DocScrutinizer~maemo-multiboot00:06
infobotwell, maemo-multiboot is deprecated, and a horrible hack.  PROBLEMS WITH NITDROID/MULTIBOOT? reflash rootfs&kernel aka COMBINED00:06
*** ale152 has quit IRC00:06
DocScrutinizerasdffdsa: you probably mean uBoot-based dualboot00:06
DocScrutinizerwhich is *not* deprecated00:07
DocScrutinizerheard it just works00:07
DocScrutinizerunless you install multiboot00:07
*** tackat has joined #maemo00:07
asdffdsaDocScrutinizer, yes i meand this ^00:07

*** vi___ has joined #maemo00:10
vi___hey bros00:10
vi___I have a serious confusion here00:10
vi___how TF can only half y keymap get fcd up?00:10
vi___Is there a program for checking which keystroke is entered?00:11
vi___anyone?00:12
vi___somthing like xev00:12
*** BCMM has joined #maemo00:12
*** Tofe has left #maemo00:16
mgedminon maemo 5? you can apt-get install xev00:16
mgedminfrom the tools repo, iirc00:16
vi___yeah but it doesnt work00:17
mgedmin(better do that over ssh)00:17
vi___my keymap still works00:17
vi___except for 1 key that has changed00:17
vi___which is completley bananas00:17
vi___I used have TAB mapped to alt+enter00:17
DocScrutinizer~tell Cor-Ai about usbfix00:18
vi___now it only works when I press ctrl+alt+enter00:18
vi___everything else is the same and te keymap is the same00:18
vi___WTF00:18
vi___WTF F00:18
vi___if anyone has any suggestions please dont hold back00:20
mgedminxkb is not exactly made of ponies and chocolate00:20
mgedminwhat's wrong with using ctrl-i instead of tab?00:21
mgedminwait, I misunderstood, I think00:21
mgedminyou want the tab key to send alt-enter00:21
Jooles_yeah, I had fun with my desktop where shift-backspace somehow got mapped to ctrl-alt-backspace. That was less than amusing00:21
* mgedmin remembers the cries when people complained about ctrl-alt-backspace being disabled by default00:22
vi___wut?00:22
vi___this is on the n90000:22
Jooles_it's still xkb and it's wierdness00:22
vi___For a long time I have had tab mapped to alt(blue button)+return.00:23
vi___it is fast00:23
vi___I like it00:23
vi___annd now NOTHING has changed except I now have to press ctrl+alt+enter to get tab00:23
vi___WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK00:23
vi___tab is on level 200:24
vi___I also have esc mapped to alt+backspace00:24
vi___IT STILL WORKS FINE00:24
mgedminblue button is not alt, it's fn00:26
vi___ key <BKSP> { type[Group1] = "PC_FN_LEVEL2", symbols[Group1] = [ BackSpace, Escape] };     key <RTRN> { type[Group1] = "PC_FN_LEVEL2", symbols[Group1] = [ KP_Enter, Tab ] };00:26
vi___here are two lines that have worked fine for aeons00:27
mgedminhmm00:27
vi___the top allows backspace to be esc pressed with blue00:27
vi___the bottom allows tab when return pressed with blue00:27
vi___this implies my modifiers are not broken00:28
vi___how can I check the keycode for a given key?00:28
mgedminwhat if instead of type[Group1] = "PC_FN_LEVEL2" you used type = "PC_FN_LEVEL2"?00:28
vi___I am not keen to alter xkb map until I know what keycode my return key is giving00:29
mgedminto look at your current *full* xkb configuration, use xkbcomp :0 - |less00:29
mgedminxev will give you the (numerical) keycode00:29
mgedminthe aforementioned xkbcomp will have a xkb_keycodes section00:29
mgedminin it you will see the name to keycode mapping00:30
mgedmin<RTRN> is keycode 3600:30
mgedminI wonder if the key is <RTRN> or <KPEN>...00:30
mgedminalso [Group1]...00:31
*** arno0ob has quit IRC00:31
mgedminmaybe some modifier is toggled and now you're using Group2?00:31
Jooles_i believe i've seen people elsewhere bemoan the lack of <KPEN> on the n900...00:31
asdffdsadoes anyone know how to get the Video-out running?00:31
mgedminI don't remember how multiple keyboard layouts/languages are implemented on the n90000:31
mgedminasdffdsa, plug in cable, it should Just Work00:31
*** setanta has quit IRC00:32
mgedminiirc there's a control panel applet where you can choose PAL/NTSC00:32
asdffdsacant get a signal00:32
mgedminthis on Composite input?00:32
* mgedmin shrugs00:32
mgedmincheck if the cable is snugly plugged in?00:32
*** DrSound has joined #maemo00:33
vi___mgedmin: then how would the line with esc mapped to backspace also in group1 still work?00:34
mgedmingood point00:34
vi___is there a program that will show me a keycode when I press a bitton?00:34
vi___\^button00:34
mgedminI did not understand the problem you had with xev00:35
mgedminif you run xev from an ssh connection into your n900, it should work fine00:35
*** sq-one has quit IRC00:36
*** badcloud has quit IRC00:36
mgedmin(if you run it in a terminal directly, there can be problems -- iirc it takes the entire screen and you've no way to close it or something)00:36
*** piggz has quit IRC00:37
DocScrutinizermgedmin: >KPEN> - age old bug00:37
mgedminwhat, exactly, is the bug about?00:37
DocScrutinizerthe bug is "N900 CR always creates KP-Enter00:38
DocScrutinizer"00:38
mgedminI was irritated by the enter key entering <esc>OM and breaking screen over ssh or some such nonsense, but this seems like something unrelated to physical keycode mapping00:38
mgedminyou saw vi___'s keymap -- <RTRN> was mapped to KP_Enter00:39
DocScrutinizersee00:39
DocScrutinizer~jr-tools00:39
DocScrutinizermeh00:39
DocScrutinizer~jrtools00:39
infobotmethinks jrtools is http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools00:39
mgedminif it were mapped to Return, it'd be different00:39
mgedmin(what genius decided to use Enter for the D-Pad select button and map it to toggle-VKB by default?)00:39
DocScrutinizer~jr-tools is <reply>see jrtools00:39

asdffdsai cant fix the SVideo output of the n90000:48
asdffdsadid i have to reboot after changing from pal to ntsc?00:48
vi___xev does not capture any keystrokes00:51
vi___except for blue+return00:51
vi___and shift+return00:51
vi___and they both return the same info00:51
vi___further more now it is shift+blue that makes return do its thing00:52
vi___WTF is going on here00:52
vi___this is insane00:52
vi___how can I check what my current keymap is?00:52
luke-jrwhat's the fastest SD "class" that N900 supports again?00:53
*** andre__ has quit IRC00:53
vi___none, SD class is a myth00:54
*** lardman|home has quit IRC00:55
asdffdsa? any idea with the S-Video Signal?00:55
Jooles_not true, but genuine sd cards are rare. Put a class 6 stamp on a class 2, hike up the price, most people won't know00:55
Jooles_heh, you should see some of the really fake ones I've seen00:55
vi___well in that case you cannot go wrong with a class 4 sandisk00:56
vi___only if you buy a real one00:56
vi___do not buy a class 1000:56
vi___they are utter shit00:56
vi___and will rape your data00:56
Jooles_256mb cards set to loop over themselves so they appear as 4gb to the os and obviously don't work00:56

Jooles_i work in a second hand phone/games/dvd store and do a lot of the hardware testing00:58
vi___luke-jr: buy from a reputable retailer and prepare to pay the full price.00:58
vi___there are NO cheap SD cards00:58
Jooles_in fairness most cards are real, just make sure you trust the store if you buy second hand or over the net00:59
Jooles_yeah, cheap flash memory sucks. I have a usb stick that has to be reformatted after every 10 writes or so else it starts to corrupt everything01:00

luke-jrasdffdsa: I think it defaults to PAL01:15
*** eichi has joined #maemo01:15
asdffdsai tryed PAL & NTSC but i cant recive a signal01:15
Jooles_looking on the maemo forums someone says they've got a class 10 card in an n900 but it runs at about 4MB (class 4)01:15
*** jonwil has joined #maemo01:16
*** eijk has quit IRC01:16
Jooles_luke-jr, that looks like a nice card but I suspect the phone won't run it at that speed01:16
luke-jrJooles_: well, that's why I asked :p01:17
luke-jrbut Class 4 is only like $5 less01:17
luke-jrand Class 6 is *more* :p01:17
luke-jrI already know from experience that MicroSD is faster than the internal SSD though ;)01:17
Jooles_well in that case just get the class 10 and it'll work fast if you ever put it in a faster device :)01:18
Jooles_heh, yeah. I just moved my apt cache to the internal sd card and it's incredibly slow01:18
DocScrutinizerasdffdsa: you have to follow correct plugging sequence01:19
asdffdsalol01:19
DocScrutinizerwut?01:19
asdffdsawhich sequence?01:19
DocScrutinizerfirst connect cable to TV, then plug in to N90001:19
DocScrutinizeralso make sure your yellow plug is plugged to a receptacle named either CVBS or Video-in01:20
DocScrutinizerdon't mix this with any of the other possible plugs like component etc01:20
DocScrutinizerthen obviously you also need to select correct input on your TV saet01:21
DocScrutinizerset*01:21
*** _nicolai_ has joined #maemo01:21
*** BCMM has quit IRC01:21
DocScrutinizerasdffdsa: switching PAL/NTSC will max change color vs b&w plus some geometry error01:21
DocScrutinizerno way you get the thing started from black screen by meddling with PAL/NTSC selection01:22
asdffdsai only get a blank screen01:22
vi___asdffdsa: then you are doing it wrong.01:23
DocScrutinizerthen you eeither didn't follow plugging sequence, or selected wrong input, or used wrong input01:23
DocScrutinizerdo you at least get audio?01:23
asdffdsaoh ^01:24
asdffdsa^^01:24
*** arvut has quit IRC01:24
asdffdsahm....S-Video / AV01:24
DocScrutinizertell me! you used the white plug for video, right?01:24
asdffdsathat shouldnt happen to me -.-01:24
DocScrutinizertzztzztzz01:24
asdffdsano used the wrong channel on tv -.-01:25
DocScrutinizerI decided to ignore that when you first said SVideo01:25
Jooles_epic fail :)01:25
Jooles_least you got it figured out now01:25
*** eichi has quit IRC01:27
asdffdsadamn....realy epic fail -.-01:27
*** nid0 has quit IRC01:27
*** wazd has quit IRC01:27
*** liar has quit IRC01:29
DocScrutinizerepic fail was if you plugged it into sth like HDMI and the video signal triggered the digital remote control channel and made your HDD-recorder erase your 5TB of ancient DrWho records01:31
*** beford has joined #maemo01:32
Jooles_i dunno... that might be beyond fail01:33
DocScrutinizerthen in a panic you pulled the plug and this crashed the recorder's hw and meanwhile you tripped over the cable to N900, it dropped and you stepped on it and broke your foot01:33
*** nid0 has joined #maemo01:33
DocScrutinizerTHAT was an *epic* fail01:33
DocScrutinizerselecting wrong TV in chan is just a mishap01:34
DocScrutinizersorry ;-D01:34
Jooles_Remind me not to help you program your VCR... I can't afford that kind of insurance01:35
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: you actually might be interested in GTA0401:39
luke-jrDocScrutinizer: ?01:39
luke-jrJooles_: I moved my swap to MicroSD01:40
DocScrutinizer(to cure this strange turn of your mind:) I started contributing to the hw design ;-D01:40
*** net-split has joined #maemo01:40
luke-jrJooles_: hmm, some of these reviews are very bad01:41
luke-jrDocScrutinizer: did you add a kb?01:41
DocScrutinizerI'm still struggling with that one :-D01:42
DocScrutinizeroption is already there01:42
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: you know it'S a tad hard to find old GTA02 kbd to revamp for GTA04 ;-D01:43
*** LaoLang_cool has joined #maemo01:44
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: http://projects.goldelico.com/upload/gta04-main/files/GTA04A3-1-complete.pdf   p.88  "Sheet: 16/19 Keypad"01:44
Jooles_luke-jr i didn't read the reviews... personally I'd go to a local photo shop if you want a high spec card. they're also more likely to have a better returns policy. Then again I can't affor that so I buy them from my shop01:46

luke-jrDocScrutinizer: btw, did you hear there's a chance one of the ARM SoC vendors might do free 3D drivers?01:54
*** krau has quit IRC01:54
jonwilwhich vendor is that?01:54
DocScrutinizerI heard rumours on IRC, nothing serious though01:54
luke-jrDocScrutinizer: license on that document is unclear. it says CC-BY-SA, but has an icon for CC-BY-NC-SA01:55
luke-jrjonwil: the one that bought the stuff from AMD IIRC01:55
jonwilis that ARM Mali?01:55
jonwilor is that something different?>01:55
DocScrutinizerthe schematics say "CC-BY-NC-SA"01:56
luke-jrwould be nice to have something GPL-friendly, oh well01:56
luke-jrCC-NC at the very least is non-free01:56
luke-jrkinda defeats the purpose01:56
DocScrutinizerluke-jr: btw I'd say there's no such thing like 3D drivers for ARM01:56
luke-jrI'd argue CC-BY is non-free too fwiw01:56
SpeedEvilGPL doesn't make sense for documents in many cases.01:57
luke-jrSpeedEvil: this is no more or less a document than any software, IMO01:57

luke-jr:P02:00
DocScrutinizerthis device been designed and built by basically 3 guys, one of them paying the whole enterprise from his pocket02:01

mihuHi. I found maemo-examples which show nearly all aspects of N900 application development. That was a great start. However, I now want my application to be able to create these separate "message windows". For example, when the N900 is in suspend, you receive an e-mail and then the device is turned on, then you see this yellow "message window" telling you that a new mail has arrived. . How are these created? I just need some  catch words11:02
*** eMHa_ has joined #maemo11:06
mihuOk, found it. It's in HildonNotification. I was using hildon_notification_helper_show() which would just produce these full-screen banner notifications. I have to use hildon_notification_new() and notify_notification_show() to get what I want.11:06

vi__chem|st: yar, simcard.  You could cut a significant time out of the bootup by moving cell modem switchon to hildon startup as oppose to waiting for it to come up BEFORE even loading hildon.  HOwever this would require that you did not want pin checking otherwise you could use the n900 (but not phone/sim) without entering pin.15:32
vi__currently goes:15:33
vi__boot>xorg>matchbox>5 dots>start GSM modem>ask for pin(if required)>kill 5 dots>kill matchbox>load hildon>etc15:34
vi__It COULD go...15:34

Macerhaha... they haven't even done that in maemo.. let alone gentoo :)20:32
Macerslonopotamus: er.. huh?20:32
Maceri had it running on my n81020:32

Maceri used gentoo for quite a while on PCs too20:32

vi____Macer: +120:33
Macerand not wait 10 years to build20:33
Maceralthough i guess gentoo came off the src fanclub and has bin repos nowadays20:33
vi____gentoo pushes computing from productivity tool into the realm of hobby20:33
Maceragreed20:33
Macerpersonally i think the point of emerge is to seem intelligent with all the scrolling gcc stuff20:34
slonopotamusit's not gentoo fault that software is so bloated today (openoffice, ff, kde, etc)20:34
vi____I do like scrolling text20:34

Macerwhy do i keep thinking the n8x0 had an fm tuner? :)20:39
slonopotamusbecause n800 has one20:39
Maceri actually don't use it anymore becaue it took a 1 story dive and the sliding traks broke20:39
vi____Is the n900 dying from n9 as fast as the n8x0 died when the n900 came along?20:39
Macerthey get caught20:39
Macerlol. no20:39
Macermostly because the n9 costs a child's soul20:40
Macerslonopotamus: ah that's what it is20:40
Maceri forgot they took it out of the n81020:40
slonopotamusvi____: n900 users don't give a shit about n9. because n9 is even more dead-born than n900.20:40

slonopotamuspre-meego mer was dead even before meego20:47

SpeedEvilhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_photography21:43
*** Chewtoy has joined #maemo21:43
SpeedEvilIn addition - if you have a .5 second flash - vs a .01 second flash.21:43
SpeedEvilIf you open the shutter for .5 vs .01 seconds - with the same total light energy - the amount of background light can be much smaller21:43

DocScrutinizerI once calculated a usual 30Ws flash blasts with a real power like several GigaWatt21:48
DocScrutinizeror was it several dozen MegaWatt?21:48
SpeedEvilGigawatt is high21:48
SpeedEvilIt's not _that_ fast.21:49
SpeedEvilIt's an electrolytic cap21:49
DocScrutinizeranyway it's sufficient to hear the photons impact on a cookie box lid21:49
SpeedEvilIt's going to discharge in on the order of milliseconds, not micro.21:49
*** orbiting has joined #maemo21:49

SpeedEvilSound from light is barely plausible - as the ear is _stupidly_ sensitive21:59
DocScrutinizerMacer: yes, you actually hear a "plong" when you flash to a reflective surface thin steel or sth that also makes good sound when you gently knock it21:59
DocScrutinizergenerally called "bahlsen cookie can lid"22:00
SpeedEvilBut 3*10^-7kgms, with a diaphram weighing a gram will move 3*10^-4m/s or so.22:00
GeneralAntillest22:00
SpeedEvilWhich is likely to be quite audible.22:00
SpeedEvilIn a quiet room.22:01
DocScrutinizersure it's not loud22:01
SpeedEvilHowever - thermal deformation of the surface may well be orders of magnitude higher.22:01
SpeedEvilAnd flashes are hot22:01
DocScrutinizerbut easily audible in a quiet room22:01
SpeedEvilI'd want to rule out the bimetalic effect first.22:01
