IRC log of #maemo for Monday, 2007-02-05

Jaffaqgil: true, but don't forget the pool of people who can hack on the lower levels, or those with UI ideas (which once released are often fixed) or, best of all, the pool of developers who are willing to put up with more flaws than a consumer to get a good product out at the end of it.00:00
cworthWow, and 2006 was a lot worse.00:00
c0ffeemaemo-hackers, repo.m.o, and repo.m.o/extras/ should do the trick00:00
Jaffaqgil: but I don't envy your job - fun as it sounds ;-)00:00
*** pipomolo42 has quit IRC00:00
suihkulokkiJaffa: re closed planning, I think the only way it could be changed would actually have a open source platform (aka maemo) being developed, and new siikrit products would be created on top of maemo releases00:00
cworthWhat's the reason for all these separate repositories? And what can we do to get this much much closer to 1?00:00
suihkulokkicurrently the situation is oppisite (meamo relases are based on product releases)00:00
cworth(And preferably, just a checkbox away on the default install...)00:01
Jaffasuihkulokki: Agreed, that's my conclusion too. But I can see the many problems arguing that from an internal Nokia business perspectice.00:01
* sp3000 slaps the wiki00:01
tkocworth, we already have the extras repository where people can upload packages.. but they don't :-/00:01
Jaffacworth: the process for uploading to the extras repository needs to be improved.00:01
suihkulokkicworth: well, you need to ask maemo-hackers people why they stick at their own repo00:01
qgilJaffa: I'm not underestimating all the HELP Nokia is getting from the community, I'm only saying that the best way to get this help (IMO) is exchanging help:00:01
tkolack of publicity I suppose00:01
cworthtko: Can we just copy all the packages from all these repositories into extras and then remove the listings from the wiki?00:02
Jaffatko: I uploaded my first packages early last week but they've not appeared and I've had to feedback.00:02
* Jaffa needs to poke ferenc tomorrow.00:02
c0ffeepoke him a bit from me, too :)00:02
qgilthe community helps Nokia doing this by helping themselves in their own developments, and Nokia helps the community supporting this and that, and providing great tools for developers (this last bit falls under my responsibility and I know we are not in the best of the scenarios now)00:02
c0ffeebtw00:03
c0ffeeit would have been very interesting, if the developer device mails included a paragraph 'you have been selected because ...'00:03
tkocworth, if someone was willing to spend the time to do it, and agree with the maintainers, I guess00:03
qgilc0ffee: how long would it take for you to write this paragraph once?00:03
Jaffaqgil: sounds good. One of the things which has been bugging me since gregale was announced (but I've not yet fully formed, so forgive me if this is half-baked) is related to what tko said earlier. All these different code names (which end up being different repositories) all for Maemo 2.x is a mistake. I'd suggest keeping all Maemo 3.x releases as "bora"00:04
c0ffeeqgil, don't tell me you memorized all the reasons or did it using post-it notes :) I'd think such information is available in digital form00:04
qgilJaffa: copy this and paste it in an email answering my thread in maemo-developers, please00:04
Jaffac0ffee: yeah, but you'd want to write it in public-facing, polite, corporate-speak.00:05
c0ffeeqgil, it's more or less another formulation for 'we need help-wanted notes from maemo'00:05
Jaffaqgil: will do: I'll sleep on it and perhaps be more cogent in the morning :)00:05
Jaffa get this help (IMO)00:05
Jaffa          is exchanging help:00:05
Jaffa<tko> lack of publicity I suppose00:05
JaffaDoh.00:05
JaffaDamn copy buffer.00:05
JaffaAnyway, bed time now.00:05
c0ffeeg'n8 jaffa00:06
keesjtko, I have not been able to upload because of the gpg stuff, I have almost become a debian package engineer. not every body can find the time to create great software and package and upload it00:06
*** henryykt has joined #maemo00:06
qgilJaffa: be tough, please00:06
henryykthi everyone00:06
MDKtko: what do you mean?00:06
cworthqgil: As for "great tools for developers", even before quality, I think it's really important to see some of the fundamental tools, (flasher and things needed to bring the device up "from scratch" be made open).00:06
tkokeesj, I know00:06
MDKtko: icon sizes?00:06
qgilc0ffee: I'm happy saving as many minutes as possible delivering those 500 devices - anyway there is not always a clear reason00:06
tkoMDK, the warnings in the console00:06
*** gummibaerchen has joined #maemo00:06
tkoMDK, and if you fix the warnings, icons disappear from TN menus.. whoops00:07
c0ffeeqgil, i can imagine :)00:07
qgilcworth: email to the list replying my thread  :)00:07
cworthqgil: In order to create some fundamental community momentum, that community has to be able to see itself as being self-sufficient.00:07
c0ffeereminds me, of something i could note as well00:07
henryyktit seems that on N800 gdk_devices_list() also returns Touchscreen as device. Is this expected behaviour?00:07
cworthqgil: Which thread?00:07
* cworth doesn't read maemo-developers religiously00:07
MDKtko: hmmm, didn't notice that. I tested with the example (hildon-icon-sizes-example) and it worked fine00:07
qgilcworth: yes, I know :)  the problem comes when we ware dealing with a project with hardware and sales involved, and the community is not going to be self-.sufficient there ever (or not in this century, at least)00:08
tkoMDK, sure, but the menu icons and other stuff is borked00:08
MDKhmm00:08
MDKwill check tomorrow00:08
*** Guardian has quit IRC00:08
qgilcworth: http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2007-January/007527.html00:09
MDKcould it be the general icon sizes borkage?00:09
cworthqgil: Well, for "self sufficient", I mean that the community could go on playing with an "obsolete" device, (as far as sales are concerned), indefinitely.00:09
tkoMDK, no, it's just that gtk does not know how to parse FALSE for boolean properties, you need to use 0 .. duh!00:09
*** xan has quit IRC00:10
tkoMDK, I've made a bunch of changes to gtkrc again.. I'll probably commit the obvious ones tomorrow00:10
qgilcworth: yes, this could be a reasonable aim - however the 770 is being still sold - and inside you have many hardware/software components that not even Nokia can open since don't belong to them - I'm not excusing Nokia, just providing some details about the complexity behind00:11
MDKtko: ok. I've got the hildon-calendar patch all done so we can get the legal stuff rolling00:11
*** sp3000 has quit IRC00:12
tkoMDK, I also triggered another menu flickering problem.. but on the bright side, I have menus scrolling :)00:12
qgilalright, it's getting late here, and I'm one of the first ones stepping in our office in the morning00:12
tkoqgil, even before karl?00:13
c0ffeeif you want to be credible as an open-source guy, you must not appear at work before 3pm00:13
tkoheh00:13
qgilplease, make clear what are you deepest desires around the development platform, in the maemo-developers list, the most specific and pragmatical you are the easier will be to us to move things forward00:13
qgiltko: I'm at 7am there00:14
nomisI put a HildonHVolumeBar into a Menuitem, which in turn gets added to a MenuShell. However, Clicks on it just close the menu, how can I pass the clicks through to the embedded widget?00:14
tkoqgil, wow00:14
c0ffeealready flooding your with mails, qgil :)00:14
cworthqgil: Right. One problem is that no rationale exists for each of the closed source parts. Why's the flasher not open for example? (Not that I'm asking you for an answer for that now, but that's a question Nokia could address---and similarly for each other piece.)00:14
c0ffeecworth, it contains and very secret protocol for flashing from TI00:15
c0ffeenobody could just sniff it00:15
cworthIt would definitely be great to see an image that could be built and flashed with entirely open source/tools, (even if it didn't lead to full funcitonality of all components of the device).00:15
c0ffeeor pipe the whole flasher through ida4l00:15
qgilcworth: this is another reasonable request00:15
c0ffeei already sent it :)00:15
c0ffee<- first00:15

nomisIs the code for brightness/volume applet really closed? Or do I miss something obvious?00:58
nomisI'd really like to know if the menu that they pop up really is a menu or something else. And if it is a menu, how the volume bar got integrated.00:59
timelygive me a few00:59
timelyhildon=status-bar-display ?01:00
timelydoesn't seem to be open source :(01:00
timelythere's a real menu from the looks01:01
timelyyou should be bale to use a gtk inspection tool to determine this :)01:01
nomisI really don't get it. That really should be simple code and could serve very well as example for other applets. Oh well.01:01
timelythe code won't have a comment saying "this isn't open source because XXX"01:02
nomis:)01:02
timelyunless it's "this include code from <XXX>"01:02
nomisactually I believe I am at 80% replicating the functionality. It is just that the embedded volumebar/controlbar do not actually work, because the menu eats the mouseclick.01:03
timelyit seems to be a HILDON_CONTROLBAR whatever that is01:03
nomistimely: oh, that widget is publicly available.01:03
nomistimely: I use it already.01:03
timelyoh, i'm not saying it isn't01:03
timelyjust that it's 1am and i'd rather not look it up and indeed assume you can look it up :)01:04
nomistimely: the problem for me right now is: Is it embedded into a GtkMenuItem? Or is the stuff that pops up not a Menu?01:04
*** jaebird has quit IRC01:04
timelyhrm01:06
timelylooks like it's a window01:06
timelywith a menu hint, a menuitem, menu packing01:06
timelyand your contorl01:06
timelyie.no it isn't in a menu01:06
timelyhrm, superbowl started01:07
timelydid i miss any good commercials?01:07
nomistimely: hmm, ok.01:08
nomistimely: thanks. That at least eases my mind, although it means more work  :)01:08
timelynot sure how one goes about asking if this stuff could be open sourced01:08
timelyi think wha tyou should do is find the public contact from the debian package and ask them :)01:08
*** jpetersen has quit IRC01:09
timelythe info is in debian/control01:09

*** jaebird has joined #maemo01:10
timelyif i'm not in the us, do i not get us commercials?01:11
timelythat'd suck01:11
timelythe only good part about the superbowl is the commercials01:11
timelyis anyone streaming the american superbowl feed? :(01:11
Milhous1Cheerleaders are nice :)01:14
*** ajturner has quit IRC01:16
*** obi has joined #maemo01:16
Milhous1I hope they explain the rules, I don't have a flipping clue!01:16
timelyif there's a controversy, they'll explain01:17
timely4 downs to get 10 yards01:18
timelyusually if you aren't close enough or under enough pressure, you punt on the 4th down01:18
timelyif you don't make 10 yards progress from the original first down position w/in 4 downs, it's a turnover on downs, and the other team gets possession at the spot of the last down01:19
Milhous1Thanks. How often do the cheerleaders come out?01:19
*** jaebird has quit IRC01:19
timelyyou can score 6pts for a touchdown (td), 3 for a field goal (fg), 2 for a safety (tackling the offense in their own endzone)01:20
timelyextra points after touchdown are either 1 (normal, by kicking), or 2 (another play to get the ball to the endzone)01:20
*** jaebird has joined #maemo01:20
Milhous1So it's like rugby, I'll go with the Colts - are they any good?01:20
timelytechnical play time is 1 hr, in 4 quarters01:21
timelydon't ask me?01:21
timelyi've been on the wrong side of the globe for the better half of the year01:21
jaebirdcolts are favored by most01:21
jaebirdbears haven't been since the mid 80s01:21
timelybesides, i haven't followed NFL in years01:21
timelyyuck01:21
timelymy announcers are speaking finnish01:21
timelycould someone *please* find me an american stream?01:22
timelyanyway, every quarter the teams switch sides (and orientation)01:22
Milhous1I've got Don 'miami vice' Johnson here (Sky, UK)01:22
timelyfor the 2nd and 4th quarters, the ball actually moves to the symetric location01:23
timelyfor the 1st and 3rd quarters, the ball is kicked by one team to the other (kickoff)01:23
timelythere's a coin toss that determines who choses if they are kicked or kick the ball for the first quarter01:23
*** Disconnect has quit IRC01:23
timelythe other team does the honors for the 3rd quarter01:23
Milhous1I feel like an American watching football and not understanding the off-side rule01:24
timelyafter most scores there's another kickoff01:24
timelyyou mean for hockey? :)01:24
timelythe offside rules in football aren't too complicated01:24
timelyyou're offside if you're across the line of scrimage when the ball is snapped01:24
timelydepending on whether you have a good video feed or a sucky one, you might get a nice digital yellow stripe showing that line01:25
Milhous1Nice looking stadium - Indianopolis01:26
timelyanyway, time generally runs until the 2 minute warning01:26
timely(which iirc is per half)01:26
timelyeach team gets 3 timeouts per half01:27
*** Disconnect has joined #maemo01:27
Milhous1I'll try and stick with this Superbowl,  have fallen asleep during the previous finals I've watched01:27
timelytime stops for injuries, first downs, penalties (?), and sometimes running out of bounds or incomplete passes01:27
Milhous1Someone just scored from kick off01:28
timelyyep01:28
Milhous1Hester?01:28
timelynice run01:28
* timely shrugs, the names don't mean anything to me :)01:28
Milhous1Was rather01:28
*** koen has quit IRC01:28
timelyanyway, that's the basics01:29
timelythere are penalties for pass interference, holding, roughing the quarter back, too many/few men on the field01:29
|tbb|92 yards touch down01:30
timelyoffsides, failing to snap the ball before the 30s clock runs out01:30
timelys/yards/yard/01:30
timelydon't ask why :)01:30
timely(it's a 92 yard touch down [run])01:30
Milhous1Bugger, Hester plays for the Bears - not good! Go Colts! :)01:30
timelyoh, and it looks like the coverage includes a digital frist down marker01:31
Milhous1Blue line?01:32
timelyoh, false starts01:32
timelyfalse starts are basically after an offensive player is set (hands in position) and moves01:32
timelyblue line is line of scrimage01:32
timelyyellow is first down marker01:33
timely(which is how far you have to get to get your next first down)01:33
*** Pio has quit IRC01:33
Milhous1Right, thanks01:33
timelypenalties range from 5, 10, 15 yards in general01:33
timelywith changes when you're w/in 2yrds of the endzone01:33
timelyiow you can't score based on a penalty01:33
timelyso they switch to half the distance if the normal thing would be too much01:34
timely(half the distance [to the goal line])01:34
*** dis has joined #maemo01:34
timelyinterception01:34
timelyok, turnovers can happen in a number of fun wyas:01:34
timely1. interception01:34
timely2. fumble01:34
timely3. loss of down01:35
timely4. kickoffs01:35
Milhous1Think I need to watch this more often to get the hang of the rules01:35
Milhous1Wtf??? Commercial break01:35
timelyfor a normal kickoff there's a guy who01:35
timelyoh, cheer leaders would be visible during some of those breaks, but you might not see them because of coverage :)01:35
Milhous1Nooooooooo.....01:36
timelyanyway, for a normal kickoff, there are two people who are likely to receive the ball01:36
timelyand they have a choice of either indicating fair catch, or planning to run with it01:36
timelyif they indicate fair catch, then you can't run into them, and they can't run01:36
timelyif they don't, then the opposite :)01:36
Milhous1Would  be cool if a Nokia N800 commercial came on!01:37
timelybut if the ball hits one of the receiving team's players, and it isn't fair catch (?), then the other team can grab it01:37
timelywhat's the going rate for a commercial this year?01:37
timely2-3million for 30s?01:37
timelynokia doesn't have the budget01:37
timelyand i won't see it anyway :(01:37
Milhous1Catch and run away with it?01:37
timelyrun or down it, yeah01:37
timely(downing is a technical term)01:38
Milhous1Yeah 2m would be better spent on developing better software :)01:38

lle2it seems to be built against a newer glibc than what sb provides03:32
s-ndh-ciam running ubuntu edgy03:33
s-ndh-ci just copied those from /usr/lib of my host system03:33
*** liberie has joined #maemo03:33
lle2you could try getting those libs from debian/sarge, I think.03:34
s-ndh-ci can see in /scratchbox/host-shared/ the libc.so.6 is a link to libc-2.3.203:34
s-ndh-clle2: ok will try that03:34
s-ndh-canyways time to sleep03:35
lle2or rebuilding them inside sb, using the host target03:35
s-ndh-cyou mean download libglib and compile that in the host target?03:36
s-ndh-cand then copy the resulting bins to host-shared/lib?03:36

lle2or to /host_usr/lib inside sb03:37

s-ndh-cthx for the hint, maybe that works out03:37
lle2 /host_usr is the "official" end-user installed tools dir03:38

JoshTriplettTak: OK.  That makes sense.06:18
JoshTriplettAlso, if I want to manage a list of servers to connect to, what UI makes the most sense for that?  A single "manage servers" dialog with buttons for "new", "delete", and "connect"?  Or a menu listing all the servers and a "new" item at the bottom?  In the latter case, how should deletion work?  How can I make a menu with an X icon at the right edge like the Home menu?06:22
Takmaybe similar to xchat's server list?06:25
JoshTriplettHaven't tried xchat yet. :)06:26
Takah - it has a listbox with the servers, and buttons for add, edit, remove, connect06:27
JoshTriplettTak: Similar to the Application Catalog dialog in the Application Manager, but with Edit in place of Details, and a Connect button?06:28
Takyeah06:29
JoshTriplettTak: Should I pop it up and auto-open the New dialog the first time you open the application?06:29
Takif a server's required, then probably06:29
JoshTriplettYeah.06:29
JoshTriplettTak: Writing an application to use the N800 as a MythTV remote, using the MythFrontend telnet interface.06:30
JoshTriplettTak: Naturally, you need a frontend. :)06:30
JoshTriplettTak: Hmmm.  Since the application allows only one frontend at a time, perhaps I should use a combobox.  Same buttons at the bottom, but it might make the dialog a bit less overwhelming for the common case of having only one frontend.06:33
JoshTriplettThis seems like such a common pattern, perhaps Hildon should supply a standard dialog for managing a list of items; you supply it with a means of popping up a dialog for an individual item, and a function to summarize an item, and it gives you the add/edit/delete, and optionally a "use this one" button like "connect".06:37

JoshTriplettTak: Nice.07:32
JoshTriplettTak: One thought, though:07:32
JoshTriplettTak: You can already get to "save" and "load" via the hardware keys.07:32
JoshTriplettTak: And if you moved the video output to the far left, you'd have room on the right for two columns of buttons.07:33
JoshTriplettTak: That would allow the traditional button layout of the NES controller, with B to the left of A.07:33
JoshTriplettTak: And Select to the left of Start.07:34
JoshTriplettTak: You could then put "screenshot" and "quit" on the bottom row, leaving a blank row so people don't hit them accidentally while playing.07:34
JoshTriplettTak: Or alternatively, you might consider putting B and A on the bottom, select and start above that, and quit in the traditional upper-right.07:36
JoshTriplettTak: Just my opinion, as someone who used the original NES controller, and had a hard time with B above A rather than to the left.07:36
JoshTriplettTak: For instance, with the original controller, you could hold B with part of your thumb, and press and release A with the rest of your thumb; hence, Mario used B to run and A to jump, so you could run constantly and jump when needed.07:39
JoshTriplettTak: I can't seem to manage that with the fceu layout, though admittedly I didn't try it for very long.07:39
*** behdad has quit IRC07:40
JoshTriplettTak: What do you think?07:42
Takhmm07:44
*** imawinar has joined #maemo07:44
TakI still do that, just with my thumb vertical07:44
Taklike you had to with Y+B on snes07:45
Takit also felt awkward to me holding the 770 so that my right thumb was horizontal07:45
Takadditionally, I'm planning to change the hw keys to volume change07:46
c0ffeemoin07:46
imawinarmooin07:47
Takthoin?07:47
JoshTriplettTak: Hmmm, I see your point.  Y+B on the SNES actually felt more comfortable than B+A on the NES, because of the downward angle.  But vertical feels less comfortable to me than horizontal, which feels less comfortable than downward angle.07:47
JoshTriplettTak: And angles take up lots of space...07:47
JoshTriplettTak: And configurability here seems like massive overkill. :)07:48
Takindeed07:48
Takit seems like inadvertently hitting sel or start would be more likely if they were horizontal07:50
JoshTriplettTak: And I wouldn't hold the original NES controller up as a model of ergonomic design. :)07:50
Takyou mean people's hands aren't completely square and horizontal?! ;-)07:51
JoshTriplettTak: Out of curiosity, does the directional control allow you to move diagonally?07:54
JoshTriplettTak: Does it register two directions at once?07:54
Takyes, you can move diagonally07:55
c0ffeethe hw keys only send one keypress at a time afaik07:55
Takalthough it only registers one keypress07:55
Takyou can even throw your boomerang diagonally in zelda07:55
JoshTriplettTak: So you get "right pressed" then "down pressed" and you treat that as "down-right", then you get "right released" and you start sending the game "down" instead?07:56
TakI didn't have to hack that part of the code at all, actually07:57
Takit just worked as-is07:57
JoshTriplettTak: Makes sense; I guess a keyboard does work the same way. :)07:57
Takhmm - I don't suppose there's any handy-dandy implementation-independent ossolike way to adjust the volume?08:00
JoshTriplettTak: System volume?  Dunno.08:00
JoshTriplettTak: But thanks for actually using system volume, rather than an independent volume control like the media player does. :)08:01
Takdon't thank me yet ;-)08:01
imawinarit's not an issue with 770, but frequently indep volume is good08:03

koentrue15:38
Veggenkoen: But seriously - every place they have enacted smoking laws, bars and restaurants have whined a lot beforehand. Then, smoking laws is enacted, and half a year later, the complaining stops short, because there's actually more people going out - and generally drinking/eating more instead of only smoking.15:39

mgedminofficially 2 gb16:09
mgedminsome 4 gb cards work16:10
mgedminthere's an updated kernel that supports sdhc cards16:10
hanno__imawinar: So far, up to 2 GB. SDHC is reported to be working with an unofficial patch, which would enable 16 GB and more.16:10
hanno__imawinar: I guess that the CPU is quite fast enough for certain codecs, e.g. it should be able to decode DVD MPEG 2 video. No?16:11
jmspeexhanno__: actually, I wouldn't be surprised if the DSP part of the OMAP was able to decode 800x480 in real time (with a very optimised decoder).16:11
hanno__jmspeex: I wouldn't be surprised, either, but does anybody know before I start learning DSP development? ;-)16:12
*** sxpert-work has joined #maemo16:12
hanno__Would be pretty stupid to try and then finding out that it's utterly useless to learn that.16:13
imawinargoing to the screen that's 22 MB per second at 30 fps16:13
hanno__imawinar: yes, that's why i am asking if the hardware is able to handle that kind of data transfer, at all.16:14
imawinarif you can code at that level, then write something to test the raw throughput16:16
jmspeexhanno__: consider that the main bottleneck would probably be the memory bandwidth, not the computing power.16:17
jmspeexSo if it fits in the memory bandwidth, it can probably run in real time.16:18
hanno__well, it's easy to dream this up. i'll dig into some developer documents to find out if there's any chance to learn that in reasonable time.16:20

keesjthe problem we had is that non of the existing midlet where ready to run on such a large screen22:49
keesjmidlets22:50
keesjI think the h9 is closer to the 770 :p22:51
tkowas it the 800x480 screen that made you think so?22:51
tkoor the UI?22:51
tkoor ... :)22:51
roope:D that's great!22:52
roopeIt even has the triangles >>.22:52
tkodon't remind me22:52
roopeThen again, it's totally different. It has four plugins, we have three. Plus it has the time at the end of them.22:52
jobiso it must be a pda22:53
tkoand the arrow keys and the rss applet are on the right side, we have them on the left.. clearly a different thing22:53
keesjtko, for me it it the application launcher on the left , that is really something I don't really like on the maemo, and it it there , again22:53

keesjtigert, my problems started after wanting to use maemo mapper , I have put the sd card in the slot ,23:01

garrettit works though23:18
|tbb|_something strange, if i type echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/vdso it should create a file with 0 in it right23:18
tkoMDK, what kind of build-dependencies did the packages have, actually? I think you might be able to build and use them on normal debian system23:18
MDKeveraldo: cool. I'll be here, so just poke me when you have some questions23:18
|tbb|_when i do that, i became no such file or directory ....23:19
MDKtko: yes, the whole system is built in such a way, that it doesn't depend on debian itself23:19
MDKtko: I mean, there is proper pkgconfig shit for everything etc.23:19
MDKthough, there was something being a limitation23:20
MDKI don't remember what however23:20
kaatis|tbb|_, what kernel/distro are you running23:20
tkoI meant that you should be able to build even the whole theme package on a normal debian distro, without sbox23:20
tkoif you felt inclined to do so23:20
MDKyeah I know23:21
|tbb|_debian 2.6.1823:21
garrettbut you'd want to test it somehow -- and would need sbox for that, right?23:21

garrettit more or less mostly worked on my N800 when I was playing around with it23:24
garrettI'll have to do the same thing, with Tango icons23:24
kaatis|tbb|_, do you have built vdso in your kernel23:24
tkojobi, I always forget, we need to make the personalization applet update icon theme as well23:24
garrettyeah that would be nice23:25
MDKgood point23:25
garrettright now, one has to make it the "hicolor" theme, and reboot the device23:25
MDKwe don't really support parallel icon themes installed at the moment23:25
|tbb|kaatis: well i dont know what it is so i dont think so23:25
tkowell, you can have them *installed* nicely.. :)23:25
jobitko: ok23:25
garrettthe hicolor method currently works, but only supports 1 theme and is a bit painful to change (;23:26
*** |tbb|_ has quit IRC23:26
jobiMDK: you can specify in the gtkrc which default icon theme to use, meaning we could have others23:26
tkojobi, and get rid of the horrible gtkrc mangling :)23:26
tkojobi, have you tried appending 'gtk-icon-theme-name = "foo"' in the current-gtk-theme ? :)23:26
garrettthe wasted blank space around the apps, especially on the right -- can that be fixed in the themes, or is that harder to address?23:27
jobitko, MDK: have you figured out the application theming?23:27
garrettI mean, I'd rather have the scrollbars a little bit beefier instead of that space23:27
MDKjobi: working on it right now23:27
tkojobi, I think we have the logic figured out, MDK was about to hack something23:27
MDKjobi: you'll be the first affected in the line23:27
garrettand I know the scrollbars being larger can be done in GTK+ themes23:27
MDK(maemo-af-desktop rc split-up)23:27
tkojobi, we did come up with a related case, which is: how would you do plugin specific theming :)23:28
jobitko: I did something like that when running hildon stuff on desktop, I had installed the hildon icon theme in parallel to the hicolor and specified hildon as default in gtkrc; it worked fine23:28
tkojobi, you can do it in the /usr/share/.../gtkrc, but it's not the right place to do it IMO23:29
garretthow can one force a refresh of the themes w/o having to reboot?23:29
jobitko: agreed23:29
zuhgarrett: yeah, setting slider-width and stepper-size should do it IIRC23:29
jobigarrett: change to another theme then back23:29
tkogarrett, the right border of the application area is controlled in gtkrc, forgot the actual setting but it's there23:29
jobitko: only for HildonWindow23:30
tko(or all borders are controlled in gtkrc)23:30
tkodeprecated widgets don't count :)23:30
jobiAFAIK23:30
MDKgarrett: however, the current theming system is done so, that you can't modify gtkrc from themes23:30
garrettjobi: that'll work for the icons and stuff too?23:30
MDKgarrett: you can justr draw-in the theme in the existing layout23:31
garrettMDK: with the caching or such?23:31
garretttko: oh, so one can turn that off?23:31
MDKgarrett: well, that was made to simplify things23:31
garrettreally? how so?23:31
MDKthe gtkrc's are a huge beast23:31
|tbb|so kaatis what i have to do know?23:31
MDKprolly only 1% might be interesting to you23:31
garrettheh23:31
garrettI looked at a gtkrc; it is huge23:31
tkoMDK, you'd probably benefit from writing the rationale somewhere :)23:32
MDKwe don't have reliable ways to split the stuff23:32
jobiyou can remove the cache files and it uses the non-cached gtkrc23:32
MDKso for now we have themes that are based on layouts23:32
MDKlayouts = gtkrc + 'guides' for images23:32
garretthow do you regenerate the cached version?23:32
MDKit's generated on theme installation23:32
garretttheme installation == deb install?23:32
MDKyeas23:33
MDK*yes23:33
MDKyou can regenerate ALL caches of ALL themes by running hildon-theme-recache-all23:33
MDKtko: this is what you should try running on gtk install btw23:34
nomisMDK: you're working with the hildon-widgets, right?23:34
MDKsilently ignoring error of it not neing present23:34
MDKnomis: yes23:34
nomisMDK: how would I create a menu-like thingie with widgets embedded like the volume/brightness applets?23:34
tkoMDK, can you file a bug so that I remember still tomorrow?23:35
MDKtko: sure23:35
nomisMDK: I tried creating a menu, embedding these widgets into MenuEntries. However, the Menu apparently ate the clicks.23:35
garrettalso, it's annoying that there's this empty space around menus too23:35
tkonomis, they're dialogs with specific settings and widget names and whatnot to get the menu-like looks23:35
garrettI'd rather have the menu items being a touch larger and NOT have the empty space and border23:35
tkowe don't have any howto for that, afaik23:36
tkowe should, though23:36
nomistko: yeah, I'd appreciate. I'd be glad about sourcecode  :)23:36
garrettanyway, probably a lot of this can be tweaked in the thing that makes the gtkrc23:36
garrettright? (:23:36
tkogarrett, yep.. it's all there somewhere23:36

MDKand don't ask when23:51
tkobasically it is possible to take your n800, install sardine unstable + experimental and still have it not blow up23:51

tigertsome predefined tools and we'd have a cool skething tool23:57
everaldoMDK, no why?23:57
tigerttko: it is a LOT easier to draw nice curves with it23:57
tigertthan with the regular pen tool23:57
MDKeveraldo: it's externally installable but it needs to 'provide' apt mono package23:57
everaldoMDK, well.. what you mean as devkit?23:57
MDKeveraldo: perl does something similarly23:58
everaldoMDK, humm... CPAN?23:58
*** hap has quit IRC23:58
MDKno no23:58
MDKI mean -- you have mono vm running in the outside (devkit)23:58
MDKas you don't want to run it through emulation on the arm target23:59
*** hap has joined #maemo23:59
everaldoMDK, I have no solution23:59
MDKbut the devkit needs to hack the apt database to make it look like mono is installed23:59
*** sp3000 has quit IRC23:59
MDKso that some other mono packages don't start pulling mono23:59
MDKperl devkit work similarly23:59
MDKperl is running on the outside of sbox (for perf reasons?)23:59
