**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Nov 06 02:59:57 2010 Nov 06 12:14:33 Is there anybody here with rights on bugzilla to stop the bloody spammer making the rounds on there at the moment? Nov 06 12:14:42 sorry, trac Nov 06 12:16:13 leinir: wish I did, that shit is annoying Nov 06 12:16:45 very Nov 06 12:17:19 #openmoko-cdevel is already discussing who to wake Nov 06 12:17:22 which distro's trac are we talking about Nov 06 12:17:24 right, thanks :) Nov 06 12:17:26 shr? Nov 06 12:17:29 oh, nm then Nov 06 12:21:05 so, is http://www.aavamobile.com/ the unofficial heir of openmoko? Nov 06 12:28:58 hardly Nov 06 12:29:19 everyone who puts "first open mobile" on their website in 2010 immediately loses credibilitiy Nov 06 12:29:28 2nd, it's vapourware Nov 06 12:29:39 look they even postponed sdk to q1/2011 Nov 06 12:29:41 let alone hardware Nov 06 12:29:49 3rd, it's an atom Nov 06 12:29:51 *cough* Nov 06 12:30:06 4th, no UMTS Nov 06 12:32:05 mickeyl: very true. my eyebrow almost left my forehead when I saw "1st open mobile" Nov 06 12:32:35 what's an atom (he asked curiously)? Nov 06 12:32:57 badcloud: intel's mobile chip. Nov 06 12:32:58 atom? wannabe-embedded SoC Nov 06 12:33:05 ah Nov 06 12:33:31 but x86, that's gotta pack a huge punch Nov 06 12:35:26 even though the device looks heavier than a cinder block Nov 06 12:37:01 fun thing is... Nov 06 12:37:17 intel approach OM years ago to do an atom-based phone Nov 06 12:37:25 but they never got there act together with the CPU Nov 06 12:37:31 so the project didn't happen Nov 06 12:37:36 shame Nov 06 12:37:46 yeah Nov 06 12:38:00 StrongARM! Nov 06 12:38:06 (though they sold that) Nov 06 12:38:17 heh Nov 06 12:38:19 you see a pattern Nov 06 12:38:24 intel aquires arm technology Nov 06 12:38:28 sells it for a fortune Nov 06 12:38:35 then comes out with something "new" Nov 06 12:38:37 tadaaa Nov 06 12:38:43 haha Nov 06 12:39:11 nothing honest/decent left in the marketing biz Nov 06 12:39:33 "let's make a good, affordable product" Nov 06 12:40:02 feels like a thing of the past (but I might be overly pessimistic) Nov 06 12:40:36 nah, i think that hits it Nov 06 12:40:56 if only google would have put more pressure on hardware manufacturers Nov 06 12:41:01 then we had a plethora of open devices now Nov 06 12:41:01 iphone's heating up/exploding, shit cameras on phones Nov 06 12:41:02 it's a shame Nov 06 12:41:32 s/iphone's/iphones Nov 06 12:41:54 well Nov 06 12:41:57 can't complain much about the iphone Nov 06 12:42:10 I thought android's debut would raise the bar as far as hw Nov 06 12:42:10 now that i'm making a living from it ... Nov 06 12:42:23 heh, right, I can dig it Nov 06 12:42:23 yep Nov 06 12:42:34 nexusone is a joke Nov 06 12:42:38 our "superphone" Nov 06 12:42:39 * mickeyl chuckles Nov 06 12:43:00 the newer HTCs are quite decent Nov 06 12:43:02 at least those with real buttons Nov 06 12:43:57 I hope there is a nice open phone in a year or three when I'm looking for one. Nov 06 12:44:34 yeah Nov 06 12:44:39 lets see whether nokia survives Nov 06 12:44:46 * badcloud seconds that Nov 06 12:44:57 seems like they're in a slump right now Nov 06 12:45:01 yep Nov 06 12:45:08 Well - for modest values of open Nov 06 12:45:09 nokia and HP are the two bets now Nov 06 12:45:15 SpeedEvil: oh so true Nov 06 12:45:22 SpeedEvil: agree Nov 06 12:45:34 as far as sw Nov 06 12:46:05 has HP dipped into the android market yet? Nov 06 12:47:29 well, they're working on the next wave of WebOS devices Nov 06 12:47:53 and in contrast to other manufacturers they do try to focus a bit more Nov 06 12:51:01 My kindle is interesting. Nov 06 12:51:10 I do wish it was more open though. Nov 06 12:51:17 Another case of hardware limited by software. Nov 06 12:51:38 hmmm, gui looks decent Nov 06 12:51:38 what kind of software packaging system will they have (if at all)? Nov 06 12:51:59 you mean kindle? Nov 06 12:52:07 no, webos Nov 06 12:52:08 There is no software other than builtin. Nov 06 12:52:09 ah Nov 06 12:52:15 webos has ipkg Nov 06 12:52:20 as it's built on Nov 06 12:52:23 *drumroll* Nov 06 12:52:24 OpenEmbedded Nov 06 12:52:28 :D Nov 06 12:52:52 meh Nov 06 12:53:11 now the sad part is they didn't release their recipes :( Nov 06 12:53:21 so have fun recreating everything they did from scratch Nov 06 12:53:37 NOTE: no idea whether HP changes that. Palm at least did like i said Nov 06 12:53:43 badcloud: 'shit cameras' -> heh, main property of camera is good lens (together with sensor size). i think it's impossible to place lightweight, small and cheap lens. Nov 06 12:54:43 gena2x: right. I never was really convinced with cellphones trying to mate with cameras Nov 06 12:54:55 still doesn't feel right Nov 06 12:55:07 still one link in the evolutionary chain missing Nov 06 12:55:20 gena2x: My n900 has a decent camera. But the lens limits the sensor to 2.5MP or so Nov 06 12:55:29 Simply due to its diameter Nov 06 12:56:14 http://www.flickr.com/photos/14560445@N08/4687082204/ Nov 06 12:56:16 the day digital cams get super small is the day they'll start designing better cell phone cams Nov 06 12:56:37 Designing is not especially hard. Nov 06 12:57:04 SpeedEvil: nice photo. great detail, but it's not vivid Nov 06 12:57:30 feels a bit lifeless (and I'm sure it's not your photography skills that are at fault) Nov 06 12:57:58 It was an off-hand snap. Nov 06 12:58:06 I'm quite suprised it came out that well Nov 06 12:58:07 ah Nov 06 12:58:15 The exposure is screwed Nov 06 12:58:29 and I think there may be some wierd not enough IR filter going on there too Nov 06 12:59:00 With the tech in the n900 camera, it would be fairly simple to make a ~20MP camera in a 15mm cube. Nov 06 12:59:15 It would probably only be 15 'real' megapixels. Nov 06 12:59:32 SpeedEvil: nice photo. i see almost no noise even in shadows. Nov 06 13:00:01 i'm fairly satisfied with the iphone4 cam, if you have enough light, it's ok Nov 06 13:00:06 But a 15mm cube, and the extra $40 or so it would cost in volume, and the volume and integration constraints... Nov 06 13:00:09 naturally i don't use it for real photos Nov 06 13:01:26 On the open-source thing - there is a camera program for the n900 that actually gives OK fairly low light pictures, with real exposiures up to a second. Nov 06 13:01:27 badcloud: vivid/not vivid -> this is job of photoshop, the colors seem fine Nov 06 13:01:48 yeah - it might be white balance too - I haven't really looked at it. Nov 06 13:02:15 badcloud: anyway sensor never 'shots' phone in the way eye see it Nov 06 13:02:34 s/phone/image/ Nov 06 13:02:34 gena2x meant: badcloud: anyway sensor never 'shots' image in the way eye see it Nov 06 13:03:05 SpeedEvil: _second_??? Nov 06 13:03:15 gena2x: yes Nov 06 13:03:54 SpeedEvil: second from hands? i bet it has no 'hardware' compensation. so it is pure software deal. interesting. Nov 06 13:03:55 gena2x: It's nothing compared to proper cameras, I agree. Nov 06 13:04:09 no - you have to actually hold it still by some means. Nov 06 13:06:15 ah, if it is just laid down, where is no diff 1/100 or 1 second or 30. Nov 06 13:06:33 expect that object must be more static Nov 06 13:07:32 i had big problems with finding even much bigger in size usb camera Nov 06 13:07:51 spent much time and not really happy result. Nov 06 13:07:56 *with Nov 06 13:08:07 much bigger size? Nov 06 13:08:22 yeah - there are no really good webcams that are not insanely priced. Nov 06 13:08:50 And most basic entry-level cameras that are oodles better than webcams can't be controlled over USB Nov 06 13:08:52 i mean that it is easy to put bigger lens and sensor to usb cameras (in comparison to handheld devices). Nov 06 13:09:46 Well - no. Nov 06 13:09:51 The problem is the sensor size. Nov 06 13:10:25 If you have a 2mm sensor, you're not putting a 28mm focal length lens from a 'proper' camera on it without getting utterly insane zoom. Nov 06 13:11:31 i mean obvious things - where is no such strong limit imposed by frame in usb cams, as it is in handhelds. Nov 06 13:11:52 Sorry - not following what you're trying to say. Nov 06 14:20:46 I got an android phone :-( Nov 06 14:21:30 CVirus: and you're not happy with it? Nov 06 14:21:42 badcloud: I'm utterly happy with it Nov 06 14:21:48 but I wish OpenMoko was alive Nov 06 14:22:13 CVirus: how is it dead? Nov 06 14:22:49 lindi-: took the words out of my mouth Nov 06 14:23:06 I haven't been following much lately Nov 06 14:23:16 but I remember there were no future hardware versions of the device Nov 06 14:23:28 it is a completely community project now .. right ? Nov 06 14:23:43 CVirus: what is exactly? Nov 06 14:23:48 the freerunner Nov 06 14:24:37 CVirus: I think you can still buy one Nov 06 14:30:18 lindi-: I'm thinking CVirus, like many users, want newer hw Nov 06 14:30:18 s/want/wants Nov 06 14:31:05 lindi-: I'm thinking CVirus, like many users, wants newer hw Nov 06 14:31:21 (might be late for the conversation since my connection keeps dying) Nov 06 14:31:25 I'm like many users who blames himself for not contributing to such an amazing project like OpenMoko Nov 06 14:31:55 CVirus: have you ever owned a fr/1973? Nov 06 14:32:35 nope Nov 06 14:33:05 oh Nov 06 14:55:23 CVirus: hey, recently freerunner got huge progress in terms of speed and stability. It became obvious (for me at least) that main problem of freerunner is not old hw, but bugs in sw. Nov 06 15:01:07 its still old hw als slow cpu etc Nov 06 15:13:08 i feel you guys are both right Nov 06 15:13:08 which sucks even more Nov 06 15:24:34 Defiant: heh, while researching hw ECC, i found this: http://www.friendlyarm.net/products/mini2440 Nov 06 15:25:03 Defiant: somehow this reminds me openmoko board, which seem FAR more advanced than device linked Nov 06 15:26:05 and somehow that device is still sold and bought and where is _active_ community of hackers around it Nov 06 15:26:37 es - similar hardware Nov 06 15:26:42 they even ported uboot to it, hacket it from beginning to end Nov 06 15:26:50 and feel good. Nov 06 15:27:00 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SamSung-S3C2440-ARM9-Mini2440-Board-3-5-TFT-LCD-128MB-/230509968366?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35ab76fbee Nov 06 15:27:01 also Nov 06 15:27:10 gena2x: In the company I currently program an arm7 @60Mhz, but it does not run a flow blown operation system with lots of apps like the freerunner Nov 06 15:27:56 and from what i see in recent distros the hw is not really slow Nov 06 15:28:14 really, no problems with slowness at all in qtmoko v28 for example Nov 06 15:28:33 yes. Nov 06 15:28:36 It's depressing. Nov 06 15:28:41 Though awesome. Nov 06 15:28:44 Defiant: 400mhz is more than enought to run full-blown off. Nov 06 15:28:50 s/off/os/ Nov 06 15:28:50 gena2x meant: Defiant: 400mhz is more than enought to run full-blown os. Nov 06 15:29:14 Think for a moment back when you had a (new) 200MHz desktop. Nov 06 15:29:16 Was it slow? Nov 06 15:29:32 And it probably had a screen of similar dimensions. Nov 06 15:30:19 Yes, it was slow Nov 06 15:30:20 also, after going a bit depper into development, i realise about power consumption that actually, it is _fixable_ in freerunner. and most of power consumption is NOT related to CPU Nov 06 15:30:46 Indeed. Nov 06 15:30:48 actually suspend time consits of suspend times of all other _hardware_ not cpu. Nov 06 15:31:21 so better power management will provide much better power consumption situation Nov 06 15:31:30 * SpeedEvil wishes he had a milion or two to do a nice open phone. Nov 06 15:32:36 so omap or s3c2440... yes, it is faster, but it should not be disaster. Nov 06 15:33:22 and yes, 400mhz should be more that enough to manage 640x480x16. Nov 06 15:34:24 if you install L2 cache of 8M to FR for example. it will lightning fast device. Nov 06 15:35:03 That would be really, really cunning. :) Nov 06 17:44:07 suvir: you also here? hehehe Nov 06 17:57:00 * DelphiWorld slaps suvir around a bit with a large trout Nov 06 18:33:57 hello Nov 06 18:34:11 guys can y tell me how to copy file on openmoko Nov 06 18:34:20 listonosz: openmoko distro? Nov 06 18:34:29 QtMoko Nov 06 18:34:40 I am login throw ssh Nov 06 18:34:54 listonosz: new to gnu/linux? Nov 06 18:35:02 ye Nov 06 18:35:05 command cp? Nov 06 18:35:09 listonosz: scp Nov 06 18:35:22 some example? Nov 06 18:35:41 listonosz: i just don't know where to put pictures in qtmoko Nov 06 18:35:54 mmm Nov 06 18:35:59 in home/root/ Nov 06 18:36:00 ? Nov 06 18:36:22 lindi-: but in general, you can do at host scp root@192.168.0.220:/ Nov 06 18:36:35 listonosz: ^^^ Nov 06 18:36:40 lindi-: sorry :) Nov 06 18:36:47 copying pictures as root? aiee... Nov 06 18:37:03 hi Nov 06 18:37:04 root on device! Nov 06 18:37:25 listonosz: where is 1000 ways to copy file to device Nov 06 18:37:34 listonosz: i prefer to use mc Nov 06 18:38:02 listonosz: you may use sshfs, some graphical stuff. you may install even ftp server to qtmoko Nov 06 18:38:14 my mc cann't see qtmoko Nov 06 18:38:25 and mc on qtmoko cann't see my pc Nov 06 18:38:25 :S Nov 06 18:38:51 listonosz: but you can ssh without problems? Nov 06 18:40:25 listonosz: also do apt-get install openssh-client on your qtmoko Nov 06 18:45:50 couldn't get local adress Nov 06 18:48:22 got it Nov 06 19:13:44 http://devi.openmoko.org/wiki/File_transfer Nov 06 19:15:47 what should I do with makefile Nov 06 19:16:17 rm it Nov 06 19:17:10 mm? Nov 06 19:18:58 ./Makefile 'make moko' Nov 06 19:19:03 ? Nov 06 19:29:00 omg why scp and sshfs not working Nov 06 19:32:20 lindi-: did you installed openssh-client in qtmoko? Nov 06 19:32:34 lindi-: !!! sorry again listonosz ^^^ Nov 06 19:32:45 ye Nov 06 19:33:02 what is error message? Nov 06 19:33:05 and command line? Nov 06 19:34:03 lindi-: i have to patch xchat to add dialog 'are you really sure to send this message'? :) Nov 06 19:34:20 ye but wich command scp? Nov 06 19:34:53 it cann't find local file Nov 06 19:36:23 can you ssh to your qtmoko and check 'which scp' Nov 06 19:37:15 /usr/bin/scp Nov 06 19:38:56 hm... so, where is your local file? Nov 06 19:39:33 * gena2x has no ideas, it should work! Nov 06 19:42:43 ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.220 port 22: No route to host Nov 06 19:42:44 lost connection Nov 06 19:43:10 scp /home/daniel/Pulpit/Save.BMP root@192.168.0.220:/home/ Nov 06 19:50:56 listonosz: and how do you ssh? Nov 06 19:51:25 neo:~# Nov 06 19:51:37 ssh root@192.168.0.202 Nov 06 19:51:58 so, replace 220 with 202 Nov 06 19:52:06 in your scp string Nov 06 19:52:27 i am using 192.168.1.5 so, i can't recall address...

Nov 06 20:23:30 mmm Nov 06 20:23:37 nothing about catalog in help Nov 06 20:34:14 can y advice me if I want to find background file in D it will be Nov 06 20:34:29 find -name *ground Nov 06 20:34:30 ? Nov 06 20:35:36 listonosz: i have no even small idea how to change background. probably, this belongs to theme, so you you should try to search for it in rootfs Nov 06 20:35:55 listonosz: we have 2 themes in qtmoko (change in settings/appearance) Nov 06 20:36:07 listonosz: you may try to search my theme name.
