GeneralAntilles | mza, better off porting the JVM | 00:00 |
realitygaps | qwerty12_N810: ive been using it to dl eastenders :) but streaming is a no go so far from my trials. got no place left on the device for an unoptified mplayer either anymore | 00:00 |

kynky | once the jvm ported, we get lots of potential extras :) | 00:00 |

zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, want to join forces | 00:01 |
qwerty12_N810 | realitygaps: Heh. :) Maybe try gstreamer-ffmpeg and see if they play in the default media player? :) | 00:02 |

realitygaps | zaheerm-lp: cool what can i do to enable that? | 00:02 |
zaheerm-lp | my plan for zoutube was to have iplayer support too | 00:02 |
kynky | that in extras-devel ? | 00:02 |
zaheerm-lp | kynky, yah it'll move to extras-testing when i push zoutube there | 00:03 |
timeless | jani: jalimo? | 00:03 |
jani | oh. so its that far already =) | 00:03 |

jani | timeless: something like that =) | 00:03 |
kynky | zaheerm-lp, sweet | 00:03 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, oh shit, doesn't it? | 00:03 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, actually i think it was the search that didnt work anymore, havent tried in a coupla days | 00:03 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, oh i fixed that :) | 00:03 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, oh cool ill grab a newer version then | 00:04 |
dmj726 | zaheerm-lp: any progress on zope? | 00:04 |
zaheerm-lp | latest version in extras-devel has that working, i broke it when adding gpodder integration | 00:04 |
*** waite has quit IRC | 00:04 | |
realitygaps | there is gpodder integration? | 00:04 |
mza | stupid question time... | 00:04 |
mza | when you take a picture, does to make a snapping noise? | 00:04 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, yep, select the menu on the video list (screen with thumbnails), and it allows you to subscribe to that list with gpodder | 00:04 |
mza | i hate that about my blackberry | 00:04 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, installing from devel right now... | 00:05 |
realitygaps | mza: mine just goes 'operation failed' when i try to take a pic :) | 00:05 |
mza | realitygaps, dont tell me that! | 00:05 |
zaheerm-lp | i am currently working on a nice way to have full screen video and the controls (play/pause + seekbar) | 00:05 |

realitygaps | mza: yeah me too, dont worry it is THAT device :) | 00:06 |
qwerty12_N810 | mza: Hehe, I remember patching my Sony Ericsson to remove that, too... But if you're in Silent mode, it doesn't make a noise | 00:06 |

zaheerm-lp | dmj726, or swipe from bottom to bring controls | 00:07 |

realitygaps | qwerty12_N810: is the fbreader in extras-devel with the volume switch page turn patch? | 00:11 |
zaheerm-lp | timeless, it works fine for me | 00:11 |
timeless | if one wants to setup an event (or recurrence) one doesn't usually want to manually add 7 to the date | 00:12 |
qwerty12_N810 | realitygaps: Nope, just the one on qwerty12.qole.org | 00:12 |
timeless | i searched and didn't find a calendar bug, but i'm sick/exhausted | 00:12 |
qwerty12_N810 | realitygaps: Not my work, so I can't just upload... | 00:12 |

zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, do you have python code to get iplayer programme details etc.? | 00:12 |
GeneralAntilles | timeless, which? | 00:13 |
*** ArSa_ has quit IRC | 00:13 | |
realitygaps | zaheerm-lp: nope ive been running get-iplayer and the cgi web interface in qoles chroot | 00:13 |
timeless | edgar: most calendar apps let you see a grid w/ a month of days | 00:13 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, the easy way not the right way | 00:13 |
timeless | so you can say "ah, a week from friday" by finding friday and clicking the box below it | 00:13 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, get-iplayer is perl right? | 00:13 |
realitygaps | yep afaik | 00:13 |
timeless | the calendar app has a month view | 00:13 |
zaheerm-lp | ok so will need a little translation | 00:13 |
timeless | but you can't use that from inside create event | 00:14 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, the iphone/ipod touch iplayer videos should be fine with the dsp codecs in gstreamer on the n900 | 00:14 |
*** BluesLee has quit IRC | 00:14 | |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, so the trick is to figure out the urls and handle the metadata | 00:15 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, i can watch them in the media player (occasionally they crash but could be a bad dl) but no stream.... | 00:15 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, i can run it and give you the error if you like | 00:15 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, please do | 00:15 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, as the web interface attempts to open the media player... give me a coupla minutes just finishing up testing amsn and chatting with the dev on #amsn | 00:16 |

*** Flyser_ has quit IRC | 00:16 | |
edgar2 | i see, you were pointing at the lack overview when deciding the date of an event | 00:16 |
timeless | edgar: again, it's also for picking an end date | 00:17 |
edgar2 | yeah, start date and end date | 00:17 |
timeless | if it were obly a one time event thing | 00:17 |
*** panaggio has quit IRC | 00:17 | |
edgar2 | very useful for creating recurring events | 00:17 |

qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: Wait until I send them a link to the Community Council Wiki page :p | 00:23 |
edgar2 | because that's when i don't. å ä ö gets recognized only after the event window has been created | 00:23 |

zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, how does it stream it? | 00:27 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, over rtmp or http? | 00:27 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, i think over http but im not sure | 00:27 |
zaheerm-lp | the mp4 would be http | 00:28 |
timeless | i think i broke image viewer | 00:28 |
zaheerm-lp | what is streaming it, get_iplayer or bbc? | 00:28 |
javispedro | ls | 00:28 |
VDVsx | -la | 00:28 |
javispedro | oh no, not stupid z-order again | 00:28 |
javispedro | =) | 00:28 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, get_iplayer is streaming it.. actually a browser error /var/tmp could not be saved because an unknown error occurred. | 00:28 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, must have got the mediaplayer error a different way | 00:29 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, ok not sure how get_iplayer works... | 00:29 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, get_iplayer has a web pvr interface so im trying to click in the browser to stream it out | 00:29 |
zaheerm-lp | just downloaded it to read | 00:29 |
GeneralAntilles | realitygaps, find yourself a UPnP server? | 00:29 |

*** benh has joined #maemo | 00:31 | |
realitygaps | GeneralAntilles: trying to stream live bbc tv (and recorded show streams) from the bbc iplayer website | 00:31 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, using the iplayer.cgi, commands like mplayer -cache 1024 "http://localhost/iplayer?ACTION=stream&PROGTYPES=livetv&PID=<PID>&MODES=flashnormal&OUTTYPE=nnn.flv" should work | 00:32 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, ok i see the --stream option that streams it to stdout, having a look at the code | 00:32 |
*** Vulcanis has joined #maemo | 00:32 | |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, so that should work also with gst-launch playbin uri="http://......." too | 00:32 |
GeneralAntilles | realitygaps, ah, nevermind. | 00:33 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, ok ill try that | 00:33 |

Shapeshifter | Venomrush: no, they say they are going to pick it up, and I don't see any pictures. | 00:35 |
zaheerm-lp | dmj726, they have geoip blocking | 00:35 |

qwerty12_N810 | dmj726: It's your fault for being so stingy with Hulu | 00:36 |

qwerty12_N810 | dmj726: So we have to be like that with iPlayer | 00:37 |
*** Kt_ has joined #maemo | 00:37 | |
dmj726 | Yeah...I never thought the whole geoip blocking made much actual sense. | 00:37 |
zaheerm-lp | openvpn you can use | 00:38 |
zaheerm-lp | iplayer is paid for by our tv licence feeds | 00:38 |
kynky | dmj726, bbc is funded by uk tv license, apparantly some ppl dont think non license payers should get to see the content | 00:38 |
Jaffa | dmj726: They don't claim it's secure; but it's enough to satisfy the rights holders. | 00:38 |
zaheerm-lp | yanks don't pay for it :) | 00:38 |
kynky | bbc has no adverts or product placement | 00:39 |
dmj726 | They're only promoting p2p | 00:39 |
Jaffa | kynky: Also, in many cases (Heroes, other imported TV shows, background music etc.) the BBC doesn't have the rights to make them available outside the UK. | 00:39 |
kynky | Jaffa, yep | 00:39 |
Jaffa | dmj726: No, they promote iPlayer (or Hulu, or whatever). That many people can get around it isn't the point. | 00:39 |
zaheerm-lp | Jaffa, btw are you the man behind the xml feeds at bleb ? | 00:39 |
dmj726 | note the wording *actual* sense...not legalese sense | 00:39 |
Jaffa | zaheerm-lp: I am. | 00:39 |
zaheerm-lp | Jaffa, cool, thx for the service! | 00:40 |
Jaffa | dmj726: It makes actual sense, because without it they wouldn't be able to do it. | 00:40 |
Jaffa | zaheerm-lp: np :) | 00:40 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, seem to be getting passed empty streams, im gonna try some other url options | 00:40 |
Jaffa | dmj726: It doesn't make *technical* sense, but makes *legalese* and *actual* sense :) | 00:40 |
kynky | legal world is a whole different kettle of fish to real world | 00:41 |
Jaffa | As is technical world :) | 00:41 |
dmj726 | I'm just saying that they're not blocking anyone. Lots of people in the states watch Dr Who...most through the only way they can, which is not iplayer or regular tv | 00:41 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, so yah looks like i have a way in python to get the iplayer streams | 00:41 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, so will give it a go this weekend | 00:42 |
Jaffa | dmj726: So, what would you suggest? No GeoIP and then a) no one in the UK would be able to watch Heroes on iPlayer and *everyone* in the world could watch Doctor Who directly? | 00:42 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, probably much easier, the get-iplayer way was just a quick hack | 00:42 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, but i'd still like to figure out why it isnt working :) | 00:42 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, mit licenced code too | 00:42 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, so do i want to know | 00:42 |
GeneralAntilles | dmj726, Netflix. ;) | 00:42 |
kynky | zaheerm, if your talking about python, maybe you could look a the work of the xbmc iplayer plugin, that wriien in python ? works really well | 00:42 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, i am sure we can fix it | 00:42 |
realitygaps | im gonna try the same streams on my laptop to check them b4 gst-launching | 00:43 |
Jaffa | dmj726: There's a difference between a perfect solution and a pragmatic one. They (and Hulu etc.) have gone for the pragmatic one. | 00:43 |
zaheerm-lp | kynky, you have a link to the code, i thought that was a wrapper arounf get-iplayer | 00:43 |
zaheerm-lp | realitygaps, try wget first yah :) | 00:43 |
dmj726 | I'm not saying it's possible for them to get around the current legal restrictions | 00:43 |
kynky | zaheerm-lp, i could be wrong but worth checking i guess | 00:43 |
dmj726 | but it's still silly | 00:43 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, yep thats my first thing to try | 00:43 |
realitygaps | zaheerm, just all the amsn testing left me out of batteries and cant find the damn usb cable | 00:44 |

Jaffa | dmj726: I'm not sure I disagree; but changing the business model of the syndicated and worldwide distribution TV industry isn't going to happen overnight (or, probably, that soon). | 00:44 |

Shapeshifter | But then again only few things were ever able to convince me. | 00:49 |
Shapeshifter | kynky: I was saying that I'm surprised that so many of them _are_ interested in it. | 00:49 |

kynky | droid kb really put me off, miht as well get the sex10 over that, also looks lke verizon have crippled the droid too much in usa | 00:51 |

dmj726 | CoreFusion-: ...what would be their high end? | 00:51 |
kynky | thought e-series was buisness | 00:52 |

Shapeshifter | mhhhh. if I remove the scratchbox dir there seem to be lots of symlinks to lots of stuff | 01:04 |
Shapeshifter | I can't just rm that. Will something break if I rm that stuff as root? | 01:04 |
Shapeshifter | or... how do I get rid of all that. | 01:04 |
javispedro | did you do /etc/init.d/scratchbox-core stop _before_ starting to rm things? | 01:05 |
javispedro | or sbox_ctl stop | 01:05 |
GeneralAntilles | Shapeshifter, if you just remove the scratchbox dir, bad things will happen. | 01:06 |

Shapeshifter | javispedro: but where do the scratchbox symlinks point to? They point at just about everything in my system. What, remount,ro and rm? how would I be able to rm from a ro partition? | 01:14 |
gouverneur | is similar to apt with --purge | 01:14 |
javispedro | Shapeshifter: of course, I did not consider you installed sbox to your $HOME | 01:14 |
Shapeshifter | gouverneur: right, I know how to use pacman. but I didn't install the maemo sdk using pacman obviously. | 01:14 |

Shapeshifter | but now there's a scratchbox in my homedir. But I think as cp -a also does -d, it should not follow symlinks, right? | 01:23 |
gouverneur | so scared? | 01:24 |
Jaffa | zerojay: Ovi is ridiculous. Hopefully most developers will focus on Extras (once the QA process improvements are implemented) | 01:24 |
Shapeshifter | -d is -d same as --no-dereference --preserve=links | 01:24 |

Shapeshifter | well... if I cp a symlink, the target wont be copied as well, right? | 02:40 |
*** SmilyOrg has quit IRC | 02:40 | |
Shapeshifter | but what about a du -sh? does du follow symlinks and add that to the total size? | 02:41 |
GeneralAntilles | It's Maemo + development stuff + documentation + cross compilation stuff | 02:41 |
*** korius_ has quit IRC | 02:41 | |

kalikianatoli | Shapeshifter, around 2gb is normal, depending on what you install it can be bigger | 02:41 |
kalikianatoli | hm... I think Thunar is trying to fool me: it says my 8gb sbox partition contains 21gb of data | 02:42 |
Shapeshifter | kalikianatoli: well, that's what I'm saying, I think it follows symlinks. | 02:43 |
Shapeshifter | not sure if du -sh does. And even more unsure if cp does follow them. I don't get it. | 02:43 |
Shapeshifter | [1] shapeshifter@Tachychineta> du -sh /home/shapeshifter/stuff/maemofinal | 02:43 |
Shapeshifter | 2.5G/home/shapeshifter/stuff/maemofinal | 02:43 |
kalikianatoli | that sounds like a normal size | 02:43 |
Shapeshifter | du -sh /mnt/space/maemo | 02:43 |
Shapeshifter | 3.7G/mnt/space/maemo | 02:43 |
kalikianatoli | your value might actually be correct | 02:43 |
kalikianatoli | let me check here | 02:44 |
Shapeshifter | but, the above is during a cp from the first to the second | 02:44 |
Shapeshifter | the cp is still going on | 02:44 |
Shapeshifter | and the target is already 3.7 | 02:44 |
Shapeshifter | while the source is 2.5 | 02:44 |
kalikianatoli | 4,5GB here with du -sh | 02:44 |
*** Xisdibik has joined #maemo | 02:45 | |
kalikianatoli | iirc a fresh copy of sbox was 1, something gb | 02:45 |
Shapeshifter | this is really weird. I did 'cp -R /home/shapeshifter/stuff/maemofinal /mnt/space/maemo' and now the target has 4.4G while the source has 2.5 | 02:45 |
Shapeshifter | I think I should have used cp -a | 02:45 |

*** BBNS has joined #maemo | 04:42 | |

thephilosopher | will we get the device before janury ? | 04:42 |

aep | thephilosopher: i dunno. would be interested too | 04:43 |
aep | amazon is $50 cheaper | 04:43 |
thephilosopher | actually 150 % cheaper compared to nokiausa | 04:44 |
aep | but 3 months waiting is not worth $50 | 04:44 |
aep | lol, huh? | 04:44 |
thephilosopher | ? | 04:44 |
aep | it says $600 | 04:44 |
aep | and nokiausa says $649 | 04:44 |

thephilosopher | ho yea | 04:45 |
thephilosopher | counted the mail-rebate | 04:45 |
aep | whatever rebate you have, i'm sure its not 150% | 04:45 |
aep | except math in your country works different | 04:45 |
microlith | if it were 150% cheaper, they'd be paying you | 04:46 |

dmj726 | http://www.forum.nokia.com/document/Get_started_with_Maemo_5/ in slide 4 the announcer pronounces GNOME like genome | 08:21 |
RST38h | And? | 08:21 |
dmj726 | first time I've heard it pronounced that way... | 08:22 |
dmj726 | as in ge as in gene, rather than G as in GNU | 08:22 |
dmj726 | or just silent | 08:22 |
RST38h | Maybe nobody told him how it is supposed to sound? =) | 08:23 |
dmj726 | normally I don't care that much about silent vs hard g but the soft g could be confusing | 08:23 |
dmj726 | her actually | 08:23 |
RST38h | Ahhha, Brin started wearing black turtlenecks Jobs-style | 08:23 |
dmj726 | I'm sure that it was a simple mistake of not having been told the pronunciation | 08:24 |
RST38h | And he is using Droid | 08:24 |
RST38h | Somebody send Brin an N900 =) | 08:24 |
luke-jr | dmj726: at least he didn't try to make it silent. | 08:25 |
luke-jr | pretty sure it's explicitly NOT supposed to be silent | 08:25 |
dmj726 | yeah, though a silent g would actually be what most native linux users would expect on seeing that word the first time. | 08:25 |
dmj726 | /s/linux users/English speakers | 08:26 |
RST38h | dmj726: only if your native language is English | 08:26 |
RST38h | Because when I see "g" I say "g" :) | 08:26 |
pwnguin | guh-nome sounds stupid anyways | 08:27 |
pwnguin | RST38h: avoid french then | 08:27 |
* RST38h managed to follow this advice so far | 08:27 | |
dmj726 | that's normally true for native speakers but there is an english word gnome that's pronounced nome | 08:27 |
RST38h | "nom", not "nome", right? ;) | 08:28 |
dmj726 | yeah | 08:28 |
pwnguin | nom nom | 08:28 |
dmj726 | long o | 08:28 |
dmj726 | as in Rome | 08:28 |
*** hardaker has quit IRC | 08:28 | |
RST38h | See what I mean? Absolutely no correspondence between spelling and pronounciation :) | 08:28 |
dmj726 | yeah | 08:28 |
pwnguin | throw in an umlaut | 08:28 |
luke-jr | XD | 08:28 |
*** qwerty12 has joined #maemo | 08:29 | |
dmj726 | most English words do follow the rules, but there are tons of exceptions | 08:29 |

ShadowJK | would native english speaker hear difference between gnom and genom | 08:41 |
dmj726 | gnom being with a hard g? | 08:41 |
dmj726 | Native English speakers can easily hear both hard and soft Gs. | 08:42 |
*** scarecro1 has quit IRC | 08:43 | |
dmj726 | the word gnome, however, generally has a silent g unless it refers to the free software project instead of little dwarfs | 08:43 |
*** reed has quit IRC | 08:44 | |
ShadowJK | Well whether gnom with hard g would be heard as genom | 08:48 |
RST38h | no | 08:48 |

Khertan | making backup on ftp | 10:15 |
Khertan | i ve try Simple Backup ... but is so simple that backup are unusable | 10:15 |
Myrtti | rsync over ftp | 10:16 |
bigbrovar | Khertan: Lucky backup has both a qt and a gtk frontend http://luckybackup.sourceforge.net/download.html | 10:17 |
bigbrovar | Khertan: and it works really well, although it doesnt support backup over the network ( at least the lasttime i checked ) | 10:18 |
Khertan | Myrtti: ... hum ... does rsync really support ftp ... ? | 10:18 |

How well is the proxy support of the N900. the n810 had very good proxy support when it comes to preinstalled applications ..( with the exception of the IM Chat app which never worked behind a network proxy) | 10:41 |
adeus | considering that all nokia devs are inside a proxy, I'd guess the support is good | 10:42 |
bigbrovar | Khertan: and no 3rd party app worked when you are behind a network proxy. there seem unable to use the system wide proxy settings. and very few had their own inbuilt proxy settings.. | 10:42 |
*** arbus has joined #maemo | 10:43 | |
bigbrovar | adeus: for pre-installed apps yes.. (except the chat applications on the N810 which seems to be an upstream problem, because telepathy as at then did suport http proxy ) | 10:44 |
Khertan | and no 3rd party app worked when you are behind a network proxy. <<< it s depends if the dev is a good one ... or made crap code | 10:44 |
*** lbt has joined #maemo | 10:44 | |

konttori | alterego: well, harmattan will have gtk support still. | 11:44 |
Khertan | i still don't understand why not keeping gtk | 11:44 |
Jaffa | alterego: Most should be OK with carrying on using Gtk; the question is how much will a Gtk app have to change to match whatever new UI comes in | 11:44 |
jaem | error is: "No Hash entry in Release file /var/lib/apt/lists.new/....extras-devel_dists_fremantle_Release" | 11:44 |
Khertan | it s really a bad idea | 11:44 |
konttori | well, DUI is totally new stuff. | 11:45 |
mikhas | alterego, Qt devs will have to rewrite their apps as well =) | 11:45 |
jaem | Khertan, well, they bought Trolltech for a reason... | 11:45 |
Jaffa | Khertan: Every time the screen redraws during rotation the limitations of Gtk are obvioous | 11:45 |
konttori | if you want the eye-candy and the convenience, then you need to do quite a bit of porting even from a qt app. | 11:45 |
alterego | mikhas: They wont have to do a complete rewriite, where as a lot of gnome tech based apps might. | 11:45 |
Khertan | Jaffa: which limitation ? | 11:45 |
alterego | Is this move from Gtk+ to Qt, going to make all the glib stuff redundant aswell? | 11:45 |
jaem | hrm... anyone know what's up with extras-devel? Is it just me? | 11:46 |
konttori | gtktreeview limitations are pretty obvious as well | 11:46 |

alterego | Will libosso get pushed into a C++ Qt based implementation? | 11:46 |
Jaffa | Khertan: That it doesn't work very well for the kind of thing they're doing with it. | 11:46 |

Jaffa | jaem: Not tried recently; I'll turn it on so I can test the optified Python... hang on | 11:46 |
jaem | Jaffa, thanks | 11:46 |
konttori | libosso will probably be deprecated (not sure, but my guess) | 11:46 |
Khertan | konttori: i found the tree view is good ... the qt one ... i ven't yet successfully use it ... too much complex | 11:46 |
RST38h | konttori: Which does not say much about Ovi Store, given its app acceptancepolicies =( | 11:46 |
mikhas | konttori, I dont see where a cellrenderer is limited compared to that data() + delegate hack | 11:46 |
RST38h | konttori: No, seriously, who came up with that crap? | 11:47 |
Khertan | Jaffa: which kind ... it s work well on maemo 5 ... | 11:47 |
konttori | view + model + delegate you mean | 11:47 |
alterego | tbh, I don't really see much point in libosso anyway, it's just a dbus wrapper with some application reigstration crap. | 11:47 |
alterego | It's something extra that we shouldn't really need to worry about. | 11:47 |
konttori | the policies are for symbian app | 11:47 |
konttori | development | 11:47 |
mikhas | no, I meant the direct comparision of the niceties a cellrenderer offers vs. the ugliness that data() + delegate offer | 11:47 |
konttori | sorry, emilia is 'helping' me type better | 11:48 |
* Khertan don't like how interface are think in qt ... but like how it s done in gtk | 11:48 | |

konttori | policies for ovi store apps will msot likely be different for n900 apps once ovi store is opened | 11:50 |
konttori | but, to be hones, I don't have a clear visibility to the ovi store process, that's just my own guessing | 11:50 |

timeless_mbp | there's a vbox 3.0.12 | 12:07 |
kirma | I'd say that service manual isn't particularly useful for anything unless one is addicted to reading technical documents | 12:07 |
timeless_mbp | so... is anyone using mxr.maemo.org/fremantle? :) | 12:07 |
kirma | hrw: I know it's possible, but details about TV out might be different... I suppose the doc I pasted might have some sort of an answer ;) | 12:07 |

jaem | tigert, same for a lot of my notes, but the advantage of Evernote is that it stores images, but indexes the text | 13:03 |
jaem | so I could, say, look up some calculus theorem by name, and find the graph | 13:03 |

jaem | hrm... has anyone tried hooking up a Wacom Bamboo tablet to the N810? | 13:04 |
jaem | I doubt it would have enough current supply | 13:04 |
jaem | but that would be pretty awesome for xournal | 13:04 |
tigert | the touchscreen itself has pressure sensitivity a bit | 13:05 |
jaem | my handwriting's pretty messy, so I have to zoom in way too far to write neatly | 13:05 |
jaem | yeah | 13:05 |
tigert | its much easier to draw on the screen itself when the dpi is high | 13:05 |
jaem | but the panning bugs me | 13:05 |
jaem | mmhmm | 13:05 |
tigert | sure | 13:05 |
jaem | I suppose | 13:05 |
tigert | so write on a paper sheet and photograph it :) | 13:05 |
tigert | less trouble :) | 13:05 |
tigert | *snap* | 13:05 |
jaem | I was bugging what's-his-name who's working on the Fremantle Xournal port to add some sort of paging ability | 13:05 |
jaem | but with no hardware buttons on the face, that's a bit more awkward | 13:06 |
jaem | a gesture would be nice | 13:06 |
jaem | something that could be done with the hand that's holding the device, while using a stylus with the other | 13:06 |
tigert | two fingers to pan? | 13:06 |
tigert | and one to draw would work | 13:06 |

jaem | tigert, writing with your finger?! um... no | 13:07 |
jaem | I meant a paging gesture, as in "do something with your left thumb to slide it right/carriage return on EOL" while writing with your right hand/stylus | 13:08 |
jaem | as long as you're writing within the lines, it could work, and obviously you could turn it off if you're not | 13:08 |
tigert | yeah | 13:08 |
jaem | there was some talk about making it (in the future) be aware of larger units of writing than just strokes | 13:09 |
jaem | e.g. it knows that a group of letter close together is a word, and can add intelligence based on that | 13:09 |
Shapeshifter | mhh. I don't really get why resistive touch screens didn't have multitouch until only recently. | 13:11 |
jaem | Shapeshifter, are those the 5-wire panels? | 13:11 |
SpeedEvil | Shapeshifter: it's more complex to implement. | 13:11 |
jaem | or am I thinking of something else? | 13:11 |
SpeedEvil | Shapeshifter: you've got to basically segment the screen into lots of little screens to do multitouch | 13:12 |

lardman | javispedro: but yes, that will work for e.g. vCal, vCard? and URLs | 14:11 |
*** BBNS has quit IRC | 14:11 | |

*** BBNS has joined #maemo | 14:11 | |
jaem | grr... apparently Maemo doesn't allow BT pairing with no key, either | 14:13 |

lardman | so how would one try to open a vCal entry programmatically? | 14:18 |
lardman | some dbus call for the calendar app? | 14:19 |
javispedro | presumably, the file manager opens vcal files? | 14:19 |
lardman | yeah, I'll have to have a look at the source for that, assuming it's open | 14:20 |
javispedro | i'm pretty sure it's a plain dbus call | 14:20 |

lardman | I was wondering if rather than a specific call, there was a call one can make to the handler | 14:20 |
lardman | or perhaps that's what it does | 14:20 |
lardman | I'll have to check and see | 14:20 |
VDVsx | jaem, it's because of the dialog context, normally the BT pin codes are numbers | 14:21 |
jaem | VDVsx, I figured that out, but it's not immediately obvious | 14:21 |

jaem | VDVsx, I don't believe so... I know I've paired the wiimote with my old laptop (a year ago), and with my N810 | 14:25 |

PaulFertser | jaem: they do have documentation in the sources. And they do accept patches that clarify it ;) | 14:28 |
jaem | VDVsx, forgive me if I asked this already (I can't remember), but are we going to see the shiny version of BlueMaemo that wazd was posting about, any time soon? | 14:28 |
jaem | PaulFertser, heh... fair enough | 14:28 |
VDVsx | jaem, a incomplete version is on the builder | 14:29 |
VDVsx | but the builder is stuck :( | 14:29 |
PaulFertser | jaem: it's just mad confusing that bluez3-specific info is all over the internet and their wiki too. But almost all important docs are there in the docs directory in the source tarball and they're understandable enough. | 14:29 |
jaem | VDVsx, kk... I've been waiting... it's so purty | 14:29 |

VDVsx | jaem, works for maemo4 and 5 | 14:34 |
jaem | we don't need to do much, to be honest | 14:34 |
jaem | just pair, create an rfcomm device node, and hand it off to the serial communication code that someone else is writing | 14:34 |
VDVsx | jaem, C stuff is a wat more complex | 14:34 |
jaem | VDVsx, I gathered that | 14:34 |
PaulFertser | jaem: read serial-api.txt for that | 14:34 |

*** setanta has joined #maemo | 14:55 | |
PaulFertser | jaem: :((( nokia customer "care" at its best | 14:55 |
jaem | however, the keyboard itself is so much better that typing it on it for most tasks is a reasonably pleasant experience | 14:55 |
jaem | PaulFertser, I would have loved a 5-row keyboard, or at least another 4-row, but given that their main target market isn't the terminal-using type, I can't fault them too much | 14:55 |
PaulFertser | jaem: before i actually tried n810 keyboard i thought it's better. But now i'm disappointed, the feedback is too strange. | 14:55 |
jaem | and it *is* a really nice keyboard | 14:55 |
_berto_ | I find it reasonably good for the shell | 14:55 |
_berto_ | and I do a lot of ssh | 14:55 |
jaem | wait, you like the N810 keyboard better?! | 14:56 |
jaem | the N900 took a bit of getting used to, but now I can't stand my N810's | 14:56 |
PaulFertser | jaem: i thought n810 keyboard is better than it actually is. | 14:56 |
jaem | plus I can't touch-type on it anymore :P | 14:56 |
jaem | ah | 14:56 |
jaem | well, the N900's keyboard blows it out of the water | 14:56 |
_berto_ | I think the n900 keyboard is more pleasant to use | 14:56 |
*** digitalstimulus_ has joined #maemo | 14:56 | |
jaem | my only annoyance is that they put two switches under the space key, so while it doesn't *actually* double-press, it sometimes feels like it has, and throws off my touch-typing | 14:57 |
jaem | also, a right-shift would have been nice | 14:57 |
*** t_s_o has joined #maemo | 14:57 | |
jaem | the arrow keys are great, thoguh | 14:57 |
jaem | a D-Pad would have been nice, but the N900's arrow keys are a sight better than the N810's D-Pad, in general terms | 14:57 |
jaem | so I'll take what I can get | 14:58 |
PaulFertser | _berto_: on n810 i lack esc, tab, / is not convenient... Also no meta key (and esc is inconvenient)... | 14:58 |
*** Xisdibik has joined #maemo | 14:58 | |
jaem | that was actually my general impression of the N900 - lots of things that could have been done better/more to my liking, but still a fairly solid device, and a huge step in the right direction | 14:58 |
_berto_ | PaulFertser: it's obviously not perfect for the shell, but it's reasonably good | 14:58 |
jaem | PaulFertser, give me a moment - link | 14:58 |
_berto_ | I wouldn't expect a thinkpad keyboard on a pocket device :p | 14:58 |
tigert | its pretty sweet compromise | 14:59 |

jaem | I use that layout on my N810, and it's much better | 14:59 |
jaem | keep in mind that the "back" key is mapped to Esc | 14:59 |
_berto_ | ah yes | 14:59 |
PaulFertser | jaem: lack of usb host is something that i found unacceptable. Also the price. It's so fucking much more than ~$200 you can buy a freerunner for, and freerunner is on the order of magnitude more free. | 14:59 |
_berto_ | in the n900 it's a bit more annoying, but still ... | 14:59 |
*** BBNS has quit IRC | 15:00 | |
*** BBNS_ has joined #maemo | 15:00 | |

PaulFertser | jaem: indeed. But FR has usb host. And you can connect spi chips or whatever to it. Hackability is superior. Anyway, have a nice day, gtg :) good luck. | 15:01 |

ali1234 | i wanted to test ogre3d before updating | 21:07 |
ali1234 | because then if i ruin it, well, i'm going to update anyway | 21:07 |
yerga | ali1234, it worked fine here with 42-11 | 21:08 |

ali1234 | and what's the point of using apt anyway if you're going to make monolithic firmware images? | 21:10 |
* Jaffa wonders how much of Children in Need he'll have to watch to see Doctor Who snippet | 21:13 | |
andre__ | there's also 3rd party software out there | 21:13 |
andre__ | ali1234: as it's monolithic images switching to some proprietary stuff instead of apt makes sense? ;-) | 21:14 |
ali1234 | so apt is just for 3rd party developers, who are continuously at the whim of nokia to not screw it up by a firmware update? | 21:14 |
PaulFertser | ali1234: and what is the point in assuming nokia wants to use a sane strategy for updates? Once i was told that nokia doesn't target any users that can compile kernels (or know how to use apt-get/apt-cache). It looks very true given the strange hybrid update system they used for Nxx0. | 21:14 |
Jaffa | ali1234: Most updates are shipped via apt, but during pre-production it's easier to ship whole images | 21:14 |
ali1234 | because that's how it feels | 21:15 |
andre__ | later on-the-fly updates do use apt. | 21:15 |
*** woglinde has joined #maemo | 21:15 | |

*** dabozz has left #maemo | 21:20 | |
PaulFertser | andre__: have you ever used Debian or any other distro? Do they use any strange dirty tricks like that to update the system? | 21:20 |
ali1234 | it is a small step from "you're running pre-release software, get over it" to "you're running out of date software, get over it" to "your users are running out of date software, get over it" | 21:20 |
GAN900 | All the user has to do is tap a couple of buttons. | 21:20 |

PaulFertser | GAN900: what is SSU anyway? Why doesn't it come with the usual apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade? | 21:22 |
andre__ | qwerty12_N810: hey, i just wanted to play an egoshooter while my g/f was sleeping next to me. quite normal, eh? :-P | 21:22 |
GAN900 | It's a metapackage that updates the system software. | 21:22 |
ali1234 | andre__: because i set up my own repo, uploaded a system lib to it (which was not marked with an extras/* section as per the guidelines) and then uploaded an updated version, and i was not notified of the update on the device | 21:22 |
GAN900 | For a variety of largely legacy reasons. | 21:22 |
ali1234 | the only way i could install it was to do it manually with apt-get | 21:23 |
andre__ | qwerty12_N810, argh. "first person shooter" i mean. i think only the stupid germans call it "egoshooter"... | 21:23 |

hardaker | (and they lie) | 21:27 |
hardaker | when they said "they're shipping" the other day and you call they say "oh yeah, we're just waiting for fedex to pick them up" | 21:27 |
PaulFertser | Jaffa: ubuntu is not a good example, i'm afraid. When i saw "fail-safe X server" (that is designed specifically to make xorg.conf editing harder) i lost all my hope in that distro. | 21:28 |
hardaker | and keep saying that for days... somehow, I don't think it's fedex | 21:28 |
andre__ | hardaker, uhm... which country? | 21:28 |

Jaffa | PaulFertser: I'm talking technical reasons | 21:28 |
annoia | I'm trying to install the ssh client/server, but I'm missing openssh-client and openssh-server... Where to I get these (and why aren't they in the same repository?!!) | 21:29 |
ali1234 | so, as it stands, the existing package management system makes it impossible for 3rd party developers to fix security bugs (or any other kind of bugs) in libraries | 21:29 |
Jaffa | ali1234: There've been a number of discussion as to how to solve that, and there *is* a workaround. Feel free to participate on maemo-developers and patches to HAM always welcome. | 21:29 |
ali1234 | and if you think that is a good idea then there's really no hope for you | 21:29 |
PaulFertser | GeneralAntilles: i can't understand how an update stratagy for a mobile device differs from a PC OS, sorry. I admit i'm somewhat dumb. But probably other users are not very smart as well so it deserves some explanation imho. | 21:29 |
*** jgoss has joined #maemo | 21:29 | |
ali1234 | last time i raised this issue the workaround was to force a dependency on the package(s) which use it | 21:29 |

annoia | GeneralAntilles - That's pretty weird, as I have extras in my catalogues | 21:31 |
ali1234 | the solution is really simple. the solution is not to have a solution. just show all updates whether they have a section or not. | 21:31 |
Jaffa | ali1234: Not very user friendly for the mass-market. | 21:32 |
javispedro | so that the user gets an update availables dialog for "libillumination"? | 21:32 |
ali1234 | yes | 21:32 |
javispedro | (sorry for putting that concrete example) | 21:32 |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, Fremantle or Diablo? | 21:32 |
ali1234 | or better the user gets "updates available, do you want to install? (y/n)" | 21:32 |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - Fremantle | 21:32 |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, what does apt-get update show? | 21:32 |
GeneralAntilles | apt-get install openssh-server (or -client) shows not found, I presume? | 21:33 |
Jaffa | ali1234: err, that *is* the notifications dialogue for updates. But, as you say, it only deals with user-facing packages. | 21:33 |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - Actually apt-cache search ssh shows the openssh-client and server... | 21:33 |
ali1234 | exactly, and that's the problem | 21:33 |
Jaffa | ali1234: Yes, and your solution isn't compatible with the requirements. So a different solution is needed. | 21:33 |
GeneralAntilles | Ah, apt-get install openssh ? | 21:33 |
ali1234 | in that case the requirements are broken | 21:34 |

Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: No, he means not telling the user what's going to be updated at all | 21:35 |

*** anselmolsm has joined #maemo | 21:35 | |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - Could it be that because installing the package removes a different package, the Nokia tool refuses? | 21:35 |
Jaffa | Just that there are updates and it'll take 34.2MB to download | 21:35 |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, installing openssh shouldn't remove anything. | 21:35 |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, can you pastebin the apt log? | 21:35 |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - It removes ssh and mp-fremantle-generic-tr | 21:36 |
GeneralAntilles | ali1234, problem with that is that users often install repositories which will make their systems unbootable if a dist-upgrade is applied. | 21:36 |
ali1234 | the problem is "the user doesn't understand about updates for libraries" and the solution we currently have is "lets just not update those libraries" when the correct solution is "lets just update the libraries without telling the user specifically what was updated" | 21:36 |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - Not sure what you're looking for, but I'm fairly well versed in Linux :) | 21:36 |

PaulFertser | Jaffa: the problem is that everyone says: hey, maemo is a nice distro, there's apt to manage your packages, just like in your favourite debian. And then it suddenly appears it's not exactly like that. | 21:39 |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - Ah, yes, 42-11 | 21:39 |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, hrm, strange. | 21:39 |
javispedro | PaulFertser: what part of apt is missing? | 21:39 |
GeneralAntilles | And apt-get install openssh-server/client wants to remove things? | 21:39 |

PaulFertser | javispedro: no apt part is missing. But extra confusing non-apt parts (SSU) are present. And that is just confusing. It's not explained anywhere why this extra mechanism is introduced and how it works. Just very confusing. I think i somewhat can read docs and the code but the page about SSU on the wiki tells about nothing to me. :-/ | 21:41 |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, not sure what either package is related to. | 21:41 |
ali1234 | also the gui update manage does not work like the way people have used other distros will expect for reasons i spent the last 15 minutes ranting about | 21:41 |
javispedro | PaulFertser: SSU is a meta-package that has strong dependencies on certain versions of system components. like ubuntu-desktop. is that enough? | 21:41 |
javispedro | ali1234: install synaptic | 21:42 |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - Dunno. But it doesn't seem too disastrous to remove ;) | 21:42 |
ali1234 | synaptic is not an update notifier | 21:42 |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, at worst you may have to reflash. ;) | 21:42 |
javispedro | ali1234: well install your favourite update notifier. | 21:42 |
*** trickie has joined #maemo | 21:42 | |
GeneralAntilles | annoia, usually the disastrous removals you can spot when it wants to free about 140MB of installed packages. ;0 | 21:42 |
annoia | Hehe | 21:42 |
PaulFertser | javispedro: well... If it was written on the wiki _and_ it was clearly stated how it interacts with apt (e.g. what if i have my own kernel package that is on hold to avoid auto-updating etc), it'd be enough. | 21:43 |
annoia | GeneralAntilles - Ten years of Debian/Ubuntu has taught me to spot those ;) | 21:43 |
javispedro | PaulFertser: easy. if you have your own kernel you're on your own when updating. dist-upgrade, intuition, and good luck. | 21:43 |
ali1234 | javispedro: i may have to do that. unfortunately there's no guarantee my users will do that | 21:43 |
PaulFertser | javispedro: hm. Do you agree that SSU is confusing and scary to any Debian administrator even after he reads http://wiki.maemo.org/Seamless_Software_Update ? | 21:44 |

javispedro | ali1234: so all you want is for users to have updated versions of a lib you need? then yes you'll need a newer version of a user/ package every time. | 21:45 |
javispedro | every time a newer version of the lib shows up. | 21:45 |
javispedro | PaulFertser: no, I don't find it scary. The first thing I did was switch to unlocked. If you know how to recompile and flash your own kernel I'll find it disturbing a metapackage bothering you. | 21:46 |
*** felipec has quit IRC | 21:49 | |
ali1234 | javispedro: which is bad if i didn't make any user visible package which uses the lib | 21:49 |
PaulFertser | javispedro: it's written on the wiki that installing this package will overwrite my kernel. It's not clear if it will do it or not if the kernel is installed as a proper package and is put on hold. So uncertainty combined with unclear intentions is somewhat bothering. | 21:49 |
javispedro | PaulFertser: "kernel installed as a proper package"? the kernel is not even on a filesystem! | 21:50 |
javispedro | ali1234: and what use is a lib without a user-visible app? | 21:50 |
ali1234 | javispedro: you assume that all packages are made by the same person? | 21:50 |
ali1234 | the whole point of libraries is multiple packages may use them | 21:50 |
javispedro | ali1234: no. I assume people talking. | 21:51 |
ali1234 | well that's not a valid assumption | 21:51 |
PaulFertser | javispedro: i think that the proper way would be to install kernels to the filesystem and to provide a tool like update-alternatives to flash the particular kernel you want. | 21:51 |
javispedro | well then why we're going to have an ITP mailing list. | 21:51 |
ali1234 | what if the person who makes the user package has disappeared? hit by a bus? | 21:51 |
*** mikkov has joined #maemo | 21:52 | |
ali1234 | at best you have to scramble around for someone else to make an updated package | 21:52 |
javispedro | ali1234: freeze the package forever in memoriam? or take over it? what a hard decision damn it! | 21:52 |
ali1234 | of course if you just allow library updates, you don't need to do either | 21:52 |
ali1234 | because the existing package would continue to work with the new lib | 21:52 |
javispedro | until you hit a bug in the user/ app and you have to take over the package either way. | 21:53 |
Jaffa | ali1234: Who does the testing in your "multiple people sharing a J. Random Library" world? | 21:53 |
ali1234 | and of course it's even worse if multiple packages use the lib | 21:53 |
Jaffa | Maemo doesn't have the release process, the entry requirements or the timescales of Debian. | 21:53 |
Shapeshifter | when making a wallpaper for the n900, is one big wide image needed, or 4 small ones? | 21:55 |

PaulFertser | What is also strange is that maemo doesn't seem to be widely accepted. All PDAs were using OPIE or GPE, now it's E's Illume or Xfce, lxdm in favour. If maemo is really good why didn't it attract developers who use other (than nokia's) devices like iPAQs, Zauruses etc? | 22:00 |

javispedro | now you have challenged the honor of my family! | 22:01 |
javispedro | ;) | 22:01 |
GeneralAntilles | PaulFertser, because Maemo isn't designed to run on different hardware | 22:01 |
Jaffa | PaulFertser: There are lots of ex-devs from those platforms. | 22:01 |
GeneralAntilles | and most of those devices don't have the resources to run Maemo well | 22:01 |
GeneralAntilles | either way, please see Mer. | 22:01 |

Jaffa | PaulFertser: Where was Linux in terms of platforms and devices a couple of years into its dev? | 22:06 |
PaulFertser | It's also horrifying to see nokia use maemo again instead of mer. | 22:06 |
Stskeeps | (OBS only takes in stable versions) | 22:06 |
Jaffa | PaulFertser: Then you don't understand Maemo, Nokia, mobile devices, consumer electronics *or* Mer. | 22:06 |

* RST38h hails the Tentacled One, who has definitely claimed another victim just now | 22:08 | |
* Jaffa boggles at so much energy being poured into slamming Nokia for imagined or hypothetical problems, whilst totally ignoring the easily documentable current problems which are still ongoing. | 22:09 | |

* Stskeeps twitches | 22:09 | |
* RST38h does not see why Maemo should "go" somewhere else | 22:09 | |
PaulFertser | Stskeeps: if by people you mean fellow developers, then probably you're wrong. | 22:09 |

RST38h | PaulFertser: Now, if you are willing and able to make a Linux distro that will match Maemo functionality on a bunch of other mobile devices (let us say HTC ones) and give it away for free, I am all for it | 22:11 |
RST38h | PaulFertser: Start hacking. | 22:11 |
PaulFertser | RST38h: SHR is about to provide that. | 22:12 |
* Stskeeps twitches again | 22:12 | |
lardman | ~SHR | 22:12 |
infobot | methinks shr is The Stable Hybrid Release (SHR), intended to be a community driven distribution composed of the FSO and some basic applications, that can be configured to use several different graphical toolkits, for example GTK or EFL. SHR is based on the FSO build. At first, SHR was introduced in order to use the Openmoko2007.2 GTK software in combination with the new FSO, but things have changed. | 22:12 |
RST38h | PaulFertser: If you are just making grand statements about how software is supposed to be free, I suggest you stuff it for now. | 22:12 |
Milo- | Jaffa how come there isn't link to that in the Maemo5-sdk's 'downloads' page? | 22:12 |
PaulFertser | RST38h: but maemo is not. Maemo is semi-open platform to run on nokia devices only. | 22:12 |

RST38h | Paul: Fine with me. | 22:13 |

PaulFertser | RST38h: lack of portability, also improper priorities. If some hackers want to use it on other devices, nokia won't probably accept the patches because they'd be conflicting with either their "business stratagy" or their "great future plans". | 22:14 |

RST38h | Paul: So, if you would like ot continue being delusional, that is your right. Just do not get us into this | 22:19 |
javispedro | Milo-: yeah, if you don't want to extract the packages somehow you'll have to build from source. dpkg-deb at least should be easily installable. | 22:19 |
RST38h | (besides, most of us probably heard these arguments a zillion times, so you are being boring) | 22:20 |
PaulFertser | RST38h: but i think that is not about delusions. UNIX was a success exactly because it could run on many different architectures. So was the case with Linux, also it's openness contributed. | 22:20 |
Milo- | just dpkg, gentoo doesn't add unnecessary garbage to the packagenames :) | 22:20 |
Milo- | it's not a problem to compile from sources | 22:20 |
javispedro | Milo-: dpkg-deb is an actual application. | 22:20 |
* RST38h sighs again: UNIX has been developed in AT&T labs, paid by big motherfucking Phone Company, for Cthulhu's sake | 22:21 | |
Stskeeps | PaulFertser: i don't dispute that having maemo on multiple devices would be good for the platform. that's what we're trying to move Maemo towards using Mer. | 22:21 |
javispedro | Milo-, it definitely is. To build sbox you'll probably need even more debian tools... | 22:21 |
PaulFertser | But it was given away to the universities for free. And it was portable enough. | 22:21 |

PaulFertser | Stskeeps: you're trying. But nokia doesn't seem to really want that or else they've put enough resources long time ago. | 22:22 |

RST38h | Ok. Nokia does not want that. So? | 22:23 |
Milo- | E: CPU transparency method 'qemu-arm-sb' not found. | 22:23 |
PaulFertser | RST38h: so that's the reason "maemo" sucks, i.e. "cool hackers" do not like it for a reason. | 22:23 |
Jaffa | PaulFertser: It's a journey. They're a big company. Maemo is now key to their strategy (and based on where it's come from) and they pay Stskeep to work on Mer and help move Maemo out onto other devices and bring other distros on to their hardware. | 22:23 |
Milo- | whee, next error :) | 22:23 |

qwerty12_N810 | kirma: Hehe, I stand corrected | 22:52 |
ShadowJK | well, you can take the boat this weekend to figure out it's not available, and then the next weekend again | 22:53 |
ShadowJK | and then the third weekend, because the first two you enjoyed the beer on the all-you-can-eat-and-drink buffet too much | 22:54 |

hrabbey | Here is a app idea, IF the n900 or other hardware supports it. Have maemo act as a simulated bluetooth headset, allowing pair another cellphone and bluetooth mp3 or maybe a 3rd cellphone and mixing the audio streams together. So can listen to mp3s while still not missing cellphone ringing / tones. | 23:03 |

GeneralAntilles | wjt, I guess cause they're free and of reasonable quality. | 23:27 |
GeneralAntilles | I don't care for them myself, but to each his own, I suppose. | 23:27 |
wjt | i mean… i can only use them in the text editor, right? I can't make the whole UI use them. | 23:28 |

bigbrovar | wjt: what about using other IM plugin like msn, yahoo skype? | 23:32 |
GeneralAntilles | Telepathy extras are available in Extras-devel. | 23:32 |
GeneralAntilles | Skype is built-in. | 23:32 |
Jaffa | wjt: Droid Sans Mono in X Terminal is very nice even at small point sizes | 23:33 |
Macer | wow skype is built in? | 23:33 |
wjt | bigbrovar: the extra ones don't explicitly support proxies, but we could probably hack the telepathy-haze ones up to do so | 23:33 |
wjt | yeah! | 23:33 |
Macer | is it the call forwarding skype? or the real skype? | 23:33 |

ali1234 | (voted for it anyway) | 23:42 |
bigbrovar | Jaffa: sad to see it made it to the N900 proxy is very common esp in universities | 23:42 |
mikedep333 | Shapeshifter, I eagerly look forward to having a phone with a scrolling home screen like that | 23:43 |
Jaffa | Of course, the term "deal breaker" is bandied around too often. It comes across too much (certainly on tmo) of people saying "if you don't fix this, I won't buy it - and I don't care about your prioritisation process because it's important to *me*" (of course, here it _is_ important; but it smacks of arrogance now in Maemo circles IMVHO) | 23:43 |
Jaffa | bigbrovar: US universities, I assume you mean. | 23:43 |
bigbrovar | Jaffa: and majority of N900 target audience are students in uni so we should expect a surge in the bug activity in term of votes | 23:44 |
Shapeshifter | mikedep333: I'll make more anime stuff. I haven't even got the phone myself :| | 23:44 |
ali1234 | Jaffa: so we should buy things that don't work? | 23:44 |
javispedro | bigbrovar: get used to it and fix it by yourself. see eduroam. | 23:44 |
Jaffa | ali1234: No | 23:44 |
greenfly | if something is a deal breaker it would probably make sense to confirm whether that particular feature is in place /before/ money is exchanged | 23:44 |
javispedro | s/and/or | 23:44 |
bigbrovar | Jaffa: not just us, and but even most co-operate places | 23:44 |
ali1234 | we should just not say anything then? | 23:44 |
bigbrovar | javispedro: ?! | 23:44 |
* VDVsx remembers Darius and his "think tank" o_0 | 23:44 | |

mikedep333 | I don't believe I can do either of those on my nokia 5800 xpressmusic | 23:45 |
Jaffa | ali1234: My point is that on talk.maemo.org there are people registering just to say "Nokia should do $RANDOM, it's a deal breaker for me!". It's become a cliche, and it's become a cliche because the people doing it are arrogant enough to think a) I care; and b) that their one lost sale (which the "for me") bit emphasises is important. | 23:45 |
greenfly | you could always use the cellular data connection | 23:45 |
ali1234 | Jaffa: if the number of people doing it is so high then maybe you should care? (or *somebody* should) | 23:46 |
Jaffa | ali1234: Now, lots of lost sales are going to be important to Nokia; I was trying to explain why "deal breaker" has entered some people in the Maemo community's lexicon under the "drinking game" category | 23:46 |
Jaffa | ali1234: Each person has a separate one | 23:46 |
greenfly | for some people, some particular UI decision is a "deal breaker" | 23:46 |
*** Flyser has quit IRC | 23:46 | |
greenfly | IMO the difference between the maemo platform and a lot of others is that you actually have a chance to fix your own "dealbreaker" problems | 23:47 |
*** mikkov1 has left #maemo | 23:47 | |
javispedro | exactly. | 23:47 |

qwerty12_N810 | javispedro: Not because of the lovely community? *sniff* | 23:48 |
greenfly | heh | 23:48 |
Jaffa | And I've got into trouble before for trying to explain why one bit of the community thinks something, to someone who takes immediate umbrage, and so I'm not in the mood for it now :-/ | 23:48 |
javispedro | qwerty12_N810: I hate you all, I've told you!! ;) | 23:49 |
greenfly | for what it's worth, if your connection allows SSH, you can always set up an SSH tunnel to act as a socks proxy | 23:49 |
qwerty12_N810 | Fine: /ignore javispedro | 23:49 |
ali1234 | greenfly: you can, but telepathy can't use it | 23:49 |
Jaffa | And, the great thing about the Maemo community this evening (random IRC rantage and -testing petulance aside) is that I'm now put off from doing the complex cross-posting thingy I was going to do; and instead go to bed and read and sleep. This is a Good Thing :) | 23:49 |
Milo- | great | 23:49 |
bigbrovar | Jaffa: any idea if pidgin has been ported to the N900 its usually my saving grace | 23:49 |
greenfly | ali1234: or, if your connection allows something like openVPN, you can set up a tunnel to a network that allows what you need | 23:50 |
greenfly | bigbrovar: yeah there's a package either in -devel or -testing | 23:50 |
ali1234 | greenfly: that is exactly what i do (ssh socks proxy) but it only works with pidgin/libpurple and not telepathy/empathy/whatever | 23:50 |
greenfly | no Off The Record support yet, but the main bits are there | 23:50 |
Milo- | sdk-installer fails, if I have scratchbox -service started, tells me to close all scratchbox sessions, and if it's not started, it fails because it has to be started 8D | 23:50 |
greenfly | ali1234: you could set up an openvpn tunnel, perhaps | 23:51 |
greenfly | there's even an applet for it now | 23:51 |
ali1234 | greenfly: i could do but that is several times more complicated | 23:51 |
*** Pio has quit IRC | 23:51 | |
greenfly | ali1234: well, I agree, the easiest thing is to try to get someone else to set it up :) | 23:51 |

Milo- | Check for scratchbox sessions running... | 23:51 |
ali1234 | bad ones :( | 23:51 |
Milo- | E: You must close your other scratchbox sessions first | 23:51 |

Milo- | how am I supposed to install it then? 8D | 23:53 |
Milo- | I can't have scratchbox-service STARTED and STOPPED at the same time 8Dd | 23:53 |
ali1234 | but there i can just install pidgin, so meh | 23:53 |
greenfly | I think maemo5 might just be the thing that encourages me to learn python | 23:54 |
ali1234 | Milo-: perhaps create /dev/null manually? | 23:54 |
Milo- | I do have /dev/null ._· | 23:54 |
Milo- | but not in scratchbox's place | 23:54 |
bigbrovar | ali1234: yep .. the good ole pidgin always works .. although lacks the integration and awesomeness of the default IM .. having all ur contacts (gtalk, skype etc) in one place | 23:55 |
ali1234 | Milo-: there's a different one "inside" scratchbox | 23:55 |
ali1234 | bigbrovar: yes, and it sucks on the small screen too | 23:55 |
