Jartzaresistance is futile00:00
tobis87SpeedEvil: I wouldn't know how to use or program a buffer with garbage collection... All I ask about is, is there already something done, which could break, if I put an encryption layer between swap use and the disk access.00:00
tobis87or fs and disk00:01
SpeedEvilNo, it will just work.00:01
SpeedEvilIt may not be fast, but meh.00:01
tobis87ok, i'm just scared about all this aligment stuff00:01
JartzaI'm slowly assimilating Finnish mobile-development companies00:02
tobis87since i first read about the new harddrives and now the same stuff in real.00:02

DocScrutinizerblizzow3: (no sluggishness in BB mail) haha, it cheats. It downloads and presents first mail, and then in background downloads the rest (at least that's what I've heard, never even touched such critter). So yeah, it *looks* fast, but don't think about switching immediately to msg #2 :-P00:16

DocScrutinizerlcuk: (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 lost00:30
*** kthomas has joined #maemo00:32
DocScrutinizerseems a lot of programs work that way. xchat the same, obviously00:32
*** kthomas_vh_ has quit IRC00:33
*** dailylinux has quit IRC00:33
DocScrutinizerit's actually a very bad practice, as all 'edits' the process does 'locally' during runtime are lost if process terminates ungracefully00:34

*** aloisiojr has quit IRC00:50
DocScrutinizerread-modify-write on every change would be much saner00:51
DocScrutinizer*especially* on a mobile device00:52
* DocScrutinizer should post some best practice recommendation regarding that00:53
*** rblank has quit IRC00:53

lcukDocScrutinizer, thats an organisational issue too01:01
lcukbecause active external monitoring of config changes alters the app flow01:01
jacekowskithat's why irssi have /save01:02
*** tobis87 has left #maemo01:05
DocScrutinizerlcuk: 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-destructor01:05
DocScrutinizerjacekowski: a /save is sane, if app *only* saves on /save01:06
*** wazd has quit IRC01:06
jacekowskiwell, thing is that saving everything everytime you modify something is just a waste01:06
DocScrutinizerif, however, app saves on quit _sometimes_, depending on lateral conditions of particular quit, that's bad01:07
DocScrutinizerno matter if there's also a /save or not01:07
lcukPEBKAC :P01:07
*** Funnyface has quit IRC01:08
lcukyou know it happens, so shutdown xchat when you are messing01:08
DocScrutinizerBS! I don't want to shutdown xchat to save changes :-S01:08
DocScrutinizerI even received spanking on IRC because of doing that, in an extended way01:09
jacekowskiwell, irssi is asking on quite if you want to save or not01:10
jacekowskiif there were any changes01:10
jacekowskiirssi ftw01:10
DocScrutinizerjacekowski: what help is this, when device shuts down hard due to bat low or whatever01:10
tremnite all, sweet dreams01:11
*** trem has quit IRC01:11
*** mitsutaka has quit IRC01:12
DocScrutinizeras a general rule, on a mobile device you SHALL keep everything as persistent as possible, and flush early and often, as you MUST NOT expect a sane clean system shutdown01:12
DocScrutinizer~211901:12
infobotThe key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED",  "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.01:12

*** Flanbix has quit IRC01:15
*** Funnyface has joined #maemo01:15
satmdI'd replace everything by non-temporary data, but I agree :)01:16
DocScrutinizerjacekowski: (waste) how much waste can this be, reading a <5k config file, and writing it back - every once in a few hours?01:16
luke-jrugh01:16
luke-jrhow do I get networking inside qemu-maemo?01:16
jacekowskiimagine 100s of programs doing that01:16
satmduhm, I guess it uses atime01:16
DocScrutinizerwhat exactly are you wasting doing that?01:16
*** __a has quit IRC01:17
satmdatime/stat is cheap01:17
DocScrutinizerjacekowski: ther's no config changes in 100s of programs concurrently01:17
luke-jrlol01:17
luke-jrI would hope N900 doesn't support atime01:17
*** SWFu has joined #maemo01:17
DocScrutinizersure it supports atime. Just drives a monted noatime01:18

loufoqueis there a way for games to install themselves to the eMMC? I'm out of memory on my rootfs01:18
jacekowski-nic something01:18
jacekowskilike in normal qemu i would expect01:18
jacekowskiloufoque: oO01:18
satmd-net nic01:18
luke-jrjacekowski: Maemo doesn't support NICs does it?01:18
jacekowskiloufoque: do you have PR1.2?01:19
loufoqueyes01:19
satmdand maybe -net user for the other end01:19
jacekowskiluke-jr: it should01:19
luke-jrhrm01:19
luke-jrdo I need to load some module?01:19
DocScrutinizerloufoque: yes, it's called optification01:19
jacekowskiwith bit of trickery and modules01:19
jacekowskiDocScrutinizer: it should be done with unionfs01:19
loufoque/opt isn't on the eMMC as far as I can see01:19
jacekowskithat's my opinion01:19
jacekowskiloufoque: it should be01:19
DocScrutinizerloufoque: it is01:20
*** Flanbix has joined #maemo01:20
*** zap has quit IRC01:20
loufoqueoh right, /home/opt on /opt01:20
DocScrutinizer~optification01:20
infobotoptification is probably a inventive duct tape workaround to reclaim space in fs root, done due to the fact the partitioning is FUBAR, or http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Packaging,_Deploying_and_Distributing/Installing_under_opt_and_MyDocs01:20
loufoquebut I've got much more space on /home/user/MyDocs01:22
loufoquewhy can't I just use that space01:22
*** kthomas has joined #maemo01:22
jacekowskibecause it's vfat01:22
jacekowskinot compatible01:22
DocScrutinizerloufoque: please read the page infobot posted URL above. It's all in there01:23
*** vanadismobile has joined #maemo01:24
loufoquecouldn't I just format it to ext301:25
loufoqueand put everything on one big partition01:25
DocScrutinizernope, as that will break things01:25
DocScrutinizerthere are a few things in maemo that expect to see a vfat there01:26
*** mardy has quit IRC01:27
jacekowskihmm, but he could resize it01:27
*** Flanbix has quit IRC01:27
*** pinheiro has quit IRC01:28
DocScrutinizerNokia could have sanitized the whole optification madness with PR1.2, but they were so happy with their inventive duct tape botch so they will most likely keep it forever now, maybe even migrate the concept to meego as it panned out so incredibly great01:28

DocScrutinizerwhy 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 introduced01:31
*** HarryS has quit IRC01:32
DocScrutinizerback in the 1960s01:32
*** Flanbix has joined #maemo01:32
DocScrutinizerUnix System Resources: all the executables and other system resources not needed for core boot to single user mode. Kept un usr/ to allow a separate drive that may even fail and system still can boot to service mode01:34
*** Ryback_ has quit IRC01:37
DocScrutinizernow if you create a distry and have nfc about such things, and dare to rely on usr/ in your init scripts, then umm what should unix gurus call you?01:37
DocScrutinizerthen if you go on and instead of fixing the root cause, throw out everything needed for boot from usr/ and keep it in bin/ and sbin/ etc instead, where it belongs according to FHS, and rather invent a thing called 'optification'... :-x01:40

DocScrutinizeryeah, instead of moving 10 files from /usr/bin to /bin, we now have 942++ symlinks from /usr/bin to /opt/usr/bin and only 10 real files in /usr/bin. *GREAT*01:46

loufoque942++ is 94201:54
loufoquedoesn't really make sense actually, ++ only works on lvalues01:55
DocScrutinizerand - btw - those mentioned 10 files are the exact 10 files that don't belong there. But who cares, as /usr also doesn't belong where it actually is :-P01:55
MohammadAG51hmm01:56
MohammadAG51wget, zip, and unrar don't seem to be optified01:56
DocScrutinizerprobably messybox needs them to start init :-P01:57
MNZCan someone explain what the correct answer to this fiasco (pun intended. sue me) of an FS is?01:57
zeltakevening guys..im kinda worried..i started logging my crahses/reboots when using emulators and got card I/O errors: http://pastebin.ca/192914901:57
*** florian has quit IRC01:57
zeltakit only happens when using emultaors..does that mean my internal memory is screwed?01:58
MohammadAG51DocScrutinizer, lol they're not on the stock firmware :p01:58
DocScrutinizerMNZ: please rephrase01:58
MNZThe whole symlink hell and optification that nokia invented, what was the simpler answer to the problem they solved? Actually, scratch that, someone remind me what the problem is/was again.01:59
*** baraujo has quit IRC02:00
DocScrutinizerthe problem is [2010-08-31 00:18:46] <loufoque> is there a way for games to install themselves to the eMMC? I'm out of memory on my rootfs02:00
MNZno no I mean the *problem* that nokia faced which they solved with the whole optification thing.02:01
MohammadAG51256MB rootfs02:01
DocScrutinizerfillup of 235MB NAND rootfs, due to /usr living on NAND02:01
MNZand /usr cannot live on eMMC?02:02
DocScrutinizersure it can, and it SHALL02:02
MohammadAG51it _can_, but the eMMC is slower02:02
MohammadAG51i don't mind shoving maemo 5 on the emmc02:02
*** raulfh has joined #maemo02:02
MohammadAG51DocScrutinizer, did you see egoshin's eMMC scripts?02:02
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG51: uhuh, so when calling it opt and symlinking it, it gets considerably faster, no?02:03
MNZMohammadAG51, so the solution for a slow /usr is to use /opt (on eMMC!) and symlink stuff :/ ?02:03
Macerugh02:03
Macertrying to find the latest nitdroid rootfs02:03
*** mitsutaka has quit IRC02:03
MohammadAG51hey, i didn't invent scotch tape02:03
MNZjust so we are clear, that last thing I said *is* actually what happened?!? I was sorta joking...02:04

MohammadAG51hmm02:05
*** chenca has quit IRC02:05
MohammadAG51how does maemo 5 handle mmc crap?02:05
*** lmoura has quit IRC02:05
MohammadAG51on ubuntu, mmcblk0 is the microSD02:05
MohammadAG51same with nitdroid fedora etc..02:05
MohammadAG51but on maemo 5 it's mmcblk102:05
DocScrutinizerit's renamed sometime during boot iirc02:06
MNZIMHO if there's going to be a PR1.3 it shouldn't be out without a sane answer to the limited nand space02:06
MohammadAG51so, assuming maemo 5 is moved to the eMMC, or the microSD, would it rename them?02:06
DocScrutinizerthe answer is optification, according to nokia02:06
MohammadAG51i'm thinking of backing up my shit then moving maemo 5 and adding a bootmenu entry02:07
DocScrutinizerMohammadAG51: you can ask questions :-P02:07
MohammadAG51problem is02:07
*** chenca has joined #maemo02:07
MohammadAG51the bootmenu is on the rootfs02:08
MohammadAG51hmm, the OneNAND is fast, can it be used as swap?02:08
MohammadAG51theoritically02:08
DocScrutinizeryep02:08

MohammadAG51yeah jacekowski, i know02:13
zeltakshit....anyone knows how does one procced in the USA? does nokia have serice points here02:13
DocScrutinizerzeltak: first try a reflash of eMMC02:13
*** Transformer has quit IRC02:13
*** mardy has joined #maemo02:13

MohammadAG51not on the N90002:14
zeltakthx DocScrutinizer i will..i actually reflashed a few days ago..wait so the mmcnlk0 i the emmc?02:14
DocScrutinizeryep02:14
zeltakahh i see..ok i will flash it again but after that is there a badblocks or any other test to run to check the memory?02:15
DocScrutinizerm*ulti-m*edia-c*ard-002:15
zeltakgotcha02:15
DocScrutinizerdetecting bad blocks on a mmc isn't exactly simple02:16
*** dvoid_ has quit IRC02:16
zeltaki see so how does one know if the emmc is defective?02:16
jacekowskihmm, but nand controller should pick it up02:16
MohammadAG51reflash would fail02:16
DocScrutinizeras there's not supposed to be any exposed to 'outside world - mmc controller should handle that internally02:16
MNZDocScrutinizer, 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
zeltakMohammadAG51: was you referring to my case when you said reflash will fail?02:17

jacekowskiis that memory so worn that it's not usable anymore02:19
DocScrutinizerunlikely02:20
*** lmoura has joined #maemo02:20
DocScrutinizercould be early defect02:20

zeltaki see thx for the tips02:23
zeltakso first root without -R and then the emmc02:23
DocScrutinizerI'd do it other way round, but in the end without -R it doesn't matter02:24
*** FireFly has quit IRC02:24

lcukor something like that03:18
DocScrutinizerthere's been even a competiton afternoon here some time ago, who's got the least number of bad blocks on NAND03:19
SpacedOutlcuk: 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 #maemo03:19

luke-jrMNZ: 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 start03:31
luke-jrMNZ: 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/video03:32
*** blizzow1 has quit IRC03:32

*** sulx has joined #maemo11:53
DocScrutinizerbut then, you most probably got powerkernel compatible modules, and there's no powerkernel image to flash via flasher afaik11:54

DocScrutinizerbut I could be wrong on that11:56

johnxDocScrutinizer, 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 confused11:59
johnxStskeeps, aaah, awesome. I totally forgot the N900 doesn't normally use u-boot12:00
DocScrutinizerjohnx: hmm, you might be right12:00
Stskeepsjohnx: best part is that n8x0 might be able to do it too :P12:00
Stskeepsand we've all been idiots for not discovering this earlier ;)12:00
johnxyou just have to tell flasher-3.5 that you're handing it a plain kernel image with -k12:00
johnxStskeeps, >_< (that's if the N8x0 could do that all along)12:00

kwtmHi.  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

*** Venemo has left #maemo16:17
lcukkwtm, if you want to change the theme, investigate and install a few pre made themes, they often come with icons16:17
TiagoTiagoI think the dashboard is when you see the miniatures of the programs running16:17
lcukthen use one of those to modify16:17
lcukdashboard is the running app list16:18
TiagoTiagothere are the home screens, the app menu, and the dashboard, or am i wrong?16:18

kwtmMNZ, 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

TiagoTiagoyep that is the issue :(16:47
*** DangerMaus has joined #maemo16:48
kwtmMaking 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
kwtmI 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 do16:50
TiagoTiagoI 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 format16:50
pupnik_why not store linux/ext2 metadata in a file on the vfat partition16:50
kwtmI 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 course16:50
pupnik_but you'd try to update it intelligently16:50
kwtmIf 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
kwtmI 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

kwtmlcuk: ? 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

MNZThere'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 equalizer18:02
DocScrutinizerMNZ: yup, I know18:03

MNZDocScrutinizer, I already tried the filter, with the default coeffs18:05

tobis87Venemo: 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
Venemojacekowski: haha! it has its downsides22:25
