IRC log of #maemo for Wednesday, 2007-01-24

Takit's only for the default setting?00:00
*** pdz- has quit IRC00:00
AaronL2Tak:  That is not necessarily the same as the current setting00:00
maddlermgedmin: that was deliberately left out...00:00
AaronL2Tak:  For instance, let's say the display applet weren't running, there would still be a brightness00:00
Takis there ever a situation where the display applet isn't running?00:00
mgedminaargh, is midnight 12 am or 12 pm00:01
Tak12am00:01
AaronL2Tak:  well, if maemo-af-desktop isn't running, or if the user has moved or deleted libdisplay.so00:01
mgedminworst time to be setting the system clock :)00:01
AaronL212 AM00:01
AaronL2taK:  also, root can manually change the driver's setting00:01
mgedminmaddler: vim-help is another candidate for a separate deb00:01
AaronL2Tak:  the driver display setting, independent of libdisplay.so00:01
mgedminmaddler: and maybe vim-full that depends on all the vim-*00:02
*** daf` has joined #maemo00:02
AaronL2Tak:  Go to Frantisek's web page for more info00:02
Takyeah, I'm reading the thread now00:02
maddlermgedmin: yup... was thinking the same thing...00:04
maddlerlooks like I'm gonnahave a repository on komputika.net as well...00:04
maddlerinstead of a crappy web page ;)00:04
*** waite has left #maemo00:04
mgedminbetter put it up on the maemo extras repository00:04
gpdso it seems that .profile gets run when I ssh into the tablet - but when I run osso-xterm it doesn't - any way around this?00:05
mgedminthe proliferation of random 3rd party repos is hurting the users00:05
* mgedmin is guilty as well00:05
mgedmingpd: that's the 64 thousand dollar question00:05
Takdoes it execute .bashrc ?00:05
mgedminno00:05
mgedmingpd: in theory you can put ENV=.ashrc; export ENV in .profile00:05
*** saerdnaer has quit IRC00:05
mgedminthen create .ashrc with things to be set up in every shell00:06
maddlermgedmin: yup... we should solve that...00:06
mgedminthe base osso-xterm runs .profile when you open it00:06
mgedminmaemo-hacker's one doesn't00:06
mgedminknown bug00:06
maddlerme myself hate having so many repos as well...00:06
maddlerbut... how to solve?00:07
mgedminforce everyone to upload packages into maemo extras00:07
mgedminhttp://maemo.org/maemowiki/ExtrasRepository00:07
keesjupstream repo is also not the best. may the source be ith you00:07
*** luck has quit IRC00:07
nelsonhh.org has a package submission process.00:08
nelsonOne repo for the current release; ipkg update fetches anything new.00:09
nelsonAnother repo for the release under test.00:09
gpdmgedmin: ENV=.ashrc; export ENV is in /home/users/.profile (near the top) - but still nothing with the osso-xterm? Either I have the hackers version or i have done something wrong00:09
maddlermgedmin: yes... that's a good start... but it should be more publicized...00:09
maddlerkeesj: not everyone can build from source...00:10
*** NickDe has quit IRC00:10
*** snorkelyd has left #maemo00:10
maddleror simply not every one wants to...00:10
keesjww perhaps the profile is read at x startup?00:10
mgedmingpd: does your osso xterm put you in ~?  then it's maemo-hackers; if it puts you in /, then it's the standard one00:10
bhimaI don't _want_ to build from source if it's just to prove a point.00:10
gpdmgedmin: it puts me in /00:11
mgedminhmm00:11
* mgedmin shrugs00:11
mgedminthe .profile business is very dark and mysterious, and I do not fully understand it :(00:11
gpdmgedmin: I don't need /.profile - or anything weird?00:11
mgedminno...00:12
mgedminmaybe I gave up and edited /etc/profile00:12
gpdyes -- just looking at that00:12
maddlerbhima... tank you... :)00:13
mgedmincrap, I just registered for a garage account, and I forgot my password already00:16
mgedminbefore logging in for the first time00:16
mgedminnow I have a screen full of pwgen passwords and have to guess which one I picked00:16
*** amrothos has joined #maemo00:16
maddlermgedmin: hahahaha00:16
maddlerclipboard?00:16
mgedminoverwritten :/00:17
*** matt_c has quit IRC00:18
maddlerhehehe...00:18
* shapr boinsg00:19
*** benzea has quit IRC00:19
bhimaI've never used pwgen. But I'm guessing it does the same thing as a little app I wrote in python.00:19
bhimaMine has some nifty add-ons, like letting you alternate between left and right hand, and skipping characters that are different on different keyboard layouts.00:20
Takhmm @ /sys/class/graphics/fb000:20
AaronL2Tak:  that looks familiar00:21
AaronL2Tak:  but, it needs root to change it00:22
*** zumbi has joined #maemo00:22
Takyeah :-/00:22
AaronL2Tak:  perhaps you can somehow trick the system inactivity timer into thinking that the device has become inactive00:22
*** zumbi has quit IRC00:22
TakI was considering temporarily setting the inactivity timeout to 1s00:23
*** Andy80 has quit IRC00:24
maddlermgedmin: I'm checking how big is a "dirty" deb for VIM00:25
AaronL2Tak:  That's not exactly playing nice, another option that I thought of is you could have your install package create an executable that is run by root00:25
AaronL2Tak:  You could communicate with it from your application to cause the screen to be blanked, it would write to fb000:25
Takthat's an option too00:25
mgedminmaddler: did you notice http://mg.pov.lt/vim7-for-mistral.tar.gz ?  3.5 megs compressed, IIRC about 5-7 megs uncompressed00:25
AaronL2Tak:  why do you want to blank the screen anyway?00:25
Takthe problem is that all the options appear to be hacks :-|00:25
mgedminI'm wondering how yours compares00:26
*** amrothos has quit IRC00:26
AaronL2Tak:  also, take a look at the latest libosso code in CVS (the very latest), there is something new called muali, it might provide a way to blank the screen via libosso00:26
mgedminthe svn checkout of vim 7 on my laptop with all the runtime files (twice, because it's svn) and compiled .o files weighs 74 megs (!)00:26
TakI've been wanting to make a screen control applet that's a bit less restrained than the control panel settings00:26
mgedminhm are .install files supported on os2006.2?00:27
AaronL2Tak:  one option, possibly, replace libdisplay.so with your own00:27
AaronL2mgeadmin:  yes00:27
Takthat seems like a good way to brick other people's devices :-/00:27
AaronL2Tak:  libdisplay.so is just loaded by maemo-af-desktop, it's not a required component00:28
AaronL2Tak:  you could delete the file and things would still work00:28
mgedminno .install file for openssh on test.maemo.org/applications00:29
mgedminpity00:29
maddlermgedmin: didn't downloaded... not so much btw...00:29
maddlerI mean... if you really need everything...00:29
mgedminmaddler: I was mostly wondering about the size00:29
mgedminI stripped down the syntax files pretty drastically00:29
mgedminand plugins as well00:29
maddlermumble...00:29
mgedminI'm not saying that *my* choices are universally the best ones ;)00:30
maddlerinstead of having debs for them...00:30
gpdmaddler: did you try to compile the vanilla vim debs? i got dependency issues - but this is week 2 for me00:30
maddlermaybe having them downloadable via a shellscript?00:30
gpdmaddler: those produce vim-tiny and vim-full -- etc00:30
maddlergpd... I'm just testing right now... using vim official tarball00:31
Takhmm - there's also /sys/power/state00:31
maddlergpd: yep... that's the basic idea...00:31
AaronL2mgeadmin:  all garage packages should have .install files that are automatically generated for them00:31
*** Ryback_ has quit IRC00:31
mgedminaargh, the backup + restore did not restore my browser's home page00:33
*** Zer0Her0 has joined #maemo00:37
maddleryour home page doesn't exist... it's only a state of mind!00:38
maddler:D00:38
gpdmaddler: I just removed all the other vim-gnome /vim-gtk packages from debian/control and got rid of the associated dependencies - and it seems to be building... no idea if this will work however!00:39
*** bergie has quit IRC00:39
gpd[although now this is just an obsession - since i have working vim7 thanks to mgedmin ]00:40
mgedminwaah, how do you use .htaccess files to specify the content type for *.install00:40

mgedminheh, pretty dialog00:42
Takheh00:42
mgedmin(icon that says "i") Not found? [ OK ]00:43
Taklol00:43
mgedminare .install files limited to user/* ?00:43
AaronL2mgeadmin:  are you referring to the field in the control file that specifies the category of the application?00:44
mgedminyes00:44
mgedminI tried to create a one-click .install file for openssh00:45
mgedminyou can find it at http://mg.pov.lt/770/00:45
AaronL2mgeadmin:  there are a limited number of categories supported, in general, they might all start with user/00:45
AaronL2I read about that some time ago, but I dont' remember all the categories supported00:45
AaronL2did you see the howto document that discusses .install files at maemo.org?00:45
*** sp3000 has quit IRC00:45
mgedmina long time ago :)00:46
AaronL2also, you can find various .install files that work at garage00:46
AaronL2I'll get you the link for the parent directory00:46
AaronL2http://repository.maemo.org/extras/dists/2.0/install/00:46
|tbb|is it normal mplayer wont run wmv files by now?00:47
AaronL2that's for 2.0/mistral .install files00:47
mgedminhow long would it take me (or somebody else) to upload a .deb to garage with no real contents but that would have Depends: ssh and Section: user/networking or something00:47
AaronL2replace 2.0 with 2.1 and 3.0 for scirocco or bora, respectively00:47
mgedmin?00:47
mgedmintoo long00:47
AaronL2too long?00:47
AaronL2mgeadmin:  you need to get the proper access for uploading a package first00:47
Zmanui have a problem, in xterm i can't use backspace, that create square instead of delete, is someone have an idea on n77000:47
Zmanuos 200600:47
AaronL2mgeadmin:  it's not hard to upload a package00:47
mgedminexactly, but I just flashed my 770 and want to get back my working env ASAP :)00:48
bhimazmanu: local, not ssh? on-screen keyboard?00:48
mgedminplus I want to use the opportunity to make future reflashes less painful00:48
mgedminso I thought "one click install for openssh is maybe possible, then I can just ssh as root and restore /etc/apt/sources, etc."00:48
Zmanubhima: on screen keyboard00:48
AaronL2mgeadmin:  openssh is not provided at garage, unfortunately00:49
mgedminZmanu: people say osso-xterm from maemo.org has that problem, but osso-xterm from maemo-hackers doesn't00:49
gpdmaddler: well it built vim, vim-perl, vim-python, vim-doc and vim_common - but not vim-tiny00:49
*** skallen has quit IRC00:49
AaronL2mgeadmin:  you provide the IRC chat logs for #maemo, right?00:50
Zmanumgedmin: thanks i go and see00:50
mgedminAaronL2: yes00:50
AaronL2mgeadmin:  Any chance of providing a search feature as well? :-)00:50
mgedminit's already there00:52
mgedminlook at the top-right corner of the page00:52
AaronL2heh, you're right :-)00:52
AaronL2totally missed it00:52
Zmanumgedmin: i can't find .deb in repository maemo-hackers.org and i don't have net on n77000:53
mgedminhm, looks like a .install file cannot specify more than one repository00:53
AaronL2any chance of the search being configurable, to provide context information surrounding the instance of the word that is searched for/00:53
AaronL2?00:53
mgedminAaronL2: sure, the search script is open-source; just send me a patch ;)00:53
mgedminyou'll find the link in the footer00:53
AaronL2guess I would have to learn python to do that :-)00:54
maddlergpd: "it"?00:55
AaronL2any new features you want in VNC viewer?  I see in the search that you have used it :-)00:55
mgedminhmm00:56
mgedmincan't think of any00:56
mgedminpan-to-scroll?00:56
mgedminjust can't come up with reasonable ui for it00:56
AaronL2mgeadmin:  we may be adding that feature for the next release00:56
AaronL2mgeadmin:  by holding down the + button, perhaps00:57
mgedminI noticed in irc logs :)00:57
AaronL2and then dragging00:57
JaffaNot just pan-to-scroll, but iPhone-like inertial scrolling ;-)00:57
mgedminor a toggle button in the toolbar00:57
mgedminooh, ooh, use the thumb for scrolling, and stylus for clicking00:57
AaronL2toggle button, perhaps, could be based on pressure as well, maybe00:57
*** pdz-_ is now known as pdz00:57
AaronL2touchscreen pressure, I mean00:57
mgedminexcept in real life your thumb would get misdetected and break havoc00:57
AaronL2yes, probably00:58

AaronL2guerby:  but, thanks for the idea, I should come to IRC more often, no one submits feature requests on our web site :-(01:17

guerby_zzzmay be a config file01:20
*** Zmanu has quit IRC01:20
AaronL2guerby:  possibly, right now, if you specify the hostname and password via the command-line01:20
AaronL2guerby:  it will reapply them if you lose the connection, but that's not the same thing01:20
guerby_zzzAaronL2, config file?01:20
AaronL2guerby:  well, I would be concerned about security, but it is a possibility01:20
AaronL2guerby:  if the user specifically sets the setting, then I guess it would be okay, but, I would want to have some sort of encryption thing01:21
AaronL2guerby:  perhaps just use the VNC encryption01:21
guerby_zzzAaronL2, I'll think about it. good night :)01:21

mitchelocHey guys, I took the plunge and purchased an N800, where is the SIP client on it?06:41
mitchelocor is it XMPP/Jingle only?06:41
lexiyntaxGizmo is SIP isn't it?06:42
mitchelocyes, I have an internal Asterisk server that I'd like to use06:42
lexiyntaxI haven't tried it yet, but I know they have a N800 release here: http://tinyurl.com/2o9wa306:43
pahartikmitcheloc: "Gizmo" is only one available for now, and it is registrar-locked06:43
gpdI think someone was porting ekiga (sp?)06:44
lexiyntaxGizmo isn't a general SIP client?06:44
mitchelocgpd: that's the correct spelling06:44
mitchelocGizmo is a service like skype...they have their own UI06:45
mitchelocso i can't dial out a land line with the nokia?06:46
mitchelocthe advertising for voip is misleading =(06:46

pjrmMy N770 just ~crashed: two processes in uninteruptible sleep (D in ps: maemo-launcher running /usr/bin/browser, and pdflush kernel process and /sbin/syslogd).06:53
pjrmThe wchan field of /proc/PID/stat for the browser process showed 0xc00e523c, which is in "c00e5118 t jffs2_do_setattr" according to /proc/kallsyms.06:53
pjrmI tried leaving it for a bit; when I came back, I found my ssh session had become unresponsive.06:53
pjrmI pressed the power button, which did nothing for a while, then the white screen with nokia logo came up, then nothing happening other than occasionally (every ~40 seconds) flashing black screen then back to nokia logo.06:53
pjrmAfter a few minutes, it went to black screen.06:53
pjrmI recharged it (waiting until it said "Battery Full"), turned it on.  It started booting up as normal, but when the progress bar reached full, it just sat there.06:53
pjrmAbout 100 seconds after switching it on, the screen flashed black, like before, and continued to flash a brief (<1 sec) black screen every ~40 seconds.06:53
pjrmAfter a while, it changed to really strange blue patterns, and has now gone black (I suppose switched off).06:53
pjrmAny suggestions?06:53
pahartikmitcheloc: I think XMPP is acceptable too, but I do not know of any clients other than that for Maemo (and is that registrar-locked to "Google Talk" service?)06:53

*** skallen has joined #maemo11:45
dwdmitcheloc: The graphics hardware on the 770, at least, can rotate the screen image in hardware - or at least invert the screen.11:45
dwdmitcheloc: Doing 90 degree rotations means either doing things in the app, or having the framework and X server working together to make the experience less confusing.11:46
dwdmitcheloc: In particular, you'd need the RandR extension on the X server, which I think is coming, and then you'd want the framework to know about the rotation so it could reorganize the layout in a more optimal manner.11:47
mitcheloci understand, i'm wrting a web app to use on the device and i have a giant number pad implemented in HTML, it'd make more sense to use the device sideways to save screen space11:48
mitchelocand since i'm writing html and depending ont he built in browser, i can't really rotate it11:48
s-ndh-cdoes the n770 support java?11:48
dwdmitcheloc: There is rotation stuff hidden away somewhere in CSS, but I have no idea if it's supported in the Opera browser.11:49
*** wumpus has left #maemo11:49
dwdmitcheloc: I think you're probably stuck with redesigning for wide and short, rather than tall and thin.11:49
mitchelocdwd: it doesn't make sense for my app to do that...i'm looking into the css -- worst case i guess i can generate images dynamically with the text sideways heh11:50
kjetilhos-ndh-c: no.  (perhaps gcj can be used)11:51
mitchelocthe only thing really left is hiding the address bar in full screen? or is that asking too much :)11:51
dwds-ndh-c: Not yet. Some efforts are underway to make it do Java.11:51

dewaardDoes anyone in this channel have experience with Python on the Nxxx devices? I want to develop an application that a) allows very simple data administration (there is a list of people and for each person multiple rows can be added), and b) synchronisation of this data with the server. I would prefer to create a web application, because this would be the most flexible setup. However, the setup will be used in "on the road" in Africa and the av12:31
dwdI use Python on the 770 quite a bit.12:31
dwddewaard: And, for that matter, I've quite an interest in roaming data synch.12:32
dewaarddwd: I've been reading the related web pages, and it seemed like the Python project for Maemo isn't very lively (http://maemo.org/maemowiki/PythonMaemo?highlight=%28python%29). What is your impression?12:33
maddlermornin' all!12:34
dwddewaard: Seems well maintained, and fully capable.12:34
dwddewaard: They did shift development about, so there's old sourceforge pages, etc. New ones are on Garage.12:34
*** greentux has joined #maemo12:39
*** bergie_ has joined #maemo12:39
dewaardahh, that is good to hear. I much rather write a Python application for a Linux based device, as I don't like the idea of developing for Windows.12:39
dewaardwhat do you mean exactly by roaming data synch., exactly?12:40
dwddewaard: Next up - I have both an ACAP server and Python based ACAP library that will handle full offline mode, as well as "immediate" updates, if that's of use to you. All GPL.12:40
dewaarddwd: hmm, although I don't fully understand what that technology offers it seems like something to have a look at from what I do understand so far.12:41
dwddewaard: My app uses it to roam configuration data, but it's a schemaless heirarchical database, so it could be used for pretty much anything.12:42
dewaardThis is a commercial project in the sense that I'm being paid to write it, but it will be released as GPL software anyway so GPL components are perfectly fine :)12:42
dewaardwhen you say ACAP, do you mean Automated Content Access Protocol?12:43
dwddewaard: Application Configuration Access Protocol. RFC2244.12:43

dewaarddwd: hmm, I've read a little bit about ACAP now, but why should I use it instead of, say, a simple XML protocol for communication/synchronisation with the server?12:54
dwddewaard: You could do that. Depends on your needs. Using ACAP saves you from having to do protocol design work.12:55
dewaarddwd: true12:55
kjetilhodewaard: it's a standard already with some implementations12:56

dewaardwell, I'll have a look at it :) The description on Wikipedia "It's rumoured to be the most complex Internet Engineering Task Force designed protocol ever, which has caused serious problems for server implementors." is a bit scary though ;)12:57

keesjlet's try again, is is possible to run xnest on the 770?15:48
valtsuzuh: =)15:48
mitchelocrobtaylor: will that get me divx? i'm guessing no... so will gst-ffmpeg get me a better frame rate then?15:48
robtaylormitcheloc: divx is a type of mpeg415:49
ssvbkkito: 640x480 may be a bit too heavy for n800 without additional decoder optimizations, try experimenting with '-benchmark -nosound' option to see what takes more time, video decoding or video output (for different video output drivers)15:50
robtaylormitcheloc: so it'd be provided by the gst element ffdec_mpeg4, which is in gst-ffmpeg15:50
s-ndh-cmpeg is just a container , it doesnt say much about the codec the video stream is encoded with15:50
mitchelocrobtaylor: pardon the noob in me, (just got the n800), how would i install that?15:51
ssvbkkito: also '-endpos' option can be used to benchmark not full video but some starting fragment, I usually run benchmarks with '-endpos 100' option15:51
robtaylormitcheloc: with some difficulty15:51
VRec0ffee: I think it's the whole issue of community vs. nokia internal .. devel goes fast forward in the company but opening up towards community goes really slow - so external ideas drop dead because the separation..15:52

robtaylornomis: it flips left-to-right when teh camera's upside down?! thats weird16:51
valtsu|tbb|: it doesn't take that long so no16:51
nomisrobtaylor: it has to rotate the image of the camera for 180 degrees, which is the same as flipping top/down *and* left/right.16:52
nomis(assuming that this does not happen in hardware, which I doubt)16:52
shapr|tbb|: It probably doesn't have to be fully charged, but it's definitely a good idea :-)16:52
SonejIs it possible to mount my usb memory stick on the N800?16:53
dwdSonej: Probably not.16:53
nomisSonej: it is probably possible, but not really easy.16:53
shapr|tbb|: Also, specific charge patterns in the beginning will increase the life of your battery.16:53
dwdSonej: It can, if hit hard enough with a suitably big stick, do host-mode USB, but it cannot supply power.16:53
shapr|tbb|: I think other #maemo people said that Lithium Ion batteries work best if they start out with a full charge, full discharge, and full charge.16:54
shaprI'll ask wikipedia what it thinks about Lion batteries.16:54
Sonejhaha i see...16:54
dwdSonej: So you could do it if you put it into host-mose USB, *and* supplied power externally, which involves a bit of soldering and a powered hub.16:54
mgedminSonej: dwd: the N800 does not have USB host support16:54
Juhaz|tbb|, it doesn't really matter but you absolutely don't want to run out of power in the middle of flashing16:54
Juhazwell, unless you enjoy bricks16:54

Sonejsoldering, thats to much work :P16:55
|tbb|with flashing16:55
Juhaznot forever, but well enough that it's not recoverable without cold flashing equipment in service16:56
shapr|tbb|: Yes, you could really brick it permanently. From what I've read if the NOLO part made it over you could restore a 770 from those flat pins next to the battery. But I haven't seen an N800, does it have those too?16:56
mgedmin|tbb|: it is possible to brick it with flashing -- if it writes half of the boot loader and then the battery dies, I think16:56
nomismgedmin: oh? That would be a pity.16:56
|tbb|and yes16:56
mitchelocjust plug it in?16:56
shaprI bricked my iriver digital music player :-(16:56
|tbb|he has this serial connectors16:57
hapfor my n800 i mean16:57
shaprNokia has a smarter system than iriver, there's a tiny boot loader segment (NOLO == NOkia LOader) at the beginning of each firmware image.16:58
Jaffamgedmin: the latest theory on ITT is that that is referring specifically to a particular part of the USB OTG spec, and that compiling a kernel with USB host support would result in the same functionality as the 770. No-one's tested that though.16:58
mgedminthat would be cool16:58
mgedminbut I'm pessimistic16:58

nomisrobtaylor: imagine having a standalone camera pointing to you. Now you rotate the camera around the "left-right" axis as you'd do with the camera in the N800. To get a "regular" image again you have to rotate the camera 180 degrees around the axis pointing along the objective, right?17:06
dwdrobtaylor: Awwww. You spoil my fun.17:06
Takmirrors only swap if they're poorly implemented17:07
dwdrobtaylor: (But actually, they do swap forward and backward, of course)17:07
mitchelocmeh, the camera low-light, sucks anyhow, especially the angle! :(17:07

robtaylornomis: nope, look up what yuv looks like and think of the algorithm to flip left-right17:10
nomisdwd: my point is, that if you rotate the camera in the 770 you have to flip both directions to get an image that is correct (e.g. text stays readable).17:10

shaprhap, here's the paper - http://tapir.cs.ucl.ac.uk/bittau-wep.pdf17:47
dwdjcml_: What IMAP server are you using, anyway?17:47

s-ndh-ci mean the cpu fucking slow, what type of machines can be emulated?17:48
Taks-ndh-c: if not, I've been wasting my time ;-)17:48
hapok17:49
shaprhap: The source for the cx3110x wifi driver for the Nokia 770 is available, and appears to allow raw 802.11 packet injection. It does not appear to allow reading packets at the same time as injecting them (much like standard 802.11 packet injection setups). I haven't tried it myself, of course. That would be illegal.17:49
Takobviously the more powerful machines can't be emulated at high speed17:49

Jaffashapr: it wouldn't be illegal if you were pen-testing your own WLAN17:50

nomisdwd, robtaylor: http://www.home.unix-ag.org/simon/files/n800-camera.pdf17:50
dwdjcml_: Of course, it's possible they've fixed the bugs.17:50

mgedminI once moved 16 thousand messages (80 megs total) from one imap mailbox to another17:58

hapJaffa: i doubt too17:59
xorAxAxif you had a sane fs17:59
dwdmgedmin: *nods* Dovecot isn't fast. Mostly Maildir's fault, actually - when the number of messages get big, it gets tricky. Btter to copy the files and reinject them, then duplicate the metadata.18:00
mgedminI was afraid to get offlineimap confused18:00
jcml_dwd: is the isode package a limited duration eval?  Or is it "don't pay us up to XXXk messages per day".  Or ... ??18:00
mgedminI did the mv part on my laptop18:00
mgedmindidn't realize it would take a *week*18:00
xorAxAxdwd: dovecot is fast for me and maildir is fast by design as well -- where is the problem?18:00
dwdjcml_: Limited duration, normally.18:00
xorAxAxdwd: if you have a file system that is O(n) on file operation, it sucks, though18:00

xorAxAxkjetilho: why?18:01
dwdxorAxAx: Hmmm. http://www.isode.com/whitepapers/mbox-benchmark.html18:01

dwdxorAxAx: Those need redoing anyway. :-)18:03
kjetilhodepends on the IMAP commands you're sending, but you'll often ask for lists of unread messages, or just the count18:04
dwdxorAxAx: With Maildir, you do readddir() for examining flags, and all sorts of stuff.18:04
kjetilhoDovecot will keep a cache file, though.18:04
haphmm, why does it say "Enable RD mode if you want to break your device" when doing sudo gainroot on the xterm ?18:04
Takwasn't somebody saying something about .install files being autogenerated for apps on garage extras?18:04
suihkulokkithey have constatly typoed dovecot, so it's hard to take them seriously18:04
inzhap, because you don't have r&d mode enabled18:04
inzhap, try flasher --enable-rd-mode18:04
xorAxAxdwd: why do you need to read flags if you want to move mails18:04
mgedminhap: because you can break your device if you do random stuff as root, if you're not careful18:05
mgedmininnocent things like sudo apt-get upgrade may make it nonbootable18:05
hapinz: ah, i'll eave that for later then; i'm not confident enough. Just wanted to apt-get install ssh18:05
dwdxorAxAx: An IMAP COPY would need to, for instance.18:05

xorAxAxdwd: why?18:05
nomisrobtaylor: does the PDF settle the issue?18:06
xorAxAxthe flags are cached18:06
shaprWhat's up with keeping debs for the device and incompatible debs for scratchbox in the same repository?18:06
shaprThat's just ... broken.18:06
dwdxorAxAx: Because the specification says to copy the flags.18:06
hapah no wait, i want sshd, not ssh :]18:06
hapinz: ok18:06
xorAxAxdovecot can even move mails in O(1) time18:06
xorAxAxby using hardlinks18:06
dwdxorAxAx: yes, but it still does the readdir().18:06
trickieinz: dropbear doesn't support dsa keys... at least i think so18:07
trickies/i think/i don't think/18:07
dwdxorAxAx: Or at least, if it doesn't, it's because it's cached the results. (Which is probably more likely to be the case).18:07
xorAxAxdwd: yes, thats my point18:08
xorAxAxso open is more common18:08
xorAxAxand open should benefit18:08
dwdxorAxAx: But if the cache fails, it'll still do a readdir(), and it'll quite possibly do readdir()s on certain commands anyway, depending on how it's implemented.18:09

dwdtzz: It does pop up in my scratchbox, when it should. Most of the time, anyway - sometimes it comes up in the wrong place, but a quick poke with a sharp stick fixes that.19:19
MacSlowWhat to make of this (especially mentioning "Linux") http://www.imgtec.com/News/Release/index.asp?ID=609 and that state of a OpenGL|ES/OpenVG driver for the N800?19:20

ferulono MBX for linux 2.6 at all19:22
bstockanyone know offhand good dimensions for a desktop imageon the 77019:22
kulveMacSlow: not much. AFAIK there no code in kernel to allow using the gfx chip in the OMAP core. Even if there would be, there's no (free) open gl es implementation for linux19:22
maddlerreading "your package is on time..." makes me pissed off!19:22
MacSlowferulo, kulve: too bad... and that's total crap... damn!19:23

ferulowell MacSlow nokia is not making those chips...19:24
MacSlowwith proper driver support that pretty easy to do19:24

hapcan I mount samba disk on the nokia ?19:25
MacSlowferulo, I know... but they are a customer of TI, IM and paying for those chips... they should be able to push them to provide drivers for the intended platforms Nokia builds with that hardware19:25
ferulobtw dws those drivers are for x86 kernel (closed sorces .so/.o files)19:25
dwdferulo: Ah, I was hoping by "source" they meant, well, "source".19:26
MacSlowthere goes another good argument _against_ closed source drivers19:26
Juhazthey might be able to beg a crappy proprietary driver for a few million, but I wouldn't hold my breath for anything open from a company whose press releases start with "a leader in system-on-chip intellectual property (SoC IP)"19:26
||cwhap: if the smbfs and/or cifs kernel modules are there, yes19:27
dwdJuhaz: Well, that's just like ARM, after all, who are perfectly open.19:27

elpasoOk, this is what I've imagined20:19
mgedminI think it is best to disable red pill mode as soon as you don't need it20:19
mgedminyou can always install packages with sudo apt-get install in xterm/ssh20:19

MacSlowehm... which rootstrap tarball contains the Xephyr server?20:33
mgedminI try to tap at the vkb, and some taps never register20:33
mgedminI didn't have this problem with OS2006.120:33
mgedminMacSlow: your desktop system is supposed to contain xephyr20:33
mgedminit's no longer included in maemo 3.0 rootstraps20:33
MacSlow"Xephyr is pre-installed in the rootsrap."20:34
MacSlowI am still on 2.1 not 3.020:34
mgedminthen I'm sure it's the i386 rootstrap20:34

AaronL2Tak:  no official response to my e-mail to maemo-developers, but I got an unofficial response from one of the Nokia guys who said that I was on the list, so, perhaps it is just taking longer for non-European devs21:11
Takhmm21:11
TakI wonder if it would be a faux pas for me to ping him as well21:12
AaronL2Tak:  it would have been nice to get an official response (i.e., yes, there is a delay, but oh well)21:12
TakI really don't mind if it takes a while; it'll just help me to plan my development if I know I can count on having a machine21:12
AaronL2I noticed that you put a bora package up for xmame on your garage site21:13
Takyeah, there are bora packages for xmame and fceu21:13
AaronL2but, it is listed in a different package group as the 770 package21:13
AaronL2so, when you go to the main page, all you see is the bora package21:13
AaronL2and you don't see the package for the 77021:13
Takhmm21:13
AaronL2you have to go to all files to see the 770 package21:13
AaronL2which you have to do anyway, but I avoided this by grouping all the latest VNC viewer packages under the same group21:14
Takyeah, I suppose I should do that21:14
AaronL2it's a minor thing21:14
Takyeah, but it does make sense that it'd be confusing/misleading21:14
AaronL2also, I put N800 in the package name instead of bora21:14
AaronL2I think users may not be familiar with the code names21:15
Takpossibly21:15
keesjthey should understand IT200721:15
keesjthat would still be "right"21:15
AaronL2maybe, maybe not21:15

keesjbut they really should not have to choose21:16
AaronL2they might not understand the distinction21:16

AaronL2it will generate mistral, scirocco, or bora-specific .install files depending on which repository you upload to21:17

tzzAaronL: I got somewhere with the Emacs input method, now I will see if the maemo-developers list will help.  It's frustrating that there's no simple way to say "this application should get the pop-up keyboard on focus" but I see the framework is trying to do the right thing for all GTk widgets.21:23
AaronL2tzz:  at garage.maemo.org, go to code snippets21:23
AaronL2tzz:  someone posted some snippets that you might find interesting for this21:23
AaronL2tzz:  I noticed them there last night21:24
hapi wish i could get the hand keyboard with stylet21:24
hapit's too small for me :)21:24
AaronL2Tak:  totally different question:  have you tried, with xmame, etc., having two hardware buttons pressed at the same time?21:24
Takdoesn't work (on 770)21:25
AaronL2Tak:  Detlef (my colleague) tried to get it working, but the second press doesn't get sent21:25
tzzAaron: I used those snippets already.  They are useful, but they assume a GDK window, which Emacs doesn't appear to have in a frame.21:25
TakI put in screen buttons on fceu21:25
AaronL2is it a hardware limitation/21:25
Takyes21:25
AaronL2ah, okay, wonder if the N800 has the same limitation, probably, I would guess21:25
tzzAaron: look at my patch and the e-mail to see what I've done so far.21:25
TakI would guess so too; don't know either way21:25
AaronL2tzz:  well, emacs must have some Gdkwindow21:25
inzTak, if you want to change the device state, you should take a look at the mce-dev package21:26
keesjI really love the way the maemo gui has evolved. congrats!21:26
AaronL2tzz:  I'll try to find some time tonight to look at the code21:26
tzzAaron: I asked on emacs-devel about this.  I don't think there is a GDK window.  I think they draw directly in X.  But I could be wrong :)21:26
Takinz: I will, thanks21:26
AaronL2tzz:  but, you said that you can build it with gtk support21:27
inz|tbb|, you can set the 770 to host mode, according to a post on maemo-dev, N800 hardware doesn't support it21:27
AaronL2tzz:  this must do something, right?21:27

*** dieguito has joined #maemo21:27
keesjno , non gtk user input ,21:27
tzzAaron: GTK is used for widgets and toolbard, but the actual text input area (which is what people want to use), is not a GDK window.  I looked for a while.21:27
|tbb|they should upgrade a device not downgrade it21:27
AaronL2|tbb|:  it required going through various hoops to begin with to use USB anyway, it wasn't for regular users21:28
tzzAaron: I'll let you and maemo-developers know when I get a reply from emacs-devel with details.21:28
AaronL2tzz:  well, okay, but if GTK is used for widgets and toolbars, that implies that there is something that the widgets and toolbars are housed in21:29
AaronL2tzz:  which is most likely some other Gtk construct21:29
keesjbut why the "real" emacs , why not vim with emacs key bindings21:29
|tbb|linux always not regular users :(21:29
|tbb|:)21:30
tzzAaron: I couldn't figure it out myself.  I'm not good enough at X or GTK.21:30
tzzkeesj: the real Emacs can do things like run Gnus for mail21:30
tzzkeesj: multiple IMAP/Maildir/mbox/NNTP/RSS sources, for example...21:31
AaronL2tzz:  did you grep through the source for Gtk and Gdk?21:31
AaronL2that will tell you right away if any other Gtk classes are used21:31
AaronL2or Gdk classes21:31
AaronL2find -name '*' -type f | xargs grep -i gtk21:32
tzzAaron: I looked with grep and by reading.  gtkutil.c and xterm.c are the important files.  xfns.c has one line, for XPM pixbufs.21:33

AaronL2you might just try adding keypress and keyrelease events to it21:40
AaronL2rather than going through the hassle of the stuff in the code snippets at garage21:41
tzzAaron: would that automagically bring up the keyboard?21:42
AaronL2no, same as with VNC viewer21:42
AaronL2you would need to handle the Enter key press21:42
AaronL2to mean that that should show the input method21:42

bhimaAnother issue, somewhat more in the philosophical domain, is that sometimes you need a dictator.22:39
MacSlowbhima, no doubts there22:39
hapi would agree on that too, but some free software have their owns.22:39
hapsee openbsd :)22:39
bhimaWHen everybody thinks they have a better idea, sometimes that's a problem.22:39
maddlergotta go...22:40
maddlerl8r...22:40
bhimaIf their ideas are only _slightly_ better, but _inconsistent_, that's not good.22:40
* bhima waves at maddler.22:40
bhimaOF course, commercial software can have that too.22:40
bhimaiirc, VMS commands were written by two teams, one US and one UK.22:40
hapanyway, i'm quiet surprised GPE isn't better than what I've seen.22:40
bhimaYou can tell who wrote what based on terminology.22:40
Takso half the commands are full of extraneous vowels? ;-)22:40
MacSlowbhima, the problem is... many people suddenly think they are 'experts in the field of UI-design'... just because they once saw something 'nice'.22:41
bhimatak: worse, far worse.22:41
bhimatak: I forget the precise example, but for command line arguments, they used different synonyms.22:41

bhimatbb: I don't think it does a reboot, it does a _boot_.23:18
sbaturzioLh3: I've made a query request, your IRC client should alert you about that. Did you see t?23:19
bhimatbb: Presumably, because the battery charging controller is part of the kernel...23:19
tigertLh3: write in the query window23:19
c0ffeeit just boots into runlevel 5 if the bootreason is ac adapter23:19
