cyberholic | no wait! i mean, flash can play midis! | 00:00 |
lcuk | but my cats ears are pricking and the kids are complaining so i will assume its working | 00:00 |
KotCzarny | lol, lcuk, you're deaf! | 00:00 |
KotCzarny | so early.. | 00:00 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:00 |
lcuk | i can hear them really, but they are at upper bounds, i have to turn speakers up more to hear them normally | 00:00 |
* lcuk alters the tone | 00:01 | |
lcuk | ahhhh damn kids | 00:01 |
KotCzarny | deafness doesn't happen in one moment | 00:01 |
KotCzarny | it decreases gradually your ability to hear | 00:01 |
cyberholic | geeeeesus! i am not going to respond on that "drummachine" thread at ITT - it is from LAST YEAR! *sigh* .... Last year is so... is sooooo old! | 00:01 |
cyberholic | lol | 00:01 |
lcuk | it did for my missus, she is exactly 50% deaf | 00:01 |
KotCzarny | cyberholic: so what? it will notify people that were subscribed to it | 00:02 |
*** flo_lap has joined #maemo | 00:02 | |
KotCzarny | and bump it | 00:02 |
cyberholic | i know, i was just kidding. | 00:02 |
lcuk | it may reawaken their urges to play drums | 00:02 |
KotCzarny | o.o | 00:02 |
lcuk | which they will do for 5 minutes before carrying on whatever they did | 00:02 |
lcuk | happy in the knowledge their lifes achievement of playing drums on their 810 is complete | 00:02 |

elb | AStorm: suck (broken plugs) | 00:13 |
*** Crfrodf has quit IRC | 00:14 | |
AStorm | elb: hmm? | 00:14 |
AStorm | yup, they do suck | 00:14 |
AStorm | that's why I'm seeking to convert USB to charge my Nxxx | 00:15 |
elb | what broke, exactly? | 00:15 |
KotCzarny | astorm, just make an adapter? | 00:15 |
AStorm | that flimsy 5V plug | 00:15 |
elb | what *part* of the plug? | 00:15 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: no! it'd still have the junk plug | 00:15 |
elb | mine doesn't seem flimsy at all | 00:15 |
KotCzarny | astorm: straight angle adapter | 00:15 |
AStorm | elb: the plug itself :> | 00:15 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:15 |
AStorm | elb: metal part | 00:16 |
AStorm | and plastic too | 00:16 |
AStorm | junk | 00:16 |
AStorm | and twice | 00:16 |
elb | huh | 00:16 |
AStorm | one weekly | 00:16 |
AStorm | so, I'll find out which is 5V and which is ground | 00:16 |
elb | seems improbable to me | 00:16 |
elb | that's labeled on the wall wart | 00:17 |
AStorm | .... | 00:17 |
elb | (by law) | 00:17 |
AStorm | the 5V broke | 00:17 |
AStorm | not the 220V plug | 00:17 |
elb | yes ... but the polarity of the 5v plug is labeled on the wall wart | 00:17 |
elb | look at it | 00:17 |
AStorm | ... | 00:17 |
AStorm | which wall wart? | 00:17 |
AStorm | in the device? ;P | 00:17 |
elb | the 220v end | 00:17 |
elb | there should be a label with a little diagram of a ring and pin | 00:17 |
KotCzarny | heh | 00:18 |
KotCzarny | it's not the problem | 00:18 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:18 |
elb | and it will say which is + and which is -, as well as the voltage and amperage | 00:18 |
KotCzarny | the real problem is that i broke | 00:18 |
AStorm | nopes | 00:18 |
elb | huh | 00:18 |
KotCzarny | and he doesn't want do have anything with that nokia's plug anymore | 00:18 |
AStorm | voltage and amperage are there | 00:18 |
* elb looks at his | 00:18 | |
elb | KotCzarny: right, but he's trying to identify polarity | 00:18 |
AStorm | yup | 00:19 |
AStorm | usb only has +5V | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | ah, i see | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | sorry :) | 00:19 |
AStorm | so the other has to be GND | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | and no, it's not labelled | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | at least not on mine | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | but usualyy + is in the center | 00:19 |
AStorm | I think the pin is live, the sleeve is GND | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | and - is on the outside | 00:19 |
elb | huh, mine's not labeled, either ... maybe because it's a european import? | 00:19 |
AStorm | hehehe | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | mine is us version | 00:19 |
KotCzarny | made in china | 00:20 |
elb | normally the tip is +5 and the ring is ground, but you can't count on that | 00:20 |
KotCzarny | (charger) | 00:20 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:20 |
elb | yeah, mine is the US version as well | 00:20 |
elb | but normally things in teh US are labeled | 00:20 |
AStorm | elb: that's why I'll check | 00:20 |
elb | in fact, I thought UL required it | 00:20 |
AStorm | it's easy to do once I broke the plug ;P | 00:20 |
elb | but this has a UL logo on it | 00:20 |
elb | and no diagram | 00:20 |
KotCzarny | interestingly enough regular phone charger also is missing diagram | 00:20 |

cyberholic | do you guys think that i can destroy the device loudspeakers with the drummachine? If i play multiple drums for a while the loudspeaker sounds like "its time to say goodbye old boy!" | 00:21 |
AStorm | that's because it's non-mandatory | 00:21 |
cyberholic | Astorm: the loudspeakers? | 00:21 |
elb | AStorm: for at least some equipment, it's mandatory in the US | 00:21 |
elb | I thought it was for all wall warts | 00:21 |
*** red-zack has quit IRC | 00:21 | |
elb | but perhaps only if they carry a certain amount of power or some crap | 00:21 |
elb | well, mandatory in some locales -- but in practice that means everywhere, because it's not like companies make different parts for CA or MA or whatever states are the problem ;-) | 00:22 |
KotCzarny | elb: as i said, mine is us version | 00:22 |
KotCzarny | and is missing diagram as well | 00:22 |
elb | it's pretty normal to have a little logo that looks like -Co- where the o is inside the C | 00:22 |
elb | KotCzarny: as I said, mine is too | 00:22 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:22 |
*** eathprod has quit IRC | 00:22 | |
elb | KotCzarny: and also not labeled | 00:22 |
elb | KotCzarny: but ... this is atypical | 00:22 |
AStorm | the construction of the 5V plug is suicide ;> | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | not for nokia | 00:23 |
AStorm | it's two rings | 00:23 |
cyberholic | does anyone of you know REST? | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | as i said other nokia's phone charger is missing it too | 00:23 |

KotCzarny | cyberholic: change your nick name | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | because you're not true to it | 00:23 |
cyberholic | Kot: why? | 00:23 |
KotCzarny | asking such questions | 00:23 |
cyberholic | *lol* | 00:23 |
elb | yeah, nokia sucks, apparently ;-) | 00:24 |
cyberholic | Man, i am so much into XML and think that i am falling in love with REST but i do not know how to parse it within php | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | elb: maybe it's nda ;) | 00:24 |
elb | I just looked at my Nintendo DS wall wart, a Motorola phone wall wart, a clock power adapter, and a GameCube inline wart | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | lol | 00:24 |
elb | all of them are labeled | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | i have thought you are talking about physical rest | 00:24 |

elb | it's just Nokia ;-) | 00:24 |
KotCzarny | stupid name for a project | 00:24 |

AlbertoP_ | Good afternoon .... I have a Nokia 770 running latest OS 2006 .. My question is: Is ther a way to make a FULL BACKUP of the OS partition (from a Linux PC) so I can make my own modified .bin and whenever I need to reinstall the system, I already have a full operating copy and don't need to install the Nokia .bin and start installing all the apps .... ? | 00:27 |
AStorm | that's the correct one | 00:27 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:27 |
KotCzarny | yeah | 00:27 |
KotCzarny | 2006 isn't latest | 00:28 |
AStorm | AlbertoP_: sure, it's called rsync | 00:28 |
AStorm | :-) | 00:28 |
AlbertoP_ | lastest of OS2006 ... ;) (49-2, I think) | 00:28 |
KotCzarny | alberto: with some hacking, probably | 00:28 |
AStorm | also, you can backup using the flasher program | 00:28 |
*** philipl has quit IRC | 00:28 | |
AStorm | thus create a .bin | 00:28 |
AlbertoP_ | the flasher program for linux, you mean ? | 00:28 |
AlbertoP_ | (I have used the Nokia flasher for Windowze so far only) | 00:29 |
KotCzarny | hmm, anyone knows where fluxbox stores window positions? | 00:30 |
AlbertoP_ | AStorm, you mean the flasher utility for Linux, right ? | 00:30 |
AStorm | yup | 00:30 |
KotCzarny | nvm, found it | 00:30 |
AlbertoP_ | cool, will check it out .... | 00:31 |

AlbertoP_ | I hav not been able to find tcpdump nor btscanner for OS2006.... (eko1 repository is gone) ... ay other repositories with those packages or DEBs ? | 00:32 |
AStorm | 5V/1A? | 00:32 |
*** cyberholic has quit IRC | 00:33 | |
lopz | re | 00:33 |
elb | AStorm: I don't understand the question ... what are you wanting to do with a diode, and why? | 00:33 |
elb | you can't expect to pull more than 500mA off a USB bus safely, period | 00:33 |
AStorm | connect USB port power to the nokia power | 00:33 |
AStorm | I know | 00:33 |
AStorm | that's enough for power circuitry of N810 | 00:33 |
AStorm | it will struggle a bit, but work and charge correctly | 00:34 |
KotCzarny | elb: many products break that rule | 00:34 |
elb | KotCzarny: that doesn't make it safe, or a good idea | 00:34 |
KotCzarny | mostly those charging related | 00:34 |
AStorm | fairly advanced power regulator it has | 00:34 |
KotCzarny | i know | 00:34 |
AlbertoP_ | 770 charges at 890mA | 00:34 |
KotCzarny | but some people will just do that | 00:34 |
elb | that's fine, I won't ;-) | 00:34 |
AStorm | AlbertoP_: nah, it can easily grab more | 00:34 |
elb | and I don't understand what a diode is supposed to do with the price of cheese | 00:34 |
KotCzarny | and then manufacturers see the trend | 00:34 |
fysa | safe?? | 00:34 |
AStorm | elb: I can put a regulator to not overdrive the port | 00:34 |
fysa | nothing is going to explode. | 00:34 |
KotCzarny | and hopefully fix the design | 00:34 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:35 |
*** philipl has joined #maemo | 00:35 | |
AlbertoP_ | I know, but is what the adapter is designed to give ... | 00:35 |
AStorm | fysa: yeah, only the laptop can burn ;P | 00:35 |
elb | fysa: you could damage the USB host adapter | 00:35 |
fysa | have you damaged one personally? | 00:35 |
KotCzarny | he avoids such risks | 00:35 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:35 |
fysa | in the last 5 years? | 00:35 |
AStorm | blah blah | 00:35 |
*** jnettlet has quit IRC | 00:35 | |
AStorm | most have proper regulators | 00:35 |
elb | no, and it may even be extremely unlikely -- there are a relatively small number of adapter manufacturers | 00:35 |
elb | but that doesn't change the fact that you're violating spec | 00:35 |
KotCzarny | so it should be a question for someone that actually did it | 00:35 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:35 |
AStorm | elb: I can put a limiter | 00:36 |
AStorm | no problem with that | 00:36 |
*** unique311 has quit IRC | 00:36 | |
KotCzarny | ie. pulled more than allowed current | 00:36 |
elb | AStorm: go for it | 00:36 |
AStorm | N810 *will* work on 500 mA | 00:36 |
elb | just don't expect a diode to do that for you ;-) | 00:36 |
fysa | it's not like USB was just released.. although non-standard, everyone is aware of this by now and I would take it as an exception to have a problem. | 00:36 |
AStorm | diode was to prevent backflow | 00:36 |
AlbertoP_ | If you really want to know the aperage rating of your personal IT, plug it through a normal 2A charger, and measure the current it is pulling out ..... | 00:36 |
AStorm | to not destroy the USB if I connect power input ;P | 00:36 |
lcuk | 500ma which usb supplies is under spec, but you can currently buy USB->Nokia Power adapter cable kits which work | 00:36 |
AlbertoP_ | Then you know how much it is going to be asking of your USB port | 00:36 |
elb | fysa: if everyone is aware of it, then all devices should pull no more than 500mA ;-) | 00:36 |
AStorm | lcuk: exactly | 00:36 |
ImMelody | has anyone else used the homewifilevel? | 00:36 |
*** rkabir has quit IRC | 00:37 | |
lcuk | the only problem i see with your method is that you are jacking onto the usb OTG port which will attempt to communicate with the host device and tell it it only needs 100ma max (which is the USB OTG spec) | 00:37 |
AlbertoP_ | Well, that is just an average ... you need to test at maximum usage (brightest screen, wifi on, bluetooth on, etc .... | 00:37 |
AStorm | lcuk: hmmhmm | 00:37 |
AStorm | now that would be the problem | 00:38 |
lcuk | i believe to prevent that you would need to disable your actual usb which would be folly | 00:38 |
AStorm | and that's why I'm reading the spec | 00:38 |
AStorm | lcuk: not folly, just simple | 00:38 |
elb | in order to pull > 100mA you're *supposed* to negotiate | 00:38 |
elb | (many devices do not) | 00:38 |
AStorm | blah blah | 00:38 |
AStorm | the spec says SHOULD | 00:39 |
AStorm | :> | 00:39 |
lcuk | the negotiation is part of the spec, no device can supply over 100ma until AFTER the negotiation | 00:39 |
elb | actually, it says MUST | 00:39 |
AStorm | guess what that means | 00:39 |
AStorm | elb: let me check | 00:39 |
AStorm | lcuk: ARGH | 00:39 |
AlbertoP_ | That is what my motorola cell phone does to charge of the USB port (through miniUSB connector) | 00:39 |
elb | lcuk: a lot of devices do, though | 00:39 |
elb | it's easier to simply be prepared to push 500mA on every port, then to actually switch it | 00:39 |
elb | still, I feel I should point it out :-) | 00:39 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:40 |
AStorm | better to be prepared for 1A | 00:40 |
AStorm | ;P | 00:40 |
KotCzarny | or more | 00:40 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:40 |
AStorm | some devices sure are power hungry | 00:40 |
*** k-s has joined #maemo | 00:40 | |
AStorm | some take two ports | 00:40 |
lcuk | of course you are prepared to do that, but if you do before its ready then you will fry anything which touches the port immediately | 00:40 |
KotCzarny | i was happily running 1A hdd off my thinkpad usb port | 00:40 |
elb | yes, normally devices which need much more than 500mA use more than one port | 00:40 |
AStorm | lcuk: yeah sure | 00:40 |
lcuk | the host device cannot assume 500ma directly because that would blow a lot of lesser devices | 00:41 |
KotCzarny | and yes, it gets that much during spinning start | 00:41 |
lcuk | i have a 100ma keyboard | 00:41 |
AlbertoP_ | I hav not been able to find tcpdump nor btscanner for OS2006.... (eko1 repository is gone) ... ay other repositories with those packages or DEBs ? | 00:41 |
AStorm | lcuk: it's autoregulating | 00:41 |
AStorm | so if there is higher load, it will be given | 00:41 |
elb | some devices refuse to charge unless they *can* negotiate | 00:41 |
lcuk | yer, when the magic smoke appears the device stops pulling | 00:41 |
elb | I think ipods do | 00:41 |
elb | more devices should be so compliant :-P | 00:41 |
AStorm | lcuk: rotfl | 00:41 |
KotCzarny | al bertop: gronmayer.com/it/ | 00:41 |
lcuk | correct elb, ipods cannot charge without intelligent device | 00:41 |
AStorm | :-| | 00:42 |
KotCzarny | computers operate on smoke | 00:42 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:42 |
AStorm | I wonder what does that Nokia charger do | 00:42 |
KotCzarny | once the smoke gets out they stop working | 00:42 |
lcuk | that charger isnt a usb | 00:42 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:42 |
lcuk | or are you on about another one | 00:42 |
AStorm | lcuk: dummy, the USB charger | 00:42 |
AlbertoP_ | KotCz..: thanks | 00:42 |
AStorm | Stupid Nokia could've just built that in :> | 00:43 |
*** ssvb has quit IRC | 00:43 | |
elb | I suspect if the device drew <500mA, they would have | 00:43 |
AStorm | but then they'd get complaints like "the device is barely charging" | 00:43 |
lcuk | nahhh i would hate to have to open kickstand to charge, or unplug keyboard etc | 00:44 |
lcuk | this isnt just a phone where you can just have possibly 1 connector | 00:44 |
GeneralAntilles | Besides, no other Nokia device uses USB for charging. | 00:44 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, not a problem if it was included in the place of the current charger port | 00:44 |
AStorm | GeneralAntilles: all new phones do ;P | 00:44 |
lcuk | my phone does, but it is also a full sync etc | 00:44 |
AStorm | Chinese now require that | 00:44 |
lcuk | KotCzarny, 2 usb ports? | 00:44 |
elb | I'm wondering if they just send AStorm extra crappy plugs or something | 00:44 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, why 2? | 00:44 |
elb | because I really don't see a way to break this one short of some serious effort | 00:44 |
AlbertoP_ | A DIY kit, made out of three AA batteries with around 3000mAh should give charge to the IT replacing around four hours of outlet charge ..... and just carry around (on trips) the battery recharger ... (15minute one from Rayovac) | 00:44 |
lcuk | because i would have to keep unplugging my memory stick or my keyboard or whatever was plugged in just to charge it | 00:45 |
AStorm | elb: just horizontal force | 00:45 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:45 |
AStorm | not too large, even | 00:45 |
elb | yeah ... not seeing it | 00:45 |
AStorm | rotational will do the same even quicker | 00:45 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: ok, that's an argument | 00:45 |
elb | I mean, I'm not goign to plug it into the tablet and smash down on it or anything | 00:45 |
lcuk | :) | 00:45 |
elb | but it's a relatively short lever and pretty well-built | 00:45 |
AStorm | I didn't do that either | 00:45 |
AStorm | that's why it fails | 00:46 |
KotCzarny | though i don't use any usb devices withh IT n | 00:46 |
AStorm | because it's short | 00:46 |
KotCzarny | so 1 will be enough for me | 00:46 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:46 |
lcuk | but its there for a reason | 00:46 |
AlbertoP_ | Even easier, just take a couple wires directly from your laptop's battery and plug your tablet there ;):P | 00:46 |
lcuk | i agree though kot, it should OPTIONALLY use usb for charging | 00:46 |
AStorm | AlbertoP_: and fry it with 14.2V? | 00:46 |
lcuk | ontop of the current chrager | 00:46 |
AStorm | no, sorry | 00:46 |

*** Pio_ has joined #maemo | 00:46 | |

*** TPC has quit IRC | 00:47 | |
lcuk | i would like to make an extended battery pack which basically extended the back by a few mm, it can have its own charging port wherever and be constantly plugged into nokia | 00:47 |
elb | switching regulators are almost free | 00:47 |
AlbertoP_ | I got an EE degree some thousand years ago, heheheh | 00:47 |
*** ImMelody has quit IRC | 00:47 | |
AStorm | elb: exactly | 00:47 |
*** TPC has joined #maemo | 00:47 | |
AStorm | lcuk: we were thinking about NiMH battery pack | 00:48 |
lcuk | like this: >>> http://crave.cnet.com/8301-1_105-9713850-1.html | 00:48 |
KotCzarny | lcuk, everything you need is to check what voltage is required for charging | 00:48 |
AStorm | 4x NiMH | 00:48 |
KotCzarny | ie. if it would work on anything lesser than 5V | 00:48 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: 3,7V, d'oh | 00:48 |
AStorm | it's on the battery | 00:48 |
KotCzarny | astorm: but nokia has charging circuitry | 00:48 |
AStorm | it has a smart charge circuit built in apparently | 00:49 |
KotCzarny | it's not connected directly to battery | 00:49 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: no, the battery has inside | 00:49 |
lcuk | if make up the voltage in series, ampage in parallel. just work out whats acceptable and fill the space | 00:49 |
elb | NiMH AAs will provide *plenty* of amperage | 00:49 |
KotCzarny | astorm: have you actually tried plugging anything other than original charger? | 00:49 |
AlbertoP_ | ok, I amn going, thanks for the help ... bye | 00:49 |
*** AlbertoP_ has quit IRC | 00:49 | |
AStorm | KotCzarny: no :> | 00:50 |
AStorm | I don't have a spare yet | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | astorm: tell me when you do | 00:50 |
AStorm | elb: sure | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | right now we are speculating :) | 00:50 |
lcuk | BBZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTT | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | i would be interested in external battery pack too | 00:50 |
AStorm | we just don't know if 4,8V will be enough | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | 4x AA seems nice | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | yup | 00:50 |
elb | that, I of course can't tell you | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | anyone with a broken plug ? | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:50 |
elb | but ... switching power supplies are almost free! ;-) | 00:50 |
lcuk | theres plenty of those battery extender chargers around | 00:50 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: I have one ;P | 00:50 |
KotCzarny | astorm: care to try? | 00:51 |
KotCzarny | :) | 00:51 |
AStorm | lcuk: exactly, it must be simple | 00:51 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: but it's broken in a wrong way :-( | 00:51 |
gribouille | what good yexy editors are available for the tavblet ? | 00:51 |
gribouille | text editors | 00:51 |
KotCzarny | define 'photo' ? | 00:51 |
AStorm | gribouille: text? like, vim? | 00:51 |
KotCzarny | erm | 00:51 |
KotCzarny | 'wrong' | 00:51 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: it's the plug that's broken, not the cable | 00:51 |
KotCzarny | grib: i believe there was an abiword port | 00:51 |
lcuk | astorm, most devices will work under voltage. its just like a torch, if you replace normal AAs with rechargables you get a slightly dimmer light but it works | 00:51 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: crashy like hell ;P | 00:51 |
lcuk | just get clsoe enough to the voltage (keeping under) and try it | 00:52 |
KotCzarny | astorm, but you can put it inside and silder wires to it? | 00:52 |
AStorm | lcuk: let's hope so ;P | 00:52 |
gribouille | AStorm, I dont find vim well adapted for the tablet because of all the commands that need a lot of typing | 00:52 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: I smell sparks... ;P | 00:52 |
KotCzarny | *solder | 00:52 |
*** JussiP_ has joined #maemo | 00:52 | |
lcuk | under voltage == so what it might not fire up. over voltage == danger area | 00:52 |
AStorm | gribouille: not a lot, esp. not for N810 | 00:52 |
AStorm | lcuk: exactly | 00:52 |
*** JussiP has quit IRC | 00:52 | |
AStorm | that's why 5x AA is risky | 00:52 |
elb | I installed jed on my tablet | 00:52 |
lcuk | agreed.. | 00:52 |
AStorm | although 0,2V overvoltage is <10% | 00:52 |
KotCzarny | i installed mcedit | 00:52 |
KotCzarny | ;) | 00:52 |
elb | it works OK, although control sequences are a bit painful sometimes | 00:53 |
AStorm | even 5% tolerance | 00:53 |
lcuk | 4 is right, must dash, ive got sdl on the brain | 00:53 |
AStorm | blah | 00:53 |
gribouille | KotCzarny, from where ? | 00:53 |
AStorm | 4,8V, have to test | 00:53 |
KotCzarny | grib: internet, of course | 00:53 |
elb | lcuk: well ... under voltage *can* mean it draws too much current, in the interest of full disclosure ;-) | 00:53 |
AStorm | but first, I need a lot of spare plugs | 00:53 |
KotCzarny | i haven't tried it | 00:53 |
elb | (I doubt anything as sophisticated as the tablet would do so) | 00:53 |
AStorm | elb: it can't possibly overdrive NiMH | 00:53 |
elb | AStorm: oh, no, of course not | 00:53 |
AStorm | it'd have to pull like 3A or so | 00:54 |
KotCzarny | astorm: but control circuit can be too 'smart' | 00:54 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: hehe, 4,8V is just 5% below | 00:54 |
elb | are these Nokia plugs at all standard? | 00:54 |
KotCzarny | in the way 'use only ORIGINAL charger and refuse to work with anything else | 00:54 |
AStorm | elb: yes, they look very much like standard 6V | 00:54 |
lcuk | ffs dont we have car chargers. elb go find a 4aa multichargers set somewhere and just try it | 00:54 |
lcuk | astorm ^ | 00:55 |
gribouille | anoother question : for file sharing, what is the best ? samba ? | 00:55 |
lcuk | sneakernet | 00:55 |

KotCzarny | grib: define 'it' | 00:56 |
gribouille | sshfs | 00:56 |
KotCzarny | yup | 00:56 |
KotCzarny | both ways | 00:56 |
KotCzarny | server/client | 00:56 |
KotCzarny | for server you only have to install ssh-server and nothing else | 00:56 |
lcuk | much more setting up though isnt it - dont most machines have samba? | 00:56 |
KotCzarny | for client you have to get kernel module and some libs | 00:57 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: none of mine ;) | 00:57 |
AStorm | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_connector | 00:57 |
AStorm | pick the one :> | 00:57 |
lcuk | i agree, sshfs is nice, but i dont expect it everywhere | 00:57 |
KotCzarny | lcuk: i do | 00:57 |
gribouille | KotCzarny, I know, I already use sshfs | 00:57 |

AStorm | 4th is larger, you fail | 01:00 |
AStorm | or maybe... let me check | 01:00 |
Joe_CoT | hey, I have a question about the n810. A friend of mine pointed out options for configuring GPRS / Data Call internet connections within the n810. That's only for use with a synced cell phone, correct? There's nothing built in to the n810 to handle it? | 01:01 |

KotCzarny | it may be the 3rd | 01:01 |
gribouille | KotCzarny, how do you unmount an sshfs filesystem ? | 01:01 |
KotCzarny | because of the ring on the end of the plug | 01:01 |
Joe_CoT | AStorm, ok, thanks. I wish it was otherwise, but I wanted to confirm with someone | 01:01 |

KotCzarny | then you're asking for problems | 01:32 |
KotCzarny | :) | 01:32 |
AStorm | it really mounts it, but 90% of FSes under linux allow it | 01:32 |
AStorm | that's the same VFS, it manages the write | 01:33 |
AlbertoP_ | What is the safest bet ? | 01:33 |
AStorm | so, the write is done once | 01:33 |
KotCzarny | with --bind, yes | 01:33 |
KotCzarny | with separate mounts, i think not | 01:33 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: also w/o bind | 01:33 |
AStorm | :-) | 01:33 |
KotCzarny | unless something has changed | 01:33 |
AStorm | it's the VFS that does the writes | 01:33 |
KotCzarny | since i last played with vfs | 01:33 |
AStorm | and reads | 01:33 |
AStorm | VFS is the / | 01:33 |

AStorm | and don't use - at all | 01:34 |
AlbertoP_ | ok, no gzip .... | 01:34 |
AStorm | and add p | 01:34 |
KotCzarny | alberto, you should tell tar to stay on one file system | 01:34 |
AStorm | (store permissions) | 01:34 |
AlbertoP_ | "tar -pcvf --bind My770.tgz /" | 01:34 |
AlbertoP_ | ? | 01:34 |
AStorm | yes, but busybox tar is stupid | 01:34 |
AStorm | AlbertoP_: did I say no - | 01:34 |
AStorm | and no --bind, that's mount option | 01:34 |
KotCzarny | you don't want to tar /sys and /proc | 01:34 |

pupnik | hmmmm tryin | 01:38 |
lcuk | there is an ioctl to wait until transfer complete | 01:38 |

AlbertoP_ | AStorm and KotCzarny were recommending something using tar, but recommended mounting something and I didn't get it ... | 02:00 |
AlbertoP_ | nop .. didn't know it existed ..... | 02:00 |
AlbertoP_ | :O | 02:00 |
KotCzarny | alberto, problem would be when restoring that backup | 02:00 |

pupnik | http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HowTo_EASILY_Boot_From_MMC_card/ AlbertoP_ | 02:01 |

KotCzarny | booting off mmc is a nice way for it | 02:02 |
KotCzarny | mmc is more readily available | 02:02 |
KotCzarny | so you can backup/restore on pc | 02:02 |
AlbertoP_ | pupnik: your recommnedation would be to have the OS on the MMC ? | 02:02 |

unixSnob | http://www.navicoretech.com/Consumer/Support/Downloads/tablet/en_GB/tablet/ <= the maps came from here | 02:55 |
GeneralAntilles | Erm, those are for "Map" | 02:56 |
*** pupnik_ has joined #maemo | 02:56 | |
GeneralAntilles | Not Maemo Mapper | 02:56 |
unixSnob | ah, i didn't realize there were two different apps in there | 02:56 |
GeneralAntilles | Maemo Mapper is a GPL mapping application that uses Google/Yahoo/Microsoft/Open Street maps. | 02:57 |
GeneralAntilles | "Map" is basically the Navicore mapping application, except bundled. | 02:57 |
unixSnob | hmm.. sounds like something I should look into | 02:57 |
GeneralAntilles | They're significantly different. | 02:57 |
GeneralAntilles | How'd you get "Map" -> Maemo Mapper? :P | 02:57 |
trollasaurus | Which one is better ? I'm getting a Nokia N810 for work and I might like to use the GPS. | 02:57 |
GeneralAntilles | They're two completely different beasts. | 02:58 |
unixSnob | the bundled one just gave me a popup asking me to register, or run the trial | 02:58 |
unixSnob | (if I want to navigate w/ it) | 02:58 |
AStorm | btw, how do I get navigation to work in Maemo Mapper? | 02:59 |
AStorm | unixSnob: exactly | 02:59 |
AStorm | it's navicore all right, with all the expenses | 02:59 |
GeneralAntilles | You get yourself a Bluetooth GPS, get a fix and download a route to somewhere. | 02:59 |
GeneralAntilles | AStorm, the help is incredibly excellent | 03:00 |
GeneralAntilles | and available online. | 03:00 |
AStorm | wheee | 03:00 |
AStorm | GeneralAntilles: "from somewhere" | 03:00 |
AStorm | thanks | 03:00 |
AStorm | esp. none are relevant for Poland | 03:00 |
GeneralAntilles | None of what? | 03:00 |
AStorm | routes and sites | 03:00 |
GeneralAntilles | Open Street, Google, Microsoft, or Yahoo? | 03:00 |
GeneralAntilles | None work? | 03:00 |
AStorm | maps do works | 03:00 |
AStorm | *work, routes don't | 03:01 |
AStorm | esp. voice nav. doesn't work :> | 03:01 |
GeneralAntilles | flite not set up for that? :P | 03:01 |
unixSnob | is maemo mapper free (as in free beer)? | 03:01 |
AStorm | GeneralAntilles: I have flite, doesn't work still | 03:01 |
AStorm | unixSnob: yep | 03:01 |
unixSnob | nice | 03:01 |
AStorm | ofc. the maps are non-commercial, except (quite poor) Open Street | 03:02 |
unixSnob | i'm glad the free one will work w/ google maps | 03:02 |

*** pdz has joined #maemo | 03:03 | |

AStorm | :> | 03:04 |
GeneralAntilles | Did you download a route? | 03:04 |
unixSnob | ok, so if the navicore product is a different beast, what does it do that mapper doesn't? | 03:04 |
AStorm | where? | 03:04 |
AStorm | unixSnob: it has paid maps | 03:04 |
AStorm | ;P | 03:04 |
GeneralAntilles | From one of the map repositories. | 03:04 |
GeneralAntilles | Google/Yahoo/Microsoft/Open Street | 03:04 |
AStorm | ... | 03:04 |
AStorm | can't I make one myself? | 03:05 |
GeneralAntilles | Or something else if you have something else. | 03:05 |
AStorm | make maemo mapper autofit to roads? | 03:05 |
GeneralAntilles | It'll load GPX routes. | 03:05 |
unixSnob | IOW, it offers teleatlas maps - is that the only significant difference? | 03:05 |
unixSnob | Guess mapper is what i'm after | 03:05 |
GeneralAntilles | Erm, they're just bitmaps. | 03:05 |

AStorm | argh, what I feared most | 03:06 |
GeneralAntilles | You could do it with Google Earth | 03:06 |
GeneralAntilles | There isn't a single mapping site that provides maps for Poland, though? | 03:06 |

unixSnob | The only benefit to navicore seems to be Teleatlas maps - and that's a shortcoming from my standpoint (teleatlas screwed up the local maps where i am) | 03:16 |
unixSnob | teleatlas maps are better in europe, from what I understand | 03:17 |
unixSnob | and navteq is better in the US | 03:17 |
KotCzarny | as most of the global apps | 03:17 |
AStorm | and none are better in Poland, which is mapped worse than Russia, even | 03:19 |
AStorm | :/ | 03:19 |
KotCzarny | russia is bigger | 03:20 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:20 |
KotCzarny | astorm, maybe you can snatch some maps from pilot.pl or something? | 03:20 |
KotCzarny | ie. figure out the proper link and maybe it will work? | 03:20 |
unixSnob | interesting that maps would be lousy in poland.. from what I understand, the roads don't change much in most of europe - meaning they just need to get it right once | 03:20 |
KotCzarny | unixsnob: someone has to do it | 03:21 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: actually, google maps are mostly ok | 03:21 |

AStorm | yup | 03:35 |

KotCzarny | but that could go wrong | 03:35 |
AStorm | and some smart algorithm, like A* | 03:35 |

lcuk | salesman dilemma with only 1 root though | 03:37 |
KotCzarny | pacman operates on pure energy | 03:37 |
lcuk | if you add alternative expected stopoffs it becomes more difficult | 03:37 |
KotCzarny | and energy is very.. what's the word? | 03:37 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:37 |
KotCzarny | diluted | 03:38 |
KotCzarny | :) | 03:38 |
lcuk | you start at the destination and throw outwards until you hit the destination. give each a TTL and you are rocking | 03:38 |
lcuk | add extra weight to the larger routes.. | 03:38 |
lcuk | its not a tough problem | 03:38 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 03:39 |
ImMelody | Figures. I can't download VMWare right now =\ | 03:39 |
lcuk | though you may find examples where it goes wrong | 03:39 |
KotCzarny | then it should be possible to write an algo to operate on bitmap maps | 03:39 |
lcuk | ie being routed across the continent before coming back | 03:39 |
lcuk | not really, using vectors you have priority | 03:39 |
lcuk | with bitmaps you would be screwed by resolution | 03:39 |
KotCzarny | but with maemo-mapper you have bitmaps | 03:40 |
unixSnob | well it's an unsolved problem from what I understand. There's infinite possibilities. So an algorithm necessarily will overlook paths - possibly the best path | 03:40 |
lcuk | unixSnob, its an evolving function. if a path is missed at first it can be updated and it will be usable by people in future | 03:40 |
*** eton_ has joined #maemo | 03:40 | |

Paulius | I know I need a power injector, and I'm working on that. But host mode is first | 03:44 |
dragorn | Paulius: flasher | 03:45 |
Paulius | could you elaborate? | 03:45 |
dragorn | Paulius: flasher3.0 -h. it's one of the switches. | 03:46 |
Paulius | oh it's a command? | 03:46 |
dragorn | yes, for the tool you use to flash the device. | 03:46 |

KotCzarny | hmm, i should see the barber soon | 03:46 |
KotCzarny | or find a way keeping my hair out of my eyes | 03:47 |

*** _berto_ has joined #maemo | 12:16 | |
AStorm | ok, time for a major Q: | 12:16 |
AStorm | does N810 present itself as an USB high load device? (500 mA per standard) | 12:16 |
lardman | I'd guess not as it doesn't recharge over usb | 12:17 |
AStorm | might still, who knows | 12:18 |
AStorm | I'd have to grab a dump out of the controller | 12:18 |
AStorm | fortunately, as it is Linux, we can easily negotiate high current in software | 12:18 |
*** murrayc has joined #maemo | 12:19 | |
lardman | Why do you ask? | 12:19 |
AStorm | guess | 12:19 |
AStorm | want to mod N810 to charge directly over USB | 12:19 |
lardman | oh I see | 12:20 |
lardman | well in that case a change to the kernel should do the trick | 12:20 |
anidel | it'll be a hardware hack, will it ? | 12:20 |
lardman | (asking for more current that is) | 12:20 |
AStorm | anidel: partially, adding two diodes | 12:20 |
AStorm | and a connection between usb port power lines and power connector | 12:20 |
anidel | a friend of mine bought the USB cable from Nokia for charging it... 25€!!! damn them.. so expensive | 12:21 |
AStorm | and it still has the stupid small 5V plug | 12:21 |
AStorm | :-) | 12:21 |
glass | just adding a charger plug to usb cord is easy | 12:21 |
anidel | AStorm: if it's easy to do, I'll do it.. when mine is not under warranty anymore :) | 12:21 |
AStorm | anidel: :> | 12:21 |
aquatix | anidel: eh? you *can* charge it with that cable? | 12:21 |
aquatix | thought it wasn't possible by default | 12:21 |
AStorm | not that one | 12:22 |
anidel | aquatix: sure.. it's USB to Nokia charger plug.. it charges all the nokia's recent phone and the N800/N810 as well | 12:22 |
AStorm | it's USB -> Nokia 2mm connector | 12:22 |
pupnik | has anybody tried the 4x NiMH AA without regulator? | 12:22 |
aquatix | anidel: oh :) | 12:22 |
AStorm | pupnik: well, there's DC-8 | 12:22 |
aquatix | meh | 12:22 |
lardman | pupnik: I have on the Zaurus | 12:22 |
anidel | last day it was chargint the N95 and later the N810 as well | 12:22 |
AStorm | buy one and destroy | 12:22 |
anidel | I don't remember the cable name | 12:22 |
AStorm | I guess a tiny regulator would work | 12:22 |
AStorm | it's just 0,2V up | 12:22 |
anidel | probably | 12:22 |
AStorm | pupnik: if it works over USB, then it should with 4,8V | 12:23 |
AStorm | as USB of high charge can provide 4,75V per spec | 12:23 |
anidel | it's the CA-100 cable | 12:23 |
AStorm | unless they added a step up in the cable | 12:23 |
anidel | it Italian: http://www.nokia.it/ca-100 | 12:23 |

*** qwerty12 has quit IRC | 12:28 | |

AStorm | I think tablet has its own power regulator, which should easily swallow 0,2V difference | 12:28 |
KotCzarny | someone should try 4x aa (nimh preferably) | 12:29 |
AStorm | yes, NiMH would be safer | 12:29 |

AStorm | pupnik: just drop in a buck power regulator (dirt cheap, like 0,5$) | 12:32 |
pupnik | i read the thoughtfix blogthread on it. | 12:33 |
AStorm | even a linear regulator could do, if you're feeling cheap | 12:34 |
AStorm | but then you'd get less power out of the batteries (like, 80%? and it'd heat up a bit) | 12:34 |
AStorm | like, a cheap LM2575S | 12:36 |
KotCzarny | http://www.goldengadgets.com/product_info.php?products_id=396{1}36 | 12:36 |
KotCzarny | this one is interesting | 12:36 |
KotCzarny | probably with builtin regulator | 12:36 |
KotCzarny | as it operates on 1 (one) AA | 12:37 |
KotCzarny | :) | 12:37 |
KotCzarny | and is a little cheaper too | 12:37 |
AStorm | and it drains the battery fast? | 12:37 |

*** lcuk2 has quit IRC | 12:38 | |

AD-N770 | soman: you can use playbin, gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file://<absolute path to file> | 12:39 |
KotCzarny | i'm willing to take a try | 12:39 |
KotCzarny | let's find shipping price | 12:39 |
KotCzarny | 2.15$ | 12:39 |
AStorm | I'd rather build one myself | 12:39 |
KotCzarny | hum | 12:39 |
AStorm | on 2x AA | 12:39 |
KotCzarny | do 6$ total | 12:39 |
soman | AD-N770: i tried playbin,, but im unable to redirect the video output... its coming in a different window | 12:39 |
*** kaie has joined #maemo | 12:40 | |
AStorm | so, that'd easily give me 800 mA | 12:40 |
AStorm | (with alkaline batteries - normal can go much higher, so can NiMH) | 12:40 |
AD-N770 | soman: gst-launch will create their own window, you need to write code to specify your app window if you need it | 12:40 |
KotCzarny | still, with 3Ah nimh you would get ~2h of work | 12:41 |
KotCzarny | on a single AA | 12:41 |
AStorm | you're funny | 12:41 |
pupnik | hmm maybe you'd really want 2 (parallel) x 4AA (serial) to handle the current | 12:41 |
AStorm | these cost more than it's worth | 12:41 |
AStorm | I'd rather buy the Li-Poly BP-4L then | 12:41 |
AStorm | pupnik: no | 12:41 |
AStorm | that's way too much | 12:41 |
AStorm | it'd provide *with alkalines* 800 mA | 12:42 |
pupnik | no NiMH | 12:42 |
AStorm | and direct 4,8V-6V | 12:42 |
AD-N770 | soman: http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-python/examples/play.py?view=markup | 12:42 |

KotCzarny | i know that it's nothing | 12:45 |
johnx | nevermind, it looks like htop is in the main maemo repository (not extras or -devel) | 12:45 |
AStorm | KotCzarny: it is possible that Nxxx have a real power regulator | 12:45 |
AStorm | which can do 20% | 12:46 |
KotCzarny | astorm, even if it wouldn't work as expected it would provide plug and a regulator for self-made project | 12:47 |

AStorm | we'll talk later :-) | 12:50 |
KotCzarny | hmm | 12:50 |
KotCzarny | interesting | 12:50 |
AStorm | I think LM350T plus some switch to pick the set of resistors would rock | 12:51 |
KotCzarny | can you beat the price? | 12:51 |

AStorm | KotCzarny: yeah, I can | 12:52 |
AStorm | 2 PLN per package of 5 | 12:52 |
KotCzarny | assembled? | 12:52 |
KotCzarny | :) | 12:52 |
AStorm | but I'll still have to build the case ;P | 12:52 |
AStorm | no | 12:52 |
AStorm | need a current limiter, I think 1A will do | 12:54 |
AStorm | that LM could be used for that | 12:54 |
AStorm | the only downside is the efficiency ;P | 12:54 |
AStorm | argh, no | 12:54 |
KotCzarny | don't skimp 1$ | 12:54 |
KotCzarny | get the >90% efficient one | 12:55 |
AStorm | it's minimal input voltage of 4,2V | 12:55 |

AStorm | note that with a plug change, I could use it for car charger too | 12:56 |
AStorm | but it's damn expensive ;P | 12:57 |
AStorm | and it's a step-up | 12:57 |

AStorm | that's large | 13:02 |
AStorm | what for if we have nice regulators? | 13:02 |
KotCzarny | 4xAA has a benefit of more juice | 13:02 |
KotCzarny | :) | 13:02 |
AStorm | 2x AA can get 4000 mAh | 13:02 |
AStorm | so? | 13:02 |
AStorm | or more | 13:02 |
KotCzarny | heh, at 1.2V :P | 13:02 |

AStorm | it's heavy as it is | 13:04 |
AStorm | for holding in a hand | 13:04 |
AStorm | bbml | 13:05 |
KotCzarny | btw. stepups have lower efficiency with lower Vin | 13:05 |

AStorm | wtf? | 13:06 |
KotCzarny | glass: with 90% efficiency it's 3600mAh @ 1.2v | 13:06 |
AStorm | 3,6V is 3x NiMh | 13:06 |
johnx | 3Whr vs 5.550 Whr (roughly) | 13:06 |
KotCzarny | but for that you would have to hack the battery | 13:06 |
johnx | wait, that can't be right | 13:06 |
KotCzarny | you have to divide | 13:07 |
KotCzarny | not multiply | 13:07 |

AStorm | battery is 3,7V, yes | 13:08 |
AStorm | 2-cell I think | 13:08 |
AStorm | maybe 4 cell | 13:08 |
KotCzarny | still, it's not 4000 | 13:08 |
KotCzarny | ok, 4000 with 2x2200 | 13:08 |
KotCzarny | :) | 13:08 |
AStorm | yeah, if we could just grab the cells... and correct charging | 13:09 |
*** ttmrichter_ has joined #maemo | 13:09 | |
AStorm | then it'd rock | 13:09 |
KotCzarny | i wonder if it would charge with 5V | 13:09 |
AStorm | you'd get ultralight expander, costing 125$ | 13:09 |
KotCzarny | :> | 13:09 |
KotCzarny | erm | 13:09 |
KotCzarny | with 3.6V | 13:09 |
AStorm | well, it will | 13:09 |
AStorm | but unless it's a smart battery, you'd fry it | 13:10 |
AStorm | I don't know if it's one | 13:10 |
AStorm | I think it is | 13:10 |
AStorm | as I've seen no li-poly charger inside N810 | 13:10 |
johnx | I used to use the pelican PSP external Li-Ion pack with my zaurus, until it got recalled as a fire risk... | 13:10 |
AStorm | hehehe | 13:10 |
KotCzarny | :> | 13:11 |
johnx | it made a great squealing noise when in use | 13:11 |

johnx | it annoyed everyone in the room | 13:11 |
AStorm | haha, 300MHz charger ;P | 13:11 |
AStorm | where certain harmonic is 15kHz | 13:11 |
AStorm | and another is 3kHz | 13:12 |
AStorm | :P | 13:12 |

dragorn | As far as wifi drivers, the chipset is already understood, it's a prism54 with a softmac. the problem is conexant put a bunch of custom stuff on it and stuck it on the SPI bus. The custom stuff makes calibration hard/obscured. | 16:43 |

hrw | lardman: or why was done in wrong way | 17:04 |
lardman | indeed | 17:05 |
hrw | mgedmin: iphone has nicer hardware then openmoko phones | 17:05 |
X-Fade | hrw: I don't think you will ever get the tech docs for the gsm modem in the iphone ;) | 17:06 |
lardman | hrw: but the fun is in making it work surely; not so much fun to have something that already works (imo anyway) | 17:06 |
hrw | X-Fade: officially I do not have openmoko one too | 17:06 |
lardman | hrw: though it's also not much fun not knowing how to get something to work... | 17:07 |
hrw | lardman: I would prefer to get opensourced maemo | 17:07 |
hrw | hacking open maemo would be probably more fun then writing from scratch 5th set of openmoko ideas | 17:08 |
X-Fade | Getting tech docs for hardware will always be hard if companies think that it is their IP. And I think they keep certain things under NDA because they have flaws.. | 17:09 |

*** Xxaxx has joined #maemo | 17:09 | |

hrw | X-Fade: at least they could make some steps to make it easier to hack for users | 17:10 |
lardman | X-Fade: do you think that really matters to them? The people they sell to will see the flaws when they get access to the docs, etc. | 17:10 |
hrw | X-Fade: I can use Poky on 770 or n810 but what sense it has without battery info? or with broken wifi? | 17:10 |
X-Fade | hrw: Let me think, sell 100M chips for symbian phones without troubles or sell a few openmokos.. | 17:11 |
lardman | hrw: well we can get battery info | 17:11 |
X-Fade | That is how hardware companies think.. | 17:11 |
lardman | hrw: just rather granular, but I understand your point. | 17:11 |
*** pleemans has quit IRC | 17:12 | |
hrw | X-Fade: and when they buy those 100M chips for symbian phones they get 100K of crap gps chips to use in anything for free. I think thats how n810 got gps -- no one in nokia wanted to use it :D | 17:12 |
X-Fade | Try to get that point across to the TI hardware department is not easy.. | 17:12 |
X-Fade | hrw: They work fine with symbian ;) | 17:12 |
lardman | I see they are opening up the newer chips though | 17:12 |
X-Fade | My n95 has a fix in 10 seconds. | 17:12 |

MangoFusion | mine tends to take minutes rather than seconds. though then again i usually don't have the maps open 24/7 | 17:18 |
lardman | Setting up AGPS infrastructure (or piggybacking) is the sort of thing that would be interesting to do if we had some more info about whether we could even achieve the end goal | 17:18 |
X-Fade | lardman: The symbian team already does it, the maemo team would need to implement the same. | 17:19 |
mgedmin | how? bluetooth to a phone? | 17:19 |
mgedmin | AGPS needs GSM or equivalent | 17:19 |

lardman | GPRS message from the base station probably | 17:20 |
lardman | fed by that supl.nokia.org server (iirc) | 17:20 |
X-Fade | mgedmin: geoclue could provide some info about your location. It could be used to lookup the info.. | 17:20 |
lardman | X-Fade: the looking up is not the issue, it's how to communicate that with the AGPS chip | 17:21 |
lardman | that's the sort of thing that Nokia could give us and people would enjoy (me at least) getting it to work | 17:21 |
X-Fade | lardman: I'm affaid that that info is only available under NDA from TI. | 17:23 |

GeneralAntilles | Should be damn simple. | 18:31 |
GeneralAntilles | Heck, I'm fairly certain somebody has done it. | 18:31 |

unixSnob | can gpsd access the gps device at the same time as another app (like mapper)? | 18:32 |

qwerty12 | I love Ubuntu, I use it as my main distro but I don't think it's really designed for the N8*0's. I think the packages available will be great though. | 19:57 |

Khertan_on_n810 | it s why i use debian | 20:00 |
qwerty12 | That's bad luck. My kernel's been updated a lot of times but it still works, the only thing that got killed for me is usbnet so I can't use N800 in usbnetworking mode anymore. | 20:00 |
qwerty12 | Ah, debian seems great too. | 20:00 |

qwerty12 | I can't decide whether this will be a good thing or a bad thing. More packages is always good but it means that Maemo may get less developers. If that PDF from the Mojo project is anything to do on, less developers doesn't sound good. At the end of the day, Maemo is designed for Internet tablets and the like and Ubuntu is for desktops. Even Ubuntu Mobile edition has hildon as the gui. | 20:04 |

GeneralAntilles | We have full flash on the built-in browser. | 20:21 |
qwerty12 | GeneralAntilles, Yeah the colours are in hex, supplied on the command line. I'll give it a go later, I've been reflashing initfs for most of the day so I don't really mind another go. | 20:21 |
GeneralAntilles | I haven't played with the initfs much | 20:22 |
GeneralAntilles | I assume I can change it on a booted system? | 20:22 |
qwerty12 | GeneralAntilles, no, the initfs is mounted read only. | 20:22 |
GeneralAntilles | Mount it somewhere else or change it in fanoush's flasher and reflash? | 20:23 |
qwerty12 | with initfs flasher, it can be done though if you reflash initfs. | 20:23 |
qwerty12 | Change it in fanoush's flasher. | 20:23 |
WorkingOnWise | nope. If I go to iscrybe.com with the built in browser and hit the login lin I see no login dialog. If I go there with minefield, I can log in but without the menus and popup keyboard working right it is not useable. | 20:23 |
qwerty12 | Before it asks to flash bootmenu.conf, open a new terminal and cd to initfs_flasher and cd to initfs in that. | 20:23 |

WorkingOnWise | has anyone got a clue how to get Opera 8 from OS2007 onto OS2008? I really need an AJAX capable browser that I can use on the IT. | 21:00 |
Khertan_on_n810 | microb is ajax enabled | 21:00 |
qwerty12 | WorkingOnWise, it would probably depend on Bora specific libs. | 21:01 |

*** murrayc has quit IRC | 21:01 | |

qwerty12 | WorkingOnWise, if you have linux on desktop computer, a good place to start is mounting the bora rootfs and reading the dpkg list for the opera packages. | 21:01 |
qwerty12 | but the final result probably wouldn't work. | 21:01 |

gribouille | GeneralAntilles, I have one for each paramter, but I need one with all the parameters | 21:04 |
GeneralAntilles | Why? | 21:04 |

qwerty12 | Meh, I think Khertan_on_n810 got it right with separate applets. I don't need every one of them. | 21:05 |

RST38h | pupnik: The display is 16bpp, so whatever code you have drawing 8bpp bitmap will have to do color translation | 21:39 |
djcb | i'm sure i can get you some better shots tomorrow | 21:39 |
pupnik | yes RST38h | 21:39 |
RST38h | pupnik: Color translation 1) takes time and 2) prevents it from using hardware blitter (usually) | 21:39 |
GeneralAntilles | Cool, that'd be excellent. | 21:39 |
RST38h | pupnik: SO my suggestion is to draw at 16bpp | 21:39 |
RST38h | You will be moving twice as many bytes, true, but at least it will have a chance to make use of the hw | 21:40 |
pupnik | same thing happens. the problem is with framebuffer sync and/or making sure that framebuffer controller does not try to update more than 256x240 | 21:40 |
*** _berto_ has quit IRC | 21:40 | |
*** jeddy3 has joined #maemo | 21:40 | |
lcuk | RST38h, technically the 8bit palette stuff must be optimised somewhere within sdl since its used by lots of applications and will likely be better in the general case than a single specific fix that can be put in. but i agree in principle what you are saying | 21:40 |
RST38h | lcuk: Generalized 8bit paletter will need table lookups | 21:40 |
RST38h | lcuk: And no matter how you optimize them, memory lookups suck on ARM | 21:41 |
lcuk | and how do you propose to do color lookups without a table? | 21:41 |
RST38h | Now, if you want to use a fixed 3:3:2 palette, there is a way... | 21:41 |
lcuk | you still need to say palette entry 27== RGB(65524) | 21:41 |
RST38h | You write a little piece of ARM code that shifts bits to make 5:6:5 colors | 21:41 |
lcuk | the table MUST exist somewhere | 21:42 |
pupnik | just recompiled it @ 16bpp jerkiness is slightly different looking at 19 and 21 fps | 21:42 |
pupnik | (it's changing one define - no big deal) | 21:42 |
RST38h | lcuk: the code looks longer and more complicated than table lookup, but because it is read in a pipeline it works faster | 21:43 |
lcuk | but in the specific case, doing SDL at 16bit is faster instantly because its not doing the conversion. however the conversion is required. i said this yesterday to pupnik then slept on it and the palette code is probably the simplest most general approach | 21:43 |
*** hfwilke has quit IRC | 21:43 | |
RST38h | lcuk: Heheh, you see, if his emulated system has 8bit video, it is probably palette based anyway ;) | 21:43 |
lcuk | but this isnt the problem as the arm can push many frames at this low resolution. the actual problem is the tearing | 21:43 |
RST38h | And it does not matter whether those emulated palette entries are 8bit or 16bit ;) | 21:44 |
pupnik | you could compile the source and run it | 21:44 |
pupnik | 16bpp | 21:44 |
pupnik | Average FPS: 60.004 | 21:44 |
RST38h | So, no, if he goes 16bpp, it will not cost him extra, most likely | 21:44 |
lcuk | back after tea | 21:44 |
pupnik | Underruns 122, UPS: 2.166 | 21:44 |
RST38h | pupnik: What was it at 8bpp? | 21:44 |
lcuk | palette entries ARE 16bit, there is a table of 256 of them | 21:44 |
pupnik | 16bpp | 21:45 |
pupnik | 16bpp | 21:45 |
RST38h | lcuk: Exactly. | 21:45 |
pupnik | but the framebuffer controller is clearly discarding updates | 21:45 |

pupnik | so i still don't know what's happening | 22:02 |
RST38h | Well, there is one more issue | 22:02 |
RST38h | Whatever goes on between OMAP and that Epson chip, the Epson chip still refreshes its display at 50-60Hz | 22:03 |
RST38h | So, whatever set of regions you are transferring to it, they can't transfer faster than that | 22:04 |

GeneralAntilles | PITA's euthanization rate is worse than any other stray protection agency. | 22:44 |
GeneralAntilles | (failed at spelling euthanization there for a little while. ;)) | 22:44 |
GeneralAntilles | (probably still failed anyway) | 22:44 |
lcuk | but do they have highest intake? | 22:45 |
GeneralAntilles | Also: s/PITA/PETA/ | 22:45 |
lcuk | just because X does more of Y does not mean they are any worse than other similar operations | 22:45 |
GeneralAntilles | Rate | 22:45 |

*** jebe_ has quit IRC | 23:12 | |
qwerty12_N800 | I ported synaptic but the nmap errors kept coming up with version 7 of libapt which was newer than the os2008 one. Aptitude was same problem. | 23:12 |
hrw|n810 | qwerty12_N800: no goes? simple recompile would be good for start but rather hard to use | 23:13 |
hrw|n810 | fscking maemo | 23:13 |
*** hugolp has quit IRC | 23:14 | |
Navi | What version apt libs does OS2008 use? | 23:14 |
qwerty12_N800 | I tried symlinking to maemo libs but missing symbols. The one with right librariies would crash with numap (smething like that) problems on startup. Worked in sbox fine though :( | 23:15 |
qwerty12_N800 | 6 something | 23:15 |
hrw|n810 | 6.3 | 23:15 |
qwerty12_N800 | Good news is that diablo should use 7 as the latest svn of app manager needs 7 to build. | 23:16 |
Navi | Etch uses 6.3 | 23:16 |

*** nuxlli has left #maemo | 23:17 | |
hrw|n810 | Navi: iirc os2008 follows etch versions | 23:17 |
Navi | Did you try to build against the maemo apt libs using the version of synaptic Etch currently uses? | 23:17 |
Navi | http://packages.debian.org/etch/synaptic | 23:18 |
GeneralAntilles | Yes, fysa. | 23:18 |
GeneralAntilles | It's out and working fine. | 23:18 |
fysa | nice | 23:18 |
Navi | Woo, fine. | 23:18 |
qwerty12_N800 | Navi, no. I didn't know such a version existed. If my memory serves me well, only a few modifications were needed for straight recompile. | 23:18 |
qwerty12_N800 | Navi, thx | 23:18 |
NOCmadman | quick question i just installed ssh and from xterm i am trying "ssh root@localhost" and it is giving a bad host key verification it is not even giving me a chance to enter the password. Can i simply delete the hostkey or is there something else i msut do first | 23:19 |
Navi | qwerty12_N800, I search the Etch repos before I look at the Ubuntu ones | 23:19 |

qwerty12_N800 | chrisak: yes | 23:25 |
qwerty12_N800 | NOCmadman: with hacks, yes | 23:26 |
Navi | My omweather is borked | 23:26 |
NOCmadman | what do i need to add as when i do ifconfig it only shows ipv4 | 23:26 |
NOCmadman | oh just now getting into it not ready for any real hacks just yet | 23:26 |
qwerty12_N800 | A new kernel and quite a few packages | 23:26 |
chrisak | ok. looks di | 23:26 |
chrisak | looks cooler then mine. i must have missed an update | 23:27 |
NOCmadman | im to scared to break it jsut yet to change the kernel will try it in a scratchbox first just to experience it before i touch any kernel changes on the actual device | 23:27 |
qwerty12_N800 | I don't think you can flash a kernel in sbox | 23:27 |
qwerty12_N800 | compile them certainly | 23:27 |

qwerty12_N800 | Ok, remove omweather for good measure. rm -rf /usr/share/omweather , rm -rf ~/apps/omweather and with gconf-editor, remove apps/maemo/omweather | 23:34 |
qwerty12_N800 | happens to me on a daily basis :( | 23:34 |
Navi | Yay, gmail's working | 23:35 |
Navi | Bah, it's complaining about certificates | 23:35 |
qwerty12_N800 | too many repo's and apps. app manager insists on caching all the packages. | 23:35 |
chrisak | navi, mine does too | 23:36 |
fysa | app manager is almost unusable in redpill mode ;) | 23:36 |
Navi | modest should get around to adopting a multi-page viewer | 23:36 |
hrw|n810 | GeneralAntilles: when diablo release? | 23:36 |
Navi | scrolling with a few thousand messages is a pain | 23:36 |
hrw|n810 | fysa: same in normal mode :) | 23:36 |
Navi | not a viewer, a multi-page list | 23:36 |
fysa | I would like something similar to the way Google Reader has 'never-ending scrolling' | 23:37 |
fysa | i.e. populate 50 items until you scroll near the bottom, then populate 50 more. | 23:37 |
KotCzarny | qwerty12: you should invest some time into unionfs | 23:38 |
qwerty12_N800 | CustomiseGoogle has a feature like that. | 23:38 |
KotCzarny | that way you can make a stable os, then just mount some other partition for changes | 23:38 |
qwerty12_N800 | KotCzarny: My bash skills are bad | 23:38 |
KotCzarny | then if you break something you just remove that overlaid partition | 23:38 |
KotCzarny | without actually reflashing anything | 23:38 |
KotCzarny | :) | 23:38 |
qwerty12_N800 | The module is fine though :) | 23:38 |
