Sicelolandscape you mean? :)00:03
Siceloanyway, with forced rotation looks like pidgin is pretty usable .. if only the portrait keyboard was very useable too :)00:13
*** stryngs has joined #maemo00:15
stryngsTo those who might have been offended by the unmasking a couple days ago; sorry about that.  Things spun out of control somewhat.  Won't do it on the freenode again.00:16
*** louisdk has joined #maemo00:22
*** shentey has joined #maemo01:08
DocScrutinizer05no, portrait I meant, for pidgin01:17
DocScrutinizer05stryngs: huh?01:17
Palihi, do you have any experiences with assigning CVE numbers?01:17
*** mavhc has quit IRC01:18
Paliper http://www.debian.org/security/faq#discover and http://www.debian.org/security/faq#cveget debian security team can verify and coordinate security problems across distributions01:19
stryngsHeh01:21
stryngsFunny u mention that pali01:21
stryngsI'm going to be publicly disclosing something CVE worthy here soon01:21
PaliI sent email to debian security team, so will see what happens...01:22

DocScrutinizer05Sicelo: (blacklist) it's still a pity that those lists are actually single line keys in transitions.ini - this makes it almost impossible to handle stuff correctly and conveniently from apt/dpkg. It should be a single file (with the pathname of that file in maybe transitions.ini key blacklistfile=<full path name> and whitelistfile=<full path name>), and in that files there should be single line keys of (at least) two types: app=<appname>;01:59
DocScrutinizer05(windowtitle-or-whatever=<whatever>;) and(!) includefile=<full pathname to a file to include, or even shell pattern wildcards>01:59
DocScrutinizer05this way you could specify in transitions: blacklistfile=/etc/rotation-blacklist-root.cfg02:01
DocScrutinizer05and in /etc/rotation-blacklist-root.cfg you specify includefile=/etc/rotation.d/*.cfg02:02
*** louisdk has joined #maemo02:02
DocScrutinizer05and in /etc/rotation.d/ every app installs its own <appname>.cfg with content app=<appname>02:03
*** Pali has quit IRC02:04
DocScrutinizer05and a very simple config 'wizard' could rename foobar.cfg to foobar.cfg.disabled and vice versa, or even move the file from blacklist to whitelist, easily create new *.cfg files for arbitrary apps etc02:05
*** louisdk has quit IRC02:11
DocScrutinizer05ooh, and probably the keys, instead of app=<appname>  should look like X-MAEMO-ROTATION=<allow|by-app|portrait|landscape>, and any other stuff being ignored. This way you could define includefile=/usr/share/apps/hildon/*.desktop.  Of course multiple includefile keys should be allowed02:14
bencohwell ... from I gathered, the force-rotation "feature" was only meant as a workaround and applications were to be fixed02:16
bencoh(for those that could be fixed)02:16
DocScrutinizer05some can't get fixed02:16
bencohyeah02:17
bencohbut those are mostly closed source, meaning either stock/nokia, or ovi02:17
DocScrutinizer05or third party02:17
bencohyeah ovi/3rd-party02:17
DocScrutinizer05anyway, doesn't make much of a difference02:18
DocScrutinizer05for the fixed apps you use X-MAEMO-ROTATION=by-app, which is also the default when no config for that app is existing in black/white-listing02:19
DocScrutinizer05the rest ships a .desktop file with either of X-MAEMO-ROTATION=<allow|portrait|landscape> in it. Or a similar file for /etc/rotation.d/*02:20
DocScrutinizer05the implementation is prolly rather simple - just a few dozen lines of code02:24
*** beford has quit IRC02:27
*** xray256 has joined #maemo02:29
*** xray256_ has quit IRC02:32
DocScrutinizer05blacklistfile= and whitelistfile= are basically redundant then, could get unified to listfile=, and they are only valid during (and the only valid keys in} initial parsing of transitions.ini. They (it) could point to whatever file you like, even transitions.ini itself which causes a second parsing pass of transitions.ini in which those listfile= key gets ignored and only the includefile= and X-MAEMO-ROTATION= keys are searched for.02:32
*** beford has joined #maemo02:32
DocScrutinizer05each includefile= simply calls same parsing function recursively with the new file parameter02:35

antranigvI see14:44
antranigvum, any nice tutorial to compile fpc on scratchbox?14:44
bencohread the wiki about porting debian packages14:48
bencohgrab lenny's package, and try building it14:48
antranigvoh, didn't know there is a wiki page for that...14:48
antranigv- I want to... - yes, there is a wiki page for that :P (c) maemo community14:49
bencohyou might even try to grab a more recent version, since fpc shouldnt have too many deps14:49
antranigvit doesn't have any, usually.14:49
bencohthen grab latest from debian14:50
bencohbut you'll have to work on the control and rules files14:50
antranigvwhat about compiling it from source?14:50
bencohthat's possible as well, but ... meh :)14:50
bencohbuild a package if you can14:51
antranigvand then add it to extras-devel?14:51
bencohthat's the idea :-)14:51
antranigvI still don't know how to use scratchbox, lol14:55
*** louisdk has joined #maemo14:56

bencohapparently it stopped working a few weeks ago15:52
*** louisdk has joined #maemo15:53

DocScrutinizer05yes, alas not much we can do about that18:56
lolcatwhat are the specs?18:57
DocScrutinizer05well, TI built the Zoom-II with similar specs and they built it with their own chips and in qty of nE4 and they still were more expensive than we are18:58

lolcatto test? does it have the Maemo windows and gui? can it do everything that maemo does?18:59

bencohDocScrutinizer05: it did ... didnt it?18:59
bencoh(unless I missed something)19:00
DocScrutinizer05no, they tried to gather a bazillion preorders and STILL they were friggin expensive19:00
DocScrutinizer05we're trying to build a 500 devices19:00
DocScrutinizer05that's like the difference between a phot wallpaper and a real artist creating a painting on your wall19:01
lolcatDocScrutinizer05: but they had sapphire glass. I am willing to pay like €160 euro extra for sapphire glass19:01

Sicelowhat's a good game for N900 which i can try? something with nice 3d graphics :)21:58
KotCzarnyummm21:59
KotCzarnyn-speed ?21:59
* Sicelo checks it out22:00
KotCzarnynot too good graphics though22:02

KotCzarnyhe he22:02

Siceloi am looking at its youtube video .. yes .. the graphics .. eew22:03
*** robink_ has quit IRC22:03
*** robink_ has joined #maemo22:03
Siceloi am not a gamer anyway .. would have been nice to have some really nice games on N90022:05
* Sicelo has two Nokia N-Gage Classics (one dead though)22:05
KotCzarnyif you like puzzles search for gnurobbo22:05
KotCzarny(little atari classic)22:06
KotCzarnyanother nice one is hex-a-hop22:06
KotCzarnyand 'puzzles' for classic board puzzles22:06
Siceloi want something that's "live" ... e.g. racing. not into shooters, but would play if the graphics are great22:07
KotCzarnyi guess you should look into emulated games22:07
*** robink_ is now known as robink22:07
KotCzarnythey are commercial quality22:08
Siceloyou're right .. i've never used emulators .. although it does seem N900 has some good emulators22:09
*** goldkatze has quit IRC22:10
bencohit does22:12
Siceloso maybe i should ask .. what are the nicest/most detailed/coolest racing games which N900 can emulate? :)22:19
Sicelowhich are also hopefully not too difficult to get22:20
KotCzarnyas usual with emus, you have to pirate it22:20
KotCzarnyunless you have original cartridges/discs22:20
* Sicelo flushed his conscience down the drain, haha22:21
*** dhbiker has quit IRC22:22
bencohanyway ... Playstation games are ... 20yo ? :))22:23
bencoha bit less for the latest22:23
Siceloumm .. 20yo means?22:23
bencoh20 years old22:23

KotCzarnybencoh: n900's screen is small22:25
bencoh?22:25
KotCzarnyand in racing games you dont have time to focus on details22:25
KotCzarnyunless you want to look at paused screens and dont care about playability22:26
bencohand why are you telling me this all of a sudden? :)22:27
KotCzarnythought that argument about games being old was kind of 'old and dusty'22:28
KotCzarny:)22:28
SiceloKotCzarny: N-Gage had even smaller screen .. it was still nice to play22:28
KotCzarnysicelo: i've used n-gage more like a phone/smart-phone than gaming console22:28
KotCzarnyit had very nice implementation of tetris tho22:28
KotCzarnyand worms22:28
Siceloi did both. actually it's the N-Gage which introduced me to smartphones .. i had been using S40 before it22:29
KotCzarnyit could have been grand22:29
bencohKotCzarny: no, it was about "pirating" 20yo games :-)22:29
KotCzarnypity they did few design flops22:29
KotCzarnybencoh: ;)22:30
Siceloi particularly enjoyed the Asphalt games, as well as Collin McRae22:30
KotCzarnymaybe there is s60 emu for n900?22:30
Sicelonope22:31
KotCzarnyand for plain linux? hint hint22:31
Siceloi will check .. doubt though. Symbian was something else22:32
*** vakkov has quit IRC22:33
bencohlooks like some xda guys want it as well ^ ^22:33
*** vakkov has joined #maemo22:34
Sicelowant a symbian emu?22:35
KotCzarnyhttps://blogs.oracle.com/kharezlak/entry/new_nokia_s60_touch_enabled22:37
KotCzarnyhum22:37
*** louisdk has quit IRC22:37
KotCzarnys60 is java?22:37
bencohSicelo: yeah22:38
bencohKotCzarny: probably22:38
Sicelono22:39
Sicelos60 is C++22:39
Sicelobiggest problem -- memory management .. that's where the learning curve was22:39
Sicelosymbian was a glorified version of the original OS on the Psion devices22:40
*** LauRoman has joined #maemo22:41
KotCzarnyi think s60 emu is blind alley22:44
KotCzarnynothing significant on google22:45
