KotCzarny | monday | 00:19 |
tsukasa_ | anyone heard anything about the n800 doing a price drop? | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | all thye time | 00:19 |
GeneralAntilles | It's not gonna get any lower. | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:19 |
tsukasa_ | :< | 00:20 |
KotCzarny | get them while they're hot! | 00:20 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:20 |
GeneralAntilles | Well, maybe it will if you're not in the US. | 00:20 |
GeneralAntilles | But It wont get any lower in the US. | 00:20 |
lcuk | it might do | 00:21 |
*** maddler has quit IRC | 00:22 | |
*** rektide has joined #maemo | 00:22 | |
GeneralAntilles | Much lower and you hit the "why are we selling these things again?" stage. | 00:22 |
rektide | besides gps and keyboard, is there any advantage to the N800? | 00:22 |
GeneralAntilles | N810, you mean? | 00:23 |
rektide | advantage to the N810 | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | nope | 00:23 |
rektide | yeah pardon | 00:23 |
GeneralAntilles | Transflective display | 00:23 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, ya but its a bit pricey for students still | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | only disadvantages | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | like n800 has 2 sdhs slots | 00:23 |
GeneralAntilles | Everything is pricy for students. | 00:23 |
lcuk | what, like all their phone models ? i can pick up old model nokias which were £3-400 new for peanuts now, still brand new mint in the box | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | so it's ~ 64gb of flash | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:23 |
GeneralAntilles | Your personal budget doesn't determine component costs. ;) | 00:23 |
rektide | yes the dual SDHC are pushing me towards a N800 | 00:23 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, maybe so but they can die shrink | 00:23 |
rektide | also i like bluetooth keyboards more than small integrated ones | 00:23 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, id be willing to bet they arent at 45nm | 00:23 |
GeneralAntilles | tsukasa_, that doesn't change component costs. | 00:24 |
GeneralAntilles | Of course they aren't | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | tsukasa: how about second hand? | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | i got mine for 150$ | 00:24 |
GeneralAntilles | OMAP2 will never be at 45nm | 00:24 |
tsukasa_ | hmm maybe | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | with screen protectors already | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:24 |
GeneralAntilles | That doesn't change the price of all the other parts. | 00:24 |
lcuk | rektide, i have an 810 AND i have a bt keyboard. the 810 thumb board is such a relief to have because there will be somewhere you go that needs a board and you KNOW you wont have an extra one all the time | 00:24 |
GeneralAntilles | The fullscreen keyboard on the N800 is really quite workable. | 00:25 |
lcuk | i agree its workable, but its distracting | 00:25 |
KotCzarny | yup | 00:25 |
lcuk | especially compared to the one just below my screen | 00:25 |
KotCzarny | we need transluent osk | 00:25 |
KotCzarny | then it would rock | 00:25 |
lcuk | get the pvr working and that stops being a problem :) | 00:26 |
KotCzarny | nope | 00:26 |
KotCzarny | 1fps will be enough | 00:26 |
KotCzarny | for that | 00:26 |
*** mk8 has quit IRC | 00:26 | |
lcuk | you say this, but its not - i type at more than 1 fps, you have to update both the screen in the background, then merge with the actual board | 00:26 |
rektide | have we heard any communication about possible use of the PowerVR stuff onboard? | 00:26 |
rektide | i presume its still totally unutilized | 00:27 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: then it should include 'type string' field too | 00:27 |
lcuk | yes, we have heard *ERROR: null pointer* | 00:27 |
KotCzarny | erm. typed string | 00:27 |
rektide | your joke is crude but i think i get the point | 00:27 |
lcuk | but your 1fps wouldnt work, because i have to merge my string with the background | 00:28 |
lcuk | its the blending that kills it: to answer blendtec: no it won't blend. | 00:28 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: have you seen full screen osk mode? | 00:28 |
lcuk | yes i had it on for a while at first | 00:28 |
*** unique311 has quit IRC | 00:28 | |
KotCzarny | then add transluency to it | 00:28 |
lcuk | before i abandoned it because it was flakey | 00:29 |
KotCzarny | that's my point | 00:29 |
KotCzarny | ie. i would like osk that: | 00:29 |
KotCzarny | 1/ full screen | 00:29 |
KotCzarny | 2/ thumb friendly | 00:29 |
KotCzarny | 3/ transluent | 00:30 |
lcuk | but thats the point i am making, to backup a screen full of pixels(desktop) and merge with a screen full of pixels(kb) into the framebuffer takes time | 00:30 |
KotCzarny | 4/ could include 'typed string field' for quick corrections | 00:30 |
KotCzarny | may be refreshed at 30fps | 00:30 |
KotCzarny | and whole background at 1fps | 00:30 |
lcuk | try it yourself with a static image | 00:30 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: i have tried xcompmgr | 00:31 |
KotCzarny | it works | 00:31 |
lcuk | take a screenshot of the standard screen and a screenshot of the keyboard | 00:31 |
lcuk | and use photoshop or whatever | 00:31 |
KotCzarny | slow, but ~10fps | 00:31 |
lcuk | lets see how it looks | 00:31 |
lcuk | does xcomp work then? | 00:31 |
KotCzarny | yes | 00:31 |
KotCzarny | but slow | 00:31 |
KotCzarny | because of lacking pvr drivers | 00:31 |
*** jprieur has joined #maemo | 00:31 | |
KotCzarny | you don't even have to flash or reboot | 00:32 |
*** matt_c has quit IRC | 00:32 | |
KotCzarny | it's runtime tunable | 00:32 |
lcuk | and does it give effect your after? or is it too slow? | 00:32 |
KotCzarny | wanna binary? | 00:32 |
KotCzarny | you will test yourself | 00:32 |
KotCzarny | it only enables windows shadows | 00:33 |
KotCzarny | and probably whole transparency in xomap | 00:33 |
*** luogni_ has quit IRC | 00:33 | |
KotCzarny | but i didn't have anything to test it | 00:33 |
lcuk | hang on, i saw something last night | 00:33 |

KotCzarny | yeah | 00:36 |
KotCzarny | i have seen it | 00:36 |
lcuk | there is an example of clock plugin for maemo desktop | 00:36 |
* lcuk knew this conversation sounded familiar | 00:36 | |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:36 |
rektide | what X does os2008 use? | 00:37 |
KotCzarny | xomap | 00:37 |
oob | question - can the n810 use monitor mode on its wireless interface? | 00:37 |
lcuk | maybe worth a cairo test outside the desktop | 00:37 |
GeneralAntilles | Xomap | 00:37 |
*** kaie has quit IRC | 00:37 | |
rektide | alright, hadnt heard of that one, thanks | 00:38 |
lcuk | oob? monitor mode? you mean display a screen on a monitor or monitor debug output | 00:38 |
KotCzarny | kismet | 00:38 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:38 |
oob | use, monitor mode as in "kismet." monitor mode as opposed to ad-hoc or managed | 00:38 |
GeneralAntilles | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_mode | 00:38 |
lcuk | ahhh ty | 00:39 |
*** krau has quit IRC | 00:40 | |
GeneralAntilles | I wonder how many people actually want to use kismet for valid research or job-related tasks. <_< | 00:40 |
*** shackan has quit IRC | 00:40 | |
GeneralAntilles | Be nice if the WiMAX model could work in master. | 00:40 |
KotCzarny | oob: i guess it's possible | 00:40 |
GeneralAntilles | Make a neat little WiMAX hotspot. | 00:40 |
KotCzarny | because i have seen util to turn off monitor mode | 00:40 |
KotCzarny | without reboot | 00:40 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:40 |
oob | GeneralAntilles, i do. i legitimately want to use other people's internet connections | 00:41 |
oob | KotCzarny, thanks | 00:41 |
KotCzarny | don't know if you won't have to compile another driver for wlan though | 00:41 |
GeneralAntilles | Pfft | 00:42 |
GeneralAntilles | That's never legitimate. | 00:42 |
*** rlaager has quit IRC | 00:42 | |
oob | the "want" is legitimate | 00:42 |
lcuk | yes it is. just because he has to knock the door down to get access doesnt mean its not legitimate | 00:43 |
tsukasa_ | so wimax has nothing to do with wireless n right? the wimax chip is its own thing and doesnt do backwards compat with n/g/etc | 00:43 |
*** krau has joined #maemo | 00:43 | |
KotCzarny | yes | 00:43 |
tsukasa_ | that sucks | 00:43 |
KotCzarny | it's more like gsm | 00:43 |
KotCzarny | than wlan | 00:43 |
tsukasa_ | they making a n version of the n810 i hope | 00:43 |
lcuk | does it roam? | 00:43 |
tsukasa_ | or 800 actually | 00:43 |
GeneralAntilles | tsukasa_, WiMAX is basically cellular data | 00:43 |
lcuk | is can i use it on the train? | 00:43 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: probably | 00:44 |
GeneralAntilles | and/or last-mile data | 00:44 |
lcuk | cool | 00:44 |
GeneralAntilles | Why would they make an N version of an old device? | 00:44 |
KotCzarny | it has range of ~70km | 00:44 |
rektide | and its made of rainbows | 00:44 |
KotCzarny | so it would take some time between roams | 00:44 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, not all of us want gps | 00:44 |
lcuk | _+ built up areas , ymmv | 00:44 |
rektide | we'll see what its actual delivery is | 00:44 |
lcuk | not all of us get it | 00:44 |
GeneralAntilles | tsukasa_, why would they update an OMAP2 device when OMAP3 is coming out? | 00:44 |
tsukasa_ | omap? | 00:45 |
GeneralAntilles | You can't even saturate G with either device. | 00:45 |
rektide | WiMAX is slower than G | 00:45 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, its not about the saturation its about the range | 00:45 |
GeneralAntilles | rektide, I'd hope so. :P | 00:45 |
KotCzarny | G has very short range | 00:45 |
KotCzarny | also | 00:45 |
rektide | they added it because it was easy to add. | 00:45 |
GeneralAntilles | Meh, N range isn't all it's cracked up to be. | 00:45 |
lcuk | wimax connected at ANY speed is better than wifi disconnected. | 00:45 |
KotCzarny | wimax can be fast | 00:45 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, its a hell of a lot better then G | 00:46 |
glass | wimax needs a wimax network | 00:46 |
KotCzarny | G needs | 00:46 |
KotCzarny | G network | 00:46 |
rektide | you'd have to redesign the mobo for OMAP3, adding WiMAX was just throwing on another chip | 00:46 |
glass | who of you lives in covered area? | 00:46 |
glass | umts would be better | 00:46 |
rektide | covered by what? | 00:46 |
glass | covered by wimax | 00:46 |
rektide | yes, yes it would glass. | 00:46 |
KotCzarny | A commonly-held misconception is that WiMAX will deliver 70 Mbit/s over 50 kilometers. In reality, WiMAX can do one or the other \u2014 operating over maximum range (50 km) increases bit error rate and thus must use a lower bitrate. Lowering the range allows a device to operate at higher bitrates. | 00:46 |
glass | with umts, i see no need for wimax | 00:46 |
glass | i'm using umts right now | 00:46 |
GeneralAntilles | Canada | 00:46 |
KotCzarny | so at short ranges it's FASTER than G | 00:47 |
GeneralAntilles | WiMAX is the holy grail up there. | 00:47 |
rektide | the only advantage of wimax is i think you can get infrastructure for public bands. not so with umts / hspda | 00:47 |
GeneralAntilles | glass, I agree. | 00:47 |
*** [pablo]_ has joined #maemo | 00:47 | |
*** shackan has joined #maemo | 00:47 | |
rektide | the G extensions for 108mbps are fairly intercompatible | 00:47 |
KotCzarny | also, G is fairly crowded | 00:48 |
rektide | then again i only use atheros gear so of course they're intercompaitble.... | 00:48 |
KotCzarny | so you won't max out it | 00:48 |
lcuk | LOCALLY yes, but can you take your G out wherever you are? | 00:48 |
KotCzarny | also wimax band will be probably private | 00:49 |
KotCzarny | so you won't have problems with neighbours | 00:49 |
lcuk | This spec is mooted as a 1Gbit/s version of WiMax, | 00:49 |
lcuk | hmmm Manchester ahead of the game :) | 00:50 |

lcuk | x | 00:51 |
oob | but is it worth the price of living in manchester? | 00:51 |
glass | theres a network on the old gsm band here | 00:51 |
lcuk | i admit, thats a terrible drag, but now I am here i might as well make use of it. | 00:51 |
glass | err... nmt | 00:51 |
glass | horribly expensive service with transfer limits and shit | 00:52 |
lcuk | actually, no its not - Manchester is amazing. we started the computer revolution. we have a great uni | 00:52 |
lcuk | we have ermmm chip shops | 00:52 |
lcuk | and drug dealers | 00:52 |
lcuk | ok youre right | 00:52 |
*** MikeL has quit IRC | 00:52 | |
glass | long range, good bw in theory but the cells are so big they get crowded i imagine, so the need for limits | 00:52 |
lcuk | or just use more cells at the higher bandwidth | 00:53 |
lcuk | large range/low density will be great for canada type places | 00:53 |
lcuk | short range high density will be good for city centre | 00:53 |
tsukasa_ | lcuk, canada type places... you mean the middle of nowhere? ;) | 00:54 |
lcuk | well, you are somewhere but its a long walk into town | 00:54 |

GeneralAntilles | WiMAX doesn't have a spectrum. | 00:57 |
rektide | my biggest interest will be ltanecy | 00:57 |
tsukasa_ | anyone else feel like nokia is just making shit up as they go? | 00:58 |
rektide | if wimax has better latency than HSDPA that'll be sweet | 00:58 |

rektide | they also currently have no competition | 00:58 |
tsukasa_ | rektide, yeah they do | 00:58 |
lcuk | eeny meeny miny mo, which color shall we go | 00:58 |
tsukasa_ | sandy bridge '10 | 00:58 |

KotCzarny | spray paint is unhealthy | 00:59 |

GeneralAntilles | as they aren't trying to sell their stuff to OEMs and developers. | 00:59 |

tsukasa_ | rektide, range | 01:00 |
GeneralAntilles | but I'm not privy to any privalaged information. | 01:00 |
rektide | what you need is a bluetooth wifi-N adapter. :) | 01:01 |
lcuk | and the fact that all mobile phone operators are setting up to supply worldwide wimax | 01:01 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, is the leap from n810 to the next iteration a substantial improvement eg 790 to 800 | 01:01 |
GeneralAntilles | You'd know them too if you'd been involved with the community as long as I've been. | 01:01 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, or is it like more of the same | 01:01 |

GeneralAntilles | There's no such thing as a "790" | 01:02 |
tsukasa_ | 780* | 01:02 |
lcuk | 770* | 01:02 |
rektide | try 770 | 01:02 |
KotCzarny | ..yet | 01:02 |
tsukasa_ | thank you | 01:02 |
lcuk | :) np | 01:02 |
KotCzarny | nokia has weird policy on device numbering | 01:02 |
GeneralAntilles | Bigger, is my guess. | 01:02 |
tsukasa_ | not as weird as say microsoft | 01:02 |
KotCzarny | so we may yet see N123 | 01:02 |
GeneralAntilles | OMAP3 is some hot shit. | 01:02 |
KotCzarny | for example | 01:02 |
rektide | OMAP3 is pretty sweet. | 01:02 |
glass | KotCzarny: numbering is just marketing.. | 01:02 |
tsukasa_ | xbox 360... what happened to the other 358 models | 01:02 |
glass | KotCzarny: others have just as weird | 01:02 |
tsukasa_ | thrown out? ;) | 01:03 |
KotCzarny | one expects the higher the better | 01:03 |
GeneralAntilles | They burnt up in a fire when their power supplies lit up. | 01:03 |
tsukasa_ | haha +1 | 01:03 |
rektide | i want to see what Freescale kicks out of their next ARM line. TI keeps licensing PowerVR, Freescale's gone the ATI Mobility route. | 01:03 |
glass | KotCzarny: nokia naming conventions arent at least as fucked up as motos | 01:03 |
KotCzarny | yeah | 01:03 |
GeneralAntilles | Nokia at least sticks with numbers. | 01:03 |
KotCzarny | Wjfr73mcde | 01:03 |
glass | KotCzarny: n and e series are at least symbian, apart from putting n800/n810 in nseries naming too | 01:04 |
lcuk | kot thats not as good as the Wjfr73mcdf | 01:04 |
KotCzarny | symbian? | 01:04 |
Paavo | Nokia TBLT! | 01:04 |

KotCzarny | T-BLT! | 01:04 |
glass | then again they got symbian phones, very recent, that are in the just numbers ranger | 01:04 |
lcuk | Nokia N series T-BLT '08 :) | 01:05 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, yeah, i just feel like, nokia is going to announce a very sexy next-gen model which will make the 800 old news | 01:05 |
rektide | is the N810 any bigger than the N800? | 01:05 |
glass | and reusing old numbers with 'classic' or 'navigator', thats the biggest suck in nokia naming | 01:05 |
lcuk | open or closed? | 01:05 |
GeneralAntilles | tsukasa_, do some research on the OMAP3430 | 01:05 |
rektide | well, theres really not much further to take the OMAP2. | 01:05 |
rektide | the next release will almost certainly be an OMAP3 | 01:05 |
GeneralAntilles | rektide, it's smaller but heavier. | 01:05 |
*** corq-FL has quit IRC | 01:05 | |

lcuk | yes, the coolness density has increased :) | 01:06 |

GeneralAntilles | depending on your point of view. | 01:06 |
rektide | i would've thoght the keyboard had made it considerably thicker | 01:06 |
GeneralAntilles | Thinner, actually. | 01:06 |
glass | Paavo: if people werent using them still... but they are :) | 01:06 |
Paavo | besides, they were running out of numbers really | 01:06 |
GeneralAntilles | That's part of the reason we lost the twin cardslots. | 01:06 |
lcuk | rek, reshaping means the camera popout gone - its all square now | 01:06 |
lcuk | the 800 had a fat bit | 01:06 |
GeneralAntilles | The N810 is really packed in there. | 01:06 |
glass | Paavo: i'd rather have them put the s40 in some other naming range and s60's in one | 01:06 |
lcuk | a big bum | 01:06 |
rektide | damnit now i'm conflicked | 01:06 |
KotCzarny | square camera takes square photos? | 01:06 |
KotCzarny | :) | 01:07 |
GeneralAntilles | I'd get the N800, personally. | 01:07 |
lcuk | snowy square photos | 01:07 |
rektide | how do the cameras compare N800 v. N810? | 01:07 |
rektide | the dual SD are very very tempting | 01:07 |
GeneralAntilles | The price hike with the N810 isn't worth it to me. | 01:07 |

Paavo | ah yes, 1st of april. must remember that. | 01:07 |
GeneralAntilles | The N800's can move around, though. | 01:07 |
tsukasa_ | TI processors... meh. | 01:07 |
rektide | fuck micro-sd | 01:07 |
tsukasa_ | they should stick VIAs new processor in it | 01:07 |
lcuk | paavo? not yet and you must know the models | 01:07 |
KotCzarny | n820 should include a flash | 01:07 |
GeneralAntilles | Screw that shit | 01:07 |
rektide | there are better ARM than TI's OMAP. | 01:07 |
GeneralAntilles | TI's the best in the range. | 01:07 |
KotCzarny | ie. photo flash | 01:07 |
Paavo | lcuk: it is in my timezone | 01:07 |
tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, have you read about VIAs new chip? | 01:07 |
GeneralAntilles | Yes | 01:08 |
tsukasa_ | so why do you think TI is better? | 01:08 |
GeneralAntilles | Mobile x86 does not impress me. | 01:08 |
rektide | Marvell's new ARM >> OMAP but more power hungry. I like Freescale best for mobile but its pretyt on par with TI. | 01:08 |
lcuk | paavo :) not for another hour here | 01:08 |
rektide | Mobile x86 is a terrible idea | 01:08 |
lcuk | eugh | 01:08 |
KotCzarny | ah, relativity | 01:08 |
GeneralAntilles | tsukasa_, simply put, because they are. ;) | 01:08 |

rektide | someday tsukasa. thast the dream. | 01:09 |
KotCzarny | usability is different | 01:09 |
lcuk | my 810 is a small laptop | 01:09 |
rektide | lcuk: nintendo DS is multicore. | 01:09 |
GeneralAntilles | Power consumption is a very important part of what makes the NITs work. | 01:09 |

tsukasa_ | GeneralAntilles, i dont know about that, Intels Atom processor takes what? 3W? | 01:10 |
rektide | the only thing holding ARM back right now is the display subsystems | 01:10 |
rektide | and thats about to change | 01:10 |
GeneralAntilles | TI's talking 2009 for dual-core A9s | 01:10 |
GeneralAntilles | Lot more than the OMAP SoCs. | 01:10 |
rektide | ARM would make a fine computer, but the best output you'll get is 1280x1024 with shite performance. | 01:10 |
rektide | upgrade the graphics side of ARM and ARM will make awsome portable computers | 01:10 |
Paavo | how much power did they get out of those nuclear batteries anyway? that would provide a decent battery life. | 01:10 |

rektide | AMD/ATI and PowerVR have licensed out some pretty nice OpenGL 2.0 silicon IP, | 01:12 |
glass | rektide: i seem to remember that there were some | 01:12 |
GeneralAntilles | OMAP3'll put all of our graphics issues to bed. | 01:12 |
rektide | the only real question is if there will be enough bandwidth to power 1920x1200. | 01:12 |
rektide | ;) | 01:12 |
rektide | Omap3 went PowerVR again, right? | 01:12 |
GeneralAntilles | Yeah | 01:12 |
* KotCzarny shrugs | 01:12 | |
jott | GeneralAntilles: omap3 + crappy lcd controller - we know our NIT engineers :P | 01:13 |
GeneralAntilles | Why would they? | 01:13 |
GeneralAntilles | The built-in controller supports 800x480 just fine | 01:13 |
rektide | jott is too right, even if i dont know who NIT is | 01:13 |

rektide | glass: but the resolution is low enough to make that easy. | 01:13 |
GeneralAntilles | Never heard of it, rektide. | 01:14 |
KotCzarny | glass: n95 has the SAME pvr chip as n8x0 | 01:14 |
KotCzarny | the only difference is support | 01:14 |
KotCzarny | :/ | 01:14 |
rektide | most of the Fujitsu P1000 laptops run 1024x600. Mine's an 800 mhz crusoe, 8.9" touchscreen. | 01:14 |

rektide | they use LLVM to optimize the fuck out of software opengl | 01:19 |
rektide | yes | 01:19 |
KotCzarny | yeah, software is the other 50% of good device | 01:19 |
rektide | but most of the speed comes from the compiler tricks they use to accelerate opengl | 01:20 |
rektide | its very very intelligent | 01:20 |
rektide | but again, all the next gen solutions are going ot have onboard silicon dedicated to opengl | 01:20 |

rektide | thats definitely not opengl2.0 compliant. it can accelerate some 3d calculations, but its way way way way short of a full 3d pipeline | 01:21 |
glass | opengl es is common | 01:21 |
rektide | yes but its usually just done in software on the CPU, sometimes with a coprocessor to accelerate some 3d math. | 01:21 |
glass | it's usually fully sw | 01:22 |
rektide | and thats whats changing | 01:22 |
KotCzarny | transparency acceleration will be enough for shiny factor | 01:22 |
KotCzarny | :) | 01:22 |
rektide | the one thing that makes me sad is that the OpenGL ES libraries to accelerate SVG are either crazy expensive or really primitive. we need better vector art acceleration too. | 01:23 |

GeneralAntilles | quad-cores are just like dual-cores | 02:03 |
rektide | yeah i was pretty sure there was an old dual core with two dies | 02:04 |
GeneralAntilles | dual dual-cores are what you mean. | 02:04 |
*** rev has joined #maemo | 02:04 | |
rektide | dual dual-cores == two dual cores | 02:05 |
rektide | same deal | 02:05 |
rektide | Navi, can you profer any kind of comparison between the GP2X and the N8x0? | 02:05 |
glass | some nokia phones have dual cpu but the other is just for network stack and shit | 02:07 |
Navi | One's a gaming machine and one's an internet tablet | 02:07 |
rektide | what of form factor? | 02:08 |
KotCzarny | omap is dual core too | 02:08 |
KotCzarny | :> | 02:08 |
rektide | i think i forgot that Kot | 02:08 |
KotCzarny | but cores are little different | 02:08 |
KotCzarny | dsp one is specialized | 02:08 |
rektide | they're asymetric on the GP2X as well | 02:08 |
rektide | and the Nintendo DS | 02:08 |
rektide | i cant think of any ARM with symetric dual core | 02:08 |

*** ol_schoola has quit IRC | 03:14 | |
blahdeblah-lap | Navi: Kagu is my current choice on maemo because it supports last.fm scrobbling, but the interface is terrible and it has some annoying bugs (like restarting playback when you add songs to the now playing list, and maximising the volume for a split second when you unpause it). | 03:15 |

blahdeblah-lap | KotCzarny: on maemo? | 03:20 |
KotCzarny | yup | 03:20 |
blahdeblah-lap | Does it scrobble? | 03:20 |
KotCzarny | scrobble? | 03:20 |
blahdeblah-lap | last.fm | 03:20 |
blahdeblah-lap | If you're not an addict, you won't understand. | 03:20 |
KotCzarny | probably | 03:21 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:21 |
Jiten | what? you can'y scrobble if you aren't addicted to it somehow? | 03:21 |
KotCzarny | ie. 'probably i'm not an addict' | 03:21 |
KotCzarny | but there is xmms-ctrl | 03:22 |
KotCzarny | so writing a script to do it shouldn't be too hard | 03:22 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:22 |
lcdd | i had to ditch xmms because audioscrobble plugin tends to crash it | 03:22 |
blahdeblah-lap | Jiten: No, but scrobbling is mandatory for a music play for me now | 03:22 |
blahdeblah-lap | lcdd: Disappointing to hear. | 03:22 |
KotCzarny | blah: how exactly it works? | 03:23 |
KotCzarny | simple 'get track name, save it somewhere' ? | 03:23 |
lcdd | audacious works almost as a drop-in replacement, though. and as a extra it supports evdev events from my tv remote | 03:23 |
blahdeblah-lap | KotCzarny: You submit your tracks to their web site, then you can view stats, similar artists, join groups, etc. | 03:23 |
KotCzarny | with or without user interaction? | 03:23 |
KotCzarny | hum | 03:23 |
blahdeblah-lap | you submit tracks without user interaction | 03:23 |
blahdeblah-lap | Your music player does it for you | 03:23 |
KotCzarny | i think it's doable in a python | 03:24 |
KotCzarny | or even in bash | 03:24 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:24 |
KotCzarny | using xmms-control | 03:24 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:24 |
lcdd | yeah, shouldn't be too hard | 03:24 |
KotCzarny | in fact writing standalone scrobbler would be even better | 03:24 |
KotCzarny | that will interact with any player | 03:24 |
KotCzarny | http://code.google.com/p/pyscrobble/ | 03:26 |
KotCzarny | hehe | 03:26 |

nwidger_ | what's the easiest way to play a wav/mp3 file in a maemo app? like what libraries or whatever to use? | 03:38 |
KotCzarny | gstreamer ? | 03:38 |
nwidger_ | KotCzarny: cool... i just want a hardcoded sound file to play when i press a gtkbutton | 03:39 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 03:39 |
nwidger_ | so the simplest solution would probably be the best | 03:39 |
KotCzarny | esdplay ? | 03:40 |
KotCzarny | mplayer ? | 03:40 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:40 |
nwidger_ | hmm | 03:40 |
KotCzarny | maybe there's framework for sound too | 03:40 |
KotCzarny | in hildon | 03:40 |
nwidger_ | maybe | 03:40 |
nwidger_ | the tutorials dont mentions it anywhere | 03:40 |
KotCzarny | but i think gstreamer will be easy | 03:40 |
nwidger_ | cool | 03:40 |
nwidger_ | ill give it a shot | 03:40 |
KotCzarny | you don't want to control the play? | 03:41 |
KotCzarny | just 'fire and forget' ? | 03:41 |
nwidger_ | yeah | 03:41 |
nwidger_ | well here's my app: | 03:41 |
KotCzarny | ok, gstreamer then | 03:41 |
nwidger_ | i drum on the table a lot | 03:41 |
nwidger_ | using my fingers | 03:41 |
nwidger_ | so i want to do the same on the tablet | 03:41 |
KotCzarny | btw. check out pyano | 03:41 |
nwidger_ | but each finger would make a different sound play each time i hit it | 03:41 |
KotCzarny | it's a simple piano emulator | 03:42 |
nwidger_ | like snare, bass, cymbol, etc | 03:42 |
KotCzarny | to play with thumbs | 03:42 |
KotCzarny | and using samples | 03:42 |
nwidger_ | yeah basically | 03:42 |
nwidger_ | but like a drumset | 03:42 |
KotCzarny | just a different sample set | 03:42 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:42 |
nwidger_ | yes :) | 03:42 |
lcuk | and variable circular drum layout and sizing :) | 03:42 |
KotCzarny | you may try some midi interaction too | 03:42 |
KotCzarny | with timidity | 03:42 |

WorkingOnWise | if I install KDE on my tablet, is there some way to switch between KDE and the default DE on an N800? | 03:44 |
nwidger_ | KotCzarny: no but i can learn it | 03:44 |
nwidger_ | i've been using c and gtk | 03:44 |
*** pupnik has quit IRC | 03:44 | |
lcuk | get hold of a program called maemopad+ and there is a pressure option | 03:44 |
KotCzarny | nwidger: it's very simple to write pygtk apps | 03:44 |
KotCzarny | if you know gtk already | 03:44 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:44 |
nwidger_ | lcuk: sure, ill check it out | 03:44 |
lcuk | there are lots of examples around and you can perform easy actions on single button press | 03:45 |
lcuk | and because you dont have to compile it, you can edit directly on 810 and play and make better | 03:45 |
nwidger_ | i thought it would be cool if there was a configuration option to position different buttons on the screen each with its own sample, so that it would work best with your left/right-handedness and finger size | 03:45 |
KotCzarny | gtk supports dragging buttons too | 03:45 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 03:45 |
lcuk | there is another program called PyGTKEditor which lets you edit and test python applications on maemo :) | 03:45 |
nwidger_ | neat | 03:46 |
Zetx| | What are the chances it's not a hardware issue if I've reflashed twice and my touchscreen still has the same problem? :| | 03:46 |

*** blahdeblah-lap has quit IRC | 03:46 | |
Zetx| | oh, it's not that | 03:46 |
Navi | Zetx|, someone else complains about that problem in a different channel | 03:47 |
KotCzarny | btw. what is the problem? | 03:47 |
Zetx| | it's my touchscreen, sometimes when i tap around the middle of my screen it thinks i'm tapping at the left side (it hits the application menu) | 03:47 |
KotCzarny | ah, yes | 03:47 |
KotCzarny | known problem | 03:47 |
nwidger_ | lcuk: the only down side is that the screen can't register multiple touches at the same time i'm guessing, so no bass+cymbal crashes :( | 03:47 |
Zetx| | and i've tried calibrating | 03:47 |
Zetx| | ah | 03:47 |
Zetx| | :\ | 03:47 |
KotCzarny | my guess it's just bad software | 03:47 |
Zetx| | it's just a difficult thing to search on 'touchscreen' is gonna get alot of hits ;p | 03:47 |
KotCzarny | that doesn't filter out those bad data | 03:47 |
lcuk | nwidger_, i dont think its as bad as you think | 03:47 |
Zetx| | i guess i'll try a different firmware then | 03:48 |
nwidger_ | lcuk: the screen has multitouch capabilities? | 03:48 |
KotCzarny | zetx, no | 03:48 |
KotCzarny | it's not solved | 03:48 |
lcuk | no | 03:48 |
KotCzarny | even with latest | 03:48 |
Zetx| | oh | 03:48 |
Zetx| | yeah | 03:48 |
Zetx| | so -everybody- has that issue? :| | 03:49 |
KotCzarny | but you can resolve it a littly by dragging menu to the right part of the screen | 03:49 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 03:49 |
lcuk | Zetx|, return to nokia, that sounds like a busted screen - ive seen it happen to many nintendo DSs cos they get lots of abuse, with nokias similar fault is plausable though they are generally better treated | 03:49 |
KotCzarny | *little | 03:49 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: but it's intermittent | 03:50 |
KotCzarny | most of the time taps are correct | 03:50 |
lcuk | if your screen is touching where you arent thats because either something is trapped under the left hand side of screen | 03:50 |
Zetx| | KotCzarny, do you have a link to the issue? like a filed bug or something? | 03:50 |
KotCzarny | only sometimes they go with x=0 | 03:50 |
KotCzarny | zetx: nope | 03:50 |
lcuk | i had a whole discussion about this with a guy fairly recently i got test screenshots and everything | 03:50 |

lcuk | once it does it occurs more | 03:52 |
nwidger_ | lcuk: but if i touch the screen in two places at the same time, it will only register one of them, correct? | 03:52 |
Zetx| | to me, it feels like if i angle the stylus some more, it does it more often, but that might just be me | 03:52 |
lcuk | yes nw | 03:53 |
GeneralAntilles | nwidger_, it registers an average of the two. | 03:53 |
lcuk | check for bits caught under the lip | 03:53 |
nwidger_ | GeneralAntilles: like, the average of the two coordinates? | 03:53 |
lcuk | yes | 03:53 |

lcdd | KotCzarny: that is awesome. i'm left-handed and the menu has been bugging me. where do i poke to drag it? | 03:54 |

lcuk | nwidger_, in this case, they do - it is written in python. this is a parsed language and is not compiled | 04:04 |
nwidger_ | oh shit yeah | 04:04 |
nwidger_ | im an idiot | 04:04 |
lcuk | not at all :) you are a person on a journey :) | 04:04 |
nwidger_ | it's all about the journey | 04:04 |

KotCzarny | i have mine packaged into cramfs ;) | 04:06 |
nwidger_ | i thought .deb files where gzip'd | 04:06 |
KotCzarny | nwidger: inside | 04:06 |
KotCzarny | .deb is an ar archive | 04:06 |

*** harryLi is now known as kcome | 04:07 | |
nwidger_ | ya | 04:08 |
nwidger_ | well it shouldnt be that hard | 04:08 |
KotCzarny | but maybe i should go strainght to 3.x | 04:08 |
nwidger_ | i knew the trickiest part would be playing sound | 04:08 |
KotCzarny | hum | 04:08 |
KotCzarny | nwidger: you can use mplayer in -slave mode too | 04:08 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 04:08 |
KotCzarny | then just popen and send commands | 04:08 |
nwidger_ | hmmm | 04:09 |
nwidger_ | ill keep that in mind | 04:09 |
KotCzarny | but the best way would be to compile timidity | 04:09 |
KotCzarny | and start it in server mode | 04:09 |
KotCzarny | then it's just midi | 04:09 |
nwidger_ | cool | 04:09 |

KotCzarny | and a little bit of timex | 04:13 |
KotCzarny | :> | 04:13 |
lcuk | amiga ruled :) this nokia reminds me so much of it - with its custom chipset - the cpu, the dsp and the pvr (when online..) it will rock | 04:13 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: btw. have you considered how pvr will effect battery life? | 04:13 |
*** Zetx| is now known as Zetx | 04:13 | |
KotCzarny | arm can power down parts of the chip | 04:14 |
nwidger_ | pvr? | 04:14 |
KotCzarny | powervr | 04:14 |
KotCzarny | 3d chip | 04:14 |
lcuk | i dont care about battery - if i have to keep it plugged in i will | 04:14 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:14 |
KotCzarny | yeah | 04:14 |
lcuk | i doubt it will be any worse than running the dsp at same time | 04:14 |
KotCzarny | dsp will run too | 04:14 |
nwidger_ | does the n810 have a pvr chip? | 04:15 |
lcuk | i could quite happily live in silece on the desktop so that its crisp | 04:15 |
lcuk | yes and we can't use it at the moment because we have no driver | 04:15 |
nwidger_ | :( | 04:15 |
*** corq-FL has joined #maemo | 04:15 | |
lcuk | its a long and drawn out thing and it pisses me off no end and i so wanna use it cos the amount of dreamy effects we could do would be amazing | 04:15 |
* lcuk stomps to his room | 04:16 | |
nwidger_ | lcuk: try not to wet yourself | 04:16 |
lcuk | :) i dont it just riles me occasionally | 04:16 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:17 |
myren | i cant tell whether nokia is just too cheap to license pvr, too lazy to build a driver, too concerned about how to do open source for the driver | 04:17 |
monkeyiq | anyone else here use WPA2 with their n810? | 04:18 |
* KotCzarny uses WEP | 04:18 | |
GeneralAntilles | I'm sure the result of the cost benefit analysis was bad. | 04:18 |
lcuk | or whether there is a technical reason why its use has not been sanctioned? | 04:18 |
GeneralAntilles | It wont be able to do fast graphics at full resolution. | 04:18 |
lcuk | i wonder if its the fear of ngage software piracy? | 04:18 |
GeneralAntilles | There could also be complicated technical issues. | 04:19 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, no way. | 04:19 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: there was one thread that nokia said 'the chip won't benefit us' | 04:19 |
lcuk | why not, its compatible hardware | 04:19 |
KotCzarny | because of lack of vram | 04:19 |
myren | ahhhh right forgot that | 04:19 |
monkeyiq | KotCzarny; hmm, can you get >0.5Mb/sec download over WEP? | 04:19 |
lcuk | no, dont forget that - its VERY easy to give the lcd any resolution it wants | 04:19 |
KotCzarny | monkeyiq: mbit or MB ? | 04:20 |
lcuk | we can supply the lcd correctly at (for instance) 400*240 and it will display it at fullscreen | 04:20 |
KotCzarny | let me test | 04:20 |
monkeyiq | megabyte | 04:20 |
lcuk | the same occurs on any resolution | 04:20 |
monkeyiq | I get about that even downloading from a local http:// with wget | 04:20 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, sure, but that's suboptimal. | 04:20 |
monkeyiq | I suspect that WPA2 just kills the CPU, as its at 100% getting 500kbyte/s | 04:20 |
GeneralAntilles | I get 800KB/sec over WPA2 and scp/sftp | 04:21 |
lcuk | suboptimal my arse - if we can get fancy graphics at any resolution JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT then we shouldnt try? | 04:21 |
GeneralAntilles | <_< | 04:21 |
GeneralAntilles | I'm merely arguing Nokia's point of view. | 04:21 |
monkeyiq | GeneralAntilles; Ah ok, so maybe I should look at my AP etc. scp/wget both give me about 500kb/s | 04:21 |
KotCzarny | monkeyiq: i get 315kb/s | 04:22 |
KotCzarny | using 11mbit | 04:22 |
lcuk | if nokia wanted optimal we would see movies at full res | 04:22 |
monkeyiq | I get about 1mb/sec scp from localhost to localhost on the n810 | 04:22 |
lcuk | but they are shown at reduced res and people genenrally dont complain | 04:22 |
lcuk | same with games | 04:22 |
GeneralAntilles | Movies are a bit different from games. | 04:22 |
monkeyiq | KotCzarny; ah ok. so my 500kb/sec is not sounding quite so bad. | 04:22 |
KotCzarny | probably | 04:22 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:22 |
nwidger_ | pyano is good, but it's not fast enough | 04:23 |
monkeyiq | but still, viewing 4-5mb digital pix over NFS is very annoying. If I could get closer to 2mb/sec then it would be quite a nice image tablet | 04:23 |
KotCzarny | monkeyiq: vnc? | 04:23 |
nwidger_ | if you alternate keys too fast, it doesnt play all the hits | 04:23 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 04:23 |
monkeyiq | or I could prescale the images at the server end, but I'd like to reserve that option for later | 04:23 |
monkeyiq | KotCzarny; heh, interesting idea, not quite as crazy as it sounds at first. | 04:24 |
monkeyiq | use the server to do the load/scale and only send the screen down the pipe | 04:24 |
*** blassey has quit IRC | 04:24 | |

KotCzarny | :) | 04:24 |
lcuk | lol | 04:24 |
lcuk | im just thinkin | 04:24 |
monkeyiq | I might also try using no WEP/WPA2 and using tinc/openvnc or ssh tunneling to see if I can get better speed | 04:25 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 04:25 |
KotCzarny | otoh i should try this test from another comp | 04:25 |
monkeyiq | since the n810 can to 1mb/s on loopback and it has to enc/dec I might get closer to 2mb/s over ssh on no WEP/WPA | 04:25 |
KotCzarny | it was wifi--router--wifi | 04:25 |
lcuk | what res images are you testing with monkeyiq | 04:25 |
monkeyiq | lcdd; 10mpx | 04:25 |
monkeyiq | err, lcuk that is | 04:25 |
lcuk | will always end up with MUCH more data then - vnc showing fullscreen will be much less | 04:26 |
KotCzarny | especially with jpeg encoding | 04:26 |
KotCzarny | :> | 04:26 |
monkeyiq | I was just hoping that with 2mb/s it would take about 2 sec to xfer and it would be usable with prefetching. | 04:26 |
monkeyiq | given that canola can handle these images resonalby well from sdcards | 04:26 |
lcuk | what are you using to copy? | 04:26 |
monkeyiq | NFS | 04:27 |
monkeyiq | but for bandwidth tests, scp | 04:27 |
monkeyiq | or wget | 04:27 |
monkeyiq | both give 500kb/s which is fishy given that scp has to do more CPU stuff (the whole WPA2 and ssh crypto combination) | 04:28 |
lcuk | you could try and see if they are progressive | 04:28 |
monkeyiq | so I think WPA2 is limiting bandwidth for all to < 500k/s | 04:28 |
KotCzarny | i confirm | 04:28 |
lcuk | at least you would get the preview quicker | 04:28 |
KotCzarny | sucking off eth--wlan it's 450-500 | 04:28 |
KotCzarny | (http) | 04:28 |
*** nwidger_ has quit IRC | 04:28 | |
monkeyiq | I haven't tested what I can get without WEP/WPA2 to see what the wifi is absolutely limited to | 04:28 |
KotCzarny | and cpu usage is ~50% on tablet | 04:28 |
lcuk | ie, dont read after copying - try to load images direct - if they are progressive and your preview can show them - you will get images quicker on screen | 04:29 |
KotCzarny | so it's not an bottleneck | 04:29 |
monkeyiq | lcuk; yeah, though for that I don't mind having a daemon to thumb things for me. | 04:29 |
KotCzarny | php based server | 04:29 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:29 |
lcuk | fair enough | 04:29 |

monkeyiq | KotCzarny; interesting, CPU is at 100% for me on the n810 during copy | 04:30 |
lcuk | yer, should be tiny files | 04:30 |
KotCzarny | i use wep | 04:30 |
monkeyiq | ah ok :) | 04:30 |

KotCzarny | for the situations like this :) | 04:33 |
monkeyiq | hehe, a single google hit! | 04:33 |
KotCzarny | yup | 04:33 |
KotCzarny | it's on the net since yesterday | 04:33 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:34 |
KotCzarny | and i have to rewrite it properly in c ;) | 04:34 |
monkeyiq | I've been brewing a few debs for the n810 myself... parted is quite handy :) | 04:34 |
monkeyiq | BTW is there a kernel for the n810 that has kernel modules packaged too, like luks, fuse, xfs etc? | 04:34 |
monkeyiq | unfortunately the kernel compile also crashes qemu on fedora8 scratchbox :/ | 04:35 |
KotCzarny | you can get kernel source and make modules yourself | 04:35 |
monkeyiq | So i might end up trying scbox on ubuntu in a vm | 04:35 |
monkeyiq | I was just hoping that some main repo existed to avoid having everyone recompile the kernel. | 04:35 |
KotCzarny | for luks and fuse there are packages i guess | 04:35 |
KotCzarny | user compiled | 04:36 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:36 |
monkeyiq | ah ok. I saw a luks tar.gz of modules and kernel but the only fuse stuff I found was for the 770 | 04:36 |
KotCzarny | i can give you fuse-sshfs package | 04:36 |
* monkeyiq is a filesystems kind of guy, just in case you didn't pick up on it :) | 04:36 | |
KotCzarny | if you want | 04:36 |

KotCzarny | more like tar.gz | 04:37 |
KotCzarny | than .deb | 04:37 |
monkeyiq | cool. I'll take a look. I might also get the fuse automounter filesystem happening. | 04:37 |
monkeyiq | though a tray icon with mount/umount options would also be quite handy. | 04:38 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:38 |
*** Masca has quit IRC | 04:38 | |

KotCzarny | one note about xmms, mad plugin is a must | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | builtin mp3 decoder will suck 100% cpu | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | mad gets away with 15% | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:42 |
monkeyiq | ah ok. nice tip. I mostly have ogg/flac, but do have the odd mp3 (haven't actually played an mp3 on the 810 yet) | 04:43 |
monkeyiq | though also I need to work out how to integrate Luks into maemo. with nice login/password dialogs and such | 04:45 |
KotCzarny | python? | 04:45 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:45 |
KotCzarny | pygtk to be exact | 04:45 |
*** Pio has joined #maemo | 04:45 | |
monkeyiq | having tainted a 810 bootup once, I'm not too happy about testing such dialogs in the boot process on a device | 04:45 |
KotCzarny | fun | 04:46 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:46 |
monkeyiq | well, the dialog itself I might just make using the gtk2 C api. its more the hookup logistics and getting luks to do the right thing, like flushing a fs key on device lock etc. | 04:46 |
KotCzarny | i hated when my slackware rc.S tried to mount -a my sshfs shares | 04:46 |
monkeyiq | I'll get bacula onto the 810 soon so I don't live in a digital wasteland on it anymore :) | 04:46 |
KotCzarny | adding nosshfs helped ;) | 04:47 |
monkeyiq | yeah, that would kind of suck :) | 04:47 |
*** crashanddie has quit IRC | 04:50 | |
monkeyiq | KotCzarny; what linux distro is your sbox installed on? so I can install that in a vm for my custom kernel compiles. (and get xalanc and xqilla to compile without crashing qemu) | 04:51 |
KotCzarny | slackware | 04:51 |
KotCzarny | debian would work too | 04:52 |
monkeyiq | ok thanks :) I was hoping to find a post somewhere about what fedora does to angry up sbox so much, but the only ones I found don't help with the kernel | 04:52 |
KotCzarny | redhat has a bad fame | 04:52 |
KotCzarny | about custom untested patches ;) | 04:52 |
monkeyiq | I might try a vanilla linux kernel on the fedora vmachine that runs sbox to see if that helps | 04:52 |
monkeyiq | I suspect its either the fed kernel or its glibc, hopefully its not the later :/ | 04:53 |
KotCzarny | it's not that bad i think | 04:54 |
monkeyiq | yeah, I might move away to debian at some stage, but I don't switch lightly. | 04:54 |
KotCzarny | install debian on vmware? | 04:54 |
KotCzarny | :> | 04:54 |
monkeyiq | yeah, that is the other option. I already have an ubuntu vm, so just clone that and install sbox on the clone | 04:54 |
monkeyiq | I might end up just using sbox on the ubuntu vm if fedora is going to give me these issues, as that vmachine is just for sbox anyway | 04:55 |
KotCzarny | there's a vmware image anyway | 04:55 |
KotCzarny | ready to consume | 04:55 |
KotCzarny | have you tried it? | 04:56 |
monkeyiq | nup. But installing sbox on a clone isn't hard and will be less bandwidth than downloading a whole vm | 04:56 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:56 |
monkeyiq | but I'll keep that as a final, last resort :) | 04:56 |
KotCzarny | it's still few hundred mbs | 04:56 |
KotCzarny | for the sb/sdk/update | 04:57 |
monkeyiq | and then brew off a tarball with shitloads of kernel modules. :) | 04:57 |
KotCzarny | not that much | 04:57 |
KotCzarny | really | 04:57 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:57 |
KotCzarny | most of the kernel branches are cut off | 04:57 |
KotCzarny | s/much/many/ | 04:58 |
monkeyiq | though I did notice a few nice treats when I poked around in menuconfig for the kernel. | 04:58 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:58 |
KotCzarny | don't forget about randr patch | 04:59 |
monkeyiq | also getting many of the funkier network modules will make for interesting games to play | 04:59 |

KotCzarny | probably something like this | 05:21 |
rm_you | can i do that without actually flashing the device? | 05:21 |
KotCzarny | yes | 05:21 |
rm_you | hrm | 05:21 |
KotCzarny | it's probably setting flags | 05:22 |
rm_you | i will try downloading the vmware | 05:22 |

KotCzarny | but be aware | 05:22 |
KotCzarny | that if the device really hangs | 05:22 |
KotCzarny | you will have to take out battery | 05:23 |
KotCzarny | to reboot it | 05:23 |
KotCzarny | :) | 05:23 |

rm_you | lets see... | 05:23 |
KotCzarny | because no reboot button | 05:23 |
rm_you | do i just plug in the usb and run the flasher? | 05:23 |
rm_you | i have no idea how to do this... *sigh* | 05:23 |

GeneralAntilles | Don't you have easyroot or something installed. :P | 05:30 |
KotCzarny | to pinpoint which one is responsible for resets | 05:30 |
rm_you | yeah i do.. | 05:30 |
rm_you | whatever | 05:30 |
rm_you | anyway, so i tried ./flasher-3.0 --set-rd-flags no-omap-wd,no-retu-wd,no-lifeguard-reset | 05:31 |

rm_you | yeah ok, i dont know if it's a good idea, but recent testing shows that repeatedly smacking the n800 lightly against my hand from about two inches away *will* make it reboot | 05:53 |

KotCzarny | but some of them are critical | 06:07 |
KotCzarny | and you better know what you are doing | 06:07 |
woodwizzle | I don't have an n810, but I'm considering it, however I know I'd be using unofficial GPS and Media players, I wanted to make sure I could install those and uninstall the originals | 06:07 |
woodwizzle | otherwise I'd run out of space on the built in 2gigs | 06:07 |
KotCzarny | lol | 06:07 |
KotCzarny | out of space? | 06:08 |
GeneralAntilles | The internal card isn't used for application installation. | 06:08 |
GeneralAntilles | Well, except for caching by Application manager. | 06:08 |
woodwizzle | oh, apps are installed on the sd card? | 06:08 |
GeneralAntilles | Everything install onto the internal 256MB flash. | 06:08 |
GeneralAntilles | No | 06:08 |
woodwizzle | oh, doesn't that run out quick? | 06:09 |
KotCzarny | woodwizzle: some are putting data there | 06:09 |
KotCzarny | like maemo-mapper | 06:09 |
KotCzarny | but it's all application configurable | 06:09 |
GeneralAntilles | There are three things in the N810: the internal 256MB of flash for the OS and applications, the 2GB internal card (soldered on SD card), and the external minisd slot | 06:09 |
KotCzarny | most often | 06:09 |
GeneralAntilles | Not particularly | 06:09 |
GeneralAntilles | It really depends on what you install | 06:09 |
GeneralAntilles | You can always boot from a partition on either one of the cards. | 06:10 |

KotCzarny | why not n800 ? | 06:37 |
GeneralAntilles | How important is pocketability? | 06:38 |
woodwizzle | I'm not sure. I have a laptop that is about 13.3in. I know I want smaller and more linux friendly than that. I'm not sure if an eee is small enough though. I can see some situations where I would only have a pocketable device that I would use | 06:39 |
KotCzarny | how much cpu will you need? | 06:40 |
woodwizzle | Maybe settling a bet in a bar. Looking up an obscure 8-ball rule on the net. (though this of course requires available wifi). I like the idea of it as a portable multimedia player too. | 06:40 |
KotCzarny | ie. do you plan playing 3d games? | 06:40 |
KotCzarny | :> | 06:40 |
GeneralAntilles | The Eee isn't at all pocketable, and its formfactor greatly limits (read: eliminates) any real mobile usability. | 06:40 |
woodwizzle | Though the 8gb limit isn't quite the ammount I would like | 06:40 |
GeneralAntilles | ebooks are awesome, too. | 06:40 |
GeneralAntilles | SD cards will get bigger | 06:40 |
KotCzarny | erm. what 8gb limit? | 06:40 |
GeneralAntilles | The 16s will be out soon. | 06:40 |
woodwizzle | I read that the n810 could only handle an 8gb card | 06:41 |
GeneralAntilles | 32s by the end of summer. | 06:41 |
KotCzarny | old news | 06:41 |
KotCzarny | :) | 06:41 |

*** TimRiker has joined #maemo | 06:41 | |

rm_you | n800 > n810 imo | 06:42 |
KotCzarny | yes | 06:42 |
woodwizzle | Yeah I saw that, I dunno if I'm willing to give up the keyboard though. Also I like GPS a lot. | 06:42 |
KotCzarny | n810 is a little step backward and to the side | 06:42 |
GeneralAntilles | The GPS on the N810 sucks. | 06:43 |
KotCzarny | get bt gps | 06:43 |
rm_you | woodwizzle: buy an external bluetooth GPS for $60 | 06:43 |
KotCzarny | and you're done | 06:43 |
GeneralAntilles | Better off with a Bluetooth GPS | 06:43 |
rm_you | it's WAY better than the n810 internal | 06:43 |
GeneralAntilles | That has a quarter of the acquisition time, can get and hold a lock indoors, and has much better accuracy overall | 06:43 |
woodwizzle | Is the n800 pocketable? I know the 810 is smaller | 06:43 |
KotCzarny | not much | 06:44 |
GeneralAntilles | Oh, and, optionally, run at 5Hz | 06:44 |
rm_you | woodwizzle: i do it | 06:44 |
KotCzarny | they're comparable | 06:44 |
GeneralAntilles | They're both plenty pocketable. | 06:44 |
GeneralAntilles | N800 is mostly longer. | 06:44 |
KotCzarny | few mm at most | 06:44 |
woodwizzle | run at 5hz? | 06:44 |

rm_you | ... | 06:51 |
rm_you | right | 06:51 |
rm_you | so how is that better?! | 06:51 |
elb | you don't have any GPS tracking within 1 foot | 06:51 |
elb | if it's telling you that, it's lying | 06:51 |
GeneralAntilles | 5hz updates more often. | 06:51 |
GeneralAntilles | So you get cleaner tracks and better accuracy through turns. | 06:51 |
woodwizzle | which ones cheaper | 06:51 |
rm_you | elb: I walk outside, i look at gps, i look at my surroundings, i determine it's within +/- 1 foot | 06:51 |
rm_you | elb: it didn't tell me that, I decided that :P | 06:52 |
* Proteous plops out his epeen to join the debate | 06:52 | |
GeneralAntilles | The map isn't accurate enough to determine that kind of accuracy. :P | 06:52 |
elb | if you're talking about relative GPS (with a fixed ground station for reference) you should be able to get fractions of an inch | 06:52 |
Proteous | I'm talking about second cousin GPS | 06:52 |
elb | but GPS signals simply don't have enough accuracy to give you 1' resolution, even with corrective data from WAAS etc. | 06:52 |
Proteous | does that count? | 06:52 |
rm_you | google sattelite map shows me when i'm under my porch, which is about 3ft wide, lol | 06:53 |
KotCzarny | proteous: you track your cousin? | 06:53 |
KotCzarny | O.o | 06:53 |
GeneralAntilles | woodwizzle, get the M7 from semsons here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B0013CHFK2/ref=dp_olp_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1207021818&sr=8-1 | 06:53 |
KotCzarny | sick! | 06:53 |
Proteous | yeah, with relative GPS | 06:53 |
elb | rm_you: any particular given location might be within 1' at any particular given time | 06:53 |
KotCzarny | relatively sick! | 06:53 |
Proteous | sic | 06:53 |
GeneralAntilles | Proteous has a sick, sick mind. | 06:53 |
elb | but GPS doesn't give you a single location, it gives you a probability distribution for a location | 06:54 |
Proteous | I could be on mars | 06:54 |
Proteous | GPS wouldn't tell me that | 06:54 |
elb | and the best you can hope for is about 9' | 06:54 |
elb | (with 95% probability, if I recall correctly) | 06:54 |
rm_you | i have no idea what the statistics on this thing are... i'm just telling you my real-world observations | 06:54 |
Proteous | depends on if GPS has been degraded by the military | 06:54 |
elb | it hasn't | 06:55 |
rm_you | and frankly, i don't *care* about the specs, as long as the real-world observations are this good :P | 06:55 |
woodwizzle | how big are those recievers? Could I fit the reciever and the n800 in the same pocket or same case (preferably with a belt clip) | 06:55 |
Proteous | if it can direct me to the fridge to find beer then I don't care | 06:55 |
elb | if you stand on your porch for a few minutes, you should see yourself drifting out from under it | 06:55 |
Proteous | (sometimes I get lost) | 06:55 |
Proteous | I had that happen to me elb | 06:55 |
elb | anyway, you're welcome to believe whatever you want -- just don't try to count on it for resolution better than a few yards | 06:55 |
Proteous | but I had eaten some moldy stuff from the fridge right before | 06:55 |
GeneralAntilles | woodwizzle, I usually carry mine in a watchpocket when I take it with me. | 06:56 |
woodwizzle | You mean that little mini jean pocket? | 06:56 |
woodwizzle | Thats not bad at all | 06:56 |
GeneralAntilles | Right. | 06:56 |
Proteous | I keep my phone in there when I have me 770 in my pocket | 06:56 |
Proteous | and I'm talking like a pirate it seems | 06:57 |
oob | so you do GeneralAntilles, so you do; http://www.eholster.com/eholsters1.html | 06:57 |
woodwizzle | I have yet to find a n800 for $200 | 06:57 |
Proteous | arr, I keeps me phone in theres when I be out to sea | 06:57 |
KotCzarny | woodwizzle: froogle | 06:57 |
KotCzarny | :) | 06:57 |
GeneralAntilles | Haha | 06:57 |
rm_you | wow, it DOES fit in my watch-pocket | 06:57 |
rm_you | crazy :P | 06:57 |
GeneralAntilles | Stylish and functional! | 06:57 |
KotCzarny | i have seen one for ~190 | 06:57 |
rm_you | i never knew what that stupid tiny pocket was for :P | 06:57 |
GeneralAntilles | Watches, of course! | 06:57 |
KotCzarny | rm_you: it's for condoms | 06:57 |
KotCzarny | of course | 06:57 |
rm_you | woodwizzle: about two weeks ago i saw one for $180 | 06:57 |
GeneralAntilles | Some people like to use it for change. <_< | 06:57 |
elb | that dude is a nerd | 06:58 |
elb | I demand a shoulder holster, though | 06:58 |
GeneralAntilles | elb, that would be me, except it'd be a 9mm in there. :P | 06:58 |
elb | well, I carry a .40 | 06:58 |
oob | a nerd sporting the very latest in portable haute couture | 06:58 |
elb | but yeah | 06:58 |

woodwizzle | How good is the bluetooth on these things? | 07:04 |
woodwizzle | I mean can I use a stereo bluetooth headset and a bluetooth gps and keyboard all at the same time? | 07:04 |
elb | gps is very low rate | 07:05 |
elb | bluetooth is designed to handle more than one headset | 07:06 |
elb | now, I dunno about the Nokia itself | 07:06 |
oob | i've had a bluetooth odb-II tool, phone and keyboard connected concurrently without encountering any issues | 07:08 |
oob | i'd say the odb-II is quite high rate | 07:08 |
woodwizzle | Nice | 07:08 |
woodwizzle | the n800 can do 2 sdhc cards too. Is 16gb the biggest out now? I could get 2 of those for about $60 each. and That gives me the same amount of space as the $500 i touch | 07:09 |
rm_you | oob: where did you buy your odb-II? | 07:10 |
rm_you | woodwizzle: i think 32gb will be out soon... | 07:10 |
Proteous | I modded a retractable USB cable to make it more pocketable: http://mike.ogaz.org/files/usbretract5.jpg | 07:10 |
oob | rm_you, http://www.kbmsystems.net/ | 07:10 |
GeneralAntilles | obd-ii is quite cool | 07:11 |
GeneralAntilles | Don't think the data rate is high at all, though. | 07:11 |
rm_you | yeah, i need one... | 07:11 |
rm_you | my car does... odd things sometimes | 07:11 |
woodwizzle | what is obd-ii ? | 07:11 |
oob | no? it seems to poll a lot of sensors | 07:11 |
GeneralAntilles | Maybe somewhere in the range of 50Kbps? | 07:11 |
oob | woodwizzle, an interface to onboard car computers | 07:11 |
GeneralAntilles | Depends on the car, though, I suppose. | 07:11 |
woodwizzle | oh, i know what you mean. | 07:12 |
GeneralAntilles | oob, it's not like there's a lot of data there. | 07:12 |
rm_you | woodwizzle: you plug it into most modern cars (they have a strange looking jack somewhere under a plastic panel usually) and it reads all your car's sensors | 07:12 |
oob | true | 07:12 |
oob | woodwizzle, http://openbossa.indt.org/carman/ | 07:12 |
rm_you | about a year ago i had 4 of 5 of my cylinders misfiring >_< | 07:12 |

woodwizzle | Man that is wicked! | 07:14 |
rm_you | lol | 07:14 |
rm_you | wow, this is expensive >_> $170 | 07:14 |

oob | rm_you, compared to some of the other odb-II interfaces it's better because it's very short | 07:19 |
rm_you | yes | 07:19 |
rm_you | the other ones i saw were all serial interface with bluetooth attachments sold seperately | 07:19 |
GeneralAntilles | I paid $100 for mine. | 07:20 |
GeneralAntilles | Just a rs-232 adaptor, basically. | 07:20 |
oob | this is good for instance in an audi s8, as it fits in the port under the ashtray and doesn't block the sliding door from closing | 07:20 |
rm_you | oob: you just leave it in there all the time? | 07:20 |
rm_you | or just use it for periodic maintenance checks? | 07:20 |
KotCzarny | yawn | 07:21 |
KotCzarny | doh, it's late again | 07:21 |
Proteous | don't you hate that | 07:22 |
KotCzarny | a little | 07:22 |
GeneralAntilles | People with S8s? Yes. :P | 07:22 |
oob | rm_you, the carman application provides realtime monitoring, which is detail that's pertinent when driving, so I have it on when i'm in the car | 07:22 |
woodwizzle | How good is the battery life on an n800 compared to an n810? | 07:22 |
oob | ha! | 07:23 |
KotCzarny | woodwizzle: similiar | 07:23 |
Navi | Does carman still perform horribly on the N8X0s? | 07:23 |
*** christefano has joined #maemo | 07:23 | |
KotCzarny | they're nearly the same hw | 07:23 |
Proteous | one has a keyboard on GPS | 07:23 |
KotCzarny | disfunctional gps | 07:23 |
Proteous | heh | 07:23 |
KotCzarny | so it doesn't count | 07:23 |
KotCzarny | and kb takes nearly no power | 07:24 |
GeneralAntilles | woodwizzle, they're the same. | 07:24 |
Proteous | it has cell assisted GPS but doesn't have cell phone functionality | 07:24 |
woodwizzle | ok | 07:24 |
KotCzarny | unless you count leds | 07:24 |
GeneralAntilles | The guts aren't really different. | 07:24 |
GeneralAntilles | Navi, haven't tried it with OS2008 yet | 07:24 |
GeneralAntilles | I suspect it'll be better. | 07:24 |
GeneralAntilles | It wasn't actually "horrible" in OS2007 either way | 07:24 |
Proteous | ramping up the processor speed never helped battery life before... | 07:24 |
GeneralAntilles | They have frequency scaling now. | 07:25 |
KotCzarny | but dsp is lowered | 07:25 |
rm_you | Proteous: actually, it ends up being similar... higher cpu for shorter time, vs lower cpu for longer time | 07:25 |
oob | navi - i've only used it on os2008 so can't compare but anecdotally, i find the performance acceptable | 07:25 |
GeneralAntilles | So, most of the time, it's actually running a lot slower than OS2007. | 07:25 |
rm_you | also, yes, good cpu scaling now... | 07:25 |
Proteous | I see | 07:25 |
GeneralAntilles | OS2007 was 330MHz all the time. | 07:26 |
GeneralAntilles | Now we're 165MHz most of the time with trips to 400MHz | 07:26 |
Proteous | damn 330 haters | 07:26 |
KotCzarny | 330/220 | 07:26 |
GeneralAntilles | Navi, think any performance issues were really ones with the slow serial interface that is OBD-II, anyway. | 07:26 |
Proteous | 330MHz all the time was good enough for OS2007, it good enough for you! | 07:27 |
* KotCzarny disabled that mode and is 400/133 now | 07:27 | |
Proteous | I found a trick to get my 770 to run at 0Mhz | 07:27 |
KotCzarny | rm_you: you mean overclocking to 500mhz would consume same power? | 07:27 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 07:27 |
Proteous | I just leave it on for a day | 07:27 |
*** skibur has quit IRC | 07:28 | |
rm_you | KotCzarny: no :P lol | 07:28 |
KotCzarny | ok, time for some c coding | 07:29 |
rm_you | KotCzarny: assuming the same task though, the same number of CPU cycles will be required in the long run, so if you need 5000 cpu cycles to complete a calculation, it will run at 400mhz for a shorter time than on 330mhz... so even though it draws more power per time unit, it runs for less time units :P so it is close to even generally | 07:29 |

*** murrayc has joined #maemo | 07:31 | |
rm_you | the same thing applies to laptop harddrives... for a long time everyone had 5400rpm drives, because they were lower power... but they also need to spin longer... so it really doesn't make a power difference. though, there is a slight heat difference <_< | 07:31 |
* Proteous just does his binary calculations on a adder he built from legos | 07:31 | |

GeneralAntilles | M7 | 07:44 |
GeneralAntilles | Duh | 07:44 |
woodwizzle | I'll prolly be fine with 16gb until the 32gb comes out. Then in the end I'd have 48 =) | 07:44 |
KotCzarny | only if you get n800 | 07:44 |
woodwizzle | Yeah, well it looks like I'll be going that way | 07:45 |
KotCzarny | you may wait for 810 successor though | 07:45 |

*** Tuco has quit IRC | 07:47 | |

KotCzarny | you get an environment that simulates the device | 08:21 |
woodwizzle | hmm.. Gotta check the specs. Something like Assault Cube might be doable | 08:22 |
tsukasa | how is that different/better/worst then an emulator? | 08:22 |
KotCzarny | runs fast | 08:22 |
woodwizzle | How do you control doom and quake? Do you need a bluetooth mouse? | 08:22 |
Italodance | tsukasa where are u from? | 08:22 |
KotCzarny | because actual code is compiled for x86 | 08:22 |
tsukasa | Italodance, texas | 08:22 |
Italodance | ok :D | 08:22 |
KotCzarny | so you can test how developed app feels like | 08:22 |
KotCzarny | and you can test for bugs | 08:23 |
tsukasa | KotCzarny, so it functions the same just on a diff arch | 08:23 |
KotCzarny | yeah | 08:23 |
tsukasa | KotCzarny, the entire os and everything is there and works tho right | 08:23 |
KotCzarny | but it doesn't have dsp emulation | 08:23 |
KotCzarny | so anything trying to speak directly to hardware will fail | 08:23 |
KotCzarny | tsukasa: yes | 08:23 |
tsukasa | cool | 08:23 |
KotCzarny | i guess | 08:23 |
KotCzarny | but you can't run arm binaries on it | 08:24 |
tsukasa | yeah.. | 08:24 |
KotCzarny | that's why it's simulator | 08:24 |
KotCzarny | :) | 08:24 |
KotCzarny | never used it though | 08:24 |
KotCzarny | i just mount my pc's dir via sshfs and run directly on device | 08:25 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 08:25 |
tsukasa | does the n800 have ir? | 08:25 |
KotCzarny | nope | 08:25 |
tsukasa | thats sucks | 08:25 |
KotCzarny | why? | 08:25 |
tsukasa | because otherwise it could be a universal remote too | 08:25 |
KotCzarny | there's usb | 08:25 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 08:25 |
tsukasa | hey if anyone in here works for nokia | 08:25 |
KotCzarny | usb--irda should work | 08:25 |
tsukasa | a 30cent ir port would be nice | 08:25 |
KotCzarny | space issues? | 08:26 |
tsukasa | i know but it costs like nothing to include | 08:26 |
KotCzarny | :) | 08:26 |
tsukasa | i guess | 08:26 |
tsukasa | the added functionality is worth it imo | 08:26 |
KotCzarny | it's already packed up to the top | 08:26 |
KotCzarny | consider this: | 08:26 |
KotCzarny | they have to throw out sd slots from n800 to make additional features fit into n810 | 08:26 |
Cptnodegard | sure | 08:27 |
KotCzarny | *had | 08:27 |
tsukasa | gps is slightly more involved then ir though, im guessing | 08:27 |
Cptnodegard | they removed them to make it thing and pointless, macbook aiur style | 08:27 |
KotCzarny | n800 ftw! | 08:27 |
tsukasa | KotCzarny, also consider the other side of the argument, you spend like $250 for a logitech harmony which is a universal remote with touchscreen with enough space to save like 50 configurations | 08:28 |
tsukasa | or you add a 30 cent ir attachment to the n800 and your done | 08:28 |
KotCzarny | :) | 08:28 |
KotCzarny | tsukasa, as i said usb--irda | 08:28 |
Cptnodegard | but i totally agree that ir port would pwn, there are apps to work as universal remote. a usb thingy isnt a solution either because of the stupid placement of the usb port | 08:28 |
*** mbuf has joined #maemo | 08:28 | |
KotCzarny | is there any bt-irda ? | 08:28 |
tank-man | i think ive seen one | 08:29 |
Cptnodegard | i think so... or wifi ones. that app has to use somethig :p the universal remote one | 08:29 |
tank-man | you can use a ir remote with the ps3 bluetooth | 08:29 |
Cptnodegard | what would pwn would be a to a have an app for a cellphone, working as bt-ir bridge | 08:30 |
Cptnodegard | just leave the cell by the stereo and control from n8x0 | 08:30 |
KotCzarny | not a problem | 08:30 |
KotCzarny | :) | 08:30 |
Cptnodegard | thats available? | 08:31 |
KotCzarny | for someone who can program java or symbian ;) | 08:31 |

KotCzarny | not enough then | 08:32 |
Cptnodegard | simoleans are from The Sims | 08:32 |
KotCzarny | never played the sims | 08:32 |
Cptnodegard | i would do it but i cant program my dick to piss straight | 08:33 |
woodwizzle | How fast is the ARM CPU running maemo and all. Does it feel quick? | 08:33 |
KotCzarny | woodwizzle: depends | 08:33 |
KotCzarny | interface is fast | 08:33 |
Cptnodegard | 57mph | 08:33 |
woodwizzle | How about video performance? | 08:33 |
KotCzarny | browser can be slow sometimes | 08:33 |
tank-man | 9.8m/s/s | 08:34 |
Cptnodegard | stuttering no matter how small the video is | 08:34 |
KotCzarny | but there are developed fast versions | 08:34 |
KotCzarny | cpt: not true | 08:34 |
KotCzarny | :) | 08:34 |
Cptnodegard | does with me | 08:34 |
KotCzarny | it's all because xomap is reniced to -1 | 08:34 |
Cptnodegard | and from what i can see on itt, it does with others too | 08:34 |
Cptnodegard | the what has donewhat? | 08:34 |
KotCzarny | :) | 08:34 |
tank-man | encode your videos with a smaller resolution | 08:36 |
Cptnodegard | the secondary stabilizer in the gyrodane relee has depolarized | 08:36 |
Cptnodegard | 320x240 is small enough, theres still hickups (not constant stuttering) | 08:36 |
tank-man | are you using mplayer ? | 08:37 |
tank-man | or some frontend with that? | 08:37 |
Cptnodegard | mplayer | 08:38 |
*** trickie has quit IRC | 08:38 | |
KotCzarny | cpt: i have no stuttering with 720x448 vid | 08:39 |
KotCzarny | with content over sshfs | 08:39 |
KotCzarny | :) | 08:39 |
Cptnodegard | stuttering or hickups? as what im talking about is playing videos and getting stuttering for 2 secs or so randomly on small videos | 08:40 |
KotCzarny | as i said, renice your xomap to 0 | 08:40 |
KotCzarny | ps ax|grep Xomap | 08:40 |
Cptnodegard | yeah i dunno wtf that means, sorry :) | 08:40 |
KotCzarny | then take first number and: renice -0 number | 08:40 |

woodwizzle | If I want to see if something compiles for maemo, can I just try to compile it for a maemo emulator? | 08:59 |
woodwizzle | That way I can test if some programs are compatible | 08:59 |
KotCzarny | why? | 08:59 |
*** `0660 has joined #maemo | 09:00 | |

KotCzarny | yes | 09:00 |

woodwizzle | Does it scale to the speed and resolution of the n800? | 09:01 |

KotCzarny | probably no open source decoder | 09:50 |
ameng | mplayer on my ubuntu pc can play | 09:51 |
KotCzarny | that's different | 09:51 |
KotCzarny | because there's binary codec for x86 | 09:51 |
KotCzarny | few of them even | 09:51 |

Gatestone | Any feelings about Android here, have you looket at the toolkit? | 11:51 |
aquatix | android is not what you would call `open' | 11:51 |
aquatix | it's an interesting platform though | 11:51 |
Gatestone | Why is it not open? | 11:52 |
liri | do you think nokia will ever put basic cellular capabilities in the internet tablet series? | 11:52 |
*** megabyte405 has quit IRC | 11:52 | |
aquatix | even if it's based on linux, they only open up the device for developers through their java platform | 11:52 |
aquatix | similar to how existing linux-based dumbphones work | 11:53 |
aquatix | except that android is a lot spiffier than that mini java | 11:53 |
*** aquarius- has quit IRC | 11:53 | |
Gatestone | How about LiMo?I am just trying to figure out the future of phones, and it looks to me that it is Nokia/Symbian vs. Apple vs. Android vs. maybe something else? | 11:54 |
*** _berto_ has joined #maemo | 11:54 | |
Gatestone | And I am not sure if the "something else" is viable, really. | 11:54 |
aquatix | `something else' could be access' linux platform | 11:54 |
aquatix | which i think is quite nice, but i'm not sure how many devices we will see with it | 11:55 |
aquatix | fun thing is that nokia currently has 3 platforms; symbian s60, maemo and now qt | 11:55 |
aquatix | maybe we'll see qt phones | 11:55 |
Gatestone | I am not really interested in my won perspective as a user, just trying to forecast the market in 10 years from now. | 11:55 |
aquatix | that'd be nice i guess | 11:56 |
aquatix | hm | 11:56 |
aquatix | i'm not sure how long symbian will live | 11:56 |
jaska | hopefully not long | 11:56 |
aquatix | linux will have a large market share | 11:56 |
Gatestone | (I have a N70 which is pretty lame, I am dreaming of an Android or iPhone...) | 11:56 |
MangoFusion | personally i think android is quite a nifty idea. though its a pity you can (currently) only make apps for it in java | 11:56 |
aquatix | and i think it heads to open phones [as in: easily developed for] | 11:56 |
aquatix | MangoFusion: yeah | 11:57 |
aquatix | it's really nice, but they only opened those abilities to their java layer | 11:57 |
aquatix | otoh, java is a nice, object oriented language | 11:57 |
aquatix | however, the android java is yet another dialect | 11:57 |
jaska | java nice? | 11:58 |
aquatix | it's not the real java | 11:58 |
jaska | this is april 1st indeed | 11:58 |
Gatestone | Why I am on this channel, is that I should do a Maemo presentation for our (beginning) Linux developers. | 11:58 |
aquatix | jaska: depends on your point of view ;) | 11:58 |
aquatix | at *can* be nice :) | 11:58 |
aquatix | i hope maemo sticks around | 11:58 |
MangoFusion | though should be possible to target other languages to it. just like there is JRuby, Jython, C for J2ME, etc | 11:58 |
aquatix | for the more serious devices | 11:58 |
aquatix | MangoFusion: android's java != j2me | 11:59 |
aquatix | fyi :) | 11:59 |
MangoFusion | sure but i am just generalising here | 11:59 |
aquatix | kk :) | 11:59 |
Gatestone | I guess some kind of interpreted virtual machine standard would be nice for a phone platform, with device drivers offering higher performance functionality like multimedia or 3D graphics rendering. | 12:00 |
aquatix | yeah | 12:01 |
aquatix | that's exactly what android's doing | 12:01 |
Italodance | ummm i want skin for mplayer available??????????????? | 12:01 |
aquatix | so i think it's quite nice | 12:01 |
aquatix | but it's not an open linux phone platform | 12:01 |
blafasel | Btw: I'd really like to see an OpenMoko phone finally | 12:04 |

Gatestone | I guess we haven't seen the final solution yet. There is room for some technological revelutions here. | 12:23 |
Gatestone | BTW, look how one non-standard innovation can grab a lot of market, like Blackberry, or iPhone. So if you come up with a GOOD CHEAP phone, it does not matter which tech it uses internally. | 12:24 |
blafasel | Depends. It does matter for those who care. | 12:30 |

Ritchie mentions the PathStar softswitch, but does not mentione that Lucent also did an Inferno land line phone, and implemented hand-writing recognition for a test phone in the lab, using Plan 9 / Inferno. | 13:24 |

Anyone got any clues to what I set up wrong. It's a while since I did it now so I am stumpted :/ | 15:33 |

blafasel | hullfandan: What are you trying to do? | 15:51 |
inz | hull, are you trying to run from a mmc card? | 15:51 |
blafasel | sudo su doesn't work, because you probably didn't allow that in the /etc/sudoers (or the equivalent) | 15:52 |
hullfandan | I am trying to run an application i developed. I am sure i have run it before but I could have forgot and updated it without setting execute bit. can i check this on maemo device? | 15:52 |
blafasel | But you seem to be mixing things anyway, somehow | 15:52 |
blafasel | ls -l | 15:52 |
blafasel | And you don't need root so far | 15:52 |
hullfandan | I am pretty new to linux so appologies for any noobishness | 15:52 |
blafasel | Unless you forgot to mention something ;) | 15:52 |
hullfandan | I thought I needed root to ftp/ssh stuff to the device over wifi and to execute it? | 15:53 |
blafasel | ls -l and look at the output. it should probably be -rwxr-x-- yourfile or something | 15:53 |
hullfandan | yeah it is -rwxr-xr-x | 15:54 |
blafasel | So it is eXecutable | 15:54 |
blafasel | You can run it as it is. | 15:54 |

hullfandan | lol, :) | 15:58 |
hullfandan | basicaly I didn't need to become root. I just needed to run it. | 15:58 |
hullfandan | do you need to become root to ftp stuff to the device? | 15:58 |
blafasel | TO? | 15:58 |
blafasel | Huh? You mean downloading files on the device? | 15:59 |
blafasel | No. | 15:59 |
blafasel | Uploading to the device? Depending on the software used: No | 15:59 |
hullfandan | yes, when I build a new version in scrathbox I am currently ftping it to the device | 15:59 |
hullfandan | ok, thanks | 15:59 |
pupnik | you have an ftp server on the device? | 15:59 |
aquatix | can't you better scp? | 15:59 |
blafasel | ftpint to the device translates to "FTP Server on the Nokia" to me | 15:59 |
aquatix | just a thought | 15:59 |
hullfandan | what is scp. Anything that speeds up testing on the device would be great. It is a bit of a pain at the moment | 16:00 |
blafasel | I think you are just downloading though, right? That's not bad at all. FTP is less secure than SSH, but it was meant for file transfers. So use it for that and don't even think about switching to HTTP (or using ssh if there's no incentive) | 16:01 |
hullfandan | Although my new iGo keyboard is speeding things up a bit, even if my lack of experience slows things back down again :) | 16:01 |
*** Dar has quit IRC | 16:01 | |
pupnik | i test on the device by mounting (as client) from the device a share on my scratchbox pc | 16:01 |
pupnik | or by scp'ing the files to the device | 16:01 |
pupnik | whatever file transfer works is ok of course | 16:01 |
hullfandan | are there any documents or tutorials on maemo.org about the different ways to test on devices? | 16:02 |
hullfandan | that mounting option sounds good but I would rather go through a tutorial on setting that or other ways up instead of bothering you nice people :) | 16:02 |
hullfandan | All I could find was tutorial on creating debian packages which didn't work and seemed overkill for evaluating the simple stuff I was coding | 16:03 |

*** morbec has joined #maemo | 16:06 | |
hullfandan | ok, thanks. I think a tutorial showing beginers like myself how to do this would be really useful. Lots of stuff on how to get started coding but unless you want to make a package nothing on getting it onto the device and running it. Peopl on here have been great but a tutorial would make sense. Maybe I will write one when I actually understand what I am doing ;) | 16:07 |
*** vcgomes has joined #maemo | 16:08 | |
aquatix | basically you type something like "scp -p <sourcefile> <destination"; depending on if you do this on your tablet or your pc this may look like: "scp -p yourpc_username@192.168.0.4:/path/to/file ./" | 16:11 |
aquatix | hullfandan: are you on a *nix or windows machine? | 16:11 |
hullfandan | debian | 16:12 |
aquatix | ok | 16:12 |
aquatix | you have a password for user `user' on your tablet? | 16:13 |
hullfandan | yes | 16:13 |
aquatix | ok | 16:13 |
aquatix | then you can do something from your debian machine like this: | 16:13 |
aquatix | scp -p yourfile user@ip-of-your-tablet:/path/to/destination | 16:13 |
aquatix | and then it asks for the pw of `user' | 16:14 |
aquatix | you can even use ~/path/in/home after the `:' | 16:14 |
aquatix | the -p is for preserving file attributes, like date/time btw | 16:14 |
aquatix | like the -a in "cp -a file destination" | 16:15 |

*** Spakman has joined #maemo | 16:30 | |
hullfandan | still permission denied, I double check password now.I am sure I just checked it when mesing around with gainroot though | 16:30 |
johnx | try without -p | 16:31 |
aquatix | root pw != user pw | 16:32 |
aquatix | you could try root@192. ... | 16:33 |
aquatix | with that password | 16:33 |
aquatix | if you have remote ssh enabled for root | 16:33 |
hullfandan | i tried without -p and still permisson denied. I also just reset user password using passwd | 16:33 |

jott | hullfandan: you don't need ~/ or /home/user btw... the ":" translates to ~ - so just using "scp file user@ip:" should suffice | 16:35 |
jott | still you should be able to copy files as user to your user home dir .. | 16:35 |
aquatix | jott: yeah, but you need to use the right password :) | 16:36 |

Cptnodegard | why cant they just disable the damn memory card when mounting with usb instead of complaining its in use when iuts not? -.- | 18:41 |
mgedmin | why do you think it's not? | 18:42 |
Cptnodegard | well the tablet has been sitting there doing nothing for 5 hours so if it really is in use, i'd like to know wtf its doing | 18:42 |
mgedmin | burning your battery by a bug in metalayer-crawler | 18:42 |
mgedmin | or filling up your swap file | 18:43 |
Cptnodegard | planning world domination by means of mmc1 :p | 18:43 |

*** harryslamm has joined #maemo | 18:44 | |

* mgedmin is worried about the builtin 2gb flash on the n810 | 18:49 | |
mgedmin | something fishy is going on there | 18:50 |
mgedmin | I created a 1 gb filesystem with mkdosfs over usb there, and now I see it's 1.8 gb | 18:50 |
*** xKLAATUx has joined #maemo | 18:50 | |
mgedmin | did I reformat it in my sleep, or what? | 18:50 |
*** rmoravcik has quit IRC | 18:51 | |
GeneralAntilles | Or you didn't actually create the filesystem. :P | 18:53 |
mgedmin | I did | 18:58 |
mgedmin | I was testing the insane bug (fill up the partition with a big file, say goodbye to your partition table) | 18:58 |
mgedmin | my current worst-case guess is there's only 1 GB of flash there, and writes to the second one just get silently redirected down to the first one | 18:58 |
mgedmin | I was not amused to see a blob of HTML that overwrote the MBR | 18:59 |
*** juergbi has joined #maemo | 18:59 | |
derf | mgedmin: The N810 apparently shipped with an invalid partition table on the internal card. | 19:04 |
derf | If that's what you're referring to (the fs in the partition table was larger than the physical card). | 19:04 |
script | wff? only 1GB on internal flash? | 19:06 |
derf | No... it's a 2GB card, but like hdd manufacturers, there's 2GB and there's 2 GB. | 19:07 |
*** kaie has joined #maemo | 19:07 | |
script | thats ok, i just tought it's only 1GB physically | 19:07 |
derf | Maybe mgedmin is talking about something else... I had to practically fill the entire card to trigger it. | 19:07 |
mgedmin | derf: nope, that happened *after* I reformatted the too-large-2-gb to just-right-2-gb | 19:08 |
mgedmin | and filled up about *half* of it | 19:09 |
derf | Well, that is a problem, then. | 19:09 |
derf | I formatted mine as ext3, and all my problems went away. | 19:09 |
mgedmin | then suddenly filesystem readonly; reboot -> filesystem does not exits at all, partition table nuked, FAT nuked | 19:09 |
mgedmin | may be I should do that too | 19:09 |
*** konttori has joined #maemo | 19:09 | |
derf | (I had _no_ _end_ of problems with FAT and the N800) | 19:09 |
mgedmin | hm | 19:09 |
*** harryslamm has quit IRC | 19:09 | |
mgedmin | my 4gb vfat sd card worked more or less reliably in the n800 | 19:10 |
derf | Maemo mapper would bork the kernel driver reliably in about 15 minutes. | 19:10 |
mgedmin | although one 512mb sd card just died in the external slot | 19:10 |
derf | Card itself was totally fine, but nothing short of a full reboot would get it to work again. | 19:10 |

*** roue has joined #maemo | 22:13 | |
GeneralAntilles | /ignore works nicely. | 22:13 |
lcuk2 | yes, nokia are proud to announce they are working with microsoft to release Windows Vista N series edition ;) | 22:13 |
konttori | With flashing, it's not nice to flash a small patch and have to reinstall everything | 22:13 |
konttori | So, at least SSU is enabler for that | 22:14 |
GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, I really hope so. | 22:14 |
konttori | Also, SSU also allows 3rd party (that's you guys) application updates | 22:14 |
Jaffa | konttori: cool, hopefully the project planners will take advantage of the "release early, release often" approach and not still fall back on big-bang releases. | 22:14 |
aquatix | doc|work: http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17727 has some stuff | 22:14 |
aquatix | meh, stupid lag | 22:14 |
GeneralAntilles | It'd be awfully stupid of them not to leverage this for more smaller releases. | 22:14 |
Jaffa | konttori: aren't we supposed to have that already with App Manager? | 22:14 |
Jaffa | konttori: or does SSU totally replace App Mgr? | 22:15 |
GeneralAntilles | Who knows, though, the UI spec probably has something in there about only updating once every 6 months. <_< | 22:15 |
Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: :) | 22:15 |
lcuk2 | konttori, is this update process in response to things which could be easily patched but which full flash hassle prevents? if so - what fixes have you got lined up? | 22:15 |
konttori | Well, now end users will actually get notified directly of new updates to 3rd party apps as well | 22:15 |
KaaLi | ill believe that tomorrow.. :P | 22:15 |
doc|work | aquatix: thanks | 22:15 |
konttori | lcuk2: indeed. No idea what we might patch/fix/whatnot though | 22:16 |
GeneralAntilles | I'd _really_ like to see MicroB back on the update-every-few-weeks schedule. | 22:16 |
lcuk2 | excellent :) | 22:16 |
GeneralAntilles | Especially with how fast Gecko is moving. | 22:16 |
Jaffa | konttori: sounds interesting. Now, the two things which depress me: a) I'm sure the maemo community could've had some good contributions to make to the UI and spec of SSU; b) we're not going to get to see it/play with it before end-users do. So the power-users who help users on ITT etc. will not be ahead of the game. | 22:16 |
doc|work | also, is the price of the wimax more than the n810 or is a drop in the vanilla n810 price expected? | 22:17 |
aquatix | GeneralAntilles: yeah | 22:17 |
* Jaffa doubts anyone but sales & marketing could answer that | 22:17 | |
doc|work | ok, thought someone might have seen an answer somewhere | 22:17 |
GeneralAntilles | N810 already had a small drop to $439 | 22:18 |

konttori | Ahh.. the correct link: http://www.nseries.com/index.html#l=workshop,articles,414 | 22:18 |
konttori | That was a crash interview: I got notified 5 minutes prior. Then I called new york, talked for an hour on the phone and blam. That's what you see. | 22:19 |
ricko73 | GeneralAntilles: I bought my n810 from Amazon for under $400 | 22:19 |
GeneralAntilles | ricko73, that's MSRP | 22:20 |
ricko73 | gotcha | 22:20 |
GeneralAntilles | Street has little to do with MSRP. :P | 22:20 |
konttori | Jaffa: SSU is really so simple piece UI wise that there was no need to notify anyone. | 22:20 |
ralann | i got mine for $365 | 22:20 |
KaaLi | it stil says april 1st.. | 22:20 |
Jaffa | konttori: fair enough | 22:20 |
ricko73 | understood. didn't realize that MSRP actually changed after a device was initially released | 22:20 |
Jaffa | konttori: so there'll be no bugs or wishes that the UI did such & such? :) | 22:20 |
konttori | Nope. It's just perfect ! ;) | 22:21 |
KaaLi | no1 will remember n810wimax next week... :D | 22:21 |
Jaffa | konttori: all bugs straight assigned to you then ;-) | 22:21 |

KotCzarny | pixel perfect? | 22:23 |
*** znarf has quit IRC | 22:24 | |
lcuk2 | better than it was, im just finishing picking up freetype and getting the aspect ratio better | 22:24 |
glass | Jaffa: widgets for s60 | 22:24 |
glass | Jaffa: web pages that look like programs | 22:24 |
KotCzarny | don't forget about subpixel order | 22:24 |
KotCzarny | unless you don't use subpixel rendering? | 22:24 |
glass | Jaffa: basically you make a zip, send it over, it installs the page as an app to the app browser... | 22:24 |
lcuk2 | im in yuv so its not that important | 22:24 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 22:24 |
KotCzarny | probably | 22:25 |
glass | Jaffa: and launches it without the browser full gui | 22:25 |
Jaffa | glass: "Q: What can people expect from the latest N810? A: [...] Especially now that we have great Python bindings and the support for Web Run-Time, the community should find it very easy to create the same kind of applications that Apple is doing on their dashboard.@ | 22:25 |
Jaffa | So not just for S60 anymore. Will have to look into a bit more | 22:25 |
lcuk2 | well which order should i put my pixels, grey, grey, grey or grey, grey, grey ??? | 22:25 |
*** celesteh has joined #maemo | 22:25 | |
glass | Jaffa: i guess they've got it over there too then, like said, just web pages that look more like proper programs | 22:25 |
Jaffa | lcuk2: no - grey, grey, grey | 22:25 |
KotCzarny | no, grey gray grey grey | 22:25 |
glass | Jaffa: new n95 firmware has it | 22:25 |
konttori | well, web runtime applets are now at your disposal for the desktop | 22:25 |
KotCzarny | alpha gray | 22:26 |
Jaffa | glass: interesting. Hopefully ones working for S60 (for which I assume there's an existing community) should work without modification on ITOS | 22:26 |
glass | Jaffa: i'd assume many of the s60 widgets to assume the screen sizes to be small | 22:26 |
Jaffa | konttori: cool. Is the responsiveness of the desktop and general usability of the home screen OK? | 22:26 |
lcuk2 | konttori :) hope the rollout goes smoothly. ill b back later | 22:26 |
konttori | They run on gecko engine, so you probably can run pretty much anything with them | 22:26 |
glass | Jaffa: dunno about the community yet as it's not really on too many devices | 22:27 |
GeneralAntilles | Woo | 22:27 |
GeneralAntilles | "Update All" | 22:27 |
konttori | Jaffa: Well, it's doing quite fancy 'server rendering' of the widgets | 22:27 |
glass | Jaffa: i was rather surprised they ported it back to n95, the nokias browser guy didn't promise that last june | 22:27 |
Jaffa | Ah, fair enough. New then. Still, leveraging the larger sales and communities (and hype) of the N95 et al should help us as users | 22:27 |
KotCzarny | ok, bbl | 22:27 |
Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: indeed, two little words with so much joy | 22:27 |
glass | Jaffa: yeah, i'd imagine it will be used for weather applets and the like.. small information displayers | 22:28 |
GeneralAntilles | Hopefully it's stopped crashing after every 3rd install. <_< | 22:28 |
konttori | Anyway, as I said in the interview, the python desktop applet bindings are really cool as well. I totally recommend checking them out even now. | 22:28 |
glass | Jaffa: it's a very easy way for web devs to get something 'cool' running on a phone easily so i'd expect the community to grow rapidly soon | 22:28 |
GeneralAntilles | Nice interview, konttori. | 22:29 |

*** freki has joined #maemo | 22:35 | |
konttori | I hope it will sell well though. I would say that the keyboard has better feel than n810 | 22:35 |
konttori | GA: That will depend on how well wimax networks are sold elsewhere. | 22:35 |
freki | hello every body | 22:36 |
konttori | Currently Sprint is really on top of the wimax game | 22:36 |
GeneralAntilles | Canada has very strong coverage with Rogers. | 22:36 |
konttori | the special part about the n810 WE and the sprint network is that it allows you to 'switch' cells on the fly like GSM phone switches them while yo are on the move. | 22:36 |
freki | i have a probleme for update my 770 tu OS2006, does somebody can help me ? | 22:36 |
Jaffa | AIUI, Canada's got the best WiMAX coverage in the world | 22:36 |
konttori | Well, go ahead and call your nearest Rogers to stock them up! | 22:37 |
Jaffa | konttori: so, hectic time until 31st June getting it ready for release and then rolling out to depots. Then you moving on to the N900? | 22:37 |
elb | I'd be shocked if 15% of Canada was covered | 22:38 |
GeneralAntilles | Hehehe, Jaffa. | 22:38 |
elb | I guess it depends on how you define 'best' | 22:38 |
konttori | Jaffa: if you only knew... | 22:38 |
konttori | But yeah, it's hectic at the moment | 22:38 |
* GeneralAntilles wants OMAP3 | 22:38 | |
* GeneralAntilles wants OMAP3 baaaad | 22:38 | |
Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: it was worth a try ;-) | 22:38 |
*** dholbert_ has quit IRC | 22:38 | |
* aquatix just wants peace in has damn head | 22:39 | |
*** dholbert has joined #maemo | 22:39 | |
GeneralAntilles | I still say we should get a retirement fund started for Texrat. | 22:39 |
Jaffa | aquatix: the sound of drums again? | 22:39 |
aquatix | Jaffa: the sound of deadlines zipping by at light speed | 22:39 |

konttori | Jaffa: Did it say somewhere that the device is out on 31st of june? | 22:48 |
Jaffa | 2Q2008. I'm trying to be realistic/pessimistic/cynical. | 22:48 |
* konttori actually doesn't know that date.. We've been more concerned on the dates the firmware has to go to the factory lines. | 22:48 | |
KaaLi | first of all.. is it ever out.. still april 1st.. :D | 22:49 |
*** freki has quit IRC | 22:49 | |
* Jaffa doesn't remember a time when Nokia haven't used all the time available to them when giving a deadline like that | 22:49 | |
Jaffa | KaaLi: it's official. If I hear any more "it's an April Fools' joke" comments, I swear I'm going to scream :) | 22:49 |
konttori | Jaffa: Also, Diablo doesn't have the 'same' WRT support as n95, as we have gecko, symbian has webkit. | 22:49 |
KaaLi | jaffa: like a little girl..? | 22:50 |
konttori | Of course the result should be the same. | 22:50 |
ralann | i would believe it till tomorrow | 22:50 |
*** freki has joined #maemo | 22:50 | |
Jaffa | konttori: yeah, I'll believe that when I see it. Advanced widgetry compatible across render engines? | 22:51 |
glass | konttori: i havent been following, did they add nokia spesific apis for wrt? | 22:51 |
Jaffa | KaaLi: No, like someone trying to discuss something seriously whilst also trying to meet work deadlines | 22:51 |
konttori | glass: I haven't been involved directly on the WRT part, so can't comment on the specifics. | 22:53 |
Jaffa | KaaLi: sorry, it's just it's not a new joke :) | 22:53 |
*** freki has quit IRC | 22:53 | |
GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, how much you wanna bet it wont be out until late July? :P | 22:53 |
*** freki has joined #maemo | 22:53 | |
GeneralAntilles | Or maybe Diablo [i]is[/i] OS2009 and it's coming out in November. :D | 22:53 |
GeneralAntilles | O_o | 22:54 |

KotCzarny | i think jott's xomap patch still breakes xv | 23:18 |
KotCzarny | breakes | 23:18 |
KotCzarny | brakes | 23:18 |
KotCzarny | darmn | 23:18 |
KotCzarny | damn. | 23:18 |
MangoFusion | updated your kernel? | 23:19 |
* lcuk2 . o O ( maybe i won't install rotate after all ) | 23:20 | |
KotCzarny | no, it rotates ok | 23:20 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, but it may be only my n800 | 23:20 |
KotCzarny | i would like you to test it | 23:20 |
*** jeff1f has joined #maemo | 23:20 | |
KotCzarny | so i won't run in circles | 23:20 |
lcuk2 | by the way, i have dpi free scaling of fonts now :) i dropped sdl_ttf :) | 23:20 |
KotCzarny | hehe | 23:20 |
GeneralAntilles | Now with less suck! | 23:20 |
KotCzarny | mango: problem i have with kernel | 23:21 |
KotCzarny | erm. with mplayer | 23:21 |
lcuk2 | at the 225dpi this device is at a 16 point font is massive :) | 23:21 |
KotCzarny | and it's too hot to think | 23:21 |
*** AD-N770 has quit IRC | 23:21 | |
*** behdad has joined #maemo | 23:21 | |
*** AD-N770 has joined #maemo | 23:21 | |
lcuk2 | GeneralAntilles, it never sucked anyway - i discovered why you didnt get full speed and added a later -turbo option and stuff | 23:21 |
*** freki has quit IRC | 23:21 | |
*** AD-N770 has quit IRC | 23:22 | |
lcuk2 | i wonder if we can mirror | 23:22 |
lcuk2 | not just rotate | 23:22 |
KotCzarny | probably | 23:22 |
KotCzarny | xrandr should do rotation and mirroring | 23:22 |
lcuk2 | xrandrandm | 23:23 |
KotCzarny | i can't test right now because i have tried reflashing original kernel | 23:23 |
*** DaniloCesar has quit IRC | 23:23 | |
GeneralAntilles | -turbo sets 400MHz all the time? | 23:24 |
lcuk2 | im glad i took out the sdl_ttf ref :) its another less thing to worry about having installed | 23:24 |
lcuk2 | no, turbo adjusts the omdemand threshhold for the run of the program | 23:24 |
GeneralAntilles | Ah | 23:24 |
lcuk2 | its doing so little and optimised so well that its under the default 80% that its set to | 23:24 |
*** NetBlade has quit IRC | 23:24 | |
Jaffa | lcuk2: what are you actually full screen rendering? | 23:24 |
GeneralAntilles | Right, I remember | 23:24 |
lcuk2 | just test | 23:25 |
lcuk2 | text | 23:25 |
lcuk2 | and lines and dots and maybe circles when i put the code in | 23:25 |
lcuk2 | and pictures when i get a yuv jpeg loader ;) | 23:25 |
Jaffa | ah, so proof-of-concept type stuff | 23:25 |
lcuk2 | yer im just playing - i want fullscreen tear free screen updates | 23:25 |
lcuk2 | (for a book reader) | 23:26 |
lcuk2 | oh kot, i also dug out my pdf parser | 23:26 |
KotCzarny | :) | 23:26 |
KotCzarny | why not using poppler? | 23:26 |
KotCzarny | unless you want only text from pdfs | 23:26 |
lcuk2 | wanna see how full pdf pages look at tearfree :) | 23:26 |
KotCzarny | hehe | 23:27 |
lcuk2 | ive wrote loads of tiny mods to play with different aspects of it - like the starfield | 23:27 |
lcuk2 | and the book test | 23:27 |
lcuk2 | and a little drawing proggy | 23:27 |

lcuk2 | it certainly is, i just need to learn enough about licensing and repos and blogs and all that jibe so i can get them tested and see what we can do with them (if anything) | 23:29 |
*** xKLAATUx has joined #maemo | 23:29 | |

KotCzarny | depends how reliable you need it to be | 23:31 |
KotCzarny | :) | 23:31 |
Jaffa | garage project? | 23:32 |
jott | lcuk2: using some ready service will probably shorten the time until we see your code :P | 23:32 |
KotCzarny | jott: i believe xomap randr patch is buggy.. | 23:32 |
jott | when/where? | 23:32 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk2, remember, release early, release often. ;) | 23:32 |
KotCzarny | i can't play videos using nokia770 or xv drivers | 23:32 |
KotCzarny | with mplayer | 23:32 |
lcuk2 | jaffa im not a member.. but membership has bonuses doesnt it | 23:32 |
jott | rotated or not rotated? | 23:33 |
KotCzarny | doesn't matter | 23:33 |
KotCzarny | black screen | 23:33 |
jott | hm i bet you have v1 ;) | 23:33 |
KotCzarny | no | 23:33 |
KotCzarny | i have reinstalled newer package | 23:33 |
Jaffa | lcuk2: indeed, such as increased karma => better chance of discount on next device | 23:33 |
jott | KotCzarny: of kernel | 23:33 |
KotCzarny | kernel too | 23:33 |
lcuk2 | jaffa :) i read that, i may just have to joinup then | 23:33 |
lcuk2 | the garage has cvs doesnt it | 23:34 |
KotCzarny | but i have tried flashing original kernel (unpatched) | 23:34 |
Jaffa | lcuk2: svn, so even better | 23:34 |
KotCzarny | jott: i have to test it still | 23:34 |
lcuk2 | fairy muff | 23:34 |
jott | KotCzarny: please do so | 23:34 |
KotCzarny | how to update to original xomap? | 23:34 |
jott | just dpkg -i xser*deb | 23:34 |
KotCzarny | ahm, so no apt-get type automation? | 23:35 |
KotCzarny | or --force-reinstall ? | 23:35 |
jott | no.. due to osso-software-version borkness | 23:35 |
KotCzarny | heh | 23:35 |
KotCzarny | i should find the deb then | 23:35 |
jott | erm | 23:36 |
KotCzarny | btw. using rotation command on unpatched kernel + patched xomap is fun ;) | 23:36 |
lcuk2 | lol @ rollback procedures ;) | 23:37 |
KotCzarny | http://repository.maemo.org/pool/chinook/free/x/xorg-server/ | 23:37 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 23:37 |
KotCzarny | this one is ok? | 23:37 |
jott | if there where any debs :) | 23:37 |
KotCzarny | oh | 23:37 |
KotCzarny | silly me | 23:37 |
