frals | not that ive ever had that happen in actual use | 00:16 |
ds3 | how do I enable experimental mode? | 00:16 |
frals | get 0.5.4 and just open configuration | 00:17 |
ds3 | where do I get 0.5.4? I have 0.5.3 but that's downloaded via the app mgr | 00:17 |
frals | uh i uploaded it yesterday | 00:17 |

*** bleeter has joined #maemo | 00:54 | |
*** gomiam has quit IRC | 00:54 | |
Shapeshifter | SpeedEvil: 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 |
SpeedEvil | not on all devices. | 00:55 |
*** Flyser has joined #maemo | 00:55 | |
SpeedEvil | I 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 IRC | 00:56 | |
ptl | that's why we need to know PR release dates | 00:57 |
Shapeshifter | SpeedEvil: updating once every two weeks would still be more then enough | 00:57 |
SpeedEvil | also - each config gets _lots_ less testing for issues than a release | 00:57 |
SpeedEvil | which has its own costs if it leads to users contacting nokia/... | 00:57 |
*** C-S-B-N900 has joined #maemo | 00:57 | |
Shapeshifter | SpeedEvil: why would a whole config need testing. also, testing should be automated if the developers did some proper engineering beforehand | 00:57 |
*** straind has quit IRC | 00:57 | |
SpeedEvil | because sometimes seemingly unrelated stuff can bork the device experience. | 00:58 |

*** mzanetti has quit IRC | 00:59 | |

ShadowJK | the fmtx driver seems to support it | 01:06 |
Shapeshifter | SpeedEvil: 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 IRC | 01:06 | |
Shapeshifter | ... ready is simply much more efficient and profitable for everyone. | 01:06 |

jacekowski | C-S-B: what do you know about routing | 01:54 |
C-S-B | etc, thats a usual thig they ask | 01:54 |

jacekowski | C-S-B: emm, cisco switches and routers | 01:59 |
jacekowski | everything else tries to replicate cisco interface | 01:59 |
nidO | I 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 racks | 01:59 |
nidO | red seem to have their own peering and border routers so youll probably want to know ios pretty well | 01:59 |
C-S-B | i dont know cisco, but I have my gf's uncle who is high up there and can get me docs. | 01:59 |
C-S-B | ive touched on ios in my last job | 02:00 |
C-S-B | they dont require it in the job spec however, i think they are into training, | 02:00 |

lcuk | DocScrutinizer, which device are you on about | 02:48 |
lcuk | ive sene you talking last day or so | 02:48 |

lcuk | cool, any particular goal? from google its the battery board | 02:50 |
DocScrutinizer | bq24150 is N900's battery charger chip | 02:50 |
*** zs_ has joined #maemo | 02:51 | |

*** dvoid_ has quit IRC | 02:52 | |
lcuk | :) sounds like a cool thing to study | 02:52 |
DocScrutinizer | It sounds to me like a cool thing to actually be able and use N900 as USB host, plug in memsticks, cameras, IR-dongles, you name it | 02:54 |
*** luizirber has quit IRC | 02:54 | |
*** njsf_ has quit IRC | 02:54 | |
lcuk | DocScrutinizer, if it were in host mode, that would also allow 2 n900s to connect to each other wouldnt it? or can it do that now (to setup network between them) | 02:55 |

ptl | I mean, the rotation | 04:29 |
ptl | cehteh: it is | 04:29 |
cehteh | ptl: the accelerometer cant track rotation and its *by* far not sensible enouhg for such | 04:29 |
* cehteh reisntalls stellarium | 04:30 | |
ptl | cehteh: nevertheless, I read it somewhere | 04:30 |
cehteh | yes thats bullshit | 04:30 |
cehteh | if the camera would be sensible enough you could try to lock it on a start (or some other background feature) | 04:31 |
cehteh | well motion tracking cries for SDP | 04:31 |

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 |

Ken-Young | njsf, When I read the specs for the N900 I thought to myself *finally* a device to what Little Snow Fairy Sugar videos on. | 05:09 |
calamari | goes the n900 gps still work without reception? | 05:09 |
njsf_ | They would integrate better with those apps showing in HAM, but a special header that would launch the proper Ovi store page for payment if needed | 05:09 |
calamari | sorry.. cell reception | 05:09 |
ml-mobile | Ken-Young: N900 can play DVD quality video no problem | 05:09 |
ptl | crashanddie_: you seem stressed! | 05:10 |
*** jgoss has joined #maemo | 05:10 | |
njsf_ | calamari: the GPS yes, but Ovi needs it. Mapper works ok if you already have the maps cached... | 05:12 |
njsf_ | Ovi == Ovi Maps | 05:12 |

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 |

njsf_ | pain/pleasure, it is all just eletro-chemical stimulation... | 05:16 |
*** Flanbix has quit IRC | 05:16 | |
crashanddie_ | you secrete extreme levels of pheromones, extreme levels of adrenaline, endorphine and whatnot, your heart rate accelerates to higher levels than most top sportsmen would feel comfortable with, your blood vesels constrict and your osat levels plumet and rise chaotically every second due to incoherent breathing | 05:16 |
crashanddie_ | Most of these usually indicate impending death. Not for nothing that philosophers during the 17th and 18th century called orgasm "La petite mort" (small death) | 05:17 |
ptl | that's very instructive, but I was just making a pun. | 05:17 |
crashanddie_ | I know, I was just being overly pedantic :) | 05:18 |
*** C-S-B has joined #maemo | 05:19 | |
calamari | is this true? " No call logs/ call timers / missed calls / No message waiting indicator. " | 05:19 |
ptl | I truly hope death is a giant orgasm, since orgasm is a small death. | 05:20 |
ptl | because the time will come for me someday | 05:20 |
ptl | ok, this is another pun. Don't kick me, please. | 05:21 |

bullet` | unusual talk | 05:30 |
bullet` | seems like ppl r really waiting for 1.2 :p | 05:30 |
Ken-Young | Yup. I don't undestand why they can't give a release date. | 05:30 |
*** C-S-B has quit IRC | 05:31 | |
ml-mobile | because release dates can slip | 05:32 |
Ken-Young | ml-mobile, Sure. But they don't always. | 05:33 |
Ken-Young | Even if they said "Definately not before June" that would be nice to know. | 05:34 |
ml-mobile | not always, but being noncomittal about a release date is easier than missing one and having the unwashed masses come after you | 05:34 |
calamari | btw has there been any mention of a successor to the n900? | 05:36 |
rm_you | calamari: way back when at the summit they mentioned the next hardware revision was planned to have multitouch... no NEW news tho AFAIK | 05:38 |
Ken-Young | calamari, If they won't tell us when the next firmware release will happen, imagine how secretive they are about upcoming devices. | 05:39 |

*** C-S-B has quit IRC | 06:17 | |
crashanddie_ | calamari: EOL not quite yet, but another Maemo/MeeGo device is definitely possible. | 06:18 |
DocScrutinizer | even if they roll out N900++ tomorrow, this by no means is EOL for N900. Especially since next device is probably without kbd and with capacitive touchscreen. A *lot* of people will hate it and go for a N900 even if it were slower and more expensive than the successor | 06:19 |

MiXu- | tybollt: I haven't seen a live LTE network yet, but there are wimax networks. | 09:18 |
tybollt | wimax is what, qualcom and intel? :) | 09:18 |
tybollt | MiXu-: LTE is live in Stockholm. | 09:19 |
MiXu- | Ah, alright. | 09:19 |
lucent | hey, guys, what I'm saying is I have access to WiMax and nobody wants it here where I live - it is too expensive and slow | 09:19 |
tybollt | MiXu-: Granted there are only USB dongles, no phones - yet | 09:19 |
tybollt | yes | 09:19 |
tybollt | wimax is an intel tech - the other players don't care about it | 09:19 |
tybollt | -> high prices | 09:19 |
Stskeeps | well, n810w :P | 09:19 |
MiXu- | I don't care either. I'm just pointing out that wimax has more coverage at the moment than LTE. | 09:20 |
tybollt | LTE will be made by nokia/siemens, ericsson etc etc so logic says it should be more competetive price wise | 09:20 |

joga | hmm...I wonder if this is some bug with batterygraph or if it's supposed to be like this...I've been recharging for about 1.5 hours now and the percentage/charge in the graph is a horizontal line, no progress is being made according to it | 10:07 |
joga | if I do lshal|grep battery it also shows 11% | 10:07 |
*** villemv has quit IRC | 10:08 | |

VDVsx | crashanddie_, I like it :D sorry for the rest of the candidates, but my favorite 'set' was chosen ;) | 10:08 |
crashanddie_ | It's amazing to see how little the transferable vote changes in the end | 10:08 |
*** andre900 has joined #maemo | 10:08 | |
joga | and now, suddenly that I refreshed the graph again a few times, it immediately jumped to 57% | 10:09 |
joga | now, why is that... | 10:09 |
*** villemv has joined #maemo | 10:09 | |
johnx | joga, have you checked into the thread? I seem to remember something about that being mentioned by the developer | 10:09 |
* man_in_ltop waves | 10:09 | |
joga | johnx: no, I haven't checked yet | 10:09 |
tybollt | crashanddie_: seriously - you will make pie charts - right? :) | 10:09 |
man_in_ltop | anyone 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 same | 10:09 |
crashanddie_ | tybollt: the charts are on tmo :P | 10:09 |
tybollt | meh :$ | 10:10 |
johnx | I think the batterygraph updates from one source (the most accurate one) and the UI uses multiple sources to "guess" at the battery percentage | 10:10 |
johnx | (by the UI I mean Nokia's stuff) | 10:10 |
tybollt | well | 10:10 |
tybollt | if you get sudden "jumps" when charging a battery | 10:10 |
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 |
tybollt | and it is consistent throughout a series of charges -> you may have a dead cell in your battery | 10:11 |
crashanddie_ | so why do we bother with the STV if it doesn't change anything? | 10:11 |
*** VDVsx has quit IRC | 10:11 | |
joga | tybollt: 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 probable | 10:12 |

*** guardian has quit IRC | 10:13 | |
tybollt | joga: don't worry about it | 10:13 |
joga | I 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 hours | 10:13 |
tybollt | joga: however yes that can happen, that the battery drains although it is being charged | 10:13 |
*** rmoravcik has joined #maemo | 10:13 | |
tybollt | joga: the charger is a charger only - not a PSU | 10:14 |
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 |
joga | I try not to treat it badly ;) | 10:14 |
joga | that was the first time ever that it has drained so completely | 10:14 |
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 battery | 10:15 |

dan2003 | interesting how rthe alarm clock still works and has a ui - i guess thats a seperarte very small fw /(initramfs) ui and sounds all the same as when main ui is running | 10:30 |
Stskeeps | dan2003: as it in waking up the device? | 10:31 |
Stskeeps | that's actually full X :P | 10:31 |
dan2003 | yes, from fully poered off | 10:31 |
johnx | dan2003, can you get the N900 to be a USB client while in that mode? | 10:31 |
dan2003 | but it wont bootnormally, just keeps rebooting | 10:31 |
dan2003 | i will check | 10:31 |

cehteh | rather, how do make it bulltet proof | 10:34 |
cehteh | adding a small boot script which would restore it when the first boot fails | 10:34 |
johnx | dan2003, I'm trying to think of some way you could get the device to react to a file copied onto that partition | 10:34 |
*** furunk3l has joined #maemo | 10:34 | |
johnx | cehteh, good thought. if I were you, I'd install bootmenu :) | 10:35 |
cehteh | what does that do? | 10:35 |
dan2003 | just someway to dsiable the watchdog would resolve the issue | 10:35 |
* johnx wonders if that can still be disable by the flasher | 10:35 | |
dan2003 | the white light that comes up saying a reboot is cocuringmust be watchdog realtes - it comes on , but i can see the desktop continueung to load as for a short while after the white light is on | 10:36 |
cehteh | johnx: what does bootmenu offer? | 10:36 |

johnx | cehteh, emergency telnetd | 10:36 |
cehteh | you have a china clone n900? :) | 10:36 |
joga | hmm...ok, the battery thing seems to be because apparently charge is not updated while charging (anymore??), if I do lshal|grep charge_level the value only updates a few seconds after I've disconnected the cord | 10:36 |

joga | weird anyway...if I scroll back the batterygraph display to the point where the older version was in use, I see smooth slopes when charging, which would indicate that the charge state *does* get updated unless it has just interpolated it somehow, but not anymore | 10:41 |

Wolfie | how freaky was this... my N900 was fully charged yesterday as I left the workplace. Now as I came back to work this morning, it beeped of low battery | 10:49 |
Stskeeps | let it charge when you charge (sleep) | 10:50 |
Stskeeps | :P | 10:50 |
Wolfie | and only last weekend I had the phone survive a three-day weekend without recharging | 10:50 |

Wolfie | Yesterday, when i charged the phone via USB, the charging LED did blink weirdly slow... | 10:51 |
* johnx brought USB -> micro-A cable to work | 10:52 | |
Wolfie | i'm ready to write this off as a one-off oddity, but thought to ask here if someone else had experienced such fluctiations | 10:52 |
johnx | I think most people are pretty used to getting a work-day of use or so | 10:52 |
johnx | also: keep in mind that running it flat repeatedly will reduce the overall battery lifetime | 10:53 |
Wolfie | johnx: are you sure? isn't that NiCD-batteries? isn't the n900 battery a li-ion, meaning it likes to be drained on each cycle, and constantly keeping it in charge will break it easier? | 10:54 |

*** vzq_ has joined #maemo | 10:57 | |

cehteh | create a /usr/sharetest and /usr/sharetest.bak .. and it swaped it in on reboot | 10:58 |
*** NishanthMenon has quit IRC | 10:58 | |
Wolfie | tybollt: so, li-ion simply doesn't care, it just don't like cycles in general? | 10:58 |
johnx | tybollt, where can I purchase these li-cd batteries you speak of? :) | 10:58 |
tybollt | Wolfie: li-cd develops "memory" if it is constantly not discharged (that is why licd chargers often comes w/ a "discharge" function). | 10:58 |

johnx | li-ions and li-polymers don't being deep cycled all the time. only exception is (AFAIR) it's best to store them at 40% of you're planning to not use them for loooong periods of time. They don't have a good shelf life anyways though so it's best to just buy new though | 11:02 |

*** sergio has joined #maemo | 11:03 | |
Wolfie | johnx: duly noted | 11:03 |

tybollt | pocket-tjernobyl - today - half price | 11:05 |
*** bidossessi has quit IRC | 11:05 | |
johnx | maybe store a timestamp and use that to guess whether it runs twice at boot or once on shutdown, once at boot? | 11:05 |
cehteh | normally not | 11:05 |
johnx | though I can tell you that lots of stuff in /usr/share is probably needed before /opt is mounted, such as icons and theme pixmaps | 11:06 |
cehteh | i just double the code that i requires two restarts to activate | 11:06 |
cehteh | ah moment | 11:06 |
cehteh | i am stupid .. rcS does the mounting | 11:07 |
cehteh | i put it on /home/share not opt | 11:07 |

crashanddie | noobmonk3y: indeed | 12:17 |
dneary_ | Ah - Crash Anddie did provisional results | 12:17 |
dneary_ | crashanddie, Did you find my "how to generate election results" docs OK? | 12:17 |
crashanddie | dneary_: didn't use them | 12:17 |
dneary_ | Awww... | 12:17 |
Stskeeps | results are same anyway? | 12:18 |
crashanddie | dneary_: initially just went through the results with an excel spreadsheet (where those graphs come from), then used OpenVST, but I used the wrong algorithm -- all of the results are the same though | 12:18 |
dneary_ | Let's hope so... | 12:18 |
Stskeeps | (and what are the url for those?) | 12:18 |
dneary_ | Same on first count... | 12:18 |

crashanddie | luckily they all give the same results | 12:21 |
noobmonk3y | :D | 12:22 |
Stskeeps | looks like a good council this time around | 12:23 |
dneary_ | crashanddie, Yup, fractional's what we use, because the results are reproducible | 12:23 |
dneary_ | Same result every time | 12:23 |
* Jaffa waits for dneary's official results before modifying his signature ;-) | 12:24 | |

dneary_ | RST38h, What's SCART again? | 12:27 |
dneary_ | Ah | 12:28 |
crashanddie | haha, pre-emptive translation | 12:28 |
dneary_ | JaviSPedro got elected ahead of andy80 on tmo transfers, basically | 12:28 |
RST38h | Good | 12:28 |
RST38h | Not that it is going to change anything though... | 12:28 |
dneary_ | yodude, zehjotkah, hopbeat | 12:28 |
dneary_ | +7, +4, +5 for javispedro, +2, +3, +3 for andy80 | 12:29 |
dneary_ | Stretched his lead from 8 in round 4 to 17 in round 8 | 12:30 |
dneary_ | Well, I find stuff like that interesting & useful | 12:30 |
RST38h | Only useful if the council does something useful. | 12:31 |

tbf | Khertan: signed zero comes from IEEE 754 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/−0_(number) | 13:02 |
tbf | Khertan: but yes, proper implementations of IEEE 754 shall treat +0 as equal to -0 | 13:02 |
marmoute | as tbf point it should be stored in float to get signed zéro. | 13:02 |
Khertan | tbf: but as they didn't follow everythings else of ieee 754 ... why just this part :) | 13:03 |
marmoute | and most processors an IEE754 capable now | 13:03 |

mece | it doesn't have xcursorgen, but I guess if I generate a cursor in debian I can copy it to the phone.. | 13:09 |
tbf | mece: it's a regular xorg server. you just have to show a cursor. check the browser for instance. | 13:10 |
mece | tbf, I meant on the desktop, not in a particular program. Anyway the default cursors are all symlinked to a transparent cursor it seems. | 13:11 |

noobmonk3y | yay MarcusM | 13:53 |

Arif_ | lol | 13:54 |
FredrIQ | i didn't charge before first run. :3 | 13:54 |
tybollt | Nitial: Huh? | 13:55 |
dneary_ | So the tmo pary got Texrat and JaviSPedro elected, while the ml party got Jaffa, GA and Attila elected | 13:55 |
rmrfchik | Nitial: the right sentence is "wasted my money to apple" period. | 13:55 |
dneary_ | (that's an unfair categorisation but hey...) | 13:55 |
rmrfchik | despite "remote/whatever" | 13:55 |
Arif_ | someone get QtIrrecco to work | 13:55 |
Arif_ | :P | 13:55 |
lcuk | dneary_, how do you know which groups elected who? | 13:55 |
MiXu- | Arif_: Amen | 13:55 |
nidO | qtirreco works fine | 13:56 |
nidO | just most of the remotes are borked | 13:56 |
*** dotblank has quit IRC | 13:56 | |
nidO | record working ones and theyll run with it fine | 13:56 |
Arif_ | then tell me how to get proper remotes for a TechnoTrend S2-3200 | 13:56 |
nidO | get an ir rx, record the codes, and write the config file | 13:56 |
Arif_ | get a whatnow? | 13:56 |
dneary_ | And you could identify tmo candidates as Texrat, JaviSPedro, zehjotkah, YoDude and hopbeat, and ml candidates as Jaffa, GA, Attila77, andy80 and andrewfblack | 13:56 |
nidO | infrared receiver | 13:56 |
*** bidossessi has quit IRC | 13:56 | |
X-Fade | irreco works fine, although the ir power is so limited you need to be very close and aim rather precise. | 13:56 |
SpeedEvil | IR ecieveer. | 13:56 |
dneary_ | lcuk, You look at where the transfers went | 13:57 |
MiXu- | nidO: N900 doesn't have a receiver? O_o | 13:57 |
nidO | no | 13:57 |
Arif_ | hmm | 13:57 |
FredrIQ | the first thing i downloaded was xchat. :P | 13:57 |
dneary_ | Eg: look at how many 1st preference votes JaviSPedro got: 32.00 | 13:57 |
SpeedEvil | where is the xmitter? Next to the shitter button? | 13:57 |
MiXu- | Oh O_o | 13:57 |
tybollt | nidO: that's an awfull lot of work... lirc is huge it should have all the remotes needed I don't see what qtirreco can fail there :-| | 13:57 |
*** akeripper has joined #maemo | 13:57 | |
nidO | well. I saw speculation a while back that there is actually a receiver in there | 13:57 |
MarcusM | how do i update this beast? :P the firmware | 13:57 |
nidO | but just no software for it | 13:57 |
SpeedEvil | nidO, there is not | 13:57 |
dneary_ | Then you look at how many he ended up with in the decisive round (round 8 for him): 55.7 | 13:58 |
*** heu has joined #maemo | 13:58 | |
*** bidossessi has joined #maemo | 13:58 | |
cos^ | what's the status of maemo development on 64-bit os nowadays? | 13:58 |
tybollt | SpeedEvil: most... epic... freudian slip.. evah... | 13:58 |
nidO | tybollt - the lirc remotes can be used by rewriting them to be formatted correctly | 13:58 |
SpeedEvil | nidO, 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 distro | 13:58 |
lcuk | ahh dneary i see | 13:58 |
nidO | assuming there is actually a remote for the device you want and it has the right codes in them | 13:58 |
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 YoDude | 13:58 |
SpeedEvil | oops | 13:58 |
tybollt | nidO: \o/ I don't want to freaking rewrite anything, grrr | 13:58 |
X-Fade | Buy a $2 lirc device and record codes on your PC :) | 13:59 |
*** VDVsx_N900 has joined #maemo | 13:59 | |
dneary_ | Do the same for Attila, you'll see that he didn't do well compared to JaviSP in the transfers of those candidates, but did a lot better in the distribution of Javva & Texrat's surplus, and in the elimination of andrewfblack | 13:59 |
FredrIQ | marcusm, go to program manager, click upgrade | 13:59 |
MarcusM | FredrIQ: And that updates it? Perfect, thanks! | 13:59 |
dneary_ | (he went from 29 1st pref votes to 74 in round 8) | 13:59 |
FredrIQ | but it will discover it self after ½h | 14:00 |
MiXu- | Ok, so the way I see it, QtIrreco just needs to support lirc config files, right? | 14:00 |
X-Fade | MiXu-: it does? | 14:00 |
*** andrei1089 has quit IRC | 14:00 | |
MiXu- | What was the talk about rewriting configs? | 14:00 |
dneary_ | And those extra 45 votes came from texrat (+7), Jaffa (+4), andrewfblack (+9) and hopbeat (+17) | 14:01 |
nidO | it does, but a sizeable portion of them dont work properly without adjusting their names and a bit of the formatting. I dont know whwether thats a problem with the configs, or with qtirreco | 14:01 |
ahmedammar | hello all, I have some questions regarding xserver-xorg-video-fbdev_0.4.0 in maemo5 sources | 14:01 |
dneary_ | Oh - interesting | 14:01 |
MiXu- | ah, got it. | 14:01 |
dneary_ | Is hopbeat a member of the Developer's Party, with Attila, andrewfblack & andy80, perhaps? | 14:01 |

X-Fade | ahmedammar: My guess is that that is from SGX drivers. | 14:04 |
Jaffa | dneary_: I'd categorise neither hopbeat nor andrewfblack as developers really | 14:05 |
Jaffa | dneary_: Although I could be doing them a disservice. | 14:05 |
ahmedammar | X-Fade, great, but which version of these drivers are being used? | 14:05 |
X-Fade | ahmedammar: Depends on the release. | 14:05 |
dneary_ | Jaffa, When trying to identify "constituencies", it's best to figure out whose supporters also voted for other candidates (1 2 or 2 1) | 14:05 |

Stskeeps | ahmedammar: right | 14:21 |
Jaffa | dneary_: Indeed | 14:21 |
Stskeeps | ahmedammar: the key is in building the xserver-xorg-video-fbdev against the sgx | 14:21 |
ahmedammar | Stskeeps, indeed, and i'm so close. | 14:21 |
Stskeeps | ahmedammar: what errors are you getting? | 14:21 |
ahmedammar | Stskeeps, i'll show you, but the lack of EURASIA_TAG_STRIDE_* definitions was my first hit | 14:22 |
Stskeeps | ahmedammar: that's kinda awkward, is that in the fbdev source? | 14:22 |
ahmedammar | Stskeeps, if you have a maemo sdk installed can you search for those defines? | 14:22 |

X-Fade | nidO: Akamai's edge thingie [tm] | 16:37 |
noobmonk3y | TheOne: on a brand new device? | 16:37 |
TheOne | i read the documentation and if i stay some seconds the light turns off - one touch, light turns on again and the browser is closed | 16:37 |
MarcusM | when im going to https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/apps/ it says that the connection is untrusted. could that be an issue with my n900 as well? | 16:37 |
nidO | having that second cname through edgesuite.net does seem to add pointless complexity to the lookup | 16:37 |
TheOne | noobmonk3y: yes/no - i buy it on ebay, but it is not used | 16:38 |
noobmonk3y | ok that really doesnt sound good.... sounds like you need to reflash and see if that helps TheOne (Firmware and emmc) - http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware | 16:38 |
TheOne | oh my good | 16:39 |
noobmonk3y | MarcusM: naaaa - thats normal | 16:39 |
TheOne | god ^^ | 16:39 |
MarcusM | noobmonk3y: Damn, | 16:39 |
noobmonk3y | TheOne: flashing will be fine, if it is new, took me about 10 mins in total | 16:39 |

MarcusM | MarcusM: Fair enough. | 16:39 |
noobmonk3y | MarcusM: same here, sure that is the right page? | 16:41 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: What do you expect to get from downloads.maemo.nokia.com btw? :) | 16:41 |
MarcusM | noobmonk3y: Can you update yourself? | 16:41 |
noobmonk3y | update myself? lol | 16:41 |
MarcusM | X-Fade: Trying to figure out the reason it's timing out. | 16:41 |
* noobmonk3y is not firmware last time i checked | 16:41 | |
X-Fade | MarcusM: Yes, but apart from that? | 16:41 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: Why are you wasting your time with hitting refresh? :) | 16:41 |
noobmonk3y | MarcusM: thats not a timeout, but a squiffy address isnt it? | 16:41 |
MarcusM | X-Fade: Check the repositories. :P | 16:41 |
noobmonk3y | let x-fade fix it i'd say :) | 16:42 |
MarcusM | FIX IT NOW :O | 16:42 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: All software of interest is not there? | 16:42 |
noobmonk3y | lols | 16:42 |
MarcusM | X-Fade: Unfortunately, my updater won't finish as 3 catalogues fail out of 4. | 16:42 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: Just disable them then? | 16:42 |
MarcusM | X-Fade: Did so, and that resulted in no updates at all. And that can't be right, because I just bought it. | 16:43 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: No? | 16:43 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: That is expected behavoir? | 16:43 |
X-Fade | No app updates. | 16:43 |

MarcusM | X-Fade: What about firm | 16:43 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: Just flash the most recent? | 16:43 |
nidO | he'd likely get a firmware update or two | 16:43 |
X-Fade | Will give you a better rootfs anyway. | 16:44 |
MarcusM | X-Fade: that could be a solution, indeed, but as nid0 says, I should have a firmware update or 2 | 16:44 |
Stskeeps | but yeah, just flash to a new release | 16:44 |
Stskeeps | saner | 16:44 |

TheOne | noobmonk3y: i try to flash the device later when the battery is fully charged | 16:49 |
MarcusM | Wait. So by flashing the n900 with the newest "flasher-tool", it gets updated? or do I need some kind of image? | 16:49 |
TheOne | but it sounds painless | 16:49 |
Stskeeps | you need an image from tablets-dev.nokia.com | 16:49 |
TheOne | i hope it is ^^ | 16:49 |
noobmonk3y | :D good idea ;) - i did it on about 70% was fine for me | 16:49 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: Download the windows one from nokia.com | 16:49 |
noobmonk3y | MarcusM: you need the image - http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware | 16:50 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: That is a gui one one can use without any knowledge or opportunity to mess things up. | 16:50 |
MarcusM | Ah ye, needed the firmware image | 16:50 |
noobmonk3y | and that would give you the latest firmware ;) | 16:50 |
MarcusM | X-Fade: I enjoy opportunities :( | 16:50 |
X-Fade | MarcusM: Then read the page an follow instructions. | 16:50 |
MarcusM | :P | 16:51 |
noobmonk3y | worst comes to the worst, you will need to reflash again, might as well learn now ;) | 16:51 |
noobmonk3y | (when you have less on your device ;)) | 16:51 |
MarcusM | when new firmware I guess? | 16:51 |
noobmonk3y | erm, well no, technically you can update OTA - worked fine for me before | 16:51 |

noobmonk3y | MarcusM: i think there is a way to download the maps so it c an be used offline with gps, not tried tho | 17:20 |
MarcusM | thing is I get an unknown error when tyring to install | 17:20 |

hrw | DrGrov: I am not familiar with android so cannot answer | 18:14 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer, when did you buy yours? | 18:14 |
DrGrov | hrw: ah, i got a bit scared there but i see it has android so that makes me puke. | 18:14 |
hrw | DrGrov: maemo5 is far from being perfect | 18:15 |
DrGrov | MohammadAG_: what did you think about the PR 1.2 SDK? | 18:15 |
hrw | DrGrov: calendar suxx for example | 18:15 |
DrGrov | hrw: yeah, it's not perfect. i give you that. but android then again... need to have a google account get apps etc. | 18:15 |
DrGrov | hrw: not my cup of tea so to speak. | 18:15 |
MohammadAG_ | DrGrov, crap, but for a reason, it was updated before my N900 was and i can't build anything right | 18:16 |
DrGrov | hrw: the calendar is actually not too bad though. yes, it suxx but not too bad. | 18:16 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: preorder at nokia webshop. came with the very first batch officially shipped | 18:16 |
hrw | DrGrov: please... | 18:16 |
MohammadAG_ | other than that, it's ok, nothing major | 18:16 |
MohammadAG_ | couldn't find the live wallpapers | 18:16 |
hrw | DrGrov: alarm times are shown wrong, no edit of repeatable events, crappy month view.... want more examples? | 18:16 |

MohammadAG_ | DrGrov, nope, just some fixes, new features (not a lot) and a makeover | 18:17 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer, got mine end of nov. | 18:17 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer, preorder too. | 18:17 |
DrGrov | hrw: oh, too bad :( actually i am happy with the calendar in the n900. i just need a few small things with the calendar. nothing major. | 18:17 |
hrw | DrGrov: I have events which needs editing but I prefer to not do that because calendar will destroy repeating | 18:17 |
hrw | DrGrov: I have events which repeat on first Tuesday of month | 18:18 |
DrGrov | MohammadAG_: oh, makeover in a positive manner? | 18:18 |
hrw | DrGrov: n900 calendar destroys them on edit | 18:18 |
DrGrov | hrw: oh, shit... i actually don't do calendar shit so much. just a few here and a few there... | 18:18 |
MohammadAG_ | DrGrov, yeah, a UI makeover, menu, browser etc... | 18:18 |
DocScrutinizer | DrGrov: from what I gather, milestone has a cryptographic locked bootloader and kernel. don't-touch-me-FOSS | 18:18 |
MohammadAG_ | i like app manager, seems to be faster in PR1.2, might actually use it | 18:19 |
DrGrov | MohammadAG_: oh, that is not too bad then. eagerly awaiting the PR 1.2. oh, that is even better news that the app manager i faster. i do like the app manager for all my needs. | 18:19 |

DrGrov | DocScrutinizer: no problem :) | 18:20 |
DrGrov | DocScrutinizer: just messing with you :) so, a don't touch me FOSS means literally what exactly? | 18:21 |
dmj726_n9001 | he means you can't install your own custom kernel or OS. | 18:21 |
dmj726_n9001 | on the milestone. | 18:21 |
dmj726_n9001 | FOSS is Free and Open Source Software. | 18:22 |
hrw | ~foss | 18:22 |
infobot | somebody said foss was Free and Open Source Software | 18:22 |
DocScrutinizer | it 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 motorola | 18:23 |
hrw | DocScrutinizer: appmanager got speedup in 1.1.1 already | 18:23 |
* noobmonk3y signs motorola on the forehead........ | 18:23 | |

C-S-B | would like a remote for xbmc over bluetooth. | 20:46 |
MohammadAG_ | he needs to control a PC using the N900, use BlueMaemo | 20:46 |
nidO | ah yeah, i got as far as "is there a hid profile" | 20:46 |
C-S-B | lol | 20:46 |
C-S-B | so install bluemaemo? | 20:47 |
MohammadAG_ | yep | 20:47 |
C-S-B | cheers | 20:47 |
C-S-B | you guys are my google :P | 20:47 |
SpeedEvil | has anyone gotten using bt keyb sorted? | 20:47 |
MohammadAG_ | well one for one :) | 20:47 |
MohammadAG_ | SpeedEvil, I use my SU-8W | 20:47 |
SpeedEvil | I used wiki suggestions but to nol avail. | 20:47 |
s2n | it is actually my idea but since it is quite straight forward i was havig 2nd thoughts. what about the to do list | 20:47 |
nidO | bt keyboards work alright for some people, not others | 20:47 |
nidO | s2n well there are already several to-do style options | 20:48 |
SpeedEvil | MohammadAG_, did you need to do anythikng other than coment out the exclusion of the iknput moldule, and then pair? | 20:48 |
C-S-B | whats the best text editor ? anyone says vi, they die or send me a cheat sheet. | 20:48 |
nidO | your main problem is that simple to code + really really useful generally = already been coded | 20:48 |
nidO | nano. | 20:48 |
MohammadAG_ | SpeedEvil, restart the BT service (stop bluetoothd) or just reboot | 20:49 |
Arif_ | C-S-B, tried leafpad? | 20:49 |
s2n | yah rite.. | 20:49 |
*** jX has quit IRC | 20:49 | |
C-S-B | nano isnt available in the reapo is it? | 20:49 |
nidO | oh you mean on the device | 20:49 |
MohammadAG_ | C-S-B, it is | 20:49 |
SpeedEvil | It simply flashes the data transfer light on the keyb - and the bt icon goes blue for a momnet on keypress. nothing appears. | 20:49 |
nidO | it should be, but you might want leafpad anyway | 20:49 |
Arkenoi | any other four-arrows russian keyboard users here? | 20:49 |
MohammadAG_ | SpeedEvil, maybe you need to enter the code and press enter on the keyboard? | 20:50 |
*** mece has joined #maemo | 20:50 | |

mgedmin | C-S-B, how about vim then? | 20:50 |

C-S-B | vi/vim I've never got along with them. but thanks for the recommendation | 20:50 |
C-S-B | I do use vi, but I avoid. | 20:51 |
nidO | go with nano or leafpad | 20:51 |
C-S-B | or both! | 20:51 |
s2n | nido, thank you for your help... | 20:51 |

DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: so what? it basically does that without anybody telling it to do so. And nokia charger *is* a dumb charger | 22:21 |
SpeedEvil | swolen batteries are a really bad isea to keep using | 22:21 |
ShadowJK | DocScrutinizer, I mean without the D+/- shorting need | 22:21 |
gxben | puzzled, forget about my question | 22:21 |
noobmonk3y | kaylnaris, do they show in weekly ok? | 22:22 |
ShadowJK | SpeedEvil, I'm not using it anymore. It made bme abort() :) | 22:22 |
KaylNaris2 | Calendar settings show three calendars: Birthday, n900 and private. All three are checked | 22:22 |
DocScrutinizer | d+/- shorting is for 100mA->500mA only | 22:22 |

* SpeedEvil goes to check the oven with his drying li-ions. | 22:22 | |
KaylNaris2 | they dont show in weekly, neither | 22:22 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: not afaik. bq24150 default is 500 | 22:22 |
noobmonk3y | can you edit one of them? maybe they are set as being early appointments like 0100? - try setting them to all day? | 22:23 |
DocScrutinizer | for more you need to tell the chip it's ok, via I2C | 22:23 |
SpeedEvil | it wonMt go over 500: | 22:23 |
SpeedEvil | ? | 22:23 |
SpeedEvil | ah | 22:23 |
*** kaylnaris has quit IRC | 22:23 | |
ShadowJK | DocScrutinizer, oh I get the impression that it doesn't want to do much anything if it thinks the host is alive on i2c.. | 22:23 |

*** shamus has joined #maemo | 22:24 | |
ShadowJK | DocScrutinizer, it seems overly complicated for no good reason :-) | 22:24 |
DocScrutinizer | but iirc it charges for some 32min with either 100 or - on OTG signal with 500 | 22:24 |
KaylNaris2 | it's a little strange, it happens only for some entries | 22:24 |
iPeter- | Hi. I dont know is this ot in here but: is there any kb shortcut to select next input in microb? | 22:24 |
SpeedEvil | tab? | 22:25 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: believe me there's plenty of good reason | 22:25 |
ShadowJK | I think if it detects i2c activity it goes into 32 second mode, where it needs a poke from host every 32 seconds in order to not abort and raise an error | 22:25 |
SpeedEvil | (ctrl-i) | 22:25 |
iPeter- | with imput i mean example. username then i want select pw area with kb.. how? | 22:25 |

DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: (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" to | 22:37 |

Proteous | I heard that the n800 will make you lunch if you ask it nicely | 22:40 |
Proteous | but it only knows how to make cheese sammiches | 22:41 |
lbt | the N800 has a *bigger* screen... and Proteous, you know it does bacon | 22:41 |
javispedro | and much better battery life figures | 22:41 |
Proteous | bacon? | 22:41 |
Proteous | my n810 doesn't do bacon | 22:41 |
ds3 | everything... | 22:41 |
* Proteous cries | 22:41 | |
ds3 | the N900 has one nice feature but there is also an annoying drawback to equalize things | 22:41 |
ShadowJK | Actually when surfing the web my N800 consumes more power than surfing web on N900 | 22:41 |
*** netvandal has joined #maemo | 22:42 | |
Proteous | surfing the web on the n800 is much more painfull due to the slow CPU | 22:42 |
ShadowJK | yes | 22:42 |
javispedro | yep... | 22:42 |
ds3 | N900 - better screen; N800 - bigger screen; N900 - very very very annoying charging setup but it can directly charge from USB and so on | 22:42 |

otubo | Hello friends, I was wondering if there's a way to simply switch on/off the GPS on N900 (Maemo 5). | 22:43 |
* Arif_ wonders whats annoying about plugging a cable in and waiting | 22:44 | |
DocScrutinizer | hehehe | 22:44 |
Arif_ | then again, that led can get annoying if its laying next to you... | 22:44 |
*** javispedro has quit IRC | 22:44 | |
Arif_ | :P | 22:44 |
C-S-B-N900 | otubo: in the settings menu. | 22:44 |
Proteous | I broke the litle tabs off of my charging cable so it slides in and out of my n900 easily | 22:44 |
ShadowJK | N8x0 is more flexible in what power source it accepts for charging :) | 22:44 |
ds3 | half 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 rebooting | 22:44 |
* ShadowJK should solder himself a charging cable for N900 :/ | 22:44 | |
DocScrutinizer | Arif_: black sticky tape ;-P | 22:44 |
otubo | It 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 satelittes | 22:45 |
Arif_ | nowai | 22:45 |
*** spectre- has joined #maemo | 22:45 | |
Arif_ | I just turn it upside down | 22:45 |
DocScrutinizer | ds3: agreed | 22:45 |
Arif_ | :D | 22:45 |
ds3 | only work around seems to be unplug everything; wait a minute, hit power switch... let it boot and let it settle for about 5 minutes before doing any USB stuff or it just gets very confused | 22:45 |
C-S-B-N900 | otubo you need location test | 22:45 |
Proteous | I haven't encountered that problem | 22:45 |
ds3 | DocScrutinizer: I blew probally half an hour trying to rig a test to see if it can play audio, charge, and run Mapper at the same time | 22:45 |
otubo | C-S-B-N900, where do I find it? | 22:46 |
Stskeeps | Mapper is a bit bad these days | 22:46 |
Stskeeps | Maep is better :P | 22:46 |
ds3 | it all started with media player getting very very very confused and not playing any files | 22:46 |
ds3 | so that led to an ordering reboot; but then the USB power charger and it went downhill from there | 22:46 |
ds3 | Stskeeps: I was happy with Maemo-mapper | 22:47 |
otubo | Stskeeps, Maep is a great app indeed | 22:47 |
Stskeeps | i was too, on n8x0 | 22:47 |
Proteous | ds3, if you pug into a usb host that mounds the SD card and internal memory where you music is store then the music player gets confused... | 22:47 |

DocScrutinizer | seems a lot of companies think it's a great idea to put potential employees under pressure to see how they react. They'll always find a topic to make you sweat | 23:05 |
C-S-B-N900 | something like you have an iis 5 server and iis 6 server, you have 4 sites you want to host with seperate ips that can be accessed by both http and https, what else would you need software/ hw to get this to work. | 23:05 |
*** netvandal has joined #maemo | 23:05 | |
nidO | 4 ssl certs. | 23:05 |
C-S-B-N900 | well i thought as such, but you can self sign. | 23:06 |
C-S-B-N900 | it would work with warnings | 23:06 |
nidO | you can, but self signed certs on public websites are a joke | 23:06 |
DocScrutinizer | yep | 23:06 |
C-S-B-N900 | of course, but i didnt go into it saying public? | 23:07 |
*** tackat has joined #maemo | 23:07 | |
nidO | well, either way you still just need the 4 ssl certs, self-signed or otherwise :p | 23:07 |

*** netvandal has quit IRC | 23:08 | |
C-S-B-N900 | oh well, i want to touch more into hosting and cisco, and my cv shows i havent done that commercially. | 23:08 |
madduck | how does one import the cacert CA into maemo? the certificate manager doesn't seem to have an import functionality | 23:08 |
nidO | well yeah, getting more technical what you also need is the authority to fire whichever muppet's still running the iis5 system | 23:08 |
madduck | and how can i remove CAs from that list | 23:08 |
madduck | ? | 23:08 |
C-S-B-N900 | they wouldnt have got me for interview. | 23:08 |

Proteous | you look like a wizard when you replace a computer powersupply | 23:16 |
Proteous | ALL THOSE WIRES!! | 23:16 |
jacekowski | but that is sometimes a problem | 23:16 |
jacekowski | because you end up with people that think they know more than you | 23:16 |
jacekowski | and they always remind you that they would do it 100x better | 23:16 |
*** Zeddy has quit IRC | 23:16 | |
nidO | you also end up with people who're bemused that you cant pull micracles out of your ass | 23:16 |
Proteous | luckly I don't have that problem | 23:16 |
jacekowski | http://de.acidcow.com/pics/20100331/snake.gif | 23:17 |
Proteous | nidO: that sometimes happens | 23:17 |
C-S-B-N900 | i would prefer to linux role, but my mate did raise a good point with me. in a windows support role you get the joy of returning to your working linux system at home. what a relief. | 23:17 |
Proteous | heh | 23:17 |
Proteous | also there is the job security aspect | 23:17 |
nidO | *cough*im the other way round*cough* | 23:17 |
Proteous | windows will always need admins | 23:17 |
Proteous | it requires constant babying | 23:18 |
jacekowski | linux same | 23:18 |
Proteous | not as much | 23:18 |
jacekowski | i would disagree | 23:18 |
*** robl^laptop has joined #maemo | 23:18 | |
Proteous | that's fine :P | 23:18 |
C-S-B-N900 | nidO: your a win7 user no? | 23:18 |
nidO | both platforms need to be properly setup and maintained to work properly | 23:18 |
jacekowski | and there is one thing i hate in linux | 23:18 |
nidO | C-S-B-N900: yeah my workstation's win7 | 23:18 |
Proteous | the commandline? | 23:18 |
jacekowski | the way how services are done | 23:18 |
nidO | as is my fileserver/media server here | 23:18 |
jacekowski | i mean - it's done very nicely in windows 7 | 23:18 |
Proteous | you like the windows way better? | 23:18 |
jacekowski | dependencies | 23:18 |
jacekowski | delayed start | 23:19 |
jacekowski | automatic restart | 23:19 |
C-S-B-N900 | linux will stay up for ages only if configured right | 23:19 |
robl^laptop | is there support for objective-c in maemo? | 23:19 |
jacekowski | robl^laptop: yes | 23:19 |
jacekowski | robl^laptop: kinda | 23:19 |
nidO | C-S-B-N900: exactly the same as windows | 23:19 |
C-S-B-N900 | o rly? | 23:19 |
jacekowski | C-S-B-N900: i have windows and linux servers | 23:19 |
nidO | "oh it crashes really often" = dont install wank unstable drivers. | 23:19 |
C-S-B-N900 | im of the mind that lin>win. | 23:20 |
jacekowski | and only restarts that happen are every 3 months when we do some disaster recovery plan testing | 23:20 |
nidO | entirely depends on usage and needs, but for pure uptime capability, theres no difference | 23:20 |
iPeter- | with imput i mean example. username then i want select pw area with kb.. how? | 23:20 |
nidO | properly configured = they run basically forever outside of planned reboots | 23:20 |
iPeter- | whoops | 23:20 |
nidO | improperly configured = crash regularly | 23:20 |
iPeter- | Hi. I dont know is this ot in here but: is there any kb shortcut to select next input in microb? | 23:20 |
ShadowJK | That's funny, n900 says "Charging" even if there's no power | 23:20 |
robl^laptop | jacekowski: kinda? I'm looking to port some GNUstep apps to maemo 5. Just got an N900, and most of the SDK stuff seems to be c/C++ and python. not much mention of objective-c. any pointers? | 23:21 |
jacekowski | robl^laptop: it's linux | 23:21 |
jacekowski | robl^laptop: and in the end - processor supports only it's own native binary code | 23:21 |
jacekowski | robl^laptop: and everything is up to your toolchain | 23:21 |
*** eMHa has joined #maemo | 23:21 | |

robl^laptop | jacekowski: so just a debian arm cross-compile? | 23:21 |
*** marienz has joined #maemo | 23:21 | |
jacekowski | robl^laptop: i don't think that official maemo toolchain has obj-c compiler | 23:21 |
C-S-B-N900 | tbh though, i just need a frigging job. | 23:21 |
jacekowski | robl^laptop: robl^laptop but i saw one | 23:22 |
jacekowski | but you can always build your own crosscompiler | 23:22 |

C-S-B-N900 | nidO: no, im not fixed on a hosting job, but it would be a good direction for me. | 23:24 |
nidO | C-S-B-N900: one quick example: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=937712 | 23:24 |

*** eMHa has quit IRC | 23:26 | |
C-S-B-N900 | nidO: cheers , what kind of wage would you think this would be? | 23:26 |
noobmonk3y | and ukhost4u deserved to be burned | 23:26 |
noobmonk3y | almost as bad as fasthosts | 23:26 |
nidO | in 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 for | 23:27 |
*** javispedro has joined #maemo | 23:27 | |
nidO | if it's a bigger host looking for a pure sysadmin, maybe £18-20 upto perhaps 35k | 23:27 |
C-S-B-N900 | thats quite low, | 23:27 |
C-S-B-N900 | but then you do get to work at home. :) | 23:28 |
nidO | tech 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 shit | 23:28 |
nidO | most 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 time | 23:29 |
* noobmonk3y can tell the difference between dog and cat crap, now thats knowing shit | 23:29 | |
*** marienz has quit IRC | 23:30 | |
*** marienz has joined #maemo | 23:30 | |
nidO | tech 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 great | 23:30 |
C-S-B | nidO, just dropping an email to jobs@ukhost4u.com, they are down the road from me. | 23:31 |
C-S-B | maindenhead, | 23:31 |
C-S-B | :) | 23:31 |
nidO | handy. never used them myself, though obviously noobmonk3y's opinion of them's pretty low, maybe you can work to change that :p | 23:32 |
noobmonk3y | fasthosts i've taken through court | 23:32 |
nidO | theyre definitely a low-price bulk host though, so quality's always going to suffer | 23:32 |
noobmonk3y | really do not touch | 23:32 |
noobmonk3y | ukhosts at least refunded when the fecked up...... | 23:32 |
nidO | fasthosts give the industry a bad name. | 23:32 |
nidO | as do 1and1 | 23:32 |
noobmonk3y | yeah....... | 23:33 |

C-S-B-N900 | nidO: im worried that ill have a bump with getting into the hosting as i dont have experience in it. | 23:46 |
noobmonk3y | C-S-B-N900, naaaa, youll be fine | 23:46 |
noobmonk3y | just gotta accept an introduction job | 23:46 |
noobmonk3y | helpdesking usually | 23:46 |
dottedmag | Well, if kernel's evdev for built-in keyboard is good enough, it should be half-decent vt | 23:47 |
nidO | well, 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 knowledge | 23:47 |
nidO | and can figure your way round problems | 23:47 |
noobmonk3y | ;) | 23:47 |
ShadowJK | dottedmag, dunno if there's anything in the kernel by default to render text to screen :) | 23:47 |
dottedmag | gah, no /proc/config.gz | 23:47 |
C-S-B-N900 | i can, but i find my cv doesn't reflect my abilities. i know more than ive done commercially. | 23:47 |
nidO | well, its a case of communicating that to your employer | 23:48 |
C-S-B-N900 | well, i hope they get back to me. :) | 23:48 |
nidO | just 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 sector | 23:48 |
dottedmag | ShadowJK: usually CONFIG_VT and CONFIG_CONSOLE are left enabled. And there is /dev/fb*, so it should work out-of-box | 23:49 |
C-S-B-N900 | but i dont know cpanel etc, but doesn't mean i cant learn it when it comes to it. | 23:49 |
nidO | I got the job based purely on the knowledge I told them I had, and my ability to demonstrate that during the interview | 23:49 |
ShadowJK | dottedmag, well there's probably a reason the maemo early init scripts use a program to put text on screen :) | 23:49 |
C-S-B-N900 | awesome nidO | 23:49 |
C-S-B-N900 | what did you have to demonstrate out of interest | 23:50 |
C-S-B-N900 | at least i am fluent in english. | 23:50 |
nidO | cpanel 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 that | 23:50 |
nidO | as long as you're a fairly quick study | 23:51 |
noobmonk3y | hmmmmmmm menuBar.addSeparator() doesnt seem to work in pyqt....... | 23:51 |
C-S-B-N900 | nidO: i rule at self learning. | 23:51 |

*** carloscesa has quit IRC | 23:51 | |
nidO | just walk away. | 23:51 |
C-S-B-N900 | why? | 23:52 |
nidO | h-sphere is absolutely atrociously bad software, it's dreadful, and it's an absolute nightmare to administer | 23:52 |
C-S-B-N900 | also, do you have a work phone or do you use your own, as well as laptop etc. | 23:52 |
dottedmag | C-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 |
nidO | thankfully for all those reasons, not a great deal of hosts use it. | 23:52 |
nidO | my work's entirely online - i've made maybe 5-10 work-related phone calls in almost 7 years | 23:53 |
