IRC log of #maemo for Saturday, 2007-12-08

glass_yeah that sounds good00:00
GeneralAntillesGoogle ad crap?00:00
alteregoIt wouldn't be _so_ bad, but when hildon desktop starts it loses all the other home plugins ..00:00
ds3yeah, the units I have seen come up with a little toolbar by default that cycles through ads00:00
glass_alterego: i just wish all j2me vm's did that00:00
alteregoHah00:00
GeneralAntillesWTF are you talking about, ds3?00:00
GeneralAntillesThe Web shortcut applet?00:01
ds3letme see if I can find a reference to it; I helped a coworker setup theirs00:01
ds3GeneralAntilles: does that thing cycle between different things?00:01
*** amr has quit IRC00:01
GeneralAntillesDon't think so00:01
*** krau has quit IRC00:02
GeneralAntillesIt was setup for the Tableteer site when I first turned mine on00:02
GeneralAntillesthe 770 had the same thing.00:02
GeneralAntillesI disabled it.00:02
ds3let me find a picture00:02
alteregoIt's static00:03
GeneralAntillesand you have the same thing on your 770.00:04
ds3no, this one cycles through different things00:04
*** renatofilho has quit IRC00:04
GeneralAntillesI'm certain I can't imagine what that would be.00:05
GeneralAntillesI've used my N800 every day for 11 months.00:05
ds3i wonder if it is a recent thing they tacked on00:05
GeneralAntillesAlso doubtful00:05
ds3I can leave a wifi connection on and watch it cycle between different ads00:05
alteregoWhat OS version?00:06
GeneralAntillesas I've used every revision of the N800 firmware ever publicly released.00:06
ds3alterego: whatever buy.com is shipping00:06
GeneralAntillesIs it on the desktop?00:06
ds3yes00:06
*** pleemans has quit IRC00:07
GeneralAntillesThen it's either the Tableteer or the Web shortcut applet.00:07
GeneralAntillesBoth of which I disabled the day I got the device00:07
alteregoMe too ..00:07
GeneralAntillesand both of which you have on your 770.00:07
alteregoI only have the clock and my own ruby home applet on the desktop.00:07
ds3it looks like the tableteer thing but it was cycling between different things00:08
alteregoreset00:08
ds3I found the tableteer on the 77000:08
* alterego oopsies.00:08
ds3i wish i still have the 800 I had access to00:08
GeneralAntillesBut, seriously, ds3, you can turn it off00:08
ds3'k00:08
GeneralAntillesand since I'm baffled by what you might be talking about00:08
GeneralAntilleswe can conclude that it's not an issue. :)00:08
ds3fair enough00:08
alteregoHeh00:08
ds3different thing, anyone used one of those checked book style cases on the 800 in place of the hard cover on the 770?00:09
ds3s/checked/check/00:10
infobotds3 meant: different thing, anyone used one of those check book style cases on the 800 in place of the hard cover on the 770?00:10
vlad_for the record, the case that comes with the n810 is pretty damn ugly00:10
*** newca12 has joined #maemo00:10
vlad_it looks like something that a doctor would pull some kind of unpleasant testing tool out of00:10
ds3vlad_: it comes with a case? all I saw was a little sack00:10
vlad_(seriously, cyan and gray?)00:10
vlad_yeah, it's some light gray faux leather thing which has cyan felt on the inside00:10
vlad_well here, we live in the future, let me take a photo00:12
ds3alternatively, are there other physical protection for the 800 people use? I am a bit rough on things and the 770's hard case has been very good00:13
GeneralAntillesI just used the sunglasses-style case it came with.00:13
*** newca12 has quit IRC00:13
GeneralAntillesIt's resided in my pocket with my cellphone with no problems.00:13
vlad_apparently, it takes a while for the future to work, waiting for my photo to show up on flickr that I sent00:14
vlad_oh, so this isn't a hard case, it's just a leather sleeve thing00:14
alteregoIt's not even leather :P00:14
vlad_yeah, sorry, faux-leather00:14
lardman|afkwhat 64bit number has a low 32bit=-1 and a high 32bits=-1?00:15
alteregoI just thought it was felt ^_^00:15
vlad_the inside is felt00:15
alteregoI think I'll make a steal case for the N810 ^_^00:16
alteregoJust a metal sleeve.00:16
ds3a la the 770 case?00:16
alteregoSomething like that. More like the soft sleeve that comes with the N800, but rigid.00:17
ds3nice00:17
ds3wonder if the reed switches are still there00:17
alteregoHmm .. I can't find hciconfig O_O00:17
ds3cuz the close lid and autodisconnect to save power is really nice on the 77000:17
alteregoNo, there's no way the N800 has the magnetic sensor.00:18
alteregoThat's a silly thought.00:18
ds3one can wish =)00:18
GeneralAntillesds3, you want soft power off.00:18
alteregoO_o00:18
ds3GeneralAntilles: I want it done automatically when I put in my pocket00:18
GeneralAntillesIt'll toggle sleep, lock inputs, and switch to (and out of) offline mode with one long keypress.00:18
ds3I guess I can tolerate that00:19
GeneralAntillesIn fact, this is shorter than putting the hard cover on the 770.00:19
ds3prehaps I can add a working USB OTG stack to the wish list too?00:19
GeneralAntillesHonesty, the stand is a good trade for the hardcover.00:19
GeneralAntillesIt's already there, ds3.00:19
ds3that I will have to try for a few weeks to get a really good answer00:19
GeneralAntilless/Honesty/Honestly00:19
ds3GeneralAntilles: then why does flasher still offer the host/device options?00:20
ds3did I miss something?00:20
GeneralAntillesBecause it's old?00:20
GeneralAntillesBecause it might still be useful for some people?00:20
ds3oh so on the 800, I just need a power hub and that's it?00:20
alteregoI guess there's no hci tools in maemo4 :/00:20
p|does the n800 usb otg support usb powered hub ?00:20
glass_does the usb with n800 work nowadays, and with which devices+00:21
glass_?00:21
alteregop|, what do you mean "support USB powered hub"?00:21
ds3alterego: maybe they hid the HCI tools in the another partition?00:22
alteregoYou can plug it into a powered USB hub. That's how I get host mode to work, with devices that require more than OTG power.00:22
p|alterego, if i want to connect an usb keyboard and an external hd00:22
p|i need an hub00:22
alteregoAh, yes. I use a hub.00:22
alteregoSeems to work fine for me.00:22
p|but i've read that someone have problem with hub00:22
ds3alterego: do you get a serious battery life hit if you use the USB port?00:22
alteregods3, not that I've noticed.00:23
ds3I've had the 770 go from full battery to zilch in about an hour if have used a USB device and not rebooted yet00:23
alteregoThat's unfortunate.00:23
ds3heh, you're telling me... finding a dead N770 in your pocket is not a nice surprise ;)00:24
p|also i've noticed a battery life hit if i leave usb port connected to pc...00:24
ds3p|, 800 or 770?00:24
p|n80000:24
alteregoCan't say I've noticed that.00:25
ds3I can understand if it is connected (pull ups/downs/etc)00:25
alteregoI barely use the USB PC connection. Only when flashing really.00:25
alteregoWiFi and BT is enough connectivity for me. The USB PC connection is kind of pointless with the exception of flashing it.00:26
alteregoWhich will no longer be required ..00:26
ds3thumbdrives I think are the biggest reason I can think of...maybe occasional CDROM access00:26
p|i use also to exchange files n800<>pc00:26
alteregosshfs ftw.00:27
p|much slow :)00:27
alteregoIt's fine ..00:27
p|6-700k/s ?00:27
alteregoQuicker than my USB 1.1 laptop me things ..00:27
alterego~thinks ..00:27
ds3don't suppose anyone has setup their 770/800 to print?00:28
p|i've read someone have ported cups ?00:28
shackanalterego: I can't find neither hciconfig nor pand, no idea where they ended up00:31
p|shackan, os2008 ?00:31
shackanyes00:32
alteregoPain in the ass ..00:32
*** blithe has joined #maemo00:32
p|shackan, pand doesn't exixts on os200800:33
p|exists*00:33
p|search on itt, there is a workaround for this00:33
shackanp|: heh, I found out, but what was it replaced it?00:33
shackanmmkay00:34
p|using dbus00:34
p|never tried for now00:34
* lardman|afk is getting bored of debugging by adding yet more dbg() statements00:35
p|is fm radio for os2008 out ?00:36
*** lardman|afk is now known as lardman00:36
*** matt_c has quit IRC00:37
lardmanderf: you about for some tremor debugging?00:39
shackanp|: it is00:39
shackanp|: nothing relevant on ITT for 'pand' :(00:39
lardmanDoes anyone happen to know the usual function call progression through the tremor library....?00:41
* lardman is doubtful00:41
*** tchan has quit IRC00:42
p|shackan, wait, i try to find the thread00:43
*** tchan has joined #maemo00:43
shackanlardman: you already ported tremor to the dsp?00:44
*** aloisiojr has quit IRC00:44
lardmanshackan: yeah, it's running, but failing00:45
p|shackan, http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12666&highlight=pan+os200800:45
lardmanshackan: fails with OV_ENOTVORBIS, I'm trying to track down what's wrong to cause this00:46
shackanp|: thanks, unfortunately seeing these hacked shell scripts just makes me want to puke, grrrrrrrr00:46
shackanlardman: no idea :\00:47
lardmanany gdb gurus on here?00:47
shackanwhat do you need?00:48
lardmanI'm thinking I'll run the tremor library on arm and step through to see where the two diverge00:49
*** amr has joined #maemo00:49
*** zodman has joined #maemo00:49
shackanwhoa, good luck00:49
lardmanI was wondering if, after setting a breakpoint on a given function, I could obtain a list of the functions that have been called (is that a stack trace?)00:49
shackanthat's some serious spelunking00:49
shackanbt prints the stack trace00:50
kulvelardman: yeah, on the arm side you can get the backtrace (or stack?) like that00:50
lardmanyeah, arm doesn't like stack traces does it iitc00:50
shackanand it's not a list of all the function called until that moment00:50
shackanjust what's in the innermost frame up to the first caller00:50
shackanbut, you can step in the dsp?00:51
shackanthat's cool00:51
lardmanwhat would be good is a graphical debugger like MATLAB or Visual C++ (/me shows his Windows side ;) )00:51
shackanlardman: insight isn't that bad00:51
kulveshackan: I think you need a different tool for debugging the dsp side..00:51
lardmanshackan: no, I'm doing it by adding dbg() calls which send strings to dmesg00:51
*** niteOwl has quit IRC00:52
shackanow, sucks00:52
lardmansure does :)00:52
shackando libvorbis and tremor sound any different?00:53
lardmanI understand that xiph are thinking about turning the tremor code into fp and using that as the standard00:54
kulveI would guess that theoretically yes, but to human ear no (just guessing)00:54
*** niteOwl has joined #maemo00:54
lardmanmine may be related to code speed though more than listening differences00:54
kulveactually I'm not sure if there's a difference even theoretically..00:55
shackanok, I'll take tremor00:55
* lardman has no idea, I don't even listen to ogg00:55
lardmantremor is certainly faster than vorbis even when compiled for vfp00:56
*** kenne has quit IRC00:57
kulveat least on n800..00:57
*** truent has joined #maemo00:57

halleySorry for the inconvenience. garage has a maintenance break.01:25
halleyEr...01:25
halleyIt's been a day.01:25
lardmanIs it possible to use gdb on a binary that uses a command like this: ./ivorbisfile_example < sample.ogg > output.pcm01:28
shackanlardman: you could try gdb ./ivorbisfile_example and then at the prompt # run < sample.ogg > output.pcm01:31
shackanymmv01:31
lardmanthanks, think I'll just tweak it to read and write from file01:32
vlad_yes, gdb understands i/o redirection with < > and >>01:32
lardmanvlad_: doesn't seem to like it though01:32
vlad_hm01:32
vlad_check the help on run?01:32
vlad_you may need some var set01:32
lardmanah, so I do have to set it after starting gdb then?01:32
*** richieeee72 has quit IRC01:33
lardmanhmm, that seems to work, but gdb refuses to run the file01:34
K`zanMy local thrift store had USB adapters so I stocked up.  Only things really useful, I think, were the cables, double females and the mini-usb :)01:34
lardmanDon't know how to run.  Try "help target".01:34
lardmandoesn't seem to be anything to do with the redirections though01:35
shackanhmm, help target is only usefull for remote debugging01:35

foodsgiving you the idea of making a fantastic deal08:45
astro76still it's over half off what it was08:45
skibur_:)08:46
celestehit's also a lot cheaper than i've seen keyboards like that in the eu08:46
skibur_is that the best keyboard yet?08:46
astro76and fully BT HID keyboard compliant08:46
glass_it's a very nice kb08:47

astro76yeah igo is thinkoutside now08:50
astro76there's the stowaway and stowaway ultra-slim08:50
astro76stowaway is twice as thick folded, has 3 hinges instead of 1, and doesn't lock in the middle08:50

*** mbuf has joined #maemo08:52
glass_ah you mentioned then08:52
glass_the biggest problem with the kb there was a link some lines ago is the lack of numbers row08:53
glass_takes time to adjust to using terminal with it08:53
astro76you need to use the left Fn key for the numbers08:53
astro76a couple of other keys are in odd positions, but it's mostly standard08:53
*** milhouse has quit IRC08:53
glass_having to press the fn key isn't as bad as having to press "wrong" buttons for the numbers08:54
*** Luria has joined #maemo08:54

astro76yeah indeed, the symbols are on the correct numbers too08:54

Luriai dunno, but if i do it would be a business expense09:03
glass_biggest problem with 3g is that roaming is in generally expensive09:03
Luriabut i need a 3.6mb 3g device that does push09:03
Luriaand there are few options outside of wm phones09:03
Luriaif the n800 had a push email client i would use the k850i09:04

halleyguardian, I installed the maemocjk.garage package on my N810 and it works, but it's definitely alpha status.18:43
halleyguardian, I had to reflash after trying it once, then got it working.  Be careful.18:44
guardiani'm curious about one thing18:45
guardianappart from the input method18:45
halley?18:45
guardiando the new CJK fonts replace the default fonts of the device (like the font used in the system menus) ?18:45
guardianor does it just offer CJK fonts i can select as part of a font selection dialogbox, like when using notes application or maemopad ?18:46
*** Andy80 has quit IRC18:47
halleyGTK stack in general uses pango for glyph selection.  If you say you want font X, you get font X except where glyphs are missing.18:47
halleyThus the menus, etc. don't all switch and look funny, just because you add a new font to support some characters.18:47
halleyYou CAN choose to use mincho as a font for your text file, but you don't even have to.  It will say "dang, he used a funny character not in the usual Courier, oh, wait, mincho font can draw that one."18:49
halleyThat's one thing that really works very cleanly in GTK in my experience.  You don't get surprises or hassles with the fonts.18:49
guardianso any application outputting CJK unicode characters will get squares being displayed if it sticks with the default font18:50
halleyIf you have NO font for a glyph, it will draw mojibake (the crap boxes).18:50
*** guerby has joined #maemo18:51
halleyIf you have at least one font for a glyph, it will prefer your chosen font but fall back to other fonts automatically.18:51
guardianit would be cool if there was a single font capable of displaying any unicode character :)18:51
*** guerby has quit IRC18:51
*** guerby has joined #maemo18:52
halleyguardian, considering Unicode is built to be table-based, that's unlikely.  Plus, the Chinese might look great but the Arabic or Tengwar (Tolkien Faenorian Elvish) might look bad.18:52

GeneralAntillesYeah22:38
GeneralAntillesThere's a soft power-off mode that's available, too.22:38
*** Mikho has joined #maemo22:39
GeneralAntillesBasically lock, but it's single-button activation and you can have it toggle offline mode, too.22:39
GeneralAntillesUnfortunately completely broken with the current OS2008 release22:39
GeneralAntilleswe may or may not see it fixed with the final.22:39

GeneralAntillesYes.22:42
VulcanisWhat does soft poweroff do, if you keep it from doing offline mode?22:42
GeneralAntillesSame as locking, essentially.22:42
GeneralAntillesJust much more convenient.22:42
derfKeep you from having to hit two buttons.22:42
VulcanisPfft.22:43
VulcanisSo, I know I asked this before, but I was kinda unsure on the answers.22:43
VulcanisIf I turn off and lock, but do not go into offline mode22:43
VulcanisIs that what is 'idle', or does that still count as in use.22:43
Vulcanisfor what is on the battery meter22:43
GeneralAntillesIt's idle, unless there's some rampant process eating all your cycles.22:44

*** hfwilke has joined #maemo22:48
GeneralAntillesDepends on your use case22:48
GeneralAntillesIf you're driving around doing errands, it's going to have an effect on battery life22:48
GeneralAntillessince it'll be searching (unsuccessfully) for known, usable networks every 5 minutes.22:48
VulcanisMmm, alright.22:49
GeneralAntillesIf you go from home to work and back (and, perhaps, to a friend's) and all places have known, usable wifi, then no, it's not really going to impact battery life.22:49
*** l7 has quit IRC22:52

K`zanIs there something that needs loading to get USB devices detected?23:05

GeneralAntillesIf you don't have the right pin grounded, then you need to force host mode somehow.23:06
*** Vulcanis is now known as Vulc|NotHere23:06
K`zanGeneralAntilles: Power should be right, took the pins off a reguar USB cable which checked against what reference I found.23:07
K`zanJust plugged in a USB->serial converter and see nothing in dmesg...23:07
GeneralAntillesThere's some specific grounding for switching from slave to host23:07
GeneralAntillesEvidently that's not grounded correctly23:07
GeneralAntillesso you gotta force it.23:07
GeneralAntillesThere's probably something on the ITT wiki or the forums.23:07
K`zanBefore I pot it I'd like to figure out what "grounded correctly" means :-).23:08
GeneralAntillesOTG cables are different from regular cables.23:08
jabarowhy is it that if I try gcc -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 example_camera.c (c example from "How to Use Camera API") it fails? what else?23:08

GeneralAntillesAh, this guy will know. :P23:09
K`zann800 w/2008 for n80023:09
dragornThe 800 uses a Mini-B which has to be custom-made to be grounded to mini-a in a mini-b shell, or you have to use /sys to kick it into host mode23:09
dragorn810 uses a micro-ab which can take micro-a for host mode, and /sys didn't work (for me)23:10
*** ALEJO22 has joined #maemo23:10
*** Vulc|NotHere is now known as Vulcanis23:10
dragornalso as someone else pointed out (and I didn't believe until getting a multimeter), it only puts out 3.3 instead of 5v on USB in host mode so you might need to build a power injection cable, depending on the power draw of your device23:10
K`zanGot the power injector, no 5V to the n800, just signals and ground.23:11
*** mgedmin has quit IRC23:11
K`zan5V injected into whatever device is plugged in.23:11
dragornyou have to toggle it into host mode via /sys, I forget the file, find /sys -name mode23:11
dragornit'll be in devices/something_usb/mode (or usb_something mode)23:11
dragornecho 'host' to that file23:11
dragornas far as the grounded pin,it has to be inside the mini-b end, it's the fifth pin there.23:12
*** ALEJO22 has left #maemo23:12
