Stskeepsone of the problems at least.00:29
Stskeepswrite 1 byte to sapwood, and nothing else, and it goes absolutely balistic00:29

Stskeepsdid we figure out if fremantle SDK makes v7 binaries or v6, yet?00:47
andre__provide a good testcase for Sapwood's testing framework and attach it to a bug report...00:52
Stskeepsandre__: hey, i just did that :P00:53
Stskeepswell, the first part00:53
Stskeepsadding some bonusses00:53
Stskeepsto make it actually suit into the undocumented testing framework :P00:53
Stskeeps(i do read my mail.) :)00:54
Stskeepsand the fact that if we look at it with completely maemo eyes, the testing framework doesn't work in fremantle sdk for it.00:56

Stskeepsi've added a -large- comment now, explaining the exact, technical, logical problem.01:28
andre__ah. mapping real names to irc names. ok, gotcha :)01:28
*** Pio has joined #maemo01:29
Stskeepsand, admittedly, i did a mistake by setting severity :) you might want to put "Bug Writing Guidelines" in a very visible place on bugs.maemo.org01:30
Stskeepssince such a guide exists01:30
andre__yeah... but where?01:31
Stskeeps..01:31
Stskeepsok, my bad :)01:31
Stskeepsit's right on the enter bug page step 201:31
andre__oh. okay. i should file more bugs it seems, didn't know that either :-P01:32
Stskeepsafter going through the steps you are just so focused on writing the actual bug ;)01:32
Stskeepsin any case.. the reason i'm even bothering to push this bug - the very real chance an application will die mid way sending something to sapwood. this will cause sapwood go to into a spin and cause system wide instability :)01:34
andre__i can add some blinking flash videos to get more distracted (or trigger epilepsis) if you want me to ;-)01:34
Stskeeps<blink>read the guidelines</blink>01:34

Stskeepsit was a mistake to remove the blink tag :P01:35

Stskeepshehe, well you are doing quite a valuable effort, you deserve a holiday :)01:55
l7i've noticed my N800 can get rather warm when i watch a lot of video on it...  anyone have ideas on whether this may shorten the tablet's life?01:55
l7compared to say mainly using the tablet for text or audio playback01:56
l7http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/378/1004378/why-nvidia-chips-defective was a bit of an eye opener01:56
Stskeepsl7: hard wifi activity?01:57
Vulcanisis it plugged in?01:57
Stskeepsif i didn't have power save, my tablet got warmer01:57
l7though i suppose it's possible that the tablets are well constructed and they may last though years of thermal cycling01:57
l7Vulcanis: sometimes... does running from ac power all the time incur a lot more thermal stress?01:58
l7Stskeeps: yeah sometimes i stream large videos from revision3 directly off the internet just because i can :)01:59
l7though perhaps it would be better to download the video and play it from my SD card01:59
l7mostly i'm curious about what types of activity could shorten a tablets life02:00
lcukl7 i keep my 810 encased in a solid wooden frame plugged into power most night times doing allsorts02:01
l7and what practices might help extend it's life02:01
lcukive even left it charging in its cradle with a book over the top (never again) the device got hot to touch02:01
l7lcuk: how long has it been doing that?02:01
lcukthat was once only02:01
lcukthe wooden thing is umm about 11 1/2 months02:02
Vulcanis[18:58:35] <l7> Vulcanis: sometimes... does running from ac power all the time incur a lot more thermal stress? -- charging it tends to make it heat up02:02
Vulcanisthe battery takes lots of thermal stress, but I wouldn't put it in a toaster every day02:02
lcukl7, your mobile phone battery goes through same stress, on a long call don't you feel it warm up02:03
l7hmm, i don't presently have a mobile02:09
l7i wonder if charging patterns could affect battery life02:09
l7i've heard that charging for brief periods and then unplugging can reduce a battery's life02:10
l7though that's more about battery chemistry than thermal stress02:10
*** GAN800 has joined #maemo02:12
ShadowJK_After the battery is charged though, running it on AC would make it heat up less02:12
Stskeepsevening GAN80002:13
l7yeah, i have noticed that the tablet is fairly cool when running off AC02:13
ShadowJK_topping up the battery often makes it last longer02:13
*** aantn has quit IRC02:14
*** k-s is now known as k-s[AWAY]02:14
ShadowJK_compared to waiting for it to be almost-empty before charging02:14
l7hrm, yeah i've heard that emptying the battery tends to degrade it's chemistry02:14
ShadowJK_You can't actually empty it all the way :-)02:15
ShadowJK_There's a chip that makes sure to never drain it too much02:15
l7yeah, i think it would kill the battery02:15
ShadowJK_Not only kill it, if you tried charging it again you'd risk explosion :-D02:15
l7don't all lithium batteries have a chip to kill the battery if the charge gets too low for that reason?02:16
l7however, i know some laptops (ie apple ones) prevent the battery from charging if the charge is above 95% when you plug it in02:16
l7the idea being that you want to avoid racking up lots of brief charging sessions02:16
ShadowJK_In smaller devices like the tablet and cellphones, the chip is in the device, not in the battery02:16
ShadowJK_Well... You can charge the battery to 60-80% full in 30-60 minutes... Then the last 20% takes an hour or two.. So what Apple and friends like to do is display "battery full" once it's at the end of the fast stage of the charge02:18
ShadowJK_Once the battery reaches the voltage at which it's considered "full", the safe options are to either feed just enough power to maintain the voltage at "full", or cut the charge. The second alternative is better for battery life. When the voltage falls below a set threshold again, you top it up again.02:21
*** bergie has quit IRC02:22
l7hmm02:22
l7i wonder which option nokia uses02:22
l7i suppose that could mean apple's "quick charge technology" is just a battery indicator that lies to you02:23
ShadowJK_yes, it is :-)02:23
l7heh02:23
ShadowJK_Well it's not all lies02:24
ShadowJK_They do have bigger charging current to get the first stage of the charge completed quicker02:24
ShadowJK_And there are lithium-ion chemistries that accept charge faster than others, but in the cellphone and laptop area the focus is more on energy density and making the battery last longer than a year02:25
derfI'm not sure I've had a Li-Ion battery last longer than a year.02:26
l7so if a device does not use the second alternative to cut power to the battery after it's full, does it make sense to unplug your device to prolong it's life?02:26
derfNot without at least a 50% reduction in battery life.02:26
l7huh?02:27
ShadowJK_l7, well the entire picture is so much more complicated... for the tablet i'd say it's harmless to leave it plugged in all the time02:27
*** chelli has quit IRC02:28
l7ah, why is that?02:31
ShadowJK_Well for one you can't tell what the things do :-)02:32
ShadowJK_laptops and phones generally have sophisticated battery management chips that do the right thing02:33
ShadowJK_The $5 standalone tabletop charger, however, is best kept under supervision and battery best removed from it as soon as it signals done02:34
l7hmm, do you include the N800 in the laptops and phones category?02:34
ShadowJK_oh yes02:35
GAN800Hi, Stskeeps. :D02:35
l7i think nokia's chargers all have a circuit that reduces their power consumption when they're plugged into the wall but not charging02:36
l7though that's a slightly different issue02:36
StskeepsGAN800: too much xmas brew? ;)02:36
l7yum, xmas brew02:37
ShadowJK_l7, Yeah, I saw Nokia has a goal of making their chargers use 0 power when plugged in but not charging, by some deadline that I forget02:37
GAN800Stskeeps, nah, I barely drink at all. I'm just really thrilled to be home after a long day of retail. :P02:37
l70 power would be pretty cool02:37
ShadowJK_Mind, everyone calls them "chargers", but they're really just powersupplies, the charger is in the phone/tablet :-)02:37
l7heh02:37
l7nokia already seems to be ahead of everyone in that area02:38
StskeepsGAN800: hehe. understandable. had the whole "small christmas eve" rush today. so good to just have silence in the house now :P (at my dads)02:38
l7i wonder the rest of the hardware vendors aren't doing the same thing02:38
ShadowJK_yeah probably02:38
l7maybe it has something to do with being based in the EU02:39
*** florian has quit IRC02:39
ShadowJK_and greenpeace is on their case like a swarm of mosquitos swarming around your head02:39

gnutonHi there02:41
l7they have been on apple's ass though02:41
*** RP has joined #maemo02:41
ShadowJK_oh there was this one laptop manufacturer that made their laptops reject batteries after a year :-)02:43
ShadowJK_So you had to get new one02:44
ShadowJK_But if you set date back, suddenly the battery worked again :D02:44
* ShadowJK_ forgets who did that02:44
l7er, wtf??  that's insane02:44
l7when did that happen?02:44
l7that's just pure evil02:44
ShadowJK_distilled evil :-)02:44

RaytrayAnyone know where I screwed up/03:10
StskeepsGAN8001: not much really. got a -sane- mer sdk going. i've spent more time dealing with sapwood than i would like to ( https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3939 ) and it's christmas03:11
GAN8001Raytray, no, but find Khertan and bug him about it. :P03:11

*** gentooer has joined #maemo03:12
GAN8001But retail still sucks and it's colder than I'd like it to be.03:12
jakemaheuhello solca!03:13
RaytrayWell your away message is out of town :p03:13
l7bigpig: no, but though they are one of the few outlets that is doing much reporting on the subject03:13
Stskeepssolca: sdk works and running an imager atm for mer to isolate some tablet-isms03:13
l7if there's a better primary source for information on what chemicals are used in computer hardware, i'm open to suggestions03:13
Stskeepssolca: like, a package shouldn't rely on stuff like /proc/component_version or on a certain kernel being installed on the imager :P03:14
GAN8001Raytray, hehe, well, most of the people that are likely to try to contact me there that would be true for.03:14
Raytray:p03:14
GAN8001l7, made up data is worse than no data at all.03:14
solcaStskeeps: component_version is standarized?03:15
jakemaheu17: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed_circuit_board03:15
solcajakemaheu: hi03:15
Stskeepssolca: no, not at all. its a tablet kernel interface i believe03:15
RaytrayGAN8001, I'm really considering your suggestion of getting more chargers.03:15
l7GAN8001: what data has Greenpeace made up lately?03:15
solcaStskeeps: all kernels I have compiled have correct component_version03:15
GAN8001Raytray, one for every flat surface in the house. :P03:15
GAN8001$20 will get you about 503:16
Stskeepssolca: yeah, but we're not going to build the images on a tablet :)03:16
Stskeepsthe idea is to build them in emulator for instance03:16
GAN8001l7, most of the Apple publicity stunt for one.03:16
Raytrayhah03:16
l7jakemaheu: how does that wikipedia page provide information on which manufacturers use more chemicals?03:16
Stskeepssolca: so the packages postinst and such should not look for target information there03:16
solcaStskeeps: haha compiling all Mer in a tablet, maybe in a year you have your first image :P03:16
GAN8001l7, you know that baby seal clubbing stuff? They clubbed them themselves to film it.03:16
l7GAN8001: that is old news though.  not that i think much of that stunt03:16
Stskeepssolca: which is why we made a sdk ;)03:17
*** herz1 has joined #maemo03:17
GAN8001l7, take everything you hear or read from Greenpeace with a massive grain of salt.03:17
l7GAN8001: i don't really care if they club seals or not actually03:17
Stskeepssolca: but when i say imaging it's stuff like debootstrap, making jffs images, etc03:17
solcaStskeeps: yea I got it03:17
GAN8001l7, the point is, it doesn't do much for their credibility.03:17
solcadamn!03:18
* solca has to leave again :(03:18
l7GAN8001: for the purpose of this topic, i only care about the content of the eco ratings about hardware companies03:18
Stskeepscya, solca03:18
* solca wants to hack!!...03:18
l7again, it's not like anyone else has done much reporting on the topic03:18
GAN8001l7, or all the anti-nuclear propaganda they love to spread around.03:18
l7most news articles about chemicals used in computers link back to the greenpeace articles03:19
GAN8001l7, but the veracity of those reports is suspect because of the organization they're coming from.03:19
l7again, i don't really care about their anti-nuke stuff03:19
solcaStskeeps: cya03:19
GAN8001l7, it's all lies from the same organization.03:19
l7i just want some data on who's making cleaner computer03:19
GAN8001It doesn't matter if YOU don't care about it, it all affects the organization's credibility.03:19
GAN8001But clearly I'm not convincing you, so there's no point in continuing the discussion.03:20
l7okay, that's all well and good, but is anyone else covering the subject?03:20
l7if someone else has produced a report comparable to http://www.greenpeace.org/international/campaigns/toxics/electronics/how-the-companies-line-up i am all ears03:20
StskeepsGAN8001: i still think you'd win a competition for fastest n800 typing without a bluetooth keyboard? :P03:20
GAN8001Stskeeps, on the G4 at the moment.03:21
Stskeepsah03:21
Stskeepsso GANG4 then ;>03:21
Stskeepser03:21
GAN8001Yup03:21
StskeepsGAG4.. which sounds weird.03:21
l7GAN8001: you don't seem to be addressing that the underlying issue, you're just throwing character attacks at greenpeace03:21
GAN8001What "character"?03:22
l7like i said, i don't really care who does environmental reporting about computers, but if there's some else who does it that would be great03:23
GAN8001So you just take information from any source at face value, then?03:24

lcukyou know what else surprises me about liqbase vs windows.  liqbase is so much more touchable!  windows might be nice to have touchscreen, but because you still have to aim at the tiny scrollbars and stuff it makes it really hard work17:08
johnxrandom question: do you have 3D effects enabled for the desktop?17:08
lcukno i disabled all fancy crap17:08
johnxok, good :)17:08
lcukno wobbly windows or minimize things etc17:08
qwerty12_N800heh, I loaded a shitload of extensions so i could  get hw ogl :/17:08
lcukbut if i use wobbly windows doesnt that use the OGL for compositing and not specifically for apps17:09
johnxit uses it for compositing, but every window is drawn to an off-screen texture17:09
lcukie gl apps become offsecreen rendered and need to be essentially rendered twice17:09
johnxright17:10
johnxso you have "visual effects" set to "none" right?17:10
*** gomiam has quit IRC17:10
johnxcause normal is just as bad as extra really17:10
lcukconfirming..17:10
lcukvisual effects: NONE    (theres also normal and extra, extra makes things wobbly)17:11
*** gomiam has joined #maemo17:11
johnxyeah, I have more than extra enabled :)17:11
lcukextra extra17:11
Stskeepslcuk: my family are geeks so there's a mini lan party right now in the house :P17:11
johnxre touchability of standard desktop apps: yeah, that's the really big barrier to using unmodified debian on the tablets, it's just a pain to interact with17:11
lcukit was the same with windows though17:11
lcukover 90% of any given screen was non interactive to swipes17:12
lcukyou have to aim and its not on17:12
johnxyeah, a mouse/touchpad just calls for a different UI design than a touchscreen17:12

RST38hIn Russia it is December 31st22:45
RST38hAnd if you *really* want to celebrate christian orthodox christmas, then it is January 7th22:45
woglindeRST38h wasnt that new year?22:46
woglindeor is it celebrate both at the same time22:46

RST38hwoglinde: Christmas isn't really celebrated22:47
RST38hwoglinde: NY is22:47
woglindejepp22:47
woglindethats how I remind it22:47
RST38hAnd the Jan 7th date is due to some petty medieval quarrel between catholics and the greek otrhodoxy about the calendar22:48
RST38hCommunists fixed it for civic affairs around 1917 but the Church still operates on its own calendar22:49
woglinde*g* I am not going to search in wiki for it22:49
woglindehm in 2009 we will see some major player going down22:50
woglindetoyota is starting22:50
t_s_otime, calendars and holidays, silly things we cant agree on...22:51
RST38hNo way Toyota is going down22:51
t_s_osometimes i wonder if we humans disagree just for the hell of it...22:52
RST38ht_s_o: You have to dig deeper.22:52
woglinderst I said toyota is starting22:52
t_s_oRST38h: say what?22:52
RST38ht_s_o: And you will usually find money and control there22:52
RST38ht_s_o: Actually, the catholics/orthodoxes "disagreement" is a perfect example of that22:53
t_s_owhat money is there to be made on disagreeing if monday or sunday should start the week, or that the clock have 2x12 or 24 hours?22:53
RST38ht_s_o: None of these have ever been causes for disagreement22:53
t_s_ooh? check the calendar threads on itt...22:54
* RST38h does not read calendar threads on itt and thinks that these matters are better to be left to config panels and localization22:54

qwerty12_N800solca, hey, tried out nitdroid today and i'm finding it great :). But I wanted to say that I applied your kexec-tools patch and got a binary that is 109k in size rather than being ~540k and runs in both maemo & initfs (haven't actually kexecd a kernel with it *yet* -- will do so tomorrow) : http://qwerty12.maemobox.org/kexec23:51
solcaStskeeps, qwerty12_N800: merry xmas!!23:53
qwerty12_N800solca, merry christmas to you too :)23:54
solcaqwerty12_N800: my binary is statically linked, I presume yours is dynamically linked to initfs' libc23:54
qwerty12_N800solca, nay, statically linked23:54
qwerty12_N800hence it running both in maemo & initfs :)23:55
Stskeepssolca: was thinking of a funny idea earlier.. abuse kexec and "suspend to disk", quick switching between mer and android ;)23:56
solcaqwerty12_N800: I just compile it statically linked, maybe it used gnu libc and that explains the big size, I really dunno but if smaller the better, in fact that was one of my worries23:57
solcaStskeeps: how that would work?23:57
qwerty12_N800I've compiled it for a little experiment I want to do while I eagerly await your nitselector :). I recompiled your kernel with the root set to initfs and it gets me there which is what I need :)23:57
qwerty12_N800solca, yeah, that's why  I  thought it would be useful23:57
Stskeepssolca: well. suspend/resume of OS'es, and then be able to within nitdroid, and within mer, to switch "quickly" between the two OS'es :P23:58
Stskeepsbut that's just an insane idea of mine23:58
solcasuspend to disk?23:58
Stskeepsyeah, hibernation23:59
Stskeepslet's say suspend to mmc23:59
woglinde*g*23:59
Stskeepsmakes more sense :P23:59
