Sc0rpius | actually and this is very much falling into their trap | 01:35 |
Sc0rpius | it doesn't really work | 01:35 |
Sc0rpius | let's say the numbers are very very very big but close to each other | 01:35 |
Sc0rpius | then they will divide the integers by magnitudes like you say | 01:35 |
Sc0rpius | but then the sleep function doesn't start at the same time for the whole list, since it's inside a loop (a for() ) | 01:36 |

*** Wamanuz2 has quit IRC | 06:46 | |
*** Wamanuz2 has joined #maemo | 06:48 | |
DocScrutinizer | I heard of several ways to deal with the problem: prefixes like in "[E:4154] File not found" is one, Qt-linquist has the concept of context qualifiers and even comments in source. But never I seen something as awkward as "Homescreen" -> "tana_fi_thumb_home_btn" | 06:48 |
DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: I guess the translators don't have the software to test their translations live, but only screenshots at best. Now if there are several "file not found" msgs that maybe need different translations depending on application context ("can not read config" vs "Project file not found"), then obviously the only solution they could come up with is to have unique crappy strings like "tana_fi_thumb_home_btn" in source/program, so the | 06:54 |

* kirma reads about harmattan device security policy. wondering if "The device owners define the device policy based on their needs and goals" means that on unlocked, non-developer mode devices, users can really install software sources easily, with credentials for *any* resource any practical application or service could need | 07:47 | |
kirma | as far as those don't put MSSF or hardware itself at risk | 07:47 |
kirma | because if that's not possible, it's that S60/MIDP application signing hell once again... | 07:48 |

kirma | DRM doesn't really bother me. content by *other* software vendors may be encrypted or limited in access in a way that my software can't access it. I'm just considered of the possibility that I couldn't set up my own software shop that could for instance implement some of the plugins without expensive application certifications... | 08:00 |
kirma | just if user decides to trust my software source, I could do basically everything else except compromise MSSF itself, or, for instance, blow up the battery | 08:01 |
kirma | also wondering what would be the best channel to ask this kind of questions regarding meego/harmattan | 08:02 |

DocScrutinizer | kirma: the problem with DRM is you must make sure no ripper or other rogue sw is running in parallel to your e.g. mediaplayer | 08:09 |
DocScrutinizer | so DRM is exactly what hits you as a small shopee selling your own sw | 08:10 |
*** hardaker has quit IRC | 08:11 | |
DocScrutinizer | either you get Nokia to sign your sw after QA and security evaluation, or it mustn't run in parallel to DRM protected sw on same system, concurrently | 08:11 |
DocScrutinizer | there's no option for user to override this principle, as it's exactly the user that is considered rogue and has to get gontrolled by industry | 08:12 |
DocScrutinizer | s/contr/contr/ | 08:13 |
DocScrutinizer | s/gontr/contr/ | 08:13 |
infobot | DocScrutinizer meant: there's no option for user to override this principle, as it's exactly the user that is considered rogue and has to get controlled by industry | 08:13 |
DocScrutinizer | but, as mentioned above (thanks to Corsac for pointing me at the relevant email), it seems harmattan hasn't implemented DRM (yet?) | 08:14 |
DocScrutinizer | so for the rest of aegis benefits (should I say "benefits"?) you might actually be allowed to have full user control over all such things like integrity check, resource allocation and granting, crypted data storage, etc pp | 08:17 |
*** unixSnob has joined #maemo | 08:17 | |
DocScrutinizer | and yes, this might include sw-tokes for licence management of apps as well | 08:18 |
kirma | well, I'm not interested in rippers. I might be interested on call recorders, or implementing various plugins for which API is provided, or, of course, applications that access for instance address book and location data | 08:18 |
DocScrutinizer | kirma: it's irrelevant in what you're interested | 08:18 |
*** trupheenix has joined #maemo | 08:18 | |

*** valdyn has quit IRC | 08:19 | |
*** larsivi has quit IRC | 08:19 | |
kirma | I'm not exactly certain if we are talking of the same thing | 08:20 |
DocScrutinizer | that's what QA and cert at Nokia/$random-appstore is meant for - they guarantee that all signed apps are behaving, in sense of DRM | 08:20 |
DocScrutinizer | kirma: believe me, we are talking about same thing | 08:21 |
kirma | but what I'd want to see is concrete description of harmattan security policy in practice - what kind of software sources developers can create without certification by someone related to nokia, and what credentials such sources may grant (or, put the other way, which they *can't* grant) | 08:21 |
*** robbiethe1st has joined #maemo | 08:23 | |
DocScrutinizer | as mentioend above, since the critical DRM part got dropped, it seems user has full control over that, so basically there should be no limit there about what can or can not be granted | 08:23 |
DocScrutinizer | or defined | 08:23 |
*** Necc has joined #maemo | 08:23 | |
robbiethe1st | Hm... I always like to see DRM dropped, but in what? | 08:24 |
DocScrutinizer | robbiethe1st: aegis, harmattan | 08:24 |
robbiethe1st | Oh, good | 08:24 |
kirma | OTOH, it's only good in my opinion for device security that files can be kept visible only to their owning applications and encrypted with proper chain of trust if wanted so | 08:24 |
DocScrutinizer | kirma: sure | 08:25 |
kirma | and that access to various resources can be strongly enforced... as long as developers accessing non-critical features don't require going through certification hell | 08:25 |
ruskie | but that can be done differently anyway | 08:25 |
*** valdyn_ has joined #maemo | 08:25 | |
DocScrutinizer | thee are some concerns about this as well, regarding privacy, remote control over your property (data getting invalidated via online cert, see windows genuine) etc | 08:26 |
DocScrutinizer | but those concerns are minor, compared to big toad DRM | 08:26 |
kirma | I got the idea that MSSF principles were based on reasonably consumer-friendly basis originally, but are the actual shipping devices also hacker-developer-deployment friendly | 08:27 |
robbiethe1st | Isn't that sort of what the whole group/user model with Linux is supposed to do? | 08:27 |
*** unixSnob has quit IRC | 08:27 | |
kirma | because one thing that surely killed deployment of many MIDP and S60v3 applications were the capability limitations and the bureaucratic processes involved | 08:28 |
robbiethe1st | Root can access everything; setup a user with specific access to certain files; any other user without permission can't access files that aren't chmodded the right way... | 08:28 |
*** onen|openBmap has quit IRC | 08:28 | |

*** Wamanuz2 has joined #maemo | 08:29 | |
DocScrutinizer | robbiethe1st: basically yes | 08:29 |
kirma | well, developers can put their *own* devices to developer mode... but, it should be possible to deploy applications that don't try excess things such as blow up the battery also on normal-mode devices (I hope!), without cert hell | 08:30 |
DocScrutinizer | aegis is basically useless without DRM | 08:30 |
kirma | also, deploying such applications without IMEI bindings... | 08:30 |
DocScrutinizer | as all the other parts could have been implemented using existing methods | 08:30 |
RST38h | Aegis is useful to tell people who absolutely want it that it is there | 08:31 |
robbiethe1st | Well, kirma, that's what repos are for, like on the N900. | 08:31 |
RST38h | Does not even have to do anything useful, just be there | 08:32 |
robbiethe1st | You have extras for tested apps; and extras-testing / devel for potentially dangerous stuff | 08:32 |

DocScrutinizer | >>Services, such as mobile payments and copyright protection, require a strong security support from the operating system. The security of these services is essential to their usage, which is why such enablers should be provided by MSSF<< also DRM | 08:39 |

ruskie | wth is MSSF??? | 08:40 |
GAN900 | What is Elop thinking? | 08:40 |
DocScrutinizer | so probably that mail Corsac pointed at, that stated harmattan is dropping DRM was only another fog bomb to brainwash devels | 08:40 |
GAN900 | How the hell can you end this with one device. | 08:40 |

DocScrutinizer | the true name of aegis | 08:41 |
GAN900 | OK, so what is the BOARD thinking. . . . | 08:41 |
kirma | well, elop wants to make certain that sales are miserable so that he can stagnate "long term" development of meego into oblivion, making nokia dependent on microsoft | 08:41 |
ruskie | I'm more impressed that quite a few people @work are interested in a N9 | 08:41 |
GAN900 | So, in summary, "Long term disruptions." is bs | 08:41 |
kirma | then again, definition of a "phone" is slippery for nokia, and thus they can use weasel word excuses later if elop-sabotage fails | 08:42 |
GAN900 | How much bs can one company spew out? | 08:42 |

GAN900 | A lot of people in the US have already had experience with WinMob | 08:49 |

kirma | well, Elop obviously trusts that his disrespect for the platform makes operators and consumers avoid N9, and details of sales come at least one quarter late, just nicely for WP7 to take over | 08:49 |
kirma | fate of nokia is not important to elop, it's just better that nokia is weak than self-supporting | 08:50 |

monoid | umm. he could make drm'd WP7 phones | 09:19 |
robbiethe1st | Does that matter though? So long as MS gets their WP7 fee for each phone sold, do they really care what OS is actually run? | 09:19 |

DocScrutinizer | plus it's probably the only way to significantly spoil Elop's evil plot, when this anti vendor project gets some momentum, as it will have impact on MS plans about the ecosystem | 09:24 |
pabs3 | how open is meego? is it tightly controlled by vendors? | 09:24 |
DocScrutinizer | as soon as MS notices it and considers it as a potential threat in the future, they will do as always: embrace | 09:25 |
DocScrutinizer | so I can already see Balmer giving Elop a call | 09:25 |
robbiethe1st | I don't think we have too much to worry about there... No way is MS going to control anything, what with Android taking over the market.

DocScrutinizer | mainly it's just abold public statement council had to publish, about "we don't listen to Elop, we definitely will continue Meego(/maemo-harmattan)" | 09:30 |
DocScrutinizer | first instance | 09:30 |
* pabs3 would like to see that at the very least | 09:31 | |
DocScrutinizer | even such statement will kinda counteract Elop's plans | 09:31 |
DocScrutinizer | and may rise sales of N9 quite a bit | 09:32 |
DocScrutinizer | which will spoil Elp's/Balmer's plans even further | 09:32 |
DocScrutinizer | then get some anonymous Nokia employees state they like the idea of keeping meego alive and will help any way they can | 09:34 |
DocScrutinizer | maybe even not so anonymous | 09:35 |
DocScrutinizer | heck, this Elop isn't Godfather himself | 09:35 |

* kirma wonders if the news he passed are exactly from elop's mouth. it would not be the first time news outlets mix up factoids and persons commenting things... still haven't seen the paper version | 10:00 | |
Corsac | DocScrutinizer: the thing is, they seem to really want app developer (to bootstrap, I guess) and I'm not sure they're really interested in “platform” people | 10:01 |
DocScrutinizer | he might even deny and step back, depending on immediate impact this is causing. I doubt though he'll do anything like that | 10:02 |

*** shayneoneill has joined #maemo | 10:03 | |
Corsac | though 250 n950 is really little, they'll have a hard time selecting people | 10:03 |
DocScrutinizer | sure, but there are more on the commercial side | 10:03 |
* pabs3 heard orders of magnitude more | 10:04 | |
Corsac | ho? | 10:04 |
DocScrutinizer | I'd guess so, yes | 10:04 |
Corsac | (hey pabs3, you've been upgraded?) | 10:04 |
DocScrutinizer | Corsac: usual PV run at Nokia is probably some thousand | 10:04 |
Corsac | not sure exactly where I got that 250 number though | 10:05 |
DocScrutinizer | it's a correct number for meego community | 10:05 |
pabs3 | Corsac: I read on tmo that it was ~ 92000 total | 10:05 |
pabs3 | but who knows how accurate that is :) | 10:06 |
DocScrutinizer | Nokia developer has probably 10 times that number | 10:06 |
DocScrutinizer | pabs3: what? | 10:06 |
DocScrutinizer | WHAT? | 10:06 |
DocScrutinizer | 92k units N950??? | 10:06 |

Choom | kerio: I like to believe the idea is to have a platform to fall back to just in case WP7 ends up being a total failure | 10:10 |
*** kthomas_vh_ has joined #maemo | 10:11 | |
kerio | well no shit it'll fail | 10:11 |
kerio | nobody likes wp7 apparently | 10:11 |
DocScrutinizer | kerio: I don't think they planned or are planning now to do so (waste) | 10:11 |
DocScrutinizer | ruskie: (LG) rumour has that since quite some time | 10:11 |
kerio | devs don't like having to use html5, windows mobile users don't like the handholding, linux nerds don't like it because it's windows | 10:12 |

DocScrutinizer | yup | 10:14 |
Choom | I guess I'll pass on that | 10:14 |
Choom | my finnish isn't up to date | 10:14 |
ruskie | Choom, run it through a translator | 10:15 |
kirma | unless it's journalist speculation, it'd appear that elop states that qt is not coming to wp7, and that "according to elop, there is no return to meego, even if n9 would be a sales success" | 10:15 |
Corsac | well, we already know long term consistency isn't exactly a nokia specialty | 10:16 |
Corsac | (though I'm not sure we can count on that :) | 10:16 |
ruskie | kirma, QT is nothing new | 10:16 |
Corsac | and Intel seems really bored about Harmattan beeing called MeeGo after Nokia dropped them for MS | 10:16 |
kirma | I really wonder if these should be interpreted as official, stock exchange level statements or if elop uses his freedom to make informal statements to erode credibility of non-windows platforms | 10:17 |
ruskie | considering the win platform has none.. | 10:17 |
ruskie | that's a bit hard to do | 10:17 |
kirma | well, I think the company hasn't explicitly stated anything about inclusion or non-inclusion of qt on wp7 phones | 10:18 |

Venemo | N9: Standby time: Up to 450 hours (WCDMA), up to 380 hours (GSM) ----> how is this possible? I would have thought that GSM takes less energy than WCDMA | 12:49 |
DocScrutinizer | mo MohammadAG | 12:49 |
*** trbs has quit IRC | 12:50 | |
DocScrutinizer | Venemo: depends on particular build of modem. Basically standby means "RX only" and that might actually be better on WCDMA than on GSM | 12:50 |
*** FIQ|n900 has joined #maemo | 12:51 | |
SpeedEvil | RX with occasional waking up to check for scheduled signal from toer, and more occasional transmit to tower to tell it you're still awake | 12:52 |
DocScrutinizer | for TX WCDMA is usually more power consuming than GSM, mainly to the active time after transmitting a single byte of data | 12:52 |

DocScrutinizer | RST38h: indeed | 14:51 |
psychologe | YES | 14:51 |
DocScrutinizer | very good, thanks | 14:51 |
Hurrian | mmm, since this is #maemo, can i ask if anyone's been able to get the rootfs.lzo file opened up? | 14:52 |
DocScrutinizer | so Nokia just "fixed" the mce-whatever process that asks for lockcode, and probably checks for a cookie on eMMC somewhere in PR1.3 version | 14:52 |
DocScrutinizer | the simple but usually sufficient approach | 14:53 |
DocScrutinizer | not for using PR1.2 rootfs though ;-P | 14:53 |
*** mrsellout has joined #maemo | 14:54 | |
DocScrutinizer | to fix it for PR1.2 "crack" as well, they had to patch NOLO | 14:54 |
DocScrutinizer | which still leaves vulnerability of using coldflashing | 14:55 |
DocScrutinizer | so they can as well not care at all | 14:55 |
*** rd has joined #maemo | 14:56 | |
DocScrutinizer | they could take down PR1.2 COMBINED from their download site ;-P | 14:57 |

Hurrian | then again, most people who steal phones don't usually know how to use flasher ;) | 14:58 |
*** buntfalke has joined #maemo | 14:58 | |
DocScrutinizer | yeah, the whole purpose is rather questionable in the end | 14:58 |
robbiethe1st | AAnd you typically lose most data during the flash, so... | 14:59 |
DocScrutinizer | either they know, then they will crack lockcode anyway | 14:59 |
DocScrutinizer | or they dont, and just go "meh" | 14:59 |
robbiethe1st | 'Course, you can alternately just flash a backupmenu image, set it up, and get everything other than was on the rootfs... | 14:59 |
DocScrutinizer | exactly | 14:59 |
DocScrutinizer | infinite attack vectors | 15:00 |
DocScrutinizer | boot meego from uSD, via flasher | 15:00 |
DocScrutinizer | and recover all | 15:00 |
*** mitsutaka has quit IRC | 15:00 | |
robbiethe1st | Physicall ownership = ownership, really. | 15:00 |
DocScrutinizer | unless you use proper cryptofs | 15:00 |
Hurrian | also, n900 wasn't designed for full device encryption | 15:01 |
Hurrian | as we're painfully aware of | 15:01 |
DocScrutinizer | yup | 15:01 |
*** FIQ has joined #maemo | 15:02 | |
Hurrian | the most you could do locking down the thing would be crippling osso-usb-export, adding a lockcode, crypting /home and remounting everything, etc | 15:02 |
DocScrutinizer | ok, so general advice: GET YOUR LOCKCODE prior to flashing. If you missed on that, flash PR1.2 rootfs and reset it | 15:02 |
DocScrutinizer | patching NOLO would help a lot | 15:03 |
Hurrian | DocScrutinizer: well. how do we patch NOLO? | 15:03 |
Hurrian | >>>>>closed source | 15:03 |
DocScrutinizer | not at all, as we're missing source | 15:03 |
DocScrutinizer | just mentioning it | 15:04 |
Hurrian | unless we do it like the OpeniBoot people and rewrite it ourselves | 15:04 |
robbiethe1st | Hurrian: ...Or just mount an encrypted FS on MyDocs, and symlink your important data into that | 15:04 |
MohammadAG | DocScrutinizer, basically, he had the device ask for a lock code every hour or something | 15:04 |
robbiethe1st | *as a file in | 15:04 |
MohammadAG | I know the code, so I didn't disable this | 15:04 |
*** FIQ has quit IRC | 15:04 | |
MohammadAG | the device asked for the code before and after flashing | 15:04 |
DocScrutinizer | seems it even asks after flashing on devices that didn't ask before | 15:05 |
*** FIQ has joined #maemo | 15:05 | |
DocScrutinizer | as soon as you've changed lock code from default to sth different | 15:05 |
Hurrian | Doc: O RLY? | 15:05 |
Hurrian | wow, that's broken | 15:05 |
*** FIQ has quit IRC | 15:05 | |
Hurrian | there shouldve been a flag in CAL to indicate whether lock is ON or OFF | 15:06 |
Hurrian | uhh, like the Symbian phones | 15:06 |
DocScrutinizer | Hurrian: mhm | 15:06 |
*** FIQ has joined #maemo | 15:06 | |

DocScrutinizer | so what they probably do is set a flag on both rootfs (there it's known to be in gconf) and on eMMC (there unknown yet), and if any of both is set, then ask for lockcode if it's not the default 12345 | 15:08 |

jonwil | Any ideas how I can debug what Findmine might be doing or why its suddenly failing? | 16:02 |
Termana | and yes, they got TSG approval to use the name | 16:02 |

Termana | Back just before the N900 got released, even though I knew it was coming, I brought an N810. When the N900 got released I thought I could contain myself | 16:03 |

*** andre__ has joined #maemo | 16:05 | |
Choom | you can always sell your old new phone and buy a genuinely new one | 16:06 |
Choom | some people seem to want to own as many n900 as they can put their hands on here | 16:06 |
Termana | But if you buy an N9 | 16:06 |
jonwil | well I have no interest in buying a N9 | 16:06 |
Termana | Your only allowed to get it in black | 16:07 |
Termana | ;) | 16:07 |
jonwil | since I specifically bought the N900 because of the physical keyboard | 16:07 |
Choom | not like the n900 had many colors to choose from | 16:07 |
jonwil | And the N950 isn't likely to be something I can obtain here in Australia with an Australian warranty that I can get fixed at the local Nokia Care | 16:08 |
Termana | jonwil, no N950 will come with any warranty, since that is the devkit | 16:08 |
Choom | that's not for public consumption either | 16:08 |
Termana | The N9 will come in Australia, with Nokia Care here | 16:08 |
an0therb0x | is the alien dalvik application available for the N900 ? | 16:08 |
edheldil | I have bought my n900 in May, for ~ 150$. Since I expect the n9/n950 will/would be close to 1000$ here, no much offset in selling n900 for n9 | 16:08 |
jonwil | but I dont want an N9 | 16:08 |
jonwil | so I have no option but to keep my N900 as the N950 is not likely to be available to me | 16:09 |
kerio | the n9 is horrible | 16:09 |
Termana | The N950 is only available to developers, but the N9 will be available in Australia | 16:09 |
kerio | i don't know wtf was nokia thinking | 16:10 |
Termana | what exactly are you defining as "not like to be _available to me_" | 16:10 |
Termana | likely* | 16:10 |
kerio | the only hope is the fact that they did design the n950, and making 5 units is going to be a waste | 16:10 |
Choom | they were and are thinking about a phone for human beings looking for a phone and not a pocket linux box | 16:10 |
kerio | Choom: well they thought wrong, because nobody will buy it for that purpose | 16:11 |
Choom | I will | 16:11 |
kerio | because for normal phones there's android and the iphone | 16:11 |
Choom | and many iphone users have demonstrated interest in it | 16:11 |
kerio | anyway, they're evidently capable of making n950s | 16:11 |
kerio | why won't they sell me one | 16:11 |
Macer | i want a pocket linux box heh | 16:12 |
Termana | kerio, manufacturing/carrier issues | 16:12 |
Choom | I do expect the N9 to sell a lot better than the N900 | 16:12 |
kerio | carrier issues? :| | 16:12 |
Termana | Also | 16:12 |
Macer | i am sure there is a pretty big market for that | 16:12 |
kerio | i want to buy it from nokia | 16:12 |
Termana | They have designed the N9 for both MeeGo and WP7 | 16:12 |
Macer | i don't want a qwertyless n9 :( | 16:12 |
Macer | and i sure in hell dont want winmob | 16:12 |
kerio | Macer: you mean you don't want a qwertyless nit | 16:13 |
Termana | That's why they are selling the N9, because they can mass produce them for both markets | 16:13 |
kerio | the n9 is qwertyless | 16:13 |
*** idont has joined #maemo | 16:13 | |
Macer | kerio: nope. phone too | 16:13 |
Macer | i know it is | 16:13 |
kerio | well, yeah | 16:13 |
kerio | nit/phone, like the n900 | 16:13 |
Macer | which is why i hope they release the n950 to the masses | 16:13 |
*** buntfalke has quit IRC | 16:13 | |
Macer | kerio: well. i would consider it more of a laptop in my pocket | 16:13 |
an0therb0x | Nokia is very puzzling , why would they tie themselves down to a single OS, if an individual is an adherent Nokia fan and is interested in trying applications of functions available on Android or WinOS you are not forced to move away from Nokia | 16:13 |
Macer | but whatever :) | 16:13 |
petterw | they've said they won't pretty clearly | 16:14 |
kerio | an0therb0x: because elop | 16:14 |
kirma | everything elop has been doing lately, especially after revealing N9 has pointed towards him trying to kill all interest on the device, though. | 16:14 |
an0therb0x | why no make great devices that runs Android WinOS and Meego | 16:14 |
*** buntfalke has joined #maemo | 16:14 | |
Macer | petterw: they said the n950 will be released to devs | 16:14 |
kirma | next he could announce that all developers are fired before the device is coming to consumers | 16:14 |
Choom | an0therb0x: exclusivity agreements | 16:14 |
Macer | meego without a qwerty is retarded if it has xterm :) | 16:14 |
petterw | Macer: that's not "to the masses" | 16:14 |
kerio | Macer: and meego without xterm is retarded | 16:14 |
Macer | kirma: i can see that | 16:15 |
Termana | Macer, xterm is not included by default on the n9. You can install it though | 16:15 |
Choom | though I don't think wp7 is going to power the budget phones | 16:15 |
Macer | Termana: omg wtf? | 16:15 |
kerio | Termana: and how can you operate it? | 16:15 |
an0therb0x | Choom: Samsung , HTC makes devices for Android and WinOS , why not Nokia ? | 16:15 |
Macer | with the vkb? | 16:15 |
kerio | with a virtual keyboard taking half of the screen away? | 16:15 |
Termana | kerio, wtf do you mean | 16:15 |
Macer | :) | 16:15 |
kerio | the n900 can barely display 79x25 | 16:15 |
Macer | or a bt keyboard | 16:15 |
kerio | and that's going fullscreen with no toolbar | 16:16 |
nid0 | theres a question about a BT keyboard though | 16:16 |
nid0 | DOES an n9 support them? | 16:16 |
Choom | an0therb0x: they might be trying to find a place in the new phone market | 16:16 |
nid0 | because the current spec list doesnt include the hid profile | 16:16 |
*** kiddy56842 has joined #maemo | 16:17 | |
Choom | nid0: there's no reason to believe it won't | 16:17 |
nid0 | well, the spec list listing all the bluetooth profiles it supports, and not having hid on the list, would be a reason. | 16:18 |
an0therb0x | oh well hope the N950 is available to the public because I like Maemo/Meego and the physical keyboard , btw I tried Meego 1.99 on the N900 it comes with firefox | 16:18 |
* ShadowJK has 133x27, not fullscreen. N900 | 16:18 | |
ShadowJK | Choom, dude, experience tells us that if obvious feature is not listed, it's probably missing | 16:19 |
Choom | it's a software issue | 16:19 |
ShadowJK | well of course it is. | 16:19 |
Choom | it's not like the FM transmitter, which you can not fix | 16:19 |
Choom | it's more like MMS on the N900, which you can | 16:19 |
*** MadViking has quit IRC | 16:20 | |
Choom | that's assuming it really isn't supported | 16:20 |
Termana | ShadowJK, that's not entirely true | 16:20 |
Termana | Wasn't like on the N800 or something there was something hidden | 16:20 |
Termana | IIRC | 16:20 |
ShadowJK | eh? | 16:21 |
ShadowJK | N800 supported bluetooth keyboards. N810 too. On N900 you need hacking | 16:22 |
Termana | No, I'm simply saying that there was a feature on I pretty sure it was the N800, that was not listed but was later discovered | 16:22 |
Termana | I'm pretty* | 16:23 |
nid0 | interesting that the n9 apparently is actually going to ship with swype though | 16:23 |
ShadowJK | are you sure that's swype, and not you, or someone else, confusing it with swipe? | 16:23 |
nid0 | if theres confusion, its on nokia's spec list | 16:24 |
*** an0therb0x has left #maemo | 16:24 | |
nid0 | under "software platform" | 16:24 |

MoonTiger | thats impossible | 17:42 |

ShadowJK | it's python AND qt :) | 17:42 |
MoonTiger | with no power the lcd goes dark | 17:42 |
tommis | hmm | 17:42 |
ShadowJK | MoonTiger, actually the LCD goes slowly white, and the backlight dies | 17:42 |
tommis | haha | 17:42 |
MohammadAG | ShadowJK, Python and PyQt actually :p | 17:42 |
tommis | great success | 17:43 |
MoonTiger | i mean khweeteur sure looks nice and is a damn sight more powerful than i am going to write but 27mb?? | 17:43 |
MoonTiger | ShadowJK, without paower an lcd goes dark .... no power = no "on" switches | 17:43 |
Termana | Gees | 17:43 |
Termana | Did the N9 suddenly roll in a bunch of turd lickers? | 17:44 |
MoonTiger | Termana, ? | 17:44 |
Termana | /ignore #maemo | 17:45 |
ShadowJK | MoonTiger, it's actually one of the ways you can tell if your N900 has bad battery contacts, if it goes white just before getting entirely black (because backlight also went away) | 17:45 |
MoonTiger | ahhhhhhh | 17:45 |
MoonTiger | ShadowJK, but thats n900 specific and it will go dark without paower | 17:45 |
Termana | MoonTiger, it's quite obvious you have not used an N810 | 17:45 |
MoonTiger | just it might do something else for a few seconds before going dark | 17:45 |
MoonTiger | Termana, i have an n810 | 17:46 |
MoonTiger | thanks | 17:46 |
MoonTiger | i wrote software for it | 17:46 |
MoonTiger | thanks | 17:46 |
MoonTiger | next | 17:46 |
Termana | Pull the fucking battery out of it while it's stuck on the bootloader dipshit | 17:46 |
MoonTiger | mine didnt get stuck on the bootloader so i cant | 17:46 |
MoonTiger | dipshit | 17:46 |
Termana | Then stop talking about things that you have no clue about | 17:47 |
MoonTiger | and if you have managed to create an lcd that retains an image after having no power you should file for a nobel prize | 17:47 |
ShadowJK | Actually my SmartQ 7 does it too. It has sysfs nodes exposing the power controls for lcd and backlight. When just lcd power is cut, it fades to white. When it "properly" switches off screen, the software coordinates painting the screen black, switching off backlight, switching off lcd | 17:47 |
MoonTiger | how can it be "white" with no power?? | 17:48 |
ShadowJK | it's probably the default state :-) | 17:48 |
MoonTiger | but white is the generating of light | 17:48 |
MoonTiger | black is the absence of light | 17:48 |
MoonTiger | no power = no light | 17:49 |
MoonTiger | what am i missing? | 17:49 |
hiemanshu | intelligence | 17:49 |
MoonTiger | possily | 17:49 |
MoonTiger | +b | 17:49 |
MoonTiger | typing skills for sure | 17:49 |
ShadowJK | backlight is on. The LCD normally either passes or blocks light by using electrical current to make crystals align in a certain direction polarizing the light. If the crystals naturally pass light through with no power applied, it'll look white | 17:50 |
Choom | I think the N900's default is black | 17:50 |
MoonTiger | from the reflected light? | 17:50 |
ShadowJK | also from the dying backlight | 17:51 |
ShadowJK | it has bigger power buffer | 17:51 |
MoonTiger | the dying backlight yes of course | 17:51 |
MoonTiger | but when that has gone | 17:51 |
hiemanshu | you know the crystals dont exactly change the state as soon the power is cut | 17:51 |
MoonTiger | yes of course | 17:51 |
ShadowJK | and on SmartQ7 I can turn lcd off and keep backlight on :) | 17:51 |
MoonTiger | thats why i said when it has *no* power | 17:51 |
hiemanshu | so the front layer allows the light to pass | 17:52 |
hiemanshu | and since there is no backlight, its not bright white | 17:52 |
MoonTiger | but pass from where? | 17:52 |
MoonTiger | ahhhh ok | 17:52 |
hiemanshu | you know how LCDs work? | 17:52 |
*** unixSnob has joined #maemo | 17:52 | |
MoonTiger | yes | 17:52 |
MoonTiger | well i think so | 17:52 |
ShadowJK | Anyway, google admitted on Earth Day that "turning out the lights" on google.com frontpage (they gave it black background) actually wasted more power, because it takes more power to display black on lcd than to display white :P | 17:52 |

MoonTiger | liquid crystal between 2 sheets of plastic that either block or allow light | 17:53 |
Choom | ShadowJK: that depends on the LCD | 17:53 |
*** c2pLaY has quit IRC | 17:53 | |
MoonTiger | so there are black and white lcds? | 17:53 |
Choom | yes, of course | 17:53 |
MoonTiger | not "black and white" as in monochrome | 17:53 |
hiemanshu | black means no light is being passed, white means all light is being passed | 17:53 |
MoonTiger | i mean black lcds and white lcds | 17:53 |
Choom | yes | 17:54 |
MoonTiger | but where does the light "pass" from if it has no power? | 17:54 |
*** Necc has quit IRC | 17:54 | |
SpeedEvil | transflection. | 17:54 |
MoonTiger | ok so reflected light | 17:55 |
Choom | if the crystals in the active layer display a parallel alignment to the polarizing filter in the active layer, light passes through by default | 17:55 |
ShadowJK | My watch is actually hybrid, the numbers appear black under reflected light, but the backlight has inverted polarisation compared to reflected light, so when i activate backlight the background appears black and the numbers white :) | 17:55 |
Termana | MoonTiger, when this is all done, you can have some of my ice cream. It's cookies and cream, it'll make you feel better. | 17:55 |

hiemanshu | khertan: let me link you the full video | 17:56 |
MoonTiger | hiemanshu, ok if you willstart being more polite | 17:56 |
Choom | if you turn the polarizing filter 90 degrees the crystals in the active filter will align perpendicularly to the polarizing filter thus preventing light from passing by default | 17:56 |

jonwil | The #1 reason being that you need to pay Microsoft a yearly fee just to be able to write your own software for it. | 18:01 |

*** hannesw has joined #maemo | 18:02 | |

lcuk | jonwil, many people will happily use microsoft software since the rest of their business infrastructure is windows too | 18:02 |
nid0 | fwiw, the android market does have a registration fee for publishers | 18:02 |
jonwil | At least with Android you can develop, sell, distribute and install software outside of Google and its marketplace | 18:03 |
lcuk | you can on any device | 18:03 |
hiemanshu | but needing a 1ghz processor with 512M of RAM just to run stuff decently? | 18:03 |
hiemanshu | lcuk: iPhone? | 18:04 |
jonwil | Both the iPhone and Windows Phone 7 are locked down | 18:04 |
lcuk | hiemanshu, if that is the current stock coming out of the factories, why shouldn't it be used? | 18:04 |
jonwil | and you need to pay money just to develop for them | 18:04 |
GAN900 | nid0, apparently. See qgil's blog comments. | 18:04 |

Seablade | So question, has anyone found a source for a replacement logic board for the n900 yet, seeing as how I doubt I can get my hands on the n950 anytime soon, I figured I would try to repair mine one more time, GSM chip seems ot be fried, just get communications error, blah blah, please reboot on every boot of the device | 19:44 |
*** piggz has joined #maemo | 19:45 | |
jonwil | Only way would be to either buy another N900 or to find someone with a broken N900 (e.g. broken screen) and salvage the logic board from there | 19:46 |
DocScrutinizer | Seablade: resolder the chips | 19:46 |
Seablade | DocScrutinizerNot completely certain my soldering chops are up to it, but that is my last resort yes | 19:46 |

nid0 | I wonder if theyll change the authorised replacement from n8's to n9's when theyre out | 19:48 |
*** Wamanuz3 has joined #maemo | 19:48 | |
jonwil | In both cases when my N900 broke, it was replaced rather than repaired | 19:49 |
DocScrutinizer | so if Nokia can't swap boards, I doubt you can find one | 19:49 |
*** BCMM has quit IRC | 19:49 | |
jonwil | with a new N900 | 19:49 |
jonwil | once was for the USB | 19:49 |
jonwil | and the other was for a busted flexboard | 19:49 |
*** arno0ob has quit IRC | 19:49 | |
Seablade | Yea unfortunatly in the US with the single year warranty, otherwise I would have sent it back | 19:50 |
DocScrutinizer | busted flexboard normally gets repaired by swapping the flexboard | 19:50 |
jonwil | in my case they seemed to replace it rather than repair | 19:50 |
jonwil | or thats what the info I got from nokia indicated | 19:50 |
jonwil | in the case of the busted USB they fixed it very quickly | 19:50 |
jonwil | and just said that a busted USB = automatic replacement no matter what | 19:51 |
Seablade | Yea busted USB hasn't hit me but that I am fairly confident in my abilities to resolder, Surface mount chips on the other hand not so confident | 19:51 |
jonwil | Since that happened, I am now VERY careful with the N900 and if I have the charger plugged in, I make sure the phone is somewhere where its impossible for it to be knocked to the ground | 19:52 |
Seablade | I do a fair amount of sodlering, but the smallest I get is miniature plugs and jack typically for wireless mics and the like, this is a bit smaller;) | 19:52 |

javispedro | "the best from fremantle " looks like if you want to port hildon ;) | 21:06 |
javispedro | but maybe that's because I'm still heavily biased =) | 21:07 |
javispedro | the meego forum thread about n9devkit also proves how little devices there are | 21:08 |
Seablade | So I know this is going to be a loaded question, but is there likely to be another way other than the Maemo Community Program to get a hold of the n950? I actually do some coding myself and wouldn't mind coding for Harmattan/Meego on a few things but my time is limited right now so I don't feel quite appropriate doing a loan style program like that | 21:08 |
javispedro | you see jaffa saying "hopefully oldtimers are considered" and a few posts after it someone saying "hopefully newbies will be considered" | 21:08 |

javispedro | MohammadAG: you are an old timer by now | 21:10 |
javispedro | really :D | 21:11 |
divan_ | javispedro, yep, but what if I don't want to move to sbox only because I need one small package? | 21:11 |
Seablade | MoonTiger: A real shame to be honest | 21:12 |
javispedro | divan_: extract the package with dpkg -x, and make dpkg-buildpackage ignore build deps (see manpage) | 21:12 |
javispedro | divan_: but this only really works for very very small packages... if it has any scripts, or symlinks, or sth.... go sbox. | 21:12 |
MoonTiger | Seablade, wel if you look at nokia's history it really shouldn't be a surprise that they manage to completely f**k up the child of the N900 too eh? | 21:13 |

divan_ | And of course, there is not way to change dpkg-buildpackage arguments within QtCreator. Erhh.. | 21:17 |
Seablade | MoonTiger: True. Personally I don't mind developing for them, but it is really the preference for the form factor that would make me want to get the 950, without a hardware keyboard the n9 has a large strike against it compared to the n900 for me, and in which case I may as well just stick with the n900 | 21:18 |
divan_ | s:not way:no way: | 21:18 |
MoonTiger | Seablade, im sticking with my N900 as well | 21:18 |
kaari | same for me, if cannot get n950 | 21:18 |
jonwil | as am I | 21:18 |
MoonTiger | if a N950 type device did launch with comparable specs to the N9 plus a hardware keyboard i would buy one | 21:18 |
Seablade | MoonTiger: My only thing is I have been holding off on replacing the n900 I am trying to fix till they announced the n950, and now that they did and that noone is going to be able to get it it means I gotta make a decision sadly | 21:19 |
MoonTiger | N900s are cheaper these days | 21:19 |
MoonTiger | but i hear you | 21:19 |
MoonTiger | i think this is actually part of the plan to kill of maemo from nokia | 21:20 |
Seablade | MoonTiger: Cheaper yes, but $350 for a used one when I am trying to close on a house is VERY tough | 21:20 |
MoonTiger | to completely fragment and fracture the community | 21:20 |
Seablade | MoonTiger: While I am not accepting that yet, I am not counting it out either | 21:20 |
ShadowJK | kaari: you'd be better off linking a post with patch instead of binary kernel modules that don't show what changes have been made and dont work on meego | 21:20 |
MoonTiger | Seablade, i got one in as-new condition from the US recently | 21:21 |
MoonTiger | for $300 | 21:21 |
MoonTiger | roughly 200 GBP | 21:21 |
*** piggz has quit IRC | 21:21 | |
Seablade | MoonTiger: Yea, I can get them in good condition used from Amazon, which is probably what I will have to do as I can cash in credit card rewards to cut down the price significantly... of course if the decision comes down to new phone or working fridge in the house I am buying, guess which one I am choosing:) | 21:21 |

MoonTiger | dont know that one ... what causes it? | 21:25 |
Seablade | MoonTiger: Most commonly seems to be a hardware failure, a broken connection somewhere | 21:26 |
* MoonTiger sighs | 21:26 | |
MoonTiger | that sux | 21:26 |
Seablade | MoonTiger: But apparently from some people is is software, just not for most and not for me | 21:26 |

ShadowJK | kaari, I just pasted this in the meego-arm channel, and the reply was "If you're seeing a bug, please make a bugreport" | 22:16 |
ShadowJK | I don't have a class 10 card though, so I can't test MeeGo on class 10. | 22:16 |
kaari | jeps, i try it. already sing-up to meego community, but kind of newbie to make bugreport. but i will try. this concern too maemo. | 22:18 |
ShadowJK | There will be no official fix for Maemo. | 22:18 |
kaari | with my class 4 card everythings works fine, but with class10 i get read-only state. starnge | 22:19 |
kaari | dont need | 22:19 |
kaari | jeps, i should be in meego irc channel to tell it, infact im. but first time they didnt really take me serious. | 22:20 |
ShadowJK | What brand is your card? | 22:21 |
kaari | kingston | 22:21 |
ShadowJK | ah. | 22:21 |
kaari | and have been contcact with support and used several tools for the card | 22:21 |
kaari | the card is working | 22:22 |
ShadowJK | kingston cards are broken by design :-) | 22:22 |
ShadowJK | and pretty random. Not even kingston themselves know what components were used | 22:22 |

kaari | somthing like 5 months ago | 22:27 |
kaari | is there chromium for maemo? | 22:27 |
kpoman | yep, quite old | 22:27 |
kaari | then use opera :( | 22:27 |
kpoman | kaari: I wanna try chromium. I am quite impressed right now with it | 22:28 |
kpoman | I used to use firefox, but on n900 it sucks. | 22:28 |
kpoman | and now on desktop, also, chromium is much faster than ff | 22:28 |
kaari | dont you like default webbrowser | 22:29 |
kpoman | and version 5 of ff is not cool | 22:29 |
nox- | merlin1991, i guess the n900 camera app doesnt allow for manual white balancing? | 22:29 |
* ShadowJK uses opera on n900 | 22:29 | |
kpoman | microb ? not much | 22:29 |
kpoman | it is good yes | 22:29 |
merlin1991 | nox-: it does but for some reason that didn't work out either | 22:29 |

*** swc|666 has joined #maemo | 22:33 | |

kpoman | jacekowski: newer one doesnt compile ? | 22:33 |
jacekowski | kpoman: since opera was released i stopped all work on chromium | 22:33 |
cehteh | and run as realtime process | 22:33 |
jacekowski | kpoman: opera is much better | 22:33 |
kpoman | jacekowski: it is good yes | 22:34 |

kpoman | jacekowski: where do I add that line ? | 22:34 |
cehteh | also integrating dbus messages as bme does and configureable low level battery warning | 22:34 |
cehteh | but no time now | 22:34 |
ShadowJK | cehteh, actually haven't had any single event where not being realtime has had an impact :-) | 22:34 |
jacekowski | kpoman: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 22:35 |
kpoman | jacekowski: let me see | 22:35 |
jacekowski | kpoman: create file in that folder | 22:35 |
jacekowski | kpoman: and add that line there | 22:35 |
ShadowJK | On N8x0 it would be dangerous, because without software control the hardware runs amok | 22:35 |
cehteh | ShadowJK: yes its more a gimmick .. under extreme load it may save you from not pinging the watchdog | 22:35 |
kpoman | jacekowski: ok cool | 22:35 |
jacekowski | kpoman: only other program in that repository is program reseting lock code to 12345 | 22:35 |
ShadowJK | Yeah it's never missed a ping so far | 22:35 |
cehteh | it sleeps most of the time so there is no danger | 22:35 |
jacekowski | kpoman: if you forget it | 22:36 |
ShadowJK | probably because it's tiny :P | 22:36 |
cehteh | well tried it under real extreme load with much things swapped out? | 22:36 |
ShadowJK | and busybox is tiny too :) | 22:36 |
ShadowJK | been up to about 400M swap use | 22:36 |
cehteh | prolly the device already prioritizes root processes with cgroups .. but better safe than sorry | 22:36 |
jacekowski | cehteh: no it doesnt | 22:36 |
ShadowJK | mostly other maemo kernel bugs kill the device first though | 22:36 |
cehteh | huh you have /bin/bash on top not busybox | 22:36 |
kaari | Nobody, knows how to get touch in with n950, like James Bond | 22:36 |
kpoman | jacekowski: ok ! | 22:36 |
jacekowski | cehteh: i don't think there is support for cgroups in stock kernel | 22:36 |
ShadowJK | there is | 22:37 |
ShadowJK | /syspart | 22:37 |
cehteh | jacekowski: iirc ohmd uses cgroups | 22:37 |
kpoman | jacekowski: do you know of the most complete list of repos ? | 22:37 |
jacekowski | kpoman: nope | 22:37 |
kpoman | for example I had missed that one yours | 22:37 |
cehteh | (or whats the profile watching thing) | 22:37 |
kpoman | np | 22:37 |
cehteh | the thing which uses prolog under the hood to tune the device | 22:37 |
ShadowJK | ohmd | 22:38 |
cehteh | yes | 22:38 |
kpoman | jacekowski: did you have many steps for compiling it ? apart from the scratchbox | 22:38 |
cehteh | so that uses cgroups | 22:38 |
cehteh | ShadowJK: if you want we can make a list of 'todo' someday for what a better bme needs apart from the charger control (dbus messages etc) | 22:39 |
jacekowski | kpoman: quite a bit | 22:39 |
cehteh | maybe DocScrutinizer will be there then | 22:39 |

kpoman | ah didnt know that | 22:41 |
jacekowski | kpoman: it is something else | 22:41 |
DocScrutinizer | cehteh: an API in /sys | 22:41 |
kpoman | ok | 22:41 |
cehteh | see backlog .. most notably generating bme compatible dbus message, but having more freedom for configuration | 22:41 |
DocScrutinizer | https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/28/494 | 22:41 |
cehteh | DocScrutinizer: no kernel changes :P | 22:41 |
DocScrutinizer | then forget it | 22:41 |
jacekowski | kpoman: i'm not even sure it's webkit based | 22:41 |
cehteh | DocScrutinizer: well i want to have it useable on stock kernel too | 22:42 |
cehteh | and i dont have the time and a spare device to burn :) | 22:42 |
jacekowski | kpoman: only work i've done on maemo port of it was to make it compile and work, and then fix some most serious bugs | 22:42 |
DocScrutinizer | well then you need a kernel module working on stock kernel, that you can load for supporting proper battery anagement, and rmmod for using old bme crap | 22:43 |
kpoman | jacekowski: ok... | 22:43 |
jacekowski | kpoman: but N900 is bit low on memory for anything like that | 22:43 |
cehteh | DocScrutinizer: yeah may work .. but then kernel development is more pita than userland | 22:43 |
DocScrutinizer | cehteh: I'm happy to help out with auditing and specs | 22:43 |
cehteh | and it still needs a userland daemon for the events | 22:44 |
DocScrutinizer | yes | 22:44 |
DocScrutinizer | that's be a good design | 22:44 |
cehteh | i am pragmatic here :) | 22:44 |
kpoman | jacekowski: do you think it would be interesting to re-port it now that it is so fast ? :p | 22:44 |
cehteh | i just thinking about adding the missing bits to charge21.sh | 22:44 |
jacekowski | kpoman: opera is faster | 22:45 |
*** ggoebel has quit IRC | 22:45 | |
jacekowski | kpoman: and chrome uses now even more memory | 22:45 |
kpoman | kpoman: ok :s | 22:45 |
jacekowski | kpoman: and that is major problem on n900 | 22:45 |
DocScrutinizer | pragmatic? the forget about it, it's not worth the effort, if you want to do botch that can't go next rev even, not to mention upstream | 22:45 |
jacekowski | kpoman: on n9 it may work | 22:45 |
jacekowski | kpoman: but it's not released yet | 22:45 |
cehteh | has the n9 n950 the same bme crap? | 22:45 |
jacekowski | dunno yet | 22:46 |
jacekowski | possibly | 22:46 |
cehteh | i mean, i dont care for upstream i want something working for me now | 22:46 |
jacekowski | bme was with us for few years | 22:46 |
jacekowski | BME has it's roots in rapuyama | 22:46 |
DocScrutinizer | cehteh: probably yes | 22:46 |
cehteh | is the n9 kernel completely open? | 22:46 |
cehteh | no one knows :P | 22:46 |
cehteh | would be awesome if its even a vanilla kernel .. but *cough* .. i have high doubts | 22:47 |
DocScrutinizer | I'd think it's completely open as usual | 22:47 |
cehteh | haha and lets see how old it will be .. 2.6.32? ... | 22:47 |
DocScrutinizer | we had no closed kernel bits on fremantle either | 22:48 |
DocScrutinizer | yep, exactly | 22:48 |
DocScrutinizer | 2.6.32 I heard | 22:48 |
cehteh | the n8xx kernels and before had some closed parts people told me | 22:48 |
DocScrutinizer | not in kernel, not for fremantle | 22:48 |
cehteh | not freemantle but before | 22:49 |
DocScrutinizer | they managed to implement all the blobs in userland | 22:49 |
jacekowski | cehteh: 2.6.32 is good version | 22:49 |
DocScrutinizer | and there are quite a few blobs still | 22:49 |
cehteh | .28 was good too | 22:49 |
cehteh | but dated :) as .32 will be when the device comes out | 22:49 |
*** ggoebel has joined #maemo | 22:50 | |
* DocScrutinizer adores dated kernels | 22:50 | |
cehteh | well doesnt it use btrfs? | 22:50 |
cehteh | btrfs isnt even in 3.0 stable | 22:50 |
jacekowski | cehteh: older kernels tend to be faster | 22:50 |
DocScrutinizer | you finally got to know each sysfs path by heart, etc etc | 22:50 |

DocScrutinizer | a properly maintaned aged kernel is way better than bleeding edge | 22:51 |
*** xkr47 has quit IRC | 22:51 | |
cehteh | yes | 22:51 |
*** xkr47 has joined #maemo | 22:51 | |
cehteh | but .. well .. some things eventually improve in newer kernels | 22:51 |
DocScrutinizer | yep | 22:52 |
DocScrutinizer | rarely seen anything *essetial* though, esp nothing that couldn't get backported | 22:52 |
cehteh | and with this devices and nokias politics there is no much an kernel upgrade path | 22:52 |
cehteh | backporting things over about 10 kernel versions would be pita | 22:52 |
*** trbs has quit IRC | 22:53 | |
DocScrutinizer | doesn't matter. What really sucks is when your userland blows chunks on the new stuff | 22:53 |
cehteh | yes | 22:53 |
DocScrutinizer | I know boxes that happily run 4 year old kernels | 22:54 |
cehteh | my server :P | 22:54 |
* cehteh runs | 22:54 | |
DocScrutinizer | it's not like kernels actually bitrot, you just have to keep them up to date with current threats | 22:55 |
DocScrutinizer | and patches to fix those | 22:55 |
DocScrutinizer | you're starting to be screwed when you want to install acme-app-Vtomorow++ which uses all that ultra new cute stuff | 22:56 |

DocScrutinizer | of course you also can copy the contacts.db file, but that's hard to read out on your PC I guess | 23:01 |
DocScrutinizer | you could copy it back any time though | 23:01 |
