Macerat least the picoPSU will not make the disgusting noise the fan in the stock psu made00:25
Macerit's really no wonder why it died now.. it sounded like it was grinding to death00:25
Macermini-box.com has some interesting shit00:26

StsN800timeless, w01:12
timelessopen bookmarks01:12
timelessapp menu>bookmark01:12
timelessi'm considering dropping the elipsis for 'edit' in that menu01:12
timelessdo you understand the rules for elipsis?01:13
qwerty12_N800It opens a dialog though01:13
timelessthat's not the rule01:13
timelessthe rule is based on whether the dialog is the intended consequence or something which interrupts the intended action01:14
Maceranybody here mess with fusion?01:14
timelessa 'settings' dialog should have a menu item w/o an elipsis01:14
StsN800timeless, bookmarks so need an ordering feature01:14
Maceri guess there is no infrastructure client for osx for esxi01:14
jiivOh, unrelated question: anyone know of a way to lock the position of home applets in maemo? i haven't found a solution yet and i'm sick of moving them around on accident.01:14
Macerwhat a let down01:14
jiiv /agree sts01:14
timelessbecause the goal of selecting settings is to view/edit the settings01:14
StsN800jiiv, fixedinfremantle01:15
timelesssts: bookmarks need to be shot, we're going ot shoot them for fremantle01:15
Maceris fremantle out?01:15
jiivah :/ ok.01:15
timelessmacer: we haven't event shipped an alpha sdk for fremantle01:15
Macerheh.. i see01:15
timelesslast i checked there was a pre2 of an alpha sdk01:15
Macerit's not going to work on an n800 anyways is it?01:15
qwerty12_N800jiiv, there's a patched h-d on bugzilla but it doesn't remember a lock setting on reboot01:16

tonyyarussoSay, I just ordered up a Nokia N810.  However, from what I can see in pictures, the keyboard lacks a tab key.  Since I do a fair number of things with tab-complete, I was wondering is there a way to rig up a hotkey combo for a pseudo-tab?01:31
johnxlike in a terminal?01:32
qwerty12_N800I've seen posts on itt where people describe how to map tab to a keyboard button somewhere01:32
johnxor ctrl-i should work01:33
johnxin the terminal at least01:33
tonyyarussojohnx: Cool, that would be okay.01:34
tonyyarussoqwerty12_N800: Don't suppose you bothered to bookmark any eh?01:34
qwerty12_N800Nope, got an N800 here :)01:34
johnxyou kids and your N810s with physical keyboards. Why back in our day... :D01:34
timelessqwerty/johnx: wanna try a new version of my strings?01:35
johnxtimeless, sure01:35
timelesssts: i specifically mean a 'zoom in' or a 'zoom out' menu item01:35
lcuktonyyarusso, just a mo01:35
timelessit's vaguely possible such a string is used in a context menu of a frame or something similarly obscure01:35
lcukhttp://www.thisismobility.com/blog/2007/12/31/adding-pipe-and-tab-to-the-n810-keyboard/01:35
Stskeepstimeless: don't think so01:36
jiivtonyarusso: something like xmodmap -e 'comma = comma tab tab tab tab tab' will turn function-comma into a tab.01:36
lcuki remember the keywords :)01:36
lcukread the comments as well01:36
tonyyarussojohnx: Hehe.  What can I say, it was on sale for like $250 off.01:36
lcukjohnx, :) i like res free rendering01:36
qwerty12_N800tonyyarusso, google "nokia_vndr/rx-44"01:36

* Stskeeps heads to bed01:41
timelesscan someone please explain why (browser)app Menu>Navigation> has Bookmarks(!) but History list(...)01:41
* qwerty12_N800 really needs to figure out how he can get osso_cp_plugin_execute to play nice with advanced backlight. so far I've added a "display settings" option that segfaults hildon desktop >.<01:41
timelesshrm, seems maemo can't get elipsis right for Settings01:43
* timeless will fix that in a future rev01:43
timelessperhaps 0.1.201:43
johnxheh...so the 'we can't guarantee' your software will be changed in 0.1.2 or you're sticking with it?01:50
timelessoh, i forgot01:50
timelessThis software might work, there are no guarantees about it.01:51
johnxthat's not true either01:51
timelessThis software might not work, there are no guarantees about it.01:51
timelessthere are two strings01:51
johnxcloser, but conceivably the person who put it in extras is providing a guarantee01:51
timelessoh01:51
timelessso, the difference between work and not work01:52
timelessis whether it mgiht be from nokia01:52
johnxha!01:52
johnxreally?01:52
timelessif it is from nokia, it's the latter01:52
timelessyes01:52
johnxcute01:52
*** lbt has quit IRC01:53
timelessThis software might (not) work, there are no guarantees.01:53
johnxgah! but that's still not necessarily true. the intent is to excuse Nokia, not anyone else :P01:54
timelessyeah well01:54
timelessi'm screwing the intent here01:54
timeless:)01:54
johnxeh, then you'll get nothing but bug reports from me :P01:54
*** jiiv has left #maemo01:54
timelessalright, offer something else01:55
timelessthe dialogs happen for 'might be from nokia (or not)' and 'not from a verified source'01:55
timelesswhatever those concepts are01:55
timelessask the h-a-m- code01:55
johnxThis software ( may | may not) work, but Nokia provides no guarantee. Do you still want to continue installing it?01:55
timelessai_nc_non_verified_package, ai_nc_unsure_package01:55
timelessThis software may (not) work and Nokia does not provide any guarantees. Do you still want to install it?01:57
timelessi take it you don't like 'at your own risk'?01:57
johnxthat's lawyer-speak that I wouldn't mind seeing on the cutting room floor :)01:58
timelessalright01:58
timelessyou picked 'may' over 'might'01:58
timelessany reason?01:58
johnxaesthetic preference01:58
timelessalright, may + but01:59
johnxdunno01:59
johnxI really don't care about the specifics, but I think the important part is including "Nokia" somewhere in there01:59
timelessshould do you want to install it be on its own line?01:59
Maceran arctic fox female has a penis and lays an egg in the male01:59
Macerhow odd01:59
johnxtimeless, they're the ones that cared enough to add a click-through to a linux package manager. it's important for users to understand that the warning is coming from them I think02:00
timelessmacer: that wikipedia article has dozens of typos in a single paragraph02:00
johnxalso: I'm sure the lawyers had to vet the original string02:00
Maceryeah.. i thought that was strange too02:00
Macertimeless: i think i'll find another article heh02:00

Macer;)02:11
soapI just saw a stat.  Forget the >50 number, but a vast majority of wiki edits are reviewed within 5 minutes.02:11
johnxwhich is silly, because as a corporation they may have a vested interest in affecting your opinions on certain subjects02:11
soapand individuals don't?02:11
Macerjohnx: possibly.. if there were encyclopedia lobbyists outside their doors ? ;)02:12
johnxthat was @Macer. I'm just too slow before coffee02:12

johnxand then...?02:15

b-manhello, hatseflats03:49
*** ssvb has quit IRC03:49
hatseflatsI follow the instructions on the maemo.org wiki page, but the flasher tool complains that there is no suitable usb device03:49
johnxare you running as root? does the usb icon appear on the n810?03:49
hatseflatsChecklist; correct flasher, correct image, battery charged, charger unplugged, device switched off, connected over USB, running as root, no icon on the n810, in fact, it's just 'off'03:50
hatseflatsno backlight, no led, nothing03:50
hatseflatsthe USB connection itself should be okay, I just used it to backup my /home03:51
*** jgoss has joined #maemo03:51
johnxok, so you plug it into usb, start the flasher, hold the 'swap' (aka squares button) and then you need to turn on the tablet03:51
hatseflatsnothing happening03:51
johnxthe tablet doesn't turn on when you press the power switch?03:52
Macerthis nzbget crap this popcornhour has is... interesting03:52
Macerit's kind of shitty03:52
hatseflatsjohnx: when I hit the power switch it does, when I hit the power switch AND the swap button, nothing happens03:52
johnxso it won't turn on if you press the power switch while holding the swap button? quite strange03:53
hatseflatsindeed03:53
hatseflatsflashing like this worked fine a few months back03:53
hatseflatsbut this isn't a known issue then?03:53
johnxok, isntead of hitting the power switch, try just plugging in the charger03:53
johnxcorrect, not a known issues AFAIK03:53

soapThey build it to the specs demanded of them.  I rather think the locale of manufacture has no direct bearing on the construction quality, rather is indicative of the level of money willing to be spent by the manufacturer.12:59
*** StsN801 has quit IRC12:59

Maceri think the lsd spider was the most fucked up13:09
glassbut which of the spiders was having most fun?13:09
Macerthe lsd spider13:09
soapso what you're saying is:  in a very price sensitive market, where people will make purchasing decisions based on savings of $10 or less, there is pressure on the manufactures to build it as cheap as possible with little regard to quality?  Whodda thunk it?13:09
Macerhaha13:09
Macersoap: sad but true :)13:09
glassit's not sad13:10
glassthats why your shuttle cost something instead of costing 3-5x13:10

Macerwanted to test 1 out first13:11
Macerfigured it might be a good server solution if it actually worked well.. lasted 5 months :)13:11
Macerput that on the "no" list13:11
soapthe only sad part about it is that the majority tends to remove options for the minority as (despite some pop-econ musings) there is little profit in manufacturing for the long tail.13:12
Maceramazingly small.. pci slot... lga 775 so you can put a pretty strong cpu in it.. 2G ram... 2 sata ports and and ide port13:12
glassMacer: it's an eycandy desktop, not a server replacement :D13:12
Macerno.. i don't think it was marketed as a desktop replacement13:12
Maceri think they specifically wanted these to be used as small business servers13:13
soapin that so long as the majority of the market is hyper price sensitive, the manufactures have little financial incentive to build for the less price-sensitive.  Most the non-PS products you see are actually aimed at the next largest demographic - the technical voodists - see "audiophile" products.13:13
Macerespecially when you consider it can run esxi ;)13:13
Macerhahaha13:14
Maceryeah i suppose so13:14
Macerbut ... considering the cost.... you just have to produce less and make the same13:14
soapahh, assuming linear cost structures, which don't exist.13:14
Macertrue13:14
Macerit sure doesn't :)13:15
glasssome products don't get any better if you throw money at them either13:15

soapthe economies of scale are so vast that a "quality" TV would cost disproportionately more than a "cheap" one.13:15

Stskeepsthp: which language?15:48
Stskeeps(which packages, more particularly)15:49
thpStskeeps: gpodder (python/pygtk), tennix (c/sdl)15:49
Stskeepsthp: probably not but best way is to test if it builds or runs :)15:50
thpStskeeps: so, if i want my apps in Mer, I have to re-compile them in a Mer SDK?15:50
Stskeepswe have taken a bit different direction than just patching on top of a maemo4, so things might be new and shocking (read: up to date linux alignment), so many things work :P15:50
Stskeepsthp: basically, if you grab the mer VMDK, and you can build your packages with apt-get install build-essentials, it will work15:51
Stskeepsthp: your python packages should work fine15:51
Stskeepsi would check right away but i dont have a mer installation handy :)15:51

*** dneary has joined #maemo15:53
StskeepsGeneralAntilles: i am still pondering how much trouble it causes if we state scratchbox is an accelerator and not what defines the platform it compiles for15:53
thpStskeeps: so, if mer continues at the current pace, it might be a real alternative for daily use to maemo (at least on n8x0 devices)15:54
StskeepsGeneralAntilles: which means, if it doesn't compile accelerated, it will compile "native" (emulation)15:54
*** z72ka has quit IRC15:55
Stskeepsthp: well, best way to test if your apps work is by installing mer, and simply installing the packages - mer allows you to build your packages on device too :)15:55

RST38hhttps://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=391316:26

RST38hjohnx: Any application that uses N810 ENTER key will not work with external keyboard enter16:27

johnxso the key on the right edge of the n810 keyboard sends the same keysym as d-pad center?16:28
RST38hjohnx: Ok, it is half of the problem. Another half is mechanical: because dpad center is easy to press accidentally, an app programmer would usually disable it16:28

johnxI never complained much because I figured I just wasn't smart enough to appreciate the sheer elegance of those lines...but yeah, they're kind of opaque18:17
* Stskeeps fails too understand how the heck Enter on USB keyboards can work.18:21
*** Dar_ is now known as Dar18:21
johnxwhat do you mean?18:21
johnxwhen you have a keyboard plugged in apps treat the 'Return' keypress differently18:21
Stskeepsi cannot find any piece of code matching it18:21
Stskeepsyeah, but where do they get the info from?18:21
qwerty12In mer? X86? ARMEL?18:22
* RST38h yawns18:22
RST38hOk18:22
johnxguessing now: I think H-I-M normally eats the "Return" keysym18:22
RST38hSts: Your USB keyboard is handled by a USB driver that send RETURN key event to /dev/input that gets mapped to GDK_Return by GDK18:22
RST38hSts: This is an absolutely normal situation18:23
Stskeepsyes, i agree18:23
RST38hSts: Any desktop GTK app will treat GDK_return as, well, return key18:23
aquatixbtw, is it a known bug/issue that the enter key of my keyboard doesn't work in Mer?18:23
aquatixquite confusing in a VM18:23
Stskeepsaquatix: exactly what we're discussing18:24
RST38hSts: Now, an extended PC keyboard (and they are all extended now except for portable ones) will also have a numeric keypad and on that keypad there is another return key18:24
aquatixStskeeps: yeah, got that feeling18:24
aquatixStskeeps: but i just dropped in here18:24
* aquatix listens for a bit :)18:24
RST38hSts: THAT key maps to GDK_KP_Enter but most desktop apps will treat it the same way as GDK_Return18:24
RST38hSts: And now we come to the problem: for some reason, Nokia mapped DPad center button to GDK_Return. When they made N810, GDK_Return was already taken, so they used GDK_KP_Enter for the REAL return key18:25
RST38hSts: At that time, it made sense to them. Now, when people port desktop apps to Maemo, it no longer has any sense18:25
RST38hespecially considering that GDK_Return is a live minefield, mechanically18:26
Stskeepsright, so why does USB keyboards work, and what reads the keyboard-attached thing?18:26
jaskadanger of repurposing something18:26
Stskeepsso GTK starts actually normally when receiving GDK_Return18:27
johnxRST38h, you have only an N810, correct?18:27
RST38hjohnx: Yep18:27
johnxRST38h, do you know the N800 behavior we're talking about?18:27
RST38hSts: USB keyboard will work with any app that takes KP_Enter into account18:27
RST38hSts: Sorry, with any app that rakes GDK_Return into account18:28
RST38hSts: no problem there18:28
RST38hSts: The problem is that on NIT, you are better off ignoring GDK_Return for normal navigation. And once you ignore it, USB keyboards do not work18:28
johnxthat's actually a different problem than the one we're talking about18:29
RST38hwhich one are you talking about?18:29
johnxon the N800 when there is no physical keyboard (usb or bt) attached, hitting d-pad center (usually) brings up the fullscreen finger keyboard18:30
johnxit still sends the "Return" keysym, but that never gets to the app18:30
johnxagain, in most cases18:30
*** dneary has joined #maemo18:30
johnxthis is only in text fields though18:31
johnxif you have a usb/bt keyboard present hitting d-pad center will actually act like a normal "Return" key, getting you a newline in the Notes app18:32
RST38hah, what you describe must happen somewhere in gtk18:32
RST38hnot even in gdk18:32
* RST38h has to go, will be back later to look at it18:32

qwerty12_N800timeless, if around btw, matchbox-remote expects the theme argument to be name of the folder -- not the name given in index.theme i did a dodgy workaround by adding '$f =~ tr/[A-Z]/[a-z]/;' but that is pretty stupid as it expects the theme folder name to be always lowercase...23:11
