**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu May 27 02:59:57 2010 May 27 03:12:14 hey, can anybody help me out with a quick terminal question? May 27 03:15:30 i've got an eeepc 901, the one with two ssds May 27 03:16:00 dev/sdb won't mount, because of some permissions issue May 27 03:16:28 can someone please give me the proper syntax to change the permissions via cli? May 27 03:16:44 as in sudo chown something or other? May 27 03:37:06 hi May 27 03:37:28 I'm trying to put MeeGo 1.0 on my ancient EeePC 2G May 27 03:38:01 but it wouldn't install, telling me that MeeGo requires 3GB to install May 27 03:38:16 can I somehow circumvent this error and install anyway? May 27 03:46:36 ? May 27 03:46:44 nobody home? May 27 03:50:52 *sigh* May 27 04:28:27 is there a guide anywhere for building MeeGo from the ground up? May 27 04:32:24 i am trying to install meego 1.0 on my acer aspire one, it install, but when finish and restart, it crash, just black screen, not keyboard, anything, i have a AAO 15' May 27 04:32:31 AAO 150 May 27 05:06:40 any experiences with AAO 150? May 27 05:08:48 not I May 27 05:08:58 I'm using an AAO ZG5 (8.9") May 27 05:46:44 * tekojo reboots to test MeeGo 1.0 May 27 05:51:38 hi everyone May 27 05:52:53 i'm here to discover the channel, just to know what is discussed May 27 05:53:03 not a lot of time :p May 27 05:53:36 any technical discussions on going ? May 27 05:54:25 sometimes, not very often May 27 05:54:45 ok thanks for your answer May 27 05:54:49 depending on your topic, there might be more technical channels May 27 05:55:32 ok it was my aim: e. g. to see what is discussed here, so more questions than answers i guess :/ May 27 05:55:59 for example ARM team work doesn't go on in here, or n900 team work May 27 05:56:03 we have our own channel for that May 27 05:56:46 ok i understand, but as i'm a newbie on irc, i will try to find myself the suitable channel May 27 05:57:25 don't want just to talk for nothing :p (what i'm doing in fact sorry ;) May 27 05:58:39 i so hope meego doesn't have updates that suddenly require new packages May 27 06:00:01 thanks Surfa, Stskeeps and all have a nice start/beginning of days, cheers ;) May 27 06:34:01 hi all May 27 06:34:06 morning May 27 06:38:56 Hi all, got a quick question May 27 06:39:15 concerning the SDK May 27 06:40:07 What kind of an address is this: http://sdk.download.location/meego-sdk-0524.tar.gz May 27 06:41:09 they're working on SDK still May 27 06:43:01 Weren't they supposed to release it some time this month? May 27 06:43:04 Like this week? May 27 06:43:25 well, 1.0 and netbook UX was promised May 27 06:43:44 I see May 27 06:43:57 Thanks May 27 06:52:51 UX or UI May 27 06:53:20 and what does UX mean? sorry for my stupid question May 27 07:03:24 Any body has any idea how one can go about using harmattan UI framework? I have compiled and installed libdui and duitheme in my ubuntu system. I created a hello world program that creates a window and should show some text. A window is created but no text and a lot of error messages on the console. Do I need to include any more Harmattan UI components for this to work? May 27 07:03:44 see if you can get widgets gallery working, i gues May 27 07:03:44 s May 27 07:03:56 It doesnt work May 27 07:15:09 is pidgin the only IRC client available with meego (once installed)? May 27 07:15:28 irssi May 27 07:19:59 pupnik: thanks May 27 07:21:45 the current meego interface is very moblin/gnomeish orientated, when will it be worth while developing for a Qt/Quick kind of interface (if any is coming) ? May 27 07:26:08 play with the qt apps on n900 and symbian3 May 27 07:29:56 hello... someone knows where is the repo for mutter-moblin package and other moblin related stuff? May 27 07:30:41 markc: you virtualizing meego or you got it directly on hardware? May 27 07:31:12 running on a core duo laptop, hardware May 27 07:33:49 for those interested in MeeGo on N810, http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=681902&postcount=84 May 27 07:34:00 TenPhil: I don't have a 32bit ubuntu install so I was thinking of trying to get OBS working within meego, is it worth my effort to try do you think? May 27 07:38:01 ty Stskeeps May 27 07:38:24 many n810s can be put to good work May 27 07:38:53 they make great qt development devices May 27 07:48:23 morning slaine May 27 07:48:31 morning Stskeeps May 27 07:48:35 morning all May 27 07:48:40 Stskeeps: how about N800? May 27 07:48:51 my N800 is a decoration piece on my desk right now :-) May 27 07:49:24 thiago: we haven't tested the kernel on n800 yet, but maybe. May 27 07:49:45 right now we're focusing on n810 as it's easier when it comes to for example sound.. May 27 07:50:44 does the n800 have the same cpu as the n810 ? May 27 07:53:20 hi May 27 07:53:54 slaine: yes May 27 07:56:00 Can I run the new release of meego in virtualbox to try it ? May 27 07:59:47 Nadley: the netbook UI needs 3D support, maybe Virtualbox 3.2 will work May 27 08:00:26 markc: thanks I'l check and try it May 27 08:02:45 good morning. I was just wondering if the images on http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.0/core/images/meego-n900-open-armv7l/ have full support for the n900 and if they have an interface. Did anyone try them yet? May 27 08:03:33 it lacks some closed source binaries (we are working on that release this minute, ran into a last minute blocker). it comes with x-terminal. open image mostly serves as an example people can use to implement other device ports May 27 08:03:49 handset UX is supposed to come out at some point after 1.0 release. May 27 08:04:40 oh, but that means that n900 devices ARE still supported by the MeeGo project, not as a million webblogs say (on behalf on nokia officials) May 27 08:05:35 biston: yes, but meego isn't nokia, so that's the difference May 27 08:05:48 meego's a open source project with nokia and intel and others as backers and participants May 27 08:05:54 alright, thanks a lot for the info May 27 08:05:57 it's officially a linux foundation project May 27 08:06:02 the word 'support' is horrid May 27 08:06:03 uha May 27 08:07:29 it is inappropriate here May 27 08:07:45 there is no n900 meego support May 27 08:07:53 should meego get a stackoverflow instance i wonder May 27 08:14:28 iirc there was some talk over there about petitioning ideas for new instances... i dunno, just thinking out loud about support May 27 08:15:28 morning smoku May 27 08:18:55 Hi all ! May 27 08:25:19 'lo Stskeeps May 27 08:27:38 any idea where the flickr integration went? May 27 08:28:15 i see it in libsocialweb code but not in the ui anywhere May 27 08:31:40 zaheerm, there it is May 27 08:31:47 settings->sharing May 27 08:31:58 oops, wrong channel :) May 27 08:32:08 Surfa, ? May 27 08:32:13 lol May 27 08:32:20 i meant in meego 1.0 ;) May 27 08:32:28 yep May 27 08:32:34 i thought I was on #maemo :) May 27 08:32:45 so never mind.. May 27 08:32:57 the flickr integration at least for content production is decent on maemo :) May 27 08:33:20 we could do with photos app in maemo also being able to browse your flickr stuff and organise it May 27 08:37:30 or dcc a photo to contacts May 27 08:37:47 contacts -> irc interface May 27 08:42:58 zaheerm: re: flickr - that's a licence issue May 27 08:43:14 we can't distribute the keys etc. May 27 08:43:31 however I'm sure an enterprising hacker could take the code in our git and package it May 27 08:44:40 nedrichards, there is no images tab in the top meego toolbar May 27 08:44:51 zaheerm: no flickr panel? May 27 08:44:56 there's never been one May 27 08:45:06 however, there is an API to write your own panels now May 27 08:45:17 and a UI for users to add and remove them May 27 08:45:19 where should pictures and photos go then? May 27 08:45:23 to get the image files on a usb stick from windows, I guess the moblin instructions do apply? http://moblin.org/documentation/test-drive-moblin/using-moblin-live-image May 27 08:46:09 nedrichards, please could you point me to the api May 27 08:46:11 zaheerm: they used to go into the media panel, but we moved away from hornsey so it's partly a regression May 27 08:46:51 nedrichards, aaah, is media panel just banshee or a custom ui that could have photos and accessing banshee's backend? May 27 08:47:01 zaheerm: correct May 27 08:47:14 it's a custom ui on top of the banshee platform May 27 08:47:21 just like the media app is a custom ui for banshee as well May 27 08:47:32 we plan to help the banshee hackers add photo support in future May 27 08:47:38 so the same custom ui could use f-spot or other backend? May 27 08:47:59 zaheerm: sure, although i'd prefer to see a dedicated panel myself I think May 27 08:48:01 not sure f-spot has a backend/frotnend split May 27 08:48:30 nedrichards, yah probably, although photos and videos could go together just as much as music and videos... May 27 08:48:33 zaheerm: just spoken to tf and he's working on the friendly api docs for mutter right now May 27 08:48:40 zaheerm: sure May 27 08:48:57 I'd like to see them all in seperate panels i think though May 27 08:49:08 our testing found that people got a little lost with them all together May 27 08:49:14 nedrichards, also i don't see the mutter-moblin on gitorious May 27 08:49:19 even though I agree, it's more intuitive to me May 27 08:49:59 yah photos, videos, audio separated would be more intiuitive to my mother May 27 08:50:38 and photos should ideally aggregate flickr, picasa, facebook, local photos May 27 08:55:27 zaheerm: that's the aim May 27 08:59:38 Hi, all. Is there something wrong with yum databases in Meego 1.0, or is it just me? Update manager fails, running sudo yum upgrade leads to a hang-up, and even running ls /etc/yum.repos.d does so. What's the problem? May 27 09:00:01 <_Pete_> where is the instructions how to install http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.0/core/images/meego-n900-open-armv7l/ May 27 09:20:59 hi May 27 09:21:47 anyone active? im wondering if it is possible to change the keyboard layout in meego 1.0 (netbbok version) - cant find any option for that :( May 27 09:23:26 _Pete_ it's without UI anyway - right? May 27 09:24:02 ZogG: correct, there's no UI released for the handset May 27 09:24:11 =( May 27 09:24:26 and no dualboot as i assume? May 27 09:24:34 ZogG: on netbook? May 27 09:24:45 on handset May 27 09:25:20 I don't know about that tbh May 27 09:25:24 but I really doubt it May 27 09:25:30 me too =) May 27 09:25:43 just was wondering to play around with it, but i need a phone too May 27 09:25:51 azmo: is that different keyboard layouts within the same 'language group'? May 27 09:25:58 i.e. Dvorak etc. May 27 09:25:59 meego 1.0 not for phone May 27 09:26:02 :( May 27 09:26:05 :@ May 27 09:26:31 expensive brick May 27 09:26:42 nedrichards language group? its seems to be english keyboard layout qwerty and id like it to be qwertz with äöü (german layout) May 27 09:26:53 ok May 27 09:27:18 azmo: but still with english as the UI language? or changing everything to german May 27 09:27:21 azmo maybe you should check for configs? May 27 09:27:26 does it use udev? May 27 09:27:35 cant find any option for it and cant use console because i dont know live image's root pwd.. May 27 09:27:40 azmo, check the /etc/udev for any keyboard rules May 27 09:27:42 skynets: no, handset UX not out yet May 27 09:27:59 yet? May 27 09:28:04 dont care if UI is german or english.. May 27 09:28:09 i thought MeeGo won't be on the N900 May 27 09:28:13 havin a look at udev May 27 09:28:18 skynets: no, nokia meego won't be on n900 May 27 09:28:21 meego will be for sure May 27 09:28:27 oh May 27 09:28:31 hmm May 27 09:28:39 difference? May 27 09:28:49 Nokia version vs community version? May 27 09:28:58 nokia doesn't answer your tech suppot calls and you won't have their differentiation May 27 09:29:18 screw nokia May 27 09:29:31 fair enough May 27 09:29:53 since the N97 theyve been going downhill May 27 09:29:54 nedrichards anyways is it even possibler to change evryting to german right now? May 27 09:29:55 skynets: So... Nokia allowing you to install unsupported software is screw-them-worthy... Nice stance, i applaud your connection with reality, Sir ;) May 27 09:30:01 azmo: I believe the layout is supposed to change when you change the language May 27 09:30:03 well i cannot find any layout options in /etc/udev May 27 09:30:18 leinir.. allowing? you can do that with pretty much any phone these days May 27 09:30:30 android on the iphone May 27 09:30:36 android on the n900 May 27 09:30:36 not intentionally fwiw May 27 09:30:37 nedrichards but where to do that? cant find any config tool May 27 09:30:57 apple could block hacks of that order if they want May 27 09:30:57 azmo, launch the settings application May 27 09:31:07 on nokia n900 you dont even have to jailbreak :) May 27 09:31:29 there should be a language option in there May 27 09:31:31 Stskeeps, yeah but there isnt any good software to block to begin with May 27 09:31:45 i dont care if i jailbreak it, i end up with good software if i do May 27 09:31:53 Mmm, troll-tastic ;) May 27 09:31:54 the n900 has like 100 apps May 27 09:31:56 :shrug: May 27 09:31:59 either way May 27 09:31:59 azmo: however, in an off the books fashion i've just typed sudo zypper install system-config-keyboard May 27 09:32:02 this is meego, not noki May 27 09:32:03 :P May 27 09:32:04 a May 27 09:32:08 and then run system-config-keyboard on the command line May 27 09:32:14 which will certainly work May 27 09:32:16 right May 27 09:32:20 good luck with meego May 27 09:32:25 i hope it goes well May 27 09:32:27 we try to do the right thing here :P May 27 09:32:31 nedrichards: ok thank you i will try that May 27 09:32:31 gn May 27 09:33:15 nedrichards: and i found the settings finally didnt even know they were there.. its a bit confusing.. May 27 09:33:31 leinir, the difference is that you don't have proper support for official os =) May 27 09:33:57 azmo: sure, last time I looed it was a default favourite - not sure why that's not in the release May 27 09:34:04 I'll have to file a bug ;-) May 27 09:34:56 nedrichards: yeah.. i sposethat wil be changed someday.. alyways the first thing i do, tweak the settings. i like the ui and everything and was just playing around when i realized that it was the wrong keyboard layout.. ;) May 27 09:35:06 sure May 27 09:35:10 ZogG: No proper support for maemo5? Not sure i follow you there... what with the release of PR1.2 yesterday and such, i feel it's being supported quite well, really ;) May 27 09:35:14 nedrichards: settings have never been in default fav apps. :-) May 27 09:35:32 robster: It was on my list that it was supposed to be May 27 09:35:43 leinir check the bugs that were fixed, some of them are not. May 27 09:35:47 if you remember the 'that means there'll be 5 and it'll look wrong' discussion ;-0 May 27 09:35:54 nedrichards: whats the live systems's root pwd btw? May 27 09:36:04 nedrichards: hehe, yeh, but was it ever in bugzilla.. ;-) May 27 09:36:08 azmo: meego? May 27 09:36:09 azmo: I'm not totally sure, bet it's meego May 27 09:36:11 leinir, btw the adv says about flash , but sites are going for 10, and you don't =-) May 27 09:36:23 robster: thus my point above - bug or it didn't happen ;-) May 27 09:36:33 "meego is not the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." May 27 09:36:35 o0 May 27 09:36:36 leinir, you don't have any info and the main force are in meego now... 1+1 =... May 27 09:36:45 azmo: seriously May 27 09:36:47 nedrichards: exactly, and it's not something we can upgrade through either.. May 27 09:36:47 hilarious May 27 09:36:53 Hi folks, does the Meego 1.0 work on core 2 duo machines with intel graphic (nott gma500)? Or is it just Atom based stuff? May 27 09:36:58 azmo, have you found keyboard rules? May 27 09:37:06 azmo: yeh, that's the case on the live system su will work. May 27 09:37:17 inteallahonsen, why would you want it on core 2 duo? May 27 09:37:21 inteallahonsen: I see no reason it wouldn't work May 27 09:37:37 ZogG: Oh well, that's your opinion i'm sure - i just happen to find maemo decidedly better supported than e.g. the HTC handsets running... well, anything really ;) May 27 09:37:40 so long as the features are >Atom and the graphics has an open driver it should work May 27 09:37:41 inteallahonsen: should work, needs SSÂÂE3 (core 2+) and i9+ graphics May 27 09:37:42 zogd nope.. not yet. i managed to change language (but change will occur only when next login and im on a live system so reboot is out of the question.. any manual logout/login options there? May 27 09:37:46 (htc as an example, there's plenty others out there) May 27 09:37:59 why cant meego connect to wpa2 networks? May 27 09:38:07 leinir, maybe HTC because they don't have their own Os, but nexus ? May 27 09:38:08 azmo: press power button twice May 27 09:38:08 ZogG: Because I dont go to the store and spend shitloads of cash when I got a laptop already? May 27 09:38:09 summel: that's a bug, it can for me May 27 09:38:15 oO May 27 09:38:24 summel: when you open a bug report make sure to include the output of lspci May 27 09:38:30 yes, please May 27 09:38:31 i cant join wpa2 personal or wpa2 enterprise networks May 27 09:38:35 what robster said May 27 09:38:39 also synching with my n900 does not work May 27 09:38:41 robster, nedrichards: Thanks! :D May 27 09:38:48 inteallahonsen, but the point f meego for netbooks, the laptop can run a regular OS =) May 27 09:38:53 and brightness controls also dont work :/ May 27 09:38:53 summel: I've not tested enterprise but I have a personal one at home May 27 09:39:06 inteallahonsen: when you run it on a laptop you'll see big screen mode - new for 1.0 May 27 09:39:20 nedrichards: big screen mode? May 27 09:39:20 things will behave a bit more like a normal os than on a netbook May 27 09:39:29 robster ah su works yeah thx.. pressig power twice now May 27 09:39:37 i also have a wpa2 personal network at home... but when i enter the password i just get an "connection failed" May 27 09:39:46 summel: that's something that's only guaranteed to work on productized builds when you buy a netbook with MeeGo preloaded May 27 09:39:51 nedrichards: ah.. lol as in opposed of small screen 7-10 inch. May 27 09:39:53 eww May 27 09:40:01 inteallahonsen: yup May 27 09:40:03 summel: that kernel support / hardware just isn't there for all the variety of netbooks. May 27 09:40:06 robster: ok pressing it twice made the system shutdown ;) May 27 09:40:08 ok im back to another distribution then -_- May 27 09:40:12 ZogG: The nexus is Google's dev device - if you take a look at the google phone 1, well... how well is that being supported now? :) May 27 09:40:19 azmo: yup and then you can reboot by turning it back on ;-) May 27 09:40:56 robster: lol ok but on a live system i dont think the changes will survive the reboot :-p May 27 09:40:58 does bluetooth syncing with an n900 work for anybody else? May 27 09:41:13 azmo: ah, yes. that's true isn't it. May 27 09:41:17 robster: well i wil install it anyways now.. May 27 09:41:35 azmo: the live system is only in english i guess :-) May 27 09:41:35 leinir new android is going to nexus. and maemo is dead, while n900 is 6 month old and there a lot of non-functional stuff. meego is not going to n900 officialy May 27 09:41:39 robster the last hint with the console ability and the settings app decided it for me :) May 27 09:42:02 azmo: on the installed version, you user is in the sudoers file btw, it's just a live system thing May 27 09:42:27 robster think so.. was just confused about the apparent lack of settings app but now im quite happy May 27 09:43:17 azmo: http://help.meego.com/netbook/settings has the documentation May 27 09:43:44 Are there any plans for a backport of the .34 kernel with trim support ? May 27 09:44:13 Votan: hopefully meego will go on 2.6.34 when it's released. May 27 09:44:48 robster thx its getting even better ^^ May 27 09:45:42 leinir i'm not one of the whining guys, i'm trying to be objective. i love n900 and maemo, but maemo doesn't got the fully functional OS and it wouldn't because Nokia is all in MeeGo now. as well i don't like google(it's evil) but their support is much better. May 27 09:46:13 ok thank you all i will try an install now ^^ May 27 09:47:02 Stskeeps i see, is there no pre-compiled .34 kernel with standard meego settings ? like the mainline-ppa for ubuntu ? May 27 09:47:50 Votan: 2.6.34 wasn't released when freeze in meego came about, at least May 27 09:48:46 Stskeeps yes, but maybe some dev compiled a .34 kernel with the meego settings and could put it online for testing purposes or at least TRIM support for people with modern SSDs May 27 09:48:49 I just found this: http://www.nokian900applications.com/meego-1-0-for-nokia-n900/ May 27 09:49:21 Votan: haven't seen it yet. ask on mailing list :) May 27 09:49:21 and n900 is not the phone, it' expensive handset and the its wrong to support it only for half year. i believe will get pr1.3 with small fixes and maybe 1.4 but you even don't know that as nokia's policy is " we don't own you anything", you bought it - okay, that's what you have. on other hand look as n900 was launched in Hong-Kong not that far ago, and it was already when Nokia switched to MeeGo. it's not right to make an 6months old O May 27 09:49:22 S. and i wouldn't care if maemo was fully open with open drivers, than community would do what Nokia haven't done May 27 09:50:20 meh, that's supposed to be what is changing with meego :P May 27 09:51:13 Stskeeps, what n900 drivers currently are supported in MeeGo? May 27 09:51:41 Stskeeps, if i would install it and get hildon on it, how workable it would be? May 27 09:51:52 ZogG: image with closed bits? bluetooth, wifi, 3d acceleration, battery charging, telephony stack in progress May 27 09:52:06 sec May 27 09:52:28 so i can get functional thing except phone? May 27 09:52:49 i mean, technically, yes, but there's no UX and there's a lot of leg work in putting hildon anywhere due to maemo gtk May 27 09:53:21 ZogG: http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Hardware_support May 27 09:53:48 Stskeeps is pr1.2 hildon still in gtk? May 27 09:53:56 odin_: yes May 27 09:54:00 *ZogG May 27 09:54:06 okay May 27 09:54:13 and i dont think it will change May 27 09:54:17 and meego pkgs are rpm? May 27 09:54:22 yes May 27 09:55:10 but i would be able to convert deb pkgs from maemo to meego's rpm and install them manuanlly May 27 09:55:26 right, except that maemo gtk is incompatible and older version of gtk May 27 09:55:36 than i could run hildon but still would need stuff to work with bluetooth and wifi and so on? May 27 09:56:00 Stskeeps, with hildon you mean or meego? meego has gtk? May 27 09:56:14 meego has gtk but it isn't maemo gtk :) May 27 09:56:15 Is ConnMan now actually supporting VPN ? May 27 09:56:18 trust me, it is a bit complicated May 27 09:56:32 hi May 27 09:56:42 Stskeeps i'm talking theoretically and just want to understand how it works =) May 27 09:57:42 is netbook meego suppose to be for multitouch screens? May 27 10:00:30 i wonder when the first crazy person comes around that wants to put meego on his 770.. May 27 10:00:34 ZogG: no. May 27 10:00:51 Stskeeps: I would have done it already if I had such hardware May 27 10:00:56 Stskeeps if i had n700 May 27 10:01:09 Stskeeps: but I can try with Freerunner if that makes you happy May 27 10:01:17 Tm_T: nah, we build for armv5 and armv7 May 27 10:01:18 i'm thinking more and more about gentoo May 27 10:01:35 Stskeeps: I know, that wouldn't stop me though (: May 27 10:01:45 Stskeeps, i want meego port for 8086 May 27 10:01:59 Tm_T, wouldn't stop you, but you'd still have to recompile all your applications etc. May 27 10:02:07 i mean 386 =) May 27 10:02:13 Termana: I know that very well (: May 27 10:02:37 that was the point in my comment (:) May 27 10:02:56 whatever makes Stskeeps happy May 27 10:09:42 <_Brandon_> hi, anyone knows how to use the meego .img file under vmware/virtualbox? I got a black screen with vmware and a freeze with virtualbox after selecting "boot meego" May 27 10:11:52 can v May 27 10:11:58 mware use .img? May 27 10:12:25 virtualbox can, but I have the same issue May 27 10:12:28 freezes May 27 10:12:34 <_Brandon_> well the img looks like an iso file to me May 27 10:12:39 installing worked but after reboot nothing shows May 27 10:13:41 I've installed meego to my Acer Aspire One but it doesn't work. I get: init id x respawning too fast, disabled for five minutes, repeatedly line by line on the screen and no further progress May 27 10:13:49 stefan99: AFAIK Virtualbox doesn't accelerate DRI2 so it won't work May 27 10:18:15 nedrichards, ok thanks, to bad though :( May 27 10:20:36 <_Brandon_> apparently with vmware it didn't freeze, I can login from a console, but xorg is probably crashing May 27 10:21:31 stefan99: yeah, it's annoying - we've been spending some time working on this for the SDK and stuff but it's a little way off still May 27 10:22:13 how can I make it work? May 27 10:26:45 the meego install was succesful ^^ May 27 10:26:51 azmo: excellent May 27 10:26:55 unfortunately, my win xp does not boot anymore now May 27 10:27:41 there is much work to be done to improve meego.. grub isnt supposed to kill my xp boot... tryig to restore now May 27 10:28:35 small favors May 27 10:29:56 I'll try and repeat the installation - is there anything I should do or shouldn't have done, to avoid this init idx respawning nonsense? May 27 10:32:03 Hi-m testing meego on the eeepc... It is a surprise for me that the main UI is the old moblin clutter UI May 27 10:33:05 is a qt UX in the workings? May 27 10:33:19 vincenzo1234: not that I'm aware of May 27 10:33:59 where will qt be emploied? just for apps development? May 27 10:34:43 vincenzo1234: well, we're shipping with Qt and the Garage app is written in it May 27 10:34:51 so it's up to developers if they want to use it May 27 10:35:04 other UXs will have different policies and be written in different tech May 27 10:36:03 from the press I understood that the main gui toolkit for meego was going to be qt... May 27 10:36:35 as it is now it looks more a side feature/option than a core technology. May 27 10:36:53 It will be, it might just take some time to turn around Mobiln apps etc. to make them Qt. May 27 10:37:07 The MeegoTouch UI framework is based on Qt (QGraphicsView) May 27 10:37:54 macron: ah, ok, that makes a whole lot of sense! May 27 10:38:34 Is Skype available for MeeGo? May 27 10:38:59 ieatfish: I've used the Fedora version succesfully May 27 10:39:23 macron: any idea on when to expect the <>?;''massive transition to qt May 27 10:45:05 I've just reinstalled it to my Acer Aspire One and it worked properly this time. I unplugged the external monitor this time during the installation and initial booting, if that made a difference. May 27 10:47:30 macron: sorry I got disconnected May 27 10:50:33 macron: do you know when the transition to qt will take place for the moblin apps? May 27 10:56:35 Is there a guide to flashing the official MeeGo to the N900 (Linux 64 bit)? May 27 10:57:11 chances are you'll want to wait a little bit for us to publish the closed image. both have only a x terminal so careful what you wish for :) May 27 10:57:28 Does anyone know if MeeGo 1.0 has an irc client? May 27 10:58:09 tekojo: not in the default install but you can install telepathy-idle and there should be other apps available in extras/garage either now or soon May 27 10:58:30 Stskeeps: makes me smile how much people expect everything to be ready now as version number is 1.0 May 27 10:58:36 nedrichards: thanks that's one of the things that is lacking May 27 11:03:19 Tm_T: I had been happy if it at least booted ;) May 27 11:05:37 tekojo: I thought that all geeks needed was gcc, terminal and a bit of magic? what the hell are you asking for, a GUI?! May 27 11:05:44 lolno. May 27 11:05:53 Myrtti: especially for irc... May 27 11:05:54 get a compiler, hippie ;-) May 27 11:06:10 *snerk* May 27 11:06:52 * Tm_T goes put irssi to default installs for now on May 27 11:07:45 or perhaps hcirc, hard coded to one channel, with manual pong answers to server etc May 27 11:07:52 even _our_ company has a shell server with irssi on it. true, it is mainly used to connect to the localhost bitlbee which connects to the localhost xmpp server, but still! IRSSI! May 27 11:08:29 on unrelated note, I just had my first cup of coffee in about a month. May 27 11:08:34 WHEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeee May 27 11:08:37 I can tell May 27 11:08:42 * Tm_T huggles Myrtti May 27 11:10:13 is there a faq for the 1.0 netbook release? May 27 11:10:29 * FunkyPenguin is looking specifically at minimum screen resolution May 27 11:10:47 Myrtti: I just want an irc client I already got the compiler and kernel sources :) May 27 11:11:24 tekojo: for irc on meego we have empathy 2.30.1 May 27 11:11:48 im on it May 27 11:20:27 FunkyPenguin: same as before 1024x600 May 27 11:21:28 whilst it may actually work on smaller than that, I've never tested it on less May 27 11:22:21 nedrichards, ok thanks May 27 11:22:37 FunkyPenguin: it works better on bigger screens now though May 27 11:22:58 hmm looking at my crappy old 701 it seems to work fine, other than not seeing the battery May 27 11:24:04 im glad you dropped the web panel though, that was a pita to build for me :) May 27 11:25:44 FunkyPenguin: it's not dropped! May 27 11:25:51 some nice men in china worked very hard on that May 27 11:26:01 it works with chrome and everything May 27 11:26:08 oh? May 27 11:26:19 hmm maybe the 701 still cant display it properly May 27 11:26:35 * FunkyPenguin tries with an external monitor May 27 11:26:50 FunkyPenguin: go to settings and have a play with toolbar settings May 27 11:26:55 or, as you say, an external monitor May 27 11:26:58 which now works properly May 27 11:27:03 with hot plug and unplug May 27 11:27:44 http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=ODI5MA :) May 27 11:30:12 is there going to be a MeeGo summit in Ireland ? (I can't remember if it was a maemo summit or meego) May 27 11:30:45 ireland May 27 11:31:33 nedrichards, ok looks like 800x480 is still too much of the suck :/ May 27 11:31:43 FunkyPenguin: I'm afraid so May 27 11:32:31 sivang: yes, in Dublin May 27 11:33:26 CosmoHill: is there a wiki for taht or some way to register ? May 27 11:34:28 http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo_Conference_2010 May 27 11:36:58 11:34 < CosmoHill> http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo_Conference_2010 May 27 11:36:58 11:34 < CosmoHill> http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo_Conference_2010 May 27 11:37:06 Dagnamit .. May 27 11:37:11 ah! May 27 11:37:11 gnome terminal is buggered. May 27 11:37:25 there's an echo in here May 27 11:37:27 alterego: hehe May 27 11:37:37 Heh, actually I think it's my mouse, works with the mouse pad O_O May 27 11:37:59 Fixed :) May 27 11:38:24 ok the customisable toolbar is great! May 27 11:38:29 I've spotted a typo on that page May 27 11:39:00 is there going to be there discussion and spec'ing for the user experience working group? May 27 11:43:13 isn't Amy Leeland the person intel flew over to dublin to check it out? May 27 11:44:42 " What is the smooth way to move RPM -> DEB?" May 27 11:44:46 isn't that the wrong way around? May 27 11:49:54 depends on what you want? May 27 11:52:28 ah I see, it might be the right way around May 27 11:52:57 hey dazo May 27 11:53:20 CosmoHill: hi! May 27 11:56:58 dazo: I got RHEL 6 beta working with grub2 :) May 27 11:57:44 * dazo is a bit confused .... tries to remember when/where he discussed RHEL6 and grub2 .... May 27 11:58:54 well I've never talked to you so it wasn't with me May 27 11:59:16 CosmoHill: nice , is this a special thing? e.g. grub2 not stable enough still ? May 27 11:59:38 it took me a few days to work out the configuration May 27 12:00:13 CosmoHill: ahh :) that makes me feeling less crazy :) May 27 12:01:03 is it possible to get some real debugging info from mic-image-creator, especially during the packages install part? May 27 12:01:04 I was going to ask you if you knew somebody but I can't find their name in my logs May 27 12:01:17 I have packages failing installation because of exits in scriptlets, but I can't really debug them May 27 12:01:25 (--verbose, --debug don't do anything) May 27 12:07:11 dazo: http://black-flag.co.uk/wordpress/2010/04/23/red-hat-enterprise-linux-6-beta-grub-2/ << Hope you find that useful May 27 12:08:56 * dazo is surprised .... he is on a MeeGo channel, and gets hints about RHEL6 and Grub2 :) May 27 12:09:03 CosmoHill: thx! :) May 27 12:09:07 sshh May 27 12:09:08 >.> May 27 12:09:09 <.< May 27 12:09:10 it's actually interesting, though ;-) May 27 12:09:13 yay May 27 12:11:27 aargh ok so how does one burn a .img file to disc in linux? May 27 12:11:44 the biggest problem i have with rhel6 is that it dies after waking from sleep May 27 12:11:49 wodim trouc.img May 27 12:11:56 FunkyPenguin: hmm May 27 12:12:09 I think i just renamed img to iso and burnt it May 27 12:12:18 oh May 27 12:14:26 CosmoHill, yup that works thanks :) May 27 12:15:33 :3 May 27 12:17:32 If I were to report a bug related to cryptsetup / LUKS, what product an May 27 12:17:44 If I were to report a bug related to cryptsetup / LUKS, what product and component would I use? May 27 12:18:30 product / compoent? May 27 12:18:38 yes, in bugzilla May 27 12:18:56 chromium 1 tab is ok but 4 or 5 and became slow slow slow May 27 12:19:12 I don't know, sorry May 27 12:19:32 koupsaa: there's a reason they're not first May 27 12:20:48 yes May 27 12:27:08 infobot: info May 27 12:37:48 hmm, firefox gets pissy if you open a 125MB html file. May 27 12:38:52 possible to change chromium to moblin-internet-browser in internet panel? i see moblin-internet-browser in app May 27 12:39:47 hi May 27 12:41:04 I've just heard that the default audio player on meego is banshee. does that mean meego has a core dependency on mono ? May 27 12:42:49 ... May 27 12:43:00 considering that Banshee is written for Mono May 27 12:43:04 wouldn't you think yes? May 27 12:43:12 *sigh* May 27 12:43:26 hi tomaw May 27 12:43:37 TSCHAKeee: simple "yes" would have sufficed May 27 12:43:49 how was that decided ? May 27 12:44:06 wonderful, I love waking up to religious discussions. May 27 12:44:18 Tm_T: it was a very stupid question. May 27 12:44:35 TSCHAKeee: didn't make your answer look any better though (: May 27 12:45:33 TSCHAKeee: religion aside, we got a patent problem issue there. I'd like to know what the decision process behind pulling mono in was May 27 12:45:45 the default audio player should maybe be left to such people as flock to that territory May 27 12:45:56 * dazo remembers a quote he learned as a little boy ... "There ain't no stupid questions, only stupid answers!" May 27 12:46:12 and stupid quotes :) May 27 12:46:45 nah May 27 12:46:56 "There are no stupid questions, only stupid people." May 27 12:47:25 sounds more like how peterz (kernel guy) would phrase it May 27 12:47:39 actually the meego audio player should depend on as many proprietary things as possible to give each dork company a piece of bark to scratch their initials May 27 12:48:02 make it depend on mono *and* java! May 27 12:48:20 ans qt! May 27 12:49:32 seriously ... pulling in mono is only suitable for Novell ... who got this treaty with Microsoft .... mono is in a big grey area of patents ... May 27 12:50:21 dazo: that's why I'm really puzzled. especially with the apple-nokia patent lawsuit ongoing, I thought nokia would have known better May 27 12:50:28 it's called "Novell has their version of MeeGo too." May 27 12:50:50 TSCHAKeee: I think it's even called MeeNoGo :-P May 27 12:51:56 pinchartl: I agree ... but this might have been inherited from Moblin ... it might (hopefully!) change in the future May 27 12:52:19 btw ... how useful is MeeGo on N900 nowadays ... still no GUI and no phone features? May 27 12:52:25 dazo: that's the kind of answer I'm looking for. why it's there, and if it will stay May 27 12:52:26 core dependency? no, its ux dependency May 27 12:52:29 it's been announced recently May 27 12:52:40 so I don't think it's been inherited from moblin May 27 12:52:41 specificlly netbook ux May 27 12:54:09 Stskeeps: sorry, I should have expressed myself more clearly. it's indeed not a "core" dependency per-se, but a dependency of central components May 27 12:54:32 hey guys May 27 12:54:48 what tool do you use to create the bootable usb? May 27 12:55:05 dd May 27 12:55:13 ah! ok May 27 12:55:14 from the image you mean? May 27 12:55:38 yep May 27 12:55:51 nacho usb-imagewriter in ubuntu May 27 12:55:56 damn May 27 12:55:58 there are instructions on the website May 27 12:56:00 argh, the moblin-web-panel keeps crashing May 27 12:56:04 grrrrrrr May 27 12:56:20 TenPhil, cool thanks May 27 12:56:21 I know it's been announced been announced ... but it's not clear for me how usable it will be on the N900 :( May 27 12:56:22 Stskeeps, i read about twm =) how does it look - any screenies? May 27 12:56:29 there a torrent of the 1.0 image floating around? May 27 12:56:45 * TSCHAKeee laughs May 27 12:56:56 wow.. May 27 12:57:14 2007, 11, 20) May 27 12:57:15 dammit May 27 12:57:18 pmarsh: no, why? May 27 12:57:23 sorry, just had an "old guy" moment May 27 12:57:24 pmarsh, you can get it from off.site? May 27 12:57:41 you can get it from the website or a mirrorr May 27 12:57:47 * TSCHAKeee remembers when twm was folded into X11 May 27 12:58:08 CosmoHill: just trying to help alleviate the bandwith :) May 27 12:58:36 TSCHAKeee, it's in repo so u can get it on n900 =) May 27 12:58:57 zogg_laptop: twm was the first window manager to be bundled with X version 11. May 27 12:59:20 zogg_laptop: written late 1986... it's very minimal. May 27 13:00:29 it was built just as a matter of course with X, until Xorg modularized the tree. May 27 13:02:10 TSCHAKeee, grandpa, is it you? May 27 13:03:05 :P May 27 13:03:14 i'm not that old. May 27 13:03:38 maybe i'm that young =) May 27 13:04:07 Vaughan-Nichols of computerworld has successfully installed and ran MeeGo in VB 3.2, but I can't reproduce the result May 27 13:04:52 Visual Basic? May 27 13:05:18 VirtualBox May 27 13:05:18 VirtualBox, probably May 27 13:05:26 oh thank god May 27 13:05:41 TenPhil: is there an article somewhere? May 27 13:05:53 TenPhil: there's a good chance he replaced the kernel May 27 13:05:58 article for what? May 27 13:06:17 http://blogs.computerworld.com/16198/meego_the_new_netbook_linux_arrives May 27 13:06:29 oh computer world is a website May 27 13:06:49 yep May 27 13:06:58 often called confuserworld :-P May 27 13:07:06 hehehe May 27 13:07:19 TenPhil: ah I see what he did May 27 13:07:40 he uses a program that comes with virtual box to convert it from an img to vdi file May 27 13:07:44 Hi! is it true that I can install meego 1.0 on my N900 ? May 27 13:07:51 yes May 27 13:08:05 the_lord: please do and tell me if it is usable :-P May 27 13:08:41 * dazo read something that the user experience was slated to start in June for N900 May 27 13:08:42 dazo, I could say exactly the same to you :P May 27 13:08:53 * TSCHAKeee facepalms May 27 13:08:56 the_lord: then you need to be patient :-P May 27 13:09:04 good god, we get this question 47,000 times a day May 27 13:09:06 the_lord: from what I've heard, there's no UI at the moment May 27 13:09:07 hmmm, tried that as well but not from within VB May 27 13:09:07 I can't get meego to boot on my machines :( May 27 13:09:09 no matter where it's posted May 27 13:09:32 TSCHAKeee: about the n900? May 27 13:09:43 * TSCHAKeee gives CosmoHill a mushroom print May 27 13:09:46 :P May 27 13:09:56 ewwww May 27 13:09:58 TSCHAKeee: get it on the MeeGo news ... and point people there ;-) May 27 13:10:08 TSCHAKeee, if you're so tired, post the answer to the topic, it's kind of logic that the users come here to ask precisely that question May 27 13:10:21 CosmoHill, I ran it from a usb and it worked fine. what processor you got? May 27 13:10:21 well we did May 27 13:10:26 but we had to put other stuff there too May 27 13:10:29 :P May 27 13:10:38 Intel T5730 May 27 13:11:40 CosmoHill: How far do you get? May 27 13:11:52 http://black-flag.co.uk/files/meego-4096bs-failed.jpg May 27 13:12:07 mum's failed in a similar way May 27 13:12:16 but I was able to use ctrl alt del May 27 13:12:26 looks like a bad filesystem May 27 13:14:27 I might zero the SD card and try again May 27 13:20:53 hello May 27 13:21:07 meego does not recognize my nokia phone as a modem May 27 13:23:04 could be a missing package May 27 13:23:12 and it does not mount any of my local drivers May 27 13:23:18 meego is already having GUI and everything? Are there screenshots? May 27 13:23:28 sivang: yes on the website May 27 13:23:31 or wiki May 27 13:23:33 sivang > yes May 27 13:23:47 seems pretty snappy though May 27 13:24:24 CosmoHill: made by intel/nokia or just reusing the maemo stuff ? May 27 13:24:27 despite buggy May 27 13:24:37 it's screen shots of meego May 27 13:25:02 ufa: if it were bug free then there wouldn't be any work to do May 27 13:25:06 CosmoHill: so one can already install it on N900 for example and use it for calls and stuff instead of Maemo? May 27 13:25:12 no May 27 13:25:31 the screenshots are for the netbook UI, not handset May 27 13:25:33 http://meego.com/devices/netbook/netbook-screenshots May 27 13:25:57 CosmoHill > ya, but there is functional bugs, like do not mount local drives, nor usb sticks May 27 13:26:18 ufa: yes, I'm counting on it , I want to establish a pro-active QA team, that bugs like: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9089 would not be considered as "no software bug" May 27 13:26:19 Bug 9089: Upgrading Maemo itself (nokia official recommended upgrade) failed with "no enough space" on target device. May 27 13:27:07 I just got a couple of more iphoners laughing at me today for that, and a couple of disappointed freinds with N900. May 27 13:27:34 my n900 had the micro usb pulled out May 27 13:27:41 it is in transit to repair center May 27 13:27:44 :( May 27 13:28:46 sivang maemo != meego May 27 13:30:43 I think I might consider making some space on my harddrive to run it. May 27 13:31:20 ufa: not a maemo issue anymore, but something I wanna make sure will not re occur in MeeGo, hence the mention here. May 27 13:33:19 http://moblin.org/documentation/moblin-overview/netbook-screenshots LULZ May 27 13:34:54 sivang > :) May 27 13:35:47 hi May 27 13:35:54 HI all May 27 13:36:39 what packages are available for meego? Is there an overview somewhere? May 27 13:37:21 * CosmoHill gives up trying to boot meego May 27 13:44:59 hm is it possible to install meego on usb stick? May 27 13:45:09 yes May 27 13:45:13 infact it's designed to be May 27 13:45:35 if you follow the install instructions it tells you how to put it onto a usb stick / memory card May 27 13:45:59 if you'd like to burn it to a CD change the .img to .iso and burn that May 27 13:47:35 is it true you can't connect to wpa2 networks? May 27 13:47:37 CosmoHill: for testing i've dd the .img on usb stick. but the installer don't recognize another usb stick to install on it May 27 13:48:30 ah May 27 13:48:45 markuman: can't you run the live image and save to the usb stick? May 27 13:49:22 is there any MeeGo1.0 live image available to run on virtual box ? May 27 13:49:25 markuman: try usb-imagewriter, that's how i got it working May 27 13:49:59 Vali: i think virtualbox has a tool to convert the img to vdi May 27 13:50:32 Vali: I just tried, and it seemed to go through the install process but doesn't seem to boot properly after that May 27 13:50:39 is it will work on general x86 pc ? May 27 13:50:44 Vali: 35675 Apr 01 14:21:49 VBoxManage convertdd May 27 13:50:47 Vali: no idea May 27 13:51:06 how to run .vdi file May 27 13:51:11 it may need a new kernel and a few other packages replaced May 27 13:51:21 Vali: you make a new virtual machine and set the .vdi file as the hard drive May 27 13:51:31 ok May 27 13:51:31 TenPhil: usb-imagewriter? is it a tool of meego? May 27 13:51:40 i will try now..:) thanks May 27 13:51:41 CosmoHill: or just mount the .img as your CD-ROM image May 27 13:51:50 Vali: I meant that for you May 27 13:51:58 ok May 27 13:52:22 I'm on Vbox 3.1.6 let me know how it goes for you May 27 13:52:42 no, I run it in ubuntu, but it can be used to write the image to a usb, worked fine May 27 13:53:17 Vali: http://mg.pov.lt/meego-irclog/%23meego.2010-04-01.log.html#t2010-04-01T16:21:01 May 27 13:53:21 Vali: no May 27 13:53:21 TenPhil: yeah, i did it with dd, i guess it's still the same. but this is not an correct installation May 27 13:53:25 there's no way to run meego in vbox May 27 13:53:27 sorry. May 27 13:53:36 meego does not run in virtual machines. May 27 13:53:51 :( May 27 13:53:54 it needs good 3D graphics, and no virtual machine provides that May 27 13:53:57 (currently) May 27 13:55:00 arjan, it has been run in VB. May 27 13:55:26 SJVN did it apparently May 27 13:55:49 means it will not run or running slowely ? May 27 13:56:23 prooobably the latter May 27 13:56:35 slowly most likely, it was quite fast and responsive when I ran it from usb May 27 13:57:16 I've had meego 0.1 run in virtualbox but that is cli May 27 13:58:36 CosmoHill: cli's are the best ever May 27 13:58:49 meego runs bash FAST :=_ May 27 13:58:52 CosmoHill: Why did we have to move out of DOS/DesqView May 27 13:59:00 ? May 27 13:59:08 I liked it so much running my BBS software May 27 13:59:14 anyone as old as me here? May 27 13:59:14 :) May 27 13:59:18 you've love what my server looks like May 27 13:59:26 CosmoHill: screenshot and paste May 27 13:59:33 all you need is a serial cable... May 27 13:59:40 CosmoHill: hehe that's great. May 27 13:59:53 (it does have ssh too but serial is my backup) May 27 14:07:33 heya May 27 14:07:59 is there any non-atom/arm "demo" or live-iso available? May 27 14:08:21 i'm really having a hard time deciding between android and again maemo/meego May 27 14:08:45 meego and android are wildly different May 27 14:09:46 i know. May 27 14:10:13 there aren't any live-isos that will run on non-Atom chips, I don't know of any non-atom chips that support all the instructions May 27 14:10:13 i have a 810 with diablo next to my thinkpad May 27 14:10:39 microlith: all core2 and later intel chips also run meego (as long as you have supported instructions) May 27 14:10:42 and my thinkpad already virtualizes a live android-iso. May 27 14:11:21 s/istructions/graphics/ May 27 14:11:37 * arjan runs meego just fine on my core2 laptop and mt core i7 machines May 27 14:11:45 of course they'll run fine on an i7 May 27 14:11:56 how old is the core2? May 27 14:12:28 core2 got released in 2006 May 27 14:12:38 mine is a bit newer than that ;-) May 27 14:13:00 actually one of my core2's is from 2006 I think May 27 14:13:06 well you put the qualifier "as long as you have supported instructions" in there May 27 14:13:08 it was one of the first laptops with core2 May 27 14:13:16 I meant graphics, not instructions May 27 14:13:20 ah May 27 14:13:20 sorry too early in the day May 27 14:13:24 core 2 was Q3 or Q4 or 2006? May 27 14:13:25 yeah understandable May 27 14:13:40 CosmoHill: I thought it was q2 May 27 14:13:44 but not sure anymore May 27 14:13:46 loooong time ago May 27 14:14:00 Macs came out with Core 1 in Q12006 May 27 14:14:08 arjan: did you do anything special or download a special iso? May 27 14:14:09 3 months after I got my powerpc mac >.< May 27 14:14:35 however my mac still works, i'm on it now :) May 27 14:15:06 riot: no May 27 14:15:12 just standard images May 27 14:15:21 only thing is my core i7's don't have reasonable graphics May 27 14:15:27 so I tend to run those in text mode May 27 14:15:56 (can you believe that the 3d chip (some matrox thing) is slower than software rendering on that guy) May 27 14:19:11 hmhmm.. there is a strange mentality all over the website. It talks about "open" but at the same time about "we", "us" in a strangely excluding manner... all those "steering groups".. hmhm. Doesn't feel like opensource at all. May 27 14:21:22 ok, opensource-contribute May 27 14:21:27 even the term "steering group"... annoys the hell out of me... May 27 14:25:37 riot, yeah. . . . May 27 14:26:57 well, its probably just terminology, i suppose. Other big oss-projects have benevolent dictators et al... May 27 14:28:13 Still, i'm used to being able to install new (usually debian ;) updates to my old machines. So pulling of a "No-Maemo5-for-your-n810-or-older" again would seriously piss me off. May 27 14:29:40 the hard part of getting a distro running on such an older machine tends to be the hw support May 27 14:29:49 *especially* ARM hardware May 27 14:29:53 riot, nokia's business is selling devices… they have a long tradition of not wanting users to upgrade their old devices, but buy new ones… this open source stuff has them learning new habits, i hope ;) May 27 14:30:04 if someone who knows what he's doing can contribute that, I don't see a reason fundamentally why meego wouldn't run on n810 May 27 14:30:11 nedrichards, ok playing with the toolbar settings means i can get things to work pretty well on the eepc701 May 27 14:30:15 but it's not for the faint of heart... see what thiago said ;) May 27 14:30:28 my undestanding is that there's a community effort to do just that arjan May 27 14:30:31 there is already a project for n810 May 27 14:30:34 excellent May 27 14:30:37 http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N8x0 May 27 14:30:49 FunkyPenguin: awesome! glad it works May 27 14:30:52 arjan, n810 is a rocking device, but to get uber performance you have to be slimline and nimble May 27 14:30:57 I'd love my N800 to actually boot up May 27 14:30:58 I thought it might with the flexible May 27 14:31:02 Stskeeps is the real guy to poke at the moment, hang out in #meego-arm too May 27 14:31:06 but of course those same things help later devices by giving back battery and time May 27 14:31:08 otherwise, it's just decoration on my desk May 27 14:31:10 I've just tried meego, it looks really nice May 27 14:31:20 though, wans't meego suppose to use qt? May 27 14:31:25 jusliukk: exactly what i think, too, yes. They can't piss of their users - esp. not developers - it doesn't compute. May 27 14:31:30 seems like most apps are gtk May 27 14:31:31 only complaint is that hbons or jimmac didnt do a Meegofied Chrome icon May 27 14:31:36 nacho: "do what I say, not what I do" May 27 14:31:37 nacho: meego uses qt for all the applications May 27 14:31:55 and I'm hoping some of the core UI panels will be rewritten in Qt as well... May 27 14:32:11 or at least the meego touch stuff that's a layer on top of qt May 27 14:32:34 arjan: whenever you get any hard data on qt gl performance on intel video cards, let me know May 27 14:32:45 our Atom boards haven't arrived yet May 27 14:32:55 who came up with the batcrazy (but somehow cool ;) idea of putting chrome inside??? May 27 14:32:56 arjan, but i.e: banshee, gedit etc are gtk May 27 14:33:45 riot: chrome/chromium is a much nicer browser than firefox May 27 14:33:52 and it's webkit May 27 14:34:08 why not funding midori? May 27 14:34:08 I feel bad for the firefox guys; but they've been overrun by chrome/chromium by quite a lot May 27 14:34:35 arjan, who is the best person to speak to about ACPI support? May 27 14:34:53 for some reason the new kernel doesnt seem to support the eeePC 701 properly May 27 14:35:21 arjan: for embedded devices - i'm totally sure. On my debian boxes - NO way. May 27 14:35:28 FunkyPenguin: 701 is the preatom one right? May 27 14:35:37 FunkyPenguin: seriously surprised that that one works May 27 14:35:49 (chromium looks like gtk+ for me, too) May 27 14:35:59 Corsac: that's a theming thing mostly May 27 14:36:09 It's too bad too, since Google is eeeviiiil May 27 14:36:16 riot: even on a core2 or other heavy laptop, chrome/chromium beats firefox HARD May 27 14:36:16 arjan: I mean it *is* gtk+ :) May 27 14:36:46 Core 2 is "heavy" now? May 27 14:37:18 can900: compared to a small atom it is ;) May 27 14:37:38 arjan, yup, celeron based. everything works fine apart from battery status May 27 14:37:50 i seemingly have no battery according to the applet May 27 14:38:13 I have that on a samsung N220 as well, actually May 27 14:38:14 yet afaik all the details are upstream in the kernel May 27 14:38:17 "no battery" May 27 14:38:26 * GAN900 wishes for an OMAP4 netbook. May 27 14:38:26 * w00t_ has a note to look into bugs.m.c later May 27 14:38:42 FunkyPenguin: MeeGo is compiled to use SSE2 math which I think isn't supported. last time I tried on a 701 it wouldn't even boot May 27 14:38:42 Atom sucks juice like a fullsize May 27 14:38:52 (although that was a long time ago) May 27 14:38:53 and has nearly the performance of an ARM. May 27 14:39:03 bpeel, im running it now on my 701 ;) May 27 14:39:08 for the kids here, this is what desqview was :) May 27 14:39:18 managed to run everything since 2.0 May 27 14:39:22 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DESQview May 27 14:40:02 arjan: speedwise, maybe. But speed isn't everything May 27 14:40:34 * FunkyPenguin may have been premature, running from media works fine, but looks like there is an issue installing the bootloader May 27 14:40:50 FunkyPenguin: it exists for moblin May 27 14:41:08 jimmac, but not meego? May 27 14:41:54 FunkyPenguin: http://repo.or.cz/w/moblin-icon-theme.git/blob/one-size:/moblin/48x48/app-overrides/chromium.png << suse moblin May 27 14:42:36 How does one activate a Broadcome BCM 4312 WiFi card? May 27 14:42:47 ScatterBrain: you go to slains website ;) May 27 14:44:06 jimmac, ah ok so i have it in obs already May 27 14:44:25 arjan: slains???? sorry MeeGo noob. May 27 14:44:36 FunkyPenguin: very likely May 27 14:44:50 slaine on this channel has a webpage for it May 27 14:45:19 arjan: slaine: URL?? May 27 14:46:27 nvm found it - thank you google. May 27 14:46:33 oh and on the nostalgic hour of the channel, one must not forget http://toastytech.com/guis/dvx.html May 27 14:46:46 FunkyPenguin: sadly, the whole point of using Chrome is the branding and not touching it, so we take their icon May 27 14:47:14 nedrichards, yeah but it make the whole yummy loo May 27 14:47:17 oops May 27 14:47:45 nedrichards, what i meant to say was - it breaks the whole yummy look though May 27 14:48:08 truth May 27 14:50:09 bugger, bootloader fails to install :( May 27 14:51:20 FunkyPenguin: it can be done by hand May 27 14:51:37 you might need to boot another livecd and install the boot loader May 27 14:52:20 * FunkyPenguin retries May 27 14:57:59 ScatterBrain: http://slaine.org/_slaine/Meego_1.0_Wifi.html May 27 15:03:01 slaine: Thanks! May 27 15:04:35 CosmoHill, have you got any docs on that? May 27 15:09:14 So now that I know that MeeGo uses yum, I'm assuming that the core was based on Fedora/Red Hat. Is that right? May 27 15:09:47 ScatterBrain: No May 27 15:10:00 God, not this discussion again May 27 15:10:25 I'm sorry. I'm a meego noob and just trying to find out more about it. May 27 15:10:55 ScatterBrain: no problem. I've been listening to this for over a year since Moblin2 came out. May 27 15:11:52 So is there a "history" page that I can read or something? May 27 15:12:10 It's not based on Fedora, in the same way that OpenSuse usn't based on Fedora. Both use rpms. Yum And Zypper are available on MeeGo. May 27 15:12:33 ScatterBrain: well, it's only a few months old, so we're making history now :) May 27 15:12:57 A wiki page stating that Moblin is NOT Fedora, is not based on fedora etc., might be a good idea May 27 15:13:37 I couldn't count the times I've seem people come into #moblin complaining that their moblin install was messed up because they added some Fedora packages and borked their packages May 27 15:13:42 I know that Moblin and one other project merged to become meego, but that's it. May 27 15:14:00 Maemo is the other project May 27 15:14:45 huh May 27 15:16:49 FunkyPenguin: docs for what? May 27 15:18:07 Hello All May 27 15:20:01 I installed MeeGo on my Dell Inspiron mini 1012 last night. It is on the list of supported netbooks May 27 15:20:11 I love the interface May 27 15:20:14 its awesome! May 27 15:20:25 hi there May 27 15:20:32 hi May 27 15:20:33 hello.. got some questions about MeeGo.. 1) is there a (or rather what is the preferred) way to connect to wireless networks with IEEE 802.1X authentication (it doesn't seem to be supported out of the box.. and manually editing wpa_supplicant.conf first comes to mind) 2) where is grub.conf? or where can I edit the boot parameters May 27 15:20:33 I think once I get the wifi working, this little netbook (Dell Mini9) will be my main machine. May 27 15:20:44 Mainly because of the interface and quick boots. May 27 15:20:54 ScatterBrain: that's what I use May 27 15:21:01 the guide should help May 27 15:21:09 if you're stuck, drop me an email May 27 15:21:11 Yeah I can't get the wifi working either May 27 15:21:12 can u indicate me how to install meego with othetr OS ? May 27 15:21:26 slaine: I'm half-way through the guide right now. May 27 15:21:37 slaine: thanks for the help offer. ;-) May 27 15:21:40 where is this guide? May 27 15:21:49 slaine: you seem well placed to write the wiki page about "MeeGo is not Fedora etc." ;) May 27 15:21:57 townxelliot: lol May 27 15:22:08 slaine: then when it crops up again you can just paste a link May 27 15:22:10 yes liks the guide please May 27 15:22:11 anyone here who knows if ConnMan or MeeGo in general fnially has VPN capabilities ? (Netbook Atom edition) May 27 15:22:38 hey DawnFoster May 27 15:22:46 nobody installa it with other OS ? May 27 15:22:48 hey CosmoHill May 27 15:22:51 can't get it to work on my laptop or mum's PC :( May 27 15:23:29 (hard to make a rpm) May 27 15:23:37 it's not May 27 15:23:41 it's hard to make a good one :p May 27 15:23:44 uhm, if anyone was referring to me with "the guide" advice.. and if "the guide" is help.meego.com I can assure you there is absolutely nothing helpful there.. could someone at least point me to the grub.conf file as it's not in the usual place (/boot/grub/) and I think wpa_supplicant should take care of the wifi May 27 15:23:48 it works from USB but I would like to innstall it, can I do it mantaining the old OS ? May 27 15:23:51 * trixtur searches the forum for help on wifi issues May 27 15:23:55 everytime I install one of my RPMs something breaks May 27 15:24:13 bummer. do they have Atom processors? May 27 15:24:20 nope May 27 15:24:31 they do have SSSE3 tho May 27 15:24:36 CosmoHill, for messing around with the bootloader May 27 15:24:36 AMD ? May 27 15:24:41 CosmoHill, i try to make ntfs-3g rpm and gstreamer (it's remember me moblin) May 27 15:25:02 ah, the 1.0 netbook builds still only support a limited number of configs May 27 15:25:13 slaine: Intel T5730 (i think) and Intel Q9300 May 27 15:25:15 until people start to build it out for other platforms May 27 15:25:34 This give you a better idea of the types of systems it works on http://meego.com/devices/netbook/supported-hardware-platforms May 27 15:26:03 eepc s101 works great mms ssd May 27 15:26:05 what do you do if your device is a supported platform but the wireless doesn't work? May 27 15:26:16 :( May 27 15:26:43 it works from USB but I would like to innstall it, can I do it mantaining the old OS ? May 27 15:26:50 trixtur: can you post something to the meego-dev mailing list or to bugs.meego.com with more details about exactly what doesn't work? May 27 15:27:22 DawnFoster can you help me please ? May 27 15:27:35 hey arjan May 27 15:28:05 DawnFoster: I'd love to... May 27 15:28:07 I womt to install it in my netbook but I do not want to loose my XP and Ubuntu OS May 27 15:28:22 davide: do you have a spare partition? May 27 15:28:50 no I am a beginner, so I have to create it ? May 27 15:29:00 davide: I've only done clean intstalls - I'm not a good person to talk about installing it in a dual boot environment May 27 15:29:01 hmm May 27 15:29:13 davide: you can all the time install it on a different partition with no bootloader and manually set it May 27 15:29:14 davide you can test in live (usb/cd) or choose partitions and file format (brtfs/extfs..) May 27 15:29:29 manually set the bootloader May 27 15:29:40 thanks to all May 27 15:29:47 if you use grub you can press "c" to enter command line mode May 27 15:29:59 this is good if the distro isn't in the boot loader options May 27 15:30:19 DawnFoster: do you know if I need to do some kind of modprobe on the wifi device to get it to run? May 27 15:30:26 arjan: don't you have meego running on your mbp? May 27 15:30:45 trixtur: have you got your wifi working on other distros? May 27 15:31:10 CosmoHill: This is the first time I've installed a Linux based OS on that machine May 27 15:31:20 hmm May 27 15:31:29 I originally bought it for my wife for school, but she is done with school now so its mine May 27 15:31:33 it was running windows 7 May 27 15:31:44 I'm guessing you don't have a ubuntu disc about May 27 15:32:07 I bought the inspiron mini 1012 specifically because I knew they were supposed to run MeeGo May 27 15:32:26 can you give me your wifi card model? May 27 15:32:39 so what sort of user experience is there currently for N900 ? May 27 15:32:42 Atheros works fine May 27 15:32:52 DawnFoster: "middleware layer" = ? May 27 15:32:58 CosmoHill: um...are there different models for the same device? May 27 15:33:03 no idea May 27 15:33:12 open the terminal and type "lspci" May 27 15:33:17 then pastebin the output May 27 15:33:31 If not I'd assume it is the Deel Wireless 1397 802.11g Half Mini-card May 27 15:33:39 DawnFoster: It's great to see MeeGo 1.0 release yesterday. And I am looking forward to the MeeGo SDK. Any estimation? May 27 15:33:52 CosmoHill: thanks, I'll give that a try May 27 15:36:33 probably the most stupid question to ask, but how do I halt the computer without using a terminal? May 27 15:36:44 hmm May 27 15:36:46 CosmoHill: http://pastebin.com/7Sp5ZhSs May 27 15:37:38 nacho: press the power button on your device? May 27 15:37:53 trixtur: you have a Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 May 27 15:38:27 mmm, right! though, I was expecting something like ubuntu May 27 15:38:29 Damn May 27 15:38:45 CosmoHill: Broadcom is a pain in the ass May 27 15:38:46 trixtur: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/index.php?title=Broadcom_43xx&redirect=no May 27 15:38:49 this may help you May 27 15:38:59 hi nacho: have you installed it with ubuntu ? May 27 15:39:05 hjsm: the sdk is based on qt. details are here: http://meego.com/developers/meego-api May 27 15:40:14 nacho: hit the power button! May 27 15:40:23 davide, I removed the ubuntu I had to install it May 27 15:40:43 how else would you turn a device off than with the power button ;-) May 27 15:41:26 maybe we should make the shift key act like the space bar May 27 15:41:36 and then tell people to not use the space bar to get a space in their text ;-) May 27 15:41:38 Thank you nacho May 27 15:41:43 I tell you the more I use this netbook the more I'm impressed with the power of the ATOM. May 27 15:42:31 the user experience in meego is really fine May 27 15:43:36 DawnFoster: I thought MeeGo SDK will be something like Nokia Qt SDK, you can download the pacakge, install and create your MeeGo application. I didn't find that info from your link. (I know Qt Creator part. I am looking for a complete package for MeeGo SDK) May 27 15:45:05 MeeGo is 32 bit right? May 27 15:45:14 trixtur: yes May 27 15:45:31 I hope to investigate at least running a 64 bit kernel soon May 27 15:45:36 but that's research for a next version May 27 15:47:44 thank you slaine! the wifi is now working! May 27 15:48:39 the bootloader fails to install regardless of where i choose to install it :( May 27 15:51:46 hjsm: it looks like we have more info on the wiki about building the dev env using the sdk: http://wiki.meego.com/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Linux May 27 15:55:42 There is no make inside of MeeGo? May 27 15:55:47 what a pain May 27 15:55:59 DawnFoster: I am pretty familiar with this chroot development since Moblin. Is this mean MeeGo SDK is still based on mic-chroot? I thought MADDE and QtSDK are invloved for MeeGo SDK. May 27 15:57:02 isn't that url closer to a platform sdk or something? :P May 27 15:57:09 yup May 27 15:57:25 but not sure. May 27 15:57:35 Ok, I setup two appointments for today - they show up in "myZone" like I'd expect, but they're showing up 6 hours late... May 27 15:57:59 trixtur: the default image does not have software development stuff installed May 27 15:58:05 meaning I made the appointment for 2:00pm, and the appointment is set for "18:00" or 6:00pm. May 27 15:58:08 trixtur: yum groupinstall "Development Tools" May 27 15:58:09 How do I fix that? May 27 15:58:21 How can I change the keybord from american to italian ? May 27 15:58:35 davide: system-config-keyboard? there's also a settings thing May 27 15:58:36 there is no menu for this May 27 15:58:45 arjan: thanks May 27 15:58:57 arjan thank's May 27 15:59:22 r u sure ? May 27 15:59:35 I did not find it... May 27 16:00:40 davide: it might be part of the language dialog May 27 16:01:02 may be, I'll try May 27 16:01:03 arjan: can I use yum to install broadcom drivers? May 27 16:01:12 hmm May 27 16:01:18 only if someone has a yum repo for it May 27 16:01:21 dunno if someone has May 27 16:01:26 how are we with metrics going to be seperating user support and development on mailing list activity? May 27 16:01:38 i mean, we're seeing support requests on meego-dev :) May 27 16:03:16 Stskeeps: just need to politely but insistently point people to the other list May 27 16:03:19 and NOT answer them May 27 16:03:29 because once they get answers on -dev there's no stopping May 27 16:03:35 (and do answer them on the non-dev list of course) May 27 16:03:52 fedora had a long history of issues with this until they became a lot more firm on enforcing the split May 27 16:04:02 (politely enforcing of course) May 27 16:04:45 (what other list?) May 27 16:05:35 i see dev, community, l10n and sdk.. i guess we mean the forums? May 27 16:06:37 I'm pretty sure there's also a "meego" list May 27 16:06:46 * w00t_ knows of no such list May 27 16:07:06 http://meego.com/community/mailing-lists doesn't list one at least May 27 16:23:52 the user questions can be directed to the forums May 27 16:24:03 now, we need to get the right people monitoring the forums :) May 27 16:24:36 alright May 27 16:24:47 would be nice to have user mailing list as well May 27 16:25:36 does the qt nokia sdk beta work on meego - for cross dev direct to n900? May 27 16:25:41 We made the decision to separate the user requests and put those in the forum (users tend to be more comfortable with forums) while leaving all of the developer stuff on the mailing list May 27 16:26:01 I would like to avoid having the user stuff in 2 places where it is harder to track May 27 16:26:24 DawnFoster, with users, just wait till they start setting up their own communication methods May 27 16:26:26 having it all on the forums also makes it easier to search for questions you know have been answered May 27 16:26:34 its like herding cats, the community will sprout up where you dont expect it May 27 16:26:40 always May 27 16:26:46 hearding cats? May 27 16:26:59 lcuk: you have to much spare time May 27 16:27:01 but I only want one official place for users to submit questions May 27 16:27:03 and cats May 27 16:27:12 they can create as many other channels as they want :) May 27 16:27:49 #megoo May 27 16:27:50 hehe May 27 16:28:38 CosmoHill, whats spare time? i spent 20 hours yesterday hand holding users through updates May 27 16:29:20 eep May 27 16:29:57 cai I installa VLC on meego ? May 27 16:30:03 can May 27 16:42:42 arjan: thanks for getting me on the right track. I fixed the wifi issues May 27 16:43:56 #magoo? :P May 27 16:48:46 The appointments widget on the "Myzone" tab is off by 6 hours. How can I fix that? May 27 16:53:23 ScatterBrain: move to the UK so that you live in UTC time ? May 27 16:53:26 ;=) May 27 16:53:39 arjan: funny... :) May 27 16:53:53 the myzone developers do live in the UK May 27 16:53:58 * arjan wonders if a bug snuck in that way :) May 27 16:54:26 we're on BST so +1 at the moment... May 27 16:54:42 did you notice them all going home early though? May 27 17:04:16 hi guys is it possible to boot n900 meego off a microsd? May 27 17:04:30 yes, in fact, it's only way May 27 17:04:48 Syskeeps: does it require flashing the device? May 27 17:05:14 Stskeeps: does it require flashing the device? May 27 17:05:19 oops May 27 17:05:31 no May 27 17:05:40 you can write it to sd and then load the kernel with flasher May 27 17:05:48 any docs? May 27 17:05:53 wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900 May 27 17:06:07 odd question, anyone who tried out the open N900 image here? May 27 17:06:17 aren't you getting random reboots? May 27 17:06:20 thx, didnt find that link May 27 17:08:15 * CosmoHill takes dazo_afk's unguarded keyboard May 27 17:11:58 hjsm: it looks like the SDK image hadn't been uploaded yet when I was talking to you earlier. Hopefully, this is what you needed: http://meego.com/developers/getting-started May 27 17:13:09 it's a tarball with the sdk May 27 17:16:08 DawnFoster: btw, since we now have proposal that actually got approved.. should we move them somewhere else? May 27 17:16:20 it's not so much proposal anymore :) May 27 17:17:15 yes we should move them May 27 17:17:29 not sure exactly how it should be organized. May 27 17:17:33 :nod: just noticed May 27 17:18:31 ugh, I thought someone was going to reorganize the wiki home page before the 1.0 launch - looks like it never happened. May 27 17:18:43 the proposals don't belong on the home page of the wiki anyway May 27 17:19:50 a lot can be done with wiki homepage at least -i'm still amazed to what they did with for example http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer May 27 17:20:08 (looks a bit screwed up now cos of adding 'yes, we're a dead project, stop bothering us' text) May 27 17:20:59 "our hibernating goals" May 27 17:21:03 so all the upcoming feature in http://meego.com/developers/meego-api are bsically developed closed source yes? May 27 17:21:27 qt's not May 27 17:21:33 qt mobility neither, i believe May 27 17:21:45 Stskeeps: right, "MeeGo UI Framework" May 27 17:21:51 Stskeeps: is what I'm curious about. May 27 17:22:10 i'm more curious it's called like that May 27 17:22:12 * sivang is highly interested in the platform development and polish May 27 17:22:56 Stskeeps: right, I mean, just take the Hildon stuff and port it to Qt ? ;-) May 27 17:23:01 anyway gotta run May 27 17:23:01 hopefully not May 27 17:23:02 :P May 27 17:23:05 Stskeeps: hehe May 27 17:23:07 right May 27 17:24:33 Stskeeps: I bounces the wiki homepage request over to Quim. It's part of this plan to update the website: http://wiki.meego.com/Community_Office/Meego.com/May_2010_release_website_update May 27 17:24:37 bounced May 27 17:24:38 :nod: May 27 17:25:04 we just need to figure out what was updated and make sure that someone is on the hook for the rest May 27 17:47:08 anybody got the image working in a vm? May 27 17:49:02 nope May 27 17:49:26 arjan: say's it can't be done due to the current lack of 3D graphics support May 27 17:51:01 you can get that with virtualbox and the guestextension May 27 17:51:37 isn't that part closed source and non-redistributable though? May 27 17:52:02 hmm i might be mistaken May 27 17:52:53 * lcuk cries at so much talk of closed source and distribution problems and eulas and crud standing in the way of open accessible distro May 27 18:21:27 lcuk: at least we have the chromium stuff on kernel.org and other mirrors too May 27 18:22:16 sure arjan but to need to explain the difference is bad in itself May 27 18:22:20 just adds to confusion May 27 18:23:29 no argument May 27 18:23:40 hi everyone....just downloaded and installed meego on my 1000H and I keep loosing my wireless connection every 5 or 10 minutes, I wanna know if it's a problem with my netbook or may AP... May 27 18:23:43 especially since chromium and chrome are basically fromt he same source code May 27 18:24:02 Zapp: could also be your wifi driver... we've had some issues with some drivers like that May 27 18:24:16 we also have some guys that have been able to fix a few drivers May 27 18:24:25 so it'd be interesting to get a bugzilla about this with details ;) May 27 18:24:50 ok...I'll try to get a report May 27 18:26:46 actually nothing crashes so...how do I get get a bugzilla...anyway it is suposed to be plain linux so I should be able to use a linux driver...it's a Ralink RT2860...if anyone knows of a driver that works I'd be really thankful May 27 18:28:18 we had to fix that guy ina few places May 27 18:28:21 maybe not enough :) May 27 18:34:11 it looks like it is already using the same module I use on my Debian.... May 27 18:34:23 those who have fixed it, what did you exactly do? May 27 18:50:08 so May 27 18:50:15 how does one get started developing for meego? May 27 18:51:25 Don't see any option for keymaps, suppose I'll have to use xmodmap? May 27 18:54:30 solarion: this is the best place to start for developing apps: http://meego.com/developers/getting-started May 27 18:59:16 DawnFoster: is all of my maemo knowledge lost, or are they pretty compatible? May 27 19:00:26 if you did qt before, then no May 27 19:00:37 * solarion has done gtk+ primarily May 27 19:00:53 not opposed to qt per se; just not had a need to learn it May 27 19:00:54 well, there's still gtk+ but it is not hildon May 27 19:01:05 and not recommended for development, i guess May 27 19:01:17 qt has all the special meegoey goodness? May 27 19:06:48 WHEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeee. May 27 19:06:58 atleast according to newspaper I've got fans. May 27 19:07:02 evening Myrtti May 27 19:07:12 * pupnik waves a fan at Myrtti May 27 19:07:12 perhaps I should start a Facebook page people can become fans of May 27 19:07:41 do a "fan dance" for it May 27 19:10:09 can you change the clock from 24 hour to 12 time? May 27 19:11:44 IS the meego v1.0 release for the N900 a fiasco image? Or just a raw fs? May 27 19:12:48 it's a raw fs for flashing to a mmc and a kernel May 27 19:13:20 we don't have system in NAND anymore, except for a initrd at times or kernel May 27 19:13:23 Ah, okay, so if I want to run it with qemu, I need the kernel and the image? May 27 19:13:48 right, and a updated qemu as it's now 2.6.33 May 27 19:14:04 Stskeeps: I've been compiling qemu for N900 support from the git repo May 27 19:15:10 test with qflasher then i guess May 27 19:15:25 okily dokily, thanks. May 27 19:28:24 How does one install moblin apps on Meego, or is it not possible? May 27 19:54:03 is meego out and in use? May 27 19:56:44 yes maemouser, version 1.0 was released yesterday. May 27 19:57:13 can we use it on N900 ? May 27 19:57:24 officially ? May 27 19:58:01 I don't know anything other than it being released. (noob meego user here) May 27 19:58:08 same here hehe :) May 27 19:58:45 what process keeps "myzone" in sync? May 27 19:59:05 Because it appears to not be communicating with with Evolution anymore. May 27 20:06:40 sandstorm: I doubt the GUI is ready for N900 ... but if you want a basic text based terminal ... meego is perfect :-P May 27 20:06:48 Keep in mind that the meego 1.0 release from yesterday is for netbooks. May 27 20:07:15 oh I see, so maybe there will be a N900 release one time hopefully May 27 20:07:26 there will be May 27 20:07:27 sandstorm: seriously, I read somewhere today that the "tablet" type (touch screen) stuff will come in MeeGo 1.1 ... which I'd expect N900 will depend on May 27 20:07:32 wait a bit longer. May 27 20:07:33 there will be handset versions shortly May 27 20:07:42 I am just enthusiastic about intels and nokias collaboration in MeeGo on N900 May 27 20:08:02 sure thing, I can wait for the right time May 27 20:08:57 btw, what is the core of MeeGo, is it a linux kernel ? May 27 20:09:04 or something completely new? May 27 20:10:12 sandstorm - meego uses a lot of standard open source components, including the linux kernel May 27 20:10:45 You get many of the details here: http://meego.com/developers/meego-architecture May 27 20:10:45 great May 27 20:10:52 thanks May 27 20:28:47 hi, i cant download the meego img, do we have a torrent link? May 27 20:35:31 empathy crash May 27 20:36:31 Folks, love the interface. Love the intention. But 1.0 and my netbook simply aren't getting along. May 27 20:37:01 ScatterBrain, how come? May 27 20:38:10 Well, the wifi keeps dropping (BCM 4312), Suspend actually locks the machine, The touchpad keeps freezing up, and the "Myzone" page is either 6 hours late or stops working altogether. May 27 20:38:52 I am a noob and I can blame myself for a lot of things, but all of those can't be me. May 27 20:42:50 hi May 27 20:42:56 how r u May 27 20:43:07 has anyone managed to get the netbook images working in virtualbox? May 27 20:43:32 a qs, what is the best qualified out-of-thebox netbook or labtop that is supported by meego fully May 27 20:44:15 newman: http://meego.com/devices/netbook/supported-hardware-platforms May 27 20:44:24 cuz i ana get a new one and dont want to be dissappointed May 27 20:44:37 aha ok thanks ddint know about this list May 27 20:47:28 later all, time to go home.... May 27 20:52:33 i've downloaded a corrupt .img twice today from meego.com, im looking for officially supported torrent? May 27 20:53:32 The lack of shortcuts in Meego is making me mad May 27 20:55:23 different paradigm May 27 20:55:43 why do you need them? May 27 21:00:59 does wine work on meego May 27 21:01:13 if you install it, it probably does May 27 21:01:16 but not on ARM May 27 21:02:19 it worths trying May 27 21:02:35 TSCHAKeee: they're so much faster than touchpad May 27 21:03:05 and alt tabbing is something you can't live without May 27 21:04:46 can someone explain to me how maemo joined moblin, all i see from meego is moblin itself May 27 21:05:48 um, i can alt-tab May 27 21:05:51 just fine May 27 21:05:59 or maybe moblin is the interface, maemo the app packaging May 27 21:06:16 You can? :o May 27 21:06:27 * TSCHAKeee takes a deeep breath. May 27 21:06:49 Without any modifications, just out of the box? May 27 21:06:51 newman: there are many different user experiences for MeeGo. May 27 21:07:00 newman: the Netbook UX is written by Intel May 27 21:07:07 newman: the Handset UX is written by Nokia May 27 21:07:24 aha May 27 21:07:24 newman: they both now run on the same basic OS core, Meego Core May 27 21:07:48 Zeikko: correct. May 27 21:07:54 well summarized May 27 21:07:59 TSCHAKeee: then you might also know how to shutdown this? May 27 21:08:15 bummer, anybody else? May 27 21:09:20 Anybody know how to shutdown meego? :P May 27 21:09:33 hit the power button ;) May 27 21:09:39 a dialog should come up asking if you want to shut down May 27 21:09:47 hah, true May 27 21:09:54 how about the media codecs stuff which are propietary.... May 27 21:10:21 * thiago_home always takes the battery out May 27 21:10:32 jausmus: the dialog appears but the OS doesn't shutdown May 27 21:10:41 hint: add some tape to the back so it's easier to pull it out :-) May 27 21:10:45 Zeikko: i was wondering how to turn it off some minutes ago May 27 21:11:07 btw my eeepc 901 powers off nicey May 27 21:11:38 i have eeepc 901 also May 27 21:11:42 the clutter UI is really nice May 27 21:11:44 newman: no proprietary in the open source image May 27 21:12:03 newman: you can add it on your own, if you want to, from whichever sources you find May 27 21:12:17 will the future versions keep this nice UI? May 27 21:12:25 well, end user will face the everlasting problem of linux then.. installing codecs May 27 21:12:48 unless the resellers add it May 27 21:13:01 Party! After accepting the shutdown dialog 15 times it started doing something May 27 21:13:41 newman: its more wide than just linux... apple and mac users know how codecs can be a pain. May 27 21:13:52 Now the yellow waving meego guy has been on the screen for quite long :P May 27 21:14:02 someone should write a guide for howto install these codecs like ubuntu doing May 27 21:14:59 Yellow meego is still standing :d May 27 21:15:44 last time I use RPMs mandriva was still called mandrake and just started to delay updates to non paying users May 27 21:17:21 Zeikko: does "shutdown -h now" work? May 27 21:17:58 thiago_home: are you assigned to work on meego currently? May 27 21:18:31 Grubbolo: it finally went to the "exit screen" but got stuck into there and i had to press the power button for 10 secs May 27 21:20:58 Zeikko: did you install it on the ssd? May 27 21:21:43 Zeikko: I'm still tunning off a sd-card May 27 21:22:10 Yeah i just installed it May 27 21:22:28 on the 4gb drive? May 27 21:24:52 Grubbolo: kinda May 27 21:25:17 Grubbolo: part of my work is to look into MeeGo and be the interface May 27 21:27:50 Of the two downloads, what browser does the one not marked "Google Chrome" use? May 27 21:28:49 thiago_home: are you working at the interface between intel and nokia then? Is the transition clutter->qt well accepted among the devs? May 27 21:29:55 I mean... is there any doubt about transitioning the GUI to qt? May 27 21:35:08 grishnav: one of the interfaces May 27 21:35:11 the interface to Qt May 27 21:35:31 Nokia isn't using Clutter, so I have no idea what devs think May 27 21:40:23 hi does someone have a wget'able link of the latest release ( chromium browser ) or a torrent? May 27 21:54:45 might this be a place to ask support questions, or should I head to the forums? May 27 21:55:22 ask your question and we'll tell you May 27 21:55:48 Sure. I have an EEE and the bluetooth panel icon doesn't give me an option to enable/disable it May 27 21:55:59 EEE 1000, anyway. May 27 21:56:25 I see where the on/off slider dealio should be, it's just not active May 27 22:01:08 repost: Of the two downloads, what browser does the one not marked "Google Chrome" use? May 27 22:01:30 h00k: try the forum. No one seemed to know the answer here. May 27 22:01:45 mogra: chromium May 27 22:02:47 thiago_home: yerp, already looking May 27 22:04:35 I herald you, my supreme master! Lead us into the light of your wisdom and power May 27 22:04:44 !botsnack May 27 22:04:56 infobot: botsnack May 27 22:04:56 :), RichiH May 27 22:06:09 anyway, can anyone give me the md5sum, sha1sum or anything of the meego 1.0 netbook version with chrome, please? May 27 22:08:49 nice no problem install on x61s May 27 22:09:48 pupnik: from how i understand things, i can not only install from the usb image, but run the image as a live image, as well? May 27 22:10:26 i havent heard of friends doing that May 27 22:10:35 some run in a VM May 27 22:10:39 anyone tested 1.0 on AA1 D-150 yet? I see 250 listed, and their hardware is similar. May 27 22:11:24 i like thinkpad x series more every day May 27 22:13:20 pupnik, mogra: could either of you md5sum the netbook iso with crome if you have it, please? my iso is still named .part and i took about two hours to download it so i am not keen on redoing that if i can help it May 27 22:13:44 I will have mine in about 15 minutes May 27 22:14:14 kk May 27 22:15:11 RichiH - you can use wget to continue a partial download, using the -c option May 27 22:17:31 jausmus: i am pretty sure it finished. also, the way the download is presented after acepting the eula does not exactly easy to get at the link (unless you just type it) May 27 22:22:14 I am hoping task management has been cleaned up. May 27 22:31:33 Richih: it's summing right now May 27 22:31:44 6a33f61264ecfd3b4d1b430e5b7b8f3a meego-netbook-ia32-1.0.0.20100524.1.img May 27 22:32:09 and yes, I got the Chrome Browser version May 27 22:33:44 bleh May 27 22:33:52 5a7d70a80da1550877598534b6d82162 meego-netbook-ia32-1.0.0.20100524.1.img.part May 27 22:34:00 :( May 27 22:34:19 does anyone have a link i can continue on? May 27 22:35:35 I checked the link, they are bound to a sessionid, it seems, and an expiration time. May 27 22:40:15 great, the link including session id is about a bazillion chars long and i can't copy it May 27 22:40:37 as an aside, if meego used chromium instead of chrome, there would be _no_ eula May 27 22:40:40 just a thought May 27 22:40:53 there's an image that does exactly that May 27 22:41:09 if you don't care about chrome proper, just use the chromium image May 27 22:41:32 my main problem is that this will set me back another two hours May 27 22:42:10 lol @ session ID May 27 22:42:28 "we want people to download this.... TWIcE!" May 27 22:42:47 jausmus: just to be sure, does the netbook version which does not say "chrome" come with chroium? May 27 22:42:55 or is that yet another image? May 27 22:43:10 yes, the "non-chrome" is a "with-chromium" image May 27 22:43:24 that should be stated more prominently May 27 22:44:03 hmm - agreed May 27 22:44:11 * RichiH would _never_ have thought about getting a eula-riddled image with chrome if he had known a proper browser came with the other image, as well May 27 22:44:24 s/about/of/ May 27 22:44:39 RichiH: use the chromium one May 27 22:46:55 shadeslayer_: yah, i am getting it as we speak May 27 22:47:21 btw does anyone have a grub entry for meego? like i want to boot the iso directly off my hd with grub 2 May 27 22:47:26 jausmus: can you do anything about how the second image is presented or do i need to poke someone else> May 27 22:47:27 ? May 27 22:47:40 I'm sending an e-mail right now ;) May 27 22:47:41 shadeslayer_: not possible (yet) May 27 22:47:55 RichiH: :( May 27 22:48:02 grub 2 can reportedly do this with lots of magic, but not reliably May 27 22:48:09 syslinux can do it, though May 27 22:48:19 so you _could_ chainload syslinux May 27 22:48:20 RichiH: btw i should dd the iso onto the usb right? May 27 22:48:25 yes May 27 22:48:29 RichiH: my thoughts precisely May 27 22:48:30 :P May 27 22:48:36 that did not work for me, but then my image is broken, so... May 27 22:49:26 RichiH: any particular byte size? May 27 22:49:33 ( for the dd command ) May 27 22:49:51 personally, i expect grub 2 proper to be able to load from within isos within the next 6 to 12 months May 27 22:49:55 aaaand sent May 27 22:50:15 shadeslayer_: i presume that most bytes (since 1970) are precisely 8 bit in size ;) May 27 22:50:37 if you mean block size, 64k has proven to be the all-round faast & robust value May 27 22:51:34 RichiH: yeah.. its been a long day :P May 27 22:53:11 RichiH: can we supply the kernel to grub2 for booting? May 27 22:54:00 RichiH: im getting the guys over from #grub to help May 27 22:55:03 RichiH: phcoder May 27 22:56:42 btw does meego support the normal T series Intel processors and nvidia graphics cards? May 27 22:56:54 ill be really surprised if it does :P May 27 22:57:33 RichiH: grub2 is able to load files from inside iso image for at least one year. May 27 22:58:45 phcoder: btw ill need to put the image in /boot to get it working right? May 27 22:59:02 s/working/booting May 27 23:00:19 but you can't chainload iso file, it would need BIOS hook which won't work with anything modern. May 27 23:23:33 hi guys... May 27 23:23:41 hi May 27 23:25:33 question about installation of meego 1.0 - perhaps u can help: The installation stucks when it comes to installing the bootloader... any ideas? I used default setup of partitions May 27 23:26:41 no error message Bozzy ? May 27 23:27:30 nope.. screen is also not frozen.. just says "installing bootloader" - very early stage of installation May 27 23:28:50 i havent seen that problem yet. perhaps a bug report is in order May 27 23:29:16 is there a possibility not to install a bootloader? May 27 23:29:28 ok. May 27 23:30:23 I thought there was, I don't remember :$ May 27 23:30:41 :) May 27 23:31:05 I just installed it today, anyway. Cool stuff. May 27 23:31:16 Cept bash is being silly. May 27 23:31:59 I add bash aliases to ~/.bashrc and it doesn't recognize them, also, I added it to check in ~/.bash_aliases too, and it wouldn't May 27 23:32:10 (closed, reopened terminal) May 27 23:32:55 hey meego users May 27 23:33:04 this may address your problem Bozzy http://www.mail-archive.com/meego-dev@meego.com/msg01189.html May 27 23:34:12 yea found this thread also May 27 23:34:34 i also tryied to manually set the partitions.. May 27 23:34:54 but thanks for your help. May 27 23:36:21 good luck Bozzy May 27 23:36:34 thx pupnik! May 27 23:48:37 Is there anything special with the bash included in MeeGo? May 27 23:49:07 phcoder: so can i actually boot "into" an iso? May 27 23:49:10 For instance, my aliases are not working as they should May 27 23:49:14 you mean short-bus "special"? May 27 23:49:19 phcoder: in any case: interesting :) May 27 23:49:31 pupnik: perhaps :) May 27 23:49:45 pupnik: 'different' in general, I guess. May 27 23:49:59 adding aliases to .profile or what May 27 23:50:14 or to .bashrc inder the # for aliases May 27 23:50:24 alias commandhere='this is an alias' May 27 23:50:30 RichiH: your question is imprecise and depending on what you mean it's either "yes" or "no". I can e.g. boot Ubuntu LiveCD stored in iso file. May 27 23:51:56 pupnik: even including this isn't working properly May 27 23:52:08 what happens if you add the alias to .profile and start a new shell May 27 23:52:34 hi? May 27 23:52:41 hi May 27 23:52:46 pupnik: http://pastebin.com/sgub6zGL May 27 23:52:59 pupnik: and then adding them to ~/.bash_aliases May 27 23:53:02 let me try .profile May 27 23:53:17 hi there, just a quickie... has anyone managed to boot meego as a 'livecd'? May 27 23:53:45 pupnik: no go there, either May 27 23:53:52 i tried using unetbootin to transfer the .img to a usb pen but got lots of errors May 27 23:53:54 ok now confused May 27 23:54:43 mattA, use dd or meego image writter May 27 23:54:46 pupnik: I've tried to add aliases to .bashrc, .bash_profile, and .bash_aliases, none of them seem to be responding May 27 23:54:57 pupnik: I've fired up a new shell, etc May 27 23:55:35 i would love an excuse to investigate that May 27 23:55:47 pupnik: I don't blame you for not :) May 27 23:55:57 low on time. let us know what it is May 27 23:56:06 will try. /me heads to forums May 27 23:56:29 @bef0rd, cheers mate.. didn't actually know there was a meego image writer, it's not on the website/wiki May 27 23:57:04 mattA, mic-image-writer http://wiki.meego.com/Image_Creation#Running_mic-image-writer May 27 23:57:47 doh! didn't notice it before, thanks again +1 May 27 23:58:03 mattA, no problem May 28 00:03:00 hey all May 28 00:03:09 okay... im trying to install this on my laptop....
