* qwerty12_N810 wonders if it'll be able to run MIDP stuff, being a phone and all...00:22
Stskeepsit should be powerful enough for it00:23
Jaffaqwerty12_N810: I'd be surprised OOTB, but Jalimo etc will run well00:24
JaffaThe new ARM JVMs are reasonable enough on an N8x0 once started00:25
JaffaHopefully the fasterness will help there (and Python, too)00:26
JaffaBed time00:26
qwerty12_N810It'd be interesting, after all, even my old N-Gage (no, it was not used for calls) could run MIDP 1.0 stuff :)00:26

Stskeepsa heads up :)00:38
Stskeepswill be writing a patch for it probably00:39
qwerty12_N810I'm not an maintainer of it anyway, it was just a move to 2.8.6 and other hacks that I wanted to see00:39
Stskeepsah00:39
RST38biswhat apis btw??00:40
StskeepsRST38bis: ah, we upgraded to gtk 2.14 and newer libosso, something's bound to go wrong00:40

*** promulo has quit IRC04:17
doc|hometimeless_mbp: you'll see there I said "hopefully"04:17
Luke-Jrhm04:18
Luke-JrI might be tempted for a RX-51 if its keyboard didn't suck even more than the N810's already does04:18
timeless_mbpyou could have just as easily said "it's new, hopefully that'll mean it'll have great battery life"04:18
timeless_mbpLuke-Jr: some people claim it the keyboard will indeed suck less than the n81004:18
Luke-Jrtimeless_mbp: just LOOK at it04:19
timeless_mbpand one would hope that once in a while we'd learn from our mistakes04:19
doc|hometimeless_mbp: how would its age alone possibly influence battery life? it being thicker may mean it contains a larger battery.04:19
Luke-Jrit's an abomination04:19
timeless_mbpLuke-Jr: i do that 5 days a week, please don't make me do that on my days off :)04:19
Luke-Jrdoc|home: unlikely. Nokia seems to be more concerned about using their existing batteries than using space available04:19
doc|homeLuke-Jr: that'd suck :/04:20
timeless_mbpdoc|home: newer technology could mean better power management04:20
timeless_mbpor the software could be less dumb about power use04:20
Luke-Jrdoc|home: the N810 no doubt has more room for battery that it doesn't use04:20
timeless_mbpthere are lots of ways04:20
timeless_mbpthe point is that your logic is as bad as mine04:20
* doc|home sighs04:20
timeless_mbpLuke-Jr 's logic otoh is quite sound04:20
timeless_mbpwe try to reuse components04:20
timeless_mbpit saves money04:20
timeless_mbpor rather, reduces cost04:20
timeless_mbpanyway, i'm still hungry04:21

Jaffachx: Yeah, only one map can be active and you need to choose which one ;-)10:12
chxok let's see maemo mapper this is a pos.10:12
Jaffa'Maps' isn't too bad. Just quirky10:13
*** andrei1089 has joined #maemo10:14
chxhow can i get maemo mapper to rotate to north and also to zoom in ? the zooming in out from menu is very .. cumbersome10:16
Stskeepszoom in can be done with menus10:17

chxso those are not hardwired for volume control?10:18
*** herzi has quit IRC10:19
chxso... neither maps nor maemo mapper can route with public transit? (google maps can)10:19
JaffaNo, any app (Maps, Maemo Mapper, browsers) can use the top button10:19
Jaffachx: Maemo Mapper uses Google Maps for routing, so it may be possible there10:20

*** geaaru has joined #maemo10:28
chxoh. #176 let me see that10:29
chxyay this worked.10:30
ShadowJKdoc|home: 1320 is smaller than n810 battery. You can only hope the bluetooth doesnt randomly decide to use huge amounts of power as on n81010:31
ShadowJKand that the wlan chip uses less power and less cpu to push data over spi10:31
ShadowJKand that the gps uses less power10:31
ShadowJKand that the cpu can idle lower, and that the software doesnt do stupid and unneeded timers10:32
chxok i feel really stupid, how do i route with maemo mapper?10:33
chxthe menu has route but only open download and save?10:33
Stskeepsroute->download10:33
Stskeepsit grabs it from google maps10:33
Stskeepsit doesn't autoroute, btw :P10:33
Stskeeps(afaik)10:33
chxdownload... curious!10:34
chxthe tablet has frozen.10:34
Stskeepsnah, it's just badly synchronous10:34
ShadowJKbest thing really would be if the battery door design was simple and versatile enough that some innovative chinese company could cheaply make and sell a bigger battery+door10:35
chxShadowJK: thats happening.10:35
chxhttp://www.mugenpowerbatteries.info/epages/es109514.sf/en_US/?ObjectPath=/Shops/es109514_es120302495377/Products/HLI-N810XL10:35
chxShadowJK: just the whole n810 market is too small10:37
chxShadowJK: so we do not see something like Garmin porting their GPS app to the device10:37
ShadowJKYeah I mean I hope they make a battery for the next device too10:38
RST38hWait10:39
RST38hThe battery is the same as 5800 battery10:39
RST38hLet us see if there are higher cap replacements for it10:39
*** wazd has joined #maemo10:40
RST38hheya wazd10:40
wazdRST38h: heya10:40
RST38hOk, there IS a 2200mAh 5800 battery but it is twice as thick and comes with its own back cover10:40
ShadowJKI bought a hugher cap replacement battery, mugen power, for my n800. It was sold as and labeled as 1800mAh, however its true capacity is 120010:40
ShadowJKhigher cap*10:41
*** LinuxCode has joined #maemo10:41
wazdShadowJK: hmm, native n800 battery is 1440 or something10:41
ShadowJKit even reports 1200 through the third pin on it :-) it's kinda funny when it says 1800 on the battery itself10:42
RST38hShadow: Oh well10:42
Stskeepsprobably wouldn't work with BME and 1800? :P10:42
RST38hShadow: That is a Chinese product.10:42
RST38hSts: No reason why not10:42
ShadowJKstskeeps: nah it probably would work, but the battery meter would be useless. after full charge it would assume 180010:43
ShadowJKmy original n800 battery has about 900mAh usable capacity left, but reporting is fixed at 1500 or near that at time of manufacture10:43
wazdRST38h: btw, I think it has a full SD slot10:44
chxso I think I miss a manual or something.10:44
wazdRST38h: of fracking mini SD at most10:44
chxi cant figure out the routing10:44
RST38hwazd: I doubt it, compare the size to the SIM card slot10:44
RST38hwazd: miniSD is more like it10:44
RST38hwazd: No sweat, an adapter makes it work with microsd10:44
chxI gave it a street address and did not really route.10:44
wazdRST38h: I don't understand where's the sim and where's the sd :)10:44
RST38hwazd: the sim is under the battery10:44
wazdRST38h: oh10:45
wazdRST38h: I thought it was on the edge :)10:45
RST38hwazd: It has got easily recognizable surface contacts10:45

chxShadowJK: but then i do not have gps :/10:46
RST38hwazd: Mmm...The image also shows a bunch of RCA AV jacks, compare to them10:46

Stskeepsas long as it's not minisd, i'm fine.10:51
wazdRST38h: I think it would be good for uber-slim device, not for such juggernaught :)10:51
RST38hwazd: well they did leave the power socket, so we should be fine10:51
StskeepsRST38h: they left power socket? i doubt that10:51

*** flo_lap has joined #maemo13:41
LinuxCodeI think many more people would like such a device13:41
lcukRST38h, which bit of the software, its a modem13:41
RST38hlcuk: So you want to keep your open Linux system closed to closed software hence the condom13:41
LinuxCodeno manufacturer would be wrong with creating a device that supports that13:41
lcuktalk via AT commands dont you13:42
StskeepsLinuxCode: one of the best things about maemo is that you can get rid of it13:42
lcukor modern equiv13:42
LinuxCodeStskeeps, agreed13:42
javispedroAddison, what??  The problem is that the IBM JVM doesn't boot, probably because it depends on PalmOne libraries or some other unknown thing13:42
LinuxCodeStskeeps, Id be very happy if the device kept a kernel or something13:42
RST38hlcuk: Seriously, if it is a USB dongle, you talk via USB messages that MAY (but do not have to) encapsulate AT serial protocol13:42
LinuxCodeif there needs to be closed source rubbish in there, so be it13:42
LinuxCodeas long as I can run my own distro on top13:43

StskeepsLinuxCode: http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer/Documentation/N810_GPS13:46

RST38hlcuk: When all the open source and developer moaning is abstracted away, Maemo is still a pleasant piece of software to use, as a plain user13:46
LinuxCodewoah!13:47
RST38hlcuk: Makes a decent PDA13:47
lcukyes indeed, makes a decent house pooter13:47

RST38hwazd: All Apple has to do is add nother bunch of "toolkits" for the tablet. They have got so many APIs by now that adding a few more won't make a difference18:13
wazdRST38h: you think it will be ARM?18:13
*** Meizirkki has joined #maemo18:15
RST38hwazd: Either ARM or Atom18:15
RST38hwazd: My guess is that they will be very inclined to use Atom18:15
wazdIn fact it's simple marketing, even if it will be sold for $400 under the contract, it wont be such a mass device as an iPhone -> much much less developers. So it's really bad idea to make brand new platform without the software18:16
wazdAnd I really doubt that iTablet will appear in near future after all. Too blurry niche18:18
RST38hwazd: Neither you nor I know18:19
RST38hwazd: I can comment a little bit on the engineering side, knowing how this stuff is designed, but their marketing strategy is a complete mistery18:19
wazdcapacitive screen is awful for handwritting input. If they will add magnet layer from WACOM for designers and stuff - this thing will cost like a bentley18:19
RST38hYou do not even know if it will do handwriting18:20

RST38hNotice how Apple *never* follows the same marketing strategy as the other guys18:20
RST38hSo we have no idea how they are gonna position the iTablet18:20
wazdRST38h: I think it's one of the main tablet features - to note something quickly18:20
RST38hRumors say that it is going to be "close and personal" iTunes video player18:21
RST38hwazd: To you but not necessarily to apple18:21
wazdRST38h: too expensive for such a toy18:21

RST38hwazd: BTW, I am pretty sure those metrosexual apple fans will swallow anything up to $60018:22

wert613*gasps at the thought*21:27
Macerwell. i think the problem with mer is that it is trying to be cross platformed21:27
Macerinstead of focusing on one piece of hardware.. which is good i suppose.. but... :)21:27
qwerty12_N810Macer: parted and cfdisk are in extras-devel.21:27
StskeepsMacer: bullshit. most of the hw has problems cos we can't preinstall it into a image due to legal issues.21:28
Stskeepsfor the stuff we do have access to, it works pretty well21:28
rkirtiMacer: thats the whole point and benefit of Mer - being cross-paltformed21:28
rkirtis/paltformed/platformed21:29
MacerStskeeps: and you will constantly run into those problems on every new piece of hardware you wish to support21:29
Macerso now the devs are like spokes. where you are moving very limited resources into getting one thing to work on one piece of hardware while other developers work on other things :)21:30
Stskeepsnow, you're misunderstanding some things.21:30
Macerit is a very left handed methodology21:30
Macerinstead of one thing at a time you are spreading resources to solve multiple problems with less resources than are available to do so21:31
Stskeepsfirst off, the UI code, APIs, and everything, is by definition cross-platform. it'll view and act in same way everywhere. the stuff we've been given will act like that everywhere, no matter the hardware21:31
Stskeepssecond, the juicy stuff like network management, bluetooth, input methods, we've had to work our asses off getting to work, as we can't have it.21:32
Macercan't have it?21:32
Stskeepsyes, it's closed source and we don't have the fremantle ones.21:32
Macerah!21:32
Macerok :)21:32
Macerand using closed source premade bins doesn't work?21:33
Stskeepswe don't have them, and the ones we have is built for ARMv721:33
Macerwow that sucks21:33
Macerwhy are they closed?21:33
Macer:) if you don't mind my asking21:34
Stskeepsnow, let me return to what we're actually doing, because I want to knock this discussion to the ground once and for all.21:34
* Macer hides under a rock21:34
GeneralAntillesMacer, differentiation.21:35
GeneralAntillesicd2 pretty much totally kick's network-manager's ass.21:35
Stskeepswe have a mission to go ahead and reconstruct Maemo. we have to remake a shitload of stuff - they're closed, differentation, and fix many broken packages.21:35
Stskeepsit's not a fremantle backport as such, if it was, we could spend 9 months on it with project dying 3 months after21:35
Maceri still don't understand why they would have it closed off21:36
StskeepsMacer: it's very bloody simple - being ahead21:36
Stskeepsand i don't blame them for this21:36
javispedrothat's unfortunately true. most people who want backports tend to use them as "trials", then decide the next device is good for them.21:36
Stskeepswhat we are doing with Mer is giving you a very powerful OS, development environment and putting it in the hands of the community21:37
Stskeepsit's a bloody hard process we've done for soon a year now21:37
Stskeepsbut it's been worth it. we can do really really neat things.21:37
MacerStskeeps: so the main goal is a real open OS for portables?21:37
Macerinstead of the psuedo open stuff?21:37
Macerwith closed network and bt managers?21:37
Maceryou're going to have to write your own license :)21:38
Stskeepswe want to have a platform that's fully open, but we do respect there might be added bonus's (apps, codecs, etc) on top of the open system21:38
Stskeepsthe problem with Maemo was that the 80% open source are very difficult to have working properly and user friendly without the remaining 20%21:38
javispedrobtw Stskeeps, do you also think icd2 kicks NetworkManager ass?21:39
Macerwow that sucks :)21:39
javispedroor are fine with NM?21:39
Stskeepsjavispedro: if connman gets sane i wouldn't mind it.21:39
MacerStskeeps: sounds like things are only going to get worse if you decide to take a qt route with it21:39
StskeepsMacer: but what you're seeing around you is the hard work of the community for a year, and something that will last long after the N810 is dead21:39
javispedrowhat I mean is that I built an icd2 stub when testing my wpa_supp library (and to do some more -- maybe borderline legal-- things you imagine)21:40
javispedrocould expand it21:40
StskeepsMacer: we could have done a fremantle backport and be done with it, and practically have wasted our time21:40
StskeepsMer is a fresh new approach to the Maemo platform.21:40
Stskeepsand while the UI isn't perfect, mostly because we don't have friggen open source icons for many things, the foundation is bloody solid21:41
Macerare you not allowed to use hildon also?21:41
Stskeepsof course, but fremantle icons are closed source21:41
Maceroh wtf :)21:42
Stskeepseven translation strings21:42
Macerthat totally sucks21:42
Stskeepsso, once we're done, we have a OS that's really in the hands of the community21:42
Stskeepsand Nokia has been helpful with a lot of things.21:42
Macerwell. i guess some poor guy was stuck in a room making icons all day21:42
Stskeepsbut i get really pissed off when people say Mer is shit. my usual answer is "so what did you do to help it along the way?" - I can't ask that with you obviously.21:43
qwerty12_N810Stskeeps: on that note: do HildonFileChoosers still look bad compared to the GTK+ one? It'd be nice if "Hildon = True" could finally be set in bluetooth-sendto. ;)21:43
MacerStskeeps: it is hard to help test it when you can't really do the things you need to do in order to do so21:43
Macerlike wifi tethering on an adhoc phone21:43
Macer;)21:43
Stskeepsadhoc phone is a problem with NetworkManager21:44
Stskeepslook up the ubuntu bugs for it21:44

ShadowJKon the other hand, my e75 has been burning a hole in my pocket on bluetooth too, except when they conspired and switched roles so that n810 began burning hole insteaed21:44

javispedrointel described the NM situation fine: http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/files/2009/06/slide5.png21:45
Stskeepsit's based on ubuntu!21:45
Maceri know :)21:45
Stskeepswe inherit all the problems with it21:45
Macerbut to be "based on" and to "be" .... mer loses its identity21:45
Maceris it maemo.... ubuntu.. or its own thing?21:45
Macerto tell a user simply "check ubuntu's forums out"21:45
Stskeepsdoes it matter what it is? it's the power of ubuntu with the mobile ability of maemo21:46
Stskeepsand that's what makes it powerful for developers, hackers and users21:46
MacerStskeeps: but if someone has a problem with maemo.. they ask it in relation to maemo even though it is based on debian21:46
javispedroMacer, I'm not a user ;)21:46
Stskeepssure, and if someone has a problem with GTK we send it upstream21:46
Macerit is rare someone says "check debian's forums"21:47
Stskeepsthere's no black and white in this matter21:47

ShadowJKeverything has an upstream :)21:47

* javispedro wonders what Nokia has in store for icd.21:48
wert613Augmenting what Stskeeps?21:48
Stskeepsbut compared to Maemo, development for Maemo, we're lightyears ahead.21:48
Stskeepsin the areas we wanted to try and see if we could improve21:48
MacerStskeeps: yes i suppose that is true in regard to a portable device OS21:48
MacerStskeeps: i'd have loved to see you pick up the qtablet development though21:49
Macerinstead of sticking with a gtk based ui for mer21:49
Stskeepswe are going to go the Qt way, but the stars have to change a bit.21:49
Macerand once the hardware issues are ironed out i'm sure it will be a wonderful OS21:49

lcukbut theres the language barrier and the fact its always a compromise and you have to worry about 4 os's21:51
Macerit has a better look and feel than the gtk based stuff21:52
lcukit shouldnt have, they both use native widgets i believe21:52
lcuklook maybe21:52
StskeepsMacer: i'm not a gtk fan for what it's worth - the majority of work done in Mer is not what people see when they touch the display.21:52
lcukbut thats themability21:52
Stskeepsbut it's what makes it possible to have the thing above21:52
Macerlcuk: that's what a lot of people say21:52
Stskeepswe have 166 packages, each carefully fixed, ported, developed if need be21:53
Macerbut for some reason it just looks and feels different21:53
lcukmacer, whilst there is great power with qt, you still need to be very careful in what you use or your almighty powerful app runs and feels like shit21:53
