CosmoHillreading about the atom, the chipset seems to use more power than the processor00:46
tripzeromore and more of the chipset functionality is moving inside the processor00:47

CosmoHilli don't like the way netbooks seem to be moving towards low powered small laptops01:02
microlithmoving towrads?01:02
microlithtowards*01:02
microlithI think that was their intention, no?01:02
thiago_homewhat should they be moving towards?01:03
CosmoHilli mean they are getting bigger and having hard drives01:03
CosmoHilllike the 9" dell with 8GB / 16GB SSD is now a 10" with a 160GB hard drive01:03

CosmoHilli think my server would be improved by the via padlock01:33
* microlith wonders what's different01:33
CosmoHillit would improve ssh performace01:34
microlithhardware AES?01:34
CosmoHillyep01:34
microlithsome of the newer core chips from intel have AES acceleration stuff01:34
microliththat'll probably be pretty common soon01:34
CosmoHillmy server is a P3 copermine01:34

CosmoHillfirst week with my server in my room took me a while01:42
lcukyeah arjan01:42
CosmoHillarjan: but I'm a mortal, i can't afford them01:42
lcukCosmoHill, my n900 has 32gb01:42
CosmoHillhell, toping up the car was a shock01:42
CosmoHill$74 USD for a full tank01:43
ShadowJKwhat kind of tank is that..01:43
CosmoHill45L01:43
lcukuse alternative sources of fuel01:43
lcukbut as with all advice, your mileage may vary01:43
ShadowJKIt's just silly how far ahead the intel first generation SSDs were of everything else, and then intel comes out with g2 and slashed price.. It's just brutal :-)01:44
CosmoHillhttp://cosmo1847.co.uk/?page=server01:45
CosmoHillhere's my server specs01:45
CosmoHillyou can also read a little about me01:45
ShadowJKheh, I threw out my P3 and replaced it with a Intel D945GCLF2 board (dual core atom 330)01:47
CosmoHilli was pondering that01:47
*** anselmolsm has quit IRC01:47
ShadowJKThere's a newer board from intel available now, with the memory controller and GPU integrated into the processor01:48
ShadowJKIt seems to be fanless too... Although I don't think anyone's D945GCLF2's fan lasted more than a month or two anyway :)01:48
CosmoHillhttp://black-flag.co.uk/files/server/DSC_0284.JPG01:48
CosmoHillyes, that is a 80mm fan mounted onto the hard drives01:49
ShadowJKThe 5000-ish rpm drives from WD and Samsung are both cheap and quiet :)01:50
ShadowJKnot as quiet as SSD, of course..01:50
ShadowJKand cool01:50
CosmoHillthey seem cool01:51
CosmoHilli think they came out after i got mine01:51

arachnistShadowJK: recently i bought 6 samsung drives. 5 of them died within first 3 days01:56
arachnistShadowJK: 1.5TB ones01:57
arachnistgot seagates as a replacement01:57
ShadowJKAfter the seagate firmware fail I've started backing up to a drive from another manufacturer01:57
arachnistwell01:58
ShadowJKso I have a mix of sg, samsung and wd01:58
arachnistthose seagates are in raidz201:58
arachnistso 2 of them can die before i actually lose data01:58
*** anselmolsm has joined #meego01:58
CosmoHilli ended up with about 7 samsung spinpoiints01:59
ShadowJKThe fun thing about that seagate firmware failure was that the drives would fail when a counter reached a certain value, so in raid situations where the drives were powered on/off at the same time and had run for approximately similar lengths of time, it was very common to see all the drives in the raid array fail at the same time :)01:59
CosmoHilli would have more if my supplier did them in 7600rpm01:59

CosmoHillmy server has one 200GB ATA and two 500GB SATA RAID 102:01
microlithShadowJK: for a very, very strange definition of "fun" :p02:02
ShadowJKmicrolith :)02:02
ShadowJKmicrolith, some russians eventually reverse engineered the diagnostic port on the seagate drives and found a way to talk to the controller and "fix" it.. it involved booting the board without the drive connected, then hot-connecting the drive and executing some strange incantations in the drive board's OS :)02:03
CosmoHillit's funny if it's not your array02:03
microlithShadowJK: now that's cool, if a bit scary02:03
microlithspeaking of diagnostic ports, if no one else is going to do it I should borrow some equipment at work and find out which of the pads in the battery compartment go to the serial port02:04

jacquesdupontdi had a dream02:13
CosmoHilldoes it invole meego on a powerbook?02:13
jacquesdupontdin fact i saw time after time that phones were starting from sort of html ui02:14
jacquesdupontdand then they began to start using flash for smoothie effects02:14
*** ScriptRipper has joined #meego02:14
jacquesdupontdeverybody agrees this fact ?02:14

jacquesdupontdyep02:15
CosmoHillflash doesn't even run well on my laptop02:15
jacquesdupontddo you know about new possibilities with html5 ?02:15
lcukjacquesdupontd, back to your dream02:15
lcukmost people dont normally specify versions in dream sequences ;)02:16
jacquesdupontdthey did really great stuff in order to avoid flash02:16
jacquesdupontdhaha02:16
lcuktho ive been told i discuss code in sleep02:16
*** anselmolsm has quit IRC02:17
jacquesdupontdthat way im thinking there's a really really good opportunity comming back to simple html ui's that are able to be as beautiful as flash ui's and a lot lot lot less powerneeding02:17
*** puffin_ has joined #meego02:17
jacquesdupontdi'm like tesla, i'm lucid drreams where i build things and repair them and then when i wake up i just build it perfectly02:17
*** anselmolsm has joined #meego02:17
jacquesdupontddreams=dreamer02:18
lcukcool, what sort of stuff have you built?02:18
*** SjB_ has quit IRC02:18
lcuki just follow ideas i have, sometimes as im dropping off to sleep i have to make notes02:19
jacquesdupontdno but seriously there's a good oportunity to crash that flash s.... and get back to easy and beautiful ui's that are not taking by themself half of the device power02:19
*** wazd has quit IRC02:19
lcukim being serious, what sort of stuff have you built!02:19
lcuki understand what you are saying perfectly02:20
arjanone suggestion; don't irc-sleep ;-)02:20
arjanthat's worse than irc-while-drunk02:20
jacquesdupontdand you can't disagree that fact, today's ui, i mean the most beautiful ones aren't enought intuitive to be built to that point02:20
jacquesdupontdnah i just took drugs02:20

jacquesdupontdno seriously for now i didn't do anythings02:20
CosmoHillirc sleep?02:21
jacquesdupontdi'm simply suggesting cause i'm bulding a tabletcomputer02:21
jacquesdupontdand i'm at the software state, i'm trying many of those existing , including moblin, those mid ubuntu distrib, mer, etc... and my choice was to make a device better than a netbook02:22
CosmoHillthat reminds me02:22
CosmoHilli thought the ipad was going to take out the modbook02:22
GeneralAntillesDoes anybody object to the Who's Who page being groups more meaningfully and alphabetized?02:22
CosmoHillbut the ipad is just an upsaled ipod touch02:22
jacquesdupontdcause i dont like when things are just "Working" i want them to run fast02:23
CosmoHillGeneralAntilles: sounds good to me02:23
lcukjacquesdupontd, what the video02:23
lcukwatch even02:23
arjanGeneralAntilles: go wild02:23
* lcuk should irc sleep 02:23
lcuklol  GeneralAntilles02:23
CosmoHillif I'm on IRC i'm normally awake02:23
CosmoHillhowever in the summer i normally fall sleep in the afternoon02:23
GeneralAntillesWell, except for the fact that I can't actually edit anything on the wiki.02:24
GeneralAntillesNevermind then.02:24
*** ScriptRipper has quit IRC02:24
jacquesdupontdi don't wanna see anylag in a tablet that is also a beautiful object, to me it's like doing half work and lying to custemers selling them something shinny and then just working enought to go on internet, and well yes it goes on internet, tbut then they have to buy 1 computer for work , one for travelling, one for personnal use, one for kitchen02:24
*** Eli2_ has quit IRC02:25
GeneralAntillesUgh, let's play the "try to get your email address re-confirmed" game.02:25
lcukso jacquesdupontd how are you going to go about it02:25
jacquesdupontdthat i was i prefer selling a tablet at 600 or 700 boxes working pefectly for different uses adaptating itself to the place you are by changing the UI to be used etc ...02:26
* GeneralAntilles can see meego.com isn't having any more fun with SSO than maemo.org.02:26
CosmoHillSSO?02:26
jacquesdupontdi don't know for now what's gonna be the bast02:26
jacquesdupontdbase02:26
lcuksingle sign on02:26
jacquesdupontdi'm thinking of a ubuntu-minimal02:26
*** jmpdelos_ has joined #meego02:26
lcukjacquesdupontd, but all these different sizes are going to need different uis to work02:26
CosmoHillbuild your own distro02:26
*** ibz has quit IRC02:27
*** jku has quit IRC02:27
jacquesdupontdand then either taking a window manager like kde which's getting really beautiful, and modifying it in order to be used with different profiles, well 2 big profile, 1 = bluetooth keyboard and mouse when i come back home, means normal resolution and computer UI, the other : finger use and internet browsing when big buttons but still beautiful02:27
CosmoHillif i was a mute a table would be awesome02:28
CosmoHillit's like a small white board with wifi02:28
jacquesdupontdCosmoHill i can't build my own distro's first cause i don't have that much time, and then cause there's some already done that i like, ubuntu, maemo (more for little mid) that can be used and then modified02:28
*** puffin_ has quit IRC02:28
jacquesdupontdwhat's sure is that i'll base it on debian02:28
jacquesdupontdthen i'll build my stuff for the 2 big UIS02:29
CosmoHillI can build a basic distro in about 2 days02:29
*** jmpdelos__ has joined #meego02:29
jacquesdupontdi want them to be changeable in a hand movement and the keyboard and mouse connected by the fact the tablet came back to your room02:29
jacquesdupontdthinking about using rfid02:29
*** jmpdelos has quit IRC02:29
jacquesdupontdCosmoHill really ?02:30
CosmoHill:)02:30
arjanbuilding a distro is not all that hard02:30
jacquesdupontdcause the thing is i'm quite alone in my project02:30
CosmoHillfollowing a book that is02:30
jacquesdupontdi know02:30
jacquesdupontdbut in 2 days :)02:30
arjanbuilding one that works fast and does what you want... different story02:30
jacquesdupontdyeah02:30
CosmoHilljacquesdupontd: if i skip the tests and use my new laptop it would be a lot faster02:30
jacquesdupontddon't you think the debian base is completly enough nowadays ?02:30
arjanjacquesdupontd: depends on what you want02:30
arjanesp how much you want to customize02:31
lcukbuilding a distro:02:31
lcuk(1) steal underpants02:31
lcuk(2) ???02:31
lcuk(3) profit02:31
jacquesdupontdi wanna make a device that can evolve very easily even as much as a desktop computer i wanna offer the possibility to people not to be restricted for a marketing reason02:31
*** jmpdelos_ has quit IRC02:31
jacquesdupontdi'm sure we can still make money being a good guy02:31
*** jmpdelos has joined #meego02:32
CosmoHilljacquesdupontd: I've built a distro for x86, ultrasparc and ppc02:32
lcukjacquesdupontd, when you say beautiful, what do you base beauty on02:33
jacquesdupontdi'm thinking that if you got the trust of clients that they see you're not lying to them, not trying to avoid the possibility for them to upgrade their stuff alone, if you show them that you're not taking them for childs but taking care about people not in an advanced state, that will make a so big change compared to other compagnies that you gonna get a place02:33
CosmoHillhmm02:33
jacquesdupontdi wanna bet on that02:33
jacquesdupontdbeautiful means02:33
CosmoHillone of the guys in irc went into apple and asked about a known problem with the 27" imac02:33
CosmoHillperson working there said there was no problem and he walked out02:33
CosmoHill£1300 less for them02:34
*** jmpdelos__ has quit IRC02:34
jacquesdupontdclear : intuitive, intelligent, close to us, the one that you nearly wanna touch to see if its really smooth02:34
jacquesdupontddo you understand ? and that's the point cause we are in a touchable device02:34
lcuklike, give examples where you have seen such things02:34
arjanjacquesdupontd: develop software like that .... but it likely doesnt depend on what OS you use as base, be it meego or whatever02:34
lcukyou couldv just described a fart in a bubble bath02:34
jacquesdupontdeffects are relaly appreciated, for me something between, os x mobile and compiz could be cool02:34
CosmoHillbah02:35
CosmoHillapple bastards02:35
jacquesdupontdcause compiz is really good when well set, but i think it needs to get simplified for a good ui02:35
lcukright, so iphone ui02:35
jacquesdupontdCosmoHill i know, but i have to admit things02:35
jacquesdupontdwhen i use an iphone, it just works02:35
* CosmoHill is still trying to workout the rules on swearing02:35
arjancompiz looks fun for a few minutes, and then you turn it off02:35
jacquesdupontdwich is not the case of all device02:35
lcukapart from when it doesnt02:35
arjanat least that seems to be the common pattern02:35
lcukhow would you handle multi processes in that environment?02:36
jacquesdupontdwe can discuss 10 hours about it that won't change, i really dislike apple and they are one reason i'm starting a device02:36
lcukcos everything yo urun will eat into that beauty02:36
CosmoHillarjan: lol02:36
lcuki hope fart isnt a swear word02:36
jacquesdupontdi ran multiprocess in my iphone, but anyway i'm not talking about the environment i told you i was prefering debian for base, jsut talking about the UI02:36
lcukits descriptive02:36
CosmoHillyour from england right, lcuk02:36
lcukyes02:37
jacquesdupontdeasy to see that everybody tried to copy iphone ui when the first iphone got out02:37
lcuknahh, not everyone02:37
CosmoHilla problem i have in my irc channel is that the english and the americans concider different things rude02:37
*** Troy54 has joined #meego02:37
lcukanyway, iphone is sluggish02:37
lcukdoesnt do what i want02:37
lcuklow res02:37
jacquesdupontdi mean, it doesn't have to be the same, as i said i want people to be able to control their device, not to be slave of it , but we have to admit that everybody knows how to use an iphone in 1 hours maximum02:37
*** dl9pf has joined #meego02:37
lcukclosed source02:38
jacquesdupontdthat's what i call intuitive, if we could mix that intuitivity to possibilities and confidence, that would be perfect02:38
CosmoHillthe iphone doesn't meet my requirments02:38
*** dl9pf_ has quit IRC02:38
lcuk“Sequence shortened”02:38
CosmoHillyou can only use the bluetooth with other iphones02:38
lcukno keyboard02:38
jacquesdupontdwe stop talking about iphones thazt's not the point i'm not building an iphone02:38
jacquesdupontdi'm just building an ipad that is not a big iphone, that's the point :)02:39
lcukwe get it, you want something that acts like an iphone02:39
CosmoHilllike the lg pop?02:39
jacquesdupontdyesterday i was thinking and i was imaginating MS making a big tablet, and putting ms mobile on it and i was so laughtingh02:40
lcukjacquesdupontd, have you seen the always innovating touchbook02:40
jacquesdupontdnobody would accept it and would think its a false device found on ebay hong kong02:40
jacquesdupontdlcuk yes02:40
jacquesdupontdand there are near to what i'm donig but details or not the same02:40
jacquesdupontdcause they've bet on beagle boards, i'm betting on normal board02:41
lcuktheres also this cool new project too02:41
lcukyou mightv heard about it02:41
lcukcalled meego02:41
jacquesdupontdi'm just looking at the past, see netbooks02:41
jacquesdupontdwhat are netbooks configurations nowadays ? ALL THE SAME02:41
jacquesdupontdand people gonna reproduce the thing with tablet02:41

jacquesdupontdand french like me02:42
jacquesdupontddon't you agree ?02:43
jacquesdupontdyou know i'm just getting point of view here and i wanna be countered if you guys has better ideas or think about things that i'm not aware of02:44
arjandoing your own hardware is a risk ;)02:44

jacquesdupontdbtw if anybody would like to work on the project knowing that i can't promess anything but i have good reason to think it can be a good oportunity to launch a good project and at the same time to be builders of the future02:44
lcukjacquesdupontd, go read up about meego02:45

jacquesdupontdi wanna use some existing motherboards on the beginning02:45
*** Eli2_ has joined #meego02:45
jacquesdupontdyou know i'm not expecting or hoping to make the best device and the best way, what i'm sure of is the price of my device, what'll be able to do, and how it will be made02:46
jacquesdupontdand only with that we can make a lot better than what's existing , then after bank pass, i'll be thinking about optimising02:46
*** jmpdelos_ has joined #meego02:47
jacquesdupontdthe first point is not to be selfish02:47
lcukjacquesdupontd, Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your blog.02:48
jacquesdupontdfor me that's amazing to think that nowadays , you can buy a 300 euros real laptop, and if you're just a little bit ingenious build your own tablet with the ui you want and have if for really cheaper than worst devices supposed to represent the futur02:49

ali1234i compiled my first rpm in mock02:52
ali1234now pulling all the moblin source02:52
ali1234i'm keeping notes02:52
ali1234setting up mock for moblin was not exactly easy02:52
arjanali1234: what was the chroot issue ?02:53
lcukali1234, cool, so you got over the issue of chrooting the chroot generting mock02:53
*** seiflotfy has quit IRC02:53
jacquesdupontdthat's really cool02:53
ali1234the chroot issue was: my mock temp dir was not set stick for group permissions (g+s) and then my scratch disk was mounted as nodev, nosuid02:53
arjanhehe nosuid will do it02:53
jacquesdupontdthis are the stuff i don't have time to do, cause if i wanna have something ready before ipad, even if it's not that important to be before them cause i'm not pointing the exact same customers, i have to go fast anyway02:54
ali1234nodev actually killed it first: permission denied on /dev/null for some perl script02:54
*** seiflotfy_ has quit IRC02:54
jacquesdupontdhehe02:54

arjannot having /dev/null makes things go splat very very quickly02:55
*** zs has quit IRC02:56
jacquesdupontdguys we all know that is the time of touch book now like it was the time of netbook just before, and for those who've made tablets years ago they were not unerstanding customers state in computers at this moment02:56
jacquesdupontdthat's why it went down, it's like do you remember the first visio phones ?02:56
jacquesdupontdexactly same story02:56
ali1234personally i think now is the time of the smartbook02:56
ali1234because for me anything without a keyboard is useless02:56
ali1234and a large exposed screen is just asking for it do get sat on and broken02:56
jacquesdupontdwhen a big compagnie like Apple is dictating the world and giving the start for the fight, you have to look at the near past and to take your chance to make the challenge and to show them that this time they shouldn't have waited to long to evolve02:57
ali1234heh... let apple create the demand with their marketing, then offer something cheaper and better02:58
ali1234like i said the other day... everyone wants to be the second person to do something02:58
jacquesdupontdcause as they're alone to be shown as smart and designers, they can do whatever they want people won't have choices to have better, they could do the ipad v10 right now, but they are using the first rule in marketting , one idea after another02:58

jacquesdupontdyou can be sure that if any thing is working for everybody that played in it means teams of existing ui's if i'm using some will be helped in a way or another03:04
jacquesdupontdas i told you i think there's for sure a way to do good things fairly and sill be working and earning money enought to continue03:05
ali1234hmm i bet there are a lot of srpms that begin with l03:05

lcukand i bet it took a lot longer than a week03:09
jacquesdupontdbut i dont' see what's hard in installing a ubuntu or debian based to be precise, and just to set it the way you think with existing apps, that's a good start, that's what did edubuntu , ubuntu studio etc .....03:09
jacquesdupontdthen if things are getting good you be surely thinking about building your own system03:09
jacquesdupontdbut i don't think i've got the time to do it now, we can start with existing things and then have money = time = possiblities = people = enthousiasm = concrete03:10

jacquesdupontdbut i think it's a little bit too early03:11
ali1234at this rate it's gonna take me more than a wekk just to get the moblin source03:12

*** sheepbat has joined #meego03:12
jacquesdupontdbut the thing is until all devices are able to connect to the internet really easily and without paying the price of 1 week food03:13
ali1234yeah that's the problem03:13
jacquesdupontdwe'll have to make them discover other os's by the fact they are changing now of devices03:13
ali1234(with server based computing)03:14
ali1234you always need the server03:14
jacquesdupontdms and apple were a problem cause they were god of PCs but now we are changing the devices, people will accept a lot easier to change the interface, and we saw it with netbooks03:14
ali1234so you end up paying silly amounts for always-on connection03:14
jacquesdupontdyep03:14
jacquesdupontdbut i've got my ideas on it03:14
jacquesdupontdbut would be a total different way of thinking the internet and servers03:15
jacquesdupontdwould be based on neightbourhood03:15
*** gaveen has quit IRC03:15
ali1234well, you know, the internet isn't the end-all of networks03:15
jacquesdupontdto seperate the internet not in humans but in bench of humans03:15
ali1234avahi?03:15
jacquesdupontdthat's hard to explain03:15
jacquesdupontdbut the principe is together we are stronger, and that's the same for computers03:16
ali1234if you encrypt everything you can just push your messages to everyone in range, in the hopes that eventually one of them will go in range of the recipient03:16
jacquesdupontdwe already see community of people sharing the wifi connection03:16
jacquesdupontdmy idea is based on that way of thinking03:16
ali1234add a bit of intelligence (ie looking at who knows who from their social networking profiles) and that could work very well03:17
jacquesdupontdviruses knows the most way what i'm saying03:17
ShadowJKmesh networking?03:17
jacquesdupontdali1234 exactly !!03:17
ali1234not mesh networking, i'm thinking more like email03:17
jacquesdupontdali1234 happy to see someone thinking things are possible03:17
ali1234or like the old fidonet where everything goes through multiple nodes and takes sometimes days anyway03:17
DocScrutinizerfidonet - yeehaa03:18
ali1234so alice emails bob, but bob is out of range of the avahi network. but on the social network we see bob lives with colin, who is in range. so the message goes to colin's machine, and when he gets home it gets delivered to bob03:18
arjanthis sounds like usenet03:19

*** neary has left #meego03:19
jacquesdupontdali1234 that's prolly what im thinking of, a p2 multiple peer but with near neighboorhood with antennas and wimax i dont' know03:20

ShadowJKthe HAMs have this aprs system that relays things.. kinda cool03:20
*** wihi has joined #meego03:21
jacquesdupontdali1234 that was an understandable example but for not that protocol03:21
fnordian900ali1234, check out dtnrg.org for delay tolerant networking. sounds like what you are interested in.03:22
jacquesdupontdali1234 jus to explain base of my tought03:22
jacquesdupontdthat's why i need not to handle all that by myselft :)03:22
jacquesdupontdi can't be awaare of everything all the time03:23
ali1234well, the delay is less important than the routing, i think03:23
jacquesdupontdtotally agree03:24
fnordian900i've had the DTN2 reference implementation working over bluetooth, tcp/ip with avahi disccovery and over ax25 with ham radio gear. also good for data mules.03:24
jacquesdupontda good routing is the most needed03:24
jacquesdupontdbluetooth ?03:24
ali1234specifically, selecting a route/peer using your social networking data03:24
fnordian900it supports delay tolernt link state routin.03:24
fnordian900dtn directly over layer-2 bluetooth03:25
jacquesdupontdinteresting03:25
ali1234i run synergy over bluetooth sockets, it is win :)03:25
jacquesdupontdwell everybody's got bluetooth now03:25
fnordian900ran nicely on N800. not tried on N900 yet.03:26
jacquesdupontdi tried03:26

jacquesdupontdwell we've made some transfert and it was reaching the 100 and more KO/s with a computer03:27
jacquesdupontdgreat03:27
jacquesdupontdmaemo is surely what i'll try to use if build a little device03:27
jacquesdupontdi tried android yesterday03:28
fnordian900not meego?03:28
jacquesdupontdon a computer03:28
jacquesdupontdmeego is moblin so yes :)03:28
jacquesdupontdi'm already using moblin03:28
jacquesdupontdi think thats the best ui for touchable computer for now03:28
jacquesdupontdbut for my device wich is a real laptop computer based on a sempron, i'm using a debian base03:29
jacquesdupontdbuilt with moblin03:29
ali1234android is kind of boring without the google sign-on03:29
jacquesdupontdbut as i told you on smaller devices i would use maemo like meego is going to do03:29
jacquesdupontdreally boring03:29
ali1234no apps, no maps, what's the point?03:29
jacquesdupontdi didn't liked it at all03:29
fnordian900was running #! on my eee but its ext2 is buggered, so may wipe it and try the first public meego on it03:29
jacquesdupontdok i was on a computer but, not intuitive at all03:30
jacquesdupontdthe ui is cold03:30
jacquesdupontdi tried also chrome os03:31
ali1234me too, it's just chrome fullscreen... again, pointless03:31
jacquesdupontdsame here, the maximised windows that tells you not to look behind is getting me frustrated03:31

jacquesdupontdthe fact is , i want my computer to do THINGS03:33
ali1234although i guess html5 has that offline stuff03:33

jacquesdupontdand false 3d ui's with artefact when moving03:34
jacquesdupontdthat's the mots horrible for me, i prefer a way more a 2d simple UI reacting perfectly than a false 3d one trying to copy some other's seen and lagging as hell (but it works they'll say, look at my beagle board, it's very little)03:35

microlithpeople bash the iphone, but frankly until it came out few people gave a damn about having a smartphone03:41
microlithat least in the US03:41
ali1234very true03:41
jacquesdupontdLinuxCode that's crap for us, advanced user thazt understand easily how that's crap (my iphone is multitask anyway) but for poeple lambda people they just see smooth intuitive working device and think that after all it's a long time they've been searching a working and beautiful device03:41
jacquesdupontdthat's all they see03:41
ali1234people shouldn't get so worked up over the iphone, it isn't reducing the market for alternatives at all. that market was always tiny to begin with.03:42
ShadowJKclaiming an interface is intuitive automatically makes you a moron imo :)03:42
ali1234it's hard to sell linux on people until they've been burned by windows (for example)03:42
jacquesdupontdso now either we choose to sell devices to our geek friend that will sell us their device too and we stay alone with our advance in awareness or we take care of people search trying not to fool them at the same time and btw making them understand what means multitask03:43

Andy80LinuxCode: Maemo + Moblin = MeeGo, that's all03:52
jacquesdupontd's03:52
LinuxCodeAndy80, so we will get a upgrade for N900 ?03:52
jacquesdupontdseems no03:53
jacquesdupontdfrom what i've heard03:53
eeanmmeego doesn't change anything for harmattan03:53
ShadowJKMeego changes nothing for N90003:53
jacquesdupontdthey didn't planned to put meego on n90003:53
Andy80LinuxCode: you'll have the same applications of Nxxxx, isn't enough for you?03:53
LinuxCodehaha03:53
ShadowJK(and Harmattan has never promised for N900)03:53
jacquesdupontdthe ui's a lot better sorry03:53
LinuxCodeAndy80, nope fine03:53
jacquesdupontdso yes it's changing things for n900 owners03:53
eeanmI bet the community gets harmattan running on the n900 :)03:53
LinuxCodebut a system that can be flashed onto old devices would be preferred03:54
eeanmbut anyways fremantle kicks ass, so I wouldn't worry about it.03:54
jacquesdupontdLinuxCode if everybody had the same way of thinking, at least that how i see the furtur03:54
jacquesdupontdnot forgetting old device to have more new devices bought just knowing that they'll be as supported as the one we had before03:55

Andy80and... don't forget that N900 still has to get PR 1.2 upgrade...03:55
jacquesdupontdif they see you're fooling them by trying to tell them to already change of device, either they'll change of trademark either they'll continue on yours if they don't have the choice but will be waiting impatiently the time they'll change and say bye bye03:56
jacquesdupontdlike i'm sure a lot of apple owners wants to see even better compagnies and are ready to change directly but for now they are feeling they don't have choices03:57

ali1234lucent: moblin uses rpm, meego will use rpm11:10
dazoRST38h:  that was not what I said .... I said that the innovation happens in Fedora, and is then moved over to RHEL11:10

timeless_mbpactually there's something better in the wiki about it11:13

* timeless_mbp grumbles11:15
* timeless_mbp kicks meego search11:15
dazoRST38h:  I'm sorry you've had such bad experiences ... I mostly find RHEL (and even CentOS) a lot more stable .... but Fedora is a more fast moving target, where things might not always work as well ... but which RHEL version was that?  Of course, nobody is perfect and errors can happen ... but with RHEL you should have possibility for good support and get it resolved reasonably quickly11:15

AstralStormthese have hardcoded package deps afaicr11:51
AstralStormwrt versions11:51
*** FunkyPenguin has quit IRC11:53
timeless_mbpleinir: why?11:53
timeless_mbpAstralStorm: you prefer non reproducible builds?11:53
timeless_mbpmaemo has that11:53
timeless_mbpthey're awesome11:53
timeless_mbpnever the same binary twice11:53
AstralStorm?11:54
openstandardsAstralStorm, as long as a utopia is created.... i couldn't care less about the chosen package management11:54
timeless_mbpa binary built from .deb doesn't specify which versions of dependencies it used11:54
AstralStormI mean you can't upgrade any single package11:54
timeless_mbpwhich means if you try to rebuild a .deb11:54
timeless_mbpyou are unlikely to get the same result11:54
AstralStormso?11:54
leinirtimeless_mbp: so i can put the logo on a document i am creating, which relates to MeeGo as a development platform :)11:54
AstralStormas long as it works, it's fine11:54
timeless_mbpleinir: you could steal the logo from meego.com11:55
timeless_mbpbe[a]ware that the terms and conditions for using the logo are probably not well defined or friendly :)11:55
* timeless_mbp is using it11:55
AstralStormthe whole problem is when there are deps like foo-0.1 is compatible with 0.211:55
timeless_mbpAstralStorm: hrm11:55
timeless_mbpso you prefer when nokia releases a .deb for a translation of e.g. modest11:56
AstralStormand then foo update is available and you can't use it with old bind11:56
timeless_mbpbut the deb doesn't say "btw, i will crash your older modest binary"11:56
AstralStormnah, that's splitting11:56
timeless_mbpok, the 20 other .deb's nokia produced for 1.2 which do this?11:56
ali1234the real problem is when some rpm has a dependency on foo-0.1-patchedbysomedude-sourcenotavailable11:56
AstralStormit should have a >=0.666 dep11:56
timeless_mbpis this bundling?11:56
leinirtimeless_mbp: that would work, except that somebody decided it would be a great idea to not use an image tag for it :P11:56
AstralStormali1234, :)11:56
timeless_mbpleinir: tools>page info11:56
ali1234also, the problems with maemo and debs were caused by nokia not doing it right11:57
jaemali1234, I've seen some scarier-looking version suffixes11:57
timeless_mbpali1234: well11:57
timeless_mbpthere's no way to do the rebuild bit 'right'11:57
jaemalthough some weren't actually as scary as they sounded11:57
timeless_mbp.deb binaries *never* encode enough information11:57
timeless_mbpthe l10n stuff is because nokia doesn't have a proper l10n policy11:57
timeless_mbplet alone proper deb versioning rules11:57
jaemali1234, some of Kubuntu's Qt packages were something like "4.5.3really4.5.2blahblahblah" or some such at one point11:57
timeless_mbpjaem: ubuntu had that too11:58
timeless_mbpthose were awesome11:58
JaffaFWIW, today's MWKN is a "MeeGo special" - http://www.mwkn.net/11:58
timeless_mbp(not for Qt, for something else)11:58
AstralStormtimeless_mbp, why do you need binary rebuild reproducibility?11:58
jaemtimeless_mbp, :) I did see one in the Ubuntu repos that was about twice as long as that11:58
AstralStormif you need a rebuild, you likely don't want to reproduce anyway11:58
jaemand made me raise an eyebrow11:58
AstralStormbecause something is broken11:58
timeless_mbpAstralStorm: well, to get binary symbols for instance11:58

timeless_mbpin which case testing is problematic12:59

thiagoto bootstrap a toolchain, you first build gcc and binutils, then libc, then gcc again13:27

timeless_mbpthiago: i use vbox instead :)13:29
* timeless_mbp avoids sbox13:30
thiagoI prefer a regular cross-compilation13:31
ali1234thing is, i don't actually need to recompile gcc13:32
ali1234because it can already produce vanilla i386 bins if i ask it to13:32
ali1234i am not using a different arch13:32
ali1234i might need to recompile the support libraries13:32
ali1234but isn't that what i am doing?13:33
ali1234eg if i take the gcc rpm i just compiled and tell mock to use it for the chroot...13:33
timeless_mbpthe thing is you aren't using the other rpm's you've built13:33
timeless_mbpat least, you said you weren't13:33
ali1234or rather, the gcc and glibc i just compiled, then use that to rebuild gcc13:33

ali1234from there, build everything in dep order13:34
ali1234why isn't there a tool to do this for me?13:34
StskeepsOBS?13:37
Stskeeps:P13:37
timeless_mbpheh13:37
timeless_mbpi think obs is really the answer13:38
ali1234how would obs help me?13:38
Stskeepsyou would be able to bootstrap your own gcc version at first, then ask OBS to build all your packages against that13:38
ali1234"To make real use of your server, you need base distros to build against."13:40
Stskeepssimilar way they bootstrap MeeGo for ARM13:40
Stskeepsright, and that'd be the original meego13:40
Stskeepsthen you make a project that builds against meego, drop in your own gcc13:40
Stskeepswhen that is built, drop in all your packages13:41
Stskeepsthe result is then same project build against your gcc13:41
ali1234and it builds in dependency order?13:41

Votanmh, gonna give it a shot as the hdd is wiped now anyways17:42
megabastgood luck Votan17:43
jeremiahIf you want to test an image you can try using Moblin 2.1 http://moblin.org/downloads17:43
jeremiahI don't know how much MeeGo is in there, but there should be some.17:43
Votanjeremiah i've been using moblin for months now. Problem is I dunno how easy u can upgrad moblin 2.1 to MeeGo 1.0 once an official img is available17:44
jeremiahVotan: I suspect the upgrade path from Moblin -> MeeGo won't be too painful17:44
Votanand as Samsung kindly killed my HDD upon repairing my netbook, I figured why not start with some early MeeGo build instead of the old moblin 2.1 img17:44

lcukmplayer19:29
lcukmp3 codecs etc19:29
VLJmplayer is not legal in germany I think19:29
VLJmp3 encoding is protected by patents19:30

lcukso will meego have problems building a complete stack using the obs servers19:30
lcukis what i am wondering19:30
lbtnot at all19:30
lbtit won't use the Novell service19:30
lbtso will be free to decide policy19:31
lbtand I think Intel can handle hosting mplayer :)19:31
lcukthat makes sense now19:31
VLJmp3 is not the only available audio format out there anyway...19:31
lcukVLJ, was just an example19:31
lcukfrom what i understand theres a whole swath of open source stuff that cannot be built in obs19:32
VLJyou can convert all your media files to free ones19:32
lcukVLJ, you can, but how do you tell someone who has bought 3000 tracks from amazon that work everywhere else they cannot use them here19:33
lcukerrr there19:33

lcukali1234, yes, but it wont be in meego if the build doesnt have the restriction19:36

*** timeless_mbp has quit IRC19:51

ali1234lbt: i do not understand why i need one19:52
ali1234lbt: i do not want to compile any project which exists on a opensuse server19:52
lbtBecause we're using the novell service at the moment19:52
lbtwhen you use another OBS, you'lll need a login for that19:53
ali1234lbt: so the osc / build tools cannot in fact be used without a remote server?19:53
*** fiferboy has joined #meego19:53
lbtif you want to support anonymous usage then work with us on the OBS and help design a solution19:53
lbtali1234: they need to work with an OBS at setup time19:53
lbtjust like you can't use apt-get without a remote http server19:54
ali1234i can use it with my local http server...19:54
VLJlbt > the moblin image from obs will erase all the disk ?19:54
lbtyou can setup a local OBS19:54
lbtI have one here19:54
ali1234in fact i can use it with the local apt-cache19:54

tripzeromutrax, yes, meego is really the new name21:08
tripzero;)21:08
mutraxhehehe.. naah , probeabely heared it a few times... but will the N900 be still worth buying, meego upgradable?21:09
tripzerodang, i was going to answer that one too21:09
mutraxbtw.. meego is pretty cool for a name.. good thing intel & nokia partnering up instead of compeeting...21:09
tripzeromutrax, no official word, however, there will likely be a community port if not21:09

ali1234unless you want to gamble on meego getting ported to the N900, which there is currently no definitive answer on21:15
t-tanali1234: Nokia didn't screw the debs, but their contents21:16
ali1234they also screwed the versions and the depends21:16
mutraxnaah.. not that big of a spender on cell phones to be buiny 2 600€ phones in one year... I just need *nix phone that can load openvpn, surf a bit and do some ssh'in.. the rest will be just for fun (Moehahaha)21:17
RST38hMaybe Stskeeps can try porting MeeGo to N900 ;)21:17
t-tanali1234: the used outdated version. rpm/deb is not relevant. the dependencies and the package policies are21:17
RST38hAlthough, based on my experience it may be problematic21:17
ali1234t-tan: agreed. using deb or rpm is meaningless if you don't use them properly21:17
t-tanthe question is not whether Nokia will port MeeGo but whether they will port or open the proprietary drivers21:18
mutraxdescent package manager are the only thing that make *nix devices/system idiot proof and for the masses21:18

Stskeepsright, so your goal is to have, basically, maemo5 on top of debian, right?21:55
Stskeepsand use some closed packages to fill the void, to have a proper OS21:55
thiago_homethe eMMC size cannot be changed21:55
t-tancorrect. so that I can continue using all functions + get Easy Debian integrated.21:56
Stskeepsyou mean NAND21:56
ali1234it can however be mounted in a different place21:56
t-tanneither can be changed :)21:56
*** zaizafoon has quit IRC21:56
thiago_homeali1234: where else other than / would you want it?21:56

ali1234thiago_home: eMMC on /? that's exactly what i *would* have done :)21:56
Stskeepssay unionfs/aufs\ and i'll have to beat you with a stick21:56
Stskeepsanyway, t-tan, let's take this in #mer since it's closer to mer^2, not meego21:57
t-tanI'm using symlinks to NAND for now. (ch)root is on eMMC21:57
*** meeeeeego has joined #meego21:57
t-tanStskeeps: ok, maybe lets schedule a meeting together with other people involved21:58
thiago_homet-tan: so the fast memory is not the boot device?21:58
t-tanthiago: there are two options: eMMC is boot or chroot very early to eMMC21:59
t-tandon't know whether the latter is feasible21:59
Stskeepst-tan: but if your goal is to put maemo5 stack on top of debian5, then you want mer^2 which has that as goal. it is closer in terms of init scripts, bootup sequence, to fremantle than to debian.21:59
t-tanearly = during boot21:59
Stskeepst-tan: no need to duplicate work in that regard21:59
ali1234the fremantle initscripts are pretty lame22:00
t-tanStskeeps: I know that there is large overlap interests and we are still in planning phase22:00
ali1234one missing file = endless reboot22:00
Stskeepsbut then it's no longer 'debian mobile' and it's centered around a certain type of devices22:00
ali1234and all services are started by X22:00
t-tanwe definitely don't want to reinvent the wheel - that's why want to use as much Debian as possible22:01
Stskeepscos it will be lightyears before you replace all items of maemo522:01
Stskeepswith open parts22:01
thiago_homet-tan: I see. Boot to NAND, then chroot to a special dir that has the rest of the system, with /bin, /lib, /sbin, /etc, etc. bind-mounted?22:01
javispedroI'm pretty sure you can live with the rootfs not being in NAND, if that's your primary motivation.22:01
t-tanthiago_home: exactly. ideally dual boot so that you can always fall-back to Maemo522:02
Stskeepst-tan: but anyway, mer^2 works on x86 too. so it should work on n900 too.22:02
javispedroThe speed hit shouldn't be that much noticeable if you either disable swap or move it somewhere else.22:02
thiago_homet-tan: most applications live in /usr, so you'd want the most often-used apps to be in the faster memory.22:02
Stskeepst-tan: please keep in mind it is a lot of effort for no visible user effect :P22:02
t-tanStskeeps: yes, for now its N900 specific but the N900 changes should be kept separate22:02
Stskeepst-tan: of course, they'd have to be for x86, n8x0 too22:02
Stskeeps:P22:02
*** milliams has quit IRC22:03
t-tanStskeeps: the most visible user effect is the absense of the /opt problem22:03
thiago_homehow is that a user problem?22:04
thiago_homethe user doesn't care or see /opt22:04
Stskeepst-tan: that's solvable with a maemo fix easily. look at lcuk's boottime opt22:04
ali1234unless the user wants to install something that hasn't been packaged for them22:04
Stskeepst-tan: and to add more fuel to the fire, clone to SD has been done for ages by people22:04
Stskeeps:P22:04
javispedroali1234: which is something he shouldn't be doing in the first place.22:05
ali1234i think the biggest win would be switching to a sane init that supports console fallback and proper services22:05
ali1234ability to install a toolchain on the device is just extra payoff22:05
t-tanall those solutions can be reused. we don't need to reinvent. that's why I hope it's no too much effort22:06
Stskeepst-tan: anyway, i'm doing mer^2 for three reasons, n8x0 backport, fremantle afterlife on n900 and harmattan on n900 if it turns out nokia isn't bringing it back. that's visible user effect.22:06
t-tanjavispedro: all Debian packages are not packaged for the user22:06
Stskeepsit's a foundation to do easy backports22:06
t-tanStskeeps: and I fully support that22:07
javispedrot-tan: most debian etch packages are packaged actually.22:07
Stskeepsif anyone wants to apply tricks on top of that, be my guest22:07
t-tanjavispedro: rebuild, but send through QA?22:07
*** tilppis has joined #meego22:08
javispedrot-tan: but optified22:08
Stskeepst-tan: but anyway, i'm just saying it's stupid to run two seperate projects :)22:08
t-tananother advantage is that I could install test selective modifications to core firmware packages (e.g ke-recv) without breaking the device22:08
javispedroThere's no chance we can apply the currently required testing by the Maemo QA on each and every Debian package.22:09
t-tanmy goal is to install the original Debian packages22:09
javispedrowhich are not Maemo' QA'd either.22:09
