derfpupnik: Do you have R&D mode enabled?00:25
pupniknope00:25
derfI believe that Nokia logo is somewhere on the initramfs.00:25
pupnikbooting os2006 off mmc00:25
K`zan_800Makes sense to me.00:25
pupnikwell i see the logo for a split second before the hildon desktop appears00:26
derfI know when I switched R&D mode on, it started showing it. It might also if you're booting off mmc.00:26
derfRight.00:26
derfYour logo, you mean.00:26
pupnikyes00:26
derfYou'll also see it properly when you shut down.00:26
pupniki just see the NOKIA logo on shutdown also00:27
derfWell, maybe that's a 770 thing, then.00:27
derfI know I see mine on the N800.00:28
pupnikok00:28
derfOr maybe related to booting off mmc instead of being in R&D mode.00:28
pupniknot a big deal - device is almost always on here (nice and stable)00:28

*** ol_schoola has quit IRC00:33
p|_is possible to do a:  dd if=/dev/mtdblock4 of=/media/mmc2/mybkp bs=1M00:33
alteregoYes00:33
alteregoIt'll take a while though.00:33
p|_also if i'm booting from internal flash ?00:33
alteregoYou might be better off piping it through an ssh connection or seomthing.00:33
alteregoWell, it's not exactly safe to do it when booting from the device no ..00:34

alteregoMaybe ..00:35
alterego:)00:35
p|_so ? is it an error or not ?00:36
p|_is this type of backup supposed to work only if i boot from mmc ?00:36
alteregoIt doesn't exist ..00:38

alteregotko, that's meaning less00:41
tkolibrary vs. executable ?00:41
alteregotko, I've been staring at those files for over a week. The symbol isn't in any shared library I can find.00:41
alteregoI'm getting linking errors.00:41
p|_after i have installed the OS2008 (and re-flash to OS2007) now i see while boot some extra info over the nokia logo00:42
tkooh well, another reason to kick jobi00:42
p|_it do not show this before00:42
timelyxpl_: is it green?00:42
alteregoI've wasted so much time on this.00:42
alteregoAnd the problem isn't even obvious ..00:42
p|_yes timelyx00:42
_Monkeyhmmm... timelyx is timelyx's mac, it has scrollback00:42
alteregoThere don't appear to be _any_ plugin_loader related symbols being exported.00:42
timelyxyou're in R&D mode, you can disable it w/ some flasher args00:42

* alterego wonders if this is local to the SDK.00:45
* alterego takes a few deep breaths ..00:45
alteregoGetting angry isn't going to help me ..00:45
tkoif the function is part of the executable it is available for any plugin that is dlopened into that process00:48
pupnikhttp://www.nokia.de/A4630299  german Nokia.de link to N810 info page - not in the shop yet00:48
GeneralAntillesYou never know, alterego, you could end up turning into the Incredible Hulk/Programmer. ;)00:49
alteregoHeh00:49
alteregoAnd do what? Fix all the crap that's wrong with hildondesktop?00:49
alteregoThis issue doesn't make any sense at all.00:50
GeneralAntillesYou'll release a perfectly stable, 3x faster and endlessly awesome OS2009 release within mere hours.00:50

pupniki need to get in a spaceship going 0.9c for a few hours until the N810 hits germany00:52
alteregoI can't believe this is happening ...00:52
zerojayyes00:52
l7so did anyone buy the n810 today?00:53
l7i would really like one if i had the extra money, but i guess i will settle for n80000:53
alteregoIt's not out in my country.00:53
elbyeah00:54
elbI plan to order one when it's available, but ... not yet, in the US00:54
alteregoI wonder if it's available in Finland yet ^_^00:55
hircusl7: still stuck in pre-order land :)00:55
GeneralAntillesWell, sure, if you go knock over Nokia HQ.00:55
timelyxthere's a nokia store in downtown helsinki00:55
l7it is out in some US cities i think00:55
timelyxi could check there today (sunday)00:55
hircusl7: yeah, someone got it in Chicago00:55
l7they called me telling me it was ready00:55
hircusalterego: can't you call the local store and reserve a unit?00:56
l7if only i could afford one...00:56
alteregoI don't have a local store.00:56
GeneralAntillesIf only it were worth the money over the N800. :P00:56
hircusl7: you can make money offering to buy it for other people :)00:56
timelyxhttp://www.nokia.fi/A435363000:56
l7hircus: really?00:56
hircusalterego: ah, thought you were asking about Finland00:56
l7hircus: where? on ebay?00:56
alteregoDoesn't look like it's out in Finland yet either ^_^00:57
zerojayCan anyone out there explain to me what the point is of sid-support and ogg-support when they don't appear to do anything?00:57
*** Matt-W has joined #maemo00:57
l7i guess i might as well since i reserved one00:57
hircusl7: lots of people living in Canada, etc. can't buy it directly00:57
timelyxwhat's sid-support?00:57
zerojaySupposedly adds .sid music support to the tablet.00:57
l7hircus: what's the most trusted way to do this?00:57
hircusso yes. announce it in internettablettalk -- but make sure the unit is in stock at your local store00:57
l7i haven't really experimetned w/ ebay00:57
timelyxwhat's sid?00:57
hircusl7: I'd say eBay and only accepting Paypal account-holders00:57
K`zan_800what is sid?00:57
zerojaytimelyx: Are you kidding me?00:57
timelyxno?00:58
zerojaytimelyx: C64 music files.00:58
hircus.sid -- old music format, no? can't remember the details00:58
hircusaha00:58
timelyxi'm a browser dev, not a music philo00:58
tkodebian unstable00:58
Matt-WI've got a really silly problem. I'm trying to get the Chinook SDK working but apt-get from inside scratchbox can't resolve any hostnames (wget can though)00:58
*** etrunko has quit IRC00:58
l7hircus: would people trust someone w/o a seller history though?00:58
timelyxbah, i was a fli/flc/mid fan myself00:58
hircusl7: good point00:58
l7i could use amazon marketplace perhaps00:58
hircusl7: same problem00:58
timelyxi asked and was told there was sid support, but no good mid support00:58
zerojaytimelyx: Those would be nice too.00:58
hircusand on Amazon, the top sellers have, what, thousands of ratings. so it's harder00:58
l7oh i thought amazon gave the buyer more insurance00:58
*** kenne has quit IRC00:58
hircusl7: if you accept Paypal users only, they automatically have, I think, $200 insurance00:59
hircusI'd sell myself if only I have access to a local store where I can just quickly pick them up :)00:59
l7hircus:  hrm, i think they would want more insurance than that00:59

alteregoI'm not going to have wasted all this time for nothing.01:00
l7well it's a cool idea, i was sort of thinking about it, but the whole ebay world has sort of eluded me01:00
l7reggie's video on the n810 is really nice01:01
hircusit is indeed01:01
GeneralAntillesYou could do it on a case-by-case with Paypal through ITT, l7.01:01
elbtko: who is the first image on that page, do you know?01:01
zerojayIt's just too bad that Reggie's voice makes me want to fall asleep.01:01
GeneralAntillesHa01:02
alteregoSo the N810 is officially out?01:02
zerojayOther than that, very good video.01:02
l7GeneralAntilles: what kind of markup would be reasonable to charge for shipping units to people?01:02
timelyxit's been out for a few days, afaict01:02
tkoelb: nope, but it might be said in the comments01:02
hircusoh wait. Reggie's video, not thoughtfix's .. where, on the main page?01:02
l7seems like you would have to buy insured shipping too01:02
alteregoWhat countries?01:02
hircustimelyx: it's Schrodingerly out01:02
timelyxhircus: it's out and then it's out of stock?01:03
zerojayHm.. microb-spellcheck.. interesting.01:03
pupnikrefresh... refresh...01:03
timelyxzerojay: iirc that was missing a ui element :(01:03
zerojayI'll try it anyways.01:03
hircustimelyx: yes. and the non-Nokia shops are not even selling it yet01:03
hircusmakes me wonder why Nokia can't coordinate launches like how Sony, Nintendo, Apple does it01:04
*** Tieku has joined #maemo01:04
timelyxhircus: you must have missed the n800 launch01:04
*** huron has joined #maemo01:04
timelyxthere was the launch date, and then there was the day you could get it in stores01:04
* Tieku just ordered himself an n800 on ebay :-D01:04
hircustimelyx: I was there01:05
alteregoThere's a difference between "can't" and "can't be bothered" or "won't"01:05
timelyxor should i say, there was the day you could get it in stores, and then there was the launch01:05
hircusalterego: ah yes. "can't be bothered"01:05
alteregoNokia are perfectly _capable_ of a coordinated launch. They obviously choose not to.01:05
* timelyx questions that01:05
hircusso it's between accusing incompetence and accusing callousness :)01:05
GeneralAntillesOr the day before the launch date you could buy it in stores if you went to the right CompUSA. :D01:05
timelyxGeneralAntilles: my point exactly01:05
huronhey guys, any idea whether mplayer is available for OS2008?01:05
hircusexactly! they did not put a gag-order on the shops01:05
timelyxhircus: that worked well enough for HP01:06
hircussame case with LetsTalk and the Chicago store this time around, no?01:06
* timelyx shrugs01:06
hircusHP .. ugh01:06
tkohmm, like apple launching iphone several months before you could get it in stores? was there a point somewhere?01:06
timelyxif a book seller can't get a coordinated launch right01:06
timelyxwhat makes you think a phone vendor can?01:06
hircusHP's launch of their anniversary-edition calculator works well, actually01:06
pupnikmaybe nokia just ships to USA faster so they can make some money before the dollar becomes worthless01:06
l7Tieku: how much did the n800 cost on ebay?01:06
timelyxhircus: wrong HP01:06
elbpupnik: hah01:06
l7haha01:06
hircusbut otherwise.. HP is quoting different prices for the same components depending on whether you go HP/Intel, HP/AMD, Compaq/Intel or Compaq/AMD :P01:06
elbit HAS to bounce sooner or later :-P01:06
* timelyx meant the wizard...01:07
hircustko: well, pre-announcing is fine01:07
pupnikelb with M3 growing at 14% APR?  not any time soon01:07
GeneralAntillesThe gag order on the last HP was a joke.01:07
hircusbut the shipping should be coordinated01:07
GeneralAntillesThere aren't going to be any more HPs, so . . . who cares?01:07
Matt-WSo it seems other people have had the problem with apt-get not resolving hostnames inside Scratchbox, but the suggested fixes are all already in place on my system and it still doesn't work. Irksome.01:08
hircusoh, Harry Potter :P01:08
elbpupnik: M3?01:08
* GeneralAntilles had to cart boxes and boxes of HP across a sweltering parking lot. :(01:08
elb(M3 is not a term with which I am familiar)01:08
GeneralAntillesEconomics, elb.01:08
hircusGeneralAntilles: my sympathies :)01:08
pupnikelb a measure of the money supply - they create more credit and dollars, this leads to inflation01:08
elbGeneralAntilles: that's not really a useful answer01:08
GeneralAntillesIt gives you enough to hit wiki. ;)01:09
hircuscould someone do a quick rehash of the difference between M2, M3, M4? :)01:09
GeneralAntilleshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_supply01:09
elbwikipedia is generally full of lies and worthlessness, if that's what you mean by 'wiki'01:09
pupniki just watch shadowgovtstats.com to see trends in dollar01:09
Tiekul7: i got it for £12301:09
hircuselb: ah, you mean 'statistics' :)01:09
timelyxyou're missing damn lies01:10
elbpupnik: I keep hearing all about all the inflation, but ... if anything, I have seen deflation in the past 12 months, empirically01:10
alteregoDoesn't look like it's available in _any_ online shop.01:10
timelyxa very important part of statistics01:10
elbpupnik: it's not clear to me that we have any idea what the problem is :-)01:10
hircusalterego: which country?01:10
Matt-WWoo, working now.01:10
alterego_any_ country.01:10
pupnikI pick my gurus and follow them blindly01:10
timelyxhey, does the nokia.com/nokiausa.com store have correct product info for the n810 yet?01:11
guru3all hail me? ;)01:11
timelyxlast i checked, the n810 was weightless01:11
hircusconfusing, right? unless you know from somewhere else, you'd not know that you can preorder it01:11
hircusweightless -- awesome01:11
timelyxhircus: among some other very amusing detials01:11
alteregoPre order it from where?01:11
timelyxs/ia/ai/01:11
infobottimelyx meant: hircus: among some other very amusing details01:11
alteregoYou can't preorder it from the online shops.01:11
hircusalterego: amazon.com, mobilecityonline.com, letstalk.com <= Nokia's own store01:12
alteregoThere are no shops in the UK ..01:12
*** huron has left #maemo01:12
hircusalterego: yes you can. oh, not in the UK, probably01:12
alteregoNo, you can't.01:12
hircusalterego: ah, for letstalk you might have to call01:12
alteregoNot if you have the discount code like me.01:12
elbyeah, those of us with discount codes apparently have to wait for some magic word :-)01:12
zerojayyep :(01:12
alteregoI doubt any store selling the N810 would accept my discount code.01:12
hircusI think letstalk does the $75 discount code01:12
alteregoYou think ..01:13
hircusis it that, or the full developer discount?01:13
alteregoI have the device program discount code.01:13
alterego_a_ device program discount code ..01:13
hircushttp://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1164201:14
hircusyes, the device program one probably won't work01:14
alteregoI suppose this is why Python don't have a working desktop plugin system01:14
alteregoDespite maemo having written the python loader and it being in SVN.01:14
K`zan_800Don't think that map download is working - everything flashing, but progress bar going nowhere...01:15
K`zan_800686MB01:16
alteregoIt's probably going slowely.01:16
K`zan_800Def doing that. Wonder where it plans to put it?!?01:16
alteregoSD card01:16
K`zan_800Does it select the SD card with most space.01:16
zerojaybingo01:16
K`zan_800Ah, good01:16
K`zan_800Clever little thing :)!01:17
pupniksomeone mentioned needing 2x the map size in free space for map download01:17
l7are discount codes only available to developers?01:17
K`zan_800Got a 4G and 1G card in there.01:17
zerojayl7: No, they were given to 500 people who applied.01:17
K`zan_800If I hadn't already had a decent GPS, I might have considered the 810.01:18
l7zerojay: where di they apply?01:18
hircusl7: program closed by now, I think01:18
hircusbut it was announced at maemo.org01:18
K`zan_800If one could get into it :-(.01:18
pupnikhttp://maemo.org/news/announcements/view/500_fortunate_applicants.html01:19
K`zan_800Which reminds me, I should try getting into it again today and see if it works.01:19
alteregoDoes your GPS access the internet and is it able to run 3rd party applications?01:19
K`zan_800Works today!01:19
GeneralAntillesOr navigate with google satellite maps?01:19
l7so are all the people who applied developers?01:19
zerojayl7: You're way too late.01:19

K`zan_800What is this assigning some of the SD card to "virtual memory" thing?01:20

K`zan_800err FLASH01:20
GeneralAntillesIt's a swap space, you want it K`zan_800.01:20
l7how much was the discount?01:20
K`zan_800How much is good?01:20
GeneralAntilles12801:20
derfIt means that instead of spontaneously rebooting, your device just gets really, really slow.01:20
K`zan_800OK, that's easy, thanks :)!01:21
alteregol7, you should read more carefully. there was a _BIG_ point made about it.01:21
alteregol7, N810 for 99 EUR to the fortunate 500001:21

infobothmm... 500 is at #tuxboxproject01:21
K`zan_800Surprising maemo isn't on the default bookmarks..01:21
timelyxwhy?01:22
alteregoHe's easily suprised? :)01:22
K`zan_800An important resource for N stuff?01:22
K`zan_800LOL, true :-)01:22
timelyxno01:22
K`zan_800No?01:22
GeneralAntillesInstead it's filled with stupid trendy "green" crap.01:22
hircusN800 developer discount was only for developers. N810 program was for developers and anyone who helps the platform (i.e. evangelists, doc writers etc)01:22
timelyxGeneralAntilles: nokia changed its values about a year ago01:23
l7alterego: i assumed i was unworthy, not being a dev :)01:23
timelyxgreen stuff was a "new" value01:23
timelyxso our customers get to suffer from it :)01:23
GeneralAntillesI'm a particularly fan of the charger disconnect warning. :\01:23
GeneralAntilles*-ly01:23
hircusheck, even Dell will offer to plant a tree for you when you purchase something :)01:23
alteregoAssumptions will make you look foolish in the end. You missed out on a great opportunity.01:23
alteregoGeneralAntilles, I've not seen that warning.01:24
GeneralAntilleshttps://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=228501:24
K`zan_800Yeah, like it is going to use up all the electricity on the planet...01:24
timelyxalterego: leave your device charging for 2 days01:24
GeneralAntillesThere's a picture at the bottom.01:24
timelyxyou'll get the message01:24
alteregoGeneralAntilles, it's odd. Considering how the chargers drop to almost no power consumption when charging has finished.01:24
timelyxalterego: my impression is that a government complained01:24
alteregoO_o01:24
GeneralAntillesUgh01:24
timelyxslightly unrelated, i think some gov was complaining about devices using standbye mode01:25
timelyxs/ye/e/01:25
infobottimelyx meant: slightly unrelated, i think some gov was complaining about devices using standbe mode01:25
timelyxblah01:25
timelyxwhatever01:25
hircusyes, Britain01:25
alteregoI'd be more worried about my VCR. Nokia chargers are the best I've ever used for power consumption.01:25
alteregoThey really are top-notch.01:25
hircusthe Conservatives brought it up to out-green the govt, and naturally the govt felt they had to respond01:25
elbheh I unplug my coffee grinder because it gets physically warm to the touch, doing nothing :-P01:25
hircusI think it's more a worry with HDTV owners :)01:25
elbit's amazing how much power a lot of appliances use doing nothing01:25
K`zan_800LOL one might think...01:26
elbI assume the concern is that the inverter is drawing power doing nothing?01:26
alteregoYeah it is, it's also amazing how little power the Nokia phone chargers take when doing nothing :P01:26
GeneralAntillesI'm going to do a study showing that the CPU cycles wasted in showing that banner actually exceed the charger in the amount of power used. :P01:26

GeneralAntillesWhich, really, is just USB trying to pretend to be Firewire.08:06

K`zanAh thanks, checking.08:07

hircusif only they did that from the beginning08:10
GeneralAntillesHehe08:10
K`zanI wonder if I hack a mini-USB on a USB keyboard if it would work?!?08:10
GeneralAntillesIt still needs power.08:11

K`zanThat is easy enough with the piles of batteries and wall warts around here :)08:11
K`zanI that will work I am off to make it up!08:12
hircusthere are those 6-pin-to-4-pin Firewire cables that come with a power adapter, right?08:12

hircusGeneralAntilles: that's really decent08:16
GeneralAntillesThe key is to use your fingertips (exactly the opposite of what you do on the iPhone).08:17
hircusGeneralAntilles: where you use your.. er.. finger pads?08:19
GeneralAntillesBasically.08:19
* hircus wondering about finger smudging .. ugh08:20
GeneralAntillesThe iPhone doesn't like small stylus-like inputs08:20
GeneralAntillesIt's actually not bad08:20
GeneralAntillesunless you wander around wish a melted Hersheys bar in your hands all day, the iPhone stays fairly clean.08:20
hircuswell, if you have greasy fingers then you'll spend a lot of time wiping the screen08:20
GeneralAntilles(of note, I don't actually own an iPhone, but I did have to get my mother's setup ;))08:20
hircusI've briefly tried a friend's, plus trying it in the shop (hint: AT&T, if you chain your iPhone with a short cable, it makes trying it out really awkward)08:21

keesjit also opens the door to using recent compilers etc. I guess what really would be great is to have the hidlon stuff into mamona/oe12:40
unique311can you install stuff compile for os200712:42

akv_Andy80: those apps will be ported..i'm not worried :)18:08
kulveyou can't release an app, if it compiles in SDK. You have to test it18:08
kulveand you can't test it, if you don't have the device18:08
Andy80kulve: ehm... same problem here :)18:08
pupniklets hope the N9x0 will have 2x or 4x the space on root filesystem18:08
Andy80I just ported SPIM to Chinook, but I cannot test it yet18:08
kulveyeah, that's the reason there is no apps for n810 yet :)18:08
akv_itos2008 looks very promising18:09

pupnikagree konttori - at least the developer can assume the 2GB will not be removed on N810 - i believe it is mmc2?18:12
Andy80timelyx: ahhh ok ok... something like "debug" version :)18:12

_Monkeyrumour has it mmc1 is accessible18:13
timelyxusb works the same way on the n810 as it does on the n8118:13
konttoriand you cal always require the internal (mmc2) to be present. (or fall back to mmc1 if it isn't)18:13
timelyxyou attach it, and the mmcs go away18:13
timelyxif you have open files when this happens18:13
timelyxbad things will probably happen18:13
konttoriinternal is mmc2, external mmc118:13
*** L0cutusM has joined #Maemo18:13
konttoriwell, it won't mount mmc to usb if it's in use18:14
timelyxbrowser team is currently trying to determine just how bad18:14
Andy80anyway, 2 gb on mmc2 is a lot of space :)18:14
timelyxkonttori: define in use?18:14
konttoriso, bad things won't happen, it just won't mount to your desktop18:14
konttorias in it has read / write locks to any files on the mmc18:14
konttorias in any application has such locks18:14
timelyxif it's between locks...18:14
suihkulokkidue to the circumstances mentioned by timelyx (+ some others, mainly that you have to use FAT), I have become to the conclusion that mass storage mode for USB must die18:15
Andy80uhm.... no... wait..... if mmc2 is not accessible... how can I transfer files to it from my desktop?18:15
timelyxor has already asserted the file system exists but hasn't locked yet18:15

konttoriif you had restored setting from n800, perhaps you had set your own lock code on n80018:18
suihkulokkikonttori: even emulated fat is risky.. the mounting OS does not expect FAT sectors to get modified18:18
trevarthanI didn't restore anything18:18

konttoriHow about just putting alpha channel to the pixbuf?22:47
* alterego wonders if they're cheating ..22:47
alteregoNo, I think Nokia cheat.22:47
konttoriI actually don't know the proper way to do it, but that's the way I would have designed the plugin framework.22:48
alteregoThey find out the position of the plugin and capture what should be there. Then make it look like it's transparent.22:48
konttorithose damn cheaters!22:48
xan-afkalterego, no, the desktop has a local compositor, it's true transparency22:48
konttoriactually, as you can put widgets on top of each other, I think they are not cheating as you described22:49
alteregoxan-afk, do you know how to utilize it?22:49
xan-afkyou can control it via theming or having ARGB visuas in your windows22:49
xan-afkvisuals22:49
alteregoxan-afk, thanks a lot :)22:49
alteregoI'm gonna have some good ruby-maemo related blogging material for tomorrow :)22:49
xan-afkI think jobi was doing a tutorial about that, not sure if he released it22:49
alteregojobi, pfft. Useless bugger :P22:50
alteregoKudos for the 2008 theme though ..22:50
alteregoTime for some bath surfing.22:50

* alterego wonders what a /good/ sources.list file is.23:56
alteregoJust put the repos you need in it.23:57
Igg-manjust the repos for the device23:57
Igg-manI think I'm missing something, lots of packages don't install23:57
alteregoThe devic edoesn't have a sources.list file.23:58
Igg-manoh23:58
Igg-manhmm23:58
Igg-manwhat's the /etc/apt/sources.list file do?23:58
kaltsialterego what do you mean?23:59
alteregoNothing, you should set repositoriesi n hte applicaiton mangaer.23:59
Igg-manokay23:59
Igg-manIs it safe to switch everything to chinook?23:59
alteregoO_O23:59
kaltsialterego: the app manager modifies the sources.list.. it's just a frontend to apt-get23:59
