DocScrutinizer05 | I'm not so much interested in phone though. I had palm pilot and one of the things I missed from it was it enabling me to get rid of my phone. That's how phone is related to handheld computing for me, and N900 is not a phone | 00:08 |

SpeedEvil | or too long wire | 03:47 |
SpeedEvil | or thin | 03:47 |
DocScrutinizer05 | hmm, hardly | 03:47 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I think down to 3.9V it won't complain | 03:47 |
DocScrutinizer05 | means 1.1V have to get lost on thin wire | 03:47 |
SpeedEvil | I've seen very bad cables | 03:48 |
nox- | why 100mA and not 500? | 03:48 |
SpeedEvil | I should measure them | 03:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | 100 is "free for everybody" | 03:48 |
nox- | mh | 03:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | 500 is max usb ENUM may negotiate | 03:48 |
nox- | and even if it got that it will only charge with 100? | 03:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | D+/- short extends that to <virtually unlimited> | 03:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | nox-: chargers have no CPU to negotiate anything via ENUM | 03:49 |
nox- | :/ | 03:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so any PC is better for charhing than a wallcharger missing D+/- short | 03:50 |

* DocScrutinizer05 just ponders to 'sell' smart charger script (via OVI, whatever), that allows user to set max USB current, monitors USB voltage, tries auto-adjust, and delivers proper meaningful logs. And of course works with any kind of charger, no matter if D+/- short or not | 04:17 | |

Macer | i had the same problem with my n900 | 10:38 |
Macer | although i don't use it as a phone on the cell network anymore.. but it did the same | 10:38 |
* Macer sheds a tear | 10:38 | |
ZogG_laptop | at least it works | 10:39 |
Macer | i suppose | 10:41 |
Macer | but to use it outside wifi range i have to tether it to my lumia 900 heh | 10:41 |
Macer | that's just redundant | 10:41 |
Macer | i look like a guy with a mistress phone | 10:41 |
ZogG_laptop | Macer, that's why it died | 10:41 |
Macer | or a dope dealer | 10:41 |
Macer | ? | 10:41 |
ZogG_laptop | it got AIDS from Lumia hooker | 10:41 |
Macer | it started pre lumia ;) | 10:42 |
ZogG_laptop | pre lumia? | 10:42 |
Macer | so it really got aids from nokia :-P | 10:42 |
ZogG_laptop | i got confused | 10:42 |
Macer | my other one did too | 10:42 |
Macer | the penis fell off :-P | 10:42 |
ZogG_laptop | :( | 10:42 |
Macer | n900 is not known for its build quality as far as its modem dying and the usb ports falling off | 10:43 |
Macer | lumia 900 is just an n9 with wp on it isn't it? | 10:43 |
Macer | i was being scolded here because i said the lumia isn't that bad at all :) | 10:44 |
* Macer hides | 10:44 | |
Vibe | it's bad, cos wp isn't not open source.. | 10:45 |
Vibe | -not | 10:45 |
Gh0sty | no its not | 10:45 |
Gh0sty | it uses another Soc and so on | 10:45 |
Gh0sty | nokia is loosing money over it in stead of gaining if they would have sold the n9 | 10:46 |
Macer | are they? | 10:46 |
Macer | well.. i guess that's true considering att pretty much paid me to buy it | 10:46 |
*** eMHa has joined #maemo | 10:46 | |

Macer | i guess they make it up with their overpriced service but still :) | 10:47 |
Macer | but honestly... wp7 is not bad at all | 10:48 |
Macer | and i'm willing to bet the sdk for it and win8 is probably light years ahead of the garbage that was released for maemo | 10:49 |
Macer | albiet the OS is closed but at least the dev tools are all there and updated | 10:49 |
*** piggz has joined #maemo | 10:49 | |

Macer | they just charge you $100 for an extra 8G and 16G :) | 10:52 |
Macer | genius | 10:52 |
Macer | either way... if the new lumia has win8 i might get it... although i'd love to have a win8 phone with a qwerty | 10:53 |
Macer | if nokia makes one with a qwerty i'm sold :) | 10:53 |

Macer | i'd still rather have a qwerty for sms ;) | 10:57 |
Macer | the vkb takes up too much screen real estate | 10:57 |
ZogG_laptop | it's all about UI | 10:57 |
Macer | using ssh with the vkb is a pain as well | 10:57 |
*** valerius has joined #maemo | 10:58 | |
Macer | ZogG_laptop: i dunno about that. you need the vkb to be at least a decent size for fingers | 10:58 |
Macer | and a phone screen is usually small enough as it is | 10:58 |
ZogG_laptop | and i saw how people use swype... as well i liked bb10 predictable keyboard :P | 10:58 |
ZogG_laptop | Macer, it's okay for me, i use n9 as phone on daily bases and it's good enuf for twitter/sms/wazapp :P | 10:59 |
*** Dibblah has joined #maemo | 11:00 | |
Macer | lol. so is the lumia 900 | 11:01 |
Macer | the vkb orks ok for those things i suppose | 11:01 |
Macer | but the qwerty would be great for ssh | 11:01 |
Macer | also. i'm hoping win8 on mobile devices doesn't do the same windows mobile murdering of background apps | 11:01 |
Macer | which made its way to wp7 | 11:01 |
Macer | it runs like an iphone where nothing is allowed to keep running in the background | 11:01 |
Macer | probably the one major advantage the n9 has | 11:01 |
ZogG_laptop | Macer, do you have bsod screen ? | 11:03 |
edheldil | Macer: have your modem died at once and for all? My phone works after a reboot, but all of a sudden (usually while I carry in my pocket) it started to disconnect the SIM and report "communication problem" | 11:03 |
edheldil | Macer: I would like if I (user) could configure which apps get hibernated when minimized and which do not. THAT would be the best, IMO | 11:05 |
*** ArGGu^^ has quit IRC | 11:07 | |
Macer | edheldil: yes | 11:07 |
Macer | same problem | 11:07 |
Macer | edheldil: i honestly don't have an n9 and have never used a meego device so i couldn't say | 11:08 |
Macer | i just know that the n9 works similar to maemo in how it manages background vs battery life | 11:08 |

derpmode | nope | 11:22 |
derpmode | it's shit software like most n900 apps | 11:22 |
derpmode | I just want to find the location of my beloved photo | 11:22 |
kerio | somewhere in MyDocs probably | 11:24 |
*** florian has quit IRC | 11:24 | |
derpmode | looked | 11:24 |
kerio | hdrcapture is basically a less flexible fcam with hdr | 11:24 |
derpmode | i didn't know about fcam at the time | 11:24 |
kerio | same dudes | 11:25 |
*** florian has joined #maemo | 11:25 | |
kerio | hdrcapture and lowlight are specialized versions of fcamera that do weirder shit | 11:25 |
edheldil | derpmode: might be also your expansion card | 11:27 |
derpmode | edheldil: looked. Any idea how to find it? | 11:27 |
derpmode | I hope it isn't somewhere in / | 11:27 |
derpmode | or even worse, didn't get stored | 11:28 |
*** noch has joined #maemo | 11:31 | |
edheldil | no, I do not use it, but I vaguely remember finding lowlight's pics on the extension card (though ... half of my pictures is there as well, without apparent rhyme or reason). | 11:32 |
*** jrocha has joined #maemo | 11:32 | |

noch | I use this source on Fremantle http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Using_Connectivity_Components/Using_Location_API#Complete_example | 11:34 |
noch | and it exits in one or two seconds | 11:34 |
noch | it holds a second during g_main_loop_run(loop); | 11:35 |
noch | and then does g_object_unref and exits | 11:35 |
noch | may it be that I have some strange settings on a device? | 11:35 |
noch | however gpsrecorder and fourcircle work well | 11:35 |
noch | it tries to turn GPS on | 11:36 |
noch | the satellite appears and starts to blink | 11:36 |

DocScrutinizer05 | sorry, never used HDR | 14:03 |
*** hazchemix has quit IRC | 14:04 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | shouldn't there be some selector to pick location where to store pictures? at least toggle between uSD and MyDocs? like in any decent photo app | 14:04 |
derpmode | I guess it didn't store my photos! | 14:04 |
derpmode | There isn't one. I checked all the obvious locations manually | 14:05 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: hdrcapture is just a tiny proof-of-concept to showcase the fcam API | 14:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | mhm | 14:05 |
kerio | it does make some cute pictures, though | 14:05 |
kerio | derpmode: did you wait for the processing? | 14:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so no clue about FQN to any such picture? | 14:06 |

kerio | .jpg | 14:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's no *Full* Qualified Name | 14:06 |
derpmode | kerio: yeah, and then I pushed back. And in the Help it says pushing back "saves" them | 14:07 |
kerio | /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/HDR_*.jpg | 14:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | something like /home/user/MyDocs/.images/HDR_2012_09_02_1428.foo is | 14:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah :-) | 14:07 |

edheldil | DocScrutinizer05: does pnatd displaying nothing on AT command mean that it's rapuyama at fault, or can it still be a bad SIM contact? | 14:47 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no, that's clearly rapuyama or the OMAP serial hw interface being down then | 14:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | NB there's a way for OMAP to power down rapuyama afaik | 14:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so modem being non-responsive doesn't mean is must be broken | 14:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | e.g. in airplane mode I might figure it wouldn't be powered (haven't checked that though) | 14:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | edheldil: anyway a broken sim contact shouldn't affect AT interface | 14:50 |
*** ferulo has joined #maemo | 14:52 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | no, even in offline mode modem/pnatd answers AT with OK | 14:53 |
edheldil | thank you. Strange that it appears when the phone is in pocket - temperature or mechanical stress related, perhaps | 14:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | probably | 14:53 |
edheldil | oh well ... time to get a new second hand one :( | 14:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | checking syslog should show anything modem related when something fails (there are modem reboots known when modem locks up) | 14:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there's a cmt watchdog afaik, that will try to reboot the modem when it doesn't behave. This should show up in syslog | 14:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | try "*#06#" in dialer! | 14:56 |
edheldil | I will look the next time it happens. One or twice pnatd wrote something about endpoint, but I haven't copied down the message | 14:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | should show your IMEI. If it doesn't I'd say you got a serious hw problem. If it does I couldn't promise your modem is ok though | 14:56 |
edheldil | dialer is that app for dialing *# codes, right? | 14:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I assume you did a full reflash already, to rule out any sw related obscure problems | 14:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | dialer is that app where you dial numbers and call people | 14:58 |
*** hazchemix has joined #maemo | 14:58 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | ;-) | 14:59 |
edheldil | ah :). No, not reflash YET :/ | 14:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for user pnatd trows error "pipe endpoint allocation: operation not permitted" | 14:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you need root for onatd | 15:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | pnatd even | 15:00 |
edheldil | well, could have been a case of missing root privs during a previous invocation | 15:00 |

fredddiiii | Being able to use Exchange with Google Sync requires you to grab liburl3 from extras-devel. I am prepared to do this, but is this a clean way? And will libcurl3 properly keep updating (eventually)? | 16:51 |
freemangordon | fredddiiii: yep, next CSSU-testing will contain updated libcurl3 | 16:51 |
fredddiiii | So eventually that libcurl3 will make it into stable? | 16:51 |
fredddiiii | And the grabbed version will update? | 16:52 |
fredddiiii | Properly? | 16:52 |
fredddiiii | Or will dependencies break or something? | 16:52 |
freemangordon | I hope it will out by the end of the week | 16:52 |
*** hazchemix has quit IRC | 16:52 | |
freemangordon | don't see a reason why not | 16:52 |
fredddiiii | Just trying to make sure. | 16:52 |
fredddiiii | So I will not end up with out-dated, dependency broken possible security risk prone packages. | 16:52 |
*** hazchemix has joined #maemo | 16:52 | |
fredddiiii | Because I try to fix something. =( | 16:52 |
fredddiiii | freemangordon, any ETA on when that updated libcurl3 might make it into stable? | 16:53 |
freemangordon | fredddiiii: hard to say, maybe in a month after being in -testing, that is the usual testing period | 16:53 |
fredddiiii | I think I will grab it from extras-devel then, if there is not any possible risk of grabbing it from that repository, and disabling that repository again afterwards. | 16:54 |
freemangordon | fredddiiii: as long a you don't apt-get upgrade you should be safe :D | 16:57 |

*** aloril has joined #maemo | 17:58 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | when this shitty thing tells hildon to show a notifier "recaller: recording since nn:nn:nn" every 30s, and then FORGETS TO REVOKE this instruction :-((( | 17:59 |
kerio | i stopped using recaller when i noticed that the automatic recording didn't always stop | 18:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it just pretends, often | 18:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | actually recaller stopped recording, 16h ago | 18:02 |
kerio | meh, it's not like it was exactly legal anyway | 18:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | hmm? | 18:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ;-P | 18:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you're not recording your calls, are you? X-P | 18:03 |

*** e-yes has quit IRC | 18:04 | |
kerio | when you're talking to someone on the phone, you have to accept the risk that the other one is recording the conversation | 18:04 |
kerio | it makes sense, really | 18:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | recaller completely freaks out when destination for audio files is not writable for any reason (full, nonexistent, whatever) | 18:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | however yesterday (16h ago) I recoded via microphone, manually. And I stopped recording manually | 18:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and obviously since then it pesters me with this notification | 18:06 |
kerio | lol | 18:06 |
kerio | killall -9 recaller | 18:06 |
kerio | besides, it does weird shit with audio routes anyway | 18:07 |
Woody14619 | I like having recaller running. Sometimes I'll make an appointment, record it, but miss something important (like where it's at). Being able to re-play a conversation is nice. | 18:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | nope, it doesn't record | 18:08 |
*** flo_lap has joined #maemo | 18:09 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | I found out what happened (I think) | 18:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | 4096M 04. Sep 05:36 Rec_20120904_021320-053628.wav | 18:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I forgot to stop it correctly | 18:09 |
kerio | hahaha | 18:09 |
kerio | neat | 18:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | eventually it hit 4GB barrier and stopped recording but failed to stop the notifier | 18:09 |
Woody14619 | And FYI: recording conversations and it's legality is highly based on local laws. Even then, the legality is usually more a question of not if it's "legal", but if said recording can be used in legal procedings. :) | 18:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | indeed | 18:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | again, what I stated above: recaller completely freaks out when destination for audio files is not writable for any reason (full, nonexistent, whatever) | 18:11 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's consistently missing to reset the notifier when stopping recording due to write error on file | 18:11 |
Woody14619 | Yeah.. I turned that off ages ago. Don't need notifications anyway. | 18:12 |
Woody14619 | Though it can be annoying on the off times when it forgets to stop recording when you hang up. ;) | 18:12 |

DocScrutinizer05 | again, what I stated above: recaller completely freaks out when destination for audio files is not writable for any reason (full, nonexistent, whatever) | 18:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's consistently missing to reset the notifier when stopping recording due to write error on file | 18:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and I got NFC how to convince hildon-notification-daemon to stop that shit now | 18:15 |
Woody14619 | Interesting cssu logs btw. Lol. 3 kicks by 2 people in under an hour? LOL. Not undeserved... But then... | 18:15 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: killall recaller | 18:15 |
Woody14619 | killall recaller should do it Doc. | 18:15 |
*** zap has quit IRC | 18:15 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | indeed | 18:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ? | 18:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I don't think so | 18:16 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there's not even a process recaller | 18:16 |
Woody14619 | Is it all dbus-script based now? | 18:16 |
merlin1991 | Woody14619: 3 kicks? | 18:16 |
merlin1991 | I only remember 1 | 18:16 |
Woody14619 | Doc booted him twice before you arrived. | 18:17 |
merlin1991 | oh :D | 18:17 |
vi_ | Woody14619: who? | 18:17 |
vi_ | DocScrutinizer05: recaller is a python script. | 18:17 |
Woody14619 | vi_: Who's the only person to merrit being booted here in the past 3 years? | 18:17 |
vi_ | -_- | 18:18 |
kerio | vi_: who lives in a pineapple under the sea? | 18:18 |
Woody14619 | vi_: That's like asking "Who's that fat man, in the red outfit, at the mall in December?" | 18:19 |

DocScrutinizer05 | Woody14619: good point | 18:22 |

Woody14619 | well, it lives in /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/recaller.py | 18:22 |

DocScrutinizer05 | Woody14619: :nod: | 18:29 |
Woody14619 | doc: Had the same issue once with it... just re-add the widget. | 18:29 |

kerio | seriously though, don't reboot :( | 18:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | why? | 18:30 |
kerio | you can't lose your uptime! | 18:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | meh, this one has a pretty shitty uptime right now | 18:31 |
kerio | ah | 18:31 |
kerio | ...why didn't you reboot earlier then? | 18:31 |
Woody14619 | uptime is for naught if it's up and not doing what you want. | 18:31 |
DocScrutinizer05 | 17:31 4 Tage 5:18 an, 0 Benutzer, Durchschnittslast: 0,19, 0,42, 0,36 | 18:31 |
kerio | Woody14619: uptime is for uptime challenges | 18:31 |
Woody14619 | uptime, for the sake of up-time is somewhat silly in my book. | 18:32 |
chem|st | DocScrutinizer05: and something like hildon-desktop/xxx.py will not get a home on my device | 18:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | hehe | 18:32 |
kerio | Woody14619: but doc has a n900 with like 180 days of uptime! | 18:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I can see your rationale | 18:32 |
vi_ | I once swapped a PCI card on a live debian system just to keep my uptime. | 18:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | t900:~# uptime | 18:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | 17:43:32 up 157 days, 18:39, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 | 18:33 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: do you use it? | 18:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no sim | 18:33 |
kerio | or is it just sitting there, collecting dust and time? | 18:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's my reference and devel-device | 18:33 |
Woody14619 | I see uptime as a stability thing. Before I reboot a device (non-windows) I generally look at it's uptime to see how long it was up. It mean's it's gone that long without me needing to nurse it. | 18:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | see debate about camera-ui in other chan | 18:34 |
kerio | which PR is it? | 18:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | err, 1.3? | 18:34 |
kerio | 1.3.1 i hope :) | 18:34 |
Woody14619 | Devel devices, and things with regular/needed/wanted updates are different, IMHO. ;) | 18:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | prolly not | 18:34 |
chem|st | vi_: do that with a windows server^^ | 18:35 |
Woody14619 | Sigh... and now I have to go read a ton of mail. Why do people work days I have off? Any why do they always seem to need me only on those days? | 18:36 |
kerio | hm, does MfE work fine with google contacts if you upgrade libcurl? | 18:37 |
vi_ | mfe works for no man. | 18:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | wow, the recaller icon got permanently nuked off my screen | 18:38 |
vi_ | DocScrutinizer05: Just re-add the widget ffs. | 18:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, ffs | 18:38 |
vi_ | It will appear in EXACTLY the same spot as before. | 18:38 |
*** Hoolxi has joined #maemo | 18:38 | |
* DocScrutinizer05 just wonders what's going on there | 18:38 | |
vi_ | If you kill hildon-home, sometimes all your widgets will disappear. | 18:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | but *why* | 18:39 |
vi_ | Just add them 1 at a time, they will go to their appropriate place. | 18:39 |
vi_ | DocScrutinizer05: I do not know. | 18:39 |
vi_ | DocScrutinizer05: The gconf info referring to the widget screen+x+y location is still there. | 18:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | weird shit | 18:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | some self-healing facility in HD? | 18:40 |
vi_ | It is like a small part of gconf/hildon config gets reset to defaults. | 18:40 |
vi_ | DocScrutinizer05: yes 'self healing' or 'shit coding' as scientists are now calling it. | 18:40 |

*** tanty has quit IRC | 18:47 | |
kerio | haha | 18:47 |
vi_ | Woody14619: because he never reboots, duh. | 18:47 |
kerio | Woody14619: because <DocScrutinizer05> 17:43:32 up 157 days, 18:39, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 | 18:48 |
Woody14619 | I figured that out in the first month of owning my N900, because the PR1.0 facebook widget (and notifier, and the e-mail widget, all from Nokia) would crash the desktop and wind up in that state. ;) | 18:48 |
kerio | hehehe | 18:48 |
kerio | anyway, MfE still doesn't work, sadly :c | 18:48 |
kerio | which means that i have to keep my computer working | 18:48 |
Woody14619 | I even filed a bug on it! ;) | 18:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | well, maybe I knew about it, but forgot since I never ran into it last 18 months or so | 18:49 |
Woody14619 | In what way does MfE not work? (On N9 or N900?) | 18:49 |
Woody14619 | doc: true. :) | 18:49 |

*** Hoolxi has quit IRC | 18:49 | |
kerio | what do you use it for? | 18:50 |
kerio | also, i specifically meant wrt google sync | 18:50 |
Woody14619 | Ah... I heard Google turned that off on their side. (eg, specifically broke it to not work). I talk to a real Exchange 2008 server our IT group here at work insists we all use. | 18:51 |
vi_ | mfe barely works with itself. | 18:52 |
freemangordon | we have a problem with mfe and it is called libcurl3 | 18:53 |
vi_ | I have a problem with mfe in that MSFT can suck my nuts. | 18:54 |
ShadowJK | kerio; is this about needing to upgrade libcurl from -devel? | 18:55 |

DocScrutinizer05 | hm? | 19:32 |
kerio | tadzik's problem | 19:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | hmm, hard to really tell from that picture | 19:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if FPC is actually broken or messed up, you need complete swap | 19:34 |
*** GNUton-BNC has quit IRC | 19:34 | |
tadzik | FPC == flex cable? | 19:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 19:34 |
tadzik | I dismantled the thing because the screen didn't work most of the time when I used the slider | 19:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | flexible printed circuit, flex plastic cable, flex plastic connector, whaever | 19:34 |
*** GNUton-BNC has joined #maemo | 19:34 | |
tadzik | it took a few seconds of sliding/unsliding to make it show up | 19:34 |
tadzik | I see | 19:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's not only the "cable" but actually the complete "mainboard" of screen half | 19:35 |
tadzik | uh | 19:35 |
DocScrutinizer05 | with front-cam, ALS, earpiece, whatnot else | 19:35 |
vi_ | test EAX,EAX compares registers EAX with EAX? | 19:36 |
vi_ | WTF? | 19:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | tadzik: http://www.gultek.eu/mobile-phone-spare-parts/flex-ribbon/nokia/n900.html | 19:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | HTH | 19:38 |
fizzie | vi_: Common way to set flags (usually the zero flag) according to what's in eax, at least. As in, "call foo; test eax, eax; jz bar" for "if (foo() == 0) goto bar;" | 19:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no "thanks"? :-/ | 19:39 |
tadzik | DocScrutinizer05: thanks, I'll look around for it. Generally it's something home-replacable, given a lot of care and steady hands? | 19:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, definitely | 19:39 |
tadzik | great. Thank you | 19:39 |
tadzik | DocScrutinizer05: one more thing, do you know if there's anything particularly tricky with putting the screen back with the keyboard? It keeps popping of | 19:44 |
tadzik | and all the videos I see cover dissasembly, not assembly | 19:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | err, nothing particularly tricky known, except maybe the latches at/under kbd-frame | 19:45 |
tadzik | so just press it until it clicks? | 19:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | the most tricky part for sure is plugging FPC to mainboard | 19:46 |
tadzik | I managed to do that, yes | 19:46 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there's nothing that clicks | 19:46 |
DocScrutinizer05 | upper half with slide mech should fall into place easily | 19:47 |
tadzik | there seems to be a metal thing that supposedly goes below the keyboard near the letters ERT | 19:47 |
DocScrutinizer05 | check location center upper end of kbd | 19:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there is some latch | 19:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yep, exactly | 19:48 |
tadzik | so the trick is to somehow slide it under? | 19:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that might be a tad tricky and need a little(!) force to snap into place | 19:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes | 19:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you may push and bend a tiny bit, in the end it will fit | 19:49 |

DocScrutinizer05 | also loosening the kbd frame (2 pcs torx-screw) helps a lot | 19:59 |
tadzik | I thought it's back there, but when I slid it open it appeared to be over the keys :) | 19:59 |
tadzik | huh. It know works _a lot_ better | 20:00 |
tadzik | for now, surely, but it's at least on in both positions | 20:00 |

DocScrutinizer05 | eew | 20:05 |
tadzik | I'd rather not screw the screws to tightly, I don't have any spare ones | 20:05 |
tadzik | okay, a little tighter was enough | 20:05 |
tadzik | sorry for spamming :) | 20:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if they break, then spare ones are your least problem | 20:06 |
tadzik | unless they get their thread become a nice, round circle | 20:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | however you shouldn't be too careful and gentle on tightening them, | 20:06 |
*** trx has joined #maemo | 20:06 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | as long as it seems to 'move' something, you want to tighten them further | 20:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I might find the torque suggested for those, but I'd just say consider it was a wooden match you don't want to break | 20:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | or: trun the screwdriver between thumb and index digit | 20:09 |
tadzik | I now find it hard to resist the urge to slide it back and forth to see if it's working better, I'll better leave it alone as much as possible until my cable gets there | 20:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you shouldn't apply more than moderate force with this "gesture" | 20:09 |
tadzik | right | 20:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | by no means turn the screwdriver "from your wrist" | 20:10 |
tadzik | haha, it's far too small for that | 20:11 |
tadzik | it's about the size of the n900 stylus | 20:11 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, just turn it by sliding your thumb and index fingertips against it | 20:12 |
tadzik | yeah, it seems to be okay now | 20:12 |

GeneralAntilles | tadzik, indeed. | 21:11 |
freemangordon | GeneralAntilles: though I think it is too little too late for Jolla. I hope I am wrong | 21:11 |

tadzik | wondering if I'll see that in the next 50 years ;) | 21:12 |
GeneralAntilles | But the unique delusions about the definitions of open source and Linux that infest Android fanboys are particularly infuriating. | 21:12 |
GeneralAntilles | freemangordon, well, given we have no clear idea of what it is Jolla is bringing to market, it's a little early to be deciding. ;) | 21:12 |
tadzik | oh, you mean the "but I'm using an open platform"? | 21:12 |

Lava_Croft | android has half-multitasking | 21:40 |
Lava_Croft | but its a bitch to even switch between or close tasks | 21:40 |
Lava_Croft | it reminds me of N8 symbian^3 multitasking | 21:41 |
Lava_Croft | cumbersome | 21:41 |
*** xmlich02 has quit IRC | 21:41 | |
Lava_Croft | you have a special button for running tasks, but to even switch between or close a task you have to open this menu | 21:41 |
Lava_Croft | closing a running app, in my experience, comes down to minimizing it and then opening the list of open apps | 21:42 |
Lava_Croft | the app doesnt show up if its the current app | 21:42 |
Lava_Croft | its all very wtf to someone whose first 'smartphone' experience was Maemo5 | 21:42 |
Lava_Croft | or to anyone who has used windows or linux in the past 15+ years | 21:42 |
Lava_Croft | its a clear-cut case of typical android stuff | 21:43 |
Lava_Croft | someone went "oh shit! we forgot this" | 21:43 |
Lava_Croft | and then they hacked it in | 21:43 |
Lava_Croft | not too strange if you consider android's roots | 21:43 |
kerio | Lava_Croft: well, it's the same thing as iphone multitasking | 21:45 |
Lava_Croft | no its not exactly | 21:45 |
kerio | to close, you have to background, enter the task list, hold on the application until shit starts jiggling, and then tap close | 21:45 |
Lava_Croft | iphone has no multitasking at all | 21:45 |
kerio | and the current app doesn't appear in the task list | 21:45 |
Lava_Croft | its just a list of recently used apps | 21:46 |
kerio | whatever, it has backgrounding | 21:46 |
Lava_Croft | (that nobody ever uses) | 21:46 |
*** jrocha has quit IRC | 21:46 | |
Lava_Croft | android's multitasking is different | 21:46 |
kerio | iphone backgrounding actually exists | 21:46 |
kerio | you've got the notification system and all sorts of shit to reduce as much as possible the load on the system | 21:46 |
kerio | it's all *fucking dumb*, mind you | 21:46 |
kerio | but it works-ish | 21:47 |
Lava_Croft | its different from android's multitasking | 21:47 |
Lava_Croft | we have both iphone and nexus7 here | 21:47 |
Lava_Croft | iphone has way more limited 'multitasking' | 21:48 |

timeless | DocScrutinizer05: the best i found was O2 | 22:09 |

DocScrutinizer05 | O2 indeed has quite a number of roaming partners | 22:09 |
timeless | (original number was 50 GBP, but i need to think in USD) | 22:09 |
timeless | my general assumption is that a major carrier will have sufficient roaming partners | 22:10 |

DocScrutinizer05 | there've been poor lusers who got a 5 digit bill after their holiday | 22:16 |
DocScrutinizer05 | obviously most of them had contracts, asking for €€€€€ on prepaid is kinda pointless, though occasionally they do that as well | 22:18 |

*** FredrIQ has joined #maemo | 22:20 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | recently EU comission introduced a regulation/law to limit roaming fees to a somewhat reasonable level in Europe | 22:22 |
tadzik | yeah, it's even below 1€ per megabyte for me :) | 22:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | great! | 22:22 |
DocScrutinizer05 | could easily be ten times as much | 22:23 |
tadzik | it used to be, methinks | 22:23 |
DocScrutinizer05 | :nod: | 22:23 |
tadzik | shame that not everywhere you can buy a decent local sim | 22:24 |

jacekowski | DocScrutinizer05: and that's over satelite | 22:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 22:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's why I suggested thuraya | 22:24 |
jacekowski | inmarsat coverage is much better | 22:25 |
jacekowski | though nothing beats iridium | 22:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | not much bandwidth but reasonable prices even via sat, so roaming mustn't be more pricey | 22:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, iridium is awesome, technically | 22:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | inmarsat is coming from commercial to mass market | 22:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | anyway I'm not sure inmarsat does any roaming at all | 22:29 |
DocScrutinizer05 | they not even got any dual mode phones afaik | 22:29 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I might be wrong | 22:29 |
jacekowski | no need for roaming if they have most of planet surface covered | 22:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sure, but then you might not want to go out into the rain to call your grannie | 22:31 |
jacekowski | why would you want a sat phone when you are in place that has gsm coverage | 22:31 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sat phones are pretty much like GPS: no indoor coverage | 22:31 |
jacekowski | i think that's the main reason why sat phone prices have dropped down recently a lot | 22:31 |
jacekowski | because every single shithole has gsm now | 22:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | jacekowski: it seems thuraya (and iridium?) have a dual mode policy to use same account and hardware via GSM where available and only use sat when in the outback | 22:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | err northpole/sahara (since even outback is completely covered afaik) | 22:33 |
*** konelix_ has quit IRC | 22:34 | |
jacekowski | i'm not sure if thuraya has north pole coverage | 22:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | they don't | 22:34 |
*** konelix_ has joined #maemo | 22:34 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | only sahara ;-P | 22:34 |
jacekowski | well, most of sahara probably has gsm coverage | 22:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | fuuuuck | 22:34 |
jacekowski | hmm, no | 22:35 |
DocScrutinizer05 | actually I think nowadays sat phones are just a nice-to-have for desaster management | 22:35 |
M4rtinK | BTW, Iridium covers both poles :) | 22:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | when there's no electricity and no connectivity and no radio/TV in whole europe due to some mega-blackout, you might be happy with a thuraya, given your friends also have those ;-) | 22:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | iridium covers 100% | 22:37 |
M4rtinK | the Amundsen-Scot south pole station is using a bank of Iridium modems for (slow) Internet access, IIRC | 22:37 |
M4rtinK | on a related note, there is an upgraded version of Iridium in the works - Iridium NEXT | 22:38 |

DocScrutinizer05 | seems so | 22:39 |
kerio | can i use my n900 to access that network? | 22:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no | 22:39 |
kerio | shame | 22:39 |
kerio | does it provide internet? | 22:39 |
M4rtinK | with a serial or USB modem... :) | 22:39 |
kerio | and how quick would it be? | 22:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | well, you might, for iridium there's those 'cradles' that convert normal GSM into iridium phone | 22:39 |
M4rtinK | if you can burn DVDs over USB, why not :) | 22:40 |
kerio | like, how quick are satellite connections in general? | 22:41 |
