DocScrutinizer | there's been some crossword program that combines arbitrary words from dictionary to form a crossword, but that's rather useless without proper descriptions of the words I guess | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
*** style has joined #maemo | 00:01 | |
LjL | DocScrutinizer: there is? does it create actual crosswords, or more like things where 90% of it is blank? because i've been looking for the former | 00:01 |
DocScrutinizer | umm, dunno | 00:01 |
style | Hi, I could use some help with maemo's terminals and it's mouse logic... why does it sometimes shows pointer icon and sometimes does not? | 00:01 |
DocScrutinizer | I guess that depends on parameters, and dictionary | 00:02 |
LjL | DocScrutinizer: i think the algorithm itself must also be pretty strong to generate a solid puzzle | 00:02 |
DocScrutinizer | hmm, simple try and error plus the speed of a 2GHz CPU will do | 00:03 |
BCMM | indeed | 00:03 |
BCMM | it's just a few dictionary attacks, where a very large number of words are a legit password :) | 00:03 |
DocScrutinizer | minimax strategy it's called iirc | 00:03 |
DocScrutinizer | just undo some "moves" if the results are poor in current step, use different words and evaluate a new set, compare to old and keep the better one | 00:05 |
*** aloisiojr has joined #maemo | 00:06 | |
DocScrutinizer | you can also call it an algo based on evolution | 00:06 |
DocScrutinizer | and given the fact you can search in dict using regex, it's probably like 100 lines of code | 00:08 |

trumee | MohammadAG, what happened to the mediaplayer you were developing. is it complete? | 00:22 |
Dhraakellian | so... MediaBox or Rockbox? | 00:23 |
trumee | iirc the goal to finish that was in january? | 00:23 |
Dhraakellian | afaict, Rockbox would be preferable if the controls/keybindings were improved | 00:24 |
Dhraakellian | ...and scrobbling worked | 00:24 |
* Dhraakellian wonders how hard it'd be to port over qtscrob | 00:24 | |
trumee | Dhraakellian, is Rockbox c++? | 00:24 |
Dhraakellian | trumee: C | 00:24 |
*** me|kor has quit IRC | 00:24 | |
BCMM | MohammadAG: also, is it actually called Mohamediaplayer yet? | 00:24 |
trumee | Dhraakellian, probably performs better than python Mediabox | 00:25 |
Dhraakellian | yeah | 00:25 |
*** ftrvxmtrx has joined #maemo | 00:25 | |
trumee | Dhraakellian, can it do ogg/internet radio? | 00:26 |
Dhraakellian | and, assuming the keybindings get worked out, getting back and forth between database, current track/wps, and playlist should be a lot easier than mediabox's convoluted navigation | 00:26 |
Dhraakellian | no network stack in Rockbox | 00:26 |
Dhraakellian | but it'll play pretty much any friggin' format you could ever throw at it | 00:26 |
Dhraakellian | ...so long as it's not DRM-encumbered | 00:26 |
BCMM | Dhraakellian: MediaBox or Rockbox for what? | 00:27 |
Dhraakellian | just general opinions of which is better | 00:27 |
Dhraakellian | mediabox is shinier | 00:27 |

Dhraakellian | and scrobbles (last I checked, RaaA/maemo's scrobbling wasn't working) | 00:28 |
Dhraakellian | thomasjfox: does mainline Rockbox have that? | 00:28 |
thomasjfox | rumor has it next release will support scrobbling :) | 00:28 |
thomasjfox | Dhraakellian: Yes, since 30 minutes or so | 00:28 |
Dhraakellian | ooooh | 00:28 |
Dhraakellian | ...not that I really care, since I use external image files | 00:28 |
Dhraakellian | but still, nifty for those who use it | 00:29 |
trumee | thomasjfox, so Rockbox cannot do streaming radio/icecast? | 00:29 |
thomasjfox | trumee: No network support (yet?) | 00:29 |
*** Geo has joined #maemo | 00:29 | |
trumee | thomasjfox, in the maemo port or even in the main software? | 00:30 |
thomasjfox | trumee: Main software | 00:30 |
Dhraakellian | trumee: remember that most DAPs don't have network hardware | 00:30 |
thomasjfox | trumee: Rockbox's background is digital audio players like Archos or ipod | 00:30 |
Dhraakellian | or Sansa | 00:31 |
BCMM | yeah, i'm slightly confused at it being talked about as a userspace program | 00:31 |
Dhraakellian | but, yeah, it's only the RockboxAsAnApp targets that have network | 00:31 |
Dhraakellian | BCMM: first came the UI simulators | 00:31 |

Dhraakellian | trumee: are you familiar with last.fm? | 00:32 |
BCMM | so how does RockboxAsAnApp work? whole rockbox stack adapted for userspace, or just the GUI of rockbox on it's own? | 00:32 |
Dhraakellian | (which was originally audioscrobbler) | 00:32 |
BCMM | does is still play doom? | 00:32 |
trumee | Dhraakellian, ah! used a little in amarok | 00:32 |
Dhraakellian | BCMM: I imagine it probably could play Doom | 00:33 |
*** Lantizia has joined #maemo | 00:33 | |

javispedro | that's the _swap_ partition | 02:44 |
DocScrutinizer | POR: Caused by a low battery and a low backup battery. The device also resets itself, including the backup domain registers (except the reset management that generates the reset), when the main battery is removed within 8 seconds after PWRON is pressed for more than 8 seconds and then released. This is not only a manual reset, but also a switch-off of the device. Pressing PWRON for 8 seconds without removing the battery also switches off | 02:44 |
DocScrutinizer | the device (even if the backup registers are not reset). | 02:44 |
javispedro | reboot time... | 02:44 |
* javispedro makes a point to try that later on | 02:45 | |
*** LjL has quit IRC | 02:45 | |
javispedro | this is absolutely funny. | 02:46 |
javispedro | suddenly the kernel went crazy and forgot about the swap partition size. | 02:46 |
javispedro | so everything that gets swapped out is corrupted | 02:46 |
javispedro | uh oh, including my FS | 02:47 |
DocScrutinizer | When PWRON is pressed for 8 seconds and the battery is not removed, all the registers in the VBAT domain except SC_CONFIG, SC_DETECT1, SC_DETECT2, WATCHDOG_CFG, and IT_CHECK_CFG are reset, and the registers in the backup domain are reset only when the main battery is removed after pressing the PWRON key for 8 seconds. | 02:47 |

DocScrutinizer | (2.85V startup) umm, actually: >> VBUS and USB levels are reset to 0 when VBAT is low. When recovering from a VBAT domain reset (for example, when changing from NO_BAT to VBAT > 3.2 V), if the starting condition levels are valid, the device starts (example: it starts if VBUS is already plugged in). | 03:08 |

Gorroth | did nokia really kill off the N9? this makes me want to hulk smash! | 06:36 |
Gorroth | javispedro: you mean C++? | 06:37 |
javispedro | no, I mean C 201x, google it | 06:37 |
Gorroth | i did | 06:37 |
Gorroth | C++ came up first | 06:37 |
*** incar has joined #maemo | 06:39 | |
RobbieThe1st | Gorroth: We don't know. It's all rumor at this point | 06:39 |
RobbieThe1st | Something will probably carry the "N9" label... but what the hardware behind that is... | 06:40 |
*** hardaker has joined #maemo | 06:43 | |
Gorroth | yeah | 06:44 |
Gorroth | i just want it to be a phone, not a tablet | 06:44 |
Gorroth | i mean, tablets are welcome | 06:44 |
Gorroth | but i want a phone first | 06:44 |
RobbieThe1st | It'll probably be like the n900 - mostly tablet, with phone functionality | 06:44 |
RobbieThe1st | something that's a phone formost is probably reserved for low-end devices. | 06:45 |
Gorroth | mmm, well, they probably should rethink that | 06:45 |
*** Roksteady has quit IRC | 06:45 | |
RobbieThe1st | Hell, I'd argue the same about the iphone and androud | 06:45 |
RobbieThe1st | *android | 06:45 |
RobbieThe1st | Phone functionality's just low end. What we're dealing with is a phone "module" plugged into a computer - literally, in almost all cases | 06:46 |
Gorroth | yeah, that is readily apparent in maemo | 06:47 |
Gorroth | needs to be seemless | 06:47 |
Gorroth | seamless | 06:47 |
RobbieThe1st | eh, I disagree. For most people using one of these, the amount of time used as a phone is comparitively small | 06:47 |
Gorroth | not a good argument | 06:48 |
Gorroth | but i digress | 06:48 |

psycho_oreos | nokia has been dogging with symbian | 06:48 |
RobbieThe1st | Personally, I just took an old Nokia dumbphone and used that as my phone - It's got excellent battery life because it's never used | 06:49 |
psycho_oreos | you think nokia would all of the sudden scrap all symbian for maemo/meego? | 06:49 |
RobbieThe1st | N900's for everything else; that way I never run out of battery when I -need- phone functionality. And of course, I can always stick my sim in the n900 if I want it at some point | 06:49 |
RobbieThe1st | (like if I get a data plan cheaply) | 06:49 |
*** daxt has joined #maemo | 06:50 | |
SpeedEvil | psycho_oreos: I don't think they have enough fecs up to speed to get meego to mass market. | 06:51 |
psycho_oreos | SpeedEvil, fecs? | 06:51 |
psycho_oreos | ~google fecs | 06:52 |
SpeedEvil | I have no idea what I tried to type there | 06:52 |
SpeedEvil | enough coders | 06:52 |
psycho_oreos | lol stupid bot.. meh | 06:53 |
RobbieThe1st | I think meego will probably get to market - Intel's got deep pockets, regardless of Nokia | 06:53 |
SpeedEvil | Sure. | 06:53 |
psycho_oreos | yeah well their main focus has been symbian, even after sacking a fair portion of symbian devs | 06:53 |
SpeedEvil | But will meego get to market quickly? | 06:53 |
RobbieThe1st | I also think Symbian's not gonna disappear - They are still selling many million devices. | 06:54 |
*** smhar has quit IRC | 06:54 | |
psycho_oreos | no it won't disappear, my point is that nokia treated maemo like a niche market sort of thing hence the lack of functionality for this and that.. and when it came to n900, it was delivered poorly | 06:55 |
psycho_oreos | intel may have deep pockets but they won't like to do with the ARM platform for too long | 06:57 |
doc|home | maybe the marketing/sales but the phone itself is one I wouldn't swap for an iphone | 06:57 |
psycho_oreos | s/do/deal/ | 06:57 |
infobot | psycho_oreos meant: intel may have deep pockets but they won't like to deal with the ARM platform for too long | 06:57 |
Sc0rpius | well a Nokia phone with an Intel Atom is not a bad idea in my head | 06:57 |
doc|home | is the power usage comparable? | 06:57 |
*** anidel_ has joined #maemo | 06:58 | |
Sc0rpius | well there has been rumors of phones with Intel Atom hitting the market this year | 06:58 |
psycho_oreos | it won't be powered by atom, it'll be some really small intel x86 chipset, that was codenamed moorestown and has been available in aava mobile | 06:58 |
DocScrutinizer | RobbieThe1st: thanks for the idea you gave me | 06:58 |
Sc0rpius | Pankaj Kedia, the Director of Intel’s Global Ecosystem Programs has shown us the first Atom-powered phones, one of which is from LG (model GW990). | 06:58 |
Sc0rpius | (that was several months ago) | 06:59 |
RobbieThe1st | DocScrutinizer: And which was that? | 06:59 |
Sc0rpius | but it was kinda usless | 06:59 |
Sc0rpius | then they said the next generation will consume 10 times less power | 06:59 |
psycho_oreos | and cheaper by the dozen? :) | 06:59 |
*** GNUton-BNC has joined #maemo | 07:00 | |
DocScrutinizer | you need a phone that works, even when you leeched battery empty on N900 with 'other usage' | 07:00 |
RobbieThe1st | Oh yea. That -would- be a good idea | 07:00 |
RobbieThe1st | Like a backup battery or disabled functionality at 10-20% charge? | 07:00 |
DocScrutinizer | so the case of concern is: N900 stopped data nad irc and whatnot, and you need a working phone | 07:01 |
*** anidel has quit IRC | 07:01 | |
DocScrutinizer | yes | 07:01 |
DocScrutinizer | exactly | 07:01 |
DocScrutinizer | 10% should be enough | 07:01 |
doc|home | for me data is more important than being able to get a phone call. I rarely use the phone as an actual phone :) | 07:02 |
doc|home | data and sms that is | 07:02 |
DocScrutinizer | hehe, I'll come up with a nice lil app tomorrow | 07:02 |
doc|home | heh | 07:03 |

ShadowJK | of course I don't open the lid as often as I pick up my N900.. and my N900 doesn't go into full suspend when I put it in my pocket.. | 07:41 |
*** Necc has joined #maemo | 07:43 | |
ShadowJK | It takes like 3 seconds to hybrid suspend, which is fast for a x86, but still very slow | 07:43 |
ShadowJK | on OLPC they could throw out the BIOS and use some opensource replacement, so they could actually enter suspend while still displaying a page of text on screen, and come out of suspend fast enough when user moved mouse that it was seamless more or less :D | 07:44 |

johnx | marmoute, what was the presenter's name? Mr. Python? | 10:52 |
RST38h | johnx: Is anyone buying those WP7 phones, anyway? | 10:52 |
RST38h | johnx: Or is it a new Zune? | 10:52 |
johnx | RST38h, soooo, I actually live like 10 minutes from MS HQ. I hang out with a lot of the MS guys on a regularish basis. Of the 8 or so I know, I think two (a husband and wife) have a WP7 phone | 10:53 |
johnx | but android adoption was not super quick either | 10:53 |
RST38h | johnx: So, what DO they have? RAZRs? | 10:53 |
johnx | given time I think it will eek out a decent little niche next to Android for one reason or another | 10:53 |
ZogG | johnx i bet they got WP7 phones cause they don't care and it was for free | 10:53 |
johnx | RST38h, iphones. android. one has an n900 | 10:53 |

ZogG | and to sell it | 10:55 |
ZogG | just not sure to do it or wait | 10:55 |
RST38h | johnx: Not clear why anyone would buy something like that, given a choice of Android and iPhone phones | 10:55 |
ZogG | maybe i can take n8 for free as well | 10:55 |
ZogG | but i wouldn't chnage n900 anyway so it's btter phone i can sell easily | 10:55 |
ZogG | RST38h, i don't get why people buy iphone at all | 10:56 |
johnx | RST38h, the two people I know who have them didn't pay for them, AFAIK. I don't remember what dept they work in, but they might also have work involving them | 10:56 |
ZogG | i think there are two things iphone is awesome | 10:56 |

ZogG | you gonna go for qml as i assume | 13:08 |
chem|st | Pillum: if there is only one the question is obsolete | 13:08 |
ZogG | so you can make nice menu like in new gpodder | 13:08 |

ZogG | that is new gpodder UI, NSFW as it's too sexy =) | 13:12 |
Khertan | really not bad | 13:12 |
ZogG | Khertan, wazd helped thp to do it | 13:12 |

*** setanta has joined #maemo | 13:13 | |
ZogG | it you do something like that you can put your own buttons between minimize and close | 13:13 |
Khertan | hum ... git ... copu / paste | 13:13 |
ZogG | it would be nice to have menu | 13:13 |
Khertan | exactly what i think | 13:13 |
ZogG | like hom/mentions/DMs/list | 13:13 |
ZogG | home* | 13:13 |
ZogG | like in android and other crappy phones clients =) | 13:14 |
ZogG | but better | 13:14 |
ZogG | as maemo ftw =) | 13:14 |

ZogG | what for unified? | 13:14 |
ZogG | never got it | 13:14 |
ZogG | search is nice | 13:14 |
Khertan | ZogG: did you use chrome browser ? | 13:14 |
ZogG | mentions should be second as it's more important | 13:14 |

ZogG | i think home is for who i follow(including mentions) | 13:18 |

ZogG | Khertan anyway retwitted ( your by others ) doesn't work properly on twitter | 13:22 |
Khertan | ZogG: yep i know | 13:22 |

Jaffa | lardman: Given the state of the community, I dunno if the "easy entry" is still a requirement. But we might get an influx of new members if a) the N9 is awesome and loads of N900s go for sale; b) the N9 never gets released/doesn't meet ppl's requirements and there's suddenly a demand for N900s as the zenith ;-) | 13:27 |

ZogG | as i don't see meego on n900 coz of the old HW | 13:29 |
akikhaw | i have to say that N900 is the kind of an phone that grows on you the more you use it | 13:29 |
akikhaw | a casual, non techy user is probably going to sell it and buy something else | 13:29 |
*** deegee__ has quit IRC | 13:29 | |
akikhaw | but for others.. it just becomes better and better all the time | 13:29 |
ZogG | and it would be miracle if Nokia would succeed to promote N900 for developers when they failed once and aboded Os already | 13:29 |
ZogG | akikhaw agreed | 13:30 |
ZogG | i was so sorry for n900 after i saw cool androids but i played with android and n900 is much better again for me | 13:30 |
ZogG | i just think the UI in android is much better | 13:30 |
ZogG | it's more phone UI but the way they did it | 13:31 |

ZogG | ThreeM, i mean not whole UI but small things, for e.g. portrait/landscape. the way you can change lockscreen, virtual keyboards | 13:32 |
Jaffa | ZogG: Who said anything about N900s running MeeGo? If Nokia's MeeGo handsets aren't what people who've been holding off buying want, they might buy N900s instead | 13:32 |
Jaffa | ZogG: Eh? you can change the lockscreen on Maemo; it's jut no-one does | 13:32 |
ZogG | in maemo it was developed as one solution in android all those parts are like puzzle, you change this with that and you don't need to patch and change whole system | 13:32 |
ZogG | Jaffa, MohammadAG is planing | 13:33 |
ZogG | Jaffa, i just think the API of android as the system is more easy | 13:33 |
ZogG | maybe i'm wrong as i'm total noob in it =) | 13:33 |
ZogG | API /framework or what eever you call it | 13:34 |
ThreeM | maemo has QT | 13:34 |

ZogG | ThreeM, for example as we talked above, gpodder is rewritten with QML and use it's own system menu, but you can't easly change that as the system wide menu | 13:39 |

psycho_oreos | they now recommend zypper however | 15:15 |
ruskie | unless I'm missing on some special tricks to improve it | 15:15 |
psycho_oreos | O | 15:16 |
achipa | in either case, since dependencies are basically still uled out by the compliancy program, you don't really 'need' any of the advanced features of apt anyway :( | 15:16 |
psycho_oreos | I've had my gripes with yum but that's because yum is heavily dependent on python (because the source code is essentially python). However zypper is written all in C/C++ | 15:17 |
ruskie | hmm can one use zypper as a drop in? | 15:17 |
psycho_oreos | not sure | 15:17 |
*** chx has quit IRC | 15:17 | |

pupnik | if meego package installation is slower than android, then it's a failure | 15:18 |
psycho_oreos | android has their own fancy package based management system, like iphones | 15:18 |

DocScrutinizer | Though POSIX initially defined some unix system call conventions, it's nowadays way more and beyond, and applicable to OS that for sure are NOT unixoid. So I wonder what POSIX conformity got to do with definition of "real unix" | 16:22 |

DocScrutinizer | the simple fact: there is no such thing like THE TRUE UNIX. | 16:28 |
DocScrutinizer | OS-A might be 70% SUS compliant (add list of conflicts here), plus 98% POSIX compliant (add another list), and 100% src portable to OS-B and OS-C, where OS-B maybe is a "real unix" by any arbitrary definition someone likes to apply | 16:31 |

DocScrutinizer | changed to "none" - let's watch that shite for another 5 days | 18:13 |
BCMM_ | i mean, it wouldn't be a problem if the router didn't support PSM | 18:13 |

smhar_ | I gave up trying to free more space in my N900's rootfs to upgrade to PR1.3 . I am considering now Backing up my data and factory reset the N00 and starting fresh. probably a good thing to do after all the time I spend with the different repositories. My question is: what to files/directories backup? | 18:31 |
*** tripzero has quit IRC | 18:31 | |
*** chx has joined #maemo | 18:32 | |
hardaker | smhar_: the default backup application gets 99% of the important stuff. | 18:32 |
BCMM_ | smhar_: why factory reset? just flash 1.3, it'll overwrite everything | 18:32 |
hardaker | the things I'd consider keeping would be the /etc directory if you've modified anything, and the keysym file if you've modified your keymap. | 18:33 |
BCMM_ | smhar_: depends what you've modified. have you manually added anything to ~/ or system directories like /etc/? | 18:33 |
hardaker | but yes, just flash.. you don't need to "reset" | 18:33 |
*** abhy has quit IRC | 18:33 | |

*** Sicelo has quit IRC | 18:34 | |
*** MadViking has joined #maemo | 18:34 | |
hardaker | smhar_: I don't think I've ever done OTA because I *never* have enough room on / | 18:34 |
smhar_ | BCMM_, nothing special | 18:34 |
hardaker | BCMM_: copying it somewhere until you know is what I meant, not necessarily a permenant archive. | 18:34 |
*** Sicelo has joined #maemo | 18:34 | |
hardaker | I always end up needing to do something with /etc/ssh afterward | 18:35 |
BCMM_ | smhar_: btw, in theory, your MyDocs shouldn't be affected by reflashing | 18:35 |

DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: luke-jr, whom-it-may-concern: ISI specs actually mention how to talk GPS and even AGPS to cmt, it's called Modem LCS (Location Server) there. ((actually Mickey found this, so credit goes to him)) | 21:03 |
ieatlint | they just better make damn sure if they switch to MS software that it doesn't just die off too | 21:03 |
ieatlint | android is the safer choice :P | 21:03 |
ieatlint | but either way, they're fucking themselves over with qt | 21:03 |
ieatlint | they should've just bought palm last year... webos is at least viable in the short term | 21:04 |

*** willer is now known as willer_ | 21:04 | |
DocScrutinizer | mickey claims he found quite some non-specs conforming implementation details in N900 RAPUYAMA BB5 cmt, so while the LCS cmds might be ok, the data structures might differ and need some work | 21:04 |
*** baraujo_ has joined #maemo | 21:05 | |

SpeedEvil | I bet it's an announcement that they are going to be releasing some W7 models. | 21:13 |
ieatlint | is there any reason to believe W7 other than the ceo is from MS? | 21:13 |
SpeedEvil | I will in fact go so far as to put down as a bet this 38g lump of corned beef. | 21:13 |
piggz | so, has everyone given up hope without waiting for th announcement? | 21:14 |
*** kthomas_vh has quit IRC | 21:14 | |
ieatlint | i'll bet this half cup of coffee that part the announcement will be related to the n8 | 21:14 |

* SpeedEvil sighs. | 21:15 | |
ieatlint | windows 7 is .net based, unproven, requires licencing, has tiny app base .... android is java based (not any better, maybe worse), free licencing, large app base, and is a word that in itself is a selling point... | 21:16 |
ieatlint | so yeah, based on nokia's past decisions, it'll be the less viable option | 21:16 |
*** GNUtoo|laptop has joined #maemo | 21:16 | |

RST38h | it is disturbing to see you rate software in terms of good and evil... | 21:29 |
derf | There's a whole generation of programmers who _would_ have gone into open source who now think they can "monetize" their work in an App Store. | 21:29 |
RST38h | I mean, it is just a bunch of code... | 21:29 |
RST38h | derf;: and no, can't monetize much via the app store, it is about as solid as "american dream" | 21:30 |
GeneralAntilles | derf: yes, but Android is undermining half the existing open source community. | 21:30 |
DocScrutinizer | RST38h: nah, we're talking ecosystems here, or call it paradigm if you like that better | 21:30 |
derf | RST38h: I know that, and you know that, but they don't. | 21:30 |
RST38h | poor lemmings, they will learn | 21:30 |
derf | But it's training them to think giving away source code is "stupid". | 21:31 |
RST38h | you want their source? | 21:31 |
RST38h | in java, with google extensions? | 21:31 |
derf | I don't want to be doing this forever. | 21:31 |
SpeedEvil1 | derf: Arduino will save us! | 21:32 |
derf | There's systems I would never work on, but I'm happy that somebody does. | 21:32 |
derf | Like, anything involving Qt. | 21:32 |
RST38h | what is wrong with qt? | 21:32 |
derf | It's written in C++. | 21:32 |
DocScrutinizer | tbh, all I've seen so far from andridiot was utterly stupid, they have NFC about what'S a proper OS and which implications they run into when messing around with kernel and system libs just for fun. And then they think that's "contributing to FOSS" when they feed back that crap to linux and shove it down the throat of working distros | 21:33 |
RST38h | hm..ok, what is wrong with C++ then? | 21:33 |
derf | RST38h: We've had this conversation before, and it's besides the point. | 21:33 |
RST38h | (as long as you avoid stl, exceptions and most teplates) | 21:33 |
RST38h | derf: Yea | 21:33 |
RST38h | derf: But I still fail to see the pointin aversion to C++ | 21:34 |
derf | I'm not asking you to. | 21:34 |
derf | I'm asking you to accept that _I_ don't like it. | 21:34 |
RST38h | derf: Except maybe for the fact that you get into a bit of dll hell with it :) | 21:34 |
derf | But that doesn't mean I'm not happy there are open-source C++ projects. | 21:34 |
RST38h | hm, ok | 21:35 |
kwtm | derf: Sorry to drag this out --I myself haven't had this conversation with you before, so I'll ask as an outsider who doesn't know C++: is there something about C++ that would make you suggest that I not learn it, or is it just a personal preference? | 21:36 |
*** dazo is now known as dazo_afk | 21:36 | |
*** willer has joined #maemo | 21:37 | |
DocScrutinizer | kwtm: the C++ gurus of this world think they are a group of maybe 20 that *really* master C++ | 21:37 |
DocScrutinizer | some of them think C++ is overly sophisticated | 21:38 |
* RST38h is not a C++ guru and so has no problems suggesting to learn C++, just do it cautiously | 21:39 | |
DocScrutinizer | recent research seems to indicate C++ doesn't help on productivity or code quality of large projects | 21:39 |
kwtm | DocScrutinizer: Okay ... but is it worth learning even if I don't master it? Of course, this depends on my own personal situation, but in general, for someone who works with FOSS and would like to be able to write small programs quickly, maybe use Qt, is it worth learning? | 21:39 |
derf | kwtm: Nothing personal, but I have better things to do today than rant against C++. Google for logs of this channel if you really care. | 21:39 |
RST38h | As "C++ to C is what lung cancer is to lungs" | 21:39 |
derf | RST38h: Hahaha. | 21:39 |
kwtm | Ah, I see. So, in summary, it is an unnecessary complication to using C to do the same thing. | 21:40 |
*** achipa has joined #maemo | 21:40 | |
*** achipa has joined #maemo | 21:40 | |
DocScrutinizer | kwtm: definitely yes | 21:40 |
DocScrutinizer | you can't use Qt without basic C++ knowledge | 21:40 |
kwtm | The reason I ask is because I plan to use PyQt to put up some simple GUI scripts, and was wondering if it would be a good investment to learn C++ in order to use Qt to the fullest. | 21:40 |
kwtm | DocScrutinizer: I suspect that my meaning of the phrase "use Qt" is much more liberal than yours. :) | 21:41 |
kwtm | I guess gone are the days when C++ was going to save the world ... | 21:41 |
RST38h | kwtm: When used carefully, C++ will help you better organize your code | 21:42 |
jacekowski | DocScrutinizer: do you have link to that spec | 21:42 |
RST38h | kwtm: When used to the full "power", it will blow your brains out | 21:43 |
DocScrutinizer | kwtm: at very least you need a good understanding of OO concepts, no matter if that's C++ or any other OO language. Qt however is genuine C++ | 21:43 |
DocScrutinizer | jacekowski: isi shit? | 21:43 |
kwtm | DocScrutinizer: Yeah, I think I don't fully get OO yet. I use OO features of Python but I think I'll get laughed out of town if I show my code to anyone. | 21:44 |
jacekowski | yes | 21:44 |
DocScrutinizer | mompls | 21:44 |
kwtm | My own impression of C++ is "it was supposed to be a superset of C but when it compiles my C code it chokes on 'main(int argc, char *argv)' because there's no 'void' in front of 'main()' " and then it went downhill from there. | 21:45 |
*** n900evil has joined #maemo | 21:45 | |
RST38h | kwtm: actually, your main()is supposed to return int | 21:45 |
RST38h | when you skip return type, "int" is assumed | 21:45 |
RST38h | but your "char *argv" is incorrect anyway, either in C or in C++ | 21:46 |
kwtm | RST38h: Yeah, but I didn't know that when I wrote my C programs, and I just didn't want to bother going back to change everything I had written for the two years previous ... (This was before I started with Linux) | 21:46 |
RST38h | so, maybe you should not blame C++ for your mistakes | 21:46 |
kwtm | RST38h: Well, it was an example of how C++ is much stricter for return values ... I haven't done C programming for decades now, so not surprised that I got it wrong... | 21:47 |
ieatlint | use char **argv, it confuses people who claim to know c/c++ but don't | 21:47 |
RST38h | const char *argv[] is the best option | 21:47 |
RST38h | clearest | 21:47 |
ieatlint | const is a good idea... the notation is otherwise entirely visual... | 21:48 |
ieatlint | although i think argv is actually writable, just a bad idea to alter | 21:48 |
alterego | It is, glib and Qt do it. | 21:51 |

*** baraujo has quit IRC | 23:28 | |
derf | You can only read it through the shader units, and you can't write to it directly. But you can copy the contents of a linear array into it. | 23:28 |
derf | (the reason being that it's not laid out linearly in memory, and exactly _how_ it's laid out was supposed to be this big proprietary secret they didn't want to expose) | 23:28 |
* lardman|home is more abstracted than that | 23:29 | |
derf | Well, these details show up in the CUDA API. | 23:29 |

lardman|home | but I'm only half way through the CUDA by example book, which does mention texture memory | 23:30 |
derf | It's actually really damn annoying. Algorithms which are fast in OpenGL can't be implemented in CUDA in the same way, because you can't write to textures directly. | 23:30 |
*** messerting has quit IRC | 23:30 | |

MohammadAG | lardman|home, thought as much at first, but I like to finish all games I get | 23:36 |
derf | lardman|home: In a limited fashion. E.g., you can run a fragment shader "for all texels", and the return value from each instance gets written to that texel. | 23:36 |
lardman|home | derf: interesting | 23:37 |
derf | You can also do multi-texture outputs, where you return several values, and each one gets written to a different texture. | 23:37 |
lardman|home | MohammadAG: yeah but the ~£25 i pay for a game doens't commit me to do something that I don't find fun | 23:37 |
lardman|home | derf: I'm doing heat simulation, so no need for that :) | 23:38 |
derf | What you can't do is have a single program write more than one value to the _same_ texture, or figure out where you're going to write to after you run the program. | 23:38 |
derf | Right, for heat simulation you shouldn't have to get to fancy. | 23:39 |
derf | *too | 23:39 |
lardman|home | ah, well is that a limitation caused by thread consistency, or whatever it would be called? | 23:39 |
lardman|home | to avoid writing more than one value to the same location? | 23:39 |
derf | Well, worse than that. | 23:39 |
derf | Texture memory is organized into 2D blocks, and loaded into and out of cache in those blocks. | 23:40 |
derf | On NVIDIA cards these are 8x8 (this is one of their big proprietary secrets). | 23:40 |
derf | So if you want to write to a pixel, you have to load the whole 8x8 block in, update the pixel, and then flush it out (this is what the hardware does... this doesn't show up in the API anywhere). | 23:40 |
derf | That is, that's what you _would_ do if scattered writes were supported. | 23:41 |
lardman|home | but you can't really support scattered writes from a kernel can you anyway? | 23:41 |
*** mardi has quit IRC | 23:41 | |
derf | What it actually does is runs the 64 instances of your program for the 8x8 block, collects all the return values in cache, and replaces the whole block in main memory at once. | 23:41 |
*** briglia has quit IRC | 23:42 | |
derf | lardman|home: For ordinary global memory, yes you can. | 23:42 |

derf | Well, you have to make sure they don't conflict. | 23:42 |

derf | So: writing to 8 even pixels == 8 memory accesses. | 23:47 |
lardman|home | goes into quite a bit of detail of trading off threads with registers vs memory vs #SMs, etc., etc | 23:47 |
*** bjv has joined #maemo | 23:47 | |
derf | Reading in 16 pixles, updating the even ones, and writing 16 back out: 2 memory accesses. | 23:47 |
derf | (reads and writes aren't equal, but let's pretend for the moment) | 23:48 |
lardman|home | there's a 2nd pass tpop though assuming you use an if{} in there | 23:48 |
lardman|home | s/tpop/too | 23:48 |
derf | Not sure what you mean by that. | 23:49 |
lardman|home | apparently the kernel must be run N times per warp depending on the number of paths in the code | 23:50 |
derf | Not really. | 23:50 |
derf | How would it know, in advance? | 23:50 |
derf | What actually happens is it runs all the paths on all the threads. | 23:51 |
*** OkropNick has quit IRC | 23:51 | |
derf | But the ones not actually "on" that path don't write back the results of whatever the operation was. | 23:51 |
derf | I.e., if you have an if(){...} else{...}, everyone will run the if, then everyone will run the else. | 23:52 |
*** VanDamas has joined #maemo | 23:52 | |
derf | But the ones that are supposed to go in the else branch will convert everything to nops while the if is being run. | 23:52 |
derf | And vice-versa while the else is being run. | 23:53 |
derf | And if everyone takes the _same_ branch, then it doesn't have to run the other one at all. | 23:53 |
lardman|home | sure, but you still get a 2 run penalty | 23:53 |
derf | Well, if you just have an if(){...}, then it still only gets run once. | 23:53 |
lardman|home | yeah, so that depends how you structure your code so that singe warps can take the same path | 23:53 |
derf | But, e.g., if it's an if(even pixel), then half the threads do something, and the other half sit idle. | 23:54 |
*** BCMM has quit IRC | 23:54 | |
lardman|home | yes, apologies, I should have added an else (if) | 23:54 |
lardman|home | yeah ok | 23:54 |
lardman|home | looks quite interesting working out the trade offs to get stuff working as quickly as possible | 23:55 |
lardman|home | otoh, not sure how easy it is to write code that will scale to newer processors, which is part of the goal of CUDA | 23:56 |
* VanDamas http://hotour.ucoz.com Visit my site to download my all Hot videos! | 23:56 | |
*** VanDamas has quit IRC | 23:56 | |
lardman|home | scale -> scale to generate code that is optimum for the # of register memories, constant memory, etc., etc | 23:56 |
derf | Yeah, that is sort of why I gave up on it. | 23:57 |
derf | It's "neat", but the original CUDA is a toy. | 23:57 |
lardman|home | well assuming it will work for my simulations then "neat" is good enough :) | 23:58 |
derf | You can make one-off things that run with it, but stuff like "constant memory gets reserved for the life of the application" are _terrible_ from a real software engineering perspective. | 23:58 |
*** OkropNick has joined #maemo | 23:58 | |
derf | Yeah. If you just care about the output, and aren't actually shipping this to anyone in a product, then it works. | 23:59 |
