*** guysoft42 has quit IRC00:01
JaffaGeneralAntilles: crashanddie sleeping has meant my comment hasn't shown up yet.00:01
anprhey mece are you familiar with pidgin ?00:01
andre__GeneralAntilles, only found https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180040 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32279900:01
povbotBug 180040: was not found.00:01
povbotBug 322799: was not found.00:01
andre__povbot, you're stupid00:02
povbotandre__: Error: "you're" is not a valid command.00:02
meceanpr, on my desktop, yes.00:02
GeneralAntillesJaffa, yeah, moderated comments are irritating.00:02
*** VDVsx has quit IRC00:02
JaffaGeneralAntilles: Short version: "using 'this affects me too' as a shortcut for voting seems like a fine idea to me"00:02
*** maemoITorg has quit IRC00:02
GeneralAntillesJaffa, it's gotta be one click, though.00:02
anprso it brings all the info from programs like skype and etc ?00:02
GeneralAntillesNot sure how difficult it would be to change the voting setup for that.00:02
meceanpr, well the skype part is kinda pointless imo.00:02
andre__I should probably blog and just link to this post. quite wonderful.00:03
*** Phono has quit IRC00:03
meceanpr, it needs the real skype software running..00:03
*** straind has quit IRC00:03
anprbut it works on n900, doesn't it ?00:03
GeneralAntillesandre__, get ready for commenters asking if you're going to send patches to upstream? :P00:04
zChrisThis might be a dumb question but is N900 strong enough to play xvids ?00:04
*** cyndis has quit IRC00:04
andre__hmm? :-)00:04
andre__zChris, why not?00:04
GeneralAntilleszChris, depends on the resolution and bitrate.00:05
zChrisandre__: Well isit strong enough for 720p also? :)00:05
andre__zChris, do xvids have more weight than other videos? :-P00:05
GeneralAntilleszChris, short answer, though, yes.00:05
konfoo720p.. come on00:05
konfoothe screen isn't 720p00:05
*** ppenz has joined #maemo00:05
zChriskonfoo: i was more thinking on the tvout :)00:05
*** straind has joined #maemo00:05
konfoontsc/pal is not 720p00:05
Dantonichi anyone know if its possible to use mplayer instead of gstreamer in the default media player of the N900?00:05
Damion2tvout matches the 800x480 for pal at least00:05
*** ceh900 has joined #maemo00:06
*** fernando2k has quit IRC00:06
zChrisIm drawn between a hero or the n90000:06
zChrisa hero = htc hero :P00:06
anprzChris00:07
konfooyoure not going to find anyone in marketing on this channel00:07
tripzerozChris, n900 is a more powerful device00:07
anprehm, wanna suffer from WM?00:07
mecezChris, well I guess it depends on what you want. It's like choosing between a machete  and a rocket launcher.00:07
*** danilocesar has quit IRC00:07
tripzerolol00:08
anprmaybe it mayb be more user friendly first... but i have bad feelings to it somehow..00:08
JaffaGeneralAntilles: Yeah, as a one-click shortcut; and more prominent; than voting.00:08

Lumpio-*00:09
Xisdibikmece:  more like a fly swatter, and a nuclear bomb :D00:09
anpr:D:D:D00:09
konfoois it just me or does using exchange as a mail service seem to suck down battery life00:09
*** cyndis has joined #maemo00:09
mecekonfoo, I hear it does.00:10
*** chenca has quit IRC00:10
Xisdibikkonfoo: Having my MfE service set to always on, i get better battery life than i would with IMAP at 5/10 and maybe 15 minutes, but less than IMAP set at 30minute + intervals00:10
meceexchange = evil00:10
Xisdibikbut i get the benefit of getting my mail right away ;)00:10
konfooive been running gmail imap for a while but adding exchange has just hammered the battery life00:11
meceand I mean evil in a bad way, not the nice evil, like Christopher Walken.00:11
konfooeven with the shortest sync thresholds00:11
Xisdibikkonfoo: are you syncing with gmail or exchange?00:11
konfooboth (two accounts)00:11
Xisdibikwell thats probably why.. as its 2 mail accounts, more battery drain00:12
XisdibikI synced gmail through IMAP, and now through MfE,  so its still just one account00:12
GeneralAntillesJaffa, think it should be implemented as a patch to the voting system or as another system entirely?00:12
Xisdibikyours is using battery for IMAP. and for MfE, two different protocols afaik00:12
*** chun1 has joined #maemo00:12
konfooi didnt notice much hit with imap, was my point00:12
chun1Can I use my n900 as a webcam for my pc?00:12
konfoomfe seems to have impacted it exponentially00:12
*** woglinde has joined #maemo00:12
Xisdibikdunno,  my phone lasts 24 hours+, so its fine for me00:12
konfooanyway i'll just remove exchange. hell its only work email ;)00:13
Xisdibikyea who wants work at home :p00:13
konfooha exactly00:13
lcukGeneralAntilles, it should be the voting thing00:13
lcukno point in having 2 buttons which mean the same thing00:14
lcukpeople should only be voting for bugs if they experience em themselves anyway00:14
woglindehe luck00:14

meceanpr, ... come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me... ?00:30
anprwould you mind to help to discuss about hero and n900 ?00:31
mecehero < N90000:31
mece'nuff said.00:31
anpryeah, but zChris wants facts00:31
tripzerotis true00:31
tripzerolook at the hardware specs00:31
*** timeless_mbp has quit IRC00:32
anprwhy00:32
anpryeah, but everyday usage, apps, support and etc00:32
tripzeroif he wants a bazillion nearly useless apps, get a hero00:32
meceanpr, well int that case, let me quote myself: "mece: hero < N900"00:32
mece;)00:33
zChrisBiger companies behind hero apps though :S00:33
anprmece i would say myself hero <*n n90000:33
mecezChris, well, that changes things to this: N900 > Hero00:33
zChrismece: Funneh :P00:34
meceok seriously though, It's a completely different beast.00:34
tripzeroit all depends on what you want to do00:34
tripzeroif you want to have a more 'free' experience, get an n900 and hack away00:35
*** VDVsx has joined #maemo00:35

tripzeroif you want to be trendy and locked down, get an android device00:35
*** heinx has quit IRC00:35
mecenaturally I'm speaking for myself.00:35
zChristripzero: locked down ?00:35
*** tlir has joined #maemo00:35
tripzerozChris, android is more locked down than maemo is00:36
meceThis is what it boils down to for me: maemo makes android look like pong.00:36
tybollthmm00:36
tybollthow do I edit a number that is in the call log?00:36
mecea nice, shiny pong, but pong nevertheless.00:36
tybolltor is it indeed so retarded that I can't do anything about it?00:36
tripzerozChris, ie, try making an app that controls the phone on android.  You will find quickly android locks you out of a lot of functionality00:37
tlirthere used to be a topic describing how to connect 2 sip calls on maemo 8x0, anyone remembers that?00:37
zChristripzero: yeah but that dosent affect me that much which ones is abit more open than the other00:37
*** chun1 has left #maemo00:37
tripzerozChris, if you want to be able to play, say xvid or ogg, or any other codec, it does matter00:38
zChristripzero: Hero cant play xvid or ogg?00:38
konfoohero is a joke in comparison. come on, i cant believe this conversation is going on00:38
mecezChris, well I guess either one would work fine. If you need MfE on a server that only allows provisional devices, then n900 is not for you :)00:38
tripzerozChris, http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=158100:39
mecekonfoo, hero seems like a nice phone. All shiny and thin...00:39

tripzerodo you use xvid?00:41
tripzerowhat about flash?00:41
lcukdoes reggie ever come into irc?00:41
zChristripzero: yes. both of em00:41
tripzerothan you may want to double check if android supports them00:41
tripzeroi know it doesn't have flash support, at least not on the nexus00:41
zChrisit doesnt?00:42
SpeedEvilIs there an easy way to set from the command line the background image for a desktop?00:42
meceI was playing with my n900 and thought, damn, it would be nice to check out the project directly, and not have to scp it over. So I casually did apt-get install git, not thinking it would find it. Then it did, and my heart fluttered... <300:42
zChristripzero: hero support flash from what i know00:42
tripzerookay, i see that now00:42
*** ml-maemo has joined #maemo00:42
tripzeroi wonder why the nexus doesn't have it00:42
anprguys is it possible to categorise your apps by yourself ?00:42
mecezChris, really? That's pretty cool.00:42
anpri've downloaded categorise app00:42
zChrismece: how come?00:43
anprbut i didn't really liked it00:43
mecezChris, well flash is nice. I didn't know you could browse flash in hero.00:43
tripzerozChris, last time i heard, android's video playback sucks00:43
redeemanlol flash is not nice00:43
tripzeroand the ui has latency issues00:44
redeemanwhat's wrong with you?00:44
meceredeeman, ok no, it's not. but I do like to have the option, since the world (wide web) is a fracked up place.00:44
zChrisredeeman: I like flash when its used right00:44
tripzerozChris, finally, you should probably find a friend that has each and play around with them for a while.  see which one you like more00:44
redeemanzChris: theres no such thing00:44
zChristripzero: Ive tried the hero .. it didnt feel that good00:45

zChrisredeeman: are you from c++newbs in qnet? :D00:45
redeemanyes00:45
zChrismece: No00:45
Arkenoiit is flash lite00:45
Arkenoimuch like symbian00:45
zChrisredeeman: ^^00:46
zChrishttp://us.blizzard.com/en-us/ <-- good use of flash imo. Awesome00:46
Arkenoiok for simple video but does not work with complicated apps00:46
meceArkenoi, ok so hero does _not_ support flash...00:46
redeemanzChris: its physically impossible to properly use flash00:46
redeemanit is an abomination that by all means should be treated as a plague00:46
ifreqzChris: diablo3 is cool site00:46
Arkenoifor most sites (besides games) flash lite is enough00:46

tripzerotybollt, does it?00:48
tybollttripzero: *jaw drop* if it doesnt ;)00:48
tripzerolemme confirm that...00:48
tripzeroi saw ssh client in the app store00:48
tripzerobut no sshd00:48
jebbait's not running a gnuish system, so i dont think there's bash and such, but i could be off here.00:49
ml-maemoAndroid's downside is the *nix userland being treated as an also-ran00:49
ifreqjebba: ill agree with you00:49
woglindebusybox00:49
ifreqits more like iphone os in that way :P00:49
ml-maemoheavily favoring the Java sandbox00:49

dotblankIs there a way to create a virtual cd rom device so that when you plug it into an old pc (no usb boot support) it can load a selected iso image?01:18
*** dracflamloc has quit IRC01:18
mecedotblank, you mean like the sdk on a live cd?01:19
SpeedEvilno.01:20
tank-manmount with the loop option01:20
dotblankmece, sure why not.. or a system recovery disk.. the point is to have many isos and is user selectable01:20
SpeedEvilHe (or she) means a USB-cdrom driver01:20
*** adelsorb has joined #maemo01:20
dotblankyea exactly01:20
SpeedEvilso the n900 acts like a cdrom01:20
dotblankUSB-cdrom driver01:20
SpeedEvilIn principle, it's 'just' another USB gadget driver.01:20
SpeedEvilI don't however know if it's been implemented.01:21
meceooh. I see.01:21
*** adelsorb has quit IRC01:21
SpeedEvilOr if it is - if the module is included in the kernel - prolly not.01:21
dotblankit would be like any virtual cdrom program.. allows you to mount and umount while it is plugged in01:21
SpeedEvilThough that could be fixed01:21
SpeedEvilthere is certainly no UI01:21
*** Anidel has joined #maemo01:21
*** dirtyrice88 has quit IRC01:21
dotblankCould just make a new entry in the options pop up when it is plugged in..01:22

doubleukayhmm04:19
RevAaronI've been toying with the idea of getting an N900... I pulled out my N800 out of the closest. Is the N900 a substantial improvement, software-wise? I remembered why I had stopped using the N800 in the first place- web browsing is painfully slow. People seem to review the N900 well, but that seems to be the case with the N800 as well- I'm having a hard time distinguishing between fact and wishful thinking with these reviews.04:19

RevAaroni'll look into it! it's been a year or so since I played with the N800, I'm a bit out of the loop.04:24
doubleukayRevAaron: my 2c about the browsing. it's mostly awesome, but there are a few things left to desire. 1) links are hard to click especially if it's small things like page numbers (I come from a opera mini background where the cursor snaps to links). 2) flash ads really spoil the experience by slowing down the browser.04:24

SpeedEvildoubleukay: you have what looks like a normal - say - 250M disk cache of http pages at the proxy side.04:34
SpeedEvilThis is replicated at the client side.04:34
SpeedEvilAny pages the client requests are served against diffs between the known state of the clients disk cache, and the page. The clients cache is then updated to keep them in sync04:35
SpeedEvilThe funky part is that foo.com/baz may end up as a diff from bar.com/fish - if that turns out to be the most similar page in the cache04:36

konttoriwe have too many internal bugs in the system software side, that are not fixed, and we are nearing the time to start freezing the pr1.2 release. (which, by the way, to anybody interested won't mean pr1.2 would come any time soon, just that we are not integrating bug fixes like these anymore - only more serious issues)09:40

sar3thit seems the 207 frames were just random, i'll check with premiere to make sure09:54
Lantiziakulve: so which of those methods have been implemented in the patches?09:54
konttoriWolfie: original decision was to not to include MMS, and then later, it seemed like too big certificaton effort to take on - also, there wasn't enough pressure to have it.09:55
konttorilet's face it, the other sharing options are much more useful.09:55

Lantiziakulve: so theoretically the cover art that songbird 1.4 can embded in my Ogg files... the Nokia media player will show? :) and time frame for these patches to go into some firmware?09:58
Wolfiekonttori: sure, i'm not exactly pining for MMS, but it seemed a bit weird. Although, now that you said it, I'd remember that fMMS doesn't follow the spec 100%, so that explains it09:58

fluxjacekowski, how about measing the change in voltage?16:07
jacekowskionly way it would be measuring voltage and comparing it to known values measured in previous charge cycle16:07
cehtehthe volltage measureing actually must be quite accurated for the battery16:07
cehtehbut there are a lot influences which change the voltage ..16:08
fluxjacekowski, I was thinking rather like how much the battery voltage has changed in the last 30 minutes compared to the 30 minutes before that etc16:08
X-Fadecehteh: yes, but needs to be measured while not charging.16:08
fluxdoesn't it slow down the further you get?16:08
X-Fadecehteh: you need resting voltage.16:08
jacekowskiflux: no16:08
cehtehyou need to watch it, interpolate, find out how fast its charging and know the charge end point16:08

cehtehyou can watch the charge voltage ... should siffoce16:09

SpeedEvilThe battery voltage reported by hal is a very inacurate representation of the real voltage16:09
jacekowskiNiCD or acid batteries and couple other types are charged by directly applying constant voltage to them16:09
SpeedEviljacekowski: err - no, they are not16:09
*** thresh has quit IRC16:10
X-Fadecehteh: Internal resistance makes it measure a bit higher than the actual voltage is.16:10
cehtehand?16:10
jacekowskiSpeedEvil: they are16:10
tybolltso?16:10
X-Fadecehteh: And as you need to be very careful around 4.2v, you need to turn off charging to measure.16:10
jacekowskiSpeedEvil: you apply constant voltage to them with some reasonable current limit just in case16:10
SpeedEviljacekowski: NiCd is charged by a constant current until a negative delta-v condition, or temperature or time thresholds. Lead acid is charged by a constant current followed by a float charge phase.16:10
*** emma has quit IRC16:10
cehtehi only need the end voltage from the last charging and the charge curve  then i can roughly match that to the current charge cycle16:11
SpeedEvilli-ion is more like lead-acid16:11
*** aswat has joined #maemo16:11
jacekowskiwith LiPol are charged by constant current16:11
X-FadeThat is why the last few percent take most of the time to charge.16:11
SpeedEviljacekowski: no, it's not. It's a constant current, then a constant voltage phase.16:11
*** thresh has joined #maemo16:11
X-Fadejacekowski: Until you reach 4.2 and then you go to CV phase.16:11
jacekowskiif you are in CV then battery is charged16:12
jacekowskiand that's not important for now16:12
SpeedEviland terminate charge when current reaches 1/20th or so of what it was in the entry to CV16:12
cehtehas soon you are at CV you can just tell "almost full" and done .. maybe measure how long this takes and run a stopwatch and interpolate that over charge cycles16:12
SpeedEvilif you're in CV your  battery is 70-90% charged - depending on battery lifetime16:12

hrwtimeless_mbp: but what I have to check?17:09
tybolltand really17:09
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: in real world - 15nW gives you 4m - to a good reciever - on a clear channel17:09
* hrw monitors dbus on n900 with 3 tools now17:09
tybollt"try my package"... I have to try real hard for that not to sound like ... eww ;)17:09
timeless_mbpheh17:09
tybolltanyway how?17:09
timeless_mbpi'll give instructions in the other channel17:10
timeless_mbpbut testing is basically anything/everything from the platform17:10
tybolltsure17:10
timeless_mbpa colleague and i recently discovered a bug in the official string selection that we believe was a 1.1 regression17:10
timeless_mbpit took us a couple of months to notice17:10
tybollto_O17:10
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: would you agree this to be the maximun interference range as well?17:10
timeless_mbp(it wasn't my fault, the app people neglected to inform the localization team about the new string, so no one had it!)17:10
SpeedEvilno17:10
hrwtimeless_mbp: my english is not british (nor american)17:11
DocScrutinizeruhuh17:11
tybollttimeless_mbp: not looking to place guilt - I prefer pragmatism - if it can be fix, let's do it :)17:11
timeless_mbphrw: well, you'll have to pick one :)17:11
timeless_mbptybollt: my package has a fix for it now :)17:11
jacekowskihrw: that's good17:11
timeless_mbpbut the point is that testing is really "whatever you can / might think to do"17:11
timeless_mbpbonus points for things that _i'm_ less likely to do17:12
tybolltACK17:12
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: the power at which you can interfere with a clearly reieved signal at the margins of coverage is some 50dB weaker than the power required to be clearly recieved17:12
hrwthat reminds me one thing17:12
tybollttimeless_mbp: sorry, don't know you well enough to tell what you may or may not do ;P17:12
hrw~curse rtcomm developers badly17:12
infobotMay you be reincarnated as a Windows XP administrator, rtcomm developers badly !17:12
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: citation needed17:12
timeless_mbptybollt: fair enough :)17:12
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: see above pdf link17:12
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: for all I know the S/N margin for FM is as low as 6dB17:13
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: not if you want the audio to be nondisturbed.17:14
DocScrutinizercompared to AM where your 50dB figure may be correct17:14
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: 6dB won't cut it in that case.17:14
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: anyway - see the BBC PDF for cites of all these figures17:14
DocScrutinizerk17:14
SpeedEvilhttp://www.ofcom.org.uk/radiocomms/ifi/licensing/classes/rlans/technical/tests/srdtests.pdf also17:14
SpeedEvilBear in mind also that this is weak signal performance. The reciever is barely on the cliff of 'full quieting'.17:16

tybolltSpeedEvil: in .se any type of FM tx not licensed by the government was a criminal offence up until just a few years ago.17:38
SpeedEvilfrom the POV of someone trying to play mp3 on their radio - 250uW would be great.17:38
tybolltnow there are heavy restrictions as to how much your device is allowed to output17:38
SpeedEvilFrom the POV of someone in the next room listening to a FM station on the edge of its coverage - it would completely wipe it out17:38

sandmanDoes Maemo have a package manager similar to Synaptic Packagemanager found in Ubuntu?17:45

*** sheepbat has joined #maemo17:46
sandmani am a Linux dude trying to figure out Maemo..17:46
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: for all the innocent listeners to public radio broadcast that *might* be affected by this problem, it's of at least same concern to them when the rogue MP3 listening user just pumps up the volume17:47
sandmanIn Ubuntu i use synaptic to update and install programs17:47
DocScrutinizerwhich right he has to do _that_ either ?17:47
tybolltsandman: there's an "application manager" browse the menus17:48
tybolltDocScrutinizer: again, it is probably _illegal_ moral or not...17:48
sandmanok.. that uses repositorys?17:48
toggles_wsandman: apt-get works, the "preffered" user method is through the appmanager (more like ubuntu app manager than synaptic)17:48
toggles_wyes17:48
sandmancool17:49
tybolltsandman: yes, the app manager is basically a wrapper around apt w/ some spinkles and jelly on it17:49

*** AndrewFBlack has joined #maemo17:53
DocScrutinizertybollt: and then they sweat it on 250uW for a narrowband FM-TX17:54
SpeedEvilA range of 300m for a personal FM TX is insane.17:55
SpeedEvilWhich is approximately what 250uW would give you17:55
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: that's not what the paper you linked to is suggesting17:56

GeneralAntillesMeaning you just get more noise, not more detail.19:43

cehtehwhat has that to do with the diameter of the lens? .. i wont argue that the lens is not good enough, but diameter is hardly a problem19:44
mtdcehteh: ok19:44
*** promulo has quit IRC19:44
cehtehanyways they camera is quite good for a phone cam19:44
SpeedEvilcehteh: 1.22*wavelength / diameter gives you the resolving power of an optical system (in radians)19:44
*** zap__ has joined #maemo19:44
* Arif finds the LED flashlight app more useful than the camera itself19:45
Arif:D19:45
cehtehyes but the wavelength ins in some hundedreds of nanometers scale for visible light19:45
SpeedEvilcehteh: the diameter of the lens - 1.8mm - divided by the field of view gives you a  number of resolvable pixels of some 2MP IIRC19:45
SpeedEvilSure,.19:45
SpeedEvil1.22*500nm/1.8mm = a bit more than half a milliradian IIRC19:46
cehtehno doubt that the lens is too bad for 5mp .. but on the other hand noise and jpeg compression will do the rest ...19:46

*** Acedip has joined #maemo20:10
*** ioeee has joined #maemo20:10
ShadowJKThe reason for current limits is that the input power is fed directly to the battery mostly unfiltered, through a slow PWM (slow as in 1 hz)20:10
ShadowJKIf the current is too strong the battery can't take it20:10
SpeedEvilcehteh: for USB - you just apply 5V20:10
ShadowJKcehteh, in my experience with various devices with 3.5mm and 2mm ports, their own voltage measurement wasn't all that accurate with regard to the voltage and current windows :/20:11
cehtehSpeedEvil: since a hub dynamo is a quite dirty source i thought i could recycle the charger adapter from the package to give it some treatment (after simple rectification)20:11

jacekowskiis anybody using gadu-gadu on n900 or does anybody know how to import buddylist/contacts from it to n900 contacts?23:12
SpeedEvilDoes 'activating' a red bird do anything?23:13

hexagoonDoes anyone know if it's ok to recompile a debian package and upload to maemo repos?23:13
*** skler` has quit IRC23:13
hexagoonjust adding a changelog entry noting the port23:14
Toba_I would hope so.23:14
GeneralAntilleshexagoon, not if you're planning on uploading it to non-free. :)23:14
Toba_hahaha what23:14
Toba_i think it goes the other way, GeneralAntilles ;)23:14
Lumpio-SpeedEvil: Don't think it does23:14
GeneralAntillesToba, if he's planning on "recompiling" then it sounds like he's doing it locally.23:14
GeneralAntillesWhich sounds like he's just planning on uploading a binary.23:15
GeneralAntillesWhich aint gonna work.23:15
Toba_I figure he means cross compiling...23:15
hexagoonGeneralAntilles: Well, sourcing the original package, repack it and upload to extras :P23:15
Toba_remember hexagoon it's an ARM chip23:15
GeneralAntillesToba, that doesn't mean anything different. :)23:15
GeneralAntillesToba_, if he's uploading it to Extras, it's going through the autobuilder which handles the compilation. :)23:16
Toba_heh23:16
Toba_I should shut up about things I don't know as much about as I thought I did.23:16
hexagoonToba_: =)23:16
hexagoonI'm a dev, just need to port some dependencies23:16

hexagoonmk8: what happens?23:42
mk8I also install maemo-sdk-debug, rootstrap and so on ... but I not able to compile a code that use INotify23:42
*** bleeter has joined #maemo23:42
*** v13 has joined #maemo23:42
hexagoonwhat happens when you try to compile ? :)23:43
mk8probably I make some mistake on the configuration of the environment....23:43
mk8hexagoon: I got this error:23:43
mk8/var/tmp/cc2TNRPk.o(.text+0x1b): In function `main':23:43

hexagoon=)23:44
hexagoondo you have the inotify lib?23:44

* v13 needs python packaging guidance/help23:45
mk8hexagoon: I not know .. I install the maemo-sdk-debug package in the HOST environment23:45
mk8to compile the C code I simply use "gcc inotify.c -o inotify.bin" ... on all the environment, I never specify any external lib23:46
*** jon1012 has quit IRC23:47
luke-jrmk8: you need to if it uses an external lib23:48
luke-jrwhen invoked as 'gcc', it by default links libc23:48
*** anpr has joined #maemo23:49
luke-jrfor inotify tho, there are no libs..23:50
mk8right luke-jr, but inotify is in the kernel so I suppose that is resolved by libc23:50
luke-jrmk8: I don't think libc provides kernel interfaces23:50
luke-jrbut I don't know how they are resolved :|23:50
Toba_heh23:50
ShadowJKyou can syscall() kernel things glibc doesn't know about23:52
v13for some things, glibc provides just aliases against syscalls()23:54
mk8ShadowJK: the problem is more complex. I identify that an not able to compile code that use inotify ... but I need to compile a big crunch of code that I not write and use inotify ....23:55
v13you can always get the inotify code from glibc and add it to the code23:55
v13but make sure that inotify actually works on mameo's kernel first :)23:56
*** sphenxes has quit IRC23:56
mk8v13: the problem is that glib not compile because not find inotify interface23:56

Arifcan I just create it?23:56
mk8luke-jr , v13 , the problem is glib libray during the linking stage give me this error ....23:57
johnsu01why don't we have /etc/shells?23:57
ShadowJKarif: sure23:57
luke-jrmk8: ok, I don't use glib. :P23:58

*** heaviside has joined #maemo23:58
mk8luke-jr: I suppose that is not possible for me ... :(23:58
luke-jrmk8: why?23:58
ArifI looked in /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf23:58
mk8because the environment that I try to port use glib library23:59
luke-jrfail :P23:59
* Arif goes to look there too23:59
