*** booiiing has quit IRC00:08
*** vivijim has quit IRC00:08
gpdchx: if i get stuck - you could always install a scratchbox and start compiling stuff -- you dn't actually need an N800 until the last step ;)00:09
*** myren__ has joined #maemo00:10
keesjwhy not write a remote ajax based drupal hard core code editor00:11
*** _follower_ has joined #maemo00:11
||cwMolagi: same as the 770, but the n800 should be able to deal with a bit higher resolution00:11
keesjthe power of the nokia is it's connectivity00:11
*** _follower_ has left #maemo00:12
gpdkeesj: this is more for offline work -- but then who is 'offline' these days ;)00:12
gpd... actually me all day yesterday thanks to Time Warner :#00:12
Molagiok, ive never had 770 so what softwares i need for converting? :)00:13
keesjslightly off topic but I almost get more maemo mail than spam00:13
*** Zer0Her0_ has quit IRC00:15
chxgpd: scratchbox?00:15
gpdhttp://scratchbox.org/ <- development platform for maemo -- cross compilation etc00:16
lle2gpd: um, I just built php-5.2.000:16
chxbeing online all day is easy from home with two ISPs00:16
chxlle2: OH!00:16
lle2gpd: using sb200:16
gpdlle2: you sir -- are a genius!00:16
chxlle2: Speed on N800?00:16
*** myren_ has quit IRC00:17
lle2no idea00:17
* chx is all ears 00:17
chxlle2: .deb ?00:17
lle2I can't test it, too lazy00:17
chxlle2: gpd is willing to test it for me :)00:17
lle2no .deb00:17
chx:(00:17
gpdlle2: what configure flags?00:17
lle2but anyway, it is definitely possible to build it00:17
lle2--disable-all00:17
chx:)00:17
lle2:}00:17
lle2I can't produce .debs at all on my gentoo box using sb200:18
lle2which is probably not terribly surprising00:18
lle2gpd: you should definitely be able to build it with sb100:19
gpdcompiling now... fingers crossed00:19
gpdBuild complete.00:19
gpdok - now what -- scp -r php-5.2 mytablet --> make install ?00:20
lle2hmm00:20
lle2I'd build it with ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php500:20
lle2make install inside sb100:20
lle2then make a tarball of that dir and extract it as root on the target00:20
lle2or put it on a sd card00:21
lle2or something00:21
* lle2 has never written a single maemo application00:21
Molagiwhat video bitrate is good for n800?00:22
Molagiwell i put 128 soon will know how it looks00:24
lle2daniels knows, but is probably too busy at LCA00:24
gpdanyone else going to SCALE?00:24
Pioi was considering it.. i went in 0500:24
Pioprobably not though00:24
gpdI booked up this am00:25
Piocool00:25
Pioyou live in southern california?00:25
gpdok - php5.tgz on tablet -- :)00:25

*** etrunko has quit IRC00:26
gpdnice nice -- i live in Santa Monica right now -- Ocean :)00:26
Piocool00:27
Pioprobably quite a bit warmer down there than here heh00:27
gpdnormally -- not right at this moment00:27
Pioits 28 here right now :)00:27
gpdok - you win00:27
Molagithis converting is really slow00:28
Pioactually, plumber just got here to replace some leaking pipes from freezing..00:28
gpd/usr/local/php5/bin $ ./php -v00:30
gpdPHP 5.2.0 (cgi) (built: Jan 15 2007 14:21:41)00:30

gpdLinux Nokia-N800-51 2.6.18-omap1 #2 Tue Dec 19 18:41:02 EET 2006 armv6l unknown00:30
gpdok -- how to test?00:30
lle2gpd: didn't you have some http server there? it must support cgi, no?00:31
gpdthhtpd -- running -- never used it -00:31
chxhttp://phplens.com/benchmark_suite/00:31
||cwphp -v00:33
||cwoh00:33
||cwphp -r 'some php code'00:33
gpdthe phpinfo() is giving me html -- copying now00:33
||cwi think you can do php -i as well00:34
||cwfor a non-html phpinfo00:34
* lle2 figures he doesn't know php at all after failing to write a hello world00:34
||cwheh00:34
chxgpd: I could pastebin you some very simple script which you could run00:35
mgedminum, wouldn't <html><head><title>Hello</title></head><body>Hello, world</body></html> be a valid PHP script?00:35
||cwnot exactly00:36
||cwwell, you could put it in a .php file and it's valid, but it's not script until you <?php00:36
gpdhttp://www.grahamdavies.net/nokia_php_test.html00:37
lle2I guess that means it works00:37
gpdseems to! :D00:37
gpdnot sure if drupal will work with --disable-all -- but hey -- php is a start!00:38
chxgpd: http://pastebin.ca/31787400:38
chxDrupal will not work with --disable-all at least PCRE is needed but it's a start. We shall see what my simple benchmark script will reveal.00:39
gpdhttp://www.grahamdavies.net/chx_test.html00:40
*** smcv has quit IRC00:40
gpdare those numbers good?00:40
chxonly ten times slower than my desktop00:40
lle2that's not bad at all00:40
gpdlet me run on my virtual server...00:40
* Jaffa should go round all the people porting/ported command line stuff since that should be trivial to add to mud's autobuilder, so people can concentrate on porting/patching/improving rather than packaging/releasing.00:41
gpdyup - about 10x slower -- but that is impressive00:41
chxthat's not unbearable00:42
chxvery, very promising00:42
chxbut this is not through a http server, I believe?00:42
chxjust command line00:43
gpdno - cmd line00:43
chxbut can't be a big difference, it'd be CGI anyways00:43
* chx adds Nokia N800 to the grocery list00:44
*** mgedmin has quit IRC00:44
gpdchx: we still have to worry about the total RAM - when sqlite is added -- but the thttpd was runing during that test -- very small00:45
chxis there a way to check how much memory is eaten by php?00:45
gpdjust dropping the .php script into /var/www/users gave raw php code -- not surprising -- will have to configure00:45
chxoh wait00:46
chxwe do not need a http daemon00:46
gpd?00:47
chxthere are at least two solutions to run Drupal from a shell00:47
c0ffeeis ville tervo here sometimes?00:47
chxone runs the #drupal run bot actually00:47
gpdyou mean like file://localhost/drupal/00:47
chxno, I mean php foo.php....00:47
gpdah - just for testing? then > foo.html00:48
chxyes00:48
Veggenmm, first crash.00:48
chxmore often than not , I do not much anyways just to see whether I get an error or a page00:48
chxthat even wc can tell :)00:49
gpdok - well inthat case more important to get php running with required bits00:49
gpdyou said pcre?00:49
*** jpetersen has quit IRC00:51
*** jpetersen has joined #maemo00:52
*** skallen has quit IRC00:52
chxyes00:53
chxand I do not think anything else is badly needed00:53
chxxml for some modules but ... we can live without them :)00:53
Molagiis mencoder better than nokia 770 video converter?00:53
gpd  --with-pcre-dir           FILTER: pcre install prefix ?00:54
||cwMolagi: I think the nokia 770 video converter is a frontend to mencoder00:54
Molagiok00:55
chxgpd: normally PHP source has a PCRE bundled00:55
||cwgpd: php has built in pcre support, becarefull with configure that you don't enable an external one, it won't work quite as well00:55
||cwor quite the same anyway00:55
gpdbut how do i enable it when i have --disable-all ?00:55
chxgpd: --with-pcre-regex00:56
gpdok -- and what about the xml --with-???00:57
chxgpd: oh. and --with-regex00:57
chxgpd: alas, Drupal 5 has a few ereg left. Or so I think. I need to check. Very soon --with-regex won't be needed00:57
chxgpd: I guess either --enable-xml or --with-xml00:58
chxgpd: give it both :)00:58
gpdok - making00:58
chxthis is the reaction over at #drupal to my announcement of what we have so far [23:51] <Bdragon> OOOoooo00:59
chxsome people apparently like it :D00:59
gpdgood good00:59

gpdI am getting a warning about not compiling redirection checking01:03
chxbah! we do not care for security here.01:04
gpd --enable-force-cgi-redirect ?01:04
chxor do you plan to do shared hosting with that PHP you just compiled :D ?01:04
gpdno -- but if no overhead then very simple...01:04
chxi guess it's very little overhead01:05
gpd/scratchbox/devkits/doctools/lib/libxml2.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format01:06
chxgpd: do not bother. http://www.phpbuilder.com/manual/en/security.cgi-bin.force-redirect.php01:06
chxgpd: that force cgi redirect is Apache specfic01:06
chxgpd: forget XML then. it's not important.01:07
lle2gpd: I would think there's expat for the target?01:07
*** matt_c has quit IRC01:07
gpdlle2: when I do the make install -- i shouldn't be using fakeroot -- correct? (brain fried atm)01:07
lle2gpd: doesn't matter, probably01:08
*** bilboed has quit IRC01:09
*** Ionakka has joined #maemo01:09
*** korc_ has left #maemo01:10
lle2gpd: if you want to make it politically correctly you should run make install and create the tarball within the same fakeroot session01:10
lle2gpd: or create a fakeroot db file and reuse that if you'd do it in separate fakeroot invocations01:11
lle2I don't understand how you ended up linking against _that_ libxml2.so01:12
*** Ionakka has left #maemo01:12
lle2that's pretty broken behaviour from sbox or from the devkit or both01:12
c0ffeedumm-di-dumm01:12
c0ffeei have the firmware for the bt chipset dumped01:12
*** bergie has left #maemo01:13
gpdso - should it be fakeroot ./configure --foo then fakeroot make then fakeroot make install ?01:13
c0ffeeit's just a clumsy version of the bluetooth-scripts commonly used by ti01:13
*** shackan has joined #maemo01:13
lle2gpd: no, it should be fakeroot <enter>01:13
lle2gpd: then inside that shell do the whole thing01:13
lle2gpd: that's the easy way01:14
lle2gpd: the hard and more interesting way is to:01:15
gpdlle2: ok -- anything else you would put in the configure to make it more generic?01:15
lle2gpd: fakeroot -s fakeroot.db ./configure --prefix...01:15
lle2etc01:15
lle2and use fakeroot -i to re-read that for the following invocations01:15
lle2but I'd just forget about all of this01:16
gpddone ;)01:16
lle2gpd: no idea about the configure options01:16
lle2that was the first time I've built php01:17
gpdya - me too01:17
lle2no, wait. I did it, maybe four years ago? but all the same. I don't really know it.01:17
*** benzea has quit IRC01:17
*** _follower_ has joined #maemo01:19
chxgpd: so it compiled with the two regex libs?01:19
gpdstill going...01:19
c0ffeesomebody interested in this bluetooth stuff?01:20
gpdshit - same error --01:20
gpdsh-2.05b# ./configure --disable-all --with-pcre-regex --with-regex  --enable-xml --with-xml --enable-libxml --prefix=/usr/local/php501:20
gpdsh-2.05b# make clean01:20
lle2gpd: remove the xml things01:20
gpd/scratchbox/devkits/doctools/lib/libxml2.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format01:21
lle2gpd: for some reason it's using that libxml2.so, which I bet is x86 library01:21
gpdi could force it to use a specific dir maybe?01:22
lle2c0ffee: I'm on the verge of maybe leaning towards being possibly interested :)01:22
lle2gpd: look at the expat flags01:22
lle2gpd: and maybe force it to use those, if possible01:22
c0ffeethat's a first step into the right direction! :)01:22
lle2c0ffee: ;)01:22
c0ffeeare you already back at nokia, lle2 ?01:22
lle2yup01:22
c0ffeecould you do me a favour and go to the guy doing the bt stuff for 77001:23
daniels'the guy'01:23
*** __follower__ has joined #maemo01:23
c0ffeeand ask him to just release a new firmware for the time being that enables SCO via HCI routing?01:23
lle2daniels: isn't ville there in australia?01:24
danielslle2: sure, but there also other connectivity guys, innit01:24
c0ffeeon the m-d list some nokia guy said it's possible but he isn't sure whether they may release the command01:24
c0ffeebut the firmware is just a list of "secret" hci commands01:24
lle2daniels: yes, I suppose01:24
lle2daniels: how's the conference?01:25
*** __follower__ has left #maemo01:26
c0ffeeis johan hedberg related to the bt stuff as well?01:26
lle2yup01:26

*** chenca has quit IRC01:29
pahartikc0ffee: is "SCO via HCI routing" related to possibly enabling Bluetooth audio device support on Nokia 770?01:29
c0ffeebt headset01:29
c0ffeenot a2dp01:29
pahartikc0ffee: A2DP would need something else?01:30
c0ffeei guess so01:31
*** [mbm] has joined #maemo01:31
jheA2DP is done over L2CAP which is at a higher level in the stack01:32
c0ffeejhe, do you think there's any chance a new fw is released?01:32
jhec0ffee: probably not an official one at least. something unofficial might be possible though. we'll have to wait for ville's response.01:33
c0ffeethat would be great01:33
c0ffeei mean, it would be a temporal solution anyway01:34
c0ffeebut it would rock to have bt headset finally01:34
c0ffeealso, it would boost the 770 a bit :)01:34

pahartikc0ffee: my Nokia HS-11W would probably like to co-operate with Nokia 770 as well01:35
*** tapz has quit IRC01:36
chxgpd: FYI I have mailed the guy who volunteered back in September to be the Drupal SQLite maintainer. If he is still willing, then I believe soon we will have our favourite little blue guy smiling on the N800 :)01:36
[mbm]hmm.. I'm getting the feeling that the nokia update util doesn't do a full reset (device isn't booting properly)01:36
gpdchx: very cool -- for now I can test with remote mysql maybe01:37
gpdbut i need to get thttpd to use cgi php01:37
c0ffeeso, enough for today01:37
c0ffeeg'n801:37
chxgpd: yes. that would most probably work but then you need to get the mysql or the mysqli extension and a mysql client library as well01:37
gpdtrue :(01:38
chxgpd: and you can visit http://drupal.org/project/bot and reuse the script that runs the bot if you do not want to config CGI01:38
[mbm]any directions on resetting an 800?01:38
*** _follower_ has left #maemo01:38
gpdchx: so i can just download the bot from above url and install on n800?01:40
[mbm](fyi - the busybox in the maemo/bora repository appears broken)01:41
*** Zer0Her0 has joined #maemo01:42
lle2gpd: you should configure the cgi, imho01:42
lle2gpd: that would make it a generally neat thing to have a local webserver, maybe even for other things than just drupal development ;P01:42
*** tb has quit IRC01:43
*** |tbb| has joined #maemo01:43
Pioanyone know of imake ports to maemo?01:45
*** _follower_ has joined #maemo01:45
lle2imake?01:45
Pioyeah like xmkmf01:45
Pioi guess its no big deal, i can run xmkmf on my normal box then tweak the makefile01:45
* Pio planning on porting x2x to maemo01:46
Pioalready got it to build, now i just need to make it friendly with the user input methods of maemo01:46
chxgpd: you just want to reuse bot_start.php so you can run Drupal from CLI but a) you need to edit it b) without a DB, you won't get far.01:47
chxlle2: yeah, a webserver with CGI could be great for other neat stuff01:47
danielslle2: not too bad, thanks01:48
danielslle2: still just getting started01:48
*** _follower_ has left #maemo01:49
[mbm]ugh; not even getting to teh charging screen :/01:50
*** fab has quit IRC01:50
chxdo we have good ideas where the N800 can be had in Europe for somewhat normal prices? or just import it from the USA?01:50
|tbb|anyone got the navkit allready?01:50
* [mbm] goes to try the linux flash util01:51
Zer0Her0does the n800 come with a case still?01:52

*** spect has quit IRC01:54
*** tnbt has left #maemo01:55
[mbm]well, the 770 had a shell you flip around, the 800 doesn't01:56
*** ssvb has quit IRC01:57
chxthat's bad :( from what I saw, the 770 could stand upright without holding it with that shell?02:05
sp3001n800 has a built in stand02:06
lle2just wrap it with duct tape and it'll be alright02:06
chxsp3001: it has ? great.02:06
chxI guess screen protection film is already available02:06
[mbm]comes with film on the screen02:08
gpdwhere does maemo put it's daemon facility messages?02:08
gpdsomeone on #thttpd is helping me setup php-cgi - but keeps asking difficult questions02:09
gpdi have no /var/log/syslog02:09
lle2gpd: I think syslog's been configured to keep a buffer in memory instead of writing out to a file?02:10
lle2I can't remember where that would live in the fs02:10
lle2chx: I've never used a protective film on any of my gadgets, I think such films are lame :)02:11
gpdso how would i setup a simple php script to run as cgi?02:12
gpd#!/usr/local/bin/php5/php02:12
gpd<?php phpinfo() ?>02:12
gpdEOF02:12
gpdinto /var/www/cgi-bin/test.php02:12
lle2chmod +x /var/www/cgi-bin/test.php02:12
chxlle2: well. I find some form of protection always valuable. for example a good shell, like the Zeroshock for my valued laptop. I once landed on my back with the laptop in the backback. Not a problem. Zeroshock is great...02:13
gpdlle2: yes -- done that02:13
chxlle2: so, probably a nice shell instead of those films?02:13
gpdNo input file specified.02:13
lle2chx: I once landed on top of my ipod, twisted the bloody hard disk as well ;)02:14
chxlle2: ipod survived?02:14
lle2chx: kinda02:14
lle2chx: it kept playing until the battery ran out, then it never recovered02:14
lle2chx: I only noticed the damage after getting home and wondering what made that odd sound02:15
chxwell, the Dell X1 had zero problems after my ninety kgs flatted it. But it was in a MEC Megabyte backpack + a zeroshock so probably it would have survived a hand grenade or something :)02:15
lle2;)02:16
lle2I try to avoid carrying hand grenades in my back pockets02:16
*** shackan_ has joined #maemo02:16
chxthese zeroshocks are demoed by putting a sheet of glass in it and dropping a steel ball on the shell.02:17
chxit looks like a cheap magic trick but it's not02:17
chxlle2: I never got around buying an iPod though...02:19
lle2it was great while it lasted, quite literally ;)02:19
glassipods can take a lot of beating02:20
lle2nowadays I only use the shuffle, small enough to fit in the front pockets so no danger of me smashing it accidentally02:20
*** nnod__ has quit IRC02:20

*** shackan has quit IRC02:21
lle2once I figured a strategy for navigating the playlist it's not too bad from usability point either02:21
*** nnod__ has joined #maemo02:21
lle2gpd: try the cgi with a simple shell script first, maybe?02:23
* pahartik does not use back pockets for anything02:23
gpdlle2: yes it runs from ./test.php02:24
lle2gpd: ok, well then it should work02:25
*** shackan_ has quit IRC02:27
[mbm]hmm .. so what does it mean if I only see the initial nokia logo and then it switches off?02:27
lle2[mbm]: empty battery?02:27
[mbm]nope, if I plug it into the charger it just cycles that over and over02:27
lle2or was that already suggested last time...02:28
lle2ok..02:28
[mbm]never even gets to the 'charging' screen02:28
lle2you rootfs is corrupt02:28
lle2maybe even initfs02:28
lle2or probably initfs as well02:28
[mbm]thought as much but I just tried reflashing with the same results02:28
lle2hmm02:28
lle2then I'd take it back to the store and get another one02:29
[mbm]can't, this was the last one in the area02:29
[mbm]besides, there has to be some way to recover02:29
lle2did it work initially?02:29
[mbm]sure, but after an update to busybox it never survived a powercycle02:30
lle2oh02:30
lle2what are you using to reflash it with?02:30
[mbm]busybox-1.1.3-3.osso17 -> busybox-1.1.3-3.sdk202:30
[mbm]tried the windows app, using linux now02:31
[mbm]same results both times02:31
*** sp3001 has quit IRC02:31
lle2you should try to force it to reflash the initfs02:31
[mbm]flasher-3.0 -F RX-34_2007SE_2.2006.51-6_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R02:31
lle2maybe if you'd extract the kernel, initfs and rootfs from that .bin file and try reflashing just the initfs?02:32
lle2flasher-3.0 should be able to extract them02:32

JaffaKermitTheFragger: shouldn't be any reason a Bluetooth barcode reader shouldn't work. My one concern with N800s vs. Workabouts is ruggedness.14:17
KermitTheFraggerJaffa:  believe me, you dont want to drop a workabout :)14:17
KermitTheFraggerits pretty much end of story14:17
KermitTheFraggerso i guess that will be the same with the n80014:18
KermitTheFraggerand the n800 is a LOT cheaper, so replacing it will be cheaper14:18
JaffaSounds perfect then :)14:20
tigertI think the 770 is a lot more durable than the N80014:20
tigertthough nokia products do take quite a lot of beating without breaking14:20
KermitTheFraggertigert:  in what way ?14:20
glassthe hardcover probably helps14:20
tigertnot the hardcover14:20
tigertbut the 770 is very very sturdy14:21
glasswell it's extra layer14:21
glasson the corners14:21
tigertyeah that too14:21
tigertbut I dont use a hardcover on mine14:21
KermitTheFraggeris there a rugged case for either one ?14:21
glassanyways, i'd imagine 770 surviving falling a few times14:21
tigertglass: the standard presentation trick for the 770 was to casually "oops" and drop it to the floor in a nice swing14:22
tigertand then continue as if nothing had happened14:22

KermitTheFraggerhmm nokia got everything from speakers to foldable bluetooth keyboards, but no cases :(14:27
abKermitTheFragger: they don't have additional cases for 770 or N80014:28
KermitTheFraggerab: darn :(14:29
KermitTheFraggerare there comming any ?14:29
abdon't think so. I've talked about rugged cases nearly a year ago but they were not interested yet14:29

abKermitTheFragger: you'd better talk to Otterbox.com or similar vendors14:35

Guardiannever used XML in C or C++, only in Java14:58

k-sdaniels: so, the xorg runs at 55hz?15:00
dottedmagkoen: yeah. it's kind-of-SAX.15:00
k-sdaniels: but is there any way to get the vertical sync signal?15:01
k-sdaniels: we're porting canola to run on n800, but it flicks too much since software runs much faster now15:01
k-sdaniels: it would be good to have backingstore enabled on X or at least double-buffer in SDL15:01
k-sdaniels: but SDL is reporting 0kb video memory and no double-buffer support15:02

seebsSo, the N800 doesn't come with scp, ftp, or anything like them.  If I wanted an app not to depend on those, and I wanted it to copy a file over the network, what would be a good way?16:22
Jaffaseebs: add "Depends: openssh" to your debian/control file16:23
seebsI really don't want to do that, though, because then no one who hasn't set up the apt stuff can install it.16:23
seebsI'm trying to build a clean, self-contained, application.  :(16:23

gpdhas anyone tried lighttpd on tablet before?18:27
gpdi just built it and tested with a very basic configuration and it seems to work18:28
gpdif i can get php with fast-cgi and lighttpd running - then :D18:28
JaffaLooks like a good contender for mud-builder.garage.maemo.org18:28
gpdJaffa: i had to build from source -- the debian package gave me builddep issues18:29
gpdand as supplied by debian it would be too heavy i thinks -- ie. mysql18:29
keesjgpd, that is no problem18:29
Jaffagpd: Yeah, I've found building from source tarballs works best (e.g. https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/*checkout*/trunk/packages/imagemagick.xml?root=mud-builder&rev=40 is the ImageMagick package from upstream.18:30
gpdyup - i used vanilla lighttpd-1.4.13.tgz and all good18:30
dottedmagbtw, is there effort to create single repository of maemo packages? analogous to, e.g., ubuntu universe?18:30
Jaffagpd: Only "url" should be necessary for lighttpd from the look of it.18:31
Jaffadottedmag: yes - http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ExtrasRepository18:31
gpdlighttpd is very well regarded and would be a boon on the 77/800 imho18:31
Jaffagpd: though you might want to specify other stuff.18:31
gpddid you see that i got php running yesterday?18:31
dottedmagJaffa: well, then how it is related to mud-builder?18:32
Disconnectgpd: hey cool18:32
Jaffagpd: Briefly, but I was trying to spend time with the littl 'un.18:32
gpdit was working with thttpd and basic php and sqlite tests performed well18:32
Jaffadottedmag: mud-builder's designed for the kind of thing gpd's doing: take upstream sources (either Debian or tarballs atm), compile them for Maemo, apply any specific patches and build Maemo compliant debs (e.g. "user/" prefixes on Section, XB-Maemo-Icon etc.) and then handle the uploading of the package to extras.18:33
dottedmagJaffa: so, they are like buildd and unstable. ok.18:34
dottedmagJaffa: Debian ones, I meant.18:34
keesjdottedmag, it also makes it possible for others to reproduce a build or be responsible of a certain target18:34
*** daf` has quit IRC18:38
*** snorkelyd has joined #maemo18:39
*** lardman|away is now known as lardman18:39
Jaffai.e. gpd could provide a lighttpd.xml (and possibly .patch) and I/the MUD team would worry about uploading them.18:40
Jaffadottedmag: exactly. But lighter weight and designed for a system where the source debs might not be compatible with the system in which you're running.18:40
dottedmagnice18:41
dottedmagwhat about encouraging different developers to use extras? Everyone who makes Debian packages likes to put them in Unstable, while I don't see too much in extras.18:42
dottedmagAs little as several lines of text on the pages related to package-building and available software would help greatly.18:43
Jaffadottedmag: I agree. Grab Ferenc next time he's about.18:43
Jaffa(or send a mail to maemo-dev, I suppose ;-))18:44
dottedmagok18:44
* Jaffa 's idea behind mud is that people spend too long packaging (boring) and too long recompiling upstream stuff for simple ports like lighttpd, rsync etc., when our time as developers would be much better spent on either new Maemo stuff using those tools or Maemo-customisations to those packages.18:45

pikanapsuwhat is rootstrap?23:46
kenderyes23:46
pikanapsuis toolchain rootstrap?23:46
trenkapikanapsu: no, it contains some kind of a root file system23:47
|tbb|where do i get an overview of running applications on n800?23:47
Veggendo people normally add the mistral repositories to the N800 device? I see a lot of applications have dependencies from there....23:47
Veggenor is it risky?23:47
pikanapsufrom maemo 2.1 install documentation "Double-check the packages you are extracting. Rootstraps must not be extracted to the / directory, only the Scratchbox packages."23:47
trenkasuihkulokki: seems I have an idea, but I do not have HW to test it23:47
pikanapsuwhat is rootstrap package?23:48
|tbb|anyone else got the problem that google connects and disconnects to the gtalk thing?23:48
trenkapikanapsu: rootstraps should be extracted from inside of scratchbox23:48
pikanapsuname one rootsrap23:49
trenkapikanapsu: scratchbox itself should be extracted to your machine's /23:49

pikanapsumaybe somebody should update the 2.1 manual and add warning for 2.6.18 kernel ?23:58
