KotCzarny | unixsnob: it wasn't meant to be used in host mode | 00:58 |

lcuk | no, 100 is hardware limit | 01:01 |

KotCzarny | add capacitor? | 01:03 |

lcuk | no, 100ma is the USB initial interface wake up draw. an OTB device must not ever attempt to draw or supply more than this figure | 01:03 |

*** anryx has quit IRC | 01:32 | |
lcuk | at one point you will have attempted to connect to it, because its adhoc it stays in your list, and you are yourself giving it out to others ;) | 01:33 |
Ziegler | Ohhhhh | 01:33 |
lcuk | it tries to rebuild itself by broadcasting that its adhoc, someone else nearby tries connecting and whammo... its on their list so when you get back home even after clearing it up the person down the road tries to offer it you again | 01:33 |

lcuk | ok, i'll start simple. i heard earlier that i can add myself to sudoers file at installation time to enable a runtime software turbo option (it will either change to performance, or change the ondemand%threshold) do i need to make a .deb file for that to all work and will the user themselves ever need to be root | 02:12 |

KotCzarny | hmm | 02:12 |
*** ralann has joined #maemo | 02:12 | |
KotCzarny | you should add a script that will ask user | 02:12 |
lcuk | its optional only so wouldnt change without permission | 02:12 |
KotCzarny | or a carefully crafted suid binary | 02:12 |
lcuk | no - it will default off, user will have to say "full speed" | 02:13 |
*** rsalveti has quit IRC | 02:13 | |
*** Pio has joined #maemo | 02:13 | |
KotCzarny | name it lcuk-helper and it will do only 2 things | 02:13 |
lcuk | i suppose the script could work, but then i need to make sure noone can alter the script to do something im not expecting. but because its a script it will turbo on and turbo off | 02:14 |
KotCzarny | 1/ set default governor, 2/ set performance | 02:14 |
KotCzarny | you can't suid a script | 02:14 |
KotCzarny | it needs to be a binary | 02:14 |
lcuk | hence me saying add the installed app to it? | 02:14 |
lcuk | does it need a second binary? | 02:14 |
KotCzarny | though i don't know if it's the case with busybox ash | 02:14 |
*** Spakman__ has joined #maemo | 02:15 | |
KotCzarny | lcuk: you don't want to suid something complicated | 02:15 |
KotCzarny | more ways to introduce exploitable bugs | 02:15 |
lcuk | agreed | 02:15 |
*** Spakman has quit IRC | 02:15 | |
* lcuk can see the logic here | 02:15 | |
KotCzarny | it's a linux philosophy, do one thing, but do it perfect | 02:16 |
KotCzarny | (or at least good enough [tm]) | 02:16 |
KotCzarny | :) | 02:16 |
KotCzarny | or maybe it's unix | 02:16 |
lcuk | if thats the case then, couldnt we just call it liq_ondemandtweak? then its name says what it is | 02:16 |
lcuk | and it could feasibly be used for something else - either all that of course or hope diablo makes it redundant | 02:17 |
KotCzarny | liq_cpufreq_governor_helper | 02:17 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 02:17 |

lcuk | hmmm | 02:18 |
*** vcgomes has joined #maemo | 02:18 | |
KotCzarny | you will have to store default governor somewhere too | 02:18 |
lcuk | governor isnt so bad | 02:18 |
lcuk | if i change the %age it reverts after a reboot | 02:19 |
lcuk | but by default its 80% it just needs lowering to 40 | 02:19 |
KotCzarny | or to anything that was before | 02:19 |
KotCzarny | you don't want to piss of user | 02:19 |
KotCzarny | :) | 02:19 |
KotCzarny | *off | 02:20 |
lcuk | yer which is why i was doing it in software as root. grab current, apply turbo. run program. restore original exit | 02:20 |
lcuk | heh, it could still do it - "runasturbo myprogram" | 02:21 |
*** ccooke has quit IRC | 02:22 | |
lcuk | i would prefer to not need it, but i cannot expect a user to install root and i cannot keep bumping up the processing just to force it to be busy. its more of a waste. %age does seem like best avenue at present | 02:22 |
KotCzarny | yup | 02:23 |
KotCzarny | though sudo way can be nice too | 02:23 |
*** TPC has quit IRC | 02:23 | |
lcuk | but user cannot sudo from the console in device | 02:23 |
*** TPC has joined #maemo | 02:23 | |
KotCzarny | installation process has root right -> add your sudo commands -> user's program can run those commands | 02:24 |
KotCzarny | or am i wrong? | 02:24 |
lcuk | thats the impression i get | 02:24 |
KotCzarny | that i'm wrong? | 02:24 |
KotCzarny | lol | 02:24 |
lcuk | lol | 02:25 |
lcuk | i thought once you were added to the sudoers list running an instance of that app ran it in root context | 02:25 |
lcuk | without needing to sudo xyz | 02:25 |
KotCzarny | no, you only add specific command | 02:25 |
lcuk | sudo checks the permissions and asks the user. items added to sudoers doesnt need to because its trusted | 02:26 |
KotCzarny | and no, you shouldn't add sudo * | 02:26 |
lcuk | yes - i under stand we add this helper | 02:26 |
KotCzarny | erm | 02:26 |
KotCzarny | no | 02:26 |
KotCzarny | suid is something else | 02:26 |
KotCzarny | :) | 02:26 |
KotCzarny | if you add to sudo list: echo performance > /sys/something/governor | 02:27 |
*** ccooke has joined #maemo | 02:27 | |
KotCzarny | user can do: sudo echo performance > /sys/something/governor | 02:27 |
KotCzarny | and nothing else | 02:27 |
KotCzarny | unless you add '*' somewhere | 02:28 |
lcuk | will user be asked for password when calling sudo with that command? | 02:28 |
KotCzarny | don't know, probably not if there's NOPASSWORD on the line | 02:28 |
lcuk | or will it just run the command as a trusted authorized call | 02:28 |
KotCzarny | look in the sudoers file | 02:29 |
lcuk | so, really this could be handled without needing a seperate exe if we just added those echo lines required to switch modes? | 02:29 |
KotCzarny | yes | 02:30 |
lcuk | that was my next question, where is it? | 02:30 |
KotCzarny | but the command will need to be typed exactly the same | 02:30 |
KotCzarny | visudo ? | 02:30 |
KotCzarny | :) | 02:30 |

mikedep333 | hey, I just got my n800. When you go to flash the device with OS2008, it asks you to fully charge the battery. Will flashing the device cause it to stop using AC power or something? | 03:04 |
mikedep333 | I don't want to disrupt the initial 12-24 hour charge | 03:05 |
GeneralAntilles | That charge isn't important on modern batteries. | 03:06 |
GeneralAntilles | The issue is, if the device is plugged into the charger, it doesn't actually fully power off even when you turn it 'off' | 03:07 |
GeneralAntilles | so you can never get into flashing mode | 03:07 |
*** pupnik has quit IRC | 03:08 | |
GeneralAntilles | So, the easy solution, is to unplug it, turn it off, plug in the USB cable, start the flasher, hold down the Swap/Home key and plug in the charger. | 03:08 |

unixSnob | someone 'splain me what this gadget does => www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.9472 | 04:33 |
KotCzarny | Allows you to monitor your home and office from anywhere in the world (as long as there is a phone with you) | 04:33 |
KotCzarny | probably evasedropping device | 04:33 |
KotCzarny | *eavasedropping | 04:34 |
unixSnob | how can it transmit over gsm? doesn't it then need a cellphone account? | 04:34 |
KotCzarny | probably you put your sim in | 04:34 |
unixSnob | so it's continuously running up minutes? | 04:35 |
KotCzarny | if you go with such plan | 04:35 |
KotCzarny | there are many plans with unlimited calling | 04:36 |
unixSnob | I thought folks could not simply pop their sim chip in any device.. I heard cell providers want to control what hardware gets used | 04:36 |
GeneralAntilles | You can pretty much pop your SIM into anything. | 04:37 |
KotCzarny | unixsnob: phones can be 'simlocked' | 04:37 |
GeneralAntilles | As long as it's compatible with the carrier's network. | 04:37 |
KotCzarny | because they're expensive promotions | 04:37 |
KotCzarny | and they don't want you to buy iphone and go with t-mobile | 04:37 |
KotCzarny | etc. | 04:37 |
*** matt_c has joined #maemo | 04:37 | |
unixSnob | right, that's the context that I heard about the restriction | 04:38 |
KotCzarny | if your device is unlocked you can use any card | 04:38 |
KotCzarny | assuming it uses proper technology | 04:38 |
KotCzarny | ie. gsm is not compatible with cdma | 04:38 |
elb | but it is compatible with wcdma | 04:38 |
elb | :-) | 04:39 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:39 |
elb | unixSnob: the locks go the other direction, is what he's saying | 04:39 |
KotCzarny | i should open a position for an interpreter :> | 04:39 |
*** tank-man has quit IRC | 04:39 | |
elb | however, the devices you can put on a GSM network are pretty heavily regulated by the radio regulations administrations | 04:40 |
elb | (e.g., the FCC in the USA) | 04:40 |
unixSnob | yeah, I think it's GSM that terrorists have been using for detonation | 04:40 |
KotCzarny | what terrorists? | 04:40 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:40 |
unixSnob | It's heavily restricted in the US, but there are ways to get anonymous gsm abroad | 04:41 |
KotCzarny | (read: don't fall for tv news) | 04:41 |
elb | if I were a terrorist, I wouldn't care about the radio technology | 04:41 |
unixSnob | i don't have a tv | 04:41 |
KotCzarny | anonymous gsm? | 04:41 |
*** Sargun has joined #maemo | 04:41 | |
elb | just hook a detonator up to, e.g., the vibrator circuit in an off-the-shelf handset and ring it | 04:41 |
KotCzarny | do you have your own base stations? | 04:41 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:41 |
*** matt_c has quit IRC | 04:41 | |
unixSnob | well you would want the technology that exists in the area of your target | 04:41 |
*** matt_c has joined #maemo | 04:42 | |
elb | I don't know of any country which allows *really* anonymous mobile phones | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | elb: prepaid | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 04:42 |
elb | KotCzarny: but they're not really anonymous anywhere I'm aware of | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | elb: yes, imei is probably logged | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | and sim id | 04:42 |
elb | I looked into it in the US a while back, and you had to pay with a proper credit card or else sign up with some personal information | 04:42 |
unixSnob | well there are some ways to get an anonymous GSM outside the US, but it's not straight forward | 04:42 |
unixSnob | I don't recall the details | 04:42 |
KotCzarny | but as long you don't leave any traces it can be treated as anonymous | 04:43 |
*** Masca has quit IRC | 04:43 | |
KotCzarny | and disposable | 04:43 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:43 |
elb | outside the US, I've dealt with phones in several countries, and in most cases you have to have a passport or other form of semi-permanent ID | 04:43 |
KotCzarny | elb: pay with cash | 04:43 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:43 |
elb | (alien registration, for example, in japan) | 04:43 |
*** seraph1 has quit IRC | 04:43 | |
elb | KotCzarny: yes, but then you have to provide personal information, as I said | 04:43 |
elb | at least with the providers I looked at | 04:43 |
KotCzarny | do i? | 04:43 |
*** corq-FL has quit IRC | 04:43 | |
unixSnob | I think it's a matter of getting a GSM sim chip that's activated.. very difficult to do anonymously, but other countries will enable you to order online.. I think that's how it works. | 04:43 |
*** corq-FL has joined #maemo | 04:44 | |
KotCzarny | my sim is registered to 'john doe customer' | 04:44 |
elb | basically they required a credit check, even if you prepaid -- you just don't have to *pass* it | 04:44 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:44 |
elb | KotCzarny: nice | 04:44 |
KotCzarny | elb, t-mobile | 04:44 |
elb | what carrier? | 04:44 |
elb | ahh t-mobile prepaid wasn't available in the area I checked in | 04:44 |
elb | (the network is there, but you have to go somewhere else to get teh phone) | 04:44 |
KotCzarny | i didn't really liked att | 04:44 |
KotCzarny | and verizon used cdma | 04:44 |
elb | we had go phone, whatever the Sprint one was, and US Cellular | 04:45 |
KotCzarny | so i went with tmob | 04:45 |
*** tank-man has joined #maemo | 04:45 | |
KotCzarny | not that i'm happy about pricing, but it works | 04:45 |
*** matt_c has quit IRC | 04:46 | |
unixSnob | what's the pricing? | 04:46 |
*** dougt has joined #maemo | 04:46 | |
KotCzarny | ~16c/min incoming/outgoing | 04:46 |
KotCzarny | and no free minutes at all | 04:46 |
unixSnob | in the US? | 04:46 |
KotCzarny | yes | 04:46 |
elb | that's rape | 04:46 |
KotCzarny | quite | 04:46 |
elb | well, unless you don't hardly use it | 04:46 |
KotCzarny | but for me it's ok | 04:47 |
elb | in which case it's probably still cheaper than a monthly plan | 04:47 |
KotCzarny | i don't talk that much | 04:47 |
unixSnob | I pay $50/month flat, unlimited | 04:47 |
unixSnob | and no contract | 04:47 |
KotCzarny | so any monthly plan would take MORE for me | 04:47 |
KotCzarny | ie, i use 25$ for ~6months | 04:47 |
KotCzarny | roughly | 04:47 |
*** dougt has quit IRC | 04:48 | |
*** dougt has joined #maemo | 04:48 | |
unixSnob | what about internet on your NIT? | 04:48 |
KotCzarny | wlan | 04:48 |
*** rsalveti has joined #maemo | 04:48 | |
unixSnob | so it only works at home and hotspots? | 04:48 |
KotCzarny | yes | 04:48 |
KotCzarny | but you have hotspots everywhere | 04:49 |
KotCzarny | and if there's no free/open ones you can go to starbucks | 04:49 |
KotCzarny | or something | 04:49 |
Ziegler | Subway | 04:49 |
unixSnob | Well, don't have home ISP service.. just EVDO for $50/mo | 04:50 |
KotCzarny | i'm cheap | 04:50 |
KotCzarny | 20$ dsl | 04:50 |
unixSnob | but coverage is spotless, almost | 04:50 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:50 |
GeneralAntilles | $20 "non-tethering" "unlimited" from AT&T for the NIT | 04:50 |
GeneralAntilles | 3g | 04:50 |
GeneralAntilles | Works really nicely. | 04:50 |
unixSnob | really? | 04:50 |
unixSnob | wow.. the best price I've heard so far has been $30 for SERO | 04:51 |
unixSnob | is that a 1 yr contract? | 04:51 |
KotCzarny | knowing att it's 2-3years | 04:51 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:51 |
Ziegler | $12 / mo no contract dsl here | 04:51 |
unixSnob | that would blow it.. Millenicom is month to month | 04:52 |
Ziegler | Well.... 12.99 | 04:52 |
KotCzarny | ziegler + tax ? | 04:52 |
KotCzarny | :) | 04:52 |
Ziegler | Nope | 04:52 |
unixSnob | but $20 for att 3g unlimited is great for folks who know they can be locked in.. I'll have to mention that to a buddy | 04:52 |
KotCzarny | unixsnob: what pings you have on evdo? | 04:53 |
KotCzarny | fe. google.com etc | 04:53 |

KotCzarny | well, 4 | 04:55 |
unixSnob | well, with evdo, spikes are common | 04:55 |
KotCzarny | unixsnob: nice | 04:55 |
elb | that's pretty good latency for cellular | 04:55 |
unixSnob | there might be a frequent periodic 500ms ping.. so that's a neussance | 04:56 |
unixSnob | (i meant an unfavorable spike) | 04:56 |
elb | KotCzarny: AT&T doesn't reduce plan prices by contract | 04:56 |
elb | yeah, but that's way better than the old 1xRTT I used to use on Sprint | 04:56 |
unixSnob | Also, my evdo connection is inconsistent. If a lot of users are hitting my tower, VOIP becomes useless | 04:57 |
elb | I had latency all over the map, from about 100ms to about 2s | 04:57 |
lcuk | and also in uk | 04:57 |
unixSnob | so latency is poor at peak times | 04:57 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: isn't uk gmt+0 ? | 04:57 |
unixSnob | yeah, much better than 1xRTT | 04:57 |
unixSnob | If I'm out in the sticks, my connection drops to 1xRTT | 04:58 |
elb | there's no excuse for cellular data to be so friggin' expensive | 04:58 |
elb | back when I had 1xRTT ... it's what there was ;-) | 04:58 |
lcuk | would assume so since greenwich is in uk... | 04:58 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: :) | 04:58 |
elb | I paid $10/mo unlimited data | 04:58 |
KotCzarny | so it's 3am | 04:58 |
lcuk | you in your hidey hole? | 04:59 |
elb | back before they figured out they could rape people for it, I guess | 04:59 |
KotCzarny | elb: wow, for a cellular data? | 04:59 |
unixSnob | elb, you paid that for 1xrtt? | 04:59 |
elb | I did | 04:59 |
elb | in about 2001 or 2002 | 04:59 |
unixSnob | that's a very good price for 1XRTT | 04:59 |
unixSnob | what provider? | 04:59 |
KotCzarny | can you get only cellular plan? | 04:59 |
elb | Sprint | 04:59 |
elb | who I no longer carry because they suck ass | 04:59 |
KotCzarny | i mean data plan | 04:59 |
unixSnob | That had to be an employee plan, right? | 04:59 |
elb | at that time you couldn't, I don't think | 05:00 |
elb | no, it was a regular subscriber plan | 05:00 |
elb | I mean, I paid $40/mo for the voice line that went with it or something | 05:00 |
elb | but $10/mo additional for unlimited data | 05:00 |
elb | I tethered my laptop to it and everything | 05:00 |
unixSnob | ah, it was bundled.. that explains it | 05:00 |
KotCzarny | heh.. | 05:00 |
KotCzarny | i would love data only plan | 05:00 |

unixSnob | The $50/month would turn you off though | 05:01 |
KotCzarny | heh.. | 05:01 |
unixSnob | It's 50/mo. for unlimited data, contract free, data only | 05:01 |
KotCzarny | 10$/mon for data only would suit me very well | 05:02 |
unixSnob | (it uses the sprint network) | 05:02 |
KotCzarny | even for 256kbit or something | 05:02 |
elb | the sprint network is nice | 05:02 |
elb | if you don't have to deal with Sprint, that is | 05:02 |
unixSnob | Yeah, that's what's nice about millenicom | 05:02 |
unixSnob | They have good tech support, and because it's subcontracted through them, they don't require a contract to users | 05:03 |

pupnik | i will make a netrek package for you soon | 07:04 |
KotCzarny | just change wput to cp | 07:04 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:04 |
yllus | nice | 07:04 |
lopz | bye | 07:04 |
*** lopz has quit IRC | 07:04 | |
KotCzarny | i mean comment out wput line and create cp line | 07:05 |
lcuk | would that actually work? | 07:05 |
* lcuk was winging it - i just rememebered in the shower someone has done it | 07:05 | |
*** Zetx has joined #maemo | 07:05 | |
KotCzarny | i assume you mount ftp dir in vmware, yes? | 07:05 |
lcuk | not yet i havent | 07:05 |
lcuk | i wouldnt know where to begin | 07:05 |
* lcuk hasnt mounted any electronic equipment | 07:06 | |
KotCzarny | install sshd for windows | 07:06 |
lcuk | pupnik | 07:06 |
KotCzarny | then you could use sshfs | 07:06 |
KotCzarny | both ways | 07:06 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:06 |
KotCzarny | or scp | 07:06 |
lcuk | but if this ends up being proper ftp then i may not be able to install anything | 07:06 |
KotCzarny | ok, let's start over, what do you want to mount and where | 07:07 |
pupnik | what? | 07:07 |
lcuk | i want somewhere in linux filesystem to point at a remote ftp server | 07:07 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 07:07 |
lcuk | i have a little proposition for you.. | 07:07 |
johnx | fuse+ftpfs should do it | 07:07 |
KotCzarny | some kind of ftpfs | 07:07 |
johnx | I don't remember the real name though, let me find it... | 07:08 |
pupnik | nfs works out of the box | 07:08 |
lcuk | LUFS is a hybrid userspace filesystem framework supporting many "exotic" filesystems (localfs, sshfs, ftpfs, gnutellafs, locasefs, gvfs, cardfs, cefs, etc. ). | 07:08 |
KotCzarny | for windows? | 07:08 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:08 |
lcuk | no - needed for linux | 07:08 |
KotCzarny | that was to pupnik | 07:08 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:08 |
pupnik | ok | 07:09 |
lcuk | isnt nfs part of linux? is wasnt pupnik right? | 07:09 |
* lcuk is pretty confused right about now | 07:09 | |
johnx | lcuk, can you install ssh on this remote ftp server? or are you stuck with just ftp? | 07:09 |
KotCzarny | nfs is for *nix | 07:09 |
johnx | lufs is the old thing, fuse is the new thing | 07:09 |
lcuk | im going to assume stuck with ftp - at this moment the ftp is running on this windows box, but tomorrow that will likely change | 07:10 |
*** rsalveti has quit IRC | 07:10 | |
*** opendeep has joined #maemo | 07:10 | |
johnx | alright, curlftpfs for fuse is probably what you want/need | 07:10 |
lcuk | the box it will likely end up on will not allow me to run my own programs (i would be scared to its our webserver) | 07:10 |
*** rsalveti has joined #maemo | 07:11 | |
opendeep | hai | 07:11 |
pupnik | shark! | 07:11 |
*** shackan has quit IRC | 07:11 | |
opendeep | hi X_Fade_ | 07:12 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: does this webserver run php? | 07:12 |
*** mbuf has joined #maemo | 07:12 | |
KotCzarny | if yes, upload applet is easy | 07:12 |
lcuk | no. and im not gonna do anything to it. if i get some space i'll use it as given | 07:12 |
Navi | Heh | 07:13 |
Navi | I'd never go with a webhost/server that doesn't have ssh access | 07:13 |
lcuk | its simplest all round - i would have to explain why and what for anything other than "can you up my account" | 07:13 |
Navi | at least, if I were paying for it | 07:13 |
lcuk | (there is the other thing of me remembering all this lot when i get in and ive got bigger fish to fry tomorrow :) | 07:14 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, everything is doable | 07:14 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:14 |
Navi | I like fish | 07:14 |
Navi | Not a fan of fried fish though | 07:14 |
lcuk | ive gotta tell my boss that i know we are busy but something quite good has cropped up and its that linux thing i keep going on about. | 07:14 |
johnx | well, there are fuse packages here: http://nakkiboso.com/maemofuse/ but curlftpfs isn't built | 07:15 |
johnx | I might have a look at it, but no promises | 07:15 |
lcuk | i got curl :) sudo apt-get install curlftpfs | 07:15 |
johnx | aaah, this isn't from the tablet? | 07:15 |
johnx | aaaah...I see | 07:15 |
lcuk | no, this is the vmware box - kot has very nicely built me a script to allow me a quick dirty nightly backup from deep within the vmware onto somewhere we a couple of us can take a peek | 07:16 |
lcuk | jeeesus i havent done an all nighter since college | 07:16 |
johnx | nevermind, super easy then, curlftpfs user@ftp.example.com empty/local/dir | 07:17 |
lcuk | and is that needed on every login? | 07:17 |
johnx | nope, just until you unmount it | 07:17 |
KotCzarny | on every mount | 07:17 |
lcuk | ahhh so it will stay over a reboot? | 07:17 |
KotCzarny | yes | 07:18 |
johnx | nope, not over a reboot | 07:18 |
lcuk | phew! | 07:18 |
johnx | until a reboot | 07:18 |
lcuk | dang! | 07:18 |
lcuk | you build me up, then knock me down | 07:18 |
KotCzarny | i think you can add it to /etc/fstab | 07:18 |
johnx | just bring it up again. It's scriptable. | 07:18 |
lcuk | but i'm forgetful. i'll curse it everytime its been restarted | 07:18 |
KotCzarny | not this particular line, but mount point in general | 07:19 |
*** pdz has joined #maemo | 07:19 | |
KotCzarny | lcuk: rc.local | 07:19 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:19 |
johnx | add it to the script, pseudocode: if foo is not mounted ; mount foo ; proceed | 07:19 |
lcuk | lol but that mount line involves an ftp password which because of the script location will end up being inserted into the archive and uploaded... | 07:20 |
*** Sho_ has quit IRC | 07:20 | |
lcuk | its just forgetful to leave it in there | 07:20 |
johnx | but anyone who is on your ftp server already put in the password to get there, right? | 07:21 |
*** opendeep has quit IRC | 07:21 | |
johnx | it's like locking the key to your house inside your house... | 07:21 |
lcuk | yes, but all it takes is one slip and the wrong folder goes public | 07:21 |
johnx | fair enough | 07:21 |
johnx | do it in rc.local then | 07:22 |
lcuk | i am expecting to move binaries out fairly often | 07:22 |
*** opendeep has joined #maemo | 07:22 | |
KotCzarny | lcuk: why the script location will be inserted in archive? | 07:22 |
KotCzarny | you can make independent script | 07:22 |
KotCzarny | that will live in some other place | 07:22 |
KotCzarny | and you will only call it by name | 07:22 |
lcuk | lol - this little script has got middle aged spread! and its only an hour old :P | 07:23 |
lcuk | feature creep! | 07:23 |
KotCzarny | scripts come and go | 07:23 |
KotCzarny | on demand | 07:23 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:23 |
johnx | /etc/rc.local is where this stuff tends to go on a Unix system | 07:23 |
lcuk | have you ever read any Larry Niven books? | 07:23 |
* KotCzarny haven't | 07:24 | |
* johnx has read Ringworld and most of his short stories... | 07:24 | |
lcuk | ok, so ill get it working and tested singly - then if it works move it into /etc/rc.local | 07:24 |
johnx | sounds like a plan | 07:24 |
lcuk | johnx, have you read the mote in gods eye | 07:24 |
johnx | errr...let me think | 07:24 |
johnx | it's been a while | 07:25 |
lcuk | moties - aliens who build everything on demand and reprogram physically | 07:25 |
lcuk | sounds just like KotCzarnys scripts :) | 07:25 |
johnx | nope, haven't read it | 07:25 |
johnx | do you recommend it? | 07:25 |
lcuk | absolutely | 07:25 |
johnx | I think I have it somewhere around here O_o I'll have to look for it later | 07:26 |
lcuk | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mote_in_God's_Eye | 07:26 |
*** dick-richardson has joined #maemo | 07:26 | |
* johnx doesn't like to have anything spoiled before he reads the book | 07:26 | |
dick-richardson | can you do keyboard shortcuts? | 07:26 |
lcuk | personally? or in the system in general? | 07:27 |
johnx | I can do keyboard shortcuts | 07:27 |
dick-richardson | lcuk: system in general | 07:27 |
KotCzarny | Robert A. Heinlein, who gave the authors extensive, detailed advice on the novel, blurbed the story as "possibly the finest science fiction novel I have ever read". | 07:28 |
KotCzarny | sounds like a recommendation | 07:28 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:28 |
dick-richardson | ringing endorsement | 07:28 |
KotCzarny | maybe i should read it too | 07:29 |
KotCzarny | i have library 50m from my apartment | 07:30 |
KotCzarny | and i have never been there, yet | 07:30 |
dick-richardson | My wife works at the local library here. every now and then random books show up on my desk | 07:30 |
KotCzarny | good wife | 07:30 |
KotCzarny | good books? | 07:30 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:30 |
dick-richardson | "Oh, did i check this out?" | 07:31 |
dick-richardson | "yes, you did" | 07:31 |
dick-richardson | yeah, generally they are | 07:31 |
johnx | so, dick-richardson, what are you trying to use a keyboard shortcut for? | 07:31 |
dick-richardson | my webmail password | 07:31 |
*** pdz- has quit IRC | 07:31 | |
KotCzarny | o.o | 07:31 |
KotCzarny | use firefox? | 07:31 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:31 |
rm_you | johnx: hi :P | 07:32 |
johnx | so you want to hit (for example) ctrl+p and have it key in your password? | 07:32 |
johnx | hey rm_you :D | 07:32 |
dick-richardson | you got it | 07:32 |
johnx | hmm, and the built-in microb "remember this password" thing isn't working for you? | 07:32 |
*** smackpotato has joined #maemo | 07:33 | |
dick-richardson | I'm trying a little security through obscurity | 07:33 |
dick-richardson | it works alright, but I'm not using it | 07:33 |
KotCzarny | security through obscurity isn't recommended.. | 07:33 |
johnx | ah ok. you're probably better off just using the "remember password" thing though. That way you don't have random "sensitive" files scattered all over the system... | 07:34 |
johnx | also, it would be somewhat difficult to do something like that. | 07:34 |
johnx | What would you describe your "comfort level" with the command line and a cross compiler as? | 07:34 |
*** ralann has joined #maemo | 07:34 | |
dick-richardson | fairly good | 07:35 |
dick-richardson | which means I'm very comfortable, but probably shouldn't be :P | 07:35 |
*** vivijim has joined #maemo | 07:36 | |
johnx | alright, you'll probably need to compile yourself some app which sits in the background and listens for that key combo, then spits out some text | 07:36 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 07:36 |
KotCzarny | osk can help | 07:36 |
KotCzarny | xkbd/xvkbd has an option for strings too | 07:36 |
KotCzarny | so making a simple layout with one button should work | 07:37 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:37 |
lcuk | or notices you have drawn an X and placed thumb over it | 07:37 |
johnx | kind of the opposite of obscure | 07:37 |
lcuk | security through flashy login script | 07:38 |
KotCzarny | :> | 07:38 |
johnx | :D security through "movie-style" special effects | 07:38 |
dick-richardson | lol! | 07:38 |
KotCzarny | 'please cough three times' | 07:38 |
lcuk | yer, we can simulate a fingerprint scanner | 07:38 |
lcuk | no1 would know and it would be way cool | 07:38 |
johnx | heh...place a random thumb here: approved! | 07:39 |
lcuk | actually detect pressure patterns but dont tell n00b that ;) | 07:39 |
johnx | (hint: doesn't have to be your thumb. In an emergency, any thumb shaped object can be used.) | 07:39 |
KotCzarny | 'now press your forehead firmly to the screen' | 07:39 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 07:39 |
lcuk | so when you do it it says "LOGIN ACCEPTED" but when they try it it doesnt | 07:39 |
johnx | ...for the brain scan | 07:39 |
lcuk | PMSL | 07:39 |
KotCzarny | pms? | 07:40 |
lcuk | pissing myself.. | 07:40 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:40 |
lcuk | i nearly woke missus up | 07:40 |
KotCzarny | close to pms | 07:40 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:40 |
lcuk | jees this has been a while | 07:40 |
dick-richardson | I'm still stuck on the "thumb shaped object" criteria | 07:40 |
GeneralAntilles | I want video game challenges as a login method. | 07:41 |
GeneralAntilles | Land this 747! | 07:41 |
dick-richardson | Well, we couldn't get into the device, but then Jim got real excited by the technology and what do you know! | 07:42 |
KotCzarny | and the thing is to bang the rocks together guys! | 07:42 |
*** avs has joined #maemo | 07:42 | |
*** _V_ has joined #maemo | 07:43 | |
dick-richardson | you know...just having the system remember the password w/o that last character is what i'm looking for | 07:43 |
lcuk | lol @ steering convo back on topic | 07:44 |
johnx | that would be a lot more secure then storing in plain-text...I kinda like that idea :) | 07:44 |
lcuk | then just do it without last letter and say yes to remembering | 07:44 |
dick-richardson | yep | 07:44 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, but later it will remember proper pass | 07:44 |
KotCzarny | it uses last entered one | 07:44 |
lcuk | no, later it will ask and you can say no feck off | 07:44 |
KotCzarny | probably | 07:45 |
lcuk | firefox or micrapola? | 07:45 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:45 |
dick-richardson | option 2 | 07:45 |
lcuk | we have multiple gmail accounts and one is defaulted, the rest are set as dont remember | 07:45 |
lcuk | i havent tried logging in from the device | 07:46 |
lcuk | and i would never leave any of the passwords in :S | 07:46 |
lcuk | since the whole device is unsecure its open to abuse. | 07:46 |
KotCzarny | yes | 07:46 |
KotCzarny | that's true | 07:46 |
dick-richardson | it does remember the last one used :( | 07:46 |
lcuk | (why havent we got password protection for the device?) | 07:46 |
dick-richardson | truecrypt was made for this thing | 07:47 |
KotCzarny | good idea | 07:47 |
KotCzarny | initfs is there anyway | 07:47 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, locking? | 07:47 |
KotCzarny | the only problem is to fit it there | 07:47 |
lcuk | can it open locked though? | 07:47 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:47 |
lcuk | as in reboot and auto lock | 07:47 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: probably | 07:47 |
lcuk | then that will do it | 07:47 |
KotCzarny | if not sdk is there | 07:48 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:48 |
GeneralAntilles | Once you lock it, it stays locked until you unlock it. | 07:48 |
GeneralAntilles | Even if you flash it. | 07:48 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 07:48 |
lcuk | stops casual ppl - like i was saying about any security app, the chances that a crook would actually know specifically to re-flash this device immediately makes me want to just upload a picture everytime it is booted or the keyboard slides open | 07:48 |
dick-richardson | are you talking about the hardware switch? | 07:48 |
KotCzarny | another method of unlocking: 'draw a flower to proceed' | 07:48 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:48 |
lcuk | ooooh GeneralAntilles i didnt know that.. | 07:49 |
GeneralAntilles | No | 07:49 |
GeneralAntilles | Press the power button | 07:49 |
GeneralAntilles | "Lock device" | 07:49 |
dick-richardson | what do you know\ | 07:49 |
lcuk | awww why cant we slide like the posh kids? | 07:49 |
dick-richardson | what's the default code? | 07:49 |
GeneralAntilles | 12345 | 07:49 |
lcuk | this is from the menu that comes up on power isnt it | 07:50 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, we have sdk | 07:50 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:50 |
dick-richardson | I must have found it and changed it already | 07:50 |
dick-richardson | alcohol was probably involved | 07:51 |
lcuk | that menu is designed all wrong. when you are putting it away you dont want to fiddle and have to aim for a tiny dot. selectors should be big and finger friendly | 07:51 |
lcuk | so now your device is locked? | 07:51 |
lcuk | forever? | 07:51 |
GeneralAntilles | That's what the dpad is for, lcuk. :P | 07:51 |
lcuk | or until you find the combination | 07:51 |
GeneralAntilles | But your device sucks ass, and it has the dpad in exactly the wrong spot. ;) | 07:51 |
GeneralAntilles | It requires you to enter the lock to lock it. | 07:51 |
GeneralAntilles | s/lock/code/ | 07:51 |
infobot | GeneralAntilles meant: It requires you to enter the code to lock it. | 07:52 |
lcuk | ok, power button slide down down down dpad. instead of power button BOOM! | 07:52 |
dick-richardson | it's my ssn...wow was that stupid | 07:52 |
KotCzarny | lol | 07:52 |
GeneralAntilles | Hehe | 07:52 |
GeneralAntilles | That's how I memorized mine. | 07:53 |
GeneralAntilles | Used it as a local password for a few weeks. | 07:53 |

GeneralAntilles | Your serial number. <_< | 07:54 |
dick-richardson | can you change the sliding lock to lock the device? | 07:54 |
*** christefano has joined #maemo | 07:54 | |
GeneralAntilles | dick-richardson, if so, it'd be in /etc/mce/mce.ini | 07:54 |
GeneralAntilles | But I don't think so at the moment. | 07:55 |
lcuk | that would be a cool toy for the desktop - slide over the area to lock | 07:55 |
dick-richardson | kk, thank you | 07:55 |
GeneralAntilles | If not, you could always file an enhancement request on bugzilla. | 07:55 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, have you doubled pixel size in drawing mode? | 07:55 |
KotCzarny | and it's shadowy | 07:56 |
lcuk | coloring.. | 07:56 |
KotCzarny | yes, i enabled it | 07:56 |
KotCzarny | :) | 07:56 |
KotCzarny | or is it feature of yuv colorspace? | 07:57 |
lcuk | yuv is 800*480 greyscale, 400*240 color information, its a halfway house (basically jpeg resolution) | 07:57 |
KotCzarny | hum | 07:58 |
lcuk | its more noticable than i would have liked on certain colors but its good enough for now. | 07:58 |
KotCzarny | it will need some antialiasing then | 07:58 |
*** Ikkakujyu has quit IRC | 07:59 | |
lcuk | it depends upon which grey level it is at - the brighter it is, the clearer it shows | 07:59 |
KotCzarny | yes | 08:00 |
KotCzarny | but dark green is also very noticeable | 08:00 |
* lcuk nods and its also the brightest color | 08:00 | |
KotCzarny | have you tried blurring? | 08:01 |
*** eichi has joined #maemo | 08:02 | |
lcuk | ive not tried anything yet - i just put in the colored line routine and played for a while | 08:02 |
KotCzarny | it would work better than plain half-brightness shadow | 08:02 |
KotCzarny | (i guess) | 08:02 |
lcuk | are you able to compile or just looking through? | 08:03 |
*** Cptnodegard has joined #maemo | 08:03 | |

dick-richardson | i wish modest would load inline html images...I can't see my daily dilbert :( | 08:04 |
KotCzarny | yes | 08:04 |
KotCzarny | that's what i have enabled | 08:04 |
lcuk | is your touch still jumpy? | 08:09 |
KotCzarny | yes | 08:09 |
lcuk | thats when your light and gentle | 08:09 |
KotCzarny | also drawing is slower | 08:09 |
KotCzarny | i'm looking through the code where are you keeping pressure | 08:09 |
lcuk | each stroke has a set of points. each point has an x/y/z | 08:10 |
lcuk | z=pressure | 08:10 |
GeneralAntilles | I thought that bug was fixed. | 08:10 |
KotCzarny | k | 08:10 |

GeneralAntilles | You up to date, dick-richardson? | 08:10 |
lcuk | i think thats the last file thats #included inline | 08:11 |

unixSnob | my swords are actually extremely dull | 09:00 |
unixSnob | just for show | 09:00 |
KotCzarny | dull weapons can hurt too | 09:00 |
unixSnob | yeah, it's almost as dull as a bat | 09:00 |
unixSnob | so I guess it would have the effect of a club | 09:00 |

GeneralAntilles | It's covered pretty well on the ITT forums. | 09:21 |
GeneralAntilles | Not really worth the effort, though. | 09:21 |
GeneralAntilles | Very unstable. | 09:21 |
johnx | if you want to try an alternative browser give midori a shot | 09:22 |
GeneralAntilles | Was midori every rebuilt to use the optimized webkit? | 09:22 |
johnx | i dunno | 09:22 |
*** Cptn-N800 has joined #Maemo | 09:22 | |
johnx | do you have a link to this "optimized webkit" | 09:22 |

*** NetBlade has joined #maemo | 09:25 | |
EruditeHermit | midori is in extras? | 09:26 |
Navi | No | 09:26 |
johnx | errr...the other libwebkit is | 09:26 |
johnx | midori is on itt | 09:26 |
Navi | just install libwebkit | 09:26 |
johnx | I imagine it and webkit that midori depends on will conflict | 09:26 |
Navi | you don't have to specifically build midori against a webkit revision unless the API changed. | 09:26 |
johnx | that's what I figured. I'll have a poke at midori's 'control' | 09:27 |
GeneralAntilles | It's too bad all the 3rd party browsers still suck. | 09:27 |
Navi | not links :D | 09:27 |
johnx | Midori has a lot of potential, Mr. Optimism | 09:27 |
GeneralAntilles | Well, links. . . | 09:27 |

KotCzarny | :> | 09:29 |
johnx | KotCzarny, get to work on your WinMo emulator :P | 09:29 |
KotCzarny | i prefer playing with some nice code | 09:29 |
GeneralAntilles | I suspect MicroB will be setting the bar quite high in Diablo. | 09:29 |
KotCzarny | johnx, expect great things | 09:29 |
KotCzarny | :) | 09:29 |
johnx | I'll "wait and see" but I'm pretty happy with the direction webkit-gtk is going | 09:30 |
* Navi uses it on the desktop | 09:30 | |
KotCzarny | nah, i'm talking about something else right now | 09:30 |
Navi | Snappy stuff | 09:30 |
johnx | it will get a lot more attention since it will be the html renderer of choice for gnome/gtk apps I think | 09:30 |
* Navi shrugs | 09:31 | |
johnx | by attention I mean optimizations :) | 09:31 |
Navi | webkitqt's included in the QT4 | 09:31 |
GeneralAntilles | Anybody try the Qt demo app? | 09:31 |
Navi | and webkitgtk's rapidly made improvements | 09:32 |
johnx | is there a lightweight qt based browser built on webkit that *doesn't* suck in all of kde as a dependency? | 09:32 |
GeneralAntilles | It's incredibly snappy. | 09:32 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 09:32 |
KotCzarny | webkit is from apple? | 09:32 |
Navi | johnx, doubt it | 09:32 |
KotCzarny | or some independent project? | 09:32 |
johnx | KotCzarny, from KDE originally, now Apple is a big contributor | 09:32 |
KotCzarny | uhum | 09:32 |
KotCzarny | that's good | 09:32 |
Navi | EETZ A FORQUE | 09:32 |
johnx | eh? | 09:33 |
Navi | khtml forke | 09:33 |
Navi | s/forke/fork/ | 09:33 |
infobot | Navi meant: khtml fork | 09:33 |
KotCzarny | maybe some nice build script to statically compile in kde libs | 09:33 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 09:33 |
johnx | aaah...I misinterpreted EETZ as "eats" | 09:33 |
Navi | Pfft | 09:33 |
johnx | I kind of pictured Navi with a fork stuck out of his mouth flailing at the keyboard | 09:33 |
GeneralAntilles | That's how I always picture Navi. | 09:34 |
GeneralAntilles | johnx, did you every figure out the top 3 things we need for Debian-maemo? | 09:35 |
*** BabelO has joined #maemo | 09:35 | |
johnx | I'm not sure what to put for that actually...I'm really torn | 09:36 |
johnx | dsme/bme/dsp would sure be nice for Debian on N800 | 09:37 |
EruditeHermit | I just wish the browsers were faster | 09:37 |
GeneralAntilles | Diablo, EruditeHermit. | 09:37 |
johnx | but to get Maemo stuff into Debian, the top couple deps that all Maemo packages have would be nice | 09:37 |
GeneralAntilles | MicroB is a really old snapshot of Gecko 1.9. | 09:37 |
GeneralAntilles | There've been HUGE speedups since the version we have. | 09:38 |
EruditeHermit | yeah but I think they should make them available as they release | 09:38 |
johnx | that's not Nokia's style :) | 09:38 |
EruditeHermit | or atleast have the page on garage so that we can test stuff | 09:38 |
GeneralAntilles | One more downfall of bundling software. | 09:38 |
GeneralAntilles | You could build the svn. | 09:38 |
GeneralAntilles | Though, apparently, it depends on bc-dev | 09:38 |
GeneralAntilles | which doesn't actually exist anywhere. | 09:39 |
GeneralAntilles | EruditeHermit, Diablo also means "over-the-air" updates | 09:39 |
EruditeHermit | yeah | 09:39 |
GeneralAntilles | so that decouples application updates from big firmware updates. | 09:39 |
GeneralAntilles | I'm not sure if that'll bring us back to the pre-OS2007 update frequency for MicroB | 09:40 |
EruditeHermit | chinook was supposed to be that | 09:40 |
EruditeHermit | lol | 09:40 |
GeneralAntilles | But it should improve things. | 09:40 |
GeneralAntilles | No it wasn't. | 09:40 |

jaska | could probably hosts-ify my desktop opera blacklist | 09:49 |
GeneralAntilles | Pay attention to the Modest progress. | 09:49 |

EruditeHermit | it'd be nice if they updated flash with microB | 10:09 |
EruditeHermit | do you think they'll do that? | 10:09 |
johnx | no idea. is it just a minor version bump? | 10:10 |
EruditeHermit | for flash? | 10:10 |
EruditeHermit | yes | 10:10 |
EruditeHermit | but it has some major fixes/feature updates | 10:10 |
EruditeHermit | although its really slow | 10:10 |
johnx | ah | 10:10 |
EruditeHermit | major compatibility fixes with websites that require latest flash | 10:10 |
EruditeHermit | but its slower than the older version on my desktop atleast =p | 10:10 |
johnx | ick | 10:11 |
EruditeHermit | yeah | 10:11 |
johnx | "flash" and "slower than before" is always bad to hear | 10:11 |

scibot | Hi guys, I have openssh-server running on my tablet but I can't seem to access it from my desktop. | 11:26 |
scibot | It responds to ping, so it isn't that sort of connectivity issue. =/ | 11:27 |
johnx | you get connection refused or your password doesn't work? | 11:27 |
scibot | It doesn't connect at all. | 11:27 |
scibot | No response from the server that I can tell. | 11:27 |
scibot | The ssh client just sits there waiting for a response, but none comes. | 11:28 |
johnx | how long have you let it sit? | 11:28 |
johnx | you should either get "ssh 192.168.1.111" and you get "No route to host" or "connection refused" eventually, I would think... | 11:28 |
johnx | have you tried nmap? | 11:28 |
mbuf | it happens with dropbear as well onN810; most of the time it doesn't respond to ssh requests from the PC | 11:29 |
mbuf | earlier in the N800, i was able to do maximum of 3 ssh connections only from the PC to the device | 11:30 |
johnx | mbuf, when it doesn't respond to ssh, is it able to respond to pings? | 11:30 |
scibot | Debug from the client - http://pasteall.org/389 | 11:31 |
mbuf | johnx, yes | 11:31 |
mbuf | johnx, if i restart dropbear, "/etc/init.d/dropbear restart"; then after few seconds it responds | 11:31 |
mbuf | johnx, but, if the connection is inactive for a period of time, the ssh connection on Eterm on the PC just hangs | 11:31 |
johnx | I've started having my ssh client on PC send keep-alives every 45 seconds with good effect | 11:32 |

KotCzarny | i mean ssh -d | 11:40 |
scibot | ? | 11:40 |

KotCzarny | you will see what it is doing | 11:40 |
scibot | No such flag exists for my ssh client. | 11:41 |
scibot | <scibot> Debug from the client - http://pasteall.org/389 | 11:41 |
solmumaha | i had the same symptom when my dns servers were acting up and setting UseDNS no helps in that case | 11:41 |

KotCzarny | .196 is some local machine other ? | 11:43 |
scibot | Only additional line, debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0 | 11:43 |
KotCzarny | and solmumaha may be right | 11:43 |
scibot | It's a semi-local machine, runs through a couple of routers that propogate the wireless signal further, but it responds to ping from the same spot I'm trying to use my ssh client from. | 11:43 |

scibot | Can't, dynamic IP. | 11:46 |
solmumaha | yes, did you remember to restart sshd after the change? | 11:46 |
scibot | Of course. | 11:46 |
solmumaha | k | 11:47 |
KotCzarny | scibot, it's local ip | 11:47 |
KotCzarny | just try adding it for a test | 11:47 |
scibot | That's more complicated than you think it is. | 11:47 |
KotCzarny | :) | 11:47 |
KotCzarny | do you have local dns server? | 11:48 |

Mikho | a question: | 14:55 |
Mikho | what is the right way to make it possible for the application to write to it's own data files? | 14:56 |
Mikho | I have the app installed in /usr/share/<appname> but I just realized it can't create log files or modify its own conf file | 14:57 |
*** celesteh has joined #maemo | 14:58 | |
johnx | usually log files and user-specific conf goes into /home/user/.<your-app-name> | 14:58 |
Mikho | if I don't want user-specific conf, but app-specific? | 14:58 |
*** eton has joined #maemo | 14:59 | |
johnx | well, generally anything that is changeable by the user at run-time is considered user specific conf | 14:59 |
*** bilboed-tp has joined #maemo | 15:00 | |
Mikho | so there's really no good way for a program to modify its own data files? | 15:00 |
Mikho | without making copies to every user's home directory | 15:01 |
johnx | I think the "copy to $HOME" seems to be how most Unix programs handle it | 15:02 |
*** MoRpHeUz has joined #maemo | 15:02 | |
Mikho | I don't like the idea, but if there's no choice... | 15:02 |
johnx | well, they're is always a choice... | 15:03 |
johnx | I'm just saying how I've *seen* other apps do it | 15:03 |
johnx | you could just make your data files world writeable | 15:03 |
jesh | or group writeable | 15:03 |
jesh | or make a setuid program to edit them | 15:03 |
johnx | is 'user' in any groups by default, besides dialout, video and audio? | 15:04 |
johnx | either way, you could add 'user' to a group and make the data file only editable by people in that group | 15:04 |
Mikho | i see | 15:04 |
johnx | it's all kind of acedemic as there is basically no way to add another user on the tablet | 15:05 |
Mikho | oh, I didn't know that | 15:05 |
johnx | Unless you're incredibly worried about Unix correctness, making your data files world-writeable and writeable by user only are pretty much the same thing on OS2008 | 15:06 |
johnx | I don't see Nokia changing their "single user" approach any time soon, but I don't have any inside info, so I can't be sure | 15:06 |

zxula | the applications and everything seem to work fine | 16:28 |
johnx | definitely sounds like something went pretty wrong, If you launch an app from the terminal does it complain about missing theme images or something helpful? | 16:29 |

zxula | some binaries I made | 16:29 |
zxula | nop it doesn't it loads it fine | 16:29 |

johnx | if you try to select a theme from the menu on the home screen what happens? | 16:30 |
zxula | also I noticed it doesn't save my startup applet setup it always bails back to the default so I'm guessing it could be a permission problem on the jffs2 fs that I made? | 16:30 |

* lcuk goes back to work | 17:12 | |
zxula | hrw: yea they limit the sources to the driver too | 17:13 |
johnx | hrw, What problem are you having with WPA? You've seen that patch that adds a little bit of wext support, right? | 17:13 |
hrw | johnx: I booted Poky on 770. we use 2.6.18 (from os2007-n800) on it. I even have modules for wifi which loads into kernel | 17:13 |
hrw | johnx: I used cx3110x 1.2 sources | 17:13 |
johnx | so that incorporates the wext patch? | 17:13 |
zxula | that's only a limited subset of the drivers :/ | 17:13 |
*** hfwilke has quit IRC | 17:13 | |
johnx | true, but it's enough for wpa_supplicant (for the n800 at least) | 17:14 |
zxula | yea for his case it is but if you wanna do other stuff it's not | 17:14 |
zxula | like support writing tx packets while the card is in monitor mode | 17:14 |
johnx | ah, the famous "packet injection" :) | 17:14 |
zxula | I was disassembling the propriator module that they use and it's entirely based on the prism drivers | 17:15 |
zxula | even the function names are the same | 17:16 |
hrw | zxula: which prism drivers? I know atleast 3 | 17:16 |
*** shackan has joined #maemo | 17:16 | |
zxula | I mean doing the mod for the prism like drivers isn't hard | 17:16 |
hrw | orinoco, hostap, wlan-ng | 17:16 |
zxula | prism2 I think | 17:16 |
zxula | oh wlan-ng | 17:16 |
hrw | wlan-ng is the worst shit when it comes to drivers | 17:16 |
*** trbs has quit IRC | 17:17 | |
hrw | open drivers of course | 17:17 |
johnx | isn't wlan-ng GPL'ed? | 17:17 |
zxula | but even if you modify the lkm directly or setup hooks into them you'd still be violating the users license agreement | 17:17 |
hrw | johnx: about wext patch - no idea | 17:17 |
jobu | have any of you tried putting android on an n800? | 17:17 |
Blafasel | zxula: I wouldn't care about that if that would give me more wlan features.. | 17:18 |
zxula | Blafasel: as a user sure, but posting such a thing will get you into trouble | 17:18 |
zxula | I went back and forth telling them what to do and they denied doing it | 17:19 |
zxula | I mean the mods are a joke | 17:19 |
zxula | to add support for it | 17:19 |
*** trbs has joined #maemo | 17:19 | |
johnx | hrw, maybe, I'm confused about what you're talking about, but there is a patch here, that seems to add enough wext support for me to use wpa_supplicant on an N800: https://garage.maemo.org/pipermail/cx3110x-devel/2007-November/000005.html | 17:20 |
hrw | johnx: as usual with maemo stuff all you can get from google contain irclogs or forum posts. | 17:20 |
hrw | someone should host garage.maemo.org on better link and give google access | 17:20 |
*** Dar has quit IRC | 17:21 | |
*** lopz has quit IRC | 17:22 | |
Blafasel | zxula: Not for me, I fear. But maybe it's worth looking at them. | 17:22 |
monkeyiq | hmm, I might try googling around for WPA2 patches for the n810. | 17:23 |
*** jegp has quit IRC | 17:23 | |
*** lopz has joined #maemo | 17:23 | |
johnx | monkeyiq, What kind of network are you trying to join with it? | 17:23 |
monkeyiq | johnx; I join a WPA2 | 17:23 |
monkeyiq | johnx; but its rather slower than I'd like | 17:23 |
monkeyiq | I've not looked into what is handing the en/decryption on the 810, but whatever it is, it is very slow. | 17:24 |
johnx | it would probably be handled on the CPU, right? | 17:24 |
monkeyiq | I'm tempted to see what speed I can get on a non encrypted AP using ssh tunneling and firewailling on the router to block non ssh traffic | 17:25 |
monkeyiq | johnx; yeah 100% cpu load at the peak 500kbyte/sec | 17:25 |
*** lardman is now known as lardman|gone | 17:25 | |
johnx | sounds about right | 17:25 |
johnx | Somehow I don't see ssh being faster... | 17:25 |
monkeyiq | I can scp to localhost on the n810 at 1mb/sec | 17:26 |
johnx | right, but just using the wireless card unencrypted takes CPU time | 17:26 |
johnx | but sure, go ahead and test it. I'd be interested in the results | 17:26 |
monkeyiq | also, a tinc VPN ontop of WPA2 can run almost at 400kbyte/sec | 17:27 |
zxula | monkeyiq: it will avg at 250k/s on an open ap with sftp | 17:27 |
monkeyiq | zxula; hmm so sftp is 50% slower than WPA2? | 17:27 |
zxula | no idea that's on a 54mbs router between the n810 and my laptop | 17:28 |
*** legind has quit IRC | 17:28 | |
zxula | i sftp from my laptop into the n810 | 17:28 |
zxula | it starts at 450k then drops down to 250k | 17:28 |
monkeyiq | hmm, can you easily test what a wget from a web server can give you with no encryption? | 17:29 |
*** vivijim has joined #maemo | 17:29 | |
hrw | johnx: thx | 17:29 |
monkeyiq | I'd be interested to see what overhead the ssh is giving you | 17:29 |
zxula | ok 1sec but there are so many factors that may delay it | 17:29 |
zxula | I'll try it on my lan | 17:29 |
johnx | hrw, you think that will work with the 770? If so I'll update my wiki | 17:29 |
monkeyiq | I tested it with just d/loading a 10mb junk file created with dd | 17:30 |
zxula | 450k/s | 17:30 |
monkeyiq | hmm, interesting... so you don't actually seem to get any speed advantage at all not using WPA2 | 17:30 |
zxula | don't think | 17:31 |
hrw | johnx: same fault | 17:31 |
zxula | I mean the processing power to do the wpa2 stuff is minimal I guess | 17:31 |
zxula | or not worth worrying about | 17:32 |
hrw | johnx: still crash | 17:32 |
monkeyiq | sort of a shame if you want to scp 600mb of oggs to the n810 at the last minute before heading out. having to dig up the usb cable or wait for 500kb/sec :/ | 17:32 |
johnx | hrw, that's interesting. wpa_supplicant certainly complained when I used it, but it worked. | 17:32 |
monkeyiq | zxula; I was sort of afraid of that, given that I can run ssh or tinc ontop of the WPA2 stuff and still see 350-400kb/s | 17:32 |
hrw | root@nokia770:~# wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf | 17:33 |
hrw | ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: No such device | 17:33 |
hrw | REBOOT | 17:33 |
johnx | reboot?! | 17:33 |
hrw | device self reboot | 17:33 |
johnx | ok, that didn't happen to me on the N800 | 17:34 |
johnx | have you disabled watchdog reboots? | 17:34 |
hrw | n800 has other wifi chip | 17:34 |
hrw | johnx: no | 17:34 |
*** lopz has quit IRC | 17:34 | |
*** zpol has joined #maemo | 17:34 | |
*** ab has quit IRC | 17:34 | |
zxula | oh btw if you're doing long transfers the ssh will die if you don't manually set the power management to off | 17:35 |
johnx | zxula, it doesn't here. I would assume it depends on the router | 17:35 |
zxula | even if you put in the connection settings power management off it will set the power management to on on it's on | 17:35 |
zxula | on/own | 17:35 |
monkeyiq | hmm, I've only tried to xfer files up to about 700mb over scp | 17:35 |
zxula | I had to explicitly set iwconfig wlan0 power off | 17:35 |
zxula | johnx: that's true I haven't had this issue with my old router it sends a keep alive or something | 17:36 |
monkeyiq | and I've got power mgmt=on here. | 17:36 |
zxula | yea your router must be good then | 17:36 |
monkeyiq | though I might experiment with that, I had a longer NFS xfer die unexpectedly on me. Though I thought that might have been a flow control issue | 17:37 |
johnx | that being said, if I send enough *from* the N800 it's wireless connection will eventually die and need to be brought up again | 17:37 |
zxula | yea you need iwconfig wlan0 power off | 17:38 |
zxula | i don't know if there is a way to programatically take control of this | 17:38 |
zxula | through dbus maybe | 17:38 |
Blafasel | Regarding the wifi drivers again: If they are basically using a prism GPL driver, aren't they forced to disclose the source? | 17:38 |
*** hfwilke has joined #maemo | 17:38 | |
monkeyiq | zxula: dbus might be the go | 17:38 |
monkeyiq | zxula; I bring up tinc using dbus to respond to connection up msgs | 17:39 |
zxula | oh cool | 17:39 |
*** Blain has joined #maemo | 17:39 | |
monkeyiq | zxula; check out these http://www.cobb.uk.net/770/#dbus-scripts | 17:39 |
johnx | Blafasel, They are dual licensed (at least 2 licenses...) MPL and GPL2 | 17:41 |
zxula | looks like dbus might be a way to disable the power management | 17:42 |
monkeyiq | yeah, should be fairly quick to brew a little script with that link too. | 17:42 |
Blafasel | johnx: Ah, ok. Sad. | 17:43 |
johnx | yeah, I was wondering about that too. :/ | 17:43 |
johnx | anyways, off to bed | 17:43 |
jott | maybe there are still gpl2-only parts in it... hm | 17:44 |
johnx | jott, it looks like "AbsoluteValue Systems, Inc" retains all rights, so they could just license it however they want | 17:44 |

* jott vanishes again | 17:48 | |
zxula | but you can write up a script in ELF diff script for that matter | 17:48 |

konttori | ukmp is a hack. The postinst is a convenience for me. | 18:07 |

Khertan_n810 | zerodegre > obviously i found the gps terribly slow to get signals... and never use it since i ve understood that it need 15min from a cold start to be ready | 20:52 |
Khertan_n810 | and in my car it s more hours ... | 20:53 |

elb | Europeans seem to have a lot more trouble with the GPS than Americans | 20:54 |

elb | zerodegre: for maemo mapper, you can select a center and a radius and snag maps | 20:55 |
zerodegre | elb. how do i do that? | 20:55 |
elb | it's in the documentation, perhaps even the FAQ | 20:55 |

*** bergie has joined #maemo | 20:57 | |
florian | bbl | 20:57 |
elb | but there are certainly GPS receivers which work fine in Europe | 20:57 |
Khertan_n810 | so need new device | 20:57 |
elb | the n810 just doesn't seem to be one of them ;-) | 20:57 |
*** florian has quit IRC | 20:57 | |
elb | note that this is entirely empirical observation, I have no understanding of why this might be -- although GPS is more difficult to use in high latitudes | 20:57 |
lcuk | gps works for me as long as i hold aloft my mighty 810 and worship the sun god (for upto 30 minutes facing north) | 20:58 |
lcuk | gps works at any altitude, and infact the heigher you are the more sats are in clear view | 20:58 |
glass | n95's gps sucks bigtime if the assist isn't enabled | 20:58 |
elb | I said *latitude*, not altitude | 20:59 |
Khertan_n810 | in fact none gps receiver work in my car | 20:59 |
*** _V_ has quit IRC | 20:59 | |
lcuk | lol @ misreading | 20:59 |
elb | as you near the poles, GPS becomes more problematic | 20:59 |
lcuk | but still, nope there are some in a polar orbit as well as other directions | 20:59 |
*** b0unc3_ is now known as b0unc3 | 20:59 | |
elb | but still, yeah, it's the truth | 21:00 |
elb | I think maybe because the poles are farther from the satellites on average | 21:00 |
lcuk | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:ConstellationGPS.gif | 21:00 |
elb | (the Earth is not spherical) | 21:00 |
elb | it could also have to do with atmospheric conditions, however | 21:00 |
elb | I know what the constellation looks like, I'm telling you that this is a fact of GPS operation | 21:00 |
lcuk | earth doesnt have to be spherical - more likely localised buildings as well | 21:01 |
elb | in fact, it's one of the reasons the EU wants to put up its own constellation | 21:01 |
lcuk | i thought it was just so that they werent reliant upon america | 21:01 |
elb | (look up Galileo) | 21:01 |
elb | that's one reason, yes | 21:01 |
Khertan_n810 | hu ! can't use google tanslation tool on my n810 | 21:02 |
lcuk | oooh yer: better positioning services at high latitudes | 21:02 |
elb | anyway, I don't know if that's related | 21:02 |
Khertan_n810 | there are saying that my request look like an automated request that could be do by a virus | 21:02 |
elb | but I do know that a lot of American n810 users say it works fine for them, and I've never seen a European say so :-) | 21:03 |
elb | perhaps it simply assumes a US starting position, and so US cold starts are quicker | 21:03 |
lcuk | doesnt make sense for a european company | 21:03 |
elb | I agree | 21:04 |
elb | although the US may be their largest market for ITs | 21:04 |
elb | I don't get that impression from this channel, but I don't know | 21:04 |
Khertan_n810 | a will said more : no sense for a european company where the main market is europe | 21:04 |
elb | but all of my speculations are just that -- speculation | 21:05 |
elb | it's simply a trend I have noticed | 21:05 |
Khertan_n810 | in europe nokia is the leader on phone :) | 21:05 |

elb | I think that may be true worldwide | 21:05 |
elb | now that Motorola was ground into the dirt | 21:06 |
glass | Khertan_n810: dunno if europe is 'main' market anymore, asia and emerging markets take a lot of the business volume | 21:06 |
elb | although one of the Asian companies may hold that title | 21:06 |
*** Khertan_n810 has quit IRC | 21:06 | |
glass | they are biggest worldwide | 21:06 |
glass | nokia that is | 21:06 |
glass | 40% | 21:06 |
lcuk | elb, your observation may infact be valid for this device. it could simply be that suboptimal antenna location/choice could make what should be a standard worldwide chip solution into something that is indeed flakey when things go off the yellow brick road | 21:07 |
glass | n95's antenna is under the keypad.. so you have to keep the device open | 21:08 |
glass | dunno where the antenna is in n810 | 21:08 |

KotCzarny | hmm | 22:29 |
dougt | has anyone used GDK_AXIS_PRESSURE to discover the touchscreen pressure of a gtk event? | 22:29 |

mgedmin | dougt: no, but if you're looking for working source code, grep in the fbreader tree | 22:38 |
mgedmin | also, don't trust the value too much | 22:38 |
dougt | thanks. the microb source is what I am looking at. | 22:39 |
mgedmin | there were long threads and ugly workarounds mentioned on the fbreader mailing list | 22:39 |
* dougt nods | 22:39 | |
mgedmin | apparently the hardware itself sometimes has trouble distinguishing thumb presses from stylus events | 22:39 |
dougt | hildon has specific helpers | 22:39 |

mgedmin | as a user I've given up a long time ago and no longer even try to use finger presses | 22:40 |

mgedmin | fwiw the hildon_button_event_is_finger is half of the solution, iirc the other half is to indicate that your widget wants to get the pressure information via some sort of event mask | 22:42 |
mgedmin | I'm fuzzy on the details | 22:42 |
*** playya has quit IRC | 22:44 | |
dougt | mgedmin: so, i can get pressure data if I use X directly. | 22:45 |
dougt | that seems to work fine, but I don't process X events in my application | 22:45 |
mgedmin | um... ? | 22:45 |
mgedmin | what does your app do then? | 22:46 |
dougt | i mean. | 22:46 |
dougt | it is a Gtk Application | 22:46 |
dougt | i setup callbacks, ect | 22:46 |
dougt | i am not doing while(1) { XEventsQueued(), xnexevent...} | 22:47 |
dougt | mgedmin: http://test.maemo.org/maemowiki/HOWTO_UseTouchscreenPressureData | 22:47 |
dougt | ^^ this more or less works fine. | 22:47 |
dougt | you get different values depending on how hard you strick the display | 22:47 |
mgedmin | Gtk is the way to process X events :-) | 22:47 |
dougt | exactly!! ;-) | 22:47 |
mgedmin | well, gdk is the part of gtk that abstracts X for you, afaiu | 22:47 |
dougt | i want to do something like: | 22:48 |
dougt | http://pastebin.mozilla.org/399787 | 22:48 |
mgedmin | right | 22:49 |
*** matt_c has quit IRC | 22:50 | |
mgedmin | dougt: does it work then? | 22:50 |
dougt | no. | 22:50 |
mgedmin | if not, then maybe you also need to call gdk_input_set_extension_events on the window where you're registering your button callback | 22:50 |
*** zwnj has quit IRC | 22:51 | |
dougt | maybe you can't get pressure data on a button? | 22:51 |
dougt | that is an idea. | 22:51 |
* dougt tries. | 22:51 | |
mgedmin | you can get it anywhere, but you need to indicate that in advance, IIRC | 22:51 |
mgedmin | which is where the set_extension_events suggestion comes from | 22:51 |
*** jprieur has joined #maemo | 22:52 | |
* mgedmin is just echoing old conversations from this channel/maemo mailing list and pretending he knows stuff | 22:52 | |
mgedmin | google also gives me this example for PyGtk: http://www.pygtk.org/pygtktutorial/sec-addingxinputsupport.html | 22:52 |
mgedmin | xinput is the mechanism for passing pressure information from input devices to applications | 22:52 |

mgedmin | this was the first google hit for "gdk pressure" by the way | 22:54 |
dougt | cool, that did it. | 22:54 |
dougt | but.... | 22:55 |
dougt | the values are all fucked up. :-) | 22:55 |
dougt | there is no consistency. | 22:55 |
dougt | (thanks mgedmin for googling!) | 22:55 |
mgedmin | http://www.fbreader.org/docs/tapControl.php talks a bit about the pressure values on n8x0 | 22:57 |
qwerty12_N800 | Ok, sorry for sounding like a broken record but is enabling tv equal to enabling v4l2 support in mplayer? Quick answer is all I need :) | 22:59 |
KotCzarny | mplayer says it wasn't compiled with tv support | 22:59 |
dougt | perfect | 23:00 |
dougt | mgedmin: thanks. | 23:00 |
qwerty12_N800 | I mean when compiling :), basically is "tv" the only way to use v4l2 in mplayer. | 23:00 |

G7KES | Hello, does anyone know how to get the ogg mediaplayer to be the default app for ogg files to that it doesn't ask me what I want to use to open the ogg file every time? | 23:02 |
qwerty12_N800 | look into pipeline's dbus-switchboard. or as media player is built in app, editing defaults.list may be all that is needed | 23:04 |
