Vertoolol. thats what they have the community for. we do it all for free04:55
*** phil|work is now known as philipl05:00

GeneralAntillesAnybody tell me how to show the cursor on the N800 for use with Synergy?05:22
GeneralAntillesScript on the garage doesn't seem to work.05:22
megabyte405Vertoo: np - if you find problems with the instructions, let me know - that's my web site05:23
*** matt_c has quit IRC05:23
GeneralAntillesNevermind, fixed it. Thanks guys! :P05:26
*** else58 has joined #maemo05:31
Luriahas there been any progress on the BT mouse front?05:32
Vertoomegabyte405: i dont need to sync anything, and im sure many others don't either. also have red pill set up and all, so a one click install at the top would be nice. from one devesigner to another, a button at the top, maybe a nice gel effect with mouse over effect. green with white would look good05:32
megabyte405:D05:32
megabyte405The point of the page really is to get syncing05:32
megabyte405I suppose I could link more directly to the one-click install files05:32
megabyte405you don't need red pill for them05:32
Vertooya, cause just skimming through there i couldn't find a one click. and dont really have time to read the whole thing lol05:33
Luriaguess not :-/05:34
megabyte405Luria: never tried05:35
megabyte405there, now I put the link in the install gpe section in addition to the "what you need" section, for those low on attention or patience :D05:35
Vertoobesides that, you will find that people are as lazy as they can be. most wont get the most out of their nokias cause they dont wanna go through the trouble of finding apps and all. its a shame05:36
*** eichi has quit IRC05:37
Vertoois this your first website? or have you been developing for a while?05:42
*** rhsanborn has joined #maemo05:42
Vertoomegabyte405: ^05:43
megabyte405Vertoo: I've been developing for a while, but I didn't put a lot of effort into this because I needed to bootstrap it quick for Google Summer of Code05:43
megabyte405so it is certainly not my best work05:43
megabyte405I know it's a little wordy - but I wanted to get enough keywords in there so anybody searching would find the stuff - before I made that page, there was no N800 GPE sync instructions online05:44
Vertoogotcha. may i suggest something?05:45
megabyte405sure05:45
megabyte405but do keep in mind, this is not my masterpiece - it's a working document05:45
Vertoosince your target audience will likely read that on their nokia, a simple anchor navigation would improve it alot, i a. browsing on mine, and still cant find that one click install just by browsing through it.05:46
pupnikGeneralAntilles: did you find the answer yet?05:47
megabyte405nokia is not my target market for the site05:47
megabyte405it's my personal web site/document storage - I just happened to write a page useful for nokia folks05:47
GeneralAntillesYes, it's working. Thanks.05:47
Vertooi understand the document style site, which is why navigation is essential.05:47
megabyte405I should add internal anchor navs to the site engine, though, that would be useful05:47
pupniki didn't know there is a script.  How did you get it working?  I would like an easy way to enable the cursor *only* when synergy is running05:48
pupnikbecause cursor breaks xsp pixel doubling when you touch the screen05:48
Vertooi didn't look at the site, just the page.05:48
* megabyte405 is using a mildly-to-heavily hacked up wiki engine05:48
* megabyte405 adds internal navs to the RFE list05:48
rhsanbornIs there a doc somewhere that explains the basic methods to compile software using the sk? (using indt image)05:48
megabyte405rhsanborn: same way you would on linux05:49
GeneralAntillespupnik, it can only be changed back and forth after a reboot, so I don't see any way to have it change only with Synergy activation.05:49
rhsanbornmegabyte405: great, thanks05:49
megabyte405easiest thing to do is to get debian source packages and do dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot inside of them05:49
Vertooexcuse me if i sound pretentious or come off rude. i have been designing for a few years, mostly personal stuff, but i have always appreciated others input05:49
*** _Monkey has quit IRC05:49
pupnikGeneralAntilles: so much to do, so little time05:50
GeneralAntillesHehe05:50
megabyte405Vertoo: no, that's a good point05:51
megabyte405It would be relatively easy for me to add an automatic anchor at each heading05:51
megabyte405the harder part is coming up with a sane way to refer to it, but that's not too bad05:52
megabyte405I generally keep pages small enough that I don't need anchors, but it probably helps search engine stuff too, I bet05:52
Vertooya it does, plus when people can jump the page to exactly where they need to go they like it more.05:54
pupnikGeneralAntilles: you know about the hack to prevent the enter key from bringing-up the onscreen keyboard in synergy?05:59
*** vmarks has joined #maemo05:59
GeneralAntillesNope, what is it?06:01
pupnikmaemo-gtk-im-switch xim06:01
pupniki haven't found how to switch it back06:02
megabyte405pupnik: presumably you need to find out the input method name for the virtual keyboard, to replace "xim" (X Input Method) with the appropriate hildon one06:03
megabyte405does that help any?06:03
pupnikhttp://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto_setupkeyboard/06:04

megabyte405pupnik: right06:10
megabyte405you can only have one active input method at a time06:10
Luriaspeaking of input, is there a transparency hack for the keyboard?06:10
*** ryanfaerman has joined #maemo06:11
GeneralAntillesThat would be SWEET06:12
Luriahmmmm my n800 is somehow connecting to a wep encrypted ap06:12
megabyte405Luria: without the key?  If it's "open system" it will connect but not get anywhere06:13
megabyte405and will probably report that it has a "link-local IP address"06:13
Luriano, nevermind06:13
Luriatwo with the same ssid06:13
pupnikif anyone's looking for a project, we could use a generic X keyboard that could be popped-up manually and generate x keyboard events... e.g. xvkbd06:14

CountDownHas anyone successfully used libusb on the N800 in USB host mode?06:51
CountDownIt worked fine on the 770, but I get a "file not found" sort of error on the N800.06:52
*** vertoo_ has joined #maemo06:53
XarkCountDown: Hello.  How are you connecting the USB device to the N800?  The "hub" method, or do you have a special cable?06:55
CountDownXark: I've hacked up a special cable that provides 5V from a 9V battery.06:56
*** rhsanborn has left #maemo06:56
CountDownXark: It's the same set up I used on the 770.06:56
CountDownI've also enabled USB host mode through the flasher-3.0 program, just like on the 770.06:57
vertoo_Noob question, why do you need any V there at all? Isn't it just a usb to an already powered device?06:57
CountDownvertoo_: Most USB devices expect to be powered from the USB host.06:58
XarkCountDown: Hmm.  Have you read that the flasher option works on the N800 (or is that what you are experimenting for)?06:58
CountDownXark: I thought I saw that somewhere.  Maybe I should double check.  :)06:59
XarkCountDown: You are trying to access a USB flash drive?06:59
XarkCountDown: Since I have read that the USB hardware is different, it seems likely that there might need to be a driver/kernel change.06:59
CountDownXark: I'm trying to access a custom microcontroller device.06:59
CountDownXark: What's the latest version of the flasher?07:00
XarkCountDown: Neat.07:00
CountDownvertoo_: Also, if the host isn't powered, some kernels won't connect to devices unless they detect power on the USB port.07:00
vertoo_CountDown: I see, I've had problems with a few usb ports (esp on the front of cases with 6+ comming from factory) this is a nice work around for something like that where they can't support the power?07:00
CountDownXark: It was neat, until it stopped working!  :)07:01
XarkCountDown: The flasher you are using is the Nokia official one?  If so, 3.0 appears to be the latest.07:01
CountDownvertoo_: Could be a work around for that, yes.07:02
CountDownXark: Hmmm... the other differences are the versions of the software.07:02
CountDownOops, have to run.  I'll be back later.07:02
* Xark used "init_flasher3.1" (IIRC) for the MMC boot mod. That one appears to be a bit different (and non-official).07:03
XarkCountDown: OK, Take it easy.07:03

vertoo_anyone got a good windows XP/Mac OS X solution for streaming media over the internet to be accessed like a internet radio station?07:46
GeneralAntillesQuicktime Streaming Server07:47
GeneralAntillesIf you can get your hands on it.07:47
vertoo_I have a domain pointing at my ip address and a slim server set up on there, but it didn't work07:47
GeneralAntillesNot sure of anything free, though.07:47
vertoo_And the quicktime solution didn't fare well either07:47
vertoo_The quicktime thing I found tried to stream through my mic07:47
vertoo_which is pretty dumb07:47
vertoo_it didn't have an option to stream files07:48
vertoo_it seems that anti-piracy laws make this feet much more difficult07:48
pupnikRe: SNES and speed: Transparency doesn't suck up all the speed, drawing all the background layers so it can find out what to make transparent does. Therefore, it can almost double the work of the gfx engine before it even gets to the "transparency" part (as the snes works by taking background layers and using a color subtraction or addition technique).  -Squidge07:49

CountDownSo, according to http://www.muru.com/linux/n800-usb-host/ it is possible to use the N800 in USB host mode, but it requires a kernel patch.  Has anyone successfully tried this?09:59
CountDownAlso, there is mention of the N800 USB chipset providing up to 100mA at 5V.  This would be a big improvement.  Has anyone verified this?10:00

CountDownXark: Have you had any luck recompiling the kernel using the GCC toolchain on the N800?10:05
*** ab has joined #maemo10:06
*** philipl is now known as phil|sleep10:07
XarkCoutDown: I haven't tried recompiling the kernel yet.  Haven't really felt a need so far.10:09
CountDownXark: I'll probably be feeling the need real soon, but I might set up the scratchbox dev environment instead.10:11
XarkCountDown: One thing I have found is that my unit isn't 100% reliable.  I notice that some of the Internal compiler errors I was experiencing are intermittant (I can try "make" again and it will work).  So I suspect either hardware problems or some kind of software corruption.10:11
XarkCountDown: I am wondering if you have seen any "flakey" behavior like that.10:12
XarkCountDown: Since I had similar problems when running from jffs, I don't suspect my MMC fs as the cause.10:12
XarkCountDown: What features are you missing in the stock kernel?10:13
XarkCountDown: USB stuff?10:13
CountDownXark: I haven't noticed anything flakey, but I only needed GCC to compile a single library and probably won't be using it again soon.10:15
*** ab has quit IRC10:15
CountDownXark: I need to add a patch to the stock kernel so that USB host mode can be enabled.10:16
CountDownWhat I was hoping to be a one day effort looks like it will take closer to a week.10:16
XarkCountDown: Yeah, I haven't really noticed much else but gcc "randomly" die (not to say I haven't seen apps crash...).10:16
VeggenHmm. USB host mode on N800 is sort of interesting. I'd like to use it as a field upload device for my camera.10:18
XarkCountDown: You are trying to get your N800 to where you already had your N770 (with respect to your device)?10:18

VeggenThey should also - at least as an add-on - provide a hub/cables that actually provided the N800s port with power.10:20

pupnikheh.  if the core is 2x as fast as the 2420, i'm sold13:05

pupnikright13:06

lardmanah, DMIPS isn't == dhrystones/1e613:10
pupnikhrm.  'd'=dishonest, deceptive... :/13:10
pupnikoh13:10
lardmanhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhrystone, see the Results sectioon13:10
lardmanStrange wording there. Why just divide by an arbitrary number, surely they mean that the dhystone loops/s has to be divided by mips on the device in question13:12
lardmanah, perhaps one just multiplies the mips value by the arbitrary number and doesn't need to run dhrystone?13:13
sp3000lardman: you'd divide by an arbitrary factor to scale the dhrys to a kind of mips scale where it coincides at the 1mips machine mentioned13:14
lardmansp3000: But you gain little by doing it, other than normalising the data13:15
lardmansp3000: and it wouldn't work where mips are not proportional to dhrystone loops/s13:15

sp3000taht just means your definition of work differs from that indended by the scaling13:16
pupnikwhat do you think the chances are that there will be an n800 successor?  and will it use omap3?13:16
lardmanIf we go by the numbers in the article, it appears it will be ~10x faster13:17
pupnikif it's 2x faster, it means dumb people like me will be able to port over a lot more games and emus13:18
* pupnik points to snes9x at 4-8 fps on the 770 without sound.13:18
gla55_though, if the 10x faster speeds are for over ghz13:18
lardmanwell if you divide my loops/s (200,000) by the DMIPS adjustment factor (1757) you get 113.8304 DMIPS13:20
lardmanSo it's in the right ball park, but a bit slower than the numbers given13:20

JaffaHmm, Chinook beta announced. "Break N800 compatibility". That doesn't sound entirely good.16:03
disqssh (or openssh?)16:03
Komarovit's a client16:03
disqit also installs the server16:03
JaffaAh, no, I misparsed. Chinook is "fully supported by the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet hardware". as is Diablo16:04
disqyes i was just reading that16:04

X-Fadetimeless: Just check the maemo website on your pc and on the N800. You will see gray lines at places you don't see them on your pc..17:52
lardman|afkbedboi: You can do ethernet over usb17:52

X-Fadetimeless: also notice the rendering bug at the right bottom of the secondary navigation 'Documentation Tutorials Roadmap'17:53
lardman|afkbedboi: You need to insmod the kernel module17:53
trevarthandisq: when I started kagu, I had three goals in mind: 1.) Make a GUI for A2DP support  2.) Play with my iphone like intertial scroll widget idea   3.) create a player that handles audio books well for maemo.17:53
* Jaffa 's decided he'd love to be able to drag scroll any scrollable widget in its content area, and just use the scrollbar as a positional indicator. Preferably with a configurable (in Control Panel) amount of inertia too.17:53
trevarthandisq: I've accomplished #1. I'm very close to finishing #3, and #2 will follow shortly. :)17:54
jsmanriquewould "maemo-browser" work in a 770 device?17:54
lardman|afkbedboi: ignore my flasher comment, just modprobe/insmod the module. Got my wires crossed17:54
* timeless looks back17:55
trevarthandisq: unfortunately, for #2 I needed pygame. So that object structure is very pygame dependent with update loops and such. You don't need those with GTK. GTK is more callback based, I think.17:55
disqtrevarthan: with multiple ui's, after finishing with pygame you could try evas for instance. would need a configurator that lets the user choose ui-type and ui-theme.17:55
timelessoh, you mean you don't make maemo look special for mobile devices?17:55

X-Fadetimeless: Hehe, yeah GForge is a bit.... different :)18:06
trevarthandisq: I think in order to make that a reality I would have to abstract my pygame widgets even further until they had a completely gtk-like API. Having never worked with gtk in any real capacity, I simply don't have the experience to do that. I'm not qualified. The idea sounds great, but I just can't conceive of how to do it.18:07

disqtrevarthan: also, are you sure about the volumeview? it looks weird to me, also probably slow18:23
timelessi don't have to scroll from right to left18:24
disqtrevarthan: it's a server-client based media player model. the server has the files and the sound output, the clients connect and manage the playlist/volume18:24

timelessbecause the built in pdf reader is *stupid*18:24

timelessyou can also do /usr/bin/browser --engine=opera18:46
trevarthandisq: what do you think about the scrolling text?18:46
disqtrevarthan: maybe nokia should leave the current sucky media player as is, leave it to developers and focus on the platform. it's good and all but we all know how much time they're going to lose if they implement all that changes we (mostly I) suggested in the bugzilla. metacrawler still sucks after two updates, i have it disabled. dives into my sardine partition and never comes back18:46
timelessdisq: last i checked the latest internal version of metacrawler doesn't reread files starting from each byte offset :)18:47
timeless(shipping versions did)_18:47
X-Fadetimeless: Doesn't work either. Something keeps overwriting that file with it's default settings..18:47
disqtrevarthan: it might need padding (1 or 2px) at both sides. maybe give it a little sinus wave? leave the track number unscrolling?18:47
timelessx-fade: is the browser running?18:47
trevarthandisq: yeah, I don't understand why they don't focus on the OS API and just package OSS apps like pidgin as the default chat client.18:48

trevarthandisq: ok, padding. I'll do that. Track number. I'll do that too. What do you mean by sine wave?18:48
disqtrevarthan: make it scroll slow to fast to slow, or fast to slow to fast.18:49
X-Fadetimeless: So I changed the file, closed the browser :)18:49
timelessx-fade: :)18:49

trevarthandisq: what's the purpose of that? allow slow people to read, but allow impatient people to read fast too?18:50
disqtrevarthan: erm. no, when it's selected like now. instead of scrolling at a constant speed, start slow, get faster in the middle, etc. it might not be noticable on short song titles though18:50
disqeye candy18:50
X-Fadetimeless: Now I can see that the microb engine has causes a few rendering problems that opera doesn't have..18:50
trevarthandisq: ah. that's interesting. do you have an example player for win32 or linux that does that already? I'd like to see what it looks like.18:51
disqanother improvement in the songlist would be to skip the track number if there's only one track in the list. it could look better, not sure.18:51

trevarthandisq: I might be able to do that too. I mostly have full albums here. not a big one song guy.18:52

disqtrevarthan: okay. btw, if you search at google you'll find wavy text (text baseline going up and down like a sine wave) it's not that one i'm talking about. the idea is to get the text scrolling speed (velocity, if you will) change depending on the closeness to the beginning/end.19:01
timelesssciboy; no :)19:01
X-FadeHmm found another microb bug.. Zooming in doesn't scale background images..19:02
trevarthandisq: yeah, I get it. take a look at widgets.Text.offset. That's the variable that will change depending on proximity to the edge of the text (or middle, depending on implementation).19:02
timelesstrevarthan: it is the new firmware19:02
disqtrevarthan: rtcomm installed fine for me. if you have gpe or openedhand pim repositories it would be wise to disable them though (the known bug about evolution* could be triggered by that)19:02

trevarthantimeless: disq: here's the mailing list thread if you're interested: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.maemo.devel/10712/focus=1072019:14
disqanyway, need to dyson (my new word for vacuum cleaning) my carpet, brb.19:14

timelesswon't get anyone anywhere19:14
*** celesteh has joined #maemo19:14
trevarthandisq: yeah, I think I mention portrait view in the TTD. I talk about rotating things, I think.19:14
pupnikWhere does the crew of the Enterprise go to work-out?19:14
pupnik"The It's Dead Gym"19:14
disqtrevarthan: i'm read almost all of the posts in maemo-devel, sardine-devel and maemo-users (talk about free time)19:15
trevarthandisq: I'm *definitely* going to do a portrait view. But I'm going to do it after a release.19:15
disqtrevarthan: yeah. btw, you should have a list for the todo items before the first release and just focus on them19:16
trevarthanpupnik: ah. so we're only getting PPU optimizations on Nokia, unless we decide to go the FB route. Are you using SDL or FB?19:16
pupnikSDL, but i've looked at siarhei's (sp?) mplayer fb hack and that's doable19:17
disqtrevarthan: because the player is mostly good and usable right now. (add exit confirmation to esc key?)19:17
* timeless goes to read the other bug19:17
trevarthandisq: I do. It's the part of TTD before "- Place project on Maemo Garage."19:17
disqi think that's too much stuff19:18
*** fab has quit IRC19:18
timelessok19:18
trevarthandisq: I definitely want to add gst support before I make a release. I don't think mplayer should be a requirement.19:18
disqpossible to make a slightly half assed but equal functioning release19:19
timelessso the original problem...19:19
timelessa certain Hama 4GB SD card had a CRC problem with a fast MMC clock frequency19:19
timelesslowering the frequency to 24MHz enabled a copy from the card to work19:20
trevarthandisq: I could add gst support and release now... I just don't have any motivation to. What would that buy me besides release-day headaches?19:20
timelessa Transcend MiniSD 4GB SDHC otoh.. which also had CRC errors19:20
disqmmm.. i shall make a lolcat-of-the-day-background-image-changer19:21
timelesswell, lowering the clock speed caused the CRC errors to disappear19:21
timelessbut the card then responded with command timeouts to block reads19:21
timelessanyway, that's all the information available internally19:21
disqtrevarthan: people are out there, starving for a good music player! :P though you're partly right, there are so much media players out right now. to stand out you need to offer a near complete release19:22
timelessthe 2gb micro sd card i had also was visible as timeouts iirc19:22
timelessthe guy i gave it to couldn't figure out what to do with it19:22
disqor so many. rather than so much.19:22
timelessanyway...19:22
timelessif you or anyone else wants to hunt down the problem, you'll almost certainly need kernel mmc debugging enabled19:22
trevarthandisq: that's what I was thinking. those things on the list now are what I think I need in order for kagu to be really attractive to people and stand out. I don't think many people use A2DP. other than that, maemoscrobbler support is the only thing that kagu currently offers that ukmp doesn't offer.19:23
timelessit /might/ be possible to ship sd cards to nokia, however i suspect, at least from prior experience that there are enough already19:23
timelessnokia does actually have at least one such card19:23
timeless(the debugging output wasn't enough for the engineer to figure out a fix from a cursory inspection)19:24
*** Luria has quit IRC19:24
trevarthandisq: oh, I'd need a gui for ukmp-scanner and I'd need to add makefiles for the deb before a release too, so the number of things in front of those critical items isn't really that long.19:24
disqtrevarthan: btw have you considered downloading album covers from other sites? sniff itunes traffic? allmusic.com? i'll work on that.19:24
trevarthandisq: nope. but go ahead. sounds good.19:24
Jaffatrevarthan/disq: does it currently use "cover.jpg" et al? Or just ID3 album art?19:25
trevarthanJaffa: yeah. it'll use cover.jpg and folder.jpg.19:25
trevarthanI think ukmp only uses cover.jpg right now.19:26

Hyperion|n800trevarthan, seems so :x19:40
disqsciboy: high profile stock brokers? celebrities? well. i wouldn't buy from that seller :P19:40
disqhe's trying to sell the 770 as if it was a phone. also lying about it.19:41
trevarthanHyperion|n800: the funny thing is that we were just discussing that bug. timeless had a 4 page rant about it. The sad thing is that your mmc card might be bricked. Hopefully not. But maybe.19:41
sciboydisq, If I had much freedom to shop around elsewhere, I would.19:41
timelessodds are it's a brick19:41
timelessit's not funny19:41
timelessactually, the gmane list is kinda conufsed19:42
timeless54313 wasn't really about "file corruption"19:42
timelessit was about CRCs preventing file copies19:43
* timeless shrugs19:43
timelessi can't stick that into the bug now because it's morphed19:43
timeless(and this is why morphing bugs is bad)19:43
Hyperion|n800trevarthan, heh, ok19:43
timelessbtw, not that you'd like it, but i suspect that if you read the nokia handbook19:44
trevarthanNokia needs to recall that firmware.19:44
timelessit probably says something like "only use official nokia supported cards"19:44
timelessand then has a tiny list of nokia vendor cards19:45
timelessit'd be good if someone could get one of those corrupted :)19:45
timeless(much better leverage)19:45
Hyperion|n800also, is there any way to install the packages needed for skype all at once and not individualy?19:45
trevarthanI bet someone could. I suspect the problem happens regardless of vendor.19:45
timelesstrevarthan: i believe so too, just noting that it really can't be me19:46
timelessand really, at this point, that's about the only way to speed things up.19:46
timelesspractically speaking, nothing can happen before mid august19:46
trevarthanI wonder if calling Nokia tech support and bitching would help?19:46
timelessthe biggest change from my perspective in the firmware was a fix for dead touchscreens19:46
timelesstrevarthan: they log them like bean counters19:47
timelessif enough people overfill a bean bucket, it's noticed19:47
trevarthanyeah, that's what I figured. Hyperion|n800: please call Nokia and complain loudly because their firmware bricked your card.19:47
timelessbe sure to include some details19:48
trevarthanno f'ing way I'm upgrading. shame too. I really want to play with SIP and the touch screen fixes too.19:48

timelessgive me the package names and i'll let you know19:55
timelesshyperion: ie the ones that will brick things19:55
Hyperion|n800heh19:56
disqtrevarthan: inspected, decided the sine wave scroll is not the thing for the song title. because it's best when the text is going back and forth (think knight rider effect) it's kinda pointless to use it with the song title wrapping around. it could be used in other places, like when the songlister scrolls (to get it to stop faster maybe, useful for fast scrolls)19:56
pupnikhehe @ knight rider19:56
Hyperion|n800timeless, I´ll deal with it later, thanks19:57
disqtrevarthan: the code is something like this: "math.sin((math.pi*current_step/2)/max_step)" this gives you a nonlinear number between 0.0 and 0.999 depending on current_step's location in max_step.19:57
db48xno, you mean it computes a nonlinear function, not that the resulting number itself is nonlinear19:58

Hyperion2010hrm, so it seems that it is not a problem with the sd card at the moment since I can write to it from windows....20:56
gomiamHyperion2010: are you having problems reading a SD card in Maemo?20:58
gomiams/Maemo/N800/20:58
infobotgomiam meant: Hyperion2010: are you having problems reading a SD card in N800?20:58
gomiamreinsert it and, if that doesn't work, restart the tablet20:58
gomiamit sometimes gets stupid and won't understand there's a perfectly valid card there.20:58
Hyperion2010well it will read, it just wont write20:59
Hyperion2010and I'm not running the 26-4 borked things20:59

gomiamwhat browsing engine selection menu? >:-)21:00
Luriauhh anyone know if rtcomm is usable?21:00
Luriawould be nice not to have to run gizmo21:00
disqgomiam: you should read a few pages of scrollback21:05
gomiamoh, I should read _so_ many things. Exams take some precedence though21:07
disqgomiam: to sum it up: http://browser.garage.maemo.org (and the hidden=true thingy is in /home/user/.browser, allows you to switch between opera and microb)21:07

trevarthandisq: how would math.sin((math.pi*current_step/2)/max_step) be used to compute a non-linear rate?21:09
gomiamwhat kind of non-linear rate would you want to compute, trevarthan?21:10
trevarthanI don't really. :) that's why I'm asking disq. It's his code.21:10
gomiamah :-D21:10
disqtrevarthan: you could multiply it with the max velocity. it would give you the velocity for step current_step21:11
trevarthanwhere max_step == max velocity?21:11
gomiamtrevarthan: nope.21:11
trevarthanyeah, sorry. terrible at rates....21:12
gomiamthe code you pasted gives you values between 0 and 121:12
disqno. max_step is the length of the "track". current_step is the animated item's position in that track21:12
gomiam(if 0<=current_step<=max_step)21:12
trevarthandisq: wouldn't that give you an always increasing rate though?21:13
disqfor instance you could use it to animate/slide the album cover image at the bottom, when the album changes. the cover image would start sliding from the bottom fast (or slow) and get slower (or faster) as it reaches its target position21:14
*** mgedmin has quit IRC21:14
trevarthanah. so that gives a non-linear rate, but it's up to you to set the limit.21:14
disqtrevarthan: the thing is it's supposed to increase in relation to a sine wave21:14
trevarthanI see.21:14
trevarthanI would probably use a spline for that same sort of thing, or a hyperbola....21:15
gomiamtrevarthan: I'm more partial to parabolae ;-P21:15
disqthough probably doing these kinds of things with evas should be much easier and even may not require any code. not sure, never used it21:16
Hyperion2010why is it that the nokia site change log is out of date?21:16
*** fab has joined #maemo21:16
Hyperion2010and/or where can I get the latest change log?21:16
trevarthangomiam: stop poking fun at the mathematically challenged. I get on with my crappy knowledge. I just have to google things more. :)21:17
trevarthanI had some good spline code a few years back when I was doing stuff with DirectX... I should dust that off and play with it.21:18
Hyperion2010trevarthan, as it turns out I'm not running the latest version (3.2007.26-4) yet my sd card still registers as read only21:19
Hyperion2010I checked fstab to see if anything was up with that21:19
Hyperion2010but it seems that it is not21:19
trevarthanthat's odd. I'm running 3.2007.10-7. I didn't know there was a version release between my firmware and the bad one.21:20
trevarthanyou sure 3.2007.26-4 isn't the latest?21:20
Hyperion2010hrm21:21
Hyperion2010apparnetly it is the 10-721:21
Hyperion2010cause thats what Im running21:21
* Hyperion2010 wonders what timeless was talking about21:21
trevarthanoh. you're running 10-7. ok. I get it. 26-4 is the bad one....21:21

Hyperion2010ya21:21
Hyperion2010I'm trying a restart now.... I've popped things in and out21:22
Hyperion2010nothing quite seems to work21:22
Hyperion2010I am using the >2gb kernel though....21:22
trevarthanI've heard mention that the external SD card slot on the n800 has different electrical characteristics than the internal slot. It's possible that is what is causing these problems. Perhaps the problem exists in all firmwares.21:23
trevarthanyou're running the SDHC kernel?21:23
Hyperion2010ya21:23
trevarthanIf you can't get the n800 to shut off, pop the battery out. Happens to me all the time.21:23
Hyperion2010ah ok21:23
Hyperion2010ya, I never know if its actually turned all the way off or not....21:24
trevarthanIf you can't get the damn thing to boot, plug it into the wall while you're booting. I had that problem yesterday.21:24
Hyperion2010heh lol21:24
Hyperion2010which way does this thing pop?21:24
trevarthanIf you get a white screen while booting, then it reboots automatically, you're probably screwed. Ask me how I know.21:24
Hyperion2010from the end with the +- or the other end?21:25
trevarthanother end21:25
Hyperion2010k21:25
trevarthanI use the battery cover (the curved edge) to pop it out.21:25
Hyperion2010got my fingernail to work21:25
trevarthanyow. I did that a few times, but I have to do it so much during kagu development that it made them hurt.21:26
Hyperion2010haha21:26
gomiamWhile you are talking about firmware versions you have mentioned 26-421:26
gomiamis that a development version? I ask because I have 10-7 and 26-8 from the Nokia site21:27
Hyperion2010blargh, still saying read only....21:27
Hyperion2010maybe it is 26-8 and I just miss typed21:27
gomiamHyperion2010: stupid question, is the card in the "read-only position"?21:27
Hyperion2010there's such a thing?21:27
trevarthan:)21:27
gomiamyep21:27
Hyperion2010because it will write in windows21:27
trevarthansometimes, yeah21:27
Hyperion2010when it is hooked through the usb21:28
gomiamcheck the SD card and it could have a white sliding plastic21:28
timelessok, for kicks, we're installing microb on a much older os release :)21:28
gomiamwith a text that says "LOCK" nearby21:28
gomiamI have had some surprises with it21:28
Hyperion2010hr, the files on the card are marked read only21:29
Hyperion2010but the folders are not....21:29
gomiam!21:29
trevarthansomething else you might try: can you format the card in windows? Perhaps formatting will hide the problem? (no clue if that's even possible)21:29
Hyperion2010no idea21:29
gomiamtrevarthan: yes, you should be able to reformat the card21:29
Hyperion2010its a fat 32 right?21:29
trevarthanyeah21:29
Hyperion2010I'll give it a shot21:29
teer2Who makes the default webbrowser?  Is it opera?21:30
trevarthanI have to wonder if one of the bits on the card just went bad or something....21:30
trevarthanyeah, opera.21:30
teer2trevarthan: Thanks21:30
gomiamHyperion2010: if you haven't started formatting, try creating a new file (if you didn't already)21:31
Hyperion2010I will21:31
Hyperion2010I'm backing stuff up atm21:31
gomiamok21:31
Hyperion2010in windows all the files are check with "archive" anyone know if that is normal?21:32
gomiamHyperion2010: yup21:32
Hyperion2010k thanks21:32
gomiamwhen you copy files the already copied files are marked "Archive"21:32
gomiamat least, that used to be the way in MS-DOS21:32
gomiamand knowing the way MS develops software... :-D21:32
Hyperion2010haha21:33
Hyperion2010we know vista is just a slightly tweaked xp with some drm and fancy graphics and new kernel D:21:34
gomiamHyperion2010: that's not the worst of it. It _all_ still runs on a 16 bit kernel ;-)21:34
gomiamjokes aside, you are right21:35
trevarthangomiam: even the 64 bit version?21:35
gomiamtrevarthan: well, they just put 4 16 bits kernels running concurrently21:35
gomiamand hope one of them stays alive when the other three crash21:35

Hyperion2010no luck creating a new folder gomiam21:35
gomiamdrat21:35
Hyperion2010should I format through the usb connection21:36
trevarthanI hate mathematic notation. I don't understand a bit of it. I stopped thinking like that sometime after algebra because I started using computers....21:36
gomiam"format through the usb connection" as in "through a USB SD-card reader"?21:36
gomiamtrevarthan: ok, so what's it that is giving you problems now?21:37
Hyperion2010well I have a card reader in my monitor, but I'm not sure that will work21:37
Hyperion2010but when I plug the n800 into the usb21:37
trevarthangomiam: I'm not telling. You'll make fun of me again. :-P21:37

zuhAnd that's the expectation anyway22:59
X-FadeAnd resizing is buggy. Hence bug 1671 ;)22:59
disqit hits the over 90% avg cpu mark easier than opera, whilst loading sites22:59
X-FadeBut still. It is not bad.23:00
*** GAN800 has quit IRC23:00
Xarkgpd: I think it has a "Set Engine" file menu option to switch back to Opera...23:01
_Shurik_I'd like for Opera to remember "optimized view"  settings on per site basis23:01
XarkShurik: Yes, since on some sites its a disaster and on others virtually required.23:02
zuhPerfectly adequate for my browsing on that thing, I dislike it in general so it's very rare (even more so since I don't have mobile net access anyway)23:02
_Shurik_I wonder if anyone entered this as a request23:02
_Shurik_but in general everyone is now going to start caring about low res devices all of the sudden23:03
_Shurik_not that long ago noone cared about 800x600 anymore when designing sites23:03
zuhYeah, and it shows23:03
_Shurik_although there are still people on that res... I wonder where they come from23:04
_Shurik_(non mobile I mean)23:04
XarkX-Fade: Yeah, its noticably slower than Opera, but much better functionality.  I'm pretty happy with it for a first release.23:04
_Shurik_Xarc: microb?23:04
XarkShurik: Yeah.23:04
X-FadeXark: Yep, few rendering bugs make my life a little harder. But hey, you can't have it all :)23:04
_Shurik_interesting23:05
_Shurik_minimo had a good potential23:05
XarkX-Fade: I am very happy to get access to Google apps (without minimo which I wasn't too happy with).23:05
_Shurik_simply because I think mozilla renders html the way it was intended23:05
XarkShurik: Doesn't microb use the same rendering engine?23:06
_Shurik_I have no idea, I just heard about it few minutes ago :))23:06
_Shurik_haven't googled it yet... moving some files into production right now23:06
X-FadeXark: It uses Gecko. Just like Firefox does..23:06
*** Luria has joined #maemo23:07
XarkShurik: My impression is that is a customized mozilla derivitave (or at least using Gekko rendering engine).23:07
_Shurik_very interesting23:07
_Shurik_is there a way to have it without it replacing opera?23:07
*** slomo has quit IRC23:07
unique311yes23:07
Xark_Shurik_: There is a file menu to switch back to opera engine.23:07
X-FadeXark: It uses Gecko 1.9 which will also be in Firefox 3.023:07
_Shurik_wicked23:08
unique311.browser file located in the user folder23:08
_Shurik_I hope it has a better support base then minimo23:08

unique311if you seen it down there...23:33

_Shurik_I would like to have more cameras pointing into the windows of NYC23:38
_Shurik_which is what google is doing anyway. I heard they patented tv with webcam. With google regime TV is watching YOU!23:39
