| timeless_mbp | right, so... | 00:51 |
| timeless_mbp | people who have opinions about strings | 00:52 |
| timeless_mbp | there are three ways to download a message: | 00:52 |
| timeless_mbp | <the full thing> | 00:52 |
| timeless_mbp | <something less than the full thing> | 00:52 |
| timeless_mbp | <only its headers> | 00:52 |
| timeless_mbp | this means that i need 4 strings, those three, plus one to describe what those things are | 00:53 |
| FireStorm| | fooking sms problem doing my nut in :@ | 00:53 |
| timeless_mbp | opinions? Jaffa ? MohammadAG ? Venemo_N900 / SwedeMike ? | 00:53 |
| comawhite | my only grip about mms is the slowness of sending a message (t-mobile issue I'm assuming) | 00:53 |
| timeless_mbp | it's a crappy protocol | 00:53 |
| alterego | "Download" = "Full Message", "Headers Only" | 00:54 |
| timeless_mbp | solving a problem that mostly doesn't exist | 00:54 |
| alterego | Or "Preview" maybe | 00:54 |
| alterego | For the partial | 00:54 |

| timeless_mbp | ShadowJK: there's no currently supported 64bit flash, but yes, it would | 02:42 |
| ShadowJK | getting 32bit versions of all the libraries needed for firefox and flash sounds kinda daunting :-) | 02:43 |
| timeless_mbp | ShadowJK: it really shouldn't be that bad | 02:44 |
| timeless_mbp | otoh, it might be | 02:44 |
| *** daxt has quit IRC | 02:45 | |
| timeless_mbp | it kinda depends on how lame your platform is :) | 02:45 |
| timeless_mbp | (windows just sprinkles magic wow64 pixie dust around) | 02:45 |
| alterego | g'night folks | 02:45 |
| ShadowJK | it'd be cool if middle click or open in new tab opened up new tab, but didn't actually start loading it until you pressed a "do it" button, at which point it'd load all the newly opened tabs with the pages you wanted.. So then you could queue up a bunch of websites, go do something else, and come back and read it all in one go without waiting in between :-) | 02:47 |
| *** daxt has joined #maemo | 02:47 | |
| timeless_mbp | "add bookmark"? :) | 02:47 |
| ShadowJK | But you still have like 5 minutes in total of loading time | 02:48 |
| timeless_mbp | ? | 02:48 |
| timeless_mbp | you can ask the browser to open all bookmarks from a folder as tabs... | 02:48 |
| ShadowJK | Oh :-) | 02:48 |
| ShadowJK | can fennec do this too? | 02:49 |

| lcuk | you mean an option like "do not load new tabs until activated" | 02:54 |
| *** ||jess| has quit IRC | 02:55 | |
| ShadowJK | no I mean a way to postpone actually loading tabs, so that the page you are opening them from stays responsive | 02:55 |
| *** daxt has joined #maemo | 02:55 | |
| lcuk | exactly | 02:55 |
| lcuk | staying on current page just prepares it | 02:55 |
| ShadowJK | like when I read a forum, I don't want to click an individual thread, wait 30 seconds for it to load, read it, click back, wait 30 seconds for index to load, etc | 02:55 |
| lcuk | without actually contacting site | 02:55 |
| lcuk | until you change to the tab | 02:55 |
| ShadowJK | I want to pick threads of interest, and I want those to be loaded in batch while I'm doing something else, so that I can read them all without load times in between | 02:56 |
| ShadowJK | and then go to the next page of the index, and repeat | 02:56 |
| lcuk | thats middle click | 02:56 |
| lcuk | at least desktopish | 02:56 |
| ShadowJK | Yeah I just noticed that in fennec the tab with the "index page" i'm opening the tabs from slows down and becomes somewhat unusable until the newly opened tab has finished downloading | 02:57 |
| ShadowJK | which makes it mostly equivalent to visiting the thread without opening new tab | 02:57 |

| GeneralAntilles | I can't say I'd mind. Working again tomorrow. | 04:01 |
| MohammadAG | why does one get more progress in coding at 4 AM? | 04:03 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | meh. ctl-F on microb needs setting focus to the irclog input field to actually jump to the first match :-/ | 04:04 |
| MohammadAG | I managed to botch up fapman to make it show a list (that I'll just copy to the mediaplayer - just using fapman for testing purposes so I don't ruin my code :P) http://i52.tinypic.com/34xhoit.jpg | 04:04 |

| DocScrutinizer51 | ctl-F search in microb is completely broken | 04:13 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | I wonder how this ever made it beyond QA | 04:13 |
| *** zutesmog has joined #maemo | 04:14 | |
| DocScrutinizer51 | sometimes it works for repeated search by simply hitting CR. Usually it needs some scrolling or even setting focus to some input field of page to find first occurance. next occurance is almost impossible to jump to | 04:18 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | timeless_mbp: ^^^ | 04:18 |
| *** araujo has joined #maemo | 04:18 | |
| timeless_mbp | yeah well | 04:18 |
| timeless_mbp | searching is hard | 04:18 |
| timeless_mbp | and i'm not sure there was any qa done on it | 04:18 |

| *** zutesmog has quit IRC | 04:19 | |

| DocScrutinizer51 | any hints how to work around? | 04:19 |

| timeless_mbp | um, i think you've found the major workaround | 04:19 |

| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: what is that? | 04:24 |
| MohammadAG | timeless_mbp, the mediaplayer rewrite, or the testing base for the list (fapman in this case) | 04:24 |
| MohammadAG | http://gitorious.org/qt-mediaplayer/mediaplayer | 04:24 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: can you replace the title and status lines? :) | 04:24 |
| MohammadAG | hmm? | 04:25 |
| timeless_mbp | "Select packages", "0 package(s) marked",... | 04:25 |
| timeless_mbp | kinda confusing =b | 04:25 |
| MohammadAG | lol | 04:25 |
| MohammadAG | those are fapman's | 04:25 |
| MohammadAG | http://i54.tinypic.com/2jg8853.jpg | 04:25 |

| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: btw, are you borrowing strings or using your own? | 04:26 |
| timeless_mbp | i dropped 'Now playing' from my localization | 04:26 |
| MohammadAG | Using my own, chances are the strings will be replaced when the package mediaplayer is removed | 04:27 |
| MohammadAG | unless I'm mistaken, then that can easily be fixed | 04:27 |

| * timeless_mbp goes back to merging | 04:27 | |
| Dassu | Btw, does anybody know of alternative for gecko-mediaplayer-plugin for the maemo 5? | 04:27 |
| MohammadAG | but it's translatable ;) | 04:27 |
| MohammadAG | not me, sorry | 04:27 |
| Dassu | working gecko-mediaplayer-plugin would be cool but it would require all those gnome libaries | 04:27 |
| timeless_mbp | Dassu: what's the use case? | 04:28 |
| MohammadAG | timeless_mbp, are the strings (.mo files) part of the mediaplayer package? | 04:29 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: they're part of -l10n- packages | 04:29 |
| MohammadAG | timeless_mbp, so if I remove the mediaplayer package, they'd stay there? | 04:29 |
| timeless_mbp | do you clean up orphans? | 04:30 |
| MohammadAG | s/remove/removed | 04:30 |
| MohammadAG | not really | 04:30 |
| timeless_mbp | then yeah. they should survive | 04:30 |
| timeless_mbp | but beware | 04:30 |
| timeless_mbp | my localization changes their strings | 04:30 |
| timeless_mbp | so it isn't a good idea to assume a given string | 04:30 |

| Dassu | Just try out Flash on any linux based system and then try same video with gecko-mediaplayer-plugin | 04:49 |
| Dassu | It is true that flash is quite light on windows but on the Linux that's a whole other story | 04:49 |
| nox- | does flash on n900 use dsp for video? | 04:49 |
| SpeedEvil | mplayer on n900 plays flash videos that flash plays at 2-4fps or so, at 100fps | 04:49 |

| *** daxt has joined #maemo | 04:56 | |
| timeless_mbp | Dassu: most linux distributions don't have source code access to flash | 04:56 |
| timeless_mbp | and don't spend a year trying to optimize it for a single hardware paltform | 04:56 |
| SpeedEvil | Flash can be surprisingly good in some cases on n900 | 04:57 |

| timeless_mbp | Dassu: um | 04:59 |
| Dassu | it is close source | 04:59 |
| * timeless_mbp ponders | 05:00 | |
| SpeedEvil | Adobe clearly does spend time optimising it for windows though. | 05:00 |
| timeless_mbp | Dassu: where do you think binaries come from? | 05:00 |
| timeless_mbp | santa claus? | 05:00 |
| Dassu | timeless_mbp: aargh, dude I meant that the source code is not publicly available | 05:00 |
| Dassu | timeless_mbp: the binaries came from adobe | 05:01 |
| timeless_mbp | Dassu: ok | 05:01 |
| timeless_mbp | no | 05:01 |
| timeless_mbp | the binaries came from nokia | 05:01 |
| timeless_mbp | because *we* paid for source access | 05:01 |
| timeless_mbp | so we could pay *our* team to optimize it | 05:01 |
| Dassu | Can I have a source for that? | 05:03 |
| timeless_mbp | if you pay us a couple of million dollars, perhaps | 05:03 |
| timeless_mbp | but you'll probably get it cheaper if you offer those millions of dollars to adobe.. | 05:03 |

| timeless_mbp | failing to do that more or less ensured that most people wouldn't discover it | 05:15 |

| daxt | Does anybody use Recaller here ? | 06:34 |
| Psi | i do | 06:35 |
| daxt | great | 06:35 |
| Psi | it seems to work fine, i have a folder of all my calls | 06:35 |
| daxt | Psi how did u configure it to record calls ? | 06:35 |

| * Psi looks | 06:35 | |
| daxt | i notice that Recaller slows my N900 :( | 06:35 |
| Psi | in the options i have it set to autorecord | 06:36 |
| *** vivijim has quit IRC | 06:36 | |
| *** vivijim has joined #maemo | 06:36 | |
| Psi | source=phone and format=aac | 06:36 |
| daxt | my settings are the same | 06:36 |
| daxt | yet Phone gets horribly slower | 06:36 |
| Psi | once i accidently clicked record and it was running for a day or something :P | 06:37 |
| Psi | had a 1GB file | 06:37 |
| daxt | storage space is not an issue since we have 32 GB ;) | 06:37 |
| Psi | daxt: how slow is slow? | 06:37 |
| daxt | i tried to uninstall Recaller , and uninstaller in the App manager took around 5 minutes to appear | 06:38 |
| daxt | that is way too slow | 06:38 |
| *** peb_ has joined #maemo | 06:38 | |
| Psi | you mean its slow to browse packages? | 06:38 |
| Psi | i get that on all packages, the whole package app is slow | 06:38 |
| Psi | i didnt think it was anything to do with recaller | 06:39 |
| *** kthomas_vh_ has joined #maemo | 06:39 | |
| Psi | anyone without recaller and who's never installed it care to tell use if your package manager is really slow to download the package list and display anything | 06:41 |
| Psi | use=us | 06:41 |
| daxt | it was package manager slow because recaller was running | 06:42 |
| Psi | running as in recording or just active in memory? | 06:42 |
| daxt | and when i stopped the recaller deamon , package manager works fine | 06:42 |
| daxt | running in recording | 06:42 |
| daxt | probably due to AAC codec , which eats alot of CPU ? | 06:42 |
| Psi | why are you trying to install packages while on the phone? | 06:43 |
| *** kthomas has quit IRC | 06:43 | |
| daxt | i was unable to do kill PID | 06:43 |
| daxt | coz system was that slow | 06:43 |
| daxt | Psi i guess i shud change the codec and experiment with it | 06:44 |
| daxt | FLAC would be nice option | 06:44 |
| Psi | it stops itself once your call ends | 06:45 |
| Psi | i dont see how/why you are using the package manager while on a phonecall | 06:45 |
| daxt | no no no | 06:46 |
| daxt | not while on the phone call | 06:46 |
| daxt | whenever i click on something recaller start to record | 06:46 |
| daxt | that is another prob i have | 06:46 |
| Psi | what do you mean "click on something"? | 06:47 |
| daxt | lets say i change the profile | 06:47 |
| daxt | to silent mode | 06:47 |
| daxt | recaller start recording | 06:47 |
| Psi | ya | 06:47 |
| Psi | so the icon changes to green? | 06:47 |
| daxt | yup | 06:47 |
| Psi | odd | 06:47 |
| daxt | exactly | 06:48 |
| * Psi puts his phone into silent mode | 06:48 | |
| daxt | all i want recaller is to record my calls | 06:48 |
| Psi | just put my phone to silent and recaller did nothing, still red | 06:48 |
| Psi | so it looks like yours is currupt or something | 06:48 |
| daxt | ya | 06:48 |
| daxt | what is the version u have ? | 06:49 |
| Psi | of recaller or phone os? | 06:49 |
| daxt | did u install it via apt-get or installer script ? | 06:49 |
| daxt | both | 06:49 |
| daxt | maemo v and recaller v | 06:49 |
| Psi | recaller 2.1 | 06:49 |
| daxt | How did u install it ? | 06:50 |
| daxt | via apt-get or installer script ? | 06:50 |
| Psi | phone maemo 5 version 20.2010.36-2.002 | 06:50 |
| daxt | H | 06:51 |
| daxt | Psi how did u install it ? | 06:51 |
| Psi | im not sure | 06:52 |
| Psi | but i think it was through the package manager | 06:52 |
| daxt | i installed via installer script | 06:52 |
| daxt | its where i have gone wrong i guess | 06:52 |
| daxt | let me follow your way | 06:52 |
| Psi | tried to kill it with a -9 ? | 06:53 |
| Psi | but yeah, remove it and install from package manager and try that | 06:54 |
| Psi | im pretty sure i first came across the app when browsing the apps in the package manager and installed it from there | 06:54 |
| *** radic has quit IRC | 06:55 | |
| daxt | Psi what is the repository which Recaller is contained | 06:56 |
| Psi | hm.. | 06:56 |
| * Psi looks | 06:56 | |
| * Psi waits while app manager loads the list | 06:56 | |
| Psi | this will take a minute | 06:56 |
| Psi | or 2 | 06:57 |
| daxt | n/p | 06:57 |
| *** kthomas has joined #maemo | 06:58 | |
| daxt | its recaller 2.1 | 06:59 |
| Psi | hm.. i cant tell | 07:00 |
| Psi | it doesnt show up because i have it installed already | 07:00 |
| daxt | n/p | 07:01 |
| Psi | i can tell you what repos i have setuo | 07:01 |
| daxt | maemo 5 20.2010.36.2.203.1 | 07:03 |
| daxt | is this the same as yours ? | 07:03 |
| psycho_oreos | too many dots but I would say the same except installed different locality | 07:03 |
| Psi | nokia applications / noki asystem software update / ovi / maemo.org / mozilla multi catalog / tools / extra-devel / extra-testing / | 07:03 |
| Psi | yeah, i dunno what the end part of the version number means | 07:04 |
| daxt | psycho_oreos of course i am from south asia :) | 07:04 |
| psycho_oreos | various releases, indian release, south africa, USA, asia, etc | 07:04 |
| *** zutesmog has quit IRC | 07:05 | |
| psycho_oreos | its pretty well documented on the tablets-dev.nokia.com I think for firmware downloads | 07:05 |
| *** FireFly has quit IRC | 07:06 | |
| psycho_oreos | otherwise both of you are running the same base version, PR1.3 | 07:06 |
| daxt | yup | 07:07 |

| *** swc|666 has joined #maemo | 07:07 | |

| daxt | i close to FLAC codec on the Recaller and now System seems to be fast but 1.01 minute file is 3.4 mb | 07:08 |
| psycho_oreos | and you have a newer version Psi for recaller, most likely because you have enabled extras-devel/extras-testing, my recaller version states 2.0 | 07:08 |
| daxt | unusual ? | 07:08 |
| psycho_oreos | daxt, not sure | 07:09 |
| daxt | now the system responsiveness is much better | 07:09 |
| *** gnexuss has quit IRC | 07:10 | |
| psycho_oreos | I'd probably check the recording to see if it works or its corrupt | 07:10 |
| Psi | yeah, i probably should turn off extra-devel | 07:10 |
| Psi | never had a prob yet tho | 07:11 |
| *** nox- has quit IRC | 07:11 | |
| daxt | Psi what do u think about FLAC over AAC ? | 07:11 |
| psycho_oreos | not an ideal thing as you are grabbing the bleeding edge stuff but if you really wanted to be on the bleeding edge or have you device deliberately set that way then you can leave it on | 07:11 |
| Psi | daxt: never really thought about it | 07:12 |
| Psi | AAC seems fine | 07:12 |
| daxt | ya but it eats alot of CPU | 07:12 |
| Psi | cant say ive noticed | 07:12 |
| Psi | because when its recording im on a call | 07:12 |
| psycho_oreos | FLAC is free/open, AAC remains mostly part of Apple | 07:13 |
| daxt | try to record while your not on call by clicking on record button | 07:13 |
| daxt | and see how the system responds | 07:13 |
| daxt | then u shud be able to notice | 07:13 |
| daxt | FLAC is the new mp3 :) | 07:13 |
| psycho_oreos | not to many however who still thinks mp3 is a widely used format despite the lawsuits | 07:14 |
| daxt | time to switch to FLAC | 07:14 |
| Psi | seems fine | 07:15 |
| Psi | maybe a little slower | 07:15 |
| Psi | but not enough to really notice | 07:15 |
| lolloo | is there battlefiled badcompany2 stats widget for N900? | 07:15 |
| lolloo | anyone know a ventrilo client for N900? | 07:15 |
| Psi | fine was 1MB and i had it recording for about 1min | 07:16 |
| Psi | wasnt talking or anything tho, just background music | 07:16 |
| Psi | the biggest aac file i have in the folder is 10MB | 07:16 |
| Psi | deleted that 1GB one i accidently made when i left it on :P | 07:17 |
| Psi | gunna install the overclocked kernel in a month when my warrenty expires | 07:17 |
| Psi | that should be fun | 07:17 |
| psycho_oreos | my biggest aac is 511MB, I've used aac recording at the time because I couldn't get media player on n900 to play flac files (little did I know I was missing ogg support at the time hence that's why its not working) | 07:19 |
| Psi | ive still not bothered to buy a usdcard for my n900 | 07:20 |
| Psi | onboard 32gb is awesome | 07:20 |
| psycho_oreos | neither have I | 07:20 |
| psycho_oreos | lol I'll get another 32 or so GB class 6 or better microSD once it comes out and the prices becomes cheaper | 07:21 |
| daxt | why do u need another sdcard when u have 32 gb ???? | 07:22 |
| psycho_oreos | the need for ext2/3 type storage is much more ideal to work with rather than meddling with fat32 | 07:22 |
| psycho_oreos | and plus it isn't true 32GB, its 29GB when its shared with /home anyway | 07:22 |
| psycho_oreos | /home and swap | 07:23 |
| daxt | well even 29 GB is more than enuf | 07:23 |
| daxt | u r not shooting porn videos , r u ? | 07:24 |
| psycho_oreos | yeah but the fat32 doesn't really honour linux attributes well | 07:24 |
| *** zutesmog has joined #maemo | 07:24 | |
| psycho_oreos | lol does that matter? :) in the very least when and if I get my own microSD I can then install android port, meego, etc which by then it should be all stable.. and store files in which I can meddle with the attributes in full rather than having to make do with fat32 | 07:25 |
| daxt | is there a way to make the onboard one ext3 ? | 07:26 |
| daxt | guys i got another issue , when ever i changes the battery , N900 forgets it's current time | 07:29 |
| daxt | is there a way to fix it ? | 07:29 |

| bluenemo | hi guys. i was wondering how close the n900 was to the openmoko. my questions were if i could 1: remove maemo overall for debian and 2: install maemo in LVM2 with dm_crypt | 11:13 |
| psycho_oreos | I don't have openmoko to test but I wouldn't say that it would be all that close, n900 has lots of proprietary blobs | 11:14 |
| psycho_oreos | unless you want to start re-adopting stuff that were later ported to meego which is more open source in some retrospects to get them back onto debian.. lots of messing around imo and meego is still very much WIP | 11:15 |
| petteri | debian on n900: https://elektranox.org/n900/ | 11:16 |
| bluenemo | i dont think i quite get it :) is meego now the choice for the n900? | 11:17 |
| bluenemo | cool meego uses btrfs :) that rocks@! | 11:19 |
| psycho_oreos | maemo contains proprietary components, some of which actually utilise hardware functionality of the n900. Without proprietary components n900 would not function as it is such as phone calling.. meego is where there's community devs from maemo working to make meego work on n900 by creating open codes so that there's no proprietary components and all that jazz.. however because the individual components that were made open on meego won't necessarily work for | 11:20 |
| psycho_oreos | debian or whatever other distro you want to install so then it needs to be ported from that to make it work with the distro you choose | 11:20 |
| bluenemo | hm ok i c | 11:21 |
| psycho_oreos | but meego and meego porting to n900 are both works in progress, so they are not complete and expect things to crash.. even when you make debian to work with those once proprietary codes for the various built-in chips on n900 | 11:21 |
| bluenemo | hm ok.. well i'd wouldnt hurt me to have a few properitery stuff running on it.. whats improtant for me is that i can crypt it right.. how far do i have access to the internal 32gb? can i make them appear like, say /dev/sdX ? | 11:24 |
| ShadowJK | /dev/mmcblk0p* | 11:25 |
| bluenemo | is it shown like that on the devices cmd line or when i attach it via usb? | 11:26 |
| *** ||jess| has joined #maemo | 11:26 | |
| psycho_oreos | the proprietary components won't work with other distribution without being ported and porting requires source code plus knowledge to be able to hack to make it work | 11:27 |
| *** florian has quit IRC | 11:27 | |
| bluenemo | hm yes i know. i thought about just using both, debian and maemo, booting whatever whenever i need it | 11:27 |
| bluenemo | but most importantly, both needs to be in LVM2 and dm_crypt | 11:28 |
| psycho_oreos | bluenemo, the link petteri mentioned on the front page pretty much describes what happens when you try installing debian on n900, no phone calling capability because the driver is proprietary | 11:28 |
| ShadowJK | MeeGo is using oFono for calls, and I think that's open. Atleast jebba made phonecalls in, I think, Fedora on N900 using it.. | 11:29 |
| ShadowJK | probably no UI exists though :) | 11:29 |
| bluenemo | the debian wouldnt need to support phone calling for me, i'd need umts and wlan basicly.. | 11:30 |

| bluenemo | ShadowJK and others, thank you a lot for your help. i'm not quite shure if i should buy it.. | 11:58 |
| bluenemo | it seems fun so far if your not a total linux freak.. i think using it and staying normal user with maemo is fun, but developing for it i'm not shure.. | 11:59 |
| * trumee thinks his headache might be due to squinting at the small N900 screen | 12:01 | |
| bluenemo | lol :) trumee i thought there were some x11vnc capabilitys and stuff? | 12:02 |
| trumee | Easier to use N900 in bed than a laptop :) | 12:03 |
| ShadowJK | :) | 12:03 |
| bluenemo | has nobody ever tried LVM and dm_crypt? basicly thats the most important thing for me.. | 12:03 |
| trumee | But increasing the xchat font has helped a bit. | 12:03 |
| bluenemo | trumee, lol :) | 12:03 |
| bluenemo | i like using my t60p in bed :) | 12:03 |
| bluenemo | xD | 12:03 |
| ShadowJK | N810 was better for that, bigger screen :) | 12:04 |
| bluenemo | i mean the NAND wouldnt be crypted of course... kernel and grub is not crypted normaly as well (as you couldnt decrypt it then ;) but the rest has to be.. | 12:05 |
| ShadowJK | the nand isn't a normal block device, and ubifs doesn't work on block devices | 12:06 |
| ShadowJK | lvm deals with block devices | 12:06 |
| bluenemo | i know, i wont want to crypt the nand, only everything else | 12:07 |
| ShadowJK | I'd just run stuff from a microsd card and keep the nand mostly untouched with a "backup" os dulboot style | 12:07 |
| *** silbo_ has joined #maemo | 12:07 | |
| bluenemo | but i cant crypt maemo, can I ? | 12:07 |
| ShadowJK | Well, /home is ext3 so it would be possible | 12:08 |
| ShadowJK | however, fitting it into the init scripts would be "interesting" :) | 12:08 |
| bluenemo | lol :) | 12:08 |
| bluenemo | how many partitions are there normally? | 12:09 |
| ShadowJK | 3 on the emmc | 12:09 |
| bluenemo | emmc? | 12:09 |
| ShadowJK | 768M swap, 2gig /home and /opt, fat32 for the rest of the 32g | 12:09 |
| ShadowJK | emmc = integrated 32gigabyte (marketing bytes) mmc | 12:10 |
| bluenemo | marketing bytes :D | 12:11 |
| ShadowJK | 32 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000 bytes :) | 12:12 |
| kerio | they call it SI | 12:12 |
| bluenemo | :) | 12:12 |
| bluenemo | and maemo is installed by say dd an image to the device? or is it like installing a 'normal' linux (from a cd ur usb boot stick or sth)? | 12:13 |
| bluenemo | ur = or | 12:14 |
| ShadowJK | kinda like dd | 12:14 |
| kerio | never dd a NAND | 12:14 |
| ShadowJK | actual real dd is a bad idea to use on nand, it might accidentally work on some devices but will fuck up on others | 12:15 |
| Venemo | it's a bit more than dd afaik. eg. the flasher tool can account for errornous sectors and such. | 12:15 |
| Venemo | you'd need to ask DocScrutinizer, he knows more about this | 12:15 |
| bluenemo | ok thank you guys | 12:15 |
| bluenemo | i saw this youtube vid where a guy told about maemo running debian in a vm.. can maemo run vm's? | 12:16 |
| ShadowJK | he meant chroot | 12:16 |
| bluenemo | ok thought so | 12:17 |
| bluenemo | would be fun with 600mhz arm xD | 12:17 |
| bluenemo | hm well well. i think if i dont want to only develop i'd have to use maemo.. but as I have customer information i cant afford not to run around with it crypted.. | 12:18 |
| bluenemo | i'd be interested in developing as well, also i dont very much appreciate properitary 'traps'.. | 12:19 |
| ShadowJK | Well you probably need quite some devloper skills to get encryption setup anyway | 12:20 |
| bluenemo | on maemo yes, shure | 12:20 |
| bluenemo | i read meego uses btrfs.. that supports encryption as well. do you know anything about meego and crypt? | 12:21 |
| Venemo | bluenemo: ask that on #meego | 12:22 |
| bluenemo | btrfs is sooo cool btw :) | 12:22 |

| bluenemo | ShadowJK, about the partitions: you said /home is ext3, what about /opt (and what is /opt for overall?)? where is the rest of the 32gb mounted? does it have to be fat32? | 12:26 |
| bluenemo | googeled for /opt, seems obsolete.. you propably didnt meant that /opt has a own partition, did you? | 12:31 |

| timeless_mbp | you have the ability to control how messages download | 17:15 |
| timeless_mbp | options are "Headers only", "Preview", "Full message" | 17:16 |
| timeless_mbp | there needs to be a label | 17:16 |
| *** n900evil has quit IRC | 17:16 | |
| timeless_mbp | "Download" doesn't work | 17:16 |
| timeless_mbp | I could use "Message headers only", "Message preview" and "Full message" | 17:16 |
| timeless_mbp | sound ok? | 17:16 |
| alterego | Yeah, sounds good :) | 17:16 |
| timeless_mbp | hrm, "Message previews" and "Full messages" ? | 17:16 |
| alterego | I don't think that matters. | 17:17 |
| alterego | It's implied .. | 17:17 |
| alterego | I prefer the singular form anyway, don't know why :) | 17:17 |
| timeless_mbp | yeah, i do too | 17:17 |
| timeless_mbp | the problem i had was 'headers' threw me | 17:17 |
| timeless_mbp | but thinking about it, it means headers for *one* message | 17:17 |
| alterego | Yes, exactly. | 17:18 |
| *** Vanadis has joined #maemo | 17:18 | |
| timeless_mbp | oh brother | 17:18 |
| timeless_mbp | so, there's a checkbox "Sync sent items" | 17:18 |
| timeless_mbp | an account has "Sent" and "Sent items" | 17:18 |
| timeless_mbp | i don't know what "sent items" is | 17:19 |
| timeless_mbp | ... | 17:19 |
| timeless_mbp | oh, and for kicks... | 17:19 |
| timeless_mbp | the accounts i'm using are configured to "Sync sent items" | 17:19 |
| timeless_mbp | the Sent folder has 2 items, and Sent items has 1 item (not the same as either of the two in Sent) | 17:20 |
| timeless_mbp | Dear lazy maemo nokia messaging web, "WTF does this widget do?" | 17:20 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: you claimed you use Nokia Messaging? | 17:21 |
| MohammadAG | yeah | 17:21 |
| timeless_mbp | can you open account settings for nm, in synchronization, is "Sync sent items" checked? | 17:22 |
| timeless_mbp | if so, can you tell me what it does? | 17:22 |
| timeless_mbp | if not, would you be willing to risk trying it and then telling me what it does? :) | 17:22 |
| timeless_mbp | thanks | 17:22 |
| MohammadAG | It syncs your sent folder with the one on the web afaik | 17:23 |
| MohammadAG | so you can see sent items from gmail.com (for example) on the N900 | 17:23 |
| MohammadAG | and vice versa, emails sent from the N900 show on gmail.com | 17:23 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: right | 17:24 |
| timeless_mbp | is that "Sent" or "Sent items" ? | 17:24 |
| timeless_mbp | or does it effectively sync "Sent" with "Sent items"? | 17:24 |
| MohammadAG | yeah | 17:25 |
| *** hurbu has quit IRC | 17:25 | |
| timeless_mbp | so the fact that it's out of sync here is an anomaly? oh good | 17:25 |
| *** t_s_o has joined #maemo | 17:25 | |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: and if you send a message using gmail.com it'll appear in "Sent" via nokia messaging? (eventually) | 17:26 |
| MohammadAG | it should | 17:26 |
| * MohammadAG checks | 17:26 | |
| timeless_mbp | thanks | 17:26 |
| MohammadAG | yep | 17:27 |
| MohammadAG | sent items from gmail.com are on my device | 17:27 |
| alterego | Anyhow, bbiab | 17:27 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: in 'Sent' | 17:27 |
| timeless_mbp | (as opposed to 'Sent items') | 17:27 |
| * MohammadAG checks the string he hes | 17:27 | |
| MohammadAG | has* | 17:27 |
| timeless_mbp | not yet localized by me, coming up in about an hour | 17:28 |
| timeless_mbp | once i get these silly corners understood | 17:28 |
| MohammadAG | heh, it decided to get stuck | 17:28 |
| *** ptl has quit IRC | 17:28 | |
| timeless_mbp | ah! that's more like it! :) | 17:28 |
| MohammadAG | yes, in "Sent" | 17:28 |
| timeless_mbp | i presume 'Sent items' also has the same content? :) | 17:29 |
| * MohammadAG wonders why they use a GtkButton for New message | 17:29 | |
| *** Vanadis has quit IRC | 17:29 | |
| MohammadAG | but only in the Nokia Messaging window | 17:29 |
| MohammadAG | the rest of modest uses a HildonButton | 17:29 |
| timeless_mbp | hrm | 17:29 |
| timeless_mbp | how are you determining this? | 17:29 |
| * timeless_mbp is too lazy to pull up the source | 17:29 | |
| *** n900evil has joined #maemo | 17:29 | |
| nidO | the difference between "sent" and "sent items" is purely poor coding and laziness | 17:29 |
| MohammadAG | it's still loading lol | 17:29 |
| timeless_mbp | nidO: not true | 17:30 |
| timeless_mbp | w/o checking this check box, 'Sent' and 'Sent items' are divorced | 17:30 |
| MohammadAG | for the Gtk vs hildon thing, you can clearly see it from the styling | 17:30 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: what theme? | 17:30 |
| timeless_mbp | one is a local folder and the other is a remote folder | 17:30 |
| MohammadAG | default one | 17:30 |
| timeless_mbp | hrm | 17:30 |
| MohammadAG | hildon buttons have a gradient | 17:30 |
| nidO | yes true, "sent" is the folder name that's been used by mailservers for the best part of 2 decades for sent mail | 17:30 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: :o | 17:30 |
| MohammadAG | Gtk buttons are gray with no gradient | 17:30 |
| timeless_mbp | yeah, i misunderstood how many levels of nm there were | 17:30 |
| timeless_mbp | nidO: not true | 17:31 |
| nidO | then client devs (mainly stemming from outlook express) started defaulting to calling a sent items folder as "sent items" | 17:31 |
| MohammadAG | 2 I think | 17:31 |
| nidO | which then gets created by the client | 17:31 |
| MohammadAG | the mainwindow, which feeds folders to modest | 17:31 |
| MohammadAG | or that's how I think it does it | 17:31 |
| MohammadAG | that main window (for nm) uses a GtkButton | 17:31 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: accounts list, folder list, folder | 17:31 |
| timeless_mbp | i was looking at folder list and went into folder and saw no difference | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | yeah | 17:32 |
| timeless_mbp | i needed to exit accounts list to get to modest | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | timeless_mbp, | 17:32 |
| timeless_mbp | and then i saw | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | the Sent items isn't bad coding | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | it's bad user understanding :P | 17:32 |
| timeless_mbp | ... | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | that's you subscribed to your folder on Nokia Messaging's settings site | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | the folder on gmail.com is called Sent items | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | rename it to something else, and it'll be changed in modest | 17:32 |
| MohammadAG | so it's not a string from modest, it's sent from the server | 17:33 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: if you sync, will a new folder be created for Sent items that are synceD? | 17:33 |
| MohammadAG | If you unsubscribe from the folder, and have the option ticked, your sent items will appear in sent | 17:33 |
| timeless_mbp | i can't subscribe to folders w. nokia messaging, right? | 17:34 |
| MohammadAG | "Sent items" is the folder you're subscribed to here http://email.nokia.com/account/home.action | 17:34 |
| MohammadAG | you can | 17:34 |
| MohammadAG | and there's a bug which no one checked/fixed | 17:34 |

| timeless_mbp | the general rule in C for an exported function is: once it's exported, you can't change its arguments, return value, or behavior | 18:39 |
| timeless_mbp | the same rule needs to apply to po/mo strings | 18:40 |
| lcuk | timeless_mbp, at what point in a project would you say is the right one to consider translations and internationalisation? :) | 18:40 |
| MohammadAG | what's abi? | 18:40 |
| MohammadAG | new fancy word for api? | 18:40 |
| lcuk | application binary interface | 18:40 |
| timeless_mbp | MohammadAG: application binary interface | 18:40 |
| alterego | application binary iface | 18:40 |
| lcuk | you can have same API but compiled for different cpus | 18:40 |
| lcuk | or settings of same cpu | 18:40 |
| *** lolloo has quit IRC | 18:40 | |
| lcuk | which effect the ABI :P | 18:40 |
| alterego | Basically it's the linking api between shared libraries and executables. | 18:40 |
| timeless_mbp | people tend to think of APIs in terms of source level compatibility | 18:40 |
| timeless_mbp | ABI is binary compatibility | 18:41 |
| timeless_mbp | you can say "this source file compiles with that source file" | 18:41 |
| timeless_mbp | but if the binary you generated from <this source file> doesn't work with the binary generated from <that source file> | 18:41 |
| timeless_mbp | and both binaries are in the wild, then you've made a mess | 18:41 |
| timeless_mbp | people tend to try to work around getting this right by doing "packaging" | 18:42 |
| timeless_mbp | which is basically like trying to string duct tape between exposed wires and volatile explosives | 18:42 |
| timeless_mbp | it might work.. for a little while | 18:42 |
| alterego | A classic example is how in meego we're moving to hardfp, which means you can't run chroots for armv7l debian anymore. | 18:42 |
| alterego | Or maemo bins, or palm pre | 18:42 |
| * timeless_mbp notes that in theory one could create stubs to deal w/ that | 18:43 | |
| timeless_mbp | if this was being done by ms or apple, they'd have been created too | 18:43 |
| timeless_mbp | but no, we're linux, getting things right isn't a requirement :) | 18:43 |
| timeless_mbp | nor is offering a migration path | 18:43 |
| timeless_mbp | (no, i'm not bitter) | 18:44 |
| timeless_mbp | (but i am hungry) | 18:44 |
| alterego | But we have a good speed boost, so it's a worthwhile trade off, and hopefully ubuntu and emdebian will catch up with the hard float stuff. | 18:44 |

| sivang | timeless_mbp: what is it? | 20:05 |
| timeless_mbp | localization replacement which should work in 1.1, 1.2 or eventually 1.3 | 20:05 |
| timeless_mbp | there were breaks between 1.2 and 1.3 in addition to the breaks from 1.1 to 1.2 | 20:06 |
| sivang | I see | 20:06 |
| timeless_mbp | note that it's perfectly legal for someone to upgrade from 1.0 to 1.1 to 1.2. to 1.3 | 20:06 |
| sivang | right | 20:06 |
| timeless_mbp | and my package should survive being installed between any of those upgrades | 20:06 |
| sivang | I wonder what happens if you start from 1.0 now | 20:06 |
| timeless_mbp | iirc it'll do incremental upgrades | 20:07 |
| *** Venemo has joined #maemo | 20:07 | |

| timeless_mbp | probably 1.0 => 1.0.1 => 1.1 => 1.2 => 1.3 | 20:07 |

| sivang | timeless_mbp: ah! | 20:07 |
| sivang | I see | 20:07 |
| sivang | interesting problem indeed. | 20:07 |
| timeless_mbp | because some idiot changed foo_string from "%s" to "%s %s" | 20:07 |
| sivang | oh geesz | 20:07 |
| timeless_mbp | thus if i use a "%s %s" string in an older version... | 20:07 |
| timeless_mbp | BAD | 20:07 |
| * sivang understands the problem to its fullest now | 20:07 | |
| nox- | eww | 20:08 |
| timeless_mbp | note: technically more than one idiot | 20:08 |
| timeless_mbp | (that makes it all better, right?) | 20:08 |
| sivang | so there's gotta be a way then, I'm sure DocScrutinizer or someone will know :) | 20:08 |
| timeless_mbp | sivang: i already deal w/ it for 1.1=>1.2 | 20:09 |
| timeless_mbp | i just need to pick the right condition for 1.2=>1.3 | 20:09 |
| timeless_mbp | and using a meta package or similar is absolutely wrong | 20:09 |
| sivang | how do you deal with it there? | 20:09 |
| sivang | timeless_mbp: I gree completely | 20:09 |
| timeless_mbp | i check for the package that broke the abi fo strings in 1.2 :) | 20:09 |
| timeless_mbp | which was libhildon | 20:09 |
| timeless_mbp | for =>1.3 it looks like i get to check address book | 20:09 |
| timeless_mbp | since that's the offender i can see | 20:09 |
| timeless_mbp | but first i need to deal w/ a mismerge or three | 20:10 |
| timeless_mbp | dealing w/ packaging is a minor hickup | 20:10 |

| * timeless_mbp is amused | 20:10 | |
| *** uen has quit IRC | 20:10 | |
| DocScrutinizer | timeless_mbp: from a Qt-Linguist perspective "foo %s" and "foo %s %s" are distinct strings that can coexist | 20:11 |
| timeless_mbp | DocScrutinizer: linguist is stupid | 20:12 |
| timeless_mbp | a localization tool is only as useful as its understanding of inputs | 20:12 |
| DocScrutinizer | ok, nevermind then | 20:12 |
| timeless_mbp | you're looking at input "foo %s" output "%s FOO" | 20:12 |
| timeless_mbp | the input is "foo_1" the output was "foo %s" the new output is "foo %s %s" | 20:12 |
| timeless_mbp | and linguist would need to compare either a pot or a pair of po's to recognize that there's an abi break | 20:13 |
| timeless_mbp | note: in some ways nokia gets things right | 20:13 |
| timeless_mbp | if i want to *fix* the US English for a program, I shouldn't have to source hack it | 20:13 |
| timeless_mbp | and i shouldn't be screwed by a code string freeze | 20:13 |
| timeless_mbp | you solve this by using identifiers in the code instead of _("what you might see %s") | 20:14 |
| timeless_mbp | but if you use identifiers, you must *not* recycle them | 20:14 |
| *** lolloo has joined #maemo | 20:14 | |
| timeless_mbp | and that's where nokia gets things wrong | 20:14 |
| juk | yaiks | 20:14 |
| timeless_mbp | -- the other problem with using _("%s - %s") is that you typically fail to provide context | 20:15 |
| alterego | My gfs mum got me this neat new mouse. | 20:15 |
| timeless_mbp | which means that if you need to translate one as "%s / %s" and another as "%s : %s", your screwed | 20:15 |
| timeless_mbp | again, using unique identifiers avoids that version of problems | 20:16 |
| timeless_mbp | but again, you can't recycle an identifier to mean *something else* | 20:16 |
| timeless_mbp | identifiers are cheap, (unless you're idiots) | 20:16 |
| DocScrutinizer-8 | timeless_mbp: nonsense. Qt tr() is looking up translation in a table with primary key 'foo %s', | 20:16 |
| timeless_mbp | DocScrutinizer-8: again, that's not how the code works | 20:16 |
| timeless_mbp | it uses tr("my_identifier") | 20:16 |
| DocScrutinizer-8 | then the resulting translation is fed to printf() | 20:16 |
| timeless_mbp | you're making a stupid assumption | 20:16 |
| timeless_mbp | and ignoring the fact that i'm *telling* you that we don't use _() or tr() that way | 20:17 |
| timeless_mbp | and we shouldn't | 20:17 |
| timeless_mbp | for the reason i describe in the "%s - %s" problem | 20:17 |
| timeless_mbp | s/your screwed/you're screwed/ | 20:18 |
| * timeless_mbp needs breakfast, lunch and dinner | 20:18 | |
| DocScrutinizer-8 | obviously | 20:18 |

| timeless_mbp | msgid "inpu_ib_quick_layout_switch" | 20:20 |
| timeless_mbp | -msgstr "Keyboard layout switched to %s" | 20:20 |
| timeless_mbp | +msgstr "Keyboard layout swapped" | 20:20 |
| timeless_mbp | DocScrutinizer-8: think of that as tr("inpu_ib_quick_layout_switch") | 20:20 |
| timeless_mbp | inpu_ib_quick_layout_switch is the primary key | 20:20 |
| timeless_mbp | and one .ts file has "Keyboard layout swapped" and another has "Keyboard layout switched to %s" | 20:20 |
| *** ||jess| has joined #maemo | 20:25 | |
| DocScrutinizer-8 | now let me say for all I understand how tr() is supposed to work that's a completely wrecked and gimme-trouble way to use it | 20:27 |
| * timeless_mbp shrugs | 20:28 | |
| timeless_mbp | tr() and _() are stupid | 20:28 |
| DocScrutinizer-8 | tr() when missing .po is using the original string. So original and translation MUST have same number of %variables | 20:28 |
| timeless_mbp | the way that they were "designed" to work fail for the reasons i've described above for "%s - %s" | 20:28 |
| lcuk | DocScrutinizer-8, the way timeless explained it is more sensible than using printf style things in - simply for the case of duplication as he outlined | 20:29 |
| timeless_mbp | DocScrutinizer-8: and simply put the "fallback case" is something which package management should solve | 20:29 |
| lcuk | and missing translation files are a bug in themselves | 20:29 |
| timeless_mbp | you shouldn't be allowed to provide a localization that's incomplete | 20:29 |
| DocScrutinizer-8 | uhu | 20:29 |
| timeless_mbp | that's a *reasonable* requirement | 20:29 |
| lcuk | timeless_mbp, for fremantle we attempted afaik to make EN_GB as default fallback | 20:30 |
| timeless_mbp | otoh, requiring localizers to be able to split themselves in n ways is a mess | 20:30 |
| timeless_mbp | lcuk: 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3? :) | 20:30 |
| timeless_mbp | or do you mean that the device's libc will pull in en_GB strings automatically? | 20:30 |
| lcuk | hold on I will find the bug, i cant recall off hand whether we had to roll it back | 20:30 |

| sivang | :) | 20:45 |
| DocScrutinizer | now by reading backscroll, I notice what you meant with duplicity and '%s - %s' problem. Qt *has* context for that. You either set it explicitly, or it's implicitly taken from source-file name, and maybe also function/object name | 20:45 |
| *** e-yes has quit IRC | 20:46 | |

| sivang | timeless_xchat: interesting. I was sure you had to take a mohel for that. | 20:47 |
| DocScrutinizer | this way your "identifiers" are perfect when looking like "foo %s" or even "%s", and you can distinguish between "%s" in one location and "%s" in another. And tell that apart from "%s %s" | 20:47 |

| timeless_xchat | it's almost universally unused | 20:49 |
| DocScrutinizer | ok so let's fuck it up fubar, so maybe it gets better than - QED | 20:49 |
| sivang | DocScrutinizer: how do you define the context in this case? where the string is useD? mid? | 20:49 |
| timeless_xchat | docscrutinizer, screwing up identifiers takes considerably more talent than missing context | 20:50 |
| DocScrutinizer | sivang: all that is explained to epic length and detail in Qt linguist manual | 20:50 |
| timeless_xchat | but yes, our ui designers are talented | 20:50 |
| timeless_xchat | sivang, gettext has a dgettext and a something gettext where you provide context | 20:50 |
| timeless_xchat | but the reality is that it isn't done right/well/ever | 20:51 |

| SpeedEvil | That does kinda assume that that language is english though | 20:53 |
| timeless_xchat | i suppose dcgettext is the equivalent. .. | 20:53 |
| timeless_xchat | speedevil: terrible principle | 20:54 |
| timeless_xchat | note that _random_long_string_i_can_google is useful | 20:54 |
| sivang | so I can chose domains based on the language for example? | 20:54 |
| timeless_xchat | short unintelligible english string missing context is not | 20:55 |
| sivang | o based on sepcifci msgids I know are changed wrt to argument interpolation order and stuff? | 20:55 |
| timeless_xchat | sivang : you aren't supposed to know about the language | 20:55 |
| sivang | timeless_xchat: right, so based on "problematic" msgids? | 20:55 |
| * nox- also often prefers english locale bc translations are often bad/wrong/not understandable | 20:55 | |
| timeless_xchat | but basically you might have "new"/"file" | 20:55 |
| timeless_xchat | and "new"/"folder" | 20:55 |
| timeless_xchat | both might have the string "new" | 20:55 |
| sivang | nox-: I've never used Hebrew in computers, when someone addresses me in Hebrew I tend to ask him to accept my english typing as I developed no typing skills in it. | 20:56 |
| nox- | heh | 20:56 |
| timeless_xchat | but a language might need e.g. feminine or masculine for one/the other | 20:56 |
| timeless_xchat | nox: indeed | 20:56 |
| timeless_xchat | localizations tend to be awful | 20:56 |
| nox- | exactly | 20:56 |
| timeless_xchat | it doesn't help that the originals tend to suck | 20:56 |
| DocScrutinizer | ok, >>short unintelligible english string missing context is not<< So Nokia decided it's better to have TANA_FI_HOME_THUMB is better then, rather than have "user %s's homescreen" and provide context in a way Qt tr() was designed to do it | 20:57 |
| timeless_xchat | but put slightly bad in, get extremely bad out | 20:57 |
| timeless_xchat | docscrutinizer : err | 20:57 |
| Arkenoi | noticed an annoying thing about n900: if all you have is weak car charger DON'T let it power itself off. Otherwise it will look like that: "see, we have some charger connected, let's power on! oops. battery is empty, shutting down. again. and again.". If you power it off manually, it will have time to charge good enough to survive boot sequence. | 20:57 |
| DocScrutinizer | and your whole rant of last 2h proves how much better it is | 20:57 |
| timeless_xchat | maemo doesn't use Qt | 20:57 |
| timeless_xchat | so please don't list tr() as the problem | 20:57 |
| timeless_xchat | and really, googling for tana_ whatever would work | 20:58 |

| janne123 | sry, i jusdt tested it again:) | 21:30 |
| janne123 | so why it doesn't work? | 21:30 |
| timeless_xchat | are you an admin? | 21:31 |
| ShadowJK | no idea | 21:31 |
| psycho_oreos | seems like you split the filename in half and the rest of the command | 21:31 |
| timeless_xchat | is it w64? | 21:31 |
| DocScrutinizer | your file is not located in current directory? | 21:31 |
| janne123 | damn | 21:31 |
| janne123 | i just knew problem | 21:31 |
| janne123 | testing... | 21:31 |
| timeless_xchat | hrm, | 21:31 |
| * timeless_xchat thinks docscrutinizer wins the tea leave reading contest | 21:32 | |
| DocScrutinizer | janne123: afaik even windows supports tab filename expansion now | 21:32 |
| timeless_xchat | nt4 supported it... | 21:32 |
| alterego | Has done for a while in "dos prompt" | 21:32 |
| *** rm_you has joined #maemo | 21:33 | |
| * timeless_xchat doesn't recall if 9x ever got that, it might not have | 21:33 | |
| janne123 | it works | 21:33 |
| janne123 | i forgot to move file to right directory | 21:33 |
| ShadowJK | You probably also want to flash both images, without the -R flag, as this one only replaces the OS and not your files and settings. | 21:33 |
| DocScrutinizer | janne123: enter >> flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_ << then pres tab key. It should expand the RX-51_ part to full filename. If it doesn't you need find actual location of file | 21:33 |
| timeless_xchat | yeah, docscrutinizer wins the tea leave reading contest | 21:33 |
| * psycho_oreos recalls there was a version of windows where you can enable tab completion for command prompt under tweakui | 21:33 | |
| timeless_xchat | psycho: nt4/5 had interesting defaults | 21:34 |
| *** SmilyOrg has joined #maemo | 21:34 | |
| janne123 | how u explain this, when i bought phone and old user used opera browser, i installed it with fast application manager and it remembered passwords etc | 21:34 |
| DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: good point | 21:34 |
| janne123 | should i free up rootfs or something? | 21:35 |
| psycho_oreos | timeless_xchat, hehe its been awhile since I last tampered with an old windows machine/setup | 21:35 |
| psycho_oreos | janne123, the passwords might not be saved under the flashed location, it might be stored under /home or the eMMC portion | 21:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | janne123: read the wiki page about flashing. FIRST flash eMMC/VANILLA, THEN flash COMBINED as you did above | 21:36 |
| timeless_xchat | psycho: from memory, the defaults were sane as of 5.1 | 21:36 |
| timeless_xchat | (xp) | 21:36 |
| *** janne123 has quit IRC | 21:36 | |
| ShadowJK | janne123, yeah that's what I'm saying, you want to flash both images. The one you just did, but not with the -R flag which causes reboot and is warned against everywhere, and then the emmc image (there's a "vanilla" in the filename) | 21:37 |
| DocScrutinizer | (s)he's gone? | 21:37 |
| psycho_oreos | timeless_xchat, heh so maybe win2000 may not have it then :) | 21:37 |
| DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: nope, eMMC *first* | 21:37 |
| DocScrutinizer | :-D | 21:38 |
| *** Smily has quit IRC | 21:38 | |
| timeless_xchat | psycho, it wasn't that it didn't support it | 21:38 |
| timeless_xchat | it was more a matter of defaults | 21:38 |
| timeless_xchat | i think ms was worried about breaking something | 21:38 |
| *** janne123 has joined #maemo | 21:38 | |
| timeless_xchat | so they left the default behavior | 21:38 |
| janne123 | oh, only network problem | 21:38 |
| timeless_xchat | the nice thing about cmd | 21:38 |
| psycho_oreos | then again win2000 had nt kernel | 21:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | janne123: wb | 21:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | janne123: read the wiki page about flashing. FIRST flash eMMC/VANILLA, THEN flash COMBINED as you did above | 21:39 |
| timeless_xchat | is that you have keys for generic completion and for directory completion | 21:39 |
| janne123 | i flashed succesfully so why i should read flashing quides anymore? | 21:40 |
| timeless_xchat | to the extent that my desktop pc runs anything, it runs w2k | 21:40 |
| timeless_xchat | janne123, because you did it wrong | 21:40 |
| timeless_xchat | there are two flash targets | 21:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | janne123: you came here and asked for help. If you don't like the advice you get, please rethink | 21:40 |
| timeless_xchat | and you generally want to flash both at once | 21:40 |
| *** _0x47 has quit IRC | 21:41 | |
| timeless_xchat | janne123, but as docscrutinizer notes, it's poor form to ask for help and then ignore it | 21:41 |
| janne123 | i wanted to reflash, is this wrong now?:) | 21:41 |
| timeless_xchat | go READ the wiki | 21:41 |
| timeless_xchat | don't do things | 21:41 |
| janne123 | okay:( | 21:41 |
| timeless_xchat | go READ the wiki | 21:41 |
| DocScrutinizer | you might have private data on eMMC 32GB storage, which isn't cleared by what you did | 21:41 |
| psycho_oreos | janne123, unless you want to leave the previous user's data intact you might want to also flash eMMC | 21:41 |
| ShadowJK | If you want to wipe the N900 before selling it, then you want to flash both images. You just reflashed the OS. Your old settings and files are still there, like how you described what happened with opera. | 21:42 |
| janne123 | oh i understand | 21:43 |

| DocScrutinizer | you *can* on second flashing | 22:06 |
| DocScrutinizer | you probably need to power down device manually after first flashing | 22:07 |
| janne_123 | second flashing? do u mean i shouldnt write -R now when i flash it? | 22:07 |
| ShadowJK | iirc you can do them after eachother while keeping usb connected | 22:07 |
| DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: that's what we all would expect, but which turned out not to work usually | 22:08 |

| DocScrutinizer | aiui wget can't do that? | 23:18 |
| DocScrutinizer | Arkenoi: which brand and model? | 23:19 |
| Arkenoi | there are "device descriptor read/64 error -71"s and "device not accepting address XX, error -71" before that. | 23:20 |
| Arkenoi | jetflash transcend 16Gb | 23:21 |
| DocScrutinizer | Arkenoi: yeah, this read/64 error -71(?) seen frequently. No idea what that means | 23:21 |
| DocScrutinizer | I'd have to dig it up in source | 23:22 |

| DocScrutinizer | meh, I think there's no sane way to implement a custom FIASKO img file download, with low effort (i.e. inside a script) | 23:32 |
