n800penmanyou're all on here too?01:29
lardmanHow stable is that sshfs stuff? Will is clobber explorer?01:30
lcukyeah simon, tracy enjoyed it as well01:30

*** ccooke has quit IRC01:30
*** b-man16 has quit IRC01:30
lcuksshfs has been stable enough for me so far to run visual basic and export entire app designs out into liq* modules01:30
lcuk(basic ui only lol)01:30
*** dissent has joined #maemo01:31
lardmancool, might actually improve explorer's stability then :D01:31
* lcuk wrote an addin to parse vb forms and produce the layouts and also a makefile and stuff ;)01:31
lcukheh01:31
luke-jr-.-01:31
lcukluke-jr, stop gap measure until the designer within liqbase itself is ready01:31
lcuka prototype so to speak :)01:32
luke-jrlcuk: BUT DOES IT USE QT⁈01:32
lcukdoes it fuck, qt doesnt compile fast enough on my tablet01:32
lardmanyuck, c++ code01:32
lardman;)01:32
lcukim not waiting around for ages waiting for one singl,e file to compile01:32
* lbt ignores the pheasants01:32
* ShadowJK will have none of that QT stuff on his tablet01:32
lardmanlol01:32
lcuki might start using c++ again once i get a new tablet01:33
lcukbut for now on my 810 its too slow01:33
luke-jrlcuk is too slow01:33
ShadowJKThat's not to say I have anything against QT. However, I don't want TWO memory hogging toolkits in a memory constrained device, and I can't entirely get rid of GTK and be left with a usable tablet, so QT gets the ban for now :)01:33
lcukluke-jr, :) have you actually seen any of my stuff or do you just like bitching at things01:33
luke-jrmy tablet is GTK-less01:34
luke-jrlcuk: it's not in Gentoo!01:34
lcukits open source01:34
lcukport it01:34
lcuki build everything for it completely on tablet - just like you01:34
luke-jrno u01:34
luke-jrQt or fail01:34
lbtShadowJK: I'm hoping the SmartQ5+ will have 1Gb RAM....01:35
lbtand 3D accel01:35
lcuki thought the smartq didnt have 3d either?01:35
* lbt is obviously typing whilst asleep01:35
lcukwould be nice01:35
lbtwell, it doesn't have the specs available01:35
lcukbut after the work ive been doing its not an end game any more ;)01:36
lardmanlbt: it already has 3D accel01:36
lbtI didn't think we had drivers?01:36
lardmanlbt: it does have the specs available01:36
lbtoh01:36
lardmanno drivers, write your own01:36
lcuknice!01:36
lbtah01:36
lcukthats actually good fodder01:36
lardmannot a glib comment, certainly an option01:36
lardmanthere's a link to a CPU manual somewhere near the end of the thread on Talk01:37
lcukcreate raw miniature driver and build on it01:37
lbtwell, as I said, Greg KH is willing to advise01:37
*** pvanhoof has quit IRC01:37
luke-jrÖ01:38
* luke-jr wonders how long till Nokia realizes everyone will be migrating to SmartQ for next-gen technology if they don't get their act straight01:39
lardmanwell the smartQ is cool, as it's hackable, but really it's not nextgen hw01:39
*** k-s[AWAY] is now known as k-s01:39
lcuksmartq isnt really next gen01:39
lcukits just different01:39
lcuka backwards step in some respects - camera keyboard etc01:39
lcukbut the bigger one looks good01:40
lardmancpu is a bit faster, it may even have the same powervr mbx gpu, hard to tell01:40
luke-jrnext-gen = next generation01:40
luke-jreg, next purchase01:40
lcukanyone know if there are hangers on the back01:40
lardmanah, well few people will buy one over an n800 I wouldn't think01:40
lcuki want a wall mounted version01:40
lardmanunless they want to write drivers and the like01:40
lardmanlcuk: there's a stand, there's an unboxing video, etc., on umpc portal01:41
luke-jrN800 is inferior in every way…?01:41
lcukstand doesnt help01:41
lardmanno01:41
lcukhate the stand on 81001:41
lcuki press it falls over01:41
lardmanlcuk: well there's therefore a gap01:41
n800penmani'm going to stick with the other room for now01:41
*** n800penman has left #maemo01:41
lardmanI mean to make your own01:41
lcukyeah i know - i have the app very well in progress - i have the space on my wall for a bigger device01:42
lcuki want everything together and available01:42
*** gomiam has quit IRC01:42
* lcuk ropes his dad into woodworking lol01:42
lardmanI was close to ordering one today, but it's actually perhaps a bit too big01:42

luke-jris it just me, or does this SmartQ SoC support h.264 decoding in hardware?01:51
*** dissent has quit IRC01:51
lardmanyes, though apparently it requires some firmware to be loaded to drive the mini DSP which can access the hw accelerators01:51

luke-jrPDF is copyrighted, FWIW02:02
*** vobiscum has quit IRC02:03
luke-jrbut as long as that site with it is authorized, I see no reason a driver based on it would have issues02:03
ShadowJKand you'd need drivers for it too (h264 accel)02:03
luke-jrShadowJK: obviously02:03
luke-jrbut that PDF has full specs for everything I think02:03
lardmanyeah, other than for the firmware required to drive the mini DSP02:05
*** zap has quit IRC02:05
lcukcopyright protects copying, a pdf explaining a driver is one step removed from the driver itself - if the end result for us was a pdf explaining a driver in the style of the existing document then yeah its a problem02:06
lcukbut using the documentation and reimplenting a driver from it is fair game02:06
luke-jrexactly02:06
lardmanwell isn't it all fair game in Europe anyway?02:06
lcukthe further east you go, the more fair the game ;)02:07
*** lbt has quit IRC02:07

ShadowJKWell, all documentation is copyrighted anyway :)02:07
* lcuk moves to hull02:08
lcukall documents are copyrighted arent they now02:08
lcukunless explicitely specified otherwise02:08
luke-jryeah02:08
luke-jrbut NDAs aren't automatic ;)02:08
ShadowJKright02:08
lcukit would be hard if all documentation had to be attributed (C)2009 Gary Birkett02:09
ShadowJKSo it might be dubious if you copy big tables, but those big tables might be needed for interoperability anyway... :P02:09
lcukafter every line (C)2009 Gary Birkett02:09
luke-jrwho is Gary Birkett02:09

*** macmaN6789 has quit IRC02:11
ShadowJKman...02:12
lcuk...i feel like a bacon buttie02:12
ShadowJKI wish nokia didn't ever pre-announce or leak any models02:12
lcukbbl02:12
ShadowJKit's so damn annoying02:12
lcukme stopped waiting a long time ago02:12
luke-jrShadowJK: actually, it helps me in my argument a little02:12
luke-jrsince they haven't announced anything02:13
luke-jrI can insist on calling N810 their *current platform*02:13
* GeneralAntilles yawns tiredly.02:13
luke-jrand complain of their poor support for it02:13
ShadowJKOh I mean for picking a new phone02:13
ShadowJKI think GeneralAntilles can testify, that the situation over on the symbian side isn't that great either ;)02:13
luke-jrwho needs a new phone?02:13
luke-jrmy phone from 2004 works just fine02:14
ShadowJKor anyone who's used and tried to develop both symbian and maemo02:14
ShadowJKluke-jr, I need more ram in mine :-(02:14
GeneralAntillesSymbian is the suck.02:14
luke-jrShadowJK: why?02:14
GeneralAntillesThe core phone functionality is OK, but my free Samsung featurephone was OK at that.02:14
luke-jrI don't think i've even used half the addressbook space in min02:14
luke-jre02:14
Corsacdepends on if you need a phone to phone or if you need a pda, an internet access or whatever02:14
lcukluke-jr, thats a lot of sense in that - and you cannot blanket say better faster more tech will win the day: look at ps3 vs wii02:14
luke-jrCorsac: then it's not a phone :p02:14
lcukon speca slone the wii should be dead in the water02:14
Corsacmy point02:14
luke-jrspecs alone*02:15
Corsacthe only thing I hate on my phone is the ridiculous limit on sms numbers02:15
ShadowJKluke-jr, because when I run out of RAM, symbian picks to kill the program that would annoy me the most if died02:15
GeneralAntilleslcuk, game consoles are a weak comparison.02:15
lardmanlcuk: I bet the ps3 is better for architects, amongst others02:15
luke-jrmy phone doesn't even support SMS crap02:15
lcukstill got a curly wire?02:15
GeneralAntillesThe Wii's specs don't hinder you from doing things as a consumer.02:15
GeneralAntillesWhereas a slow tablet will hinder you from browsing some Flash sites.02:15
luke-jrlcuk: no, the antenna broke a long time ago02:15
lcukbut a fast tabnlet isnt much better - the iphone cant browse flash02:16
GeneralAntillesEither way, the Wii still has a ton of power nobody's tapped into yet.02:16
lcuk(or can it now)02:16
GeneralAntilleslcuk, the iPhone really isn't much faster.02:16
Corsacflash sucks anyway02:16
lardmanthat's generally considered a blessing!02:16
lcukbut its had all the rendering time taken off from the cpu02:16
lcukthats our biggest bottleneck02:16
lcukthis 810 is fuckinhg quick! :)02:16
LiraNunaimagine it with HW accel02:17
ShadowJKIt's not like much of the rendering done by QT or GTK can be accelerated anyway, they mostly just push pixmaps...02:17
luke-jrmy N810 has been trying to get a lock for 1½ hrs -.-02:17
lcukbbl anyway02:18
ShadowJKIt's impossible indoors unless you put it in a window that faces south ;)02:18
luke-jrShadowJK: Maemo does it indoors in a matter of seconds02:18
ShadowJKah02:18
luke-jrthe problem is stupid Nokia won't let us REALLY use the GPS02:18
lardmanno that's not true02:18
luke-jryes it is02:18
LiraNunahorray closed source02:19
* luke-jr glares at LiraNuna02:19
lardmanit would be nice if we could have access to the source to see if we can work out where the problem lies though02:19
*** GAN800 has joined #maemo02:19
LiraNunaluke-jr, sarcasm.... do you speak it02:19
luke-jrlardman: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438002:19
LiraNunaanyone tried ubuntu netbook remix on the N8x0?02:20
*** ttmrichter has joined #maemo02:20
luke-jrLiraNuna: afaik, b-man made it02:20
luke-jrfor the N8x002:20
LiraNunanot desktop ubuntu02:20
ShadowJKlardman, it's not something you can workaround in software except by AGPS, which reduces the amount of data that the receiver has to download from the satellites. It needs constant good signal from the satellite for quite some time, the bitrate is quite slow...02:20
GAN800LiraNuna, does a tablet sound like a netbook?02:20
LiraNunaGAN800, optimized for resolution02:20
GAN800LiraNuna, Clutter02:21
lardmanShadowJK: I was thinking more of whether corrupt nvd_data was causing a problem, and changing gpsdriver to avoid that02:21
ShadowJKWell luke is probably running it entirely without nvd_data?02:21
luke-jrShadowJK: probably02:21
lardmanShadowJK: I think there's a fundamental crapness to the chipset firmware and probably the snr of the signal due to the aerial, but we can't change either of those02:21
ShadowJKyeah02:22
*** alex-weej has joined #maemo02:22
luke-jras I mentioned, it works fine on Maemo02:22
Corsacfine, fine…02:22
Corsacit's usually quite slow02:23
ShadowJKlardman, I did reported SNR comparison between sirfstar and n810.. the n810 plot looked better actually02:23
ShadowJK(sortof)02:23
ShadowJKactually it's pretty hard to make sense02:24
lardmanI mean the lower level snr, of the actual signal from the sat, not the decoded pos02:24
ShadowJKhttp://enivax.net/jk/gps-10hrsatplot.png02:24
ShadowJKwhiter = bigger reported SNR02:24
lardmanah :D02:24
lardmanSNR has no fixed meaning in NMEA data, it can mean anything the manuf wants it to02:25
ShadowJKyeah02:25
lardmanI had a reference for that somewhere, I'll have to dif it out for you02:25
ShadowJKthough look at how broken the lines are towards the righthand side of the plot for the righthand receiver02:25
LiraNunawhat's the GPS chip on the N8x0 again?02:25
lardmanTi 5300 iirc02:25
LiraNunanot SiRFstar III02:26
LiraNuna?02:26
ShadowJKno02:26
ShadowJKif you want a sirfstar you buy one :)02:26
LiraNunaI'm just inquiring ...02:26
ShadowJKin maemo the GPS performance can be shockingly good sometimes02:27
lardmanLiraNuna: http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wtbu/wtbuproductcontent.tsp?contentId=4663&navigationId=12607&templateId=612302:27
ShadowJKlast weekend I clocked 7 seconds to first fix after a week of not using the GPS02:27
lardmanoh, look at the time, bed time for me02:27
lardmannight all02:27
Corsacwell, if you were at the same place?02:27
*** lardman has quit IRC02:27
ShadowJKThe AGPS data was up to date, yes02:28
ShadowJKIf you turn off the GPS and drive hundreds of kilometres, you need to give the agps a new hint if you want it to be fast...02:28

ShadowJKand grr at nokia once again... Just when I was thinking "ooooh, E75 will soon be available (for real), it's the most decent looking alternative right now", and then then they have to leak out information about an upcoming new phone that's kinda like E75 but adds media player hardware keys on the case... now I want that one instead, grrr.02:31
CorsacShadowJK: well, if you don't move, sure, but a gps isn't really often used without moving, even when off02:31
*** christefano has joined #maemo02:32
ShadowJK(and have to wait until July...August until it's available, by which time Nokia has probably another model that will soon be available which is more attractive)02:32
ShadowJKah well, it's great for my wallet, I'll never get around to it this way :)02:32
luke-jrCorsac: generally, I have GPS running whenever I'm moving02:32
ShadowJKI'd think you would have the GPS on when moving02:32
ShadowJKthat's what I do..02:32
ShadowJKEspecially if I would move far enough that it would be making a difference for the AGPS, because then I'd be far away from roads I know..02:33
CorsacShadowJK: not always, and there _definitely_ is a problem, a lot of people are annoyed by gps slowness (not only on n810). Some devices works better than other, thoug, and n810 is not in the list, from what I can see02:33
Corsacand no, you don't leave gps always on because it'll suck you battery at quick rate02:34
*** wazd has joined #maemo02:34
Corsacso you switch it on only when needed, and quite often it's far from the the last place02:34
ShadowJKah I just keep it on all day02:35
ShadowJKspeaking of day... it no longer is :) goodnight!02:35

*** christefano has joined #maemo02:37
CorsacI did that when I went to mexico02:37
Corsac(you're not really allowed to keep it on during take off and landing)02:37

luke-jrLOL02:45
GAN800You don't know that.02:45
luke-jrno02:45
luke-jrGAN800: I know that if it was REALLY a problem, they'd confiscate the devices02:45
luke-jror else they're being utterly negligent02:45
GAN800Can you tell me the frequencies every device on an aircraft operates on?02:45
GAN800or guarantee that no device could possibly step on them?02:46
luke-jrGAN800: if it could cause trouble, why do they allow us to take it on the plane?02:46
luke-jrand risk us breaking rules?02:46
ShadowJKthey even ask you to switch off mp3 players..02:46

Macerand when they first released them. were they all X3s?08:06
Macerno offense. but amd should have sucked up the short term losses and shelved the X3s and released only good X4s at the time of its release08:07
Macernow they are forced to sell their flagship at an incredibly low price because there is a stigma about them that they make inferior products08:08
luke-jrMacer: the short term losses are infinite08:08
luke-jris there a stigma?08:08
Maceri think there is :)08:08
RST38hwhat stigma?08:08
luke-jrI think the people who understand a X3 is an X4 with a core disabled is few08:08
luke-jrand out of those who do understand it, most understand that it's just fine08:09
ShadowJKintel's bottleneck in meeting demand for atom was actually in testing.. they could fit shitloads of them on a disc but their testing pipeline was designed for fewer amount and yield of chips that they'd get with huge cpus like core208:09
luke-jrand besides, what will they buy instead?08:09
luke-jrIntel does the same thing08:09
Macerluke-jr: but intel never released a processor with a core turned off08:10

Maceron how great its quad core performance was going to be08:10
luke-jrMacer: Intel releases core-disabled CPUs *all the time*08:10

Macerluke-jr: well.. i would agree with you if amd wasn't selling their top line cpus at crackhead prices to play catch up to intel08:12
ShadowJKinteo releases cpus with parts of cache disabled... cache takes up huge amount of die, so there's good chance defects will occur there08:12
Macerand i am sure the amd stock took a hit when it was discovered there was a MAJOR flaw in their destign that caused huge amounts of processors to come out as X3s instead of the quad core it was supposed to be marketed as08:13

Macerlet's see if i can find out when amd released the phenom and people discovered they were X3s instead of what they said it was supposed to be08:15
ShadowJKuh, intel most likely has same rate of defects per die area as amd, amd just sells more of the good stuff instead of dumping into landfill08:15
RST38hAMD marketed Phenom as x3 from the beginning08:15
RST38hSo, folks, I am not sure what you are arguing about08:15
ShadowJKyep, they promised x3 and x2 parts in addition to x4 parts long before the launch08:16
luke-jrRST38h: I guess someone made it up08:17
MacerRST38h: uhm.08:17
luke-jrRST38h: see the disclaimer above that my fastest CPU is single-core08:17

Macerbefore it was released amd was saying they were supposed to be quad core cpus... the only reason they released them as x3 was because there was a flaw08:18

*** pupnik has joined #maemo08:23
RST38hShadow: When AMD says "core does not work" it may not actually mean that the core does not work at all08:23

luke-jrMacer: AMD didn't say "problem" :p08:36
ShadowJKthey never did say problem. journalists said it, along with praising amd for being clever and not dumping those cpus in landfills like intel does08:36
ShadowJKenthusiasts and journalists actually like the advantages x3 and x2 gives, so I have a hard time seeing it as a mistake...08:38
*** booiiing has quit IRC08:38
ShadowJKyou could just as well say intel q9550 ayou could just as well say intel q9550 are broken and that intel should bin them instead of charging extra for the fixed q9550s :)08:41
MacerAMD currently has no answer for Intel's upcoming SSE4 instructions, which may widen the performance gap further in selected applications. On the other hand, unlike Intel's quad-core parts, which are basically two dual-core CPUs using a shared bus interface, Phenom has four distinct cores, which should also offer benefits.08:43
Macerwashington post 200708:43
Macernovember08:43
Macerhttp://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?symb=AMD&time=5yr08:44
* Macer points at november 200708:44
MacerHe also said the scarcity of review units was due to the complexity of a rollout that also involves the new 790FX Spider chip set and ATI 3800 series graphics cards, not because of any problem fabricating the new chips08:46
*** zap has joined #maemo08:46
Macernow mind you they had 1 month from a rollout.. and they are telling the washington post their "QUAD CORE" cpu is being released.08:46
luke-jrare you guys STILL going on about the core thing?08:48
Macerno. but i am reading about it08:49
luke-jromfg08:49
luke-jrhow hard is it to just PICK ONE AND BUY08:49
luke-jryou're spending more time on it than the price difference is worth08:49
Macerer.. i'm not :)08:49
Maceri already bought the phenom II08:49
Macerlol08:50
Myrttiluke-jr: is it spent from your pocket or your time?08:50
Macerthe discussion was really on the fact that amd released a faulty processor and sold it off and that it was seen as being broken08:50
Macerhttp://www.wired.com/techbiz/people/news/2007/10/rattner08:51
luke-jrMyrtti: well, it keeps making the channel red08:51
Macerthat's wired magazine's interview with intel's cto08:51
ProteousI'm happy with my Phenom x408:51
Macer:) at the bottom he talks about amd08:51
MacerSo, yes, (AMD has) a four-core product. I'm sure when they looked at their yield losses, they said, "Wow, we can offer a three-core version of this if one of those cores are dead or slow or whatever it turns out to be."08:52
ShadowJKnow that's an unbiased person to ask :)08:52
Macerlol08:52
Macerno.. it is hard to tell if he is defending them or helping them08:52
Macerat the very bottom where he talks about amd's tri cores08:52
ShadowJKwell intel too sells with various combinations of broken cache08:53
Maceramd said they released them because there was a small market for quad cores haha08:53
MacerShadowJK: but it didn't disable the core because the cache was broken08:53
ShadowJKwhile amd sells also the ones with working cache but a broken core08:53
Macerheh08:54
MacerRattner: I wouldn't make that much of it. This is a yield-improvement technique, plain and simple. IBM and Sony with their Cell processor -- they have eight (processors) on that that chip, and they said, well seven is the actually the number and one is a spare, or one is dead08:54
ShadowJKbecause both do the broken cache thing nobody thinks about it anymore08:54
Macerlook at that.. bitchslapped 3 competitors with one statement08:54
Macerthat guy is my hero :)08:54
Macerand even makes it look like he is being nice when really he is saying "our shit is less broken than theirs"08:55
Macerhaha08:55
ShadowJKhe isn't saying or implying that though :)08:55
Maceri don't know. it looks like he picked his words very carefully for that one08:56
Macerwhere he doesn't want to come off as arrogant but still wants to bitchslap the other guys08:56
Maceri mean if you read into it... he is saying "sure.. sometimes things aren't perfect.. but ibm and sony are selling dead cell processors and amd is releasing something that can't compete against us since it's also broken"08:57
ShadowJKhe's probably jelous intel didn't think of it first :) but that might also be because intel didn't have any genuine 4core cpus08:57
Macerlol.. i suppose not.. but still he was probably clicking his heels after that interview08:58
Macerhe just got put into the #2 spot of Macer's hero list... bill gates is still #108:58
ShadowJKthey glue together 2 dual cores, so that gives them higher yields at cost of performance, but they're so far ahead it doesnt matter if they're 50 or 55 percent faster :)08:59
Macerlol08:59
Maceryeah i suppose they aren't "spider" tech.. but they were doing pretty well with that method09:00
Macerlike i said. i think amd produces some awesome processors .. but that X3... it just left a bad taste09:00

lcukoDuda, obviously lots of writing to a card isnt good (its not good for hard disks either..)14:57
lcukbut the price of them is such that as long as you have backups i wouldnt worry14:57
oDudalcuk: sure... i worry on these cards during less than 1 one year...14:58
oDudalcuk: is that the case ?14:59
lcukoDuda, you should worry about all online media storage after 1 minute.  the lifespan of anything is not 100% certain14:59

lcukahh enough to get you started15:04
timeless_mbpiirc the n800's was actually mini w/ a mini->sd adapter15:04
oDudayes... but i put a new 4gb on it too... so...15:04
timeless_mbpbut i could be wrong, it's been a while15:05
derftimeless_mbp: It wasn't.15:05

* timeless_mbp looks between oDuda and derf ...15:06
* timeless_mbp is confused15:06

oDudaand about to setting the VM in N800... the max is 12X mb ?15:08
timeless_mbpthe ui max might have been15:08
timeless_mbpin practice, linux and vm isn't such a wonderful combination15:09
oDudayes... and hacking conf file is possible ?15:09

timeless_mbpi'm saying don't spend too much time thinking about it15:13
oDudapanaceas to me is useless too..15:14
timeless_mbpi think w/ most things on the n800 the right answer is "turn it on to the max, and forget about it"15:14
timeless_mbpe.g. browser cache which ships w/ the smallest size15:14

timeless_mbplcuk: some advice15:16
timeless_mbp1. have you seen cooliris?15:16
* lcuk puts it on a back burner15:16
timeless_mbp2. you don't want to load "just what you see"15:16
timeless_mbpyou want to load "what you should see" and "what you are likely to want to see next"15:17
lcukiris wont work well on stress though15:17
oDudathe society is like that...15:17
lcukyou have to wait for entire thing to load properly surely15:17
lcuki agree about loading future items as well15:17
timeless_mbplcuk: to be honest, i've never really used iris15:18
lcukthe old graffiti view used idle time to automatically load the next sketches15:18
lcukthe video looks right15:18
lcukfor pre-stored content it looks amazing15:18
lcukbut there has to be a large cost in loading those textures over the pcix or agp bus in the first place15:19
lcukso yeah - you can have an entire super wall rotatable but it doesnt look like  its got google earth type  stitching etc15:19

oDudathux: thank you... very cool aplication... run at n800 ?15:43
lcuktimeless, whenever this subject comes up, i wonder what the mileage of a generic clicktoview (like flashblock) would be that is binary standard plugin and doesnt depend on processing the entire js page searching for stuff the browser has already processed and identified as plugin15:44
lcuk^reprocessing15:45
* timeless_mbp shrugs15:45
lcukheh15:45
timeless_mbpthere have been a couple of plugin spy impls15:45
timeless_mbpthey basically do passthrough service to real plugins15:45
timeless_mbpit's certainly technically possible to take one of those and have it do something /slightly/ more interesting15:45
timeless_mbp(i.e. click to play)15:45
lcukyeah i did some  deep investigation on firefox/flashblock and found a whole load of limitations and things which could be done quicker15:46

timeless_mbpyou're looking at it from the wrong perspective15:46
timeless_mbpif you load a page and don't need th15:46
timeless_mbperr15:46
timeless_mbpimagine you visit http://stupid.example.com/15:46
timeless_mbpit can take 10s to load the page w/o images15:47
timeless_mbp10s to load the images15:47
timeless_mbp10s to load a flash applet15:47
timeless_mbpnow imagine that you don't need the images or flash applet15:47
timeless_mbpimagine it cost you 9s for a script to prevent you from getting the flash and images15:47
timeless_mbp19s is still cheaper than 20s or 30s15:47
lcukbut 10s to get and process the page and add the clicker is even better than 19s15:48
lcukand that works generically no matter what page size15:48
lcukand for all media types15:48
lcukthat req a plugin15:48
lcukalso - for that extra 9 seconds the flash might actually be running15:49
lcuk(as it does using flashblock on firefox)15:49
* timeless_mbp puzzles15:50
timeless_mbpthat's not my experience w/ noscript15:50
* timeless_mbp doesn't use flashblock15:50
lcukflashblock runs AFTER the page has been loaded, the flash is instentiated and runs and only gets replaced after15:50
timeless_mbpw/ noscript, the flash apps afaict are never instantiated until i click on them, not even downloaded15:50
lcukyeah maybe15:50

*** brolin has quit IRC18:42

luke-jrshrug. my goal is to replace gpsdriver with something open. these problems are just the method I am focusing on at the moment before more complex methods.18:45
qgilluke-jr: I guess you see the technical difficulties of playing with such driver... but it looks like you are overseeing that complications of opening it up18:46
luke-jris it that complex if TI IPR is stripped out?18:46
qgilluke-jr: how do you strip IPR out? Is not that simple.18:47
luke-jrif it's TI IPR, then presumably it preexists the Nokia code around it and can be identified easily?18:47
luke-jror is this more of a NDA-type issue?18:48
*** juergbi has quit IRC18:48
Jaffaqgil: I'm not such I can speak for Stskeeps or others, but the intention of h-a-m patches I submitted was to remove Maemo-isms like "user" from code running on Mer, as the first thing it does - as an OS - is ask what user you want to create; and that the packages are intended to run on relatively arbitrary systems18:48
Jaffaqgil: It would seem pretty horrible to have a *standard* "user" user, but perhaps a "gpsdriver-compat" package (which is open) could add the `user' account if a) gpsdriver can't be replaced; b) gpsdriver can't be changed to be programmed more flexibly or c) something else I've just forgotten18:49
qgilJaffa: and I understand that, but hopefully it is understandable that being able to user the Maemo binaries 'as is' in unofficial releases is already good enough18:49
* Jaffa nods18:50
lcukqgil quick question, in the bug report you mention that inside the gps driver there is code for uploading this info the nokias servers?  do we have any documentation on when this occurs or how to disable it?18:50
JaffaMight it be worth trying to get a Nokia policy change on future developments to not assume things like /home/user18:50
luke-jrlcuk: that's is supl-daemon I think18:50
fiferboylbt: Have you tested your FingerScrollable dynamic property?18:51
lbtno18:51
lcukok, just stuck out, the raw driver listens and decodes gps signals, it shouldnt ever need to talk ot or know about anything else18:51
fiferboyI don't see where anything is connected to when an application changes the property.18:51
qgilJaffa: do you mind making a enhancement request, or pointing me to any already filed?18:51
luke-jrthough you do raise an interesting point, lcuk18:51
*** murrayc has quit IRC18:52
luke-jranother reason not to have proprietary GPS driver, is to ensure our own personal privacy18:52
fiferboylbt: Do we need to use QDynamicPropertyChangeEvent?18:52
lbtfiferboy: it's not an api... more a status flag18:52
fiferboyAh, mine needs to be something that is changed programatically, I think.18:52
qgiler... that connection actually happens with the A-GPS and you are accepting the terms in that dialog asking for permissions to connect etc etc18:52
Jaffaqgil: I'll try and have a look tonight for one, and raise one if there isn't one18:52
lcukahh ok qgil :) so its in agps and not in the gps driver itself18:53
* lcuk hasnt installed agps18:53
luke-jrqgil: is it practical to get a quick low-level library to the GPS?18:53
qgilluke-jr: I don't understand your question, sorry18:53
fiferboylbt: Or I can define a Q_PROPERTY for it to be read and set18:54
*** dougt has left #maemo18:54
luke-jrqgil: gpsdriver basically "converts" ttyS0 data to NMEA data; I'm assuming the NMEA output generation is not TI IPR, and the TI IPR is the ttyS0 end18:55
luke-jrqgil: if Nokia can make a simple C library to take the ttyS0 end, we could write the other side from scratch18:55
qgilluke-jr: I don't know the technical details but the basic thing is: that driver will stay as it is because all our development is focused on a completely different location architecture18:55
luke-jr(ideally giving the library its ttyS0 path/pointer)18:56
Jaffaluke-jr: If Nokia were doing that, they could put the effort into opening the non-TI NMEA-generation bit - since it'd have to be written anyway18:56
JaffaWhich, as qgil says, ain't gonna happen18:56
luke-jrqgil: how about supporting Nokia's current hardware?18:56
*** christefano1 has quit IRC18:57

luke-jrlcuk: it "works" with an unmaintained Maemo version18:58
*** roue has joined #maemo18:59
lcukluke-jr, expecting nokia to support every OS out there is impractical18:59
* Jaffa also wonders (because this is better than doing anything else) about whether, if this is a growing problem (see also 3D drivers), the community could realistically find (& fund?) someone to work on behalf of Nokia to do the necessary work to split things up into reusable binary blobs.18:59
lcukshould they supply windows drivers?18:59
luke-jrlcuk: I'm not expecting them to, just expecting some kind of low-level library so *we* can write support ourselves18:59
JaffaBut that assumes the work on behalf of Nokia Legal is of no cost/budget to Maemo Software18:59
*** fiferboy is now known as fiferboy_away19:00
qgilthere is this idea of getting a community developer sign an NDA and etc etc19:00
qgilwell, in practice things don't work like this19:00
qgilNDAs are useful when the one who signs it can respond to liabilities19:00
Jaffaqgil: What're the biggest obstacles? Drain on dev. team to support new developer?19:00
VDVsxlcuk, we can try to setup community bounties for that propose19:00
qgilif you are a developer of a Fortune500 company you won't have much trouble getting offers to sign an NDA19:01
VDVsxeerr^^ Jaffa19:01
qgilif you are a community developer is clear that in case of trouble you basically are no liable19:01
Jaffaqgil: Ah, so an individual (even one in a company capacity?) doesn't have enough leverage to risk the leak?19:01
Stskeeps.. okay, what conversation did i just stumble into?19:02
qgilTI sues you Jaffa - so what?19:02
luke-jrStskeeps: gpsdriver19:02
luke-jrhmm19:03
Jaffaqgil: Why, fundamentally, is a Nokia employee more trustworthy though? Losing one's job (if one wants to be malicious) isn't necessarily the end of the world19:03
luke-jrqgil: so we need to find a CEO willing to back this? ;)19:03
lardmanthe other option is to simply write the code, present it to Nokia as a fait accompli. and ask them to sign it off19:03
qgilNow Maemo SW makes some kind of NDA agreement with Jaffa but then he goes and accidentally or not published the whole source code somewhere19:03
qgilTI sues Jaffa? No, of course.19:03
qgiland Nokia sues Jaffa? No of course.19:03
luke-jrlardman: um, if we write the code w/o any help from Nokia, then why present it to them at all?19:03
JaffaNo, TI sues Nokia. That's where the money is.19:03
lardmanluke-jr: to prevent from being sued by anyone19:04
JaffaJust like they would if a Maemo Software employee did the same.19:04
luke-jrlardman: as Quim is mentioning, individuals have no reason to fear being sued :p19:04
Stskeepsqgil: my personal view is that gpsdriver is fine closed, we can make a wrapper to fix the user problem (simply hijacking the getpwnam call), it's not perfect and a simple GPSDRIVER_USER environment variable patch to gpsdriver (still closed) would also be most welcome19:04
lardmanwell you could hire someone as a contractor, assuming you trust them, and pay them an arbitrary $1 for their work19:04
Stskeepsluke-jr doesn't share my view but i think more in direction of practicality19:05
*** andrewfblack has quit IRC19:05
lcuk+1 sts :)19:05
lardmanStskeeps: agreed there19:05
luke-jrlardman: still doesn't create liability19:05
qgilJaffa: companies work trusting each other - and companies trust their employees (even if they make them sign some papers just in case)19:05
lcukmiddle ground path of least resistance works best for all concerned :)19:05
lardmanluke-jr: yes it does, being employed by the company in question19:05
Stskeepsa little aid to very small patches to closed source packages would always be welcome, if a wrapper is not trivial19:05
luke-jrlardman: for $1, no loss if you lose that job19:05
*** andrewfblack has joined #maemo19:06
* Jaffa wonders how wonderfully thorough Nokia's recruitment process must be ;-)19:06
lardmanluke-jr: the point is not the job, but the access and the fact that being a member of a large company you're more likely to be offered the NDA to sign19:06
Jaffalardman: I think qgil's point is that *Nokia* have everything to lose by taking the liability, and not the person signing the NDA19:06
luke-jrlardman: yes, but Nokia isn't going to want to accept that liability19:07
qgilJaffa: well, you go through some rounds - I have heard worse horror stories from very popular companies19:07
lardmanJaffa: as I said, depends if you trust the person19:07
Stskeepsluke-jr: btw, thanks for telling me which syscall i have to wrap :P19:07
luke-jrStskeeps: -.-19:07
qgilJaffa: and this is why Nokia won't do anything like signing an NDA with a community developer, no matter how many karma points  ;)19:07
Jaffalardman: Indeed. I can see why Nokia (as a corporation) would make the distinction, even though I think we have good metrics - and evidence - of trustiness of particular people19:07
JaffaAnd so, at a practical level, the distinction is probably arbitrary (but, as I say, understandable to my corporate-addled mind)19:08

timeless_mbpfor the record, I got <ZERO>20:55
timeless_mbpbut I was quite happy with it and used it for many years20:55
RST38hOriginal NES had no builtin firmware.20:55
MyrttiI still used mine two years ago :-(20:55
RST38hSo this point does not apply to NES.20:56

timeless_mbpthere were components in the nintendo20:57
timeless_mbpit was theoretically possible for some of those components to break20:57
RST38hMyrtti: not a bad idea20:57
timeless_mbpif they broke and you were in warranty, you could get nintendo to replace them20:57
timeless_mbpnintendo never promised to give you schematics, and to my knowledge there were no user serviceable parts20:58
RST38hHow is it related to software? Especially, how is it related to software in NIT firmware that has been broken from the moment it has been shipped to users?20:58

timeless_mbp(nor did the 770 for that matter)21:18
timeless_mbpone of the major improvements the n810 had (and the only one that interested me) was the display technology21:18
timeless_mbpbut when people asked us about it as the product was announced, all I could say at the time was "it's winter here in helsinki, ask me in a few months when the sun comes out"21:19
timeless_mbpon this trip, someone forced me to remove the original plastic film that you're supposed to remove when you get your device21:19
