IRC log of #maemo for Wednesday, 2007-08-08

Dea1hey - estazi - many thanks - although ill probably be back on here again regularly00:00
erstaziDea1, I try, I am new to scratchbox myself00:00
erstaziDea1, I think if a few more people contribute, then more people will be jumping on getting these tablets (:00:01
Dea1quick qestion - do these binaries include the nokia emulator or is that a separate install?00:01
erstazimmm I am not sure about that, I read about the emulator and what not00:01
erstaziI believe the devkit is that, but I haven't gotten further than that00:01
erstaziDea1, all I know is, I was following this part: http://www.scratchbox.org/documentation/user/scratchbox-1.0/html/installdoc.html#cctarget00:02
Dea1yeah - 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 move00:03

erstazihyph_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

Dea1just 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_nDea1: i just got mine from there00:20
Dea1:) ok then00:20
hyph_nIf you search you can get a 770 + 1GB rsmmc for only a few quid more..!00:21

erstaziDea1, buy.com has it for 63 guid00:21
hyph_nPlay.com also have them00:21
Dea1bought one for my girlfriend too - she loves it (which is strange cos she hates technology)00:21
hyph_n:-)00:21
erstazimy wife is jealous of my nokia00:22
Dea1is buy.com us based?00:22
erstazishe won't admit it, but I see it in her eyes00:22
hyph_nloving the screen - makes a great ebook reader!00:22
erstaziDea1, you might have to pay a customs tax I am not sure00:22

Dea1just finished downloading all the other packages erstazi - quick q why two devkits - debian and maemo???00:23

erstaziif you have OS2006 I believe you have maemo2, but I could be wrong00:23
erstazior is it maemo3?00:24
erstaziDea1, if you look in synaptic and search for scratchbox, you will see all the debs you can install00:24

erstaziDea1, btw00:25
erstaziI 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
erstaziI think this is what both 770/n800 are lacking and of my knowledge, there is not an app for maemo/arm00:27
Dea1oo er - might be over my head - im an ex game programmer - but yeah keep me update - if anything itll help to re-rust my skills00:27
hyph_nbugger! - it looks like expansys have stopped selling the n770 (or have run out)00:27
hyph_nlooks like i won't be getting an exchange then...!00:27
hyph_n:-(00:27
erstazihyph_n, talk to nokia directly00:27
Dea1you can get ir repared under warranty???00:27
*** Tu13es has quit IRC00:27
derfI thought CMU's speech engine was already ported.00:28

Dea1what ebook viewer do you use erstazi - and what respository00:28
*** greentux has joined #maemo00:29

Dea1cheers  thx for that00:29
derfhttp://users.tkk.fi/~tnikkila/maemo/flite/00:30
erstazianyone 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 working00:30
erstaziI use fbreader though00:30
erstazinice app00:30
hyph_nty :-)00:30
erstazialso, make sure you back up your sources.list just in case00:30
Dea1ok!00:30
hyph_ni guess i need to get my head around this whole blue/red pill thingy00:30
erstaziwhen you get that sources.list inputted, you can go to your application manager and refresh the catalogue and then install whatever you need00:31
erstazihyph_n, its real easy, you know how to do it?00:31
Dea1hey - 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 IRC00:31

erstazihyph_n, application manager > Tools > Application Catalogue then click new and type in the web address matrix and hit cancel00:33
erstazithen you will have a choice between red pill and blue pill00:33
erstaziand then make sure you do your updates00:34
hyph_nwow00:34
hyph_nwhat is the difference between red and blue?00:34
erstaziits a cheap hack they put into the nokias... they are "suppose" to be putting it in a settings for advanced users00:34

alehandronot correctrtly ... jawbone is formulated ;)))01:01
alteregoAnyone else really wish they could copy and paste between their N800 and other computers?01:01
erstazipersonally, I think English is a horrible language and even worse international language... it should not be an international language at all01:01
*** Yamazaki-kun has quit IRC01:01
alteregoEnglish isn't that bad. There's a lot of bloat but it is quite expressive.01:01
erstazialterego, the only way I know of is ssh or instant message01:01
alteregoObviously I'm biased though. Being English and all ^_^01:01
*** guardian has quit IRC01:02
erstaziwell, I see both sides... but it is expressive in some areas but in other areas very lacking01:02
alteregoWhere?01:03
erstazithere is not a perfect language...01:03
alteregoNo, and there won't likely ever be one.01:03
erstazialterego, take the verb "love" for instance01:03
alteregoYou have issue with love? :D01:03
erstaziyou can love your mother and father... you can love your neighbor, you can love your wife01:03
alehandroenglish is relatively simple that other west-european languages, and our customers speak also english, although they are germans01:03
alteregoerstazi, so?01:04
erstazialterego, just an example (:01:04
alteregoalterego, you have a problem with loving thy neighbour?01:04
erstaziheh01:04
alteregoerstazi, ^^01:04
erstazi[18:04] <erstazi> alterego, just an example (:01:04
alehandrothey have bad english, and we... and we understand each other01:05
alteregoAre you saying that 'love' isn't expressive enough?01:05
alteregoI agree that the word can mean different kinds of love.01:05
alteregoBut then, what is love?01:05
erstazialterego, 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 English01:05
alteregoerstazi, I'm not being defensive :)01:05
alteregoThere are plenty of words in the English language I think are pointless.01:06
erstazialterego, in many other languages, they have different verbs for the different meanings of the English word "love"01:06
Dea1Meine deutsch ist nich so gut :)01:06
alteregoBut for the most part I really like the language.01:06
erstaziDea1, haha01:06
alteregoDea1, das ist nicht so gut, es tut meir lied.01:06
*** matt_c has quit IRC01:06
erstazialterego, well, I am more coming from the fact of a non-native speaker learning English01:06
Dea1ja - sehr gut, nicht :)01:07
erstaziits a hard language to learn compared to other languages out there01:07
alteregoerstazi, yeah. I hear that's hard.01:07
*** vivijim has joined #maemo01:07
erstaziI just find those who take on learning English deserve credit, its a difficult language01:07
alteregoerstazi, 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
erstazioh definitely01:08
erstazieven within the UK itself01:08
alteregoYah, I know.01:08
alteregoI even have a hard t ime keeping up with all the slang ^_^01:08
erstaziso many different dialects in England01:08

alteregoI've been using my N800 for Rails development whilst in the bath. It's quite relaxing ^_^01:09
erstaziDea1, I stayed there but not lived01:10
alehandroerstazi, Are there sometime old maemo developers? Did you know? My question remains open ;(01:10
erstaziI wanted to move to London01:10
alteregoCambridge is awesome. If not a bit small.01:10
Dea1your N800 is in the bath, is it nice and clean then? mmaybe a way to keep the screen free from smudges!!01:10
erstazialehandro, there are a few, pupnik is one01:10
erstaziI hate smudges01:10
erstaziand hate is a strong word01:10
Dea1Cambridge is nice, London is horrible - dirty, crowded.01:11
erstazialehandro, I am sticking my porting and packaging to the 770 because thats what have and there are quite a few with a 77001:11
alteregoI was here when maemo first started. But I stopped my envolvment with the community until pretty recently.01:11
erstaziDea1, I was in milton keynes for a month01:11
Dea1never mind - im sure you got over it :)01:12
erstaziwhats that?01:12
alteregoI've been back literally just over a month. Been working on Ruby-Maemo port and bindings :)01:12
alehandroerstazi, the morning I spoke with him. he also did not know how to solve the problem, because preparing for n80001:12
erstaziah01:12
erstazialterego, I don't mind RoR, it is a bright star, but python is looking bright also01:13
alteregoI actually started coding in Python before Ruby.01:13
erstazialehandro, I am not too sure who all are old maemo developers.. I wish I had a list01:14
alteregoI found Ruby to be a lot more flexible. It's so much nicer :)01:14
erstazialterego, it is very flexible and nice01:14
erstazihow well does ruby work with existing databases?01:14
alteregoFine.01:15
erstazimaybe I heard FUD, who knows01:15
alteregoYou just specify the connection information database name and then the table name.01:15
alehandroerstazi, 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
erstaziI take everything in with a grain of salt01:15
erstazialehandro, well, I appreciate what you do01:16
erstazialehandro, what applications do you have out?01:16
alteregoerstazi, 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 #maemo01:16
erstazialterego, that is probably so, and that would be FUD then haha01:16
erstazihello mazzen01:16
mazzenhello erstazi01:17
erstazihow are you mazzen?01:17
erstazialehandro, I think there is a list of developers on maemo.org but I could be wrong01:17
alteregoThere 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 IRC01:18

erstazigood mazzen, tired though (:01:19
alteregoI 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

MobileSimSoftware-wise, I meant. :p02:08
sp3000it 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

JesseT78The N770 device is meant to be part of a radio testing tool03:26
JesseT78so it needs to connect, ideally via usb, to a keyboard, but also to an ethernet dongle and a gps transciever03:27
JesseT78In 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

timelyxJesseT78: so have you gotten a powered usb hub and solder hacked it to work as required?03:32
JesseT78They 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
JesseT78timelyx: I've got a powered usb hub and wired up a USB Y cable so as not to have to break into the hub itself03:34
erstaziJesseT78, you aren't in the US are you?03:34
JesseT78The 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

DarksmurfHello. 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 are04:25
JesseT78Hola Dark. :)04:26
JesseT78I've just been playing with SSH on os2005 (I think that's my os?) today, no problems there04:27
DarksmurfAlso, 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
JesseT78To 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 though04:27
DarksmurfJesseT78 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
JesseT78dark: 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
Darksmurfexactly...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, etc04:29
JesseT78darksmurf: 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
DarksmurfI think it would be useful for car trips, etc.04:30
DarksmurfYeah, thats what I understand.04:30
JesseT78Sounds 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
DarksmurfAfter 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
DarksmurfThe only results I can find are related to setting up a desktop as a router for the tablet.04:32
JesseT78darksmurf 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
DarksmurfI 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
JesseT78Yeah I am just glad I don't have to travel a road like that ;)04:34
DarksmurfJesseT78 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 included04:34

JesseT78ooer04:34
Darksmurfpupnik nice :-)04:34
Darksmurfthanks04:34
Darksmurfpupnik: what happens w/ 'iptables -L' ?04:35
DarksmurfJesseT78 how long have you had your tablet?04:36
JesseT78Darksmurf 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 cable04:36
JesseT78Now I am just having trouble making that part work as advertised.04:37
Darksmurfis it just not working? or is it intermitent?04:37
JesseT78Asuming that is somehow our fault, I have had pretty much no things to be dissapointed about by the device. It is marvelous. :)04:37
JesseT78Our 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
DarksmurfOf course, not having a tablet I can't be much use, and am basicly talking out of my *$#, but... Have you tried 'dmesg'? From what I've seen you should see mention of the hub being connected, and then the keyboard. I seem to remember reading somewhere that it didn't work right if you had USB plugged in when the device booted.04:40
JesseT78The guys here on the channel want me to install sysklogd so's I can see some USB log goodness. That is among the subgoals I am accomplishing now, I shall try dmesg as well04:41
pupnikDarksmurf: normal iptables behavior04:42
JesseT78The system does run on top of unix and it is no more than smoke and mirrors to get Xterminal and root and just live in unix land. It is #@$%ing awexome :)04:42
pupnikNokia770-49:~# dmesg |wc -l  17504:43
JesseT78yep, I have got me some dmesg04:44
JesseT78Another thing I just did is wandered through the connection manager and set myself a static ip04:44
JesseT78device 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
pupniki just leave a ping running from desktop to 77004:45
DarksmurfI'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 involvin04:45
Darksmurfthe words 'nokia 770 keyboard' and I had found a perfect device04:45

erstaziwhich I am not sure how successful that would be04:59
pupnikthere 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_hmm07:02
pupnik_for the standard mount options on vfat see /etc/fstab07:03
nchntrok ill try that, what about fstab i have tried with user option there (i copied the oem mmc1 line item and modified path and changed nouser to user07:03
pupnik_you can create an fstab entry with similar options for your usb hard drive07:03
nchntri did all that, fstab changes dont seem to work07:03
pupnik_hrm07:03
nchntrafter chmod on fstab to write then using both vi and text editor (leafpad) finally got changes to stay boot to boot, but doesnt seem to be having an affect, i still hafta mount with mount command07:04
nchntrwhats the syntax for the mount command with user option enabled07:05
pupnik_you are on territory not many people have been on07:05
pupnik_i duno - mount has a big man page :)07:05

erstazipeople spoke of it but I don't recall anyone talking about an existing working external hard drive07:08
Darksmurfnchntr dumb question...did you umount the HD and remount after changes to fstab? lets say you had it mounted as /mnt/hd  you would umount /mnt/hd  then mount /mnt/hd . If you just specify the mount mount, mount will look in fstab for settings07:08
Darksmurferr.. 'the mount mount' should be ..'mount point'07:08

erstaziwb dolske you iphone user! haha07:09
pupnik_mount -t vfat -o user /dev/sda5 /media/usbhd5  << does that work?07:09
sparrto use an external hard drive you need the usb hack/dongle, no?07:10
dolskeheh, I should remove that. I put in in a few weeks before the iPhone launch to confuse people. :)07:10
Darksmurfdolske ??07:11
pupnik_you could also try specifying the owner of the filesystem to be the regular nokia user "user" with userid (UID) 29999 and groupid (GID) 2999907:12
erstazihello world! got it07:12
nchntrima 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
dolskeDarksmurf: 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
erstazipupnik_, thank you, I missed that emulator part07:12
pupnik_nchntr: shouldn't matter where you mount it07:12
pupnik_yw erstazi07:12
Darksmurfmount -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 #maemo07:13
* Darksmurf is looking to see if 'user' is the correct option07:13
* Darksmurf thinks 'man fstab' would have more info07:14
pupnik_setting the userid might solve it.  here the defaults on the 770 mmc vfat:  /dev/mmcblk0p1  /media/mmc1 vfat rw,noauto,nodev,noexec,nosuid,utf8,uid=29999 0 007:14
nchntris 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
nchntryea i copied that line, but removed the ,utf8,uid=29999  (wasnt sure if ther are device specific (RS-MMC)07:15
pupnik_the uid could help07:15
pupnik_that's the other thing yes07:15

erstazisaaib, even though I have a few google accounts already (:08:31

saaiberstazi, lol, well you got to do whatever you got to do to get it cheaper08:31
erstaziwhat about speech to text? any open source and light weight and easily hildonized?08:32
erstazisaaib, sometimes, I did the free shipping and it came in 3 days, when they said 5-8 days08:32
erstaziso I was happy08:32
trevarthanyeah, gonna do this ticket soon. like. tomorrow: https://www.guardiani.us/projects/kagu/ticket/2608:32
pupnikerstazi, i only know of the CMU Sphinx Group Open Source Speech Recognition Engines.08:32
erstaziI am looking to port a speech to text08:32
milhouseah just posted a comment on itt for you mr. trevarthan08:33
trevarthanerstazi: check out the voxforge project.08:33
nchntri got a 1gig RS-MMC from surpluscomputers.com <$20 fwiw08:33
trevarthanerstazi: they use the Julius engine. it's better than CMU, IMO.08:33

saaiberstazi, I've been checking a lot the status of the shipment.08:33
Darksmurfnchntr thanks for the link08:34
trevarthanmilhouse: oh no. you aren't yelling at me for my crappy looking Kagu UI too, are you?08:34

erstazifor trevarthan08:34
unique311long time ago..08:34

saaibmhh. I tried one speech recon software along with the firecracker (X10) a couple years ago... I'll try to get the reference from my old pc08:34
milhousebut i am a bit concerned about how the ui eats cpu cycles all the time :(08:34
unique311just have to make new icons08:34
unique311bluetooth icons08:35
erstazihaha08:35
milhousetrevarthan: i think you mentioned something about pygame being the culprit...08:35
trevarthanmilhouse: valid question. I'll explain in the thread.08:35
milhousetrevarthan: ta. hopefully something can be done about it in the long term, the ui stealing cycles from a2dp (or other activities) is a bit of a bummer not really the "nokia internet tablet" way08:36
Abulafiatrev, im sorry, i dont know why, but i cant replicate my error with the scanner08:36
Abulafiait didnt work when i wanted to demo it, and then when i wanted it to not work...08:37
*** Abulafia is now known as Luria08:37
nchntrok this doesnt make sense... where can i add a mount command line to some kinda startup08:41
saaibnchntr, what about fstab?08:41
nchntrit 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
pupnikin 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 connected08:42
nchntrim starting to agree, but the MMC technically isnt always there either08:42
saaibnchntr, what about autofs?08:42
nchntri have /dev/mmcblk0p2 as the 2nd part. on my MMC it is ext208:43
nchntrit gets mounted but not in the fstab (or am i looking at the wrong fstab?)08:43
saaibnchntr, mounted devices should be shown in mtab08:44
saaibcat /etc/mtab08:44
DarksmurfI think the kernel can tell when a card has been inserted and removed. It can tell when the cover is open.08:44
*** qgil has joined #maemo08:44
nchntrwhere else can i mount a device without using fstab08:44
nchntris there a startup sequence file or something08:44
nchntrscript?08:45
saaibnchntr, /etc/rc.local ?08:45
sparrmaemo mapper is going to sell me a bluetooth gps unit...08:45
saaibnchntr,  you might want to write a script to check up availability of the usb device before trying to mount it08:45
nchntrwhere would i put that script?  idk linux well08:46
trevarthanmilhouse: check the thread. response posted.08:47
saaibnchntr, 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.local08:47
milhousetrevarthan: checking... :)08:47
trevarthanmilhouse: 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
nchntrcant find /etc/rc.local08:48
trevarthanmilhouse: short term, well, I describe that in the thread.08:48
milhousewhat other alternatives are there to pygame?08:48
trevarthanmilhouse: 3, currently, that I'm aware of08:49
trevarthanmilhouse: 1.) GTK08:49
trevarthanmilhouse: 2.) EFL (Canola will be using this in the next release)08:49
trevarthanmilhouse: 3.) Web interface and javascript/AJAX. I'm not opposed to this either.08:49
trevarthanerm...08:50
trevarthanmilhouse: 4.) CLI frontend.08:50
milhousetrevarthan: some options then, but i guess a significant amount of retooling?08:51
trevarthanI 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
nchntralright time for some ZzZ's im outtie, thanks for everyons help and suggestions tomorrow is another day08:51
trevarthanyeah. retooling is a good word for it.08:51
milhousetrevarthan: sounds fair enough... see how efl looks in canola08:51
milhousewhat about the openmoko widgets - they were gtk weren't they (i install the demo, seemed ok)08:52
*** nchntr has quit IRC08:52
Darksmurf2 hours 4min to unpack vmware image...4.17GB08:53
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
trevarthanI'm not 100% sure about that. I *think* they're GTK widgets.08:53
trevarthanmilhouse: you saw how the widget became invisible during fast scrolling.08:53
milhousetrevarthan: yes, it certainly wasn't perfect08:54
*** jacques has quit IRC08:54
trevarthanmilhouse: I personally prefer the responsiveness of the pygame scroll widget, but yeah, it'd be nice to try.08:54
trevarthanWe don't need a scroll widget to do a GTK frontend though.08:54
milhousethe 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 position08:54
trevarthanAnd we probably won't have one the first time around.08:54
trevarthanmilhouse: yeah. I call it "snapping".08:55
trevarthanIt's confusing?08:55
Darksmurfso 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
milhousenot confusing, but erm.. unattractive?08:55
trevarthanah.08:55
milhousei'm not sure what to suggest as an alternative, but i wish it didn't do it! :)08:56
trevarthanfunny. some people bitched about the *lack* of snapping on the GTK widget.08:56
milhousei think if you got rid of the OK button, you probably wouldn't need it to snap would you?08:56
pupnikDarksmurf: does the pda device type window have a globe in the upper-left-hand corner?08:57
sparrare there any semi-mature alternate interfaces for the 770?  openbox, gpe, etc?08:57
trevarthanmilhouse: 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
pupnikopenbox works somewhat08:57
milhouseexactly and milhouse will be happy :)08:57
Darksmurfpupnik no, now it has reverted to text console "Reading files needed to boot...."08:57
DarksmurfI guess it was the base OS08:57
unique311trevarthan, not sure if I even come close to being a graphics artist....I like playing with photoshop.08:57
trevarthanmilhouse: 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
unique311been drawing all my life though08:58
milhousetrevarthan: will do my best :)08:58

Darksmurfpupnik 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 IRC09:06

*** MobileSim has joined #maemo09:07

saaibpupnik, 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 odd09:34

guardianthen it's smooth16:30
guardiantigert: yes the official themes, why not providing debs when one can bother taking the files out of the device ?16:31
disqit 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

konttoribasically just a call to mplayer16:33

zafcool22:12
erstazizaf, I would assume it is, especially being a newer model a year and a half later22:12
