SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer ShadowJK - 0th cut - http://www.mauve.plus.com/t/ohm.sh02:45
SpeedEvilI get 450mR on a old cell, and 220 on one I got on ebay a couple of days ago. Both at 3.7V02:46
SpeedEvilCharge state is probably important02:46
ShadowJKSynchronizing?02:47
SpeedEvilv1.1 uploaded - minor bug.02:47
SpeedEvilSynchronising?02:47
ShadowJKYeah elaborate a bit on that02:48
SpeedEvilThe current measurement updates every 5.12s. You can't change that.02:48
SpeedEvilSo polling more often than 2* that risks non-isolated measurements02:49
ShadowJKOne of the biggest annoyances I encountered, was that voltage is sampled by bq every second (?), while current is sampled every 5s, and often times I'd see high current use for a second or two, during that 5s period, so unless I oversample voltage to not miss anything, it becomes a bit unreliable to load variations02:49
SpeedEvilvoltage every 2.5s02:50
SpeedEvilI think02:50
SpeedEvilAnd yes02:50
SpeedEvilThis assumes idle, with screen off for best use02:50
ShadowJK(overpoll and discard non-stable readings)02:50
* SpeedEvil checks if it actually matters02:50
ShadowJKI only tried to do this on paper, and then I did it with a .8A drain and compared to .8A charge :)02:51
*** n900evil has joined #maemo02:52
ShadowJKwhen I did it on "paper" it was more of analyzing large amounts of logs :/02:54
ShadowJKbut this is cool02:54
SpeedEvilSeemingly 10% out of the idle figure when on and doing stuff02:54
*** Evanescence has joined #maemo02:54
SpeedEvilfor the average02:54
SpeedEvilHmm - my newest battery looks like 220mR02:55
ShadowJKwhy am I getting negative mR02:55
SpeedEvilIt's meant to do that!02:55
SpeedEvilIt means it's discharging02:55
SpeedEvil(or I can't be bothered to read the sign bit)02:55
ShadowJK3652mV starting, 271, 259, 299, 385, 209 301, 233, 234, 359, 306: 29602:56
ShadowJK(10% SOC)02:57
SpeedEvilFairly old?02:57
ShadowJK155 cycles02:57
ShadowJK1234mAh02:57
ShadowJKlet me find my "fairly old" battery..02:58
*** FireFly has quit IRC02:59
SpeedEvilInteresting - it gives fairly consistent results when plugged in03:01
SpeedEvil(not if charged of course)03:01
ShadowJKplugging it in prevents cpu from sleep03:02
SpeedEvilBut it can still measure delta-I03:02
ShadowJKit's a bit more complicated, because there's the max current limit from powersupply, and the phantom resistance between bq24150 and rest of system03:04
SpeedEvilI know03:04
SpeedEvilIt's in the 'sort of works' category03:04
* ShadowJK can get somewhat accurate estimates of system load while charging by the voltage drop across that phantom resistance03:04
SpeedEvilAs long as it's far from v_taper03:04

ShadowJK(I calculated 1000 for that one with 900mA charge/discharge difference03:14
ShadowJK+900 / -900, so 1.8A delta03:15
ShadowJKapprox03:15
ShadowJKionic diffusion, and all that voodoo, I guess.03:15

ShadowJKEastmaze, ~70 cycles: 22003:30
DocScrutinizernow if bme was sane, it probably should adjust shutdown threshold by a function(AI) to account for the voltage drop in battery and parasitic R of circuit03:31
*** deimos has quit IRC03:31
ShadowJKor adjust battery meter03:31
*** kthomas_vh has joined #maemo03:32
SpeedEvilIndeed.03:32
SpeedEvilThe one I just got came flat.03:32
SpeedEvilIt may also havebeen in storage ages I guess.03:33
ShadowJKhow flat?03:33
SpeedEvil0v03:34
DocScrutinizersend back03:34
ShadowJKtoo flat03:34
ShadowJKyeah03:34
SpeedEvilNot actually 0v03:34
SpeedEvilactually - no - I think I measured it03:34
ShadowJK250 seems good though03:34
SpeedEvilit was at 2.8 or so03:34
SpeedEvilBut too low to turn on03:34
DocScrutinizer<3V is a dead nut03:34
ShadowJK2.8 is hard shutdown threshold for gaia, maybe it's second hand :-)03:34
nox-battery off ebay?03:35

SpeedEvilnox-: yes03:35
nox-heh03:35
*** bleeter has quit IRC03:35
nox-fake ebay batteries are not uncommon it seems...03:35
SpeedEvilThe one I have - the label is somewhat distressed03:36
*** lxp1 has joined #maemo03:36
SpeedEvilI wonder if it's a real label03:36
*** KMFDM has quit IRC03:36
ShadowJKSpeedEvil, might've been more sensible to get a battery off of dr_frost's list :)03:36
DocScrutinizerI still haven't disassembled an original BL-5J yet, to see what protection they got for it03:36
*** KMFDM has joined #maemo03:36
SpeedEvilShadowJK: Well - yes.03:37
SpeedEvilIt was cheap though. :/03:37
ShadowJKlol03:37
SpeedEvilI was wondering on saving the money on the bat, and spending on http://www.dealextreme.com/p/5600mah-emergency-power-rechargeable-battery-pack-w-led-flashlight-head-cell-phone-adapters-91411 or similar03:38
DocScrutinizerrecently I learned some batteries just exploit the Vvlow cutout of protection for overcurrent protect as well, relying on internal Z before protection circuit03:38
ShadowJKjapod from DX, unused: 23203:38

SpeedEvilThis reminds me - I need to find the bq* chips I bought on ebay03:39

DocScrutinizerduh03:40
SpeedEvilto log some data before I put my panels together03:40
SpeedEvilGot 600W of cells to solder up. :)03:41

paulyhi anyone want to sell me their n8?05:46
hatake_kakashiwhy don't you source them off ebay?05:47
hatake_kakashiand how is this related to maemo anyway :p N8 = symbian powered device05:47
Tronichatake_kakashi: Because you get N8 back when you send N900 for repairs05:48
Tronic=> many N900 users end up with completely useless Symbian device.05:48
hatake_kakashiTronic, indeed, but here is someone wanting to buy a N8, without any trade back for N900 :)05:49
Tronicpauly: So, have a look at auctions, I've seen a lot of warranty replacement N8 and lately E7 being sold there.05:49
paulyon ebay?05:50
hatake_kakashiebay is just an example, there's plenty of other sources05:50
paulywhere tell me!05:50
pauly:)05:50
* hatake_kakashi isn't going to make an exhausive list of potential sources where one can purchase N8. Learn to use google05:51
TronicThe prices, in Finland, are around 150-170 € for used N900, 250 € for N8 in unopened package & two year warranty, 400 € for E7 unopened package & warranty (and nobody will buy these).05:51

hatake_kakashipauly, you can't google? there's plenty depending on which country you are in or which country you may want to source your N8 from05:53
paulyim talking used not new05:54
paulyebay is only auction site i know05:54
hatake_kakashilocal newspapers may also contain second hand goods05:54
paulyusa05:54
hatake_kakashiI never said I was talking about new. If I were to say new, I would have recommended Nokia site :p05:54
hatake_kakashithere's craiglist iirc that's for stateside05:55
paulycraigslist sucks no one uses nokia devices around here05:55
paulymostly htc and apple05:55
hatake_kakashierr I meant local newspapers may also contain a section for people selling, wanting to buy, etc stuff.05:56
paulya nokia phone lol not popular here05:56
SpeedEvilEbay is it then.05:56
paulyyeah05:56
Tronicpauly: Yeah, too bad that you cannot buy N950 and N9 will probably not be available in USA either.05:57
paulyhey Speedevil wheres your n8 :)05:57
hatake_kakashiit maybe rare to find one but its not like as if it doesn't exist05:57
DocScrutinizerpauly: haha, still searching an N8?05:57
*** bleeter has joined #maemo05:57
paulyyes05:57
SpeedEvilpauly: I don't have one - or want one.05:58
paulymy bad05:58
hatake_kakashiI can't imagine any maemo fanatics would want a symbian powered device05:59
pauly<DocScrutinizer: i still havent backed up my data from the broken n900 lol05:59
paulyi lost the metal`1z06:01
antman8969pauly, out of curiosity, why would you ever want an n8?06:01
DocScrutinizerTronic: wtf?! N9 not available in USA? citation needed - or stop spreading fud please.06:01
antman8969I don't know what that even means. What's to stop us from buying it from Europe and shipping it to the US?06:02

DocScrutinizer(not available) I'd be really surprised if Nokia wouldn't sell the first 9-band phone that really can deal with the 3rd world mess in USA exactly there in USA where the 9band makes most sense, and the warranty situation is better for manufacturers than anywhere in Europe06:06
loft306my n900 has created another casualty ... the speakers in   my pick-up are toast... i switched to a patch cable from using the fm tranmitter as there is something on every frequency now and the fm boosted crashed on my device06:06

loft306heh  im getting ahead of self again06:09
loft306imm  tired   been in confrences all day06:10
hatake_kakashiseems like his fm booster is the culprit if I read that right06:10
loft306no06:10
loft306i was hardwired into the line in06:10
SpeedEvilFM booster boosts the output from maybe 30nW to 50nW06:10
SpeedEvilIt's nowhere near the power to damage anything06:10
hatake_kakashithen rephrase what you said about "fm boosted crashed my device"06:10
loft306as i wasnt able to broadcast with enough power to drown out the fm stations06:11
loft306fm booster didnt craash the device it just crashes on startup06:11

TronicDocScrutinizer: http://www.puhelinvertailu.com/uutiset.cfm/2011/07/07/nokia_n9_n_tulossa_sittenkin_useampaan_maahan and other Finnish media. Yes, it is rumors, but it is based on Nokia websites.06:33
TronicGermany, France, UK and USA are missing but a lot of smaller markets are listed.06:34
*** TimmyT has quit IRC06:34
*** valdyn_ has quit IRC06:34
TronicBut then, it has been submitted to the FCC, which would suggest that they plan to release, I suppose.06:35
DocScrutinizerTronic: there's a perfectl explanation for that: the online stores will close or already did. That doesn't mean Nokia won't ship N9 thru other channels06:35
*** chigga has quit IRC06:35
DocScrutinizerlike Amazon06:36
TronicEither way, it is impossible to tell what the company is doing these days. It seems that different parts of it are doing quite the opposite of each-other.06:36
DocScrutinizertrue that06:36
DocScrutinizerbut the "Will not be available in $random-country" is clearly based on a WTF-moment about the short list of countries for availability check *through Nokia webshop*06:37
maybeArghtronic: that has been true for a few years now06:38
DocScrutinizerno more US webshop -> no N9 available *via webshop*. Simple as that06:38

TimmyTi've downloaded meego for n900, how to install meego beside maemo?08:20
TronicTimmyT: Do you have a MicroSD card?08:21
TronicThat's the place to install it but be aware that it will run very slowly.08:21
hatake_kakashiit highly depends on which class microSD card you used08:21
Tronic(and look ugly as you get the community UX instead of Nokia Swipe or whatnot)08:22
Tronichatake_kakashi: Doesn't really.08:22
TronicClass 10 isn't really any faster on N900 :(08:22
TimmyTwell can't i shrink that 27 GB partition and isnstall meego on that?08:23
hatake_kakashiTronic, and fyi meego was recommended to be installed on microSD, not the internal eMMC08:24
hatake_kakashiyou can in theory08:24
TimmyTand how to bootup that? by nolo? or it is possible to install grup on device?08:24
*** hannesw__ has quit IRC08:25
hatake_kakashiyou have to use uboot08:25
hatake_kakashinolo > uboot > you choose whether you want to boot maemo or meego08:25
TimmyTy are u saying in theory?08:25
TronicFor good performance you should really use the 200 MB flash chip but then you definitely need to throw away the Maemo.08:26
hatake_kakashibecause installation of meego onto eMMC isn't recommended and afaik nobody covered the idea of repartitioning the eMMC for meego to be installed onto that repartitioned portion08:26
TronicDunno how fast the eMMC is, probably not much better than MicroSD.08:26
hatake_kakashiand to use meego directly you won't have all the benefits that you normally get on maemo such as accelerated drivers and what not (certain builds of meego has acceleration mode but others are either broken or not working)08:28
hatake_kakashishould I add certain builds of meego images for N90008:29
TimmyTTronic: im saying this because my microSD card is 512 MB08:29
*** unixSnob has joined #maemo08:29
robbiethe1stMight just want to go buy yourself an 8GB card? they're like $25...08:29
robbiethe1steven 16gb isn't that much08:30
TimmyTrobbiethe1st: well u know it's 1:30 am08:30
robbiethe1stWell, it's not going to happen tonight... even messing with meego is going to be a number of hours08:31
hatake_kakashiit doesn't stop you from ordering one on the internet08:31
TimmyTrobbiethe1st: so it seems i've to choose another plan for tonight :p08:31
hatake_kakashiand desperation will only lead to a stuffed up setup08:32
robbiethe1stWhy not spend tonight improving Maemo?08:32
robbiethe1stInstall a few tweaks, mess with the transitions etc?08:32
TimmyTit's ok, but i just wanted to know that y this is impossible or not recommended to install it on its internal storage08:33
hatake_kakashimaybe a good idea to also backup current setup as well :P08:33
TimmyTrobbiethe1st: i had an idea08:33
TimmyTrobbiethe1st: it was about a new theme08:33
robbiethe1stWhy? Because you've got to re-partition the emmc. You can't access it over USB(only the one partition is exposed)08:33
robbiethe1stYou'll have to do it on-device, which is sort of tricky; you've got no GUI tool to do it for you08:34
hatake_kakashiit isn't impossible, its just not recommended because one bad mistake could mean a complete reflash (especially with a fubared separate partition for meego on eMMC).08:34
robbiethe1stExactly08:34
robbiethe1stThe people who can figure out how to do it, well... they aren't going to be complaining that "OMG!!! MEEGo BrOKE My PHONE !!111!"08:35
hatake_kakashior `how do i fix this? is broken! HELP!'08:35
hatake_kakashimaybe even add (urgent) as well and hoping their issues will be quickly addressed/attended to08:36
*** ckandeler has quit IRC08:36
robbiethe1stExactly. I'd not have any trouble, but then again, I've reflashed a number of times, figured out how to flash on x64 linux, etc. I'm not going to be complaining if things fail.08:36
TronicTook a few attempts to do the repartitioning with Maemo only (I wanted larger /opt). Reflash every time you did something in the wrong order or if you forgot something trivial.08:37
*** hannesw__ has joined #maemo08:37
TimmyTno im not going to say that, :D i was reading installation wiki , i saw it said u must install it on microSD cards, i thought it may has a certain reason, like being not able to bootup or somethin08:37
hatake_kakashithe reasons were stated above08:38
robbiethe1stYou just have to make sure the optfs partition is in the same partition # on the eMMC lest it won't boot08:38

DocScrutinizer(<Tronic> For good performance you should) says who? also I *never* heard meego got installed on NAND09:04
DocScrutinizer(<hatake_kakashi> because installation of meego onto eMMC isn't recommended and afaik nobody covered the idea of repartitioning the eMMC) MohammadAG did exactly that. A number of other meego users too09:05
DocScrutinizer(eMMC speed) class10 is a hoax mostly. ShadowJK found sandisk class4(?) being way faster on real OS performance than random class1009:06

hatake_kakashiDocScrutinizer, indeed, for those who know what they are doing :). I guess sandisk mobs knows what they are doing when it comes to performance on a chip/s. Though they are expensive piece of equipment, they don't offer class 10 32GB microSD (well not as far as I know of down here where I live) and that they are rather expensive. I should note too at one stage they marketed 32GB USB sticks with fairly low read/write performance (I can't remember wh09:20
hatake_kakashiich, it was either one, the other or both) and many 32GB owners complained (source maybe obtained from sandisk website)09:20
*** Oppo|n900 has quit IRC09:21
hatake_kakashiinevitably the speeds can never be compared from a microSD to a NAND chip. a NAND chip may be far larger in size and has more connections to the physical board compared that to of microSD09:22

hatake_kakashiinteresting bit of article there on fake and real microSD09:37
TronicShould be much more tolerant for system disk use (repeated writes on the same location) than memory cards.09:38
*** Ian-- has joined #maemo09:38
TronicBut just to be clear, I definitely don't recommend trying to install MeeGo on the integrated memory of the N900.09:39
DocScrutinizerTronic: I don't think it's so much faster than uSD or eMMC. None of them deviates on even factor 2 from average over all 309:39
TronicIt would be nice if it were hacked to run on some affordable but new Android device (haven't heard of anyone doing this yet).09:40
DocScrutinizerfor anti-vendor ports I'd possibly prefer SHR over meego09:40
DocScrutinizerin my book meego's main (if not only) advantage is vendor support09:41
TronicWhat's SHR?09:41
DocScrutinizer~shr09:42
infobotshr is, like, The Stable Hybrid Release (SHR), intended to be a community driven distribution composed of the FSO and some basic applications, that can be configured to use several different graphical toolkits, for example GTK or EFL. SHR is based on the FSO build. At first, SHR was introduced in order to use the Openmoko2007.2 GTK software in combination with the new FSO, but things have changed.09:42
hatake_kakashiin my case, testing with what seems to be a genuine TopRAM microSD 32GB microSD memory card, it seems the internal Toshiba 32GB is somewhat slightly faster (using fff to compare09:42

DocScrutinizerthough the photo I linked in ~hostmode-charging shows my 3G dongle, with the Y-cable it shipped with, and I powered it *in initial storage mode* from N90009:51
hatake_kakashiat this point in time I'm thinking h-e-n is more of POC concept rather than the OEM's ideal approach to what USB hostmode/OTG really is meant to be on N90009:52
DocScrutinizeranyway my N900 3G is just good enough - why would I want to connect an external 3G dongle?09:52
hatake_kakashiI'm sure one could easily relate to that :)09:52

*** hannesw has joined #maemo09:57
hatake_kakashiI'm not slanting h-e-n. It is a nice functionality for those of us (yes including myself) wants to attach various other USB devices to N900. Afterall the Nokia N tablets had USB OTG (or at least the precedessor did) and N900 didn't have USB OTG which is a fairly dramatic letdown09:57
*** zap has quit IRC09:59
*** klasu__ has joined #maemo10:00
*** zap has joined #maemo10:00
hatake_kakashiand I too also agree that PoC is getting rather popular, but sometimes also more often than not it is used in ways it was never meant to be, such as for illicit purposes. Not that in precise terms that USB OTG/hostmode for N900 can be used for illicit purposes but nobody said it was impossible on the contrary :)10:00
DocScrutinizerN900 is first NIT device with USB charging only, and to accomplish that and then also get the cert of USB board, they had to mess with OTG detection and broke some functions in hw. They had no time to run further spins on hw revisions testing and whatnot, so they accepted the fact and binned OTG and hostmode10:01
*** saqi has joined #maemo10:02
*** hurbu has quit IRC10:03
DocScrutinizerhatake_kakashi: sorry, the term "illicit purposes" makes no sense to me - and believe me I had no "illicit purposes" in mind I wanted to exclude from future h-e-n usecases when I waded through making it happen10:03
DocScrutinizerh-e-n came to life to turn N900 into a proper USB host. Nothing less, nothing more10:04
*** reenignEesreveR has quit IRC10:05
DocScrutinizerabout charging hostmode nevertheless I thought thoroughly after basic functions worked just so good that my headache started to get better10:06
hatake_kakashiDocScrutinizer, heh I guess I should have been more clearer, I meant illicit purpose that doesn't redefine what the original PoC maker did. Much like Sony PS3's case of jailbreak kit later lead to pirated PS3 stuff. In theory USB hostmode could be used for instance in breaking other people's WEP quicker (notably with pk, aircrack-ng suite and the like)10:06
DocScrutinizererr uhuh10:06
robbiethe1stWell, um... that's the reason you lock down everything, including all ports. Remember, if your pesky users can't use it, they can't /mis/-use it!10:07
DocScrutinizerand what means "original PoC maker" - wouldn't "you" be a shorter term?10:07
hatake_kakashiit is confusing, it isn't directly related but for that instance it is in the slightest hint of the sense made it possible10:07
*** alehorst has quit IRC10:08
hatake_kakashi`original PoC maker' I personally define it as whoever made this crack/flaw possible but never had any illicit intentions in mind10:08
DocScrutinizermade it possible?10:08
DocScrutinizerVolta made it possible when he invented electricity?10:09
hatake_kakashimade it possible as in easing the effect of one having to do it all by hand (which can be a rather cumbersome mode)10:09
DocScrutinizerI was quite a bit involved in gathering the info bits and designing the needed sw bits10:10
DocScrutinizerbut I didn't make it possible10:10
hatake_kakashiagain I'm not saying you had evil intentions, but such PoC like most others can be twisted into dark realms and be used as illicit tools, such as aircrack-ng, nmap, and what not10:10
hatake_kakashiwell you had a UI afaik :)10:10
DocScrutinizermeh, I'm afk10:10
hatake_kakashirather GUI10:10

SpeedEvilAnd depending on what you want to do - hard20:07
SpeedEvilIf you want the entire device encrypted - contacts and all - you're going to have to go in quite deep.20:07
SpeedEvilIf you want to have teh software encrypted too - it gets lots messier still.20:07
orangeyi'm not asking for much20:07
orangeyjust something that would stand up to a sophisticated state adversary20:08
orangey; )20:08
SpeedEvilYou need to basically start off at the bootloader, and then heavily patch all the startup scripts.20:08
fusii'm just careful with my phone..20:08

NIN101And an encrypted /home/ is PITA after a reflash.20:08

DocScrutinizer(emoticon)20:10
SpeedEvilI forget where I've seen them.20:10
SpeedEvilorangey: But you'd also need the device to shut off when it gets out of your hands.20:10
orangeySpeedEvil: the other big issue will be locking when it sleeps / laeves me20:11

DocScrutinizerorangey: the you have a hard time20:12
SpeedEvilfusi: Low-level flash is quite volatile.20:12
NIN101http://nin101.uni.cx/N900/crypto/encrypted_home/ but as said, I do not recommend that for beginners, as it's likely that they will mess something up. My setup: I boot, and enter a LUKS key(fbcon console), then after lock code and pin, an autostart truecrypt mount for MyDocs....20:12
orangeyI'm talking about making contact with people while collecting human rights violations in hostile states20:12
SpeedEvilfusi: If a block has been block erase, it's gone.20:12
fusiSpeedEvil: ill see if i can find the article..20:13
SpeedEvilfusi: The hard part is that in many devices, the firmware handles the eraseblocks, and may not quite do that with all data.20:13

peterbjornxis it the program that reboots the device incase Xorg/hildon stops responding?20:27

DocScrutinizerorangey: wait for N920:29

peterbjornxbut why does xterm get killed if it uses 100% CPU20:30
orangeyand the contact management is unparalleled.20:30
SpeedEvilorangey: In adition, in a PC, every single device on the PCIe bus with firmware (that's all of them) is a vector you have no source for.20:31
DocScrutinizerorangey: obviously this also means *you* (the user) also don't have any more control over the device, as the concept is based on the assumption every user might be rogue20:31
SpeedEvilAnd as I point out to DocScrutinizer every time, in principle, with truste computing, the user can have the keys.20:31
SpeedEvils/user/owner/20:32
infobotSpeedEvil meant: And as I point out to DocScrutinizer every time, in principle, with truste computing, the owner can have the keys.20:32
SpeedEvilThe fact the owner does not have the keys is the objectionable part.20:32
DocScrutinizerso as the MSSF can't distinguish you from a rogue attacker sneaking in some sniffer to your device, it is based on the concept that *nobody* can do this without certification from Nokia20:32

DocScrutinizerthe reality is *different* though20:36
orangeywe've probably more than sufficiently answered two questions: 1) not all that practical to do; 2) we need help. REAL help20:36
DocScrutinizerTPM isn't built to change root key20:36
SpeedEvilCurrent implementations are not, no.20:37
SpeedEvilorangey: It's quite practical to do, if you have the skills.20:37
orangeyand the time.20:37
SpeedEvilorangey: There are no fundamentally very hard bits - all of the heavy lifting has been done - it's just effort and time.20:37
orangeySpeedEvil: there is nothing practical about trying to test and execute a WDE on which people's lives may rely20:37
SpeedEvilorangey: Err - what? The technical implementation is fairly straightforward.20:38
SpeedEvilThe hard part is turning off when you put the device down.20:38
SpeedEvilIn addition - you do kow that the modem will tell the tower its location whenever it's on, if asked from the GPS?20:39
SpeedEvilWithout any software action at all, and you have no security for calls from the telco20:39
orangeySpeedEvil: it will actually try to get a satellite gps lock?20:40

peterbjornxas on multiple attempts at running apt-get install kde in a chroot it just reboots20:48

peterbjornxok, but installing kde is done on desktops all the time, without problem21:01
peterbjornxive installed kde on desktop with 3 gig total ram (real+swap)21:01
DocScrutinizerpeterbjornx: how's that on topic now?21:02
DocScrutinizerI was talking about your dpkg calls maybe get parallelized, or you are installing a package that has 500 dependencies that get auto-installed to dpkg ram usage explodes, or sth like that21:03
peterbjornxas i expect a n900 with (im adding 3 gig swap) 3,8GB swap and 0,2GB ram should be able to do that21:03

DocScrutinizerjacekowski: once your linked list of data objects exceeds the size your system can keep in ram, each walk down the list will slow down from n microseconds to nnn milliseconds due to swapping hell. Such huge linked lists are especially likely to be seen in package managers when dealing with huge trees of dependencies in packages22:54
DocScrutinizeryast of first opensuse version was notorious to act like that, probably because of that friggin red carpet thing they tried to plumb on and also due to mono (UGH!! :-o)22:56

*** klasu__ has quit IRC23:01
DocScrutinizerthe solution always is the same: get a list of missing/updateable pkgs, then install/update each pkg without caring about dependencies. Once you're thru with all the single-pkg-install, you start up your "smart" pkg manager again to check the dependencies once more23:01

DocScrutinizeractually freeing up one MB or even a few kB of ram, e.g. by kiling another process, can speed up such a package manager in a critical situation by factor 10^6, if it's just the amound of RAM that is missing to keep the complete list resident23:13

tank-mancause i have the patent on it!23:31
DocScrutinizerconference call is a service established in the exchange of your provider, you only need the right signalling to control that feature23:31
DocScrutinizeriirc the codes are along **0 to **3 (0 usually ending sth, 3 entering conference mode) 1 and 2 is for switching between first and second call iirc23:32
SpeedEvilHmm23:32
SpeedEvilConference call with the different people coming out of different speakers would be cool23:33
internetishardThey're both long distance if that matters23:34

DocScrutinizerinternetishard: please note you probably may want to have *#-ena http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=756257 installed, just in case it makes a difference on how N900 modem is processing the codes. Also IIRC some carriers may require a leading * or ** or a trailing # attached to the numeric codes, to distinguish them from simple DTMF sent to the far end23:52
DocScrutinizerso the sequence to accept a waiting call is either "2<send>" or "*2<send>" or "**2<send>" or "2#<send>"23:54
