qgilone comment to the hardcore supporters of #maemo:00:26
dannymMolagi: VIDEO:  [DIVX]  320x192  24bpp  20.000 fps  119.3 kbps (14.6 kbyte/s) (for the 770) works great00:26
qgilwe want that those of you that here almost 24/7 providing very useful help and good mood receive a discount code as well00:26
Molagiwhat about n80000:26
shaprTak: Summary is btsco is in progress, A2DP may show up as a side-effect. So I'll stick with my ipod shuffle for the time being. It's too bad :-(00:27
shaprTak: I could always get off my butt and help bluez...00:27

Molagihmm 400x240 and video bitrate 12800:30
shaprSure would be nice though :-)00:30

shaprok, sounds good to me.00:31
*** pdz- has joined #maemo00:31
qgilwe just want to avoid received thousends of requests (as it might well happen if we open the call too much - please understand this little detail)00:31
shaprYup, I understand.00:31
ssvbMolagi: it should be easy to handle, even with 400kbps bitrate (at least on nokia 770)00:31
Molagiyeah, im not sure whats wrong00:31
shaprI also understand that my own long term selfish desires will be best fulfilled if the most active contributors get N800s early on!00:31
shaprBecause my long term selfish desire is to get the best N800 software that a community can build.00:32
ssvbMolagi: do you try to stream it via wifi or play locally?00:32
Molagilocally00:32
qgilanyone at maemo-developers has received my post?00:32
*** k-s has quit IRC00:32
*** arnnnn has joined #maemo00:32
arnnnncan I install evince on nokia n800 yet ?00:33
ssvbMolagi: make sure that it uses xv for video output, also standard video mplayer probably should run as good as mplayer (or probably even better) for mpeg400:33
qgilhum, "service unavailable"? need to check...00:33
Molagissvb well i downloaded that mplayer you pasted00:34
tzzssvb: btw, thanks for all the work on mplayer, it's a great package00:34
arnnnnI tried installing evince on nokia n800 and I got error message 'application not compatible'00:34
ssvbMolagi: I guess standard n800 video player now uses ffmpeg running on ARM core for mpeg4 video00:35
arnnnnwhich one will make nokia n800 battery last longer? charge  it  frequently or  charge it only when it's empty ?00:35
Molagik00:35
Molagitzz you use that ssvb's package?00:36
*** xan has quit IRC00:36

shaprrev: btw, STM is not completely free, have you ever used monads to encapsulate effects?00:36
*** sp3001 has quit IRC00:37
qgiltime to sleep then, I guess00:37
ssvbMolagi: if you run mplayer in terminal, it should display a lot of information about video and also the type of output driver that is used, it is very important that xv is used (it might fallback to some other driver for some reason)00:37
c0ffeeshapr, nothing new00:37
*** e^ipi is now known as guru300:38
Molagissvb hmm what command00:38
Molagiis it in terminal00:38

shaprI'm glad the N800 is using a different bluetooth chip, the TI chip wasn't well know in the OSS community.00:45
c0ffeeoh00:45
c0ffeeit's used in a lot of handhelds00:45
c0ffeebut they all come with working windows driver00:45
c0ffeewhich makes it easier to add linux support00:45
c0ffeeyou can reverse engineer them00:45
c0ffeewith the maemo platform it's more difficult00:46
c0ffeeeither you already have a linux support, or there's nothing00:46
*** ferulo has quit IRC00:46
shaprAnd BlueCore4 seems to have some support in bluez00:47
c0ffeeyes00:47
shaprSo I'm happier about that.00:47
|tbb|any1 able 2 port gpsd for os7?00:47
c0ffeebut it would be great to have preliminary bt headset support on the 77000:48
c0ffeei don't like this 'oh, we know how it works, the bluez guy knows how it works, we'll let you know when it's done, please don't ask' stuff00:48
shaprYeah, I don't like that either.00:48
shaprI feel pretty shut out.00:48
*** _follower_ has joined #maemo00:49
shaprI want access to the code the way it is now, at least I can check for bugs, fix small bugs, and help in other ways.00:49
*** _follower_ has left #maemo00:49
c0ffeewell00:49
c0ffeei can understand that it's not possible to disclose 3rd party stuff easily00:49
shaprMe too, but it still gets on my nerves.00:50
shaprI want to help!00:50
c0ffeeit's probably a lightrope walk between legal and not annoying the opensource comunity00:50
c0ffeehe00:50
shapryeah00:51
c0ffeei want a n800 for 100 euro00:51
shaprme too00:51
shaprBut I have a 770, so...00:51
shaprif someone is doing lots to improve the N800 code, they deserve one more than I do.00:51
Molagicant get this shit working, ill continue tomorrow00:51
shaprI have a great idea. Let's all sign NDAs, and then we can all work on the code, but not tell each other about it.00:52
c0ffeei'm too long in this opensource stuff for illusions of good will and higher ideals :)00:52
c0ffeeif i have a n800 i probably will fix stuff that annoys me00:52
shaprI've been doing open source for many years, but I still have higher ideals.00:52
c0ffeeif not, i'll probably stick to my 770 and fix stuff there00:52
Molagissvb should n800 be able to run 400x240 with 430 video bitrate?00:52
shaprOf course, I'm still poor too... even at age 35.00:53

*** sp3000_ has quit IRC00:56
shaprI think it would look like Aardappel, and you'd drag around branches and speak new code onto the selected spot.00:57

Pioi dont have any other upnp clients02:00
tzzpio: do a google search, there are plenty.  Have you edited /etc/default/gmediaserver already?02:01
shaprThere's the nokia media player that's not canola.02:01
shaprIt's also a UPnP client.02:01
Piooh, interesting02:01
Pioi never did try that02:01
Piothe nokia player02:01
shaprI've gotten it to work with gmediaserver on my lan.02:01
tzzpio: /etc/default/gmediaserver is for Debian btw, your OS may be different02:02
Pioi think i messed with gmediaserver's config a little.. it was a week ago or so i played with that02:02
Pioyeah .. was trying on gentoo before..02:02
tzzshapr: it works, I've used it.  There was a bug in earlier releases that would limit the number of files to 30 or so.02:02
Pioare there certain edits you are known to have to make to make canola work with it?02:02
tzzpio: no, it just works.  Make sure it's running, your options should be --file-types=mp3,m4a,unknown,ogg,wma,wav,pls,m3u --friendly-name=heechee -v4 --output=/var/tmp/gmediaserver.log02:03
tzzpio: and make sure you give it a valid media directory (but it will tell you in the log if you don't)02:03
shaprPio: One caveat, I ran gmediaserver on 120gb of music files and it took a *long* time to read all those tags. I suggest starting with a smaller sample :-)02:03
s-ndh-cushare worked much better for me02:04
s-ndh-cthan gmediaserver02:04
Pioyeah i just put in in a directory with like 15 AVIs to test02:04

tzzJaffa: I got Emacs to build, binary only is 32 MB (nothing pruned, this is everything).  I'll try installing it, since I have very little installed on my N800.  Will that be OK or will a 32 MB package likely cause problems?  I haven't seen a package bigger than 10 MB or so (Canola I think).17:20
|tbb|could it be that the 770 has a more scratch ressistent touchscreen-display as the 800 ??? my 800 is 2 days old and has more scratches as my 770 :-(17:20
tzztbb: yes, the N800 felt pretty sticky at first.  It feels OK now after a few days of use.17:21

X-Fade|tbb|: A free screen protector :)17:24
|tbb|hehe17:24
tzzkoen: so I would assume the symbols are stripped, yes.17:24
|tbb|did u remove it?17:24
X-FadeI don't have a N800 :(17:24
osfameron|tbb|: I removed mine, and it was still pretty sticky for a while17:25
Jaffatzz: I'm going to ensure that debian/rules is modified (by default) to strip binaries and not-install documentation. So the package as-is is fine, given the maemo.org problems, it looks unlikely that anything'll be uploaded to extras any time soon. And the build system still needs some work.17:26
|tbb|there was a small thing on the left corner on the display i just removed that17:26

t9k782i do ride my dog to work :)17:46
t9k782is the n800 too slow?17:47
*** pcfe has quit IRC17:47
tzzI tried to make an analogy, but here's the full explanation.17:47
t9k782ok17:47
tzzThe N800 has a slow processor, little disk space, and little memory.  It is a very specialized device.17:48
*** atla has joined #maemo17:48
t9k782i just want to write small script. educational purpose17:48
tzzA DB server has a good processor (usually multiple cores), LOTS of memory, and LOTS of disk space.17:48
lle2I had a db server with 96MB of memory once17:49
tzzSo either talk to a real DB server, or use sqlite.17:49
lle2it kicked some major butt back then17:49
tzzlle2: sure, but the N800 is not a dedicated server in any case.  Running the UI and apps leaves little room for background tasks.17:50
t9k782i saw that i could format the SD-card as RAM. how fast is that?17:50
lle2tzz: I know, not arguing with that point at all17:50
keesjpiknapsu, what kind of problems do you have?17:50
Disconnectt9k782: swap space, its just as fast (or slow) as normal card access17:50
Jaffat9k782: you can use a swap file on the SD card.17:50
t9k782ok17:50
*** alump has quit IRC17:51
t9k782what is the benchmark on the SD-card? 0.1 ms random access time?17:52
tzzt9k\d+: also, PHP requires a webserver.  That is its own bunch of problems.  Having specced and installed many DB and web servers myself, I would just tell you that running MySQL+PHP on the N800 is a nice party trick but useless in the end.  Like riding your dog to work.  :)17:53
dottedmagtzz: well, I had a server iP233MMX/32M which succesfully served static files and some PHP (shame on me, I did PHP!) and had LA 0.0117:55
glassphp requires a webserver now?17:55
t9k782PHP does'nt require a webserver i can be run from shell.. php script.php17:55
glassyes17:55
Pierrephp has many SAPI17:55
t9k782php can be used instead of perl or python.17:56

tzzit doesn't pop up the keyboard, so without a BT keyboard it's pretty useless.18:00
Pierreah, a propos xpm, have you already seen a xpm package without a X11 dep?18:00
koentzz: .debs have a Depends: field for a reason18:00
tzzand you have to run "emacs" from a command line, it doesn't go into Extras18:00
tzzkoen: it has a dependency.  If you download it directly, it will discover you need libxpm4 too late, and you have to download again.18:01
tzzso either save it, or pre-install libxpm4.18:01
lle2somebody should put instructions on maemo.org how to run php + a webserver, it would be a real timesaver for a lot of people18:02

Jaffakoen: I think it's my fault as for some reason mud (or rather dh_make/dpkg-buildpackage) hasn't picked up the libxpm4 dependency18:10
Pierreideology has no place in programming, imho.18:10

osfameronit's unthinking acceptance of an ideology, and being unpleassant to other people because of their's that is ott18:11

dottedmagokay. But why don't old interface clearly marked as deprecated and only-for-backward-compatibility?18:20
PierreI'm happy with them as many other, why should we deprecate them only for the sake of OOness?18:20
dottedmagNot mentioning that OO is not necessary here, and just a set of functions with sound semantics is needed.18:21
Pierreif one does not like them, he can use spl18:21
Pierreor ArrayAccess18:21
Pierrebut I agree, it can be confusing to have many ways to achieve the same operation18:21
Pierredottedmag: but really, I have little interest to debate about old topics in why php is good/bad/evil/rocks. But I rather prefer to discuss evolutions, fun and new things/features. Or maemo needs as we are in #maemo :)18:23
*** pcfe_ is now known as _pcfe_18:25

c0ffeeown experience :)20:30
c0ffeeat least here20:30
mgedminlong-time immersion in the various communities (lurking in mailing lists, reading web)?20:32
guerbytzz, I think 500 should be near covering anyone who packaged or developped20:32
||cwOSS developers either are their own user base or have a userbase thrust on them because a company thinks it will cost less to extend an OSS app than to write their own from scratch20:34
tkoI agree. OSS developers do whatever they feel like doing and from somewhere users appear demanding stuff20:34
mgedminscratching own itches and all that20:34
tzzOK...  seems like a pretty one-dimensional argument to me, ignoring external factors such as available utilities, user community support and debugging, and OS support on modern hardware.  I don't see many people developing open-source for DOS anymore, for instance.  But let's assume you're right.  Will bribing developers to develop applications really work?  Wouldn't it be better to work with teams like INDT for applications like20:35
tzzCanola?  I would say the money is better spent there.20:35
mgedminhey, there are more open-source apps for linux than for windows, although windows has a larger userbase20:35
tzzguerby: my argument is not that 500 is not enough developers, it's that you're better off being nice to users who bought the 770.20:35
mgedminI think less-expensive tablets are more like a lottery, in hopes that a developer will think "I have a cool programmable device here, why don't I try to port something to it"20:36
guerbytzz, I'm a user, made some minor bug reports, and I don't think Nokia should give something to me. (I bought a N800 anyway :)20:36
tzzmgedmin: Windows is missing open-source support on principle (rightly so).  Even so, stuff like cygwin is very popular for those who have to use it.20:36
mgedminyes20:37
mgedminwindows is not a pleasant environment for most open-source developers20:37
revi know it isn't the same, but when discussing FOSS on windows, don't ignore the long and established shareware, freeware and PD scene that has been around DOS and Windows for many years20:37
mgedminwhich supports my thesis that OSS developers do not follow the user base20:37
tzzrev: I'm not :)20:38
guerbytzz, and I believe Nokia initiative is excellent (except for the timing, they should have get the launch and the coupon at the same time but it's minor)20:38
revOSS developers follow their own needs, pleasures and their own nose20:38
tzzI use Putty daily for instance...20:38
mgedminhey, we were talking about FOSS, not about closed crap that most shareware apps are20:38
revabove all20:38
revmgedmin: i know, but it's a part of the culture that factors in a discussion like this20:38
mgedminI am inclined to agree that shareware developers do follow the user base20:38
mgedminbut the culture is different20:38
revyou see FOSS dev's following the userbase when it comes to a big, established app- KDE or Firefox, for instance20:39
revbut those projects make up a tiny fraction of the number of FOSS projects, and a minority of FOSS developers20:39
tzzmgedmin: again, you're simplifying.  Why develop for Linux and not (fill in the blank open-source OS)?20:39
revfor the most part, FOSS developers follow their own desires, oftentimes at the expense of users who might end up using their app20:39
revbut you also see FOSS developers developing not specifically for Linux anymore20:40
tzzbigger community == better support in every way ==  faster development20:40
mgedmingood argument20:40
revtzz: most Windows users don't code for Windows20:40
mgedminpeople develop for linux because the developers use linux themselves20:40
mgedminthey use linux rather than some other OSS OS because it's the most popular of the OSS OSes20:40
mgedminso indirectly developers do follow the user base20:40
revbut instead they're using SDL and the like- i don't use linux on my primary machine, but i don't have any problem finding FOSS apps (i'm on OS X), and most of the apps i download i see binaries or instructions for building on Linux, *BSD, OS X and Windows20:41
tzzright.  The community around open source is what makes it viable.  Without it, we'd be back in 1988.20:41
reveven without using a specific environment like cygwin, or if cygwin or mingw is used, it is invisible20:41
mgedminbut I do not think 3000 more 770 users will entice a horde of developers to drop, say, BSD, and start writing software for maemo20:41
revi agree mgedmin20:41
revfrankly20:41
tzzrev: you're right.  But when a developer has to write kernel-specific code, he usually does Linux first.20:41
reva 50 euro discount for 3000 people won't get many of those 3000 people to buy a 770/800 when they hadn't before20:42
revtzz: yeah, but how much is kernel-specific?20:42
revtzz: very little, these days20:42
tzzrev: that's not my point.20:42
koenmgedmin: osx has a lot of opensource apps that cost a few euros20:42
koenmgedmin: which is probably the comprise between shareware and full blown FOSS20:43
revtzz: but then what is your point?20:43
revkoen: xchat for windows is like that20:43

revhe's helped some other active squeak developers as well20:48
revmind you, i think what Alan did is different than what Nokia is doing20:48
tzzso coming back to my parallel point.  Take the 150K euro and pay 5 guys for a year to port existing apps to Hildon.  Wouldn't that help us all more?20:48
revbecause he helped a small number of people with an established need for hardware and an established track record for producing code and helping the project20:49
revtzz: indeed, it might very well20:49
revtzz: like i said before, most people who would want or need a 770 or 800 would alredy5 have one ... i don't think nokia buying them an 800 will get them to port or dev anything for maemo any faster20:49

p13does the screen retain the "grainy" feel the 770 had ?22:08
tzzp13: the screen is just as nice as the 770.  It was sticky to the stylus the first 2 days, now it's fine.22:09
*** daf`` has quit IRC22:09
p13people all went raving mad over the quality screen of the 77022:09
p13the resolution is mad but tbh i'm not all that impressed22:09
p13it's not evenly lit and it has a pretty high degree of discoloration22:09
p13and mine has a stuck pixel too22:09
tzzso my Hildon question is, can you add the pop-up keyboard to anything, or is it only for GTK widgets?  I want to add it to the Emacs buffers but haven't figured out how.22:10
p13i particularly dislike the grainy look22:10
*** sbaturzio has joined #maemo22:10
tzz...any pointer to docs would be welcome :)22:10
p13isn't the popup kb tied into the X input layer directly ?22:10
p13i should stfu though because i have no idea22:11
tkotzz, it works automagically for gtkentry and gtktextview only, is easy to use with gtk, for the rest there's some reverse engineered documentation in the wiki22:11
tzzp13: not for Emacs.  I think it uses custom widgets, not standard GTK (being older than GTK by a long shot)22:11
tzztko: thanks, I'll look at that.22:11

tzztko: thanks!22:15
tzzp13: hasn't crashed on me yet, but I don't browse the web much.22:15
tzzp13: the RSS reader is less stable, for sure.22:15

p13well, i live in belgium so chances are very slim i'll ever get to see one irl before buying one22:16
p13and that's a damn shame22:16
tzztko: exactly what I needed.  I'm off to play with Emacs X windows.  Gahh.22:18
tzzp13: the N800 is worth the money, IMHO.  The only thing it really lacks right now is snapshots/movies from the webcam, and I'm sure that's coming.  Good luck with it.22:19
gpdc0ffee: now i'm getting 'hash comparison failed: ... check group password!' - but I have the .pcf and used pcf2vpnc and it gives me a group password -- now lost22:19
blub1have someone a idea how i can install packets on the nokia 770 without the programm manager?22:20
p13blub1, apt-get22:20
p13tzz, i'll wait a little longer till there is a new revision of OS200722:20
blub1thx, but than I need w/lan connection or?22:20
*** snorkelyd has joined #maemo22:21
tzzblub1: you don't need a connection with the app manager, just install from file.  apt-get needs a network connection.22:21
pahartikblub1: "dpkg --install"22:21
gpdc0ffee: the weird thing is that the pcf2vpnc script runs the decrypt url twice and asks for yes twice - but first time says - done - second says ommitted.22:21

Takthere's no separate download for mencoder22:31
|tbb|which text editor works with 0S7?22:31
tkobhima, jabber, or gaim? :)22:31
bhimatko: jabber. It seems that messages go to the last client that actually sent an outgoing message.22:32
*** snorkelyd has joined #maemo22:32
tkobhima, yes, I've heard gaim does that22:32
*** snorkelyd has left #maemo22:32
bhimaIt's what the jabber servers do; iChat and the 770 both behave that way.22:33
tkowhen the sender is using gaim, I've heard22:33
bhimaThe senders in question weren't using GAIM...22:33
bhimaIf this sort of behaviour is remote client dependent, though, that seems terrible to me.22:34
Molagihmm i downloaded mplayer for windows and it doesnt work22:36
Molagiopens the cmd line and in one second it closes22:36
Taktry running from the command line22:37
lardman|homeMolagi: Because it's a command line app, you need to open a command window in the same dir as the executable, then run it22:37
lardman|homeMolagi: If you run it without any inputs it just prints out the help and exits22:38
Molagiok22:38
Molagiwhats the command for running it from cmd22:38

Molagiit couldnt find it when i just typed mplayer -vo xv lost36.avi23:36
Molagi"cant find lost36.avi"23:37
pahartikMolagi: "mplayer -vo xv" is correct23:37
tzztko: it seems that Emacs is using GTK windows, so I don't see why the Hildon behavior is not happening.  Maybe they do special behavior modifications.  I'll have to ask maemo-developers I guess.23:37
Molagiok23:37
Molagiso whats a command for including the path for lost36.avi23:37
* bhima wonders if the local compusa has the N800 in yet...23:37
pahartikMolagi: just specify either relative or absolute path to file with content23:38
Molagiis it mplayer -vo xv /media/mmc2/lost36.avi23:39
pahartikMolagi: could be like that, for absolute path23:39
Molagiooh worked23:40
Molagistill chugs a bit even with the -vo23:40
pahartikMolagi: "mplayer -vo xv lost36.avi" would work if your "pwd" is already "/media/mmc2/" (for example you might have executed "cd /media/mmc2/" before)23:41

ssvbdaniels: mplayer on maemo uses some cache by default, so reading flash theoretically should not be a problem23:56
