fnordianslip | hmm. i've been getting a crash out of Media Player. It happens only when I choose to display Playlists, not All albums, Artists or Genres. This didn't happen before I synced my 20GB iTunes library with Nokia Multimedia Sync - it was previously synced with Sailing Media Sync. Media Player seems to crash when it tries to work out the total time for the "Never Played" automatic playlist. | 00:00 |

angasule_ | is amsn available on a repo somewhere? | 00:01 |
woglinde | whats amsn? | 00:01 |
woglinde | msn client? | 00:01 |
angasule_ | yes | 00:01 |
angasule_ | with webcam (and voice? :? support) | 00:01 |
angasule_ | hmm, it might not have voice, now that I think about it, so it's no good | 00:01 |
angasule_ | I know skype video won't work, so I'm trying to figure out how to have a videoconference with my sister | 00:02 |
woglinde | there is no videochat client yet | 00:02 |
angasule_ | bummer, will have to use the laptop | 00:02 |
charkins | farsight is in the repos, i wonder if pidgin could be built with voice/video support | 00:03 |
Tester | charkins: why woul dyou want that? you should use the built-in app | 00:04 |
charkins | maybe i'll give it a try after i get basic 2-way multi google calendar sync working | 00:04 |
Tester | it uses farsight too | 00:04 |
Tester | charkins: and it has a bunch of optimisations that are specific to the n900 hardware | 00:04 |
woglinde | tester hm | 00:05 |
angasule_ | I have an N810 | 00:05 |
*** florian has quit IRC | 00:05 | |
charkins | Tester: i just mentioned it because pidgin already has some support for voice/video, so it should be a matter of building, rather than developing the features for the stock im client | 00:05 |
Tester | woglinde: video is coming in an upcoming update | 00:06 |
charkins | nice, i'd much rather see it in the native client | 00:06 |

shinkamui | but hands down it takes better pics than the iphone | 01:25 |
*** Rachu has joined #maemo | 01:25 | |
shinkamui | I wouldn't compare it to a dedicated 5mp digital camera | 01:25 |
shinkamui | i mean clearly, there's a huge difference between the 1/2" lense on the N900 and the 2.5" lense on my Nikkon | 01:26 |
flux | I imagine the size of the sensor is also a fraction of what real cameras, even ultracompact, have | 01:26 |
Proteous | 1/2"? you mean .001mm :P | 01:26 |
shinkamui | I was referring to the outer lense | 01:26 |
ShadowJK | shinkamui, well I don't know anyone with an iphone | 01:26 |
shinkamui | ShadowJK you do now :) | 01:27 |
ShadowJK | but for taking still pictures, my Nokia E75's 3.5Mpixel camer is better | 01:27 |
shinkamui | I retired my 3gs for the N900 | 01:27 |
shinkamui | I find the capure process a little slow | 01:27 |
shinkamui | but its still useable | 01:27 |
ShadowJK | and the E75 has video light... though my flashlight kinda worked as video light too | 01:27 |
shinkamui | I liked how the N95 had burst mode | 01:27 |
flux | shooting a sequence of images in rapid succession would be nice | 01:27 |
shinkamui | yea | 01:28 |
flux | yes, or call it "rapid", much shorter :) | 01:28 |
shinkamui | thats my favorite feature of any camera | 01:28 |
ShadowJK | yeh, E75 has burst mode too, and a "take picture every X seconds until memory card is full" | 01:28 |
SpeedEvil | n900 flashlight is pretty useless for video mode | 01:28 |
SpeedEvil | regrettably | 01:28 |
shinkamui | lol | 01:28 |
flux | shadowjk, I wouldn't call that very rapid | 01:28 |
shinkamui | haven't even tried a night video | 01:28 |
ShadowJK | No I mean I had a flashlight with me too | 01:28 |
SpeedEvil | For example - taking pictures of a face. | 01:28 |
Proteous | my n97 has a multi picture function | 01:28 |
ShadowJK | I took picture of fireworks | 01:28 |
Proteous | it has the same 5mp camera as the n900 | 01:28 |
ifreq | I love turtles. | 01:28 |
SpeedEvil | if the persons face fills more than half of the screen, it will be in focus. | 01:28 |
SpeedEvil | err | 01:28 |
Proteous | w00t, turtles | 01:28 |
SpeedEvil | reasonably lit | 01:28 |
shinkamui | Proteous quality difference? | 01:29 |
shinkamui | I figured the N900s camera issues are soley software | 01:29 |
SpeedEvil | otherwise, it rapidly dissapears. | 01:29 |
Proteous | shinkamui: quality diffence with what | 01:29 |
shinkamui | I mean, if you can take video, should be easy to take a burst of photos | 01:29 |
shinkamui | N900 and N97 camera images | 01:29 |
Proteous | ah | 01:29 |
ShadowJK | shinkamui, there are some hardware issues too, like the silver frame in the back cover | 01:29 |
Proteous | I don't think so | 01:29 |
SpeedEvil | Proteous: how do you know it has the same camera? | 01:29 |
Proteous | it doesn't? | 01:29 |
Proteous | nokia sourced two different 5mp phone camera units?.... | 01:30 |
Proteous | not sure why they would do that | 01:30 |
SpeedEvil | Proteous: perhaps. | 01:30 |
Proteous | for phones that were being developed at the same time | 01:30 |
SpeedEvil | Proteous: simply as hardware purchasing is not as simple as you might think from the outside. | 01:30 |
flux | shadowjk, well, taking a 0.3Mpix (?) video is still a bit different from taking 5Mpix stills | 01:30 |
*** Kamui900 has joined #Maemo | 01:30 | |
ShadowJK | flux, N900 takes 800x480 videos. E75 takes 640x480 videos | 01:31 |
blizzow | The camera units are slightly different. The N97 is 2.8/5.4 and the N900 is 2.8/5.2 | 01:31 |
ShadowJK | both encode to h264 in mp4 container | 01:31 |
SpeedEvil | I suppose chasing down the part numbers for the phone, and seeing if they are the same | 01:31 |
ShadowJK | Yeah, the lens and assembly make alot of difference too | 01:31 |
SpeedEvil | Proteous: have you found a L1/L2 service manual for the n97 - is the camera removable? | 01:31 |
*** Kamui900 has quit IRC | 01:31 | |
shinkamui | nice | 01:31 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: the lens and the camera come in one unit | 01:31 |
flux | shadowjk, well, one could easily think that the bandwidth from the image capturing chip is limited | 01:31 |
ShadowJK | My E75 has a flash which does not blind itself ;) | 01:32 |
shinkamui | Xchat save preferences issue has been fixed | 01:32 |
shinkamui | w00hoo! | 01:32 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: nokia simply plug the whole camera and lens assembly into the motherboard. | 01:32 |
Proteous | the size diffences is probably just a software thing to make use of the different screen l/w ratios | 01:32 |
flux | shadowjk, and if the same chip does h264 and jpeg, the jpegs are still going to be a lot larger per second | 01:32 |
ShadowJK | flux, it's raw from the capture chip, the compression is done on the SOC | 01:32 |
ShadowJK | by the dsp, probably | 01:32 |
SpeedEvil | The SoC has a JPEG compressor | 01:32 |
SpeedEvil | it's apparantly not the DSP | 01:32 |
ShadowJK | I hope it isn't used | 01:32 |
SpeedEvil | or it is seperately mentioned. | 01:33 |
flux | shadowjk, in that case I suppose it'd be easy to grab a few raw images and compress them later? | 01:33 |
ShadowJK | The SOC has all that IVA stuff... but it's only accessible through DSP, I think, and not documented.. | 01:33 |
* SpeedEvil _really_ wants a proper datasheet. | 01:33 | |
SpeedEvil | flux: much of the stuff is not documented at all. | 01:33 |
flux | speedevil, easy as in there are are no fundamental problems to be resolved, ie. a nokia engineer could do it easily?-) | 01:34 |

radic__ | #df @ irc.euirc.net rult | 01:35 |
flux | but, I shall be off to sleep. happy new year etc. | 01:35 |
ShadowJK | I'm not sure those hw jpeg compressors and decompressors are worth it | 01:35 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: they _vastly_ reduce the amount of data that needs to be thrown around. | 01:36 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: especially in video | 01:36 |
ShadowJK | SpeedEvil, as long as you can zero-copy it.. | 01:36 |
SpeedEvil | flux: and stuff that could be done by nokia doesn't mean... | 01:36 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: it's not that simple. | 01:36 |
ShadowJK | of course | 01:36 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: Busses in mobile devices often are not uncontended. | 01:37 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: So transferring an image from the camera directly into memory will eat a fair amount of bandwidth. | 01:37 |
ShadowJK | But even if you had the camera connected straight to the SOC's camera interface, it still takes effort to make an efficient driver to take advantage of the jpeg compressor | 01:38 |
SpeedEvil | On some mobiles, yes it supports DMA, but the memory controller does not support interleaved access so you block. | 01:38 |
SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: the way it generally works is that hte JPEG compressor module simply spits out a short frame with the image data in. | 01:38 |
*** Pudding-n900 has joined #maemo | 01:39 | |

*** aniude1 has joined #maemo | 08:38 | |
lucent | I'm not really sure what to say - it worked for about 1 minute | 08:38 |
lucent | I had to wait-for-connection from within Blue Maemo and then connect to it from the Ubuntu Bluetooth connection preferences dialog | 08:39 |
lucent | going the other way around wouldn't work at all | 08:39 |
pupnik | setting up bluetooth on my linux PC was 'fun' like configuring a soundblaster in 1995 | 08:40 |
lucent | it is simple in Ubuntu | 08:41 |
pupnik | that's what ubuntu does best | 08:42 |
* cehteh rather wants the other way around, use the laptops keyboard and mouse for the n900 | 08:42 | |
cehteh | have to play with x2x for that, but hildon is really bad with mouse | 08:43 |
pupnik | on 770 and N810 i used synergy all the time to control device with keybd/mouse | 08:43 |
cehteh | can connect my bluetooth mouse, but without a cursor its no much fun :P .. scroll wheel works at last | 08:43 |
pupnik | runs on n900 too | 08:43 |
cehteh | x2x is way more nice when you only want to connect x servers | 08:43 |
pupnik | thanks i'll look into it | 08:44 |
cehteh | less resources, less latency, easier to configure | 08:44 |
cehteh | x2x -wait -north -to starbase.pipapo.org:0 | 08:44 |
cehteh | rather no config at all just a few commandline opts :) | 08:45 |
pupnik | gimme | 08:45 |
cehteh | but the n900 xserver doesnt listen on tcp and i rather dont want to change that :) so ssh tunnel ftw | 08:46 |
pupnik | where did you get x2x binary? | 08:47 |
cehteh | you only need that on one side (where you use the keybaord and mouse) | 08:47 |
cehteh | its packaged for most distis | 08:48 |
pupnik | that sounds awesome | 08:48 |
cehteh | other server needs the xtest extension, i didnt looked in that is enabled on the n900 .. but enabling it is quite common | 08:48 |
lucent | today I mailed my rebate application for the US N900 Ovi Store sign up | 08:49 |
cehteh | uses some x protocoll magic rather than client/server like synergy | 08:49 |
lucent | despite there being no Ovi Store to sign up for | 08:49 |
lucent | I hope to hell it gets honored anyways | 08:49 |
cehteh | what app is that? | 08:50 |

pupnik | btw i tried the index.theme trick from n800 to show x pointer and it doesn't seem to work | 09:07 |
pupnik | even copied x-xcursor.xml over | 09:07 |
cehteh | i made the photo with the n900 itself so no photo while its in the case yet :) | 09:08 |

lucent | ah | 10:01 |
lucent | well I see no reason that the only access the CP-321 allows is to get the stylus | 10:01 |
cehteh | yeah, i made it by myself because no one fits my requirements: good impact potection & useable at the same time | 10:01 |
cehteh | a simple neoprene bag gives no much protection | 10:01 |
lucent | yeah "chuck it in a backpack" test | 10:01 |

cehteh | made from plexiglas or so, the device will become inaccessible then but really well sealed | 10:06 |

cehteh | hehe | 10:07 |

cehteh | yes a friend if me :) | 10:22 |
cehteh | he does a lot for osm | 10:23 |
jX | so, on the n900, can I send a file (specifically a pic) via bluetooth to another device like my PC? I'm not seeing anything jump out at me. | 10:23 |
pupnik | i just started my first osm edit - 95 km^2. I am missing street names though. | 10:23 |
pupnik | Is that because i chose a large area (woods) or because osm2go doesn't do street labels? | 10:24 |
cehteh | i dont do osm .. well here in karlsruhe is not much left to map anyways :P | 10:24 |

jX | yeah, I found them | 10:45 |
KamuiN900 | im in lust | 10:45 |
KamuiN900 | time to jackerbate | 10:45 |
lucent | KamuiN900: ha | 10:45 |
lucent | I am stuck with EDGE | 10:45 |
jX | on my 6650 I could find a file, select the menu, and pick "Sent Via" | 10:45 |
lucent | no 3G anywhere around here | 10:45 |
jX | me to, AT&T fail | 10:45 |
lucent | Tmobile here, just no 3G service | 10:45 |
go1dfish | I got you all beat, I have no edge even where im at for the holidays :P | 10:46 |
go1dfish | no signal whatsoever, might as well pull out my sim card | 10:47 |
lucent | black rock city, nv? | 10:47 |
go1dfish | 3.5g on tmobile back at home though :) | 10:47 |
lucent | no wait, even they have a cell tower now | 10:47 |
go1dfish | nah, the outskirts of nowhere, north carolina | 10:47 |
lucent | ah okay | 10:47 |
lucent | tmobile has a convoluted web interface for billing and payments | 10:47 |
lucent | I liked how slick and clean AT&T's billing interface was | 10:48 |
go1dfish | never been on at&t | 10:48 |
lucent | too bad AT&T wanted $50/month for basic service no text no internet | 10:48 |
dmj7261 | My mom just got an n900. | 10:48 |
lucent | paying $45.06/month now for tmobile 500 minutes, no text, unlimited internet | 10:49 |
lucent | dmj7261: wow, your mom is pretty clued in? | 10:49 |
dmj7261 | She liked what she saw from mine. | 10:49 |
go1dfish | cool, im paying 60 a month for 500 min, unlimited text/internet no contract | 10:49 |
*** goshawk has joined #maemo | 10:49 | |
jX | yeah, she liked what she ssaw of mine, too. | 10:49 |
go1dfish | just about anyone in my family would end up throwing the n900 out a window | 10:50 |
go1dfish | there are some people who just shouldn't use computers | 10:50 |
go1dfish | i.e. people who don't want to think at all, about anything | 10:50 |
dmj7261 | We managed to save $15 a month going from verizon to tmobile while adding unlimited text for everybody and 2 data plans. | 10:50 |
lucent | tmobile is definitely the value if they have service where you are | 10:51 |
dmj7261 | My mom needs some help from me setting it up, but seems happy with it so far. | 10:51 |
lucent | dmj7261: oh, two N900's in the family? | 10:51 |
dmj7261 | It seems to be anywhere between half bars on 2g and full 3.5 depending on if I'm in a large metal framed building. | 10:52 |
dmj7261 | Yep. | 10:52 |
dmj7261 | That's new as of this morning. | 10:52 |
go1dfish | dmj7261: you tried sticking it in 3g only mode? | 10:52 |
dmj7261 | no I haven't. I didn't knwo you could. | 10:52 |
go1dfish | my house has good 3.5 g coverage, but relatively crappy 2g oddly enough, and in dual mode the n900 will still sometimes switch back and forth | 10:52 |
dmj7261 | hmm | 10:53 |
go1dfish | I get better battery life going 3g only (at home) | 10:53 |
lucent | I guess you'd need a 3g signal to do that htrick? | 10:53 |
go1dfish | yeah | 10:53 |
go1dfish | the similar concept applies though | 10:53 |
go1dfish | if you only have 2g coverage | 10:53 |
go1dfish | you save the power of periodically powering both radios to see whats available | 10:53 |
go1dfish | i.e. go into 2g only mode | 10:54 |
lucent | oh no way, what's the trick? documented anywhere? | 10:54 |
cehteh | there was some discussion on the forum, switching 2G/3G frequently is the worst | 10:54 |
dmj7261 | how do you do that? | 10:54 |
FIQ | are you stuck with qwerty when using N900? | 10:54 |
cehteh | settings -> telephone | 10:54 |
cehteh | i also only enabled 2g, dont need more in most cases and conserves power the best | 10:55 |
cehteh | some switcher from the status menu would be nice | 10:55 |
go1dfish | FIQ: instead of? | 10:55 |
lucent | oh here "Network mode > Dual" is not selectable | 10:55 |
cehteh | well most of the time i have celluar turned off :) | 10:55 |
dmj7261 | strangely, my mom was impressed with all the apps available | 10:55 |
FIQ | insteaf of dvorak/svorak/etc | 10:56 |
go1dfish | there is an optional onscreen keyboard (also qwerty) if thats what you mean | 10:56 |
cehteh | lucent: you have to stop the data connection to switch | 10:56 |
go1dfish | ah, im sure you can switch the keymaps, not sure how easy it would be though | 10:56 |
cehteh | just in case you have it on | 10:56 |
*** Meizirkki has joined #maemo | 10:56 | |
FIQ | ah | 10:56 |
dmj7261 | And the web browser is hard to beat. | 10:56 |
cehteh | well and with 2g you can either talk or internet but not both at the same time for many operators | 10:56 |
go1dfish | if a data connection is active you cant change the 2g/3g/dual mode option | 10:56 |
FIQ | will check it when i got one then. | 10:57 |
lucent | cehteh: thanks! does the trick like a pimp | 10:57 |
go1dfish | yeah, that's the biggest drawback of 2g IMO cehteh | 10:57 |
dmj7261 | On CDMA you can't do both even on 3g | 10:57 |
go1dfish | if you're on att it's a moot point though cause your SOL for 3g | 10:57 |
*** lbt has joined #maemo | 10:58 | |

dmj7261 | I find it's really useful to be able to stay on the line with somebody while checking something on the internet | 10:58 |
go1dfish | heh I used that as a 'feature' on my treo650 | 10:58 |
dmj7261 | I tested that on the DROID. | 10:58 |
go1dfish | didn't want to take calls, load up ssh and irssi on an active channel | 10:58 |
*** akshay has joined #maemo | 10:59 | |
* cehteh should try if he can take calls when data is active pon 2g | 10:59 | |
cehteh | well i take a nap .. | 10:59 |
dmj7261 | DROID failed that test miserably, n900 usually passes. | 10:59 |
lucent | folks, any ways to disable the "tap close -> power off device" when N900 is secured? | 10:59 |
go1dfish | dmj7261: it will work on the DROID with a wifi connection of course right? | 10:59 |
dmj7261 | I would think so. | 11:00 |
go1dfish | I haven't done much simultaneous data/voice on 3g | 11:00 |
lucent | button to power off device prompt would be fine, I'm finding myself waste moments all the time on that prompt when I tap the screen and it's secured | 11:00 |
cehteh | lucent: /etc/systemui/systemui.conf would be my bet | 11:00 |
lucent | great! thanks | 11:00 |
go1dfish | but I was talking to my mom on my phone will downloading my debian chroot over wifi | 11:00 |
cehteh | not sure .. just a guess | 11:00 |

ruskie | thanks... I actually removed mediaplayer and am running xmms2 for audio ;) | 11:57 |

kulve | ok | 12:00 |

ruskie | ifreq, xmms2 is client-server so you basically have the server running and clients controling it | 12:01 |
ifreq | hmm okay | 12:01 |
ifreq | newer thought that way | 12:01 |
ifreq | ruskie: what about mpd then? | 12:02 |

ruskie | what more do you expect from it? | 12:15 |
lucent | A *lot* more optimization and features like bitrate peeling | 12:15 |
pupnik | that* is how to do testing... | 12:15 |
kulve | lucent: ffmpeg's vorbis decoder seems to get optimizations quite nicely | 12:16 |
ruskie | kulve, wanna give that a try with mpg123 as well? | 12:16 |
lucent | fixes for the corner cases I run into - rather frequently - which result in bad sounding encoding | 12:16 |
kulve | ruskie: not really. It takes ages to run those :) | 12:16 |
ruskie | to bad... would've been interesting singe mpg123 has some arm optimisations | 12:16 |
lucent | when oggvorbis encoding works, it sounds a lot less accurate than the original but it sounds more pleasing | 12:16 |
lucent | when it fails, it fails hard. | 12:17 |
kulve | ruskie: more arm optimisations than the nokia's own decoder for n900? | 12:17 |
ruskie | no clue | 12:17 |
RST38h | kulve: ! | 12:17 |
lucent | sorry for the "passion bucket" passing judgement on the encoder based on my opinions | 12:17 |
RST38h | kulve: 93.6 hours on idle??? | 12:18 |
RST38h | that's almost 4 days | 12:18 |
lucent | cymbals and floor kicks never sound right with mp3 even at high bit rates... well that is all I think about mp3 and oggvorbis | 12:19 |
ruskie | lucent, considering both ogg and mp3 are lossy... maybe try mpc or wavpack or flac ;) | 12:19 |
RST38h | Ok, Ogg is a pig, nothing new there | 12:19 |
lucent | yeah this is stuff you will never really notice on earbuds | 12:19 |
ruskie | I generally consider ogg better at reproducing than mp3 | 12:19 |
lucent | on a PA system at a deejay gig, the difference is clear if you're paying attention | 12:20 |
lucent | yup | 12:20 |
RST38h | although ffvorbis seems to starve it well | 12:20 |
pupnik | mp3 applies a lowpass filter that i used to hear distinctly (lame allowed disabling). ogg didn't. | 12:20 |
lucent | it's not bad or good, I just think mp3 is awful sounding on real equipment | 12:20 |
lucent | with enough booze going around and a talent at the tables, the dancefloor knows not the difference | 12:21 |
lucent | =) | 12:21 |
ruskie | :) | 12:21 |
pupnik | a fun thing to try is raising the absolute-threshold-of-hearing in lame encoding to a very high level. The music rises out of pure blackness. | 12:21 |
RST38h | Well, that is also predictable | 12:21 |
lucent | yeah that constantly annoyed me is how most mp3 music tends to be encoded, all the quiet passages and details are "deleted" from the music. I go back to the CD to listen and it's like a completely different work of art | 12:22 |
pupnik | it is an effect one couldn't get before the perceptual encoding revolution | 12:22 |
RST38h | MP3 is a lossy compression format, and it loses upper frequencies first, based on the assumption that humans do not hear them well enough anyway | 12:22 |
ruskie | really depends on the human involved | 12:22 |
lucent | it's funny about that RST38h | 12:22 |
RST38h | This of course affects the percussive instruments first, as their waveforms are noisy and this contain a lot of upper frequencies | 12:22 |
lucent | the teenagers who CAN hear those frequencies are the widest adopters of mp3 to listen to the music | 12:23 |
RST38h | ruskie: well, older people hear even less of upper fqs than youngsters | 12:23 |
ruskie | RST38h, well again depends on the human involved | 12:23 |
pupnik | some low bitrate encoders just generated hf amplitude-shaped noise, iirc | 12:24 |
lucent | now those frequencies are not in the music anymore! | 12:24 |
RST38h | But the point is that even if you do not hear those frequencies, you still feel that something is different | 12:24 |
lucent | hm, that is less than scientific, I would agree though | 12:25 |
lucent | one album I enjoy listening to gives me a headache if I fall asleep when it's playing, and the format was encoded mp3 | 12:26 |
lucent | FLAC (lossless) always left me in a deep sleep | 12:26 |
RST38h | lucent: Once you get scientific about human ears, the picture becomes waaaay more complicated | 12:26 |
RST38h | Hint: the exact shape of your ear, incuding ridges, matters | 12:27 |
lucent | yeah I'm gonna stab in the dark and say that, how do you know if something is above or below you by listening to it? | 12:27 |
lucent | it's not some immediately middle-of-the-nyquist frequency only | 12:27 |
lucent | and if you throw out stuff that isn't exactly melodic, then sure I get the idea of what a song is about still | 12:28 |
lucent | won't be the same experience for me though | 12:28 |
lucent | the best though for me is to get back that full experience without spending a thousand dollars on crazy equipment | 12:29 |
pupnik | HRTF | 12:30 |
lucent | I won't go on about it being better or worse if it's $35 and a uSD card :) | 12:30 |
lucent | that's about what I got my Sansa Fuze player for | 12:30 |
lucent | original firmware plays FLAC with an update from the manufacturer | 12:31 |
lucent | alternately it has a working port of Rockbox firmware | 12:31 |
*** cbrake_away has joined #maemo | 12:31 | |
pupnik | It's kind of cool how #maemo folks are savvy on tech in general. | 12:31 |
* lucent :) | 12:33 | |
flux | my rockbox-compatible iriver died some time ago. I once wondered if the SDL-port of Rockbox would be usable in N900.. | 12:33 |
lucent | I'm only knowing what I have spent money and time on, to be fair | 12:33 |
lucent | flux: hmm, wonder if it's worth the time and effort tradeoff to get working though | 12:34 |
lucent | battery life would suffer greatly | 12:34 |
lucent | flux: I strongly suggest getting a Sansa Fuze to run rockbox on if you are an N900 owner | 12:34 |
lucent | the microSD interchangability is pretty keen | 12:34 |
flux | lucent, I'm pretty sure it _works_, because there are other SDL-based programs for N900 and rockbox has SDL-support (for development purposes), but I'm wondering its usability | 12:35 |
lucent | can only guess, and at that not informed, no further comment sorry | 12:35 |
flux | lucent, I'd rather not have an another device in my pockets, but had you given me that hint a year ago I would've definitely gone that way :) | 12:35 |
lucent | ha! well the Fuze is great battery life and takes microSD cards, I mean it's a must have in my inventory of gadgets | 12:36 |
lucent | I use it in place of a CD player, not as a media player | 12:36 |
flux | (I also got a sony bt headset for my headphones, so as long as I have n900 somewhere near, it works decently) | 12:36 |
lucent | it does not play video worth a damn | 12:36 |
pupnik | you read much head-fi forums lucent ? | 12:37 |
lucent | hm, not in tune with the hi-fi stuff sorry | 12:37 |
lucent | my background with audio is hobby home studio stuff | 12:37 |
pupnik | they get deep into players, dacs and headphones | 12:37 |
pupnik | sansa fuze $120+ here.. tch. | 12:38 |
lucent | yuck, I got mine from a liquidation website | 12:39 |
lucent | well I bought 3 of the 2gb models | 12:39 |
lucent | internal storage isn't the point so I go with the cheapest refurb I could find | 12:39 |
lucent | some woot.com retinkers :) | 12:39 |
*** mlpug has joined #maemo | 12:41 | |
lucent | in so far as improving the N900 goes, I'd be looking to get turntable (Serato Scratch) type control for audio playback and a lot of laptop only features | 12:42 |
lucent | not done here | 12:42 |
lucent | lack of multi-point touch screen is also a killer for the great niche "synthesizer" breath controller app I've seen on Apple products | 12:43 |
lucent | use the microphone as a pressure sensor | 12:43 |
lucent | multi touch capacitive screen allowing for finger positions like on a winded instrument | 12:44 |

Macer | wtf | 15:57 |
Macer | how can you sell a $50 coin for 19.95? | 15:57 |
Macer | :) | 15:57 |
SpeedEvil | because it's not legal tender to $50 | 15:58 |
SpeedEvil | and it's gold plated with bugger all gold | 15:58 |
pupnik | 31 milligrams | 15:59 |
SpeedEvil | Each 2010 $50 Gold Buffalo Tribute Proof comes complete with an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity, verifying that each piece is clad in 31 mgs. of Pure 24 KT Gold, | 15:59 |
Macer | ah | 15:59 |
Macer | "clad" | 15:59 |
Macer | is that another word for plated? :) | 15:59 |
Macer | why do they call it a $50 coin then? | 16:00 |
SpeedEvil | Or about 1 dollar worth of gold | 16:00 |
pupnik | i was just calculating that | 16:00 |
SpeedEvil | because it's based on a gold coin that when struck was worth $50 | 16:00 |
Macer | oh | 16:00 |
SpeedEvil | had a face value of $50 rather | 16:00 |
Macer | where can you get real gold coins? | 16:00 |
Macer | :) | 16:00 |
Macer | so it is a fake replica coin? | 16:01 |
SpeedEvil | many places | 16:01 |
SpeedEvil | yes. | 16:01 |
RST38h | "you can reserve your own copy of the 2010 $50 Buffalo Gold Clad Tribute Proof in 31 mg of pure gold." | 16:01 |
Macer | how is that legal? | 16:01 |
RST38h | Keyword is COPY | 16:01 |
Macer | i thought copying coins was illegal or something :) | 16:01 |
Macer | how are they selling fake coins? :) | 16:01 |
SpeedEvil | http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/buffalo24k/?action=amBuffBull | 16:01 |
RST38h | Recreates the first .9999 fine 24-karat gold coin struck by the U.S. Government and the purest gold coin ever minted! <== RECREATES | 16:01 |
SpeedEvil | for example | 16:01 |
RST38h | Macer: As long as it is clearly labelled as a copy, it is legal | 16:02 |
Macer | RST38h: hahaha | 16:02 |
Macer | RST38h: in the ad it is | 16:02 |
SpeedEvil | However the above will be around $1000 | 16:02 |
Macer | is "copy" on the coin itself? :) | 16:02 |
SpeedEvil | not $50 | 16:02 |
RST38h | Macer: basically yes | 16:02 |
Macer | really? | 16:02 |
SpeedEvil | It does not have to have copy on it if it is not current coinage. | 16:02 |
pupnik | STRICT LIMIT OF ONLY 5 PER CUSTOMER! | 16:03 |
Macer | pupnik: yeah like they don't have a trillion of the damn things :) | 16:03 |
Hukka | Any people knowledgeable about (py)gst around? I'm still getting "dsp_thread: failed waiting for events" errors when trying to run pygst examples | 16:03 |
Macer | SpeedEvil: but the actual coins are at the very least worth face value | 16:03 |
Macer | $2 bills are legal tender which i believe aren't made anymore | 16:04 |
pupnik | price can only be guaranteed for 7 days! | 16:04 |
SpeedEvil | Macer: More like 20* with current gold prices | 16:04 |
*** jza has left #maemo | 16:04 | |
Macer | so if i start printing $2 bills and say in an ad "no real" i can sell them for $19.95? :) | 16:04 |
pupnik | Would you pay for $50 dollars of gas with a coin worth $1000? | 16:04 |
Macer | pupnik: depends on how desperate i am for gas :) | 16:05 |
Hukka | zaheerm: I can get the test image to work, but no actual video. Have you managed that on pygst? | 16:05 |
Macer | i just dont understand how they are creating replicas of coins | 16:05 |

Macer | i'm looking at them now seeing what would be good to buy. i'd prefer to buy uniform sized bars | 16:17 |
Macer | aus had a 20 kilo year of the tiger gold coin | 16:18 |
Macer | 20 kilo?! thats a coin? | 16:18 |
Macer | that has to be the size of a small plate | 16:19 |
SpeedEvil | gold coins and bars are essentially sold by weight | 16:19 |
tigert | hm | 16:19 |
SpeedEvil | there is very little difference in price | 16:19 |
tigert | this twitter messaging plugin is pretty interesting | 16:19 |
*** crashanddie has quit IRC | 16:19 | |
Macer | SpeedEvil: i know. i am looking at shape ;) i don't want coins | 16:20 |
Caesium | 100g gold bars are reasonable overhead | 16:20 |
Macer | bars are better.. just want to make sure there is some sort of standard size | 16:20 |
Caesium | anything lower and the premiums shoot up | 16:20 |
SpeedEvil | Macer: get a n900 shaped bar. | 16:20 |
Macer | 100g is about the size of a cigarette box? | 16:21 |
Caesium | heh no | 16:21 |
Caesium | about the size of a CF card :) | 16:21 |
Macer | credit card? | 16:21 |
Macer | ah ok | 16:21 |
SpeedEvil | gold has a density of 15g/cc or so | 16:21 |
Macer | that's a good size. let me see if i can find some | 16:21 |
SpeedEvil | so 8ccish | 16:21 |
Macer | SpeedEvil: the 10kilo "coin" was funny | 16:21 |
Macer | "call for pricing" | 16:21 |
Macer | what do you do with something like that? hang it on the wall and put clock hands on it? | 16:22 |
SpeedEvil | It's probably not a significant premium over bars | 16:22 |
Arkenoi | rst38h: btw i purchased 4x2 uncut sheet of $2 bank notes | 16:24 |
Arkenoi | made fun of people around sitting with it in a cafe comparing numbers | 16:25 |

Macer | no | 16:29 |
Macer | Chicago | 16:29 |
Macer | i'm looking for places in the city now. some measure in oz and some in g | 16:30 |
Macer | you would think there would be a standard for this | 16:30 |
Caesium | usually coins are oz, bars in g | 16:30 |
Caesium | but either is acceptable | 16:30 |
Macer | yeah. they are measuing bars in oz | 16:30 |
Caesium | http://www.goldline.co.uk/investmentBarsPage.page?&goldBarIdx=5 is where I buy mine | 16:31 |

Mysterious | I would like to install the libssl-dev ackage on my n900 device. May I use the debian source package or do I need to use some kind of ported libssl-dev | 16:38 |
Macer | These prices are based upon the spot gold price of: $0.00 | 16:40 |
Macer | haha. web site fail | 16:40 |
Macer | i should order a 30bars at $0.00 | 16:40 |
Macer | blah. online shopping for this sucks. i'll just find a place in chicago | 16:40 |
Caesium | cheap at twice the price :D | 16:40 |
Caesium | depending on the size bars you're getting you should be able to get about 4% premium over spot | 16:41 |

* RST38h needs to know a few things | 17:58 | |
LuciusMare | oh | 17:58 |
RST38h | 1) Do you want to keep or remove the channel title? | 17:58 |
LuciusMare | lcuk: hangs for a while,then quits | 17:59 |
jeremiah | Keep! | 17:59 |
jebba | RST38h: does it matter? yes. Saves space on NAND. | 17:59 |
jebba | in fact, i just deleted it last night to save space. | 17:59 |
RST38h | 2) Do you want folks to join #maemo at freenode by default? Or maybe #n900bies as the default channel? | 17:59 |
lcuk | LuciusMare, you sound like you have borkened your browser | 17:59 |
jebba | RST38h: i want optification ;) it's easy enough to add. | 17:59 |
ifreq | 1) yes 2) dont care | 17:59 |
lcuk | does maps start | 17:59 |
RST38h | jebba: Well, it is a pretty small package, so I would not be obsessing with it | 17:59 |
frals | joining people to channel default is evil | 17:59 |
jeremiah | jebba: Good stuff on maemo-devel you sent, thanks | 17:59 |
lcuk | (am i correct in remembering it usses the same engine) | 17:59 |
LuciusMare | lcuk: ow | 17:59 |
*** somecodehere has joined #maemo | 17:59 | |
LuciusMare | lcuk: reflash? | 17:59 |
ifreq | yeh or either autojoin to any server | 17:59 |
RST38h | frals: the alternative is making them work through XChat's servers list | 18:00 |
jebba | jeremiah: np. G also suggested using "puppet" to manage configs mixed with "git" to track changes. | 18:00 |
lcuk | LuciusMare, if you like, its probably gonna be easier, but if you have knowledge to try diagnose | 18:00 |
lcuk | it might help people in future | 18:00 |
jebba | RST38h: ya, but all those small packages add up. What is size of /usr/bin/xchat* ? Total install size on NAND? | 18:00 |
RST38h | jebba Depends. For FBReader I am somewhat afraid to optify, given how it works | 18:00 |
ifreq | RST38h: yeah or type /server plaplaaa** | 18:00 |
RST38h | jebba: don't obsess yourself too much | 18:01 |
* lcuk will be optifying the entire liqbase folder in one go *gulp* | 18:01 | |
javispedro | just put auto in debian/optify and let testers handle that | 18:01 |
*** pH5 has joined #maemo | 18:01 | |
jeremiah | jebba: Well, that is another great idea. But the institutional inertia is tough to overcome. | 18:01 |
jeremiah | I'll suggest it though. | 18:01 |
jebba | RST38h: what do you mean don't obsess yourself to much? that makes no sense. I hit 100% all the time. | 18:01 |
RST38h | jebba: You really want to clean up your /? Figure out the way to cull localizations cache | 18:01 |
*** pH5_ has quit IRC | 18:01 | |
BluesLee | okay, does someone run ankimaemi on an nxxx device here? | 18:01 |
RobertH[AU] | hey everyone, greetings from Aus | 18:01 |
jebba | RST38h: that would entail rebuilding packages that I dont have the source to. | 18:01 |
RST38h | jebba: Probably means that you 1) have some stuff there taht you are not using or 2) there is a couple of huge packages there | 18:02 |
RST38h | jebba: No. | 18:02 |
jebba | RST38h: I'm not using them!??! | 18:02 |
lcuk | oh rst | 18:02 |
*** Andy80 has joined #maemo | 18:02 | |
javispedro | RST38h: though if it's > 500 KiB it will just never enter extras due to negative/blocker votes from people not here. | 18:02 |
* RST38h has tons of crap installed and is still at 80% | 18:02 | |
lcuk | people put what they like on | 18:02 |
RST38h | even 75% really | 18:02 |
Andy80 | hello | 18:02 |
RST38h | javispedro: depends | 18:02 |
RobertH[AU] | can someone tell me if the source for the control panel is available? or where to look to find this out | 18:02 |
lcuk | even i know that | 18:02 |
*** bib38 has left #Maemo | 18:02 | |
RST38h | javispedro: it is 240kB or so right now though | 18:03 |
*** Andy80 has quit IRC | 18:03 | |
javispedro | wow. | 18:03 |
jebba | RST38h: for instance rtcom-call-ui Depends on a billion l10n files. I can't remove those files due to deps. I can't rebuild rtcom-call-ui because I don't have source. For example. | 18:03 |
RST38h | javispedro Surprisingly, XCHat is not a very large package | 18:03 |
RST38h | jebba: Yes, you can | 18:03 |
jebba | RST38h: it is soooooooo easy to optify. Like 2 lines. | 18:03 |
RST38h | jebba: rm -f | 18:03 |
jebba | RST38h: ... | 18:03 |
lcuk | the .tar.gz for xchat is 4.1mb | 18:04 |
jebba | RST38h: why not just optify your package though? it's such a well known problem with such an easy solution... | 18:04 |
lcuk | i know thats not code | 18:04 |
javispedro | jebba: if it's really less than 500 KiB then I see no need to optify, really. The guidelines say so. | 18:04 |
javispedro | (or used to say so :P ) | 18:04 |
*** trbs has joined #maemo | 18:05 | |
*** BluesLee has quit IRC | 18:05 | |
RST38h | jebba: Because a lot of times, optify breaks package | 18:05 |
lcuk | what happens if i optify a folder that some of its contents have already been optified | 18:05 |
ShadowJK | isn't it simpler to just compile with with --prefix in /opt somewhere... | 18:06 |
ifreq | why packages cant be installed by default into /opt/maemo/bin instead of symlinking? | 18:06 |
jebba | RST38h: in the case of something simple like xchat it's not going to break. Easy enough to test too. | 18:06 |
ifreq | +adding it to PATH | 18:06 |
RST38h | jebba: So, if you are having problems with / space, I would start with du -r / |sort -rn |more | 18:06 |
javispedro | ifreq: because they break even harder. | 18:06 |
ifreq | javispedro: okay, just hate symlinking | 18:06 |

*** jpe__ has joined #maemo | 18:07 | |
RST38h | ShadowJK Possible for some packages | 18:07 |
jebba | echo auto > debian/optify Build-Depends: maemo-optify *DONE* | 18:07 |
RST38h | ShadowJK: not sure about xchat though | 18:07 |
jebba | so easy | 18:07 |
* RST38h will look at optifying xchat and fbreader, when he has time | 18:07 | |
ShadowJK | xchat even runs from the source directory in your ~ after you compile it | 18:07 |
RST38h | that is all I can offer you, jebba. sorry. | 18:08 |
lcuk | "du -r" not available in busybox | 18:08 |
jebba | I'll send you a patch then RST38h ;) | 18:08 |
ShadowJK | xchat would need that settings-crashfix patch too :) | 18:08 |
lcuk | +100 | 18:08 |
RST38h | lcuk: just do du | 18:08 |
*** hannes__ has joined #maemo | 18:08 | |
RST38h | lcuk: -r not necessary it looks | 18:08 |
jebba | ShadowJK: that got fixed in last build it hink | 18:08 |
lcuk | k :) | 18:08 |
RST38h | ShadowJK: I just fixed that | 18:08 |
RST38h | ShadowJK: Get the newest build from extras-devel | 18:09 |
ShadowJK | ah | 18:09 |
wolf^ | javispedro, how does changing --prefix breaks packages? | 18:09 |
RST38h | ShadowJK In fact, that is why jebba is complaining to me and not to qwerty | 18:09 |
jebba | xchat uses 692.0kxcha | 18:09 |
jebba | xchat uses 692.0k on NAND | 18:09 |
jebba | so can't go in extras | 18:09 |
RST38h | jebba: xchat uses ~240kB on NAND. / is compressed. | 18:09 |
lcuk | du lists the total size of all folders? | 18:09 |
RST38h | jebba: And you do not need to use it if you do not want to, ok? | 18:10 |
RST38h | lcuk: Yes | 18:10 |
jebba | RST38h: that's not how the "500k limit" is calculated | 18:10 |
lcuk | cool | 18:10 |
ShadowJK | all those tiny things add up though :-( | 18:10 |
RST38h | lcuk: sort -rn will sort it in decreasing order | 18:10 |
jebba | RST38h: ok, if you don't want to help your end users i'll just rebuiild it. Lame. | 18:10 |
lcuk | yeah i got that bit lol | 18:10 |
lcuk | just never used du | 18:10 |
ifreq | wolf^: yeah makes me wonder too :P | 18:10 |
lcuk | some packages dont have autotools | 18:10 |
RST38h | jebba: I tend to ignore obsessed people. | 18:10 |
ShadowJK | I'm at like 30 megs free with gpodder (with optified python), less, xchat, optified mplayer, openssh, gpsjinni, location-test | 18:11 |
wolf^ | ifreq, the one thing I can think of is the need to manually move desktop and icon files | 18:11 |
jebba | RST38h: obsessed? wtf. | 18:11 |
lcuk | having a working phone is important | 18:11 |
RST38h | lcuk: There is 20+MB locale cache file that I would be very interested to cull, but not tools to do that and no documentation on it | 18:11 |
lcuk | very important | 18:11 |
jebba | i didnt invent the opt thing. i dont like it either, but packages should be optfied in this situation, its that simple. | 18:11 |
*** LuciusMare has quit IRC | 18:11 | |
RST38h | ShadowJK: Something is wrong | 18:11 |
jebba | RST38h: havent you seen so many brick reports on talk.m.o? | 18:11 |
RST38h | ShadowJK: I have at least 42MB free on / with a lot more stuff installed | 18:12 |
jebba | good for you | 18:12 |
jebba | what about others? | 18:12 |
jebba | did you document how you did that? | 18:12 |
ShadowJK | So like, if one were to make optified versions of stuff in sdk-tools, would the autobuilder barf? :-) | 18:12 |
lcuk | i love 3how in modern times we are stressing about <50mb of space | 18:12 |
RST38h | ShadowJK: do du | sort thing - you may be surprised by a few things | 18:12 |
frals | luck: aye :D | 18:12 |
wolf^ | RST38h, which locale cache file? | 18:13 |
RST38h | wolf: Do not remember the name, gimme a moment | 18:13 |
ShadowJK | maybe for maemo6 there'll be outright ban on installing anything on rootfs :) | 18:13 |
lcuk | RST38h, would you accept a tested patch? | 18:13 |
RST38h | lcuk: Patch for what? | 18:13 |
lcuk | optification | 18:13 |
*** IffeN900 has joined #maemo | 18:13 | |
lcuk | ie you dont have to work | 18:14 |
RST38h | lcuk: the echo auto > debian/optify thing? | 18:14 |
lcuk | i dont know which patch | 18:14 |
lcuk | jebba mentioned sending you one | 18:14 |
lcuk | someone file a bug report | 18:14 |
RST38h | lcuk: well, as far as I know, it is not a patch, he was sarcastic | 18:15 |
lcuk | then it can be handled with a patch | 18:15 |
IffeN900 | uh xchat now looks a bit :( rather remove userlist instead of showing it like this rst38h | 18:15 |
jebba | well, easy enough to do the patch. | 18:15 |
lcuk | RST38h, sarcastic or not, would you accept it | 18:15 |
RST38h | lcuk: He suggested to run it through maemo-optify. There is no way to say if it is gonna work, although I can try it | 18:15 |
* lcuk has a bugreport for liqbase optification that will be integrated before the next release | 18:15 | |
RST38h | lcuk: Also, the results of maemo-optify are usually pretty ugly | 18:15 |

RST38h | lcuk: So, even if you file a bug for optifying XChat, who is gonna look at it? | 18:19 |
RST38h | wolf: checking | 18:19 |
lcuk | RST38h, its something you can happily deflect people with | 18:19 |
lcuk | they can look at what you have tried | 18:19 |

RST38h | wolf: Well it is some data file, I kinda expected a script or a tarball to compile from :) | 18:20 |
lcuk | without having to turn blue in the face | 18:20 |
wolf^ | RST38h, it's spec file for rpm generation | 18:20 |

LuciusMare | jebba: third step | 20:28 |
LuciusMare | i follow the steps in order | 20:28 |
jebba | GAN900 if you don't hold down U it just boots up when plugged in to USB | 20:28 |
GAN900 | LuciusMare, but it makes it a bit more forgiving with the timing, so since you're having trouble . . . | 20:28 |
GAN900 | jebba, there's a 2 second window where it waits for the flasher. :) | 20:28 |
jebba | ah well.... | 20:28 |
GAN900 | jebba, so if you've started the flasher it'll flash. | 20:29 |
LuciusMare | okay | 20:29 |
* GAN900 has been flashing tablets since 2005. ;) | 20:29 | |
LuciusMare | so i held U | 20:29 |
*** idra has left #maemo | 20:29 | |
LuciusMare | there is a very dark screen with nokia and usb logo in corner,right? | 20:29 |

Gadgetoid_mbp | Oh wait | 20:53 |
heinx | hmm.. the irc plugin: account-plugin-idle seems to be now missing from the im accounts list, after the update | 20:53 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | I hold God in the same regard as people who know what they're talking about on internet forums... both could conceivably exist, but I doubt it. | 20:54 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | heinx: There seems to be a dodgy new one that conflicts with every sodding account plugin I've already got installed for some reason | 20:54 |

heinx | lcuk, too much maintenance | 20:59 |
heinx | i would actually only require some kind of alert when somebody is saying something to me | 20:59 |

lcuk | DocScrutinizer, RST38h | 21:05 |
heinx | and it seems to get stuck so that it seems ok, but it's disconnected until you notice it | 21:05 |
shiny_ | Well, I've been doing some work with Pluthon and the maemo-pc-connectivity kit, and all of a sudden, my N900 doesn't seem to want to output any audio. I'm not sure whether this is actual cause-and-effect. Audio not working for whatever reason seems to be causing odd behaviour elsewhere, such as phonecalls being speaker by default, and the browser consuming 100% cpu (though not sure if this is related.) | 21:05 |
shiny_ | (I realise the answer might be "reflash" which is fine, but wondered if anyone had experienced anything similar.) | 21:06 |

GAN900 | SplasPood, meh, after enough years listening to lines like that it wears thin. | 21:32 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | I'll swap it for an iPhone 3G, har | 21:32 |
lucent | I wanted a device to use a full web browser on that fits in my pocket, and has a cellular modem | 21:32 |
GAN900 | SplasPood, what should I do? Convince him there's hope and he should keep it? | 21:32 |
SplasPood | GAN900: He has valid points... Obviously the future may bring solutions to his concerns/problems, but it also may not. | 21:33 |
lucent | N900 is worth the $500 investment to me | 21:33 |
SplasPood | GAN900: thats what he was lookin for ya | 21:33 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | I wanted the best smartphone on the market, so the N900 is worth the £350 investment to me | 21:33 |
SplasPood | I'm a bit more of a dedicated tinkerer | 21:33 |
SplasPood | but I have similar concerns | 21:33 |
Caesium | £350? you import it? | 21:33 |
* Caesium couldn't be bothered and got it from expansys at full whack | 21:33 | |
SplasPood | the device shows lots of promise, but will that promise come to fruition? I wonder that myself. | 21:33 |
GAN900 | SplasPood, the result is more likely to be that his expectations get built up, they don't get met and he's pissed when the return deadline passes. | 21:33 |
lucent | Gadgetoid_mbp: "the best" ? I consider the Neo Freerunner to be the best because of its open design through and through | 21:33 |
GAN900 | SplasPood, so, no, totally not worth it. | 21:33 |
*** adalal has joined #maemo | 21:33 | |
Caesium | he can always buy another one later. | 21:33 |
SplasPood | GAN900: Thats his problem when he makes his personal decision | 21:34 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | Caesium: Nokia UK store with their stupid broken discount voucher system | 21:34 |
GAN900 | SplasPood, either you believe in the platform or you don't. | 21:34 |
lucent | N900 is a compromise for me | 21:34 |
Caesium | Gadgetoid_mbp: bleh, missed that one :) | 21:34 |
SpeedEvil | LULUCENluclucen what are you basing that on. The couple of hours of reading datasheets I've done today says theere are no seperate USB host pins. | 21:34 |
SpeedEvil | And combining that with the limited reading f the driver finding no appropriate support for switching into host mode seems to lead to it not being implemented in software as one possible conclusion. | 21:35 |
GAN900 | lucent, warranty voiding does not equal "not possible". :) | 21:35 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | lucent: Pffft, what would you know! you're only a modem :D | 21:35 |
SpeedEvil | liuluce: freerunner has _MAJOR_ hardware suckage in several ways. | 21:35 |
SpeedEvil | luce: for example - the graphics card is connected over a 7 megabyute/second bus, that is shared with the SD, and locks up the CPU when you access it. | 21:36 |
SpeedEvil | So youSo push 3 meg a second to the graphics card, and you've lost 40% of CPU | 21:36 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | SpeedEvil: Did they design it by putting all the chips into a washing machine full of epoxy resin? | 21:36 |
lucent | that's to my point though, an open design (in any state of development) is "best" to me | 21:36 |
*** bobbyd has joined #maemo | 21:37 | |

angasule | I'm reformatting /dev/mmcblk0, should I keep it as fat or switch to ext2? | 21:37 |
lucent | Gadgetoid_mbp: that was -almost- shuttleworth-ian | 21:38 |
SpeedEvil | Gadgetoid_ many mobile phone parts are onblu avilable in silly quantitieds, and docs are almost unobtainable. | 21:38 |
bobbyd | I'm definitely in the "loving the n900" camp :) | 21:38 |
SpeedEvil | gadge: the GPU was picked on the baseis - as I can guess - of a 2 page spec-sheet. Which lied a lot. | 21:38 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | The N900 should have come ext2/3 formatted with a label on it saying "use a fsking fat formatted memory card n00b!" | 21:39 |
SpeedEvil | Gadgetoid: It turned out that performance with the GPU was at best a wash with the earlier revision with a clock half as fast. And adding the GPU cost a year of delays. | 21:39 |
angasule | I have an N810 | 21:40 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | SpeedEvil: These "open" projects seem awash with fail | 21:40 |
angasule | and I'm talking about the internal memory, btw | 21:40 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | Likewise | 21:40 |
SplasPood | I have a N770 sitting in the closet all lonely and feelin useless ;) | 21:40 |
SpeedEvil | Gadgetoid: It wasn't paradoxically the open part of openmoko which failed IMO. | 21:40 |
SplasPood | I used to use it with fbreader to read books | 21:40 |
SpeedEvil | Gadgetoid: it was the paid part, which failed utterly to communicate to the community what it was not doing. | 21:40 |
angasule | Gadgetoid_mbp: that didn't quite answer my question, though, any disadvantages to using ext2? | 21:40 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | The internal memory on all should just have been ext formatted, considering you can still access a fat memory card over USB | 21:40 |
GAN900 | SplasPood, "N770" isn't a thing. | 21:41 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | angasule: lack of USB access in Winblows, not sure about OSX/Linux though | 21:41 |
SplasPood | GAN900: eh? | 21:41 |
angasule | Gadgetoid_mbp: that's all? thanks, I don't use windows, I'll check with linux | 21:41 |
GAN900 | angasule, swap resides on fat. | 21:41 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | Not that I've tried it myself, despite dumping some of my root files onto the internal memory and symlinking them | 21:41 |
GAN900 | angasule, swap resides on fat. | 21:42 |
GAN900 | angasule, if you switch the whole thing to ext (use ext3) then you'll have to enable swap manually. | 21:42 |
angasule | GAN900: I'm pretty sure swap is not activated by default? :? | 21:42 |
bobbyd | has anyone tried all the browsers available for the n900 atm? I'm looking for something more lightweight and faster than microb / fennec. | 21:42 |
angasule | I don't want ext3, ext2 is fine | 21:42 |
GAN900 | angasule, meaning you can't turn it on in the GUI. | 21:42 |
SpeedEvil | angasule: yes it is | 21:42 |
GAN900 | angasule, you want ext3. | 21:42 |
SpeedEvil | bobbyd: lynx | 21:42 |
*** warp10 has joined #maemo | 21:42 | |

angasule | SpeedEvil: hmm, ok, in the control thingie? I thought it was disabled, I'll check | 21:43 |
GAN900 | angasule, ext2 is likely to lead to more flash wear with the amount of wd resets diablo tends to get. | 21:43 |

GAN900 | SplasPood, 770 wasn't part of Nseries. | 21:44 |

GAN900 | AakashPatel, should. | 21:45 |

SpeedEvil | fat can't do files >2G can it. | 21:45 |
* SpeedEvil stabs that killing his backup | 21:45 | |
angasule | the internal memory is 2G anyway :) | 21:45 |
adalal | AakashPatel: i'm trying to figure that bit out :P | 21:45 |
SpeedEvil | angasule: I mean on the external | 21:46 |
jebba | http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Jebba/Fedora Ok, the HOWTO is there now | 21:46 |
angasule | the internal is used for apps and such, right? | 21:46 |
adalal | SpeedEvil: fat can't do 4gb | 21:46 |
adalal | SpeedEvil: Max file size on fat is 4GB minus 1 byte | 21:46 |
adalal | or 4GB minus 1 block size | 21:47 |
*** bobbyd has quit IRC | 21:47 | |
angasule | meh, so I have to choose between ext2 and fat, I guess, unless there is an easy way to format it to ext3? | 21:47 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | jebba: an interesting curiosity, but can you DO anything with Fedora yet? | 21:48 |
angasule | hmm, I'll make an ext2 and look for a way to turn on journalling later | 21:48 |
jebba | Gadgetoid_mbp: not that i know of ;) | 21:48 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | jebba: Well done, you win at geek! | 21:48 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | ~jebba++ | 21:48 |
jebba | heh | 21:48 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | Now put Ubuntu on it, with a gnome desktop, har! | 21:49 |
crashanddie | ext3 doesn't provide anything useful tbh | 21:49 |
jebba | ya, except that journaling thing | 21:49 |
crashanddie | which is useless on a user-mounted partition | 21:49 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | journaling, who needs journaling, if I wanted to remember what I'd changed, I'd write it down in a notebook! | 21:49 |
AakashPatel | lol | 21:50 |
jebba | crashanddie: why on earth is journaling useless because it's user mounted? why would that make a difference? | 21:50 |
adalal | journaling helps in read / search speeds | 21:50 |
angasule | Gadgetoid_mbp: I tried using a notebook to help my memory, but I kept forgetting to write things down, or I'd forget to read it, or I'd forget the notebook | 21:50 |
jebba | uh, and in crash recovery.... | 21:50 |
angasule | I think I lost the notebook, actually | 21:50 |
adalal | and defragmenting | 21:50 |
angasule | I wish I was kidding :P | 21:50 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | Yeah I always pop up textedit/notepad/gedit to write things down | 21:50 |
AakashPatel | hmm does linux "defragment"? | 21:50 |
AakashPatel | like in windoze? | 21:51 |
Gadgetoid_mbp | And end up with lots of files called "notes" or "more notes" | 21:51 |
crashanddie | jebba: well, what's the point of journaling for a storage unit? (I'm assuming we're talking about the 32gb storage partition, and not system) | 21:51 |
cehteh | AakashPatel: a lot less and for solid state media it doesnt matter | 21:51 |
*** eichi has quit IRC | 21:51 | |
