ccooke(as it happens, it's height more than anything - I'm 6'8. about 2.04â‚m)00:02
cymacsdoes anybody know how to teach apt to ignore the broken Packages.gz and use .bz2 or uncompressed instead?00:02
ds3dragorn: what about OS2006? now that I have a N800 headed my way, I am thinking of turning the 770 into a portable survey device00:02
dragornds3: os2006?  I dunno.  Depends if, by that point, i care to install yet another devkit.  This is why I generally have a "I don't build binaries" policy00:03
ds3dragorn: are there at least tarballs that are known to work with the 770 using OS2006?00:03
ds3ah00:03
dragornThere has never been a supported kismet build for the nokias, because I never got the quirks ironed out to a level where I'd say random people should be installing it, which is what a package implies00:03
ds3dragorn: how involved is compiling the source? i.e. do I really need the dev kit or would any ARMv5 Linux cross compile setup work?00:04
dragornin theory if you matched the libc and pcap and curses stuff you could do it w/out the devkit00:04
dragornos2007 runs on the 77000:04
ds3oh is that all.. I can fix that with -static ;)00:05
dragornthere are some significant issues still I have to figure out00:05
*** magicrobotmonkey has left #maemo00:05
dragornlike once you run it, if you don't reboot, you get about an hour and a half of battery life00:05
dragornalso no integration with the GPS nav system, but that's ok, since unless you put it in offline mode things get unhappy anyhow00:05
ds3haha, that sounds like my experience with the USB host functionality00:05
dragornyup00:05
dragorni've had similar fun with that00:05
dragorntho the 770 host functionality was pretty straightforward00:06
dragornthe 800 kernel panics on my device, the 810 actually works really well, but randomly won't enumerate some things and ignores the software mode toggles00:06
*** celesteh has joined #maemo00:06
ds3so if I put in 2007HE, is the battery drain problem likely to be resolved when you get the OS2008 done?00:06
*** zodman has quit IRC00:06
dragorn(random in what it won't enumerate, not random about if it enumerates a specific device)00:06
killfillhey.. whats that name of a mpd server?00:06
killfillcannot find one on freebsd.. :S00:07
dragornds3: yeah, I'm not planning to make a package until the interface stuff is reliable and non-destructive to your normal environment00:07
ds3dragorn: I think that's a problem with the code itself; the driver in the OMAP open source repository does the same thing00:07
dragornds3: and probably not until i figure out how to use navkit stuff, too00:07
dragornds3: Which are you talking about?  The wifi driver is closed, for all the good bits - the oss component is just a wrapper to translate SKBs into hidden stuff00:08
ds3dragorn: okay, so it'll be a while... is there any alternative 802.11b survey software around?00:08
ds3dragorn: I was refering to the USB host functionality problem not the WiFi00:08
dragornds3: The other option is you use a USB card, build a kernel driver, and use kismet with that, though it won't solve the navkit integration being missing00:08
ds3I have read up on the umac.ko situation :(00:08
dragornds3: and I'm considering making some usb driver packages for at least os2008, and depending how much it misbehaves, maybe os200700:09
ds3dragorn: do you know off hand which USB dongles will support kismet functionality?00:10
dragornds3: the problems faced by kismet will be the same w/ any sniffer sw you try to run on the builtin wifi00:10
dragornds3: anything w/ a native linux driver, barring endian issues in the drivers, though they're getting better00:10
dragornI've used a rt73 with the 770 a long time ago00:10
*** MikeL has quit IRC00:10
ds3which rt73 driver? the nextgen one or the original?00:10
ds3seem to recall some prism3 USBs having problems, etc... which is the reason I am asking00:11
dragornwhatever one was around a year+ ago00:11
dragornprism usb is probably a bad bet00:11
ds3both :/ but it is easy enough to check..got a rt73 dongle at work00:12

*** skibur has left #maemo00:13
ds3thanks for the update; the google results were all over the place00:13
*** zodman has joined #maemo00:15
dragorni spent a while trying to get people to send patches00:16
*** skibur has joined #maemo00:16
dragornbut since getting the 810, i'm re-inspired00:16
*** skibur has left #maemo00:16
*** skibur has joined #maemo00:16
ds3if you can solve the battery drain problem... that seems to be the worse00:16
dragornyeah00:16
*** freakazoid0223 has joined #maemo00:17
dragornwell theres 3.  That, offline mode, and gps00:17
skiburhello hackers00:17
ds3at that point even a source tar ball would be fine, IMO00:17
ds3since I don't have a GPS... ;)00:17
dragornwell, i'll at least make a script and a pkg assist directory, which is what i'm doing for the wispy code00:17
*** Tuco11 has quit IRC00:17
dragornso people can make packages for builds I don't, if there's enough demand00:17
ds3sources is perfectly fine esp since it is curses based00:18
*** L0cutusM has joined #maemo00:18
*** p| has joined #maemo00:18
p|re00:18
ds3and I can make static binaries with a generic ARMv5/v6 dev enviroment, that should be pretty easy to handle00:18
dragornds3: alright, well keep an eye on the svn changelog, i've got enough pending to do a release once I solve that stuff anyhow.00:19
ds3where is the repository?00:19
dragornlink is off the download page on the kismet site00:19

LateralusHave any of you experienced any issue with g_thread_pool* not calling a GFunc when you call g_thread_pool_push? Do you have to call something else that I'm just not seeing in the glib docs?01:02
*** zeenix has joined #maemo01:03
Lateralusget_num_threads is returning the same number as get_max_threads, before and after I call pool_push. unprocessed() and num_unused_threads() are both 001:03

skiburn800 can handle virtuaal mem?01:30
kbsingh_just wondering is there was a way to turn that keyboard word completion bar at the bottom of the screen OFF01:30
dragornkbsingh_: if you figure it out, let me know :P01:30
halleykbsingh_, yes, there's a way.01:30
dragornkbsingh_: I'd also like to turn off the brightness sensor01:30
skiburyes01:30
dragornhalley: on the 810?01:30
kbsingh_deleon, absurdly the only place that has them is misco.co.uk around here01:31
kbsingh_dragorn, ok :)01:31
skiburyes on the n81001:31
kbsingh_halley do tell >...01:31
skiburno on the N800 virtual mem01:31
halleykbsingh_, the maemo-japanese-support package (which is scim+anthy, see maemocjk.garage.maemo.org) has a side-effect of killing that completions bar.01:32
halleyIt's not JUST what you asked for, but it's possible.01:32
skiburanybody with a n800?01:32
halleyThough you might want to keep the completion bar... it learns your most common words instead of its useless suggestions.01:32
kbsingh_learning japaneese to turn that bar off :) man how drastic is that01:32
halleyYou don't have to learn Japanese :P01:33
kbsingh_halley, i need mostly ssh stuff, and i really only need to turn that bar off during ssh01:33
halleyThat bar is annoying though, when it shows you your passwords.  :)01:33
kbsingh_ooohh.. does it ?01:34
halleySometimes.01:34

kbsingh_fantastic to install the cjk support you need to click the icon that has your lang in it01:42
ccookethe repository is still buggered, though :-/01:42

jacqueshmm, that sucks about repo01:43
jacquesrepo is kinda important01:43
ccookethe maemo repositories have been broken for at least 24 hours01:44
kbsingh_btw, i have much b/w if people want to download os2998, i can host it01:44
kbsingh_on a couple of 300mbps type machines01:44
jacques4:17 averaging 535.74kB/s01:44
ds3nice OS 2998... does that support OGG yet? ;)01:45
ccookekbsingh_: there are alternate links around. On the other hand (as was pointed out to me :-) the agreement when you downlaod os2008 explicitly prevents you from redistributing it :-)01:45
ccookeds3: nah, slated for 3000 ;-)01:45
hugolpAnyone here got the load-applet (shows memory and cpu states in the applet bar) working in the new OS2008?01:45

Cptnodegardthx :) ordered a N800 today seeing it was 35% off in a winter sale of a online store over here, and looking into what the thing can do ^^02:02

kbsingh_yabbas, you will find that play.com are not actually shipping at that price02:03
Cptnodegardgot mine for 360 USD, which isnt bad seeing that both rpices and saleries is twice that of the US here in norway... so basically it would be like 180, US wise. i saw the price on play, sick02:04
Cptnodegardtoo bad they dont ship here02:04
richdyyabbas, I'm sorry, which alternative repository link?02:04

*** TWPEAR has joined #maemo02:06
Cptnodegardspeaking of play.com, got a 5.6" lcd meant for the old PS2 from there for 18 quids, msrp is 99. They shipped it here even if its electronics because its classified as game. Gonne hook it up to psp, mp3 player or dvd - seeing monitor prices i found it to be a nice deal02:06
TWPEARI have just updated my neighbours N800 to OS2008 - getting repository errors from Nokia - md5sums do not match (for certified) - is anyone aware of this/know how to work around?02:07

yabbasthe settings menus are a lot nicer, but the main menu buttons are poo02:11
richdyI liked Canola, because it was the only media player that could scan my media within a reasonable amount of time.  Even the default media player doesn't cache the song list for each screen, so it ... takes ... for ... ever with 1000+ songs02:11
chencayabbas: what you didn't like in this version of Canola?02:11
yabbaschenca, still playing with it tbh.  I didn't like the "homescreen" which was expected because they told us we wouldn't like it (yet) :)02:12
hugolprichdy:  theres a media player at maemo.org that looks nice and does that as well02:12

CptnodegardIM attending the first year of bachelor in economics and administration, this year i get a lift from a classmate - but hes gone next year, which means bus. And from experience, carrying the laptop bag with books etc in it kills my shoulder after a single walk home from the bus, so i needed something lighter for when i dont 100% need the lappy. was considering the eee pc, and the cowon q5, but then i saw the n800 that cheap and was sold :D02:28
Cptnodegard[/random crap ^^]02:28

lardmanuk for example02:30
lardmantho here it;s £32902:30
Cptnodegardoh, almost forgot. the mplayer, can it play divx that you (dont) download from torrents (because its illegal)?02:30
Cptnodegardnorway02:30
kbsingh_lardman, diff model.02:30
Cptnodegardmean the standard 350MB per 43 min things02:30
kbsingh_its cheaper in the uk...02:30
lardmanah, my apologies02:30
Cptnodegardn800 is 130 on play.com02:31
shackanwow02:31
lardmanyes, quite a bargain02:31
ds3$130!?02:31
kbsingh_they decided it was not worth sellin the 256mb/2gb model in the uk02:31

Cptnodegardwas googling around for mplayer info, but didnt see anything specific about the standard divx/xvid used for TV show rips02:31
ds3oh :/02:31
shackananyway, I scale down videos and they play just fine, even under 350Mb/episode02:31
Cptnodegardso no conversion needed for such?02:32
shackanCptnodegard: because there's no "standard"02:32

Cptnodegardgot two more q's ^^: 1: doe sthe N800 charge through USB? for external batteries and such. 2: saw a vid aof a dude using a USB keyboard on a Nokia 770 by using mini usb to usb adapter, is that possible with the n800 or does it have to be BT?02:39
lardmansp3000: this may have been covered before, but are the debs at fault or the repo? I can access the repo with a browser02:39
lardmanCptnodegard: 1. No; 2. either is possible02:40
kbsingh_so what email client is everyone using on the platform?02:40

pupnikthat's odd08:40
pupnik'nerfed'?08:40
snakit used to come up when i touched the edit box with my finger08:41
snaknow i have to hit once to get the normal keyboard up08:41
snakthen double tap it again to get the finger keyboard08:41
snakhow is that usable?08:42
snakam i using this wrong or something?08:43
pupnikduno08:44
pupnikfor me, fingers contain too much risk of scratching screen08:45
snakcut your nails -.-08:45
snaki mean08:45
snakclaws :p08:45
astro76you can press the button int he center of the d-pad to switch to finger keyboard08:45
astro76scratching screen? why aren't you using a screen protector? plus really the screen is so durable the stylus won't scratch it without a protector08:46
snakastro76: that seems to work with google, but not in skype08:47
snaki still have to finger the edit box and then hit square08:47
astro76yeah that's what I meant08:47
snakbut it used to be that you just fingered it once, it detected ur huge finger and it can up fingerboard08:48
astro76indeed, and it was deliberately removed08:48
snakwhat? why downgrade that? it was brilliant08:48

pupnikastro76: i have no protector, use no fingers, have no scratches -- the problem is dirt on fingers and dragging imo08:52
snakdragging with fingers is a pain08:53

snakturn if off?12:01

snakfell free to correct me if im wrong there12:57
snakbut you'd have to measure and count the current in and from the battery12:57
youamsnak: i'm not sure. something like  "i was at 10% battery when i got plugged in, last full charge took 2 hours, now i'm on for 45 minutes"  should give a good enough estimate, even when the charge is not linear12:57

MikeLRocketman: For info here are bugs already added for Canola2 tracker https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=125&atid=198913:35
tontsaBastich, if you are going just for ebook reading then get n800 instead. you don't need the keyboard for that13:35
RocketmanI tried restarting and my list of feeds vanished13:35
Rocketmanso it appears to corrupt the feed list somehow13:35

Bastichthe price is not so much of a matter here and keyboard always comes in handy13:35
MikeLRocketman: Not tried podcasts yet myself so cannot comment13:35
Rocketmanno time like the present13:36
tontsasnak, chinook is codename for current 2008. bora was i think beta-os2008 and no idea about mistral13:36
tontsacould be 200713:36
Bastichi was just concerned about the platform, can you get a decent e-reader for maemo?13:36
yabbas|compilinBastich, what tontsa  said .. although I will add.  eBooks, PDFs, etc work VERY well on the tablets.  Unfortunately you MAY find that the screen is too small to be  comfortable.  You will have to zoom into the page, and unfortunateyl that  means it doesn't fit properly on the screen.13:36
tontsaBastich, FBReader is pretty good13:36
snaktontsa: correct. 5 points13:36
yabbas|compilinBastich, default PDF reader is great.  FBReader is great.  eVince is great.13:37
MikeLRocketman: There are already bugs included for podcasts at link I provided13:37

Bastichand what's your opinion about the processor, it's supposed to have a 400 Mhz proc, but some of the new pdas coming on the market have 624 mhz processors, don't you think its a little drawback for nokia 810?14:01
alteregoBastich, have you used an N810 or an N800?14:01
Bastichnope, never, that's why i'm so fricking curious now14:02
alteregoWe don't need those extra ticks :P14:02
alteregoIt works fine as is.14:02
alteregoMaybe the next iteration will have a faster CPU ..14:02
Bastichby that you mean that linux kernel on 400 mhz is more efficient than windows mobile on 624 mhz machine?14:03
alteregoNo, I'm saying why compare them if you're happy with how it operates?14:03
alteregoThere's no point in being obsessive over clock ticks. If the system runs fine on the hardware it's on then why does it matter?14:03

hugolpBastich:  the n800 is a great deal14:13
hugolpI have one for 3 weeks now and Im happier than I though I would be14:13
tontsai personally can't stand windows mobile.. but that's mostly due to it not having good ssh-client that would do copy-paste between other apps14:13

hugolpI want to see the new HTC with android next year14:14

hugolptontsa:  it has its own interpreter yeah14:15
Bastichthat's my problem, this is gonna be my first pda, so i have no experience with either, wm or maemo, i'm still unbiased14:15
hugolpBastich:  the n800 is great, specially because of the graphic resolution14:16
tontsaBastich, if your country has concept of mail order that you can return item in 14 days or something14:16
tontsathen order both that way and return the other :)14:16

Bastichi understand, i'm hungry for such device for too long now, all i'm doing now is thinking what new software i'm gonna stuff in, no matter i don't own one yet14:18

alteregoThere's a lot more software for Windows Mobile than Maemo.14:20

alteregoThe N810 is a better machine in my opinion. But the price difference is quite a bit. So if you've got the extra and it's not going to hurt the bank then go for the N810. But the N800 is a great deal.14:28
hugolpBastich:  N800 and N810 has the same display14:28

Bastichuh, yes, my mistake, you know, i'm a lil bit medically oriented, so i planned to use some medical utilities and software for looking up medical infos, like database of drugs and diagnoses and stuff like that14:49
alteregoMore productive ..14:49
OkkoVRe: they do list team members on the user site, maybe we could call them :-)14:49
Bastichbut those are only for pdas and wm14:50
mardi_Thanks Okko14:50
VReBastich: You can run palm programs quite well in emulator14:50
Bastichbut palm and pda is not the same, is it14:50
Okkomardi_: you could try to grab all the necessary packages (libs) from other sources but it would probably take all xmas14:51
snakalterego: i dont know ruby and im not really inspired to learn it14:51
VReBastich: yeah, but there is a lot of that stuff for palm14:51
snakbesides, i dont know anyting about linux, thats probably a better place to start14:51

yabbas|compilinnp :)15:18
Bastichyou know what's interesting there's no mention about the processor of N800 in the product specs, and it's just 320 mhz compared to 400 mhz of n810, so one more difference15:21
yabbas|compilinBastich, they're the same processors TI OMAP242015:22
yabbas|compilinBastich, selectable software clock - which means as of OS2008 N800 and N810 run the same speed (400MHz)15:23
Bastichoh, now i remember that i've read it somewhere, the higher speed comes with the firmware upgrade, true?15:24
yabbas|compilinyup15:24
Bastichgreat, n800 is still in the game :)15:24
hugolpyabbas|compilin:  thats why OS2008 behaves so much better than OS200715:24

cbx33ie which repository to add17:37

snakright?17:38
cbx33hmmm not necessarily17:39
snak:S17:39
cbx33well in some ways I guess17:39
cbx33it just means that17:39
cbx33someone can post a single file which will not only give you the file you want, but will add the repo so that if that file requires deps that are not in the standard repos they get pulled too17:40

Cptnodegardhmmmm.... isnt os08 backwards compatible with os07?21:29
dick-richardsonCptnodegard: depends...what are you having problems with?21:30
halleyNot always.21:30
Cptnodegardnothign as i havent gotten my IT yet. but im reading through ITT, and people are talking about something called a repository which from what i can tell is a online application server or something, and one person commented "most of the apps available for 07 is available for 08", which lead me to believe the apps had to be recompiled or something21:31
halleyThey often have.21:31
lnx^did someone manage to write the wrapper yet?21:32
Cptnodegardbeing used to the PSP scene, the whole idea of updating the OS to be automatically sounds like something that will take a lot of work and might brick the whole thing. havent used anything linux before so trying to read up, but its a lot to go through21:32
dick-richardsonCptnodegard: nah, anything that bricks the device is found and fixed before it'd be released to beta21:33
Cptnodegardah ic21:33
dick-richardsonactually, come to think of it...anyone hear of a bricked tablet?21:34
Cptnodegardlooking for a beginners guide to all of this, but so far unsuccsessful wtih the exception of a few threads with tips on what to do, just not how to do it xD21:34
dick-richardsonCptnodegard: what do you want to do?21:34
halleydick-richardson, nothing that couldn't be solved with a reflash.21:34
dick-richardsonhalley: yeah, that's what I rather figured21:35
halleydick-richardson, which is what a true "brick" means (unlike the iPhone people who think "bricked" means "erased my contact list")21:35
dick-richardsonthese corrupted debs make me grumpy. I can't download my podcasts on my tablet directly :/21:35
dick-richardsonhalley: lol!21:35
mgedminhm, I thought "brick" means "even a reflash can't fix it without specialized hardware"21:36
halleymgedmin, that's what I'm saying21:36
Cptnodegardwell as i said, havent gotten my n800 yet. guess it will be here some time after christmas, trying to read up on what i should do with the thing - but with the capabilites of this thing its a bit overwhelming. the whole os07/os08 thing i see is something that just came out, and being used to both my psp and my mp3 player's rather creepy firmware updates that might or might not kill the whole thing, im trying to find out if installing the new os21:37

Cptnodegardi see that gnumeric doesnt seem to work on os08, i'd be very happy if i could have ms excel files on it seeing i study economics, and fro what i could find out gnumeric is the only choice21:38

craftonWhat means size mismatch error?22:45
mardi_disable other Repos when you install, especially  "Extras"22:45
mardi_will grab the Python bits you need too, from same place22:45
mgedmincrafton: it means that there's some sort of a proxy server between you and repository.maemo.org that serves cached HTML error pages instead of real packages22:46
timelyxsp3000: reload?22:47
*** mbuf has quit IRC22:47
craftonWow.. true. if I acces the file mismatching.. there's a big body HTML saying.. "The service is temporarily unavailable. We are very sorry for the inconvinience it may cause."22:48
craftonThis means, there's a part of the repos still down22:49
timelyxsucks, doesn't it? :)22:49
kbsinghcrafton: example of a file that is not working for you ?22:50

kbsinghoh.... akamai serves up repository.m.o22:51
craftonexample: http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/chinook/free/p/pygame/python2.5-pygame_1.7.1-1osso1_armel.deb22:51
kbsinghcrafton: works for me here22:51
kbsinghtry this22:51
kbsinghactually, you cant try that :D22:52
kbsinghyou cant hit the ip directly22:52
kbsinghbut, maybe you can fudge something into /etc/hosts22:53
kbsinghand have it only hit the one machine that is actually working fine22:53

kbsingh and both of them seem to be working fine for me at the moent22:55
Locutus6711can somebody help me?22:55
kbsinghcrafton: which part of the world are you in ? from a machine, try doing 'host repository.maemo.org' and see what ip's you get22:56
craftonok. I'm in Spain. gonna try it.22:56
sp3000Locutus6711: what happens when you do what?22:56
Locutus6711I have switched it off and now it did nothing, when i hold the startbutton22:57

sp3000crafton: does http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/chinook/free/p/pygame/python2.5-pygame_1.7.1-1osso1_armel.deb?meh work for you?22:57
* sp3000 is curious since it either does or doesn't, apparently22:57
timelyxsp3000: i think it depends on which unhappy server you get22:57
timelyxmine is a "doesn't" :)22:58

kbsinghcrafton: you need to get the quotes right22:59
kbsinghtimelyx: you try that as well, the .199 machine is indeed working fine for me, for that python deb23:00
sp3000kbsingh: erm, do you want to overwrite hosts?23:00
Locutus6711The device is absolutly new, i have switched it on for the first time 5 hours ago23:00
kbsingherr23:00
kbsinghs/>/>>/23:00
MikeLLocutus6711: how did problem start, have you left it charging for a while after removing and replacing the battery23:00
timelyxyeah um > is a *Bad* idea23:00
timelyxespecially, on os x where supposedly it'll break the world :)23:00
kbsinghtimelyx: really ? you have much in the hosts file ?23:00
timelyx# Host Database23:01
timelyx#23:01
timelyx# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface23:01
timelyx# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.23:01
kbsinghumm.. i'd have thought you were doing this on the device23:01
* timelyx shrugs23:01
timelyxthe echo command is compatible w/ lots of platforms23:01
timelyxand i ran an echo command on my mac :)23:01
kbsinghyeah, well use >> in that echo then, and see if it works for you23:02
MikeLLocutus6711: so has it ever worked, did you leave it charging long enough?23:02
Locutus6711First I charged it totally. then I installed some apps and used the webbrowser. then I swiched it off. Replaced the SD-card by a 2GB card and tried to switch it on again23:02
kbsinghmight need to refresh the repo metadata once23:02
Locutus6711yes23:02
MikeLLocutus6711: hmm, removed the card you installed etc. and still nothing?23:03
Locutus6711yes, i tried to insert the old card again. then i tried with no card. but both didnt work23:04
* timelyx frowns23:04
timelyxsp3000, do symlinks get resolved early or late in execution?23:04
* timelyx guesses early :(23:04
craftonkbsingh same prolem23:06
MikeLLocutus6711: thats strange for sure.  leave it charging for a while perhap battery was totally flattend by a bad programme running when you thought it was closed23:06
craftonmmm...  wel well23:06
craftondoesn't saved at /etc/hosts23:07
craftongonna write it manually23:07
dragornoh good.  The os2008 final release breaks usb for my devices.23:07
*** shackan has quit IRC23:08
Locutus6711no idea?23:08
MikeLLocutus6711: sometimes a bad prgramme can flatten battery when you leave it on standby for an hour or two...but normally with charger connected you would see some life and charging on the display etc.23:08
kbsinghcrafton: interesting.23:09
kbsinghcrafton: when you ping repository.maemo.org you get the ip you just added to /etc/hosts ?23:09
Locutus6711when i insert the charger nothing happens23:09
craftonyes23:10
craftonkbsingh, the same ip, but still can't downloading those files23:10
*** matt_c has joined #maemo23:10
kbsinghare you behind a proxy perhaps ?23:10
craftonOfficialy not, I have a cable-modem connection, with ONO, but If i were behind I proxy.. this doesn't surprise me.. they are popular for restricting p2p and some staff23:13
MikeLLocutus6711: Take it back to shop, you might just be unlucky, cant believe that just changing the SD card hosed your unit?  (so it was working prior to changing SD card in external/internal slot) back cover is on etc23:13
*** aloisiojr has joined #maemo23:14
craftonIs possible that the 84.53.177.18 isn't totally updated between others servers yet?23:15
ol_schoola kbsingh: i can concur with crafton . same behavior. no proxy, ping returns ip from host file23:15
ol_schoolasame happened with timelyx's ip23:16
kbsinghcrafton: you dont want .1823:16
kbsinghthe ip you want is : 84.53.134.19923:16
Locutus6711it was the internal slot and back cover is on23:16

ol_schoolai've never suspected a comcrap proxy before, hmmmm23:18
craftonbut you should be right...23:18
MikeLLocutus6711: Charger not working?23:18
ol_schoolaan apt-get install of problem apps gives me size mismatch23:18
craftoni putted .199 but when i did the host repository.ma...   got .18 and .3423:18
ol_schoolai can wget the debs using the ?kitten append, tho23:19
craftoni gonna change23:19
craftonwait23:19
MikeLLocutus6711: try with another charger?23:19
mgedminol_schoola, crafton: AFAIU the proxy is there on the nokia side23:19
mgedminisn't it?23:19
ol_schoolasurely they have one, i thought we were trying an end run, must go back and rte-read the logs to see what i missed in this adventure ;)23:20
Locutus6711i will try it, i have to search another charger23:20
kbsinghthere should'nt really be a proxy, the repo seems to come from akamai servers, which will load spread23:21
ol_schoolai DID however get a clean install of battlegweled using the app mgr23:21
craftonmgedmin, oficially, am not behind a proxy23:21
craftongotta go.. see you later23:21
*** crafton has quit IRC23:21

Bastichwould abiword run under maemo?23:25
* sp3000 tests something random23:25
MikeLLocutus6711: Obviously only try it with another compatible charger, was thinking you could go to a mobile shop or something and ask them to let you try a compatible charger. or perhaps a friend has a new Nokia phone with same type of charger.23:25
sp3000hmm, no, propending your username with label: doesn't get only mail for that label with pop ;)23:25
MikeLLocutus6711: this is purely to narrow down the problem23:25
K`zanWhere are the logs kept on the n800, /var/log is empty, it has to get dmesg from somplace :-)?23:26
Locutus6711yes, but i think it can't be the battery23:26
MikeLLocutus6711: Why23:26
kbsinghK`zan: dmesg does not come from /var/log/ does it ?23:26
kbsinghdmesg is the kernel log buffer23:27
K`zankbsingh: I thought so, but evidentally I am wrong.23:27
Locutus6711because I switched it off, when it was still charged and I tried to switch it on only one minute later23:27
kbsinghmost of dmesg is normally also put through syslog and diverted either to disk or remote...23:27
K`zanwhich brings us back to the original question, where does the n800 hide the logs?23:27
timelyxyou have to install sysklogd23:28
fatal-in the memory only, I believe23:28
timelyxby default it hides most of them in /dev/null23:28
K`zanscp is failing and nothing in dmesg.23:28
K`zanSigh.  Ok, thanks folks.23:28
kbsinghwhats scp got to do with dmesg ???!23:28
timelyxuse scp -v -v -v23:28
K`zankbsingh: You tell me?23:28
kbsinghunless you have selinux getting in the way or another kernel level acl :D23:28
K`zantimelyx: Thanks, appreciate the help!23:28
kbsinghor scp -vvv23:29
MikeLLocutus6711: Oh well in that case you seem to have no option but to return your device, sorry cant be of more help.23:29
Locutus6711yes, i will have to do that. thank you.23:30
