| Sazpaimon | i had a small world moment there too | 00:04 |
| Sazpaimon | the girl who cut my hair turned out to be someone i met at a party | 00:05 |
| Sazpaimon | which was kinda crazy | 00:05 |
| junglizer | my small world moments always turn out to be negative. Like "oh I know her! Well now she's my best friends ex-boyfriend & baby's momma" | 00:06 |
| Sazpaimon | unfortunately thats what happened | 00:06 |
| Sazpaimon | she kept looking up at me smiling afterwards | 00:07 |
| Sazpaimon | unfortunately for her i already have a girlfriend | 00:07 |
| Sazpaimon | unfortunately for me I felt bad so I didn't ask her for advice on what conditioner I should get her when I left | 00:07 |
| Sazpaimon | (she's always bitching that I don't get the right shampoo/conditioner) | 00:08 |
| Sazpaimon | sorry bitch I like head and shoulders | 00:08 |
| Creteil | well, I have asked something in #N9 but it look like all people sleeping in this channel, so I ask here, is there a way to rebuild sms's database tracker ? | 00:08 |
| Sazpaimon | Creteil, did you delete the cache folder? | 00:09 |
| Creteil | Actually, the messages application report no messages ... Sazpaimon, no, I have not deleted anything about cache ... | 00:09 |
| Sazpaimon | check if you have ~/.cache/tracker/meta.db | 00:10 |
| Sazpaimon | that's where SMSes are stored | 00:11 |
| Creteil | ls: can't open '/home/user/.cache/tracker/': Permission denied | 00:11 |
| Creteil | after switching to devel-su ... | 00:11 |
| Creteil | d---rwx--- 2 metadata metadata 4096 May 2 22:49 tracker | 00:12 |
| Creteil | strange permission ... | 00:12 |
| Creteil | look like another changed permission after pr1.2 (like ~/.calendar) | 00:13 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Creteil: go opensh | 00:13 |
| Creteil | sh: opensh: not found what I need to install to be able to use opensh ? | 00:13 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Creteil: inception and opensh | 00:13 |
| itsnotabigtruck | opensh basically gets you true root access | 00:14 |
| Sazpaimon | or | 00:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | which includes the CAP::dac_override permission that gives you full filesystem access | 00:14 |
| Sazpaimon | just try with develsh | 00:14 |
| Sazpaimon | which should work fine as well | 00:14 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, installing these 2 packages doesn't break anything ? | 00:14 |
| Sazpaimon | Creteil, try running develsh first | 00:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Sazpaimon: develsh isn't going to help if he wants to modify/delete anything | 00:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it only provides full read-only access | 00:14 |
| Sazpaimon | thats fine | 00:15 |
| Sazpaimon | you shouldnt need to modify meta.db anyway | 00:15 |
| itsnotabigtruck | though Creteil: no, it won't break anything | 00:15 |
| Creteil | -rw-r--r-- 1 user metadata 73322496 May 2 22:48 meta.db | 00:15 |
| itsnotabigtruck | just make sure you follow all the instructions, it won't work if you just install the 2 packages | 00:15 |
| Sazpaimon | in fact, its for the best that you dont modify meta.db | 00:15 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, thanks I'm gona installing these 2 packages ... | 00:15 |
| itsnotabigtruck | even if you don't need it you should get inception anyway :p | 00:15 |
| Sazpaimon | with PR1.3 around the corner, I dont know if reccomending inception is a good idea | 00:16 |
| Creteil | Sazpaimon, I doesn't need to modify meta.db, checked with develsh, it look like the file was here ... | 00:16 |
| Sazpaimon | yeah it's there and it looks like it has content | 00:17 |
| Creteil | Sazpaimon, so, now, since the file exist, what I need to do to see my sms coming back ? | 00:17 |
| Sazpaimon | check top and see if any tracker processes are running | 00:17 |
| *** tom__ has joined #harmattan | 00:17 | |
| Sazpaimon | if they are, they should be at the top of... top | 00:17 |
| Creteil | ~ # ps aux | grep track | grep -v grep | 00:17 |
| Creteil | 1286 user /usr/lib/tracker/tracker-miner-fs | 00:18 |
| Creteil | 1294 user /usr/lib/tracker/tracker-store | 00:18 |
| Sazpaimon | try killing those processes | 00:18 |
| Creteil | whell, they are not at top of top :-) | 00:18 |
| Creteil | K | 00:18 |
| Sazpaimon | have you tried reboting the phone btw? | 00:18 |
| Sazpaimon | *rebooting | 00:18 |
| Creteil | Sazpaimon, yes 3 times already ... | 00:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Sazpaimon: see pm | 00:20 |
| Creteil | Sazpaimon, you need to know I have installed FasterN9 : http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=83940&highlight=fast | 00:20 |
| *** risca has joined #harmattan | 00:21 | |
| Sazpaimon | i havent used fastern9, did it happen immediately after installing it? | 00:21 |
| Creteil | Sazpaimon, no | 00:23 |
| Creteil | Using it since the announce f the 0.0.2 version ... | 00:24 |
| Creteil | anyhow, is there a way to force the tracker rebuilding database process ? | 00:24 |
| CreamyG31337 | tracker-control -r will reset all databases | 00:25 |
| Sazpaimon | don't run that | 00:25 |
| Sazpaimon | it will also delete all contacts, feeds, and chats | 00:26 |
| Sazpaimon | ive found sometimes plugging the N9 in to USB will initiate a tracker rebuild though | 00:26 |
| CreamyG31337 | well if tracker-stats gives the list of mime types, you can tell it which one to reindex | 00:28 |
| Creteil | Oh, by the way I have the problem since today afternoon when the device shutdown since I have no more battery ... does it count ? | 00:29 |
| *** liar has joined #harmattan | 00:29 | |
| *** liar is now known as krnlyng | 00:29 | |
| Creteil | Sazpaimon, there is no valuable tip to rebuild the tracker meta.db ? | 00:31 |
| Creteil | Sazpaimon, I have managed to completely kill the 2 tracker processes with successive killall's ... | 00:33 |
| Creteil | ~ # ps aux | grep track | grep -v grep | 00:34 |
| Creteil | ~ # | 00:34 |

| CreamyG31337 | try tracker-control -m=text/plain | 00:40 |
| itsnotabigtruck | lol @ creteil/infobot | 00:41 |
| itsnotabigtruck | btw http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/t334g/wtf_thanks_ea/ | 00:41 |
| itsnotabigtruck | EA timebombed rock band for iphone | 00:41 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and it's still available for purchase, with no warning | 00:42 |
| Creteil | CreamyG31337, actually the device is rebooting, since I have no more answer when I have killed the 2 tracker processes ... | 00:42 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i.e. they'll happily take your $7 for an app that will then pop up a box saying it'll cease to work at the end of the month | 00:42 |
| CreamyG31337 | itsnotabigtruck, why doesn't that surprise me | 00:42 |
| CreamyG31337 | Creteil, sorry, i am just guessing anyways. not sure what mime type to put | 00:43 |
| Creteil | CreamyG31337, no problems ... | 00:43 |
| Creteil | ~ # tracker-control -m text/plain | 00:45 |
| Creteil | Reindexing mime types was successful | 00:45 |
| Creteil | But no more messages in the messages application :-( | 00:46 |
| CreamyG31337 | maybe it takes a while? | 00:46 |
| Creteil | Damn, what guys at nokia do ??? Why they didn't mimic the N900 behavior and just add the swipe ... | 00:46 |
| CreamyG31337 | tracker-control shows what its doing | 00:47 |

| Creteil | Can someone kill the f*****g developer making the mistake ... | 02:09 |
| itsnotabigtruck | *loose -> lose | 02:09 |
| merlin1991 | Creteil: afaik the gallery should reindex | 02:09 |
| *** Saviq has joined #harmattan | 02:09 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | wish i could help you with your tracker problem but i don't know the first thing about it | 02:10 |
| itsnotabigtruck | if it helps, remember that lose and loose are pronounced very differently | 02:10 |
| merlin1991 | itsnotabigtruck: the most important thing to know about tracker on harmattan is "never ever ever ever wipe it's db" | 02:10 |
| merlin1991 | some $%&()?/%&$ dev decided that some things like sms get stored there and are lost if you reset the db to reindex stuff | 02:10 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, nothing more I loose the gallery and sms's, don't know if there is another thing depend from tracker but at least I loose these 2 | 02:11 |
| Creteil | merlin1991, I have never wiped anything | 02:11 |
| Creteil | merlin1991, only just looking if files exists ... | 02:11 |
| Creteil | merlin1991, files exists and they are not empty ... | 02:12 |
| Creteil | At least contacts are here without troubles ... | 02:13 |
| Creteil | How does a consumers product can be out with this sort of bug ? | 02:13 |
| Creteil | I'm not a completely assisted user, I know well linux and derivatives but here, I don't understand how the N9 (out after the N900) can be so bugged like that ... | 02:14 |
| Creteil | It's like new developers starting working on the meego/harmattan project without looking back to the maemo ... | 02:15 |
| junglizer | to be fair, there are loads of problems w/ Android devices | 02:15 |
| Creteil | Even the mail client is lame | 02:15 |
| Creteil | fenix just doesn't permit to manage properly mails like under my old N900 ... | 02:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | my main problem with fenix is that it's both lacking in features and closed source | 02:16 |
| *** GAN800 has quit IRC | 02:17 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | so adding features requires completely renventing the wheel | 02:17 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and would probably miss stuff like exchange support | 02:17 |
| junglizer | itsnotabigtruck: alright, so I made it into the flasher, but it stopped recognizing it part way through (I think b/c of windows) then it saw it but it's at 0% battery | 02:18 |
| junglizer | itsnotabigtruck: now it's just blinking the status led | 02:18 |
| itsnotabigtruck | ok | 02:18 |
| itsnotabigtruck | can anyone confirm that it charges in that mode | 02:18 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i think atm you should just let it sit | 02:18 |
| junglizer | yeah | 02:18 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, why, so why they doesn't leave community managing their mistakes ... | 02:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: if you do flasher -i, does it still work | 02:19 |
| junglizer | well flasher is still running, it's saying "charging battery 0% (requires 11%) ctrl-c to exit" | 02:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | oh ok | 02:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | then leave it running i guess | 02:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | just don't touch anything | 02:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | hopefully it'll update as it goes so you can watch it | 02:20 |
| junglizer | well the windows drivers did get installed also | 02:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i hope the problem isn't a dead battery or something like that | 02:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | the battery can be replaced but it's not easy | 02:20 |
| junglizer | how can you get a battery anyhow? | 02:20 |
| junglizer | I'd probably just buy a damn new phone :/ | 02:21 |
| junglizer | N9, even with all this shit, probably. | 02:21 |
| itsnotabigtruck | there's a few parts shops that sel them | 02:21 |
| Creteil | junglizer, :-) | 02:21 |
| itsnotabigtruck | *sell they aren't that expensive, maybe $40 net | 02:21 |
| itsnotabigtruck | or even less | 02:21 |
| junglizer | just a royal pita to swap | 02:21 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but it requires completely splaying the thing out to swap out the battery | 02:21 |
| junglizer | probably worth it, not like it works w/o a battery anyways | 02:22 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it isn't necessarily a dead battery anyway | 02:22 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but it should have been charging before | 02:22 |
| merlin1991 | junglizer: are you out of warranty already? | 02:22 |
| merlin1991 | nokia care happily replace a dead battery in my n9 | 02:22 |
| junglizer | merlin1991: uh... I dunno. I live in the US | 02:22 |
| itsnotabigtruck | merlin1991: well, the N9 hasn't been out a year, so that's not possible...but he's in the US | 02:23 |
| merlin1991 | s/replace/replaced/ | 02:23 |
| infobot | merlin1991 meant: nokia care happily replaced a dead battery in my n9 | 02:23 |
| Creteil | On my side I have and just received last week the one I ordered for my girlfriend anniversary ... Actually she use a Nokia E7, I hope she can use the N9 like the E7 for same usage ... | 02:23 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and nokia gives US customers a big fuck you | 02:23 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also nokia care doesn't actually exist in the US | 02:23 |
| junglizer | If I reaaaalllly wanted to go through the hassle I bet I could get some friends in Brazil to send it in | 02:24 |
| itsnotabigtruck | they do offer ship-in warranty service but they won't support the N9 | 02:24 |
| Creteil | Damned empty gallery after a trip in spain with my mother ... | 02:24 |
| Creteil | F**K !!! | 02:24 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Creteil: the photos are stored in MyDocs/DCIM iirc | 02:25 |
| itsnotabigtruck | just copy them out of there | 02:25 |
| itsnotabigtruck | photos aren't stored in tracker | 02:25 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and try not to get so emotional about this, yeesh | 02:25 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, doesn't something like 'find . * -type f -exec touch {} \;' can do the trip ? | 02:26 |
| Creteil | Don't know what triggered the tracker re-indexing of things on this F******g device ... :-) | 02:27 |
| *** Saviq has quit IRC | 02:27 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: is it up to 1%? | 02:28 |
| junglizer | no | 02:28 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also hopefully you're connecting it directly to your pc | 02:28 |
| itsnotabigtruck | not like a keyboard usb port or something | 02:28 |
| junglizer | yes, right in the side | 02:28 |
| junglizer | using the N9 cable | 02:28 |
| merlin1991 | Creteil: -exec is not in the messybox find :/ | 02:29 |

| Creteil | Let me see how the device react if I take a new photo ... | 02:33 |
| *** pawky|2 has quit IRC | 02:34 | |
| junglizer | oh snaps! | 02:35 |
| junglizer | itsnotabigtruck: I have the NOKIA logo | 02:35 |
| Creteil | damn, just looking the gallery photo one by one in the preview from the photo apps let me see images ... | 02:37 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: hm, is that a change from before? | 02:37 |
| itsnotabigtruck | what does flasher say niow | 02:37 |
| junglizer | itsnotabigtruck: well it was just sitting there, so I decided to hold the power button, probably about 10 seconds or so | 02:38 |
| itsnotabigtruck | merlin1991: try find -print0 | xargs -0 | 02:38 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: ah ok | 02:38 |
| junglizer | I heard the dooot-dooot noise that Windows made | 02:38 |
| itsnotabigtruck | does flasher connect now | 02:38 |
| itsnotabigtruck | you need to catch it right when the bootloader is executing in order to put it into flash mode | 02:38 |
| junglizer | not now, but it gave me some messages and I saw the USB icon pop up on the screen | 02:38 |
| Creteil | rahhhhhhh !!!!! | 02:39 |
| itsnotabigtruck | you need to be running flasher -i before you mess with the phone, that way it connects at the right time | 02:39 |
| Creteil | -rw-r--r-- 1 user metadata 73322496 May 2 23:41 meta.db | 02:39 |
| Creteil | ^^^ before something ... | 02:39 |
| junglizer | itsnotabigtruck: does it charge in this state? | 02:39 |
| Creteil | -rw-r--r-- 1 user metadata 1199104 May 3 01:34 meta.db | 02:39 |
| Creteil | ^^^ after something ... | 02:39 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: i think so, what's it doing now | 02:40 |
| itsnotabigtruck | just run flasher -i and ask questions later | 02:40 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it'll wait until it can connect anyway | 02:40 |
| junglizer | yeah, flasher i is running | 02:40 |
| Creteil | It's like a joke ... | 02:40 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: ok, so did it stall on NOKIA with the usb logo? | 02:40 |
| junglizer | phone is just sitting w/ teh screen on and NOKIA desplaying | 02:40 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Creteil: uh oh | 02:40 |
| Creteil | I don't know what causing this meta.db corruption ... | 02:40 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: ok, hm | 02:40 |
| itsnotabigtruck | hold the power button until it does something | 02:41 |
| junglizer | okay, progress! | 02:41 |
| itsnotabigtruck | when flasher -i gives you your current firmware and exits that means it's ready to flash | 02:41 |
| junglizer | sort of, lol | 02:41 |
| junglizer | it did all that, but now it's back to it's old flashing LED tricks | 02:42 |
| junglizer | but it says battery is at 4% | 02:42 |
| itsnotabigtruck | ok | 02:42 |
| itsnotabigtruck | lame | 02:42 |
| itsnotabigtruck | well, leave it sitting for longer then | 02:42 |
| junglizer | oh god damn, I had to fiddle with it :/ | 02:42 |
| junglizer | I ASSumed that it wouldn't be charging while blinking like before | 02:43 |
| junglizer | right as I mucked w/ it, the battery level jumped up to 5% | 02:43 |
| itsnotabigtruck | what kind of blinking are you talking about | 02:44 |
| itsnotabigtruck | pulsing means charging | 02:44 |
| junglizer | alright, looks like I got it charging via USB. dpesm | 02:44 |
| itsnotabigtruck | if it blinks sharply every second or so, that means update mode | 02:44 |
| itsnotabigtruck | "it blinks" doesn't say much | 02:44 |
| itsnotabigtruck | because it always blinks | 02:44 |
| junglizer | *doesn't appear to be pulsing | 02:45 |
| itsnotabigtruck | hm | 02:45 |
| itsnotabigtruck | btw how did you get it into this state, anyway | 02:45 |
| itsnotabigtruck | failed flash? | 02:45 |
| itsnotabigtruck | deep discharge? | 02:45 |
| junglizer | 1sec | 02:45 |
| Creteil | DAMN !!! | 02:47 |
| Creteil | Rebooted, and no more contacts right now ... | 02:48 |
| Creteil | I think I really need help to recover from this step before I launch the device by the window ... | 02:48 |
| junglizer | okay back, had to take a call | 02:49 |
| junglizer | itsnotabigtruck: which state? | 02:49 |
| junglizer | I did a flasher -i, rebooted the phone. This detects it, and quits the flasher | 02:50 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: the state of it being pretty much kaputt, lol | 02:50 |
| itsnotabigtruck | ok, well, you need to wait until it's charged enough that it'll let you flash | 02:50 |
| junglizer | oh I have no idea, I'm assuming it just completely died | 02:50 |
| itsnotabigtruck | which i guess is 11% | 02:50 |
| junglizer | the guide recommends 50 I think | 02:50 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i mean, i imagine you'd have to do something unusual to make it do this | 02:50 |
| junglizer | well you wouldn't think a firefox update would fuck your phone either, would you? LOL | 02:51 |
| itsnotabigtruck | what does hte firefox update have to do with anything | 02:51 |
| Creteil | I see all things disappearing one after one ... No more videos and no more musics right now ... | 02:51 |
| Creteil | Is it a joke §? | 02:52 |
| Creteil | Is it a joke ? | 02:52 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Creteil: oh get over it :| | 02:52 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i mean, data loss sucks | 02:52 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but your photos, music, video, etc. aren't gone | 02:52 |
| junglizer | Firefox was updating, but hung. So I killed the updater application and when I rebooted my phone next it was hosed | 02:52 |
| itsnotabigtruck | your messages and contacts might be and that sucks | 02:52 |
| itsnotabigtruck | do you know what provoked this? | 02:52 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but anyway, it's not like everything is lost, and you should have stuff like contacts backed up anyway | 02:53 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, it just sux | 02:53 |
| Creteil | How we can lose data without knowing what provoked this ? | 02:54 |
| Creteil | And why Nokia doesn't release a fix quickly ??? | 02:55 |
| Creteil | I have not noticed something like that with my N900 | 02:56 |
| Creteil | Ok, another question right now ... Since I have to admit Nokia F****D my data (at least contacts, sms's, mms's ...), what I need to do before completely flash the device ??? | 02:58 |
| Creteil | I know how to flash, by the way what I need to save before and how ? | 02:58 |
| Enforcer | iirc, the built in backup app doesnt backup sms/mms/im ? | 02:59 |
| itsnotabigtruck | well, you probably need to do a flash of both eMMC and main | 02:59 |
| itsnotabigtruck | so you need to back up everything you care about | 02:59 |
| itsnotabigtruck | especially stuff in your mydocs folder | 02:59 |
| itsnotabigtruck | like your phoros | 02:59 |
| Creteil | Even on the comprehensive n9 flashing guide on TMO it's not clear, I mean they focus on how to flash but not on how to backup ... (I have already flashed the other one I have ordered for my girlfriend without any data to save before ...) ... | 03:01 |
| Creteil | On this device, Nokia clearly made big mistake in terms of data backup & flash imho ... | 03:02 |
| Creteil | I don't really understand what does the backup option do ... | 03:02 |
| Enforcer | backs up certain stuff to a .backups folder iirc | 03:03 |
| Creteil | Enforcer, you must admit at least even your answer is not clear :-) it's like everything is not clear on this device :-) | 03:04 |
| Enforcer | /home/user/MyDocs/.backups | 03:04 |
| Enforcer | i'm 99% sure it doesnt backup conversations ('Messages') | 03:05 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Enforcer: he's probably going to flash the emmc | 03:05 |
| itsnotabigtruck | so the stuff needs to be backed up OFF THE N9 | 03:06 |
| Creteil | Enforcer, now if I use the backup function and after that use the flash of both eMMC and main, does the .backup directory removed by the procedure ? | 03:06 |
| Creteil | ah | 03:06 |
| Creteil | yes !!! | 03:06 |
| Creteil | thanks itsnotabigtruck | 03:06 |
| Creteil | this answering my question ... | 03:06 |
| Enforcer | everything under MyDocs is the EMMC | 03:07 |
| itsnotabigtruck | ugh | 03:07 |
| itsnotabigtruck | youtube apparently doesn't allow you to buffer an entire video anymore | 03:07 |
| Creteil | so, reading many threads on TMO about pr1.2 flashing, I see many answer saying for many bugs really fixed by pr1.2 we need to flash main + emmc ... | 03:07 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i load the page, pause the vid, and it stops loading | 03:08 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i seek back to the beginning and play and it starts loading again, but only seconds ahead | 03:08 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also seeking back itself resets the buffer | 03:08 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, it's one of the less important trouble I see about this device :-) | 03:08 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i was talking about youtube w/ flash on the pc btw, not the N9 :p | 03:09 |
| itsnotabigtruck | anyway, yeah, you should probably upgrade to pr1.2 with a full flash in all cases | 03:09 |
| itsnotabigtruck | upgrading through the update system is kind of hit or miss | 03:09 |
| itsnotabigtruck | sorry about your data loss, a lot of people here really don't like tracker because of stuff like this | 03:09 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it's an interesting concept but badly implemented | 03:10 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, I was reluctant about full flashing since pr1.2, but now I have no more options, look like I in the way to flash main + emmc | 03:10 |
| Enforcer | why flash emmc? | 03:10 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Enforcer: for one it'll obliterate any b0rked tracker database left behind | 03:11 |
| Creteil | hope the surprise of pr1.3 is the fix for all these problems/implementations ... | 03:11 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and a lot of the pr1.2 upgrade problems are due to config files, tracker stuff, etc. being left behind | 03:11 |
| Enforcer | tracker db is under MyDocs? | 03:11 |
| itsnotabigtruck | precisely the stuff flashing emmc gets rid of | 03:11 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it's under ~ i believe | 03:11 |
| itsnotabigtruck | ~user and ~user/MyDocs are both eliminated with the emmc image afaik | 03:11 |
| infobot | itsnotabigtruck: okay | 03:11 |
| junglizer | itsnotabigtruck: Yay! Flashing | 03:11 |
| itsnotabigtruck | whoops, lol | 03:12 |
| itsnotabigtruck | ~user | 03:12 |
| infobot | user is, like, currently detached. Talk to this user upon their return. You will now be ignored. [HackFactor Elite 2.0], or a synonym for moron | 03:12 |
| Enforcer | /dev/mmcblk0p3 == /home (2GB) | 03:12 |
| itsnotabigtruck | ~user and ~user/MyDocs | 03:12 |
| infobot | user and ~user/mydocs are both eliminated with the emmc image afaik | 03:12 |
| itsnotabigtruck | lol | 03:12 |
| Enforcer | /dev/mmcblk0p1 == /home/user/MyDocs (53.7GB) | 03:13 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Enforcer: yep | 03:13 |
| Enforcer | so anything under home is emmc | 03:13 |
| Creteil | And a new s**t occur :-) since I want to benefit the pr1.2 quickly I have flashed the version 006 in case of the original 005 of my device ... | 03:13 |
| Enforcer | but MyDocs is much bigger than the rest of /home | 03:13 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Creteil: if you were on PR1.1, you should flash PR1.2 001 | 03:13 |
| Enforcer | err, 005? | 03:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | afaik 006 gets updates no faster than 005 | 03:14 |
| Creteil | now I need to launch navifirm from my mother slow dsl connection to feetch pr1.2 version 005 ... | 03:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | however, 001, 005, 006, and 009 all get updates pretty fast | 03:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | 100 and higher takes forever to get updates, you don't want those | 03:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | 003 is the china version, you don't want that either | 03:14 |
| Enforcer | 299 ftw | 03:14 |
| itsnotabigtruck | 299 not ftw :p | 03:14 |
| Creteil | itsnotabigtruck, I know how to flash, it's just the files I need to download ... | 03:15 |
| Creteil | from a slow connection ... | 03:15 |
| Creteil | I'm on vacation at my mother home ... | 03:15 |
| itsnotabigtruck | junglizer: so did it work? | 03:15 |
| junglizer | YES YES YES! | 03:15 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i'm guessing that's a yes | 03:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | lol | 03:16 |
| junglizer | yes | 03:16 |
| Creteil | look like :-) | 03:16 |
| Creteil | ehehehehe | 03:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | now get this https://endno.de/~itsnotabigtruck/inception/ | 03:16 |
| Creteil | good to know someone can be happy with this device :-) | 03:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also get this http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=82715 | 03:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | if you get apps for meego, you can install ad-hac through there | 03:17 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and this too http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=83357 though setting a overclock that's too high is a good way to corrupt your tracker and other stuff and have to reflash like creteil is doing :p | 03:18 |
| itsnotabigtruck | seems like many people have had good results with a mild 100 MHz overclock | 03:18 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and no overvolting | 03:18 |
| Creteil | Don't remember, does the N9 can be accessed in usb host mode when I turn it off and connect it to my computer via usb cable ? | 03:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | Creteil: you can put it in mass storage mode while it's turned on, if that's what you mean | 03:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | when powered down, it only charges | 03:21 |
| Creteil | ok | 03:21 |
| itsnotabigtruck | the N9 itself can't be put into host mode (yet, anyway) but i don't think that's what you meant | 03:21 |
| Creteil | sorry s/usb host mode/usb mass storage/ | 03:22 |
| Creteil | by chance I have leave the 2 files with 006 version on my computer !!! | 03:22 |
| Creteil | no need to reload 006 version (now I have already 006 flashed, so cannot downgrade to the 005 version ...) . | 03:23 |

| Arie | tgalal: I just wanted to know why wazapp is a stand alone app vs. a telepathy plugin? | 05:20 |
| tgalal_ | Arie: because nokia's documentation for harmattan is SHIT and there were no guarantees I'd be able to achieve many of whatsapp's features as a telepathy plugin. features that are not even supported by any of the existent protocol plugins even as a proof of concept | 05:26 |
| tgalal_ | message delivery statuses, sending media, sending location, user typing and others | 05:26 |
| Enforcer | yet there is plenty of telepathy plugins currently? | 05:27 |
| Enforcer | does wazapp allow sms fallback? | 05:28 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i think telepathy is fairly well documented, after all it's not a nokia project anyway | 05:29 |
| itsnotabigtruck | as for accounts plugins, that's another story | 05:29 |
| itsnotabigtruck | if you need any help with that just ask | 05:29 |
| itsnotabigtruck | the best approach for the accounts plugin probably depends on how authentication in whatsapp actually works | 05:30 |
| itsnotabigtruck | tgalal_ ^ | 05:30 |
| itsnotabigtruck | one of the benefits of the telepathy approach is that it would be possible to slot it in on a linux system and use whatsapp from there | 05:31 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it's a real shame the accounts stuff is so poorly documented and difficult to use, a lot of apps could take advantage of it | 05:32 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but few devs have taken it on | 05:32 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i tried to fix up aard_'s account plugin for xmpp (non-google-talk) and make it use SignOn for authentication, turns out it's rather difficult and i put that project on the backburner :( | 05:33 |
| itsnotabigtruck | though i did get the SignOn stuff working eventually | 05:33 |
| tgalal_ | itsnotabigtruck: it's like they cancelled documenting it, it starts nice and informative, then nothing, emptyness, a black whole | 05:33 |
| tgalal_ | hole | 05:33 |
| itsnotabigtruck | tgalal_: well, again, if you're having trouble you need to ask, because if you're going to get info about it anywhere it's probably here | 05:34 |
| itsnotabigtruck | the main source of info is the libaccounts-ui source code on gitorious | 05:34 |
| tgalal_ | itsnotabigtruck: yeah I know I did get it to work eventually so it's okay now | 05:34 |
| tgalal_ | i'm almost there | 05:35 |
| tgalal_ | lol | 05:35 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also somewhere on the nokia developer site is the code for the dropbox account plugin, sharing plugin, and signon plugin | 05:35 |
| itsnotabigtruck | or some variant of it anyway | 05:35 |
| tgalal_ | no signon for python | 05:35 |
| itsnotabigtruck | no anything for python, if you want to integrate with the harmattan system stuff python isn't an option | 05:36 |
| itsnotabigtruck | besides, aren't you a qt ambassador? | 05:36 |
| itsnotabigtruck | you should live and breathe c++ and qt :p | 05:36 |
| tgalal_ | but I am using qt | 05:36 |
| tgalal_ | and now I know I should have used c++ | 05:37 |
| tgalal_ | oh wait | 05:37 |
| tgalal_ | how did u know I'm a qt ambassador :D | 05:37 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it's not terribly difficult to find... | 05:38 |
| Arie | tgalal_: you also work for Nokia now too if I'm not mistaken | 05:38 |

| itsnotabigtruck | it might be advisable to use SignOn | 06:14 |
| Arie | tgalal_: congratulations | 06:15 |
| tgalal_ | itsnotabigtruck: will I be able to use SignOn from python ? | 06:16 |
| *** adlan has quit IRC | 06:16 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | tgalal_: doubt it, but it does provide the ability to protect credentials with aegis | 06:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | though that isn't exactly strong protection...but it does make it significantly more difficult to grab passwords anyway | 06:17 |
| Tronic | tgalal_: You should make a plugin instead of stand-alone app. | 06:18 |
| Tronic | The beauty of Harmattan is that everything is integrated with the OS instead of zillion stand-alone apps. | 06:18 |
| tgalal_ | itsnotabigtruck: ah I wouldn't worry about protecting whatsapp's credentials. how whatsapp registers and logins is shit anyway | 06:18 |
| tgalal_ | it's so damn insecure that I can literally setup a website where people can use it to hijack each others accounts | 06:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | does it use SSL or some other crypto layer | 06:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | if it does but it's optional (e.g. like most xmpp servers) it would be advisable to lock it to on | 06:20 |
| tgalal_ | itsnotabigtruck: it's not about what it uses, it's about how it does it, it has a flaw, but I'm not exposing it just yet | 06:21 |
| tgalal_ | Tronic: do you know how many times per day I get told that :) | 06:25 |
| itsnotabigtruck | well, that's because it's true...of course, it is your app and your discretion | 06:27 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but now people who insist on an integrated experience have to reinvent the wheel | 06:27 |
| itsnotabigtruck | the standalone app approach is usually not a preferred option, it's just the only option on most platforms | 06:28 |
| Arie | tgalal_: after you release the source, we have to re-engineer the whatsapp client as a plugin | 06:28 |
| tgalal_ | Arie: not really, I might have no problem participating in that | 06:31 |
| Arie | tgalal_: you're saying you will participate in that? | 06:32 |
| tgalal_ | Arie: I said maybe :P | 06:33 |
| Arie | tgalal_: Will you take itsnotabigtruck's help? | 06:34 |
| itsnotabigtruck | eh, i'm not committing to putting work into whatsapp stuff :p | 06:35 |

| Arie | tgalal: why is whatsapp so important? | 06:56 |
| CreamyG31337 | there you go, you owe me :) | 06:56 |
| tgalal | it's not "important", I just use it alot | 06:57 |
| Arie | tgalal: is it expensive to text in egypt or is gtalk not used? | 06:57 |
| *** hahlo has joined #harmattan | 06:59 | |
| tgalal | Arie: it's not so expensive to text, and gtalk is used, although not very popular there. I don't know what's so special about, maybe because it was originally created for mobile communication so it packs features suitable for mobile phones, that are not found in others | 07:01 |
| Arie | tgalal: I'm a us N9 user, my family and friends mostly use iphones or android, my friends outside of the us are on gtalk, to me the idea of whatsapp and it's insecurity doesn't make me eager to use it at all | 07:03 |
| itsnotabigtruck | tgalal: except almost all of the "killer" whatsapp features you mention can be done with MMS | 07:03 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and on the N9 delivery status reports are turned on by default (which i think you mentioned as important) | 07:04 |
| tgalal | itsnotabigtruck: so you're saying whatsapp is similar to using a combination of SMS, MMS, and perhaps additional method like gtalk for groups convs | 07:06 |
| itsnotabigtruck | tgalal: well, i'm saying it's ~= to the first two | 07:07 |
| itsnotabigtruck | which is intentional, whatsapp is deliberately trying to be a low-cost internet replacement for sms and mms | 07:07 |
| *** Transformer has joined #harmattan | 07:07 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | so the feature set directly mirrors sms and mms | 07:07 |
| *** Transformer has left #harmattan | 07:08 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | i mean, the entire selling point is that it's a drop-in replacement for SMS | 07:08 |
| itsnotabigtruck | that doesn't even require using a new addressing scheme | 07:08 |
| itsnotabigtruck | otherwise there isn't much novel to it | 07:08 |
| *** mschlens has quit IRC | 07:10 | |
| CreamyG31337 | maybe it can do mms better than my provider, my messags always get "formatted for my device" which makes them like 64x64 pixels | 07:12 |

| rigo | Elleo, is there a dpkg-URI for Apps for Meego that I can add? (spares me the searching if you have it handy) | 11:22 |
| Elleo | rigo: not sure, the best idea is probably to install the apps for meego client though | 11:22 |
| Elleo | that way you can see reviews, ratings, and help with community QA though | 11:23 |
| rigo | from ovi store? | 11:23 |
| Elleo | which you can get from http://apps.formeego.org/n9client | 11:23 |
| rigo | ah | 11:23 |
| rigo | will do, review is important | 11:23 |
| Elleo | QA is especially helpful, it needs 6 positive community QA tests to move from testing into stable | 11:23 |
| Elleo | currently it has 2 positive and 1 negative, although I think the negative one is from someone who doesn't quite understand the form (since its all positive apart from the option to allow it into the store) | 11:24 |

| Elleo | yeah, I plan to; also want to add a count down for the number of characters left as well | 12:48 |
| Elleo | but need to change the design a bit for that, since the standard qt toolbard element I'm using at the bottom doesn't expand to be bigger very well | 12:48 |
| Elleo | so I need to replace it with something custom | 12:48 |
| rigo | I think so, the twitter client gives you three lines once you tap into it and re-collapses once you tap again outside the edit window | 12:49 |

| DocScrutinizer | deram: nope, the ABS MAX doesn't say it can operate like normal. It just means it won't break | 14:35 |
| deram | DocScrutinizer: ok. | 14:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | in http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/bq24153.pdf there's a note "VOVP 6.5V" which I read as overvoltage protection kicking in at 6.5V and then your charging will get stopped | 14:38 |
| deram | ok.. just checked that Vin min is specified as 2.7V, so would couple of 1.5V cells be enough to charge? | 14:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | with 4 pcs alkaline primary cells however... | 14:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | deram: I doubt that. AIUI bq2415x are step-down converters for charging from USB | 14:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | so your input voltage has to be higher than battery voltage | 14:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | I.E >4.5V | 14:40 |

| deram | DocScrutinizer: yeah I know, I'll just stick with my plan with 5V requlator + 9V battery, as those are more handy than separate cells | 14:46 |
| DocScrutinizer | but also have max 250mAh | 14:46 |
| DocScrutinizer | sufficient for ~30min operation of device | 14:46 |
| *** bjarne_ is now known as bjarneh | 14:47 | |
| DocScrutinizer | while a AAA has up to 2000mAh I'd guess | 14:47 |
| deram | hmm.. is it that bad.. well it is 6 AAAA cels after all.. | 14:48 |
| DocScrutinizer | 4 pcs AA NiMH make a nice 2200mAh 4.8V battery, rechargable | 14:48 |
| deram | but that one is huge to be carried around in pocket just in case | 14:49 |
| DocScrutinizer | for that purpose I usually get original battery errr, sorry wrong chan, wrong device | 14:50 |
| deram | lol | 14:50 |
| DocScrutinizer | there are relatively convenient formfactor external USB battery packs | 14:51 |
| DocScrutinizer | e.g http://www.google.de/products/catalog?q=cabstone+solar+charger&oe=UTF-8&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=13371631769264447576 | 14:52 |
| DocScrutinizer | which, despite the name, can get charged also via USB, like your phone. And has a 1000mAh LiIon battery | 14:53 |
| DocScrutinizer | delivers proper 5V | 14:53 |
| deram | does it deliver enough for N9 to charge... I have one Philis branded powerpack, that does not charge at all | 14:54 |
| DocScrutinizer | yes, it works (you just have to take care about shorting D+/D-, as usual) | 14:54 |
| deram | it says it has 350mA, which used to be enough for couple of previous phones | 14:54 |
| DocScrutinizer | even if you don'T short D+-, device still shall charge @ 100mA | 14:58 |
| deram | "Not enough power from the USB in order to charge the device" | 14:58 |
| DocScrutinizer | this will result from device pulling higher current from USB than the USB battery pack can provide. Voltage drops (possibly even to a total cutout), and device detects low voltage on USB and pops up this msg | 15:00 |
| *** psycho_oreos has quit IRC | 15:01 | |

| DocScrutinizer | and the nice thing: it never gets sour when even when you don't recharge for months and years, as long as you keep it somewhere where daylight occasionally powers the PV-cell | 15:03 |
| DocScrutinizer | complete charging in direct sunlight will take like one day however | 15:03 |

| DocScrutinizer | "value X of MAX n" mean value=n is WORST case and already at border to failure | 15:27 |
| DocScrutinizer | SAFE is trying to push n all the way in the opposite direction | 15:27 |

| *** tgalal has quit IRC | 15:28 | |
| *** beford has quit IRC | 15:29 | |
| DocScrutinizer | when noobs hear "short" they immediately think "fuse blows, blackout, sparks and smoke", so they prefer to go for the "MAX 200 Ohms" solution, as it feels more technically evolved and less scary | 15:32 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonni: I suggest you edit http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1189766&postcount=11 and delete the " (or add 200Ohms)" | 15:33 |
| deram | well, usually the best is to go somewhere between the max and the other end, so I'd say 100Ohm wuld be the preferred | 15:35 |
| DocScrutinizer | NO | 15:35 |
| DocScrutinizer | http://makergeek.co.uk/2010/01/31/n900-charging-from-dumb-charger/ | 15:35 |
| DocScrutinizer | deram: your idea is again false assumptions based on "common sense" and spec speak illiteracy | 15:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | your idea was correct IF there was any minimum resistance mentioned | 15:37 |
| DocScrutinizer | like MIN 1R MAX 200R - yes we should use sth near 100.5R for optimum | 15:38 |
| deram | but if your specs says it should be exactly 200Ohm, and some other specs says max 200Ohm, which one is wrong | 15:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | if however there's only one extreme mentioned, you best go all the way away from that extreme | 15:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | deram: HUH? | 15:39 |
| deram | "Page 7 shows the connection, “A Dedicated Charging Port is required to short the D+ and D- lines with a resistance of RDCHG_DAT”, page 29 specifies max 200 ohms across D+ and D-. Although the wording on page 7 suggests it should be exactly 200 ohms… Also on Page 29, a minimum of 2 MEGA ohms of resistance between D+ and ground or vbus. That is, not connected together at all." | 15:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | "my" spec says "max 200R" | 15:39 |
| deram | well, something is wrong in the specs if that part is not meaning the 200 is the correct | 15:40 |

| DocScrutinizer | deram: nope, the specs are absolutely correct when stating "**short** with a resitance <=200R" | 15:56 |
| deram | DocScrutinizer: ok. didn't read other than that part, which seemed little contradictory | 15:56 |
| DocScrutinizer | for the EE this clearly reads as "make sure your wires and contacts don't sum up to >200R, when shorting the D+/-" | 15:56 |
| *** mece1 has quit IRC | 15:58 | |
| DocScrutinizer | IOW it means that the spec for a device, to test for fastcharger, is: "probe resistance between D+ and D-. Consider each value lower than 200R as fastcharger idication" | 15:58 |
| DocScrutinizer | indication* | 15:59 |
| DocScrutinizer | from that you easily can see why using a 200R to short the wires is a BAD idea | 15:59 |

| DocScrutinizer | I did, a gazilion times | 16:00 |

| DocScrutinizer | for the EE this clearly reads as "make sure your wires and contacts don't sum up to >200R, when shorting the D+/-" | 16:02 |
| deram | some might think there is delicate driver circuitry in that bus, so just shorting it might damage that... but if that is how it is designed, then those canät be harmed like that | 16:03 |
| DocScrutinizer | "connect with a cable of MIN 10A power rating" doesn't mean "find the thinnest cable that just barely can handle 10A" | 16:04 |
| DocScrutinizer | "short with a resistance of MAX 200R" doesn't mean find a resistor as close to 200R as possible to short this | 16:05 |
| deram | yes, that is true | 16:05 |
| DocScrutinizer | for the cable, how think may it get to make you think "duh, it's too strong, it might break the device that needs a MIN 10A rated cable"? | 16:09 |
| DocScrutinizer | likewise for the resisance of the short: how low may you go when it says "200R MAX"? of course as low as you can | 16:10 |
| DocScrutinizer | think of a tunnel with a sign "2,2m max headroom" | 16:11 |

| DocScrutinizer | you won't want to go as close to 2,2m height as possible with your car, and you don't worry if your Lamborghini maybe is too flat | 16:13 |
| DocScrutinizer | unless there's another sign "not allowed for vehicles less than 110cm high" | 16:14 |
| *** gabriel9|work has joined #harmattan | 16:14 | |

| DocScrutinizer | jonni: I'm not sure I see this correctly on your pictures over at http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=83519&page=2, but is it true your crappy flex adapter is using BLACK and green for D+/- ? | 16:34 |
| DocScrutinizer | it quite looks like they swapped black and white, I hope they did on other end of adapter as well ;-) | 16:35 |
| jonni | yep, there is no universal standard on those colours :) | 16:35 |
| DocScrutinizer | there is | 16:36 |

| *** ab has quit IRC | 16:57 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | and regarding coreutils, i'd like to see somebody make a harmattanized deb that won't break stuff | 16:57 |
| itsnotabigtruck | or something | 16:58 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also it needs to be incepted | 16:58 |
| Elleo | itsnotabigtruck: yeah, it seems a bit odd that the default for everything is positive apart from the most important one | 16:58 |
| itsnotabigtruck | because otherwise things will break if some trusted shell script runs a utility program | 16:58 |
| Elleo | unfortunately I don't know who the guy is that didn't tick the checkbox, and so have no way of getting in touch to see if he really had a reason it shouldn't be included or if he just made a mistake :/ | 17:00 |

| rigo | what are people using to manage packages except apt-get on the N9 phone? | 18:32 |
| itsnotabigtruck | rigo: pkgmgr works for "user packages" | 18:32 |
| itsnotabigtruck | apt-get install x -> pkgmgr install -p x | 18:32 |
| itsnotabigtruck | dpkg -i x.deb -> pkgmgr install-file -f x.deb | 18:33 |
| itsnotabigtruck | dpkg -r x -> pkgmgr uninstall -p x | 18:33 |
| *** arcean has joined #harmattan | 18:33 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | the benefit of using pkgmgr is that for GUI apps it makes the uninstall-from-home-screen feature work correctly | 18:33 |
| rigo | hey itsnotabigtruck :) I wasn't looking for a commandline tool, rather for something similar to aptitude | 18:33 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also using it avoids some problems with lockfiles (that pkgmgr actually causes :p) | 18:33 |
| itsnotabigtruck | oh... | 18:34 |
| itsnotabigtruck | meecatalog but it has ads now and it's closed source | 18:34 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i'd suggest just using the command line | 18:34 |
| * rigo is not religious about open/closed as long as it is non lock-in and standards compliant | 18:34 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | there's still the ad factor | 18:35 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and i've taken a hardline position on ads given how much they've ruined things on other phones | 18:35 |
| itsnotabigtruck | this ad is quite unobtrusive (it's a very small banner at the bottom of one of the screens) but i still don't like it | 18:36 |

| itsnotabigtruck | teleshoes: yes | 19:11 |
| itsnotabigtruck | well, sometimes | 19:12 |
| teleshoes | fuck | 19:12 |
| beford | really? | 19:12 |
| itsnotabigtruck | dependencies that are in the nokia repos are OK | 19:12 |
| teleshoes | oh | 19:12 |
| beford | I was going to submit an app that depended on imagemagick | 19:12 |

| itsnotabigtruck | i get the feeling almost everyone here's only interested in the 1st part | 19:13 |
| teleshoes | i just wanted to reach a wider base | 19:13 |
| SpeedEvil | I keep getting mail from Nokia about wanting to promote my Lumia apps | 19:14 |
| teleshoes | https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com ./ Packages | 19:15 |
| teleshoes | thats ok, right? | 19:15 |
| teleshoes | thats the main nokia repo | 19:15 |
| teleshoes | ? | 19:15 |
| teleshoes | apt-cache policy has that entry for all my dependencies | 19:15 |

| RST38h | Speed: so do I. funny. | 19:16 |
| beford | lumia apps? traitors! | 19:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | teleshoes: that's not a complete repo line | 19:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | there's 3 different built-in repos | 19:16 |
| teleshoes | yea, its whats reported from apt-cache policy | 19:16 |
| RST38h | considering that this dumb phone isn't even programmable in any real programminglanguage | 19:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | no, i meant the earlier part | 19:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it looks like you copied that from apt-get update | 19:16 |
| itsnotabigtruck | which shows the server not the repo | 19:16 |
| teleshoes | no, i copied it from apt-cache policy | 19:17 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but yeah, you can depend on stuff in apps and tools | 19:17 |

| teleshoes | does that look right? | 19:17 |
| itsnotabigtruck | yeah but you should probably take the SDK repo off your phone to avoid any trouble | 19:18 |
| teleshoes | i hate that shit | 19:18 |
| teleshoes | nokia doesnt expect me to develop n9 apps on the n9 | 19:18 |
| teleshoes | and so the sdk repo is half useless for pr 1.2 | 19:18 |
| teleshoes | is there a repo setup yet with binary packages? | 19:19 |
| teleshoes | for devel headers | 19:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | well, you really shouldn't, you should use scratchbox...but i mentioned that because you might depend on sdk repo stuff when you shouldn't | 19:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | and i don't think so :( | 19:19 |
| teleshoes | how well does scratchbox run on the n9? | 19:19 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it doesn't, you don't put it on the N9 | 19:19 |
| teleshoes | i, i | 19:19 |
| teleshoes | i know | 19:20 |
| teleshoes | i meant it | 19:20 |

| teleshoes | i like to develop on my phone | 19:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | well, why do you insist on it | 19:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it's a bad idea | 19:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | period | 19:20 |
| teleshoes | ....? | 19:20 |
| teleshoes | how can you say that? | 19:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i mean, i like the idea of being able to | 19:20 |
| teleshoes | its so convenient | 19:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | but practically it's kind of stupid | 19:20 |
| teleshoes | tiny little computer | 19:20 |

| teleshoes | btkb | 19:20 |
| teleshoes | i have a nice one | 19:20 |
| itsnotabigtruck | or you could carry around a laptop and program the proper way | 19:20 |
| teleshoes | laptops are expensive and heavy | 19:21 |
| itsnotabigtruck | preferably a thinkpad | 19:21 |
| teleshoes | yea | 19:21 |
| teleshoes | w520, here | 19:21 |
| teleshoes | the only computer with a nipple mouse | 19:21 |
| teleshoes | but i mean, programming on the train while going into the city to see friends | 19:21 |
| teleshoes | im not going to lug my 9lbs machine around | 19:22 |
| itsnotabigtruck | there's your problem, you bought a 9 lb laptop :p | 19:22 |
| teleshoes | but im totally cool with a 4oz pocket-friendly keyboard | 19:22 |
| teleshoes | i need a machine like that | 19:22 |
| teleshoes | for work | 19:22 |
| teleshoes | and i dont wanna buy another to fulfill a level of portability that i already have | 19:22 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i really don't get why people buy big heavy laptops | 19:22 |
| *** faenil has joined #harmattan | 19:23 | |
| itsnotabigtruck | that don't have the portability of a compact laptop nor the performance of a desktop | 19:23 |
| teleshoes | i mean, its not too heavy to take to the park and work every day | 19:23 |
| teleshoes | they do have MORE performance | 19:23 |
| itsnotabigtruck | more performance than a suitably specced desktop? er, no | 19:23 |
| teleshoes | no | 19:23 |
| itsnotabigtruck | laptop components are *always* behind the state of the art | 19:23 |
| teleshoes | more performance than a more portable machine | 19:23 |
| teleshoes | yes | 19:23 |
| itsnotabigtruck | it's the nature of portability | 19:23 |
| teleshoes | i know | 19:23 |
| teleshoes | i mean, theres the tradeoff between portability and performance | 19:24 |
| teleshoes | i love my sandy bridge 3.2 ghz quadcore processor | 19:24 |
| teleshoes | to pieces | 19:24 |
| itsnotabigtruck | right, but what i'm saying is that the entire point of a laptop is portability, so if you buy something that ends up being tethered down to your desk all the time anyway | 19:24 |
| itsnotabigtruck | you might as well do it right and get a beefy desktop for the same money | 19:24 |
| teleshoes | oh, i take it places | 19:24 |
| teleshoes | like the park | 19:24 |
| teleshoes | and the cafe | 19:24 |
| teleshoes | and a friends house to watch movies | 19:24 |
| teleshoes | on the too-large-but-at-least-really-high-dpi-screen | 19:25 |
| itsnotabigtruck | heh | 19:25 |
| teleshoes | its a lovely machine | 19:25 |
| teleshoes | its just not ok for walking around with all day | 19:25 |
| itsnotabigtruck | anyway, of course all that is beside the point in any case | 19:25 |

| itsnotabigtruck | Anssi138: it looks sort of like C but doesn't work like C in the slightest | 21:43 |
| itsnotabigtruck | also the standard library/DOM APIs/etc. are so awful and fragmented that you *need* a framework library like jquery for web page JS to be remotely usable | 21:44 |
| itsnotabigtruck | i think some of those frameworks have made people forget precisely how terrible JS is, but it becomes pretty obvious once you have to do something unusual | 21:44 |
| Khertan | itsnotabigtruck, i didn't say that html/js is a must ... i just will port what i ve already done for browser to other plateform by despite | 21:45 |
| Khertan | i can't buy all plateform i ll like to target | 21:45 |
| Anssi138 | itsnotabigtruck: my personal opinion is that is actually "interesting design" choice to combine c syntax and functional style. Causing endless issues. Coffee script style would be nicer syntax for it imho. | 21:45 |
| itsnotabigtruck | well, JS isn't a functional language...it just has some functional stuff bolted on that doesn't work like anyone would expect | 21:46 |
| itsnotabigtruck | like the endless surprises related to binding of the this variable in closures | 21:46 |
| Anssi138 | well it would have worked better in more functional syntax, it was i was thinking. Something like coffee script does. | 21:47 |
