**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Jun 05 02:59:58 2014 Jun 05 04:42:58 Saijin_Naib: sounds like a candidate to me Jun 05 04:43:07 Hey Morphis Jun 05 04:43:15 Do you know if the 512mb of RAM will be a limitation? Jun 05 04:44:47 it can get a problem Jun 05 04:45:00 currently we're not really trying to optimize our ram usage Jun 05 04:45:37 so each webapp produces two processing taking some memory Jun 05 04:45:45 s/processing/processes/ Jun 05 04:46:31 Saijin_Naib: it could be too low Jun 05 04:47:13 Ahh, okay Jun 05 04:47:14 but it's nothing we can't optimize Jun 05 04:47:27 Right. Optimiziation comes later after things are developed, right? Jun 05 04:48:03 sadly,yes Jun 05 04:48:16 Nothing wrong with that Jun 05 04:48:28 I am also not sure if we switch back to a central webappmanager approach instead of a webapp-launcher Jun 05 04:48:43 I'm not familiar with the difference between the two approaches Jun 05 04:50:55 Saijin_Naib: what legacy webOS had was just one process which was the webappmanager Jun 05 04:51:01 Ahh, okay Jun 05 04:51:07 now that we're using webkit2 we have a multi process model Jun 05 04:51:12 so one process per webpage Jun 05 04:51:14 And if the webapp hung, it could make it unstable, right? Jun 05 04:51:19 right Jun 05 04:51:26 what we have right now is that Jun 05 04:51:46 we launch for every webapp one managing process and one process handling the webpage Jun 05 04:52:00 Okay, makes sense I guess Jun 05 04:52:04 we could optimize this to be one maneging process for all webapps Jun 05 04:52:07 yeah Jun 05 04:52:13 I was just going to ask if that was possible Jun 05 04:52:15 that would save some memory Jun 05 04:52:31 each webapp in their own process, and one overseeing process Jun 05 04:53:46 This may be the wrong question to ask, but are you guys involved with the PhoenixACL folks? Jun 05 04:54:14 openwebOS with webOS apps and Android apps would be pretty hard to beat Jun 05 04:54:24 no, we're not Jun 05 04:54:56 Ah, okay. Jun 05 05:00:04 So, I should (hopefully) be winning a ZTE Open C and ZTE Open tomorrow some time Jun 05 05:00:16 If I want to make the Open C an officially supported platform, what do I do? Jun 05 05:00:22 Is there someone I can send it to? Jun 05 05:00:31 Should Eric and I try to figure out the device profile ourselves? Jun 05 05:00:43 He's a developer at least, so he likely will be more familiar Jun 05 05:01:02 I'm not really sure what needs to be done to test the open webOS other than to build the image and make the device profile Jun 05 05:01:31 Saijin_Naib: if you want I can guide you through the process of porting webOS ports to it Jun 05 05:01:41 it's not that much work Jun 05 05:01:54 Really? Jun 05 05:01:58 if you're familiar with OE and building Android Jun 05 05:02:03 heh... Jun 05 05:02:03 why not Jun 05 05:02:09 That'd be a "no" to both Jun 05 05:02:15 :) Jun 05 05:02:20 I've never successfully gotten the VIA driver to compile under Linux, if that is any help Jun 05 05:02:24 something to learn then? Jun 05 05:02:29 Sure, why not, right? Jun 05 05:02:35 maybe with EricBlade help Jun 05 05:02:43 Then I don't have to give away my shiny new phone the day I get it Jun 05 05:02:59 Yeah, Eric has at least built webOS before so he's likely more familiar Jun 05 05:03:14 Is all the info available on the wiki in a "noob" friendly format? Jun 05 05:03:23 if not, maybe that'll be worth creating as you help me Jun 05 05:03:42 exactly that is what I wanted you to do Jun 05 05:03:51 I can help you with the steps, you do them and write them down Jun 05 05:03:55 Okay Jun 05 05:03:58 I can handle that Jun 05 05:04:10 I had tried to write some documentation before for webOS Jun 05 05:04:54 Saijin_Naib: you're on linux? Jun 05 05:05:51 No, currently Win 8.1 x64 Jun 05 05:06:01 My linux computer was a HP 2133 Jun 05 05:06:15 Last version of linux that supported it without headaches was so old... I got rid of it Jun 05 05:10:48 you need a Ubuntu 12.04 Jun 05 05:10:58 to make the build? Jun 05 05:11:29 right Jun 05 05:11:50 Hrm Jun 05 05:11:55 Maybe I can get one set up in a VM Jun 05 05:12:06 I think Eric may have one too Jun 05 05:14:38 Saijin_Naib: VirtualBox should be fine, though performance is laggy Jun 05 05:14:52 Yeah, I tried running the open webOS image in that today. Wooo. That was bad Jun 05 05:14:53 Due to the fact it needs to build a lot it can take ages Jun 05 05:15:08 3.2ghz Xeon, so I should hopefully be okay Jun 05 05:15:35 Running Ubuntu natively on a SSD of 128GB would be a lot better Jun 05 05:18:27 SSD is only 64gb, and it is my Windows image Jun 05 05:18:54 Ah ok... I just know that I tried it natively instead of VirtualBox and it made TONS of difference ;) Jun 05 05:19:13 Then again you can probably tweak the VirtualBox settings a bit so it runs quicker Jun 05 05:19:24 Native is always the solution :P Jun 05 05:19:33 If I had an extra drive, I'd do it in a heartbeat Jun 05 05:19:46 The last time gparted and I had speaks, it did not go well Jun 05 05:19:50 Then again I got an AMD octacore with 16GB ram so that helps as well nowadays ;) Jun 05 05:20:03 It ended up overlapping partition boundaries and messing with LVM info. Jun 05 05:20:22 Nice! How long does a compile take for you? Jun 05 05:20:51 I remember the old DOS days when I was using Doublespace/Drivespace and deleted the 40MB file that I believed was "useless" which turned out to be the image of the real 40MB harddrive LOL Jun 05 05:21:27 Saijin_Naib: Been a while since I looked at it don't remember, but it can be fast when needed ;) Jun 05 05:21:47 I usually take the public image or morphis' image for testing :) Jun 05 05:22:07 Ahh okay Jun 05 05:22:25 So if I'm trying to get it running on the ZTE Open C, I can't use the public image? Jun 05 05:27:52 Saijin_Naib: no Jun 05 05:28:03 Saijin_Naib: we're building device specific images so you have to build one for your device Jun 05 05:28:05 see http://webos-ports.org/wiki/Porting_Guide Jun 05 05:28:30 and http://webos-ports.org/wiki/Porting_Guide Jun 05 05:28:35 ah no Jun 05 05:28:38 http://webos-ports.org/wiki/Build_for_Maguro is the right one Jun 05 05:29:14 woooooo Jun 05 05:29:15 35gb? Jun 05 05:31:42 you're building an operating system completely :) Jun 05 05:32:26 True Jun 05 05:32:32 Compiled it must be much smaller Jun 05 05:35:19 about 150M Jun 05 05:35:58 Wow, quite the difference Jun 05 05:36:00 Hrm, alright Jun 05 05:36:10 have those documents pinned in my browser to read later Jun 05 05:38:02 Alright, I have to bed it Jun 05 05:38:11 Hopefully tomorrow brings an Open C to test! Jun 05 05:54:08 morphis: familiar with building android? o.O i only barely am familiar with how the webos system works. sort of. :P Jun 05 05:56:58 :D Jun 05 21:52:57 hey everyone Jun 05 21:53:53 how is webos working on maguro? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Jun 06 03:00:00 2014
