javispedroit's something I could remember to do if I want to shup the fscking ring.00:10
javispedroin a hurry.00:10
javispedros/shup/shut up (i like to invent verbs it seems)00:10
Maceruntil you have it in a bag jumping around and miss a booty call00:10

qwerty12_N810Slamming it down would be more stress relieving :)00:15
aSIMULAturor throwing it across the room00:16
timeless_mbphi qwerty12_N81000:16
timeless_mbpdid you look into window parenting?00:16
javispedroI've seen nearly two times a phone ringing, with the owner unable to stop it.00:16
qwerty12_N810timeless_mbp: Not today00:16
javispedrodue to gettings on his nerves/stress/whatever00:16
timeless_mbpaSIMULAtor: fwiw, the fact that the second call rings while the phone is face down sucks :)00:16
qwerty12_N810aSIMULAtor: ...or throwing it on the person who's calling you :p00:16
aSIMULAturyeah true, timeless00:17
absoluteyeah, but what other option is there? you don't want calls to be silent in your pocket if the phone happens to be angled that direction00:17
timeless_mbpabsolute: um00:17
timeless_mbpvery simple00:17
timeless_mbpthe phone knows its orientation00:18
aSIMULAturto press on the "silent" button00:18
timeless_mbpand only goes into silent mode if you receive a call and flip it over00:18
aSIMULAturoh nm i read your question wrong00:18
timeless_mbpit should leave that mode if you flip the phone up again00:18
lcukshake to cancel call would be good00:18
*** chelli has quit IRC00:18
lcuk"arghhhhhhhhh"00:18
timeless_mbplcuk: so if it rings while you're jogging, you miss the call?00:18

timeless_mbpwhy?03:25
lcukwhat is it then timeless03:25
greenflybecause it is a common key03:25

timeless_mbphow many phones have you met w/ alt keys?03:26
greenflyis that really your argument?03:26
timeless_mbpno03:26
timeless_mbpthe real argument is that the idiotic hardware designers decided to limit the number of keys03:26
timeless_mbpand you're complaining about the lack of an alt key03:26
timeless_mbpwhen most of the regions complain about the lack of up and down arrows03:26

Ppupnikheh i know the confuzzlement03:36
lcukwell if i make specific packages for each of the modules i use03:37
lcuki fill up my main menu on n90003:37
Ppupnikcan we still manually build packages?03:37
lcukwith items i never use03:37
Ppupnikmhm03:37
lcukcos i run in the playground03:37
lcukits a granuality issue03:37
lcuki dont just want a single package to install liqbase and dump everything in there03:37
lcukthats no better than last year03:38
lcukbut i still have lots of apps03:38
timeless_mbplcuk: can you offer a way to generate .desktop files for people?03:41
timeless_mbpso that they can choose which items appear in the menu?03:41
lcuknot practical really - its a user app03:41
lcuk.desktops are stored in root end arent they03:42
lcuki could obviously03:42
timeless_mbphave you installed my translation package/03:42
lcukbut its the first time03:42
lcuknot sure03:42
lcuki installed a load of stuff, but reflashed device recently03:43
timeless_mbpyou'd remember03:43
timeless_mbpbut you can look at how i manage that problem03:43
*** benh has joined #maemo03:44
qwerty12_N810lcuk: Y'know, desktop files do look an awful lot like GLib's GKeyFiles... That could probably be hacked up to dump a desktop file, but, say, liqbase was uninstalled? How would you ensure that the generated desktop files were gone?03:44
*** benh has quit IRC03:44
lcukyeah qwerty12_N81003:44
lcukthe problem actually extends beyond that tho03:44
lcukfor another reason :P03:44

timeless_mbpany provider would need to have a postrm to kill its file03:48
lioriif a symlink doesn't work, treat it as not existing; make all desktop files in one place, and let the user symlink the necessary ones to his directory if he want to?03:49
lcukahhhhhhhhhh03:49
lcukplan b03:49
timeless_mbpliori: you're assuming a sane design for the menu chooser03:49
timeless_mbpthat seems unlikely03:49
lcukinstall everything with the playground itself as normal03:50
lcukjust throw the kitchen sink of liq_lcuk modules03:50
lcukfrom one package03:50
lcukif user explicitely wants torch from the menu03:50
lcukthey can install a specific package which just links to the already existing liq* stuff03:50

dmj7261They're making an iphone 3GS (maybe 3G too) port08:38
dmj7261Top post is about that and the pay what you want sale today08:38
dmj7261I think we should try to get an n900 port08:39
dmj7261I suspect that a maemo port would be trivial (minor UI tweaks to linux port and recompile for arm)08:40

argontus_depends on the server I guess but ping/pong happens about once per minute13:09

mgedminI love how "ten oldest open enhancements" list in the bug jar has entries saying "(new this week)"14:51
DocScrutinizerthe question is: Does N900 follow the Nokiacharger / USB2.0- charger supplement scheme, which requires a arther "soft" PSU that drops voltage on increasing curent. Or does N900 simply try to draw whatever current from USB-VBUS unconditionally and assuming a "hard" PSU that is supposed to cope with max current the N900 ay ask for14:51
DocScrutinizernnod: yep, charging N900 from FR14:52
ShadowJKDocScrutinizer, there's a MicroUSB charging specification. Might have clues14:52
DocScrutinizerFR is a "hard" PSU with 500mA max14:52
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: [2009-10-19 13:51:45] <DocScrutinizer> the question is: Does N900 follow the Nokiacharger / USB2.0- charger supplement scheme14:52
nnodwow, must be a big drain on the battery14:53
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: USB2.0- charger supplement == MicroUSB charging specification14:53
hrwlcuk: alive?14:53
ShadowJKI know someone made their freerunner extremely hot when they used it to charge N900 ;-)14:53
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: that's what I referred to14:54

Corsachow much current can an usb port supply?14:54
ShadowJKCorsac, 500mA14:54
Corsacok14:55
SpeedEvilCorsac: it's a complex subject.14:55
DocScrutinizersuihkulokki: thanks a lot14:55
Corsacso with 7 usb port one could charge a touchbook14:55
* Corsac hides14:55
SpeedEvilCorsac: The normal USB port is specified to provide 500mA14:55
ShadowJKCorsac, only if the USB hub has a powersupply capable of it14:55
suihkulokkibut: also, when n900 is in the market, it will be usb certified, including ensuring it adheres to all requirements of usb charging spec14:55
SpeedEvilCorsac: but it may in practice supply more.14:55
Corsacyeah, 7 independant usb port14:55
hrwCorsac: USB spec says that host usb port should give 100mA and can give 500mA. It is also possible to give any amount in 0-500mA range14:55
SpeedEvilNot quite - the device declares it uses so much current - and the host enables it or not depending on if the total of current is under 500mA.14:56
SpeedEvilTehre is not typically any measurement or regulation of current14:56
koala_mancan the N900 work as a usb host?14:57
ShadowJKkoala_man, current information: no14:57
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: the "better" host PHY chips do meassurement14:57
SpeedEvilThe port will simply turn off at some current over 500mA if overloaded. (where some current may be 0.55A or 2A, depending on stuff)14:57
SpeedEvilyes - it's increasing14:57
* suihkulokki has seen usb hubs that feed electricity towards the host pc too, so with cheap hubs anything goes, it seems..14:57
DocScrutinizerevery PHY has to do OC prot14:57
cosmokoala_man: i think i saw the usb mode changer in repository.. i guess it's like in previous maemo devices14:58

ShadowJKDocScrutinizer, it's the battle of the PSUs, the weaker PSU goes up in smoke eventually :-)14:59
DocScrutinizersuihkulokki: though great for FR which can use this to charge in hostmode even14:59

mgedminI haven't heard anybody report "hey, usb host works!" yet15:07
DocScrutinizerand I think there are some N900-owners around here to do that15:07
mgedminso far I've heard "we've been told it doesn't; maybe, just maybe, you could hack something with an external usb power injector etc."15:07
mgedminlike with 77015:08
DocScrutinizer(check sysfs, try switching usb-mode)15:08
cosmowell, i have a n900 but no usb cable to test with here15:08
DocScrutinizermgedmin: exactly15:08
mihuOn my N900, I usually just turn on screen lock , I don't use the lock function that locks it with a number. I don't have a watch, so for checking time and date, I just push the power button on the top, then the device powers up and shows the time and date, along with the "slider" widget to actually unlock the screen.15:08
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: But you know that the number of people with a voltmeter, or the knowledge to do cables, and ...15:08
mihuFor me, it's annoying that I cannot turn off the device with a single press on the power button again. So either I have to really unlock the device with the slider widget, then press the power button and select lock again. Or I have to wait for 5 seconds on the slider screen, then it turns off automatically.15:08
mihuOf course there is the danger, that presses on the touchscreen will keep it alive afterwards. Does anybody find this annoying as well?15:09

mgedmin"I don't know how to solve the issue the way you want, but maybe you weren't aware of that other little possibility, and now knowing it maybe makes your life a bit easier?"19:21
GeneralAntillesmgedmin, mostly I saw "I can't imagine any reason anybody would even need to input text any differently than we've designed"19:21

crashanddieali1234, anyway, getting back to the initial subject: no need to over-engineer and over-complicate things, GA is right in the fact that simply lowering the value of each sentence makes more sense than having a CPU crunch useless numbers for something as useless as karma20:52
lcukjust see what the stats come out with20:52
lcukand then gain a reasonable metric based on those20:52

crashanddieali1234, maemo.org is already quite low on power as it is, and I'm feeling that the influx of users we're going to get with the marketing campaigns of the n900 isn't going to lower that, and I can't but think that doing nickname matching is going to be very expensive in terms of cpu hours20:52

derfEven better, if they can't get something through the European patent system, they just refuse to license the US patents to people unless they also agree to pay licensing fees for any other locale where they want to distribute the product.21:58
GeneralAntillesWhile benefiting the public in the long term.21:58
absoluteeven copyright is really screwed up to an extent though, i agree21:58

SpeedEvilCeron^: If you value having root on a phone - it's practically the only phone out there.23:22
kynkyovi maps for linux (maemo) will improve23:23
timeless_mbpCeron^: i think it's likely that maemo mapper will be there23:23
GeneralAntillesCeron^, Maemo Mapper.23:23
zerojayCeron^: It rocks, plain and simple. I've never needed USB host on previous tablets nor this one... Ovi Maps is more than good enough for me.23:23
timeless_mbpand fennec geoloc support will probably enable google maps23:23
GeneralAntillesMaybe the Ovi Maps team will suddenly stop sucking.23:23
Ceron^what if i for example want to take my canon 5d pictures and transfer them to my n90023:23
Ceron^:D23:23
SpeedEvilIt's likely - Imo - that the opensource alternatives of the closed-source parts will start to increase after there are several thousand devices in the wild23:23
kynkyyou can install debian and gentoo on it, and a full linux distro can do alot :)23:23

SpeedEvilThere is clearly no USB host support, if it would support USB host when you set the right configuration bit, and then solder up a cable to a powered hub - isn't clear.23:25
