DocScrutinizer | lcuk: (alarm_queue.ini) it's probably written by alarmd on quit. caller-ui does exactly that, that's the reason you need to kill -9 it in *#-ena, as otherwise the edits in the config file are overwritten and lost | 00:30 |

*** tobis87 has left #maemo | 01:05 | |
DocScrutinizer | lcuk: err, active external monitoring? please elaborate. I suggested a simple read-modify-write inside the procedure/method actually changing a setting, rather than read-on-constructor change-locally write-in-destructor | 01:05 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: a /save is sane, if app *only* saves on /save | 01:06 |
*** wazd has quit IRC | 01:06 | |
jacekowski | well, thing is that saving everything everytime you modify something is just a waste | 01:06 |

DocScrutinizer | why the hell must things get symlinks from usr/ to opt/ while usr/ still on NAND?? there's absolutely NO sane reason why usr/ can't get an own drive. That's been the rationale usr/ was introduced | 01:31 |

DocScrutinizer | it's renamed sometime during boot iirc | 02:06 |
MNZ | IMHO if there's going to be a PR1.3 it shouldn't be out without a sane answer to the limited nand space | 02:06 |
MohammadAG51 | so, assuming maemo 5 is moved to the eMMC, or the microSD, would it rename them? | 02:06 |
DocScrutinizer | the answer is optification, according to nokia | 02:06 |

DocScrutinizer | detecting bad blocks on a mmc isn't exactly simple | 02:16 |
*** dvoid_ has quit IRC | 02:16 | |
zeltak | i see so how does one know if the emmc is defective? | 02:16 |
jacekowski | hmm, but nand controller should pick it up | 02:16 |
MohammadAG51 | reflash would fail | 02:16 |
DocScrutinizer | as there's not supposed to be any exposed to 'outside world - mmc controller should handle that internally | 02:16 |
MNZ | DocScrutinizer, because you shouldn't fix it on *your* device. This needs a good answer and a fix through an SSU.... of course this is a huge amount of work, deoptification(I love new words) of all the packages, and succesfully "fixing" everyone's devices in an automated way.... is all this even plausible? | 02:17 |

DocScrutinizer | unlikely | 02:20 |
*** lmoura has joined #maemo | 02:20 | |
DocScrutinizer | could be early defect | 02:20 |
jacekowski | and look at the block numbers | 02:20 |
zeltak | and if not anyone had any experience with "taking it back" in the USA? how is that done? | 02:20 |
MohammadAG51 | it might go kaboom later | 02:20 |
DocScrutinizer | or siply a nasty corrupted block | 02:20 |
jacekowski | these are sequential | 02:20 |
MohammadAG51 | :P | 02:20 |
jacekowski | looks like there is no wear leveling applied at all | 02:20 |
MohammadAG51 | zeltak, a bottle of beer, or 10, and a visit to the Nokia store | 02:21 |
DocScrutinizer | zeltak: first flash VANILLA eMMC | 02:21 |
zeltak | DocScrutinizer: will do it in a few minutes | 02:21 |
DocScrutinizer | zeltak: if that doesn't fix things, we'll deal with RMA | 02:22 |

MohammadAG51 | hmm, the N95's battery is the same as the N900's | 02:22 |
MohammadAG51 | ignoring size and capacity differences | 02:22 |
zeltak | thx DocScrutinizer ill report in a few minutes..just the emmc not the root right? | 02:22 |
MohammadAG51 | both | 02:22 |
DocScrutinizer | zeltak: yes - and COMBINED! | 02:22 |
zeltak | and combined? so both the root and the emmc..gothca | 02:23 |
MohammadAG51 | don't use -R | 02:23 |
*** sepultina has joined #maemo | 02:23 | |
zeltak | kk thx MohammadAG51 | 02:23 |
MohammadAG51 | when using flasher-3.5 | 02:23 |
DocScrutinizer | never flash eMMC without rootfs | 02:23 |
zeltak | i see thx for the tips | 02:23 |
zeltak | so first root without -R and then the emmc | 02:23 |
DocScrutinizer | I'd do it other way round, but in the end without -R it doesn't matter | 02:24 |
*** FireFly has quit IRC | 02:24 | |
DocScrutinizer | just never use -R | 02:24 |
zeltak | ok so ill do it your way DocScrutinizer then 1)reflash vanilla to emmc (without -r) and then reflash root and then reboot..correct | 02:25 |
DocScrutinizer | yep | 02:25 |

jacekowski | we should check PA license | 02:31 |
jacekowski | and double check if it's legal to create closed source PA modules | 02:31 |
MNZ | jacekowski, you mean we could force nokia to release sources!? HEEHAW | 02:31 |

*** blizzow3 has joined #maemo | 02:40 | |
*** blizzow3 has quit IRC | 02:41 | |
*** blizzow1 has joined #maemo | 02:41 | |
zeltak | ok...so how do i proceed..only the emmc was flashed so far | 02:41 |
*** blizzow4 has joined #maemo | 02:42 | |
*** blizzow1 has quit IRC | 02:42 | |
DocScrutinizer | zeltak: maybe it'd help to switch off the device after first flash, and restart with flashing rootfs as usual | 02:42 |
*** rcampbell has joined #maemo | 02:42 | |
zeltak | sorry i dont follow (its been a long day at work... :))..the device is switched off currently after emmc flash | 02:43 |
*** blizzow1 has joined #maemo | 02:43 | |
*** blizzow4 has quit IRC | 02:43 | |
zeltak | so now i should boot it ? | 02:43 |
DocScrutinizer | ok, so proceed with flashing rootfs | 02:43 |
DocScrutinizer | nope, don't 'boot' | 02:44 |
zeltak | so thats what i did but get the above error | 02:44 |
zeltak | device is powered off and i issued: flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.19-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f | 02:44 |
DocScrutinizer | you shall keep it from booting into system, by a) holding 'u', b) prestarting flasher command and 'switch on' N900 via simply plugging in USB cable to it | 02:45 |
*** EdLin has left #maemo | 02:45 | |
DocScrutinizer | :nod: | 02:45 |

*** blizzow1 has quit IRC | 02:46 | |
*** blizzow3 has joined #maemo | 02:46 | |
DocScrutinizer | no, don't press power key | 02:46 |

zeltak | i see just press u and start flasher and then plug in usb..gotcha | 02:46 |
zeltak | i see thx | 02:46 |
DocScrutinizer | just hold the 'u' key, then plug in to USB. it will auto-on | 02:46 |
* lcuk ponders how to do this as an all in one bundle | 02:46 | |
*** SpeedEvil has joined #maemo | 02:47 | |
MNZ | no, start flasher only after usb is plugged in and phone is actually on | 02:47 |
lcuk | zenity is the console shell script UI decision thing isnt it | 02:47 |
DocScrutinizer | lcuk: like "/me wonders idly if flasher takes multiple img arguments" ? | 02:47 |

*** blizzow2 has quit IRC | 03:09 | |

lcuk | if you manually rebooted yeah | 03:09 |
DocScrutinizer | at least if that's been an unsolicited boot | 03:09 |
DocScrutinizer | hmm, no | 03:09 |
*** HarryS has joined #maemo | 03:09 | |
DocScrutinizer | then it's not helpful | 03:09 |
lcuk | no,have a run around and see if anything jumps again, but thats a bit unnormal | 03:10 |
DocScrutinizer | kinda sounds like your device is acting unstable | 03:10 |

*** blizzow2 has joined #maemo | 03:11 | |
*** blizzow4 has quit IRC | 03:11 | |

*** blizzow4 has joined #maemo | 03:18 | |

SpacedOut | lcuk: I rebooted and it didn't come up until I reflashed the rootfs, unfortunately I don't have an old dmesg that I know of to know if it just happened and that's why it couldn't boot or not. | 03:19 |
*** HarryS has joined #maemo | 03:19 | |
SpeedEvil | The device capacity is specced something like "256M after 1 million write cycles to each block" | 03:19 |
*** blizzow1 has joined #maemo | 03:19 | |
*** blizzow4 has quit IRC | 03:19 | |
DocScrutinizer | zeltak: strange. probably it doesn't like the ~ | 03:20 |
*** SWFu has quit IRC | 03:20 | |
SpeedEvil | The initial capacity is higher than this, with the expectatrion that blocks will fail in use | 03:20 |
lcuk | hi se | 03:20 |
SpacedOut | Interesting, one of the guys at worked checked and he didn't have any bad blocks. | 03:20 |
zeltak | ill try with full path | 03:20 |
SpacedOut | The flashing software also detects and writes around bad blocks as well? | 03:21 |
SpeedEvil | SpacedOut: yes. | 03:21 |

luke-jr | if anyone wants to pick up where I left off, contact me before I forget everything I did tonight | 03:25 |
SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: I have been cleaning up after my fishtank leaked. | 03:25 |
SpeedEvil | Involving moving all furniture, ... | 03:25 |
*** e-yes has joined #maemo | 03:25 | |
*** HarryS has quit IRC | 03:25 | |
zeltak | ok DocScrutinizer i think its working with full paths | 03:25 |
MNZ | luke-jr, pick up what? | 03:26 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: lcuk asked about a general diagnostics script, for 'helpdesk purposes' | 03:26 |
SpeedEvil | ah | 03:26 |
luke-jr | MNZ: telepathy-spirit on x86 Linux | 03:26 |
luke-jr | MNZ: aka Skype w/o Skype | 03:26 |
*** blizzow4 has joined #maemo | 03:26 | |
*** blizzow3 has quit IRC | 03:26 | |
SpeedEvil | I could distribute a live diagnostics program. | 03:26 |
luke-jr | MNZ: also the only remote possibility of getting N900 video chat with desktop Linux | 03:27 |
SpeedEvil | Funded by retrieved credit card numbers. | 03:27 |
DocScrutinizer | zeltak: prepare for making and drinking a cup of coffee :-P | 03:27 |
MNZ | luke-jr, oh sweet! a quick fill in perhaps? | 03:27 |
lcuk | SpeedEvil, simple script, runs once saves file in MyDocs and also somewhere else. no real extra dependencies | 03:27 |
luke-jr | MNZ: ok, first of all, skyhost crashes in qemu-user, so don't bother trying that | 03:27 |
lcuk | something user can be talked to plug back into desktop pc and upload | 03:27 |
SpeedEvil | yeah | 03:27 |
luke-jr | MNZ: I'm working with the qemu-maemo fork on gitorious | 03:27 |
MNZ | k, taking notes | 03:28 |
*** sge has quit IRC | 03:28 | |
lcuk | gets output of the commands we ask all the time | 03:28 |
*** blizzow4 has quit IRC | 03:28 | |
*** blizzow1 has joined #maemo | 03:28 | |
luke-jr | MNZ: you can dd all your /dev/mtd* together to create a mtdblock image for it, and then replace NOLO with MeeGo's NOLO, plus an extra 8 MB on the end, to make it boot in qemu | 03:28 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: :-D | 03:28 |
nox- | oh qemu knows n900 now? | 03:29 |
lcuk | SpeedEvil, and keep the CC sniffing thing away. this is to be short, simple, verifiable and no personal data | 03:29 |
*** HarryS has joined #maemo | 03:29 | |
luke-jr | MNZ: to avoid overhead, I also hacked up the start of my /sbin/preinit to simply load the smc91x module (for Ethernet) and run udhcpc to get an IP, after which it just execs /bin/sh | 03:29 |
luke-jr | nox-: a fork does | 03:29 |
lcuk | but i am sleeping | 03:29 |
nox- | aah | 03:29 |
nox- | link? :) | 03:29 |
*** sge has joined #maemo | 03:30 | |
luke-jr | MNZ: git://git.collabora.co.uk/git/user/alban/dbus-daemon-proxy can be run on the host machine to provide dbus over TCP | 03:30 |
DocScrutinizer | lcuk: at least neads a call to pastebinit in the end | 03:30 |
lcuk | no, thats an extra dependency | 03:30 |
lcuk | if we get the file stored on mydocs | 03:30 |
*** blizzow1 has quit IRC | 03:30 | |
luke-jr | MNZ: the qemu side can connect to it with DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=tcp:host=10.0.2.2,port=1234,family=ipv4 (not sure that's the env var name…) | 03:30 |
*** blizzow1 has joined #maemo | 03:30 | |
lcuk | most people can go from there | 03:30 |
DocScrutinizer | lcuk: there's pastbinit implemented in scripting | 03:31 |
lcuk | DocScrutinizer, i just want to make the process a little less painful | 03:31 |
DocScrutinizer | perl or sth | 03:31 |
lcuk | not try to be too clever | 03:31 |
luke-jr | MNZ: from there, it's a matter of making the qemu side start its telepathy-spirit and connect/auth with the real session bus, when telepathy wants it to start | 03:31 |
luke-jr | MNZ: big unknown, and why I'm not going on right now: skyhost also has binaries 'videohost' and 'voicehost', which are probably needed for video chat too, and telepathy doesn't *really* support voice/video | 03:32 |
*** blizzow1 has quit IRC | 03:32 | |
*** blizzow1 has joined #maemo | 03:32 | |
luke-jr | so how videohost/voicehost would talk to the host system is unknown at this time | 03:32 |
luke-jr | potentially, you may need a guest-side app handling forwarding RTP | 03:32 |
DocScrutinizer | lcuk: and, on assuming we don't want user to type in the script manually anyway, it can as well become a 200k or 2M executable of any kind | 03:33 |
DocScrutinizer | lcuk: selfcomprised | 03:33 |
MNZ | luke-jr, ok, all duly noted. (and in the IRC logs as well) | 03:33 |
luke-jr | ☺ | 03:33 |
MNZ | but you don't plan on continuing work on this? | 03:33 |
luke-jr | it's taking too much time ☹ | 03:33 |
*** blizzow1 has quit IRC | 03:33 | |
luke-jr | I really *need* it in a week from today, but I have higher priorities | 03:34 |
*** blizzow2 has joined #maemo | 03:34 | |
luke-jr | also, telepathy-spirit was acting odd in the VM | 03:34 |
*** mlfoster has quit IRC | 03:34 | |
luke-jr | not sure where to begin troubleshooting that | 03:34 |
luke-jr | it sounded like it expected skyhost to *already* be running | 03:34 |
*** blizzow2 has quit IRC | 03:34 | |
MNZ | I might take a detour from what I'm doing now and look into this, seems interesting. But I have a lot of downloading to do :-X | 03:34 |
luke-jr | I'd just boot the full Maemo in the VM, but it doesn't emulate SGX, so Maemo crashes and reboots | 03:35 |
*** blizzow2 has joined #maemo | 03:35 | |
*** HarryS has quit IRC | 03:35 | |
luke-jr | so probably one needs to figure out exactly what other stuff to run for it | 03:35 |
MNZ | but the end result of all this? no easy solution for the avg joe? | 03:36 |
luke-jr | nope | 03:36 |
*** blizzow1 has joined #maemo | 03:36 | |
*** blizzow2 has quit IRC | 03:36 | |
luke-jr | none of the Maemo stuff is redistributable of course | 03:36 |
MNZ | luke-jr, not *legally* anyway ;) | 03:37 |
MNZ | though I don't intend to distribute anything illegally, just saying | 03:37 |
* MNZ >.> <.< | 03:38 | |
luke-jr | in theory, one could make an app that SSH's to a N900 to build the image… :p | 03:38 |
luke-jr | then the avg joe just installs sshd, and voila | 03:38 |
MNZ | in theory, yes. | 03:38 |

johnx | heh. the case I'll be putting mine in isn't quite old enough to have a turbo button | 09:04 |
johnx | but it's close | 09:04 |
*** shamus has joined #maemo | 09:04 | |
mece | does it blow compressed air into the processor? | 09:04 |
johnx | that would be awesome | 09:05 |
mece | yep | 09:06 |
ieatlint | clearly it should blow nitrous into it to mimic the car craze | 09:06 |
*** xkr47-DI has joined #maemo | 09:06 | |
mece | actually, i'm sure it would help with cooling... http://volvospeed.com/Pics/Review/innovative_turbo.jpg | 09:06 |
*** dvoid_ has joined #maemo | 09:09 | |
johnx | yeah, but to actually spool a turbo you'd need something with P4 levels of heat dissipation | 09:09 |
mece | so you need another turbo to blow air on the turbo! | 09:10 |
mece | biturbo! | 09:10 |
scp1 | Are there any must-have applications, besides the obvious vim, mplayer etc that I've missed? | 09:10 |
johnx | or a supercharger->turbocharger setup with the supercharger running off a belt from the CPU fan :> | 09:10 |
mece | scp1, well I don't have vim or mplayer... | 09:10 |
scp1 | Oh, I'm so sorry. | 09:10 |
mece | johnx, yeah!!! I want that on my N900 | 09:11 |
scp1 | You could lend mine for a while :p | 09:11 |
mece | scp1, I use nano or khteditor | 09:11 |
scp1 | I tried ines, it didnt work very well. I saw that sdlmame is being ported now, that'd be totally awesome | 09:11 |
johnx | conboy and xournal for notes, xchat of course, omweather, stopwatch, | 09:11 |
mece | scp1, snes works very well. | 09:12 |

mece | here's some stuff I use: xchat, witter, mastory, mypaint, mussorgsky, scout, qlister, qspot, freeciv, free heroes 2, wesnoth, exult, fcam, drnoksnes, feedingit fmboost/transmitterwidget, comic-widget, firefox | 09:18 |
mece | scp1, when doesn't it autorotate? | 09:18 |
*** sge has joined #maemo | 09:18 | |
scp1 | mece, Well when I'm in the terminal. I'd be able to see a lot more... wait. I just realized that wasnt a very good idea, since the keyboard doesnt autorotate as well. :D | 09:19 |
mece | scp1, well for text editing try khteditor. it's quite nice, and you can rotate for browsing stuff. Very nice if you do python. | 09:20 |

scp1 | I must say I'm very, very pleased with the n900 though. Kind of improvement over my 3310! :) | 09:21 |

mece | oh wait 3210 was the phone I meant! | 09:22 |
mece | yeah. my 3210 survived 2 toilet falls | 09:23 |
Corsac | I'm not sure we want to hear that story | 09:23 |
mece | it's not gross. The bowl was clean both times. | 09:23 |

scp1 | I havent overclocked mine yet though, maybe you have? | 09:25 |
johnx | heck no :) | 09:25 |
mece | scp1, that's strange. framerate on snes i quite nice imo. No overclocking | 09:25 |
scp1 | hmm | 09:26 |
johnx | I don't have the money to replace this thing when the CPU burns up | 09:26 |
johnx | mece, is that with or without sound? | 09:26 |

mece | johnx, I don't have that many games though. But Mortal Kombat is very smooth. | 09:26 |
mece | and for me completely impossible without the gamegripper. | 09:27 |
johnx | I love the idea of playing a nice relaxing SNES RPG on my N900 ... but the reality is I rarely find myself in the situation where I have it but not some other form of entertainment | 09:28 |

johnx | scp1, remove the whatever debian added to your boot sequence ... | 09:40 |

johnx | you're the one who has to weight the cost/benefit ratio | 09:54 |
johnx | s/weight/weigh | 09:54 |
scp1 | Well I need it at least booting :p | 09:54 |
johnx | I give it good odds, that you could get it properly booting with the rescue method in an hour or two | 09:54 |
DocScrutinizer | jpinx-eeepc: yes | 09:55 |
johnx | if you have a lot of hacks and customizations already applied it's probably faster to recover | 09:55 |

jpinx-eeepc | DocScrutinizer: ok - seems to have done, pulled the cables, but the faint NOKA is still on the screen and it won't boot | 09:56 |
DocScrutinizer | takes some time | 09:56 |
jpinx-eeepc | "some time" as in ten minutes? and hour? | 09:56 |
DocScrutinizer | but of course if you omitted -R, you need to switch off and power on manually to boot | 09:57 |
jpinx-eeepc | DocScrutinizer: it refuses to power down when I hold the button | 09:57 |
DocScrutinizer | takeout battery | 09:57 |
jpinx-eeepc | so I assume it's still munching stuff | 09:57 |

jpinx-eeepc | DocScrutinizer: errr.. where is that logged? | 09:59 |
johnx | scp1, a .deb is an ar archive... | 09:59 |

*** lbt has quit IRC | 10:05 | |

jpinx-eeepc | ok . did a battery-out to kill the n900, now I'll do both flashes again and paste the full output | 10:06 |
*** vanadis has joined #maemo | 10:06 | |
jpinx-eeepc | DocScrutinizer: yep the power up with u held worked as it said in the destructions | 10:06 |

scp1 | what on earth is the 'FIASCO' image? I cant find it | 10:07 |
jpinx-eeepc | is eMMC the COMBINED ia the rootfs? | 10:07 |

*** booiiing|clone has quit IRC | 10:23 | |
DocScrutinizer | yep | 10:24 |
jpinx-eeepc | DocScrutinizer: already seeing some better goings-on - the previous owner of this n900 possibly screwed himself up a bit | 10:25 |
DocScrutinizer | and that power plug nonsense (it IS nonsense for N900, evidently) is highly confusing | 10:25 |

jpinx-eeepc | he admitted that he had got an iphone ;) | 10:26 |
DocScrutinizer | jpinx-eeepc: exactly what I'm planning to do | 10:27 |

DocScrutinizer | kerio: that as well | 10:35 |

crashanddie | johnx: I have the same problem, admittedly | 10:38 |
johnx | see, even my terminology is out of date O_o; | 10:38 |
crashanddie | johnx: motherboards were called motherboards for the past 20 years, lol | 10:38 |
crashanddie | johnx: maybe not in your cave, but that's just your seattle accent | 10:38 |
johnx | I've heard mainboard in some circles. mobo in other circles | 10:39 |
hrw | johnx: intel or amd? | 10:39 |
kerio | ARM! | 10:39 |
johnx | I think AMD looks like a better deal for more cores right now | 10:39 |
johnx | so I was going to go with them | 10:39 |
jpinx-eeepc | just a quickie - how to zoom in/out with the browser? | 10:39 |
crashanddie | johnx: go for intel i7, buy it off dell.com, less hassle | 10:39 |
kerio | volkeys | 10:39 |
kerio | or draw a circle | 10:39 |
crashanddie | jpinx-eeepc: circle with stylus | 10:39 |
jpinx-eeepc | kerio: tks | 10:39 |
johnx | jpinx-eeepc, swirl your finger, or double tap, or hit the volume keys | 10:39 |
kerio | or doubletap | 10:39 |
* crashanddie awards 2 points to kerio for speed, 2 points to johnx for brevity | 10:40 | |
hrw | johnx: grab something with 8xx chipset and usb3.0 support. 4 banks of ddr3 and 2x pcie x16 | 10:40 |
crashanddie | IT'S A DRAW | 10:40 |

johnx | hrw, thanks for the tip on the chipset. was about to get a 7xx | 10:40 |
Flyser_ | johnx: whatever you do. dont buy cheap. especially the mainboard ... | 10:40 |
johnx | crashanddie, budget isn't there for an i7 right now :P | 10:41 |
kerio | i'd buy an imac | 10:41 |
crashanddie | johnx: then don't buy | 10:41 |
DocScrutinizer | jpinx-eeepc: http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Shortcuts_and_Gestures | 10:41 |
nid0 | motherboard wise not a great deal has changed since abit shut down. anything by asus will come with a premium price, intel boards are solid but generally basic, dfi boards are alright, gigabyte are generally a bit on the cheapo side | 10:41 |
hrw | johnx: 8xx gives you southbridge with sata 6Gbps - can be handy when you buy fast ssd | 10:41 |
crashanddie | kerio++ | 10:41 |
johnx | crashanddie, thanks. that's totally unhelpful | 10:41 |
kerio | the 27" is a fucking beast | 10:41 |
*** rmoravcik has joined #maemo | 10:41 | |
crashanddie | kerio: yeah, have one at work | 10:41 |
johnx | kerio, with $350, you'd buy an imac? | 10:41 |
DocScrutinizer | 5 point to me for best answer | 10:41 |
jpinx-eeepc | DocScrutinizer: nice one :) | 10:41 |
crashanddie | johnx: nope, I' buy new heads for my drumkit | 10:42 |
kerio | johnx: i'd buy a pair of headphones :| | 10:42 |
crashanddie | johnx: with $350, you can buy a netbook | 10:42 |
johnx | nid0, aaah, now that's what I wanted to know :) thanks | 10:42 |
crashanddie | johnx: it usually works better to tell the budget and aimed use first | 10:42 |
* kerio sometimes wonders if he has too much expendable income | 10:43 | |
hrw | johnx: 350$ is all you have for computer? | 10:43 |
johnx | hrw, i don't really see spending more *shrugs* | 10:43 |
crashanddie | kerio: same here | 10:43 |
johnx | it'd cut into my beer fund :P | 10:43 |
crashanddie | you have a beer fund? | 10:43 |
kerio | stop drinking, buy mac pro | 10:43 |
Flyser_ | I own two intel mainboards. they are okay with some minor annoyances | 10:43 |
kerio | wtf is a mainboard | 10:44 |
crashanddie | like, every week you dump money into an account where a broker buys beer for you? | 10:44 |
hrw | my next desktop will cost ~1K$ for cpu/ram/mb | 10:44 |
crashanddie | kerio: motherboard | 10:44 |
nid0 | mainboard == motherboard | 10:44 |
nid0 | interchangable terms | 10:44 |
kerio | crashanddie: lol | 10:44 |
johnx | I'm actually just fine with my A64 3000+ / 1GB RAM, but apparently to develop anything for meego I need VT extensions and SSE3 | 10:44 |
kerio | if the market goes down you get crappy root beer | 10:44 |
hrw | johnx: search for better a64 then | 10:44 |
johnx | uhm, I'm on socket 939 | 10:44 |
hrw | johnx: you have am2 one or 939? | 10:44 |
johnx | heh | 10:45 |
johnx | yeah | 10:45 |
Flyser_ | johnx: a 30$ Celeron will work fine | 10:45 |
johnx | that old | 10:45 |
crashanddie | johnx, nid0: "The term mainboard is archaically applied to devices with a single board and no additional expansions or capability. In modern terms this would include embedded systems and controlling boards in televisions, washing machines, etc. A motherboard specifically refers to a printed circuit with the capability to add/extend its performance." | 10:45 |
hrw | 939... I have 3200+ singlecore somewhere in drawer | 10:45 |
Flyser_ | johnx: oops. I mean a 70$ pentium. Celerons dont have VT | 10:45 |
johnx | Flyser_, I mean, I'm not strapped for cash. I figure I'll set a price point of $350 then let myself be convinced to spend a bit more or a bit less | 10:45 |
Flyser_ | johnx: I can recommend the Intel Pentium E6300 | 10:45 |
crashanddie | johnx: then set a price point of $500, and then start hunting | 10:45 |
crashanddie | johnx: $350 will get you a granny wallmart desktop that was built to power botnets | 10:46 |
hrw | johnx: grab intel775 mainboard with P35 chipset, put there ddr2 ram and cpu with vt/sse3 | 10:46 |
Flyser_ | johnx: do you want dedicated graphics or is an intel gpu sufficent? | 10:46 |
johnx | crashanddie, I don't need a hard drive or case or even video card initially. That's why I'm not going prebuilt | 10:46 |
hrw | johnx: or G43/G45 to have onboard graphics (microatx usually) | 10:47 |

Flyser_ | but _much_ cheaper | 10:48 |
johnx | yeah, saw that | 10:48 |
johnx | still thinking 4 cores might be nice | 10:48 |
kerio | johnx: crashanddie's idea of budgeting is "spend more" | 10:48 |

Nils^ | hi people. n900 is stuck in an reboot loop after upgrading packages (I suspect "kernel power"). Only chance is reflashing? | 11:51 |
jpinx-eeepc | and I will have to remember how to make it behave like this one - it's been a while since I messed with it | 11:52 |
*** jpinxN900 has quit IRC | 11:52 | |
DocScrutinizer | Nils^: basically yes | 11:52 |
X-Fade | Nils^: Try flashing the kernel only? | 11:53 |
DocScrutinizer | you *might* succeed in flashing 'old' kernel only | 11:53 |
*** sulx has joined #maemo | 11:53 | |
DocScrutinizer | but then, you most probably got powerkernel compatible modules, and there's no powerkernel image to flash via flasher afaik | 11:54 |
DocScrutinizer | and no way to replace modules by the stock ones, without reflashing whole rootfs | 11:54 |
*** incar has quit IRC | 11:55 | |
*** Free_maN has joined #maemo | 11:55 | |
johnx | download the powerkernel package, extract it, flash kernel image | 11:55 |
johnx | or am I missing something? | 11:55 |
DocScrutinizer | errm yup, I don't think the package contains a kernel in a format siutable for flasher | 11:56 |
DocScrutinizer | but I could be wrong on that | 11:56 |
Nils^ | I'll just flash the whole thing. I see no problem | 11:56 |
johnx | what does "suitable for flasher" mean? it's just a kernel image... | 11:56 |
*** till__ has quit IRC | 11:56 | |
DocScrutinizer | no idea about format which flasher expects | 11:57 |
Stskeeps | johnx: http://imagebin.org/112079 | 11:57 |
DocScrutinizer | maybe it's plain 'binary' image, but I doubt that | 11:57 |
johnx | Stskeeps, very pretty. uhm, what *is* it? | 11:58 |
DocScrutinizer | Stskeeps: heh! nice background :-D where do I download that one? | 11:58 |
DocScrutinizer | johnx: looks like uBoot | 11:59 |
Stskeeps | johnx: we found out by accident nolo is able to load u-boot.bin | 11:59 |

DocScrutinizer | yep | 11:59 |
Stskeeps | johnx: so ali1234's working on making a workable u-boot, had it working with qemu-n900 for instance and real n900 | 11:59 |
*** rmoravcik has joined #maemo | 11:59 | |
johnx | DocScrutinizer, and I think that the N900's onboard flasher and flasher-3.5 can use the same kernel and initrd image, but maybe I'm confused | 11:59 |
johnx | Stskeeps, aaah, awesome. I totally forgot the N900 doesn't normally use u-boot | 12:00 |
DocScrutinizer | johnx: hmm, you might be right | 12:00 |
Stskeeps | johnx: best part is that n8x0 might be able to do it too :P | 12:00 |
Stskeeps | and we've all been idiots for not discovering this earlier ;) | 12:00 |
johnx | you just have to tell flasher-3.5 that you're handing it a plain kernel image with -k | 12:00 |
johnx | Stskeeps, >_< (that's if the N8x0 could do that all along) | 12:00 |
Stskeeps | johnx: only way we discovered it was cos some guy tried to boot a samsung u-boot in the qemu-n900 | 12:01 |
Stskeeps | :P | 12:01 |
johnx | ha! that's awesome | 12:01 |
Stskeeps | completely wrong approach, but interesting result | 12:01 |

nid0 | jacekowski: not neccesarily | 12:40 |
kerio | jacekowski: well, i had a samsung phone that asked for a lock code if a particular sim wasn't inserted | 12:40 |
kerio | and the sim required the pin | 12:40 |
kerio | so... | 12:40 |
Surfa | it's very common that people use stolen phones for calling service numbers to make profit | 12:40 |
nid0 | huge scam in london got busted recently where people were stealing contract sims to rack up international premium £10/minute calls | 12:41 |
jacekowski | thing is that you don't have to pay for these | 12:41 |
jacekowski | if you report that your phone was stolen | 12:41 |
nid0 | id rather just have the sim locked and not have to worry about it in the first place tbh | 12:41 |

*** millenomi has joined #maemo | 15:31 | |
SpeedEvil | UPS maker says 'recall, fire risk - you don't really have a choice in what to do as a company. | 15:32 |
SpeedEvil | Generally willfully setting fire to employees isn't covered by insurance. | 15:32 |
crashanddie | SpeedEvil: exactly | 15:33 |
crashanddie | quite frankly, I've stopped trying to fight the machine that feeds me | 15:33 |
crashanddie | if some guy in IT asks something, just do it -- it's a lot easier to work when the people who actually control the systems like you | 15:34 |
DocScrutinizer | shouldn't you fetch the bomb squad then, rather than advising everybody to carry the explosive dangerous thing around ? :-P | 15:34 |
crashanddie | the guy was trained to replace power cables and ethernet switches, not account for explosives | 15:34 |

*** jhb has joined #maemo | 15:37 | |

jhb | Hi *, is there a way to a) enable fulltext/content search on files b) indexing of sms/texts, email, contacts on my new shiny n900? (I played around a bit with tracker.cfg, but no sucess) | 15:39 |
crashanddie | there's a python app that allows fulltext search on sms/texts (all conversations) | 15:39 |
crashanddie | but I didn't release it yet, I'm not liking what I did with the UI | 15:39 |
DocScrutinizer | even then I'd answer GTFO when some IT dude asks me to carry that thing around, while not explaining exactly what might happen during I'm doing that. I'd leave the room and shout at him "do it yourself, dude!" | 15:40 |
crashanddie | the search algorithms work fine though | 15:40 |
lcuk | theres another one too that was released afaik | 15:40 |

lcuk | yes DocScrutinizer :P | 16:09 |
*** tonikitoo has joined #maemo | 16:09 | |
TiagoTiago | why isn't it named "camera" like hw it shows in the camera prog? | 16:10 |
lcuk | TiagoTiago, that is translated title | 16:10 |
lcuk | DCIM is more "normal" for digital cameras | 16:10 |
TiagoTiago | hm | 16:10 |
lcuk | so plugging it into USB allows it to interact better with desktop apps | 16:11 |

TiagoTiago | under My Computer, except that if you open it it doesn't have a drive letter and it doesn't look nor behave quite like a regular folder/drive , somtimes hthe folder icons are different, you can't drag stuff proprerlly, somtimes it's weird like miniatures mode without space for filename etc | 16:16 |
DocScrutinizer | hmm, the real distance between CT and BS isn't so much different on laptop than what it is on N900. ~0 in both cases | 16:16 |
DocScrutinizer | CR | 16:16 |
kwtm | Hi. Can someone give me pointers on how to tinker with my N900 "desktop"environment (is it called "dashboard")? E.g. in what directory do I find the icons (like email, contacts, etc.) that show up on my desktop? I'm trying to Google but am not getting the right keywoards. | 16:17 |
TiagoTiago | you mean the app menu? | 16:17 |
*** Venemo has left #maemo | 16:17 | |
lcuk | kwtm, if you want to change the theme, investigate and install a few pre made themes, they often come with icons | 16:17 |
TiagoTiago | I think the dashboard is when you see the miniatures of the programs running | 16:17 |
lcuk | then use one of those to modify | 16:17 |
lcuk | dashboard is the running app list | 16:18 |
TiagoTiago | there are the home screens, the app menu, and the dashboard, or am i wrong? | 16:18 |
lcuk | nope | 16:18 |
TiagoTiago | kinda like with windows you got the desktop, the Start menu and the taskbar, respetivelly | 16:19 |
DocScrutinizer | there's appstarter and there's taskswitcher? | 16:19 |
TiagoTiago | btw, is there an alt-tab in Maemo? | 16:20 |
DocScrutinizer | yes | 16:20 |
lcuk | default system, ctrl-backspace will take you to the dashboard | 16:20 |
kwtm | lcuk: Thanks for the suggestion. I'm looking more for: "I modified an app (e.g. FreeCell4Python) and now I want to change the icon which runs the original app to run my new modified app in my own directory." Presumably the "icon/shortcut" is actually a text file in ~/.hildon-desktop/ or something, which I can edit on my own? | 16:20 |
TiagoTiago | like, to switch btween progs without having to first go to the dashboard and then selecting the prog you want | 16:21 |
DocScrutinizer | http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/repo/Modified_Hildon_Desktop.html | 16:21 |
kwtm | Okay, so the desktop is called ... desktop? Palmtop? Screentop? | 16:21 |

TiagoTiago | I remember reading about this prog for Symbian called btWalkieTalkie or somthing | 16:23 |

pupnik_ | i was hoping to be able to call home from the supermarket directly TiagoTiago | 16:24 |
SpeedEvil | pupnik_: trhey are absolutely fine. | 16:24 |
SpeedEvil | pupnik_: The problem with that is the cellphone is a third of an invention. | 16:24 |
DocScrutinizer | pupnik_: (cellphones call each other) that's completely unfeasible | 16:24 |
lcuk | kwtm, if you are changing a specific package, you should be looking for the .desktop file within that package | 16:24 |
SpeedEvil | pupnik_: The other two thirds are the towers, and the scheduling and network design. | 16:24 |
lcuk | source | 16:24 |
*** psycho_oreos has joined #maemo | 16:24 | |
TiagoTiago | it would be interesting if cell phones formed a secure annonymizing mesh network, only resorting to the cell towers when there are no smaller devices in range that can raeach the destination | 16:25 |
SpeedEvil | pupnik_: So that you do not interfere with other phones or the tower when a distant phone is due to transmit. | 16:25 |

DocScrutinizer | kwtm: you don't want to care about that. just create a new xyz.desktop and have the correct exec= and icon= lines in it, and place it to the folder MNZ told | 16:29 |
TiagoTiago | lol, alright | 16:29 |
kwtm | MNZ, DocScrutinizer: I see ... so that folder contains all possible *.desktop files, and we let Hildon manage whether it shows up on the desktop or not. Then next question is: where do I find the icon files (presumably *.png files) themselves? The *.desktop files give no pathname, sp presumably there is a default directory. How do I draw my own icon and have it show up on the desktop? | 16:31 |

kwtm | lcuk: I've copied a ".desktop" file to a new version, modified it, and will try adding it to my desktop (via the GUI). In what directory should I put an icon of my own creation so it will become the icon of my new modified app, and show up when I put it on my desktop? | 16:37 |

*** DangerMaus has quit IRC | 16:47 | |
kwtm | TiagoTiago: Remember to make sure you're not in/under the MyDocs directory or somewhere else where it's VFAT. | 16:47 |
TiagoTiago | yep that is the issue :( | 16:47 |
*** DangerMaus has joined #maemo | 16:48 | |
kwtm | Making the MyDocs VFAT may make the N900 more compatible with Windows systems, but it sucks not to be able to take advantage of the Linux filesystem features like permissions and symlinks. | 16:49 |
kwtm | I can't even properly symlink to "~/MyDocs/.documents" from my home directory because of shell problems, and that directory name is a bummer to type out in full each time. | 16:49 |
pupnik_ | yeah what u gonna do | 16:50 |
TiagoTiago | I wonder if it would be too slow to have the N900 emulate a VFAT drive while connected via USB while keeping the actual file system using a better format | 16:50 |
pupnik_ | why not store linux/ext2 metadata in a file on the vfat partition | 16:50 |
kwtm | I tried doing "ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/.documents /home/user/docs", but when I do "cd docs" from home directory, the prompt shows "~/MyDocs/.documents" (even though I'm "really" in ~/docs). | 16:50 |
pupnik_ | it might get out of sync of course | 16:50 |
pupnik_ | but you'd try to update it intelligently | 16:50 |
kwtm | If I then do "cd ..", I jump from "~/MyDocs/.documents" to "~" (even though I only asked to go up one directory level) because I'm actually in "~/docs", not "~/MyDocs/.documents". | 16:51 |
kwtm | I think the solution to all my problems (including that nasty one where the N900 becomes useless until reflashed) is to use Bash instead. I hope there's a package for Bash for N900. | 16:52 |

*** etrunko has joined #maemo | 16:54 | |
DocScrutinizer | kwtm: there is a proper bash package | 16:55 |
DocScrutinizer | kwtm: apt-get install bash | 16:55 |
kwtm | lcuk: ? Not sure what you mean. I think you mean: don't use the MyDocs filesystem and just use the one mounted on root. Agree, but will try to leave that option for later resort and, for now, try to use the system as is. It's not that big of a problem. | 16:55 |
TiagoTiago | is there anything i should know before installing that? | 16:55 |
kwtm | DocScrutinizer: Thanks for the info! | 16:56 |
*** raster has quit IRC | 16:56 | |
lcuk | DocScrutinizer, doesnt bash conflict and stuff, or is that only if you change the default, or has that been fixed now? | 16:56 |
DocScrutinizer | aiui it's only when you change user default shell | 16:57 |
TiagoTiago | ? | 16:57 |
DocScrutinizer | kwtm: nevertheless you probably also want apt-get install coreutils-gnu less findutils... | 16:57 |
*** sge has quit IRC | 16:58 | |

MNZ | There's a de-emphasis filter separate from the effects filter, it's much simpler and with the default coefficients acts as a low-pass filter. This can be "easily" programmed to work as a high pass filter for speaker protection, thus not needing PA equalizer | 18:02 |

MohammadAG | DocScrutinizer, as engineer, shouldn't all CPUs have a damn temperature sensor? | 18:32 |

*** kW has quit IRC | 18:33 | |
*** mirf has joined #maemo | 18:33 | |
DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: for CPUs that *need* active cooling they for sure should have some way to tell system "please more fan" | 18:35 |
pog | I guess, bevor installing rootsh, I try to install an ssh-deamon. | 18:35 |
DocScrutinizer | if the CPU is designed for passive cooling, and has autothrottle to avoid overheating, then a temp sensor isn't mandatory (though nice to have) | 18:36 |
MohammadAG | I doubt a laptop has passive cooling | 18:37 |
xnt14 | Khertan: it works better :) | 18:37 |
MohammadAG | since the fans are actually controlled | 18:37 |
Khertan | xnt14, :) | 18:37 |
DocScrutinizer | usualy not :-D | 18:37 |
Khertan | xnt14, i'm happy to heard that ! | 18:37 |
MohammadAG | but there's nothing in sysfs that shows temp | 18:37 |
DocScrutinizer | then that's a fault of kernel maybe | 18:37 |
xnt14 | Khertan: :) | 18:37 |
xnt14 | MohammadAG: hmm, usually, the bios controls the fans, unless the manufacturer was evil and left it to a proprietay windows software... | 18:38 |
pog | i still have problems to scale the screen, altough there is a yourube-video how to do... | 18:38 |
* DocScrutinizer slaps MohammadAG around with I2Ctools/sensors package | 18:38 | |

*** Rhoruns has joined #maemo | 18:41 | |
DocScrutinizer | It doesn't help to keep the thing in your pocket, you have to *use* it :-P | 18:41 |

MohammadAG | accidentally pull the fan cable | 18:41 |
tobis87 | MohammadAG: run sensors-detect, you might want to load some sensor modules on boot. | 18:42 |
DocScrutinizer | julian__: wasn't that what you wanted? | 18:42 |

ideinit | hello all | 21:04 |
* ideinit I am having issue installing python-setuptools, the error message is " | 21:05 | |
ideinit | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 21:05 |
ideinit | python-setuptools: Depends: python-pkg-resources (= 0.6c9-1maemo2) but it is not installable | 21:05 |
ideinit | E: Broken packages" | 21:05 |
ideinit | can anyone help? | 21:05 |

*** panaggio has quit IRC | 21:07 | |

*** wolf^ has joined #maemo | 21:08 | |
ideinit | tobis87: and I have the extras-devel repository in my sources.list | 21:08 |
tobis87 | you havn't done anything wrong, the package has missing dependency http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras_free_armel/python-setuptools/0.6c9-1maemo2/ | 21:08 |
tobis87 | i don't use it, so it might never had worked... | 21:09 |
ideinit | Actually, I have one device that actually worked | 21:10 |
tobis87 | but it shouldn't be in extras then | 21:10 |
ideinit | perhaps we caught it before it went broken? | 21:10 |
tobis87 | maybe, the missing package was broken, yes you could have got it while the dependency was still met | 21:11 |

jacekowski | that i just ignore the phone | 22:23 |
jacekowski | and then maybe call back later | 22:23 |
jacekowski | so nobody calls me | 22:23 |
Venemo | jacekowski: leash? how so? | 22:23 |
jacekowski | what do you think | 22:24 |
Venemo | jacekowski: to me, it is a tool that helps me stay in touch with people | 22:25 |
tobis87 | Venemo: Getting called, when you are in a situation, where you can't hear the other (football), when it annoys other people (train), on the toilet and relatives ask you if everything is fine (every day), and so on... | 22:25 |
Venemo | jacekowski: haha! it has its downsides | 22:25 |
jacekowski | that's why i have phone always on silent | 22:25 |
Venemo | jacekowski: I simply don't accept calls or take it to offline when I don't want to be called | 22:25 |
jacekowski | except when i expect a call | 22:25 |
Venemo | jacekowski: but it is good to be able to quicly call someone when I need it | 22:26 |
jacekowski | i treat phone like a portable telephone booth | 22:26 |
*** onen|openBmap has joined #maemo | 22:26 | |

steinex | instead just show the screen without blinking? | 22:26 |
jacekowski | no | 22:26 |
jacekowski | that's a bug | 22:27 |
Venemo | steinex: install MohamadAG's fixed Hildon-Desktop | 22:27 |
jacekowski | hmm, it's fixed | 22:27 |
jacekowski | amazing | 22:27 |
Venemo | the bug is fixed, but not yet released by Nokia | 22:27 |
steinex | Venemo: hmm, where can i read more about it? | 22:27 |

crashanddie | MohammadAG51: can you open it? | 23:50 |
MohammadAG51 | Conversations load the db, up to a point where it crashes | 23:50 |
MohammadAG51 | most logs seem undamaged but... can't use conversations, at all | 23:51 |
lcuk | MohammadAG51, copy database onto your desktop and use one of the many sqlite viewing tools | 23:51 |
*** baraujo has quit IRC | 23:51 | |
MohammadAG51 | i copied it to /home for the time | 23:51 |
crashanddie | MohammadAG51: open it using sqlite | 23:52 |
MohammadAG51 | what good is that? | 23:52 |
*** lizardo has quit IRC | 23:52 | |
MohammadAG51 | i want it back on the N900, not on a PC | 23:52 |
*** __a has quit IRC | 23:52 | |
crashanddie | MohammadAG51: sqlite path/to/db "PRAGMA integrity_check" | 23:52 |
*** carloscesa has quit IRC | 23:53 | |
trumee | mintux1: there is a long thread on pptp on t.m.o | 23:53 |
*** zap has quit IRC | 23:53 | |
crashanddie | MohammadAG51: the point is, if you can read it through sqlite, we can fix it | 23:53 |
trumee | mintux1: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=48725 should get you going. | 23:54 |
crashanddie | MohammadAG51: that's why opening it using a sqlite viewing tool is handy | 23:54 |
lcuk | MohammadAG51, open in regular system | 23:54 |
*** th3hate has joined #maemo | 23:54 | |
lcuk | and SEE if theres any visible corruption | 23:54 |
crashanddie | though the integrity_check() should help you understand what the problem is | 23:55 |
lcuk | if you have 60mb of zeros that sweet FA we can do | 23:55 |
trumee | lcuk: does conversation db get slower over time? | 23:55 |
crashanddie | trumee: yes | 23:55 |
trumee | crashanddie: crap! | 23:55 |
lcuk | trumee, all databases get slower *with more content* | 23:55 |
lcuk | they don't however suffer old age unless you add/remove records | 23:55 |
*** dos1 has quit IRC | 23:55 | |
crashanddie | lcuk raises a good point, if you don't have any friends, your db will be very fast! | 23:56 |
Appiah | :D | 23:56 |
trumee | do we need to defrag the vfat partition often? | 23:56 |
crashanddie | no | 23:56 |
Jartza | wow | 23:56 |
lcuk | MohammadAG51, open your database in Microsoft Access, select Compact and Repair :P | 23:56 |
crashanddie | trumee: it's flash, defragmentation doesn't really apply | 23:56 |
Jartza | after 3 weeks of maemo-courses I'm a bit exhausted | 23:56 |
*** millenomi has joined #maemo | 23:57 | |
trumee | crashanddie: flash doesnt suffer from fragmentation? | 23:57 |
crashanddie | Jartza: try maemo-cursing for 2 weeks. | 23:57 |
Jartza | and started to think how strange finnish language actually is | 23:57 |
Zucca | Does anyone know what would be the easiest way to have webcam on N900? Just mjpeg over http would be fine. | 23:57 |
lcuk | trumee, flash almost doesn't care about it | 23:57 |
lcuk | its not like hard drive physical spinning disks | 23:57 |
crashanddie | trumee: there's no disk spinning with a needle having to move around physically | 23:57 |
MohammadAG51 | wow | 23:57 |
lcuk | and time to move heads | 23:57 |
MohammadAG51 | skype's kinda fast | 23:57 |
Jartza | crashanddie: sometimes this teaching makes me wanna curse a low :) | 23:57 |
MohammadAG51 | i guess 12000+ messages do slow it down | 23:57 |
trumee | crashanddie: ah! got it. | 23:57 |
Jartza | finnish is like... condensed efficiency | 23:58 |

crashanddie | lcuk: I'm guessing if you had a very, very big flash chip, like multiple cm or even ft long, fragmentation could be an issue (due to the speed of light) | 23:58 |
Jartza | for example "without a female rider" can be said with one word: "ratsastajattaretta" :) | 23:58 |
Jartza | efficient :D | 23:59 |
lcuk | Jartza, | 23:59 |
Kegetys | cant you still have a file fragmented on multiple flash cells, making the reading slower when you need to read all the cells contents including the data that is not that file | 23:59 |
lcuk | please can you pick my teeth up | 23:59 |
lcuk | i dropped them on the floor trying to say that out loud | 23:59 |
