ShadowJK | it only needs a tun/tap driver | 00:00 |
Macer | oh yeah | 00:01 |
Macer | back in maemo4 | 00:01 |
ShadowJK | and uh, libc | 00:01 |
Macer | so | 00:01 |
Macer | is there a device that isnt marketed as an "internet tablet" | 00:01 |
Macer | that is the same size as the n8x0? | 00:02 |
ShadowJK | there are "multimedia computers" too ;p | 00:02 |
ShadowJK | they're smaller | 00:02 |
Macer | heh | 00:02 |

ShadowJK | and they can print, but the screens are useless for actually editing anything ;) | 00:02 |
Macer | slonopotamus: gave up on gentoo | 00:03 |
Macer | cant easily get the qwerty working | 00:03 |
Macer | in X | 00:03 |
AStorm | ... | 00:05 |
AStorm | because you didn't copy the proper special keymaps | 00:05 |
AStorm | really, there's a whole bunch of platform stuff that has to be added | 00:05 |
*** berni42 has joined #maemo | 00:06 | |
Macer | AStorm: gentoo doesnt have the kernel or X patch for fn key use | 00:07 |
Macer | so i would have to track one down | 00:07 |
Macer | or come up with an oddball keymap | 00:07 |
Macer | either way | 00:08 |
Macer | fuck it | 00:08 |
Macer | not worth working on this piece of shit anymore, i will just suck it up and carry a netbook or my touch book when i get i | 00:08 |
Macer | it | 00:09 |
AStorm | ... | 00:09 |
AStorm | there's no need for X patch | 00:09 |
Macer | uhm | 00:09 |
AStorm | just the keymaps | 00:09 |
*** pdz has quit IRC | 00:09 | |
AStorm | the usual Nokia ones | 00:09 |
Macer | i tried that | 00:09 |
AStorm | setxkbmap messes up the modifiers | 00:10 |
Macer | doesnt work because gentoo cant use the fn key | 00:10 |
AStorm | have to add them manually | 00:10 |
AStorm | sure it can | 00:10 |
Macer | i did | 00:10 |
AStorm | it's seen by xev | 00:10 |
Macer | used xmodmap | 00:10 |
AStorm | but is not bound to a modifier | 00:10 |
AStorm | the key id is different than in Nokia keymaps | 00:11 |

* lcuk does a lardman | 02:01 | |
lardman | you off then? :p | 02:01 |
lardman | ;) | 02:01 |
lardman | nope, not quick enough! :D | 02:02 |
lcuk | heh | 02:02 |
lcuk | have you had a nice lazy week? | 02:02 |
lardman | yeah, not too bad, playing Far Cry2, getting up late, going to bed late, ideal :) | 02:03 |
*** L0cMini9 has quit IRC | 02:03 | |
lardman | getting a bit bored of the computer now though, think I should crack on with the barcode stuff | 02:03 |
lcuk | sounds good | 02:03 |
lardman | esp after seeing a datamatrix barcode for the url to pay my roadtax today :) | 02:03 |
lcuk | bastards | 02:03 |
lardman | yeah, another couple of hundred quid gone | 02:04 |
lardman | at least it's not gone up too much, only a tenner or so | 02:04 |
lcuk | yeah, that part i dont mind | 02:04 |
lcuk | its showing you info you cannot read ;) | 02:04 |
lcuk | and especially when they have to say "goto url by zapping this" | 02:05 |
lardman | well would be cool to scan it and save my typing the url in :) | 02:05 |
lcuk | yeah | 02:05 |
lardman | esp if I could do char recog and get it to type the id number in too :) | 02:05 |
lcuk | yeah, even bigger shame we know no1 with even remotely that kind of experience | 02:06 |
lardman | I'm learning | 02:06 |
lardman | have to do some of that sort of stuff for work atm | 02:06 |
lardman | though it doesn't work too well my correlation method | 02:06 |
lcuk | we are all learning :) | 02:06 |
lardman | I may have to buy a book on the subject | 02:07 |
lardman | give me something to read as the nights close in | 02:07 |
*** stv01 has joined #maemo | 02:07 | |
lcuk | indeed | 02:07 |
divide_by_zero | cant we throw everything at the handwritting recognition program? :) | 02:07 |
lardman | is there an api? | 02:08 |
divide_by_zero | dunno | 02:08 |
lcuk | thats stroke based | 02:08 |
lardman | +1 | 02:08 |
lcuk | and from my experiments crap | 02:08 |
divide_by_zero | but there | 02:08 |
*** b-man16 has quit IRC | 02:08 | |
* lcuk writes t and l similar | 02:08 | |
*** brolin_ has joined #maemo | 02:08 | |
lcuk | or rather, it thinks all my t's are ls | 02:08 |
lcuk | and i cant change em | 02:08 |
divide_by_zero | but there's a couple of very nice free ocr programs out there... | 02:09 |
lcuk | yes | 02:09 |
lcuk | and thats where lardman could look | 02:09 |
lardman | ah, but the fun is in learning about it by trying yourself :) | 02:09 |
*** stv01 has left #maemo | 02:09 | |
lardman | though next week I will look at how one's supposed to do OCR and implement something that defo works | 02:10 |
lardman | in MATLAB though, not tablet based | 02:10 |
lcuk | lardman, if you think - the ocr stuff was created on computers much less than ours :P | 02:10 |
lcuk | they didnt have matlab | 02:10 |
lardman | sure, I just need to do my data processing in MATLAB | 02:11 |
divide_by_zero | i think neural networks are still one of the best ways to make the final classification... | 02:11 |
lcuk | yeah | 02:11 |
lcuk | easier to play there | 02:11 |
lardman | urgh | 02:11 |
lardman | I'm not fond, not analytical enough for me | 02:11 |
lcuk | eugh @ neural nets | 02:11 |
lardman | :) | 02:11 |
lardman | but horses for courses and all that :) | 02:12 |
divide_by_zero | cmon, it's a classic!... :) | 02:12 |
lcuk | yeah, a set of related weight particles able to communicate and group themselves together and interact in a shared experience will never work | 02:12 |
lcuk | ;) | 02:12 |
lardman | well it does, but you can never know how... :) | 02:13 |
lcuk | visual nets are nicer | 02:13 |
*** florian has quit IRC | 02:13 | |
lcuk | and understandable | 02:13 |
lcuk | you can see the propogation of information | 02:13 |
lardman | sod nets, nice equations are good | 02:13 |
divide_by_zero | if you make a nice program to vectorize the characters maybe you can try bayesian decision trees, more analytical and sound... | 02:14 |
lcuk | play with acceleration and gravity and forces and stuff then :P | 02:14 |
lcuk | divide_by_zero, everything i write on my tablet is vectorized | 02:14 |
lardman | divide_by_zero: the orientation is always the same, but the letters are noisy, am trying correlation in the first instance | 02:14 |
lcuk | is this the 100k vid still? | 02:15 |
lardman | yeah | 02:15 |
lcuk | :D cool | 02:15 |
* lcuk is blown away by framecount | 02:15 | |
lardman | sort of worked when I wrote it the other day, every few frames would fail though | 02:15 |
lardman | so can either average some frames to remove noise, or write a routine to intelligently handle the assumed frequency | 02:15 |
lardman | am trying on smaller files to begin with though! | 02:16 |
divide_by_zero | you are recognizing printed letters, with a training set?... correlation is a good start indeed... | 02:16 |
lcuk | yeah | 02:16 |
lardman | and in truth probably won't need that much anyway | 02:16 |
*** __t1 has joined #maemo | 02:17 | |

*** brolin_ has quit IRC | 02:17 | |

lcuk | it will be satisfying to know you did it all | 02:17 |
*** padovan is now known as padovan[AWAY] | 02:17 | |
lardman | more satisfying to get the data processed and move on to something else! :) | 02:17 |
lardman | well sort of :D | 02:18 |
lcuk | :) i totally understand that | 02:18 |
divide_by_zero | your problem is the image noise? and you can take many frames? i did a program to median-filter multiple images on the n800 just the other day! :) | 02:19 |
lardman | divide_by_zero: I don't know beforehand how many frames are at the same freq (and therefore have the same text written in the corner) | 02:19 |
lardman | but yeah, will correlate the frames to work out which ones are the same, then integrate them, then work out the text | 02:20 |
lardman | or something like that anyway :) | 02:20 |
divide_by_zero | well, it seems the ocr is the least of your problems then!... ;) | 02:20 |

Stskeeps | n810 is horrible horrible compared to it | 10:56 |
LiraNuna | I like the N810's keyboard | 10:56 |
Stskeeps | it's much more tactile and soft to use | 10:56 |
LiraNuna | my only complaint about it (N810's) is there's no pipe key | 10:56 |
Stskeeps | remap it, it's a linux machine | 10:56 |
Stskeeps | :P | 10:56 |
LiraNuna | of course I did | 10:56 |
LiraNuna | just sayin' too bad it's not default | 10:56 |
Stskeeps | euro on my keybard seems like a good keyboard | 10:57 |
Stskeeps | err | 10:57 |
Stskeeps | choice for replacement | 10:57 |
LiraNuna | I changed the Yen | 10:57 |
LiraNuna | Stskeeps, they also removed the 5way nav | 10:57 |
Stskeeps | or that one | 10:57 |
Stskeeps | LiraNuna: dpad you mean | 10:57 |
LiraNuna | stucked it in the corner | 10:57 |
Stskeeps | LiraNuna: i'm not entirely sure what the thing on the side is tbh | 10:58 |
Stskeeps | there's a weird thingie there | 10:58 |
LiraNuna | 'there' ? | 10:58 |
LiraNuna | good thing though: the screen is flat | 10:59 |
LiraNuna | i.e no sunken screen | 10:59 |
Stskeeps | hm, ok, i can't find the pics now :P | 10:59 |
LiraNuna | http://www.mobile-review.com/review/image/nokia/rx51-n900/pic12.jpg | 11:00 |
Stskeeps | either way there's a weird sensor on the side | 11:00 |
* LiraNuna sees nothing special | 11:00 | |
LiraNuna | I see a status light, front facing camera, light sensor | 11:00 |
LiraNuna | http://www.mobile-review.com/review/image/nokia/rx51-n900/scr/scr13.jpg | 11:01 |
LiraNuna | TV OUT!? | 11:01 |
chx | Stskeeps: you have an RX51? | 11:02 |
LiraNuna | I was about to ask, how do you know about the keyboard | 11:03 |
LiraNuna | http://www.mobile-review.com/review/image/nokia/rx51-n900/scr/scr39.jpg <-- core-dumps folder :D | 11:03 |
Stskeeps | chx: no, but we tried similar keyboards in copenhagen on the developer units | 11:03 |
Stskeeps | http://www.mobile-review.com/review/image/nokia/rx51-n900/pic21.jpg | 11:03 |
chx | I am fairly satisfied with the N810 | 11:03 |
Stskeeps | leftmost thing | 11:03 |
chx | it's current price makes it very sweet | 11:03 |
LiraNuna | Stskeeps, looks like IR | 11:04 |
*** lcuk has joined #maemo | 11:04 | |
chx | it will be at least a year before I even look at seriously at the RX-51 | 11:04 |
Stskeeps | yeah, or one of those dpad like things for navigation | 11:04 |
chx | it will cost a fortune in the beginning. | 11:04 |
LiraNuna | Stskeeps, but it's on the top | 11:04 |
Stskeeps | LiraNuna: yeah, so? it isn't a bad place to move about a finger | 11:04 |
LiraNuna | it looks flat too | 11:04 |
Stskeeps | i have no idea though. | 11:05 |
chx | also I just bought a Lenovo T400s , that fairly depleted my gadget budget for a long time :) | 11:05 |
chx | btw is there a case from a material similiar the zeroshock sleeves for the N810? | 11:06 |
chx | those sleeves take quite a beating. | 11:06 |
Jaffa | Morning, all | 11:06 |
Stskeeps | morning jaffa | 11:07 |
chx | its , i believe, dense memory foam. | 11:07 |
* Jaffa can't wait for RX-51 now | 11:08 | |
chx | google is my friend isnt it :P | 11:08 |
chx | http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-Double-Memory-Pouch-Nintendo/dp/B001U28XBK <= anyone tried that? | 11:08 |
LiraNuna | DS is larger than N810 | 11:09 |
LiraNuna | let me compare physical size I have both | 11:09 |
LiraNuna | DS lite is ~1.5cm wider | 11:09 |
keesj | CIR would be nice | 11:10 |
*** bilboed-tp has joined #maemo | 11:11 | |
keesj | LiraNuna: the fun thing in http://www.mobile-review.com/review/image/nokia/rx51-n900/scr/scr39.jpg is that it states Nokia-NXX and not Nokia-NXXX | 11:12 |
LiraNuna | RXXX you mean? | 11:12 |
LiraNuna | oh my bad - excuse me it's late | 11:13 |
chx | keesj: it will be called N00 :D | 11:13 |

chx | lcuk: the N810 does not have a magnesium alloy roll cage alas. | 11:19 |
lcuk | ^ chx even lol | 11:20 |
chx | also note that right now I have a Panasonic Y5 | 11:20 |
chx | dont tell me what a rock solid laptop is :P | 11:20 |
lcuk | have you put the accelerometer to use in your thinkpad? | 11:20 |
* lcuk loves neverball | 11:20 | |
chx | I do not have the T400s yet. | 11:20 |
chx | I ordered it last week and was shipped yesterday or so Lenovo claims | 11:21 |
chx | however, they say it takes 3-4 business days to come up with a tracking number | 11:21 |
chx | wtf? | 11:21 |
*** Meizirkki has joined #maemo | 11:21 | |
lcuk | yeah, without cases, they just lobbed them bare into the back of a container | 11:21 |
chx | heh | 11:21 |
lcuk | hiya Meizirkki \o | 11:21 |
chx | Panasonic could do that with the full toughbooks | 11:21 |
chx | likely even with these business rugged laptops | 11:22 |
lcuk | yeah | 11:22 |
lcuk | those toughbooks really are impressive | 11:22 |
chx | I like my gadgets living up the challenge. | 11:22 |
lcuk | chuck norris uses em | 11:22 |
chx | Yeah this Y5 survived the last two years with me | 11:22 |
chx | that's not a small feat. | 11:22 |
chx | poor thing. | 11:22 |
keesj | this new hardware will be even more fun. | 11:22 |
chx | and only the DVD is broken and even that's only just a very little ... unstable. sometimes it does not read discs, see. | 11:23 |
chx | keesj: yeah but... the price :( | 11:23 |
chx | keesj: making it a phone made it hideously expensive. :( | 11:23 |
lcuk | yeah keesj, small bundle of what the n810 shouldv been (a REAL upgrade on the 800) | 11:23 |
chx | yeah.... | 11:24 |
lcuk | chx, and it also made it better | 11:24 |
chx | lcuk: Well, yeah | 11:24 |
lcuk | 1 device instead of 2 | 11:24 |
lcuk | its like head and shoulders :) | 11:24 |
keesj | lcuk: I don't know about tha't it's definitly different that's for sure | 11:24 |
chx | lcuk: that's not necessarily better actually | 11:24 |
*** sven-tek has quit IRC | 11:24 | |
lcuk | keesj, technologically better | 11:24 |
chx | lcuk: because... see, when i want to make a call, i want a small device. that's my phone. when i want to ssh somewhere i want a big screen and big keyboard. | 11:24 |
lcuk | chx, we humans have macro vision, if we want to make something bigger, we just move it slightly closer to eye | 11:25 |
keesj | lcuk: I need to see/feel it first. I mean battery life is a very important thing. | 11:25 |
lcuk | in copenhagen when we were muckin around the size difference was barely perceptble | 11:25 |

Anidel | the town of Fremantle of course! | 13:37 |
lcuk | http://telstra.com/ServiceStatus/Default.asp should tell you of any difficulties then :P | 13:38 |
lcuk | as for scratchbox, there are some things relating to dns | 13:38 |
lcuk | even on older sdk's i assume the problem will be similar | 13:39 |
qwerty12_N810 | I have Transmission working in the Fremantle SDK - all it needed was me changing /scratchbox/etc/resolv.conf and the target's /etc/resolv.conf from 127.0.0.1 | 13:39 |
lcuk | http://www.mail-archive.com/scratchbox-users@lists.scratchbox.org/msg01037.html | 13:39 |

lcuk | im happy making my own new stuff | 14:05 |
lcuk | but yeah, it would be good | 14:06 |
lcuk | theres been similar games in the past - but having it using the accelerometer makes it great - we have similar games for the wii | 14:06 |
lcuk | theres a great one for the wiifit actually | 14:06 |
konttori | problem is nb is written in ogl 1.x. | 14:06 |
lcuk | the principle is simple tho | 14:07 |
lcuk | just start with a simple ball and surface and move on from there | 14:07 |
konttori | and device has ogles. 2.0 code of ogl is pretty compatible with similar es version | 14:07 |
lcuk | ^^^ | 14:07 |

konttori | http://www.nevercorner.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1544 | 14:08 |
lcuk | did you see the liqflow thing on your device - does it work correctly with hardware accelerometer - im working soley from my x41 and think the modelling is right | 14:08 |
konttori | didnt test yet | 14:09 |
lcuk | its nice and fast on my 810 | 14:09 |
lcuk | but obviously, theres no accel | 14:09 |
* lcuk loves particle fields | 14:09 | |

Anidel | I hoped at least the packaging files in debian/ worked fine either in Maemo 4 and Fremantle..but looks like it's not the case | 14:59 |
javispedro | ShadowJK, it's not noticeable while swapping out (suspect it's a combination of slow sd writes and the fact its done on the background ;) ) | 14:59 |
Anidel | The app is there but it won't start because hd-app-mgr can't find service com.nokia.xournal | 14:59 |
Anidel | grrrrr | 14:59 |
lcuk | Anidel, packaging is the worst part | 14:59 |
javispedro | ah I don't know why the ramzswap do not implement compressed swapping to the backend device | 14:59 |
javispedro | combined with this it would rule the world. | 15:00 |
Anidel | lcuk: it sucks | 15:00 |
lcuk | Anidel, you got the /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.maemo.xournal.service file in place | 15:00 |
lcuk | use others in that folder as a template for yours if not | 15:01 |
Anidel | it's there... | 15:01 |
*** guysoft422 has quit IRC | 15:01 | |
javispedro | also, I at least was able to confuse dbus by editing that file in place, requiring a restart | 15:01 |
Anidel | I'll change it to org.maemo instead of the old com.nokia, but it shouldn't be the problem | 15:01 |
*** slonopotamus has quit IRC | 15:01 | |
ShadowJK | javispedro, the biggest performance gain would come from changing the swap allocation scheme completely :) | 15:02 |
lcuk | Anidel, thats probably not important, i forgot to change that - it was just the path from mine | 15:02 |
lcuk | and i changed the name for your package :P | 15:02 |
ShadowJK | Harddrive: random writes are slow, random reads are slow. SD: random writes are superslow and stall everything else, random reads are fast-ish | 15:03 |
Anidel | what do you mean you changed the name of my package? | 15:03 |
eichi | hello guys | 15:03 |
ShadowJK | linux was only ever written with the first scenario in mind | 15:03 |
eichi | my maemo died completely, doesnt boot anymore...what can i do beside of reflashing? | 15:03 |
Stskeeps | do you have bootmenu installed with USBnet emergency telnetd? | 15:04 |
lcuk | Anidel, i just grabbed the filename and path from liqbase_playground and changed it to say xournal, but forgot to change the org.maemo one. nothin major lol | 15:04 |
Anidel | oh you mean here, okay :) | 15:04 |
lcuk | yeah | 15:05 |
Anidel | lcuk: I should be able to run it simply executing the command, right? uhm.. it fails in initializing osso | 15:05 |

qwerty12_N810 | Anidel: run-standalone.sh <command> | 15:06 |

Anidel | but I got the issue now :) | 15:06 |
Anidel | is still /home/user on the Fremantle Device? | 15:07 |
* lcuk smiles. liblo is on its way | 15:07 | |
Anidel | I really should find a different path for those files... | 15:07 |
lcuk | yeah, but you should really use proper homepath checking | 15:07 |
lcuk | to save folks later when its ported to mer :) | 15:07 |
Anidel | true :) | 15:07 |
lcuk | char *envhome = getenv("HOME"); | 15:08 |
lcuk | obviously check it for failing, and either bailout, or just use /home/user and pray ;) | 15:08 |
eichi | Stskeeps, yes i have bootmenu with the telnet function | 15:09 |

Anidel | which one you guys referring to? | 15:28 |
lcuk | dialog boxes having no way to cancel (sts is right, it was the actual cancel button that isnt there) | 15:28 |
Anidel | who needs cancel? :D | 15:29 |
qwerty12_N810 | Tap outside a dialog box to cancel :) | 15:29 |
Anidel | yeah I know.. but before I'll get to that.. there's a lot else to do :/ | 15:29 |
Anidel | redesign the toolbar for example.. icons are way bigger now and way less icons would fit.. | 15:30 |
Anidel | I think I need something else... | 15:30 |

Anidel | what about ONE single button in the tool bar that when pressed show a screen fulls of controls. As soon as you choose your action, it disappears showing the canvas... | 15:34 |
Anidel | it means two taps for each action.. I can pack 2/3 of the most used on the toolbar + this "Show All" button.. | 15:35 |
Anidel | going from 16 buttons down to 3 :) | 15:35 |
Anidel | right now I can see only 9-10 fit on the new Fremantle toolbar.. uhm | 15:36 |
*** zap has joined #maemo | 15:36 | |
Anidel | also, am I supposed to do something for the scrollbars? they don't look finger friendly at all | 15:36 |
lcuk | if you can realistically expect the user to have a stylus whilst using your app - is there no way to keep your toolbar small? | 15:36 |
*** MrGoose has joined #maemo | 15:37 | |
Anidel | well it's Xournal.. I don't expect people to write with their finger! | 15:37 |
lcuk | you can make the navigation elements finger friendly and have improved menus | 15:37 |
*** CVirus has left #maemo | 15:37 | |
lcuk | but you dont need to do it everywhere really | 15:37 |
*** veiz has joined #maemo | 15:38 | |
Anidel | I was thinking at overlay the actions over the canvas.. kind of Edit Canvas mode + Action Selection mode | 15:38 |
qwerty12_N810 | Anidel: preferred option AFAIK is kinetic (http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/beta/hildon/HildonPannableArea.html) or just use the thumb scrollbar (http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/beta/hildon/hildon-Helper-Functions.html#hildon-helper-set-thumb-scrollbar) | 15:38 |
Anidel | if I detect a thumb press on the canvas, I'll show the actions | 15:38 |
lcuk | major surgery though, it might be more practical in a timescale to just alter the toolicon size 9if thats possible) | 15:38 |
Anidel | I hate kinetic :) | 15:39 |
Anidel | but yeah for the Canvas I'll use it | 15:39 |
lcuk | hes right for moving around an open document | 15:39 |
*** eichi has quit IRC | 15:39 | |
lcuk | but when you are scribbling and not wanting kinetic scrollbars are more practical | 15:39 |
*** L0cMini9 has quit IRC | 15:39 | |
*** MrGoose has quit IRC | 15:40 | |
*** eichi has joined #maemo | 15:40 | |
Anidel | if Fremantle has a easier way to detect thumb pressure from stylus one.. I'll be fine... | 15:40 |
lcuk | why? | 15:40 |
Anidel | stylus scribbles, finger pans | 15:40 |
* lcuk uses stylus to navigate | 15:40 | |
lcuk | i dont like finger marks | 15:40 |
Anidel | I mean on the canvas, not the menus | 15:40 |
lcuk | oh cripes no | 15:41 |
lcuk | you would piss off the user | 15:41 |
*** hannesw has joined #maemo | 15:41 | |
lcuk | "why wont this thing just move" | 15:41 |
lcuk | as the scribble line goes up the page | 15:41 |
Anidel | ? wait... | 15:41 |
lcuk | use the mic and listen for the rage | 15:41 |
lcuk | and when detected, change mode | 15:41 |
*** eichi has quit IRC | 15:41 | |
Anidel | If I start scribbling with the stylus and go up the page and I want to continue up.. Xournal currently doesn't do that | 15:41 |
Anidel | (ehehe) | 15:42 |
lcuk | thats ok | 15:42 |
Anidel | that can be done (automatically pan in scribbling mode) | 15:42 |
Anidel | but if I raise the pen | 15:42 |
lcuk | if you start autoscrolling when scribbling its bad | 15:42 |
* lcuk has experience | 15:42 | |
Anidel | and then use the thumb on the canvas.. I'll suppose the user wants to pan, not scribble with the thumb | 15:42 |
RST38h | <yawn> | 15:43 |
Anidel | lcuk: indeed, so why you told before "why won't this think just move"? | 15:43 |
Anidel | I am not sure I explained my intentions well :) | 15:43 |
lcuk | no, its because you are trying to autodetect intent from the stroke itself | 15:43 |
lcuk | you have a drawing tool selected, so let them draw | 15:43 |
lcuk | if they select move/pan mode then pan | 15:43 |
lcuk | dont try to second guess | 15:44 |
Anidel | I'll put in a conf selector.. one can choose which mode he likes more | 15:44 |
Anidel | I like alternatives :) I'm not Steve :p | 15:44 |
lcuk | *shrug* | 15:45 |
lcuk | i just think the model adobe have which is tried and tested by millions works | 15:45 |
Anidel | the screen real estate is not that much.. people needs to pan a lot... having to press a button twice to move the canvas, for me, is frustrating.. but I'll let the user choose | 15:45 |
lcuk | (acrobat has the hand pan tool and a different one for selection | 15:45 |
Anidel | that's on a PC | 15:45 |
lcuk | yeah - i have it on my tabletpc | 15:46 |
Anidel | but they have keyboard shortcuts | 15:46 |
Anidel | tabletpc users are a minority.. those apps are not designed with a touchscreen in mind | 15:46 |
Anidel | anyway there's no issue :) the user chooses and we're all happy | 15:47 |
lcuk | acrobat is - its the only desktop app i know that does scrolling when main body is grabbed | 15:47 |
Anidel | how you grab it? | 15:47 |
lcuk | left mouse click / pen down | 15:47 |
Anidel | but does it have scribbling? can you write on the PDF with your pen? | 15:47 |
lcuk | no, it doesnt do draw over, but it has a text selection mode | 15:48 |
Anidel | exactly... | 15:48 |
lcuk | which is equivilent to editing | 15:48 |
Anidel | there it's easy for them | 15:48 |
lcuk | ie if in selection mode its not moving | 15:48 |
Anidel | wait.. on a PDF you usually pan around to read it.. | 15:48 |
lcuk | yeah | 15:48 |
Anidel | don't select that often.. | 15:48 |
Anidel | so it makes sense | 15:49 |
lcuk | or you enter selection mode to do stuff | 15:49 |
*** eichi has joined #maemo | 15:49 | |
Anidel | on the tablet is different.. user has to scribble AND pan most of the time | 15:49 |
Anidel | having a way to reduce clicking on a button, helps... if it doesn't, switch back to "old style" mode | 15:49 |
* lcuk :) | 15:50 | |
Anidel | but this my way of handling it, works only if Fremantle does a good job in detecting what object is touching the screen: the pen or the finger | 15:50 |
Anidel | in Diablo the pressure was 0-.5 for the stylus .5-1 for the finger.. and it was quite reliable | 15:51 |
lcuk | yeah anidel i know how sensitive everything is and hope you get it working | 15:52 |
lcuk | is the "undo" button within easy reach? | 15:52 |
Anidel | if not, it's just a config settings away | 15:52 |
Anidel | it has to.. | 15:52 |
lcuk | good | 15:53 |

* javispedro is going to become unsane | 16:30 | |
javispedro | so, my idea to optimize a loop reading lots of globals variables is to make multiple versions of it | 16:30 |
javispedro | one for each possible set of global variable values. | 16:30 |
javispedro | up so far there are already 6 versions but plan to remove yet another global var access, so that'll make it 12 versions... | 16:31 |
Corsac | is that you idea of optimzation? | 16:32 |
Corsac | :) | 16:32 |
javispedro | when it spends most of the time in lrdb instructions, I guess so... | 16:32 |
javispedro | *ldrb. | 16:32 |
*** radic_ has joined #maemo | 16:33 | |
*** etrunko has joined #maemo | 16:34 | |
lcuk | javispedro, its easier to factor out the global lookups than it is to create duplicates like that which will become a nightmare | 16:35 |
lcuk | obviously, having optimized variations is good sometimes tho ;) | 16:35 |
*** radic_ has quit IRC | 16:36 | |
javispedro | e.g. it loads a global variable (repeating mode) and switches behaviour depending on it in the middle of the innermost loop, even though that value won't change for the whole program lifetime. | 16:36 |
*** veiz has quit IRC | 16:37 | |
pupnik | isn't there some meta you could pass to compiler to tell it to factor-out variable x,y,z into multiple function versions func_xyz_() | 16:38 |
javispedro | so i just do: if (global_var == 1) { DO_LOOP(1) } else { DO_LOOP(0) } this way there's only one lookup entering the outermost loop, | 16:38 |
pupnik | nm | 16:38 |
pupnik | yep | 16:38 |
*** etrunko_ has joined #maemo | 16:38 | |
javispedro | and since I give the compiler the right, const value, it then optimizes if (0)'s away. | 16:38 |
javispedro | (in each branch) | 16:38 |
pupnik | man, need 'wasd' also - badly | 16:38 |
*** blassey1 has quit IRC | 16:39 | |
pupnik | so essentially you're trying to reduce the 'state information' required to emulate the PPU | 16:39 |
javispedro | the problem is that it's starting to become a rather big if, so I really need that "meta" you're descripting above, pupnik :) | 16:39 |
javispedro | correct. If I make the loop require less accesses, I assume the compiler register allocator will start doing a better job. | 16:40 |
lcuk | javispedro, i have seen implementations use a big #define template and token##pasting to achieve the resulting variations | 16:41 |
lcuk | hold on, lemme see if i can find where i saw it | 16:41 |
javispedro | the problem is that I don't know the values at compile time | 16:41 |
javispedro | but at program startup time | 16:41 |
javispedro | hm. function pointers. | 16:41 |
javispedro | na, would slow down. | 16:42 |
lcuk | http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/TinyGL/TinyGL-0.4.tar.gz | 16:43 |
lcuk | look at ztriangle.h | 16:43 |
javispedro | a great guy ^^^ | 16:43 |
javispedro | i ported that to palmos once :D | 16:43 |
lcuk | it is initialized and repeatedly called from within the ztriangle source | 16:43 |
lcuk | with different defines | 16:43 |
lcuk | slightly different than i recall it | 16:43 |
javispedro | wow | 16:44 |
lcuk | javispedro, it compiles nicely for 8x0 :) | 16:44 |
lcuk | neat trick isnt it | 16:45 |
javispedro | yep, I like it. | 16:47 |
javispedro | thanks! | 16:47 |
lcuk | :) | 16:47 |
javispedro | btw, I got around 5 glxgears fps in my PalmT|X :) | 16:48 |
javispedro | not bad considering the gl* calls were being done from m68k (so each call meant a byteswap) | 16:48 |
lcuk | yeah - much lower framebuffer size there tho | 16:49 |

pupnik | i set fs 0 and lower cpu spd for this level | 18:54 |
javispedro | I have a new idea for the non-turbo mode, using select instead of usleep | 18:54 |
javispedro | the sdl guys say it's faster | 18:54 |
pupnik | strange | 18:54 |
pupnik | did you figure out xlation from snes pallette to n800 rgb? | 18:55 |
javispedro | no idea. you see garbled colors | 18:55 |
javispedro | ? | 18:55 |
pupnik | there must be some | 18:55 |
pupnik | no | 18:55 |
javispedro | it does some brightness adjustment but that's about it | 18:56 |
pupnik | remember rst's comment on pallette->rgb->16bit? | 18:56 |
javispedro | yes; since it does that only when the palette changes I don't think there's much speed to be gained there | 18:56 |
pupnik | oh! | 18:57 |
javispedro | (e.g. the whole mode7 funcs don't do any color conversion at all) | 18:57 |
javispedro | they all handle target's (nokia) rgb565 | 18:57 |
pupnik | i thought that happened for all drawing | 18:57 |
pupnik | cool | 18:57 |
jakemaheu | For those of you that have seen the proto for the N900, are you planning on buying one? | 18:58 |
Anidel | hopefully.. I would like to hold it first, tho | 18:58 |
jakemaheu | Apparently it's smaller | 18:58 |
Anidel | I think the Nokia flagship store here in London will have it for sure | 18:58 |
jakemaheu | Lucky | 18:58 |
javispedro | pupnik, well, to tell the truth, yes, there's a color conversion, using the prefilled palette. | 18:59 |
javispedro | jakemaheu, seen the price yet? :) | 19:00 |
jakemaheu | 500 euros | 19:00 |
jakemaheu | 730 usd | 19:00 |

*** SjB has quit IRC | 19:02 | |

aol | I could say that you can pretty much convert those euros directly to USD | 19:02 |
chx | it wont take more than two years. | 19:02 |
aol | so 550$ should be close | 19:02 |

Luke-Jr | aol: sim-free? more like sim-incompatible | 19:03 |
* javispedro has the feeling that even with carl zeiss whatever it'll be still as bad as a regular phone cam. | 19:03 | |
aol | Luke-Jr: sim-free is another word for "without contract" | 19:04 |
jakemaheu | it's supposed to be able to record full-motion video at 800x480 | 19:04 |
javispedro | wierd resolution. | 19:04 |
chx | there is more to a camera than lens.... | 19:04 |
aol | unsubsidized | 19:04 |
Luke-Jr | aol: oh, you mean "sim not included", not "incapable of using sim" | 19:04 |
jakemaheu | but the lens does make a big difference | 19:04 |
zerojayPC | javispedro: Gotta disagree. | 19:04 |
javispedro | for capturing, I mean. | 19:04 |
Luke-Jr | N900 sucks anyway. | 19:04 |
jakemaheu | i have an OLD powershot a410 with epic glass | 19:05 |
jakemaheu | it's 3.0 mp, but takes amazing images | 19:05 |
Luke-Jr | I'd pay at most $250 for a N900 *today* | 19:05 |
aol | Luke-Jr: yeah.. In Europe lots more phones are sold without contract than in USA ... so you just pay the whole phone immediately, and then pay much less for the contract | 19:05 |
jakemaheu | + contract? | 19:05 |
pupnik | i need a "matrix" button for these games --- :) | 19:05 |
aol | it's hard to understand people who say iPhone is cheap as it's only $99 | 19:06 |
javispedro | matrix? ;) | 19:06 |
pupnik | slow Ãmotion | 19:06 |
javispedro | haha | 19:06 |

lcuk | shame it couldnt be taken so you cant see the camera in reflection | 19:07 |
jakemaheu | meh | 19:08 |

javispedro | pupnik, probably some dsp thingie then. I don't know about taht. | 19:08 |
Luke-Jr | javispedro: rmmod && modprobe | 19:08 |
jakemaheu | you can see trees at my school in the reflection | 19:08 |
javispedro | Luke-Jr, alsa is builtin in diablo | 19:08 |
Luke-Jr | javispedro: why would anyone use Diablo? | 19:08 |
Luke-Jr | <.< | 19:08 |
* lcuk does - whats wrong with it | 19:08 | |
lcuk | its default and stable and comes with the device | 19:09 |
Luke-Jr | unmaintained buggy piece of crap | 19:09 |
* javispedro also will probably use diablo for life ... | 19:09 | |
aol | So when is Mer finished enough to be less buggy than Diablo? | 19:09 |
pupnik | brb | 19:09 |
Luke-Jr | ask someone who uses Mer | 19:09 |
lcuk | aol, diablo will still be used by some | 19:09 |
javispedro | by Fremantle time ;) | 19:09 |
lcuk | the kind of people who buy a tool and dont see the need to change it if it does everything they want already | 19:10 |
lcuk | some folks still use chinook for similar reason | 19:10 |
Luke-Jr | Diablo is useful only for a notepad really | 19:10 |
lcuk | i use diablo extensively for development | 19:10 |
Luke-Jr | the browser sucks, the communications is too buggy to work right... | 19:10 |
Luke-Jr | the GPS is bugged | 19:10 |
lcuk | mer wont make the hardware magically better | 19:11 |
Luke-Jr | lcuk: none of these are hardware problems | 19:11 |
javispedro | also, I like the browser... :P | 19:11 |
lcuk | the games are good and solid | 19:11 |
Luke-Jr | … | 19:11 |
Luke-Jr | if I wanted a gaming system, I'd probably get a DS | 19:11 |
javispedro | and icd is better than nm ;) | 19:12 |
Luke-Jr | iwconfig > icd > nm | 19:12 |
lcuk | Luke-Jr, people still run DOS and windows 3.1 every day | 19:12 |
lcuk | dure, theres newer and better - but if it works for them, why change | 19:12 |
lcuk | sure | 19:13 |
Luke-Jr | lcuk: DOS is maintained more than Diablo | 19:13 |
javispedro | using the butterfly effect to flip bits in ram > iwconfig > icd > nm | 19:13 |
Luke-Jr | Windows 3.1, people better not be using... | 19:13 |
lcuk | Luke-Jr, DOS is closed source | 19:13 |
Luke-Jr | lcuk: no | 19:13 |
lcuk | does microsoft still release updates | 19:13 |
glass_ | buils down to which dos | 19:13 |
Luke-Jr | Microsoft isn't the only DOS company | 19:13 |
glass_ | dos is easy "realtime" environment | 19:14 |
Luke-Jr | http://www.freedos.org/ | 19:14 |
lcuk | ok, MSDOS is still used you pedantic SOB. you get my point hopefully :) | 19:14 |

* lcuk has done more optimization than most folks realise :) | 20:27 | |
javispedro | optimization you say? i could hit with my "optimization" in your head! remember it's 180000-ish chars long, it could do a lot of damage! | 20:27 |
javispedro | ;P | 20:27 |
jakemaheu | hehehe you still havent fixed the stamp tool in liqbase | 20:27 |
lcuk | why, is it broken? | 20:28 |
* javispedro appropiately #ifdefs USE_CRAZY_NONSENSE_OPTS the whole thing :P | 20:28 | |
javispedro | and calls it a day :) | 20:28 |
lcuk | i seem to recall the only thing wrong with it was it would happily churn away and render a multi recursive drawing | 20:28 |
lcuk | it worked perfectly, and if you had just left it alone it would be finished by now | 20:29 |
lcuk | 12 months in performance mode wouldv done the job i think - providing you didnt add new strokes to it | 20:29 |

javispedro | but I wouldn't expect more than 10-12 fps out of glxgears using it | 20:38 |

* slonopotamus is more than sure that diablo flash has a number of known security holes | 20:59 | |

jakemaheu | if your hardware is too old, it's legacy and not supported in the newest version | 21:04 |
Luke-Jr | jakemaheu: huh? | 21:04 |
jakemaheu | if your hardware is cutting edge, there are no open drivers for it | 21:04 |

Luke-Jr | jakemaheu: no u | 21:07 |
jakemaheu | it does have a legit purpose | 21:07 |
lcuk | so, you expect it to have drivers for your hardware for a set of unsupported binary blobs? | 21:07 |
Luke-Jr | nope | 21:08 |
lcuk | dont get me wrong, i know binary is bad - but thats not totally the same thing as support in linux kernel | 21:08 |
Luke-Jr | name one Free app that needs WINE | 21:08 |
jakemaheu | It's not that-- normally you could downgrade your system and have it working fine again, but no, it break everything | 21:08 |
Luke-Jr | one necessary Free app | 21:08 |

jakemaheu | who cares? | 21:50 |
Luke-Jr | obviously not you | 21:50 |
doc|home | everyone's ignoring my point. Stuff just works. It's seamless. | 21:50 |
doc|home | that's what I want | 21:50 |
amr | doc|home, i agree | 21:50 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: irrelevant if closed | 21:50 |
amr | if you want os x, you buy apple | 21:50 |
amr | if you like it, great | 21:50 |
RST38h | doc: Your point is that you have a MacBook and love it and want us all to love it. | 21:50 |
amr | if not, shut the fuck up | 21:50 |
amr | you cant deny theyre very good | 21:50 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: no! not irrelevant. You have to stay relevant. | 21:50 |
doc|home | RST38h: *sigh* | 21:51 |
jakemaheu | hang on and i'll post a pic of my download folders | 21:51 |
RST38h | doc: Out point is that you should stick your MacBook where light does not shine =) | 21:51 |
doc|home | RST38h: no, that is not my point | 21:51 |
* GAN800 chuckles. | 21:51 | |
RST38h | s/Out/Our | 21:51 |
doc|home | RST38h: if I could do the same on ubuntu I'd be happy. But I can't. | 21:51 |
GAN800 | To each his own. | 21:51 |
RST38h | Do what? Stick an Ubuntu MacBook where light does not shine? | 21:51 |
doc|home | RST38h: you don't need to be rude. It achieves nothing. | 21:51 |
amr | the problem with linux fanboys, is that theyre worse than apple ones | 21:51 |
doc|home | RST38h: you're completely ignoring what my point was | 21:51 |
*** mkpaa has joined #maemo | 21:51 | |
RST38h | doc: After reading itt, I am somewhere between rude and violent | 21:52 |
GAN800 | Fanboys and zealots are bad no matter the platform. | 21:52 |
GAN800 | RST38h, sounds like it's time to take a break and visit with the family. | 21:52 |
RST38h | GAN: That is the funny part, I *am* with the family, vacationing in Greece | 21:52 |
doc|home | RST38h: someone mentioned being irrelevant. It's irrelevant to most people (the market) as it stands now that it's open if it's not as nice to use. That's just the reality of it. | 21:53 |

*** __t has joined #maemo | 21:53 | |

amr | i concur, doc|home | 21:53 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: the idiotic part of the market | 21:53 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: the paying part | 21:53 |
RST38h | derf: Partaking in global conscience, as always | 21:53 |
amr | the part with the money | 21:53 |
amr | damn, too slow | 21:53 |
mkpaa | for some unknown reason my canola has stopped playing any sounds. sounds on other programs work fine and canola worked when I last used it couple of months ago. any idea what could be wrong? | 21:53 |
derf | I didn't realize the globe had a conscience. | 21:53 |
RST38h | derf: Depends on whose globe it is, I guess | 21:54 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: I'm not saying it should be closed. Waaay better if it's not of course. But you can't ignore that they are buying macbooks, iphones, ipod touches. | 21:54 |
slonopotamus | mkpaa, it hsas its own volume control, no? | 21:54 |
Luke-Jr | Apple steals the good developers from the open source community? :þ | 21:54 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: I so wanted an open phone I coughed up 400 dollars for an openmoko freerunner. That still doesn't work. | 21:54 |
RST38h | Gentlemen, could you please just leave Apple alone? | 21:54 |
glass_ | Luke-Jr: they'll get pissed off with apple in no time | 21:54 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: it's not stealing. it's paying. | 21:54 |
RST38h | It is a good company producing very well made objects of technology | 21:55 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: bribing? | 21:55 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: what use is open if the device sucks | 21:55 |
glass_ | RST38h: "designing" objects of technology, based on tech they just buy usually | 21:55 |
mmu_screen | they just throw a bit too much of DRM and closed stuff | 21:55 |
mmu_screen | in | 21:55 |
amr | glass_, it works though | 21:55 |
jakemaheu | EVERYONE JUST SHUT UP | 21:55 |
glass_ | amr: yeh, i got an ipod | 21:55 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: no, paying. The world runs on money. Have you never had to compromise something to pay the bills? | 21:55 |
slonopotamus | hehe | 21:55 |
amr | see :) | 21:55 |
Luke-Jr | GPL should be law | 21:55 |
RST38h | glass: ah, a mere technicality, especially considering that they must control those chinese reeeeally tight | 21:55 |
jakemaheu | Good god, you people are terrible. | 21:55 |
glass_ | amr: but it has bugs, despite being a 5th gen product | 21:55 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: I really hope you're joking | 21:56 |
derf | RST38h: I assume one of your family members has now confiscated your Protege. | 21:56 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: only slightly. | 21:56 |
amr | how old is Luke-Jr? | 21:56 |
* RST38h uses GPL to wipe up | 21:56 | |
* doc|home sighs | 21:56 | |
glass_ | RST38h: umm, i was referring to where they've gotten the bits of 'innovation' | 21:56 |
RST38h | derf: Nope =) | 21:56 |
Luke-Jr | amr: 24/m+/3 | 21:56 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: that is pretty close to promoting some form of communism/socialism in software. You must share! | 21:56 |
RST38h | glass: There is no innovation in Apple product | 21:56 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: GPL doesn't say you must share. | 21:56 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: GPL only says whoever buys it can do what they want with it | 21:56 |
mmu_screen | gee a GPL troll | 21:56 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: it does if you wish to distribute | 21:56 |
RST38h | glass: Actually, there isn't innovation in most products that sell well | 21:56 |
* mmu_screen slurps | 21:57 | |
qwerty12_N810 | mmu_screen: s/GPL// | 21:57 |
RST38h | glass: Innovative stuff usually does not sell :) | 21:57 |
jakemaheu | everyone look at this: http://yfrog.com/0wstuff1lp | 21:57 |
mmu_screen | I eat them for breakfast ;à | 21:57 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: if I buy something, I should be able to do whatever I want with it | 21:57 |
jakemaheu | that is my bittorrent folder | 21:57 |
glass_ | RST38h: uhm, world history is full of stuff that says otherwise. maxim machine gun was innovative and sold pretty well | 21:57 |
amr | jakemaheu, congratulations, you can bit torrent | 21:57 |
jakemaheu | that isn't even all of it | 21:57 |
amr | welcome to the internet | 21:57 |
jakemaheu | ll | 21:57 |
jakemaheu | lol | 21:57 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: and the reason you can't is *because* of legislation. | 21:57 |
*** jeremiah has joined #maemo | 21:57 | |

Luke-Jr | if I buy a few chairs, I can rebuild them into a bed | 21:57 |
RST38h | glass: I am sure that long before Maxim there were similar designs that did not sell :) | 21:57 |
Luke-Jr | and sell that | 21:57 |
glass_ | RST38h: what i was referring to was the companies that apple has bought in the last 10 years and then blatantly just relabeling stuff as theirs | 21:57 |
amr | you downloaded the da vinci code, good lord. | 21:57 |
jakemaheu | that's about 100GB of data | 21:57 |
*** jeremiah has joined #maemo | 21:58 | |
jakemaheu | my grandma wanted it | 21:58 |
RST38h | glass: Examples? | 21:58 |
jakemaheu | lol | 21:58 |
Luke-Jr | if I buy a program, I should be able to use the code in something else, and sell that | 21:58 |
glass_ | RST38h: no, gatling was different design | 21:58 |
jakemaheu | i like house too | 21:58 |
glass_ | RST38h: clickwheel? whole ipod classic os? etc? | 21:58 |
RST38h | glass: iPod classic had an OS? | 21:58 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: GPL merely aims to restore those same property rights | 21:58 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: not even close | 21:58 |
glass_ | RST38h: it has downloadable games and shit too | 21:58 |
RST38h | glass: I mean, it was not that ThreadX-based abomination from Sigmatel? | 21:58 |
Luke-Jr | yes, it has some negative side effects | 21:58 |
glass_ | RST38h: well what you call an os.. | 21:59 |
Luke-Jr | but that is it's goal | 21:59 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: why have rules to negate bad rules. Get rid of the initial rules. | 21:59 |
amr | its* | 21:59 |
RST38h | glass: Accidentally, I am well acquainted with the original iPod hardware | 21:59 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: that's why I was slightly joking :þ | 21:59 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: anyway, we've digressed. What I want in a device is seamless integration. :/ | 21:59 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: but even if we abolish copyright altogether, companies will be able to distribute blobs to get most of the same purpose | 21:59 |
amr | it's conversations like this that make me hope half of you never get into a position where you have a say over how ANYTHING runs | 21:59 |
RST38h | glass: And as I understand, Apple either wrote their own OS for STMP hardware or they used the stuff from SigmaTel | 21:59 |
glass_ | RST38h: the stupidest thing i've encountered is when it locks up in sw so that you can't get it to boot, or shutdown.. have to just wait till battery goes | 22:00 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: yes, I often wish I could be hired to write the software for a device | 22:00 |
RST38h | glass: So I do not see what company they had to buy for that | 22:00 |
slonopotamus | doc|home, don't tell us that itunes is 'seamless' | 22:00 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: just so I have something usable | 22:00 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: I never said perfect :) | 22:00 |
RST38h | glass: That is common for recent ARM-based designs missing reset button :) | 22:00 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: itunes itself annoys me, but it's there and it mostly works. I sync every day. It updates my music, podcasts, mail accounts, done. No worrying | 22:01 |
glass_ | RST38h: dunno. my nokias never seem to do that. and the ipod is supposed to have some watchdog for it. it's really annoying when it does that, it even leaves the hd spinning | 22:01 |
amr | im quite fond of itunes | 22:01 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: doing the same for rhythmbox or songbird or something would be amazing | 22:01 |
amr | i even use it on my windows pc | 22:01 |
Luke-Jr | iTunes does mail now? wtf? | 22:01 |
RST38h | glass: My Nokia requires removing the battery every now and then | 22:01 |
Luke-Jr | please no. | 22:01 |
amr | Luke-Jr, it synchronises ipods | 22:01 |
RST38h | glass: When I am especially cruel to it | 22:01 |
Luke-Jr | my ipod doesn't do mail | 22:01 |
* slonopotamus uses rsync. and you know what? it just works :D | 22:01 | |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: no, it just syncs it | 22:01 |
Luke-Jr | slonopotamus: that's 1 direction | 22:01 |
RST38h | well use two rsyncs | 22:01 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: you think the average moron wants to mess with rsync? :/ | 22:02 |
Luke-Jr | use git | 22:02 |
lcuk | RST38h, rather annoying, thankfully, dropping the battery out of an n810 is a relaxing rewarding experience | 22:02 |
Luke-Jr | then you can do merges | 22:02 |
Luke-Jr | :þ | 22:02 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: I plugged it in first day and it Just Worked | 22:02 |
Luke-Jr | lcuk: what? it's a pain in the butt | 22:02 |
RST38h | lcuk: You should have tried "dropping battery" out of B3-34... | 22:02 |
lcuk | the "clang of the flimsy shell on the surface is satisfying | 22:02 |
doc|home | personally, I don't even have time to mess with rsync scripts :/ | 22:02 |
amr | nor do most people | 22:02 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: git pull && git push | 22:03 |
lcuk | and havign to rebend any pins knocked out by this procedure just makes it more fun | 22:03 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: how many people even know what git is? :/ | 22:03 |
slonopotamus | doc|home, okaaay. the problem with me (and luke) is that we want freedom. we want to use things for what we want, not only what its vendor made it for. | 22:03 |
amr | no one gives a toss what the underlying tecnology is, they want it to do X and do it now | 22:03 |
mkpaa | canola has own volume control, but it is not the problem | 22:03 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: and how do I do that between evolution and claws mail/the default mail client? | 22:03 |
RST38h | slono: problem with Luke is that he is an open source zealot | 22:03 |
amr | ^ | 22:03 |
Luke-Jr | :þ | 22:04 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: so do I, like I said, I even wanted it so much as to buy an openmoko freerunner. That freerunner is still sitting in it's pouch in front of me because it doesn't work | 22:04 |
RST38h | slono: I am not aware of any problems with you, but that may simply be my ignorance :) | 22:04 |
lcuk | slonopotamus, freedom isnt the problem here. you can both do that. and by the same tune, we are free to stick with what we got | 22:04 |
slonopotamus | doc|home, you use same imap server and do not mess with client apps | 22:04 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: yeah, lcuk brings up a good point. Freedom won't prevent these things from existing | 22:04 |
Luke-Jr | doc|home: my gitbackup script takes care of one direction :þ | 22:04 |
Luke-Jr | slonopotamus: IMAP requires network | 22:05 |
doc|home | slonopotamus: already the case | 22:05 |
slonopotamus | ... | 22:05 |
slonopotamus | Luke-Jr, what's the point in mail app without network? | 22:05 |
lcuk | nice calendar, contact list | 22:05 |
lcuk | todo app | 22:05 |
doc|home | it might be useful if people try a friend's devices and see how well it integrates to get what I mean | 22:05 |
lcuk | outlook works perfectly without any net | 22:05 |
doc|home | Luke-Jr: there's local storage I think on most clients | 22:06 |
amr | it's quite refreshing to hear lcuk's and doc|home's opinions | 22:06 |
eichi | i have sometimes the problem, that the screen never goes black, its allways low light...bad for battery | 22:06 |
doc|home | if we could have the integration *and* the openness my ipod touch would be on craigslist tomorrow :) | 22:07 |
lcuk | amr, which bits? | 22:07 |

jakemaheu | I'll run it for a while and it'll go slow (taking 350MB of RAM), then I close it | 22:08 |
jakemaheu | but the process is still running, sucking up memory | 22:08 |
slonopotamus | jakemaheu, you're from another planet? it always worked that way | 22:08 |

RST38h | derf: the bar itself is a bug | 22:15 |
derf | Well, if you have more cogent feedback than that, I can talk to the developers. | 22:15 |
slonopotamus | Luke-Jr, i thought you have reversing skills :) | 22:15 |
RST38h | derf: The problem has been discussed ad nauseum | 22:15 |
Luke-Jr | slonopotamus: not a 5 minute job | 22:16 |
*** __t has quit IRC | 22:16 | |
jakemaheu | I like the smart bar... | 22:16 |
RST38h | derf: Basicallym when I start typing the url in, I expect the bar to immediately autocomplete it for me or at worst not do anything | 22:16 |
RST38h | derf: As it is though, the bar PAUSES for 2-3 seconds, then gives me a wonderful, detailed list of matches, of which I only need the top one anyway | 22:17 |
RST38h | derf: I do not give a shit about its cute list. I just want it to work, immediately. | 22:17 |
jakemaheu | Then be a real man and memorize the url. | 22:18 |
jakemaheu | Wait, a few seconds? | 22:18 |
lcuk | amr, ive had these impressions for a long time | 22:18 |
derf | Sounds like your complaint could be solved with some simple performance optimization. | 22:18 |
slonopotamus | jakemaheu, it doesn't prevent it from slowing down | 22:18 |
RST38h | derf: The problem has been present since 3.0 and it is 3.5 now | 22:18 |
jakemaheu | It never takes that long for me-- and my computer is old. | 22:18 |
RST38h | derf: I also played with settings but could not "optimize" this feature away | 22:18 |
lcuk | just nuke it from orbit, its the only way to be sure. | 22:19 |
RST38h | derf: My guess is that it os doing some sqlite queries or whatever | 22:19 |
derf | I wouldn't doubt it. | 22:19 |
derf | "But databases are fast, aren't they?" | 22:20 |
RST38h | I also suspect that it happens because I have not cleared history for months | 22:20 |
slonopotamus | they should just make it asynchronous, i think | 22:20 |
slonopotamus | derf, if used properly | 22:20 |
RST38h | they apparently have | 22:20 |
lcuk | derf bah | 22:20 |
RST38h | just not asynchronous enough I guess | 22:20 |
lcuk | ive all but dropped sqlite right now after a move | 22:20 |
qwerty12_N810 | RST38h: My FF 3.5 history dated 6 months back and using the bar would make FF shitslow | 22:21 |
RST38h | qwerty: exactly | 22:21 |
lcuk | that took saving an image from practically instant to something i could literally twiddle thumbs waiting on | 22:21 |
lcuk | sketch ^ | 22:21 |
derf | lcuk: That was me doing my best to impersonate a clueless developer. | 22:21 |
lcuk | heh, you should always mention microsoft access when discussing real databases | 22:22 |
lcuk | ;) | 22:22 |
derf | lcuk: I've already had that conversation once today. | 22:22 |
RST38h | Real DB programmers always refer to DBASE III as the benchmark | 22:22 |
lcuk | sqlite is the closest thing to sqlite tho | 22:22 |
lcuk | msaccess | 22:22 |
slonopotamus | rdhi, rdlo and rm must all be different | 22:23 |
derf | It went something like this. "So my client asked me if I could use Access. I told her, 'No. I can't.'" | 22:23 |

slonopotamus | better explain me what does libtool do :) | 22:24 |
derf | RST38h: I'm not sure that's worth it. | 22:24 |
RST38h | slono: satisfies somebody's itch to write tools | 22:25 |
derf | _I_ wouldn't do it for an extra 50%. | 22:25 |
RST38h | derf: "Bablo pobezhdaet zlo", if you still remember the language | 22:25 |
slonopotamus | RST38h, but why so many packages use it? | 22:25 |
* lcuk burnt libtool in fire | 22:25 | |
slonopotamus | :D | 22:25 |
RST38h | slono: Because their authors think it is required | 22:26 |
slonopotamus | lcuk, RST38h, it must be doing smth useful for them, no? | 22:26 |
RST38h | well, sometimes | 22:26 |
lcuk | didnt do anything useful for my library | 22:26 |
lcuk | infact, the whole autotools process made it hairy | 22:26 |
slonopotamus | but what? | 22:26 |
slonopotamus | libtool: install: warning: remember to run `libtool --finish /usr/lib' | 22:26 |

johnsq | slonopotamus: the qemu-arm is all needed to compile and test | 23:33 |
Luke-Jr | uh no | 23:35 |
Luke-Jr | qemu-arm per default will segfault on N8x0 bins | 23:35 |
Luke-Jr | gotta write a C wrapper to add a -cpu option | 23:35 |
slonopotamus | i have sh wrapper :) | 23:35 |
johnsq | Luke-Jr: yea, right, i wrote a shell script wrapper with bash sh | 23:35 |
johnsq | -b | 23:36 |
Proteous | I just wrote a small shell script that replaces johnsq | 23:37 |
Proteous | infact, it's actualy better | 23:37 |
johnsq | latest pixman didn't compile, it says i should enable arm-neon! what is arm-neon? | 23:37 |
Proteous | johnsq script knows that shit | 23:37 |
Proteous | see, directly better | 23:38 |

Luke-Jr | srsly | 23:41 |
slonopotamus | Luke-Jr, you wouldn't fail if you published howto with your wrapper :) but you didn't, and johnsq did | 23:41 |
