silboI wanted to ask if enyone knows, how you can get the surrounding mobile towers01:02
silbotheyr MAC aadresses01:02
silbois there eny functions in the Maemo SDK api for that?01:03
*** Ken-Young has joined #maemo-devel01:04
silboI want to make an application that can position the client01:08
SpeedEvilthe current tower is exposed on DBUS01:12
SpeedEvilhowever01:12
SpeedEvilthere is no bublic way as far as I'm aware to get a list of available but never connected to towers.01:13
silbook, but the signal strength is also accessible?01:22
silbofor telling the distance from the tower01:22
Ken-Youngsilbo, Do you know about the file /var/lib/gconf/system/nokia/location/lastknown/%gconf.xml ?01:25
silbonope01:26
Ken-Youngsilbo, It contains the last derived position.01:26
silboon the globe?01:26
silboor from what01:27
silbodoes it position you between the towers or GPS?01:27
Ken-YoungFrom GPS (for sure) - I think from cell towers too.01:27
silboso it can tell me my position on the globe using cell towers?01:27
silbois that for sure?01:27
Ken-YoungI'm sure it gets any GPS position.   I've been told it will have the cell tower-derived position, if no GPS position is available, but I don't know that is definately correct.01:28
Ken-Youngs/definately/definitely'01:29
silbook that good enough i think, ill write my proposal for GSoC now xD01:29
silbothat is*01:30
Ken-Youngsilbo, It's probably better to interface with DBUS directly, but that file is a cheap and easy way to get started.01:32
silbook I understand, that is kind of the same situation like with linux Kernel01:32
silboyou better ask kernel for stuf01:32
silbonot read its output files01:33
silbois that correct if I say telephone profile to silent01:39
silbothis means no ring ring sound, when someone is calling01:39
silbowhat is the API for the GPS?01:43
*** Tuxprobe has quit IRC01:49
Ken-Youngsilbo, Download the source to GPSJini, and take a look.01:50
Ken-Youngoh - I think it's python.   Even easier!01:50
silbocan i get a link for that01:51
silbodidn't find  one01:51
Ken-Younghttp://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/gpsjinni/01:52
Ken-YoungOh wait, don't use that one.01:53
Ken-YoungUse this one: http://maemo.org/downloads/search/application.html?org_openpsa_products_search[1][property]=title&org_openpsa_products_search[1][constraint]=LIKE&org_openpsa_products_search[1][value]=gpsjinni&org_openpsa_products_search[2][property]=os&org_openpsa_products_search[2][constraint]=LIKE&org_openpsa_products_search[2][value]=Maemo5&fetch=Search01:53
Ken-YoungOr just go to the maemo.org download page, and search for GPSJinni01:54
* lcuk prefered the first one01:54
lcukfor size01:54
Ken-Youngit was OS200801:54
lcuki noticed also01:54
lcukbut that super long following link was scary01:55
Ken-YoungWell, just searching maemo.org for GPSJinni is easiest.01:55
lcukapt-get source gpsjinni01:55
silboand what API for the profile setting of the phone01:57

scooprokay, so what's the deal with installed-size? should that value be actually what goes into /usr etc. and *not* /opt, because now I have a big package that install a lot of stuff to /opt and having that in install-size fails the install because there is not enough room in root14:13
