| alterego | I'm planning on release 0.9.4 within the next day or two. | 02:06 |
| biston | nothing other than default n900 partitions | 02:06 |
| biston | not even a mmc | 02:06 |
| MohammadAG | alterego, it just works, nicely | 02:06 |
| *** Aranel has quit IRC | 02:06 | |

| alterego | MohammadAG: the speed indicator on the track view? | 02:06 |
| MohammadAG | alterego, works fine, though I'm not sure if speed was the same | 02:07 |
| MohammadAG | but we were doing around 90kmph | 02:07 |

| jacekowski | biston: it happens when fs on emmc is fubar | 02:08 |
| jacekowski | alterego: that's a good thing | 02:08 |
| jacekowski | alterego: you have that view where it shows you where you were | 02:08 |
| jacekowski | alterego: what about colouring that line based on speed | 02:08 |
| alterego | jacekowski: yes | 02:08 |

| jacekowski | biston: no | 02:09 |
| jacekowski | biston: it's time to flash | 02:09 |
| MohammadAG | it's quite similar to Nokia's sport tracker for symbian | 02:09 |

| jacekowski | biston: well, there is an option that it's coming from rootfs | 02:10 |
| biston | any ways to check? | 02:10 |
| jacekowski | biston: but emmc is more likely | 02:10 |

| MohammadAG | well | 02:13 |
| MohammadAG | when you reflash the eMMc | 02:13 |

| MohammadAG | yes you do | 02:13 |
| MohammadAG | otherwise you lose locales, themes, icons | 02:14 |

| alterego | But that's v2 and I've not got to v1 yet ^.^ | 02:18 |
| alterego | Nope, make all the dialogs and menus custom Qml | 02:18 |

| *** Vanadis has quit IRC | 02:19 | |

| MohammadAG | it's garbage :p | 02:20 |

| Sazpaimon | i however have my doubts | 03:33 |
| BCMM | by hardware-compatible, you mean physically fits? | 03:33 |
| Sazpaimon | it might require a completely different controller | 03:33 |
| DocScrutinizer | Sazpaimon: have fun. I don't think this will pan out | 03:34 |
| cehteh | well .. and you need software which can handle it ... maemo5 certainly not | 03:34 |
| DocScrutinizer | or at least your N900 will look like steampunk then | 03:34 |
| BCMM | so it is just a resistive touchscreen of superior manufacture? | 03:34 |
| Sazpaimon | cehteh, writing modules would be the trivial part | 03:34 |
| DocScrutinizer | BCMM: nope, it is actually a modified principle | 03:35 |
| cehteh | and? .. what then? | 03:35 |
| BCMM | does that thing have any downsides? | 03:35 |
| cehteh | fix hildon up, microb, all other apps? | 03:35 |
| BCMM | it even claimed to be cheap and low-power... | 03:35 |
| cehteh | BCMM: costs 3 cents more :) | 03:35 |
| BCMM | hmm | 03:36 |
| cehteh | jk | 03:36 |
| BCMM | does it not work with sunglasses maybe? | 03:36 |
| BCMM | (that's a good subtle failure) | 03:36 |
| Sazpaimon | cehteh, then i believe it's a matter of porting xi2 gnome to maemo | 03:36 |
| cehteh | have fun :) | 03:36 |
| Sazpaimon | (xi2 iirc is the multitouch capable branch of gtk+) | 03:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | BCMM: downside: connection from panel to driver chip is a wide bus | 03:37 |
| DocScrutinizer | you need special driver chip | 03:37 |

| Sazpaimon | I'll have to look to see when a distributor starts selling these nerby | 03:38 |
| Sazpaimon | and if they wont physically work on an N900 i certainly have other applications for them | 03:39 |
| jonwil | Can someone suggest somewhere suitable for me to dump this code for the icd policy modules (somewhere I can then reference from a wiki article about said policy modules) | 03:39 |
| *** merlin1991 has quit IRC | 03:40 | |

| CableTwitch | Make sure you note that info down, yeah? XD | 05:09 |
| lcukn900 | robbie how is the capacitor holding up? | 05:10 |
| RobbieThe1st | I'm gonna have to test; I know it works for the 10s I tested it for. | 05:11 |
| RobbieThe1st | Lets try for one minute... Now that it's had a chance to charge and all(remember the charger is looking for a lithium-battery, so I don't know how fast it'll charge) | 05:12 |

| RobbieThe1st | DocScrutinizer: Thanks. | 05:25 |
| pupnik | well i knew some people in the netherlands info sec dept | 05:28 |
| pupnik | they had a product for securing their networks | 05:29 |
| DocScrutinizer | (ubifs) NFC. Seems it's unknown to maemo and even my desktop linux | 05:29 |
| RobbieThe1st | DocScrutinizer: Um...? What I know is that I have mkfs.ubifs and ubinize installed on my n900 through -some- package, but I can't figure out which one it was. | 05:32 |

| Guest61840 | Hello. I've not been in chat rooms much, so I'm not sure how to do things or act. Hope I don't torture anybody. Please be gentle with me. I just bought a used nokia n800 tablet. I don't know a lot about it. I am hoping to be able to download movies and tv shows to my pc and then transfer them to my tablet. Can anyone tell me the best and easiet ways to do that? | 06:21 |
| SpeedEvil | yes, you can. | 06:22 |
| SpeedEvil | in principle, though I've not used a n800 | 06:22 |
| SpeedEvil | - have you loolked at the wiki a bit? | 06:22 |
| *** melvin1991 has joined #maemo | 06:23 | |

| Guest61840 | How does this chat work? Are all those nicks listed on the right here now? Will I be able to see what everyone is talking about? That's a long list. | 06:26 |
| SpeedEvil | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Nokia_N800_Tablet_PDA also | 06:26 |
| SpeedEvil | There is nobody else talking tight now. | 06:26 |
| *** merlin_1991 has quit IRC | 06:26 | |
| SpeedEvil | it's a rather dead time at the moment - it tends to be more active evenings us and EU | 06:26 |
| RobbieThe1st | Yea | 06:27 |
| Guest61840 | So what's with all the names on the right. How do I know who's here? | 06:27 |
| RobbieThe1st | All those people have their computers on and their clients running. | 06:27 |
| RobbieThe1st | But the people themselves may not be at their computer, or looking elsewhere | 06:28 |
| Guest61840 | Sorry for my ignorance. What are clients? | 06:28 |
| wmarone | IRC clients, software similar to what you're using now | 06:29 |
| RobbieThe1st | A program that connects you to the IRC(chat) server. | 06:29 |
| RobbieThe1st | Yea | 06:29 |
| Guest61840 | So how do we know who is here, just ask? | 06:29 |
| wmarone | yes | 06:29 |
| wmarone | or just as a question | 06:30 |
| wmarone | ask* | 06:30 |
| RobbieThe1st | In addition, if you know who to talk to, some people may be around but not looking at the chat all the time - Saying someones name -may- get their attention | 06:30 |
| RobbieThe1st | For me, whenever someone says my name, I hear a "beep" noise. | 06:31 |
| SpeedEvil | People wait till they find a question they can answer, or something that annoys them, or until they have a funny picture of a cat, and post it. Though they'll usually just have the tab open so they can look back at what's happeed while they weren't looking - get messages, ... | 06:31 |
| Guest61840 | ok. I'm gonna leave this up but go check out those web sites you gave me. I hope someone is still here if I come back. Thank you SpeedEvil. | 06:32 |

| SpeedEvil | Guest61840: Good luck. | 06:36 |
| SpeedEvil | RobbieThe1st beep. | 06:36 |
| Guest61840 | ooooooh, My computer just beeped and then I clicked here and somebody said something to me. So ooooh I get a beep too. | 06:37 |
| CableTwitch | Seems I'm not the only deranged one this morning XD | 06:37 |
| SpeedEvil | Guest61840: Generally picking a more personal nickname will help people remember you if you come back. | 06:38 |
| Guest61840 | I was just at http://wiki.maemo.org/Nokia_N800. the search didn't like what I put in. The answers I got for video were too many and confusing. OK let me think of a nick. How do I get it assigned to me? | 06:39 |

| DocScrutinizer | ~ask | 06:46 |
| infobot | Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise, and on-topic. Don't ask if you can ask a question first. Don't ask if a person is there; just ask what you intended to ask them. Better questions more frequently yield better answers. We are all here voluntarily or against our will. | 06:46 |

| DocScrutinizer | ~question | 06:47 |
| infobot | hmm... question is If you have a question and want people to give useful answers, make sure you have read this first: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html | 06:47 |

| DocScrutinizer | yeah, nowadays trains will drive you | 06:55 |
| gretchen | How do I do that DocScrutinizer? Oh ok. I just type that /msg nickserv help register. Is a password then assigned to me? I have just started reading the page about questions. | 06:56 |

| CableTwitch | Drunk is a railway speciality. Its what happens when you have to wait ages to have a drink. | 06:57 |
| DocScrutinizer | gretchen: no, you need to follow the instructions that nickserv gave you when typing /msg nickserv help register | 06:57 |
| CableTwitch | I blame the D'n'A testing. Prior to that, no-one got drunk on duty. | 06:57 |

| SpeedEvil | I just realised my n900 has close to a dozen microprocessors in it. | 08:22 |
| *** murrayc has quit IRC | 08:22 | |
| SpeedEvil | Main ARM, DSP, bluetooth, wifi, SIM, SD card, emmc, wifi, bluetooth, LED controller, modem front and back end. | 08:23 |
| SpeedEvil | That's not even counting the GPU | 08:23 |
| SpeedEvil | Or some of the graphics processors that I suspect could be counted but I haven't read enough on them. | 08:23 |
| CableTwitch | I'm here, just about. | 08:24 |
| *** millenomi has joined #maemo | 08:28 | |
| chx | gretchen: ^ | 08:29 |
| gretchen | Hi SpeedEvil. Hi CableTwitch. I'm way out of league here. I found some information on n800 after doing a google search. Some is outdated like Internet Tablet School. I'm 53 years old. I've got fibromyalgia and therefore have fibrofog so I'm slow. I have no knowledge of programming, and haven't used comnputers much. Any recomendations for online beginning info? | 08:30 |
| DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: gmeter, ALS | 08:30 |
| SpeedEvil | gmeter is probably not stored program. | 08:30 |
| DocScrutinizer | it's a stored program, just you can't update it via I2C | 08:31 |
| DocScrutinizer | it seems you can destroy it though | 08:31 |
| DocScrutinizer | :-P | 08:31 |
| SpeedEvil | gretchen: What OS do you normally run on the desktop? | 08:31 |
| CableTwitch | Hmm, for the N800? I'm not too sure myself, I use the N900. Ask around a bit more in here in a few hours time or so, I'm pretty sure there will be more knowledgable people then myself who can answer any queries you have. | 08:32 |
| CableTwitch | SpeedEvil will know more than me, I'm fairly sure ;O) | 08:32 |
| SpeedEvil | I know almosrt nothing on the n800 | 08:32 |
| gretchen | SpeedEvil, do you mean on my pc or n800? | 08:32 |
| SpeedEvil | I saw an n700 once, that doesn't really cout though | 08:32 |
| SpeedEvil | gretchen: pc | 08:33 |
| *** crashanddie has quit IRC | 08:33 | |
| CableTwitch | Speed: Almost nothing is still more than absolutly nothing ;O) | 08:33 |
| gretchen | windows xp | 08:33 |
| DocScrutinizer | CableTwitch: use tab expansion! | 08:33 |
| DocScrutinizer | err, nick completion | 08:34 |
| CableTwitch | Forwhy? People here not like shortened nicks? | 08:34 |
| chx | CableTwitch: no, but their client won't highlight | 08:34 |
| DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil for example is more likely to have a highlight on foobarevil rather than speed | 08:34 |
| chx | CableTwitch: more convinient to have the full nick | 08:35 |
| CableTwitch | Bah, you're all awkward XD | 08:35 |
| chx | CableTwitch: bingo! | 08:35 |
| CableTwitch | Maybe its only me that has highlight on all variations I can think of. | 08:35 |
| chx | CableTwitch: we love the N900 what else can we be? | 08:35 |
| CableTwitch | chx: Touché | 08:35 |
| DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: don't you think it's funny to talk about usb cable when he's around? | 08:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | cble for usb is awesome :-P | 08:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | cable for usb is awesome :-P | 08:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | meh | 08:36 |
| gretchen | When and where are you guys? What time is it there? It's 10:33pm here. I'm on the pacific west coast of the U.S. I'm gonna go lie down soon. Where's a good place to ask newbie questions? What's a good time to check back? | 08:37 |
| DocScrutinizer | CableTwitch: that's what tab nick completion is meant for, what's so hard to use it? | 08:37 |
| DocScrutinizer | 7:37 AM | 08:38 |
| DocScrutinizer | good time here in this chan is maybe from now+2h to now+18h | 08:38 |
| SpeedEvil | gretchen: it tends to be quite active mid-afternoon for you | 08:39 |

| *** villev has joined #maemo | 08:40 | |
| *** ohwhyme has quit IRC | 08:40 | |
| CableTwitch | Doc: Well, for instance, I type Doc, and it completes to dockane | 08:40 |
| *** buntfalke has joined #maemo | 08:41 | |
| CableTwitch | And its easier typing 'Doc' ;O) | 08:41 |
| DocScrutinizer | pff, then type docs, or hit tab until it shows DocScrutinizer51 or DocScrutinizer | 08:41 |
| CableTwitch | That, and I'm not used to using nick completion yet. | 08:41 |
| gretchen | OK That's a 9 hour difference. OK thanks. I need to do some beginning research. Later. Bye. | 08:41 |
| CableTwitch | Its not part of my typing habits. | 08:41 |
| DocScrutinizer | gretchen: cya | 08:41 |
| CableTwitch | gretchen: Good luck, and see you around! | 08:42 |
| CableTwitch | I think I'm going to hit the sack too, its 6:41am, and I need to be up at 3. | 08:42 |
| *** gretchen has quit IRC | 08:42 | |
| DocScrutinizer | CableTwitch: my irc client even re-inserts the recently used nick, when tab'ed on empty line. That's for sure more convenient than typing doc: which doesn't help anything as it doesn't highlight here | 08:43 |
| DocScrutinizer | CableTwitch: see | 08:44 |
| DocScrutinizer | CableTwitch: what | 08:44 |
| DocScrutinizer | CableTwitch: i | 08:44 |
| DocScrutinizer | CableTwitch: mean | 08:44 |
| CableTwitch | Sure, I know. Mine also highlights on Cable, Twitch, CT and Bastard. | 08:45 |
| CableTwitch | Which does occasionally pick up random crap in conversation, but keeps me alert :O) | 08:45 |
| DocScrutinizer | sorry, no tab expansion on Bastard, so you'll have to live with me calling you CableTwitch | 08:45 |
| CableTwitch | Whatever works, I guess ;O) | 08:45 |
| *** FireFly|n900 has quit IRC | 08:47 | |
| DocScrutinizer | anyway, doc: is even ambiguous (as you noticed already), so you'll never again find me highlighting it | 08:48 |
| CableTwitch | DocScru, maybe? XD | 08:48 |
| CableTwitch | I'll try and remember to use tab complete when I'm here./ | 08:48 |
| CableTwitch | Anyhow, sleep for the useless sod now. Adios! | 08:50 |

| DocScrutinizer | VLC vulnerability: http://www.videolan.org/security/sa1007.html | 09:09 |
| DocScrutinizer | Summary : Buffer overflow in Real demuxer | 09:10 |
| *** drj_cro has joined #maemo | 09:10 | |
| DocScrutinizer | Solution | 09:11 |
| DocScrutinizer | VLC media player 1.1.6 addresses this issue. Patches for older versions are available from the official VLC source code repositories. | 09:11 |
| DocScrutinizer | </quote> it's unlikely but not impossible to see an exploit tailored for ARM out in the wild | 09:12 |
| SpeedEvil | Does the stock stack use VLC? | 09:13 |
| DocScrutinizer | npe | 09:13 |
| DocScrutinizer | not afaik | 09:13 |
| DocScrutinizer | so the situation isn't as nasty as it's been (and still is?) with flash-plugin | 09:14 |
| *** ZogG has quit IRC | 09:15 | |
| *** ZogG has joined #maemo | 09:15 | |
| DocScrutinizer | and unlike flash we got source for VLC | 09:16 |
| *** ftrvxmtrx has joined #maemo | 09:17 | |
| DocScrutinizer | so little chances to bash Nokia all over the place, for not fixing a vulnerability that's documented and not fixable by community ;-) | 09:17 |
| ieatlint | yeah, the stock uses gstreamer, and i don't believe even supports real | 09:18 |
| DocScrutinizer | I still like to find a website that spreads an evil flash-virus that implements keylogger and whatnot on my N900, then sue Nokia for the damage done and get compensation. Well, probably I have to code that maemo-flash-virus by myself :-) | 09:19 |
| *** dos11 has joined #maemo | 09:19 | |
| fellu | hmm o.O | 09:20 |
| *** murrayc has joined #maemo | 09:20 | |
| *** chigga has quit IRC | 09:21 | |
| ieatlint | try writing something that just changes the root password, configures sshd to auto-start (assuming installed) | 09:21 |
| ieatlint | and then of course notify you somehow | 09:21 |
| DocScrutinizer | :-D | 09:21 |
| ieatlint | would be simpler to write methinks | 09:22 |
| DocScrutinizer | wait, I have a script for that collecting dust on some dark sectors of my HDD | 09:22 |
| ieatlint | and you could then login and do whatever you wanted... keylogger, harvest imsi, dial non-free phone numbers | 09:22 |
| DocScrutinizer | yep | 09:23 |
| *** FIQ has quit IRC | 09:23 | |
| DocScrutinizer | but that's a bit harder to link to flash, in a provable way sufficient for a case at court | 09:24 |
| DocScrutinizer | so my chances to sue Nokia for compensation for that $500.000 somebody booked off my bank account are a bit smaller | 09:25 |
| ruskie | erm??? | 09:25 |
| * ieatlint wishes he had $500k in a bank account to be stolen | 09:26 | |
| DocScrutinizer | yeah, I started to feel that's a point in my idea not well thought | 09:26 |
| *** slonopotamus has joined #maemo | 09:28 | |
| DocScrutinizer | well, the virus could call a few 0900-LICK-MY-BOOTS numbers, and so my fiancee gave me a ticket to run and refused to marry me. I guess that's worth some compensation for damage done to my life | 09:29 |
| ieatlint | there you go | 09:30 |
| ieatlint | won't work for me, but i can come up with something else | 09:30 |
| *** lopz has quit IRC | 09:30 | |
| *** lopz has joined #maemo | 09:30 | |
| *** lcukn900 has quit IRC | 09:31 | |
| DocScrutinizer | yeah, coming up with material or immaterial damage done by a virus that sneaked in cause Nokia didn't care about the known vulnerability, that's really easy | 09:32 |
| *** dotblank has quit IRC | 09:32 | |
| ieatlint | although, the problem with that plan, is that your fiancee would actually have to leave you | 09:32 |
| DocScrutinizer | that's no problem, I just need to find one first :-P | 09:33 |
| ieatlint | haha | 09:33 |
| ieatlint | that's not too hard | 09:33 |
| DocScrutinizer | :nod: | 09:34 |
| ieatlint | it's 8:30am there? just go to the bar, and ask any woman there... she should be desperate enough | 09:34 |
| DocScrutinizer | hehehe | 09:34 |
| DocScrutinizer | here, at 8:30am, even the bars are desperate | 09:35 |
| DocScrutinizer | I.E. closed | 09:35 |
| ieatlint | or craigslist: "need fiancée for scam" | 09:35 |
| trumee | DocScrutinizer, how do you get xchat nick recompletion. some xchat setting? | 09:36 |
| ieatlint | clearly you don't live in a place with enough alcoholics... 95% of bars are closed here at 8:30am, but that still leaves quite a few open | 09:36 |
| ieatlint | trumee: xchat defaults to tab-completion | 09:36 |
| DocScrutinizer | well, I could reduce my estimated value of damage by 75%, if Nokia is going to release a fixed flash-plugin for maemo | 09:36 |
| ieatlint | see the "interface-> input box" settings | 09:37 |

| DocScrutinizer | trumee: err, I got shift-space, it's set up in keybindings. Dunno if it's in default as shipped with xchat now | 09:37 |
| trumee | DocScrutinizer, i thought you meant some sort of autocompletion | 09:38 |
| ieatlint | ah | 09:38 |
| DocScrutinizer | xchat is painfully missing the tab-at-start-of-line repeating last nick | 09:39 |
| trumee | [06:44] <DocScrutinizer> CableTwitch: my irc client even re-inserts the recently used nick, when tab'ed on empty line. That's for sure more convenient than typing doc: which doesn't help anything as it doesn't highlight here | 09:39 |
| trumee | DocScrutinizer, what setting is that? | 09:39 |
| DocScrutinizer | trumee: you're free to ctcp version me | 09:39 |
| ieatlint | trumee: see settings i referenced | 09:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | I'm using Konversation | 09:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | on my PC | 09:40 |
| trumee | ieatlint, thanks | 09:40 |

| RobbieThe1st | BTW, does anyone know a good person to talk to about PyQT and tasktray icons? | 10:58 |
| jonwil | The second is that you shouldn't use the touchscreen just after eating some KFC | 10:58 |

| magnus_ | lets say im running a small app that uses the GPS and sends my current position every minute or so over the 3G connection | 12:04 |
| magnus_ | no other apps are active | 12:04 |
| magnus_ | for how long do you think the n900 will survive? | 12:04 |
| RST38h | 8-12hours | 12:05 |
| achipa | more, especially if he does it the right way - i.e. switch off the GPS in those pauses | 12:05 |
| achipa | plus the vast array of underclock/undervolting :) | 12:06 |
| achipa | but I guess the real question is the 'everyday phone' part, that might be the dominant battery sucker | 12:07 |

| *** tackat has joined #maemo | 12:10 | |
| magnus_ | ok, 8-12 hours sounds nice | 12:10 |
| magnus_ | is it really viable to turn off the gps in between samples if samplerate is 1 / minute? won't it draw quite a lot power as it tries to fix satellites during init? | 12:11 |
| magnus_ | achipa, does the n900 perform automatic frequency scaling? like using the on-demand cpufreq governor on linux? | 12:12 |
| *** manaru has quit IRC | 12:12 | |
| achipa | magnus_: it does, in fact it is using EXACTLY that :) | 12:12 |
| magnus_ | excellent | 12:12 |
| *** FIQ|n900 has quit IRC | 12:13 | |
| achipa | IIUC gps off is okay as those are hot starts so the TTF will be low | 12:13 |
| achipa | (i.e. not having to power the GPS one minute if yout don't really read from it is more saving than the extra draw of a new fix IIRC) | 12:14 |
| *** asj_ has joined #maemo | 12:14 | |
| magnus_ | ok | 12:14 |
| achipa | if you do want to store the reads and just send them at once is of course a different story | 12:15 |
| jacekowski | achipa: buehe | 12:15 |
| magnus_ | i used to have the n810, it had a _horrible_ gps, i was almost never able to get a fix with it. has this changed on n900? | 12:15 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: 5h at most | 12:15 |
| magnus_ | jacekowski, really? thats a lot different from 8-12 hours =) | 12:15 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: underfrequency makes battery life worse than nominal and makes phone unstable | 12:15 |

| *** GNUtoo|laptop has joined #maemo | 12:16 | |

| achipa | oh, so maps uses no CPU and the screen is powering itself ? | 12:16 |
| achipa | :) | 12:16 |
| magnus_ | so the modem will be the major energy consumer here? | 12:16 |
| *** Sicelo has quit IRC | 12:16 | |
| jacekowski | modem and gps | 12:17 |
| jacekowski | then cpu | 12:17 |
| achipa | magnus_: you might be better off by using 2G since you're using it as a phone anyway. | 12:17 |
| jacekowski | 2g only isn't going to help a lot | 12:17 |
| jacekowski | but hmm, hour more maybe | 12:18 |
| achipa | an hour here, an hour there... 12h ! :D | 12:18 |
| magnus_ | i have an old non-smart phone now, i connect to a remote GPS over bluetooth, and have it do the exact same (send gps coords every 1 minute over 3G connection). it can last for at least 4 hours... but in this case, the gps is powered from its own battery. but i have 900 mAh battery in my phone and ~400 mAh in GPS. should be approx same as n900 total capacity | 12:18 |
| *** Sicelo has joined #maemo | 12:18 | |
| MohammadAG | anyone got UI suggestions for h-e-n? http://i55.tinypic.com/28i259z.jpg | 12:18 |
| achipa | magnus_: the GPS in the phone has more overhead, i.e. not being handled by some super-small embedded controller, but going for processing to the 'big' CPU | 12:19 |
| jacekowski | achipa: gps is handled by rapuyama | 12:19 |
| magnus_ | really? i thought they just emitted NMEA strings to the main cpu .. which isn't that heavy to parse (my non-smart phone does it in Java app) | 12:20 |
| RobbieThe1st | MohammadAG: Couldn't we set the settings we want(speed etc) first, then press "Connect" and have it set those all at once? | 12:20 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: nope | 12:20 |
| MohammadAG | RobbieThe1st, isn't that way you do :P | 12:20 |
| MohammadAG | what* | 12:20 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: rapuyama communicates over phonet with main cpu with some nokia proprtiary protocol | 12:20 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: and then thing happen | 12:20 |
| jacekowski | can somebody translate something for me | 12:21 |
| jacekowski | The Airview9 is $39 USD. Shipping UPS Worldwide Expedited is $90.25. We accept wire transfers ($35 fee) or PayPal for international orders. | 12:21 |
| RobbieThe1st | MohammadAG: Possibly also having a listbox with any found USB devices so you know if it's connected? | 12:21 |
| *** manaru has joined #maemo | 12:21 | |
| magnus_ | really? they have a proprietary gps protocol? .. does this mean i can't write my own gps app? | 12:21 |
| jacekowski | does it mean it will cost me $39+$90 | 12:21 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: you can | 12:21 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: there are location libraries | 12:21 |
| MohammadAG | jacekowski, yes, it means shipping > price | 12:21 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: that implement that protocol | 12:21 |
| jacekowski | MohammadAG: but i'm not sure if it's $129 in total to pay or "just" $90 | 12:22 |
| MohammadAG | 130 | 12:23 |
| *** murrayc_ has joined #maemo | 12:23 | |
| jacekowski | then 20% import VAT on top of that | 12:23 |
| magnus_ | jacekowski, is it not possible to lower the 60s timeout on the modem? so it goes to sleep right after it is not used. it seems weird to me. again, on my current phone, i check my email once every 5 minutes and it can survive for days.. it must mean that modem is not power all the time | 12:23 |
| jacekowski | it'll be cheaper to buy alternative here in uk | 12:23 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: nope | 12:23 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: it takes couple seconds to estabilish connections | 12:24 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: so it's just that | 12:24 |
| jacekowski | you could force disconnection | 12:24 |
| magnus_ | ok, but a couple seconds is still << 60s | 12:24 |
| jacekowski | but modem would stay active | 12:24 |

| *** blitz00 has quit IRC | 12:32 | |
| magnus_ | jacekowski, what about if I set it to 2G? i can still send data over GPRS since its really tiny amounts, would that help battery life? | 12:36 |

| *** b0unc3 has quit IRC | 12:47 | |
| OkropNick | magnus_: using only 2G you can send data over GPRS but both connedctions (voice + dana) cannot be established. voice or data. during data transfer incoming call will disconnect data transfer | 12:47 |
| kerio | it would indeed save battery life | 12:49 |
| magnus_ | yeah, gprs is circuit switched, right? im not so picky about losing data (or delaying data) if a call comes in.. i guess the linux tcp stack will deal with that once the call is over and it starts to retransmit lost packets | 12:51 |
| magnus_ | kerio, happen to have any numbers on that? | 12:51 |
| kerio | less shit sent | 12:51 |
| kerio | equals less power needed to send shit | 12:51 |
| magnus_ | isn't it also at a lower frequency? 3g uses 5Ghz, doesnt it? | 12:52 |
| jonwil | 3G doesnt use 5Ghz | 12:52 |
| jonwil | 3G uses different frequencies depending on carrier | 12:52 |
| jonwil | but 5Ghz is not one of them AFAIK | 12:52 |
| jonwil | My carrier uses 900MHz and 1200MHz | 12:52 |
| magnus_ | so no frequency diff for 3g? i thought that was the whole reason there are like 10x more 3g antennas in my neigbourhood than 2g | 12:53 |
| jonwil | wait that's 2100MHz | 12:53 |
| jonwil | you can carry more data over 3G but the range is less | 12:53 |
| jonwil | hence why you need more towers | 12:53 |
| jonwil | it also depends on exactly which frequencies the carrier is using | 12:53 |
| jonwil | e.g. my carrier uses 900M | 12:53 |
| jonwil | 900MHz and 1800MHz for 2G | 12:53 |
| jonwil | but 900 and 2100 for 3G | 12:54 |
| *** ptlo has joined #maemo | 12:54 | |
| magnus_ | more data with less range sounds an awful lot like a higher frequency.. but perhaps the modulation is more efficient too | 12:54 |
| *** murrayc has joined #maemo | 12:55 | |
| jonwil | which carrier are you with? | 12:55 |
| jonwil | and which country? | 12:55 |
| magnus_ | tele2 in sweden | 12:55 |
| Trewas | 900mhz 3g is quite new and it indeed has longer range the 2.1ghz frequencies which has been used since the beginning of 3g | 12:56 |
| jonwil | Per google and http://www.prepaidgsm.net/en/sweden.html its using 900 and 1800 for 2G | 12:56 |
| jonwil | and 2100 for 3G | 12:56 |
| jonwil | so yes 3G is higher frequency in your case | 12:57 |
| *** lizardo has joined #maemo | 12:57 | |
| magnus_ | ok. how does 3g work over 900 MHz then? it should not be able to keep up with the transfer speeds vs 2100 MHz, right? | 12:57 |
| magnus_ | but really, i'd prefer to run 3g over 900 Mhz, it should be a lot more power efficient | 12:58 |
| *** Sargun has quit IRC | 13:03 | |
| Trewas | magnus_: at least here (.fi) the operators build either 2.1ghz or 900mhz network, not both, in some area, 900mhz is used in less populated areas because of larger cell size (and lower capacity) | 13:03 |
| jacekowski | magnus_: 100MBit ethernet works on 100MHz | 13:04 |
| magnus_ | i see | 13:04 |
| jacekowski | 3g is wideband | 13:05 |
| magnus_ | but i think when each client expects high speed (up to 30+ mbit/s), the cell should have more than 100 Mbit capacity | 13:05 |
| jacekowski | yeah that's a keyword | 13:05 |
| jacekowski | UP TO | 13:05 |
| jacekowski | that's one | 13:05 |
| jacekowski | and 3g is wideband | 13:06 |
| jacekowski | ADSL work on 25kHz to 1100kHz | 13:06 |
| jacekowski | so up to 1MHz | 13:06 |
| jacekowski | and can push 24Mbits | 13:07 |
| *** Sickki has quit IRC | 13:07 | |
| jacekowski | because it's using multiple 4kHz channels | 13:07 |
| Trewas | by the way, is it even possible to see with n900 which 3g or 2g frequency is used? | 13:08 |
| jacekowski | hardware can do it | 13:08 |
| jacekowski | but i'm pretty sure there is no software for it | 13:08 |
| Trewas | obviously hardware knows, but I wondered if that info is available in sysfs etc | 13:08 |
| jacekowski | nope | 13:09 |
| jacekowski | it's avaliable on phonet probably | 13:09 |
| chx | given the secrecy surrounding baseband | 13:09 |
| chx | i'd be shocked | 13:09 |
| jacekowski | well, thing is that competitors probably already opened and reversed rapuyama couple times | 13:10 |

| alterego | BCMM: macro has auto focus | 13:15 |
| BCMM | ah ok | 13:15 |
| alterego | But it only focuses around the short distances | 13:16 |
| *** Sickki has joined #maemo | 13:16 | |

| alterego | No, no feature | 13:16 |
| BCMM | thanks | 13:16 |
| ieatlint | magnus_: one more comment about the 2100 vs 900 thing... 900mhz does have a longer transmission range (and building penetration), however the 900mhz 3g bandwidth is 35mhz for upload/download (each) and the 2100mhz bandwidth is 60mhz each | 13:17 |
| ieatlint | this is largely due to the more valuable lower frequencies having been assigned long before 3g existed | 13:18 |
| *** vanadis has joined #maemo | 13:20 | |
| *** Sickki has quit IRC | 13:20 | |
| ieatlint | so yeah, 2100mhz cell towers have a larger capacity for users... the 900mhz range may not even be available for 3g in your country | 13:21 |
| ieatlint | i believe (but am not sure) it clashes with 2g 900mhz gsm usage | 13:21 |

| BCMM | Jarock: anything in dmesg? | 14:51 |
| BCMM | also, does it fail even if you're right next to the router? | 14:51 |
| BCMM | also, you could try turning off power-saving in case it's got a broken implementation, but that usually presents as random disconnection, not failure to connect in the first place | 14:52 |

| alterego | psycho_oreos: that'd work :) | 15:32 |
| psycho_oreos | it may use the default route's IP as DNS | 15:33 |
| alterego | I'm actually not sure of this, but I use my own DNS through a socks 5 ssh proxy connection | 15:33 |
| psycho_oreos | yeah but then one needs to filter all the un-necessary junk out | 15:33 |
| alterego | psycho_oreos: no again :) | 15:33 |
| alterego | (it doesn't use gateway) | 15:34 |
| psycho_oreos | alterego, oh well I'm clueless, surely the entries are in somewhere | 15:34 |
| alterego | Unless that's what the dhcp server says to use | 15:34 |
| *** _trine has quit IRC | 15:34 | |

| jonwil | unless FM-radio app broke something... | 17:28 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: what's with kbd backlight? | 17:28 |
| jonwil | kbd backlight does light up | 17:28 |

| DocScrutinizer | echo 100 >/sys/class/leds/lp5523:r/brightness | 17:29 |
| jonwil | when I activate the "screen on" switch, I get kbd backlight | 17:29 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: that's same chip. So it's definitely mce | 17:29 |
| DocScrutinizer | esp if above cmd gives red led | 17:29 |
| ShadowJK | oh, it was opera | 17:29 |

| jarock | DTIM Period: 3 | 17:30 |
| ShadowJK | is that ms or seconds? | 17:31 |
| psycho_oreos | jonwil, actually no correction, on mine it shows up red light, but that's most likely for charging, should be orange/amber by default | 17:31 |
| ShadowJK | oh wait | 17:31 |
| DocScrutinizer | echo 2 >/sys/class/leds/lp5523\:r/led_current | 17:31 |

| * jonwil hopes it isnt a hardware fault | 17:33 | |
| *** schasch has joined #maemo | 17:33 | |
| DocScrutinizer | power-kernel? | 17:33 |
| jonwil | stock kernel | 17:33 |
| ShadowJK | ah yeah, I have that as 50 or 100ms. That's a nice router you have, you can precisely set the powersaving vs lag balance yourself :-) | 17:33 |
| DocScrutinizer | shut down. plug in charger. watch led for very short flash of amber | 17:33 |
| *** Necc has joined #maemo | 17:34 | |
| jarock | ShadowJK: so how do I get high ping off about 2 seconds | 17:34 |
| jonwil | ok, what that did is produced Nokia icon on display with mo backlight plus a vibrate of the vibrator. No LED at all | 17:35 |
| jonwil | Then it displayed some dots in the middle of the screen | 17:35 |
| jonwil | and then nothing | 17:35 |
| * DocScrutinizer scratches head | 17:35 | |
| ShadowJK | jarock, you wwant 2 second pings? | 17:35 |
| DocScrutinizer | maybe your hw has a defect | 17:35 |
| *** felipec has joined #maemo | 17:35 | |
| jonwil | it worked before | 17:35 |
| jonwil | so its a real WTF | 17:36 |
| psycho_oreos | brand new or second hand n900? | 17:36 |
| jonwil | brand new | 17:36 |
| psycho_oreos | hmm | 17:36 |
| *** jevin has joined #maemo | 17:36 | |
| DocScrutinizer | FPC cable defect may start that way | 17:36 |
| jarock | no, I would like low pingrate | 17:36 |
| jonwil | so is there anything else I can try or will I have to deal with warranty? | 17:37 |
| *** felipec has joined #maemo | 17:37 | |
| jonwil | although in the grand scheme of things LED is not important | 17:38 |
| jonwil | its just annoying that it wont work | 17:38 |
| DocScrutinizer | sorry I'm rather out of ideas. You can try deplete batery *completely* then check emergency charge steady amber light. It's a different chip, just same cable and LED | 17:38 |
| *** felipec has quit IRC | 17:38 | |
| psycho_oreos | I probably install LED Patterns and restore the functionality or test the various options, failing to work maybe poke around in rd-mode (which I highly doubt it will fix) | 17:38 |
| *** andrenarchy has joined #maemo | 17:40 | |
| jonwil | the fact that talking to the /sys items doesnt help is a bad sign IMO | 17:40 |
| *** chx has joined #maemo | 17:40 | |
| jonwil | since I can talk to the /sys items for the keyboard LEDs and make them change | 17:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: I could talk you thru a sequence of i2cset cmds to enable charger steady amber (bq24150 OTG pin), but alas I have no time for that right now | 17:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK might help | 17:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: indeed | 17:41 |
| DocScrutinizer | and missing jellow flash on charger plugin is an even worse sign, well maybe not. It suggests cable or LED broken. I suspect cable | 17:42 |
| ShadowJK | jarock, I'd set beacon interval to 100 | 17:42 |
| ShadowJK | I get short yellow flash even when not in emergency mode | 17:43 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | I get yellow when battery is not handled | 17:43 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: stop bme, wait 30s | 17:43 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | with no BME etc... | 17:43 |
| *** jarock has quit IRC | 17:43 | |
| jonwil | ok, killed bme | 17:43 |
| jonwil | no change | 17:44 |
| jonwil | no LED | 17:44 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: with charger plugged in | 17:44 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | and wait a bit | 17:44 |

| jonwil | ok, bme is stopped | 17:44 |
| *** tjuxx has left #maemo | 17:44 | |

| DocScrutinizer | I suspect cable | 17:46 |
| DocScrutinizer | --->waranty repair, ASAP | 17:47 |
| jonwil | connected to other cable (i.e. PC rather than charger) and no change to LED state | 17:47 |
| jonwil | no LED | 17:47 |
| *** andrenarchy has left #maemo | 17:47 | |
| jonwil | charger icon still flashing | 17:47 |
| jonwil | but no LED | 17:47 |

| *** svillar has joined #maemo | 17:47 | |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: you need to have bme started, wallcharger Nokia plugged, then stop bme, wait 30s | 17:47 |
| DocScrutinizer | other sequences are untested and unclear result | 17:48 |
| jonwil | ok, trying that exact scequence now | 17:48 |
| jonwil | wallcharger plugged in | 17:48 |
| jonwil | stop bme | 17:48 |
| DocScrutinizer | start bme | 17:48 |

| jonwil | battery charge icon still flashing | 17:48 |
| *** felipec has joined #maemo | 17:49 | |
| DocScrutinizer | check icon is signalling charging | 17:49 |
| DocScrutinizer | stop bme | 17:49 |
| jonwil | yes I had bme plugged in when stopping BME | 17:49 |
| jonwil | I mean charger | 17:49 |
| jonwil | so charger was plugged in, icon was flashing | 17:49 |
| jonwil | I stopped bme | 17:49 |
| DocScrutinizer | --->waranty repair, ASAP | 17:49 |
| jonwil | ok, so it sounds like a busted LED? | 17:49 |
| DocScrutinizer | cable | 17:49 |
| DocScrutinizer | which is no difference, they need to change both anyway | 17:50 |
| jonwil | cable as in wallcharger or cable as in something internal to the phone? | 17:50 |
| DocScrutinizer | internal FPC from kbd to screen | 17:51 |
| * GNUtoo|laptop is able to blinks leds in SHR easily | 17:51 | |
| GNUtoo|laptop | as there are no BME etc.... | 17:51 |
| DocScrutinizer | GNUtoo|laptop: meh | 17:52 |
| DocScrutinizer | not with a broken cable | 17:52 |

| DocScrutinizer | some cables are crap | 18:01 |
| jonwil | ok | 18:01 |
| *** WellMux_ has quit IRC | 18:01 | |
| DocScrutinizer | so unless you poked a credit card up between kbd and screen... :-) | 18:01 |
| jonwil | I certainly didnt do that intentionally | 18:02 |
| jonwil | but my phone has been in my bag along with some business cards and crap | 18:02 |
| jonwil | so it could have happened without me noticing it | 18:02 |
| * jonwil is glad he went with the store offering genuine Australian stock with a genuine Australian warranty | 18:03 | |
| DocScrutinizer | rather unlikely. even if the card finds in, it won't come out without help ;-D | 18:03 |
| jonwil | regardless of what happened, I just tell Nokia that my LED wont work and could they please fix it | 18:03 |
| DocScrutinizer | exactly | 18:03 |
| DocScrutinizer | keep your stylus and maybe battery. chances are you get a new one ;-) | 18:04 |
| jonwil | I am definatly glad I didnt pick the options from the stores that appear to be grey-market importing the phone and supply only their warranty and not the Nokia one | 18:05 |

| DocScrutinizer | so best is you give it to the shop and ask them to sign a paper confirming scratch free screen | 18:08 |
| DocScrutinizer | jonwil: you may want to test front cam | 18:09 |
| DocScrutinizer | might have stopped working as well | 18:09 |
| jonwil | how can I test front cam? | 18:10 |
| DocScrutinizer | mirror | 18:10 |

| SpeedEvil | As I understand it, no. | 18:32 |
| *** WellMux has joined #maemo | 18:32 | |
| SpeedEvil | You need to redownload them, it saves lists of what you've installed. | 18:32 |
| SpeedEvil | But if the repo goes away, you're screwed | 18:32 |
| jonwil | well I only downloaded from the device default repos | 18:32 |
| jonwil | i.e. extras | 18:32 |
| jonwil | so it should be fine | 18:32 |
| alterego | does nitdroid have bme/power management? | 18:32 |
| * jonwil hopes Nokia doesn't find some excuse to count this fault as a "non warranty fault" and charge me for it | 18:33 | |
| jonwil | Although if its happened before, its likely that it will be in their database as a "known issue" | 18:33 |
| jonwil | and therefore something they cover for warranty | 18:34 |
| merlin1991 | jonwil, the backup app saves a list of the installed apps, and when you play the backup back in you can install them all from ham with 1 button | 18:34 |
| jonwil | ok, thats great | 18:34 |
| jonwil | what about stuff I installed from the ovi store | 18:34 |
| jonwil | or is that differnt? | 18:34 |
| jonwil | different? | 18:34 |
| jonwil | although the only thing I installed from ovi store was Solitare | 18:35 |
| jonwil | and that was free | 18:35 |
| alterego | gasss bawlz! | 18:35 |
| alterego | I like the angle meter app too | 18:35 |
| merlin1991 | I never installed stuff from the ovi store, so I don' know about that | 18:36 |
| jonwil | I think I will grab (via SFTP/SSH) a copy of anything on my device that looks possibly relavent just in case I find that something didnt backup properly and I lost my settings for some app (that way I can copy over the settings file from my dump) | 18:36 |

| *** achipa has quit IRC | 18:40 | |
| alterego | jonwil: The N900 has been rock solid for me. | 18:40 |
| wmarone | same, mine's over a year old | 18:41 |
| jonwil | well I am referring to the reports of this screen cable issue and also the USB port problem | 18:41 |
| nidO | all hardware starting to be less reliable because your moving cable seems to have died? | 18:41 |
| alterego | Mine is a year old 14th next month | 18:41 |
| alterego | Well, I'm quite a heavy handed user, and I'm plugging/unplugging my device a lot more than the average | 18:42 |
| alterego | I have no problem. | 18:42 |
| jonwil | what I meant was whether these kind of problems are showing up more on the N900 than other Nokia hardware or whether they are happening to other Nokia hw (n95 e.g. | 18:42 |
| *** arp_ has joined #maemo | 18:42 | |
| nidO | well not much hardware gets screen cable problems, for obvious reasons. | 18:42 |
| alterego | My N95 still works | 18:42 |
| alterego | I think Nokia build quality is as good as it gets tbh | 18:43 |
| nidO | and nokia acknowledged a problem with some of the very early manufactured n900's, and sorted it | 18:43 |
| alterego | (in general) | 18:43 |
| jonwil | well my Motorola Z6 slider is rock solid | 18:43 |
| jonwil | and that got bashed about a lot | 18:43 |
| nidO | beyond that, its most likely generally overly heavy handed users breaking them and happening to have the excuse of some having weak ports in the past | 18:43 |
| jonwil | That was a vertical slider with a dial pad vs the qwerty slider of the N900 though | 18:43 |
| jonwil | plus it only had the screen and a top keypad, no front camera or touch or anything | 18:44 |
| SpeedEvil | An annoying hardware issue I'm having on mine is that the lock button sticky-out-blob is wearing off | 18:45 |
| SpeedEvil | So it's harder to unlock | 18:45 |
| nidO | cut your nails? :p | 18:45 |
| wmarone | SpeedEvil: wow, you managed to wear that off? I've at most scraped the paint off... | 18:46 |
| * jonwil hopes they dont take too long to fix his N900, he is using it as his only telephone and doesn't have a landline anymore | 18:47 | |
| trip0 | they are normally pretty quick at fixing/replacing | 18:47 |
| trip0 | took mine less than 10 days | 18:48 |
| SpeedEvil | wmarone: wear off - no. | 18:48 |
| RST38bis | SpeedEvil: get longer nails :) | 18:48 |
| SpeedEvil | wmarone: wear down a bit so it's harder to catch with a nail - yes | 18:48 |
| jonwil | I think the best thing to do is to call up Nokia Care first thing tomorrow, tell them whats wrong (LED failing to work) and ask them about bringing it into the Nokia Care center directly | 18:49 |
| RST38bis | SpeedEvil: and go for the edge of the slider rather than the blob | 18:49 |
| SpeedEvil | RST38: yeah | 18:49 |

| kodomo_ | hi folks... got two questions related to h-e-n which I find it hard to find the answer in forums due to a lot of clutter w.r.t. the N900 not supporting host mode - maybe someone around here knows the answers :) : | 18:55 |
| kodomo_ | 1) given a F2F adaptor, a Y-cable (e.g. as supplied with some external hard drives), and a peripheral... can the N900 charge, while the peripheral is used (assuming that I don't enable VBUS 5V)? | 18:56 |
| kerio | DocScrutinizer: *h-e-n poke* | 18:56 |
| *** mcepl has joined #maemo | 18:57 | |
| kodomo_ | 2) is there support for non-storage devices available/planned? (I'm especially thinking of a usb-to-vga adaptor - even though I presume a lot of stuff - like xrandr - is yet missing to use it even if the module operates it :) ) | 18:57 |
| kodomo_ | kerio: thx - you get a lot of dumb h-e-n questions these days? ;) | 18:58 |
| mcepl | what do you guys know about ActiveSync and merged contacts on N900? I have an issue with syncing N900 to Zarafa (http://forums.zarafa.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6037) ... is it an issue of N900? If yes, is there a bug for it? | 18:58 |
| SpeedEvil | kodomo_: A USB VGA adaptor has been gotten woreking. I have no other knowledge | 18:58 |
| kodomo_ | SpeedEvil: cool :D will keep looking for that one, then :) (good to know it's not futile, at least :P ) | 19:00 |

| *** Funnyface has joined #maemo | 19:27 | |

| jonwil | whats the right way to reformat the SD card? | 19:28 |

| jonwil | Any calls I get will be calls from people I want to talk to | 19:49 |
| *** jimmy1980 has joined #maemo | 19:49 | |

| chx | really, does anyone important ever call you? | 19:50 |
| chx | there's email :) | 19:50 |
| jonwil | yes they do, I get calls from family and calls from things related to possible new jobs. | 19:51 |
| jonwil | and I need to make calls too, e.g. calls to family | 19:51 |
| jonwil | As for buying another phone, even the cheapest of the cheap is still expensive here (at least the ones that would work with my carrier and SIM) | 19:52 |

| *** slonopotamus has quit IRC | 19:53 | |
| jonwil | or they may say "come back in a few hours and we will know if the fix can be done on the spot or if it will require us to keep the phone for a few days" | 19:53 |

| *** Flipi|BNC is now known as Flipi | 19:54 | |

| *** ab has quit IRC | 19:55 | |
| nidO | because they dont happen to have labs, parts, and expensive techs in high street stores | 19:55 |
| jonwil | well this isnt a high-street store, this seems to be an actual service center | 19:56 |
| nidO | on the spot fixes tend to happen for things like devices needing a reflash, if you're lucky, and not much else | 19:56 |
| jacekowski | thing is | 19:56 |
| jacekowski | that nobody will diagnose a phone in 5 minutes | 19:56 |

| jonwil | its not but I dont see why Nokia would replace the motherboard if doing so is not required to fix the problem | 19:59 |
| chx | um you certainly back your data up before sending it away | 19:59 |
| alterego | If they replace the main board they replace emmc and root filesystems. | 19:59 |
| jonwil | why replace an expensive motherboard when a cheap screen cable is all that has to be replaced | 19:59 |
| alterego | chx: what if you can't :P | 19:59 |

| al_0 | Hi folks, just a quick question. In your experience is it difficult to port a maemo software to a desktop distro like fedora or ubuntu? I'm asking this because I'm interested in a cool piece of python sw, www2sms, but it depends on something like pymaemo-optify | 20:48 |

| hallyn | RST38h: thx | 20:49 |
| *** tg has quit IRC | 20:49 | |
| RST38h | Well, it is not Dell's problem | 20:49 |
| mikhas | al_0, pymaemo-optify is just for maemo debianization | 20:49 |
| mikhas | so should be easy to get rid of that dep | 20:49 |
| RST38h | Based on what you describe, it is unlikely to be Nokia's problem (the behaviour is too specific, hw does not break this specifically) | 20:50 |
| *** tg has joined #maemo | 20:50 | |
| *** _trine has quit IRC | 20:50 | |

| tycho | I did you fuck | 20:54 |

| tycho | Ok so I managed to get ovi suite working after installing wmp 11 | 21:03 |
| tycho | The only linux computer I got is a ppc running debian | 21:04 |
| merlin1991 | Funnyface, I'd just shorten d+ and d+ without any resistor, that's proven to work | 21:04 |
| tycho | Is it possible to flash a device with it | 21:04 |

| infobot | merlin1991 meant: Funnyface, I'd just shorten d- and d+ without any resistor, that's proven to work | 21:04 |
| trumee | DocScrutinizer: do i need anything else to patch up stock kernel other than usbhostmode.diff for h-e-n? | 21:05 |
| al_0 | the last time I tried ovi suite it didn't even export sms in csv, while nokia suite did... I hope they fixed that | 21:05 |
| merlin1991 | tycho http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware#Linux | 21:05 |
| Funnyface | alright, but I can just use a resistor since I have lots of them. means that plugging it into a USB port on a PC won't necessarily kill the bus | 21:06 |
| tycho | merlin1991: It only supports 32 bits debian | 21:06 |
| tycho | Is a 32 bit os the same as a ppc one | 21:06 |
| merlin1991 | ah sry missed the ppc part | 21:06 |

| derf | It went downhill from there. | 21:21 |
| RST38h | derf: Fun! | 21:22 |
| tycho | Is there a way some sudo or access thing can destroy the n900 file ssystem | 21:22 |
| lardman | RST38h: well yeah to all the above, but I hope that once I've got Meego working vaguely usefully on the Tab, it will be useful too | 21:22 |
| DocScrutinizer | tycho: anyway you've been warned. If I had been alert realtime, you were already banned. Please do not call names on others in this chan | 21:22 |

| jonwil | Android "dev" scene is all about taking bits from one phone, mixing it with bits from another phone and producing a so-called "custom ROM" (that probably violates the copyright of who knows how many developers) for people to flash onto their devices | 21:26 |
| RST38h | lardman: Midnight Commander =) | 21:26 |
| lardman | yeah but really the in-built one should just work | 21:27 |
| lardman | also the lack of "open term here" | 21:27 |
| steinex | does Meegos mail application support watching other Folders than INBOX? | 21:27 |
| RST38h | lardman: the in-built one was originally based on the same mc, but perverted to the point of unusability | 21:27 |
| tycho | Basically my problem is 1. A nokia ovi store notice pops up everytime i start the phone , 2. no conversations are saved and I think the eventlogger folder might be corrupted because whe ni try rm -f it just says nfs handle error | 21:28 |
| ShadowJK | I have my mail sorted into about 20 folders by the mail server. I access my mail through imap. Folders show up on n900 | 21:28 |
| derf | lardman: I don't use a file browser at all. | 21:28 |
| tycho | 3. my nokia keeps sending me sms saying welcome back to ovi store | 21:28 |
| derf | And I don't miss it. | 21:28 |
| steinex | ShadowJK: folders show up, yeah, but i cant subscribe folders | 21:29 |
| ShadowJK | tycho, nfs handler error doubles as generic "your filesystem is fubar" message :-) | 21:29 |
| tycho | Shit | 21:29 |
| steinex | ShadowJK: i want to use my n900 as a nagios-mail-alert-handy | 21:29 |
| tycho | fubar as in | 21:29 |
| tycho | I need to buy a new one? | 21:29 |
| steinex | and i don't want to clutter my inbox with nagiosmails... | 21:29 |
| tycho | Or just , format ? | 21:29 |
| ShadowJK | filesystem, not hardware, so just format | 21:29 |
| tycho | ovi suite wont let me reinstall the firmware | 21:30 |
| tycho | Or do I have to flash it? | 21:30 |
| DocScrutinizer | tycho: nokia store msg is cherry, see wiki about cherry and MyNokia/NotMyNokia | 21:30 |
| Funnyface | now to figure out which wire goes where.. | 21:30 |
| DocScrutinizer | tycho: NFS errors are usually indication of a completely wrecked FS. reflash, it's proabably the only thing you can do | 21:31 |
| ShadowJK | Yeah, you'd have to flash both the "fiasco" and emmc images. It'd wipe everything and start from scratch, so I'd copy music and such off of it first. | 21:31 |
| tycho | Ok | 21:31 |
| tycho | Do you think it is possible to use a ubuntu livecd and run it as live and do it ? | 21:31 |
| ShadowJK | yep | 21:32 |

| RST38h | lardman: you can probably run a second X11 on it =) | 21:33 |
| lardman | RST38h: that's a pita though | 21:33 |
| tycho | ShadowJK: Its probably easy on linux | 21:33 |
| derf | Hmm, I thought win7 didn't support multiple cards from different vendors. | 21:33 |
| lardman | no actually the problem with this monitor is that Linux won't detect it | 21:33 |

| ironchew | I have a problem with the N900's application manager. | 22:10 |
| * RST38h promptly hits his head at the wall | 22:11 | |
| ironchew | I tried adding the extras-devel repo and now it doesn't display any repositories at all. | 22:11 |
| * javispedro ponders why x-chat suddenly went to white font over white bakcground for no discernible reason =) | 22:11 | |
| *** comawhite is now known as zz_comawhite | 22:12 | |
| RST38h | javispedro: that was ironchew adding extras-devel repo. | 22:12 |
| javispedro | possibly, | 22:12 |
| javispedro | or me destroying gconf | 22:13 |
| javispedro | ok,fixed. | 22:13 |
| ironchew | In the log I keep on getting various iterations of "apt-worker: Ignoring version from wrong domain: PROGRAM" | 22:13 |
| RST38h | umgh | 22:13 |
| ironchew | I would normally try and fix the apt files myself, but I don't have a way to get root permissions. | 22:13 |
| ironchew | So I'm in a bit of a pickle, I guess. | 22:13 |
| steinex | so my n900 just got a use back :) | 22:13 |
| RST38h | Ok. Logical first steps: | 22:13 |
| steinex | or better, a value... | 22:14 |

| *** merlin1991 has joined #maemo | 22:14 | |

| javispedro | soltys, anything newsworthy? | 22:16 |

| javispedro | meego is already modular, afaik. | 22:21 |
| RST38h | javispedro: During your desktop unix boot time, see how much time NTFS initialization takes | 22:21 |
| RST38h | javispedro: You may be surprised | 22:21 |
| javispedro | mount time? I do not think the proposal is about having root on ntfs or the like | 22:22 |

| al_0 | yep | 22:44 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | a recent one? | 22:44 |
| al_0 | yep | 22:44 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | because very old version are less performant | 22:45 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | is it better under windows? | 22:45 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | with the pentium 4? | 22:45 |
| al_0 | yes, it is | 22:45 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | ok, so maybe bugreport to the ntfs3g devellopers | 22:45 |
| al_0 | I thought it was a known issue | 22:45 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | I've no idea | 22:45 |
| al_0 | I mean, the high cpu usage | 22:45 |
| GNUtoo|laptop | findout if it's a known issue | 22:46 |
| al_0 | I think I will just keep complaining :P | 22:47 |
| al_0 | no, seriously, from what I've read the router linux distros don't reccomend NTFS | 22:48 |
| *** BabelO_ has quit IRC | 22:49 | |

| Venemo | realsportcars: make the thing not readonly. and on text change, restore the original text. | 23:24 |
| realsportcars | uhm...do you know fastsmsevo? | 23:25 |
| Venemo | realsportcars: no | 23:25 |
| Venemo | realsportcars: what's that? | 23:25 |
| realsportcars | ok...this is a virtual kb replacement on N900 | 23:25 |
| Venemo | realsportcars: and? | 23:26 |
| realsportcars | with autorotation, t9, qwerty ecc | 23:26 |
| realsportcars | the problem is that: | 23:26 |
| Venemo | realsportcars: sounds okay! | 23:26 |
| realsportcars | if the field is read-only "commited" text will go to "client" app | 23:26 |
| realsportcars | if not, the text is commited sometimes yes and sometimes not | 23:27 |
| Venemo | interesting | 23:27 |
| Venemo | realsportcars: if it has any support for non-Latin1 characters (öüóőúéáűí), I'll gladly test and help with it | 23:28 |
