DocScrutinizer05fasta: (powerkernel) why should CSSU ship a kernel? Isn't it easy enough to install it straight away if you want that kernel rather than the original one?00:19
DocScrutinizer05fasta: #1 mantra of CSSU: "it won't however ship anything that can get installed from extras repository"00:20
DocScrutinizer05CSSU is about maximum possible freedom of choice, not about forcefeeding users with alternatives to stuff that may or may not be optional in original maemo fremantle00:22
*** uros1 has joined #maemo00:22
*** OkropNick has quit IRC00:23
DocScrutinizer05powerkernel has one inevitable problem: kernel modules built for stock kernel won't work with this custom kernel00:23
*** messerting has joined #maemo00:24
*** rcg has joined #maemo00:25
DocScrutinizer05CSSU is all dedicated to 100% compatibility whenever reasonably feasible. There shouldn't be a single user of dunnowhat acme-camera-app or whatever, who can't use CSSU or would have to bin his expensive commercial app that ship with stock kernel modules only00:25
*** kraft has joined #maemo00:25
*** kama has quit IRC00:28
DocScrutinizer05if a patch (of whatever kind)  A) wouldn't need CSSU to get applied, and/or B) can't guarantee 100% compatibility, and/or C) doesn't even fix anything that affects users of stock system - it probably has little to no chances to ever go into CSSU00:29
DocScrutinizer05it's business and domain of projects like powerkernel to bring such improvements to users, that are not absolutely clean and kinda mandatory00:30

infobotQuestions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise, and on-topic.  Don't ask if you can ask a question first.  Don't ask if a person is there; just ask what you intended to ask them.  Better questions more frequently yield better answers.  We are all here voluntarily or against our will.01:00

* DocScrutinizer05 hears a little man whispering into his ear: "powerkernel? ha! why not bundle most recent kubuntu to new version of libreoffice? It's a great distro and much better than anytging any user installing libreoffice will have installed on his machine right now"01:20

DocScrutinizer05one additional note: while we haven't really achieved yet, the original idea of CSSU updates been to get rid of that Nokia concept of monolithic PR update blobs, and rather update each subsystem whenever an update is due, without postponing stuff till next nega bundle rolls out the door01:28
merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: you should simply add a factoid about what cssu is instead of repeatng yourself always :D01:28
DocScrutinizer05factoid length is limited01:29
merlin1991something along the lines of ~includetocssu01:29
DocScrutinizer05I should copy shit to a wiki page01:29
DocScrutinizer05but wait, isn't all there already? ;-D01:29

*** t_s_o has joined #maemo01:30
DocScrutinizer05I think I'll have to continue explaining it over and over again for the next min 5 years (ordered my #4 and #5 N900, so I'd really hope both hw and repos will serve me at least that long)01:32
Macerceltics in 7!01:33
MacerDocScrutinizer05: lol01:33
MacerDocScrutinizer05: get a lumia 900 and put maemo on it :-P01:34
DocScrutinizer05WUT????01:34
merlin1991I ordered #4 some time ago, but I still have to corner to suppliant and ask him where the fuck it is01:34
Macernot possible huh?01:34
Maceri still have my #2 with its broken sim reader01:34

merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: what do you need an cf-29 for?02:20
DocScrutinizer05well, just love decent hardware02:22
merlin1991unless you usually use your notebooks in a warzone and expect it to work after your base got hit, I don't see the point in having it ;)02:23
DocScrutinizer05or maybe just not repeat what others said already: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hetxcun5B1E02:23

DocScrutinizer05I already stumbled and fell with a CF-27 in my hand. The poor pavement ;-D02:24
merlin1991gotta love youtube comments: ...Refurbished Toughbooks protect and secure your data better than any laptop.02:26
merlin1991dafuq?02:26
DocScrutinizer05well, let's say I just need it for holiday02:27
DocScrutinizer05and for full contact combat ;-P (I actually wonder if the thing counts as a weapon on german demonstrations)02:28
*** M4rtinK has quit IRC02:28
merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: I bet the law in question is vague enough that anything sharp, heavy or whatever can be counted as a weapon02:33
DocScrutinizer05probably02:33
DocScrutinizer05recently the have a tendency to invent laws that are like chewing gum. E.G what's 'smoking'?02:34
DocScrutinizer05or on demonstrations: what's "disguise"?02:34
RaimuHehe, conveniently undefined or vague laws. Gotta love those.02:34
RaimuSounds good and smart and sharp on paper to the masses and you can always say "cops sort it out".02:35
RaimuYeah, cops and courts. And yeah they sure do. *grimace*02:35
DocScrutinizer05indeed02:35
RaimuThis reminds me, I would hate to ever, ever depend on the expertise of, say, any judge or jury of randomly-picked individuals if I was accused of anything -- anything -- that had something to do with modern tech or the Internet or whatever.02:36
DocScrutinizer05"SUCKER! I don't give a shit if that's an astma inhaler! you pay 40 bucks for smoking in the nonsmoker area now, or..."02:36
merlin1991Raimu: yeah, modern tech is kind of a problem02:37
RaimuYou could have a completely reasonable defense that any actual computer-savvy person would understand, but the people sitting there and deciding for me wouldn't know the difference. They would just think some CSI probably traced my IP with some computer graphics animation and it's all waterproof 101%02:38
RaimuRant over. Good night. o/02:39
DocScrutinizer05o/02:39
*** loganbr has joined #maemo02:40
merlin1991Raimu: they used visual basic to make a gui to trace your ip and took a screenshot of your irc chat be cause it's all voilatile ;)02:40

DocScrutinizer05\o/ for 50% segfaults on opening those flash11 things on my T50002:42
teotwaki merlin1991 is that the one with the chick going "Good thing I speak l33t"?02:42
teotwakimerlin1991: I think the worst is still the blowfish blowjob scene02:43
merlin1991teotwaki: yep it's in the 2nd link02:43
merlin1991you mean the one where he "hacks" the cia server?02:43
teotwakiyeah02:43
teotwakiyesterday, I was just flipping through channels waiting for sleep to come02:44
DocScrutinizer05Numb3rs is probably as stupid and silly as it possibly gets02:44
teotwakisaw some naval cops show02:44
teotwakithe one with gibbs?02:44
teotwakiNCIS I think02:44
teotwakiWell, the "Miami" version of that.02:44
teotwakiSome dude gets a call, and their elite hacker starts "tracing them"02:45
DocScrutinizer05NCIS Miami is almost as idiotic, yes02:45
teotwakiwithin a second "yeah, the call is coming from the same building, lemme get the GPS signal"02:45
* SpeedEvil ponders...02:45
SpeedEvilMidomer Murders - Miami02:45
teotwakinot only did they immediately see 3 phones on a map of the building02:45
teotwakithe map was 3D, and the gps signal showed them on which floor they were02:46
teotwakinow, if we were to go back on that, they're going to make us believe they have 3D topological maps, correlated with GPS data, for every single building on the east coast02:46
teotwakiGPS is automagically broadcast when you place a call02:47
*** messerting has quit IRC02:47
teotwakiit doesn't matter where you are, anyone can receive that signal -- except the badies, they never use that "smart" technology.02:47
* merlin1991 rofls02:47
DocScrutinizer05and damn that new generation of GPS gets a sub-meter accuracy fix *everywhere*, in 0.5s02:48
teotwakiin through meters of reinforced concrete02:48
teotwakiI can't get a signal through my fucking backpack02:48
r00t|n900teotwaki: remove that lead shielding...02:49
teotwakiso that's why it's so heavy!02:50
DocScrutinizer05well, it's contemporary fairy tales. Fantasy, fiction, like Perry Rhodan02:50
teotwakinext scene, (baddie) sniper makes some dude's phone ring, has him in her scope, spends roughly 30 seconds adjusting the scope for wind and shit, takes the shot, and misses (obviously)02:50
merlin1991teotwaki: also the tinfoil hat is affecting your reception ;)02:50
*** budfive has left #maemo02:50
teotwakitwo elite cops go after her, one of them shouts "cover me" (they're roughly at 400m from the building) and the dude whips out his 9mm and starts shooting02:50
merlin1991I really love it how in most "csi" series the sniper adjusts the scope for wind and stuff when the target is only over the street02:51
teotwakievery single bullet hits within a closer area than the sniper bullet02:51
merlin1991:D02:51
teotwakithe guy somehow manages to get up the 8th story of the (empty and abandoned) parking lot within 3 seconds02:51
merlin1991don't you know, them cops have amazing aim with their 9mm ;)02:51
SpeedEvilteotwaki: Pigs can fly in CSI!02:52
teotwakihe sees a car driving down, whips out his pistol, and empties some 20 bullets into the car02:52
GeneralAntilles9mm is more accurate than .300 Win Mag, dumbass.02:52
GeneralAntillesSheesh.02:52
GeneralAntillesLearn something.02:52
DocScrutinizer05lol02:53
GeneralAntillesShorter barrels from imparting harmonic vibrations to the bullet02:53
GeneralAntillesso they fly truer.02:53
DocScrutinizer05it's metric, it has to be more accurate02:53
teotwakilet's go back over the scene: there was no wind in any of the trees, the scope didn't need adjusting. The shot was unmissable. 9mm has less recoil and exactly the same concrete penetrating properties as a .50 cal, cops are allowed to shoot at random passing cars without probable cause (he couldn't see the driver, and never saw her climb into the car)02:53
teotwakinow, I don't mind the odd honest mistake02:55
teotwakiSuch as, for example, some show playing Beethoven in the background and the dialogue going "Oh, I love Mozart"02:55
merlin1991still the best wtf regarding guns I had was in matrix, where neo dodges the bullets02:55
teotwakimerlin1991: you've not seen the one where they bend bullets?02:56
merlin1991drops weapons to ground, dodges (no pistols on the ground), picks the magically reappearing pistols up again02:56
teotwakiMovie "Wanted"?02:56
merlin1991teotwaki: you mean wanted02:56
merlin1991yeah :D02:56
merlin1991well at least their weapons don't jump in and out of existance02:57
SpeedEvilmerlin1991: But there you can explain that legitimately.02:57
DocScrutinizer05merlin1991: that's the matrix02:57
teotwakiIt's the matrix02:57
SpeedEvilBecuase stuff can actually go in and out of existance.02:57
DocScrutinizer05:-P02:57
teotwakiIt's a shame they never made any sequels to the Matrix, good movie.02:57

teotwakiGeneralAntilles: true.03:00

GeneralAntillesHe freaked like the asshole he is?03:10
teotwakiHe grabbed me by the shoulders and yelled in my face "Noooo DON'T DO IT! Life's isn't that bad!"03:11

GeneralAntillesUgh03:11
GeneralAntillesWhat an ass.03:11
teotwakiOh come on; by and large, it's probably the funniest thing he could've done.03:12
GeneralAntillesOr he could've just ignored it. :P03:12
teotwakiAnd yes, I was expecting a monologue the same way DocScrutinizer05 did03:12
DocScrutinizer05A."Bro, you ain't seen nuttin yet!"03:12
teotwakiBiking home from the afternoon I spent with Stallman, I was of two minds.03:13
DocScrutinizer05"Don't get me started on how bad it is, or you'll start smoking too"03:13
teotwakiIn one way, I understand his "the free software issue is as important as human rights" stance03:13
teotwakion the other, I can't tolerate his disdain for proprietary developers, my stance on that is "I'm free to feed my family"03:14
GeneralAntillesStallman is just a hardline asshole. :P03:14
DocScrutinizer05I prefer 10 stallmans to one poettering03:15
DocScrutinizer05over?03:16
DocScrutinizer05rather than?03:16
teotwakidepends on the beginning on the sentence03:16
teotwaki"I'll take 10 stallmans over one poettering"03:16
Hurrianwait, are we discussing the merits of pulse/avahi/systemd?03:17
DocScrutinizer05NOOOOOO!03:17
teotwakiHurrian: no.03:17
DocScrutinizer05lol03:17
teotwakiInstalling Linux: 8 minutes. Installing Windows: 7 hours.03:17
merlin1991teotwaki: win7 takes about 15 mins03:18
teotwakimerlin1991: bit longer than that03:18
Hurrianteotwaki, given you use the "smart people"'s method of installing both, Linux takes ~2 minutes and Windows takes ~15-20 mins03:18
DocScrutinizer05installing linux takes two weeks and up03:18
teotwakimerlin1991: but it's the 6 hours of installing drivers that kills the performance.03:18
DocScrutinizer05installing windows takes forever, literally03:19
Hurrianthe smart method being "untar your pre-prepared linux FS tarball" / "apply the windows WIM image directly"03:19
teotwakiHurrian: yeah, that still requires you have your image setup03:19
Hurriangentoo stage3+newest archlinux kernels03:19
merlin1991teotwaki: dunno 1 hr driver install for win, or 1 day s&%/?stfu graphics card still does not perform on linux03:20
Hurrianteotwaki, that's assuming your hardware isn't supported OOTB by Windows03:20
Hurrianmeh, the only driver I have to install is my video card driver for games03:20
teotwakiHurrian: nvidia gtx 56003:20
teotwakiand the ethernet port03:21
teotwakiand the esata03:21
teotwakiand the raid03:21
teotwakiand the usb 3.003:21
merlin1991teotwaki: well on linux I had nvidia gtx 560 and ethernet port03:22
Hurrianmeh, fbsd handles my storage for me, I don't let NTFS near my storage drives03:22
merlin1991thanks to mainline being totally fucked up and dropping tcp sessions at random03:22

Hurrians/modern/modern card/03:22

DocScrutinizer05I got tought today they changed FHS and now there's no /bin and /sbin anymore :-O03:23

Hurriannope03:24
DocScrutinizer05on that fedora system that came with the CF-29, /bin and /sbin are symlinks to /usr/*03:24
Hurrianyou do know fedora is beta testing for rhel, right?03:24
DocScrutinizer05W*T*F?!!03:24
r00t|n900well, works if usr is on root...03:25
teotwakiwho cares about /bin and /sbin being symlinks03:25
DocScrutinizer05kinda, heard that03:25
DocScrutinizer05r00t|n900: we're all aware of that03:25
teotwakiDocScrutinizer05: you do know the historical reason behind having some stuff in /usr/bin, other stuff in /bin, etc?03:25
r00t|n900:(03:25

*** teotwaki has quit IRC03:28
DocScrutinizer05cya teo03:29
merlin1991well untill there it just states why we have /bin and /usr/bin and why this leads to problems if /usr is mounted too late03:29

DocScrutinizer05merlin1991: actually that's already a lame excuse for sloppyness and somehow screwed argumentation chain: >>Due to this, many upstream developers have decided to consider the problem of a separate /usr that is not mounted during early boot an outdated question, and started to close bugs regarding these issues as WONTFIX. We certainly cannot blame them, as the benefit of supporting this is questionable and brings a lot of additional work03:48
DocScrutinizer05with it.<<03:48
nox-and to bring some perspective, freebsd for example can load kernel modules via the bootloader and thus doesnt need initrds, and seperate /usr still works03:50
DocScrutinizer05screwed as those devels who closed tickets WONTFIX probably did that on tickets that were like "can't play poweron jingle thru PA"03:50

Estel_everything is dangerous to health. Even passing of time itself.13:43
fastaEstel_: I moved a lot of mp3s to the .sound directory, but it doesn't list any. Do you know why?13:44
Estel_probably, because .sound directory isn't meant to move files there13:44
Estel_eveyr directory starting with dot "." is ommited by tracker, by default13:44
jacekowskifasta: have you disconnected the phone13:44
Estel_no, he mvoed fiels to directory where system sounds - like sms beep - are stored13:44
Estel_it's a feature, that this dir is ommited13:45

fastaEstel_: how?13:49
Estel_instal "quick launch"13:49

Estel_it allow You to map things to camera slie out13:50
Estel_slide, ffs13:50
Estel_i.e. You open camera cover, and menu with 4 possible items appear13:50
Estel_also, you mayw ant to sue shortcutd13:50
Estel_it allow You to map things to camera button itself too, although, hgalf press only13:50
Estel_both long press and short press13:50
Estel_so you can have different things for long and short half-press13:50
Estel_for example, I use quick launch, and, upon sliding camera cover, I've 4 options ons creen - camera-ui, fcam, lowlight, and torch (flashlight)13:51

hatake_kakashiI thought starhash just gives you extra buttons at the phone dial screen15:26
jacekowskifasta: thing is, same web-app on opera would take half of that ram15:26
jacekowskifasta: and firefox is well known for it's memory leaks15:26

fastajacekowski: I know firefox is well known for its memory leaks.15:27
jacekowskihatake_kakashi: IE has improved a lot15:27
jacekowskihatake_kakashi: latest IE is faster than firefox15:27
fastajacekowski: I also know that it's in most cases a problem created by the way JavaScript/DOM interaction works.15:27
jacekowskifasta: doesn't matter, other browsers don't leak like that15:28
fastajacekowski: and while web programmers could mitigate it in most cases, they don't do that.15:28
fastajacekowski: I think a factor of 2 is not that much.15:28
fastajacekowski: But if it is really a different function, there is a problem.15:28

HurrianIE9 still has some quirks15:30
RaimuWhere's IE10, Metro?15:32
RaimuOh, there's a W7 compatible platform preview out.15:34
hatake_kakashijacekowski, still, according to a benchmark I just saw, it still isn't vastly superior compared to firefox let alone chrome15:34
RaimuI thought IE9 was pretty nice for IE.15:34
jacekowskihatake_kakashi: but IE is improving15:35
jacekowskihatake_kakashi: firefox is getting more bloated all the time15:35
RaimuFirefox's only selling point for me these days is the fact that it has a lot of plugins, but that's the only thing rooting for it.15:35
RaimuChrome is a massive, and I mean m-a-s-s-i-v-e memory hog, but it doesn't matter on my desktop PC.15:35
fastaCan anyone please tell me how I can get the CPU load displayed in some fancy widget?15:35
Raimufasta: Tried this? http://maemo.org/packages/view/cpumem-applet/15:36
hatake_kakashijacekowski, doesn't mean that mozilla foundation won't rewrite up firefox to make it go fast again, surely people complain about laggy-ness15:36
Raimuhatake_kakashi: Sure, they did that between FF three and four.15:36
fastaRaimu: maemo seems dead here15:37
hatake_kakashiI'd second what Raimu said with the cpumem applet, that was one of the fair few programs I've installed eversince I got my N90015:37
Raimuhatake_kakashi: I'm afraid though that the next time they're going to make some hard design choices that affect backwards compatibility.15:37

fastaHaha15:38
hatake_kakashiRaimu, well heck, some things may have to go :)15:38

Raimufasta: I love saying "monster cookie". I meant a corrupt cookie that got bungled somehow and needs to be deleted from the browser cache.15:38
fastaRaimu: it's a server error, not a client error.15:39
fastaRaimu: the server should reset the cookie.15:39
fastaRaimu: in short, it's just a programmer error on maemo.org15:39
fastaRaimu: another browser works, btw.15:40

*** kaawee has quit IRC18:29
DocScrutinizer06fasta: replacing busybox by busybox-pwoer is the thing not recommended at all. Installing bash on the other hand is a perfectly sane thing to do, don't worry about any nonsensical compatibility issues18:29
DocScrutinizer06jacekowski: yup18:29
DocScrutinizer06fasta: quite obviously relying on other users having installed busybox-power is an insane thing, and you can't specify busybox-pwer in your shebang. You for sure can have a shebang like #!/bin/bash, and that's proper unix way to handle this sort of percieved "incompatibility"18:31
*** kwtm has quit IRC18:33
Estel_fasta, it's your decision what to do. anyway, you might like to search TMO for post/threads of user,s that replaced busybox with bash, and face many, many problems18:33
Estel_DocScrutinizer, would say, that it's fault of poorly written programs/scripts - which also have some emrit behind it - yet, I think that laziness of some users, that dictate them to use bash instead of learning ash, is ever more poor excuse18:34
Estel_despite popular opinion, busybox isn't worse -it's differrent, msot of the times. And "old timers" don't like to change their habits ;)18:34
DocScrutinizer06obengdako: I dunno what Estel_ recommended. If you want to get proper advice here, you need to ask proper questions. A proper question will allow those who want to help to understand precisely what you did. That includes URLs of downloaded packages, of howto webpages you've read, etc18:34
DocScrutinizer06commands you did. just enough so any other user in here can understand what it was you actually did18:35
Estel_I'm strange example of someone, who had contact with ashy first, and bash some times after - bash irritates me as much, as ash irritates most bash users ;)18:35

Estel_busybox-power is effort by legendary Maemo developer - iDont - to bring us latest updstream version of busybox18:36

Estel_and, he succeed - busybox-power is, in fact, upstream version. even more, idon't patches affected upstream releases too.18:36
Estel_busybox-power is one of essential packages for Maemo, no matter what. Of course, again, it's up to You to decide what You want to use. BTW, there is no problem in using BOTH busybox-power and bash18:37
*** andre__ has quit IRC18:37

DocScrutinizer06busybox is a core essential part of maemo boot process, replacing it by anything else is foolish. AIUI busybox-power does exactly that, replace busybox18:39

Estel_BTW, whinning about busybox-power replacing busybox is poor bullshit, written by someone who actually don't know what busybox-power is18:43
Estel_something also called FUD18:43
Estel_busybox-power incorporates upstream busybox patches - i.e., it's latest upstream version - that ADD funcionality and FIXES bugs, without dropping any things possible in stock busybox18:44
Estel_think about it like cssu, yet, even more compatible.18:44
DocScrutinizer06though I strongly discourrage to do bash default shell for root as well18:44
Estel_(if it wouldn't be due to ideologically biased maintainer, busybox-power would be part of cssu for ages)18:44
DocScrutinizer06and in this context busybox means "the shell and all the 'builtin' commands it comes with" - that's why most unix tools come in gnu-disguise and install under /usr/bin/gnu/*18:46
DocScrutinizer06replacing the busybox symlinks aka alternatives by proper original unix-tools will also result in bootloop18:47
DocScrutinizer06fasta: and obviously you ran into a busybox-power incompatibility/bug in busybox-ls that has potential to also cause bootloop or other severe issues when you dare to replace original busybox by this powa thing18:48
DocScrutinizer06fasta: bottom line: either stick with builtin busybox, or et an *additional* decent shell like described in18:49

DocScrutinizer06andre__: we're not supposed to act against Estel_as soon as his insults are diectly aimed against us (chanops)?19:03
Estel_well, so enjoy fact that I've same opinion about You, + your complete lack of merit - writing for sake of writing.19:03
Estel_Deal?19:03
DocScrutinizer06sane policy indeed19:04
Estel_DocScrutinizer, Your constant alusions to abusing chanop, jsut because it's what You would liek to do now - yet, are to scarred to try - are ensuring me, that cleaning IRC management is even more urgent think, that I though before.19:05
Estel_You may be considered main (by terms of availability) chanop here, yet, You completely fail to diverse Your persopnal disagreements with users from Your chanop duties.19:05
Estel_just for the sake of it, I'm going to quote those lines about "suppoosed" incompatibility in busybox-power and ask iDont - busybox-power developer - about it19:08
Estel_after all, it's harmful for the community, that such FUD is spread on official channel, by chanop (that mention 6 or 7 times during discussion, that he IS chanop)19:08

fastaDocScrutinizer05: i.e. it doesn't play at all.20:44
DocScrutinizer05hmm20:44
fastaDocScrutinizer05: I cp'ed the file to my desktop and can now see the codec, I hope.20:45
DocScrutinizer05there's a couple of additional gtreamer codec pkgs20:45
DocScrutinizer05might help20:45

DocScrutinizer05though I'm not sure if maemo-mediaplayer would profit20:46
fastaDocScrutinizer05: any chance that will work?20:46
DocScrutinizer05hmm, 1280*720 is quite a bit20:46
DocScrutinizer05honestly I don't know20:46
fastaDocScrutinizer05: is there any hw accel. for that?20:47
fastaDocScrutinizer05: it's the kind of video modern phones generate.20:47

fastaDocScrutinizer05: just don't play it on your phone?21:13
DocScrutinizer05:shrug:21:14
DocScrutinizer05if you find the definitive answer to this question, please let me know21:14
*** kaawee has quit IRC21:15
DocScrutinizer05AIUI the decoding of high-bitrate HD video is quite heavy and thus can't get done on N900, even if you would assume it to scale to N900 screen/video compatible format after decoding21:16
DocScrutinizer05can't get done in realtime, that is21:16
fastaWell, I wouldn't mind waiting, as long as it's done in the background.21:17
DocScrutinizer05I think there are quite a number of transcoders available, that would process like a few seconds per minute, and eventually provide a 480*800 video file21:18
DocScrutinizer05I never looked into all that21:18
DocScrutinizer05not even on desktop PC21:19
fastaHandbrake also doesn't compile out of the box.21:19

DocScrutinizer05fasta: (regarding what to do when somebody sends you high-bitrate video) either the one sending this to you thought you should watch it on a 54" HD screen, or it's been a noob who sent it. In the latter case I tend to process on it like I do with inadvertedly sent in .doc files or HTML-only mails. Reject and/or delete21:38

robbiethe1stWho wants a /smartphone/ anyway?22:40
robbiethe1stSeems silly. a Micro-PC(with phone functionality) is /far/ better.22:40
freemangordonbut wouldn't it make you smarter(smartphone I mean)? :P22:41
robbiethe1stNah, it /steals/ your smarts.22:41
robbiethe1stIt is smart so you don't have to be.22:41
fastaBut if you jailbreak an android phone, can't you also just put some random OS on it?22:41
fastaE.g. Ubuntu.22:41
robbiethe1stNot really.22:42
fastaI thought Ubuntu was trying to do those kinds of things.22:42
robbiethe1stTrying, yes. But so far, I've not seen something as good as Maemo22:42
freemangordonAFAIK ubuntu has only OMAP3/4 builds (besides x86)22:42
robbiethe1stBetween closed driver blobs, Ubuntu aiming for a hybrid design that still runs Android at the phone level...22:43
freemangordonBTW guys thumb2 season is open http://maemo.merlin1991.at/cssu/community-thumb/22:43
fastaI think the hard parts of a phone work really good in Maemo, but the software isn't really _that_ great.22:44
robbiethe1stMaby when Allwinner comes out with an A9 derivitive, we'll have a better solution - Their A10(which is a Cortex A8 derivitive) is an excellent chip, OSS friendly.22:44
Sc0rpiusI wonder why my browser has become slow with time22:44
fastaor rather on an n900.22:44
robbiethe1stNah, hardware's lacking with the N90022:44
Sc0rpiusI mean I type a URL in microB and it takes a long time even to start DNSing it and downloading it22:44
Sc0rpiusit wasn't like that when my phone was new :(22:44
freemangordonSc0rpius: the same here, very strange22:44
Sc0rpiusI hope it doesn't have something to do with CSSU...22:45

fastarobbiethe1st: sure, it's underpowered, but it doesn't seem to have major bugs.22:45

freemangordonmy syster has CSSU too, microb is fast on her n90022:45
