zenvoidStskeeps: of course no objections! just modify it as you want00:10
Stskeepswazd_hp: any objections against using liberty theme instead of titan for now? ;)00:11
Stskeeps(http://zenvoid.org/tmp/screenshot1.png)00:11
wazd_hpStskeeps: why would I object?)00:11
Stskeepswazd_hp: hehe00:11
Stskeepsi just think it's nice to ask :P pretty darn easy to end up stepping on people's toes once in a while00:12
wazd_hpStskeeps: wait... WHAT?!00:12
wazd_hpStskeeps: :P00:12
Stskeeps.. :P~00:12
*** lardman has joined #maemo00:13
*** lardman_ has quit IRC00:13
wazd_hpNokia's widget contest is totally lame00:13
RST38hwazd: still no response from them?00:15
zenvoidStskeeps: with Mer background it will probably look better with more transparency in panels, as it I've made it for light backgrounds. I'll try to adjust it a bit for next version00:15
zenvoidStskeeps: BTW, about your question for CC 2.5 in Debian: http://evan.prodromou.name/ccsummary/ccsummary.html00:16
wazd_hpRST38h: yep00:17
zenvoidStskeeps: "debian-legal contributors think that works licensed solely under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 license [BY] are not free according to the DFSG and should not be included in Debian."00:17
Stskeepszenvoid: oh boy, my favourite place, debian-legal00:17
*** bef0rd has quit IRC00:17
zenvoidStskeeps: hahaha00:17
*** gnutonio has quit IRC00:17
zenvoidStskeeps: I've been involved in several flames there00:19
Stskeepszenvoid: google stskeeps debian-legal  and google debian-legal unrealircd   sometime00:20
*** lardman_ has joined #maemo00:20
zenvoidStskeeps: I will ;-)00:20
*** gnuton has joined #maemo00:21
Stskeepswhich pretty much highlights my attitudes towards that place00:21
Stskeeps:P00:21
*** lardman_ has quit IRC00:22
zenvoidStskeeps: they were worried by minor things with licenses, and totally happy to include artwork from *unknown places* located using a google image search00:22
Stskeepshehe00:23
zenvoidStskeeps: ... unknown authors, unkown copyright status...00:23
zenvoidStskeeps: so I was angy, better don't search my thear, please00:23
zenvoid*thread00:23
zenvoid:-)00:23
Stskeepsi just usually get suspicious if stuff looks pretty ;)00:23
Stskeepsi still occasionally think to make my mer stuff beerware00:24
Stskeepsthat'll be a blast eventually00:24
Stskeeps:P00:24
*** lardman has quit IRC00:25
*** lardman has joined #maemo00:25
Stskeepszenvoid: got that gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks package?00:27
Stskeepsas in, source package00:27
Stskeeps(what version is it, btw?)00:27
zenvoidStskeeps: I got suspicious when the readme file says "artwork taken from google search) and no authors for sound/music/icons/graphics are not mentioned in the copyright file00:28
Stskeepshehe00:28
zenvoidStskeeps: then I've found a lot of copyright strings doing grep /usr/share, and a lot of packages with artwork used without permision, and the fame started when I mass filed bugs00:29
zenvoid*flame00:29
zenvoidso CC 2.5 is not free, but those packages with artwork used without permission are OK00:30
*** ciroip has joined #maemo00:31
zenvoidStskeeps: I have here ubuntulooks 0.9.12-12 sightly patched. It is probably obsolete now00:33

wazdIf it's possible00:42
Stskeepswazd_hp: boots in about 21 seconds00:43
Stskeepson x8600:43
Stskeeps(unoptimized900:43
Stskeepsalso it's like 500mb installed on x86 :P00:43
Stskeepsbesides that, maybe00:43
* b-man is irritated, gdm is not starting in ubuntu again :(00:44
b-manand i do have fb_update_mode auto in /etc/rc.locale00:45
qwerty12_N800zenvoid, when using upstart in your chinook fork, did your tablet hang when shutting down? (I'm guessing not...)00:45
Stskeepswho shuts down their tablets? ;)00:45
* qwerty12_N800 does00:45
* b-man when traveling00:46
zenvoidqwerty12_N800: no, it works much better than the original maemo :P00:47
*** wazd_hp has quit IRC00:47
*** ciroip1 has quit IRC00:47
zenvoidqwerty12_N800: I have custom startup/shutdown scripts. Ok, I'll dig into my archives and publish everything I think scould be useful, just give me a day or two00:48
*** Zic has joined #maemo00:48
qwerty12_N800zenvoid, hehe00:48

*** `Mace has joined #maemo00:49
b-manStskeeps: shuld i just remove /sbin/fb_update_mode auto from /etc/rc.local?00:50
b-manoh, no00:50

* b-man trys without fb_update_mode auto00:51
*** Grackle has quit IRC00:52
*** b-man has quit IRC00:52
zenvoid... and also pached busybox to add an option to rmdir required by the postinstall scripts in some packages, it was applied upstream so probably is included in current busybox...00:52
zenvoidi really don't remember the things I've done, but there was a lot of changes00:52
Stskeepsi still dont regret not going for busybox00:53
Stskeepshaving a sane unix system is so much better00:53
zenvoidStskeeps: agree00:53
* qwerty12_N800 hates bb, it belongs on routers & similar. Not tablets00:54
qwerty12_N800Stskeeps, is bash the default shell?00:55
Stskeepsdash00:55
qwerty12_N800damn00:55
Stskeepsas in /bin/sh00:55
Stskeepsbash is too fucking slow00:55
zenvoidStskeeps: boot time may be better with bb, but I *think* it won't be any difference if using /bin/dash00:55
Stskeepsi think the user shell is bash though00:55
Stskeepsnot sure how johnx set it up00:55
qwerty12_N800Stskeeps, wicked, that's the answer i'm looking for :)00:55
zenvoiddash can be used for system scripts and bash for user shell, I think it is the default in ubuntu00:56
* qwerty12_N800 set up bash-completion in maemo again. He remembers what he was missing when he typed mpc <tab> and saw mpc's options00:56
qwerty12_N800yep00:56

*** Omegamoon has left #maemo02:04
Stskeepswazd: do i understand it right that to switch to another application, you need to tap two times?02:05
Stskeepsfirst on mer, then on the app switcher, then on the app?02:05
*** lele has joined #maemo02:05
*** inz has joined #maemo02:05

Stskeepswazd: i thought the sidebar popped down when clicking mer02:06
*** sibbe has joined #maemo02:06
wazdStskeeps: there's quick switcher on top02:06
wazdnext to Mer02:06
Stskeepsah02:06
Stskeepswazd: my idea would be that you put two-windows icon on top instead, and fold out the larger list automatically02:07
*** bergwolf has joined #maemo02:07
Stskeepsso it's two taps when we want more apps than in quick switcher02:07
Stskeepsif anyone wants to start an app, three taps02:07
wazdStskeeps: too complicated I think02:07
Stskeepsmm02:07
wazdStskeeps: You'll need app launcher more often than large switcher02:08

yigalI have an 8gb card.  I want to use it 1. for maemo, 2. for some debian chroot, and 3. for maemo mapper any advice on how to partition it?  I have a 1gb card to go with it for a total of 9gb + .5gb internal - I'm on an n800 with an external gps05:51
*** ciroip has quit IRC05:52
b-manyou will have to use sfdisk to partition it, hold on, i'll post an example05:54
yigalb-man: I have an example from http://wiki.maemo.org/Partitioning_a_flash_card05:55
LostIconsIs there a way to do a system reload without having to reload the OS?05:56
LostIconsI bought mine used and I'm unsure what is factory and what is the previous owners changes.05:56
LostIconsMy unit has odd partitioning or I'm just unfamiliar with how it shows it.05:57
b-manyigal: ok, how many partitions are you going to use and how big are thay?05:57
yigalb-man: I think this is where I need help, 1. how many partitions would be good05:58
yigal?05:58
yigalshould I put the chroot on its own chroot?05:58
yigalexcuse me chroot on its own partition :)05:58
b-man2, i'd suggest, 1 for debian and 1 for the other stuff05:59
yigalmaemo mapper on its own partition, or just do a dumb large partition for everything05:59
yigalcool05:59
yigalb-man: I'm thinking of just using easy debian unless there's an advantage rolling my own?06:00
b-manremember to make the first fat16 and the other linux83 for debian ;)06:00
yigalb-man: right06:00

b-manalso, as an example, you can use ,500,C for a 500mb fat 32 partition and ,500,L for linux83 ;)06:05
b-mansweet06:05
yigalb-man: I can partition on my laptop correct?06:06
yigals/can/could06:06
yigalb-man: or is the idea to do everything on the n8x0 :)06:07
b-manyou can, but i'm not shurehow (i use my tablet exclusively untill i eventually get my Dell Studio 15)06:08
b-manyou can do everything on the tablet ;)06:08
yigalb-man, if I had a working keyboard for it I would also, until then it's ssh then06:08
yigalb-man: I know that is why I have one06:09
b-manhehe06:09
b-manyou can partition it from the terminal, you don't need ssh btw ;)06:10
yigalb-man: it's the typing bit, that's all, maybe it would be good for practice, you're probably right06:10
b-man(useful if you do a lot of software testing like me) ;)06:12
* b-man maintains the ubuntu jaunty for N8x0's project and am the maintainer for the installer for the mer project06:13

*** hellwolf-n810 has quit IRC13:36
lcukis it the rootfs that controls the usb update?13:36
qwerty12nope, nolo13:36
lcukcan i update that from inside the device itself?13:37
qwerty12lcuk, don't think this is a flasher problem but have you tried "If you are running a newer kernel and you get "Suitable USB device not found, waiting" but nothing happens when you switch on the 770 as instructed above, try to patch the flasher: perl -pi -e 's-/proc/bus/usb-/dev/bus/usb\000-;' -i.backup $FLASHER, where $FLASHER is the location of your flasher 2.0 linux binary. This applies also for flasher-3.0. "13:37
lcukincase its that that is corrupt13:37
qwerty12lcuk, *very* risky13:37
lcukyeah i tried that13:37

lcuki was doing a whole lot of usb snooping on the x41 and it wasnt even detected13:37
Meiz_n810lcuk, install mer, boot into it, kick os08 rooft into flash chroot to install latest kernel... etc :P13:37
lcukStskeeps, no device detected13:38
lcukbut when the OS was installed it detected ok13:38
lcukos was booted up to desktop ^13:38
Meiz_n810There was another guy having similar problems with n800, he called nokia and they said it cannot be upgraded anymore13:38
Meiz_n810on itT13:38
Stskeepslcuk: the way i do it is turn off device completely, connect usb to computer, then start flasher, and then insert charger13:38
Stskeepswhich never seems to fail for me :P13:39
lcukits just frustrating cos i wanna test forward camera (the main reason why its here)13:39
johnx_also, I have seen hubs and cables that are honestly borderline13:39
lcukStskeeps, no charger involved, 100% full battery, doing as you say (including a battery pop to ensure its switched off completely first) and holding correct button gets me the USB icon holding on screen.13:40
lcukit is simply not detected at all13:40
lcukand as soon as i unplug the USB cable itself the usb icon goes away and it boots to os13:40
lcukand when i replug the cable its detected and working as a disk13:40

johnx_GeneralAntilles, if you're telling me, I know. s_tracker/_tracker based _14:45
wazdthat's what I want14:46
GeneralAntillesjohnx_, I was telling lcuk, but I may just be confusing things.14:46
* GeneralAntilles goes and stands over by Stskeeps.14:46
opengeekv2sorry wawz i forgott it14:46
* lcuk hands out bacon butties14:46
* johnx_ thinks the answer is a key combo14:46
johnx_fn+space or ctrl+space seems to work well IME14:47
GeneralAntillesNot on an N800.14:47
* wazd tells nokia widget contest: screw you guys, I'm going home14:47
lcuki think short menu key should step slightly back from the app and open search box as well as core menu14:47
GeneralAntilleslcuk, personally, a search isn't something I'm going to use on a mobile device.14:47
johnx_GeneralAntilles, I'd side with the statusbar people in that case14:47
GeneralAntillesText input is slow14:47
GeneralAntillesand there are usually a finite number of things I'd actually want to lay hands on.14:48
johnx_*waves hands* how about ... both?14:48
GeneralAntillesSo I'd rather it not be taking up space in my application menu.14:48
lcukGeneralAntilles, depends what you are searching for, and if it compliments the existing selection UI quickly and smoothly just because YOU wont use it doesnt mean others wont14:48
qwerty12_N800johnx_, it should be a good one. there's complaints about the current combo used to bring up search in maemo14:48
lcukjohnx_, :) my point exactly14:48
GeneralAntillesjohnx_, using Nokia's software has long since forced out that possibility when considering options. :P14:48
wazdSearch is not such necessary function to have dedicated space in mer menu14:48
GeneralAntilleslcuk, just because YOU will, doesn't mean others wont. :P14:49
wazdTotally14:49
lcukits like the whole scrollbars or kinetic lists and key combos - why not have all14:49
opengeekv2ok14:49
opengeekv2i understand14:49
lcukGeneralAntilles, so if its there and jworks silently theres no problem14:49
GeneralAntilleslcuk, I just don't want it taking up menu space if I don't use it.14:49
GeneralAntillesand an applet I can disable easily14:49
GeneralAntillesA search box in the menu I may not be able to.14:49
lcukno menu space used - infact when you press keys it should shorten the menus14:50
wazdMaybe we can use my "uni-input" mockup but it seems too complicated to do it roght now)14:50
* lcuk has a few things in mind14:50
lcukbut i cant  make them right now14:50
wazdlcuk: ohnonono, no combinations, please14:50
lcukdamns this scalable ui widget14:50
stv0configure: error: Your intltool is too old.  You need intltool 0.23 or later. :( any hints?14:50

lcukwazd, the qwerty keyboard is 100% idle whilst a menu is onscreen, why the hell cant i just type and filter14:51
RST38hwazd: multitouch!14:51
opengeekv2Antilles is wrigh maybe some people would not like it and an applet14:51
opengeekv2is easy to remove14:51
opengeekv2multitouch would be great14:51
lcukfor what?14:52
RST38hfor key combos14:52
wazdRST38h: moo)14:52
johnx_wazd, before I forget: current mockup looks nice. the only thing I was thinking about is that having the menu button in the center is kind of a stretch for the thumbs14:52
lcukand i can use multitouch :)14:52
lcukRST38h, Shift + something is entirely possible with the mode of multitouch i have on n8x014:52

lcukjohnx_, the thing about that menu button is that it resembles the hardware menu button on device - i personally think it looks stupid sat in the middle14:54
jkrAfter the last OS2008 update the battery lifetime of my N810 decreased rapidly - does anyone experience the same problem?14:54

johnx_jkr, besides the update have you installed any other applications recently that run in the background or run constantly?14:55
jkrBefore the update, the battery made about 10 days in idle mode - now when I fully charge it in the evening, it's down to "less than 1 hour" in the morning14:55
lcukjkr, you have a bad process or chip running which is draining14:55
jkrI din't think it's the hardware as it worked fine before the update14:56

*** pcfe has quit IRC15:20
jkrI got a new WLAN AP recently15:20
*** pcfe has joined #maemo15:20
Stskeepsjkr: PSM not on maybe15:21
jkrMaybe it somehow draws more power from the WLAN chip?15:21
johnx_jkr, entirely possible15:21
*** tbf has quit IRC15:21
johnx_the n8x0 wifi chip uses agressive powersaving modes. if those are not available it hurts battery life with WLAN a lot15:21
jkrAre there any settings on APs that are known to cause that?15:21
StskeepsWMM15:21
Stskeepsif its on, it saves power15:22
Stskeepsthere's a wiki page on it15:22
jkrI already checked the WLAN settings on the N810, the powersaving is on max., power is limited to 10mW (or whatever the lower setting of the two is)15:22
johnx_Stskeeps, they should be using your ircd...15:22
Stskeepsjohnx_: hehe. hyperion is a pos15:22
pcfeapologies for the frequent join/leave my proxy is acting up15:23
Stskeepsjohnx_: i -think- some of my code is in there though15:23
GeneralAntillesjkr, don't limit the transmit power15:24
GeneralAntillesThat can actually increase power usage in a lot of situations.15:24
GeneralAntillesjkr, the radio is only actually on for a very small fraction of the time and accounts for a small percentage of total power usage.15:24
GeneralAntillesLimiting the transmit power just means it's going to have to retransmit lost packets.15:24
jkrGeneralAntilles: But I think the 10mW was the default setting15:24
johnx_jkr, if your AP doesn't support powersaving right, then the n8x0 can't use it. it's a cooperative thing15:25
*** ttmrichter has quit IRC15:25
johnx_jkr, depends on what coutntry the n8x0 was made for15:25
johnx_US should default to 100mW15:25

jkrWell there's one "visible" setting in the configuration interface, "limit trasnmission power to the actual requirements automatically" (I hope it's correctly translated), which is active15:28
GeneralAntillesToo much padding, and the shadowing and light effects in the background kinda overpower the logo.15:28

tyborI couldn't log from an N800 to another host using ssh... it hangs after giving password... anyone got a similar issue?15:47
lcukRST38h, theres a central liqcanvas canvas;   instance which is used in the calls.  it was the very first class i wrote way back when and contains the core open close refresh cycles for the display15:47
RST38h-Bshared to the linker or -shared to GCC and you are done15:47
lcukall the code up until ~october expected this to be always available so never passed as a param15:48
RST38hlcuk: make it a global variable and initialize it in LiqInit()15:48
qwerty12_N800tybor, can you ssh from the N800 to another computer running ssh?15:49
lcuki do, but then if i run another binary using the same library that other instance will screw with it15:49
lcukand close the screen for both apps15:49
lcukwhen one app closes15:49
lcuk(example, others are more esoteric)15:49
RST38hof course it will15:49

*** mouser- has quit IRC15:50

wazddoes anyone checked if it's possible?)16:16
lcukGeneralAntilles, if people could build their apps directly from any OS by simply installing a single devpack wouldnt it help get developers in?16:16
lcuk"im a dev and i wanna write a little program to do ......."  becomes, sure just install this and start hacking.  no bother if they are in windows or linux or mac or anything16:17

tyborlcuk: it evolved into a behemoth language.... there are several oo languages that deserved c++ place but couldn't grasp it. Eiffel, D ...16:18

johnx_tybor, does D even have one open source compiler?16:19
Stslaptopjohnx_: it has a LLVM one now16:19
RST38hlcuk: except that it is too slow to compile c++, too slow to compile Vala and barely enough to compile C16:20
GeneralAntilleslcuk, I'm not sure what your argument is at this point.16:20
RST38hBut I agree that it is perfect otherwise :)16:20
lcukRST38h, its great for c, the next device will have much better performance (doesnt gan say 3x) so the other arguments go as well16:20

johnx_everything big and important is going to extras by way of a builder17:14
johnx_that means that there's a source package to work with17:14
johnx_if there's a source package a quick manual (or automatic?) run of sed to fix the versions seems and test the build seems far more sane than trying to be compatible with binary packages17:15

qwerty12_N800Jaffa, that's the pymaemo's team fault for using non standard naming17:17

qwerty12_N800WorkingOnWise, install http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/pool/diablo/free/u/util-linux/mount-full_2.12p-4sarge1.maemo1_armel.deb and use mount.full instead of mount.17:20
johnx_Jaffa, I'm not sure how it would be more flaky to mangle source packages than it would to try and keep some compatibility mapping as an apt patch (!). either way the same mapping is going into the equation, but in the case of the builder manual intervention is possible by someone watching the builder and in the case of doing it in apt users are left to sort it out17:20
johnx_WorkingOnWise, exactly what did you type?17:20
Jaffaqwerty12_N800: "standard" isn't really something meaningfull, since it's *not* (to date) been Debian/Ubuntu17:20

lcukits not just the fremantle apps that need bringing in, are there specific changes required to diablo apps to get them in?17:27
StskeepsJaffa: if Nokia can be prodded to simply take source packages, build in mer sdk, or compiling their source packages for armv5te, we're able to take it :P17:27

Stskeepsmm?19:26
opengeekv2the system sounds19:26
* ShadowJK just installed Fedora10 on a new computer: NetworkManager is still crappier than icd19:26
Stskeepsopengeekv2: hehe, feel free to give it a shot19:26
Stskeepsopengeekv2: they must be redistributable and open, that is, you have to make them yourself :)19:26
opengeekv2yes i know19:27
johnx_opengeekv2, if you see zenvoid online, you might want to talk to him. I think he was also interested. maybe you two can coordinate19:27
opengeekv2ok19:27
opengeekv2he's away19:28

JaffaGeneralAntilles: ah. /me at parents for dinner, so can't get into it too much now.19:31
Meizirkkiit took half hour to boot up live-dc in virtualbox. :P i have only 512mb of ram.19:31
opengeekv2johnx_: maybe sea souns are a good theme sound for mer19:32
StskeepsMeizirkki: i normally kill gdm as hard as i can and do it in console :P19:32
GeneralAntillesJaffa, I CCed Benson.19:32
Stskeepsjohnx_: auto-startx, could it mkdir -p /var/run/console and touch /var/run/console/$USERNAME ?19:32
johnx_Stskeeps, yes19:33
Stskeepsseems like theres a new check for "at console" so19:33
johnx_opengeekv2, that does sound pretty neat. I think zenvoid was planning to do something instrumental so that might work well together19:33
johnx_also, it seems the CWD in X11 for the user is / instead of $HOME, i'll try and sort that19:33

bensonITEM_MODULES=""      <--- problem, I think23:55
Stskeepsyeah23:55
Stskeepsbenson: dpkg -l | grep merinstaller23:55
bensonITEM_FSTYPE=""23:55
bensonAnd the rest looks sane.23:55
benson"noatime,ro", and "linuxrc"23:55
StskeepsMODULES should be mbcache jbd ext3     , fstype ext3, and ITEM_DEVICE ought to be ${INT_CARD}p2 or ${EXT_CARD}p223:56
Stskeepsjust edit it and refresh_bootmenu.d23:56
Stskeepsb-man: you seeing this? :)23:56

*** script has joined #maemo23:56
bensonStskeeps: sure, but I'm looking at the script first, try to figure what caused it.23:57
bensonso4546546: Yep, it23:57
Stskeepsso4546546: it's maemo components merged with ubuntu jaunty/arm, in an attempt to reconstruct Maemo and take a new direction to it23:57
bensonis open-source maemo on ubuntu (like he said)23:57
Stskeepsso4546546: http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer_Blueprint23:58
