TokyoDan | Mornin' everybody. What shells are used in N810 user and root accounts? Bourne, bash, korn? | 01:29 |
*** ywwg has quit IRC | 01:30 | |
orangey | TokyoDan: good question. | 01:33 |
orangey | TokyoDan: why not just busybox? | 01:34 |
orangey | is that a shell? | 01:34 |
melmoth | /etc/password says /bin/sh , it belong to busybox | 01:34 |
l7 | doesn't the n810 use ash as the shell? | 01:35 |
l7 | that's what the n800 uses and the OS should be the same | 01:35 |
AstralStorm | wrong | 01:37 |
AstralStorm | they both use busybox sh of sorts | 01:37 |

*** croppa has quit IRC | 01:42 | |
orangey | different in what sense? | 01:43 |
orangey | # vs $? | 01:43 |
orangey | that's standard distinction between root and non-root | 01:43 |
TokyoDan | Yes. and isn't "sh" bourne? so maybe busybox is a clone. | 01:43 |
orangey | sh can be anything | 01:43 |
TokyoDan | That's all? | 01:43 |
TokyoDan | I thought it was standardized that sh is the brompt for bourne. | 01:44 |
orangey | not at all. | 01:44 |
orangey | sh is probably the least standard. | 01:44 |
orangey | and will generally be hijacked by whatever the default shell is | 01:44 |
orangey | perhaps at some point it was. | 01:44 |
orangey | $ ls -l /bin/sh | 01:44 |

TokyoDan | Thanks. | 01:46 |
orangey | np | 01:46 |
TokyoDan | Now I wonder where the environments variables are kept. | 01:46 |
orangey | basically what we we were saying | 01:46 |
orangey | the variables are generally kept in .profile | 01:46 |
orangey | not sure specifically for busybox | 01:47 |
*** uncorq has quit IRC | 01:47 | |
TokyoDan | Well now I know what to search for when looking for shell script syntax/commands. | 01:48 |
orangey | exactly! | 01:48 |
orangey | there are subtle differences that can get infuriating if you don't realize that busybox =/= bash | 01:48 |
TokyoDan | supposedly the busybox guys hang out at #uclibc | 01:49 |
orangey | no idea | 01:50 |
TokyoDan | Well I've been playing with the $PATH variable in .profile so that I can run an executable Python script from my home directory but no matter what I do I get command not found errors. | 01:50 |
orangey | but I would doubt you need to ask them for much unless you're doing some pretty low-level coding | 01:50 |
TokyoDan | Yeah, the wiki is best. | 01:51 |
orangey | I have to head out, but good luck with it. if you make sure that the environmental variables work, then just google around to see. | 01:51 |
*** chelli has quit IRC | 01:51 | |

orangey | I just installed scratchbox. | 04:03 |
orangey | but I can't seem to do much with the armel version | 04:03 |
orangey | no network, etc. | 04:03 |
orangey | how do I set it up so it looks just like my n810? | 04:03 |
GeneralAntilles | Don't | 04:04 |
GeneralAntilles | The testing environment is pointless and a waste of time. | 04:04 |
GeneralAntilles | Just test on the tablet. | 04:04 |
orangey | GeneralAntilles: well, I am trying to do this for developers sans tablet. | 04:06 |
orangey | for example, I have a bug I'm trying to work on. | 04:07 |
GeneralAntilles | The "emulation" really isn't emulation | 04:07 |
GeneralAntilles | it's about as fake of a tablet environment as you can get | 04:07 |
orangey | bug's here: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3824 | 04:07 |
GeneralAntilles | You don't set it up like the tablet. | 04:07 |
orangey | The Callcentric people are willing to play. | 04:07 |
GeneralAntilles | There's emulation being worked on | 04:07 |
GeneralAntilles | but it's not ready yet | 04:08 |
orangey | and I want them to have something to call from instead of always asking me to make the calls, etc. | 04:08 |
orangey | GeneralAntilles: is it in any way possible just to get rtcomm on there and working to make test calls? | 04:08 |
orangey | i.e., sound and such? | 04:08 |
GeneralAntilles | It sounds like a NAT issue to me. | 04:08 |

*** mardi__ has joined #maemo | 04:08 | |
GeneralAntilles | No, there's no chance of that working. | 04:08 |

infobot | GeneralAntilles meant: Eh, it is what it is | 04:09 |
GeneralAntilles | Pick up a used N800. | 04:09 |
orangey | GeneralAntilles: anyhow: You're saying it's probably a NAT issue? | 04:09 |
GeneralAntilles | Almost always is with SIP weirdness. | 04:09 |
orangey | GeneralAntilles: how do I debug it further? Because my calls work with other services. | 04:09 |
orangey | and, in fact, my calls work with Callcentric with *other numbers* | 04:09 |
orangey | GeneralAntilles: Anyhow, I'm motivated to get this working, since Callcentric is my primary phone number, and the current arrangement is a complete nuissance (I have to use Click2Dial) | 04:12 |
orangey | if you wish to play with it / test it / whatnot, I'll gladly put some money on your callcentric account | 04:12 |
orangey | For that matter, is there such a thing as maemo bounties? | 04:13 |

GeneralAntilles | The one that Nokia ships them with. | 05:01 |

GeneralAntilles | Stskeeps, why community suicide? | 10:12 |
Jaffa | Morning, all | 10:13 |
Stskeeps | GeneralAntilles: well initial thought after sending the mail, but that's probably just to deal with low self esteem :) | 10:13 |
GeneralAntilles | Stskeeps, I can't image where that'd be coming from. :) Those all sounded like things the community would eat up. ;) | 10:14 |
Jaffa | Didn't seem too outlandish | 10:14 |
Stskeeps | and it would be a huge boost for maemo really.. i -think- i'm right in my assumption that there's no other real "good" user-oriented platforms than maemo for low cpu/power devices | 10:15 |
*** Disconnect has quit IRC | 10:16 | |

Stskeeps | hehe, executive summary | 10:18 |
Stskeeps | we'll see if the nokia people takes the bait first, otherwise it doesn't matter that much to making it structured | 10:18 |
GeneralAntilles | Quim used the argument that neither Ubuntu nor Debian target armv6 | 10:18 |
GeneralAntilles | That kinda seems like bull to me | 10:19 |
GeneralAntilles | I mean, they just gotta recompile, right? | 10:19 |
Stskeeps | yeah | 10:19 |
GeneralAntilles | Well, problem is, the people empowered to make major decisions like that generally don't frequent the lists. | 10:20 |
GeneralAntilles | and giving Quim something concrete to point to will help. | 10:21 |
GeneralAntilles | I'd like to hear what Eero and Igor think, though. | 10:21 |
Stskeeps | yeah, they seem to be closer to the core, - i'd like to see some community comments as well so it's just not a dream by a few people | 10:21 |
GeneralAntilles | Well, practically speaking, what does it mean for most people? | 10:22 |
GeneralAntilles | More software, easier development? | 10:22 |
GeneralAntilles | I can't imagine anybody being against that. ;) | 10:22 |

Stskeeps | even if it's microsoft, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-IRspSs-qw , they have the right idea | 10:33 |
Stskeeps | (look for tablets in there too) | 10:33 |
Stskeeps | and honestly, netbooks is just a continuation of the "PC" model, whereas a paradigm shift is needed | 10:34 |

t_s_o | hrmf, why am i getting the feeling that canola is doing to the tablets what arcohs are doing to the pmp, but in reverse? or maybe i should say full circle, as i sometimes feel as if canola is a os running on top of a os... | 11:12 |
*** `Mace has joined #maemo | 11:13 | |
t_s_o | ugh, now im thinking that if nokia took canola, put microb and a calendar inside it and presented it as fremantle, a lot of the community would hail it as a gift from god... | 11:15 |
melmoth | is canola free software yet ? | 11:16 |
GeneralAntilles | melmoth, technically, yes. | 11:16 |

RST38h | Jaffa: IT helpdesk? =) | 11:47 |
qwerty12 | Jaffa: I'm more inclined to think it's because he can't think of anything more to provide articles on. I mean, come on, his view of the "future of maemo" isn't a tutorial. | 11:47 |

* lcuk is at a very difficult crossroads | 13:05 | |
GAN800 | t_s_o, wait for Fremantle and you can patch it. | 13:05 |
GAN800 | lcuk, take the fork in the road. | 13:05 |
Stskeeps | lcuk: wife went "tablet or me"? :P | 13:06 |
lcuk | well one direction involves installing linux on desktop and building something in C for linux desktop, the other involves sticking with windows and writing something in VB | 13:06 |
t_s_o | GAN800: right now, fremantle holds little appeal to me. until we get confirmed that it will be available on the existing tablets, im going for a pandora :( | 13:06 |
GAN800 | Linux, baby! | 13:06 |
GAN800 | t_s_o, the Pandora practically is an N900. . . . | 13:07 |
* lcuk wants a nokia - they HAVE to get us a decent camera on this next model | 13:07 | |
* Stskeeps really dislikes the fact we have no actual idea about what fremantle really looks like except for various hints | 13:07 | |
GAN800 | Stskeeps, problem is, Nokia doesn't know either. | 13:07 |
* lcuk has a feeling that nokia doesnt know what fremantle looks like yet either apart for various hints | 13:07 | |
GAN800 | Remember, the mockups at the Summit weren't anywhere near finalized. | 13:08 |
Stskeeps | that's true | 13:08 |
Stskeeps | i meant more like system arch though | 13:08 |
melmoth | i would rather have a decent gps than a decent cam | 13:08 |
qwerty12 | Hmm, looks like maemo may be supporting vala? | 13:08 |
GAN800 | Stskeeps, December. | 13:09 |
lcuk | i think your mailing last night was pretty clean sts - but i still think a pretty front end ontop is desirable | 13:09 |
lcuk | qwerty12, its on its way | 13:09 |
* lcuk likes vala | 13:09 | |
Stskeeps | GAN800: the packages list of fremantle sdk seemed horridly boring though | 13:09 |
qwerty12 | lcuk: ah, cool :). I hear vala is nice except for the compile time :p | 13:09 |
lcuk | yeah - get that licked and we are rocking | 13:09 |
t_s_o | optionally, nokia open sources everything they can (no closed source "differenciators") of diablo, and hands it all over to the community... | 13:09 |
Stskeeps | probably not going to happen | 13:10 |
* lcuk might consider ondemand compilation or *shock* a scripting language | 13:10 | |
lcuk | t_s_o, why not simply use the existing OSS variants out there | 13:10 |
GAN800 | t_s_o, there's zero incentive | 13:10 |
Stskeeps | lcuk: pretty frontend of the system or the pretty front end as in a wiki outlining it more structured? | 13:10 |
lcuk | theres no real need to open source what they have its just a case of finding the already open rplacements | 13:10 |
GAN800 | Nokia doesn't open source dead codebases. | 13:10 |
lcuk | Stskeeps, front end ui | 13:11 |
lcuk | GAN800, agreed - it would be the wrong thing to do | 13:11 |
Stskeeps | lcuk: think putting the line at hildon is sane | 13:11 |
Stskeeps | then there's room for play | 13:11 |
lcuk | better to find in progress open things | 13:11 |
t_s_o | so, how about a open replacement for microb? | 13:11 |
Stskeeps | t_s_o: tear, midori.. | 13:11 |
lcuk | t_s_o, theres plenty being tried - one will emerge as the winner | 13:11 |
GAN800 | t_s_o, MicroB is open . . . | 13:11 |
GAN800 | You mean tablet-browser-ui | 13:12 |
t_s_o | semantics... | 13:12 |

lcuk | heh root canal on sts's brainstem | 13:14 |
GAN800 | t_s_o, they don't refer to it as MicroB | 13:14 |
GAN800 | MicroB is just the engine. | 13:15 |
GAN800 | The community uses it for the whole thing. | 13:15 |
lcuk | ok, point from all this: we need a decent browser and the current one looks long in the tooth and doesnt make our nokias shine | 13:15 |
t_s_o | well, everywhere i read about it, the browser is called microb, so somewhere the message must have gotten garbeled... | 13:15 |
GAN800 | Who wants to discuss 'Mozilla based browser for Maemo' | 13:16 |
* lcuk thinks big fat bloated desktop code is overbloat | 13:16 | |
GAN800 | Anyway, if you're talking source, it's either MicroB (the open engine) or tablet-browser-ui (the closed ui) | 13:16 |
* lcuk seeks nimble code | 13:16 | |
t_s_o | a engine without a ui is virtually useless :( | 13:17 |

lcuk | i REALLY want to just jump to a linux touchscreen desktop | 13:20 |
lcuk | without messing, preinstalled from scratch all nicely done and works with touch :) | 13:20 |
lcuk | asus eee desktop here i come :) | 13:20 |
lcuk | THAT will be when i jump from windows | 13:20 |
Stskeeps | lcuk: i use a windows xp desktop, linux tablet, freebsd servers, solaris servers, -- all the right tools for the job | 13:20 |
lcuk | yeah sts | 13:21 |
GAN800 | Touch makes zero sense to me on the desktop. | 13:21 |
lcuk | touch makes all the sense for me to expand my ideas | 13:21 |
lcuk | right now i want to make the big daddy application liqmaster :) | 13:21 |
lcuk | my tablet can pair and sync with it and the extra space allows management thats just impractical on a 4" screen | 13:22 |
lcuk | the alternative is just sod it and create user accounts on liqbase.net and have everything uploaded there | 13:22 |
lcuk | decisions, decisions | 13:23 |
t_s_o | http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/10/25/compact-esque-lg-reveal-and-shimmer-kit-primping-for-bell-launch/ <- electronics as fashion statements? | 13:23 |
lcuk | yes absolutely | 13:24 |
GAN800 | What do you think an iPhone is? | 13:24 |
lcuk | i like the pletrum-esq stylus i saw on some nokia video | 13:24 |
lcuk | plectrum | 13:24 |
*** johnx has joined #maemo | 13:24 | |
t_s_o | got a point there GAN800 | 13:25 |
t_s_o | i guess the same can be said for the people with macbooks on the table at a starbucks style places... | 13:26 |
*** borism has quit IRC | 13:28 | |
lcuk | in the same way many of us know nokia people, does anyone have any contacts in or near asus? | 13:30 |
AstralStorm | hehe | 13:30 |
AstralStorm | is that a phone, or jewelry? | 13:30 |
t_s_o | a little bit of both, probably... | 13:31 |
lcuk | does it matter? | 13:31 |
AstralStorm | although the small form factor is nice, I'd drop the extras and release another version | 13:31 |
AstralStorm | cheaper this time | 13:31 |
* lcuk didnt know AstralStorm ran a mobile phone company | 13:32 | |
AstralStorm | no no | 13:32 |
AstralStorm | I'd sell both | 13:32 |
AstralStorm | the premium phone will sell too :> | 13:32 |
johnx | "drop extras"? "cheaper"? Are we thinking about the same Apple? | 13:33 |
AstralStorm | uhm, about LG, not Apple | 13:33 |
AstralStorm | apple will never do this, because it's their brand to be posh and expensive | 13:34 |
johnx | ah, that makes more sense then :) | 13:34 |
johnx | LG can do cheap impressively | 13:34 |
t_s_o | LG and samsung comes up with some interesting designs, to bad most of them seem to end up with US operators on exclusive contracts... | 13:35 |
johnx | or Korean operators :) | 13:36 |
AstralStorm | well, because they expect to get more money that way | 13:36 |
johnx | but either way, it's CDMA I suppose | 13:36 |
t_s_o | true that johnx | 13:36 |
t_s_o | at&t is umts | 13:36 |

GAN800 | I'm impressed by how little AT&T has in their lineup right now. | 13:37 |
AstralStorm | mmmh, Kodak sensor in N97... gimme | 13:38 |
AstralStorm | or in N900 ;> | 13:38 |
johnx | I just hope it has decent optics... | 13:38 |
GeneralAntilles | Hopefully not too decent. :P | 13:39 |
GeneralAntilles | I don't want it to be huge. | 13:39 |
t_s_o | i kinda liked the idea i spotted on a recent samsung flip, the camera was inside the hinge so that it would point down while closed. and they made the the outer screen the same as the inner one, so one could use it as a viewfinder ;) | 13:39 |
johnx | more moving parts to break... | 13:39 |
t_s_o | heh, maybe so ;) | 13:39 |
AstralStorm | GeneralAntilles: optics are small | 13:40 |
AstralStorm | and there's enough space | 13:40 |
AstralStorm | see those Carl Zeiss they had already | 13:40 |
AstralStorm | that + excellent sensor = win | 13:40 |
GeneralAntilles | Yes, the N93 was huuuuge | 13:40 |
t_s_o | hmm, does the browser have some kind of pr filetype download memory? it seems to suggest the right place for debs, but a different for new kinds of files... | 13:40 |
AstralStorm | GeneralAntilles: n810 isn't? :> | 13:40 |
lcuk | +software to go with it == double plus mega super win | 13:40 |
GeneralAntilles | AstralStorm, it's not getting any smaller if you add big optics. | 13:41 |
* johnx imagines something DSLR sized and shaped, integrating a 4" touchscreen with a speaker and mic along the bottom edge with dials and buttons everywhere and a camcorder battery hanging off one side :) | 13:41 | |
lcuk | gan, you dont need perfect optics, theres plenty of "good enough" stuff in camera phones now that dont compromise size for quality too much | 13:41 |
AstralStorm | GeneralAntilles: not that it should get a lot smaller | 13:42 |
AstralStorm | maybe a cm here | 13:42 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, johnx brought it up. | 13:42 |
AstralStorm | but there's still enough space to fill in inside | 13:42 |
AstralStorm | can't be made much thinner obviously | 13:43 |
johnx | If the next tablet doesn't support standard DSLR lenses I don't see the point :D | 13:43 |
AstralStorm | wtf? | 13:43 |
GeneralAntilles | johnx, as long as it's an EF mount. . . | 13:43 |
AstralStorm | no, it will outcompete cell phones there | 13:43 |
johnx | I'm keeding :P | 13:43 |
lcuk | inside camera phones, do the camera modules use custom interfaces, or are they basically serial and can be modified to work with usb? | 13:43 |
GAN800 | OMAP has a camera interface | 13:44 |
lcuk | this extensions 32gb case thing craves1 is making would make an ideal place to put a camera module for 810 if one can be found with sufficient drivers | 13:44 |
GAN800 | You'll have to look at the docs for more. | 13:45 |
lcuk | yes gan, but im thinking NOW | 13:45 |
johnx | twp camera interfaces, IIRC | 13:45 |
RST38h | why two? | 13:46 |
lcuk | camera phone operators dont reinvent the wheel when adding cameras do they (they cant?) i wonder just how simple it would be to get one working | 13:46 |
GAN800 | RST38h, one front, one back. | 13:47 |
johnx | RST38h, for pictures and video conferencing I'd think | 13:47 |
RST38h | lcuk: probably as simple as reading i2c device | 13:47 |
RST38h | gan: ah! | 13:47 |
RST38h | <-- stupid, didnt think of that | 13:47 |
GAN800 | I want stereovision | 13:48 |
GAN800 | Hrm | 13:48 |
lcuk | http://liqbase.net/double_tiny.JPG << stereo cameras | 13:48 |
lcuk | just addsync | 13:48 |
GAN800 | I need to build a camera mount now. . . . | 13:48 |
RST38h | not for two tablets I hope... | 13:49 |
GAN800 | Wonder's if there's good software to build 3d images. | 13:49 |
lcuk | yes, criminologists use it | 13:49 |
lcuk | and theres more coming out everyday | 13:49 |
Jaffa | Just go cross-eyed to form the composite. | 13:50 |
lcuk | darpa robot stuff is making extensive use of it all | 13:50 |
GAN800 | Got a friend who also has an XTi | 13:50 |
GAN800 | Holiday project . . . | 13:50 |
* Jaffa wonders if it's worth checking out the 2.2.x branch of Hildon App Mgr. | 13:51 | |
Jaffa | Bah, I'll see if it compiles on diablo | 13:51 |
GAN800 | Jaffa, let us know if it goes all clutter on yah. ;) | 13:51 |
Jaffa | :) | 13:51 |
RST38h | just take an image processing class | 13:52 |
johnx | press show all and 1,000 3D "packages" fall from the top of the screen with realistic physics? | 13:52 |
RST38h | and at the end of the semester you will write your own | 13:52 |
GAN800 | RST38h, too much damn work | 13:52 |
RST38h | not really =) | 13:53 |
lcuk | johnx, think more zooming in and entering a cloud of apps | 13:53 |
*** thopiekar has joined #maemo | 13:53 | |

johnx | then having to poke at them as they fly past? | 13:53 |

RST38h | you are not processing results from 40 cameras to create a volumetric octree are you? | 13:53 |
GAN800 | I just want to attach two cameras to a 2x4 and the the 2x4 to a tripod. ;) | 13:53 |
johnx | installing packages should require strategy, fast reflexes and patience. It was hard to write, it should be hard to install...one way or the other. | 13:54 |
lcuk | make sure you get a Johnny #5 head to wrap them in | 13:54 |
*** Pyrhos has quit IRC | 13:54 | |

*** Pyrhos has joined #maemo | 13:54 | |
GAN800 | Ahahaha, johnx | 13:54 |
RST38h | installing a package should require typing it in using binary code, with you FullScreen button | 13:55 |
lcuk | you have to get through several levels just to get to install canola (boss fight) | 13:55 |
RST38h | from water-damaged scraps of printouts | 13:55 |
johnx | lcuk, after defeating all the "dependencies"? | 13:55 |

RST38h | johnx: after defeating the Python boss | 13:56 |
lcuk | as you develop your skills further more of your GPS map opens up and shows you stuff | 13:56 |
johnx | think you're all finished? dist-upgrade sudden death! | 13:56 |
GAN800 | I can only imagine customer satisfaction will go way up | 13:56 |

lcuk | "you are in a dark basement. you are likely to be eaten by a grue" | 13:57 |
lcuk | RST38h, AGPS is THAT good | 13:58 |
johnx | "In dist-upgrade sudden death, one false move leaves your tablet unbootable! You'll have to "reflash" back to the beginning of the game if you lose." | 13:58 |

lcuk | can YOU master the console in time to beat the upgrade?" | 13:59 |
RST38h | all right, on with the stroll | 13:59 |
lcuk | bonus levels involve opening vi up and having to navigate its maze | 13:59 |
GAN800 | Sounds easy | 14:00 |
* lcuk still hasnt decided on VB server or linux server | 14:00 | |
qwerty12 | lcuk: linux or I shoot you | 14:00 |
zap | VB == visual basic? | 14:00 |
lcuk | yes | 14:01 |
zap | %-O | 14:01 |
johnx | GAN800, vi should be puzzle mode: accomplishing "editing tasks" with a minimum of keystrokes :) | 14:01 |
Jaffa | Right, one things I've found out: Hildon App Mgr uses fremantle's glib which'll be >= 2.16. Diablo has 2.12. g_strcmp0 was introduced in 2.16. | 14:01 |
*** Kegetys has joined #maemo | 14:01 | |
zap | 'server' and 'basic' are incompatible words | 14:01 |
lcuk | zap :) i can do anything in vb that you could do in any other language, i write code using my "C" cap and make it quick | 14:02 |
*** thopiekar has joined #maemo | 14:02 | |
*** thopiekar has left #maemo | 14:02 | |
Jaffa | solmumaha: newer version of glib in fremantle :-) | 14:02 |
lcuk | its kinda object oriented (at least has classes) and lets me draw stuff quickly, linux is like the stone ages :) | 14:02 |
zap | lcuk: I can do in asm anything you can imagine... however I don't use asm most of the time... | 14:03 |
zap | for prototyping python is good | 14:03 |
Jaffa | s/solmumaha/so/ | 14:03 |
infobot | Jaffa meant: so: newer version of glib in fremantle :-) | 14:03 |
lcuk | zap - i can use asm in vb as well (and have done in the past) | 14:03 |
lcuk | zap - agreed re: python - i want a ui designer thats integrated with a great editor | 14:04 |
*** matt_c has joined #maemo | 14:04 | |
* lcuk keeps thinking of the little bits liqbase would require to output full ui code to link with liqbase | 14:05 | |
johnx | lcuk, making your own OS? | 14:05 |
lcuk | draw a ui (or photograph one) highlight the input areas | 14:05 |
lcuk | and let the user go at it | 14:05 |
lcuk | no johnx, but i want to speed up development time | 14:06 |
johnx | fair enough. Just reminds me of emacs somehow | 14:06 |
lcuk | i keep drawing UI screens for nokia | 14:06 |
zap | lcuk: glade + python works fine | 14:06 |
lcuk | im just lazy and crap out when it comes to actually coding them | 14:06 |
lcuk | glade works on the desktop | 14:06 |
lcuk | but not well on the tablet | 14:07 |
lcuk | it should be as smooth and simple as liqbase currently is, but project based | 14:07 |
zap | well, vb doesnt work on tablet as well :) | 14:07 |
lcuk | with editing and stuff | 14:07 |
lcuk | the language is not important, ill put bindings to python or something as required later | 14:07 |
lcuk | or just link to ecmascript or something | 14:07 |
lcuk | i just want something for very quick prototyping so i can see if ideas work | 14:08 |
lcuk | i have about 50 little microapps waiting in line here | 14:08 |
lcuk | which need to have their widgets burnt in code | 14:08 |
* lcuk has a lot of things to try and do :) | 14:08 | |
qwerty12 | Jaffa: Did a dodgy backport of the application manager in trunk and I can only install pidgin-data & pidgin-dbg :P | 14:09 |
lcuk | zap, we need a decent editor before the language is chosen ;) | 14:10 |
lcuk | i want to edit on the go as easily as i edit here | 14:10 |
johnx | yup, it's emacs :) | 14:10 |

*** matt_c has quit IRC | 14:10 | |

*** bergie has joined #maemo | 14:11 | |
johnx | Stskeeps, yeah, a little bit stream of consciousness, but I definitely agree | 14:11 |
johnx | lcuk, no, but you're starting with an editor, on your way to create a user environment you never need to leave :) | 14:11 |

lcuk | :) and | 14:12 |
lcuk | i like things to work nicely and smoothly | 14:12 |
* GAN800 almost wants to qdb that one. | 14:12 | |
* lcuk has expectations about applications | 14:12 | |

GAN800 | lcuk's gonna be shipping tablets in 5 years | 14:13 |
johnx | you need a scripting language though, maybe python? | 14:14 |

*** Pyrhos has quit IRC | 14:15 | |
lcuk | but its right to take with you - but when i sit down at a big desk it should open up into it | 14:15 |

lcuk | no, im not following anyone :) | 14:15 |
*** Pyrhos has joined #maemo | 14:15 | |
* lcuk is making his own path | 14:15 | |
GAN800 | liqLife | 14:16 |
johnx | lcuk, make it sync to a remote server, not the desktop (or at least sync via IP) | 14:16 |
johnx | Stskeeps, it's good that you wrote that. Because of the amount of effort you've put in when you say something like "this was a pain" it has a lot of weight to it. And, I hope you get better from the fever! | 14:17 |
lcuk | johnx, this is the crossroads im at - i could simply put the server code directly into liqbase and allow any instance to become a master - but that requires me to have a linuxdesktop, but that needs to be touchscreen - aka eee) or i can use the server code ive already got in windows and in visual basic | 14:17 |
*** benh has quit IRC | 14:17 | |
*** AstralStorm has joined #maemo | 14:17 | |
johnx | lcuk, is there a reason the server needs to have a UI? | 14:17 |
zap | liqos won't run without a touchscreen? | 14:17 |
lcuk | yes, but to allow my creative juices to flow i need a touchscreen desktop | 14:18 |
lcuk | no johnx, but i like the idea of it | 14:18 |
lcuk | the third alternative is to actually get some metal at liqbase.net and host it there headless (well with a web interface) | 14:18 |
johnx | why not be client/server? | 14:18 |
lcuk | but i dont like the web as much as touching stuff | 14:18 |
lcuk | p2p is actually better | 14:19 |
*** madhav has joined #maemo | 14:19 | |
lcuk | just some peers are better than others :) | 14:19 |

lcuk | i wouldnt expect to keep or display the complete rivers from lots of friends on my tablet | 14:19 |

lcuk | if anyone knows anyone at asus please ask them to send me a demo model ;) | 14:20 |

* lcuk tosses a coin, heads its vb, tails linux | 14:28 | |
lcuk | :) liqbase is havin a server component | 14:29 |
johnx | so they'll just "sync" by throwing some files across? | 14:29 |

johnx | so I can just sync it to my public webspace and pull it down on my desktop? | 14:30 |
lcuk | yes | 14:31 |
lcuk | thats the kind of thinking | 14:31 |
johnx | hot sauce. That's the GUI-less "server" I wanted | 14:31 |
lcuk | yeah | 14:31 |
johnx | and the desktop and tablet are both clients | 14:31 |
lcuk | or one can be the master | 14:32 |
johnx | sounds fair. so we are just disagreeing on semantics, not content :) | 14:32 |
lcuk | itunes-ipod | 14:32 |
lcuk | yeah | 14:32 |
johnx | as long as I can continue to make my desktop less relevant, I'm happy | 14:33 |

hellwolf | I installed mediastreamer, but it doesn't support ogg/flac yet, what should I do | 15:25 |
lcuk | code it up | 15:25 |
lcuk | shouldnt take you more than a couple of hours if you start now | 15:26 |
* lcuk laughs evily | 15:26 | |
hellwolf | well, actually, I made it work on my N800. But I forgot what to install now.. | 15:27 |
lcuk | add your workings to the wiki next time and everyone can learn | 15:27 |
lcuk | and you will know next time you need it | 15:27 |
hellwolf | it's too late | 15:28 |

lcuk | i have 2 nokias here | 15:45 |
lcuk | if i connect them via the wifi can i make saving a file into one folder on one nokia automatically save onto the folder on the other | 15:45 |
lcuk | without me changing my code | 15:45 |
zap | if you use gnome-vfs, yes | 15:46 |
zap | via bluetooth | 15:46 |
lopz | hola | 15:47 |
lcuk | i use scp to my windows desktop to do this kind of thing already but its not properly in the filesystem i have to use a custom browser | 15:47 |
lcuk | hiya lopz | 15:47 |
zap | vfs is a layer above file systems | 15:48 |
zap | you use its functions instead of open(), read() and so on | 15:48 |
zap | then you may use URLs like http:// or file:// or something else | 15:48 |
zap | and on maemo vfs supports bluetooth | 15:48 |
zap | I'm not sure how a bluetooth url looks like | 15:49 |

*** Pyrhos has quit IRC | 16:28 | |
*** Pyrhos has joined #maemo | 16:28 | |
RST38h | AStorm: There is already a Nokia phone with oled (N85?) | 16:28 |
AstralStorm | yes | 16:29 |
AstralStorm | but Kodak has the better OLED | 16:29 |
RST38h | But I would take the Kodak news with a grain of salt: better OLEDs come out every few months or so from different sources | 16:29 |
AstralStorm | yup | 16:29 |
RST38h | The technology isn't quite ready for large screens yet though | 16:29 |
AstralStorm | what stops Nokia from grabbing the current best? | 16:29 |
RST38h | Degrades too quickly | 16:29 |
AstralStorm | 4" is not large screen | 16:29 |
AstralStorm | n900 OLED anyone? | 16:29 |
RST38h | Large enough for OLEDs, sorry | 16:29 |
AstralStorm | not | 16:29 |
AstralStorm | Kodak managed 8" | 16:29 |
RST38h | If I were Nokia I would rather collaborate with Philips | 16:30 |
AstralStorm | at 800x480 coincidentally | 16:30 |
RST38h | Sony managed ~14", it just does not live long | 16:30 |
AstralStorm | with long life :) | 16:30 |
RST38h | How long? =) | 16:30 |
AstralStorm | read the article | 16:30 |
AstralStorm | they say 65k hours | 16:30 |
AstralStorm | better than plasma already | 16:31 |
RST38h | 65000 hours? | 16:31 |
AstralStorm | yup | 16:31 |
RST38h | It is not difficult to be better than plasma. 8 hours of howing a static picture trashes plasma | 16:31 |
AstralStorm | :> | 16:31 |
* RST38h looking up LCD lifetimes | 16:31 | |
AstralStorm | I suspect they're twice | 16:32 |
RST38h | The lifetime of the CCFL (the light behind the panel) is in the range of 25000 to 50000 hours until the CCFL can only attain 1/2 original maximum brightness. | 16:32 |
RST38h | Lifetime of the LCD panel itself is around 300000 hours. | 16:32 |
AstralStorm | mhm | 16:32 |
RST38h | So "yes" and "no" :) | 16:32 |
AstralStorm | so it's better and not :) | 16:32 |
AstralStorm | good enough anyway | 16:32 |
RST38h | LED-lit LCD should do wonders | 16:32 |
AstralStorm | but LEDs have life similar to OLED | 16:32 |
AstralStorm | :P | 16:32 |
RST38h | Actually, Nokia usually uses LED-lit LCDs | 16:32 |
RST38h | No. | 16:32 |
AstralStorm | well, longer than CCFL | 16:33 |
RST38h | You are mistaking LEDs for OLEDs. They are different anymals | 16:33 |
RST38h | animals | 16:33 |
RST38h | LED will live pretty much forever as long as you do not let it heat up too much | 16:33 |
RST38h | OLED has organic components and will degrade, especially if contacted with air | 16:34 |

camel_liu | souns good. | 19:52 |
camel_liu | However, is 'monkey bubble' in the diablo reference manual? | 19:53 |
camel_liu | but it cannot work out | 19:54 |

RST38h | derf: That we do not know yet | 20:49 |
derf | I'm pretty sure the central banks can't print enough money to replace all the credit that just disappeared. | 20:50 |
AFBN810 | has mcontacts ever been releashed? | 20:50 |
*** AstralStorm has joined #maemo | 20:50 | |
RST38h | At the end it is still not real money | 20:50 |
lardman | derf: million pound notes | 20:50 |
RST38h | So printing it will lead to inflation, unless banks take it and stash it somewhere or burn it, turning it back into unreal electronic account balances | 20:51 |
derf | These days they don't actually "print" money, they sell bonds. | 20:51 |
derf | There aren't enough people to actually buy that many bonds. | 20:51 |
derf | Anyway... inflation is caused by a wage price spiral... which is pretty hard to sustain when people are losing jobs. | 20:52 |
RST38h | any excess of money released into general population will cause inflation | 20:53 |
RST38h | even if this money is given as mortgages | 20:53 |
derf | Sure... but wage price spiral is the mechanism. | 20:53 |

RST38h | derf: But things are gonna get funny when oil prices go below $60 | 21:03 |
camel_liu | yes | 21:03 |

lardman | not sure the oil/gas thing is actually supply and demand though, it's artificial and heavily influenced by futures | 21:05 |
RST38h | lardman: Cheap oil -> more driving -> no public transport -> no time to play with gadgets | 21:05 |
lardman | RST38h: other way round here, I save time driving | 21:06 |
derf | lardman: It doesn't matter if your cost of living goes up if you can't demand more money from your employer. | 21:06 |
RST38h | lardman: And if people have to sell their cars, they won't have money for gadget either ;) | 21:06 |
derf | It simply means you have to spend less somewhere else. | 21:06 |
derf | That's not inflationary. | 21:06 |
lardman | derf: of course, but as "inflation" includes cost of living items such as utility prices, it's an inflationary force | 21:06 |
RST38h | derf: I think the article is a bit too alarmist at this stage | 21:06 |
RST38h | derf: But let us see what happens in a week or two | 21:07 |
derf | RST38h: Quite possibly, but I thought the change in sentiment from "Russia is the only one who can bail out Iceland" was dramatic. | 21:07 |
RST38h | derf: Never heard a sentiment like that | 21:07 |
RST38h | Although it probably CAN bail out Iceland, given its reserves | 21:08 |
lardman | interesting to see how the Russian billionaires were so heavily leveraged | 21:08 |
derf | Well, Iceland asked Russia for help. | 21:08 |
lardman | s/were/are | 21:08 |
RST38h | (unless those reserves are already stolen by "civil servants" by investing them into garbage) | 21:08 |
derf | And over here people were like yeah, because Russia didn't just spend $850bln on a bank bailout. | 21:08 |
RST38h | derf: Iceland only asked for a few billion | 21:09 |
lardman | RST38h: I think the point was that the rouble could go one the slide quite easily, which would mean it didn't have the money to do any bailing | 21:09 |
RST38h | derf: And there is another side to this story people may not know | 21:09 |
derf | RST38h: I know. We could have done it too, I'm sure. What's a few more billion here or there? | 21:09 |
derf | But the thing I was pointing out was the sentiment. | 21:09 |
RST38h | derf: Iceland is one of the biggest offshores. Lots of Russian millionares kept money there | 21:10 |
derf | RST38h: Haha, that explains a lot. | 21:10 |

RST38h | aquatix: comlink is the link, not a device | 21:47 |
RST38h | "A draft US Army intelligence report has identified the popular micro-blogging service Twitter as a potential terrorist tool. A chapter titled 'Potential for Terrorist Use of Twitter' notes that Twitter members reported the July Los Angeles earthquake faster than news outlets and activists at the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis used it to provide information on police movements." | 21:49 |
aquatix | *sigh* | 21:51 |
aquatix | RST38h: myeah, that's a good point indeed (about the link) | 21:51 |
