Dea1 | hey - estazi - many thanks - although ill probably be back on here again regularly | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
erstazi | Dea1, I try, I am new to scratchbox myself | 00:00 |
erstazi | Dea1, I think if a few more people contribute, then more people will be jumping on getting these tablets (: | 00:01 |
Dea1 | quick qestion - do these binaries include the nokia emulator or is that a separate install? | 00:01 |
erstazi | mmm I am not sure about that, I read about the emulator and what not | 00:01 |
erstazi | I believe the devkit is that, but I haven't gotten further than that | 00:01 |
erstazi | Dea1, all I know is, I was following this part: http://www.scratchbox.org/documentation/user/scratchbox-1.0/html/installdoc.html#cctarget | 00:02 |
Dea1 | yeah - the N770 is great, although not a lot of people get what its about - im in the UK and use it a lot - we have mobile 3G so with my nokia phone its great for surfing websites on the move | 00:03 |
*** lsobral_ has quit IRC | 00:05 | |
erstazi | Dea1, I use my n770 to even place phone calls and vnc to my work | 00:05 |
erstazi | I even do some programming by tapping the keyboard heh, though its a rarity,... I prefer to ssh to the n770 | 00:06 |
*** hyph_n has joined #maemo | 00:06 | |
erstazi | hello hyph_n | 00:06 |
hyph_n | hi there | 00:06 |
hyph_n | last time i was here i had a problem | 00:07 |
Dea1 | im using my n770 to manage Windows Server 2003 (rdp) - wish it had eyboard input though | 00:07 |
hyph_n | then my n770 bricked with a white screen | 00:07 |
hyph_n | so... got my money back & ordered another one | 00:07 |
hyph_n | no white screen so far...! | 00:07 |
hyph_n | Dea1: i think i've seen something that allows u to connect a bluetooth keyboard to the n770 | 00:08 |
erstazi | hyph_n, did you upgrade it with the latest updates? were you in red pill mode when it white screened? (haha the white screen of death) | 00:08 |
erstazi | yeah there are quite a few compatible bluetooth keyboards | 00:08 |
erstazi | there is a list somewhere | 00:09 |
erstazi | let me search | 00:09 |
Dea1 | cheers | 00:09 |
hyph_n | erstazi - i had reflashed it.... hadn't even got close to the red pill thingy! | 00:09 |
hyph_n | anway, got another problem with the replacement... very very very poor wifi reception! | 00:09 |
erstazi | hyph_n, hmmm | 00:09 |
hyph_n | 1 inch (2cm) from the Access Point and the BEST i can get is 50%...! | 00:10 |
erstazi | you have a n770 currently right? | 00:10 |
hyph_n | yes | 00:10 |
*** _Monkey has joined #maemo | 00:10 | |
hyph_n | the previous one (while it worked) had great reception | 00:10 |
erstazi | hyph_n, do you know where control panel is? | 00:10 |
hyph_n | yes | 00:10 |
erstazi | follow me there | 00:10 |
hyph_n | there | 00:10 |

erstazi | hyph_n, sorry | 00:12 |
erstazi | distraction (kids) | 00:12 |
erstazi | back though | 00:12 |
hyph_n | lol - know what u mean! | 00:12 |
erstazi | hyph_n, ok, double tap connections or connectivity or whatever it is | 00:13 |
hyph_n | erstazi, my gut feel is that the internal antenna is no connected... (?) | 00:13 |
erstazi | in the control panel | 00:13 |
hyph_n | done | 00:13 |
erstazi | click the middle connection button | 00:13 |
hyph_n | done | 00:13 |
erstazi | are you on the nokia right now online? | 00:13 |
erstazi | or are you on a pc? | 00:13 |
hyph_n | niether - i'm on a Mac ;-) | 00:14 |
erstazi | ok godo | 00:14 |
erstazi | s/godo/good | 00:14 |
erstazi | now select your *normal* connection and then verify that you are using wlan and then select next | 00:14 |
erstazi | what security method are you using? | 00:14 |
hyph_n | wep | 00:14 |
erstazi | ok | 00:14 |
erstazi | next | 00:15 |
hyph_n | (yes i know, but i have an Apple Newton that doen;t support WPA) | 00:15 |
erstazi | what type of wep encryption? 128bit? | 00:15 |
hyph_n | yes | 00:15 |
erstazi | I have to use WEP because I don't want to buy a new router | 00:15 |
hyph_n | 13 char ascii | 00:15 |
erstazi | ok same here | 00:15 |
erstazi | anyhow, click next to the end and select advanced | 00:15 |
erstazi | there is an "other" tab | 00:15 |
hyph_n | done - the power is 100mw | 00:15 |
erstazi | select that and tell me what you see for a WLAN transmission power | 00:15 |
hyph_n | :-) | 00:16 |
erstazi | ok | 00:16 |
erstazi | wtf | 00:16 |
erstazi | wonder if its the router | 00:16 |
erstazi | apple newton is a tower right? | 00:16 |
erstazi | not a laptop? | 00:16 |
hyph_n | powerbook G4 | 00:16 |
erstazi | ok | 00:16 |
hyph_n | and a MacBook (intel) | 00:16 |
erstazi | how is the wireless on those? | 00:16 |
erstazi | I wonder if its the router | 00:16 |
hyph_n | great | 00:16 |
hyph_n | i can also connect OK with a Palm TX | 00:16 |
hyph_n | all with good range | 00:17 |
erstazi | hmmm | 00:17 |
erstazi | there must be something talking about that | 00:17 |
erstazi | I notice that myself | 00:17 |
erstazi | its usually positioning of other items | 00:17 |
erstazi | like there is a microwave on the other side of the wall where my router is | 00:17 |
hyph_n | mmmm | 00:17 |
erstazi | and we have 5.8ghz phones that don't bother the router but 2.4ghz does | 00:18 |
hyph_n | the odd thing is, that my previous n700 worked ok | 00:18 |
erstazi | have you tried switching the channels for your router? | 00:18 |
hyph_n | i haven't | 00:18 |
erstazi | I don't know if yours supports it or not | 00:18 |
erstazi | but the laptops and n770 will recognize the new channel | 00:18 |
hyph_n | but i get the same problem in the office (i'm the Sys Admin there | 00:18 |
*** shackan has joined #maemo | 00:18 | |
hyph_n | i think the unit is foobar | 00:19 |
erstazi | possibly | 00:19 |
erstazi | I would call customer service | 00:19 |
hyph_n | i'm going to tomorrow | 00:19 |
erstazi | hyph_n, keep me informed though | 00:19 |
erstazi | this might happen to mine haha | 00:19 |
hyph_n | no probs | 00:19 |
erstazi | and honestly, these 770's can take a beating | 00:19 |
hyph_n | as a side note, someone else in the office (one of my staff) is also getting a n700 | 00:19 |
erstazi | I have dropped this tablet more than I have with any cell phone and its working great (thanks to no harddrive) | 00:19 |
hyph_n | 770 | 00:20 |
hyph_n | i'll see what his is like in the same environment | 00:20 |
Dea1 | just to let you guys know (if youre in the US) that a company (www.expansys.com) was selling new 770 in the UK for 70GBP. Theyre all gone now, but you may find a few on ebay.co.uk!!! | 00:20 |
hyph_n | Dea1: i just got mine from there | 00:20 |
Dea1 | :) ok then | 00:20 |
hyph_n | If you search you can get a 770 + 1GB rsmmc for only a few quid more..! | 00:21 |
Dea1 | yeah - i missed that one | 00:21 |
erstazi | Dea1, buy.com has it for 63 guid | 00:21 |
hyph_n | Play.com also have them | 00:21 |
Dea1 | bought one for my girlfriend too - she loves it (which is strange cos she hates technology) | 00:21 |
hyph_n | :-) | 00:21 |
erstazi | my wife is jealous of my nokia | 00:22 |
Dea1 | is buy.com us based? | 00:22 |
erstazi | she won't admit it, but I see it in her eyes | 00:22 |
hyph_n | loving the screen - makes a great ebook reader! | 00:22 |
erstazi | Dea1, you might have to pay a customs tax I am not sure | 00:22 |
erstazi | they offer payment in many different currencies | 00:22 |
Dea1 | well with her having one she doesnt mind me playing with it in bed (THE NOKIA!!!!!!) | 00:22 |
erstazi | haha | 00:23 |
erstazi | I bring mine to bed, just started and finished reading "The Machine Stops" last night, great ebook (: | 00:23 |
Dea1 | just finished downloading all the other packages erstazi - quick q why two devkits - debian and maemo??? | 00:23 |
erstazi | um... I am not sure about that haha | 00:23 |
erstazi | if you have OS2006 I believe you have maemo2, but I could be wrong | 00:23 |
erstazi | or is it maemo3? | 00:24 |
erstazi | Dea1, if you look in synaptic and search for scratchbox, you will see all the debs you can install | 00:24 |
Dea1 | god knows - there is info out there its just not that clear | 00:24 |
*** vims0r has quit IRC | 00:24 | |
erstazi | Dea1, well they are not clear on that | 00:24 |
*** vims0r has joined #maemo | 00:25 | |
Dea1 | well ill have a play around with it....once again thx for the help | 00:25 |
erstazi | do we call it maemo4 or OS2007? | 00:25 |
erstazi | no problem, any time | 00:25 |
erstazi | if I knew more about scratchbox I would help you more | 00:25 |
*** ryanfaerman has quit IRC | 00:25 | |
erstazi | but I am limited on it, I finally got it installed last night | 00:25 |
Dea1 | its okay - im gonna be delving in, so ill let u know how I get on | 00:25 |
erstazi | Dea1, btw | 00:25 |
erstazi | I am going to start a port for a very light weight speech to text, so if you think that would interest you, I would definitely appreciate the help (: | 00:26 |
erstazi | I think this is what both 770/n800 are lacking and of my knowledge, there is not an app for maemo/arm | 00:27 |
Dea1 | oo er - might be over my head - im an ex game programmer - but yeah keep me update - if anything itll help to re-rust my skills | 00:27 |
hyph_n | bugger! - it looks like expansys have stopped selling the n770 (or have run out) | 00:27 |
hyph_n | looks like i won't be getting an exchange then...! | 00:27 |
hyph_n | :-( | 00:27 |
erstazi | hyph_n, talk to nokia directly | 00:27 |
Dea1 | you can get ir repared under warranty??? | 00:27 |
*** Tu13es has quit IRC | 00:27 | |
derf | I thought CMU's speech engine was already ported. | 00:28 |
erstazi | derf, for OS2006? | 00:28 |
Dea1 | what ebook viewer do you use erstazi - and what respository | 00:28 |
*** greentux has joined #maemo | 00:29 | |
hyph_n | yeah i know.. but the unit is only 2 days old... so under my 'statutory consumer rights (UK)' i can get a replacement too | 00:29 |
erstazi | Dea1, do you have openssh installed? | 00:29 |
hyph_n | Dea1: i use fbreader | 00:29 |
hyph_n | www.fbreader.org | 00:29 |
erstazi | hyph_n, I was just going to get there | 00:29 |
erstazi | hyph_n, I am going to give Dea1 my sources.list | 00:29 |
erstazi | http://c-wd.net/sources.list | 00:29 |
Dea1 | cheers thx for that | 00:29 |
derf | http://users.tkk.fi/~tnikkila/maemo/flite/ | 00:30 |
erstazi | anyone can use them, I commented the ones that need a gpg key (I don't have the time to grab them all) and the ones that are not working | 00:30 |
erstazi | I use fbreader though | 00:30 |
erstazi | nice app | 00:30 |
hyph_n | ty :-) | 00:30 |
erstazi | also, make sure you back up your sources.list just in case | 00:30 |
Dea1 | ok! | 00:30 |
hyph_n | i guess i need to get my head around this whole blue/red pill thingy | 00:30 |
erstazi | when you get that sources.list inputted, you can go to your application manager and refresh the catalogue and then install whatever you need | 00:31 |
erstazi | hyph_n, its real easy, you know how to do it? | 00:31 |
Dea1 | hey - quick question (another one) - no problems setting up wifi - but is there any way to stop it having to reconnect - even though I have unlimited timeout it still reconnects (i.e. flashed the wifi icon a few times) when I load the browser - or is this just it renogitiating the WPA key? | 00:31 |
*** luck^ has quit IRC | 00:31 | |
hyph_n | erstazi, no idea | 00:31 |
erstazi | Dea1, I am not sure about that | 00:32 |
hyph_n | dea1: it is already unlimted | 00:32 |
*** etrunko has quit IRC | 00:32 | |
erstazi | hyph_n, go to your applications manager, make a new | 00:32 |
hyph_n | btw - the bluetooth range is also a bit crap | 00:32 |
Fatal | I read that as "bluetooth rage" | 00:33 |
hyph_n | lol | 00:33 |
erstazi | hyph_n, application manager > Tools > Application Catalogue then click new and type in the web address matrix and hit cancel | 00:33 |
erstazi | then you will have a choice between red pill and blue pill | 00:33 |
erstazi | and then make sure you do your updates | 00:34 |
hyph_n | wow | 00:34 |
hyph_n | what is the difference between red and blue? | 00:34 |
erstazi | its a cheap hack they put into the nokias... they are "suppose" to be putting it in a settings for advanced users | 00:34 |
hyph_n | :-) | 00:34 |
erstazi | red pill opens up the nokia for more advanced users | 00:34 |
hyph_n | groovy | 00:34 |
*** ajturner has quit IRC | 00:35 | |

Dea1 | fasted gun in the west | 00:36 |
milhouse | good boy :) | 00:36 |
hyph_n | erstazi - ok, i chose red... now what does that mean? | 00:37 |
erstazi | hyph_n, it opens your nokia to more advanced usage | 00:37 |
hyph_n | erstazi, which means...? | 00:37 |

erstazi | some people suggest the i-Tech Virtual Bluetooth Keyboard with the nokia 770 | 00:39 |
hyph_n | erstazi, thanks for that ... is this the route to becoming root on the unit? | 00:40 |
milhouse | becomeroot | 00:41 |
_Monkey | i heard becomeroot was is easily obtained from [770/OS2006] http://eko.one.pl/maemo/dists/mistral/user/binary-armel/becomeroot_0.1-2_armel.deb or [770/OS2007HE and N800/OS2007] http://eko.one.pl/maemo/dists/bora/user/binary-armel/becomeroot_0.1-2_armel.deb or for a more long winded method http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HowTo_EASILY_BecomeRoot | 00:41 |
alehandro | ssh root@127.1 with password rootme ;) | 00:41 |
milhouse | that too :) | 00:41 |
milhouse | or R&D mode. | 00:42 |
erstazi | hyph_n, becomeroot | 00:42 |
erstazi | haha | 00:42 |
hyph_n | i've seen references to becomeroot kicking around... | 00:42 |
erstazi | hyph_n, I suggest getting openssh | 00:42 |
alehandro | How can i build correct package for nokia770, with 'armel' architecture. I install maemo-2.2 following on maemo.org site instruction...but result package name 'nokianx_0.5-1_arm.deb', not 'armel' architecture. On maemo-3.0 all successful, but package on device not insallied, because incorrect libraries version | 00:43 |
erstazi | openssh? | 00:43 |
_Monkey | openssh is a FREE version of the SSH connectivity tools that technical users of the Internet rely on. http://maemo.org/downloads/product/openssh/ | 00:43 |
alehandro | ;) | 00:43 |
hyph_n | yeah i installed ssh on the previous unit before it bricked | 00:43 |
erstazi | alehandro, you have OS2006 unless you put OS2007HE on there | 00:43 |
erstazi | so when you search on maemo, thats what you look for | 00:44 |
erstazi | alehandro, do you know how to add to a sources.list? | 00:44 |
Nermal | erstazi: thanks for all your help tonight - I'll be back when the 770 arrives :) | 00:44 |

_Monkey | nano is a tiny text editor. Needs xterm/ssh. http://maemo.org/downloads/product/nano/ | 00:57 |
erstazi | or | 00:57 |
erstazi | leafpad? | 00:57 |
_Monkey | it has been said that leafpad is a simple GTK+ text editor that emphasizes simplicity. http://maemo.org/downloads/product/leafpad/ | 00:57 |
erstazi | xterm? | 00:57 |
_Monkey | xterm is the enhanced version of osso-xterm from maemo-hackers. It adds font and color selection support, URL opening through context menu, and a sidebar with additional keys such as Ctrl+letters. http://maemo.org/downloads/product/osso-xterm-advanced | 00:57 |

*** alterego has joined #maemo | 01:00 | |
alehandro | not correctrtly ... jawbone is formulated ;))) | 01:01 |
alterego | Anyone else really wish they could copy and paste between their N800 and other computers? | 01:01 |
erstazi | personally, I think English is a horrible language and even worse international language... it should not be an international language at all | 01:01 |
*** Yamazaki-kun has quit IRC | 01:01 | |
alterego | English isn't that bad. There's a lot of bloat but it is quite expressive. | 01:01 |
erstazi | alterego, the only way I know of is ssh or instant message | 01:01 |
alterego | Obviously I'm biased though. Being English and all ^_^ | 01:01 |
*** guardian has quit IRC | 01:02 | |
erstazi | well, I see both sides... but it is expressive in some areas but in other areas very lacking | 01:02 |
alterego | Where? | 01:03 |
erstazi | there is not a perfect language... | 01:03 |
alterego | No, and there won't likely ever be one. | 01:03 |
erstazi | alterego, take the verb "love" for instance | 01:03 |
alterego | You have issue with love? :D | 01:03 |
erstazi | you can love your mother and father... you can love your neighbor, you can love your wife | 01:03 |
alehandro | english is relatively simple that other west-european languages, and our customers speak also english, although they are germans | 01:03 |
alterego | erstazi, so? | 01:04 |
erstazi | alterego, just an example (: | 01:04 |
alterego | alterego, you have a problem with loving thy neighbour? | 01:04 |
erstazi | heh | 01:04 |
alterego | erstazi, ^^ | 01:04 |
erstazi | [18:04] <erstazi> alterego, just an example (: | 01:04 |
alehandro | they have bad english, and we... and we understand each other | 01:05 |
alterego | Are you saying that 'love' isn't expressive enough? | 01:05 |
alterego | I agree that the word can mean different kinds of love. | 01:05 |
alterego | But then, what is love? | 01:05 |
erstazi | alterego, no need for defensiveness, I am American, my mother's side is English and my father's side is Austrian but of course raised to speak primarily English | 01:05 |
alterego | erstazi, I'm not being defensive :) | 01:05 |
alterego | There are plenty of words in the English language I think are pointless. | 01:06 |
erstazi | alterego, in many other languages, they have different verbs for the different meanings of the English word "love" | 01:06 |
Dea1 | Meine deutsch ist nich so gut :) | 01:06 |
alterego | But for the most part I really like the language. | 01:06 |
erstazi | Dea1, haha | 01:06 |
alterego | Dea1, das ist nicht so gut, es tut meir lied. | 01:06 |
*** matt_c has quit IRC | 01:06 | |
erstazi | alterego, well, I am more coming from the fact of a non-native speaker learning English | 01:06 |
Dea1 | ja - sehr gut, nicht :) | 01:07 |
erstazi | its a hard language to learn compared to other languages out there | 01:07 |
alterego | erstazi, yeah. I hear that's hard. | 01:07 |
*** vivijim has joined #maemo | 01:07 | |
erstazi | I just find those who take on learning English deserve credit, its a difficult language | 01:07 |
alterego | erstazi, I think it's harder to learn because of all the different slang terms and also different areas tend to use a completely different vocabulary :) | 01:07 |
erstazi | oh definitely | 01:08 |
erstazi | even within the UK itself | 01:08 |
alterego | Yah, I know. | 01:08 |
alterego | I even have a hard t ime keeping up with all the slang ^_^ | 01:08 |
erstazi | so many different dialects in England | 01:08 |
Dea1 | whered u live in the UK erstazi? | 01:08 |
erstazi | it shocked me | 01:08 |
erstazi | Dea1, I live in the US | 01:08 |
alterego | I'm from Cambridge, we're supposed to be quite posh. | 01:09 |
erstazi | heh | 01:09 |
Dea1 | lived... | 01:09 |

*** sbaturzio has joined #maemo | 01:09 | |
alterego | I've been using my N800 for Rails development whilst in the bath. It's quite relaxing ^_^ | 01:09 |
erstazi | Dea1, I stayed there but not lived | 01:10 |
alehandro | erstazi, Are there sometime old maemo developers? Did you know? My question remains open ;( | 01:10 |
erstazi | I wanted to move to London | 01:10 |
alterego | Cambridge is awesome. If not a bit small. | 01:10 |
Dea1 | your N800 is in the bath, is it nice and clean then? mmaybe a way to keep the screen free from smudges!! | 01:10 |
erstazi | alehandro, there are a few, pupnik is one | 01:10 |
erstazi | I hate smudges | 01:10 |
erstazi | and hate is a strong word | 01:10 |
Dea1 | Cambridge is nice, London is horrible - dirty, crowded. | 01:11 |
erstazi | alehandro, I am sticking my porting and packaging to the 770 because thats what have and there are quite a few with a 770 | 01:11 |
alterego | I was here when maemo first started. But I stopped my envolvment with the community until pretty recently. | 01:11 |
erstazi | Dea1, I was in milton keynes for a month | 01:11 |
Dea1 | never mind - im sure you got over it :) | 01:12 |
erstazi | whats that? | 01:12 |
alterego | I've been back literally just over a month. Been working on Ruby-Maemo port and bindings :) | 01:12 |
alehandro | erstazi, the morning I spoke with him. he also did not know how to solve the problem, because preparing for n800 | 01:12 |
erstazi | ah | 01:12 |
erstazi | alterego, I don't mind RoR, it is a bright star, but python is looking bright also | 01:13 |
alterego | I actually started coding in Python before Ruby. | 01:13 |
erstazi | alehandro, I am not too sure who all are old maemo developers.. I wish I had a list | 01:14 |
alterego | I found Ruby to be a lot more flexible. It's so much nicer :) | 01:14 |
erstazi | alterego, it is very flexible and nice | 01:14 |
erstazi | how well does ruby work with existing databases? | 01:14 |
alterego | Fine. | 01:15 |
erstazi | maybe I heard FUD, who knows | 01:15 |
alterego | You just specify the connection information database name and then the table name. | 01:15 |
alehandro | erstazi, after my search for maemo deveolopers, I concluded the bulk developers are n800 python, developers, but i write in pure c/c++ with gtk+ | 01:15 |
erstazi | I take everything in with a grain of salt | 01:15 |
erstazi | alehandro, well, I appreciate what you do | 01:16 |
erstazi | alehandro, what applications do you have out? | 01:16 |
alterego | erstazi, what you've heard is probably related to the fact that people start learning Rails with no Ruby knowledge and try to jump into the deep end. | 01:16 |
*** mazzen has joined #maemo | 01:16 | |
erstazi | alterego, that is probably so, and that would be FUD then haha | 01:16 |
erstazi | hello mazzen | 01:16 |
mazzen | hello erstazi | 01:17 |
erstazi | how are you mazzen? | 01:17 |
erstazi | alehandro, I think there is a list of developers on maemo.org but I could be wrong | 01:17 |
alterego | There is a lot of FUD surrounding Rails and it's not so good for the community. People become very sceptical and wont look into the platform, which is a shame because it's awesome :) | 01:17 |
*** OgMaciel has quit IRC | 01:18 | |

erstazi | hello syntux, how are you? | 01:18 |
erstazi | good mazzen, tired though (: | 01:19 |
alterego | I think my only issue with Ruby/Rails, ruby specifically, is that the interpreter isn't to speedy. This will be fixed when Ruby 2.0 is released later this year. With the YARV bytecode interpreter. | 01:19 |

erstazi | syntux, http://maemo.org/downloads/product/minimo/ try this one | 01:36 |
erstazi | syntux, they need to be ported for maemo/ARM arch | 01:37 |
syntux | erstazi, are there any docs on porting apps from debian into N800 env ? | 01:38 |
alehandro | syntux, on maemo site | 01:38 |
erstazi | syntux, you can use scratchbox for porting | 01:38 |
erstazi | or read up on maemo.org | 01:38 |
alehandro | syntux, simple example here http://test.maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/howto_porting_an_existing_application.html | 01:39 |

zakx | it has a stand, so maybe it'll fall less often | 02:08 |
zakx | scnr. | 02:08 |
MobileSim | Software-wise, I meant. :p | 02:08 |
sp3000 | it has more memory so you'll be less likely to run into reliability issues partly triggered by low memory (or slowness if you swap) | 02:11 |
sp3000 | but I haven't really used 770 so I can't say much from experience | 02:11 |
* MobileSim is starting to get annoyed with daily browser crashes coupled with inconvienent limitations like being unable to copy email addresses. | 02:12 | |

JesseT78 | Hallo erstazi :) | 03:21 |
erstazi | hello JesseT78 | 03:22 |
erstazi | wb | 03:22 |
erstazi | (: | 03:22 |
JesseT78 | lol it keeps messing with my user name | 03:23 |
JesseT78 | So I used the dropbear method and have root now as well | 03:23 |
JesseT78 | (I've also used a mac flasher to set "enable usb host mode" and I'm not sure it if worked) | 03:24 |
JesseT78 | so I am hoping that the root-level usb futzing commands can confirm if the setting is enabled or not | 03:24 |
*** eXeonical_ has quit IRC | 03:24 | |
*** garrett has quit IRC | 03:24 | |
*** greentux has quit IRC | 03:25 | |
erstazi | why do you want usb host mode? | 03:26 |
erstazi | just curious | 03:26 |
JesseT78 | The N770 device is meant to be part of a radio testing tool | 03:26 |
JesseT78 | so it needs to connect, ideally via usb, to a keyboard, but also to an ethernet dongle and a gps transciever | 03:27 |
JesseT78 | In this environment I cannot use bluetooth or wifi for the keyboard and/or network since it's goal is to test a radio and it need not add (undue) noise to the spectrum. | 03:29 |
* JesseT78 waits for the "you're crazy!" speech ;) | 03:31 | |
erstazi | ah | 03:31 |
erstazi | no that sounds interesting | 03:31 |

JesseT78 | We chose this unit specificly to fill this role. It's very inexpensive and, given the success of the usb hack, very much does every little thing we need. | 03:32 |
bldewolf_ | dragorn: any idea on how to do wifi encryption that isn't officially supported, then? | 03:32 |
timelyx | JesseT78: so have you gotten a powered usb hub and solder hacked it to work as required? | 03:32 |
JesseT78 | They are wifi radios. Mostly 2.4ghz but we have some radios in the 5ghz range. I know that is outside the scope of Bluetooth but I'd rather have full emissions control. :) | 03:32 |
JesseT78 | timelyx: I've got a powered usb hub and wired up a USB Y cable so as not to have to break into the hub itself | 03:34 |
erstazi | JesseT78, you aren't in the US are you? | 03:34 |
JesseT78 | The Y cable could easily be the cause of this not working right, which is why I would like (if possible) to use a root cli tool to confirm the N770 is in fact in usb host mode, just to isolate probable causes. | 03:34 |

anothy_x | a few days ago, i rebooted my N800. since then, the browser won't start, returning "Internal error. Application 'Web' closed." regardless of how it's started. it's the only observable failure. | 03:36 |
anothy_x | are there crash logs on the device? i've got ssh and root access enabled. | 03:37 |
erstazi | anothy_x, did you check /var/logs/? | 03:37 |
erstazi | thats usually where they are located | 03:37 |
timelyx | anothy_x: which browser? | 03:37 |
erstazi | anothy_x, if worse comes to worse, you might need to flash the n800 to original factory defaults unless you made a backup | 03:38 |
timelyx | and which version of system software? | 03:38 |
timelyx | there are 4 versions of system software and 2 browsers | 03:38 |
JesseT78 | It's so freaking cool I can ssh into this nokia btw heh | 03:38 |

*** bipolar has joined #maemo | 04:25 | |
Darksmurf | Hello. I am waiting for my N770 to arrive. While waiting I've been reading everything I can find about the N770, and maemo in general. As I understand it the last 'offical' release of maemo was based on OS2006. There is now a 2007 hackers edition. I've seen mention of problems with the 2007 version on the 770. I'm wondering what verison I should use. I intend on using a USB keyboard + SSH most of the time. What are | 04:25 |
JesseT78 | Hola Dark. :) | 04:26 |
JesseT78 | I've just been playing with SSH on os2005 (I think that's my os?) today, no problems there | 04:27 |
Darksmurf | Also, I'm thinking about trying to use the 770 as an access point for my cellphone's EDGE/UMTS connection. Has anyone been able to get iptables to work? | 04:27 |
JesseT78 | To use a usb keyboard you'll need a powered hub and a USB Y cable hack it is said; I am still trying to get that part working myself though | 04:27 |
Darksmurf | JesseT78 glad to hear it. I'm already searching for a good 5v power source to power the keyboard. I'm going to modify a USB hub so I don't need the y cable. | 04:28 |
JesseT78 | dark: by access point, do you mean you gain internet through your cell's edge/umts and then rebroadcast via bluetooth to the nokia, or the other way around? | 04:28 |
Darksmurf | exactly...allow other wifi devices access to my net connection. I doubt the 770's wifi chipset will work in AP mode, I'd be happy to use Ad-Hoc. I don't need DHCP, I can have clients manualy set IP, GW, DNS, etc | 04:29 |
JesseT78 | darksmurf: The notable part is that power to the keyboard in this circumstance is not the only problem. The N770 needs power to be supplied to it's usb port as well, even when it is in usb host mode. Normally the usb host provides power instead of drawing it, but that is an odd flaw in the N770's design. | 04:29 |
Darksmurf | I think it would be useful for car trips, etc. | 04:30 |
Darksmurf | Yeah, thats what I understand. | 04:30 |
JesseT78 | Sounds ambitious. :) I cannot forsee a good reason why iptables would have trouble working on the N770, but I've read no data on the subject. | 04:31 |
Darksmurf | After I mod the hub it won't be usable on a PC anymore. I'm think I'm going to try to embed it in my keyboard. Its a small Logitech usb keyboard designed for the playstation 2. | 04:31 |
Darksmurf | The only results I can find are related to setting up a desktop as a router for the tablet. | 04:32 |
JesseT78 | darksmurf that is similar to the reason I chose a usb Y cable, so that I wouldn't have to even mangle any hubs. Cables are cheaper to mangle. ;) | 04:32 |
Darksmurf | I guess once I get it I'll have a go at building iptables as a module, but I've never had much luck making kernels or modules. :-( | 04:33 |
JesseT78 | Yeah I am just glad I don't have to travel a road like that ;) | 04:34 |
Darksmurf | JesseT78 I think I can get a very small hub that will be perfect for this for almost nothing from work. (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2463878&cp=&sr=1&origkw=usb+hub&kw=usb+hub&parentPage=search) It even has the mini B cable included | 04:34 |
pupnik | Nokia770-49:~# which iptables | 04:34 |
pupnik | /sbin/iptables | 04:34 |
JesseT78 | ooer | 04:34 |
Darksmurf | pupnik nice :-) | 04:34 |
Darksmurf | thanks | 04:34 |
Darksmurf | pupnik: what happens w/ 'iptables -L' ? | 04:35 |
Darksmurf | JesseT78 how long have you had your tablet? | 04:36 |
JesseT78 | Darksmurf I've used it now for a few cumulative hours. Got it a couple of weeks ago but couldn't move forward with our project until our electrical guy prepped the Y cable | 04:36 |
JesseT78 | Now I am just having trouble making that part work as advertised. | 04:37 |
Darksmurf | is it just not working? or is it intermitent? | 04:37 |
JesseT78 | Asuming that is somehow our fault, I have had pretty much no things to be dissapointed about by the device. It is marvelous. :) | 04:37 |
JesseT78 | Our current status is the device is in usb host mode, but when I use Y cable and powered hub a usb keyboard does not make keystrokes appear on my screen. I am trying to get some diagnostic angle into here to see where things are going wrong. | 04:38 |
Darksmurf | Of course, not having a tablet I can't be much use, and am basicly talking out of my *$#, but... Have you tried 'dmesg'? From what I've seen you should see mention of the hub being connected, and then the keyboard. I seem to remember reading somewhere that it didn't work right if you had USB plugged in when the device booted. | 04:40 |
JesseT78 | The guys here on the channel want me to install sysklogd so's I can see some USB log goodness. That is among the subgoals I am accomplishing now, I shall try dmesg as well | 04:41 |
pupnik | Darksmurf: normal iptables behavior | 04:42 |
JesseT78 | The system does run on top of unix and it is no more than smoke and mirrors to get Xterminal and root and just live in unix land. It is #@$%ing awexome :) | 04:42 |
pupnik | Nokia770-49:~# dmesg |wc -l 175 | 04:43 |
JesseT78 | yep, I have got me some dmesg | 04:44 |
JesseT78 | Another thing I just did is wandered through the connection manager and set myself a static ip | 04:44 |
JesseT78 | device goes to sleep, disconnecting the wifi often. On reconnect tends to get a new ip address. Then my SSH session gets difficult to manage. ;) | 04:44 |
pupnik | i just leave a ping running from desktop to 770 | 04:45 |
Darksmurf | I'm about to head back to school for the first time in a few years. I was thinking it would be great to have a small device with a good sized screen and nice keyboard that I could use to ssh in to my home machine and just take notes there. After a while I decided what I wanted didn't exist and I was about to give up. Then I remembered reading about buy.com having these things on sale. A little google search involvin | 04:45 |
Darksmurf | the words 'nokia 770 keyboard' and I had found a perfect device | 04:45 |
Darksmurf | pupnik I'll have to remember that | 04:46 |
pupnik | nice - i have the thinkoutside stowaway and it's almost perfect | 04:46 |
pupnik | the 'sierra' looks nice too | 04:46 |
Darksmurf | pupnik those are BT right? I'm more interested in the usb...I already have the kb and I can still use BT to my phone. | 04:46 |
pupnik | ppl have usb keyboards working too | 04:47 |
Darksmurf | yep | 04:47 |
Darksmurf | all I see are xterms w/ the rest of the gui visable..is there a way for it to go fullscreen? | 04:48 |
pupnik | yes the fullscreen button :) | 04:49 |
Darksmurf | very good :-) | 04:51 |
Darksmurf | I havn't been this excited about a handheld device in a long time. | 04:52 |
pupnik | you do understand that we expect you new 770 owners to become good worker bees and port and test linux apps to the device | 04:52 |
pupnik | :) | 04:52 |
Darksmurf | pupnik I'm all for it. But I doubt you want to see my C... | 04:52 |
pupnik | it's the coolest thing ever :) | 04:52 |
Darksmurf | I was just thinking about mpd... | 04:53 |
pupnik | yeah but i've found apps that 'port' in two minutes | 04:53 |
Darksmurf | OH! I read that nfs isn't support in os2006? but that CIFS was easy to enable...any experience? | 04:53 |
pupnik | apt-get source $appname && cd appname && dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b and ... presto | 04:53 |
Darksmurf | thats nice. I've always liked debian | 04:54 |
pupnik | yeah you just install the kernel with nfs | 04:54 |
erstazi | pupnik, you don't have to do hildonization or anything on the GUI? | 04:54 |
pupnik | to make it work well you do. but crosscompiling a game took only two minutes once (and it worked and was playable) | 04:55 |
pupnik | so that's pretty fun | 04:55 |
erstazi | awesome | 04:58 |
erstazi | pupnik, what game is this? you did this through scratchbox right? I want to try it out before I dig myself deeper | 04:59 |
erstazi | I am noticing some people use vmware | 04:59 |
erstazi | which I am not sure how successful that would be | 04:59 |
pupnik | there is a vmware image with pre-installed scratchbox, so it saves you some work (and lets you move the development environment between computers) | 05:00 |
pupnik | but of course it incurs some space and performance overhead | 05:00 |
erstazi | of course | 05:00 |
Darksmurf | Is that a vmware image of maemo? | 05:09 |
*** jyro has quit IRC | 05:11 | |
pupnik | it's a full image of some linux OS with scratchbox installed (and maemo within scratchbox) | 05:12 |
Darksmurf | I'm not familar with scratchbox... I was just reading mailinglist archives, mention of accessing a gui via VNC. would that be the same GUI as is on the tablet? I'm downloading vmware right now to give it a shot regardless. | 05:14 |
Darksmurf | nice...a torrent for the image | 05:15 |
Darksmurf | but no seeders.. | 05:15 |
pupnik | scratchbox is (i'm being imprecise) this set of shellscripts that manages a chroot type environment so you can compile stuff for different OS's and architectures | 05:17 |
Darksmurf | ah | 05:18 |
*** jurop88 has quit IRC | 05:19 | |
pupnik | maemo is the development platform for the nokia tablets. you can have a scratchbox containing a maemo system for the nokia tablets, next to a system for zaurus or other development environments | 05:19 |
pupnik | scratchbox easily lets you switch between the different build environments | 05:19 |
pupnik | so with the same source directory, you could build a version for x86, for nokia, for a zaurus or ipaq etc | 05:20 |

*** GnuKemist has quit IRC | 05:27 | |
shackan | it's an ARM chroot, inside a Linux host, inside a VmWare virtual machine, inside Windows | 05:27 |
pupnik | and different OSes - different OSes for the same machine | 05:27 |
shackan | funny, isn't it? | 05:27 |
pupnik | so you can build programs for IT2005, IT2006 and IT2007 on your pc by just switching 'targets' | 05:28 |
Darksmurf | any way for me to play w/ the maemo gui via vmware? | 05:29 |
*** eichi has quit IRC | 05:29 | |
pupnik | yes you can run gui programs for the nokia from within scratchbox on your pc | 05:30 |
*** mat__ is now known as mat | 05:32 | |
erstazi | pupnik, how do people port and package for both IT2006 and IT2007 | 05:37 |
erstazi | and pupnik you were correct about the maemo2.2==IT2006 and maemo3.x(and greater) == IT2007 | 05:37 |
pupnik | you set up two targets inside scratchbox, one for 2006 and one for 2007 | 05:38 |
pupnik | a lot of 2006 programs work in 2007 though | 05:39 |
erstazi | ah thats what I thought | 05:39 |

erstazi | hello world! got it | 07:12 |
nchntr | ima try it in a sec, question 1st.. does it matter where i mount it at? i.e. some tutorials say /mnt/ i am using /media/ because thats where the mmc gets mounted.. anyone with linux knowledge know the difference or correctr place? | 07:12 |
dolske | Darksmurf: my quit message in Colloquy (on a Mac) was "iChat 10.5 [Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) Mobile/1A938a Safari/429.3]" | 07:12 |

pupnik_ | yw erstazi | 07:12 |
Darksmurf | mount -t vfat /dev/ssda5 /media/usbhd5 tells 'mount' exactly what to do. /media/usbhd5 is the mount point..i.e. where to mount. if you had '/dev/sda5 /media/usbhd5 vfat user' in your /etc/fstab and you did a 'mount /media/usbhd5' it would look in fstab to see what settings to use..and your 'user' option would be in effect. | 07:13 |
*** Dasajev has joined #maemo | 07:13 | |
* Darksmurf is looking to see if 'user' is the correct option | 07:13 | |
* Darksmurf thinks 'man fstab' would have more info | 07:14 | |

nchntr | is there anything in the interface (maemo) that would keep the appz from writing to certain dirs? i.e. most apps working dirs look to be in /MyDocs/ , Might i have to mount it there to get the maemo apps to have correect access? | 07:14 |
nchntr | yea i copied that line, but removed the ,utf8,uid=29999 (wasnt sure if ther are device specific (RS-MMC) | 07:15 |

pupnik_ | that's the other thing yes | 07:15 |

Darksmurf | erstazi ahh! | 07:39 |
erstazi | if so you can just do: sudo gainroot | 07:39 |
erstazi | and that makes you root | 07:39 |
Darksmurf | nchntr yeah, you have to do those commands as the owner of the file | 07:39 |
Darksmurf | erstazi he put it there so he could find it in the maemo apps | 07:40 |

pupnik | nchntr: i think you should mount the volume with uid=29999 | 07:43 |

nchntr | ok this doesnt make sense... where can i add a mount command line to some kinda startup | 08:41 |
saaib | nchntr, what about fstab? | 08:41 |
nchntr | it seems (since i boot from MMC that there are all sorts of mounted devices and dirs, but my fstab only has the rootfs and mmc1 (in oem form) | 08:41 |
pupnik | in linux normally one adds a line to /etc/fstab and it mounts automagically with proper options - maybe not a good idea for the usb drive which will not always be connected | 08:42 |
nchntr | im starting to agree, but the MMC technically isnt always there either | 08:42 |
saaib | nchntr, what about autofs? | 08:42 |
nchntr | i have /dev/mmcblk0p2 as the 2nd part. on my MMC it is ext2 | 08:43 |
nchntr | it gets mounted but not in the fstab (or am i looking at the wrong fstab?) | 08:43 |
saaib | nchntr, mounted devices should be shown in mtab | 08:44 |

sparr | maemo mapper is going to sell me a bluetooth gps unit... | 08:45 |
saaib | nchntr, you might want to write a script to check up availability of the usb device before trying to mount it | 08:45 |
nchntr | where would i put that script? idk linux well | 08:46 |
trevarthan | milhouse: check the thread. response posted. | 08:47 |
saaib | nchntr, the easier will be to use autofs package to automount the usb device when needed, but a simple dummy daemon could do it and you can start that script from /etc/rc.local | 08:47 |
milhouse | trevarthan: checking... :) | 08:47 |
trevarthan | milhouse: long term, I want to separate Kagu's front and back end components so that we can have the PyGame frontend *and* a GTK frontend. For users concerned with CPU usage, the GTK frontend will be the obvious solution. | 08:48 |
nchntr | cant find /etc/rc.local | 08:48 |
trevarthan | milhouse: short term, well, I describe that in the thread. | 08:48 |
milhouse | what other alternatives are there to pygame? | 08:48 |
trevarthan | milhouse: 3, currently, that I'm aware of | 08:49 |
trevarthan | milhouse: 1.) GTK | 08:49 |
trevarthan | milhouse: 2.) EFL (Canola will be using this in the next release) | 08:49 |
trevarthan | milhouse: 3.) Web interface and javascript/AJAX. I'm not opposed to this either. | 08:49 |
trevarthan | erm... | 08:50 |
trevarthan | milhouse: 4.) CLI frontend. | 08:50 |
milhouse | trevarthan: some options then, but i guess a significant amount of retooling? | 08:51 |
trevarthan | I don't have time to code all of those myself, so if we want to see some of those in practice then Kagu is going to need help. I hope to lay out the foundation though. | 08:51 |
nchntr | alright time for some ZzZ's im outtie, thanks for everyons help and suggestions tomorrow is another day | 08:51 |
trevarthan | yeah. retooling is a good word for it. | 08:51 |

trevarthan | :) "looks" is so misleading. Anything can "look" excellent. even GTK can be themed. That's a function of the graphics artists behind a project. Of which we currently have none (but unique311 is stepping up there!) | 08:53 |
trevarthan | I'm not 100% sure about that. I *think* they're GTK widgets. | 08:53 |
trevarthan | milhouse: you saw how the widget became invisible during fast scrolling. | 08:53 |
milhouse | trevarthan: yes, it certainly wasn't perfect | 08:54 |
*** jacques has quit IRC | 08:54 | |
trevarthan | milhouse: I personally prefer the responsiveness of the pygame scroll widget, but yeah, it'd be nice to try. | 08:54 |
trevarthan | We don't need a scroll widget to do a GTK frontend though. | 08:54 |
milhouse | the only problem i have with the kinetic scrolling is that it sometimes jumps up/down which i think is due to it "locking" on to it's final resting position | 08:54 |
trevarthan | And we probably won't have one the first time around. | 08:54 |
trevarthan | milhouse: yeah. I call it "snapping". | 08:55 |
trevarthan | It's confusing? | 08:55 |
Darksmurf | so I see a (modified) tux next to what could be a pda type device... w/ a status bar in vmware..what exactly is loading? Is this just the distro, or is it part of maemo? | 08:55 |
milhouse | not confusing, but erm.. unattractive? | 08:55 |
trevarthan | ah. | 08:55 |
milhouse | i'm not sure what to suggest as an alternative, but i wish it didn't do it! :) | 08:56 |
trevarthan | funny. some people bitched about the *lack* of snapping on the GTK widget. | 08:56 |
milhouse | i think if you got rid of the OK button, you probably wouldn't need it to snap would you? | 08:56 |
pupnik | Darksmurf: does the pda device type window have a globe in the upper-left-hand corner? | 08:57 |
sparr | are there any semi-mature alternate interfaces for the 770? openbox, gpe, etc? | 08:57 |
trevarthan | milhouse: I could always make it an option. Snapping is necessary while we keep the OK button. But once I get rid of that, we're free to do away with snapping too. | 08:57 |
pupnik | openbox works somewhat | 08:57 |
milhouse | exactly and milhouse will be happy :) | 08:57 |
Darksmurf | pupnik no, now it has reverted to text console "Reading files needed to boot...." | 08:57 |
Darksmurf | I guess it was the base OS | 08:57 |
unique311 | trevarthan, not sure if I even come close to being a graphics artist....I like playing with photoshop. | 08:57 |
trevarthan | milhouse: I'll keep that in mind. remind me if I forget once the OK button goes away (probably not for another release or two) | 08:57 |
unique311 | been drawing all my life though | 08:58 |
milhouse | trevarthan: will do my best :) | 08:58 |
milhouse | this made me laugh: http://www.whatmobile.net/forumvb/showthread.php?p=204981#post204981 | 08:58 |
trevarthan | unique311: that's ok. your work is very very very appreciated. I've been getting harrassed on ITT for lack of a decent theme. You're helping with that, so I'm very grateful. | 08:58 |
pupnik | http://opensource.nokia.com/projects/maemo/maemo-hildon.jpg Darksmurf, this is what the 'desktop' looks like | 08:59 |
trevarthan | Alright gents, I've got to get some sleep. Night folks. | 08:59 |

trevarthan | unique311: yeah, that sounds good. cya. | 09:00 |
milhouse | unique - is it worth glyphing up the ok button if it's going to go away within a release or two? | 09:00 |
milhouse | just my opinion on time/effort/resources etc. :) | 09:00 |
qgil | Anybody fluent in pidgin for maemo irc usage? I'm trying to make the font smaller so i can see a wider range of conversation but i don't find the way | 09:01 |

sparr | dropping google maps from ~256 colors to ~16 colors cuts the filesize in half | 09:05 |
Darksmurf | pupnik so I'm in the so called 'Scratchbox enviroment" in the vmware image. It poped up another X server. Is there a way to start the nokia GUI? Or can I just view standard apps? | 09:06 |
*** Luria has quit IRC | 09:06 | |
qgil | There is font configuration under tools but seems to be for your outgoing text in IM, not to decide whether you want to see others texts in big or smaller fonts | 09:07 |
qgil | The app is neat though. A bit unstable still. | 09:07 |
*** MobileSim has joined #maemo | 09:07 | |
milhouse | qqil: yes. just re-installing pidgin then i'll root around to see if it's got any config files which might be ripe for editing | 09:07 |
pupnik | Darksmurf: standard operating procedure in the scratchbox environment to start the GUI is export DISPLAY=:2 and run af-sb-init.sh | 09:07 |

*** qgil has joined #maemo | 09:32 | |
qgil | milhouse: ahahà now it works! | 09:33 |
qgil | Weird | 09:33 |
milhouse | odd, no need to restart pidgin here, although the new font only takes effect in _new_ conversations | 09:33 |
saaib | pupnik, in terms of start developing a test app (not looking at the maemo UI), any pointers? Every page that talks about detting development enviroment requires the SDK. It's odd | 09:34 |
milhouse | ie. you need to exit/rejoin chats to pick up the new font | 09:34 |
milhouse | i'm running pidgin 2.1.0 here btw (latest version) | 09:34 |

roope | the new imac design is a bit off, imho. it looks like an old 80's television. with the "surureunat", black edges. | 13:31 |
konttori | I agree. Also, no audience reaction in the launch event. | 13:31 |
roope | And the "Jay Leno chin" still down at the bottom. :) | 13:31 |
konttori | It's like a no-news item | 13:31 |
konttori | ;) | 13:31 |
roope | Yeah, the video ... There's really a power in getting a fanatical crowd to watch those events. | 13:31 |
roope | That was presented really somewhere else, to non-fans. | 13:32 |
pupnik | apple did a deal with intel though :( boo | 13:32 |
roope | It makes a bit difference. To hear the claps after every sentence. | 13:32 |
konttori | Anyway, nice hardware upgrade and might look better when I see it live, but the presentation one didin't look that good. | 13:32 |
konttori | OTOH the BT keyboard looks like one I might switch to. | 13:32 |
pupnik | i think apple is tired of underdog cpus | 13:32 |
roope | Jobs even held some pauses, waiting for applause. | 13:32 |
*** senuxis has joined #maemo | 13:33 | |
konttori | true. Well, he got a few, but probably not in the places he was expecting them. | 13:33 |

konttori | yeah, apple launched new imac and ilife | 13:44 |
konttori | and iwork | 13:44 |
greygoo | mh, nice for their targetgroup | 13:44 |
greygoo | i really was fascinated by the iphone, until i got facts about it ... that was when i bought the n800 ;) | 13:45 |

guru3 | im waiting for openmoko | 13:57 |
gla55_ | any recent news on that? | 14:02 |
gla55_ | i'm not too intrested in openmoko untill they have a device with decent featureset.. | 14:02 |
guru3 | the developer edition is out | 14:02 |
guru3 | mass market edition in october | 14:02 |
guru3 | that one will mave more storage, better cpu, and wifi | 14:03 |
gla55_ | yeah but that was old news | 14:03 |
guru3 | that's all i know | 14:04 |
guru3 | i just am interested in it | 14:04 |
gla55_ | and just adding wifi doesn't quite cut the featureset to decent | 14:04 |
guru3 | ive been using the same phone for over 4 years now | 14:04 |
guru3 | any phone is an improvement | 14:04 |
gla55_ | heh | 14:04 |
guru3 | in the meantime i use a 770 | 14:06 |
guru3 | so it's all ok | 14:06 |

guru3 | im not that fussed myself | 14:08 |
gla55_ | hsdpa rocks | 14:08 |
guru3 | the reason my phone is so old now is because i hardly ever use it | 14:08 |
gla55_ | compared to edge, and has several advantages over wifi.. like being available | 14:08 |
guru3 | a moko would be more like a toy than a phone really | 14:08 |
gla55_ | a greenphone would be more like a toy at this point too :\ | 14:09 |
guru3 | i think that'd be even more of a toy than a moko | 14:10 |
guru3 | but i don't really know anything about it so that's first impression | 14:10 |
guru3 | anywho, g2g | 14:11 |
pupnik | a cell phone is what an employer pays me extra for to be able to reach me when a server goes down | 14:12 |
pupnik | alternatively what a girlfriend pays for to be able to nag me | 14:13 |
gla55_ | greenphone seemed quite nice tbh. but, boring featureset as a phone in this day and age(so, suck for personal use. and no market at least yet for apps so nogo profession wise) | 14:15 |

konttori | Hey, kudos for the nokia mozilla browser developer. The updated version seems and feels much nicer than previous one. | 16:29 |
guardian | does it happen to you: when i launch my app in armel sdk (with qemu) i notice a big lag at the very beginning | 16:30 |
guardian | then it's smooth | 16:30 |
guardian | tigert: yes the official themes, why not providing debs when one can bother taking the files out of the device ? | 16:31 |
disq | it didn't happen to me in mistral. I don't use qemu-armel anymore, I just cp over the binaries and use the device. | 16:31 |
*** florian has joined #maemo | 16:32 | |
guardian | also i never try to debug with armel/qemu, does it work ? | 16:32 |
guardian | never tried | 16:32 |
disq | dont really remember | 16:32 |
MoRpHeUz | konttori: at ukmp you just play videos on fullscreen right ? | 16:33 |
disq | i think i couldn't get it to work and used intel target to debug instead | 16:33 |
konttori | yeah | 16:33 |
konttori | using mplayer | 16:33 |
konttori | basically just a call to mplayer | 16:33 |
tigert | guardian: they come with the device anyway | 16:34 |
tigert | guardian: so what use would they be separately? | 16:34 |
disq | tigert: scratchbox perhaps? | 16:35 |
tigert | well, plankton is imho much nicer theme *cough* | 16:35 |
disq | doesn't it still has the fugly it2005 theme | 16:35 |
tigert | it has plankton afaik | 16:35 |
tigert | at least it will have | 16:35 |
tigert | since the ugly 2005 theme is no more, plankton took its place | 16:35 |
MoRpHeUz | konttori: yeah...I'm having problems playing videos (w/ mplayer) on a given wid (when I go to fullscreen and come back...xv crashes) | 16:35 |
guardian | tigert: checking the look & feel of my app in the sdk | 16:35 |

kulve_ | sure | 16:36 |
konttori | so, the problem is related to one vid? | 16:36 |
konttori | If that is the case, it sounds like it's a crash bug in mplayer | 16:37 |
konttori | and as such, you should contact serge and send the vid to him to test | 16:37 |
*** Ryback_ has joined #maemo | 16:38 | |
MoRpHeUz | konttori: no..any vid...serge talked with dstone sometime ago on maemo-dev about this...serge was saying it was a bug on xv e dstone saying it was on mplayer hehe | 16:38 |

*** saerdnaer has joined #maemo | 16:38 | |
tigert | guardian: but yea, currently they are part of the branding and thus not part of the sdk | 16:38 |
konttori | ahh... sounds nasty. which firmware do you have? | 16:38 |
MoRpHeUz | konttori: the fact is that if you run mplayer and go to fullscreen and go back it doesnt crash...but if you give a xid with -wid then we have the problem =( | 16:38 |

konttori | -wid ... what's that? | 16:39 |

ajturner | erstazi: why would it be diff't the third time I gry? | 18:41 |
ajturner | try | 18:41 |
erstazi | ajturner, there might be a method to this madness! | 18:41 |
erstazi | haha | 18:41 |
ajturner | you haven't explained a method yet | 18:42 |
erstazi | I am assuming you tried this: N800: Now plug in the charger to switch on the N800 or switch it on using the power button WHILE holding the Home-butto | 18:42 |
erstazi | s/Home-butto/Home-button | 18:42 |
ajturner | yes, assuming the home button is the one with the icon of the house on it | 18:42 |
erstazi | yes | 18:43 |
ajturner | there, 6 times - no change | 18:43 |
erstazi | hmm | 18:43 |
erstazi | ajturner, you have a mac? do you have windows? | 18:44 |

*** OgMaciel has joined #maemo | 18:44 | |
ajturner | erstazi: I have all 3 - however, the only instructions referring to 2007 use the Flasher-3.0 which is linux only | 18:45 |
erstazi | ajturner, nokia's website has a windows flasher | 18:45 |
erstazi | maemo is where the linux flasher is | 18:45 |

tso | im impressed by the number of protocols that pidgin supports | 19:27 |
erstazi | tso, yeah, I still use gaim | 19:27 |
erstazi | xterm? | 19:28 |
_Monkey | xterm is the enhanced version of osso-xterm from maemo-hackers. It adds font and color selection support, URL opening through context menu, and a sidebar with additional keys such as Ctrl+letters. http://maemo.org/downloads/product/osso-xterm-advanced | 19:28 |
erstazi | tso, if you get that xterm installed, then becomeroot | 19:28 |
erstazi | then you can edit the /etc/apt/sources.list | 19:28 |
erstazi | ok, links and links2 work | 19:31 |

*** RobHu has joined #maemo | 20:46 | |
RobHu | Is there a howto somewhere on how to use the flasher to put the 2007 OS on a SD card in the N800? I already have a boot menu thing to ask if I want to boot from flash or internal ram. | 20:47 |
milhouse | putting os 2007 on sd is pretty much the same as putting os 2006 on mmc | 20:48 |
RobHu | I can't remember what switch I need for the flasher | 20:49 |
RobHu | to say use the internal mmc | 20:49 |
milhouse | i thought you said you had the boot menu installed? | 20:49 |
RobHu | I did that *ages* ago when the n800 came out ;-) | 20:49 |
RobHu | My memory is not so good | 20:49 |
*** gomiam has joined #maemo | 20:50 | |
RobHu | milhouse: Do you know how to do it? | 20:51 |
milhouse | the flasher way or boot menu way? | 20:51 |
RobHu | errr | 20:51 |
RobHu | I have the boot menu | 20:51 |
RobHu | and I just got a new sd card | 20:51 |
RobHu | I was hoping I could use the flasher to put the OS on the flash card and walk away | 20:51 |
milhouse | if you have the boot menu, choose the 3rd option down | 20:51 |
milhouse | no, that won't work | 20:51 |
*** William_1 has joined #maemo | 20:52 | |
milhouse | you can't install the OS on to the SD card using flasher | 20:52 |
RobHu | the third option is flash card (internal) | 20:52 |
RobHu | ah | 20:52 |
RobHu | I need to go out fairly soon so I'll just flash it normally and worry about making it work on the internal sd card later | 20:52 |

guardian | do you use xnvserver on the device ? i find it slow :( | 21:17 |
erstazi | guardian, I have used it before | 21:17 |
erstazi | I used vncviewer | 21:17 |
erstazi | and xvncserver is ok to view the tablet from a pc | 21:17 |
erstazi | the server lets a remote connection to view whats on the tablet | 21:18 |
erstazi | the vncviewer lets you view other desktops and use | 21:18 |
guardian | i'm running this server on the tablet http://mike.saunby.googlepages.com/x11vncfornokia7702 | 21:18 |
guardian | but it's a bit slow | 21:18 |
erstazi | yes | 21:19 |
erstazi | are you connecting to the tablet from a pc? | 21:19 |
guardian | i wonder if it's because of wifi or because the n800 is not powerful enough | 21:19 |
guardian | yeah from a pc | 21:19 |
erstazi | what client are you using on the pc? | 21:19 |
guardian | what comes with ubuntu :) | 21:19 |
guardian | just typed vncviewer in command line | 21:19 |
erstazi | ok | 21:19 |
guardian | would usb network be faster than wifi ? | 21:19 |
erstazi | what ip address are you connecting to? | 21:19 |
erstazi | guardian, no | 21:19 |
guardian | the ip of the n800 | 21:19 |
erstazi | are you using wireless G or B? | 21:19 |
erstazi | yes | 21:20 |
guardian | it's registered in dhcp | 21:20 |
guardian | so i just type vncviewer n800 | 21:20 |
erstazi | ok | 21:20 |
*** gomiam has joined #maemo | 21:20 | |
erstazi | what you might need to do is change the color depth and the resolution | 21:20 |
erstazi | what screen resolution did you choose? | 21:20 |
guardian | where ? | 21:20 |
*** qnr has quit IRC | 21:20 | |
erstazi | the color depth can be 8 and not 16 or whatever the n800 has | 21:20 |
erstazi | guardian, Applications > Internet > Terminal Server Client | 21:21 |
guardian | i changed nothing to the server, since it's just clicking extras>x11vnc | 21:21 |
erstazi | guardian, you have to change the settings in the client | 21:21 |
guardian | ok | 21:21 |
erstazi | a color depth of 16 or 24 is a lot to transfer | 21:21 |
guardian | testing | 21:22 |
*** qnr has joined #maemo | 21:22 | |
*** zwnj has joined #maemo | 21:23 | |
guardian | well not that better | 21:23 |
guardian | screen refresh is still slugish | 21:23 |
erstazi | let me try some settings | 21:24 |
erstazi | do you have rdesktop installed? | 21:24 |
guardian | specially when the mouse is moving fast | 21:24 |
guardian | yes i guess so | 21:24 |
erstazi | guardian, sudo apt-get install rdesktop on your ubunu | 21:25 |
erstazi | s/ubunu/ubuntu | 21:25 |
guardian | it's installed | 21:25 |
erstazi | ok | 21:26 |
erstazi | I believe thats the same as the Terminal Server client | 21:26 |
erstazi | but I am going to give you a command | 21:26 |
*** ajturner has quit IRC | 21:27 | |
erstazi | guardian, rdesktop -u YOURUSERNAME -g 800x480 -e -b IPADDRESS | 21:28 |
erstazi | anything in caps need changed to your settings | 21:28 |
erstazi | you can change IPADDRESS to n800 | 21:29 |
erstazi | it should work | 21:29 |
*** Hyperion|n800 has joined #maemo | 21:29 | |
guardian | i don't have rdesktop server on the device | 21:30 |
erstazi | you don't need it | 21:30 |

guardian | doesn't work | 21:30 |
erstazi | rdesktop -u YOURUSERNAME -p YOUPASSWORD -g 800x480 -e -b IPADDRESS | 21:30 |
erstazi | I forgot -p | 21:30 |
guardian | with vncviewer i don't need any user/pass | 21:31 |
erstazi | ah | 21:31 |
erstazi | hmmm | 21:31 |
erstazi | I don't run vncviewer through terminal on ubuntu, I use the actual GUI | 21:32 |
erstazi | and it should have settings to alter the color depth and resolution | 21:32 |
guardian | well | 21:32 |
erstazi | also if force bitmap updates is set | 21:32 |
guardian | with terminal server client | 21:32 |
guardian | i don't need to specify user pass as well | 21:32 |

erstazi | if you can get the display colors or color depth down to 8 (it will only be 256 colors then) you will see an improvement | 21:40 |

*** amr__ has joined #maemo | 22:09 | |

erstazi | zaf, you can teach it your handwriting, its pretty good implementation | 22:10 |
zaf | if it can learn my handwriting, it's smarter than me | 22:10 |
erstazi | zaf, I have a syndrome called doctor's handwriting | 22:10 |
erstazi | but I am not a doctor | 22:10 |
zaf | yeah, my grandfather was a Dr, and i inherited that trait from him | 22:10 |
erstazi | also you can ssh to it or vnc to your nokia | 22:11 |
zaf | nice | 22:11 |
zaf | hoping to use it as an ssh client mostly | 22:11 |
zaf | is the 800 just faster? | 22:11 |
erstazi | zaf, if you buy one, I have a pretty decent sources.list and there are many apps we can suggest to you to download and install | 22:11 |
zaf | cool | 22:12 |
erstazi | zaf, I would assume it is, especially being a newer model a year and a half later | 22:12 |
zaf | is it a usb host, or just device? | 22:13 |

erstazi | timeless, want me to make it appear there haaha | 22:20 |
timeless | erstazi: you can't find it either :) | 22:21 |
X-Fade | Is there anyone with a IT-2005 OS Nokia 770 still around? I need something tested :) | 22:22 |
timeless | x-fade: um, i have access to a bunch of 770s | 22:22 |
timeless | i can flash... | 22:22 |
X-Fade | timeless: Just need the browser identification string :) | 22:22 |
timeless | hrm, um | 22:23 |
timeless | i might be able to cheat on that | 22:23 |
X-Fade | I have a few 770's but they are all 2006.. | 22:23 |
erstazi | https://bugs.maemo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=hildon ? | 22:23 |
trevarthan | milhouse, if you're around, you might be interested in this: https://www.guardiani.us/projects/kagu/changeset/317 | 22:23 |
milhouse | hello | 22:24 |
milhouse | really? | 22:25 |
milhouse | do you mean that change or another one? | 22:25 |
*** eichi has joined #maemo | 22:25 | |
trevarthan | milhouse: that one. speeds up AVRCP commands. | 22:26 |
timeless | how complete does it need to be? :) | 22:27 |
milhouse | ah, cool | 22:27 |
timeless | Mozilla/%s (%s; U) Opera 8.02 | 22:27 |
milhouse | that's forward/back via the bluetooth headset? | 22:27 |
trevarthan | milhouse: yeah, and pause. | 22:27 |
milhouse | i'll have to give that a go... will that be in kagu 1.0.3? | 22:27 |
trevarthan | sure will. | 22:27 |
timeless | that's from pe2 | 22:27 |
trevarthan | milhouse: hopefully we'll release this Sunday. | 22:27 |
milhouse | marvelous. did you see serge has released a new mplayer with jpg/png/alsa support? | 22:27 |

* timeless is having trouble finding flashes | 22:28 | |
X-Fade | timeless: I think the only thing I need is the browser number.. | 22:28 |
trevarthan | milhouse: yeah, I instigated that. | 22:28 |
timeless | so the 8.02 is sufficient? | 22:28 |
ajturner | interesting, someone from Dallas is trying to hack into my itt forum account | 22:28 |
X-Fade | timeless: like 0.4.31 or 0.4.34 | 22:28 |
timeless | x-fade: is that from the ui? | 22:29 |
trevarthan | milhouse: slowly working toward making A2DP easy for people on the n800. :) | 22:29 |
milhouse | cool - let me know when/if any script changes are required and i'll update my a2dp-for-dummies install script | 22:29 |
X-Fade | timeless: Nope.. those 2 were 2006. | 22:29 |
X-Fade | timeless: yeah, I guess so. | 22:29 |
trevarthan | milhouse: does your script install mplayer? | 22:29 |
X-Fade | timeless: Both are Opera 8.02 | 22:29 |
milhouse | trevarthan: yes, it will | 22:29 |
X-Fade | An I think 2005 had 8.02 also? | 22:29 |
trevarthan | OK. Well, that mplayer release will hit maemo.org soon, if it hasn't already. You'll need to make sure the user has at least version .18 | 22:30 |
timeless | so it seems | 22:30 |
milhouse | trevarthan: but assuming you can use the latest version from serge i'll update it to check the version and install only if necessary | 22:30 |
timeless | i'm just using edit.com on libopera.so :) | 22:30 |
timeless | it was faster than trying to find the download site :) | 22:30 |
trevarthan | milhouse: yeah. I'll be removing the binary from my site in a few days. | 22:30 |
milhouse | trevarthan: i guess mplayer should be pulled from garage rather than your site? | 22:30 |
trevarthan | milhouse: should be pulled from maemo.org, not garage. once it hits maemo.org, that is. | 22:31 |
* timeless tries running the flasher | 22:31 | |
milhouse | trevarthan - yes, that makes life easier... can remove the wget mplayer-* entirely | 22:32 |
trevarthan | it's too bad AVRCP doesn't include seek commands. that would be handy | 22:32 |
X-Fade | timeless: I doubt that there are many people still on OS2005, but ... | 22:33 |
timeless | ok, flashing | 22:33 |
_Monkey | flashing is headache enough, why make it worse | 22:33 |
timeless | it'll take 2mins | 22:33 |
*** UKP has quit IRC | 22:34 | |

X-Fade | timeless: Hmm strange.. 2006 doesn't mention the exact flash version, but 2007 and 2005 do? Weird.. | 22:42 |
timeless | consistency is a virtue | 22:42 |
X-Fade | timeless: this is a mistral one: | 22:43 |

sparrw | what kind of streams can the maemo audio player play? | 22:43 |
sparrw | is there a good list i can get somewhere? | 22:43 |
*** bilboed has quit IRC | 22:43 | |
timeless | url visited? | 22:44 |
milhouse | sparrw - nokia.com? | 22:44 |
milhouse | sparrw - i think the various formats are listed in the tech specs for both 770 and n800 | 22:44 |
erstazi | X-Fade, do you mean macromedia flash? | 22:45 |
timeless | "flash" usually refers to flash memory | 22:45 |
timeless | to flash is to rewrite the flash memory w/ alternate system software | 22:45 |
timeless | flash is a semi persistent storage | 22:45 |
erstazi | timeless, depends on the context | 22:45 |
timeless | erstazi: assuming the context is the one between x-fade and me atm :) | 22:46 |
erstazi | timeless, I suppose so (: | 22:46 |
