*** Oppo|n900 has quit IRC01:38
*** rcg has quit IRC01:39
*** net-split has quit IRC01:42
ShapeshifterMh. I want to write a simple server for ytcli that will offload the transcoding off the n900. I can of course use it myself without a problem, but is it unwise to offer it to others considering that it's breaching youtube TOS? I mean, downloading videos on a server, transcoding them and then passing them on01:43
Shapeshifterthe advantage with youtube-dl and all the other tools is that the choice of violating TOS is with the user01:44
ShadowJKdoes youtube TOS ban youtube-dl?01:45
*** smhar has quit IRC01:45
ShapeshifterShadowJK: yes, because it's A) not allowed to 'copy' content from youtube and B) it's only allowed to view the media through means provided by youtube01:45
*** net-split has joined #maemo01:46
ShadowJKSo what's the difference between your software and youtube-dl from that point of view? Or, are you talking about letting other people use your actual server (as in computer, not software)?01:46
Shapeshifterbut they wont go after every used. However if I were to use youtube-dl in a server-side service and users would be using my server, I would be quasi rehosting stuff.01:46
ShapeshifterShadowJK: yes, hardware01:46
ShadowJKah01:46
Shapeshifters/used/user01:47
ShadowJKI thought there was a youtueb fmt that was pretty close to N900 capabilities anyway01:47
*** kthomas_vh has joined #maemo01:47
Shapeshifterit's a pity because all in all, the n900 just sucks at playing youtube videos. It's impossible to play anything without encountering hickups.01:47
ShadowJKI use gpodder to follow a youtube channel, and it downloads and plays it in media player.. I think it's 640x360 maybe01:48
*** drussell has quit IRC01:48
ShapeshifterShadowJK: not really. playing in what? Using microb and the flash plugin, they usually play but will stutter when opening the task manager or doing other stuff. using mplayer, they just randomly stop and you have to press pause twice.01:48

psycho_oreosMacer, I don't know if its small enough for you, it looks very bulky but at the same time it offers plenty more functionality08:09

stevermi took the package off yesterday10:42

crashanddie_No10:48
psycho_oreosalso check your DNS entries as crashanddie_ said, slow DNS servers can also be a huge culprit10:48
crashanddie_"ping 8.8.4.4" means "ping 8.8.4.4"10:48
stevermok10:48
psycho_oreosI personally don't think screwing up aircrack-ng commands can seriously stuff up your wireless chipset. Unless you went around adjusting the TX power levels (maybe, don't even know if that's possible or not)10:49
stevermi have replies10:49
stevermno no adjusting just the usual10:50

stevermremoved the battery11:02
psycho_oreosI don't think restore factory settings would be as much help as a complete reflash of N90011:02
stevermi am trying to avoid reflashing11:03
psycho_oreosrestore factory settings more or less just resets previously set up stuff and maybe hide all the old packages. Though the previously installed packages and what not will still be there11:03
psycho_oreosI'd install bash3 and get host to see if it resolves a few fqdn, it could just be microB playing up11:04

*** Necc has joined #maemo11:11
psycho_oreosand that shouldn't be like that.. normally if your wireless network is WPA encrypted you should get a long key. I am still unsure of the package you said you installed. Wherever it came from, its probably quite poorly made11:11
stevermthe bleeding edge you mean?11:12
psycho_oreosyes11:12
stevermwell i was out of options when i installed it11:13
stevermand for a reason it did me good back then11:13

psycho_oreosCSSU doesn't come in an image format, nor is it officially supported by Nokia. It adds more functionality on top of PR1.3 (so in other words PR1.3 is pretty much a necessity). There are differences from one noticing fixes with modest, improvements on hildon-desktop (now with up to 9 home screens) and osso-camera has more features18:37

jpinxI have just done the apt-get install kernel-power-settings but I am still getting a error about insmod. this is to get masquerading working between my laptop and the gprs on the n90023:00

rtylerhowdy folks, I was wondering if the n900 could be used to tether over bluetooth? I have an Android tablet and android doesn't like the adhoc network from "Mobile Hotspot"23:02

rtylerhmm, on the android device, after pairing it says "paired but not connected" bummer23:28
rtylerthe n900 only lists the OPP profile for the android device too23:28
* rtyler digs some more23:28
jurop88here it works flawlessly23:28
jurop88ubuntu box23:28
jurop88osx box23:28
jurop88winVista slate23:28
rtylerhm23:28
jurop88don't know anything about androids, though23:28
rtylerwas there any additional setup you required other than just pairing them?23:29
jurop88no, at least I don't remember any particular setup or difficulty23:30
jurop88it just worked OOTB23:30
rtylerdrats23:30
rtylerI wonder if this might be fuxord due to the advanced kernel package23:30
jurop88N900 should be not connected to the internet when connecting the outer device23:31
jurop88KP47 here23:31
rtylercorrect, I've got the device disconnected from the data link23:31

rtyleraha, it looks like the DUN profile must not be sent to the android device23:37
rtylerthere are no profiles that show up here: http://www.droid-life.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/bluetooth-xoom8-600x375.png23:37

a-saintpsycho_oreos r you here it's steverm with the weird connection problem on n900 earlier23:39
rtylerjurop88: yeah, looks like there's just no profiles being sent to the tablet23:43
jurop88rtyler: dun profile is correctly recognized by linux and mac osx boxes (and I think vista slate, too)23:45
