| bedboi | sbz: dl_iterate_phdr? | 00:02 |
| bedboi | what about that? | 00:02 |
| bedboi | sbz: i did ldd `which objdump` but libelf is not a dependency, so i was pretending that libelf does not have that feature | 00:03 |
| sbz | i never saw dl_iterate_phdr header, i can't bring to you more precisions about that | 00:04 |

| Deformative | Really!? | 03:16 |
| * Deformative needs | 03:16 | |
| celesteh | _monkey vmware? | 03:16 |
| _Monkey | vmware is a Maemo Development appliance for vmware/vmplayer - http://www.vmware.com/appliances/directory/702 | 03:16 |
| Deformative | _Monkey qemu | 03:16 |
| _Monkey | qemu is alpha for os x | 03:16 |
| Deformative | I like qemu etter | 03:16 |
| Deformative | Eh. | 03:18 |
| Deformative | I guess I will get vmware. | 03:18 |
| celesteh | both images are offered from the same website, so if you follow the vmware link, you should get to both | 03:18 |
| celesteh | vmware is not free. i have a 30 day evaluation and i don't think it's worth paying for. | 03:19 |
| Deformative | It is free. | 03:19 |
| Deformative | It is not free as in open source. | 03:19 |
| celesteh | the os x version is not, at least their website implies that it's not | 03:19 |
| Deformative | Oh. | 03:19 |
| Deformative | Well, I know the linux is. | 03:19 |
| pauliukas | VMWare Server and Player is free. | 03:19 |
| pauliukas | Everything else is paid. | 03:19 |
| Deformative | But it is free as in $0 | 03:19 |
| pauliukas | No. The Linux Workstation is over $100 | 03:20 |
| pauliukas | I'm talking free as in beer, not OSS | 03:20 |
| Deformative | I am talking about server | 03:20 |

| henno | Deformative: so I hazard a guess that an arch PKGBUILD for scratchbox will not be forthcoming :) | 03:24 |
| Deformative | Well, I made a pkgbuild, but it is only useful if you recompile the kernel. | 03:24 |
| Deformative | So... | 03:24 |
| Deformative | I hate compiling kernels. | 03:24 |
| henno | so did my note about disabling vdso via a =0 flag or whatever achieve nothing? | 03:27 |
| Deformative | Didn't work. | 03:27 |
| Deformative | And the vmware image has no seaders. | 03:28 |
| Deformative | Great. | 03:28 |
| henno | bummer and bummer | 03:28 |
| henno | they should rename it scrath-your-head-box | 03:29 |
| henno | s/scrath/scratch/ | 03:29 |
| infobot | henno meant: they should rename it scratch-your-head-box | 03:29 |
| [31d1] | i managed to get a severely broken scratchbox working nd i've been able to compile a few very simple things | 03:29 |
| Deformative | Hmm. | 03:29 |
| [31d1] | i just compiled nvi | 03:30 |
| Deformative | Maybe it is not working because I don't have port forwarding on. | 03:30 |
| * [31d1] is loving that | 03:30 | |
| * Deformative checks | 03:30 | |
| henno | Deformative: http://madabar.com/techblog/2007/08/12/how-to-create-a-deb-package-for-maemo-without-scratchbox/ | 03:30 |
| henno | might be worth a look | 03:31 |
| Deformative | Could it be flashed without scratchbox? | 03:31 |
| Deformative | Either way. | 03:31 |
| Deformative | The image seems cool. | 03:31 |
| Deformative | It should have everything. | 03:31 |
| Deformative | Sweet. | 03:32 |
| Deformative | Downloading now. | 03:32 |
| henno | if scrathbox needs 512mb/ram etc, I hate to think what it needs running inside vmware however | 03:32 |
| Deformative | 6kb | 03:32 |
| [31d1] | im excited for rxvt | 03:33 |
| Deformative | :) | 03:33 |
| Deformative | I am considering making a full DE as well. | 03:33 |
| Deformative | But that is too far in the future to think about. | 03:34 |
| [31d1] | DE? | 03:34 |
| [31d1] | oh | 03:34 |
| [31d1] | IDE - I | 03:34 |
| Deformative | Desktop environment | 03:34 |
| [31d1] | ah | 03:35 |
| Deformative | Written in D. | 03:35 |
| Deformative | Maybe RushPL would want to help. | 03:35 |
| henno | Deformative: can you link me a torrent file? I might seed myself a copy just in case | 03:35 |
| [31d1] | it would be nice to have another window manager | 03:35 |
| Deformative | I am downloading the torrent on my laptop, not desktop. | 03:35 |
| Deformative | [31d1]: Yeah, I really like the design of the current one, but there are some minor things that can use work. | 03:36 |
| [31d1] | wmii would be awesome for a 770 imo - no idea how to go about porting shit like that though | 03:36 |
| Deformative | That would be very very easy. | 03:36 |
| Deformative | But at the same time useless. | 03:36 |
| [31d1] | you'd lose the keyboard and stuff right? | 03:36 |
| Deformative | [31d1]: well, depends. | 03:36 |
| Deformative | Prolly not. | 03:36 |
| Deformative | As long as all the apps still used GTK+ | 03:37 |
| [31d1] | hmm | 03:37 |
| Deformative | henno: I just followed the link posted here. | 03:37 |
| Deformative | henno: You were the one getting the bluetooth keyboard, right? | 03:37 |
| henno | right | 03:38 |
| Deformative | How is that working out? | 03:38 |
| [31d1] | why would wmii be useless then? | 03:38 |
| henno | Deformative: I won't have it for a week or two | 03:38 |
| [31d1] | besides if you just don't like wmii, which is understandeable | 03:39 |
| Deformative | [31d1]: because, everything would be small. | 03:39 |
| henno | 'tis on backorder at expansys | 03:39 |
| Deformative | wmii isn't designed for a very small screen | 03:39 |
| Deformative | Where the current ui makes everything fullsize | 03:39 |
| [31d1] | on full screen it would still be useable i'd think - you'd need to use stacking mode, and tiles would be a bit silly i bet | 03:40 |
| Deformative | Does vmware still require a serial? | 03:40 |
| Deformative | Oh | 03:40 |
| Deformative | Yeah it does. | 03:40 |
| Deformative | Just read it | 03:40 |
| [31d1] | hmm does that maemo3.0 image support 770? | 03:42 |
| Deformative | ... | 03:43 |
| Deformative | That is a maemo 3 image. | 03:43 |
| * Deformative is pissed | 03:43 | |
| [31d1] | i thought 3.0 was 800 ... oh | 03:43 |
| Deformative | I think it is. | 03:43 |
| Deformative | I didn't know that image was for 3.0 | 03:44 |
| Deformative | Ugh. | 03:44 |
| Deformative | Damnit | 03:44 |
| [31d1] | i couldn't tell you really but half the pain of scratchbox was finding the right version and tutorial for that version, and even then the tutorial had stuff to do in it that the version had onsoleted | 03:45 |
| pupnik | heya | 03:46 |
| pupnik | i keep missing the chat where i can be of assistance | 03:46 |

| *** ssvb has quit IRC | 03:47 | |
| [31d1] | maybe that image and installing maemo 2 on it would be not that bad though | 03:48 |
| Deformative | That's true. | 03:49 |
| Deformative | Hmm. | 03:49 |
| [31d1] | afaik it's just another target you have to add | 03:49 |
| * [31d1] knows nothing | 03:50 | |
| pupnik | yes you should be able to add a 2.2/gregale target | 03:52 |
| pupnik | afaik - i haven't added a bora target here yet | 03:52 |
| Deformative | So it would be easy to convert the 3.0 to 2.2? | 03:53 |
| [31d1] | you can add multiple targets, and you can switch between them | 03:54 |
| Deformative | Oh. | 03:54 |
| Deformative | Interesting. | 03:54 |
| Deformative | How do I add a target then? | 03:54 |
| [31d1] | theres some tool | 03:54 |
| [31d1] | sb-menu ? | 03:54 |
| [31d1] | its interactive | 03:54 |
| [31d1] | you need a 'rootstrap' and i dont know what else - i just followed some greek to me tutorial | 03:55 |
| Deformative | Can the vmware image ALSO flash my device? | 04:00 |
| *** fer__ has joined #maemo | 04:00 | |
| pupnik | you can flash the device from a regular linux machine | 04:01 |
| Deformative | Sure. | 04:01 |
| pupnik | scratchbox/vmware not necessary | 04:02 |
| Deformative | But I didn't remember if vmware had access to usb | 04:02 |
| pupnik | it does | 04:02 |

| Tili | can we use Qt for GUI on N800 | 12:32 |
| jani | to some extend yes i guess. | 12:33 |
| RushPL | why not? | 12:34 |
| RushPL | people are running whole KDE | 12:34 |
| jani | is the vkb support ready yet for qt widgets? | 12:35 |
| RushPL | I'm still waiting for my Nokia, so I only know what people were talking here and what I've read. | 12:35 |
| RushPL | but probably you can use some custom vkb | 12:36 |
| RushPL | QT supports "uim" | 12:37 |
| RushPL | Universal Input Method | 12:37 |
| Tili | RushPL: issue could be memory. i am reading on forums and blogs | 12:38 |

| * Deformative leaves again | 13:27 | |
| lardman | yaffs doesn't do compression, doesn't work well on NOR, but other than that is smaller (mem overhead) and faster | 13:27 |
| lle2 | but nooooo, we had to have rw | 13:27 |
| *** bergie has quit IRC | 13:27 | |
| lle2 | even if nobody is able to upgrade the device without a full reflash | 13:28 |
| lle2 | such a waste | 13:29 |
| lardman | I think the plan is to allow incremental updates | 13:29 |
| lardman | plus if we didn't have rw, we'd need to go back to the original system of installing things in odd places | 13:29 |
| lle2 | i'll believe it when i see it | 13:30 |
| lle2 | why would that be? | 13:30 |
| lle2 | userdata in the fat, tmp as tmpfs | 13:31 |
| lardman | you wouldn't be able to install things to a ro filesystem | 13:31 |
| lle2 | big loss, just let people who want to do that install them to sd cards using whatever filesystem they please, mount it on top of the regular root if needed | 13:32 |
| lardman | Using something like unionfs? | 13:33 |
| lardman | Which was buggy, and may still be | 13:33 |
| lle2 | no, just plain regular mount | 13:34 |
| lle2 | that root would need to have the full system | 13:34 |
| lardman | in which case I can't install stuff to the standard directory - /usr/bin | 13:34 |
| inz | unionfs should work too, if the "real root" was ro | 13:35 |
| lle2 | why not? | 13:35 |
| lle2 | you would effectively boot from the sd | 13:35 |
| lardman | ah, I see what you mean, well why have the flash at all in that case? | 13:35 |
| lle2 | same cruft there as in the built-in flas | 13:35 |
| lardman | plus the cards are slow | 13:35 |
| lle2 | not that slow | 13:36 |
| lle2 | maybe by 50 percent or so | 13:36 |
| lardman | that's quite slow | 13:36 |
| lle2 | but that should only affect load times | 13:36 |
| suihkulokki | still faster than jffs2 =) | 13:36 |
| lardman | fair enough | 13:37 |
| suihkulokki | the bonus of having ro root is it so much harder for the user to brick it uninstallable | 13:37 |
| lle2 | that too | 13:38 |
| lardman | yes, but realistically it's not possible to brick the device anyway, even flashing it | 13:38 |
| lle2 | and the sd cards are getting faster all the time | 13:38 |
| Veggen | lardman: that's one of the good designs of the tablets, I'd say. | 13:39 |
| lardman | as long as users steer clear of a terminal, and sudo gainroot, then can't do much damage | 13:39 |
| lardman | Veggen: yes | 13:39 |
| lle2 | of the omaps to be precise | 13:39 |
| lardman | shame part of that design wasn't to release technical manuals too! | 13:39 |
| lle2 | but i think we're talking of different level of brickness | 13:40 |
| suihkulokki | brickness level =) | 13:40 |
| lardman | surely there is only one level, the level where it's only useful as a paperweight? | 13:41 |
| lle2 | soft, virtual and hard brickness | 13:41 |
| suihkulokki | currently the user can put something funny in ~/.profile and find out his/her device no longer boots | 13:41 |
| lardman | semi-baked brick? | 13:41 |
| suihkulokki | and the only recourse is to reflash firmware | 13:41 |
| lardman | ok, so it's a flaw | 13:41 |
| lle2 | hard means the rom code can't load anything over the serial and run it | 13:42 |
| lle2 | virtual means the bootloader starts but can't do shit | 13:42 |
| lle2 | soft is the normal case of reboot loops etc | 13:43 |
| lle2 | my definitions =) | 13:43 |
| lardman | Have a method of booting to a recovery console then, let that wipe the contents of ~/.profile etc. | 13:44 |

| pupnik | did you ever find out whether you could get more DSP info if you signed a NDA lardman? | 14:21 |
| lardman | I'm not sure it was an NDA, it was more the cost involved | 14:22 |
| lardman | I think I emailed them back to ask, but no reply | 14:22 |
| pupnik | ok | 14:22 |
| lardman | In any case the DSP info is pretty good | 14:22 |
| pupnik | but integrating into gstreamer and outputting to the dac are still problems, no? | 14:23 |
| lardman | well no, I could sit down (and do some learning) and write a codec driver | 14:24 |
| lardman | but then I would need to re-compile the DSP kernel, which means I'd loose Nokia's bits & pieces | 14:25 |
| *** vudentz has joined #maemo | 14:25 | |
| lardman | so the existing dspsinks wouldn't work | 14:25 |
| lardman | plus it seems like a lot of work really | 14:25 |
| pupnik | ok | 14:25 |
| lardman | I understand that Nokia are thinking of moving towards stacking audio codecs anyway, so writing one that passes data back and forth to the ARM is not a bad thing | 14:26 |
| pupnik | stacking? | 14:26 |
| *** NetBlade_ has quit IRC | 14:27 | |
| lardman | The one thing I would like, is to be able to access the BT hardware directly, but hopefully Nokia will sort that (it would be a kernel recompile again) | 14:27 |
| lardman | OpenMAX | 14:27 |
| lardman | so you could decode mp3 -> pcm -> sbc | 14:27 |
| lardman | that sort of thing | 14:27 |
| pupnik | ahh | 14:27 |
| lardman | rather than monolithic dspsinks that do everything and then output on the dsp-side | 14:28 |
| lardman | that's my understanding anwyay | 14:28 |
| *** NetBlade has joined #maemo | 14:29 | |
| lardman | I've got a couple of compiler errors remaining on the dsp-side vorbis decoder, then I can try it and see if anything happens ;) | 14:31 |

| bherrmann | oh, I thought the scratchbox enrionment included some way to pretty closely execute stuff intended to run on the ARM hardware | 15:54 |
| lle2 | dpb_, :) | 15:54 |
| bherrmann | so scratchbox is more of a toolchain then | 15:54 |
| lle2 | qemu would be the emulation part | 15:54 |
| lle2 | with sb1 it's all tangled into one giant thing | 15:55 |

| jonek | lle2: what does that mean? | 15:59 |
| lle2 | jonek, it depends on too many things, sb just wants to run dumb configure tests that way, it's all these funny people who think it's an emulator who expect too much from it | 16:01 |
| lle2 | jonek, qemu system mode is much better at solving the emu problem | 16:01 |
| lle2 | jonek, i've been trying to get people understand this for years now | 16:02 |
| lle2 | no success in sight, i'm afraid | 16:02 |
| bherrmann | Is there anykind of thinking about how Maemo is going to cope with or learn from the iphone? | 16:02 |
| lle2 | yes | 16:03 |
| jonek | lle2: ok - should I run my audio+hardwarekeys+GUI app in the PC target (implies I compiled it under that target before) and hope my linux box plays audio, my xephyr shows the GUI and xephyr serves hardware keys then? | 16:03 |

| *** greentux has quit IRC | 16:21 | |
| jonek | I think maemo/scratchbox/PC target is there only for developers to not have to bother with wrong versions of libs but instead have exactly the same environment like in the ARMEL target. Isn't that an emulator then (when running in xephyr)? | 16:21 |
| lle2 | kind of yes | 16:21 |
| lardman | I guess if you're developing a GUI app then being able to run and see if on your PC is easier than copying across, etc. | 16:22 |
| lardman | s/if/it | 16:22 |
| lle2 | just because something's there doesn't make it good though | 16:22 |
| jonek | ok => PC target for emulation, ARMEL target just for cross compilation | 16:23 |
| lle2 | there's no reason that couln't be done without sbox | 16:23 |

| *** MoRpHeUz has joined #maemo | 16:24 | |

| bherrmann | Yea, the iphone has some good marketing... and it's a slick product | 21:16 |
| bherrmann | It would be interesting if you could some how tell how much of the product is good "technically" and how much is just robust "marketing" | 21:17 |
| lardman | hmm, I can't really see why BSD-style licensed and then modified code can't be released as GPL | 21:17 |
| *** ||cw has joined #maemo | 21:17 | |
| lardman | any thoughts? | 21:17 |

| nisse- | Is there any other good guides on the net for maemo developing other than the official? | 22:58 |
| pupnik | nisse-: did you see the nsswitch link? did that fix your apt-get problem? | 22:59 |
| nisse- | pupnik: Yes, but I did not konw that it was intended for me. | 23:01 |
| nisse- | But, thanks.. | 23:01 |
| nisse- | I'll check it out now. | 23:02 |
| erstazi | nisse-: you want to develop for maemo or port apps? | 23:06 |
| nisse- | erstazi: Develop maemo | 23:07 |
| nisse- | pupnik: It seems that it did fix the problem. | 23:07 |
| pupnik | :) | 23:07 |
| nisse- | pupnik: Thanks. | 23:08 |
| erstazi | nisse-: scratchbox is a great application to test your apps | 23:08 |
| erstazi | scratchbox? | 23:08 |
| _Monkey | scratchbox is, like, a cross-compilation toolkit for maemo application development.

| erstazi | nisse-: if you have your setup correct, yes | 23:14 |
| erstazi | nisse-: have you ever used a debian-based distro? | 23:14 |
| erstazi | nisse-: I am assuming so, but anyhow, yes, I usually just scp over to the device | 23:15 |
| Nermal | any ideas re my unlock code problem ? | 23:15 |
| Nermal | trying to set a lock code for my n800 (newly flashed today). tried 12345 but that doesn't work :( | 23:15 |
| erstazi | oh I think the default for that is 123456 | 23:15 |
| pupnik | I never locked the device, becuase ... i don't leave it lying around! :) | 23:15 |
| erstazi | pupnik: heh | 23:15 |
| Nermal | I'm thinking if it gets nicked | 23:16 |
| pupnik | ah | 23:16 |
| erstazi | does 123456 work? | 23:16 |
| Nermal | erstazi: nope :( | 23:16 |
| Nermal | flashing a new image should reset any code that was on the device before yah ? | 23:16 |
| nisse- | erstazi: Yes I've used debian ... | 23:17 |
| Nermal | not sure if there was one - don't think there was | 23:17 |
| nisse- | erstazi: long time:D | 23:17 |
| erstazi | Nermal: there is, I am looking | 23:17 |
| Nermal | thankyou | 23:17 |
| *** red-zack has quit IRC | 23:17 | |
| erstazi | ok on OS2006 (you have OS2007) its 12345 | 23:19 |
| erstazi | let me check for OS2007 now | 23:19 |
| sbz | nisse-: read http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/3.1/INSTALL.txt , then http://repository.maemo.org/stable/bora/INSTALL.txt , prefer the installation script method | 23:19 |
| pupnik | i thought nisse- already had scratchbox set up? | 23:19 |
| nisse- | Yes, I have one. | 23:19 |
| erstazi | Nermal: "Everything not on the memory card will be gone and the device will behave as if just purchased with the single exception that any previously-set lock code will be kept and not reset to the factory-default of "12345" (even the code is not preserved on some images)." | 23:20 |
| erstazi | Nermal: thats if you flash it, which you said you have | 23:20 |
| Nermal | ugh - so the code stays ? | 23:21 |
| erstazi | yes | 23:21 |
| Nermal | bugger | 23:21 |
| erstazi | Nermal: *or* you can take it to an authorized Nokia support store and have the device unlock | 23:21 |
| erstazi | or just take out the battery and put the battery back in and turn it back on | 23:21 |
| erstazi | at least that worked for me on my Nokia 770 | 23:21 |
| Nermal | hmm | 23:22 |
| * erstazi means the latter | 23:22 | |
| Nermal | will that lose any other info though ? | 23:22 |
| erstazi | Nermal: the first one will remove all info (except external drives) and the second will lose only data that you did not save | 23:22 |
| erstazi | like for say you have maemopad open and you didn't save what you typed/tapped | 23:23 |
| erstazi | I never taken it to an authorized nokia bla bla | 23:23 |
| *** pleemans has quit IRC | 23:24 | |
| Nermal | so removing the battery clears nothing but the code ? that seems a bit strange | 23:24 |
| erstazi | no no | 23:25 |
| erstazi | it doesn't reset the code | 23:25 |
| erstazi | but if you are stuck and cannot get out of the locked setting | 23:25 |
| erstazi | or maybe I was drunk that night | 23:25 |
| erstazi | ok, nevermind about the battery part | 23:25 |
| Nermal | ah - no it's unlocked - but I don't know the code | 23:25 |
| Nermal | sigh | 23:25 |
| erstazi | ah! | 23:25 |
| erstazi | ok | 23:25 |
| erstazi | 12345 is the default | 23:25 |
| Nermal | so I can't change it | 23:25 |
| Nermal | that's not workin | 23:25 |
| erstazi | Nermal: did you buy this off ebay or something? | 23:25 |
| Nermal | the perils of buying off ebay :D | 23:26 |
| * Nermal messages the seller to ask if he set one | 23:26 | |
| erstazi | contact the buyer and ask them | 23:26 |
| erstazi | I mean not the buyer but seller | 23:26 |
| Nermal | I flashed the latest image today but as you said it seems the code remains | 23:26 |
| Nermal | any lockout for entering the code incorrectly a number of times? | 23:26 |
| nisse- | My first moments with maemo have been quite nice. | 23:26 |
| * erstazi *was* a seller (not a buyer) for a long time so I think of people as only buyers | 23:26 | |
| nisse- | Thank you guys. | 23:26 |
| erstazi | nisse-: no prob | 23:26 |
| erstazi | Nermal: I never experienced it | 23:27 |
| Nermal | ok | 23:27 |
| erstazi | but good luck guessing that many combinations! | 23:27 |
| Nermal | I'll wait for a response and hope he knows | 23:27 |
| kulve | lardman: yes, this usually is too late for me (but I read backlogs usually) | 23:27 |
| erstazi | I don't know the max allowed characters | 23:27 |
| Nermal | a simple perl script surely ;) | 23:27 |
| tso | perfect, i may have broken a file used to track the status of apt-get, and i cant do anything about it as i need to be root :( | 23:27 |
| Nermal | about 8 | 23:27 |
| kulve | lardman: and no, I don't have a clue about packing.. | 23:27 |
| tso | grr, i dont want to reflash it | 23:27 |
| erstazi | Nermal: 8 sounds about right, I haven't changed mine in ages | 23:28 |
| pupnik | tso - yes you can fix dpkg-status | 23:29 |
| tso | thats what i get for never using debian :P | 23:30 |
| *** Pio has joined #maemo | 23:30 | |
| pupnik | /var/lib/dpkg/status and a backup is in status-old | 23:30 |
| tso | problem is that i do not have becomeroot or similar at hand. didnt install it :( | 23:30 |
| pupnik | can you ssh to the device? ssh root@127.0.0.1? | 23:31 |
| Nermal | raa | 23:31 |
| Nermal | maybe it's on another partition | 23:31 |
| *** ch4os_ has quit IRC | 23:32 | |
| tso | not a option either :( | 23:32 |
| Nermal | will changing the root / user password (because I'm installing sshd) affect anything ? (like gainroot etc) | 23:33 |
| tso | that is unless i can install one of those even if the status is broken :P | 23:37 |
| pupnik | Nermal: passwords should be set | 23:38 |
| pupnik | by you | 23:38 |
