Sulis | mount | 00:01 |
kkito | Sulis, the n800 kernel hasnt got support for samba filesystems, i dont know if in future version it will be included, anyways, there are some unnoficial kernels with smb support | 00:01 |

kkito | Sulis, i dont know, is better if you compile and configure your own kernel http://maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/howto_kernel_guide_bora.html | 00:09 |

kkito | Sulis, if you are going to build your own kernel, perhaps you may want to patch the kernel with the sdhc patch, for newer 8GB Sd cards http://intr.overt.org/blog/?p=44 | 00:21 |
*** herzi has quit IRC | 00:23 | |
Sulis | yes, that has been a part of my plans for the near future | 00:23 |
kkito | i dont know if there are a patch for usb host support too | 00:24 |
kkito | or if it can be enabled directly on the kernel configuration | 00:24 |
*** pdz has quit IRC | 00:25 | |

lirelent | alright I'm trying to cross-compile a text only application on a ubuntu laptop for a n770 | 07:47 |
lirelent | so I followed http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/Maemo_tutorial.html#Installation | 07:47 |
lirelent | and 1st of all it tells me to use sb-menu instead of sbox-config | 07:48 |
lirelent | which isn't a huge issue | 07:48 |
lirelent | but under the CPU-transparancy options the list is empty | 07:48 |
lirelent | and I used the tar.gz packages | 07:48 |
lirelent | since I wasn't getting run_me_first.sh with the .deb packages | 07:49 |
lirelent | any thoughts? | 07:49 |
lirelent | sorry if I'm being terse | 07:49 |

BrianRice | i keep googling and not finding anything, which is baffling to me | 07:52 |
Tak | afaik there isn't one | 07:52 |
Tak | at least not for 770 | 07:53 |
BrianRice | Tak: why not when the primary purpose of the device is to connect to the net? | 07:53 |
* Tak shrugs | 07:53 | |
lirelent | kulve do I just extract that to / like the other packages? | 07:53 |
soulblaze | the n800 will cnnect to a trusted network..of course | 07:53 |
Tak | they appear to have rectified in n800 | 07:53 |
soulblaze | it'll also connect to any open network in site | 07:53 |
tigert | there should be a setting in connection manager | 07:53 |
kulve | lirelent: yep | 07:53 |
BrianRice | ok, so netcat runs on it just fine but it can't auto-connect... seems like some shell scripts could fix this or something listening for the right dbus messages | 07:54 |
soulblaze | I haven't used my n800 for anything besides an ebook reader in like a month.. | 07:54 |
BrianRice | hm, well alright. i'll keep looking | 07:54 |
lirelent | ooooh sweet thank SOOO much kulve | 07:55 |
kulve | lirelent: np :) | 07:56 |
lirelent | oh so under dev kits what should i choose | 07:56 |
lirelent | cputransparancy or debian | 07:56 |
lirelent | or both | 07:56 |
kulve | both | 07:57 |
kulve | but not the debian sarge thing | 07:57 |
lirelent | right | 07:57 |
kulve | all but the sarge thing | 07:58 |
lirelent | and qemu-arm | 07:58 |
lirelent | or qemu-armeb | 07:58 |
soulblaze | speaking of arm coding..is t here any books that are out there that would be helpful to learn toc ode for the n800? | 07:58 |
kulve | lirelent: latest qemu-arm | 07:58 |
lirelent | uber ty kulve | 07:59 |
kulve | soulblaze: it's basic "linux coding" | 07:59 |

*** bergie has quit IRC | 08:29 | |
disq | :) | 08:33 |
Tak | in all seriousness , the hildon spinner control could be a lot more thumb-friendly | 08:37 |
Tak | alternatively, I could just use a different control , but a spinner seems like the best fit for a range of integers | 08:41 |
tigert | haha | 08:44 |
tigert | sorry, was gmailing :) | 08:44 |
tigert | a lot could be more thumb-friendly | 08:44 |
BrianRice | speaking of which, at what level is the finger-ness of a click exposed? | 08:45 |
tigert | but that would mean a lot bigger widgets. how would we do that? | 08:45 |
tigert | it would break many app layouts, and those small dialogs would need to die | 08:46 |
disq | yeah we would need specialized wizard type dialogs. like mediastreamer has but wider, 4-6 pages or so :) | 08:48 |
Tak | well, instead of [5]^v like it is now, it could be \/[5]/\ | 08:48 |
tigert | but i must admit, after using the thumb keyboard, i dont want topickup the stylus much | 08:48 |
Tak | not much size difference, but a lot more thumbable | 08:48 |
Tak | ditto | 08:49 |
tigert | yea, or dialogs and views could slide like on the ipod. but that would mean redoing most apps | 08:49 |
disq | i hate how the normal vkb resizes hildonwindow when it pops up | 08:49 |
Tak | plus a lot of dialogs are already broken and need to be completely reworked (xchat) | 08:50 |
tigert | or perhaps we should just experiment with this using few apps | 08:50 |
disq | and it keeps popping under certain conditions (opera keeps focusing to that damn textarea when you just need to scroll, etc) | 08:50 |
tigert | disq, it kinda has to, so your text entry field is not hiden under the keyboard | 08:50 |
disq | is there a i dont want your stinkin vkb toggle somewhere btw? :) | 08:51 |
disq | one could hit the rocker and enable thumbkb if needed | 08:51 |
disq | or just press the finger etc | 08:51 |
tigert | i would love to see maemo-mapper in canola-like thumbable ui | 08:51 |
tigert | with fullscreen thumb dialog for driving directions etc | 08:51 |
*** _follower_ has quit IRC | 08:52 | |
disq | the translucent vkb idea is good, hope somebody develops it (as a hildon-whatever.so replacement) | 08:53 |
disq | that way it also wouldn't resize | 08:53 |
disq | how was fosdem btw :) | 08:53 |
tigert | i dont think its actuallly that good in use | 08:54 |
tigert | plus real transparency eats cpu we dont have | 08:54 |
disq | the 2420 looks pretty idle to me :P | 08:55 |
jacques | heh | 08:55 |
disq | of course it's not an option in the 770 | 08:55 |
jacques | what about the 2d/3d graphics accelerator? | 08:55 |
disq | jacques: that falls under the category of licensing and money (and possibly lawyers?) | 08:56 |
tigert | also even the iphone doesnt have it transparent | 08:56 |
jacques | :-( | 08:56 |
disq | iphone my ass, it's just a dumb phone :) | 08:56 |
tigert | i think the problem is lack of feedback. | 08:56 |
soulblaze | a dumb phone with 3 xscale processors | 08:57 |
disq | feedback as in button-feedback, or licensing-feedback? | 08:57 |
tigert | its already pretty tricky to type, what if it was evenharder to see the keys? | 08:57 |
disq | mmm. if only we had 32bpp. though the hw designers first have to get a good screen, the digitizer's still screwed up with the n800 | 08:58 |
disq | of course the 32bpp/alphachannel effect can be done with wasting more cpu for convenience, but might need more integration/hacking with the x server since gtk+ possibly wouldn't support it that way | 08:59 |

tigert | bluetotooth keyboard works like shit when walking or standing | 09:04 |
disq | also the huge margins on everything doesn't help, and i still didn't check out hildon theme tools | 09:05 |
tigert | its a mobile device. i have a computer when i am sitting on a desk | 09:05 |
tigert | the vkb doesnt have much margins that would affect this issue | 09:06 |
tigert | the spacing of buttons is in the theme bitmaps | 09:06 |
disq | yeah its the theme. in fullscreen mode it's much better etc | 09:06 |
disq | i mean the app margins, not the theming of the vkb :) | 09:07 |
tigert | yeah | 09:07 |
tigert | fix it :) | 09:08 |
tigert | ok, back with laptop, now I can type with a real kbd again | 09:08 |
tigert | but its scary, I cannot type any faster on this | 09:08 |
disq | :) identify yourself (to nickserv, i mean) | 09:08 |
disq | if it's not your laptop then you're bound to suck at typing. it's the laptop way(tm) | 09:09 |

tigert | id'd even | 09:09 |
disq | :) | 09:09 |
tigert | this is an ibm usb keyboard | 09:09 |
tigert | its pretty good | 09:09 |
tigert | but I am pretty scary with the thumb keyboard typing | 09:10 |

keesj | what about using hosting the offer to host an experimental mud repository? I don't want to be constrained much longer. | 10:51 |
acydlord | sweet, the n800 works with my phone whereas the 770 didnt | 10:52 |

acydlord | gizmo/asterix | 11:00 |
Pinguino | I bought my 770 while visiting a friend in London | 11:00 |
Pinguino | I live in Israel and what to use the discount I got for the 800 | 11:00 |
Veggen | acydlord: hmm. It looks like that when I enable second sip account, it logs into gizmo servers and then the gizmo servers log into the asterisk...is that true? | 11:01 |
Pinguino | is it possible? | 11:01 |
acydlord | yep Veggen | 11:01 |
keesj | acydlord: So i need to look if I can use asterix to hoock up to my phone provider? | 11:01 |
acydlord | Pinguino, no idea unless you set up a forwarding address | 11:01 |
Veggen | acydlord: hmmf. probably I need to get sip through my firewall, then ;) | 11:02 |
acydlord | keesj probably, i know you can use gizmo with skype too | 11:02 |
Pinguino | I tried using an international credit card belonging to my local bank and it was rejected | 11:02 |
acydlord | have you tried calling nokia customer support to see if they will let you purchace it over the phone? | 11:03 |

Veggen | Agree with the general opinion, though. More packages in "extras" and not in various private repositories would be good. | 13:00 |

Veggen | There might be a good reason, if so, then educate me ;) | 13:02 |
Veggen | (from a user perspective, it's better in most ways to have a central "extras" repository - also because it forces people to cooperate and not create dependency-conflicts, etc) | 13:03 |
keesj | oe might be the answer. i have a hard time understanding what oe is and how it works. pkgsrc might also be an answer | 13:04 |

lardman | What are the logistics required to use OE to build n770|800 packages? Could one do a half-way house without needing to build eveything (obviously not the toolchain, but libc, etc.)? | 13:37 |
koen | lardman: it should be possible to use the scratchbox toolchain and ASSUME_PROVIDE gcc, glibc, etc | 13:38 |
koen | keep in mind that maemo doesn't have a real EABI glibc | 13:38 |
lardman | koen: Really? | 13:38 |
* koen vomits on the csl toolchain | 13:38 | |
* lardman too | 13:39 | |
koen | lardman: it uses a small shim to translate syscall to OABI | 13:39 |
lardman | oh right, you learn something new every day :) | 13:39 |
hrw | lardman: poky has support for it but it will be not added into OE | 13:39 |
keesj | hrw i started something siimilar for bookmarks it is called cosy-booknarks it shoud be easy to extend the app to exec local apps | 13:39 |

hrw | lardman: best way: Ångström with GPE insted of maemo thing | 13:47 |
obergix[work] | hrw: :) | 13:47 |
lardman | hrw: I have some code for the battery reporting, just need to tweak minilite to talk to gconf for the backlight, or replace the initfs to be adventurous | 13:48 |
hrw | obergix[work]: this device has some potential but I do not like maemo UI | 13:48 |
hrw | lardman: or fix kernel driver to behave like it should | 13:48 |
hrw | lardman: backlight driver is very,very simple thing | 13:48 |
lardman | hrw: It does behave, it's just overridden | 13:48 |
lardman | you can get it to work via sysfs, but then the maemo stuff changes it back to the original value | 13:49 |
hrw | lardman: if you have maemo stuff running.. | 13:49 |

bedboi | inz: yep, you are right. | 14:22 |
bedboi | inz: so if i have to gtk_paint_layout the pango layout in the middle of the rectangle i have to do some math | 14:22 |
*** Jtjk has joined #maemo | 14:23 | |
Jaffa | hrw: I'd like in-place upgrades, but can understand why Nokia did it the way they did with the resources they've got available. Given limited resources, I'd rather they focussed on getting fixed firmware images out than in-place upgrades. | 14:23 |
inz | bedboi, int w,h; pango_layout_get_size(layout, w, h); gtk_paint_layout(yadayada, rect.x + (rect.width - w) / 2, rect.y + (rect.height - h) / 2); or something | 14:24 |
inz | Oops, &w, &h obviously | 14:24 |
hrw | Jaffa: it2006 backup -> it2007HE works? | 14:25 |

acydlord | how possible would it be to use the camera's orientation sensor to automatically switch the orientation in fbreader? | 15:30 |
Jaffa | Isn't the camera's "sensor" a mechanical switch on the rotation of the barrel? | 15:31 |

Jaffa | So the answer to acydlord's question would be a "no" | 15:32 |
acydlord | but it's not :p | 15:32 |
acydlord | open your camera, and rotate the 770 upside down so you can still see the screen | 15:32 |
acydlord | err 800 | 15:32 |
* shackan makes a try | 15:32 | |

timeless | both in any presentations you make and any software you write | 15:33 |

*** bergie has quit IRC | 15:35 | |
Jaffa | acydlord: 1) open the camera: see yourself; 2) turn the N800 through 180 degrees, imagining an axis from you, through the screen. It will now be upside down and still facing you; 3) you'll still appear the right way up => image not flipped. | 15:35 |

kkito | you can detect the camera movement, when there are enough movement you can do the screen rotation.... 1- open the webcam, 2-move the webcam (movement detected), 3- the screen is rotated 4- close the webcam | 15:39 |
*** booiiing has joined #maemo | 15:39 | |
kkito | and the same to rotate the screen again | 15:39 |
kkito | anyways this is high cpu intensive | 15:40 |
acydlord | i havent had any scratches on my n800, my 770 has a few hideous ones though | 15:40 |
Jaffa | shackan: keeping the thin plastic layer on it which came with it, or the actual screen itself? | 15:41 |
shackan | Jaffa, I left the plastic on | 15:41 |
acydlord | bah, my text editor can't detect the charset for the files in /usr/share/zoneinfo | 15:41 |
kkito | a "mouse" gestures feature could be cool... press the "joyupad" middle button and without release the button write the gesture to the screen | 15:41 |
kkito | to rotate, full screen, close app, etc etc.... | 15:42 |
shackan | Jaffa, was I supposed to remove the plastic ? | 15:42 |
acydlord | that would be pretty sweet | 15:42 |
acydlord | yeah, you're supposed to remove that plastic | 15:42 |

lardman | likewise, but I'd already added lots of extras to pull in the extra libraries | 16:54 |
lardman | s/extras/extra repos | 16:54 |
acydlord | yeah, first thing i did when i got home with the n800 was added all the repos they had listed in the wiki | 16:54 |
hrw | mgedmin: last release had 12000 packages available - 3-4 thousands of source packages was used to build repository | 16:55 |
lardman | hrw: Agreed, this is why all of the various repos ought to be centralised, though not necessarily by Nokia | 16:55 |
acydlord | if i could only get this clock problem fixed i'd be happy for now | 16:55 |
lardman | hrw: Which is where MUD or OE steps in | 16:55 |
hrw | lardman: I just wonder why after about 2 years from release of n770 it is still not done | 16:56 |
*** matt_c has quit IRC | 16:56 | |
lardman | hrw: OE took a while to happen | 16:56 |
hrw | lardman: even sharprom users got repository with OE software | 16:57 |
lardman | hrw: Only because OE existed though. People reach the limits of what they can do (compiling things themselves), then they look for another way; that's much like what happened for openzaurus. | 16:58 |
*** waite has left #maemo | 16:58 | |
lardman | hrw: I think that as more devices and software versions cohabit (and therefore need to be built and maintained), there may be even more drive to automate the building and patching, which is what OE stemmed from | 16:59 |
osfameronx | what's OE? | 16:59 |
lardman | OpenEmbedded | 16:59 |
lardman | http://openembedded.org | 16:59 |
osfameronx | looks like the same kind of thing as scratchbox ? | 17:00 |
hrw | osfameronx: buildsystem capable of building packages, toolchains, distributions for many different machines/architectures | 17:00 |
hrw | osfameronx: more then | 17:00 |
* timeless wonders how friendly the flasher is to random platforms | 17:00 | |
timeless | has anyone here looked at how the osx flasher works? :) | 17:00 |
Jaffa | Part of the problem with the extras repository stems from the version/codename mess that Maemo 2.x/3.0 had. ie. "mistral/scirocco/gregale" all effectively being compatible, and often compatible with bora | 17:00 |
*** inode0 has joined #maemo | 17:01 | |
Jaffa | timeless: reverse engineering the USB protocol is your best bet. | 17:01 |
timeless | jaffa: not quite on my todo list | 17:01 |
lardman | Jaffa: At the moment they are compatible, but that needn't be the case forever | 17:01 |
lardman | Does anyone know whether a .install file can be used to just add a repo? Do they act temporarily by adding the repo to install some package, or is the repo then saved for later use too? | 17:03 |
Jaffa | lardman: no, and when they're not compatible, change the version number. Debian don't change "sarge" to "bob" when they change a version. | 17:03 |
Jaffa | lardman: they can just add a repo, I believe. And the repos remain. | 17:03 |
lardman | Jaffa: Cool, thanks | 17:03 |
lardman | Jaffa: There should be some install files on the http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationRepositories page then | 17:03 |
lardman | IMO anyway | 17:04 |
suihkulokki | Well I think it's stupid to make give codenames to releases that are 100% bugfixes only | 17:04 |
suihkulokki | 2.0, 2.1, 2.2 where all just bugfixes | 17:04 |
* Jaffa wonders if we'd be better off just getting rid of all of the mistral/scirocco/gregale/bora distinction, and just use "Depends: maemo (>= 3.0)" in the package. | 17:04 | |
Jaffa | lardman: agreed | 17:04 |
*** bipolar has joined #maemo | 17:07 | |
lardman | The version thing would be solved by depending on a Maemo package, or on any other package that is updated between the versions. But this assumes a single repo that holds all of the debs for a given release | 17:07 |
hrw | Jaffa: and make people more annoyed because they have soft in package manager and cant install it | 17:07 |
lardman | hrw: How's this done with OZ, I can't remember | 17:07 |
Jaffa | lardman: yes, the point is that it'd make it easier for both users and developers to use ExtrasRepository | 17:07 |
shackan | bloody hell, I just feel so dumb, iwconfig eth1 mode ad-hoc essid .... channel 1 key restricted .... and the bloody tablet does not connect (at least, it gets no dhcp) | 17:07 |
lardman | Jaffa: Yes it would indeed | 17:08 |
Jaffa | hrw: maybe. But that can be solved in the UI. | 17:08 |
lardman | Or by not adding repos that they can't install stuff from | 17:08 |
*** osfameronx is now known as osfameron | 17:08 | |
hrw | Jaffa: by testing ALL packages descriptions to know which are installable? you are insane | 17:08 |
*** jwb_gone is now known as jwb | 17:09 | |
Jaffa | hrw: eh? it's only the system meta-package you need to worry about, presumably other dependencies would be resolvable. And when in-place upgrades are possible, you can lift the restriction anyway. | 17:09 |
*** devesh has joined #maemo | 17:10 | |
*** mrspockie has joined #maemo | 17:10 | |
Jaffa | Hildon App Mgr is already parsing Maemo-Icon-26 from every package description to render an icon, checking a Depends: maemo (>= 3.0) should be perfectly doable. | 17:11 |
hrw | ok | 17:11 |
hrw | I have to go | 17:11 |
hrw | cu | 17:11 |
lardman | bye hrw | 17:11 |
lardman | Jaffa: So that's why it's so damn slow! | 17:11 |
Jaffa | bye | 17:11 |
Jaffa | lardman: :) | 17:11 |
Jaffa | Hell, you could even filter them at the `apt-get update' stage. | 17:12 |
lardman | Yes, that would probably be the best way, though then it becomes a bit more non-standard | 17:12 |
lardman | Why not just separate the repos/feeds, and then for a last check depend on maemoX.x.x too | 17:13 |
lardman | which is much like what we have atm | 17:13 |
acydlord | can i edit a text file from osso-xterm without installing vi? | 17:13 |
*** matt_c has joined #maemo | 17:13 | |
lardman | with the official repository.maemo.org stuff | 17:13 |
lardman | acydlord: vi is installed by default isn't it? | 17:13 |
acydlord | not on the n800 | 17:14 |
acydlord | oh, guess it is =x | 17:14 |
acydlord | i need either coffee or sleep | 17:14 |
Jaffa | lardman: because as a developer I don't want to compile the same thing 4 times and upload it to loads of different repositories (even using mud); as a user I don't want to add mistral repositories to my N800 in case it contains software which isn't compatible. but I've got to, as a minor API change occurs and a whole new repo is required. | 17:14 |
acydlord | now i just need to remember how to use vi | 17:15 |
lardman | Jaffa: That's where MUD should handle deps, and auto build for different distros (like OE/bitbake) | 17:16 |
lardman | I think that's the point hrw was trying to get across: when a new openzaurus release is produced, it comes with a whole feed of packages that have been compiled to be compatible with it | 17:17 |
lardman | the same sort of thing would be good for the various maemo releases | 17:17 |
lardman | especially for third party applications | 17:17 |
devesh | acylord: isnt nano there ??? | 17:18 |
Jaffa | lardman: agreed, but we're a way off from that. | 17:19 |
acydlord | nope | 17:19 |
acydlord | nano isnt in xterm | 17:19 |
Tak | makes sense - nano requires ctrl+blah to do anything | 17:20 |
mgedmin | maemo-hackers xterm lets you use ctrl+blah | 17:21 |
Tak | yeah, but it didn't always ;-) | 17:21 |

devesh | does anyone knows how to enable hildon theme for a gtk application launched as sudo ? | 18:23 |
mgedmin | can you not launch the application with sudo? | 18:26 |
mgedmin | on recent ubuntu systems synaptic runs as user, then invokes gksu for the actual package installation | 18:27 |
devesh | mgedmin : yes for desktop with a proper concept of multiuser not like n770 | 18:27 |
k-s | devesh: on maemo, try to run with run-standalone | 18:27 |
mgedmin | how does the application manager work? it also needs root, and it is themed | 18:27 |
devesh | k-s: isnt that more for scratchbox | 18:27 |
mgedmin | are the sources of the app manager available? | 18:28 |
k-s | devesh: no, it sets environment | 18:28 |
mgedmin | I think so, for some reason | 18:28 |
k-s | mgedmin: yes, look at the repository.maemo.org | 18:28 |
neal | devesh : Why don't you use a sub-process which runs as root and communicate with that? | 18:28 |
devesh | mgedmin : application manager is better architected, it has a worker process running as root , and the UI i think talks over pipe | 18:28 |
neal | devesh : Then you also control the complexity of the privileged code | 18:28 |
devesh | neal : yes, but it would involve quite much rewrite of synaptic :( | 18:29 |
*** flyingfred0 has joined #maemo | 18:29 | |
Jaffa | devesh: running the entirety of a GUI app as root isn't great, you should be able to use the existing app manager's sudo entries so users won't even need to gainroot. | 18:29 |
devesh | jaffa : i agree with you ... but as i said, it would be going away from synaptic common code base | 18:30 |
devesh | jaffa : i would have preffered more the gksu approach | 18:31 |
mgedmin | does gksu work on the 770? | 18:31 |
Jaffa | devesh: how does it invoke apt? system("apt-get", "install", packages) ? | 18:31 |
devesh | mgedmin : not yet ;) would require the xomap to run with auth etc ... | 18:31 |
devesh | jaffa : all over ipc pipe's .. using a proprietary (though source is available) protocol | 18:32 |
devesh | mgedmin : would also mean that user need to know his/her root password | 18:32 |
mgedmin | you mean, xomap doesn't support xauth? | 18:33 |
manaPirat | aaah .. hacking in busybox works :) | 18:33 |
mgedmin | isn't that part of the core protocol? | 18:33 |
manaPirat | but i picked the wrong build, the one without ping -.- | 18:33 |
devesh | mgedmin : yes it supports but it is not by default launched with those flags | 18:33 |
mgedmin | actually, I once tried to make sudo update-manager passwordless on my ubuntu system, and that broke it completely | 18:34 |
acydlord | wordpress = the slow on n800 | 18:34 |
mgedmin | I began to suspect that gksu/gksudo doesn't support passwordless sudo | 18:34 |
devesh | mgedmin : but i suspect even with gksu, i would still run in that theme problem | 18:34 |
*** Disconnect has joined #maemo | 18:35 | |
devesh | maybe best bet is to try run-standalone, i have though never tried that on device | 18:35 |
devesh | and i think that still will not work ... i think the moment you sudo .. env is reset except for HOME and DISPLAY | 18:36 |
k-s | devesh: run sudo run-standalone.sh | 18:37 |
k-s | devesh: run sudo run-standalone.sh app | 18:37 |
devesh | k-s : i will give it a shot | 18:38 |
devesh | k-s : but does that mean i will have to add run-standalone.sh to sudoer file . that would be nasty | 18:39 |
mgedmin | make your app a shell script that runs-standalone.sh on your app.bin | 18:40 |
k-s | devesh: add your own wrapper, that does run-standalone | 18:40 |

thomasvs | hi. My n800 locked up. I had to take out the battery. Now it doesn't properly boot. The boot log shows that there is a problem with an erase block on the root file system. | 20:05 |
thomasvs | What can I use to extract the jffs2 root and analyze it on my machine ? | 20:05 |
trenka | boot from mmc ? | 20:06 |
thomasvs | trenka: ok, and after that ? | 20:06 |
trenka | I guess you can use mtd subsystem for your purposes | 20:07 |

guerby | keesj, my ISP provides SIP so I installed gizmo and used the SIP capability of gizmo | 20:13 |
guerby | keesj, I believe gizmo also provide SIP if you pay | 20:14 |
panthar | Is there an equivalent to home-image-loader in os2007? I'm looking to convert some older themes to install cleanly. | 20:19 |
panthar | And one of the steps in the postinst calls /usr/bin/home-image-loader | 20:20 |

lirelent | hello | 22:37 |
lirelent | anyone know how to get around the "permission denied error" when running binaries off the mmc card? | 22:40 |
koen | you mounted it with -o user? | 22:41 |
lirelent | i just pluged it in | 22:41 |
lirelent | but even running it as root doesn't work | 22:42 |
lirelent | and chmod 777 doesn't change the flags | 22:42 |
lirelent | until i move it to internal flash | 22:42 |
suihkulokki | that FAT filesystem for you | 22:42 |
lirelent | then chmod 777 works | 22:42 |
lirelent | and it runs just fine | 22:42 |
lirelent | suihkulokki that's what google seems to indicate | 22:43 |
lirelent | so should I just try to format it as ext2? | 22:43 |
lirelent | or 3 for that matter? | 22:43 |
s-ndh-c | lirelent: try mount -o remount,exec /media/mmc1 | 22:47 |
s-ndh-c | that seems to work for me | 22:47 |
*** snorkelyd has joined #maemo | 22:47 | |
lirelent | is there a way to always mount the card exec? | 22:48 |
s-ndh-c | i guess editing the fstab file would be the way | 22:48 |
s-ndh-c | never tried that | 22:49 |
s-ndh-c | :) | 22:49 |
*** Tahitibob has joined #maemo | 22:49 | |
lirelent | i have to admit haking the n770 is world easier then the sl-5500 | 22:51 |
lirelent | nicer device too | 22:51 |
Tak | too bad sharp never marketed the clamshell models in the us | 22:52 |
glas5 | clamshells would have been nice | 22:52 |
glas5 | 5500 was nice for it's time | 22:52 |
glas5 | coupled with the first gprs phones.. | 22:52 |
lirelent | well no luck with editing the fstab | 22:59 |
lirelent | that's annoying | 22:59 |
lirelent | though the remount trick does work | 22:59 |
lirelent | is there a startup script that gets run that I could add that to? | 22:59 |

*** Pierre- has joined #maemo | 23:34 | |
konttori | I'm having trouble with .desktop entry for a python file. For some reason the file isn't working when I run it from the extras folder. Is there a log that might help me see why that is? | 23:34 |
*** pcfe has joined #maemo | 23:35 | |
konttori | when I run from console python app.py, it works. even if I run it python /usr/bin/app , it works. | 23:35 |
konttori | But it doesn't run with /usr/bin/app . SHould it run with that comman in console? | 23:36 |
tigert | ok cool | 23:36 |
konttori | Any ideas? | 23:37 |
konttori | so, the desktop and service files seem to be working properly, but the app isn't opening. | 23:40 |
*** Pierre- is now known as Pierre | 23:40 | |
konttori | are capital letters illegal for a service name? | 23:41 |
*** koen has quit IRC | 23:42 | |
Tak | does app begin with #!/usr/bin/python (or whatever) ? | 23:43 |
konttori | #! /usr/bin/env python | 23:43 |
konttori | yeah | 23:43 |
konttori | If I try to run it as /usr/bin/app, I get: No such file or directory | 23:44 |
*** pdz- has joined #maemo | 23:44 | |
Tak | try stripping out the space between #! and /u ? | 23:44 |
konttori | thanks | 23:45 |
konttori | might help | 23:45 |
konttori | could be that the correct is: #!/usr/bin/env python2.5 | 23:49 |
Tak | well, does `env python` get you anything from the shell? | 23:49 |
konttori | yeah | 23:50 |
konttori | ok, so it does not matter if its python or python2.5 | 23:50 |
konttori | oh, do I have to import hildon or osso? | 23:51 |
konttori | is the osso context mandatory? | 23:51 |
Tak | I wouldn't think so if the app runs when you call python explicitly | 23:52 |
Tak | or are we on to a different issue? | 23:52 |
konttori | yeah, app runs from python just fine | 23:52 |
konttori | and we're still in the same issue | 23:52 |
konttori | app isn't running from console | 23:53 |
