elninja__ | My n810 seems a little looser on the right side than the left, when the keyboard is slid out... The top/bottom half jiggle a little on the right, but not on the left... Is this normal, or is it a sign that my device was poorly assembled and may have future problems? | 00:01 |

jeremiah_ | I still think WiMax will lose to LTE. | 00:02 |
GeneralAntilles | I hope the RX-51 is better put together than the N810. | 00:02 |
johnx | jeremiah_, so do I at this point. but I think there might be room for competition with fixed broadband in rural areas | 00:03 |
jeremiah_ | johnx: Yeah, I suppose that might be an excellent way to use it. | 00:03 |
jeremiah_ | But I have seen so many WiMax projects falter. | 00:03 |
johnx | clearwire is doing that already with their draft-wimax network | 00:03 |
elninja__ | GeneralAntilles, are you saying things like i noticed are common? | 00:04 |
jeremiah_ | Here in 'telecom alley', they abandoned WiMax a while ago. | 00:04 |
johnx | it's only compatible with their own branded wimax adapters though AFAIK | 00:04 |
GeneralAntilles | elninja__, no, just an idle observation. | 00:04 |
elninja__ | ah | 00:05 |
jeremiah_ | johnx: That is total FAIL - they have to support off the shelf stuff to succeed. | 00:05 |
jeremiah_ | elninja__: I think my N810 is pretty well engineered frankly. I surprised to hear you are having problems. | 00:05 |
johnx | jeremiah_, I dunno. if they're replacing/competing with DSL/cable service people kind of expect a "rent the modem" scenario | 00:05 |
* Jaffa wonders about checking ITT/talk again before bed. | 00:05 | |
suihkulokki | yeah, wimax (or rather, the fixed point variant of it) will be usefull for rural broadband | 00:05 |
suihkulokki | but only when you put a wimax antenna on your roof | 00:06 |
Jaffa | It's only going to depress me, isn't it (but Stskeeps' post talk intrigues me) | 00:06 |
jeremiah_ | johnx: True, that is definitely true. | 00:06 |
GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, I wasn't able to spot Stskeeps' post, just go to bed and save the depression. | 00:06 |
johnx | but yeah, they really need to get their network updated to the real wimax/mobile wimax standard | 00:06 |
* jeremiah_ Runs to read Stskeeps' talk post. | 00:06 | |

elninja__ | jeremiah_, well, I haven't had problems yet. I've only had it 1 day so far, but I noticed that it feels more fragile than I was expecting from new unit.(especially with the sliding mechanism) so far I am really interested in what I can do with the device once I get some time to play with the SDK. I've been burned in the past with devices that failed due to manufacturing defects, and don't want to do something that may void my warr | 00:15 |

I googled it, and on the first page were several mentions of this problem. that thread was one of them where 4 out of 4 of the posts noticed this same quirk on their device. my statement about how I should have googled it was because I can found more info on it there than I did here. | 00:26 |

GeneralAntilles | You expect whoever you want to fix this for you to just guess what browser you're using? | 01:59 |
luke-jr_ | it's on the stupid titlebar | 02:00 |
GeneralAntilles | It's really not. | 02:00 |
luke-jr_ | wtf | 02:00 |
luke-jr_ | it was for me :/ | 02:00 |
luke-jr_ | weird | 02:00 |
Jaffa | paul0: Ah, OK :) The specific place might have people here who could help :) | 02:01 |
luke-jr_ | mayeb I need to report a bug for KSnapshot too | 02:01 |
luke-jr_ | but how the heck did it do that? :/ | 02:01 |
johnx | you also need to actually provide a description of the problem, and a proper title | 02:01 |
Jaffa | And if the bug report for KSnapshot's buggered, you'll have to report a bug against your browser... and that way recursive madness will lie ;-) | 02:02 |
luke-jr_ | XD | 02:02 |
johnx | luke-jr_, seriously, this is the perfect way to make sure your bug isn't given any attention | 02:02 |
luke-jr_ | hum | 02:03 |
luke-jr_ | I can reproduce one minor part of the bug in Firefox 3.1 ;) | 02:04 |

GeneralAntilles | roope, hey, if they hate this, it's looking like they'll end up loving Maemo 5. ;) | 02:42 |
johnx | GeneralAntilles, so, will we have another maemo.org color change to match maemo 5? :D | 02:42 |
GeneralAntilles | I sure as hell hope not. | 02:42 |
roope | Maemo 5 will be invisible. | 02:42 |
GeneralAntilles | This one was painful enough. | 02:42 |
GeneralAntilles | roope, ah, going after the blind market? ;) | 02:42 |
roope | With a huge d-pad. | 02:43 |
johnx | hopefully now we can keep the same layout and people can make themes | 02:43 |

GeneralAntilles | Hehe | 03:07 |
lcuk | when i download the source with apt so i can work on it, where is the most common location to put it | 03:07 |
lcuk | is there a general convention | 03:07 |
GeneralAntilles | sp3000, ever played 5 Degrees of Jesus? :P | 03:07 |
sp3000 | don't think so | 03:07 |
GeneralAntilles | Start with Special:Random then try to get to the article on Jesus in five clicks or less. | 03:08 |
johnx | lcuk, if you apt-get source foo, then it ends up in ./ | 03:08 |
lcuk | yeah johnx, but do ppl use a logical set of folders or just randomly drop source everywhere | 03:09 |
sp3000 | oh, darn, I can't start at jesus and thry to find my way to teletubbies in five steps or less? :) | 03:09 |

Xamusk | GeneralAntilles, indeed :( | 03:36 |
GeneralAntilles | Xamusk, maybe there's hope with HTML 5, maybe once Adobe ships official Linux ARM support. I don't know. | 03:36 |

GeneralAntilles | Xamusk, there was an FLV bug in one of the mplayer versions, I think. | 03:39 |
Xamusk | GeneralAntilles, well, I just downloaded mine from the repo today | 03:39 |
GeneralAntilles | It hasn't been updated in a while, so maybe there still is. | 03:39 |
GeneralAntilles | I'm not sure. | 03:40 |
Xamusk | ok | 03:40 |
Xamusk | for now I'm converting everything :( | 03:40 |

boomre | any idea where i can get more info about every part in this chart | 03:41 |
boomre | http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/6154/55528692.png | 03:41 |
boomre | iam a french so i have difficult to understand every color vs every result in maemo | 03:41 |
GeneralAntilles | boomre, maybe the ThemeMaker documentation? | 03:41 |
boomre | i try to find a good link for complete info about this sheme | 03:42 |
GeneralAntilles | http://thememaker.garage.maemo.org/ | 03:42 |
boomre | no i dont find it | 03:42 |
boomre | the point is i cant figure out what colors is for what cause iam french so its hard to me | 03:42 |
boomre | just whit name is too hard | 03:42 |
boomre | so i wanna find something where all color/parts is more explained | 03:43 |
GeneralAntilles | I don't know of anything off-hand. | 03:43 |
Xamusk | how do I unmount the sd cards? | 03:44 |
GeneralAntilles | Open up the doors | 03:44 |
GeneralAntilles | Which works unless they're in-use. | 03:44 |
boomre | + because nothing is here for more explain i need to built a little pictured tutorial for explain all part | 03:44 |
boomre | whit picture of a scrennshot of every part | 03:45 |
boomre | in the context | 03:45 |
boomre | anyway | 03:45 |

boomre | i know you are a master | 03:45 |

GeneralAntilles | Xamusk, um, the card covers. | 03:45 |
GeneralAntilles | They've got little magnets that tell the OS when they're open. | 03:45 |
Xamusk | GeneralAntilles, this is quite unusual, specially for the external one | 03:46 |
GeneralAntilles | Xamusk, assuming that the filesystem isn't actively in use it will attempt to unmount it when you open the cover. | 03:47 |
GeneralAntilles | and warn you if it fails. | 03:47 |
Xamusk | cool | 03:47 |

GeneralAntilles | If you have any particularly concrete ideas about how it should operate and the free time a wiki task would be great. | 05:02 |
GeneralAntilles | If not, I think I can hash something together this week. | 05:02 |
AndrewFBlack | where to put it in the wiki? | 05:02 |
GeneralAntilles | Task:File_hosting_on_maemo.org would be good. | 05:02 |

Davide | I was trying to use sfdisk to do this but got stumped because I don't quite understand how fdisk works... | 06:32 |
Davide | my current FAT partition is mmcblk0p1, and my linux boot partition is mmcblk0p2. When I run fdisk, it will ask me in sequence to assign sectors to the partitions. this means I will have to re-assigne the linus partition? and then assign swap in the 3rd position mmcblk0p3?? | 06:32 |

radic__ | mkswap swap.img | 06:34 |
radic__ | swapon swap.img | 06:34 |
man_in_pda | Davide, it's swap | 06:34 |
Davide | radic__ could you explain what those commands do because I don't want to risk killing my boot partition... | 06:35 |
radic__ | Davide: replace SIZE of the wanted size in bytes of your swap... | 06:35 |
*** kcahs_ni_nam has quit IRC | 06:35 | |
*** Xamusk has quit IRC | 06:35 | |
Davide | ok but where will it take the space from on the card? | 06:35 |
Davide | it's not gonna ruin the OS partition like that? | 06:35 |
radic__ | Davide: withe dd you write zeros from /dev/zero to swap.img, bs limits the size of swap.img | 06:35 |
radic__ | withe mkswap you create the swap"filesystem" in swap.img | 06:36 |
radic__ | and with swapon you "mount" the swap | 06:36 |
*** z4chh has quit IRC | 06:37 | |
radic__ | that's my preffered way to get a swap partition if I need more space oder If I fergot to create it | 06:37 |
Davide | radic__ what do you mean "you write zeros from /dev/zero to swap.img"? and I understand limiting the size, but where will it take the space from on the card? how do I know it won't partition from the wrong spot? | 06:38 |
Davide | right now there is the fat partition mmcblk0p1 from sector 1-30000 | 06:38 |
Davide | and the linux 83 partition mmcblk0p2 from 30001-end of the card | 06:38 |
radic__ | Davide: /exec -o df -hTa | grep swap.img | 06:39 |
*** z4chh has joined #maemo | 06:39 | |

Davide | what will that do? | 06:39 |
*** des^^ has quit IRC | 06:40 | |
radic__ | withe df you see the used space of the mounted filesystem, but it wasn't for you | 06:40 |
radic__ | I fergot to remove your nick... | 06:40 |
Davide | oh ok I'll ignore that then :) | 06:41 |
Davide | let me explain what I was trying to do. | 06:42 |
radic__ | cat: /proc/swap: No such file or directory | 06:42 |
radic__ | FilenameTypeSizeUsedPriority | 06:42 |
radic__ | /home/radic/test.img file4920-1 | 06:42 |
radic__ | it's a 512000 byte swap-file | 06:42 |
Davide | radic__ with sfdisk if I just run it on the whole card it will ask partition by partition to declare the sector size... if I go through them again that will ruin my OS partition correct? | 06:43 |
Davide | so I was trying sfdisk /dev/mmcblk0 -N1 which only edits the first partition | 06:43 |
Davide | and I was gonna make that idk 1,15000 to be storage for example | 06:44 |
Davide | then with sfdisk /dev/mmcblk0 -N3 that edits the 3rd partition I was gonna declare that as 15001,30000 to be swap | 06:44 |
Davide | I'm following the "Partition" page from the wiki on maemo.org for the fat partition it says to format with the command mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk0p1 | 06:45 |
Davide | and for the linux partition it says to format with mke2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2 | 06:45 |
radic__ | create a swap-file instand of a partition | 06:45 |
Davide | so for swap I would just format with mkswap /dev/mmcblk0p3 | 06:46 |
Davide | ? | 06:46 |
*** __leif__ has joined #maemo | 06:46 | |
Davide | oh the image file? is that better? | 06:46 |
Davide | what's the difference? | 06:46 |
radic__ | Davide: the the compete /dev/mmcblk0p3 is a swap-partition and all data are going to lose | 06:47 |
Davide | radic__ well as long as I'm taking from the Fat partition sectors I dont care because that partition is empty | 06:47 |
Davide | so but if I use dd if=/dev/zero of=swap.img bs=512000 count=1 | 06:48 |
Davide | then it will just create a swap image file that is 512MB in size? | 06:48 |
radic__ | 512kb | 06:48 |
Davide | or kb yes :P | 06:48 |
Davide | lol | 06:48 |
radic__ | 512*1024*1024 | 06:48 |
radic__ | 512*1024^2 | 06:49 |
radic__ | ;) | 06:49 |
Davide | but help me with the exact command how do I specifically tell it to use that card? instead of /dev/zero I use /dev/mmcblk0 ? | 06:49 |
Davide | or /dev/mmcblk0p1 more specifically? | 06:50 |
radic__ | if= is the sourece | 06:50 |
radic__ | of= the target | 06:50 |
radic__ | and you fill the swap.img withe zeros | 06:50 |
Davide | so the source would be that correct /dev/mmcblk0p1 which is my current FAT partition | 06:50 |
Davide | ? | 06:50 |
radic__ | if you use if=/dev/hda you fill the of= withe the data of hda | 06:52 |
radic__ | withe dd you can create a exact image of a partition or a disk | 06:52 |
* xnt is back | 06:53 | |

*** b-man has joined #maemo | 06:54 | |
man_in_pda | logs are fun | 06:54 |
b-man | yup | 06:54 |
Davide | radic__ and this won't erase any data right? | 06:55 |
Davide | it will just create a file | 06:55 |
Davide | ? | 06:55 |
radic__ | yes | 06:57 |
xnt | Davide: and btw just be careful with the dd commands you get on the forums you could just write zeros to your hdd/sd, but radic__'s command is correct | 06:57 |
Davide | xnt I'm trying to understand exactly what I'm doing sorry guys if I"m thick, just new to this. So with this command dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p1 of swap.img bs 512000 count=1 | 06:58 |
Davide | I will create an image swap file on my current FAT partition which is mmcblk0p1 | 06:58 |
radic__ | xnt: on a mounted partition too? | 06:58 |
Davide | is that correct? | 06:58 |
Davide | of=swap.img* | 06:58 |
radic__ | Davide: it will work, but why you will write the first 512000 bytes of /dev/mmcblk0p1 to your swap.img | 06:59 |
radic__ | fill the file withe zeros | 07:00 |
Davide | so that will automatically fill the file with zeros? | 07:00 |
Davide | oh if I write dd if=/dev/zero of=swap.img bs 512000 count=1 | 07:01 |
Davide | that will fill the file with zeros? | 07:01 |
Davide | but how will it know to create this from the mmcblk0p1 partition? | 07:02 |
Davide | I must be misunderstanding :( | 07:02 |
radic__ | I give up... | 07:03 |
Davide | radic__ I'm sorry but I'm new and it is unclear, knowing what I told you about the name of my partition and that's where I want to create teh swap... can you write the exact command I would personally need to enter for it to do this? | 07:04 |
Davide | I apologize | 07:04 |
radic__ | play a littele bit withe dd but DO NOT use any device for of= | 07:04 |
Davide | :( | 07:06 |
radic__ | needs someone the module-init-tools-3.8? | 07:06 |
Davide | thanks anyway | 07:06 |
Davide | when I enter "dd if=/dev/zero of=swap.img bs=512000 count=1" it says dd: can't ope '/dev/ZERO': No such file or directory | 07:13 |
Davide | can't open* | 07:13 |
radic__ | ? | 07:14 |
Davide | radic__ I'm sorry I'm totally clueless, I know it seems trivial to you but it's unclear to me still what I'm supposed to enter. I have no experience at all with these commands, and I don't understand what context they have to be used in. | 07:16 |
Davide | xnt how would the swap file be created in that storage partition with that command? | 07:24 |

THen I just created a new swap file with the same name and 512MB size. and turned it back on etc... seems to work fine. Could I have caused some deeper issues with that? | 07:58 |

luke-jr_ | so you're ok | 08:00 |
Davide | I didn't do swapoff at all luke-jr_ | 08:00 |
Davide | :( | 08:00 |
penguinbait | No, Davide, any problems caused by that would go away on a reboot. IT is possible your running system could bug out, but again 1 reboot should fix any possibility of that | 08:00 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: then you couldn't have make a new partition | 08:00 |
luke-jr_ | or are we talking files? | 08:01 |

luke-jr_ | even if you removed its filename | 08:01 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: filenames are not files ;) | 08:02 |
luke-jr_ | files are refcounted | 08:02 |
luke-jr_ | they only get deleted when nothing is using them | 08:02 |
luke-jr_ | you can have more than one filename point to the same file, for instance | 08:02 |
luke-jr_ | echo test > a ; ln a b ; echo hi >> b; cat a | 08:02 |
luke-jr_ | ☺ | 08:02 |
Davide | I see when I delete the file from file manager I am deleting that name but the system is still looking at those allocated bytes? | 08:03 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: the file still exists | 08:03 |
radic__ | if I remove in the /etc/fstab the noexec option for /dev/mmcb1k0p1 then I can execute files on it? | 08:04 |
luke-jr_ | radic__: depends on filesystem | 08:04 |
*** gopi has joined #maemo | 08:04 | |
radic__ | luke-jr_: vfat | 08:04 |
Davide | so each time I reboot the swap file gets disabled? | 08:04 |
Davide | it's disabled looks like | 08:05 |
luke-jr_ | radic__: vfat doesn't have an execute bit, so you might need more options to auto-enable it | 08:05 |
penguinbait | No radic, I do not think that will make any difference | 08:05 |
radic__ | the internal card is withe ext2 formated | 08:05 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: btw, you never want to put swap internal | 08:05 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: and avoid swap external too | 08:05 |
penguinbait | you can create a file on vfat and format it as ext and mount it and then execute files from it | 08:05 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: there is some mount option to make them all +x | 08:06 |
Davide | luke-jr_ on the external card? oh that's what I had done | 08:06 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: swap is bad for flash | 08:06 |
penguinbait | luke, never seen that?? | 08:06 |
Davide | luke-jr_ so where would you create the swap file? | 08:06 |
penguinbait | not on vfat | 08:06 |
Davide | so create a swap partition penguinbait? | 08:06 |
penguinbait | , I guess I never tried to fix it, just worked around it? | 08:06 |
Davide | so it's better to create a swap partition than a file in vfat? | 08:07 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: vfat SD | 08:07 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: but like I said, avoid swap if you can | 08:07 |
penguinbait | David, sorry what are you trying to do? | 08:07 |
penguinbait | what do you mean avoid swap if you can? | 08:08 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: radic__: fmask=0666 I think | 08:08 |
penguinbait | Yuo want a swap partition | 08:08 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: swap will ruin the SD card faster than normal use | 08:08 |
Davide | my original question was the fact that I have cloned to the internal sd card and created a 1gb approximately of vfat on the first part of the partition and the rest to the OS | 08:08 |
penguinbait | or swap file | 08:08 |
penguinbait | BS | 08:08 |
luke-jr_ | swap file on vfat will ruin it slower than swap partition | 08:08 |
Davide | and I was wanting to create a swap in that VFAT | 08:08 |
Davide | or part of that VFAT | 08:08 |
penguinbait | OR at least in my three years of doing this I have never ruined an SD/MMC/ card | 08:09 |
Davide | I followed the wiki guide on maemo.org | 08:09 |
Davide | so now I have 2 partitions | 08:09 |
Davide | mmcblk0p1 0,30000,6 | 08:09 |
Davide | and mmcblk0p2 30001,, | 08:09 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: great, how often do you use swap? | 08:09 |
penguinbait | luke not really, actually there is an extra memory buffor when it runs on vfat, but either way, you just need swap | 08:09 |
Davide | the first is VFAT the second is 83 | 08:09 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: vfat does some wear levelling | 08:10 |
Davide | so how can I split that vfat partition in half and have half be swap and half be storage? | 08:10 |
penguinbait | Always | 08:10 |
penguinbait | on my tablet | 08:10 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: also, flash cards are optimized/designed for vfat | 08:10 |
penguinbait | as soon as its enabled it starts using it, at the first website | 08:10 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: tbh, I'd use a file | 08:10 |
GeneralAntilles | Davide, you don't need more than 128MB of swap. | 08:11 |
luke-jr_ | you *can't use* more than 128 MB of swap ;p | 08:11 |
penguinbait | type free in xterm and you will see it used | 08:11 |
*** christefano has joined #maemo | 08:11 | |
GeneralAntilles | luke-jr_, that's clearly not true. | 08:11 |
Davide | why not? can you elaborate? | 08:11 |
luke-jr_ | GeneralAntilles: from experience, I've seen 128 MB swap the limit before watchdog resets from swappiness | 08:11 |
penguinbait | If you do not have swap enabledyou can hang and crash more often | 08:11 |
luke-jr_ | maybe the high performance SD patch helps a bit, not sure | 08:12 |
Davide | so virtual memory would be more than enough? | 08:12 |
penguinbait | I have seen as high as 256mb swap before death | 08:12 |
penguinbait | yes David | 08:12 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: hmm, maybe not actively swapping then? | 08:12 |
GeneralAntilles | 1.5x RAM is a good guideline for swap on most things, but our flash is slow enough that 1:1 is recommended. | 08:13 |
penguinbait | fire up KDE, and tell me if your activly swaping? | 08:13 |
Davide | I mean if using more swap like 512 that would not mean that you could run for example more applications at once? | 08:13 |
luke-jr_ | my N810 is building Python right now | 08:13 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: IIRC, no | 08:13 |
penguinbait | :) | 08:13 |
luke-jr_ | well, Python compile + KDE would active-swap, no dobut | 08:13 |
luke-jr_ | but just KDE doesn't | 08:13 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: it's not practical to use that much | 08:13 |
penguinbait | fire up konquorer | 08:13 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: Konqueror is preloaded ;) | 08:14 |
penguinbait | and kmail | 08:14 |
*** vandenoever has quit IRC | 08:14 | |
luke-jr_ | kmail will do it | 08:14 |
luke-jr_ | :/ | 08:14 |
penguinbait | and konsole | 08:14 |
penguinbait | and maemomapper | 08:14 |
luke-jr_ | I wish I could replace plasma | 08:14 |
luke-jr_ | I don't think Maemo Mapper is ported | 08:14 |
Davide | luke-jr_ but are there physical limitations that cause instability or something like that? or do you just mean that I won't likely use more than that much memory? | 08:14 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: Maemo Mapper forces swapping even with Maemo | 08:14 |
luke-jr_ | by itself | 08:14 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: swapping is slow | 08:15 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: before you hit 512 MB swap use, the system will get so slow the CPU assumes it crashed | 08:15 |
penguinbait | all maemo apps are available under my kde | 08:15 |
luke-jr_ | and the watchdog will reboot it | 08:15 |
*** gopi is now known as gopifoo | 08:15 | |
*** glima[AWAY] is now known as glima | 08:15 | |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: I don't even have GTK+ installed ;) | 08:15 |
*** gopifoo is now known as gopi | 08:15 | |
Davide | luke-jr_ I see I guess I just don't know how swapping works... I don't understand what the system does exactly when it swaps | 08:16 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: it copies something in memory to the swap file/partition | 08:16 |
GeneralAntilles | Davide, it uses mass storage devices as RAM, basically. | 08:16 |
luke-jr_ | then when it needs that memory again, it reads it back | 08:16 |
*** glima is now known as glima[AWAY] | 08:16 | |
Davide | and the reason it would become so slow like you say arises from what? | 08:16 |
penguinbait | David, it take memory and puts it on disk, to make room for more important insctructions | 08:16 |
luke-jr_ | yes, SD read/write is slow | 08:16 |
luke-jr_ | very slow compared to real RAM | 08:17 |
luke-jr_ | so for 512 MB swap, you'd need to basically read and write a full 128 MB four times per cycle | 08:17 |
luke-jr_ | not exactly, but summarizing | 08:17 |
penguinbait | yes luke-jr, but it has been my experience with some type of swap, systems will crash more often | 08:17 |
penguinbait | oops | 08:18 |
penguinbait | without | 08:18 |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: that's when you run out ;) | 08:18 |
Davide | oh so the size of the swap determines how much data has to be written each cycle? | 08:18 |
luke-jr_ | Davide: no, the amount of swap you use | 08:18 |
luke-jr_ | and unused swap is usually just a waste | 08:18 |
GeneralAntilles | penguinbait, it's a fine line to walk between OOM killings and watchdog killings. | 08:18 |
penguinbait | without swap, you could run out and die just by going to http://internettablettalk.com | 08:19 |
penguinbait | at least for a few more days | 08:19 |
GeneralAntilles | Maybe on the crappy old theme, but it's much lighter now. | 08:19 |
penguinbait | GA, have you had any card failures? | 08:19 |
GeneralAntilles | No | 08:19 |
Davide | so I would not be able to run Maemo-mapper, canola, xchat, Openoffice 2.4, pidgin, and browse the internet all at the same time :D | 08:20 |
* luke-jr_ wonders how/if one would notice a failure | 08:20 | |
luke-jr_ | Davide: you might be able to if you patch Maemo up ;) | 08:20 |
luke-jr_ | eg, have it send SIGSTOP to background programs | 08:20 |
GeneralAntilles | luke-jr_, same way you notice a drive failure. | 08:20 |
penguinbait | I can honestly say I bet I have read/written more data to their SD cards than most people, with never one failure | 08:20 |
GeneralAntilles | Suddenly it stops working. | 08:20 |
* b-man starts to compile a decompiler on his tablet | 08:20 | |
luke-jr_ | penguinbait: SD card brand matters, also | 08:21 |
penguinbait | I am all ingston | 08:21 |
luke-jr_ | higher quality SD cards might do better wear levelling than others | 08:21 |
penguinbait | I am all Kingston | 08:21 |
luke-jr_ | mine are all lowest bidder ;) | 08:21 |
penguinbait | oh and one San Disk | 08:21 |
luke-jr_ | b-man: ARM decompiler? | 08:21 |
Davide | luke-jr_ I see, there would be no benefit to having a 512MB swap file | 08:21 |
GeneralAntilles | No, higher-quality cards have more durable NAND. | 08:21 |
luke-jr_ | I have Lexas and A-data | 08:21 |
b-man | luke-jr: kinda | 08:22 |
luke-jr_ | Lexar* | 08:22 |
luke-jr_ | b-man: link? :D | 08:22 |
penguinbait | you get what you pay form there is a reason they come with a lifetime warranty :) | 08:22 |

penguinbait | david, 256 is plenty | 08:22 |

luke-jr_ | b-man: it has no website? | 08:23 |

b-man | lol | 08:23 |
GeneralAntilles | luke-jr_, sure, you can have that if you want to pay $500 for an 8GH SD card. | 08:23 |

penguinbait | has anyone in here had failures, and if so what brand? | 08:24 |
luke-jr_ | I suspect a forum thread would be better suited to that question | 08:25 |

* johnx shrugs | 11:07 | |
AStorm | hello | 11:08 |
lcuk810 | johnx lol i didnt notice maemo had closed lol | 11:08 |
AStorm | which FS is recommended for immc? | 11:08 |
lcuk810 | i just carried on typing | 11:08 |
Stskeeps | ext2/ext3 doesn't matter :P | 11:08 |
thux | morning after mayday | 11:08 |
lcuk810 | i had ext2 | 11:08 |
johnx | AStorm, depends on what you want to do. | 11:08 |
AStorm | Stskeeps, I'd prefer btrfs w/ compression, but unfortunately it's not available | 11:09 |
AStorm | and I'd need later kernel for it | 11:09 |
johnx | sharing with windows/camera -> vfat. using with linux -> ext2/3 | 11:09 |
AStorm | johnx, immc. a chip | 11:09 |
lcuk810 | sts would u paste the bits fom #liqbase where i finished my storylol | 11:09 |
AStorm | that's not meant to be shared excluding hotair desoldering | 11:09 |

*** stiev3 has quit IRC | 11:10 | |
lcuk810 | yeah johnx hurt muchly | 11:10 |
AStorm | hmmh, so no better fs more tuned to flash available? | 11:10 |
johnx | I believe it | 11:10 |
AStorm | (esp. to slow flash like that one) | 11:11 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk810, they covering your medical expenses? | 11:11 |
johnx | AStorm, not that's tuned to dealing with flash that has a hardware block device translator on top | 11:11 |
AStorm | johnx, yeah, well | 11:11 |
aquatix | lcuk810: ick, good luck with your finger | 11:11 |
AStorm | pity I can't use btrfs in SSD mode | 11:11 |
AStorm | (and compression, which really helps) | 11:11 |
johnx | you can actually use btrfs on a block device? | 11:11 |
AStorm | maybe once I up the kernel in mer | 11:11 |
AStorm | johnx, uhm... it's a normal filesystem? | 11:12 |
lcuk810 | yes gen, every single person went above and beyond their jobs to help me as much as possible | 11:12 |

AStorm | hell if I know | 11:15 |

AStorm | I guess that DSP still has some stuff in it, or maybe it's some flag update | 11:15 |
AStorm | or whatever | 11:15 |
johnx | s/stuff/junk/ | 11:15 |
AStorm | yeah | 11:15 |
AStorm | but it's not self-explanatory | 11:16 |

lcuk810 | mornin tangarine | 11:32 |
lcuk810 | not by default, no | 11:33 |
GeneralAntilles | Actually, how hard would it be to just drop the numpad and add a line of numbers up top? | 11:33 |
Stskeeps | scibotic: maemo is surprisingly hardcoded to user | 11:33 |
Stskeeps | GeneralAntilles: probably not hard, but i'm an idiot at GTK :P | 11:33 |
scibotic | Bugger. Well the internal SDHC card I'm using already has a filesystem setup for a particular user and I'd rather not butcher the permissions. | 11:34 |

*** lbt has joined #maemo | 11:34 | |
lcuk810 | mornin lbt | 11:34 |

AStorm | soon, I'll make the first preview release | 11:35 |
* lcuk810 scrrolls | 11:35 | |
AStorm | (w/o X bindings though) | 11:35 |
GeneralAntilles | Grafiti is faster than hwr for smaller screens. | 11:35 |
AStorm | faster? as in, what it is other than hwr? :P | 11:36 |
GeneralAntilles | Proper HWR | 11:36 |
AStorm | it's special kind of symbols | 11:36 |
GeneralAntilles | Not shorthand | 11:36 |
lcuk810 | explain difference between hwr and graffiti plz | 11:36 |
AStorm | ah, well | 11:36 |
AStorm | it's *proper* hwr then | 11:36 |
AStorm | :) | 11:36 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk810, no, I'm in technical-laziness at the moment. | 11:36 |
AStorm | the hardest part is UI stuff | 11:36 |
AStorm | there is no good binding, including hildon | 11:36 |
lcuk810 | was talkin to astorm | 11:36 |
GeneralAntilles | I don't really think handwriting on a small screen works very well. | 11:37 |
AStorm | for good stuff, I'd need the position of the textbox | 11:37 |
AStorm | it does. | 11:37 |
AStorm | (assuming the detection quality is good) | 11:37 |
GeneralAntilles | Newton is about as small as I'll actively handwrite on. | 11:37 |
AStorm | n810 is larger, heh | 11:38 |
GeneralAntilles | Than a Newton? | 11:38 |
AStorm | screen-wise, yes | 11:38 |
GeneralAntilles | Erm | 11:38 |
GeneralAntilles | How many Newtons have you used, exactly? | 11:38 |
AStorm | exactly one, once, for a short time | 11:38 |
AStorm | :) | 11:38 |
AStorm | and its UI for hwr is excellent | 11:39 |
GeneralAntilles | Yeah, um, the WHOLE FREAKING N800 is smaller than the Newton's screen. | 11:39 |
AStorm | yes, but higher res | 11:39 |
AStorm | so you can actually write better | 11:39 |
GeneralAntilles | I'm not talking about resolution. | 11:39 |
GeneralAntilles | I'm talking about absolute screen dimensions. | 11:39 |
AStorm | hmmh | 11:39 |
AStorm | well, Nokia's fine for handwriting with me | 11:39 |
GeneralAntilles | and the N800's screen is too small for me to comfortably handwrite on. | 11:39 |
AStorm | you can easily fit a line of text | 11:40 |
*** greentux has joined #maemo | 11:40 | |
AStorm | (horizontal mode - vertical is... different) | 11:40 |
AStorm | other than that, I could use better hooks in hildon, yes | 11:41 |
lcuk810 | 85" $95 5/!5 &!@ | 11:41 |
lcuk810 | its not that bad even | 11:41 |
AStorm | not just "show the IM" which returns text | 11:41 |
AStorm | hildon context is a bit poor in info | 11:43 |
lcuk810 | what do you mean | 11:43 |
lcuk810 | why would your im care where it is placed as long as its visible | 11:44 |
lcuk810 | as an input method you should be subserviant | 11:44 |
AStorm | yes | 11:45 |
AStorm | but I'd like to know where to display the input surface | 11:46 |
lbt | 'lo lcuk810 | 11:46 |
AStorm | because another window is inconvenient and resizes windows in matchbox | 11:46 |
lcuk810 | \o | 11:46 |
AStorm | so, I'd put an overlay | 11:46 |
lcuk810 | not your prob astorm, job of hildon isnt it | 11:47 |
AStorm | to do that, I need x,y of the textbox | 11:47 |
AStorm | sure it is, it's an input method | 11:47 |
lcuk810 | that should be feasible tho, dont you get a reference to the current activecontrol | 11:48 |
lcuk810 | i know im used to having context avail in vb lol | 11:49 |
AStorm | XID of the "textbox window" you say | 11:49 |
lcuk810 | yeah or gtkbox | 11:49 |
AStorm | yes, I could use low-level X functions to grab that | 11:49 |
AStorm | except I still have to cheat and send events at the box to simulate key input | 11:49 |
AStorm | instead of having proper functions for this | 11:49 |
AStorm | if I want real-time input | 11:50 |
lcuk810 | mmh an input method shouldnt try to get hands on the app itself rly? it should supply an input stream only | 11:51 |
AStorm | yeah, but not in a way of sending text around | 11:52 |
lcuk810 | think speech recognition, no ui, just moving cursor and pushing text in | 11:52 |
AStorm | this means it can't do real-time input | 11:52 |
AStorm | yes, but current input is pure block of text | 11:52 |
lcuk810 | course it can just like a bt keyboard can | 11:53 |
lcuk810 | thats just another im | 11:53 |
AStorm | nah, it's not | 11:53 |
AStorm | it's actual X keyboard driver | 11:53 |
AStorm | which sends actual X events | 11:53 |

*** ScriptRipper has joined #maemo | 11:55 | |
lcuk810 | lol "input method" | 11:55 |
AStorm | at least I can detect the textbox losing focus | 11:56 |
AStorm | (thanks to the context) | 11:56 |
lcuk810 | wont it technically lose focus as son as your im is shown | 11:58 |
AStorm | ok, end of moaning, time to install Mer | 11:58 |
lcuk810 | lol | 11:58 |
AStorm | it will - but that doesn't matter | 11:58 |
*** scibotic has quit IRC | 11:59 | |
AStorm | because it's the context that does hiding and showing | 11:59 |
AStorm | and I can send X events at the correct XID | 11:59 |
lcuk810 | yeah | 11:59 |
AStorm | alternatively, I can mark the window as non-focus | 12:00 |
lcuk810 | so hard typin with 1 hnd | 12:00 |
AStorm | with the added "benefit" that matchbox will treat it as an overlay window | 12:00 |
AStorm | but I don't know whether I can force the position of the overlay | 12:01 |

Stskeeps | a little over 2 weeks to go | 12:35 |

Stskeeps | aladds: take a look at https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=Maemo%3AMer%3ADevel (make a novell account) | 12:36 |
AStorm | too slow = not enough bandwidth for real sound | 12:37 |
RST38h | depends on your definition of real sound | 12:37 |
AStorm | need 10 Mbit | 12:37 |
AStorm | 44100 kHz, 16bit, stereo | 12:37 |
AStorm | uncompressed or lossless | 12:38 |
RST38h | 64kbd should be enough | 12:38 |
AStorm | 1 Mbit. | 12:38 |
aladds | Stskeeps: looks fun | 12:38 |
AStorm | actually, 1,5 Mbit | 12:38 |
RST38h | Sound compresses REALLY well, so you do not need 1Mbaud | 12:38 |
AStorm | so BT with EDR *might* do it | 12:38 |
AStorm | not that well | 12:38 |
RST38h | 64kbaud is enough | 12:38 |
AStorm | Flac has 50% ratio | 12:38 |
AStorm | anything more than this means expensive hardware to decode | 12:39 |
Stskeeps | aladds: we build simultaneously for debian armel/x86, ubuntu armel/x86, without any scratchbox etc | 12:39 |
aladds | nice | 12:39 |
RST38h | AStorm: just sending deltas instead of absolute values will compress sound by 50% | 12:39 |
RST38h | or more | 12:39 |
Stskeeps | no arm hardware involved, too, or arm systems emulated :P | 12:39 |
RST38h | depending on what you are compressing of course | 12:39 |
AStorm | no, that will give you 20-25% | 12:39 |
AStorm | I know, because flac does this too :) | 12:39 |
RST38h | on white noise (44kHz) it will give you 0 | 12:39 |
AStorm | yep | 12:39 |
AStorm | but white noise is nice, because it's uniform | 12:40 |
RST38h | on a guitar quartet it will give you 90% | 12:40 |
AStorm | so in longer term it compresses well | 12:40 |
AStorm | nah, 90% from a real sound is impossible | 12:40 |
AStorm | as in, real-life recording | 12:40 |
RST38h | if you simply delete it and regenerate it on the other end, yes | 12:40 |
AStorm | unless it's lossy | 12:40 |
RST38h | but I guess it won't work well because most noise isn't really white :)) | 12:40 |
*** myosound has quit IRC | 12:40 | |
AStorm | yep | 12:40 |
AStorm | still, flac can do noise well, has some additional tricks apart from Rice encoding | 12:41 |
*** Meizirkki has joined #maemo | 12:41 | |
* RST38h is surprised flac only compresses audio by 50% | 12:41 | |
AStorm | but 1,5 Mbit should pass through BT w/ EDR | 12:41 |
RST38h | way to low imho | 12:41 |
AStorm | it's fast | 12:41 |
AStorm | it's average 50% | 12:41 |
AStorm | or so | 12:42 |
RST38h | ah | 12:42 |
AStorm | on fast setting | 12:42 |
RST38h | so it is worse on rock, better on strings... | 12:42 |
AStorm | and it's mostly a static codec | 12:42 |
AStorm | nah, actually, it's not bad on any real input | 12:42 |
AStorm | the main advantage it's that its static and lossless | 12:43 |
AStorm | so needs little CPU power | 12:43 |
AStorm | also, it's open - I wonder why it hasn't been adopted for that BT standard | 12:43 |
RST38h | "static" == "losless"? | 12:43 |
AStorm | there's even an open royalty-free hardware implementation | 12:43 |
AStorm | no | 12:43 |
RST38h | then what? | 12:43 |
AStorm | static means it doesn't use dynamic codebooks and random advanced tricks | 12:43 |
RST38h | (well BT has had limited bandwidth historically so they probably consider flac wasteful) | 12:44 |
RST38h | ah ok | 12:44 |
AStorm | so it's very simple to decode | 12:44 |
AStorm | well, 1,5 Mbit is wasteful | 12:44 |
AStorm | 700 kbps is not | 12:44 |
AStorm | :) | 12:44 |
RST38h | so in a sense "static" ~= "stateless" | 12:44 |
AStorm | and with BT+EDR it can be easily done | 12:44 |
RST38h | if it does not construct codebook dynamically | 12:44 |
AStorm | almost, it has some small amount of state, but yes, that's it | 12:44 |
AStorm | it does construct the codebook dynamically | 12:44 |
AStorm | on encoding | 12:44 |
RST38h | ah | 12:44 |
AStorm | the trick is that there's one codebook, and it's not changed every some random amount of time | 12:45 |
AStorm | and many other tricks that advanced lossless encoders use | 12:45 |
AStorm | the lookahead is also limited | 12:45 |
AStorm | so buffering one block is enough | 12:45 |
AStorm | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLAC anyway | 12:46 |
RST38h | =) | 12:49 |
lcuk | heh http://www.motivatedphotos.com/?id=16460 | 12:50 |
*** anibal has quit IRC | 12:50 | |
AStorm | haha, it's easy to "hypnotize" someone to want what he already wants | 12:51 |
AStorm | ;P | 12:51 |
derf | AStorm: FLAC doesn't _guarantee_ a compression ratio (no lossless codec can), which tends to make hardware designers nervous. | 12:51 |
* RST38h to his surprise found that the R500 works in sunlight WITHOUT the backlight | 12:52 | |
AStorm | derf, nothing guarantees | 12:52 |
RST38h | derf: well that goes without saying | 12:52 |
RST38h | you can't beat the information theory | 12:52 |
*** igagis has joined #maemo | 12:53 | |
derf | AStorm: Sure it does. You can guarantee size, if you don't guarantee quality. | 12:53 |
*** igagis has quit IRC | 12:53 | |
AStorm | only lossy compression guarantees | 12:53 |
lcuk | ylu can however say that you compression algo at worst case scenario results in 1:1 | 12:53 |
AStorm | yes | 12:53 |
derf | That's what I just said. | 12:53 |
*** igagis has joined #maemo | 12:53 | |
AStorm | so, you could still use flac | 12:53 |
derf | "(no lossless codec can)" | 12:53 |
derf | lcuk: Plus one bit. | 12:53 |
RST38h | lcuk: 1:1 + some metadata :) | 12:53 |
AStorm | it *almost always* compresses better than 30% | 12:53 |
AStorm | in mathematical senfse | 12:54 |
AStorm | *sense | 12:54 |
RST38h | "almost" has no meaning in mathematical sense. | 12:54 |
AStorm | it has. | 12:54 |
lcuk | i think we should just outlaw "1" bits | 12:54 |
derf | RST38h: Yes it does. | 12:54 |
derf | "Almost always" means everywhere except a set of measure zero. | 12:54 |
RST38h | Well you can define it, like they do in approximation algorithms theory | 12:54 |
RST38h | derf: mmm,ok | 12:55 |
derf | It is a strict mathematical term. | 12:55 |
RST38h | derf: does it apply to physical entities though? | 12:55 |
AStorm | yes, it means everywhere except if the signal has maximum entropy | 12:55 |
derf | If you can put them in a measure space, yes. | 12:55 |
derf | And most physical entities map to measure spaces very well. | 12:55 |
AStorm | but you could extend flac to do lossy... like WavPack | 12:56 |
AStorm | still, that's FLAC 2, not FLAC ;P | 12:56 |
*** matt_c has joined #maemo | 12:56 | |
AStorm | like MPEG-4 SLS | 12:56 |
* RST38h points out that any audio with percussion instruments is pretty high up there in terms of entropy | 12:57 | |
AStorm | no, it's not, because that's mostly pink noise | 12:57 |
RST38h | So, good luck compressing that death metal CD =) | 12:57 |
AStorm | check out how well that compresses with FLAC - you'll be suprised | 12:58 |
RST38h | hmmm | 12:58 |
AStorm | note volume changes rarely | 12:58 |
RST38h | it does not compress well with MP3, that is for sure | 12:58 |
AStorm | so Rice coding will drop most bits | 12:58 |
derf | That's because MP3 is a transform codec. | 12:58 |
AStorm | yeah, MP3 is sucky on transients | 12:58 |
AStorm | yup | 12:58 |
RST38h | But how would FLAC compress it if it is noise, i.e. consists of random unpredictable sequences of samples? | 12:59 |
AStorm | it's not noise, hehe | 12:59 |
derf | It's _shaped_ noise. | 12:59 |
AStorm | yes | 12:59 |
RST38h | You are not supposed to lose any sequences. You can't make a codebook because they are pretty random. | 12:59 |
derf | That's what "pink" means. | 12:59 |
AStorm | "pretty" random | 12:59 |
AStorm | like a fractal | 12:59 |
AStorm | see how well fractals compress | 13:00 |
RST38h | Shaped or not shaped, you have got a semirandom input sequence | 13:00 |
AStorm | not *that* random. | 13:00 |
RST38h | Which you are not allowed to lose | 13:00 |
AStorm | it's still predictable | 13:00 |
AStorm | even with a linear predictor | 13:00 |
AStorm | volume changes rarely, for example | 13:00 |
*** filip42 has joined #maemo | 13:00 | |
* RST38h finds this counterintuitive | 13:00 | |
AStorm | compression is not that intuitive, yes | 13:01 |
RST38h | Not *that* weird though, no =) | 13:01 |
RST38h | Or maybe those percussion tracks are not as random as they seem... | 13:02 |
RST38h | Also weird. | 13:02 |
AStorm | yes, they're not random | 13:02 |
AStorm | the most random part is the *timing* of the spike | 13:02 |
AStorm | but that doesn't matter with a linear predictor, which can reproduce transients perfectly, even if they won't compress that well | 13:03 |
*** mat`` is now known as mat | 13:03 | |
AStorm | (the falling part is predictable though) | 13:03 |
AStorm | actually, both are | 13:04 |
AStorm | pity we can't do wavelet compression in any normal amount of CPU time | 13:04 |
derf | Wavlets are overrated. | 13:05 |
AStorm | a bit, yes | 13:05 |
AStorm | to compress well with them, a lot of CPU power is needed... | 13:05 |
AStorm | the simplest A2DP could use FLAC with changing bit depth | 13:07 |
AStorm | and/or frequency - if the channel can't sustain the transfer rate | 13:07 |
AStorm | it does that already afaicr | 13:08 |
*** torkiano has joined #maemo | 13:09 | |

*** herzi has quit IRC | 13:29 | |

AStorm | then reflash initfs and see | 13:31 |

Stskeeps | http://pastebin.com/d2200fb6d | 13:31 |
Stskeeps | yes | 13:31 |
Stskeeps | it did download, untar and all that jazz? | 13:32 |
Stskeeps | basically all installer does is partition, format, etc, grab the image file, untar it on the ext3, and setting up root password through chroot and write the bootmenu item and flashing it to the initfs | 13:33 |
Stskeeps | you can refresh_bootmenu.d (i assume you ran Install bootmenu once) | 13:33 |
Stskeeps | and it will just update the /etc/bootmenu.d dir on initfs | 13:33 |
AStorm | yeah, it did | 13:33 |
AStorm | refresh_bootmenu.d? is that a script? | 13:33 |

GeneralAntilles | lbt, and, no, we don't calculate any IRC karma. | 14:47 |
RST38h | irc karma....ah...yummy! | 14:47 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, it has nothing to do with liqbase and everything to do with IRC karma. | 14:47 |

AStorm | a lot of nuts working on it | 14:48 |
AStorm | ;) | 14:48 |
AStorm | so, who needs 2.6.21 again? | 14:48 |
lbt | sorry GeneralAntilles but if you aim to measure discussion aimed at contributing to the maemo community then I think you are wrong. If you aim to measure chat in #maemo then fair enough. | 14:50 |
lbt | "I can't think of a way to bound the number of channels" is a bad counter argument but a valid problem | 14:51 |
GeneralAntilles | lbt, so you want to index #canola, #carman, #tinymail, etc? Hell, I've done a fair bit of community work in my own clan channel #trem-null, so we can index that too. ;) | 14:51 |
lbt | what is the aim? | 14:51 |
lbt | measure discussion aimed at contributing to the maemo community ? | 14:51 |
lbt | so yes | 14:51 |
GeneralAntilles | Anyway, whatever, let's start from #maemo and then go from there. | 14:52 |
lbt | the objective looks like it needs more work to achieve.... that's all | 14:52 |
lbt | is canola a major application on maemo?... hmm, let me see the download stats.... | 14:53 |
lbt | and it shows the devs are active and they deserve karma.... | 14:53 |
lbt | anyhow, as you say, lets take it from #maemo.... but let's not forget the aim is not to measure #maemo | 14:53 |
GeneralAntilles | You HAVE to come up with concrete guidelines for what's a justified channel. | 14:54 |
GeneralAntilles | 'cause if you just go and pick your personal set of favorites. . . . | 14:54 |

AStorm | Stskeeps, so, how do I make that new option the default? | 14:55 |
AStorm | edit bootmenu.conf? | 14:55 |

GeneralAntilles | http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?p=283892#post283892 | 15:16 |
Jaffa | lbt: The other counter-argument to anything other than #maemo (or rather against #canola et al) is that the product-based chats get their authors karma for downloads. | 15:17 |
Jaffa | The argument for indexing #maemo is, pretty much, IMHO about recognising people who contribute in the *main* Maemo community spaces. | 15:17 |
lbt | that works for the whole team does it? | 15:17 |
Jaffa | lbt: can do - you can have multiple authors against a product | 15:17 |
lbt | or just the main uploader? | 15:17 |
Jaffa | For example, mgedmin and I both get karma for https://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/vim/ | 15:18 |
GeneralAntilles | lbt, you can add as many authors as you want to the Downloads entry. | 15:18 |
GeneralAntilles | People are awfully quick to say how useless they think the wiki is, but I've yet to see them offer to lend a hand improving it. | 15:18 |
lbt | you can see how #canola would proportianally represent the team though | 15:18 |
GeneralAntilles | For that specific example, they're almost all in here anyway. | 15:19 |
lbt | well, I kinda started it for #mer... and realised it wasn't just us :) | 15:19 |
Jaffa | lbt: indeed. I'm willing to accept their may be additional channels to include, but let's start with #maemo (after all, there's /some/ resistance to that) and go from there. | 15:19 |
Jaffa | Actually, concrete proposal: #maemo and #mer to start with. | 15:19 |
Jaffa | Since #mer is the future for current Maemo-based devices (we all hope ;-)) | 15:20 |
* Jaffa notices an odd breadcrumb trail bug on the vim downloads page. | 15:21 | |

AStorm | Stskeeps, well, your initfs is broken | 16:04 |
AStorm | I mean, it doesn't boot mer, because... INT_whatwasit is mmcblk0, as Maemo says... but it doesn't work | 16:04 |
AStorm | any ideas? | 16:04 |
AStorm | I get a watchdog kill | 16:04 |
Stskeeps | AStorm: INT_CARD vs EXT_CARD is important to remember to have | 16:05 |
Stskeeps | how does your item look? | 16:06 |
AStorm | ${INT_CARD}p1, which resolves to mmcblk0p1 | 16:12 |
AStorm | yes, I get a watchdog kill | 16:12 |
AStorm | this time it installed ok (I made /var/tmp a ramdisk)... but it doesn't boot still | 16:12 |
*** Pyrhos has quit IRC | 16:13 | |
AStorm | might be that I didn't load ext3 stuff, funny though | 16:13 |

*** Pyrhos has joined #maemo | 16:13 | |

AStorm | shouldn't be necessary, as the filesystem is ext2 | 16:14 |
AStorm | maybe I have to load that instead? | 16:14 |
AStorm | or is it built-in? | 16:14 |

RST38h | with or without dynamic recompilation, you probably won't have much luck with x86 on arm | 19:30 |

*** avs has joined #maemo | 19:31 | |

AStorm | dosbox is not *that* intensive running modern protected mode code | 19:31 |
RST38h | AStorm: And address translation? | 19:31 |
AStorm | ... protected mode. No segments. | 19:31 |

*** melmoth has joined #maemo | 19:31 | |

RST38h | Ah | 19:45 |
AStorm | I don't care actually, x86 segments were aligned on page boundary | 19:46 |
AStorm | (x86 page, 4KB) | 19:46 |
RST38h | nope | 19:47 |
RST38h | they were aligned to 16 bytes | 19:47 |
RST38h | still are, too | 19:48 |
AStorm | hmm, true | 19:48 |
AStorm | no problem for ARM though | 19:48 |
RST38h | anyways, x86 has got so much weird non-optional hardware that simulating it on a different architecture quickly is near impossible | 19:48 |
RST38h | good for Intel monopoly though =) | 19:49 |
AStorm | all that is done in dosbox already | 19:49 |
AStorm | we have to add the JIT for CPU if possible | 19:49 |
RST38h | I know it is, but not quickly enough | 19:49 |
AStorm | that should help a lot | 19:49 |
AStorm | another bit is sound emulation | 19:49 |
RST38h | yes, it will help...a bit | 19:49 |
AStorm | a huge way, not a bit | 19:52 |
AStorm | because just using the JIT would be a good gain | 19:52 |

pupnik | i think you'll be able to run 16mhz 386 games on next dosbox on next tablet | 20:03 |
pupnik | with sb1/2 emulation running, frameskip 1-2 | 20:03 |
pupnik | basically it means breaking out of the ega and into the vga era | 20:03 |
RST38h | Let me see... | 20:04 |
RST38h | 386 did one instruction in 4-8 clocks, on the average | 20:04 |
AStorm | except we have to simulate gfx scanlining | 20:05 |
RST38h | I.e. we are talking about 2-4MIPS | 20:05 |
AStorm | and do some scaling | 20:05 |
lcuk | pupnik, you mentioned dangerous work, heres an outline of what happened http://slashdot.org/~LiquidCoooled/journal/229097 | 20:05 |
RST38h | Ah forget graphics for now, VGA graphics is really simple anyway | 20:05 |
lcuk | graphics on 810 are fast enough | 20:05 |
pupnik | good grief lcuk | 20:06 |
RST38h | Yes, you should be able to do 2-4MIPS on N8x0 | 20:06 |
AStorm | except you have to simulate the scanlines and scale the output... (the latter can be hardware, I also want an Xv driver for dosbox) | 20:06 |
pupnik | you could bank on my prediction RST38h :) too much time spent with dosbox | 20:06 |

lcuk | the ui mikkov_ posted | 23:16 |
qwerty12_N800 | AStorm: i'm using the new package category for that package. don't think mer is using them atm though :/ | 23:16 |
AStorm | yeah, it isn't | 23:16 |

AStorm | Advanced Power is crying about missing hal-addon-bme - I recommend a symlink | 23:16 |
AStorm | oh, wait, diff. server | 23:17 |
AStorm | then a repo link | 23:17 |
AStorm | also, fix that Organize finally or sth | 23:19 |
AStorm | (and/or tell me how to reorder stuff manually) | 23:19 |

xnt | yeah ok | 23:22 |

ShadowJK_ | xnt, I have this terrible feeling that nokia will try to do something "revolutionary" and "progressive", and make a "phone" without GSM/3G voice, just VoIP and maybe UMA | 23:31 |
xnt | ShadowJK_: thats my exact fear, but by the looks of that picture that mikkov posted maemo5 will also be runable on the n97 :) | 23:32 |
ShadowJK_ | Doesn't mean they'd necessarily have legacy voice support in maemo :) | 23:33 |
ShadowJK_ | speaking of UMA, they should really have that on every S60 atleast :( | 23:33 |
ShadowJK_ | not just ONE model :/ | 23:33 |

timeless_mbp | mikkov_: last i checked any Maps app that might exist for Maemo5 was nowhere near remotely usable | 23:49 |
timeless_mbp | so I'd bet against it being related to Maemo5 :) | 23:49 |
*** oilinki has joined #maemo | 23:50 | |
timeless_mbp | also, the scrollbar in one of the slides to me indicates someone isn't very good w/ PhotoShop | 23:51 |
timeless_mbp | i mean... really | 23:51 |
AStorm | ShadowJK_, even then, we can fix that | 23:51 |
AStorm | as in, it's released with all proper docs for the modem and it's the first thing being done :) | 23:52 |
timeless_mbp | people need to learn how to PhotoShop :( | 23:52 |
AStorm | lern2gimp | 23:52 |
AStorm | ;P | 23:52 |
ShadowJK_ | nah | 23:52 |
ShadowJK_ | docs wont be forthcoming | 23:52 |
timeless_mbp | so, let's play a game | 23:52 |
AStorm | why not... it's not like GSM modems contain hundreds of trade secrets | 23:53 |
timeless_mbp | can someone tell me what else is wrong between frame 1 and frame 2 of wiki-steps.jpg? | 23:53 |
lcuk | timeless, alternatively they could use the screenshot tool on the device itself | 23:53 |
AStorm | but yes, some companies are crazy | 23:53 |
ShadowJK_ | Or atleast I thought Nokia made a point of it when Symbian gained RTOS capability, that they now could run softmodem and the OS on the same single CPU rather than having two different CPUs for it | 23:53 |
AStorm | all we need is a way to talk to it in actual raw packet way | 23:53 |
timeless_mbp | frame-1 = "Services", frame-2 = "WikiPlaces" | 23:53 |
AStorm | then you can have normal voice via GPRS | 23:54 |
AStorm | or even old GSM | 23:54 |
ShadowJK_ | And Linux never gained any softmodem implementation on the regular telephone side, so I'd assume it'd never gain an implementation for 3g and gsm either :) | 23:54 |
lcuk | lololol timeless i notice something else | 23:54 |
AStorm | uhm? | 23:54 |
AStorm | wrong. | 23:54 |
AStorm | 3G and GSM are much easier | 23:54 |
AStorm | softmodems require knowledge of the modem chips | 23:54 |
timeless_mbp | lcuk: what did you notice? :) | 23:54 |
AStorm | it's not like we don't have software radios already | 23:55 |
lcuk | either the app took a LONG time to start, ot they have a tardis or its multi sessions :D | 23:55 |
AStorm | so, if we can feed it raw packets... (supposing these are well-formed) | 23:55 |
AStorm | but for FCC cert purposes Nokia will have to provide a binary blob driver anyway | 23:55 |
timeless_mbp | lcuk: good catch :) | 23:55 |
AStorm | :/ | 23:55 |
AStorm | (if they go software way at all) | 23:55 |
timeless_mbp | what else? :) | 23:56 |
lcuk | timeless, the frame1 to 2 titles are expected to change arent they - if after all the user clicked a button and ran a different app | 23:56 |
timeless_mbp | lcuk: general placement and width of buttons should not change | 23:56 |
*** s7 has left #maemo | 23:56 | |
timeless_mbp | since in theory they're managed by the platform | 23:56 |
timeless_mbp | sure you can expect "Services" to be replaced by "Wiki Places" | 23:56 |
lcuk | ooh i hadnt caught that one lol | 23:56 |
lcuk | you sir have a good eye :) | 23:57 |
*** skibur has quit IRC | 23:57 | |
timeless_mbp | i'm not quite sure about the right edge | 23:57 |
timeless_mbp | but whatever thing on the left ... i claim that's a photoshopping error | 23:57 |
timeless_mbp | and that leaves not much confidence for the right side :) | 23:57 |
timeless_mbp | oh. and would someone please remind me to kill whichever map localizer was involved? | 23:58 |
timeless_mbp | "Your Current Position is" <- what kind of Drunken Titlecaps is That!?? | 23:58 |
timeless_mbp | btw, please excuse my ignorance of metric units, but... | 23:59 |
timeless_mbp | do you usually write: "1km", "1k", "1 k", "1 km", or something else? :) | 23:59 |
AStorm | 1 km | 23:59 |
