Feb 16 06:56:09 although that is a massive over-generalisation. Feb 16 06:56:14 I'm sure there are some assholes. Feb 16 06:56:33 oh yes Feb 16 06:56:43 I'm pretty sure I qualify for that label Feb 16 06:57:31 woop Feb 16 06:59:48 Are there mirror sites for the meego-tablet image ? I'm not able to complete a download it gets interrupted before it finished. Feb 16 07:06:18 obit_sweden: install downthemall plugin to firefox and download it with it. worked for me that way Feb 16 07:10:24 elop said: "With MeeGo, we could see the emergence of other products such as GPS navigation devices." http://www.lefigaro.fr/societes/2011/02/14/04015-20110214ARTFIG00719-stephen-elop-nokia-va-recevoir-plusieurs-milliards-de-dollars-de-microsoft.php sorry french interview of elop Feb 16 07:10:57 heh Feb 16 07:14:04 Stskeeps: funny no? i think it"s not true. i think they will leave meego. Feb 16 07:14:33 i'm not seeing any signs of them leaving meego totally Feb 16 07:15:22 lol "On the one hand, we will buy Microsoft's Windows operating system Phone for our future smartphones. This allows us to reduce our investment in research and development. We will reduce our operational expenses. On the other, Microsoft will give us a lot of cash. This amount is counted in billions of dollars." google translate Feb 16 07:16:40 niala1: el reg reported more accurately on that, I'll look for the url; and let that be the only time I dip in the subject and derail the channel discussion Feb 16 07:17:08 http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/02/14/nokia_mwc_investor_assurances/ Feb 16 07:21:33 "Microsoft will give us a lot of cash", or a lot of cash equivalent (such as software/developer resources, .net ecosystem, reference hardware devices), all looks good on paper but not clear what "Nokia spice" will make this attempt a success Feb 16 07:21:43 let's take it to the bar, guys :) Feb 16 07:21:57 please Feb 16 07:22:52 go to work have a nice day Feb 16 07:34:38 do we keep track of regressions over time? Feb 16 07:35:00 better as a QA question, but we do have [REG] tags Feb 16 07:35:03 it looks like there have been some regressions in the UI part of handset since I last saw it a couple of months ago. Feb 16 07:35:16 ok Feb 16 07:36:13 i tried the latest handset build on my n900.. :/ meh. Feb 16 07:36:18 anyway. Feb 16 07:36:36 bugs are more than welcome Feb 16 07:36:47 and weekly is faairly broken due to a OBS fuckup :) Feb 16 07:38:34 ahh...what's the last non-fairly-broken snap? Feb 16 07:38:48 qa-reports is always good to help spot it Feb 16 07:38:55 ok Feb 16 07:39:03 really bad timing..ugh. Feb 16 07:56:05 Stskeeps: got a error number or anything from OBS? maybe I can do something to fix it. Feb 16 07:56:51 Dijit: nah, it's just a prjconf problem Feb 16 07:56:53 we identified it already Feb 16 07:57:00 okidoke np Feb 16 09:20:00 "It is shipping and there is momentum across multiple segments today, including automotive systems, netbooks, tablets, set-top boxes, and phones" What exactly is shipping? I assume the list of platforms is only reffering to the 'momentum', not the 'shipping'... Feb 16 09:20:58 And there's a tutorial for aava devices but I'm having a hard time finding any to buy Feb 16 10:31:14 * timeless pokes lbt Feb 16 10:54:39 is there a way to use the maemo flasher with libusb 0.1.3? Feb 16 10:55:02 bash`: wrong channel :P Feb 16 10:55:22 alterego: I'm trying to flash my n900 installing meego, then right channel :P Feb 16 10:56:05 bash`: still more of a maemo thing, thought #meego-arm would be better, anyhow, lets talk in #maemo :P Feb 16 11:04:13 Hi all Feb 16 11:08:03 Next conference is May 23-25 in SF, correct? Feb 16 11:08:58 Cool, who's going to pay for me to come? :D Feb 16 11:09:34 Jaffa: yes Feb 16 11:09:52 alterego: I'll book the holiday and worry about the cost of a UK->US flight later. Much later. Feb 16 11:10:15 :) Feb 16 11:10:32 Good plan, I'll note the dates in my calendar Feb 16 11:19:26 "If you're an OEM, you should choose a software partner the way you'd choose a spouse," said Mark Lee, CEO of Splashtop. "It should be someone you trust, someone who understands how you operate, and someone who can help you bring a beautiful product into the world." Feb 16 11:19:51 CosmoHill: Intel! Feb 16 11:19:59 Oh wait ... Feb 16 11:20:05 SplashTop have released an MeeGo based OS Feb 16 11:21:02 alterego: yes, Intel cos of MeeGo's AppUp store and cos of all the work they're doing on optimisation and minimal boot times Feb 16 11:23:20 oh hello, that wasn't the full quote from Mark Lee, there is more in their press release Feb 16 11:23:25 http://www.splashtop.com/press/splashtop-releases-meego-based-splashtop-os-for-oems Feb 16 11:25:12 CosmoHill: Intel are very good at software :) Feb 16 11:25:32 And I really enjoy reading their random programming papers. Feb 16 11:25:45 I'd imagine a lot of people in the world don't reliase that intel do software Feb 16 11:26:03 Yeah, well, probably only developers ;) Feb 16 11:27:54 Intel defiantly have a lot of product awareness in the general public cos they're logo and theme music is shown on every advert with an Intel processor Feb 16 11:28:11 even if they can't tell the difference between a Pentium and i7 Feb 16 11:28:31 CosmoHill: Which makes me want to punch my television. Feb 16 11:28:47 CosmoHill: Isn't an i7 that new version of the internet from Microsoft? Feb 16 11:29:19 if I say "yes", will there be any follow up questions? Feb 16 11:29:31 Hahah Feb 16 11:29:40 I see the adverts with all those people. Feb 16 11:29:59 "I'm a PC and windows was my idea?" Feb 16 11:30:27 if that was true I'd be punching a lot of people cos of vista Feb 16 11:30:40 CosmoHill: Yup Feb 16 11:31:01 Heh, well, it just shows MSs tactics, stealing others' ideas and code :P Feb 16 11:31:04 in one advert a woman stops here kids from using the laptop between set times Feb 16 11:31:16 a good parent would put a laptop out of reach Feb 16 11:31:54 Meh, dentist appointment in 40 mins Feb 16 11:31:56 Jaffa: have you seen the US adverts? Feb 16 11:32:26 CosmoHill: I assume they use the same ones with some re-dubs. Certainly the UK ones look like they're US shot. Feb 16 11:32:56 Jaffa: is that because US videos always seem better produced? :D Feb 16 11:33:03 they get a kid and an OAP to do the same task in the fastest time possible Feb 16 11:33:38 you can't show US adverts over here, they noticeably cheesing and american Feb 16 11:33:59 some adverts are european and the child sounds a lot like the woman... Feb 16 11:34:26 Are you saying European boys sound girly? :P Feb 16 11:34:46 only when you use the same voice actor in the sub Feb 16 11:34:47 dub* Feb 16 11:35:28 alterego: I'm going off grain & lighting. Though Episodes on BBC2 looks mostly US-shot/produced whereas it has been UK-shot/produced with just a few establishing shots in the US. Feb 16 11:36:29 Yeah, I dunno what it is, I guess TV just has a much larger budget in the US so they have much better equipment and higher production quality. Feb 16 11:36:46 Just compare Dr Who with House or something. Feb 16 11:36:48 alterego: Or they like the NTSC look and reproduce it even on modern equipment ;-) Feb 16 11:37:12 Good old "Never The Same Colour" :D Feb 16 11:37:14 I hate watching US cop shows, it leaves you wondering if they have an attention span Feb 16 11:37:16 Sorry Color :D Feb 16 11:37:24 Heh Feb 16 11:37:37 if you're gonna show a car chase at least do so in a linear fashion Feb 16 11:38:07 I don't think I've watched a Us cop show since miami vice Feb 16 11:38:29 Well, unless you count 24 Feb 16 11:38:36 I'm a big fan of 24 :D Feb 16 11:38:41 hi Feb 16 11:38:46 He Venemo Feb 16 11:38:49 hi Feb 16 11:38:51 Hey .. Feb 16 11:39:16 yes alterego, Venemo is a he Feb 16 11:39:27 CosmoHill, that's correct Feb 16 11:39:50 I dunno, I've heard stories! :P Feb 16 11:40:10 it's a weekday Feb 16 11:40:16 I need some help. I'd like to know how MnbToolbar finds out what panels are installed and what buttons to display Feb 16 11:40:55 only thing i can think of is a .desktop file in your home directory Feb 16 11:41:20 CosmoHill: if you can point me to the code that reads those supposed .desktop files, I'd be more than happy Feb 16 11:41:30 I can't, sorry Feb 16 11:41:43 CosmoHill: I would rather think that it's done through gconf Feb 16 11:43:59 CosmoHill: it's > 4000 loc, a bit hard to comprehend at first glance Feb 16 11:44:17 * CosmoHill stares blankly Feb 16 11:44:27 Venemo: search/find? :P Feb 16 11:44:33 alterego: doing that... Feb 16 11:44:42 alterego: but it's not very effective :) Feb 16 11:46:00 :P Feb 16 11:54:42 hi there Feb 16 11:55:15 do you know why is not possible to use the usb-host on n900 with meego? Feb 16 11:55:48 vanezy: the patches we use for usb host on maemo are not applied to a meego kernel. Feb 16 11:56:31 why not? and if you modify them in some way? Feb 16 11:56:36 maybe in theory is possible Feb 16 11:56:36 Also, meego likes to upstream patches, and it's extremely unlikely that kernel.org would accept the maemo usb host patches, because they're basically a series of hacks ;) Feb 16 11:56:47 god dammit Feb 16 11:56:48 :D Feb 16 11:56:56 why can't I paste something without word screwing up all the formating Feb 16 11:57:13 Oh it is possible, but like I told you. It would require you to build your own kernel as the N900 adaptation kernel wont have it. Feb 16 11:57:33 ok Feb 16 11:57:43 got it Feb 16 11:57:57 thank you for the explanations you were really usefull Feb 16 11:57:58 :) Feb 16 11:58:03 (alterego) Feb 16 11:58:05 So you, or someone else, would have to rebase the patchset to the latest kernel version and cross your fingers it works :P Feb 16 11:58:18 Also, there's no UI :) Feb 16 11:58:27 I don't mind of UI :P Feb 16 11:58:38 But you can compiile MohammadAG's UI as it's in Qt Feb 16 11:58:43 cool Feb 16 11:59:08 Anyhow, bbl :) Feb 16 11:59:27 bye :=) Feb 16 12:00:09 X-Fade: hi, I'd like to use OBS for newest versions of clutter/mx and dependencies, nick=pavlix Feb 16 12:07:09 pavlix: Your account should work now. Feb 16 12:07:30 X-Fade: thanks Feb 16 12:09:21 offtopic: 95% of all british 19-24's are either students or unemployed. Feb 16 12:09:56 ? Feb 16 12:10:21 so our president is right and we are the first world :P Feb 16 12:11:26 Dijit: Nice Feb 16 12:11:54 I was both before coming to finland Feb 16 12:11:57 xD Feb 16 12:12:12 foreverunemployed Feb 16 12:12:26 X-Fade: do you know about anyone already building clutter-related stuff? quick-searching did not work for me Feb 16 12:12:48 s/did not work/did not give any results/ Feb 16 12:12:50 pavlix meant: X-Fade: do you know about anyone already building clutter-related stuff? quick-searching did not give any results for me Feb 16 12:13:08 +1 Feb 16 12:13:32 pavlix: No, I haven't see anybody working on that. Feb 16 12:14:01 X-Fade: but it's still being used in meego 1.1, isn't it? Feb 16 12:15:36 pavlix: Yes, in netbook UX. Feb 16 12:16:49 X-Fade: sorry for newbie questions... but then I'd guess there should be these packages in the build service if only because of netbook UX, no? Feb 16 12:17:21 pavlix: Yes, but they are in Core obs. Feb 16 12:20:48 X-Fade: how do I get spec files from the core to use as reference? Feb 16 12:30:04 Netbook UX(intel hw?) uses Clutter for UI bling blign. How was Nokia meego about to use, QtQuick based bling bling. I know invehicle builders use QtQuick ui. Feb 16 12:30:15 *^^? Feb 16 12:30:53 MurmurOR: ERROR: failure to parse Feb 16 12:31:33 :) sorry about that, my multitasking broke runtime grammar. Feb 16 12:32:14 MurmurOR: was that related to my question? Feb 16 12:32:41 pavlix: just a spinoff, Clutter vs QtQuick adoption in meego scene. Feb 16 12:33:23 MurmurOR: clutter was mostly used for netbook ux which was already there when meego started Feb 16 12:33:26 long term is qt quick Feb 16 12:33:52 ok, Ive seen in-vehicle devices use QtQuick based UI bling bling. Feb 16 12:33:54 meego-ux uses clutter? Feb 16 12:34:07 netbook ux Feb 16 12:34:12 yes Feb 16 12:34:13 ok Feb 16 12:36:42 Nokia plan was to use QtQuick for cellphone UI, but time(and will?) run out + driven over by software politics. Feb 16 12:36:42 MurmurOR: nice where? Feb 16 12:37:04 that was mu question did Nokia was bettinig on QtQuick development timeline? Feb 16 12:37:14 \o/ omg bling bling Feb 16 12:37:41 I'm having trouble linking my private OBS to api.meego.com. Anyone had experience with that? Feb 16 12:37:44 * tybollt rolls eyes so hard they almost get stuck ina loop Feb 16 12:37:58 shahinghazinouri: how are you doing it specifically? Feb 16 12:39:10 Setup OBS -> fill in details for api.meego.com Feb 16 12:39:10 sivang: Integrated Computer Solutions uses Meego IVI v1.1 + QML + Qt/C++ Feb 16 12:39:28 tybollt, :P Feb 16 12:40:15 shahinghazinouri: ok, so, do you know osc meta prj? Feb 16 12:41:39 sivang: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJhLah_u_4U found it IVI meego demo, last year demo. Feb 16 12:42:03 Stskeeps, I think I know how to use it yes. Feb 16 12:42:29 I've been able to clone projects off api.meego.com with osc, but I don't know how to set up the repository link. Feb 16 12:42:45 shahinghazinouri: ok, so, you need to manually add a repository shahinghazinouri: or hack the "easy" repository page in obs Feb 16 12:44:23 Stskeeps: I've added this to Raw Config for a project: Feb 16 12:44:23 1.      Feb 16 12:44:23 2.        Feb 16 12:44:23 3.      Feb 16 12:44:45 you need and you need repository "standard" Feb 16 12:45:19 hey guys i wonder, how do we get a application in meego 1.2 release?

Feb 16 12:47:54 or keep it the same Feb 16 12:48:14 wiki.meego.com/Roadmap might help Feb 16 12:48:44 just talking about 1.1 :) Feb 16 12:48:55 featurezilla is live, so :) Feb 16 12:49:22 basically what we want is something like getting our app preeinstalled in a meego 1.2 release :D Feb 16 12:49:35 jbos: well, it's reference app then Feb 16 12:50:16 yes that is our goal (reference impl. for telepathy, voice call, celluar call, video, chat) Feb 16 12:51:26 but so there is this goal but basically zero idea what the qa / processes are... some people seems to have thought its all happing by some vodoo magic :D Feb 16 12:51:52 thanks so far Feb 16 12:53:28 jbos: meego-pm@ :) Feb 16 12:53:43 Still all voodoo to me Feb 16 12:54:11 Is there a roadmap for 3G video calling in meego/handset Feb 16 12:54:27 * Stskeeps twitches Feb 16 12:55:17 Heh Feb 16 12:55:24 What did I do? :P Feb 16 12:55:51 you asked about roadmaps for a dead OS...? Feb 16 12:55:54 * LjL ducks Feb 16 12:56:22 does a dead os have zombie processes? Feb 16 12:57:04 yes, because they are in a deadlock Feb 16 12:57:10 it's not over until the fat lady sings :P Feb 16 12:57:44 Even if I have to single handedly keep meego/handset alive, I will, because I believe in it that much :P Feb 16 12:58:13 There are other companies behind Meego than just Nokia, too. Feb 16 13:00:11 Who's Nokia? Feb 16 13:00:23 * alterego asks from his now unbranded N900 Feb 16 13:00:34 is it possible to boot the daily builds on n900 with uboot? Feb 16 13:00:38 ahiemstra: yes Feb 16 13:00:42 ok Feb 16 13:00:51 then I guess im doing something wrong :p Feb 16 13:00:55 ahiemstra: I do it, almost daily ;) Feb 16 13:02:32 any specific tricks i need to know of? because im getting a "wrong image format" error Feb 16 13:03:05 ahiemstra: are you typing "run mmcboot"? Feb 16 13:03:13 yeah Feb 16 13:03:38 don't Feb 16 13:03:49 just turn it on with the micro sd in and let it time out Feb 16 13:03:54 ah right, yeah, that seems to work Feb 16 13:03:58 It boots meego automatically. Feb 16 13:10:22 hmm, the daily image really seems far more responsive then the 1.1 image Feb 16 13:12:09 Nice new sgx drivers :) Feb 16 13:14:39 alterego: has the clock speed on the gpu been solved ? Feb 16 13:16:14 slaine: dunno, ask Stskeeps he's the man for that I believe. Feb 16 13:18:07 slaine: not yet, but it's faster Feb 16 13:18:48 Stskeeps: last I heard it was running about 80% iirc Feb 16 13:18:56 slaine: yeah, true Feb 16 13:19:01 Good enough for most Feb 16 13:22:21 hey slaine Feb 16 13:22:33 CosmoHill: howdy Feb 16 13:26:16 Where I get account to http://build.meego.com ?

Feb 16 13:34:48 that's what some Intel guys said would be the plan in December.. i don't know when (if not already that would be the case Feb 16 13:35:18 Btw, is GTK installed on Meego as standard? Feb 16 13:35:31 okay Feb 16 13:35:41 rmt2: not part of compliance so it doesn't -have- to be there Feb 16 13:35:47 rmt2: because of some stupid dependancies, it is Feb 16 13:35:47 :P Feb 16 13:36:20 so anyone know how to submit apps to the appup program? Feb 16 13:36:28 compile at obs or...? Feb 16 13:36:30 cobs Feb 16 13:36:47 or can you do local rpm build and just upload it? Feb 16 13:37:21 Stskeeps, Woo, Vala. ;-) Feb 16 13:43:06 villev: here's some info: http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/article/how-submit-application Feb 16 13:43:51 kyb3R: ah, ok... so I need "AppUp SDK" Feb 16 13:44:18 Is there some replication time for build.meego.com after you have done account to meego.com, it says: Authentication failed Feb 16 13:44:47 er, for which there is windows binary Feb 16 13:45:32 jsjarvi: meego.com accounts doesn't give automatic right to build.meego.com - file a bug here https://bugs.meego.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Build%20Service , "Build Service Accounts" and prod Ramez Hanna (i think that's the guy in Nokia) Feb 16 13:45:53 villev: i know :) Feb 16 13:46:11 rumor says linux version is somewhere.... Feb 16 13:46:29 X-Fade: ping Feb 16 13:47:57 Stskeeps, the handset images for N900 and pinetrail. pinetrail is 500mb, whilst n900 is 2gb. do you know where the extra comes from? Feb 16 13:48:11 jsjarvi: you then have to ask X-Fade or lbt for your account to be activated on the build, tell them your username Feb 16 13:48:23 CosmoHill: that's only for build.pub.meego.com Feb 16 13:48:30 lcuk: we're a full sd card image, pinetrail is a live image with a compressed 3000mb ext3fs in it too Feb 16 13:48:42 Stskeeps: ah, Feb 16 13:49:05 jsjarvi: sorry I misread what you wanted, I assumed you wanted access to build.pub.meego.com which is the commnity OBS Feb 16 13:49:14 Stskeeps, ahh, so its not missing data, its just where in the sequence the data gets decompressed and extracted. Feb 16 13:49:43 Stskeeps: should the n900 image compress well? Feb 16 13:49:54 timeless: it does Feb 16 13:51:00 bbl Feb 16 13:52:10 I'm not sure even myself where I need rights.... Looking for code for Settings and APN ui... Feb 16 13:57:15 jsjarvi: well one is for community members and the build.meego.com is only for trusted meego developers who need access to the core Feb 16 14:01:14 CosmoHill: yep, should not be problem when sitting inside Nokia... Only problem where to find proper documentation and code.... Feb 16 14:03:37 ah Feb 16 14:03:44 in that case I have no idea who you need to talk to Feb 16 14:04:05 X-Fade might be able to point you towards the right person Feb 16 14:08:20 jsjarvi: finding proper documentation inside nokia? won't happen Feb 16 14:08:22 cyas Feb 16 14:08:43 jsjarvi: what kind of code do you seek? wikis.in/Webtools/MXR can be your friend Feb 16 14:09:21 timeless: you'd be surprised how important documentation is to our sysarchitect Feb 16 14:12:19 timeless: yep, MXR is good, but that link was going on some strange page... Feb 16 14:16:59 Dijit: i've dealt w/ them, i'm not surprised Feb 16 14:17:21 * timeless decides not to import Dijit 's vcard from the exchange server Feb 16 14:18:05 i was surprised (a while ago) at how much useless busywork they demanded of groups and how absolutely ineffective and otherwise useless they've been Feb 16 14:18:17 (at this point, i'm no longer surprised by such things) Feb 16 14:18:36 what did amuse me was how one external (to maemo-meego) team managed to steamroll them Feb 16 14:18:49 I'm on the exchange server Feb 16 14:18:55 yeah, i know Feb 16 14:19:00 ? Feb 16 14:19:01 0_o Feb 16 14:19:03 i looked you up before answering Feb 16 14:19:08 haha really? Feb 16 14:19:13 what does it say? Feb 16 14:19:24 n900 has MfE ... Feb 16 14:20:08 just your email address + job title Feb 16 14:20:55 anyway, the microb browser was required to have many many pages and charts for that team Feb 16 14:21:10 but another team basically wrote a 2-3 page document which said "if you want to know how a browser works, read wikipedia" Feb 16 14:22:08 it was a nice way to show the whole group the finger Feb 16 15:13:28 timeless, Festivus airing of grievances? Feb 16 15:18:11 timeless_xchat: heh Feb 16 15:20:43 timeless_xchat: mxr now shows nginx without a backend? :) Feb 16 15:21:25 Hello! I need your help Feb 16 15:21:58 I am using Ubuntu 10.04.

Feb 16 15:35:49 you just thought before this was Ubuntu :P Feb 16 15:36:00 If one might ask, what made you think this was Android related? :) Feb 16 15:36:10 Idris: better mobile OSs ? Feb 16 15:36:12 I'm terribly sorry. I did a mistake... Feb 16 15:36:18 ;) Feb 16 15:36:35 No problem, it happens :) Just wondering what led you to think that :) Feb 16 15:36:40 aw Feb 16 15:45:26 How is the performance of Meego on N900, is it laggy or runs smooth over it? Feb 16 15:45:44 could be better Feb 16 15:47:01 means currently not smooth Stskeeps Feb 16 15:47:23 it's not quite there yet, no Feb 16 15:47:27 but a lot of things being improved Feb 16 15:48:03 the performance of current nighlty/weekly is already quite improved over 1.1 Feb 16 15:48:05 okay Feb 16 15:48:47 ahiemstra: just wait for the hardfp images.. improves fps like 20-30fps Feb 16 15:49:06 nice :) Feb 16 15:49:23 Stskeeps, what are the harpfp images waiting for? Feb 16 15:49:35 * ahiemstra has a feeling 1.2 might actually be usable Feb 16 15:49:41 lcuk: OBS scheduler.. Feb 16 15:49:41 :P Feb 16 16:00:13 ahiemstra: from where can I get this 'Nightly/ Weekly' dumps Feb 16 16:00:26 abhy: check the wiki Feb 16 16:00:46 okay they must be under betas then Feb 16 16:01:11 the meego on n900 page has links Feb 16 16:03:15 This one: http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot Feb 16 16:03:26 http://download.meego.com/testing-daily/builds/trunk/ Feb 16 16:03:34 daily testing images for variants is there Feb 16 16:04:40 please don't use those unless you're QA'ing or developing the actual images, there's limited bandwidth there. Feb 16 16:04:52 weekly images == what people should use Feb 16 16:05:25 then paste better specific links Feb 16 16:05:55 he was asking about nightly/weekly - the link I offered was a nightly Feb 16 16:05:59 err daily Feb 16 16:06:26 okay.. thanks.. atleast I'm getting an idea how thinks are going Feb 16 16:06:39 lcuk: no, it's even worse, it's daily-testing repo Feb 16 16:06:39 :P Feb 16 16:06:40 then where can I have weekly ones Feb 16 16:07:05 stable ones Feb 16 16:07:06 repo.meego.com has them Feb 16 16:07:13 okay Feb 16 16:07:59 Stskeeps, all the build folders contain a readme pointing to another place Feb 16 16:08:08 ( http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.0.99/README ) Feb 16 16:08:25 we are moving our old builds today Feb 16 16:08:34 ahh inside http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.1.90/ Feb 16 16:08:38 http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/trunk/1.1.90.3.20110215.10/ Feb 16 16:08:41 anything more than 2 months old is being moved to an archive Feb 16 16:08:44 yes, it was announced on meego-releases Feb 16 16:08:49 the new stuff should still be there Feb 16 16:09:04 and good morning DawnFoster :) Feb 16 16:09:17 evening stskeeps Feb 16 16:09:26 \o DawnFoster Feb 16 16:09:33 Stskeeps: wait... there's a meego-releases ML, too? Feb 16 16:09:50 gabrbedd: for daily work, yeah Feb 16 16:09:53 lists.meego.com Feb 16 16:09:56 it's not even secret Feb 16 16:10:12 * gabrbedd can't keep up... Feb 16 16:10:28 sign of a big project Feb 16 16:10:56 meego-releases is really only useful for people working on daily builds or the people doing the releases Feb 16 16:11:30 we should really have something like a announce list for downstream.. Feb 16 16:11:42 ie, "customers" of the platform, when repo urls change, etc Feb 16 16:12:19 * Stskeeps continues browsing new meego videos Feb 16 16:12:23 we do have meego-announce, but it's only used for major release announcements and updates to major releases (1 post a month) Feb 16 16:12:56 DawnFoster, Stskeeps: Thanks. Looks like I need to join another ML or 3. :-p Feb 16 16:15:09 Stskeeps, I like the one with all the handwritten stuff, it tickled me for obvious reasons. perhaps the real OS will catch up with marketing soon :P Feb 16 16:18:02 There are two for N900: N900-devel/ and N900/, http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/trunk/1.1.90.3.20110215.10/handset/images/ Feb 16 16:18:10 what is the difference among them Feb 16 16:18:14 abhy: -devel requires a 8gb image Feb 16 16:18:18 er, sd Feb 16 16:18:21 just get n900/ Feb 16 16:18:34 and whats there in 8gb one Feb 16 16:18:43 space? Feb 16 16:18:47 :) Feb 16 16:18:54 I mean what contents Feb 16 16:18:59 extra packed Feb 16 16:19:01 :) Feb 16 16:19:41 no, it just comes with bigger space, really Feb 16 16:19:42 :P Feb 16 16:20:23 So if I go with the above link it will be stable, right? Sorry for so many questions... just trying to know Meego :) Feb 16 16:20:38 you're getting a development snapshot Feb 16 16:20:39 :P Feb 16 16:21:28 Stskeeps, the -devel fitted on my 4gb each time I have tried Feb 16 16:21:31 hmm... then what do you recommend... simply go with the official 1.1 release Feb 16 16:21:40 mostly on days when there is no regular n900 image Feb 16 16:21:41 abhy: you want to develop, right? Feb 16 16:21:50 applications Feb 16 16:21:58 not OS Meego Feb 16 16:22:05 right Feb 16 16:22:18 then weekly should be ok Feb 16 16:22:56 can you please provide me the exact link, I'm not able to differentiate which one is Weekly Feb 16 16:23:08 as they have released on so many dates Feb 16 16:27:04 hiiii friends Feb 16 16:27:27 hi Feb 16 16:27:51 how are you ? @ stskeeps Feb 16 16:27:56 i'm alright Feb 16 16:28:20 where are you from?? @ stskeeps Feb 16 16:28:27 Stskeeps: Can you please give me a weekly link Feb 16 16:28:35 The3211: my sofa :) Feb 16 16:28:55 abhy: http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/trunk/1.1.90.3.20110215.10/handset/images/meego-handset-armv7l-n900/ Feb 16 16:28:58 :-) Feb 16 16:29:32 what's your age ? @stskeeps Feb 16 16:29:52 The3211: you're asking a lot of questions :) so what brings you here? Feb 16 16:30:04 :) Feb 16 16:30:07 Thanks Feb 16 16:30:24 nothing... :-D Feb 16 16:34:27 * Stskeeps ponders idly what went wrong at appup lab at MWC since people are being angry on twitter Feb 16 16:36:17 ah, it was full Feb 16 16:36:23 gadget giveaway syndrome.. Feb 16 16:50:07 http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2011/02/hands-on-with-intels-meego-tablet-ui-good-ideas-rough-edges.ars <- thank god for an unbiased review Feb 16 16:51:21 Stskeeps, yeah, that needs to end. Feb 16 16:52:59 Give a dozen employees 20 devices a piece and let them hand them out to people they talk to. Feb 16 16:54:28 GAN900: i kinda liked maclaver's way, yeah - running around with n900 boxes Feb 16 16:55:03 have you got a usable meego handset ui on these n900s? Feb 16 16:55:09 Will make people prone to harassing people with devices, but at least they'll still have to work for it. Feb 16 16:55:41 Stskeeps: Hehe, yes, that was pretty funky :) Not only did a lot get handed out, but lots of talking and such happened as well :) Feb 16 16:56:42 RST38h: usable? hah Feb 16 16:56:42 :P Feb 16 16:56:54 Then there is no point handing it out. Feb 16 16:57:07 (i'm kidding, sort of..) Feb 16 16:57:23 guys!! meego seems to be promising. sadly i have an android.. Feb 16 16:57:41 while meego.com has netbook and handset versions available Feb 16 16:57:47 what is core software Feb 16 16:57:53 how is meego organised? Feb 16 16:58:02 Thou shalt smite the evil robot before it spawns Feb 16 16:58:19 is it yet another linux distribution targeting to be platform independent or something else.?? Feb 16 16:58:36 idlecool: The details are described at meego.com Feb 16 16:59:06 Please, head to meego.com to read about Meego architecture and organizational details. Thanks. Feb 16 16:59:42 RST38h, tnx :) Feb 16 17:03:20 nedrichards: cool work on tablet UX, if you were involved obviously :) Feb 16 17:03:58 Stskeeps: do you see a photo of my cat in the default backgrounds? If you do, I was involved in it. Feb 16 17:04:07 nedrichards: hehe ;) Feb 16 17:05:18 so are kittens.ogv yours? Feb 16 17:05:23 from the sample media set Feb 16 17:06:13 nope, hbons found those a few years ago Feb 16 17:06:24 lily.jpg is my sisters cat though Feb 16 17:07:32 hehe Feb 16 17:19:01 Stskeeps: I read the review you linked Feb 16 17:19:22 Stskeeps: "the earliest developers to publish MeeGo software in Intel's AppUp store will be able to win cash prizes." Feb 16 17:19:35 Stskeeps: so where's some clue about how to publish in the AppUp store? Feb 16 17:20:45 Venemo: Sure thing: http://appdeveloper.intel.com/ :) Feb 16 17:21:02 thx leinir Feb 16 17:24:58 oh great, yet another SDK Feb 16 17:28:50 oh i see, it's just for store integration Feb 16 17:28:57 not a complete OS SDK Feb 16 17:33:12 it's an msi for the meego appup SDK Feb 16 17:33:16 because, well Feb 16 17:33:21 obviously any REAL software developer would be using Windows Feb 16 17:33:26 *rolls-eyes* Feb 16 17:33:29 I swear... Feb 16 17:34:25 there is an installer for linux, except that my "distribution version is not supported yet" Feb 16 17:36:40 what's so special about an application store that you need an sdk for it anyway? Feb 16 17:37:05 it seems to have some kind of simple DRM Feb 16 17:37:18 ie every time you run the apps, they phone home to check you are authorized Feb 16 17:37:19 i was hoping to find out by looking at the SDK :P Feb 16 17:37:34 berndhs: :P Feb 16 17:38:05 ali1234: oh right Feb 16 17:38:06 Indeed, the AppUp SDK is only a sort of DRM. Feb 16 17:39:38 calling it drm is overkill, yes; it's just a single interface to check if authorized, and afiak is not tied in to, well, things we think of as drm Feb 16 17:39:50 more like a simple license manager, I believe Feb 16 17:40:02 hmm Feb 16 17:40:04 just because the DRM is crap does not mean it is not DRM :) Feb 16 17:40:18 * ahiemstra wonders if it is required to use that for AppUp Feb 16 17:40:31 well, it's Rights Management the way a Licence Manager is Feb 16 17:40:45 and it's also Digital Feb 16 17:40:50 you don't need to use the interface, it's optional (or so I've been told, don't consider that autoritative) Feb 16 17:41:42 ahiemstra: it is required... but I heard the requirement is waived for FLOSS apps. Feb 16 17:41:48 it says somewhere that only open source apps are excepted from this, i'm not sure that that means precisely Feb 16 17:42:03 gabrbedd: ah, that was my primary concern :) Feb 16 17:42:12 hmmm, okay, that seems odd Feb 16 17:42:47 if I offer a free app, I don't care if it's been purchased or not Feb 16 17:43:05 (I did say don't consider my answer authoritative :) Feb 16 17:43:07 open source doesn't mean free Feb 16 17:43:12 well, that was last I checked about 9mos ago. Since they weren't ready for Prime Time with MeeGo then... I moved on to other stuff. :-) Feb 16 17:43:48 I meant free = no charge, not oss Feb 16 17:43:57 berndhs: Yes, I know that... but but I figured the call was made by a PHB that doesn't know the difference. Feb 16 17:43:58 it means the DRM also contains a killswitch and intel don't want malware authors to get around that by just not using it Feb 16 17:44:00 right, that's what I meant as well :) Feb 16 17:44:11 open source however can be audited before it is put up Feb 16 17:44:42 this is the most logical explanation anyway Feb 16 17:47:03 ali1234: that sounds plausible, yes Feb 16 17:54:00 * javispedro thinks the themed tablet ux looks pretty cool Feb 16 17:54:39 what do you mean by 'themed'? Feb 16 17:56:16 the first one I saw kinda looked like a unthemed gtk+ app Feb 16 17:56:40 ah Feb 16 17:56:44 dunno if it was a theme or that someone had been playing with it Feb 16 17:56:58 you mean the first video they made? Feb 16 17:57:01 ie, long ago? Feb 16 17:57:11 notmart, the one I saw here Feb 16 17:57:29 ok Feb 16 17:58:04 uh? Feb 16 17:58:14 .oO(the first time I see xchats nick autocompletion trigger, and it does the wrong thing) Feb 16 17:58:25 notmart, sorry. Feb 16 17:58:47 javispedro: np :) Feb 16 17:58:50 javispedro, you mean how the apps currently look? Feb 16 17:59:03 (look kinda plain? ) Feb 16 18:01:42 xopts=-nocursor is needed for sure on the tablet images (not sure where i would report issues atm) Feb 16 18:02:09 tripz0: none of the ones that I can get to look plain. Feb 16 18:02:12 is this tablet ux available to the public? Feb 16 18:02:30 ali1234, there are public images, yeah Feb 16 18:02:40 ali1234: it's downloadable and supposedly we'll get source at some point Feb 16 18:02:47 cool, i'll download it later than Feb 16 18:03:15 seemingly intel advertised free s10-3ts on their mwc appup event, so they got like 400 registrations in a few seconds after some local tweeted it ;) Feb 16 18:03:17 i like it from technical pov, it being qml and using components Feb 16 18:03:35 (never understimate spaniards' desire for freebies =) ) Feb 16 18:03:38 javispedro: quite possibly it was an unthemed gtk app Feb 16 18:03:43 and the fact it doesn't use duihome Feb 16 18:03:43 :P Feb 16 18:03:57 Stskeeps, lol Feb 16 18:04:05 no love for duihome eh? Feb 16 18:04:16 the exopc itself also looks cool :) Feb 16 18:04:22 for the new one though, nearly everything is done in qml, which shows Feb 16 18:04:35 javispedro, it's not as cool when you use it... the hw def has some bugs Feb 16 18:04:48 but its decent for the most part Feb 16 18:04:52 like the lack of a front button... Feb 16 18:05:22 yeh that and the wifi radio seems buggy, bt doesn't work (possible driver issue there), the TS is flakey sometimes... Feb 16 18:05:37 is it the same as the one we saw last year? cos that one looked really good Feb 16 18:05:41 I do hope they remove the need for the hardware button at some point though Feb 16 18:05:59 ali1234, it's the one from last years computex much improved and more real Feb 16 18:06:13 ali1234: same as the wetab hw seemingly Feb 16 18:06:28 oh, you mean the hw? Feb 16 18:06:35 yeh, it's the wetab hw Feb 16 18:07:32 from a purely UI point of view.. is it just me or does the s10-3t screen tear when panning the main screen Feb 16 18:07:35 ? Feb 16 18:07:40 ExoPC and WeTab aren't quite the same. ExoPC has ath9k, for example, while WeTab has ath3k IIRC. Feb 16 18:07:45 it probably tears Feb 16 18:07:57 at least my eyes can't follow, which isn't always a good thing :P Feb 16 18:08:27 there's def some performance stuff we need to do to the UI Feb 16 18:08:56 if its tearing it means that the performance is too good though Feb 16 18:08:58 provided it gets submitted to meego.com, we can probably help giving a hw agnostic view from seeing how it runs on ARM :P Feb 16 18:09:28 +1 for a cool ui though Feb 16 18:09:36 yeah Feb 16 18:10:17 Stskeeps: What do you mean by "tear" ? Feb 16 18:10:33 tearing effect? Feb 16 18:10:40 lack of vsync? Feb 16 18:10:57 yeah, sounds like it Feb 16 18:11:24 Venemo_N900: Thanks. Found a wikipedia article. Feb 16 18:13:36 gabrbedd: basically it happens when the sw wants to refresh the screen more frequently than the screen's refresh rate would allow Feb 16 18:15:01 Venemo_N900: Thanks. I have an S10-3t sitting here, so I was seeing if I saw the same thing as Stskeeps. I'm running Handset UX ATM, and I don't see any tearing. (...but I think they were talking about the Intel Tablet UX) Feb 16 18:15:24 mhm Feb 16 18:15:26 ok Feb 16 18:15:45 gabrbedd: try move screen side to side (panels view Feb 16 18:16:12 i don't see tearing on this exopc Feb 16 18:17:51 Stskeeps: Nope, I don't see tearing. Neither when viewing app icons nor when switching between running apps. Feb 16 18:18:39 * gabrbedd is using Handset UX similar to build 1.1.90.20110201 Feb 16 18:18:49 Has anyone run the IVI image on the Pinetrail flavor of Atom rather than Russellville? I'd like to try IVI on ExoPC and WeTab. Feb 16 18:19:56 Alison_Chaiken: I tried it the other day. The daily IVI build failed at boot (didn't start X or something). The 1.1 release worked... except that it seemed the mouse was mapped up-side down on my ideapad. Feb 16 18:20:53 Alison_Chaiken: That is, both the mouse and the touch screen were weird... and I think up-side down. Feb 16 18:21:37 Thanks gabrbedd. Did you use 1.1 rather than the 1.1.1? Sounds like the differences are mostly Russellville-specific patches. Maybe I should try both as live-boots before I install one. Feb 16 18:22:41 gabrbedd, speaking of not starting X on IVI, there's been some discussion of using "duihome -software" rather than default "duihome." Feb 16 18:22:44 Alison_Chaiken: I tried meego-ivi-ia32-noemgd-1.1.img Feb 16 18:24:07 Alison_Chaiken: I seem to recall that when I checked logs, it looked like Xorg started... but I still had a black screen. I can't remember if I could even get to a virtual terminal. I didn't report it because I didn't want to have to follow up on the bug. Feb 16 18:25:42 If you're going to pursue IVI more, I'd read the "EGL issues with latest images" thread on the meego-ivi list. Thanks for sharing your experience. Feb 16 18:26:37 Alison_Chaiken: Naw, I was just curious. However, I'm having EGL troubles on Handset... so I'll check it out. Feb 16 18:28:22 Might try "duihome -software" just for the heck of it. That bypasses the GPU in case the driver is having a problem. Or I guess you could "modprobe -r" the GPU driver for good measure. Feb 16 18:30:15 Alison_Chaiken: Well, in my case it's just one specific app. Everything else looks fine. Feb 16 18:48:28 i meant this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4vv7yFaqxw Feb 16 19:17:13 ali1234, yeh, it's a more real version of that demo Feb 16 19:32:56 hi there Feb 16 19:33:16 hi Feb 16 19:33:29 next time someone comes with Nokia specific questions or comments off-topic here, please send them to http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=2719 Feb 16 19:34:20 MeeGoBot: nokia-strategy is please see http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=2719 Feb 16 19:34:21 auke: ok Feb 16 19:34:26 qgil: +1 Feb 16 19:34:51 wow, this MeeGoBot is really smart Feb 16 19:35:22 qgil: yeah but only auke knows how to use it Feb 16 19:35:27 hahaha Feb 16 19:35:39 MeeGoBot: qgil is awesome Feb 16 19:35:41 auke: ok Feb 16 19:35:42 wow, this auke is really smart Feb 16 19:36:11 knows how to use infobot? :) Feb 16 19:36:14 ~qgil Feb 16 19:36:29 MeeGoBot: nokia-strategy? Feb 16 19:36:30 Stskeeps: nokia-strategy is please see http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=2719 Feb 16 19:36:38 MeeGoBot: qgil? Feb 16 19:36:39 ah, i'm smart too Feb 16 19:36:40 CosmoHill: everyone knows that! qgil is awesome Feb 16 19:36:40 ;) Feb 16 19:36:44 ah ha! Feb 16 19:36:46 :) Feb 16 19:36:55 haha :) Feb 16 19:37:42 ok, now I know what to type whenever the ego is low :) Feb 16 19:38:43 nokia-strategy?:) Feb 16 19:39:24 that post reminds me of the message from nokia when they restructured symbian last year Feb 16 19:39:25 he he Feb 16 19:39:34 ie it says absolutely nothing Feb 16 19:40:04 ali1234: go tell this there, and we can discuss there. that's the point Feb 16 19:40:23 ali1234: ask there for the answers you are missing etc Feb 16 19:42:49 in general, "management" usually has an easier time answering specific questions, than ones in the line of "WTF?" Feb 16 19:43:02 so, go and ask specific questions. Feb 16 19:44:17 MeeGoBot: auke? Feb 16 19:44:18 CosmoHill: auke is really good at kicking people :) Feb 16 19:44:22 oh crap Feb 16 19:46:26 does anyone have that quote where they say "symbian will continue to be available under an open licence model (to be defined later)" Feb 16 19:46:48 hahahaha Feb 16 19:47:05 i remember reading or hearing it somewhere but now i can't find it Feb 16 19:49:27 http://www.itproportal.com/2010/11/29/symbian-foundation-close-its-open-source-code-websites/ Feb 16 19:49:41 > The platform will still remain open source, although the move is considered by many to be the beginning of the end for the Symbian OS. Feb 16 19:50:16 > “We are working hard to make sure that most of the content accessible through web services (such as the source code, kits, wiki, bug database, reference documentation and Symbian Ideas) is available in some form, most likely on a DVD or USB hard drive upon request to the Symbian Foundation,” the Foundation said. Feb 16 19:50:49 the reason you can't find it is that it was probably on http://developer.symbian.org/wiki/Symbian_Foundation_web_sites_to_shut_down Feb 16 19:50:57 which is of course not reachable Feb 16 19:51:10 "The Symbian Foundation leadership team will work together with Nokia to ensure that the reduction in operations of the foundation will bring as little disruption to the ecosystem as possible. Further details of this process will be shared at a later date." Feb 16 19:51:16 from symbian.org front page Feb 16 19:53:10 ali1234: "very" interesting - I still fail to see the connection with my post (MeeGo & Qt source code is available, used by many, from many parties, forkable, modular, etc) but if you still want to discuss about Nokia specific stuff you are welcome in that thread Feb 16 19:54:00 qgil: well you also talk about how "There are still plenty of details to be confirmed or even defined" with no indication of when that might happen, or who is going to do it Feb 16 19:54:29 ali1234: because this is all I know myself - an alternative would be not saying anything until there is a fact confirmed by someone Feb 16 19:54:44 if not you, then who? Feb 16 19:55:18 ali1234: maybe I should scan my pay slip and send it to you... Feb 16 19:57:03 it's always disappointing to find out that qgil does not know everything, and more, and in advance, and that he's human! ;-) Feb 16 19:57:08 qgil: I think ali1234 only takes cash. Feb 16 19:57:26 ali1234: this is because things are still being decided as we speak. Feb 16 19:58:32 do me a favor, all: use that thread and leave #meego out of the Nokia internals - thank you! Feb 16 20:15:57 what's the difference between Intel's 1.2 http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/meego-sdk-suite and the SDK's available from MeeGo.com ... also why does intel point to http://www.forum.nokia.com/Develop/Qt/Tools/ and how is that different from the MeeGo Qt tools? Feb 16 20:16:17 npm: the appup sdk is only for the appup api Feb 16 20:16:25 not for making the whole apps Feb 16 20:16:27 thats different Feb 16 20:16:31 you add it on to whatever you are using Feb 16 20:17:37 there's a separate appup sdk. this one http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/articles/building-meego-application-appup-using-linux-development-environment Feb 16 20:17:47 see "Install the MeeGo SDK for Linux" Feb 16 20:18:37 which points back to http://www.meego.com/ "For detailed information on installing MeeGo SDK for Linux, consult ..." Feb 16 20:24:12 hey boy i have a question --> Feb 16 20:24:41 the question is... Feb 16 20:24:52 Qt still suport by Nokia Feb 16 20:25:03 must: yes, as far as has been announced so far Feb 16 20:25:32 Qt still suport by Nokia? Feb 16 20:25:57 must: Yes, yes, and again: YES! Feb 16 20:27:16 ok. Feb 16 20:36:28 ali1234: "MeeGo SDK installer for tablet" is what's installed by http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/meego-sdk-suite -- has nothing to do with AppUp store Feb 16 20:36:44 oh, i must have been on a different page then Feb 16 20:41:18 good day! if anyone doesn't know the site yet, enjoy these detailed N900 hw specifications: http://natisbad.org/N900/n900-commented-hardware-specs.html Feb 16 20:59:56 qgil: submitted my current elephant in the room, for good measure, even though i'm financed on that particular area, that's not why i'm asking - it's because there's an obvious vacuum created that might be harmful to the project in general to not have information in :) Feb 16 21:02:25 Stskeeps++ Feb 16 21:02:44 Stskeeps: where did you submit it? :) Feb 16 21:03:06 sivang: http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=2719 Feb 16 21:04:23 Also, more coherent with my blog post look out for Stephen as he talks about meego , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uglr-OkeMY . the word I find as another encouragement is "likely" "based off" etc. he talks about other options like HTML5, but with every option he mentions meego as the base. Feb 16 21:04:28 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uglr-OkeMY Feb 16 21:04:33 Stskeeps: the only elephant I see is texrat. What's your handle on the forum? Feb 16 21:04:52 Doh! Feb 16 21:04:58 Just saw the page two thing. Feb 16 21:05:14 * gabrbedd doesn't spend much time in forums. Feb 16 21:05:35 forums are bad mmmm'kay Feb 16 21:05:47 hena: heh Feb 16 21:06:05 hena: I have trouble with them as well, not sure why forums are better than mailing lists for some kind of discussions :) Feb 16 21:07:03 hena: I didn't say they're bad. Feb 16 21:07:15 somehow stuff gets out of hand so much easier in the web and the overhead of forums versus mailing lists is so much bigger :) Feb 16 21:08:04 * gabrbedd didn't say he likes them, either.... :-p Feb 16 21:08:05 but then again, forums reach more people and allow pictures and whatnot and all kinds of things Feb 16 21:08:07 it is much harder to search mailing list through google than forums :) Feb 16 21:08:18 hena: "superb UX" :-) Feb 16 21:08:26 * sivang opens thread. Feb 16 21:08:26 hehe Feb 16 21:09:17 like, i couldn't imagine seeing linux on a mailinglist Feb 16 21:09:19 sivang: Indeed. Feb 16 21:09:30 Stskeeps: look at the video, what ever he talks about he knows meego is going to be base and he admits this publically. Given qt must be funded nicely for at least 2 years for the transition, I think meego has bright future and is a matter of time before becomes prime time for NOkia *again*. Feb 16 21:09:45 but then again, my bmw discussions just wouldn't fit into mailing lists ever Feb 16 21:09:53 :) Feb 16 21:17:16 Stskeeps: oh, you talk about the architecture parity..... unrelated. Feb 16 21:17:20 * sivang hides Feb 16 21:19:54 elephant architecture party? Feb 16 21:20:36 heh Feb 16 21:37:48 is there a CDK for Tunnel Creek hardware? Feb 16 22:10:50 hello Feb 16 22:10:55 Can someone help me? Feb 16 22:11:07 I get "configuration file not found" when I attempt to boot from DVD Feb 16 22:11:08 hi nillerz Feb 16 22:11:13 hello pupnik Feb 16 22:12:20 should I just re-burn? Feb 16 22:12:50 nillerz: Where did the ISO come from? Feb 16 22:12:59 are there instructions for booting weekly/daily images on the N900? I get "VFS: Cannot open root device ... Please append a correct "root=" boot option ..." Feb 16 22:13:08 meego.com Feb 16 22:14:18 nillers: There's lots of iso's on meego.com. Can you please be more specific? Feb 16 22:14:56 Hey Feb 16 22:15:00 s/nillers/nillerz/ Feb 16 22:15:00 gabrbedd meant: nillerz: There's lots of iso's on meego.com. Can you please be more specific? Feb 16 22:15:01 meego-netbook-ia32-1.1 Feb 16 22:15:04 How can I close the settings window? Feb 16 22:16:06 also, I re-named the .img to .iso after using file to determine that it was an iso Feb 16 22:16:06 On a tablet that is. At the AppUp conference they showed us some gesture on the top-left corner, but if I use it I just see a header with an icon and the label "!! Settings" but after that the screen image is corrupted (all black and some green line) Feb 16 22:16:19 just to get it so ubuntu would burn it through the right-click menu Feb 16 22:16:24 RainCT, you launch the app switcher, long-tap on the settings icon, and click close Feb 16 22:16:57 RainCT, if you screen is corrupted, i'd try a reboot Feb 16 22:17:23 tripz0: If I hold on the settings icon I get some weird screen with lots of red and saying "!! MainPage", "qtn_sett_man_connections", "qtn_sett_man_phone", etc. Feb 16 22:17:25 also, why would you want to close settings. settings is clearly the best app ever Feb 16 22:17:37 :) Feb 16 22:17:51 yeh, your system sounds hosed Feb 16 22:17:54 reboot ftw Feb 16 22:18:00 nillerz: Just a guess... If you have a CD-R or CD-RW, I would use that instead of a DVD. Those are CD ISO's, and I don't know if they're compatible with DVD's. Feb 16 22:18:26 Well the file-size is too big to fit on a CD, I tried that first. It's over 800 megabytes Feb 16 22:19:17 nillerz: Hmmm... true. Most of us are installing with a flash drive. Do you have a 1 GB flash drive you can erase and use? Feb 16 22:19:29 this PC doesn't boot too well off of them Feb 16 22:19:37 It's hit or miss, mostly miss, and I've tried a few times Feb 16 22:19:59 the first time I tried meego it was off a flash drive but then after that it failed even after reformatting and putting meego on the flash drive again Feb 16 22:20:56 alright I'm re-burning at a lower speed Feb 16 22:21:26 Didn't work. Feb 16 22:22:24 yay my image finished copying. Feb 16 22:22:29 * sivang heads on to booting. Feb 16 22:23:28 sivang: oh right, i've got something for you Feb 16 22:23:57 timeless: ? :) Feb 16 22:24:06 timeless: shouldn't we be sleeping? Feb 16 22:24:10 :-p Feb 16 22:25:06 alright dun burning brb Feb 16 22:25:33 I'm trying to boot meego-handset-armv7l-n900-1.1.90.3.20110215.10-mmcblk0p.raw using the same procedure that I used for meego-handset-armv7l-n900-final-mod-1.1.0.0.20101101.3-mmcblk0p.raw without success. Is the image broken or do I need a different procedure? Feb 16 22:27:27 back so soon. Feb 16 22:27:43 no luck, I guess I *have* to keep trying usb-style Feb 16 22:28:39 hrm Feb 16 22:28:44 maemo flsher does not support 64bit Feb 16 22:28:54 my ubuntu desktop is 64bit Feb 16 22:37:27 nillerz: What kind of PC do you have? What's the processor and video card? Feb 16 22:37:50 Pentium processor, intel video card Feb 16 22:38:05 want an lspci readout? Feb 16 22:38:50 Pentium 4 ?

Feb 16 22:55:42 settings don't start Feb 16 22:59:23 settings don't start? Feb 16 22:59:34 in tablet? Feb 16 23:02:02 * javispedro tries to remember Feb 16 23:02:17 so should I dd the .iso file to a pendrive with an mbr, or without a mbr (supperfloppy style)? Feb 16 23:03:00 dd the img to the drive, not the partition Feb 16 23:03:17 thanks auke Feb 16 23:04:22 auke: what intel processors are supported?

Feb 16 23:47:09 SSSE3 Feb 16 23:47:29 that's it Feb 16 23:47:34 I mean how far into boot sequence do you think issues would hit Feb 16 23:47:42 is ssse3 used in the kernel?
