|rt| | hehe odd when I ssh into my tablet even with X forwarding on it's running the applications on the tablet....I haven't checked what the display is set to though | 00:03 |
TPC | I've never done ssh forwarding that way around | 00:05 |
TPC | but I've done it several times running apps from my desktop comp on the N800 | 00:05 |
Veggen | rt: I think it sets the display explicitely in the .profile or such. | 00:05 |
l7 | hmm, funny how having idle applications keeps the processor for cycling down | 00:05 |
|rt| | well i was just poking around after cbx33's questions | 00:06 |
cbx33 | |rt|, I tried changing DISPLAY | 00:07 |

TPC | l7, yes, in a terminal | 00:08 |
l7 | TPC what is the command? | 00:08 |
|rt| | TPC yeah I connected to it with -X here | 00:08 |
cbx33 | and I just set the DISPLAY after logging in with -X and it still doesn't work | 00:08 |
TPC | -X should set the display automagically | 00:09 |
*** setanta has quit IRC | 00:09 | |

TPC | alias powersave='su -c '\''echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor'\''' | 00:09 |

dksaarth | Hi guys - I'm trying to get an emulator / sandbox version of maemo going - i'm following the guide at http://maemo-sdk.garage.maemo.org/install-ubuntu.html, and am at the stage "sudo maemo-tools install etch" Unfortunatly one of the package downloads times out, and when i restart it it wants to download the whole lot again | 00:22 |
GAN800 | Which is the wonderful thing about open source communities | 00:22 |
dksaarth | is there a way to restart it ? | 00:22 |
lcuk | yes gan | 00:22 |
GAN800 | Expecting Nokia's priorities to align with your own is silly, though. | 00:22 |

mib_hjumvf | thanks | 01:01 |
l7 | GeneralAntilles: yeah it's doing it a bit strangely | 01:01 |
l7 | in ondemand mode even after a fresh reboot, it reports the CPU speed at 400 most of the time | 01:01 |
l7 | even when cpuinfo_cur_freq says it's 165 | 01:02 |
zakkm | thats what ondemand does doesnt it? | 01:02 |
l7 | the data agrees when it set the tablet on performance or powersave | 01:02 |
zakkm | it raises and lowers cpu depending on demand :P | 01:02 |
l7 | s/it/i | 01:02 |
* qwerty12_N800 feels like throwing in the dsp factor too for fun to add to the cpu speed confusion ;P | 01:03 | |
l7 | zakkm: this is right after a reboot though. there shouldn't be other programs wasting cpu cycles | 01:03 |
l7 | and therefor my battery :\ | 01:03 |
zakkm | but when you switched | 01:03 |

*** crashanddie has joined #maemo | 01:04 | |

zakkm | bruteforce would take ages wouldnt it | 01:09 |

GeneralAntilles | The .deb installs an installer | 02:18 |
GeneralAntilles | Then you have a number of different options from there | 02:18 |
GeneralAntilles | With a working DE, probably 400MB | 02:18 |
zakkm | not DE | 02:21 |
zakkm | before DE | 02:21 |
zakkm | just base and X | 02:21 |
GeneralAntilles | Maybe 250MB? | 02:21 |
GeneralAntilles | It wont fit on the rootfs. | 02:21 |
zakkm | oh sweet | 02:21 |
zakkm | i can do that tonight | 02:21 |

johnx | because. it's. not. accurate. | 02:43 |
zakkm | its not booting to it anymore | 02:43 |
johnx | yes. the fs is corrupted | 02:43 |

zakkm | any uhh | 02:43 |
zakkm | fsck? | 02:43 |
johnx | exactly | 02:43 |
zakkm | i take that a yes? | 02:44 |
johnx | it's in e2fsprogs | 02:44 |
johnx | yes, you should run fsck on the card from flash | 02:44 |
zakkm | really | 02:44 |
zakkm | thought fsck would call on e2fsprogs | 02:44 |
johnx | yes, really | 02:44 |
zakkm | not be in it? | 02:44 |
johnx | e2fsprogs is a package, fsck is a command | 02:44 |
johnx | BTW, if you get another card, don't buy ADATA | 02:44 |

zakkm | johnx: thanks | 02:46 |
l7 | maybe the batches vary | 02:46 |
johnx | maybe, but I bought mine in a pretty different location | 02:46 |

l7 | i got mine from newegg | 02:47 |

zakkm | johnx: should i try boot from SD now? or boot into flash? | 02:54 |
zakkm | fsck finished , nokia is off | 02:54 |
johnx | you can try to boot from sd, but I think I told you to fsck the wrong parition | 02:54 |

GeneralAntilles | I should mock up a bootmenu control panel. . . . | 02:56 |
disco_stu | with did it die ? | 02:56 |
johnx | GeneralAntilles, like the mac os x one? | 02:56 |
zakkm | generalantilles: add daemon add/remove support. | 02:56 |
zakkm | :P | 02:56 |
johnx | zakkm, that's already available | 02:56 |
GeneralAntilles | zakkm, they already have that. | 02:56 |
GeneralAntilles | johnx, could be an option, how would you detect bootable partitions, though? | 02:57 |
zakkm | really? | 02:57 |
johnx | GeneralAntilles, easy, presence of /sbin/init | 02:57 |
zakkm | i tried removing stuff , everything fucked up and i had to reflash | 02:57 |
zakkm | -.- | 02:57 |
johnx | no init = not bootable | 02:57 |
zakkm | safe stuff lol | 02:57 |
zakkm | i am an old gentoo user | 02:57 |
zakkm | i removed bluetooth and stuff cause i dont have those -.- | 02:57 |
zakkm | like ubuntu , why did they add it as default -.- | 02:58 |
GeneralAntilles | johnx, actually, that's an interesting question (mostly because I don't know enough to know, not necessarily because it's actually interesting ;)), how automatic can we make the boot volume setup process? | 02:58 |
zakkm | okay johnx: whats next? | 02:58 |
johnx | zakkm, type this exactly: ls /dev/mmcblk0p? | 02:58 |
johnx | type the ? too :) | 02:58 |
zakkm | that would just see if theres files? | 02:59 |
zakkm | you telling me my SD is broken? | 02:59 |
zakkm | wtf | 02:59 |
johnx | zakkm, just tell me the output | 02:59 |
zakkm | typing, im slow | 02:59 |
johnx | it tells you about the partitions available on that sd card | 02:59 |
zakkm | 0p1 , 0p2 , 0p3 | 03:00 |
zakkm | oh right, its /dev -.- | 03:00 |

*** Raytray has joined #maemo | 03:06 | |

zakkm | disco_stu: dont install to SD , one day it will break and then your screwed like me :( | 03:06 |
johnx | zakkm, I want to know which partition has your "boot from sd" filesystem | 03:06 |
*** Sargun has quit IRC | 03:06 | |
zakkm | my guess is p1 , its the samllest | 03:06 |
zakkm | and the first | 03:06 |
johnx | disco_stu, you can boot from sd but sometimes that runs into problems with crappy cards | 03:06 |
zakkm | only fat16 | 03:06 |
johnx | it's not p1 :) | 03:07 |
zakkm | p3 = swap , p2 = linux ? | 03:07 |
johnx | which one says it has a "Linux" fs on it? according to sfdisk | 03:07 |
disco_stu | johnx: what can i do, i dont want to boot from sd | 03:07 |
zakkm | p2 | 03:07 |
johnx | disco_stu, delete some stuff to make room. how much space do you have left? | 03:07 |
zakkm | disco_stu: you could clone, and then mount the SD , for installed programs ? | 03:07 |
johnx | GeneralAntilles, thinking about it :) | 03:07 |
zakkm | mount the SD to /var only ? | 03:07 |
zakkm | or something | 03:07 |
disco_stu | 10mb | 03:08 |
zakkm | card in - all programs card out - not all programs | 03:08 |

johnx | disco_stu, did you delete and/or move the nokia manuals, pictures, music and video yet? | 03:08 |
zakkm | johnx: it replied "clean" | 03:09 |
zakkm | it didnt do anything. | 03:09 |
disco_stu | johnx: yes | 03:09 |
zakkm | disco_stu: open it up, replace the flash memory, clone it first though" | 03:10 |
disco_stu | i also killed /var/cache/apt/* | 03:10 |
zakkm | oh johnx | 03:10 |
zakkm | i have mmc2 which is the fat partition i believe | 03:10 |
zakkm | and playback from a vid on it is working fine | 03:11 |
johnx | ok | 03:11 |
johnx | that's not really related, but it's nice to hear I guess | 03:11 |
zakkm | lol | 03:11 |
zakkm | so its not p1 ? :P | 03:11 |
johnx | try fsck -a -f /dev/mmcblk0p2 | 03:11 |

johnx | well, apt broke and then suddenly it doesn't boot. right? | 03:14 |
zakkm | yeah | 03:14 |
johnx | that's awfully suspicious, isn't it? | 03:14 |
zakkm | yeah but all this fsck stuff seems like its okay | 03:14 |
johnx | yeah, that has me confused too | 03:14 |

johnx | well, there's other stuff you can try if you want to learn a lot about linux | 03:16 |

johnx | disco_stu, it isn't | 03:16 |

zakkm | i have a 4gb card | 03:57 |
zakkm | i need 4gb of apps | 03:57 |
zakkm | the flash is too little space | 03:57 |

GeneralAntilles | Call it 400-1GB | 05:01 |

zakkm | l7: i play flv just fine | 05:06 |
zakkm | had problems earlier today but turned out to be my own fault | 05:06 |
l7 | can you seek through files? | 05:07 |
l7 | i can't get it to skip with up/down/left right or page up/page down | 05:07 |
l7 | or with -ss | 05:07 |
l7 | https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=54 files are out of date too :\ | 05:08 |

zakkm | i get a "module insertion has failed" message. | 05:10 |

l7 | so can anyone seek through flvs from youtube in mplayer? | 05:11 |
zakkm | i could | 05:12 |
l7 | just with left and right keys? | 05:12 |
zakkm | up and down too? | 05:12 |
zakkm | i believe | 05:12 |
l7 | for me, it jumps forward and seems to go back | 05:12 |
zakkm | there is no other way is there ? | 05:12 |
zakkm | if you go forward to the end | 05:12 |
zakkm | it will playback from beginning | 05:12 |
zakkm | or if time is "broken" | 05:13 |
l7 | the net result is that you have to hold it down if you want to skip more than a few seconds at a time | 05:13 |
l7 | you can also use page up/page down to skip larger steps | 05:13 |
l7 | if you start mplayer from the command line | 05:13 |
zakkm | i only have a n800 | 05:13 |
zakkm | o | 05:13 |
l7 | you can start it from ssh :) | 05:13 |
zakkm | pointless -.- | 05:14 |
l7 | nah, it's good if i'm sitting at my desk | 05:14 |
zakkm | i dont get you ppl with ssh'ing for video playing | 05:14 |
l7 | i can start mplayer, pick up the tablet and go to the touch | 05:14 |
zakkm | only time ive ever ssh'd is for remote server stuff | 05:14 |
l7 | couch | 05:14 |
zakkm | not for personal stuff | 05:14 |
l7 | hmm seeking works okay with mp4 files | 05:24 |

Stskeeps | johnx: http://trac.tspre.org/projects/m-r btw | 11:08 |
Stskeeps | same login/pass etc as deblet | 11:08 |
johnx | errordeveloper, a lot of us here have done that | 11:08 |
Stskeeps | has svn associated (/svn/m-r) as well | 11:09 |
errordeveloper | so i'll proly format my 8gig internal one in ext2 and a 128meg one into vfat (so it could be put into windows pc or mac) | 11:11 |
Stskeeps | or just partition it, one fat partition and rest ext2 | 11:11 |
*** guardian_ has joined #maemo | 11:12 | |
errordeveloper | yeah ..that's what i thought too ..leave the small one out, | 11:13 |
Stskeeps | nah, you'll like the small 128meg one for when maemo complains :P | 11:15 |
*** fab__ has joined #maemo | 11:16 | |
errordeveloper | but the partitioning might cause a confusion, cause it's not me who is actually using the tablet | 11:17 |
errordeveloper | so i'd just tell them to use small mc in case of swapping data is needed and use the big one for storage | 11:17 |
errordeveloper | and on ext2 the data will be safer | 11:17 |

Stskeeps | anyone ever thrashed their internal flash though? | 11:51 |
Stskeeps | beyond the partitioning stuff | 11:51 |
Stskeeps | as in, the internal SD | 11:51 |
johnx | I'm pretty sure that swapping / ext3 wasn't the factor in the deaths of any of my cards' deaths | 11:51 |
X-Fade | Wrong voltage etc is more likely? | 11:52 |
johnx | maybe death-by-static-electricity | 11:52 |
RST38h | His halo destroys flash. | 11:52 |
X-Fade | Or wear/tear outside the device. | 11:52 |
johnx | though one of my cards had bad sectors to begin with and developed more rather quickly | 11:53 |
johnx | I think that would be classified as a defective card, but I can't help but thinking that such heavy utilization might have contributed to the speed of its death | 11:53 |
X-Fade | I generally don't care too much about it. It is meant to be used, not meant to be saved. | 11:55 |

dksaarth_2 | not sure how to go about doing that ? from inside sb2 ? | 15:42 |

johnx | aaah...sb2 | 16:41 |
jumpula | sudo sb2? | 16:42 |
suihkulokki | now _that_ is recipe for disaster :> | 16:42 |
johnx | this is probably related to the different "view" that apt-get has of your system. look in area where the rootstrap was unpacked and see if there really is an ld.so.conf | 16:42 |
jumpula | indeed :) | 16:42 |
dksaarth_2 | so sudo sb2 = very bad idea ? | 16:43 |
jumpula | yes | 16:43 |
*** Dar has quit IRC | 16:43 | |
jumpula | you should not use sudo with sb2. ever. | 16:43 |

jumpula | you@host% sudo apt-get install fakeroot | 16:45 |
jumpula | sb2 -e fakeroot dpkg -i foo.deb | 16:45 |

*** joueur__ has joined #maemo | 16:45 | |
*** zaltair has joined #maemo | 16:45 | |
jumpula | assuming the -e was emulation mode with sb2 | 16:46 |
dksaarth_2 | yeah it was | 16:46 |
Stskeeps | or -rfakeroot in dpkg-buildpackage | 16:46 |
jumpula | sb2 (in contrary to sb1) uses the tools in your host system (plus some creative path mapping) | 16:46 |
jumpula | but the principle is the same. you need to have the tool *somewhere*, either on the target or on your host. | 16:47 |
dksaarth_2 | i have it on my host, i.e. i can run fakeroot sb2, but not sb2 fakeroot | 16:47 |
jumpula | oh, yes. the emulation mode is restricted to the target. | 16:48 |
jumpula | hmm | 16:48 |
jumpula | try -i (install mode) | 16:48 |
dksaarth_2 | sb2 -m install fakeroot dpkg -i *.deb /opt/maemo/dists/etch/bin/bash: fakeroot: command not found | 16:49 |
dksaarth_2 | (-i doesn't exist for sb2) | 16:50 |
jumpula | suihkulokki: is install mode too restricted on target? | 16:50 |
jumpula | suihkulokki: or does it have the path mappings only for apt? | 16:50 |
dksaarth_2 | could i do a sb2 apt-get fakeroot ? | 16:50 |
jumpula | you can do that | 16:50 |
jumpula | if you have a repository for the target that contains fakeroot | 16:51 |
jumpula | then you can even use the -e | 16:51 |
dksaarth_2 | hmm dont think i do have a repository for it | 16:51 |
jumpula | i'm not entirely sure which kind of bird the install mode really is | 16:51 |
jumpula | you can also build that package for your target | 16:51 |
jumpula | but i'm assuming sdk+ is using host's fakeroot, so there should be a way | 16:52 |
dksaarth_2 | hmmm | 16:53 |
suihkulokki | I don't know about the install mode | 16:53 |
jumpula | ok | 16:54 |
jumpula | i was kinda assuming that, but since i have no clue about that mode myself... | 16:54 |

thopiekar | yes | 17:32 |

RST38h | johnx: The problem with Maemo is a bit different. It is not bluez to blame | 17:37 |
timeless | but i'm pretty sure you'd understand the frustration of the guy who worked on bluez that the feature isn't used | 17:37 |
qwerty12 | But I won't deny that I knew that A2DP on N8x0 was bullshit before I bought it so A2DP wasn't a buying factor for me. | 17:37 |
RST38h | johnx: Maemo does compression/uncompression via DSP and its CPU is too slow to do it by itself and STILL have enough firepower left for your apps | 17:38 |
johnx | timeless, definitely, I was just thinking that. Nothing like working on projects that never see their intended use | 17:38 |
johnx | RST38h, that's an interesting idea | 17:38 |
* timeless considers writing a patch for something | 17:38 | |
RST38h | johnx: So, to play stuff via A2DP, you have to first uncompress mp3 (on DSP), then compress result into A2DP format (on the same DSP) | 17:39 |
RST38h | johnx: Ladrman will have more details if you are interested | 17:39 |
GeneralAntilles | We should get the packagerate guy to start hacking on h-a-m | 17:40 |
johnx | RST38h, I know a bit about A2DP. it already works passably on the CPU. mp3 decoding+sbc encoding takes about 20-30% at 400MHz | 17:40 |

johnx | yes. that's why I haven't put much more effort into cleaning up the "enable a2dp" package I made | 17:44 |
RST38h | johnx: And *that* is the problem unfortunately. But lardman has A2DP running on DSP, with some limitations | 17:44 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, don't think so. | 17:45 |
RST38h | johnx: Maybe you can get in touch with him and see if there are any new and exciting things to do =) | 17:45 |

aquatix | ah | 17:51 |
johnx | right, hence my waning interest :) | 17:51 |

Stskeeps | johnx: http://www.daimi.au.dk/~cvm/install-MR-sdk (shell script, requires git, sdk, build-essential and other evil things, but does the trick..) in the end, PATH=$HOME/mr-sdk/sb2/bin:$PATH bash, and sb2 away happily | 18:50 |
Stskeeps | some things need to be sb2 -e (emulated) such as apt-get and such, and others are just sb2 dpkg-bulldpackage -rfakeroot -d | 18:50 |
johnx | that is stunningly awesome | 18:50 |

johnx | that would be pretty neat | 18:54 |
Stskeeps | and maybe including emulation aliases that way too | 18:55 |

lardman | I'm trying to get an mp3 dsp decoder working so it can all be handled on the dsp, but have been busy doing other things recently | 19:05 |

*** qwerty12 has quit IRC | 19:07 | |

zaltair | yep i running mplayer on N800 | 19:08 |
l7 | hey, did you know mplayer doesn't support processor throttling? | 19:08 |
l7 | CPU is always at 400 when it's active, even when paused | 19:09 |
l7 | even on powersave mode | 19:09 |
lardman | l7: interesting | 19:09 |
zaltair | johnx: i do not know... how can i find that... | 19:09 |
johnx | zaltair, if you run mplaer from the command line | 19:09 |
zaltair | l7: ouch.. that is bad... | 19:09 |
johnx | s/mplaer/mplayer -v your-file.avi/ | 19:09 |
Stskeeps | l7: you should probably watch "stats" instead of current cpu freq | 19:09 |
Stskeeps | gives a better picture | 19:09 |
l7 | it also seem that even on powersave mode, doing various things will push your CPU over 165 | 19:10 |

Stskeeps | sec | 19:10 |
l7 | CPU speed seems to be at 328 while playing music with canola or osso-media | 19:11 |
derf | l7: ARM and DSP clocks are linked, so that's not surprising. | 19:11 |
l7 | regardless of powersave | 19:11 |
l7 | hmm | 19:11 |
zaltair | is any quick solution on the web? i haven't time now... i will come later... | 19:11 |
disco_stu | what about playing music with xmms ? | 19:11 |
l7 | maybe that's why tapping causes the CPU to spike to 400 | 19:11 |
l7 | i haven't tested xmms yet | 19:11 |
derf | I think the DSP is hard-coded to run at full speed when it has active tasks, which means that the ARM will be at 333 MHz. | 19:11 |
lardman | l7: starting a dsp task removes any cpufreq modifiers and sticks the dsp to top speed | 19:12 |
johnx | zaltair, don't use aac audio. make sure you use mp3 audio | 19:12 |
Stskeeps | l7: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state | 19:12 |

*** k-s is now known as k-s[AWAY] | 19:12 | |

l7 | i wonder if it's a recognized bug yet | 19:24 |

timeless | i'll polish that later | 20:44 |
timeless | please don't circulate it too widely | 20:44 |
timeless | it needs art, more words, etc. | 20:44 |
l7 | if you know what you're doing, you know how much power is required and how much of a charge your battery has, you should be able to flash at less than full charge with no issues | 20:44 |
disco_stu | i ended flashinh | 20:44 |

GeneralAntilles | Does Nokia happen to have any file-footage on hand of a char-broiled N810? ;) | 20:44 |
timeless | 148..152 (-150) are in need of reviews | 20:44 |
l7 | i'd rather have the knowledge, that's the point of playing with linux | 20:44 |
timeless | GAN: heh, i think we have some devices that don't boot | 20:45 |
disco_stu | GeneralAntilles: i flashed to diable | 20:45 |
timeless | i'm not quite sure i want to bother video'ing them | 20:45 |
timeless | anyway, night | 20:45 |
timeless | darn, i missed my movie | 20:45 |
timeless | is max payne any good? | 20:45 |
GeneralAntilles | Haven't gotten around to seeing it yet | 20:46 |
* timeless decides to aim for it | 20:46 | |
GeneralAntilles | My suspicion is that I'm going to hate it | 20:46 |
GeneralAntilles | since I absolutely love the game. | 20:46 |
*** errordeveloper has joined #maemo | 20:46 | |
*** profoX` has joined #maemo | 20:46 | |
l7 | anyway, if you brick the device, you should be able to just flash it again shouldn't you? | 20:47 |
GeneralAntilles | Wrong definition of brick | 20:47 |
Grackle | Hey, it's not a Uwe Boll production, it might have a chance. | 20:47 |
GeneralAntilles | If you screw up NOLO, then you wont be able to flash it again. | 20:47 |
GeneralAntilles | That said, flashing occurs at about 5MB/sec | 20:47 |
l7 | NOLO? | 20:47 |
GeneralAntilles | and NOLO is about 9KB in total | 20:47 |
GeneralAntilles | NOkia LOader | 20:48 |
GeneralAntilles | The bootloader | 20:48 |
GeneralAntilles | The software that actually handles the flashing procedure device-side. | 20:48 |
l7 | ah, so that specific part of the nokia software, the loader is critical | 20:48 |
GeneralAntilles | So it's about a 2ms window you have to irreversibly screw up your device. | 20:49 |
timeless | any window is still a window | 20:49 |
timeless | someone will manage to find it | 20:49 |
timeless | the more chances you take the better the odds that the someone is you | 20:49 |
l7 | what can you do to fix the tablet if you do somehow screw up NOLO? | 20:49 |
timeless | buy a new one | 20:49 |
qwerty12_N800 | It's probably easier messing up the tablet when it is actually booted. | 20:50 |
l7 | strange that there's no recovery mode for the tablet | 20:50 |
GeneralAntilles | l7, build a serial cable to cold flash. | 20:50 |
timeless | l7: imagine performing brain surgery | 20:50 |
qwerty12_N800 | than compared to flashing that is | 20:50 |
timeless | some things are safer than others | 20:50 |
GeneralAntilles | l7, there is, it's just not recoverable over USB. | 20:50 |
timeless | but if you manage to tick the right part (brain stem), you have a braindead being | 20:50 |
l7 | anyway, so after that 2ms window, if you tablet loses power during the flash, you can just reflash the tablet? | 20:51 |
l7 | s/you/your/ | 20:51 |
infobot | l7 meant: anyway, so after that 2ms window, if your tablet loses power during the flash, you can just reflash the tablet? | 20:51 |
timeless | l7: if you can figure out where that window is | 20:51 |
GeneralAntilles | With some parts and some small familiarity with electronics, cold flashing isn't particularly difficult. | 20:51 |
timeless | plus you're assuming that usb is doing 5MB/s | 20:51 |
GeneralAntilles | NOLO is flashed first | 20:51 |
timeless | if you're stupid and use a usb1 jack (which i believe works) | 20:51 |
timeless | then you're probably not getting 5MB/s | 20:52 |
l7 | timeless: you're really being excessive about this | 20:52 |
l7 | assuming the user is a moron | 20:52 |
GeneralAntilles | Better to be excessive and not have people come crying about bricked devices. ;) | 20:52 |
timeless | l7: i've met enough users | 20:52 |
GeneralAntilles | Users _are_ morons. | 20:52 |
l7 | timeless: do you work for nokia or something? | 20:53 |
timeless | i happen to | 20:53 |
timeless | but my opinion predates my existing employment contract | 20:53 |
timeless | and my opinion isn't official policy | 20:53 |
disco_stu | i see no difference between chinook and diablo | 20:53 |
lcuk | but working for nokia has nothing to do with common sense and following instructions when required | 20:53 |
timeless | but if you do something that voids the warrantee | 20:53 |
disco_stu | and im missing the whole apps i had installed | 20:53 |
disco_stu | dammit !!! | 20:53 |
l7 | timeless: what do you do at nokia? | 20:54 |
timeless | then you can't really expect the vendor to do much when you break it | 20:54 |
timeless | l7: that's not particularly relevant here | 20:54 |
RST38h | disco <-- another example of moron user =) | 20:54 |

* lcuk hopes for a less stressfull night | 20:54 | |
* timeless has already missed a few movies tonight | 20:54 | |
l7 | anyway, my point is that it's helpful to know the details of such instructions about flashing | 20:55 |
RST38h | lcuk: less stressful than what? | 20:55 |
timeless | l7: i doubt it | 20:55 |
disco_stu | timeless what time is there ? | 20:55 |
l7 | rather than being issued a vague warning that you must always do what the instructions say without doing why | 20:55 |
timeless | do instructions on how to use a gun prevent people from killing themselves? | 20:55 |
l7 | your gun analogy is erroneous | 20:55 |

qwerty12_N800 | it was in chinook afaik. input method was updated but biggest difference from chinook was that it can now tell if you tapped an input field with a finger or stylus. | 21:47 |

*** zaltair has joined #maemo | 22:12 | |

RST38h | lcuk: does yours have a mute button? | 22:16 |
* Stskeeps ponders idly why there is political stuff on planet maemo | 22:16 | |
disco_stu | lcuk: yes but is hard to find | 22:16 |
Stskeeps | (not that i dont agree but still..) | 22:16 |
lcuk | yes, i just have to insert the smart card into her purse and she shuts up ;) | 22:16 |
disco_stu | lcuk: thats one of the ways | 22:17 |
GeneralAntilles | Stskeeps, because we haven't thumbed it into the ground enough yet. | 22:17 |

RST38h | General: Only when I manage to get the photos! | 22:21 |
GeneralAntilles | Ha | 22:21 |
GeneralAntilles | It has the feel of an Onion article | 22:21 |
*** housetier has joined #maemo | 22:22 | |
RST38h | Onion is the last reliable news source out there | 22:23 |
RST38h | except that sometimes it reports on the future events. | 22:23 |
* qwerty12_N800 read it as least but then realised it really was last | 22:23 | |
GeneralAntilles | Well, that too. ;) | 22:24 |
GeneralAntilles | Started working on this if somebody wants to jump in: https://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo.org_Sprints | 22:26 |
*** hellwolf has joined #maemo | 22:28 | |
RST38h | SCRUM refers to software development process. Sprint meetings are mainly policy-related afaik | 22:29 |
RST38h | Not sure if it applies | 22:29 |
GeneralAntilles | Wiki doesn't really think so: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCRUM | 22:29 |
*** cowbellemoo has joined #maemo | 22:31 | |
RST38h | Scrum is an iterative incremental process of software development | 22:32 |
RST38h | first sentence on that page | 22:32 |
GeneralAntilles | Is exactly what we're doing, yes. | 22:32 |
RST38h | mm...ok | 22:32 |
