Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: crashanddie sleeping has meant my comment hasn't shown up yet. | 00:01 |
anpr | hey mece are you familiar with pidgin ? | 00:01 |
andre__ | GeneralAntilles, only found https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180040 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322799 | 00:01 |
povbot | Bug 180040: was not found. | 00:01 |
povbot | Bug 322799: was not found. | 00:01 |
andre__ | povbot, you're stupid | 00:02 |
povbot | andre__: Error: "you're" is not a valid command. | 00:02 |
mece | anpr, on my desktop, yes. | 00:02 |
GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, yeah, moderated comments are irritating. | 00:02 |

Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: Short version: "using 'this affects me too' as a shortcut for voting seems like a fine idea to me" | 00:02 |
*** maemoITorg has quit IRC | 00:02 | |
GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, it's gotta be one click, though. | 00:02 |
anpr | so it brings all the info from programs like skype and etc ? | 00:02 |
GeneralAntilles | Not sure how difficult it would be to change the voting setup for that. | 00:02 |
mece | anpr, well the skype part is kinda pointless imo. | 00:02 |
andre__ | I should probably blog and just link to this post. quite wonderful. | 00:03 |
*** Phono has quit IRC | 00:03 | |
mece | anpr, it needs the real skype software running.. | 00:03 |
*** straind has quit IRC | 00:03 | |
anpr | but it works on n900, doesn't it ? | 00:03 |
GeneralAntilles | andre__, get ready for commenters asking if you're going to send patches to upstream? :P | 00:04 |
zChris | This might be a dumb question but is N900 strong enough to play xvids ? | 00:04 |
*** cyndis has quit IRC | 00:04 | |
andre__ | hmm? :-) | 00:04 |
andre__ | zChris, why not? | 00:04 |
GeneralAntilles | zChris, depends on the resolution and bitrate. | 00:05 |
zChris | andre__: Well isit strong enough for 720p also? :) | 00:05 |
andre__ | zChris, do xvids have more weight than other videos? :-P | 00:05 |
GeneralAntilles | zChris, short answer, though, yes. | 00:05 |
konfoo | 720p.. come on | 00:05 |
konfoo | the screen isn't 720p | 00:05 |

*** straind has joined #maemo | 00:05 | |

Dantonic | hi anyone know if its possible to use mplayer instead of gstreamer in the default media player of the N900? | 00:05 |
Damion2 | tvout matches the 800x480 for pal at least | 00:05 |

konfoo | youre not going to find anyone in marketing on this channel | 00:07 |
tripzero | zChris, n900 is a more powerful device | 00:07 |
anpr | ehm, wanna suffer from WM? | 00:07 |
mece | zChris, well I guess it depends on what you want. It's like choosing between a machete and a rocket launcher. | 00:07 |
*** danilocesar has quit IRC | 00:07 | |
tripzero | lol | 00:08 |
anpr | maybe it mayb be more user friendly first... but i have bad feelings to it somehow.. | 00:08 |

anpr | :D:D:D | 00:09 |
konfoo | is it just me or does using exchange as a mail service seem to suck down battery life | 00:09 |
*** cyndis has joined #maemo | 00:09 | |
mece | konfoo, I hear it does. | 00:10 |
*** chenca has quit IRC | 00:10 | |
Xisdibik | konfoo: Having my MfE service set to always on, i get better battery life than i would with IMAP at 5/10 and maybe 15 minutes, but less than IMAP set at 30minute + intervals | 00:10 |
mece | exchange = evil | 00:10 |
Xisdibik | but i get the benefit of getting my mail right away ;) | 00:10 |
konfoo | ive been running gmail imap for a while but adding exchange has just hammered the battery life | 00:11 |
mece | and I mean evil in a bad way, not the nice evil, like Christopher Walken. | 00:11 |
konfoo | even with the shortest sync thresholds | 00:11 |
Xisdibik | konfoo: are you syncing with gmail or exchange? | 00:11 |
konfoo | both (two accounts) | 00:11 |
Xisdibik | well thats probably why.. as its 2 mail accounts, more battery drain | 00:12 |
Xisdibik | I synced gmail through IMAP, and now through MfE, so its still just one account | 00:12 |
GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, think it should be implemented as a patch to the voting system or as another system entirely? | 00:12 |
Xisdibik | yours is using battery for IMAP. and for MfE, two different protocols afaik | 00:12 |
*** chun1 has joined #maemo | 00:12 | |
konfoo | i didnt notice much hit with imap, was my point | 00:12 |
chun1 | Can I use my n900 as a webcam for my pc? | 00:12 |
konfoo | mfe seems to have impacted it exponentially | 00:12 |
*** woglinde has joined #maemo | 00:12 | |
Xisdibik | dunno, my phone lasts 24 hours+, so its fine for me | 00:12 |
konfoo | anyway i'll just remove exchange. hell its only work email ;) | 00:13 |
Xisdibik | yea who wants work at home :p | 00:13 |
konfoo | ha exactly | 00:13 |
lcuk | GeneralAntilles, it should be the voting thing | 00:13 |
lcuk | no point in having 2 buttons which mean the same thing | 00:14 |
lcuk | people should only be voting for bugs if they experience em themselves anyway | 00:14 |
woglinde | he luck | 00:14 |

woglinde | hm | 00:18 |

woglinde | hm are you sure? | 00:18 |

mece | hero < N900 | 00:31 |
mece | 'nuff said. | 00:31 |
anpr | yeah, but zChris wants facts | 00:31 |
tripzero | tis true | 00:31 |
tripzero | look at the hardware specs | 00:31 |
*** timeless_mbp has quit IRC | 00:32 | |
anpr | why | 00:32 |
anpr | yeah, but everyday usage, apps, support and etc | 00:32 |
tripzero | if he wants a bazillion nearly useless apps, get a hero | 00:32 |
mece | anpr, well int that case, let me quote myself: "mece: hero < N900" | 00:32 |
mece | ;) | 00:33 |
zChris | Biger companies behind hero apps though :S | 00:33 |
anpr | mece i would say myself hero <*n n900 | 00:33 |
mece | zChris, well, that changes things to this: N900 > Hero | 00:33 |
zChris | mece: Funneh :P | 00:34 |
mece | ok seriously though, It's a completely different beast. | 00:34 |
tripzero | it all depends on what you want to do | 00:34 |
tripzero | if you want to have a more 'free' experience, get an n900 and hack away | 00:35 |
*** VDVsx has joined #maemo | 00:35 | |

*** heinx has quit IRC | 00:35 | |

zChris | tripzero: locked down ? | 00:35 |
*** tlir has joined #maemo | 00:35 | |
tripzero | zChris, android is more locked down than maemo is | 00:36 |
mece | This is what it boils down to for me: maemo makes android look like pong. | 00:36 |
tybollt | hmm | 00:36 |
tybollt | how do I edit a number that is in the call log? | 00:36 |
mece | a nice, shiny pong, but pong nevertheless. | 00:36 |
tybollt | or is it indeed so retarded that I can't do anything about it? | 00:36 |
tripzero | zChris, ie, try making an app that controls the phone on android. You will find quickly android locks you out of a lot of functionality | 00:37 |
tlir | there used to be a topic describing how to connect 2 sip calls on maemo 8x0, anyone remembers that? | 00:37 |
zChris | tripzero: yeah but that dosent affect me that much which ones is abit more open than the other | 00:37 |
*** chun1 has left #maemo | 00:37 | |
tripzero | zChris, if you want to be able to play, say xvid or ogg, or any other codec, it does matter | 00:38 |
zChris | tripzero: Hero cant play xvid or ogg? | 00:38 |
konfoo | hero is a joke in comparison. come on, i cant believe this conversation is going on | 00:38 |
mece | zChris, well I guess either one would work fine. If you need MfE on a server that only allows provisional devices, then n900 is not for you :) | 00:38 |
tripzero | zChris, http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1581 | 00:39 |

zChris | tripzero: not that i use ogg | 00:41 |
redeeman | my laptop is my laptop | 00:41 |
tripzero | do you use xvid? | 00:41 |
tripzero | what about flash? | 00:41 |
lcuk | does reggie ever come into irc? | 00:41 |
zChris | tripzero: yes. both of em | 00:41 |
tripzero | than you may want to double check if android supports them | 00:41 |
tripzero | i know it doesn't have flash support, at least not on the nexus | 00:41 |
zChris | it doesnt? | 00:42 |
SpeedEvil | Is there an easy way to set from the command line the background image for a desktop? | 00:42 |
mece | I was playing with my n900 and thought, damn, it would be nice to check out the project directly, and not have to scp it over. So I casually did apt-get install git, not thinking it would find it. Then it did, and my heart fluttered... <3 | 00:42 |
zChris | tripzero: hero support flash from what i know | 00:42 |
tripzero | okay, i see that now | 00:42 |
*** ml-maemo has joined #maemo | 00:42 | |
tripzero | i wonder why the nexus doesn't have it | 00:42 |
anpr | guys is it possible to categorise your apps by yourself ? | 00:42 |
mece | zChris, really? That's pretty cool. | 00:42 |
anpr | i've downloaded categorise app | 00:42 |
zChris | mece: how come? | 00:43 |
anpr | but i didn't really liked it | 00:43 |
mece | zChris, well flash is nice. I didn't know you could browse flash in hero. | 00:43 |
tripzero | zChris, last time i heard, android's video playback sucks | 00:43 |
redeeman | lol flash is not nice | 00:43 |
tripzero | and the ui has latency issues | 00:44 |
redeeman | what's wrong with you? | 00:44 |
mece | redeeman, ok no, it's not. but I do like to have the option, since the world (wide web) is a fracked up place. | 00:44 |
zChris | redeeman: I like flash when its used right | 00:44 |
tripzero | zChris, finally, you should probably find a friend that has each and play around with them for a while. see which one you like more | 00:44 |
redeeman | zChris: theres no such thing | 00:44 |

zChris | redeeman: ^^ | 00:46 |
zChris | http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/ <-- good use of flash imo. Awesome | 00:46 |
Arkenoi | ok for simple video but does not work with complicated apps | 00:46 |
mece | Arkenoi, ok so hero does _not_ support flash... | 00:46 |
redeeman | zChris: its physically impossible to properly use flash | 00:46 |
redeeman | it is an abomination that by all means should be treated as a plague | 00:46 |

tripzero | i saw ssh client in the app store | 00:48 |
tripzero | but no sshd | 00:48 |
jebba | it's not running a gnuish system, so i dont think there's bash and such, but i could be off here. | 00:49 |

*** dracflamloc has quit IRC | 01:18 | |
mece | dotblank, you mean like the sdk on a live cd? | 01:19 |
SpeedEvil | no. | 01:20 |

*** adelsorb has joined #maemo | 01:20 | |
dotblank | yea exactly | 01:20 |
SpeedEvil | so the n900 acts like a cdrom | 01:20 |
dotblank | USB-cdrom driver | 01:20 |
SpeedEvil | In principle, it's 'just' another USB gadget driver. | 01:20 |
SpeedEvil | I don't however know if it's been implemented. | 01:21 |
mece | ooh. I see. | 01:21 |
*** adelsorb has quit IRC | 01:21 | |
SpeedEvil | Or if it is - if the module is included in the kernel - prolly not. | 01:21 |
dotblank | it would be like any virtual cdrom program.. allows you to mount and umount while it is plugged in | 01:21 |
SpeedEvil | Though that could be fixed | 01:21 |
SpeedEvil | there is certainly no UI | 01:21 |
*** Anidel has joined #maemo | 01:21 | |
*** dirtyrice88 has quit IRC | 01:21 | |
dotblank | Could just make a new entry in the options pop up when it is plugged in.. | 01:22 |

rokabout | I'm trying to learn how to build apps to run on maemo 5 - anyone willing to answer a question? - I've built the qt tutorial address book app fine on my desktop and fine under the maemo 5 scratchbox - I can even run it there - I just can't enter text into it's fields - I suspect some sort of input method issue - perhaps even easily fixed by installing another package in scratchbox - Any ideas? | 02:48 |
GeneralAntilles | One evil bastard | 02:48 |
luke-jr | GeneralAntilles: is he on IRC? | 02:48 |
*** emma has joined #maemo | 02:48 | |
konfoo | poitsu: yes lets just randomly associate everything | 02:48 |
*** anpr has joined #maemo | 02:49 | |
konfoo | maybe google should get off the internet, being that it is built on a military network to start off with? | 02:49 |
poitsu | you should read up on the qwest story | 02:49 |
konfoo | which qwest story is this | 02:49 |
poitsu | how they refused the warrantless wiretaps | 02:50 |
*** timeless_mbp has quit IRC | 02:50 | |
rokabout | everything I've read seems to indicate the qt widgets should somehow just do the right thing for the platform they were built on - i;m not trying to use hildonized versions - just plain qt | 02:50 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: that's me | 02:50 |
luke-jr | crashanddie: in the event you don't allow my comment, please at least return the text to me? | 02:51 |
luke-jr | thanks | 02:51 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: interesting comment, though you said exactly what I said some people would say ;) | 02:51 |
rokabout | (as far as I know) - my main guide has been http://wiki.maemo.org/Qt4_Hildon#Installing_Qt_packages_in_Scratchbox | 02:51 |
luke-jr | crashanddie: your argument against it is illogical though | 02:52 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: nha, it's published, the only ones I don't publish are spam or "omfg lol a lot to read" and "stop using latin you fucker" | 02:52 |
luke-jr | crashanddie: just because someone gives a homeless guy a sandwich doesn't mean you suddenly didn't pay for the one you bought at the market | 02:52 |
*** MrGoose1 has left #maemo | 02:53 | |
crashanddie | that's a terrible argument | 02:53 |
luke-jr | maybe I should have said that | 02:53 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: my argument was that you can download maemo freely | 02:53 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: you don't need to buy an N900 to get access to it | 02:53 |
luke-jr | and that is irrelevant | 02:53 |
luke-jr | and in fact, you can't | 02:53 |
crashanddie | no it isn't | 02:53 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: http://mxr.maemo.org/ | 02:54 |
*** Matthew- has quit IRC | 02:54 | |
luke-jr | crashanddie: that's Maemo? or just select parts? | 02:54 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: http://maemo.gitorious.org/ | 02:54 |
crashanddie | luke-jr: it's only using that that a chinese manufacturer released a non-nokia maemo device | 02:55 |
luke-jr | anyhow, even if someone *could* download Maemo freely, that doesn't change the fact that I paid for it. | 02:55 |
crashanddie | I never said it did, but doesn't entitle you to yell at the community | 02:55 |
luke-jr | crashanddie: as someone else said, it's not really Maemo any more than Mer is | 02:55 |
luke-jr | sure | 02:55 |
jacekowski | you didn't | 02:55 |
jacekowski | maemo is free | 02:55 |
jacekowski | you paid for device that runs it | 02:56 |
luke-jr | crashanddie: I'll definitely concede that-- it's not the community's fault. | 02:56 |
jacekowski | + some device specific modifications | 02:56 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: free != gratis | 02:56 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: anyhow, *someone* paid for the development of it | 02:56 |
luke-jr | that cost was included in the devices | 02:56 |
crashanddie | that is my main problem; not so much the moaning, as I clarified in the comments, but the problem that with non-technical people comes a disruptiveness of sorts, regardless if it is in complaints, or ideology | 02:56 |
jacekowski | well, lot of development was made on other platforms | 02:57 |
jacekowski | it's linux in the end | 02:57 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: if it was really Linux in the end, it wouldn't be a problem nearly so much | 02:57 |
konfoo | i always thought dealdatabase had the right idea when it came to non technical users | 02:57 |
konfoo | they created a subforum called 'the sewer' | 02:57 |
jacekowski | luke-jr: it's a linux | 02:57 |
konfoo | and banished any idiots and their posts to it | 02:57 |
*** anpr has quit IRC | 02:57 | |
crashanddie | konfoo: the same idea has been bounced on tmo as well | 02:59 |
crashanddie | konfoo: the problem as far as I can tell it is that people are really anal about the whole "open" thingy | 02:59 |
crashanddie | causing a lot more trouble than good, imho | 02:59 |
konfoo | crashanddie: all i can say is it helped. i spent a lot of time fielding useless messages for the tivo TY decoder in vlc | 02:59 |
crashanddie | people want to be in charge, want to make decisions, even if they are utterly inept to do so | 02:59 |
jacekowski | i don't really care if it's open free or whatever | 03:00 |
konfoo | oh nod, popularity contest amongst the inept | 03:00 |
jacekowski | as long as it works | 03:00 |
* rokabout just wants to write some code | 03:00 | |
jacekowski | install SDK and start writing | 03:00 |
jacekowski | anyways | 03:01 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: it's on some diverged branch of Linux 2.6.21 | 03:01 |
crashanddie | so in their opinion, everyone ought to be able to express their opinion, no matter how stupid or insulting it is | 03:01 |
*** timeless_mbp has joined #maemo | 03:01 | |
*** timeless_mbp has joined #maemo | 03:01 | |
jacekowski | sleep time | 03:01 |
jacekowski | luke-jr: well it's 2.6.28 | 03:01 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: N900 maybe | 03:01 |
konfoo | crashanddie: development-specific threads should have zero tolerance | 03:01 |
rokabout | jacekowski: I did, followed the nice qt addressbook tutorial - text fields don't work in maemo 5 scratchbox :-( | 03:01 |
rokabout | I'm sure it's something simple... | 03:01 |
jacekowski | luke-jr: most parts of kernel are vanilia | 03:01 |
crashanddie | konfoo: try to explain that to anyone in Community | 03:01 |
*** fredrin has joined #maemo | 03:02 | |
crashanddie | konfoo: last time I did I was hit on with clubs | 03:02 |
*** felipec has quit IRC | 03:02 | |
rokabout | any ideas? | 03:02 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: N8x0 is 2.6.21 and not practical to port to mainline | 03:02 |
jacekowski | luke-jr: and there is a lot of device specific drivers added | 03:02 |
konfoo | crashanddie: hey i hear u - it's just extremely counterproductive to have to wade through for what in all intent purposes is sewage.. in order to find the 3 posts in a 200-post thread that actually are relevant to the topic | 03:02 |
jacekowski | luke-jr: but that would be all reall in terms of mods made to vanilia kernel | 03:03 |
jacekowski | i'm going to sleep | 03:03 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: and that's the key important things | 03:03 |
luke-jr | that hold N8x0 back from running (mainline/real) Linux | 03:03 |
jacekowski | IT IS REAL LINUX | 03:03 |
luke-jr | no, it's a diverged branch | 03:04 |
luke-jr | if it was real Linux, I could upgrade it to the latest version | 03:04 |
jacekowski | then do it | 03:04 |
luke-jr | can't. | 03:04 |
jacekowski | but nobody merged drivers | 03:04 |
luke-jr | I would need to port their 2.6.21 cruft | 03:04 |
luke-jr | exactly | 03:04 |
*** anpr has joined #maemo | 03:05 | |
jacekowski | but for starters | 03:05 |
jacekowski | why would you need new kernel? | 03:05 |
luke-jr | because nothing recent supports ancient stuff like 2.6.21 anymore | 03:05 |
*** aloisiojr has quit IRC | 03:05 | |
luke-jr | because 2.6.32 includes ramzswap | 03:06 |
konfoo | define nothing? | 03:06 |
jacekowski | everything supports 2.6.21 | 03:06 |
luke-jr | udev | 03:06 |
luke-jr | does not run on 2.6.21 anymore | 03:06 |
jacekowski | omfg | 03:06 |
jacekowski | udev on a phone? | 03:07 |
luke-jr | ... | 03:07 |
luke-jr | it's not a phone | 03:07 |
luke-jr | it's a handheld computer | 03:07 |
luke-jr | I run KDE 4.3 too. | 03:07 |
jacekowski | besides, there is no difference between latest udev and udev supporting 2.6.21 | 03:07 |
luke-jr | hah | 03:07 |
tripzero | iirc, kernels 2.6.28+ have fastboot patches that make booting faster | 03:07 |
luke-jr | explain that one | 03:07 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: 2.6.21 has known exploits, too ;) | 03:08 |
jacekowski | patched | 03:08 |
luke-jr | and again, ramzswap | 03:08 |
tripzero | ext4? | 03:08 |
luke-jr | ext4 is useless on a handheld | 03:08 |
tripzero | nilfs | 03:08 |
luke-jr | :) | 03:08 |
luke-jr | ramzswap is the big thing for me | 03:08 |
luke-jr | 128 MB RAM is far less useful than 196 MB RAM | 03:09 |
poitsu | merging things upstream and customizing for user experience seem to be inherently conflicting goals | 03:09 |
poitsu | with these devices | 03:09 |
luke-jr | poitsu: what gives you that impression? | 03:09 |
jacekowski | ramzswap is an ugly hack | 03:09 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: if it were still an ugly hack, it wouldn't be in mainline | 03:09 |
luke-jr | regardless, it works | 03:10 |
luke-jr | and improves things | 03:10 |
jacekowski | they've added lot of ugly hacks into mainline | 03:10 |
jacekowski | OOM killer for example | 03:10 |
jacekowski | or fuse | 03:10 |
luke-jr | ... | 03:10 |
luke-jr | every OS has an OOM killer | 03:10 |
*** dirtyrice88 has quit IRC | 03:10 | |
poitsu | luke-jr: take for example hildon. Would it have been practical for maemo and nokia to have worked that featureset into gtk in 2005-2006? | 03:10 |
luke-jr | poitsu: no clue, I couldn't care less about GTK | 03:10 |
jacekowski | but linux oom killer is really ugly | 03:10 |
jacekowski | and not really | 03:11 |
luke-jr | poitsu: and it's not like it has to be in mainline releases the day they ship | 03:11 |
jacekowski | windows don't have oom killer | 03:11 |
GAN900 | poitsu, no, half the Hildon patches were deemed unacceptable anyway. | 03:11 |
GAN900 | Er, maemo-gtk | 03:11 |
jacekowski | windows don't have overcommit support so there is no risk of running out of memory | 03:11 |
poitsu | the answer is "no" | 03:11 |
luke-jr | GAN900: if Nokia worked with the GTK devs at the time they were writing it, they could have figured something out I'm sure | 03:11 |
jacekowski | as it will not allocate more memory than it has | 03:11 |
poitsu | luke-jr: you do have a unique view on many things | 03:12 |
GeneralAntilles | luke-jr, they did, they didn't. | 03:12 |
jacekowski | and it's kernel developers fault that these drivers are not integrated into mainline | 03:12 |
GeneralAntilles | s/,/;/2 | 03:12 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: not exactly. | 03:13 |
jacekowski | they integrate all kinds of crap | 03:13 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: one of the core busses (CBUS) will need to be completely rewritten for mainline | 03:13 |
luke-jr | and many other things depend on that | 03:13 |

jacekowski | you can run any linux program as long as you compile it for arm | 03:16 |
jacekowski | i would say thats enough to say it's running linux | 03:16 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: Linux is what Linus (and those he delegates older versions to) release | 03:17 |
jacekowski | so then there is no linux at all | 03:17 |

jebba | poitsu: yes. Copied over HAL files | 03:18 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: every single major Linux*-based* OS can run with a vanilla kernel | 03:18 |
redeeman | jacekowski: there are plenty of distributiosn running kernels compiled from nonmodified sources from kernel.org | 03:18 |

*** panaggio has joined #maemo | 03:18 | |
jacekowski | there is at least one distro that's not going to run on vanilia kernel | 03:19 |
luke-jr | if Fedora needs their own branch now, I don't care... my point still stands | 03:19 |
redeeman | it doesn't | 03:19 |
redeeman | you can boot kernel.org kernels | 03:19 |
redeeman | and many do | 03:19 |
poitsu | why does anyone care about what you care about luke-jr? can you try to make your cares understandable to the rest of us? | 03:19 |
jacekowski | you can run maemo using stock kernel | 03:19 |
*** timoph has quit IRC | 03:20 | |
jacekowski | you can run stock kernel on nokia device | 03:20 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: nope | 03:20 |
poitsu | you keep saying "i don't care about that". wow. | 03:20 |
*** Ave has quit IRC | 03:20 | |

jacekowski | and in my laptop at the moment - i need external modules for wifi, graphic and webcam, and sonypi management chip | 03:21 |
jebba | jacekowski: you can't run stock kernel on N900. You don't even get touchscreen. | 03:21 |
jacekowski | so it "boots" stock kernel | 03:21 |
redeeman | jacekowski: your laptop probably didn't say it runs linux | 03:21 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: if so, your manuf shouldn't advertise supported by Linux | 03:21 |
jacekowski | find me one device that's fully supported by linux | 03:21 |
jebba | jacekowski: i dont think it even boots stock kernel at all. | 03:21 |
*** jjo has quit IRC | 03:22 | |

jebba | jacekowski: my thinkpad seems fine. | 03:22 |

jacekowski | jebba: it boots stock kernel | 03:22 |
redeeman | my laptop | 03:22 |
*** tigert has quit IRC | 03:22 | |
jebba | not at the moment. booting fedora. but stock kernel works fine. | 03:22 |
luke-jr | jacekowski: Gentoo's branch/fork of Linux is strictly bugfixes | 03:22 |
jacekowski | redeeman: what graphic card you've got | 03:22 |
redeeman | jacekowski: R300 | 03:22 |
luke-jr | so I can say with confidence that vanilla would also run | 03:22 |
jebba | i've frequently run stock kernels on my thinkpads + fedora. | 03:22 |
jacekowski | redeeman: there is no drivers in mainline for it | 03:23 |
redeeman | jacekowski: that's not true | 03:23 |
jacekowski | fully working drivers | 03:23 |
redeeman | jacekowski: the DRM part is in the kernel and has been for years | 03:23 |

ptl | but it can't resolve the name, GeneralAntilles | 04:19 |
ptl | and I did a dns lookup here right now and it resolved | 04:19 |
doubleukay | hmm | 04:19 |
RevAaron | I've been toying with the idea of getting an N900... I pulled out my N800 out of the closest. Is the N900 a substantial improvement, software-wise? I remembered why I had stopped using the N800 in the first place- web browsing is painfully slow. People seem to review the N900 well, but that seems to be the case with the N800 as well- I'm having a hard time distinguishing between fact and wishful thinking with these reviews. | 04:19 |
*** EspadaV8_L has joined #maemo | 04:19 | |
ptl | RevAaron: try the emulator | 04:19 |
zerojay | hmm... using py2deb.. and my package is entirely contained within the preinstall/preremove scripts.. no actual files are installed anywhere, just changes made to a database... but py2deb is bitching about there being no files defined in src. Something I'm doing wrong or should I just install a dummy file to make it happy? | 04:20 |
ptl | RevAaron: I just got my N900 and it is quite fast | 04:20 |

RevAaron | SpeedEvil: I'll look a bit more. I'd found a lot of simpler demos, but nothing too demanding. | 04:20 |
SpeedEvil | it's a development environment that is not intended to replicate the UI of the phone | 04:20 |
ptl | doubleukay: yes | 04:20 |
ptl | I'll try doing the command, hadn't thought of that. | 04:21 |
ptl | oh | 04:21 |
ptl | I can't | 04:21 |
ptl | I am in the middle of an update right now | 04:21 |
ptl | I'll try it later... thanks | 04:21 |
RevAaron | hrmm | 04:21 |
doubleukay | a firmware update? | 04:21 |
doubleukay | hope yours doesn't crash and reboot 5 times like mine did! :) | 04:21 |
RevAaron | yikes | 04:21 |
SpeedEvil | RevAaron: there is also fennec - which is mobile firefox | 04:23 |
ptl | updating the "Maemo 5" package, so I guess it's yes | 04:23 |
RevAaron | SpeedEvil: is that something different than the mozilla-based browser on the more recent firmware version for the N800? | 04:23 |
SpeedEvil | RevAaron: yes. | 04:23 |
RevAaron | SpeedEvil: browsing wasn't too bad during the Opera days, went downhill after the switch to firefox | 04:23 |
RevAaron | er, mozilla. | 04:23 |
SpeedEvil | RevAaron: http://www.mozilla.com/en-GB/firefox/b/ | 04:24 |
SpeedEvil | err | 04:24 |
RevAaron | i'll look into it! it's been a year or so since I played with the N800, I'm a bit out of the loop. | 04:24 |
doubleukay | RevAaron: my 2c about the browsing. it's mostly awesome, but there are a few things left to desire. 1) links are hard to click especially if it's small things like page numbers (I come from a opera mini background where the cursor snaps to links). 2) flash ads really spoil the experience by slowing down the browser. | 04:24 |
*** rsalveti has joined #maemo | 04:24 | |
SpeedEvil | http://www.mozilla.com/en-GB/m/ | 04:24 |
RevAaron | doubleukay: yeah, I could see that, esp #2. I block flash by default on desktop Firefox- I can't imagine how super-slow it can get on the N900. | 04:25 |
RevAaron | SpeedEvil: awesome, thanks! | 04:25 |
*** roshenia has quit IRC | 04:25 | |
zerojay | doubleukay: Install my adflashblock-css package. All flash is blocked by default until you click on them to activate them along with adblocking through CSS. :) | 04:25 |
doubleukay | zerojay: hey thanks, which one is it? | 04:25 |
doubleukay | I installed ABP but it doesn't seem to work :( | 04:25 |
zerojay | doubleukay: adflashblock-css, it's in extras-devel. | 04:25 |

*** trofi has quit IRC | 04:26 | |
RevAaron | SpeedEvil: it says the N900 and N810 are supported- N800 too, just not listed? | 04:26 |
SpeedEvil | RevAaron: don't know. doubt it. | 04:26 |
RevAaron | ahh | 04:26 |
RevAaron | hrmm | 04:26 |
SpeedEvil | For example - slashdot.org - my desktop ff starts to render the first story in about 5s. Microb in about 16, and fennec in about 14 | 04:27 |
SpeedEvil | and lynx on n900 in 0.1 | 04:27 |
RevAaron | is fennec the same browser that comes built-in on the N900, or is it a derivative of the mozilla-based browser built-in on the N800? | 04:27 |
SpeedEvil | microb is the built in browser. | 04:28 |
RevAaron | gotcha. | 04:28 |
SpeedEvil | I don't know about the n800 | 04:28 |
* RevAaron goes to get his N800 and his wife's iPhone | 04:28 | |
doubleukay | SpeedEvil: hmm you know I just remembered something.. that I should enable pipelining in microb | 04:29 |
doubleukay | I think that would improve performance a lot on the cell network | 04:29 |
*** trofi has joined #maemo | 04:29 | |
zerojay | You shouldn't ever fuck with pipelining. | 04:30 |
doubleukay | hm why not? | 04:30 |
SpeedEvil | This was on wifi on a 326k dsl link | 04:30 |
*** kakashi_ has quit IRC | 04:30 | |
zerojay | doubleukay: Because it's basically giving a big middle finger to the webservers you're visiting by wasting more of their RAM and connections. | 04:30 |
doubleukay | oh that isn't what pipelining is | 04:31 |
zerojay | Max connections... | 04:31 |
RevAaron | pipelining != max connections | 04:31 |
zerojay | I know that.. but a lot of people just refer to it as pipelining. | 04:31 |
doubleukay | ah ok. no worries, I understand HTTP :) | 04:32 |
* SpeedEvil needs to finish his differential caching proxy server. | 04:33 | |
SpeedEvil | s/finish/start/ | 04:33 |
doubleukay | I believe there's some prior art you can follow.. | 04:33 |
SpeedEvil | http://www.telecoms.com/18082/android-gets-faster-apps-better-graphics-longer-battery-life /me wonders. | 04:33 |
SpeedEvil | doubleukay: not really that I've seen. | 04:34 |
SpeedEvil | doubleukay: you have what looks like a normal - say - 250M disk cache of http pages at the proxy side. | 04:34 |
SpeedEvil | This is replicated at the client side. | 04:34 |
SpeedEvil | Any pages the client requests are served against diffs between the known state of the clients disk cache, and the page. The clients cache is then updated to keep them in sync | 04:35 |
SpeedEvil | The funky part is that foo.com/baz may end up as a diff from bar.com/fish - if that turns out to be the most similar page in the cache | 04:36 |
*** openstandards has quit IRC | 04:36 | |
SpeedEvil | preliminary studies seem to indicate it works. | 04:36 |
SpeedEvil | I just need to code it | 04:36 |
doubleukay | ah ok. yup, I don't think I've seen that before. | 04:37 |
doubleukay | would you be doing an optimal search, or a fuzzy one? | 04:37 |
SpeedEvil | Added benefits happen if there is a lot of latency, and you know what the client will want. | 04:37 |
ptl | doubleukay: host is not found, but with ping it returned the message "bad address 'downloads.maemo.nokia.com'" | 04:37 |
ptl | doubleukay: however, ping resolved the address for www.google.com | 04:37 |
SpeedEvil | For example - if the client always wants css - then you don't bother waiting for the client to see the css url in the page, and fetch it. | 04:38 |
SpeedEvil | fuzzy | 04:38 |
doubleukay | ptl: try the lookup against google dns - host downloads.maemo.nokia.com 8.8.8.8 | 04:40 |
*** JamieBen1ett has joined #maemo | 04:40 | |

ptl | weird | 04:41 |
SpeedEvil | it should | 04:41 |
SpeedEvil | tehre is a local resolver | 04:41 |
ptl | oh... | 04:41 |
ptl | the local resolver must have a problem then | 04:41 |
Kamui | well | 04:41 |
doubleukay | SpeedEvil: interesting project. do you have a blog I could follow? | 04:41 |
Kamui | well | 04:41 |
Kamui | since the reflash | 04:42 |
SpeedEvil | doubleukay: yes - here. | 04:42 |
SpeedEvil | :) | 04:42 |
SpeedEvil | I have a wlog | 04:42 |
Kamui | getting good battery life | 04:42 |
doubleukay | SpeedEvil: haha ok | 04:42 |
RevAaron | for me on wifi, slashdot.org - desktop ff renders the first story after 3s, iPhone 3GS after 6s, N800 microb 18s, N800 fennec 14s. | 04:42 |
SpeedEvil | http://www.mauve.plus.com/weight.gif | 04:42 |
SpeedEvil | this is perhaps not interesting to many | 04:42 |
ptl | I just saw that although there's no host utility, nslookup is there | 04:42 |
doubleukay | good progress. | 04:42 |
*** JamieBennett has quit IRC | 04:43 | |
ptl | and I resolved downloads.maemo.nokia.com through the google DNS server ok | 04:43 |
ptl | so it's indeed a problem in the local resolver | 04:43 |
SpeedEvil | odd | 04:43 |
doubleukay | ptl: but you could resolve other names with the local resolver couldn't you? | 04:43 |
Kamui | took me about 8 seconds in microb | 04:43 |
SpeedEvil | ptl: do you have dhcp/... or do you do the static thing | 04:43 |
Kamui | to get slashdot | 04:43 |
*** pupnik has joined #maemo | 04:43 | |
RevAaron | Kamui: more so, what is the speed difference between microb and firefox on the same device? | 04:44 |
Kamui | first 3 stories and images popped up all at the same time seemingly | 04:44 |
RevAaron | it does feel faster, that's for sure | 04:44 |
Kamui | i dont bother with fennec | 04:44 |
SpeedEvil | microb seems to render more completely | 04:44 |
GeneralAntilles | MicroB is still faster than Fennec. | 04:44 |
Kamui | too slow right now | 04:44 |
SpeedEvil | microb is _not_ faster than fennec | 04:44 |
Kamui | microb with flash on is faster than fennec with flash disabled | 04:44 |
RevAaron | still can't load engadget, though. heh. at least it doesn't choke on it, max out CPU, and freeze the window | 04:44 |
ptl | how do I reboot the n900? | 04:44 |
ptl | SpeedEvil: dhcp | 04:44 |
Kamui | as far as kinetic scrolling and responsiveness | 04:44 |
SpeedEvil | ptl: press power button, then 'switch off' | 04:45 |
ptl | SpeedEvil: but I programmed dhcp on my router to point to certain DNS and in my laptop it works ok | 04:45 |
SpeedEvil | That is - time to load a page completely is faster on fennec. | 04:45 |
SpeedEvil | for me at least | 04:45 |
Kamui | 5 seconds on engadget | 04:45 |
SpeedEvil | espeially when I kill microb | 04:45 |
Kamui | using microb | 04:45 |
RevAaron | Kamui: what device? | 04:46 |
Kamui | till i can start reading | 04:46 |
Kamui | n900 | 04:46 |
RevAaron | ahhh, ok. sounds like a pretty big improvement, then | 04:46 |
doubleukay | ptl: try cat /var/run/dhcp-params.conf | 04:46 |
doubleukay | might be a maemo-specific file, I haven't seen it on other linux systems before | 04:47 |
Kamui | u guys talking about the NI8x0? i just assumed 900 when i heard microb... | 04:47 |
Kamui | probably shouldnt have | 04:47 |
doubleukay | the third or the last entry seems to be the dns server | 04:47 |
SpeedEvil | Kamui: I guess it's a net congestion problem partially | 04:47 |
doubleukay | can you see what it's set to, and try running host for maemo.downloadswhatever.com against it? | 04:47 |
SpeedEvil | Kamui: I see 12s till engadget text shows up | 04:47 |
Kamui | hmm | 04:48 |
SpeedEvil | Kamui: beyond 'download iphone app' | 04:48 |
RevAaron | Kamui: yeah, I was asking if the N900 was usable for web browsing or not. I was toying with the idea of getting an N900, but after taking my N800 out of the closet I remembered why it went into the closet- for web browsing it's really quite painful | 04:48 |

RevAaron | doubleukay: the 770, N800, and N810 had a good community too... but it's still a mostly unusable device, at least for the basics. still fun to dink aroudn on it, but no way my N800 plus a cell phone could do the job of an iPhone or Android phone for me. at least, at this point. | 04:51 |

*** anpr has joined #maemo | 04:56 | |
SpeedEvil | Over a faster net connection - from a pure first load time - microb and fennec are now mostly equal | 04:56 |
GeneralAntilles | RevAaron, the N900 DESTROYS the iPhone for web browsing. | 04:57 |
RevAaron | zerojay: well, there's no flash. but there's still a lot of CSS, images, and JavaScript. anything really whacky flash-wise doesn't get along with my N800 anyway, so I avoid it. | 04:57 |
Kamui | well... | 04:57 |
RevAaron | GeneralAntilles: I hope so! Waiting to play with a friend's N900 later this month. | 04:57 |
Kamui | maybe destroy is a bit strong | 04:57 |
RevAaron | heh | 04:57 |
doubleukay | zerojay: yeah but then the interwebs rewrote itself for the iphone :P | 04:57 |

RevAaron | crashanddie: ...well, I think that's what you're telling me- you are using webchat even though there is an alternative. if I'm following you. but obviously, what you're doing is working just fine for you. carry on. | 05:21 |
crashanddie | and for double the price you get a dual core athlon 1.9 Ghz with 2GB of RAM | 05:21 |
crashanddie | RevAaron: I think you have your vocabulary confused: whether technically feasable doesn't necessarily imply it is an alternative. | 05:22 |
RevAaron | crashanddie: I understand the words, but it doesn't add up. Like I said, if you're happy with what you're doing I've no interest in changing that. :) | 05:24 |
crashanddie | RevAaron: an alternative (implying a viable alternative) would require me to have a server with VPN outside of my corporate network, which is not the case. Hence, there is no immediate or viable alternative, even though, and I fully agree with you, it is absolutely possible, technically speaking | 05:24 |

fernando2k | hi, I asked earlier but wasn't here to see if anyone replied | 05:35 |
fernando2k | what's the likelihood of this http://sourceforge.net/projects/gstm/ running on an N900? | 05:36 |
*** heaviside has joined #maemo | 05:36 | |
SpeedEvil | fernando2k: Zero. | 05:38 |
SpeedEvil | no gnome | 05:38 |
ptl | can't it be hildonized? | 05:38 |
doubleukay | fernando2k: lemme try installing it into the debian chroot.. | 05:38 |
SpeedEvil | Of course - you can run anything on a n900 - for some definitions. | 05:39 |
fernando2k | oh? doesn't it use er... gtk or something, which maemo has? (I'm kinda new at this lol) | 05:39 |
fernando2k | but yeah, if the GUI doesn't work, there's no point | 05:40 |
SpeedEvil | maybe ignore me - I'm tired. | 05:40 |
SpeedEvil | and am probably alseep. | 05:40 |
fernando2k | :P | 05:40 |
ptl | fernando2k: you brazilian? | 05:40 |
fernando2k | by birth, yes, but I live in the united states | 05:41 |
fernando2k | how'd you guess? :P | 05:41 |
ptl | your name. I'm brazilian too and I live in a tree in Amazon. Or in Campinas, Sao Paulo, I guess. | 05:41 |
doubleukay | fernando2k: it does seem to run - http://home.doubleukay.com/n900/Screenshot-20100210-143834.png | 05:42 |
fernando2k | awesome! :o | 05:42 |
doubleukay | but I haven't used this program before, so I can't verify if it does what it's supposed to | 05:42 |
ptl | wow... that was quite fast | 05:42 |
SpeedEvil | What I was meaning above was it's for some things that do run - unacceptable performance wise due to other constraints. | 05:42 |
fernando2k | indeed lol | 05:42 |
SpeedEvil | For example - if it pulls in 87M of libraries that are only used for the program - it may 'work' - but it will cause lots of stuff to swap out every time it's run | 05:43 |
fernando2k | so, debian chroot eh? I'll look into that | 05:43 |
fernando2k | ah yeah | 05:43 |
doubleukay | SpeedEvil: true that.. | 05:43 |
ptl | debian chroot? don't you use scratchbox for compiling this stuff, doubleukay ? | 05:43 |
doubleukay | ptl: I take the path of least resistance :) | 05:44 |
ptl | you've got a chrooted debian with ARM target? Or did you compile to x86 and ran itin the emulator? | 05:44 |
doubleukay | there's a easy-debian-chroot app | 05:44 |
ptl | but for ARM? | 05:44 |
doubleukay | yes | 05:44 |
ptl | cool | 05:45 |
fernando2k | oh, that's the thing that requires the debian image right? yeah, think I'll pass for now then :P | 05:45 |
fernando2k | can I try compiling from the source? does the N900 has make and all that fun stuff? | 05:46 |
ptl | yes, it has, but you have to install from the repositories | 05:46 |
ptl | and you shouldn't really run unpackaged stuff | 05:46 |
fernando2k | guess not, don't want to have to reflash it in case something goes wrong... | 05:47 |
doubleukay | the easy-debian-chroot is quite easy, but still.. not for the faint-hearted | 05:47 |

*** RevAaron has left #maemo | 05:48 | |
fernando2k | because I really don't want a 2gb image just to run something I can do on the terminal, with just a little more effort :P | 05:48 |
doubleukay | I'm still familiarizing myself with the community.. so I don't know what your next options are :) | 05:49 |
ptl | do you help developing skills? it might not be so difficult to hildonize it yourself | 05:50 |
ptl | *do you have | 05:50 |
fernando2k | none, haha | 05:50 |
ptl | I just got my N900 | 05:50 |
ptl | I'll try hildonizing a few apps by myself as soon as I get the grasp ofit | 05:51 |
ptl | I have already read some tutorials | 05:51 |
SpeedEvil | There are also other tools | 05:51 |
SpeedEvil | for example - the commandline-desktop applet | 05:51 |
fernando2k | I have an N800 and just got an N900, I kinda know maemo but kinda not at the same time :( | 05:51 |
fernando2k | commandline desktop? that sounds interesting | 05:51 |
SpeedEvil | which lets you do desktop widgets in a couple of lines of shell that can react to presses | 05:51 |
SpeedEvil | of course htey only do text output - but... | 05:52 |

*** bleeter_ has joined #maemo | 05:55 | |

fernando2k | it... doesn't have anything to do with /opt right? that'd be too obvious | 05:56 |
SpeedEvil | It means that all the major files are in /opt - with only symlinks if that in / | 05:56 |
ptl | fernando2k: http://wiki.maemo.org/Opt_Problem | 05:56 |
SpeedEvil | this means that / doesn't get full | 05:56 |
fernando2k | oooh | 05:56 |
fernando2k | haha, should have thought of it :P | 05:57 |

crashanddie | doubleukay: speed | 05:57 |
*** bleeter has quit IRC | 05:57 | |
fernando2k | what about the reason for having dots in front of the images documents etc folders? :P | 05:58 |
fernando2k | (it's annoying to use those when I mount the N900 as mass storage on os x) | 05:58 |
doubleukay | ok I see that now. the block device is split into the OneNAND and eMMC areas. | 05:58 |
crashanddie | aye | 05:58 |
ptl | doubleukay: yes, just google for unix filesystem hierarchy and you'l find the many reasons why it's this way :) | 05:59 |
*** bleeter_ has quit IRC | 06:00 | |

Wolfie | sounds weird, such haphazard behavior. | 09:40 |
sar3th | it seems like it's connected to the video's length, as my 25fps vid was /very/ short | 09:40 |
konttori | we have too many internal bugs in the system software side, that are not fixed, and we are nearing the time to start freezing the pr1.2 release. (which, by the way, to anybody interested won't mean pr1.2 would come any time soon, just that we are not integrating bug fixes like these anymore - only more serious issues) | 09:40 |
Wolfie | konttori: sounds great | 09:41 |
konttori | related to that, we integrated yesterday NEON optimizations to libjpeg, thanks to serge. Improves jpeg encode and decode 2x. | 09:41 |
* konttori is psyched out about that one. | 09:42 | |
thresh | that's cool | 09:42 |
thresh | now 'photos' is pretty useless when you have thousands of those on a device | 09:42 |
Wolfie | konttori: what practical (user noticeable) benefits would that gain? | 09:42 |
Wolfie | camera and album software work faster? | 09:43 |
konttori | image viewer speed improvements, thumbnailer speed improvements for sure, possibly also browser would be faster. | 09:43 |

Wolfie | ...or even hazard a guess? | 09:49 |

kulve | Lantizia: I'm quite busy for rest of the month. After that I'm hoping to get a new release with the all the patches I've got | 09:54 |
sar3th | it seems the 207 frames were just random, i'll check with premiere to make sure | 09:54 |
Lantizia | kulve: so which of those methods have been implemented in the patches? | 09:54 |
konttori | Wolfie: original decision was to not to include MMS, and then later, it seemed like too big certificaton effort to take on - also, there wasn't enough pressure to have it. | 09:55 |
konttori | let's face it, the other sharing options are much more useful. | 09:55 |
kulve | Lantizia: See bug #7413: http://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7413 | 09:55 |

Lantizia | kulve: oh I've already seen that - I just want to know if the patches you have include both support for embedded and cover.jpg | 09:56 |

Lantizia | kulve: sorry just noticed the newer John Steele Scott patch | 09:57 |
sar3th | okay premiere is too stupid, it drops frames automatically | 09:58 |
sar3th | maybe it's just adobe's fault, their apps not properly supporting mp4 videos | 09:58 |
konttori | kulve: ah, great. the fmms guy was waiting for the command line plugin to enable the MMS as sharing option. | 09:58 |
Lantizia | kulve: so theoretically the cover art that songbird 1.4 can embded in my Ogg files... the Nokia media player will show? :) and time frame for these patches to go into some firmware? | 09:58 |
Wolfie | konttori: sure, i'm not exactly pining for MMS, but it seemed a bit weird. Although, now that you said it, I'd remember that fMMS doesn't follow the spec 100%, so that explains it | 09:58 |
konttori | spec is immense. | 09:59 |

*** jgoss has joined #maemo | 10:55 | |
libben | im looking at that now | 10:55 |

WZhang | exactly, pw in shadow, user/shell in passwd | 11:45 |
mgedmin | timeless_mbp, nope, no shadow | 11:45 |

* timeless_mbp frowns | 11:45 | |

pupnik_ | thanks stskeeps for the only interesting thing in scrollback | 11:45 |
timeless_mbp | WZhang: except on embedded systems where the benefit of shadow is really minimal | 11:46 |
mgedmin | mece, correct, locked account | 11:46 |
WZhang | true | 11:46 |
mgedmin | pcfe, older maemo versions had hashed rootme; newer ones have a locked root account | 11:46 |
WZhang | I have somewhere here some unopened N900, if you really need it i look later | 11:46 |

*** zap_ has joined #maemo | 12:26 | |
timeless_mbp | Lantizia: you just need to get a usb-networking driver for windows :) | 12:26 |
MiXu- | Lantizia: Not in windows but you can set up a small linux virtual machine for that. | 12:26 |
timeless_mbp | they exist somewhere | 12:26 |
timeless_mbp | MiXu-: not true | 12:26 |
WZhang | Should not be to hard to make it for Windows too, i seen that on the Motorola V8 | 12:26 |

timeless_mbp | sar3th: eh? | 12:27 |
Lantizia | you mean like that - but with windows? | 12:27 |
timeless_mbp | Lantizia: so. the problem is that windows doesn't come w/ usb networking drivers | 12:27 |
MiXu- | Yes. | 12:27 |
timeless_mbp | unlike the n900, normal linux and os x | 12:27 |
sar3th | timeless_mbp: if i connect the n900 via usb to /my/ computer and select mass storage, it's recognized as a usb1.1 device | 12:28 |
timeless_mbp | but if you can find that driver, then yes | 12:28 |
sar3th | timeless_mbp: i've found somewhere on talk.maemo.org that you need to turn off the n900 before plugging in, then it'll work | 12:28 |
timeless_mbp | sar3th: how many usb ports does your computer have? | 12:28 |
sar3th | timeless_mbp: 8 i think | 12:28 |
timeless_mbp | are they all usb2? | 12:28 |

konttori | looks better. | 13:46 |

*** schasch has quit IRC | 16:07 | |
flux | jacekowski, how about measing the change in voltage? | 16:07 |
jacekowski | only way it would be measuring voltage and comparing it to known values measured in previous charge cycle | 16:07 |
cehteh | the volltage measureing actually must be quite accurated for the battery | 16:07 |
cehteh | but there are a lot influences which change the voltage .. | 16:08 |
flux | jacekowski, I was thinking rather like how much the battery voltage has changed in the last 30 minutes compared to the 30 minutes before that etc | 16:08 |
X-Fade | cehteh: yes, but needs to be measured while not charging. | 16:08 |
flux | doesn't it slow down the further you get? | 16:08 |
X-Fade | cehteh: you need resting voltage. | 16:08 |
jacekowski | flux: no | 16:08 |
cehteh | you need to watch it, interpolate, find out how fast its charging and know the charge end point | 16:08 |
flux | x-fade, but that resting period doesn't need to be very long, does it? | 16:08 |
flux | jacekowski, oh, never mind then :) | 16:08 |
jacekowski | flux: there are 2 basic types of batteries used in phones | 16:08 |
jacekowski | old NiCd | 16:09 |
cehteh | yes some daemon which watches it over time | 16:09 |
jacekowski | and new LiIon | 16:09 |
X-Fade | flux: No, you just need to turn the charge off and wait a very short time. | 16:09 |
X-Fade | jacekowski: It is LiPo | 16:09 |
*** dracflamloc has joined #maemo | 16:09 | |
cehteh | you can watch the charge voltage ... should siffoce | 16:09 |
flux | cehteh, one problem is that you also need to know how much you are consuming at the moment | 16:09 |
SpeedEvil | The battery voltage reported by hal is a very inacurate representation of the real voltage | 16:09 |
jacekowski | NiCD or acid batteries and couple other types are charged by directly applying constant voltage to them | 16:09 |
SpeedEvil | jacekowski: err - no, they are not | 16:09 |
*** thresh has quit IRC | 16:10 | |
X-Fade | cehteh: Internal resistance makes it measure a bit higher than the actual voltage is. | 16:10 |
cehteh | and? | 16:10 |
jacekowski | SpeedEvil: they are | 16:10 |
tybollt | so? | 16:10 |
X-Fade | cehteh: And as you need to be very careful around 4.2v, you need to turn off charging to measure. | 16:10 |
jacekowski | SpeedEvil: you apply constant voltage to them with some reasonable current limit just in case | 16:10 |
SpeedEvil | jacekowski: NiCd is charged by a constant current until a negative delta-v condition, or temperature or time thresholds. Lead acid is charged by a constant current followed by a float charge phase. | 16:10 |
*** emma has quit IRC | 16:10 | |
cehteh | i only need the end voltage from the last charging and the charge curve then i can roughly match that to the current charge cycle | 16:11 |
SpeedEvil | li-ion is more like lead-acid | 16:11 |
*** aswat has joined #maemo | 16:11 | |
jacekowski | with LiPol are charged by constant current | 16:11 |
X-Fade | That is why the last few percent take most of the time to charge. | 16:11 |
SpeedEvil | jacekowski: no, it's not. It's a constant current, then a constant voltage phase. | 16:11 |
*** thresh has joined #maemo | 16:11 | |
X-Fade | jacekowski: Until you reach 4.2 and then you go to CV phase. | 16:11 |
jacekowski | if you are in CV then battery is charged | 16:12 |
jacekowski | and that's not important for now | 16:12 |
SpeedEvil | and terminate charge when current reaches 1/20th or so of what it was in the entry to CV | 16:12 |
cehteh | as soon you are at CV you can just tell "almost full" and done .. maybe measure how long this takes and run a stopwatch and interpolate that over charge cycles | 16:12 |
SpeedEvil | if you're in CV your battery is 70-90% charged - depending on battery lifetime | 16:12 |

libben | i needed to stand like 50 cm from the antenna for it to really work | 16:33 |
SpeedEvil | (and the UK has it already turned up to max) | 16:33 |
SpeedEvil | That's assuming it emits as much as legally possible when turned up to 118 | 16:34 |
SpeedEvil | If you have picked a not empty channel - it's much under 4m | 16:34 |
libben | i dont think mine is set for that value =) | 16:34 |
libben | i need to stand like 50 cm from the antenna | 16:34 |
libben | i took a relative empty channel | 16:35 |
RST38h | Minor ROTFL: http://www.chucklorre.com/index-bbt.php?p=277 | 16:35 |
libben | with no close neighbours | 16:35 |
RST38h | (Warner finally meets an enemy they cannot sue =)) | 16:35 |
SpeedEvil | libben: the power is _tiny_ even best case. Any signal at all will pretty much kill your range. | 16:35 |
libben | even if u get it to run at 118 ? | 16:35 |
SpeedEvil | yes | 16:36 |
libben | i saw a video of a guy that boasted it to 118, and he was like 2-3 meters away from the car where he tried it | 16:36 |
jacekowski | libben: because he had better radio | 16:36 |
hrw | [SIGNAL] Phone.Net.cell_info_change ( 2, 41007, 32888749, 1, 260, 0, 0 ) | 16:36 |
hrw | [SIGNAL] Phone.Net.registration_status_change ( 0, 41007, 32888747, 1, 260, 0, 3 ) | 16:36 |
libben | probably =) | 16:36 |
SpeedEvil | To quote the BBC - However, the chosen maximum ERP of 50 nW is neither sufficiently small to avoid creating interference to broadcast reception nor sufficiently large to guarantee that such ‘Micro’ FM transmitters will actually work as intended in areas where Band II is utilised intensively, such as London | 16:36 |
hrw | [SIGNAL] Phone.Net.operator_name_change ( 3, "Plus", "", 1, 260 ) | 16:36 |
hrw | nice ;) | 16:36 |
hrw | [SIGNAL] Phone.Net.cell_info_change ( 2, 41007, 32888747, 1, 260, 0, 0 ) | 16:36 |
libben | my signal is not the best | 16:36 |
jacekowski | libben: some radios need much stronger signal | 16:36 |
SpeedEvil | 50nW is - as I understand it - the maximum of the hardware radio and coincidentally the UK legal limit | 16:37 |
pupnik | nanowatts? | 16:37 |
SpeedEvil | yes | 16:37 |
libben | well, should be easier to fix a line in cable =) | 16:37 |
pupnik | wow... | 16:37 |
jacekowski | yeah | 16:37 |
SpeedEvil | 15nW is the limit in the states | 16:37 |
jacekowski | 50nW is like a nothing | 16:37 |
jacekowski | compared to 2W transmitter for GSM | 16:38 |
SpeedEvil | The 2W transmitter has a range of ~10km. | 16:38 |
Arif | oh that'd be nice | 16:38 |
SpeedEvil | If you assume a similar radio - the square roots kick in. | 16:38 |
Arif | 10km from the N900 :D | 16:38 |
SpeedEvil | no - the GSm radio | 16:38 |
* ShadowJK has been 20km from nearest tower with n900 and it has worked fine | 16:39 | |
SpeedEvil | the resultant range would be about 1.5m | 16:39 |
jacekowski | as far as i remember gsm have range of 15km with that 2W transmitter | 16:39 |
SpeedEvil | which is about right | 16:39 |
WZhang | Windows bluetooth stack is pretty crappy | 16:39 |
*** danilocesar has quit IRC | 16:39 | |

tybollt | those are not real thinkpads | 16:41 |

Shapeshifter | Are there any special things to be aware of or can I go the "debian" way to make jabber understand msn and icq and those, and use them using the builtin IM thingy? | 16:48 |
dracflamloc | good morning | 16:48 |
DocScrutinizer | you're sure noise in a wire at room temp doesn't violate that? | 16:48 |
Shapeshifter | i.e. can I just install jabber-jit, jabber-msn and jabber-yahoo and edit the configs? will the maemo conversations app understand this? | 16:48 |
jacekowski | ibm don't make thinkpads anymore | 16:49 |
Robot101 | Shapeshifter: just enable maemo-testing and choose "Extra protocols for Conversations and Contacts" | 16:49 |
Robot101 | Shapeshifter: then you can create accounts for all of these other protocols | 16:49 |
jacekowski | and going back to IM in n900 | 16:49 |
jacekowski | how to import gadu-gadu contacts? | 16:49 |
Robot101 | there's already an IM framework (called Telepathy) in the N900, so you can just install these extra backends | 16:50 |
Shapeshifter | Robot101: okay thanks | 16:50 |
Robot101 | jacekowski: if you do that, you should get gg too | 16:50 |

Robot101 | ask on #telepathy, see if someone has time to help you debug it? | 16:52 |
amigadave | dneary: pong | 16:52 |
dneary | amigadave, You didn't like the Software page as a template for the Software category? | 16:52 |
dneary | I kind of thought it was OK - let us use the category page as a real portal | 16:53 |
amigadave | dneary: well, the Software page included the Software category, which was included by the Software category :) | 16:53 |
dneary | And the added advantage of taking care of a bunch of orphans :) | 16:53 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: it's really not | 16:53 |
dneary | Software os now an orphan | 16:53 |
amigadave | ah, but that is cheating! :P | 16:53 |
amigadave | i will fix up the orphans, do not worry :) | 16:53 |
dneary | I guess I could have taken Software out of the Software category | 16:53 |
Shapeshifter | Robot101: do I need "pidgin extra protocols" or "pidgin protocols plugin for conversations and contacts" or both? | 16:54 |
dneary | Links in category pages don't count for orphanage I'm afraid | 16:54 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: if you consider the impact. The range at which a 15uW transmitter messes reception of a signal at the borderline of coverage is really quite large. | 16:54 |
amigadave | dneary: oh, it also appears that i need sysop rights to delete a page, unless you would like to clear the ‘Articles marked for deletion’ for me? | 16:54 |
dneary | I can... I thought I gave you wiki admin privileges | 16:54 |
amigadave | admin, but not sysop | 16:55 |
dneary | I can't give you sysop privs | 16:55 |
amigadave | oh, ok | 16:55 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: http://www.ofcom.org.uk/consult/condocs/wtexemption/responses/bbc.pdf has more details - but... | 16:55 |
dneary | She dinnae have the powerrr cap'n | 16:55 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: damn, with 10 MILLI W WLAN I get a 30m maybe | 16:56 |
Robot101 | Shapeshifter: don't bother with those, just get the "Extra protocols..." and it will install what it needs | 16:56 |
jacekowski | i get 15km with 100mW | 16:56 |
jacekowski | and directional antennas | 16:56 |
DocScrutinizer | so with 10nW i see a 30cm I'd guess | 16:56 |

DocScrutinizer | eeh? | 17:07 |
w00t | Announce! | 17:07 |
* tybollt is eagerly awaiting gadgetoid's blogposts! | 17:07 | |
timeless_mbp | the maemo5 localization files were approved for "opening" | 17:07 |
timeless_mbp | whatever that means :) | 17:07 |
DocScrutinizer | LOL | 17:07 |
hrw | timeless_mbp: sources for *-l10n-* packages? | 17:07 |
timeless_mbp | yep | 17:07 |
hrw | good, no need for reversing them | 17:08 |
timeless_mbp | no ETA for actually seeing them in the repos | 17:08 |
timeless_mbp | but it should mean that i can start shipping w/ less concern | 17:08 |
DocScrutinizer | so I finally may get my beloved tnan_fi_home on maemo5 as well ;-P | 17:08 |
timeless_mbp | tybollt / hrw : could i get you to try my package? | 17:08 |
hrw | timeless_mbp: get it on paper with proper stamps and signs | 17:08 |
DocScrutinizer | tana_fi_home_thumb | 17:08 |
hrw | timeless_mbp: en-gb it was? | 17:08 |
tybollt | timeless_mbp: at your disposal sire. | 17:08 |
timeless_mbp | sure | 17:08 |
tybollt | how? | 17:09 |
hrw | timeless_mbp: but what I have to check? | 17:09 |
tybollt | and really | 17:09 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: in real world - 15nW gives you 4m - to a good reciever - on a clear channel | 17:09 |
* hrw monitors dbus on n900 with 3 tools now | 17:09 | |
tybollt | "try my package"... I have to try real hard for that not to sound like ... eww ;) | 17:09 |
timeless_mbp | heh | 17:09 |
tybollt | anyway how? | 17:09 |
timeless_mbp | i'll give instructions in the other channel | 17:10 |
timeless_mbp | but testing is basically anything/everything from the platform | 17:10 |
tybollt | sure | 17:10 |
timeless_mbp | a colleague and i recently discovered a bug in the official string selection that we believe was a 1.1 regression | 17:10 |
timeless_mbp | it took us a couple of months to notice | 17:10 |
tybollt | o_O | 17:10 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: would you agree this to be the maximun interference range as well? | 17:10 |
timeless_mbp | (it wasn't my fault, the app people neglected to inform the localization team about the new string, so no one had it!) | 17:10 |
SpeedEvil | no | 17:10 |
hrw | timeless_mbp: my english is not british (nor american) | 17:11 |
DocScrutinizer | uhuh | 17:11 |
tybollt | timeless_mbp: not looking to place guilt - I prefer pragmatism - if it can be fix, let's do it :) | 17:11 |
timeless_mbp | hrw: well, you'll have to pick one :) | 17:11 |
timeless_mbp | tybollt: my package has a fix for it now :) | 17:11 |
jacekowski | hrw: that's good | 17:11 |
timeless_mbp | but the point is that testing is really "whatever you can / might think to do" | 17:11 |
timeless_mbp | bonus points for things that _i'm_ less likely to do | 17:12 |
tybollt | ACK | 17:12 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: the power at which you can interfere with a clearly reieved signal at the margins of coverage is some 50dB weaker than the power required to be clearly recieved | 17:12 |
hrw | that reminds me one thing | 17:12 |
tybollt | timeless_mbp: sorry, don't know you well enough to tell what you may or may not do ;P | 17:12 |
hrw | ~curse rtcomm developers badly | 17:12 |
infobot | May you be reincarnated as a Windows XP administrator, rtcomm developers badly ! | 17:12 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: citation needed | 17:12 |
timeless_mbp | tybollt: fair enough :) | 17:12 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: see above pdf link | 17:12 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: for all I know the S/N margin for FM is as low as 6dB | 17:13 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: not if you want the audio to be nondisturbed. | 17:14 |
DocScrutinizer | compared to AM where your 50dB figure may be correct | 17:14 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: 6dB won't cut it in that case. | 17:14 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: anyway - see the BBC PDF for cites of all these figures | 17:14 |
DocScrutinizer | k | 17:14 |
SpeedEvil | http://www.ofcom.org.uk/radiocomms/ifi/licensing/classes/rlans/technical/tests/srdtests.pdf also | 17:14 |
SpeedEvil | Bear in mind also that this is weak signal performance. The reciever is barely on the cliff of 'full quieting'. | 17:16 |

sandman | In Ubuntu i use synaptic to update and install programs | 17:47 |
DocScrutinizer | which right he has to do _that_ either ? | 17:47 |
tybollt | sandman: there's an "application manager" browse the menus | 17:48 |
tybollt | DocScrutinizer: again, it is probably _illegal_ moral or not... | 17:48 |
sandman | ok.. that uses repositorys? | 17:48 |
toggles_w | sandman: apt-get works, the "preffered" user method is through the appmanager (more like ubuntu app manager than synaptic) | 17:48 |
toggles_w | yes | 17:48 |
sandman | cool | 17:49 |
tybollt | sandman: yes, the app manager is basically a wrapper around apt w/ some spinkles and jelly on it | 17:49 |

DocScrutinizer | tybollt: and I'm just saying laws are insane. Look at PLC blasting out at several 100mW over a whole AC installation of a building used as giant TX antenna. Wideband | 17:53 |
*** AndrewFBlack has joined #maemo | 17:53 | |
DocScrutinizer | tybollt: and then they sweat it on 250uW for a narrowband FM-TX | 17:54 |
SpeedEvil | A range of 300m for a personal FM TX is insane. | 17:55 |
SpeedEvil | Which is approximately what 250uW would give you | 17:55 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: that's not what the paper you linked to is suggesting | 17:56 |
SpeedEvil | With a 50nW transmitter - to a radio on an interference free channel - you get 8m range. | 17:57 |

*** promulo has quit IRC | 19:44 | |
cehteh | anyways they camera is quite good for a phone cam | 19:44 |

*** zap__ has joined #maemo | 19:44 | |
* Arif finds the LED flashlight app more useful than the camera itself | 19:45 | |
Arif | :D | 19:45 |
cehteh | yes but the wavelength ins in some hundedreds of nanometers scale for visible light | 19:45 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: the diameter of the lens - 1.8mm - divided by the field of view gives you a number of resolvable pixels of some 2MP IIRC | 19:45 |
SpeedEvil | Sure,. | 19:45 |
SpeedEvil | 1.22*500nm/1.8mm = a bit more than half a milliradian IIRC | 19:46 |
cehteh | no doubt that the lens is too bad for 5mp .. but on the other hand noise and jpeg compression will do the rest ... | 19:46 |

SpeedEvil | At 1m - the flashlight brightness is ~15lux | 19:48 |
cehteh | 3.5mm has 3 contacts? the outer prolly just ground? | 19:48 |
cehteh | the flash has a quite broad flood angle .. | 19:48 |
ShadowJK | 2 contacts | 19:49 |
cehteh | i see 3 from looking at it | 19:49 |
cehteh | well i dont know maybe just the connector at the adapter has three | 19:50 |
cehteh | middle pin and 2 rings | 19:50 |
ShadowJK | Oh it's just 2 on the ground for added reliability | 19:50 |
SpeedEvil | the screen peaks at maybe 2 | 19:50 |

cehteh | ShadowJK: ah ok thanks .. you know about polarity? | 19:50 |

lcuk | veggen, higher votes mean more people have tested and confirmed different aspects of it | 20:07 |
cehteh | ShadowJK: i thought i could just add some rectifier, a cap and maybe a protecting zener diode and feed that to the charge adapter | 20:08 |
Veggen | ok, which in general means less likely to break ;) | 20:08 |
cehteh | (from bike hub dynamo) | 20:08 |
*** emma has joined #maemo | 20:08 | |
lcuk | Veggen, your testing run might be the first to find a break! | 20:08 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: why crazy? | 20:08 |
cehteh | see page 17 .. charger identification by voltage | 20:08 |
Veggen | lcuk: oh sure. I understand the general risks about not-so-tested software. | 20:09 |
*** eMHa has joined #maemo | 20:09 | |
ShadowJK | cehteh, also note the current limits :) | 20:09 |
cehteh | and there are some other no-go voltage/amperage areas | 20:09 |
cehteh | yes | 20:09 |
lcuk | Veggen, sure, just trying to help you decide to break your SLA :) | 20:09 |
*** Acedip has joined #maemo | 20:10 | |
*** ioeee has joined #maemo | 20:10 | |
ShadowJK | The reason for current limits is that the input power is fed directly to the battery mostly unfiltered, through a slow PWM (slow as in 1 hz) | 20:10 |
ShadowJK | If the current is too strong the battery can't take it | 20:10 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: for USB - you just apply 5V | 20:10 |
ShadowJK | cehteh, in my experience with various devices with 3.5mm and 2mm ports, their own voltage measurement wasn't all that accurate with regard to the voltage and current windows :/ | 20:11 |
cehteh | SpeedEvil: since a hub dynamo is a quite dirty source i thought i could recycle the charger adapter from the package to give it some treatment (after simple rectification) | 20:11 |

*** andre900 has joined #maemo | 20:12 | |
*** rsalveti has joined #maemo | 20:12 | |
*** ptlo has joined #maemo | 20:12 | |
cehteh | getting 5V (and nothing else) from the dynamo wont be easy either | 20:12 |
cehteh | a linerar regulator has too much loss | 20:13 |
*** skler` has joined #maemo | 20:13 | |
cehteh | and wont kick in when driving slowly | 20:13 |
SpeedEvil | use one of the many energy harvester modules to feed a battery or very large cap | 20:13 |
*** hardaker has quit IRC | 20:13 | |
cehteh | then it takes ages to get to the working point | 20:14 |
cehteh | (charging the cap) | 20:14 |
RST38h | Anyone worked with sophia-sip client??? | 20:14 |
RST38h | (looks like it is sending a malformed invite) | 20:15 |
cehteh | i posted the bumm E-Werk yesterday .. but its expensive, i thought i can try by myself | 20:15 |
*** DangerMaus_ has quit IRC | 20:15 | |
ShadowJK | cehteh, in practice when voltage drops the phone will consume less.... at 3.5V it'll eat nothing | 20:16 |
cehteh | SpeedEvil: http://www.bumm.de/docu/361e.htm | 20:16 |
ShadowJK | but hopefully still consider the charging documented | 20:16 |
ShadowJK | uh | 20:16 |
ShadowJK | but hopefully still consider the charger connected | 20:16 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: you don't care if it takes time to start | 20:16 |
cehteh | ShadowJK: well a rectifier and cap isnt expensive .. i prolly just give it a try | 20:16 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: with a large 8V2 zener in parallel | 20:16 |
cehteh | 9.3V ... | 20:17 |
SpeedEvil | 8V2 | 20:17 |
SpeedEvil | you don't want to go anywhere near 9.3 | 20:17 |
cehteh | well bikes have 6v protection already .. (in germany at least) | 20:17 |
ioeee | hola, tengo un N900 que no le funciona el gps (no encuentra señal) hay que activar o instalar algo? | 20:18 |
cehteh | just thinking .. 6Vx1.44 ... the zener will barf | 20:18 |
timeless_mbp | ioeee: no | 20:18 |
timeless_mbp | pero nostoros no hablamos español | 20:18 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: not a large one | 20:18 |
cehteh | (but the dynamo doesnt give a pure sine wave, and not to forget the loss on the rectifier) | 20:18 |
ioeee | lo siento pero no hablo ingles | 20:19 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: the right way to do this is with a peak power tracker - but that's a bit complex | 20:19 |
cehteh | SpeedEvil: with barf i mean heat the energy away while i rather want to use it | 20:19 |
timeless_mbp | ioeee: podria usar translate.google.com ? | 20:19 |
ioeee | por supuesto | 20:19 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: if there is more energy than the phone can handle - you need to store it in a battery or throw it away | 20:19 |
timeless_mbp | ioeee: bueno | 20:20 |
cehteh | yeah or use it for the lighting | 20:20 |
SpeedEvil | cehteh: wander over to ##electronics | 20:20 |

timeless_mbp | ioeee: it can take perhaps 10 minutes standing outside in an open space on a clear day to get a lock | 20:20 |

timeless_mbp | (standing still) | 20:20 |
cehteh | well i just try it sometime next .. no biking weather here anyways | 20:20 |

timeless_mbp | if you haven't actually stood still for 10 minutes, outside in an open area (not in a major city with lots of tall buildings), on a day where there aren't clouds in the sky | 20:21 |
timeless_mbp | then you don't really know that it isn't working | 20:21 |

ioeee | timeless_mbp, is a problem? | 20:24 |
LinuxCode | lcuk, address please | 20:24 |
timeless_mbp | try opening settings, in the connectivity section you should see gps and location | 20:24 |
lcuk | LinuxCode, pardon | 20:24 |

timeless_mbp | i have [x] GPS, GPS device = Internal GPS | 20:24 |

Qaiku is a technical inheritor or Jaiku legacy, with more features that Jaiku had. Jaiku had feed import, threaded conversations etc. Qaiku has language support far beyond Jaiku, and even Buzz.

SpeedEvil | I was somewhat surprised when I did the numbers to find out how many of my daily calories were coming from milk. | 23:04 |
Lumpio- | Weightlessness would probably be fun for a while, but for a lifetime? no thanks | 23:04 |
lcuk | damn you! | 23:04 |
lcuk | >> afk | 23:05 |
SpeedEvil | Taking my coffee 20C hotter for example - as a stupid example - meant I actually taste it rather than glugging it down, and use less milk. | 23:05 |
SpeedEvil | Also - when you feel like a snack but you know you shouldn't - just play angrybirds for a bit. | 23:05 |
tybollt | Have I come to the weightwatchers forum by accident? :-S | 23:06 |

Toba_ | sending email from the n900 just says "failed" but does not offer an error message of any kind | 23:07 |
Lumpio- | I can live without snacks. I just need to find a healthier source for my main meals | 23:07 |
Toba_ | is there some way I can configure the mail application to actually tell me what is wrong? | 23:07 |
SpeedEvil | Toba: I used strace | 23:08 |
Toba_ | seriously? | 23:08 |
SpeedEvil | which is spectacularly the wrong way to do it. | 23:08 |
Toba_ | yes | 23:08 |
SpeedEvil | But worked. | 23:08 |
Toba_ | wow | 23:08 |
SpeedEvil | Somehow it turned out that my hostname had gotten set to sixteen NULs which was upsetting modst. | 23:09 |
SpeedEvil | also pidgin | 23:09 |

Toba_ | I would hope so. | 23:14 |
GeneralAntilles | hexagoon, not if you're planning on uploading it to non-free. :) | 23:14 |
Toba_ | hahaha what | 23:14 |
Toba_ | i think it goes the other way, GeneralAntilles ;) | 23:14 |
Lumpio- | SpeedEvil: Don't think it does | 23:14 |
GeneralAntilles | Toba, if he's planning on "recompiling" then it sounds like he's doing it locally. | 23:14 |
GeneralAntilles | Which sounds like he's just planning on uploading a binary. | 23:15 |
GeneralAntilles | Which aint gonna work. | 23:15 |
Toba_ | I figure he means cross compiling... | 23:15 |
hexagoon | GeneralAntilles: Well, sourcing the original package, repack it and upload to extras :P | 23:15 |
Toba_ | remember hexagoon it's an ARM chip | 23:15 |
GeneralAntilles | Toba, that doesn't mean anything different. :) | 23:15 |
GeneralAntilles | Toba_, if he's uploading it to Extras, it's going through the autobuilder which handles the compilation. :) | 23:16 |
Toba_ | heh | 23:16 |
Toba_ | I should shut up about things I don't know as much about as I thought I did. | 23:16 |

mk8 | hexagoon: I not know .. I install the maemo-sdk-debug package in the HOST environment | 23:45 |
mk8 | to compile the C code I simply use "gcc inotify.c -o inotify.bin" ... on all the environment, I never specify any external lib | 23:46 |
*** jon1012 has quit IRC | 23:47 | |
luke-jr | mk8: you need to if it uses an external lib | 23:48 |
luke-jr | when invoked as 'gcc', it by default links libc | 23:48 |
*** anpr has joined #maemo | 23:49 | |
luke-jr | for inotify tho, there are no libs.. | 23:50 |
mk8 | right luke-jr, but inotify is in the kernel so I suppose that is resolved by libc | 23:50 |
luke-jr | mk8: I don't think libc provides kernel interfaces | 23:50 |
luke-jr | but I don't know how they are resolved :| | 23:50 |
Toba_ | heh | 23:50 |
ShadowJK | you can syscall() kernel things glibc doesn't know about | 23:52 |
v13 | for some things, glibc provides just aliases against syscalls() | 23:54 |
mk8 | ShadowJK: the problem is more complex. I identify that an not able to compile code that use inotify ... but I need to compile a big crunch of code that I not write and use inotify .... | 23:55 |
v13 | you can always get the inotify code from glibc and add it to the code | 23:55 |
v13 | but make sure that inotify actually works on mameo's kernel first :) | 23:56 |
*** sphenxes has quit IRC | 23:56 | |
