IRC log of #maemo for Saturday, 2007-07-07

ttuttle_Sho_: That would have been fine.  If Nokia did, we could keep maintaining it, and perhaps even come up with a platform that covers multiple devices.00:00
suihkulokkiIt's called crapitalism00:00
ttuttle_Spec: How?  (I'm curious.)00:00
Specttuttle_: "somewhere along the way", "people got used to m$'s bullshit", "software industry seemed to exempt themselves".00:00
Specttuttle_: well, first you go to a lawyer, and ask them.00:00
suihkulokkipeople want cheapes stuff and get what they pay for00:00

ttuttle_Spec: Mind you, I'm going to college soon so I likely won't have the resources for it.00:00

Specthird: profit00:00
*** pvanhoof has quit IRC00:00
ttuttle_suihkulokki: Yes, but... if I sell you a $5000 car that stalls every 10 miles, you could sue me because it's a lemon.  Just 'cause it's cheap doesn't mean it can fail to do what it's supposed to.00:01
Specif the company doesn't provide support for a product anymore, the hardware specs should be forced open. by magic.00:01
ttuttle_Spec: Um...00:01
ttuttle_Spec: I should find some feature they advertised, and didn't implement fully or well, and complain about that.00:01
Sho_ttuttle_: Isn't this moot anyway because Nokias has actually continued to provide software with the Hacker Edition?00:01
ttuttle_Spec: I'll tell them I want a free N800 ;-)00:01
ttuttle_Sho_: No, it's not.00:01
ttuttle_Sho_: Hacker Edition is a joke.00:01
Specttuttle_: tell me if it works ^.^00:01
*** dirty_harry has joined #maemo00:02
Sho_In any case, I was perfectly able to expect as much and avoid buying an N770 and wait for the matured, second-gen N800 product00:02
ttuttle_Sho_: It works, but it's not real support.00:02
suihkulokkittuttle_: would you honestly commit yourself to maintaining a real open source edition for 770 if you had the specs?00:03
ttuttle_suihkulokki: Not entirely myself, but I'd contribute.00:03
Sho_Seems to me that time would be better spent getting a job and buying an N800 ..00:03
suihkulokki...because pretty much everything on the hardware is already accessible00:03
ttuttle_suihkulokki: What matters is that there is a horde of Maemo developers who would love to hack on the *entire* system, but can't, because Nokia won't release it.  At the same time, Nokia won't fix their own bugs.00:03
ttuttle_suihkulokki: What about those ASIC's that Nokia hasn't actually released documentation for?00:04
suihkulokkittuttle_: actually the hardware is more documented than your average PC00:05
ttuttle_suihkulokki: Good.  Where is it?00:05
suihkulokki..kernel sources00:06

egsavageQ: I have os2007-HE on a 770... Anybody ever see any issue where they can't remove files on the removable mem card?  It will not let me do it, even though I can download a file and store it on the card. BTW, this is with the file manager... It says "Operation failed".00:33
*** panthar has joined #maemo00:33
pupnikmmm no00:34
*** Dmnhunter has left #maemo00:35
egsavageI brought up an xterm and was able to remove the file with 'rm' fine though... So, it's not a permission problem it seems. Unless the userid differs from the File Manager to the shell in the xterm... hmm00:36

egsavagespeaking of MMC, I'm trying to figure out what card to buy... I guess the hardware limitation for an MMC card for a 770 is 2GB, is that correct?  I see the new OS2007 for the N800 now supports 8GB cards (but probably not RS-MMC)01:02

Charbaxtabletblog.com says it's only smooth once the video has completely downloaded04:00
CharbaxHow about playing the video in full screen, and how about video.google.com or dailymotion.com ?04:01
eugeneCharbax: well, it's choppy on any system if the network connection is slow.04:01
eugenei try video.google.com now04:02

Charbaxyou can search for something else like Al Gore or OLPC if you don't like britney hilton04:05

CharbaxOr have full sized DivX with b-frames and AC3 sound always worked in mplayer or something?04:06

eugeneCharbax: ok it;s choppy when it's downloadng04:08
eugeneCharbax: but it's fine after you got the whole video. i think that's normal04:09
*** pupnik has quit IRC04:09
*** adoyle_ has joined #maemo04:09
eugeneactually i guess it really depends on users experience04:10
eugenei find it ok, but you might have a different opinion ;)04:10
OgMacielGeneralAntilles: I have installed a Ogg Support package but the mediastreamer and canola don't seem to be using it04:11
GeneralAntillesNo idea, then.04:12
eugenecanola, i haven't try that. i am going to try now :)04:12
GeneralAntillesI wish Nokia would include 12pt themes by default.04:13
*** ChrisJTortoise has quit IRC04:15
OgMacieleugene: :)04:15
CharbaxI just wanted to know how youtube experience is compared with the Archos 605 WiFi http://www.archoslounge.net/5G-le-605-en-video.html04:16
Charbaxcause Archos plays them instantly smoothly in full screen04:16
eugeneOgMaciel: :)04:16
GeneralAntillesArchos is a media player04:17
eugene3.70mb in 10 secs :)04:17
GeneralAntillesIf you want a media player, buy an Archos04:17
GeneralAntillesPersonally, I like having a shell in my pocket wherever I go.04:17
Charbaxbut it's great if Nokia could improve it a bit, with chance one day youtube will be totally smooth04:17
CharbaxI think Nokia should include HSDPA and not be afraid to compete with their own N95 and other HSDPA phones04:17
eugeneGeneralAntilles: i like the fmplayer bit ;)04:18
Charbaxand Multimedia support should be better, also offer hard disk versions04:18
GeneralAntillesIf you want to see impressive mobile YouTube playback, get yourself an iPhone04:18
GeneralAntillesCharbax: no, and no04:18
CharbaxiPhone doesn't support Youtube04:18
GeneralAntillesHSDPA will just suck the battery down04:18
Charbaxonly re-encoded h264 youtube04:18
GeneralAntillesIt's still YouTube04:18
GeneralAntilleshard disks are still too big and too power hungry04:18
GeneralAntillesFlash is where it's at for mobile storage, anyway.04:19
Charbaxit's only a few thousand videos from youtube, flash video support is better, and there isn't only youtube with videos on the internet04:19
eugenecanola don't have chinese fonts!!!04:19
eugeneso it looks really ugly here :/04:19
GeneralAntillesLearn a real language. ;)04:19
Charbaxwell if Nokia can put HSDPA in the N95 then why not the N80004:19
GeneralAntillesBATTERY LIFE04:19
GeneralAntillesWhy put it in the Nokia, anyway?04:20
CharbaxN95 has bad battery life?04:20
GeneralAntillesI already carry around a cellphone04:20
GeneralAntillesIt has HSDPA04:20
GeneralAntillesBluetooth tether works perfectly.04:20
Charbaxpocket tablet should replace cellphones with VOIP and IM04:20
GeneralAntilles:|04:20
eugenehow do i take screenshot within canola :)04:20
Charbaxbut Nokia and carriers probably don't want that to happen04:20
GeneralAntilles_I_ don't want that to happen04:20
CharbaxSo I got to count on smaller companies like Archos to release a VOIP 605 with built-in HSDPA04:21
GeneralAntillesYou don't get HSDPA without a carrier04:21
Charbaxsmaller carriers04:21
GeneralAntillesWith the infrastructure to distribute HSDPA?04:21
CharbaxNokia is in bed with all the large ones so anything Nokia releases they got to be carefull04:21
GeneralAntillesUnlikely04:21
GeneralAntillesWhat's so hard about carrying a phone with you?04:21
CharbaxFor example N61 is different in USA04:21
CharbaxE6104:22
GeneralAntillesN800 sucks to talk on04:22
Charbaxbluetooth headset with N800 then, or basic headset04:22
GeneralAntillesThen I've got to have a bluetooth headset04:22
GeneralAntillesI don't want to carry that shit around with me everywhere I go04:22
GeneralAntillesThe device convergence idea has already been pretty solidly shot out of the water.04:23
eugenewow. canola rocks :)04:23
Charbaxalso a bluetooth watch with shortcut buttons and little display04:23
GeneralAntillesThere are a lot of times where I don't want to carry around the N800 with me04:23
GeneralAntillesSo I carry my super-slim Samsung A71704:23
GeneralAntilleseugene: Yes, it really is a great media player.04:23
*** Andy80 has quit IRC04:24
GeneralAntillesShit, why can't I install NuvoPearl?04:24
Charbaxyeah but super slim phones aren't as good for VOIP and certainly not for internet access and multimedia04:24
GeneralAntillesThe default themes are so ugly.04:24
GeneralAntillesWorks great for me04:24
GeneralAntillesHSPDA04:24
GeneralAntillesI use my N800 for browsing04:24
GeneralAntillesThe phone is for voice and data04:24
Charbaxyou can easilly use your phone as the bluetooth HSDPA modem for your N800?04:25
GeneralAntillesYes04:25
GeneralAntillesIt works perfectly04:25
Charbaxok that's cool04:25
GeneralAntillesI have it idle 10-hours a day at work04:25
GeneralAntillesFor AIM, etc.04:25
*** gomiam has quit IRC04:25
Charbaxbut I still think HSDPA should be in a N800 version04:25
GeneralAntillesand I still don't04:25
GeneralAntillesBecause it's pointless04:25
*** adoyle has quit IRC04:26
GeneralAntillesWhy add $50-$100 to the cost to decrease battery life when you can just use your phone?04:26
eugeneGeneralAntilles: yeah ;)04:26
CharbaxI asked the Nokia people at CES they told me they would but it's a carrier deal problem04:26
GeneralAntilles:\04:26
GeneralAntillesLike the people at CES _really_ know what they're talking about04:26
GeneralAntillesOr, more likely, they're just laying the blame elsewhere04:26
CharbaxYou could have a physical HSDPA switch on the side to force the HSDPA not to try and ping and use power04:27
GeneralAntillesIf we see any large-range data option in the N800, it'll be Wimax04:27
GeneralAntillesUgh04:27
CharbaxIt was the N800 product manager I interviewed at CES04:27
eugenefound a bug in canola04:27
GeneralAntillesA switch?04:27
GeneralAntillesThat'll only confuse novice users04:27
GeneralAntillesStill doesn't solve the cost issue04:27
eugenesigh04:27
Charbaxhttp://ces2007.video-blog.eu/nokia-n800/04:28
GeneralAntillesCellular radios are expensive04:28
eugeneu can choose the next song, but when u go back to the previous song, it can't find the song to play :)04:28
*** soothsayer has joined #maemo04:28
CharbaxWiMax would be cool, but HSDPA is available now04:28
Charbaxhere in Denmark we get 10GB on HSDPA for 30€ per month04:28
Charbax30 euros04:28
eugeneis there an equalizer ?04:28
GeneralAntillesBy the time we get to the next hardware refresh, Wimax will be gaining ground.04:29
CharbaxI hope so, but it's been a couple of years I've heard people at conferences say that Mobile WiMax would come soon04:29
GeneralAntillesIt can't possibly be going into the next hardware refresh, because stuff like that takes time to test and develop04:29
GeneralAntillesRADIOS are expensive04:29
GeneralAntillesI've said nothing of plans.04:29
GeneralAntillesIt'd suck having to buy separate plans for both my N800 and my phone.04:30
CharbaxNokia has the ressources to do HSDPA in N800 type device. If they don't it's purely cause they are a little bit evil, or because the telcos told Nokia not to04:30
GeneralAntillesNo, it's because it's a stupid idea.04:30
CharbaxNokia is like one of the largest companies in the world, so it's not a problem of ressources04:30
GeneralAntillesLarge or not, it doesn't make scare resources cost less.04:31
GeneralAntilles3g radios are scare resources04:31
CharbaxThey can have a version with HSDPA and a version without, Just as they got a E61 with WiFi and another without Wifi04:31
GeneralAntilles*scarce 2x04:31
GeneralAntillesEconomies of scale are already weak on a device like the N80004:31
GeneralAntillesYou want to divide the production in half and make it worse?04:31
GeneralAntillesI _can_ afford a $300-40004:32
CharbaxNokia is investing everything in making phones into pocket computers04:32
GeneralAntillesI CANNOT afford a $500-$700 device04:32
CharbaxSo N800 type technology is a big thing for future of Nokia04:32
GeneralAntillesI can't believe I have to stick with this crappy built-in theme04:33
GeneralAntillesWhat could they possibly have changed to break the theme framework04:33
CharbaxThey could market an iPhone killer that is a N800 with free VOIP calling on Skype, SIP, Gtalk and such. No voice and SMS plans everything over wireless broadband. That would kill iPhone04:33
GeneralAntillesHa04:33
GeneralAntillesBullshit04:33
*** jacques_ has joined #maemo04:33
GeneralAntillesAnything marketed as an iPhone killer is doomed to die itself.04:34
GeneralAntillesHave you used an iPhone?04:34
GeneralAntillesApple has really dropped a bombshell on the cellular market04:34
GeneralAntillesThere's a lot to be said for multitouch04:34
Charbaxnope but I cannot see the iPhone as anything revolutionary, on the opposite04:34
GeneralAntillesThe interface is lightyears ahead of anything else on the market04:34
CharbaxiPhone is a flashy interface made to suck money out of people on outdated technology and walled gardens04:34
GeneralAntillesYou can't possibly understand until you've used it.04:34
GeneralAntillesWho cares about the hardware04:35
GeneralAntillesHardware prices will go down and technology will go up as soon as we hit the next generation04:35
GeneralAntillesThe interface is where it's at.04:35
Charbaxthe iPhone touchscreen isn't as good as people are made to think04:35
GeneralAntillesIt's so much easier to use than any other cellular device I've ever laid hands on.04:35
GeneralAntillesI HAVE one04:35
GeneralAntillesIt's AWESOME04:35
CharbaxI've seen people having trouble clicking on things and scrolling with the iPhone04:35
GeneralAntillesI had trouble at first because I tried to use it like the N800 touchscreen, with my fingernail04:36
GeneralAntilles--doesn't work well04:36
Charbaxyou have an iPhone?04:36
GeneralAntillesBut when you use it full-fingered the magic happens04:36
GeneralAntillesYes04:36
GeneralAntillesWell, it's in the family04:36
GeneralAntillesIt's my mother's phone04:36
Charbax2000 dollar phone isn't it04:36
eugenecanola doesn't integrate with the fm player :/04:36
ericz_try 50004:37
GeneralAntillesWhat's with all the iPhone hate, anyway?04:37
Charbaxtransitions and smooth scrolling that makes an interface lightyears ahead?04:37
GeneralAntillesMore competition in the cellular market can only be a GOOD THING for us as consumers.04:38
GeneralAntilles. . .04:38
CharbaxWhat if those menu transitions/animations weren't the best actual way to do better usabillity on pocket device?04:38
GeneralAntillesMultitouch04:38
Charbaxmultitouch is really that usefull?04:38
GeneralAntillesMenu transitions have nothing to do with it.04:38
GeneralAntillesHave you used one?04:38
GeneralAntillesNo.04:38
CharbaxI think normal interface would be more usable for zooming than multitouch04:39
GeneralAntillesIt's so much more fluid04:39
Charbaxno I'm in Denmark, we don't go mad over Apple products over here04:39
GeneralAntillesTap on the phone icon, finger scroll to a contact, tap send04:39
GeneralAntillesincredibly fluid04:39
GeneralAntillesnothing like the jerky finger scrolling on the N80004:40
Charbaxfluid hmm.. really well I haven't tried it so I don't know for sure. But from what I see the iPhone interface is just a bunch of animations and flashy transitions04:40
GeneralAntilles"see"04:40
GeneralAntillesThat's the problem04:40
GeneralAntillesYou haven't used it04:40
GeneralAntillesso you have no basis with which to form an opinion04:40
GeneralAntilleswait until you get to use one04:40
GeneralAntillessoftbuttons and d-pads are a thing of the past04:41
GeneralAntillesActually, the one really cool thing that Nokia could fairly easily pull from the iPhone is inertia scrolling04:41
Charbaxso yeah Apple might have got a new type of multitouch touchscreen out of their billion dollar R&D, but that's not in my opinion in itself able to revolutionize the technology04:41
GeneralAntillesIf I flick a page on the iPhone, the page will behave as if it has inertia and continue to scroll for a little while.04:41
Charbaxhardware scroll buttons on the side of the touch-screen probably is more productive than the apple touchscreen effects04:42
GeneralAntillesImagine being able to scroll through dozen-page websites on the N800 with a single flick?04:42
ericz_iPhones only AT&T (for now), right?04:42
GeneralAntillesAgain, you haven't used it. (I hate to keep bringing this up, but it's particularly relavent in the case of an interface)04:42
Charbaxwell I have seen people say that browsing isn't that smooth even using WiFi on the iPhone04:42

GeneralAntillesericz_, yes AT&T for now04:43
GeneralAntillesericz_, wait until the next hardware revision.04:43
GeneralAntillesGoogle maps aren't any slower than in a regular browser04:43
GeneralAntillesMultitouch really shines there.04:44
ericz_really waiting for a price drop :P04:44
GeneralAntillesThe competition'll kick in whenever the next revision comes out04:44
GeneralAntillesMore carriers will have it04:44
GeneralAntillesso they'll have incentive to give price breaks04:44

Charbaxatt has 5 year exclusivity, price won't drop04:44
GeneralAntillesCharbax, it seems like you take issue with people that think the iPhone is a gift from god, and you have a dislike of Apple in general more than anything really concrete with the device itself.04:46
GeneralAntillesDo they now?04:46
Charbaxa basic zooming scaler probably works better than multitouch.. it's just a WOW effect but better usabillity is not achieved by it04:46
GeneralAntillesSo you keep saying04:46
GeneralAntillesBut can you pan around like you can with the iPhone?04:46
GeneralAntillesNo.04:46
Charbaxpanning around works on N800 and Archos doesn't it04:47
GeneralAntillesNot while zooming04:47
GeneralAntillesFluidity04:47
GeneralAntillesThat's what shines on the iPhone04:47
*** jacques has quit IRC04:47
GeneralAntillesIt's not a goddamn chore to get to everything like on most cellphones (and the N800 at times, though I do love it so ;)).04:47
Charbaxhardware buttons next to the screen would provide better usabillity for zooming I think04:47
GeneralAntillesHypothetical04:48
Charbaxwell the Archos 605 WiFi is out next week over here in Europe so I'll be able to test that04:48
CharbaxI'm sure browsing experience with full Javascripts and full Flash support on a 800x480 4" screen is a better browsing experience than on the iPhone04:49
GeneralAntillesI agree04:49
GeneralAntillesiPhone is no N800 competition04:49
GeneralAntillesThere is no such thing as N800 competition right now.04:49
*** jacques_ is now known as jacques04:50
GeneralAntillesUnless Nokia plans on doing something drastic, I will buy (and have bought) every hardware revision of the IT line that comes out.04:50
CharbaxI'm looking forward to the N900 WiFi+HSDPA+WiMax VOIP with 160GB hdd04:51
Charbaxand full DivX playback/recording04:51
CharbaxIf Nokia don't do it then Archos will04:51
GeneralAntilles160GB?04:51
GeneralAntillesNot happening04:52
GeneralAntillesFlash tech is getting better everyday04:52
CharbaxArchos 605 is up to 160GB04:52
GeneralAntillesIt's also thick as hell04:52
Charbaxbut HDD provides 10x the capacity for the same price as flash04:52
GeneralAntillesNot in the next few years04:52
GeneralAntillesHD development is creeping to a hault04:52
Charbaxand a 1.8" HDD is not taking up much space and weight04:52
GeneralAntillesFlash is just beginning to take off.04:52
GeneralAntillesBattery power04:52
GeneralAntillesagain04:53
CharbaxArchos supports HD resolution video, up to 720p, so multimedia files are getting bigger04:53
*** tchan has quit IRC04:53
GeneralAntillesHas anybody else been successful in getting any of the NuvoThemes to install?04:53
Charbaxalso there are HD camcorders now, you need HDD to store those videos04:53
GeneralAntillesWhat's the resolution of the Archos?04:53

Charbax1280x72004:54
*** pdz- has joined #maemo04:54

Charbaxyup04:54
Charbaxplayback and 640x480 encoding still04:54
GeneralAntillesBullshit04:54
CharbaxIt's true hehe04:54
GeneralAntillesDisplay: High resolution screen, 800x480 pixels, 4.3'' TFT LCD, 16 million colors04:54
GeneralAntillesTouch screen04:54
GeneralAntillesRight from Archos website04:54
Charbaxhttp://cebitvideo.com/images/IMG_0354-sm-comp.JPG04:55
GeneralAntillesLCD resolution04:55
Charbaxyup I'm talking about video playback resolution04:55
GeneralAntillesNot video playback04:55
CharbaxIt's got Component and HDMI output with the correct docking accessories04:55
GeneralAntillesThere's no advantage to playing downsampling videos04:55
GeneralAntillesIt's a media device04:55
Charbaxyup output to a HDTV at your friends place04:56
GeneralAntillesAll their processing power is dedicated to being able to play video04:56
GeneralAntillesDoesn't fullfil my needs for an SSH tunnel and a webbrowser04:56
Charbaxdownsampling is very important feature, you can then watch all the HD content without re-encoding a portable version04:56
CharbaxArchos is using Texas Instruments just like Nokia in the N80004:56
Charbaxdifference is Archos TI chip is more powerfull DSP04:57
GeneralAntillesWhen is Nokia gonna get the hell of their collective asses and release some drivers for the PowerVR04:57
GeneralAntillesThat would work wonders for the N80004:57
Charbaxwhat is PowerVR?04:57
GeneralAntillesThe 3d accelerator on the TI chip in the N80004:58
GeneralAntillesSame as in the Dell Axims04:58
GeneralAntillesWe could conceivably run Quake 3 with that chip.04:58
CharbaxTI makes the best chips, on the N900 Nokia should use one chip like in the Archos with a better multimedia inpout/output support04:58
CharbaxLinux apps wouldn't need to suffer from it04:59
Charbaxcause TI is a dual-core ARM and DSP in one04:59

srihi there..08:33
sriso, I'm trying to get my N800 reflashed because it seems to have this problem of constantly rebooting.08:34
sriI was here a couple of weeks ago and someone gave me some advice about reflashing it.08:34
sribut I can't seem to even get usb connection to it.08:34
sriany suggestions?08:34
xruxawhat does it say? Using Windows flasher or linux?08:35
srilinux flasher.08:35
xruxaso what does it say? ;)08:35
sriactually, let me look at the docs again..08:35
thoughtfix1: Charge it up. 2: Power it off. 3: Unplug the charger. 4: Plug it in via USB. 5: Hold down HOME while powering it back up and there will be a USB symbol in the top right on the Nokia flash page.08:35
thoughtfixThen run your flasher.08:35
thoughtfixIn that order08:35
srithoughtfix: thanks.08:35
srixruxa: it doesn't say anything because I'm doing it wrong :)08:35
xruxaits ok to run the flasher first, it will be waiting for the device, then reboot the device and in bootstrap it connects. Just make sure you run flasher as ROOT08:36
eugenexruxa: yeah, or you waste another few more minutes :)08:38
sriso one thing isthat I can' tturn it off.08:38
sriI've tried ot drain the sucker, but I just can't seem to do it.08:38
xruxawith the linux flasher you don't need to turn it off, if its rebooting while the flasher is waiting for the device it should connect08:40
thoughtfixRemove the battery?08:40
sriyou know I looked everywhere and there are no proper instructions on how to remove that battery correctly.  It feels really scary to pry it oiut.08:40
thoughtfixWait ... on the N800?08:41
srixruxa: yes08:41
xruxacover off, then slap it against your palm. Do not try your nails ;)08:41
eugenesri: i know how that feels :)08:41
srixruxa: hehe.. okayh, I'll try that. ;)08:42

Tu13esskype pro is only free for landlines :(18:29
gomiamI already have a bit of money in Skype, but that's just because my mother uses it to call to Brasil18:29
gomiamIf I were to use something right now I would try to go through VoIPBuster18:30
Tu13esI'd have to talk for 23 hours on Skype for the unlimited calling thing to be worth it18:30
gomiam(not that there is a Maemo client, though)18:30
gomiam23 hours?18:30
gomiammmm....18:30
gomiamI guess my mother could run that up quite quickly :-D18:31

gomiamlet me check just in case18:36
unique311try to find a linux version of it with the source....and compile18:36
* rwhitby uses gizmo simply due to the skype EULA which states that Skype can use *your* computer to route *other* people's calls.18:36
unique311found one....but requires java18:36
danilo__Yes... I found one... TEG...18:36
gomiamrwhitby: and that term is a problem... why?18:36
danilo__with the sources...18:37
hrhrhow about skype for n800?18:37
unique311http://linux.softpedia.com/get/GAMES-ENTERTAINMENT/TBS/Risk-4922.shtml18:37
Jaffarwhitby: that's entirely the point of Skype: it's a P2P protocol.18:37
unique311http://www.penguin-soft.com/penguin/man/6/risk.html18:38
JaffaThat's how it can easily bypass firewalls/NAT etc. by using others' systems which are in the clear as a bridge.18:38
danilo__unique311, I found a version named "Teg". but the compilation process was not successful18:38
unique311keep at it...18:38
unique311with every error...google a solution18:38
rwhitbygomiam: cause I pay for my bandwidth18:39
unique311was the failure due to dependencies? danilo__18:39
rwhitbyJaffa: a proprietary P2P protocol at that ...18:39
Jaffarwhitby: indeed18:39
danilo__unique311, Yes, I know.... lol....18:39
gomiamrwhitby: so you want to have good connection and quality service, but not to help others get the same18:40
gomiamI hope you don't use Bittorrent or eMule18:40
gomiambecause it's the same18:40
rwhitbygomiam: actually, I don't.18:40
gomiamanyway, if you like it that way, it's your choice18:40
rwhitbybut I'm not forcing that choice on anyone else.18:40
unique311danilo__, so what were the failures from , dependencies?18:40
danilo__unique311, I dont remember. But I think it was....18:40
rwhitby(i.e. I didn't say that anyone else shouldn't use skype, I just educated those people who may not have read the EULA closely)18:41
danilo__I'm  not on my machine now, but I will test it again later.18:41
gomiamThe N800 has Java support right?18:42
danilo__rwhitby, Some problems with Skype's EULA?18:42
gomiam(I just never thought about it until now)18:42
unique311wonder whats the stats on users actually reading the EULA before installing and  using an app18:42
danilo__gomiam, I think not...18:42
gomiamdanilo__: he doesn't like P2P18:42
gomiamso he won't use it.18:43
unique311guilty of not doing so....18:43
rwhitbygomiam: P2P is fine when it is a conscious choice.18:43
danilo__gomiam, and why it is a problem?18:43
gomiamrwhitby: erm... and where exactly does Skype not tell you it is a P2P application?18:43
gomiambecause I knew from day one18:43
rwhitbyit's the proprietary nature of the protocol, which means zero interoperability, which is my real problem with skype18:43
rwhitbygomiam: not doubting you - you seem to be very well informed.18:44
gomiamoh, but the Skype protocol has already been rev-eng'd18:44
rwhitbygomiam: yes, but they can change it whenever they want18:44
gomiamno, they actually would have quite a problem18:44
gomiamit's not so easy to update the whole infrastructure18:45
gomiamanyway, there's always OpenWengo18:45
gomiamif Skype gets too obnoxious18:45
gomiam:-)18:45
rwhitbysure they can, over time.  each skype client updates itself.  it has full control over your computer, remember (that's in the EULA)18:45
danilo__gomiam, OpenWengo works fine on N800?18:45
*** gnuite has joined #maemo18:46
rwhitbyyeah, an open source SIP client is better than Gizmo anyway (Gizmo is closed source)18:46
gomiamdanilo__: I don't know whether it is ported yet18:46

Jaffaeugene: weird18:47

rwhitbygomiam: the interesting thing is that I did a side-by-side comparison of skype and gizmo from Australia to the USA (both clients on the same n800 and PC at each end), and gizmo had the better sound clarity.18:49
rwhitbygo figure.18:49
danilo__Tu13es, I'd never used it before. But now, with skype, things are little differences..18:49
Tu13esgizmo definitely sounds louder from what i just tried18:49

eugenegomiam: do you still have the backup url you gave me last night?18:50
rwhitbygomiam: dunno whether it's skype in general, whether it's skype over trans-pacific links, or whether it's just skype on the n800 at fault18:50
gomiameugene: which one?18:50
Tu13eswhich forced me to cancel my area775 number18:50

milhousekeesj - try calling neil-macleod, i don't have skype running19:36
`0660shit, it does not reconnect automatically if the device has been disconnect from the network19:37
milhousekeesj - nothing listed in Control Panel -> Navigation19:38
milhousemaybe they're using the Presence status bar icon (would make sense to use it)19:38
keesjmilhouse: guess what you are not online :p19:38
milhousedamn19:38
milhousethat's so crap19:38
keesjskype has always been like that19:38
milhousemaybe integration will follow in a future update19:38
milhouseat least Google Talk is integrated19:39
`0660hmm, now it did do that. this is confusing :)19:39
keesjperhaps a nice media project to work on ? http://wiki.linuxmce.com/index.php/Screenshots19:39
milhouseThe "Accounts" section should include Skype and allow you to add your skype email addy19:40
JaffaHmm. Restoring settings from backup (first time I've ever done that) has nicely restored my network connections, forgotten my BT devices and seriously mucked up the theming.19:40
milhousethis would then work with the Presence icon19:40
JaffaUnfortunately, switching from one theme to another doesn't fix it.19:40
keesjmilhouse: I don't think it should all be integrated19:40
pupnikSomebody make DrPocketSNES work on Nokia. :)  Needs some filehandling work, and a framebuffer or SDL output.19:40
milhouseI'd rather have one Presence icon than two19:40
milhouseand one way of doing something, than two different ways19:41
milhouse"integration" to me means that Skype should be able to extend existing functionality19:41
milhouseand the same goes for Gizmo etc.19:41
milhouseOne Accounts management dialog, one Presence dialog etc.19:41
milhouse3 different voip apps :)19:42

gomiamhow many repositories do you have, rgriffit?20:06
gomiamin my case, it had something to do with having too many installable applications20:07
