timeless_mbp | and suggest the person start coming up w/ questions about strings that aren't obvious | 00:16 |
timeless_mbp | and ask that this person wait 2 weeks before actually trying | 00:16 |

GAN900 | Yeah, the shift key has a race condition | 00:54 |
GAN900 | SHould | 00:54 |
GAN900 | That was one key press of the shift key. . . . | 00:54 |
*** ArSa has joined #maemo | 00:54 | |
qwerty12_N810 | That may be intentional; my N810 also does the same | 00:55 |
GAN900 | Only Nokia could introduce a race condition into a freaking keyboard. . . . | 00:55 |
GAN900 | Intentional for what purpose. . . . | 00:55 |
qwerty12_N810 | I find it a time-saver, actually | 00:55 |
GAN900 | When doing what? | 00:55 |
GAN900 | I find it a huge time waster. | 00:56 |
lcuk | what condition gan? | 00:56 |
lcuk | what happens | 00:56 |
qwerty12_N810 | When I'm using one hand and I can't be arsed to hold shift | 00:56 |
javispedro | I have a race condition with the word predictor in the browser and I don't know when I introduced it. | 00:56 |
GAN900 | It means I either have to slow down typing or delete characters. | 00:56 |
qwerty12_N810 | Just a quick press of the shift key and the letter and I'm done! | 00:56 |
*** gunni has quit IRC | 00:56 | |
GAN900 | lcuk, scrollback. . . | 00:56 |
GAN900 | Erm? | 00:56 |
javispedro | type "h" + "e" + "l" + "l" + "o" quickly results in "ehllo" | 00:56 |
GAN900 | I get two shifted characters | 00:57 |
lcuk | <GAN900> Crap | 00:57 |
lcuk | <GAN900> There's a race condition with the shift key. | 00:57 |
lcuk | <GAN900> Hahaha | 00:57 |
lcuk | <GAN900> Poor Canadians. | 00:57 |
lcuk | you have a mind that wanders | 00:57 |
javispedro | because the h keypress starts the predictor, bumps CPU usage, but the "e" key goes straight. | 00:57 |
GAN900 | SHould | 00:57 |
qwerty12_N810 | Ah, I keep prediction turned off here | 00:57 |
GAN900 | That was one key press of the shift key. . . . | 00:57 |
lbt | it has prediction? | 00:58 |
javispedro | I am worried I introduced that predictor behaviour with my MicroB patch :S | 00:58 |
GAN900 | lcuk, no, I'm just quite capable of following multiple conversation threads. | 00:58 |
GAN900 | Press shift | 00:59 |
GAN900 | then press two characters in quick succession | 00:59 |
GAN900 | Lots of times you get two shifted characters. | 00:59 |
GAN900 | When you should only ever get one. | 00:59 |
lcuk | when do you release the shift key | 00:59 |
qwerty12_N810 | Erm, wait, my N810 does not do the same. Like always, I'm thinking of something else. Sorry | 01:00 |
lcuk | ie, do you press release shift, then "A" then "B" | 01:00 |
javispedro | WORKSFORME in N810. | 01:00 |

qwerty12_N810 | javispedro: :) | 01:50 |
javispedro | I think the "I accept" translation is best. | 01:50 |
timeless_mbp | what i like is that the strings are shorter, and still very accurate | 01:51 |
javispedro | it perfectly synthesizes what the person who designed that dialog had in mind. | 01:51 |
ClaesBas | Is there any better place (than this) to ask questions about PyMaemo/HildonDesktop (not working) examples? | 01:51 |
timeless_mbp | javispedro: yeah, that's one funny thing about my translation | 01:51 |
timeless_mbp | it tends to be much closer to designer intent | 01:51 |

pupnik | no user/gamez yet | 02:00 |
VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, I thnik py2deb is valid, and we thumb it down , eheh | 02:00 |
innociv | whao.. the n900 has about 12 hours of battery life with normal usage like web browsing? That's a lot. | 02:02 |
javispedro | i still don't know if it's a user/ package | 02:02 |
lcuk | GAN900, you said before about the unsightly corners on rounded buttons in app manager | 02:02 |
lcuk | same occurs on device in h-a-m when you taphold on an app | 02:02 |
qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: Still not sure what purpose it serves in user/. I think it's more for apps like his PyGTKEditor | 02:02 |
lcuk | i dont think its a user package | 02:03 |
lcuk | it has no ui | 02:03 |
innociv | anyone know who'll carry the n900 in the US? | 02:03 |
VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, neither I, gonna send a follow up to the -ml with some thoughts about the marathon | 02:03 |
lcuk | it is right to be in extras | 02:03 |
lcuk | but not right as a user app | 02:03 |
lbt | VDVsx: any more testing tomorrow? | 02:03 |
* lbt popped in earlier but then had desktop issues :( | 02:04 | |
VDVsx | lcuk, so you only can install it via xterminal in your opinion ? | 02:04 |
VDVsx | lbt, you can do it at any time ;) | 02:04 |
javispedro | I agree with lcuk. | 02:04 |
lcuk | VDVsx, it makes sense | 02:04 |
qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: It is rather fitting that way, considering that its only usage is gonna be via the terminal... | 02:04 |
lcuk | i wish however there was a proper way to promote to -sdk or -tools | 02:05 |
lcuk | which would serve khertan better - since hes a developer | 02:05 |
qwerty12_N810 | lcuk: *shudder* | 02:05 |
GAN900 | VDVsx, yes. | 02:05 |
javispedro | yeah, we need a "stable" -tools repo | 02:05 |
lcuk | lol | 02:05 |
GAN900 | timeless_mbp, user/system | 02:05 |
javispedro | for packages that do not make sense in device but do in dev environments. | 02:05 |
lcuk | i would like to fully put a proper git there | 02:05 |
VDVsx | GAN900, and something like this: http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-testing_free_armel/python2.5-py2deb/0.5.1-2/ | 02:06 |
VDVsx | what do you think | 02:06 |
VDVsx | no GUI, no icon... | 02:06 |
VDVsx | you can use it only via terminal | 02:06 |
lcuk | end users might want to send .debs to each other! | 02:06 |
lcuk | awww damn, they couldnt install em anyway | 02:07 |
GAN900 | VDVsx, it's fine. | 02:07 |

qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: If it helps, I haven't thumbed it down... | 02:08 |
timeless_mbp | qwerty12_N810 / GAN900: if you can figure out why the engb icon isn't working in the .deb, write me an email (or patch) | 02:08 |

qwerty12_N810 | timeless_mbp: Patch what, exactly? I don't have the source package's debian/control :) | 02:09 |

lcuk | installed prettyy much everyhthing on page 1 | 02:21 |
qwerty12_N810 | No, blame VDVsx and his testing marathon | 02:21 |
lcuk | VDVsx, we need to find a faster way | 02:21 |
lcuk | and we need support on the device when we do | 02:22 |
GAN900 | It was all just a ploy to ruin everybody's N900. | 02:22 |
* qwerty12_N810 blames VDVsx for everything | 02:22 | |
lcuk | its just to disjointed to install and test and comment and rate apps | 02:22 |
lcuk | your strong pushing actually helped | 02:22 |
lcuk | but it was still a slog | 02:22 |
timeless_mbp | hrm, it looks like it might be less optified | 02:23 |
lcuk | "less optified" | 02:23 |
VDVsx | lcuk, yeah, people should do it voluntarily for the app that they use | 02:23 |
lcuk | VDVsx, its not that | 02:23 |
timeless_mbp | no | 02:23 |
lcuk | its doing it and redoing it and redoing it | 02:23 |
lcuk | the same thing | 02:23 |
lcuk | jaffa is right | 02:24 |
VDVsx | and perhaps we should establish a testing team, just to check the small things | 02:24 |
lcuk | he made an edge case bug fix | 02:24 |
VDVsx | lcuk, totally agreed | 02:24 |
lcuk | good idea! | 02:24 |
lcuk | VERY good idea | 02:24 |

lcuk | 10 friends per patch | 02:25 |

timeless_mbp | qwerty12_N810: um | 02:28 |
lcuk | the full log of todays testing session into the wiki | 02:28 |

innociv | n900 doesn't have a navigation app though does it? | 02:52 |
timeless_mbp | tel://5 in the browser launches the dialer | 02:52 |
lcuk | pupnik, dunno about calling but you can use a python script to send text messages and stuff | 02:52 |
timeless_mbp | tel:5 doesn't do the right thing , but ... oh well | 02:53 |

pupnik | ah cool | 02:53 |
practisevoodoo | has anyone got a copy of the merinstaller file? | 02:53 |
timeless_mbp | since the browser doesn't know anything about the dialer | 02:53 |
timeless_mbp | that means something is handling url dispatch | 02:53 |
lcuk | practisevoodoo, try asking in #mer | 02:53 |

innociv | which still seems expensive to me. :| | 03:06 |
GeneralAntilles | innociv, I think the web'n'walk plan with a cheap voice plan may work. | 03:08 |
GeneralAntilles | But a data-only plan in the US is not a workable proposition. | 03:08 |
innociv | web'n'walk? | 03:09 |
innociv | why isn't it workable? | 03:09 |
GeneralAntilles | It's their cheap data plan you can add onto feature phones. | 03:09 |
GeneralAntilles | Because nobody offers a reasonably priced data-only option. | 03:09 |
innociv | $40 is fairly reasonable. Would arther it be $30 | 03:10 |
innociv | But you look at iphone, that's $100 a month, completely unreasonable. | 03:10 |

ccooke | it's strange to not be wearing all black, though :-) | 03:21 |
lcuk | and VDVsx has the logs of the actual convo | 03:21 |

ccooke | book-style is nice | 03:30 |

yigal | to be honest as someone who likes the fact that there is no physical keyboard on the n800, and like so many who think a 3.5" screen is a joke for mobile computing I really can't care about the RX-51 | 07:26 |
yigal | tbh | 07:27 |
GeneralAntilles | yigal, yeah, I liked that about the N800, too. | 07:29 |
GeneralAntilles | I type faster on the N900 finger keyboard than the N800's. :) | 07:29 |
GeneralAntilles | You really don't notice the difference. | 07:29 |
GeneralAntilles | So, my little recommendation to you is that you actually try the N900 before you condemn it. | 07:30 |
GeneralAntilles | ~ping | 07:30 |
infobot | ~pong | 07:30 |
yigal | ha, I'm not condemning it as a device for others with slightly different needs, however I find the n800's screen to be too small and hope that in the next few months I'll be able to purchase a linux or linux made device with roughly 5"-7". I like to take notes in class with my n800, these are graduate classes in physics and the n800 serves me well with xournal, but something slightly larger is better for my needs. | 07:33 |

GeneralAntilles | tlir, mplayer can have many frontends | 07:38 |
tlir | GeneralAntilles: can you suggest me one that I can install on the n810? | 07:39 |
yigal | GeneralAntilles: almost too large | 07:39 |
tlir | KMplayer? | 07:39 |
dmj726 | yigal...just get a small (9" works for me) netbook and install ubuntu and a touchscreen. | 07:39 |
yigal | dmj726: ya, I'm waiting for the eee model after their initial 8.9" touchbook | 07:41 |
dmj726 | I know that you can add one yourself already | 07:42 |
dmj726 | (about 70 USD on ebay) | 07:42 |
*** frade has quit IRC | 07:42 | |
yigal | dmj726: but I think again this size range of 8-9" is a bit too large for my needs, I want something between 5-7" | 07:42 |
yigal | and it's all a matter of $ for that size range | 07:43 |
dmj726 | then again, one of the main reasons to have a netbook is the rather beefy hardware keyboard. | 07:43 |
dmj726 | Yes, you can write a novel on one. | 07:43 |
*** nirbheek has quit IRC | 07:43 | |
yigal | dmj726: right, but an external keyboard gives me the same usage out of a smaller device than a netbook | 07:44 |
dmj726 | maybe something else would be better for you then | 07:44 |
yigal | dmj726: yes, I already have a netbook, and an n800, it's in between these 2 size I'm looking for | 07:45 |
dmj726 | to me the ideal device combo is desktop, netbook, awesome linux smartphone | 07:45 |
dmj726 | I can live without the notebook and the MID. | 07:45 |
yigal | I guess it is halloween in the states at least, for the words I have just seen scrolled on #maemo | 07:46 |
yigal | dmj726: different needs for different folks, it's cool | 07:46 |
yigal | dmj726: it's so nice having nothing other than my tablet and the book I'm studying with me (+ cell phone of course) | 07:47 |
dmj726 | there are potential advantages to that | 07:51 |
dmj726 | of course it's nice to be able stuff a small laptop in one's pocket | 07:51 |
*** z4chh has joined #maemo | 07:52 | |

dmj726 | yes I can do that with my eeepc 900 | 07:52 |
yigal | except for the ticket price | 07:52 |
yigal | dmj726: lol | 07:52 |
dmj726 | how much? | 07:52 |
yigal | dmj726: cargo pants? | 07:52 |
yigal | dmj726: approx $700 | 07:52 |
yigal | dmj726: I can part with the $, but it will hurt | 07:53 |
tlir | KMplayer can't play subtitles | 07:53 |
dmj726 | It doesn't fit everywhere, but it fits in cargo pants and a couple of shorts in the upper pockets | 07:53 |
yigal | tlir: ~/.mplayer/config ? | 07:53 |
yigal | dmj726: figured, and you've plopped a touch screen on it, right? | 07:54 |

tlir | a sec | 07:54 |
dmj726 | no, but i was going to | 07:54 |
dmj726 | that money is earmarked for n900 at the moment | 07:54 |

*** tarek_ has quit IRC | 07:55 | |
dmj726 | I was a bit disappointed with the small screen size and the lack of usb host mode, but otherwise it looks very nice. | 07:55 |
dmj726 | To be honest I've been comparing it more to iphone and android. | 07:56 |
yigal | dmj726: those features are exactly the sort of thing I would want on a new portable device, in any event | 07:56 |
dmj726 | From a linux hacker's point of view it beats the living daylights out of the iphone. | 07:56 |
yigal | dmj726: android is such a disappointment imo | 07:57 |
yigal | so far at least | 07:57 |
yigal | if I hadn't had the n800 prior to the g1 I might have thought a bit better of the device, maybe | 07:58 |
dmj726 | I used to be excited about android | 07:58 |
dmj726 | before I saw that you actually could have better (aka maemo 5 on the n900) | 07:58 |
yigal | dmj726: I was so excited I'm using the 1st mass produced android phone, the excitement wore of very quickly for me | 07:59 |
dmj726 | what caused that? | 07:59 |
*** letusgothen_ has joined #maemo | 07:59 | |
yigal | little things, I can't install any program I want on the g1, no open office, no fortran, no eboard, the terminal is highly inferior | 08:00 |
yigal | no bash, without a chroot | 08:00 |
yigal | the chroot can't have graphical programs run in it | 08:00 |
yigal | random mail attachments can't be downloaded | 08:00 |
yigal | from the default mail clients, on and on and on | 08:01 |
dmj726 | eww | 08:01 |
yigal | it's rediculous how lame android is for a phone platform imo | 08:01 |
dmj726 | how do you think n900 compares to it? | 08:02 |
yigal | favorably, extremely, almost no comparison | 08:02 |
yigal | it's a far better platform. | 08:03 |
Analias | anyone know where the libhildonfm 2.28 source repository is kept? It's not a tagged version in the SVN repo and the gitorious repo for it only goes to 2.21. The version in the freemantle package repo is marked 2.28. | 08:03 |

anvith3 | i was interesed in developing something on the lines of text-to-speech | 09:44 |
dmj726 | that would be way cool anvith3 | 09:45 |
anvith3 | but dunno how difficult or easy it is going to be | 09:45 |
anvith3 | was looking around and foud that flite was orted but nothing else | 09:46 |
anvith3 | so dunno if its not very possible | 09:46 |
anvith3 | *ported | 09:46 |
dmj726 | if it works on debian, is not very cpu intensive, and can work with arm, it won't be hard. | 09:48 |
anvith3 | hmmm | 09:48 |
anvith3 | yeah it was developed for Ipaq and palm | 09:49 |
anvith3 | sources are available along with binaries for N770 | 09:49 |
anvith3 | arm and PC i386 | 09:49 |
anvith3 | i was thinking something on the lines of making a text-to-speech background app tat would assist blind users . u know something like click with the stylus and any characters are read out aloud | 09:51 |

anvith3 | i have downloaded it | 10:12 |

*** trbs2 has joined #maemo | 13:41 | |
Jaffa | homeasvs_: The Diablo SDK is not an emulator, nor a full-blown environment of the device. It contains the necessary parts to develop applications. | 13:42 |
homeasvs_ | Jaffa, so it's normal not to be able to install applications, or have applets ? | 13:42 |
Jaffa | homeasvs_: You can install community-written ones, or write your own. | 13:43 |
ccooke | Morning, all | 13:44 |
homeasvs_ | Jaffa, browser, same story ? scratchbox doesn't have a browser that can be installed ? | 13:45 |
Jaffa | homeasvs_: correct. | 13:45 |
derf | homeasvs_: The scratchbox environment is pretty limited for testing anything specific to the Maemo environment. Expect to spend a lot of time testing on the actual device. | 13:45 |
Jaffa | homeasvs_: Well, it has *a* browser, but it's not the Nokia-provoided one | 13:45 |

Anwarboy11 | no the iphones utube app is good tho | 14:02 |
Anwarboy11 | i heard that n900 doesnt allow you to play the higher quality | 14:03 |
* RST38h suggests stopping to expect from scratchbox normal operation | 14:03 | |

*** Meizirkki has joined #maemo | 14:03 | |

Anwarboy11 | well anyway, don't you think somone should work on a dedicated youtube application for n900, which enables the higher bitrates | 14:04 |

Anwarboy11 | It was widely used in IBM PC compatible computers during the mid 1980s to early 1990s, starting when IBM first used it in the IBM PC/AT in 1984. | 14:43 |
RST38h | You need to know of 286 no more than you need to know of assembly language | 14:43 |
RST38h | Google? :) | 14:43 |
Anwarboy11 | wiki :) | 14:43 |
RST38h | Anyways, download Python for Windows and learn programming in it. | 14:43 |
Anwarboy11 | kk | 14:43 |
RST38h | It sounds like a good first step of the plan | 14:43 |
Anwarboy11 | yup | 14:44 |
Anwarboy11 | can python be coded in codeblocks | 14:45 |
derf | Soon we'll be dealing with kids whose _parents_ weren't alive in 1982. | 14:45 |
v2px | oh shit | 14:45 |
RST38h | Codeblocks is another concept you do not need to care at the moment | 14:46 |
*** kurtan1 has joined #maemo | 14:47 | |
RST38h | what you need to care about is Python for Windows and a good Python guide with examples | 14:47 |
RST38h | The remaining words you have found with google will make no sense at the moment and they should not | 14:47 |

pvanhoof | "<derf> Soon we'll be dealing with kids whose _parents_ weren't alive in 1982." Yeah, i was born in 1981 and if I would have wanted kids they'd now be about around 8 years old I guess. So that's just a few more years :) | 15:22 |
pvanhoof | The little geniuses might already be around hacking like the people we now call old-Amiga-farts used to when they were eight | 15:23 |
qwerty12_N900 | timeless: Gah, it's working here. I'll take a look in a few hours, after all, it is extras-devel :) | 15:23 |

pvanhoof | _Pete_, an old amiga fart? :) | 15:24 |
_Pete_ | yes | 15:24 |
* SpeedEvil saw an amiga once. | 15:24 | |
pvanhoof | Cool, I'm just a sleazy XT fart, telix, terminate, etc etc | 15:24 |
_Pete_ | copper is my friend | 15:24 |
pvanhoof | But Mod Tracker was great | 15:25 |
_Pete_ | and blitter | 15:25 |
qwerty12_N900 | Jaffa: Oh, crap, I forgot that promoting automatically adds an entry to downloads; I still have the chinook/diablo mentality where I think you have to create an entry manually. Thanks! | 15:25 |
* SpeedEvil went zx80, zx81, pcw8512, then I defected from the z80 to 808*, and went to an amstrad PC2386 (20MHz 386) | 15:25 | |
_Pete_ | and 68kcpu asm | 15:25 |
Jaffa | qwerty12_N900: No probs. | 15:25 |
SpeedEvil | err | 15:25 |
derf | Maybe you guys should've let him learn asm. Builds character. | 15:26 |
SpeedEvil | zx81, spectrum, pcw8512 | 15:26 |
SpeedEvil | derf: there are better ways. For example, roll some d6's. | 15:26 |
_Pete_ | pvanhoof: so I assume you know what those mean? | 15:26 |
qwerty12_N900 | Jaffa: Let me just multiply that thanks by 10. I forgot how painful it is to add a screenshot | 15:27 |
pvanhoof | _Pete_, I never really used an Amiga, I think those are chips right? | 15:27 |
pvanhoof | Blitter and Copper | 15:28 |
_Pete_ | pvanhoof: right enough | 15:28 |
pvanhoof | My dad was lame enough to go with XT, AT and later 386 before I bought my first p60. I never owned an Amiga :( | 15:29 |
_Pete_ | poor dad then :) | 15:29 |
_Pete_ | being one myself | 15:29 |
_Pete_ | cant say much more | 15:29 |
pvanhoof | Well, I was smart enough to learn myself pascal and later delphi, instead of listening to the strange basic guys :) | 15:30 |
_Pete_ | :) | 15:30 |
pvanhoof | And then 'this guy' installed linux on my machine | 15:30 |
_Pete_ | well | 15:30 |
_Pete_ | I was aged with C64/amiga | 15:30 |
pvanhoof | And from that point in time, it didn't matter anymore what hardware you had :) | 15:30 |

VDVsx | RST38h, mostly thanks to mikkov_ testing and suggestions ;) | 16:35 |
lcuk | wicked! i see the problem | 16:36 |

lcuk | this needs to be a widget lol | 16:36 |
RST38h | VDVsx: Care to check/vot: Speccy, fMSX, iNES, VGB, MG, ColEm? | 16:36 |
Jaffa | lcuk: I don't want my son to leave moobox running in the background and me come back to a dead tablet :-p | 16:36 |
RST38h | VDVsx: First two can be tested without any extra roms | 16:36 |
VDVsx | RST38h, need to flash first ;) | 16:37 |
Jaffa | lcuk: Given that you can subscribe to accelerometer events, it shouldn't need to do any parsing | 16:37 |
RST38h | Oh. Shit. | 16:37 |
RST38h | Sorry :) | 16:37 |
lcuk | jaffa of course, but if he leaves it in the foreground it will still drain | 16:37 |
Jaffa | RST38h: Sometimes iNES gets itself stuck (usually playing Super Mario and dying; I can't restart a game and it stays in a demo mode) | 16:37 |
RST38h | Jaffa: BTW, the subscription stuff does not seem to be active now | 16:37 |
lcuk | "accelerometer events" ? | 16:37 |
lcuk | there is a "moo!" event in the system? | 16:37 |
Jaffa | lcuk: Not if it listened for screen lock. | 16:37 |
* SpeedEvil lols. | 16:37 | |
RST38h | Jaffa: This sounds more like the bug with the game, so exiting iNES and getting back in should fix it | 16:38 |
SpeedEvil | The n900 keyboard is possibly more tactile than the speccy. | 16:38 |
javispedro | SpeedEvil: see, were trying to outcompete the iphone here. | 16:38 |
RST38h | Jaffa: Or "Reset" from the menu | 16:38 |
RST38h | SpeedEvil: Not really | 16:38 |
Jaffa | RST38h: Reset didn't. It felt like a keyboard input issue, but that's just a guess. | 16:38 |
SpeedEvil | RST38h: well - the zx81 certainly. | 16:38 |
javispedro | at least it's more tacticle | 16:38 |
javispedro | than that, yes :) | 16:38 |
javispedro | you read my mind :) | 16:38 |
Jaffa | lcuk: Anyway, you can get notified about drastic changes in orientation, that would be sufficient for moobox :-p | 16:38 |
lcuk | moobox uses complex equations to dynamically simulate the high resolution moobox implementation | 16:39 |
lcuk | anytihng else just feels wrong imho | 16:39 |
VDVsx | lol removed the bat and it's working again, no need to flash | 16:39 |
RST38h | Jaffa: Sounds pretty weird, given how insulated Maemo input code is from the game itself | 16:39 |
lcuk | ok, is the code somewhere | 16:39 |
RST38h | Jaffa: That is the original Mario World 1? | 16:40 |
Jaffa | RST38h: Super Mario Bros | 16:40 |
* Jaffa will do some more testing and then thumb iNES up. | 16:40 | |
RST38h | Ok, I will play it for a while, let us see what is going on | 16:40 |

VDVsx | RST38h, About your emus, I would like to see a title screen with a button, instead the file manager, looks more professional IMO ;) | 16:41 |

lcuk | ok moobox uses a 200ms callback | 16:43 |
RST38h | Some nicer about screen would be nice, I guess | 16:43 |
lcuk | can you pause/restart items added with g_timeout_add ( | 16:44 |
lcuk | or can he just check a flag when it fires | 16:44 |
javispedro | delete and readd them | 16:44 |
lcuk | and if out of focus leave the rest of the function | 16:44 |
javispedro | nope, it would be better to remove the timer | 16:44 |

lcuk | lemme just find oyu a link you are better discussing with like minded folks | 17:08 |
lcuk | ewww ports | 17:08 |
VDVsx | zaheer_, you probably can do it with Qt-webkit | 17:08 |
VDVsx | zaheerm, ^ | 17:08 |
zaheerm | i think i'm gonna convert the htmls into some rich set of fremantle widgets and text views | 17:08 |
zaheerm | VDVsx, i don't want to use qt, more of a gtk man myself | 17:09 |
zaheerm | VDVsx, but yah it's an idea | 17:09 |
*** GiantTalkingCow has quit IRC | 17:09 | |
lcuk | just make the app in gtk then | 17:09 |
VDVsx | zaheerm, GTK-webit ? | 17:09 |
lcuk | why does it have to remain html | 17:09 |
javispedro | but isn't the issue the fact that basically hildon desktop widgets can't pan? | 17:09 |
zaheerm | yah i'm gonna gtk-ify it | 17:09 |
zaheerm | javispedro, not making a desktop widget | 17:10 |
lcuk | javispedro, widgets on the desktop cant | 17:10 |
lcuk | but widgets embedded in apps can do what they like | 17:10 |
lcuk | the desktop is a special case subset of what a normal GTK widget is capable of | 17:10 |
zaheerm | lcuk, yah i'm gonna convert the html to text views to start with | 17:10 |
lcuk | and gtk widgets have panned for years before the new desktop arrived | 17:10 |
javispedro | then the issue is? doesn't webkit-eal work? | 17:10 |
lcuk | does it work or is it good | 17:10 |

lcuk | zaheerm what html requirements do you have | 17:13 |
javispedro | or wait for the Nokia WRT | 17:13 |
lcuk | is it just a quick layout you need it for | 17:13 |

romaxa | http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/geolocation/ - tested with this page, seems to works fine | 17:16 |
lcuk | javispedro, if an app wanted to operate only when it was topmost, it would listen for the "window-state-event" event and check its topmost, right? | 17:19 |
*** shdb has quit IRC | 17:19 | |

sp3000 | depends on how heavy ...oh | 17:21 |
javispedro | none of my apps do that currently. | 17:21 |
qwerty12_N900 | Fill in the blanks :) | 17:21 |
lcuk | and im guessing you are running at more than 3% idle | 17:21 |
javispedro | yep. | 17:21 |
* lcuk nods | 17:21 | |
javispedro | it would break the nice presentation urho did while showing mario running composited :) | 17:22 |
lcuk | i know | 17:22 |
lcuk | thats the problem moobox has | 17:22 |
lcuk | and it got seriously bashed for the same problem | 17:22 |
javispedro | interesting issue. | 17:23 |
lcuk | now, moobox is about as simple an app as possible, it would be nice to fix it up and show it as its meant to work | 17:23 |
lcuk | so we can point developers to an app in extras which is understandable | 17:23 |
lbt | qwerty12_N900 has the right design | 17:23 |
lcuk | and follows the guidelines | 17:24 |
RST38h | back | 17:24 |
javispedro | i'm not so happy with the idea of apps pausing when going to the background | 17:24 |
javispedro | why are we multitasking for then. | 17:24 |
lcuk | for some apps its right | 17:25 |
lcuk | for most, infact its right | 17:25 |
RST38h | javis: for games, I want it to pause when I leave it | 17:25 |
lbt | javispedro we should notify them of their presentational state | 17:25 |
lcuk | ok, can we have a brainstorm on what could happen here | 17:25 |
lcuk | http://maemo.org/packages/source/view/fremantle_extras-devel_free_source/moobox/0.1/ | 17:25 |
lbt | front/composite/hidden | 17:25 |
RST38h | javis: having said that, I can switch it off, with a command line option, but always do sleep-on-focus-out by default | 17:25 |
lcuk | and possible put some patches towards the dev to help him | 17:25 |
qwerty12_N900 | lcuk: I wasn't lying: "is-topmost" is a property of a HildonWindow... | 17:26 |
lcuk | qwerty12_N900, but how is that implemented, can you make the 10 line patch? is that possible? | 17:26 |
*** b-man17 has quit IRC | 17:26 | |
*** vasily_pupkin has quit IRC | 17:27 | |
qwerty12_N900 | lcuk: you use notify::property signal to check for changes to a property | 17:27 |
RST38h | You are complicating things. | 17:28 |
javispedro | also, SDL has the 10ms timer always ticking in. The only way to power save in a SDL app is to just shut it down | 17:28 |
RST38h | Checking for focus-in/focus-out events is sufficient | 17:28 |

lcuk | javispedro, its just being busy when its not needed | 17:30 |
lcuk | some apps want it | 17:30 |
lcuk | others dont | 17:30 |
javispedro | well, I wouldn't expect the calendar app to use CPU when idle. | 17:30 |
lcuk | the one i expect to use cpu is the clock | 17:30 |
javispedro | but I would expect the browser to do that while showing a flash laden page. | 17:30 |
lcuk | which doesnt ;) | 17:30 |
RST38h | lcuk: everything based on EMULib, with source code released for ColEm, at least. The problem is, the latest source code has nto been released yet | 17:31 |

*** TeringTuby has joined #maemo | 17:31 | |
RST38h | So, I will just copy&paste from it, a moment | 17:31 |
lcuk | i thought you were talking about a normal gtk app | 17:31 |
javispedro | what are we going to do? pause youtube videos when the browser is not in the front? so much for multitasking -- then why don't shut down the apps and free memory while we're at it. | 17:31 |
lcuk | javispedro, no | 17:31 |
VDVsx | RST38h, where's the action button in colem ? | 17:32 |
lcuk | this isnt a fix everything and please dont go on the defensive | 17:32 |
lcuk | some apps make sense when they have focus | 17:32 |
RST38h | VDVsx: Q/W, or use screen cues | 17:32 |
lcuk | others dont | 17:32 |
javispedro | lcuk: sorry. | 17:32 |

RST38h | static gint GTKFocusHandler(GtkWidget *SrcWidget,GdkEventFocus *Event,gpointer Arg); | 17:32 |
lcuk | lol rst | 17:32 |
qwerty12_N900 | osso_hw_set_display_event_cb() is an alternative but only works when the display goes off, not if the display is on and it's out of focus | 17:32 |
RST38h | g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(HWnd),"focus_in_event",G_CALLBACK(GTKFocusHandler),0); | 17:32 |
RST38h | g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(HWnd),"focus_out_event",G_CALLBACK(GTKFocusHandler),0); | 17:32 |
RST38h | lcuk: In GTKFocusHandler you set a variable, like FocusOUT=1 | 17:33 |
lcuk | nahh ill just kill the timer | 17:33 |
lcuk | and reenable on focus in | 17:33 |
lcuk | thanks! | 17:33 |
RST38h | lcuk: Well, do you block in gkt loop now? | 17:34 |
lcuk | i dont do anything | 17:34 |
lcuk | its just got a simple gtk window and a 200ms callback timer | 17:34 |
lcuk | it just needs to enable/disable that timer | 17:34 |
RST38h | Well you sitll have gtk event loop don't you? | 17:34 |
lcuk | there is | 17:34 |
lcuk | but theres no visible code, its all in gtk_main | 17:35 |
RST38h | so, with focusout==1, you want to BLOCK in that loop | 17:35 |
RST38h | ok | 17:35 |
RST38h | then it probably blocks for you anyway | 17:35 |
lcuk | its really only got a picture | 17:35 |
lcuk | about the simplest gtk app ever | 17:35 |
javispedro | RST38h: since they use g_timeouts I guess the app blocks in glib event loop already | 17:35 |
lcuk | the callback just checks the orientation and if its flipped makes a moo noise | 17:35 |
VDVsx | RST38h, ok colem works, I could play "Chuck noris super kicks" game;) | 17:35 |
RST38h | javis: Ok. Because I do not normally block there | 17:35 |
RST38h | VDVsx: You can play just about ANY Coleco game on it :) | 17:36 |
javispedro | yeah, I don't either. | 17:36 |
RST38h | javis: But we are...mhm...special | 17:36 |
sp3000 | javispedro: video is special, somewhat -- otherwise stuff does get suspended after a bit | 17:36 |
sp3000 | even video doesn't paint when not visible iirc to save what it can | 17:36 |

lcuk | speccy is working as designed then! | 17:37 |
javispedro | sp3000: I've done that. I can get cpu usage down to 10% levels, but the difference between 10% CPU usage and 100% CPU usage in battery life is minimal. | 17:37 |

qwerty12_N900 | The game stops and shows the OGW screen | 17:41 |
javispedro | (basically, the osso-games-startup approach is "no multitasking". the app gets shutdown as soon as you try to switch out from it, saving state and returning to the launcher which is a Gtk+ app blocking on glib event loop) | 17:41 |

lcuk | javispedro, there are already plenty of events | 17:49 |
lcuk | it just needs a simple implementation to show how they should be done | 17:49 |
lcuk | focusin focusout works | 17:50 |
javispedro | yeah, I know about focusin focusout | 17:50 |
javispedro | but consider this: you stop drawing to the screen on focusout. | 17:50 |
lcuk | and adding new events to gtk would be hairy | 17:50 |
javispedro | the dashboard appears. your drawing is out of date. | 17:50 |
lcuk | of course | 17:50 |
lcuk | thats the same issue clock has | 17:50 |
javispedro | if dashboard appearing would signal libosso or something like that | 17:50 |
lcuk | it just takes refreshes on the apps schedule | 17:50 |
sp3000 | so you need "visible" | 17:50 |
lcuk | there is no right or wrong way | 17:51 |
javispedro | you could start the drawing loop again | 17:51 |
* sp3000 has no idea how this stuff works though :) | 17:51 | |
javispedro | i think I'll file a brainstorm about this. | 17:51 |
lcuk | javispedro, its app specific | 17:51 |
lcuk | the clock needs to update after passing the minute mark | 17:51 |
javispedro | its app specific how to handle the event | 17:51 |
lcuk | your app might be right to refresh all the time | 17:51 |
*** avs_ has joined #maemo | 17:52 | |
qwerty12 | andre__: In your opinion, where would be the best place to file a bug against xev (an N900-specific one)? | 17:52 |
lcuk | ive got 2 clocks in liqbase, one updates on the minute, the other updates on the second | 17:52 |
javispedro | yep. so, the clock app just draws time once when receiving the "dashboard-shown" signal, and sets up a 1 minute timer for redrawing it, cancelling the timer when the dashboard-hidden signal fires | 17:52 |
lcuk | nahhh | 17:53 |
lcuk | it keeps the timer always | 17:53 |
lcuk | doesnt actually need to listen to events | 17:53 |
lcuk | just needs to redraw every minute | 17:53 |
javispedro | a emu like mine starts drawing frames when the dashboard-shown signal fires, and stops drawing them when the dashboard-hidden signal fires. | 17:53 |
*** konttori has joined #maemo | 17:53 | |

javispedro | hi konttori. here discussing what to do when CPU hungry apps go to the background :) | 17:54 |
sp3000 | maybe they could get away with waking up 1/min, maybe not | 17:54 |
lcuk | some could | 17:54 |
lcuk | some cant | 17:54 |
sp3000 | I don't think they could get away with drawing 1/min when not visible :) | 17:54 |
lcuk | some dont need a wakeup at all | 17:54 |
javispedro | sp3000: 1 wakeup per minute is sane | 17:55 |
lcuk | if its not visible changing the label will not really do much | 17:55 |
lcuk | gtk should handle that internally | 17:55 |
* lcuk curses his network | 17:55 | |
javispedro | lcuk: the issue is not the CPU usage of just redrawing the label, but the power consumption of just waking the CPU, even if only runs a single instruction | 17:55 |
lcuk | even with wired connection for the last mile it keeps dropping :( | 17:55 |
andre__ | qwerty12, core -> x-server maybe? shrug :-P | 17:56 |
javispedro | (in the case of timers at least) | 17:56 |
lcuk | nahhh javispedro | 17:56 |
lcuk | timers themselves and a little bit of time arent bad | 17:56 |
qwerty12 | andre__: Thanks, not sure myself, but now I can blame you. Muahahahaha :p | 17:56 |
lcuk | its havign to render a whole screen afterwards | 17:56 |
javispedro | not sure, but then I haven't measured that :) | 17:56 |
andre__ | qwerty12, no problem. feel free to explicitly mention this ;-) | 17:56 |
lcuk | i was looking with powertop and stuff | 17:56 |
javispedro | powertop measures wakeups, not usage | 17:57 |
lcuk | it measures lots of things | 17:57 |
javispedro | ah. | 17:57 |
lcuk | just run it once | 17:57 |
javispedro | sorry, talking about the years old version I have here :) | 17:57 |
lcuk | its amazing - i would want it running all the time actually | 17:57 |
lcuk | but i cant get it to do anything other than a sleep 12, check 30 | 17:57 |

lcuk | why did we move away from wired nets | 17:59 |

*** ferdna has joined #maemo | 19:35 | |
SpeedEvil | Why would you have fans and hard drives? | 19:36 |
ali12341 | don't ask me, i just fix them | 19:37 |
ali12341 | the harddrives because for some reason you just have to have every movie ever made on tap | 19:37 |
ali12341 | and fans because without ventilation it tends to catch fire | 19:37 |

*** trofi has joined #maemo | 19:40 | |
dirk2 | Stskeeps: What?? ctrl-shift-x is sufficent to get the cursor? | 19:41 |
dirk2 | Stskeeps: I have only read a lot of mails speculating how to get the cursor, but not this easy solution yet | 19:41 |
* dirk2 has to test this asap! | 19:42 | |
Stskeeps | dirk2: cut out the libmatchbox2 thing, recompile it and hildon desktop.. and ctrl-shift-x starts xterm and it shows cursor | 19:44 |
javispedro | RST38h: btw, do you remember getting a black screen in openttd while trying scaled modes? | 19:44 |
Stskeeps | it acts like that on mer at least | 19:44 |

GeneralAntilles | It's fun having guests who shut the windows when it's 55°F out to turn the AC on to max. | 19:46 |
javispedro | RST38h: So, I didn't solve it I guess? :( | 19:46 |
RST38h | javis: I have not tried it in a while, as it is kinda disruptive | 19:46 |
RST38h | but I would remove extra modes from the list, no need to keep them there | 19:46 |
javispedro | I've removed the fullscreen checkbox from there, and now switching modes toggles fullscreen. | 19:47 |
javispedro | and the default in fremantle is to start scaled | 19:47 |
SpeedEvil | GeneralAntilles: True penguins. | 19:47 |
RST38h | yea | 19:47 |
SpeedEvil | (though my house is at the moment at 55F) | 19:48 |
wazd | RST38h: I can place hairdryer in front of the motherboard :D | 19:48 |
RST38h | wazd: in fact this is how they test consumer devices in China | 19:49 |

* RST38h isn't joking | 19:49 | |
lcuk | :( | 19:49 |
mezcalero | what i did manage with my bricked n900 however is that i got it to show those kitt-like moving dots while booting. but after 2s it powered itself off again | 19:49 |
mezcalero | anyone has an idea what i can do to make it boot on after showing those KITT dots? | 19:50 |
lcuk | it sounds battery related | 19:50 |

mezcalero | lcuk: no difference | 19:51 |
RST38h | wazd: got down to -37 just 2 years ago | 19:51 |
wazd | RST38h: we were testing OMWeather, sorry for that :) | 19:52 |
RST38h | wazd: had to bring car for repair as some wire snapped from the cold, inside the left front door | 19:52 |
lcuk | :S mezcalero | 19:52 |
RST38h | and 1-2 weeks at -22 is normal, so I do not see where you got the -10 figure from =) | 19:53 |
wazd | meh, atom motherboard costs 80$, BB costs 150$ :( | 19:53 |
RST38h | of course | 19:53 |
wazd | what's the point of BB then? :) | 19:53 |
RST38h | and atom warms up itself =) | 19:53 |
RST38h | wazd: coolness factor, same as pandora :) | 19:54 |
RST38h | for a carputer I would go with the atom though | 19:54 |
GeneralAntilles | Somebody want to test a quick bug for me? | 19:54 |
GeneralAntilles | Open up a new SMS. | 19:54 |
wazd | RST38h: then it's better to build x86 carputer I guess | 19:54 |
mezcalero | anyone has another idea how to unbrick my n900? | 19:54 |
wazd | mezcalero: unbrick my heart, baby let me be :D | 19:55 |
RST38h | wazd: yea, put linux on an sd card and you are done | 19:55 |

RST38h | wazd: yea, it is standby mode afaik | 19:59 |
RST38h | wazd: just keep it on standby all the time | 19:59 |
qwerty12 | Funnily enough, further presses of the degree symbol only result in it taking the space of one character | 19:59 |
* pupnik is in standby mode | 19:59 | |
RST38h | wazd: make it go into hibernation when power gets very low, that will add a few seconds on the next startup | 19:59 |
wazd | RST38h: hm, that's an idea :) | 19:59 |
RST38h | wazd: also, make sure your / is readonly | 19:59 |
RST38h | wazd: there is a way to set it up this way. this reduces startup time | 20:00 |
RST38h | wazd: if you do not need networking in your csrputer, get rid of it (in the kernel and elsewhere), this will save you boot time | 20:00 |
SpeedEvil | wazd: plus - you don't need instant on | 20:02 |
SpeedEvil | wazd: you want on when door is starting to be unlocked | 20:03 |
SpeedEvil | wazd: which gives you a good 5-10s. | 20:03 |

RST38h | qwerty: Acknowledged | 20:56 |
*** ad-n770 has quit IRC | 20:56 | |
konttori | so, only they should promote it? | 20:56 |
RST38h | Yep | 20:56 |
konttori | ok | 20:57 |
VDVsx | 33(m5) Vs 490(m4), any bet when m5 will pass m4 in number of apps ? :) | 20:57 |
konttori | ok, asekd on canola channel | 20:57 |
qwerty12_N900 | Depends on which repos you are looking at, vdvsx... | 20:57 |
konttori | we really need more apps to extras proper | 20:57 |
GeneralAntilles | Ah, konttori | 20:58 |
GeneralAntilles | Do you want a Maemo Community cloak? | 20:58 |
VDVsx | qwerty12_N900, maemo.org downloads | 20:58 |
konttori | basically we have agreed that once we have over 25 good apps in there, we will enable extras on the device by default | 20:58 |
VDVsx | qwerty12_N900, i.e Extras | 20:58 |
konttori | and I would really consider canola2 as one of them | 20:58 |
RST38h | konttori: you should lower threshold from 10 to 3-5 | 20:58 |
konttori | you mean votes? | 20:58 |
GeneralAntilles | konttori, well, we have 32. :) | 20:58 |
qwerty12_N900 | vdvsx: Will take a while, then... | 20:59 |

*** hally has joined #maemo | 20:59 | |
GeneralAntilles | konttori, send INdT more RX-51s. :P | 20:59 |
RST38h | konttori: And you should talk to whoever at Nokia is responsible about the web site to FIX it. If this requires doing away with Midgard, do so | 20:59 |
RST38h | konttori: The current submission/promotion web interface is pretty much non-functional, people wait for minutes just to register their votes | 21:00 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, that's not Nokia's job. :) | 21:00 |
GeneralAntilles | https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5818 | 21:00 |
RST38h | General: Apparently, it is | 21:00 |
GeneralAntilles | Well, adding servers is | 21:00 |
VDVsx | konttori, btw, canola has some issues in fremantle (lack of input methods and random crashes), afaik | 21:00 |
GeneralAntilles | But UI stuff on the website is not. | 21:00 |
RST38h | No, no adding servers. | 21:00 |
GeneralAntilles | So don't bother konttori about it. :) | 21:00 |
RST38h | General: Apparently the backend is badly broken | 21:00 |
GeneralAntilles | tekojo is the one who handles .org infra | 21:00 |
lcuk | RST38h, please just leave the thing at 10 votes | 21:00 |
GeneralAntilles | and it's being worked on. | 21:00 |
lcuk | id rather push for carrying over some | 21:00 |
RST38h | General: Yea, I will talk to tekojo about it because it has got rather ridiculous | 21:01 |
RST38h | lcuk: Why 10 though? | 21:01 |
lcuk | this initial hump and minimum check is imho required, but once an app reaches that it should be simple to update | 21:01 |
* RST38h agrees with lcuk | 21:01 | |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, why are you going to talk to him? | 21:01 |
*** trofi_ has quit IRC | 21:01 | |
GeneralAntilles | Why waste his time having him explain it to you? | 21:01 |
lcuk | we detected a good bunch of normal things wrong with apps | 21:01 |
GeneralAntilles | See the bug link I've provided. | 21:01 |
lcuk | mostly they are simple enough to cure | 21:02 |
RST38h | General: Because it literally takes up to 5 minutes to vote for a package | 21:02 |
VDVsx | lcuk ++ | 21:02 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, do you think he doesn't know that? | 21:02 |

RST38h | General: I do not know | 21:02 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, then follow my link. | 21:02 |
lcuk | VDVsx, we must work out the difference between an app update and a major change | 21:02 |
RST38h | General: Ok, the bug is titled We Need Servers. Do we really need servers? Or maybe we need to implement the backend correctly? | 21:02 |
*** igagis_ has joined #maemo | 21:02 | |

konttori | I complained about that to quim on friday | 21:03 |
lcuk | we had quite a lot to say yesterday about your theramin | 21:03 |
igagis_ | Hi | 21:03 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, we're not dropping Midgard. :) | 21:03 |
javispedro | RST38h: throwing hardware to the problem is an acceptable workaround, at least as long as we can. | 21:03 |
RST38h | General: Because I am currently seeing that 3-5 uers are ENOUGH to kill this sorry excuse for a website | 21:03 |
VDVsx | lcuk, please suggest that in the marathon thread (-devel) | 21:03 |
igagis_ | lcuk: there was a testing marathon I heard | 21:03 |
lcuk | RST38h, you only see one part | 21:03 |

GeneralAntilles | RST38h, it's way more than 3 people. :) | 21:04 |
lcuk | i would have to answer lots of the questions there | 21:04 |
RST38h | lcuk: Saturday evenuing? :) | 21:04 |
javispedro | i see that the slowdowns are clearly related to autobuilder activity | 21:04 |
lcuk | please bring it up yourself | 21:04 |
konttori | what I would want to have on the vote is that there would be a separate check needed for all applets and plugins that state that they don't mess up users use-time. | 21:04 |
RST38h | general: the voting ui has been used by at most 5 people | 21:04 |
javispedro | or package import processes, etc. | 21:04 |
konttori | it's so easy do make a plugin that destroys use-time | 21:04 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, stop being silly. | 21:04 |

*** wszyscy is now known as shpaq | 21:05 | |
RST38h | General: How many users are using the site at one time? Like saturday evening? | 21:05 |
lcuk | the package interface is all new code | 21:05 |
lcuk | perhaps the database design could do with a rejig | 21:05 |
*** eichi has quit IRC | 21:05 | |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, last number I heard was in the 10s-100s of thousands range. | 21:05 |
RST38h | General: If the number is relatively small, can we at least supplant Midgard by a few PHP scripts written on the side, to make the voting/packaging UI responsive? | 21:06 |
GeneralAntilles | It's not small. :) | 21:06 |
RST38h | General: Is that at one time or per day? | 21:06 |

*** rkirti has joined #maemo | 21:08 | |
RST38h | If it is 10k-100k users accessing the site at each moment, where they all come from? | 21:08 |
RST38h | If it is 10k-100k per day, then why is the site so slow and no amount of extra hardware makes it faster | 21:08 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, the N900 announcement. | 21:08 |
RST38h | Hmm...But won't these guys be mainly hitting static content? | 21:08 |
lcuk | RST38h, we dont know the backend layout, but i would ask questions like, is garage on the main server, does the git stuff get tied in with it, the downloads and planet and packages and everything from many sources | 21:08 |
GeneralAntilles | We've got the same hardware running the same software we had 6 months ago. | 21:08 |
lcuk | it doesnt take users to make it busy, it takes operations and functions | 21:08 |
RST38h | javis: Not yet, will try in a second | 21:08 |
GeneralAntilles | Response times have gone way up. | 21:09 |
GeneralAntilles | Clearly the number of hits is the cause. | 21:09 |
RST38h | lcuk: yep | 21:09 |
RST38h | General: There amy be a few other causes | 21:09 |
qwerty12_N900 | RST38h: Wait for the new servers to come before passing judgement on whether new servers will help or not | 21:09 |
RST38h | General: db indices gettng too large for example | 21:09 |
lcuk | even simple things as a totally fragmented hd | 21:10 |
RST38h | Ok, openttd | 21:10 |
RST38h | lcuk: Well, that thing is running on top of a db, relational dbs have got a few funky features on their own ;) | 21:10 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, they're not using FAT32. <_< | 21:10 |
lcuk | GeneralAntilles, filesystems of all types get fragmented. | 21:11 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, real filesystems manage it at the FS level. | 21:11 |
GeneralAntilles | This isn't Windows 98 | 21:11 |
GeneralAntilles | Your Windows experience really isn't particularly relevant here. | 21:11 |
Stskeeps | i'm with lcuk on this one. | 21:12 |
Stskeeps | fragmentation will happen | 21:12 |
RST38h | lcuk is right, fragmentation happens everywhere | 21:12 |
GeneralAntilles | That's not what I'm arguing. | 21:12 |
* javispedro was planning to show the e2fsck results of a volume he has with 60% fragmented blocks, but e2fsck detected "inconsistencies". | 21:13 | |
GeneralAntilles | You really think the reason http://maemo.org is slow is because of fs fragmentation? :) | 21:13 |
Stskeeps | no, its cos of overloaded servers | 21:13 |
RST38h | javis: ok, openttd runs, opens in unzoomed mode | 21:14 |
RST38h | javis: whatdoipress? | 21:14 |
javispedro | probably because of previous data, defaults only apply if no .games/openttd folder | 21:14 |
* VDVsx thinks overloaded servers isn't the only reason for the slowness | 21:14 | |
javispedro | try to switch to windowed scaled | 21:14 |
RST38h | both scaled windowed and scaled fullscreen work | 21:15 |
*** SpeedEvil has quit IRC | 21:15 | |
javispedro | uh. | 21:15 |
GeneralAntilles | Stskeeps, exactly my point. :) | 21:15 |
RST38h | World Generation dialog is still too high | 21:15 |
javispedro | it should draw the mouse cursor. try to guess if the upper left quarter is refreshing faster | 21:16 |
RST38h | Suggesting to lay smaller items out into two columns | 21:16 |
javispedro | RST38h: this is a botched build, don't use it to save your game | 21:16 |
* VDVsx notices that next sprint meeting in on the next Tuesday o_0 | 21:16 | |
RST38h | javis: update speed feels about the same | 21:16 |
javispedro | duh. | 21:16 |
javispedro | so inserting the UpdateRects call makes the screen go black. | 21:16 |
RST38h | hmmm | 21:17 |

GeneralAntilles | Depends on how you define support. | 21:25 |
GeneralAntilles | They've worked hard to get TI/ImagTech to release PowerVR drivers for N8x0 devices | 21:26 |
*** letusgothen__ has joined #maemo | 21:26 | |
GeneralAntilles | they've relicensed their close-source components for redistribution | 21:26 |

GeneralAntilles | It's not, however, an officially endorsed upgrade path. | 21:26 |
*** tkharju has joined #maemo | 21:26 | |
kpel | GeneralAntilles: ok thanks | 21:27 |
javispedro | 3d drivers! where! | 21:27 |
RST38h | there is no officially endorsed upgrade path so the question is kinda academic :) | 21:27 |
kpel | so basically whoever buys a nokia tablet is officially discouraged from upgrading the software? | 21:27 |
GeneralAntilles | Er | 21:28 |
GeneralAntilles | They're not officially anything | 21:28 |
GeneralAntilles | OS2008 is just the end of official support for the N8x0 series. | 21:28 |
kpel | I quite liked OS2007 and OS2008 releases. It's s shame there is on official support. Not that I knew that. I upgraded to OS2008 assuming that there is support since the nokia.com site sent me to maemo.org for software upgrades. | 21:29 |

GeneralAntilles | kpel, erm, what? | 21:30 |
GeneralAntilles | kpel, I'm afraid you may have misinterpreted what I said. | 21:31 |
GeneralAntilles | OS2008 was an official release for the N800 and N810 | 21:31 |
kpel | ok, so that was officially supported then | 21:31 |
GeneralAntilles | There will be no official release of Maemo 5 for the N800 and N810. | 21:31 |

*** leandroal has quit IRC | 21:33 | |
kynky | maemo 5 need certain min hardware requirements ? | 21:33 |
kpel | I don't see this as a problem specific to the MAemo5 upgrade. It's more of a product support issue. After two years N800 is officially dead :( | 21:33 |
GeneralAntilles | kpel, such are the vagaries of the mobile market | 21:33 |
kpel | GeneralAntilles: how true | 21:34 |
GeneralAntilles | Hardware moves a LOT faster in mobile devices than PCs | 21:34 |
javispedro | and after a year N900 will be dead. | 21:34 |
w00t | particularly when it's not "final generation" | 21:34 |
GeneralAntilles | Your performance margins are razor thin. | 21:34 |
GeneralAntilles | Maemo 4 was BARELY workable on OMAP2 hardware | 21:34 |
Andril | my n810 got like 20% of the usage - i thought Android was coming then Maemo just moved on without us :( | 21:34 |
GeneralAntilles | Maemo 5 simply isn't supportable in an official capacity. | 21:34 |
*** Kusk has joined #maemo | 21:34 | |
GeneralAntilles | Which is why Nokia has chosen to support Mer instead of releasing a backport. | 21:34 |
GeneralAntilles | It's not constrained by official requirements | 21:35 |
Andril | i personally think it's a bad move for Nokia | 21:35 |
konttori | Maemo 5 will be fully supported for a year | 21:35 |
konttori | it will have top notch support - much better than n8xx devices have had | 21:35 |
Andril | i don't think that they will sell as many n900's as they did with the n800 & n810 series | 21:35 |
*** qwerty12_N900 has joined #maemo | 21:35 | |
* RST38h hopes Maemo6 still runs on n900 though | 21:35 | |
RST38h | After all, it will be the same OMAP3 hardware, right? | 21:35 |
kynky | maemo6 will need cap screens i thought | 21:35 |
javispedro | RST38h: but it'll have multitouch stuff | 21:36 |
GeneralAntilles | Mer has much more viability for long-term support. | 21:36 |
Andril | you read my mind | 21:36 |
kpel | I don't see how a customer can be expected to keep spending £500 every 1-2 years for something that is not going to be supported in the long term | 21:36 |
GeneralAntilles | Andril, then you're deluded. | 21:36 |
RST38h | javis: Yes, but do you really see it *require* multitouch? As an option for some operations maybe... | 21:36 |
GeneralAntilles | kynky, the presentation said it will SUPPORT capacitive screens. | 21:36 |
javispedro | RST38h: yes. I can see them spreading all over the system interactions. | 21:36 |
GeneralAntilles | konttori, Nokia really needs to figure out how to support their hardware for a reasonable number of major releases. | 21:36 |
kynky | mobile phones subsidized on mobile phone contracts , makes it easier | 21:36 |
RST38h | javis: I fail to see many scenarios for them | 21:36 |
javispedro | this is a "me too" race, and having multitouch is currently "top notch". | 21:36 |
Andril | like i said personally - i know after i dump my n810 i won't go that path again | 21:36 |
Firebird | how does one test multitouch on a PC SDK... | 21:37 |
GeneralAntilles | konttori, you can't get away with the Symbian-style support with a Linux device. | 21:37 |
Stskeeps | i still think the best argument against MP only operation is the fact developers has to develop on a PC SDK.. | 21:37 |
javispedro | bloggers nearly count gimmicks you can do with multitouch while reviewing android phones... | 21:37 |
Andril | i got mine when it 1st came out and after the GPS trial - it started to collet dust - then came Diablo | 21:37 |

konttori | Hmm... I'll try to write a blog soon (need to clear the content) about what's coming your way this year for the update releases. | 21:39 |
konttori | we have some pretty nice stuff coming up. | 21:39 |
RST38h | konttori: Actually, I remembered Nokia guys going bonkers over "services" at the Summit (with the cocreation workshop etc) | 21:39 |
GeneralAntilles | konttori, N900 users need an upgrade path to Maemo 6. | 21:39 |
GeneralAntilles | Period. | 21:39 |
* javispedro 's has a record history for gadgets. every pda / nit he's bough so far has been EOL'd a month or so after buying it. | 21:39 | |
RST38h | konttori: And the idea of a perfect service Nokia can provide struck me | 21:39 |
w00t | javispedro: I do hope you're not buying an n900 | 21:39 |
w00t | ;) | 21:40 |
Stskeeps | GeneralAntilles: community backpots are far more sane if we get the whole infrastructure up for community ssu and all that jazz.. | 21:40 |

RST38h | konttori: Simply provide software updates (with a bit of new features thrown in periodically) to your existing devices! :) | 21:40 |
GeneralAntilles | Every blog post and every engadget article I see about Maemo stuff always has comments complaining about support duration. | 21:40 |

Stskeeps | qwerty12_N900: more like m6 on n900 hw.. it's both omap3, both GLES.. | 21:41 |
konttori | RST38h: well, we are doing that. And by existing devices, we mean n900 | 21:41 |
Stskeeps | i mean, that does help things quite a bit | 21:41 |

RST38h | konttori: Actually, I had Symbian devices and N8x0 as well in mind | 21:41 |

sp3000 | how does one add an avatar on maemo.org | 21:41 |
lcuk | sp3000, rename yourself lardman | 21:41 |
RST38h | konttori: I.e. keep existing users hooked up, like Apple does by releasing updates to their first iPhones even now | 21:42 |
Stskeeps | qwerty12_N900: and with the various ways around legal issues we came up with in Mer, any person doing the m6 thing would have great conditions for doing so | 21:42 |
Stskeeps | so, from a typical linux user POV, it isn't a bad situation. | 21:42 |
konttori | RST38h: of symbian I really cannot say anything | 21:42 |
kynky | RST38h, arent they paid updates ? | 21:42 |
javispedro | RST38h: the Apple dream of simultaneous support can't be prolonged forever | 21:42 |
RST38h | kynky: Possibly, like a subscription | 21:42 |
RST38h | javis: Of course | 21:42 |

Jaffa | javispedro: Imagine a LOGO port? (altho' /education would be a candidate) Or a visual programming language. Or a variety of other tools. | 21:59 |
Jaffa | Being end-user suitable doesn't mean "lowest common denominator". | 22:00 |
javispedro | yep, I see your point. | 22:00 |
* Jaffa offs to watch Micro Men ("Syntax Era" was a much better name) | 22:00 | |
Jaffa | Oh, and that reminds me - RST38h: Symbian's based on EPOC, not RISC OS. Although, without RISC OS there'd be no ARM, so no EPOC, Symbian or Maemo. | 22:01 |

wazd | niqt_: what exactly are you looking for? | 22:56 |
VDVsx | RST38h, what did you changed in iNes ? | 22:56 |
VDVsx | RST38h, paste the changelog their, it's easy for the testers ;) | 22:56 |
VDVsx | niqt_, what do you need ? | 22:57 |
niqt_ | i'm in http://wiki.maemo.org/Fremantle_Developer_Device_Queue but i don't understand how i get N900 discount; which form to be filled in nokia forum? Where is real nokia mail? | 22:57 |
VDVsx | niqt_, wait for a e-mail from Nokia | 22:58 |
niqt_ | ok | 22:58 |
niqt_ | thanks | 22:58 |
VDVsx | niqt_, please that in mind that adding your name to that list doesn't means that you'll receive that e-mail | 22:59 |
niqt_ | ok... | 22:59 |
VDVsx | *please take | 22:59 |
niqt_ | usually how long after the email arrives | 23:00 |
VDVsx | niqt_, dunno | 23:00 |
niqt_ | :) | 23:01 |
*** hassanakevazir has quit IRC | 23:02 | |
RST38h | VDVsx: the changelog is already there =) | 23:04 |
Firebird | niqt_, if I recall, emails were only sent to those with 200+ karma | 23:04 |
RST38h | VDVsx: The only significant change is to the power-save code. All the new versions I have moved into -Testing today save power aggressively, you can lock the tablet and forget about them running | 23:05 |
RST38h | VDVsx: You can test this by running the device in development mode (the kbd backlight will indicate cpu activity) | 23:05 |
VDVsx | RST38h, ok, so no changed in UI and usability stuff ? | 23:06 |
RST38h | Otherwise, it is the same iNES. Well, the virtual keyboard in FamiBASIC is a bit bigger to server fingers better | 23:06 |
VDVsx | RST38h, testing iNes again ;) | 23:06 |
RST38h | Just install and enjoy it :) | 23:06 |
* VDVsx hits RST38h | 23:07 | |
RST38h | VGB 3.5.3 goes into Extras, VGB 3.5.4 goes into Extras-Testing (main change is powersave again) | 23:07 |
VDVsx | you forget to add the bugtracker field :( | 23:07 |
RST38h | This version has no bugtracker field, the next one will (it is already added to control) | 23:08 |
qwerty12_N900 | RST38h: If you don't want to enable RD-Mode, echo active > /sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/sleep_ind/state is quicker | 23:08 |
RST38h | So far, I am adding backtracker URL manually when editing Extras package record (check VGBA,iNES,SlideRule to see that) | 23:08 |
RST38h | qwerty: Oh, this enables the LEDs? =) | 23:09 |
RST38h | Thanks ! | 23:09 |
qwerty12_N900 | Yep | 23:09 |
qwerty12_N900 | I set it to inactive as the LEDs piss me off... | 23:09 |
RST38h | well having them on all the time is kinda creepy | 23:09 |
wazd | niqt_: this list is not connected with DDP | 23:10 |
wazd | niqt_: just wait for further instructions | 23:10 |

*** sge has joined #maemo | 23:15 | |
niqt_ | 23:18 | |

GeneralAntilles | The current receiver program doesn't do RDS, no. | 23:26 |
RST38h | General: Why such hatred towards a piece of plastic with few chunks of silicon? =) | 23:28 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, not the plastic, the next owner. :P | 23:28 |
RST38h | The next owner is probably going to be whoever grabs it from the dumpster before it is destroyed | 23:29 |
TomaszD | do you also get appalling audio quality with the fm radio? or is it just my device | 23:29 |
RST38h | TomaszD: Using headphones? | 23:29 |
TomaszD | rst38h doesn't matter | 23:29 |
TomaszD | I mean yes with headphones plugged in | 23:29 |
*** ralisi has joined #maemo | 23:30 | |

RST38h | Anyone knows if MPlayer package has been optified? | 23:31 |
qwerty12_N900 | rst38h: It has not | 23:32 |
RST38h | pity...will probably fill up my / :) | 23:33 |
TomaszD | rst38h I know, even with that knowledge it doesn't help | 23:33 |
TomaszD | maybe it has to be switched from local to dx mode or something | 23:34 |
RST38h | I would try turning off BT/WiFi, just to see what happens | 23:34 |
GeneralAntilles | RST38h, erm, Nokia's going to be recycling returned protos to more developers. :) | 23:34 |
lcuk | nice! http://tech.slashdot.org/story/09/11/01/2033242/Appeal-For-Commuter-GPS-Logs-To-Aid-Electric-Cars?art_pos=1 | 23:34 |
RST38h | General: Sounds like a better idea than I thought | 23:34 |
TomaszD | rst38h you can't turn bt off with running radio | 23:34 |
RST38h | TomaszD: Really? Heh =) | 23:35 |
lcuk | GeneralAntilles, cool but how do you know | 23:35 |
TomaszD | rst38h yep for some reason | 23:35 |
GeneralAntilles | lcuk, from paying attention to the Talk thread. | 23:35 |
TomaszD | but I doubt any interference takes place anyway | 23:35 |
TomaszD | bbl | 23:36 |
RST38h | Well it is the same chip | 23:36 |
GeneralAntilles | TomaszD, audio quality with both receiving and transmitting is great. | 23:36 |

*** tonikitoo has joined #maemo | 23:39 | |
tbf | GeneralAntilles: good news. would have been a shame if those protos just would get shredded. | 23:39 |
VDVsx | GeneralAntilles, well, if you return yours in Sep, dunno if Nokia will bother to loan it again :P | 23:42 |
EspadaV8_L | how do you ask nokia if you can loan a phone? | 23:43 |
lcuk | tbf, they wont be shredded, nor recycled, nokia is building a transformerseqs robot and it needs body parts | 23:43 |
lcuk | it will put down a layer of devices as a flat surface and move via selectively vibrating itself to hover just over the surface of whatever | 23:44 |
VDVsx | EspadaV8_L, ask for a loaned N900 ? | 23:45 |
qwerty12_N900 | lcuk: Oh, they moved on from dogs, then? | 23:45 |
lcuk | of course | 23:46 |
EspadaV8_L | VDVsx: yeah | 23:46 |
EspadaV8_L | i was able to get one through work, but do they loan them out to 'normal' people | 23:46 |
VDVsx | EspadaV8_L, yes | 23:46 |
VDVsx | special people :P | 23:47 |
EspadaV8_L | i'm special :-D | 23:47 |
VDVsx | EspadaV8_L, so you've already one, don't need other, right ? lol | 23:47 |
*** javispedro has joined #maemo | 23:47 | |

TomaszD | GeneralAntilles transmitting is fine here, receiving is awful | 23:49 |
GeneralAntilles | TomaszD, local interference? | 23:50 |
TomaszD | location-independent | 23:50 |
GeneralAntilles | Maybe the headphones you're using? | 23:50 |
TomaszD | I do have a device from a batch before the summit | 23:51 |
GeneralAntilles | As do I. | 23:51 |
GeneralAntilles | It works fine. | 23:51 |
TomaszD | hmm. no N900 label too? | 23:51 |
*** swc|666 has joined #maemo | 23:52 | |

*** hellwolf has quit IRC | 23:55 | |
TomaszD | vdvsx no, batch just before the summit | 23:56 |
TomaszD | and I think I know what the problem is | 23:56 |
TomaszD | the microphone on the headphones is active | 23:56 |
VDVsx | without the n900 label right ? | 23:57 |
TomaszD | can anyone check and just blow into the headset mic while the radio is on? | 23:57 |
TomaszD | vdvsx correct | 23:57 |
TomaszD | long story | 23:58 |
VDVsx | TomaszD, I've one of this too | 23:58 |
VDVsx | same for GeneralAntilles | 23:58 |
*** netvandal has quit IRC | 23:58 | |
EspadaV8_L | VDVsx: hmm, think i'll pass adding myself to the list, they all seem more needy than me | 23:59 |
TomaszD | so what the hell is wrong with mine... I'll try recording it this week and put it up online for you guys, I think noone believes me :P | 23:59 |
VDVsx | TomaszD, do you got noise or is other issue ? | 23:59 |
