dogbixHow about 'freedom universal bt keyboard' "works with blackberry, pda...etc"....00:23
konfooim setting up my own torrent server00:23
dogbixI was wondering how the n800 handles it? does it still pop up the virtual on screen keyboard?00:23

Tak|770I think 'universal' is a good sign00:24
dogbixThanks ;)00:24
minrakonfoo - nice... i suppose visibility on a big torrent site isn't particuarly useful to the project - as long as its on garage or something00:26
minrathanks for easing the way into scratchbox konfoo00:27

dieguitoif there was an epiphany port for maemo, would anyone use it?01:09
dieguitowould anyone prefer mozilla rendering over opera rendering?01:09
s-ndh-cisnt there a gecko based browser allready for maemo?01:10
jtokashkonfoo, trying to connect.  says no seeds01:11
dieguitohmm I think I heard someone saying that there's "minimo" but it basically sucks01:11
jtokash2 peers, 0 seeds01:13
*** jpetersen has quit IRC01:14

obrawhy does minimo suck?01:15

*** NickDe has joined #maemo01:18
Tak|770I can't imagine preferring an epiphany clone over a FF clone01:24
Tak|770why not contribute to minimo and have one good gecko browser instead of two halfass ones?01:26
sp3001anyone happen to be on friendly terms with nautilus-sendto?01:29
sp3001itdoesn't find my bt devices unless I have them poke at the laptop from their end, whereas hcitool scan does find stuff01:30
dieguitoobra: no idea, I heard something about that but I can't remember clearly about it and I haven't try it01:32
*** ajturner has quit IRC01:33
dieguitoTak|770: I would use it if it retains the "normal" Epiphany functionality and style, but of course that would be more a matter of choice and not merit01:33

konfoook its working now01:42
minrahmm azureus says i need to portforward in order to share the torrent / accept incoming connections01:43
*** jpetersen has joined #maemo01:43
minrabut ive shared before with torrents -- maybe the tracker negotiates incoming requests within the stream and the bittorrent client initiates the outgoing connection for upload01:44
*** ajturner has joined #maemo01:46
* minra reads up on torrent+nat+fw01:46

jacquesis the OMAP2420 ARM1136 a ARM1136JF-S or a ARM1136J-S ?01:58

ssvbjacques: I guess if 'F' is hardware floating point support, then OMAP2420 is ARM1136JF-S02:09
jacquesssvb, really? excellent! how do you know?02:10

minraok now i'm getting Tracker: [Failure reason "Tracker error 3"]02:17
ssvbjacques: you can check ARM docs: http://www.arm.com/pdfs/DDI0211H_arm1136_r1p1_trm.pdf02:17
konfoominra: hmmmmm02:17
*** sbaturzio has quit IRC02:18
ssvbjacques:  "The ARM1136JF-S processor includes a VFP. The ARM1136J-S does not include a VFP, and therefore does not have any VFP registers."02:18
jacquesssvb, yeah, but how did you know the OMAP 2420 includes the F core? I can't find that documented02:19
jacquesTI's documentation only says "ARM1136"02:20
ssvbjacques: /proc/cpuinfo for N800 has 'vfp' feature: http://thoughtfix.blogspot.com/2007/01/critical-question-answered-yes-n800-is.html02:20

|tbb|what this new image for 800 is good for?04:45
jacquesdoes scratchbox really need to be at /scratchbox or is the documentation at scratchbox.org out of date?04:56
TakI thought I read a mail about not needing it to be at /scratchbox , but now I can't find it04:59
jacquesI thought I saw something about that too - a new feature for maemo or something05:00
*** ajturner has quit IRC05:00

s-ndh-cjacques: xterm -> ifconfig ?05:04
s-ndh-ci think there some applet for the home screen too that displays the ip05:05
|tbb|called iphome05:05
|tbb|whats the img good 4?05:06
jacquess-ndh-c, ok, I just installed xterm and I can do it with /sbin/ifconfig  but I was hoping there was an easier way05:08
jacquesWillySilly, thanks05:08
jacquesI read you could install apps to a SD card but how do I tell application manager to do that ?05:08
|tbb|jacques, iphome applet does it!05:09
s-ndh-cmaybe unpack the deb and change the install target,then build a new package from that05:09
s-ndh-cnot sure05:10
s-ndh-cnever tried that05:10

*** vol has joined #Maemo08:13

keesjSo you want to know how to adds repositories, is that your question?08:16
SyntaxNinjano. I'm wondering what repositories I need to add, and if adding repositories is the right thing to get the applications Ii'm interested in.08:18
SyntaxNinjaI just added the maemo one listed at link above, and am updating, seems like a largeish download, so I guess it's a big list :)08:18
keesj was big but I only tried the 770 version of that http://repository.maemo.org/08:20

[mbm]any way to get some wifi logs to debug connection issues?11:01
kulveicd seems to log to syslog (on n800)11:02
[mbm]didn't seem to be a syslogd running on my 80011:02
kulveI installed it with apt-get as root..11:04
[mbm]busybox version with a memroy log or are you actually burning up flash for the logs?11:05
kulveI think I'm burning up the flash11:05
kulveand the stuff seems to log a lot to syslog11:06
[mbm]hmm.. don't like logging to flash devices; makes them wear out quicker11:06
[mbm]huh.. iwevent actually works .. didn't expect it to11:06
kulvemaybe the /var/log can be a link to e.g. /media/mmc2/logs?11:07
kulve(the internal mmc)11:07
[mbm]yeah, was thinking that11:07
[mbm]got an access point that it refuses to connect to, and attempting to connect means that the next time you scan you won't see ANY networks11:08
[mbm]something really buggy with the wpa handling11:08
kulveodd11:08
[mbm]usually have to switch to offline mode and back again to restart the wifi before it'll see anything11:08
kulvethere seems to be issues with wpa2 at least11:08
[mbm]also seems to have issues if the wireless is extremely active11:09
kulveI'm using wpa-psk and it has worked fluently. Except that I can't copy a 500M file to mmc with scp. It get's stalled after a 100M or so11:09
[mbm]if another wifi client starts hogging the wifi my n800 usually gets disconnected11:10
[mbm]wow, tons of syslog spam11:17
kulveyep11:17
kulvee.g. filemanager logs a lot. And the ics11:17
kulveicd11:17
kulvesome init scripts rotates the logs on every boot, so they shouldn't grow up very big..11:18
[mbm]doesn't look like it hooked into the rc.d directories to launch on boot11:19
[mbm]hmm, looks like the cron job would start it11:22
kulveI have /etc/init.d/syslogd11:23
*** atla has joined #maemo11:23
kulvesysklogd:    mv -f /var/log/syslog /var/log/syslog.old11:24
[mbm]sure, but the typical sysv init style is to have a /etc/rc${runlevel}.d/ with an S??sysklogd linked to /etc/init.d/sysklogd11:25
kulvehmm..11:25
[mbm]just that with this, the cron script runs "/etc/init.d/sysklogd reload-or-restart" every day/week which spawns it11:26
kulveI do have the syslog up'n'running after every boot11:26
kulvelooks a bit weird arrangement11:26
* [mbm] walks through the startup scripts11:27
[mbm]inittab is showing /etc/init.d/rcS, then init.d/rc with a runlevel of 211:29
[mbm]rc does a loop through rc2.d/11:29
[mbm].. looks like a standard sysv bootup11:30
*** Tahitibob has joined #maemo11:30
[mbm]ah, rc2.d/S10sysklogd11:31
kulveI did do find on the /etc and still missed that..11:32
[mbm]missed it because it didn't show on the dpkg -L11:32
kulvethose are usually made with update-rc.d on the postinst11:33
[mbm]must be debian style update-rcd11:33
[mbm]right11:33
*** _JP has left #maemo11:34
[mbm]hmm .. now I just need a gconf-editor for all this gnome style crap11:36
kulve[mbm]: I'm doing a CP applet for starting and stopping /etc/init.d/* stuff. So with that it's easy to enable syslog only when you need it :)11:37
[mbm]:)11:37
[mbm]hmm amazing, don't see gconf-editor in any of the standard repositories11:38
kulvethere's gconftool-2 ;)11:38
[mbm]yeah, that's the annoying commandline version11:38
[mbm]pretty nasty to browse with it11:39

keesjI just did a apt-get update but after that apt-get upgrade downloads the headers again :(12:40
keesjinz , I will first need to solve these problems sorry http://paste-it.net/102612:42
inzkeesj, the W: in the beginning means that it's a warning12:43
inzkeesj, you can safely ignore those12:43
*** Molagi has joined #maemo12:43
inzkeesj, and you can fix the first one by: wget -q -O - http://inz.fi/pubkey.txt | apt-key add -12:46
inzThe other two are not fixable... (unless you disable the tableteer repos)12:46
keesjI never get updates from them anyway (osso-xterm was kept back) http://paste-it.net/102712:48
inzkeesj, then "force" it's upgrade with apt-get install osso-xterm12:49
keesjDo i need to restart for the new fonts?12:53
keesjthe C button on the right is not fully visible http://box.mmapps.net/~keesj/screenshot01.png12:53
keesjare those control chars?12:54
inzYeah, the C is for control12:56
inzThe left and right are for screen, they act a bit funny when used without it ;)12:56
inzAnd yes, it seems you need to reboot to get bitstream fonts working.12:57
inzIt's probably due to launcher...12:57
keesjyep looks nice http://box.mmapps.net/~keesj/screenshot00.png12:58
inzGood to know it works, thanks =)12:59
inzbtw, you can disable the toolbar from view menu12:59
keesjthe control presses n and n how do I use control?12:59
inzPress the c once (so that it stays down) and press the key you want ctrlified13:00
keesjI need to install screen right?13:00
inzTo get the < and > keys working, you need screen, yes13:00
keesjI have compiled irssi this morning13:00
inzBut I can see from the first screenshot, that they're working as they're supposed to13:00
keesjit seams a bit strange to have both tabs and screen running13:01
inzi never use tabs...13:01
inzThey cost way too much screen space13:01
keesjperhaps you can make the vertical room between the buttons larger?13:02
[mbm]last time I tried the osso-xterm from mamemo-hackers it didn't work on the n800; had to get the one from repository.mameo.org13:03
inzkeesj, Not really, it's a GtkToolbar, the spacings aren't tunable13:03
inz[mbm], it was probably before I fixed it ;)13:03
keesjinz, from what deb did you install screen?13:06
keesjand you you run from flash card ?13:06

keesjinz can't you add hspacers/springs or similar?13:08
inzkeesj, i could add some separators, but i doubt they'd fix the gfx13:10
AD-N770suihkulokki, do you tried it with the N800 ? do you know if it installs/runs properly ?13:11
[mbm]inz: xterm works on the 800 now13:13

keesjthe [c] is very nice ,13:16
AD-N770thanks inz13:16
inz[mbm], well, it installs you pretty fonts and should launch faster ;)13:17
[mbm]map the c to the center button on the touchpad and it'd be useful13:17
keesjcenter button?13:17
inz[mbm], the problem is that the "center" button is used to launche thumb keyboard13:17
AD-N770next job is try to fix the tuner tool for N800, probably during next weekend13:17
inz[mbm], and one shouldn't break system wide things like that13:18
[mbm]inz: yeah, which isn't too useful with xterm imho13:18
inz[mbm], granted, there is a lot of space you can ram your thumb into ;)13:18
keesjinz did you create separate packages or not?13:18
[mbm]well, that and I really don't care for a keyboard that covers the entire screen13:19
inzkeesj, separate packages for what?13:19
[mbm]I sort of like to see the app I'm controlling13:19
keesjfor the 770 and the 80013:19
inzkeesj, the new vte library is the same for both, but the xterm package itself is different for both13:20
jtrainz: nice xterm, I had plans to hack it too - but digressed by programming games :)13:20
*** koen has quit IRC13:20
inzkeesj, if I build it on mistral, it depends on packages that aren't installed by default on the N800, and I don't want to depend on the repository.maemo.org13:20
jtrainz: I also had idea of full screen translucent keyboard, that might be even usefull13:20
keesjjtra, do you really expect people to remeber the passwords of your game?13:20
inzjtra, translucency is just slow w/o hw acceleration...13:21
inzjtra, of course you can go pseudo, but then you lose the benefits13:21
suihkulokkiAD-N770: no, I just have a 77013:22
jtrakeesj: heh, I done that in the same way as I did in 1998, but it is easy to change it13:24
keesjjtra I have read your webpage,13:24
jtrainz: if it would be integrated into libvte drawing it should be fast enough13:25
[mbm]hmm is there a statusbar-cpu for the 800 yet?13:27
inzjtra, you've got a point there...13:28
inz[mbm], nope, thanks for reminding...13:28
keesjinz, what deb repository when you want to port something to the maemo platform13:30
keesjwhat ode /lua version did you use when testing xmoto?13:30
keesjmud allows us to fetch source debs from different repositories but most seam useless to me13:31
jtrabtw, now I'm porting my Shishen Sho game clone from ruby and tk to python and gtk13:31
inzkeesj, the one that happends to be on the machine I use, usually debian/testing or ubuntu/edgy13:31
inzkeesj, I don't remember the versions, they were at work, and I'm at home now.13:32
inzkeesj, they weren't bleeding edge, that I do remember13:32

[mbm]hmm .. n800: /sys/power/state says it supports both standby and mem; any way in the ui to suspend to mem?13:43
inzafaik no13:45
[mbm]hrm.13:46
[mbm]lately I've been doing a lock screen and just letting it sleep .. mem would be better on the battery13:46
inzyou can add a "soft poweroff" option to powerkeymenu, if you remove a comment from /etc/systemui/systemui.xml, but I don't think it does that13:47
[mbm]could do it in mce; PowerKeyShortAction=softpoweroff13:48
[mbm]did an 'echo mem > state' and it seemed to work fine13:48
inzOnce I get the cpu applet fixed, you might be able to do a "sh -c 'echo "echo mem > /sys/power/state"|sudo gainroot'"13:51
[mbm]hmm soft poweroff seems to be a mock thing13:52
[mbm]doesn't drop the voltage13:52

[mbm]heh, https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=943 .. talking about the 770's cover mode vs the 80014:08
MDKyeah14:09
MDKthe crappy part is that when you "lock device" it still responds to keys14:10
MDKI mean, "lock device" should be an extended "lock touchscreen and keys"14:10
[mbm]yeah, I'm looking for a proper 800 standby mode14:10
[mbm]easy to do from the terminal :/14:10
MDKso when you "lock it" it diplsays the lock code dialog but keys are all active. So sooner or later "cancel" will get pressed in your pocket14:11
MDKeffectively shutting down the device completely14:11
MDKthis is moronic14:11
[mbm]if you play with /sys/power/state you can put the device into standby and it only appears to respond to the power button; dmesg shows the voltage for most of the key systems shut off14:12

[mbm]I turned r&d mode on to debug a bootup issue and never bothered to turn it back off14:38
kulveyeah, I haven't enabled R&d either14:38
[mbm]the obvious differences are that it displays the version numbers on the bootup screen and doesn't make you hold down the power for 3 sec14:39

wumpusprobably it puts the prism chip in some weird state, but haven't been able to find out what15:21

kulvedoes it get any further if you disable the rebooting stuff with the flasher?15:26
wumpusit just  bricks it15:26
wumpusyeah, I guess I have to experiment with the flasher now a bit15:26
[mbm]it's the 1.1.3-3.sdk2 iirc15:26
wumpuscan I also fetch the filesystem from it in some way?15:26
[mbm]and don't ask me how I fixed mine, because I had to play with the flasher before mine booted15:27
kulvewumpus: probably not15:27
wumpusit's a great update, I was really so tired of seeing other things than the nokia startup screen :)15:27
[mbm]put mine in r&d mode just to watch it boot15:27
kulveno-lifeguard-reset might help it go further but if busybox is messed up, it may not help at all..15:28
[mbm]I had updated to busybox, noticed my xterm wouldn't start and hunted all over the palce for the correct version of the busybox package15:29

wumpusfind: Filesystem loop detected; `./scratchbox/users/orion/scratchbox' has the same device number and inode as a directory which is 3 levels higher in the filesystem hierarchy15:36
wumpusinteresting :)15:36
c0ffeesee the mount output15:38
[mbm]you can do tricks like that wqith mount -o bind /directory /directory15:39
wumpusahh I see, mount is used to link a filesystem somewhere else15:39
[mbm]it can be15:39
*** Robot101 has joined #maemo15:40
*** myren__ has joined #maemo15:40
c0ffeeif you shut down the sbox using /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_ctl stop15:41
[mbm]mount basically takes two args, a source and a directory to place it .. there's a few obscure options like '-o move' and '-o bind' that let you give an existing directory as source15:41
[mbm]find also has options to stop at filesystem boundaries15:42
c0ffeethe mounts are removed15:42
c0ffeeand with unionfs you can also overlay mount15:42
[mbm]cache on write15:43
*** smcv has joined #maemo15:43
keesjcache on write?15:44
keesjnever mind15:44
[mbm]term used to describe filesystems such as unionfs15:44
[mbm]basically you take two filesystems, eg one fully populated and one completely empty15:45
[mbm]and you use union to bind them as one virtual filesystem15:45
*** jose__ has joined #maemo15:45
[mbm]so if the populated filesystem was a cdrom, it's now writable15:45
keesjthat sounds like  copy on write for read only file system15:45
[mbm]and all changes get stored to the other filesystem15:45
[mbm]exactly15:46
[mbm]problem is that they tend to be braindead and not notice when the file has been reverted back to it's original state15:46
keesjthe last linux journal / magazine also talked about a new kind of crash-safe file system that was not journalling15:47
[mbm]so you change the file, it creates a copy, you revert it, you still have copies on both filesystems15:47
keesjI was thinking about that for the mud builder  and the wmware cdrom15:47
[mbm]I use mini_fo for my router distribution15:48
[mbm]basically a smaller version of uinionfs15:48
keesjYou can provide a environment for developers that can "trashed" after each use15:49
[mbm]well, reason I did it was because squashfs gets better compression than jffs215:49
[mbm]so I crammed everything into squashfs then created a jffs2 overlay to make it seem writable15:50

[mbm]wumpus: been there; I don't remember what fixed it but I did put it in r&d mode16:54

wumpusand now it boots in production mode again too17:01
[mbm]inz: yep17:01
[mbm]wumpus: left mine in r&d .. more fun17:01
[mbm]really wonder how a busybox applet could render the device unbootable even after reflashing17:02
kulveno easily..17:02
*** myren__ has joined #maemo17:02
kulvebut there are bits in the flash that are not overwritten on reflash I think17:02
[mbm]almost sounds like the busybox app puked all over the r&d settings area17:03
kulvee.g. I think it remembers ther R&D mode over reflash17:03
*** atla has quit IRC17:03
[mbm]well yeah, flash is partitioned, look at /proc/mtd for a list of partitions17:04
[mbm]boot, config, kernel, initrd, root17:04
*** jose__ has quit IRC17:08

inz[mbm], if you run /usr/bin/osso-xterm top it doen't launch top in new tab?17:10
[mbm]heh, my car has one of those .. service light comes on .. why? car needs servicing? nope, it just wants you to drag it into the shop so someone can hit the reset button17:10
[mbm]inz: no, that dumps me back to the commandline without doing anythign .. if I give it a full path then it just stalls on the commandline until I kill it17:11
inzhmm, weird...17:12
[mbm]oh, would also be nice if the commandline syntax matched the real xterm program (including things like -rv)17:12
inz[mbm], yeah, but it's awfully lot of work ;)17:13
[mbm]I know17:14
[mbm]just mean when you add an option, add it in the same way that a normal xterm takes it17:15
wumpus[mbm]: it's been common practice for nokia devices too, I hacked the 3310 series a bit back in the days, if something strange happened you needed to jump through all kinds of hoops to reset 'contact service' mode :)17:16

keesjinz, perhaps you can add a copy&paste option on the osso-xterm18:09
timelesskeesj: xterm doesn't have copy/paste in the menu?18:09
keesjyes  , but not the combined action18:10
timelesswhy bother?18:10
timelessthe stupid clipboard will replace itself w/ your selection18:10
timelesspasting will paste the xterm selection18:10
keesjnot the clipboard is not replaced when I do a selection , but that would also be fine by me18:12
timelesshrm, indeed18:12
timelesswell, from memory, i sure remember having my clipboard destroyed when i make a selection18:12
timelessit always annoyed me18:12
keesjit is the same difference between windows and unix copy&paste18:13
keesjI prefer the windows aproach , it just happen to often on that I want to replace and url in the brower and by error select a new part18:14
timelesspersonally if someoen's going to spend time enhancing the xterm18:15
keesj(for firefox you can paste with the middle mouse button anywhere)18:15
timelessi'd rather they fix it so that the on screen keyboard doesn't trigger18:15
timelessum, that's wrong18:15
timelessplease don't spread any opinions about firefox18:15
timelessanyway, doesn't trigger resizing of the terminal18:16
timelessbecause it costs me a lot in GPRS packet $18:16
timelessin firefox, middle clicking can do a number of things18:16
timelessit can open the current  link in a new window18:16
timelessit can close the clicked tab18:16
timelessit can load the clipbord into the current tab18:16
timelessand it can paste the clipboard into an edit field18:16

ferulokiwi wants pygtk 2.820:14
ferulonot gtk 2.820:14

c0ffeewhen i got the latest kiwi on my bora, it complained during the built phase20:15
c0ffeeindeed20:15
feruloit would fail because of the python in the scratchbox20:15
feruloI was wondering how to fix it...20:15
ferulothe easy solution is not build a kiwi package20:15
ferulobut uncompress the tarrball20:15
feruloand doing:20:16
ferulopython2.5 ./setup.py intall20:16
ferulo:)20:16
ferulothen you can just install gazpacho on top of it20:16
ferulothen grab gazpacho-hildon from stage.maemo.org20:16
feruloand buld the package (you need to edit the control file to change dependecies from python2.4 to python2.5)20:16
c0ffeedoesn't kiwi compile with python2.4 as well?20:17
ferulothe problem with python2.4 from scratchbox is that it tries to find pygtk package, and looks on /scratchbos/tools/lib/python2.4/site-packages20:18
feruloor something like that20:18
feruloand you don't want that path20:18
feruloyou want the one coming from python2.5 from maemo extras20:18
ferulothat is the on which has pygtk installed on it20:18

ferulobtw MDK , don't post prototipes pictures! :)23:10
MDKferulo: I got that shit working and I know exactly what needs to be done23:10
s-ndh-ci mean i build the runtime for arm and copied the managed stuff from my x86 install23:10
s-ndh-cbut i would like to have a package23:11
MDKferulo: but I need help with packaging ;)23:11
s-ndh-cnt just coping the files over23:11
ferulook. I hope I can go tomorrow to the office23:11
s-ndh-cbut i didnt manage to build a package yet23:11
s-ndh-ci never did debian packaging23:11
s-ndh-c:)23:11
MDKpackaging is one thing. Another is making the monovm a devkit23:11
MDKbut that works smoothly23:12
MDKyou can easily run the vm on i386 on the arm target and it'll work cool23:12
MDKthe performance seems to be very good23:13
MDKstarting this app takes just 3 secs, including loading the image23:13
feruloMDK: how is the startup of gtk-sharp?23:13
ferulomono-launcher! :)23:13
tkolol23:13
ferulopygtk programs now are ~1sec23:13
ferulobut importing gst makes it 2.5sec thing :(23:13

tkowe just need to push all the launcher hacks into /sbin/init :)23:14
ferulowe should try those ld patches to make it faster :p23:14
c0ffeeferulo, getting the rules file to work is close to impossible23:25
c0ffeedh_python for example checks that the version is at most 2.423:26
konfoomdk what is the mem usage like when running the mono vm? nice job btw :)23:28
MDKkonfoo: Ive got some stats, but I'm not sure what to look at23:29
MDKbtw, the core job of arm port was done by lupus, I just did the ugly part of compiling and figuring out all the bits ;)23:29
MDKkonfoo: private memory is around 1.5mb23:30
konfoowow not bad23:30

MDKit would be totally freaky to run winforms on it ;)23:34
s-ndh-cyeah i think they draw allmost allstuf on foot with cairo or whatever, as winforms on msnet uses massive pinvoke to winapi stuff23:36
tkohmm, I once again realized maemo infrastructure is kind of lacking. every other project I can recall provides developers some uncomplicated web space for file sharing23:36
c0ffeedoesn't garage come with ftp?23:37
c0ffeeyou could just make a world rw /pub23:37

|tbb|everybody else got the problem that kismet everytime stop working after a few minutes sniffing? (on a n800)23:51
s-ndh-ccan i just use --prefix during configure to create a package that installs into the mmc card?23:55
s-ndh-chave no space left on the internal flash23:55
