slavik1any Nokia people who can confirm what CPU the N9 will have?00:42
CosmoHillnope00:42
slavik1:(00:42
CosmoHillI'm sure they're not allowed to talk about unreleased products00:43
*** sp3000 has quit IRC00:43
*** sp3001 is now known as sp300000:43
ScottishDuckIt's apparently an A900:44
ScottishDuckI think00:44
GAN900slavik1, tons, but they're all under NDA.00:44
johnxgonna bet on a faster A800:44
GAN900slavik1, the only official information is from the Maemo Summit last year.00:44
slavik1GAN900: do you have a link to that?00:44
GAN900slavik1, which is that Harmattan will support OMAP3.00:44
slavik1harmattan?00:45
GAN900(and capacitive and WVGA00:45
GAN900Maemo 6/MeeGo-Harmattan00:45
slavik1ahh00:45
slavik1GAN900: 800x480 is wvga but not full 16:9 ... 854x480 is though, so also wondering if those 54 pixels get added :)00:46
*** Dr_Who has quit IRC00:46
GAN900slavik1, 854x480 is also WVGA00:46
slavik1yes00:46
johnxslavik1, I'd bet against it00:46
slavik1:(00:46
GAN900Me too.00:46
slavik1omap4 with 854x480 is teh win00:46
slavik1although I'll take 800x480, too00:46
GAN900But you can measure the aspect ration on the leak.00:46
slavik1but with omap4 :)00:46
GAN900But please take your findings to another channel so you don't offend the locals.00:47
*** daft has quit IRC00:47
GAN900OMAP4 wont be sampling in volume until 2011.00:47
*** ofauchon has quit IRC00:47
slavik1really?00:47
GAN900Really.00:47
slavik1wouldn't it be like a year at that point that omap4 has been out?00:47
slavik1I guess I am waiting for N10 or some such?00:48
TSCHAKeeeannounced.00:48
TSCHAKeeethe chips aren't publically available.00:48
slavik1TSCHAKeee: wouldn't announced mean: we can now build it?00:48
slavik1oh, I see00:48
*** smhar has quit IRC00:48
johnxthere's a little more lead time in the embedded chip world00:49
johnxit threw me off at first, too00:49
*** Armi^ has quit IRC00:49
*** bdale has quit IRC00:49
*** th3hate has quit IRC00:49
TSCHAKeeebelieve me, would love to get my hands on some OMAP4 dev hardware00:50
TSCHAKeeeto give my Snapdragon loving friends the finger00:50
TSCHAKeee:P00:50
slavik1TSCHAKeee: blaze is avail with omap 4430, but costs 2k00:50
TSCHAKeeethat's typical pricing for dev hardware.00:50
*** kkszysiu has joined #meego00:50
slavik1if I had the time and knowledge to write good arm apps, I'd get it00:50
slavik12k is too much for someone who won't do much :( and I don't think it has GSM antennas ... otherwise it would be my new phone ;)00:51
johnxbah. both of those can be overcome00:51
ShadowJKdoes it even have screen :)00:51
johnxknowledge: pick some up00:51
*** bdale has joined #meego00:51
johnxtime: stop sleeping00:51
TSCHAKeeethe ARM chips are getting good enough that I can finally start building my Lego home audio/video concept appliances.00:51
TSCHAKeeeerm, the OMAP stuff rather.00:52
slavik1ShadowJK: it has 2 wvga screens and hdmi out00:52
slavik1they actually showed it showing 3 diff movies on all 3 displays00:52
johnxhot sauce00:52
slavik1there's a video somewhere00:52
ShadowJKvideo is kinda annoying still, you need good contacts, or beg alot to the right people to get access to the hw video decode accels :(00:53
*** ismael has quit IRC00:53
slavik1ShadowJK: it was on the net ... from some trade show00:53
slavik1imo, nokia needs to make a phone like the droidX / evo 4g (4.3 inch screen, no keyboard) and have a case for a bluetooth keyboard like the lenovo lephone00:54
*** guardian has quit IRC00:54
johnxslavik1, I think he means access to the software needed to do the kind of hw accelerated video decoding they showed00:55
*** mardy has quit IRC00:55
TSCHAKeeeright now, the ARM world is still riddled with cores with graphics/video acceleration hardware that have drivers buried under miles of NDA.00:56
johnxTSCHAKeee, though at least it's better now than it was 5 years ago00:56
johnxthere's progress even though it's aggravatingly slow00:56
TSCHAKeeeI had to jump through a lot of hoops to get the Mali DDK so that I could get the necessary drivers to use OpenGL ES on a Telechips 8900 based design (a SmartQ V7)00:56
TSCHAKeeeyup00:56
GAN900johnx, not saying much, though.00:56
ShadowJKwhich kinda sucks if you're just this dude who wants to build lego or a home entertainment system or whatever00:57
StskeepsTSCHAKeee: managed to get a DDK? :o00:57
TSCHAKeeebut I STILL don't have access to the video coprocessor in the 890000:57
johnxGAN900, Intel wasn't friendly to open source even as recently as the mid 2000's IIRC00:57
ShadowJKnvidia on desktop is nice00:57
johnxthis stuff takes time, but I think most companies will find that they sell more hardware with openness00:58
*** mardy has joined #meego00:58
TSCHAKeeeit's wading through the legal tape00:58
GAN900Let's hope they do so sooner rather than later.00:58
TSCHAKeeenot easy00:58
ShadowJKthey have a video decode accel api that a) isn't vaporware b) isn't crippled to completely useless already at spec level c) actually works00:58
johnxShadowJK, As long as you have a recent card on an X86 machine :)00:58
ShadowJKyeah :)00:58
*** slavik1 has quit IRC00:59
johnxI remember someone convincing me to get a Radeon at some point, because they'd have "finished open source drivers any day now"00:59
* TSCHAKeee chuckles01:00
johnxThat was an *original* Radeon01:00
johnxie, no number after it01:00
TSCHAKeeeheheh01:01
*** glunardi has joined #meego01:01
TSCHAKeeeit really is a mess01:01
*** Saviq_afk is now known as Saviq01:01
johnxI think it's the same problem as trying to port Linux to some embedded hardware *after* the hardware is released01:01
TSCHAKeeeand let's not even mention the Atom Z series, with US15 chipset, and the GMA500 core :P01:01
TSCHAKeeegpu rather01:01
johnxwhich is hilarious, because the SGX in the OMAP3 works *awesomely* on the N90001:02
TSCHAKeeego directly to EMGD, do not pass GO :P01:02
johnx(really fun to still see PowerVR tech in use, though)01:02
*** slavik1 has joined #meego01:02
johnxI was sure that tech was a dead end around 2000 or so01:03
TSCHAKeeewe really don't have access to that either, outside the closed nokia bins01:03
johnxsame situation as nVidia on the desktop *shrugs*01:03
TSCHAKeeeyeah01:03
ShadowJKthough atleast you can actually download nvidia drivers01:04
johnxI mean, I want to channel money to companies that really *get* open source, but I also need to *use* my stuff01:04
johnxShadowJK, I think some people are working on that :>01:04
ShadowJKyou don't need to register user/pass, email right people to beg for access to get driver..01:04
TSCHAKeeewhen I saw the headline "Mali 200 open source code released!"01:04
TSCHAKeeeI was like, "YAY!!!"01:04
TSCHAKeeethen i go grab it and find out it's basically a zero copy routine01:04
TSCHAKeee*FACEPALM*01:05
TSCHAKeeethanks guys, really01:05
TSCHAKeee:P01:05
slavik1btw, meego on arm ... is there anything special when coding for that?01:05
*** CoderForLife has joined #meego01:06
TSCHAKeeeyes. Don't cross the streams.01:06
TSCHAKeeeseriously though, that's rather ambiguous. ;)01:06
johnxslavik1, be careful of memory alignment, don't wake up the CPU when idle, and don't leak memory01:07
TSCHAKeeethose are all good things on any CPU.. but memory alignment even moreso on ARM01:07
TSCHAKeeethat one will slow stuff down like crazy01:07
*** dani_l has quit IRC01:08
johnxand sometimes you'll get away with it on a more recent ARM but make people insane on older ARMs01:08
TSCHAKeeeas the CPU tries to compensate for it.. (early ARM CPUs will just refuse to deal with unaligned memory accesses)01:08
johnx(eg, sapwood)01:08
johnxheh, I can see we've run into something similar :)01:09
TSCHAKeeeyeah, i've had that problem as recent as with an S3C2440 trying to port Orbiter to it.01:10
*** panaggio has quit IRC01:10
TSCHAKeeethankfully we were able to make it work with changes to our serialize clas01:10
TSCHAKeees01:10
ShadowJKI actually thought kernel was catching the exception and emulating instruction that makes unaligned memory access01:11
johnxa year or so ago, I was trying to get sapwood running on Zaurus (ARMv5te), and it was driving me totally insane. Turns out the ARMv6 and ARMv5te have different memory alignment requirements01:12
TSCHAKeeeShadowJK: depends on the arch/cpu01:12
slavik1johnx: so, don't be a sucky developer. :P01:12
johnxslavik1, yeah, pretty much01:13
TSCHAKeeeand outside of linux, you don't have that option.. the early Acorn Archimedes crashed rather spectacularly with incorrect memory accesses.01:13
ShadowJKheh, I bet echo 0 >/proc/cpu/alignment would quickly reveal broken apps :)01:14

CosmoHillFirefox is using between 30% and 80% processor load02:16
CosmoHillwhich is impressive concidering I have no windows open02:16
FatalSaintIt just wants to be sure it's ready for you when you browse the interwebz! ;)02:16
CosmoHillfirefox: I'M READY WHENEVER YOU ARE!!!02:17
CosmoHillme: Holy crap you've set the desk on fire!02:17
FatalSaintlol02:17
CosmoHillThe powerPC G5 was never a fire hazard02:17

GeneralAntillesCosmoHill, 2005.02:31
GeneralAntillesThe G5 may not have been a fire hazard, but it certainly was an electrocution hazard. :P02:32
CosmoHilljust thinking about when Apple moved to Intel, and MS used the PowerPC (360) processor02:32
GeneralAntillesMicrosoft used G5s for development work.02:32
CosmoHillmy friend's G5 was a water hazzard as the cooler leaked02:32
GeneralAntillesMine, too.02:32
CosmoHillyou got a mac pro from them right?02:32
GeneralAntillesBut Apple replaced mine with a 2x2.26.02:32
CosmoHillI think I'm getting a new G4 soon02:33
GeneralAntilles"new"02:33
CosmoHillnew to me anyway02:33
CosmoHillif it's over 1Ghz I'll be pleased :)02:36
ScottishDuckI always figure that people who got the G5 macs must have been pretty mad02:38
ScottishDuckwhen Apple switched to intel02:38
CosmoHillI found out recently that the kernels where 32bit by default02:39
ScottishDuckwhat kernels02:39
thiago_homewhy? because there was better hardware the next day?02:39
thiago_homedoesn't that happen to _everyone_ ?02:39
CosmoHillScottishDuck: the darwin kernel02:39
ScottishDuckOh yeah02:39
ScottishDuckI use the 64-bit kernel though02:40
CosmoHillto me it's like buying a super charged car only to find they've removed the super charger belt02:40
thiago_homeback in those days, apple used to say that you didn't need 64-bit02:41
thiago_homethe userspace was 32-bit02:41
*** FatalSaint has quit IRC02:42
ScottishDuckApple say everything sucks02:42
thiago_homethere was no advantage in using 64-bit, unless you had huge amounts of data to process02:42
ScottishDuckuntil it's their next great innovation02:42
thiago_homeand they were mostly right on the PowerPC02:42
thiago_homeon x86, without 64-bit, you only have half the registers02:42
CosmoHillI read that the 32bit PowerPC G5 was based on a POWER4 processor with 32bit support added to it02:43
ScottishDucklol02:43
CosmoHillsince I got my mac, apple have shifted from building computers to making shiny things for right handed people02:44
thiago_homeI don't know what 32-bit PowerPC looks like02:45
CosmoHilllooks like?02:45
thiago_homeassembly & ABI02:45
ScottishDuckApple went from making an advert about computing being the platform for big brother, to becoming the big brother in computing02:46
thiago_homeactually, now I remember something02:46
ScottishDuckthe irony always astounds me02:46
thiago_homemy AIX is running on a POWER6 and it does have 32-bit mode02:46
thiago_homeI need to check when the machine is back up02:46

thiago_homeNokia does02:49
thiago_homeI just have access to it02:49
CosmoHillah okay02:50
CosmoHillnow I'm not so envious02:50
thiago_homeI'd never buy one of those for me02:51
thiago_homeentry-level is $12k02:51
thiago_homePOWER6 1GB of RAM with AIX 5.302:51
CosmoHillthere is a reason I don't own any new computers02:51

If you go here: http://wiki.meego.com/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Linux there are 2 images.. one for netbooks and one for handset devices. There is no SDK image for IVI systems. So basically I think i will install qt4 directly on the ivi liv17:30

thiago_homethey want Atom to sell more, competing with ARM17:58
th0br0yeah i know th17:58
th0br0*that17:58
th0br0but in how far are they different (atom and non-atom)17:58
thiago_homeon one hand, they accept helping ARM a bit (with MeeGo)17:58
thiago_homebut the whole point of AppUp is to deliver Atom-optimised applications17:59
thiago_homewill they run on non-Atom? Sure. But they're optimised for Atom.17:59

ali1234test that the apps only run on atom18:02

ShapeshifterBtw, I read a lot about android devs complaining about fragmentation of versions and apis and quirks added by manufacturers that make developing for android a bit of a pain apparently. Does meego have some strict guidelines and plans in place to prevent a similar thing from happening to the platform once it's out?18:32
*** lcuk has quit IRC18:32
slonopotamusi doubt18:32
CosmoHillwasn't there something about compliance in last week's meeting?18:33
slonopotamusShapeshifter, from what i see on irc, meego devs very easily patch stuff18:33
*** manju has joined #meego18:33
Shapeshifterso it's probably going to be a mess? then again, thinking how meego will probably be a bit more linuxy, you could simply require the versions you need of a lib (except qt stuff) and be okay. At least developing for linux, I rarely have too many problems.18:34
thiago_homewe're very much struggling to solve that problem in our side18:35
thiago_homewe can't beat the competition if we aren't better than they are18:36
thiago_homeQt's API is one and only18:36
thiago_homeyou can't change it18:36
Shapeshifterthat is good18:37
thiago_homethe one thing I'm afraid of is differences in backend implementations18:37
thiago_homesome features are present, some work differently, etc.18:37
Shapeshifterthiago_home: you mean like for example how access to a camera would be presented by "the backend"? what backend exactly?18:38
thiago_homefortunately, inside MeeGo, the backends would be the same18:38
thiago_homethe difference would be between MeeGo and, say, Symbian18:38
Shapeshifterah.18:39
kraiskilNo camera API in Qt?18:39
thiago_homeyes, in QtMultimedia, coming in Mobility 1.118:39
kraiskiloh. cool :)18:40
Shapeshifterso for example, any manufacturer who wants to run meego will need to write the interfacing components to the hardware so that the mobility api will work with the hardware?18:40
th0br0no18:40
th0br0to interface with qt18:41
th0br0;)18:41
thiago_homeactually, not so much18:42
thiago_homemost of the interfaces are done already at the kernel level18:42
thiago_homeso they need to write kernel drivers18:42
CosmoHillthat reminds me, I need to install Qt again18:42

ali1234Stskeeps: did anyone ever try to boot N900 with x-loader and u-boot on SD card?21:46
Stskeepsali1234: no, but nolo can load u-boot it seems like21:47
Stskeepsat least qemu-n900 does that21:47
Stskeeps(from NAND)21:47
ali1234according to my research the n900 SYS_BOOT is wired such that it checks SD card before OneNAND21:47
ali1234all you need to do is put MLO and u-boot.bin on a fat formatted SD card21:47
ali1234i'm trying it right now in fact21:48
Stskeepsexcept the signed x-loader it's looking for would be nolo, wouldn't it?21:48
ali1234i don't know21:48
Stskeepskeep in mind there's OMAP HS21:48
ali1234as i understand it x-loader happens before any of that stuff21:49
Stskeepsi think it's more worthwhile to try and see what you can do with the fact NOLO can load u-boot from nand21:50
Stskeepscan be checked with the qemu n90021:50
ali1234the qemu n900 doesn't even have an x-loader...21:50
ali1234i looked inside the image, it goes directly to NOLO21:51
Stskeepsyes, my point21:51
Stskeepsnolo -> uboot as zimage21:51
Stskeepsthat's possible, it seems like21:51
Stskeepssec21:51
ali1234well it won't take me long to try from SD card21:52
Stskeepswell, give it a shot21:52
ali1234and it's less likely to destroy the whole device21:52
Stskeepshow will you know it works? :P21:52
ali1234if it doesn't boot up to maemo, it worked :)21:52
Stskeepspoint21:52
Stskeepshttp://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?p=5934&postcount=2 <- what i'm hinting at21:52
Stskeepsthe .bin in use is a u-boot.bin21:52
dziqso,anybody has mc installed?21:53
*** Fernando_ has joined #meego21:53
ali1234yes, and i saw someone else booted a maemo image with qflasher, but they had to swap out the bootloaders because of security21:53
Stskeepsright21:54
ali1234so i am guessing all that nasty stuff in is NOLO, not in the OMAP chip itself21:54
Stskeepsnah21:54
Stskeepsit's in omap21:54
Stskeepsmy point being that nolo will load u-boot.bin if it's presented to it as the kernel21:54
ali1234yeah, but i think it's the nokia x-loader which checks NOLO signature21:54
Stskeepscan't recall21:55
ali1234MLO<=>x-loader, u-boot<=>NOLO21:55
Stskeepsit goes x-loader -> nolo, true21:55
ali1234http://www.omappedia.org/wiki/Bootloader_Project is what I am going to try21:55
Stskeepsif your sd card doesn't work, i wouldn't mind seeing some nolo->uboot.bin tricks21:56
Stskeepswhat i was hoping for would be a multiboot like menu21:56
Stskeepsthat loads from a mmc instead or whatever21:56
ali1234yes21:56
*** lbt has joined #meego21:57
Stskeepsthen again, straight to sd boot would be cool21:57
Stskeeps:P21:57
CosmoHilldziq: i think you might need to compile it yourself21:57
ali1234but i think it would be great if you could just put in the SD card for the OS you want to use (or none for regular maemo) - without having to flash anything21:57
Stskeepsyes, agreed21:57
CosmoHillali1234: like a computer loads a boot cd, if it's non boot it loads from hard drive?21:58
ali1234CosmoHill: yes, exactly like that21:58
ali1234it's all described on the omap34xx TRM page 3378 (N900 is 34xx right?)21:59
ali1234CosmoHill: just like a PC bios, you can configure the order that devices are checked, but unlike a PC, you do it by soldering resistors on the board22:00
ali1234well i checked the config, and it looks good to go22:00

messertingHi folks, I'm trying to port Witter to a KDE plasmoid22:45
messertinganyone knows some good docs on how to start?22:46
*** ali12341 has joined #meego22:46
messertingthough I'd try to rip out the hildon stuff, and replace it by some basic Qt stuff, right?22:46
*** ali1234 has quit IRC22:47
*** Fernando_ has quit IRC22:47
*** ali12341 is now known as ali123422:47
messertingWitter is written in python, so I guess I should replace "self.program = hildon.Program()" by something that will run in KDE422:47
messertingMay I add that I find Witter the absolutely best Twitter client available, far better than the KDE Microblogging plasmoid22:50

messertingali1234: thanks - I've made a hello world plasmoid already! :)22:54
ali1234so now you need to recode all the widgets used by witter to use Qt widgets instead22:54
thiago_homehow about 4.722:54
messertingBut when I look at the source of Witter, I see there are quite some places I need to change...22:55
ali1234yeah, probably most of the code will need rewriting22:55
thiago_homemesserting: you probably need to write everything except the twitter API22:55
messertingwell, the UI already has a Qt version22:56
messertingbut, I need to change it to be a plasmoid I guess...22:56
messertingdon't think I really have the skills, or the time to get the skills22:56
messertingMaybe I'll just donate some money to the Witter author :)22:57

*** Vanadis has quit IRC23:53
lcukcool23:53
CosmoHillI.E. the remote node PXE boots grub2 and that tells it what to chainload23:53
CosmoHillI also used it with memtest23:54
CosmoHillso in theory it could be extended / intergrated with Rocks to (re)install nodes23:54
CosmoHillI currently face two (short term) problems23:57
CosmoHillthe first is that I go back in 3 weeks and I wanna chill out23:58
CosmoHillthe second is that it needs to be moved somewhere else23:58
