neostridereveraldo, downloading gregalle!03:53
neostriderfolks @ indt recommended me using gregalle03:53
neostriderand it should be just like bora in structural terms03:54
everaldoneostrider, hey03:59
everaldoneostrider, why use gregale?03:59
neostridermore compatible with 770 than bora04:00
everaldoneostrider, where you donwload it?04:02
neostridermaemo main repository04:03
everaldoneostrider, hey.. gregale is 2.204:03
neostrideryeah04:03
everaldoI have it04:03
everaldo:)04:03
neostrider=-D04:03
neostriderI guess bora packages doesnt work very well with the 77004:03
everaldobut most time I use bora04:03
everaldobora is 3.0, more compatible with N80004:04
neostrideryeah...but you have a 770, right?04:10
neostriderand most things that work with 770 will also work with n80004:11

JaffaMorning, all10:32
glas55mornings10:32
dolfunJaffa, glas55 i don't suppose you understand pixel-doubling internals on the 770?10:36
glas55no idea really10:38
dolfunok thanks10:39
baais that handled by s1d on the n800?10:39
baaerr, s1d1374x10:39
dolfundunno.  my problem is that a number of sdl calls seem to disable the 2x scaling, and i find no explanation as to what triggers this10:40
dolfunit's a bit of a black box, i'm afraid10:41
baawish i understood sdl so i could try & help out.10:47
baafeel bad for sdl people, hearing about the ~20 fps bandwidth constraint on n800's offboard lcd controller.10:49
dolfunmost games you can just update portions of the screen10:53
dolfunwhich is exactly my trouble with doubling on the 770.  only the current putrect() block is displayed doubled, then everything goes back to single10:54
dolfunsometimes, not always.  i've managed to reduce it by culling out all the sdl-locks10:54
dolfunbut as i said, it's total guesswork on my part and playing combinatorial guesses against this unknown device10:55
*** KermitTheFragger has joined #maemo10:55

inzif the home plugins listens on dbus14:11
Guardianbleh sometimes i find that gtk just sucks: i have 2 radio buttons, button1 and button2. button1 is active, then i click button2 ==> button1 receives a "clicked" signal. ffs button1 has been "toggled" and button2 has been "clicked and toggled"14:12
Guardianwhy bother documenting stuff that does not behave like it's documented then ...14:12
Guardianor maybe it's the compatiblity excuse: "we're sorry, it used to suck so we need to keep it sucking"  like java does for utf8 boms in streams :D14:13
ptman_utf8 bom? it shouldn't have anything like that14:15
*** luckunko has joined #maemo14:15
ptman_UTF-16 has BOM14:15
ptman_sorry for the nitpicking14:15
*** ptman_ is now known as ptman14:15
Guardianwell according to http://www.unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#BOM , there can be a BOM14:16
Guardiantypically, start messing with XML, you know XML ? the brilliant format that enables any text editor to edit the data ! edit your xml file with notepad.exe, try to read it with a java ==> exception because notepad detected utf8 content and added a BOM (well you could argue that it's because of microsoft)14:18
ptmanyes, there can ba a BOM, but it doesn't make any sense for UTF-8, as it is read one byte at a time14:20
Guardiansure14:21
ptmanUTF-16 on the other hand, is read two bytes at a time, and it's important to know which is the more significant one14:21
Guardianbut it should not crash badly, anyway we're not on #java :)14:21
ptmantrue, crashing is not a good thing, but neither is generating a BOM for UTF-814:22
Guardianin fact what puzzles me is the reason given by sun for not changing the behavior: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=450805814:24
Guardianthe reason is "a lot of stupid applications rely on it ! we need to be compatible with this fucked behavior"14:24
Guardian:)14:24
*** skandaleras is now known as skanda_out14:26
Guardianback to the subject, a radio button that is released because another radio button has been pressed should not receive a signal called "clicked"14:26

zyxulnagaguys is it possible to connect my n800 into an ethernet network?15:48
Jaffakulve: 01:17 remaining. 94% of download complete15:49
kulveI have it already, but I'll upgrade later..15:49
Takzyxulnaga: if you have a wap...15:50
dragornzyxulnaga: A wired network?  No.  Not until usb host mode works and you get a USB NIC, anyhow.15:50
zyxulnagai noticed it doesnt work like the n77015:51
zyxulnagahost mode is not supported?15:51
dragorncurrently there are no kernel drivers to do usb host mode15:51
dragornas of the last I knew anyhow15:51
zullaWhy didn't they announce the release?15:51
dragornzulla: Probably isn't really done, or still undergoing testing, or getting clearance, or...15:52
zyxulnagawhat about bluetooth to ethernet15:52
Takor waiting until #maemo quits thrashing their servers...15:52
zulladragorn: then it wouldn't be available on a public server for download.15:52
zyxulnagaI noticed there is a bluetooth adaptor that lets you get into ethernet15:52
dragornzulla: Not necessarily15:52
Takhell, they didn't even announce the n800 release15:52
kulvezyxulnaga: something like that might be possible, but the usb host mode is not15:53
zyxulnagaright15:53
dragornzulla: I've dealt with a lot of stuff where it went up on the site w/out announcements pending official stuff, or pending the web admins making the announce pages, etc.15:53
dragornzyxulnaga: There are some sort of BT "access points" which do things like that, but i've never messed with them.  At that point you might as well use 802.1115:53
JaffaUpgrade complete.15:53
zyxulnagaright15:54
disqooh new firmware!15:54
* Jaffa waits to complete the setup.15:54
dragornfigures, the firmware drops while I'm out of town and not entirely thrilled with the idea of wiping the thing15:54
c0ffeeand still no way to upgrade without losing all installed software i guess?15:55
JaffaNope15:55
zullac0ffee: they are working on that.15:55

zyxulnagaI am reading up now how to do the rootfs19:26
zyxulnagathats all i need really19:27
kulvehmm.. actually maybe it's not possible..19:27
kulvebut you might be able to do a rootfs jffs2 image that can be flashed with the flasher-tool19:27
zyxulnagahttp://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/howto_use_flasher_rootfs.html19:27
zyxulnagathis one19:27
zyxulnagayeah thats what i want19:27
kulvewith a quick thought I think you need to tar your rootfs inside the device with gnu tar and then create a jffs2 image out of it. That might work..19:29
zyxulnagaoh really?19:29
zyxulnagathats nice19:29
kulvelike I said, I really don't know if that really works..19:29
zyxulnagaso i need to convert the tar to jffs2 with dd and mkisofs?19:29
kulvebut it might :)19:29
zyxulnagait will be good trying19:29
zyxulnagai 'll give it a shot19:30

zyxulnagaright19:30
*** daniels has joined #maemo19:30
zyxulnagadont i need to make it as a single file though?19:30
zyxulnagawith dd19:30
zyxulnagaor something19:30
kulvebut don't blame me, if the new rootfs image don't work ;)19:30
zyxulnagai dont mind19:30
zyxulnagai have a couple of n800 here to test19:30
kulvemkfs.jffs2 makes a single "flashable" jffs2 image from a directory19:31
mgedminthere might be a few problems19:32
mgedmintar in the n800 limits pathnames to 100 characters19:33
mgedminsome of the files in the default image are longer than that19:33
mgedmin(iirc that's some gconf schemas and some theme images)19:33
kulvemgedmin: tar in the device or gnu tar?19:33
mgedmintar in the device19:33
mgedminwhich is busybox tar, I think19:33
danielsit is busybox tar, yes19:34
kulvemgedmin: that's why I said "gnu tar" ;)19:34
kulve(I think that means something else that the busybox's tar..)19:35
mgedminah, I didn't notice19:35
X-FadeHmmm video seems to have less tearing on the new image. It's not all gone, but better.19:35
X-FadeCanola still suffers from tearing.19:35
*** guyvdb has joined #maemo19:35
X-FadeYoutube is better, although still too slow.19:36
kulveI'm a bit surprised how well the backup & restore went.. But I didn't have any emails etc. Just few gmail contacs. But sources.list, wlan APs, statusbar & home plugin settings, theme, etc19:37
mgedminTuomas: when will hildon-theme-plankton make its way into the maemo extras repository?19:37
mgedmincool, sources.list is preserved19:37
danielsi think canola still tears because i'm dumb and only half-fixed the ui tearing issue.  i'll probably put an unofficial x server up somewhere.19:37
kulvemgedmin: yep, but it didn't rei-install all my apps ;)19:37
danielsyoutube dosn't take advantage of the hardware video acceleration we have because of flash's design (pixel precision), so you can't infer anything about youtube performance from general video (e.g. media player), and vice-versa.19:37
mgedminnow if only the app installer let me select multiple apps for installing at once...19:38
mgedminI suppose that's what sudo apt-get install is for19:38
daniels(if you're bored, you could grab the xorg-server source, and remove the plane_info->vsync = 0 line from hw/kdrive/omap/omap_plane.c to force vsync off for the ui, and rebuild.)19:38
Molagioh fuck19:39

mgedmindidn't you create the theme?19:39
Tuomasnope19:39
danielskulve: i'm an open source developer and no-one's told me to shut up yet, so i guess it's okay19:39
mgedminah, name collision19:40
danielsmgedmin: you're looking for tigert (Tuomas Kuosmannen), not Tuomas19:40
Tuomashehe =)19:40
mgedmintigert:  when will hildon-theme-plankton make its way into the maemo extras repository?19:40
danielsi'm almost certain i've misspelt tigert's surname, but that's his fault.  mine is only five letters. ;)19:40
kulvedaniels: yep. I hope the rest of the nokia people start giving details on the list. I think e.g. kernel details would be interesting to some people19:41
sp3000s/nn/n/, not too far off ;)19:41
danielskulve: anything in particular? i hack on the kernel when i have time away from x.19:41
* mgedmin found repositories for all of his installed packages except for hildon-theme-plankton and hildon-theme-sketchy (and hildon-theme-cacher that is needed by both)19:41
danielskulve: most of it's pretty straightforward; the generic drivers are generic, and there's a whole sub-architecture and omap framework within the kernel.19:42
kulvedaniels: not really. I'm just generally curious. But e.g. the mmc stuff has been on the discussions..19:42
danielskulve: so the n800-specific stuff is basically all contained within arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n800*19:42
mgedminhm, https://garage.maemo.org/projects/theme-plankton/ has 0 files and 0 adds in svn19:43

hapand when is supposed skype to be released?20:32
danielsTak|work: well, pixel doubling is exposed to apps, but in reality we can do arbitrary upscaling20:32
Tak|workeven better20:32
danielsin theory, we can do downscaling by factors of half and one-quarter, but it's difficult to implement and no-one asked for it, so20:33
Tak|workis there a published api for the upscaling?20:33
mgedminit seems that the hardware keys not working bug is fixed20:33
mgedminthat makes me very happy20:33

luckunkoguerby, using the application manager21:27
mgedminsometimes it complains about some unrelated repository21:27
guerbymgedmin, how do I get the log?21:27
guerby(I disabled all repo)21:27
mgedminand then you have to go to the app manager and find the package by itself21:27

tigertthe stuff that is being developed is totally different code and stuff21:38
guerbymgedmin, saved, I was able to install libncurse then osso-xterm21:38
tigertso things are way "too late" in that sense21:38
KevinVermawell it will be great if the development of maemo can be free / liberal as fedora or gentoo kind of projects21:38

tigertsince we are moving at a different pace internally21:40
tigertwhich sucks21:40
tigertbut sardine tries to fix that21:40
tigertwe are now really pushing it as our internal devel platform21:40
KevinVermai have a blessing of having lot many embedded developers backing interesting ideas where i work ... but then21:40
tigertthus it hopefully wont be so fricken broken all the time21:40
KevinVermathey tried to add fun to my n800 device ... but asked me to attach a serial port .....21:41
KevinVermanow a serial port ?21:41
KevinVermawas it easy as an accessory ?21:41
tigertit has one21:41
KevinVermaNO21:41
KevinVermai could solder one !21:41
tigertbut it needs this thingy21:41
zyxulnagathe omap board supports it21:42
tigertsince there are just contact pads21:42

zyxulnagait waits a bit in the main screen with the product, hw-build info22:19
zyxulnagai guess there could be something wrong with the tar path22:19
zyxulnagamaybe i had to append /22:19
keesjI still can't login to the downloads is that a known issue?22:20

pantharkeesj: do you know how the Connection Manager knows when a connection is... connected?22:23
*** klausade has joined #maemo22:24
kulveprobably through the conic api22:24
pantharwish I could just send it a dbus message and say, 'yup, connection worked'22:25
kulvepanthar: have you checked http://maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/howto_connectivity_guide_bora.html22:26
kulvepanthar: what do you mean actually..?22:26
pantharwell, I can watch for the PAN connection attempt easily, set the thing up nicely22:27
pantharthen I want to tell the connection manager that it succeeded22:27
kulveI think the connection manager is just a gui to the user.. Telling something to it doesn't affect anything..22:28
pantharwell, behind the scenes22:28
sxperttigert, ok, got something. apparently you have to use obexftp ...22:28
sp3000oh bloody kitten on a flaming bicycle22:28
sxpertguess I'll be writing some python code22:28
pantharbut the link you pasted could help a lot..22:28
sp3000if I search for %Xterm% or *Xterm* it finds it22:29
sp3000nobody's done search like that since the 90s22:29
sp3000and even then they'd find whole words :(22:30
kulvepanthar: for 770 there's also http://maemo.org/maemowiki/DummyIAP22:31
kulvebut I think I haven't seen similar for n80022:31
pantharyeah, that's what I'm trying to make work :)22:31
panthara workaround for lack of dummy22:31
mgedminwow22:31
* mgedmin suddenly wants to search for something like xterm'; DELETE FROM *22:32
sp3000mgedmin: yeah, the org_openpsa_products_search%5B3%5D%5Bconstraint%5D=LIKE part of the url gave me a hint22:33
mgedminwhew, looks like quotes are escaped properly, so no sql injection bugs22:35

Veggenapart from a full tar of /home/user and the package list, is there usually anything else I need that the standard backup util doesn't take?22:54
haphow do you get the package list btw22:54
hapdpkg --list-packages ?22:54
panthardpkg -l shows what's installed22:54
Veggenhap: dpkg --get-selections is useful.22:54
hapah yeah22:55
haptoo late, i'm downloading the firmware22:55
sp3000Veggen: why not everything, it doesn't take that long after all22:55
Veggentrue.22:55

sp3000ah, those break on the project pages themselves23:08
sp3000nm23:08
sp3000hm, no, tuxpaint doesn't23:08
sp3000that only breaks for me with http://downloads.maemo.org/search/none in the search, not on its own page, where it gets the grey arrow23:09
*** krau has joined #maemo23:09
sp3000which is the case I ran to23:09

*** pdz has quit IRC23:10
sp3000wait a second23:10
* sp3000 is confused now23:11
* sp3000 wonders what sort of magic crack makes a search for 'tux' find TuxPaint but not TuxPuck23:13
Tak|workor 'chat' not find "maemo x-chat"23:16
* sp3000 monitors another artifact23:17
sp3000I'm such an artifact monitor23:17
sxpertthere, I can spawn "obexftp" and read the xml file that comes back ;D23:18
sxpertnow I need to analyse that xml file ;D23:19
Tak|workhell, even a search for tuxpuck doesn't find tuxpuck23:20
Tak|workit's unsearchable23:20
Tak|worksame with maemo x-chat23:21
mgedminxchat can be found if you search for "x-chat"23:21

Veggen....reinstalling all the packages semi-automatically now.23:33
Veggen(tho, confirming every install)23:33
guerbyVeggen, how semi automatic?23:34
* sp3000 doesn't23:34
Veggenwith --get-selections to file, then:23:34
* sp3000 is curious about to what extent finding and installing stuff manually sucks less now than last time23:34
Veggenfor i in `cat /path/to/packagelist | cut -f1`; do apt-get install $i;done23:35
Veggentho, better remove busybox first from the list, just to be sure :)23:36
sp3000hm23:36
guerbyVeggen, you're more organized than me :)23:36
sp3000if osso-xterm depends on vera, why doesn't it default to it?23:36
sp3000or, conversely, why depend on it if you don't default to it23:36
guerbyanyway I spent two hours on this one: https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99823:36
sp3000it should of course, it's that dramatically better23:37
* sp3000 slaps gforge23:38
sp3000so I'll receive notifications if I comment, so it tells me23:38
Veggentho, everything that's not from a repository is lost, I guess. Have to find out that I miss it. Half of it, I won't, tho ;)23:39
sp3000but if I run across something interesting, it's hard to know if I need not to monitor because I've commented23:39
*** pleemans has quit IRC23:39
sp3000then again, clicking on monitor isn't much work23:39
* sp3000 shrugs23:39
guerbyvideo is indeed waaaaaaayy better23:40

*** behdad has joined #maemo23:45
mgedminat least audio doesn't stutter any more when you switch quality to low23:45
mgedminbut you have to do that manually for each flash movie, the plugin resets it to high every time23:46
