jacekowski | on top of flash chip | 01:00 |
jacekowski | you need controller | 01:00 |

jacekowski | and that's what makes card an SD card or compact flash or memory stick or whatever | 01:00 |

*** noodles900 has quit IRC | 04:34 | |
ieatlint | also, nokia spent $3.9bn US on R&D in 2010 (apple comparatively spent less than $1bn on phones)... if they spent that only to use MS software, their shareholders would also be very upset | 04:34 |
ShadowJK | the argument is that they'd save a large part of that 4bn by letting MS spend it on Windows phone :P | 04:35 |

johnx | heh | 06:36 |
rm_you | so i just click around on random cities until i get one that says GMT -6 | 06:36 |

ShadowJK | "These limitations have caused problems. For example, before 2005, DST in Israel varied each year and was skipped some years. Windows 95 used rules correct for 1995 only, causing problems in later years. In Windows 98 Microsoft marked Israel as not having DST, forcing Israeli users to shift their computer clocks manually twice a year. The 2005 Israeli Daylight Saving Law established predictable rules using the Jewish calendar but Windows zone files cannot | 06:42 |
ShadowJK | represent the rules' dates in a year-independent way. " | 06:42 |
* ShadowJK lols | 06:42 | |
johnx | heh | 06:42 |
rm_you | lol, so the rest of the world's population suffers because Israel can't make up their damn minds | 06:43 |
johnx | yeah, and the US and Canada *would* have had different DST rules *except* that Canada chose to pass the same law as the US about changing it | 06:43 |
johnx | the US can't either | 06:43 |
johnx | DST changed on 2007 for no good *#&$ing reason | 06:43 |
johnx | Look, let's save time and just have the general form of this argument: Is it better to provide options that fit 99% of peoples' situations, or to purposefully leave out 20% of people to make things easier for the remaining 80%? | 06:45 |

DocScrutinizer | temperature is a factor, yes. Though not as much as current density (electron wind) is.

DocScrutinizer | WRT undervolting: imagine one gate output is delivering a degraded signal due to undervolting limiting the voltage range. Now this poor signal might cause a totem pole stage later in signal path to not properly switch from one state to the other, causing *both* transistors opening partially and creating a short from VDD to GND | 10:22 |

DocScrutinizer | I'm not saying this is likely to happen, I just point to the fact only TI knows how to operate their chips safely, and when TI says "limit operation time @600MHz to 1000h" and also provides a certain voltage regulation profile, then who do those OC fools think they are to know better, and just suggest "undervolting to mitigate OC dangers" | 10:28 |
RobbieThe1st | I'm pretty sure that no one believes that undervolting mitigates OC dangers. | 10:29 |

SpeedEvil | There are generally valid cases for opening most bits of hardware - even if it seems not at first glance. Of course, just because something is open does not mean that people will be interested enough to develop stuff in a timely manner. | 11:18 |
SpeedEvil | Enough people. | 11:18 |
SpeedEvil | For example - the remaining openmoko distributions are interesting, and would have been compelling if they'd existed 3 years ago. But it's a relatively few people working on them, so progress is slow. | 11:19 |

jonwil | The problem with the OpenMoko stuff and the Freerunner is that the hardware was obsolete even before it went into production. | 11:56 |
jonwil | The N900 on the other hand has good hardware IMO | 11:56 |
kerio | haha what? | 11:57 |
kerio | it grinds to a halt if you do a tiny bit of IO | 11:57 |

psycho_oreos | its more or less the same issue with n900 isn't it? :) | 11:58 |
SpeedEvil | In xmas 2007, they could have had a working functional phone stack with X/gtk. It was not very pretty, but it basically worked. | 11:58 |
SpeedEvil | (based on the march 2007 software stack) | 11:58 |
jonwil | The FreeRunner isn't even quad band GSM, let alone EDGE or 3G | 11:58 |
jonwil | it has no 3G whatsoever | 11:58 |
jonwil | I mean 3D | 11:58 |
psycho_oreos | again it was budgeting constraint :) | 11:58 |
SpeedEvil | They then went and changed the software stack several times to make it 'shiny', and did the same with the hardware - that got delayed, and turned out to be not great. | 11:59 |
jonwil | I think the real problem for FreeRunner people was finding someone willing to let them have the hardware they wanted and to make things open enough | 11:59 |
psycho_oreos | and again n900 also failed in that path | 12:00 |
SpeedEvil | In another universe, they bugfixed the neo1973, and just sold the damn thing with a working phone stack, some basic apps, and little else. | 12:00 |
psycho_oreos | not everything inside n900 was open | 12:00 |
SpeedEvil | And use the funds to polish. | 12:00 |
SpeedEvil | And then sold lots more. | 12:00 |
jonwil | only things on N900 not open on the linux side are the GPU and GPS AFAIK | 12:00 |
jonwil | Everything else is open thanks to MeeGo | 12:00 |
kerio | and the bme | 12:00 |
jonwil | yeah BME | 12:01 |
kerio | and rapuyama | 12:01 |
psycho_oreos | the other recurring problem with freerunner was also the fullMAC atheros wlan aka ar6xxx | 12:01 |
kerio | and the camera firmware | 12:01 |
psycho_oreos | fm transmitter | 12:01 |
psycho_oreos | etc etc | 12:01 |
jonwil | Camera and cellmo firmware (and bluetooth and wifi) run on separate CPUs | 12:01 |
kerio | oh you mean just the software | 12:01 |
psycho_oreos | iirc stskeeps had quite an extensive list of proprietary components including software | 12:02 |
kerio | well, half of the gps runs on rapuyama, afaik | 12:02 |

jonwil | whereas for many other parts of the cell modem, they have documented it through ofono | 12:02 |
jonwil | and the n900 driver in ofono | 12:02 |

*** hannesw has joined #maemo | 12:06 | |
psycho_oreos | correct but when you were talking about n900 I thought you were referring to its base OS not the new platform which wasn't included as standard on n900 | 12:07 |
*** ohwhyme has quit IRC | 12:09 | |
jonwil | For GPS, hopefully Nokia can publish the specs for the isi/phonet GPS calls. Someone (I forget who) was going to talk to the right person at Nokia. Worst that can happen is that we get a "no, that information wont be made public | 12:09 |
jonwil | or no response | 12:09 |

johnx | the requested open sourcing of a ton of stuff from the Maemo3/4 days | 12:11 |
johnx | might just be my imagination, but I think they've been better lately | 12:12 |
johnx | I don't think they ever claimed they'd open BME | 12:12 |
*** valeriusN has joined #maemo | 12:14 | |
jonwil | Looking at the list of closed meego-on-n900 packages here http://download.meego.com/live/Trunk:/non-oss:/Testing/Trunk_Testing/armv7l/ there seem to be logical reasons for most of them remaining closed | 12:14 |
jonwil | BME has been discussed before | 12:14 |

*** petrux has quit IRC | 12:15 | |
*** FIQ|n900 has joined #maemo | 12:16 | |
jonwil | only items there that I question the need to keep closed would be the pulseaudio bits, the sysinfod bits, wl1251-cal and maybe libcal or the -dev package for libbmeipc | 12:17 |
*** valerius has joined #maemo | 12:19 | |
*** ptl has joined #maemo | 12:19 | |
johnx | so then the situation is much better than it used to be :) | 12:19 |
johnx | I'm happy to be wrong :) | 12:19 |
jonwil | actually, cloning libbmeipc isnt hard, its knowing all the different messages that get sent to BME via libbmeipc | 12:19 |
johnx | I should mention the situation is better this time around because we have people like you who are happy to roll up their sleeves and jump in :) | 12:21 |
DocScrutinizer51 | meh, bme requirement specs are no way reasonable to keep closed as well | 12:22 |
*** petrux has joined #maemo | 12:23 | |
jonwil | well if we had the libbmeipc source or even -dev package, we would know everything we need to know to build a replacement BME | 12:23 |
jonwil | well everything we need to know to make the replacement compatible with the real thihng | 12:23 |
DocScrutinizer51 | and generally Nokia still doesn't really *push* openness. It's more like they tolerate they have to deal with it for linux | 12:24 |
*** petrux has quit IRC | 12:25 | |
DocScrutinizer51 | they still think they can differentiate via software | 12:26 |
jonwil | top of my wishlist for openness would be libbmeipc-dev package, info on ICD policy plugins (preferably code for the stock plugins), info in the IncomingCBS dbus signal and info on the isi/phonet calls for GPS | 12:26 |
DocScrutinizer51 | isi cmt API (a)gps specs, isi cmt SMSCB specs | 12:27 |
jonwil | well SMSCB would be covered by the IncomingCBS signal | 12:28 |
jonwil | everything seems to be in place if someone was able to hook up to that signal and do something with the actual messages | 12:28 |
DocScrutinizer51 | full datasheet of BB5 rapuyama interfacing | 12:29 |
DocScrutinizer51 | jonwil: incoming smscb must get enabled by a command to cmt | 12:29 |
DocScrutinizer51 | the gsm stack changes to an other operation mode | 12:30 |
jonwil | well in that case there must be something sent via DBUS to csd-sms plugin | 12:31 |
jonwil | thats the most logical answer | 12:31 |
DocScrutinizer51 | so you have to tell cellmo chip 'please enable smscb' | 12:31 |
jonwil | I cant find anything in ofono that handles "enable SMSCB" as such | 12:31 |
jonwil | or sends such an "enable" packet | 12:32 |
DocScrutinizer51 | yes, maybe. if that's even implemented | 12:32 |

SpeedEvil | jonwil: Using this (and other info) you can - with the aid of another local reciever - correct position to within a meter or so | 13:20 |
SpeedEvil | jonwil: Also - if you have more info to feed into the GPS - for example an accellerometer - then bundling that data in with the raw range data can make a much less noisy position solution. | 13:20 |

DocScrutinizer | RobbieThe1st: proprietary firmware is - a part of a periph subsystem. It's fine as long as the subsystem works as defined and "sold". If it doesn't, well then go for a better peripheral, or ask the manufacturer of that particular peripheral to fsckng fulfill the contract | 13:50 |

azkay | pyscho: Think you can help me out? Ive been trying to get it working for the past 3 and a half days. Ive had it working twice and left it alone, next day its stopped working completely. | 13:53 |
azkay | Running Arch on my laptop, was connecting with networkmanager as someone suggested to me on the arch channel | 13:53 |
azkay | thought maybe it was the n900, reflashed it over an hour ago and no change, ive tried restarting networkmanager on arch, ive tried reinstalling, deleted the old settings and reinstalling | 13:54 |
psycho_oreos | I've toyed around with getting USB networking to work with arch but had failed a few times. It works well under ubuntu however | 13:55 |
azkay | The only way I can get the laptop to connect over usb, is if I give usb0 a static ip via networkmanager, which works (sort of), but if I do that it kills the wifi connection on the laptop, no idea why. | 13:55 |
azkay | Oh, damn | 13:55 |
*** chx has quit IRC | 13:55 | |
psycho_oreos | ahh that's easy | 13:55 |
azkay | I wouldnt really care as much, but ive been setting up this laptop since monday and im going to bali on tuesday, looking at the progress ive made, everytime I fix something, something else goes wrong | 13:56 |
psycho_oreos | it kills the connection is because of multiple default gw are defined, you just have to erase the one that sets up USB networking with n900 | 13:56 |
*** netepal has quit IRC | 13:56 | |
psycho_oreos | and yeah the usual USB networking wiki page recommends static IP anyway :) | 13:56 |
DocScrutinizer51 | RobbieThe1st: you'd not bitch about opensourcing the controller code of your SATA HDD, even if it fails to support SATA3. You either flash a new firmware which comes as a blob from manuf, or you simply swap the HDD for a better one, on warranty | 13:57 |

DocScrutinizer51 | look, quite frequently you'd not understand a single byte of the opened code anyway. Odds are it comes in assembler gibberish, for a processor you never heard about, and is accessing registers to do things you hafe no clue what they are | 13:59 |

*** arno0ob has quit IRC | 14:00 | |
psycho_oreos | azkay, that's an easy fix :) interesting how you got it working with networkmanager, I've been trying to get it to work with netcfg under arch but it fails | 14:00 |
azkay | I was originally using wicd for my wireless because it was the first thing I could get working, couldnt get network manager to work | 14:01 |
azkay | went through and uninstalled wicd | 14:01 |
azkay | then I yaourt networkmanager network-manager-applet gnome-keyring | 14:02 |
azkay | edited a few stuff in the rc.conf, I think that was pretty much it then | 14:02 |
psycho_oreos | I've always used netcfg for both wired and wireless.. but the thing doesn't work well with n900 via USB networking, kinda pissed me off but oh well | 14:02 |
azkay | I decided to finally stick with linux, for awhile anyway. Got this laptop for $300, had W7 on it for 2 days then convinced myself to try linux again, every previous time ive tried I got angry and got rid of it after the first day. Slowly getting somewhere. | 14:03 |

*** eijk has joined #maemo | 14:34 | |
lindi- | markinfo: 1) it's a fairly large standard and clients tend to only implement small part of it 2) it kind of assumes an internet with no firewalls or nats (you can workaround them to some extent but it is hard to automate) | 14:34 |
villager | it was a "me too" for "I don't like skype" | 14:34 |
DocScrutinizer | and mine was a "it will kill your battery no matter why you enabled it" | 14:35 |
lindi- | markinfo: part "1)" includes things like encryption, call forwarding, chat | 14:35 |
lindi- | markinfo: and also that almost all clients tend to have their own SIP stack instead of using some more generic library for it | 14:36 |
villager | DocScrutinizer: like I said, that wasn't an answer... I wrote my line without even seeing yours | 14:36 |
DocScrutinizer | so what? | 14:36 |
villager | DocScrutinizer: it just annoys me that you're talking to me as if I had said a word about the battery | 14:37 |
DocScrutinizer | I wrote my comment to that line without even bothering if it's a question, a rant, or whatever | 14:37 |
lindi- | markinfo: SIP is pretty ok for replacing analog phones in an office LAN | 14:37 |
DocScrutinizer | villager: what makes you think I talked to you? | 14:37 |
lindi- | markinfo: but there too the phone manufacturer has their own proprietary solution for address book | 14:38 |

DocScrutinizer | villager: not ok, what? | 14:38 |
yacc | markinfo: Well, SIP is not exactly a friendly protocol overall, e.g. it's one of the NAT-unfriendliest protocols, (one that comes that is worse would be PPTP, ...) | 14:38 |

DocScrutinizer | but that is a common problem for all services you offer on your box | 14:46 |
villager | DocScrutinizer: well, the easiest would have been to not answer my lines, since they were not intended for you to answer... yet you insisted on arguing with me largely irrelevant points for no reason, when I gave several reasons not to argue because I had not disagreed with you... I simply don't get it, why do you enjoy arguing so much, then? | 14:47 |
yacc | DocScrutinizer: So if you just happen to be on one of these common networks where all devices have visible valid IP addresses, you are fine. (Well, visible valid IP addresses from the PoV of your PBX/SIP provider), ... | 14:47 |
DocScrutinizer | yacc: still it worked like a charm for me, for ~3 years | 14:47 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: also afaik SIP has some "Call-ID" fields that are free form strings with no upper limit in the standard. that makes connection tracking kernel space tricky | 14:47 |
yacc | DocScrutinizer: Well, it was a PITA to setup even on my home WLAN, ... | 14:47 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: using something like 64-bit identifier would have been nicer | 14:47 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: so that you don't need to strcmp() for every SIP packet ... | 14:48 |
lindi- | yep SIP does not work to my SIP provider with my WLAN for some reason. it is double-NAT which might have something to do with it but it's hard to debug since I can't see what's on the other side of the outer nat | 14:49 |
DocScrutinizer | lindi-: how's that going to matter? SIP data volume for a call are some few hundered bytes, to establish and tear down the call. The rest is RTP | 14:50 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: it'd be a lot easier to be able to use fixed lenght identifier | 14:50 |
DocScrutinizer | meh | 14:51 |
lindi- | anyways, my notes on setting up SIP quickly and painlessly are at http://lindi.iki.fi/lindi/sip/asterisk.txt | 14:51 |
DocScrutinizer | the main problem of SIP is it's doing things *right*, I.E. tries to establish a point2point 2way connection between the 2 peers of a call | 14:52 |
*** chx has joined #maemo | 14:52 | |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: depends on who you ask :) | 14:52 |
DocScrutinizer | while skype for example is using relays whenever needed, so you don't have the NAT issue | 14:52 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: I'd very much like to have a more general purpose transport than IP | 14:53 |
DocScrutinizer | even more general purpose than IP? o.O ;-P | 14:53 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: a library that'd just have "send_data_to("Alice@foo.bar", buf);" | 14:53 |
yacc | DocScrutinizer: That's a very theoretical PoV, for the last decade or so, establishing a true P2P connection has been only of limited practical value. | 14:53 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: and it'd then use whatever means it needs to use to send that buf to alice | 14:54 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: be it ipv4, ipv6 or decnet :P | 14:54 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: udp, tcp or HTTP proxy | 14:54 |
DocScrutinizer | yacc: please elaborate | 14:54 |
DocScrutinizer | lindi-: well, that's SIP ;-D | 14:55 |
yacc | DocScrutinizer: Well, for at least the last decade we are living with NATing routers being standard. Not as in used by geeks, but by "put in" by ISPs by default at your Grandma's place. | 14:55 |
yacc | DocScrutinizer: With most ISP standard setup, you get a NATed address even if you have exactly one PC at home, ... | 14:56 |
* SpeedEvil waves his static IP back and forth. | 14:56 | |
DocScrutinizer | yeah, and SIP mitigated that by introducing STUN, hosted NAT traversal (even including relays), ICE, and whatnot | 14:57 |
yacc | DocScrutinizer: Just presuming that you can establish a direct TCP connection to a peer, without planning in a well working workaround that is there by default, is, well, not very practical. | 14:57 |
lindi- | SpeedEvil: one static IP only helps if you don't move :) | 14:57 |
lindi- | SpeedEvil: try using it while in cafe, library, university, bus | 14:57 |
DocScrutinizer | yacc: check N900 SIP advanced setting: you'll find STUN there | 14:58 |
lindi- | DocScrutinizer: yeah SIP tried a lot but it's not enough unfortunately | 14:58 |
yacc | SpeedEvil, static IPs are bad, I cannot easily get a new IP either, and that sucks when trying to fetch something from rapidshare or similar services ;( | 14:58 |

DocScrutinizer | lindi-: it is | 14:58 |
SpeedEvil | lindi-: vpn | 14:58 |
lindi- | SpeedEvil: that only works for you, not for your grandma | 14:58 |
lindi- | SpeedEvil: and it's very inefficient to relay all the traffic to your home | 14:59 |
DocScrutinizer | lindi-: it's users at large that don't put the meassures to purpose correctly | 14:59 |
yacc | DocScrutinizer: yeah, I had STUN support on my E61 too, and it still took enabling a STUN proxy on my router to make it work :( | 14:59 |
GeneralAntilles | Damn, NOLO tries for about 10 seconds then dies. | 14:59 |
SpeedEvil | I would be really, really surprised if my grandma required internet. | 14:59 |

yacc | DocScrutinizer: Plus SIP via UMTS (because it's usually NATed, and even non-NATed providers do manipulate traffic, I've found) is about as reliable as roulette ;) | 15:01 |

DocScrutinizer | lindi-: fine. One very common problem (maybe even a flaw in that partucular STUNlib implementation) is the 'ping'-test to own IP. Many networks have local-loopback disabled, which means you can't reach your very own public IP though everybody outside your LAN can. STUNlib fails on this, detecting a false positive on symmetric NAT | 15:21 |

DocScrutinizer | it *should* search for available alternative WLAN as soon as the present connection stalls. So 10 minutes is OK usually. It only means you'll swap from GPRS to WLAN after max 10min, and it may take up to 10min after you come home til WLAN is detected&connected | 16:13 |

javispedro | hi there | 19:40 |
javispedro | hmpf. never used it :P | 19:40 |
lardman | nor have I, but apparently implementations for the sgx 5xx exist | 19:40 |
javispedro | if they, I don't have them. I only have GL + VG here. | 19:40 |
lardman | you've used opengl though? | 19:40 |
javispedro | yep | 19:41 |
lardman | ImgTech tout the SGX as having an OpenCL implementation, assuming you pay for it | 19:41 |
* lardman is doing CUDA stuff at work, wondering whether to move to OpenCL instead, and that made him think of mobile dev stuff and whether there were any applications for our hw | 19:42 | |
*** lcuk has quit IRC | 19:44 | |
javispedro | as usual, this all depends on wheter you can convince TI/Nokia to give you the libs... | 19:44 |
javispedro | afaik the sgx is capable of it. | 19:44 |
lardman | indeed, I was also thinking about looking at the old-school ways of mapping useful work into OpenGL code | 19:45 |
lardman | not that graphics isn't useful ;) | 19:45 |
javispedro | then there's some pdf around talking about the precisions the sgx uses in shader math, lemme google it | 19:45 |
javispedro | ah, it's on the SDK | 19:45 |
lardman | thanks | 19:45 |

javispedro | yet another engadget rumour? =) | 20:00 |
trip0 | it'd be like saying: "Qt, yeah, you know... that thing that we are developing to unite the world... Yeah, that's a bunch of crap. Silverlight FTW!!!11" | 20:01 |
trip0 | engadget didn't start the rumor this time | 20:01 |

javispedro | well companies make stupid moves from time to time, you know. | 20:01 |
trip0 | it came from an "Analyst" | 20:01 |
javispedro | I still remember Palm buying Be Inc, then splitting it, then trying to get their OS designers to build a Web Browser. | 20:02 |

*** florian has quit IRC | 20:52 | |
derf | The column-wiseness I am actually okay with. | 20:52 |
derf | A lot of matrix algorithms really should operate on columns. | 20:53 |
lardman | confusing for C though as that assumes rows, though it really depends how you do it in your head | 20:54 |
*** jhb has joined #maemo | 20:54 | |
*** eMHa has joined #maemo | 20:55 | |
derf | Well, C and mathematics do not agree, but that's more C's fault. | 20:56 |
lardman | :) | 20:56 |
derf | But there's no excuse for 1-based indexing, even given mathematics, because then the language and the _machine_ don't agree. | 20:57 |
lardman | yeah, makes all sorts of things annoying | 20:57 |

DocScrutinizer | makulkar_laptop: you are aware that when you plug in USB N900 to desktop PC, then the ssh connection is via USB and has *nothing* to do with your possibly existing LAN? | 22:02 |
*** thomasjfox has joined #maemo | 22:02 | |
DocScrutinizer | I.E if you want to reach N900 from laptop, you need to plug the N900 USB to laptop | 22:03 |
MohammadAG | the N9 should have two USB ports to solve that issue | 22:03 |
makulkar_laptop | DocScrutinizer, yeah. I mentioned about LAN because to convey IP address range are same. Device has some valid/invalid range | 22:03 |
MohammadAG | also useful if one USB breaks | 22:03 |
makulkar_laptop | DocScrutinizer, I have. first I up the USB0 and then try to ssh to device on laptop which times out. | 22:04 |
*** kodomo_ has joined #maemo | 22:04 | |
MohammadAG | is the device connected to the laptop? | 22:04 |

dan2003 | Hi guys, im making a little homescreen widget which monitors a value (obtained via JSON from a server), I am comparing this value with some defineable limits and wish to sound an alarm when it is outside the safe area. I have managed to make a libnotify bubble work, i now wish to make it produce a sound - it must produce this sound eveb of profile is set to silent - this is imeperitve. What would be the best way to do this? | 22:17 |
thomasjfox | dan2003: Search talk.maemo.org for "libplayback" | 22:17 |

dan2003 | this looks like it will do what i want | 22:21 |
*** renatofilho has quit IRC | 22:23 | |
dan2003 | im not sure actually - will need to study and test - the alarm is more important than a phone call, this example seem sto give a phone call higher priority | 22:24 |

Tu13es | so i've got an n800 on my desk and i have no idea what to use it for | 22:28 |
Tu13es | is it worth trying to find something to do with it? | 22:28 |
Tu13es | I have an iPhone which does pretty much everything I want in a mobile device | 22:28 |
dan2003 | thomasjfox: hi, yeah, this looks promissing but im not sure it will do quite what i need, The alarm must take priority over everything - including incoming or established calls | 22:28 |
dan2003 | Tu13es: send it to me :) | 22:29 |
Tu13es | what will you use it for? | 22:29 |
Tu13es | i wish there was a good clock app for it | 22:29 |
dan2003 | remote controll for media player | 22:29 |
Tu13es | or something to get growl notifications or something | 22:29 |
dan2003 | my n900 does the job nicely, but when im not in my miss's has to resort to laptop - less than ideal | 22:30 |

DocScrutinizer | sorry play-sound | 22:34 |

thomasjfox | Which reminds me to copy the libplayback example code to the wiki | 22:35 |
dan2003 | thomasjfox: sorry, not sure if u saw answer re language, im using Qt and hence c++. | 22:38 |

Tu13es | wow, apparently n800s sell on ebay for like $50-75 | 22:41 |
Tu13es | i guess there's my answer | 22:41 |
* DocScrutinizer sighs and wonders why we need this PA cruft, while ALSA been so nice and simple, just use the proper output device as a proxy for any friggin playback priority group | 22:41 | |
kerio | DocScrutinizer: but Doc, that would be the sensible thing to do! | 22:42 |
DocScrutinizer | ooh yes. Sorry | 22:42 |
thomasjfox | may be it has something to do with the forced muting/stop of audio streams on incoming calls | 22:42 |
kerio | thomasjfox: alsa has mixers | 22:43 |
*** Tu13es has left #maemo | 22:44 | |
thomasjfox | kerio: True that | 22:44 |
DocScrutinizer | ALSA has hooks too | 22:44 |
DocScrutinizer | which are really nice, for exactly that purpose to implement such things like playback priority assigned to a audio device | 22:45 |
dan2003 | hmm, so it works in silent profile, which is good :). but makes no sounds at all whilst in a phone call :(.. Even if i could get the ear peice beep that happens if a txt or another call comes , that would be gd | 22:46 |
thomasjfox | dan2003: Did you just compile the example code? | 22:46 |
dan2003 | yup | 22:46 |
