IRC log of #maemo for Monday, 2007-10-29

devk-s[WORK]: I'll be there00:00
*** guardian_ has joined #maemo00:01
k-s[WORK]lauti: we want to, as well as a2dp00:02
k-s[WORK]lauti: but I'm not sure if it will be available in this first try00:02
k-s[WORK]lauti: however this release will keep living after it's released00:03
k-s[WORK]lauti: unlike previous version :-P00:03
k-s[WORK]lauti: and it support "options" per-screen, so one can easily write a plugin to support extra output devices00:03
lautik-s: would be cool, this would make it the killer00:03
k-s[WORK]and it will be in python00:04
k-s[WORK]:-)00:04
lautiand i could save a lot of time ;-)00:04
k-s[WORK]dev: present something or what?00:04
devk-s[WORK]: yeah, I'll talk about Coherence00:06
lautik-s: so canola has not yet been released officially?00:07
*** ijon_ has quit IRC00:08
*** matt_c has joined #maemo00:08
k-s[WORK]lauti: no, it's beta2 yet00:08
k-s[WORK]lauti: but we aborted that and rewrite it00:09
k-s[WORK]actually, we're still doing00:09
k-s[WORK]C -> Python00:09
k-s[WORK]SDL -> EFL00:09
*** ijon_ has joined #maemo00:09
*** L0c-[N800] has quit IRC00:09
k-s[WORK]hopefully it will be more powerful yet smaller (code base)00:09
rafli wonder how insecure a bluetooth keyboard would be. is there a way for others to sniff what i'm typing via bluetooth?00:10
k-s[WORK]rafl: bluetooth is usually secure00:10
raflhooray00:10
k-s[WORK]rafl: it operates on a number of channels00:10
k-s[WORK]and change among them very fast00:10
_Monkeyk-s[WORK]: that doesn't look right00:10
*** _Monkey has quit IRC00:10
*** _Monkey has joined #maemo00:11
k-s[WORK]thus it's hard to snif00:11
*** ebel_ has joined #maemo00:11
*** mk8 has joined #maemo00:11
k-s[WORK]you'd have to know the next frequency to snif00:11
mk8Hi to all ... :)00:11
k-s[WORK]_Monkey: ?00:11
_Monkeyk-s[work]: bugger all, i dunno00:11
*** ebel has quit IRC00:11
wumpusk-s[WORK]: or sniff them all, it's possible00:11
k-s[WORK]wumpus: but other device may be using the channel at that time00:12
wumpusjust google on bluetooth and security and you'll find some interesting stuff00:12
k-s[WORK]and thus you'd have a hard time doing that00:12
wumpusthey succeeded in hacking some general purpose bluetooth chipset to act as full band sniffer00:12
k-s[WORK]but it's possible, yes... hard to say something is impossible nowadays00:12
wumpusbut that doesn't defeat te encryption of course00:13
k-s[WORK]better ask holtmann when he's online at #bluez00:13
wumpusI think the host stacks are quite secure, but you can fool some devices in various ways00:13
wumpusthen again, non-bluetooth wireless keyboards are probably even less secure00:14
wumpusas bt at least enforces some security mechanism00:14

|RAnyone know of a very portable headset with mic that has more power than the cheapo nokia? (I couldn't hear anything unless i pushed them with my fingers very hard with the volume at max while outside... :|)07:58
|R(or a 3 pin to 4pin + mic adapter)08:07
c0ffeei'd hope the bt headset support would work soon08:13
|Rit was supported in OS2008 ?08:13
|Rs/was/is/08:13

|R... and if it is, i need all my apps to be ported too ;)08:14
|Rand then find a headset...08:14
*** unique311 has joined #maemo08:14

Rask330<pupnik> crap, the commodore pet used a BASIC licensed from... Bill Gates   <-  Why crap? X)08:23
Rask330Most compies of the day did that.08:23
Rask330For some reason, no one else knew how to write BASIC interpreters but MS.08:23
*** pleemans has joined #maemo08:23
Rask330I don't know why...08:23
wumpusyeah my favourite computer back in the days, the MSX, had MS software too, seems even then they had some kind of monopoly :/08:25
cesmanBecause M$ was chosen by IBM.  If it is good enough for IBM, it is good enough for us.  That is my theory at any rate...08:25
*** Astro has quit IRC08:27
wumpusthen again, back in the time software was written specifically to perform well on that kind of hardware, so it wasn't the monster of their today OS's yet :)08:27

|Rwell, if apt-get works, application manager should have worked09:21
|R(at least i think... i did most install by hand though ;)09:22
raflwhat graphics hardware does the n800 have and what kind of output driver does it use? I wonder if one would be able to get some slow gl rendering using mesa.09:24
pupniksomeone built mesa for it, and no - forget it09:24
pupnikthere are software engines that run fast and are open source09:25
pupnikquake 1, quake 2, descent (d2x), and the duke nukem engine09:25
rafltoo bad.. no libclutter then :-(09:26
pupnikneostrider has also written a 3d engine from the ground up for maemo - see the angstron project on garage09:27
raflaye09:27
pupnikfor pocket GL + linux, it's either N900 or Craiginator in 200809:28
pupnikneither is a sure bet tho09:29
pupnikbut just for a benchmark reference, there's a Quake 3 arena running at 25 fps on the Dell axim with 624mhz xscale and Powervr mbx09:31

pupnikfrom the pictures, OS2008 does alpha compositing - might be interesting to see how when it comes out09:33

hell_homeso, what can i install, that i can run in emulator? Some different from hello world app11:10
Jaffadisq: this from 770-encode? GeneralAntilles (IIRC) had a similar problem on Mac OS X for no good or apparent reason. You could try `770-encode -m-v -m-v input output' to increase mencoder's verbosity11:10
disqi think it's mencoder11:11

lardmanyep, I need to look through the kernel code and see how much memory it tries to share for the framebuffer - It may be that it allocates less than 0x100000, in which case lots of TLBs would be needed. But it works on the 770...13:28

lardmanNokia use soft-float, but if you compile with the right flags (-mfpu=vfp -mfloat-abi=softfp) you too can use hw fp. Make sure you compile libm again though17:14

alteregoIF it's that easy, just do a ./configure make make install yourself.17:24
czrlardman, thanks. mainly thinking about 2d vector graphics wrt the fp stuff17:24
lardmanalterego: compare the omap2420 processor type to the variant type that ARM say has the vfp unit (then look at the benchmarks ;) )17:24

lardmanczr: but I'd test rather than take the optimisation flags at face value, I don't know how the optimisation works, but I presume it's tailored to the code17:28
sciboyalterego: Ultimately though, in order to do decent animation/framerates on it I'd need to get it pixel-doubling.17:29
czrlardman, well, I know how gcc batters the code around for x86 with different flags. let's just say that I was suprised to see that the results are in line with expectations that I have on x86 with the different levels.17:29

*** sciboy has quit IRC17:31

czrlardman, they normally just enable/disable a bunch of other optimization flags17:31
lardmanare the groupings the same across platforms? presumably not17:32
czrthe funny bit is that with each gcc version, you'll need to rerun the benchmarks if you really are trying to find the "ultimateh combination". just not worth it most of the time.17:32
czrmostly yes17:32
czrmost of the optimizations are architecture neutral.17:32

zoranI _really_ liek it19:49
sciboyThen they'll drop it faster than a hot 770.19:49
alteregoAnd with 2008HE being released for it I don't see why people should stop using it.19:49

szucsatithe display's color is "cold", colder than 770 was22:14
alterego1) it's smaller than you thought. 2) It's heavier.22:14
alteregoI'm not sure what you mean by "colder".22:15
szucsatiand the wifi produces huge packet losses...22:15
alteregoWoah,22:15
alteregoThat that's interesting.22:15
alteregoI think you should probably get it looked at.22:15
alteregoUnless the packet loss is not related to the N80022:15
robl^could be the WAP22:16
szucsaticold: you know you can adjust your monitor's colour profile, there are cold and warm profiles.. so basically blue and red22:16
alteregoHow are you testing for packet loss?22:16
chxhttp://www.bell.ca/shop/en_CA_AB/Sme.Sol.Wireless.Hardware.Novatel.U720.page would something like this work with the N8x0 ? With a power injector hack, maybe using a http://www.bixnet.com/5v7libapa.html battery like this?22:16

alteregoThe 770 has some weird film over it too.22:37
szucsatiyes, but sometimes webpages just doesn't work, but they do on my pc at the same time22:37

a2eeI'm an old die-hard Palm user, and having a working POSE port in the N800 would make migrating to it really irresistible ;-)23:33

alteregoI don't think I could get the IR working either.23:38
amrlol23:38
a2eeL0c-[N800]: It's a palm emulator, but not just for developers :-) In fact, when my palm IIIxe died an untimely death a few years ago, I brought up POSE on my laptop and restored my Palm backups into it... was able to go on palming while the replacement didn't arrive23:38
alteregoThough I didn't actually try.23:39
a2eePOSE on a linux laptop is quite usable, my question is whether that's the case on a N80023:39
