ds3any change that fmms can be enhanced to remember the current connection; disconnect; connect to the right APN; get MMS; and restore original connection?00:13
*** ponyofdeath has joined #maemo00:13
ds3s/change/chance/00:13
infobotds3 meant: any chance that fmms can be enhanced to remember the current connection; disconnect; connect to the right APN; get MMS; and restore original connection?00:13
fralsit *could* but its pretty disruptive to force a disconnection and the api docs explicitly say "dont use this in your application" so ehh yaeh00:14
*** millenomi has quit IRC00:14
ds3Oh00:14
*** millenomi has joined #maemo00:14
ds3it is very annoying having to manually manage the connection shuffling00:15
ds3esp. when I am already on WiFi at the moment ;)00:15
fralsif you enable experimental mode it *should* autoconnect00:15
fralsmight/might not work thou and might make the phone unable to get a gprs connection up afterwards until a reboot00:15
fralsnot that ive ever had that happen in actual use00:16
ds3how do I enable experimental mode?00:16
fralsget 0.5.4 and just open configuration00:17
ds3where do I get 0.5.4? I have 0.5.3 but that's downloaded via the app mgr00:17
fralsuh i uploaded it yesterday00:17
fralshttp://maemo.org/packages/view/fmms00:17
ds3so I should refresh my list, I take it00:18
fralsdunno hasnt showed up on my device either, might be something fubar with repos or what not00:18
fralseither way i gotta head back to bed00:18
ds3oh okay... thanks00:18
*** zs_ has quit IRC00:19
*** amaurymedeiros has joined #maemo00:19
fralsbasically you can enable it in 0.5.3 with gconftool-2 -s /apps/fmms/exp --type int 1 or something similar00:19
ds3I'll try to get 0.5.400:20
ShadowJKDocScrutinizer, wait, did you identify a "bq24150" on your N900? Because the L3&L4 manual says bq2145000:20
*** zs_ has joined #maemo00:20

SpeedEvilptl, delays for 1.1.1 firmware was over a month00:35
ptl:(00:36
* noobmonk3y aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh's00:37
anotnacit cant be too long away if it id decision to update everything early for pr 1.2 was very bad move00:37
Shapeshifterwhy do people care so much about update release dates00:38
ptlbecause we want it to be soon00:38
ptlwe want to plan00:38
Shapeshifterwhat is the point. you're just making yourself more stressed out. chill.00:38

*** pablo2 has quit IRC00:39

SpeedEvilupdated 1.2 means extras is not stalled00:40
ptlShapeshifter: I am convinced otherwise, specially now that I'll be only able to update my apps cleanly after the PR1.2 migration00:41
SpeedEvilwhich is probably more important to me.00:41

anotnacdid nokia not offer senior community members opportunity to beta test this time like PR 1.100:46
nidObug 8043 is fixed, so im happy00:46
povbotBug https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8043 AVI Streaming  broken. Local playback works fine.00:46
Shapeshifterjust brings it back to my mind how utterly stupid releases are00:47
Shapeshifterrolling release ftw.00:47
*** trofi has quit IRC00:49
*** bleeter has quit IRC00:52
SpeedEvilrolling has its own issues00:53

*** bleeter has joined #maemo00:54
*** gomiam has quit IRC00:54
ShapeshifterSpeedEvil: main issue with rolling is that you're more or less supposed ot ideally update regularly. risk of breakage/annoyance increases the longer the intervals between updates, basically. but on a device like the n900 - in contrary to a server - you can practically update every day without any problem.00:55
SpeedEvilnot on all devices.00:55
*** Flyser has joined #maemo00:55
SpeedEvilI want to be able to schedule. At times downloading a new patch to blocks - say - could be expensive.00:56
*** Do-m-pie has quit IRC00:56
ptlthat's why we need to know PR release dates00:57
ShapeshifterSpeedEvil: updating once every two weeks would still be more then enough00:57
SpeedEvilalso - each config gets _lots_ less testing for issues than a release00:57
SpeedEvilwhich has its own costs if it leads to users contacting nokia/...00:57
*** C-S-B-N900 has joined #maemo00:57
ShapeshifterSpeedEvil: why would a whole config need testing. also, testing should be automated if the developers did some proper engineering beforehand00:57
*** straind has quit IRC00:57
SpeedEvilbecause sometimes seemingly unrelated stuff can bork the device experience.00:58
Shapeshifterlike that avi streaming bug. apparently worked in internal version in january. nidO needed to wait 3 months to profit.00:58
*** mzanetti has quit IRC00:59
ShapeshifterSpeedEvil: well I'm starting to troll here, but seemingly unrelated stuff should be unrelated. if it's still related, that relation should be obvious and documented. ;)01:00
*** noobmonk3y has quit IRC01:00
SpeedEvilbut it's not on a resource constrained device.01:00

SpeedEvilworking out if foo update touches bar's files is trivial.01:01
*** straind has joined #maemo01:01
*** lullos- has joined #maemo01:02
SpeedEvilworking out if foo update that changes it to call baz, not bar, and use more cpu when changing desktops causing sound to stutter for people making skype calls over PAN - say - is hard.01:03
*** dmj726_n9001 has joined #maemo01:03

*** elfoxx has quit IRC01:06
ShadowJKthe fmtx driver seems to support it01:06
ShapeshifterSpeedEvil: that may be true, but if it's a non-critical update (i.e. just about some video streaming, and not essential connectivity/battery-charging/bootloader/whatever) a package can be released after little testing, as protest will quickly arise and be documented by the users and the devs can react. in any case, it's much more agile. I'd say, more most things, except the core (bootloader and that), releasing updates when they're ...01:06
*** chenca has quit IRC01:06
Shapeshifter... ready is simply much more efficient and profitable for everyone.01:06
*** straind has quit IRC01:06
ShadowJKThough the chip allegedly also able to automatically choose free freuqencies, support for that doesn't seem to exist in the driver01:06
SpeedEvilrolling with a beta testers program would work01:07

*** mk8 has quit IRC01:43
ShadowJKKnowing apache and php setup in and out would probably help, i guess01:44
jacekowskimost likely - perl/python/bash or other kind of scripting01:44
rangeDeployment, non disruptive updates, troubleshooting basics. Maybe a scripting test. Depends on if someone in the hiring process has ever been at google et al :)01:44
rangeThose tend to ask the strange questions.01:45
jacekowskiwell01:46
DocScrutinizerjacekowski: DO NOT buy original N900 headset! It's crap, and you get a zillion better ones for less01:46

jacekowskiit seems they are windows based01:47
C-S-BYeah, I think they're an ms shop with some linux solutions01:47
jacekowskiand they say nothing about linux01:48
jacekowskiand it's hard to tell who you will be speaking to01:48
C-S-Bthey do mention it, but briefly.01:49
*** Jophish_n900 has quit IRC01:49
C-S-Bthey want bind and postfix knowledge.01:49
jacekowskiif you will end up with stupid recruitment bloke that knows fuck all about what company is doing and he's just comparing your answers to what he have prepared01:49
nidOC-S-B: bind is easy01:49
C-S-Band explicitly state linux01:49
nidOjust reading up, also01:49
C-S-Bi know bind enough.01:49
jacekowskinidO: don't underestimate it01:49
nidOI dont, i've been working with it for 10 years01:49
C-S-Bbut i know it can get deep01:50
jacekowskinidO: basic DNS setup is simple01:50
nidOC-S-B: which host?01:50
C-S-Bhttp://www.redtechnology.com/01:50
jacekowskinidO: it's more DNS system rather than bind - but still - i would expect people to know it01:50
*** Ryback_ has quit IRC01:51
nidOshame they use postfix though01:51
C-S-Bwhy?01:51
*** Ryback_ has joined #maemo01:52
nidOat least it's not qmail though I guess01:52
jacekowskiexim sucks01:52
jacekowskiand qmail isn't MTA01:52
jacekowskiqmail is a program pretending to be MTA01:52
nidOwell yeah it is, its just a dreadful one01:52
jacekowskinidO: it doesn't comply to standards01:52
nidOofc it doesnt, because it's dreadful.01:53
jacekowskiand that doesn't leave you with many alternatives01:53

jacekowskioh god01:53
jacekowskidon't even use that name01:53
*** Ikarus has quit IRC01:53

C-S-Bi think it might be easy since its win...01:54
*** noobmonk3y has quit IRC01:54
C-S-Bi know subnetting and networking01:54
nidOdepends what kind of knowledge they want and what you have01:54
jacekowskiC-S-B: really?01:54
rangeC-S-B: Normally they want to look if you can think outside the box a bit.01:54
jacekowskiC-S-B: what do you know about routing01:54
C-S-Betc, thats a usual thig they ask01:54
nidOcomplex iis/ad/.net management is more complicated than keeping an apache system running01:54
ptlhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm01:54
ptlthere IS wpasupplicant on easy-debian01:54
C-S-Bwell, room to learn.01:55
ptlcould I connect to a WPA2/LEAP AP using it?01:55
ptlbecause the N900 does not support LEAP natively01:55
C-S-Bjacekowski, how are you asking that.01:55
C-S-Bin what tone?01:55
nidOany idea what kind of level of infrastructure redtechnology have?01:56
jacekowskiin tone of making you aware that there is still lot to learn01:56
*** zap has quit IRC01:56
C-S-Bi know.01:56
jacekowskibut as nidO mentioned - gather knowledge about them01:57
jacekowskiso you can learn about what they use01:57
C-S-Bthats what ive been doing, i appreciate the hep guys.01:57
nidOthey seem to have a fairly substantial network of their own, so theyre probably going to want someone in a systems engineer role to know switches and routers pretty much in and out01:57

C-S-Band network admin01:58
jacekowskiC-S-B: emm, cisco switches and routers01:59
jacekowskieverything else tries to replicate cisco interface01:59
nidOI don't need to deal with backbone/border routers much as theyre handled by our colocation providers, our technical involvement starts at our switches in our racks01:59
nidOred seem to have their own peering and border routers so youll probably want to know ios pretty well01:59
C-S-Bi dont know cisco, but I have my gf's uncle who is high up there and can get me docs.01:59
C-S-Bive touched on ios in my last job02:00
C-S-Bthey dont require it in the job spec however, i think they are into training,02:00
nidOdepends what they want to recruit you for though really, whether they need someone adminning their networks or whether you're getting hired as a helpdesk monkey02:00
*** alecrim has quit IRC02:01
jacekowskinidO: everybody can get their own peering02:01

nidOits difficult to judge how to approach it without knowing the scale of the business and whos interviewing you though really - if it's another tech doing the interview, chances are that more than just asking you to rattle off facts and knowledge theyll be looking to see if you're sharp enough to approach problems you *dont* know the answer to logically to find/figure out a solution02:13

crashanddie_they asked him to explain,and he said that according to some old law, the official time measurement in France (where he was caught) was the second, and the official distance measurement was the meter. Hence, when the speed limit showed "130", he read it as "130 meters per second"04:54

crashanddie_ptl: the matter of fact, though, is that masochism is simply feeling pleasure things that most individuals associate with pain. One very good example is the fact that all humans are masochists when it comes to sex (as are dolphins). The body goes through quite a very, very horrible process when orgasming, yet we feel incredible pleasure.05:14

johnxjoga, have you checked into the thread? I seem to remember something about that being mentioned by the developer10:09
* man_in_ltop waves10:09
jogajohnx: no, I haven't checked yet10:09
tybolltcrashanddie_: seriously - you will make pie charts - right? :)10:09
man_in_ltopanyone know how to use gtk.FileChooserButton in pygtk? :)10:09
crashanddie_I mean, I computed it through an excel spreadsheet, I ran it as a single non-transferable vote, and as a full meek/scottish STV, and all the results were exactly the same10:09
crashanddie_tybollt: the charts are on tmo :P10:09
tybolltmeh :$10:10
johnxI think the batterygraph updates from one source (the most accurate one) and the UI uses multiple sources to "guess" at the battery percentage10:10
johnx(by the UI I mean Nokia's stuff)10:10
tybolltwell10:10
tybolltif you get sudden "jumps" when charging a battery10:10
crashanddie_tybollt: no, but it is an important point. It's been 3 elections where there was *no* difference between full SNTV, or any of the STVs (except for cambridge stv, but that always changes everything, and requires two voting sessions)10:11
tybolltand it is consistent throughout a series of charges -> you may have a dead cell in your battery10:11
crashanddie_so why do we bother with the STV if it doesn't change anything?10:11
*** VDVsx has quit IRC10:11
jogatybollt: I'm not sure if it's because a couple of days ago I used a nokia charger (with the small tip) with the adapter bundled with n900, and it didn't seem to supply enough power to the device because it shut down while recharging (and playing music). couldn't get it to boot for a while until I let it recharge for half an hour or so, I was worried it somehow damaged the battery but not sure if that's very probable10:12
*** hannesw_ has joined #maemo10:12
tybolltjoga: no10:13
*** guardian has quit IRC10:13
tybolltjoga: don't worry about it10:13
jogaI let it charge over the night with that same charger, and noted that the graph showed it recharging extremely slowly, like just 30% or so in the course of 7 hours10:13
tybolltjoga: however yes that can happen, that the battery drains although it is being charged10:13
*** rmoravcik has joined #maemo10:13
tybolltjoga: the charger is a charger only - not a PSU10:14
crashanddie_joga: also, please note that you need to "treat your battery well"10:14
crashanddie_joga: I have noticed that if you let your battery drain, the next charge will be "less powerful"10:14
jogaI try not to treat it badly ;)10:14
jogathat was the first time ever that it has drained so completely10:14
crashanddie_joga: however, if you charge it regularly before it drains completely, you get better milleage (at least I do)10:14
crashanddie_If I allow it to drain, I'll be lucky to have a day's use out of it. If I recharge it before it drains completely for 3 or 4 days, I'll get 2 days of use out of the battery10:15

crashanddie_dan2003: if you're doing it for a specific reason, and it was recommended by a good member on TMO, you should be fine. Sadly sometimes the rootfs can get completely full, which causes stuff to crash, and then when it attempts to boot it crashes again and again10:21
johnxdan2003, wait, are you saying you already have bootmenu installed?10:21

cos^what's the status of maemo development on 64-bit os  nowadays?13:58
tybolltSpeedEvil: most... epic... freudian slip.. evah...13:58
nidOtybollt - the lirc remotes can be used by rewriting them to be formatted correctly13:58
SpeedEvilnidO, the only way round is possibly using the camera.13:58
cos^last time i checked scratchbox didin't work very well on a 64bit distro13:58
lcukahh dneary i see13:58
nidOassuming there is actually a remote for the device you want and it has the right codes in them13:58
dneary_And you see where the extra 23 votes came from, 17 of them came from the eliminations & transfer of votes from hopbeat, zehjotkah and YoDude13:58

DocScrutinizerit means you not only can't modify the OS kernel that ships with milestone, it also means you even can't load a different OS (like e.g mer on maemo devices would do) - the bootloader refuses to load any kernel that's not signed by motorola18:23

DocScrutinizerShadowJK: (sorry for long paste)    At the beginning of charging process, the bq24150/1 starts a 32-minute timer (T32min) that can be stopped by any write-action performed by host through I2C interface. Once the 32-minute timer is stopped, a 32-second timer (T32sec) is automatically started. The 32-second timer can be reset by host using I2C interface. Writing "1" to22:37

ProteousI broke the litle tabs off of my charging cable so it slides in and out of my n900 easily22:44
ShadowJKN8x0 is more flexible in what power source it accepts for charging :)22:44
ds3half the time it doesn't charge from USB (at least the icon doesn't animate)... and if I have a valid USB host connected to it, it gets confused rebooting22:44
* ShadowJK should solder himself a charging cable for N900 :/22:44
DocScrutinizerArif_: black sticky tape ;-P22:44
otuboIt works perfectly when I use an app that requires GPS, but takes some time to get the signal. My idea is to start the GPS and let it on stand by, and when start the map (or whatever that needs it) the GPS is already on and synced with the satelittes22:45

C-S-B-N900nidO: no, im not fixed on a hosting job, but it would be a good direction for me.23:24
nidOC-S-B-N900: one quick example: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=93771223:24

C-S-B-N900nidO: cheers , what kind of wage would you think this would be?23:26
noobmonk3yand ukhost4u deserved to be burned23:26
noobmonk3yalmost as bad as fasthosts23:26
nidOin terms of work-from-home purely tech support monkey salaries, you could be looking at anywhere from £13,000 - £25,000 depending on the level of work you're being recruited for23:27
*** javispedro has joined #maemo23:27
nidOif it's a bigger host looking for a pure sysadmin, maybe £18-20 upto perhaps 35k23:27
C-S-B-N900thats quite low,23:27
C-S-B-N900but then you do get to work at home. :)23:28
nidOtech support salaries do generally start low and do remember it's usually working from home, but if you're working for a bigger firm the wage will generally go up pretty steeply if you know your shit23:28
nidOmost hosting outfits will recruit the majority of tech staff for level1 support, but if you know what you're doing you can get bumped up to level2 or 3 in not much time23:29
* noobmonk3y can tell the difference between dog and cat crap, now thats knowing shit23:29

nidOtech support for a smaller firm as a salaried position is a pretty cushy job at the end of the day though even if the wage isnt that great23:30
C-S-BnidO, just dropping an email to jobs@ukhost4u.com, they are down the road from me.23:31
C-S-Bmaindenhead,23:31
C-S-B:)23:31
nidOhandy. never used them myself, though obviously noobmonk3y's opinion of them's pretty low, maybe you can work to change that :p23:32
noobmonk3yfasthosts i've taken through court23:32
nidOtheyre definitely a low-price bulk host though, so quality's always going to suffer23:32
noobmonk3yreally do not touch23:32
noobmonk3yukhosts at least refunded when the fecked up......23:32
nidOfasthosts give the industry a bad name.23:32
nidOas do 1and123:32
noobmonk3yyeah.......23:33

dottedmag4-th small size seem to form standard 80x25 or something similar.23:40

C-S-B-N900i know, but without x all youd have is cli.23:45

C-S-B-N900nidO: im worried that ill have a bump with getting into the hosting as i dont have experience in it.23:46
noobmonk3yC-S-B-N900, naaaa, youll be fine23:46
noobmonk3yjust gotta accept an introduction job23:46
noobmonk3yhelpdesking usually23:46
dottedmagWell, if kernel's evdev for built-in keyboard is good enough, it should be half-decent vt23:47
nidOwell, most hosts will generally consider extensive knowledge of the control suite they use a plus, but certainly the bigger hosts will take people without it and train you up, as long as you have good general admin knowledge23:47
nidOand can figure your way round problems23:47
noobmonk3y;)23:47
ShadowJKdottedmag, dunno if there's anything in the kernel by default to render text to screen :)23:47
dottedmaggah, no /proc/config.gz23:47
C-S-B-N900i can, but i find my cv doesn't reflect my abilities. i know more than ive done commercially.23:47
nidOwell, its a case of communicating that to your employer23:48
C-S-B-N900well, i hope they get back to me. :)23:48
nidOjust as a point, when I got the job im in now, I had no IT-related qualifications whatsoever and no previous experience actually working in the IT sector23:48
dottedmagShadowJK: usually CONFIG_VT and CONFIG_CONSOLE are left enabled. And there is /dev/fb*, so it should work out-of-box23:49
C-S-B-N900but i dont know cpanel etc, but doesn't mean i cant learn it when it comes to it.23:49
nidOI got the job based purely on the knowledge I told them I had, and my ability to demonstrate that during the interview23:49
ShadowJKdottedmag, well there's probably a reason the maemo early init scripts use a program to put text on screen :)23:49
C-S-B-N900awesome nidO23:49
C-S-B-N900what did you have to demonstrate out of interest23:50
C-S-B-N900at least i am fluent in english.23:50
nidOcpanel along with most suites is easy to pick up for a pure basic helpdesk role though, obviously the full ins and outs of adminning it are incredibly complex but a larger host will essentially just need you to be able to use it, and theyll teach you that23:50
nidOas long as you're a fairly quick study23:51
noobmonk3yhmmmmmmm menuBar.addSeparator() doesnt seem to work in pyqt.......23:51
C-S-B-N900nidO: i rule at self learning.23:51
*** trofi has quit IRC23:51

*** lizardo has quit IRC23:51
nidOif you come across a host that uses h-sphere and wants you to be able to administer it23:51
*** carloscesa has quit IRC23:51
nidOjust walk away.23:51
C-S-B-N900why?23:52
nidOh-sphere is absolutely atrociously bad software, it's dreadful, and it's an absolute nightmare to administer23:52
C-S-B-N900also, do you have a work phone or do you use your own, as well as laptop etc.23:52
dottedmagC-S-B-N900: once I developed Plesk migration tools, and usual task was "get some hosting panel, figure out it database structure and data placement, write script to convert everything to Plesk formats". Couple of weeks for every control panel. Once you know how does Apache / Postfix / etc work, it's quite easy.23:52
nidOthankfully for all those reasons, not a great deal of hosts use it.23:52
nidOmy work's entirely online - i've made maybe 5-10 work-related phone calls in almost 7 years23:53
