**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Sep 05 02:59:58 2009 Sep 05 03:00:05 you can pass novaterm a string to help figure out which device you want to connect to Sep 05 03:00:23 castle = phone, qemu = emulator Sep 05 03:00:23 I bet that's it. I used: novacom -t open tty:// Sep 05 03:00:31 Yem. Emu. Sep 05 03:00:57 What's the connect string for the phone via USB? Sep 05 03:01:10 novacom -h to get instructions Sep 05 03:01:16 i think there may be a list argument ? Sep 05 03:01:21 to list which available connections there are Sep 05 03:01:28 that's a fairly sizable diff Sep 05 03:01:41 jauderho: looks like a lot of language stuff .. Sep 05 03:01:57 no that much lang stuff Sep 05 03:01:58 but indeed lots of changes for a simple 0.1 update Sep 05 03:02:07 more removing a lot of development code Sep 05 03:02:10 and test utils Sep 05 03:02:31 Only in 1.2.0-0830: /resources/webOS/nova-cust-image-castle.rootfs/etc/event.d/LunaDownloadMgr Sep 05 03:02:32 kind of wish they would leave that in or at least on the SDK side to test/learn Sep 05 03:05:13 there's plenty here to learn from, that's for sure Sep 05 03:05:44 Only in 1.2.0-0830: /resources/webOS/nova-cust-image-castle.rootfs/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.contacts/app/views/list/send-contact-popup.html - neat Sep 05 03:06:20 new app: Only in 1.2.0-0830: /resources/webOS/nova-cust-image-castle.rootfs/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.crotest - wonder what it does! Sep 05 03:06:29 hello everyone Sep 05 03:07:17 Wow. I have no clue how to novacom into the phone vs. the emu. -h doesn't give a useful list of devices. Sep 05 03:07:59 what does novacom -l show ? Sep 05 03:08:25 56073 75c15c06f5211ba794d6ec391f9b2b59649b7a94 tcp emulator Sep 05 03:09:16 so just the emulator ? Sep 05 03:09:17 no castle ? Sep 05 03:09:26 right. Sep 05 03:09:34 so you don't have the phone connected ? Sep 05 03:09:49 and in devmode ? Sep 05 03:10:16 I do have it connected and I think I put it in devmode. How can I check if it's in devmode? Sep 05 03:10:20 bpadalino: I'm running the crotest program now. It's letting you do automatic testing or manual testing of stuff Sep 05 03:10:34 MW, neat - what type of stuff ? Sep 05 03:10:49 "hardware buttons, Touch sensors, Screen, Audio,Power, GPS" Sep 05 03:10:56 robo, type the devmode code and see if ti says it's still in dev mode Sep 05 03:11:08 i am not sure if it's still upupdowndown or if it changed :( Sep 05 03:11:14 MW, neat! Sep 05 03:11:18 I just ran it with luna-send Sep 05 03:12:19 interesting there is a "Send Results" button Sep 05 03:12:38 It just said "The results were sent to Customer Service." Sep 05 03:12:44 Ah well Sep 05 03:12:49 Well, I'm still on 1.1.0 so devemode shouldn't have changed. I didn't know 1.2 was out Sep 05 03:12:54 http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Template:Tux what does the far right one look like without rolling over it. Sep 05 03:12:59 it isn't out for real - just leaked .. Sep 05 03:13:04 figured that Sep 05 03:13:27 ah Sep 05 03:15:58 I get to have some fun now :) Sep 05 03:16:12 It seems to be running a lot better in 1.2 but could be imagination Sep 05 03:16:21 Anyone here try out 1.2 & have any issues? Sep 05 03:16:25 phone looks like it got a lot of work as well ? Sep 05 03:16:35 MW, is there any big difference with the dialer ? Sep 05 03:16:36 no issues yet but I disabled the UpdateDaemon right away Sep 05 03:16:59 The devmode app shows a slider with the word ON visible, which I believe means I'm in devmode (those webos sliders are confusing to me) Sep 05 03:17:08 the volume was lower on dialing digits... it shows the number in addition to just "Mobile, or Home" Sep 05 03:17:16 There was no nasty "Beeeeeeeeep" when I ended a call Sep 05 03:17:18 MW-: Thanks for the reply. Just being able to save images in the browser makes me want to try 1.2, but i'm a bit hesitant because i dont want to mess it up = Sep 05 03:17:35 Did they fix the notification tone issue? Sep 05 03:17:47 I don't know. Let me make a call and test myself Sep 05 03:17:50 text Sep 05 03:18:24 ;) Sep 05 03:18:33 yes Sep 05 03:18:35 it was totally super quiet Sep 05 03:18:56 Barely noticable in your ear while on the call and I had the volume on max Sep 05 03:19:08 how about different tones for SMS? Sep 05 03:19:40 Nope Sep 05 03:19:56 init framework went from 191 -> 200 .. neat Sep 05 03:20:13 well I will continue to work on that patch then....got my new server tonight, but couldn't get extra RAM for it. Sep 05 03:20:39 Only in 1.2.0-0830: /resources/webOS/nova-cust-image-castle.rootfs/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/com.palm.oddService.service - odd indeed!! Sep 05 03:20:44 bp -- fiddled with the usb cable and I see castle now. Duh. how many times in my life has it been the cable? Sep 05 03:20:59 always physical layer Sep 05 03:20:59 :) Sep 05 03:21:59 Lots of code changed a bit... adds a semicoln in a lot of places where there wasn't any before .. Sep 05 03:22:31 thank god they are cleaning code up Sep 05 03:22:32 OK... next question... novacom'd into the phone. How come "vi" doesn't work right? It's like the wrong TERM setting or something Sep 05 03:23:01 no idea robo - sorry :( Sep 05 03:23:10 Sadly, the @Palm #Pre browser is still missing features compared to iPhone. Compare http://bit.ly/h9w42 vs http://bit.ly/IycoJ Sep 05 03:23:12 it works well for me Sep 05 03:23:51 yeah I can see a lot of lceaned up code Sep 05 03:24:03 bp: Really? You're using novacom to connect and it works fine? Hmmm. I get esc sequences and it doesn't paint correctly. Sep 05 03:24:08 robo: are you using it with putty? Sep 05 03:24:14 or just the cmd line ? Sep 05 03:24:24 Not using putty. Using novacom Sep 05 03:24:42 oh.. yeah it never worked right for me in there.. Sep 05 03:24:56 jauderho, what are the importance of the things missing from the pre browser ? Sep 05 03:25:00 So I should install putty and use that instead? Sep 05 03:25:05 um, so palm battery died, plugging it in gives me a big, battery symbol, how do i get the thing to turn back on, i was in the middle of a VERY important convo.. help please :( Sep 05 03:25:09 once you have ssh installed, yeah Sep 05 03:25:24 bpadalino: look at steve's site, it's pretty informative. Sep 05 03:25:24 BsCaBl: you can't. Sep 05 03:25:29 BsCaBl: wait for the battery to charge..about 15 minutes Sep 05 03:25:37 anyone familiar with the mojo calls to play wav's within an app? Sep 05 03:25:38 run through it with a standard browser. Sep 05 03:25:39 thats it, okay, thanks! :D Sep 05 03:25:56 MW thanks... Sep 05 03:26:06 bp: thanks Sep 05 03:27:08 why did it give me approx 2 dsecod sto plug in and then go to so dead it wont power on? :( Sep 05 03:27:21 bpadalino: there are some basic features missing from the pre browser such as the ability to cache a redir (which means having to take another trip out to the server if you get a 302/301) Sep 05 03:27:25 the battery is just too low Sep 05 03:27:38 interesting Sep 05 03:28:12 also looks like the JS loads serial instead of parallel Sep 05 03:28:13 no browser seems to support || CSS -> JS .. whatever that means Sep 05 03:28:19 which will like to be a biggie Sep 05 03:28:25 oh, || is parallel script loading ? Sep 05 03:28:32 bpadalino: not true Sep 05 03:28:44 firefox 3.6alpha2 passes all tests now Sep 05 03:28:52 oh .. Sep 05 03:28:56 i was looking at: http://stevesouders.com/ua/report.php?v=0 Sep 05 03:29:15 || CSS -> JS is the whole CSS blocks when it bumps into JS thing Sep 05 03:29:19 Evening good people of webos-internals Sep 05 03:29:42 what this means is "supposedly ff3.6 will load css and js in parallel" Sep 05 03:29:59 ah Sep 05 03:30:33 on a single core system, does it matter if it's done in parallel or serially ? Sep 05 03:30:44 It's not CPU blocked, it's network blocked Sep 05 03:30:50 Has anyone heard about DDR3 memory being in short supply? Sep 05 03:30:58 OH - you mean fetching css and js in parallel Sep 05 03:31:02 what is strange is that different versions of the pre browser seems to gain/lose features. Sep 05 03:31:11 that is a little weird Sep 05 03:31:33 it's not a single core/vs multi-core issue. it's a matter of how quickly you can get the resources to render. Sep 05 03:31:37 Loading CSS / JS in parallel is tricky. Need to be sure of dependencies & etc Sep 05 03:31:56 lmorchard: agreed. I have yet to see ho ff3.6 does it. Sep 05 03:32:01 does webkit support that is really the main question, right ? Sep 05 03:32:18 Yeah, I'm not sure either... there were a bunch of intern presentations on it, but I missed it :/ Sep 05 03:32:20 the pre also limits to 10-11 connections Sep 05 03:32:35 vs 60 for the iphone Sep 05 03:32:49 that is strange indeed Sep 05 03:33:37 do web servers actually allow 60 connections from the same host ? Sep 05 03:33:53 jauderho: so is there a real problem with ipkgservice 0.8.2 ? Sep 05 03:33:57 oh, conns/host is different Sep 05 03:33:58 i see Sep 05 03:34:14 and from when I looked at the kernel, recycle conns was not set Sep 05 03:34:31 jauderho: or was your hang on 0.8.0 ? Sep 05 03:34:32 rwhitby: no afaik. I was on 0.8.0. Sep 05 03:34:45 jauderho: excellent - thanks for following up. Sep 05 03:34:45 rwhitby: seems to work now for me. i will continue to monitor Sep 05 03:36:17 e.g. et.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1 Sep 05 03:36:17 net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1 Sep 05 03:36:17 et.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1 Sep 05 03:36:18 net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1 Sep 05 03:36:28 oops sorry about double paste Sep 05 03:37:20 so it is using it ? Sep 05 03:37:27 it is not Sep 05 03:37:31 oh Sep 05 03:37:41 suggest it up Sep 05 03:37:41 thats from my linux box. just illustrating the params Sep 05 03:37:45 gotcha Sep 05 03:38:13 ah-hah Sep 05 03:38:19 another clue in the puzzle Sep 05 03:38:31 looks like 1.2 is still using webkit 3.2.1 Sep 05 03:38:39 BUT there are some other changes. Sep 05 03:38:44 see http://stevesouders.com/ua/report.php?v=det&pb=iPhone+3.1 Sep 05 03:38:55 Anyone use firewire800? Sep 05 03:38:56 scroll to the right and look at the user agent string Sep 05 03:39:05 sweet, 1.2 reportedly has regular copy and paste Sep 05 03:39:25 7C116a vs 7C106c (1.1) Sep 05 03:39:39 maybe that means a newer v8 engine Sep 05 03:40:44 those are iphone vers ? Sep 05 03:40:52 pre stays at 525.27.1 Sep 05 03:40:57 no Sep 05 03:41:09 it is part of the Mobile substring Sep 05 03:41:21 probably a build number for palm Sep 05 03:41:40 525.27.1 is webkit 3.2.1 Sep 05 03:42:03 I mean 528.16 Sep 05 03:42:19 528.16 is in the iphone user agent .. Sep 05 03:43:59 i keep seeing stuff about ledthrobber in some of the 1.2 files, in the defaultprefrences.txt file there is a refrence to ledthrobberenabled: false could this be the pulsing we have been asking for when you recieve a new message and the screen is off??? Sep 05 03:46:04 possibly ? Sep 05 03:46:10 follow it Sep 05 03:46:13 see where it is Sep 05 03:48:44 looks like the pre can also accept vcards now, not sure if it was doing that before or not Sep 05 03:49:01 theo: set it to true and see what happens Sep 05 03:49:27 once i flash to it i will Sep 05 03:49:45 does anyone have 1.2 flashed that might want to test this out?? Sep 05 03:49:53 what file is it in, theo? Sep 05 03:49:56 I'll check Sep 05 03:50:42 etc\palm\defaultPreferences.txt Sep 05 03:50:52 rwhitby: whoa, didn't realize you were in .au and lacked a Pre Sep 05 03:51:08 sadly, that's the situation. Sep 05 03:51:22 but every mention of a gsm pre makes rwhitby happier Sep 05 03:51:27 rwhitby is a machine with the emulator =) Sep 05 03:51:36 GSM PRE! Sep 05 03:51:42 see happy rwhitby Sep 05 03:51:46 1.2 has all the photos of sim cards and other gsm pre goodies Sep 05 03:51:47 Ok, I'm restarting, theo Sep 05 03:52:02 It's "true" now Sep 05 03:52:03 mw: awesome, lets hope it does something Sep 05 03:52:08 so did we find out if 1.2 is truly out? Sep 05 03:52:12 I'm a bit worried that when I first lay my hands on a real device I'll say "eww - that just feels wrong" and then have to go buy something else ... Sep 05 03:52:27 quite possible rwhitby Sep 05 03:52:31 lol... lets hope that doesnt happen Sep 05 03:52:59 meh - it won't affect the community much - I don't do much around here anyway ... Sep 05 03:52:59 if we see rwhitby /part this channel once the pre comes out in .au - we will know his verdict Sep 05 03:53:13 rwhitby: well the oreo thing is a bit offputting. Sep 05 03:53:23 I was running around trying to find a hook awl today Sep 05 03:54:10 mw: are you sending yourself a message with the screen off to see if you get a pulse Sep 05 03:54:34 It just restarted Sep 05 03:54:35 Sending now Sep 05 03:55:04 Waiting for it to re-shut off the screen (I'm ignoring it) and we'll see what the led does Sep 05 03:55:24 Nothing yet, though Sep 05 03:56:08 yeah doesn't seem to be doing anything. Sep 05 03:56:34 it is a fingerprint magnet tho Sep 05 03:56:42 Oh.. I think I notice a difference.. Sep 05 03:56:48 aaahhh, i had my hopes up.... let me check something real quick Sep 05 03:56:53 really what is it?? Sep 05 03:57:01 I'm not sure if it was that way before... is it supposed to light up when you flick up to get the launcher? Sep 05 03:57:13 all 3 LEDs light up at the same time and then turn off Sep 05 03:57:25 yeah - that happened before Sep 05 03:57:28 mine is doing that Sep 05 03:57:39 hmm.. nothing I can notice then Sep 05 03:58:12 let's see if we can find where else LEDThrobberEnabled is Sep 05 03:59:03 What is the link to get it and I will see if I can't find the file Sep 05 03:59:52 off-topic: has anyone else watched "defying gravity"? Sep 05 04:00:04 give me a second i need to find it again Sep 05 04:00:22 http://megaupload.com/?d=3TH1CAKN Sep 05 04:00:26 thats it Sep 05 04:01:09 ty Sep 05 04:01:15 np Sep 05 04:02:00 I will see about loading all of the files up in BBEdit then doing a massfind Sep 05 04:02:18 grep works well Sep 05 04:02:46 yeah the program im using to compare files does not have a mass find builtin Sep 05 04:03:01 yeah, but I am going to rip the jar apart and not install it Sep 05 04:03:31 thats what ive done so far, there are a lot of changed added and deleted files compared to 1.1 Sep 05 04:04:04 Wondering if they have released it to Sprint engineers yet for testing Sep 05 04:05:23 possibly, but i pretty sure this is not complete yet so who knows Sep 05 04:05:28 I so hope 10.6 Server doesn't take much Ram Sep 05 04:08:32 well they have added a way to remove apps from the catalog and the handset, file called apprevokedalert_scene.html shows this "Palm had to delete this application from the App Catalog and your device. If you paid for this app, your money will be refunded. OK" Sep 05 04:08:45 Anyone here know how to use SetTimeout in an app? Sep 05 04:08:53 however still fishing for more info on the ledthrobber Sep 05 04:08:59 yep Sep 05 04:09:20 window.setTimeout(function,1000); Sep 05 04:09:48 I'm grepping the entire device, but it's being slow Sep 05 04:10:11 Review of Preware: http://www.thegeniusfiles.com/review-preware-by-webos-internals-an-advanced Sep 05 04:11:21 mw: it only has 10,000 plus files to look at... i would imagine it might take a second or 2 Sep 05 04:12:28 can the config lines scroll instead of going to the next line - it's a little ambiguous, isn'tit ? Sep 05 04:13:11 theo: you know about his page, right? http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/WebOS_Doctor_version_1.2.0-0830 Sep 05 04:14:14 did not, thanks you Sep 05 04:14:23 do they make palm services public in 1.2? so you don't have to name your apps com.palm? Sep 05 04:18:00 ledthrob returns nothing Sep 05 04:18:04 what is the text file name? Sep 05 04:18:15 com.palm.app.screenlock - is that referring to keyguard or the proximity sensor?

Sep 05 05:38:49 theres also the matter of weather or not it the amount of apps, or simply the space that is used Sep 05 05:38:52 not anywhere close to that many Sep 05 05:38:56 lol Sep 05 05:39:23 i know im getting ready to flash my phone to 1.2 and it'll take awhile to get to that number Sep 05 05:39:32 just load up filecoaster or preload and start tapping install Sep 05 05:39:43 oil: lol Sep 05 05:41:00 doesnt matter what you install Sep 05 05:41:04 just see if you eventually hit the limit Sep 05 05:43:14 The blinking LED is working for missing a call too.. just tested that Sep 05 05:43:17 Not just SMs Sep 05 05:43:30 oooh that is sweet Sep 05 05:43:35 hopefully it wont even need a patch Sep 05 05:43:49 just somethinig they forgot to turn on in the leak Sep 05 05:44:05 they had to have it commented for a reason .. Sep 05 05:44:05 i dont understand adding options that work, then commenting them Sep 05 05:44:20 like the pages stuff for the launcher? Sep 05 05:44:24 has ANYONE ran into a problem with it? Sep 05 05:45:16 I have no idea Sep 05 05:45:18 i never had a problem with the pages Sep 05 05:45:25 never heard of any either Sep 05 05:47:24 mw: does it clear instantly after checking the message?? Sep 05 05:48:05 It doesn't blink when youre using the phone Sep 05 05:48:08 only when it's locked Sep 05 05:48:18 I'm just using the phone for some other stuff right now and am actually amazed how much faster it is Sep 05 05:48:24 that is perfect Sep 05 05:48:43 the universal search is pulling up a contact in < 1 sec and showingall the details and the AIM status Sep 05 05:48:46 sure its not just because you had to restart to doctor? Sep 05 05:48:47 xD Sep 05 05:48:59 I already have all the optware installed and ssh and 9 cards open Sep 05 05:49:00 and no installed apps running in the background stealing processor power Sep 05 05:49:03 yeah i was going to wait to flash but i think that is going to change Sep 05 05:49:17 and maybe 10-15 apps Sep 05 05:49:21 wow, thats impressive Sep 05 05:49:43 and samba running too Sep 05 05:50:05 lol. Your Pre's battery must really *hate* you, MW Sep 05 05:50:11 It's at 100% :) Sep 05 05:50:46 how long does the flash take? Sep 05 05:50:53 HOURS Sep 05 05:51:00 * oil really doesnt know Sep 05 05:51:01 xD Sep 05 05:51:08 god i hope not...lol Sep 05 05:51:11 10-15min Sep 05 05:51:26 its starting now so lets test it out Sep 05 05:51:31 As excited as everyone is, it's probably not a good idea to install a build that isn't released. Since the web doctor was mistakenly uploaded with that image in the first place who knows if the build is even an accepted build Sep 05 05:51:43 just be sure to go into novacom right away and disable the updatedaemon Sep 05 05:52:03 gotcha Sep 05 05:52:20 chrisa: you do have to think about the fact... why go through the effort of making a WebOS Doctor for an unstable build? Sep 05 05:52:41 Build systems build pretty much everything all the time Sep 05 05:53:19 destinal: do you know some software to display the raw argb pixel data on linux? Sep 05 05:53:20 I don't know how their system works... but I wouldn't guess it would make an entire new Doctor for each build Sep 05 05:54:05 Building a new doctor image isn't any different from building any other. Just shoving a new ramdisk into an existing framework Sep 05 05:54:37 well a new rootfs, but same difference Sep 05 05:54:51 It's both Sep 05 05:55:13 technically we could say rootfs and uImage Sep 05 05:56:07 right Sep 05 05:56:13 * oil <<3's battles of technicality Sep 05 05:57:33 ameng1: I haven't heard of one Sep 05 05:58:10 ameng1: but it should be easy enough to write something that loads the data into a pixbuf / drawable in gdk Sep 05 05:58:57 are you trying to validate whether the data is getting copied over? Sep 05 05:59:09 yeah Sep 05 06:02:16 now just to see if dfb have rightly written the image data to its mem file. then i can change the way the plugin end reading it for debugging Sep 05 06:05:13 do you set up the program and run on emulator? Sep 05 06:32:52 rwhitby: you around? Sep 05 06:34:48 maybe hes on his way home? Sep 05 06:35:01 or Sep 05 06:35:08 its saturday in australia Sep 05 06:35:13 so hes probably not at work Sep 05 06:35:13 lol Sep 05 06:35:44 mw you still around?? Sep 05 06:38:16 I recall hearing people had written services for the bus, but I don't see any on the wiki Sep 05 06:44:56 destinal: penguins on emulator, hahaha Sep 05 06:45:10 ameng1: congratulations! Sep 05 06:45:19 does it perform ok? Sep 05 06:45:56 reasonably decent speed, etc? Sep 05 06:46:13 it seems the mmap does not work. i directly fread the mem file now Sep 05 06:46:28 the speed on emulotor seems ok Sep 05 06:47:10 i 'll look why mmap does not work , strange Sep 05 06:48:09 mmap will fast than fread , i now just use a regular file as the mem file ,the speed seems ok, will change the regular file to a tmpfs file Sep 05 06:49:01 and close all printf thing. hehe Sep 05 06:49:55 heh :) Sep 05 06:50:49 great, so you need to figure out the mmap thing, and then still handle input from the plugin? Sep 05 06:51:21 yeah , you could help me with input thing on plugin end Sep 05 07:38:46 chrisa: here now Sep 05 07:47:24 rwhitby: am I mistaken, or have people posted native services providing new calls to dbus for webos apps? Sep 05 07:48:36 chrisa: we've put up a bunch of java services and I think PuffTheMagic just got a working native binary one in c Sep 05 07:48:51 Is his just linking normal dbus libraries? Sep 05 07:48:54 and yeah, lunaservices model, dbus, accessed from mojo apps Sep 05 07:49:05 chrisa: he's linking lunaservices Sep 05 07:51:03 it was based on checking out palm's libpurple-adapter code and reimplementing some missing headers that weren't included in that from scratch. Sep 05 07:51:48 I dont see the network name on the PalmPre.. what should I do? Sep 05 07:54:00 chrisa: yep, as destinal said, a number in Java (just using the existing Palm classes) and one in C. Sep 05 07:54:17 chrisa: we are very careful not to redistribute any Palm code. Sep 05 07:55:45 chrisa: Preware, for example, uses a Package Manager Service, which is written in Java, and provides webOS apps with an API to talk to ipkg directly (including running postinst and prerm scripts with secure informed user consent to deter malware incorporated into installation scripts running as root) Sep 05 07:55:48 rwhitby: though we totally can redistribute the LGPL stuff :) Sep 05 07:55:55 destinal: yep Sep 05 07:56:10 rwhitby: it feels like you like to keep reminding me that you don't redistribute palm code Sep 05 07:56:58 chrisa: it's the one thing that Palm employees (not you) have specifically come here and told us not to do :-) Sep 05 07:57:10 gotcha Sep 05 07:58:32 chrisa: http://git.webos-internals.org/?p=services/ipkgservice.git;a=blob;f=org/webosinternals/ipkgservice/IPKGService.java is one of the Java services. Sep 05 07:58:58 I'm just curious to see how native stuff is coming along Sep 05 07:59:13 chrisa: http://git.preyourmind.org/?p=us.ryanhope.sysfsbatteryservice;a=blob;f=src/main is the C service. Sep 05 07:59:50 chrisa: the worst thing at the moment is that you have to restart java-serviceboot to get the new .jar file into the classpath when you install a new service. Sep 05 08:00:15 restarting java-serviceboot when installing a new package is like trying to change the tyres on a moving car ... Sep 05 08:00:48 (I've said, we should just reboot, but people don't want to wait that long) :) Sep 05 08:01:00 C services will be much better - no need to restart the whole LSMessage infrastructure just to install a new service and launch it) Sep 05 08:01:45 chrisa: that last URL should be http://git.preyourmind.org/?p=us.ryanhope.sysfsbatteryservice;a=blob;f=src/main.c (I missed the .c off the end) Sep 05 08:02:54 rwhitby: hmm, don't see a COPYING there. he did say it would be OSS, right? Sep 05 08:03:13 I see "all rights reserved" at the top Sep 05 08:03:52 destinal: http://git.preyourmind.org/?p=us.ryanhope.sysfsbatteryservice;a=tree Sep 05 08:04:00 ah, ok Sep 05 08:07:41 but yeah, we do need to go through and put proper notices on all our files ... Sep 05 08:09:14 http://i25.tinypic.com/k2oco9.png Sep 05 08:09:15 eh? Sep 05 08:12:03 oil: apart from the date being the 9th of May, 2009 it looks great. Sep 05 08:13:01 you know Sep 05 08:13:09 There are better ways to build the json response than he is doing Sep 05 08:13:16 But otherwise, this looks about normal Sep 05 08:13:26 when they release a phone in another country, ill go about making the dates look right xD Sep 05 08:14:36 better as-in faster? Sep 05 08:15:28 Arrrg. I still haven't gotten my Pre yet Sep 05 08:15:44 The good news? it's only $189 without a contract for me Sep 05 08:16:10 chrisa: are you referring to the java service or the C service? Sep 05 08:16:36 The C one Sep 05 08:18:51 Anyone know about getting a Virtual host here on the IRC? Sep 05 08:19:48 we need to speed up the ipkgservice java one, probably by accessing the lists and status files directly, and will try passing the information unparsed up to the javascript to see whether we can remove a couple of layers of parsing and reparsing the same information. Sep 05 08:22:49 * oil is willing to give it a shot Sep 05 08:22:59 should be pretty easy with how i have things setup now Sep 05 08:24:42 theo: are you guys going to create a patch for the message notification ? Sep 05 08:31:22 i would imagine so, havent talked to mw about it, but i will shoot him a pm in the morning, as of now its 430 in the am and i think i should sleep.

Sep 06 00:17:23 ahh, just me. Sep 06 00:17:26 edektor, why does it matter. has nothing to do with the pre Sep 06 00:17:36 just interested.. Sep 06 00:17:38 quotemstr: sh. Sep 06 00:17:44 ah Sep 06 00:17:50 i've done some interesting stuff on another platform Sep 06 00:17:54 but nothing with the pre Sep 06 00:17:55 why does it matter that it matters? Sep 06 00:18:09 what platform? Sep 06 00:18:17 MTW1: ever owned an iphone? Sep 06 00:18:32 yes, but that's not what i'm talking about Sep 06 00:18:40 edektor, if you want to know, i can pm you about it Sep 06 00:18:47 its a secret? Sep 06 00:18:53 no Sep 06 00:19:09 we'd all like to hear. Sep 06 00:19:10 I dont see why you cant tell me here Sep 06 00:19:24 not going to give douchebag over there ammo Sep 06 00:19:25 rwhitby: ping. Sep 06 00:19:39 so its embarrassing? Sep 06 00:19:44 also, it's private Sep 06 00:19:54 it involves hardware one is not legally allowed to own Sep 06 00:20:08 lol Sep 06 00:20:09 forget about it Sep 06 00:20:11 private, but you are willing to let someone just met in an IRC channel know? Sep 06 00:20:13 the platform is that secret Sep 06 00:20:25 anyway Sep 06 00:20:26 was is it? winMo Sep 06 00:20:26 I hope not Sep 06 00:20:29 whats going on in here Sep 06 00:20:42 nothing, just being our dorky selves. Sep 06 00:20:48 * oil is writing code Sep 06 00:20:51 busy dling the webos doctor thing, setting this machine up with the sdk and the usual noboish crap Sep 06 00:20:56 * oil is also laughing at MTW Sep 06 00:21:05 * Decimation is with oil on that one Sep 06 00:21:13 don't h8 Sep 06 00:21:27 i love being a dork... Sep 06 00:21:27 you came in here 'hating' so don't talk to us about it. Sep 06 00:21:40 only you Sep 06 00:21:43 all i did was ask for a link Sep 06 00:21:54 and you went off defending precentral like you are married to it Sep 06 00:21:54 android? iphone? symbian? Sep 06 00:22:03 you started off calling precentral shit Sep 06 00:22:06 blackberry? Sep 06 00:22:07 IT IS Sep 06 00:22:11 im pretty sure everyone here is a member at that site? Sep 06 00:22:21 the problem with that is the only link ive put up yet is on precentral.... Sep 06 00:22:22 its a shit site that apparently has a patch you want. Sep 06 00:22:22 no need to defend it Sep 06 00:22:25 MTW1: what to you recommend as an alternative? Sep 06 00:22:39 just disable forced reg Sep 06 00:22:43 let me dl files without signing up Sep 06 00:22:45 thats my only big problem Sep 06 00:23:09 its nice to have an account there so that if you have a problem with your phone Sep 06 00:23:12 you can post it there Sep 06 00:23:15 and always get an answer Sep 06 00:23:22 great, but i'm not interested in that Sep 06 00:23:23 its a nice site, with a great team of developers. Sep 06 00:23:25 see, you can like it Sep 06 00:23:27 i can not like it Sep 06 00:23:36 but you don't have to rush to it's defense every time its attacked Sep 06 00:23:50 which site are we talking about here? Sep 06 00:23:55 then don't come in here trashing it with an IRC full of members Sep 06 00:23:57 because there are genuine problems with precentral Sep 06 00:23:58 AnOutsider: precentral. Sep 06 00:24:00 no. Sep 06 00:24:06 i will bash it everywhere i want Sep 06 00:24:13 ohh Sep 06 00:24:17 whats wrong with precentral? Sep 06 00:24:20 and you should grow up and accept that people don't always agree with you Sep 06 00:24:32 ads everywhere (not that it matters, they are all blocked) and forced reg Sep 06 00:24:46 thats fine, i dont care if you don't like it Sep 06 00:24:51 but because you don't like something Sep 06 00:24:54 great, not stop talking about it Sep 06 00:24:56 doesn't mean you have to trash talk it. Sep 06 00:24:57 *now Sep 06 00:25:04 but i decided to do so Sep 06 00:25:06 such is my right Sep 06 00:25:19 I have ad blocker, but what's wrong with a site using ads for revenue? better than a forced payment no? Sep 06 00:25:22 as is my right to call you out on it. Sep 06 00:25:25 I plan to support prethemer with ads Sep 06 00:25:33 and you seem like a child each time you do so Sep 06 00:25:41 in reality, people disagree without getting into huge fights Sep 06 00:25:44 and you are the one causing said fight Sep 06 00:25:58 MTW1: i believe many would have a different opinion. Sep 06 00:26:03 well then... Sep 06 00:26:11 you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who disagrees with me Sep 06 00:26:14 http://git.webos-internals.org/?p=tools/ipkg-installer.git;a=summary is this the same thing greg_roll was working on? Sep 06 00:26:20 oh ya, there's his name :) Sep 06 00:26:26 AnOutsider: yes. Sep 06 00:26:34 why did you need to get the file from precentral anyway? Sep 06 00:26:36 oh great Sep 06 00:26:36 figured it out Sep 06 00:26:38 wasnt it on quilt or preware Sep 06 00:26:41 MTW1: FWIW, I disagree. I don't see what's wrong with ads, and what's wrong with having to register to post? Sep 06 00:26:47 keeps out spam and fly-by-nighters Sep 06 00:26:48 nah, edektor Sep 06 00:26:57 i shouldn't have to reg just to get a file Sep 06 00:26:57 not on Quilt Sep 06 00:27:00 i don't want to be part of that community Sep 06 00:27:08 ooo, you mean the attachments Sep 06 00:27:15 ye Sep 06 00:27:16 *yes Sep 06 00:27:19 yeah I can see why that would be a pain, but I can also see why they would do it Sep 06 00:27:32 yeah Sep 06 00:27:32 see Sep 06 00:27:34 you are an adult Sep 06 00:27:34 bandwidth is money #1, #2 they want to discourage lurkers and promote an active community Sep 06 00:27:36 when i disagree Sep 06 00:27:40 good reasons IMO Sep 06 00:27:41 you don't go into a frenzy Sep 06 00:27:45 haha Sep 06 00:27:47 no, no frenzy Sep 06 00:27:51 we can have a normal, reasoned discussion Sep 06 00:27:57 something that other guy is not capable of Sep 06 00:28:02 don't u go calling me reasonable bitch Sep 06 00:28:05 ;) Sep 06 00:28:07 lol Sep 06 00:28:23 ok so now i gotta figure out how to use git Sep 06 00:28:31 im a new SVN user :p Sep 06 00:28:35 AnOutsider: what you wanna know? Sep 06 00:28:35 ah Sep 06 00:28:54 :) Sep 06 00:29:07 * Decimation praises oil. Sep 06 00:29:26 nah just need to get it set up so I can pull this source down Sep 06 00:29:34 I'm going to toy with auto-packaging themes tonight Sep 06 00:30:08 oh wait. 1.1, isnt this the same version he posted on precental? I've already got that Sep 06 00:31:49 well, thank you oil, there goes one headache. Sep 06 00:39:31 To be clear, I have no problem with anyone criticizing any particular site but insulting other members of the channel and in general acting offensively, I _do_ have a problem with. Sep 06 00:39:57 Channel policy states: We expect all participants to treat each other with respect, irrespective of skills or status. Sep 06 00:40:22 it only started with saying he doesn't like pc, which i dont care if he likes it or not Sep 06 00:40:27 but then he got angry and insulting Sep 06 00:40:32 yeah, that's totally out of line Sep 06 00:41:00 could care less if he likes the site Sep 06 00:41:17 but expressing an opinion, and trash talking have a fine line between them Sep 06 00:41:20 one that was crossed. Sep 06 00:41:55 well I think there was a pretty broad line that he careened over at a rapid clip :P Sep 06 00:44:28 destinal: one could say so :P Sep 06 00:44:47 lol, was i in the wrong at all? Sep 06 00:45:10 totally Sep 06 00:45:18 :O Sep 06 00:45:22 lol Sep 06 00:46:41 thats hilarious, leave to go to the store come back and my favorite person has been removed.... so sad Sep 06 00:46:47 quotemstr: ping Sep 06 00:47:07 he was your favorite person? Sep 06 00:47:31 lol... sure, i thought you knew that....jk Sep 06 00:49:03 he has every right to not like a site but as destinal stated, there is no reason to attack other members just because you dont get what you want Sep 06 00:49:42 lol, whatever though, he's gone now. Sep 06 00:49:53 Personally, I don't like Precentral either. But it's a hate born out of jealousy. Their community is so much friendlier than the one on my site. :P Sep 06 00:49:57 just another idiot. Sep 06 00:50:13 And the haven't invitied me on the PalmCast yet. Sep 06 00:50:25 Elitist snobs! Sep 06 00:50:29 hehe Sep 06 00:50:33 lol Sep 06 00:50:56 which they should do immediately Sep 06 00:51:00 freakout: Precentral is pretty cool, though I think competition is a good thing, I don't really one any one site to dominate :) Sep 06 00:51:10 Maybe it's because I can't spell "invited".... Sep 06 00:51:10 s/one any/want any/ Sep 06 00:51:12 destinal meant: freakout: Precentral is pretty cool, though I think competition is a good thing, I don't really want any one site to dominate :) Sep 06 00:51:21 lol @infobot Sep 06 00:51:44 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:51:44 destinal: thanks Sep 06 00:51:57 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:51:57 thanks, Decimation Sep 06 00:52:01 :D Sep 06 00:52:11 i wonder what happens if you feed him too many snacks Sep 06 00:52:16 everyone deserves a treat infobot.. Sep 06 00:52:19 Let's find out Sep 06 00:52:22 lol Sep 06 00:52:29 ~botsnack ~botsnack ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:30 :), freakout Sep 06 00:52:32 is it like overfeeding a foldfish? Sep 06 00:52:33 hey, infobot needs to keep his girlish figure Sep 06 00:52:35 goldfish* Sep 06 00:52:41 "It's wafer-thin...." Sep 06 00:52:45 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:45 Decimation: thanks Sep 06 00:52:45 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:46 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:46 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:46 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:47 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:48 ~botsnack Sep 06 00:52:50 Decimation: stop Sep 06 00:52:51 ohh Sep 06 00:52:54 http://youtube.com/watch?v=BlK62rjQWLk Sep 06 00:52:57 destinal: lol, k. Sep 06 00:53:43 ~thanks for not flooding, infobot Sep 06 00:53:44 destinal: bitte Sep 06 00:54:11 lol thats what the infobot looks like now Sep 06 00:54:29 ~thanks infobot, you're a doll :D Sep 06 00:54:29 Decimation: no problem Sep 06 00:54:38 lol, thats great. Sep 06 00:55:04 just wait, theo and Decimation. It gets sooooo much worse Sep 06 00:59:21 he explodes? Sep 06 00:59:39 Lol Sep 06 00:59:45 oil: spoilers! spoilers! Sep 06 01:00:31 sorry Sep 06 01:01:04 j/k Sep 06 01:01:22 It's from 1983. I think you can safely ignore spoiler warnings after the first two decades Sep 06 01:08:41 Decimation: they are saying the precentral app is closed for proprietary API to the site reasons. Sep 06 01:08:53 yeah, i was asking about that Sep 06 01:09:13 when i was asked to "join the team" Sep 06 01:09:40 PuffTheMagic: regarding licensing, we saw COPYING at the top level, but main.c just had all rights reserved in it rather than the normal GPLv2 file header. We knew your intent, but the header in main.c in isolation would be confusing to others. Sep 06 01:11:42 rwhitby: I don't think that someone can authorize you to use an API in one app and not another Sep 06 01:12:12 Decimation: you are not the only one sick of people totally misusing the term "brick" Sep 06 01:12:32 * oil will brb Sep 06 01:13:51 since unauthorized access laws are the only thing that they have to leverage against someone using an unofficial app, in this case, the public will be authorized to use the web services they provide Sep 06 01:14:20 heh - I would have kicked MTW immediately after he talking about people sucking parts of other people's anatomy in channel Sep 06 01:14:40 rwhitby: people seem to not know what brick means. Sep 06 01:14:50 rwhitby: it seems that some ops hadn't used chanserv to gain ops before Sep 06 01:14:53 (since he's been kicked before, he no longer gets warnings) Sep 06 01:15:37 rwhitby: so regarding secret public API's, I really can't see how precentral can expect to keep them proprietary. just about every other major company that has made one has seen it reverse engineered and a compatible app made public Sep 06 01:16:01 rwhitby: but it was getting me so hot Sep 06 01:16:08 i wonder how paid app store apps will work Sep 06 01:16:20 won't people just SSH in a spread em on the net? Sep 06 01:17:40 Decimation: yeah, it's unknown at this point what they're planning to avoid that if anything Sep 06 01:18:01 it's really the same problem with any copyrighted data in any distribution model Sep 06 01:18:28 they can create copy protection mechanisms, but they'll be cracked, and so on Sep 06 01:18:29 my guess is they'll sniff down people spreading paid apps and put lawsuits in their faces. Sep 06 01:19:24 well, really it's up to the copyright holders Sep 06 01:19:27 Well, our business model involves unique ID with web services for advanced function. Sep 06 01:19:41 and basic function is on the free demo app Sep 06 01:20:13 I honestly can't think of any other way to do it on the Pre. Sep 06 01:20:15 Rick_home: meaning you're putting key functionality on the web service that isn't easily replicated in the app? Sep 06 01:20:29 we're putting SOME functionality on the web. Sep 06 01:20:59 for instance, on a db app, upload an access table, or an excel spreadsheet and we perform conversion FOR you and the app grabs it in native format. Sep 06 01:21:15 ah Sep 06 01:21:27 Strict DRM on apps wouldn't help anyway. Just look on bittorrent for iPhone apps sometime, they're everywhere. Sep 06 01:22:05 or in an ebook reader program, upload your PDB or your rocketbook file or mobipocket or whatever, and the app magically downloads a native format ebook. Sep 06 01:22:32 small charges for web services, monthly subscription or pay by the piece, Sep 06 01:22:42 and the base program runs just fine if you want to do all the work yourself. Sep 06 01:22:54 so, download the free program. It works. Sep 06 01:23:38 destinal: that's the reason kesne gave for the precentral app being closed. it's a reasonble rationale from precentral - obviously as you state it has no weight in law, but they are big enough to sway opinion without law in their particular market. Sep 06 01:23:53 buy the upgrade to the web service program, and it gets the serial number from teh phone and registers you Sep 06 01:24:42 and yes, we have to have a mechanism (probably mail you) to register a different phone. Sep 06 01:24:44 Big deal Sep 06 01:24:55 * rwhitby wonders whether those people getting involved in feeding the MTW troll considered whether future employers will be able to use Google to look up IRC nicks ... :-) Sep 06 01:25:23 the point isn't to keep people from using the app, the point is to get people to pay $0.50 or $0.99 for a transaction or $3 a month for unlimeted access -- these prices not yet set... just by example Sep 06 01:28:02 zomg what'd i miss? Sep 06 01:28:37 check the logs Sep 06 01:28:42 no one wants to repeat that. Sep 06 01:28:49 Right :) Sep 06 01:29:24 an hour an a half ago. Sep 06 01:29:53 wb PreGame Sep 06 01:30:23 So..... I got the schedule for Sprints conference. Sep 06 01:30:35 4 hour webos programming workshop on day one. Sep 06 01:30:38 None on day 2 Sep 06 01:30:53 and I get a 45 minute slot in the LAST SLOT OF THE DAY on day 3. Sep 06 01:30:55 :-( Sep 06 01:30:57 oh well. Sep 06 01:31:35 so, Marco and I have decided we're going to community-organize a webos session during the android and winmoble programming sessions on day 2,, in the evening. Sep 06 01:31:44 We'll take over a lobby or a loung or something..... Sep 06 01:31:48 signs-are-us. Sep 06 01:32:10 goddamnit. eff ANT Sep 06 01:32:14 Rick_home: pwned Sep 06 01:32:18 Rick_home: but yeah, good idea Sep 06 01:32:22 tha's the plan Sep 06 01:32:58 we figure that during the webos sessions PALM is doing on day 1, we can semi-announce where we will do a community session on day 2, Sep 06 01:33:01 Why is there so little preware love on precentral? I can't even read their forums anymore. Sep 06 01:33:08 so is it Sprint internal? Sep 06 01:33:14 which we will use to foment attendance on day 3. :-) Sep 06 01:33:36 preware not glitzy enough. and has a long load time up front. people think it's hung. Needs a progress bar. Sep 06 01:33:56 not QUITE sure how to do that. but the service COULD feed back a counter as it info's each package.... Sep 06 01:34:15 but right now that big spinning circle is a turn off. People think the program's hung Sep 06 01:34:26 Heh, it's funny. Preload gives WAY too much info. Sep 06 01:34:54 It was great actually, it failled at loaded a package, and it's response message was that the Install Succeeded Successfully at Package_Install_Fail or something similar. Sep 06 01:35:10 rwhitby: it really depends on what their API will be useful for, could be cool to make an app that consumes it Sep 06 01:35:20 but I kind of doubt it's worth the effort Sep 06 01:36:15 zsoc: lol Sep 06 01:36:15 rwhitby, also, just in the way of a quick update. gstreamer is giving me super difficulties building properly. I can build plugins with the libs but that restricts me in testing. Sep 06 01:36:44 zsoc: can you elaborate? Sep 06 01:38:33 destinal, on the gst issues? Sep 06 01:38:54 yeah, what doesn't build and why Sep 06 01:38:57 that sort of thing Sep 06 01:38:58 Rick_home: Preware just isn't the tool for the instant gratification generation ;-) Sep 06 01:39:30 I really have doubts as to whether the service calling ipkg at the command line is really going to be the best answer long term Sep 06 01:39:50 I hope Palm ships 1.2 with the LED stuff enabled by default Sep 06 01:39:57 I guess that'd be an easy patch for Preware Sep 06 01:40:03 destinal: agreed. oil and I are going to try just passing up the lists and status file contents as-is, and see how fast that is. Sep 06 01:41:00 if that fails, then the next step would be for the service to work in the background on boot and update an sqlite db before Preware is even launched. Sep 06 01:41:12 destinal, gst isn't available in the arm debian repos (although all of the plugins and various other support libs are), and i can't get the source to configure without ridiculous glib problems. i haven't put too much time into it, i'm fairly certain i could figure it out tho Sep 06 01:41:59 then there is always demand-loading of app data - only load the info you need as you're scrolling through the apps in the list. Sep 06 01:42:16 there are plenty of ways to speed things up once the functionality is correct. Sep 06 01:43:01 yep Sep 06 01:43:12 but a progress bar solution would work too. Sep 06 01:43:20 people can be patient if they know somehitn is HAPPENING Sep 06 01:43:26 that spinner tho, that has to die. Sep 06 01:43:27 :-) Sep 06 01:43:53 * zsoc wonders about the best way to kill wake up messages Sep 06 01:45:05 Rick_home: so a progress bar that progresses at a couple of pixels per second (total length == 5 minutes) and then just jumps to the end when we're ready? Sep 06 01:45:31 genius. Sep 06 01:45:58 rwhitby: Brilliant. You australians are so CREATIVE.... Sep 06 01:46:07 then people will say "wow, look how fast Preware does all those things at the end ..." Sep 06 01:46:46 Rick_home: it's the LSD in our water supply. ;) Sep 06 01:46:56 now that's something I never thought of . a FAKE progress pill. Sep 06 01:46:58 :-) Sep 06 01:47:25 rwhitby: re: the license thing... Sep 06 01:47:36 PuffTheMagic: yep Sep 06 01:47:43 i didnt want to put the whole gpl2 in the header Sep 06 01:47:50 so if there is something else i should add let me know Sep 06 01:48:07 PuffTheMagic: there's a 15 line short form Sep 06 01:48:16 got link? Sep 06 01:48:23 or even just "Licensed under the GPLv2" instead of "all rights reserved" Sep 06 01:48:51 puff: http://forums.precentral.net/homebrew-apps/200660-preware-17.html#post1872410 Sep 06 01:48:55 PuffTheMagic: I think the AccelService Java has the header I'm thinking of at the top. Sep 06 01:49:51 what internals stuff is only on precentral.com? Sep 06 01:50:53 tmzt: precentral.net?, none yet cause fileCoaster can't handle advanced homebrew apps, and Dieter has only just put in the flags in the DB to allow him to exclude them from the fileCoaster feed. Sep 06 01:50:55 all webos-internals stuff is on our git repo Sep 06 01:51:25 tmzt: PreYourMind.org is a good site for -internals stuff Sep 06 01:51:50 gpl2 program header short form at http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html#TOC4 Sep 06 01:52:33 tmzt: PuffTheMagic runs it, and it handles everything regarding advanced homebrew nicely. Sep 06 01:52:55 tmzt: the other option is just put it on git.webos-internals.org and get the autobuilder to handle it. Sep 06 01:53:30 rwhitby: how about just adding a second info method for testing just passing the data without preprocessing it Sep 06 01:53:43 WebOSGroup.com is a new site too Sep 06 01:53:54 and canuck software Sep 06 01:54:01 though he doesnt have a site i dont think Sep 06 01:54:08 oil: yeah - rawlist(feed) and rawstatus Sep 06 01:54:22 rwhitby: I'm not sure if you were here the first time mtw here? He certainly wasn't treated with the respect discyssed in the current policy Sep 06 01:54:29 oil: no, canuck-software is just a feed for his own apps, not a submission site Sep 06 01:54:38 ah Sep 06 01:55:15 tmzt: mtw is actaully a repeat offender. He's already had warnings and was kicked weeks ago. Sep 06 01:55:59 I know, I mean the first time a few weeks after the Pre was realesed Sep 06 01:56:16 tmzt: although I do agree that people got pulled into his particular style of trolling too easily, and we didn't have the mechanics of enacting the policy documented for the ops to follow Sep 06 01:57:00 tmzt: if I remember correctly, he wasn't actually kicked on that occasion, but was talked down and left on his own accord. Sep 06 01:57:01 rwhitby: nice plug ;) Sep 06 01:57:04 getting treated badly months ago makes his current acts acceptable? Sep 06 01:57:18 rwhitby: i talked to Templarian about making little affiliate banners Sep 06 01:57:28 i think he forgot about it Sep 06 01:57:40 Sorry about that Sep 06 01:57:49 lol no prob Sep 06 01:58:29 I'm going to design one up for my site i'll try to get something that can be quickly pasted in. Sep 06 01:58:33 tmzt: people can express any opinion they want about any site in here (in line with the on-topic guidelines of course), but the first sign of disrespect for other participants is the tipping point. Sep 06 01:58:44 may I missed part of today's discusson, I only saw where it reached the personal attacks stage Sep 06 01:59:10 tmzt: you will notice that PuffTheMagic and I can have quite robust arguments, but have never disrespected each other. Sep 06 01:59:13 or accusationsof same Sep 06 01:59:18 lol Sep 06 01:59:21 robust Sep 06 01:59:21 lol Sep 06 01:59:24 sure Sep 06 02:00:00 that's the way in which we expect disagreements to be handled between channel participants. Sep 06 02:00:19 * Templarian can't wait to see the new Jay Leno Sep 06 02:00:39 i cant wait for new Big Bang Sep 06 02:00:53 Of course puff we all are. Sep 06 02:01:11 fyi Sep 06 02:01:25 * PuffTheMagic is still trying to build upstart 0.6 for armv7 Sep 06 02:01:50 PuffTheMagic, what issue are you having? Sep 06 02:02:07 well i cant cross compile it Sep 06 02:02:18 so ihave to build it with qeum and an arm image Sep 06 02:02:24 so i found a debian image Sep 06 02:02:30 but its lenny Sep 06 02:02:39 and lenny has dbus 1.2.1 Sep 06 02:02:45 and i need >1.2.4 Sep 06 02:02:55 * zsoc wonders what debian image he's using Sep 06 02:02:56 which means i have to build a shit load of deps from scrach Sep 06 02:03:15 http://people.debian.org/~aurel32/qemu/arm/ Sep 06 02:03:33 has anyone run ubuntu/X yet? Sep 06 02:03:43 tmzt: On the Pre? Sep 06 02:03:43 PuffTheMagic, Is 5.0.1 Lenny? Sep 06 02:03:59 5.0.1 of what? Sep 06 02:04:03 PuffTheMagic, Debian Sep 06 02:04:06 nfc Sep 06 02:04:07 yes Sep 06 02:04:12 im not a debian person Sep 06 02:04:14 i use gentoo Sep 06 02:04:21 but i thought this would be quick Sep 06 02:04:39 but this damn emulator is slow as hell Sep 06 02:05:01 Ah yes, it seems to be lenny. Guess it's the same image I have then. Sep 06 02:05:16 x86 emulator? Sep 06 02:05:37 no qemu-arm Sep 06 02:05:56 sid has dbus 1.2.16 Sep 06 02:06:05 but i havent seen a arm image for sid Sep 06 02:06:14 so compile it is Sep 06 02:06:33 too bad the upstart devs couldnt make a proper makefile Sep 06 02:07:50 autotools to the rescue? :P Sep 06 02:07:59 they are using autotools Sep 06 02:08:06 but they fail Sep 06 02:08:09 for cross compile Sep 06 02:08:14 PuffTheMagic: you just debootstrap it Sep 06 02:08:22 what? Sep 06 02:08:30 debian sid Sep 06 02:08:50 i just need to build dbus and its deps Sep 06 02:08:57 and im on the dbus part now Sep 06 02:09:09 but i dont think u realize how slow qemu-arm is Sep 06 02:09:13 are you looking for an image? Sep 06 02:09:17 it feels like a 300Mhz p3 Sep 06 02:09:19 I do Sep 06 02:09:29 use qemubuilder Sep 06 02:09:35 and kqemu Sep 06 02:09:42 should be faster Sep 06 02:10:08 i thoght i would give kvm a shot Sep 06 02:10:11 * zsoc curses at the gst configure file Sep 06 02:10:23 for arm? Sep 06 02:10:32 not sure that works Sep 06 02:10:44 yeah prob not Sep 06 02:11:08 kqemu does because of the way it works Sep 06 02:11:23 does virtualbox support arm? Sep 06 02:11:25 it judt executes blicks of code Sep 06 02:11:28 no Sep 06 02:11:39 lame Sep 06 02:14:01 whats good Sep 06 02:15:11 arm seems to be a heavily neglected architecture in general Sep 06 02:15:34 vbox is a pc emulator Sep 06 02:15:54 it uses some qemu code but it's not qemu Sep 06 02:16:21 thats not to say the couldnt add other arch support down the line Sep 06 02:16:31 qemu didnt support everything initially Sep 06 02:16:43 right Sep 06 02:16:52 but it's a product Sep 06 02:18:17 and as a product, they only write stuff that pays.... :-) Sep 06 02:18:21 i like how the configure file for gst doesn't check for pkg-config, but it won't build without it. Sep 06 02:18:21 trust me on this. Sep 06 02:19:12 heh - this kill switch is really scaring the people who "donated' $10 for mytether ... Sep 06 02:21:17 haha Sep 06 02:21:20 kill switch? Sep 06 02:21:23 well Sep 06 02:21:24 its a donation Sep 06 02:21:29 its not like they're paying for anything Sep 06 02:21:45 Rick_home: 1.2 has traces of remote disablement of apps Sep 06 02:22:06 ah Sep 06 02:22:14 well. Sep 06 02:22:17 hmm Sep 06 02:22:26 Still waiting for official comment from Palm on that. Sep 06 02:22:32 oil: the problem is that aonic has said "I'll always be able to make mytether work, no matter what changes" Sep 06 02:22:36 Sometimes I suspect their PR doesn't like me. Sep 06 02:22:40 I suppose a competant tethering app would disable the kill switch. :-) Sep 06 02:22:46 and now i can't umount my chroot :< Sep 06 02:23:06 zsoc: /proc still mounted? Sep 06 02:23:21 rwhitby, proc went fine, i had to force /dev, and / won't umount Sep 06 02:23:47 zsoc: a process in the chroot still running? Sep 06 02:24:10 rwhitby, er.. define 'running'? apt was complaining about something or other.. i'm pretty sure i killed it Sep 06 02:24:50 nope, killed now. Sep 06 02:26:04 Ok, now everyone umounts fine except / Sep 06 02:26:46 the img is full, i mean i'm umounting it so i can resize it, should stop me from umounting no? Sep 06 02:35:07 really annoyed at the mojo documentation just now. Sep 06 02:35:17 REALLY REALLY annoyed at playSound() Sep 06 02:35:21 blarg. Sep 06 02:35:39 which Palm had included some decent clicks and pops and tings in playSound. Sep 06 02:35:48 -which + wish Sep 06 02:36:37 ha, i've never seen someone use patch syntax Sep 06 02:38:56 yeah that was funny Sep 06 02:39:12 most use s/blah/blarg/ Sep 06 02:40:18 sed ftw Sep 06 02:41:45 s/blah/blarg is a "recent" inovation in on-line chat. Sep 06 02:42:02 my fingers learned before that became the common parlance. Sep 06 02:42:04 recent? Sep 06 02:42:07 rwhitby: it looks like from the text that the remove app is for recalling apps installed from the catalog Sep 06 02:42:08 nodnod Sep 06 02:42:16 yep Sep 06 02:42:21 Hm.. I see the quotes... 8 years not recent enough? oldie Sep 06 02:42:34 zsoc: I was moderating live on-line roleplaying prior to 1982 Sep 06 02:42:44 destinal: but really, they're all just packages, right? Sep 06 02:42:48 and was participating in chat rooms prior to 1980 Sep 06 02:42:52 destinal: but they wouldn't be allowed to talk about homebrew apps in webOS code anyway, so that's not definitive. Sep 06 02:42:59 is 30 years ago long enough? Sep 06 02:43:09 Oldie indeed :) Sep 06 02:43:36 here's the sad thing. There's a good chance that I was older _then_ than you are now...... Sep 06 02:43:37 personally it bothers me that they can even do that. shades of amazon w/ kindle Sep 06 02:44:00 Is this my device or Palm's? Sep 06 02:44:18 it's your device, but those are Palm's apps. and it's SPRINT's network Sep 06 02:44:22 so..... Sep 06 02:44:37 destinal: its palms Sep 06 02:44:45 lol Sep 06 02:44:47 Rick_home: wrong on both counts Sep 06 02:44:53 you can HAVE your device, and do anything you want with it. unless you want to use THEIR apps, and Sprint's network. In which case, my bat, my ball, my rules. Sep 06 02:45:04 You don't own anything or have any rights, deal with it :P Sep 06 02:45:49 Over my own infrastructure and using ANY carrier that still allows me to log in, Palm can decide what to pull back off my device? People _should_ be concerned Sep 06 02:46:18 destinal: that's their view. You may disagree. Feel free to patch away remote kill. Sep 06 02:46:31 which im sure will be a patch released shortly after 1.2 Sep 06 02:46:37 (hell, or before like led notifications) Sep 06 02:46:38 hehehehehe ya think? Sep 06 02:46:41 destinal, Yes, but people aren't. They don't want to think for themselves. The whole world is socialist :P Sep 06 02:46:44 sure, but I'm offended by the erosion of assumed rights, people should be up in arms Sep 06 02:47:02 probably because it rarely does anything Sep 06 02:47:02 * oil gets pitchfork and rallies the townfolk Sep 06 02:47:11 Gogole has it in Android I beleive, and Apple has it in the appstore Sep 06 02:47:19 all the hissy0fits amounted to nothing Sep 06 02:47:20 oil: don't forget the torches Sep 06 02:47:32 yeah Sep 06 02:47:36 the townfolk will get those Sep 06 02:47:50 this is a _computer_ Sep 06 02:47:57 lol Sep 06 02:48:23 if apple started pulling this stuff on a mac, LOTS of people would be pissed Sep 06 02:48:34 thats the thng Sep 06 02:48:35 LOTS? Sep 06 02:48:36 yes destinal we know. 8 gig linux box that happens to run a phone app if you really want to. Sep 06 02:48:38 we know. Sep 06 02:48:38 remember it is a phone and they pull it on that Sep 06 02:48:39 remote kill exists on the iphone Sep 06 02:48:44 i didnt know that many people had mavs Sep 06 02:48:50 macs* Sep 06 02:49:01 here's the thing - most people in the US don't pay full price for phones, so how can they expect the carriers and manufacturers to treat them like they do? Sep 06 02:49:02 apple DOES pull this stuff on iphones. Sep 06 02:49:12 oil: that's the thing, lots of people who didn't even BUY a mac would be pissed at the very idea Sep 06 02:49:21 lol Sep 06 02:49:44 but people think, oh, phone, not computer. it's wrongheaded thinking given the direction things are going, mobile devices will be our primary computing devices Sep 06 02:50:08 destinal: that's because your society has valued subsidies over ownership. Sep 06 02:50:15 so, get a group of buddies and build one. Sep 06 02:50:16 the pre is more powerful then my primary pc 2 pcs ago Sep 06 02:50:19 xD Sep 06 02:50:20 oh yeah, they tried that. Sep 06 02:50:28 rwhitby, that subsidized cost comes from the carrier in exchange for a commission to the dealer. If you screw them on the service, they charge back the dealer. Carrier isn't giving you a thing. Sep 06 02:50:38 * freakout wonders if he's too late to join the mob. Has shiny pitchfork Sep 06 02:50:45 shiny? Sep 06 02:50:49 you need to fight more battles with the man Sep 06 02:50:52 Rick_home: I have 4 openmoko devices :-) Sep 06 02:50:52 well, that's the thing, we will be able to opt-out, but it's still just a bad status quo, and I think people should be pissed at palm, that's all. Sep 06 02:50:59 haha u guys are crazy Sep 06 02:51:08 alright im doen fighting with ipkg installer, night folks Sep 06 02:51:12 * Rick_home pitchfork is rusty and has horseshit on it... all the better to cause tetnis with Sep 06 02:51:21 haha Sep 06 02:51:33 rwhitby: you and six other guys. Sep 06 02:51:35 :-) Sep 06 02:51:51 Rick_home: I didn't pay for any of mine ;-) Sep 06 02:52:23 palm pays lip service to open standards and open source and then quietly goes about building all the same control-stealing stuff apple did. Sep 06 02:52:23 destinal: The argument about the iPhone's draconian rules that goes "oh, it's like a video game console" infuriates me. No, it's a very capable mobile computer, Apple have just crippled it. /rant Sep 06 02:52:24 ahhhhhh so all that subsidy talk is just hot air then? People GIVE you phones because your SPECIAL :-) ((( GD&R ))) Sep 06 02:52:47 destinal: I didn't think Palm has said anything about open source in their marketing. Sep 06 02:53:04 destinal: the community has said lots, but Palm has just used open source as a tool. Sep 06 02:53:04 nope that's been all us. Sep 06 02:53:42 Rick_home: people give me phone so I can help create communities and infrastructure to support them :-) Sep 06 02:53:56 Rick_home: but Palm hasn't got the message about that yet .. Sep 06 02:53:59 like I said. You're special.. Sep 06 02:54:06 I know someone else like that Sep 06 02:54:14 teams just kind of crystalize around him. Sep 06 02:54:20 it's always amazing to watch Sep 06 02:54:39 freakout: actually Sep 06 02:54:49 freakout: the PSP is a very capable mobile computer too Sep 06 02:54:54 Rick_home: my main phone, I've always personally paid full unsubsidised price. Sep 06 02:55:11 My Treo 650 cost over AUD$1K Sep 06 02:55:21 ouch Sep 06 02:55:23 ahhh Sep 06 02:55:32 I expect the Pre will cost AUD$900 Sep 06 02:55:38 and i only payed $1k for my car Sep 06 02:55:46 anyone elses battery door creaking like a mofo? Sep 06 02:55:47 haha Sep 06 02:56:03 nebula: mine does sometimes, but it was because of the "paper-hack" Sep 06 02:56:12 i readjusted it in the back and it went away Sep 06 02:56:18 ugh mine is getting worse every day Sep 06 02:56:30 can't figure out where to put the electrical tape Sep 06 02:56:46 in your ears? Sep 06 02:56:48 pretty soon i'm just gonna super glue the farker shut Sep 06 02:56:53 lol Sep 06 02:56:57 lol Sep 06 02:57:02 Then when you need to remove the battery, your screwed Sep 06 02:57:07 and it WILL happen Sep 06 02:57:33 wellll Sep 06 02:57:40 that's why i do, because i have 3 batteries Sep 06 02:57:42 nebula: mine did until I got a touchstone, the touchstone back cover fixed that Sep 06 02:57:47 w00t Sep 06 02:57:55 touchstone ftw! Sep 06 02:57:57 double win Sep 06 02:59:23 yeh touchstone and the new back makes all the difference in the feel of the phone Sep 06 02:59:46 destinal: that is true. Actually pretty much anything can be, it's all about the parent company's attitude towards those who want to mod it **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Sep 06 02:59:57 2009
