11:00:55 MohammadAG: I mean packages which are not meant to be installed in the normal manner on the n900. (as they are not n900 based) May 10 11:01:00 man: May 10 11:01:04 ~flashing May 10 11:01:05 flashing is, like, http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware May 10 11:01:07 See that May 10 11:02:08 manjiri: keep in mind that flashing is destructive May 10 11:02:15 whereas over the air isn't May 10 11:02:28 Yes, I should have mentioned that, sorry. May 10 11:02:36 * timeless_mbp shrugs May 10 11:02:43 users getting advice from random people = stupid May 10 11:02:51 Flashing will wipe a few settings - though it preserves most user data for normal users. May 10 11:02:52 Thanks timeless_mbp n SpeedEvil May 10 11:02:55 you could be giving him a virus or stealing his credit card May 10 11:03:02 timeless_mbp: wtf? May 10 11:03:11 timeless_mbp: this is IRC, the whole point is peer review and trust May 10 11:03:14 crashanddie, coffee shortage May 10 11:03:15 timeless_mbp: don't tell him the maaaaaster plan! May 10 11:03:15 I could? Cool! May 10 11:03:26 manjiri: Can you PM me your CC details too. May 10 11:03:35 * SpeedEvil diddn't know this was allowed in the channel. May 10 11:03:39 OMFG LOL manjiri type rm -rf / in the console for pr0n lols May 10 11:03:41 :) May 10 11:03:50 err don't do that lol May 10 11:03:57 Hahah May 10 11:04:03 No, really don't do that .. May 10 11:04:13 i have a question please: the only way to get a gtk_helloworld app running on a nokia-maemo device is through a packaging process, isn't there a more simple and straight for way to do that? May 10 11:04:16 rm -rf /* for better pr0n, crashanddie's method sucks May 10 11:04:28 No, really don't do that .. ^ applies for that too :P May 10 11:04:43 r0gcas: copy the binaries to the device, execute May 10 11:04:47 I remember watching a psychology documentary about how when you tell someone not to do something, they will, inevitably do it. May 10 11:05:10 * lcuk2 sees if it works May 10 11:05:14 don't kick alterego May 10 11:05:18 And even though I've known what rm -rf * does, for a long time, I have executed that command in rather annoying locations on my filesystem. May 10 11:05:26 crashhanddie i tried that but dosen't work dfor me May 10 11:05:31 alterego: yeah, don't tell your kids "Don't eat the lovely red fruits from that tree, it will burn very badly" May 10 11:05:33 MohammadAG: I mean packages which are not meant to be installed in the normal manner on the n900. (as they are not n900 based) May 10 11:05:35 not following tbh May 10 11:05:38 and ffs May 10 11:05:58 Heh May 10 11:06:12 I didn't see his message till now May 10 11:06:45 MohammadAG: sorry - n900 related packages that are meant to be installed on other devices. For example, 'rescue disk' mmc images. May 10 11:06:58 MohammadAG: SD images May 10 11:07:15 define other devices May 10 11:07:44 MohammadAG: Other than the n900. May 10 11:07:50 Cool, new nokia phones (not N900) do encryption? May 10 11:07:50 nvm - I need to get this working first May 10 11:08:08 I wonder what the technique is, would be good to port that functionality to maemo. May 10 11:08:25 (encrypted SD cards that is ...) May 10 11:08:52 alterego: There is a n900 hw crypto driver going to the kernel now May 10 11:09:04 SpeedEvil: officially?

May 10 11:13:51 crashanddie: meego/maemo devices? Or actually head of S/W engineering at Nokia? ^.^ May 10 11:14:18 my bad, his official title is "Principal SW Engineer" May 10 11:14:32 so team lead May 10 11:14:34 He's not even a senior s/w engineer then :P May 10 11:14:45 m'kay May 10 11:15:13 http://www.aijaa.com/v.php?i=6183543.png -- I like this guys home screen May 10 11:16:19 I still wish he wouldn't put them in extras though ...

May 10 11:17:27 My bad May 10 11:18:19 please anyone knows a document where to find guidance on testting a gtk_helloworld app in the nokia-maemo device without entering on the packaging process stuff? thanks May 10 11:19:03 r0gcas: just copy the binary and run it? May 10 11:20:09 it doesn't work for me put line 1:syntax error "(" unepected May 10 11:20:46 if you use autotools, the binary is in .libs May 10 11:20:46 r0gcas: looks like you're trying to run a binary compiled for the wrong architecture. May 10 11:21:17 r0gcas: are you sure you've compiled it under the ARMEL target in scratchbox? May 10 11:22:30 yes first i compiled in x86 target but then i compiled the same source code in arm target with the same compiling instruction. i did well? May 10 11:23:24 make clean the build first :) May 10 11:23:41 and whatever other magic spells you do to get back to pristine source May 10 11:23:48 are you using autotools or not? May 10 11:24:12 i have to use the same source code and compiling shell instruction as under x86 target? May 10 11:24:35 sure May 10 11:25:00 Then copy the binary to your N900, and from a console: run-standalone.sh ./gtk_helloworld May 10 11:25:03 Or whatever it's called. May 10 11:26:29 no i don't use autotools i think i use 'gcc -Wall ´--cflags --libs...' something like that May 10 11:28:58 sECuRe i will try it but i will suspect the same lack of success. but if not i will thank it to you May 10 11:30:36 Aficionados of Facebook punch-up Mafia Wars will no longer be able to deploy pit bulls as part of their arsenal, following intervention by whale-hugging animal rights outfit PETA.

May 10 12:29:09 adeus: if I understand correctly the browse button is disabled May 10 12:29:30 marsje: Check if javascript is disabled in settings. May 10 12:29:59 the page has no javascript May 10 12:30:04 X-Fade: it should not require javascript... it's a simple POST-form May 10 12:30:28 amigadave, ping? May 10 12:30:34 dneary: pong May 10 12:30:47 Thanks SpeedEvil but i can't see the repo mentioned here, just a deb file so far... May 10 12:30:51 amigadave, I saw you categorising pages in the flasher docs May 10 12:31:02 dneary: let me guess, all about to get overwritten? :P May 10 12:31:23 amigadave, I will be reimporting all those docs this afternoon I hope - so I'm afraid we might lose the changes :} May 10 12:31:30 heh May 10 12:31:37 alright, i will hold off for now May 10 12:31:37 X-Fade, Do you have time to help me out this afternoon? May 10 12:32:06 dneary: Depends on what it is and how long it takes ;) May 10 12:32:22 I'm not too keen on writing pages live into the wiki with the docs conversion tools, but I'd like to get Jarmo's docs into wiki.maemo.org today May 10 12:32:46 I would like to have root run a back-up of the wiki first, and then run the script to install the docs May 10 12:32:59 I can set everything up, it should just be running the right command line May 10 12:33:03 dneary: import it in a local wiki install and export the pages then? May 10 12:33:15 dneary: That is how daniel does it. May 10 12:33:20 (or alternatively, if you know who has root on wiki.maemo.org...) May 10 12:33:41 dneary: can't we use some kind of git repo at the backend? May 10 12:33:46 dneary: Has nothing to do with root, it lives in a db, right? May 10 12:33:47 allowing merges? May 10 12:33:49 X-Fade, I guess you didn't pay attention to the maemo-community thread last month when Jarmo gave out to me because I did that? May 10 12:34:05 X-Fade, There are a collection of things - DB permissions and filesystem permissions May 10 12:34:10 Images need uploading too May 10 12:34:32 And backing up the wiki doesn't work for an underprivileged user like me May 10 12:34:49 dneary: I don't trust Jarmo's tools. May 10 12:35:19 Can you say so on the list then, please, because I'm stuck between a rock & a hard place with docs to import May 10 12:35:22 So we better make full backups yes. May 10 12:35:42 lbt, For what? The wiki? May 10 12:36:08 or as part of the import process May 10 12:36:24 X-Fade, There is a back-up script that saves just pages & history May 10 12:36:37 wiki-> files; new docs->files; merge files; files->wiki May 10 12:36:46 That's the one I'd like to do. I did a mysqldomp before, but that has a lot more (privileged) information in there too May 10 12:37:14 lbt, Ah, I see what youo're getting at May 10 12:37:34 X-Fade, So - can I take a ticket & get some of your time later? May 10 12:37:47 I don't want to interrupt you if you are doing something else May 10 12:38:28 dneary: Always doing multiple things, so don't wait for that ;) May 10 12:38:52 dneary: Give me an hour or so, then I will look at it with you.

May 10 13:06:34 Khertan_Home: not that it really matters May 10 13:06:49 just unnecessary slow May 10 13:07:02 if there is a chance , i wanna use n900 May 10 13:07:06 bs=1M :) May 10 13:07:07 for such things I usually use bs=1M May 10 13:07:24 yes ... but for obvious reason ... with 1M i always got errors May 10 13:07:33 duh May 10 13:07:35 (i think this is due to my stick) May 10 13:07:52 nah, you seen it's buffered anyway May 10 13:08:09 (and it s the cmd use by mic-creator) May 10 13:08:30 is it possible to make Web server on n900 May 10 13:08:57 and if it weren't buffered I'd particularly suggest a bs>64k May 10 13:09:55 but i think that if mic creator use speciffically 4096, i think they have a good reason May 10 13:10:28 don't think so, it's just the buffer size May 10 13:11:06 of the dd internal buffer May 10 13:11:53 for machines low on RAM I'd understand a bs<100k May 10 13:13:14 woodong50__: sure it's 'possible' May 10 13:15:03 woodong50__: though a server needs two things: fast disk reads and lots of RAM. Both not exactly the strong points of N900 May 10 13:16:34 n900 is very fast at small block reads May 10 13:16:43 aah, and of course a good fat network connection would help a lot May 10 13:16:52 And ~10mbytes/s of read is plenty May 10 13:16:59 For many servers May 10 13:17:28 c'mon Web(!) server on N900...

May 10 13:21:18 thanx May 10 13:21:35 * Khertan_Home didn't understand the question May 10 13:21:55 DocScrutinizer: like... sheevaplug, but this one really amazed me regarding the price: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.26320 ... it's 250 MHz ARM with 32 MB of RAM and ethernet+usb May 10 13:22:37 http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml ->We strongly suggest that you avoid configuring your channel to "auto-op".

May 10 13:30:26 one of those is cheap enough to be purchased on a whim, another not quite so. May 10 13:30:29 DocScrutinizer, thanx - that makes me happy — like this http://leprastuff.ru/data/img/20100510/25a2a2c745816d57f213df152f03e719.gif May 10 13:31:42 [B[B[B May 10 13:31:48 ?

May 10 13:49:59 I think patents are evil. May 10 13:50:08 I'm just saying what Apple are doing is illegal. May 10 13:50:18 Patents that are granted on a basis of rubberstamp are bad.

May 10 13:51:01 For example you can patent painting metal May 10 13:51:07 you can? May 10 13:51:10 wow May 10 13:51:10 good idea May 10 13:51:12 but you can then seperately patent painting ships made of metal May 10 13:51:19 painting cars made of metal May 10 13:51:20 ...

May 10 14:25:18 noobmonk3y <~noobmonk3@cpc2-lanc4-0-0-cust67.brig.cable.ntl.com> was last seen on IRC in channel #maemo, 3d 18h 2m 17s ago, saying: 'lol :P'.

May 10 14:26:14 DocScrutinizerYes May 10 14:27:01 hmm, so you suggest I'll STFU and get a custom CSS for wiki.maemo.org to work with Konqueror and 1280*768 ? :-D May 10 14:27:21 It's annoying for me - also on 1024x768 May 10 14:27:39 Those resolutions are so last century. May 10 14:27:47 the 'index' on the right covering a third of the edit-box May 10 14:27:52 Urgh, this class is looking like an evil robot, can't wait until I've finished this module and refactor this horrible beast! May 10 14:28:02 DocScrutinizer: Not at all May 10 14:28:08 Just making you aware of that possibility May 10 14:28:12 X-Fade: my laptop is of 2008 though :-P May 10 14:28:21 can someone please help me with the partition table?

I have, however, documented how a MediaWiki page gets rendered, and there are pointers to the sources for all of these files, and (you guessed it) patches are most welcome :) May 10 14:30:24 bugtracker? May 10 14:30:39 DocScrutinizer: https://bugs.maemo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=maemo.org%20Website May 10 14:30:44 aaah May 10 14:30:45 k May 10 14:31:40 dneary: thanks May 10 14:33:44 Hi May 10 14:34:43 alterego: there is use for some people but i think we can show that such battles are inherently wasteful to economic prosperity May 10 14:35:12 pupnik: in regards to patent suits between large companies? May 10 14:35:14 Sure May 10 14:35:25 k May 10 14:35:34 I'm just pro-anti-apple, anything that tarnishes their reputation is good in my books ;) May 10 14:36:00 ok hey they aint all bad. at least the os is good May 10 14:36:05 I want Nokia to win, so people can see that Apple are money theiving bitches :P May 10 14:36:37 i have a lot of respect for the way nokia plays. that is just increasing over time May 10 14:37:24 but there is this thing called the US government. ... .... May 10 14:37:28 trolololo May 10 14:37:54 Hahahah May 10 14:39:00 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NPdVpx5CgE May 10 14:39:51 That's somewhat cruel ... May 10 14:39:55 i find that having google talk and skype account always connected in 3g drain a lot of battery May 10 14:40:08 anybody have this kind of behavior too ? May 10 14:42:22 E0x: it will reconnect more than having them off ... havent seen data May 10 14:42:40 pupnik: what ? May 10 14:42:46 alterego: I have not decided which one causes more long term damage. What they do to the dog, or what the youtube captions of the dog do to our brains. May 10 14:43:04 are you travelling from cell to cell much E0x ? May 10 14:43:10 E0x: continual 3G usage, even if it's just checking facebook will drain battery, might be worth forcing 2G until you need the extra throughput. May 10 14:43:44 pupnik: oh you mean cell tower reconection May 10 14:43:45 ? May 10 14:43:47 I found my battery life is considerably lowered when I have a constant 3G connection and I have accounts online .. May 10 14:44:18 yeah, it's no more than a few hours before the battery is flat May 10 14:44:25 alterego: i find a post ( looking for it again ) that is because google and skype protocol do a lot of chat May 10 14:44:33 I sure hope PR1.2 improves the situation May 10 14:44:38 ( a lot of traffic ) May 10 14:44:51 TomaszD: Unlikely. May 10 14:45:02 TomaszD: Oh. Well - there are a couple of reasons. May 10 14:45:17 TomaszD: The bit about 3G using a lot of power when active - little can be done about it. May 10 14:45:27 TomaszD: It just does - it's not the CPU that's active. May 10 14:45:38 E0x: like I said, you don't get so much of a hit on 2G, if you explicitly force 2G until you need to use the service properly. That will help substantially. May 10 14:45:46 so the telepathy plugins cannot be optimized better? May 10 14:45:47 TomaszD: Better control of external traffic may be possible May 10 14:45:53 TomaszD: no. May 10 14:46:16 Well, I'll rephrase, yes, more than likely, but the improvements would be miniscule :) May 10 14:46:17 tale: what exactly do you want to do? May 10 14:46:24 TomaszD: The problem with many plugins is that - for example - if you connect to two IRC servers - they will - randomly send 'ping' requests - at - say - 30 second intervals. May 10 14:46:34 alterego: ok May 10 14:46:34 so the flaw is only in hardware, as in a battery hungry 3G modem and/or weak battery for purpose May 10 14:46:35 thx May 10 14:46:57 TomaszD: it's a mixture of everything, but the battery use is the 3G modem yes. May 10 14:47:00 TomaszD: This means that you get a ping every 15 seconds on average - which will keep the modem in 'high power' mode a large fraction of the time on 3G May 10 14:47:12 http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Hardware_Power_Consumption May 10 14:47:46 so every IM account needs to send some keep-alive packets and if we send them less often we'll get disconnected anyway, yes? May 10 14:47:46 This is why I force mine to only use 2G, unless I'm actively using the connection. I might write a daemon that does an auto-switch when it detects a "high" load. May 10 14:48:04 The device idle - apart from a 30s ping over 3g - uses the same amount of power as it does active with the screen at mid brightness. May 10 14:48:13 TomaszD: yes. For some protocols at least. May 10 14:48:37 TomaszD: For others, it may be possible to optimise. It also may be possible to use stuff like proxies for example. May 10 14:49:20 2G - for comparison purposes - uses one third of the power with a 30s ping May 10 14:49:25 alterego: maybe a switch when you open "someapps" May 10 14:49:29 like webbrowser May 10 14:49:35 Just give me a better battery. ;P May 10 14:49:39 so in order for this to be a really always-on-data whole day device we need to wait for better 3G modems and better battery technology May 10 14:50:06 TomaszD: Proxies can do a lot. May 10 14:50:12 E0x: My issue is with apps that are always open ;) It wouldn't be to hard to monitor usage, and when it exceeds a point, for say a couple of seconds, it switches to 3G May 10 14:50:28 Unfortunately, that switch may affect some connections whilst in process. May 10 14:50:41 yes May 10 14:50:42 the thing is, I like 3G call quality :) May 10 14:50:48 I don't want a compromise May 10 14:50:59 TomaszD: then look at what I've been suggesting :P May 10 14:51:24 TomaszD: For example - if in the above irc example - the proxy talks to the IRC servers, and only sends you a packet to keep your connection alive - say once every 5 min - or when something actually happens. And it might - for example - batch messages in channels that are not directed to you for 5 min. May 10 14:51:35 TomaszD: When the screen is off May 10 14:52:06 SpeedEvil, I do understand the concept, but that won't work for skype, and you only need one rogue plugin to fuck up the party May 10 14:52:10 SpeedEvil: that can be done at protocol level i think May 10 14:52:16 E0x: Sure. May 10 14:52:21 so a improved in the protocol can help too May 10 14:52:24 E0x: If you write the protocol. May 10 14:52:44 E0x: Good luck trying to get a powersaving batched IRC protocol rolled out worldwide to all servers. May 10 14:53:13 SpeedEvil: true but my idea was more May 10 14:53:18 for IM protocols May 10 14:53:29 i invented a general purpose IM/Chat protocol May 10 14:53:34 telepathy one May 10 14:53:35 designed to minimize traffic as much as possible May 10 14:53:40 and even invented a compression algorithm for it May 10 14:53:44 ... May 10 14:53:49 compression = more CPU use = more power May 10 14:53:51 :P May 10 14:53:55 packet size isn't as relevant I think May 10 14:53:57 luke-jr: Err - wrong May 10 14:53:58 luke-jr: you're mistaken, radio time is what costs May 10 14:54:01 Unfortunately, you'd probably need a driver for every IM protocol, in which case, why not just use one of those demultiplexing services that do all the IM chat and give you a unified interface... May 10 14:54:05 redeeman: nope. May 10 14:54:13 being awake is what costs. May 10 14:54:24 Also, just point your browser to the IRC log if available and hit refresh when you wanna read it :D May 10 14:54:29 alterego: there's only one worthwhile IM protocol :) May 10 14:54:30 redeeman: A ping - 64 bytes - over 3g - at 30s intervals - uses 136mA May 10 14:54:47 so use znc May 10 14:54:48 redeeman: A ping - 8000 bytes at 30s intervals - is not measurably different May 10 14:54:55 alterego: hmm that can be cool , a jabber account in some public server that have gateway May 10 14:55:01 for other protocolo May 10 14:55:03 SpeedEvil: which seems to prove my point? May 10 14:55:04 This is why I use screen :D May 10 14:55:05 redeeman: It's within 5% certainly. May 10 14:55:13 SSH is very bandwidth friendly when not in use. May 10 14:55:13 ah May 10 14:55:15 hmm May 10 14:55:22 znc + bitlbee is where it's at May 10 14:55:37 redeeman: Over 3G - 2G is a bit better at powersaving. May 10 14:55:40 SpeedEvil: the cpu can impossibly use more when awake than 3g May 10 14:55:54 redeeman: ? May 10 14:56:12 redeeman: The power usage above is with the screen and the CPU idle. May 10 14:56:13 The 3G modem takes more power than the CPU? May 10 14:56:15 im not sure i trust your data regarding 3g battery usage May 10 14:56:44 3g is better if you are to download a large file May 10 14:56:48 redeeman: Fair enough - this was polling the bq27200 battery managment chip - averaging over a period of 5 minutes the 5s interval measurements. May 10 14:56:55 Funnyface: that's not the point :P May 10 14:57:00 but for just IM and some small web browsing.. May 10 14:57:00 redeeman: With the CPU idle, screen off. May 10 14:57:03 2G is way better May 10 14:57:04 jabber server with gateway for google talk and MSN example just need one "still alive ping" so in theory that can help minimize the impact in the 3g not ? May 10 14:57:24 Web browsing for me is painful on 2G ... May 10 14:57:27 IM is fine. May 10 14:57:28 E0x: It depends on the protocol details. May 10 14:57:41 E0x: you actually need to look at tcpdumps May 10 14:57:50 i mean you only will need the jabber server still alive ping May 10 14:57:58 and not one for google and msn May 10 14:58:00 too May 10 14:58:19 E0x: If the jabber server is acting like a proxy - then yes May 10 14:58:34 yes , the jabber public server act like that May 10 14:58:36 redeeman: What's your argument with the above numbers? May 10 14:58:37 didn't had a chance to trace IM trafic, but it's definitely not doable to have it enabled all day for me May 10 14:59:02 if I enable my jabber account in the morning, the bat will die before the evening :/ May 10 14:59:03 you create a account , and define the other account ( if the jabber server have that gateway for that protocolo ) May 10 14:59:09 for an active IRC channel you can forget about it, because it keeps re enabling the radio all the time May 10 14:59:39 but for MSN where you get a message every once in a while it's all good :P May 10 15:00:31 put the phone next to a stereo so it catches the interference, then join an empty IRC channel, send one message and see how long the radio is active for just for that one message :P May 10 15:01:48 anyway, I installed some 2G/3G switcher app which can switch while the data connection is active so it doesn't drop your connection to everything May 10 15:02:01 I keep it on 2G all the time unless I am going to do something that specifically needs 3G May 10 15:02:23 Funnyface: that's exactly what I do, though I'm thinking of automating it to switch when the load is high for more than a few seconds. May 10 15:02:31 So I don't have to use the applet anymore. May 10 15:02:35 :P May 10 15:02:58 yes, another feature I miss is that it should enable 3G for internet when I receive a phone call May 10 15:03:12 because my carrier doesn't support GSM calls and data over the same radio May 10 15:03:15 Funnyface: what app do the switch without data drop ? May 10 15:03:31 E0x: it was called 2g/3g/dual or something May 10 15:03:42 can't remember, but if you sort by name it should be near the top May 10 15:03:44 i have that and do the drop of the connection May 10 15:03:57 when i do the switch May 10 15:03:59 it doesn't, it dies for like 6-7 secs May 10 15:04:03 but it doesn't disconnect you May 10 15:04:10 hmm May 10 15:04:12 i will try it May 10 15:04:28 when you switch, it doesn't drop you from IRC for example, things just get delayed by a few secs May 10 15:04:57 Funnyface: that's actually a problem with 2G, 2G only allows voice OR data, not simultaneous. Where as 3G allows both at the same time. May 10 15:05:16 hmm that is a problem May 10 15:05:17 alterego: as far as I know, the N900's GSM radio should allow both May 10 15:05:18 for me May 10 15:05:23 FunnyfaceThat depends on ISPs annoyingly May 10 15:05:29 i can't then allow have my IM connected May 10 15:05:33 in 2g May 10 15:05:33 yes, what speed said May 10 15:05:41 E0x: yes you can, it'll just stall whilst you're on the phone :P May 10 15:05:52 E0x: if it's a short phone call, it will be restored afterwards May 10 15:05:55 oh ok May 10 15:06:06 cool then May 10 15:06:07 it depends if the break is so long that your TCP connections time out or not May 10 15:07:13 hmm what blackberry does for keep battery consumtion fine and alway have IM connected ? May 10 15:07:19 tcp connection timeouts are insanely long by default.. it's highly unlikely yhat they timeout May 10 15:07:24 or do something like in fly switch ? May 10 15:08:02 Hello May 10 15:08:18 CAn some help me with nokia map loader. n900 win7 May 10 15:08:27 talking many minutes at tcp level May 10 15:08:40 Jiri-: is it supported?

May 10 15:09:45 * SpeedEvil preferred 10 min.

May 10 15:14:45 You need to install the maps separately for it. May 10 15:14:58 THey're in ovi store May 10 15:15:19 well, I got them from "another source" May 10 15:15:21 :p May 10 15:15:32 I'm not sure what you mean by "lacking" May 10 15:16:12 well, at my location, it doesn't contain small streets and things like that, only main roads and cities May 10 15:16:20 ah, got ya May 10 15:16:27 Funnyface: Openstreetmap! May 10 15:16:29 :) May 10 15:16:40 Funnyface: Where are you again, I forgot. May 10 15:16:51 SpeedEvil: OSM doesn't even have my street on the map :P May 10 15:16:53 Norway May 10 15:17:03 Oh no. May 10 15:17:05 That's odd May 10 15:17:13 Funnyface: well - fix it! :) osm2go++ May 10 15:17:31 :P May 10 15:17:37 All the Finnish streets and roads that I've needed so far have been there. May 10 15:18:06 MiXu-: perhaps you have a different map pack May 10 15:18:13 i'd pay the 60CUR or whatever and get the other vendor's product May 10 15:18:19 I've got the Nordic map pack May 10 15:18:23 they probably offer real support among other things May 10 15:18:29 like, you'll have detailed maps of finland, but only main roads in the rest of europe May 10 15:18:30 ah ok May 10 15:18:30 well i just want to have some kind of map whenn going abroad... May 10 15:18:39 Bought it for 39,90e May 10 15:18:42 but well like I said, I got them from.. ahem.. "another source" :P May 10 15:18:45 hope google port the map app for meego a least May 10 15:18:51 so I guess those maps aren't nordic May 10 15:18:54 SpeedEvil: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10149 May 10 15:18:55 Bug 10149: CSS for editing renders a messed up page on 1280*768 May 10 15:19:04 well poland May 10 15:19:42 i try that sygic from "another source" if it better than ovi maps May 10 15:20:37 can we remove the notice about pr1.2 and instead change it to a generic block on pirated copyright materials May 10 15:21:23 imo Sygic is well worth paying for May 10 15:22:17 i test it first and then decide after that May 10 15:22:38 lcuk: should probably highlight DocScrutinizer for that ;o May 10 15:22:53 nah... May 10 15:23:03 i wasnt aware they had a test version Jiri- would you show me the link to their site where its offered? May 10 15:23:25 as long as it isn't bogged down with DRM crap and locked to the device's ID etc it might be worth paying for yes May 10 15:23:44 Funnyface: There's no DRM May 10 15:23:46 and if they allow you to download a binary copy May 10 15:24:45 lcuk i think the "test" version filetype is .torrent May 10 15:25:24 Jiri-, do you write your own software? May 10 15:25:32 no i don't May 10 15:25:57 i use to about 15 year ago but not anymore May 10 15:26:07 There is a test version of Sygic May 10 15:26:12 It's free for 7 days May 10 15:26:23 ok i didn't know that May 10 15:27:11 MiXu-, from where? May 10 15:28:39 lcuk: ovi store May 10 15:29:05 hmm, which means you can use a tool to reset the trial every week? lol May 10 15:29:37 Doing that would be just teasing yourself. May 10 15:30:08 my mate is running an "extended trial" of norton antivirus :P May 10 15:30:19 Because that's probably not any more legal than just stealing it. May 10 15:32:57 and this chan has a lot of members that earn their living by selling software. You won't gain a lot of friends by suggesting such practice May 10 15:33:57 hi people May 10 15:34:14 and since the gpl and most open source is supported by strong copyright laws, even people in the free software crowd will look down upon such practices May 10 15:34:37 I'm proud to say I haven't pirated anything on Maemo. :) May 10 15:35:11 MiXu-: thats because there is nothing to pirate here (maybe except sygic mobile) May 10 15:35:20 MiXu-: good job :) May 10 15:35:22 and joikuspot (which I also bought) May 10 15:35:59 I don't really have a need for either. May 10 15:36:02 hmmm May 10 15:36:07 hey hello all May 10 15:36:12 I'm happy using the USB connector for my internet tethering needs. May 10 15:36:15 im new at this May 10 15:36:22 is hard to program on maemo May 10 15:36:31 i like to take some programming courses May 10 15:37:00 Learn Qt May 10 15:37:07 qt May 10 15:37:09 ?? May 10 15:37:16 MacDrunk: there are better platforms to start learning programming, for sure May 10 15:37:35 yea like ???? May 10 15:37:44 c++ or so May 10 15:37:46 MacDrunk: write code for desktop. use Qt for it May 10 15:37:47 If you wanna code for maemo start from: http://qt.nokia.com May 10 15:38:03 Write a desktop app and then port it to Maemo. May 10 15:38:20 ok May 10 15:39:47 MacDrunk: see, the maemo development tools are not exactly easy to master even for experienced programmers May 10 15:40:20 hmm is there a way to specify that a certain mime type should be opened with a diff tool? on the n900 that is naturally... May 10 15:40:47 ruskie: would think so May 10 15:41:15 well first ill take a look at the qt tutorials May 10 15:41:33 then ill take a basic proggaming course May 10 15:41:38 first of all May 10 15:41:48 i havent a clue on how to program May 10 15:42:02 so i better start form zero May 10 15:42:14 MacDrunk: Qt is a toolkit for C++. So if you can't find a Qt course, take a C++ course. May 10 15:42:16 MacDrunk: then by all means avoid looking at qt for now May 10 15:42:50 MacDrunk: and I'd even recommend not to start with C++ either May 10 15:43:26 Python+Qt/PySide :) May 10 15:43:36 Nice gentle introduction into programming ... May 10 15:43:39 you might want to start with a 'simple' programming language, like C May 10 15:43:47 anyhow, I gotta get a bus, later #maemo May 10 15:43:48 or BASIC? May 10 15:43:55 simple... lols May 10 15:43:58 DocScrutinizer: C++ is simpler then C May 10 15:44:03 nooooooo, no basic May 10 15:44:11 hrw-uds: LOL May 10 15:44:11 hrw-uds: lies May 10 15:44:20 if you do not touch classes, inheritance but only write functions May 10 15:44:23 :) May 10 15:44:26 * alterego waves May 10 15:44:33 My first programming language was Java, but now I wish I had learnt C++ first. May 10 15:44:37 i think it's better to start with c++. c++ can do c too May 10 15:44:52 C forces few things which C++ allows May 10 15:45:03 and it can be simple enough May 10 15:45:10 like declaring variables anywhere which is C++ but not C May 10 15:45:10 tbh I'd like to suggest assembler to everybody, for starting programming May 10 15:45:15 lol May 10 15:45:24 DocScrutinizer: pic16xxx had simple asm May 10 15:45:33 DocScrutinizer: To make sure they give up? :D May 10 15:45:37 lol May 10 15:45:55 asm forces you to learn how it all works under the hood. but it sure is painful... May 10 15:45:55 no, to get the right approach to what programmin May 10 15:46:00 g is all about May 10 15:46:18 tripzero: ++ May 10 15:46:49 Majority of programmers don't need to know about asm May 10 15:47:29 MiXu-: that's a common error May 10 15:48:07 leading to absurdities like drivers written in C++ and taking minutes to initialize May 10 15:48:08 Majority of programmers also suck May 10 15:48:16 tripzero: exactly May 10 15:48:27 tripzero: True May 10 15:48:30 i should know, i'm one of those who suck :P May 10 15:48:38 Me too May 10 15:49:17 But that's the point. It's ok if majority sucks, as long as there are the experts that can fix things when other's don't know how. May 10 15:49:31 * DocScrutinizer summons raster May 10 15:49:37 In a perfect world things would be different of course May 10 15:50:03 i am a perfect world i was a king :D May 10 15:50:58 so... is pr1.2 out yet? May 10 15:51:11 But if you look at the most used programming languages: In addition to C and C++ (where it's good if you know asm) there's Java, PHP, Javascript, Python, SQL, Perl, C#... No need for asm afaik. May 10 15:51:11 asking for /kick? May 10 15:51:20 i just got done battling my phone with the droid over the weekend when I visited my family May 10 15:51:49 my bro thought the front facing camera was cool. too bad there's no software to use it yet :S May 10 15:52:25 MiXu-: ASM isn't about using it in SQL, it's about learning concepts May 10 15:52:46 ...and writing drivers and other low level stuff that you want fast May 10 15:53:02 ~pr1.2 May 10 15:53:02 i heard pr1.2 is not here yet. Stop asking. Read the topic Just stop asking. Read the topic. AND STOP ASKING. If you ask then release moves by another week, so do not ask. May 10 15:53:20 DocScrutinizer: I suppose you can learn those concepts (good programming practices, etc.) even if you don't know about asm? May 10 15:54:20 Of course it never hurts to know what's under the hood. I'm just saying that starting from asm is quite extreme. May 10 15:54:41 hmm fun... 13.7MB on / May 10 15:54:50 MiXu-: you *can* but alas in E.G. C++ nothing is forcing you to learn them, and you'll end with code that's abysmal ugly wrt machine optimization and a number of other aspects May 10 15:56:21 MiXu-: starting from C++ is what I call extreme. Learning about object instantiation while no idea whatsoever about the difference between call-by-ref and call-by-value May 10 15:56:47 MiXu-, raw binary is a bit extreme, assembler teaches you the fundemental building blocks that ALL code is written using no matter the language May 10 15:57:05 lcuk: exactly! thanks mate May 10 15:58:55 well later all May 10 15:59:06 im off to look for a programming school May 10 15:59:31 thanks for the advice May 10 15:59:33 I see what you guys are saying. May 10 16:01:11 I was always recommended to start directly on something like C or C++ instead of a crap language, because it'd be harder to learn C/C++ later after learning the crap one :p May 10 16:01:21 tripzero: mplayer tv:// -tv device=/dev/video1 May 10 16:01:31 MiXu-: by all means avoid things like garbage collectors, implicit typecasts and esp implicit var declarations in the language you start with May 10 16:01:34 Funnyface: Exactly May 10 16:01:58 chem|st, ehhe, true May 10 16:02:08 so what? You won't tell me assembler is a crap language? May 10 16:02:16 basic is a crap language May 10 16:02:26 assembly is probably the least crappy one May 10 16:02:27 tripzero: many ways how to display front cam, even stream it... May 10 16:02:32 while vb is the most crappy one :p May 10 16:02:47 vbulliten? May 10 16:02:59 chem|st, but not via skype/google voice/talk :( May 10 16:03:04 MS visual basic May 10 16:03:12 bah May 10 16:03:12 sucks May 10 16:03:57 In my books the efficiency of a language also counts. If I write a 1KLOC app in Qt and it'd take me 1000KLOC in asm, I'd say asm is a crap language. But those numbers aren't based on anything. Just an example.

May 10 16:06:14 DocScrutinizer, i spent 10 years as a vb guy May 10 16:06:17 C++ is somewhere in between the later 2 May 10 16:06:30 but i never stopped coding like it was c :) May 10 16:07:14 lcuk: as long as you touched vb after you finished your programming elementary school, you're not doomed ;-P May 10 16:07:56 DocScrutinizer, zx spectrum got me into identifying faults, amiga sas c got me into coding May 10 16:08:14 lcuk: :-D May 10 16:08:37 68k is the nicest flavour of asm ive ever used May 10 16:08:58 looking at x86 asm made me weep May 10 16:09:07 yep May 10 16:10:43 andre__, ping? May 10 16:10:56 dneary, pong May 10 16:11:19 http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/10/canonical-shows-off-unity-desktop-ubuntu-light-for-oems/ May 10 16:11:27 andre__, I was wondering, which questions of mine were you thinking of when we talked about a documentation product for bugzilla? May 10 16:12:14 dneary, hmm? you mean my email response to jarmo why I haven't created it yet? May 10 16:12:29 andre__, Yes, that one May 10 16:12:55 ah. was about the workflow. if you think everything's clear now I can create it this week May 10 16:24:34 The workflow? Ah - you mean when someone goes "New bug" what the title on the next screen should say? May 10 16:24:43 Sorry - I need to refresh my memory on this May 10 16:26:46 dneary, nope, refered more to technical stuff (like copying content). but that seems to be solved now May 10 16:28:26 Is there a function for camera to take photo in 5 seconds for say a time when i just want to set the phone on a platform and take a photo including myself May 10 16:29:42 it's a very simple feature May 10 16:29:45 andre__, The last thing I can find is "proposed reorganisation of ..." May 10 16:30:06 dneary, I think that's the status currently, yepp May 10 16:30:12 crazyhorss, I don't know if a way to do it with the N900. May 10 16:30:30 andre__, Then if we could put that proposal into practice soon, that would be cool May 10 16:30:38 crazyhorss: thought same ~12h ago May 10 16:30:42 dneary, ok May 10 16:30:43 I'd like to start using Bugzilla to track wiki gardening tasks May 10 16:31:02 Rather than trying to maintain a wiki page as a TODO list May 10 16:31:07 Which sucks badly May 10 16:31:39 crazyhorss, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=38275 , http://maemo.org/community/brainstorm/view/camera_timer_for_taking_timed_shots/ May 10 16:32:26 dneary, is that the "wikify useful stuff posted in t.m.o" thread or more general? May 10 16:32:32 crazyhorss, so, as andre__ says, there's a way to script it, but not using the camera app May 10 16:32:40 slightly more general May 10 16:35:34 wow, camera pumps up cpu to 100 May 10 16:37:00 hmm, bike gloves made in Pakistan May 10 17:03:38 Hello May 10 17:06:08 X-Fade, Anything new wrt python2.3 issue and unrecognized option ? May 10 17:17:38 anybody herealready had a look into it? how's camera notfied about cam_launch button press? May 10 17:18:22 dbus? sysfs? direct readout of the SoC GPIO register? May 10 17:18:37 I looked on dbus a while back, and diddn't see anything May 10 17:18:55 hi anybody there? i would need help with scratchbox. what i want is to enter scratchbox specifying the target for compilation before entering. May 10 17:18:56 I diddn't look at it very closely. May 10 17:18:59 there's a msg on dbus May 10 17:19:07 szstembus May 10 17:19:24 I'm pretty sure it's dbus May 10 17:20:09 reedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_cam_focus; interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=Condition string "ButtonPressed" May 10 17:20:19 gpio May 10 17:20:35 Well - of course the lowest level is fpio May 10 17:20:41 [ 8253.836700] cam_focus (GPIO 68) is now active May 10 17:20:46 what watches the GPUIO and pokes the camera though May 10 17:20:55 cam_focus is 'half-pressed' May 10 17:21:14 [ 8268.757873] cam_launch (GPIO 69) is now inactive May 10 17:21:16 yes May 10 17:21:34 I suppose it's logical that the camera would half-wake on cam_focus - to get ready for the likely shortly upcoming press event May 10 17:21:36 I 'just' want to fake a buttonpress event for cam_GUI ;) May 10 17:21:42 i am sorry to interrupt, but i only need to know how to enter scratchbox specifying before the compilation target May 10 17:21:48 DocScrutinizer: why? May 10 17:21:50 SpeedEvil: I know May 10 17:22:00 r0gcas: /me has no clue. May 10 17:22:08 SpeedEvil: timer shoot May 10 17:22:09 ah May 10 17:22:54 DocScrutinizer51: would it not be far easier to use gstreamer direcgtly? May 10 17:23:24 should scrutinize camgui's dbus methods - maybe there's shoot? May 10 17:24:00 alterego: for simply operating the cam chip yes May 10 17:24:22 but I want augmented camgui functionality May 10 17:25:34 DocScrutinizer51: what functionality? everything can be done through gstreamer surely? May 10 17:25:55 alterego: and I don't want to reinvent whole camera GUI May 10 17:26:13 alterego: As I understand it, overlay is hard May 10 17:26:16 oh you want a UI :) May 10 17:26:55 well, you could write you own source filter and put it in the camera config file inplace of v4lsrc May 10 17:27:16 Hrm, xevent feedback wouldn't work though :) May 10 17:27:35 hi, i am sorry to interrupt, daes anybody happens when wants to change target in scratchbox a message like "first close other scratchbox session" appears? how do you resolve this? May 10 17:28:17 think you can specify the sink too though. not sure that helps. May 10 17:29:32 It's nice to see tmo filled with [Announce] threads again May 10 17:30:02 alterego: nah, I want the original cam app. just make it shoot a photo May 10 17:30:37 Are you trying to augment the camera ui? May 10 17:31:00 but keep all the setup, storing etc options May 10 17:31:06 right May 10 17:31:10 alterego: exactly May 10 17:31:12 If you can augment the cam ui, let me know May 10 17:31:29 Me too :D May 10 17:32:33 gdb goes a long way ;-P May 10 17:32:50 as does hexedit May 10 17:33:37 :):-( May 10 17:34:14 topic: scratchbox. problem: how to change compilation target when a message like 'first close other scratchbox session' appears. can anyone help? please..

May 10 17:40:27 sb-conf select FREMANTLE_X86/ARMEL May 10 17:40:27 andre__: MohammadAG: done May 10 17:41:52 thanks, but sb-conf select FREMANTLE_X86/ARMEL, you do it when you already are in scratchbox, and sometime happens that when you try this a message appears saying you must close first your actual session in scratchbox, do you know how to resolve this? May 10 17:42:34 sb-menu and hit killall May 10 17:42:36 last option May 10 17:43:08 yes, it is what i did and worked fine, but now it doesn't work. maybe it is a bug and have to restart May 10 17:43:58 never happened to me tbh May 10 17:44:04 killall always solves it here May 10 17:44:49 * SpeedEvil sighs at the grammar of spammers. May 10 17:44:55 'Real and eligable' ? May 10 17:45:12 ok, thanks for your help MohammadAG, i don't know why this doesn't work now, but i suppose it will work in the future. goodbye and have a nice day May 10 17:45:29 DocScrutinizer51: gst-inspect camerabin looks interesting...

May 10 17:47:04 Not a good sign not to have any available SQL drivers. May 10 17:47:18 DocScrutinizer: still probably not what you need though. May 10 17:47:31 naw, prolly not May 10 17:47:41 interesting stuff though May 10 17:48:19 yeah, if you use it as a sole element, it just shows the camera, but you can use it to tke videos or images :D May 10 17:48:45 Maybe I should rewrite camera-ui ;) May 10 17:49:25 alterego: Plz! May 10 17:49:36 :) May 10 17:49:37 Also integrate 'flashlight' into it May 10 17:50:11 alterego: feels like ALSA, somewhat May 10 17:50:31 I'd make it far more modular. I might start working on it when I finish my current project. just need a few more days on this one :) May 10 17:51:12 alterego: I'd happily help on reviewing the architecture May 10 17:53:04 DocScrutinizer: it's date ;) May 10 17:54:06 bbiab May 10 18:00:47 hi, i continue with scratchbox stuff. does anyone know how to execute killall from the command-line? i try kill -n 15 but it doesn't work May 10 18:01:14 r0gcas, it only works if you have ninjas on your tail May 10 18:01:17 killall ninjas May 10 18:01:40 killall ninjas? i will try May 10 18:01:48 and most liekly failing for you because you arent being chased, or root or something May 10 18:02:01 r0gcas, sb- killall May 10 18:02:06 ninjas: no process killed May 10 18:02:31 hey, you can't kill ninjas May 10 18:02:49 pirates can May 10 18:03:02 damn May 10 18:03:04 grrr May 10 18:03:10 *arrr May 10 18:03:18 lcuk: not , they cannot May 10 18:03:20 * BCMM is adding "+44" to the start of all his contact's numbers using sed May 10 18:03:29 (so they work with skype) May 10 18:03:37 E0x, do you have proof that ninjas are pirate proof?

May 10 18:16:09 afaik May 10 18:16:18 works flawlessly May 10 18:16:34 and does it generally peer with other SIP networks? May 10 18:16:47 (not that that is likely to make a great difference to me) May 10 18:16:52 a large number, yes May 10 18:20:14 hmm, http://www.sipgate.co.uk/user/tarife.php?show=6 shows just 2 - once there's been like 100 May 10 18:32:31 Wow, it is ridiculously hard to change your wifi password. May 10 18:33:13 ? May 10 18:33:31 Well, typing it into the dialog didn't seem to change what was actually stored in gconf, so it would ask me again. Every time. May 10 18:34:00 I wound up using gconftool-2 to overwrite the plaintext version stored in gconf. May 10 18:34:24 Which, without cut and paste for the 6-bajillion digit hex id it uses for the network, was a PITA. May 10 18:35:28 derf: file a bug May 10 18:36:09 This has been broken since at least Chinook. May 10 18:36:24 heh cool May 10 18:36:39 derf, anything special about your network May 10 18:36:39 (I know, because I just did it 5 minutes earlier on my N810, where at least I had gconfeditor to make it relatively painless). May 10 18:36:47 hey all May 10 18:36:58 and is there a bug number May 10 18:37:05 lcuk: Not my network. Work. Which is why they make me change my password.

May 10 19:27:17 milk May 10 19:28:03 so....... did i miss Pr1.3 while i was gone ;) ? hehe May 10 19:29:31 noobmonk3y: the problem with h/c not closing i had is because you attach to gobject.MainLoop() (http://gitorious.org/healthcheck/healthcheck/blobs/master/healthcheck.py#line746) but if i decline to let the app use gps it seems it doesnt send any of the signals you listen to, hence the loop will never quit May 10 19:29:47 someone's spamming devel with test debs... May 10 19:29:58 testdeb1 testdeb2 testdeb3 May 10 19:30:00 ahaaaaaaaaaa May 10 19:30:16 s/testdeb/debtest May 10 19:30:29 noobmonk3y: so it needs sanity check to see if you have access to the gps or not ;-) May 10 19:30:32 ~ping MohammadAG May 10 19:31:04 frals, doesn't it just mean i'm not closing the loop? May 10 19:31:09 or waiting for it anyway May 10 19:31:20 * MohammadAG pongs May 10 19:31:21 yes you dont close the loop May 10 19:31:27 so your program is running forever May 10 19:31:35 * noobmonk3y needs to figure out how to close it :P May 10 19:32:03 checking value of loop on exit - if true - run data.quit() May 10 19:32:06 maybe? May 10 19:32:34 yeah just do .quit() on the loop May 10 19:32:44 hmm I have a few shortcuts that just run a cli app... don't care for the output or so... but each time I launch it it strats up a fullscreen window for a few seconds and then closes it... nothing in it May 10 19:33:12 quick way to fix it would be to make the loop a variable in the object instead of local so you can just do loop.quit() when user is closing the app May 10 19:33:44 * noobmonk3y will brb 2 secs - shower, then will concentrate on hc May 10 19:33:56 * frals goes back to setting up his server May 10 19:36:23 hmmm i think controlpanel will talk to something over dbus May 10 19:36:37 so deleting any strace file woultn' work May 10 19:37:39 Fuskie: look at queen beecon May 10 19:37:40 ruskie: May 10 19:37:49 http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-testing_free_armel/queen-beecon/0.1.4/ May 10 19:38:21 ~bug 10089 May 10 19:38:22 Bug https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10089 Cannot create Flickr sharing account: "Internal error.

May 10 19:38:51 nothing looks like a solution :S May 10 19:39:51 SpeedEvil, hmm it is an option true... but I would prefer to just have normal shortcuts May 10 19:40:36 anyone here using qt ecma script binding?

May 10 19:43:01 yeah, noticed from the discussions May 10 19:43:44 our exchange server seems to have GlobalSign Root CA which is different from the one that is shipped with n900... May 10 19:43:46 i goes with enminig something May 10 19:43:50 for calendar May 10 19:43:55 google calendar May 10 19:44:03 ok May 10 19:45:29 I see from the logs that curl is exiting with status 51...

May 10 19:47:16 (bug 10089) May 10 19:47:18 Bug https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10089 Cannot create Flickr sharing account: "Internal error. Application 'Settings' closed." May 10 19:49:56 hrhr, copied the sysinfo.pl which i run on my servers to my n900 and it worked almost perfectly ;D May 10 19:50:09 Evening. May 10 19:52:22 I've been pondering this phantom file issue of mine... the fact that nothing shows up in the file manager should mean there are no rogue files, right? May 10 19:53:22 So the issue is with whatever list the media player keeps of various files it finds. Only even doing that hard reset doesnt seem to sorting itself out. May 10 19:53:29 rogue files? May 10 19:53:43 The media player keeps no list May 10 19:53:49 It's the tracker that does that May 10 19:53:50 The 5000-odd media files it belives are still there. May 10 19:54:09 delete ~/cache/tracker/* (IIRC) May 10 19:54:25 There is probably a 'right' way to do this May 10 19:54:55 Ok, then my next question... how does one delete something in the command line? May 10 19:55:21 Right now, the 'right' way is anything that'll work :O) May 10 19:56:01 iiec the proper way is 'tracker-processes -r' May 10 19:56:07 iirc* May 10 19:56:20 install rootsh May 10 19:56:33 actually - just terminal will do, as the files are owned by user May 10 19:56:35 I did it that way, it took hours to reindex and thumbnail all the video again :) May 10 19:56:36 MohammedAG mentiond the --hard-reset, which I've tried. May 10 19:56:57 Doesn't anyone want to use skype via proxy, or can confirm that this really does not work? https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10062 May 10 19:56:57 Bug 10062: Skype doesn't use network connection proxy settings May 10 19:57:02 Not tried just -r though. May 10 19:58:17 Hmm, same results as the hard reset. Although it does mention in both cases some missing files. May 10 19:59:21 Hi May 10 19:59:24 No good, its still listing the phantom files. May 10 19:59:35 brb May 10 20:00:14 * timeless_mbp sighs May 10 20:00:27 MfE doesn't quite get proxy exceptions right May 10 20:00:35 * timeless_mbp needs to file a bug May 10 20:02:37 * Cabletwitch bangs his head gently on the desk May 10 20:04:47 The user space is seperte from where the filesystem is kept, right?

May 10 20:06:06 frals: you working with fmms? May 10 20:06:26 yes May 10 20:06:30 should it work when I use wlan? May 10 20:06:30 Or I could xray the bloody thing and laugh manicly. May 10 20:06:51 haven't found the right settings yet... May 10 20:06:51 unless you use havoc mode, no May 10 20:07:45 Cabletwitch, n900 xrays pictures are on talk.maemo.org May 10 20:07:47 have to try it again May 10 20:08:34 lcuk: I'm on about xraying it until its melting. Might not make the problem go away though. May 10 20:09:35 anger_: connect manually to the MMS APN before sending and it should work, granted settings are correct May 10 20:09:46 SpeedEvil: hello Mr Ian Stirling ;-) May 10 20:10:04 Eh, too tired to think more about this right now.

May 10 20:24:34 alright :) May 10 20:25:29 SpeedEvil: there seems just one thing you need to know: keep out of reach of their teeth :-P May 10 20:26:00 Jaffa / GeneralAntilles: we've mentioned instances of mirophones and micorophones, right?

May 10 21:15:24 that's redundant heh May 10 21:15:25 So it was community consensus that got it killed. May 10 21:15:36 MohammadAG: does it work now? May 10 21:15:56 someone needs to give infobot a good kick May 10 21:16:19 infobot, hostmode is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=652330 May 10 21:16:19 okay, MohammadAG May 10 21:16:29 infobot, forget hostmode May 10 21:16:29 i forgot hostmode, MohammadAG May 10 21:16:36 GAN900: for pre N900 release definitions of "community" then? May 10 21:16:38 haha May 10 21:17:16 infobot, hostmode is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=652330 May 10 21:17:16 okay, MohammadAG May 10 21:17:19 Shapeshifter: cURL isn't done?! May 10 21:18:15 Hello, #maemo May 10 21:18:17 breaking mp-fremantle-generic-pr is like breaking virg.... May 10 21:18:23 version numbers, yeah, that May 10 21:18:28 tybollt, no. May 10 21:18:39 hi jaem May 10 21:18:49 tybollt, for about the end of 2009 definition of discussion on maemo-developers. :) May 10 21:19:00 <~ Simon BTW, MohammadAG: May 10 21:19:08 LOL i know ;) May 10 21:19:19 SimorLR May 10 21:20:04 Shaddap mister know it all. May 10 21:20:35 GAN900: booo May 10 21:20:38 ok May 10 21:20:38 * MohammadAG cries in the corner May 10 21:21:01 tybollt, boo at what? May 10 21:21:18 * hawai`i paints MohammadAG into a corner May 10 21:21:35 * MohammadAG flashes a corrupt NOLO and hits hawai`i with a brick May 10 21:21:51 * MohammadAG ships the brick to DocScrutinizer May 10 21:21:54 tybollt, having an open community discussion to remove a feature of dubious usefulness that mostly serves to harm users? May 10 21:21:59 Uhm are nokia indeed releasing an adaptor cable for OTG on the N8? May 10 21:22:08 Clearly, you can't please anybody. May 10 21:22:08 yes, in box May 10 21:22:10 tybollt: ships with one in the box. May 10 21:22:19 ha! beat you to it May 10 21:22:30 In the Fremantle SBox shell, the SBOX_UNAME_MACHINE env variable changes depending on the target, from what I can see. What I'm wanting to do (for convenience, not general use) is to have my QMake project files use the correct architecture of libraries, which are stored in appropriately-named subdirectories. May 10 21:22:35 I'll beat you May 10 21:22:36 Was the argument NOT that shipping such adaptor voids USB certification? May 10 21:22:42 WHAT IN THE FUCKING FUCK NOKIA? May 10 21:22:44 Is there a better way to do that, either in SBox or QMake itself? May 10 21:22:54 * MohammadAG hits hawai`i with a ton of bricks May 10 21:23:12 * MohammadAG sees hawai`i immobilized, so he gets out his Javelin May 10 21:23:33 tybollt, er? May 10 21:23:51 tybollt, the argument was that Red Pill should be removed from h-a-m May 10 21:24:11 GAN900: I clearly do not agree with you. But I will agree to disagree :) May 10 21:24:24 GAN900: red pill was (IMHO) certainly very much usefull May 10 21:24:39 blue pill otoh... May 10 21:24:46 tybollt, the issue with USB certification had to do with port selection and hardware issues. May 10 21:24:53 tybollt, then you're doing it wrong. May 10 21:25:16 Red Pill was never more useful than apt-get. May 10 21:25:30 Out of curiousity, has anyone been working on a third-party apt (GUI) frontend? HAM is fine, and certainly more consumer-friendly than some, but the lack of things like queueing annoys me a bit. May 10 21:25:42 I can use apt-get, but sometimes pointy-clicky is nicer. May 10 21:25:48 and quite a bit less when you're someone who has to play "Help the user fix their Red Pill-begotten problems". :) May 10 21:25:49 GAN900: is HW different on N8 then? May 10 21:25:56 tybollt, clearly. May 10 21:26:11 I'd like a package management gui with screenshots and such May 10 21:26:16 meh May 10 21:26:18 :) May 10 21:26:22 dmj726, there were discussions about things like that. May 10 21:26:37 then why are people bringing that up? May 10 21:26:40 jaem / dmb, danielwilms is working on app downloader. May 10 21:26:43 And there is an app in -devel that has some fanciness like that, but IIRC it doesn't have installation ability May 10 21:26:45 I'd probably have more apps if I could find out more about them first May 10 21:27:02 dmj726, http://downloads.maemo.org May 10 21:27:02 GAN900, oh right, I've heard of that. Any idea how it's coming along? May 10 21:27:28 ...off the top of your head, I mean - I can go look it up later. May 10 21:27:30 sup all, in order to make my n900 ssh server to work i indeed need to create key files on my own right? May 10 21:27:35 I've been there...I just often am browsing through the list on my phone. May 10 21:28:07 GAN900: Again, it may be a matter of taste, dpkg and apt are there so I guess it's not critical and it doesn't lock users in, but still :) May 10 21:28:10 Would N900 be able to boot in a live SD session? May 10 21:28:19 w/a bootloader ofc May 10 21:28:35 FIQ, do you mean just normal booting from a card, as with the N8x0? May 10 21:28:42 jaem, slowly May 10 21:28:59 like that i guess May 10 21:29:03 tybollt, well, if you don't like it, put the patch back in, package your own or create a replacement. May 10 21:29:06 GO KICK SOME BRITISH ASS WILLIAM WALLICE! May 10 21:29:10 oops May 10 21:29:14 That's why it's open source. May 10 21:29:18 uhm May 10 21:29:39 GAN900: and that's why you will call me a lousy whiner, cause that is what I am :) May 10 21:29:50 Macer, heh... that reminded me of my high school days, when I thought that playing that scene's audio on my TI-83 with headphones was pretty cool. *strokes his N900 and smiles* May 10 21:30:06 Sorry, 83+. 1-bit audio FTW! May 10 21:30:16 jaem: ? May 10 21:30:23 i'm watching braveheart :) May 10 21:31:05 Macer, yes, and someone hacked the 83+ (digital) link port to play audio. One of the demos was the epic speech from Braveheart. May 10 21:31:28 You just had to plug in a 2.5mm->3.5mm phone plug adapter to the link port, and then plug in headphones May 10 21:32:48 DocScrutinizer, attack attack attack! May 10 21:33:27 err huh? May 10 21:33:43 SpeedEvil1 joined... :p May 10 21:34:10 exit May 10 21:34:16 whoops May 10 21:34:16 / May 10 21:34:30 shoulda typed May 10 21:34:31 andyfrommk, there is no escape from #maemo May 10 21:34:39 even backslashes don't work ;) May 10 21:34:44 there's a channel for that... May 10 21:34:51 jaem: haha May 10 21:34:57 I *think* it's #itsatrap May 10 21:34:59 I think.. May 10 21:35:04 not sure if it's freenode May 10 21:35:09 +on May 10 21:35:26 jaem: 1bit PWM? May 10 21:35:36 or ADPCM May 10 21:35:55 DocScrutinizer, I wasn't knowledgeable enough back then to actually read the code (I think it was ASM), so I don't know. May 10 21:36:20 If you give me a few, I'll see if I can get you the link, but it's probably on ticalc.org's download pages somewhere. May 10 21:36:38 prolly PCM May 10 21:36:53 http://rizon.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=824 May 10 21:37:15 #DontJoinItsATrap it keep forcing you to join after partitng, not here it seems May 10 21:37:28 It was pretty terrible quality, but that I could recognize the voices after seeing the movie once, months before, and that's running on a 6MHz (?) Z80 caclulator. Heh. May 10 21:39:29 what does one use to record audio in an n900? May 10 21:39:40 BCMM, the microphone? May 10 21:40:00 Seriously, though, do you mean as a voice recorder, or for calls/streaming/whatever? May 10 21:40:28 jaem: i mean software, to record audio to disk May 10 21:40:30 jaem: done this on my first selfbuilt z80 'computer' May 10 21:40:52 BCMM: There is 'recorder' or something like that in the repos May 10 21:41:00 SpeedEvil, thanks, I forgot the name. May 10 21:41:03 jaem: for use as a ringtone or as a note to yourself or because you heard a weird noise and wanted to analyse its spectrum when you get home or whatever May 10 21:41:08 SpeedEvil: thanks May 10 21:41:13 BCMM: recorder May 10 21:41:32 ahh SpeedEvil beat me May 10 21:42:54 how do you record and overdub a few tracks through May 10 21:47:32 whom do I ask for a braindead fanboi filter on tmo? May 10 21:48:16 tybollt, GAN900, who then gets annoyed at tyou. :) May 10 21:48:29 i was going to say, can't you delete your own account? May 10 21:48:34 (joke! joke!) May 10 21:48:58 DocScrutinizer: theres a reason Speed is in his name ;) May 10 21:49:04 it would be nice to be able to ignore certain users. -- it is so hard to not be mean and angry May 10 21:49:13 DocScrutinizer: makes you wonder about the second half of SpeedEvil's name too ;) May 10 21:49:56 It initially came from a competition on a MUD - where several times, I answered a question before it had been asked. May 10 21:50:17 Whcih was more to do with the fact that the quizmaster was rather predictable. May 10 21:50:30 SpeedEvil: in this mud, were you Lawful Evil, or Chaotic Evil, or Neutral Evil? May 10 21:50:33 mud? oh dear... May 10 21:50:34 ahh no finland beat germany in hockey tonight May 10 21:50:44 so? May 10 21:51:05 finland got entirely butfucked by Denmark in hockey the other night May 10 21:51:25 tybollt: that must have been alot of "buts" May 10 21:51:51 buttfucked too, yes :) May 10 21:52:00 but are you sure? ;) May 10 21:52:25 anyway it was the most misserable performance in hockey history - by Finland :) May 10 21:52:42 Xisdibik: IIRC it diddn't really do alignment. May 10 21:52:43 AKA, nothing topping America probably :P May 10 21:52:47 It's been a while though. May 10 21:52:52 SpeedEvil: then where is the evil part of your name from ;) May 10 21:53:52 * SpeedEvil is really an ex-assasin. May 10 21:54:05 assassins arnt neccessarily evil :p May 10 21:54:20 many were doing "good" by eliminating "evil" :P May 10 21:55:02 Welcome to #moral-philosophy May 10 21:55:26 I know. Then there was the incident with the puppies, and the candy factory, and it kind of stuck. May 10 21:56:29 haha ok May 10 22:01:36 i'm using find . | grep jpg | xargs rm to try to recursively delete all jpgs from a certain folder but since the file names/directories have spaces it won't work. xargs -0 doesn't work either. what should i do? :) May 10 22:02:22 find . -iname \*.jpg -print0 | xargs -0 rm May 10 22:02:38 the xargs -0 switch doesn't work on the n900 May 10 22:02:50 just gives you a usage error May 10 22:02:52 install gnu find May 10 22:02:55 and the utils May 10 22:03:12 or rm */*jpg */*/*jpg ... May 10 22:03:14 lo Robot101 May 10 22:03:34 omar: are you essentially trying to keep things out of the Gallery? May 10 22:04:19 hawai`i, no my album art is screwed up, for just about every single album i have the same stupid jpg shown May 10 22:04:30 SpeedEvil, i have the findutils installed already May 10 22:04:44 omar: ah. Yes. May 10 22:05:15 i tried deleting that jpg manually but it was sitll showing for some reason so i'm just going to wipe them all out ;) May 10 22:05:47 Nokia-N900-02-8:/home/user/MyDocs/.sounds# find . -print | grep jpg | xargs -0 ls May 10 22:05:47 xargs: invalid option -- 0 May 10 22:05:47 BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso26+0m5) multi-call binary May 10 22:05:47 Usage: xargs [OPTIONS] [COMMAND] [ARGS...] May 10 22:05:49 hawai`i, hmm... yeah, I had forgotten about the album art issue. Did Nokia do anything about that specifically? (I know you can fiddle with Tracker for the same effect, but I keep forgetting to do it) May 10 22:06:06 That's actually kind of a silly oversight. May 10 22:06:42 jaem: I don't believe so. It's a stupid problem - I store them in the tags, but I had to re-tag my entire collection - PITA. May 10 22:07:17 i think i prepend/append quotes if i pipe the grep to awk but i don't know the expression to do so May 10 22:09:01 `find` doesn't have -f argument either. May 10 22:09:14 ~nuke busybox May 10 22:09:23 ~useless May 10 22:09:23 * infobot starts crying and hides from docscrutinizer in the darkest corner of the room. :( May 10 22:09:26 ~die May 10 22:09:26 * infobot takes two shots to the head and crumples to the ground, lifeless. May 10 22:09:35 IIRC busybox awk will also not handle zeros May 10 22:09:37 ~breathe damnit! May 10 22:09:47 with gawk you can do gawk -v RS=" May 10 22:09:52 \000" May 10 22:10:31 apt-get install coreutils May 10 22:10:42 apt-get install find-utils May 10 22:10:57 apt-get install less May 10 22:11:36 how about... May 10 22:11:52 append -exec rm {} \; May 10 22:12:20 if rumors about free root fs space are true we will be able to install non-optified gcc, make and stuff there without any fatal consequences May 10 22:12:35 (in pr1.2) May 10 22:12:44 find doesn't know that either, err CRAPPYBOX May 10 22:12:59 symlink's are perfectly fine, Arkenoi. Why bother? May 10 22:13:14 lol May 10 22:13:37 Arkenoi: rumours? what rumours? May 10 22:13:54 Arkenoi: that's rather irrelevant May 10 22:14:07 Arkenoi: cp / /home/user May 10 22:14:13 cd /home/user/ May 10 22:14:17 chroot . sh May 10 22:14:21 aah yes - lol May 10 22:14:24 and that's fine for building stuff May 10 22:14:33 ~optification May 10 22:14:34 i heard optification is a inventive duct tape workaround to reclaim space in fs root, done due to the fact the partitioning is FUBAR, or http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Packaging,_Deploying_and_Distributing/Installing_under_opt_and_MyDocs May 10 22:16:14 If we had a decent /usr partition (and maybe a /var) we'd not need that crap May 10 22:17:21 * DocScrutinizer thinks there's not a single devel at Nokia who knows how nix worked ~20 years ago May 10 22:17:42 Haha May 10 22:17:45 they *knew* how to handle storage contrains back in the old days May 10 22:18:23 DocScrutinizer: Indeed. All you need is a small deck of cards, of r booting using the rear cam. May 10 22:18:52 nite all, sweet dreams May 10 22:19:02 * DocScrutinizer waves as well May 10 22:19:07 ttyl May 10 22:20:58 DocScrutinizer, "back in MY day, I had to walk uphill to school BOTH ways"... :P May 10 22:21:05 I take your point, though... May 10 22:23:16 oh wtf May 10 22:23:35 i have a goddamn scratch on my screen! May 10 22:23:38 and i don't know how! May 10 22:23:43 i am always so careful with my phone May 10 22:23:45 Macer, :O May 10 22:23:52 it's not a bad one but still May 10 22:23:59 hm. i need to find a replacement part May 10 22:24:06 It must have been $mythical_mischevious_creature May 10 22:24:11 yeah May 10 22:24:16 I hate those May 10 22:24:24 there is a way to like... replace the top plastic part of the screen isn't there? May 10 22:24:29 Macer: ket me know when you do.. I have a scratch too May 10 22:24:34 especially because it takes longer to write that than whatever string that expands to :P May 10 22:24:35 same thing here May 10 22:24:46 I had a P1i for several years - no scartcj May 10 22:24:49 Macer, I think so, but I've only heard hear-say May 10 22:24:53 and not much of it May 10 22:24:54 this thing scartches w/in a coupla months May 10 22:24:55 heh May 10 22:24:57 well... let me see May 10 22:25:00 Macer: Adding a screen protector will often reduce the visibility of existing scratches May 10 22:25:01 it looks like something easy to replace May 10 22:25:12 SpeedEvil: i should have added one BEFORE the scratch May 10 22:25:14 Macer: The top part is not especially easy to replace. May 10 22:25:16 but i figured i'd be real safe with it May 10 22:25:22 SpeedEvil: seriously? that sucks May 10 22:25:32 it seem slke something that is easy to replace May 10 22:25:38 Macer: It's $50 or so IIRC - and requires doing something during which DocScrutinizer bricked his phone May 10 22:25:39 do you mean just finding the piece is hard? May 10 22:25:43 yes May 10 22:25:51 oh May 10 22:25:56 installing it is basically a complete dissasemble May 10 22:25:59 Macer, "easy" is not well-defined, anyway May 10 22:26:03 heh May 10 22:26:16 wow that totally sucks May 10 22:26:29 Is there anything you can get that can just smooth it over? May 10 22:26:33 just to replace a piece of front plastic is that serious? May 10 22:26:39 yeah it's not a bad scratch.. but i know it's there :) May 10 22:26:43 Macer: It's not the front piece of plastic. May 10 22:26:54 Macer: It's the front half of a touchscreen panel. May 10 22:27:03 oh May 10 22:27:04 :/ May 10 22:27:16 had to use this command find . -print | grep jpg | awk '{ print "\"" $0 "\""}' | xargs rm -f May 10 22:27:17 Macer: this has a front and a back half, some assorted electronic connections, and stuff. May 10 22:27:22 hopefully that fixes my album art issue :) May 10 22:27:52 wow :( May 10 22:27:53 omar: or rm */*jpg */*/*jpg */*/*/jpg May 10 22:27:53 that suks May 10 22:27:59 let me see about getting a protector May 10 22:28:17 didn't know i could do that SpeedEvil May 10 22:28:42 but my album art still screwed up, where does it fetch these images?

May 10 23:21:36 hm May 10 23:21:44 That'd make sense and all, I don't know why I didn't consider it before. May 10 23:22:10 ManoftheSea, lol who made you think that May 10 23:22:10 avatar is great (the cartoon) May 10 23:22:58 MohammadAG_: just a general feel. May 10 23:23:07 some1 know any app for 3g data control? May 10 23:23:09 I mean, who'd do this out of love for a pen-testing phone? May 10 23:23:10 youre wrong May 10 23:23:21 nokians dont wander amongst the mortals May 10 23:23:49 haha May 10 23:23:58 Mace_N900: i use to watch avatar all the time :) May 10 23:24:00 dAnIeLLL: Control - how? May 10 23:24:10 dAnIeLLL: there is 2g/3g switcher in extras May 10 23:24:24 b-man, im watching it with my son May 10 23:24:25 If you have 3g, why would you want 2g? May 10 23:24:29 Just for the power difference? May 10 23:24:33 no no May 10 23:24:35 it cracks me up May 10 23:24:42 control data May 10 23:24:57 transfers May 10 23:25:16 2g also has better latency May 10 23:25:27 oh. Hmm. May 10 23:25:51 Do we know how accurate the GPS is? May 10 23:26:05 I don't know how such things are measured, but I was asked that. May 10 23:26:35 ManoftheSea: It is within the typical accuracy of GPSs May 10 23:26:40 +-4m seems about right May 10 23:26:43 ManoftheSea: up to 1 meter, depends on weather and amount of satellites visible May 10 23:26:46 I haven't done any detailed tests May 10 23:26:51 ok. May 10 23:26:52 I really, really doubt 1m. May 10 23:27:06 Yeah, I don't really know what kind of accuracy they were expecting, either. May 10 23:27:16 The camera puts an exact number in the exif, yeah? May 10 23:27:19 I've seen it in my freerunner, with crystal-clear sky May 10 23:27:41 ManoftheSea: Yes. Too exact. :/ May 10 23:27:57 https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6584 May 10 23:27:57 Bug 6584: GPS geotagged pictures truncate precision of GPS reading (0 decimal places) May 10 23:28:01 A nice round number. May 10 23:28:49 ok. May 10 23:29:18 Hey, I accept if you don't answer these questions... but do we know anything about kismet, airsnort, or using the wireless as an AP? May 10 23:29:27 I was reading something about only channel 6? May 10 23:29:46 But is there any functionality to replicate a "MiFi" like device? May 10 23:29:57 Not just single computer tethering. May 10 23:30:01 ManoftheSea: I don't know about N900, but with Freerunner it was possible only with external wifi card May 10 23:30:04 there is a mobilehotspot app May 10 23:30:08 but idk if it works May 10 23:30:15 that sounds right... extras-devel? May 10 23:30:28 yeah May 10 23:30:36 it hasn't worked for me May 10 23:32:08 What about kismet? Have others gotten it to work? May 10 23:32:38 airodump kinda works May 10 23:32:42 on dchan6 May 10 23:32:44 yes, mobile-hotspot works for others May 10 23:32:54 I use JoikuSpot, but it kills custom kernels May 10 23:33:04 yeah, I was reading that chan 6 only. I don't understand the details, but that seemed weird. May 10 23:33:13 Any reasoning on that? May 10 23:33:32 does the kernel-flasher in extra's devel install a custom kernel? May 10 23:33:32 killing custom kernels? May 10 23:33:33 abi issue? May 10 23:33:37 well you can use them, but... May 10 23:33:38 ManoftheSea: you might be interested in http://www.neopwn.com/ May 10 23:33:43 Joikuspot wouldn't work May 10 23:33:53 it imports a .ko module May 10 23:33:59 oh, that is cool liori May 10 23:34:04 which doesn't get imported on t-tan's kernel May 10 23:35:03 now THAT is evil May 10 23:35:47 yes, that is cool. May 10 23:37:30 can't t-tan use compatible kernel abi version and symbols?? May 10 23:40:33 ~lart the GUI fool that though changing from light blue to WHITE was a great idea for taskswitcher notification icon May 10 23:40:33 * infobot squeezes the GUI fool that though changing from light blue to WHITE was a great idea till the GUI fool that though changing from light blue to WHITE was a great idea turns blue like papa smurf for taskswitcher notification icon May 10 23:41:49 that's been brilliant May 10 23:41:56 ~botsnack May 10 23:41:57 DocScrutinizer51: :) May 10 23:44:36 ~lart sum gai May 10 23:44:36 * infobot nabs the moon and broadsides sum gai with the sea of tranquility May 10 23:44:48 hunh. May 10 23:44:57 Anyway... May 10 23:45:20 Does Nokia have an engineering mode for the n900? I don't expect that regular joe can get it May 10 23:45:34 But if there is one, that seems like an all in one wireless solution, no? May 10 23:46:27 there is an R&D mode, of variable utility May 10 23:46:37 Yeah, with the flashing keyboard? May 10 23:46:51 (Disclaimer, I don't know what 'engineering mode' actually means) May 10 23:47:07 (I think it has to do with figuring out how the cell coverage is doing) May 10 23:48:11 90% of all interesting things can be done without special modes beyond root access May 10 23:49:26 alright. I won't push the issue, since I know it's of dubious merit. May 10 23:49:28 ManoftheSea: no alas no cellmo EM May 10 23:49:45 I don't know what cellmo EM is. I'd just be guessing May 10 23:50:30 modem engineering mode May 10 23:51:10 R&D just for main linux szstem May 10 23:51:33 I guessed wrong. May 10 23:51:37 modem pretty closed May 10 23:51:43 Thanks. I'm looking at openBTS now. May 10 23:51:55 DocScrutinizer51: doesn't surprise me, as it's where people would get into the most trouble. May 10 23:52:14 check out pnatd (cmdline) May 10 23:52:14 I mean... look at how easy backtrax is. May 10 23:52:31 It has a legit use and all... but I can't deny it's used by skiddies either. May 10 23:53:05 whats backtrax? May 10 23:54:32 backtracks? May 10 23:54:38 The pen-testing linux distro? May 10 23:54:48 or... security-related? May 10 23:54:53 I guess it does forensics too. May 10 23:54:58 heh you're looking at openBTS? cool May 10 23:55:35 greet all of them :-)) May 10 23:55:37 "looking at" is not understanding. May 10 23:55:58 anyway... gotta go for now. Talk to you guys later. May 10 23:56:25 yeah Harald and Dieter are far above what I know May 10 23:58:04 anyway if you talk to harald aka lafPrge then toss a EHLO for me May 10 23:58:24 laf0rge even May 10 23:58:46 openbts is insanely cool May 10 23:59:23 I would love to go to germany for it - but... May 11 00:02:16 yeah May 11 00:03:56 reminds me... kontorri promised to see what can be done for EM May 11 00:04:41 reminds me... kontorri promised to see what can be done for EM May 11 00:06:48 ~seen onenbmap May 11 00:06:54 DocScrutinizer51: i haven't seen 'onenbmap' May 11 00:11:09 any howto on debugging kernel?

Created in #mipslinux, it is a rule that states that whenever somebody enters an IRC channel it is always morning, and it is always late when the person leaves. The local time of any other people in the channel, including the greeter, is irrelevant. http://www.total-knowledge.com/~ilya/mips/ugt.html May 11 01:02:00 i wonder if gmail mfe mail will work in pr1.2 May 11 01:03:20 ask MohammadAG - he testedthe whole 1.2 on scratchbox aiui May 11 01:03:50 i have the SDK, how can i launch the 1.2 firmware?

May 11 01:48:15 wat do you want exactly May 11 01:48:38 Hey fellas, having a small problem when i use medial player to display video to tv it doesn't show.... just black screen May 11 01:48:43 I think I want this, but I'm not sure if it is real or a hoax --- http://www.crunchgear.com/2010/04/12/the-wepad-gets-a-price-and-launch-date/ May 11 01:49:00 imagine if that is real and putting maemo on that baby ♥ May 11 01:49:16 Maemo will never go on other devices. May 11 01:49:17 irssi and anything else works just fine.. is this a known issue with the app? May 11 01:49:26 maemo has nokia closed components. May 11 01:49:31 That form a large part of the UI May 11 01:49:41 The open parts of course can be used May 11 01:50:13 who knows what MeeGo will bring. It is aimed at tablets too, but that's a different discussion May 11 01:50:16 move on. May 11 01:50:30 crazyhorss: no, usually you should get video from your 3.5mm with the cable that came with N900 May 11 01:51:18 Which is rather bullshit. I'm not entirely sure you can call it an open source distro, if MOST of it is not OSS - 60% non-free is the statistic I've seen, but Stskeeps has made an actual list somewhere May 11 01:52:17 hey doc. i know but its an avi i ripped and its showing on n900 just fine but wont play on tv for some odd reason May 11 01:52:34 doc, any ideas what might be causing this? May 11 01:52:36 * DocScrutinizer suspects Myrtti and emma are left and right half of one brain May 11 01:53:19 DocScrutinizer: hardly May 11 01:53:37 sib works but frame rate is horrble... constant freezing May 11 01:53:56 crazyhorss: please elaborate on the symptoms May 11 01:54:21 No Myrtti is much more intelligent than me :) May 11 01:54:43 crazyhorss: usually AV and LCD should be more or less in sync May 11 01:54:45 And I think she hates me. May 11 01:55:18 sounds like classic schizophrenia, emma May 11 01:55:28 hehe May 11 01:55:29 For anyone that wants to know the exact statistic for PR1.1 - 57% is non-OSS and 43% is OSS May 11 01:55:49 Termana: is that package numbers? kloc? :) May 11 01:56:03 DocScrutinizer: i get the loading dots then tv dots dissapear while n900 still has then 2sec later video starts on n900 May 11 01:56:14 asjWrk, http://stskeeps.subnetmask.net/maemo.org/openness/pr1.1/ May 11 01:56:40 crazyhorss: AV isn't granted for anything but mediaplayer May 11 01:56:51 Termana: Stskeeps keeps the non-OSS/OSS statistics ;P May 11 01:57:08 Termana: it's on a wiki somewhere May 11 01:57:12 b-man: exactly May 11 01:57:27 b-man, have you got something in your eye?

May 11 02:00:06 It's an exercise program i wanted to use.. maybe there is some kind of copyrigh that n900 video driver detects?t May 11 02:00:11 hate - no. distaste, yes. May 11 02:00:13 you can click on almost everything May 11 02:00:44 crazyhorss: strange May 11 02:01:19 crazyhorss: you should file a bug ticket, if you can share the video source file May 11 02:01:19 u wanna know what's super strange? my skype account doesn't work for skype out on the n900 May 11 02:01:45 hooooooo scary May 11 02:02:02 skype == BS May 11 02:02:17 Thats right DocScrutinizer uses a tin can and a piece of string May 11 02:02:26 olol May 11 02:02:38 /mode +q Termana May 11 02:02:41 that kind of communication won't work from UAE to USA May 11 02:02:43 :P May 11 02:02:50 DocScrutinizer: alright i guess i will... thanks May 11 02:03:02 I vote for cheesecake May 11 02:03:08 crazyhorss: thanks for that, mate May 11 02:03:29 uh, wupz.
