joorinperhaps the wrong place to ask, but, is it possible to ask the dbus system which methods have been registered in it from a certain interface? or is it all about finding the documentation for the service im interested in and read there?00:55

joorinany suggestions for a resource where i can find all the GTK+ widgets enumerated with some pictures to show examples? im looking for a tabbed pane thingy and itd be nice to get an overview.15:22
joorinive found the hildon examples, https://vcs.maemo.org/svn/maemoexamples/trunk/hildon-examples/, but its kinf od hard to see what theyll do from code alone...15:23
joorinand no, at the moment Qt isnt interesting.15:25
amigadavejoorin: on the desktop, gtk-demo should be what you are looking for15:26
*** 36DAAJP8A has joined #maemo-devel15:26
joorinamigadave, i find no such app on my desktop.15:27
amigadavenot sure which package it might be in15:27
amigadavefor me, it comes with the gtk+ package15:27
joorinamigadave, ok. ill have a look at it. thank you.15:28
amigadavegtk2.0-examples on Ubuntu, by the looks of it15:28
lcukjoorin, http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/hildon/ch02.html15:28
joorinlcuk, thank you!15:28
lcuk:) more than welcome15:29
amigadavethose images are out of date though ;)15:29
lcukdoesnt matter gives the idea15:29
amigadavethe hildonmm examples are more recent, but i need to redo them: http://maemomm.garage.maemo.org/docs/tutorial/figures/15:29
lcukand clicking on each takes you to the api for them15:29
joorinbut, even thought this is useful, its kind of toplevel. id like to play aroudn with the tabbed subparticle in the font selector, for example.15:30
lcuksome people are never satisfied :p15:31
joorinbut i guess UTSL is whats the thing. ;)15:31
joorinlcuk, im picky. ;)15:31
joorinthis goes into bookmars nonetheless.15:31
joorinif anyone has any idea about how to decode the flags stored in gconf for internet connections id like that too. :)15:32
joorinim thinking about brute force, as in fiddling with settings, saving, looking, and diffing.15:32
joorinbut if its saved somewhere, id like to know.15:32
joorinif the information is avilable, that is.15:32
joorinand splelling is hard.15:32
joorinand i have to say i didnt know i would like thet linker flag -rpath-link as much as i did.15:34
joorinah, lookie: http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/gtk/GtkNotebook.html15:44
joorinjust what i was looking for. pictures do tell more than a thousand lines of code.15:44
jooringot to learn and do things today, indeed.15:46
joorinnow over to the sticky stuff, programming. ;)15:47
PavelI am trying to diagnose inappropriately high CPU/IO use when (I think) downloading certain types of files on the N900. Is there a utility that would log CPU and IO use by process over time?15:48
joorinpavel, define "inappropriate" in this context.15:49
lcukpavel batterygraph runs a daemon and logs to database showing lots of metrics and a pretty graph15:49
lcukbattery bars, percentage, voltage, charge cpu, on charge, network etc :)15:50
joorinpavel, userland processes try to grab as much time in the CPU as they can. yuo can always uce nice to make a process hog the CPU less15:50
csaavedrajoorin: there was a bug with some newer screenshots. Dave Neary had volunteered to prepare a patch to update the hildon docs but he got MIA.. https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462515:50
povbotBug 4625: Widget gallery is very out-of-date.15:50
joorincsaavedra, ok.15:50
*** DocScrutinizer51 has quit IRC15:51
joorinpavel, if its a matter or simple throttling of downloads, nice is a handy tool.15:51
joorinpavel, there are also some issues with Linux kernels not handling IO in a good way when it comes to desktop usage.15:52
*** Docscrutemp has joined #maemo-devel15:52
*** Docscrutemp is now known as DocScrutinizer5115:52
joorinpavel, but there are fixes, like the BrainFuck scheduler thats in the 2.6.33 kernel.15:52
lcukcsaavedra, i was speaking to albanc the other day about a mini gallery/test app to be able to make decent screenshots of how a theme would look - similar app could be used in this context too15:53

csaavedraif someone wants to go ahead and write something like gtk-demo I'd be OK with pushing it to hildon15:55
* lcuk nods15:55
lcukwhats your new garage project?15:55

Paveljoorin: Actually, my current hypothesis is that the video thumbnailer or some other indexing process tries to "re-index" the file every time a downloaded chunk of it is written.16:03
Pavellcuk: Thanks, I'll try that. Does it give by-the-process granularity?16:03
PavelOh, looks like top is installed.16:06
Paveltop -b should do the trick.16:06
joorinpavel, ok. depending on how its saved, as in which part of the FS API is triggered and if the thumbnailer has registered to woken up when it changes, this can turn cmoplicated.16:07
joorinpavel, the linux kernel offers some low level signalling to avoid polling by hand.16:07
Paveljoorin: If my theory is correct, the problem isn't in the polling, but in that the thumbnailer runs every time a piece of the file is written, which is many, many times per download.16:08
csaavedradoes vcs.maemo.org even work? I can't push16:12
csaavedraok, I was pushing through https16:13
csaavedranow it worked16:13
joorinpavel, well, if the thumbnailer is run often, it should be because its polling too often... ;)16:15
joorinpavel, or for the wrong reasons.16:15
joorinand GUI programming can actually be fun. it has to be that its so easy to get results with Hildon/GTK+.16:16
joorinoh, are there any special reasons that i should try to use hildon widgets as much as possible instead of GTK+ ones directly?16:16
joorinfor buttons and selectors and the such.16:17
fralshildon ones are fingerfriendlier and are pretty!16:18
joorinfrals, ok.16:18
Paveljoorin: Not necessarily --- if it's using some notification API, it could just be getting notified all the time, and reacting.16:18
joorinpavel, perhaps do a testrun where you download to another place and then do an mv to the place where the thumbnailer looks and see if you only get one instance running?16:19

zgoldbergHm, has anybody else noticed that sharing video via the n900 reduces the quality a lot?19:17
*** DocScrutinizer51 has quit IRC19:21
*** Docscrutemp has joined #maemo-devel19:22
*** Docscrutemp is now known as DocScrutinizer5119:22
joorinzgoldberg, how do you share it?19:26
zgoldbergjoorin: sharing -> share via service -> send via pixelpipe19:26
joorinzgoldberg, oh. is that some kind of streaming?19:26
zgoldbergno19:27
joorinpixelpipe sound like there has been done some serious resampling.19:27
*** VDVsx has joined #maemo-devel19:27
joorinill just have to google it. ;)19:27
joorinzgoldberg, looks like a hosting site. do they guarantee that they wont tamper with the data to reduce storage size/bandwidth?19:30
*** onen|openBmap has quit IRC19:31
zgoldbergunless they hae some kind of super computer that i've never heard of its way to fast for them to be touching the data19:32
zgoldbergthe video shows up in my youtube folder almost instantly19:32
zgoldberg(and then youtube takes 5 mins to process it)19:32
zgoldbergit also makes no sense for them to touch the data19:32
joorinzgoldberg, awesome speed suggests downsampling...19:32
zgoldbergim pretty sure its done on the n90019:32
zgoldbergno, no it doesn't19:32

lcukMadsy ?19:59
*** amigadave has joined #maemo-devel20:04
Madsylcuk: I just thought someone would respond faster, that's all20:07
lcukwell whats the bug?  is it serious?20:09
lcukdoes it stop lots of people from using sdk?20:09
Madsylcuk: Depends on your view I guess: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=999420:21
povbotBug 9994: objdump segfaults when specifying a binary BFD20:21
lcukahhh Madsy i thought the entire sdk was broken then!20:27
* lcuk hasnt heard of BFD before20:27
MadsyIt's kind of weird though. How do one manage to break just one of the GNU binutils, and only for one BFD?20:33
MadsyKind of strange :)20:33
lcukMadsy, its not the first armel specific bug20:39
lcuk(infact are you uusing the correct arch in your command line?)20:40
Madsyyes20:40
lcukwell debug it, find the point of failure?20:41
lcuksince you obviously care about this bug - try to give a bit more info and even see about a patch? :)20:42

petert_Hi! The promotion of my package from Extras-devel to Extras-testing takes quite long ( http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-devel_free_armel/evopedia/0.3.1-maemo1/ ). Can someone help me? Should I create a new version and promote that?23:57
