trevarthan | Luria: I've been watching the new Battlestar Gallactica series lately. I think I'm the only geek on the planet that missed it when it came out. It's bloody fantastic. I think it's even better than the new Doctor Who series.... | 00:00 |

timelE61i | hi db48x | 00:02 |
db48x | hello :) | 00:02 |
db48x | what client do you use on that thing? | 00:03 |
timelE61i | how'd it read? | 00:03 |
trevarthan | Luria: didn't know they were the same. I used to watch ds9 when I was a kid. I liked it. I liked Babylon5 more though. | 00:03 |
db48x | your rant? | 00:03 |
timelE61i | mIRGGI | 00:03 |
Luria | bab5 was great, except for the acting | 00:03 |
* timelE61i nods | 00:03 | |
trevarthan | :) | 00:03 |
db48x | it was good :) | 00:03 |
* db48x loved bab5 | 00:04 | |
trevarthan | have you guys seen Firefly? That was a killer series while it lasted. | 00:05 |
timelE61i | btw, do you habe hw? | 00:05 |
db48x | timelE61i: you should post that sort of thing on the website | 00:05 |
db48x | no, I don't | 00:05 |
trevarthan | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefly_%28TV_series%29 | 00:05 |
timelE61i | web site's official, it'd require approval... | 00:06 |
disq | firefly rocks | 00:06 |
* db48x shrugs | 00:06 | |
*** megabyte405 has joined #maemo | 00:07 | |
timelE61i | so how's your build? | 00:07 |
dragorn | trevarthan: firefly coming to HD this month, too, if you have dish | 00:08 |
Luria | but the legacy of ds9 writers/producers:battlestar, 4400, the dresden files... | 00:08 |
db48x | timelE61i: it failed again | 00:08 |
db48x | I'm giving up on mounting it from outside the vm | 00:08 |
trevarthan | I used to watch the old BG series when I was a kid and really, really, really, really bored. I think that's why it took me so long to start watching the new one. It had this whole 70s crappy tin robots and boredom stigma in my mind. | 00:08 |
db48x | I'll just have to run the vm any time I need access to the source | 00:08 |
*** melmoth has quit IRC | 00:09 | |
db48x | oh, and it turns out the reason it was taking so long before was that it was swapping | 00:09 |
timelE61i | tomorrow i get to try to figure out why the set engine menu didn't install | 00:09 |
Luria | are people mostly working on the vm or installing scratchbox on dedicated machines? | 00:09 |
timelE61i | ah, heh | 00:09 |
db48x | the vmware guest driver had 600 megs resident, in my 256 meg virtual ram | 00:09 |
trevarthan | dragorn: nah, I've got MythTV, so I'm old school analog cable. I don't use it much anymore though. I think Naruto and Doctor Who are all I record. I mostly bittorrent stuff these days. | 00:09 |
timelE61i | i use both | 00:09 |
Luria | i just dont get why they made the vm so damn big | 00:10 |
timelE61i | ? | 00:11 |
Luria | the appliance | 00:11 |
Luria | i dont need a full ubuntu install | 00:11 |
* dougsko thought there was a maemo vm appliance for a sec there | 00:12 | |
Luria | ummm | 00:13 |
Luria | http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/directory/702 | 00:13 |
dougsko | heh im dumb | 00:13 |
Luria | no problem. just dont ask me to run your code. | 00:14 |
Luria | (j/k) | 00:14 |
* trevarthan drools on himself | 00:14 | |
dougsko | oh ok, so its basically just ubuntu with scratchbox already set up on it | 00:14 |
Luria | yeah | 00:14 |
db48x | I'm only using a vm becaause my normal os is a 64 bit linux | 00:15 |

db48x | heh | 00:38 |
timelE61i | remember, this is 3g. Which means i'm neither at home nor at work | 00:39 |

db48x | certainly no worse than I myself have done | 00:45 |
milhouse | hyperion - i guess so, the search box is there but it's not working, probably due to it's beta status | 00:45 |
milhouse | i just wish it had tabs :) | 00:46 |
db48x | --enable-embedding-tests is nice | 00:46 |
Hyperion2010 | hehe ok | 00:46 |
Hyperion2010 | its still better than opera :x | 00:46 |

timelE61i | i.e. We're not bad intentioned just poorly tested | 01:37 |
timelE61i | i'll figure it out after i sleep | 01:38 |
edt | time1E61i your webpage said it was a test and that you wanted feedback - hence this | 01:38 |
edt | I am _very_ pleased to see this | 01:39 |
edt | I will be even more glad when it manages to scroll smoothly without popping up the keyboard without reason | 01:39 |
edt | it also buffers the scroll request so when you release the key it keeps on scrolling | 01:40 |
edt | which is a _pita_ | 01:40 |
timelE61i | slightly more interested in getting notes for 3.2007 up | 01:40 |

edt | timeless I suspect you will be a very busy person for the next couple of days... | 02:15 |
* timeless shrugs | 02:15 | |
edt | Its not a bad thing if it means the product get better fast | 02:15 |
timeless | most of the bugs people will file already exist internally | 02:16 |
timeless | and most aren't fixed because they're nontrivial | 02:16 |
timeless | saving zoom state for instance | 02:16 |
timeless | the state stuff is managed by gecko | 02:16 |
edt | timeless why not get some of these posted externally? | 02:16 |

edt | what is the restriction an nda? you could probably get some of us to sign if we gain something (maybe just more access) from the transaction. | 02:19 |
timeless | no | 02:20 |
timeless | it's that the non employees aren't generally allowed to interact w/ the public | 02:20 |
edt | for instance I would love to know why 4bit and 48m support was disabled on the 4.2007 kernel mmc support | 02:20 |
timeless | general contracting rules say that contractees can't really disclose they exist | 02:20 |
timeless | to whom they contract, or what they do | 02:20 |

timeless | having watched us try to maintain a *small* gateway to another company | 02:21 |
timeless | using only 2-3 people as gateways | 02:21 |
edt | you need a new class of people to work with opensource nda(ed) volunteers | 02:21 |

*** ryanfaerman has quit IRC | 02:22 | |

edt | I know the kernel people have a setup for driver devs that works along these lines | 02:23 |
edt | so you can get help with drivers with devs under an nda with the end result that a gpl driver appears in the kernel | 02:24 |

* timeless shrugs | 02:33 | |
edt | as you well know its not hard to get the n800 to use different apps for specific mime types / file extensions (just two files in most cases from what I have seen) | 02:33 |
timeless | gecko's getting ogg w/o gstreamer | 02:33 |

pupnik | Still thats spin from the TI camp | 06:36 |
AD-N770 | xscale was based on ARM5 and current TI devices are ARM6, the new set of instructions for parallel calculations are nice | 06:38 |
pupnik | "The great thing about the ARM architecture is that the more I look at a piece of code, the more ways I find to optimize it. The conditional execution, barrel shifter and optional setting of the processor flags create many opportunities for optimization." | 06:38 |

db48x | they are more recent, but they don't need PAE | 10:49 |
db48x | the M stands for Mobile | 10:49 |

db48x | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 13:02 |
db48x | libc6-dev: Conflicts: libdb1-dev but 1.85.4-osso7 is to be installed | 13:02 |
db48x | E: Broken packages | 13:02 |
db48x | does anyone know what that means? | 13:03 |

*** matt_c has quit IRC | 13:05 | |
timeless | db48x: i'm about to head to lunch | 13:05 |
timeless | basically libc6-dev claims to conflict w/ libdb1-dev | 13:05 |
timeless | libdb1-dev is pending installation | 13:06 |
timeless | in debian land, generally speaking you can't install conflicting packages | 13:06 |
db48x | hmm, ok | 13:06 |
timeless | conflict resolution is um, "interesting" | 13:06 |
db48x | heh | 13:06 |
timeless | you can try to find a non conflicting pair | 13:06 |
timeless | or hack things | 13:06 |
timeless | did you see my page explaining how to install microb on the older n800 os release? | 13:06 |
db48x | by conflict do they generally mean they try to install different versions of the same files? | 13:07 |
db48x | no, I didn't | 13:07 |
timeless | http://www.webwizardry.net/~timeless/n800/microb-3.2007 | 13:07 |
timeless | incompatible possibly related files | 13:07 |
timeless | not necessarily ever actually overwriting the same files | 13:07 |
timeless | imagine /usr/bin/nano claimed to conflict w/ /usr/bin/pico | 13:08 |
timeless | even if nano didn't actually include a file named /usr/bin/pico | 13:08 |
timeless | but just because it didn't want you to keep that old "icky" pico package | 13:08 |
db48x | nice | 13:08 |
timeless | or flash9 could claim to conflict with flash7 | 13:08 |
timeless | even though the two packages don't have any overlapping files | 13:09 |
timeless | often it's used as an upgrade/migration forcing scheme | 13:09 |
timeless | btw, i don't like debian structure :) | 13:09 |
timeless | if i want flash7 and flash9 installed, i should be able to have both :) | 13:09 |
timeless | similarly if i want gcc295, 296, 300, 301, 302, 303, 304, i should be able to have all of the above :) | 13:10 |
db48x | yea | 13:10 |
*** Djude has left #maemo | 13:10 | |

db48x | timeless: what makes you think it should be email? | 16:44 |
sKaBoy | blkhawk[work], i _don't_ know, if you're able to make it work.. feel free to do it! i've never tried it, i just tell you what i've read somewhere | 16:44 |
timeless | db48x: it'd be more useful for what i'm doing :) | 16:45 |
db48x | http://mxr-test.landfill.bugzilla.org/bugzilla/source/Bugzilla/User.pm#1394 | 16:45 |
blkhawk[work] | ok - jffs2 supports writing | 16:45 |
db48x | $self->login does return the user's email address though | 16:45 |
inz | timeless, then you'd need to change the function comment too | 16:45 |
timeless | inz: sure | 16:45 |
timeless | db48x: i know that | 16:45 |
timeless | problem is... | 16:45 |
blkhawk[work] | i find this extremly unfair - its like stepping on a landmine | 16:45 |
timeless | if you're visiting a bugzilla | 16:45 |
timeless | and someone wants to click on a commenter link | 16:46 |
timeless | they expect it to deliver mail | 16:46 |
timeless | but, mailto:user probably won't do the right thing | 16:46 |
blkhawk[work] | how can one forsee that this action is non.rreversible | 16:46 |
timeless | inz/db48x: please read the POD (line 1814) | 16:47 |
timeless | it clearly says email, no? | 16:47 |
db48x | yea, that's what my code does | 16:47 |
inz | timeless, it indeed does | 16:47 |
timeless | so am I right in being at least a bit confused? :( | 16:47 |
db48x | if $self->name is true, it returns "$self->name <$self->login>", otherwise it just returns $self->login | 16:48 |
timeless | db48x: yes, i can read the code | 16:48 |

timeless | db48x: they're good for corrupting your builds | 18:27 |
db48x | ah, ok | 18:27 |
timeless | some dbgs are -g versions of files | 18:28 |
* db48x writes that down | 18:28 | |

* alterego is about 1/2 way through ruby hildon bindings. | 18:40 | |

alterego | Yes, I'll be finished by this evening. Well, the hildon bindings. Still need to do osso. | 18:41 |
Veggen | ok. | 18:41 |
pupnik | oh, you can't remove the ones that came with the OS from app manager in normal mode | 18:41 |
Ceg | but can it be done another way which is like safe for me to for me todo ? | 18:42 |
pupnik | holy crap, vim is 19 MB | 18:42 |
alterego | Shocker. | 18:42 |
Ceg | vim= wat? | 18:42 |
derf | pupnik: And well worth it! | 18:42 |
alterego | I think it's like notepad for Windows. | 18:43 |
lmoura | alterego, good luck with the DBus stuff :) | 18:43 |
alterego | lmoura, dbus is done. | 18:43 |
pupnik | well you can free 3.3MB by removing the spellchecker | 18:43 |
timeless | ceg: application manager is a lot safer than alternatives | 18:43 |
timeless | but note that there isn't really an undo | 18:44 |
lmoura | alterego, I mean working with Dbus and osso-conic at the same time | 18:44 |
alterego | dbus, gconf, gnomevfs is already done. | 18:44 |
timeless | you can't put things back after you remove them | 18:44 |
alterego | lmoura, right. Well, I'll cross that bridge .. :) | 18:44 |
Ceg | right ok | 18:44 |
Ceg | so my best option is not to do it? | 18:44 |
derf | timeless: Yes, I learned the hard way not to remove dnsmasq. | 18:44 |
timeless | are you planning on building mozilla firefox on your device? | 18:44 |
lmoura | alterego, I was going crazy while making the python bindings for ConIC. Due to the old dbus version (0.61...) there are some problems while using dbus with ConIC | 18:45 |
timeless | or openoffice? | 18:45 |
pupnik | Ceg, i've got tons of games installed, and i'm only using 82.2M out of 123.5M with 41.3M free (67% usage) | 18:45 |
Ceg | i would like to but i don't have clue how to | 18:45 |
Ceg | lol | 18:45 |
timeless | exactly how do you plan to run out of space? | 18:45 |
timeless | media files belong on mmcs :) | 18:45 |
Ceg | right so my best option is to leave it for now and see how i get on with the space? | 18:46 |
db48x | yay | 18:46 |
db48x | http://db48x.net/temp/Screenshot-98.png | 18:47 |
Ceg | oh ok :) | 18:47 |
lmoura | alterego, The problem was the the dbus connection used in the bindings was somehow conflicting with the connection used to setup the ConIC. So I had to create one connection manually just for the binding | 18:47 |
lmoura | alterego, anyway, it's nice to see that progress in Ruby (My first dinamic language, :) | 18:47 |

procto | i.e. do they need some conversion? | 19:38 |

pupnik | ah hi | 19:39 |
procto | I actually have the seal script for mu right here on my desk at work | 19:40 |
Jaffa | procto: No ease at all if you don't have source, as most ARM-compiled Debian packages are for a different ABI. | 19:40 |
procto | Jaffa: ah | 19:40 |

Jaffa | `0660: I would if I wasn't going to the cinema tonight | 19:59 |

`0660 | yeah :/ | 20:00 |
`0660 | though it would be enough if it would load the block list from a fixed location | 20:00 |

Jaffa | (AIUI you've still got userContent.css support) | 20:03 |
timeless | right | 20:03 |

tauren_ | ok, thats good to hear. i don't have one yet but am 99% sure that I'll use it as my platform. Just trying to answer some questions in advance. | 21:06 |
tauren_ | good point keesj | 21:06 |
timeless | i wouldn't recommend disabling watchdog | 21:07 |
tauren_ | the 770 is so cheap right now. is there any reason to go for the 800 instead if all i'm doing is running the web browser only? | 21:07 |
timeless | you want the watchdog to watch over your kiosk app | 21:07 |
timeless | i guarantee you no support from nokia if you buy 770s :) | 21:08 |
*** adoyle has joined #maemo | 21:08 | |
timeless | it's rare that you'd ever see me make any guarantee :) | 21:08 |
tauren_ | so that's why its so cheap. nokia said "get rid of them..." :) | 21:08 |
*** TimRiker has quit IRC | 21:08 | |
timeless | fairly typical, yes. if you're planning a deployment and don't need a low grade camera or stereo speakers, yes, the 770s should do nicely | 21:09 |
tauren_ | thanks timeless, very helpful info | 21:09 |
timeless | note that you're probably going to get to build the browser yourself, and atm the browser doesn't come w/ ui source, so you might end up build ing a different one | 21:10 |
tauren_ | doesn't it come with opera? and isn't there a mozila/minimo version for it? | 21:10 |
tauren_ | oops, spelled that wrong. | 21:11 |
timeless | 770 comes w/ opera8, n800 comes w/ opera8.5 | 21:11 |
timeless | there was an old build of minimo for the 770, but i believe the people working on it stopped worrying about 770 | 21:11 |
timeless | not certain but.. | 21:11 |
tauren_ | do you know if it is hard to hide all toolbars, etc. and have browser in fullscreen always? I don't want users to be able to go anywhere except one website. | 21:11 |
timeless | it's trivial w/ minimo, and if the browser ui is open sourced, that'd be trivial too | 21:12 |
* sp3000 grumbles | 21:12 | |
* sp3000 wants google reader's left pane to go hide | 21:12 | |
tauren_ | hmm... why is the ui not os? | 21:13 |
blkhawk | the ui isn#? | 21:14 |
blkhawk | thought it was an x server | 21:15 |
blkhawk | xepyr i think | 21:15 |
tauren_ | referring to browser's ui | 21:15 |
blkhawk | ah | 21:16 |
tauren_ | oh yeah, another question. Can the 770 be charged while it is sitting in its case, or does the case cover the ports on the bottom? | 21:16 |
timeless | tauren_: please don't ask. it's not necessarily a policy decision, it could be a pragmatic thing, it might appear tomorrow or a year from now, don't speculate, just be happy a browser appeared | 21:17 |

TimRiker | ok, an update on my n800 service request for any who listen..... | 22:56 |
TimRiker | in May a bought a new n800. it was defective out of the box. I called Nokia who said they would "repair or replace it" if I shipped it to them *at my expense* | 22:57 |
*** mlpug has joined #maemo | 22:58 | |
TimRiker | So I did so (with trackig number). They got it May 9th. on May 15th they post an update on the web site saying it is "awaiting parts" | 22:58 |
TimRiker | it's been "awaiting" ever since. | 22:58 |
TimRiker | It appears that for over 2 months they have been trying to find a replacement unit to send me and have not been able to obtain one. | 22:59 |
TimRiker | no word from them. no phone calls, no emails, etc. | 22:59 |
TimRiker | all I got from them was "it's awaiting parts" | 22:59 |
TimRiker | now I call, and insist that is not good enough. (crazy me!) | 23:00 |
TimRiker | so I get the story about how the repair group does not have *even one* n800 *anywhere* in the US to send me. | 23:00 |
||cw | i would have taken it back to the store if ti was defective out of the box | 23:01 |
TimRiker | I'm floored. I think I'm in some bizzaro-world. | 23:01 |
TimRiker | ||cw: the "store" was a web site. | 23:01 |
TimRiker | I could not find one in any local store. | 23:01 |
||cw | I'd still try | 23:01 |
TimRiker | nokia agreed with me that it was defective out of the box. | 23:02 |
TimRiker | and still, 2.5 months with no replacement or repair. | 23:02 |
TimRiker | anyhow. after much insisting, they have offered to refund my money if I send them a copy of my printed sales receipt. .... you get the irony? it's an online purchase. there was no printed sales receipt. | 23:03 |
Ceg | anyone know where i can download x-chat from for the 770? | 23:03 |

guru3 | like it was shipped with a dead radio | 23:11 |
guru3 | now how the hell do you let that happen out of a factory | 23:11 |
Sulis | do they actually test the units? | 23:12 |
guru3 | i would hope | 23:12 |
guru3 | you know, QC and all | 23:12 |
Sulis | i'd think that would be a long task and i doubt that they do | 23:12 |
Sulis | probably they test a random sample from each batch | 23:12 |
guru3 | hmm | 23:13 |
TimRiker | so now I've had the opportunity spend $21 or so in shipping and long distance charges to have the privilege of loaning Nokia my $375 plus tax for 2.5 months (so far) | 23:13 |
guru3 | yeah that sucks | 23:13 |
TimRiker | contrast this with HPs support. I had an iPaq that died out of warranty during an OS upgrade. They next-day-air me a replacement with a self addresses pre-paid label to return the old one. | 23:15 |

milhouse | timeless: shame :( | 23:45 |
X-Fade | timeless: Did you try with 1.4.x versions? | 23:45 |
timeless | it's abysmal | 23:46 |
timeless | cairo assumes non sucky X | 23:46 |
timeless | 770/n800 don't have that | 23:46 |
timeless | put another way, the Mozilla based browser for maemo is not based on cairo. we wasted months undoing the Gecko => cairo transition in order to have something we could ship | 23:47 |
timeless | all because of speed. | 23:47 |
*** ryanfaerman has quit IRC | 23:47 | |
timeless | believe me we had people who tried all sorts of things to make cairo speed not suck | 23:47 |
timeless | and believe me, i don't approve of wasting time backporting away from cairo | 23:47 |
milhouse | timeless: do you think the x problems can be solved? | 23:47 |
timeless | replace the x server with nvidia's? sure | 23:48 |
milhouse | i know the N800 video hadrdware has some bandwidth issues | 23:48 |
timeless | otherwise? provide some hackers to write non sucky cairo only caching impls of things | 23:48 |
milhouse | so it's not a hardware issue, purely software? i'm not an expert on x so don't know what other options are available | 23:48 |
timeless | i don't think it's impossible. but it seems fairly clear nokia won't be doing it | 23:48 |
timeless | Gecko works fine using Gtk2 | 23:49 |
timeless | Gecko is slow using Cairo | 23:49 |
timeless | same Gecko | 23:49 |
timeless | Same X | 23:49 |
*** dirty_harry has quit IRC | 23:49 | |
timeless | different path | 23:49 |
timeless | Cairo is stupid | 23:49 |
timeless | cairo asks X to do things repeatedly instead of doing it itself once and keeping the answer and giving X fewer instructions | 23:49 |
timeless | note: if X is better, there's no problem | 23:50 |
timeless | X won't be better. | 23:50 |
milhouse | so it's not really an X problem...? | 23:50 |
milhouse | just the way Cairo works? | 23:50 |
timeless | X isn't fixable | 23:50 |
milhouse | smashing. :( | 23:50 |
timeless | nvidia's X server/driver is good | 23:50 |
timeless | ATI's X server/driver is bad | 23:50 |
timeless | the one in nokia n800 is probably worse than ATI's | 23:50 |
milhouse | hmm.. not much chance of getting Nvidia x server to work on an N800! ;) | 23:51 |
||cw | it's frame buffer isn't it? | 23:51 |
timeless | you aren't going to improve the hardware of the n800 xserver | 23:51 |
timeless | and you aren't going to be able to make the software implement more features smarter | 23:51 |
