pewter_taoyou guys checkout the nexus4?02:01
pewter_taoI'm curious about your guys' secondary uses for the n900 now that it's not a phone for you02:01
ShadowJKnexus4 would be cool with a hwkbd :/02:02
ShadowJKat 550E, I'd rather wait and see if jolla comes with something interesting02:03
ShadowJKmeanwhile I'm still using N90002:03

pewter_taoShadowJK: yeah, I've the same issue w/ no HW keyboards... It'll be my first touch keyboard02:09
pewter_taoI gotta at least try it02:09
pewter_taoShadowJK: any word of jolla?02:09
pewter_taoIt would be nice if they gave us some specific hope02:09
pewter_taoso we could help them popularize and everything02:09
pewter_taothere's also the new ubuntu stuff02:10
pewter_taothey'll be using regular android hardware for the forseeable future, supposedly02:10
*** mvp__ has joined #maemo02:13
jonwilIts a pitty the few phones out there in the market that have hardware keyboards suck in other ways02:15
*** Neutron19 has joined #maemo02:15
ApicYeah02:16
jonwilMotorola has produced a number of GSM Android phones with hardware keyboards02:16
jonwilbut they are all locked down tight and you cant run alternate OSs on them02:16
ShadowJKSony too, but they only put real kbd on their shit-end androids with 320x200 screens etc02:17
*** _rd has quit IRC02:18
jonwilThe HTC 7 pro would be nice if it wasnt for the crappy OS02:18
*** guampa has quit IRC02:20
jonwilI suspect it will be a very long time before any manufacturer produces a phone with a physical keyboard that is anywhere near as good as the N90002:21
SkryI'm suspecting the very same02:22

qwazixLooking through those images it seems the companies think that the hwkb is only for geeks without a sense of beauty or sth02:31
qwazixexcept the MotoDroids that is...02:31
jonwil99.999% of those phones are obsolete or running on obsolete crappy hardware02:33
ApicYeah02:34
ShadowJKya02:34
qwazixor have ugly dpads or stupid soft-buttons on the front02:34
ShadowJK95% were obsolete when their spec was decided02:34
qwazixor 2x2px screens02:34
qwazixI think that whoever does a high end beautiful qwerty phone today with a 4+ screen will carve market share for years to come02:37
*** XenonXZ has joined #maemo02:37
qwazixBecause I know nobody, geek or not, who used a good hwkb and wants to go back02:37
qwazixBut even I wouldn't buy anything available to buy today with a hwkb. So companies fool themselves that there is no market02:38
pewter_taoqwazix: you mean who doesn't want to go back, right?02:39
pewter_taoI don't think ubuntu will consider making their own hardware, but they should02:39
qwazixbecause their crappy qwerty *of course* don't sell02:39
qwazixpewter_tao, I'm not good at those double negative things as in different languages mean different things02:39
pewter_taohttp://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9235176/Update_Canonical_prepares_Ubuntu_for_smartphones02:40
qwazixbut I mean that everybody I know that's been using hwkb wants to keep using hwkb02:40
qwazixah, ok now I get why I was not clear. I meant "I know nobody, geek or not, who used a good hwkb and wants to go back to pure touchscreen"02:41
qwazixwhich probably doesn't make much sense...02:41
jonwilI think if you took a phone like the Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S2 or Galaxy S3 and added a good hardware keyboard, it could well become the greatest phone ever made.02:43
pewter_taoqwazix: now that made sense02:43
qwazixGalaxy Note ftw. Fits a 104key qwerty :P02:44
pewter_taojonwil: the bigger the screen, the more oddly a HW keyboard will make the bezel shape02:44
XenonXZimho, n900 with a gig of ram and quad cpu02:44
XenonXZthats a perfect phone :-)02:44
pewter_taoXenonXZ: yeah, why isn't anyway soldering new CPUs to the n900 board?02:44
pewter_taoI feel like we only need 20 people who want this and we can spec one together, get some biz dev people, and make a fucking company02:45
pewter_taoI'll make a "let's start a cell phone company website" and you guys can popularize it on maemo forum...02:45

DocScrutinizer05ShadowJK: elite-what? bell and braben?02:52
ShadowJKyes02:52
DocScrutinizer05\o/02:52
ShadowJKBraben is doing a Elite 4 :)02:52
DocScrutinizer05Braben, the last real coder02:53
DocScrutinizer05;-)02:53
DocScrutinizer05or was it Bell?02:53
ShadowJKBell is the harecore mathematician02:54
DocScrutinizer05I even forgot how many million assembler lines elite been02:54
*** landho has quit IRC02:54
ShadowJKPeople who reverse engineered 2 and 3 found many bugs in "simple" things like the 64 bit multiply function02:54
ShadowJKWell the original fit in 22k ram02:55
*** landho has joined #maemo02:55
Skrydamn new elite, forcing me to buy new hardware02:56
jonwilI recon the best hope for a decent phone with a hw keyboard is if the GTA04 people ever get to the point that they can afford to do one...02:56
jonwilThe hardware of the N900 is starting to look a bit dated (and if it was possible to upgrade the parts in the N900 with new ones someone would have found out how to do it by now)02:57
XenonXZStill love my N900 even if it is dated02:58
jonwilyes me too02:58
jonwilThe only way I will give up the N900 is if it breaks and cant be fixed anymore02:59
ShadowJKDocScrutinizer05; elite 2 Atari version approximately 600,000 lines of asm02:59
*** jon_y has quit IRC03:01
ShadowJKhttp://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1461411552/elite-dangerous anyway03:02
wirrShadowJK, thanks four your links - I wont be able to run the tests today but i'll be back tomorrow03:03
ShadowJKwirr: sure :)03:05
Hurrianjonwil, uhh, that's if the GTA04 devs figure out power management03:06
HurrianI had a Freerunner, and it simply pales in comparison to what the N900 can do03:07
*** eijk has quit IRC03:07
XenonXZnn all03:07
Hurriannight03:08
*** XenonXZ is now known as XenonXZ|aw03:08
jonwilWhat makes power management so hard? I thought it was all done by the kernel on a modern Linux setup03:11
jonwilAlthough I guess the real issue (battery life) is all to do with optimizing the whole system to run better03:11
ShadowJKHave you use hibernate/suspend-to-disk and/or suspend-to-ram on  a linux machine?03:13
jonwilnope I haven't03:14
ShadowJKAh well, N900 does suspend-to-ram seamlessly, even when screen is on03:14
ShadowJKGetting linux kernel to run on a cpu is much easier than getting it to shut down the cpu and wake it up again reliably03:15
Hurrianjonwil: last I heard the wifi module sucked an unholy amount of power for piss range.03:15
ApicRight-e-o03:16
*** jon_y has joined #maemo03:17
ShadowJKWithout the DVFS, and the sleep modes, N900 idle batterylife would be 5 hours instead of the actual 10-11 days (radios off, screen off, etc)03:17
HurrianShadowJK, and while in use, 30 minutes.03:17
Hurrian(this can be demonstrated by booting Debian with the Nemo adaptation kernel)03:17
ShadowJKlol03:17
ShadowJK30m is impossible :)03:18
HurrianIIRC Stskeeps said that even with some original RX-51 team members working on MeeGo for the N900, they still couldn't make MeeGo run on the same power envelope as Fremantle03:18
Hurrianso yes, embedded power management is hard.03:19
*** pewter_tao has quit IRC03:19
jonwilI am guessing that even if you have the same hardware its not just a case of "hey, xyz has already written power management code for our SoC, lets pinch theirs"03:21
ShadowJKI suspect omap3 is the only cpu with proper-ish power management code03:22
jonwilThe03:23
ShadowJKThe original OLPC had similar abilities, they had to completely ditch the bios and rewrite from scratch to accomplish it :)03:24
jonwiland yeah if the MeeGo guys couldn't match Fremantle for power management when they were using identical hardware and much the same kernel and userspace bits (dsme, mce, bme etc) I dont think the GTA04 guys have a chance03:24
jonwilBe interesting to see some hard numbers comparing the power management/battery life profile of an N900 with stock Fremantle and a N900 with Pali's BME replacement work, see how the new stuff affects battery life03:26
ShadowJKNot significantly03:27
ShadowJKI've been running my own for years03:27
ShadowJKperhaps only difference is that bme shuts down earlier to avoid suddenly running out of power and the potential filesystem corruption from that03:28
jonwilI do wonder which bits of the system are the ones causing MeeGo-on-N900 to have a worse power envelope than Fremantle. Or maybe its just that userspace programs (GUI, apps etc) aren't as well written for MeeGo as they were for Fremantle and therefore use more juice...03:29
ShadowJKI remember DocScrutinizer bitching about the sensor framework atleast03:30
DocScrutinizer05indeed03:30
DocScrutinizer05qtm and sensorfw all based on polling rather than IRQ event driven03:31
jonwilWhat bit of phone handles sensor framework on Fremantle?03:31
ShadowJKlet's take an example of fremantle and idle N900: 11 days life. fremantle otherwise idle, but following script running: "while true; do sleep 5 ; done": 4 days life.03:31
DocScrutinizer05a sane design decision for all sorts of devices with different sensors that not always have IRQ, but all the devices have lots of battery power or even PSU03:32
ShadowJKSo if you've got 4 random things polling accelerometer, proximity, camera door, etc, even with half-minute poll interval you've just dropped idle life to four times less03:32
ApicI wish there was a Compass03:33
ApicMy G1 had one, but I threw it away in a psychotic Episode.03:33
ShadowJKthe compass in my android tablet is about as useful and accurate as a Ouija board03:34
ApicOk03:34
DocScrutinizer05jonwil: (which bit of sw) depends, some is done by mce, some by liblocation, some by libisi, etc pp03:35
DocScrutinizer05and quite some of them are also not as strictly event driven as they should be03:35
DocScrutinizer05e.g. accelerometer, it's way better than the one used in mer, but still miles from optimum03:37
Sc0rpiusremember the Ubuntu Phone OS I talked like 2 days ago?03:37
DocScrutinizer05it just doesn't matter that much since they probably poll accelerometer only when screen active03:37
Sc0rpiushere's a demo: http://youtu.be/kXWnMTm7We803:37
Sc0rpiusit should work on any hardware.03:38
Sc0rpiusI think it really looks gorgeous03:38
Sc0rpiuswe should work in porting that to the N900!03:38
*** NIN101 has quit IRC03:39
ShadowJK"any hardware" is kinda...03:39
DocScrutinizer05not sure if I should post *yawn* now, or get me a coffee prior to clicking that link03:39
ShadowJKin practice it's like N900 and Google Nexus*, right03:40
Sc0rpiusit's just 2 minutes Doc03:40
ShadowJKand N900 is underpowered03:40
Sc0rpiusthis is 100% Ubuntu no java / dalvik (Android) crap inside03:40
Sc0rpiusjust like Maemo, if it runs Maemo, why not Ubuntu phone?03:40
ShadowJKthe only major thing hardware-wise is that they've made ubuntu run on android kernel instead of needing linux kernel03:41
DocScrutinizer05well, because I hate buntkuh, maybe?03:41
Sc0rpiusyou hate Ubuntu?03:42
DocScrutinizer05yep03:42
Sc0rpiuswow that's weird, aren't you a Debian guy?03:42
Sc0rpiusor are you a Fedora/Red Hat (RPM) guy?03:42
DocScrutinizer05so what? canonical hijacked linux and made it a me-too-windows03:42
DocScrutinizer05~buntkuh03:42
infobothmm... buntkuh is http://xkcd.com/424/ ... Redmond, or http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holstein-Rind03:42
ShadowJKandroid has a "force everything to sleep" thing going on for power saving, so I imagine android kernels aren't that complete and well tweaked for always-on OS :)03:43
Sc0rpiuswho said it kept the Android kernel...03:44
Sc0rpiusthat's a different project called Ubuntu On Android03:44
Sc0rpiusthis is Ubuntu Phone, a complete OS03:44
Sc0rpiusUbuntu Phone <> Ubuntu for Android03:44
Sc0rpiusmy brother has a Samsung Note 10.1 tablet and installed that Ubuntu for Androind and lags like HELL03:45
Sc0rpiusto me, it's unusable.03:45
Sc0rpiusand it's a quad-core tablet with 2 GB of RAM03:46
ShadowJKThe whole point of their "any hw" claim is that they run on existing android kernel of the "any hw", that way they don't have to write device drivers and fight with device vendors03:47
DocScrutinizer05Sc0rpius: I'm a system guy03:47
Sc0rpiusShadowJK, well yeah so far it only works with Nexus because the whole OS is OpenSource and they can grab drivers from there03:48
Sc0rpiusbut that's not the point in the future03:48
DocScrutinizer05Sc0rpius: ...and i'm kinda oldfashioned, so I hate to find upstart on a friend's buntkuh box when he asks for help, while *all* by boxes have proper sysV-init, and I don't see *any* advantage of that new crap03:48
Sc0rpiusyou're a Slackware guy.03:48
DocScrutinizer05the I hate gnome03:48
DocScrutinizer05then*03:49
Sc0rpiusthat's normal in experienced Linux users.  Most people install Xubuntu (no Unity, no Gnome) with Xfce03:49
ShadowJKSc0rpius; I'm pretty sure the graphics drivers are blobs even on nexus? :)03:49
DocScrutinizer05and generally I hate that windowsy philosophy in ubuntu03:49
Sc0rpiusso you like your several terminal open and nothing else hehehe03:50
Skryseveral terminals and a browser03:50
DocScrutinizer05while I've always been proud of my linux systems being *ahead* of any windows desktop usability wise, ubuntu tries to mimic windows as much as they can03:51
Sc0rpiusGUI is great.03:51
jogaI install plain ubuntu but never ever use the default desktop03:51
GeneralAntillesDocScrutinizer05, uuhhh?03:51
DocScrutinizer05wizards are da shite though03:51
GeneralAntillesUnity is not a mimicry of Windows.03:51
Sc0rpiusUbuntu GUI (with Xfce or LXDE) is great03:51
Sc0rpiusUnity is very bad but there are several options03:52
*** tank-man has joined #maemo03:52
Skrycanonical, red hat, all the same crap, different package (manager)03:52
jogaI use mostly: notion lxdm uzbl mupdf wicd03:52
jogathen it doesn't matter if the ubuntu machine has 32MB of ram03:53
DocScrutinizer05i'd not even be astonished if ubuntu came with double-click to launch, by default03:53
Sc0rpiusI use LXDE in my netbook, it's extremely light03:53
Sc0rpiusbut Xfce in this desktop03:54
ApicLXDE rules, especially OpenBox03:54
joganot light and usable enough imo :p03:54
Sc0rpiusactually this is a Xubuntu running in VMWare full screen in a 2nd monitor, my host is Windows 8.03:54
Sc0rpiusI have to have both worlds at the same time.03:54
ShadowJKDocScrutinizer05; seems like they have voice to launch now03:54
ShadowJK(say app name to start it)03:54
DocScrutinizer05\o/03:54
Sc0rpiusthat's nice03:54
jogauntil you launch porn03:55
Apic;-)03:55
ShadowJKif it's like iphone or android's voice recog, it's about as useful as a random number generator03:55
ApicI tried "FNORD" with Android. Worked grate!03:55
ApicI literally screamed03:55
ApicLike a Madman03:55
Apic;-)03:55
DocScrutinizer05ShadowJK: I bet in 6 months they have tiles, like windows803:57
Sc0rpiusI hope so!03:58
*** Martix has quit IRC03:58
* DocScrutinizer05 too03:58
DocScrutinizer05might finally kill them03:58
Sc0rpiusyou already can take the labels out in the taskbar and leave only the icons just like W703:58
Sc0rpiusand you can, already, group Windows in the taskbar as well03:58
Sc0rpiusat least in my Xfce that I'm using right now03:59
Sc0rpiusI can't tile windows though03:59

Snafu777?08:55
Sicelonewbie007: yes. it's a known issue. you can safely ignore it08:56
Snafu777Anyone know?08:58
newbie007Sicelo: but it prevents me from updating..08:59
Sicelonewbie007: i believe it doesn't. that error has been around for quite some time now, but we've been able to update. are you sure you don't have other problems?09:12
*** shamus has quit IRC09:12
*** shamus has joined #maemo09:12
SiceloSnafu777: i don't know. i don't even know what you mean by 'static'09:13
Siceloin any case, you shouldn't be able to remove HAM. you can try to reinstall it (apt-get install --reinstall ...)09:15
Snafu777it sucks and its slow09:16
Snafu777i user faster application manager09:16
SiceloHAM is slow, but your FAM can kill your system.09:16
Siceloleave HAM alone. maybe ccsu will eventually make it suck less09:18
Snafu777i just wanted to remove it in hopes that it doesnt mess with my sources list09:19
Snafu777how can FAM kill the system?09:19
Snafu777because by default, it will overwrite my sources list09:20
Snafu777But Sicelo, I would be very interested to know why it would kill the system?09:20
Siceloyou can't remove HAM. you can't even remove games :P09:20
Snafu777i did09:20
Snafu777apt-get purge09:20
Snafu777gone09:20
Snafu777p00f09:20
Snafu777and u can remove games dude =)09:20
SiceloImpressive. Anyway, removing HAM is a questionable thing to do.09:23
Snafu777Not following?09:23
Snafu777its a shitty application GUI, and it affects my sources list09:23
Snafu777it tries to autoupdate09:23
Snafu777the scum who invented it should be shot and hung and disemboweled09:24
Snafu777by why do u say it should not be removed?  whats yer basis?09:24
*** ColdFyre has quit IRC09:24
Siceloyou can adjust the auto-update period09:25
Snafu777i know09:25
*** ColdFyre has joined #maemo09:25
Snafu777but its still affected (sources list) by ham09:25
Snafu777which is BS09:25
Snafu777a gui should not modify a file without permission09:25
Snafu777But why do u say removing it would break the system?09:25
Siceloi didn't. i said it's questionable.09:26
Snafu777I don't agree man =)  I appreciate the "advice" but its questionable advice at best, you can't tell somebody they shouldnt do something with a computer if u dont have a reasoning to back it up, that's never a good way to give advice09:27
Snafu777U also said FAM can kill my system, why"09:28
Snafu777?09:28
Siceloit has done that for other people. check the logs for this channel, and possibly TMO09:29
* Snafu777 <~~~ All about making the N900 a pentest device in my pocket09:30
Siceloin any case, i suppose i'm unable to help with your particular case.09:30
Snafu777No worries, I appreciate the advice anyways man =)09:31
Sicelocool09:31
Snafu777So do u do any hacking with yer N900 ?09:31
Sicelopentesting? no09:31
Snafu777Aw, yer missing out =)09:32

Snafu777It doesnt break the system10:48

Snafu777but it prevents installation of certain packages via the missing of files10:48
Snafu777Fixable?  Yes....  Worth it, No......10:49

Snafu777How do we get around HAM's bullshit...10:49

kerioSnafu777: it's not a file you're supposed to edit manually11:25
keriomake your own file in the same directory11:25
kerioor use /etc/apt/sources.list11:25
kerioHAM will pick up the repos in those files (and won't change them)11:26

kerioit doesn't run the pre/post scripts correctly, as fas as i could see11:27
Snafu777ooo11:27
Snafu777feedback11:27
Snafu777so i can drop /etc/apt/sources.list11:27

Snafu777Basically here is what I am trying to do11:28
Snafu777Trim some fat off the stock OS11:28
Snafu777HAM sucks, cuz its a slow GUI11:28
Snafu777I dont use GUIs11:28

infobotblah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah11:29
kerioand yes, HAM is awful11:30
Snafu777i know about /etc/apt/sources.list, but the people who invented the N900 had some crazy ideas regarding FHS and their implementation thereof11:30
Snafu777ie...11:30
Snafu777256MB nand...and placing / on it11:30
kerioset the autoupdate frequency to a year or so11:30
Snafu777yeah11:30
Snafu777fixed that issue11:30
Snafu777via gconf11:31

Snafu777still though11:31
Snafu777shitty implementation11:31

Snafu777Thanks for the why by the way kerio11:32
Snafu777I had input from another user earlier, but they couldnt explain the why part11:32
Snafu777u actually told me why11:32
Snafu777so i appreciate that....11:32
*** jonwil has joined #maemo11:33
Snafu777tis good advice, vs, "they heard" from "that dude" who spoke with "that guy" who heard from "this fella"11:33
keriopackages that most definetely fail are, for instance, the various kernel flashers11:33
Snafu777hmm11:33
keriowhich sucks, because you tend to update (correctly) the modules at the same time, and then you reboot11:33
Snafu777i can prolly google myself11:33
Snafu777but can i tell apt-get NOT to look at /etc/apt/sources.list.d?11:34
* Snafu777 <~~~ building a custom image to be distro'd out =)11:34
kerioi suppose there's a way11:34
Snafu777if the user wants to interact with a GUI, cool11:34
Snafu777but apt-get is the way the target audience will react11:34
Snafu777and having the sources overwritten is bullshit11:34
Snafu777or having apt-get look in two places11:35
keriothey won't be overwritten dammit11:35
Snafu777in the n900's case11:35
kerioHAM will write its own file11:35
Snafu777/etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager is definately overwritten11:35
Snafu777and apt-get pulls from that11:35
Snafu777which is why i asked =)11:35
kerioand having multiple files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d is standard, really11:35
Snafu777yeah11:35
Snafu777but writing something that will check for a file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* and removing it prior to an apt-get instance is stupid, I want one source for the users11:36
Snafu777prefered to have /etc/apt/sources.list11:36
kerioso disable every catalog in HAM and use sources.list11:36
Snafu777but if apt-get looks in /etc/apt/sources.list.d as well, and i cant permanently delete that location11:36
Snafu777then it fucks me =-)11:36
*** shamus has quit IRC11:36
Snafu777but then that fucks the user who wants a gui =)11:36
Snafu777I have to satisfy both kerio =)11:37
keriono, HAM will use all the repos11:37
Snafu777but will it not overwrite?11:37
Snafu777via disabling every catalog in ham?11:37
keriohis own repos are editable from HAM and will be written unilaterally to hildon-application-manager.list11:37
*** shamus has joined #maemo11:37
keriothe other repos will appear in the list but won't be editable11:38
Snafu777Ah11:38
Snafu777Tested and tried kerio ?11:38
keriodo your own testing dude11:38
Snafu777i do11:38
Snafu777but11:38
Snafu777it seems thats its a random timing for overwriting11:38
Snafu777i cant make it "kick" by opening HAM11:38
Snafu777it just does it11:38
Snafu777of its own accord when it feels like11:39
Snafu777from what ive seen11:39
Snafu777which is why i ask =)11:39
Snafu777i figure its a timer via gconf somewhere11:39
Snafu777something of that nature11:39
Snafu777but11:39

DocScrutinizer05how would I emulate a CNAME DNS in my /etc/hosts?17:19
kerioyou wouldn't17:19

DocScrutinizer05yep17:49

DocScrutinizer05wait17:51
DocScrutinizer05forgot to insert a tag for later easy removal17:52
jonwilso is the issue just that the right people at Nokia are slow/lazy/still on holidays/whatever or are there actual issues here (e.g. legal guys need to do things)17:52
DocScrutinizer05the latter, with HiFo17:57
DocScrutinizer05I assume17:58
DocScrutinizer05dnsmaster@nokia.com doesn't answer Nemein inquiries17:58
*** erstazi has quit IRC17:59

DocScrutinizer05after all that's about *lawyers*18:04
*** valdyn has quit IRC18:05
keriothe negotiation is non-public, but the final result can't be, right?18:05
DocScrutinizer05and DNS is only a small chunk of the whole package to agree upon18:05
*** Scorcere1 is now known as Scorcerer18:08
DocScrutinizer05I bet the final result will get published by HiFo18:08
*** Scorcerer has joined #maemo18:08
jonwilI would imagine that negotiations would probably include the right to redistribute various (c) Nokia content, rights to use Nokia trademarks in certain cases where HiFo and the community needs to be able to use those trademarks and who knows what else18:09
DocScrutinizer05yup18:10
*** valdyn has joined #maemo18:11
jonwilThere is a thread on tmo where people are supposed to be listing all things related to Maemo/MeeGo/Harmattan/N900/N950/N9 that are not on *.maemo.org but where ownership/distribution rights need to be transferred to the community so I imagine the stuff there factors into it too18:12
*** Milhouse has quit IRC18:12
* SpeedEvil imagines what a full release of all sources on open licences would do.18:13
DocScrutinizer05and I think - even while generally non-public - HiFo *should* (B)CC at least council on their negotiations, since it's really way too much responsibility for just 2 people to get the whole FOSS spirit and all the minuscule details about each single domain right, without some sparring/feedback from other guys18:13

jonwilOff the top of my head I can easily list off about 10-20 currently-closed packages that would enable great things if they were open-sourced. In saying that though reading the list at http://wiki.maemo.org/Fremantle_closed_packages I can see valid reasons why a fair whack of them remain closed18:15
DocScrutinizer05haha, opensource Nokia blobs, dream on, this is NOT about such miracles18:16
DocScrutinizer05and I honestly hope HiFo did get that as well18:17
*** FReaper-PC has quit IRC18:18
DocScrutinizer05worst thing that could happen: Nokia simply stopping negotiations about transfer of maemo.org domains and content due to HiFo asking for and insisting in too much, that Nokia simply can't do18:18
*** FlameReaper-PC has joined #maemo18:19
*** NonooPC has quit IRC18:21
DocScrutinizer05we'll blame thedead1440 then, for writing a customer mail to elop and thus "making evil authorities in nokia aware" of the maemo issue ;-P18:22
* thedead1440 hides18:22
DocScrutinizer05thedead1440: how DARE you?18:22
*** Milhouse has quit IRC18:22
thedead1440i wrote it from a consumer not from maemo and highlighted 3 issues including maemo :S18:23
thedead1440hehe18:23
DocScrutinizer05thedead1440: just kidding, I hope you noticed that18:23
thedead1440ofcourse :p18:23
*** Milhouse has joined #maemo18:23
*** FlameReaper-PC has quit IRC18:23
thedead1440its after all very convenient to say 2 drafts were what was wanted and due to the email the 3rd draft was watered down18:24
kerioand you wrote it to elop?18:24
thedead1440of course18:25
keriotough shit, it probably got nowhere close to him18:25
thedead1440i wrote a long rant to him; its old news18:25
kerioit was *long* too?18:25
thedead1440it got to him most probably18:25
keriothen the small chance that he could've stumbled upon it is actually 018:25
thedead1440he replies to L920 users and mnb too before18:25
DocScrutinizer05actually when HiFo sends back first contract with comments what should get changed, and gets a 2nd draft with worse conditions, it's not necessarily thedead1440 who made the lawyers reconsider. It might as well have been the comments HiFo added to the first draft that made Nokia lawyers look at some cases once again and suddenly notice there's something that slipped their attention in first draft18:25
keriowhy wouldn't nokia want to just get rid of all the maemo cruft?18:26
thedead1440kerio: i didn't say i'm thedead1440 and referring to maemo but I gave my real name saying as a Nokia consumer some issues were troubling like stopping paid apps for n9 being listed in china etc18:26
kerio<elop> it's ok, we won't stop apps for windows phone being listed in china18:27
thedead1440my main issues were with device support for existing devices with valid warranties18:27

thedead1440maemo was one para in it highlighting in the grand scheme of things device support18:28
*** FlameReaper-PC has joined #maemo18:28
DocScrutinizer05and my last post pretty much explains why I think HiFo *ought* share and discuss their negotiations with Nokia with council18:29
DocScrutinizer05err18:30
thedead1440well DocScrutinizer05 i think i should post my email on the ML to get rid of suspicions18:30
DocScrutinizer05and my last post pretty much explains why I think HiFo *ought* share and discuss with council their negotiations with Nokia18:30
DocScrutinizer05yes, probably a very good idea18:30
DocScrutinizer05thedead1440: ^^^18:31
thedead1440i'm contemplating it but then what i wrote won't remain private so weighing against it18:31
DocScrutinizer05well, didn't you answer to the public(?) bashing by HiFo already?18:32
*** FReaper-PC has joined #maemo18:33
kerioDocScrutinizer05: no srsly, why would nokia stop the negotiations? :(18:33
thedead1440but i asked if they wanted the email they didn't reply on that18:33
DocScrutinizer05or was this in a closed ML once again?18:33
thedead1440nope doc it was cc'ed to board & council18:33
DocScrutinizer05both are closed18:33
DocScrutinizer05aka non-public18:34
thedead1440releasing it just invites more flaming against me, I think... I'm an individual after all and its very easy to go on TMO and say due to thedead1440's email to Elop we have lost this and that18:34
DocScrutinizer05so as long as HiFo bashing against you is non-public, I recommend you shouldn't answer it in public either18:35

thedead1440exactly that's what I was thinking too18:35
*** FlameReaper-PC has quit IRC18:37
* jonwil does his best to avoid political and legal crap18:37
jonwilI just want to write code :)18:38
DocScrutinizer05((<kerio> why wouldn't nokia want to just get rid of all the maemo cruft?)) kerio, HiFo is thinking BIG, really BIIIIG, they want further all sorts of maemo-derived and generally open source projects, maemo itself is just a small aspect on their agenda18:38
*** luf has quit IRC18:39
DocScrutinizer05kerio: so I'm afraid they demand Nokia to do things they can't do, like opensourcing whole maemo (something we didn't manage even in times when there was actually personal in Nokia who knew what maemo actually is)18:40
DocScrutinizer05other possible points of argue are about commercializing maemo trademark and sourcecode18:41
*** xes_ has quit IRC18:41
DocScrutinizer05as well as meego and whatnot else18:41
thedead1440DocScrutinizer05 explain "commercializing maemo trademark and sourcecode" you mean HiFo is asking for rights to do so?18:42
DocScrutinizer05I sometimes think HiFo is overestimating their own power and relevance to entities like Nokia, jolla, etc18:42
DocScrutinizer05thedead1440: if they would, this for sure might cause massive trouble in getting any agreement with Nokia18:43
keriowell, let's tell them to stfu18:45
DocScrutinizer05whom? HiFo? I don't even know what they're saying right now, so I don't think STFU is the right advice18:46
DocScrutinizer05rather my advice is: "consider doing frequent regular reality-check with your colleagues from maemo council"18:47

*** luf has joined #maemo18:55
wmarone_I'm failing to see what's evil here?18:55
DocScrutinizer05nothing, in my book18:55
DocScrutinizer05it's just that HiFo can't offer any service of value to Jolla, other than putting them on their "supporters" page18:57
*** Theorbo has quit IRC18:57
*** shamus has quit IRC18:58
*** shamus has joined #maemo18:58
DocScrutinizer05so if Jolla would decide to fund HiFo/maemo, they'd do for PR, not to get any service from HiFo18:58
DocScrutinizer05unlike mer/nemo project, which is actually doing a service that Jolla pretty much depends on18:59
thedead1440and they are not interested in such PR as of now? So they said thanks but no thanks in a nice way? Is that what you mean DocScrutinizer0518:59

thedead1440tivoization of sub-standard OS is what Jolla might end up19:28
DocScrutinizer05basically, though HARM is harmless (pun intended)19:28

thedead1440i can see from the UI though19:39
DocScrutinizer05that's a completely different topic and I tend to agree here19:39
thedead1440and if its limited to 9 apps multi-tasking, i wonder if it means actually a more locked down OS than thought19:40

DocScrutinizer05I guess Jolla will publish a sailfish that's open but rudimentary, and whoever over at china will do exactly what Nokia did: add closed blob skin apps and other shite, call it a product and tivoize it19:47
thedead1440so emperor with new clothes but maybe of a slightly lower quality?19:47
DocScrutinizer05we'll see19:48
M4rtinKisn't that also how Android works ?19:49
DocScrutinizer05indeed19:49
DocScrutinizer05afaik, never used any android device19:50
DocScrutinizer05ooh, and by the life of mine I can't remember stskeep's answer to my question how sailfish manages to deliver on their claim that it takes them one nightshift to port sailfish to arbitrary new hw. I suspected they are exploiting android drivers like RIL (for modem) and GFX etc19:52
DocScrutinizer05afaik not all RIL implementations are open source19:52
DocScrutinizer05I think some answer been "we use ofono" which doesn't really answer my question19:53
kerioDocScrutinizer05: anything can be done in a nightshift, if you have enough people :P19:54
*** roostrus` has quit IRC19:54
kerioand enough coffee, ofc19:54
Palido somebody know if jabber account configuration UI is open?19:55
DocScrutinizer05yeah, born after one nightshift, with 4600 mothers and 58m^3 coffe involved19:55
Paliin that UI is missing config option for jabber resource priority19:55
DocScrutinizer05kerio: no you can't19:55
Palibut priority can be configured via some command line tool19:55
Pali(nokia fixed that bug only on half)19:56
DocScrutinizer05kerio: since conversation bandwidth between developers is limited to what human brain and mouth can do19:56
kerioDocScrutinizer05: that's only because human birth is inefficient and not easily parallelizable19:56

DocScrutinizer05if one developer needs 5 minutes do write a function, you don't see 300 developers writing same function in one second19:58
keriobut you can write multiple functions in 5 minutes!19:58
DocScrutinizer05yes, but then they are not integrated19:58
DocScrutinizer05they will be just a bunch of useless unrelated functions19:58
DocScrutinizer05aka windows - SCNR19:59
*** InvalidHandle has quit IRC20:00
*** InvalidHandle has joined #maemo20:00
DocScrutinizer05and after those 5 min you got 300 functions that will take each single one of your devels 10 min to understand and another 15 minutes to integrate into own code, 300^2 * 25min20:01
keriohave you considered the coffee, though? i don't see the coffee in your analysis20:02
DocScrutinizer05 /300 devels = still 150h20:02
DocScrutinizer05ok, *coffe = 180h20:02
DocScrutinizer05then first debugging cycle starts20:04
DocScrutinizer05;-P20:04
DocScrutinizer05eventually your nightshift is over20:04

keriook, remove the coffee and add meth20:05

DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-05 16:47:36] <DocScrutinizer05> for your convenience:  wget http://maemo.cloud-7.de/migration-project/DNS-TBD-.etc.hosts >>/etc/hosts20:10
kerioDocScrutinizer05: you suck20:10
DocScrutinizer05thanks20:10
keriowget saves files in the current directory20:10
kerioall you're doing is appending a nice progress bar to /etc/hosts20:11
DocScrutinizer05hmm, you're absolutely right20:11
keriouse curl20:11
kerioor the appropriate wget option20:11
Pali$ wget http://maemo.cloud-7.de/migration-project/DNS-TBD-.etc.hosts -q -O - >> /etc/hosts20:11
DocScrutinizer05I'll leave that up to you then ;-)20:11
Palirun ^^^^20:11
keriois curl preinstalled?20:11
kerioPali: why the -q?20:11
DocScrutinizer05on my desktop PC? SURE!20:12
keriowon't wget know to avoid outputting anything but the file?20:12
kerioDocScrutinizer05: that's not what i meant and you know ti20:12
kerio*it20:12
Palibecause you do not want to write some progressbar to /etc/hosts :D20:12
Paliand busybox is stupid and can use stdout for progressbar....20:12
DocScrutinizer05~messybox20:12
infobotmessy... err busybox is meant for lean scripting. Regarding all the missing options and immanent limitations (see su, passwd) it's not really the interactive shell of choice. A lot of people hate busybox because a lot of system integrators don't understand the difference between busybox and a decent user interactive shell plus unix utils20:12
keriohm, i have gnu wget20:13
kerioin /usr/bin, what the hell20:13
DocScrutinizer05no friggin messybox on my PC, and for sure I didn't think of N900 when I posted above workaround (though it should apply *in principle*)20:13
kerioPali: are you sure wget isn't just gnu wget?20:13
keriooh, it's not20:14
DocScrutinizer05wget isn't messybox20:14
keriowget is just... not there? apparently20:14
Palikerio, there is also wget in some busybox20:14
DocScrutinizer05wget isn't even installed per default on fremantle afaik20:14
keriothere's wget in sdk/tools and in extras-devel20:14
Palibut I do not know if nokia compiled wget aplet into our busybox20:14
kerionot sure about other extras20:14
DocScrutinizer05maybe bauer-messybox has wget20:15
DocScrutinizer05std messybox doesn't20:15
keriowget: applet not found20:15
keriothe powah busybox does, ofc20:15
kerioand the progress bar is outputted to stderr, even in busybox wget20:16
DocScrutinizer05wget comes with about 50% of pkgs in extras20:16
kerioheh20:16
Paliwe can be happy, that we can install GNU utils20:16
Palion some routers there is *only* busybox20:16
keriowe could've been happier if they were preinstalled :)20:16
Palior on androids there is no GNU...20:17
kerioalso, my router probably has enough space to install the whole coreutils20:17

DocScrutinizer05YIKES! http://maemo.org/packages/ looks but ugly without proper static.maemo.org20:18

DocScrutinizer05now how the heck would I access "normal" maemo.org with that etc/hosts in place?20:19
keriowell, change the hosts file20:19
kerioPali: have you tried using the emergency tftp transfer thing?20:20
keriousually those aren't signed20:20
DocScrutinizer05yeah, I already anticipated I'll need some shell cmd to swap /etc/hosts and /etc/hosts-maemobackup20:21
DocScrutinizer05GRRRRRRR20:21

kerio/etc/hosts-new and /etc/hosts-old20:22
kerioand then cp the one you want20:22
kerio(also make sure to shift+refresh, firefox has its own dns cache too)20:23
DocScrutinizer05yes, kerio. That's about the level of development I can do when I'm awake and put much effort in20:23
Sicelokerio: is it possible to de-activate firefox cache?20:24
kerioclearly, it's because of not enough coffee20:24
kerioSicelo: i'm... not sure you really want that20:24
DocScrutinizer05I'm more wondering if something could get improved in the patched etc/hosts20:24
keriobesides, what would that even mean?20:24
keriodo you want a dns request for each connection?20:24
kerioif the server doesn't support http 1.1, you're in for a treat20:24
kerioand a ban from your dns server, probably20:24
Siceloi could probably run dnsmasq20:24
kerioSicelo: network.dnsCacheExpiration 020:25
keriosays some random website20:25
Sicelothe issue is.. my internet it terrible... and firefox doesn't seem to take well to that. while other applications don't seem to mind too much20:25
kerio<exaggeration>to be fair, google dns is probably faster than firefox's cache</exaggeration>20:27

fizzieMy router is kind of similar, except its web admin interface full of shell injection holes (sprintf(s, "iptables ... %s ...", from_http_form), system(s)) and that's the only way to run anything unofficial on it. (Plus there's no sources for it anywhere.)20:35
fizzie(The manufacturer firmware has a telnet admin interface that has a "sh" command to drop into busybox shell, but this ISP-customized version has been changed to not accept the same accounts/passwords the web admin interface does.)20:36

SpeedEvilbut, if asked for a margin of 65530, it in fact sets less due to an overflow error.20:39
