zbowling|n800mono beats java and python everyday of the week00:04
*** behdad has quit IRC00:08
zbowling|n800in fact python and java run on mono already making them biotches... i think its funny hearing about people getting java on maemo when we did it via mono already and we do it better because we have an arm jit and is intrupted on arm (embedded versions)00:08
zbowling|n800java is intrupted on arm00:08
zbowling|n800http://www.mono-project.com/Maemo00:10

unique311thanks00:23
unique311i want to use this app called salling clicker and their a .jar file for it...to install on the device  thats going to be use as the remote00:24
zbowling|n800funny part is we are faster then java for most things00:24
unique311not to install to run00:24
zbowling|n800ahh yah.. ikvm has a tool to convert it on your desktop first the upload the result + ikvm libs00:25

*** nhdezoito_adrian has joined #maemo00:38
*** zyxulnag1 has joined #maemo00:39
zbowling|n800using ikvm.exe it will convert on the fly, but its huge and needs lots of memory at first... ikvmc.exe converts ahead of time and generates a mono library or executable from your jar00:40
zbowling|n800use ikvmc and copy the result00:40
zbowling|n800use ikvmstub.exe against any mono/.net library and it will make a jar stub for the library you can comple against in java...00:42
mrflakeshello all, is anyone here familiar with pygame?  i am trying to figure out how to get my program to have an icon in the taskbar, as it doesn't get one automatically00:42

melmothI m playing with the hildon filechooser widget in pygtk..I can select a file, but i don not understand how to change the device so its point to a memory card15:59
melmothany idea ?15:59
Juhaz"change the device"? the location the dialog is by when it opens?16:00
melmothnot the default (not now :) )16:02
melmothby defaut i have the "n800" device16:02

pulsar_i dont know why, but the current port is fu*** slow17:06
pulsar_takes about one minute to start i.e.17:06
pulsar_and uses 100% cpu when downloading podcasts.17:07
pulsar_castget is a nice tool though17:07
pulsar_x-compiled it some time ago. actually it works pretty well.17:08
guardianbrowsing the bugzilla is depressing :( instead of getting bug fixed, you can follow the bug bouncing from one people to another: "reassigned to jp" -> "reassigned to mika" -> "reassigned back to jp" -> NO U ! :(((((17:09

tigert?17:32
* tigert looks17:33
`0660i think it's brave from nokia to handle all that in the public bugzilla :)17:33
`0660the other option would be to keep it inside the company, but that would not be so open17:33

guardiansometimes it takes time to fix bugs, so far so good. it's just a pity when the whole process is slowed down by somehow off topic quarrels17:36
*** X-Fade_ is now known as X-Fade17:36
tigertguardian: "qa claiming ownership" sounds like it gets sucked in the internal bugzilla and gets worked on17:36
tigertI know it sucks to then disappear from the outside view17:36
tigertand we try to fix that17:36
||cwXandros does that, they have the public bug tracker and an internal one.  when someone opens a bug, they validated it them open a bug on the internal that the end user can't see.  when the internal is fixed, the public is closes as well.17:36
tigertbut there's so darn many things to fix that it is not easy or fast17:37
X-Fadeguardian: This bug is actively worked on, as fas as I know..17:37
tigertguardian: this website thing is something quim is trying to fix all the time17:37
guardiani don't doubt it's actively worked on17:37
Okkowho's the Oskari they are talking about? :)17:37
guardianit's just demonstrate unprofessional handling17:37
X-FadeI'm sure Quim doesn't allow sucky/broken documentation to stay there long..17:37
guardian+s17:37
tigertits just a a lot of issues popping up all over the place17:38
guardianthe result being my little person being frustrated :D but i'm sure i'm not the only one in this case17:38
tigertbecause theres the whole lot of content that is converted first and then you see it didnt work here or there?17:38

tigertguardian: well, do you want things to be more open or not?17:39
tigertguardian: look at gnome bugzilla for example17:39
tigertstuff like this does happen there17:39
tigertits human communication. sure, it could be handled face to face maybe17:40
guardiani won't pretend i know the perfect solution17:40
tigertyeah17:41
guardianif the internal bugzilla and the public one are really synchronized i have nothing against that17:41
X-Fadeguardian: You have to understand that there are a few different parties at play here. Documention writers, website admin, internal qa, document manager,external consultants..17:41
guardiani'm tempted to believe it's a huge task to achieve17:41
tigertits just that if you have more transparency in the process, also the times when people are unhappy will show17:41
tigertX-Fade: yeah17:41
tigertthat is what makes things complicated17:41
guardiannot to mention PGP ;)17:41
tigertthere are not just the guy who writes docs, the guy who maintains the web, the guy who does testing17:42
tigertbut teams of people doing that17:42
tigerteach having their good and bad days I suppose17:42
guardiantrue17:42
X-FadeYou just can't go in and fix things directly. Somebody has to sign off on it etc etc..17:42
tigertand thus things sometimes happen that team A has a deadline and team B does not know something they should and do things that pull rug from under team A's feet17:42
tigertor something17:42
tigertits just a big mess to deal with17:42
tigertits moving ahead and we have more thinking of the community also inside etc17:43

trevarthanHmmmm... seems like if you can flash to the RAM, you should be able to pull from the RAM too using the flasher. Is that impossible?22:26
Juhazit might be possible but "you can do it the other way around" is no reason to assume that. and it's not RAM22:31

Disconnecttrevarthan: misusing terms and then getting picky with the people helping you is a good way to get them to wander off22:45
trevarthanDisconnect: he wasn't helping. Nothing he said was intended to be useful in any way.22:48
trevarthanhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_access_memory22:49
Disconnectactually, looked like he was trying to help from here. but since you've taken mindreading 101 and can speak on his intent with such authority, i'll bow to your superior whining and wander off myself..22:49
`0660:P22:50
trevarthanDisconnect: I'm just trying to get an answer to a question. Sorry to bother you.22:50
Juhazno, it's not random access memory, since it's nand flash and is limited to block addressing22:51
nomistrevarthan: I still firmly believe that Nokia installed all kinds of bells and whistles to make this basically impossible.22:51
nomistrevarthan: you probably need to use JTAG to get a dump from the flash.22:51
trevarthannomis: I believe you. I would just like to hear someone from Nokia say it. That's all I want. Something definitive.22:53
nomistrevarthan: then ask Nokia.22:53
*** behdad has joined #maemo22:53
trevarthannomis: I thought that was what I was doing. They don't have a presence here?22:53
`0660i don't think they have official presence here22:54
nomistrevarthan: there are some Nokia Employees here, but no official presence, no.22:54
`0660in other words, if you want answers here, you will have to be polite22:54
trevarthanI'd be satisfied with the word of an employee, so long as he knows what he's talking about. I'm not sure I know what "official" means.22:55
trevarthan`0660: look, I'm sorry if you all don't think I'm being polite. I thought Juhaz was taking an obvious snipe at me. I still do. I responded accordingly.22:56
`0660in this context it would mean that they would be forced to act polite to everyone22:56
* nomis sees no obvious snipe.22:56
ferulopeeeaaaace :)22:56
Juhaztigert is probably the most active nokia employee here and I doubt he knows about that either, being a GUI guy22:56
ferulotrevarthan: if this helps, I have never listened anything about RAM dumps22:57
trevarthanJuhaz: ok. I'll stop asking if no one knows. fair enough. I hope you can't blame me for persistence.22:57
Disconnectfyi many (most? and istr including the 770/800) embedded linux boxes can use the flasher to dump to/from RAM, for testing kernels or as a 2-stage flash method, etc. so - regardless of what you want to say about the definition of "access" - talking about dumping RAM is going to be confusing at best.22:58
Sulisand does anyone know if there are any hildonisations for python?22:58
feruloSulis: hildonisations?22:59
trevarthanDisconnect: I'm not sure whether you just said that "yes, you can download a flash image from an n800", or "no, you can't". Could you clarify?22:59
Sulisyep, so that you can hildonise a python gui22:59
feruloyeah Sulis you have python-hildon module23:00
Sulisexcellent23:00
Sulisthanks23:00
feruloso you can create a hildon.window and so on23:00
Sulisright23:00
Sulisi guess i should look for some documentation on this...23:00
Disconnecttrevarthan: i said "in most embedded applications, RAM and flash are not interchangable terms. especially relating to reading/writing data from the host". as far as what you can do on the nokia boxes (without soldering, presumably, and without a working OS) its pretty much limited to whatever flasher will do. so type ./flasher and see.. but if its not there, its unlikely to be possible.23:01
`0660trevarthan, i think you would already have got the answer if it was that simple23:01
feruloSulis: yup, it's on pymaemo.garage.maemo.org23:01
Sulisah, that's great, thanks23:02
trevarthan`0660: I don't know. I can't count the number of times I've asked questions for days straight before getting an answer. Persistence might be annoying, but it's useful. Sometimes the right people just aren't listening and so you can't be sure if you don't continue to ask. I am sorry for annoying everyone though. That's an unfortunate side effect.23:05
tigertJuhaz: yea, you are correct. I have no clue23:06
*** ryanfaerman has joined #maemo23:06
tigertJuhaz: I bet daniels would know, if he doesnt tell when asked, then the information is not public23:06
tigertwe do have people on the channel from Nokia, there are things we can talk about and things we can not talk about23:06
tigertthere is no mystery to it - we'll just say its something we cannot comment on23:06
trevarthantigert: is this one of those things you can't talk about?23:07

||cwtrevarthan: the linux flasher si a shell script isn't it?23:08
*** sbaturzio has joined #maemo23:08
Juhazit's not23:09
nomistrevarthan: you know, you could also use the Mailinglist. Lots of Nokians read the Mailinglist and it is more likely to get the question delivered to a knowing person.23:09
||cwhm, thought it was, not sure why i thought that23:09
nomisthat would be a better option than knowingly annoying people in here.23:09
Juhazif you're only interested in installed applications, rootfs should be all you need, and dumping that shouldn't be hard, since it's obviously mounted on the device and fully readable from userspace... "through usb" part might still not be possible, but if you have a working OS and can use memory card or network, ...23:09
*** zyxulnag1 has joined #maemo23:10
trevarthanJuhaz: that's a good point. I could always treat it like any other linux machine and use cpio to copy the file system.23:10
`0660annoying people tactic seems to work pretty good too ;)23:11
Juhazyou could probably dump even most of the rest through /dev/mtd* with a working OS, but getting it back would be another story entirely, since the flasher expects a specific format, which probably isn't a raw dump.23:11
||cwtrevarthan: http://www.nopcode.org/0xFFFF/?p=docu&q=usage23:11
trevarthan||cw: Wow. Does that do what I think it does?23:12
||cwit says it does what I think you want23:12
trevarthan||cw: I'll have to take a look at that tonight! Many thanks!23:12
tigerttrevarthan: ask daniel23:13
trevarthan`0660: I like to call it "communication". It's getting people's attention that can be difficult.23:14
tigerttrevarthan: well, since the flasher is not free software, I guess there is a reason for this23:14
tigertprobably the low level stuff is considered proprietary or such - I dunno.23:15
||cwJuhaz: right, it's a "Fiasco" package, but 0xFFFF can restore just certain pieces23:15
`0660i think there are better ways to reach goals23:15
tigertbut yeah23:15
tigertwe are not bad people23:16
`0660you could have just made a search with "flasher" on http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/maemo/developers/23:16
