MohammadAGdebootstrap's validating step is kinda fooked01:15
kW_MohammadAG: maybe you know something different: is it possible to get a normal console on the N900 screen?01:15
MohammadAGit validated files for a wrong distro01:15

kW_Is it possiblet to disable watchdogs _without_ getting into R&D mode?01:26
*** trbs has quit IRC01:26
MohammadAGyeah... no01:26

kW_MohammadAG: which is?01:26
*** lsm5 has quit IRC01:27
kW_"The keyboard backlight behind the left and right side of the keyboard flickers in response to system activity. " is quite annoying when using a phone for production, but I need to tame the watchdogs in order to have sufficient time to enter the passphrase01:28

DocScrutinizer51kW_: patch the kernel01:31
kW_DocScrutinizer51: for the kernel to do what?01:32
MohammadAGkW_, np01:32
*** kakashi_ has joined #maemo01:32
DocScrutinizer51for the kernel not to wake the watchdog(+)01:33
SpeedEvilOr maybe there are simply flags to turn off hte watchdog01:33
DocScrutinizer51also a posibility01:34
*** panaggio has joined #maemo01:35
benno2DocScrutinizer, BAD news: used QAudioInput on a N900, tried to record some audio in an interactive app. guess how much the latency was ? :)01:35
MohammadAGthere are flags, he doesn't want them01:35
DocScrutinizer51once a watchdog is awake it's its nature not to sleep01:35
MohammadAG1?01:35
SpeedEvilhttp://mxr.maemo.org/fremantle/source/kernel/ - see that kW_01:36
MohammadAGI tamed the watchdog01:36
kW_MohammadAG: the script depends on  /usr/sbin/wd_keepalive which does not seem to be preinstalled in maemo and which I also cannot find...01:36
SpeedEvilbenno2: 3 hours 24 minutes.01:36
DocScrutinizer51benno2: 2s?01:36
benno24000-5000msec latency with QAudioInput,01:36
SpeedEvil...01:36
DocScrutinizer51ouch01:36
MohammadAGkW_, check the mer rootfs image01:36
SpeedEvilThat is quite bad.01:36
benno2I don't know if I should laugh or cry01:36
kW_MohammadAG: well, the flags are fine, but I do not want the need for R&D-mode01:36
* SpeedEvil checks that.01:37
DocScrutinizer51benno2: see the 'policy enforcing engine" in the paper you dug out01:37
benno2how is a developer supposed to write an app for the N900 if by using the official Qt API getting those bad values01:37
*** Vanadis has quit IRC01:38
benno2DocScrutinizer51, but VOIP apps achieve lower latencies, so there must be a way. any idea which app I should look at ? (open source)01:38

DocScrutinizer51not on maemo, sorry01:40
*** DangerMaus has left #maemo01:40

SpeedEviloh01:40
DocScrutinizer51check the paper, ther,s a 'voice sink'01:41
DocScrutinizer51and that policy engine01:42
SpeedEvilIt's more like 0.15 (I forgot ssh latency)01:42
DocScrutinizer51which is the modern complement of alsactl01:42
benno2DocScrutinizer51, I would like to write an app which is system friendly and is interactive.  I found this document, any idea if one needs to use libplayback, OHM,PEP ?  http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Architecture/Multimedia_Domain#Audio_Subsystem01:43
*** t_s_o has quit IRC01:43
DocScrutinizer51sorry Imm ircing in a pub right now. no way to check that01:43
pupnikbenno2: nice graphic01:43
DocScrutinizer51ttyl01:44
benno2SpeedEvil, that 0.2sec  would be much better, wondering what arecord does differently since QAudioInput too uses ALSA01:45
SpeedEvilDunno.01:45
benno2SpeedEvil, the question is what device is arecord using in your case ? if you launch it with -v (verbose) it should show it01:45

SpeedEvilOh01:48
* SpeedEvil pokes lcuk01:48
SpeedEvilaudio input - delay latency?01:48
benno2SpeedEvil, could you use a unix pipe to test the input output latency ? mkfifo /tmp/fifo  ,  and then piping the raw audio to that pipe and aplay reading from it so you should hear what you say in real time (with a short delay)01:48
* SpeedEvil points at benno2's question above01:48
MohammadAGkW_, not sure about that, but you probably need a custom kernel01:48

benno2SpeedEvill what do you get with:  cat /proc/asound/RX51/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params01:53
SpeedEvilbenno2: which is about what I 'measured' - by banging on the mic and looking for the peak01:53
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: doesn't want to know01:53
SpeedEvil'closed'01:54
crashanddieBALLS01:54
benno2DocScrutinizer, I honestly did not try to combine arecord and aplay to act as a fullduplex audio system, pipe | might work01:55
crashanddieI fucking hate it when the browser crashes about 2/3 in a long post01:55
DocScrutinizerpupnik: that for sure isn't the buffer used by alsa<->PCM PA plugin01:55

*** DocScrutinizer51 has quit IRC01:56

kW_http://stskeeps.subnetmask.net/mer/0.16/mer-armel-n8x0-image-v0.16.tar.gz is a Mer image, but it does not contain "/usr/sbin/wd_keepalive"...01:57
benno2SpeedEvil, thanks. that looks like the real hw device,  buffer size 1920, so 2 channels, 16bit = 480samples / 48000 = 10msec01:58
benno2the question is can an user space app access the real alsa device and not the one emulated by pulse audio01:58
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: should work, if not then you got problems with arecord input device or aplay output device. For arecord I wouldn't be astonished to find 'default' doesn't work for record source01:59
*** kthomas has joined #maemo01:59
*** kthomas_vh_ has quit IRC01:59
SpeedEvilIt was working - I was banging on the mic - and the vumeter was bouncing01:59
SpeedEvilHowever - playing audio wasn't01:59
benno2I mean without killing pulse audio. the app should be system friendly and not requiring the user to do something special like killing and restarting daemons01:59
SpeedEvilhmm01:59
* SpeedEvil wants to at some point work out how idle the device can be when playing audio.02:00
*** florian has quit IRC02:00
SpeedEvilI want to know if the audio 'card' can simply take a 10 meg buffer, and play it02:00
DocScrutinizerbenno2: (can a user...) can, if you accept the limitations as mentioned above. Might freak PA02:00
SpeedEvilfunky02:01
* SpeedEvil wonders how he's totally killed sound02:01
DocScrutinizeryou tried to playback tru alsa?02:02
SpeedEvilno02:02
DocScrutinizer[2010-06-14 00:59:35] <SpeedEvil> However - playing audio wasn't02:03
SpeedEvilOk - somehow the audio has gotten wedged into going to the speakers02:03
SpeedEvilDocScrutinizer: just using aplay/record02:03
SpeedEvils/speakers/phones/02:03
DocScrutinizerexactly02:03
benno2DocScrutinizer, I can only pray that Meego will clear this mess, since other companies like intel are involved perhaps they dumped some of this nonsense. looks nice on paper but works crappy in practice02:03
DocScrutinizeryou bet it's crap02:04
SpeedEvilAha02:04
DocScrutinizerthe concept is flawed02:04
SpeedEvilOk - that works now02:04
SpeedEvilI get wierd delayed feedback noises02:04
DocScrutinizerwhat works now02:04
benno2SpeedEvil, verdict ?02:04
DocScrutinizernice :-D02:05
SpeedEvilarecord|aplay02:05
DocScrutinizerhehehe02:05
SpeedEvilIt sounds like a 1960s dr who02:05
DocScrutinizerusually has a rtt ~500ms02:05
DocScrutinizeror less02:05
SpeedEvilaround a second02:05
DocScrutinizereeew02:05
SpeedEvilthat is - one tap generates a ~1hz cycle02:05
benno2SpeedEvil, keep in mind that unix pipes introduce some delay too, probably the pipe is a few kbytes so it might still not be the best the system can achieve02:05
SpeedEvilI know02:06
DocScrutinizerarecord -D hw:0.002:06
DocScrutinizeror 0.102:06
DocScrutinizeror 1.002:06
DocScrutinizer?02:06
DocScrutinizernota bene you can advice arecord/play to use arbitrary buffer sizes etc02:07
mecewhy autobuilder, Why are you killing my wesnoth?!02:08
DocScrutinizeryou can config almost everything, as aplay also is the test app for alsa02:08
DocScrutinizerthe reference implementation02:08
DocScrutinizerthe only thing not used in aplay/record is buffer skipping as used in twinkle, and that's why twinkle fails with PA's vrappy ALSA compatibility plugin - they never even cared about implemeting that call in a semi decent way02:10
*** __a has joined #maemo02:11
benno2DocScrutinizer, so do I understand it correctly that the N900 provides a real ALSA hw interface (10msec latency hw buf), pulse audio hijacks it and provides the crappy high latency alsa device to user space apps ?  still wondering how voip apps like skype get their work done02:11
DocScrutinizermaybe skipping wasn't the correct term02:11
DocScrutinizerbenno2: obviously, yes. exactly02:12
DocScrutinizerbenno2: look at p15 of the unbelievable paper02:12
DocScrutinizer""ALSA hw:0 \n the reular ALSA device""02:13
DocScrutinizerregular even02:13
DocScrutinizerwhich is ALSA sink/source in the PA domain02:14
benno2DocScrutinizer, ALSA provides a software mixing layer which can be sample accurate, wondering why they did not use it and let the app developer the possibility open to use hw alsa directly02:14
*** __a has quit IRC02:14
DocScrutinizerthen you got a voice sink/source, and a music sink02:14
MohammadAGDownloading 400MBs on the N900's gonna take time02:15
MohammadAGeven worse is unpacking them02:15
SpeedEvilThere are constraints.02:15
*** djdm has joined #maemo02:15
* MohammadAG disables PSM02:15
SpeedEvilFor example - you have to do the filtering also02:15
MohammadAGwould that even help?02:15
DocScrutinizerbenno2: dunno. Somebody every now and then claims dmix is buggy, but I always found it works like a charm and PA is buggy like dogshit02:15
SpeedEviland other stuff that's not in alsa02:15
SpeedEvilbut...02:15
* benno2 agrees with DocScrutinizer 02:15
SpeedEvilMohammadAG: With me - PSM does not decrease download speed.02:16
SpeedEvilMohammadAG: It does affect some interactive stuff like X, or ssh02:16
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: filtering? not in ALSA? c'mon02:16
SpeedEvilIt is?02:17
SpeedEviloh well.02:17
MohammadAGOh, so it wouldn't help :/02:17
* MohammadAG wants a quad core armel cpu02:17
DocScrutinizerthere's LADSPA, you can't do the things that can't be done with LADSPA02:17
MohammadAG23 minutes, that's not bad02:18
benno2is there an open source VOIP app which works well on the N900 ? (in order to look at the code what's the magic key to achieve latencies that are not measured in centuries)02:18
SpeedEvilecho cancellation?02:18
DocScrutinizerSpeedEvil: also notice they developed their own proprietary shit for PA. So they could have done for ALSA02:18

DocScrutinizerI mean there's a *reason* why PA uses the ALSA soundcard kernel drivers02:20
benno2SpeedEvil, no need for audio stuff which resides in the kernel. for example the jackd sound daemon is an userspace app. it uses alsa and runs with RT scheduling, kernel must be compiled with  real time support. it can easily achieve single digit latencies without dropouts, under high load and several active apps.02:21
DocScrutinizerthey're just not capable to come up with anything on par02:21

DocScrutinizerok, 16.502:24
*** k-s is now known as k-s[AWAY]02:24
benno2DocScrutinizer, it depends, sound travels 1meter in 3msec, so 10msec = loudspeaker at 3 meters distance. as said jack is capable of 3-5msec latency (input to output), and since most dsp based hw effects do use buffering too I don't think they do considerably better.02:24

*** cards has quit IRC06:33
DocScrutinizerGeneralAntilles: the LP5521 in N810 had 16 steps per engine, fixed. The LP5523 in N900 has 6 pages of 16, forming a uniform storage area of 96, which you can partition as you like to point each engine to the start address of its program. Alas the driver developer was 'too lazy' to deal with that awkward paging, and hardcoded a dedicated page for each of the 3 engines, wasting the remaining 3 pages worth of storage06:33

Khertan_1/ Said to user to launch xterm and type : apt-get upgrade16:08
Khertan_2/ Said to user to download and install the package manually from deb16:09

lcuksure but how do you balance that - i write a simple wrapper app around already existing libraries who gets the spoils17:03

vldcnst(he himself has almost finished work on usb otg) < does he even know how to open a terminal?19:03
benno2alterego, I am sceptical about that, since according to the docs, gst sits above pulse audio19:04

*** melmoth has quit IRC19:12
alteregoIt's somewhazt different if you want to stream data from some source like network, or just play an audio file :)19:13
benno2alterego, no an app which should fast react to audio input showing it visually. currently with QAudioInput I get 5000msec (5sec!) latencies. the same code on Linux gets low latencies. QAudioInput uses ALSA (did look at the code of qt 4.6.2/3). so I think it's maemo's pulse audios ALSA emulation19:13
*** smhar has quit IRC19:13
alteregobenno2: your getting 5 sec latency on device?19:14
*** muelli_ has joined #maemo19:14
alterego~you're ...19:14
zaheermbenno2, you tried on a desktop with pu;seaudio and alsa emulation turned on?19:15
benno2alterego, exactly, seems unbelievable but it's that way. on the SDK under freemantle-x86 it works well, as well as on plain linux with alsa. but on a N900 it sucks. it's a plain N900 with PR 1.2.  QAudioOutput OTOH seems to work ok (I'd say 0.x secs output latency)19:15
benno2zaheerm, no I tried on the desktop with plain alsa.19:15
*** jerhum has joined #maemo19:16
*** SWFu_ has joined #maemo19:16
alteregobenno2: okay, just to clarify here, pulse actually also provides alsa with sources.. Erm, I read a cool article a while ago on Linux audio systems, I'll try to find it, but basically pulse has a loop back, which goes back in alsa, it's those "devices" you should be using.19:17
alteregoIf you want to talk direct to alsa that is.19:17
*** SWFu has quit IRC19:19
*** paroneayea has joined #maemo19:19
alteregojust trying to remember where I read the article. I'll dig up a gst example too.19:19
*** Venemo has joined #maemo19:19
benno2alterego, probalby QAudioInput choses the default ALSA devices and that is the pulse ALSA device. and this is what causes latency. if I request a buffer of 2048 bytes at 44kHz (mono 16bit = 1024 bytes = about 20msecs), it returns a bufsize of 8000bytes, which is already fishy.  I tried with 8khz mono 16bit and a bufsize of 512bytes and it is adjusted to 1600bytes. so it seems like it always tries to set the bufsize to 100msec.  but the real latency is 5000msec19:20
benno2 when capturing audio. not the advertised 100msec19:20

benno2alterego, I will write example code and file a bug report to maemo, this is a severe bug. otherwise they have to explain the latency thing more detailed. since Qt is advertised as the API to use for crossplatform code (and will be the official API on Symbian and Meego), Nokia needs to get things straight. not halfbaked high latency multimedia API. I worked with real time audio for the last 10 years, on dozen of platforms and never saw this bad behaviour.19:24

benno2alterego, I'm one of the authors of this open source sampler : http://www.linuxsampler.org and have contributed tools and tests to improve the audio latency of linux, so I know what I am talking about. in linuxsampler we achieve single digit latencies on any platorm even windows. Nokia messed up the audio system on maemo big time.19:26
benno2and it seems that meego will use the same stuff.  very sad19:26
*** Vanadis has joined #maemo19:26
alteregobenno2: I'm not convinced it's a bug, I just think you don't fully get how maemo's audio is "wired" together.19:27

*** marcels has joined #maemo19:28

*** eocanha2 has quit IRC19:29
*** mgedmin has quit IRC19:29
benno2alterego, might be, but look at it from a developer's perspective. Nokia says: use Qt so you get efficient and portable code. I use QAudioInput and the latency sucks. so it means the maemo qt people did not do their homework. if developers need to go through 1000 hurdles to get decent latency they lose interest and patience and will switch platform. on iphone for example almost any stupid app provides low latency. because there is a single audio API which work19:30
benno2s. I tihkn I need to join the meego ML and Qt ML and start providing numbers and test apps like I did with the linux kernel. it helped a lot. inversted a lot of time but kernel devs listened, used my tools and improved the scheduler.19:30

alteregobenno2: also, looking at the default settings for pulsesrc in gstreamer, which is probably what Qt is using, there's a default 40000 microsecond latency buffer ..19:32
alteregowhich is pretty close to your your five seconds?19:33
benno2alterego, thanks for the tips. I can try to change my code to use gst. but if Nokia did their homework and used it in QAudioInput too it would solve this issue without embarassing 5000msec latency. no wonder that user say Nokia phones are slow and unresponsive. those latency details do matter. users do want reactive multimedia19:33
