Tekk_ | is ovi maps supposed to be incredibly slow to load? | 00:32 |
Tekk_ | it's been sitting on the splash for 5 minutes now at least | 00:33 |
freemangordon | chem|st: maybe that CaCerts (whatever it is) could be used as a temporarily solution. I guess even a self-signed certificate will be better | 00:33 |

freemangordon | because I am on the same mailing list, being a part of the techstaff ;). So I somehow expect to be able to talk to warfare and xes (our sysops) on the IRC | 01:04 |
chem|st | true | 01:05 |

Sicelo | Tekk_: and Ovi Maps :P | 11:17 |
Sicelo | Blaizzen & others on TMO did it.. wfm | 11:17 |
Tekk_ | Sicelo: ovi maps doesn't work for me | 11:17 |
Tekk_ | doesn't seem to anyway | 11:17 |
Sicelo | ah, yes. sorry | 11:17 |
Tekk_ | it stayed on the splash screen for over 10 minutes before I killed it :P | 11:17 |
Tekk_ | plus it doesn't do voice navigation (at least according to the wiki) | 11:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | not without a hack | 11:18 |
*** N-Mi has joined #maemo | 11:18 | |
Sicelo | the hack works very well. Ovi Maps is the *only* maps I use (having tried the others) | 11:18 |
Sicelo | Tekk_: i wonder if something else is not also broken on your device :p | 11:19 |
Tekk_ | Sicelo: could be | 11:19 |
Tekk_ | but I don't see breakage with anything else | 11:19 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I think ovi maps server is dead, or zombie, or whatever | 11:25 |
Sicelo | hmm, but Tekk_'s problem is on-device, i think | 11:26 |
Tekk_ | yeah, it's definitely an on-device thing | 11:26 |
Tekk_ | I think | 11:26 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and I wonder how long nokia supl will continue to work (if it still does) | 11:26 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you think? | 11:26 |
Sicelo | my Ovi Maps is still working.. have just opened it now, and SUPL too | 11:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I think maps takes ages until it starts because it needs to connect to server | 11:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | Tekk_: go offline, then try maps again | 11:28 |
Sicelo | the one thing which i *know* is broken is the location of the maps files .. what happened is the dns name changed, and Ovi Maps still looks for Maps in old place. | 11:28 |
Sicelo | however, if the users doesn't have maps on device already, Ovi Maps *should* open, but be blank | 11:29 |
DocScrutinizer05 | which would sufficiently explan why ,aps is failing | 11:29 |
Tekk_ | offline as in offline mode? | 11:29 |
Tekk_ | would've thought that disables gps | 11:29 |
Tekk_ | or just turn off the internet connection? | 11:29 |
Sicelo | if that's the reason, he can easily try this: | 11:29 |
Sicelo | get a windows machine, install the latest ovi suite/whatever name.. that should give him maps | 11:30 |
Sicelo | that's how i updated mine recently | 11:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | right, offline it shows a warning, an eula (on first start) then goes completely blank and bogus | 11:30 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ((<Tekk_> would've thought that disables gps)) huh? | 11:31 |
Tekk_ | offline mode. I thought it would disable all radios | 11:31 |
DocScrutinizer05 | GPS is no active RF technology. The device doesn't send to the sats ;-P | 11:32 |
Tekk_ | okay, well... | 11:32 |
Tekk_ | tried to start it | 11:32 |
Tekk_ | been loading for about 3 minutes now.. | 11:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | in offline mode? | 11:32 |
Tekk_ | yeah | 11:32 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's terribly odd | 11:33 |
Veggen | uhm...offline mode as in "airplane mode" should also disable radio receivers? | 11:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | huh? | 11:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | why? | 11:33 |
Tekk_ | yes? | 11:33 |
Tekk_ | oh | 11:33 |
* Tekk_ misread Veggen | 11:33 | |
Veggen | DocScrutinizer: No reason except regulations? | 11:33 |
Tekk_ | I wouldn't rule that out tbh | 11:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | never heard of such regulations | 11:33 |
Veggen | I think I've heard that line on all my flights up to recently. "Any device containing transmitters or receivers has to be turned off throughout the whole journey" | 11:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's bogus nonsense even when they tell that | 11:36 |
Veggen | I agree, but it's always been that way, and that's the reason flight mode will also turn off receivers...right? | 11:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | often they told "all electronic devices..." | 11:37 |
Veggen | Doc: sure, but that's during takeoff and landing ;) | 11:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I don't think so | 11:37 |
*** vakkov has quit IRC | 11:37 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | anyway, I never checked, always thought it's a RF-TX killswitch, and nowadays it becomes obsolete since airlines start to even allow WLAN and often even GSM on board now | 11:38 |
Veggen | yah | 11:38 |
*** vakkov has joined #maemo | 11:40 | |
Sicelo | wow! indeed gps works in offline :P | 11:41 |
Sicelo | i also assumed it didn't | 11:41 |
DocScrutinizer05 | in the "old days" when portable electronics been rather exotic (pre-walkman) the airplanes were vulnerable to certain RF interference and first such devices (I seem to recall a diskman incident) sometimes had nasty EMI radiation that forbid using them in airplanes. Nowadays when electronic devices are ubiquitous, airplanes are hardened, and their problem nowadays is malware getting injected to flight computer via WLAN ;-P | 11:42 |
DocScrutinizer05 | the definition of "receiver" is fuzzy enough anyway | 11:43 |
DocScrutinizer05 | btw you know that even pacemakers may contain receivers? | 11:43 |
DocScrutinizer05 | go shut down your pacemaker during start and landing please! ;-P | 11:44 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and right, download of map data doesn't work at all | 11:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so maps is completely useless now | 11:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | (unless you got complete map data cached already) | 11:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ((nokia suite)) haha - "install windoze on your PC or you cannot use maps or even flash new firmware on your linux phone" - really a great catch by M$okia | 11:52 |
Sicelo | :D | 11:53 |
Sicelo | if the others were as easy to use however :( | 11:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you know what I had done instead of buying my first N900 (or even N810) when they had that policy back when? | 11:54 |
jaska | also, if you consider bio-electronic devices | 11:54 |
jaska | then youd have to shut down a whole lot more :) | 11:54 |
kerio | DocScrutinizer05: bought an OM? | 11:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for sure not. Think I had ~12 back when | 11:55 |
* Sicelo will re-read the wiki pages about GPS applications.. all i need is voice nav. & offline maps (which are relatively good for southern africa) | 11:59 | |

zipR4ND | hi all, recently got an old n900, now i ask myself and the internet what ist the way to get the most up-to-date linux (preferably based on debian-wheezy) on my phone and still be able to use it as a phone ... | 15:58 |
joga | I'd say don't bother, just put the cssu maemo there and if you want debian, run it with easydebian in chroot or something | 15:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sounds like a hidden XY-problem. Why do you need most up-to-date linux, to start with? | 15:59 |
zipR4ND | joga: are there any easydebian builds for wheezy? | 16:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | we need to know what's X, I.E. what you want to do so you think you need most recent linux to achieve that | 16:00 |
joga | zipR4ND, dunno, see here http://wiki.maemo.org/Easy_Debian#Debian_.22wheezy.22_images | 16:00 |
zipR4ND | thxx joga | 16:01 |
joga | (note that if you do put easydebian and the image, it's a fairly long and unstable process, ie. you cannot do anything with the phone while it extracts the image and it may crash when writing to the card | 16:01 |
zipR4ND | I just want up to date security packages, and luksFS and i want to be able to install just any app i would want to install on my desktop | 16:01 |
joga | but it may just work if you leave it alone for a couple of hours | 16:01 |
joga | well you can just forget about most of that | 16:02 |
joga | (unless of course your desktop is Arm also) | 16:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | see | 16:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | ~cssu | 16:02 |
infobot | it has been said that cssu is http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU | 16:02 |
joga | my hunch is that maemo, with all its flaws, is the only usable (as a phone) OS for the phone | 16:02 |
zipR4ND | joga: i see | 16:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | what flaws? | 16:03 |
joga | well mostly UI unfriendliness and "linuxy" "features" that make it quite unenjoyable for a "normal" person | 16:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | errr | 16:03 |
joga | while I personally like it ok after using it for years, but try giving it to a random iphone user and they're lost | 16:04 |
joga | (and so am I with an iphone) | 16:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and you think this will get better when you install e.g. gnome or kde on that tiny screen? | 16:04 |
joga | certainly not | 16:04 |
joga | what I said was that it's the best there is | 16:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for sure | 16:05 |
*** josch has joined #maemo | 16:05 | |
joga | I actually wanted to run wireshark on it and, well, it did work but the UI is pretty cramped with such a tiny screen | 16:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and it's sufficiently up to date as well, for all that really matters, when you use cssu | 16:05 |
joga | full of gtk widgets and stuff | 16:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and for running genuine PC linux apps, there's still easydeb | 16:07 |
TheOnlyJoey|desk | zipR4ND, i recently installed a wheezy chroot using a specific image, let me find it for you | 16:07 |
zipR4ND | TheOnlyJoey|desk: thxx | 16:07 |
*** josch has left #maemo | 16:08 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | while generally you want to adapt and compile your app for fremantle/hildon | 16:08 |
TheOnlyJoey|desk | zipR4ND, i used http://qole.org/files/debian_wheezy3sulu_armhf.img.lzma but you have to use the kernel-power kernel to get it working, since that supports hf | 16:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | unless it's a cmdline binary which usually just need compiling on scratchbox and off you go | 16:08 |

DocScrutinizer05 | too slow | 17:10 |
Snafu777 | Oh, but other than that, no bad issues? | 17:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | well, you can't use your device for a week | 17:10 |
Snafu777 | Heh, I build on mine for everything, but then again, most of the programs I build are small and not that intensive | 17:11 |
*** jmlich has joined #maemo | 17:11 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | and odds are you're wearing out the swap | 17:11 |
Snafu777 | hmm | 17:11 |
DocScrutinizer05 | remember that you got some max 100MB free for the compiler | 17:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | possibly less | 17:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and swap is slooooow | 17:13 |
bencoh | dead slow | 17:14 |
*** zGrr has joined #maemo | 17:15 | |
Snafu777 | Heh | 17:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | maybe you can compile ddate in a easydeb or other chroot (you'll run into trouble trying to install all the libs in real root fs which also is only 245MB total) | 17:16 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for anything larger than that I'd not even bother | 17:16 |
DocScrutinizer05 | cmd: ddate | 17:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | cmd: Today is Boomtime, the 56th day of Confusion in the YOLD 3180 | 17:17 |
Snafu777 | See the part about wearing out swap definately had me concerned. Wasn't it you who said way back when that I shouldnt be concerned about wearing out the hardwear, that the writes available were a ton and whatnot? | 17:17 |
*** b1101 has quit IRC | 17:18 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, that's true for all *normal* usecases, but for sure not for running a gcc swapping like hell for a week (literally) | 17:18 |
*** norayr has joined #maemo | 17:19 | |
Snafu777 | Oh, see the stuff i do compiles in under an hour =) | 17:19 |
Snafu777 | Ok, no worries then =) | 17:19 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, no worries with that | 17:19 |
Snafu777 | what the hell would u try to compile on it that would take a week? | 17:19 |
norayr | hey hey, I am trying to uninstall kernel-power and I do steps described here: http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power#Uninstalling_kernel-power, | 17:19 |
norayr | I did apt-get install --reinstall -y kernel kernel-flasher okay | 17:20 |
Snafu777 | heh, why would u try to uninstall it norayr? | 17:20 |
norayr | but the apt-get remove -y kernel-power kernel-power-modules wants to uninstall 700 packages. | 17:20 |
norayr | because I need uboot-pr13 | 17:20 |
norayr | which does not work with kernel-power, right? | 17:20 |
*** grammoboy has joined #maemo | 17:20 | |
norayr | I need to boot into nemo. | 17:20 |
Snafu777 | No idea. WHy not just flash? I don't think u can easily uninstall it | 17:21 |
*** VDVsx has quit IRC | 17:21 | |
grammoboy | good idea to buy an n9 and put sailfish on it? | 17:21 |
kerio | if you're uninstalling 700 packages, then you probably have cssu-thumb installed | 17:21 |
kerio | do you? | 17:21 |
norayr | minute | 17:21 |
kerio | anyway, you don't need to uninstall kernel power | 17:22 |
norayr | hmmmm, okay | 17:22 |
kerio | do you have cssu-thumb installed? | 17:22 |
norayr | but I cannot have uboot otherwise. | 17:22 |
norayr | no I don't have it | 17:22 |
kerio | iirc u-boot-flasher installs just fine | 17:23 |
kerio | it'll just overwrite the flashed kernel | 17:23 |
norayr | let me try... | 17:23 |
kerio | and then you just install kernel-power-bootimg | 17:23 |
norayr | installing u-boot-flasher. I was installing uboot-pr13 before. | 17:24 |
kerio | yeah, uboot-pr13 is not the supported version afaik | 17:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | what's the name of that app that you can ask google via voice? | 17:25 |
norayr | i have already removed kernel-power and kernel-power-modules | 17:25 |
norayr | should i install them back or install kernel-power-bootimg makes it? | 17:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | never remove kernels | 17:25 |
norayr | yes it makes it | 17:25 |
kerio | i think the bootimg will bring back the modules at least | 17:26 |
norayr | and i will have u-boot after it? i hope so. | 17:26 |
kerio | sure | 17:26 |
norayr | because my usb is broken, and I have asked someone to change the battery for me. | 17:26 |
kerio | ...your usb is broken | 17:27 |
kerio | and you're playing with kernels | 17:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | :-o | 17:27 |
* kerio wants nothing to do with this shit | 17:27 | |
norayr | and I want to use nemo in order to copy all the data from /home etc | 17:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yeah, extremely risky business | 17:27 |
norayr | and then erase smth in home and give it to someone to try to fix it. | 17:27 |
norayr | (: | 17:27 |
kerio | to be fair, after the install it's going to be a bit sturdier | 17:27 |
kerio | norayr: i hope you're aware that maemo can copy files and then delete everything | 17:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I'd install BM | 17:28 |
kerio | i really don't know why you think you need a different OS | 17:28 |
kerio | such a shitty one, too | 17:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | exactly | 17:28 |
*** arcean has joined #maemo | 17:28 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | there's like a megaton of ways to save /home | 17:28 |
kerio | if you want to do heavy duty maintenance you probably want rescueOS | 17:28 |
kerio | but that's for stuff like repartitioning | 17:28 |
kerio | and it's fairly awful to use without usb networking | 17:29 |
norayr | yeah, sure. just I thought it's better to use that because /home contents gets changed at runtime. so some files might be corrupted, like abook.db etc. | 17:30 |
kerio | fair enough | 17:30 |
kerio | but meh | 17:30 |
kerio | it's close to pulling the battery out, to be honest | 17:30 |
norayr | okay, anyway, I'll copy it under maemo, it's indeed better. thank you. | 17:31 |
kerio | and i hope stuff is resilient enough | 17:31 |
kerio | norayr: fix your flashed stuff tho | 17:31 |
norayr | yep | 17:33 |

DocScrutinizer05 | save the backup to card, not to phone | 17:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | then use cp -ar ~user /media/card/mybackup | 17:38 |
norayr | okay. | 17:38 |
norayr | doing it, thank you. | 17:38 |
* Snafu777 is sad. His USB port is good, but the SD card drive is all busted up | 17:39 | |
Snafu777 | Oh well, usb is more useful than sd... | 17:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | o.O | 17:39 |
norayr | that's my second n900's usb port already. | 17:39 |
norayr | i've heard about someone who have managed to fix one n900's usb. | 17:39 |
norayr | hope he can do it. | 17:39 |
Snafu777 | Heh, i've been lucky, i'm on my 2nd or third n900 and i've never had a usb port issue | 17:39 |
* DocScrutinizer05 neither | 17:40 | |
norayr | and I have read about it and always were so careful. | 17:40 |
Snafu777 | I think maybe people are just violent with it | 17:40 |

DocScrutinizer05 | (fingernails) and what's maybe more important factor for no USB fatalities: never grab the USB plug on the wide sides | 18:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you can also pull it out without using (non-existent) fingernails, by simply grabbing the small sides with your winger tips and then pressing and rolling the fingertips against the case body | 18:52 |

*** BitEvil has quit IRC | 20:51 | |
elias_a | kerio: I guess Spadolini is an Italian name... | 20:51 |
*** SpeedEvil has joined #maemo | 20:52 | |
elias_a | kerio: In Finland where I live we have 3 languages used in tv programmes. | 20:53 |
kerio | 1) dubs ruin art | 20:53 |
kerio | 2) embedding every language in a single file means that you have to download all audio streams regardless | 20:53 |
kerio | which is suboptimal, for something that's supposed to be "web video" | 20:53 |
elias_a | kerio: Sports events are always commented in 2 languages, finnish and swedish. | 20:53 |
elias_a | kerio: So how do you watch content shown on tv using the web service? | 20:55 |
kerio | no clue | 20:55 |
Humpelstilzchen | .o0(flash) | 20:55 |
elias_a | kerio: They are now including subs. | 20:55 |
kerio | either a separate audio stream, but then you have sync issues | 20:55 |
kerio | or two different video streams | 20:55 |
kerio | but then you can't freely switch between languages | 20:55 |
elias_a | kerio: Do you live in a monolingual country? | 20:56 |
kerio | i do | 20:56 |
kerio | but i don't see how that's relevant in a discussion about the efficiency of a media container designed for web browsers | 20:56 |
elias_a | This discussion is quite interesting because these issues are quite meaningful in multilingual countrise. | 20:57 |
elias_a | kerio: I can understand that. What I'm telling you is that a media container that cannot handle multiple languages in both audio and subs is useless in multilingual countries. | 20:58 |
elias_a | Of course you can go the imho idiot's way like in Belgium: different tv channels for different language audiences and that's it. | 20:59 |
elias_a | But, imho that is just dead stupid. | 20:59 |
kerio | if efficiency is an issue you simply can't send all the audio streams together in a single bundle | 21:00 |
elias_a | kerio: The real question is whether technical efficiency is more important than language support. | 21:01 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sure, we need more efficiency. We get LTE now, and octocores in mobile equipment. We damn sure better create something efficient now ;-P | 21:01 |
kerio | 8 cores, 2 of which are used by the modem chip | 21:01 |
Humpelstilzchen | .o0(sports game with different commentators) | 21:01 |
elias_a | kerio: The answer is really simple: language support is far more important. | 21:02 |
elias_a | Humpelstilzchen: What's so odd about that? :O | 21:02 |
kerio | yeah | 21:03 |
kerio | it's kinda neat | 21:03 |
elias_a | Humpelstilzchen: The logic is simple: we have a language minority a part of which really do not understand Finnish. | 21:05 |
elias_a | Humpelstilzchen: It is relatively cheap to have an extra commentator speaking Swedish. | 21:05 |
elias_a | And it is far more simple than negotiating with the swedes about co-operation :D | 21:06 |
