Disconnectdirect sunlight on a bright day circa noon wasn't bad, yah, but ...00:00

tzzok, gmediaserver works well with the N800.  I will try fuppes tonight I guess.00:02
tzzthe N800 doesn't seem to have the bug where entries after the 30th or so would be cut off.00:02

tzzin the media streamer, can the image change or is it fixed to that drawing of a walking man?00:05
lasala2kis flash video playback such as youtube going to be faster on the N800 soon?00:06

tzzyoutube works OK for me, pretty fast and no skips with 3 videos I tried00:09
lasala2kok good to hear00:10
gpdis curl as good or better than wget - or are they different fish?  I have curl on the tab but not used it much before.  Considering using it to grab little chunks of wikipedia for offline browsing.00:12
Disconnectanyone get the media streamer to work with mythtv? no matter what I pick (video or music) i get 'object not found'00:13

gpdi keep finding repositories on ApplicationCatalog2006 that have binaries but no source debs -- is it likely that they just recompiled the debian src?00:19
Takargh, that reminds me - is there a way to upload source packages to garage extras yet?00:20
gpdit would be helpful to have a 'Source Download' link on the wiki page  at least00:20

Jaffakeesj: I've realised I don't even need to keep the local repository (not important for the workflow or how the user uses it, just keeps it need)00:29
Jaffabah, *neat*00:29
gpdI have this underlying fear that most 3rd party developers are going to 'boycot' recompiling their stuff for bora until Nokia gives them all a free N800 ;)00:30
||cwheh00:31
shackanhow does one become root in scratchbox ?00:31
||cwnokia should setup a cluster for native compiling like hp did for the ipaqs00:32
myrenand they should cool it with Ln00:32
myrenour N800's run 700 mhz00:32
myrenspeed up compilation00:32
myreni guess native compling doesnt mean on the native hardware00:33
Takgpd: I wouldn't say boycott00:33
||cwgpd: anyone can download the sdk and test there app so long as it ins't too dependant on hardware00:33
gpdyeah - they can -- doesn't mean they have a burning incentive if they have to stick with mistral on their 77000:33
||cwmyren: well, the native platform anyway.  sometimes crosscompiling just doens't go well00:33
dragornit'd be more efficient to just run the cpu emulation on a big box00:35
*** bilboed has quit IRC00:36
*** maddler has joined #maemo00:36
shackanin order to use bluetooth in the simulator, I need to run the hcid daemon, which in turn needs to be run as root to configure the bt interface, and it exports some things on the D-Bus system bus, anybody knows if it works or if I'm just wasting my time ?00:37

guerby      How to install: Add same repo as for X Termina, then activate red pill, update list and then choose ssh from the list00:37
guerbyeh eh :)00:37
Disconnect||cw: when compaq built the pool it was mostly because there were roughly-equivalent arm boxes out to be used. adding actual ipaqs was way later and was sorta just a way to retire or store dev units :)00:37
*** Fenix-Dark has quit IRC00:38
Takto me, it's not that I don't have any incentive00:39
Takit's that the scratchbox env doesn't give me a real idea of how my apps run on the device00:39
gpdTak: i'm sure you'll get feedback pretty quickly - what are your apps?00:40
* pahartik seems to have idea about process threads but it is incompatible with reality00:40
Disconnectyah - if it had no gui, it would be ok. if it had a working/authentic gui, it would be ok. the fact that it has a half-working mushedup gui is what annoys me00:40
Takfceu, xmame, xmaeme, vba00:40
gpdTak: wow - very nice list :)00:41
dragornanyone have any idea what /usr/bin/time is, that build is looking for in scratchbox?00:41
Takwell - they're apps I've *ported*00:41
dragornsince 'time' is a bash builtin :P00:41
Takalthough fceu may as well be mine, since it's essentially abandoned00:42
Disconnectrandom side note for anyone talking with nokia.. home-home should go to the desktop. (instead of dropping the menu - if i wanted it to go away i'd hit escape....)00:42
gpdso it strikes me that for non-gui app the bottleneck is the cross-compilation step -- or rather setting up scratchbox and knowing what to do with it to cross-compile, and generate armel-debs.  But that the testing part is quicker as you don't have to be particularly skilled to do that bit.00:46
*** atla has quit IRC00:46
dragornwhich scratchbox version are people using lately00:48
gpdii  scratchbox-core                            1.0.700:49
dragornthe compile system seems mightily broken in that version, or is it just me00:50
suihkulokkiscratchbox is not a emulator nor a simulator.. it's a crosscompilin env00:50
dragornsuihkulokki: Which contains qemu for cpu-transparency emulation.00:50
gpddragorn: what are you trying to compile?00:51
dragorngpd: scratchbox itself00:51
dragorngpd: Their new build script is very strange00:51
gpdoh.  i see -- i just used the debs :|00:51
suihkulokkidragorn: the build scripts work only in debian/sarge env00:51
dragorngpd: and tries to run stuff that doesn't exist, like '822-date'.  wtf is 822-date? :P00:51
dragornsuihkulokki: that's amazingly useless.00:52
dragornperhaps I ought to stop dealing with this tonight and go have dinner before I get ruder. :P00:52
gpd822-date - Print date and time in RFC822 format00:52
gpddragorn: perhaps you should install debian00:52
* gpd runs00:52
suihkulokkidragorn: install sbox from the tarballs00:53
suihkulokkidragorn: even if you would manage to rebuild it somewhere else, you would have to copy a shitload of debian etch tools to *inside* scratchbox to have a matching build env with the target00:54
gpdindeed -- 822-date is in dpkg-dev00:54
suihkulokkiif you really, really want to compile it, you should work on sbox2 =)00:55
gpdsuihkulokki: sbox2 = scratchbox version 2 ?00:56
koenscratchbox version nice00:56
gpdsvn only?  pre-alpha?00:56
* Disconnect found the 'answer' to the upnp problem btw. gotta set a proper ip in mythtv-setup for the backend. (although now its not showing up at all, go figure.)00:56
suihkulokkigit-only00:57
gpdsummary of why 'nicer' in 1 line?00:57
dragornsuihkulokki: I want to build a frigging app, not install a new distro just to compile a binary.  THIS would be a major problem for developers, for example.00:58

suihkulokkigpd: sbox2 takes tens of KB while sbox < 1.x takes hundreds of megabytes =)01:00
gpddragorn: what will you be compiling once you get scratchbox running?01:01
dragorngpd: I was going to be rebuilding the kismet packages to match the release I'm rolling out tonight or tomorrow morning.01:01
gpdif you just 'need it done' i have a working scratchbox atm01:02
* dragorn shrugs01:02
trenkasuihkulokki: anyway, I'm afraid now about our idea about modularized initfs01:02
dragornI'm sure someone will when I release the finals01:02

Disconnectgmediaserver works with media streamer :)01:03
gpddragorn: k - have fun01:03
dragorngpd: I'm significantly irked that sb installed very nicely the last time I dealt with it and is very much the opposite at the moment01:03
dragorngpd: Thats about it.01:03
gpdDisconnect: ya -- works a treat - have you tried anything other than mp3?01:04
MDKdaniels: ping01:04
Disconnectgpd: serving the samba'd itunes library, its not liking the itunes rips but mp3s are working01:04
Disconnecti'll try video once the mythtv box gets its upnp server back up01:04
gpdcan I install extra virtual packages for scratchbox? or is what you get - what you get?01:06
Disconnectfakeroot apt-get  inside scratchbox01:06
gpdok - tried that - so must be not available :(01:07
MDKhmm, does the ld-linux.so.2 vs ld-linux.so.3 difference comes from arm vs armel?01:07

gpdOpenVPN 2.0 arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi [SSL] [EPOLL] built on Jan 12 200701:48
Jaffagpd: it dates back to OS 2005: I don't think mistral had a virtual package either. It helps ensure OS 2005 packages weren't accidentally installed on OS 2006.01:48
Jaffagpd: excellent!01:49

maihemIs there a command to connect to a wifi connection via the commandline so I can see any error messages?01:54
JaffaNot easily. There's been a recent thread on one of the mailing lists about diagnosing connection problems, that might have some more info in.01:55

trenkaMDK: try do make it yourself, it helps :) If you have difficultes (sorry for the spelling), I have a couple of simple scripts to build a  cross toolchain02:13
|tbb|you dont have to be root iirc02:13
MDKtrenka: I'm doing it kinda "myself"... i wrote my own set of scripts based on crosstool02:13
trenkaMDK: you are cool02:13
MDKsince I wanted to have reproducable results02:13
trenkaMDK: you are my hero02:14
MDKbut crosstool is kinda messy02:14
shackan./me can't resist the dumb question, what about bootstrapping the gdc from scratchbox ?02:14
MDKshackan: nope, not possible02:14
maihem|tbb|: ifconfig wlan0 seemed fine, but I just noticed the netmask is wrong... 255.255.2550 missing a dot. I'll just check my settings02:14
MDKshackan: btw, why would you want to do this?02:15
maihemdot is present in advanced settings dialog02:15
maihem|tbb|: what is kismet?02:15
* gpd wonders why something called "Free Public WiFi" would give 169.254. address02:15

maihemgpd, its the link-local address, a zeroconf one. I've seen devices named "Free Public Wifi". Check that you are not connecting to somebodies laptop.02:16

JaffaYou don't need one if you keep the same structure, otherwise at the moment I think it just looks in the current directory10:10
JaffaI need to hide the warning message if it wasn't specified.10:11
Jaffakeesj: at the moment there's a problem with deep recursion of Debian-based dependencies, however tarball ones seem to be working fine (although there's no way of specifying build dependencies for them yet)10:12
keesjI have some more notes but I would at least like to be able to buildl netcat or siiliar10:12

Jaffakeesj: there's a netcat package from upstream already there, I'd suggest building that first `mud build netcat' should Just Work, and then tweaking it for something similar.10:13

seebsDo you have SD cards in it?  If so, have you removed them?13:43
paciyes, I tried to flash it with the SD in, and out too13:43
seebsI just figured maybe the SD card had some data that was triggering a bug.13:44
seebsHave you tried alternative images, like the SDK rootfs?13:44
paciseebs: no, however, I'm just downloading it too to give a try13:44
keesjcompukid, http://box.mmapps.net/~keesj/screenshot00.png13:46
tkorebooting should fix most problems, reflashing the whole image should fix all but hardware problems.. if after reflashing, with charged battery and no sd-cards installed, it's still in reboot loop you should contact nokia13:46
compukidkeesj, tnx13:47
tkoend users should never ever need to do more than remove the battery (even that is bad) - for hackers there's the flasher13:47

seebsIs there any way to extract the "removable" card from an N800 that doesn't involve pliers?14:47
seebsI don't think I've ever seen anyone with small enough fingers to extract it by hand.14:47
Milhouseseebs: internal or external?14:48
Milhousehave you got a mini card stuck in your external slot?14:48
seebsThe "external" one -- the one that's under the flap under the stand, not the one by the battery.14:48
seebsNo, it's full size.14:48
koostko: odd, the apt-get indeed installed something (that doesn't look so standard debian to me :)14:48
Milhouseit should have a ridge at the top - use your fingernail to pop it out14:48
seebsI can remove the card with pliers, quite easily, but there's under 1mm of card extending past the case.14:48

koosstrangely I do recall unmount problems with restarting my PC the other day (fs busy errors)15:06
seebsI don't get any kind of menu when I press or hold down the button.15:06
guerbyseebs, you should have the normal "device mode" menu with "lock screen..." ?15:06
seebsOh!  There it is.15:06
guerbyseebs, it's a bit slow after reboot15:07
seebsHmm.  Point 4, with screen off, hold button a long time... How long?15:08
seebsIt comes back up within a second or so for me.15:08
guerbyseebs, yes about a second (a short press will do nothing)15:08
seebsOkay.15:08
koosbtw, I always use 'sb-menu' to switch targets, maybe that's not good enough ..15:09
seebsHmm.  I don't get the "now press dpad" thing.  It just acts normal.15:09

guerbyseebs, funny ... do you have a daily alarm set ?15:10
seebsI don't seem to ever get the "now press..." stuff at all.15:10
seebsAnd no, no alarms.15:10

seebstko, didn't work for me, and I even thought of it!  Maybe I didn't tap hard enough.15:14

tkoI just try to get the outermost edge to fall out, not the connector side15:15
seebsThat was what I tried, but I didn't do it very well.  I'm lame!15:16
tkolike I said, I've had practice since the first 770 prototypes, so yeah.. =)15:16
seebsI'm loving the N800.  I sorta wish it had something to cover the screen, but it's otherwise amazing.15:17
seebsThe 770 was neat, but it never quite made it past "well, I guess I can keep some reference materials on it" for me.15:17
seebsThe extra memory makes ALL the difference.15:17
guerbyseebs, I've added a comment for the "lock screen option". If you leave it unset and put the soft power off option at the top, you have a full N770 cover effect15:17
seebsBlar.  The one downside of greylisting; takes forever to get registration email.15:18
guerbyseebs, and processor, and my guess is that the touchscreen is more sensitive: I can use the thumbkb and sketch feels much more accurate on N800 than on N77015:18
seebsHuh, haven't tried the thumbkb.15:18
seebsProcessor helps some, but I never minded the processor on the 770.15:18

guerbyseebs, what's the chipset for the webcam?15:19
seebsNo clue.15:19
seebsIt Just Works with gstreamer/video4linux.15:19
seebsI actually have that part working.  Now I just need to wrestle with the installer to make it so you can launch the app from an icon and such.15:19
seebsOh, and think of a cheap way to implement "upload these bits to a web server".15:19
tkoseebs, a simple 'save the image to jpeg' would be nice too :)15:20
seebsI have that.15:20
seebsThe problem is that "save to jpeg on local flash" strikes me as a very bad use of the theoretically finite limit on flash writes.15:20
seebsAlso, more fun to have it upload elsewhere.15:21
seebsIf I can convince them I need three columns, not just two, I'll have enough space to introduce a trivial configuration file that sets where to send/save.15:21
tko:)15:21
seebsI'm pretty much giving an entire column to the gstreamer stuff.  I could have made it shorter, except the maemo repository version of gstreamer plugins-good completely omits the JPEG encoder.15:22
seebsStill, after writing once about crossdev for the Zaurus, scratchbox ins my friend.15:22
seebs... That sentence is ungrammatical, and I am too lazy to fix it.15:22
tkoyeah, fer was complaining about the jpeg encoder as well :-/15:23
seebsIt's surprisingly hard to fix cleanly, because a naive effort at creating a clean package of plugins-good is going to clash.15:24

jonekkeesj: can you point me to a highlevel documentation about how a Java AWT-peer implementation works? (any related info is welcome!)15:36
keesjjonek, you have to search for ToolKit that is the "real" peer15:37
keesjthis is one of the first links on google http://sourceforge.net/projects/sdlawt/15:38
jonekkeesj: I searched for "java awt native peer gtk" but there seems to be no HowTo like info available15:38
keesjwow the classpath project even has  a cairo based peer, I don't think that is's compatible15:45
jonekkeesj: compatible to what?15:46
keesjto the sun peer interface15:47
keesjjonek wat about this http://gnu.wildebeest.org/diary/index.php?p=17715:48
jonekkeesj: what exactly is the "sun peer interface"?15:49
keesjjonek, not all the classes in java are purely written in java , they have native calls15:49
jonekkeesj: I know that15:50
keesjthose methods are grouped here http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/awt/Toolkit.html15:51
jonekkeesj: and I understand that AWT can be either implemented by a native toolkit like GTK (map AWT widgets to native widgets) or by letting AWT draw its own widgets in some canvas15:51

kenderhello15:57
jonekkeesj: at first awt.15:58
keesjjonek, you have completely lost me. this would be a non pure java implementation, I don't think you need full awt for running midp15:59
keesjhow about the midpath thing is that what you are searching for http://midpath.thenesis.org/en/Design16:00
jonekkeesj: midp for phoneME advanced is actively worked on by SUN16:00
keesjalright I guess I first would need to understand phoneME better16:03
keesjAll I can say it that there are multiple awt toolkit implemetation that alreadt exits. They don't require the source of the jvm to work since it's possible to start them with a command line option16:04
jonekkeesj: but it is not ready yet. I would like to be able to write programs for the 770 in Java that use the GTK native toolkit (preferably hildonized) and I'm evaluating phoneME advanced instead of jamVM and GNUClasspath for that. running MIDP programms (I guess that are mobile phone apps e.g. games) is not my first goal.16:05
keesjwhy not take this toolkit ttp://www.eteks.com/pja/en/ and implement a screen renderer for this?16:05
keesjok I understand better now. but not many people use awt , there are no widgets like tree etc16:08
*** X-Fade_ has joined #maemo16:11
jonekkeesj: phoneME advanced has a JIT an small footprint - it should fit the 770 system very well and be fast. phoneME advanced implements the CDC with its three profiles (Foundation, Personal Basis, Personal).  the last two support GUI through AWT.)16:12
keesjthat sounds fair16:12

c0ffeeand the 770 was already too large21:54
shapr770 is perfect size for me, but I'm a large person (not fat, just large).21:55
Disconnectc0ffee: how do you figure larger? its slightly larger in one direction (width IIRC) but shorter and thinner. and lighter.21:55
tigertthe point is, if it is very small,21:55
Disconnect(without the 770 hardcase. with it its -way- smaller.)21:55

tigertits also, that if you shrink the device,21:56
tigertyou cannot shrink the ui indefinitely21:56
Disconnectpython apps should run totally unmodified on 770 and 800, right?21:56
tigertsome things need to fit your fingers or eyesight21:56
c0ffeei'm not sure whether it's meanwhile possible to leverage the DSPs21:56
c0ffeethat surely would need a good api21:57
shaprtigert: But you've hit on a good point, fingers and eyesight are the only human hardware ui limitations.21:57
c0ffeemost non-nokia applications are burning too much cpu cycles21:57
tigertshapr: and websites need at least 800 pixels wide screen21:57
shaprIt would be possible to easy if the DSP dev could be done with gcc21:57

*** koen has quit IRC22:19
shaprInductrack is a recent development that got me creative juices going. It's worth reading about.22:19
shaprThat and Halback Arrays, etc22:20
Disconnectshapr: if you have a pair of decent controllable radio you can do the basic localization test yourself. in theory, rssi readings will give you a circle centered on the base unit for your position. set it up in an 'ideal' setup (no barriers, etc) and work out the rssi->distance conversion. then try moving it, turning the antenna, etc.. it'll put you all over the map.22:20
shaprDisconnect: does anyone use rotating antennae?22:20
Disconnecti wouldn't be surprised if just leaving it sit still for a while showed wild (comparatively) variations in "position" - in our tests, with good radios, the at-rest variance tended to be 5-10 ft (with base nodes about every 20, plus some in offices and such)22:20
shaprouch22:21
Disconnectshapr: when you are carrying something, its unlikely to be held perfectly oriented to the base...22:21
Disconnectplus you need ot be able to vary the tx strength22:21
shaprIn that case, why use rssi?22:21
Disconnectshapr: instead of..?22:21
shackanshapr, Inductrack as in magnetic levitation transports ? (that's what wikipedia says at least)22:21
shaprWhy not use a "local" GPS?22:21
shaprshackan: yup22:21
Disconnectlike what?22:21
shaprI mean use your own GPS transmitters.22:22
shaprMaybe not on the same frequency, etc, but the basic principle of GPS gets around all those problems.22:22
shackanso you're looking for dedicated hardware, good luck22:23
shaprWhat about a coupla gnu usrps?22:23
Disconnectgps tells you the distance from a transmitter, given that the transmitter is in a known position/velocity and has an amazingly accurate clock. starting with $8-40k for the clock, that rapidly gets too expensive for any of the use-cases.22:23
shaprIs there a usable midpoint there?22:23

danielsjesus.  the drought in australia's getting so bad that previously huge rivers have dried up enough that dead bodies are surfacing.22:24

shaprBut these suggestions may be worth exactly what you're paying for them.22:26
* keesj appreciates the community here a lot22:27
Disconnectgps works on relative distance based on speed-of-light transit times. for "local" gps you need -more- accurate clocks, not less...22:27
