thpNooBmonk3y: so i assume you're not interested in improvement suggestions to the "old" healthcheck code anymore?00:09
NooBmonk3yerm, well, kinda ... but realistically, i'm so close to the new one, and it looks better, best to stick with one :)00:09
NooBmonk3yas i'm aiming this one to be a bit more multi-platform00:09
NooBmonk3y(eventually)00:10
thpdoes the new one already have all the features of the old one?00:10
NooBmonk3yallthough always interested where i went wrong ;)00:10
NooBmonk3yalmost all + some new00:10
*** messerting has quit IRC00:10
NooBmonk3yit's about 70% of old + more :)00:10
NooBmonk3yso i'm just going through and adding sensor checks and camera checks atm00:11
thpnot "wrong" per se, but i can understand why things are slow00:11
NooBmonk3yahhhhhh :P00:12
NooBmonk3ydare i ask, i went for the "it works approach" over the correct approach?00:12
thpjust wanted to clarify that python isn't slow :p00:13
NooBmonk3ylol i'm not disagreeing :)00:13
NooBmonk3yi actually like python, but stuggled for a while :)00:13
NooBmonk3ymy version may have been slow, though :p00:14
NooBmonk3yprobably due to lack of knowledge :)00:14
Funnyfacemeh for some reason my phone won't pick up HSDPA these days, only UMTS00:14
*** BCMM has quit IRC00:14
*** Macer has quit IRC00:15
NooBmonk3yaghhhhhhhhhhhh00:15
Funnyfaceif I use the 3g/2g/dual applet to switch it to GSM only, then back to auto, it normally picks up a HSDPA connection for a while, but then sooner or later it falls back to 3G :>00:15
NooBmonk3ymissus on her way back and 15 mins to wash, clean tidy n sober lol00:15
thpNooBmonk3y: there's just a lot of os.popen with pipes and awk/sed/... in there where you could either open files directly for reading or do the text processing (grep/sed/awk) more efficiently in python00:15
alteregoJust spent an hour doing a configuration dialog ..00:15
NooBmonk3yahhhhhh00:15
alteregoThink I'm losing it ..00:15
alteregoIt's only 5 widgets ..00:15
NooBmonk3ythp,  os.popen i thought opened the file?00:16
NooBmonk3yalthough i understand awk etc reads them and plays with them to get the bits i need00:16
*** lmoura has quit IRC00:16
NooBmonk3ylol alterego00:16
*** MikaT has joined #maemo00:16
thpNooBmonk3y: it opens a process ("p"open)00:16
*** marciom has quit IRC00:17
*** Macer has joined #maemo00:17
*** hardaker has quit IRC00:17
thpand if you have a pipe, you open a new process for every part of the pipe (cat ... | grep ... | awk ...)00:17
thperm.. actually, the "p" in popen stands for pipe according to the docs..00:18
*** lmoura has joined #maemo00:19
thpbut yeah, it still opens a process, which is slow00:19
alteregopython startup times on maemo are horrible as soon as you start using hildon/gtk or Qt bindings.00:20
*** unixSnob has quit IRC00:21
alteregopython actually starts up pretty quickly if you're not importing any of that ..00:21
*** Natunen has quit IRC00:21
mikhasso python import is actually slow?00:21
*** marciom has joined #maemo00:22
thpyes, it loads the libraries00:22
alteregoNo, python importing gtk is slow00:22
*** SpeedEvil has quit IRC00:22
alteregoIt's more likely in the gtk/hildon bindings than it is python import00:22
thp..which loads the gtk libraries00:22
alteregoSome crazy crap in their initialization.00:22
alteregothp indeed.00:23
mikhaswell yes, sure loads the libs ;-) but other apps have to do that, too00:23
*** SpeedEvil has joined #maemo00:23
*** benh has joined #maemo00:24
mikhasalterego, you easily verify that by trying to import different libs/different parts of GTK (doesnt python have this "import foo from blah"?), and measure it00:24
mikhas*you could easily verify that00:24
*** larsivi has quit IRC00:24
thp"import foo from blah" still needs to load the whole library - it only affects what gets imported into the local namespace00:24
*** fecub has quit IRC00:25
thpand you should run a profiler if you really want to know where the loading time is going, i don't know :p00:25
mikhaswell, I kinda doubt it's the lib loading per se ...00:25
thploading + initialization00:26
alteregomikhas: that's just handling namespace.00:27
alteregoThat and gtk is one module ..00:27
pexihttp://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2481&c=zte_v700:27
alteregoWell, and gdk00:27
mikhasoh, you can use import inside functions ...00:27
mikhaspython is funky00:27
alteregoSure, you could do it asynchronously ^.^00:27
mikhashttp://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonSpeed/PerformanceTips#ImportStatementOverhead00:28
alteregoIt'll bever be as good as native code though.00:28
*** ftrvxmtrx has quit IRC00:28
alteregoAnd C++ is easy enough to become dangerous in with little effort.00:28
mikhaserr00:29
mikhasgood for you if you feel that C++ is easy00:29
mikhasyou must be a natural talent ;-)00:29
alteregoI don't think it's easy,00:29
alteregoI think it's easy to learn and become dangerous in ;)00:30
alteregoTo learn it fully, well, that's something else.00:30
mikhasI dont think I get your point00:30
alteregoWell, nevermind.00:31
alteregoI have one more dialog to refactor.00:31

alteregoIn Qt Mobility we can inhibit screen lock, which is good for my app because you want it to stay on, but I was thinking, I'd like to be able to explicitly lock the device and not have it unlock it next time it polls the screensaver inhibit procedure.00:43

pupnikdjszapi: if you mean a document viewer, there are many.  If you mean the microsoft .doc file format, what would you be willing to pay for one?06:49
pupnikyou could also do a good thing for humanity and bounce back .doc files as unreadable06:50
*** chx has quit IRC06:56
Choomthe spec is available, so it's pretty readable -- http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc313118.aspx06:59

DocScrutinizeror ask "his boss" why there's no such reader07:06
pupnik.doc isn't a document format.  at least not as long as whatever is supposed to parse it must handle 5+ different formats.07:09
pupnikmaybe you could call it a family of formats07:09
pupnikand microsoft chose - as a strategic ploy - to do this, in order that a free document viewer would be prohibitely expensive to implement07:11
pupniknot to mention competitor word processors07:11
pupnikthe economic harm of this jackassery is difficult to estimate, but if you think to your document-formatting headaches throughout your life, much of that could have been avoided07:12
* erstazi misses this channel (used to come here when the 770 first came out). Still waiting on his free t-shirt from one of the Nokia guys07:12

erstazianyhow, recently,… I bought a n900 and I am excited as my 770 was white-screened about a year ago by a step-child. << never let children touch your tech equipment07:14
pupniki vaguely remember your nick07:15
pupnikcongrats erstazi :)  like it so far?07:16
erstazipupnik: this was 5~ years ago,… so I don't expect you to remember07:16
pupnikfor me, it's the _only_ cool device on the market07:16
erstazipupnik: haven't received it yet. it is in the mail. I think I got a steal on it since I only paid 220€07:17
erstazibrand new07:17
pupnikcan I order one from you?07:17
erstazihaha07:17
erstazipupnik: have you tried MeeGo yet? (I do not like RPM-based distros much, even though I run one on main server)07:18
pupnikyes i have.07:19
erstazisad to see maemo go, honestly. but what are your thoughts on it?07:19
pupnikin some ways it's better than maemo.  it's a foundation. it's open. it's supported by two major vendors not one07:20
erstaziright07:20
pupniki'm sort of sad to see gtk stuff go away07:21
erstaziexactly07:21
*** johnx has quit IRC07:21
erstazibut, then again, I was shocked they went with GTK in ITOS 200507:21
erstazisince it is Nokia, that is.07:21
pupnikwhat did you think they would do?07:21
pupnikqt?07:22
erstaziQt07:22
pupniki think gtk was do-able at that time07:22
erstaziright07:22
erstaziI agree07:22
erstazinevermind, Nokia acquired Trolltech in 200807:22
erstazieither way, I might dual boot, not sure yet.07:26

pupnikerstazi: how about running a changeroot on n900 with two x-servers - one maemo and one meego?07:38
pupnikwonder if it's possible07:38
erstazipupnik: hmmm, I am up for the challenge (:07:41
ieatlinti don't think it's realistic to run more than one x server on a system07:42
pupnikmaybe X can arbitrate between two OS's but the rest of the devices wouldn't support that out of the box07:42
pupnikieatlint: i do it on my PC fairly frequently07:42
ieatlinti recall being given some very in depth reasoning why...07:42
ieatlintthere's no reason to run two x servers though, it's fully possible to just run 1 server for both methinks07:43
erstazimaybe it is similar to our mothers telling us not to double-dip?07:43
pupnikhttp://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/multiple-x.html07:43
ieatlintheh, alright then07:44
ieatlintwould still be unadvisable on the n900 if you look at how much ram x uses07:45

RobbieThe1stI doubt it; probably a dumb eMMC/optfs issue.14:50
CableTwitchThe sad thing about the first one is that shortly after sending it off, I realised my local hackspace has an SMC hot-air rework station. I could have replaced the bloody USB port myself... *cries*14:50
* MohammadAG hates hardware problems14:50
CableTwitchDoes the eMMC have moments where it corrupts itself then?14:51
CableTwitchOr something else might cause it to go a bit loopy?14:51
RobbieThe1stIt did on me, once. Still not sure why14:51
CableTwitchFor all I know, it might have been cosmic radiation.14:51
CableTwitchWhich would figure, oddly. I WAS pretty much on the equator... direct hit, mental firmware ahoy!14:52
RobbieThe1stLiterally out of the blue, the Optfs corrupted and it wouldn't boot. After diagnosing the problem, I restored an optfs backup image(thanks to my own software) and that solved the problem14:52
CableTwitchSomething else... it wouldnt pick up GPS that day either. Nothing above me, I had the relevant map installed, and it wouldnt find anything.14:52
RobbieThe1stWho knows.14:52
CableTwitchRobbie: I've seen your posts, and I might be tempted to see how you did that.14:52

BCMMi'm still not sure what hte point of UK releases is15:03

RobbieThe1stHm; near as I can figure, chroot will work in my case due to it being the init thread I'm running on; and the fact that it -can- unmount the old rootfs, so it's working right anyway. I'll look at pivotroot later, though.15:03
DocScrutinizerpivot_root used to switch e.g. from initrd to real rootfs15:04

RobbieThe1stWell, be that as it may, it still -works-, for whatever reason. So, no reason to panic, I don't think.15:05
*** scoobertron has joined #maemo15:05
RobbieThe1stAnd if it didn't work right(not able to umount rootfs), it would give an error, so that should be good enough until I can figure out pivot_root.15:05

DocScrutinizerso now try flash VANILLA first, without -R. remove battery when flashing finished. then flash COMBINED again, by sequence "flasher; plug; hold u; insert bat"15:13
CableTwitchWell, it appears during one of its boot cycles, it decided to update the eMMC. I forgot it was still waiting to do so.15:14
CableTwitchOk, I'll wait for it to power down.15:14
CableTwitchThe boot cycle keeps repeating when its plugged into power/USB, but when disconnected, it just loses all interest and fades out.15:15

*** Rarok has joined #maemo15:17
DocScrutinizerno, you have to make sure battery is completely charged. Alas that's impossible with only a bootlooping deice15:17
CableTwitchIt DOES eventually charge the battery15:18
DocScrutinizerno it DOES NOT15:18
CableTwitchIt goes solid yellow for a while, then pulsing in charge mode, then solid green when its done.15:18
CableTwitchSo basically, I have a device that cannot charge its battery?15:18
DocScrutinizerso this is a "completely booted" system that does this15:18
CableTwitchI think it gives up after a while.15:19
CableTwitchI know I'm getting that way15:19
DocScrutinizergreen LED means bme is running, means linux proper is running15:19
CableTwitchHuh, so eventually it MUST boot.15:19
DocScrutinizerthe state is called acting_dead15:20
DocScrutinizerand is similar to a init 215:20

CableTwitchHowever, the device apparently got flashed with it during one of its reboots.15:22
CableTwitchHmm.15:22
CableTwitchI get a brief yellow LED if I plug the data cable in with no battery15:22
DocScrutinizer:nod:15:22

CableTwitchAnd as soon as I put the battery in with the cable attached, the device powers up and tried to boot. Only, with no backlight.15:23

crashanddiejacekowski, france has CB (Carte Bleue), which is a heckuvalot older than EMV18:08
jacekowskihttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_stripe_card#Financial_cards18:08
edheldilnid0: but that different problem. With a gsm phone you won't have problems in most of the europe18:08
jacekowskiThere are up to three tracks on magnetic cards used for financial transactions, known as tracks 1, 2, and 3. Track 3 is virtually unused by the major worldwide networks such as VISA, and often isn't even physically present on the card by virtue of a narrower magnetic stripe. Point-of-sale card readers almost always read track 1, or track 2, and sometimes both, in case one track is unreadable.18:09
jacekowskiTrack 1 is written with code known as DEC SIXBIT plus odd parity. The information on track 1 on financial cards is contained in several formats: A, which is reserved for proprietary use of the card issuer, B, which is described below, C-M, which are reserved for use by ANSI Subcommittee X3B10 and N-Z, which are available for use by individual card issuers:18:09

crashanddiejacekowski, for example, IIRC (and it's been a while, so this may have changed), but I remember having to hack through a smartcard's firmware because we had to do a demo at the US DoD, and we only had Visa cards that wouldn't work on the Amex readers (VSCC vs AEPS or something)18:11
crashanddieThank you wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMV#Application_selection <-- if the terminal is only aware of the amex application, it won't be able to query the right app ID from the card.18:13
