| unixSnob | Any kernel experts here? | 03:07 |
| Navi | Also, I can't open the dialog to enable/disable applets | 03:07 |
| unixSnob | Suppose a rogue driver tries to access a restricted part of memory. Is Maemo good enough to deny access, and continue running, or does it kernel panic? | 03:08 |
| unixSnob | my finger works on the n800 even if I don't use my nail | 03:09 |
| unixSnob | but try flipping your hand palm facing up, and tap w/ your nails.. it'll probably work better for you navi | 03:10 |
| nomis | unixSnob: drivers running in the kernel may access all kinds of restricted parts. Unless you have a memory protection unit or something similiar the rogue driver won't be stopped. | 03:10 |
| unixSnob | What do you mean a "memory protection unit"? | 03:11 |
| unixSnob | is that something that can be added to the kernel? | 03:11 |
| nomis | unixSnob: that is a hardware part in some CPUs. | 03:12 |
| unixSnob | interesting.. I'd like to know more about that | 03:12 |
| nomis | (I actually don't know what facilities the ARM based CPUs in the nokia tablets have. | 03:13 |
| nomis | it might be part of the MMU. | 03:13 |
| unixSnob | Well, in terms of desktop PCs, is that available in some cpus? | 03:13 |
| *** ywwg has joined #maemo | 03:14 | |
| nomis | unixSnob: I can only tell you that in the blackfin CPU a protection unit is available (and - if enabled - tends to bite you) despite blackfin not having a MMU. | 03:14 |
| unixSnob | I always thought linux was more reliable than Windows, because I get BSODs all the time, but almost never get kernel panics.. but folks are telling me it only appears that way because linux drivers are better. | 03:14 |
| unixSnob | In fact someone over in #linux said linux would get kernel panics as often as Windows gets BSODs if it ran as many rogue drivers. | 03:16 |
| nomis | unixSnob: that is true. It is quite easy to crash/hang the kernel with buggy drivers. | 03:16 |
| nomis | unixSnob: the key part is, that nearly all linux drivers are free software and everybody can try to fix them if they behave problematic. | 03:17 |
| *** Zetx has quit IRC | 03:18 | |
| unixSnob | I'm surprized OSs don't have a protective layer of some kind | 03:18 |
| unixSnob | Seems like a kernel could simply deny access to bad requests | 03:18 |
| nomis | unixSnob: if some taiwan company produces some random hardware and of course also has to ship a driver for win, they might hack on the driver to get something that works for them. But since they don't open up the source the only party able to fix the drivers are themselves. If they are working on the next product, the motivation to fix an "old" driver is pretty low. | 03:19 |
| nomis | unixSnob: if I understood that correctly microkernels might have such an architecture. | 03:19 |
| nomis | (Linux is not a microkernel) | 03:20 |
| unixSnob | yeah, i've heard that a microkernel can actually be proven to be crash free. | 03:20 |
| unixSnob | I suppose it has to be a very small feature poor type of OS | 03:21 |
| nomis | unixSnob: that probably is a misconception. | 03:21 |
| nomis | unixSnob: at one point there has been a huge (famous) flamewar on that topic between Tanenbaum and Torvalds. | 03:21 |
| unixSnob | who's tanenbaum? | 03:22 |
| nomis | unixSnob: google for him. | 03:22 |
| *** seraph1 has joined #maemo | 03:22 | |
| *** Tama^2 has joined #maemo | 03:22 | |
| unixSnob | Do linux and Windows both make use of the memory protection logic if the hardware offers it? | 03:24 |
| unixSnob | ah, minix.. I recall reading about that.. part of where linux came from.. or inspired it | 03:24 |
| nomis | unixSnob: I believe that you overestimate the importance of that memory protection logic thingie. | 03:25 |
| unixSnob | s/logic/unit/ | 03:25 |
| nomis | unixSnob: being able to access protected memory is the whole Point of kernel and/or drivers. | 03:26 |
| unixSnob | Well, look at what a bsod/kernel panic does.. kills everything that's running fine. | 03:26 |
| unixSnob | If that can be intercepted, and not bring the whole system down, seems like a big plus. | 03:26 |
| lcuk | ok, so the video driver b0rks. how do you carry on working? | 03:27 |
| *** pvanhoof has quit IRC | 03:27 | |
| lcuk | or the hard disk controller? | 03:27 |
| unixSnob | Those are essential. | 03:27 |
| nomis | unixSnob: Linux has non-fatal oopses. But if your system for some reason gets into an inconsistent state would you rather ignore that and risk corrupting data? | 03:27 |
| unixSnob | However, I currently get a bsod if I simply insert a CD. I don't care if windows disables my CD drive so everything else can continue | 03:28 |
| lcuk | thats usually because windows tried to access data off the disk bus and oooh looksie something is corrupt in the ide driver | 03:29 |
| unixSnob | I might.. I might like to be offered an option.. red pill or blue pill. | 03:29 |
| nomis | unixSnob: BSODs is not something to take lightly. There is nothing that guarantees that this only affects the CD drive. | 03:29 |
| unixSnob | Right, but it seems an OS could prevent non-essential rogue processes from crashing a whole system | 03:29 |
| lcuk | it could be the northbridge overheating or the memory is bad, the biggest thing i would say there is: check the hardware - i never see bsods or anything - i have stable hardware | 03:30 |
| *** Zetty has quit IRC | 03:30 | |
| lcuk | the software is doing its best to tell you theres a big problem | 03:30 |
| nomis | unixSnob: if you are talking about user space processes then you are right and this already happens. A user space process accessing the wrong memory gets killed with a segfault. | 03:30 |
| unixSnob | Yeah, I see that seg fault on things I'm working on (on linux). | 03:31 |
| unixSnob | Does windows have the same protection from user space processes? | 03:31 |
| nomis | but a CD drive relies on the IDE bus which in turn probably depends on the DMA engines which access the Memory. Which part do you want to disable when it turns out that somewhere in that pipeline something goes very wrong? | 03:32 |
| *** atlas95 has quit IRC | 03:32 | |
| nomis | unixSnob: current Windows'ses yes. If a user space application crashes it usually does not affect the other running processes. | 03:32 |
| unixSnob | I would just want it to disable the CDROM driver | 03:32 |
| nomis | unixSnob: so if the problem is actually in the IDE driver and it starts randomizing your data on the harddisk, this is fine with you? | 03:33 |
| lcuk | unixSnob, go into device manager and disable it then | 03:33 |
| unixSnob | I would feel confident that it's the driver at fault, because it happens when a CD is inserted, and never when HDD activity is called for | 03:34 |
| Navi | I can't open the applet selector :/ | 03:34 |
| unixSnob | lcuk - I'm not given time to do that between inserting the CD, and getting the BSOD | 03:35 |
| nomis | unixSnob: but that is your human intuition telling you this. The OS cannot know. | 03:35 |
| *** t_s_o has quit IRC | 03:35 | |
| lcuk | hint: you can disable it right now *before* you put another cd in, or you know, you could use your head and not put cds in. i haven't asked but is it a specific cd you are putting in which makes it crash, or do other cds work? | 03:36 |
| lcuk | "Sony rootkit edition" | 03:37 |
| unixSnob | It's when I start a NERO burn process, and insert a blank. Brand doesn't matter. | 03:37 |
| unixSnob | And it doesn't happen every time, just half the time. | 03:37 |
| unixSnob | Also, I've only seen it with NERO I think.. not with the HP provided app. | 03:37 |
| unixSnob | But I know it can't be Nero, right, because that's in the user space. | 03:38 |
| *** smackpotat1 has quit IRC | 03:38 | |
| lcuk | right, so now we are getting somewhere. its not the actual operating system thats doing this, its the interaction between neros funky none standardness and another none standard app and windows's own cd burning thing | 03:38 |
| *** v-vN800 has quit IRC | 03:38 | |
| lcuk | nero has some aspi driver scsi cover thing doesnt it | 03:38 |
| nomis | oh, and I would suspect that nero installs custom drivers. | 03:38 |
| nomis | anyway. /me heads for the bed now. Night all. | 03:39 |
| unixSnob | So Nero is operating outside of the user space? | 03:39 |
| unixSnob | night | 03:39 |
| lcuk | so - the operating system driver works. the oem providers software works. the custom nero tool doesnt. go whine at them not debating operating systems | 03:39 |
| nomis | unixSnob: look, at #maemo we are not really experts for windows problems. If it only happens with nero you could just call the nero support. | 03:40 |
| unixSnob | What do you whine at them? I don't even care if that problem gets solved, that's not why I brought it up | 03:40 |
| * fysa yawns | 03:41 | |
| unixSnob | nomis, thanks.. you actually seem to know more than the folks in #linux, and I'm almost afraid of what I'll find in #windows | 03:41 |
| * lcuk wonders when nero and norton are gonna be available for n810 | 03:41 | |
| * fysa compiles a hammer to smash his own face in. | 03:42 | |
| lcuk | lol | 03:42 |
| nomis | unixSnob: going back to the memory protection thing - each driver would have to register where it has to access protected memory. The driver itself is the only one knowing this. The kernel maybe then could prevent them from accessing memory other than their registered memory. | 03:42 |
| nomis | unixSnob: however, this does not help if a rogue driver registers the wrong memory addresses and writes nonsense to them. | 03:43 |
| unixSnob | damn, so the memory protection unit is nearly worthless | 03:44 |
| *** Luria has joined #maemo | 03:44 | |
| nomis | I don't know how microkernels are supposed to work, but they have (I think) a strong layering in their internal infrastructure. That might help there. | 03:44 |
| unixSnob | I might explore that | 03:44 |
| nomis | but I think microkernels is more about a sane architecture than protecting random memory accesses/corruptions from buggy drivers. The question is: How do you specify what a driver is allowed to and what not? | 03:45 |
| nomis | ... and how do you detect a misbehaviour and the responsible party? | 03:46 |
| *** eton_ has quit IRC | 03:46 | |
| unixSnob | I would expect the driver to /ask/ the OS for an allocation | 03:46 |
| lcuk | you make all rouge processes indicate themselves with an evil bit | 03:46 |
| lcuk | rogue even, they arent red | 03:46 |
| unixSnob | And the OS should decide what block of memory the driver gets | 03:46 |
| *** mankod has joined #maemo | 03:46 | |
| lcuk | but what if all that happens and the driver writes bad data to its own memory block corrupting everything? | 03:47 |
| unixSnob | And then whenever a driver wants to write, it sends what it wants written to the OS, who does it. | 03:47 |
| unixSnob | And if the reference is bad, the OS rejects it | 03:47 |
| lcuk | but how does the os know what is right? | 03:47 |
| unixSnob | The OS did the allocation | 03:48 |
| lcuk | the reference location is correct, im just stuffing the wrong data into it | 03:48 |
| lcuk | like image width 0xfffe | 03:48 |
| ljp | anyone know if there is a developer reference rootfilesystem for OS2008? | 03:48 |
| unixSnob | Right, and that's fine, that's not going to corrupt /other/ processes | 03:48 |
| nomis | unixSnob: wait, we're not only talking about the usual RAM memory. | 03:48 |
| lcuk | but the device is the hard disk | 03:48 |
| unixSnob | If a process wants to trash itself, there's only so much you can do | 03:49 |
| unixSnob | Sure, but that's always a risk | 03:49 |
| lcuk | so its now writing directly to the hard drive at arbitary sectors | 03:49 |
| nomis | unixSnob: there are things like IO-Adresses, Registers etc. pp. which are adressed the same way as the regular memory. Drivers need to access this. | 03:49 |
| nomis | unixSnob: *and* which affect the behaviour of the whole CPU. | 03:49 |
| unixSnob | Yeah, well, there's a limitation on how much one can protect. | 03:50 |
| unixSnob | But it seems in the current state of things, kernels are not protecting half of what they could | 03:50 |
| lcuk | so, you just made the system 10 times slower and you arent any better off because when your legitimate nero device driver does the wrong thing on the ide port the next process needing data becomes borken | 03:51 |
| unixSnob | I mean, there's no reason to give a video driver access to IDE drivers memory space | 03:51 |
| lcuk | they are protected just fine. if software is unstable, uninstall the fucking thing | 03:51 |
| nomis | unixSnob: did you ever do driver development? | 03:52 |
| unixSnob | no | 03:52 |
| unixSnob | but it sounds like a free for all :) | 03:52 |
| unixSnob | I could write a webcam driver that dumps all over a USB drivers space, if I wanted, apparently | 03:53 |
| nomis | unixSnob: I did, and I think that you're barking up the wrong tree. Most problems have other reasons than memory corruption I think. | 03:53 |
| lcuk | ok, microsoft have thought of this, they have a designed for xxx. ONLY use legit software - that means NOT installing anything else | 03:53 |
| *** smackpotato has joined #maemo | 03:53 | |
| lcuk | if the "i cant see a digital signature" warning comes up, heed it and dont install the driver | 03:54 |
| unixSnob | Well, my CD driver happens to be Windows certified, in fact, produced by MS. | 03:54 |
| nomis | unixSnob: I think it is quite likely that the nero driver fucks up your IDE bus. Memory protection would not help, because the CDROM driver *has* to use the IDE stuff. | 03:54 |
| unixSnob | But I guess it's the nero driver that's bad | 03:54 |
| lcuk | but not the ones from nero, or the others which are in the cd chain | 03:54 |
| *** unique311 has joined #maemo | 03:54 | |
| lcuk | have you installed any games? | 03:55 |
| nomis | that signature stuff is bogus anyway. | 03:55 |
| lcuk | because THEY install drivers through hidden back doors to "validate" your disks authenticity. those cause problems | 03:55 |
| nomis | lcuk: well, as far as I understood this discussion we're not really trying to fix the specific problem. | 03:55 |
| nomis | thats not the point. | 03:55 |
| unixSnob | hm.. dunno if i've installed games since my last reinstall | 03:55 |
| lcuk | no, but its making the point about his issue because he keeps bringing it back up re: protecting the system | 03:56 |
| unixSnob | Right, i don't care about the problem.. just want to understand BSODs generally | 03:56 |

| lcuk | for the nokia, bad software comes around like in windows, but more often than not its repaired quickly. there was a storm in a teacup recently when people installed the rfcomm stack | 03:57 |

| *** massoud has joined #maemo | 03:58 | |
| nomis | unixSnob: an observation I made is that as soon as you isntall closed source drivers for linux (e.g. for graphics cards) the system stability tends to get hurt. | 03:58 |
| nomis | unixSnob: the obvious downside is, that there are by far less drivers for linux. | 03:59 |
| nomis | i.e. you have to pick your hardware more carefully. | 03:59 |
| unixSnob | Yeah, I agree closed source isn't /seen/ as much, thus less reliable | 03:59 |
| unixSnob | I'm just not sure why that principle doesn't carry into the kernel itself | 04:00 |
| nomis | huh? | 04:00 |
| unixSnob | Eg. the Windows kernel is as reliable as teh linux kernel | 04:00 |
| unixSnob | (drivers aside) | 04:00 |
| unixSnob | closed source has fewer eyes on it, so fewer defects are discovered | 04:01 |
| lcuk | i would hazard thats not entirely the case all the time. certain projects get the lions share of eyes whilst others trundle along with users and exploits just sitting under then like anything else | 04:02 |

| *** mystic_cat has quit IRC | 04:06 | |
| unixSnob | Cerfied drivers just mean they were tested by MS, AFAIK | 04:06 |
| nomis | unixSnob: I tried to explain it above: it is simply a *very* hard problem to tell, which access to some IO-Memory/Registers is legitimate. | 04:06 |
| nomis | unixSnob: that problem sounds a lot like a problem for an AI. | 04:07 |
| unixSnob | Right, I understood that.. I suppose drivers must be able to access registers and the like. | 04:07 |
| unixSnob | But it sounds like drivers have free rein on every element in the system, and I think a smartly designed OS could stop that | 04:08 |
| nomis | the best thing a kernel can do is to provide APIs to access the ressources in a controlled manner, so that driver developers can use a more high level stuff with less chances to get stuffwrong. | 04:08 |
| unixSnob | Right, that makes sense | 04:09 |
| unixSnob | Does that happen? | 04:09 |
| nomis | (and the linux kernel does that, although the internal APIs tend to change frequently) | 04:09 |
| unixSnob | Does the windows kernel do that? | 04:10 |
| nomis | unixSnob: yeah. For examle if you want to use a DMA there is an API to request it, configure it and use it. | 04:10 |
| nomis | unixSnob: I would suspect that windows does that as well. I have no real clue though. | 04:10 |
| *** BTobotras has joined #maemo | 04:11 | |
| unixSnob | That would actually be a good way to assess reliability on an OS.. by how much of an API is offered to drivers | 04:12 |
| nomis | anyway. It is 3:15 AM here and I'll head for the bed now. | 04:12 |

| livinded | I'm working on a bluetooth chat program | 07:30 |
| livinded | I'm looking into integrating it with pidgin | 07:30 |
| livinded | there really isn't a reason to design a whole new gui when a pretty good one already exists | 07:31 |
| livinded | how does that contact viewer differ from the one that comes with the n810? | 07:31 |
| *** desrt has joined #maemo | 07:32 | |
| derf | GTK is good stuff, compared to most GUI toolkits. | 07:32 |
| derf | It's still got its warts, but they're livable. | 07:32 |
| livinded | I like Qt a lot and cocoa is pretty nice, but I just don't like programming in C++ and I don't own a mac or know objective-c | 07:33 |
| BTobotras | livinded: it doesn't require six clicks to see one's phone number :) | 07:33 |
| derf | Well, if you don't like programming in C++, that already means you have good taste. | 07:33 |
| * BTobotras shrugs | 07:33 | |
| livinded | derf: I know, it's a shame that there are a few things that C++ actually almost is useful for | 07:34 |
| derf | livinded: I've never found one. | 07:34 |
| livinded | the way that qt is designed, it wouldn't really work well with C | 07:34 |
| derf | This is true of many libraries. I stand by my answer. | 07:35 |
| derf | Actually, I take it back. C++ has one useful feature, which is that it identifies bad programmers (i.e., those who want to use it). | 07:35 |
| *** Cptnodegard has joined #maemo | 07:35 | |
| livinded | alright, maybe I phrased it wrong, C++ isn't really good for it, but there isn't an alternative available that as many programmers know | 07:35 |
| derf | That I'll believe. | 07:36 |
| derf | There's still a whole quantity vs. quality argument to be had in there, however. | 07:37 |
| livinded | the problem with C++ is that it badly fills a void that no other language does | 07:37 |
| derf | I suppose you can argue for many applications it doesn't really matter. | 07:37 |
| *** Lateralus has quit IRC | 07:37 | |

| derf | Most programming in the real world is just plumbing, anyway. | 07:37 |
| *** desrt has left #maemo | 07:38 | |
| livinded | it's low level enough to be used in situations where you need speed and low level optimization while being high level enough to allow for object oriented design patterns | 07:39 |
| derf | Yes, but object-oriented design patterns are often completely inappropriate. | 07:39 |
| derf | The problem is they're often the _only_ design patterns taught in schools, so nobody knows anything else. | 07:40 |
| derf | And when all you've got's a hammer... | 07:40 |
| *** Zetx has quit IRC | 07:40 | |
| livinded | I hate the comp sci program at my school, they teach it so backwards | 07:41 |
| livinded | and waste a ton of time teaching concepts in useless ways | 07:41 |
| *** jku has joined #maemo | 07:43 | |
| derf | Welcome to the comp sci program in almost every school. | 07:43 |
| derf | It's okay though, a bad education system keeps me well employed. | 07:45 |
| livinded | hopefully I'll be able to test out of the assembly class and go straight into the compiler design, I don't want to waste a semester learning a virtual architecture that I will never see again | 07:45 |
| derf | As long as you know a _real_ architecture, that's okay. | 07:45 |
| livinded | ia32 | 07:45 |
| livinded | and I've done some work with arm | 07:46 |
| derf | But there's some value in learning a simplified, virtual architecture for people who've never had experience with that sort of thing before. | 07:46 |
| livinded | they could at least teach mips or arm, at least that would be potentially useful and still simplified | 07:46 |
| derf | But someone would have to write a textbook around it, and they're constantly changing. | 07:47 |
| derf | So whatever you learned would be out of date, anyway. | 07:47 |
| derf | But honestly... we spent less than half a semester on the virtual architecture when I took that course, and I'd already learned a similar virtual architecture in high school, so I spent maybe a grand total of 3 hours out of class on all of the projects for it. | 07:49 |
| derf | This does not strike me as a large time investment. | 07:49 |
| livinded | not really, the architecture manual available for free online and maybe a small intro into hardware design covering the different components, memory sections, should be sufficient | 07:49 |
| derf | livinded: I think you over-estimate most undergraduates' abilities. | 07:49 |
| derf | Normal people, even normal CS people, don't read architecture manuals. | 07:50 |
| livinded | considering the assembly class isn't required for the major I think it would be alright | 07:50 |
| derf | It isn't?! | 07:50 |
| derf | That's downright wrong. | 07:50 |
| livinded | my experience with arm was diassembling a binary I had carved out of a restore image by hand and reading the architecture manual to figure out how the bits were packed and what it was doing | 07:51 |
| derf | Please tell me there's _some_ kind of computer architecture class that's required. | 07:51 |
| livinded | nope | 07:51 |
| livinded | it's optional | 07:51 |
| derf | Don't tell me what school you go to. I don't want to lose all respect I might have for anyone who graduated from there. | 07:52 |
| derf | The one that really bothers me, and that I've run into a lot, are the people who don't know what the << and >> operators were originally for. | 07:54 |
| livinded | bitwise shift? | 07:56 |
| derf | Yes... there's a whole generation of students who don't know them as anything other the C++ I/O operators. | 07:57 |
| livinded | really? | 07:57 |
| derf | Really. | 07:57 |
| derf | It's astounding. | 07:57 |
| livinded | I'm totally against top down teaching of comp sci and they start us with java at my school | 07:57 |
| derf | I've talked to tenure-track professors who had never used them as such in their life. | 07:58 |
| derf | Well, Java is at least moderately cleaner than C++. | 07:58 |
| derf | It's a good language for mediocre programmers, which is probably what most students will wind up being. | 07:58 |
| livinded | I'd rather use something like SICP and teach scheme as the first class to get the students to understand what the language actually is doing | 07:59 |
| derf | The problem is, if you drown them in detail, many will give up before they figure out the big picture. | 08:00 |
| livinded | then use assembly for algorithms and work up from there teaching higher level languages as most graduates are going to be working with .net, java, or C++ most likely | 08:00 |
| * BTobotras reads russian translation of SICP to look for bugs and typos, as the translation asked for. | 08:00 | |
| derf | Now... maybe that's what you want. | 08:00 |
| derf | I know my undergrad university actively attempted to weed out students in the first two years. | 08:00 |
| livinded | derf: why should you saturate the field with incompetent programmers because there were a lot of lazy ones who wouldn't have graduated otherwise | 08:00 |
| derf | livinded: It's not that they're incompetent, it's that they don't learn the same way you do. | 08:01 |
| derf | There's also a big market for semi-competent programmers out there. | 08:02 |
| derf | As I said, most real-world programming is just plumbing. | 08:02 |
| derf | If all you had were extremely skilled programmers, they'd get bored out of their minds, and be ridiculously expensive in the bargain. | 08:02 |
| livinded | I just can't wait until I can take the security class, I'm going to just be evil to the other students | 08:03 |
| livinded | one of the rules is that you have to run a windows box, I'm going to run one with the NIC bound to a vmware device running openbsd which will only run publicfile and openssh | 08:03 |
| livinded | and maybe djbdns | 08:04 |
| derf | Nice. | 08:04 |
| livinded | not a single packet will ever touch the windows machine | 08:05 |
| Paavo | Sufficiently evil :) | 08:07 |
| derf | You might want to check before you do so, however. Some TA's do not have a sense of humor. | 08:07 |
| livinded | Paavo: this is the kind of stuff I think of when I zone out during my intro to java class | 08:08 |
| derf | You should definitely look into testing out more. | 08:09 |
| derf | I was taking 3rd-year courses by my second semester. | 08:09 |
| livinded | they wont let me | 08:09 |
| livinded | I wanted to go straight into the data structure class and compiler design class | 08:10 |
| derf | No, you usually have to jump through some administrative hoops first. | 08:10 |
| livinded | it doesn't help that I'm like 3 semesters behind in math though | 08:10 |
| derf | Oh, no, that won't help at all. | 08:10 |

| *** msanchez has joined #maemo | 09:38 | |
| dookdook | so you can't launch applications from the file manager? | 09:38 |
| jku | no, but there's really no need, is there? | 09:39 |
| dookdook | its just typing is so slow... | 09:39 |
| jku | there may be some desktop applets that let you add an icon to desktop... | 09:40 |
| jku | but really, try ssh | 09:40 |
| dookdook | yeah, i'll get that installed | 09:42 |
| *** abhishek has joined #maemo | 09:42 | |
| *** dolske has joined #maemo | 09:42 | |
| dookdook | just a few questions, if you don't mind. you can't run applications from the memory cards? and whats up with the permissions? i noticed that the group was root for the file on the memory card, making it so i couldn't change its properties.. | 09:43 |
| melmoth | vfat does not store owner/group info as far as i know | 09:43 |
| *** zwnj has quit IRC | 09:43 | |
| dookdook | is there an equivalent of sudo in this environment | 09:44 |
| melmoth | sudo :) | 09:44 |
| dookdook | ah, ok, sorry, you mentioned that earlier jku, i missed it... | 09:44 |
| dookdook | right right...so i sudo, asking for a password...i never set up a root account... | 09:44 |
| melmoth | thouhg i have problems with it when i add myself to the sudoers files (boot hang), so i just ssh root@localhost when needed | 09:44 |
| *** magicrobotmonkey has quit IRC | 09:45 | |
| melmoth | dookdook: install ssh from extras repo, the configuration part will prompt you for a root password | 09:45 |
| *** simon_ has joined #maemo | 09:45 | |
| *** fab has quit IRC | 09:46 | |
| dookdook | melmoth, can i just do something like apt-get install ssh on the nokia? | 09:47 |
| jku | as root yes | 09:48 |
| *** ramo102 has joined #maemo | 09:48 | |
| dookdook | um...if i can't change root password till i install ssh and i can't install ssh until i have root... | 09:48 |
| dookdook | oh, meaning, i can't until i have ssh set up via other means | 09:49 |
| *** trickie has joined #maemo | 09:49 | |
| melmoth | you should do, as long as the extras reposiory is activated | 09:49 |
| melmoth | (go in the pakcages installer application , it s there by default but not enabled) | 09:50 |
| melmoth | now, i have to rush. good luck. | 09:50 |
| dookdook | wait, sorry, wheres the packages installer? | 09:52 |

| dagb | I.e. as an AP. | 10:23 |
| GeneralAntilles | No. | 10:24 |
| GeneralAntilles | Unless you want to re-write the drivers, then "maybe". | 10:24 |
| dagb | 'No' as in 'there is no definitve answer' or as in 'cannot work in master mode' or 'cannot work in master mode with current drivers'? | 10:25 |
| dagb | I was under the impression that this is also a hardware feature. I might be mistaken. | 10:26 |
| GeneralAntilles | <GeneralAntilles> Unless you want to re-write the drivers, then "maybe". | 10:26 |

| *** guardian has joined #maemo | 10:43 | |
| dookdook | yeah, video is definately a little slow. playing an .avi under mplayer and its a little jerky | 10:43 |
| johnx | you'll probably have to re-encode a lot of your videos to make them playable 400x240 divx/mp4 w/ mp3 audio @ 700 - 1000Kb/s is pretty optimal | 10:44 |
| GeneralAntilles | Zic, somewhere between a NIT and a UMPC. | 10:44 |

| GeneralAntilles | dookdook, I've had good success with a lot of stuff in the ~560x420 range. | 10:45 |
| Zic | GeneralAntilles: the final question, is, is it « pocketable » | 10:45 |
| GeneralAntilles | and low-motion widescreen stuff up into the 600-pixel range horizontal. | 10:45 |
| Zic | for example, the actual hardware to dev Ubuntu Mobile is a Samsung Q1 Ultra | 10:45 |
| dookdook | ok, thanks for the suggestions | 10:46 |

| dookdook | so, i was hoping to try my hand at the mpeg2 stuff | 12:27 |
| AD-N770 | dookdook: last time that I was doing this stuff I noticed that qemu cann't run arm6 instructions, so you will have to write and test it on the device | 12:29 |

| dookdook | i might be remembering incorrectly, i thought qemu could but it was just slow? | 12:29 |
| AD-N770 | dookdook: my approach would be create a unit test simple code to test your assembly and including the C reference | 12:30 |
| AD-N770 | dookdook: last time that I checked qemu can't run arm6 media instructions due a legal restriction from arm | 12:31 |

| dookdook | ad-n770, i compiled the hello world for arm, set up the appropriate scratchbox environment and it ran fine... | 12:32 |
| dookdook | same code ran on the nokia... | 12:32 |
| AD-N770 | zuh: nice news | 12:32 |
| zuh | jumpula: Was an ARMv6-cabable qemu included in the recent sb cputransparency release? | 12:34 |
| *** ab has joined #maemo | 12:35 | |
| AD-N770 | dookdook: seems that I was wrong, I use to add -march=armv6j -mtune=arm1136j-s when the target device is n8x0 | 12:35 |
| AD-N770 | dookdook: I use to install ssh server and gdb on the device also | 12:36 |
| dookdook | i've got ssh running | 12:36 |
| dookdook | and you use gdb? | 12:36 |
| AD-N770 | dookdook: with a mini unit test it's easier to debug that with the decoder | 12:36 |

| AD-N770 | dookdook: yes, I use gdb on the device | 12:37 |
| jumpula | zuh: depends how capable you want it to be | 12:38 |

| *** Pio_ has joined #maemo | 12:39 | |
| florian | good morning | 12:40 |
| jumpula | but there are qemu's in the devkit that should run code compiled with options like -march=armv7a -mcpu=cortex-a8 | 12:40 |
| jumpula | so, arm6 *should* be pretty okay... | 12:40 |
| *** Pio has quit IRC | 12:40 | |
| jumpula | i've grown too cautious to say things like a simple yes :] | 12:41 |
| jumpula | (not implying that a simple yes would do in this case) | 12:41 |
| zuh | Oh yes, the "cabable" was more like "after the support has been implemented" not "v6 instructions work" :) | 12:43 |

| tony2001 | re | 14:13 |
| tony2001 | does anyone from Nokia know if there are any plans on opensourcing the Metalayer Crawler or at least releasing its specifications/documentation? | 14:14 |
| Jaffa | tony2001: if it's not already open source, qgil's previously said the best way is to raise an issues in bugs.maemo.org explaining why it should be opensource (or at least documented). | 14:15 |
| tony2001 | already done | 14:16 |
| tony2001 | but that doesn't seem to work =| | 14:16 |
| Tama^2 | tony can you paste the link to the bug report? | 14:16 |
| tony2001 | wait a sec | 14:16 |
| Tama^2 | thanks :) | 14:16 |
| tony2001 | https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2836 | 14:17 |
| tony2001 | this one is very annoying (well.. to me) | 14:17 |
| *** henrique has joined #maemo | 14:17 | |
| Tama^2 | IMO a substitute for the metalayer crawler would be easy to write becaus ethe sqlite db where it stores data is VERY simple | 14:17 |
| felipec | tony2001: we canot comment on any plans but I'll try to give this more visibility to this issue | 14:17 |
| *** luck^ has joined #maemo | 14:18 | |
| Tama^2 | anyway it should store metadata together with the data, not on the internal flash | 14:19 |
| tony2001 | Tama^2: I thought about it, but it would be much easier to fix the crawler than to write something similar from scratch | 14:19 |

| GeneralAntilles | It's a gross CPU hog on the tablet, anyway. | 14:21 |
| GeneralAntilles | Better off with hosts/css. | 14:21 |
| aquatix | hm, maybe | 14:21 |
| aquatix | but it really helps preserving bandwidth when on gprs | 14:21 |
| GeneralAntilles | That's what the hosts file is for. | 14:22 |
| aquatix | and it's more finegrained | 14:22 |
| aquatix | no, not all | 14:22 |
| aquatix | as you might want to block http://example.com/images/banner/ but not the rest | 14:22 |
| Tama^2 | I installed OS2007 and found that the battery consumption problem goes away | 14:22 |
| Tama^2 | so it's a regression in OS2008 | 14:22 |
| GeneralAntilles | Meh, the big CPU and memory hit from AdBlock doesn't make finegrained control worth it. | 14:22 |
| Tama^2 | :( | 14:22 |
| GeneralAntilles | Tama^2, what's eating your CPU? | 14:23 |
| aquatix | GeneralAntilles: do you have a good hosts file somewhere? | 14:23 |
| GeneralAntilles | google it, aquatix. . . . | 14:23 |
| MoRpHeUz | lightmediascanner does a great job regarding scanning metadata =) | 14:23 |
| aquatix | yeah, googling | 14:23 |
| aquatix | but there are loads of them; just wondering whether you found a good one | 14:23 |
| GeneralAntilles | They're all about the same as far as I can tell. | 14:23 |
| Tama^2 | GA: the kernel :P | 14:24 |
| *** t_s_o has joined #maemo | 14:24 | |
| aquatix | kk | 14:24 |
| Tama^2 | with sdcards inserted it drains 10x more power | 14:24 |
| Tama^2 | on OS2008 that is | 14:24 |
| aquatix | it does? | 14:25 |
| Tama^2 | no problem with OS2007 | 14:25 |
| GeneralAntilles | and it idles properly with the OS2007 kernel? | 14:25 |
| GeneralAntilles | Interesting. | 14:25 |
| * aquatix checks top | 14:25 | |
| Tama^2 | well, OS2008 reports to be at the lowest clock setting too | 14:25 |
| GeneralAntilles | Whether the SD cards are idling will have nothing to do with CPU usage, aquatix. | 14:25 |
| aquatix | metalayer-crawler is on 0.0 here | 14:26 |
| aquatix | with minisd card | 14:26 |
| Tama^2 | nonetheless the battery lasts 25 hours on OS2008 and *many* days on OS2007 | 14:26 |
| Tama^2 | aquatix: it's not a metalayer problem | 14:26 |
| aquatix | ok, i'm missing a part of the conversation then, sorry :) | 14:26 |
| GeneralAntilles | Tama^2, is there an easy way to check if the SD cards go to idle? | 14:26 |
| aquatix | ah, like that | 14:27 |
| Tama^2 | with a modified kernel one can see log lines indicating the power mode | 14:27 |
| Tama^2 | power mode '3' should be the lowest | 14:27 |
| GeneralAntilles | I left my alternate in N800 in car for 3 days and it had 7 days idle remaining. | 14:27 |
| Tama^2 | and I verified taht in OS2008 it always goes to more '3' | 14:27 |
| GeneralAntilles | Though it only has two SD cards. | 14:27 |
| *** barisione has quit IRC | 14:28 | |

| aquatix | i'll get a cleartouch though | 14:42 |
| aquatix | i think | 14:43 |
| GeneralAntilles | I wouldn't. | 14:43 |

| aquatix | hm :) | 14:44 |
| * aquatix cleans both screens and does a comparison | 14:44 | |

| Juhaz | only few after several years | 14:45 |
| aquatix | well, i use the tip of my finger nail quite a lot on the screen | 14:45 |
| aquatix | so i'm more comfortable with a protector | 14:45 |
| GeneralAntilles | Juhaz, regardless, the improvements in visibility and texture are well worth it. | 14:46 |

| jeddy3 | nice tip on boxwave, ordered one right now | 14:53 |
| aquatix | jeddy3: yeah, they are the best imho | 14:53 |
| dookdook | so i found a /var/lib/dpkg/info/gcc-3.4-base.list and it shows a couple of files having to do with documentation but no actual gcc...does gcc-3.4-base not actually install gcc? | 14:53 |
| achadwick | maemo-mapper users: anyone know if Track>Save... will export Marks to GPX? | 14:53 |
| GeneralAntilles | It mostly just reduces brightness a bit (Boxwave says 5%), it really doesn't affect clarity. | 14:53 |
| * jeddy3 uses screen protector included in package :) | 14:53 | |
| aquatix | and they have screen protectors for almost all things with a touch screen ;) | 14:53 |
| GeneralAntilles | jeddy3, I used that one for 6 months. | 14:53 |
| aquatix | GeneralAntilles: i meant brightness indeed | 14:54 |

| Robot101 | the "shipping protector" scratches and marks incredibly easily, it can make the device practically unusable versus just taking it off and keeping your device in its cover :P | 15:06 |
| * Robot101 has never had any screen protector on any 770/N800/N810 and has never had any problems with screen durability, even with it in my bag or pocket almost constantly... | 15:06 | |
| * Jaffa dittos | 15:06 | |
| GeneralAntilles | Robot101, did you use it for 6 months? :P | 15:07 |
| Jaffa | Although I ensure there's never any sharp object which could touch the screen | 15:07 |
| GeneralAntilles | It gets gross, but it wont impact usability. | 15:07 |
| *** kaie has joined #maemo | 15:07 | |
| Robot101 | GeneralAntilles: I saw someone who didn't realise it was there, and was showing me like "omg my screen is fucked" and it was scratched and illegible, then we realised and took it off... | 15:08 |
| Robot101 | Jaffa: right, I have a key <-> device pocket exclusion principle :) | 15:08 |
| Jaffa | :) | 15:08 |
| GeneralAntilles | Meh, mine was definitely scratched, but it didn't impact legibility while the backlight was on. | 15:08 |
| aquatix | Robot101: me too | 15:09 |
| GeneralAntilles | Only stupid or rich people don't. | 15:09 |
| aquatix | the combination is a surefire way to get your device fscked | 15:09 |
| aquatix | problem is, i'm short on pockets ;) | 15:09 |
| aquatix | as i don't want to put things with my phone in one pocket too | 15:10 |
| aquatix | thankfully the n810 has a case | 15:10 |
| Navi | Can maemo mapper plot routes without an internet connection | 15:10 |
| Robot101 | Navi: no it's just a UI for google maps | 15:10 |

| GeneralAntilles | You'll end up removing and reapplying a lot in the process of getting it on dust-free. | 15:24 |

| jeddy3 | damn, this is a sweet thing http://www.boxwave.com/products/batteryadapter/index.htm | 16:24 |
| zedstar | so there really a bug to cause delays in getting a gps fix? | 16:24 |
| tontsa | n810 internal gps? | 16:24 |
| zedstar | yeh n810 internal | 16:25 |
| tontsa | i think it's more like feature than anything | 16:25 |
| *** Tobotras has quit IRC | 16:25 | |
| tontsa | the chip inside just can't do better.. but once you have fix it keeps it very well | 16:25 |
| zedstar | i see....im not used to such a unsensitive receiver | 16:25 |
| zedstar | just got n810 today and no fix | 16:26 |
| tontsa | yeah i was shocked too comparing it to my bt-gps dongles | 16:26 |
| melmoth | can take up to half an hour here | 16:26 |
| tontsa | takes about 5 minutes if there's perfect visibility | 16:26 |
| *** Ivan_Chelubeev has quit IRC | 16:26 | |
| tontsa | not really useful though if you are in hurry and want to find where you are | 16:26 |
| zedstar | btw in software update it lists update to Map application but this install fails? | 16:26 |
| tontsa | you need to uninstall your map or update to the final os2008 | 16:27 |
| tontsa | then you can install the update | 16:27 |
| zedstar | ah ok great thanks..... im running 2.2007.50-2 is that latest? | 16:28 |
| GeneralAntilles | No, but 51-3 is only a bootloader change. | 16:28 |
| tontsa | there that should be fixed.. atleast was for me | 16:28 |
| GeneralAntilles | You can force it with red pill if you want. | 16:28 |
| tontsa | but you can uninstall the map and then get it again | 16:28 |
| *** Sargun has quit IRC | 16:28 | |
| GeneralAntilles | I'd just uninstall and reinstall, though. | 16:28 |
| aquatix | what was changed in the bootloader? | 16:29 |
| tontsa | aquatix, some units didn't wanna power on after a while | 16:29 |
| zedstar | ok so just upgrades to bootloader i can live without | 16:29 |
| aquatix | ah | 16:29 |
| * aquatix reinstalls maps that way too now | 16:29 | |
| GeneralAntilles | Unless you're having issues with powering on, there's no reason to update the bootloader. | 16:29 |
| aquatix | was wondering about it too :) | 16:29 |
| *** NetBlade has quit IRC | 16:29 | |

| aquatix | getting root now on the thing | 16:29 |
| GeneralAntilles | It's just OMAP timing changes to fix the race issue. | 16:30 |
| tontsa | i was hoping the new version fixed some bluetooth issues | 16:30 |
| tontsa | but i guess need to wait bit longer | 16:30 |
| zedstar | not seen red pill?...im used to flashing new updates | 16:30 |

| *** Navi_ is now known as Navi | 16:35 | |

| tontsa | developer mode | 16:36 |
| tontsa | you get to see lots of dev packages in the app manager | 16:36 |
| zedstar | ah ok i want that then | 16:36 |
| aquatix | zedstar: maybe of interest too - http://devnoob.blogspot.com/2008/01/root-access-on-nokia-n810.html | 16:37 |

| tontsa | it reminds me of mda monitors | 16:38 |
| GeneralAntilles | easyroot is the best way to get root. | 16:38 |
| zedstar | ah ok done it i notice a couple of extra things in software update | 16:38 |

| *** jott has quit IRC | 16:38 | |

| tontsa | also you should subscribe to some extra repos, good way to get them is surf with the n810 to http://www.gronmayer.com/it | 16:39 |
| zedstar | the Operating System update is that just bootloader upgrades? | 16:39 |
| zedstar | thanks tontsa | 16:39 |
| GeneralAntilles | No. | 16:39 |
| GeneralAntilles | It's a meta package for other stuff. | 16:39 |
| GeneralAntilles | Don't worry about it and don't install it. | 16:39 |
| zedstar | ok | 16:39 |
| zedstar | root i got easily already by just installing openssh and ssh root@localhost | 16:40 |
| Navi | lol | 16:40 |
| GeneralAntilles | Easy root is easier. ;) | 16:40 |
| aquatix | ah, that's possible too :) | 16:40 |
| GeneralAntilles | "root" | 16:40 |
| hrw | zedstar: http://blog.haerwu.biz/2008/02/22/resolving-power-on-drama/ has instructions how to install only bootloader | 16:40 |
| tontsa | i'm still doing sudo gainroot cause i was lazy to reinstall openssh | 16:40 |
| GeneralAntilles | zedstar, there's no point in installing the bootloader if you don't have the poweron issue. | 16:40 |
| tontsa | the one version early os2008 didn't ask for root password | 16:41 |
| zedstar | thanks hrw | 16:41 |
| aquatix | hm, i have that problem now and then i think | 16:41 |
| zedstar | yeh not gonna update bootloader i dont like touching those | 16:41 |
| aquatix | that power on thing | 16:41 |
| Khertan | tontsa > more a test mode :) | 16:45 |
| *** playya_ has quit IRC | 16:45 | |

| Khertan | oups ... | 16:46 |
| aquatix | zedstar: a bit, yeah | 16:46 |
| aquatix | hrw: that bin, can i download that from nokia? | 16:46 |
| aquatix | or is that the complete flash? | 16:47 |
| hrw | its in flash image | 16:47 |
| hrw | aquatix: grab image, unpack (using flasher), flash needed parts | 16:48 |
| *** mazzen has joined #maemo | 16:48 | |
| aquatix | first comment says ``Actually you don’t need to unpack the image, you can also use flasher –fiasco RX-44_2008SE_2.2007.51-3_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin –flash-only=nolo –flash'' | 16:48 |
| aquatix | so that's nice | 16:48 |

| Screaming | The only kernel modification is to add a field on an internal struct to recall which way round it is and to send the right things to the LCD chip AFAICT. Media-server is simply being crazy, saying "wibble-wibble" for no reason cos it goes wrong even when NOT rotated. | 18:57 |

| doc|work | Navi: of course, open moko's not finished | 22:31 |
| Navi | doc|work, openmoko can never surpass windows mobile. | 22:32 |

| * konttori just put usb control to the repository and added download page in maemo downloads to it | 23:17 | |
| * konttori also put ukmp 174 to repos | 23:17 | |
| konttori | https://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/usbcontrol/ | 23:17 |
| jaska_ | huh, asks for login/pass | 23:20 |
| sp3000 | s/https/http/ | 23:20 |
| doc|work | usb control? | 23:20 |
| jaska_ | yeah, tried that.. worked | 23:20 |
| jaska_ | need to loot a gender-changer somewhere tho | 23:21 |
| sp3000 | This application is also available for: OS2008 | 23:22 |
| * sp3000 slaps downloads | 23:22 | |
| * lcuk hacked one up from an old computer (twin extension from mobo to backslots) | 23:22 | |
| doc|work | hmmm, how does that work, can you get mini-usb to normal usb size adaptors? | 23:22 |
| *** atlas95 has joined #maemo | 23:22 | |
| GeneralAntilles | konttori, there's a statusbar applet that'll switch for you floating around somewhere. | 23:23 |
| *** setanta has quit IRC | 23:23 | |
| jaska_ | lcuk: ahhah.. i probably have some of those floating around... didnt think of it :( | 23:23 |
| konttori | GA for usb host mode you mean? | 23:23 |
| konttori | the one kate made? | 23:23 |
| GeneralAntilles | Yeah. | 23:23 |
| lcuk | doc|work, if you use your nokia USB cable into a gender changer then into your keyboard it can be coerced into working | 23:23 |
| konttori | doc: you just buy one usb F-F adaptor | 23:24 |
| doc|work | ah, ok | 23:24 |
| Navi | or make one | 23:24 |
| konttori | f-f costs less than a euro. | 23:24 |
| konttori | so it's not worth to make one | 23:24 |
| lcuk | but if the shops are closed (as they were when i needed one)... | 23:24 |
| jaska_ | i wonder what other usb ethernet thingies are supported other than rtl8150 | 23:24 |
| Navi | But if you're too lazy to go out,.. | 23:24 |
| Navi | s/,/./ | 23:24 |
| infobot | Navi meant: But if you're too lazy to go out... | 23:24 |
| doc|work | bwahaha | 23:25 |
| konttori | GA: status bar applets are not nice as there is so little space for those on the device. | 23:25 |
| konttori | application is thus better than a applet that's hard to enable / disable | 23:25 |
| konttori | IMHO | 23:25 |
| GeneralAntilles | My taskbar space is smaller than my statusbar space. :P | 23:25 |
| lcuk | its ugly what it does if you have too many | 23:25 |
| lcuk | adjusted theme? | 23:25 |
| konttori | GA. but you cn close usbcontrol aftter you have made the switch | 23:25 |
| GeneralAntilles | Be nice if the drop-down button for the statusbar overflow didn't steal a slow. | 23:26 |
| konttori | you don't have to keep it open | 23:26 |
| Navi | or you could just have a taskbar toggle | 23:26 |
| GeneralAntilles | s/slow/slot/ | 23:26 |
| infobot | GeneralAntilles meant: Be nice if the drop-down button for the statusbar overflow didn't steal a slot. | 23:26 |
| jaska_ | hmmh, guess i'll have to rip out the scrollbar from osso-xterm, doesnt seem to listen to the gconf setting... and didnt notice anything really out of hand in the src (albeit ive never used gtk before) | 23:26 |
| Navi | press the icon to toggle it, that's all you need. | 23:26 |
| jott | just make a volume-brightness-usb-rotation-wireless-battery-clock all-in-one applet :) | 23:26 |
| GeneralAntilles | Woo | 23:26 |
| GeneralAntilles | We'll be down to one applet in no time! | 23:27 |
| Navi | Sweet. | 23:27 |
| * GeneralAntilles starts putting together the 1001 icons it'll need. | 23:27 | |
| jaska_ | bloatlet | 23:27 |
| GeneralAntilles | ~100KB of meat, 6MB of icons. | 23:27 |
| doc|work | rotation? | 23:27 |
| GeneralAntilles | Plus the LCARS theme! | 23:27 |
| GeneralAntilles | So, 12MB of icons. | 23:27 |
| jott | hehe GeneralAntilles ever heared of compositing :P | 23:27 |
| jaska_ | dwim-button | 23:28 |
| GeneralAntilles | doc|work, http://sse2.net/rotate/ | 23:28 |
| GeneralAntilles | Massive icon sets are more exciting. :P | 23:28 |
| lcuk | GeneralAntilles, which nokia did you quickdraw that link from? | 23:28 |
| *** dmz has joined #maemo | 23:28 | |
| * doc|work dribbles a little | 23:28 | |
| GeneralAntilles | What, lcuk? | 23:28 |
| doc|work | doc|home: ^ | 23:28 |
| lcuk | quickfire linkage | 23:29 |
| * GeneralAntilles scrolls up, doesn't get it, stare blankly at lcuk. | 23:30 | |
| GeneralAntilles | The rotation link? | 23:30 |
| dmz | hey y'all, is there any just plain ol' sip clients that have been built for maemo | 23:30 |
| GeneralAntilles | It comes with one built in, dmz. | 23:30 |
| GeneralAntilles | Assuming the rotation link, lcuk, Quicksilver's searchable browser history. | 23:31 |
| doc|work | dmz: rtcomm works and embeds itself into the OS | 23:31 |
| dmz | which one? | 23:31 |
| dmz | hmm (btw i'm on a 770 using hacked os2008 install) | 23:32 |
| doc|work | o.O | 23:32 |
| dmz | do i have to run from xterm or am i just missing it in the menus | 23:32 |
| GeneralAntilles | The Presence applet, dmz. | 23:33 |
| GeneralAntilles | /contacts application/Accounts in Control Panel. . . . | 23:33 |

| dmz | hmm the presence applet i see was for google talk / jabber, didn't see any sip settings | 23:34 |
| GeneralAntilles | Account . . . New Service: SIP | 23:34 |
| jku | GeneralAntilles, that only works after installing rtcomm, right? | 23:35 |
| GeneralAntilles | rtcomm is bundled with OS2008. | 23:35 |
| jku | dmz: http://rtcomm.garage.maemo.org/ | 23:35 |
| jku | oh? | 23:35 |
| GeneralAntilles | Yes. | 23:35 |
| *** leandroal has quit IRC | 23:36 | |
