SpeedEvil | Ok - that works now | 02:04 |
SpeedEvil | I get wierd delayed feedback noises | 02:04 |
DocScrutinizer | what works now | 02:04 |
benno2 | SpeedEvil, verdict ? | 02:04 |
DocScrutinizer | nice :-D | 02:05 |
SpeedEvil | arecord|aplay | 02:05 |
DocScrutinizer | hehehe | 02:05 |
SpeedEvil | It sounds like a 1960s dr who | 02:05 |
DocScrutinizer | usually has a rtt ~500ms | 02:05 |
DocScrutinizer | or less | 02:05 |
SpeedEvil | around a second | 02:05 |
DocScrutinizer | eeew | 02:05 |
SpeedEvil | that is - one tap generates a ~1hz cycle | 02:05 |
benno2 | SpeedEvil, 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 achieve | 02:05 |
SpeedEvil | I know | 02:06 |
DocScrutinizer | arecord -D hw:0.0 | 02:06 |
DocScrutinizer | or 0.1 | 02:06 |
DocScrutinizer | or 1.0 | 02:06 |
DocScrutinizer | ? | 02:06 |
DocScrutinizer | nota bene you can advice arecord/play to use arbitrary buffer sizes etc | 02:07 |
mece | why autobuilder, Why are you killing my wesnoth?! | 02:08 |
DocScrutinizer | you can config almost everything, as aplay also is the test app for alsa | 02:08 |
DocScrutinizer | the reference implementation | 02:08 |
DocScrutinizer | the 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 way | 02:10 |
*** __a has joined #maemo | 02:11 | |
benno2 | DocScrutinizer, 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 done | 02:11 |
DocScrutinizer | maybe skipping wasn't the correct term | 02:11 |
DocScrutinizer | benno2: obviously, yes. exactly | 02:12 |
DocScrutinizer | benno2: look at p15 of the unbelievable paper | 02:12 |
DocScrutinizer | ""ALSA hw:0 \n the reular ALSA device"" | 02:13 |
DocScrutinizer | regular even | 02:13 |
DocScrutinizer | which is ALSA sink/source in the PA domain | 02:14 |
benno2 | DocScrutinizer, 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 directly | 02:14 |
*** __a has quit IRC | 02:14 | |
DocScrutinizer | then you got a voice sink/source, and a music sink | 02:14 |
MohammadAG | Downloading 400MBs on the N900's gonna take time | 02:15 |
MohammadAG | even worse is unpacking them | 02:15 |
SpeedEvil | There are constraints. | 02:15 |
*** djdm has joined #maemo | 02:15 | |
* MohammadAG disables PSM | 02:15 | |
SpeedEvil | For example - you have to do the filtering also | 02:15 |
MohammadAG | would that even help? | 02:15 |
DocScrutinizer | benno2: dunno. Somebody every now and then claims dmix is buggy, but I always found it works like a charm and PA is buggy like dogshit | 02:15 |
SpeedEvil | and other stuff that's not in alsa | 02:15 |
SpeedEvil | but... | 02:15 |
* benno2 agrees with DocScrutinizer | 02:15 | |
SpeedEvil | MohammadAG: With me - PSM does not decrease download speed. | 02:16 |
SpeedEvil | MohammadAG: It does affect some interactive stuff like X, or ssh | 02:16 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: filtering? not in ALSA? c'mon | 02:16 |
SpeedEvil | It is? | 02:17 |
SpeedEvil | oh well. | 02:17 |
MohammadAG | Oh, so it wouldn't help :/ | 02:17 |
* MohammadAG wants a quad core armel cpu | 02:17 | |
DocScrutinizer | there's LADSPA, you can't do the things that can't be done with LADSPA | 02:17 |
MohammadAG | 23 minutes, that's not bad | 02:18 |
benno2 | is 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 |
SpeedEvil | echo cancellation? | 02:18 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: also notice they developed their own proprietary shit for PA. So they could have done for ALSA | 02:18 |
*** tbf has quit IRC | 02:18 | |
*** strcpy has quit IRC | 02:18 | |
SpeedEvil | Indeed | 02:18 |
SpeedEvil | Or they could have put pulseaudio in kernel. | 02:19 |
DocScrutinizer | OMFG!! | 02:19 |
DocScrutinizer | kernel: tainted | 02:19 |
SpeedEvil | :) | 02:19 |
DocScrutinizer | I mean there's a *reason* why PA uses the ALSA soundcard kernel drivers | 02:20 |
benno2 | SpeedEvil, 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 |
DocScrutinizer | they're just not capable to come up with anything on par | 02:21 |
SpeedEvil | benno2: Things aren't always one sanely :/ | 02:22 |
DocScrutinizer | but WHO NEEDS THAT? | 02:22 |
SpeedEvil | s/on/don/ | 02:22 |
infobot | SpeedEvil meant: benno2: Things aren't always done sanely :/ | 02:22 |
DocScrutinizer | maybe musiciians trying to run realtime effects on their computer. Then a 10ms latency might be too much | 02:22 |
*** k-s[AWAY] is now known as k-s | 02:22 | |
DocScrutinizer | though even musicians seem to tolerate 50ms | 02:23 |
DocScrutinizer | I mean, that's 15m distance. So what? | 02:23 |
DocScrutinizer | ok, 16.5 | 02:24 |
*** k-s is now known as k-s[AWAY] | 02:24 | |
benno2 | DocScrutinizer, 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 |

SpeedEvil | There is probably a nokia spec somewhere that says 'thou shalt keep under xms delay' | 02:27 |
benno2 | IMHO next time nokia should better research what kind of architectures exist (eg audio) on linux and discuss that with the project devs rather than hire a local intern and then based on his findings make a device out of it. doomed to fail | 02:27 |

DocScrutinizer | kW_: also /usr/sbin/wd_keepalive seems to not exist on maemo (I know it's fedora). So if you boot the maemo kernel, I wouldn't expect the way the watchdogs work on N900 is completely compatible with the wd_keepalive way | 03:17 |

*** MohammadAG51 has quit IRC | 03:49 | |
DocScrutinizer | kW_: the flickering kbd backlight in R&D mode is a hardware feature. It's enabled by NOLO I guess | 03:57 |
kW_ | DocScrutinizer: but how does the hardware know whether some parts of the system are active or not? | 03:58 |
DocScrutinizer | see ""SLEEP_IND, NSLEEP1, SYS_CLKREQ"" on schematics page 6 | 03:58 |
kW_ | well, SLEEP_IND does not refer to the keyboard LEDs, does it? | 03:59 |
DocScrutinizer | SLEEP_IND seems the gate signal enabling this feature | 03:59 |
kW_ | what makes you believe this? (I actually tried to disable "sleep_ind", with no success) | 04:00 |
DocScrutinizer | the other 2 signals obviously control the flickering of the ndividual LEDs | 04:00 |
DocScrutinizer | kW_: the schematics make me believe this | 04:00 |

*** alehorst has joined #maemo | 04:02 | |
DocScrutinizer | btw SLEEP_IND is GPIO162 | 04:02 |
DocScrutinizer | kW_: you find the scheamtics via a link on the wiki hardware schematics page | 04:03 |

*** mitsutaka has joined #maemo | 04:19 | |
DocScrutinizer | basically *somebody* does the GPIO wiggling in SoC, probably NOLO starts with it. Dunno if maybe SYS_CLKREQ and SYS_OFF_MODE aka NSLEEP1 are configured to work 2nd function | 04:19 |
kW_ | hmm | 04:20 |
DocScrutinizer | but I'm rather sure setting GPIO_162 to low (high?) will enable rsp stop that flickering | 04:20 |
kW_ | but then, setting SLEEP_IND to 0 should work, why it apparently did not | 04:21 |
DocScrutinizer | And I'd not be surprised to learn this particular GPIO isn't touched anywhere in the kernel | 04:21 |
*** TheNewAndy has joined #maemo | 04:21 | |

DocScrutinizer | GeneralAntilles: 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 storage | 06:33 |

plastun | hello! how to create TouchSelector with some columns, but show only one? | 08:53 |
*** melmoth has joined #maemo | 08:55 | |
kirma | unassisted GPS isn't so central function to phone operation that the hardware would be allowed to take lots of space for components or power, and assist is an effective solution that's available on phone by design | 08:55 |
kirma | too bad regarding roaming, but well... | 08:55 |

shorter | kirma, oh so you mean the ability to use GPS always without spending; yeah good idea | 09:04 |
kirma | but anyway, if you don't get GPS lock with assist outdoors, then you have a problem. otherwise it's probably ok. | 09:04 |
kirma | I've also observed excess unassisted lock times on e90 and n900... situation of course doesn't get any better if you're on the move, or in even slightly obstructed environment | 09:05 |
*** Dantonic has joined #maemo | 09:06 | |
kirma | assist solves pretty much all of those issues with a rather small amount of traffic (although if it's done repetitively, that might cause noticeable numbers on roaming) | 09:07 |

alterego | BCMM: I just think they can't be bothered at the moment :) | 13:29 |
alterego | BCMM: It's a feature that wasn't really discussed, should be availabe in the next phone I guess. | 13:30 |
alterego | Not particularly popular though | 13:30 |

* SpeedEvil notes from the (way) above discussion that silent answerphone type functionality would be entirely possible. | 14:00 | |
SpeedEvil | As if the cellmo is solely connected over a databus, you can easily ham a recorder/playback thingy in tehre. | 14:00 |
BCMM | SpeedEvil: are you talking about having the phone itself answer calls and take messages? | 14:00 |
SpeedEvil | yes | 14:00 |
BCMM | SpeedEvil: that would be really nice | 14:01 |
BCMM | there is a thing that i think phones should do, that i have never heard of: | 14:01 |
alterego | SpeedEvil: that's on my list of apps todo actually, should be pretty easy. | 14:01 |
BCMM | answer a call, play a message saying "i'm in a restaurant, press 1 if my parents died or something, otherwise hang up" | 14:01 |

SpeedEvil | BCMM: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10506 | 14:12 |
povbot | Bug 10506: 'My nokia' unsubscribe attempt costs money. This is in breach of the UK regulations on premium rate texts. | 14:12 |
SpeedEvil | This is as I understand a premium rate text number. | 14:12 |
SpeedEvil | And you have not been informed about the costs. | 14:12 |
alterego | SpeedEvil: said local rate in the text | 14:12 |
SpeedEvil | It costs 10p | 14:12 |
SpeedEvil | this does not make it not premium in terms of the regulations as I understand it. | 14:13 |
alterego | ghey, not part of my inclusive texts then ... | 14:13 |
alterego | Why can't the susidise it or something, freakin' idiots. | 14:13 |
BCMM | "local sms cost" means "not included in your free texts"? | 14:13 |
alterego | BCMM: I don't think it means anything :P | 14:14 |
BCMM | i presumed it meant "normal sms cost" | 14:14 |
SpeedEvil | As I understand it also - SMSs from 84000 will cost you money. | 14:14 |
BCMM | hmm, that would anger me | 14:14 |
SpeedEvil | Still only 10p. But... | 14:15 |
SpeedEvil | See above bug | 14:15 |
BCMM | why are incomming messages even allowed to cost money? | 14:15 |
alterego | Yeah, | 14:15 |
BCMM | i mean, i know that happens all the time in the US | 14:15 |
SpeedEvil | I believe the above facts are also related to ongoing my nokia subscriptions. | 14:15 |
SpeedEvil | BCMM: Premium rate SMSs can. They have all sorts of regulations round them. In principle, they are required to do all sorts of things to tell you about the price | 14:16 |

flailingmonkey | ah, so you are the one working on eve-watcher. I'm surprised there aren't more apps to support MMO players | 15:39 |
*** alehorst has quit IRC | 15:39 | |
Venemo | flailingmonkey: where have you heard about eve-watcher? :P | 15:40 |
*** fab has quit IRC | 15:40 | |
Appiah | eve-watcher O_o | 15:40 |
Appiah | is that like mEvemon ? | 15:41 |
Venemo | yes, only better | 15:41 |
Venemo | except that it is still under development | 15:41 |
Appiah | what can eve-watcher do that evemon cant? | 15:41 |
Venemo | it can put widgets on your desktop | 15:41 |
Venemo | for as many characters as you want :) | 15:41 |
*** apoi has quit IRC | 15:41 | |
Appiah | so its a eve monitor with widgets? | 15:42 |
pigeon | that was fun, i just turned on the world cup widget for minute or so and got a goal | 15:42 |
Venemo | also, it displays notifications (sms/email style) if your skill training is complete | 15:42 |
*** eocanha2 has quit IRC | 15:42 | |
pigeon | own goal too :) | 15:42 |
*** eocanha2 has joined #maemo | 15:42 | |
Appiah | but basiclly is same functionality like Evemon/Gtkevemon | 15:42 |
Venemo | it will also have a skill planner | 15:42 |
Appiah | watching your skills / skill planing? | 15:42 |
Venemo | yes, with a few personal touches :) | 15:42 |
Venemo | like portrait mode support and stuff like that | 15:43 |
Mece | wow.. I increased font in xchat, and now I can read xchat and watch football in the multitasking window! | 15:43 |

Venemo | just tell me what should I tell to X to make it do what I want :) | 15:44 |
flailingmonkey | i can't think of any other program that adds widgets to the desktop, rather than having the user add them | 15:44 |
guysoft42 | hi all, some developer i know wrote a maemo app in qt creator, is there a way for him to automatically package the program in a deb package? | 15:44 |

*** celesteh has joined #maemo | 16:06 | |
Khertan_ | I've a question ... some users have problems with some of my apps ... as packages are available in extras, HAM simply ignore my packages in my own repository even if package are more recent ... | 16:08 |
Khertan_ | i didn't see many way to avoid that : | 16:08 |
Khertan_ | 1/ Said to user to launch xterm and type : apt-get upgrade | 16:08 |
Khertan_ | 2/ Said to user to download and install the package manually from deb | 16:09 |
SpeedEvil | I'm unsure if you can push newer versions of libs into extras-devel | 16:09 |
Mece_ | flailingmonkey, did you find the filemanager lib? | 16:09 |
Khertan_ | so i got bug report for old version and already fixed bugs | 16:10 |
Mece_ | Khertan_, are we talking about libs? | 16:10 |
*** MNZ has quit IRC | 16:10 | |
Khertan_ | Mece_: nop | 16:10 |
Venemo | Khertan_: apt-get update before apt-get upgrade | 16:10 |
Khertan_ | This happen for any packages from external repository | 16:11 |
Khertan_ | Venemo: yes ... i know ... but ... many user didn't do apt-get upgrade and just wait for HAM update notification | 16:11 |
Khertan_ | which didn't happen | 16:11 |
Mece_ | Khertan_, ok. perhaps rename the package then? that would solve this. | 16:12 |
GAN900 | Khertan_, obviously a good reason to not run and play with your toys somewhere else but help us get Extras working better. . . . | 16:12 |

jacekowski | it would be very evil to create alternative to ovi store | 16:42 |
SpeedEvil | Anyone can publish to ovi store. | 16:42 |
SpeedEvil | As I understand it. | 16:42 |

Venemo | Khertan: care to elaborate? | 16:54 |
alterego | Venemo: there are a fair few of us that want to develop paid for content tbh. | 16:55 |
nidO | Extras is a great source for community-written stuff but it completely precludes the entire commercial side of application development | 16:55 |
Venemo | well, that is understandable | 16:55 |
flailingmonkey | community store will bring more developers than ovi store, because its progress will be more transparent | 16:55 |
Khertan_ | Venemo: maemo extra didn't have khteditor, new version of pygtkeditor, new version of pypackager | 16:55 |
nidO | for which the ovi store being non-shit is badly needed | 16:55 |
alterego | Especially now I don't have a job :) | 16:55 |
Venemo | still, there are ways to publish paid apps | 16:55 |
cehteh | is there any commercial side? | 16:55 |
Venemo | like Sygic | 16:55 |
cehteh | for the n900.. | 16:55 |
Venemo | they did it without the Ovi Store | 16:55 |
cehteh | anything which gets comercially developed gets a free clone soonafter :P | 16:56 |
Khertan_ | Venemo: i did for VectorMine too withotu Ovi Store ... | 16:56 |

*** juergbi has joined #maemo | 16:58 | |
alterego | Though uploading non-free apps, with maybe a demo mode and then registration support might work. | 16:59 |
lcuk | a place where open source community apps can be obtained for devices (ala extras) is a must have important part of Open Source. | 16:59 |
Khertan_ | Venemo: and there is worst problem, if you have try to publish it before to maemo repository, Hildon Application Manager will ignore all package (even newer) from external repository if there is an older version in extras | 16:59 |
flailingmonkey | until I can get someone on Ovi store team onto forum/irc, I'm not going to expect much improvement from them | 16:59 |

flailingmonkey | lcuk, extras should still exist, but adding the ability to donate from HAM for example would be a major feature to support open source development | 17:02 |
lcuk | sure but how do you balance that - i write a simple wrapper app around already existing libraries who gets the spoils | 17:03 |
lcuk | do we enumerate the developers of all the components in the stack and share the money accordingly (in which case linus gets a couple of cents for each app) | 17:04 |
*** tearms has quit IRC | 17:05 | |
flailingmonkey | lcuk, it really works just the same as when people go to a donate link in some random t.m.o thread | 17:05 |

flailingmonkey | crashanddie, most definitely | 17:28 |
flailingmonkey | alterego, from the forum link Khertan_ posted it is plain that Ovi Store does not plan to support independent developers at this time | 17:30 |
alterego | flailingmonkey: I was saying that I agree, paypal isn't as good an option as Ovi, from a UX perspective .. | 17:30 |
Khertan_ | lcuk: i've still a abaccus somewhere :) | 17:30 |
talmai | i have a text input field in HTML that should receive only digits and i don't know how to implement it to work in all localisations (so i cant just convert character "q" to number 1 etc. with javascript) | 17:30 |
crashanddie | salut Khertan_ | 17:30 |

flailingmonkey | alterego, yeah, its a bummer that its not more suitable :-/ | 17:30 |
alterego | flailingmonkey: should we start a maemo.org foundation which is tax registered that we all can use to promote extras apps then? | 17:31 |
*** Sargun has joined #maemo | 17:32 | |
flailingmonkey | alterego, its an approach, but the overhead would probably be way too much of a strain | 17:32 |
Khertan_ | talmai: if i remember well webview use webkit, wich support html5 : so just use <input type=number> | 17:32 |
alterego | Has anyone explored this possibility, I know there is discussion about maemo select apps being pushed into Ovi, but this is a different issue all together, how about a maemo.org foundation that can be used to push maemo extras apps into Ovi and accept payment? | 17:32 |
*** teilzeitstudent has joined #maemo | 17:33 | |

*** bergie has quit IRC | 17:50 | |

crashanddie | well, I've always wanted to see a community-written HAM | 17:52 |
crashanddie | HAM has always been limited -- GeneralAntilles has put together plenty of ideas, but it's never been done. | 17:52 |
alterego | flailingmonkey: I think someone is/was doing that, things like ratings and screenshot right? | 17:52 |
flailingmonkey | even being able to select the developers name to see their user page (which could have a donate link on it) | 17:53 |
alterego | I'm still pissed at the ammount of bloody themes in extras! :P | 17:53 |
crashanddie | HAM needs to be dynamic. I don't go to maemo.org downloads, I browse HAM. I wanted to be prompted "based on your choices, you might be interested in "this" new app" | 17:53 |
flailingmonkey | yeah, but HAM is open, on gitoreous | 17:53 |
*** mirsal has joined #maemo | 17:53 | |

flailingmonkey | I'm going to break that whole mechanism anyway | 17:54 |

alterego | What if my killer app is an open store, I can distribute my store app on ovi store :P | 17:59 |
alterego | I just want a small cut of all you guys sales. and I'll donate some of my profits to maemo.org :) | 18:00 |

benno2 | alterego, ok. so regarding gst, any app you recommend to look at (at the source) ? | 19:11 |
alterego | benno2: what are you writing? a VoIP client? | 19:11 |
*** melmoth has quit IRC | 19:12 | |
alterego | It's somewhazt different if you want to stream data from some source like network, or just play an audio file :) | 19:13 |
benno2 | alterego, 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 emulation | 19:13 |
*** smhar has quit IRC | 19:13 | |

*** muelli_ has joined #maemo | 19:14 | |
alterego | ~you're ... | 19:14 |
zaheerm | benno2, you tried on a desktop with pu;seaudio and alsa emulation turned on? | 19:15 |
benno2 | alterego, 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 |
benno2 | zaheerm, no I tried on the desktop with plain alsa. | 19:15 |
*** jerhum has joined #maemo | 19:16 | |
*** SWFu_ has joined #maemo | 19:16 | |
alterego | benno2: 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 |
alterego | If you want to talk direct to alsa that is. | 19:17 |
*** SWFu has quit IRC | 19:19 | |

*** Venemo has joined #maemo | 19:19 | |
benno2 | alterego, 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 5000msec | 19:20 |
benno2 | when capturing audio. not the advertised 100msec | 19:20 |

benno2 | alterego, 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 |

benno2 | alterego, 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 |
benno2 | and it seems that meego will use the same stuff. very sad | 19:26 |
*** Vanadis has joined #maemo | 19:26 | |
alterego | benno2: 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 |

alterego | :/ | 19:27 |
*** marcels has joined #maemo | 19:28 | |
alterego | So, using gst or pulse directly is probably your only option, and from what it sounds like you're doing, I'd go with gstreamer. | 19:28 |
*** eocanha2 has quit IRC | 19:29 | |
*** mgedmin has quit IRC | 19:29 | |
benno2 | alterego, 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 work | 19:30 |
benno2 | s. 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 |

alterego | benno2: 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 |
alterego | which is pretty close to your your five seconds? | 19:33 |
benno2 | alterego, 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 multimedia | 19:33 |

BCMM | is there a way to determine, before installation, the files a package provides? | 20:14 |
BCMM | a website, perhaps? | 20:14 |
Venemo | BCMM: download its .deb file, open it with 7-Zip and see what's in there | 20:15 |
flailingmonkey | the utilities that install packages can show their contents too | 20:15 |
Venemo | hmm | 20:15 |
Venemo | btw | 20:15 |
*** etrunko_n900 has joined #maemo | 20:15 | |
BCMM | Venemo: they are in 7z format? | 20:15 |
DrGrov | How is it with the N900? Is there any way to use some kind of WLAN package sniffers? | 20:15 |
yipdw | BCMM: dpkg -L <deb file>, if you have the archive | 20:16 |
yipdw | no need to unzip | 20:16 |
Venemo | BCMM: no, but 7-Zip can open .debs, too | 20:16 |
DrGrov | Not thinking of using myself. More as a safety precaution. | 20:16 |
vldcnst | DrGrov: monitor mode is implemented. | 20:16 |
yipdw | or, rather, unbzip2, because that's what Debian archives typically are | 20:16 |
BCMM | Venemo: wikipedia says one can just use tar... | 20:16 |
Venemo | for me | 20:16 |
Venemo | I double click a .deb, and it opens | 20:16 |
BCMM | Venemo: ar, rather | 20:16 |
BCMM | Venemo: oh, is this on windows? | 20:16 |
DrGrov | vldcnst: oh, so it is possible to follow a specific WLAN and gather a swarm of information? | 20:16 |
yipdw | BCMM: yeah, Debian archives are tarballs | 20:16 |
BCMM | anyway, if there isn't such a site i may as well just install | 20:17 |
Venemo | BCMM: yes, I use Windows | 20:17 |
BCMM | since i'm only bothered due to my 'net connection being slow | 20:17 |
BCMM | Venemo: ah, that would explain not suggesting tar | 20:17 |

*** triplie has quit IRC | 20:23 | |
*** cure` has quit IRC | 20:24 | |
yipdw | vldcnst: some people dislike it because the system as a whole isn't really a paragon of consistency or architectural excellence | 20:25 |
yipdw | one example brought up by FreeBSD users is the lack of a unified kernel event notification system | 20:25 |
yipdw | (which FreeBSD has) | 20:25 |
BCMM | Venemo: didn't say you were... for a start, you're using maemo | 20:25 |
flailingmonkey | we are the root cause of the downfall of humanity of course | 20:25 |
BCMM | yipdw: people who dislike linux for that reason probably wouldn't go near windows... | 20:26 |
yipdw | that said, for many situations a Linux-based system is good enough | 20:26 |
*** crashanddie has joined #maemo | 20:26 | |
yipdw | BCMM: depends | 20:26 |
BCMM | i use linux pretty much exclusively, but i'd agree that freebsd is "theoretically" superiour in a number of ways | 20:26 |
BCMM | i especially admire their paranoia | 20:26 |
valdyn | being cleaner doesnt make it any more practical | 20:26 |
flailingmonkey | indeed, the design is practical not elegent | 20:27 |
Venemo | BCMM: true, but unfortunately, my work requires me to use Windows | 20:27 |
Venemo | I do plan to install Linux on a USB drive, though, for Maemo development :) | 20:27 |
*** kakashi_ has joined #maemo | 20:27 | |
BCMM | there was that xorg bug a while back, and IIRC it didn't effect freebsd | 20:27 |
yipdw | valdyn: in the case of kernel event notifications, that's not really true | 20:27 |
flailingmonkey | valdyn, for use perhaps not, but for development it definitely would be | 20:27 |
*** Dantonic has joined #maemo | 20:27 | |
yipdw | a cleaner design *is* more practical if you're waiting for notifications on various kernel events, e.g. I/O, process completion, process forking | 20:27 |
BCMM | not because they'd found it already, but because somebody had gone "i don't quite understand that bit, better change it in case" a few years back | 20:27 |
valdyn | yipdw: i didn't try to be specific to that thing, i dont even know what it is | 20:28 |

flailingmonkey | ouch | 20:28 |
BCMM | yipdw: so by a "unified kernel events system", you mean things like processes ending and inotify and so on would be integrated? | 20:28 |
*** konttori has quit IRC | 20:28 | |
yipdw | BCMM: yes | 20:28 |
BCMM | yipdw: that is kind of neat... | 20:29 |
yipdw | for example, to watch processes and I/O on Linux you'd have to use ptrace and select | 20:29 |

luke-jr | let's raid Nokia HQ | 20:29 |
luke-jr | bring your gnus! | 20:30 |
GAN900 | Woo | 20:30 |
yipdw | personally, I use a Linux system, not a FreeBSD system, because ATi's Catalyst drivers don't work on FreeBSD afaik | 20:30 |
yipdw | :P | 20:30 |
yipdw | and I need the OpenCL bits that fglrx provides but radeonhd does not | 20:30 |
yipdw | so yeah, priorities and needed features, etc. | 20:30 |
*** silbo__ has joined #maemo | 20:30 | |

*** N900evil has quit IRC | 20:31 | |
BCMM | yipdw: ati's catalyst drivers don't work, period... | 20:31 |
BCMM | yipdw: oh, sorry, you already said why you weren't using open drivers | 20:32 |
yipdw | BCMM: some parts do. in 10.5 the 3D bits work, but the 2D acceleration is crap | 20:32 |
BCMM | yipdw: looked at radeon as well as radeonhd? | 20:32 |
*** type_t has quit IRC | 20:32 | |
yipdw | BCMM: yeah | 20:32 |
yipdw | as far as I can tell, neither support the OpenCL extensions | 20:32 |
yipdw | but I could be wrong | 20:32 |
*** dl9pf_ has joined #maemo | 20:32 | |

*** cyborg-one has quit IRC | 20:34 | |
yipdw | luke-jr: but as my time with OpenCL is primarily spent learning and using the system, I find myself often in the situation where I don't have time to delve into the radeon/radeonhd drivers and do it | 20:34 |
Venemo | hmmm | 20:34 |
yipdw | (and it's not easy, for me at least, to justify e.g. funding for that sort of thing) | 20:34 |

yipdw | Wizzup: yeah, i was using whichever shipped with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS | 20:38 |
yipdw | (probably radeon) | 20:38 |
yipdw | 2D was fantastic, 3D/OpenCL didn't work though | 20:39 |
*** Venemo has quit IRC | 20:39 | |

*** avs has quit IRC | 20:41 | |
BCMM | yipdw: oh, radeon has seen a lot of improvement pretty recently | 20:42 |
BCMM | well, relitively | 20:42 |
yipdw | BCMM: yeah, it's gotten quite good | 20:42 |
*** kakashi_ has quit IRC | 20:42 | |
BCMM | yipdw: especially for 600/700 | 20:42 |
*** tearms has quit IRC | 20:43 | |
yipdw | the 2D in particular (as I mentioned) absolutely destroys what fglrx does | 20:43 |
yipdw | i.e. https://gist.github.com/869fcb0ff93fbedbf1f7 | 20:43 |
DrGrov | Anyone seen the D-THEME Night? | 20:43 |
DrGrov | No screenshot available on maemo.org... :/ | 20:43 |
BCMM | yipdw: i've been using kde desktop effects and even stuff like google earth on my Radeon HD 3870 | 20:43 |
BCMM | yipdw: then again, i've been compiling the xorg driver and mesa from git | 20:44 |
BCMM | and using kernel 2.6.34 | 20:44 |
yipdw | BCMM: oh, neat | 20:44 |
DrGrov | is there always used to be screenshots for themes? | 20:45 |
BCMM | yipdw: over the past 6 months or so, i've seen Google Earth go from quite glitchy to very smooth | 20:46 |
yipdw | BCMM: that's pretty slick; good indication that the radeon driver is progressing well | 20:47 |
BCMM | yipdw: yeah | 20:47 |
yipdw | I'd love to get involved with that but the time issue (as well as the fact that I haven't written a device driver for any platform in, uh, six years) prevents me from doing so | 20:47 |
BCMM | yipdw: i got the radeon instead of a new nvidia because the kernel driver was progressing so fast | 20:48 |
BCMM | yipdw: http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature | 20:48 |
BCMM | yipdw: makes it look like r600 and r700 are in similar states, so you should get the same sort of features i do | 20:49 |
*** sergio__ has quit IRC | 20:49 | |
yipdw | BCMM: well, kind of. Evergreen is the 5xxx family | 20:49 |
BCMM | yipdw: oh, i thought you had an r700, sorry | 20:49 |
yipdw | BCMM: yeah, i thought I did too and then I found out that Radeon HD 5850 is in the Evergreen/Cypress/whatever-they-called-it family | 20:50 |
yipdw | that said, Evergreen's not in a bad state | 20:50 |
BCMM | yipdw: opengl - WIP | 20:50 |
BCMM | yeah... | 20:50 |
*** Dantonic has quit IRC | 20:50 | |
yipdw | and the fact that they're working on accelerated video decoding is also very slick | 20:50 |
flailingmonkey | I think live backgrounds did make it, but haven't seen control panel they ask about in that email | 20:51 |
BCMM | yipdw: shouldn't be *that* long though, iirc AMD is helping, or at least cooperating | 20:51 |
yipdw | nice | 20:51 |
yipdw | yeah, that was one reason I went with ATI stuff | 20:51 |
yipdw | it's rough now, but it has far brighter prospects than NVIDIA wrt Linux, and I can put up with the WTFs caused by fglrx for now | 20:52 |
*** timeless_mbp1 has joined #maemo | 20:53 | |
BCMM | yipdw: yeah, previously: ATI can't do linux drivers right. Now: they still can't, but they've noticed they can't and they're cooperating with community drivers | 20:53 |
satmd | that's what the community asked them from the beginning | 20:54 |

benno2 | flailingmonkey, no. I am trying to debug what kind of audio device I have to open in order to achieve lower latency. if you run arecord -v file.wav then it prints some debug info on the console , like buffer size etc. it would be useful to get that info because I have no N900 herre ATM | 22:23 |

MohammadAG51 | the only thing / access is useful for is to download files through microb | 23:31 |
MohammadAG51 | actually | 23:31 |
MohammadAG51 | hildon-fm is fscked up | 23:31 |
MohammadAG51 | I couldn't copy to a USB stick with it | 23:31 |
mece | MohammadAG51, actually, hildon-fm would be nice for opening files too, if it had / access. | 23:31 |
MohammadAG51 | mount --bind / onto somewhere on media | 23:32 |
*** villemv has quit IRC | 23:32 | |
mece | anyway, bye. | 23:32 |
killefiz | lardman: how am I supposed to fsck the /home partition? | 23:32 |
MohammadAG51 | lol | 23:32 |
MohammadAG51 | reboot I guess | 23:32 |
MohammadAG51 | not sure if it works on maemo | 23:32 |
DocAvalanche | MohammadAG51: no!!! we already have enough BS on maemo | 23:32 |
*** mece has quit IRC | 23:33 | |
MohammadAG51 | but touch /forcefsck works on Ubuntu | 23:33 |
greenfly | only the superuser should be allowed to fsck | 23:33 |
*** igagis has quit IRC | 23:33 | |
lardman | killefiz: it will probably not make Hildon very happy, but ssh in, become root and umount the device | 23:34 |
lardman | at least that's what I'd try | 23:34 |
*** lpotter_ has joined #maemo | 23:34 | |
DocAvalanche | greenfly: and that's what exactly now? the postscriptum under the fsck manpage? | 23:34 |

*** msanchez has quit IRC | 23:35 | |
greenfly | the fsck command requires write access to that partition's device | 23:36 |
greenfly | (and of course read access) | 23:36 |
* DocAvalanche *yawn* | 23:36 | |
greenfly | if you have that level of access you can bypass any access control on the file system itself | 23:36 |
*** oilgame has quit IRC | 23:36 | |
killefiz | lardman: but what is that going to get me? I\m pretty sure that it's a hardware issue - don't you think? | 23:36 |
valdyn | killefiz: your paste is broken | 23:37 |
greenfly | *shrug* I thought this was common knowledge | 23:37 |
lardman | yeah, but it's probably just some part of the flash drive being knackered, so at least that would mark the region and let you get on with life | 23:37 |
* flailingmonkey came back | 23:37 | |
DocAvalanche | greenfly: so WHY do you quote it then?? | 23:37 |

valdyn | alterego: firefox is in ovi store. | 23:38 |
greenfly | DocAvalanche: someone talked about wanting to fsck /home as a user, and when I explained why that was a bad idea, you seemed to not understand, so I was trying to help explain why | 23:38 |
joga | how would you even fsck as a user? | 23:39 |
joga | especially your own home | 23:39 |
DocAvalanche | greenfly: that's not a bad idea, that's a silly idea as it simply won't work | 23:40 |
greenfly | joga: you'd have to have rw access to /dev/whatever | 23:40 |
joga | greenfly: but that's not really good :) | 23:40 |
greenfly | joga: agreed :) | 23:40 |
Arkenoi | file-roller conflicts with gnome-nettool | 23:40 |
joga | and you can fsck a read-only filesystem too, but not fix the errors | 23:40 |
joga | (a mounted one, I mean) | 23:40 |
DocAvalanche | jgfsck "your own home" is a meaningless statement. You can fsck volumes only | 23:41 |
joga | DocAvalanche, well I meant the filesystem where home resides on, in this case the flash | 23:41 |
joga | (or, a partition on the flash) ;) | 23:42 |
DocAvalanche | joga: fsck... | 23:42 |
DocAvalanche | joga: that filesystem is not "your own whatever" so this will fail | 23:42 |
killefiz | lardman: no - I want a working device - I paid 600 EUR for this thing | 23:42 |
*** jonne has quit IRC | 23:43 | |
DocAvalanche | joga: refer to a good howto about permissions under Unix | 23:43 |
killefiz | valdyn: what is wrong with it? Works fine for me - http://fpaste.org/vzPF/ | 23:43 |
flailingmonkey | tell him what the fsck flag is for read-only, so he can see if there are even any problems it would be able to fix | 23:43 |

alterego | Hiding the OS is a very good idea for normal users and it has a pretty similar UX to the symbian fm | 23:55 |
greenfly | *shrug* having a package to get you root easily available in a non-development repo I think is a good tradeoff with giving people who know the access they need, and acknowledging (by installing the package) that they have some sense of the implications | 23:56 |
greenfly | everyone else requires you to jailbreak stuff | 23:56 |
