GAN800lcuk, it doesn't have anything to do with sources.00:28
lcukof course it does00:28
lcukif its open we can fix things ourselves00:28
GAN800They don't care whether the fix is available for them to use or not, only whether Nokia ships an official Fremantle image for OMAP200:29
lcukthere is a good chance that the bugs noticed are gonna be in incompatible packages00:29
GAN800No, really, that discussion isn't related to sources.00:29
lcukif they want to be opensource they will not juist kill an actively used code branch without doing something about it00:29
GAN800Most of these bugs have been resolved on open source stuff00:29
lcukthen whats the problem?00:30
lcukits available00:30
lcukisnt it?00:30
GAN800While source may be relevant to the larger picture, it isn't to that discussion.00:30
GAN800It's that people are stupid00:30
GAN800They don't seem to realize that Fremantle's openness really enables a community backport00:31
GAN800They only seem to be concerned with FUD00:31
lcukwhich os have you got in your 77000:32
Stskeepslcuk, the main issue is the need for community editions which actually remix the newer packages into the mix00:32
lcukyes sts00:33
lcukand one of those ingredients is simple fixes to the existing software00:33
lcuknot waiting for a whole os to be backported00:33
lcuklots of people are happy with their current system00:34
Stskeepsmost bugs can be fixed by simply compiling the new packages00:34
lcukhopefully00:34
GAN800OS2008HE00:34
Stskeepsand the mechanism for delivering those sanely doesn't exist yet00:34
lcukGAN800, i hear lots of folks in here who try it as primary and have dropped back00:35
lcukStskeeps, technically svn would work00:35
Stskeeps(should community take over SSU maintaince?00:35
lcukshouldnt owner simply be able to choose ssu server?00:36
lcuknokia|maemo00:36
lcukStskeeps, i really dont see why not, its not much different to extras00:36
lcukinfact itsthe same isnt it00:36
lcuki get update reports from extras00:36
Stskeepsor atleast ability to push updates to be included in ssus00:37
qwerty12_N800lcuk, ssu servers are just plain repo with h-a-m having instructions to treat it as an software update repo00:37
lcukyeah qwerty00:37
qwerty12_N800actually, people even apt-get upgrade instead of using h-a-m to upgrade to an new ssu00:38
StskeepsGAN800: worth considering, - maemo community can contribute updated packages for ssu?00:38
Stskeepsmechanism for this00:38
*** gregorovius has joined #maemo00:39
GAN800Stskeeps, osv-c00:39
GAN800We should just roll our own if we're going thaat route.00:39
lcukits not unreasonable - ive heard about oss keeping old versions alive in all the camps over the years, why we dont consider it here is strange.  at least iin the short term it would relieve anxiety from people00:40
*** chenca has quit IRC00:40
GAN800lcuk, to each his own00:41
GAN800I like OS2008HE00:41
StskeepsGAN800: well also a way for nokia to gain from community00:41
lcukgan, people buy a tool, they invest time in making sure it works for them and sometimes simply dont want to change00:41
Stskeepsand keeping older devices going00:41
GAN800lcuk, that's fine.00:41
lcukif fremantle on device is stable in 12 months they might change00:42
Stskeepsk, sleep time00:42
GAN800Stskeeps, there's no need to involve Nokia beyond perhaps enlisting them for additional support00:42
Stskeepsk00:42
GAN800But if we're pushing a community edition, best to go all the way.00:42
lcukGAN800, im simply thinking it would ease tension :)00:42
GAN800No need to piggyback on Nokia's setup.00:42
GAN800lcuk, you're tossing irrelevant things into the mix. :P00:43
lcukyeah, but theres middle ground in all camps - im really looking forward to playing with the new devices00:43

*** woglinde has quit IRC01:47
l7hrm, i wish i knew01:50
l7maybe you can edit something /proc01:50
Mouseyaumix? alsamixer?01:50
l7but don't take my word for it01:50
GuySofthey, when debian lenny comes out. would mamo move the lenny codebase?01:52
GAN800GuySoft, Fremantle is upgrading many libraries01:52
GAN800It's not dependent on Debian cycles, though.01:53
GuySoftFremantle?01:53
Mouseyhuh?01:53
GuySoftGAN800, it just seemed logical to me since now its part etch part lenny.. and when lenny comes out they will support the armel architecture..01:53
GAN800GuySoft, check the wikipedia article on Maemo, but it's the next release.01:54
Mouseywhy aren't you running stable and testing and unstable already tho?01:54
GAN800~maemo01:54
infobotsomebody said maemo was a development platform to create applications for Nokia 770 Internet Tablet and other maemo compliant handheld devices in the future. http://www.maemo.org/01:54
Mouseywhy wait for releases, i didn't think that's how debian worked, and it certainly seems that way since they NEVER release01:54
GuySofti am just annoyed i carn't cross-compile anything because the packages carnt be moved from debian to maemo.. and it seems logical since its really simular01:55

zakkmhey l702:55
l7heya zakkm02:56
EgSnever heared of moblin... but those specs aren't shabby02:56
zakkmThe platform leverages the GNOME Mobile and Embedded stack and uses Hildon, a derivative of the GTK+ toolkit that was originally designed by Nokia for Internet tablet devices. It also includes a modified version of the Firefox 3 web browser. Developers who want to get a head start hacking on the platform can download the source code from Intel's Git repository.02:56
zakkmhas a modified version of firefox 3.. and uses hildon?02:57
zakkmwhy doesnt maemo have that then? :P02:57
l7yeah, hildon02:57
EgSmaybe it's fennec?02:57
zakkmah maybe02:57
zakkmjust curious ;p02:57
l7isn't the problem the maemo's processor?02:57
*** housetier is now known as s0nted02:57
EgSor firefox mobile or whatever they call it now... but fennec wasn't fun on the n810... way too slow02:58
zakkmit was slow on my pc too ;p02:58
EgSlol .902:58
EgS:)02:58
zakkmPentinum E2180 dual;p02:58
l7i wonder if nokia would considering using atom on it's n90002:58
EgSo_O how did they achieve such bad performance?!02:58
l7ubuntu is offically supporting atom on it's mobile remix as well02:59
GAN800zakkm, we have exactly that. . .02:59
zakkmubuntu supports my atom cpu :)02:59
zakkmx86 version though of course02:59
GAN800The next release of Fennec should address a lot of the performance issues.03:00
l7the street price of 368 USD makes it rather competitive with the n81003:00
GAN800l7, I hope the hell not03:00
l7why not?03:00
GAN800Unless you WANT an hour and a half of battery and 6 hours idle. :roll:03:00
l7heh03:01
GAN800Because the Atom is still shit as far as mobile CPUs go03:01
GAN800It's not even an SoC yet03:01
GAN800The OMAP3 is so much more badass03:01
*** harry has joined #maemo03:01
GAN800The Atom will MAYBE be competative in 2 years03:01
GAN800But it's not even in the same league right now.03:02
l7the article doesn't mention battery life03:02
l7SoC?03:02
*** harry is now known as Guest5924103:02
EgSsystem on chip03:02
GAN800System on a Chip03:02
GAN800Atom is just a CPU03:02
GAN800OMAP3 is CPU, GPU, DSP, memory controller, and bus controllers on one die.03:03
GAN800Which gives you rather significant cost and power savings.03:03
l7then it'll need a bigger heavier battery to compensate i suppose03:03
zakkmwhat is the DSP exactly?03:03
zakkmwhats its job?03:03
l7i wonder what the real world battery life figures will work out to03:04
GAN800Anyway, there's really no advantage--and several extreme disadvabtages--in using an x86 CPU when Windows compatability isn't in the equation.03:04
soapthe kind of math associated with multimedia.03:04
GAN800zakkm, Digital Signal Processor03:04
l7when is fennec's next release coming out by the way?03:04
zakkmi know what it stands for03:04
zakkmbut what does it do03:04
GAN800l7, 1-4 hours active, maybe 8 idle03:05
GAN800Compared to 4-8 hours active and 14-30 days idle.03:05
GAN800zakkm, processes digital signals. ;)03:05
EgSdsps are strong in floating ops and are strong on MAC units and provide very lowlevel control03:05
GAN800Audio and video decoding03:05
GAN800l7, shouldn't be too far off03:06
EgSGAN800: you're involved in fennec development?03:06
l7won't the intel architecture make it easier to port linux apps though?03:06
EgScompared to? other architectures? well gcc supports lots of architectures, so not really03:07
GAN800EgS, no, I just like to stay informed and have talked to the devs a bit. :)03:08
GAN800l7, no03:08
EgSGAN800: aah ok, but good to know. I really liked the concept of the interface03:08
GAN800l7, barely anything is really architecture dependent these days03:08
GAN800and the massive disadvantages of x86 far outweigh anyway.03:09
l7okay, i was just curious why there aren't that many standard linux apps in the extras repo03:09
EgSmany of those disadvantages can be coped with by the microarchitecture though03:09
GAN800l7, that's a library/platform issue03:09
GAN800maemo-gtk is a bit funkt03:10
GAN800s/kt/ky/03:10
infobotGAN800 meant: maemo-gtk is a bit funky03:10
* zakkm is installing easy debian :P03:10
GAN800EgS, massively higher power consumption compared to ARM being first and foremost.03:10
EgSGAN800: power consumption is not part of the architecture...03:10
*** fiekia has quit IRC03:10
l7zakkm: where's the easy debian download?03:11
GAN800an x86 CPU aint gonna be comparable to an ARM CPU anytime soon03:11
zakkmgot it off forum03:11
GAN800particularly when you factor in the chipsets.03:11
zakkmit was a "one-click" thingy03:11
l7heh, i have to admit one-click has it's appeals03:11
zakkmANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!03:12
EgSGAN800: that is true though :) but as the architecture just defines the assembly commands it doesn't say anything about the power consumption03:12
EgSGAN800: but yes ARM is a very cool architecture03:12
GAN800EgS, the reality is that you can't consider the architecture independly of other factors. :p03:12
EgSGAN800: due to the market requirements... yes :)03:13
EgSGAN800: theoretically you could... but then you would end up with a product no one would buy :)03:13
GAN800Thus, moot discussion. ;)03:13
EgS:)03:13
*** k-s[AWAY] is now known as k-s03:14
GAN800I want that ARM GPU03:14
GAN800Ditching Imagination Tech would be great03:15
l7so when is the n900 coming out?03:15
GAN800It's not been announced, but Summer 2009 is a safe bet.03:15
l7i'm guess it will have the n810's form factor more or less03:15
l7s/guess/guessing/03:16
infobotl7 meant: i'm guessing it will have the n810's form factor more or less03:16
EgShehe cool feature of the bot :)03:16
l7it is an exciting time to be a linux user these days03:16
l7yeah, i love that feature03:16
l7the wiki feature is cool too though i wish i knew what the index of possible commands are03:17
zakkmanyone think fremantle will be alot quicker than diablo?03:17
GAN800l7, you just define them as you go along03:17
GAN800~l7 is a letter and a number. :p03:17
infobotGAN800: okay03:17
l7lol03:18
zakkml7 is a lucky number 7 :P03:18
*** mpk has quit IRC03:18
GAN800zakkm, on the same hardware? No.03:18
zakkmyeah same hardware03:18
GAN800But more optimized? Significantly.03:18
l7~GAN800 is three letters and three numbers :)03:18
infobotokay, l703:18
GAN800on faster hardware it'll scream.03:18
zakkmlol wouldnt that mean quicker?03:18
zakkmin a sense?03:18
zakkmdepending optimization03:19
GAN800zakkm, it's also heavier03:19
GAN800Clutter and such03:19
GAN800Diablo MicroB to Fremantle MicroB, Fremantle will be faster by a large margin.03:19
zakkmshould leave microb :P03:20
zakkmgoogle chrome! :P03:20
zakkmgoogle chrome goes ARM! :P03:20
GAN800Bleh03:20
GAN800Chrome isn't designed for mobile platforms.03:20
zakkmhas a sick tab feature ;p03:20
Mouseyneither is android03:20
GAN800It's designed to eat up big desktop machine resources to go faster.03:21
l7Mousey: neither is android?03:21
Mouseyi'm being silly, ignore me03:21
l7heh03:21
l7the fact that you need to jailbreak android devices bugs me03:21
glass_but it's not surprising03:22
l7maybe it's the prevent people from unlocking their phones03:23
l7what do you guys think of the neo freerunner by the way?03:24
* zakkm favourite phone is the tmobile sidekicks03:26
GAN800l7, hardware sucks, software aint great.03:27
GAN800hardware is understandable, but the software is just a mess.03:27
l7yeah, that is my impression too03:27
l7android will be available for it soon though03:28
l7Koolu Beta port of Android  will be available to download for  existing Freerunner owners  and installed on phones for sale in December 2008.03:28
l7http://www.koolu.com/03:28
l7dunno if it's worth $400 USD though03:28
l7zakkm: what do you like about the sidekicks?03:29
*** philipl has joined #maemo03:29
zakkmthe design03:30
l7can you get a decent terminal session with a few apps like ssh, wget and mplayer on it?03:30
zakkmi loved them way before the whole iphone, ipod touch, touchscreen stuff03:30
zakkmi also live in toronto, Canada so the only way to get one is like ebay ;p03:31
l7the iphone or the sidekick?03:31
zakkmsidekick03:31
l7weird, there's no tmobile in Canada?03:32
zakkmnope03:33
l7i have to say the keyboard on the sidekick does look nice03:33
zakkmwould like nokia + sidekick for actual calls03:34
l7there's so many interesting devices in the pocket sized form factor03:35
zakkmits a cellphone though03:35
zakkmwhich i need for work03:35
zakkmand im 17 in a city... so teenage use too03:35
l7heh03:35
l7it looks like a nice texting platform03:35
l7really, i just want to carry one device around anyway, so it has to be a phone03:36
l7though i would probably get a n900 too if i found the extra cash at some point03:36
l7and if it was truely The Awesome that it seems it will be03:37
l7s/was/will be/03:37
infobotl7 meant: and if it will be truely The Awesome that it seems it will be03:37
zakkmhow do i type in easy deebian?03:37
l7no bluetooth support?03:37
l7i think you have to find the virtual keyboard app03:38
l7there's a youtube video walkthrough of sorts if you look for deblet03:38
zakkmthats deblet though03:38
zakkmdeblet kills battery alot i heard, so i figured i shouldnt use that03:39
zakkmthought easy debian might be better03:39
l7hrm03:39
l7isn't easy debian in the extras repo?03:39
zakkmyeah03:40
zakkmthats why i got it03:40
zakkmhaha this so cool03:40
zakkmlxde on nokia03:41
l7did you install easy-deb-chroot?03:41
zakkmyes03:41
l7ah03:41
l7no need to look in the forums for that03:41
zakkmi got it from forums though03:41
zakkmcause i wanted to read the installing notes03:42
l7is it the same version?03:42
zakkmyes03:43
zakkmso slow03:43
zakkmmaemo is soo much quicker03:43
zakkmheard it was slower, realized it must be.. but didnt realize this significantly03:44
l7oh well03:45
l7is deblet faster?03:45
zakkmnever tried03:46
zakkmbut i heard battery life sucks alot03:46
l7i wouldn't mind trading a bit of battery just to play around with a faster system for a bit03:46
zakkmtrue but that would require a new partition and dualbooting and all03:47
l7i would just put it on a spare SD care and wipe it after i'm done messing around03:50
l7s/care/card/03:50
infobotl7 meant: i would just put it on a spare SD card and wipe it after i'm done messing around03:50
zakkmdont have a spare ;p03:51

l7in the US anyway, dunno how much prices are like in CA03:52
l7i was hoping my shiny new kingston card would be able to write at greater than 2MB/s though03:53
z4chhanyone know how to get the clear function for the nxxo shell?03:53
l7maybe it's just an internal IO limitation03:53
z4chhit's kind of important :D03:53
l7z4chh: there's ctrl-l03:53

zakkmwhich are in my nokia n800's03:54
zakkmbut they're full03:54
zakkmand i boot off one of them03:54
z4chhit comes naturally to me...i see a screen full of information..my instict is to type clear as fast i can and snap that enter button :D03:54
l7you can do reset and clear on ROXterm03:55
z4chhas in...get out of my sight!03:55
l7yeah me too03:55
z4chhyay l7 clear buddies!03:55
l7heh03:55
l7it's just about minimizing the amound of clutter03:55
z4chhtotally, you got to keep that terminal organized03:56
z4chhi finally added colors to my prompt on my n800..can't see how i lived without them o_o03:57
l7oh yeah, there's a particular 32GB adata class 6 card out there that is really bad and can only write at 2MB/s even from a PC03:57
l7but i also have a different adata card that is nice and fast03:58
z4chhyou have a 32gb sdhc?03:58
l7z4chh: how did you add color?03:58
z4chh.bashrc03:58
l7no, i returned it03:58
l7it was total crap in terms of speed03:58
zakkm32gb is too much03:58
l7not really03:58
z4chhid kill to have 64gb on my n800 ;p03:58
zakkmi would to, but price wise03:59
l7it's great for media since i use mytube a lot03:59
zakkmnot worth it to me03:59
zakkmcanola caan download off youtube cant it?03:59
l7hrm yeah, the price per gig is little more03:59
z4chhzakkm, yep not right now03:59
z4chhzakkm, with a plugin03:59
l7hmm03:59
l7oh wait, that was a 16 gb i got03:59
l7it was all around $2 USD per gig actually03:59
l7as long as your card doesn't crap out04:00
z4chhhow much memory does the 16gb really give?04:00
l7uhm 16gb, minus whatever formatting overhead you have04:00

dmsupermanI use symlinks whenever possible04:51
dmsupermanThat way I can move files around without having to affect anything at all04:51
l7how does tabbing replace symlinks?04:51
johnxI tend to move big files between my 3 storage drives on my desktop and keep symlinks with their old locations04:51
dmsupermanl7: It's better not to ask questions04:52
l7heh04:52
dmsupermanjohnx: I don't move them, but I do that04:52

l7johnx: which 3 big drives do you have setup?04:52
l7on a real desktop machine rather than maemo?04:53
* dmsuperman has almost 1.5TB of storage04:53
dmsupermanI have a data addiction04:53
l7yeah same here04:53
dmsupermanHard drive space is cheap04:53
johnxwell, for example, my music used to live on an internal 200GB drive, then I got a 500GB USB drive and moved the music, symlinked it back to the internal and my music playing apps didn't need to re-import it04:53
l7iiiiii need a better backup scheme for it04:53
dmsupermanHaving many backups and never having to delete anything rocks04:53
dmsupermanl7: rsync + hardlinks = best backup solution ever04:54
dmsupermanl7: I wrote a script to do it, want it?04:54
l7dmsuperman: sure, that would be cool04:54
l7i've been playing around with simplebackup, but it's not capable of hardlinking04:55
l7which means restoring incremental backups requires you restore every incremental since your last full backup if you want a complete restore04:55
dmsupermanl7: http://dmsuperman.pastebin.com/f5524b3504:55
dmsupermanl7: Mine is meant to backup my "/" but you can adapt it04:56
l7yeah, i guess i would add /etc to it04:56
dmsupermanNo mine does /etc04:56
l7ah cool04:56
dmsupermanIt does a full backup of an ubuntu install, and very likely all other distros04:57
dmsupermanIt doesn't copy /proc and similar virtual mountpoints and the like04:57
dmsupermanBut it creates the mountpoints for them at the bottom04:57
l7i guess i should print it out and study it a bit later04:58
l7since i'm just learning bash scripting04:58
dmsupermanI could explain it if you like04:59
dmsupermanI'm pretty proud of it myself, was my first real bash script04:59
l7hmm, what is the short explanation of how it works?05:00
dmsupermanFirst it defines some variables to be used for later05:01
dmsupermanLine 10 searches the backup directory for the newest one (simply by ordering the directory names, I named them by date in such a way that they return in chronological order)05:01
l7ah, i like how it creaaaaates a date based directory for the destination05:02
dmsupermanLine 16 defines the folders to exclude from the backup, mostly just stuff that you wouldn't want to back up /proc and /sys and hte like05:02
zakkmdo you all leave many apps running on nokia, even if your not particularly using it for like 30min or so?05:03
zakkmor do you open apps and close them as you use them05:03
dmsupermanThen the if statement checks if there is already a backup, if not it creates a backup05:03
dmsupermanIf one already exists, it hardlinks the entire thing into the new backup dir05:03
dmsupermanAnd in both cases it uses rsync to copy all modified files from the current / to the backup one05:03
dmsupermanThen the bottom just creates the mountpoints so when you restore the backup it'll boot05:04
l7oh, neat it's bootable05:06
*** Meiz_n810 has quit IRC05:06

l7line 10 has me confused slightly05:07
dmsupermanThat's the one that finds the newest backup05:08
dmsupermanIt lists all of the directories in the backup directory, in reverse order, and returns the last one05:09
dmsupermanSince they're written like YYYY.MM.DD.HH.MM.SS they'll return newest last05:09
l7oh, so this is what allows the incremental backup to work properly05:10
dmsupermanRight05:10
dmsupermanTo avoid having to store them in a database or anything05:10
dmsupermanI just use the directory name as the backup date so I can easily determine the newest05:10
l7doesn't this nest every new backup inside the last one?05:11
dmsupermanNo05:11

l7oh right $DESTDIR is always constant05:12
dmsupermanRight05:12
l7my battery level must be low05:13
l7does rsync copy any symlinks over exactly?05:14
dmsupermanI forget what each argument means, but with the arugments I pass it copies them as symlinks05:15
l7ah cool05:15
*** corq-FL has joined #maemo05:15
l7last time i messed around with rsync i ran into some problems with symlinks and used tar instead05:15
dmsupermanYeah it's all about telling it the right arguments05:16
dmsuperman-v is verbose backup, --delete deletes files from the backup that no longer exist in the source dir05:16
l7one thing i like about using tar is that it creates one big file which copies between filesystems much quicker05:17
dmsupermanThat is good05:17
soapwhere do I set persistent aliases in the N810's shell?  .bash_aliases?05:17
dmsupermanWith rsync you can use sshfs though05:17
l7maybe it would be possible to put each of these backups inside a gzipped tar file05:18
dmsupermanYou could do that, add it to the script05:18
dmsupermanSo after it rsyncs, you could maybe tar it up05:18
l7yeah, i guess it could be done by storing it /backups/incremental/, then tar it05:19
dmsupermanThe whole reason I like mine though is by using hardlinks it makes it incremental and barely any more storage used05:19
dmsupermanI have 4 backups of my 7GB /, totalling 10GB05:19
l7do you put it into a cron job to run regularly?05:20
dmsupermanYeah, I run it once a week05:20

johnxof course, every time I correct someone I must also make a mistake. that's how the universe balances :)05:26
l7heh05:26
l7dmsuperman: maybe there's a date command for it, but i need to learn more unix to know it05:27
johnxwhy not just keep x backups05:27
dmsupermanI know how to do date, but I'm not sure how to do like -2 months05:27
dmsupermanjohnx: Just in case I make an extra backup for whatever reason05:27
l7you could try touching a file to creat a file, then using touch to subtract two months from that file05:27
l7then get the date from that file05:28
l7rather convoluted though05:28
johnxyou could number them in seconds since the epoch. that would make the math better05:28
dmsupermanI'm doing that05:28
dmsupermanBut I'm not sure how to subtract 2 months from today in seconds05:28
dmsuperman-60 days doesn't always work05:28
dmsupermanBecause months aren't all 30 days05:29
johnxwell, you only want to delete things that are *older* than two months, right? so just make it the worst case: 62 days05:29
l7yeah, our calender system is terribly imprecise there05:29
johnxmuch easier to do it by weeks05:30

dmsupermanI want to determine 2 months ago, then I can do rm 2008.09.*05:30
dmsupermanI dunno, I'm just trying to create a script to delete everything from >= 2 months ago05:31
dmsupermanI have one but for instance I ran it today and it deleted 2008.10.*05:31
dmsupermanSo it's wrong.05:32

johnxthinking, hang on05:33
johnxthis is an interesting problem :)05:33
dmsuperman:)05:33
johnxso once it's december, get rid of anything from september?05:33
l7that's a laudable attitude05:34
l7i would just find it aggravating usually05:34
dmsupermanjohnx: Yeah05:34
l7on december 1st i assume05:34
dmsupermanI'll run it on the 1st of each month05:34
dmsupermanAnd delete everything that's not from the previous month or the one before it05:34
dmsupermanI don't want to trust the modification time, I just have a bad feeling about that05:34
dmsupermanIf I ever moved or copied it and forgot to preserve times or something05:35
*** _pcfe_ has quit IRC05:35
johnxso really on the last day of november it should delete september?05:35
dmsupermanSure, or the first of december05:36
johnxerrr05:36
johnxthat makes things difficult05:36
dmsupermanWhy?05:36
dmsupermanI'd actually prefer anything September and older, that way it catches old stuff in case the cycle script doesn't run on time05:36
l7there's a linux program called "time" something that uses this system too iirc05:36
dmsupermanBut if not Just deleting september is fine05:37
l7hardlinking that is05:37

johnxis that more or less what you want?06:01

johnxI tend to stick with things available on all Unix systems (or at least GNU systems) when I script, but if you know you'll have php you might as well use it06:06
dmsupermanRight06:06
dmsupermanI would generally agree06:06

timely(a file name isn't something on the file system, it's its own strange concept)11:48
timelyi'm trying to do my hacks w/o reading the source. i.e. i could have written the hack you have w/o seeing the source11:48
timelythe .sketch.png info comes from running sketch from a terminal11:49

timely(or using strace)11:49
*** t_s_o has joined #maemo11:51

*** madhav has joined #maemo19:27
johnxI think that means it can't possibly work with maemo-launcher, but I'm not sure why it gets built that way if you haven't changed the package much19:28

Stskeepsthat's awkward19:28
Stskeepsmaybe they changed it for fremantle?19:29
*** konttori_ has joined #maemo19:29
qwerty12If built with maemo-launcher, you should have a <name of program>.launch. You get shared object because stuff built using maemo launcher has "-shared -fPIC"  CFLAGS.19:29
johnxthe -fPIC is unrelated to maemo-launcher I think19:29
Stskeepsjohnx: maybe it has both .launch and non-launch?19:29
StskeepsfPIC is needed for shared objects :P19:29
*** guardian has quit IRC19:30
johnxok, I'll make sure it's using that19:30
qwerty12johnx, if your program is using pkg-config, use pkg-config --cflags maemo-launcher-app19:30
johnxbut the .launch version appears because of something like this "if maemo-launcher ; the mv hildon-desktop hildon-desktop.launch"19:31
*** lardman has joined #maemo19:31
johnxI am already :/19:31
johnxthat's the weird part19:31
johnxthis is nokia's package19:31
johnxI'll do a vanilla checkout and build just for fun19:31
qwerty12If it really is using maemo launcher, "maemo-invoker <name of program>.launch" should work19:31
johnxright, but for that to work it has to be a shared object and somehow my debian/rules looks like it should do the right thing, but isn't obviously19:32
johnxsince it makes an executable instead of so19:32

qwerty12hehe19:48
qwerty12Hrm, I've got builds of the version that is shipped with diablo, let me check if that is the same version and if so, is it an shared object19:49
qwerty12Nope, 2.0.18 comes with diablo. Let me build 2.0.19 in sbox for shits and giggles19:49
johnxI wonder if some magic intersection between CFLAGS containing -fPIC if $DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=thumb lets this work for Nokia for ARM, but not for me on x8619:50
johnxbut pkg-config --libs maemo-launcher-app *is* returning -shared -fPIC -export-dynamic19:51

cars__This sounds silly, but my n810 sometimes hangs for a long period of time (the UI is unresponsive except for the power button menu) - is there any way to access a virtual console to kill the offending processes, or add such functionality to the power button menu? :)20:17

z4chhcars__, i get that to, i sometimes reboot if it is bad enough20:19
qwerty12cars__, you can enable the power button menu to be able to start up an xterm: http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15223 but as to getting an actual virtual console,the process is long and you need an xterm to switch anyway (chvt)20:19
cars__qwerty12, does the power button menu run at a higher priority than normal apps?  If so, would the launched xterm also run at the higher priority?20:22
qwerty12cars__, I think it does (at least mce is running at one afaik) but I don't know if the xterm will be launched at an higher priority. If you are around a computer, ssh may be worth a bet.20:23
