*** panaggio has joined #maemo00:10
Stskeepswe can't build universe or mp3 linking stuff atm either, no matter how oss00:10
*** jon1012 has quit IRC00:11
Imrahilit may sound a bit weird, but do you know a possible way to get maemo running on a motorola milestone/droid?00:12
ptlactually that's an oss coder/decoder that does mp300:13
ml-mobileoh, that's how to get to the "slide to unlock" screen00:13
Imrahiland I sincerely hope this message wasn't posted trice ^^ I got a nickserv error message all the time ;)00:13
ShadowJKStskeeps, can't build anything that dlopen()s a codec at runtime?00:14
QuibusHmm, I have a build dep on stx2any... is that available somewhere?00:14
anprDocScrutinizer have not found maemo mentioned there00:15
GeneralAntillesImrahil, no. If you want Maemo, buy an N900. :)00:16
DocScrutinizer51neither is it explicitly excluded from ovi maps00:16
anprdont you think it would be bloody stupid of them not to make it on maemo ?00:16
*** netvandal has joined #maemo00:17
ImrahilGeneralAntilles: that's kind of the problem ^^ I can only buy it from a local reseller (who offers financing) and Nokia fails to deliver...00:17

SpeedEvilslightly00:19
ShadowJKanpr, I suspect we will see paid-for navigation on Maemo Ovi Maps and never see paid-for navigation on Maemo Ovi Maps. How far away they're from completing navigation in Maemo ovi maps is another question.. and also whether it'll arrive on Maemo 5 :)00:19
SpeedEvilImrahil: in short - no. maemo has lots of  closed source nokia bits. Neglecting the difficulty in proting00:19
Imrahil:(00:20
SpeedEvilShadowJK: It's almost certainly a payment issue, not a difficulty one.00:20
Imrahilwell thanks for the answer, anyways00:20
jebbaStskeeps: how do you do it now if you can't use OBS?00:20
SpeedEvilShadowJK: it costs lots more to license maps for use with turn-by-turn than just maps00:20
*** gunni has quit IRC00:20
ShadowJKI'm not convinced they have it working :)00:21
GeneralAntillesSpeedEvil, Moto is more at fault than Nokia. :)00:21

anprbecause i see them making ovi maps free for symbian devices00:28
oscillikpwnguin: not stock Android 2.0, nope. i believe someone is working on modding it to work though00:28
*** papo has quit IRC00:28
anpri am not worried about maemo 6 on n90000:28
GeneralAntillespwnguin, well, excepting Mer.00:28
anpri never thought it will happen00:28
pwnguinGeneralAntilles: how does Mer plan to cope with the GSM module?00:29
anpri just wish to know about ovi maps 3.0300:29
GeneralAntillespwnguin, helllooooo, oFono.00:29
pwnguinneat.00:30
QuibusHow do I let a package use debhelper7 during build?00:30
GeneralAntillespwnguin, what's there now should also be workable if a UI is slapped on top of it.00:30
*** zerojay has joined #maemo00:31

anprDocScrutinizer which device do u have ?00:34
DocScrutinizerN90000:34
anpryeah, it still has not spoken nav probably00:34
anprn900 does not have the newest version of ovi maps00:34
anprwhich support all those features for free00:34
ShadowJKit's not the same ovi maps00:34
pupnikwolf^: as far as i know, the most advanced screen blitting work (open source) has been done in DrNokSnes - check source00:34
oscillikpeople keep, for some unknown reason, thinking that the version of Ovi Maps on Maemo is an old version. this is not true00:35
*** michele_ has quit IRC00:35
anprShadowJK so explain me the difference then00:35
DocScrutinizeranpr: but I bet that'S not a matter of paying for text2speech00:35
*** sle has quit IRC00:35
ShadowJKanpr, they're completely different products, but they have the same name.00:35
*** sle has joined #maemo00:35
anprohhh00:36
*** _Elwood_ has quit IRC00:36
anprso what's the difference btw them?00:36
oscillikanpr: the version of Ovi Maps on Maemo is the first release for Maemo. the Ovi Maps for Symbian has been around for a long time00:36
oscillikthe version on Maemo has been around for a few months00:36
*** benh has joined #maemo00:36
*** _Elwood_ has joined #Maemo00:36
anproscillik kk00:36
anpri see now00:36
anprbut maemo version is not free, like symbian's now, is it ?00:36
ShadowJKanpr, Maemo Ovi Maps is a new from-scratch thing that isn't finished. S60 Ovi Maps used to be called Nokia Maps, before Ovi existed and Nokia bought Navteq00:36
QuibusIs there a gl package for Maemo/00:36
Quibus?00:36
oscillikanpr: not at the moment, no00:36
ShadowJKanpr, Maemo version is free00:37
*** MrGoose1 has joined #maemo00:37
Quibussomething like libgl1-mesa-dev00:37
DocScrutinizerwell I'd guess if Nokia has the same name for the app, they want to offer same service (eventually)00:37
ShadowJKBut it doesn't do anything you'd want to pay for anyway ;-)00:37
anprso who is right ? oscillik or ShadowJK ?00:37

luke-jrShadowJK: Maemo Ovi Maps is free??00:38
anprand probably they do not want it to make free ?00:38
ShadowJKluke-jr, gratis00:38
luke-jroh00:38
ShadowJKnot libre00:38
DocScrutinizeroscillik: not free on maemo ovi maps you mean?00:38
luke-jruseless00:38
*** swo has joined #maemo00:38
luke-jrShadowJK: so say gratis -.-00:38
oscillikDocScrutinizer: yes00:38
luke-jrlibre is not an English word btw00:38
ShadowJKoscillik, turn by turn voice notified navigation DOES NOT EXIST. Whether it costs money or not, is an irrelevant question, don't you think?00:39
luke-jror rather, not in that usage :p00:39
lcukShadowJK, you are wrong00:39
luke-jrEnglish 'libre' means 'a cocktail made with rum, lime juice, and cola'00:39
luke-jrXD00:39
ShadowJKlcuk, oh?00:39
lcuki could pay someone to sit in car and use nokia maps00:39
oscillikShadowJK: could've sworn my E90 does Turn by Turn voice notified navigation00:39
anprso there is not any version on maemo for turn voice nav ?00:39
wolf^pupnik, thanks00:39
ShadowJKYes, S60 Ovi Maps has paid-for turn by turn navigation.00:39
ShadowJKWhich will become free on some specific phone models00:40
anprShadikka which, is free now*00:40
*** k-s is now known as k-s[AWAY]00:40
anpron specific models00:40
ShadowJKoh they already made it free? I'm shocked they moved that fast :-)00:40
anpryeah00:40
anprthey've made it00:40
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: S60 voice notif is free-as-in-beer00:40
anprbut just for 10 devices i think00:40
*** wazd has quit IRC00:41
ShadowJKThey gave me 2 year's free license with my E75 anyway, still on that :)00:41
anprhttp://maps.nokia.com/explore-services/ovi-maps00:41
pupnikeveryone seems to be getting free beer and i still have to pay for it :/00:41
DocScrutinizerShadowJK: see http://events.nokia.com/ovimaps/index.html00:41
Quibusjebba: the package needs python 2.5 to compile but 2.3 is installed by default. I have it depend on 2.5, but what is the best way to let the package build with python 2.5? (It's not in the standard path of course.)00:41
QuibusI have 2.5 installed00:42
anprkk, so you guys think it just a question of time for turn voice navigation on maemo 500:42
ShadowJKlol00:42
ShadowJKE75 isn't listed :)00:42
anprbecause it is still being developed ?00:42

jebbaQuibus: not sure about python packaging.  I just did one that put /scratchbox in the freaking path of the output .deb  gah.00:44

ShadowJKDocScrutinizer, fail :)00:45
anprmore i got involved in it00:45
anprmore i think that you're right00:45
ShadowJKwtf, you need pc suite to upgrade?00:45
ShadowJKwhen S60 these days even have something similar to app manager that does application updates...00:46

DocScrutinizerownload Maps Updater to your compatible computer.00:48
DocScrutinizerThe Maps Updater software installs Ovi Maps 3.0 to your mobile and also upgrades map data and navigator voice files from earlier versions of Maps.00:48
DocScrutinizer<<00:48
t-tanQuibus: if you have extras-devel (with deb-src) enabled, just do apt-source sympy00:48
anprbut 3.0 is bloody old00:48
anpr3.03 is the newest, which includes free turn voice nav00:48
Quibust-tan: good point00:48
ShadowJKoh, seems the automatic firmware upgrade check has failed on my E7500:48
Quibust-tan: note that I only need to set an environment variable to let it work, I just found out00:49
anprShadowJK give me 1 sec00:49
anpri'll find article for you00:49
Quibust-tan: PYTHON=python2.5 will do00:49
anprhttp://www.symbian-guru.com/welcome/2010/01/ovi-maps-goes-free-for-some-devices.html00:49
anprcheck this out00:49
Quibusbut I don't know how to let the debian/* files set that00:49
t-tanQuibus: depends on which build system you use. make sure it only calls 2.5 during the build00:50
pupniki can actually follow a map myself00:50
pupnikmust be old00:50
Quibust-tan: it's a custom build system00:51
Quibust-tan: so, PYTHON=python2.5 make00:51
Quibuswould do00:51
*** roide has joined #maemo00:51
anprShadowJK and i now know that n97 got free nav as well00:51
anprthey made some kind of update00:51
anprand it should be in the list soon00:51

*** asyncritus has joined #maemo00:57
oscillikanpr: if your N900 hits 88mph, it creates a flux time dispersal effect and you can theoretically go back or forward in time00:57
oscillikbut only if you have PR1.1 installed00:57
anpr:DDDD00:58
anprbut do you think that n900 is "becoming bigger and bigger" ?00:59

ScribbleJI still remember when Electronic Arts was just a dev house.  SKATE OR DIE!01:13
zerojayThere's so so so so so many ways that EA's improved games and used their influence to make that happen which you will never know or hear about.01:13
GeneralAntillesScribbleJ, lots of chest shots during conversations.01:13
w00tI don't really like where EA are (trying very hard) to go with "online gaming" being the one and only field01:14
pupnikGeneralAntilles: for me, fairly bad side missions.  lack of ability to do any cool spaceshippy things.  That atrocious level with the conscious plant that spit out the woman.01:14
w00ti.e. they want perpetual fees, for everything01:14

GeneralAntillesGameplay caught up in 2.01:16
jebba"In Q4, our top five smart phones, based on both net sales and gross profit, included four touch screens, the Nokia 5800, N97, N97 Mini, and 5530. Our touch screen portfolio generated very impressive growth as we expanded our portfolio to seven global touch screens in Q4, compared to only three in Q3. We shipped nearly 10 million touch screens in Q4, up more than 60%, compared to approximately 6 million in Q3."01:16

jebbaWSJ:  "But demand for Nokia's devices, such as the newly launched N900 high-end smart phone, helped the company increase its handset market share to 39% in the fourth quarter from 37% a year earlier."   not sure how they know that about n900 then....01:20

CaesiumI was trying 7100 at first but since the step was 00 it didn't have any effect ;)02:45
DocScrutinizer51you have to se steps=0 for pause02:45
DocScrutinizer51otherwise it's a ramp02:46
CaesiumI ended up with (for sms): 9d80400002ff03ff7103000002:46
CaesiumI didn't like how it blinked twice then stayed off for ages, it meant I had to look at the N900 for too long to see if I had missed an SMS02:46
DocScrutinizer51which may create nice pause if you try to step across a limit (down below 0, up over 255)02:46

CaesiumOMWeather, I have that on my main desktop and it seems ok.04:54
DocScrutinizerno - the weather drowns the bat (when heavy rain)04:55
ali1234i found foreca to be terribly ugly and hard to read, too much small writing and misaligned icons04:55
ali1234lets see if theres any new widgets since last time i looked04:56
ali1234wow a battery level widget... how is that useful?04:56
CaesiumDesktop Command Execution widget is one I need to have a look at, looks great04:56
ali1234... and another one04:56
DocScrutinizeron heavy weather bats don't fly04:56
zerojayali1234: How is that NOT useful?04:56
Matthew-I want some NYC wallpaper! :D04:56
ali1234zerojay: battery level is right there is the system menu all the time04:57
zerojayali1234: And with the widget you can see it without bothering with the system menu.04:57
ali1234there's no way that you can display the desktop without seeing the battery level04:57
zerojaySure there is.04:57
ali1234any time the desktop widget is visible, the system menu will also be visible04:57
zerojayEh... what?04:58

zerojayali1234: That's not the system menu.05:01
ali1234oh. what is it then?05:01
DocScrutinizerali1234: LOL05:01
zerojaysystem tray.05:01
ali1234my point still stands. any time the desktop is visible, that thing is visible too05:01
ali1234therefore, putting a battery widget on desktop is pointless05:01
zerojaywell, that makes at least more sense.05:01
DocScrutinizerre-ack05:01
DocScrutinizern805:02
zerojayunless that widget is giving more data... but then again, some people don't want battery in their tray.05:02
zerojaySo that's probably the reason why that one was made.05:02

amigadaveand what do we do when harmattan documentation appears? :)16:43
*** jrocha has quit IRC16:43
dnearyWhich is better, maintaining Fremantle/USB networking, Diablo/USB networking and Bora/USB networking, or having one USB networking page with 80% of the content referring to older platforms?16:44
dnearyamigadave, Titta was saying that usually you just archive away everything, and start anew for the new version with the old stuff, and update anything that needs updating16:44
dnearySo you would have different versions of the wiki for Harmattan, Diablo, Fremantle, ...16:45

murraycFind some way to get the old stuff out the way, I'd say.16:46
SpeedEvilAnd having the old documentation ont he main page means that it will get edited to match n90016:46
dnearySpeedEvil, If you look at web browser version migration, 6 months after the release of a new browser, 40% of users are still using the old one16:46

SpeedEvildneary: Sure - but - that's not the case by a release of a new mass-market device16:46
lizardoso everything related to diablo would be under wiki.maemo.org/Diablo...16:46
dnearyGiven that you need to buy new hardware to have Fremantle in your hands, it seems reasonable to me that a big chunk of the Maemo community are still on N800 and N81016:47
SpeedEvilPerhaps.16:47
dnearylizardo, Sure, that makes sense16:47
dnearylizardo, But then, let's say there's a FAQ which affects both Diablo & Fremantle16:47
*** slonopotamus_ has joined #maemo16:47
amigadaveyeah, there is a lot of shared information16:47

lizardodneary: in that case it would exist only "FAQ"  until that content really needs moving somewhere ... the point is to have the "general content" applicable to the latest product, and anything which becomes obsoleted or product specific be moved to Product/Page_name pages... IMHO16:50
dnearyhrw, It still gets tricky when you have pages like (say) USB networking where it was really complicated with a 770, and is pretty straightforward with an N90016:50
threshit is going to be even easier in a short period of time16:51

hrwdneary: so make it wiki/770/usbnetworking (770^Wos2005/2006 only) and wiki/usbnetworking which will describe n8x0/n900 and have link to 770 one?16:51
threshlike you would be able to define 'USB access points' and choose between them after pluggin the usb16:51

lizardodneary: my feeling is that don't matter how it is arranged there will be always at least some content duplication ... I see we all agree that having everything-in-one-page does not work well :)16:51
amigadavewe could hide the old content as sub-pages, e.g. Packaging moves to Packaging/Fremantle when Harmattan appears, and then have a tiny template at the bottom linking to the older information16:51

* Damion2 almost couldn't breath just then as somebody came back to me after sending rather iffy link with "oh, that's what NSFW means"16:54
lizardodneary: for instance, for each namespace there is a "Talk" namespace listed in http://wiki.maemo.org/Special:Search16:55
dnearyCreating namespaces required sysadmin access to config files for mediawiki though16:55
dnearylizardo, That's configurable16:55
*** frade has joined #maemo16:56
lizardodneary: and what is that "maemo.org wiki"  namespace ?16:57
redDamion2: share iffy link16:57
lizardodneary: my point is , if there are too manu namespaces, it becomes difficult to select the mark boxes on the search page... most users end up just leaving the default selection , which is the main namespace16:57
dnearylizardo, I agree16:58
lizardodneary: and we end up with duplicate pages on different namespaces :)16:58
dnearyAnd the maemo.org wiki namespace is a mystery to me16:58
lizardodneary: maybe there should have a default to search on all namespaces... if we indeed want to have namespaces for each product16:58

Caesiumfdisk can't be hard19:30
Damion2yeah I contemplated changing the daemon that exports the partiion, to export the whole disk after remounting ;/home as RO and letting a desktop cfdisk it19:30
Damion2I can't be the only person that thought of that easier option that crosscompiling cfdisk ;)19:31
Damion2I'll man sfdisk if I do it :)19:31
LantiziaI like keeping the two partitions, don't want to edit scripts that might break with updates anyway - 2gb for /home was silly and I didn't need 27gb for the USB part19:31
Caesiumthat easy debian chroot might be an easier way to get cfdisk etc?19:31

Damion2surely if debian chroot works, then copying the right libs, some ld-linux.so kludgy fun, should permit you to run stuff under the main maemo rather than staying in the chroot, not to mention it indeicates a reasonable chance of easy crosscompile ?19:34

villagermgedmin: no, the other way around... the metapackage might remove the kernel... and then later someone goes and autoremoves stuff that nothing depends on, and...19:52
ShadowJKdo things depend on maemo-pr? I forget... apt-cache rdependends maemo-pr19:53

Matthew-Damion2: oh, its near the city19:54
Matthew-not in west end19:54
villagermgedmin: it might not be the kernel specifically, but there's probably something important that could get autoremoved whenever the metapackage that depends on the maemo components goes19:54

Matthew-next to millenium bridge also.19:54

ShadowJKI don't know about Nokia, but if I designed a charger I would feel very uneasy about ctrying to charge a battery from that low20:36
hatseflatssuppose that's my fault for trying to start the n810 that often, further draining the battery20:37
ShadowJKn8x0 has a hardware limit of 2.8V before it boots... and sd/flash probably stops working before that :/20:37
*** asedeno_work has quit IRC20:37
hatseflatsregardless, I don't have an obvious way of charging the battery, the n810 won't boot off the AC adapter that came with it, and power can't be supplied over USB either20:38
hatseflatsso unless I hook up some similar battery by hacking the connectors on the board or whatnot it's a catch2220:38

Stskeepshatseflats: there was a bug in th regard, so20:41
mgedminI got the impression there is one20:41
hatseflatsor why in the name of reason they need software to charge20:41
mgedminif the software isn't running, the charging works, but very very slowly and carefully20:41
mgedminsw is needed to enable high-performance charging20:41
mgedminthis is all hearsay20:42
hatseflatshmmm20:42
mgedmineither from this channel or from what people said on the mailing list20:42
ShadowJKli-ion degrades quicköy when it sits at 2.6V a day or two at that, and the N810 wouldn't be able to charge it anyway, even if you had initially managed to charge it elsewhere :/20:42
hatseflatsso if I can get it to stop looping and just leave it for a night or something like that, it should be okay?20:42
mgedmingetting somebody from Nokia to reply with advice might be good20:42
mgedminI don't feel qualified to say whether that would be ok or not20:42
hatseflatsokay20:43
mgedminI wouldn't want to leave a reboot loop overnight20:43
mgedminrebooting eats a lot of battery power20:43
hatseflatsno, definitively not20:43
mgedminprobably more than the charger supplies during that time period20:43
ShadowJKnokia care will pop in a new battery and charge you retail price plus, if it works with that..20:43
hatseflatsbut there where points where it stopped looping, I figured itwas because it had drained all it could form the battery20:43
mgedminespecially if the charging sw is not up yet20:43

dottedmagWell, pieces of puzzle start falling in place. And SyncML client is not necessarily the component that initiates the connection, right?21:51
dottedmagSo server running on desktop may start sync with client running on phone.21:51
villagerI don't think so, no, but I'm not an expert here21:52

villagerif you connect to the phone over bluetooth, then the pc can presumably send a command that asks the phone to start syncing with the pc as a client21:53
villagerthe phone is the client, that is21:53
