Fayep | Unique; some packages can't be authed | 02:51 |
unique311 | or call the pixel doubling after sdl_flip(screen) is called | 02:51 |
jott | pupnik_: http://sse2.net/libSDL-1.2.so.0.7.1 | 02:51 |
pupnik_ | nah i think you're going to need to rewrite osd_gfx_put_image_normal(void) | 02:51 |
jott | it's quite simple hack.. maybe this can be beautified.. hold on i'll prepare a patch | 02:52 |
jott | dosbox additionaly needs the "usescancodes=false" and some tweaking of the mapper.txt | 02:53 |
jott | but this is straight forward | 02:53 |
unique311 | Fayep, SOL | 02:53 |
unique311 | you can alway use the GOOGLE before you flash. | 02:53 |
jott | but all apps using keysym should work.. scancodes can't really work by design .. if we do not make a REAL hack ;) | 02:53 |
pupnik_ | yes scancodes=false | 02:53 |
pupnik_ | did shifted keys work also jott? | 02:54 |
jott | yes | 02:54 |
jott | dosbox seems to work quite nice here now ;) | 02:54 |
Fayep | If I don't coome bback.... | 02:55 |
jott | i suppose other sdl apps should work too.. but still i'm not sure about possible regressions.. | 02:55 |

pupnik_ | wow nice job | 02:58 |
*** buck68 has joined #maemo | 02:59 | |
jott | it was educational as i learned more about xlib and it's event handling ;) | 02:59 |
jott | anyway.. you can check the binary if you like and test it for regressions.. | 02:59 |
*** buck68 has left #maemo | 03:00 | |
jott | i suppose the only real problem are situations where the Fn (AltGr) key is bound to something exclusive | 03:00 |
jott | but even this should not be a big problem | 03:00 |
pupnik_ | will do right away. i don't understand yet how it requires changes to dosbox keymapper.txt | 03:00 |
*** megabyte405 has quit IRC | 03:00 | |
jott | oh.. only because of the usescancodes=false | 03:00 |
jott | the ö ä ü keys are not working.. (maybe it's even only a problem with a german layout) | 03:01 |
*** megabyte405 has joined #maemo | 03:01 | |
jott | so just tweaking .. | 03:01 |
pupnik_ | i also have a german layout. those keys aren't top priority for dosbox, i think :) | 03:02 |
*** megabyte405 has quit IRC | 03:02 | |
*** ken has joined #maemo | 03:03 | |
jott | oh i mapped them to the us keys ;) | 03:03 |
jott | as : is missing .. and that's critical ;) | 03:04 |
jott | (as shift . = >) | 03:04 |
jott | but anyway i suppose this might only be a problem for non-us layouts ;) | 03:04 |
pupnik_ | I'm a little unclear on this. Doesn't X handle the keyboard layout localisation and pass correct keys to sdl? | 03:04 |
jott | yes.. and dosbox makes it's own mapping.. | 03:05 |
pupnik_ | ok right | 03:05 |
jott | you could probably write a keyboard tsr driver ;) | 03:05 |
*** [pablo] has quit IRC | 03:05 | |
jott | or find an old one ;) | 03:05 |
pupnik_ | that's what i was thinking we had to do anyway - just take SDL's keys verbatim and not remap | 03:06 |
dolske | Is there a way to bring up the onscreen keyboard on a N810? | 03:06 |
jott | yeah well the mapping.txt works quite nice. even tought it might not be generic | 03:06 |
jott | http://sse2.net/mapper.txt that's what i got atm.. (derived from your mapper.txt) | 03:07 |
*** Zetx has quit IRC | 03:08 | |

pupnik_ | i'm getting some problems with 'stuck key' and repeats | 03:33 |

jott | hmm i'll test it with my simple test app ;) | 03:35 |
*** dashiad has joined #maemo | 03:36 | |

*** JussiP has quit IRC | 03:42 | |
jott | hmm yeah i suppose a fix in the libsdl layer is not that trivial.. | 03:43 |
*** desrt has joined #maemo | 03:44 | |
pupnik_ | it would be something like 1) detect FN keydown 2) store next keydown if FN is still down 3) if FN key is released, release the stored key | 03:45 |
lcdd | cool. i didn't expect video from mit world to work on the tablet | 03:45 |
pupnik_ | because otherwise you will not detect a keyup event on that key | 03:46 |
jott | something like that.. but there are a couple of abstraction layers inbetween .. | 03:46 |
jott | (my patch currently sits in X11_TranslateKey) | 03:46 |
pupnik_ | yes. it's not crucial. users can learn to release key before releasing fn. | 03:47 |
jott | maybe the X11_TranslateKey could be enhanced such that it remembers the Fn key.. | 03:47 |
jott | pupnik_: yeah i also think its more important to have the keys at all for now ;) | 03:47 |
jott | but still it's something one will see sooner or later and depending on the application based event handling it can have ugly side effects | 03:47 |
pupnik_ | maybe there are other solutions, but afaict one needs to store state of FN key and last-key-pressed-while-fn-key-depressed somewhere | 03:51 |
jott | yeah something like that would also be my first idea. | 03:51 |
jott | and you can also trigger more than one key-down event at once ;/ | 03:53 |
jott | like press 1-2-3-4 at the same time .. | 03:53 |
pupnik_ | ok true | 03:54 |
jott | those things are a bit more sophisticated to do right i guess ;) | 03:54 |
pupnik_ | dosbox only cares about last one pressed, but other apps might care about them all | 03:54 |
jott | yeah.. well it's clearly a hack for now.. but i think there is no really good solution without changing quite a few parts in the SDL X11 part.. | 03:56 |

xment | oh, that's nasty | 04:00 |
xment | jott: thanks | 04:00 |
jott | np.. | 04:00 |
jott | pupnik_: yeah.. well maybe in a bit less hacky way? ;)... | 04:01 |
jott | maybe there is even a real clean and trivial solution ;) | 04:01 |
pupnik_ | you would know better than me. maybe a post to the maemo-dev mailling list is in order | 04:01 |
pupnik_ | or bugs.maemo.org | 04:02 |
jott | yeah.. i guess bugs.maemo.org is the appropiate place | 04:02 |
jott | or check with the sdl guys.. | 04:02 |
jott | don't really know whom to blame for this.. | 04:02 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: jott: Guys, you seem to know what you are talking about. Do you think we will ever see povervr on n8x0 ? | 04:04 |
jott | spirytusick: i doubt there will be an official driver.. | 04:05 |
spirytusick | jott: pitty :( such a waste of core space :( | 04:05 |
jott | but it's not entirely impossible to hack some foreign driver to use the n8x0 lcd... | 04:06 |
*** smackpotato has joined #maemo | 04:06 | |
spirytusick | jott: is the lcd controller that bad ? | 04:06 |
jott | depends what you call bad.. but it has serious bandwith problems.. | 04:07 |
jott | width. | 04:07 |
lcuk_2 | jott, the lcd controller is the only part which has direct access to the screen, coupled with the (summised) limited resolution of powervr (640*480) makes for anything built using a cludge | 04:07 |
jott | lcuk_2: that's the reason why i doubt an official driver.. | 04:08 |
lcuk_2 | you would have to render to the internal framebuffer on the 2420 then copy out of there onto the lcd | 04:08 |
lcuk_2 | yer same here | 04:08 |
jott | but still there would be ways to push the framebuffer from the powervr to the lcd controller.. | 04:08 |
jott | yep | 04:08 |
jott | that's what i was thinking about .. | 04:08 |
spirytusick | jott: wouldn't it be slower anyway ? | 04:08 |
jott | sure.. | 04:08 |
lcuk_2 | its not like nokia (a) cant afford drivers, (b) doesnt have skill to do it - its already in symbian devices on other nseries devices. | 04:08 |
pupnik_ | nokia might not want to have open-source emus and games compete with n-gage | 04:09 |
jott | lcuk_2: but all the nseries devices have no intermediate lcd controller.. | 04:09 |
pupnik_ | right | 04:09 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: I suppose you might be right with this one | 04:10 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: however as of this moment n-gage platform is sort of non-existent yet | 04:10 |
lcuk_2 | spiry, depends on how hard you are working the 3d. for every frame you would have a time delta N ontop of any hardware 3d rendering. software rendering can allow so many operations in same timeframe, if the 3d part can do more then its a winner | 04:10 |
lcuk_2 | jott thats because they are lower resultion | 04:10 |
jott | lcuk_2: i know. | 04:11 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: and judging by the quality of games available as demos, I would rather play the 3rd party emus | 04:11 |
lcuk_2 | :) | 04:11 |
pupnik_ | powervr would be a godsend for a psx emulator | 04:11 |
jott | anyway.. the powervr is quite fast.. | 04:11 |
jott | and it would definitely bring a perfomance boost to anything 3d related.. | 04:11 |
spirytusick | lcuk_2: I suppose it would still be possible to use it for quick scaling/flitering | 04:11 |
lcuk_2 | yer if you can fill it up and make use of it it will be beneficial | 04:11 |
jott | so it would run with with pixel doubleing enabled etc.. | 04:12 |
*** becksbier has joined #maemo | 04:12 | |
lcuk_2 | i would be happy running in 640*480 no doubling | 04:12 |
jott | lcuk_2: yeah.. but then again this might cause bandwith trouble... | 04:12 |
jott | anyway.. | 04:12 |
jott | TI took the driver from their page :( | 04:13 |
|tbb| | what does that mean -> Requested IAP is not connected and timed flag is set | 04:13 |
spirytusick | well even 400x240 with doubling would not be so bad as long as it was accelerated | 04:13 |
jott | spirytusick: i totally agree.. | 04:13 |
lcuk_2 | how about *ANYTHING* would be good so long as we used the hardware on the device which we paid for... | 04:13 |
jott | well given some effort there have to be ways to do this i suppose.. | 04:13 |
spirytusick | and if we could get accelerated composite extension, then some os2008 home applets might even become usable | 04:14 |
lcuk_2 | to be honest i wouldnt care if it was slower, i just want to see it working | 04:14 |
jott | yeah any us citizen want to file a class action lawsuite? ;) | 04:14 |
smackpotato | does the n810 have any hidden hardware. like an accelerometer for example | 04:14 |

pupnik_ | i am betting that the n9x0 will have no choice in the market but to provide opengl es | 04:15 |
lcuk_2 | you mean like this... | 04:15 |
spirytusick | lcuk_2: btw, it would also make it nice and easy to build future plus opengl es apps which would then fly on some not yet revealed beast of a tablet in the future | 04:15 |
jott | http://www.htcclassaction.org/ they even have a webpage ;) | 04:15 |
jott | lets register internettabletclassaction.org ;) | 04:16 |
lcuk_2 | jott i know, i immediately saw the parallels | 04:16 |
pupnik_ | i think legally, you only paid for the functionality advertised | 04:16 |
*** mankod has joined #maemo | 04:16 | |
jott | pupnik_: hey an omap2420 was advertised ;P | 04:17 |
lcuk_2 | but since i am in uk i should sit back with a cup of tea and play golf or something and not care that the hardware in front of me is in the stone ages | 04:17 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: everything is relative :) especialy with lawyers :) | 04:17 |
lcuk_2 | no, i paid for a nokia n series device which runs on the omap 2420 mobile chipset which incororates powervr graphics (*like the rest of the nokia n series*) | 04:18 |
smackpotato | it's not a 2420? | 04:18 |
pupnik_ | anyway with the pandora coming out, i think the market will heat up... http://openpandora.ca | 04:18 |
lcuk_2 | 2420 contains the powervr rendering unit | 04:18 |
lcuk_2 | which is what i have | 04:18 |
lcuk_2 | *pet peeve...* | 04:19 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: one ugly brick, but featurewise looks good... | 04:19 |

lcuk_2 | arghhhhh - pandora still doesnt have single press tab key or pipe ;) | 04:21 |
lcuk_2 | specs are amazing tho.. | 04:21 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: the pages about it are extremely vague and look unfinished. Is there a release date ? | 04:21 |
jott | lcuk_2: write a mail before its too late ;) | 04:21 |

spirytusick | lcuk_2: and it does not have 'any' key too... | 04:22 |
lcuk_2 | :P | 04:22 |
pupnik_ | http://youtube.com/watch?v=TFhhctm9LqY there's one of the analog controllers jott | 04:23 |
lcuk_2 | i think the big buttons cater for press me now | 04:23 |
jott | i wonder if they really plan to put all the extension ports on the front ;) | 04:23 |
lcuk_2 | why "power" and "dc-in"? | 04:24 |
pupnik_ | that's being debated. they will probably put the dual-sd slots in front and connectors in the rear now | 04:24 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: and a toaster on the side ? :) | 04:24 |
spirytusick | too good to be true... | 04:25 |
spirytusick | but if it happens I will gladly swap... | 04:25 |
lcuk_2 | its fantasy, but the analog looks like | 04:25 |
lcuk_2 | i wonder if you could hack it onto 810 | 04:26 |
pupnik_ | they're at the prototyping stage now | 04:26 |
pupnik_ | have dev boards already | 04:26 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: so we looking at at least 5-7 months minimum | 04:26 |
pupnik_ | i'm betting on may | 04:27 |
spirytusick | guys been wondering about it for some time now | 04:27 |
jott | pupnik_: who is funding this? | 04:27 |
spirytusick | is there possible to write a library that will ease up porting the stuff from gp2x community ? | 04:28 |
spirytusick | what are the main obstacles there ?\ | 04:28 |
lcuk_2 | touchscreen on a laptop like unsupported screen doesnt work too well, people expect a slate or something. the 810 has a problem when lay flat and using touch - it rocks backwards when you press top of screen | 04:29 |
pupnik_ | worked ok on my psion 5mx | 04:29 |
jott | spirytusick: i suppose nobody really tried it hard enough yet.. | 04:30 |
lcuk_2 | fair enough, its just annoying when it moves cos cursor slips | 04:30 |
pupnik_ | jott i don't know much more, and some of what i know is NDA | 04:30 |
spirytusick | jott: thanks, pitty I am not a coder... | 04:30 |
pupnik_ | jott, want to work on drpocketsnes next? | 04:31 |
shackan | pupnik_: WOW, that's awesome | 04:31 |
*** roue has quit IRC | 04:31 | |
jott | pupnik_: write a gp2x emulator?! ;) | 04:31 |
jott | or gp2x compatible chroot ;) | 04:32 |
pupnik_ | jott: well i started mashing drpocketsnes core into snes9x frontend | 04:32 |
shackan | pupnik_: is it meant for gaming (like the gp2x) or browsing (like the NITs) ? I see a lot of estate wasted on game controls.. :( | 04:33 |
jott | oh gp2x is kernel 2.4? yieks.. | 04:33 |
pupnik_ | and like 80 hours later i have http://pupnik.de/DrPocketSnes_Nokia_The_Horror.tgz | 04:33 |

johnx | shackan, pupnik cares about games :P | 04:36 |
pupnik_ | so true | 04:36 |
shackan | pupnik_: that analog controller, doesn't look very durable :D | 04:37 |

*** bkruse has joined #maemo | 04:37 | |
pupnik_ | it's not on the short list of things to do spirytusick | 04:38 |
pupnik_ | give it a try on the PC first | 04:38 |
spirytusick | well most action games do not play well on the tablets, but the turn based strategies, and I supporse the rts should play quite well, rpg also should work out nicely | 04:38 |
johnx | tetris is ok | 04:38 |
spirytusick | pupnik_: I will, although it's a little beside the point as I could probably run the games natively | 04:38 |
jott | openttd runs nice too ;) | 04:39 |
johnx | if I could get the bindings better for ltris I'd be happy with it | 04:39 |
spirytusick | jott: it runs superb, true true true... | 04:39 |

jott | aye.. thanks | 04:47 |
jott | have you done benchmarks with -O2 vs your options? | 04:48 |
jott | http://syslog.movial.fi/archives/46-N800-VFP-or-not-to-VFP.html (considering those thoughts) | 04:48 |
pupnik_ | well... i haven't found much maths | 04:50 |
pupnik_ | there is some dodgy floating-poitn in the sample-rate conversion | 04:50 |
pupnik_ | and the speaker emulation is messed up - at the buffer boundaries there are clicks | 04:50 |
pupnik_ | i think that doom -timedemo can yield a good benchmark, if you make the screen smaller than default | 04:51 |
*** vbatts has joined #maemo | 04:51 | |
pupnik_ | also using mips.com and norton si and pc 'checkit' for core/memory tests, but i don't know how good those are | 04:52 |
jott | yeah synthetic but should give some coarse approximation | 04:52 |
pupnik_ | dosbox guys suggest setting the cpu cycles to 'max' and then printf-ing/cout-ing the cycles chosen | 04:52 |

Savago | is there a Python guy out there? | 08:15 |
Savago | I have 1 question about BlueZ. | 08:15 |
Savago | More specifically, on bluetooth.lookup_name. | 08:16 |
Savago | I got 1 piece of code that works fine in my notebook, but fails when running in N810. | 08:17 |
zoran | u have all modules added? | 08:17 |
Savago | zoran, could you explain what you mean by 'modules'? I don't get it. | 08:19 |
zoran | some added libs to have your ported script work | 08:20 |
*** targaryen has joined #maemo | 08:20 | |
Savago | zoran, I only use 'bluetooth' library. | 08:21 |
*** jku has joined #maemo | 08:21 | |
zoran | probably maemo port is not so extensive as on your desktop | 08:21 |
Savago | Can I post the code here? Its only 7 LOCs. | 08:21 |
zoran | I had to add some libs for getmail and some other simple scripts | 08:21 |
zoran | have some error message? | 08:21 |
Savago | Nopes. | 08:22 |
Savago | lookup_name returns None. | 08:22 |
*** pupnik has quit IRC | 08:22 | |
Savago | Where I was expecting to return the 'human readable' device name. | 08:22 |
zoran | so, no python problem? | 08:22 |
zoran | look_up means $HOST ? | 08:23 |
Savago | Maybe I forgot something, but it seem rather strange that all calls to lookup_name return None. | 08:23 |
Savago | zoran, yep. | 08:23 |
zoran | I found it strangely done on my 770 | 08:23 |
*** eton has joined #maemo | 08:23 | |
zoran | and I didn't make succes changing some variables | 08:24 |
Savago | Say you have a computer (named 'foobie') that has a BT address (00:xx:xx:xx:xx), the lookup_name returns 'foobie' when you supply the address. | 08:24 |
zoran | probably busybox problem | 08:24 |
Savago | This is the code: | 08:24 |
Savago | <flood> | 08:24 |
Savago | import bluetooth | 08:25 |
Savago | devices = bluetooth.find_service(name = 'Audio Source') | 08:25 |
Savago | def print_name(mac): | 08:25 |
Savago | for i in range(10): | 08:25 |
Savago | name = bluetooth.lookup_name(mac) | 08:25 |
Savago | print u'i = ' + str(i) + ' res = ' + str(name) | 08:25 |
Savago | print_name(devices[0]['host']) | 08:25 |
Savago | </flood> | 08:25 |
Savago | If you have a Linux box near (say, Ubuntu) and run this code, it was supposed to print your box name. | 08:25 |
zoran | found function of the same name on maemo? | 08:26 |
Savago | zoran, yeps. | 08:26 |
zoran | maybe it should be tweaked to match maemo $HOST | 08:26 |
Savago | zoran, what do you mean by tweaked? | 08:27 |
zoran | I also got blank on that call | 08:27 |
Savago | Do you mean that maemo python binding for bluez is incomplete? | 08:27 |
zoran | maybe | 08:27 |
*** cmarcelo has quit IRC | 08:27 | |
zoran | what if you try it with bash? | 08:27 |
Savago | This is what I got running it in my notebook: | 08:28 |
zoran | I meanth on maemo | 08:28 |
Savago | python t.py | 08:28 |
Savago | i = 0 res = zv64-0 | 08:28 |
zoran | there was a port of bash, called bash-m | 08:29 |
Savago | I'm running it over ssh. | 08:29 |
zoran | after simple "bash" it should read variables | 08:29 |
zoran | Savago, you use ash over ssh | 08:29 |
zoran | built in shell for busybox | 08:30 |
Savago | Do you mean that the code will not run correctly If I try to execute it logged in my N810 using ssh? | 08:30 |
zoran | Savago, the very shell could be the problem | 08:31 |
zoran | on maemo | 08:31 |
Savago | this doesn't make sense. | 08:31 |
zoran | culd you try to install bash and try out? | 08:31 |
zoran | or tcsh if possible | 08:31 |
Savago | yeah, why not... At this late night, what can I miss? :-) | 08:32 |
zoran | Savago, as I see, the device was not intended for you and me and all those folks on the channel, but for multimedia kids | 08:32 |
zoran | so, don't be surprised | 08:33 |
johnx | zoran, maybe I'm missing something, but what does $HOST have to do with the bluetooth device name? | 08:33 |
zoran | u mean mac address? | 08:34 |
johnx | er...no | 08:34 |
zoran | dunno how the variable is set | 08:34 |
johnx | the name that you set in the bluetooth control panel applet | 08:34 |
*** Raistl|n has quit IRC | 08:34 | |
Savago | could anyone else try to run the code in your device? Maybe its a caveat in my Python install. | 08:35 |
johnx | sure, in a sec | 08:35 |
Savago | johnx, just make sure that you have 1 linux box with bluetooth plugged in. | 08:35 |
johnx | ok | 08:36 |
Savago | and also, make it visible to other devices. | 08:36 |
truent | Savago, this is the 810? | 08:36 |
Savago | truent, yep. I'm trying to run it in N810. | 08:36 |
truent | dunno of any bluetooth library like that.. i've used 'bluez' library | 08:36 |
truent | you can get remote devices, set device name, make discoverable/connectable etc.. by way of dbus | 08:37 |
truent | and python (though i use ruby) has a good dbus implementation | 08:37 |
Savago | truent, to make use of sockets to exchange data between BT devices, you need to use BlueZ. | 08:38 |
truent | ahh you mean bluetooth? | 08:38 |
truent | library | 08:38 |
truent | havent done that | 08:39 |
truent | whatcha tryin to do? not that i can be of any help at this point, im just curious ;) | 08:39 |

johnx | Savago, it disconnects my bluetooth headphones then says: list index out of range | 08:41 |

Savago | johnx, are you using a bluetooth headphones? | 08:41 |
johnx | yes | 08:41 |
johnx | maybe I copied it wrong | 08:42 |
Savago | It was supposed to run when both devices (computer + n810) are not using headphones. | 08:42 |
johnx | http://pastebin.ca/874361 | 08:42 |
Savago | I forgot to tell you, sorry. | 08:42 |
johnx | Savago, well I tested it on my ubuntu box actually | 08:42 |
johnx | my tablet isn't booted into ITOS right now | 08:42 |
Savago | ah, ok. | 08:43 |
Savago | But this code was supposed to run in the device. | 08:43 |
Savago | For my test in my Ubuntu box, I used another bluetooth service running in another box. | 08:43 |
*** eton_ has quit IRC | 08:44 | |

Savago | thanks a lot, dude! | 08:45 |
johnx | sure | 08:45 |
johnx | can I have a *little* clue about what your trying to do overall or is it a secret? | 08:45 |
Savago | johnx, no secret at all. | 08:46 |
Savago | I wish to being able to list the nearby BT devices using the 'human readable' name. | 08:46 |
Savago | Instead of using 'xx:xx:xx:xx' addresses to represent each external device. | 08:46 |
Savago | And the soft I'm trying to port has nothing to do with sound at all (I just choose this BT service because is available in any Ubuntu box). | 08:49 |
johnx | ah | 08:50 |
johnx | got my hopes up :P | 08:50 |
johnx | anyways, I ran it on my tablet | 08:50 |
*** eton_ has joined #maemo | 08:50 | |
johnx | I could put the results on pastebin but they're all: i = 0 res = None | 08:50 |
johnx | only thing that changes is i = 0-9 | 08:50 |
Savago | hum... so it seems that it fails on your device too. | 08:51 |
johnx | yup. that's with a fresh install of python2.5-runtime | 08:52 |
Savago | Are you are of any python app that makes uses of BT and run in the maemo device? | 08:52 |
Savago | Maybe I can have a glimpse in the source code and have a clue of what I'm missing. | 08:53 |
johnx | I really can't think of anything off the top of my head | 08:54 |

*** Sho_ has joined #maemo | 11:03 | |
Cptnodegard | bad new on that front... its not a real 5 pin. it has 5 connected wires, but the 5th pin is copnnected to the metal housing of the mini usb b cable, not the 5th pin of the mini b connector! | 11:05 |
Cptnodegard | i was pissed as hell | 11:05 |
Cptnodegard | i ohmed the thing to find out what wires went where and it made no freaking sense, so opened the mini b connector and realized why :/ | 11:06 |
johnx | lame | 11:06 |
Cptnodegard | my initial plan was to use it to make a how to. gonna try some more cables from that place to see if i can find one that does work. the guide is pointless if the people reading it arent able to get the exact same cable, so has to be from DX which ships worldwide | 11:07 |
johnx | hmm...it might be hard to find | 11:08 |
johnx | if you plug a mini-b wired like a mini-a into a non-otg device, I wonder if it would end up fried | 11:09 |

Cptnodegard | i have a link to a cable that i myself used, one that is extremely easy to work with, but its expensive | 11:12 |
johnx | ah | 11:12 |
johnx | the problem is the world wide shipping | 11:12 |

michele | they don't seem to be gtk stock icons | 13:15 |
michele | (and this sucks, if I may) | 13:15 |
johnx | are you trying to reference them by file name? or do something more clever/automatic? | 13:16 |
michele | well, I'd like to do it as nicely as possible | 13:16 |
michele | but just the file name would be a start | 13:17 |
johnx | so which program shows these files that you're interested in? | 13:17 |
michele | the file manager, the pdf reader, notes | 13:17 |
K-Fox | what is the a rapid pdf reader ? | 13:18 |

michele | that aside, am I the only one that actually likes the N810 pouch colors? :) | 13:21 |
crashanddie | define pouch colors | 13:21 |
johnx | well here I was going to make a nice one-liner script with lsof and grep to show which icons are in use...but it pulls them from icon-theme.cache | 13:22 |
melmoth | awfull grey with worst blue inside | 13:22 |
lcuk | michele, i would like the colors, but my missus lost the pouch on the first day she borrowed it | 13:22 |
zuh | michele: I wouldn't say that in public if I were you :P | 13:22 |
K-Fox | Fedora 8 now available for Nokia tablets! | 13:22 |
K-Fox | this is true? | 13:22 |
lcuk | i cant take 810 anywhere :( | 13:22 |
crashanddie | wow | 13:22 |
michele | johnx: so I'd say they actually are registered as stock icons, just with different names than gtk | 13:22 |
johnx | K-Fox, link? | 13:23 |
johnx | or do you just mean that there is a Fedora port to the ARM architecture? | 13:24 |

crashanddie | n0ob_, why would you need a how-to ? | 13:25 |
lcuk | noob i have had probs using it | 13:25 |
crashanddie | it's fairly self explanatory | 13:25 |
johnx | n0ob_, lots of howtos on maemo.org and a readme on the same site you got the vmware maemo sdk from | 13:25 |
lcuk | readme glosses over lots of things and for a none linux ninja its heeavy going | 13:25 |
michele | zuh: I don't really see the problem with the colors... better than always the same dull black or dark gray | 13:26 |

johnx | michele, heh. and it turns out I was way behind someone else's work too | 13:35 |
michele | johnx: really? | 13:35 |
lcuk | noob, you can get coding quickly with python. dont lose heart | 13:35 |
targaryen | michele, did you ever find out what was causing those pkg-config errors compiling evince? I'm getting the same ones | 13:35 |
lcuk | its like methadone compared to full code, but you can get resultts quickly | 13:35 |
johnx | n0ob_, you might want to start out programming on something more straightforward | 13:35 |
michele | n0ob_: have you read the tutorial? http://maemo.org/development/documentation/tutorials/maemo_4-0_tutorial.html | 13:36 |
michele | n0ob_: that will give you some context, at least | 13:36 |

johnx | |tbb|, no idea | 13:37 |
michele | targaryen: which errors? I found that most things are ok if you dpkg-buildpakage instead of using make | 13:37 |
johnx | I don't know much about dbus...but I'll probably have to learn it soon | 13:37 |
lcuk | john/michele, i found the same problems, coding inside a foreign vmwar box, then within anotther magic scratchbox and it just gets overwhelming | 13:37 |
michele | targaryen: you need the right options to configure | 13:37 |

michele | johnx: who was ahead of you then? | 13:38 |
johnx | michele, yeah. The guys packaging the maemo stuff for debian have more things working, but its easy enough to just go with there stuff and add anything I can fix | 13:38 |

johnx | Luria, you're right. Gimp isn't a replacement for photoshop in high-end shops yet. It is a replacement for photoshop on a lot of end users desks who just want to touch something up and print it on their ink jet | 13:48 |
lcuk | has anyone reported it | 13:48 |
Luria | gimp is fine for photo -> web, tho. | 13:49 |

johnx | Linux also solves a couple vendor lock-in issues rather nicely | 13:51 |
johnx | which is where people will get really interested I think | 13:51 |
lcuk | yes, with MS trying to shift away from their almost standard format its gonna get good | 13:52 |
johnx | ooxml is a mine field | 13:52 |
johnx | thankfully people are actually realizing it | 13:52 |
lcuk | i think MS are shooting themselves in the foot changing everything (not for the better) people are in a mood for retraining, why put the extra money into MS at that point if there are OS alternatives which for the same training give complete openness | 13:53 |

johnx | but they're stuck between a rock and a hard place | 13:53 |
lcuk | this nokia device has been good for me (no matter how difficult it has been to setup dev wise so far) because it means i can show them linux and run around all the stuff | 13:54 |

darkip | quick question, is there any easy way to download all the UK maps for maemo mapper? | 14:23 |
crashanddie | Luria, lucky guy | 14:24 |
Luria | very | 14:24 |
lcuk | dark, i think there is a program to grab them all, but usually you get a smaller segment, it will take a long time and take a large amount of space to get such a large range | 14:24 |
lcuk | i think you can get them for specific routes simpler (from what i read in here) | 14:24 |
Luria | still, he took one shot to the shoulder, it was a two pronged ambush | 14:24 |
Luria | but he survived | 14:25 |
lcuk | he should have forked the process | 14:25 |
crashanddie | I'd rather take one in the shoulder than in the leg, if you ask me | 14:25 |
lcuk | lcd on one side keyboard on the other | 14:25 |
darkip | ah ok | 14:25 |
darkip | and also, it's not possible to plan a route without an internet connection is it? | 14:26 |
Luria | yeah, me too. no femural artery in the shoulder. | 14:26 |
crashanddie | I can live with only one arm, I doubt I'd be as happy with only one leg | 14:26 |
lcuk | im not sure dark, have you had a look on internettablettalk forum - they have discussions about mapping etc all the time | 14:26 |
lcuk | i couldnt live without my ARM now | 14:26 |
johnx | darkip, yes, maemo mapper needs to be able to access the internet to do routing | 14:27 |
*** Crfrodf has quit IRC | 14:27 | |
Luria | the other thing about it is, it was designed to go in dashboard mounts, so the lcd goes all the way back, which can be more useful than you think | 14:27 |
lcuk | have you read about the soldier who lost both legs below the knee and now has a pair of bluetooth feet which communicate and help to keep him upright | 14:27 |
darkip | are there any free alternatives which do? | 14:28 |
Luria | yeah, we all read /. | 14:28 |
crashanddie | darkip, maemo mapper uses web servers in order to create routes, hence the required internet connectivity | 14:28 |
crashanddie | darkip, I don't think there are any free alternatives that do a good job , honnestly | 14:29 |
darkip | ah, well cheers anyway :) | 14:29 |

darkip | well, i've tried the trial... | 14:32 |

darkip | i was working on reverse engineering the registration process but didn't get far | 14:33 |

darkip | it was ok, i was using the built in GPS in my n810 | 14:33 |
darkip | which takes FOREVER to aquire a signal | 14:33 |
darkip | but on more positive notes, apparently you can compile navit for n800 - http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Navit_on_n770/n800 | 14:33 |
lcuk | dark, 810 is bad at getting signal for us if we sit it in cradle, if its on girlfriends lap it aquires much quicker | 14:34 |
lcuk | i think orientation helps | 14:34 |
darkip | i only had my grandpa in the car | 14:34 |
johnx | maybe it just likes your girlfriend? | 14:34 |
|tbb| | hats the difference between run-standalone.sh dbus-send or dbus-send alone | 14:34 |
darkip | i was at a disadvantage obviously | 14:34 |
darkip | ;) | 14:34 |
lcuk | lol thinking that | 14:35 |
Luria | oh wow | 14:35 |
darkip | ? | 14:35 |
johnx | better watch out in case it starts making any moves. I mean do you have a slick metal finish or a pull-out keyboard? | 14:35 |
lcuk | try it with a nubile young lady and it will ping instantly | 14:35 |
Luria | ive been looking for something just like that | 14:35 |
lcuk | hey she threatened me yesterday | 14:35 |
Luria | nav for x86 linux | 14:35 |
darkip | yep.. | 14:36 |
darkip | i might have a try and compiling it | 14:36 |
|tbb| | s/hats/whats/ | 14:36 |
infobot | |tbb| meant: whats the difference between run-standalone.sh dbus-send or dbus-send alone | 14:36 |
lcuk | run standalone is intended only for the scratchbox environment i think tbb | 14:37 |
|tbb| | ah k | 14:37 |
lcuk | if you are running on the device itself you dont need it | 14:37 |
lcuk | i know for gtk apps if you dont run standalone it doesnt hildonize it and it looks crap | 14:37 |
lcuk | if you run-standalone then it does the extra i think | 14:38 |
lcuk | but i hate scratchpox with a passion now (i might learn to love it eventually) so try to not run in emulated | 14:38 |
|tbb| | lcuk: have you noticed for what im looking for about two-three hours -> a way to close the network connection failed dialog, do you know how i can send an escape to this modal dialog or how to close it in another case | 14:39 |
*** ch4os_ has joined #maemo | 14:39 | |
lcuk | tbb, i hope you cannot interupt the network dialogs - it should be under the entire control of the human user. not even root should be able to manage them. but thats personal opinion and i just dont know | 14:40 |
lcuk | i have a bugbear at the moment that i think 810 is re-starting a network connection without permission from me, so anything trying to circumvent the network dialogs is bad | 14:41 |
lcuk | does this dialog only come up if the user has actually selected a network | 14:41 |
crashanddie | I've had my battery drained a few times because some app tried to access the interwebs, and it kept searching for wifi for a few hours in my jacket | 14:42 |
|tbb| | lcuk: likely yes | 14:42 |
lcuk | crash, exactly - i have mine set to @always ask@ | 14:42 |
lcuk | tbb, if thats the case and the network fails just let the user handle it | 14:43 |
crashanddie | yeah, I guess I should set it to that too | 14:43 |
Luria | ok, bed time | 14:43 |
Luria | bye all | 14:43 |
|tbb| | oh sorry, wrong understand | 14:43 |
lcuk | i let the connection run forever because it doesnt seem to drain the battery too much, but when i disconnect it it should stay disconnected. | 14:43 |
|tbb| | the connection is started automaticly | 14:43 |
*** Luria has quit IRC | 14:43 | |
|tbb| | and i want stop it if it fails | 14:43 |
lcuk | the nokia tablet cannot be sure how much it costs me to use network, so it should NEVER connect automatically (for me at least) | 14:43 |
|tbb| | or try again | 14:43 |
lcuk | how do you mean automatically tbb? | 14:44 |
johnx | lcuk, I forgot if I asked this...were you in offline mode? | 14:44 |
|tbb| | dbus-send | 14:44 |
lcuk | surely its down to user preferences whether automatic is allowed | 14:44 |
lcuk | no john, but im set to always ask | 14:44 |
lcuk | tbb, you mean you say @please connect to a network@ | 14:44 |
lcuk | damn these @@@ quote keys | 14:45 |
crashanddie | I didn't use the phone connection yet, should try to see if it's worth anything... | 14:45 |
crashanddie | You guys know it's possible to have IP over BT right ? | 14:45 |
lcuk | yes john, but its slower and i dont like the extra BT crap[ running on my windows box | 14:45 |
crashanddie | I know it's feasible with a cellphone, so I'm pretty sure it's doable with the tablet... I should write something about that though | 14:46 |
lcuk | using wifi is simple as the rest of my system is geared up for it | 14:46 |
|tbb| | yeah | 14:46 |
crashanddie | in other words, computer is connected to an ethernet network, and 810 surfs through BT on the laptop | 14:46 |
lcuk | 810 ---BT---> BTDongle->desktop ----> internet | 14:47 |
lcuk | 810 ---wifi---> router ---->internet | 14:47 |
crashanddie | lcuk, I'm talking if wifi isn't available | 14:48 |
lcuk | 810 ---BT---> BTDongle->desktop ----> router -----> internet | 14:48 |
|tbb| | is it possible to send keystrokes to the maemo desktop | 14:48 |
lcuk | crash, i agree it can work if thats whats available | 14:48 |
crashanddie | also, I might get myself an ethernet to usb adapter and try to get that to work with the 810 | 14:48 |
crashanddie | would be nice though | 14:48 |
johnx | |tbb|, look for "fake keystroke x11" | 14:49 |
lcuk | wifi USB dongle works great - thats what i use here, the router is work connection. | 14:49 |
lcuk | set the computer to use ad-hoc mode | 14:49 |
johnx | but something like wmctrl would be better I think | 14:49 |
lcuk | its nice and quick :) | 14:49 |
crashanddie | lcuk, agreed | 14:50 |
lcuk | the only one i couldnt get working was my phone connection - its got 3g super data stream or something, but the phone isnt exposing the connection | 14:51 |
johnx | maybe the phone doesn't do BT DUN, but BT PAN instead? | 14:51 |
*** unique311 has joined #maemo | 14:51 | |
lcuk | i dunno its only a cheapy and i pay as go, so its likely just not exposing anything. it doesnt bother me so much, if i neededdd it i would go back to phone shop and get a nokia 3g phone and tell them to make sure it connects before i leave store | 14:52 |
johnx | it's sure nice being in a position to make a vendor *do something* isn't it? :) | 14:53 |

lcuk | nokia to nokia with bluetooth should just work, its the phone peoples jobs to know how to connect their data devices together if thats what they are selling. if they cant do that they cant get a sale out of me | 14:54 |
lcuk | i can help with the specifics of this device but they need to know what settings i need to put in etc | 14:55 |
crashanddie | lcuk, like Johnx said, the n810 uses BT DUN, which is quite old and deprecated, most phones use BT PAN now, there are a few apps that allow phones to simulate BT DUN though | 14:55 |
alterego | Mine works out-of-the-box. | 14:55 |
alterego | Just worked, was expecting something to need to be hacked but it was really easy. | 14:55 |
johnx | my phone does IR, not BT :/ | 14:55 |
crashanddie | btw | 14:56 |
johnx | which is good because otherwise I'd run up a terrifying data bill | 14:56 |
crashanddie | anyone seen the real hustlers video about cell phone hacking? | 14:56 |
lcuk | alterego, it works on my girlfriends nokia as well, but im not gonna rely on her connection | 14:56 |
crashanddie | I swear I thought it was a n770 or n800 he was using to phreak the cell phones | 14:56 |
lcuk | like i said, i bought the phone to make calls not for data - when i need one ill just go and make sure it works | 14:56 |
sxpert | crashanddie, put cell phone in plastic baggie, set to "vibrate" ? | 14:56 |
proteous | my pantech c150 works with bluetooth DUN to my 770 | 14:56 |
crashanddie | sxpert, ? | 14:57 |
crashanddie | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dltjEnrePxc | 14:57 |
sxpert | ah... sorry. "Hustler" for me was erh, something else :-) | 14:58 |
crashanddie | yup, it's a n770 | 14:58 |
crashanddie | 36 seconds in the video, you'll see it | 14:58 |
sxpert | hah... 770 spotted | 14:59 |
lcuk | why doesnt this work? : http://m.youtube.com/details?v=dltjEnrePxc | 14:59 |
lcuk | it finds the video but the codec is not supported | 14:59 |
lcuk | its same video and tries to play in media player | 14:59 |
alterego | I'm making a new soft case for my N810, out of neoprene. | 15:00 |
lcuk | alterego, could you make me one as well, my missus lost mine and keeps threatening to make a furry pink one | 15:00 |
alterego | I'll swap you! | 15:00 |
lcuk | lol | 15:00 |
lcuk | it would be self cleaning i suppose but i lose all coolness | 15:01 |
alterego | Hah | 15:01 |
lcuk | i actually liked the nokia default case but i cant buy one | 15:01 |
alterego | I'm also going to make a Nokia USB charger. | 15:01 |
alterego | I didn't the grey fake leather I thought was very cheap and tacky .. | 15:01 |
lcuk | hack a charger cable and put a usb plug on end | 15:02 |
alterego | The snug fit was great though. | 15:02 |

*** t_s_o has joined #maemo | 15:02 | |
lcuk | yer - the thing i miss most about 810 is my old pda had a cradle | 15:02 |
lcuk | i could quickly just drop it in | 15:02 |
lcuk | mind you, it prefered usb syncing | 15:03 |
alterego | Yeah, not the only quick drops are when it's meandering to the pavement. 8O | 15:03 |
alterego | s/not/now/ | 15:04 |
infobot | alterego meant: Yeah, now the only quick drops are when it's meandering to the pavement. 8O | 15:04 |
* alterego kicks infobot up it's virtual ass. | 15:04 | |
lcuk | Ouch, i dont think this nokia would survive a drop, my old pda was rugged, it took a drop down the stairs the other day - thought it was completely gone but it just fired back up | 15:05 |
jku | lcuk, then again the n800 doesn't look too sturdy either, but it's survived my abuse pretty well... | 15:06 |
lcuk | this 810 was too slippery when i got it, but ive cured that now with a big rubber stickon patch on the back | 15:06 |
jku | of course, no moving parts like n810 | 15:06 |
|tbb| | is there a source available -> osso-connectivity-ui-conndlgs | 15:07 |
lcuk | 800 looks better than 810 for sturdyness | 15:07 |
b0unc3 | guys, there is a 3gp support for ITOS2008 ? | 15:07 |
lcuk | b0unc3, yes, i can play 3pg videos from my phone, but i cant seem to play them from m.youtube.com | 15:08 |
lcuk | its a shame because youtube would be much better from the mobile version | 15:08 |
b0unc3 | lcuk: with mplayer ? | 15:08 |
lcuk | i hope its just a codec issue and can be rectified | 15:08 |
lcuk | dunno, use standard media player | 15:08 |
lcuk | does mplayer take over playback of mime types - it didnt seem to when i installed it before | 15:09 |
lcuk | tapping from file manager still opened in default mediaplayer | 15:09 |
lcuk | i had to use the mplayer interface to run mplayer stuff | 15:09 |
johnx | ah mime-types...we could have been having this conversation in 1993 and it wouldn't be much different :) | 15:10 |

Blafasel | (Or who can I bribe to compile iodine in a current version? Beer anyone? ;) ) | 15:15 |

johnx | shipping included? | 15:15 |
*** spirytusick has joined #maemo | 15:15 | |
lcuk | Blafasel, if you have a scratchbox environment setup recompiling a program is simple, if not you need to get one setup | 15:15 |
Blafasel | lcuk: That's my point: Is that a task for a day or two or more something for 1-2 hours? | 15:16 |
johnx | Blafasel, .deb packages handle updates seemlessly. no need to do anything special. | 15:16 |
johnx | Blafasel, are you on debian/ubuntu or other linux or windows? | 15:16 |
lcuk | blaf, whats your desktop running? are you linux or windows | 15:16 |
Blafasel | johnx: There doesn't seem to exist a .deb for the current iodine version.. ;) | 15:16 |

johnx | and what rep has the package? any special build instructions? | 15:18 |
johnx | I'll give it a shot...but if it doesn't compile up first time I'm not going to do much fidgeting | 15:18 |
* alterego thinks the N810 may be the last device that is part of a "device program". | 15:19 | |
Blafasel | That's awesome, thanks a lot. I'm looking into that vmware image as well. | 15:19 |
alterego | I doubt they'll offer the N810+WiMAX in a program. | 15:19 |
jku | lcuk, I an imagine... scratchbox + debian packaging on top of a new OS is pretty daunting | 15:19 |
jku | "I can", even | 15:19 |

alterego | Yeah | 19:47 |
lcuk | i got one in the end from the only shop in the world guaranteed to stock these things: my dads garage... | 19:47 |
alterego | Fantastic. | 19:47 |
lcuk | does your case hold the device - like the original grips it | 19:48 |
alterego | Yes | 19:48 |

alterego | No slide out like with the N800. | 19:48 |

*** Dregz has joined #maemo | 19:54 | |
GeneralAntilles | That's, like, 72TB, lcuk. :P | 19:55 |

alterego | Yeah, 4G is barely my region .. | 19:55 |
lcuk | i ask because for uk maps its not even 1g | 19:56 |
alterego | In 2-4 years. We'll probably be able to get 1T SD cards. | 19:57 |
alterego | That's going to be somewhat insane. | 19:57 |
alterego | lcuk, You obviously don't live in the same UK I live in. | 19:57 |

*** doc|home has quit IRC | 19:58 | |
alterego | I'm talking about Maemo Mapper, with satellite images. | 19:58 |
lcuk | ahhh well, thats a lot of extra data | 19:58 |
alterego | I might make a different version of this case. That actually has a flap, that exposes the screen and allows the keyboard to slide out. | 20:00 |
alterego | Might do that next weekend. | 20:00 |
lcuk | i think thats gonna be tough to do | 20:01 |
pupnik_ | is there a maemo app that lets me see satellite pics with gps location? | 20:01 |
lcuk | good luck with it thou - if you make it, ill post you a pint of beer if you post me the original v1 case ;) | 20:01 |

pupnik_ | sorry i'm fighting vmware | 20:02 |
* lcuk is as well | 20:02 | |
* lcuk is trying to make anjuta stop being his bitch | 20:02 | |
fysa | I think there's a race going on between ubiquitous connectivity and personal storage capacity. Eventually all digital cameras will have the option to instantly store images online and we will have pocketable devices that can mount networked shares as fast as they could an SD. | 20:03 |
lcuk | SD will just become buffer memory | 20:03 |
GeneralAntilles | Ha | 20:03 |
naba | lcuk: I might be able to help you. | 20:04 |
*** IRSeekBot has joined #maemo | 20:04 | |
spirytusick | fysa: I suppose at that time the distinction between networking and local storage will loose its meaning | 20:04 |
*** ol_schoola has joined #maemo | 20:04 | |
fysa | precisely | 20:05 |
GeneralAntilles | Maybe | 20:05 |
spirytusick | fysa: 2-4 years is a bit optimistic though. I suppose 10-12 will be more like it | 20:05 |
lcuk | hmmm naba. i'll tell you where i am at. i have the maemo vmware image. i have installed anjuta, it looks great and reminds me of days gone by :) .. i see the anjuta plugin but i cant get it installed. http://anjuta-maemo.garage.maemo.org/ | 20:05 |
GeneralAntilles | But data's just gonna get bigger, too. | 20:05 |
fysa | on the longest timeline, networked storage has one major thing going against it -- latency. | 20:06 |
fysa | the speed of light. | 20:06 |
pupnik_ | am I silly for wanting to get bridged networking going in the vmware appliance? what are you using? | 20:06 |
lcuk | i think its because the plugin expects anjuta 2.3, but from the install list on vmware only 2.2.0 is available | 20:06 |
alterego | The government will keep all our storage, using our RFID identity cards we can access them through any device, | 20:06 |
naba | lcuk: Make sure anjuta version you are installing is >= 2.3.0, because the maemo plugin requires that. | 20:06 |
GeneralAntilles | 5-years assuming doubling every year. | 20:06 |
fysa | yes, data is going to get bigger. But if the network gets faster, data can get bigger and simultaneously less ubiquitous. | 20:06 |
alterego | Oh, and they don't need permission to look through our files or even raid our homes for data seizure. | 20:06 |
spirytusick | alterego: thank you, I would pass on that | 20:07 |
GeneralAntilles | and that doesn't provide for big tech jumps which occur every so often. | 20:07 |
naba | lcuk: Unfortunately, the plugin does not complain if you have lower version (I mentioned it to the author). | 20:07 |
fysa | i.e., if I had gigabit DSL/cablemodem.. | 20:07 |
lcuk | naba, will grab it from their site directly then, brb | 20:07 |
fysa | I would open my RAID server up to friends. | 20:07 |
GeneralAntilles | alterego, nah, it's all backed up to the <isn't government organization here> automatically. | 20:07 |
fysa | and they could access it just as quickly as I could. | 20:07 |
spirytusick | GeneralAntilles: Bit tech jumps will most likely be stalled by the big telco companies... | 20:07 |
GeneralAntilles | s/isn't/insert/ | 20:07 |
infobot | GeneralAntilles meant: alterego, nah, it's all backed up to the <insert government organization here> automatically. | 20:07 |
alterego | Heh | 20:08 |
fysa | netboot-over-internet. | 20:08 |
fysa | Point your 'BIOS' to ubuntu.org and you're in. | 20:09 |
GeneralAntilles | No thanks. | 20:09 |
fysa | $HOME mounted from Google Drive | 20:09 |
spirytusick | fysa: all the mallware will have a single infection point | 20:10 |
alterego | When you think of those classic computer users, that all they do is browse the web and email. Well, that's already all on a server somewhere anyhow .. | 20:10 |
fysa | that is a good thing. | 20:10 |
alterego | What do they need personal storage for? | 20:10 |
fysa | I would prefer to have Canonical maintain my 'personal' Ubuntu installation. | 20:10 |
fysa | and then I get to install 'packages' into $HOME | 20:10 |
fysa | then I can be at any computer, anymore, and access my workplace desktop. | 20:11 |
fysa | er, anywhere. | 20:11 |
spirytusick | fysa: looks beautifuly, let's wait to see how much the bandwidth prices will fall down | 20:12 |
fysa | hardware manufacturers sell 'form factors' of open-ended designs that you turn into appliances by pointing them at a web site. | 20:12 |
alterego | I might make a new home on an 8G mini SD when they eventually appear. | 20:12 |
fysa | yes, bandwidth is the key. :) | 20:13 |
Jaffa | And ubiquity | 20:13 |
spirytusick | fysa: bandwidth and latency | 20:13 |
alterego | I still think capacity is important. | 20:13 |
fysa | I threw together a quick nzbfs ("usenet" filesystem) | 20:13 |
Jaffa | Don't want to not be able to boot my device in the Channel Tunnel | 20:13 |
alterego | I'm not _always_ connected right now. | 20:13 |
alterego | Maybe in the future if that becomes more plausible .. | 20:14 |
fysa | using FUSE.. | 20:14 |
Jaffa | Indeed. Which is why online PIMs suck. | 20:14 |
Jaffa | They're also crap for alarms | 20:14 |
fysa | I could mount every binary newsgroup and stream anything I wanted. | 20:14 |
*** pcfe has quit IRC | 20:14 | |
fysa | There was no longer a need to 'download' -- except if your connection is lower than the bitrate+overhead | 20:14 |
lcuk | naba, i need to download the unstable .deb version 2.3 rather than add/remove | 20:15 |
lcuk | ive just tried updating my sources and its not changed whats available | 20:16 |
fysa | anyway. exciting stuff. :) | 20:16 |
naba | lcuk: I am not sure what you meant, but yes, 2.3.x is not available widely. You can get the deb packages from http://anjuta.org/downloads | 20:17 |
naba | lcuk: for gusty, that is. I suppose you are installing ubuntu. | 20:18 |
lcuk | yes, ive just got the debs directly. i tried adding the repo they list thinking it would have the later version than the official repo. its ok, ive started getting direct | 20:18 |

killfill | hm.. mplayer works fine... | 22:42 |
reinard | flv's are something like 300-500*200-400... streaming tv-series mostly | 22:43 |
killfill | felipec: how did you add the stream?.. menu->clip->the second menu? | 22:43 |
felipec | killfill: I had to add it to my favorite internet radios | 22:43 |
reinard | is there some setting to prevent mplayer to scale the file to fullscreen. so it would play it in 1:1 or 2:1 | 22:44 |
killfill | weired.. it doesnt work here.. :S | 22:45 |
killfill | felipec: you added the stream in the second menu?.. you just entered http://....:800/...ogg? | 22:45 |
fysa | are H264 flvs common-place yet? | 22:46 |
fysa | if so, that could be an issue. I dont | 22:46 |
fysa | I don't think h264 decoding is very optimized for our devices yet in mplayer core. | 22:46 |
fysa | (very unoptimized) | 22:46 |
fysa | BTW - Yabause, the Sega Saturn emulator, compiles cleanly. ;) | 22:46 |
*** jackster has joined #maemo | 22:47 | |
reinard | that might be it... still, is there that no fullscreen option? | 22:47 |
fysa | the fullscreen button on top works for me | 22:47 |
reinard | hmm, that just crashes my device | 22:48 |
fysa | you likely need a better mplayer then ;) | 22:48 |
killfill | felipec: in here, it says with "Processing buffer" | 22:48 |
killfill | stays | 22:48 |
killfill | doesnt start playing | 22:48 |
felipec | killfill: it takes a long while here, and doesn't play too well | 22:48 |
felipec | but it does | 22:49 |
reinard | my device is very unstable in everything though.. opera crashes every 2min (hangs and boots the device) | 22:49 |
reinard | this happens in every it os i have tried | 22:49 |
killfill | oh.. there it is.. i guess the buffer is hudge.. :P | 22:49 |
killfill | :D | 22:50 |
* pupnik relegates another evening to dosbox | 22:50 | |
fysa | Have you tried Yabause yet, pupnik? | 22:50 |
killfill | hm.. i hear strange things in the stream.. i thought it was my PC player.. seems to be the server.. | 22:50 |
fysa | it will certainly be slow ;) | 22:50 |
pupnik | haha no :) | 22:50 |
fysa | compiling everything I can to play with later. | 22:50 |

EruditeHermit | hi, where can I find a list of the default packages for OS2008 | 23:29 |
EruditeHermit | also is there a repository with these packages? | 23:29 |
hendry | EruditeHermit: i think http://www.gronmayer.com/it is what you need | 23:30 |
EruditeHermit | hendry: yes I have those things installed | 23:30 |
EruditeHermit | err those repositories | 23:30 |
EruditeHermit | my problem is that I tried to install rtcom beta | 23:30 |
EruditeHermit | but I realised that I didn't want to use beta stuff | 23:31 |
EruditeHermit | so I tried removing the beta installer | 23:31 |
EruditeHermit | but it left an item in my menu | 23:31 |
EruditeHermit | and I am not sure if it left behind some packages that I don't need | 23:31 |
hendry | debian packages are usually pretty good with removing things like menu items | 23:32 |
hendry | can't really help you i'm afraid | 23:32 |

*** ch4os_ has quit IRC | 23:33 | |
hendry | umm, i think it's all the packages in the repo with "Essential" or "Important" | 23:33 |
hendry | a carefully craft apt-cache search or something will give you a list | 23:33 |
