smhar | I am seriously thinking about getting an N900 soon -could be tomorrow- , as I found a place where it sells it in installments with similar total as it is sold now locally here. I have an important question: how can I 1) backup the files to the computer and then restore it back, 2) how to sync the data -contacts, calender etc- with a local computer, not to online service? | 00:58 |
*** davyg has quit IRC | 01:00 | |
Nadley | kerio: i haven't this entry my menu didn't change with or without the app | 01:00 |
`0660 | smhar, ou would use Ovi Suite on Windows to do that | 01:01 |
kerio | smhar: what's your OS? | 01:01 |
smhar | `0660, kerio, oops, I forgot to mention, I am using debian squeeze | 01:02 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: 1) open URL "sftp://root@yourN900-IP:/" in your browser and copy / to local backup | 01:02 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer: after installing ssh | 01:02 |
DocScrutinizer | yes | 01:02 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer: how can you restore it though? | 01:02 |
DocScrutinizer | I wasn't going to explain each small detail, as he can't duplicate atm | 01:03 |
kerio | is there a real need to backup data if everything is synced to somewhere else? | 01:03 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: 2) that's a little bit complicated, depending on what you are using on your desktop PC | 01:03 |
SpeedEvil | smhar: there is 'backup' a nokia app on the phone that can backup to a SD card | 01:03 |
smhar | I am not a guru but I am not a total newbie | 01:04 |
smhar | :-) | 01:04 |
kerio | smhar: do you know how linux works? | 01:04 |
SpeedEvil | The SD card is the easiest way | 01:04 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: of course | 01:04 |
smhar | kerio, well enough for me, and learning more by the day | 01:04 |
kerio | then you're good | 01:04 |
kerio | buy it, it's amazing | 01:04 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: 'back up _to the computer_...' - that's for sure most easy via scp/sftp | 01:05 |
*** sobczyk has quit IRC | 01:05 | |
*** hannesw has joined #maemo | 01:05 | |
kerio | yeah but what good is a backup if you can't restore it anyway? | 01:05 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: well... I'm unsure how well that would work | 01:05 |
smhar | kerio, I love it already, my only concern is that it may have a short life :-) | 01:05 |
kerio | you can always buy another | 01:05 |
kerio | ;) | 01:05 |
*** h0n3st has quit IRC | 01:06 | |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer; data inconsistency issues and all | 01:06 |
SpeedEvil | A snapshot /home would be nice | 01:06 |
SpeedEvil | At USB2, it'd only be 100s | 01:06 |
smhar | Docscrutinizer, I am currently using thunderbird bu I am willing to switch to -almost- anything to be able to sync | 01:06 |
SpeedEvil | Doing it mounted raises data consistency issues though. | 01:07 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: highly unlikely, but ok you will need completely different methods then, which aren't really available ootb now | 01:07 |
SpeedEvil | indeed | 01:07 |
kerio | just backup your *data* as you would normally | 01:07 |
smhar | kerio, true, and this is what I've been doing with Nokia, for years | 01:07 |
kerio | it's a computer | 01:08 |
kerio | you don't backup your whole OS | 01:08 |
smhar | problem is, they are moving faster these days than before | 01:08 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: would you agree on a double backup and md5-compare the both gives extremely low probability of unnoticed inconsistencies? | 01:08 |
* SpeedEvil straps his n900 down otherwise it bounces off the walls. | 01:08 | |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: not quite. | 01:08 |
kerio | SpeedEvil: aw, my n900 must be broken then | 01:09 |
kerio | it just sits there | 01:09 |
kerio | no bouncing | 01:09 |
SpeedEvil | kerio: Turn on the GPS. | 01:09 |
kerio | huh? why? | 01:09 |
SpeedEvil | Mine bounces around 20km | 01:09 |
kerio | lol | 01:09 |
kerio | that's... not good | 01:09 |
SpeedEvil | Well - to be fair - that is cell positioning - which can be very broken | 01:09 |
kerio | oh, not gps then | 01:10 |
smhar | so what about the sync? | 01:10 |
kerio | well, i live in a city and cell positioning is incredibly accurate | 01:10 |
kerio | smhar: thunderbird on linux? | 01:10 |
SpeedEvil | smhar: I've never done sync, so I can't advise - don't use the n900 for email | 01:10 |
timetochange | why does the screen get brighter for a bit and then dark again before it turns off? | 01:10 |
kerio | why not? | 01:10 |
smhar | kerio, or anything else if necessary | 01:10 |
timetochange | im thinking it might have to do with that brightness applet | 01:11 |
kerio | smhar: what's your email provider? | 01:11 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: kerio got a point there. N900 is so much closer to a regular linux PC than you probably might think. Just consider how you'd do if it were a laptop and no "phone" | 01:11 |
smhar | SpeedEvil, it is for the contacts as well, I am adding many contacts daily, and I need the in my pc as well | 01:11 |
SpeedEvil | smhar: Well... | 01:11 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer: isync doesn't work for IM data of the contacts :( | 01:11 |
SpeedEvil | smhar: I have recieved one call on my n900... | 01:12 |
DocScrutinizer | timetochange: it gets brighter because you turned on the light or placed your finger somewhere off the ALS | 01:12 |
smhar | kerio, I am using my own email through a hosting company | 01:12 |
*** Veggen has quit IRC | 01:12 | |
kerio | smhar: does it support IMAP? | 01:12 |
kerio | because if it does, there's no need to sync emails | 01:12 |
*** Vanadis has quit IRC | 01:12 | |
kerio | and that's one big point there | 01:12 |
DocScrutinizer | kerio: uhuh. No idea what you're talking about | 01:12 |

*** benh has joined #maemo | 01:13 | |
*** Veggen has joined #maemo | 01:13 | |
smhar | SpeedEvil, I want to use it as my mail mobile, hoping that it will develop smart phones skills as well as pc skills, whatever those are | 01:13 |
kerio | well | 01:14 |
kerio | that may be a bit hard | 01:14 |
kerio | since it's not a smartphone | 01:14 |
smhar | kerio, yes and pop3 and almost everything :-0 | 01:14 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: the N900's contacs app can ex/import vcard | 01:14 |
DocScrutinizer | vcf | 01:14 |
kerio | smhar: use IMAP and email is kept syncronized | 01:14 |
kerio | export/import vcards to sync contacts | 01:15 |
DocScrutinizer | kerio: IMAP seems unreliable or broken on N900 | 01:15 |
kerio | or install Bluetooth DUN on the n900 and use syncml through bluetooth | 01:15 |
smhar | SpeedEvil, s/mail mobile / main mobile | 01:15 |
kerio | that's kinda standard | 01:15 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer: not a big email user | 01:15 |
* SpeedEvil wishes someone would fix sync. | 01:16 | |
kerio | and if everything craps out, i can just open gmail.com with the browser | 01:16 |
SpeedEvil | But it's a huge project | 01:16 |
smhar | kerio, smart phone is all about software | 01:16 |
kerio | SpeedEvil: what's broken about sync? | 01:16 |
kerio | smhar: the n900 is not a smartphone | 01:16 |
kerio | it's a computer | 01:16 |
SpeedEvil | kerio: That is - fix sync by implementing one protocol among 'all' opensource things where it would make sense. | 01:17 |
Nadley | I have tried to make a screencast on my device with the load applet but I can read it, it is a avi file | 01:17 |
crashanddie | piss off with that argument? | 01:17 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: you can use several other mail-agents on N900 (heard of claws for example). Alas integration to contacts database is gone then | 01:17 |
smhar | kerio, still it lacks -in the software side- many 'basic feature' of a modern phone, that will come by time | 01:17 |
kerio | SpeedEvil: doesn't it sync somewhat nicely with that open cloud service? | 01:18 |
kerio | i'm syncing it with google contacts through my computer as of now | 01:18 |
trem | nite all, sweet dreams | 01:18 |
kerio | i could enable mail for exchange | 01:18 |
kerio | but meh | 01:18 |
Nadley | kerio: how do you sync with google contacts I want to do the same | 01:19 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: don't buy N900 based on a bet on future development | 01:19 |
smhar | kerio, I do not use google contacts and I do not plan to, | 01:19 |
kerio | Nadley: isync on osx | 01:19 |
smhar | docscrutinizer, why? | 01:19 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: check if you can find to get it in a shape so you can do the things you need right now | 01:19 |
Nadley | kerio: ok I'm on linux | 01:20 |
kerio | then you need to sync it through the n900 itself | 01:20 |

DocScrutinizer | smhar: you'll be amazed what this nice little thing actually can do | 01:21 |
*** thopiekar has quit IRC | 01:21 | |
kerio | i guess nokia is just waiting for the opensource developers to reverse-engineer *everything* by themselves | 01:21 |
*** C-S-B has quit IRC | 01:22 | |
kerio | so they don't actually have to, you know, *do* stuff | 01:22 |
DocScrutinizer | smhar: no, but you'll never know when or if at all a particular function will be available | 01:22 |
smhar | docscrutinizer, in addition to finally having a really linux phone.. ok computer | 01:22 |
Nadley | kerio: I know about Mfe but I don't know if it will sync all data about my contacts | 01:22 |
smhar | but this is very strange, N900 is a linux 'computer, and it can not sync with another linux computer, | 01:24 |
smhar | funny is both are debian | 01:24 |
*** user____ has joined #maemo | 01:24 | |
DocScrutinizer | well debian means nothing at all | 01:25 |
*** user____ is now known as egerpaul | 01:25 | |
smhar | I know, but it is just funny, to me | 01:25 |
kerio | thunderbird on debian will happily sync with thunderbird on n900 if you tell him to | 01:25 |
DocScrutinizer | even on debian you can have gnome on one laptop and KDE on your desktop box | 01:25 |
DocScrutinizer | kerio: exactly | 01:25 |
Nadley | kerio: thunderbird on n900? | 01:26 |
*** panaggio has quit IRC | 01:26 | |
DocScrutinizer | dunno, has somebody ported it meanwhile? | 01:26 |
kerio | Nadley: it probably exists somewhere | 01:26 |
smhar | kerio, but the N900 contacts are not stored in TB for N900 | 01:26 |
kerio | if it doesn't, easy debian and install it there | 01:26 |
DocScrutinizer | depends where YOU store them, obviously ;-D | 01:27 |
DocScrutinizer | but no, maemo doesn't use TB to store phone contacts | 01:27 |
kerio | maemo's contact system is great for IM | 01:27 |
smhar | docscrutinizer, :-( | 01:28 |
DocScrutinizer | I think I heard it's loosely based on evolution | 01:28 |
smhar | I do not think it was a difficult thing for Nokia, or maemo developers to make it a bit more open | 01:28 |
kerio | smhar: a lot can be said about nokia's openness | 01:29 |
smhar | docscrutinizer, If I use evolution in linux, can I syn? | 01:29 |
DocScrutinizer | http://wiki.maemo.org/Sync | 01:30 |

jacekowski | i doubt that charger chip can take that | 03:25 |
MohammadAG | http://mohammadag.ucoz.com/zImage-fb-omap1.bin timetochange | 03:26 |
MohammadAG | that, in theory, should work | 03:26 |
timetochange | okay, use it the exact same way? | 03:26 |
MohammadAG | (i.e it should work with the existing modules) | 03:26 |
MohammadAG | but it won't automagically fix your device :) | 03:26 |
MohammadAG | yeah | 03:26 |
psycho_oreos | its probably deliberately set like that :) like all the same old nokia phones, never allow you to run off ac power without a battery.. unless you have an ancient/hacked nokia phone | 03:26 |
MohammadAG | flasher-3.5 -k zImage-fb-omap1.bin -f -R | 03:26 |
timetochange | instead of -F? | 03:26 |
timetochange | cause it is 1.7megs instead 170some | 03:27 |
salman_ | does maemo have a standard/open source/ documented storage for the address book/contacts, calender, notes etc? | 03:27 |
jacekowski | psycho_oreos: power consumption of phone is higher than charger can take | 03:27 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, dunno, DocScrutinizer is the EE here and I asked him to look at the pretty graphs in the charger datasheet, and he said something like "can't see why not" to the question if charger could supply system power | 03:27 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, it's only a kernel image | 03:27 |
*** mikhas has quit IRC | 03:27 | |
timetochange | I used -F before | 03:27 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: it's using battery to keep voltage stable | 03:27 |
ShadowJK | We can stabilize power consumption a bit by turning off wifi and cellmo and keeping screen on (steady constant load) | 03:28 |
ShadowJK | Yeah that's also my concern | 03:28 |
psycho_oreos | jacekowski, bleh | 03:28 |
ShadowJK | But the situation is much better than with N8x0 | 03:28 |
ShadowJK | There's an actual regulator inside the charging circuitry this time | 03:28 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, -F for fiascos, -k for kernel images | 03:28 |
jacekowski | any change in load and charger can start doing strange things | 03:28 |
jacekowski | and other thing is | 03:29 |
DocScrutinizer | hallyn: actually I did a first quick & dirty test yesterday. Seems device continues at least 1s after removing battery, until BME (?) notices the change and hard shuts down the system | 03:29 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: i think it's charger chip | 03:29 |
timetochange | okay i see text now | 03:29 |
timetochange | but its dark as shit and goes fast | 03:29 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: i mean - it's designed to deliver constant current | 03:29 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: it can't so starts to raise to voltage untill charge termination voltage | 03:30 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: why should charger chip shut down when cell is removed. It wouldn't even know how to detect | 03:30 |
*** z4chh has joined #maemo | 03:30 | |
ShadowJK | We can program the charger to do this: Charge at 1250mA, reduce charging current to keep voltage below 4.2V. So, as long as the consumption is below 1250mA, the charger chip will be trying to maintain 4.2V as good as it can.. | 03:30 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, you're thinking nimh | 03:30 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: nope, it's designed to provide a cureent-limited voltage-limited power | 03:30 |
timetochange | what do I do MohammadAG, I can't see what it says right before it reboots... | 03:30 |
ShadowJK | nimh is charged with constant current until negative or zero deltaV | 03:31 |
jacekowski | well, we can use i2cset to tell charger whatever we want | 03:31 |
ShadowJK | and that'd basically overvolt on battery removal :) | 03:31 |
jacekowski | and stop bme | 03:31 |
DocScrutinizer | yes | 03:32 |
DocScrutinizer | I'll do that in a minute | 03:32 |
DocScrutinizer | stay tuned | 03:32 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, get a camcorder :) | 03:32 |
timetochange | seriously? | 03:32 |
jacekowski | but i don't believe that charger chip can keep voltage stable to keep phone running | 03:32 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, well, there's no way to slow it down so :) | 03:32 |
ShadowJK | Yeah my plan would be to disable termination in charger, set current to max, step up regulation voltage until the flow into the empty battery is as close to 0 as possible, and then try swap | 03:32 |
timetochange | I don't have one.....spent all my cash on n900 | 03:33 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, that's what I would do anyways | 03:33 |
MohammadAG | oh :/ | 03:33 |
ShadowJK | (shutdown wifi, bluetooth, cellmo before the attempt) | 03:33 |
timetochange | it seems to be happening a bit after the text stops | 03:33 |
timetochange | like when the dots are going back and forth | 03:33 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: it can deliver 1050mA. Thant's enough in the most cases | 03:33 |
timetochange | yeah, so xorg starts | 03:34 |
DocScrutinizer | and for sure it's stable enough | 03:34 |
timetochange | dots going back and forth...... | 03:34 |
timetochange | *RESTART* | 03:34 |
ShadowJK | DocScrutinizer, I thought it could do 1250? | 03:34 |
DocScrutinizer | err, not sure | 03:34 |
timetochange | wait, it doedsn't do it at a consistent time | 03:34 |
timetochange | it is doing it sooner and sooner now | 03:35 |
timetochange | now it got through to xorg again | 03:35 |
timetochange | MohammadAG, any ideas? | 03:35 |
DocScrutinizer | timetochange: what's your problem? | 03:36 |
timetochange | sometimes it restarts right after it gets to camera which is after a line called USER | 03:36 |
timetochange | DocScrutinizer my phone doesn't work at all out of nowhere | 03:36 |
timetochange | phone app would unexpected quit so i rebooted | 03:36 |
timetochange | and it hasnt booted since | 03:36 |
* DocScrutinizer sighs | 03:36 | |

*** salman_ has quit IRC | 03:37 | |

timetochange | well, just the kernel part | 03:37 |
timetochange | I'd rather not lose everything | 03:37 |
DocScrutinizer | timetochange: and please STOP experimenting NOW | 03:37 |
DocScrutinizer | ok, you flashed jernel with empty or weak battery | 03:38 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: i'm not worried about current as such, but is it able to react fast enough with changes of load | 03:38 |
DocScrutinizer | now you borked system, and it probably won't charge anymore | 03:38 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: and because everything in there is switchmode load will change quite fast | 03:38 |
timetochange | I didn't experiment with anything | 03:38 |

*** oKtosiTe has quit IRC | 03:39 | |
DocScrutinizer | timetochange: you just mentioned you repeatedly tried to boot it, which runs battery even more flat | 03:39 |
jacekowski | well, emergency charge should kick in | 03:40 |
timetochange | yeah, I have no idea how much battery i have and when i plug it in it just continually reboots | 03:40 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: for some reason it doesn't | 03:40 |
jacekowski | so it's not flat enough for emergency charge | 03:40 |
timetochange | so if I reflash the whole thing, what all will i lose? | 03:41 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: seems emergency charge is just enough to make a *working* system boot. But it's not enough for NOLO to finish a good flash | 03:41 |
*** panaggio has joined #maemo | 03:41 | |

timetochange | few what? | 03:41 |
timetochange | all the customizations I've done? | 03:41 |
ShadowJK | I think what happens is that emergency charge is enough to boot nolo, and nolo then kills the charge and boots the system, and fail | 03:41 |
MohammadAG | that and apps | 03:41 |
DocScrutinizer | some apps you need to reinstall, some desktop settings | 03:41 |
jacekowski | hmm, it looks like there is a quite huge cap on vbus | 03:42 |
ShadowJK | don't flash emmc | 03:42 |
timetochange | well I really need to use the phone | 03:42 |
jacekowski | and if schematics is accurate in that matter | 03:42 |
timetochange | maybe R&D mode? | 03:42 |
* MohammadAG needs to dump his rootfs | 03:42 | |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: sure | 03:42 |
timetochange | can i see exactly where it reboots with that? | 03:42 |
jacekowski | it might be enough to run wireless of it | 03:42 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, you could try to disable the watchdog, if an apps is killing X or something | 03:43 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: we'll learn in a short while | 03:43 |
timetochange | that would make it repeatedly reboot? | 03:43 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, you want to run wifi without battery? | 03:43 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: well, that cap is big enough to to possibly power 3g | 03:43 |
DocScrutinizer | the problem is you are running emergency mode here in channel, so I can't finish my test :-P | 03:43 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, flasher-3.5 --enable-rd-mode --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset | 03:44 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, well I wouldn't risk it | 03:44 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, my goal would just be to change the battery quickly | 03:44 |
jacekowski | i'm saying possibly because i'm not sure how much voltage drop can phone take | 03:44 |
ShadowJK | 2.8 | 03:44 |
DocScrutinizer | timetochange: how far does boot proceed, how long does it take til reboot? | 03:44 |
jacekowski | but if it will get charged to 4.1 | 03:45 |
DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: please don't hurry | 03:45 |
timetochange | well it is confusing because sometimes it only gets to right after "USER" I see a few seconds of camera or something | 03:45 |
MohammadAG | DocScrutinizer, i gave him a framebuffer enabled kernel, it should show where it reboots | 03:45 |
timetochange | but it usually gets past xorg | 03:45 |
timetochange | where the dots go back and forth | 03:45 |
timetochange | yep, props to MohammadAG | 03:45 |
DocScrutinizer | ok, dudes, I see you'll feature it out | 03:45 |
DocScrutinizer | ttyl | 03:45 |

MohammadAG | timetochange, that's part of R&D mode | 03:48 |
timetochange | oh | 03:48 |
MohammadAG | N900: The keyboard backlight behind the left and right side of the keyboard flickers in response to system activity. | 03:48 |
jacekowski | ideally if kernel would provide just emergency charging | 03:48 |
timetochange | i dont see anything | 03:48 |
timetochange | it got to the blinking dots for a sec | 03:48 |
timetochange | and i think it shut off | 03:48 |
jacekowski | so kernel starts charging @100mA | 03:48 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, check the lights, if they're off it's off | 03:48 |
jacekowski | and then BME takes over | 03:48 |
MohammadAG | hmm | 03:49 |
jacekowski | and in case of BME failure OS shouldn't reboot | 03:49 |

MohammadAG | timetochange, heh, np :P | 03:50 |
timetochange | what do you recommend now | 03:50 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: and nolo kills it | 03:50 |
timetochange | so next time i reboot i dont have this again | 03:50 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: so if you have that reboot problem you can't charge | 03:51 |
ShadowJK | mm :/ | 03:51 |
MohammadAG | next time you reboot it will boot up, just find out why dsme is trying to reboot it | 03:51 |
timetochange | you disabled the watchdog? | 03:51 |
MohammadAG | yes | 03:51 |
jacekowski | tbh on device like that | 03:51 |
timetochange | maybe ill run health check | 03:51 |
Macer | no-charging - Disables charging via USB. BME will still running in background. | 03:51 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: aha. Any detailed analysis why that is ? | 03:51 |
timetochange | haha the keyboard blinking is actually pretty l33g | 03:51 |
Macer | english fail | 03:51 |
timetochange | t | 03:51 |
MohammadAG | not really recommended, but it's the software watchdog | 03:51 |

*** ruskie has joined #maemo | 03:51 | |
MohammadAG | Macer, lol someone edited that, I had it written correctly iirc | 03:51 |
timetochange | oh, still get "internal error, phone application closed" | 03:52 |
Macer | :) | 03:52 |
timetochange | cant use phone yet | 03:52 |
ShadowJK | software watchdog - it reboots device if "critical" programs fail? | 03:52 |
MohammadAG | Macer, i guess it's missing a be :p | 03:52 |
MohammadAG | ShadowJK, yes | 03:52 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: that's wrong | 03:52 |
MohammadAG | hildon-desktop is "critical" | 03:52 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: it should be done differently | 03:52 |
Macer | and possibly an "in the" | 03:52 |
MohammadAG | Macer, feel free to edit it | 03:52 |
MohammadAG | I just cba right now :P | 03:53 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, what is wrong? | 03:53 |
jacekowski | kernel should be able to provide emergency set of features on device like that | 03:53 |
Macer | haha | 03:53 |
DocScrutinizer | yeah exactly | 03:53 |
jacekowski | so you can still make a phone call | 03:53 |
Macer | i can edit it? | 03:53 |
MohammadAG | oh and by USB it should say microUSB | 03:53 |
jacekowski | if everything else fails | 03:53 |
MohammadAG | Macer, doh :p | 03:53 |
DocScrutinizer | can't follow your chaos | 03:53 |
* ptl dizzy | 03:53 | |
Macer | i dont think i actually have a maemo.org acct :) | 03:53 |
jacekowski | it's bad design in terms of stuff that would have to go into kernel | 03:53 |
MohammadAG | Macer, make one | 03:53 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: then go ahead write a kernel with X | 03:53 |
ShadowJK | Oh actually | 03:53 |
MohammadAG | Macer, ugh, lazy, I'll edit it myself | 03:53 |
Macer | MohammadAG: maybe when i get home. i have a killer headache now | 03:53 |
*** gaveen has quit IRC | 03:53 | |
ShadowJK | Now I remember | 03:54 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: well, there is KMS already | 03:54 |
MohammadAG | flasher-3.0? LOL | 03:54 |
psycho_oreos | can you enable r&d mode without reflashing the fiasco? or is it a necessity to flash with it? | 03:54 |
ShadowJK | the default regulation voltage is 3.7V, but the flashing process wants nearly full battery... so it might not be nolo fucking it up, but the default charge params fucking it up | 03:54 |
ShadowJK | no you don't need to flash with it | 03:54 |
psycho_oreos | ShadowJK, was that directed to me? ta | 03:55 |
Macer | hahaha | 03:55 |
Macer | sorry | 03:55 |
MohammadAG | does anyone recall what both lights on the side refer to? | 03:55 |
MohammadAG | Macer, edited | 03:55 |
MohammadAG | one's for kernel messages, can't recall what the other one is | 03:55 |
* DocScrutinizer back to TV, it's too demanding to follow this discussion(s) | 03:55 | |
jacekowski | MohammadAG: on keyboard? | 03:55 |
MohammadAG | jacekowski, yes | 03:55 |
ShadowJK | (charger can unattended, unprogrammed, bring voltage up to 3.7, but nolo refuses to flash below some unknown voltage higher than 3.7) | 03:55 |
jacekowski | MohammadAG: i had that after i put it in R&D mode | 03:56 |
jacekowski | just r&d without any flags | 03:56 |
MohammadAG | jacekowski, yes, I know, I'm just wondering what each of the lights refer to | 03:56 |
MohammadAG | again, one is for kernel messages | 03:56 |
ShadowJK | the initfs in N8x0 was more robust :) | 03:56 |
MohammadAG | can't remember what the other is for | 03:56 |
ShadowJK | But people whined and it got removed :( | 03:56 |
MohammadAG | "No initfs \o/" <- meh | 03:56 |
MohammadAG | (says that in nolo btw) | 03:57 |
ShadowJK | lol | 03:57 |
jacekowski | reboot shouldn't be only method to recover after failure | 03:57 |
DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: jacekowski isn't in the mood to listen/read today. As it seems you aren't | 03:57 |
MohammadAG | DocScrutinizer, err? | 03:57 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: ??? | 03:57 |
ShadowJK | wtf? | 03:57 |
jacekowski | i'm listening to one of many touhou versions | 03:58 |
timetochange | http://pastebin.com/sAgzSJQf okay, did a dmesg | 03:58 |
timetochange | seems like phone is the only app that wont start - crashes right away | 03:59 |
timetochange | is there a way to try to start phone from the command line to see why it wont start? | 03:59 |
jacekowski | yes | 03:59 |
jacekowski | start commandline | 03:59 |
timetochange | root? | 03:59 |
jacekowski | and start phone app | 03:59 |
jacekowski | no | 03:59 |
timetochange | "start phone app" | 03:59 |
timetochange | really? | 03:59 |
timetochange | not very linuxy | 03:59 |
jacekowski | i said what you have to do | 04:00 |
jacekowski | not how to do it | 04:00 |
ShadowJK | lol | 04:00 |
timetochange | oh | 04:00 |
timetochange | that's what i was asking | 04:00 |
jacekowski | start phone app isn't going to work | 04:00 |
timetochange | how do you start from cmdline | 04:00 |
ShadowJK | I'd investigate dsme's dir in /var | 04:00 |
timetochange | lol | 04:00 |
ShadowJK | I don't remember where it is :s | 04:00 |
ShadowJK | Oh, /var/lib/dsme/ | 04:00 |
ShadowJK | cat the files in there | 04:00 |
MohammadAG | <jacekowski> start phone app isn't going to work | 04:00 |
MohammadAG | what he said | 04:00 |
MohammadAG | rtcom-call-ui is the binary afaik | 04:01 |
ShadowJK | /var/lib/dsme/stats/ | 04:01 |
jacekowski | my idea for error handling would be that it tries to restart failed "service" | 04:01 |
jacekowski | then it fails back to emergency mode | 04:01 |
MohammadAG | if it fails, it should stfu | 04:01 |
jacekowski | falls back* | 04:01 |
jacekowski | and notifies user | 04:02 |
jacekowski | not just reboots in middle of call | 04:02 |
*** z4chh has quit IRC | 04:02 | |
ShadowJK | I was positively surprised that the device doesn't reset when you reach such low battery level (after having killed bme) that cellmo no longer works :) | 04:02 |
jacekowski | or in middle of boot | 04:02 |
MohammadAG | indeed | 04:02 |
timetochange | for stats | 04:02 |
MohammadAG | ShadowJK, yeah, cellmo shuts down first, then the rest of the device follows | 04:02 |
timetochange | "read error: is a directory" | 04:02 |
MohammadAG | when the cellmo shuts down I just halt the device quickly | 04:02 |
timetochange | er wait | 04:03 |
timetochange | newb moment | 04:03 |
MohammadAG | lol | 04:03 |
DocScrutinizer51 | timetochange: remove SIM | 04:03 |
DocScrutinizer51 | then reboot | 04:03 |
timetochange | I've lifeguard resets and lifeguardreboots .bak for both | 04:03 |
jacekowski | that's why ideally kernel should keep all phone functionality separate from everything else | 04:03 |
timetochange | DocScrutinizer did you miss it i got it booted! | 04:03 |
ShadowJK | timetochange, lifeguardreboots | 04:03 |
jacekowski | and if phone functionality fails then it can reboot | 04:04 |
jacekowski | everything else is not critical and it should try to recover | 04:04 |
ShadowJK | dude | 04:05 |
ShadowJK | IRC is critical | 04:05 |
DocScrutinizer51 | timetochange: have you noticed I usually think about what suggest | 04:05 |
ShadowJK | phone is less critical :) | 04:05 |
MohammadAG | LOL | 04:05 |
jacekowski | irc is safe on screen on my server | 04:05 |
timetochange | okay it lists browser as 1, lidon-desktop as 1, hildon home as 8, a few othe rminor ones, and camera-ui as 44, systemui at 243, and mafw-lastfm 360 (uninstalled that a long time ago) | 04:05 |

timetochange | hah | 04:06 |
timetochange | how could you tell | 04:06 |
ShadowJK | timetochange, is that lifeguardreboots or lifeaguardresets | 04:06 |
jacekowski | i don't think so | 04:06 |
MohammadAG | I'm just pinging him | 04:06 |
timetochange | restarts* | 04:06 |
jacekowski | he's just an idiot | 04:06 |
ShadowJK | timeless, the reboots is more interesting | 04:06 |
ShadowJK | lifeguard_reboots | 04:06 |
timetochange | resets shows systemui: 23 | 04:07 |
MohammadAG | wrong tab? | 04:07 |
timetochange | there is just restarts and resets | 04:07 |
ShadowJK | oh | 04:07 |
ShadowJK | Right, so it's systemui that crashes | 04:07 |
timetochange | hmm, and phone must depend on that?... | 04:08 |
ShadowJK | I'm not sure hwat systemui does, it's maybe the thing that appears when you press powerbutton | 04:08 |
MohammadAG | it shouldn't reboot the whole damn device | 04:08 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: besides, irc depends on phone | 04:08 |
MohammadAG | ShadowJK, yes | 04:08 |
jacekowski | i really like qubes design | 04:08 |
MohammadAG | that's not critical! | 04:08 |
jacekowski | http://qubes-os.org/ | 04:08 |
jacekowski | something like that but in smaller scale | 04:08 |
MohammadAG | killall systemui doesn't reboot the menu afaik | 04:08 |
MohammadAG | s/menu/device/ | 04:09 |
infobot | MohammadAG meant: killall systemui doesn't reboot the device afaik | 04:09 |
jacekowski | so every part is separate in terms of security as well | 04:09 |
*** t0rrentday has left #maemo | 04:09 | |
ShadowJK | Maybe it does actually need several restarts before it becomes a reboot :) | 04:09 |
timetochange | rtcom-call-ui just returns and does nothing btw | 04:09 |
jacekowski | nah | 04:10 |
jacekowski | killall -9 systemui | 04:10 |
jacekowski | and it restarted | 04:10 |
ShadowJK | try: while true; do killall -11 systemui ; sleep 1 ; done | 04:10 |
jacekowski | and it looks like it was dsme job | 04:11 |
ShadowJK | (that wasn to jacekowski) | 04:11 |
ShadowJK | -n | 04:11 |
timetochange | I'm running healthcheck a while | 04:11 |
ShadowJK | no offence to its author, but healthcheck is mostly a toy in this circumstance :D | 04:11 |
timetochange | I can see that | 04:11 |
jacekowski | qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped | 04:11 |
jacekowski | oh ffs | 04:11 |
timetochange | so was that the real name of the phone app MohammadAG? | 04:13 |
Macer | lego harry potter | 04:14 |
MohammadAG | lol | 04:14 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, yes, rtcom-call-ui is the phone app's name | 04:15 |
MohammadAG | systemui is the menu that pops down | 04:15 |
MohammadAG | assuming it shouldn't reboot, I'd purge and reinstall systemui | 04:15 |
timetochange | okay, well if i try that in the terminal | 04:15 |
timetochange | it just returns | 04:15 |
timetochange | doesnt try to boot phone app | 04:15 |
MohammadAG | yeah I noticed that here too | 04:15 |
timetochange | how do I reinstall system UI? | 04:15 |
MohammadAG | same with rtcom-messaging-ui | 04:16 |
MohammadAG | apt-get --reinstall install systemui | 04:16 |
Macer | timetochange: why dont you just reflash and start from scratch? | 04:16 |
Macer | seems easier | 04:16 |
timetochange | should i back anything up first? | 04:16 |
MohammadAG | for systemui? no, it's just one menu | 04:16 |
ShadowJK | For reflash: yes | 04:16 |
timetochange | well I trust that MohammadAG has correctly determined the problem to be with systemui, Macer | 04:16 |
Macer | timetochange: well. just saying | 04:17 |
Macer | there may be other underlying issues | 04:17 |
ShadowJK | Things that modify systemui? :) | 04:17 |
Macer | just throwing that out there :) | 04:17 |
ShadowJK | But yeah, reflash is easiest | 04:17 |
timetochange | well it must have been modified by something else in the first place.. | 04:17 |
ShadowJK | unless you want to save data, in which case you'd backup and then flash :D | 04:18 |
timetochange | couldnt find package systemui? | 04:18 |
*** Brazza has joined #maemo | 04:18 | |
Macer | i mean. all this time you have been fiddling around.. you'd have been done reflashing and reinstalling a long time ago | 04:18 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, ShadowJK did, not me :) | 04:18 |
timetochange | no way, I've a lot of shit on here .....i should probably back up right now | 04:18 |
*** murrayc__ has joined #maemo | 04:18 | |

MohammadAG | hmm | 04:19 |
MohammadAG | sec | 04:19 |
*** jonne|reconnecte has joined #maemo | 04:19 | |
Macer | then go to settings and use the backup app | 04:19 |
Macer | reflash | 04:19 |
Macer | restore | 04:19 |
MohammadAG | k | 04:20 |
MohammadAG | osso-systemui | 04:20 |
MohammadAG | is the package name for /usr/bin/systemui | 04:20 |
MohammadAG | so apt-get --reinstall install osso-sytemui | 04:20 |
* Macer marks time | 04:20 | |
MohammadAG | err | 04:20 |
MohammadAG | systemui | 04:20 |
DocScrutinizer | err SIM | 04:21 |
timetochange | well it worked | 04:21 |

Macer | hahahaha | 04:24 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: dude, don't you think I could know what I'm talking about | 04:24 |
*** h0n3st has joined #maemo | 04:24 | |
timetochange | oh, you're still recommending sim removal? | 04:25 |
Macer | there is always option b and c... ask a neighbor to use their phone or find a pay phone | 04:25 |
timetochange | I tried that several times when it didnt boot | 04:25 |
ShadowJK | Well since removing SIM is a very unintuitive method of making a phone call, you should probably elaborate as to why this would help :) | 04:25 |
*** timeless_mbp has quit IRC | 04:25 | |
Macer | ShadowJK: LOL | 04:25 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: I diagnosed a case of instant phoneui crash to a root cause of a garbled contact in SIM storage | 04:25 |
timetochange | well maybe if i could start the phone from command line i could see what the problem is | 04:26 |

*** timeless_mbp has joined #maemo | 04:26 | |
DocScrutinizer | and now just go on with bashing my recommendations, while I get my popcorn | 04:26 |
Macer | timetochange: im telling you. just use the backup app and back up your stuff and reflash it and restore it.. takes 10 mins .. longer than ive been back watching you try to find out how to fix what sounds like a ruined phone | 04:26 |
timetochange | MohammadAG, do you think after reinstalling systemui i should reboot for changes to take effect? | 04:26 |
timetochange | okay Macer, now that I've it booted and I've backed up | 04:27 |
timetochange | I won't lose anything, right? | 04:27 |
ShadowJK | DocScrutinizer, so the conclusion would be that he can't make a call with that Sim in N900? | 04:27 |
Macer | that is like asking a surgeon if you are going to die | 04:27 |
timetochange | i can actually open the contacts program and edit contacts | 04:27 |
Macer | fear is the mind killer | 04:27 |
Macer | pee into the wind | 04:27 |
timetochange | I'm not longer fearful now that I've backed up | 04:28 |
timetochange | but I'm curious what that backup doesn't cover | 04:28 |
MohammadAG | timetochange, you should reboot to see if it worked | 04:28 |
MohammadAG | also, disable R&D mode to see that it _ACTUALLY_ worked | 04:28 |
MohammadAG | anyways | 04:28 |
*** shinkamui has joined #maemo | 04:28 | |
MohammadAG | that would fix boot up issues, but not phone startup ones | 04:28 |
MohammadAG | I suggest you reflash | 04:29 |
ShadowJK | reflash wouldn't fix sim storage, right | 04:29 |
timetochange | i might as well try to reboot first though eh | 04:29 |
timetochange | (derp of course the menu doesnt come down when i push power button) | 04:30 |
LiraNuna | how do I target an existing Qt project to build for N900? | 04:31 |
jacekowski | besides, that's a good question why there is script for upstart that handles reboot when bme fails | 04:31 |
jacekowski | but dsme itself can take care of that itself | 04:31 |
timetochange | yeah menu doesnt come down and phone still closes | 04:32 |
jacekowski | just flash it | 04:32 |
*** kamui__ has quit IRC | 04:32 | |
timetochange | okay | 04:32 |
timetochange | what doesn't the backup cover? | 04:32 |
timetochange | i mean, obvious stuff | 04:33 |
jacekowski | i think it's only covering contacts, calender and stuff | 04:33 |
jacekowski | calendar | 04:33 |
timetochange | yeah, it is that 'stuff' part that I'm unclear about | 04:33 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, i think it's in the bme upstart script itself | 04:33 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: i know | 04:33 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: but why | 04:33 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: if there is dsme that has capabilities to do it | 04:34 |
jacekowski | ShadowJK: and it's doing it for other processes | 04:34 |
ShadowJK | ah | 04:34 |
ShadowJK | on N8x0 dsme did it | 04:34 |
ShadowJK | but I'm guessing someone moved it to upstart at some point :) | 04:35 |
jacekowski | on n900 there is upstart script that tells dsme to reboot device | 04:35 |
ShadowJK | I vaguely recall reading the N900 bme upstart script | 04:36 |
ShadowJK | But what is responsible for doing stuff when bme dies? upstart? | 04:36 |
jacekowski | upstart detecs that bme died | 04:36 |
ShadowJK | right | 04:36 |
jacekowski | and tells dsme to reboot | 04:36 |
ShadowJK | Ok, now I follow :) | 04:37 |
jacekowski | bme doesn't register watchdog with dsme | 04:37 |
jacekowski | and as you said previous version was doing that | 04:37 |
ShadowJK | So someone wanted to run bme without dsme, or someone familiar with upstart started attempt to deprecate dsme and got no further than bme.. | 04:37 |
jacekowski | well, bme is constantly talking to dsme anyways | 04:38 |
LiraNuna | I'm trying to use OpenGLES/2 with Qt4 on N900 | 04:38 |

LiraNuna | oh, there's an actual channel for development? | 04:39 |

*** hcm has quit IRC | 05:26 | |
jacekowski | because i just found message 0x311 that's sent from bme to dsme | 05:27 |

jacekowski | but there is no reference to it in my files | 05:27 |

ShadowJK | ye | 05:55 |
* ShadowJK wonders why it doesn't work under regular bme | 05:56 | |
jacekowski | fuel gauge | 05:56 |
DocScrutinizer51 | ShadowJK: btw of course bat must be charging when you stop bme :-D | 05:56 |
ShadowJK | eh, why? | 05:56 |
jacekowski | that probably detects that there is something wrong with battery | 05:56 |
jacekowski | and bme kills phone | 05:56 |
DocScrutinizer51 | ShadowJK: bme detects bat removal (BSI) | 05:57 |
ShadowJK | I was "why" at "bat must be charging" | 05:57 |
ShadowJK | But in asking that question I assumed that after stopping bme you would configure bq24150 to maximum current and disable termination | 05:58 |
DocScrutinizer51 | ShadowJK: I did none of these | 05:58 |
timetochange | --set-rd-flags=yes-lifeguard-reset | 05:58 |
timetochange | is how you turn it back on right? | 05:58 |
timetochange | for flasher | 05:59 |
DocScrutinizer51 | just reduced system requirements to <100 | 05:59 |
ShadowJK | hm | 05:59 |
ShadowJK | think it could do 200? | 05:59 |
DocScrutinizer51 | maybe 200 | 05:59 |
ShadowJK | (enough to display a friendly dialog) | 05:59 |
DocScrutinizer51 | but I thought emergency charge are 100 | 06:00 |
*** lbt has quit IRC | 06:00 | |
*** dockane_ has joined #maemo | 06:00 | |
DocScrutinizer51 | I know it's emergency as solid BRIGHT yellow | 06:01 |
ShadowJK | Well, if you kill bme, bq24150 will continue at bme programmed rate of, most likely, 950, for 32sec. After that it will revert to defaults, and since bme has tickled usb, the otg line will be active, which will enable 550mA | 06:01 |
*** mva has joined #maemo | 06:01 | |
timetochange | how do I turn lifeguard back on? | 06:01 |
timetochange | had this before $ sudo flasher --enable-rd-mode --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset | 06:01 |
ShadowJK | 550 because it's the default, lowest, rate | 06:02 |
DocScrutinizer51 | ShadowJK: and if bq isn't charging while bat removal, then it's too slow | 06:02 |
DocScrutinizer51 | ShadowJK: take some sleep | 06:03 |
ShadowJK | What is too slow? | 06:03 |
*** dockane has quit IRC | 06:04 | |
DocScrutinizer51 | hmm maybe I really should | 06:04 |
DocScrutinizer51 | starting up from no charge to emergency charge or whatever | 06:04 |
*** xeor has quit IRC | 06:05 | |
ShadowJK | It basically works as long as your system is ok | 06:05 |
DocScrutinizer51 | you got no more than 32s after stop bme to remove cell | 06:05 |
Termana | timetochange, sudo flasher --clear-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset --disable-rd-mode | 06:05 |
*** lopz has joined #maemo | 06:05 | |
ShadowJK | Oh, how come? | 06:05 |
ShadowJK | grrr, my N900 battery is too full to test right now :) | 06:06 |
DocScrutinizer51 | otherwise hard shutdown | 06:06 |
DocScrutinizer51 | hehehe | 06:06 |
*** lbt has joined #maemo | 06:06 | |
DocScrutinizer51 | discharging is just too easy I've been told | 06:06 |
ShadowJK | yeah well, they don't have mugen ;) | 06:07 |
DocScrutinizer51 | I suggest 5min call with speakerphone | 06:07 |
ShadowJK | (new thread of conversation) what's up with DrinkCounter anyway, it's like someone very drunk had coded it | 06:08 |
DocScrutinizer51 | don't forget to talk or fart or... whatever though. otherwise no TX :-P | 06:08 |
*** MacDrunk has joined #maemo | 06:08 | |
ShadowJK | My own battery draining recipie consists of GPSJinni, distributed.net and gpodder downloading a few gigabytes of youtub over 3g ;p | 06:08 |
* DocScrutinizer51 wonders if tmo would be right place for me to spread the news :-D | 06:09 | |
ShadowJK | My record is at about 1100mA drain | 06:09 |
Termana | Rather backwards. No battery draining strategies are now needed. | 06:09 |
DocScrutinizer51 | should suffice :) | 06:09 |
Termana | Now battery* | 06:09 |
ShadowJK | Termana, that's easy, just turn it off | 06:09 |
Termana | Funny how a typo can change a sentence to mean something else :\ :P | 06:10 |
DocScrutinizer51 | ShadowJK: don't forget to STOP the hogs before you attach charger and stop bme | 06:10 |
* DocScrutinizer51 starts pondering about micro USB dongle with a small NiMH cell stack, to deliver 500mA for 60s. Rechargable over boost mode | 06:12 | |
timetochange | finally flashed, not sure rsync completely backed it up though | 06:12 |
DocScrutinizer51 | think I'll sell the patent | 06:12 |

redeeman | have anyone made progress reverting to the standard PR 1.1.1 virtual keyboard? | 11:51 |
Macer | redeeman: i honestly never thought about it but you are right the older one was way better for some reason | 11:52 |
MiXu- | why do you even use the vkeyboard :) | 11:52 |
* kerio has never seen the vkeyboard | 11:53 | |
Macer | it's good for quick stuff | 11:53 |
redeeman | because its good | 11:53 |
MiXu- | I've used it maybe 5 times | 11:53 |
Macer | heh | 11:53 |
Macer | opera has its own :) | 11:53 |
MiXu- | HW-keyboard ftw | 11:53 |
Macer | MiXu-: sometimes if all you have to say in an im is "ok"then the vkb is a litle more practical | 11:54 |
MiXu- | ok, I get that. But still opening the slide only takes half a second. | 11:54 |
ZogG | i use vkeyboard for non english purposes | 11:54 |
MiXu- | and that's how long it takes for vkeyboard to come up :) | 11:55 |
kerio | i like the slide open anyway | 11:55 |
kerio | it's easier to hold it, that way | 11:55 |
MiXu- | same here | 11:55 |
DocScrutinizer | kerio: sure, why shouldn't you be able to change SIM when you got battery removed. Anyway I told you to switch off the GSM, so it's not a big surprise when it works | 11:55 |
Macer | maybe if it had portrait mode the vkb would make a little more sense ;) | 11:55 |
MiXu- | yes | 11:56 |
Macer | you can one hand msgs | 11:56 |
MiXu- | was it so that opera has a portrait mode vkb? | 11:56 |

MiXu- | There's some stuff in N900 that they could have dropped in favor of doing something more useful(tm). | 11:58 |
Macer | MiXu-: like portrait mode? :) | 11:58 |
DocScrutinizer | kerio: read backscroll | 11:58 |

MiXu- | Like the virtual keyboard in it's current form. | 11:58 |

MiXu- | Macer: The portrait mode is useful in browser. I like that. | 11:58 |
DocScrutinizer | http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog | 11:58 |
Macer | MiXu-: i kind of figured portrait mode was good for desktop widgets too | 11:59 |
Macer | otherwise you do this awkward wrist rotation flip thing out the pocket | 11:59 |
MiXu- | yeah | 12:00 |
MiXu- | N900 is not the best device ergonomics wise | 12:00 |
*** bergie has quit IRC | 12:00 | |
Macer | no portrait media player sucks really bad | 12:01 |
MiXu- | There's some majorly useless stuff in the Settings. Like the notification led settings :D | 12:01 |
Macer | again with the awkward wrist flipping | 12:01 |
Macer | there is an add-on to change the color of the led | 12:01 |
Macer | that comes in handy | 12:01 |
MiXu- | I'm pretty sure 95% of people couldn't care less about how the led works. As long as it works. :) | 12:02 |
Macer | you can change how it blinks and what color depending on what kind of thing it is | 12:02 |
Macer | well...i like the led | 12:02 |
MiXu- | I like it too. But it's enough for me in it's original form. | 12:03 |
MiXu- | Facebook desktop widget is also completely useless. | 12:03 |
kerio | that's external, isn't it? | 12:04 |
MiXu- | Hmm. Could be actually. | 12:04 |
MiXu- | Then there's chess and mahjong... :P | 12:05 |
MiXu- | and RSS | 12:05 |
kerio | someone needs to break in the nokia HQ and steal the full source code btw | 12:05 |

Termana | When I read people saying the n900 doesn't have enough apps on tmo, I have to start to wonder - is all the desktop linux apps plus apps ran through usermode qemu and WINE, and then all the ones in the repo, not enough apps? | 12:53 |
Termana | Or are they saying there isn't enough useless apps available? | 12:54 |
jacekowski | well, wine on n900 with qemu is slow | 12:54 |
jacekowski | so that's useless | 12:54 |
jacekowski | desktop apps are desktop apps | 12:55 |
jacekowski | and are quite hard to use as well | 12:55 |
Surfa | wouldn't consider any emulator solution suitable for typical user | 12:55 |
*** S-Wo has joined #maemo | 12:55 | |
Termana | Meh. I just don't think its straight cut, "there isn't enough apps" | 12:55 |

*** tearms has quit IRC | 12:58 | |
Termana | People wouldn't say their desktop "doesn't have enough apps" - and when you have most desktop apps with a Debian chroot, I just don't think your LOSING functionality. Sure some of its harder to use, being more suited to the desktop. But its still there if its needed. | 12:59 |
*** S_WO has quit IRC | 12:59 | |
Surfa | people do use emulators and chroots on desktop with some effort, but on a handheld? you gotta be kidding me right? | 12:59 |

Termana | Surfa, what's wrong with using a chroot on a handheld? | 13:01 |

smhar | since the data storage for the address book/contacts, calender, notes etc of N900 are standard/open source/ documented, it is possible to develop a python program that reads them, and 'compare' them with linux desktop version, thus synchronizing them. can someone please correct me or confirm this please? | 13:49 |
*** hurbu has joined #maemo | 13:50 | |

smhar | alterego, I am planning to buy an N900 today, and I will use it for many things including learning python. this could be a good target project to use for learning python; a gui application to sync N900 with linux. could be easier to use than opensync | 13:55 |
alterego | A GUI wrapper for opensync would be nicer, written in Python :) | 13:56 |
MiXu- | I'm not sure what opensync is exactly for, but if it's SyncML, there's already SyncEvolution gui client for N900. | 13:57 |
crashanddie | MohammadAG: np | 13:57 |
smhar | alterego, from my readings so far and asking here, it seems the only way to sync contacts with linux is using syncevolution which is not as simple as using the windows Nokia Suite | 13:58 |
alterego | MiXu-: I think the do similar things. | 13:58 |
MiXu- | yeah, probably | 13:58 |

crashanddie | spec? | 14:58 |
alterego | Not yet, it's actually at my parents, should be receiving it during the week | 14:59 |

crashanddie | ah :) | 14:59 |
*** Termana has quit IRC | 15:00 | |
crashanddie | you do realise for just a couple hundred more, you get a bike that'll last you over a decade? | 15:00 |
crashanddie | alterego: gears? | 15:00 |
alterego | My dad actually got it, so I know not a lot about it at all. Alu frame; got some road tires for it. No suspension but I've never been too fussed with that. | 15:00 |
*** FIQ has quit IRC | 15:00 | |
alterego | Not sure, I'm guessing 21 | 15:00 |
crashanddie | nha, suspension isn't needed if you're not going to do mountainbiking | 15:00 |
alterego | Yeah | 15:00 |
crashanddie | even I'm a pretty avid single tracker, and have no suspension | 15:00 |
*** andrei1089 has quit IRC | 15:01 | |
alterego | It is a mountain style frame and bars | 15:01 |
*** joa_ has quit IRC | 15:01 | |
alterego | So I might get some bars as I'm more comfortable cycling with my hands side on tbh | 15:01 |
crashanddie | the problem is that between the loss of power you get with a cheapo suspension, and the price you have to fork out for good suspension (count between 250 and 500 quid for a good suspension fork), it's usually a lot better and cheaper to go for no suspension | 15:01 |
alterego | Yeah | 15:02 |
alterego | adds a lot of weight, the cheap ones do. | 15:02 |
*** frals has joined #maemo | 15:02 | |
alterego | tbh, I wouldn't have cared if it was a crappy 4th hand 50 quid purchase, I just want to get back on the road :D | 15:03 |
crashanddie | plus, you can have all the suspension in the world, if you don't know how to absorb shocks by yourself (our knees and elbows are actually pretty good), you'll end up with a broken back | 15:03 |

alterego | Well, about 8 miles out | 15:03 |
crashanddie | dunno about cmbr, but in London, you can actually go to auctions the met police holds for stolen bikes | 15:03 |
alterego | Yeah, they do that here too :) | 15:04 |
crashanddie | you can get a good 300 quid bike for roughly 60-100 | 15:04 |
crashanddie | it's where I got a cheapo push bike for commuting in the city (from train station to work) | 15:04 |

crashanddie | well, whenever you're interested in getting a good bike, feel free to start a topic on tmo | 15:05 |
crashanddie | I'd be happy to chime in | 15:05 |
*** joa_ has joined #maemo | 15:06 | |
alterego | Cool, I've got a mate who used to work in a bike shop. He knows a lot and has given me good advice in the past. He personally tends to go for bikes that are about 2 grand though and custom built by him :D | 15:06 |
*** The_Tall1 has joined #maemo | 15:06 | |
alterego | And then he complains when they get stolen ... | 15:06 |
crashanddie | (FYI, I'm more in favour of "solid and durable" rather than "cutting edge and expensive". For example, I have a single chain with the gears inside the rear hub. Prevents derailing, and prevents a lot of breakage when doing single track | 15:06 |
*** jerhum has joined #maemo | 15:07 | |
alterego | I think he said that he's had 6 bikes stolen, totelling something like 15 grand in total. And he's only ever had one found and returned. | 15:07 |
alterego | Even though they're all pretty unique :/ | 15:07 |
crashanddie | then he needs to use a lock? | 15:07 |
alterego | Hahah, he needs to stop getting pissed and leaving the bikes locked outside of pubs :P | 15:08 |
alterego | Locks to crap all round here, | 15:08 |
alterego | I think Cambridge is one of the worst places to live when it comes to bike theft :D | 15:08 |
crashanddie | meh, I've parked my (good) bike in London plenty of times, even in rough areas, and the worse I had stolen was my saddle | 15:08 |
alterego | They're quick with their bolt cutters pikey bastards .. | 15:08 |
crashanddie | bolt cutters won't go through a good SRA-approved lock | 15:08 |
crashanddie | but yeah, it means you have to push 150 quid on a lock | 15:09 |
alterego | Hah | 15:09 |
alterego | And how heavy would that lock be? :P | 15:09 |
crashanddie | relatively heavy | 15:09 |
crashanddie | price also pays for cheaper materials | 15:09 |
crashanddie | s/cheaper/lighter/ | 15:09 |
infobot | crashanddie meant: price also pays for lighter materials | 15:09 |
alterego | I've got a dlock, stops them walking off with it but it wouldn't hold up against a bolt cutter :D | 15:10 |
alterego | So I don't plan on leaving my bike unattended in places where it's likely to get stolen ... | 15:10 |

joa_ | that apt-get update issue : can it be caused by the wifi connection somehow ? | 15:12 |
crashanddie | I use a hardened steel u-lock, won't go through it with a bolt cutter | 15:12 |
crashanddie | maybe using the old pipe trick, or jack, and obviously power tools | 15:13 |
joa_ | (I'm sorry to bother you with this but I'm in deep ****, I have to write a report on a project for tomorrow and can't even compile my app to make some screenshots ...) | 15:13 |
crashanddie | alterego: if you can, invest in an o-lock | 15:14 |
alterego | joa_: ah, last minute woes, I remember those :P | 15:14 |
alterego | crashanddie: I'll keep it in mind, money is a little tight at the moment. | 15:14 |
crashanddie | alterego: try to imagine how handcuffs work. The lock slides across the closing buckle, which means that as you tighten the lock, you remove space for any other thief to insert their tools | 15:14 |
crashanddie | this is probably the most secure lock around as we speak | 15:15 |
alterego | crashanddie: I've never thought of it like that, but yeah, that'sgood food for thought. | 15:15 |
crashanddie | only power tools will go through it | 15:15 |
crashanddie | alterego: well, worse that bolt cutters is the old pipe trick I spoke of. They take a bike metal pipe of 3 meters or something, and just twist the lock to shit | 15:16 |
crashanddie | (usually damaging the bike too) | 15:16 |
crashanddie | err, "a big metal pipe" | 15:16 |

crashanddie | alterego: get a u-lock or o-lock for the back-wheel and frame (most expensive, roughly 30 quid), then a cable lock (simple cable, 10 quid) that you lock your front wheel, and pass through your saddle too. Attach that to the u-lock, and you're safe. | 15:21 |

alterego | It ran off of an on board battery that lasts about a month | 15:27 |
alterego | And it would probably fit into an area under your saddle, or inside the actualy frame quite easily .. :) | 15:27 |
alterego | It also had temperature sensors, would be cool if you could plug in a GPS, though that's pushing it a bit far :) | 15:28 |

*** panaggio has joined #maemo | 15:29 | |
kpel | depends on the NW density | 15:29 |

alterego | Trizt: yeah, well, if you using Python+PyQt/PySide, I actually just edit the files directly on the device and run them on the device. | 17:01 |
Trizt | change font size from 10 to 9, makes a litte difference on the computer, on the n900 it's like half the size | 17:01 |
lcuk | RST38h, also, in qt phonon - there is a yuv->rgb conversion shader, taking data in main memory i assume and showing it as a texture within 3d world. if it can give you any hints to get what you need: http://qt.gitorious.com/qt/qt/blobs/master/src/3rdparty/phonon/gstreamer/glrenderer.cpp#line213 | 17:02 |

RST38h | lcuk: No, this is not what I need... | 17:09 |
*** h0n3st has quit IRC | 17:09 | |
lcuk | ok RST38h | 17:09 |
RST38h | lcuk: What I need is draw to a large texture (1024x512) using GLES | 17:09 |
RST38h | lcuk: And then show just a PART of this texture to the user | 17:09 |
lcuk | ok, so the texture will be modified once per frame | 17:09 |
lcuk | by your flatland code (like mine) | 17:10 |
RST38h | lcuk: Alternatively, this can probably be done without textures if I have direct access to the off-screen rendering buffer | 17:10 |
lcuk | and then presented | 17:10 |
RST38h | lcuk: the key part there is "drawing to the texture with GLES" | 17:10 |
derf | We do this for Fennec somehow. | 17:10 |
RST38h | moo, derf | 17:11 |
RST38h | I have so far found two ways to do this: | 17:11 |
RST38h | 1) Frame Buffer Objects (found in GLES extensions) - my program will not link, as it does not find the proper functions (like GenFramebuffersOES()) in GLES_CM | 17:11 |
RST38h | 2) EGL piximages, used as textures - I am forced to create a new context for the pixmap, and attempts to use pixmaps from that context for textures in my main context seem to fail | 17:12 |
lcuk | RST38h, i draw to a texture using a shader | 17:13 |
lcuk | phonon draws to a texture using a shader | 17:13 |
RST38h | lcuk: As I said, it is not exactly the same thing | 17:13 |
RST38h | No shader here. | 17:13 |
lcuk | perhaps the shader is the part you need to get it working ? :) | 17:13 |
RST38h | No, not really. | 17:13 |
lcuk | to push your data onto the texture? | 17:14 |
derf | FBO is the "normal" way to do this. | 17:14 |
RST38h | No shader will render arbitrary GLES primitives for me :) | 17:14 |
alterego | What GLES primitives? | 17:14 |
RST38h | derf: strings libGLES_CM.so |grep GenFramebuffersOES shows me that the function is there | 17:14 |
lcuk | does gles have primatives? | 17:14 |
alterego | You have to use shaders to render anything using GLES .. | 17:14 |
RST38h | derf: But the linker does not find it | 17:14 |
*** gunboat has joined #maemo | 17:14 | |
RST38h | lcuk: polygones, lines, points, textured or not. | 17:14 |
*** noobmonk3y has joined #maemo | 17:14 | |
alterego | You have to use shaders, that's if you're using GLES 2, I think you can use dumb OpenGL implementation with GLES 1.x | 17:15 |
* RST38h would rather not spend time explaining the difference between GLES 1.1 and GLES 2.0 and why shaders have nothing to do with using plain GLES functions to draw stuff | 17:15 | |
*** krutt has quit IRC | 17:15 | |
alterego | RST38h: well, what are you using? GLES 1 or 2? | 17:15 |
RST38h | GLES 1.1 (libGLES_CM.so) | 17:16 |
lcuk | RST38h, not askign you to, but everywhere i looked primatives are said to not work and most everything has to be done with shaders - hence my and alterego's mentioning | 17:16 |
alterego | Okay, and you're using old school style primitives? glVertex3f() functions and stuff? | 17:16 |
RST38h | No | 17:16 |
* MohammadAG slaps noobmonk3y with a lcuk | 17:16 | |
*** krutt has joined #maemo | 17:17 | |
RST38h | I am using glDrawArrays() and friends | 17:17 |
lcuk | RST38h, :) happy to hear it then | 17:17 |
alterego | RST38h: okay, cool. | 17:17 |
alterego | And you've bound your texture? | 17:17 |
RST38h | alterego: derf is absolutely correct - it has to be done with FBOs | 17:17 |
lcuk | misconception #1 DELETED | 17:17 |
* noobmonk3y giggles | 17:17 | |

*** lopz has quit IRC | 17:18 | |
noobmonk3y | hey hey! | 17:18 |
alterego | Yes, you are right .. | 17:18 |
derf | Unfortunately the patches to enable all of this stuff in Fennec are in some random bug that I can't find. | 17:18 |
alterego | Otherwise you'd have to upload yoru texture every frame. | 17:18 |
RST38h | The next suggested method is EGL eglCreatePbufferSurface() but it does not seem to work either | 17:18 |
alterego | Hah | 17:18 |
derf | I thought pbuffers were going away. | 17:18 |
RST38h | alterego: EGL allows you to bind existing pbuffer to a texture | 17:19 |
alterego | RST38h: what do you use to create your rendering context? | 17:19 |
RST38h | derf: Maybe they were, but the Maemo GLES implementation still has them | 17:19 |
RST38h | aterego: I am getting my main (displayable) context from SDL_GLES | 17:19 |
alterego | Right, okay. | 17:19 |
RST38h | alterego: As for the pbuffer context, I am using eglChooseConfig+eglCreateContext | 17:20 |

RST38h | Doing it during initialization | 17:20 |
*** BluesLee has quit IRC | 17:21 | |
alterego | Do you have a GL context at that point? | 17:21 |
RST38h | yes | 17:21 |
alterego | As in, is it selected? | 17:21 |
RST38h | ? | 17:21 |
alterego | Or whatever you'd call it .. | 17:21 |
RST38h | Well, the SDL makes its context current | 17:21 |
alterego | Well, GL functions only work if your GL context is current. | 17:21 |
*** kamui has quit IRC | 17:22 | |

alterego | Or is that area | 17:26 |
RST38h | alterego: it is the area | 17:26 |
derf | Right, so your pixmap is incompatible with the context. | 17:26 |
RST38h | 2pr is the circumference | 17:26 |

*** n900evil is now known as SpeedEvil | 18:57 | |
kerio | i'm serious, "just charge" is a joke | 18:58 |
timeless_mbp | is this 1.2 or older? | 18:58 |
timeless_mbp | the thing to keep in mind is that usb's limited charging (0.1amp) isn't enough to actually really charge your n900 | 18:58 |
timeless_mbp | well, it will, if you wait forever | 18:59 |
kerio | timeless: 1.2 | 18:59 |
timeless_mbp | unless you're watching youtube or something | 18:59 |
timeless_mbp | so… the n900 has to agree with the host to provide a service | 18:59 |
timeless_mbp | what it's supposed to do in certain circumstances is say "hey, i'm a mass storage device, but oh, i don't have any storage today" | 18:59 |
kerio | it shows as a N900 (iSync) here | 18:59 |
timeless_mbp | which is a clever way of tricking the host into giving it 0.5 amps instead | 19:00 |
kerio | (osx's system profiler) | 19:00 |
timeless_mbp | err | 19:00 |
* timeless_mbp looks for a micro usb cable | 19:00 | |
*** lsm5 has joined #maemo | 19:00 | |
timeless_mbp | and you said your n900 was on? | 19:01 |
* timeless_mbp presses the power key on an n900 running 1.2 | 19:01 | |
kerio | n900 on, i connect it with nokia's usb cable, tap out of the dialogue box to select "just charge | 19:02 |
kerio | " | 19:02 |
kerio | then i open "nokia multimedia transfer" | 19:02 |
kerio | and i can browse the device | 19:02 |
*** Termana has quit IRC | 19:02 | |
SpeedEvil | open with what | 19:03 |
kerio | my laptop | 19:03 |
kerio | os x | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | he's running os x | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | i'll deal w/ him | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | so, first of all | 19:03 |
* kerio feels like a pariah | 19:03 | |
timeless_mbp | your criteria for understanding "mass storage" is wrong | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | open file manager on the n900 | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | if you can see Document, Images, etc | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | then you aren't using mass storage | 19:04 |
kerio | i'm not using mass storage | 19:04 |
kerio | i'm using nokia's weird isuite protocol | 19:04 |
kerio | but i shouldn't be | 19:04 |
timeless_mbp | why? | 19:04 |
kerio | because i chose "just charge" | 19:04 |
kerio | and not pc suite | 19:04 |
timeless_mbp | why the heck do you care? | 19:04 |
timeless_mbp | there are only two modes on the n900 | 19:04 |
*** trbs has joined #maemo | 19:05 | |
timeless_mbp | mass storage and everything-else | 19:05 |
kerio | then why does it let me pick between *three* modes? | 19:05 |
timeless_mbp | there are only two buttons... | 19:05 |
kerio | i can choose "just charge" | 19:05 |
kerio | and it shows as "just charge" in the status menu | 19:05 |
timeless_mbp | fwiw, my n900 running pr 1.2 when i tapped out gave me N900 (Storage Mode) in System Profiler.app | 19:06 |
timeless_mbp | w/ nothing mounted | 19:06 |
timeless_mbp | my n900 says its current state: charging | 19:06 |

*** mikhas has quit IRC | 19:06 | |
kerio | afaik it doesn't install extensions | 19:07 |
kerio | it's just a program | 19:07 |
timeless_mbp | what's the name again? | 19:07 |
kerio | nokia multimedia transfer | 19:08 |
SpeedEvil | it was iirc showing up as a camera | 19:08 |
SpeedEvil | pictbridge | 19:09 |
timeless_mbp | The Nokia device “N900 (Storage Mode)” is currently connected in a USB mode not supported by Nokia Multimedia Transfer or iSync. | 19:09 |
*** Chewtoy has quit IRC | 19:09 | |
SpeedEvil | some can do browse fs | 19:09 |
timeless_mbp | ok, so now it's running (kinda) | 19:09 |
timeless_mbp | tapping out still gave me storage mode | 19:10 |
SpeedEvil | new in 1.2? | 19:10 |
*** smhar has quit IRC | 19:10 | |
timeless_mbp | SpeedEvil: i can't recall, but at some point we cheated | 19:10 |
timeless_mbp | it's storage mode w/ 0 volumes | 19:10 |
SpeedEvil | yeah | 19:10 |
timeless_mbp | all the power, none of the data :) | 19:10 |
SpeedEvil | see above | 19:10 |
SpeedEvil | ... removable disk | 19:11 |
kerio | nope, still shows as pc-suite mode here | 19:11 |
kerio | :/ | 19:11 |
* SpeedEvil sighs. | 19:11 | |
timeless_mbp | so err | 19:11 |
timeless_mbp | how the heck do i use this multimedia transfer thing? | 19:11 |
SpeedEvil | pictbridge clit | 19:11 |
kerio | menu on top, tools, device browser | 19:11 |
SpeedEvil | client | 19:11 |
Macer | there is someone outside in front of a liquor store making people feel bad for their sins hahahaha | 19:11 |
kerio | SpeedEvil: freudian slip huh | 19:12 |
lcuk | Macer, then move on :P | 19:12 |
lcuk | you cant change everyones mind | 19:12 |
timeless_mbp | nope | 19:12 |
timeless_mbp | i just get this stupid transfer setup dialog | 19:12 |
SpeedEvil | typing too fast | 19:12 |
timeless_mbp | what version are you using? | 19:12 |
kerio | oh, it wants to know all about your device | 19:12 |
kerio | that little bitch | 19:12 |
kerio | 1.4.2 (8192) | 19:13 |
Trizt | spy ware | 19:13 |
Macer | lcuk: i was in my condo | 19:14 |
timeless_mbp | hrm, Nokia Device Browser v1.9 (6304) | 19:14 |
Macer | i was hearing him on a bullhorn | 19:14 |
* timeless_mbp loves the totally incompatible version numbers | 19:14 | |
*** SunilGhai has quit IRC | 19:14 | |
Macer | :) it was funny | 19:14 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: oh, i was talking about multimedia transfer | 19:14 |
SpeedEvil | I've found how to easily read the n900 when sitting in the sun. | 19:14 |
Macer | speaking of multimedia... i need to copy some shows over to my phone | 19:14 |
SpeedEvil | It involves a really large towel. | 19:14 |
Macer | i'm glad the n900 has enough power to play xvids | 19:15 |
Macer | the n810 wasn't so good at it | 19:15 |
timeless_mbp | i think i have 1.4(.0) | 19:15 |
lcuk | i should do that decoding power consumption test | 19:15 |
SpeedEvil | power and storage. | 19:15 |
lcuk | i still transcode videos if im going somewhere | 19:15 |
lcuk | ever hopeful that lower res / simpler decoding will give me a longer battery life | 19:16 |
SpeedEvil | well... | 19:16 |
SpeedEvil | the dsp supported stuff is so much cheaper | 19:16 |
timeless_mbp | kerio: how did you get 1.4.2? | 19:16 |
timeless_mbp | http://www.nokiausa.com/get-support-and-software/software/nokia-multimedia-transfer/download# claims to offer 1.4(.0) | 19:16 |
*** siriusa has joined #maemo | 19:17 | |
timeless_mbp | and it offers it in a .zip file, because that's how real mac users expect all their apps to be delivered | 19:17 |
* timeless_mbp sighs | 19:17 | |
* Nadley has is own funambol server but sync it is not as I would like :s | 19:17 | |

timeless_mbp | ... | 19:20 |
timeless_mbp | anyone here in the usa wanna do me a favor and call nokia care? | 19:20 |

kerio | apparently i can't enable mass storage mode | 19:21 |
Mandavar | Hello everyone | 19:21 |
kerio | something is using it | 19:21 |
timeless_mbp | (it should be a +1800 call… but i'll pay for the coffee) | 19:21 |
Macer | isn't nokia care a toll free number? | 19:21 |
kerio | but i don't know wtf it is | 19:21 |
* kerio reboots | 19:21 | |
timeless_mbp | kerio: well, what's running? | 19:21 |
kerio | nothing | 19:21 |
Macer | wow you seriously have some issues with your phone | 19:21 |
timeless_mbp | open xterminal and use lsof | 19:22 |
timeless_mbp | it's probably the Camera :) | 19:22 |
kerio | nope, camera is closed | 19:22 |
Mandavar | does anyone know where conversations stores its chatlogs? | 19:22 |
timeless_mbp | (that likes to leave a file handle open) | 19:22 |
timeless_mbp | define "closed" | 19:22 |
kerio | oh i see | 19:22 |
timeless_mbp | did you use the camera today? | 19:22 |
*** Izzeh has quit IRC | 19:22 | |
timeless_mbp | because the camera is -stupid- | 19:22 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: doesn't show on the dashboard, lid is closed | 19:22 |
kerio | that's why i'd expect it to be closed, really | 19:22 |
timeless_mbp | that doesn't mean the software isn't running | 19:22 |
kerio | :) | 19:22 |
timeless_mbp | users… expectations... | 19:22 |
timeless_mbp | never the twain shall meet | 19:22 |
kerio | yeah... | 19:22 |
*** crashanddie has joined #maemo | 19:23 | |
timeless_mbp | but you didn't answer the question... | 19:23 |
timeless_mbp | did you use it today? | 19:23 |
kerio | yeah | 19:23 |
kerio | i did | 19:23 |
timeless_mbp | that should be your culprit | 19:23 |
kerio | damn | 19:23 |
kerio | i knew i shouldn't've used it | 19:23 |
lcuk | huh | 19:23 |
timeless_mbp | open xterminal (ctrl-shift-x) | 19:23 |
timeless_mbp | killall camera-ui | 19:23 |
Mandavar | but what use is it if you don't use it? | 19:23 |
timeless_mbp | ooh, 1.4.2 knows about my n900 | 19:24 |
timeless_mbp | this app might not be totally useless | 19:24 |
timeless_mbp | (1.4.0 was absolutely useless) | 19:24 |
kerio | wait, what | 19:24 |
kerio | ctrl+shift+x opens the terminal? | 19:24 |
Mandavar | yes | 19:24 |
Mandavar | unless you changed it to do something else of course ;) | 19:24 |
kerio | yay, storage mode | 19:24 |
lcuk | which bit of camera software breaks mass storage? i use camera lots and also usb storage often to then copy some photos off after taking | 19:24 |
lcuk | i dont think ive ever seen the mass storage not available? | 19:25 |
timeless_mbp | lcuk: not sure, i think it might be video | 19:25 |
lcuk | i do both | 19:25 |
timeless_mbp | but basically one of the modes leaves an open file handle for the last snap | 19:25 |
timeless_mbp | and thus you can't unmount because it's in use | 19:25 |
lcuk | maybe if i was recording | 19:25 |
timeless_mbp | which breaks mass storage | 19:25 |
lcuk | sure | 19:25 |
timeless_mbp | this is after the user has closed the ui! | 19:25 |
timeless_mbp | as far as the user is concerned, it's done | 19:25 |
lcuk | but it doesnt happen all the time | 19:26 |
Mandavar | maybe file a bug report about it? | 19:26 |
* kerio is the user | 19:26 | |
timeless_mbp | Mandavar: i think i did | 19:26 |
lcuk | well i was just gonna ask for an nb# | 19:26 |
timeless_mbp | dunno, lcuk can certainly check | 19:26 |
timeless_mbp | internal/external, *shrug* | 19:26 |
lcuk | heh | 19:26 |
*** crashanddie has quit IRC | 19:26 | |
* timeless_mbp sighs | 19:26 | |
timeless_mbp | Nokia Device Browser is such a PoS | 19:27 |
timeless_mbp | it violates so many conventions, i'm not sure where to start | 19:27 |
lcuk | can be an mb# if you like | 19:27 |
Mandavar | on a totally unrelated note: anyone knows where conversations stores the chatlogs? | 19:27 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: open the activity monitor | 19:28 |
kerio | sort by cpu | 19:28 |
kerio | and do something with nokia multimedia transfer | 19:28 |
timeless_mbp | you're scaring me | 19:28 |
*** vanadismobile has joined #maemo | 19:28 | |
timeless_mbp | i'm more annoyed that cmd- clicking the title area of Nokia Device Browser doesn't work | 19:29 |
timeless_mbp | (and that the title area doesn't reflect the folder i'm looking at w/ icon) | 19:29 |
*** otubo[AFK] has quit IRC | 19:29 | |
timeless_mbp | eh | 19:30 |
timeless_mbp | how hard is it to respond to cmd-q | 19:30 |
* timeless_mbp kicks the **** out of NDB | 19:30 | |
timeless_mbp | kerio: so, afaict nokia multimedia transfer has changed it from useless empty storage to pcsuite mode | 19:31 |
kerio | the sad thing is that iphoto doesn't know about my tags and/or geotags | 19:31 |
timeless_mbp | that doesn't seem like the wrong thing at all | 19:31 |
timeless_mbp | kerio: try picasa? | 19:31 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: it's the wrong thing | 19:31 |
timeless_mbp | hrm | 19:32 |
timeless_mbp | why? | 19:32 |
timeless_mbp | you're running software on your mac asking it to do X | 19:32 |
kerio | if i tell it to be in "just charge" mode i want it to JUST CHARGE THE FUCKING BATTERY | 19:32 |
timeless_mbp | on your n900 you tell it "i don't care" | 19:32 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: ok, security issues | 19:32 |
*** ayanes has quit IRC | 19:32 | |
timeless_mbp | you didn't tell it "just charge" you said "i don't care" | 19:32 |
*** MohammadAG has quit IRC | 19:32 | |
timeless_mbp | security reasons? | 19:32 |
kerio | i'm using an "unsafe" computer to charge it | 19:32 |
kerio | because i trust the fact that it won't answer to requests | 19:32 |
*** BluesLee has joined #maemo | 19:33 | |
kerio | because, you know, i'm using "just charge" mode | 19:33 |
timeless_mbp | that wasn't in any requirements list anyone here got | 19:33 |
timeless_mbp | if you think it's an important use case, i'd suggest you make a note to meego | 19:33 |
kerio | it's not an "important use case" | 19:33 |
kerio | it's just inconsistant | 19:33 |
*** thopiekar has joined #maemo | 19:33 | |
timeless_mbp | tap out means "i don't care" | 19:33 |
timeless_mbp | it doesn't mean "do this undocumented thing forever" | 19:34 |
* timeless_mbp does wonder what the heck nokia did | 19:34 | |
kerio | but... i liked that undocumented thing! | 19:34 |
kerio | :( | 19:34 |
kerio | ;)s | 19:35 |
timeless_mbp | since quitting the system menubar doesn't rid me of the behavior | 19:35 |
kerio | *;) | 19:35 |
*** thuttu77 has joined #maemo | 19:35 | |
timeless_mbp | anyway, if you really want to force it, use a cable that only supports charging :) | 19:35 |
*** Macer has quit IRC | 19:36 | |
kerio | timeless_mbp: 0.1mA | 19:36 |
timeless_mbp | ? | 19:36 |
timeless_mbp | oh, yeah well :) | 19:36 |
kerio | er | 19:36 |
*** MohammadAG has joined #maemo | 19:36 | |
kerio | no, that's right | 19:36 |
timeless_mbp | that'd be the price you'd pay ;-) | 19:36 |
*** Macer has joined #maemo | 19:36 | |
timeless_mbp | fwiw, my translation says 'charging', not 'just charging' | 19:37 |
timeless_mbp | but please do feel free to file a bug in bugs.maemo.org | 19:37 |
timeless_mbp | it should indicate it's in pc suite mode | 19:37 |
timeless_mbp | (when it is) | 19:37 |
Nadley | hi kerio | 19:37 |
Nadley | I have a question for you kerio | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | please do be sure to indicate in the bug the precise steps to reproduce | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | that includes: | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | 1. downloading nmt 1.4.0 | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | 2. upgrading to 1.4.2 | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | 3. leaving that thing running | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | 4. attaching a working data cable | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | 5. turning on your n900 | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | 6. connecting the n900 to your data cable to your mac running 10.6 w/ nmt running in the menubar | 19:38 |
timeless_mbp | 7. tapping outside the dialog | 19:38 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: my translation says "just charge" | 19:39 |
timeless_mbp | 8. opening system information on the mac | 19:39 |
timeless_mbp | kerio: i wrote my own translation | 19:39 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: don't write it here, write it in the bug report! | 19:39 |
timeless_mbp | not my bug :) | 19:39 |
timeless_mbp | lcuk: did you find no trace of the camera bug? | 19:39 |
BluesLee | what is a mac?:-) | 19:39 |
timeless_mbp | oh, do us a favor and specify the mac hardware too ;-) | 19:40 |
timeless_mbp | that gives someone the chance to requisition one :) | 19:40 |
Nadley | kerio: do you use skype on your N900 ? | 19:40 |
kerio | Nadley: yeah | 19:40 |
Nadley | kerio: ok me too but if I delete a contact with skype ID when I'm connected to skype it delete the contact on skype too. Do you have the same trouble ? | 19:41 |
kerio | dunno | 19:41 |
kerio | never deleted a skype contact | 19:42 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: heh, they'll love it | 19:42 |
kerio | i'm on a 17" macbook pro | 19:42 |
timeless_mbp | Nadley: that's by design | 19:42 |
timeless_mbp | kerio: yep :) | 19:42 |
timeless_mbp | Nadley: it's an integrated system | 19:42 |
timeless_mbp | if you don't want that behavior, you'll have to disable skype before you munge the contact | 19:42 |
*** Chewtoy has quit IRC | 19:42 | |
kerio | or just delete everything else | 19:43 |
timeless_mbp | i'm fairly certain this is documented in various postings on the web | 19:43 |
*** vanadismobile has quit IRC | 19:43 | |
timeless_mbp | and no, i'm not defending any behaviors here | 19:43 |
timeless_mbp | that's never my job | 19:43 |
Nadley | timeless_mbp: ok :s. It is very painfull | 19:43 |
lbt | X-Fade: ping.... maemo.org OBS nw seems to have gone.... | 19:43 |
timeless_mbp | i have unfortunately already asked the engineers involved about all of these | 19:43 |
timeless_mbp | Nadley: turning off skype is not painful | 19:43 |
timeless_mbp | turning off twenty services might be a bit painful | 19:44 |
timeless_mbp | but i only have half a dozen (6) | 19:44 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: that's indeed half a dozen | 19:44 |
kerio | :P | 19:44 |
Nadley | timeless_mbp: yes I will do it like that by turning off skype. And if I merge my contacts with my skype contact I'll have some trouble ? | 19:45 |
timeless_mbp | kerio: sometimes i wonder if people are unfamiliar w/ en-US/en-GB and only speak en-intl | 19:45 |
timeless_mbp | Nadley: depends on what you're trying to do | 19:46 |
timeless_mbp | obviously the UI designers and engineers decided this was "the right thing to do" | 19:46 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: most people speak en-tubes | 19:46 |
kerio | or en-lolcat | 19:46 |
* timeless_mbp hates both | 19:46 | |
timeless_mbp | but especially the latter | 19:46 |
kerio | timeless_mbp: http://www.lolcatbible.com/ | 19:46 |
kerio | Oh hai. In teh beginnin Ceiling Cat maded teh skiez An da Urfs, but he did not eated dem. | 19:47 |
timeless_mbp | lcuk: what's your "show photo" setting set to? No? 2, 4, 6, until dismissed? | 19:47 |
Nadley | timeless_mbp: if I had my contacts then merge some of them with my skype contact and turn off skype then delete one of them and turn on skype. My merging work before will stay as it was ? | 19:48 |
timeless_mbp | Nadley: my memory of this is >1 yr old | 19:48 |
timeless_mbp | but roughly changes to skype are made live | 19:48 |
timeless_mbp | if you aren't online, then it shouldn't see changes you make | 19:49 |
timeless_mbp | iirc | 19:49 |
Nadley | ok | 19:49 |
timeless_mbp | but please don't take me word for it | 19:49 |
timeless_mbp | it's your data, i don't care about it | 19:49 |

timeless_mbp | but when i expensive a hdd purchase, my employer owns the drive | 20:29 |
timeless_mbp | so yes, the company owns the pen and paper | 20:30 |
timeless_mbp | now, on average, the company won't ask for the pen+ paper back | 20:30 |
timeless_mbp | just like they don't ask for the food | 20:30 |

luke-jr | kW: unlikely; Maemo isn't open source | 22:03 |
luke-jr | actually, that makes for an interesting topic | 22:03 |
luke-jr | if MeeGo is supposed to be open source, does that mean they're dropping Skype support? | 22:04 |
Kegetys | I wonder if the skypekit thing will work on N900, could make a better implementation | 22:04 |

*** avs has joined #maemo | 22:04 | |

*** lsm5_ has joined #maemo | 22:04 | |
Surfa | luke-jr, there are closed source sw running on other linuxes too | 22:04 |
luke-jr | Surfa: I don't expect Skype will tolerate an open client | 22:04 |
luke-jr | Surfa: we're not talking about running a client on an OS | 22:05 |
luke-jr | we're talking about integration as part of the OS | 22:05 |
Surfa | luke-jr, thats' more or less opinions there :) | 22:05 |
luke-jr | ... | 22:05 |
Surfa | when something is integrated in the sw or just integrated to ui | 22:05 |
Surfa | sw = os | 22:06 |
*** ruxpin has joined #maemo | 22:06 | |
Surfa | or closed source plugin for some app perhaps | 22:07 |
kakashi_ | Btw, I just flashed my n900 | 22:07 |
luke-jr | Surfa: if MeeGo includes anything closed, it's not open | 22:07 |
luke-jr | simple as that | 22:07 |
*** lsm5 has quit IRC | 22:08 | |
Surfa | luke-jr, well, then there aren't very many open os's in the world :) | 22:08 |
luke-jr | Surfa: sure there are | 22:08 |
kakashi_ | now the problem is that I am not able to make any calls, it says unable to connect to network, and it shows a sign with a "cross on simcard" in the top left status bar | 22:09 |
luke-jr | Debian's the obvious one | 22:09 |
kakashi_ | even though the simcard is present | 22:09 |
Surfa | and if skype client was open source, then what? | 22:09 |
kakashi_ | it is not detecting the sim card | 22:09 |
Surfa | who cares really | 22:09 |
luke-jr | Surfa: I do. | 22:09 |
kakashi_ | does anybody know why? | 22:09 |
Surfa | kakashi_, have you tried another sim card? | 22:09 |
kakashi_ | yeah | 22:10 |
kakashi_ | it does the same thing | 22:10 |
Surfa | same problem? | 22:10 |
kakashi_ | I tried flashing it twice | 22:10 |
kakashi_ | it doesn't detect the simcard while booting | 22:10 |
Surfa | ok.. one colleague of mine has problems with certain sim cards | 22:10 |
kakashi_ | this used to work till the morning | 22:10 |
Kegetys | if skype would be open source, skype support could be added to other IM clients and I could stop using that annoying skype one... plus missing features on the N900 one could be implemented | 22:10 |
kakashi_ | Surfa, infact I have a password on my simcard, it doesnt prompt for it in the begining, I am not sure why it skips it | 22:11 |
Surfa | kakashi_, if it doesn't detect it, of course it won't prompt the pin either | 22:11 |
kakashi_ | yeha | 22:11 |
kakashi_ | any solutions? | 22:11 |
Surfa | sounds hw problems if you did reflash already | 22:12 |
Surfa | ..and it happens with other simcards | 22:12 |
Surfa | same operator sim card or some other? | 22:12 |
kakashi_ | other | 22:13 |
Surfa | doh, i'm out of ideas | 22:13 |
luke-jr | Kegetys: you can already stop using that annoying Skype one ;) | 22:13 |
Kegetys | nope | 22:15 |
Surfa | off topic subjective opinion: I have never seen any im client implemented better than originals, only benefit is that they can be integrated into one client, but otherwise they are crappy without exceptions | 22:15 |
luke-jr | Surfa: another benefit is that one could remove the viral/trojan code | 22:17 |

luke-jr | dotblank: no T-Mobile in Nebraska :/ | 23:41 |
luke-jr | kerio: too bad there's no 3G where I live | 23:41 |
*** ljsdofuynsdfufuh has left #maemo | 23:41 | |
*** jgoss has quit IRC | 23:41 | |
luke-jr | anyhow, tethering is defined as "connection sharing" | 23:41 |
*** jgoss has joined #maemo | 23:42 | |
*** gaveen has quit IRC | 23:48 | |
Macer | hm. found the tethering sweet spot where i am at | 23:48 |
Macer | i was about to start putting mirrors around the damn thing | 23:49 |
kerio | Macer: speed? | 23:49 |
Macer | it would actually moreso timeout than anything | 23:49 |
Macer | keeps switching between 3.5,3,2.5,2G | 23:49 |
kerio | set it to "3g only" | 23:49 |
kerio | and put it near a window | 23:49 |
Macer | haha. that's ok. i am in a sweet spot now | 23:50 |
*** disco_stu_N800 has joined #maemo | 23:50 | |
Macer | it's working great where it is | 23:50 |
*** disco_stu has quit IRC | 23:50 | |
Macer | someone should make an antenna that you can run to the roof | 23:50 |
Macer | then plug into the usb port :) | 23:50 |
Macer | i wonder how far the wifi can go on the n900 | 23:50 |
*** disco_stu_N800 is now known as disco_stu | 23:51 | |
Macer | anyways. it is working good now. have it plugged in with the screen off | 23:51 |
Macer | when i used to wifi tether on my G1 the phone would die even when plugged in | 23:51 |
ruxpin | hmm, managed to get my rootfs down to 91% .. so, it is not usable to install build-essentials on this device .. cross-compiling all the way? :) | 23:52 |
kerio | uninstall stuff | 23:52 |
ruxpin | hm, well, this specific package I wanted to compile wanted me to pull some weird things with lots of deps .. | 23:52 |
ruxpin | it got full with gtk-doc-tools .. | 23:53 |
timeless_mbp | ruxpin: do you really want to go the gentoo way? | 23:53 |
timeless_mbp | if so, *why*? | 23:53 |
ruxpin | gentoo is cool :) | 23:53 |
ruxpin | anyway, I just want geoclue on N900 | 23:53 |
MohammadAG51 | ruxpin, install scratchbox, install ssh, get a static ip | 23:53 |
MohammadAG51 | compiling on the go | 23:53 |
ruxpin | good idea | 23:54 |
MohammadAG51 | i know, cause i'm using that :P | 23:54 |
ruxpin | I forgot that I already have the maemo dev scratchbox image :) | 23:54 |
ruxpin | tried it a few months ago before getting the actual device | 23:54 |
Macer | what is it about crackheads that they can't keep a license? | 23:54 |
Macer | ok wrong # :) | 23:55 |
MohammadAG51 | lol | 23:55 |
*** me1ne has joined #maemo | 23:57 | |
ColdFyre | are there any recent howto's on running debian/fc13 on the n900? | 23:57 |
*** unixSnob has quit IRC | 23:58 | |
Macer | hm. i've got a pretty good connection but youtube keeps skipping :/ | 23:59 |
