lardmanderf: Is this an issue?: http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20071210-nokia-wants-w3c-to-remove-out-ogg-from-upcoming-html5-standard.html00:00
derfIt's certainly an "issue".00:01
derfIt made /. and has been posted in here 5 or 6 times already.00:02
elbderf, master of understatement00:04
elbwithin an order of magnitude of 5 or 6, anyway ;-)00:04
*** javamaniac has quit IRC00:04
alteregoHeh00:05
czrinz, yes00:05
*** playya has quit IRC00:06
czrinz, but I can't tell you any more details00:06
derfI'm glad to see the rest of the world finally found out about it, but the amount of stupid in that comment thread makes baby kittens cry.00:06
*** playya_ has joined #maemo00:06
czrinz, you'd have to sign the NDA to hear more. with your blood. all of it.00:06
czr(yes, it's a large NDA)00:06
derfI didn't read the /. thread, because I don't read /.00:06
derf(/. free for 6 years, 30 days).00:06
alteregoczr, image 1st, SDK later ;)00:06
alteregoMaybe next year ;)00:06
* czr whispers to alterego smt about "see if I care" smt.00:07
alterego:D00:07
alteregoI'm tired, but I've got my nicotine fix.00:07
czrah, you came back?00:07
alteregoYup00:07
alteregoI'm quick I know :)00:08
alteregoIt's too cold to walk slow.00:08
inzczr, do I need to sign all of the NDA or with all my blood?00:08
alteregoThough, there was a queue ..00:08
inzczr, event large NDAs usually take only one signature00:08
czrinz, with all of your blood.00:09
elband 200,000 initials00:09
czrI think the initials thingy is something more american00:09
czrthat never quite caught on here.00:09
czrat least not in finland00:09
czrI have trouble explaining what "marking initials" means when people sign RH NDAs00:10
elbreally?00:10
* czr nods00:10
alteregoRed Hat?00:10
elbthat's good to hear00:10
* czr nods00:10
elbbecause it SUCKS00:10
elbI can't remember what the last long document I had to sign was, but I had to initial every freaking page00:10
alteregoRed Hat have NDA's? That's interesting.00:10
*** roue has quit IRC00:10
elbit SUCKED00:10
czralterego, of course.00:10
*** zchydem_home has left #maemo00:10
czrelb, you felt dirty all over after signing it?00:11
lardmanderf: Ah, my PC crashed this arvo, lost all my backlog for the day00:11
elbpossibly immigration paperwork00:11
czrI know that feeling. I'm covered with the legaleze foo of many a company00:11
alteregoWell, I don't really like Red Hat, though they've done a lot of good work for the OSS movement.00:11
elbczr: well, I don't generally sign NDAs, per se00:11
*** shackan has joined #maemo00:11
czrno amount of showering will make me clean anymore.00:11
elbbut financial and etc. documents00:11
*** truent has quit IRC00:11
alteregoI'm not even allowed to talk about my NDA's ..00:11
alteregoShit ..00:12
czralterego, they also pay people to work on the problems that no one wants to work on00:12
alteregoczr, really? What kind of problems? :D00:12
czralterego, which is why things eventually get fixed00:12
* alterego likes problems.00:12
*** javamaniac has joined #maemo00:12
czrdocumentation, kernel bugs, gtk, all that00:12
alteregoCool.00:12
czrI meant of course that they employ people :-)00:12
czrnot that they per for each bug fixed.00:12
czr+pay00:12
alteregoHah00:12
alteregoThey should. I think a lot more bugs would get fixed ^_^00:13
czrI doubt it00:13
*** jnettlet has quit IRC00:13
czrunless we're talking about large amounts of money ala google.00:13
*** unique311 has joined #maemo00:14
alteregoI'd fix bugs for a nominal fee.00:15
alteregoThough, I guess it depends on the size of the bug ..00:15
alteregoIf you're talking about rewriting the whole driver system in the kernel .. Well .. Fuck that.00:15
lardmanyou might do it if you found it interesting though00:16
alteregoYes, there is that.00:16
alteregoAnd no doubt I would find it interesting :)00:16
lardmanand had a lot of time on your hands.... :)00:16
derfGood luck getting the kernel to take it.00:16
*** matt_c has quit IRC00:17
derfRed Hat already paid Monty to rewrite the USB scheduler for them, but they didn't want it.00:17
*** ch4os_ has quit IRC00:17
czralterego, but how would you know whether a given bug is easy or hard to fix and what price to set to it? :-)00:17
alteregoI'd audit it.00:17
*** Relate has quit IRC00:17
alteregofirst ..00:17
czryou must be a good auditor ;-)00:17
lardmanderf: yes, there is tha00:17
czra lot of the more evil bugs look pretty trivial at start00:18
alteregoI'm good at guessing if that's what you mean ;)00:18
czralterego, yes. the art of guesstimation00:18
czrI really hate that when I need to estimate the required hours/effort to achieve something which I have never done before00:18
alteregoI usually guess, then say, yeah x plus a month or add a month.00:18
czrand obviously working on stuff that I've already done before is too boring so..00:18
alteregoYeah, I get that alot.00:18
*** Donut_ has quit IRC00:19
lardmanaltergo: about an hour + a month or so :)00:19
derfMy strategy was always to just make up something arbitrary, and multiply it by 8.00:19
alteregoHah00:19
*** jhassine has quit IRC00:19
lardmanalterego: sorry for the typo00:19
alteregoHah00:20
*** rip_ has quit IRC00:20
czrderf, I've used 900:21
czr* 3 because I know it will take 3 times the time it should, and even then, projects tend to last 3 times longer. so 3 * 3 = 9. :-)00:22
Atariiah the good old rule of 300:22
* czr nods00:23
czrbest projects have no deadlines00:23
* czr really likes to work on those00:23
inzczr, the bounties could be given to lowest bidder ;)00:23
czrinz, don't divulge trade secrets!00:24
inzSorry, did I ruineds your evvil plan?00:24
czrinz, heh. no. maybe N's evil plan :-)00:25
*** penguinbait has joined #maemo00:25
czrmy plan is so evil, even I cannot ruin it.00:25
penguinbaituh oh, evil plans?00:25
inzczr, ooh, I need an idiot-proof evvil plan too!00:27
* alterego chuckles00:27
*** nwidger has quit IRC00:27
czrinz, indeed00:28
czrif the plan is evil beyond comprehension, it cannot be ruined, since no one can understand it00:28
penguinbaitcan I be the judge?00:29
*** ol_schoola has joined #maemo00:29
inzpenguinbait, that would be too easy00:29
*** aloisiojr has quit IRC00:29
penguinbaitok, I just used paypal to order an ACME evil plan kit00:30
penguinbaitI'm onboard!00:30
czrheh00:30
penguinbaitheh00:30
czrthe ACME one SUCKS!00:30
czrthey ship Windows ME.00:30
czrnot nearly evil enough plan.00:30
penguinbaitno wonder the cyote never had a chance00:31
*** Luria has joined #maemo00:31
SpasticHello00:31
SpasticDoes anyone here have Minimo running?00:31
GeneralAntillesWhat would be the point?00:31
alteregoSpastic, something wrong with microb?00:31
SpasticSorry, what is microb?\00:32
acydlordit's the mozilla engine browser for maemo00:32
penguinbaitSpastic what OS are you running?00:32
Spastic200600:33
SpasticOn the 77000:33
alteregoIs there a microb release for 2006?00:33
alteregoThere should be ..00:33
penguinbaitmicrob is available on that isn't it, or is it only HE00:33
pupnikanybody gotten a usb wifi device working on 770/n8x0?00:33
SpasticThey dont have usb ports, do they?00:34
pupnikthey have usb ports00:34
penguinbaitNope, but I want to get my usb wifi logeitch joysticks working00:34
alteregopupnik, I've not tried mine. Mainly because the module isn't in the kernel tree.00:34
pupnikhoping some kernel hacker tries it sometime - maybe fanoush00:35
*** andrunko has quit IRC00:35
alteregoI will try it.00:35
alteregoJust not now, well, maybe in a few minutes when I've finished my release.00:35
czrpenguinbait, heh for the coyote00:35
penguinbaitspeaking of usb devices, I made a cdrom.deb for the kernel modules for 2008OS, it automounts disks, how do I get it to automount the cdrom/dev devices also00:35
*** Dregz has joined #maemo00:35

penguinbait2008OS00:36
penguinbaitN00:36
alteregoDamn00:36
penguinbaitNokia usb cable with a Female A to Female A adapter00:37
alteregoIt worked when I plugged it into my Camera, but not when I plugged it into my card readers.00:37
*** hexa has quit IRC00:37
alteregopenguinbait, yeah. I've got the same setup ..00:37
penguinbaitthumb drive was powerer by n80000:37
penguinbaitusb hard disk needed extra power00:38
alteregoWell, the lights came on. But the N800 complained about not being able to handle the device. "unrecognised" or something.00:38
penguinbaitCDROM/DVD was 110V00:38
alterego110V?!00:38
*** t_s_o has joined #maemo00:38
alteregoMine's only 5v ..00:38
penguinbaitIt will say unrecognized, but it mounts it00:38
alteregoInteresting ..00:38
alteregoI'll have another go in a minute.00:38
penguinbaitit was powered by the wall, not the n80000:39
alteregoObviously.00:39
alterego110V for a CDROM .. I think you're wrong :P00:39
penguinbaithttp://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1249100:39
penguinbaittheres the cdrom deb00:39
acydlordhe was referring to wall current instead of host powered00:39
lardmanthings are getting better, I mistranslated a !boundary into cmp64_int(boundary,0)!=000:40
penguinbaitit will autoload the modules on install, and on future boots00:40
alteregovoltage .. Not current.00:40
alteregoDidn't want to put it into hal?00:40
alteregohal ?00:40
alteregoHmm ..00:41
penguinbait?00:41
alteregoMaybe I'm thinking of udev.00:41
alteregomodprobe probably.00:41
alteregoDamnit ..00:41
penguinbaitwhat controls the automount of devices00:41
penguinbaitthere is no automounter that I can find00:42
alteregoWell, udev _can_ do it.00:42
*** TimRiker has joined #maemo00:42
alteregoI'd have to check.00:42
penguinbaitnothing in fstab00:42
TimRikerx11vnc does not see the video frames. is there a vnc server that does? ie: is fbvncserver or similar available for the n800/os2007?00:43
TimRikerany other options to remotely see a video call? (yes, I know that performance will suck, this is for a demo nothing more)00:43
alteregoOr hotplug ..00:43
TimRikercan I start the complete front end on a remote X server? what about the video call application? will it then push video over X instead of direct to the local fram buffer as it appears to be doing?00:44
alteregoTimRiker, not likely.00:47
*** djcb has joined #maemo00:47
alteregoThey probably should have added the alarm clock feature to the internet readio ..00:47
alterego~radio ..00:47
penguinbaitdoes n810 have fm radio, or only transmitter?00:48
alteregoNeither00:48
penguinbaitit has FM transmitter00:48
penguinbaitright?00:48
TimRikeris there a full emulated tablet interface in the sdk that can place video calls?00:48
alteregoNo it doesn't.00:48
alteregoThe FM transmitter is an accessory ..00:48
TimRikerthe nokia internet call invitation beta is over, so can't go that route.00:48
*** mk8 has quit IRC00:48
alteregoTimRiker, no.00:49
penguinbaitI thought it was built in, bummer00:49
alteregoWell, there's a slim possibility you can use the rootfs from a real device in the SDK ..00:49
*** p| has quit IRC00:51
alteregoCool, you can make a double click on the power button do something.00:52
alteregoInteresting.00:53
*** barisione has quit IRC00:54
TimRikeralterego: I thought the sdk ran x86 versions? the real device would be arm packages.00:54
alteregoTimRiker, how do you think the SDK is able to compile for arm then?00:55
TimRikercompile for, yes. run, no.00:55
TimRikerat least that's what I understood.00:55
alteregoDo you think I would have recommended it if it wasn't possible?00:55
alteregoObviously your understanding comes from zero use ..00:56
TimRikerwell I thought that's what you meant by "slim possibility"00:56
*** aloisiojr has joined #maemo00:56
alteregoNo, "slim possibility" meant. You can try it, but qemu isn't perfect ..00:56
TimRikerI've cross compiled apps for the n800, but they are all at the system level and using my own cross compile tools. never messed with the actual sdk.00:56
alteregoYour loss then :P00:57
*** JussiP has quit IRC00:57
TimRikerI would not expect normal qemu to expose v4l or other video devices through the emulator, but I've never checked either. :)00:57
alteregoGood point ..00:58
alteregoI guess you can't do it then.00:58
TimRikerheh00:58
lopzre00:58
alteregoWhat's NJoy me wonders ..00:58
alterego"NJoy Controller" ..00:59
*** Blain has quit IRC00:59
alteregoczr, you dead yet?00:59
pupnikTimRiker: just run your x server without xv extension, and vnc should see the drawn video00:59
pupnikafaik or configure the app to use plain old x11 rendering00:59
czralterego, nope00:59
alteregoczr, have you heard of this "NJoy Controller"?01:00
czrunfortunately to you all, I'm very much alive :-)01:00
alteregoIt looks like some kind of game controller with flashing lights.01:00
czralterego, sounds like some stupid marketing typo :-). what is it supposed to do/be?01:00
alteregoNo reference to it on the internet though ..01:00
czrthen it doesn't exist01:00
czrinternet knows all.01:00
alteregoInteresting ..01:00
*** amr_ has joined #maemo01:00
*** amr_ is now known as amr01:00
alteregoI wonder if this is something Nokia are working on. A gamepad for the NSeries ..01:00
czrmayeb related to the ngage-emulator/thingy whatever on the new Nseries01:01
alteregoOh, actually.01:01
alteregoThis is for a future device.01:01
alteregoMy mistake.01:01
alteregoLooks like they're going to have red green and blue LEDs in the next tablet.01:02
alteregoOr a future tablet ..01:02
* czr opens the window into the future for alterego01:02
*** celesteh has quit IRC01:02
czrhmm. n810 has dual color at least01:02
czrnever seen it red. but green, blue and white so far.01:02
alteregoAh, that's probably it then :)01:03
*** celesteh has joined #maemo01:03
alteregoYou can configure how the lights play when things happen.01:03
alteregoWow, you can even change the intensity.01:04
fysafor the 810?01:04
alteregoYup01:04
fysais there intensity on the 800 LED?01:04
alteregoYup01:04
*** geaaru has quit IRC01:05
fysawould be nice to have the number of unread mails/IMs/missed calls raise the intensity of the LED01:05
alteregoThat's unfortunately not possible.01:05
alteregoYou can customise it for different things though.01:05
*** celesteh has quit IRC01:06
fysaModest couldn't implement something like that?01:06
alteregoSay IM is low, email is mid, and incomming call is high01:06
fysaah01:06
alteregoWell, I don't know if it's possible to drive the LED's directly. It should be but I don't know how yet :)01:06
* alterego suddenly has an evil .. EVIL plan.01:06
fysaI do wish the 800 had a camera mounted like the 810 does though.  That would make for some cool interactivity with the 'motion' application.01:07
alteregoOh, here's a hint.01:07
alteregoI just found out. That if the device is locked, opening the camera disables the screen/key lock and starts the call app regardless ..01:07
alterego(dumb configuration choice IMO)01:07
fysaMy HTPC uses a webcam to detect if I'm sitting on the couch..  and if it senses me on the couch and not on my computer when an email or private IM hits me during business hours, it speaks the contents of the IM or email on the surround sound system.01:07
alteregoHeh01:08
shackanargh, terrible :D01:08
fysawork from home, sometimes you need creative ways to get yourself to 'work'01:08
fysa;)01:08
fysaof course, just imagine the hours I wasted scripting all of that when I should have been working.01:09
alteregoRight, well. It looks like automounting is handled by gnome-vfs.01:09
alteregoI can't find anything else that is likely to take responsibility.01:09
*** gpd has joined #maemo01:09
fysathe same gnome-vfs that is completely sucking our memory away?01:09
*** djcb has quit IRC01:09
alteregoPfft.01:09
*** captainigloo has quit IRC01:09
alteregoThe only problem I have, is the slow starting times of microb ..01:10
fysamaybe it was a bug or something was crashed, but I thought I saw it using 20MB+01:10
alteregoAnd the constant hanging :)01:10
gpdweb browser keeps crashing on OS2008 on N800 - is this well known?01:10
alteregofysa, I think that's the meta crawler.01:10
fysamicrob is so much improved with the render delay fixed.01:10
alteregoIt doesn't crash for me. It just hangs every now-and-again.01:10
K`zanWhat is the equivalent of a ctl-alt-del on the n800 - not that I need it, but would be nice to know anyway?!?01:10
gpdno - mine 'goes away' every time i open a url01:11
fysaalterego, can you test this config option and see how it affects you?01:11
fysahttp://kb.mozillazine.org/Nglayout.initialpaint.delay01:11
*** skibur_ has joined #maemo01:11
fysatry setting this to 400 - 120001:12
lardmanhttp://maemo.pastebin.com/m34c22922 - callback function to read data, the function reads the data and prints out a message to tell me, but it doesn't return that value to the _get_data() fn. Any ideas?01:12
fysathe default about:config sets it to -3 for some reason01:12
alteregofysa, what does it do?01:12
fysawhich I'm thinking forces it to 0, which is real-time updates01:12
alteregoAh01:12
fysait's the delay between receiving data before the browser attempts to render the screen01:12
fysaif it's 0, you render in real-time as everything comes down the pipe01:12
fysawhich basically causes delay in processing the data because now you're spending this energy drawing something that isn't really viewable yet anyway.01:13
skibur_I just bought a IGO Slim keyboard01:13
fysathe default is 250ms now01:13
skibur_how do I pair it?01:13
*** sp3000 has quit IRC01:13
fysabut for some reason it's -3 in OS200801:13
fysa(default in standard firefox)01:13
fysaI raised mine to 600ms and I'm 99% positive that pages load considerably faster01:13
fysathey don't pop right away, but they don't sit there and load one word at a time anymore.01:14
fysai.e., the time from loading start to the page being usable seems much improved01:14
fysaif you read the related bugs attached to that article you'll see various experiences related to different values01:14
alteregofysa, Do I just enter '600' into the value field?01:15
alteregoIs it ms?01:15
fysayeah01:15
fysams01:15
*** gpd has left #maemo01:15
fysajust 60001:15
fysaor higher if you like.   3000 was way too high.01:15
fysaI've only tried 3000 and 600 so far.01:15
*** Luria has quit IRC01:15
alteregoThat's like 3 seconds :P01:15
fysapages with flash aren't as painful anymore01:15
alteregoI'd keep it below 1000 to be honest ;)01:15
fysayeah, wanted to test the extreme to see how long it would take to load a complete page given no rendering01:15
fysaand make sure the option actually worked01:16
*** Luria has joined #maemo01:16
fysaI believe that real-time/0ms delay would cause HTML rendering to be completely bogged down by flash downloading/display also01:16
fysawith a high enough delay, you should be able to pull most of the HTML down before you're hit with the CPU burden of flash01:16
alteregoCoo.01:17
alteregoI'll play around with it a bit.01:17
* alterego would like to know why he keeps getting spam from Apple ..01:17
fysathere could be another delay relating to DNS lookup or some such also.  it seems that every now and then it takes nearly 2 seconds before microb will even 'hit' a remote server01:17
alteregoYeah, that's annoying too ..01:18
fysaI've setup a squid server with adzapper (filters out flash ads), but microb doesn't like to keep proxy settings so I've not tested it for long periods of time01:18
skibur_anybody have their IGO stowaway keyboard paired with N800 - OS2008?01:19
fysaI can imagine that this could help considerably -- reduce the delay from your network out for popular pages (mostly google apps) and the latency of WAN ACKs won't hurt as bad01:19
fysabut that's still a hack that is only helpful for using the web around the house.01:20
fysayou can try enabling pipelining or increasing the maximum number of concurrent connections under network.*01:22
fysapipelining I believe lets you receive multiple pieces of data from a server on a single connection, reducing TCP overhead01:22
czrconnection keep-alive?01:24
fysahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_pipelining01:24
alteregoI'd like global compression ..01:24
alteregoI was thinking of doing that through an SSH tunnel.01:25
*** Luria has quit IRC01:25
fysa you might be able to do that with a squid proxy.01:25

db48xthat adds latency01:26
czrfysa, ah. thanks for the link. not the same as keep-alives.01:26
fysait caches01:26
fysaso it may ad latency the first time around01:26
fysa.. add01:26
fysahttp://adzapper.sourceforge.net/01:27
fysabut it could be a big help on pages with lots of JS/ajax/staticy content01:27

alteregoPiss easy to enable. `echo "host" > /sys/devices/platform/musb_hdrc/mode`01:52
K`zanBut how does one set it back short of a "shutdown -r now" ?01:53
alteregoThe OS even handles it pretty well.01:53
alteregoO_o01:53
alteregoWhat?01:53
alteregoAfter a timeout of inactivity. And no USB connection. It'll go back into it's idle state.01:53
lardmanaltergo: echo "client" or similar?01:54
lardmanaargh, I can't type!01:54
K`zanalterego: Didn't here :-(01:54
alteregoSure, you can force it with: "peripheral" instead of "host01:54
alteregoOr force it into idle with "b_idle"01:54
K`zanCool, thanks!01:55
alterego3 bloody days.01:55
K`zanNow if it just supported my eithernet dongle or the serial converter :).01:55
alteregoThough only 20 minutes of time spent getting that to work ^_^01:55
lardmanisn't that always the way?!01:55
alteregoK`zan, if linux supports it and you've got the SDK installed. Compiling the module is easy.01:55
lardmanspend bloody ages doing something then realise it could have been done far more easily (if you'd had that knowledge already)01:56
alteregoOh, I've not learned anything.01:56
alteregoWell, except the 'b_idle' thing01:56
alteregoNo, I've just had some dumb moments of not reading dmesg properly.01:56
K`zanalterego: Got the url for that, just need to get to it :).01:57
alteregoI was blind to the one error message that was stopping my card readers from working ..01:57

alteregoI wouldn't see a point running it local.02:01
alteregoUnless you don't have X running ..02:01
K`zanalterego: That is why I built the power injector- primarily for a USB keyboard.02:01
alteregoK`zan, you shouldn't need one really.02:02
alteregoNot with the N80002:02
K`zanNormally the thrift shops are crawling in USB keyboards, but not lately.02:02
alteregoMy idea is .. : 4 port mini hub: USB keyboard, USB -> Nokia charger, USB -> Ethernet, USB -> IDE adapter :)02:02
alteregoThat way I only need one plug to keep my Nokia charged and use it at the same time.02:02
K`zanIf nothing else it serves as an adapter for the different connectors.  Might work that way without power.02:03
K`zanHummm, got a couple 4 port hubs here, perhaps I should try that.02:03
alteregoI'm short of a keyboard, USB charger and ethernet.02:03
K`zanConsidering I trashed a usb 1.1 hub to get the connetors :).  1.1 should be good enough for ethernet and keyboard.02:03
alteregoI'll also construct a battery pack out of an old laptop battery.02:03

*** baro_ has quit IRC02:05
K`zanSeems to work fine.02:05
alteregoOoo .. I've had a cunning idea.02:06
K`zanThe black thing between the connectors is for a wall wart.02:06
K`zann800 camera would be more useful if it just sucked...02:06
alteregoI setup a daemon on my home server to keep a port forwarded connection to my static server on the net. Which keeps an ssh connection.02:06
K`zanCan power it from a USB host or wall wart.02:06
alteregoSo I ssh to my rubyx server but it gets forwarded into my workstation,02:06
alteregobetter than that dyndns shite :D02:06
K`zanalterego: Yes, they seem to have dropped static for a monthly money nag now.02:07

alteregoThat's a pretty aweful quality picture :P02:07
alteregoN800?02:07
zerojayYep.02:08
K`zanYes, using a fluorescent lamp on the desk02:08
zerojayI can tell with the fuzz pattern.02:08
K`zanI'm not sure why they bothered.02:08
alteregoCute.02:08
TimRikerdisabling XVideo on Xomap just breaks video calling. the app does not fall back to anything apparently.02:08
zerojayWell because it's not meant to be used as a camera.02:08
K`zanMaybe got a discontinued batch of end line ones cheap...02:09
zerojayFor something simple like video calls, the camera is just fine.02:09
alteregoI think the interference is from the hardware.02:09
K`zanOr they are rat shack floor sweepings :).02:09
alteregoI've not bothered trying it in offline mode ..02:09
ds3K`zan: isn't it easier to do it with a powered hub (and just use the power hub wall wart)02:12
K`zands3: In retrospect, probably although I haven't tried it yet.02:12
K`zands3: But it was fun to build something.02:13
ds3heh, can't argue on that ;)02:13
alteregoNow to make it wireless ;)02:13
ds3K`zan: is that the only thing you need to do to make it work? (i.e. are there any flasher switches or other software toggles)02:13
K`zanSOmething changed here, I can hear signals on the radio (the one I got from the thrift store yesterday :-).  Normally noise is VERY high here, might build a low power tramsmitter.02:14
K`zands3: I'm no expert but you need to echo "host" to a file to get it to work, hold a sec.02:14
alteregoOkay, my shiny radio alarm clock is set.02:15

*** alterego has quit IRC02:15
ds3someone here was claiming full OTG support but from my experience with a similar OMAP proc, that's not the state of the usb driver :/02:15
K`zanI still have not clue one what is different between OTG and USB :)02:15
ds3K`zan: OTG is a supplement to USB 2.0; it provides for automatic switching between host and device modes02:15
K`zanAh, apparently not on the n800, I think.02:16
ds3so if OTG is there, I should be able to plug a host in there an HNP (I think) should figure it out; or if I put a miniA in there, it should become a host unless HNP says otherwise02:16

halleyRight now I get only ~8 frames per second, because python is SO SLOW on the tablet.06:45
pupnikheh06:46
halleyThe pixel-pushing isn't the problem, the python in my library is a bit too general-purpose.06:46

freychefWhen I plug my n800 into my desktop, how can I get the desktop to read the n800's entire file system and not just the external mem card? Doable?06:55
pupniki think you can make samba share of your root fs06:56
freychefdesktop is a linux box.06:56
freychefis this a root vs user question?06:57
halleyfreychef, I might be wrong but I think it's just that it's easier to host a block device if the whole hosted entity is one filesystem and filesystem type (e.g., fat32).06:59
halleyYou would have to do some weird translation stuff if hosting the "root" because root contains branches that are different internal hardware components, filesystems, and even formats.07:00
freychefok, but isn't the internal memory card also formatted with fat32?07:00
halleyNo, jffs2 for the root.07:00
freychefok, that's my problem then, I'll have to dig around a little more.07:01
halleyEven if they're the same format, they are different block devices.  Hosting happens at the block level, not the file level.07:01
halleyAgain, I could be wrong, but that is my understanding.07:01
freychefok, seems to be a good explaination.07:02
freychefthanks.07:02

Fenix-Darkany of you notice problems with the n800's screen scratching?07:42
l7hrm, not me, but i use a screen guard07:43
GeneralAntillesDid you take off the factory protector?07:43
l7not yet07:43
Fenix-Darki replaced my dead 770 with an n800, i just opened the package, and the screen is all scratched up07:43
l7should i take it off?07:43
GeneralAntilleshttps://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=252307:44
l7i should get around to ordering a glossy boxwave screen guard07:44
GeneralAntillesEven Quim fails at submitting bugs.07:44
GeneralAntillesWait until you get another one.07:44
GeneralAntillesFenix-Dark, it's the screen protector that's scratched07:44
GeneralAntillesnot the screen itself.07:44
GeneralAntillesGet the anti-glare, l7.07:45
GeneralAntillesIt's much more legible.07:45
Fenix-DarkGeneralAntilles, you're correct07:45
GeneralAntillesI'd leave it on until you get a third party protector07:45
GeneralAntillesThe Boxwave anti-glare ones are very nice.07:45
l7hrm...07:47
l7someone else told me that the glossy was "like having nothing on the screen"07:47
GeneralAntillesYes, but you get a shitload of glare.07:48
l7does the anti-glare one seem a bit duller?07:48
GeneralAntillesThe anti-glare has A. a much better texture (mildly paper-like), and B. anti-glare.07:48
GeneralAntillesIt is, yes, but you wont notice it.07:48
GeneralAntillesIt's maybe a 2-4% reduction in brightness.07:48
l7now that you mention it, i notice there is some annoying reflections coming from the factory screen guard07:49
GeneralAntillesWell worth the better feel and the improved legibility in all lighting conditions.07:49
l7is the glossy one comparable to the factory screen guard in glare?07:49
GeneralAntillesSeems like it07:49
GeneralAntillesThe glossy one was on a friends Palm.07:49
GeneralAntillesIt was a while ago07:50
l7have you tried both screen guards?07:50
GeneralAntillesand I scratched my factory protector to hell very quickly.07:50
GeneralAntillesOnly tried the anti-glare on my own hardware07:50
freychefi'm looking at their website now...it list a protector for the 770. will that fit on the n800 as well?07:50
l7i usually use the n800 at home with dim lighting, but it would be annoying to get a lot of glare if i used it outside07:50
GeneralAntillesglossy was on a friend's.07:50
GeneralAntillesBut it had a lot of glare.07:50
GeneralAntillesThey have a page for the N800, too.07:51
GeneralAntillesBut, yes, the screen sizes are the same, freychef.07:51
l7freychef: i think the screen sizes are the same, but don't quote me07:51
GeneralAntillesOh, also, the anti-glare doesn't finger-print nearly as easily.07:51
corevettescreen sizes are same07:51
GeneralAntillesThey are the same, l7.07:51
l7you can quote GeneralAntilles i guess :)07:51
freychefOK thanks.07:52
Fenix-Darkoh wow07:52
l7GeneralAntilles: have you used the anti-glare screen outdoors?07:52
Fenix-Darkthe stylus in the n800 is a lot better than the ones from the 77007:52
GeneralAntillesA lot, l7.07:52
GeneralAntillesIt's very good.07:52
l7how does sunlight affect it?07:52
GeneralAntillesYou wont have trouble with glare.07:52
l7sometimes i wind up hitting myself in the eyes with reflected sunlight from my cell phone07:53
GeneralAntillesJust the N800's generally poor outdoor visibility.07:53
|Rfreychef : do you have many friends in montreal with n8x0 devices?07:53
l7i don't suppose the anti-glare will do much about reflected sun though07:53
*** K`zan has joined #maemo07:53
GeneralAntillesIt's much more diffused, l7.07:53
|Ryeah not perfect but without anti glare i would get directly blinded :)07:53
l7haha07:54
Fenix-Darkmeh, the case with the 770 was better07:54
GeneralAntillesThen use that case, Fenix-Dark. :P07:54
Fenix-Darki dont have it anymore07:54
l7 |R: do you have the box wave anti-glare too?07:54
freychef|R: no just me.07:55
l7hrm, i wonder if there is a poll on preferred screen protectors07:55
GeneralAntillesanti-glare, l7.07:55
|Rl7 :yep07:55
GeneralAntillesTrust me on this one. :P07:55
Fenix-Darkdoes the n800 work with wpa207:56
l7heh okay, thanks for the advice07:56
GeneralAntillesJust fine, Fenix-Dark.07:56

|Ri'd be curious to try this one though07:56
GeneralAntillesNetwork hidden, Fenix-Dark?07:57
astro76|R, I can tell you how bad that would be07:57
|Rastro76 : oh?07:57
Fenix-DarkGeneralAntilles, nope07:57
astro76|R, put it on a cell phone once, it's extremely rubbery, very poor texture for touch screen07:57
astro76takes a lot of moisture to apply too07:58
|Rastro76: had it on a D2 (cowon) and it worked well with touch screen, but applying it with the water bottle is a PITA...07:58
|Ri just don't remember how it delt with glare...07:58
astro76I can't imagine it would stop any glare07:58
|R(not that boxwave was very fun to apply either...)07:58
astro76at least the boxwave is washable/reappliable07:59
|Ryeah07:59
l7hrm, the invisible shield one seems much harder07:59
|R5 times haha ;)07:59
l7is it still good after five times?07:59
l7or is it all wrinkled after five time?07:59
astro76the invisible shield can also stretch out of shape07:59
|Ryeah just what i had to go through to apply...07:59
|Rwith invisishield you'll probably run out of water in their bottle07:59
l7ouch07:59
l7how exactly does the boxwave installation go?08:00
|Ranyway, go with boxwave anti-glare :)08:00
|Rthey're all painfull08:00
l7i guess step one is removing all dust08:00
|Rhehe08:00
|Ryeah08:00
GeneralAntillesboxwave wasn't too bad08:00
GeneralAntillesIt's just the dust08:00
|Rand then step 2 is the same08:00
|Rand 3 and 4 and ... i think my house is too old ;)08:00
l7why can't nokia just install em of us? :/08:00
GeneralAntillesBut it's durable, and reaplicable.08:01
l7so it's a lot of washing and drying before you get a good install?08:01
GeneralAntillesCosts money, l7.08:01
GeneralAntillesA bit08:01
l7maybe i should move into a clean room...08:01
GeneralAntillesIt actually helps if you leave it a little damp when you're applying.08:01
l7yeah i was kidding :/08:01
l7leave it damp?  how will the moisture get out later?08:02
GeneralAntillesIt's got a plastic applicator thing08:02
l7i assume you don't want moisture in your tablet..08:02
GeneralAntillesTo press out bubbles and such08:02
GeneralAntillesJust press the few drops out to the edges and wipe them off.08:02
l7won't that mean the water will be pushed to the edge of the screen where it could get behind the panel?08:03
GeneralAntillesPanel is sealed.08:03

*** ramo102 has joined #maemo12:45
oil_can we unwrap the sed string. .* = everything, (.*\) prints what is inside the () ?12:45
oil_kulve. it can, but when doing echo $XML > file , there was no newlines12:46
kulveok12:46
kulve\(.*\) puts those to variable 1 and the \1 then "prints" it..12:47
oil_ok. thanks12:47
kulvewhat do you mean by "doesn't work"?12:47
kulveprints nothing? Too much?12:48
oil_sorry. yes. it prints after the </p> as well.. untill the last </p> on the document12:48
kulvethat's because you have .* inside the ()12:49
kulve. is any char and * is 0-n12:49
kulvereplace the .* with [^<]12:49
kulvethen it's any character but not <12:49

Khertan_TheRealouch really a good skateboarder :)13:49
X-Fade_lardman: I don't see code where you set byteRead?13:51
lardmanno, but it does have a value as the dbg() statement returns it13:52
lardmanfwiw here's where it's set: http://maemo.pastebin.com/m5ba9fac613:52
*** booiiing has quit IRC13:53
X-Fade_Note that your return a size_t and byteRead is int?13:53
lardmanyes, the sizes of the types are all a bit screwed up I admit13:53
*** Vulc|Sleeps has quit IRC13:53
lardmansize_t should map to unsigned long I think, so it should work ok13:53
X-Fade_lardman: Yeah, memcpy expects size_t too ;)13:53
lardmanI'll change byteRead to Uns (unsigned int) then, would that make a difference?13:54
X-Fade_Nah, don't think so. It'll just silence warnings.13:55
lardmanI can't see that it would, in one function it has a +ve value, and in the next it is =013:55
X-Fade_Is this multiple threads?13:55
lardmanyes13:55
X-Fade_Maybe timing related?13:55
*** lele has joined #maemo13:56
X-Fade_Some race condition?13:56
lardmanthe two functions in the first pastebin are in the same thread, the function which sets byteRead is in another thread13:56
lardmanit shouldn't matter, the problem of transfering the value of byteRead occurs in the same thread13:56
X-Fade_Maybe you should put a mutex around it to be sure it doesn't change in between?13:56
lopzhola13:56
lardmanX-Fade_: ah, that's an option13:57
lardmanBut... it should never return to =0, not until the last bytes have been read13:58
X-Fade_lardman: It can actually be that you see the results of a second read while still processing the first block..13:58
*** DeLe0n has left #maemo13:58
X-Fade_And that that second read gets 0 bytes..13:58
X-Fade_lardman: You can test this by just copying the value of byteRead at the begin of ReadDataFromARM.13:59
lardmanit's an option, but the second read doesn't get 0 bytes13:59
X-Fade_And see if it returns that value correctly..13:59
lardmanalso, in ivorbisidec_rcv_bksnd a dbg() statement is output before the value of byteRead is changed: dbg(task, "rcv_bksnd");13:59
lardmanwe only see this message once in the dmesg output14:00
lardmanthe other thing is that in ReadDataFromARM() I call bkreqp() which requests data from the ARM. I then wait on a semaphore. When the data arrives and ivorbisidec_rcv_bksnd() is called by the dspgateway, it alters the value of byteRead and posts the semaphore and we continue in ReadDataFromARM14:02
*** Sho_ has joined #maemo14:02
lardmanI don't call bkreqp() again, and if I did I'd see a message.14:02
X-Fade_Yeah, weird..14:03
lardmanperhaps the compiler doesn't like function pointers?14:03
X-Fade_I would try to copy the value, just in case. But that shouldn't matter..14:03
lardmanI'll alter the way _get_data() works and just use the global variable and see if that works14:04

lardmanIf I declare it in one file, I don't need a header there, then I should place "extern ..." in a header to import into another file?16:44
*** matt_c has joined #maemo16:45
lardmanhow is that different from not using a header and placing the extern statement in the .c file?16:45
wumpuswell, if you want to use the same variable from another file, you should use extern, yes16:45
*** greentux_ has quit IRC16:45
*** ol_schoola has quit IRC16:45
wumpusuh, none16:45
wumpusyou could paste the content of all header files into every program and it'd still work, there's nothing magical about them16:46
TakI vote that you paste all the content in every file16:46
Takyou get hyperredundancy that way16:46
lardmanmy point exactly, I don't have a head file as I didn't expect to need to extern this var16:46
lardmanbut... if there's a problem with doing it this way I'd like to head about it (and not the unmaintainability thing)16:46
wumpusTak: that'd be very useful, at least if one file gets corrupted, most still compile!16:46
wumpusyou should use a different copy of gcc too for each file, just in case :P16:47
