| GeneralAntilles | kkrusty, what, you want a cookie? :P | 01:56 |
| kkrusty | sure. why not? | 01:57 |
| kkrusty | wondering whether this has happened to anyone else | 01:57 |
| GeneralAntilles | I'm quite certain it has. | 01:57 |
| chibiAcyd | its so hot outside i burned myself on my n810 | 01:58 |
| lcuk | dont leave it in the sun | 01:58 |
| lcuk | would have thought that would apply to all electronics though | 01:58 |
| GeneralAntilles | I'd be more worried about the damage to the battery than the damage to the OMAP. | 01:58 |
| chibiAcyd | it was in my pocket | 01:58 |
| kkrusty | the crash happens when Im scrolling to a new page | 01:59 |
| lcuk | are you sure you didnt short circuit it ? | 01:59 |
| GeneralAntilles | kkrusty, tried Evince? | 01:59 |
| chibiAcyd | i was about to say evince lol | 01:59 |
| lcuk | kkrusty, did you reload it and try again? is it reproducable or just a random crash which you can just move past? | 02:00 |
| kkrusty | I did, I seem to have had the same problem but Im not sure | 02:00 |
| lcuk | well did it crash again or not? | 02:00 |
| *** Cymor has left #maemo | 02:01 | |
| kkrusty | lcuk: Its most certainly a random crash because its happened before and I just keep on reading after a reboot | 02:01 |
| chibiAcyd | well im gonna hop off here and let my battery cool a bit. later | 02:01 |
| *** chibiAcyd has quit IRC | 02:01 | |
| lcuk | cos that happens (too frequently) to me but its various programs and not 1 specific thing | 02:01 |
| lcuk | i only ever rebooted by pda a couple of times in its entire life, i seem to do this at least once or twice a week | 02:03 |
| GeneralAntilles | PDA != Pocket-sized Linux computer. | 02:03 |
| kkrusty | well another thing about it is that it only seems to happen when I scroll to a new page. And it doesnt really crash, more like doesnt respon | 02:04 |
| lcuk | same form factor, same programs - sure i can compile anything i want, but similar for pda - they equal for lots of tasks - sure the 8x0 goes beyond and has additional features and things to do | 02:04 |
| kkrusty | *respond | 02:04 |

| lcuk | and if freeze doesnt watchdog kick it | 02:05 |
| lcuk | in | 02:05 |
| kkrusty | freeze, I was desperately looking for that word | 02:06 |
| kkrusty | bad brain! | 02:06 |
| GeneralAntilles | Does it come out of the freeze? | 02:06 |
| GeneralAntilles | Is the PDF complicated? | 02:06 |
| kkrusty | GeneralAntilles: depends on what you mean complicated. It is long i.e. 200+ pages | 02:07 |
| GeneralAntilles | Images? | 02:07 |
| kkrusty | GeneralAntilles: Nope | 02:07 |
| GeneralAntilles | Anyway, tried Evince? | 02:07 |
| kkrusty | GeneralAntilles: yeah I do. I might have had the same problem with that but Im not sure. I'll give it a go and report back if anything goes wrong | 02:09 |
| kkrusty | GeneralAntilles: normally though the default pdf viewer is convenient because thats the default viewer | 02:09 |
| kkrusty | GeneralAntilles: so thats what I end up using most of the time | 02:09 |
| GeneralAntilles | Traditionally, the built-in PDF viewer has been useless | 02:10 |

| derf | But I didn't think trying to explain to the guy that he was hurting national security more than he was helping it would've done much good. | 06:09 |
| summatusmentis | you don't get like... security clearance or something that you can just flash and they leave you alone? | 06:10 |

| derf | summatusmentis: Only if you actually work for the government itself. | 06:10 |
| derf | But even that doesn't work very well outside your chosen agency. | 06:11 |

| derf | Like, my sister works for TSA, so she's got creds to flash. But if she wanted to get into, say, Coast Guard headquarters, they'd just look at her funny. | 06:12 |
| summatusmentis | well, sure | 06:12 |
| summatusmentis | but I feel like some creds would trump stupid TSA rules | 06:12 |
| derf | I'm pretty sure if someone from the Coast Guard tried to flash creds at a TSA worker, they still wouldn't buy it. | 06:13 |
| derf | The people at the bottom don't know nothing _but_ the rules. | 06:13 |
| summatusmentis | they might if it were NSA or something | 06:13 |

| summatusmentis | so you get enough leeway to decide if you want to contribute to the contract? | 06:32 |

| RussB | Does anyone know why Aislerot hasn't gotten ported to Maemo 4.x yet? | 08:30 |
| RussB | I keep waiting for someone to get around to recompiling it or something.. (as I don't have the knowledge myself to do it). | 08:30 |
| GAN800 | Somebody did | 08:31 |
| qwerty12 | It has been. A long time ago now. Check the debfarm repo. | 08:31 |
| GAN800 | look harder | 08:31 |
| RussB | Well, I looked on the maemo download site and on the official gnome.org Hildon page... | 08:31 |
| RussB | You know, just the obvious places. :-) | 08:31 |
| rm_you | check gronmayer? | 08:32 |
| GAN800 | google? | 08:32 |
| GAN800 | 'aisleriot os2008' | 08:33 |

| qwerty12 | Please tell me, how is it possible to miss the first result? | 08:38 |
| RussB | The thread with the random packages to install? | 08:39 |
| RussB | have you actually gotten that working? Or are you just assuming that's correct? | 08:39 |
| qwerty12 | The thread with *the* aisleriot packages to install? | 08:39 |
| qwerty12 | Yes, I have had it working. | 08:39 |
| RussB | Sure. | 08:40 |
| qwerty12 | Well, it ain't just me who has had it working ;) | 08:40 |
| GAN800 | lol. . . . | 08:41 |
| RussB | And it ain't just me asking about it... :-) | 08:41 |
| qwerty12 | Easiest way would be to go to gronmayer, add the debfarm repo and go to application manager and install aisleriot from the list. | 08:42 |
| qwerty12 | The debfarm is a repo which really should be gone and the packages on extras btw, very very unstable (probably because it's on a free web hosting) | 08:43 |

| sven-tek | anyone here played around with virtualgl or something like that to play 3d games on a n8x0? | 13:50 |
| lcuk | sven-tek, virtualgl being software gl stack? | 13:50 |
| sven-tek | no, it is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualGL | 13:51 |
| sven-tek | the idea is, to use a high performance 3D capable PC and transport the rendered images to a client, e.g. a VNC Client. | 13:52 |
| *** b0unc3__ has quit IRC | 13:52 | |
| lcuk | sven-tek, the problem i see with that implementation would be lack of 3d drivers, unless you know something the rest of us dont | 13:53 |
| sven-tek | I have nvidia with good 3D drivers. | 13:53 |
| lcuk | ahhh i see which direction, i was thinking of you directly on the device still | 13:53 |
| Jaffa | What's the benefit VirtualGL gives you? You have a PC playing the game, which presumably has a monitor, and you need a fast network link. I don't, quite, get it. | 13:54 |
| lcuk | no then, dont think its been suggested, could you get the framerate via vnc up there and rendered quickly? remember the framebuffer on here doesnt like fullscreen updates of the 3d type | 13:54 |
| lcuk | 2d type | 13:55 |
| *** harryl has quit IRC | 13:55 | |

| Saviq | lcuk: no, I'm in poland | 13:58 |
| lcuk | saviq, how far behind are you - i suggest you find a way to catch up and watch everything. if you are a who fan they are well worth it | 13:59 |
| Saviq | the last one I've seen was The Unicorn and The Wasp | 14:00 |
| Saviq | so 3 eps behin | 14:00 |
| Saviq | d | 14:00 |
| lcuk | that makes a nice afternoon of viewing then :) | 14:00 |
| sven-tek | lcuk, and multitouch i suppose... | 14:02 |
| rm_you | Saviq: got at least the library to go | 14:02 |
| rm_you | plus last nights | 14:02 |
| lcuk | sven-tek, don't know for sure about that, but it would seem logical that most large research labs have many magical technologies hiding away | 14:02 |
| lcuk | im still waiting for true proper lcd hardware multitouch :) instead of just 3 voxels for rgb, they use 4: RGB+sensor every single pixel has a light sensor and they know when its covered up. should be possible using the same tech as current displays just bidirectional | 14:05 |
| Jaffa | Our luck says we'd only be able to read 1 pixel inbound every second, due to "bandwidth constraints" | 14:06 |
| AStorm | lcuk: how does that react to light? | 14:06 |
| AStorm | anyway, capacitive screens can do multitouch not-so-expensively | 14:06 |
| AStorm | although they have other drawbacks | 14:07 |
| AStorm | I'd love to see a portable sonic screen (sound-wave based) | 14:07 |
| AStorm | that should do fairly good multitouch too | 14:07 |
| lcuk | jaffa, it should work quite nicely i read a paper on it a while back | 14:08 |
| lcuk | and astorm, what do you mean react to light? it would react just like the CCD sensor in your camera cos thats all it is | 14:09 |
| AStorm | yes | 14:09 |
| AStorm | I mean, would it work in low-light conditions? | 14:09 |
| AStorm | or high-light? | 14:09 |
| lcuk | well since the lcd is backlit and you always have some leakage you always have *some* light around to pickup on | 14:10 |
| lcuk | high light is fine because your finger would cover it up.. | 14:10 |
| AStorm | hm | 14:10 |
| *** thefatherofall has quit IRC | 14:10 | |
| Jaffa | Would be very cool if it could be used as a camera: look at the screen and you're dead on for the webcam. That'd be *very* cool tech | 14:10 |
| AStorm | what about medium light then? :P | 14:10 |
| AStorm | Jaffa: w/o any lenses? crazy and low-res | 14:10 |
| *** harryl has joined #maemo | 14:10 | |
| AStorm | you'd be totally out of focus | 14:11 |
| AStorm | it could be used as a motion sensor though | 14:11 |
| AStorm | (heck, it is one) | 14:11 |
| AStorm | lcuk: I'd improve on the tech by using infrared instead of light | 14:11 |
| AStorm | that should work better | 14:11 |
| AStorm | although more expensively | 14:11 |
| lcuk | well its still light | 14:12 |
| lcuk | you mean an IR backlight? | 14:12 |
| lcuk | type thing | 14:12 |
| AStorm | no, what for? | 14:12 |
| AStorm | your hands emit or block IR | 14:12 |
| lcuk | to reflect from your finger back into the sensor | 14:12 |
| AStorm | why? | 14:12 |
| lcuk | because then you have a single screen without the need for any outside tech | 14:13 |
| sven-tek | i hate touchscreen, they are not responsive | 14:13 |
| AStorm | sven-tek: they are great for some uses | 14:13 |
| sven-tek | iam much slower with touchscreen than with keys | 14:13 |
| AStorm | heh, that's just you | 14:13 |
| AStorm | they are not a replacement for key input | 14:13 |
| sven-tek | yeah, touchscreens are great for mahjongg | 14:13 |
| AStorm | blah, and drawing | 14:14 |
| AStorm | and entering handwriting | 14:14 |
| lcuk | here is the original LED one i saw, which actually just used the LEDs themselves as sensors | 14:14 |
| lcuk | http://www.cs.nyu.edu/~jhan/ledtouch/index.html | 14:14 |
| sven-tek | cool tech | 14:14 |
| *** geaaru has quit IRC | 14:14 | |
| AStorm | lcuk: note he uses very bright leds | 14:14 |
| AStorm | you'd need an excellent sensor | 14:14 |
| AStorm | to use normal backlight levels | 14:14 |
| lcuk | but the idea is there, hence my original post "im still waiting" | 14:15 |
| AStorm | and the sensor with the controller would have to be fairly fast | 14:15 |
| rm_you | wait | 14:15 |
| lcuk | just like most modern CCD sensors | 14:15 |
| sven-tek | touching a black area in an jpg is not possible then? | 14:15 |
| rm_you | does he have other sensors there | 14:15 |
| lcuk | no | 14:15 |
| rm_you | or is he using the LCDs themselves? | 14:15 |
| AStorm | lcuk: not really, more like hq digital camera | 14:15 |
| AStorm | not your plain webcam (low sensitivity) or scanner (slow) | 14:16 |
| lcuk | leds themselves - when they get light on them the current drop or whatever it is changes | 14:16 |
| rm_you | err yeah LEDs | 14:16 |
| AStorm | fotodiodes actually? :) | 14:16 |
| lcuk | In 1977, Forrest M. Mims reminds us in one of his "Engineer's Notebooks" that LEDs can also be used as photodiodes... | 14:16 |
| AStorm | lcuk: the problem is... how do you detect the distance from the screen? | 14:16 |
| rm_you | yeah | 14:16 |
| lcuk | you dont - its touch | 14:16 |
| AStorm | lcuk: no, it's not | 14:17 |
| AStorm | it's reflected light | 14:17 |
| glass | it's shadow | 14:17 |
| AStorm | glass: or shadow, yes, depends | 14:17 |
| glass | so.. need good ambient light | 14:17 |
| AStorm | glass: these are actually reflected light | 14:17 |
| glass | ah | 14:17 |
| glass | from the led itself? | 14:17 |
| AStorm | no, from the 1000W light source behind them? ;) | 14:17 |
| AStorm | sure | 14:17 |
| AStorm | from the led | 14:18 |
| lcuk | or others or the backlight - and something astorm just said, IR light - put that in with the backlight and use that | 14:18 |
| AStorm | I'm positive the effect isn't sensitive enough | 14:18 |
| AStorm | plain physics tells you :) | 14:18 |
| lcuk | its being worked on though :) | 14:18 |
| AStorm | or you'll get a lot of noise | 14:18 |
| sven-tek | perhaps you can modulate some frequency on the rgb light, so the sensor can distinguish the signal | 14:18 |
| glass | thats neat then, but dunno how workable as anything else than touchpad(without screen) | 14:18 |
| AStorm | glass: think OLED | 14:18 |
| AStorm | shrink the leds down, make a screen that reacts to touch | 14:19 |
| AStorm | fairly workable | 14:19 |
| AStorm | you could even apply this to any screen | 14:19 |
| AStorm | using transparent photodiodes | 14:19 |
| * AStorm goes to file the patent ;P | 14:19 | |
| lcuk | yes astorm, RGB+input per pixel | 14:19 |
| AStorm | I suspect it won't work anyway ;P | 14:20 |
| AStorm | the resolution can be 1/3 of the screens | 14:21 |
| AStorm | or even less | 14:21 |
| AStorm | just how much you want | 14:21 |
| lcuk | why 1/3? 1 sensor per pixel | 14:21 |
| AStorm | what for? | 14:21 |
| AStorm | that would be expensive | 14:21 |
| AStorm | and touch isn't that precise | 14:22 |
| lcuk | why expensive, its part of the same fab process as the lcd panel itself | 14:22 |
| AStorm | you need about 1/2 the size of the stylus | 14:22 |
| lcuk | touch is normally MORE precise - on this device its got something like... umm lemme look it up | 14:22 |
| *** lbt has joined #maemo | 14:22 | |
| AStorm | no, it's not | 14:23 |
| AStorm | it won't ever be | 14:23 |
| AStorm | you can't touch with pixel precision anyway | 14:23 |
| lcuk | 3585 pixels X, 3195 pixels Y | 14:23 |
| lcuk | the sensor is VERY capable on our nokias and we have to downsample | 14:24 |
| lcuk | this is common in touch displays | 14:24 |
| AStorm | yes | 14:24 |
| AStorm | but anyway, what's the diff? | 14:24 |
| AStorm | what is the accuracy for? | 14:24 |
| *** Free_maN has quit IRC | 14:25 | |
| lcuk | because its free :) | 14:25 |
| *** Free_maN has joined #maemo | 14:25 | |
| AStorm | blah, but not in the CCD design | 14:25 |
| lcuk | and the touch display people have standard tech that can handle resolutions which have gone beyond LCDs. the panel people dont know what LCD its going to be used with | 14:26 |
| lcuk | no, the ccd design would use 1 sensor per pixel | 14:26 |
| AStorm | no | 14:26 |
| lcuk | no alignment issues or drifting and always at the correct resolution | 14:26 |
| AStorm | that's expensive | 14:26 |
| AStorm | it can use less | 14:26 |
| AStorm | note, 800x480 sensor is fairly expensie | 14:27 |
| AStorm | such sensors are used in scanners | 14:27 |
| AStorm | cost is like, 50$/unit | 14:27 |
| lcuk | but it will be made with the same fab process as current LCD boards, why would it be more expensive | 14:27 |
| AStorm | because the materials are | 14:27 |
| lcuk | ? the same materials | 14:27 |
| AStorm | and it has to be transparent CCD, increasing the cost | 14:27 |

| AStorm | color? | 14:28 |
| AStorm | that small? | 14:28 |
| lcuk | im not thinking oled - im thinking lcd | 14:28 |

| lcuk | just like we currently have - oled is still not workable | 14:28 |
| *** samppsa has quit IRC | 14:28 | |
| AStorm | normal LCD would be uberexpensive at these sizes | 14:28 |
| lcuk | the lcd i have in front of me is 19" and very cheap | 14:28 |
| AStorm | and very hard to produce | 14:28 |
| AStorm | and what's the dot size? | 14:29 |
| AStorm | :) | 14:29 |
| AStorm | wait, wait | 14:29 |
| lcuk | not 225dpi, but i have a 4" one here | 14:29 |
| AStorm | LCD... no, that's diff tech than CCD | 14:29 |
| AStorm | sorry | 14:29 |
| AStorm | CCDs are diodes | 14:29 |
| lcuk | LEDs are diodes as well | 14:29 |
| AStorm | CMOS light sensors are cheaper, but less sensitive | 14:29 |
| AStorm | LEDs are expensive :) | 14:29 |
| AStorm | LCDs are cheap in comparison | 14:30 |
| AStorm | actually, a capacitive screen could use similar tech to LCDs | 14:30 |
| AStorm | just have a coat of transparent transistors | 14:30 |
| AStorm | anyway, really, CCD touch sensor will be expensive | 14:31 |
| AStorm | and hard to mass produce | 14:31 |
| AStorm | unless OLEDs get cheap and available | 14:32 |
| lcuk | which is something all the related companies are working towards | 14:32 |
| AStorm | :) | 14:32 |
| AStorm | yes, for oled screen, traditional touch sensors won't work good | 14:32 |
| lcuk | ccd is not hard to mass produce - just look at how much of the world is covered by a ccd right now | 14:33 |
| *** felipec has joined #maemo | 14:33 | |
| AStorm | it is at large sizes and resolutions | 14:33 |
| AStorm | you need a fairly large CCD matrix (not of too high res though) | 14:33 |
| *** thopiekar has quit IRC | 14:33 | |
| lcuk | do you think they fab these things in tiny chip sized sections? they make entire sheets of the things like cpus | 14:33 |
| AStorm | they do make these things in sheets, but | 14:34 |
| AStorm | they're made using the same tech as CPUs | 14:34 |
| AStorm | esp. CMOS sensors | 14:34 |
| AStorm | (CCDs are different technology) | 14:34 |
| AStorm | (but related) | 14:34 |
| AStorm | problem will be scaling the sensor up | 14:34 |
| AStorm | and making it transparent | 14:34 |
| AStorm | w/o OLED which could react to light | 14:35 |
| *** m-c has joined #maemo | 14:35 | |
| lcuk | why make it transparent? the aim is to sit it amongst the light generating voxels not infront of | 14:35 |
| AStorm | then you have to make it tinier | 14:36 |
| AStorm | and have light focus on it somehow | 14:36 |
| AStorm | = add microlenses? | 14:37 |
| lcuk | what? like 12megapixel in a tiny 5mm^2 area? | 14:37 |
| AStorm | no | 14:37 |
| *** b0unc3_ has joined #maemo | 14:37 | |
| AStorm | see, you need a lens t have enough light to focus on that tiny sensor | 14:37 |
| *** BabelO has joined #maemo | 14:38 | |
| AStorm | it's easier to make a big one and transparent | 14:38 |
| AStorm | hopefully sensitive enough | 14:38 |
| *** alextreme has joined #maemo | 14:38 | |
| lcuk | not really, sensitivity depends upon refresh rate, slow refresh == more light, its been the same and theres lots of camera engineers around who work magic in signal processing around the world to make it work | 14:40 |
| AStorm | not really | 14:40 |
| AStorm | you need it to have high bit depth | 14:40 |
| lcuk | anyway, like i said originally, im still waiting but my tummy is rumbling so im grabbing breakfast | 14:40 |
| AStorm | at least 4-bit | 14:40 |
| AStorm | :) | 14:40 |
| AStorm | and low noise | 14:40 |
| lcuk | bit depth comes from the a2d converter | 14:40 |
| AStorm | sensitivity is related to amount of light | 14:40 |
| AStorm | needed to excite the transistor or diode | 14:41 |
| AStorm | not to speed | 14:41 |
| AStorm | lcuk: yes and no, there's always some floor :) | 14:41 |

| lcuk | i know those are the immense positive aspects of release, but im not even sure what i want to do with the code (there is more than just this device) and keep looking for something which allows best of both | 15:08 |
| lbt | Are you thinking of doing a proprietary app? | 15:09 |
| lcuk | not specifically for this platform, but im thinking more than just maemo | 15:09 |
| lbt | ah, so multiple device support? | 15:09 |
| lbt | some open, some proprietary? | 15:09 |
| lcuk | thats a long time in the future but if i release now and accept code modifications it prevents me doing things in future in closed environments | 15:10 |
| lbt | Not necessarily | 15:10 |
| lbt | You need a copyright assignment | 15:10 |
| lbt | which may limit contributors | 15:11 |
| lcuk | but i keep swaying | 15:11 |
| * lcuk flipflops constantly on this | 15:11 | |
| lcuk | i got as far as putting gpl headers on all the files and going to the garage upload the other day.. | 15:12 |
| lcuk | but then bottled it | 15:12 |
| lbt | :) | 15:12 |
| lbt | Until you accept your first change then you really don't have a future problem - you fully own the code you wrote and you don't have to continue to release changes | 15:13 |
| lbt | however | 15:13 |
| lbt | any code you release will always be available under the GPL. | 15:13 |
| *** kkrusty has joined #maemo | 15:13 | |
| lbt | so there's no taking back (of the initial version anyhow) | 15:13 |
| lbt | But | 15:14 |
| lcuk | thats actually ok i understand that | 15:14 |
| lbt | OK - never sure if people get the implications | 15:14 |
| lbt | I've no idea what you know - and it sounds like you're not an old hand at GPL... | 15:14 |
| lcuk | im not, but ive spent long enough observing from the sidelines | 15:15 |
| lbt | was just going to add that no-one can take the gpl version and compete commercially | 15:15 |
| lcuk | yes they can, but they are under the same rules | 15:15 |
| lcuk | thats also not a consideration, its getting caught supporting a feature which was transitory | 15:16 |
| lbt | well, by commercially, I meant they can't take your GPL-released code and sell it as a closed app | 15:16 |
| lcuk | sure they can (at least until we catch them) | 15:16 |
| lbt | Hah :) | 15:16 |
| lcuk | david, do you have a vid of your gtk stuff? | 15:17 |
| lbt | gosh no!! | 15:17 |
| lbt | I'm just writing a noddy shopping list :) | 15:17 |
| lcuk | released it yet? | 15:17 |
| lbt | no | 15:17 |
| lcuk | :D heh | 15:17 |
| lbt | but if you want the code I'll email it to you | 15:17 |
| lbt | it's in a git repository | 15:18 |
| lcuk | what im actually thinking is putting all the base code out there to the graphics library and books part and seeing what people can do with it but just holding back on my graffiti app (which is looking better and better everyday) | 15:18 |
| lcuk | if we can get people used to working with rapid applications on maemo maybe the future for other things will be rosey | 15:19 |
| lbt | hey, that's cool... maybe you could throw up a simple app to get people started though? | 15:19 |
| lbt | Seriously I was looking at the base library as a launcher... | 15:19 |
| lbt | together with finger scrolling | 15:19 |
| lcuk | yer exactly - mini library for setting up and drawing to the screen with the text reader thing and a few of the other modules ive made - and then i can carry on with whats important to me and just link to the latest bit of a lib that can be expanded upon by anyone | 15:20 |
| lbt | and I wondered it could be made to scale in a non linear way which gives a 'lensing' appearance | 15:20 |
| lcuk | and ill forever use the lgpl lib in whatever i need :) | 15:20 |
| *** harryl has joined #maemo | 15:20 | |
| lbt | gotta go for a bit (wife had an op on friday and needs some tlc... + a cup of tea) back l8r | 15:21 |
| lcuk | scaling is easy, before i had the graffiti wall i had the sketches all scaling in response to user touch | 15:21 |
| lcuk | alright lbt :) nice to chat | 15:21 |

| aquatix | i program php ;) | 15:24 |

| rm_you | heh | 15:27 |
| rm_you | I do VB for work :P | 15:27 |

| * aquatix did java for work for years | 15:27 | |
| * rm_you would love to do Java for work <_< | 15:27 | |
| rm_you | Java is a language I can actually DO things in | 15:27 |
| aquatix | ghehe | 15:27 |
| rm_you | I hate C so much | 15:28 |
| rm_you | and the more I use it and get used to it, the more I hate it | 15:28 |
| lcuk | can do anything in vb that i can do in any other language | 15:28 |
| rm_you | lcuk: besides be cross-platform compatible <_< | 15:28 |
| lcuk | and its got runtime type information so i can do more than i can do with c | 15:28 |
| rm_you | unless you're in .NET and make sure you only use libs that work in Mono | 15:28 |
| lcuk | up until 6 months ago that wasnt a consideration | 15:28 |
| aquatix | lcuk: i absolutely positively hate the VB syntax | 15:29 |
| * lcuk spits on .net and then throws it into the bin | 15:29 | |
| rm_you | I thought .net was supposed to be cool :/ | 15:29 |
| *** Zic_ has joined #maemo | 15:29 | |

| lcuk | they go on about how awesome it is until they come across one of the many bugs in the interface | 15:30 |
| rm_you | nah | 15:30 |
| rm_you | they prolly thing they're features | 15:30 |

| aquatix | rm_you: yeah, never could wrap my head around that concept | 15:31 |
| rm_you | they try to make me jealous of their MSDN subscriptions | 15:32 |
| aquatix | hahahahaha | 15:32 |
| lcuk | rm_you, do your friends write large projects in .net? | 15:32 |
| rm_you | and then i remind them I would rather shoot myself than run any of the software in there | 15:32 |
| lcuk | MSDN and the whole .net documentation took a massive step backwards - it used to be that i could press f1 and get proper context sensitive help | 15:32 |
| rm_you | lcuk: no, they spend most of their time being bill gates wannabes | 15:32 |
| rm_you | fortunately I can only think of two of them | 15:33 |
| rm_you | I do also have sane friends :) | 15:33 |

| lcuk | ;) | 15:34 |
| rm_you | it's this easy... create garage project... svn checkout... copy all of your source in... svn add *; svn commit | 15:35 |

| lcuk | now that would be worthwhile :) | 15:38 |
| rm_you | yeah | 15:38 |
| rm_you | so release your code :P | 15:38 |
| lcuk | and that doesnt intefere with the other side of what i want to do | 15:39 |
| * rm_you has been waiting for at least a week | 15:39 | |
| lcuk | but ive got a metric shitload of code to write today thats not c | 15:39 |

| lcuk | since lastweek you realised its been your lifelong ambition to write a pdf reader .. | 15:40 |
| rm_you | lcuk: it took me a little bit to get used to "release early, often".... | 15:40 |
| rm_you | so get used to it | 15:40 |

| rm_you | back when people were willing to accept sub-optimal software because they had no other choice? >_> | 15:42 |
| * rm_you doesn't miss that | 15:42 | |
| lcuk | i dont think apples software is suboptimal | 15:43 |
| lcuk | wheres the code for most of that? | 15:43 |
| rm_you | ooooooooooooo | 15:43 |
| lcuk | or photoshops? | 15:43 |
| rm_you | do NOT get me started on Apple | 15:43 |
| lcuk | or any one of thousands of software products in use worldwide right now | 15:43 |
| rm_you | photoshop is great... but locked to windoze and mac, when it could easily be cross-platform | 15:43 |
| lcuk | autocad? | 15:43 |
| rm_you | Mac is already halfway there | 15:43 |
| rm_you | same with autocad | 15:44 |
| lcuk | why should any of these companies open up the code, it does not get them anywhere just yet | 15:44 |
| rm_you | not saying THEY should, just pointing out how the software has problems that people who care (like me and many others) could work on and fix | 15:45 |
| rm_you | are you planning to use this application to make a living? >_> | 15:46 |
| lcuk | i agree entirely, but (lets look closer to home) do nokia listen and update and change and fix their software? | 15:46 |
| rm_you | not really | 15:46 |
| rm_you | at least, not enough | 15:46 |
| rm_you | I thoroughly believe all of ITOS should be open | 15:46 |
| rm_you | ITOS isn't what they're profiting from anyway, they sell the hardware | 15:47 |
| rm_you | so what is the point of keeping the software closed? >_> | 15:47 |
| rm_you | if people can improve the software, thereby making their hardware more desirable, wouldn't that put them in a better position? | 15:48 |
| rm_you | it irks me DAILY that so much of their code is still closed :/ | 15:48 |
| lcuk | thats because you are usign a feature that is closed (for whatever stupid reason) | 15:49 |
| rm_you | s/DAILY/HOURLY/ | 15:49 |
| infobot | rm_you meant: it irks me HOURLY that so much of their code is still closed :/ | 15:49 |
| rm_you | s/DAILY/CONSTANTLY/ | 15:49 |
| infobot | rm_you meant: it irks me CONSTANTLY that so much of their code is still closed :/ | 15:49 |
| rm_you | it would still be aggrivating, though admittedly not quite as immediately so, if the closed code in question weren't directly impeding the development of my own app, yes | 15:50 |
| rm_you | wow, that was a very long and horribly structured sentence | 15:50 |
| *** Zic_ has quit IRC | 15:52 | |
| lcuk | you are replicating functionality which has been chosen to be closed, im more frustrated by lack of binary | 15:52 |
| *** Tuco has joined #maemo | 15:53 | |
| lcuk | if i were rewriting autocad i could not expect nor push for the source for it because i know its closed | 15:53 |
| lcuk | but that would not exactly prevent me from making a cad program | 15:54 |
| *** VimS has joined #maemo | 15:54 | |
| rm_you | it would if the cad program had to interface with a cad server somewhere due to hardware constraints, and that server was also closed source >_< | 15:54 |
| lcuk | but if the interface was documented would it matter about the source? | 15:57 |
| rm_you | yes, if there were features you needed that didn't exist in the server and you needed to add them :) | 15:57 |
| lcuk | (like you have all the interface specs for dmse and gtk and everything) | 15:57 |
| rm_you | pft | 15:57 |
| rm_you | the specs we have for dsme are useless | 15:57 |
| rm_you | and for the Hildon GTK stuff | 15:58 |
| lcuk | then you would be making a none standard server which the original program couldnt use | 15:58 |
| rm_you | a bunch of the Hildon docs are just blank | 15:58 |
| rm_you | just additional functionality, totally backwards compatible :P | 15:58 |
| lcuk | in a critical environment can you guarantee that? | 15:59 |
| rm_you | like adding the ability to manually disable the light sensor dimming, or to change the "dimmed" light level | 15:59 |
| rm_you | yes | 15:59 |
| rm_you | extra options that aren't utilized will not interfere | 15:59 |
| rm_you | it's done with all manner of projects | 15:59 |
| lcuk | are you sure, the levels might be fixed in hardware and without being a fully trained engineer may end up shorting something out and setting fire to your pocket | 15:59 |
| rm_you | you only run into problems if you REMOVE functionality, or change existing functions | 15:59 |
| lcuk | its the same with the battery charging stuff people keep talking about | 15:59 |
| rm_you | it's most definitely in software >_> | 16:00 |
| rm_you | if the source was open i could prove it :P | 16:00 |
| *** eton has joined #maemo | 16:00 | |
| rm_you | and if it was in hardware, the source would prove that too | 16:00 |
| lcuk | what i mean is the limits to the software might be there because communication with the hardware people let them know those limits | 16:00 |
| rm_you | so i would know not to mess with it | 16:00 |
| lcuk | what if those limits change iwth different hardware revisions (new supplier etc) could you be certain the software supplied by you fits all | 16:01 |
| rm_you | i'll assume we're talking theoretically? | 16:02 |
| lcuk | of course | 16:02 |
| rm_you | because I *know* it's in software :P | 16:02 |
| lcuk | yes, just like its possible in software to set various things which screw up the display scanlines and stuff - its entirely possible with your software to render the device unusable | 16:03 |
| rm_you | if it didn't work with all hardware, then any good maintainer would reject those patches | 16:03 |
| lcuk | do you have hardware for all revisions of n8x0? | 16:03 |
| rm_you | i *know* it's in software, because fanoush's custom kernels let us bypass DSME for that stuff and do it manually :) | 16:03 |
| rm_you | no, but before I release I make sure it has been tested on all of the hardware :) | 16:04 |
| lcuk | but nokia have not sanctioned any of those - a user has to change their kernel to do so - which an average joe would do about as often as they replace windows with linux | 16:04 |
| rm_you | right | 16:04 |
| rm_you | which is why one upstream patch to DSME would be a much better solution | 16:05 |
| rm_you | which is why i want the source open in the first place :P | 16:05 |
| lcuk | but you have the dmse flags to set, however you write your interface is up to you surely? | 16:05 |
| rm_you | not enough | 16:05 |
| rm_you | DSME doesn't support setting custom dim levels | 16:06 |
| rm_you | or turning off the lightmeter dimming | 16:06 |
| rm_you | but those flags would be easily addable | 16:06 |
| rm_you | if the source were open | 16:06 |
| rm_you | they just didn | 16:06 |
| rm_you | they just didn't include the proper controls in the dsme interface | 16:06 |
| rm_you | http://pastebin.org/45350 | 16:07 |
| rm_you | can change the dim timeout, but not what the dim brightness level is | 16:08 |
| rm_you | and no way to deal at all with the light sensor dimming | 16:08 |
| *** m-c has quit IRC | 16:08 | |
| *** eton_ has quit IRC | 16:10 | |
| rm_you | and I know for a fact that DSME is handling those things, there just isn't a provided interface for it, because Nokia didn't think to add one, and I can't do it for them because the source is closed.... | 16:10 |
| lcuk | whats the datestamp on that dmsetest? | 16:10 |
| rm_you | all i need is --dimlevel | 16:10 |
| lcuk | is it possible they just havent yet released a later version which does | 16:10 |
| lcuk | that talks about the cover state - 770 only? | 16:10 |
| rm_you | this is on my n800 | 16:10 |
| rm_you | and is exactly the same on n810, as it is part of os2008 | 16:10 |
| lcuk | which doesnt have a sensor? | 16:11 |
| rm_you | datestamp is dec 7, 2007 | 16:11 |
| rm_you | get the output from n810, is exactly the same | 16:11 |
| rm_you | and dim level should be available on anything, even back to 770 | 16:11 |
| lcuk | i believe you :) | 16:11 |
| rm_you | you see my frustration? >_> | 16:11 |
| rm_you | if they gave me the source I could have it fixed inside the day | 16:12 |
| lcuk | so its the dmse code you want, not the backlight applet | 16:12 |
| rm_you | I want the backlight applet for a different reason | 16:12 |
| lcuk | the same dmse code which does all the talking directly to hardware | 16:12 |
| lcuk | you want to know how they do the fancy widget inside menu thing that you keep asking about | 16:13 |
| rm_you | the backlight applet contains code that somehow massages some very strange widgets into a GtkMenu >_< | 16:13 |
| lcuk | are you sure its a gtkmenu? | 16:13 |
| rm_you | not 100%... | 16:13 |
| rm_you | see: http://wiki.maemo.org/Rm_you | 16:13 |
| rm_you | "IRC with Timeless concerning GTK stuff with the sound applet:" | 16:14 |
| *** oilinki3 has joined #maemo | 16:15 | |
| lcuk | so they created their own custom menu item which essentially subclasses the basic menu item (or at least implements its interface) | 16:15 |
| rm_you | as you can see, I got lost fairly quickly in that conversation | 16:15 |
| rm_you | I think they rewrote the entire gtkmenu system | 16:16 |
| rm_you | like, their own version | 16:16 |
| rm_you | I started working on that myself | 16:16 |
| lcuk | yer its common with lots of systems | 16:16 |
| rm_you | but i don't know nearly enough about GTK | 16:16 |
| rm_you | I | 16:16 |
| jott | rm_you: the important part is the "hildon-status-bar-popup" that what i also traced when i tried to find out how to get a slider in a sb applet.. | 16:16 |
| rm_you | I'll give you $20 if you make it work :P | 16:16 |
| rm_you | jott: i'm already using that kind of container | 16:17 |
| rm_you | just can't get it to look/behave like the other applets | 16:17 |
| lcuk | rm_you, perhaps you may need to sidetrack away from maemo. have you tried looking around to see if people made active menus using gtk anywhere else | 16:17 |
| rm_you | yes | 16:18 |
| lcuk | and do you know of any | 16:18 |
| rm_you | and asked in #gtk+ a lot | 16:18 |
| rm_you | nope | 16:18 |
| rm_you | as I told timeless, people in #gtk+ told me it would require a gigantic hack | 16:18 |
| jott | the gtk menu stuff has basically to be replicated afaiu... | 16:18 |
| rm_you | yeah | 16:18 |
| *** harryl has quit IRC | 16:18 | |
| lcuk | require a hack, but not gigantic | 16:18 |
| rm_you | pretty much completely | 16:18 |
| rm_you | completely replacing GtkMenu? >_> | 16:19 |
| lcuk | menuitem? | 16:19 |
| rm_you | GtkMenu. | 16:19 |
| jott | i wonder if it's an lgpl violation on nokias side :) | 16:19 |
| rm_you | I started with just menuitem | 16:19 |
| *** Crfrodf has joined #maemo | 16:19 | |

| AStorm | Stskeeps: nope | 16:20 |
| *** jeddy3 has quit IRC | 16:20 | |
| rm_you | heh, that would be convenient :P | 16:20 |
| rm_you | well, anyway, i really need to sleep | 16:20 |
| Stskeeps | AStorm: too many right clicks is my primary concern :P | 16:20 |
| AStorm | gnustep is ugly regardless of input devices available to it | 16:20 |
| Stskeeps | meh | 16:20 |
| Stskeeps | :P | 16:20 |
| lcuk | they used the same interface - its only a user control | 16:20 |
| AStorm | Stskeeps: I'd love modified awesome 3 on the tablet | 16:20 |
| lcuk | ok rm_you :) gnite | 16:20 |
| jott | rm_you: night :) | 16:20 |
| AStorm | adapt it to work better with pens | 16:21 |
| rm_you | BUT, as a standing offer, I will give $20 to any person that submits a patch to advanced-backlight that makes it look and behave like all of the other applets | 16:21 |
| rm_you | working on getting more to that bounty, but i'm poor at the moment :) | 16:21 |
| lcuk | rm_you, before you sleep - one thing, there is an option menu which has ticks etc - if the code is open then perhaps you should look at how that differs from a normal menu item | 16:22 |
| jott | lcuk: if they gone to gtkmenu.c and took some parts of it and put it in their (closed) implementation that would be a (l)gpl violation | 16:22 |
| Stskeeps | AStorm: isn't it sortof keyboard-centric or is it actually navigatable with mouse? | 16:22 |
| lcuk | once you know how its different then you could possibly adapt to put a whole scrollbar in | 16:22 |
| rm_you | lcuk: which is that> | 16:22 |
| AStorm | Stskeeps: working on improving mouse capabilities of it | 16:23 |
| rm_you | i have been looking for 6 months for a program like that | 16:23 |
| lcuk | im not sure, but doesnt gtk have proper tick menus like any other menuing system? | 16:23 |
| rm_you | oh... yeah, that may just be built in as a type | 16:23 |
| jott | lcuk: they are all gtkmenuitems, you could write your own gtkmenuitem but afaiu the event management hinders proper mouse click propagation | 16:25 |
| jott | and apparently the #gtk folks did not know a simple solution either - so it's propbably not be THAT simple ;) | 16:26 |
| lcuk | on windows i have a program called spy++ which allows me to see the window classes used created to make anything, is anything similar available for linux/gtk? | 16:26 |
| jott | hm not reallly sure, probably only on the x11 layer... | 16:27 |
| jott | hm g-inspector | 16:27 |
| jott | but it's from 2005 :P | 16:28 |
| lcuk | G-Inspector invokes a GTK+ application and inspects its objects. It shows widgets hierarchy, properties of widgets, etc. It can blink a specific widget instance so that you can identify it. It can handle Glib objects too. | 16:28 |
| lcuk | age isnt important, good code is timeless | 16:28 |

| timely | Jaffa / lardman, https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3275 | 17:28 |
| timely | i'm confused | 17:28 |
| timely | i don't recall the urlbar ever hiding on its own | 17:28 |
| timely | unless you manually said not to show it in normal/full screen | 17:29 |
| lbt | funny that, I just replied to the mailing list saying that my machine does the same thing | 17:30 |
| lbt | as in it shows the url box | 17:30 |
| lardman | I thought it always just rescaled the window to fit in the gap left | 17:30 |
| lardman | so the url bar would be there, etc. | 17:31 |
| lbt | Hmm... | 17:32 |
| lbt | OK, so if I start the browser, and then untick Menu->view->show toolbar->Normal screen | 17:33 |
| lbt | I lose the toolbar (of course) | 17:33 |
| lbt | then clicking into a text box does not cause it to reappear | 17:33 |

| *** zap has joined #maemo | 17:34 | |
| timely | so the reporter's just very confused, right? | 17:36 |
| lbt | I think he's reporting a behaviour change between 2 versions | 17:36 |
| timely | but what change? | 17:36 |
| timely | afaik we've always behaved the same way | 17:36 |
| timely | i'm not saying that what the reporter expects wouldn't be nice, however, it's not what we've ever done, and well.. i don't know what will come in the next version, but i think it's a new ui :) | 17:37 |
| lbt | I guess he thinks that the toolbar used to 'autohide' | 17:37 |
| lbt | when the keyboard pops up | 17:37 |
| timely | afaik, it hasn't ever done that | 17:37 |

| lbt | Anyhow, much earlier today I asked: I'm having a problem with the latest sdk+ using sb2... ERROR: ld.so: object 'libsb2.so.1' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. | 17:44 |
| lbt | anyone around now know anything? | 17:44 |
| Jaffa | timely: just experimenting now | 17:45 |
| AStorm | lbt: is it n810? | 17:45 |
| AStorm | does it have working DVFS? | 17:45 |
| lbt | this is the sb2 dev environment on my desktop | 17:46 |
| AStorm | blah | 17:46 |
| lbt | It was working... | 17:46 |
| lbt | then I tried to install the gtkmm stuff | 17:46 |
| lbt | and ended up 'upgrading' to latest (3day old?) sdk+ release | 17:46 |
| lbt | then it allows the gtkmm install and fails to run anything :( | 17:47 |

| lbt | what's actually wanted? | 20:37 |
| lcuk | yer, hes after a scrollbar in a menu | 20:38 |
| lbt | OK | 20:38 |
| lcuk | so when you pop the menu open you can adjust the scrollbar - just like the volume and brightness applets | 20:38 |
| lbt | OK | 20:39 |
| lbt | can't he create a widget which is a label containing an hbox and a hscroll? | 20:39 |
| lbt | a composite? | 20:39 |
| lbt | then add that in the menu? | 20:39 |
| lcuk | im not sure of his gtk knowedge, all i know is its bugged him for ages and he has pecked at loads of things to try | 20:40 |
| lcuk | hence his bounty | 20:40 |

| pekuja_ | kkrusty, unless you have modded your device with a proper gamepad-like interface, I'd say PSP still wins | 20:59 |
| * lbt says "well, he's released the code here: https://garage.maemo.org/frs/download.php/4147/advanced-backlight_0.9-2.tar.gz so we can dig in and take a look" whilst not looking at lcuk... | 20:59 | |

| *** Kt_ has joined #maemo | 21:00 | |
| lcuk | lbt, yes we know that code doesnt work :P | 21:00 |
| kkrusty | pekuja_: you already did. the n800 crashed on a particular rom | 21:00 |
| lbt | and yet he's still released it - how brave of him :) | 21:00 |
| GeneralAntilles | Well, it does work | 21:00 |
| lcuk | no - it doesnt have the feature he wants | 21:00 |
| lbt | ah, but it's not "finished" | 21:00 |
| GeneralAntilles | The applet is perfectly functional. | 21:01 |
| *** lopz has quit IRC | 21:01 | |
| lcuk | he has implemented the changing and thats ok and lots of ppl use it, but he cant make it work | 21:01 |
| lcuk | whilst looking like the original nokia ones | 21:01 |
| lbt | which is lcuk's.... err.... "hangup" for not releasing his code :) | 21:01 |
| GeneralAntilles | It just doesn't look right and doesn't close correctly unless you tap on the taskbar or statusbar. | 21:01 |
| pekuja_ | kkrusty, :-< | 21:01 |
| GeneralAntilles | Depends on your definition of "work" | 21:01 |
| pekuja_ | kkrusty, at least Metal Slug still works, right? | 21:01 |
| GeneralAntilles | lcuk, release early, release often. | 21:01 |
| GeneralAntilles | You fail at open source. ;) | 21:02 |
| lbt | GeneralAntilles: no-one dies. | 21:02 |
| kkrusty | pekuja_: yeah that works. But some roms are blacked out during game play | 21:02 |
| lcuk | no, if i had written an applet, it would have too many options, which arent finished, would offer functionality that people would see and request of me, would do things which they arent expecting (clicking buttons perform actions that are inverse to what you would expect etc | 21:02 |
| lcuk | just because i can add a "no warranties" sticker to it does not mean i would be happy giving it to people | 21:03 |
| *** lmoura has quit IRC | 21:03 | |
| GeneralAntilles | Again, you fail at open source. ;) | 21:03 |
| lbt | lcuk: you think like a shareware bod | 21:03 |
| pekuja_ | kkrusty, hmm, the gngeo port for maemo actually has the four buttons onscreen? | 21:03 |
| pekuja_ | that's weird, although I guess it might be better than using the keyboard | 21:03 |
| *** skibur has joined #maemo | 21:04 | |
| kkrusty | pekuja_: Well it doesnt unless I leave the n800 to go into idle mode after which they appear | 21:04 |
| lbt | lcuk: your attitude is very commendable and professional for a commercial world... seriously | 21:04 |
| pekuja_ | kkrusty, ah, so it's kinda buggy then? | 21:04 |
| kkrusty | pekuja_: 'very' buggy | 21:04 |
| lbt | but it's different in the OS world... | 21:05 |
| lcuk | lbt, no its commendable for me learning from a system and finding out what works | 21:05 |
| Proteous | my cellphone has a passable dpad on it, what would be cool is a java app for it that would make is show up as a bluetooth keyboard/gamepad for my n810 so I could use it as a gamepad | 21:05 |
| pekuja_ | if you could run a DS emulator on Maemo, it'd be a pretty awesome gaming device :-P | 21:05 |
| pekuja_ | that's fantasy though, there isn't even enough screen real estate | 21:05 |
| lbt | yeah - I agree - but you put together something that looks cool - and others want to play too. That's about the size of it :) | 21:06 |
| lcuk | and i will release when im ready :) | 21:06 |
| lbt | Anyhow - wasn't meaning to nag. | 21:06 |
| lcuk | lol | 21:06 |
| lbt | I'm just waiting for an install so I can learn about the hell that is autoconf | 21:06 |
| * lcuk is wrestling with sqlite at the moment | 21:07 | |
| *** corq-FL has joined #maemo | 21:07 | |
| lcuk | well you wont get that from mine, i havent got autotools on my 810 ;) | 21:07 |
| lbt | I'm playing with scratchbox 1 now... | 21:07 |
| kkrusty | I would say that the n800 does everything badly but is better than everything else in trying to do everything | 21:07 |
| pekuja_ | Proteous, which phone model is that? | 21:07 |
| *** matt_c has joined #maemo | 21:07 | |
| GeneralAntilles | kkrusty, I would disagree. | 21:08 |
| lbt | I was starting with the packaging - then I'll write some code... | 21:08 |
| lcuk | lbt :) i couldnt handle vmware so i setup gcc on my device and can now edit and compile direct on 810 or use ssh and whichever os i want to edit | 21:08 |
| kkrusty | GeneralAntilles: I would hit you with a shovel | 21:08 |
| qwerty12_N800 | lol | 21:08 |
| GeneralAntilles | Alrighty then | 21:08 |
| lbt | no vmware needed - scratchbox uses cross-compile | 21:08 |
| lcuk | in windows? | 21:08 |
| lbt | oh | 21:08 |
| * lbt shudders. | 21:08 | |

| qwerty12_N800 | lcuk, http://i29.tinypic.com/15ht1w.jpg | 21:09 |
| lcuk | yer i saw qwerty12_N800, but why would i run xepyhr when i can run on device faster and safer in knowledge that its actual hardware | 21:10 |
| Jaffa | BTW, anyone want an Asus Eee 701? http://bleb.org/photos/show.html?id=0&album=asus-eee | 21:11 |
| pekuja_ | yes | 21:11 |
| qwerty12_N800 | lcuk, true. for me, sbox is better because it's faster and has proper coreutils etc | 21:11 |
| *** gentooer has joined #maemo | 21:11 | |
| pekuja_ | are you giving one away? ;-) | 21:11 |
| lcuk | qwerty12_N800, :) agree - for grown up compiling big established projects its essential | 21:12 |
| Jaffa | pekuja_: practically! ;-) 150ukp/190 euro/local equivalent, or it'll end up on eBay | 21:12 |
| pekuja_ | haha, ok | 21:12 |
| lcuk | 3 radishes and a packet of peanuts | 21:12 |
| Jaffa | lcuk: meet you at 140ukp and a packet of peanuts | 21:13 |
| lcuk | lol, what you replacing it with | 21:13 |
| pekuja_ | how about chili peanuts? | 21:13 |
| aquatix | hm, 701 | 21:13 |
| pekuja_ | anyways, I'm probably still waiting for Eee 901 | 21:14 |
| aquatix | 901 s really nice, but more expensive than 190 euro :) | 21:14 |
| pekuja_ | yep | 21:14 |
| qwerty12_N800 | A packet of weed with nothing on top, should cover it. | 21:14 |
| Jaffa | lcuk: nothing much really. Getting a better laptop from work, and I'm not using it much. Shame to see a gadget go to waste, and it was primarily bought as a stopgap before my N810 arrived. | 21:14 |
| pekuja_ | I wonder how much it'll be. I've heard it might be as low as 400 euro | 21:14 |
| vegai | I'm looking for the Acer Aspire One... | 21:14 |
| aquatix | 701 is with atom? | 21:15 |

| pekuja_ | ShadowJK, 2 hours? maybe Jaffa can confirm this... | 21:33 |
| aquatix | 701 is a big n810 :) | 21:33 |
| forge | Should be much higher | 21:33 |
| forge | I think 701 has ~4h or so battery life | 21:34 |

| * aquatix doesn't type fast on his n810 | 22:12 | |
| * Proteous gives aquatix more caffine | 22:12 | |
| Po84 | what IRC client you using? | 22:12 |
| Proteous | sirc | 22:13 |
| aquatix | irssi | 22:13 |
| Proteous | er, yeah, that one | 22:13 |
| Proteous | irssi | 22:13 |
| Po84 | mind you IRC on N800 sucks because you have to eitehr use the stylus or the full screen keyboard | 22:13 |
| Proteous | but on the n810 isn't like butta | 22:13 |
| Proteous | er | 22:13 |
| Proteous | man, I can't type | 22:13 |
| Proteous | on the n810 it's great | 22:13 |
| GeneralAntilles | Meh, IRC is fine for me on the N800. | 22:13 |
| Po84 | yeah | 22:13 |
| aquatix | that's why i have an n810 ;) | 22:14 |
| Proteous | the ctrl being on only one side of the n810 keypad and the lack of an alt key makes screen and irssi a little annoying, but it's not too bad | 22:15 |
| aquatix | hm, wifi dropped out | 22:15 |
| aquatix | true | 22:15 |
| aquatix | ctrl+p/n is my friend | 22:15 |
| Proteous | yeah | 22:15 |
| aquatix | and esc+p/n | 22:15 |
| lbt | Me, I like my dual 24" widescreens and a full size keyboard... | 22:15 |
| lbt | size matters | 22:16 |
| aquatix | heheh | 22:16 |
| aquatix | i like my 30'' | 22:16 |
| Proteous | also, since they made the number pad only accessable by using the func key, why didn't they just put the numbers in a npad layout on the right side of the keyboard | 22:16 |
| *** b0unc3 has quit IRC | 22:16 | |
| *** krau has joined #maemo | 22:16 | |
| aquatix | indeed does :P | 22:16 |
| aquatix | Proteous: i think the layout is quite ok | 22:16 |
| *** b0unc3 has joined #maemo | 22:17 | |
| Proteous | typing numbers would have been easier if I could hold down the func key with my left thumb and type the numbers with my right thumb | 22:17 |
| Proteous | which I can't really due since half the numbers are on the left side | 22:17 |
| Proteous | but, I like having a hardware keyboard much better then the on screen one | 22:18 |
| jott | Proteous: you could always define your own custom mapping :) | 22:18 |
| Proteous | and repaint the keyboard maybe | 22:19 |
| Proteous | heh | 22:19 |
| jott | yeah just use a permanent marker | 22:19 |
| Po84 | I was thinking about buying a neat little USB keyboard I saw in maplin but it was ?20. Slightly too much | 22:19 |
| aquatix | Proteous: hm, true | 22:19 |

| Po84 | yeah I thought so when I saw it. I only have an ancient 1st gen ipod else I'd have been all over that | 22:29 |
| GeneralAntilles | Just get a Wiimote to go with your NIT for emulators. | 22:29 |
| Po84 | yeah I saw that. not tried it yet | 22:30 |
| GeneralAntilles | I know Navi does it that way. | 22:30 |
| Proteous | that was a neat hack, but a wiimote is too large | 22:30 |
| Po84 | I paired a wiimote with my imac once and for some reason i behaved screwey when I tried to re-pair to the wii | 22:30 |
| Proteous | well, not as portable as I'd like | 22:30 |
| GeneralAntilles | Smaller than an NES controller. | 22:30 |

| GeneralAntilles | It'd be nice if they would keep the N800's formfactor and clone all the buttons over to the right side. | 22:34 |
| GeneralAntilles | Just think what you could do with twice the buttons! :D | 22:35 |

| glass | but it not being great for gaming matters and lacking buttons on the other side of screen does | 22:36 |
| Po84 | some sort of N800 adaptor that fits around the screen and turns it into a handheld game with a few more buttons | 22:36 |
| GeneralAntilles | They make one for phones. | 22:36 |

| lcuk_ | ImMelody, hi, i dunno, firewall issues or refreshes or something like that? | 22:57 |
| ImMelody | Well, I can go to the shares if I manually input the IP | 22:58 |
| ImMelody | except for the printer share..which I can't see altogether | 22:58 |

| lbt | OK - real quick - what's the best pdf reader for the n800? | 23:03 |
| *** zwnj has joined #maemo | 23:04 | |
| GeneralAntilles | Depends | 23:04 |
| GeneralAntilles | But most people like Evince | 23:05 |
| * Jaffa 's first little Vala program is working in Scratchbox. Woohoo *cough* | 23:05 | |
| lbt | ok ta :) | 23:05 |
| lopz | bye | 23:06 |
| * GeneralAntilles gives Jaffa a cookie. | 23:06 | |
| *** lopz has quit IRC | 23:06 | |
| Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: it displays two labels: one containing a big "dd:hh:MM:ss", the other a smaller ".cc" | 23:06 |
| lbt | Jaffa: cool - I just got my first gtkmm running :) - the pdf reader is for the pdf here http://www.gtkmm.org/documentation.shtml | 23:06 |
| *** b0unc3_ has quit IRC | 23:06 | |
| lbt | l8r all :) | 23:06 |
| * Jaffa wants a totally power mgmt compliant countdown timer app to a specified time or for a given duration. | 23:07 | |
| Jaffa | But I dispair at Gtk+'s documentation (which is fine, once you find the bit you need), and Vala's current "look at the Gtk+ docs and try and work out the name of something using this naming convention" approach to API docs. | 23:07 |
| GeneralAntilles | I was thinking about filing an enhancement request to have Extras shipped enabled. | 23:07 |
| GeneralAntilles | Anybody else think that's a largely pointless idea? | 23:08 |
| Jaffa | Indeed. I assume you've just seen my comment on the talk page? | 23:08 |
| GeneralAntilles | Yes | 23:08 |
| dieman | im guessing theres no chance on extras shipped enabled | 23:08 |
| Jaffa | I'd vote for it. | 23:08 |
| dieman | theres too much stuff in extras with insanely rough edges | 23:08 |
| Jaffa | dieman: I'd like to see a categorical statement from Nokia though, and why. The "legal responsibility" answer I'd expect is a little thin | 23:09 |
| Toba_ | excuse my poor knowledge | 23:09 |
| Toba_ | but what is extras shipping? | 23:09 |
| Jaffa | dieman: that's a QA problem, if that's a stumbling block we can find ways of fixing that (that are on the radar anyway) | 23:09 |
| dieman | i think if there was an extras-super-shiny catalog | 23:09 |
| dieman | it'd be really cool. | 23:09 |
| dieman | stuff that you'd be ok having your dad happen to find and install | 23:09 |
| dieman | on his tablet | 23:09 |
| Toba_ | oh | 23:09 |
| dieman | [my dad is a use case because he went out and bought one] | 23:09 |
| juergbi | Jaffa: maybe this helps in addition to the gtk documentation, http://www.vala-project.org/doc/docu/gtk+-2.0.vapi/index.html | 23:10 |
| dieman | [so honestly, this isn't hypothetical for me] | 23:10 |
| juergbi | Jaffa: we want a complete documentation of the bindings in the end, of course | 23:10 |
| sjgadsby | dieman: Mine too. | 23:10 |
| GeneralAntilles | Part of it, for me, is that even though it ships on the device 99% of users wont find it and enable it without help. | 23:10 |
| Jaffa | Toba_: the extras repository is an "application catalog" (sic) containing lots of third party extra applications. The Application Manager ships with it configured, but disabled, and so the user has to go and explicitly tick a hidden checkbox to see a whole bunch of extra applications which could value-add their tablet experience. | 23:10 |
| Toba_ | oh, so stable software that isn't completely old and boring? | 23:10 |
| Toba_ | I use it, but you mean 'shipping' as in 'working when you get it' | 23:11 |
| GeneralAntilles | and a lot of the questions I see popping up these days can be solved by shipping it enabled | 23:11 |
| Jaffa | juergbi: cool, ta. I should've looked at the Vala website a bit better (which, sitting as it does within gnome.org's overall layout is a little hard to navigate without lots of back-button pressing) | 23:11 |
| GeneralAntilles | or making it easier for the user to find their way to enabling it. | 23:11 |
| dieman | Jaffa: if anything, point to Ubuntu's decision to enable universe as a shipped option | 23:11 |
| Jaffa | dieman: but they've got a whole raft of s/w available out-of-the box so that's an argument in favour. It's just good quality, QA-ed software. If we had an extras QA process, we could enable extras on shipped devices (I say "we", I mean Nokia) | 23:12 |
| Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: agreed 100% | 23:12 |
| *** acydlord has joined #maemo | 23:12 | |
| juergbi | Jaffa: yes, a properly strcutured website is also on the plan ;) | 23:12 |
| GeneralAntilles | This would be another possible approach: http://wiki.maemo.org/User:GeneralAntilles/Improving_the_Application_manager#New_buttons | 23:13 |
| lcuk_ | jaffa, dont most users find "extras" switched on after their first visit to maemo.org website and clicking one of the many .install files on the games list? | 23:13 |
| Jaffa | juergbi: one thing you might be able to answer, I want to add a timer (which I can enable/disable on certain DBUS events). The tutorial shows doing it in a GLib mainloop, but I'd expect to see Gtk.timeout_add()... but don't (not even a grep of the vapi files turns it up) | 23:14 |
| GeneralAntilles | lcuk_, I doubt MOST users find their way to maemo.org | 23:14 |
| dieman | anyhow | 23:14 |
| dieman | must go | 23:14 |
| Jaffa | lcuk_: I think you're over-estimating the experience of the "average" (i.e. median, or mode) user. | 23:14 |
| Jaffa | Especially if, when we get to step 5, it's a consumer device and OS which will be available through, say, high-street stores like Argos, Woolworths or various local equivalents. | 23:15 |
| *** b0unc3 has joined #maemo | 23:15 | |
| rm_you | morning.... | 23:15 |
| aquatix | hey you | 23:15 |
| juergbi | Jaffa: gtk_timeout_add is deprecated for quite some time. Gtk.main () uses a normal GLib main loop, so you can use GLib.Timeout.add() | 23:15 |
| Jaffa | juergbi: ah, fair enough. Not done enough Gtk development recently. | 23:16 |
| juergbi | (feel free to join #vala on gimpnet) | 23:16 |
| Jaffa | Ta. | 23:16 |
| juergbi | yw | 23:16 |
| Jaffa | Cuppa first. Then some TV. Then trying to get an early night so may try and resist a late-night hacking session. Want to kick some donkey on my first day back at work tomorrow in 2 weeks :-) | 23:17 |
| sjgadsby | Give a Yes/No option to enable extras--along with the standard, Nokia "this may eat your tablet" disclaimer--as part of initial setup. | 23:17 |
| GeneralAntilles | sjgadsby, that's an option. | 23:17 |
| GeneralAntilles | Part of the tutorial home applet, maybe? | 23:17 |
| Jaffa | sjgadsby: nice idea, especially if it included the option to never show the "eat your tablet" warning again. Or hell, even if it did. | 23:17 |
| sjgadsby | Or upon first opening of app manager. | 23:17 |
| Jaffa | I like it as part of initial setup. You've done date/time, phone, Internet access. Third party apps are a crucial part of the maemo vision, AIUI. | 23:18 |
| *** pleemans has quit IRC | 23:18 | |
| GeneralAntilles | Alright, I guess I'll put this together as a sort of meta bug. | 23:18 |
| *** b0unc3_ has joined #maemo | 23:20 | |
| lcuk_ | what i find strange is: from the default tableteer page they are heavily pushing numptyphysics - following default instructions takes you to a garage page.. | 23:22 |

| *** fuelfive has quit IRC | 23:23 | |
| lcuk_ | maemomapper links take you to maemo.org and a .install file | 23:24 |
| lcuk_ | isnt this tableteer link the first and only thing on your desktop at install time? | 23:24 |
| GeneralAntilles | Default desktop: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6c/Itos_2008_desktop.jpg | 23:24 |
| lcuk_ | whats streamtuner? i had tableteer | 23:25 |
| GeneralAntilles | It rotates. | 23:25 |
| lcuk_ | you sure? mine only ever showed 1 | 23:25 |
| lcuk_ | "web shortcut" has 1 image and 1 web address | 23:26 |
| GeneralAntilles | Yes, I'm quite sure. | 23:26 |
| *** b0unc3__ has quit IRC | 23:27 | |
| lcuk_ | hmmm, did you update to the strange 50.3 thing that noone knew what was different on it was? | 23:28 |
| GeneralAntilles | 51-3 was just the NOLO upgrade. | 23:28 |
| lcuk_ | go into the settings of your "web shortcut" applet - how does it get a list of things to view? how does it change the images? | 23:29 |
| GeneralAntilles | OK, whatever, it doesn't rotate. | 23:29 |
| GeneralAntilles | I don't care right now. :P | 23:29 |
| GeneralAntilles | Just let me write up this bug. | 23:29 |
