* merlin1991 didn't realize, that his cssu build env is on his desktop, not laptop11:27
merlin1991gotta do the release tonight then11:27
FatPhilDocScrutinizer05: Welte will be stage 3 or 4 of the process. I'm wondering whether threatening to involve Welte should be the third step, before actually really involving him.11:46
FatPhilMy ex-boss (job I quit last week) was a fairly good friend of Welte, so I do have quite an easy informal "in" with him, I hope.11:46
DocScrutinizer05well, with me you got a similar "in" to him ;)11:49
DocScrutinizer05we shared the openmoko apartment in Taipei11:49
DocScrutinizer05and funny enough he's from same town as I am11:50

FatPhilOh, I rewrote most of powertop in perl, so that it's portable to any arch/distro12:07
FatPhilAnd then a workmate rewrote that in awk, so that it would run on devices which didn't come with perl!12:08
DocScrutinizer05great! :-D12:09
* jonwil wonders if there are other Nokia license violations for N900/Fremantle other than powertop out there for us to look into12:26
jonwilI suspect there are but nothing worth putting any effort into12:27
jonwilThat said, I do wonder about the license of PulseAudio as I seem to remember that some parts are LGPL and others are GPL12:29
jonwiland whether that affects Pulseaudio as used on the N90012:29
jonwilthat said, I dont think Nokia Legal would have been dumb enough to allow PulseAudio bits to be shipped if the GPL applied to them (and hence covered their secret sauce)12:36

peetahjonwil: that could be worth enough to check in details :)14:44
jonwilThere is a mention in the changelog of "Remove libsamplerate, the Sekret Rabbit code, for good on maemo.", whatever that means14:47
*** joshgillies has joined #maemo-ssu14:49
Palijonwil: what and where it is written?14:51
jonwilthe changelog entry I just said is in the changelog for puilseaudio14:54
jonwilpulseaudio14:54
jonwila grep of the PulseAudio source tree for Fremantle shows no code with the string "GNU General Public License" in it so it appears as though its LGPL15:05
jonwilok, I think I see the story now, the story is that PulseAudio is notionally LGPL BUT the core links to libsamplerate which is GPL15:09
jonwilhence the GPL/LGPL distinction in the license files and such15:09
jonwiland the changelog entry15:09
jonwili.e. "remove this thing so that we can ship something that is LGPL clean"15:09
Palijonwil: can you check if libsamplerate is really GPL?15:10
jonwilits not linked into Pulseaudio as shipped with Fremantle so its license doesn't matter as far as I can see15:10
Palijonwil: something which I forgot which can be usefull for RE: hildon status bar usb plugin15:12
PaliI wanted to have it more configurable, but closed source I cannot modify15:12
jonwilPR1.0 pulseaudio version is 0.9.15-1maemo27+0m5 according to http://maemo.org/packages/view/pulseaudio/ and changelog entry says version 0.9.9-1maemo315:12
jonwilok, hildon-status-bar-USB I think I can reverse engineer15:12
Palijonwil: we have fremantle PA git tree on cssu gitorious15:13
Paliyou can check it15:13
Palijonwil: ok nice, something which you maybe ca finally RE and which can be usefull15:14
PaliI wanted to have function for turning off pcsuite/mass modes and maybe adding usb network (and/or configure it)15:15
Palijonwil: also profile control panel widget can be usefull for RE: because it support only two profiles (silent, general)15:16
Paliand no support for adding new profile15:17
Palibut maybe this is already RE/reimplemented in extras(-devel)15:17
jonwilanyhow, I find no evidence that pulseaudio was ever shipped by Nokia as a binary in a way that contained GPL code15:28
jonwilwhich means there is no license violation15:28
Palijonwil: what is license of speex and vorbis?15:31
Palithat libraries are modified and closed by nokia15:32
Palimodification is not available (at least I was not able to find it)15:32
Palino answer here yet :-( https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/10/11/53315:48
Palifatphil: maybe you should cc all people who signed that commit15:55
*** wmarone__ has joined #maemo-ssu16:09
*** wmarone_ has quit IRC16:12
jonwilspeex and vorbis are BSD-esque16:15
jonwilhttp://www.speex.org/docs/manual/speex-manual/node15.html16:15
jonwilso no violation in that16:16
jonwilFatPhil: ping16:19

jonwilPali: ping16:27
Palijonwil: pong16:29
PaliI'm here16:29
jonwilso yeah no violation for speex or vorbis16:33
jonwilgoing to see what I can do with hildon-status-bar-usb soonish16:33
Paliok16:36
Paliit looks like arm neon patches for speex are public: http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/speex-dev/2011-September/008238.html16:37
jonwilyeah but the DSP bits are not16:40
FatPhiljonwil: pong16:41
jonwilnow I cant remember why I wanted to talk to you :P16:41
freemangordonjonwil: DSP bits?16:41
FatPhilnp16:41
jonwil libspeexdsp1,  libspeexdsp1-dbg,  libspeexdsp-dev16:42
jonwilactually that may not be true316:45
jonwilI cant tell from how the packages are built whether the patches that are posted are all the Nokia-only changes in the binaries under http://repository.maemo.org/pool/maemo5.0/non-free/s/speex/ or not16:45
freemangordonhmm, afaik DSP is not involved there16:45
jonwilthe names say DSP16:45
freemangordonI know, but in order to have something wunning on DSP, there should be a codec node in /lib/dsp16:46
freemangordon*running16:46
jonwilbut you are right, they appear to be standard packages16:46
jonwiland not Maemo or ARM or TI specific packages16:46
jonwilpackage in question comes from the same source as libspeex-dev etc and seems to just be an addon library to libspeex16:48
jonwilprobably called DSP because it is doing digital signal processing things16:48
freemangordonyep16:48
jonwilyeah speex homepage confirms16:49
jonwilso the only question is whether the patches posted to that ML are all the changs in the non-free repo or if there is more to it16:49
jonwilgiven the changelog entries for -nokia stuff, I bet its not all of them16:49
jonwilthere is definatly mention in the changelog of "fixes nokia internal bug blah"16:50
jonwilso its obviously Nokia-specific changes16:50
jonwiland that patchset is from TI not Nokia16:50
jonwiloh wait no I mis-read16:51
jonwilwait no, thise ARE from TI16:52
jonwilthose16:52
freemangordonjonwil: shouldn't matter, as long as those patches are only optimizations16:53
jonwilso those patches are nice but not what Nokia are shipping16:53
jonwili.e. no reason we cant use em16:53
jonwilbut using em wont give us the same bits as Nokia16:53
freemangordonbut if there is some extra functionality...16:53
jonwilwe have no way to know what the Nokia changes did16:54
jonwilshort of reverse engineering libspeex and libspeexdsp16:54
jonwilwhich I for one dont want to spend time doing :P16:54
jonwilok, time to dig into hildon-status-bar-usb :)16:56

Palijonwil: if you write some status bar code, please can you use gtk code style?17:23
jonwilwill see what I can do but I make no promises :P17:23
Paligtk code style is better for reading gtk code17:23
Palilook for example at battery statusbar code17:23

Palifreemangordon: gstreamer on maemo/cssu does not have rtmp plugin which is needed for lot of online streams22:35
Paliit is part of some gst-plugins-bad/ugly package22:35
freemangordonyep, maemo gstreamer is old22:35
PaliI will look why it is missing... and if we have old version, it is possible update?22:35
freemangordonI guess we can try to raise the version22:35
freemangordonbut iirc there was some libc dependency22:36
Palimaybe plugin from new version can be recompiled for maemo22:36
freemangordonMaybe we should ask aapo for help22:36
freemangordonwell, it i sbetetr to have the whole gst upgraded. if possuble22:36
Palibtw, do you know if (qt)mediaplayer support online video streams?22:37
freemangordonafaik yes22:37
freemangordonPali: BTW bq driver not always detects charger at boot22:37
freemangordonif at all :)22:38
Palifreemangordon: kp or upstream?22:39
freemangordonor statusbar plugin doesn't check what is the state on the first load22:39
freemangordonupstream22:39
Paliok, then problem can be in isp module22:40
freemangordonisp?22:40
Paliisp170422:40
Palithat doing charger detection22:40
freemangordonooh22:40
freemangordonI am thinking ISP, as in camera subsys :)22:41
