*** bkruse has joined #maemo01:56
unique311restart, take 2 aspirins and call me in the morning.01:56
Faye_pIt happened *after* a restart, and it doesn't fix it if I restart again01:56
unique311hmmm01:57
Faye_pBound to be sth i've installed01:57
unique311what did you do prior to loosing all this, besides a restart.01:57
unique311sth?01:57
Faye_pShort for somethiing01:57
unique311try uninstalling the sth01:58
Faye_pYou're a genius01:58
*** Sho_ has quit IRC01:58

Faye_pDon't  tthink I can unninstall the last two01:59
unique311yes02:00
unique311i uninstalled the map before02:01
unique311rtcomm beta, not sure.02:01
unique311video center, definitely02:01
unique311beta might be your problem.02:01
Faye_pSince they've replaced their  os counterparts02:01
unique311map comes installed with os200802:01
unique311so that might not be the cause.02:01
Faye_pYes iit does, and it's been buggiing me, sitting in updates all the time02:02
unique311rtcomm BETA might.02:02
Faye_pSomeone ellse has same u/g no prob.02:02

unique311nobody responded to my comment on that day02:33
Faye_pHeh02:33
lcuk_2unique311, sure they did, generalant answered you and then you got your scrollbart back:  ok, so my scroll bar is back..02:33
lcuk_2took about 9 minutes02:33
unique311cool02:34
lcuk_2you just waited02:34
unique311so the search should be done for generalant02:34
lcuk_2faye, try what unique said originally and reboot device again, since you did installs and uninstalls and crap things might have been occuring post boot02:34
unique311i was going up instead of down.02:34
*** behdad has quit IRC02:35
Faye_pTrying02:35
unique311Faye_p, switch your theme02:35
*** Faye_p has quit IRC02:35
unique311reboot and switch it back.02:35
lcuk_2lol i think you can tell her that when she comes back02:35
lcuk_2her problem does appear to be global theme related02:36
unique311so which program you think is the culprit02:36
unique311video center, The RTcomm BETA02:36
unique311or the third which i forgot02:37
unique311maps02:37
lcuk_2hows it goin over there mr unique?  did you get a look at the pixel doubling earlier?    i dunno, but ive heard lots of bad things about rtcomm02:37
unique311i suck at it02:37
unique311can't seem to get it workign with the emu i'm working on02:37
pupnik_what's it doing unique31102:37
unique311nothing really02:37
unique311it compiles02:37
pupnik_no doubling at all?02:37
lcuk_2even a developer who sucks is a devoloper :P02:37
unique311none02:37
*** Raistl|n has joined #Maemo02:38
unique311but thats the thing, i'm not a developer02:38
unique311lol02:38
pupnik_no warnings at link-time?02:38
unique311none02:38
*** Faye_p has joined #maemo02:38
lcuk_2ok even someone who pretends they are a sucky developer ....02:38
lcuk_2hey faye, you back (rtcomm didnt go that badly then...)02:38
Faye_pReboot no go02:38
Faye_pNo fix rather02:39
unique311change themes02:39
lcuk_2ok, unique said try changing the theme02:39
pupnik_did the doubling work with the aliens demo program?02:39
unique311reboot02:39
unique311GeneralAntillesSwitch your theme06:1402:39
unique311GeneralAntillesreboot06:1402:39
unique311GeneralAntillesswitch back02:39
lcuk_2since your problem appears to be all parts of the theme, something might have screwed up02:39
Faye_pHenrik, glasser & plankton no fix02:39
unique311that was the fix for my browser issues02:39
Faye_pAhhh02:39
Faye_pWill try again02:39
Faye_pBrb02:40
*** tekonivel has joined #maemo02:40
unique311pupnik_, yes02:40
*** megabyte405 has joined #maemo02:40
pupnik_unique311: ok if the emu is using sdl page_flip, that will break it02:41
unique311let me check02:41
pupnik_and there are a few other things will break the doubling.02:41
*** Faye_p has quit IRC02:41
unique311the SDL coding in it is different from what i'm seeing in aliens02:42
pupnik_i wrote the music in 1993 btw :P02:43

*** [pablo]_ has joined #maemo02:47
lcuk_2faye, can you get a screenshot of where its going wrong02:48
unique311Fayep, apt-get dist-upgrade02:48
FayepReally?02:48
pupnik_#02:48
pupnik_        SDL_Flip(screen);02:48
pupnik_that's killing it02:48
unique311Fayep, hey, if reflash is your only option, you cannot go wrong.02:48
FayepLolol02:48
pupnik_wow it's using a straight memcpy to draw02:49
*** Crfrodf has quit IRC02:49
unique311is that good or bad?02:49
unique311should i just remove that line, and see if it will work.02:50
jottpupnik_: i think, i have a working Fn key under SDL now.02:50
*** _k-s_ has quit IRC02:50
*** netx has joined #maemo02:50
jottnot sure about regressions yet02:50
*** _k-s_ has joined #maemo02:50
pupnik_woo02:50
FayepUnique; some packages can't be authed02:51
unique311or call the pixel doubling after  sdl_flip(screen) is called02:51
jottpupnik_: http://sse2.net/libSDL-1.2.so.0.7.102:51
pupnik_nah i think you're going to need to rewrite osd_gfx_put_image_normal(void)02:51
jottit's quite simple hack.. maybe this can be beautified.. hold on i'll prepare a patch02:52
jottdosbox additionaly needs the "usescancodes=false" and some tweaking of the mapper.txt02:53
jottbut this is straight forward02:53
unique311Fayep, SOL02:53
unique311you can alway use the GOOGLE before you flash.02:53
jottbut 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=false02:53
pupnik_did shifted keys work also jott?02:54
jottyes02:54
jottdosbox seems to work quite nice here now ;)02:54
FayepIf I don't coome bback....02:55
jotti suppose other sdl apps should work too.. but still i'm not sure about possible regressions..02:55
*** Fayep has left #maemo02:55
pupnik_i can help test.02:56
*** tekonivel has left #maemo02:57
*** bkruse has joined #maemo02:57
jotthttp://sse2.net/sdl_fn_key_hack.diff02:57
jottthat's the patch to the maemo sdl version02:57
jottit checks if Fn is pressed and then uses the right keysym lookup table index02:58
pupnik_wow nice job02:58
*** buck68 has joined #maemo02:59
jottit was educational as i learned more about xlib and it's event handling ;)02:59
jottanyway.. you can check the binary if you like and test it for regressions..02:59
*** buck68 has left #maemo03:00
jotti suppose the only real problem are situations where the Fn (AltGr) key is bound to something exclusive03:00
jottbut even this should not be a big problem03:00
pupnik_will do right away.  i don't understand yet how it requires changes to dosbox keymapper.txt03:00
*** megabyte405 has quit IRC03:00
jottoh.. only because of the usescancodes=false03:00
jottthe ö ä ü keys are not working.. (maybe it's even only a problem with a german layout)03:01
*** megabyte405 has joined #maemo03:01
jottso 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 IRC03:02
*** ken has joined #maemo03:03
jottoh i mapped them to the us keys ;)03:03
jottas : is missing .. and that's critical ;)03:04
jott(as shift . = >)03:04
jottbut 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
jottyes.. and dosbox makes it's own mapping..03:05
pupnik_ok right03:05
jottyou could probably write a keyboard tsr driver ;)03:05
*** [pablo] has quit IRC03:05
jottor 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 remap03:06
dolskeIs there a way to bring up the onscreen keyboard on a N810?03:06
jottyeah well the mapping.txt works quite nice. even tought it might not be generic03:06
jotthttp://sse2.net/mapper.txt that's what i got atm.. (derived from your mapper.txt)03:07
*** Zetx has quit IRC03:08
pupnik_argh.  we are going to need to write mapper.txt for every language?03:09
jottpossibly.. but i have similar problems on my desktop with dosbox and non us layouts03:10

pupnik_jott: at dosbox prompt type keyb gr03:31
jottaah yeah.. now i remember this one ;)03:32
pupnik_well it fixes the . :  but the fn combos are broken03:32
pupnik_i'm getting some problems with 'stuck key' and repeats03:33
jottmh03:33
pupnik_ok problem happens when fn key is pressed, then number key, then fn released before the number key is released03:33
*** eton has quit IRC03:34
*** eton has joined #maemo03:34
pupnik_not sure if this is something that can be 'fixed' cleanly03:34
pupnik_maybe a 'release all keydowns when fn key is released'03:35
jotthmm yeah.. wonder if it is dosbox specific03:35
jotthmm i'll test it with my simple test app ;)03:35
*** dashiad has joined #maemo03:36
jottatleast in a regular sdl event loop this does not happen..03:37
jottanyway.. maybe we can fix this03:37
*** Cptnodegard has quit IRC03:37
*** dashiad has left #maemo03:38
*** JussiP has quit IRC03:42
jotthmm yeah i suppose a fix in the libsdl layer is not that trivial..03:43
*** desrt has joined #maemo03:44
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 key03:45
lcddcool. i didn't expect video from mit world to work on the tablet03:45
pupnik_because otherwise you will not detect a keyup event on that key03:46
jottsomething 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
jottmaybe the X11_TranslateKey could be enhanced such that it remembers the Fn key..03:47
jottpupnik_: yeah i also think its more important to have the keys at all for now ;)03:47
jottbut still it's something one will see sooner or later and depending on the application based event handling it can have ugly side effects03:47
pupnik_maybe there are other solutions, but afaict one needs to store state of FN key and last-key-pressed-while-fn-key-depressed somewhere03:51
jottyeah something like that would also be my first idea.03:51
jottand you can also trigger more than one key-down event at once ;/03:53
jottlike press 1-2-3-4 at the same time ..03:53
pupnik_ok true03:54
jottthose 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 all03:54
jottyeah.. 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
*** jga23 has quit IRC03:57
*** jga23 has joined #maemo03:57
xmentbtw any way how to change os2008's xterm fg/bg color? (not only bg)03:59
jottxment: go to the font settings03:59
pupnik_jott i think it's important to implement your patch *now* in the official OS2008 libSDL03:59
jott(in the xterm)03:59
xmentoh, that's nasty04:00
xmentjott: thanks04:00
jottnp..04:00
jottpupnik_: yeah.. well maybe in a bit less hacky way? ;)...04:01
jottmaybe 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 order04:01
pupnik_or bugs.maemo.org04:02
jottyeah.. i guess bugs.maemo.org is the appropiate place04:02
jottor check with the sdl guys..04:02
jottdon't really know whom to blame for this..04:02
spirytusickpupnik_: jott: Guys, you seem to know what you are talking about. Do you think we will ever see povervr on n8x0 ?04:04
jottspirytusick: i doubt there will be an official driver..04:05
spirytusickjott: pitty :( such a waste of core space :(04:05
jottbut it's not entirely impossible to hack some foreign driver to use the n8x0 lcd...04:06
*** smackpotato has joined #maemo04:06
spirytusickjott: is the lcd controller that bad ?04:06
jottdepends what you call bad.. but it has serious bandwith problems..04:07
jottwidth.04:07
lcuk_2jott, 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 cludge04:07
jottlcuk_2: that's the reason why i doubt an official driver..04:08
lcuk_2you would have to render to the internal framebuffer on the 2420 then copy out of there onto the lcd04:08
lcuk_2yer same here04:08
jottbut still there would be ways to push the framebuffer from the powervr to the lcd controller..04:08
jottyep04:08
jottthat's what i was thinking about ..04:08
spirytusickjott: wouldn't it be slower anyway ?04:08
jottsure..04:08
lcuk_2its 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-gage04:09
jottlcuk_2: but all the nseries devices have no intermediate lcd controller..04:09
pupnik_right04:09
spirytusickpupnik_: I suppose you might be right with this one04:10
spirytusickpupnik_: however as of this moment n-gage platform is sort of non-existent yet04:10
lcuk_2spiry, 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 winner04:10
lcuk_2jott thats because they are lower resultion04:10
jottlcuk_2: i know.04:11
spirytusickpupnik_: and judging by the quality of games available as demos, I would rather play the 3rd party emus04:11
lcuk_2:)04:11
pupnik_powervr would be a godsend for a psx emulator04:11
jottanyway.. the powervr is quite fast..04:11
jottand it would definitely bring a perfomance boost to anything 3d related..04:11
spirytusicklcuk_2: I suppose it would still be possible to use it for quick scaling/flitering04:11
lcuk_2yer if you can fill it up and make use of it it will be beneficial04:11
jottso it would run with with pixel doubleing enabled etc..04:12
*** becksbier has joined #maemo04:12
lcuk_2i would be happy running in 640*480 no doubling04:12
jottlcuk_2: yeah.. but then again this might cause bandwith trouble...04:12
jottanyway..04:12
jottTI took the driver from their page :(04:13
|tbb|what does that mean -> Requested IAP is not connected and timed flag is set04:13
spirytusickwell even 400x240 with doubling would not be so bad as long as it was accelerated04:13
jottspirytusick: i totally agree..04:13
lcuk_2how about *ANYTHING* would be good so long as we used the hardware on the device which we paid for...04:13
jottwell given some effort there have to be ways to do this i suppose..04:13
spirytusickand if we could get accelerated composite extension, then some os2008 home applets might even become usable04:14

spirytusickwhat are the main obstacles there ?\04:28
lcuk_2touchscreen 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 screen04:29

darkipquick question, is there any easy way to download all the UK maps for maemo mapper?14:23
crashanddieLuria, lucky guy14:24
Luriavery14:24
lcukdark, 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 range14:24
lcuki think you can get them for specific routes simpler (from what i read in here)14:24
Luriastill, he took one shot to the shoulder, it was a two pronged ambush14:24
Luriabut he survived14:25
lcukhe should have forked the process14:25
crashanddieI'd rather take one in the shoulder than in the leg, if you ask me14:25
lcuklcd on one side keyboard on the other14:25
darkipah ok14:25
darkipand also, it's not possible to plan a route without an internet connection is it?14:26
Luriayeah, me too. no femural artery in the shoulder.14:26
crashanddieI can live with only one arm, I doubt I'd be as happy with only one leg14:26
lcukim not sure dark, have you had a look on internettablettalk forum - they have discussions about mapping etc all the time14:26
lcuki couldnt live without my ARM now14:26
johnxdarkip, yes, maemo mapper needs to be able to access the internet to do routing14:27
*** Crfrodf has quit IRC14:27
Luriathe 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 think14:27
lcukhave 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 upright14:27
darkipare there any free alternatives which do?14:28
Luriayeah, we all read /.14:28
crashanddiedarkip, maemo mapper uses web servers in order to create routes, hence the required internet connectivity14:28
crashanddiedarkip, I don't think there are any free alternatives that do a good job , honnestly14:29
darkipah, well cheers anyway :)14:29
johnxdarkip, navit.sf.net14:30
johnxhaven't looked at it recently though14:30
darkipi didn't think there was a port available yet?14:30
johnxah, maybe not14:30
lcukhas anyone got the full paid for mapper, and if so is it worth it14:32
darkipwell, i've tried the trial...14:32
lcukwhat did you think14:32
darkipi was working on reverse engineering the registration process but didn't get far14:33
Luriawayfinder is embarrasingly bad14:33
darkipit was ok, i was using the built in GPS in my n81014:33
darkipwhich takes FOREVER to aquire a signal14:33
darkipbut on more positive notes, apparently you can compile navit for n800 - http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Navit_on_n770/n80014:33
lcukdark, 810 is bad at getting signal for us if we sit it in cradle, if its on girlfriends lap it aquires much quicker14:34
lcuki think orientation helps14:34
darkipi only had my grandpa in the car14:34
johnxmaybe it just likes your girlfriend?14:34
|tbb|hats the difference between  run-standalone.sh dbus-send or dbus-send alone14:34
darkipi was at a disadvantage obviously14:34
darkip;)14:34
lcuklol thinking that14:35
Luriaoh wow14:35
darkip?14:35
johnxbetter 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
lcuktry it with a nubile young lady and it will ping instantly14:35
Luriaive been looking for something just like that14:35
lcukhey she threatened me yesterday14:35
Lurianav for x86 linux14:35
darkipyep..14:36
darkipi might have a try and compiling it14:36
|tbb|s/hats/whats/14:36
infobot|tbb| meant: whats the difference between  run-standalone.sh dbus-send or dbus-send alone14:36
lcukrun standalone is intended only for the scratchbox environment i think tbb14:37
|tbb|ah k14:37
lcukif you are running on the device itself you dont need it14:37
lcuki know for gtk apps if you dont run standalone it doesnt hildonize it and it looks crap14:37
lcukif you run-standalone then it does the extra i think14:38
lcukbut i hate scratchpox with a passion now (i might learn to love it eventually) so try to not run in emulated14:38
|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 case14:39
*** ch4os_ has joined #maemo14:39
lcuktbb, 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 know14:40
lcuki 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 bad14:41
lcukdoes this dialog only come up if the user has actually selected a network14:41
crashanddieI'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 jacket14:42
|tbb|lcuk: likely yes14:42
lcukcrash, exactly - i have mine set to @always ask@14:42
lcuktbb, if thats the case and the network fails just let the user handle it14:43
crashanddieyeah, I guess I should set it to that too14:43
Luriaok, bed time14:43
Luriabye all14:43
|tbb|oh sorry, wrong understand14:43
lcuki 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 automaticly14:43
*** Luria has quit IRC14:43
|tbb|and i want stop it if it fails14:43
lcukthe 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 again14:43
lcukhow do you mean automatically tbb?14:44
johnxlcuk, I forgot if I asked this...were you in offline mode?14:44
|tbb|dbus-send14:44
lcuksurely its down to user preferences whether automatic is allowed14:44
lcukno john, but im set to always ask14:44
lcuktbb, you mean you say @please connect to a network@14:44
lcukdamn these @@@ quote keys14:45
crashanddieI didn't use the phone connection yet, should try to see if it's worth anything...14:45
crashanddieYou guys know it's possible to have IP over BT right ?14:45
lcukyes john, but its slower and i dont like the extra BT crap[ running on my windows box14:45
crashanddieI know it's feasible with a cellphone, so I'm pretty sure it's doable with the tablet... I should write something about that though14:46
lcukusing wifi is simple as the rest of my system is geared up for it14:46
|tbb|yeah14:46
crashanddiein other words, computer is connected to an ethernet network, and 810 surfs through BT on the laptop14:46
lcuk810 ---BT---> BTDongle->desktop ----> internet14:47
lcuk810 ---wifi---> router ---->internet14:47
crashanddielcuk, I'm talking if wifi isn't available14:48
lcuk810 ---BT---> BTDongle->desktop ----> router -----> internet14:48
|tbb|is it possible to send keystrokes to the maemo desktop14:48
lcukcrash, i agree it can work if thats whats available14:48
crashanddiealso, I might get myself an ethernet to usb adapter and try to get that to work with the 81014:48
crashanddiewould be nice though14:48
johnx|tbb|, look for "fake keystroke x11"14:49
lcukwifi USB dongle works great - thats what i use here, the router is work connection.14:49
lcukset the computer to use ad-hoc mode14:49
johnxbut something like wmctrl would be better I think14:49
lcukits nice and quick :)14:49
crashanddielcuk, agreed14:50
lcukthe only one i couldnt get working was my phone connection - its got 3g super data stream or something, but the phone isnt exposing the connection14:51
johnxmaybe the phone doesn't do BT DUN, but BT PAN instead?14:51
*** unique311 has joined #maemo14:51
lcuki 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 store14:52

lcuknokia 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 me14:54
lcuki can help with the specifics of this device but they need to know what settings i need to put in etc14:55
crashanddielcuk, 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 though14:55

alteregoYeah, not the only quick drops are when it's meandering to the pavement. 8O15:03

infobotalterego meant: Yeah, now the only quick drops are when it's meandering to the pavement. 8O15:04
* alterego kicks infobot up it's virtual ass.15:04
lcukOuch, 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 up15:05
jkulcuk, then again the n800 doesn't look too sturdy either, but it's survived my abuse pretty well...15:06
lcukthis 810 was too slippery when i got it, but ive cured that now with a big rubber stickon patch on the back15:06
jkuof course, no moving parts like n81015:06
|tbb|is there a source available -> osso-connectivity-ui-conndlgs15:07

lcukb0unc3,  yes, i can play 3pg videos from my phone, but i cant seem to play them from m.youtube.com15:08
lcukits a shame because youtube would be much better from the mobile version15:08
b0unc3lcuk: with mplayer ?15:08
lcuki hope its just a codec issue and can be rectified15:08
lcukdunno, use standard media player15:08
lcukdoes mplayer take over playback of mime types - it didnt seem to when i installed it before15:09

lcukhmmm 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
GeneralAntillesBut data's just gonna get bigger, too.20:05
fysaon the longest timeline, networked storage has one major thing going against it -- latency.20:06
fysathe 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
lcuki think its because the plugin expects anjuta 2.3, but from the install list on vmware only 2.2.0 is available20:06
alteregoThe government will keep all our storage, using our RFID identity cards we can access them through any device,20:06
nabalcuk: Make sure anjuta version you are installing is >= 2.3.0, because the maemo plugin requires that.20:06
GeneralAntilles5-years assuming doubling every year.20:06
fysayes, data is going to get bigger.  But if the network gets faster, data can get bigger and simultaneously less ubiquitous.20:06
alteregoOh, and they don't need permission to look through our files or even raid our homes for data seizure.20:06
spirytusickalterego: thank you, I would pass on that20:07
GeneralAntillesand that doesn't provide for big tech jumps which occur every so often.20:07
nabalcuk: Unfortunately, the plugin does not complain if you have lower version (I mentioned it to the author).20:07
fysai.e., if I had gigabit DSL/cablemodem..20:07
lcuknaba, will grab it from their site directly then, brb20:07
fysaI would open my RAID server up to friends.20:07
GeneralAntillesalterego, nah, it's all backed up to the <isn't government organization here> automatically.20:07

alteregoWhen 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
fysathat is a good thing.20:10
alteregoWhat do they need personal storage for?20:10
fysaI would prefer to have Canonical maintain my 'personal' Ubuntu installation.20:10
fysaand then I get to install 'packages' into $HOME20:10
fysathen I can be at any computer, anymore, and access my workplace desktop.20:11
fysaer, anywhere.20:11
spirytusickfysa: looks beautifuly, let's wait to see how much the bandwidth prices will fall down20:12
fysahardware manufacturers sell 'form factors' of open-ended designs that you turn into appliances by pointing them at a web site.20:12
alteregoI might make a new home on an 8G mini SD when they eventually appear.20:12
fysayes, bandwidth is the key. :)20:13

reinarddoes anyone have a good settings playing flv's in mplayer22:38
reinardi would appreciate it22:38
fysahaven't tried yet, but shouldn't be a problem.  what are you experiencing?22:38
reinard-framedrop -nosound makes video play good, but is there someway to make those play good with audio22:40
fysawhat resolution/bitrate are the flvs?22:40
fysa(where are they from?)22:40
felipeckillfill: it works here22:41
felipecwith the media player22:41

killfillhm.. mplayer works fine...22:42
reinardflv's are something like 300-500*200-400... streaming tv-series mostly22:43
killfillfelipec: how did you add the stream?.. menu->clip->the second menu?22:43
felipeckillfill: I had to add it to my favorite internet radios22:43
reinardis there some setting to prevent mplayer to scale the file to fullscreen. so it would play it in 1:1 or 2:122:44
killfillweired.. it doesnt work here.. :S22:45
killfillfelipec: you added the stream in the second menu?.. you just entered http://....:800/...ogg?22:45
fysaare H264 flvs common-place yet?22:46
fysaif so, that could be an issue.  I dont22:46
fysaI don't think h264 decoding is very optimized for our devices yet in mplayer core.22:46
fysa(very unoptimized)22:46
fysaBTW - Yabause, the Sega Saturn emulator, compiles cleanly. ;)22:46
*** jackster has joined #maemo22:47
reinardthat might be it... still, is there that no fullscreen option?22:47
fysathe fullscreen button on top works for me22:47
reinardhmm, that just crashes my device22:48
fysayou likely need a better mplayer then ;)22:48
killfillfelipec: in here, it says with  "Processing buffer"22:48
killfillstays22:48
killfilldoesnt start playing22:48
felipeckillfill: it takes a long while here, and doesn't play too well22:48
felipecbut it does22:49
reinardmy device is very unstable in everything though.. opera crashes every 2min (hangs and boots the device)22:49
reinardthis happens in every it os i have tried22:49
killfilloh.. there it is.. i guess the buffer is hudge.. :P22:49
killfill:D22:50
* pupnik relegates another evening to dosbox22:50
fysaHave you tried Yabause yet, pupnik?22:50
killfillhm.. i hear strange things in the stream.. i thought it was my PC player.. seems to be the server..22:50

EruditeHermithi, where can I find a list of the default packages for OS200823:29
EruditeHermitalso is there a repository with these packages?23:29
hendryEruditeHermit: i think http://www.gronmayer.com/it is what you need23:30
EruditeHermithendry: yes I have those things installed23:30
EruditeHermiterr those repositories23:30
EruditeHermitmy problem is that I tried to install rtcom beta23:30
EruditeHermitbut I realised that I didn't want to use beta stuff23:31
EruditeHermitso I tried removing the beta installer23:31
EruditeHermitbut it left an item in my menu23:31
EruditeHermitand I am not sure if it left behind some packages that I don't need23:31
hendrydebian packages are usually pretty good with removing things like menu items23:32
hendrycan't really help you i'm afraid23:32
