ArSanot terribly00:12

ArSacompared to TFS :P00:13
zerojayWe're going to be switching from SVN to Perforce at work soon too.00:13
ArSadoesn't seem to be doing much other than SCM, but i guess it does it very well00:14
ArSa(ms used it)00:15
lcukjavispedro, those commits, let me guess, u use a hammer to actually get the build process working00:16
javispedrothat's when my NFS mounted home is so slow make takes a few minutes to just decide what to do.00:17
zerojayPerforce does a lot more than versioning.00:17

*** juliank has quit IRC01:27
qpoiI couldn't find any hands on videos with flash being demonstrated01:27
zerojayGood idea.01:27
andre__qpoi, stable. haven't tried HD though01:27
qwerty12_N810YouTube works fine, but, like Andre, I haven't tried HD01:28
andre__i'll try now01:28
zerojayme too.01:28
ShadowJKHD will be a stretch01:28
qpoiAndre__, what about flash intensive sites?01:28
ShadowJKit's 480p, I think, and the flash players is a very heavy path for video to go through01:29
Stskeepsthe real question is if porn sites work. can't sell well otherwise.01:29
zerojayI'm not running the latest firmware though. Gotta wait for Monday for that. :/01:29
javispedroI will try now too. On my 1998 laptop.01:29

* qwerty12_N810 hides01:31
zerojayYoutube's not 100% smooth, but definitely way better than on N810.01:31
Woollyneed to get to the bottom of why gstreamer wont let me capture at 5fps :(01:31
* javispedro goes back under the bridge and continues crying there :P01:31

zerojayBut again, my firmware is WAY out of date.01:32
SpeedEvilandre: Doing what though is the question01:32
SpeedEvilandre: and is minnie involved?01:32
*** jrocha has joined #maemo01:32
qwerty12_N810andre__: Oh, what a novel idea! :)01:32
qpoiabout how many fps is yt running at?01:33
andre__SpeedEvil, not allowed to tell anybody - NDA in place01:33
RST38handre: And what will Donald and Micket do?01:33
SpeedEvilAh.01:33
zerojayIt's Youtube. I don't know why you would expect any decent FPS anyways.01:33
*** eocanha has joined #maemo01:33

qwerty12_N810zerojay: Yeah, I only go there for the comments...01:33

GeneralAntillesToo bad Flash isn't accelerated.01:34
ShadowJKqwerty12_N810, you're one sick puppy01:34
qwerty12_N810Can't disagree there01:34
qpoiI'll return in a few mins01:34
javispedroqwerty12_N810: don't lie to us. half of all those comments were made by you.01:34
javispedrothe server logs don't lie.01:35
*** qpoi has quit IRC01:35
javispedroI specially like the comment you made in that donald and mickey video...01:35
ShadowJKAtleast the x86 version of flash can use HW accelerated scaling... dunno what adobe has done for N8x0 and N900 :/01:35
* javispedro notices engadget twogibibyteish video finally downloaded.01:36
javispedroShadowJK: I'd bet my fried palmt|x they've made nothing.01:37
Mouseyare n810s out of production now?01:37
javispedroeven though they have a freaking accelerator just designed for accelerating flash there, totally unused.01:38

* ShadowJK ponders trying to get mplayer compiled with VFP again01:38
javispedroShadowJK: the current one isn't ? O.o01:39
ShadowJKthe current one is so old that the vfp code in it didn't exist01:39
javispedrohow cool.01:39
ShadowJKUnfortunately maemo4 scratchbox is also so ancient that it barfs on vfp01:39
javispedroyou mean qemu/cputranps?01:40
javispedroi use fremantle one.01:40
ShadowJKI mean binutils01:40
javispedroas ?01:40

*** tbf has quit IRC02:03
*** Sargun has quit IRC02:04
javispedrocuriously enough, /me pronounces it like "mah - eh- mow", which is nowhere near the spanish pronnunciation. :P02:05
javispedro(which would be ma-eh-mo)02:05
*** lpotter has joined #maemo02:06
qwerty12_N810Now that the N900 is black, and the SDK theme too, they should just drop the first two letters and just call it "Emo"02:06
qwerty12_N810+is02:06
zerojayThese are all things I was worried about with doing a podcast. ;)02:08
*** lbt has quit IRC02:08

RST38hdull razor, too02:10
bobbydhmmm02:10
ShadowJKqwerty12_N810, memeo?02:10
* javispedro likes "Memo 5 Operating System", which literally means "The operating system for idiots"02:11
javispedro(in spanish :P)02:11
bobbydt mobile seem to be offering the n900 in the uk, but thir "fair use" policy forbids IM traffic :/02:11
WoollyI have a gtk.dialog window popup in my full screen app. is there a way I can ignore any mouse events to the screen in the background when the dialog is open?02:11
*** ArSa has joined #maemo02:11
ShadowJKbobbyd, lol what02:11
mavhcbobbyd: does it forbid ssh tunneling?02:11
dottedmagbobbyd: does it formid VPN traffic?02:12
dottedmagmavhc: :)02:12
bobbydit seems pretty restrictive02:12
bobbydmavhc: probably02:12
mavhcit's just their standard terms, can probably ignore it02:12
*** briglia has quit IRC02:12
dottedmagbobbyd: ssh on 443 port and tunnelling.02:12
*** qpoi has joined #maemo02:12
javispedroShadowJK: "memeo" sounds like "I'm pissing myself rigth now".02:12
bobbydwell not if they're blocking standard ports...02:13
javispedroplaying with m you can do such a lot of funny words...02:13
qpoiandre__, zerojay: either of you fellas still here?02:13
mavhcI've not found the catch, but the carrier "3" in uk were offering PAYG with free skype even if you don't top up02:13
andre__qpoi, hmm?02:13
javispedrohttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nX1HkRxQX4M/ShrdimsDGlI/AAAAAAAABYE/afDrjj_KWtg/s400/me_meo.jpg see? memeo.02:14
zerojayqpoi: Sup?02:14
qpoii was on my phone earlier when i connected here, couldn't type fast enough on the touchpad so i decided to wait until arriving home02:14
qpoianywho, were you two just joshing me? or do you actually have access to some of the test units02:14
bobbyddo you think there's any disadvantage to buying a US model for use in the UK? it's a lot cheaper...02:15
bobbyd(n900 that is)02:15
ShadowJKyou might have to pay UK VAT and import duties02:16
andre__qpoi, i have a test unit.02:16
bobbydandre__: of the n900?02:17
qpoiandre__: could you give me a rough approximation of the frame rate yielded when watching low def youtube?02:17
qpoivia browser02:17
SpeedEvilbobbyd: it's the same price02:17
qwerty12_N810I have the Nokla N900. I couldn't help it, their promo material!...02:17
SpeedEvilbobbyd: if you have to pay import duties and tax.02:17
zerojayqpoi: As I said earlier, asking that question is a bit funny since Youtube's pretty much low fps anyways.02:17
bobbydhmm yes02:17
* javispedro facepalms after watching the jon interview02:18
qpoizerojay: there's a big difference between 5 and 20 fps02:18
SpeedEvilbobbyd: also - there are people offering it on contract - sortof - small internet phone delaers02:18
zerojayqpoi: So it's not always easy to tell if you're seeing low fps because of the video's encoding/capturing or because of the tablet.02:18
javispedrothe interviewer wouldn't have stand a chance with the older palm ceo, ed colligan. ed would have beat the presenter to death02:18
bobbydSpeedEvil: yep, looking there now02:18

SpeedEvilbobbo02:18
SpeedEvilmeh02:18
qpoizerojay: the question i'm asking is relative to that of desktop speeds -- not absolute02:19
bobbydyep0 seen that02:19
bobbydI like the t mobile deal, if it's not as restrictive as it seems02:19
bobbydge02:19
bobbydoops :). Get the n900 and unlimited (up to 1GB per month) for 39 quid a month for 12 months and 40 quid up front02:20
bobbydpretty good02:20
qpoizerojay: is it comparable to desktop speeds on yours?02:20
SpeedEvilbobbyd: t-mobile deal?02:20
bobbydSpeedEvil: yep, through that site02:21
SpeedEvilI diddn't see t-mobile02:21
SpeedEvilmaybe they've updated since I last looked02:21
SpeedEvilwas just voda02:22
bobbydyou have to click the tabs at the bottom02:22
*** vivijim has quit IRC02:22
bobbydthen select pay monthly02:22
SpeedEvilIIRC the cheapest through voda 'SIM free' - well - it comes with a voda 'simplicity' SIM - was 39602:22
*** Mousey has quit IRC02:23
SpeedEvilWhich works out to - comparing with the contract - 6/mo for the contract - the network connection part02:23
SpeedEvilwhich isn't too bad02:23
bobbydright, but then you don't have mobile web...02:23
*** schrod has quit IRC02:25
bobbydthe t-mobile deal is £90 more for unlimited web for a year, so £7.5 a month, which is pretty good02:27
SpeedEvilyeah02:28
ShadowJKqpoi, got an N8x0?02:29
bobbydactually, missed an extra £40 there, so it's about a tenner02:29
bobbydandre__: tell me one thing, is it as good as it seems from the videos?02:29
SpeedEvilCheck the extras - IIRC t-mobile were throwing in free wifi access or something02:30
bobbydhmmmm02:30
andre__bobbyd, that's a very vague question02:31
bobbydandre__: ok, do you feel any of the features have been misrepresented, and don't live up to the hype?02:32
andre__i in general have issues with such open questions. e.g. define "the videos". i think i haven't seen all of them02:32
andre__and the latest hardware that's going to be sold is definitely better than what's around here02:33
*** hap has left #maemo02:34
javispedrowhy, why, why on earth doesn't HildonCheckButton inherit from GtkToggleButton, or even better, GtkCheckButton.02:34
andre__javispedro, wasn't there a bug report about that?02:35
*** bobbyd has quit IRC02:35
javispedroandre__, right, as usual :)02:35
javispedrohttps://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473902:35
andre__in short: because it's too late to break api02:35
javispedroWONTFIX. *sigh* well.02:35
andre__in long: yeah, very stupid to not think about it in the beginning02:36

zelrikriandoI guess I am a nolife06:32
zelrikriandothat might be the answer06:32

johnxwell, I'm here on a friday night too06:32
*** hellwolf-n810 has joined #maemo06:33
zelrikriandois maemo set to be on other devices than tablets/phones?06:33
johnxthat's one of those questions that seems pretty clear cut06:33
zelrikriandoI think I am also asking if maemo is nokia only06:33
johnxI don't think nokia is strongly pushing it that direction right now, but it is open source06:33
zelrikriandook06:34
zelrikriandobut nobody has 'stolen' the code yet to make a port06:34
johnxand there's a project called the mer project which takes the open parts of maemo (the ui mostly) and rebases it on debian/ubuntu06:34
zelrikriandook06:34
GeneralAntilleszelrikriando, Nokia appears to have no interest in licensing it at the moment.06:35
GeneralAntilleszelrikriando, the closest thing is, as johnx says, Mer.06:35
zelrikriandoit'd be nice if it can expand to more hardware :)06:35
GeneralAntilles~mer06:35
johnxand mer does aim to be source-package compatible in most of the ways that matter06:35
infobotmer is, like, http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer, or on #mer06:35
zelrikriandook06:36
johnxzelrikriando, what device are you thinking?06:36
GeneralAntillesMer is basically Maemo without Nokia's closed differentiation stuff on top.06:36
zelrikriandojohnx: netbooks/smartbooks or laptops even06:36
johnxhmmm06:36
johnxwell...maemo/mer is really optimized for touch based interfaces on smallish screens06:36
GeneralAntillesHonestly it's not really appropriate for that.06:36
zelrikriandook06:37
johnxI can't picture it being all that fun on a netbook06:37
GeneralAntillesTouch doesn't translate well to trackpad/keyboard.06:37

johnxprobably mostly USians though08:26
johnxthough in the US we don't get a break for going month to month08:26
ShadowJKoperators here haven't yet managed to make it complicated enough without users crying foul and jumping ship08:27
ShadowJKcomplicated enough for users not to figure out how much the operator is really subsidizing, I mean08:27
johnxand the 30GBP/month isn't really *more* than we'd be paying in USD for the same services08:27
*** trbs has quit IRC08:28

*** n6pfk has quit IRC08:39

johnxah, hmm08:41
johnxactually that makes sense08:41
johnxmaybe a price drop in january08:41
ShadowJKWith N97 they were dropping the price because there wasn't really much hype and/or demand..08:42
ShadowJKSeems like N900 is going to be supply limited for a few months08:42
ShadowJKIt would just be stupid with a price cut when people are queueing to get their devices :)08:42

SpeedEvilhttp://slashdot.org/~LiquidCoooled/firehose/13:56
SpeedEvilAlso - bad topic13:56
SpeedEvilmost people won't have heard of most of the keywords13:56
lbtI notice the Ts&Cs for PUSH include "and Nokia may publish the material free of charge and/or incorporate it or any concepts described in it in our products without accountability or liability"  "and you agree to indemnify us if any third party takes action against us in relation to the material you submit."13:57
* SpeedEvil finds out that lcuk is ugly.13:57
SpeedEvillbt: that generally means if you ripped something off - or infringed a patent.13:57
Stskeepslbt: fairly normal i think13:57
SpeedEvillbt: So do a full patent search before submitting.13:58
lcuklbt, hows that work with the announced hardware hacks using TM and C material13:58
lbtit would be if PUSH were a GPL type thing...13:58
lcukspeak n spell, viewmaster rolodex etc13:58
lbtbut I got the feeling PUSH was more on the commercial side...13:58
lbtor at least had that aspect...13:58
lcukits for use in a storefront installation13:58
lcukso yeah its gonna be commercial13:59
lbtso "give us your cool ideas and we'll take 'em and make money - thanks"13:59
lbtjust wondering out loud13:59
lcukbut it gives the opportunity for the teams to be brought together, given resources and help to produce a top class design and showcase it for the world :)13:59
lbtSpeedEvil: the thing about contracts is not what they are for, but what they say.14:00
lcukin open source we rarely get the opportunity to bring our ideas through because of funding issues.  this removes that barrier and gives people valuable pathway to commercial bespoke artistic installations :)14:01
SpeedEvillbt: yes - I know - the above comment wasn't totally serious.14:01
lbt:)14:01
lcuklbt, the art of open source :)14:01
SpeedEvilAs a full patent search for non-trivial software is going to cost you _lots_.14:01
lbtso I just noticed and thought I'd mention it...14:01
lbtlcuk: so it would be nice for them to say they'd consider open-hardware-ing suitable projects...14:02
lcukwell the projects ARE being pushed to use open hardware14:02
lbtheh - you know I'm not a fanatic...14:03
lcukthe arduino project is an open spec microcomputer controller for exactly this14:03
lcukits the sort of stuff that would cost thousands of pounds in my school days, but you can use it to hook up cool stuff14:03
* lcuk is gonna be making all sorts of things soon14:03
lcukthe last hardawre hack i made was ripping a mouse apart and using the motion sensors in a double pendulum14:04
kirmacorsac: I thought the fourth step really refers to N900 with Maemo 5, and fifth step is Qt platform (on Maemo 6 and others)14:04
lbthttp://openremote.org/display/orb/OpenRemote+Box14:04
lardmanhow do I create a callback using glib? I want to stop my command line program after e.g. 10s14:05
lcukkirma, the 5th step involves a chorus of whatever technologies it needs to connect us :)14:05
* lbt wants his N900 to have a thermostat14:05
* lcuk believes its the only harmonious way possible14:05
lbtso it knows whether I'm cold and to turn the heating on14:05
lbt(of course, it would help to know I'm at home too)14:05
lardmanit probably has one on the die....14:05
SpeedEvillbt: I think it does have a CPU thermostat prolly14:06
kirmait pretty certainly has a temperature sensor... on the battery14:06
lbthmm run at idle and work out ambient...14:06
SpeedEvilAnyway - simply write code to detect shivering.14:06
lcuksamppa, do these heartrate monitors include thermometers?14:06
lcuklol14:06
lcukspeedevil, the heating will come on when you are idy reading the articles of playboy14:06
lbtdelta heat change over time14:06
Corsackirma: yeah but as I understood it, 4th step should see a broader audience14:06
lbtgives a measure of ambient I guess14:06
kirmayes... but that's not this device yet, I think.14:07
Corsacuh?14:07
lcukhahah it appears on the firehose and is blue!14:08
* lcuk doesnt know what blue means14:08
lcukhttp://slashdot.org/firehose.pl14:08
lcukbut its there now :D14:08
kirmacorsac: just the idea that I got was that fifth step occurs with maemo 6... well, maybe it's also N900, but most certainly other devices too14:09
lardmanno thoughts on a timer callback?14:09
* lcuk nods at kirma14:11
kirmacorsac: but I've heard *some* rumors of potential marketing ramp-up around next week or something. but it's far from a fact, and especially far from undisputed one :)14:12
lcukdigital harmony would be desired.  old, new, big, small - bringing us closer.14:12
lardmanah g_timer14:12
Corsackirma: what I mean is mass marketing starts at *fourth* step14:15
Corsac== n90014:15
SpeedEvilA scary thing for nokia is to get a large userbase using maemo5, understanding it, nice app-store, and then every maker in china can directly compete with a 100% identical OS running the same apps that the users understand.14:15
*** cyndis has joined #maemo14:16
kirmacorsac: ah14:16
kirmathe non-nokia manufacturers are bound to be on trailing edge on software, and write the "critical" 20% of software themself anyway, and they have serious issues maintaining any sort of customer confidence regarding product quality (basically, their customers don't expect to have any consumer rights after the purchase)14:18
kirma(but that doesn't matter if the device is cheap enough)14:18

lardmanRST38h: "No such file or directory" is an odd error message, as the device file is already open18:47

ccookeif it's difficult, that's not really going to be plausible, even if it *can* be done.18:48

luke-jrGentoo20:53
braindump03Yeah, did it on a 450MHz P2 in the 90s. Took about 48h with X.20:54
dnearyHi20:54

luke-jrbraindump03: N810 isn't that slow20:55

luke-jrSpeedEvil: you have one?20:55
SpeedEvilno20:55
VDVsxdneary, pong20:55
dnearyI'm in the process of trying to synthesis the consensus around the proposals20:55
braindump03luke-jr: 400MHz OMAP? It is!20:55
dnearyWill be saving a new version of the submissions page with substantial changes in a minute20:56
luke-jrbraindump03: OMAP is ARM, not x8620:56
braindump03I know.20:56
luke-jrx86 is significantly slower than most architectures20:56
braindump03Yeah. But ARM is crap, too. Imho.20:57

luke-jrbraindump03: are you Macer?20:57
dnearyVDVsx: There's some proposals you made in your revised schedule that I don't think we need to make20:57
braindump03luke-jr: Yep, but don't like PPC either ;)20:57
dnearyI think we can lengthen the day, add breaks and fit in all of the must-see proposals20:57
dnearyWithout starting earlier on Sunday20:57
braindump03But at first, I need a new OS for the N810. ;)20:58
braindump03Android would be so nice :/20:58

bef0rdsorry was checking if xchat crashed heh...20:58
luke-jrbraindump03: Gentoo20:58
braindump03luke-jr: Well, okay. Which WM?20:59
VDVsxdneary, probably, I tried to avoid moving already accepted proposals, but there's a couple of slots left in the BoF room20:59
luke-jrbraindump03: I mostly just use console mode20:59

braindump03Why?21:02
dnearyVDVsx: We also have the co-creation garage slots21:03
luke-jrbraindump03: because the N810 lacks the RAM for KDE reasonably well21:04

SpeedEvilWow - an openoffice chip! :)21:04
VDVsxdneary, they want to move everything (the 3 slots) to that requested space ?21:05
dnearyNo, the Sunday double session21:05
VDVsxah ok :)21:05
braindump03luke-jr: Yep. But what other OS? :/ Maemo is missing some features, i need21:05
dnearyOK - my summary of the state of play in the proposals page:21:05
dneary5 presentations: awaiting feedback (either two people disagree, or we're waiting for Jamie or yourself)21:06
*** qpoi has quit IRC21:06
*** ouilsen has joined #maemo21:06
*** ishkabibble has quit IRC21:06
dneary8 presentations: Probably accepted (2 strong yesses, or 3 yesses already)21:06
dneary2 proposed lightning talks21:06
dneary5 accepted lightning talks21:07
dneary1 accepted BOF21:07
dneary6 wait and see21:07
dneary4 probably rejected21:07
luke-jrbraindump03: Gentoo+KDE is the closest21:07
dnearyIn the probably accepted, 2 presentations will be merges21:07
braindump03I think, Gentoo + IceWM is closer. But It's not very finger friendly, is it?21:07
VDVsxdneary, humm, waiting for me, I thought I voted in everything in the other day, gonna check21:08
VDVsxdneary, ah ok, there's one, can I vote now or you are editing ?21:09
dnearyWith the state of the schedule, we have 8 presentation slots open, enough lightning talk slots if everyone accepts,21:10
dnearyLet me save first21:10
dnearySaved - refresh21:10
dneary2 presentations missing your comments: high res imaging and test framework tool21:11
keesjdneary: Are we fine on content? do we need more content?21:11
dnearykeesj: We need less ;)21:11
dnearyI think we were too generous with early proposals21:11
dnearyBut there was some pressure from people: "why is the schedule empty? The nokia day is full already")21:12
dnearySo we ended up not keeping enough slots for the last minute rush of high quality proposals from BNokia people when they got their travel funding approved21:12
dnearyIt would have been better if they propose first, and let us know after if they couldn't come21:12
dnearyAnyhoo...21:13
VDVsxdneary, I also have doubts about the high res proposal :(21:13
VDVsxlet me see21:13
dnearyI tend to agree with Quim's analysis of a few of the talks we can move21:14
dnearyTo BOF slots21:14
dnearyand I agree that we can reduce Daniel's slot to 25 mins21:14

lcukahhh sneaky21:20
VDVsxdneary, ok then, we can start adding some of the accepted into the grid :)21:23
keesjdneary: ok21:24
dnearylcuk: Because they're no longer under consideration21:24
dnearyVDVsx: Looking at Quim's suggestions: widget design - what's your take?21:25
VDVsxdneary, I would say yes, despite my previous considerations about this talk, at least seems much more suitable than the other one proposed by the same guy21:27
lcukcan i reasonably ask - why on day 1 do the ui design stuff and the ui panel collide.  isnt it sensible to expect a person wanting to go to one would want to see both21:28
VDVsxlcuk, ask Nokia, not us :P21:28

lcuklol i will have to scroll down first - it just stood out like a sore thumb21:29
lcukthat looks stupidly wrong.  the panel could occur after the other ui bits and build on each other and give users a chance to discuss it.   -developers or -community for this?21:32

*** bef0rd has quit IRC21:34
luke-jrbraindump03: you could easily do that just by mounting it as /home21:34
luke-jrbraindump03: you mean slonopotamus's how-to?21:35
braindump03Yeah, but how to install Gentoo onto the flash instead of the internal mmc?21:35
luke-jrhttp://slonopotamus.org/gentoo-on-n8x021:35
luke-jrbraindump03: uh, I've done neither21:35
braindump03Yup, this one21:35
luke-jryou didn't say flash root :p21:35
slonopotamusbraindump03, flash? 128mb?21:35
luke-jrI doubt it's big enough21:35
braindump03Because I do not have MiniSD at the moment ;)21:35
luke-jrbraindump03: my / is 4.8 GB right now21:36
braindump03Yeah, internal mmc has 2Gig?!21:36
slonopotamushmm... 2.6gb here only.21:36

Stskeepsjohnx goes to sleep when i wake up and comes on when i'm about to sleep :P23:19
johnxbut the difference is that Stskeeps keeps me from going to sleep23:19
johnxand he goes to sleep whether I'm on or not :P23:20
qwerty12_N810yerga: Any plans on making gFTP Fremantle-friendly? ;P23:20
johnxbraindump03, uhm, what are you trying to accomplish with gentoo?23:20
johnxqwerty12_N810, so, fremantle doesn't have the gnome-vfs layer, does it?23:21
johnxhmm, it'd be nice to see a real fuse frontend23:21
keesjnight.... sleep... goood!23:21
Stskeepsbraindump03: me and johnx wasted most of a summer + more on debian port and came to the conclusion desktop environments on mobile devices don't mix due to power conservation issues and usability23:21
Stskeepsresulting in Mer23:21

johnxI know the feeling23:24
johnxalso, being able to actually unpack your suitcase all the way once in a while is nice23:24
johnxbut at the same time, I'm somewhat jealous. I think I caught a case of the wanderlust at some point23:25
braindump03Stskeeps: Yep, I do not want a KDE or so - I want lxlauncher and some GTK apps, Maemo does not provide23:25
*** smackpotato1 has left #maemo23:25
Stskeepsbraindump03: there's a guide for LXDE on Mer somewhere..23:25
Stskeepsor fluxbox, can't remember which23:25
johnxbraindump03, IIRC, the gentoo guys started a little after I did, and I'm not sure they ever really got something bootable23:25

johnxhypothetically, if someone dynamically linked a closed source library against libc, is this likely to cause problems eventually when libc is upgraded and their proprietary library isn't?23:50
johnx(given that both libraries are for ARM EABI linux, though one might be thumb and the other vfp)23:51
suihkulokkijohnx: nope, as long as the ABI is same23:52
johnxfantastic :)23:52
javispedrojohnx: vmware has been dynamically linking with the system libc for years23:52
javispedro(including all the closed source libraries they ship with)23:53
johnxjavispedro, but they usually make a new release every year or so23:53
*** X-Fade_ has quit IRC23:53
*** X-Fade has joined #maemo23:53
johnxI'm kind of assuming this closed source lib will be released once, and never updated (in a worst case scenario)23:53
javispedrojohnx: grab vmware 4, i'm sure it'll still work.23:53
javispedro(if you can build the kernel module, that is :D)23:54
johnxugh. don't remind me about vmware kernel modules. I get enough of that at work to make me want to switch us to xen without telling anyone23:54
javispedro:)23:55
suihkulokkiglibc uses versioned symbols, so even if the decide to change the meaning of some symbols, they still provide the old version of symbol for binaries linking against older libc's23:55
*** jophish_ has joined #maemo23:55
johnxsuihkulokki, very cool. in my limited programming knowledge, I think that was the thing that was confusing me23:55
johnxcause I know I can't necessarily takes things linked against a newer libc to an older one23:56
