*** Vratha has joined #maemo00:03
Shapeshifterred: yeah but, while I don't know anything about it, I don't think the cia has some "exclusive" rights to it, and "logging" isn't exactly a wrong thing to do with banking transaction. Actually, it's extremely important00:03
redit had something to do with the swiss company having their servers located at US for some legal reasoin00:04

wiretappedawesome, my n900 just did that thing where it gets a call, drops it, starts playing music, and stops responding to input01:56
wiretappedso my officemates were just treated to over a minute of the music i was last listening to01:56
pupnik_heh01:57
*** amaurymedeiros has joined #maemo01:58
andre900the "stops responding to input" part is new to me01:58
aakashdanyone know where I can get the latest firmware image for the n900 (not UK)01:58
aakashd?01:58
* wiretapped is tickled pink that, though this is probably a bug in one of nokia's numerous proprietary components around the telephony functionality, it generally reflects poorly on linux/free software as a phone OS01:59
aakashdI went to http://wiki.maemo.org/Upgrading_tablet_OS#Flashing_your_Nokia_tablet and the link to the image directs to an Error page01:59

toresbeHey, just got my N900 and _very_ happy with it, with a very few exceptions... chief amongst them, the alarm clock gives up before I've woken up02:35

pupnik_sleep 25000 && mplayer pig_halal_slaughter.mp302:38
toresbeThat's what I used to do on my laptop02:38

pupnik_yup02:38
*** xeor has joined #maemo02:38
toresbeAh, excellent! Thanks.02:38
toresbeBTW, is there any particular reason why the ringtone only plays the first few seconds and loops that instead?02:39

toresbeI like this channel. I think I'll stay here. ;)02:42
toresbeThe ringtone thing is a bother, though. Do you think it warrants a bug report, or is there a reason it would become a WONTFIX?02:43
*** Xisdibik has joined #maemo02:44
pupnik_toresbe: It is dangerous to go alone. Take this! http://ageofikon.info/packrat/index.php?Action=list&System=OS2008&Arg=screen&Section=&Repo=002:44

DocScrutinizerD.A.F Musolini :-P02:48
toresbeAh, fun! I like that one.02:49
njsf_Anyone knows if there is any additional app for custom ring tones per caller ?02:49
DocScrutinizernjsf_: not *yet* - there's quite a number of projects tackling that though02:50
njsf_Any one of them in extras-devel ? Or even too early for that ?02:51
toresbeI _really_ like my N900, btw. And not just for the geeky stuff like being able to freakin' SSH into my phone. SSH!02:51
toresbeI scp mp3s to it! it's brilliant!02:51
njsf_I wouldn't mind be a guinea pig02:51
toresbeI ssh'd from my old symbian phone to my new phone!02:51
RST38bisyou can ssh into android02:51
DocScrutinizernjsf_: none has reached an alpha state yet02:51
toresbeI know, but still fairly crazy.02:51
*** Harriv has quit IRC02:52
njsf_to me the best feature of the N900 is the python builtin02:52
toresbeTo me it's the good UI02:52
RST38bisthe truth is, maemo is no longer exclusive in its niche (:02:52
toresbeMaemo actually has a very good UI which I sort of didn't expect, because it's Linux.02:52
njsf_well I have had some frequent "freezes" with PR1.1.1 so the UI I have mixed feelings. Pretty but not snappy :(02:53
RST38bislinux has nothing to do with ui02:53
*** Harriv has joined #maemo02:53
*** Appiah has quit IRC02:53
DocScrutinizernjsf_: the problem with caller specific ringtones is: dialer app is closed source, and nobody seems to know how to swap the ringtone 'on the fly'02:55
njsf_DocScrutinizer: is any of the projects in garage? Maybe I could lend a hand?02:55
*** z4chh has joined #maemo02:55
*** seer has joined #maemo02:56
njsf_DocScrutinizer: yeah, I thought so. My guess is the only way is by having the file be a pipe and listen to the caller notif in D-Bus then feed the real data through the pipe02:56
toresbeRST38bis: Most "hey, it's got Linux"-marketed devices I've seen have had horrible UIs.02:56
*** pvanhoof has quit IRC02:56
*** k-s[AWAY] is now known as k-s02:56
njsf_that is if the dialer app does not check for the file not to be a pipe02:56
DocScrutinizerI don't know about particular project names, just about couple of guys asking related questions here and discussing how to tackle the whole thing02:56
*** b0unc3_ has joined #maemo02:57
toresbeI find myself wishing for a tinyhttpd on the N900 though. :)02:57
njsf_ic, thanks anyway!02:57
DocScrutinizernjsf_: that's a good idea indeed02:57
njsf_toresbe: I believe lighthttpd is in one of the extras02:57
toresbeOdd, I did search for httpd02:57
DocScrutinizernjsf_: catching the caller notif on dbus is a snap02:58

DocScrutinizer[2010-03-16 01:55:05] <DocScrutinizer> njsf_: the problem with caller specific ringtones is: dialer app is closed source, and nobody seems to know how to swap the ringtone 'on the fly'05:57
DocScrutinizerrepo seems borked atm. Some complaints in last few hours05:58
dmj7261Perhaps I will file a bug, and then wait on implementing phone functions.05:59
njsf_Well there are many basic issues with the phone app as it stands now IMO06:00
njsf_most actually already bugs06:00
*** dockane has joined #maemo06:00
dmj7261I'd be glad to fix the bugs if I could.06:00
njsf_like, Celular call an option even when celular network is not available (either for real / phone off/ or no sim)06:00
njsf_dmj7261: me too06:00
DocScrutinizerdialer app is CRAP, and it's closed :-/06:00
dmj7261Actually most of the apps I complain about being crap in one way or another are closed.06:01
njsf_Well contacts is actually not much better06:01
dmj7261media player, camera app, dialer, ...06:01
njsf_but the problem I have with contacts I may actually be able to fix once I get the time06:01
DocScrutinizerLOL06:01
njsf_because I have a contact that cannot be deleted06:01
njsf_somehow the EDS record is locked06:02
njsf_even accross reboots06:02
njsf_no merge of contact, no edit ebook removal06:02
dmj7261sounds like time for terminal fu06:02
DocScrutinizergreat :-D06:02
njsf_And the "delete the IM field removes it from the server list" is just attrocious, sometimes it is the right choice, but a mistake can be awkward06:03
njsf_"why did you remove me from your contact list'06:03
njsf_and it is not an option, just a warning, So if you merged wrongly, you're toast trying tto fix it06:03
DocScrutinizerthat's all a POC at best06:03
*** dockane_ has quit IRC06:03
njsf_Oh, and Ovi Suite actually synced contacts and calendar06:04
njsf_but the lastest 'improvement update' just removed calendar sync for N900 and made contact crash (probably the lock triggered it)06:04
njsf_Closed Nokia stuff is really in the way. Only cool thing there is the SIP+Skype integration06:05
njsf_Conversations is dog slow to display...06:05
dmj7261from what I hear, the skype thing is actually far better for us than the winmo/android users.06:06
DocScrutinizereven there are bugs06:06
njsf_It takes me ~40s between a notification and a window to open for a contact that I have some history with... yay for javascript filling of the conversation window06:06
dmj7261winmo users just lost their ability to get a skype app.06:06
njsf_yes, skype and sip are the highlights, but everything else is pain06:06
DocScrutinizerinbound SIP calls are like "SIP:234556@mySIP.com" - no match with contacts numbers06:06
njsf_nokia should just make the dbus interface for this, provide a default UI06:07
njsf_and open the floodgates for community innovation06:08
dmj7261agreed06:08

DocScrutinizerfriggin nokia dbus not even supports introspection06:08
DocScrutinizerwell dialer probably closed for "dfferentiation reasons" - seems Nokia is determined to differentiate to the worse side :-P06:10
*** amaurymedeiros has quit IRC06:11
njsf_DocScrutinizer: Well that is why I say: open a dbus interface that does not call your UI. they can keep their crap differentiation :)06:12
dmj7261If their ui is closed I don't care *that* much, unless the ui actually includes the system functionality, then it's a problem.06:12
DocScrutinizer"we promise you get world leading crap for dialer, with your Maemo phone"06:12
njsf_and then they have something like Palm OS 5 *still does* where 3rd party devs emulate the cool dialer du jour06:12
njsf_because they can actually interface with the phone api06:12
njsf_without the UI in the middle06:13
njsf_(at least the dialer, the on-call is also not overridable unfortunatelly)06:13
njsf_oh well enough ranting...06:14
njsf_I actually like the N900, its just though love... You want it to improve06:14
njsf_cya all tomorrow!06:14

slackmagicptl: you're also having problems with yours?06:37
ptlno06:38
ptltwo guys on the mailing list, I think06:38
DocScrutinizerslackmagic: you need a) a radio with whip antenna, *NO* antenna cable to some roof antenna,  and b) enable FM-TX in media player forex, then turn the dial on your radio to spot the N900, while the N900 not more than 1m away from antenna whip06:38
*** Erod has quit IRC06:40
slackmagicDocScrutinizer: yep, I tried that. As a matter of fact tried it today with a friend's car. I knew he uses a small fm transmitter to transmit his music - used same frequency, not working there either.06:41
*** hardaker2 has joined #maemo06:41
*** hardaker has quit IRC06:41
DocScrutinizer(used same freq) that's not the way it works, though. Your freq reading well may be off quite a bit from the one on other TX devices as well as the one on the radio06:43
DocScrutinizeryou should scan at least +/- 1MHz06:43
DocScrutinizerI suggest you use a mobile radio for first tests, and place the N900 a few cm away from telescope antenna06:45
DocScrutinizerN900 TX is *extremely* weak. Max 2 meters or somesuch, under *optimum* conditions06:46
DocScrutinizerother TX devices may be 100 times more power and 10 times the max distance between antenna and device06:48
*** swc|666 has quit IRC06:48

Elvaron_n900its not "required" it might simply be more convenient than throuth the browser11:43
Appiahyou want a own written interface for specific banks? :)11:43
*** rmoravcik has joined #maemo11:43
Elvaron_n900at least some of them should have common interface? i think they had such a tool on the apple zombiephone11:44
Appiahwhich banks?11:44
Appiahin what country?11:44
hrwheoa: 1mm11:44
burchrGeneralAntilles: hehe.11:45
burchrGeneralAntilles: I just wanted to put that $0.02 forward.11:45
hrwheoa: all tablets used 1mm, n900 uses microusb11:45
AppiahHere I've seen maybe 5 banks that you can access online , none of them have anything common when it comes to their websites11:45
heoahrw: what is the 2mm socket for then?11:45
Elvaron_n900germany in my case, but it was a general question abouth why there isnt one. not necessary suffices :)11:45
Shrik3Elvaron_n900: not many banks have open interfaces for consumers11:45
Elvaron_n900kay11:46
Appiahwell tghe reason why there is none is that there is no common api/interface for banks11:46
Shrik3you can get a standard-ish interface if you're a company, but that costs €€€11:46
alturiakgerman banks mostly use HBCI11:46
Shrik3so basically you'd have to use screen scraping11:46
Appiahall I seen so far that some banks have common here in sweden is a way to auth11:46
Shrik3and get around the authentication somehow11:46
hrwheoa: moment11:46
Appiahbut thats the auth only11:46
Elvaron_n900yea i thought there was something, didnt remember the acro is hbci11:46
alturiakwhich seems to be used in germany only, though. but at least it's common (t)here - and pretty secure11:46
Veggenfor personal banking, there's not any standardised interfaces, but there are some semi-standardised interfaces for transfer of bulk paiments, etc, for the corporate banking world.11:46
Veggenprobably on national level only standardisation, though.11:47
hrwheoa: n810 has power and headphones (3.5mm) connectors on right side11:47

X-FadeDon't expect anything wroking from MeeGo for end-users in quite a while.13:57
X-FadeFor developers, yes.13:58
RichardPX-Fade: well, the concern is if Nokia drop maemo and only go meego, then the upgrade route is uncertain.  but then maemo version Y might not be N900 compat either i guess13:58
*** joppu has quit IRC13:58

X-FadeGeneralAntilles: In open mode you can use any kernel.17:15

ShadowJKThey have a battery for N800/N810 that is physically just slightly smaller than the original, and is claimed to be 1800mAh (original is 1500mAh)... I ordered one18:08
ShadowJKtested out as 1200mAh :)18:08

*** wazd has joined #maemo18:08
ShadowJKHeck, the battery itself told my N800 that it's 1200mAh18:08
SpeedEvilhow tested?18:09
SpeedEvilah18:09
ShadowJKSpeedEvil, second by second current measurement from full to empty, integrate18:09
SpeedEvilThe best way to measure it is to weigh it full and empty, and compare weights.18:09

ShadowJKSelling replacement batteries with overstated capacity worked back when people bought batteries because they didn't get enough talk/standby time anymore18:11
*** jayabharath has quit IRC18:12
ShadowJKbecause then their phone was a year or two old, and a 1500mAh battery would have degraded to less than 1200mAh by then, and the increased internal resistance makes the battery meter behaviour "worse"18:12
ShadowJKso popping in a fresh 1200mAh battery in place of an aged battery would still be a big improvement18:13
*** aarapov_ has joined #maemo18:13
noobmonk3ylol my battery has never gone above 94% :D - hehe18:13
ShadowJKOverstating capacity doesn't work so well today when new dumbphones cost 20-30 bucks... people mostly buy batteries to try extend their new shiny powerhungry smartphones' batterylife18:13

luke-jrShadowJK: maybe I'd better stay away from the charging algos :)20:29
ShadowJK"lithium-ion is unable to absorb overcharge. A continuous trickle charge above 4.05V/cell would causes plating of metallic lithium that could lead to instabilities and compromise safety. Instead, a brief topping charge is provided to compensate for the small self-discharge the battery and its protective circuit consume. Depending on the battery, a topping charge may be repeated once every 20 days. Typically, the charge kicks in when the open terminal volt20:29
ShadowJKage drops to 4.05V/cell and turns off at a high 4.20V/cell.20:29

ShadowJKNokia devices do not trickle-charge. Luke wanted to change bme so that they trickle charge.20:31
* ptl doesn't know what is trickle-charge and will google for it now20:31
ShadowJKptl, trickle charge = keeping the battery constantly topped up20:31
ShadowJKluke-jr, so basically Li-Ion has "easier" charging rules/algorithm than, say, Nickel Metalhydride (nimh), but Li-Ion is very intolerant of deviations from it20:33
ptlat the same level of self-discharging... just saw on wikipedia20:33

ShadowJKluke-jr, overcharging causes plating of metallic lithium, and overdischarge causes copper shunts to form, which cause partial or total electric shorts. When you apply power across a short, it generates heat. There is a mechanical device connecting the battery to the battery terminals, that disconnects at a certain temperature. However, this doesn't work reliably when there's a localized short inside the battery that generates a very local thermal hotspot.20:37
ShadowJK It's like a spark that ignites it all, and Li-Ion goes into "thermal runaway" at pretty low temperatures..20:37

ShadowJKluke-jr, well you don't want metal inside the battery either ;-)20:39
ShadowJKBut you said earlier you wanted to change battery low behaviour20:39
ShadowJKA batter goal would be to make bme handle old batteries better. As it is, when a battery is fully charged it assumes it has as much energy as the battery had as new. Then when it runs out (or comes to the battery low warning threshold), it comes as a total surprise to the meter (and the user)..20:41

microlithindeed22:07
lcukthe best case is by supporting and giving extremely POSITIVE reaction en-masse to the community ssu and by getting developers of current community n900 only apps to also backport their own titles22:07
lcukand gain momentum that way22:07
microlithat the time it was in the task switcher22:07
microlithso the meter wasn't visible22:07
lcuktimeless_mbp, kaie ^^22:08
lcukoffer backports to the open source components in our n900 - theres a lot of code in gitorious22:08

*** crashanddie has quit IRC22:09

kaielcuk, my point is simple, nokia still supports maemo, still supports microb. All I ask for is a software update of microb, which is the most important piece of software, and it's maintained by nokia, not by the community, so I expect action from nokia22:10
*** xeor has quit IRC22:10
*** Andrewfblack has quit IRC22:10
*** tackat has quit IRC22:10
kaieI don't think community momentum influences nokia's decision to backport microb or not22:11
lcukkaie, timeless is correct in everything he has said, moving mountains just because of a few random irc comments gets us nowhere22:11
lcukbut if involvement in backporting is something because eeryone else is - then it becomes easier22:11

kaielcuk, you're talking about a thing that might happen or not. Why should I wait longer and hope? I don't understand why this would be necessary. I can use most software on n810 fine. It seems to work fine in most areas. I like the fact that a lot of software is available. The community appears to work.22:16
kaieIt's just the primary software that doesn't get updates22:16
kaieif romaxa was able to backport microb already, nokia should simply allow to get it completed and publish it, that's it22:17
lcukhow do you get it to users?22:17

I am not connected to a wifi network, but it shows some bars to the right of the battery icon, would that mean the wifi adapter is turned on?23:02
