**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Oct 28 02:59:57 2010 Oct 28 04:01:59 Any women looking to share a hotel room at the MeeGo Conference in Dublin? Oct 28 06:15:08 DawnFoster: ping. Are you around? Oct 28 07:16:50 Morning all ! Oct 28 07:17:07 http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.1/handset/images/meego-handset-armv7l-n900/ <<<- is it real ? Oct 28 07:17:11 i:) Oct 28 07:17:52 oh snap Oct 28 07:17:54 it's brand new Oct 28 07:18:17 i'll find out after work if it's real Oct 28 07:18:30 :) Oct 28 07:41:30 back from vacation now, reading that Meego can be installed on N900, someone tested it? Oct 28 07:51:48 linuxcentos: i've tested one of the builds, 1.1.80.3.20101022.1 Oct 28 07:51:54 but 1.1 is in the release directory now Oct 28 07:52:13 so right now i'm writing the btrfs raw image to SD card through ssh at home. but i won't be able to flash the kernel image until after work Oct 28 07:52:18 because my n900 is at home Oct 28 07:52:33 the build i tested did not work well at all. Oct 28 07:52:47 got a black linux boot screen, had to shine a flashlight on it just to see the errors. Oct 28 07:53:10 i see Oct 28 07:55:58 nocturnal: you are using dd to write to sd card? Oct 28 07:58:53 linuxcentos: yes Oct 28 07:59:02 mm Oct 28 07:59:38 so when the fs is on sd card, what's next? Oct 28 07:59:43 btrfs Oct 28 07:59:48 oh Oct 28 07:59:49 mm Oct 28 08:00:01 well i'm forced to recompile my debian kernel with btrfs support just to see if it worked Oct 28 08:00:06 to be able to mount the file system from the sd card Oct 28 08:00:11 i guess i'll do this until i get home Oct 28 08:00:20 because i just got to work and someone in here on irc just told me about the 1.1 image Oct 28 08:00:31 so until i get home and can flash the n900 i can use the time to check the sd card Oct 28 08:00:32 oky Oct 28 08:00:35 just use fdisk -l? if partition table is ok, everything else probably works too Oct 28 08:01:04 you will have to install boot loader and kernel to phone's ROM? Oct 28 08:01:10 jarkkom: fdisk -l shows Linux as file system and it shows everything working fine. yet i've not managed to install meego as of yet using the builds so this time i feel like i want to actually see the file system. Oct 28 08:01:17 and if i'm to play with meego i might as well have btrfs support Oct 28 08:01:19 it won't hurt Oct 28 08:42:28 Any plans for a standard image file for the nokia N900 ? Oct 28 08:42:35 define standard image file Oct 28 08:42:56 One that we dont have to build via a kick start file Oct 28 08:43:06 uhm.. Oct 28 08:43:06 :P Oct 28 08:43:11 we have those? Oct 28 08:43:15 -raw and vmlinuz Oct 28 08:43:39 morning all Oct 28 08:45:49 stskeeps, I'm not sure what your answer was Oct 28 08:46:04 and a lack of sleep is not helping the situation Oct 28 08:46:15 let's talk later then :) Oct 28 08:46:16 morning Oct 28 08:46:47 Well unfortuanetly I posted that the N900 version was out and didn't look at the image format. Oct 28 08:46:56 it is out, and not just a .ks afaik Oct 28 08:47:33 .ks is there in case you ever want to recreate image or add to it Oct 28 08:50:33 it's out .. just gonna wait for the announcement and instructions >.< Oct 28 08:50:41 I'm missing something here. How would average user flash that then ? Oct 28 08:50:55 wondering if class 4 vs class 6 mircosd makes a big difference on my n900 for meego.. Oct 28 08:51:02 microsd* Oct 28 08:51:04 MeeGoExperts, with the n900 flashing instructions Oct 28 08:51:10 MeeGoExperts: OK, so, the person bunzip2 the mmc image and then write it to a microsd card Oct 28 08:51:34 then you grab flasher and load the vmlinuz Oct 28 08:52:22 so we still need to do it the old way? with the flasher and the N900 connected to the computer? not like the recent video? Oct 28 08:52:36 Jucato: we're still working on getting a nice easy solution for people doing it like that Oct 28 08:52:53 cool :) Oct 28 08:53:08 I just thought it was part of the PR 1.3 goodies :) Oct 28 08:53:33 Stskeeps: not just copie the kernel to / and kexec it? Oct 28 08:54:03 Jucato: long story short: our kernel has difficulties on warm boot like that Oct 28 08:54:19 the original idea was kexec but u-boot is obviously a much beter olution Oct 28 08:54:31 better solution Oct 28 08:54:43 Thanks guys. Was hoping for an easier end user method. Oct 28 08:55:02 Stskeeps: ah so until that "easy solution", the process is basically the same as in pre-PR 1.2? Oct 28 08:55:03 MeeGoExperts: it will be: install a package from extras-devel, that enables the u-boot Oct 28 08:55:08 er pre-PR 1.3 Oct 28 08:55:18 MeeGoExperts: uboot is the easier end-user solution I guess Oct 28 08:55:29 MeeGoExperts: then we'll be providing dualboot suitable 1.1 images and when they're popped in, it boots from sd Oct 28 08:57:13 Still downloading yet. Oct 28 08:58:43 So this will only boot via the SD card and not permanently flash the phone ? Oct 28 08:59:11 yes, we stick with non-destructive installs if you follow our instructions Oct 28 08:59:34 so http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/MMC and http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot ? Oct 28 08:59:42 /MMC, /Dual_Boot is outdated Oct 28 08:59:47 and just marked a such Oct 28 08:59:54 oohkay :) Oct 28 09:00:32 i'll probably wait for some kind of solution for that remove-sdcard-whenever-booting-to-maemo thing Oct 28 09:01:13 ideal would be not having to remove/re-insert the sd card every time. but beggars can't be choosers so I'll just wait :) Oct 28 09:01:24 Jucato: there'll be possibility to customize it Oct 28 09:01:39 Thanks guys. I PRESUMED it would be a "destructive install" …. Oct 28 09:02:02 MeeGoExperts: heh I presumed it would be magic brought about by PR 1.3 :D Oct 28 09:02:25 Stskeeps: cool. how about the possibility of simply using a partition of an SD card instead of overwriting the whole card? Oct 28 09:02:45 Jucato: if you know how to rsync stuff yourself.. Oct 28 09:02:56 Jucato: if you want to customize it, you get the pain to do it yoursf :P Oct 28 09:03:20 haha Oct 28 09:04:07 Stskeeps: what is the latest build you recommend then? the weekly build? Oct 28 09:04:10 1.1 Oct 28 09:04:10 :P Oct 28 09:04:13 so which is the link to the not-outdated (but obviously not yet updated for MeeGo 1.1) instructions? Oct 28 09:04:13 not 1.1.80 Oct 28 09:04:20 Jucato: /MMC is accurate Oct 28 09:04:24 oh didn't see that Oct 28 09:04:48 Stskeeps: ah ok. I misinterpreted that as /MMC and /Dual_Boot are both outdated :) Oct 28 09:05:44 Stskeeps: was looking at builds not releases... so what is the problem with "warm" booting the kernel then? Oct 28 09:05:55 chem|st: the problem is that mmc and display driver doesn't like re-entry Oct 28 09:06:10 ok so essentials ;) Oct 28 09:17:52 Stskeeps: for http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/MMC no need for u-boot yet right? then I download the *.raw.bz2 to dd to the SD card, then the *.vmlinuz to use with the flasher? Oct 28 09:18:23 Jucato: no need for uboot ,yeah Oct 28 09:22:56 tahanks :) Oct 28 09:23:00 oops one 'a' too many Oct 28 09:45:21 does the SD card need to be formatted to ext3 before dd? Oct 28 09:45:48 Jucato, no, you are overwriting everything with dd, the image you copy has its own filesystem Oct 28 09:46:00 cool. thanks :) Oct 28 09:46:06 now just waiting for the download to finish ... Oct 28 09:46:15 47 minutes ... Oct 28 09:54:29 has anyone the raw content as tar so I may just rsync it to the device (I hate repartitioning) Oct 28 09:56:17 can someone point me to the 1.1 release? Oct 28 09:56:59 http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.1/handset/images/meego-handset-armv7l-n900/ Oct 28 09:57:14 sjjg: ^^ Oct 28 09:57:50 http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.1/netbook/images/meego-netbook-ia32/ for netbook Oct 28 09:58:35 thanks guys :) Oct 28 10:05:37 when updating my meego sdk, should I use zypper or yum? Oct 28 10:15:54 boud: I suppose it is a matter of preference - but I like zypper. Oct 28 10:33:28 why no updates on meego.com about the newly released 1.1 as linked above (http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.1/netbook/images/meego-netbook-ia32/ etc..) Oct 28 10:33:58 Kiranos: probably coming today Oct 28 10:34:45 ok thanks! Oct 28 10:38:55 jeremiah: thanks, I'll use zypper then, since that's the one I'm familiar with myself Oct 28 11:01:04 is there any description of new features in Meego 1.1? Oct 28 11:26:41 hhello #meego bon appétit Oct 28 11:29:11 Hi, seems like meego emulator is pretty slow, is there any way to speed it up? Oct 28 11:30:36 with demulation Oct 28 11:31:05 sx0n, what is this? Oct 28 11:31:10 yay! booted 1.1 on the N900. no worries about making calls. the indicator says I don't even have a signal :) Oct 28 11:31:39 well, that indicates that you can call basically. The indicator isn't working properly with n900 modem yet. Oct 28 11:31:47 oooh Oct 28 11:31:52 how about SMS? Oct 28 11:31:58 if you see airplain you do not have network connectivity Oct 28 11:32:10 well, you should be able to sent those as well. Oct 28 11:32:25 chukcha, i think emulation emulates certain hw speed but i am probably wrong with this. :) Oct 28 11:34:28 may be ) But 2 fps almost all the time is too slow ( But looks like usual Qt applications runs at full speed, but MeegoTouch applications are very-very slow. I wonder why is this.. Oct 28 11:35:00 chukcha, which normal qt apps are you running in the meego emulator? Oct 28 11:35:59 cool. sent an SMS and even got a reply. but I can't read it (opens a blank "page" if I tap on the received message). but oh well. still cool :) Oct 28 11:36:35 Jucato: we love you for making those bug reports ;-) Oct 28 11:36:51 (or commenting or voting old ones) Oct 28 11:37:01 yeah I would presume it's alread known :) Oct 28 11:37:27 lcuk, well, I just created new Qt 4.7 project in QtCreator and launch it Oct 28 11:38:08 so I mean "normal qt" application - is app not using MeegoTouch UI framework Oct 28 11:38:48 who wanted the lspci/lsusb output from the strange lenovo s10-3t-s ? I have yet another one Oct 28 11:39:05 http://pastebin.com/5Vfkk5Ls Oct 28 11:40:21 er .. how do you get to that dialog/notification area where you can configure 3G,WiFi, etc? Oct 28 11:41:22 chukcha: hello, for use libmeegotouch you lust add " CONFIG += meegotouch " in your .pro file Oct 28 11:41:46 s/lust/must Oct 28 11:41:49 woops Oct 28 11:43:34 and once again, who manages the carrick* code? Oct 28 11:43:38 anyone? ) Oct 28 11:44:02 niala, thanks, well, I know how to use MeegoTouch ) I just see strange issue - MeegoTouch applications are very slow (2 fps), but "usual" Qt applications are quite fast. Why is the speed is so different? Oct 28 11:44:40 "use Qt then" :-> Oct 28 11:45:25 A wild guess - emulator's opengl is dodgy? :) Oct 28 11:45:26 different graphics engine by default perhaps? Oct 28 11:45:37 and Qt doesn't require it, just supports it :) Oct 28 11:46:00 chukcha: sorry I don't know, I don't see that for me. is you OS update? Oct 28 11:46:16 leinir, probably Oct 28 11:48:43 niala, hmm... this might be because I am running linux in virtual machine... Oct 28 11:51:09 yay I haz networking! (now if only my Inet connection would actually behave :() Oct 28 11:56:48 damn those are cute kittens :) Oct 28 11:57:47 hangs at the end?) Oct 28 11:58:12 the video? Oct 28 11:58:30 whydamn? Oct 28 11:58:40 because they're cute :) Oct 28 11:58:46 lol Oct 28 12:00:46 calls do work! I'm impressed! :) Oct 28 12:03:39 mrr? Oct 28 12:04:01 "mrr"? Oct 28 12:04:26 calls? Oct 28 12:04:31 phone calls Oct 28 12:04:49 I called myself (on another cellphone) Oct 28 12:04:51 I heard myself :) Oct 28 12:04:57 haha :) Oct 28 12:05:01 that's... thats really... yeah :) Oct 28 12:05:51 * Chani fails to see how this was impressive, though :) unless one of those phones was running some cool software. Oct 28 12:06:11 Chani: it's impressive that it actually works :) Oct 28 12:06:25 that *what* works? Oct 28 12:06:55 yeah, developing phone software is so easy and trivial Oct 28 12:06:59 making/receiving calls and SMS in MeeGo 1.1 Handset UX running on N900 Oct 28 12:07:12 detailed enough? :) Oct 28 12:07:35 * Jucato goes copy the kittens video in the meantime >.> Oct 28 12:07:46 ahh :) Oct 28 12:10:07 This was a triumph. I'm making a note here "Huge success!" Oct 28 12:10:18 It's hard to overstate my satisfaction Oct 28 12:10:25 now imagine how 1.2 can be like :) Oct 28 12:10:42 don't wanna imagine. I might pee :P Oct 28 12:10:48 hehe Oct 28 12:15:02 which tab/space scheme is used in meego generally? Oct 28 12:15:32 * sx0n *hides* Oct 28 12:18:25 http://www.jwz.org/doc/tabs-vs-spaces.html Oct 28 12:21:57 sx0n: That kind of depends on what you mean by "in meego" ;) Oct 28 12:23:25 Stskeeps, could we expect someone to update this wiki page? :) http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot Oct 28 12:23:32 it's marked as outdated :) Oct 28 12:23:49 http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/28/meego-v1-1-for-handsets-is-out-let-the-n900-dual-booting-begin/ Oct 28 12:24:02 Stskeeps, that's typically scenario when update is needed :) Oct 28 12:24:21 Surfa: we're working on a good dual boot solution Oct 28 12:24:29 ok, good.. Oct 28 12:24:47 hope it'll be availabe "soon enough" :) Oct 28 12:25:09 Surfa: It'll be ready much sooner if people don't have to keep telling others that it's being worked on ;) Oct 28 12:25:19 n900 is leading technology product :) having 4.7 and meego Oct 28 12:25:38 leinir, oh really? :P haven't seen that too many times here at least Oct 28 12:25:48 Maybe not in here, no :) Oct 28 12:25:57 too many channels Oct 28 12:26:06 not irc channels but communication channels Oct 28 12:30:56 Surfa: Oh for sure :) Oct 28 12:32:13 http://pastebin.com/6J9he5YC - any idea why connman does not detect wifi in available technologies? Oct 28 12:44:22 Any women looking to share a hotel room at the MeeGo Conference in Dublin? Oct 28 12:44:34 question: do you have to be a woman? Oct 28 12:44:35 ;D Oct 28 12:44:54 :D Oct 28 12:45:00 nocturnal, short of quick surgery I am going to be a woman at the Conference. Oct 28 12:45:22 nocturnal, matrixx: http://xkcd.com/322 Oct 28 12:45:29 Alison_Chaiken: possibly Oct 28 12:45:51 Lynoure, I booked a single room in the Conference hotel but can prolly change the res. Oct 28 12:46:00 Alison_Chaiken: if I can get approval to go, and find cheap enough flights. I'll probably know tomorrow. Oct 28 12:46:01 Myrtti: a classic one :) Oct 28 12:46:05 Myrtti: =D Oct 28 12:46:17 yes, I know, I use it as a kick message sometimes. Oct 28 12:46:18 Lynoure, my email is alchaiken@gmail.com. Let me know. Oct 28 12:49:06 Alison_Chaiken: ok, I will. Oct 28 12:57:09 o_O Termana :) Oct 28 12:59:26 so now I have flashed my N900 to PR1.3 and dd'd the MeeGo 1.1 raw image to microSD, what was the package to install from extras-devel to enable dualbooting MeeGo 1.1? Oct 28 13:00:42 dual booting *prototype* instructions: http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/U-Boot_from_scratch Oct 28 13:00:58 is the way to reboot or shutdown to remove the battery? Oct 28 13:01:19 hold down power button Oct 28 13:01:20 chem|st: power button? Oct 28 13:01:26 no usb cable in Oct 28 13:01:35 it takes a little longer than on maemo but it does happen Oct 28 13:03:13 X-Fade: doesnt doe anything... Oct 28 13:03:28 wait longer. Oct 28 13:03:29 X-Fade, hold it, it takes a lot longer Oct 28 13:03:33 when did 1.1 come out? Oct 28 13:03:39 26th october Oct 28 13:03:42 (I mean what time of day UTC) Oct 28 13:03:58 X-Fade: ok about 10-15 seconds... Oct 28 13:04:30 that is very long... Oct 28 13:05:21 indeed Oct 28 13:10:18 kudos to the people who runs the servers, they seem a lot faster than last week Oct 28 13:12:57 http://cross-lfs.org/~cosmo/meego/1.1/ :) Oct 28 13:16:42 didn't old MeeGo releases use flashable rootfs images? Oct 28 13:17:05 my tutorial does work still, but you might need an older ubifs Oct 28 13:17:12 / mtd-utils Oct 28 13:17:29 Doesn't fit anyway. Oct 28 13:17:39 Stskeeps, but you did use ubifs images for the N900+MeeGo right? Oct 28 13:17:46 we used to Oct 28 13:17:47 but no more Oct 28 13:17:48 even if it was a very stripped down build Oct 28 13:17:56 shuddup Oct 28 14:31:26 nice, some TI loving for MeeGo :) http://blogs.forbes.com/elizabethwoyke/2010/10/27/ti-views-tablets-meego-windows-phone-7-as-big-opportunity/ Oct 28 15:11:41 Can I install meego on my nokia 5530? Oct 28 15:12:13 no Oct 28 15:12:38 X-Fade: What about android? Oct 28 15:13:21 McPels: isn't that a question better suited for another channel? Oct 28 15:14:04 answer is still no Oct 28 15:14:33 (everything is of course possible) Oct 28 15:37:29 sounds like a no-go Oct 28 15:37:50 hey Tumi_ Oct 28 15:37:58 CosmoHill: hi! Oct 28 16:03:58 questions about meego sdk and qemu: just to make sure i had qemu setup right, i decided to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo and now have windows xp media center running under Qemu. Unlike the qemugl setup, this seems to automatically setup the network, and allow me to use a tablet directly w/o the nasty mouse grab business. is there a way to get those features in qemugl? Oct 28 16:05:12 i'm launching this qemu with "qemu -localtime -smb /media/disk -usb -usbdevice tablet -m 384 windows.img" ... and it "just works" Oct 28 16:07:08 http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/1825918/meego-n900-smartphone Oct 28 16:07:28 npm, by following the instructions on the meego website, I could ssh and scp into my MeeGo netbook guest but the included Chromium browser crashes and I haven't had a change to figure out why. Did you install libvirt too? See my notes at http://www.exerciseforthereader.org/PCBSD/PCBSD8_under_qemu-kvm.html if you're bored. Oct 28 16:07:35 MeeGo 1.1 released http://meego.com/ Oct 28 16:07:50 Alison_Chaiken: that's because it's on its own totally local cut off network Oct 28 16:08:00 where is the IRC cava? Oct 28 16:08:11 it needs to be routed to the actual network and there's some pointers in your document suggesting that Oct 28 16:08:15 released now? we noticed the images hours ago ;) Oct 28 16:08:20 however those instructions are complicated Oct 28 16:08:32 a release is not only about software ;) Oct 28 16:08:41 and doing qemu for windows didn't require all the complications to get networjking going Oct 28 16:08:50 http://meego.com/community/blogs/valhalla/2010/meego-1.1-release Oct 28 16:08:59 the 1.1 release is officially live now Oct 28 16:10:04 yes let's try Oct 28 16:10:23 DawnFoster: hey Oct 28 16:10:35 Alison_Chaiken: by complicated, i mean http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2062234#post2062234 and http://compsoc.dur.ac.uk/~djw/qemu.html Oct 28 16:10:35 I've got the ivi and netbook release copied onto my server for others to download Oct 28 16:12:00 and w/ winxp running all ifconfig says i have running is "virbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr AA:24:A8:C0:C2:A3 " and yet i have full network connectivity out of the windows qemu (ie. i can browse the net, run windows update etc) Oct 28 16:13:25 huh? my experience with qemu and networking was pretty straight forward under linux (haven't tried meego though specifically) Oct 28 16:13:39 Cool npm, I was planning to get started on making the bridge work better as my next step. Which MeeGo image are you using? Oct 28 16:14:26 i was using meego-handset-ia32-1.0.80.9.20100706.1-sdk-pre0901.raw meego-netbook-ia32-1.0.80.12.20100727.1-sdk-pre0901.raw i guess i should update to the release Oct 28 16:14:32 Yeah npm, I can see the same message under ifconfig on both the guest and the host. I suspect I have to change firewall rules on the host to get the bridge going. Oct 28 16:15:24 there are also some silent packages that need to be installed or. for example i didn't need dhcp so i removed it. but things don't work well unless it's installed in qemu Oct 28 16:16:38 (relatively) surprised to see major tech blogs telling everybody to dual-boot their N900s with MeeGo 1.1 - maybe they should try themselves first Oct 28 16:17:20 At least Nokia puts the focus on developers ;) http://conversations.nokia.com/2010/10/28/for-developers-eyes-only-meego-version-1-1/ Oct 28 16:19:10 npm: are we talking about handset images here? I'm pretty sure some of them don't have networking turned on by default so it has to be manually configured; at least that's what I had to do last week Oct 28 16:20:01 npm: the easiest way to use handset images under QEMU is through MADDE, where a lot of the hard work is done for you: see http://wiki.meego.com/SDK/Docs/1.1/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Linux and http://wiki.meego.com/SDK/Docs/1.1/Configuring_QEMU_targets Oct 28 16:20:16 npm (these are docs in progress, by the way) Oct 28 16:21:51 yep see http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-community/2010-October/002345.html for how far i got Oct 28 16:22:46 i was trying to get the networking part going, when i decided to see how qemu+winxp worked "for comparison" and "sanity check" Oct 28 16:25:54 from reading http://www.exerciseforthereader.org/PCBSD/PCBSD8_under_qemu-kvm.html it appeared i was stuck on the part connecting the kvm network to the actual network card Oct 28 16:26:32 wee got meego 1.1 installed on my n900 =D Oct 28 16:26:36 first time i've reinstalled a phone Oct 28 16:28:46 ok sorry to say it but first impression is "wow this thing looks like shit" Oct 28 16:28:53 of course it's not finished Oct 28 16:29:07 well, one problem is the scaling bug that exists Oct 28 16:29:10 the new icons look ugly Oct 28 16:29:13 oooh Oct 28 16:29:15 that explains it Oct 28 16:29:16 thanks Oct 28 16:29:23 because the icons are all grainy Oct 28 16:29:39 there's an open bug on the issue Oct 28 16:30:16 well i'm just playing around anyways, the n900 was never that good of a phone/mp3 player for daily use imo. much happier with a smaller devices such as the htc and with the sense ui. Oct 28 16:30:27 it's an awesome mobile computer though Oct 28 16:30:31 with gsm Oct 28 16:31:06 so i still carry it in my back pack just to have a linux terminal wherever i go, full freedom. Oct 28 16:31:59 townxelliot: what about http://wiki.meego.com/SDK/Docs/1.1/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Linux for building netbook images? that's the one i had trouble getting networking and browser working Oct 28 16:33:04 npm: to run netbook under QEMU? Oct 28 16:33:42 yes Oct 28 16:35:06 but i should try again with today's released bits... part of the reason for my windows digression is i figured i'd let the bits settle during release,and fix other problems that were holding me up Oct 28 16:36:40 npm I think you'll have to build your own QEMU-enabled (GL accelerated) image for netbook at the moment - as per http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo_SDK_Building_QEMU_Tools - I don't _think_ there are any netbook images with GL acceleration built in yet (I haven't heard about them, anyway) Oct 28 16:37:51 nocturnal: 1.1 Handset doesn't try to look nice to end users - it actually tries to look uninteresting to them Oct 28 16:38:24 hopefully today's update to qemugl will fix http://wiki.meego.com/SDK/Docs/1.1/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Linux Oct 28 16:38:33 oops mispaste http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-sdk/2010-October/000379.html Oct 28 16:41:34 any screenshots of meego 1.1 handset anywhere? Oct 28 16:42:06 I have Meego 1.0 installed on my netbook, what is the best way to upgrade to 1.1 ? zypper refresh & patch doesn't work... do I need to change the repos? Oct 28 16:42:23 reinstall Oct 28 16:42:36 it's possible to update manually with zypper but it's rather hard Oct 28 16:42:55 you have to zypper install --force --from (newrepo) $each_package Oct 28 16:43:09 and, that will break ... Oct 28 16:43:19 reinstall is the quickest, safest, and easiest Oct 28 16:43:27 will the reinstall preserve other programs installed (/usr/local) or does it require a clean wipe? Oct 28 16:43:37 oh, really? maybe I'm just spoiled with Debian... :) Oct 28 16:44:20 no fedora style "preupdate" available? Oct 28 16:44:29 npm: depends on what you tell the installer to do Oct 28 16:45:00 hopefully it has an option to overlay the existing os w/o overwriting? Oct 28 16:45:16 yes, you can set it to "not format" a partition Oct 28 16:45:32 use at your own risk Oct 28 16:45:37 excellent. Oct 28 16:45:38 oh Oct 28 16:45:45 so you recommend a clean wipe? Oct 28 16:48:49 I'm not recommending anything, just stating what the options and consequences are for each :) Oct 28 16:49:13 I personally run trunk on most my dev systems and never reinstall Oct 28 16:49:57 ok, thanks for the info :) I guess I'll just backup and reinstall then Oct 28 16:52:10 * niala reboot test 1.1 Oct 28 16:53:45 * auke digs through e-mail Oct 28 16:54:01 * CosmoHill hands auke a shovel Oct 28 16:54:01 hrm Oct 28 16:54:09 anyone got a recent meego install on IA? Oct 28 16:54:16 trunk? Oct 28 16:54:33 what does 'zypper verify' say for you? Oct 28 16:55:22 http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-sdk/2010-October/000379.html --> still a problem with latest qemu-gl.x86_64 0:0.12.4+git1+ee46cb4-6.2 Oct 28 16:55:24 Problem: product:MeeGo release-.meego is not installable Oct 28 16:55:55 yeah, we see same on ARM Oct 28 16:56:03 bug bug bug Oct 28 16:56:12 i think we reported one.. let me check Oct 28 16:56:35 suddenly maemo is starting, so i'm assuming there are some extra steps to make meego start by default Oct 28 16:56:39 qemu-gl-0.12.4-4.1.x86_64 was the last version that worked for me w/o black screen issue Oct 28 16:56:39 i'll read more on the wiki later Oct 28 16:56:46 yeah, BMC# 9099 Oct 28 17:06:11 does meego use telepathy? Oct 28 17:06:20 the handset ux that is Oct 28 17:07:17 hi Oct 28 17:07:31 what's new in meego 1.1 for netbook ? ;) Oct 28 17:07:45 besides components sync with upstream Oct 28 17:11:03 VLJ: everything! Oct 28 17:12:24 oh same splashscreen on 1.1 sad Oct 28 17:13:16 I'd love to have MeeGo on my N900, but I can't really figure out whether it has the same telephony/messaging features as Maemo. Like skype integration, WLM, jabber, all that Oct 28 17:13:24 with contact merging Oct 28 17:14:05 zhasha: according to the site, meego handset only has minimal functionality at the moment. You can make calls and send sms though at least Oct 28 17:14:09 CosmoHill: but the screenshots does look very much like 1.0 version Oct 28 17:14:23 * CosmoHill hasn't seen either :( Oct 28 17:14:37 loufoque_: well that's disappointing :/ will it be using telepathy? Oct 28 17:15:12 telepathy is part of the core of meego, so I guess it does Oct 28 17:15:20 I don't have it installed yet myself Oct 28 17:18:21 zhasha: have you read this yet: http://conversations.nokia.com/2010/10/28/for-developers-eyes-only-meego-version-1-1/ Oct 28 17:22:09 there is no qt 4.7.1 ? Oct 28 17:22:18 * VLJ is looking after Thiago Oct 28 17:22:47 Myrtti: I will now Oct 28 17:27:15 VLJ: qt-4.7.0-3.1.src.rpm http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.1/core/repos/source/ Oct 28 17:27:40 Tjena, jag försöker få igång meego sdkt på ubuntu 10.10 men misslyckas på qemu. Är jag i rätt kanal? Oct 28 17:28:29 tor: ja, men kanalen är engelskt Oct 28 17:28:52 Myrtti, sorry thought i typed in meegosweden Oct 28 17:28:56 kek Oct 28 17:29:18 yw :-P Oct 28 17:30:31 Hi i'm trying to get the meego sdk (netbook version) running on ubuntu 10.10 (32 bit) but all im getting is a grey window when i start meego-qemu-start Oct 28 17:32:35 anyone with an idea on how to debug this? Oct 28 17:32:36 thx Oct 28 17:32:44 err Oct 28 17:32:52 there is still no silverlight on meego ? Oct 28 17:34:20 VLJ: there's not silver light on my mac either Oct 28 17:34:25 short question, does meego have support for ipv6? Oct 28 17:34:32 ioan: yes Oct 28 17:34:35 thanks Oct 28 17:34:53 CosmoHill: sure ? Oct 28 17:35:13 CosmoHill, ppc mac no? Oct 28 17:35:14 VLJ: the silverlight or ipv6 thing? Oct 28 17:35:20 bef0rd: correct Oct 28 17:35:44 :) Oct 28 17:35:57 wonder if moonlight is available for ppc Oct 28 17:36:18 silverlight Oct 28 17:36:42 VLJ: only version 1 is supported on powermac mac Oct 28 17:36:50 I though windows and mac version of sl were released synchronously Oct 28 17:36:52 powerpc* Oct 28 17:36:57 probably on intel mac Oct 28 17:37:01 ok Oct 28 17:37:20 tor: are you using SDK netbook images from http://wiki.meego.com/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Linux? Oct 28 17:37:31 is there a new release of moonlight that run on top of mono 2.8 ? Oct 28 17:37:39 it has a better garbage collector Oct 28 17:37:56 townxelliot, yes i follow the instructions on the wiki so i suppose so? Oct 28 17:38:33 tor: did you do the graphics checks? Oct 28 17:38:54 townxelliot, yes (Will double check) Oct 28 17:41:00 townxelliot, i however does not get "Mesa DRI" when checking glxinfo i get "Quadro FX 2700M...." Oct 28 17:41:45 should that not work? Oct 28 17:49:53 tor: what do you get if you run: glxinfo | grep "renderer string" ? Oct 28 17:54:19 townxelliot, i get "Quadro FX 2700M...." Oct 28 17:54:41 tor, townxelliot: sounds like the same problem i'm seeing here: http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-sdk/2010-October/000379.html Oct 28 17:56:30 tor: are you also seeing "IRQ's not enabled, falling back to busy waits: 2 0" Oct 28 17:57:04 npm, I'm reading up wait a while Oct 28 17:57:39 * VladNistor says hello Oct 28 17:57:43 the only time i was able to get it running correcty, it was not outputting those messages, and "qemu-gl-0.12.4-4.1.x86_64" updating to "qemu-gl.x86_64 0:0.12.4+git1+ee46cb4-6.1" caused a regression Oct 28 17:58:41 if I were to use this guide (http://meego.com/devices/handset/installing-meego-nokia-n900), but instead of dd the files to an sd card I were to use a partition I made on the internal 32gb memory, would it still work? Oct 28 17:58:42 if anybody has an old copy of qemu-gl-0.12.4-4.1.x86_64 RPM. i could confirm that upgrading the package caused regression Oct 28 17:58:51 unfortunately yum downgrade doesn't work Oct 28 18:01:27 townxelliot: are imagesd from http://wiki.meego.com/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Linux the latest and greatest 1.1's?? Oct 28 18:04:01 npm, i see no "IRQ's not enabled.." when launching the image. And i have no flicker in the window either. Oct 28 18:04:38 there's no flicker unless you move the mouse around inside the window, esp near the top of window Oct 28 18:04:55 then you can see the screen flashing briefly as it refreshes Oct 28 18:05:25 or start an xterm and setup the gnome cursor to flash quickly.; then you can see the screen flash every time the cursor refreshes Oct 28 18:05:35 but otherwise the screen stays black Oct 28 18:06:00 you can also get it to crash by focussing the qemu window shortly after it starts Oct 28 18:06:04 npm: We let qemu take focus and we see no flicker at all :( We get a "solid" grey/gradient on the window. Oct 28 18:06:22 how about starting it w/o letting it take focus Oct 28 18:06:30 then give it focus Oct 28 18:06:55 npm, sorry that was what we do. We launch the window and then click into it. Oct 28 18:07:02 Regardless, no flicker. Oct 28 18:07:16 yep. and when i do that i see the screen flicker several times and them go black Oct 28 18:07:41 if i focus into it afterwards, i can move the mouse around and cause it to refresh, and that lets me see it briefly Oct 28 18:08:10 npm: no, they're out of date Oct 28 18:08:23 npm, sorry but regardless on how i move the mouse i get no flicker :( Oct 28 18:08:33 townxelliot: what images should we be using? Oct 28 18:09:07 or is it just a matter of letting the dust settle from the release and then we'll have latest images? Oct 28 18:09:08 npm: there are no netbook images built specifically for QEMU at the moment; but you can run handset under QEMU from MADDE Oct 28 18:09:39 and when i run the handset, networking won't be enabled, though, right? Oct 28 18:09:47 npm: and I've had some issues today with latest images running in QEMU - the approach I took last week no longer works Oct 28 18:10:16 npm: no, under MADDE handset networking is enabled - you should try it, it's much nicer than trying to do it yourself :) Oct 28 18:10:33 npm: I'm hopeful that netbook runtimes for MADDE will be available soon Oct 28 18:11:11 ok i will try the madde approach then. thanks for suggestion Oct 28 18:14:10 cool! http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/OMAP4_Panda Oct 28 18:14:50 yeah, they've been involved in the #meego-arm irc channel for a while now, is active on meego-kernel mailing list, etc Oct 28 18:18:37 Stskeeps: maybe it's time to organize http://wiki.meego.com/ARM#Running_MeeGo_on_ARM by OMAP4, OMAP3... ? Oct 28 18:19:26 yeah, we need to clean up that page.. hmm Oct 28 18:23:13 hopefully more info and perhaps projects will be available after the MeeGo Conference (me hopes) Stskeeps Oct 28 18:28:49 npm: the handset image is pretty out of date (July), but hopefully there will be an update before too long Oct 28 18:29:36 cool Oct 28 18:42:12 turns out you can get qemugl to behave like a normal window (no ctl-alt locking) by adding "-usb -usbdevice tablet" per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo#USB Tablet Emulation Oct 28 18:42:34 hey!

Oct 28 18:43:26 anyone here can tell me wtf meego is? Oct 28 18:43:36 www.meego.com Oct 28 18:43:37 it's an operating system for everything??? Oct 28 18:43:48 for my toaster oven? Oct 28 18:43:56 will it work on my car? Oct 28 18:44:00 corrected link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo#USB Tablet Emulation Oct 28 18:44:01 maybe even my iPhone 4 Oct 28 18:44:04 doh https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo#USB%20Tablet%20Emulation Oct 28 18:44:17 iPad Oct 28 18:44:35 meego with mongoDB running on my wristwatch ?

Oct 28 18:45:18 Stskeeps, feed me Oct 28 18:45:57 hey Oct 28 18:45:58 wtf Oct 28 18:46:04 somebody tell me what meego is already Oct 28 18:46:10 the suspense is killing me Oct 28 18:46:33 !whatismeego Oct 28 18:46:58 it is the future:) Oct 28 18:47:03 huh Oct 28 18:47:04 ? Oct 28 18:47:11 i can download the future? Oct 28 18:47:22 maybe inject the future with a virus and email it around? Oct 28 18:47:31 is there a facebook page for the future? Oct 28 18:47:46 http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot << is this a joke? that page is half way done Oct 28 18:47:52 lol Oct 28 18:47:55 it's a joke Oct 28 18:47:59 apol, joke's on u Oct 28 18:48:08 can somebody tell me what do I have to put on my card? Oct 28 18:48:17 apol, RTFM Oct 28 18:48:20 ! Oct 28 18:48:30 the FM ends with some "..." Oct 28 18:48:41 ahh! Oct 28 18:48:45 thanks for the heads up Oct 28 18:48:53 I will remember that next time you ask a moronic question Oct 28 18:49:00 neat Oct 28 18:49:03 lol Oct 28 18:49:12 apol, u know i'm joking, you're my dog! Oct 28 18:49:22 can you point me out to the FM? Oct 28 18:49:29 yessir Oct 28 18:49:33 just hold your horses Oct 28 18:49:34 thanks Oct 28 18:49:41 http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot Oct 28 18:49:43 http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot Oct 28 18:49:43 http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot Oct 28 18:49:55 er... Oct 28 18:50:00 dual boot does not require triple links :P Oct 28 18:50:07 no? Oct 28 18:50:12 how about 4? Oct 28 18:50:12 http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot Oct 28 18:50:26 apol, notice the FM link Oct 28 18:50:32 so you want extra booting? Oct 28 18:50:45 Yup Oct 28 18:50:49 XL booting Oct 28 18:51:00 lcuk: yes, I wanted to try meego Oct 28 18:51:04 I love dual booting meego Oct 28 18:51:12 i dual boot it with windows Oct 28 18:51:16 but I can't find how to flash the sd Oct 28 18:51:18 sometimes with Solaris Oct 28 18:51:26 sometimes i dual boot meego with my asshole Oct 28 18:51:34 oops Oct 28 18:51:57 TinyIRC: please behave, or leave Oct 28 18:52:02 huh Oct 28 18:52:03 ? Oct 28 18:52:08 it was an accident]\ Oct 28 18:52:13 * TinyIRC is sorry Oct 28 18:52:14 apol, still the recommended method for testing meego images http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/MMC Oct 28 18:52:29 until the uboot/dualboot instructions are ironed out Oct 28 18:52:50 * meego_king is available for questions now... Oct 28 18:53:12 * meego_king is now off duty. send your questions offline and they will be answered tomorrow Oct 28 18:53:36 aight niggas, i'm out! Oct 28 18:54:49 lcuk: what's the difference? Oct 28 18:55:09 apol: the finished instructions require using the cable&flasher to boot the meego kernel Oct 28 18:55:21 (unlike a true multiboot solution) Oct 28 18:55:31 gah Oct 28 18:55:39 * apol will wait -.- Oct 28 18:56:07 apol, the full dualbooting allows inserting removing the memory card with meego on a regular basis, the original instructions involve just flashing a kernel for a one shot dealio Oct 28 18:57:04 Whereas *real* dual booting would be a bootmenu type affair; adding/removing memory cards is a bit too much like Amiga "insert OS on floppy to continue" Oct 28 18:57:32 i just wanted to try my apps on meego Oct 28 18:58:13 then you can follow the "finished" instructions to the letter, it will allow you to run it Oct 28 18:58:25 Jaffa, only if you have a floppy disk box to flick through Oct 28 18:58:51 the point is, the instructions are still in progress and all feedback and information is being worked on Oct 28 18:59:23 ok Oct 28 18:59:38 i'm sorry if I came out wrong, but it was weird to see it ending with "..." Oct 28 19:00:40 i'm currently usint dd to write the raw file to a partition on the emmc, let's see if that works Oct 28 19:06:09 meego ivi has pocketsphinx (aka voice recognition) -- here's to hoping meego handset takes a hint :) Oct 28 19:14:27 lcuk: 'sall good stuff Oct 28 19:18:37 evening folks Oct 28 19:19:19 evening Oct 28 19:19:43 congrats to all involved on the 1.1 relase Oct 28 19:19:47 release Oct 28 19:20:06 been off this week, but decided to fire up the laptop to see if it happened Oct 28 19:21:15 I've read that it should've become more easy to install MeeGo on N900, after the PR1.3 update. Can someone provide more information on this? Oct 28 19:21:47 can I just dd a flashcard and boot it directly, for instance? Oct 28 19:22:06 jo-erlend: if you wait a little bit we'll have a proper way. but currnetly you need to use a PC to load kernel, but yes, besides that, it'd dding a flashcard Oct 28 19:22:22 wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/MMC Oct 28 19:22:25 it's really simple Oct 28 19:22:30 nice. Thanks. Oct 28 19:22:43 alright, so I dd an internal partition on the emmc and that doesn't work, i got a kernel panic about not being able to mount Oct 28 19:23:01 i think it doesn't know it should mount mmcblk0p6 :( Oct 28 19:23:07 do you tell it to? Oct 28 19:23:08 :P Oct 28 19:23:25 i don't think I can if i just load the kernel Oct 28 19:24:15 maybe if I flashed the kernel and flaged the partition as boot... Oct 28 19:24:57 you'll need some more things after -b (-b"something" means something is the kernel command line Oct 28 19:25:03 find the kernel command line in /boot/config* Oct 28 19:26:05 thanks Stskeeps, I didn't know i could add stuff after the -b Oct 28 19:26:30 i would need to tell it root=mmcblk0p6 Oct 28 19:29:07 Stskeeps, do I need to install the kernel after dding the mmc, or what? I didn't quite understand that from the guide. Oct 28 19:39:53 oh. I'm sorry. The guide didn't end with Windows. :) Oct 28 19:40:34 it might be a silly question, but: is firefox not available for 1.1 ? Oct 28 19:42:21 jo-erlend, nothing does :)) Oct 28 19:43:22 hehe Oct 28 19:46:21 auke, bug 8474 is still locked Oct 28 19:46:23 <_MeeGoBot_> Bug https://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8474 is not accessible Oct 28 20:00:46 Hi there. I registered on the forum but was surprised not to have to enter a password and I haven't received any mail with a password.I cannot login on the forum. Whatsup? Oct 28 20:03:41 holy crap. I can't get any lifesigns out of my phone after uploading the kernel. Oct 28 20:03:47 @slaine Did you write the info on adding broadcom WiFi support? Oct 28 20:04:48 nothing seems to work, i try passing it root=/dev/mmcblk0p6, or even the b307 code fore it but then it just panics again, saying it can't open mmcblk0p6 :( Oct 28 20:05:08 any ideas here, please? Oct 28 20:05:11 what handsets does meego support besides N900? Oct 28 20:05:54 jo-erlend, did you flash or load the kernel? (-l or -k option in flasher) Oct 28 20:06:03 -l Oct 28 20:06:15 i meant l or f Oct 28 20:06:27 well if you turn it off and on you should be back to maemo Oct 28 20:06:31 just remove the battery Oct 28 20:06:32 -l -k Oct 28 20:07:00 yeah, k is for kernel, l is for load, f is for flash :) Oct 28 20:07:05 VladNistor: emmc will be mmcblk1 if you have a microsd in Oct 28 20:07:15 Anyone able to help with the forum registration issue? Oct 28 20:07:17 VladNistor, oh.. I have light on the display :) Oct 28 20:07:24 jo-erlend: you need a '-b' Oct 28 20:07:30 as well Oct 28 20:07:35 Stskeeps, yes, I added that to the end of it. Oct 28 20:08:03 i don't have a micorsd, i repartitiond the internal memory, and am trying to use that :) Oct 28 20:08:07 what are you booting, the vmlinuz, right? Oct 28 20:08:19 Stskeeps, right. Oct 28 20:08:30 flasher -l -k vmlinuz -b is what i do personally Oct 28 20:08:34 I didn't wait very long though, but it was completely lifeless and pressing the powerbutton did nothing. Oct 28 20:08:49 Stskeeps, right, that's what I did. Oct 28 20:09:06 device fully off, usb cable out , start flasher, put usb cable in? Oct 28 20:09:35 Stskeeps, right, and the device was found and everything. Oct 28 20:09:40 hmm Oct 28 20:10:04 KNOCK KNOCK :D Oct 28 20:10:16 I didn't wait very long though. Does it take a little while before anything happens? Oct 28 20:10:41 should be instant after it finishes flashing Oct 28 20:10:46 or loading Oct 28 20:11:03 it gives me that haptic feedback. But nothing more. Oct 28 20:11:08 mine panics in 0.87 seconds :)) Oct 28 20:12:05 Oooh.. haptic feedback... kewl.. BTW Am I invisible? *waves* Oct 28 20:12:08 VladNistor, how do you know that? Oct 28 20:12:35 it shows the kernel loading, and then it tells me stuff :)) Oct 28 20:12:49 but then has a panic attack Oct 28 20:12:58 Stskeeps, can you provide some info on exactly which device you're using and software? I use the newest I could find. Oct 28 20:13:46 flasher-3.5 Oct 28 20:13:49 Let me ask again... Oct 28 20:13:53 Hi there. I registered on the forum but was surprised not to have to enter a password and I haven't received any mail with a password.I cannot login on the forum. Whatsup? Oct 28 20:14:07 drbob: i thought the forum uses meego.com logins Oct 28 20:14:20 What are those? Oct 28 20:14:28 lcuk: I know (sigh) Oct 28 20:14:51 I just registered in the forum Oct 28 20:14:56 if i only have a 64-bit linux available, is it possible to get flasher-3.5 to work for me? Oct 28 20:15:05 on my end, it sais it's found a Device: RX-51, hardware revision 2101. NOLO version 1.4.14. Version of 'sw-release': RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2_PR_MR0 Oct 28 20:15:24 acemo, yes, just follow the install guide Oct 28 20:15:29 Stskeeps ^ Oct 28 20:16:15 jo-erland, and then it should say it Sending kernel image (1563 kB)... Oct 28 20:16:19 jo-erlend: sounds good.. and does it send kernel? Oct 28 20:16:22 yes. Oct 28 20:16:36 and then the phone "shakes" and then nothing more. Oct 28 20:16:44 hmm. Oct 28 20:17:01 this is the ones I used: http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.1.80/1.1.80.3.20101026.1/handset/images/ Oct 28 20:17:03 oh Oct 28 20:17:12 well those are currently sour :) Oct 28 20:17:20 oh, so I need an older one? Oct 28 20:17:23 no, younger Oct 28 20:17:28 1.1.80 is 1.2 alpha Oct 28 20:17:41 so you need to grab the 1.1 release image instead Oct 28 20:17:56 where do I find that? Oct 28 20:18:23 well, if you go to meego.com you can hardly missi t.. Oct 28 20:18:24 :P Oct 28 20:18:53 hehe, sorry. :) Oct 28 20:18:55 VladNistor: its bitching about libusb-0.1.so.4 Oct 28 20:19:40 I also tried the "Have you forgotten your password?" spiel but again no e-mail :( Oct 28 20:20:33 acemo, i remember forcing it to install on my ubuntu 64 a while back Oct 28 20:22:40 * VladNistor thinks he might wait for an official guide as he can't seem to convince the meego kernel meego is at mmcblk0p6 and b307 Oct 28 20:23:18 does it show up in the error message? Oct 28 20:24:17 OK third time's a charm... Hi there. I registered on the forum but was surprised not to have to enter a password and I haven't received any mail with a password. I cannot login on the forum. Whatsup? Oct 28 20:24:36 if i tell it b307 it knows where that is but it can't mount it Oct 28 20:24:37 drbob: we heard you first time - did you get a login on meego.com first? Oct 28 20:24:45 VladNistor: what image are you using? Oct 28 20:24:53 What do you mean with that? Oct 28 20:24:58 the one on the homepage Oct 28 20:25:01 drbob: www.meego.com Oct 28 20:25:12 Yes...? Oct 28 20:25:18 VladNistor: nvm, the flasher works, didn't have a correct lib32-libusb installed. Oct 28 20:25:19 you use same login for the forum.meego.com and you get one by making it on meego.com Oct 28 20:25:31 * acemo slaps self Oct 28 20:25:32 I only made it in the forum Oct 28 20:25:46 well, i don't know if there's a signup that works there :P Oct 28 20:25:48 but i might be wrong Oct 28 20:26:01 I don't get any mails Oct 28 20:26:26 check your spam folder and otherwise, file a bug on bugs.meego.com that you're not getting your account creation email Oct 28 20:26:34 specifying which Oct 28 20:26:42 Also tried the "forgottten password" option Oct 28 20:26:49 Not in spam folder. Oct 28 20:26:55 but if anyone has a WIP guide on dual-booting -not from an sd card but internal memory- I would love to help with testing Oct 28 20:27:05 drbob: you aren't using openid? Oct 28 20:27:13 VladNistor: we have a hardcore one, since you know what b307 is.. Oct 28 20:27:16 No opnid Oct 28 20:27:52 VladNistor: er, actually, nm, uboot doesnt access the emmc atm Oct 28 20:28:04 VladNistor: how did you fill in stuff into the partition and from where? Oct 28 20:28:13 Anyone here who kan access the inner workings of the meego site? Oct 28 20:28:59 Stskeeps, i used the rescue initrd to partition and then send the stuff there Oct 28 20:29:11 VladNistor: 'the stuff' being? Oct 28 20:29:13 the full image? Oct 28 20:29:21 the .raw file, yes Oct 28 20:29:36 right, so let me illustrate to you what is happening.. Oct 28 20:30:00 you have your partition table on your emmc and now you just entered a partition with another partition table inside.. the image is a sd card :) Oct 28 20:30:13 you need to manually mount it and rsync it to your new partition or somehow copy p1 from the image Oct 28 20:30:37 mount -o offset=16384 or 512, i forget, should be useful Oct 28 20:31:30 Stskeeps: thanks, I will investigate this further Oct 28 20:32:15 uboot should access the emmc though. Isn't the emmc faster than the sdcard? Oct 28 20:32:31 we need to get uboot working with the emmc, currently it doesn't Oct 28 20:33:13 i hope it will one day, i'm not really that interested in spending money on an sdcard Oct 28 20:33:52 OK I give up. Strangest registration (without having to give a password) I've ever seen. Oct 28 20:33:54 heh, i've killed at least two.. Oct 28 20:34:04 (sdcards) Oct 28 20:34:17 yes :) Oct 28 20:35:31 auke, do you know whats actually blocking it since you obviously thought you had unblocked it already Oct 28 20:35:32 well if i can help with anything to get it working on emmc i would love to Oct 28 20:36:27 well, if you hack, be my guest :P Oct 28 20:36:57 it's back to blocked again? Oct 28 20:36:57 :P Oct 28 20:37:56 Stskeeps, if it was opened it was such only for a few minutes, i guess you got the copy and paste for it, or added to the security list? Oct 28 20:37:58 well i don't really, i've just been using linux for a while and learned a thig or two along the way Oct 28 20:38:20 lcuk: i've read what i had and noted to myself it's Someone Else's Problem Oct 28 20:38:52 and we'll wait for the solution.. Oct 28 20:38:54 it may be someone elses problem but having the bug open would allow us to follow it and potentially offer help Oct 28 20:39:22 it might not be me or you, but as we know from community, people with the strangest skills emerge Oct 28 20:39:23 is it normal for meego 1.1 to take about 3-4 seconds for each application to start, to ocasionally blank the screen for around 10 seconds on a n900? Oct 28 20:40:00 acemo: yes, we aren't doing any industry tricks like preloading and other stuff yet Oct 28 20:40:19 the blanking screen thing can be a gfx driver related issue Oct 28 20:40:28 oooh industry tricks Oct 28 20:40:56 i thought they were just commonly known as optimisations :P Oct 28 20:40:59 the general slowness of interface is gfx driver issue, if you see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWtMLs3j09U&feature=player_embedded , it's capable of being much better Oct 28 20:41:02 :P Oct 28 20:41:24 how would someone actually use that graphics driver then? Oct 28 20:41:30 if it exists? Oct 28 20:41:58 it obviously exists and generally people ask me after they sign over their soul to me, their firstborn and that they accept minimizing apps will kill their xorg once in a while.. Oct 28 20:42:06 yeah, there is a whole list of bugs for meego in the N900 regarding the apps Oct 28 20:42:25 ask me=get it Oct 28 20:42:54 no soul signing Stskeeps Oct 28 20:42:58 just simple driver update Oct 28 20:42:59 aw Oct 28 20:43:00 :P Oct 28 20:43:19 i have no personal need for drivers, i know how tearfree on n900 looks Oct 28 20:43:51 i need to spend some more time debugging the issue, i have an assertion in place we need to beat, so :) Oct 28 20:44:06 but that video shows it working? Oct 28 20:44:11 yes Oct 28 20:44:19 it just crashes fairly often Oct 28 20:44:37 so, its similar to the 810 driver in that regard Oct 28 20:44:43 nah Oct 28 20:44:46 this one is fixable Oct 28 20:44:46 :P Oct 28 20:45:20 only if the right people get it in their hands and offer patches or info ;) Oct 28 20:45:55 if you'd like to gdb over xorg and figure out the cause, be my guest Oct 28 20:46:27 hey! It's running. :) Oct 28 20:46:43 i would rather tear out my fingernails in a door than do that, but other sadists might Oct 28 20:46:47 where are the drivers held? Oct 28 20:46:54 they're under my obs project Oct 28 20:47:01 fbdev-sgx is the culprit though Oct 28 20:48:54 DawnFoster: ping Oct 28 20:50:19 hm Stskeeps - so the packages on the far end of your OBS can be installed directly on 1.1? Oct 28 20:50:32 pretty much Oct 28 20:52:06 hey thiago - you in Portland today? Oct 28 20:56:27 DawnFoster: yep Oct 28 20:56:33 DawnFoster: I'll be in the office in one hour Oct 28 20:56:37 DawnFoster: and then again tomorrow Oct 28 20:57:13 thiago: cool - the office in Aloha? I'm sitting in Amy Leeland's cube. (I won't be in the office tomorrow) Oct 28 20:57:34 DawnFoster: yes Oct 28 20:57:41 DawnFoster: if you're in Amy's place, where's Amy? Oct 28 20:58:25 thiago: I'm in the main bullpen where Imad, Arjan, Mark Skarpness & Hillarie sit. Oct 28 20:58:45 I heard that you guys are in a temporary office Oct 28 20:59:24 thiago: yeah, we're in one of the fabs - we have beware of wafer truck warnings in the hallways :) Oct 28 20:59:41 ok :-) Oct 28 21:01:06 DawnFoster: I'll see you in approx. half an hour then Oct 28 21:01:26 thiago: will be great to put a face with the email / IRC handles :) Oct 28 21:01:42 DawnFoster, wafer truck?! is that the ice cream kind? Oct 28 21:01:49 well, like I said, I've already seen you (OSTS) Oct 28 21:01:54 but I was in the audience and didn't introduce myself Oct 28 21:02:19 thiago: that was my second week back at Intel - the whole event was a blur of new faces Oct 28 21:02:28 ah, right Oct 28 21:02:29 lcuk: I wish! Oct 28 21:02:53 hey, just tried to get meego 1.1 running over nfs, but i can't figure out which modules fire up the usb net on the n900.... any hints ? Oct 28 21:04:58 interesting software. It ran extremely slowly, but that might have been due to my mmc. It seems to have much bigger focus on portrait mode... That is awesome. Oct 28 21:05:13 DawnFoster: are there any celebrations in the office today? Oct 28 21:06:14 thiago: we're too tired after getting the release out to party :) Oct 28 21:06:37 a celebratory nap might be in order Oct 28 21:06:43 ok, so dublin it is :-) Oct 28 21:08:29 hey, just tried to get meego 1.1 running over nfs, but i can't figure out which modules fire up the usb net on the n900.... any hints ? anyone ? anything ? Oct 28 21:09:58 gotzl: initrd should do that Oct 28 21:10:55 DawnFoster: noone announced 1.1 on meego-announce btw Oct 28 21:11:46 gotzl: meego does not support NFS Oct 28 21:12:10 auke: well, the n900 kernel + busybox does :P Oct 28 21:12:27 Stskeeps: cheaters Oct 28 21:12:51 i do have a pretty good use case for nfs in meego these days though Oct 28 21:13:11 nfs mount /usr/src and /usr/lib/debug for those bloody debuginfo packages Oct 28 21:13:18 and don't say sshfs Oct 28 21:13:18 :P Oct 28 21:14:53 Stskeeps: actually, we're working on that - quim tried to send it twice - never arrived. Oct 28 21:14:57 I'm going to try it Oct 28 21:15:11 i was a little surprised to find it empty :) Oct 28 21:15:55 Stskeeps: ftp! oh wait... ;) Oct 28 21:16:00 crfs? Oct 28 21:16:03 crfs? Oct 28 21:16:08 crfs! Oct 28 21:16:23 btrfs over nbd? Oct 28 21:16:24 :P Oct 28 21:16:32 pretty much Oct 28 21:17:46 i wouldn't mind a iscsi client at times.. Oct 28 21:18:28 Stskeeps: ok, it just went out Oct 28 21:18:33 yep, saw :) Oct 28 21:32:26 DawnFoster: leaving now. See you in 15 min. Oct 28 22:23:40 hi all, I am about to make a new install on friend's netbook that has moblin 2.1 installed and to replace it with meego v1.1. I am curious is there support for 3g/hsdpa usb modems in this latest release? Is it visible through ofono/connman or to continue /failback to using wvdial and scripts ? Oct 28 22:26:31 Oct 28 23:27:51 cyas Oct 28 23:55:01 hi Meego fans Oct 28 23:55:35 can I use maemo and Meego at the same time on N900? Oct 28 23:55:55 can I multiboot them on my device? Oct 28 23:57:04 i asked that a while ago Oct 28 23:57:22 dual boot is not officially supported yet (there's no doc) Oct 28 23:57:24 http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/MMC Oct 28 23:57:30 that's the wayy to do it Oct 28 23:59:31 oh right, thanks apol Oct 29 00:39:59 sup fewls Oct 29 00:40:02 what's poppin Oct 29 00:40:16 I'm trying to learn what Meego is?

Oct 29 00:41:38 or laptops? Oct 29 00:41:46 is a laptop a mobile device? Oct 29 00:42:06 no Oct 29 00:42:19 so, it's for mobile devices ONLY Oct 29 00:42:23 ? Oct 29 00:42:32 is it just Ubuntu with different name? Oct 29 00:42:48 do you have a laptop with intel graphics chipset? Oct 29 00:42:51 maybe different flavor of freebsd ? Oct 29 00:42:56 yessir Oct 29 00:43:01 well then Oct 29 00:43:02 do this Oct 29 00:43:06 ok Oct 29 00:43:08 tell me Oct 29 00:43:08 go download the 1.1 netbook image Oct 29 00:43:10 and try it Oct 29 00:43:14 hrmm Oct 29 00:43:21 i don't know if that's gonna happen Oct 29 00:43:40 was really hoping to get some info here Oct 29 00:43:47 without downloading viri Oct 29 00:43:49 meego is linux Oct 29 00:43:53 pfff Oct 29 00:43:58 dude, go try it first Oct 29 00:44:02 hrm Oct 29 00:44:04 i dunno Oct 29 00:44:07 tell me this Oct 29 00:44:23 can i use it to run a server on my phone ? Oct 29 00:44:27 after you try it, I might tell you. Oct 29 00:44:34 goodbye, I have to leave Oct 29 00:44:36 i think you'll tell me now Oct 29 00:44:37 * auke is AFK Oct 29 00:44:44 fuck u then Oct 29 00:44:49 and fuck meego Oct 29 00:47:13 O.o Oct 29 00:59:32 whats Nokia official openion about Meego on N900? Oct 29 01:11:39 hmm, so if geoclue is he positioning engine in MeeGo, how does it play with Mobility location services? Oct 29 01:11:57 or, is it the engine to which Mobility plugs in Oct 29 01:11:58 ? Oct 29 01:14:56 you're supposed to use the QtMobility api to access the geolocation information, and not know anything about how it's implemented below that Oct 29 01:16:12 sofar: sure, but I'm intereste to know about Geoclue's engine, since during some talks about mobility I attended it seems you can use multiple sources of informatoin including OVI's navtech et al Oct 29 01:24:59 sivang: I see Oct 29 01:25:22 well basically it's an information provider to qtmob Oct 29 01:25:46 but, geoclue is widely documented on it's own webpage Oct 29 01:26:11 sofar: okay, that what I thought. and it draws its data from open source information providing projects? Oct 29 01:26:20 sofar: like open streets maps, or example Oct 29 01:26:22 *for Oct 29 01:26:34 http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/GeoClue really answers all that Oct 29 01:26:40 check it out Oct 29 01:26:58 front page is very informative already Oct 29 01:29:33 sofar: thanks! Oct 29 01:30:56 sofar: is dbus communication so thin and light that it is used so extensively,even on embedded platforms? Oct 29 01:31:14 reasonably, yes Oct 29 01:32:12 apart from that, there's no way around it really Oct 29 01:32:25 as a form of IPC, it's majorly taken over Oct 29 01:36:45 sofar: I see, I had some observations it sometimes brings Maemo on a performance jerk, but I guess there isn't much way aroud it, I just wonder if IPC could be minimized in terms of APIs Oct 29 01:37:00 sofar: so use it as less as possible, but it seems every new thing is dbus'd Oct 29 01:37:26 sofar: especially if multiple events arrive at the same time and UI is trying to cope up with... Oct 29 01:38:22 sofar: I mean, if there's a good contract, why IPC need be used? permission elevation? Oct 29 01:38:50 sofar: please be adviced I might be looking at this too naively Oct 29 01:39:13 sofar: ACLs are a good use case, though Oct 29 01:39:53 sofar: anyway, I'm re-crossing my time zone which is not good ;) Leave replies and I Will check them on my backlog. thanks for you hints. Oct 29 01:48:37 hi im considering weego for my soon to arive dell mini 10 was wandering how it would work and if it has suport to play some light games on it like zsnes for example Oct 29 01:49:15 it should mostly work, wireless may be an issue depending on the wireless chipset Oct 29 01:49:28 assuming you'll install the netbook image on it Oct 29 01:49:38 there's a live ISO so you can try it before installing Oct 29 01:49:51 cool Oct 29 01:51:30 its a relativly modest lil thing with 1.66 ghz atom 1gig of ram 250 gig hd not sure on wireless chipset has sd lots and usb but heck i only payed 42 dollers for it though att Oct 29 01:52:02 bundle deal?

Oct 29 02:07:05 meego supports flash in the netbook build Oct 29 02:07:42 there's no zsnes play program although it should be trivial to install it or compile it Oct 29 02:08:09 cool Oct 29 02:27:08 Hello meegoers Oct 29 02:29:34 Is it possible to replace my Symbian with MeeGo now?
