DocScrutinizer | filter out data from noise? that's by definition impossible, except you'd know what data you expect | 00:00 |
*** X-Fade has joined #maemo | 00:00 | |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: with multiple measurments it's possible | 00:00 |
dotblank | well not really if you have a ceiling on the rate of change | 00:00 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: just you got no multiple measurements | 00:00 |
alterego | Well, almost finished my new config management stuff. | 00:00 |
ShadowJK | I remember an early garmin gps unit with monochrome 128x128 pix display and no maps, when it thought you weren't moving anymore, it started averaging GPS positions to refine your position :) | 00:00 |
jacekowski | well, 400Hz | 00:01 |
jacekowski | that should be good enough | 00:01 |
dotblank | 400hz is alot | 00:01 |
DocScrutinizer | yes, and every single one has noise and data | 00:01 |
dotblank | you would only need like 50hz accurate | 00:01 |
jacekowski | but noise is random | 00:01 |
timeless_pidgin | ShadowJK: cool | 00:01 |
jacekowski | data is constant in that short time frame | 00:01 |

DocScrutinizer | please read the link, instead of asking me to explain to you once again | 00:02 |
jacekowski | no | 00:02 |
Jaffa | X-Fade: Do you know if there's a web site featuring a JavaScript MediaWiki table editor? I get so bored doing big sets of meeting minutes using just the markup (since it's not very intuitive to my HTML-addled brain) | 00:02 |
jacekowski | just random | 00:02 |
ShadowJK | kerio, yeah you want like 3 or 4 gyros too | 00:02 |

ShadowJK | kerio, something like http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=9623 | 00:03 |
jacekowski | 100 readings of same value | 00:03 |
jacekowski | +- random value | 00:03 |

*** Biroo has joined #maemo | 00:04 | |
kerio | jacekowski: depending on how big is the +-random value | 00:04 |
dotblank | yea don't know... | 00:04 |
Biroo | hi every body | 00:04 |
Biroo | is there anyone can help me plz?? | 00:04 |
ShadowJK | kerio, so basically when he threw the quadcopter it was in free fell more or less, accelerometers reading 0,0,0.. it needs the gyros to know what direction it's pointing in | 00:04 |
timeless_pidgin | Doc: what's my next number? :) | 00:05 |
dotblank | ShadowJK, yea I can see that being a problem | 00:05 |
DocScrutinizer | err, 24? | 00:05 |
DocScrutinizer | dunno, timeless_pidgin | 00:05 |
* timeless_pidgin kicks pidgin for having huge fonts and *tiny* smilies | 00:05 | |
hardaker | Biroo: we won't know till ya explain the problem :-) | 00:05 |
dotblank | ShadowJK, I guess if you remembered all the rotations on the object before you through it and during flight untill freefall you could do it but this is pushing the accuracy way way too far | 00:06 |
*** felipec has quit IRC | 00:06 | |
timeless_pidgin | 24. Calendars should properly encode all day events so that when you travel two hours west your "christmas eve day event" doesn't start on December 23rd at 10pm ... | 00:06 |

Biroo | I have a big problem with my Nokia N900 | 00:06 |
Shapeshifter | Biroo: oh noes | 00:06 |
th3hate | Biroo, ask already | 00:07 |
timeless_pidgin | Biroo: but your n900 is small, how can you have a big problem? | 00:07 |
ShadowJK | dotblank: besides, if your axis of rotation goes through the accelerometer it's not going to notice anything | 00:07 |
hardaker | big things come in small packages :-) | 00:07 |
Biroo | I switch it off | 00:07 |
Shapeshifter | and the screen goes black? | 00:07 |
Biroo | and try to switch it on ... nothing happened | 00:07 |
Shapeshifter | D: | 00:07 |
dotblank | ShadowJK, ok good point .. don't through in a such a way.... | 00:08 |
dotblank | lol | 00:08 |
Biroo | I try to do flasher for it... nothing happend | 00:08 |
*** ohwhyme has quit IRC | 00:08 | |
timeless_pidgin | Biroo: take out the battery | 00:08 |
timeless_pidgin | Plug the n900 into a wall charger. | 00:08 |
Biroo | ok | 00:08 |
hardaker | Biroo: you can't flash unless you at least can get it to boot at all. Also, remember you have to hold in the power button for 2-3 seconds before it starts booting. | 00:08 |
Biroo | done | 00:08 |
timeless_pidgin | Plug the wall charger into a live outlet | 00:08 |
DocScrutinizer | insert battery again :-P | 00:08 |
jacekowski | yeah, i've just tried it | 00:08 |
hardaker | (but remove the battery is good) | 00:08 |
timeless_pidgin | Put the battery back in | 00:09 |
timeless_pidgin | Wait. | 00:09 |
timeless_pidgin | Do you see a small light in the corner of the n900? | 00:09 |
Shapeshifter | I see the light, closing in on me D: | 00:09 |
*** larsivi has quit IRC | 00:09 | |
Biroo | no | 00:09 |
tripzero | dont go to the light! | 00:09 |
Biroo | nothing | 00:10 |
Shapeshifter | too late! | 00:10 |
ShadowJK | dotblank, so like theoretically if accelerometer was 100% accurate the dual accelerometer setup like in freerunner, you could see less acc on one meter and more on the other as a sign of rotation | 00:10 |
timeless_pidgin | Ideally the screen should flash a bit and then the light should glow in some pattern... | 00:10 |
jacekowski | assuming that noise is 10% of value | 00:10 |
dotblank | ShadowJK, yea also note there will be centrifugal force | 00:10 |
jacekowski | you would need 10 samples to get it under 2% | 00:10 |
th3hate | Biroo, are you sure the micro usb port isn't broken? | 00:10 |
Biroo | the Nokia word just shown with no light and a small vibration | 00:11 |
*** HarryS has joined #maemo | 00:11 | |
timeless_pidgin | Biroo: that means the usb connection works. | 00:11 |
Biroo | yes I already charge it | 00:11 |
DocScrutinizer | Biroo: so what's the problem. Device booting to Nolo just fine | 00:11 |
jacekowski | 20 samples get it down to ~1.3% | 00:11 |
th3hate | Biroo, did it enter a reboot loop? | 00:11 |
timeless_pidgin | Biroo: wait a bit, press and hold the power key... | 00:11 |
jacekowski | so it's possible to do that stuff with accelerometer | 00:12 |
ShadowJK | oh and also: screw quadcopters, you want single rotors for maximum potential carnage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxLGiHF17uU (this is a human pilot) | 00:12 |
*** ohwhyme has joined #maemo | 00:12 | |
Biroo | yes | 00:12 |
Biroo | a reboot loop | 00:12 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: this only applies for constant input value during tha sampling window | 00:12 |
dotblank | jacekowski, well proving the increased polling rate actually have the device giving new values.. not repeated ones | 00:12 |
th3hate | Biroo, have you tried to flash it with maemo flasher? | 00:12 |
Biroo | yes | 00:12 |
timeless_pidgin | Biroo: removing the battery clears the act-dead bit | 00:12 |
dotblank | providing* | 00:12 |
Biroo | and there is the problem | 00:12 |
timeless_pidgin | It should be possible for you to try to flash it now... | 00:12 |
jacekowski | assuming that noise is 100% of value | 00:12 |
jacekowski | 10 samples get it down to 3% | 00:13 |
th3hate | Biroo, what happens when you try to flash it? | 00:13 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: with 400Hz you can assume that it's constantish | 00:13 |
th3hate | you get "waiting for a suitable device"? | 00:13 |
* Shapeshifter loves devices where you stick some pointy object into a hole and it's like brand new from the factory :D | 00:13 | |
DocScrutinizer | bah | 00:13 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: and reject any values that are too far away from expected value | 00:13 |
DocScrutinizer | omg | 00:13 |
dotblank | jacekowski, yea power limit it.. | 00:13 |
Biroo | the problem here that when I connect it with the USB during the flasher... The Usb shape in the corner of the screen doesn't shown | 00:14 |
jacekowski | and assume that it has changed too much to sample it | 00:14 |
Biroo | and the flasher stop at ... waiting for a suitable devic | 00:14 |
th3hate | Biroo, did you hold the U button while plugging it? | 00:14 |

jacekowski | and i never saw a junction in a tunnel | 00:17 |
crashanddie | jacekowski: the accelerometer is used in turns as well, AFAIK | 00:17 |
Biroo | nothing.. just a reboot loop with no lights and a small vibration | 00:17 |
crashanddie | dead battery | 00:17 |
crashanddie | allow the battery to charge | 00:17 |
th3hate | uhh.. bricked device? | 00:17 |
dotblank | I feel like a polling rate at 400 hz with filters to remove noise could give a fairly accurate reading | 00:17 |
*** paulica has quit IRC | 00:18 | |
ShadowJK | I don't think it gets a net charge whilst reboot-looping :P | 00:18 |
crashanddie | not on the computer, but on the power socket it ought to | 00:18 |
ShadowJK | jacekowski, see this is why I'm not convinced press u halts nolo if battery is low :-) | 00:18 |
jacekowski | well, hmm | 00:19 |
*** ClaesBas has quit IRC | 00:19 | |
hardaker | If the battery is totally dead I've certainly seen it not be willing to boot until plugged in for a while. | 00:19 |
jacekowski | there is workaround for nolo | 00:19 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: you're boring me - come up with a POC simply integrating (and possibly filtering sophistacatedly) the g-meter data, and I'll show you it thinks it's standing still while actually I never stoped moving after I shaked it arounf for 10s | 00:19 |
dotblank | DocScrutinizer, :( but shaking it invokes jerk... I want to start basic and do simple acceleration | 00:19 |
ShadowJK | hardaker, this is not the issue now | 00:20 |
dotblank | DocScrutinizer, not very applicable | 00:20 |
hardaker | ShadowJK: gotcha. | 00:20 |
dotblank | DocScrutinizer, but I'd think it would be cool regardless | 00:20 |
ShadowJK | hardaker, it's booting. It just boots into dead OS, and reboots | 00:20 |

DocScrutinizer | Errors build up, but it's not bad for short periods, 1cm/s^2 of error, with a car going in a straight line at 20m/s, takes a bit over a minute to move from a true direction of northeast - say, to a false direction of northnortheast. (the position is off after this period by a hundred metres or two) | 00:30 |

kwtm | Hi. Is there a reason "less" (the enhanced version of cmd-line util "more") is "extras-devel" rather than "extras-testing" or even "extras"? Is it something technical like "the author should be respond to email quickly" or should I be wary of installing it on my N900? | 01:55 |
MNZ | kwtm, just how much of a danger do you think less can be? | 01:56 |
alterego | Heh | 01:56 |
*** ZogG has quit IRC | 01:56 | |
kwtm | I don't know, but on the other hand I didn't realize that busybox could crash my N900 and make me have to return it to the store. | 01:56 |
*** th3_4zarado has left #maemo | 01:56 | |
alterego | unfortunately extras isn't exactly the repository it should be. | 01:56 |
kwtm | I think the question is, how much of a danger do people think "less" can be that they didn't vote it up to extras-testing? | 01:57 |
alterego | It was probably never promoted | 01:57 |
MNZ | busybox 'crashed' your N900?? Can you tell us more? | 01:57 |
kwtm | MNZ: I would love to, but first here's a riddle: | 01:57 |
*** ZogG has joined #maemo | 01:57 | |
wmarone | kwtm: perhaps because very few people use "less" and even fewer people go and upvote it in the Garage | 01:58 |
kwtm | What software, present on the N900 by default, will be affected by a one-line text file (not present on the N900 by default), so that in the presence of this text file, the N900 cannot boot up properly and must be reflashed? | 01:58 |
kwtm | wmarone: Interesting. If that's the reason, then that's fine. I thought everyone would be using "less" so I wanted to make sure it had no problems. | 01:59 |
kwtm | wmarone: I guess I'm addicted enough to the command-line interface that I really don't want to use "more" more than I have to. | 01:59 |
MNZ | kwtm, I've heard of this.... but darn if I can remember | 01:59 |
kwtm | MNZ: The answer is: "ash" (aka busybox). | 01:59 |
MNZ | oh... ohhhhh XD | 01:59 |
alterego | ashis a symlink to the busybox executable. | 02:00 |
wmarone | kwtm: I suspect a large percentage of the N900 user base actually doesn't use the command line | 02:00 |
kwtm | MNZ: The one-line text file is ~/.profile; if it references a non-existent file, then the startup scripts cause an error that is unrecoverable. | 02:00 |
alterego | tbh, you could get rid of one of a 100 files and the N900 would not boot. | 02:00 |
kwtm | alterego: Correct, but to add your own one-line text file and make it not boot? This one-liner is in your home directory, I should add --not any system directory. | 02:00 |
kwtm | Okay, so if no one knows of any problems with "less" I'll just go ahead and use it. | 02:01 |
alterego | Yeah, when I heard about .profile killing N900's I felt a little scared. | 02:01 |
kwtm | Always a pleasure to ask for help from those with more expertise and experience. | 02:01 |
MNZ | zzziiiiinnnggg | 02:01 |
* MNZ is hurt :'( | 02:01 | |
alterego | Hrm, I'm actually feeling kind of hungry. | 02:02 |
kwtm | alterego: I suspect there's some script that says "If ash returns a non-zero exit value, trigger the error-correcting script! ... which runs on, er, ash. Yeah." | 02:02 |
alterego | I might make some eggs | 02:02 |
*** zutesmog has quit IRC | 02:02 | |
alterego | Yeah, I'm gonna have a fried egg sammich | 02:02 |

*** alextreme has quit IRC | 02:03 | |
asj | I would guess the UI hasn't been ported... | 02:06 |
kwtm | wmarone: I guess. I use the N900 as a "smartphone" a lot and use the GUI that way, but I also have 3 X-Terms open with two instances of vim going. Hmm... | 02:08 |

mece | how the hell do I debug javascript stuff that I use for qml?? | 02:32 |
alterego | If you run qmlviewer from the console, you have debug output. | 02:33 |
alterego | If you run it from the application menu, you can access the debug log from the menu. | 02:33 |
mece | alterego, how do I print something from the javascript file to console? I'm running it from qtcreator | 02:33 |
alterego | Let me check. | 02:34 |
mece | print. Who knew? | 02:34 |
mece | lol. | 02:34 |

alterego | with an opengl backend you're limited to the size of an "imaage" element. | 02:45 |
*** alextreme has joined #maemo | 02:45 | |
alterego | I suppose I should sumbit a bug report or something. | 02:45 |
*** benh has joined #maemo | 02:46 | |
MohammadAG51 | or use a larger image :P | 02:46 |
alterego | Erm, you mean smaller. | 02:46 |
alterego | It's a large image that screws up, because there's not enough memory for the texture in opengles. | 02:46 |
alterego | At least that's my guess ;) | 02:46 |
mece | hmm | 02:47 |
MohammadAG51 | then file a bug | 02:47 |
mece | alterego, hmm.. how do I do a for loop? | 02:47 |
alterego | for( = 0; i < 10; i ++) {} | 02:48 |
alterego | urgh, well, you know, the normal way :P | 02:48 |
mece | ok | 02:48 |
mece | hm | 02:48 |
alterego | Are you trying to programatically generate qml elements from javascript? | 02:49 |
mece | no. | 02:49 |
mece | I'm trying to do a for loop in qml | 02:49 |
mece | alterego, but that would be the alternative | 02:49 |
alterego | Oh, well, it's declarative, you can't really. | 02:49 |
alterego | What does the loop do? Well, what is it supposed to do? | 02:50 |
mece | alterego, display a couple of hundred png's | 02:50 |
alterego | Right, so you are trying to generate qml elements programatically then ;) | 02:51 |
alterego | mece: this might help: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qml-advtutorial.html | 02:52 |
mece | alterego, ah yesh. thanks. | 02:53 |
alterego | mece: and this: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qdeclarativedynamicobjects.html | 02:53 |
mece | alterego, yeah. That's exactly what I needed. Thanks! | 02:55 |
alterego | No problem :) | 02:57 |
*** kwtm has quit IRC | 02:57 | |

ieatlint | want to develop for meego handsets? sure, but only with qemu, and btw you need a nokia n900 in order to get the image ... | 11:38 |
Stskeeps | ieatlint: we've actually fixed that problem ow | 11:39 |
Stskeeps | now | 11:39 |
Stskeeps | nolo gp is redistributable and we had the gles test running on the qemu image | 11:39 |
ieatlint | want to develop for a meego netbook? well, once again, pretty much just linux... and you can either install it on a netbook, do a chroot environment that intel tells me requires the host machine have an intel gma, or use virtualbox -- but oh, btw, if you use virtualbox, you can't actually use the meego ui | 11:39 |
ieatlint | just twm | 11:39 |

MNZ | Stskeeps, nvm :) was just commenting on the state of meego | 11:40 |
Stskeeps | ieatlint: the chroot issue (atom) i fully agree with.. the host machine being intel gma is a stupid phrasing, technically you can drop in your own libGL | 11:41 |
Stskeeps | people already had meego running on nvidia, so | 11:41 |
ieatlint | yeah, i just spent the past 3 days at meego events being run by intel | 11:41 |

MNZ | Stskeeps, the kernel work is pretty much over, a GUI is needed for the EQ though and machine-level drivers are needed to make use of the filter on each specific machine (so for example on n900 we use it for speaker protection, etc) | 11:45 |
MNZ | Which reminds me, is meego using PA as well? | 11:45 |
Stskeeps | MNZ: i think there's a lot of different opinions and a lot of different people who people are unsure of where they are in charge of, makes discussions frustrating (even for someone working on the project). if we ignore the meego part completely, we have audio experts from n900 kernel in #meego-arm and kernel maintainers, so could be cool to hear about your work | 11:45 |
Stskeeps | yes, we are - no other way when it comes to cmtspeech | 11:46 |
Stskeeps | MNZ: we kinda have to work with upstream linux kernel, the meego part is 'just' packaging | 11:46 |

RST38h | Stskeeps: AFAIK the current speaker protection is simply a frequency filter | 11:48 |
MNZ | Stskeeps, I was planning to push to get this into upstream, but I wanted to make sure it's pretty clean first, and there are still some changes to make | 11:48 |
Stskeeps | MNZ: :nod: if you want reviews, we're here :) | 11:48 |
X-Fade | Jaffa: That is not possible as it bypassed the mailer and sent directly to the smarthost. | 11:48 |
MNZ | RST38h, yeah it's a very simple filter. | 11:48 |
*** vanadis has joined #maemo | 11:49 | |
X-Fade | Jaffa: So a gentle "Reminder" mailing would probably be the best solution. | 11:49 |
MNZ | I dumped sine wave sweep from 500hz to 0 into PA and checked out the output. I could easily replicate the filter using the audio codec's features | 11:49 |
Stskeeps | so it sits on top of the current audio codec/driver for n900? | 11:50 |
*** vanadismobile has quit IRC | 11:50 | |
MNZ | Stskeeps, the audio codec does the register setting and all that. How/what you use the filter for depends on the 'machine' driver (alsa SoC drivers are 3 parts, codec -> platform -> machine) | 11:51 |
*** __a|[albsk] has joined #maemo | 11:51 | |
Stskeeps | :nod: | 11:51 |
MNZ | so write now I use the n900 driver (rx51.c) to set the filter up for speaker protection and turn it on automatically if speaker output starts | 11:51 |
*** andrei1089 has quit IRC | 11:51 | |

Stskeeps | we have jarkko nikula / jhnikula sitting in #meego-arm and i think he was very involved with the audio driver in fremantle program and now meego/n900 | 11:52 |

MNZ | Stskeeps, my main aim though is getting rid of PA, and I *think* it's possible, though not that easy, and will save a whole bunch of CPU/power. Problem is, I think a lot of people disagree with that | 11:54 |
dneary | Because they're not being rejected in Maemo | 11:54 |
dneary | I'm going to re-send the lot with a "reminder". | 11:55 |

X-Fade | MNZ: Also think of audio routing for BT etc. | 11:56 |

timeless_pidgin | And the channel list should probably be an overlay of the input area on the right side, tapping it could bring up an overlay of 60 percent of the screen width... | 12:09 |

DocScrutinizer | for packages using the auto-optification option of buildhost (sorry if my wording is odd here, I got abscesses looking into it so am not really familiar with it) it should be rather simple to deoptify | 20:17 |

DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: the whole and only purpose of /usr is to keep it on a separate drive that may fail and still system is maintainable by root via console | 20:29 |
felipec | MNZ: doesn't look like that... on a MeeGo system | 20:30 |
ShadowJK | well with the security framework in place user's nuking their os will be reduced somewhat I'd think :D | 20:31 |

*** Vanadis has joined #maemo | 20:32 | |

*** Bash has joined #maemo | 20:44 | |

*** dailylinux has joined #maemo | 20:45 | |
DocScrutinizer | honestly I guess I could sanitize the whole thing with ~5 cmdlines | 20:46 |

ShadSEC2 | Docscrutinizer, now that sounds much more complicated and prone to error... one of the beauty of the union approach is that you could always get rid of the overlay file and boot a perfectly clean new system | 20:50 |
ShadSEC2 | docscrutinizer, you mean a PR update or something? | 20:51 |
DocScrutinizer | how'd you handle files that get modifications during mini_fo mounted, but those mods needed during next boot early when it's not yet ? | 20:51 |

DocScrutinizer | ShadSEC2: honestly, a botch over a botch invented to fix a botch isn't a smart solution ever | 20:52 |
ShadSEC2 | DocScrutinizer,mmm, it doesnt work that way.. either you boot with the overlay, or you boot with the original untouched os | 20:53 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadSEC2: sorry you lost me | 20:53 |
ShadSEC2 | well, probably not, i am just asking... it works so well in openwrt... | 20:53 |
*** Xisdibik_ has joined #maemo | 20:54 | |
ShadSEC2 | I mean that IF there are modifications to base files, they will be lost if you boot without the overlay | 20:54 |
*** kwtm has quit IRC | 20:54 | |
*** kwtm has joined #maemo | 20:54 | |
DocScrutinizer | exactly, and you always boot without the overlay, as first and only thing bootloader passes to kernel is the rootfs | 20:55 |
*** Xisdibik_ has quit IRC | 20:55 | |
ShadSEC2 | probably that unaceptable | 20:55 |
*** Dantonic has quit IRC | 20:56 | |
*** crashanddie has joined #maemo | 20:57 | |
DocScrutinizer | whenever init system is able to mount the overlay, it as well can mount a simple classical /usr partition | 20:57 |
ShadSEC2 | the idea is to boot with ubifs+overlay... always.. except IF you want to begin with a new clean system | 20:57 |
*** Xisdibik has quit IRC | 20:57 | |
ShadSEC2 | yes | 20:57 |
ShadSEC2 | but, there are advantages | 20:57 |
*** lolloo has quit IRC | 20:57 | |
bergie | GAN900: I can understand that people are confused as we usually represent ourselves as individuals in Maemo circles :-) But yeah, it is a company... http://nemein.com/en/ | 20:57 |
ShadSEC2 | 1) the original base is always there, untouched | 20:57 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadSEC2: so how do you patch nolo to make it tell kernel to mount a rootfs that's actually a unionfs? | 20:58 |
DocScrutinizer | (while I really doubt kernel can do that anyway) | 20:58 |
ShadSEC2 | 2) Not only you dont need to care about optifiying, you in fact dont need to care about some rogue program overfilling / with a log or something (Ie: fring... It was doing a huge log just in /) | 20:59 |
DocScrutinizer | whatever, that's quite obviously a lot more complex than a /usr partition on eMMC | 20:59 |
ShadSEC2 | sorry for my ignorance but.. what nolo? | 20:59 |
MNZ | NOkia LOader | 20:59 |
ShadSEC2 | it the bootloader or something? | 20:59 |

bergie | GAN900: if I were starting business now, I'd choose an easier name ;-) | 21:05 |
ShadSEC2 | docscrutinizer, let me look for it, it has been some time i dont play with that in openwrt | 21:05 |
ShadSEC2 | but if memory doesnt fail, i think it was probably doing part of the boot from real / and then doing a remount | 21:06 |
ShadSEC2 | better let me check... | 21:06 |
DocScrutinizer51 | ShadSEC2: that's exactly what I expected and answered above all the time. You never boot with mini_fo, you never know for sure if files are accessed old version before it is mounted later, you always can mount /usr same moment mini_fs is mounted | 21:08 |
DocScrutinizer51 | so mini_fs isn't really a simpler solution than a /usr partition | 21:09 |

*** AD-N770 has quit IRC | 21:10 | |
ShadSEC2 | yes, it boots from a squashfs (READ ONLY), later in the boot sequence mounts another partition and then call fopivot that presents / as the combination of the squashfs + overlay | 21:10 |

*** mc_teo` has joined #maemo | 23:33 | |
mc_teo` | so | 23:33 |
mc_teo` | cross compiling | 23:33 |
mc_teo` | i cant do it | 23:33 |
lcuk | get angry first | 23:33 |
E0x | heh | 23:33 |
*** hannesw has joined #maemo | 23:34 | |
mc_teo` | so you do know does native compiling on n900 have much overhead, cpu rape, etc | 23:34 |
lcuk | sure | 23:34 |
*** ftrvxmtrx has quit IRC | 23:34 | |
lcuk | my apps compile from source on n900 in about 10 seconds | 23:34 |
lcuk | thats c source | 23:35 |
lcuk | takes longer as more libs and dependencies are needed | 23:35 |
mc_teo` | and like additional libs, etc dont take up loads of rootfs and other space | 23:35 |
lcuk | yes they sure do | 23:35 |
lcuk | so keep things small and light | 23:36 |
mc_teo` | thats what i wanted to avoid | 23:36 |
lcuk | i just optified the include folder | 23:36 |
*** juliank has quit IRC | 23:36 | |
mc_teo` | did that help? | 23:36 |
lcuk | but really a build of "build-essential" should be made to be optified - so gcc etc was also optified | 23:37 |
lcuk | mc_teo`, i built on my n900 from day 1 with it | 23:37 |
lcuk | i need to go back to doing that soon | 23:37 |
mc_teo` | so it is optified, or should be? | 23:37 |
*** killeus has quit IRC | 23:37 | |
lcuk | no mc_teo` | 23:37 |
mc_teo` | isnt there like a vm image somewhere with it all working? | 23:38 |
lcuk | yes | 23:38 |
lcuk | scratchbox | 23:38 |
mc_teo` | i use windows | 23:38 |
lcuk | if you have ubuntu its pretty much painless if networks are happy | 23:38 |
lcuk | windows there is an out of date vmware image | 23:39 |
mc_teo` | i can use ubuntu on vmware, if it makes much difference | 23:39 |
lcuk | its good to get started with, but the scratchbox inside needs updating | 23:39 |
*** Erod has quit IRC | 23:39 | |
lcuk | anyway, i am sure someone else will show you where the oldish vmware image is, it seems theres a problem with a newer image being missing | 23:40 |
lcuk | i tihnk someone said they were going to have a go at updating it | 23:40 |
* lcuk goes n codes | 23:40 | |

kerio | ~optification | 23:41 |
infobot | methinks optification is 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_MyDocs | 23:41 |
