tso | so i take it that it may be worth going for 2007he? | 00:03 |
---|---|---|
sparr | its less stable | 00:03 |
sparr | and it has package issues | 00:03 |
tso | well if so then i think ill stay with 2006... | 00:03 |
sparr | the base HE image has a dpkg inconsistency... youd think someone would fix that before packaging it | 00:03 |
tso | im getting the feel that 2207he was made to shut the community up about nokia abandoning the 770 to soon... | 00:04 |
*** Yamazaki-kun has quit IRC | 00:04 | |
pupnik | the 770 community hasn't done much for 2007he | 00:05 |
pupnik | bugreports, development etc | 00:06 |
*** NeoStrider has joined #maemo | 00:06 | |
tso | heh, maybe because its useless with the closed up drivers and all... | 00:06 |
tso | there is also the thing that the 770 was a testbed, not a real consumer device. but with the recent dump of leftover (im guessing thats whats going on) it got a renewed interest from people that passed on if for being to expensive at the time and now was eyeing the N800 | 00:08 |
pupnik | i can understand them being cautious about a new product approach and business model | 00:10 |
pupnik | new OS etc | 00:10 |
roope | It's... ocntinuous development and "a consumer device" are ... well, not always equal. | 00:11 |
pupnik | guardian i think (or was it the register?) had an epic story on Psion (the company) | 00:11 |
roope | A general consumer couldn't care less if the platform is under further development. He buys the device for his current needs. | 00:11 |
pupnik | agree with roope | 00:11 |
guardian | no i don't ! | 00:12 |
guardian | :D | 00:12 |
tso | true that roope. hell, look at non-smartphones. only "recently" have nokia and SE opened for home updating. LG and samsung have yet to do so iirc | 00:12 |
pupnik | heh... :) that's the definition of a product for most biz folks | 00:12 |
pupnik | 'here's what it costs, here's what it does, and this is whom we sell it to' | 00:13 |
sparr | tso: the recent dump was how i got one, and my boss got one, and our office got 6 :) | 00:13 |
sparr | the 770 at $500 wasnt really a great device | 00:13 |
sparr | at $130... pretty spiffy | 00:13 |
tso | also, what does the N800 provide that a phone cant to a consumer? better web? sorry, but for that one need to use the mobile network to fully use. and the operators there wants to bleed the users dry... | 00:13 |
tso | i know sparr, thats how i got one to | 00:14 |
sparr | plenty of carriers provide unlimited data plans | 00:14 |
tso | maybe so sparr | 00:14 |
roope | unlimited data is coming in a big way really soon. | 00:14 |
roope | (at least in Europe) | 00:15 |
tso | im not holding my breath | 00:15 |
tso | that depends on what part of europe one live it... | 00:15 |
pupnik | about 45 euro/month for me here for quasi-unlimited | 00:15 |
roope | Elisa (in Finland) is offering unlimited 384kbit data for 10 euros per month. | 00:15 |
roope | That's a pretty good deal. | 00:15 |
tso | my only hope is that someone manage to port webkit or gecko to the 770. opera is driving me ever so slightly nuts | 00:16 |
*** juco2 has quit IRC | 00:16 | |
pupnik | is that opera's fault? | 00:16 |
sparr | i think 2008 is the year of the open handheld/phone | 00:17 |
tso | i dont know pupnik, i dont know | 00:17 |
pupnik | lets hope intel doesn't screw it up | 00:17 |
sparr | n800, openmoko, minione, etc | 00:18 |
pupnik | i don't either tso - i found some things worked better in 2007he - waiting for the next release | 00:18 |
tso | ok, nice to know. how is the ajax performance with HE? some pages seems to crawl to a halt... | 00:19 |
tso | openmoko is interesting as they at least seems determined to use as much open drivers as they can get away with | 00:19 |
pupnik | i instinctively avoid those kinds of tites | 00:19 |
pupnik | sites | 00:19 |
tso | so as long as the hardware works people may update it | 00:19 |
pupnik | hmm 'bloated tites' | 00:19 |
tso | heh, same way one at one time would avoid flash and java "enabled" sites? | 00:20 |
tso | but, back to the anime | 00:20 |

sparr | tso: standalone flash player? | 02:07 |
tso | more like a standalone youtube player | 02:07 |
tso | ukmp comes bundled with uktube. a app thats able to take a youtube page url, extract the video, and store it onto the device. then if you have mplayer installed you can fire up mplayer to play the video. | 02:08 |
tso | i have used it with good results. but be warned that uktube is touchy about the connection and will basically hang if it has problems downloading... | 02:09 |
tso | i think this is a similar solution to what archos did on their 605wifi media player. as it to can play youtube videos, but only outside the opera browser... | 02:10 |

tso | go look for ukmp, its budled with that | 02:39 |

tso | that may be one problem, to find out about all the available solutions... | 02:41 |
nchntr | can anyone tell me how to get a folder from root to user (owner?) permissions | 02:43 |
tso | chmod in xterm? | 02:43 |
nchntr | im trying to get a USB Harddrive mounted in maemo | 02:43 |
tso | no wait, chown | 02:43 |
nchntr | it wont let me | 02:43 |
nchntr | i have be messing with this for almost all day.. | 02:43 |
saaib | nchntr, try to umount the usb drive as root and the mount it as the user | 02:44 |
tso | hmm, mount options? dont need to be owned by user if the umask is set correctly iirc | 02:44 |
nchntr | i create the folders usbhda5 through maemo filemanager, that makes it a drwxr-xr-x user users folder permissions | 02:46 |
nchntr | i then xterm, sudo gainroot, then mv it to /media/ (my mount location) | 02:46 |
nchntr | that works fine | 02:46 |
nchntr | still has user users permissions.. i then ln -s /media/usbhda5 /home/user/MyDocs | 02:47 |
nchntr | i get a folder there still with user users permissions i can see from maemo apps, i can even mkdir and save to | 02:48 |
nchntr | i clear that out and in a root term i mount -t vfat /dev/usbhda5 /media/usbhda5 | 02:49 |
nchntr | then the dir goes to root root permissions | 02:49 |
*** mmlj4 has joined #maemo | 02:49 | |
nchntr | i am assuming i need to chmod back to user or users? and what would the switches be? | 02:49 |
*** hendryx has quit IRC | 02:50 | |
tso | hmm, slap "-0 uid=user" (no quotes) or something on the mount command | 02:50 |
mmlj4 | so what's the deal? what is the latest OS I can put on my 770? or can/should I apt-get dist-upgrade instead? | 02:51 |
sp3000 | -o usually, no? | 02:51 |
*** vmarks has quit IRC | 02:51 | |
tso | crap wrong key and didnt notice :P | 02:52 |
tso | thanks sp3000 | 02:52 |
mmlj4 | s the 2007 hacker edition what I want? | 02:52 |
nchntr | so something like mount -t vfat -o uid=user /dev/sda5 /media/usbhda5 | 02:53 |
nchntr | invalid arguement | 02:54 |
tso | ah, silly me, it wants the numeric one... | 02:57 |
sp3000 | it probably wants a numeric uid | 02:57 |
nchntr | hmm ok i used uid=29999 (like the mmc1 uses) that worked, but now dir permissions are user root | 02:57 |
tso | maybe go with umask=777 instead? or would that remove all permissions? i allways forget as the umask thing is very "backwards"... | 02:58 |
nchntr | sweet that did it.. the uid=29999 | 02:59 |
nchntr | yeah.. now i have rw access to my ext drives... now to get them to work in fstab or to find a script executer... | 02:59 |
nchntr | opening a terminal and gaining root and command mounting them will be a pita everytime | 03:00 |
tso | leafpad fstab? | 03:00 |
tso | i guess the problem then is, do they mount in the same place all the time? | 03:00 |
nchntr | i have tried that dozens of times, it doesnt work | 03:01 |
nchntr | the information is there but the mount isnt | 03:01 |
nchntr | i even copied the line for the mmc1 and changed paths and (so the spacing will be the same) no affect | 03:02 |
*** sp3000 has quit IRC | 03:02 | |
tso | i dont think witespace (as long as one stays away form tab) in most linux config files are not that important | 03:03 |

kulve | are you trying to connect to a vnc server on some desktop computer using the vnc client on your 770/n800? | 10:56 |
crazyjimbo | yup | 10:56 |
kulve | can you connect using a vnc client on some desktop computer? To make sure the vnc server is running properl.. | 10:57 |

kulve | yes | 10:58 |
crazyjimbo | i only have 1 PC | 10:58 |
kulve | hmm.. That makes the testing a bit harder.. | 10:58 |
kulve | linux? | 10:58 |
_Monkey | linux is a free kernel thats inside most open source operating systems today and its a core technology for Maemo | 10:58 |
UKP2 | has anyone bought navicore for their 770 or n800 from the online navicore website? | 10:59 |
crazyjimbo | im gonna reboot and try again | 10:59 |
crazyjimbo | brb | 10:59 |
kulve | crazyjimbo: try connecting to vnc server with telnet to see it is running.. | 10:59 |
kulve | you can test that from the vnc server computer and from the n800 (assuming you have telnet there.. | 11:00 |
kulve | ) | 11:00 |
crazyjimbo | cant telnet | 11:00 |
crazyjimbo | port 23 error | 11:00 |
kulve | on the vnc server computer: telnet localhost <vnc port> | 11:01 |
crazyjimbo | so you say to telnet from the PC to its own ip? | 11:01 |
kulve | yep, to make sure the vnc server is listening.. But I don't remember what's the vnc port.. | 11:01 |
crazyjimbo | 5900 | 11:02 |
crazyjimbo | I got a license error | 11:02 |
crazyjimbo | SO | 11:02 |
crazyjimbo | that is the answer! | 11:02 |
kulve | the linux telnet is good for testing if somebody is listening.. :) | 11:02 |
crazyjimbo | lol | 11:03 |
crazyjimbo | cool | 11:03 |
kulve | if the port is not telnet port, then the telnet skips telnet negotiation and just makes a tcp connection on the given port | 11:03 |
crazyjimbo | gonna reinstall vnc | 11:03 |
crazyjimbo | is f*cked | 11:03 |
kulve | hmm.. I have tightvncserver and vnc4server installed. Can't remember which one I tried.. | 11:05 |

unique311 | just found an awesome brush...that gave the sun the burn look | 13:27 |
pupnik | It does look nice. But for reasons derf mentioned, I'm more partial to a C/C++ app. When mtpaint/rgbpaint gets alpha blended brushes, i'll get back into it. | 13:28 |
unique311 | its python and c now.. | 13:30 |
unique311 | for mypaint | 13:30 |
unique311 | not sure about mt and rgb | 13:30 |
unique311 | same developer.. | 13:30 |

unique311 | when the choice comes to running ubuntu embed on MMC, i think then running these draw/paint/sketch apps will be fun | 13:33 |

*** konttori has joined #maemo | 13:42 | |
unique311 | it does timelyx, want the job? | 13:42 |
konttori | pupnik: what did you mean by the right-hand-side-button revolution? | 13:43 |
pupnik | i saw you mentioning that it would be nice to have a few buttons on the right hand side | 13:43 |
timelyx | heh | 13:43 |
konttori | pupnik: Yeah. it would rock | 13:43 |
timelyx | no, i'm not a fan of anything gtk related | 13:44 |
timelyx | and hildon is a gtk derivative | 13:44 |
unique311 | mypaint is python more than gtk | 13:44 |
konttori | I still think that alternative would the to have shoulder buttons for selection. It would take less room that way. | 13:44 |
* pupnik is fanatical about buttons for the right hand | 13:45 | |
timelyx | unique311: i prefer to write guis in XUL+JS not Python | 13:45 |
konttori | shoulder A on the left side and shoulder B on the right side. | 13:45 |
timelyx | you mean modern gameboy style? | 13:45 |
pupnik | yes two shoulder on right hand side could also work ok, but when i hold the device, the proper place is under my thumb | 13:45 |
unique311 | xul+js | 13:45 |
timelyx | xul is XML-based User Interface Language. XUL (pronounced "zuul") is the user interface description language used for creating user interfaces with Mozilla's Cross Platform Front End. http://mozilla.org/xpfe/xptoolkit/xulintro.html or application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml - A good introduction/tutorial is at http://www.xulplanet.com. see XUL1.0. or http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xul/ | 13:46 |
unique311 | timelyx, you a web dev? | 13:46 |
timelyx | unique311: um, depends which hat i wear when | 13:46 |
timelyx | i write my own rss/atom, roll my own generator, write my own blogs | 13:46 |
timelyx | i write patches for bugzilla/bonsai/mxr/tinderbox/despot (cgi) | 13:47 |
timelyx | i write patches to mozilla core (c++) | 13:47 |
timelyx | i write patches to xul based apps (xul, js) | 13:47 |

unique311 | n800 owner? | 13:51 |
timelyx | does having one in a sealed box count? :) | 13:51 |
timelyx | i own a 770 :) | 13:52 |
timelyx | the rest of my n800s are technically owned by nokia :) | 13:52 |
unique311 | ok | 13:52 |
timelyx | i'm a heavy user though :) | 13:52 |
unique311 | you work for them | 13:53 |
timelyx | yes | 13:53 |
unique311 | let me air out then.. | 13:53 |
unique311 | seriously need a team to hildon apps for people like me who no nothing of doing so. | 13:53 |
* timelyx chuckles | 13:54 | |
unique311 | get headaches from even trying to do so. | 13:54 |
timelyx | has no one done hildon bindings for python? | 13:54 |
timelyx | i'm a browser engineer, you have my sympathies | 13:54 |
timelyx | but i'm not the person you want to talk to | 13:54 |
unique311 | guess konttori disq trevarthan | 13:54 |
timelyx | for python, at least the app menu stuff should be trivial assuming bindings | 13:55 |
timelyx | the status line in hildon style would be an infobanner | 13:55 |
timelyx | oh, unlike most people you'll meet, i actually read specifications | 13:55 |
timelyx | and while i'm not guaranteed to be able to quote them, i probably do know them better than their authors (having read them in their entirety and more recently) | 13:56 |
unique311 | but all this makes sense to i guess someone with a developers background. | 13:56 |
timelyx | i also care about consistency (and spot really tiny details) | 13:56 |
timelyx | anyway, i suppose at some point i'll blog explaining who our team members are | 13:57 |
timelyx | once i figure out if i'm allowed to say who they are | 13:57 |
timelyx | we have some problems in that area | 13:57 |
timelyx | but first i need to file a bunch of rss/atom bugs :( | 13:58 |
unique311 | any reason why you are still using the 770? | 13:58 |
timelyx | too many installed apps | 13:59 |
timelyx | no clear upgrade path | 13:59 |
timelyx | safety in knowing work won't force me to destroy my data | 13:59 |
timelyx | very hard to confuse it w/ my other devices and accidentally flash it | 13:59 |
timelyx | i don't actually use it that often | 14:00 |
timelyx | but those are the reasons | 14:00 |
timelyx | it's not because the usb behavior is better | 14:00 |
timelyx | (which it is, or at least was) | 14:00 |
unique311 | i was thinking that was why | 14:00 |
timelyx | or because some of the video things actually got worse w/ n800 hardware | 14:00 |
unique311 | usb host mode | 14:00 |
timelyx | (which they sorta did) | 14:00 |
unique311 | you work for them.. | 14:01 |
timelyx | because to be honest, i only use video for demos and haven't done a demo of video since maybe february | 14:01 |
unique311 | you think you should be saying all this on a public channel like this | 14:01 |
timelyx | i'm aware it's a logged public channel | 14:01 |
timelyx | these aren't really secrets | 14:01 |
timelyx | imagine having 5 devices w/ no way to distinguish them | 14:02 |
timelyx | you're going to accidentally flash the wrong one | 14:02 |
timelyx | believe me, i'm pretty sure i did thursday or friday :( | 14:02 |
timelyx | or at least, i tried to, maybe i forgot to actually do it :) | 14:02 |
timelyx | as for the usb stuff, that's also well known | 14:02 |
timelyx | oh, the other thing was that media player in n800 did get worse in some ways | 14:03 |
unique311 | don't use it | 14:03 |
timelyx | but don't ask me which, i don't really use it much and can't remember | 14:03 |
timelyx | i think they're supposed to be fixing some of that stuff | 14:03 |
unique311 | i use kagu to play my music now.. | 14:03 |
timelyx | personally i used rhapsody while i could | 14:04 |
timelyx | and have no interest otherwise | 14:04 |
unique311 | i would like a nice hildon'd paint app | 14:04 |
unique311 | sketch | 14:04 |
unique311 | doesn't matter | 14:04 |
timelyx | i want either rhapsody, or just the ability to play mp3s | 14:04 |
timelyx | anything can do the latter | 14:04 |
timelyx | and well, basically only rhapsody does the former | 14:04 |
unique311 | rhapsody.. | 14:04 |
pupnik | some on-line music service i think | 14:05 |
unique311 | its in the garage? | 14:05 |

pupnik | i guess so | 14:17 |
pupnik | i prefer apt tools | 14:17 |
timelyx | i think that you can install individual files w/o redpill | 14:18 |
timelyx | but if you want to see a lib from a repo you'd need redpill | 14:18 |
__Andreas__ | tried apt-get install gstreamer-tools | 14:20 |

cbx33 | hey all | 16:00 |
cbx33 | what's the best compression/res/framerate/mediaplayer for maximum compression for the n800?? | 16:00 |
cbx33 | i know it's a tradeoff | 16:01 |
cbx33 | i just want a decent looking video with the smallest size | 16:01 |
pupnik | xvid | 16:02 |
pupnik | ... is the best i've found | 16:03 |
cbx33 | does the media player that ships play xvid? | 16:03 |
cbx33 | i ws using mplayer | 16:03 |
pupnik | i use mplayer | 16:03 |
cbx33 | but i wondered if the default on also uses mplayer | 16:03 |
cbx33 | ahhh ok | 16:03 |
cbx33 | what about framerates? | 16:03 |
cbx33 | sound quality? | 16:04 |
cbx33 | compression ratio | 16:04 |
cbx33 | for example.....if i wanted to fit a 25 min piece of video | 16:04 |
cbx33 | what kinda size would you expect? | 16:04 |
cbx33 | and what res would you use? - I tried 640x480 which looks ok.... | 16:05 |
cbx33 | I remember on my old dell axim i ran a film at 320x240 | 16:05 |
cbx33 | cos that was the screen size and it looked fine | 16:05 |
pupnik | for mplayer use ???x240 | 16:06 |
cbx33 | ok | 16:06 |
pupnik | i get 25 minute tv shows into about 70-80 MB | 16:06 |
cbx33 | cos the 220 dpi is a double edged sword really ;) | 16:07 |
cbx33 | right ok | 16:07 |
cbx33 | thanks pupnik | 16:07 |
cbx33 | that's what I was hoping for | 16:07 |
cbx33 | what do you use to do it? | 16:07 |
pupnik | mencoder on linux | 16:07 |
cbx33 | dvdrip is nice | 16:07 |
cbx33 | got an example command line for me to use? | 16:07 |
cbx33 | would be really helpful! | 16:08 |
pupnik | http://www.bleb.org/software/770/770-encode.pl | 16:08 |
pupnik | that has some good settings | 16:08 |
pupnik | but it uses mpeg4 divx | 16:09 |

cbx33 | pupnik I'm really interested in that too | 16:09 |

cbx33 | any chance of sharing your technique? | 16:10 |

pupnik | cbx33: here's the best i got so far with xvid codec -- the lavc codec claims to be good too, trying to compare now | 16:42 |
pupnik | http://pastebin.ca/654475 | 16:42 |
pupnik | 770-encode.pl uses lavc and vcodec=mpeg4. Now i really don't know if that's better or worse than xvid. Last i recall i was getting better compression though slightly artificially smoothed surfaces with xvid | 16:45 |

AD-N770 | hi pupnik | 16:46 |
pupnik | your nethack port was one of the things that made me realize i needed a 770 | 16:47 |
cbx33 | coool | 16:48 |
cbx33 | thanks so much pupnik | 16:48 |
cbx33 | I'll check that out and be back later | 16:48 |
pupnik | ok cheers | 16:48 |
cbx33 | I'll give you a comparison | 16:48 |
cbx33 | and....possibly write it up in a blog post | 16:48 |

*** zerojay has joined #maemo | 16:49 | |
AD-N770 | I bought the 770 for reading eboks, but two weeks after I decided that have nethack on it would be really interesting | 16:50 |
AD-N770 | nowadays I cannot find time to play with it | 16:50 |
pupnik | play=code or play=play? | 16:51 |
AD-N770 | both | 16:51 |
cbx33 | pupnik how big a film? | 16:55 |
cbx33 | pupnik do you just add those vf scale and crops to it? | 16:56 |
pupnik | i tweak the crop and scale individually for each film | 16:57 |
*** shackan has joined #maemo | 16:59 | |
pupnik | oops i have lumi_mask in there twice. also you can add 'cartoon' for encoder options, and reduce fps to the actual cartoon fps. also for noisy films, you can pull down the brighness, apply a lumi-mask filter to throw out the dark areas, then bring up the brightness before the encoder portion - helps cut out the noise - on an extreme example i almost totally killed the noise and background on a comedy standup live performance film a | 17:00 |
cbx33 | oh really? | 17:00 |
cbx33 | wow | 17:00 |

pupnik | s/scale/aspect | 17:08 |
*** guardian_ has joined #maemo | 17:10 | |
Jaffa | pupnik: use the -m-force-aspect -m1.1666666 doohicky | 17:10 |
Jaffa | Shouldn't be generating videos any bigger than the preset specifies, if it is - it's a bug, so send me more details :) | 17:11 |
pupnik | oh not using 770-encode.pl right now. have you compared xvidenc to lavc ? | 17:11 |
pupnik | thanks - fixed the aspect | 17:12 |
Jaffa | pupnik: no, better results? | 17:13 |
pupnik | i'll set up some testcases | 17:14 |
pupnik | not best visual quality but for high compression i like how xvid smoothes out unintersting textures and noise | 17:15 |
pupnik | so maybe yes better results | 17:15 |

cbx33 | where do i add that? | 17:49 |
pupnik | cartoon goes in the xvidencopts section | 17:50 |
*** AD-N770 has quit IRC | 17:51 | |
cbx33 | pupnik, how do i know what to use for the add crop? | 17:54 |
pupnik | depends on the size and borders of the source video | 17:55 |
cbx33 | i see | 17:55 |
cbx33 | 720x576 | 17:55 |
*** toi has quit IRC | 17:55 | |
cbx33 | dunno about borders | 17:55 |
cbx33 | pupnik, will it convert vobs? | 17:59 |
*** toi has joined #maemo | 17:59 | |
pupnik | so if you want the full 720 width from the source, then you crop=720:432 to get the 1.66667 aspect ratio | 17:59 |
cbx33 | ok | 17:59 |
cbx33 | then i scale to 400/240 | 18:00 |
pupnik | yeah | 18:00 |
cbx33 | cool | 18:00 |
cbx33 | did you say it would convert vobs? | 18:00 |
pupnik | no | 18:00 |
cbx33 | so i have to take an avi? | 18:01 |
pupnik | no | 18:01 |
cbx33 | ?? | 18:02 |
cbx33 | what do i do if I have a vob source? | 18:03 |
pupnik | man mencoder | 18:04 |
cbx33 | ok | 18:04 |
cbx33 | thanks | 18:04 |
pupnik | (i think i used dvdrip) | 18:04 |
cbx33 | did you do that | 18:04 |
cbx33 | to get it to a raw avi? | 18:04 |
cbx33 | then use your convert on that avi file? | 18:04 |
pupnik | yeah | 18:04 |
cbx33 | ok | 18:04 |
cbx33 | that's what I'll do | 18:05 |
cbx33 | so when u use dvdrip, what did you rip into? | 18:06 |
cbx33 | did you still use xvid? or is ther e araw option? | 18:06 |
pupnik | don't remember what i used | 18:07 |
cbx33 | ok | 18:08 |
cbx33 | just make it high quality | 18:08 |
cbx33 | what kinda kbit/s is good for the hight quality avi? | 18:10 |
pupnik | yeah, you can also copy over the video without recoding - copy codec | 18:10 |
cbx33 | cool | 18:10 |
cbx33 | sounds like you know a lot about this pupnik | 18:10 |
pupnik | just enough to get by | 18:11 |
cbx33 | so you can copy the video from the vob to an avi without recoding | 18:11 |
cbx33 | then perform the compression stage? | 18:11 |
pupnik | right | 18:11 |
cbx33 | ok | 18:11 |

cbx33 | and now I'm going to try encoding | 18:16 |
cbx33 | thanks pupnik | 18:16 |
pupnik | when you playback check mplayer output to verify that displayed=400x240, sampled=400x240 | 18:17 |

cbx33 | hehe | 21:14 |
sparr | thanks for the help though | 21:14 |
cbx33 | pupnik, thanks so much for the help earlier | 21:14 |
pupnik | np. but don't take my word about xvid being better | 21:15 |
cbx33 | heheeh | 21:15 |
cbx33 | what's the alternative? | 21:15 |
_Monkey | well, the alternative is to not actually send unrendered content | 21:15 |
cbx33 | mpeg4? | 21:15 |
_Monkey | well, mpeg4 is the divx/xvid codec. if you want to play my xvid/divx avi files and the sort you will nees mpeg4 always | 21:15 |
cbx33 | shhhhh _Monkey | 21:15 |

BladeRunner | somebody knows how to remove python2.3 reference in scratchbox environment to use python2.5? | 21:16 |
cbx33 | BladeRunner, oooooooooh | 21:18 |
cbx33 | i wanted to do exactly that the other day | 21:18 |
BladeRunner | i've installed 2.5 but its not recognizing some libs | 21:19 |
BladeRunner | if i simply uninstall 2.3 gets worse | 21:20 |
cbx33 | heheh | 21:21 |
cbx33 | pupnik, 2-pass is definitely worth it | 21:21 |
cbx33 | it's awesome | 21:22 |
pupnik | cool. i have to wait til tomorrow to compare | 21:22 |
cbx33 | seriously 2-pass is almost perfect | 21:22 |
cbx33 | well - obviously not quite but...it is staggering the difference | 21:22 |
pupnik | and a freaky small size too | 21:22 |
*** W_I has quit IRC | 21:22 | |

cbx33 | 2 Mb a min | 21:23 |
cbx33 | I'm going to try 1Mb a min | 21:23 |
cbx33 | half the bit rate | 21:23 |
cbx33 | see what it looks like | 21:23 |
pupnik | for a laff try mpeg2 at that bitrate | 21:23 |
cbx33 | it it's acceptab;e that'll be soooo cool | 21:23 |
cbx33 | will it be huge? | 21:23 |
pupnik | no same size | 21:23 |
cbx33 | but worse quality? | 21:23 |
cbx33 | is that the comparison you tried in march? | 21:24 |
sparr | wtf | 21:24 |
sparr | ive got a repository | 21:24 |
sparr | apt-get update can see it | 21:24 |
sparr | my desktop can download from it | 21:24 |

cbx33 | fltk on maemo? | 21:37 |

pupnik | i don't know how to tell dpkg-buildpackage to ignore optional dependencies | 21:38 |
pupnik | i mean i can with -d | 21:38 |

cbx33 | pupnik, yup | 21:42 |
cbx33 | you can pull out the build-deps there | 21:43 |
BladeRunner | cbx33: i've already did that and i had to reinstall scratchbox | 21:43 |
cbx33 | oh | 21:43 |

_Monkey | acmonitor is N800 version at http://planetmath.cc.vt.edu/~derf/local/dists/bora/user/binary-armel/acmonitor_0.1_armel.deb and N770 version at http://pupnik.de/acmonitor.html | 21:57 |
pupnik | even, install acmonitor, then activate extended screen dimming timeouts | 21:57 |
even | excellent! thank you very much! | 21:58 |
pupnik | see this thread: http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5704 | 21:58 |
even | I somehow managed to hit all the wrong keywords for it. | 21:59 |
pupnik | acmonitor isn't really needed if you are willing to change timeouts manually | 22:00 |
even | manually as in? | 22:00 |
BladeRunner | cbx33: with apt-get remove | 22:00 |
pupnik | it switches your screen profile based on power status | 22:00 |
pupnik | clicking on display and then settings then select your timeout | 22:01 |

pupnik | not sure about never. maybe 10 hours is possible with 36000 seconds | 22:05 |
pupnik | qgil yeah more people should use wiki for their maemo notes | 22:06 |
pupnik | for e.g about 40 threads in ITT should be on there | 22:07 |
qgil | pupnik: I guess it's about starting the routine and having a more friendly ground to add more recipes | 22:07 |
even | pupnik: the thread you linked to mentions "There is, you can write a daemon or program that sends 'pings' to keep the screen alive.", but is kind of short on the details. | 22:07 |
cbx33 | BladeRunner, problem is python is included in the scratchbox-core package | 22:07 |
pupnik | even: you saw the gconf settings - those allow you to add longer timeouts | 22:08 |
qgil | I'll try to create quick pages and edits whenever I see a good tip in the mailing lists, I hope others will find worth following | 22:08 |
even | pupnik: Sure, and if the second counter is 16 bit it should really be ample. | 22:09 |
sparr | qgil: i think if the wiki gets any more popular the admins are going to have to turn off global update notification... i feel sad for them when i edit things 10+ times | 22:09 |
qgil | can people here comment on the wiki main page https://maemo.org/community/wiki/ ? Do you think it's a good start? Something missing or...? | 22:09 |
sparr | qgil: how stuck are you on midgard wiki? its markup system is... deficient | 22:10 |
* cbx33 has already written 2 blog posts about stuff | 22:10 | |
cbx33 | i guess i could put them onto the wiki | 22:10 |
qgil | sparr I think I have filed a bug report about not having checkbox for "trivial changes". However, if someone subscribes to global changes you kind of know what to expect. I get all these notifications :) | 22:10 |
BladeRunner | cbx33: it has two locations /scratchbox/.../bladerunner/scratchbox/tools/bin ... /scratchbox/tools/bin | 22:11 |

sp3000 | is ApplicationRepositories necessary there? presumably maemo.org/downloads and .install magic should cover that | 22:13 |
cbx33 | true | 22:13 |
pupnik | but it doesn't | 22:14 |
sp3000 | the problem is you get people thinking they have to configure repositories in the mainstream case | 22:14 |
sp3000 | (for some arbitrary definition of mainstream, *cough*) | 22:15 |
pupnik | have you looked at the installable packages from a freshly flashed image? | 22:15 |
sp3000 | why? | 22:15 |
sparr | sp3000: NO | 22:15 |
pupnik | it's like... NOTHING | 22:15 |
cbx33 | pupnik, if the source was 720x480 | 22:15 |
sparr | sp3000: most people dont make .installs, and the application catalog is slow. | 22:15 |
cbx33 | what would I crop to? | 22:15 |
pupnik | divide 720 by 1.66667 | 22:16 |
cbx33 | thanky | 22:16 |
cbx33 | 430 | 22:16 |
cbx33 | hmmm | 22:16 |
pupnik | a 'normal user' who gets the 770 and then clicks on 'install new applications' will think "this sucks! no software available for it!" | 22:17 |
cbx33 | yup | 22:17 |
sp3000 | sparr: I'm saying a list of stuff that doesn't say what's found in each repo anyway is not front page material | 22:17 |
cbx33 | i agree | 22:17 |
sparr | sp3000: i disagree | 22:18 |
pupnik | it's good to list the main attractions of each repo | 22:18 |
sparr | sp3000: imho, the sources.list and red pill instructions are front page material. the difference with and without them are night and day | 22:18 |
sp3000 | you seriously think the applicationrepositories page is a useful software discovery mechanism? | 22:18 |
sparr | hell yes | 22:18 |
cbx33 | pupnik, ++ | 22:18 |
sparr | where else do you get repository info? | 22:19 |
*** Artemisprime has joined #maemo | 22:19 | |
Artemisprime | Hello | 22:19 |
cbx33 | tbh, it would be nice to create these pages almost automatically | 22:19 |
sparr | my first visit to maemo.org i used the application catalog and added repositories as they were described on a per-application basis... the applicationrepositories page was a godsend | 22:19 |
sp3000 | why, /downloads :) and the various upstreams (which may use the applicationrepositories listing to link to) | 22:19 |
cbx33 | wow pupnik just doing another video, same length, first pass is 180Mb | 22:19 |
Artemisprime | How do i join a chat on irc with pidgin | 22:20 |
sp3000 | but I don't see how linking to applicationrepositories as a whole list is useful | 22:20 |
Artemisprime | Like maemo | 22:20 |
sp3000 | linking to it as a crutch for not having an .install from a site offering some software does make sense | 22:20 |
sparr | not "a site" | 22:20 |
sparr | EVERY site | 22:20 |
sparr | there are hundreds of apps with no .install | 22:20 |
sp3000 | sure, | 22:20 |
sparr | right now, applicationrepositories is the single best way to get a 770 into usable condition | 22:21 |
sp3000 | but I don't see the case for linking from front page | 22:21 |
Artemisprime | Anyone use pidgin ? | 22:21 |

Artemisprime | K | 22:22 |
cbx33 | sparr, to what? | 22:22 |
mmlj4 | so what's the deal? what is the latest OS I can put on my 770? or can/should I apt-get dist-upgrade instead? | 22:22 |
_Monkey | i already had it that way, mmlj4. | 22:22 |
cbx33 | installing a list of repos? | 22:22 |
sparr | cbx33: installing that list, the full list. | 22:22 |
cbx33 | sparr, creating an apt package isn't hard | 22:23 |
sparr | mmlj4: 2006 2.2 aka 3.2006-49.2(?) | 22:23 |
cbx33 | why don't you just download the pacakge in one of the repos which does that already and hack it up | 22:23 |
sparr | cbx33: im relatively sure debian policy says packages arent allowed to touch sources.list | 22:23 |
Artemisprime | I m | 22:23 |
cbx33 | is this just for you or for anyone? | 22:23 |
mmlj4 | what about apt-get upgrading? or is that "apt-get brick"? | 22:23 |

sparr | cbx33: that is the question at hand :) | 22:26 |
cbx33 | sparr, well | 22:26 |
sparr | better yet, can a .install file trigger red pill mode? | 22:26 |
cbx33 | looking at it assumes so | 22:26 |
Artemisprime | I dunno | 22:26 |
cbx33 | probably | 22:26 |
cbx33 | red pill mode is presumably just the editing of a file | 22:26 |
sparr | the front page of the wiki, or a first-level page under it, should include one or more .install files to "fix" a default install of each OS | 22:26 |
cbx33 | a confif file i presume | 22:26 |
cbx33 | "fix" ? | 22:26 |
sparr | update sources.list, enable red pill mode, turn on root access | 22:27 |
cbx33 | by _fix_ you really mean _enhance_ | 22:27 |
sparr | all the things that im relatively sure everyone in this channel does every time we flash | 22:27 |

apple2 | thanks | 22:39 |
pupnik | apple2, what OS is your PC running | 22:39 |
BladeRunner | cbx33: thanks i forgot to change after reinstall the sbox | 22:39 |
BladeRunner | it was the resolv.conf | 22:40 |
apple2 | ubuntu 7.04 | 22:40 |
cbx33 | np BladeRunner | 22:40 |
pupnik | apple2: that's a good one - lots of support for that - you can find lots of help for installing scratchbox on it - use the .debs for ubuntu | 22:40 |
cbx33 | wow | 22:41 |
cbx33 | second pass on this vid is taking 40 mins | 22:41 |

pupnik | Now i have to re-encode a bunch of stuff | 22:58 |
*** alex-weej has quit IRC | 22:58 | |
sparr | i want a wiki page dedicated to removing stuff from the default 770 image in order to free up space. anyone else think that would be useful? | 22:59 |
pupnik | i do. | 23:00 |

pupnik | it'd be a short one but it would help people find it | 23:00 |

pupnik | careful with those | 23:00 |
*** matt_c has quit IRC | 23:01 | |
sparr | elaborate? | 23:02 |
pupnik | i messed up my 770 by deleting theme directories i thought i didn't need | 23:02 |

*** BladeRunner has left #maemo | 23:03 | |
qgil | sparr: every time you feel like writing "fuck you nokia" you probably want to file a bug instead | 23:04 |
sparr | qgil: oh, i do :) | 23:05 |
sparr | pupnik: yeah, dont delete things. always TRY to play nice with the package manager | 23:05 |
pupnik | sparr can you give an example of an osso- package that depends on the thtme2 or 3? | 23:06 |
pupnik | *theme | 23:06 |
*** pdz- has quit IRC | 23:06 | |
sparr | pupnik: apt-get remove osso-theme-theme2 | 23:06 |
sparr | youll see the huge tree of parents | 23:06 |
cbx33 | anyone got infor here baout creating themes? | 23:06 |
sparr | cbx33: not hard info, but its not hard... "dpkg -L osso-theme-theme2", make your own theme match what that package provides | 23:07 |
sparr | but with theme[somethingotherthan2] as the names :) | 23:07 |

cbx33 | pupnik, cool | 23:08 |
K0brik | yo maemo | 23:08 |
pupnik | sparr i think qgil is right - the dependencies could be fixed | 23:09 |
qgil | sparr send me the bug report once you have it - I'm also interested to see if things can be improved in this issue | 23:11 |
* cbx33 wants to fix the bug 1204 | 23:12 | |
_Monkey | Bug 1204 might be found at https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1204 | 23:12 |
cbx33 | but i think i have a card which is working better | 23:12 |
cbx33 | fingers crossed | 23:13 |
qgil | sparr it will be useful that you explain in the bug report what are you trying to do and what the dependencies are an obstacle - I would like to think you are hitting a use case that wasn't contemplated when these dependencies were defined | 23:13 |
cbx33 | oh btw someone told me to install the new kernel, and wanted to know if it fixed the issue | 23:13 |
cbx33 | it didn't | 23:13 |
zerojay | I kind of want to know what users expected when the N800 is writing to the card when the battery loses power. | 23:14 |

pauliukas | Long story... | 23:37 |
milhouse | zerojay... we like _monkey - don't we? :) | 23:37 |

*** toi has joined #maemo | 23:38 | |
pauliukas | right. | 23:38 |
milhouse | here you go: http://www.google.co.uk/search?source=ig&hl=en&q=linux+change+mac+address&btnG=Google+Search | 23:38 |
pauliukas | Ah. So that would work? | 23:38 |
milhouse | should do | 23:39 |
pauliukas | Is the change permanent or until reboot? | 23:39 |
milhouse | temp | 23:39 |
pauliukas | gotcha. | 23:39 |
*** jonty_ has joined #maemo | 23:40 | |
milhouse | you'd need to add a startup script to change the mac address before the device hits run level 3, i think | 23:40 |
pauliukas | okay... | 23:41 |
milhouse | possibly earlier than that in fact - the wlan seems to start in /etc/rc.2/S30wlancond | 23:42 |
milhouse | so you'd want the mac changed before that process is started | 23:42 |
pauliukas | Will it change even though it's not up? | 23:42 |
milhouse | should do | 23:42 |
pauliukas | Most people on those sites say to use ifdown and then ifup | 23:42 |
pauliukas | The interface is wifi0, right? | 23:43 |
milhouse | dunno, try that | 23:43 |
milhouse | wlan0 here | 23:43 |
milhouse | on n800 | 23:43 |
_Monkey | somebody said on n800 was there a way to chance between intern and extern sd card, pluging the n800 with usb to the pc? | 23:43 |

cbx33 | sparr, cool | 23:50 |
milhouse | pauliukas - n800 or 770? wlan0 works for me on n800 (provided there is no current network connection) but then I fail to re-authenticate when establishing a connection with the new mac address (and no i'm not using a mac filter) | 23:52 |
*** philipl has quit IRC | 23:52 | |

sparr | who wants to be a guinea pig? :) need someone with a 770 | 23:53 |
*** pdz- has quit IRC | 23:53 | |
milhouse | odd... my n800 just won't authenticate when using a bogus wlan0 MAC address... I've changed the last digit up by one and it fails to connect to my router using WPA/PSK-TKIP, then I changed it down by one (ie. back to it's original MAC) and it connects just fine. | 23:55 |
milhouse | can't explain that - I don't use any MAC filtering | 23:56 |
milhouse | in dmesg when it attempts to initiate the wifi connection it lists the original MAC address even when it's changed to something else so i wonder if there's a software conflict going on. | 23:56 |
