**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Jun 23 02:59:58 2012 Jun 23 03:55:33 wayland inc. bought apple Jun 23 03:55:46 in 2020 when apple was on the brink of bankruptcy Jun 23 04:33:53 ...it seems that the CA results thread on TMO got pretty ugly Jun 23 05:37:29 Hurrian:become? It's been that way for the past few days. Jun 23 08:43:12 morning, the situation on tmo is bad Jun 23 08:49:21 what do you mean by bad? Jun 23 08:50:47 the CA Jun 23 08:51:51 it's awful, really. Jun 23 09:00:28 side note, I have noticed that abill_uk is back, and stirring up noise (not the good kind) on TMO once again Jun 23 09:37:56 Finally found a repair place that can fix my N900 :) Jun 23 09:44:45 :) Jun 23 09:48:51 Going to take a couple weeks for the parts to arrive though Jun 23 09:49:02 I will keep using my phone in the mean time Jun 23 09:49:13 and just be careful of the broken front bezel Jun 23 11:19:07 gotta love http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1226087&postcount=283 Jun 23 11:22:18 Lol. Jun 23 11:24:02 let's see how this mess develops. Jun 23 11:26:14 It is not pretty. Things are getting personal now. Jun 23 11:26:33 and I still don't see why people are so worked up Jun 23 11:26:48 merlin1991: because they did not win. Jun 23 11:27:09 Ie the council members shouldn't get *free* stuff was discussed on the mailing list long before the submission period started Jun 23 11:27:34 merlin1991: what was the conclusion to the discussion? Jun 23 11:27:44 it's fine Jun 23 11:28:03 int other words not what the people in the thread claim Jun 23 11:30:42 hurr Jun 23 11:30:55 see http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-community/2012-May/005259.html and the follow ups Jun 23 11:31:14 When I'm doing make it will search headers and why not from /opt/maemo/usr/include when it should be getting them fron /usr/include Jun 23 11:31:17 What to do? Jun 23 11:32:16 Viltzu: did you move the hearders there by hand? Jun 23 11:32:23 or did they get installed there? Jun 23 11:32:44 They were installed there Jun 23 11:32:49 I'm using tanners gcc-4.4 Jun 23 11:32:51 of course the people who got one won't complain. I didn't even apply (so it should be kinda neutral), but my main point of criticism are the intransparent decisions. For some, it's obvious why they deserve one, but for others, it's not. One sentence in the wiki about the why's is apparently to much to ask for, and no, I am not going to read tons of messed up threads on TMO where a dicsussion took place. I also doubt the CA will help in saving Jun 23 11:32:52 maemo, at least fremantle. Jun 23 11:32:54 also "make" does not search for headers Jun 23 11:33:00 could you make aegis look at a copy of the file system somewhere else all the while editing the real /etc/? Jun 23 11:34:07 NIN101: what do you think will be the result of listing why a persons achievments are not good enough? Jun 23 11:34:09 merlin1991: well yeah. But what I should now do? Should I just cp to the right place. I tried to create symlink for the dir to the right place but then it says Too many symbolic links :P Jun 23 11:34:35 which header exactly are you missing? Jun 23 11:34:55 http://viltzu.kapsi.fi/output.out Jun 23 11:35:23 And those can be found from /usr/include/c++/4.4/ and so on. Jun 23 11:36:27 Viltzu: build the make file with the verbosity flag from cmake, so that you see the actual call to gcc Jun 23 11:36:50 vi_: some kind of transparency. Jun 23 11:40:42 merlin1991, set(CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE on) in CMakeLists.txt? Jun 23 11:43:15 http://viltzu.kapsi.fi/output Jun 23 11:44:31 örh. Jun 23 11:44:34 I'd check what /home/maemo/cbE/src/precomp.h really includes on line 7 Jun 23 11:44:44 because the gcc call contains no hint to opt Jun 23 11:45:02 unless the gcc itself has fubar opt searchpaths it has to be in the sources Jun 23 11:45:50 #include on line 7. Jun 23 11:47:52 Viltzu: hm, CFLAGS / CPPFLAGS ? Jun 23 11:48:21 wa? Jun 23 11:48:49 the environment variables CFLAGS / CPPFLAGS are read by gcc aswell Jun 23 11:49:45 Uhm. That doesn't say really anything to me :) Jun 23 11:50:00 do echo $CFLAGS Jun 23 11:50:06 and echo $CPPFLAGS Jun 23 11:50:12 and see if they contain anything odd Jun 23 11:50:36 is that odd that they are empty? Jun 23 11:50:46 no that is normal :) Jun 23 11:50:49 ok. Jun 23 11:50:53 hm then it has to be your gcc :/ Jun 23 11:51:16 I'm using tanners gcc 4.4. Added the repo and installed via apt-get. Jun 23 11:51:40 I've never used it, so I don't have any hands on experience Jun 23 11:51:42 also lunch Jun 23 11:51:49 k. Jun 23 11:51:58 NIN101: so if it was published "nitroid has had 0 positive effect on maemo community therefore coder does not win". Do you think there would be no arguments? Jun 23 11:54:19 there would be. But at least we would know the WHYs. WHY someone got one, and why another didn't. Jun 23 12:06:59 who cares? Jun 23 12:07:49 look - *if* I had applied I would know for sure about the true reasons why I wouldn't have received one Jun 23 12:10:17 so for the "why not" it's usually very obvious. For the "why anybody at all received this 'Award' ?" I already elaborated yesterday with woody that I fail to see the point of this whole action/mess, and in my opinion council better had kept the whole pool for handing out spare devices on a by-demand basis Jun 23 12:11:13 my main point is: without reasons I can think this is a farce. Why should I believe the opposite? Jun 23 12:11:41 it is, you don't need to think opposite Jun 23 12:11:55 NIN101: Without discussing individual cases we are 'beating around the bush' Jun 23 12:12:01 if it were up to me, there would be no CA and no problems Jun 23 12:12:13 exactly Jun 23 12:12:18 maemo is pretty much a dead platform Jun 23 12:12:19 who cares Jun 23 12:12:40 meego is Jun 23 12:12:52 So is amiga OS, what is your point? Jun 23 12:14:20 NIN101: on no DDP ever the reasons been discussed in public - we all agreed this would be useless public bashing for all those who failed Jun 23 12:15:07 well. Jun 23 12:16:51 I've had 2 cases now where I did not get a chance to recharge the N900 before it shut down due to low battery, and now the battery appears useless (tried recharging it via another N900 and from external Nokia charger, with no response). Is this a known phenomenon or should I expect to be able to have usable batteries after N900 shuts down from battery low? Jun 23 12:17:15 kwtm: plug it in into usb charger Jun 23 12:17:19 kwtm: and wait few hours Jun 23 12:17:42 and honestly, you'll *always* find "better" rationale and winners in a public aftermath than those who did the hard job of selecting came up with. and it helps exactly nothing but adds tention and noise to community Jun 23 12:18:18 jacekowski: Hmm... I had plugged it into charge for a while, and the charger light even changed to blue from pink, so I thought it was fully charged. Wonder if it's the N900 itself. Maybe I can try a "universal" charger instead of Nokia's. Jun 23 12:18:46 err WUT Jun 23 12:19:12 blue->pink??? Jun 23 12:19:18 yeah ????? Jun 23 12:19:21 no pink -> blue Jun 23 12:19:31 wtf even more. Jun 23 12:19:44 there's neither blue nor pink involved in charging indication Jun 23 12:20:08 Ah. When you say USB charger you mean the N900 itself? I was talking about an external charger. Jun 23 12:20:26 the supposed colors are amber (red + green) and green (just green) Jun 23 12:21:32 I'm going to see if I can dig up an alternate battery for my N900, just to prove to myself it's the battery, and then I'll fiddle with the battery. Jun 23 12:22:45 if you get blue and pink, it seems you got a pre-summit device with messed up indicator LED hardwiring Jun 23 12:22:57 that got flashed with standard software Jun 23 12:24:03 DocScrutinizer05: that doesnt exist. Jun 23 12:24:15 you can look up the actual swap of colors in lp5523.c for yourself Jun 23 12:24:40 Possibly a second hand device with a modified MCE.ini Jun 23 12:24:53 dafaq Jun 23 12:25:14 you can't modify mce.ini in a way that even NOLO would change to pink Jun 23 12:25:37 not to mention hardwired amber of emergency charging Jun 23 12:26:23 anyway, resetting mce.ini to defaults is a sane suggestion :-) Jun 23 12:27:06 we've seen devices with smoked-up green in 3-color LED Jun 23 12:27:17 which gave some strange notification colors Jun 23 12:27:23 of course Jun 23 12:28:15 anyway Jun 23 12:28:32 kwtm: you shouldn't deplete battery til emergency shutdown Jun 23 12:28:48 you shouldn't try to reboot device with depleted battery. Jun 23 12:29:11 and yes, eventually battery will just cease to work in very much the way you descriobed Jun 23 12:30:02 no, any "universal charger" usually will way more likely kill your battery than treat it nice Jun 23 12:32:56 kwtm: I dunno what acme-bat-apps and supadupa-kernels incl borked modules you got installed on your N900. I suggest: a) get fresh and charged BL-5J, *FLASH* your N900 to stock kernel and no too 1337 apps, try using it in a normal way, see if that pans out Jun 23 12:35:17 b) try charging the supposedly broken battery in external charger and see what operational time it gives you in N900 till shutdown. Use bq27200-detail.sh script to produce a nice log of battery current and voltage, come back here and offer that log for analysis Jun 23 12:39:34 Hi guys! Jun 23 12:39:58 hello. Jun 23 12:40:05 good morning squire. Jun 23 12:40:22 Hello vi__ Jun 23 12:40:29 afternoon here :) Jun 23 12:42:18 ~UGT Jun 23 12:42:18 extra, extra, read all about it, ugt is Universal Greeting Time. 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 Jun 23 12:42:49 thanks infobot Jun 23 12:42:57 didn't know that Jun 23 12:43:15 mornig vi__ :) Jun 23 12:43:22 :) Jun 23 12:43:29 s/mornig/morning/ Jun 23 12:43:30 zeq_laptop meant: morning vi__ :) Jun 23 12:43:44 typing like it's the morning! Jun 23 12:43:46 ;) Jun 23 12:46:12 DocScrutinizer05: in case you missed it, his led colours were not from the n900 but from an external charger :D Jun 23 12:46:26 aaah Jun 23 12:46:58 damn, was searching WTF this pre-summit-color-swap #ifdef been ;-P Jun 23 12:47:45 extremely funny detail you can learn from proofreading driver sources Jun 23 12:48:04 I'm afraid they refctored it out in later upstreamed versions Jun 23 12:50:01 Mmm... pink n900... Jun 23 12:53:58 http://mxr.maemo.org/diablo/source/kernel-source-diablo-2.6.21/kernel-source/drivers/i2c/chips/lp5521.c#31 Jun 23 12:54:06 maybe was on N810 Jun 23 12:55:23 merlin1991: wait..what? Jun 23 12:55:33 such a minor piece of information. Jun 23 12:55:52 We have failed as engineers. Jun 23 12:56:02 We assumed he was talking about the n900 LED. Jun 23 12:56:35 You know what they say; when you assume, you make a total cock of yourself. Jun 23 12:58:52 dman reconnects Jun 23 12:58:54 spaming questions relating to a clearly defined hw topic with random shit drawn from unrelated other hw isn't exactly helping Jun 23 13:02:04 anyway, vi_ you might enjoy this mxr line ref I posted above Jun 23 13:02:47 31 #ifdef LED_CONNECTED_WRONG 32 #define LP5521_REG_R_PWM 0x04 33 #define LP5521_REG_B_PWM 0x02 34 #else 35 #define LP5521_REG_R_PWM 0x02 36 #define LP5521_REG_B_PWM 0x04 37 #endif Jun 23 13:02:47 #ifdef LED_CONNECTED_WRONG Jun 23 13:03:49 obviously for some prototypes they swapped red and blue LED Jun 23 13:05:27 and I *seem* to recall somebody inside NOK told me this been for the pre-summit N900, where maybe they still used lp5521.ko to drive the indicator LED Jun 23 13:09:06 vi__: your "that doesn't exist" based on hard facts? Jun 23 13:10:36 vi__: you know pre-summit device owners always been supposed to NOT flash standard software, and rather wait for the special build that Nokia may or may not provoide for their very special devices Jun 23 13:19:33 * DocScrutinizer05 idly wonders how such bord specific defines belong into $chipdriver.c Jun 23 13:20:57 I mean it's not like as the chip had written "RED" to pin4 and "BLUE" to pin5. This may change massively for any other board using LP5523 Jun 23 13:21:43 clear case of vendor specific driver sources that aren't exactly fit for upstreaming Jun 23 13:22:21 DocScrutinizer05: I was partially joking. Jun 23 13:22:32 not that the LP5523 driver was any good for upstreaming anyway, regarding the very partial implementation of chip properties Jun 23 13:23:53 LP5523 can do iirc 96 program steps, "partitioned" in arbitrary ways between the 3 engines. lp5523.c allows a mere 16 steps per engine, wasting the other 48 steps Jun 23 13:24:22 (actually wasting only 47, as they use one step for default LED mapping/muxing) Jun 23 13:25:22 pretty retarded design for a generic upstream linux LP5523 driver Jun 23 13:27:19 #ifdef LED_CONNECTED_WRONG <-- lololol Jun 23 13:27:34 anyway, who wants to fix tmo's community awards thread Jun 23 13:27:39 it's going downhill, fast Jun 23 13:27:46 I expect the next meetup to be a riot Jun 23 13:28:22 * DocScrutinizer05 glances at the dusty yellow end of his ToDo list and spots "fix lp5523.c to allow full use of all chip features, esp. the doubled program step storage space" Jun 23 13:28:47 MohammadAG: ping chem|st Jun 23 13:28:54 MohammadAG, how do you calm down angry TMOers who want their phones? Jun 23 13:28:55 finally managed to build gcc-linaro-4.7-2012.06 ARM cross-compiler for scratchbox. (only x86_64 atm, might need an actual x86 distro to build 32bit; canadian-cross doesn't seem to be working...) Jun 23 13:29:01 this isn't a mod thing DocScrutinizer05 Jun 23 13:29:09 indeed Jun 23 13:29:10 it needs to be handled well by the council Jun 23 13:29:16 so what you gonna do now, boy? Jun 23 13:29:23 LOL Jun 23 13:29:59 Hurrian, tbh I see why they're angry Jun 23 13:30:26 I'm way more concerned about http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1226178&postcount=298 Jun 23 13:30:55 I'm more concerned about the theme he's using Jun 23 13:31:12 no, same here, with my theme Jun 23 13:31:25 I suspect a fsckup in mysql Jun 23 13:31:26 Hurrian, you don't fix this, you cancel results and change judges Jun 23 13:31:39 I suspect a fuck up in viewthread.php Jun 23 13:31:50 or the fact he's french Jun 23 13:31:57 haha Jun 23 13:32:00 I kid, I kid Jun 23 13:32:13 MohammadAG, probably changed email and didnt confirm Jun 23 13:32:24 MohammadAG: so speak up, it's apitty a lot of people do not speak up Jun 23 13:32:34 ZogG_laptop, it's no use Jun 23 13:32:46 ZogG_laptop: It is no use. You will get flamed in half. Jun 23 13:32:49 MohammadAG: why not? Jun 23 13:32:53 exactly that Jun 23 13:33:08 vi__: i tried to be general and ask straight question Jun 23 13:33:41 ZogG_laptop: which was? Jun 23 13:33:45 regardless this won't be fixed Jun 23 13:33:46 http://talk.maemo.org/post_thanks.php?do=post_thanks_add&p=1226165&securitytoken=1340453078-7065ec7e993a2f6813761f1f7b1d8c8415 works when I post it. same with s/p=1226165/p=1226193/ doesn't Jun 23 13:33:57 * vi__ gingerly approaches the can of worms. Jun 23 13:33:57 but i was ignored and council and defenders instead of answering just picked up those who was less reasonable and used it to put all of us in same boat to call all of us trolls =) Jun 23 13:34:04 I'm thinking of submitting something to the Qt 5 awards Jun 23 13:34:08 or the app awards Jun 23 13:34:25 and if I win, give the N9 I won there to someone Jun 23 13:34:59 I'm thinking of declaring maemo.org community officially entered lunatic state at 2012-06-20 Jun 23 13:35:00 vi__: how it is possible that the same competition can be judged by peple in list Jun 23 13:35:12 vi__: it's not about if they worth or not Jun 23 13:35:16 maybe even a few weeks before Jun 23 13:35:27 DocScrutinizer05, the entire community awards thing has been hectic for maemo.org Jun 23 13:35:31 but most answeres were personal and about how worth they are... but it's not related Jun 23 13:35:45 make troll.maemo.org a cname for talk.maemo.org? Jun 23 13:36:37 it's not right Jun 23 13:36:40 I agree about that Jun 23 13:36:49 jaska: it's easy to call troll anyone who has his own point of view and try to prove it? than other person is not less troll than first as there are always two sides of coins Jun 23 13:36:50 whether they deserve it or not, you can't have judges in a competition Jun 23 13:37:08 I stated my "official" POV regarding the whole CA several times, won't repeat Jun 23 13:37:31 zogg: i wasnt referring to any specific conversation. just think that the name would fit. Jun 23 13:37:39 MohammadAG: than speak up, they just say it's only 4 people and they ignore reasonable things and answer for those who just really not releated Jun 23 13:37:44 council need and always had all hardware for reference purposes Jun 23 13:38:07 DocScrutinizer05: what reference? Jun 23 13:38:18 Easy. The council win automatically as they have been selected as the community champions. The rest of the loot goes to whomever they decide should win. Jun 23 13:38:19 mixing this up with a CA is a terrible idea, but no worries as the whole CA been a rather toxic idea in itself Jun 23 13:38:48 vi__: how is it possible, i didn't choose them as a lot of people who don't want to be in politics Jun 23 13:40:12 as well as i think there are more worthy and reasonable people to be council(not all curent memebers but few)but they understand those resposobilities and don't want to take them, as others who want don't understand them Jun 23 13:40:28 ZogG_laptop: no, however they were elected fairly. Jun 23 13:41:05 look at MohammadAG he even don't want to speak up, as he doesn't want to ennter politics here, as a lot of reasonable people don't too. but i just feel if i don't speak up no one will, than it would pass like it was okay Jun 23 13:41:39 vi__: so? how is it related? than lets make community award judged by memebers Jun 23 13:41:55 those two things that they were elected as council do not related Jun 23 13:42:01 and if, those people to judge Jun 23 13:42:20 i would never say if i'm elected i worth to win in community. Jun 23 13:42:37 it's like your work manager would give price to himself Jun 23 13:42:37 vi_, it was tough choice, 5 got elected and 5 got chosen Jun 23 13:43:13 what? he is mamanger already means he works harder than others and is promoted so all money prices would go to him automaticaly? Jun 23 13:43:18 MohammadAG: hm? Jun 23 13:43:53 DocScrutinizer05, we barely got a council this year iirc Jun 23 13:44:22 I honestly think we need a way to vote "void" Jun 23 13:44:55 if amount of void votes > amount of votes for a candidate, the candidate won't get elected Jun 23 13:45:14 then typedef Sam void; typedef Jill void, typedef John void and we have a new council Jun 23 13:45:32 if that results in _no_ council at all, after elections, so be it Jun 23 13:45:33 vi__: for example few people think you don't deserve, but i don't really care, as this is their choice and always someone will think it's not right, so i'm neutral here whenever i think you have right or not. But self judging is something different Jun 23 13:46:05 tbh, itsnotabigtruck should get one Jun 23 13:46:16 inception, although hated by some, was useful Jun 23 13:46:17 yep Jun 23 13:46:24 plus he's helpful on IRC Jun 23 13:46:27 hm... a council with 1 attending Jun 23 13:46:28 yep Jun 23 13:46:36 I usually don't vote people up, but since he's not here :P Jun 23 13:46:59 anyway, this cheese is eaten Jun 23 13:47:14 e-yes might have helped with NITDroid, but I'm not sure if that merits a device Jun 23 13:47:24 nothing personal, it's just not the _maemo_ community Jun 23 13:47:39 indeed Jun 23 13:47:47 and without referencing names, closed source people shouldn't get a device Jun 23 13:47:51 DocScrutinizer05: today when everything falling down we need few people to lead community, but here i mean dids and not talking and showing how important them. it's mostly come from people that don't show themselve too much and not seen too much. I think a good example is X-Fade. i don't see him active lately in communication, but i know he makes a lot contribution with repos and cobs and other stuff Jun 23 13:47:54 it's COMMUNITY!! awards Jun 23 13:48:19 ZogG_laptop: what a load of shit. Jun 23 13:48:31 The employees do not CHOOSE the manager. Jun 23 13:48:42 they get fired if they don't? :P Jun 23 13:48:52 Nokia, yeah. Jun 23 13:49:05 NOKIA decided who would choose the winners. Jun 23 13:49:20 The people who provided the prizes. Jun 23 13:49:28 vi__: sometimes people change after they got promoted btw and in normal company the promoting people gather data about person from co-wokers Jun 23 13:49:46 ZogG_laptop: the analogy is invalid. Drop it. Jun 23 13:50:12 ZogG_laptop, there's nothing you could do now Jun 23 13:50:32 vi__: it's make me angry and amusing, that you think i'm less stuborn than you, as i think it is the same example Jun 23 13:50:32 if anything would make you feel better, submit an app to the app awards and give your N9 to someone else Jun 23 13:50:44 I'm actually thinking of doing that for itsnotabigtruck Jun 23 13:51:02 nothing personal, his shit helped me, his shit can't be submitted to those awards Jun 23 13:51:06 MohammadAG: actually i thought of it, as i should recieve N9 soon on other award Jun 23 13:51:20 ZogG_laptop, you won in community awards? Jun 23 13:51:29 I never memorized the list tbh Jun 23 13:52:01 MohammadAG: nope Jun 23 13:52:08 the only problem is I can't submit for an N950 in the Qt awards Jun 23 13:52:08 MohammadAG: i don't worth it Jun 23 13:52:21 ZogG_laptop, then keep the device if you win it Jun 23 13:52:30 I'd give it away cause I have one Jun 23 13:52:40 and itsnotabigtruck has an N9 Jun 23 13:52:45 no use in giving him anothero ne Jun 23 13:52:49 MohammadAG: i read Estel submition, i'm in the same position as ± Estel position, when there are those who worth way more Jun 23 13:53:19 MohammadAG: you can take n9 and send n950 as well Jun 23 13:53:28 again, I don't like saying X doesn't deserve something Jun 23 13:53:35 but the problem you want it as dev kit and not phone Jun 23 13:53:58 barely use it as a phone tbh Jun 23 13:54:01 have an iPhone for that Jun 23 13:54:10 or a Lumia, which I barely use Jun 23 13:54:33 I wonder if anyone needs an N900 Jun 23 13:54:37 considering sending one away Jun 23 13:55:33 MohammadAG: i know i don't. i think i helped a bit and tried to be always helpful and straight, but it's should come from any community memeber. Just their knowledge is different and they can't always code. But there are people like you or pali or itsnotthatbigtruck, who just deserve it, and they do not only a lot but opens source and for free. that's who deserve Jun 23 13:55:38 it's incredible how such a silly giveaway is poisoning maemo.org community. In my book all the free stuff in apps and knowledge is 10000 times more precious and appreciable than those 2 dozen devices that everybody gets worked up about now. a sad perspective on state of this community in those tough days Jun 23 13:55:42 they don't search for glorry or something Jun 23 13:55:58 MohammadAG: i want n900 Jun 23 13:56:04 MohammadAG: mine got broken Jun 23 13:56:18 but on other hand if you leave maemo.... o_O Jun 23 13:56:24 MohammadAG: send it to robbiethe1st please! Jun 23 13:56:28 I have two N900s Jun 23 13:56:43 * ZogG_laptop is scared with less people like MohammadAG left in community =( Jun 23 13:56:50 one's mine and one's a DDP Jun 23 13:57:01 the DDP one is in near new condition Jun 23 13:57:15 well, technically it's just opened from the box and used for three months Jun 23 13:57:23 MohammadAG: than if you don't send to robbiethe1st, i'll be more than glad as mine is broken Jun 23 13:57:40 i would have a chance to finish the very first app i started and didn't finish Jun 23 13:57:40 there are a few really valuable developers that recently got hurt by their N900 breaking Jun 23 13:57:42 but never left my desk, I don't take it out or anything since I don't _own_ it Jun 23 13:58:38 speaking of new N900s, I should go and get one from second-hand soon as mine is starting to fall apart Jun 23 13:58:51 ZogG_laptop: If you cannot for a second consider the notion that you are wrong, then it is pointless to discuss anything. Jun 23 13:59:04 FIQ|n900: good plan :-D Jun 23 13:59:15 I'm doing that since several months now Jun 23 13:59:28 vi__: but again you think i'm wrong and i think i'm right. why do you think you are the right one here =) Jun 23 13:59:49 ZogG_laptop: That is not what I said bro slice. Jun 23 13:59:55 Can anyone point me to how to send a text message (SMS) by command-line? Presumably it starts with "dbus-send -bla bla bla MyTextMessage" or something ... Jun 23 14:00:06 kwtm: N900? Jun 23 14:00:19 vi__: Sorry, yes, talking about the N900 here. Jun 23 14:00:20 there's a dedicated application for this Jun 23 14:00:25 Not the external battery charger. Jun 23 14:00:32 kwtm: there is a program (python script) called sms-send. Jun 23 14:00:32 whatever it was named Jun 23 14:00:36 It is in the repos. Jun 23 14:00:39 ohh, that Jun 23 14:01:22 Ok. I will check it out. But I actually want to put the command into my shell script (actually my vimscript calls it but that's a minor detail). Jun 23 14:01:39 I suppose I can look over the python script to figure out how they did it. Thanks for the pointers. Jun 23 14:01:57 kwtm you can invoke sms-send through bash. Jun 23 14:02:11 isn't that kinda the point with sms-send? :P Jun 23 14:02:15 i.e. sms-send Jun 23 14:03:02 ^/bash/sh Jun 23 14:03:16 I see. Ok, will look into that. I am trying to get my repositories set up, actually, via command line so I will do that first ... Jun 23 14:06:59 vi__: that is exactly what. as you say If you cannot for a second consider the .... Jun 23 14:07:33 i do considered both sides and took mine Jun 23 14:09:15 ZogG_laptop: how corrupt of you. Jun 23 14:09:36 kwtm: ~phone-control Jun 23 14:09:38 * FIQ|n900 see flames Jun 23 14:09:58 s/see/sees/ Jun 23 14:10:11 To chose your argument over anothers. For true transparency you should have automatically discounted your own argument. Jun 23 14:12:07 DocScrutinizer05: Thanks; I found that page on http://wiki.maemo.org/Phone_control#Send_SMS . Do I understand correctly that the entire Python program is there and I don't need to install anything else? Because I'm in the middle of configuring my new N900 I can't install packages like sms-send without messing with /etc/sources.list.d right now. Jun 23 14:12:32 http://wiki.maemo.org/Phone_control#Send_SMS Jun 23 14:12:37 yes :-D Jun 23 14:13:43 the 3rd one seems most complete and nice one Jun 23 14:16:03 >>There's also a python script that uses D-Bus instead from http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=558430&postcount=57:<< <- this one Jun 23 14:16:44 at least I already used this one and tweaked it for SMSCB rcv, tested to work Jun 23 14:17:12 god I LOOOOVE this N900! Jun 23 14:17:28 Disclaimer: it's still a piece of crap. But it's the BEST piece of crap there is in the world! :) :) Jun 23 14:17:38 lol Jun 23 14:17:51 kwtm: wazzup buddy? Jun 23 14:18:14 Looking over the phone control thing, I can't even begin to wrap my mind around the things I haven't had a chance to make my phone do. Jun 23 14:18:31 Holy cow, remote control my phone by SMS!? (And not that "make it play some music" crap from the Android app store.) Jun 23 14:18:41 kwtm you wait till you discover dbus-scripts and dbus cron. You are going to shit yourself. Jun 23 14:18:47 there's an app for that Jun 23 14:18:49 ;-d Jun 23 14:19:43 Yeah, I'm going to have to look into that cron thing ... I'm going to have to use anacron because my phone keeps shutting off by accident (delays in locking screen due to swapping, before I slip it in my pocket and have something bump the "turn off phone" onscreen button) Jun 23 14:19:45 kwtm: You are now starting to understand why for maemo 'appz' are mostly redundant. Jun 23 14:20:09 kwtm: dbuscron is...different. Jun 23 14:20:14 Yeah. I spent a lot of time on this last year when I got my phone, and finally managed to dump the built-in contacts app and just make phone calls from within Vim. Jun 23 14:20:36 Then I couldn't spend more time on it and the programming got left by the wayside. Jun 23 14:20:38 and anacron is... :-/. Use alarmed for those purposes Jun 23 14:20:41 kwtm: you can monitor dbus-system/session for program/hardware events and trigger scripts. Jun 23 14:21:04 Now my wife has an iPhone where Siri can read out her text messages. And I'm thinking, "big deal. I have espeak for that." Jun 23 14:21:25 Can't wait to start using vimscript text processing to send sms. :) Jun 23 14:21:41 kwtm: You want to have the time in russia spoken to you in chinese through espeak whenever you cover the proximity sensor WHILE the keyboard is open AND it is past 3AM? You can use dbus-scripts/dbuscron. Jun 23 14:22:18 vi__: I'll start with just reminding me there's a SMS waiting. There's an app for that, so I need to get my act together and set up the repositories on this thing. Jun 23 14:22:23 dbus cron - a really poor naming for this dbus-scripting epigone Jun 23 14:22:56 kwtm: you are thinking of sms-notify. Jun 23 14:23:23 vi__: Yeah ... I don't suppose that's a simple Python program I can cut and paste, is it? (I guess it needs to access cron or something ... is that built-in?) Jun 23 14:23:30 kwtm: just bear in mind, when you start loading the N900 up with all this 'stuff' you will chip away at the battery life. Jun 23 14:23:50 kwtm: sms-notify is a pythin script. Jun 23 14:24:04 kwtm: there is no cron on maemo, that's called alarmd Jun 23 14:24:06 Yeah, don't rub it in about the battery life. I can't believe I have 4 batteries and 2 of them may possibly be completely useless. And I can't find the 3rd. I have to get stuff from my old N900 transferred to the new. Jun 23 14:24:27 DocScrutinizer05: Right, I remember reading about alarmd. Same syntax as cron or something else I should read up on? Jun 23 14:24:37 What packages do I need to compile the simple C program on n900? Jun 23 14:24:37 kwtm: there's an app called alarmed that interfaces to libalarmd and gives you cron-alike cmdline API Jun 23 14:24:59 vi__: I meant whether I can paste in the script for sms-notify, or do I need to install the package. Jun 23 14:25:29 kwtm: ... plus a nice GUI API on top, as alternative way to handle stuff Jun 23 14:25:38 The other thing I want to do, if possible, is to have the status icons (e.g. battery charging, on 3g network, etc.) show an icon for when Fn or Shift is pressed. Why wasn't that already built in? :P Jun 23 14:26:08 kwtm: that's why I deprecated anacron and suggested you look into alarmed app Jun 23 14:26:30 DocScrutinizer05: Thx for the tips. Jun 23 14:26:34 yw Jun 23 14:28:47 kwtm: for maximum battery life: Jun 23 14:29:01 1. purchase a 1500mAH battery. Jun 23 14:29:06 meh Jun 23 14:29:15 2. Install a kernel with smart reflex supported. Jun 23 14:29:17 vi__: it's easy for me as my argument was the first one =) as i pointed out the fact of 4/5 got phone Jun 23 14:29:33 or a good *real* 1320mA genuine BL-5J Nokia battery Jun 23 14:29:51 vi__: It would have been ok if N900 shut down before the battery got to 0%. I *had* 4 batteries to swap between, and an external charger. Jun 23 14:30:05 I do have a real 1320mA battery with the hologram on it. I hope it can be rescued ... Jun 23 14:30:05 vi__: numbers please! I have no smartrelflex and get pretty decent standby times Jun 23 14:30:58 DocScrutinizer05: We shall have to disagree on this. We will not agree. I am a *HEAVY* N900 user. I know what works for me. Jun 23 14:31:04 odds are with any special kernel you import other battery hogs without even noticing Jun 23 14:31:20 DocScrutinizer05: Powertop is a great tool. Jun 23 14:31:32 I have a genuine Nokia battery that came with the phone, but it only gives something like 1050mA. Jun 23 14:31:37 still no hard numbers on smart reflex Jun 23 14:31:55 DocScrutinizer05: do you 'believe' in undervolting? Jun 23 14:32:00 Haven't ever gotten good standby times on any configuration, though. Jun 23 14:32:14 tbh no I don't Jun 23 14:32:29 DocScrutinizer05: You are an electronic engineer. Jun 23 14:32:45 P=CFV^2 Jun 23 14:33:01 yes, and thus I know exactly that undervolting will make a difference only for the times when CPU is *active* Jun 23 14:33:18 for a decent standby time you want to minimize those time periods Jun 23 14:33:28 both in duration and frequency Jun 23 14:34:11 DocScrutinizer05: definatley, however the CPU MUST awaken from time to time. Jun 23 14:34:33 So for maximum battery life I must leave my n900 switched off? Jun 23 14:34:36 DocScrutinizer05: I've been wondering -- what sort of a thing can you remove from a stock configuration of a n900 with nothing l33t installed to lessen the amount of CPU wakes? Jun 23 14:35:00 for the times when cpu is NOT in C5, you still save maximum maybe 10% of CPU(!) power consumption, while a lot of the total device power consumption is for things not related to CPU at all Jun 23 14:35:15 I get the part where one doesn't install suspicious widgets or script. Jun 23 14:35:18 DocScrutinizer05: we are arguing for different cases here. Jun 23 14:35:19 *scripts Jun 23 14:35:30 Raimu: some nonsensical desktop widgets maybe Jun 23 14:35:37 skype !! Jun 23 14:35:54 any other IM app Jun 23 14:36:28 Yeah, Skype is a complete hog when it's on. Jun 23 14:37:04 Raimu: If you are online: skype, nokia messaging, IM etc. Jun 23 14:37:08 vi__: you stated SmartReflex as number one measure to get a decent standby time - that's plain wrong Jun 23 14:37:21 DocScrutinizer05: No I did not. Jun 23 14:37:37 right, your 1500mAh battery been #1 Jun 23 14:37:43 DocScrutinizer05: I included it in a list of things to 'use/do' to get long battery life. Jun 23 14:37:58 number 3 on the list would have been: Jun 23 14:38:11 3. Minimise junk that wakes up the CPU. Jun 23 14:38:34 which actually is #1 in priority and effectiveness, by far Jun 23 14:38:51 DocScrutinizer05: I did not state the list was organised by importance. Jun 23 14:39:01 :nod: Jun 23 14:39:06 DocScrutinizer05: I said we will not agree! Jun 23 14:39:59 But doc is right. The most important one is minimise junk that keeps the cpu awake. Jun 23 14:40:06 well, if you like to disagree, I'm fine with that ;-P Jun 23 14:41:01 let's agree we don't agree to disagree Jun 23 14:41:10 I do not agree with this. Jun 23 14:43:12 Ok, all, let's just disagree about disagreeing with this. Jun 23 14:43:29 That's too conformist. I'll agree. Jun 23 14:43:39 Instead you should all help me with this Really Weighty Problem: what command line can I call to make the N900 make a short beep? Jun 23 14:44:02 I've gotten it to send a text message but I want to indicate that it was done, hence a short beep/click or something. Is it "play click.wav" or something? Jun 23 14:45:53 kwtm: playsound Jun 23 14:46:15 Actually play-sound. Jun 23 14:46:19 mhm Jun 23 14:46:37 yep Jun 23 14:46:47 ~jrtools Jun 23 14:46:48 methinks jrtools is http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools Jun 23 14:47:38 http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/xchat/notify.sh Jun 23 14:48:01 aplay Jun 23 14:48:08 mplayer yoursound.wav Jun 23 14:48:19 gstreamer Jun 23 14:48:32 screen notification Jun 23 14:48:47 i.e. a pop-up balloon thing. Jun 23 14:50:00 all way too much overhead to establish the playback stack, imho Jun 23 14:50:41 play-sound is (almost too) lightweight Jun 23 14:51:09 downside: no volume control Jun 23 14:51:42 iow it's unclear which policy play-sound is using Jun 23 14:52:51 and quite obviously play-sound has no option to choose the policy for playback of your sound Jun 23 14:53:39 if anybody knows better detail on that topic, I'd appreciate to listen and learn Jun 23 14:54:39 I actually haven't investigated if you maybe can control play-sound volume via system-signal-volume setting, or anything else Jun 23 14:55:37 I just know it doesn't follow the generic volume control, just mutes on profile "silent" Jun 23 14:56:28 kwtm: nevertheless hope that helps Jun 23 14:56:56 DocScrutinizer05: Thanks. I tried play-sound, but it keeps saying "ca_context_play_full (vol -0.000000): File or data corrupt" Jun 23 14:57:09 mplayer works, so I'll use that for now. I'll deal with the startup delay later. Jun 23 14:57:17 hmm, you try to play non-.wav ? Jun 23 14:57:44 DocScrutinizer05: Oh, the built-in ringtones, and also .mp3. SHould I be using sox instead? I do have mplayer installed already so I guess I'll just use that. Jun 23 14:59:03 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=900108&highlight=playswoosh Jun 23 14:59:26 try: /usr/bin/play-sound /usr/share/sounds/ui-charging_started.wav Jun 23 15:00:11 cranking up mplayer is a heavy operation Jun 23 15:00:21 I'd guess Jun 23 15:02:44 DocScrutinizer05: Ever did the "ramp up brightness slowly" script? Jun 23 15:02:48 does anyone have any experience with cheapo chinese 3G antennas? Jun 23 15:02:57 Raimu: nope Jun 23 15:03:14 Why glxinfo doesn't give anymore info when setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose Jun 23 15:03:15 :| Jun 23 15:05:20 Raimu: the flaw in this concept: pushing lockswitch already enables screen backlight instantly Jun 23 15:06:05 so I'd have to deal with that, in a way that I ramp down screen brightness to zero whenever screen gets locked/dimmed Jun 23 15:06:43 and that's the point where mce and its plugins being closed starts pissing me Jun 23 15:09:20 the insane bug of indicator LED breathing light getting dimmed to nearly invisible brightness whenever you lock the device in bright sunlight being another such point Jun 23 15:10:08 I mean, which insane crazy rationale might have resulted in THAT? Jun 23 15:11:18 tbh all ALS related stuff feels rather "green" and incomplete beta state Jun 23 15:12:40 I actually already pondered several times to kill the ALS driver all together Jun 23 15:14:32 Yeh, that's dumb. Jun 23 15:15:38 I actually originally thought there's something wrong with the n900 before I realized there's some adaptive lighting scheme playing with the screen, for instance. Jun 23 15:16:02 Sitting in some random room and then the screen goes darker, brighter, darker again. Jun 23 15:16:05 ffs Jun 23 15:16:48 I thought MCE was more or less exposed in meego? Jun 23 15:26:55 nope, it's a crippled version Nokia disclosed for meego's /mer's sake Jun 23 15:29:12 like they did so many times. For mer/meego they disclosed things within 5 days after stskeeps asking for it, while same stuff been on a "please disclose" list for fremantle since literally years Jun 23 15:30:47 then they disclose stuff they think will suffice for meego, and don't care about fremantle and the disclosure-request there, not even to the point of *letting us know* they just disclosed (parts of) the stuff for meego purposes. We had to spot the rocks on gittorious by random finding Jun 23 15:31:11 * RST38h yawns Jun 23 15:31:16 EHLO, gentlemen Jun 23 15:31:20 quite a nasty way to treat your community Jun 23 15:31:25 hi RST38h Jun 23 15:31:38 Whazzup, Doc? Some source code got disclosed? Jun 23 15:31:55 nah, just rant about age old mce "disclosure" Jun 23 15:32:20 nevermind, actually Jun 23 15:33:48 RST38h: I'm just still missing the sources for *our* mce, so I could finally fix some annoying bugs the easy way Jun 23 15:34:47 like the "dim notifications LED, after locking device in bright sunlight" bug Jun 23 15:35:44 I'm not all that alarmed about it since I learnt about the root cause, but it's still annoying silly a bug Jun 23 15:36:30 Sure it is because of sunlight? Jun 23 15:36:42 and fixing it would mean RE of mce binary, and patching in some bytes Jun 23 15:36:52 * RST38h is more annoyed about device going out of locked state every time it is plugged in Jun 23 15:36:56 not exactly Jun 23 15:37:06 why that? Jun 23 15:37:36 well, I agree it should be a user config option in mce.ini Jun 23 15:37:44 No idea, this misfeature has been introduced around PR 1.2 Jun 23 15:38:09 but after all you *could* fix it via a tiny scriptie for dbus-scripting Jun 23 15:38:16 I plug it into charger for a night and do not want it to wake up at that time Jun 23 15:38:21 heh Jun 23 15:39:36 RST38h: probably some designer opened a ticket "doesn't unlock screen on plugin to charger, so chargeing notification goes unnoticed" Jun 23 15:40:07 and you know, design is sacrosanct. when they demand sth, it gets done that way Jun 23 15:40:41 no matter if developers thing "what a pile of BS!" Jun 23 15:40:47 think* Jun 23 15:42:04 developers otoh won't do a sane requirements spec including some config key, when such a change request from design dept. comes in Jun 23 15:42:51 somebody is picking the ticket, hacks some 5 lines of code, tests and delivers it, and next PR it gets rolled out Jun 23 15:43:44 you probably dafely could roll back to previous mce version Jun 23 15:43:48 safely Jun 23 15:45:06 Doc: Yeah, designers are of course the final decision makers on everything Jun 23 15:45:12 and the middle management Jun 23 15:45:25 RST38h: are you sure it's not related to your setting of "keep backlight on when on charger"? Jun 23 15:45:33 I have this option off Jun 23 15:45:38 mhm Jun 23 15:46:13 I don't, so I didn't even notice this change when pr1.2 update came Jun 23 15:46:56 hmhm, I didn't know there was such an option Jun 23 15:47:11 (or is it on Maemo 5?) Jun 23 16:09:57 sure on maemo5 Jun 23 16:10:02 what else? Jun 23 16:11:23 I fail to recall if it's a standard display settings option, or in tweakr, or just in mce.ini Jun 23 16:11:36 but definitely on fremantle/maemo5 Jun 23 16:11:44 * RST38h remembers disabling it but does not remember where Jun 23 16:13:17 T900: (pre-pr1.3) settings -< display -> "backlight during charging" Jun 23 16:13:28 s/-/ Jun 23 16:13:28 DocScrutinizer05 meant: T900: (pre-pr1.3) settings -> display -> "backlight during charging" Jun 23 16:13:50 2nd checkbox from top Jun 23 16:15:27 and yes, I think it's been there since very beginning of maemo5 Jun 23 16:18:20 * DocScrutinizer05 lols @ CA thread. Council hardly came into existence at all, nobody sane would have expected it to perform in an extraordinarily perfect way. Now it shows this expectations were all justified, and a few go nuts about that fact? Jun 23 16:21:06 you elected them, you got them. You didn't run for council yourselves. There's not been a way to vote void as I suggested last time a few minutes ago. That's what you get, live with it, or do sth about it. discussing in aftermath how this CA thing got handled is plain futile and poisonous to community at large Jun 23 16:23:13 (unless of course you hope for "educating the council members how to do it right" - something at least the most agressive and annoying one of the bunch already refused to ever do) Jun 23 16:24:07 (to change own behaviour that is) Jun 23 16:25:28 to me it seemed (and seems still) council doesn't have real power anyway, so it doesn't matter. Jun 23 16:26:09 wtf is aries damage? Jun 23 16:26:41 or is he just a mad jelly butthurt bellbag? Jun 23 16:28:07 everyone is carefully trying to avoid listing the negative points of entrants in order to save a 'public bashing' Jun 23 16:28:37 NIN101: the more I'm feeling tempted to kick in and argue when e.g. FMG claims "council supposed to *lead* the community for the next 6 months" (owtte) Jun 23 16:29:10 fsck NO! they are meant to *represent* us, not to lead and govern us Jun 23 16:29:48 nobody will govern and "lead" the community Jun 23 16:29:58 yep. Jun 23 16:31:01 alas it seems quite a number of people incl most of council staff got it wrong on that minor detail Jun 23 16:32:23 like if 10% of "community" elected a dictator quintett to rule the other 90% to obey to what those 10% of douchebags (usually very new to community as well) think things should be like Jun 23 16:33:33 "we rule! be with us or be under us" Jun 23 16:33:41 no Sir! Jun 23 16:35:24 testosteron powers so many great things Jun 23 16:35:54 lol Jun 23 16:36:35 I got my very own idea why most of council refused to publish a photo of themselves Jun 23 16:37:04 people want the council to show a photo of themselves? Jun 23 16:37:13 thats a great idea, certainly on the internet Jun 23 16:37:56 well, I'm doing this even while I'm not a council candadate Jun 23 16:38:08 posting a photo of yourself? Jun 23 16:38:22 and I expect that from anybody asking for my vote, on any role whatsoever Jun 23 16:38:27 you do? Jun 23 16:38:34 how is their physical appearance in any way related Jun 23 16:38:40 "18:35:25 Lava_Croft | testosteron powers so many great things" >>> hair loss Jun 23 16:38:47 utanapischti: tell me about it Jun 23 16:38:55 hair loss in the wrong places! Jun 23 16:39:27 which place is wrong? Jun 23 16:39:29 16 year old teenies with skinhead heircut and very special tatoo on their forehead? Jun 23 16:39:35 who cares? Jun 23 16:39:44 how is their physical appearance related? Jun 23 16:40:04 *i* for one am interested in physical appearance Jun 23 16:40:17 council doesn't exist Jun 23 16:40:17 then you probably arent the right kind of person to participate in the voting Jun 23 16:40:20 it's all just a computer program Jun 23 16:40:23 pizzatime! Jun 23 16:40:26 that's why there is no photo of it Jun 23 16:40:34 as I won't vote for somebody that looks, smells, and talks like an old Nazi for example Jun 23 16:41:07 as odds are he actually *is* an old nazi Jun 23 16:41:51 i thought most germans are Jun 23 16:42:02 and a 16 year old grumpy teenager with "conquer the world" phantasies will somehow expose this on a photo as well, if only his age Jun 23 16:42:46 18:41:51 jacekowski | i thought most germans are <<<< most germans are too young to know what a nazi was Jun 23 16:43:15 and after all it's good practice since at least 100 years you get faces of your electable candidates, no matter what's the election Jun 23 16:44:07 most non-germans dont know what they are talking about too Jun 23 16:44:30 if you're considering running for council but are afraid to publish a shitty photo of your nose, just rethink! maybe council is not the role for you Jun 23 16:45:40 but this council is all about redefining council from publicly known representatives to hidden acting dictatorship Jun 23 16:46:14 and not liking to see your face published is all in line with that Jun 23 16:46:53 shadow council Jun 23 16:47:07 hell, were some of them even reluctant to disclose their real life names? Jun 23 16:48:45 http://wiki.maemo.org/images/8/82/3D03C5DC-655D-418C-98F0-919B1EAF4FAB.JPG is actually a laugh Jun 23 16:49:28 the problem with demanding pictures is that inevitably it will turn into a discussion about quality of the photos, the physical appearance of the subjects and what not Jun 23 16:49:34 well, when people ask for my photo i give them that Jun 23 16:49:37 and if this was a modelling contest, that would be great Jun 23 16:49:42 http://gallery.jacekowski.org/main.php?g2_itemId=1266 Jun 23 16:49:52 Lava_Croft: bullshit Jun 23 16:50:02 you must be new to the internet Jun 23 16:50:10 + people would be wanking to female phtos Jun 23 16:50:20 that too, but i was trying to avoid porn Jun 23 16:50:22 :) Jun 23 16:50:34 no, you must. http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council tells the whole sad story, at a glace. indeed Jun 23 16:51:10 i dont see why you make such a fuss about portrait photos Jun 23 16:51:31 they could be physically attracting to both sexes and still be horrible people Jun 23 16:51:38 Lava_Croft: and no, there's never been *any* beauty contest or complaint about poor photo quality going on for any council except last and current one Jun 23 16:51:44 tbh. i don't know those names Jun 23 16:52:06 so thats not never Jun 23 16:52:51 look, i personally always enjoy people's portrait pictures, but i just dont see how its so important to this Jun 23 16:53:23 same with real life names Jun 23 16:53:23 Lava_Croft: they could be snake people from mars, in disguise. Still no reason to tell community "F U, you won't get a photo of _me_, suckers" Jun 23 16:53:31 it is Jun 23 16:53:40 why does the community have a right to know what you look like Jun 23 16:53:45 how is it important to this matter Jun 23 16:54:28 Lava_Croft: simply because it's how community elected ... (counting) 4(?) councils befor the abysmally poor last and incredibly arrogant current one Jun 23 16:54:47 5 actually Jun 23 16:54:49 at least Jun 23 16:54:50 i think "we always did it like this in the past" is a weak argument Jun 23 16:54:58 and thats to put it mildly Jun 23 16:55:06 I think THIS is the wrakest argument Jun 23 16:55:19 and i dont know about you, but arrogance is something you can easily fake either way in a picture Jun 23 16:55:31 so what? Jun 23 16:55:35 please dont tell me that you link their pictures to their possible arrogant personalities Jun 23 16:55:45 meh Jun 23 16:55:50 hey, thats what you are saying Jun 23 16:56:00 you are obviously one of the douchebags Jun 23 16:56:05 eh? Jun 23 16:56:13 i dont agree, so i must be a douchebag Jun 23 16:56:16 the 10% to define new rules Jun 23 16:56:39 this is hardly the right way to take on a discussion like this Jun 23 16:56:39 I see the arguing is moving to irc Jun 23 16:56:46 to conquer the other 90% Jun 23 16:56:47 well, the arguing is over now Jun 23 16:56:51 Well, at least freenode isn't funded by Nokia Jun 23 16:57:01 What's this about photos Jun 23 16:57:11 MohammadAG: http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council Jun 23 16:57:24 tells the whole story Jun 23 16:57:37 someone is making a lot of fuss about some missing portrait photos Jun 23 16:57:50 because that is one of the real problems this community faces in these times Jun 23 16:57:59 i have my plasma tv open trying to tap test where the hell the problem is Jun 23 16:58:02 that is really a subject that you want to argue about on both the forums and irc Jun 23 16:58:10 the left side of it keeps flickering and going blank Jun 23 16:58:17 yes, and that one are you, Sir Jun 23 16:58:17 and then when someone does not agree, you just fall into petty insulting Jun 23 16:58:21 then sometimes it will pop back up... sucks heh Jun 23 16:58:26 like a really, really bad salesperson Jun 23 16:58:44 good luck with it, DocScrutinizer05 Jun 23 16:58:53 *I* just said the photo issue is in line with other bad practice and notion we see on current council Jun 23 16:59:06 So what if photos are missing Jun 23 16:59:47 I'm both of those guys with different nicks and I did that to have 3 N9s Jun 23 16:59:53 then that shows the one is not bothering Jun 23 16:59:59 Nothing wrong there, carry on Jun 23 17:00:25 Its a simple cosmetic issue on the wikis Jun 23 17:00:27 Not just that, I dont see what one should should express so much negativity over a subject like this Jun 23 17:00:30 not willing to follow best practice of former councils Jun 23 17:00:41 I mean, there's surely other subjects you can direct it at, more productive things Jun 23 17:00:54 Estel_: Fix it, please, kthxbai Jun 23 17:01:01 See? Problem solved Jun 23 17:01:13 No need for personal attacks Jun 23 17:01:45 Also the other guy, he's usually on irc, ping him about it Jun 23 17:02:20 i know a good way to change the subject Jun 23 17:02:27 MohammadAG: what is up with the n9 camera Jun 23 17:02:38 is it the GPS (settings?) that cause it to take ages to startup? Jun 23 17:02:42 or just not start up at all Jun 23 17:03:22 Lava_Croft: No, it's something added in between beta2 and pr1.2 Jun 23 17:03:31 something unknown? Jun 23 17:03:35 the N9 camera? Jun 23 17:03:44 MohammadAG: things started around http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog/latest.log.html#t2012-06-23T19:29:10 - read that and you'll se how we came to this silly photo topic now Jun 23 17:03:46 Idk, but it was very fast on prelease software Jun 23 17:03:47 you're running maemo on an n9? Jun 23 17:03:47 it does seem related to the GPS, but that might just be decieving Jun 23 17:04:00 the n9 does run maemo :) Jun 23 17:04:02 VERY FAST Jun 23 17:04:07 no, we had geotagging in beta1 Jun 23 17:04:24 it seemed very fast at first too Jun 23 17:05:00 I don't think it really has anything to do with the council. A lot of people on tmo wanted to *buy* an N950 or similar updated N900 type device. There's a lot of frustration (at Nokia) but now being directed at those they see getting what they wanted. Jun 23 17:05:23 zeq_laptop: i backspace'd a message of the same nature a while agoD Jun 23 17:05:25 :D* Jun 23 17:05:55 I'm not paying enough attention, just seeing the discussion roll by...

Jun 23 17:08:45 was i bitching about 16 year old? Jun 23 17:08:48 i think someone else was Jun 23 17:08:48 Lava_Croft: Don't actually do that, no seriously, please don't Jun 23 17:09:00 MohammadAG: dont worry, i dont fit im my wife's bikinis anyway Jun 23 17:09:02 Lava_Croft: and again you got it wrong Jun 23 17:09:13 ...

Jun 23 17:09:34 What I do dislike is 16 year olds with Audis Jun 23 17:09:43 16 year olds arent allowed to drive cars here Jun 23 17:09:45 Or BMWs Jun 23 17:09:45 16yr olds have audis? Jun 23 17:09:59 some do Jun 23 17:09:59 you mean the silver spoon kids or are they just that much cheaper in the eu? Jun 23 17:10:02 They have dads with $$$ Jun 23 17:10:05 ah ok Jun 23 17:10:08 Well, some of them Jun 23 17:10:16 audi is like the opel kadett of semi-wealthy people Jun 23 17:10:20 Mohammad: Lemme guess, PA government functionaries? Jun 23 17:10:26 I had a Nissan GT-R when I was 16 Jun 23 17:10:27 such a lack of personal taste Jun 23 17:10:34 I miss Gran Turismo Jun 23 17:10:36 audis aren't that good.. but then again.. no cars are nowadays Jun 23 17:10:39 i miss carmageddon Jun 23 17:10:43 they're all made in china parts Jun 23 17:10:53 Audis are good, well my brother has an Audi A4 and it's great Jun 23 17:11:03 is it new?

Jun 23 21:53:31 personally, I think we should back off from discussing it until everybody's cooled down. Jun 23 21:54:22 I would tend to agree. Jun 23 21:54:34 what, 1660 lines to read on #maemo since yesterday? are you kidding me? Jun 23 21:54:49 ah, I see, CA discussion migrated here ;) Jun 23 21:54:59 however a non-winner would suggest our opinion is biased.

I think that finally means developing 0xFFFF as main priority flasher should be higher now Jun 23 22:13:52 I'll leave you to discuss that with DocScrutinizer in your own time frame Jun 23 22:14:00 MohammadAG, LOL? CSSu is forcing many other things, already Jun 23 22:14:02 Note: requires at least 2 hours Jun 23 22:14:07 and I'm not talking about oeprator widget only ;) Jun 23 22:14:16 MohammadAG, discussing with DocScrutinizer is futile Jun 23 22:14:17 Estel_: Not as big as thumb Jun 23 22:14:25 This has a potential ABI break Jun 23 22:14:25 MohammadAG, let's wait for another two releases of cssu-testing before pushing it into CSSU Main Jun 23 22:14:38 well, so point single meritocratic argument of any con caused by thumb. Jun 23 22:14:43 side note: CSSU thumb forces you to use k-p, and not the nokia kernel Jun 23 22:14:51 so nokia kernel purists who use cssu may bitch Jun 23 22:14:59 Hurrian, yea. But that's later about cssu and cssu-kp Jun 23 22:15:06 Estel_: Camera ui and the oerator widget while indeed forced do not cause some sort of ABI break Jun 23 22:15:13 Hurrian, lets leave them non-kernel variant of CSSu, but it shouldn't be main Jun 23 22:15:25 MohammadAG, what is broken by thumb now? Jun 23 22:15:47 Thumb does, it needs a new kernel and thus we need to ensure that all kernels support it and we nee to ship our own kernel for those not using kernel power Jun 23 22:15:55 despite saving memory and rootfs space, which is rather pros? Jun 23 22:16:00 MohammadAG, see few lines above. Jun 23 22:16:00 Nothing, it's an ABI break Jun 23 22:16:09 like enter and kp_enter in terminal?;) Jun 23 22:16:15 Google ABI break of you're not familiar with the term Jun 23 22:16:19 honestly, it sounds ratyher ideological. Jun 23 22:16:23 I am. Jun 23 22:16:32 Umm - isn't thumb deprecated and partially broken on the n900 proc? Jun 23 22:16:38 of course it's up to you, but CSSU is now veyr fragmented, which is quite funny for project with so low suer-base Jun 23 22:16:38 Estel_: It requires recompiled binaries Jun 23 22:16:44 SpeedEvil, it's fixed now Jun 23 22:16:48 ah :) Jun 23 22:16:48 (objectively, not subjectively vs Maemo at all) Jun 23 22:16:49 SpeedEvil: Fixed Jun 23 22:16:57 Sorry - not been keeping up. Jun 23 22:17:00 MohammadAG, no, it doesn't. ARM binaries works fine Jun 23 22:17:08 it require recompiling to benefit from thumb Jun 23 22:17:20 No, it's not up to me, I got hammered when I said I don't mind thumb in main branch Jun 23 22:17:23 + we have kernel-power-settings that depend onw rong thing, but it's rather not CSSU problem Jun 23 22:17:33 MohammadAG, so don't let Yourself be hammered so easily, without merit Jun 23 22:17:40 DocScrutinizer is stubborn without any merit there Jun 23 22:17:53 Estel_: Yes, and if someone switches kernels they can't use those binaries Jun 23 22:17:55 and his personal ego can't obstruct CSSu development, IMO Jun 23 22:17:59 Resulting in an unstable system Jun 23 22:18:02 I agreed with kernel Jun 23 22:18:09 I see no rpoblems with CSSU-kernel and CSSU-lite variant Jun 23 22:18:19 Estel_: I simply give up, less headache Jun 23 22:18:19 it's natural, that the lite one will be maintained and featured less. Jun 23 22:18:30 wow, that's fragmented. Jun 23 22:18:43 I do not believ thumb belongs in cssu-main. Jun 23 22:18:46 No personal attacks, please! Jun 23 22:18:48 MohammadAG, bad practice, giving up make folk like DocScrutinizer think, that if they shout loudly enough, they will have everything like they like. Jun 23 22:18:52 no problem :) Jun 23 22:18:59 I'mattacking position, not person. Jun 23 22:19:07 It does not smell right. Jun 23 22:19:11 I jsut don't accept "you won't hijack CSSU" as answer, why thumb is bad, and other changes aren't. Jun 23 22:19:28 now we have CSSu-Stable, being not updated for ages Jun 23 22:19:28 Estel_: He has valid points, he's entitled to make an opinion Jun 23 22:19:34 CSSU-Testing, working as CSSU-main Jun 23 22:19:36 vi___, all that's needed to be done is to prove that thumb code executes properly on CPU Jun 23 22:19:46 MohammadAG, I absolutely agree. for opinion, not for blocking. Jun 23 22:19:55 Hurrian, it's proved already. Jun 23 22:19:57 Hurrian: yes, however it is a one way ticket. Jun 23 22:20:07 ? Jun 23 22:20:10 ...then, we have CSSU-devel, sue dby almsot no one... Jun 23 22:20:16 And CSSu-thumb, acting as -devel Jun 23 22:20:24 So, *reral* world looks like: Jun 23 22:20:24 Estel_: If his opinion is agreed upon by others then I wouldn't argue Jun 23 22:20:40 MohammadAG, I seem to reclal that You said You don't mind thumb in main Jun 23 22:20:41 anyway Jun 23 22:20:58 reality is, that we have CSSU-Testing as main, and CSSU-thumb as testing Jun 23 22:21:01 mutualy incompatible Jun 23 22:21:07 Estel_: Yes, but If DocScrutinizer and others suggested not to do that for valid reasons, I won't force it Jun 23 22:21:09 then, we have CSSU-Stable as "legacy" Jun 23 22:21:13 and CSSu-devel failing to provide. Jun 23 22:21:25 OK, no problem. i'm making my points too Jun 23 22:21:26 imo, since our N900s have such limited compute power, it's best that we utilize all it's features when we can Jun 23 22:21:35 I started the cssu, I could be thought of the main leader of it but with great "power" comes great resposibility Jun 23 22:21:35 it's CSSu maintainers responsibility, i'm not stepping in Your shoes Jun 23 22:21:49 we /may/ break some programs in corner cases, but it only means it should be fixed and tested more, not roll back Jun 23 22:21:52 eh, spidermen quotation again? Jun 23 22:21:52 There's a good user base running the cssu, we can't break stuff for them Jun 23 22:22:04 I liked times when people were watching original star wars trilogy and lord of the rings, more :) Jun 23 22:22:15 MohammadAG, who said about breaking? Jun 23 22:22:19 you have CSSU-stable Jun 23 22:22:20 Estel_: It shows when you run sudo for the first time on Debian Jun 23 22:22:26 CSSU-thumb is ready for CSSU-devel, anyway Jun 23 22:22:33 That's where I learned it, never seen spidey Jun 23 22:22:38 thanks godness ;) Jun 23 22:22:49 Estel_: Typical situation Jun 23 22:22:53 User installs cssu Jun 23 22:22:55 anyway, i jsut don't realize why CSSU-devel isn't good place for thumb Jun 23 22:22:58 User uses thumb binaries Jun 23 22:23:09 * Estel_ is listening Jun 23 22:23:18 User decided to legally hack a wifi network by using the supported kerne Jun 23 22:23:34 User blindly follows tutorial instructing him to use kernel Jun 23 22:23:47 so we have user error, already. CSSU problem? Jun 23 22:24:03 User installs kernel with WLAN drivers, ends up with unbootable drivers Jun 23 22:24:11 mp-fremantle-community-pr-thumb Conflicts: kernel-power < 51 Jun 23 22:24:11 Err, unbootable or unstable system Jun 23 22:24:15 Sorry, I'm tired Jun 23 22:24:15 there are still tutorials, where people are supposeds kp4-wl1 Jun 23 22:24:27 MohammadAG, LOL, thisa way we should use kp50 Jun 23 22:24:36 cause it break, when user flashed kp46-wl1 Jun 23 22:24:45 Hurrian: That's not the only kernel and Debian packaging isn't the only way of installing a custom kernel Jun 23 22:24:52 You could use flasher Jun 23 22:24:52 not to mention ,that this can be handled easily by dependencies and conflicts. Jun 23 22:25:04 mp-fremantle-community-pr-thumb Requires: kernel-thumb-support Jun 23 22:25:09 fixed! Jun 23 22:25:10 MohammadAG, if someone use flasher for that, it's his damn responsibility Jun 23 22:25:14 to ensure that he isn't dumbie. Jun 23 22:25:20 Hurrian, agree Jun 23 22:25:30 thinking like that, we would be sittinjg on Nokia kernel without CSSu at all Jun 23 22:25:33 anything else is idiot intentionally breaking system Jun 23 22:25:42 No, the fact that online guides make it easy doesn't Jun 23 22:25:44 anyway, I understand that You're tired MohammadAG,. not keeping You with prolonged discussion Jun 23 22:26:01 anyways, user should be able to mount fremantle rootfs from nemo and reinstall correct modules and flash kernel Jun 23 22:26:09 No, I'm tired so I will make typing mistakes Jun 23 22:26:15 MohammadAG, everyone can use dpkg --force or flasher, no matter what Jun 23 22:26:19 It's not my way of leaving a discussion Jun 23 22:26:19 ah I see Jun 23 22:26:24 no problem, I also do them ;) Jun 23 22:26:36 Well, idiot can force installation of kp46-wl1 modules on kp50 Jun 23 22:26:37 Estel_: Flasher is easier to use than dpkg --gorce Jun 23 22:26:38 so what? Jun 23 22:26:42 According to online guides Jun 23 22:26:48 arguable, but even if... Jun 23 22:26:50 anybody try a roku? Jun 23 22:26:59 we shouldn't give a shit about random online guide. Jun 23 22:27:06 shouldn Jun 23 22:27:24 If I write guige to do crossover USb cable, plug it into main, and enable hostmode... Jun 23 22:27:25 *shouldn't we simply paint a big, fat banner that idorts need to use modern kernels? Jun 23 22:27:27 Should we banish hostmode? Jun 23 22:27:51 ^^^ yes for what Hurrian said Jun 23 22:28:09 you cannot do that. Jun 23 22:28:12 actually, fmg's thumb enable patch should be in all kernels built from here on out Jun 23 22:28:19 Don't take iot as personal, but IMO DocScrutinizer is jsut pivoting CSSu to his own "vision" suited only for his particular device, which is becoming mroe and more irritating for casual users Jun 23 22:28:31 You have to make it idiot proof. Jun 23 22:28:34 SpeedEvil: no, it's not fixed. It has a _amybe_ working workaround in kernel space Jun 23 22:28:45 lol. well... he put in a lot of work Jun 23 22:28:47 honestly, we have so low ammount of devs working on CSSu, that You can't even get bug report acknowledged, when written in one of 6 CSSU threadfs Jun 23 22:28:59 CSSu-stable, CSSU-Testing, CSSU-devel, CSSU-thumb... Jun 23 22:29:06 Tommorow we will have CSSU-Thumb-testing Jun 23 22:29:06 Estel_: that is absurd. Jun 23 22:29:08 CSSU-thumb-devel Jun 23 22:29:12 CSSU-arse-crack Jun 23 22:29:19 CSSU-nokernel-stable Jun 23 22:29:23 CSSU-kernel-stable... Jun 23 22:29:25 ... Jun 23 22:29:36 and whole 3 people working on all of them Jun 23 22:29:51 + programmers of other applications, screwing this and writing for compatibility with latest CSSu only Jun 23 22:29:55 or even worse, one that they feel fancy most Jun 23 22:30:07 DocScrutinizer, is wrong, again Jun 23 22:30:22 freemangordon got *absolutely* working workaround in kernel secure mode. Jun 23 22:30:42 Judging by that, we have _maybe_ working hostmode, _maybe_ working wifi with injection, and _maybe_ working CSSU Jun 23 22:31:07 disrespecting freemangordon work, just because it doesn't suit personal tatse, is just... Well, I'll refrain from naming it. Jun 23 22:31:40 BTW, we're talking about CSSU-tumb going into CSSU-devel Jun 23 22:31:42 *devel* Jun 23 22:31:45 magiv 5 letters Jun 23 22:31:50 s/magiv/magic/ Jun 23 22:31:51 Estel_ meant: magic 5 letters Jun 23 22:32:24 no one said that it has to go stable tommorow. Jun 23 22:32:37 Just, today's plentora-repo and plentora-topic scenario is absurd. Jun 23 22:33:01 tommorow, we will end with 10 CSSu vfariants, everyone used by 5 people. + 3 variants used by devs and maintainers only. Jun 23 22:33:13 ah, whatever. Not my cup of tea, anyway Jun 23 22:33:25 * Estel_ is going to do full-backup and upgrade CSSU-thumb Jun 23 22:35:06 freemangordon, could it be related to compcache? http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1225181&postcount=266 Jun 23 22:36:15 from the other barrel of vine - I've read about harmattan view on /etc/event.d and aegis...

Possible use case are a) infobot abuse b) threats for kick on IRC c) calling "idiot" anyone, who doesn't agree. Also, see zealot or pottering.

Reportedly, on #maemo, it's only thing some people have to say, when they hypocrytic behavior of pivoting infobot is revealed. Also, see ~pivoting Jun 23 22:59:02 M4rtinK, and how he was like?

Jun 23 23:02:27 OMG it's getting ridiculous Estel_ Jun 23 23:02:38 NIN101, You're missing fun from TMO Ca thread?;) Jun 23 23:02:46 not at all. Jun 23 23:02:52 for the records: infobot is absolutely completely unrelated to Nokia, #maemo, or any other domain some people here think they have to conquer to increase their self esteem Jun 23 23:03:16 ~3rdparty is when something is not related to Nokia, @maemo, or whatever Jun 23 23:03:17 Estel_: okay Jun 23 23:03:21 ~3rdparty Jun 23 23:03:22 methinks 3rdparty is when something is not related to Nokia, @maemo, or whatever Jun 23 23:03:31 for the records ;) Jun 23 23:03:33 the only relation between infobot and #amemo is it's been invited by chanowner(!)

Jun 23 23:47:48 DocScrutinizer bitching as usual? See ~h-e-n that You've overwritten yourself, then lockied. Jun 23 23:48:49 do what Yuo want, for me You've lost any reasonability and donm't qualify to moderate anything, be it maemo irc channel, or even toy as infobot. I'll do my best, to forward every log of Your abuse to correct authority. Jun 23 23:49:21 Of course, when time permits, as we have *much* more important things to do, than one childlish chanop in IRC. Keep that in mind, no one is unremovable. Jun 23 23:57:07 Can I ban? Jun 23 23:57:10 I want to ban? Jun 23 23:57:18 Or maybe just +q. Jun 23 23:57:20 No, but you can whine Jun 23 23:57:37 Or troll. In fact, trolling is morespectacular Jun 23 23:57:57 I haven't trolled in a while. Jun 23 23:58:09 I should get the crew back on Live or something. Jun 23 23:59:51 GeneralAntilles: I'm welcoming any assistance/stand-in, in whatever form Jun 24 00:00:10 DocScrutinizer05, but that means I'd have to read scrollback Jun 24 00:00:16 and figure out exactly what happened. :< Jun 24 00:00:32 :-P Jun 24 00:00:42 well, that's part of the game, yes Jun 24 00:01:04 But my eyes are already bleeding. Jun 24 00:01:09 Why do you two want to make my eyes bleed more? Jun 24 00:01:16 actually for both, banning and (proper good) trolling Jun 24 00:01:58 I'm actually doing very little that I don't feel like mandatory moderation action Jun 24 00:02:30 when somebody is abusing ibot, I start action to fix this Jun 24 00:03:48 depending on the main field of impact, either on bot side or channel moderation side (if applicable) Jun 24 00:04:27 not planning to hurt your eyes :-D Jun 24 00:06:22 but actually I hope it's already a closed ticket, so no need for you to take further action - at least that's what I hope is result of some settings tweaking behind the scenes I did Jun 24 00:08:42 GeneralAntilles: on a more joyful topic - what do you think about our infra future?

Jun 24 00:45:16 Hello GeneralAntilles! nice to see Your writings again Jun 24 00:47:04 GeneralAntilles: there's ever before been such flamewar against any maemo council? Jun 24 00:47:32 DocScrutinizer05, the ITT -> Talk changeover was pretty toasty. Jun 24 00:47:40 mhm Jun 24 00:49:53 who's been driving that, back when? Jun 24 00:50:12 (just out of interest) Jun 24 00:50:18 Driving the changeover? Jun 24 00:50:22 yep Jun 24 00:50:29 It was part of the maemo.org overhaul. Jun 24 00:50:41 Mostly it was Reggie, I think. Jun 24 00:50:45 Don't recall entirely. Jun 24 00:50:49 That was, what, 2009? Jun 24 00:50:53 Like, 30 years ago. Jun 24 00:50:54 I more asked about proponents Jun 24 00:51:28 who came up with the suggestion, who thought it's a good (or bad) idea? Jun 24 00:51:44 Most of the maemo.org core people thought it was a good idea Jun 24 00:51:50 I don't recall where the suggestion originated. Jun 24 00:51:55 er Jun 24 00:51:59 maemo.org and ITT core people Jun 24 00:52:05 :nod: Jun 24 00:52:08 potato Jun 24 00:52:09 Most of the whining came from people whose names I don't recall. Jun 24 00:52:22 and the usual suspects rushed in whining and shouting, I guess Jun 24 00:52:39 Yeah Jun 24 00:52:47 Can't blame us for not communicating, though! :P Jun 24 00:52:58 yeah :-) Jun 24 00:53:22 what a crazy world this has become Jun 24 00:54:07 Mixed up muddled up shook up world Jun 24 00:54:30 * DocScrutinizer05 feels like inspecting fridge for a beer now Jun 24 00:54:33 i wonder what would happen if suddenly every technological device stopped wokrking Jun 24 00:54:44 we'd all probably die Jun 24 00:54:49 inspecting as if it has been there since years?

Still, no delivery Jun 24 01:23:06 I though rPi was sent via quick delivery provider, like DHL or something like that? Jun 24 01:23:44 * DocScrutinizer05 cheers at merlin1991 Jun 24 01:24:05 now they FCKD up loging system don't leg me log in - I've tried recovering password, but it requires username. I've tried recovering username, but when I provide my real name and mail (correct, as I've got notification there) it says, that i'm not in client base. WTF? Jun 24 01:24:46 anyone here received Rpi? What delivery service they've used? Jun 24 01:24:58 my rpi is still mia Jun 24 01:25:12 rpi like the berry? Jun 24 01:25:42 merlin1991, but they haven't send You notification about shipping it already/haven't charged credit card? Jun 24 01:25:54 dunno a m8 ordered them Jun 24 01:26:06 I see Jun 24 01:26:06 afaik the charged some time ago but nothing else ever happened Jun 24 01:26:18 well, good way of selling things :P Jun 24 01:26:33 is that just me or is the slivo already kicking in? ;-D Jun 24 01:27:06 aaah finally my wetware parser spit out sth about m8 Jun 24 01:27:16 hehe Jun 24 01:27:34 I wonder if Pi is going to be available in larger quantities, whenever Jun 24 01:27:41 ~m8 Jun 24 01:27:48 hah! Jun 24 01:27:53 ~wtf m8 Jun 24 01:27:55 Gee... I don't know what m8 means... Jun 24 01:27:56 I guess we have to tell her about that one :) Jun 24 01:28:03 yeah Jun 24 01:28:04 I ordered this one for personal use - ED via miniHDMI in different resolutions, for outside screen... Jun 24 01:28:18 But I also liekd to investigate turning it into mediabox, and maybe even buying more and selling mediaboxes Jun 24 01:28:19 ~m8 is mate Jun 24 01:28:19 * infobot throws a AN/M-8 smoke grenade at is mate Jun 24 01:28:29 haha Jun 24 01:28:32 dang wut? Jun 24 01:28:45 LOL Jun 24 01:28:54 Estel_: if you're going for a media box look into openelec Jun 24 01:29:07 they have a rpi build Jun 24 01:29:25 thanks, looks good. Jun 24 01:29:56 aaah, now the convo starts to make even more sense ;-) Jun 24 01:30:06 ~AK47 Jun 24 01:30:17 ~AK47 DocScrutinizer Jun 24 01:30:25 DocScrutinizer05: had *some* slivo way before I came on here, so if anything my text output is rubbish ever since ;) Jun 24 01:31:05 nah, I simply got confused by some parts missing, so I lost the context Jun 24 01:31:07 ~assasinate Farnell Jun 24 01:31:16 ~murder farnell Jun 24 01:31:25 ah, she doesn't liksten to me anymore ;) Jun 24 01:31:42 thanks to some egomaniac ;D Jun 24 01:32:07 BTW, I wonder if it's just delivery overdue, or... Jun 24 01:35:52 regarding the Rpi as a media centre - note that it currently doesn't do MPEG-2 due to licensing issues Jun 24 01:36:06 Estel_: I think it's part of their business plan Jun 24 01:36:11 currently? i.e. it did it before, or will do later? Jun 24 01:36:13 M4rtinK: it does a few others aswell Jun 24 01:36:29 Also, it does anything you want it to on cpu ;) Jun 24 01:36:34 though that is quite slow Jun 24 01:36:51 mpeg-2 isn;t used for DVDs? Jun 24 01:37:01 DVDs and DVB-T Jun 24 01:37:17 DVB-T not everywhere, most countries use MPEG-4 Jun 24 01:37:21 andy maybe DivX/X-Vid and similar ? Jun 24 01:37:23 only germany and some others incorporate mpeg-2 Jun 24 01:37:38 IIRc, xvid and divx is other cup of tea Jun 24 01:37:41 but I may be wrong Jun 24 01:37:51 anyway, what about those licensing issue? Jun 24 01:37:55 * Estel_ is going to read rPi page Jun 24 01:38:50 Estel_: the software to offload the decoding to the gpu is closed Jun 24 01:38:51 and gay Jun 24 01:39:04 yea, was aware of that... Jun 24 01:39:15 there is the discussion about it: http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=3538&sid=e401489f9fb1116993f4742f36c00224 Jun 24 01:39:19 but mpeg-2, from all standards? Jun 24 01:39:23 thanks Jun 24 01:39:44 the backend is openmax Jun 24 01:39:45 basically, it would cost some 2 dolars more per unit Jun 24 01:39:50 why exactly has it "open" in the name? Jun 24 01:40:02 like the Open Group ? :) Jun 24 01:40:15 M4rtinK: also: Two licensed codecs will be provided at launch, MPEG4 and h.264 Jun 24 01:40:16 or Open Handset Alliance ? :) Jun 24 01:40:45 yeah, IMHO they paid the licence for MPEG-4 and h.264 Jun 24 01:40:51 but not MPEG-2 Jun 24 01:41:05 oh I mixed up does and doesn't Jun 24 01:41:50 the hardware is certainly capable Jun 24 01:42:04 but there are no drivers :) Jun 24 01:42:18 well, for MPEG-2 Jun 24 01:42:49 still, I'm quite optimistic in this one Jun 24 01:42:52 merlin1991: h.264 is licenced? Jun 24 01:42:57 yea Jun 24 01:43:03 o.O Jun 24 01:43:06 they claim high profile decode runs fine Jun 24 01:43:13 the famous 1080p line Jun 24 01:43:15 there are just too many developers with the boards in their hands :) Jun 24 01:44:21 Doc you dont have a pi yet? :) Jun 24 01:44:27 nah Jun 24 01:44:33 hah :) i do Jun 24 01:44:40 not even pondered to get one Jun 24 01:44:46 I don't have one either (yet) Jun 24 01:44:57 don't make me feel envy Jun 24 01:45:03 well i didnt used mine past week .. too busy Jun 24 01:45:24 but I should get a 3D printed case for it soon from a friend :) Jun 24 01:45:33 what for do you all (plan to) use it? Jun 24 01:46:14 not finally settled .. have to much ideas but only one device :P Jun 24 01:46:23 hehe Jun 24 01:46:34 this first one is for experimenting and testing Jun 24 01:46:36 cehteh: hi, btw :) Jun 24 01:47:17 probably a media box & GPIO fun Jun 24 01:47:21 and will either end as kitchen computer, mediaplayer or some other home appliance (web-controllable sockets or so) Jun 24 01:47:40 i'll bring mine to froscon Jun 24 01:48:05 also planned to integrate it in my monitor but it cant do its full resolution (which is slightly out of spec) Jun 24 01:48:12 2048x1152 Jun 24 01:48:42 or autonomous flying qadcopter. .. whatever there are many ideas :) Jun 24 01:50:29 this binary blobs suck .. but the rest is way freeer .. build mostly up to date kernels, no (much) ugly patches, zram performs well for example Jun 24 01:50:49 unlinke the n900 where nokia patched the mm code Jun 24 01:51:21 heh, after reading this whole bullshit... Jun 24 01:51:30 (i.e. forum rPi about mpeg-2) Jun 24 01:51:47 yes that sux Jun 24 01:51:49 I really doubt they haven't go with something that use hardware Theora decoding ;) Jun 24 01:52:09 heck, I even sue theora in my N900, I don't care that it's running on CPU only Jun 24 01:52:14 BTw Jun 24 01:52:22 dunno, but there is a so big community they may reverse engineer the graphics core :P Jun 24 01:52:28 "If Yuo decode mpeg-2 to mpeg-4, Yuo should pay license fee" was my best part Jun 24 01:52:36 or broadcom may become convinced to release its specs Jun 24 01:52:36 wa sbets part* Jun 24 01:52:58 it's like "if You're getting rid of windows and installing linux, You should pay to redmond" Jun 24 01:52:59 there is a completely unused DSP on the rpi too Jun 24 01:53:02 lol Jun 24 01:53:08 hw theora is like hw skype Jun 24 01:53:11 and only one camera interface connected ;0 Jun 24 01:53:22 RST38h, what do you mean exactly? Jun 24 01:53:36 they just hunted for a cheap arm .. sadly its just the stepchild of that SOC :) Jun 24 01:53:48 the format is so messed up by cool eleet software people that doing it in hw is problematic Jun 24 01:54:09 with the difference, that Theora is open and well documented, while Skyp is equally opposite Jun 24 01:54:24 but overall, i get the point Jun 24 01:54:38 does not matter how well it is documented, unfortunately Jun 24 01:54:47 it Jun 24 01:54:52 it's messe dup so much? Jun 24 01:54:56 what matters is whether they use snippets of their own C code in the format description document Jun 24 01:55:00 oh damn, i think i'm tired Jun 24 01:55:06 I mean "It's messed up *so* much?" Jun 24 01:55:07 like Google does Jun 24 01:55:42 n8 Jun 24 01:55:44 If you cannot describe format without resorting to your particular source code, this means your "standard" is messed up Jun 24 01:56:40 so, AIUI, hardware decoding is hard because it would require work = money paid for programmers, not that it's undoable anyway? Jun 24 01:57:18 i.e. "standard" ahrd to follow? Jun 24 01:57:23 damn, hard Jun 24 01:57:23 Sorry, but I am going to leave it to you to figure out why implementing arbitrary C source code in hardware is hard Jun 24 01:57:35 Make it your homework for today, ok? Jun 24 01:57:48 sure, I admit that I'm not specialist in this :) Jun 24 01:58:13 instead, I wouldn't ask, so I'll google for it with pleasure. Jun 24 01:59:49 cehteh: n8 Jun 24 02:01:52 o fuck, gcompris on Pi! Jun 24 02:01:57 Why i haven't though about that Jun 24 02:02:12 well, i know who will occupy my Pi when not used for HDMI out :) Jun 24 02:02:52 in fact, I'm starting to regret that we can't buy two, for now. Sounds like first computer for my son ;) Jun 24 02:07:27 two ? Jun 24 02:41:09 Sc0rpius, yea Jun 24 02:41:24 one for my 3 years old Son, and one for me. Both to play with, but in different areas ;) Jun 24 02:42:00 he is already using my N900 quite much, and - to say at least - dissapointed, when I have to do something on n900 at the same time ;) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Jun 24 02:59:58 2012
