kkitodid someone try to run qt4 on n800?00:06
kkitoSulis, i dont know, is better if you compile and configure your own kernel http://maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/howto_kernel_guide_bora.html00:09

*** pdz- has joined #maemo00:12

*** yerga has quit IRC00:14
kkitoSulis, if you are going to build your own kernel, perhaps you may want to patch the kernel with the sdhc patch, for newer 8GB Sd cards http://intr.overt.org/blog/?p=4400:21
*** herzi has quit IRC00:23
Sulisyes, that has been a part of my plans for the near future00:23
kkitoi dont know if there are a patch for usb host support too00:24

lirelentalright I'm trying to cross-compile a text only application on a ubuntu laptop for a n77007:47
lirelentso I followed http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/Maemo_tutorial.html#Installation07:47
lirelentand 1st of all it tells me to use sb-menu instead of sbox-config07:48
lirelentwhich isn't a huge issue07:48
lirelentbut under the CPU-transparancy options the list is empty07:48
lirelentand I used the tar.gz packages07:48
lirelentsince I wasn't getting run_me_first.sh with the .deb packages07:49
lirelentany thoughts?07:49
lirelentsorry if I'm being terse07:49
tigert_install qemu?07:49
lirelentbut it's been a loooong night07:49

tigertbut the debian packages of sbox work fine on ubuntu07:50

BrianRiceactually, if i can be made to feel dumb for a minute, what is the solution to automatically connect to wifi networks that i trust?07:52
kulvelirelent: http://scratchbox.org/download/files/sbox-releases/apophis/tarball/scratchbox-devkit-cputransp-1.0.1-i386.tar.gz07:52
kulvelirelent: and probably: http://scratchbox.org/download/files/sbox-releases/apophis/tarball/scratchbox-devkit-perl-1.0.4-i386.tar.gz07:52
BrianRicei keep googling and not finding anything, which is baffling to me07:52
Takafaik there isn't one07:52
Takat least not for 77007:53
BrianRiceTak: why not when the primary purpose of the device is to connect to the net?07:53
* Tak shrugs07:53
lirelentkulve do I just extract that to / like the other packages?07:53
soulblazethe n800 will cnnect to a trusted network..of course07:53
Takthey appear to have rectified in n80007:53
soulblazeit'll also connect to any open network in site07:53
tigertthere should be a setting in connection manager07:53
kulvelirelent: yep07:53
BrianRiceok, so netcat runs on it just fine but it can't auto-connect... seems like some shell scripts could fix this or something listening for the right dbus messages07:54
soulblazeI haven't used my n800 for anything besides an ebook reader in like a month..07:54
BrianRicehm, well alright. i'll keep looking07:54
lirelentooooh sweet thank SOOO much kulve07:55
kulvelirelent: np :)07:56
lirelentoh so under dev kits what should i choose07:56
lirelentcputransparancy or debian07:56
lirelentor both07:56
kulveboth07:57
kulvebut not the debian sarge thing07:57
lirelentright07:57
kulveall but the sarge thing07:58
lirelentand qemu-arm07:58
lirelentor qemu-armeb07:58
soulblazespeaking of arm coding..is t here any books that are out there that would be helpful to learn toc ode for the n800?07:58
kulvelirelent: latest qemu-arm07:58
lirelentuber ty kulve07:59
kulvesoulblaze: it's basic "linux coding"07:59
kulvejust few internet tablet related addons/tweaks07:59

*** bergie has quit IRC08:29
disq:)08:33
Takin all seriousness , the hildon spinner control could be a lot more thumb-friendly08:37
Takalternatively, I could just use a different control , but a spinner seems like the best fit for a range of integers08:41
tigerthaha08:44
tigertsorry, was gmailing :)08:44
tigerta lot could be more thumb-friendly08:44
BrianRicespeaking of which, at what level is the finger-ness of a click exposed?08:45
tigertbut that would mean a lot bigger widgets. how would we do that?08:45
tigertit would break many app layouts, and those small dialogs would need to die08:46
disqyeah we would need specialized wizard type dialogs. like mediastreamer has but wider, 4-6 pages or so :)08:48
Takwell, instead of [5]^v like it is now, it could be \/[5]/\08:48
tigertbut i must admit, after using the thumb keyboard, i dont want topickup the stylus much08:48
Taknot much size difference, but a lot more thumbable08:48
Takditto08:49
tigertyea, or dialogs and views could slide like on the ipod. but that would mean redoing most apps08:49
disqi hate how the normal vkb resizes hildonwindow when it pops up08:49
Takplus a lot of dialogs are already broken and need to be completely reworked (xchat)08:50
tigertor perhaps we should just experiment with this using  few apps08:50
disqand it keeps popping under certain conditions (opera keeps focusing to that damn textarea when you just need to scroll, etc)08:50
tigertdisq, it kinda has to, so your text entry field is not hiden under the keyboard08:50
disqis there a i dont want your stinkin vkb toggle somewhere btw? :)08:51
disqone could hit the rocker and enable thumbkb if needed08:51
disqor just press the finger etc08:51
tigerti would love to see maemo-mapper in canola-like thumbable ui08:51
tigertwith fullscreen thumb dialog for driving directions etc08:51
*** _follower_ has quit IRC08:52
disqthe translucent vkb idea is good, hope somebody develops it (as a hildon-whatever.so replacement)08:53
disqthat way it also wouldn't resize08:53
disqhow was fosdem btw :)08:53
tigerti dont think its actuallly that good in use08:54
tigertplus real transparency eats cpu we dont have08:54
disqthe 2420 looks pretty idle to me :P08:55
jacquesheh08:55
disqof course it's not an option in the 77008:55
jacqueswhat about the 2d/3d graphics accelerator?08:55
disqjacques: that falls under the category of licensing and money (and possibly lawyers?)08:56
tigertalso even the iphone doesnt have it transparent08:56
jacques:-(08:56
disqiphone my ass, it's just a dumb phone :)08:56
tigerti think the problem is lack of feedback.08:56
soulblazea dumb phone with 3 xscale processors08:57
disqfeedback as in button-feedback, or licensing-feedback?08:57
tigertits already pretty tricky to type, what if it was evenharder to see the keys?08:57
disqmmm. if only we had 32bpp. though the hw designers first have to get a good screen, the digitizer's still screwed up with the n80008:58
disqof course the 32bpp/alphachannel effect can be done with wasting more cpu for convenience, but might need more integration/hacking with the x server since gtk+ possibly wouldn't support it that way08:59

disqthe popped up vkb just takes up too much screen estate09:02
tigertyea. but it has to. it cant really be smaller either09:03
acydlordi like the vkb09:03
tigertits already inconvenient to type09:03
acydlordnokia should have made a n800 bundle with a btkb09:04
disqspace/prediction bar can be smaller, with real tiny fonts. probably numpad too09:04

tigertthe thumb board is great, but of course it overtakes everything09:04
disqbtkb is too much clutter09:04
*** adoyle has quit IRC09:04
acydlordi loved my btkb for when i had a desktop or something to set it on09:04
tigertbluetotooth keyboard works like shit when walking or standing09:04
disqalso the huge margins on everything doesn't help, and i still didn't check out hildon theme tools09:05
tigertits a mobile device. i have a computer when i am sitting on a desk09:05
tigertthe vkb doesnt have much margins that would affect this issue09:06
tigertthe spacing of buttons is in the theme bitmaps09:06
disqyeah its the theme. in fullscreen mode it's much better etc09:06
disqi mean the app margins, not the theming of the vkb :)09:07
tigertyeah09:07
tigertfix it :)09:08
tigertok, back with laptop, now I can type with a real kbd again09:08
tigertbut its scary, I cannot type any faster on this09:08
disq:) identify yourself (to nickserv, i mean)09:08
disqif it's not your laptop then you're bound to suck at typing. it's the laptop way(tm)09:09

tigertthis is an ibm usb keyboard09:09

BrianRicehm. where are the mappings from device buttons to keycodes documented, if anywhere except the header files?09:22
BrianRice(i discovered them via xev, but it'd be nice to know where that kind of info is provided)09:23

BrianRiceis it really?09:24
disqalso they are in the app development tutorial iirc09:25

PinguinoI bought my 770 while visiting a friend in London11:00
PinguinoI live in Israel and what to use the discount I got for the 80011:00
Veggenacydlord: hmm. It looks like that when I enable second sip account, it logs into gizmo servers and then the gizmo servers log into the asterisk...is that true?11:01
Pinguinois it possible?11:01
acydlordyep Veggen11:01
keesjacydlord: So i need to look if I can use asterix to hoock up to my phone provider?11:01
acydlordPinguino, no idea unless you set up a forwarding address11:01
Veggenacydlord: hmmf. probably I need to get sip through my firewall, then ;)11:02
acydlordkeesj probably, i know you can use gizmo with skype too11:02
PinguinoI tried using an international credit card belonging to my local bank and it was rejected11:02
acydlordhave you tried calling nokia customer support to see if they will let you purchace it over the phone?11:03
acydlordi had to purchase my 770 that way because my business credit card doesnt have 16 digits11:03

VeggenThere might be a good reason, if so, then educate me ;)13:02
Veggen(from a user perspective, it's better in most ways to have a central "extras" repository - also because it forces people to cooperate and not create dependency-conflicts, etc)13:03
keesjoe might be the answer. i have a hard time understanding what oe is and how it works. pkgsrc might also be an answer13:04

lardmanWhat are the logistics required to use OE to build n770|800 packages? Could one do a half-way house without needing to build eveything (obviously not the toolchain, but libc, etc.)?13:37
koenlardman: it should be possible to use the scratchbox toolchain and ASSUME_PROVIDE gcc, glibc, etc13:38
koenkeep in mind that maemo doesn't have a real EABI glibc13:38
lardmankoen: Really?13:38

acydlordhow possible would it be to use the camera's orientation sensor to automatically switch the orientation in fbreader?15:30
JaffaIsn't the camera's "sensor" a mechanical switch on the rotation of the barrel?15:31
shackanyes15:31
JaffaSo the answer to acydlord's question would be a "no"15:32
acydlordbut it's not :p15:32
acydlordopen your camera, and rotate the 770 upside down so you can still see the screen15:32

timelessfeel free to complain to nokia about the n if you like, but they'll ignore you :)15:34

*** bergie has quit IRC15:35
Jaffaacydlord: 1) open the camera: see yourself; 2) turn the N800 through 180 degrees, imagining an axis from you, through the screen. It will now be upside down and still facing you; 3) you'll still appear the right way up => image not flipped.15:35

kkitoyou can detect the camera movement, when there are enough movement you can do the screen rotation.... 1- open the webcam, 2-move the webcam (movement detected), 3- the screen is rotated 4- close the webcam15:39

Jaffashackan: keeping the thin plastic layer on it which came with it, or the actual screen itself?15:41
shackanJaffa, I left the plastic on15:41
acydlordbah, my text editor can't detect the charset for the files in /usr/share/zoneinfo15:41

acydlordyeah, first thing i did when i got home with the n800 was added all the repos they had listed in the wiki16:54
hrwmgedmin: last release had 12000 packages available - 3-4 thousands of source packages was used to build repository16:55

* timeless wonders how friendly the flasher is to random platforms17:00
timelesshas anyone here looked at how the osx flasher works? :)17:00
JaffaPart of the problem with the extras repository stems from the version/codename mess that Maemo 2.x/3.0 had. ie. "mistral/scirocco/gregale" all effectively being compatible, and often compatible with bora17:00
*** inode0 has joined #maemo17:01

lardmanJaffa: At the moment they are compatible, but that needn't be the case forever17:01
lardmanDoes anyone know whether a .install file can be used to just add a repo? Do they act temporarily by adding the repo to install some package, or is the repo then saved for later use too?17:03
Jaffalardman: no, and when they're not compatible, change the version number. Debian don't change "sarge" to "bob" when they change a version.17:03
Jaffalardman: they can just add a repo, I believe. And the repos remain.17:03

* Jaffa wonders if we'd be better off just getting rid of all of the mistral/scirocco/gregale/bora distinction, and just use "Depends: maemo (>= 3.0)" in the package.17:04
Jaffalardman: agreed17:04
*** bipolar has joined #maemo17:07
lardmanThe version thing would be solved by depending on a Maemo package, or on any other package that is updated between the versions. But this assumes a single repo that holds all of the debs for a given release17:07

acydlordnow i just need to remember how to use vi17:15
lardmanJaffa: That's where MUD should handle deps, and auto build for different distros (like OE/bitbake)17:16
lardmanI think that's the point hrw was trying to get across: when a new openzaurus release is produced, it comes with a whole feed of packages that have been compiled to be compatible with it17:17

deveshdoes anyone knows how to enable hildon theme for a gtk application launched as sudo ?18:23
mgedmincan you not launch the application with sudo?18:26
mgedminon recent ubuntu systems synaptic runs as user, then invokes gksu for the actual package installation18:27
deveshmgedmin : yes for desktop with a proper concept of multiuser not like n77018:27
k-sdevesh: on maemo, try to run with run-standalone18:27
mgedminhow does the application manager work?  it also needs root, and it is themed18:27
deveshk-s: isnt that more for scratchbox18:27
mgedminare the sources of the app manager available?18:28
k-sdevesh: no, it sets environment18:28
mgedminI think so, for some reason18:28
k-smgedmin: yes, look at the repository.maemo.org18:28
nealdevesh : Why don't you use a sub-process which runs as root and communicate with that?18:28
deveshmgedmin : application manager is better architected, it has a worker process running as root , and the UI i think talks over pipe18:28
nealdevesh : Then you also control the complexity of the privileged code18:28
deveshneal : yes, but it would involve quite much rewrite of synaptic :(18:29
*** flyingfred0 has joined #maemo18:29
Jaffadevesh: running the entirety of a GUI app as root isn't great, you should be able to use the existing app manager's sudo entries so users won't even need to gainroot.18:29
deveshjaffa : i agree with you ... but as i said, it would be going away from synaptic common code base18:30
deveshjaffa : i would have preffered more the gksu approach18:31
mgedmindoes gksu work on the 770?18:31
Jaffadevesh: how does it invoke apt? system("apt-get", "install", packages) ?18:31
deveshmgedmin : not yet ;) would require the xomap to run with auth  etc ...18:31
deveshjaffa : all over ipc pipe's .. using a proprietary (though source is available) protocol18:32
deveshmgedmin : would also mean that user need to know his/her root password18:32
mgedminyou mean, xomap doesn't support xauth?18:33
manaPirataaah .. hacking in busybox works :)18:33
mgedminisn't that part of the core protocol?18:33
manaPiratbut i picked the wrong build, the one without ping -.-18:33
deveshmgedmin : yes it supports but it is not by default launched with those flags18:33
mgedminactually, I once tried to make sudo update-manager passwordless on my ubuntu system, and that broke it completely18:34
acydlordwordpress = the slow on n80018:34
mgedminI began to suspect that gksu/gksudo doesn't support passwordless sudo18:34
deveshmgedmin : but i suspect even with gksu, i would still run in that theme problem18:34
*** Disconnect has joined #maemo18:35
deveshmaybe best bet is to try run-standalone, i have though never tried that on device18:35
deveshand i think that still will not work ... i think the moment you sudo .. env is reset except for HOME and DISPLAY18:36
k-sdevesh: run sudo run-standalone.sh18:37
k-sdevesh: run sudo run-standalone.sh app18:37
deveshk-s : i will give it a shot18:38
deveshk-s : but does that mean i will have to add run-standalone.sh to sudoer file . that would be nasty18:39
mgedminmake your app a shell script that runs-standalone.sh on your app.bin18:40
k-sdevesh: add your own wrapper, that does run-standalone18:40
k-secho -e '#!/bin/sh\nrun-standalone.sh synaptic'  > /usr/bin/synaptic.sh18:41

bipolarkkito: what are your plans on using qt4 on the 800? I've done programing with qt4 and would love to be able to use it. A Kontact port would be awesome too. :D19:18
*** BrianRice has joined #maemo19:18
bipolaralthough kontact is currently qt319:18
kkitobipolar, hmmf but kontact iis kde...19:18
bipolarkkito: kontact would require kdelib, but not the entire kde system.19:19
bipolarkkito: but it's qt3 anyway, so it would have to wait until it was ported as part of kde 4.19:19
