timelyx | Jaffa: for another one which some origins don't recognize, http://viper.haque.net/~timeless/blog/138/ | 00:00 |
timelyx | it's sad, i wrote that on friday, but when i showed it to a coworker, i realized that she wouldn't get it | 00:00 |
alterego | Ugly XP theme. | 00:01 |
Jaffa | alterego: meh, software's hackable. Hardware's cheap. Smaller than a Psion netBook. What's not to like? | 00:01 |
tigert | timelyx: well, you pretty much could expect that | 00:02 |
timelyx | tigert: yeah sure | 00:02 |
tigert | timelyx: it was stretching waaaay too many cultural boundaries | 00:02 |
suihkulokki | Jaffa: display resolution/dpi | 00:02 |
*** Deformati is now known as Deformative | 00:02 | |
*** lmoura has quit IRC | 00:02 | |
Jaffa | suihkulokki: 800x480, 7" diagonal, IIRC. | 00:02 |
suihkulokki | other than that, very attractive | 00:02 |
timelyx | but it's easier for me to expect you not to recognize my fair lady | 00:02 |
tigert | timelyx: it made me realize we assume things too easily | 00:02 |
timelyx | than it is for me to realize that she wouldn't get it | 00:02 |
tigert | timelyx: havent read it | 00:02 |
* timelyx nods | 00:03 | |
alterego | Yeah | 00:03 |
*** bergie has joined #maemo | 00:03 | |
timelyx | watch the movie | 00:03 |
alterego | That resolution is a push. | 00:03 |
alterego | If it was touch screen I'd stick maemo on it. | 00:03 |
Jaffa | alterego: indeed. I believe you can get more usable info on a 7" 800x480 screen than you can on a 4" 800x480 screen, though. | 00:03 |
Jaffa | alterego: I'd still be tempted to play with Hildon on it. | 00:03 |
alterego | I don't see how. | 00:03 |
alterego | Yeah, Hildon would suit it fine. | 00:04 |
alterego | That's what it's designed for after all ;) | 00:04 |
tigert | timelyx: I will watch that, if you watch this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048752/ | 00:04 |
timelyx | tigert: it's sad though, you'd think by now, i'd know better | 00:04 |
alterego | Would make a good device for those Ubuntu mobile kids. | 00:04 |
*** philipl has joined #maemo | 00:04 | |
timelyx | i mean, i have learned that people don't know translations for animals/vegetables | 00:04 |
* timelyx grumbles | 00:05 | |
tigert | timelyx: for some vegetables or animals | 00:05 |
timelyx | well, i sort of know "don't bother asking a local: what's this fish?" | 00:05 |
tigert | everyone knows what an apple or orange is | 00:05 |
timelyx | i'm lucky if they'll say "it's white" | 00:05 |
tigert | pomegranate or such is harder already :) | 00:05 |
Jaffa | alterego: the pixels are bigger so you don't need as many to form a recognisable glyph. See, for example, how much more info you can see on a Psion netBook's ~7" 640x480 screen than you can on an N800's 800x480 screen (without straining your eyes). Obviously, some people's eyesight is better than others, but... | 00:05 |
*** etrunko has quit IRC | 00:05 | |
alterego | I think I'll wait to see what they do with it. | 00:05 |
tigert | Jaffa: yeah, design for physical size is what we've been pondering a lot lately | 00:06 |
alterego | Mainly the new devices they're saying wil be released in April next year | 00:06 |
timelyx | tigert: | 00:06 |
timelyx | Plot Synopsis: | 00:06 |
timelyx | This plot synopsis is empty. Add a synopsis | 00:06 |
alterego | With lower power CPU's which means they can remove the Fan. | 00:06 |
tigert | timelyx: war story | 00:06 |
alterego | Then I'd think about getting one. | 00:06 |
Jaffa | tigert: oh? intriguing. | 00:06 |
tigert | timelyx: its THE finnish WW II movie | 00:06 |
timelyx | tigert: you have it? i'll watch, but if it isn't available in English, you get to translate :) | 00:06 |
tigert | timelyx: I would guess it is subtitled | 00:07 |
tigert | the dvd got to exist in somewhere | 00:07 |
tigert | lets find one | 00:07 |
lopz | re | 00:07 |
tigert | Jaffa: thats what ubuntu mobile needs to do too, if they want to support different devices and different screens | 00:07 |
tigert | Jaffa: and it is hard with pixmap theming :P | 00:07 |
* timelyx shoots our themers ;-) | 00:08 | |
tigert | though I guess one could render the svg theme template to different size and transform the coordinates | 00:08 |
timelyx | it's ok. you're so far down the line, i won't have ammo by the time i reach you :) | 00:08 |
tigert | that would be pretty interesting thing to try btw | 00:08 |
tigert | to scale the whole ui in build time | 00:08 |
tigert | timelyx: hey, shoot Tommi :) | 00:08 |
tigert | he created it | 00:08 |
timelyx | tigert: i think i'd run out of bullets if i started with maps | 00:09 |
tigert | or was part of it, I am just trying to keep it running with michael | 00:09 |
tigert | anyway | 00:09 |
tigert | back to weekend :D | 00:09 |
alterego | Keep what running? | 00:09 |
timelyx | theming | 00:09 |
alterego | Eesh, maemo theming is a mess :P | 00:09 |
timelyx | alterego: that's on a good day | 00:09 |
alterego | Hah | 00:09 |
tigert | timelyx: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGkctbhkGvE :) | 00:10 |
tigert | timelyx: no subtitles though, so it'll be gibberish for you | 00:10 |
timelyx | ok, you get to translate | 00:10 |
timelyx | i'll buy the popcorn, dinner, drinks, whatever | 00:10 |
tigert | hehe | 00:10 |
zerojay | Sounds like fun. | 00:10 |
tigert | I mean, this youtube link | 00:10 |
tigert | I am pretty sure the dvd has | 00:11 |
zerojay | Send me the plane tickets. :) | 00:11 |
*** blassey has joined #maemo | 00:11 | |
timelyx | zerojay: i can offer a place to sleep, but tickets are moderately pricy | 00:11 |
* timelyx is still stinging from 2 days w/o credit | 00:11 | |
alterego | For instance, what on earth is with no expand/colapse indicators in the tree view? | 00:12 |
timelyx | you mean things that'd typically be +/- on some platforms? | 00:12 |
alterego | It's annoying me now >:( | 00:12 |
alterego | What should be arrows in Gtk. | 00:12 |
alterego | Well, triangles. | 00:12 |
timelyx | we have them integrated into the icons | 00:12 |
timelyx | it's a space thing | 00:12 |
alterego | O_o | 00:12 |
timelyx | look at the root device | 00:13 |
tigert | alterego: forget trees anyway :P | 00:13 |
alterego | Can't you leave that choice to the application developers? | 00:13 |
timelyx | or the documents folder if you have a folder in it | 00:13 |
tigert | too small on the screen :( | 00:13 |
timelyx | alterego: they're trying to kill trees | 00:13 |
timelyx | and given how horribly slow they are | 00:13 |
alterego | Who're they? | 00:13 |
timelyx | you shouldn't use them ;-) | 00:13 |
tigert | well | 00:13 |
timelyx | desktop/ui engs | 00:13 |
* timelyx shrugs | 00:13 | |
timelyx | i can't give a list of names, that's probably a secret :) | 00:14 |
alterego | Got a better idea for displaying a tree? | 00:14 |
tigert | gtktreeview is one insane widget | 00:14 |
tigert | alterego: what app is this? | 00:14 |
timelyx | what are you trying to show? | 00:14 |
alterego | I need something to display a DOM | 00:14 |
timelyx | g-d | 00:14 |
tigert | on the N800?? | 00:14 |
alterego | Obviously. | 00:14 |
tigert | wtf are you doing?= :) | 00:14 |
timelyx | 1. install cairo | 00:14 |
Stalwart | web development i guess | 00:14 |
alterego | I'm writing an XML editor :P | 00:14 |
timelyx | 2. rotate the screen 90 degrees | 00:15 |
zerojay | in ruby? | 00:15 |
tigert | alterego: why do you want to edit xml on a handheld? | 00:15 |
alterego | zerojay, naturally. | 00:15 |
alterego | tigert, why wouldn't I? | 00:15 |
timelyx | alterego: no one in their right mind would want to edit xml anywhere | 00:15 |
Stalwart | tigert, you want him to install eclipse on n800? :D | 00:15 |
alterego | Well, that I can sympathise with ;) | 00:15 |
timelyx | Stalwart: will he port java for us first? | 00:16 |
timelyx | sounds good to me | 00:16 |
Stalwart | timelyx, isn't it possible? | 00:16 |
zerojay | No, please. | 00:16 |
alterego | I'm developing in the maemo 4 SDK anyhow. So cairo is already here :P | 00:16 |
zerojay | Eclipse 5 days a week is enough for me as is. | 00:16 |
timelyx | alterego: seriously, you want to use the screen that way, not the default way | 00:16 |
alterego | God, I'm the ruby-maemo guy. I'm not going to touch Java :P | 00:16 |
alterego | Scheme is my next goal ^_^ | 00:16 |
alterego | timelyx, is that even possible with maemo? | 00:17 |
timelyx | anything's possible w/ cairo | 00:17 |
timelyx | but you're basically drawing w/ cairo | 00:17 |
alterego | Does maemo4 support it? | 00:17 |
timelyx | full screen, manual drawing | 00:17 |
alterego | :/ | 00:17 |
Stalwart | anything is possible on zombo.com (c) #fedora | 00:17 |
timelyx | maemo1 supports full screen apps | 00:17 |
alterego | Screw that. | 00:17 |
alterego | I meant screen rotation. Which isn't what you're talkinga bout at all :P | 00:17 |
timelyx | maemo15 might support long displays | 00:17 |
Stalwart | 15? o.O | 00:18 |
timelyx | or rotated, however you want to think about it | 00:18 |
timelyx | expect it to be ready by 2030 | 00:18 |
Stalwart | i guess maemo15 will support neural connections :D | 00:18 |
alterego | Heh. | 00:18 |
alterego | Wouldn't take me that long .. | 00:18 |
timelyx | Stalwart: frying them maybe | 00:18 |
Stalwart | then you'll be able to get zombo.com right in YOUR BRAIN | 00:18 |
Stalwart | a thing to dream of | 00:19 |
timelyx | alterego: actually rotation is wishlisted | 00:19 |
timelyx | with a lot of luck, prayers, and better hardware, it could be here in 10 years :) | 00:19 |
alterego | Rubbish. | 00:19 |
alterego | You could do it in a couple of months if you wanted to. | 00:19 |
tigert | alterego: you could do a nice xml editor in the ipod ui way :) | 00:19 |
timelyx | i'm a browser engineer, i couldn't :) | 00:19 |
tigert | just browse through the tree :) | 00:20 |
alterego | ipod UI? | 00:20 |
alterego | I don't have an iPod. | 00:20 |
tigert | ie, finger-pressable menu structure without a real tree, | 00:20 |
timelyx | basically you only see one level at a time | 00:20 |
timelyx | to go down, you go right | 00:20 |
timelyx | to go up, you go left | 00:20 |
alterego | Oh, a menu. | 00:20 |
_Monkey | well, a menu is on the keyboard | 00:20 |
tigert | but just press a node and it scrolls right to open the child :) | 00:20 |
tigert | etc | 00:20 |
timelyx | _Monkey forget menu | 00:20 |
_Monkey | timelyx: I forgot menu | 00:20 |
alterego | I think I'll do something similar to the media player in maemo. | 00:20 |
zerojay | _Monkey: STFU | 00:20 |
_Monkey | zerojay: huh? | 00:20 |
Stalwart | not usable | 00:20 |
timelyx | _Monkey menu is <reply> | 00:20 |
_Monkey | OK, timelyx. | 00:20 |
alterego | A menu with a path area at the top. | 00:20 |
timelyx | _Monkey stfu is <reply> yes sir | 00:20 |
_Monkey | OK, timelyx. | 00:20 |
tigert | then on a leaf you could have "edit" etc :) | 00:20 |
alterego | Kind of like: http://maemo.rubyx.co.uk | 00:21 |
zerojay | from now on, I'm just going to make Monkey forget everything when it speaks. | 00:21 |
timelyx | tigert: too bad you need to be able to edit non leafs | 00:21 |
*** bergie has quit IRC | 00:21 | |
alterego | I like that path bar .. | 00:21 |
tigert | timelyx: perhaps it could have a small toolbar with few buttons | 00:21 |
tigert | alterego: yeah, something like that site | 00:21 |
timelyx | alterego: be warned | 00:21 |
timelyx | xml node names can be fairly wide :) | 00:22 |
suihkulokki | I love how neither ipod nor ipod touch ui have absolutely no popup/transistent windows | 00:22 |
*** NickDe has joined #maemo | 00:22 | |
tigert | you want to truncate with ellipsis ;D | 00:22 |
timelyx | suihkulokki: designed by people with common sense | 00:22 |
*** sx|lappy has joined #maemo | 00:22 | |
timelyx | that's why we think different :) | 00:22 |
tigert | alterego: the problem with most N800 apps is | 00:22 |
tigert | they are trying to be like on the desktop | 00:22 |
tigert | but the screen is way too small for that | 00:22 |
timelyx | tigert: eh | 00:22 |
tigert | and you get fooled by the resolution to think its bigger | 00:22 |
timelyx | we have more dialogs/info things than any desktop i've ever met | 00:23 |
tigert | timelyx: my point exactly :) | 00:23 |
timelyx | it got worse w/ n810 | 00:23 |
tigert | and hey | 00:23 |
timelyx | namely map. | 00:23 |
* timelyx sighs | 00:23 | |
alterego | I'm aware of the constraints :P | 00:23 |
tigert | its a *mobile* device | 00:23 |
timelyx | alterego: clearly the ui people weren't | 00:23 |
tigert | what freaks me out a bit very often | 00:23 |
alterego | Maybe you're right. | 00:23 |
tigert | is when people seem to just use it on their desk next to the laptop | 00:23 |
alterego | I should just use a jazzy menu syste, | 00:24 |
alterego | ~system. | 00:24 |
tigert | and think its cool to make it work like their laptop | 00:24 |
timelyx | tigert: we want to sell it as a replacement for laptops | 00:24 |
tigert | but its a fscking MOBILE device | 00:24 |
timelyx | somehow nokia managed to get a laptop award with it... | 00:24 |
* timelyx grumbles | 00:24 | |
tigert | no we dont | 00:24 |
alterego | I use it for internet. | 00:24 |
timelyx | tigert: we = some manager above osso | 00:24 |
alterego | d | 00:24 |
timelyx | L( | 00:24 |
tigert | the fact its listed on amazon as top selling laptop is not a reason to think of it as one :D | 00:24 |
timelyx | :) | 00:24 |
tigert | sure, its a *computer* and not a phone, yeah yeah | 00:25 |
tigert | but it is a *mobile* thing | 00:25 |
timelyx | tigert: people clearly didn't get that memo :( | 00:25 |
tigert | you dont really do the same things on a mobile device | 00:25 |
alterego | I use it for surfing, and IM | 00:25 |
zerojay | It's cut the amount of time I spend on my PC by about 60%. It's getting lonely. | 00:25 |
tigert | you go on the bus, you chat with a friend on IM | 00:25 |
alterego | It's also my portable media player. | 00:25 |
tigert | you check directions to his home | 00:25 |
alterego | And email client. | 00:25 |
tigert | to see him for dinner | 00:25 |
tigert | etc | 00:25 |
zerojay | same here. | 00:25 |
tigert | you listen to music / webradio | 00:25 |
tigert | on the starbucks | 00:25 |
tigert | etc | 00:25 |
alterego | I read PDF's on it and I use it to make notes. | 00:26 |
tigert | or whatever | 00:26 |
_Monkey | whatever is fun for you. More power to ya | 00:26 |
tigert | but its not something you HACK on | 00:26 |
tigert | :) | 00:26 |
timelyx | _Monkey forget whatever | 00:26 |
_Monkey | timelyx: I forgot whatever | 00:26 |
timelyx | _Monkey whatever is <reply> | 00:26 |
_Monkey | OK, timelyx. | 00:26 |
alterego | Sometimes I have to hack through it. | 00:26 |
zerojay | Would "forget *" work? | 00:26 |
tigert | its fun for us, the geeks, to do things like this | 00:26 |
timelyx | no | 00:26 |
zerojay | Damn. | 00:26 |
tigert | but it really makes more sense to use it as a mobile communication tool | 00:26 |
timelyx | zerojay: you can grep through logs | 00:26 |
timelyx | it's easy to recognize when it learned something | 00:26 |
tigert | I love the thing while I commute to work | 00:26 |
timelyx | i've done that once or twice | 00:26 |
tigert | same thing applies to bluetooth keyboards and such | 00:27 |
timelyx | you can see me do it when all of a sudden i start telling it to forget things w/o context | 00:27 |
tigert | try to use those while standing in a train | 00:27 |
timelyx | tigert: you must be confused | 00:27 |
timelyx | i always sit on trains :) | 00:27 |
tigert | bluetooth keyboard is teh insanity and should be just destroyed from the face of earth :) | 00:27 |
timelyx | of course, then i just use my laptop :) | 00:28 |
tigert | timelyx: yeah but not on commuter trains I guess? | 00:28 |
zerojay | The best thing about my N800 is how I sometimes get e-mail and messages without having a phone connection... just happens to connect randomly to some wifi router in the area. | 00:28 |
timelyx | if you mean subway/metro, maybe | 00:28 |
tigert | zerojay: yeah :) | 00:28 |
timelyx | but if the commuter train takes longer than 20mins, i'm sitting | 00:28 |
tigert | timelyx: sure I usually sit | 00:29 |
tigert | if there is space | 00:29 |
tigert | but I dont really use a laptop in the bus for example even when I sit | 00:29 |
alterego | Heh | 00:29 |
* timelyx ndos | 00:29 | |
timelyx | bah | 00:29 |
tigert | it's like sending / getting sms'es | 00:29 |
timelyx | anyway, on regional trains, i used to use my laptops | 00:29 |
tigert | but its jabber on the go | 00:29 |
tigert | whcih is nice | 00:29 |
*** pupnik_ has joined #maemo | 00:30 | |
zerojay | I was about 10 minutes away from home after leaving work early.. I got an MSN message from a coworker asking me how to commit to SVN. I told him to come to my desk. Boy was she ever fucking confused when she got there to see me not at my desk. I was sitting in a park laughing my ass off. | 00:30 |
tigert | timelyx: I rather not get those funny looks from people :) | 00:30 |
timelyx | tigert: Amtrak from DC to NY | 00:30 |
zerojay | told her to come to my desk.. blah. | 00:30 |
timelyx | you don't get funny looks | 00:30 |
tigert | zerojay: last week I was late from a meeting | 00:30 |
timelyx | you're in a car w/ a dozen or more other people doing the same thing | 00:30 |
tigert | a coworked msged me with the same problem | 00:30 |
tigert | we were on our way to work | 00:30 |
tigert | luckily he remembered the meeting room number | 00:30 |
tigert | so I got it from him while on the go | 00:30 |
tigert | and could go there directly | 00:30 |
tigert | that is what I mean | 00:31 |
timelyx | same along the SJ=>SF corridor | 00:31 |
tigert | or seeing whats going on in IRC when going off work | 00:31 |
tigert | to see if people are planning some beers etc | 00:31 |
tigert | its all about communication for me | 00:31 |
alterego | Or panning your demise :P | 00:31 |
timelyx | irc on our devices doesn't really work | 00:31 |
timelyx | you can't attach to a conversation already in progress w/o screen | 00:31 |
alterego | No, I can't dig IRC on the tablets. | 00:31 |
tigert | timelyx: it TOTALLY does work | 00:32 |
timelyx | and our behavior w/ screen is such a disaster | 00:32 |
tigert | you just want screen + irssi | 00:32 |
tigert | and ssh | 00:32 |
timelyx | i use that. | 00:32 |
alterego | It's okay with pidgin .. | 00:32 |
timelyx | it's a royal pain | 00:32 |
timelyx | otoh, i use 770/n800 | 00:32 |
timelyx | and the stupid VKB keeps forcing full updates | 00:32 |
tigert | I used it on N800 a lot | 00:32 |
timelyx | because it pops up and then hides | 00:32 |
zerojay | I was sitting in a nice little park near work on a hot day... my feet in a shallow waterpool, closing bugs while bitching to coworkers about how bad some of our testers can be. | 00:32 |
tigert | use thumb kbd | 00:32 |
timelyx | and the screen constantly resizes | 00:32 |
zerojay | What a great day. | 00:32 |
zerojay | I love my N800. | 00:32 |
tigert | zerojay: yeah :) | 00:33 |
alterego | If I get another device I'll probably use it as a remote control for my N800 | 00:33 |
timelyx | zerojay: w/ the n810 you can use it while not in the shade :) | 00:33 |
timelyx | or so the rumor goes | 00:33 |
tigert | it's this "be wherever you want, but you are around" without hauling the laptop along -thing that is nice | 00:33 |
timelyx | it was snowing today | 00:33 |
timelyx | we won't be able to test until may | 00:33 |
tigert | timelyx: haha | 00:33 |
alterego | N800 has oodles of storage capacity and makes a good media player. I'd use another tablet as a remote for it so it didn't have to come out of my trouser pocket. | 00:33 |
timelyx | tigert: i keep saying it, but you know it's true | 00:33 |
zerojay | timelyx: and without a virtual keyboard either. My N800's got light circular marks from me using the virtual keyboard so much. | 00:34 |
tigert | zerojay: yeah | 00:34 |
tigert | in a grid | 00:34 |
timelyx | zerojay: my 't' key is busted on my laptop | 00:34 |
zerojay | Staggered grid, yep. | 00:34 |
alterego | My screen protector is scratched to death :) | 00:34 |
zerojay | timelyx: Hehe. I remember. | 00:34 |
timelyx | i was also among the first to really wear the n800 proto screens :) | 00:34 |
timelyx | otoh, they claim that's "fixed" | 00:35 |
* timelyx still hasn't installed system software w/ that "fix" | 00:35 | |
Robot101 | timelyx: it's pretty impressive difference actually | 00:35 |
timelyx | the fix supposedly makes web browsing (among other things) much more painful :) | 00:35 |
alterego | I think the scroll area is the worst for wear on my protector. | 00:35 |
zerojay | Every single scrach on my screen comes from the stylus. | 00:35 |
alterego | It doesn't bother me enough to get a new one though. | 00:35 |

skibur | I'm looking for MC on Maemo.org and I find it, but I can't download it | 01:08 |
timelyx | welcome to maemo.org :) | 01:08 |
skibur | BUT, I can find it on my Nokia N800 Application manager. | 01:08 |
alterego | tigert, yeah. Pretty much. | 01:08 |
skibur | Where is the Manager pulling the application download from? | 01:09 |
timelyx | skibur: you can view the catalog list in the tools menu or something | 01:10 |
legind | when trying to install kagu, I get this: File "/usr/lib/kagu/remote.py", line 15, in remote / os.mkfifo(FIFO) #create fifo / OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory | 01:11 |
skibur | yeah I know, but where are the updates coming from? | 01:11 |
legind | any ideas? | 01:11 |
legind | or, that's trying to *run* kagu. | 01:12 |
alterego | It's typical really. I work really hard on getting ruby-maemo up and running so I can build cool apps for maemo in Ruby. And now it's at the stage where it's very usable I can't think of anything to create :/ | 01:14 |
timelyx | see, you should have thought of that before you spent time porting/packaging something no one actually uses =b | 01:17 |
alterego | :( | 01:18 |
alterego | The porting took no time. | 01:18 |
alterego | It was binding it to the various libraries that make Maemo that took the time :P | 01:18 |

* Jaffa thought the exact opposite after playing with a both: here's a well-thought out device with attention to detail. Some of the corners of IT OS 2007, in comparison, are just a little crufty... | 11:47 | |

*** sx|lappy has quit IRC | 13:05 | |

alterego | eichi, do you have scratchbox installed? | 13:52 |
eichi | no | 13:53 |
alterego | Well, check the Maemo SDK out. | 13:54 |

alterego | How else would you expect to develop software for Maemo? | 13:54 |
eichi | i never did development fĆ¼r an device | 13:56 |

xadap | can I ask a simple question? | 14:29 |
alterego | Only if it really is simple ;) | 14:30 |
xadap | haha | 14:30 |
xadap | look | 14:30 |
xadap | tomorrow i'll have a nokia 770 at home | 14:31 |
alterego | Cool | 14:31 |
xadap | i know its operating system is based on linux | 14:31 |
alterego | Yes, debian Linux | 14:31 |
xadap | but since reviews say that it's quite poor, i wanted to improve it | 14:32 |
SLi | GNU/Linux ;) </troll> | 14:32 |
xadap | i've seen the maemo project | 14:32 |
xadap | i'm sorry lol | 14:32 |
SLi | What's poor? | 14:32 |
alterego | Reviews have said what's poor? | 14:32 |
alterego | I thought the maemo reviews have been good .. | 14:32 |
xadap | it looks like the software available when you acquire it | 14:32 |
alterego | Overall. | 14:32 |
xadap | yeah,, the reviews about maemo are excellent | 14:33 |
alterego | Yes, the software is somewhat limited. | 14:33 |
alterego | There are some really good packages though .. | 14:33 |
xadap | so, is maemo kind of another operating system, based on debian too? | 14:33 |
alterego | Kind of yes. | 14:34 |
alterego | Targeted at embedded devices. | 14:34 |
xadap | that's what i was looking for,then | 14:34 |
SLi | Mm, it's not an another OS really. | 14:34 |
xadap | so, do you know any tutorial that explains where to start when i get my nokia? | 14:34 |
SLi | Just supplemental packages for the Nokia provided system. | 14:34 |
alterego | Try the tutorials on maemo.org :) | 14:35 |
SLi | I have an N800 with OS2007, I must say the email client that came with it is useless, the RSS reader shows really often old stuff as new and crashes often, the browser crashes often, but other than those things, the system seems pretty solid. | 14:35 |
xadap | on mameo website i've seen developing stuff :P | 14:35 |
alterego | Hah | 14:35 |
alterego | Yeah, I don't like the email or RSS client much either. | 14:35 |
alterego | The browser doesn't crash too often for me. | 14:35 |
alterego | I have other issues with the browser. | 14:35 |
alterego | Well, what were you looking for? | 14:36 |
xadap | a guide that explains what do i do after buying the device, from a user point of view | 14:36 |
SLi | I consider it somewhat ironic that old stuff on the garage.maemo.org (which AFAIK is maintained by Nokia) RSS feed is nearly always displayed as new in Nokia's own RSS reader :P | 14:36 |
alterego | Use it? | 14:36 |
xadap | i've only found developing documentation | 14:37 |
SLi | Well, it's a pretty full-fledged Linux. | 14:37 |
xadap | not a manual about maemo | 14:37 |
xadap | but a guide to install it | 14:37 |
alterego | Well, a manual comes with the device. | 14:37 |
*** _Kili_ has quit IRC | 14:37 | |
alterego | It's already installed. | 14:37 |
* alterego is confused. | 14:38 | |
xadap | mee to :P | 14:38 |
xadap | I thought I had to install something completely different | 14:38 |
xadap | like flashing the device | 14:38 |
alterego | Your best bet is to just ask what you would like to do and we point you in the right direction ;) | 14:38 |
alterego | Ah, you can update the 770 to a newer OS if need be. | 14:38 |
xadap | that's what i want! :D | 14:39 |
alterego | The flashing instructions are on the Wiki | 14:39 |
xadap | http://maemo.org/community/wiki/ | 14:39 |
xadap | his one? | 14:39 |
xadap | this* | 14:39 |
alterego | You'll want to update it to OS2007 HE (hacker edition) | 14:39 |
alterego | Yes | 14:39 |
alterego | flashing | 14:39 |
alterego | flasher | 14:39 |

L0c-|Mobile| | ciao lopz | 17:22 |
lopz | hola | 17:22 |
_Monkey | hi, lopz | 17:22 |
alterego | It'd be wise to have a good overview of Hildon and the Maemo platform. | 17:22 |
alterego | Read all my random ramblings in what little documentation I have. | 17:22 |
alterego | When unsure about the API check the source :) | 17:22 |
alterego | I'll write a tutorial soon I promise :) | 17:23 |
L0c-|Mobile| | i need also to learn ruby... so you have time ;) | 17:23 |
L0c-|Mobile| | so i need to learn ruby, than gtk, than learn about maemo ? | 17:25 |
alterego | Yes, that would be a good way to go. | 17:25 |
alterego | Though Gtk/maemo can be learned in parallel. | 17:25 |
halley | I think the "download a project, learn to build it, then figure out what every file is FOR" route works best. :) | 17:26 |
alterego | Heh | 17:26 |
alterego | Can't say I've ever taken that approach. | 17:27 |
halley | I've never learned a language by picking up the book and starting at page 1. | 17:27 |
alterego | No, I can't say I've done that either. | 17:28 |
alterego | Well, actually. | 17:28 |
alterego | SICP .. | 17:28 |
halley | I gotta say, I learned a lot in electrical engineering when we implemented a microprocessor from discrete logic. But after that, it's all "I want to do this, that thing almost does this, what can I tweak?" style learning. | 17:29 |
alterego | Yeah, I'm a grounds up kind of guy. | 17:30 |
alterego | I don't tweak other peoples apps, but I'm happy to use their libraries. | 17:30 |
alterego | In an ideal world MVC would make that very easy indeed :) | 17:30 |
alterego | Porting applications would be pretty simple and just require work building custom UI's. | 17:31 |
halley | I think mvc is overrated; model/interface is usually enough. | 17:31 |
halley | Separating view from controller tends to get in the way of natural interaction. | 17:31 |
alterego | Well, I disagree .. | 17:31 |
alterego | When a project gets big enough. If the view hasn't naturally decoupled itself from control logic then you're going to have problems. | 17:32 |
alterego | Sure, they're very close. But a view should only hold internal logic. It should know anything about the actual application. | 17:32 |

halley | Their current laptop kbs suck. | 22:40 |
gnarvaez | I am able to touch type at a good rate on it. | 22:40 |
gnarvaez | maybe, but we are on keyboards.... | 22:40 |
alterego | /apps/osso/applet/hwkeyboard/repeat_interval | 22:40 |
p| | 'sera | 22:40 |
alterego | It defaults to 160ms by the look of it. | 22:40 |
gnarvaez | alterego, thanks.... let me look | 22:40 |

p| | <gnarvaez> the problem I am finding is that the key repeat rate and delay are too short, thereby producing an unnaceptable amount of repeat errors. I am trying to find a way to control this, but to no avail so far | 22:43 |
p| | unresolvable... | 22:43 |
p| | the same thing happens on my bt keyboard | 22:43 |
alterego | p|, see what I just said. | 22:43 |
alterego | It's in gconf | 22:43 |
p| | no | 22:43 |
p| | i've changed that parms | 22:43 |
p| | whithout success | 22:44 |
alterego | O_o | 22:44 |
p| | i've set at 10.000/2.000 | 22:44 |
p| | and the problem persist | 22:44 |
alterego | It doesn't accept floating point. | 22:44 |
alterego | And that's 10ms | 22:44 |
p| | but ONLY when i'm using a bt phone as internet connection together with bt keyb | 22:45 |
*** loaderr has joined #maemo | 22:45 | |
alterego | Oh, that's probably a different issue then. | 22:45 |
p| | alterego: i've set 10000/2000 | 22:45 |
alterego | Interference between the devices. | 22:45 |
p| | :) | 22:45 |
p| | there are 2 params | 22:45 |
alterego | Will likely cause disruption if they're on the same channels. | 22:45 |
alterego | Yes p| I'm aware there are delay and repeat options. | 22:46 |
p| | any chance to change chennel number ? | 22:46 |
p| | channel* | 22:46 |
alterego | Manually. | 22:46 |
p| | where ? | 22:46 |
alterego | You'd have to setup the BT connection between one of the devices in the console. | 22:46 |
p| | isn't configurable in some cfg file legacy to bt address ? | 22:47 |
*** sx|lappy has joined #maemo | 22:48 | |
alterego | Possibly. | 22:48 |
alterego | It some configuration file in /etc | 22:48 |
alterego | Maybe under the bluetooth directory. | 22:49 |
p| | i'll take a look | 22:49 |
p| | tnks | 22:49 |
p| | mmm | 22:51 |
p| | hidd seems doesn't have any channel specs | 22:51 |
p| | only btaddr or hci device | 22:51 |
alterego | Maybe it's defaulting. | 22:52 |
gnarvaez | alterego, excuse my ignorance, but I do not find any applet called "repeat_interval" | 22:53 |
alterego | gnarvaez, it's a key in gconf | 22:53 |
gnarvaez | [I am sure that I am making a basic mistake] | 22:53 |
alterego | Install the gconf-editor and look under that path. | 22:54 |
alterego | Probably the easiest way. | 22:54 |
*** pleemans has quit IRC | 22:55 | |
gnarvaez | oh that! nope, no effect. Tried it many times, but will try it again | 22:55 |
*** henno has quit IRC | 22:57 | |
*** henno has joined #maemo | 22:58 | |
gnarvaez | alterego, I tried again setting the repeat to 900 (.9 sec?) and the delay to 1200 (1.2 sec) and I don't see a difference. Also I noticed that when I connect to the bt gps, the keyboard is practically unusable. | 22:59 |
alterego | Oh well. | 22:59 |
gnarvaez | anyway, thanks for the information.... I am trying to understand how the bt keyboard gets processed.... I should go back to the docs (a few days ago, in the middle of the night, after trying a number of things, I filed a bug on this, it is #2166) | 23:01 |

gnarvaez | p|, I found the file that has the parameters to modify the repeat and delay, it is /var/lib/gconf/apps/osso/applet/hwkeyboard/%gconf.xml | 23:24 |
gnarvaez | it just does not seem to have any effect | 23:24 |
p| | gnarvaez: simply use gconf (GUI) | 23:25 |
p| | it modify the same file | 23:25 |
p| | (whithout success) | 23:26 |
p| | i think it is a hid driver problem | 23:26 |
alterego | I doubt that. | 23:26 |
gnarvaez | xset770 is mentioned as a possible fix for the repeat/delay problem, but I don't seem to be able to set it properly (or maybe it does not work) See http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HowTo_SetupKeyboard | 23:26 |
gnarvaez | but I don't see it having any effect | 23:27 |
gnarvaez | p| yes, gconf-editor modifies the same file, I wanted to know what file it modified | 23:28 |
*** _Kili__ has joined #maemo | 23:28 | |
p| | i think the same you have said | 23:28 |
gnarvaez | somehow I trust VIM a bit more than some GUI app | 23:28 |
p| | hehe | 23:28 |
*** skibur has joined #maemo | 23:28 | |
gnarvaez | p| it might be an HID problem, but because of the interaction with the GPS (I don't have other bluetooth devices) I am wondering if it might be a problem further down the protocol | 23:30 |
alterego | You're paranoid. | 23:30 |
gnarvaez | [stack] | 23:30 |
gnarvaez | no... alterego, the door in my office is locked | 23:31 |
p| | gnarvaez: does you kn work without gps ? | 23:31 |
p| | your kb* | 23:31 |
p| | the mine work ok without other connected bt devices | 23:33 |
alterego | http://alterego.freeshell.org/rx_task_003.png | 23:33 |
alterego | Starting to come together now :) | 23:33 |
p| | so i think it is not a repeat problem... | 23:33 |
gnarvaez | p| yes, the kbrd works without the gps, but the delay and repeat are on the edge (if I use a Nokia su-8w keyboard, or a stowaway, it is next to unusable, with an apple BT kbrd it is pretty tolerable. If I have the GPS connected at the same time, any kbrd becomes unstable to the point that is unusable, though the GPS works fine) | 23:34 |
p| | my stowaway is ok | 23:34 |
skibur | RX-34_2007SE_4.2007.38-2_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin for n800 What are some features or upgrades on it? | 23:35 |
p| | skibur: fix for sdhc corruption i think is the most important one | 23:35 |
skibur | ? | 23:35 |
skibur | what is for large amount of data sent? | 23:36 |
alterego | It's the only one I heard. | 23:36 |
p| | yes | 23:36 |
alterego | Just SD driver fixes | 23:36 |
skibur | was io ok | 23:36 |
p| | gnarvaez: any way to 'submit' the keyboard bt problem ? | 23:38 |
*** jhassine_ has quit IRC | 23:38 | |
p| | any bug repository ?? | 23:38 |

ol_schoola | hi all, quick question about booting from internal flash... | 23:42 |
ol_schoola | just finished the install/procedure, rebooted with message at top saying "booting from flash" | 23:42 |
ol_schoola | how do i actually verify it is using the card? ls /media/mmc2 shows nothing | 23:43 |
ol_schoola | file mgr indicates card is corrupted | 23:43 |
