Stskeepsthe problems with experiments and documenting them, is that eventually someone will stumble upon them and fail miserably at it00:16
Stskeepsbecause they weren't the target audience00:16
*** christefano_ has joined #maemo00:16
Stskeepswhich is why nuclear bomb blueprints shouldn't be on the net.00:16
Stskeeps:P00:16
mavhcwhich is why we should develop personal shield technology00:17
lcuknuclear bombs are kinda self solving00:18
BULLE_Stskeeps: the main issue is not to understand or get hold of the blueprints, a decent university physics student can do that, what you will have problems with, is getting hold of the stuff that goes b0000m00:18
BULLE_lcuk: darwin style ?00:18
lcukif they play for too long they die of radiation, if it works they burn in a fireball00:18
*** profoX_ has joined #maemo00:19
mavhcthe problem is refining it with centrifuges00:19

lcukevening lardman \o00:19
lardmanhi lcuk00:20
lardmanhow goes it?00:20
Stskeepswell, in this case it was about deblet 770 port. people have a tendancy to straight away trust guides and not realize the context/audience, and think documented experiments are absolute truths00:20
lcukquite good actually, i had something i wanna run by you, but its probably made your work account ping, hang on a mo00:20

zakkmHow's VNC on the n800 ?00:24
GAN800Fine.00:25
zakkmis it worth VNC'ing?00:25
zakkmand using apps then using mameo?00:25
zakkmLocal networked.. that is00:25
*** qwerty12_N800 has joined #maemo00:25
lcukwhich way round00:25
zakkmNokia controlling PC..00:26
lcukvnc is vnc then, obviously lower res screen than usual, but it pans and can be rotated00:26
zakkmor rdesktop will do too00:27
BULLE_zakkm: you dont get stellar performance from vnc client on a n80000:27
BULLE_zakkm: but its perfectly useable00:27
lardmanhey qwerty12_N80000:27
zakkmwill it be better than using maemo apps for instance? / same ??00:27
lardmanqwerty12_N800: a belated happy birthday to you00:27
BULLE_zakkm: it will of coursse be worse00:27
qwerty12_N800hi lardman :)00:27
zakkmah00:27
qwerty12_N800lardman, thanks :)00:27
BULLE_zakkm: atleast if you are thinking of screen update speed, and so on00:27
zakkmOver local networked im thinking too00:28
BULLE_zakkm: on the other hand, if you run some app eating 1024mb ram on the server, then, well, that wont run on the n800, so then its way faster00:28
zakkmnah just normal usage00:28
Proteousthe most annoying part of using rdesktop and vnc on the tablet is trying to manipulate tiny things on the screen with the stylus00:28
BULLE_zakkm: but imho its not worth running say firefox over vnc, or similar, in order to get faster webbrowser00:28
Proteoushard to be accurate00:28
BULLE_Proteous: yeah, and also using programs that are designed for extensive keyboard use00:28
zakkmah00:29
mavhcI don't find rdp that bad00:29
BULLE_well, its not bad, its useable, but i do prefer running stuff local on the n800 instead of via an rdp session00:29
BULLE_atleast for stuff that the n800 can handle00:29
Proteousactualy, since I finaly got a cable and updated my n810, the unintentionaly double tapping problem has gone away mostly, that helps a bit00:30
zakkmTrying to find little ways to speedup my n800 usage.00:30
zakkmwhat about like00:30
zakkmIf i have a document on my home PC right00:30
zakkmand i wanted to read it in the living room00:30
zakkmwould the performance be good enough?00:30
*** CptLaptop has quit IRC00:30
lcukvnc is not useful to speedup apps, but its useful in its original intent, to gain access to a remote system00:30
BULLE_lcuk: exactly00:30
lcukzakkm, why not just share doc on the network and view live though..00:30
BULLE_i use vnc and openvpn when im on the move00:31
zakkmtis an example00:31
zakkmjust normal usage stuff00:31
zakkmno web00:31
mavhcdepends, which is more resourcy, the data or the display of the data00:32
*** profoX__ has joined #maemo00:32
Proteousresourcy, I live it00:34
Proteouser, love00:34

Proteouswhenever that was...00:35
zakkm$125 :O00:35
zakkmi had to buy my 770 on ebay for $85 . .WSOD two weeks later00:35
Proteousyeah, mine eventualy WSODed00:35
Proteousso did my brothers00:36
zakkmthat sucks00:36
Proteousbut one of my other brothers who bought one is still going00:36
zakkmI didnt know they wsod'd when i first bought it00:36
ProteousMine was still under warrenty when it happened but I just got a n810 instead00:36
Proteouskeyboard FTW00:36
ProteousI use ssh a lot so it's worth it00:37
zakkmah00:37
zakkmI personally like the thumb keyboard :)00:37
Proteousit was usefull but it obscured the screen00:37
zakkmdidn't think of that.00:37
Proteousso you couldn't see what was going on when you were slowly typing something out00:37
zakkmprice is so much higher though00:39
zakkmthat's like the only difference isnt it?00:39
BULLE_WSOD ?00:39
ProteousI got mine as an open box from amazon warehouse for $32500:39
*** fyhozi has quit IRC00:39
zakkmwsod = white screen of death00:39
zakkmevantually the N770's stay white.. when you turn it on.. making it useless / garbage00:39
zakkmno way to fix00:39
BULLE_oh, never heard of, but i have never had an 770 either, so i guess that explains why00:39
BULLE_zakkm: oh, and what is it that breaks ?00:40
zakkmthe LCD itself i think00:40
BULLE_i see00:40
zakkmthe thing that connects the LCD to the motherboard or soemthing00:40
zakkmthat wire00:40
Proteouswell, probably one the chips that drives the LCD00:40
zakkmw.e nobody fixed it00:40
Proteousthe screen isn't totaly white, if you look at it at an off angle you can sorta see parts of the screen that are trying to render00:40

*** qwerty12_N800 has joined #maemo00:48
zakkmThis might sound weird but will a external usb harddrive work on the nokia n800?00:48
BULLE_but, an n810 is priced as a midrange cellphone here00:48
cyrus__Stskeeps - just starting the package install now. Will let you know in about 2 hours if it is good or not00:48
*** fiekia has joined #maemo00:48

zakkmIs ClawsMail fast on the n800 ?00:49
zakkmHey, if im in wifi .. is there a way that the nokia does something if i get a new email ?00:49
zakkmlike an applet tells me or something00:50
zakkmthinking gmail.00:50
sp3000there might be a notifier applet, dunno if it's good00:51
sp3000if you configure the mail client, it can blink the light and make a sound and show a list of new stuff00:51
zakkmIs Claws Mail quicker than built-in mail?00:52
zakkmsp3000: yeah thats it :P thanks00:52
zakkmI was thinking something like that00:52
zakkmdoes Mail Client have to be open though?00:52
* Stskeeps still loathes modest00:52
lcukzakkm, no1 can blame you for not making an informed choice :)00:52
zakkm?00:52
GAN800The 770's display controller would gte overvoltage on startup00:52
zakkmlcuk: ?00:52
GAN800I have two, and from Nov 2005 and one from woot and neither have failed.00:53
lcukyou have asked so many questions so far00:53
zakkmI know :(00:53
GAN800Stskeeps, why loathe?00:53
lcukdont worry at all, its best00:53
zakkmI like to know everything before i buy something.00:53
*** hellwolf has quit IRC00:53
lcukand your questions spark debate :)00:53
GAN800At least it's open source. . . .00:53
zakkmWhen i buy the nokia it will make me broke00:53
zakkmGAN800: my nokia n770 froze, i rebooted, BAM WSOD00:54
StskeepsGAN800: when i'm sitting on a gprs, the last thing i want for it is to suddenly not respond to my "cancel" commands00:54
Stskeepsor start talking about downloading 1000s of messages in another folder :P00:54
sp3000zakkm: no, the ui doesn't need to be up for it to check in the bg00:55

qwerty12_N800ShadowJK_, internet connectivity daemon00:58
zakkmDoes mail support attachments?00:59
zakkmlike adding attachments to your email?00:59
kpelnever tried attaching anything. but i think i did receive email with attachhments01:00
Stskeepshas DSME come out yet?01:00
Stskeeps:P01:00
ShadowJK_can't open source the connectivity thing, it's better than NetworkManager ;p01:00
Stskeepstrue01:00
qwerty12_N800oh for sure. nm is a tosser01:00
Stskeepsand that's the scary part01:00
zakkmUsing canola to play a song? does it take significantly more battery life than the builtin media player?01:01
kpelno idea01:02
kpelbtw, you don't work for the android team, do you? :P01:02
zakkmme?01:02
zakkmBesides its owned by Google, i really know nothing about Android01:02
lcukno, hes nokia market research01:02
lcukcheckin if we know our product ;)01:03
zakkmhaha01:03
cyrus__Stskeeps - as for your question..yes an N81001:03
zakkmCanola looks so good :)01:03
Stskeepscyrus__: alright01:03
kpeli find it a  bit slow and it takes up a lot of precious storage. too bad we can't select to install apps on the removable memory card01:04
zakkmdoes it get faster with release?01:04
*** ttmrichter has joined #maemo01:04
zakkmlike overtime will it get faster?01:04
lcukkpel, technically as a simple solution you could symlink any part of the root fs to a memory card01:05
zakkm:O its skinnibe01:05
lcuki believe..01:05
zakkmwouldnt you mount the SD into the directory? not symlink ?01:05
qwerty12_N800just be sure the sd is mounted in time when booting...01:05
lcukheh01:06
cyrus__Stskeeps - it has been going for a bit now and just sitting at Retrieving adduser01:06
cyrus__Stskeeps - anything I should be lookign for here?01:06
zakkmsymlink would still install to the internal wouldnt it?01:06
zakkmjust let your SD apps work too ?01:06
zakkmbut nothing would install to it?01:06
*** MoRpHeUz has quit IRC01:06
kpellcuk: true. and after every os upgrade i would have to repeat this workaround01:07
lardmanI think the point was to symlink something under /usr to the memory card01:07
lardmantherefore things would be installed there automatically01:07
cyrus__Stskeeps - since you said you did something with sudoers I was wondering if maybe this has some affect on the adduser package01:07
zakkmisn't it mount SD to /usr. .. though.. rather than symlink SD with internal /usr01:07
kpelyes, and after flashing a new os image the symlinks would be gone01:08
zakkmbut if you symlink .. it would install to both places..01:08
kpelzakkm: by default the SD is mounted i01:08
zakkmif you mount.. it would only install to SD01:08
kpelin /media/mmc101:08
zakkmyes but you can also mount it into /usr01:08
Stskeepscyrus__: ah, no, adduser and debootstrap comes before we do anything deblet-specific01:08
Stskeepscyrus__: right now you're just installing Debian for ARMEL01:08
Stskeepsafter that phase, we put packages on top to make it usable (ie, not a blank screen :P)01:09
lardmanzakkm: if you symlink to /usr/bin, lib, etc., it will only be installed to the directories you symlinked01:09
lardmanbut yes, mounting it is another option01:09
* lcuk sparks debates with his wayward tongue and incorrect syntax. 01:09
kpelzakkm: if you mount the card on /usr you lose all the default contents of /usr until you unmount the card01:09
cyrus__Stskeeps - ok...i will leave it for a bit and see if it continues or just sits there01:09
lcukat least you lot knew what i meant even if i got the details wrong ;)01:09
*** ywwg has quit IRC01:09
zakkmyes01:10
zakkmthats why you clone /usr into the SD first01:10
zakkmthen the internal memory /usr will be empty01:10
zakkmwont take any space01:10
zakkmand you mount to the SD into /usr01:10
* Stskeeps heads to sleep01:10
lcukStskeeps, good night :)01:10
lardmanYou'd have to check that the device can boot without /usr anyway (theoretically it should work, but you never know)01:10
zakkmsure SD will always be used, but isnt that what you wanted? no space in/usr ? "unlimited" storage in /usr01:10
zakkmSD will alwy sneed to be in*01:11
kpelbut this way you don't use the sd to extend the storage space but to replace internal storage with external01:11
*** benh has quit IRC01:11
zakkmyes01:11
lcukzakkm, aint that like old computers needing to leave a certain floppy in01:11
zakkmisnt that what the question was?01:11
lcukthats not exactly a big deal :001:11
lcuk) even01:11
lardmanextending is hard without symlinking each app individually a la ipkg-link, or using a special fs01:11
zakkmsymlink will require space in both internal and external ... cloning and mounting wont..01:11
lardmanzakkm: symlink the directory!01:12
zakkmah w.e lol01:12
*** Maemonaut has quit IRC01:12

zakkmthat way we wont need a new NIT -.-01:13

zakkmqwerty12_N800: how well does mpd in terms of battery life?01:16
qwerty12_N800zakkm, no idea, i never really test for battery life but cpu usage and mem usage  with mpd are very low01:17
qwerty12_N800kpel, i prefer walkman phones :)01:17
*** cokady has joined #maemo01:18
zakkmqwerty12_N800: back in my gentoo days, I used mpd and sonata.01:18
zakkmbut i was curious about using mpd on my n800 ..01:18
zakkmand using my home pc as a mpd server01:18
qwerty12_N800sure, it works. i use mmpc + mpd on the tablet and sonata on the pc for controlling the n800. but sonata is available for maemo too01:19
zakkmyeah i was just going to say i would probably use sonata01:20
zakkmI used it for PC and the maemo port looks really goodd01:20
zakkmI was just curious on how well it compares to the actual media player builtin app01:20
zakkmif i would get better battery on sonata/mpd vs builtin media player app01:20
qwerty12_N800the mpd compile for tablets is pretty old so i took the time to compile the latest mpd and recompile all the audio libs to use the vfp etc but i lost all my debs :/01:21
zakkmHaha01:22
zakkmI used 0.13 for PC i believe.01:23
qwerty12_N800yeah, that's the one i compiled for maemo. you can get 0.12 from the garage01:23

zakkmyou try sonata on the nit?01:24
qwerty12_N800yep, works well except for slow startup time. but i blame it being in python for that.01:25
qwerty12_N800(this was with python-launcher running)01:25
zakkmeek01:26
zakkmwhats mmpc like? never used it/ havent heard much about it01:26
qwerty12_N800it's ok, i like it, looks a bit like the built in player. it's fast but playlist/library management skills leave a lot to be desired01:28
zakkmThis might sound dumb but can i have mpd on my pc at home.. and make it stream music to my nokia NIT ?01:29
zakkmand music outputs from my nokia?01:29

zakkmno01:30
zakkmi was tihknig being in school . .and having my home music collection.01:30
zakkmnot using the n800 as a soundcard for pc01:30
zakkmso like sonata on my n800 shows my home music collection.. and when i play a song.. it "streams" from my home pc01:31
zakkmand plays on my nokia.01:31
qwerty12_N800you could try the icecast feature of  mpd01:31
zakkmisnt that just radio?01:31

trickie|workyep, which i think emulates block devices from raw flash14:11
trickie|workso to access the raw flash as a block device14:12
crashanddieyeah, but isn't that like crap?14:12
trickie|worksdcards usually have block device emulation in hardware14:12
*** tekojo has quit IRC14:12
crashanddieusing mtdblock is a very bad idea because what it basically does if you change any sector of you mtdblockX device, it reads the whole corresponding eraseblock into the memory, erases the eraseblock, changes the sector in RAM, and writes the whole eraseblock back. This is very straightforward. If you have a power failure when the eraseblock is being erased, you lose all the block device sectors in it. The flash will likely decay soon14:12
crashanddiebecause you will wear few eraseblocks out - most probably those ones which contain FAT/bitmap/inode table/etc.14:12
trickie|workcrashanddie: not sure of the pro's or con's but i guess it makes it easier to make raw flash behave similar to other storage devices14:13
trickie|worki thought the fs did the wear-levelling14:13
Stskeepscrashanddie: aren't you thinking about jffs and not mtd?14:13
Stskeepsjffs has the whole eraseblock stuff14:14
crashanddiehey, that's just a copy paste from linux-mtd.infradead.org :P14:14

Stskeepslook at your own link14:17
*** tekojo has joined #maemo14:18
crashanddieStskeeps, eh?14:19
crashanddieStskeeps, mtdblock != mtd subsystem14:19
trickie|worki guess ubi is a next generation mtdblock14:20
*** hannesw has joined #maemo14:21
trickie|workand iguess they use mtdblock now cause there are not many alternatives14:21
crashanddieStskeeps, mtdblock translates an MTD to conform to a regular block device. UBI accesses the raw flash, and thus uses it as a regular MTD device14:21
crashanddiemtdblock gives you access to sectors, which are mapped into a single eraseblock. UBI uses eraseblocks directly14:22

*** geaaru has quit IRC15:21
RST38hWhen you have your tablet laying somewhere and an email comes, it will start flashing that little envelope icon at the left bottom corner of the screen right?15:22
hrwRST38h: I had that way15:22
RST38hWhat happens with the battery in this case? Will it drain the battery faster while flashing the icon?15:22
RST38hI know for sure that enabling scroll in the RSS reader applet drains the battery really fast. What about the email notification?15:23
luogniRST38h, i think (hope) the flashing will be disabled when the screen go black15:23
lcukif you are sending data to the lcd on a regular basis then yeah it will be active and will drain faster  (thats common sense, not surei f its true)15:23
RST38hbut the real question is: DOES IT flash the icon when the screen is off?15:25
solmumahaand does it stop flashing after a while?15:25
lcukRST38h, same can be said for things like titlebar clock or the flashing cursor on searchbox15:26
RST38hlcuk: Title bar clock is harmless - it updates once a minute15:26
Stskeepsi still wonder if X refreshes the screen while screen off honestly15:26
RST38hFlashing searchbox cursor I have been suspecting for a long time15:26
luogniit doesn't stop after a while, i receive some time mails during the night and in the morning it's still flashing. i just think that it doesn't flash when the screen is off because i never have low battery in the morning..15:27
Stskeepsthat would be a simple hack/improvement15:27
RST38hBut it is not usually activated15:27
lcukare you sure...  if its out of sync timing wise, it could display  the same minute number for nearly 2 minutes15:27
*** lmoura has joined #maemo15:27
RST38hwell, rss reader with scrolling brings it down for sure, even with the screen off15:27
*** CptLaptop has joined #maemo15:28
RST38hSo, I guess it is still refreshing unless application tells it not to15:28
Stskeepsmaybe a simple screensaver that goes blank would help on things?15:28

johnxl7, my adata cards are not holding up so well19:52
l7i have an adata and haven't had a problem with19:52
l7johnx: what is wrong with them?19:52
GAN800I'd just go with the newegg reviews for any particular card.19:52
johnxgetting I/O errors when using them with ext2/319:52
johnxunder normal use they're fine19:52
johnxnormal = digital camera or music storage, formatted vfat19:52
l7yeah, the newegg reviews for the adata transcend and patriot are all good, though there are a few dissenting voices19:53

*** zimmerle has quit IRC19:56
summatusmentishmm... is there still a market for n810s?19:56
l7i guess the n800 format function format SD media as vfat then19:56
l7bleh, editing19:56
johnxl7, correct. probably fat16 for <=2GB cards and fat32 for >=4GB cards19:57
l7any idea why the adata cards have issues with ext2/3?19:57
Stskeepssummatusmentis: probably19:58
l7i like the idea of using an SD card as a USB boot device19:59
johnxl7, I'm not sure if it has to do with the fs, or that they tend to have badblocks that only show up under heavier write usage19:59
johnxthe fs thing could be a red herring when in fact they might not have many spare blocks reserved to cover failing blocks19:59
johnx^conjecture^19:59
l7hmm there's some specs on the adata at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211245 it says it has the card has "Enhanced DSC function"20:00

lardmanderf: :) ok, just asking as I thought I'd borrow code to align images for the pdf417 code21:36
derfBecause you're doing things online, you have a well-defined path for the 1-D optimization of an HMM to follow.21:36
derflardman: It's very dependent on the finder patterns and other details of the QR code.21:37
lardmanderf: ok21:37
lcukderf, thanks for the tip :) then i dive back into it and am scratchin my head about it ill look more :)21:37
derfYou can certainly pull out the code that actually does the projections, and there's some other geometry stuff that might be reusable.21:37
qwerty12_N800Stskeeps, the nice thing is that i don't need to run a modified kernel with it. they do have a speed patch for aufs that is used with a patched kernel that can raise performance though21:38

*** SDuensin has joined #Maemo21:39
*** _berto_ has quit IRC21:39
derfI assume for PDF417 you'd be trying to identify the quiet zone/start pattern and fit lines to the edges of the pattern.21:40
lardmanbasically yes that's my thought21:41
derfNot too difficult, but a lot harder to pick out the pattern with a lot of background clutter.21:42
lardmanI thought a number of horizontal lines to establish if the pattern exists, then to establish the positioning of the ends, then work up those to the tops and work out the top & bottom21:42
derfYeah, certainly a lot easier than the datamatrix one.21:44
derfI would want to handle a pattern in general position, not just approximately horizontal, but that's just me.21:44
lardmanthe wonders of 1.5D ;)21:44
lardmanyou mean for the initial search?21:45
derfIt's not that datamatrix is 2D, it's that it has no equivalent for the start codes/finder patterns that you can search for in the image.21:45
derflardman: Yes.21:45
lardmanderf: Ideally one would perform arbitrary searches for the start bars, however quick is better than perfect, the user can just make sure he aligns it approximately21:46
*** aportela has quit IRC21:47
derfWell, the ratios between segment lengths in the start codes should be somewhat insensitive to rotation.21:47
derfYou just need to consider more than horizontal lines by themselves.21:47
derfqrdec starts with just horizontal+vertical, though I think it would be more robust with diagonal as well.21:48
lardmanto the first point, exactly; the second - yes, but horizontal lines will establish the gradient of the end bars from which to work out the angle, etc.21:48
lardmanah I see21:48
lardmanyes, certainly worth adding in as it shouldn't add much more overhead (he says) ;)21:48
derflardman: Right... you'd probably be interested in the line fitting code in qrdec.21:49
lardmancool, will take a look21:49
derfParticularly the ransac bit, though you'll probably have to adapt that a bit, as its dependent on some internal data structures for convenience.21:49
derfAnd a lot of the stuff from the initial finder pattern search should carry over for your start code search, though I don't know if it's worth making fully general search code, or just keeping two similar but distinct routines.21:50
lardmanprobably worth keeping them separate, the extra code will be small and at least they can then be optimised for a given barcode type if needed21:51
derfRight. That's only a hundred lines or so, anyway.21:51

Stskeepslcuk: mine was firstrun as well23:20
lcukStskeeps, so is it fine now/23:20
aalonsomy n810 is working again :)23:20
zakkmlcuk: did you create liqbase or are you porting it?23:21
lcuk100% native on the device (even compiling on it)23:21
Stskeepslcuk: yeah23:21
lcukhmmm then23:21
zakkmah, wish i could afford a n81023:22
*** p| has joined #maemo23:22
lcukzakkm, actually i tell a lie, i started in vmware scratchbox but got annoyed, so i installed gcc on device and have used it ever since23:22
zakkmhaha23:22
lcuki dont code most of the time with it lol - i use ssh23:22
*** smyows has quit IRC23:22
zakkmwhat is it coded in?23:22
lcukthough the graffiti wall is a child of the dev centre at linuxtag :)23:22
lcukc23:22
zakkmi know this sounds really weird and probably very stupid but you know like clustering right? to give instructions to another PC..23:24
Stskeepslcuk: your multitouch stuff might actually work23:24
zakkmi think its called clustering23:24
zakkmin mac its xgrid ?23:24
zakkmWould that technically work on the N800?23:25
lcukshould do yeah23:26
lcukStskeeps, :) it works well enough as proof of concept23:26
moontigerzakkm, if you wrote a client that took work loads and shared them out it would work for sure23:26
zakkmlike use an pc/server.. to make your n800 faster.23:26
moontigerlcuk, can u actually detect multiple touches o the screen?23:27
moontigeri didnt think the hardware reported them23:27
Stskeepsit's a neat approximation23:27
Stskeepslcuk: what kind of algo do you use for it?23:28
lcukno moontiger, i fake it - if you press and hold with your thumb, then touch with your finger the cursor jumps to centre midpoint between thumb and finger. oh, just read the notes i put a minute ago23:28
lcukStskeeps, just a simple one, but its been rolling around my head for a while23:28
moontigeri did read them23:29
pupnik810hahaha wayfinder doesnt check free space when sling map23:29
pupnik810dling23:29
pupnik810owch23:29
lcukpupnik810, least of troubles, if you are on 810 and it fills the mmc2 then you are screwed unless you have repaired it previously23:29
moontigerlcuk, so thats a "glitch" in the hardware that you're taking advantage of?23:29
Stskeepslcuk: why do i think of on screen keyboard?23:29
*** aalonso has left #maemo23:29
Stskeepshold down shift, press other buttons23:29
lcukno, the hardware simply returns the average23:29
moontigerand the average in this case is the mid-point23:30
lcukif you know there is a single fixed point you can then take the average into account and use your other finger23:30
pupnik810lcuk, oooops!23:30
moontigerwow thats a neat trick!!23:30
lcukyes it is - pupnik810 remember the multitouch thing i tried to explain at linuxtag23:30
lcukwell ^^^ i implemented it and it seems to work ;023:31
pupnik810coolll23:31
Stskeepslcuk: i think you might be able to expand on this, maybe filter probabilities of thumb moving and stuff :P23:31
zakkmyou all went to linuxtag?23:31
qwerty12_N800lcuk, you've made darius jack happy23:31
lcukyes, and sts i need to make sure i dont try to JUMP! when i have already detected a single moving finger23:31
moontigerStskeeps, or maybe note the original (thumb) position and lock it and only look for the other touch changing?23:31
Stskeepsperhaps23:32
lcukqwerty12_N800, feck off lol - i tried to explain these things to him but he didnt listen23:32
Stskeepsthere's definately some algorithmic possibilities23:32
qwerty12_N800lcuk, lol :p23:32
Stskeepslcuk: better make a patent ;P23:32
lcukmoontiger, it does that, once it detects the cursor has jumped beyond a certain radius, it moves into flickermode - this has thumb and finger positions and tries to keep them working23:32
lcuksod the patent :) i just want some security23:32
*** oilinki3 has quit IRC23:33
qwerty12_N800lcuk, no software patents in europe!!!23:33
qwerty12_N800oops, stskeeps23:33
lcukits open source and i want all this to be used23:33
qwerty12_N800:p23:33
Stskeepsqwerty12_N800: if it has to do with hardware interfacing..23:33
derfqwerty12_N800: You don't actually believe that fantasy, do you?23:33
lcukthe more this device is used and the more we can do with it the better it will become23:33
lcukthis is why im so flucked off with the glitches23:33
Stskeepslcuk: there's possibilities for maybe using a bayesian model for calculating probabilities this value is useful23:33
qwerty12_N800derf, nope, just felt like saying it :p23:33
lcukStskeeps, keep thinking please :) i have only just started an idea23:34
lcukderf! you would be an ideal person to examine what ive started23:34
lcukwould you install liqbase and try to be amazed at the multitouch thing23:34
lcuksee here: http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showpost.php?p=233054&postcount=14423:35
derfI would if my tablet was not plugged into a wall 25 miles away.23:35
lcukand liqbase.net for the package :)23:35
lcukdamn technicalities!23:35

lcukof course gan :D23:37
Stskeepsqwerty12_N800: it's mainly because that's how i work. if people appreciate my work, i know which directions to go in and it strokes my ego enough to keep working on it23:37
lcukim feelin a bit down about the glitches and need cheerin up ;)23:37
Stskeepselse i get bored23:37
GAN800I could give you about 200 of mine and still be out in fron of Benson.23:37

lcukawwww Stskeeps i use liqbase so much ive knackered the screen - it doesnt work with fingers any more23:38
* GAN800 iz pro23:38

lcukpupnik810, not really, it does what i want as fast as i want it - the only thing i see changing when i get the new one is being able to code in c++23:39

*** chenca has quit IRC23:40
moontigerlcuk how do i play with the multi-touch?23:40

lcukits really nothing special, just indicating what its detected23:41
GAN800By the way, pupnik, who do you want me to convince to package up all of your awesome for Extras?23:41
moontigerholy crap thats cool :)23:41

Stskeepsmaemo already supports c++? :P23:42
pupnik810GAN800, dunno - ill push out a new batch of releases now23:42
moontigeryah i know it does but with a huge assed bunch of libs23:42
lcukStskeeps, theres plenty of grunt in the cpu to model it correctly, all i am doing is selecting a breakpoint for the stroke - the first N points are the starting thumb, then everything after is halfway to the finger, it is then filtered23:42
Stskeepstrue23:42
lcukStskeeps, yeah it does, its just slow to compile23:43
Stskeepslcuk: just putting ideas out there23:43
lcukits beyond my frustration threshhold23:43
Stskeepsconsider distcc'ing to a desktop with same gcc version, from codesourcery?23:43
moontigeri think im going to have to go out to the park for a bit ... the weather here is gorgeous and sunny and warm :)23:43
*** emma has quit IRC23:43
lcukStskeeps, i do main coding from a desktop already, but its windows - ive got vmware available to do the grunt but i hate actually editing within vmware23:44

moontigeri only use windows for windows dev work23:46
zakkmMac is the best :) ( Runs on Mac )23:46
lcukxp with all the funky crap is slow as well - i keep ontop of whats needed and it runs wel23:46

lcukdev work in windows - .net?23:46
moontigermfc / atl / some .net ... desktop and mobile23:47
