DocScrutinizer51javispedro: which app of yours?00:02
ZogG_workchrome on windows + web freenode = terrible fonts00:02
ZogG_worki forgot AC adapter for laptop at home, now i would kill myself00:03
ZogG_workDocScrutinizer51: don't try to stop me00:03
GAN900DocScrutinizer51, nothing particularly grueling, but, as Stskeeps is so fond of refraining: Dive in and get to work on what bothers you.00:03
javispedroDocScrutinizer51: "cfmradio", "C FM Radio"00:03
GAN900tybollt, 6 months out of anything even remotely resembling that hook-in. ;)00:04

DocScrutinizer51javispedro: I'll give that a try when I'm back home. this app now is really borked in some ways00:06
javispedrohm00:06
MohammadAGreflash!00:07
MohammadAG:p00:07
javispedrowell the reason I've not pushed mine to extras yet is because I fear some weird interactions with phone calls when using it00:07
javispedroand I don't want to repeat the initial fmradio fiasco..00:07
MohammadAGuse libplayback00:07
MohammadAGor listen to /com/nokia/csd00:07
javispedroI know that; however grimme did listen for lots of extra notifications00:08
DocScrutinizer51errr00:08
javispedroI do not want to extend my tentacles all over the system for such a simple function, so I'm trying to decide what is the requisite minimum00:08
MohammadAGi still don't get one thing though00:08
MohammadAGhow does the stock mediaplayer sound a beep instead of full sounds00:08
javispedro"sound a beep"?00:08
MohammadAGbut mine doesn't00:08
MohammadAGeven though they're both using mafw00:09
DocScrutinizer51javispedro: you'll have to update my memory about those fmradio issues with calls - when I'm back home00:09
MohammadAGjavispedro, when you get a notification while music's playing00:09
MohammadAGyou get a beep instead of the ringing tone00:09
javispedrothat is probably our little ohmd friend.00:09
*** eijk has quit IRC00:09
javispedroyou can't emulate the same behaviour on mohammediaplayer?00:10
MohammadAGnot with mafw, there's something else00:10
javispedrooh, oh.00:10
javispedrofunny.00:10
*** Metallikettu has quit IRC00:10
javispedrothe only other source I know for metadata would be libplayback.00:10
*** Metallikettu has joined #maemo00:10
*** mc_teo` has joined #maemo00:10
MohammadAGi mean, you can even resume playback without the stock mediaplayer (dbus magic), and sound would still not turn to beeps00:10
MohammadAGso it's obviously a bug in mafw, that was "fixed" in mediaplayer00:11
javispedrohum, weird.00:11
javispedrodoes your app get muted when a notification arrives?00:11
MohammadAGyes00:12

DrGrovSo, Japan could actually stand a core meltdown?02:31
DocScrutinizerfunny  Japanese can't react on events directly, as everything has to get reported up to minister of energy or whatever, and when he says "OK, throw that switch" then they can do. Then report back "switch blocked, shall we use secondary switch?"02:31
DrGrovDocScrutinizer: Yeah, that is funny02:32
DrGrovDocScrutinizer: Not when happening disasters etc. but otherwise.02:33
DrGrovDocScrutinizer: Did you get any sources on that CNN about the plants and a core meltdown is not a severe thing?02:33

DocScrutinizerDrGrov: I don't agree with the generally pro-nuklear notion in that CNN article02:46
DocScrutinizerDrGrov: I think it's not objective02:46
DrGrovDocScrutinizer: I see. So no risk for Europe in this case? Apparently no new Chernobyl?02:47
DocScrutinizernobody knows02:47
DrGrovYes of course. There is always a chance that it might get into Europe as well that radioactive waste.02:47

merlin1991I'm lost atm, where do app icons and .desktop files go /usr/share/applictions/hildon and /usr/share/icons/hicolor... or the folders in /opt/maemo02:55
* DocScrutinizer is all for 1 day of downtime for every minute of delay between the moment *any* remarkable incident is happening in a nuklear power plant, and the moment this info is propagated to the authorities (at least 3 independent entities, like local fireguard, district emergency management, ministry)02:55
*** wazd has quit IRC02:56
CorsacDocScrutinizer: there's no need to limit that to nuclear power plants though02:56
Corsacchemical industry, petrol raffineries, whatever02:56
merlin1991anyone care to enlight me?02:56
DocScrutinizertrue02:56
DocScrutinizermerlin1991: depends. If your icon is significantly larger than a symlink (which it regularly is), then it goes to /opt and gets symlinked from /usr/share02:57
DocScrutinizermerlin1991: at least that's my take on it02:58

DocScrutinizerGAN900: I'm infected by a heretical idea - powerkernel for meego03:30
DocScrutinizeron N900-maemo we got the neutered kernel Nokia flavoured for us. On N900-meego we see a similar problem, as the meego paradigm seems still forbids a lot of desirable hacks that never will go upstream. E.G. hostmode, proper drivers for LP5523-LYSTII LED driver, LIS302 accelerometer etc03:34
*** LjL has quit IRC03:36
erstaziDocScrutinizer: have you used the power kernel for maemo?03:36
DocScrutinizerThe particular issues are quite different, almost diametrically opposite, to what we see on maemo kernel. Still the overall rationale justifying a powerkernel feels similar03:36
DocScrutinizererstazi: well, I'm supposed to, don't you think? :-D03:37

Pillumlol05:26
pupnik"Back at the beginning, low power mode used to drop the CPU to 14Mhz, a speed so low it couldn't keep up with the normal tasks, and the software clock suffered. With HF4, that was increased to 125Mhz and it no longer has any problems keeping up. That's why I asked which hotfix he was using. That won't be it anymore, though, mine sits in low power mode 18 hours a day and it hasn't lost any time."05:27

They seem unable to bring mobile generators of sufficient power to the reactors, so core melt is somewhat guaranteed as soon as batteries are depleted, which seems they already did for one block of Fukushima-108:21

Arkenoiopenmoko does not qualify, sorry15:51
Arkenoiboth from hardware and software viewpoint15:51
SpeedEvil$1M will _not_ cover the software dev15:52
SpeedEvilIt's pretty optimistic for hw.15:52
SpeedEvilAnd fairly small.15:52
kerio$1M won't cover the fcc certification, will it15:52
SpeedEvildunno.15:52
Arkenoikerio, screw it, maIl orders are ok15:52
Arkenoias fake iphone manufacturers deal with it15:53
slonopotamusafaik, openpandora had much less amount of money and still ships devices15:53
alteregoHardware is what is important, as long as it's capable of running MeeGo software isn't much of an issue.15:53
ArkenoiSpeedEvil, you overestimate. have a look at any chinese android model. Do you think every one has over $1M invested in it?15:53
SpeedEvilArkenoi: To make a new phone if you don't have an existing design team, and parts availability, yes.15:54
Arkenoialterego, we still need somebody to do the port, i'd rather not expect it to be completely community driven15:54
ArkenoiSpeedEvil, there are parts for any taste, just they all do androids atm.15:54
alteregoArkenoi: well, if it was a community driven device, like a pandaphone, then MeeGo would already work as is15:55
alteregoAnd very well.15:55
SpeedEvilArkenoi: By parts, I mean obtaining cellphone parts.15:55
Arkenoi$200 for 800x480 capacitive and 460MHz ARM with dual gsm radio and wifi is impressive15:55
SpeedEvilAll 3G vendors are basically completely uninterested in small orders (under 50K)15:55
*** crashanddie_ has quit IRC15:55
SpeedEvilThis is a problem for small runs.15:55
alteregoyeah15:56
alteregoIt's unfortunate really :)15:56
SpeedEvilIf you can get with a chinese vendor that's making 3G smartphones, and convince them to make you a custom model, which may involve no hardware mods - the cost may fall.15:56
* alterego wonders if mobile electronics will ever become more affordable.15:57
ArkenoiSpeedEvil, 2K units is fairly enough to be interesting for china manufacturers, as i was said.15:57
ArkenoiSpeedEvil, sure, that is the way to do.15:57
*** piggz has joined #maemo15:57
alteregoSo, find a handset that has our specs, and get them to make a load with the ability to run and flash meego15:57
Arkenoieven more, you may take existing android design and just request improvements you need.15:58
alteregoSo we'd need a flashing solution like nolo15:58
alteregoSo someone would have to write a good bootloader/flashing solution15:59

SpeedEvilThat is - I can walk into a nokia store, and start yelling.15:59

Arkenoialterego, url? :-)16:01
alteregoAndroid devices aren't gonna die anytime soon, we get good hardware specs at the most competitively priced we can get.16:01
alteregoOr, maybe we could show a manufacturer like Samsung, or HTC that there is huge interest in a hacker phone that will run MeeGo, even if it's stock built with Android16:03
SpeedEvilUnfortunately, third-line makers don't really get the whole open-source thing.16:03
SpeedEvilGPL-violations ar emore common than not16:03
alteregoSo we say, can you make one of your handsets a little more friendly to us hacking MeeGo on it.16:03
alteregoIt'd be hard to ignore if there was enough interest16:04

alteregoAnd you're not asking for too much either, so it may have a good chance.16:04

dangergrrlthe doc says you have to --enable-rd-mode, this is false, you must --disable-rd-mode when you use flasher to boot the meego 1.0 rootfs image, then hit u and you can use gparted on a pc to repartition19:37
BCMMMohammadAG: if you only have one session running, you don't need to specify19:37
BCMMMohammadAG: screen -x is great; if you have only a single session running, it will connect to it without asking any questions19:38
Lava_Croftaye19:38
BCMMand without disconnecting any existing clients19:38
Lava_Croftit does keep the termsize of the first one to login to it tho19:38
BCMMso it's possible to view the same shell on, for example, your n900 and your desktop over ssh19:38
Lava_Crofti use screen and irssi19:39
Lava_Croftso i can login to the same irssi session from anywhere19:39
*** eMHa has quit IRC19:39
MohammadAGcool, thanks19:39
BCMMMohammadAG: a note about terminology: screen also supports multiple "windows", in a single session19:39
Lava_Crofteven split windows!19:39
Lava_Croftiirc19:39
BCMMwith the key combo "C-a a" working a bit like alt-tab19:40
BCMMeach window can run a different shell or command19:40
BCMMnew users sometimes get confused between windows and sessions19:40
Lava_Croftjust watch out that you dont go about starting screen sessions in screen sessions19:40
kerioyo dawg19:40
Lava_Croftalthough you probably will start nesting them horrible at one point19:40
Lava_Croftwe all do19:41
MohammadAGlol19:41
kerioanyway, tmux > screen19:41
BCMMit lets you?19:41
kerioit's just less common19:41
Lava_CroftBCMM: sure19:41
kerioBCMM: sure, why not19:41
keriolike VNC19:41
BCMMon gentoo, the default config won't let you attach from inside a screen19:41
BCMMi've done it while nesting SSH sessions though19:42
BCMMremembering how many times to press "a" when trying to pass a command down the stack is amusing19:42
* MohammadAG can nest screen sessions on Ubuntu19:42
BCMMMohammadAG: if you mean running "screen" in a screen session, that's just a shortcut to making a new window19:43
BCMM(at least on my version)19:43
BCMMctrl-a space to switch to the old one19:43
BCMM(when i said ctrl-a a was the combo, that was a typo. that's the combo to send an actual ctrl-a to the window)19:44
MohammadAGhmm, so how does one nest them?19:44
BCMMif i do screen -x (to make it clear that i don't want a new window) inside a session, i get "Attaching from inside of screen?", and nothing happens19:44
*** The_Fellow has joined #maemo19:46
BCMMoh, it's not a config thing. it's just screen -x inside screen that it doesn't like19:47
*** The_Fellow1 has quit IRC19:47
MohammadAGheh19:47
BCMMMohammadAG: one way is to start another session from an ordinary terminal, detach (C-a d), then screen -r from the sessions you want to nest in19:47
BCMMbut if i were you, i wouldn't...19:48
dangergrrlwell, that was painful19:48
BCMMit gets kinda funky19:48
dangergrrlbut i can verify http://wiki.maemo.org/Repartitioning_the_flash option #6 works but only if you change --enable-rd-mode to --disable-rd-mode19:49
BCMManyway, i've always just run one session at a time, possibly with several windows19:50
dangergrrli'm wondering if i shouldn't have made swap larger while i was at it though19:50
*** mortenvp_ has quit IRC19:50

BCMMDocScrutinizer: i don't mean ordinary USB2 power, i mean the battery charging spec20:46
DocScrutinizerdangergrrl: and no, (USB) chargers never decide whether or not to send power. There's simply 2 or 3 different signalling methods to tell the device about the charger's capabilities20:47
DocScrutinizerBCMM: the charging spec is a supplement of USB2.020:47
BCMMis it now required for something to be called "USB2.0"?20:48
BCMMand what about stuff that dates from before that spec, etc.20:48
DocScrutinizeractually USB2-OTG I guess20:48
BCMMpresumably, the only safe ways to do a completely "dumb" charger are to do no negotiation, causing devices to assume they can't draw more than the minimum current the USB spec allows, or short d+ and d- like the newish standard says?20:49

DocScrutinizerBCMM: well, that's kinda exactly what most devices do, and the #1 method as of USB charging supplement specs20:50
BCMMsee, that's why chargers need a pretty sticker that means "D+ shorted to D- inside", and the maximum power they'll provide in practise next to it20:50
DocScrutinizerno need for the second half. Just make sure the charger can supply *enough* power20:51
BCMMLava_Croft: presumably, that's to make it legal to install OS X? :)20:51
DocScrutinizerwhere "enough" for sure is met with 2A chargers20:51

timeless_w7ipthere's no lilo and there's no grub22:45
DocScrutinizermaemo is based on NOLO as far as bootloader is concerned22:45
timeless_w7ipand generally i think of lilo/grub as loaders for x8622:45
DocScrutinizermultiboot is a nasty hack to reflash the kernel during boot22:45
MohammadAGbefore boot, preinit22:46
*** mikhas has joined #maemo22:46
MohammadAGquite a nice hack, if it didn't flash the kernel but loaded it instead22:46
DocScrutinizermeego is using uBoot for a real bootloader chainloaded by NOLO and starting up either maemo or meego22:46
*** thomasjfox has joined #maemo22:46
MohammadAGbut yeah, uboot dpes that well22:46
MohammadAGdoes even22:46
DocScrutinizerwhile that multiboot, as MohammadAG said, is messing with maemo init process, and deinstalling nitdroid tends to break maemo's init as essential parts of multiboot get removed or messed up22:48
Zero_DoggIs there any way I can install the base firmware image onto a sd card and boot from that? I'm beginning to think the internal memory card of my n810 is broken, because it keeps randomly rebooting22:49
MohammadAGwhat does cat /proc/bootreason output?22:50
Zero_Doggwill try to see if I can get that read on the next reboot, it just did it again. One moment22:51

RST38h[TSA will] retest every full-body X-ray scanner that emits ionizing radiation  247 machines at 38 airports  after maintenance records on some of the devices showed radiation levels 10 times higher than expected. The TSA says that the records reflect math mistakes and that all the machines are safe.22:54
Zero_Doggnow it's stuck in a reboot loop again so can't get to the xterm before it reboots, I'll try reflashing again and see if I can't get to it then22:54
RST38hMath. CS people do not need it.22:54

*** hardaker has quit IRC22:55

DocScrutinizerFFS I'd not even allow my doctor to do a full bodyscan with X-ray22:56

RST38hDoc: Well, then you probably do not want to go to US nowadays22:56

* lcuk does not mind airport security - I note many more airports are doing blended checks around people which is good 22:57
lcukie multiple phased stages through22:58
DocScrutinizerI hope they issue a proper radiation dosage report to every passenger scanned this way, so the med doctor knows what's permissible for further examination of cancer, broken bones etc, during the next 12 months22:59
RST38hYea, right22:59

DocScrutinizerjavispedro claims that timeout is caused by N810's nasty bme, which would of course mean those reboots may happen only when hooked up to charger23:06
Zero_Doggwell, mine happens whenever. Usually when it does something networky, like scan for wireless networks or attempt to bring usb networking up23:06
DocScrutinizermhm, that's in line with my suspicions23:08

BCMMhuh?23:11
BCMMone is a grid of pixels, and therefore goes blocky when you zoom in and uses loads of storage23:11
wazd_MohammadAG: same as me with C++ and Javascript :D23:12
BCMMthe other instead stores instructions like "put a line here and a circle there"23:12

BCMMand therefore scales23:12
BCMMheh, i automatically corrected that to "raster" in my head...23:12
