tigertsearch for "Single click install"00:00
seebsAhh!00:00
seebsThis thing has really matured quite impressively.00:00
seebsA friend of mine got one, it was the last one at the CompUSA by his house, and they hadn't even put them out on counters yet.  Heh.00:00

tigert:)00:01
tigertso you can even try to make one on your own server00:01
tigertthen give it to inz to put it on the app catalog00:01
memnocthanks, I tested on the internal slot00:01
tigertor just put these as links to the app catalog00:01
tigertthe new app catalog supports these anyway00:01
guerbymemnoc, you're welcome00:02
memnocall the N800 needs now is a slingbox client ;)00:04
tigertok. sleep time.00:04

memnocon the 800, do you still need to put it into r&d mode to gain root?00:24
seebsYes.00:25
seebsWhich is, as I recall, a change from 2006's behavior on the 770.00:25
seebsI seem to recall being able to get root without R&D mode on my 770 last I tried.00:26
memnocon the 770 you could just put dropbear on there right?00:26
seebsYup.  And actually, I think the same thing works with ssh on the n800.  Since I was already in R&D mode, though, I used a root shell to install ssh.00:27
memnocso the same dropbear binaries will work on the 800?00:28
*** maihem has joined #maemo00:28
memnochrm, I'm on a win laptop, wonder if the linux flashwe will work on linux under vmware00:28
seebsI don't know about dropbear.  I haven't got it handy.00:29
guerbymemnoc, I got root without enabling R&D mode on my N800, just install ssh (as described on the works on IT2007 page) and do ssh root@localhost (default password)00:30
memnocthanks00:31
memnocso that's ossh right?00:31
*** jtokash has quit IRC00:32
Jaffakoen: true, you can't expect these things to happen overnight.00:32
koenheh00:32
guerbymemnoc, yes, I used dropbear on N770, but on N800 since ssh is in std repo I didn't bother00:32
memnochrm, I don't see it in the repo00:33
guerbymemnoc, did you follow the instructions (enable red pill mode)00:33
guerby?00:33
memnocoh, I did not, sorry, I added 2 repos in the application manager00:33
memnocmaemo repo and maemo hackers00:34
guerby#00:34
guerbyApplication ssh00:34
guerby    *00:34
guerby      Status: Works.00:34
guerby    *00:34
guerby      How to install: Add same repo as for X Termina, then activate red pill, update list and then choose ssh from the list00:34
guerbymemnoc, worked for me at least :)00:34
memnocok having problems finding the link to what apps work in IT2007 I know I saw it on the site earlier00:35

guerbymemnoc, should be indifferent. Did it work for you?00:46
memnocit did work00:48
memnocall's good00:49
memnochave root00:49
guerbymemnoc, I use ssh-keygen -t rsa to create a key for user to root00:49
guerbys/use/used00:50
memnocah, didn't edit gainroot?00:50
guerbymemnoc, could do too00:50
memnocactually probably locking the user and using ssh keys is probably the most secure00:50
guerbymemnoc, I usually ssh root@n800 from my desktop so I don't do much user to root in real life00:51
guerbyI changed the password00:51
guerbysudo gainroot might be useful for X applications (I'm not a specialist)00:51
guerbyI just enabled it just in case...00:55
memnocusing an ssh key is probably the best idea00:55

*** _follower__ has left #maemo03:15
qosbecause i cant install it. apt says that it cannot open /etc/ld.so.config03:15
qosi checked it ... and the file does not exists03:15
qosgoogled a bit for it and found out that u can create it via ldconfig on regular linux distributions03:16
gpdwhere did you get the .deb?03:16
qosfrom the official responsitory03:17
gpdand are you trying to install a mistral .deb on an N800?03:17
qosi just have a 770 :)03:17
gpdwell -- i have /etc/ld.so.conf -- not config?03:18
qosi dont have it ...03:18
gpdjust make it --03:19
qosdidnt changed anything03:19
gpdempty file should be enough03:19
qosso ... wait a moment03:19
gpdthe only thing I have in my ld.so.conf is /usr/X11R6/lib03:19
nomis"ldconfig" does not create /etc/ld.so.conf03:19

qosso, i have never done this ... and i wont try03:27

gpdany reason why you are not using GPE?03:33
qoswhats about this error? "/bin/sh: /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure: not found03:33
qos"03:33
gpdi haven't used dates - so just curious03:33
gpdare you sure you have the right .deb?03:34
qosi like dates ... and there are all my dates in it :)03:34

Jaffakeesj770: mud can now do dependency tracking for tarball fetches (although it doesn't yet add them in to the debian/control file)11:41
Guardianhttps://maemo.org/bugzilla --> is it where we should report bugs ?11:42
Guardianor is it still non read by nokia ?11:42
JaffaAgainst the device and core software, yes.11:42
JaffaQuite a few bugs there have commentary and fixes from Nokia.11:42
Guardianwell it's again about the input method tutorial which depends on 2 packages11:43
Guardiani downloaded nokia binaries11:43
JaffaIt's certainly the *best* place to report bugs. If they're there, there's no excuse.11:43
Guardianand tried to apt-get install the mentionned packages11:43
Guardianhowever, it complains about pkconfig11:43
Guardianwhich makes me hesitating entering a bug about those packages11:43
Guardianbecause it's prolly related to pkgconfig, and i think someone already mentioned a problem related to pkgconfig here11:44
JaffaWhy the hesitation?11:44
Guardiani'm not into filling in bugs without being sure there's a bug11:44
*** jpetersen has joined #maemo11:44
JaffaGuardian: ;-)11:44
JaffaHow confident are you that you installed Scratchbox correctly?11:44
Guardian*very*11:45
Guardianit just runs fine on all my targets11:45
Guardiani'm running apophis with herring,scirocco (compiling only) and bora11:45
JaffaGuardian: If someone's mentioned it here, but not put it into Bugzilla, there's no harm (and probably lots of benefit) of putting it in Bugzilla. Wouldn't take long to check.11:47
suihkulokkiGuardian: I've seen the pkg-config thing mentioned before, i think it a rootstrap bug.11:47
GuardianJaffa: here is the output of apt-get if you want to have a look http://rafb.net/p/Ta7ltB82.html11:47
Guardiani guess it's a problem with pkgconfig, and of course doing apg-get install -f as suggested by the prompt just removes nearly everything :)11:48
JaffaI'd agree with suihkulokki, sounds like a rootstrap bug so I'd log it in bugzilla11:48
*** sbaturzio has joined #maemo11:53
sbaturzioAloha!11:53
Guardianwell, pkg-config search on bugzilla yields zaroo boogs found :)11:55
Guardianok gonna fill a bug for the sdk then11:56
inzGuardian, there was discussion about this in the m-dev list11:56
inzGuardian, the pkg-config gets provided by the sbox if you use the installer11:56
inzGuardian, I used scirocco to get pkg-config, installers be damned ;)11:57
Guardiani did not use the installer11:57
Guardianbecause i had several apophis targets that were already set up11:57
Guardianinz: indeed http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.maemo.devel/6885/focus=688511:59
Guardianthe thread does not offer a solution though12:00

Jaffakeesj: cool, hopefully it'll be even better then ;-) If you produce any packages you think should be included, feel free to send me them12:08

keesjJaffa,  don't worry I will12:08
Jaffakeesj: cool12:08

* Jaffa dunnos, I thought I could see some benefit in it, but the studies linked to were fairly negative in their conclusions of effectiveness.12:42
*** sbaturzio has joined #maemo12:42
c0ffeei think it could be good for supporting ppl doing the unsexy stuff12:42
c0ffeelike writing docs or fixing legacy stuff12:42
JaffaWho's going to put a bounty up for unsexy stuff, though? :-(12:42
c0ffeewhich doesn't get as much attention as fancy new features12:42
c0ffeeyeah12:43
c0ffeethat would be the second part of my speech :)12:43
c0ffeei'm pretty sure this won't happen12:43
*** pcfe has joined #maemo12:45
keesjhmm , I see it in a different way. I see more like the "end users" wanting something and developers /guru's creating something12:45
JaffaI suppose if a developer has an itch in a particular area, it's rewarding to know that a) others want it; b) they want it badly enough to contribute some token amount to its development.12:46
c0ffeehum hum12:46
c0ffeein a perfect world maybe12:46
keesj(like a home plugin to write applets in python), a gui for syngergy , stuff like that , I don't think it is very boring12:46
*** tb has joined #maemo12:46
c0ffeeanyway, i think the current state, i.e. that nokia is rewarding stuff that they want, is suboptimal as well12:47

Jaffakeesj: it could be interesting, but I think it needs careful designing (e.g. a "panel" of people moderating requests so it doesn't get silly: "I want to run Half Life 2 on my 770: $5,000,000"12:49

dottedmagHi. I'd like to port changes done in osso-rss-feed-reader to the new upstream liferea version. Sadly, osso-rss-feed-reader is built as native package, and hence there is no orig.tar.gz and no diff.gz. I found reader is based on some CVS snapshot of liferea-0.6.0. Could someone of the Nokia developers check the exact date of snapshot (or may be even give me a tarball)?13:20

lardmanThis may be a silly question, but is it possible to combine object files without a linker throwing errors for missing functions?13:38
lardmanWhen one compiles the more complex DSP examples, they come in multiple source files, and each one produces an object file (.obj)13:39
lardmanNow the DSP seems to expect to execute this object code rather than linked code (as the linker seems to want to link statically)13:39
lardmanSo I may just need to work out why the linker is linking statically I suppose (because this includes the avs_kernel.obj code, which makes it fail to run, and is rather large too)13:40

minrathe new mplayer is amazing20:38
mgedmintzz: apparently it is impossible to have Ctrl or Alt in the vkb20:38
mgedminthe docs mention the possibility, but it looks like an early idea that was later abandoned20:39
mgedminas far as I can tell, you can have 3 rows of keys in the alphabetic section, and 4 rows of keys in the numpad section20:39
mgedminI do not think you can squeeze any more keys20:39

mgedmintzz: better look up the vncviewer package for inspiration20:48
mgedminthe way osso-xterm implements Ctrl+X is very suboptimal20:48
tzzmgedmin: got it.  I didn't think of remapping the hardware keys.  That should be pretty easy with a site init.el20:49
tzzmgedmin: they are just F keys, right?20:49
mgedminsome, yes20:49
mgedminbut I meant the toolbar that vncviewer has20:49
mgedminone of the toolbar buttons pops up a menu where you can check/uncheck Ctrl/Alt etc.20:49
tzzmgedmin: I remember their VK constants are defined somewhere in the osso libs, but it's better to use F keys and keep Emacs as close to the source as possible.20:50
tzzI haven't played with vncviewer, so I'll try it to see what you mean.20:50
mgedminthere are two toolbar buttons: one makes the virtual keyboard apper20:51
tzzthe problem with Emacs is, you really just want a modifier for the next key, not a popup "send Meta+ or Ctrl+" toolbar IMO.20:51
mgedminother has a menu with ctrl/alt/shift as toggleable menu items, and submenus for sending F1..F12, arrow keys of all sorts, etc.20:51
mgedminthen maybe add two  buttons to the toolbar -- C- and M-20:52
tzzOK, I'll take a look.  That was very helpful, thanks!20:52
tzzheh, I'll add a Hyper modifier if I'm feeling mischievous.20:53
