crashanddie_ | what does MAFW provide, really? | 00:01 |
---|---|---|
crashanddie_ | Looking at the garage project didn't provide a whole lot of details | 00:01 |
crashanddie_ | other than "Code moved to Gnome" | 00:01 |
*** dneary has joined #maemo | 00:01 | |
MohammadAG | better integration with maemo, for a start | 00:02 |
crashanddie_ | and? | 00:03 |
MohammadAG | we don't break half the apps using mafw | 00:04 |
crashanddie_ | not using MAFW would break apps? | 00:04 |
MohammadAG | would make them disfunctional | 00:05 |
MohammadAG | nicolai's home applet, alterego's IM updater etc | 00:05 |
lcuk | no crashanddie_ | 00:06 |
lcuk | crashanddie_, what are you using them for | 00:08 |
crashanddie_ | hmm | 00:08 |
crashanddie_ | fair enough MohammadAG, didn't know MAFW provided that kind of interface too | 00:09 |
MohammadAG | lcuk, you missed the project? | 00:09 |
crashanddie_ | no he didn't, he's avoiding it. | 00:09 |
* lcuk not avoiding | 00:09 | |
lcuk | just letting it take shape as required :P | 00:09 |

DocScrutinizer51 | last day I watched dbus while selecting some media in player. WOW what a funny SQL statement (though tracker's name for it is different) | 00:13 |
DocScrutinizer51 | so much for 'talking directly to tracker' - seems even mediaplayer does it | 00:13 |

DocScrutinizer | honestly, worrying about tracker should be at very bottom of your todo list, when cloning mediaplayer. First have a decent file selector for accessing media via path, then have proper management of playlists, as in insert/delete/swap/stop-after/fade-over. Then use tracker to augment info/detail for media *files* with ID3 and other things, and finally you can have a sort order based on tracker solely - as an alternative to path&fs based sort. | 00:26 |
*** ke^ has quit IRC | 00:27 | |
crashanddie_ | yeah, but no | 00:27 |
*** straind has quit IRC | 00:28 | |
crashanddie_ | I get your point, and it would indeed be interesting to have a nice PoC running | 00:28 |
jacekowski | just port amarok 1.4 to n900 | 00:28 |
DocScrutinizer | as a rule of thumb, if mediaplayer doesn't work or becomes unusable on a system where tracker got deinstalled, you severely messed it up | 00:28 |
jacekowski | well, you need list of all files | 00:28 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: ++ | 00:29 |
jacekowski | and traversing file system every time you want to add something to playlist isn't going to work | 00:29 |
jacekowski | adding directly from fs is not the best way | 00:29 |
*** blackthorne has joined #maemo | 00:29 | |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: duh, why? | 00:29 |
DocScrutinizer | BS it's the only way | 00:30 |
jacekowski | no id3 | 00:30 |
crashanddie_ | wut? | 00:30 |
DocScrutinizer | so what? none of my media has ID3 | 00:30 |
*** wizL has joined #maemo | 00:30 | |
jacekowski | all my media has id3 | 00:30 |
*** jukey has left #maemo | 00:30 | |
DocScrutinizer | I'm not interested in that | 00:30 |
*** FIQ has quit IRC | 00:30 | |
jacekowski | and i can only find it by id3 | 00:30 |
jacekowski | or by querying a db | 00:30 |
DocScrutinizer | ok, so what? | 00:30 |
crashanddie_ | except, jacekowski and DocScrutinizer, we're not writing shit just for your use cases | 00:31 |
*** straind has joined #maemo | 00:31 | |
DocScrutinizer | that's the rationale why nobody may get a proper fileselector to get access to their id3-free media???? | 00:31 |
*** frade has quit IRC | 00:31 | |
crashanddie_ | so stop being donkeys and keep the critics to a minimum, unless you really see us going awry | 00:31 |
jacekowski | nah, file selector should be an option | 00:31 |
jacekowski | but tracker based stuff should be a base | 00:32 |
jacekowski | with better tracker | 00:32 |
DocScrutinizer | BS | 00:32 |
*** benh has quit IRC | 00:32 | |
crashanddie_ | guys, the way I see it, it'll be pluggable | 00:32 |
DocScrutinizer | as a rule of thumb, if mediaplayer doesn't work or becomes unusable on a system where tracker got deinstalled, you severely messed it up | 00:32 |
lcuk | DocScrutinizer, come on, you are but one person, blended approach, lots of people like their catalogued media | 00:32 |
crashanddie_ | if a tracker with a db is available, we'll use it, and you'll be able to manually manage your shit | 00:32 |
*** benh has joined #maemo | 00:32 | |
crashanddie_ | if no tracker is available, you'll manage your shit manually | 00:33 |
lcuk | i don't and tend to like folders personally, but that shouldnt prevent it working from a proper catalogue | 00:33 |
crashanddie_ | (by telling it which directories to watch, etc) | 00:33 |
crashanddie_ | I use both tbh | 00:33 |
crashanddie_ | directories and ID3 | 00:33 |
crashanddie_ | cuz I like the information, but I also listen to stuff on the command line | 00:33 |
DocScrutinizer | crashanddie_: me too | 00:33 |
*** SpeedEvil1 has joined #maemo | 00:33 | |
*** SpeedEvil has quit IRC | 00:34 | |
lcuk | well technically if the db retained path (I think it does) | 00:34 |
lcuk | then it just becomes another bit of info in the database | 00:34 |
jacekowski | crashanddie_: well but telling it what directories to watch == making your own implementation of tracker | 00:34 |
*** geaaru has quit IRC | 00:34 | |
crashanddie_ | no | 00:34 |
crashanddie_ | cuz giving it a directory is an instant playlist | 00:34 |
DocScrutinizer | but that's not the point about proper system architecture has nothing to deal with making tracker a mandatory base technology for your app, without any justification | 00:35 |
lcuk | scanning a folder full of music on desktop in realtime is reasonable thing to do on desktop | 00:35 |
crashanddie_ | DocScrutinizer: we're not making tracker mandatory | 00:35 |
crashanddie_ | DocScrutinizer: I don't know where you read that | 00:35 |
lcuk | scanning same folder on n900 brings it to its knees | 00:35 |
DocScrutinizer | [2010-12-08 23:32:00] <jacekowski> but tracker based stuff should be a base | 00:35 |
DocScrutinizer | [2010-12-08 23:31:48] <jacekowski> nah, file selector should be an option | 00:35 |
timeless_webchat | lcuk: i've been told that the scanner was incredibly broken in the n900 stack | 00:35 |
*** scoobertron has joined #maemo | 00:35 | |
timeless_webchat | so in theory a non broken scanner would be much better | 00:35 |
DocScrutinizer | it needs to be the other way round | 00:36 |
jacekowski | lcuk: well, inotify would be so nice if it would work on umounted filesystems | 00:36 |
crashanddie_ | DocScrutinizer: yeah, and last I checked, jacekowski is about on the same level to this project as you are: badmouthing it. | 00:36 |
lcuk | timeless_webchat, similar issue with image thumbnailing | 00:36 |
jacekowski | crashanddie_: what about mediabox? | 00:36 |
lcuk | and thats got one of the most optimised jpeg libraries on the planet | 00:36 |
crashanddie_ | lcuk: doing an ls on a 50-file directory brings the N900 on its knees? | 00:37 |
lcuk | no, but you just said you like id3 | 00:37 |
timeless_webchat | lcuk: you won't find me claiming the n900 impl of anything is good... | 00:37 |
crashanddie_ | well, yeah, ever heard of threading? | 00:37 |
lcuk | grabbing that from the media as you show the album | 00:37 |
timeless_webchat | picasa otoh does give me media i can use | 00:37 |
timeless_webchat | and it does indexing | 00:37 |
crashanddie_ | lcuk: remember winamp 2? | 00:37 |
* timeless_webchat remembers winamp 1 | 00:37 | |
crashanddie_ | lcuk: you gave it a big ass folder, it just displayed the filename.mp3 initially, you could select, start playing, etc... And then, in the background, slowly, it would load the id3 information | 00:38 |
*** SpeedEvil1 has quit IRC | 00:38 | |
lcuk | of course crashanddie_ | 00:38 |
crashanddie_ | that's all I'm talking about | 00:38 |
lcuk | i understand the principle | 00:38 |
lcuk | but even with winamp | 00:38 |
lcuk | i used to have to close everything to even play mp3 | 00:38 |
lcuk | let alone catalogue it | 00:39 |
lcuk | (early computer times | 00:39 |
lcuk | pre ghx | 00:39 |
crashanddie_ | lcuk: I remember loading a 300+ list of songs on a amd k6-2 300Mhz | 00:39 |
lcuk | ghz | 00:39 |
crashanddie_ | I'll be fucked if the N900 is slower than that | 00:39 |
lcuk | agreed in principle | 00:40 |
lcuk | canola managed very well without a catalogue afaik | 00:40 |

lcuk | speaking of which.. | 00:40 |

alterego | If it ticks all the boxes you like in a mobile OS | 02:11 |
alterego | Sure, as lots I'm sure dislike glib,gobject,gtk | 02:12 |
javispedro | since it is philosophizing time, I'm gonna throw in my fears | 02:12 |
alterego | Unless you're developing ... What do you care? :) | 02:13 |
DocScrutinizer | for now maemo is more open and better documented than meego, and I don't see that change any time soon. Not to talk about quality of system design | 02:13 |
DocScrutinizer | or maturity | 02:13 |
alterego | Maemo is not more open than meego | 02:13 |
DocScrutinizer | hah | 02:14 |
javispedro | when I ponder what attaches me to Maemo, I usually think people, hackability, and the fact that Maemo is the most desktop-like linux distro while still keeping reasonable usability. | 02:14 |
DocScrutinizer | javispedro: ack | 02:14 |
*** Kegetys has quit IRC | 02:14 | |
javispedro | WebOS also has (for me) people, hackability, but.. | 02:14 |
javispedro | it is hardly the most desktop-like linux distro. | 02:14 |
javispedro | custom window server, etc. | 02:15 |
DocScrutinizer | where hackability is what I call "open in a sense of well understood and documented" | 02:15 |
alterego | The same people are developing MeeGo, they are using what they know to have worked with maemo there aswell, with hindsight .. | 02:15 |
DocScrutinizer | hahaha | 02:15 |
DocScrutinizer | like fuvar braindamaged lis302 mainstream driver, compared to rather nice maemo counterpart | 02:15 |
*** trbs has quit IRC | 02:16 | |
javispedro | and my biggest fear is that right now Meego's "main toolkit" is a toolkit owned by Nokia itself. | 02:16 |
DocScrutinizer | asking what'S the rationale to use a basically broken driver for accelerometer, A was: well it's upstream | 02:16 |
javispedro | which might cause (in fact ALREADY causes) Meego to move away from being the most desktop-like. | 02:17 |
alterego | javispedro: how so? | 02:17 |
alterego | It's more desktop like than maemo | 02:17 |
alterego | if not in the ux in the core os .. | 02:18 |
javispedro | the sad part is that I believe this is unavoidable, because nobody wants to move desktop linux these days | 02:18 |
javispedro | alterego: did you miss the "Meego is a distro on itself" part? | 02:18 |
*** lolloo has quit IRC | 02:19 | |

ieatlint | i think one of my biggest issues with meego right now is that the sdk is only supported on apt-get, and yum/zypper distributions | 02:19 |
ieatlint | whose brilliant idea was it to do that? | 02:19 |
alterego | ieatlint: what else would you install it on? :P | 02:20 |
*** Wamanuz has quit IRC | 02:20 | |
ieatlint | sitting here on gentoo | 02:20 |

javispedro | basically, competition platforms don't seem so away now (they're also "custom linux distributions" running a toolkit owned by their parent companies) | 02:20 |
DocScrutinizer | ergo: contributing to meego is futile effort for me. A bottomless timesink | 02:21 |
alterego | Not intel .. | 02:21 |
javispedro | that's why I also sigh everytime I see yet another thing that potentially causes a X11 application not to run as is on any Meego UX :) | 02:21 |
alterego | Heh | 02:22 |
javispedro | let's bring in the rotation example, as I have that one in mind | 02:22 |
alterego | So you're just going to sit here and do what exactly? | 02:23 |
javispedro | handset uses its own rotation stuff instead of X11 one. | 02:23 |
alterego | And for how long? | 02:23 |
javispedro | pros: nice rotation effect. | 02:23 |
javispedro | cons: doesn't work with non Qt applications. | 02:23 |
alterego | that's a good point. | 02:23 |
javispedro | how can I convince anyone on Meego I find this stupid? even I'm not sure I would want to throw nice rotation effect just to run SDL applications. | 02:24 |
alterego | Heh | 02:24 |
javispedro | and unfortunately there is no sane way to do cool X11 rotation without SEVERE coding work on X11 itself. | 02:24 |
javispedro | something that's out of my reach for plain time reasons. | 02:24 |
alterego | Yeah | 02:24 |
javispedro | so I don't rant loudly, because I understand that Meego shipping with no iPhone-like rotation effect would doom Meego to certain failure... | 02:25 |
javispedro | but yet I'm not easy about it. | 02:25 |
javispedro | (now replace "rotation effect" with all the other problems, and you get the full picture) | 02:26 |
alterego | sensorfw seems pretty well documented to me, for a pre-release library ... | 02:26 |
javispedro | yet another thing that's different from desktop linux. | 02:26 |

DocScrutinizer | javispedro: full ack. The main goal in my book is "make any arbitrary app run on N900 with as little platform specific tweaking the code as possible". Meego TSG seems doesn't have this point *anywhere* on their aims list | 02:29 |
*** trx has quit IRC | 02:29 | |
alterego | Why should that be a goal? | 02:29 |
alterego | Okay, they've sort of missed it completely with mtf, but still. | 02:30 |
DocScrutinizer | alterego: if you don't see why, then probably it's a waste of time to discuss it with you | 02:30 |
alterego | We've never expected that from maemo .. | 02:30 |
alterego | Why do you expect it from meego? | 02:30 |
DocScrutinizer | I expect that from every linux | 02:30 |
DocScrutinizer | and meego seems to become a ""linux"" much like android is linux | 02:31 |
alterego | Well, you can, just don't expect it to be pretty ... | 02:31 |
alterego | Rubbish | 02:31 |
alterego | You can run what you want on meego, just don't expect it to iteract with the ux properly | 02:32 |
*** BCMM_ has joined #maemo | 02:32 | |
DocScrutinizer | aah, you say they haven't messed up the CPU instruction set yet? | 02:32 |
alterego | We're moving to neon fp soonish | 02:33 |
toresbe | DocScrutinizer: so you want even more badly-adapted apps for meego than there are for maemo? | 02:33 |
*** wizL has quit IRC | 02:33 | |
alterego | armv7hl | 02:33 |
BCMM | DocScrutinizer: meego is going to be weird and nonstandard? | 02:33 |
alterego | Which will be a nice perf boost, something maemo will never have. | 02:33 |
toresbe | the reason it's different-looking is because it's a different user interface model... would you dismiss a Linux made for a process-control environment because it couldn't run OpenOffice? | 02:33 |
alterego | I never thought desktop like meant what you think it does :P | 02:34 |
DocScrutinizer | toresbe: you are free to adapt yur apps to any degree you like. I want to be free to take e.g. OOo and simply compile it and get a miniature desktop experience out of it, however unusable and bad it might be | 02:34 |
toresbe | I'd happily accept a rot13'd API if it only meant that I could get good, well-adapted, well-integrated applications | 02:34 |
toresbe | _why_? | 02:34 |
javispedro | toresbe: and you're here and not on #iphone why? you quoted steve jobs. | 02:34 |
*** Bash has quit IRC | 02:35 | |
alterego | heh | 02:35 |
toresbe | javispedro: I care about free, I don't care about "compatible with every single other free system" | 02:35 |
javispedro | "I'd happily accept a flawed/reduced API if it only meant I could get good, well-integrated applications" | 02:35 |
javispedro | Steve Jobs said THAT: | 02:35 |
DocScrutinizer | toresbe: that's plain BS | 02:35 |
toresbe | I don't want generic X applications running on my N900. I want a good N900 calendar. | 02:36 |
javispedro | bah, can't find the quote quickly enough | 02:36 |
toresbe | iPhone's API constraints is an important reason for why it's a better phone than the N900 in terms of the PIMey stuff. I'd be happy with a more specialized API, I just don't want a more _restricted phone_. | 02:36 |
*** BCMM has quit IRC | 02:36 | |
DocScrutinizer | toresbe: so go ahead and code it yourself | 02:36 |
DocScrutinizer | from scratch | 02:36 |
DocScrutinizer | as that's what you need to do when there's no compatibility to whatever has been there before | 02:37 |
toresbe | DocScrutinizer: That's a weaselly argument and applies equally well to your own line of reasoning. It's on par with "if you like it so much why don't you go live there" | 02:37 |
javispedro | DocScrutinizer: there's no need to code it, he will just use Meego ;) | 02:37 |
*** lolloo has joined #maemo | 02:37 | |
DocScrutinizer | yeah, Nokia's meego flavour of calendar blob | 02:38 |
javispedro | well, no calendar yet on Meego, but the reference handset one should be open | 02:38 |
DocScrutinizer | as we all know maemo one was so great | 02:38 |
toresbe | I don't want a blob, but I do want a calendar written for my telephone and not for my desktop and then shoehorned into my phone. | 02:38 |
javispedro | wheter Nokia will use it or just distribute a blob "better" one... | 02:38 |
DocScrutinizer | toresbe: you're no developer, are you? | 02:39 |
toresbe | DocScrutinizer: Yes, I am. | 02:39 |
alterego | it is open, and uses kdes calndar backend | 02:39 |
DocScrutinizer | oh, sorry for you then | 02:39 |
toresbe | DocScrutinizer: Dude. Just because we disagree on something doesn't mean you have to be a dick about it. | 02:39 |
chem|st | we should force something looking like orage | 02:39 |
alterego | DocScrutinizer: you can run desktop apps just like you can on maemo .. | 02:40 |
alterego | craply integrated without work. | 02:40 |
toresbe | I don't want an iPhone-ey "this solution is what you will use and we know better". Nor do I want 10 different buggy one-person projects with truly horrifying UIs (the Spotifies for N900 spring to mind) | 02:40 |
alterego | I was thinking today though, after someone mentioning skype.. | 02:40 |
javispedro | toresbe: but having none is unavoidable | 02:40 |
javispedro | toresbe: you have to choose | 02:40 |
alterego | That along with flash we probably wont have skype either. | 02:40 |
javispedro | toresbe: between "we know better, use this" and having a fragmented ecosystem. | 02:41 |
*** florian has quit IRC | 02:41 | |
toresbe | I want a fragmented ecosystem with good, standardized interfaces. :) | 02:41 |
javispedro | fragmented implies buggy one-person projects | 02:41 |
*** Gorroth has joined #maemo | 02:42 | |
toresbe | Sure, but it doesn't imply that they will all be that way. | 02:42 |
javispedro | someone will eventually want to use, I don't know, Brainfuck to code an application. | 02:42 |
chem|st | n900 was the first 'ships with skype' mobilephone-computer-something so I guess skype will give a heads up for meego aswell | 02:42 |
chem|st | javispedro: caldav! | 02:42 |
*** Kegetys has joined #maemo | 02:42 | |
toresbe | I completely agree with Steve Jobs on the argument of not installing Flash. 110%. | 02:43 |
alterego | chem|st: maybe | 02:43 |
alterego | pfft | 02:43 |
alterego | Why shouldn't we have it ... | 02:43 |
javispedro | chem|st: caldav is coded using brainfuck? =) | 02:43 |
toresbe | Well, for one thing, Flash can't do shit on my N900. | 02:43 |
chem|st | alterego: if meego gets growing like they think it will skype will have their hand in game | 02:43 |
toresbe | I've never seen a Flash app work satisfactorily on my device... | 02:43 |
chem|st | toresbe: flash can't do shit anywhere | 02:44 |
alterego | chem|st: but probably not in obs :P | 02:44 |
*** timeless_mbp has quit IRC | 02:44 | |

MikaT | lolloo, johnx: I believe the picture is about a package called "maemo5-load-applet", and the camera icon on the right if for taking a screenshot. | 08:15 |
johnx | ah, maybe so then. thanks | 08:15 |
lolloo | I still need to scroll down to get to flashlight | 08:18 |
lolloo | but in the screenshot it seems constant | 08:18 |
lolloo | how can I make all apear without scrolling the status menu? | 08:18 |
lolloo | I have 5 lines including the battery, but the sixth line is hidden | 08:19 |
lolloo | needs scrolling down more. | 08:20 |

johnx | I ASSumed, and it seems I was wrong :) | 08:40 |
lolloo | awesome | 08:40 |
lolloo | I thought it would be something related to streaming camera over to pc | 08:41 |
DocScrutinizer | and yes, it's a icing on top of load applet | 08:41 |
Gh0sty | where the sip module implements api v8.0 but the pyqt4gui module requires api v7.1 | 08:42 |
Gh0sty | ???? | 08:42 |
DocScrutinizer | not that screen video works exceptionally well for me. I get jumps and dropouts that make it basically worthless | 08:42 |
DocScrutinizer | kinda fast forward video | 08:43 |
Gh0sty | i need to upgrade PyQT or something? | 08:43 |
*** kimitake has quit IRC | 08:43 | |
Gh0sty | already been thinking to scratch my whole n900 | 08:45 |
Gh0sty | and start over from a new install :/ | 08:45 |
Gh0sty | but reinstalling all applications ... | 08:45 |
Gh0sty | restoring a backup probably drags in dirty stuff? :/ | 08:45 |
DocScrutinizer | ...is a snap with backup app | 08:45 |
Gh0sty | so i better export a package list? | 08:45 |
Gh0sty | nono i mean scratch as in complete reflash the whole thing | 08:46 |
APTX | it drags in your contacts | 08:46 |
DocScrutinizer | backup app is just doing that: keeping a list of apps to re-install | 08:46 |
Gh0sty | I think it got corrupted and gui settings? :p | 08:46 |
Gh0sty | damn sorry | 08:47 |
Gh0sty | and the gui layout ? | 08:47 |
Gh0sty | is that kept? | 08:47 |
APTX | yes | 08:47 |
johnx | you can tell backup to keep or not keep various different things | 08:47 |
DocScrutinizer | how about simply starting it and see for yourself? | 08:47 |
johnx | when I backup-reflash-restore, I choose to only restore contacts, events and conversations usually | 08:47 |
Gh0sty | DocScrutinizer: well I did not consider yet to reflash | 08:48 |
Gh0sty | but lately it got screwed up so much ... :/ | 08:48 |
DocScrutinizer | Gh0sty: so what? it's not forbidden to use backup/restore any time you like | 08:48 |
Gh0sty | ok :P | 08:49 |
DocScrutinizer | and honestly, if a restore of a backup taken 5 minutes before would alter your system, then you really had a reason to bitch at Nokia | 08:49 |
Gh0sty | you gave me confidence ... this weekend I'll reflash :) | 08:49 |
Gh0sty | I'm always a bit afraid to start over ... on desktops the same ... :) | 08:49 |
Gh0sty | but especially on my phone :p | 08:50 |
DocScrutinizer | Gh0sty: Did I suggest to reflash?? o.O I said you should start backup app and make yourself comfortable with it | 08:50 |
Gh0sty | I guess for you guys thats in a blink of an eye :p | 08:50 |
Gh0sty | nono I have backups thats not the problem ... it's just I never tried a restore before either ... | 08:51 |
*** lolloo has quit IRC | 08:51 | |
Gh0sty | usually upgrading just resolves most issues | 08:51 |
*** andrei1089 has quit IRC | 08:51 | |
DocScrutinizer | so why don't you just do that? | 08:51 |
Gh0sty | I will but for now I still want to be able to work ;p | 08:51 |
DocScrutinizer | restoring to the system state of now-5min must not do any harm, no? | 08:51 |
Gh0sty | no :) | 08:52 |
DocScrutinizer | then you know what you're going to face when you do a restore after flashing | 08:53 |
DocScrutinizer | which should make you feel much less scared | 08:53 |
Gh0sty | ah so swappolube is missing the pyqt dependency ... :p | 08:53 |
Gh0sty | thats the solution | 08:53 |

* DocScrutinizer is wondering who's maintaining backup app. Should learn to strongly recommend to user to do a backup prior to a restore run | 09:00 | |
DocScrutinizer | backupA... <time goes by>... backupB-then-restoreA, <check if state A is what you expected>->(NO):backupC-then-restoreB | 09:02 |
DocScrutinizer | lolloo: MohammadAG managed to do that, it's actually not that complicated. But... do you really want to do that? | 09:03 |
lolloo | yes I do please | 09:03 |
lolloo | I need more space for other applets | 09:04 |

lolloo | I agree, but we are half way there. | 09:08 |
DocScrutinizer | another flaw? or qualifies this as a veritable bug as well? | 09:08 |
lolloo | no I call it little tweak | 09:09 |

DocScrutinizer | no sound -> no volume slider :-P | 09:10 |
*** andrei1089 has joined #maemo | 09:11 | |
DocScrutinizer | I seem to remember a file where sort order of those buttons in system menu is defined. Maybe it can do other things as well | 09:12 |

*** avs has joined #maemo | 10:29 | |

DocScrutinizer | but you can power peripherals and save N900 battery | 10:29 |
trx | and if i use active hub | 10:29 |
*** andrei1089 has quit IRC | 10:29 | |
trx | will n900 conserve the energy | 10:30 |
trx | or send it anyways? | 10:30 |
DocScrutinizer | actually if you don't hit the [VBUS] button in h-e-n GUI and instead apply external power at that moment, it should also wok | 10:30 |
DocScrutinizer | work | 10:30 |
DocScrutinizer | charging still is disabled | 10:31 |

DocScrutinizer | this will change this year | 10:32 |

trx | (dont want to rip the port out :) ) | 10:38 |

RST38h | Hey Arkenoi | 10:40 |
Arkenoi | this thingie is tiny, though, so i may carry it with me just always | 10:40 |
DocScrutinizer | trx: you also can try if bme behaves when on hostmode with external VBUS. Just do a `start bme` and see if hostmode stays while charging kicks in. You might see strange effects though | 10:40 |
Arkenoi | anything bigger like cable will prbably stay at home most of the time | 10:41 |

MohammadAG | so | 12:57 |
jase21 | Can pymaemo control the changing the profile (silent <-> general) in N900? | 12:59 |
alterego | You can do it through dbus so yeah | 12:59 |
jase21 | I saw some script (dbus script) in the fcron wiki. But I would like it to be done using python without using fcron. | 12:59 |
jase21 | Is that possible? | 13:00 |
*** Flanbix has quit IRC | 13:00 | |
lardman | yes, just implement dbus command in your Python script | 13:00 |
jase21 | But how about tracking time? | 13:01 |
jase21 | I want to change the profile at 9 to silent and at 6 back to general without using fcron. | 13:01 |
jase21 | So does that need fcron? | 13:01 |
jase21 | (I'm a python newbie) | 13:01 |
lardman | not necessarily, but if you don't use cron then you'll have to have your python script running all the time waiting for the time to change | 13:02 |
jase21 | oh. | 13:02 |
jase21 | The problem is suppose I want to distribute the script. The the target device should also have fcron preinstalled for my script to work, right? | 13:03 |
lardman | yes | 13:03 |
lardman | you create a package for your script and one of the dependencies will be fcrond | 13:03 |
lardman | s/fcrond/fcron | 13:04 |
jase21 | umm.. so where will the package manager get the fcron from? Its not in extras as well as extras-devel | 13:04 |
jase21 | Its in some ruskies repo. | 13:04 |
*** Termana has quit IRC | 13:04 | |
lardman | oh I see | 13:04 |
lardman | Ask him to push it to extras-* | 13:05 |
jase21 | Heh. | 13:05 |
ruskie | won't happen ;) | 13:05 |
lardman | Otherwise it will still work - the use will have to just manually install that package for your package to install | 13:05 |
jase21 | ruskie: Why? | 13:05 |
lardman | diy? | 13:05 |
jase21 | lardman: I wanted to make it simple enough. | 13:05 |
jase21 | Click - install - work | 13:06 |
ruskie | because I dislike those repos and policies around them | 13:06 |
lardman | hmm | 13:06 |
lardman | I can't help there then, but it would make life easier for jase21 | 13:06 |
ruskie | can always query the user to add my repo... install fcron and then remove it | 13:06 |
jase21 | lardernan: Is there buit in mechanism in maemo 5 similar to fcron? | 13:06 |
jase21 | ruskie: okay. I'll resort to fcron as the last resort. | 13:07 |
lardman | no idea, ask ruskie | 13:07 |
ruskie | there's some alarm api thing | 13:07 |
ruskie | that could allow for this | 13:07 |

* jase21 is checking that link. | 13:09 | |
ruskie | I don't patch things | 13:09 |
lardman | in which case, assuming you're happy with it, I'd just get jase21 to build from your package to upload to extras-devel | 13:09 |

jase21 | lardman: You want me to upload fcron to extras-devel? Why can't ruskie do it? | 13:11 |

Choom | yes | 13:17 |
ruskie | it knows the time it's being setup/started | 13:17 |
ruskie | then it just says I need to start in nnnnnnn seconds | 13:17 |
DocScrutinizer | afaik fcron isn't using alarmd. Alarmed though is using alarmd. | 13:17 |
DocScrutinizer | use alarmed | 13:17 |
Choom | and if you're wondering how the kernel itself knows, it can program the microcontroller's PIT which is basically a hardware-based alarm clock that's usually used to cause task switching to schedule an event for later | 13:18 |
jase21 | DocScrutinizer: No I wanted to make my own alarmed (like) utility. | 13:18 |
DocScrutinizer | alarmd will handle RTC wakeups as well | 13:18 |

jase21 | What I want is automate the changing of profile to silent when I'm at work and back to normal when I'm out of work. Also its a simple one to get started to digg some maemo related code, instead of using a pre-made one | 13:22 |

jase21 | oh nice one. For that I need to have exact gps positions mapped. But in this part of the world gps isn't that accurate like in US. | 13:25 |
DocScrutinizer | weird folks | 13:25 |
jase21 | hah :D | 13:25 |

*** BCMM has joined #maemo | 13:25 | |
jase21 | umm.. didn't get it. | 13:26 |
chem|st | was about 30km off lately and do not know why... | 13:26 |
lardman | you could record your home and work locations, and use them directly rather than needing a map lookup, etc | 13:26 |
jase21 | lardman: oh' okay. | 13:26 |
lardman | chem|st: was that because you didn't have a gps fix? | 13:26 |
lardman | and were using base station triangulation? | 13:27 |
DocScrutinizer | nobody is using BTS triangulation | 13:27 |
chem|st | lardman: I have gps and network location on and my position was just fine, but the route to Lon|Lat would have send me somewhere in the woods 30km of track | 13:27 |
DocScrutinizer | except me | 13:27 |
chem|st | lardman: so had nothing to do with my location but with the maps | 13:28 |
lardman | docscrutinizer: how does the coarse accuracy method work then? | 13:28 |
DocScrutinizer | not even police *can* use BTD triangulation | 13:28 |
jase21 | Is there a pymaemo reference to alarmd? My C foo is weak. | 13:28 |
DocScrutinizer | it's a mere circle shaped area around your servicing BTS | 13:28 |
lardman | chem|st: ok, so a map error again | 13:28 |
*** andrei1089 has quit IRC | 13:28 | |
chem|st | lardman: yes | 13:29 |
lardman | docscrutinizer: ah fair enough, I gave them more credit | 13:29 |
jase21 | ? | 13:29 |
DocScrutinizer | coarse accuracy as in maemo even uses center of country if you got bad luck | 13:29 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: that's not precise | 13:29 |
chem|st | lardman: and the network positioning works like "ah you see these 4 cell towers so you must be somewhere around $this position" | 13:29 |
jase21 | Any python experts here? | 13:29 |
*** xim_ has joined #maemo | 13:30 | |
lardman | jase21: not an expert, but what do you want? | 13:30 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: rapuyama queries agps server with network mnc+mcc+cell id | 13:30 |
jase21 | lardman: alarmd reference for pymaemo | 13:30 |
lardman | chem|st: well that's reasonably close to triangulation ;) | 13:30 |
lardman | jase21: no idea, google! | 13:30 |
jase21 | hah. | 13:30 |
jase21 | okay, I'm googling | 13:30 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: only if you're connected to the nets | 13:31 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: so there is support for coarse accuracy usign data from bts | 13:31 |
jacekowski | but it's like 20km accurate | 13:31 |
jacekowski | because i believe it's using single bts for it | 13:31 |
DocScrutinizer | or like 2km | 13:31 |
chem|st | lardman: gets weird when celltower ids get randomized by replacing a tower with another one about 600km away in another city... when I use umts network my first location is 600km away from my actual position and I wont get a gps fix as most of the satelites on sight arent the ones expected | 13:31 |
lardman | :) | 13:32 |
jase21 | Is it better to use C than Python? Seems like its sort of difficult to get hold on api docs for python than for C. | 13:32 |
lardman | so what is this tower "triangulation" service you use? | 13:32 |
lardman | jase21: they may not exist | 13:32 |
DocScrutinizer | chem|st: it doesn't work like this, usually | 13:32 |
lardman | in which case you need to generate the bindings yourself | 13:32 |
chem|st | lardman: reasonable close to triangulation would be some kind of function calculating a coarse position but afaik it is just guessing your psoition | 13:32 |
DocScrutinizer | chem|st: also each cellid is unique | 13:33 |
jase21 | lardman: okay. I'll try using C. Hmm.. | 13:33 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: within mnc+mcc | 13:33 |
DocScrutinizer | for that ncc | 13:33 |
lardman | sure, but what is the service you use that has a db of celltowerid vs lat/lon? | 13:33 |
DocScrutinizer | err mnc | 13:33 |
chem|st | DocScrutinizer: I know, and was really curious about an explanation why umts shows somewhere 600km north-east and gsm just fine?! | 13:33 |
DocScrutinizer | bug in database | 13:34 |
chem|st | lardman: any maps program using the location api has that | 13:34 |

chem|st | lardman: actualy no, I can use that service completely without GPS | 13:41 |
DocScrutinizer | lardman: for this (called assisted GPS, AGPS) you need an estimation to size of a medium sized country | 13:41 |

lardman | Choom: you mean the SUPL data? | 13:43 |
chem|st | DocScrutinizer: my w880i has no wifi, and the gps mouse is not supported by most programs it is able to run | 13:43 |

Choom | lardman: yes | 13:44 |
chem|st | DocScrutinizer: I do not talk about agps | 13:44 |
lardman | so how do you access that data? | 13:44 |
Choom | DocScrutinizer: not technically | 13:44 |
DocScrutinizer | aha | 13:44 |
lardman | by talking to the SUPL server directly? | 13:44 |
DocScrutinizer | Choom: educate me | 13:44 |
chem|st | Choom: me too pls | 13:44 |
lardman | because coarse accuracy in liblocation asks the basestation to provide a location | 13:44 |
Choom | well, cell phone antennas aren't exactly GPS satellites | 13:45 |
DocScrutinizer | lardman: nobody ever asks any BTS for any location | 13:45 |
lardman | docscrutinizer: how does coarse accuracy work then? | 13:45 |
Choom | and thus you can't call that GPS | 13:45 |
*** Termana has joined #maemo | 13:45 | |
DocScrutinizer | and BTS never provides location (except O2 in germany on CBC221) | 13:45 |

lardman | docscrutinizer: http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/beta/liblocation/LocationGPSDControl.html#LOCATION-METHOD-ACWP:CAPS - how does this work if not by querying the location of the basestation? | 13:47 |
chem|st | Choom: by definition AGPS is GPS with network supported almanac downlaod | 13:47 |
Choom | DocScrutinizer: that doesn-t make it a GPS now, dows it | 13:48 |
DocScrutinizer | it is maybe querying the location of the BTS of the given CID. But it doesn't query the BTS about that, cause the BTS won't answer | 13:48 |
lardman | what? | 13:48 |
DocScrutinizer | Choom: google is your friend. wikipedia even more | 13:48 |
Choom | DocScrutinizer: I'm using rhetoric | 13:49 |
lardman | the data is routed via the basestation, without requiring an internet connection | 13:49 |
chem|st | lardman: it does not talk to the tower asking it what location it is in, it needs a server to ask about the CID | 13:49 |
DocScrutinizer | lardman: citation needed | 13:49 |
lardman | docscrutinizer: I'll dig one out, was from talking to the liblocation folks in Berlin | 13:50 |
chem|st | lardman: ehrm I thought it needs internet at it has to ask a server for info... | 13:50 |
lardman | Amsterdam perhaps | 13:50 |
lardman | that's only for the AGNSS method | 13:50 |

*** timeless_mbp has quit IRC | 13:51 | |
DocScrutinizer | lardman: what now? needs, or needs NOT? | 13:51 |
lardman | afaiu ACWP does not need an internet connection, but does need a connection to the network | 13:52 |
DocScrutinizer | ublox AGPS (the gps used in OM FR) is via a server hosted by ublox, or a proxy hosted by you. All are via internet | 13:52 |
lardman | yes, that is SUPL | 13:53 |
lardman | i.e. that is a SUPL server it talks to | 13:53 |
lardman | this method is called AGNSS in liblocation | 13:53 |
chem|st | and CWP does not need a connection at all?! | 13:53 |
lardman | well the country code is transmitted when it connects to the netwok afaiu | 13:54 |
DocScrutinizer | I might accept the possibility GSM specs seen an supplement to enable AGPS in dumb phones (the USA shit), that is somehow implemented in GSN without need for a internet connection | 13:54 |
DocScrutinizer | given the fact the GPS is connected to rapuyama and can be activated without support from application processor system, makes that even more likely | 13:56 |
*** benh has quit IRC | 13:57 | |
chem|st | lardman: ok just tested, CWP does nothing if no cache is available for the CIDs around, after once used ACWP CWP knows the position, what now would be to test is what happens when I drive outside the known area | 13:58 |
DocScrutinizer | anyway, I can positively tell the BTS has no really good notion about where the MT is located. And triangulation needs highly precise timing sync between neighbour BTS that's simply not implemented anywhere | 13:58 |

lardman | no | 14:13 |
lardman | good God, have you guys all got out the wrong side of bed today? | 14:14 |
derf | _I_ am still in bed, so no, not yet. | 14:14 |
chem|st | lardman: actualy that is the idea of SUPL, to have a separate networklayer implemented in wireless networks to provide all data without affecting any effects of normal usage | 14:15 |
balzus | no one? | 14:15 |
DocScrutinizer | hey, you claim our beloved brick has a new cute function that nobody of us ever heard of. You're surprised we want to know the whole story? | 14:15 |
lardman | ah, shall I reiterate | 14:15 |
chem|st | balzus: no clue! but a package compiling on your desktop might need some hands-on for compiling for another architecture | 14:16 |
lardman | chem|st: I know what SUPL is for, the question was simply to ask of whoever it was who said that they were using the SUPL data to obtain lat/lon directly whether they were actually doing this, or whether it was coming by some other method | 14:16 |
tybollt | DocScrutinizer: 'brick' :-D | 14:16 |
DocScrutinizer | lardman: maybe sort your talk and your arguments chain, rather than reinterate | 14:16 |
chem|st | lardman: yes that is the point! why would I powerup battery hungry GPS/wifi if there is BTS positioning | 14:17 |
lardman | docscrutinizer: my understanding, quite possibly wrong, but based on a talk I saw at one of the Maemo summits, was that ACWP does not require an internet connection, but does require a GSM network connection, possible with some layer ontop, I don't know, I'm certainly not claiming to have any expertise in the matter | 14:17 |
DocScrutinizer | I said I'm willing to think of that as a possible way things work, actually even said it's likely regarding how the hardware works | 14:19 |

*** andrei1089 has joined #maemo | 14:19 | |
chem|st | lardman: that is the general idea, not used as they make money with not using it! | 14:19 |
DocScrutinizer | but then we should be able to see a ACWP -enable command sent to rapuyama/cellmo and it coming back with proper 1000m accuracy lon/lat immediately | 14:20 |

*** diegohcg has joined #maemo | 14:20 | |
lardman | docscrutinizer: yes, that would be a way of testing it, I'd like to know whether it works | 14:21 |
chem|st | it is like tesla had ideas of powersupply OTA but everyone could use it without payment so none of the companies will ever do research on that | 14:21 |

ieatlint | yeah, i saw the plugin interface | 15:50 |
lardman | your program can remain independant and be woken via dbus calls too | 15:51 |
lardman | or at least that's what I'm working on atm | 15:51 |
ieatlint | issue is i want it to be 1) straight qt (if possible) to make it portable and 2) have the two methods of authentication done through one interface | 15:51 |

DocScrutinizer | schasch: (lock clock) why do you need a locked device? | 15:52 |

ieatlint | that's fine... you should've seen the hack i had to do to get the magstripe reading done before PR1.3 fixed shit | 15:53 |
lardman | what do you use to do the reading? | 15:53 |
DocScrutinizer | schasch: you know a fulscreen window displaying a clock and simply discarding every X-input event is just as good as a lock anyway? | 15:53 |
ieatlint | audio interface | 15:53 |
lardman | ah ok | 15:53 |
ieatlint | requires a hardware dongle | 15:54 |
schasch | DocScrutinizer : when I I am at work and leave the room | 15:54 |
ieatlint | but i have a near unlimited supply of them for free, heh | 15:54 |
lardman | yeah I guessed that ;) | 15:54 |
schasch | DocScrutinizer : how can I disgard X? | 15:54 |
schasch | s/disgard/discard/ | 15:54 |
ieatlint | PR1.2 and earlier put all recorded audio through a PA filter | 15:54 |
DocScrutinizer | schasch: you can set up this pseudo-lock app in a way it would actually lock the screen when you manage to kill it | 15:54 |
lardman | ieatlint: I didn't realise that | 15:55 |
DocScrutinizer | schasch: why would you want to discard X? | 15:55 |
schasch | DocScrutinizer : I mean the input what you meant... | 15:55 |
ieatlint | meant i had to use libpulseaudio-simple to access the audio interface directly in order to get it working... | 15:55 |
DocScrutinizer | your app could use full screen window so no systray or window title is shown | 15:55 |
ieatlint | was a nasty method calling PA from qt | 15:55 |
schasch | DocScrutinizer : yes that was also the idea...check the maximized state of an app | 15:56 |
schasch | DocScrutinizer : right now I am looking how to do it in Qt | 15:56 |
DocScrutinizer | then you monitor for sighup, sigint, sigterm etc and fire up a lock-device dbus cmd | 15:56 |
DocScrutinizer | also do the same when somebody is trying to steal focus, e.g via ctrl-bs | 15:57 |
ieatlint | happily PR1.3 fixed this, although i see no associated bug closed, and i can use qaudioinput... and have a code base that works on maemo, symbian, windows, linux, os x... and i blindly presume meego | 15:57 |
Venemo_ | schasch: you can use Xlib from a Qt app too | 15:57 |
schasch | ah yes. loosing focus,... if I find out how to do it in Qt, I will write an clock-app for it | 15:58 |
lardman | ieatlint: well you may have problems with the barcode decoders then | 15:58 |

*** panaggio has joined #maemo | 16:10 | |

schasch | DocScrutinizer : for me it is now ok and only 11 downloads and no feedback till now from users | 16:27 |
DocScrutinizer | so I thought a data format conversion plugin for irreco would be a nice universal solution | 16:27 |

DocScrutinizer | WLAN for sure much better than CIR | 16:29 |
schasch | DocScrutinizer : yep | 16:29 |
DocScrutinizer | irreco talks to lirc via local loopback network - it could as well talk to a converter that doesn't control IR-LED but instead sends converted data to VDR via WLAN | 16:31 |

alterego | schasch: it's a qml framework for talking to lirc on the N900 | 16:46 |
alterego | (basically) | 16:46 |
alterego | But that's packaged specifically to be an XBox 360 remote, but you could, looking at the QML source, make it control any configured remote with lirc. | 16:47 |

sivang | hi all | 18:01 |
sivang | can anybody please toss me the links to trapping SMSs and possibly running a script with them/ when they arrive? | 18:01 |
sivang | I had links for this on forum and wiki, but damn gmail | 18:02 |
sivang | "never delete, just search" does not really work | 18:02 |
sivang | whe you've used gmail for long enough | 18:02 |
sivang | I don't need to decode them, just forward them | 18:02 |
sivang | if there's an app for that, that's also good | 18:02 |
sivang | now that I think of it, there's a call forwarder app somewhere that can be used for the same purpose | 18:04 |
DocScrutinizer51 | o.O | 18:04 |
DocScrutinizer51 | call forwarder app? | 18:05 |
DocScrutinizer51 | how'd that work? | 18:05 |

sivang | DocScrutinizer51: I have no idea what I am talking about. but I recall an python app, that traps calls and does soemthing on them | 18:07 |
sivang | quite easily I remember it would be to switch the trapping with listening to sms dbus events | 18:07 |
sivang | and act upon them as well | 18:07 |
sivang | nobody has the link or the app name or so? :) | 18:08 |
DocScrutinizer51 | meh, forget that nonsense call forwarding app. It's a subset of *#ena with a useless GUI | 18:08 |
sivang | okay, but trapping sms's and forwarding them, e.g. using the dbus api to send them onward? | 18:09 |

nomis | the accuracy of the IR transmitter and/or its driver is pretty bad though. | 18:33 |
nomis | I did a test with 100us to 5000us pulses (in 100us steps) and captured the real timing with a IR receiver. Fitting a line against this data set shows, that the pulses on average are too long for about 133us. | 18:35 |

sivang | DocScrutinizer51: do you thihnk it is feasible to use the FM transmitter/antenna to auto probe free fm band to use to transmit to a car? | 18:54 |
nomis | my first shot would be to subtract 133us on pulses longer than that. But I have not yet understood if this affects the pauses as well. | 18:54 |

alterego | Actually, more likely to happen on Saturday as I'm out tomorrow. | 19:50 |
alterego | I've come up with a brainwave though as far as USB serial access is concerned. | 19:50 |
alterego | DocScrutinizer: do you think it'd be okay, if, someone enables USB serial tethering in my app (for NMEA streaming) then I disable pnatd (stop phonet-at) and send data, then on shutdown (start phonet-at). | 19:51 |
alterego | This would mean I hijack the 3G serial connection, but no modified kernel module is required. | 19:51 |
alterego | I'm thinking that's what I'm going to do for this "tech-preview" until I come up with a nice polished new g_nokia driver. | 19:52 |

* lardman heads to the pub for some good | 20:17 | |

*** FIQ|n900 has quit IRC | 20:28 | |

MohammadAG | not on maemo really | 20:29 |
jase21 | why? | 20:29 |
jase21 | Is there anything specific to Qt on maemo that makes it better than gtk+? | 20:29 |
MohammadAG | Yeah, faster UIs | 20:30 |
jase21 | okay. | 20:31 |
MohammadAG | actually, smoother, the PyGTK Hildon PannableArea is really slow | 20:31 |
jase21 | oh. Let me ask you something. Should I use PyMaemo or PyQt? | 20:31 |
trx | thats why mine doesnt use py or qt :) | 20:32 |
jase21 | I was generally of the impression that C is better than C++ and so is the libs written in them. | 20:32 |
MohammadAG | not sure, I dumped both due to Python being slow on a 600MHz device | 20:33 |
jase21 | Oh, so what do you prefer? | 20:33 |

slonopotamus | jase21, python is ~60 times slower than C and is dynamically typed. see, only disadvantages. | 20:52 |
jase21 | hmm.. well not really. Why does segfault occurs at the first place? | 20:52 |
TiagoTiago | i'm trying to setup a SIP account from iptel.org, i already got the account on their server, but i'm having difculties figuring out what i'm doing wrong on my N900; is there a log somewhere for the chat between the N900 and the SIP server for me to see where things are borking? | 20:52 |
slonopotamus | jase21, same question, s/segfault/AttributeError/ | 20:52 |
jase21 | slonopotamus: that's sort of trading between performance and ease of coding. | 20:53 |
luke-jr | jase21: but Python isn't easier, it's harder | 20:53 |
slonopotamus | jase21, ease of coding when you only get runtime checking? no way | 20:54 |
jase21 | Which part of python is harder? Is it becuse its dynamically typed? | 20:54 |
luke-jr | jase21: dunno, it's just a pain | 20:54 |

NooBmonk3y | who what where when why | 22:58 |
trumee | cant believe it since 3g is crappy indoors. | 22:58 |
trumee | they say i am in a good 3g signal area which is definitely not the case | 22:59 |
NooBmonk3y | so they turned off 2g? | 22:59 |
NooBmonk3y | wtf? | 22:59 |
trumee | yes!l!!!! pigs | 23:00 |

NooBmonk3y | off* | 23:06 |
GAN900 | SpeedEvil, I do agree, though. | 23:07 |
GAN900 | Software is the bigger issue | 23:07 |
SpeedEvil | NooBmonk3y: Not really - from memory 3 gets their 2G by buying capacity off someone else. | 23:08 |
SpeedEvil | This means that they have to pay extra | 23:08 |
NooBmonk3y | true SpeedEvil | 23:08 |
NooBmonk3y | but still odd to just turn it off | 23:08 |
*** Ryback_ has quit IRC | 23:08 | |
NooBmonk3y | i'd understand swapping to use another supplier | 23:08 |
NooBmonk3y | 2g is still defacto tbh | 23:09 |
NooBmonk3y | if there was only 3g near me i'd be buggered for 30 miles lol | 23:09 |

lcuk | around these parts | 23:09 |
NooBmonk3y | lcuk, i hear in australia, you fall upwards | 23:09 |
lcuk | o_O | 23:10 |
SpeedEvil | With 6-mo internet boosters @ 1G/mo | 23:10 |
SpeedEvil | If that works for you | 23:10 |
NooBmonk3y | not bad, but i'm on contract as i can never afford the phone price up front | 23:10 |
SpeedEvil | 3 quid/mo internet = win | 23:10 |
SpeedEvil | Ah | 23:10 |
NooBmonk3y | will be starting to look at my next device in jan feb , woooop :) | 23:11 |
lcuk | SpeedEvil, does that also have SMS allowance? | 23:11 |

SpeedEvil | lucent: 10p/each IIRC | 23:11 |

* lcuk calls from home mostly but keeps mob for other uses | 23:13 | |
SpeedEvil | NooBmonk3y: yeah - t-mobile PAYG is very good value for those that don't call or text much, but want 1G/mo internet | 23:14 |
* MohammadAG never uses home phone | 23:14 | |
MohammadAG | I hate monochrome orange-lit displays | 23:14 |
