smackpotatoso today im looking for a oppinion on swapping with flash memo00:40
smackpotatoin perticular how much harm are the slow write speeds00:40
luke-jr???00:41
johnxswapping to sd? or swapping to the internal "rootfs" flash?00:41
smackpotatoether one. my question is conserning speed not wear00:42
*** X-Fade has quit IRC00:42
*** X-Fade has joined #maemo00:43
johnx"how much harm are the write speeds"? vs what? compared to what?00:44
johnxI swap to sd, because I like it better than running out of memory00:44
smackpotatocompared to a small swap file00:44
johnxa small swap file ... where?00:44
smackpotatothe same one00:45
SpeedEvilIt depends on swap access patterns.00:45
SpeedEvilWorst-case you might see as low as several tens of K a second00:45
SpeedEvilbest case several meg - write00:45
johnxbut sd access will compete with other things trying to access that same sd card00:46
johnxi don't know if both sd cards compete with each other or if that would actually be faster00:46
SpeedEvilThe internal sd is basically a standard SD - but soldered down?00:46
johnxyeah00:47
johnxand not terribly fast00:47
johnx(as long as we're talking the N810's 2GB internal SD)00:47
smackpotatoya i have00:47
*** hannesw_ has joined #maemo00:48
smackpotatoso what size is your recomendation00:48
smackpotatoim with 64mb00:48
johnxas big as you need00:48
johnxthe big question is: what to set your swappiness variable to00:49
smackpotatoswappiness is set to like 100:49
johnxyes. which means swap will only be used when absolutely needed. it's set conservatively to save card life, not aggressively to achieve the best possible speeds00:50
johnxso forget about the size, because unless you're constantly OOM, it doesn't even matter00:50
smackpotatooom?00:50
johnxout of memory00:51
smackpotatothanks guys00:51
*** hannesw_ has quit IRC00:54

braindump03Is there any max. size for a miniSD in the N810?01:02
johnxbiggest you can find01:03
braindump03Great.01:04
braindump0364GB aren't available yet, are they?01:04
*** hannesw has quit IRC01:04
microlithsdhc maxes out at 32GB01:06
microlithand no 32GB miniSDHC cards exist (yet)01:06
braindump03I don't think, miniSD will be continued. I will use microSD with MiniSD adaptor01:07
crashanddie_braindump03, miniSD has already been abandoned01:07
crashanddie_braindump03, for the past 2 years?01:07
braindump03As I said ;)01:07
*** igagis has quit IRC01:08
microlithoh, mini01:08
microlithmicrosd falls into the same boat01:08
braindump03I tried to buy miniSD yesterday. Not in stock anywhere01:09
crashanddie_microlith, you think micro is going to die?01:09
microlithcrashanddie_: nah, it's small enough that it'll hang around01:09
microlithI meant capacity-issues wise01:09
microliththat and I read "mini" and thought "micro"01:10
*** X-Fade has quit IRC01:10
* till- waits for microsdxc01:11
SpeedEvilmicrosdxc is coming01:13
SpeedEvilit's compatible with most microSD devices using firmware though01:13
SpeedEvilsame way sd and sdhc was01:13

mavhcwhy the 32GB limit on sdhc?01:15
johnxit's arbitrary01:16
johnxit's so sandisk can make money on licensing01:16
crashanddie_CYA move01:16
javispedroartificial market segmentation01:16
johnxand what javispedro said01:16
johnxso you have to buy a new camera/media player/whatever01:16
crashanddie_also, it gives them a safety net "The technological limit is 32gb, so there's no need for a 64gb chip"01:16
*** cyndis has joined #maemo01:16
crashanddie_in case it really gets hard to go smaller01:17
mavhcseems like going from 32bit memory addressing to 34 bit01:17
crashanddie_34bit?01:17
mavhcexactly01:17
javispedrowtf? sony decided to use exfat too?01:18
javispedroah well.01:18
johnxit's part of the sdxc standard01:18
johnxwhich just means "reformat to fat32 before use" :)01:18
javispedrobut sony _is_ the standard :)01:18
mavhcbut they are sony01:18
javispedromemory stick wise.01:18
johnxmavhc, nope, 32bit is a 4GB01:19
mavhconly if you're sony01:19
johnxSDXC calls for exfat01:19
mavhcjohnx: you missed my point01:19
javispedrojohnx: what I mean is that memory sticks now call for exfat too.01:19
javispedromemory stick xc, imaginatively called.01:19
johnxmavhc, err, nope. :)01:20
mavhcthey're not dropping memory sticks?01:20
*** Komzpa has quit IRC01:20
johnxbasically with sdhc they're not using addressing bits that are included already01:20
mavhcsigh01:20
mavhcat least xd is dead, and cf, pretty much01:20
johnxcf is still around in new cameras01:21
*** zer0mdq has quit IRC01:21
johnxreally a shame there wasn't a "micro cf" or similar01:21
mavhcsomeone made a raid cf card with 4 sd slots or something01:21
johnxanyways, so yeah, they're increasing the amount of addressable bits by going from sdhc->sdxc but sdhc arbitrarily cuts it off at a certain point01:22
*** zelrikriando has quit IRC01:22
mavhcevil01:22
johnxof course, linux's  sdhc implementation doesn't have this arbitrary limit ;)01:23
johnxsd->sdhc was actually a real addressing change, AFAIK01:23
*** guaka has joined #maemo01:25
GeneralAntillesmavhc, all Linux devices that support SDHC also support SDXC (minus exFAT0.01:26
GeneralAntillesOops01:26
GeneralAntillesSorry, johnx, scrollback.01:26
johnxno worries :)01:26
*** mojocafe has quit IRC01:26
johnxeep, I need to get going01:26
mavhcso with a software change an sdhc slot becomes and sdxc slot?01:27
GeneralAntillesRight01:27
GeneralAntillesWikipedia has the details.01:27
GeneralAntillesSDHC is artificially limited to addressing only 16 of the 22 bits available.01:28
GeneralAntillesBut Linux just ignores that limit.01:28
mavhcnot as evil then01:28
*** yigal has joined #maemo01:28
GeneralAntillesThe only hurdle is exFAT01:28
GeneralAntillesWhich is only a hurdle if you need Windows compatibility.01:29
mavhcwould I, random camera maker, have to pay a licence to update my own firmware?01:29
johnxyeah, but it was attempted evil01:29
GeneralAntillesReally evil shit, though, from the manufacturers.01:29
yigalIs there a way to download browser-proxy.py? http://forums.internettablettalk.com/showthread.php?t=29815&page=201:29
johnxyigal, copy, paste into a text editor, save01:30
yigalI'm on my n800 and it's not so easy to select just the code snippet in the html01:30
yigalIm using tear maybe thats why ill try microb?01:31
johnxhold the menu button and drag01:31
yigalYes in general this works, but not seemingly in this case?01:32
johnxhttp://pastie.org/62313001:34
johnxtry it from here, then ;)01:34
johnxanyone interested in a better fusefs "UI"?01:35
johnxanyways, out for the evening01:35
yigalThanks! MicroB worked, makes me question my resolution on changing browsers. :-)01:35
johnxmight be on later tonight01:35
johnxtear is better :)01:35
johnxdon't compromise01:35

GeneralAntillesTear is too buggy.01:38
yigalBut scrolling is Soooooo smooth01:39
yigalMmmh such a nice experience, except for the bugs01:41
johnxGeneralAntilles, and tear is the browser with cross-hardware future ;)01:41
*** lopz has quit IRC01:41
GeneralAntillesMicroB is open source now.01:41
*** eocanha has quit IRC01:41
*** ScriptRipper has quit IRC01:41
johnxall the way up to the UI? nice!01:42
johnxwonder how I missed that01:42
GeneralAntillesAnnounced a while ago.01:42
johnxso I guess those microb packages I saw in mer were actually the whole thing01:42
johnxinteresting01:42
johnxI still think webkit is a better choice on devices with <=128MB of RAM, but now people will have a choice at least01:43
johnx'later01:43
yigalTy johnx01:43

*** k-s[AWAY] is now known as k-s01:45
yigalGeneralAntilles: do later versions of microb have similar scrolling to tear?01:45
GeneralAntillesFremantle versions.01:46
yigaland if so is it reasonable to use it on an n8x0?01:46
yigalor just >=n90001:48
yigalWhen you have the time that is?01:49
GeneralAntillesNot sure.01:57
GeneralAntillesLikely it'll be possible to backport it.01:57
GeneralAntillesThe key will be finding somebody with the time to do it.01:58

pupnikafter renaming a file, file manager (gtk) doesn't return you to the same view location.  gtk probably only allows redisplaying the list at a certain filename03:09

SudhirHello all. I have got a probelm while running a newly compiled qt progra, on n810. It work on scratchbox but gives error like this on device --> line 1: syntax error : "("  unexpected10:09
SudhirCan anyone help me identify this problem?10:09
johnxhuh10:13
johnxI think I've seen that before10:13
qwerty12_N810(Psst... N810 != X86)10:14
johnxyup, that's where I saw it :)10:14
johnxactually, where I saw it was an ARM executable linked against uclibc on a glibc system, but it's the same idea10:15
johnxSudhir, recompile with the ARM target in scratchbox10:15
Stskeepsjohnx, saw the transcript?10:15
johnxthe thing with Jussi?10:16
Stskeepsyeah10:16
Sudhirohhh i got it10:16
johnxyeah, I read through most of it10:16
johnxinteresting stuff10:16
johnxsome, PR related dodging, but overall very candid10:16
johnxit was interesting to see them reference ITT/TMO when asked about demographics :D10:16
Stskeepsdear god10:17
Sudhirjohnx, qwerty12__n810 thanks. It was the mistake, i used x86 image on device.10:17
johnxno problem. everyone makes that mistake eventually ;)10:18

Stskeepsinstead of being married? ;)10:18
qwerty12_N810Myrtti: get the wedding moved to the venue where the Summit is being held, problem solved! :p10:19
johnxI'll officiate :)10:19
Myrttiqwerty12_N810: not in my hands, I suspect the couple would have objections10:19
MyrttiStskeeps: haven't been proposed yet10:19
qwerty12_N810The couple are not fans of weed and canals? =)10:20
MyrttiI've never met either of them10:20
Myrttiso I wouldn't know10:20
* Stskeeps still can't believe he's married by now10:20
qwerty12_N810Stskeeps: Which is why you can still be found at a computer? ;P10:21
Myrttithough, if I convince myself to believe they wouldn't have N900 with scandinavian keyboard on sale at the summit anyway10:22
Stskeepsbingo, or, i have sufficient space to do my work10:22
Myrttidoesn't work - I still want to be at the summit10:22
qwerty12_N810Videolink: Send your N800 there and buy the N900 and have them sharing video10:23

Maceri was wrong :) that is how it was supposed to go12:05
Macerthe guy that plays peter looks like he is strung out on herion12:05
johnxgot to admit that first ep really simulates memory loss, rather well :)12:05
Macerlike.. i think he is strung out in real life12:06
Macerhaha12:06
Macernobody looks that pale and has eyes that red without being strung out12:06
mavhcI saw 2 eps of fringe, yawn12:07
mavhcsame with defying gravity12:07
Maceryou can never judge a show by its first 2 episodes12:07
mavhcI can judge it by the first 10 mins12:07
Maceri thought raising the bar sucked until later on in the season12:07
Macermavhc: haha12:07
mavhcif you can't write a good pilot why should I waste my time with you?12:08
Maceri give a show at least 4 episodes12:08
Macerheh12:08
Macerever go back and look at the first simpson episodes?12:08
mavhcyes, funny12:08
johnxmavhc, that's why I never read the grapes of wrath: if the first paragraph doesn't pull me in, then why should I care?12:08
Macerno.. they suck12:08
Macer:)12:08
Macerbut they were new so people sucked it up12:09
Macerhaha12:09
Maceryeah... i'm sorry but a show should be given more than 10 minutes. character development takes a little while12:09
mavhcjohnx: if it were published paragraph by paragraph, who would?12:09
Macerit's like watching a basketball team that has never played together... once they get good at it... they win championships12:09
johnxmavhc, I guess I might follow your rule if I actually watched TV on TV :)12:10
mavhcit's like watching a basketball team that has never played together, and filming their first training session12:10
mavhcwait until they're good, then put them in public12:10

Robin_WattsHi all. I've downloaded the maemo sdk image, and I'm running it under VMWare player. I've created a new C Maemo project using the gtkhelloworld thing as it's template. I can build it and run it on the local emulation. lovely stuff.15:14
*** andre__ has joined #maemo15:15
Robin_WattsNow I update the "hello" function to include a call out to a new function that I'll define in an assembler file.15:15
Robin_WattsI rebuild, and nowhere can I see an error given to say it's not defined.15:16
Robin_WattsThe helloworld binary isn't updated (well, the time doesn't change).15:16
Robin_WattsAny clues?15:16

SudhirRobin, may be you delete the old binary and see if you get a new one after recompiling15:21
lcuki dont think hes getting a new binary15:22
SudhirYes, he is not.15:22
lcukif his function includes a call to a not yet existing function and the new .o module has not been linked with the binary - how can it complete the compilation task15:22

pupnikOmapFB vs SGX blitting http://sandbox.movial.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/cairoperf-omapfb-vs-sgx.txt16:08
RST38hpupnik: Can OmapFB blitter be used at all?16:10
*** lherbach has quit IRC16:10
pupnikthese are on beagleboard16:11
RST38hah16:11
lcukhi wazd RST38h pip16:11
lcukpupnik,16:11
RST38hmoo lcuk16:11
pupnikthis issue could have significant impacts16:11
pupnikwhich is the only reason i bring it up16:11
RST38hWell, I can't even figure out how to blit with omapfb16:12
RST38hIt is not like n8x0 where you commanded the Blizzard and it jumped16:12
lcukbut blizzard was end unit16:12
lcukhow did you do hardware blits with blizzard?16:12
lcukand get at the results for further processing?16:13
RST38hlcuk: Blizzard did the DMA, scaled the picture, and showed it on the actual LCD16:13
lcukim guessing the sort of blitting you need would be like talking to the DSP16:13
CorsacStarcraft!16:13
RST38hlcuk: So you had a /dev/fb0 ioctl() that set up scaling parameters and initiated the blit16:13
RST38hit was way easier than talking to dsp really16:14
lcukinitiated the display of your data in a certain rectangle16:14
lcukgranted16:14
RST38hBut anyways, Blizzard is gone, ok16:14
RST38hlcuk: more or less, yes16:14
lcuki think blitter like blitter on amiga - a custom coprocessor that manipulated your frame data16:14
RST38hSo back to the basics: got a framebuffer, got an image in memory, how do I quickly blit it to framebuffer, with scaling?16:15
lcukand then you could do other things with your frame afterwards16:15
RST38hlcuk: that was the copper chip16:15
RST38hlcuk: word "blitter" (from "to blit") is generic nowadays and means quick copying of bitmaps16:15
pupnikit would be nifty if you could build the image in 'shared memory' then when finished, set the start addr of framebuffer to that16:16
lcukblitter and copper are 2 different things16:16
pupniki.e. no copy at all16:17
jaskaamiga also had separate bitplanes instead of chunked pixels as nowadays16:17
* lcuk liked bitplanes16:18
RST38hjaska: yea, scary16:18
pupnikso did the zenith z-110 :)16:18
RST38hIn fact, you can request a bitplaned image from X1116:18
lcukyeah, and that was one of the first things i looked for16:19
lcuki wouldnt have minded pure bw image16:19
RST38hAlthough modern X11 implementations (Xfree) will offer you to go screw yourself instead16:19
lcukhow does it send over lowcolor x11 remoting stuff16:21
lcukdoes it use min 256 colors?16:21
lcukand chunky16:21
lcukcos im sure ive seen extreme low color x1116:21
RST38h1bit16:22
RST38h4bits16:22
RST38h8bits16:22
RST38hAnything in 4-8bits range is palettized views16:22
pupniki think NeXT had smth like 4-bit for the mono slabs16:22
pupnikwhen you ran the x server built for it16:22
RST38h4bits is a valid depth16:23
pupnik(it didnt normally run one)16:23

Robin_Wattsok, gents. I'm, back with a completely clean copy of the MaemoSDK running in a VMware player instance on windows XP.17:28
Robin_WattsWhat I really want to do is to be able to test some simple ARM code that uses ARMv6/7 stuff within the emulated machine.17:29
Robin_WattsI foolishly thought that the easiest way to do that would be to take a simple "hello world" example, and then just tag a bit of extra code onto that - but then I hit all the problems I was talking about earlier.17:30

Robin_WattsTo start with, it's telling me that there are "Software updates available". Do I ignore that?17:31

Robin_WattsSo I've reverted to a clean slate in the hopes that I can get further.17:34
Robin_WattsOK, that sounds like a really great hint :)17:34
RST38hHint #2: Find a hello world example that does not use autoconf (Maemo3 docs/howtos)17:34
*** jdav_gone has quit IRC17:34
RST38hHint #3: Use the "make" command17:34
*** ejdav_gon is now known as jdav_gone17:34
Robin_WattsThat sounds great. Any URLs for hint #2 would be hugely greatly appreciated.17:35
RST38hHint #4: Your plain linux hello world will compile and work on maemo: | #include <stdio.h> | int main(int argc,char *argv[]) { printf("Hello world\n");return(0); }17:35
RST38hIt will not be able to use the UI, but it WILL compile to ARM code and WILL run (unless you get burned by the ARM emulator in the SDK)17:36
Robin_WattsA hello world example on linux I can manage. It's the invocations for the scratchbox stuff that I have no clue about.17:37

luke-jrthat's up to the software20:08
RST38hGA is correct, it is both20:08

Robin_WattsThe assembler in maemo doesn't know about NEON instructions, is that right ?20:08
GeneralAntillesNo, it's not.20:08
GeneralAntillesYou can fake it.20:08

RST38hGeneral: This little example should ABSOLUTELY be in the Maemo5 docs20:27
RST38hGeneral: Because 1) it is the shortest Maemo programming intro possible and 2) It does not make people think they have to use autotools20:27
RST38hRobin: Ok. Your target is what system you are targeting20:27
Robin_WattsThe options in sb-menu are: Exit/Setup a target/Install files to a target/Extract Rootstraps/Activate a target/Reset a target/Remove a target/Show target information/kill all processes in scratchbox20:28
RST38hRobin: DIABLO_X86 means diablo running on your PC20:28
Robin_Wattsyes.20:28
RST38hRobin; DIABLO_ARMEL means diablo running on your tablet20:28

lcukwhatever happened to java is cross compatible and usable everywhere..22:10
lcukdid that myth kinda fade22:10
crashanddie_lcuk, no, still very much alive22:10
luke-jrnever really was true22:10
crashanddie_lcuk, however, you can't really expect an application written for 1.6 to run on 1.422:10
crashanddie_unless you compile it for 1.422:10
javispedrolcuk: not, but as usual, you need to limit yourself to the lowest common denominator.22:11
crashanddie_however, the 1.4 application will run without problem on 1.622:11

AStormluke-jr: I've read the instruction guide some time ago23:52
AStormluke-jr: google should find it, so not NDA23:52
ShadowJKatleast that's my understanding23:52
lcukSpeedEvil, we think in the omap2420 the dsp can write to the super fast framebuffer mem, i dont see why that owuld be different now23:52
RST38hAStorm: You read data from all 4, in 32bit increments if you wish, and combine every 4 corresponding bits into a single index23:52
*** javispedro has joined #maemo23:52
AStormRST38h: so?23:53
AStormthat's one SIMD op.23:53
lcukShadowJK, mmm? the dsp can be started, and the cpu can continue doing whatever it needs23:53
RST38hlet us continue23:53
AStormluke-jr: http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/psheets/man_dsp.htm23:53
felipecDSP can do fast memory moves? not any faster than ARM23:53
RST38hAstorm: That is 4 memory reads + one SIMD op that you probably do not have in the DSP23:53
lcukno1 ever said it could do it faster23:53
AStormfelipec: true23:53
felipecthey both use the same MMU23:54
RST38hAStorm: But let us continue23:54
lcukbut it can do it at same time as the cpu is doing other stuff23:54
AStormfelipec: also true, but the CPU can then do other emulation23:54
RST38hAStorm: Once you get the index, you are supposed to do one more memory read for palette lookup and finally you can pump your pixel to the screen23:54
AStormRST38h: aleo easy, do a memory copy to the framebuffer23:54
jormaforget that i asked ;)23:55
felipecAStorm: you mean let the DSP do the memory move while ARM is doing something else?23:55
RST38hYes, of course, except that you are doing it in the DSP, aren't you?23:55
RST38hAStorm: AND, finally23:55
RST38hAStorm: On every scanline, you are supposed to process copper list and make modifications to the palette and plane addresses23:55
AStormluke-jr: blah, not there23:56
AStormI found it though.23:56
RST38hAStorm: So, let us see, 5 memory reads (one has a chance to get cached but not really), weird bit rearrangement operation, and one memory write23:56
AStormRST38h: that is true23:56
AStormRST38h: 5 LOCAL memory reads.23:57
RST38hAStorm: You can see that your biggerst problem is not even math but the memory accesses23:57
RST38hAStorm: Not local at all23:57
AStormyes, it's one fetch23:57
RST38hAStorm: Each bit plane is 640x480/8=38kB23:57
AStormyou don't have to process whole bitplane at once23:57
RST38hAStorm: So your bit planes will be at least 38kB apart. Not local.23:57
RST38hyou have ot process it line by line23:58
AStormcorrect23:58
AStormsince DSP can do DMA fetches23:58
AStormCPU can in the meantime do other computation23:58
RST38hfrom 4 locations?23:58
AStormyes, 4 DMA fetches.23:58
RST38hand what will the cpu do if it needs to read memory?23:59
AStormit will have to wait until the next scanline.23:59
felipecand keep in mind that most DSP operations will require cache flushes23:59
AStormprobably23:59
RST38hbut you are supposed to be emulating the rest of the system :)23:59
AStormfelipec: ?23:59
AStormwhy23:59
AStormRST38h: yes, but the rest of the system is what? :)23:59
