Jartza | if it decreases latency, I wouldn't say it is a problem encountered by extremely few users? | 00:06 |
Jartza | and you haven't experienced high "desktop" latency in n900? | 00:06 |
nox- | that more bc of swapping that bc of load tho? | 00:07 |
nox- | thats | 00:07 |

jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: i mean is it's purpose to stabilise it | 00:36 |
DocScrutinizer | crashanddie: whom? andtrax? don't care | 00:36 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: or provide position | 00:36 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: stabilize | 00:37 |
*** nox- has quit IRC | 00:37 | |
jacekowski | but then any angle change will be slower | 00:37 |
*** nox-- is now known as nox- | 00:37 | |
pupnik | i think you do need gyros and altitude for any autonomous flight | 00:37 |
jacekowski | ground proximity sensor | 00:37 |
jacekowski | that's all you need | 00:38 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: a gyro is much more sensitive to rotation than a g-meter. For some rotations (along axis of earth gravitation) the gyro is the only sensor that gives you signals at all | 00:38 |
crashanddie | jacekowski: can't a gyro tell you the absolute rotation movement? | 00:38 |

DocScrutinizer | Lidar with a laser is dead simple | 00:47 |
DocScrutinizer | no parabolic needed | 00:47 |
ShadowJK | newer radar has phased array. It's still a beam, but it's electronically scanned and not limited by physical antenna movement | 00:47 |

ShadowJK | crashanddie, I'd want ot make my own, but instead of just one laser (that sets fire to everything else too), I'd want multiple lasers focusing on the mosquito | 00:48 |

DocScrutinizer | yes, irreco | 01:13 |
Lantizia | or an alternative of some kind - a search on maemo.org for IR only comes up with that... and nothing for infra or infrared | 01:13 |
nox- | heh same mistake i did :) | 01:14 |
Lantizia | DocScrutinizer, package irreco-for-n900 ? is that with a front end? | 01:14 |
DocScrutinizer | though, tbh, I never tested qtirreco | 01:14 |
DocScrutinizer | yes | 01:15 |
nox- | (tho irreco also didnt help in this case) | 01:15 |
Lantizia | cool will take a looksie | 01:15 |
DocScrutinizer | both are based on lirc, and lirc can do what the N900 CIR hw offers you can do, nothing beyond | 01:16 |
nox- | yep | 01:16 |
DocScrutinizer | so if it's about GUI, then test irreco-n900, if it's about range, you got bad cards | 01:16 |

DocScrutinizer | honestly, the whole design around the IR TX looks rather uninspired. If you already got a transistor, then why have a series R in collector, rather than do the right thing and build a constant current source of it, by limiting base voltage by 2 diodes and putting the shunt R into emitter | 01:32 |

jase21 | I'm loving it. | 03:06 |
*** _Rui_ has joined #maemo | 03:06 | |
lolloo | you will soon when you unlock and harness it's geekness power | 03:07 |
SpeedEvil | :) | 03:07 |
jase21 | lolloo thanks. | 03:07 |
SpeedEvil | Are you a linux user? | 03:07 |
*** Lantizia has quit IRC | 03:08 | |
jase21 | SpeedEvil yes | 03:08 |
lolloo | wow nice | 03:08 |
SpeedEvil | Now tends to be a bit dead - it's livlier in here about 4 hours ago. | 03:08 |
jase21 | I use ubuntu & backtrack. but still I'm a newbie :P | 03:08 |
SpeedEvil | So leap in that time machine. | 03:08 |
lolloo | hehehe | 03:09 |
lolloo | ah the time machine | 03:09 |
jase21 | what does PR mean: | 03:09 |
psycho_oreos | product release | 03:09 |
lolloo | latest 1.3 | 03:09 |
lolloo | also there is custom kernels made by the community | 03:10 |
jase21 | oh. okay. How to know which one I'm running? | 03:10 |
lolloo | latest power 46 | 03:10 |
jase21 | yes | 03:10 |
psycho_oreos | jase21, go into settings > about product | 03:10 |
jase21 | ok | 03:10 |
jase21 | ok | 03:11 |
jase21 | it shows 1.004? | 03:11 |
jase21 | is there a version like that? | 03:12 |
psycho_oreos | sounds either old or incomplete version string | 03:12 |
psycho_oreos | PR1.3 has version string of: 20.2010.36-2 | 03:13 |
*** WakiMiko has quit IRC | 03:13 | |
*** hardaker has joined #maemo | 03:14 | |
jase21 | OMG the full string is: 10.2010.19-1.004 | 03:14 |
*** hardaker has quit IRC | 03:15 | |
jase21 | is it incompatibe version :worried? | 03:15 |
psycho_oreos | no its probably older | 03:16 |
Termana | psycho_oreos, 36-2? | 03:16 |
Termana | psycho_oreos, STOP USING NON-GLOBAL FIRMWARE | 03:16 |
* Termana slaps psycho_oreos with some global firmware | 03:16 | |
psycho_oreos | PR1.2 you have jase21 only one version below | 03:17 |
psycho_oreos | Termana, apparently that was available over OTA upgrade, not that I have had a choice and I wanted to stick on PR1.2 :) the repo forced me to get PR1.3 | 03:17 |
jase21 | kok | 03:17 |
Termana | jase21, you have the india version of PR 1.2 | 03:18 |
jase21 | but before updating, i would want to do a whole system backup. is backup tp a computer harddisk possible | 03:18 |
*** n6pfk has joined #maemo | 03:19 | |
Termana | jase21, I suggest you flash it to a global firmware 1.2 or global 1.3 firmware - but that's just me. | 03:19 |
psycho_oreos | Termana, and apparently 36-2 is just the firmware version, not the non-global version :) check here: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php | 03:19 |
jase21 | ok | 03:19 |
psycho_oreos | you could probably tarball the entire sysfs directory into /home/user/MyDocs or install backupmenu v2 which is still under testing the last I recall | 03:20 |
Termana | psycho_oreos, hmm, looks like they changed the version numbering system for 1.3 | 03:21 |
jase21 | does the in buit backup do system wide backup? | 03:22 |
psycho_oreos | Termana, well in either case there's no easy way for me to find out if I have global release or not. I suspect I would at any rate anyway | 03:22 |
psycho_oreos | no | 03:22 |
Termana | jase21, no, it will backup your Documents (IIRC) and the app list and it will reinstall your apps on restore | 03:22 |
psycho_oreos | documents and settings mainly, contacts, IM, etc | 03:22 |
jase21 | oh. so i need to install rootsh to do sys backups | 03:23 |
psycho_oreos | if you intend to work with n900's keyboard in writing out the tarball creation process | 03:24 |
*** BabelO has quit IRC | 03:24 | |
Termana | jase21, installing rootsh isn't such a bad thing anyway. If you're a normal linux user I would expect you want root access on your device anyway | 03:25 |
jase21 | yes. Do you have any guide or recommendation on system backup? | 03:25 |
psycho_oreos | chances are, if you're not familiar with maemo's rootfs structure you are going to end up with a very large tarball. I reasonably sized tarball of sysfs minus MyDocs is around 1.9GB | 03:25 |
psycho_oreos | a more clean and intuitive backup than osso-backup would be backupmenu v2 | 03:26 |
jase21 | oh. I have no idea on maemo OS architecture | 03:26 |
psycho_oreos | s/I/A | 03:26 |
jase21 | ok | 03:26 |
*** BCMM has quit IRC | 03:27 | |

psycho_oreos | define distribution | 03:35 |
jase21 | fremantle version when we add in that repo link in app manager | 03:36 |
jase21 | it depends on the PR version. | 03:36 |
psycho_oreos | read what I said previously, your PR version was already mentiond | 03:37 |
*** hcm has quit IRC | 03:37 | |
jase21 | ok, guys got it. its 1.2 :D | 03:39 |
jase21 | And the repo is already added with the name maemo.org doh :D | 03:39 |
*** n6pfk has quit IRC | 03:40 | |
psycho_oreos | scroll down on the same page for more repos | 03:40 |
psycho_oreos | more official ones | 03:40 |
jase21 | ok. | 03:41 |
jase21 | do you use any irc clients (app) in N900? | 03:42 |
jase21 | other than pidgin | 03:42 |
tristan__ | i just ssh. | 03:42 |
*** mveplus has quit IRC | 03:42 | |
psycho_oreos | there's xchat and irssi | 03:43 |
tristan__ | does the irssi have perl yet, it seemed kind of crippled last time. | 03:43 |
*** Jucato_ has quit IRC | 03:43 | |
jase21 | are they native to maemo? | 03:43 |

jase21 | ok. | 03:44 |
*** Jucato_ has joined #maemo | 03:44 | |
psycho_oreos | I dunno I hardly use irssi on n900 much | 03:44 |
jase21 | then I'll try make an IRC client excusicely for maemo (as part of my learning purpose). | 03:45 |

jase21 | sorry (not used to m) | 03:46 |
SpeedEvil | A nice backend for ... | 03:46 |
SpeedEvil | um | 03:46 |
SpeedEvil | what's that client | 03:46 |
SpeedEvil | quassel | 03:46 |
jase21 | not used to the new keyboard | 03:46 |
jase21 | so i'm typing out errors | 03:46 |
SpeedEvil | I've got up to about 30wpm on it (not now) when I used it consistently for a week | 03:46 |
jase21 | yes, will require some time to get faster. | 03:47 |
jase21 | if I get stuck somewhere is this the place to ask about programming? or maemo-dev? | 03:48 |
SpeedEvil | maemo-dev is probably sane | 03:49 |

BCMM_ | xchat is nice on the n900, but it really needs kinetic scroll | 03:53 |
BCMM_ | it isn't really scrolable without the stylus | 03:54 |
tristan__ | its abuot the most bearable xchat has ever been honestly. | 03:54 |
Funnyface | -_- my phone won't boot after a reflash | 03:55 |
Funnyface | it just displays "missing image" on the display | 03:56 |
Funnyface | well I guess I have to start over again then | 03:56 |
SpeedEvil | BCMM_: I've bound shift-up/down to pgup/down | 03:57 |
SpeedEvil | you can also use the volume buttons | 03:58 |
SpeedEvil | but I like them for channel up/down | 03:58 |

*** Jucato_ has joined #maemo | 04:00 | |
Funnyface | hmm well it booted now.. | 04:01 |
Funnyface | first I flashed the firmware image, then it booted fine.. then I flashed the emmc image, and it didn't work.. then I started over again with the firmware image, and now it works | 04:01 |
Funnyface | so I guess I will just leave it at that then | 04:01 |

DocScrutinizer | BCMM_: (xchat) I currently ponder mapping up/down to scrolling in xchat, as you rarely ever need it for input box history. I'll use shift-up/down for that | 04:10 |
BCMM_ | good idea actually; i mostly use up arrow to inadvertantly doublepost | 04:12 |
DocScrutinizer | Funnyface: you MUST flash rootfs *after* eMMC, or/and MUST NOT boot device after flashing eMMC | 04:12 |
DocScrutinizer | err, ...after flashing rootfs | 04:13 |
DocScrutinizer | whatever, NO boot after flashing the first one and prior to flashing the second one | 04:13 |
DocScrutinizer | except if you flash eMMC first, where it will refuse to boot anyway, until you flashed rootfs as well | 04:14 |
BCMM_ | , | 04:14 |
Funnyface | alright, this place suggested that I did the firmware first, and the OS booted automatically | 04:17 |
Funnyface | but I think it is fixed now anyway | 04:17 |
DocScrutinizer | the suggested "mandatory" sequence of rootfs/COMBINED/fiasko first, *then* eMMC/VANILLA as of wiki - is BS for all images up to date (though it *might* be needed any time in the future, for 1.7.3 :-P) Alas my edits to wiki, which were wellthought and backed up by asking others like e.g lcuk (father of optification afaik) got ruthlessly reverted by somebody who thought he knows better | 04:18 |

DocScrutinizer | and how's that interesting to anybody? esp to me? | 04:20 |
DocScrutinizer | the wiki is clear about the "DO NOT boot" part. If you follow the wiki exactly, it will work | 04:21 |
Funnyface | I wouldn't have done it if the phone didn't boot by itself after the flash :> | 04:21 |
*** crashanddie has quit IRC | 04:22 | |
Funnyface | either way, it is all good now :p | 04:25 |
DocScrutinizer | yeah, the -R is making it reboot | 04:25 |

gustavoferreira | i want to install octave on my n900, i've reading, and people said that octave has been ported to maemo, but i can't find the deb file, they said it was on extra-devel repo, but i can't manage to get that :s any help? | 05:12 |
opdf2 | I'm gonna ignore it | 05:13 |
gustavoferreira | one more question, why doesn't this channel have at least an Ops (whatever that means) here? | 05:13 |
*** Diod has quit IRC | 05:13 | |
Termana | gustavoferreira, why would you ask why the channel doesn't have something that you don't understand anyway? | 05:14 |
gustavoferreira | xD lol because i think ops means something like an "admin" on the channel | 05:14 |
gustavoferreira | opdf2, fell free to ignore, just don't be rude saying that | 05:14 |
Termana | And the answer to that question is - it's standard on freenode for chanops to only give themselves op privileges when necessary, other times they just leave them off | 05:15 |
Termana | gustavoferreira, opdf2 wasn't talking to you :p | 05:15 |
opdf2 | gustavoferreira: I was talking about ignore a notifcation update | 05:15 |
gustavoferreira | oh, ok, in that case, really sorry opdf2 | 05:15 |

Psi | sshfs? | 09:38 |

Psi | the problem with usb mass storage mode is id need to carry around the cable in my pocket all the time | 09:39 |
Psi | be nice if i could do everything without even needing to take the phone out of my pocket | 09:40 |
Psi | so some sort of webdav type thing would be good | 09:40 |
RobbieThe1st | What I do is have a small case with a second pocket. I keep a short $0.99 USB cable, extra battery and pair of earbuds in there. Easy on-the-go pack. | 09:40 |
Psi | interesting | 09:41 |
RobbieThe1st | the whole case is slightly larger than the n900; about twice as thick. Fits fine in my front pockets. | 09:41 |
Psi | maybe ill install webdav or samba inside debian lxde | 09:42 |
Psi | that would atleast work and not slow doen the phone as i could start/stop LXDE when i need to use it | 09:43 |

nakeee | Hi, I want to use n900's camera for a computer science course. For that I want to control the different aspect of the camera from a linux computer | 11:35 |
alterego | nakeee: can you code? | 11:35 |
nakeee | is it possible? | 11:36 |
nakeee | alterego, yes, but I don't have experience with coding for cell phones | 11:36 |
alterego | nakeee: look into the fcam project | 11:36 |
MohammadAG | it's coding for linux :P | 11:36 |
alterego | Meh, the N900 is coding for Linux :) | 11:36 |
pupnik_ | alterego: does that let you stream the camera to the pc? | 11:36 |
alterego | pupnik_: he could use it to stream. | 11:37 |
pupnik_ | i was just looking at 'qik' but not what i want | 11:37 |
pupnik_ | sweet, the question i was going to asked was just answered | 11:37 |
alterego | Erm, well, you'd need to use gstreamer to stream from fcam really .. | 11:37 |
* NooBmonk3y was about to say the same thing :) | 11:37 | |
NooBmonk3y | gstreamer works fine :) | 11:38 |
MohammadAG | fcam is to control lens crap | 11:38 |
alterego | fcam gives you the raw video frames and full control over lens | 11:38 |
pupnik_ | ah | 11:38 |
alterego | You can feed those frames over a socket or stick them through gstreamer | 11:38 |
pupnik_ | i don't want frames actually, i need to get an mpeg4 stream from a hardware encoder - not bog the cpu down anymore than needed | 11:39 |
nakeee | just to make sure I understand it correctly:) I can ssh the phone and then use fcam to control the camera? | 11:40 |
alterego | MohammadAG: almost finished Columbus now :) made it look super pretty, I'd show off some screen shots but I don't want to spoil the launch :P | 11:40 |
alterego | nakeee: No, fcam is a C++ API | 11:40 |
pupnik_ | nakeee: you would need to write a program that uses the fcam library | 11:40 |
MohammadAG | alterego, PM then :P | 11:41 |
nakeee | yea, I just meant there are no special permission problems of using it from remote | 11:41 |
alterego | nakeee: how much control are we talking about? | 11:41 |
pupnik_ | http://fcam.garage.maemo.org/apiDocs.html | 11:41 |
nakeee | alterego, controlling zoom light contrast things like that | 11:41 |
alterego | MohammadAG: maybe later if I'm feeling generous, but I'm being quite secretive now I'm getting close to release ;) | 11:41 |
alterego | Hrm | 11:41 |
* MohammadAG calls a fellow terrorist | 11:42 | |
MohammadAG | :P | 11:42 |
*** habmala has quit IRC | 11:42 | |
alterego | I think you can do that with the cam element in gstreamer. | 11:42 |
alterego | I think it does zoom, shame you have to do post processing for the other stuff though. | 11:43 |

*** pekuja has joined #maemo | 12:10 | |
pekuja | do most of you guys use Irssi on Maemo? | 12:10 |
pekuja | I've been using X-Chat and I just kinda hate it. | 12:11 |
Termana | pekuja, I think most people use xchat on maemo | 12:11 |
alterego | I use irc, in screen on a server I ssh to | 12:11 |
pekuja | Termana, yeah? I feel like it's kinda annoying to use when you have a lot of channels | 12:12 |
Termana | alterego, because you are just that hardcore aren't you? | 12:12 |
Termana | :p | 12:12 |
pekuja | alterego, the IRC client called "irc"? | 12:12 |
alterego | no irssi | 12:12 |
pekuja | ok :-P | 12:12 |
pekuja | but yeah, I did that too | 12:12 |
pekuja | right now I have ZNC | 12:12 |
pekuja | mostly because I figured X-Chat would be nicer than Irssi on Maemo | 12:12 |
pekuja | but turns out I don't really like that either | 12:12 |
alterego | Heh | 12:13 |
pekuja | I think I'd say Irssi is, or can be made, easier to use than X-Chat on Maemo | 12:13 |
alterego | yeah | 12:13 |
NooBmonk3y | ooo can it? :P | 12:13 |
pekuja | since it relies more on the keyboard, which is kind of a forté for Maemo | 12:13 |
alterego | I've not done any tweaks though | 12:13 |
pekuja | NooBmonk3y, no clue. I'm just rambling | 12:13 |
NooBmonk3y | lol | 12:14 |
alterego | Instead of alt switching you have to use ESC then number | 12:14 |
sjk | irssi is OK on maemo | 12:14 |
pekuja | but basically for example, it's really annoying to browse through a long list of channels in X-Chat | 12:14 |
* dlirit just found mediabox, like a million years too late | 12:14 | |
Termana | I quite liked xchat - and the ability to scroll channels with the volume rocker | 12:14 |
Termana | pekuja, how many channels are you normally in on your n900 | 12:14 |
sjk | i use ssh and screen irssi on a remote server too | 12:14 |
Termana | ? | 12:14 |
pekuja | but since you mostly want to check the windows with new activity, you can do an Esc + A in Irssi | 12:14 |
alterego | sjk: that's because we're awesome :) | 12:14 |
pekuja | Termana, I dunno, 20 maybe | 12:14 |
dlirit | I always stuck with canola due to it's extremely easy interface but recently I've been configuring my upnp streamer and it can't find mediatomb so I resulted to mediabox | 12:15 |
*** Openfree` has quit IRC | 12:15 | |
sjk | alterego, hehe! | 12:15 |
pekuja | Termana, the thing is, I use a bouncer on my server | 12:15 |
pekuja | Termana, so I have the same channels open on Maemo that I have on my desktop | 12:15 |
Termana | pekuja, fair enough I guess. | 12:15 |
*** Openfree` has joined #maemo | 12:16 | |
pekuja | I mean, maybe I could figure out a way to cherrypick the most important channels and have those in Maemo | 12:16 |
Termana | Funny story about bouncers, I was trying to set one up the other week, but for some reason I thought it wasn't working. Anyway, somehow I left the process going and I found my nickname kept being unavailable even when I done a ghost and release with nickserv. Turns out the bouncer kept taking my nickname. | 12:16 |
pekuja | but I don't actually know how I could do that | 12:16 |
Termana | :P | 12:16 |
sjk | By the way, I really miss some kind of keychain for ssh keys on the maemo | 12:17 |
sjk | anyone using one? | 12:17 |

MohammadAG | grr, open up an app store of your own | 12:52 |
MohammadAG | :P | 12:52 |
alterego | Heh | 12:52 |
alterego | That thought has crossed my mind, and it is a possibility. | 12:52 |
MohammadAG | or... | 12:52 |
alterego | The Ovi T&C says you get 60% of price :/ | 12:53 |
MohammadAG | extras non-free, handle payment in-app | 12:53 |
MohammadAG | not only that, but it can easily be pirated from | 12:53 |
MohammadAG | handling payments in app would be the best way imo | 12:53 |
alterego | 40% if it's obtained through some carrier thing, but we don't have that on N900 | 12:53 |
alterego | Yeah, a lot of hassle though | 12:53 |
MohammadAG | nope | 12:53 |
alterego | I'd quite like to know the metrics of pirated software on maemo as well tbh ... | 12:54 |
MohammadAG | just make a database and push IMEIs to it if the payment was received | 12:54 |
alterego | Yeah | 12:54 |
MohammadAG | pirated software on maemo? it's a lot more than you think | 12:54 |
alterego | Yeah .. | 12:54 |
MohammadAG | check symbian's forums | 12:54 |
alterego | Well, these are things I'll think about more when I've finished, right now it's more getting to that stage for me :) | 12:55 |
MohammadAG | you'll find most (if not all) apps on ovi pirated | 12:55 |
alterego | Sure, but I mean how many peopel are actually using pirated versions. | 12:55 |
jacekowski | MohammadAG: there is no commercial software for maemo | 12:55 |
jacekowski | MohammadAG: so there is no piracy | 12:55 |
MohammadAG | count most symbian to maemo transitions | 12:55 |
MohammadAG | jacekowski, err? | 12:55 |

mece_ | well, I guess there is some jacekowski | 12:55 |

alterego | Angry Birds, Zenbound, blah blah balh | 12:56 |
MohammadAG | there isn't any DRM protection on the apps, but they are paid | 12:56 |

alterego | Yreah | 12:56 |
jacekowski | ovi fail is working? | 12:56 |
MohammadAG | don't count those though | 12:56 |
alterego | Well, actually in my case I've got a few Palm OS games that I paid for :P | 12:56 |
alterego | Sims and NFSU | 12:56 |
MohammadAG | preenv pirating is due to pirating palm pre games | 12:56 |
MohammadAG | not maemo related in any way imo | 12:56 |
MohammadAG | jacekowski, the store gives you a direct link to a deb | 12:57 |
alterego | MohammadAG: maybe not, but it is an indication of where peoples ethics are ;) | 12:57 |
mece_ | alterego, well I don't think it's legal to actually extract them from the palm. Haven't read the thing though. | 12:57 |
MohammadAG | the link is reusable many times | 12:57 |
mece_ | alterego, it's not evil piracy, but I don't think it's legal either way | 12:57 |
alterego | mece_: it is in the UK, we have data laws that allow backups and such. | 12:57 |
MohammadAG | and the deb's downloaded to /var/tmp | 12:57 |
alterego | You buy it it's yours. | 12:57 |
mece_ | alterego, nice. | 12:57 |
mece_ | alterego, either way, most people don't have a possibility to buy pre games | 12:58 |

NooBmonk3y | alterego, starting to sound like me ;) | 13:31 |
alterego | Hah, sounds like, but completely different issue ;) | 13:31 |
alterego | Everytime I make a modification to my code it compiles/packages/scps to device/unpackages/starts up | 13:32 |
alterego | It's annoying .. | 13:32 |
D-Iivil | Maybe it's time for full sweep and reflash. In the past I was able to copy large files with no problems... | 13:33 |
D-Iivil | Is there a possibility that eMMC has corrupted somehow and that causes problems when writing or reading stuff? | 13:33 |
RobbieThe1st | Um, FSCK/chkdsk it? | 13:34 |
D-Iivil | RobbieThe1st, I have to run fsck everytime the device reboots itself. I'm running it with -a switch. | 13:34 |
DocScrutinizer | D-Iivil: known effect, related to kernel swap madness | 13:35 |
D-Iivil | DocScrutinizer, and no solution to fix it? | 13:35 |
DocScrutinizer | D-Iivil: probably not hw related | 13:35 |
DocScrutinizer | D-Iivil: allegedly new kernel has some halfassed fixes | 13:35 |
RobbieThe1st | Ouch | 13:35 |
luke-jr | D-Iivil: corruption is also possible, but unlikely on eMMC since BME shuts the system down before it loses battery | 13:36 |
DocScrutinizer | D-Iivil: somebody suggested to use rsync with throttling bandwidth to tackle the problem | 13:36 |
*** noodles900 has quit IRC | 13:36 | |
DocScrutinizer | for cp of large files | 13:36 |
*** jpinx-eeepc has quit IRC | 13:37 | |
D-Iivil | DocScrutinizer, hmmm... sounds too complicated to use rsync just to transfer files from pc to phone :( | 13:37 |
D-Iivil | (windows machine) | 13:37 |
DocScrutinizer | D-Iivil: I cp'd 13GB from PC to eMMC in ass rage mode, worked just fine | 13:38 |
* D-Iivil thinks if it would help if he sets limit for scp transfer | 13:39 | |
DocScrutinizer | trying to cp from uSD to eMMC created same issue you described | 13:39 |
luke-jr | D-Iivil: you use Windows⁇ | 13:39 |
D-Iivil | DocScrutinizer, ass rage mode? Sounds a bit gay :P | 13:39 |
D-Iivil | luke-jr, mainly yes. | 13:39 |
DocScrutinizer | Mass STOrage | 13:39 |
D-Iivil | DocScrutinizer, too bad I lost my usb cable and getting new from ebay will take weeks... | 13:40 |
D-Iivil | Would setting speedlimit for scp transfer help? | 13:40 |
DocScrutinizer | D-Iivil: you may try fiddling with things like swappiness, prio/nice etc. And kill cp when it slows down | 13:41 |
DocScrutinizer | ask ShadowJK | 13:41 |
DocScrutinizer | kill tracker | 13:42 |
DocScrutinizer | !!! | 13:42 |
D-Iivil | killing tracker sounds like a good idea :) | 13:43 |
D-Iivil | just killall tracker-d tracker-indexer | 13:43 |
D-Iivil | ? | 13:43 |
DocScrutinizer | dunno, maybe killall --SIGSTOP | 13:44 |
DocScrutinizer | or stop the init process, whatever | 13:44 |
*** Termana has quit IRC | 13:44 | |
D-Iivil | hmm... would it be enough just disable everything in tracker-cfg? | 13:45 |
DocScrutinizer | make sure there's no other processes accessing the media concurrently, also make sure you're not already using large amounts of ram for other processes so swapping is less likely | 13:46 |
DocScrutinizer | d-lthat's what I did )tracker.cfg) | 13:46 |
D-Iivil | DocScrutinizer, okay, will try that :) | 13:47 |
D-Iivil | Fresh reboot, kill tracker, trying to transfer... | 13:47 |

alterego | I'm a whore for details :/ | 15:11 |

ieatlint | if you use QDesktopService::storageLocation, it'll give you valid paths to store data on maemo and symbian | 15:11 |
alterego | I'll never be 100% happy though so I've decided that view is final ;) | 15:11 |
ieatlint | i'll be curious to see your code sometime :P | 15:12 |
ieatlint | assuming open source, etc, heh | 15:12 |
alterego | ieatlint: yeah, I know there are things for that, I've just not been using them (yet). | 15:12 |
alterego | Well, I'll give out the source for specific things to people that want to play. But the application I want to sell so ... | 15:12 |
ieatlint | fair enough | 15:13 |
alterego | I might do a FOSS edition, basically without data logging and way point support, just the UI. | 15:13 |

ieatlint | and have been moving along through that somewhat slowly | 15:16 |
alterego | Similar story for me really. | 15:16 |
ieatlint | and yeah, i'm always confused with qtdesigner... i can do a basic layout in it, and end up with a 600kb program using large amounts of ram, or i can just throw a few widgets in a qvboxlayout and have it for 20kb | 15:17 |
alterego | Heh | 15:17 |
*** jonne has quit IRC | 15:18 | |

DocScrutinizer | anyway, we got NMEA? | 16:41 |
sougata | pupnik, hi | 16:41 |
pupnik | allo allo | 16:41 |
alterego | Yeah, you can swap in QNmeaPositionInfoSource instead of a QGeoPositionInfoSource to make your application reaed NMEA sentences instead of using position gained from a GPS. | 16:42 |
sougata | I have googled a bit and installed some softwares to my n800 | 16:42 |
*** tilppis has joined #maemo | 16:42 | |
sougata | they are running chinook | 16:42 |
alterego | Which I'm using to read in log files and stuff. | 16:42 |
alterego | To render previous track logs. | 16:42 |
sougata | I want to write some guis for some of them | 16:42 |
DocScrutinizer | alterego: that's quite obvious as Qt is cross-ülatform. But do we *have* any NMEA to read? | 16:43 |
alterego | But I wanted a "playback" function, which would allow me to run through an old log in real time updating the UI as it would have appeared. | 16:43 |
MohammadAG | DocScrutinizer, disassembled the device | 16:43 |
sougata | like ttcp and my own c codes | 16:43 |

*** avs has quit IRC | 16:43 | |

alterego | And logging | 16:44 |
DocScrutinizer | alterego: cool :-) | 16:44 |
sougata | pupnik, do I have to use gtk to write gui's | 16:45 |
DocScrutinizer | proper NMEA *from* N900 is what a lot of people are looking for | 16:45 |
alterego | DocScrutinizer: yeah :) | 16:45 |
alterego | I've implemented the full NMEA sentence set as used by SiRF equipment. | 16:46 |
alterego | So if your software works with a bluetooth or network SiRF device, then it'll work with the N900 & my app | 16:46 |
MohammadAG | speaking of real time | 16:46 |
MohammadAG | alterego, any ideas how to update kernel messages in real time? :) | 16:46 |
*** hannesw has quit IRC | 16:46 | |

alterego | :) | 16:47 |
alterego | Let me think about it for a few minutes. | 16:47 |
MohammadAG | having /proc/driver/musb_hdrc output being updated in real time would be cool | 16:47 |
alterego | Do you currently do a system call to execute dmesg and just dump the output? | 16:48 |
MohammadAG | but I have no idea how that would be done, other than a QTimer | 16:48 |
MohammadAG | alterego, yes | 16:48 |

ik_5 | and flasher seems to work (after I installed all of it's dependencies) | 19:57 |
DocScrutinizer | ik_5: I suggest you first try a fiasco / COMBINED flash only, and see if it helps. If it doesn't, then do a full eMMC/VANILLA 1st plus rootfs/fiasco/COMBINED 2nd flash | 19:59 |

gruinelli | MohammadAG: I now installed scratchbox, and I also can run python programms, but as said, for some reasons, its only python 2.3 instead 2.5 | 20:30 |
Choom | it's never failed on me and integrates nicely with maemo's conversations | 20:30 |
BCMM | they all use one real word, and one i don't recognise | 20:30 |
BCMM | i think they must be made-up words | 20:30 |
gruinelli | and because of that I can not install shedskin successfully | 20:30 |
MohammadAG | gruinelli, compile in scratchbox, install on N900 | 20:30 |
gruinelli | hmm, the problem is, the shedskin package is not an usuall sourc package, you cant run .configure; make | 20:32 |
gruinelli | you only have to run python setup.py install | 20:32 |
MohammadAG | then that's not actually compilation | 20:32 |

gruinelli | its a deb file which included all the needed python files for shedskin | 21:25 |
*** krzysz00 has quit IRC | 21:25 | |
Jaffa | gruinelli: The deb must have been generated by something; at the point there's a dir with a 'debian/' directory run dpkg-buildpackage -s | 21:25 |
gruinelli | MohamedAg told me i have to uploade the source code, so I can use shedskin on the autobuilder | 21:25 |
gruinelli | the deb file contains the usual control.tar.gz and data.tar.gz, but I can not find a debian/ folder | 21:28 |
gruinelli | If I douwnload the source as tar.gz, the manual sais, i have to install it with "python setup.py install" | 21:29 |

*** mavhc has quit IRC | 22:14 | |
MohammadAG | gruinelli, a debian/install file is only needed when make install does not install all files where you want it to, it's called by dh_install | 22:14 |
MohammadAG | gruinelli, and I did, And finally, the parts needed to install the file, e.g $(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/package_name install. If your make file does not handle file installations, you can use an install file in debian/ and keep dh_install in the rules file, as per below. | 22:14 |
gruinelli | ah, ok. And am i right and can just comment aout the line 56 with dh_install? It makes an error, see above | 22:14 |

NooBmonk3y | MohammadAG, alterego YAY! i got swipe working (Ok, not alterego's cool one) but i can swipe to swap stackable windows now :0 | 23:24 |
alterego | Heh | 23:24 |
alterego | NooBmonk3y: oh you're using gestures? | 23:24 |
gruinelli | MohammadAG: what does it help when the install script copies the files into the debian folder? and what does it have to do with bdist_dumb? | 23:25 |
NooBmonk3y | kinda | 23:25 |
NooBmonk3y | gestures dont work on maemo | 23:25 |
alterego | Some of them are supposed to .. | 23:25 |
NooBmonk3y | but i used this - with alot of extra thinking lol - http://kunalmaemo.blogspot.com/2010/10/detecting-swipe-gesture-in-qt.html | 23:25 |
*** hurbu__ has joined #maemo | 23:25 | |
NooBmonk3y | alterego, did try them all | 23:25 |
NooBmonk3y | none worked, but this guys code worked after an hour of tinkering :) | 23:25 |
alterego | Oh, heh | 23:26 |
NooBmonk3y | Time to get rid of my menu and buttons, wohoooooooooO! | 23:26 |
MohammadAG | gruinelli, copying to debian/sourcepackagenamehere/ means it'll get packed into the deb | 23:26 |
MohammadAG | NooBmonk3y, use hide() | 23:26 |
NooBmonk3y | hide? | 23:26 |

alterego | Well, this afternoon wasn't a complete waste ^.^ | 23:27 |
MohammadAG | alterego, how do daemons work? :3 | 23:27 |
MohammadAG | C++ ones | 23:27 |
*** schend has quit IRC | 23:27 | |
gruinelli | But that will not sovle the problem with the missing permission! | 23:28 |
alterego | Same as any other daemon | 23:28 |
alterego | You write a program, and get upstart to run it in the background on startup | 23:28 |
alterego | (If only it was really that simple though ;) | 23:28 |

crashanddie | MohammadAG: it's just a normal C++ binary | 23:29 |
crashanddie | MohammadAG: the only difference is how it is started | 23:29 |
*** ik_5 has quit IRC | 23:29 | |
MohammadAG | yes, I mean how does it not rape the CPU/mem | 23:30 |

*** SpeedEvil has quit IRC | 23:31 | |
alterego | MohammadAG: well, most programs don't, as long as they're idle. | 23:31 |
alterego | Say you write a daemon using Qt. | 23:32 |
*** perlite_ has joined #maemo | 23:32 | |
*** davyg has quit IRC | 23:32 | |
alterego | You initiate the event loop by calling QApplication::exec(). | 23:32 |
alterego | Most of the time, if the application is doing something, like waiting for input from a file, or waiting for a client to connect to some socket, it's doing nothing. | 23:32 |
*** piggz__ has joined #maemo | 23:33 | |
*** piggz_ has quit IRC | 23:33 | |
alterego | And the Qt event loop (I believe) is like a reactor, it blocks waitinf for events to occur to trigger your application logic, so it's basically waiting for the kernel to signal it that something interesting has happened. | 23:33 |
alterego | Now, say you write a daemon, and you're implementing your own main loop or event loop, you just have to make sure you call sleep with a good enough period to not kill the CPU with your dumb code ;) | 23:34 |
*** perlite has quit IRC | 23:34 | |
MohammadAG | and how does it know which part it should repeat? | 23:34 |
*** perlite_ is now known as perlite | 23:34 | |
alterego | Which part what should repeat? | 23:35 |
*** iDont has quit IRC | 23:35 | |
alterego | Daemons are usually monitoring/waiting to react to events | 23:35 |
gruinelli | MohammadAG: I am actually not sure why it makes sense to make a package of shedskin, as it never will be usefull on the phone without gcc. All I need is that the autobuilder has those files in the /scratchbox/tools/lib/python2.3/site-packages/ folder, so gcc can compile the module. | 23:35 |
alterego | gruinelli: you need to create a -dev package really :P | 23:36 |
Arkenoi | btw if n9 has capacitive touchscreen, using easydebian LXDE might be painful not to say almost impossible | 23:36 |
gruinelli | hmm, but that does not solve my problem | 23:36 |
MohammadAG | it does | 23:37 |
*** trbs has quit IRC | 23:37 | |
gruinelli | how? | 23:37 |
MohammadAG | you use shedskin on the builder, not the device | 23:37 |
gruinelli | lol, thats what I try to do wince 4h :( | 23:37 |
MohammadAG | would've packaged it in 5 mins, but I'm in bed | 23:38 |
gruinelli | If I understand you right, I have to create a package for shedskin, so it can be installed on the server | 23:38 |
crashanddie | MohammadAG: a daemon's only purpose is to be quick and reactive, you basically put it to sleep for x seconds | 23:38 |
MohammadAG | yes | 23:38 |
gruinelli | but it will not run there, as the server uses python2.3, which is too old | 23:38 |
crashanddie | MohammadAG: or if you're working with signals, you can put it to sleep indefinitely, and then just wake it up with a signal if something happens | 23:38 |
*** piggz__ has quit IRC | 23:38 | |
*** piggz has joined #maemo | 23:38 | |
MohammadAG | how do you know? | 23:38 |
MohammadAG | the autobuilder doesn't use scratchbox | 23:39 |
MohammadAG | crashanddie, hmm, I see | 23:39 |
MohammadAG | but suppose I execute the app | 23:39 |

crashanddie | that's coding? | 23:41 |
gruinelli | MohammadAG: I gte this error: "NameError: name 'set' is not defined" in scratchbox. And here is an explanation: http://lists.logilab.org/pipermail/python-projects/2007-January/001122.html | 23:41 |
gruinelli | > The "set" class was introduced in Python 2.4. | 23:41 |
*** hardaker has quit IRC | 23:41 | |
MohammadAG | how do you know the builder uses 2.3? | 23:42 |
crashanddie | while (true) { if (signalQueue.received()) handleSignalQueue(); else sleep(2000); } | 23:42 |
crashanddie | done | 23:42 |
gruinelli | See 4. last line here: https://garage.maemo.org/builder/fremantle/shedskin_0.6/i386.build.log.FAILED.txt | 23:42 |
MohammadAG | you're doing it wrong | 23:43 |
gruinelli | so my issues are: 1) it sues a too old python version, 2) there are missing access rights for 2 folders, one of them is /scratchbox/tools/lib/python2.3/site-packages | 23:43 |
MohammadAG | see noor's source | 23:43 |
MohammadAG | it was originally a setup.py | 23:43 |
MohammadAG | basically | 23:44 |
MohammadAG | make a source folder, under it make debian/ and src/ | 23:44 |
MohammadAG | run bdist_dumb somewhere outside it, then extract the tar into src/ | 23:44 |
*** benh has quit IRC | 23:44 | |
*** dvaske has quit IRC | 23:44 | |
MohammadAG | then in debian/rules do cp -r src/* debian/shedskin/* | 23:44 |
MohammadAG | that's it | 23:45 |
gruinelli | you mean *python steup.py bdist_dumb"? | 23:45 |
MohammadAG | yes | 23:45 |
MohammadAG | run it outside the source package | 23:45 |
MohammadAG | source dir, whatever | 23:45 |
* alterego now feels the wave of nirvana he gets when he's finished some crazy programming milestone | 23:45 | |
alterego | "bluetooth-server :: ServiceAcceptor: onConnect() - Remote endpoint connected: 00:1F:3A:D6:E4:2B" | 23:45 |
alterego | Done | 23:45 |
gruinelli | but there will not be a setup.py | 23:45 |
MohammadAG | so? | 23:45 |
MohammadAG | we don't need it | 23:46 |
MohammadAG | off to bed, school day tomorrow | 23:46 |
MohammadAG | i'm sure others can help, if not, i'll package it tomorrow | 23:46 |
gruinelli | but i get : python: can't open file 'setup.py' | 23:47 |
gruinelli | well, i will see what I can figure out. Thank you very much for your help! | 23:47 |
MohammadAG | then remove it from debian/rules :) | 23:47 |
