GAN900Why torn, Stskeeps?00:00
javispedroas for myself... so far I think I'll get it. not this month though.00:00
woglindejavis I would like to see the numbers how many it will buy for 500 euros00:00
GAN900Use the loaner as yours, let the wiff use the discounted one. :P00:00
javispedrowoglinde: it all depends on "when"00:01
Stskeepsjavispedro: issue is really if i should keep it as developer device, pass it on to a needy developer, or what to do..00:01
*** _jason7747 has joined #maemo00:01
StskeepsGAN900: she does actually want one00:01
woglindelets see if my company will buy some00:01
*** sphenxes01 has joined #maemo00:02
javispedroStskeeps: hard decision then, but if you plan to stay here I'd say you'd "enjoy" having a n900 when the 6 months pass by...00:02

javispedroin fact, you and most of maemo.org would enjoy you having a n900 then ;)00:03

javispedro;P00:04
* RST38h moos again00:05
javispedrohi RST38h00:05
RST38hAnyone knows an easy way to access proximity sensor?00:05
*** tkharju has quit IRC00:05
RST38hHeya javis, wanna power-saving hint?00:05
javispedrohow's the emus going? still banging omapfb directly?00:05
javispedroRST38h, why not?00:05
*** yergaN900 has joined #maemo00:05
javispedroi'm considering ditching sdl and going your way (gtk + omapfb)00:05
RST38hjavis: well, I bang fb0 when in full screen mode. It works. And an hour ago, I managed to fully cut off power consumption when inactive00:06
RST38hMine isn't really omapfb any more, just plain fb000:06
javispedrotoo many bugs in hgw, plus zeemote lib requiring glib also may "help" me choose gtk00:06
*** hannesw_ has quit IRC00:06
RST38hjavis: Anyways, in order to completely freeze things, wait for focus-out on your app window00:07
javispedroRST38h: i found out hgw has a provision for powersaving that consists in blocking in dbus receive call00:07
javispedroup to a second only, tho.00:07
RST38hjavis: then shut down sound, stop any timers you are using to sync (setitimer and friends)00:07
javispedrowell, up to two seconds if you add system+session busses.00:07
*** Khertan__ has joined #maemo00:07
RST38hjavis: and do gtk_main_loop_iteration() in a while loop until focus returns00:08
*** ArSa has quit IRC00:08
Khertan__hi again00:08
javispedroRST38h: ah, you're making me remember why game devs don't choose gtk ;P00:08
RST38hjavis: this will nicely block until focus returns00:08
RST38hjavis: come one, gtk is ok00:08
*** danilocesar has quit IRC00:08
RST38hjavis: you wrap it away and it is fine00:08
Khertan__homeip is available in extras-testing00:08
RST38hSeen it =)00:09
Khertan__py2deb is availale in extras testing00:09
javispedroit would help me solve "the input problem" in dosbox (the international one, not the focus one)00:09
javispedrosigh I want my opengles 2 book.00:09
woglinde*g*00:10
RST38hjavis: Look at my EMULib source code if you decide to use Gtk based framework00:10
*** fnordianslip has quit IRC00:10
woglindejavis why not qt?00:10
RST38hjavis: (the only things you really need from gtk is event loop and a GtkImage)00:10
*** pupnik has joined #maemo00:10
Khertan__modest on n900 have a nicer ui ... but still not useable with gmail00:10
* RST38h though gmail was ok?00:11
woglindere pupnik00:11
RST38hNowadays, it is only pop3 that is screwed isn't it?00:11
Khertan__no email retrieved since 5 days00:11
javispedrowoglinde: no answer, really. I have nearly the same experience with both (one app = 3 o 4 dialogs = 24 hours work) ;)00:11
RST38hprobably hung00:11
Khertan__i use imap00:11
woglindejavis hu?????00:11
RST38hyea, gmail is imap and it seems to work so far00:11
Khertan__i ve restart the n900 since00:11
javispedrowoglinde: that I don't have any real reason to prefer gtk over qt right now.00:11
RST38hyou can also kill modest hanging in memory00:12
javispedrowoglinde: so if you have any reason for qt... (not futuristic ;) )00:12
woglindejavis qt-designer00:12
RST38hwoglinde: anyone seriously using that?00:12
woglindeyes me00:12
GAN900Khertan_!00:12
wazd_VDVsx: ping? :)00:12
javispedroI have to say that from all gui designers, qt-designer is best, hands down.00:12
woglindeneeded some time to figure some stuff out00:12
javispedrostill, it's an automated gui designer.00:12
GAN900Give me your secrets!00:12
woglindebut now its cool00:12
woglindeI only make the .ui00:13
woglindeand can use this in my python proggie00:13
* lcuk coughs and compares it to vb and still finds it complex00:13
Khertan__GAN900 ?00:13
javispedrolcuk: yes :(00:13
lcukit needs streamlining00:13
lcukand specific tablet oriented project types00:13
GAN900Khertan_, how'd you get tab, etc working?00:13
lcukwith full packaging etc included00:13
javispedroevery tutorial I've following forces me to create custom widgets.00:13
javispedros/following/followed00:14
lcukso someone can walk up and create a qt app quickly and easily for maemo00:14
javispedrobut I want to do it the ugly way and just put the whole app logic in the form itself >:)00:14
Khertan__GAN900tabs for what ?00:14
*** setanta has quit IRC00:14
woglindelcuk feel free to send in a mameo template00:14
lcukwoglinde, it needs more than a template00:14
javispedrolcuk: tried qt creator?00:14
lcukit needs to communicate with the build process properly00:14
woglindewould be a first step00:14
javispedrotry it.00:14
lcukand debug etc00:15
woglindejavis he did00:15
lcuki am talking about creator lol ;)00:15
javispedroa.00:15
javispedrodesigner != creator though.00:15
lcuki was speaking to one of the devs at the summit00:15
lcuko_O then lol00:15
lcukis it better ? :D00:15
woglindedesigner is only for gui00:15
javispedrodesigner is for gui only. it does not even touch code.00:15
Khertan__ tabulation in irc ? on webchat ? i did use it :)00:15
woglindecreator makes more00:15
lcukhaha javispedro even closer to my current use of vb00:16
lcukload up vb, make standard forms00:16
lcukclick export00:16
Khertan__but tab is available at fn+sym00:16
Khertan__s/did/didn't00:16
javispedroi found qt creator nice. a bit on the "trivial" side though.00:17
*** sphenxes has quit IRC00:17
javispedro(not really much featured... I mean)00:17
*** fiferboy has joined #maemo00:17
lcukwell creator includes designer, so we are still on same page00:18
javispedrostill, I'm gonna keep with gtk, just because I'm going to use it as a x11 wrapper and that's about it, thus no need to keep the libs loaded.00:18
Khertan__really, modest works four day with gmail and now it doesn t retrieve anymore new mail ... strange00:18
woglindelcuk hm right00:18
lcukfrom technical basis it works, it just doesnt get a project to this side easily enough00:18
Khertan__noone really use it in imap00:18
* lcuk never uses email from mobile00:18
javispedrolcuk: but qt creator comes "near" the VB dream. "double click" on a button in a form to edit "command1_clicked()" code nearly works.00:19
lcuk"nearly"00:19
lcukit actually asks to rename the object from the quick look i did00:19
javispedronearly= it's not double click, but rather right click, go to slot....00:19
lcukselect slot00:20
javispedrobut it opens the code editor and fills in the headers.00:20
*** pupnik_ has joined #maemo00:20
lcukget error message couldnt find xyz00:20
lcuknot for me :D00:20
*** derf has joined #maemo00:20
lcuki am trying again later00:20
javispedromaybe you were using beta :P ?00:20
*** frals_ has joined #maemo00:20
Khertan__haha lcuk00:20
Khertan__i say the same things00:20
lcuki wouldnt mind looking at whether i can parse qt .ui files and produce a liq* layout00:20
lcuklol00:20
pupnik_hmm xchat on n900 lagging badly00:21
lcukjavispedro, i redownloaded from qt today00:21
javispedrolcuk: dunno, i am just opening a new project..00:21
pupnik_last thing i saw is RST38h: "Nowadays, it is only pop3 that is screwed, isn't it?"00:21
lcuktis ok00:21
lcukits prolly the old one00:21
lcuki just went on their site and grabbed00:21
javispedrolcuk: drag pushbutton from toolbox into form,00:21
ShadowJKpupnik: scrolled uo?00:21
ShadowJKup00:21
javispedroright click push button,00:22
Khertan__pupnik use webchat00:22
javispedrogo to slot...00:22
lcukhttp://qt.nokia.com/downloads/downloads#lgpl00:22
javispedro"clicked()"00:22
javispedroand it opens the code editor.00:22
javispedrono errors.00:22
pupnik_nope00:22
andre__pupnik, xchat on n900 is really BAD. also tried it00:22
Khertan__works well on the n900 browser00:22
*** EspadaV8_L has quit IRC00:22
lcukjavispedro, good00:22
pupnik_ah ok ty00:22
lcukwhere you grab from, i would gladly gladly do again00:22
*** _jason7747 has quit IRC00:22
pupnik_back to my friend irssi which works everywhere the same00:22
*** hannesw_ has joined #maemo00:22
* ShadowJK imagines webchat uses lots more battery...00:22
pupnik_but xchat has some nice finger optimization work in network list - take a look at it00:22
javispedrolcuk: from that page O.o00:23
javispedroso I dunno whats going on on your install :P00:23
* javispedro dislikes the animation on qt creator when you click on a }00:24
pupnik_you are using qt creator in scratchbox?00:27
lcukahhhh00:27
lcukahhhhhhhh00:27
lcuksaid the blind man00:27
pupnik_or that sits outside scratchbox?00:27
javispedropupnik, so far, non-maemo qt creator.00:27
GAN900Khertan_, I heard you had managed to do some keyboard layout gymnastics at the Summit. My experimentations have been fruitless so fars so I was hoping you vould enlighten me.00:27
lcuk"file new"      "qt designer form"    dialog blah blah00:27
*** EspadaV8_L has joined #maemo00:27
javispedrobut I think it "outside sbox" qt creator may be doable.00:27
lcukright click on the dialog ok/cancel buttons goto slot00:28
lcukaccepted00:28
lcukmoans about missing file00:28
lcuknow i see why..00:28
*** pupnik has left #maemo00:28
woglindelcuk why?00:28
javispedrolol here too.00:28
lcukbecause i added a designer form only00:29
javispedrothe problem is within the dialog template I guess.00:29
lcuki just redid it with a project00:29
lcukand it does as you describe00:29
Khertan__going to sleep00:29
Khertan__bye00:29
lcukworks and opens code00:29
*** Khertan__ has quit IRC00:29
javispedrobye Khertan00:29
javispedroouch.00:29
lcukso it lets you create ui stuff without a project - i am guessing this was the original use of qt-designer now00:30
javispedroif i add to an existing project a new "dialog", and try to "goto slot" it complains about missing ui_dialog.h file.00:30
javispedroit should know enough to try to build that file..00:30
pupnik_:|00:31
* RST38h is still looking for a proximity sensor example. Any good samaritans?00:31
lcukRST38h, source for q300:31
RST38h(btw, you give me that code, you get quake-style fire button in VGBA)00:31
lcukunless its being huddled00:31
RST38hlcuk: Where?00:31
javispedroah sorry, my fault. in the "new" dialog you have to choose "dialog with class" or either it won't have a .cpp file to "edit" for you ;)00:31
* lcuk shrugs00:31
lcukthey showed it at summit didnt they00:31
RST38hyea00:31
RST38hit is in the Extras too00:31
javispedroRST38h: interesting. how's that fire button? :)00:31
RST38hjavis: The quake3 Nokia guys made for n900 uses proximity sensor as the fire button. You close it with your finger and fire away00:32
RST38hjavis: I think it is neat and will go well with accelerometer controls00:32
javispedrointeresting way to gain an extra hard button00:32
javispedro"hard" lol00:33
RST38haha, it is in the MCE.00:33
RST38hBut I would like to know the sysfs entry00:33
lcukyeah novel hack :)00:33
*** Sargun has quit IRC00:33
lcukcant play in the dark tho00:33
RST38hehhehe, it can, as long as you have unlimited amount of ammo00:33
lcukhaha00:33
woglindelol00:33
lcukok javispedro so it will do as you said00:34
lcuki am still curious how to get this over to tablet00:34
javispedrofirst step would be to get the codesourcey windows toolchain working (if it exists! lol)00:35
*** greenfly has joined #maemo00:36
lcukisnt there a qt single lib00:36
ShadowJKwhy not in the dark?00:36
javispedroqt single lib?00:36
lcukthat it can be built against directly on device00:36
*** tonikitoo has quit IRC00:36
lcukShadowJK, its based on light isnt it?00:36
lcukor is proximity something else00:37
javispedroor infrared.00:37

ShadowJKinfrared light00:37

greenflykeystrokes seem to get across (when I re-attach from a different host I can see them) but it's like it stops updating the maemo5 xterm00:38
lcukwoglinde, ill have a double tonight thx00:39
trbsis it possible to get the widgets in the scratchbox ( xephyr ) for fremental transparent?00:39
woglindelcuk there is QtCore00:39

Stskeepsalso, the device programme thread has caused me to give up hope in humanity.00:43
RST38hIt now blocks when it is ready to show a frame00:43

RST38hjavis: What?00:45
javispedrowhat are you doing? powersaving when the user is not "there",00:46
* RST38h quietly sends a note to the Tentacled one to queue up half of t.m.o membership for dinner00:46
javispedroor powersaving while the emulator is actually running?00:46
RST38hjavis: Well, several things00:46
RST38hjavis: #1: When EFF_SAVECPU option is in effect and the emulator window goes into background for whatever reason, I block now.00:47
GAN900Stskeeps, meh, it's like 4 people. :P00:47
javispedrook, #1 is same as you requested to me too.00:47
RST38hjavis: #2: When MCE sends me INACTIVE notification, I *always* block00:47
javispedroah.00:47
RST38hjavis: #3: When emulator prepares a frame, but the 60fps timer has not ticked yet, I block.00:47
greenflyis this channel more aimed toward development? I can take my user-level question to a different channel if there's a more appropriate one00:47
javispedroStskeeps: just wait, a few more threads about that are on the making ;)00:48
RST38hjavis: And finally #4: When waiting for a keypress or mouse (WaitKey() in EMULib) I also block00:48
javispedrogreenfly: this can be a user channel, but please google your question a bit before asking.00:48
Stskeepsgreenfly: asking is better00:48
RST38hgreenfly: Shoot00:48
greenflyjavispedro: done a lot of googling already00:48
RST38hBut yes, do google or we may ask you to unask your question00:48
fralsa good unask is nice00:48
greenflysure, I give you permission to flame me if you can find the answer in a quick google search00:49
*** aloisiojr has quit IRC00:49
*** etrunko has quit IRC00:49
javispedroRST38h: ah, #4 only blocks if emulated cpu is paused (you're on the onscreen gui, etc.)00:49
RST38hjavis: Yea.00:49
greenflyI'm noticing when I connect to a remote screen session over ssh in the xterm, the local xterm seems to stall and stop showing updates00:49
javispedroactually #3 is on drnoksnes but of course only certain parts of sm world actually get enough speed to sleep.00:49
RST38hgreenfly: Correct00:49
greenflyfrom the testing I've done the keypresses seem to get through00:49
RST38hgreenfly: It is the result of the tablet WiFi saving power00:49
RST38hgreenfly: You can actually go to wifi connection Advanced Config and turn off the power saving. This will make ssh more responsive00:50
greenflywhy does that affect screen sessions but not regular interactive shells?00:50
RST38hgreenfly: Your device will eat batteries like crazy though00:50
* ShadowJK hasn't noticed this00:50
RST38hgreenfly: It affects everything. Screen may just transfer more data before it shows you anything00:50
RST38hShadowJK: Well, latest firmware we have got (41.10?) is way better on this00:51
RST38hShadowJK: But still does it00:51
javispedroactually, as for the tmo thread, qgil is pretty good following what's going on in maemo. can't complain.00:51
wazd_gnite maemo00:51
greenflylet me try that. thanks for the help :)00:51
javispedrohe's 100% right on his last post.00:51

ShadowJKrst38h: oh on N8x0 I mean00:52
RST38hShadowJK: Ah! N8x0 is way better on this00:52
javispedrouh.00:52
RST38hShadowJK: N8x0 will STILL hiccup every now and then though00:52
pupnik_interesting00:53
KMFDMis there any way to get the phone to accept an expired 802.1x cert?00:53
RST38hset the clock back?00:53
KMFDMmy school decided they are too lazy to update their cert that expired in 200800:53
javispedroKMFDM: blame your school.00:53
javispedroI went on a personal rampage on mine00:53
javispedroand got an updated cert.00:53
RST38hhow many casualties?00:53
ShadowJKrst38h: mine seem pretty consistent. no hiccups, just higher latency00:54

dotblank3So I just learned that the n900 cant act as a usb host?01:06
RST38hyes. so?01:06
absoluteits true, but there are workarounds for most use cases01:06
RST38hafaik, no workarounds.01:06
Mouseysee? tolja it was saddening, the no host-mode thing01:06
absolutenot pretty, and probably never out of that port01:07

*** panaggio has joined #maemo01:07
absolutethere are other ways to accomplish01:07

SpeedEvilIs there more recent information than the couple of mails to the list a month ago?01:07
SpeedEvilOr is this just ongoing speculation?01:07

javispedronot doing that is a partial truth.01:22
RST38hbut doing that is a partial truth as well, just a different part01:22
javispedroyeah, I guess it depends on your level of nitpickyness01:23
RST38hand it all depends on how many processes use that particular library01:23
RST38hactually here is a good measure:01:23
RST38hfor every shared library, divide its size by the number of processes that use it01:23
RST38hthis will give me your process' share in that library01:23
javispedroRST38h: drnoksnes uses 10m RES, gui uses 12m.01:24
RST38hSDL?01:24
javispedro(I don't know where busybox top gets the %MEM)01:24
RST38hInstall htop from the repo01:24
javispedroi'm using debian top now01:25
RST38hhtop is better, top is kinda untruthful01:25
RST38hAlso, SDL probably maps the whole fb0 into address space of the process01:25
ShadowJKAtleast in the past, each new thread got something like 8megs of stack mapped, so every new thread would grow virt by 8Megs even if the thread was using only 4k of it (meaning only 4k of ram/swap used) :)01:25
RST38hShadow: It is ok: mapped != allocated01:25
ShadowJKyes01:26
ShadowJKthat's my point.01:26
RST38hAlso, look at the file dialog: it still maps 100+MB01:26
javispedroRST38h: nope, SDL uses XShm after all.01:26

zerojayYeah, I know how to do it, but for some reason it's just not coming up even though I know the command is right. Aside from this one little issue, the package is ready for testing and works fine.05:23

Stskeepsgod, the back button in browser is retarded.10:16
RurouniJonesOk, I am new to all of this so is my thining correct; Pyside is gonna bind Python to QT and QT will eventually add hildon widgets...so if I am understanding this correctly we will need pyside to also do bindings to the QT hildon widgets to get a nice lookin N900 app?10:18

RurouniJonesMaybe I'll start with python-hildon. Seems the least painful way for a beginner10:37
LupuAll I know is that the current UI is hildon, so 'get a nice lookin N900 app' like you mentioned before, you'd want to use python-hildon. Both Qt and Hildon will coexist, but I think it's a little early to start worrying about Qt if what you need is Hildon.10:37

mgedminrst listed what you must to do, but didn't mention what you should do: open up voting guidelines and make sure you checked everything that the app should do right14:36
RST38hmgedmin: If app works for the user, the user votes it up.14:36
crashanddie_RST38h, we provide x86 scratchbox, thus we need to make sure it is tested as well, and correctly migrated14:36
JaffaX-Fade: Any concrete plans for improving the UI for testers/karma per version (not per version + arch)? If not, we can draft an email or a bug14:36
RST38hmgedmin: this is it14:36
Jaffamgedmin: Indeed14:36
RST38hcrashanddie: Do you want ALL end users know about it?14:36
mgedminwhat about things like 'make sure the icon is there' and 'make sure it doesn't kill your battery life'?14:36
crashanddie_RST38h, of course not, but QA should not be done by end users14:36
RST38hcrashanddie: these are guys with N900s. Why should they even SEE i386 packages?14:36

Jaffasuch as, anyone who went to the summit14:38
RST38hmgedmin: Unfortunately, Niels et al have not reached this point of understanding yet14:38
crashanddie_zerojay, it's already too much effort for people to go to bugzilla, you honestly believe they'll give a shit about having the app in extras rather than testing, as long as it runs on their device?14:38
zerojayIt takes three clicks to go from the list of packages in extras-testing to posting your vote.14:38
JaffaRST38h: I think that's unfair. It's just there's a lot of infrastructure and X-Fade's not a UI guy14:38
pupnik_interesting discussion14:39
RST38hJaffa: It is not about infrastructure or UI14:39
JaffaSo, let's start pulling together concrete suggestions - preferably even with HTML ;-)14:39
mgedminzerojay: and how many clicks from my browser start page to the package list?14:39
RST38hJaffa: The current Extras promotion scheme is doomed to keep Extras empty, this is what it is about14:39
crashanddie_app manager supports voting14:39
pupnik_how about a few functional 'forms' for N900 prototype testers to use...14:39
JaffaRST38h: It is; cos the software's being written by one person whilst the process is being defined14:39
zerojayStart here: http://maemo.org/packages/repository/qa/fremantle_extras-testing/ -> click on package version number -> click thumbs up/thumbs down. Is it really that hard?14:39

Jaffacrashanddie_: Not going to happen. However, the community app built on top of HAM and pulling down screenshots/comments etc. from maemo.org/downloads could14:40
RST38hJaffa: So, yes, we should at least partially fix the braindead promotion policy by making it easy to vote and comment14:40
RST38hJaffa: THIS can be done with HTML and infrastructure changes alone14:40
mgedminworkaround: blog posts14:40
crashanddie_Jaffa, not possible to write our own app manager?14:40
JaffaRST38h: How about constructively raising criticisms of the promotion policy on -community or -developers?14:40
Jaffacrashanddie_: Indeed, that's what's coming apparently.14:41
RST38hJaffa: I have raised these issues here with Niels a few times14:41

RST38hJaffa: Well, I strongly doubt anyone will listen to me on the list14:42
RST38hJaffa: Right now, I am simply assuming that Maemo4 Extras has been renamed to Extras-Testing in Maemo514:42

*** IcanCU has quit IRC15:39
mgedminJaffa: or hack something up with the stdlib's unicodedata module15:39
zerojayVDVsx: I throw it into Gimp and pull out a 1600x240 size image (or close to it). I then go to work trying to make it loopable. Since everything is tiled, I impose a 16x16 grid on the image, careful it matches up with the tiles themselves and then copy and paste tiles around.15:39
zerojayVDVsx: Sometimes zoom up and do some fixing, especially in the case of that DKC one.15:40
Jaffamgedmin: It seems there's already a unicode module for python which'll make it a one liner. trans might be even better, tho'15:40

*** millenomi has joined #maemo17:50
kirmaif both coordinates and landmark database could be accessed from web sites/wrt after user approval, one could write many applications like "next bus home/whatever" as web 2.0 style stuff and in addition avoid using too much battery or creating redundant landmark databases for user to maintain...17:51

kirmaI'm still waiting location awareness to catch on in truly interesting ways. for instance, I hacked a local web server providing location data for ajax apps on S60/Python and it was nice... and could theoretically do what I want in this case, but it'd be a bit fragile implementation17:54

Stskeepsthere was a USB certification issue17:55
sevardeven without the software hack available for the n810?17:55
kirmabut once one gets reasonably accurate data from cellids and sees the landmark database, "intelligent guesses" by the application become much easier and less power hungry -> real potential for widget that would show *always* how to get home fastest using local buses, for instance.17:55

SpeedEviljavispedro: 'comes without usb host mode' is rather ambiguous. It can mean several things. We don't provide the driver. There is no 5V power supply. The pull up/down resistors are missing. There is a SoC bug or other issue meaning you can't set the D+/D- pins to host mode.18:02

Arkenkloholy shitnipples, I just realized that I can simply copy my ~/.ssh to mah future n900, and everything will work19:12

*** warp10 has quit IRC23:41
RST38hwoglinde: nothing, just watched a few last soap episodes on the tablet23:41
woglindejavis hm right23:41
javispedrobut I don't know if the wm itself uses xrandr to do the actual rotation.23:41
javispedroor just sets some magic flags in the compositor.23:41
woglinderst ah right some guys doubled the work and uses gst-dsp instead of gst-ti23:42
RST38hjavispedro: The most obvious idea would be to simply resize the window23:42
woglindeI like the gst-ti appriach more23:42
RST38hwoglinde: what is the difference?23:42
RST38hjavispedro: so, resizing it from 800x480 to 480x800 is not elite enough or am I missing something?23:42

felipecgst-dsp was done mostly by me23:49
felipecgst-ti is for davinci platform, depends on codec-engine, and dmai, and uses the dsp-link driver23:49
RST38hfelipec: :))))23:49
woglindeRST38h yeah23:49
woglindegst-ti is for ompa35xx too23:50

felipecwoglinde: dsp files?23:55
mgedminShapeshifter: because screen hates me23:55
wndand then there are irc proxies23:55
mgedminit tends to fsck things up23:55
Shapeshiftermgedmin: it does?23:55
woglindefelpic the .c6423:55
Shapeshifterhow so? :|23:55
mgedmine.g. on a n900 do ssh someserver; mutt --> all works23:55
RST38hmgedmin: screen requires regular sacrifice23:55
mgedmindo ssh someserver; screen mutt -> enter no longer is an enter, but "unknown keybinding"23:55
felipecwoglinde: no, TI provide us with the final .dll64P files23:55
RST38hmgedmin: not much though, a hamster or two a week will do23:55

*** sphenxes01 has quit IRC23:56
RST38hmgedmin: switch to FreeBSD and PINE, work beautifully with screen23:56
RST38hmgedmin: Besides, you get an additional advantage of using the PICO!23:56
ShapeshifterThe only problem I ever had with screen is when I used it on cygwin, where not detaching manually would lead to the session being broken and impossible to attach to again.23:56
Shapeshifterall the time23:56
* RST38h laughs satanically23:56
Shapeshifterso, screen is pretty much broken in cygwin I think.23:56
Stskeeps:autodetach on23:56
ShapeshifterStskeeps: it was on23:56
RST38hShape: s/screen/everything/23:57
mgedminalso screen tends to slow things down noticeably23:57
RST38hnot really23:57
felipecwoglinde: probably, but gst-ti is for dsp-link, which is not supported by TI wireless division, which is the one for phones23:57
felipecwoglinde: and dsp-link doesn't have power management AFAIK23:57
zerojayN900i prefer using a tablet client when i'm on it.23:57
woglindefelipec hu??? there is a kernel module for it23:58
felipecwoglinde: so? N900 is a consumer product, we need official support from the chipset vendor, and TI's solution is with dsp-bridge, not dsp-link23:58
*** ScriptRipper_ has joined #maemo23:59
*** victorpoluceno has quit IRC23:59
woglindefelipec hm yes I understand that23:59
