acydlordthats not a bad deal at that price01:07
acydlordi've heard nokia can be difficult and lengthy on repairs01:07
Prez_what's the name of the free voip app for the n800?  i just upgraded the OS and lost the app01:08
Sonejhmm, cant find if they deliver to Sweden. They want me to fill in state01:08
acydlordgizmo project01:08
Prez_that's it..01:08
danielsSonej: bear in mind if you're ordering from the US, they'll make you pay customs on it, which will likely obliterate any price advantage01:09
acydlordi hope skype will suppord video when they release it01:09
danielsSonej: look for a store in the uk01:09
*** uNtouched has quit IRC01:09
Sonejhmm, i see. Or maby i should order it to my sis in San Fran...01:09
*** behdad has quit IRC01:10
Prez_any idea on volume of n800s sold?01:10
danielsSonej: even if she sends it to you, customs will still screw you.  you'll have to strip it out of the box, make it look as if it's used, and declare its value as being really low.01:11
acydlordmore than 770's im sure lol01:11
danielsSonej: (i live in finland, customs here are brutal.  i got something like €30 duty on a $us70 order of clothes and cds.  sigh.)01:11
Prez_wow01:11
Sonejcrapp, i will never get my n800. I wont pay €399 for it01:12
Prez_customs are nasty here too, I'm in Nicaragua, we get a break on $500 worth of good tax free every 6 months..01:12
danielsSonej: try looking in the uk and germany, they're traditionally quite cheap01:12
danielsPrez_: ouch.  australia wasn't too bad, every shipment could be $au400 without question, though they later bumped that down to $au250.01:12
Sonejebay maby?01:12
danielsi also managed to convince a customs official on the phone that a pots -> sip gateway was purely physical, as it was in patch bay form, and involved no electronics, and thus incurred no duty ...01:13
*** guyvdb has left #maemo01:13

Prez_anyone able to use calendar from evolution in N800?01:26
SonejIs it easy to change the language on the N800?01:27

paul-bestok possibly silly question, I've noticed that the cheapest bluetooth keyboard I can find is the apple bluetooth keyboard.06:55
paul-besthas anybody tried it out with the n800?06:55
*** pdz has quit IRC06:58
tchanapple bluetooth keyboard is HID compliant and works just fine on the 770. It should work fine on the n800.07:03
paul-bestcool, I may pick one of those up if I can't find the folding nokia one at a reasonable price.07:06
paul-bestare there any easily stowed, reasonably priced, easy to find bluetooth keyboards that work with the n800 that are worth mentioning?07:07
*** everaldo has joined #maemo07:08
wasabiI like the nokia su-8w07:10
wasabiit's the same size as he n770 folded.07:10
wasabiBut it's really small, hard to use.07:10
*** unique311 has quit IRC07:12
paul-bestIts also expensive, seeing as I could buy a full size keyboard that would work for it for less than half as much, or the nifty laser keyboard thing for about the same price.07:14
tchancheckout stowaway sierra bluetooth keyboard for $79 from amazon.com07:14
*** bencer has joined #maemo07:16
paul-bestthe least I've been able to find the su-8w for so far is ~$13007:16
paul-bestscratch that, just found it for $112.07:20
paul-beststill, cheaper options than that are welcome.07:20
tchancheckout stowaway sierra bluetooth keyboard for $79 from amazon.com, latest/greatest bluetooth keyboard07:28

kulvedaniels: where's the source for x?09:16
tigertpaul-best: have you also tried to learn the thumb keyboard?09:19
tigertpaul-best: being an on-screen keyboard it of course has some drawbacks, but it works well enough for me that I dont really feel like hauling a bluetooth one around09:19
paul-besttigert: I haven't got one yet, but when I do I'll try.09:19
tigertnot least because a bluetooth keyboard requires you to sit down to type09:20
tigertthe thumb popup keyboard is nice for typing while walking etc09:20
paul-besttigert: you'd be a person to ask this, are there any simple artistic apps for the n800?09:20
tigertsketch :) :P09:20
tigertthere was tuxpaint and hmm,09:21
paul-bestIn particular I'm curious if there is one that can output svg files.09:21
paul-bestbecause if there isn't I might be interested in taking a crack at that.09:21
tigertmaemopad+ is a touch-pressure sensitive draw note making app (it also does text nodes)09:21
tigertno vector tools i know of09:22
acydlordtigert, do you have the theme templated hosted?09:22
tigertthe theme template is in svn09:22
acydlordahh, i should be not lazy and check =x09:22

acydlordi found a computer in my closet, gonna use it strictly as a server/dev box09:23

tigertsure, the feel of the dpad could be better09:39
dolfunyes, that is 1, and 2. no simultaneous keypresses and 3 no right hand buttons09:41
dolfunlike the original ibm PC, someone said "thou shalt not play games"09:42
dolfuni am going to have to change game dynamics in UQM to make it winnable09:44
paul-bestat least for me picking it up later this week, gaming is the last thing on my mind.09:44
paul-beststill though, I bet nethack and muds would be doable on it.09:45
dolfunthe puzzles and strategy type games are excellent, as is scummvm09:45
paul-bestI'm going to have to figure out a way to recover data off of my old sam and max floppies then.09:46
paul-bestI haven't even got a floppy drive anymore.09:46
dolfunthe internettablettalk.com forums have some pointers to good games09:48
dolfunmaybe sam and max is on abandonware sites09:48
paul-bestcould be09:49
paul-bestlike I said though, gaming on it hasn't even crossed my mind as I've been checking the n800 out.09:50
paul-bestpartly because I've got a last-generation gameboy advance.09:50
*** makuchaku has joined #maemo09:50

nomiswhoah. I hate this kind of "bug resolution": https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12212:06
nomis"Closed by error manager 03-26-2007, No activity on Sputnik+"12:06
nomisW.T.F.12:07
dolfunlooks like a fair-to-good resource for obscure video: http://www.publicdomaintorrents.com12:07
jku_nomis, I noticed that too, an explanation which doesn't really explain anything to an outsider with references to internal release codenames and job descriptions...12:10
jku_on the other hand "status:WONTFIX" probably tells us everything we need to know12:12
kulveyou should state that on the bugzilla. Nokia internal people understands the comment, but, as you said, it's not suitable for public bugzilla12:12

Kyylanope 200714:23
RealNitrothat's odd14:23
Kyylaill reboot this sucker and try again14:23
sp3000hmm, I get that too14:25
Kyylaim sorry to hear that14:25
Kyylareboot helped14:26
Kyylaclassic14:26
RealNitrolol14:26
Kyylatheres something fishy about this14:26
Kyylaanyway thanks for help14:26
* sp3000 is pretty sure he's shutdown once or twice since flashing14:27
Kyylayeah me too14:27
sp3000works after boot, yes14:28
RealNitromaybe it stops working when the device has been turned on for a while?14:31

*** sbaturzio has quit IRC15:33
* konttori has changed to irssi and is confused whether it's working or not.15:33
c0ffeeofcourse irssi works :)15:33
k-s[WORK]konttori: nice ui for you mp15:33
ptmankonttori: seems to work nicely15:33
k-s[WORK]konttori: is it pygame or what?15:33
konttoriptman: Great to hear that!15:33
konttoripygame. yeah15:33
devhi konttori15:34
k-s[WORK]konttori: i have to try it yet, just read your post15:34
konttoriUses DSP for playback (so bood battery life)15:34
k-s[WORK]konttori: is it working fast (ui-wise)?15:34
konttorik-s: yeah, pretty fast15:34
k-s[WORK]konttori: what do you use for playback? Gstreamer?15:34
konttorigstreamer, yeah15:34
k-s[WORK]konttori: you said it's sluggish to scroll15:35
konttoriI think it's the only way to get dsp playback15:35
k-s[WORK]konttori: you may use Nokia's media engine, throught dbus calls15:35
konttoriHas been an uphill battle at times though.15:35
konttorik-s: what's that?15:35
*** lsobral has joined #maemo15:35
konttorik-s: is that somehow better than the gstreamer?15:35
k-s[WORK]konttori: it uses gstreamer underneath15:36
k-s[WORK]konttori: is the same engine maemo media player and canola uses15:36
konttoriahh... so, what's the advantage?15:36
*** chenca has joined #maemo15:36
ptmanit probably already loaded into memory15:36
k-s[WORK]konttori: it controls the pipeline and (in theory) controls multiple access to dsp15:36
konttorik-s: I see. I might try that in the future (near future). d-bus connection isn't working properly yet, so ... after it is, I might be tempted to try that15:37
konttoriAnyway, I'm just happy that I got the gstreamer working ;)15:37
*** Eloi has quit IRC15:38
*** Eloi has joined #maemo15:38
k-s[WORK]konttori: sure15:38
k-s[WORK]konttori: at least you'll avoid problems we have in canola :-)15:39
konttoriptman: So, was it so that you had quite a few songs in your system. Was the first startup agonizingly slow as it loaded the covers from the net?15:39
k-s[WORK]konttori: so, about scroll being sluggish, you better convert the surface before blitting15:39
dolfun_hah mplayer pixel doubling breaks when synergyc cursor is moved15:39
ptmankonttori: I just tested it with a couple and it went fine15:39
Jaffakonttori: considered functionality to use a JPEG file alongside the album if present, to save net connections?15:40
ptmankonttori: and internet access was probably mostly slowed thanks to my connection15:40
*** dolfun has quit IRC15:40
konttorik-s: You mean to static version?15:40
k-s[WORK]konttori: static?15:41
konttoriJaffa: You can put the jpeg to covers on your mmc (and rename it as cdname). I might add a test to get cover from the album folder. But the current model only retrieves the cover once and stores it to covers.15:42
JaffaI see.15:42
konttorik-s: whatever the surface conversion does.15:42
JaffaLooks like it could be good - still a bit rough round the edges compared with Canola - but the reflections are cool15:42
konttorioh, you meant conversion to 16 bit15:42
konttoriHmm.. I thought it was already in 16 bit. If not, I'll do that in the evening15:43
k-s[WORK]Jaffa: http://zrusin.blogspot.com/2007/03/reflections.html15:43
k-s[WORK]Jaffa: if we use qt... ;-)15:43
konttorik-: I think there was an option in the sprites I use to set it to be static, which should improve the blitting speed a bit.15:43
Jaffak-s[WORK]: heh, although 60fps at ~10% CPU on a 3GHz P4 with OpenGL-supporting NVIDI graphics card is a *bit* away from a 250/330MHz ARM processor ;-)15:44
k-s[WORK]konttori: be aware that SDL (and thus pygame) cannot convert images with alpha to 16bit, it will loose the alpha channel... in this case, better use a C-written blit and convert, use it from python...15:44
danielsdolfun_: yes, pixel doubling will break like that15:44
k-s[WORK]Jaffa: fps is fixed, be aware of that ;-)15:44
konttorik-s: although those sprites (album covers) don't need any alpha anyway.15:44
danielsdolfun_: hardware, er, feature.  not much we can do about htat.15:45
*** dneary has joined #maemo15:45
dnearyqgil?15:45
danielsk-s[WORK]: er, qt wouldn't help15:45
danielsk-s[WORK]: if anything, it would make things worse.  c++ introduces a fair bit of overhead.15:45
danielsk-s[WORK]: qt wouldn't enable us to do things like that.  either using the mbx 3d core, or switching to umpc-like hardware that was much more performant (and used a zillion times more power, and required cooling) would enable us to do things like that.15:46
danielsdneary: jabber says he's gone home; he works pretty early15:47
danielsdneary: so email may be best15:47
k-s[WORK]daniels: this c++ overhead is just bullshit... just look to Gobject's overhead... that couldn't be optimized... C++ can be15:47
dnearydaniels: Thanks15:47
dnearyWish I could stop working at lunchtime ;)15:47
k-s[WORK]daniels: but yes, qt wouldn't help in this case, since it's a hw issue15:48
Robot101dneary: to be fair, they are +2 :)15:48
dnearyRobot101: So am I now15:48
dnearySummertiiime...15:48
dolfun_daniels: know of any code samples of sdl that works with pixel doubling?15:48
Robot101dneary: ah, oh. these finns arrive at like 6am though :D15:48
dnearyAnd the livin' is eassaaay15:48
dnearyFish are jumpin'...15:48
dnearyan' the cotton is hiiiigh....15:48
danielsk-s[WORK]: no, it's not bullshit.  it's not as large as it's made out to be, but function dispatch in c is blindingly fast.  in c++ it is not, due to the compiler and loader not exactly being great, but also because your vtable is about nine million times larger and more complex.15:48
* dneary stops now15:48
danielsk-s[WORK]: (fwiw, i'm an ex-kde developer.)15:49
danielsdolfun_: hw limitation, really15:49
Robot101dneary: :)15:49
k-s[WORK]just try to optimize callbacks and damn g_..._type() evaluation for nothing15:49
dolfun_ok daniels will continue poring over the code that works (fceu)15:49
k-s[WORK]it's the same15:49
k-s[WORK]llvm and newer compiler techs does pretty good at optimizing c++15:50
danielsk-s[WORK]: i'm talking about c vs. c++, not gobject vs c++.15:50
danielsk-s[WORK]: g++ is undoubtedly far better than it was, but that really isn't saying much at all15:50
k-s[WORK]daniels: misusing c can make it worse than using correct c++15:50
k-s[WORK]problem is that is easy to misuse c :-(15:51
danielssure, so the lesson here is: don't write bad code.15:51
k-s[WORK]sure15:51
k-s[WORK]so rip off some current code we use today :-(15:51
danielsbut my point remains that switching from c to c++ for everything on our device would introduce a huge overhead.15:52
danielsk-s[WORK]: no argument there15:52
k-s[WORK]sure15:52
k-s[WORK]but the overhead being human resources, not cpu15:52
danielsno, cpu and memory resources.15:52
danielsyour vtable is larger and more complex.15:52
k-s[WORK]we still need measures on that15:52

k-s[WORK]daniels: to do same features on both c and c++, vtables would be not much larger15:53
danielsyou don't need a measure to realise that __Z9do_somethingI8someotherstuffgoeshereparticularlyifyouhaveafewarguments is larger than do_something15:53
danielsi'm obviously not denying that c++ has its benefits, but that it produces larger and more complex code than equivalent straight c (not talking about gobject here) is axiomatic.15:54
danielsanyway, lunchtime15:54

konttoriJaffa: Any recommendations how to improve the media player?16:00
*** andrunko has joined #maemo16:00
k-s[WORK]konttori: you can use our (canola) db and scanner16:01
k-s[WORK]it will be lgpl anyway16:01
Jaffakonttori: smoother (or at least half step) scrolling, with 11 albums the album view got awfully confusing; bigger text; button surrounds; a clearer view of which album is selected etc.16:01
* Jaffa would *really* like to see Canola, Media Player and UK MP share a database of metadata, given they all want it :)16:02
k-s[WORK]Jaffa: it's hard to achieve smooth scrolling within n800 :-( it flickers a lot16:02
konttoriJaffa: Did you try the dragging scrolling? Or what do you mean with half step scrolling?16:02
Jaffak-s[WORK]: indeed16:02
*** koen|lab is now known as koen16:03
Jaffakonttori: just used keys - half-step scrolling would mean you see half the row below the current one so it's not like a new screen, but gives an indication of stuff moving up/down.16:03
konttoriJaffa: Yeah, well, dragging achieves that. Just drag your stulus on the screen. It'll smooth scroll that way.16:04
k-s[WORK]konttori: if you want to use our db, it's at ~user/.canola/canola.db, plain SQLite16:04
konttoriI just thought that using cusor keys should always go in one line increments. I thought it would work faster that way16:04
Jaffakonttori: very weird redraw behaviour when (I think) the grid is not full16:05
*** bstock has joined #maemo16:06
Jaffakonttori: agreed, my problem is I've only got about 11 albums at the moment, the top row was unused and there was too large a visual disconnect to give any sense of where I was/what was happening.16:06
konttoriAhh... SO, you don't have enough albums and it cracks. I did not test with less than 50 albums. I'll do that today.16:06
JaffaDragging is very cool though (or will be once you've looked at poor cases like me with only a handful of albums)16:06
konttorik-s: I'll have a look at that. It would rock to use the same db.16:06
Jaffakonttori: any possibility for "momentum" on scrolling? (a la iPhone)16:07
konttoriJaffa: and it's 2X speed dragging. I tested with 1X dragging, but 2X seemed much more usefull16:07
k-s[WORK]konttori: code will be lgpl, we're waiting laywers to approve, but it was announced at bossa conference16:07
JaffaYeah, drag speed looks about right16:07
konttoriJaffa: Yeah. Although I'd first like to get it run faster. At the current speed I think momentum would suck.16:07
k-s[WORK]konttori: ah, it also talks dbus to announce start and stop of scan16:08
konttorik-s: accessing sqlite db should be ok in any case, should it not?16:08
k-s[WORK]konttori: sure16:08
*** ndepetrillo has joined #maemo16:08
k-s[WORK]konttori: but maybe you want to to know if it's scanning, to present some message (device becomes slow while processing)16:09
konttoriIn any case, scanning the MMC is so fast that it's not really needed to use the db for local files.16:09
k-s[WORK]konttori: no way16:09
k-s[WORK]konttori: there are some guys with 8Gb of mp316:09
konttoriIt takes like 5-10 secs to scan a few hundred mp3s.16:09
k-s[WORK]parsing id3 of 8gb on mmc is quite time16:10
konttorik-s: ok, true. I'll add some level of caching first and then move to sqlite db.16:10
konttoriJaffa: I'll add a better background image to emphasize the currently playing album. And add a larger font to be used in the title view.16:13
*** dazgard has left #maemo16:13
Jaffakonttori: cool16:13
konttoriJaffa: Would that cover your immediate recommendations?16:14
konttoriI don't think I can draw the artist name on much bigger font to the cd cover. Maybe a little bit bigger, but not much16:14
JaffaAlmost certainly. I'm no UI expert, unlike tigert though16:14
Jaffakonttori: yeah, that's not too bad - it's mostly the status on the right and the track listing that's the problem16:14
konttoriHmm... I might try to have a chat with tigert on the subject. Thanks for the tip16:15

danielshm, hadn't seen danielstone.org before17:39

danielsdolfun_: there were relatively minor updates from it2005 to it2006, then a huge update from it2006 to it2007 v2006.{47,51}, then a big video change in 2007.1017:39
danielsi've got a merge done with upstream internally, will be pushing that code upstream, but no real big changes otherwise17:40
dolfun_well i have to get it working for both mistral and scirroco anyway17:40

*** Pio has joined #maemo17:46
dolfun_synergy has you replace the invisible nokia cursor with a real pixmap17:47
dolfun_but there's also drawing events while battery charging17:47
dolfun_actually from what i can tell, if sdl requests fullscreen and hide_cursor, kdrive shouldn't be drawing anything else17:48

dragornocnarfidW: I'd rather make people wait for the official version than say "well, you have to reboot the device every time"20:07
dragornocnarfidW: and the stock cx1311 drivers in the n800 thrash to death switching to rfmon, so thats another piece of "fun"20:07
mgedminbill20r3: with a little software + hardware hack you can get the 770 to be a usb host20:08
ocnarfidWYea, listening to user complaints in never any fun.20:08
bill20r3mgedmin, the N800 too, or just the 770?20:08
dragornocnarfidW: I need to package up the new cx1311 module from garage, and write a script to only swap the drivers out when it's running on the current firmware, since I don't want it to go swapping them in the future and downgrading them20:08
mgedminbill20r3: 770 only20:08
bill20r3I assume the hardware hack involves wiring power to the port, or using a powered hub, or something like that?20:08
mgedminthe kernel driver only supports client mode for the usb chipset in the n80020:08
dragornocnarfidW: I'd also like to talk to dbus and turn off the wireless link in a way that the rest of the UI knows it's been turned off, rather than just ifconfiging the interface away from it20:08
dragornocnarfidW: So those are the delays in a real port.  And in newcore I have to get the menu gui to handle mouse clicks right so you can tap on the tablet20:09

lle2well, it doesn't get any better than running debian, does it?20:25
lle2(there is about three tons of sarcasm in that)20:26
keesjyou can always run emacs or gentoo20:26
tkoI wonder how difficult would it be to just stick the debian base system there20:27
keesjIt also runs on nokia http://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/jpc/Nokia.html20:27
keesjI don't know dos is still 286 and linux 386 right?20:28
lle2tko: it shouldn't be too hard, since people want support from nokia, maybe we should take up maintaining that, with instructions how to get the proprietary crap in there20:28
keesjthey must already have documented this , I can't imagine that they really want to run dos :p20:28
lle2tko: initfs probably would need to stay, and since that contains bme, umac & co, we're basically all set, right?20:29
tkolle2, I was more thinking about sticking the all free base system in there, see what's missing and then document what kind of stuff would be be needed where20:29
*** avs has quit IRC20:29
lle2so now I'm left puzzled, what the fuck are people complaining about...20:29
keesj±²In principle, we can run any OS that runs on an IBM PC, including Linux, DOS, and Windows. This includes systems for which there is no longer any available support; e.g. JPC is a safe environment in which to run legacy Windows 95 code. We are currently developing more x86 execution modes, have tested DOS and are now developing Linux compatibility.20:29
tkoand if someone prefers proprietary bits, make them available20:29
lle2tko: well, initfs is kinda like initrd, you can't easily do away with it20:30

lle2(at this point I congratulate whoever designed the battery crap)20:32
lle2but if you're using initfs anyway, you will have bme and the rest20:33
lle2and I think it's not unreasonable if nokia's supported debian system on 770 would require the bootloader, kernel and initfs to be from the official release20:34
tkobut then, if the bits in initfs take care of everything, why would we have to maintain anything?20:35

mgedminwhen I encounter a bug in closed software, I get angry, because this proprietary crap is buggy20:36
lle2we can't support the prism54 driver officially anyway, probably20:36
mgedminthat may not be entirely rational if you look at it closely...20:36
lle2mgedmin: I know what you're talking about20:36
mgedmin(but the quality of the software on the tablets is a bit appalling)20:37
*** omega_away has quit IRC20:37
lle2but a fact is that 770 is underpowered in every department, it's installed base is miniscule, it doesn't justify maintaining the full software stack, and if that's the case, I would imagine running standard debian to be not a bad choice at all. But then I also tend to have pretty up to date PCs as well20:39
lle2so maybe I don't see the reason why people would insist on using old, underpowered hw20:40
*** unique311 has quit IRC20:40
mgedminI guess one reason would be that's the only hardware they have20:41
