14:45.53freemangordonkerio: hi
14:46.02keriosup
14:46.48freemangordonoil prices?
14:49.57kerioooh, neat
14:50.02kerioanyway, moar thumb plskthx
14:53.01freemangordonwill try to put some more packages in the repo soon
14:53.11kerioyay
14:53.14keriopulse/tracker?
14:53.18keriothat would be cool
14:53.52freemangordonwithout -mp thing initially, I wan't them tested by a couple of brave souls/guinea pigs before doing -mp thingie
14:53.55keriofreemangordon: what's your opinion of sqlite3 from marmistrz?
14:54.07freemangordonkerio: do I have one?
14:54.12freemangordon(opinion)
14:54.28kerioi mean, it's something that's not in cssu
14:54.38keriowould you consider compiling it?
14:54.43kerioand shipping it, i s'pose
14:54.55freemangordonkerio: I already ansered that quiestio
14:54.59freemangordon*answered
14:55.09kerio...although technically for "system" packages it's not the same thing, you can put it on the repo without adding it to the metapackage
14:55.40freemangordonwon't put newer sqlite 3 until it is not in 'main' CSSU
14:55.49kerioshame
14:55.52kerio:c
14:56.00freemangordonwhy?
14:56.17freemangordonyou have some problems with stock sqlite3 version?
14:56.27kerioi'm using the more recent one, and it feels a bit faster
14:56.30keriotracker uses sqlite
14:56.39freemangordongcc 4.6.2?
14:56.45freemangordonor 4.6.1?
14:57.00keriofreemangordon: how do i check?
14:57.05freemangordonNFC
14:57.43freemangordonbut IIRC marmistrz's has compiled it with gcc4.6.x
14:58.02keriohm
14:58.06keriothen it's ok, i suppose
14:58.27freemangordonkerio: BTW - "3.6.14-1maemo4+0m5+0cssu0+thumb0"
14:58.35freemangordonthis is in -thumb
14:58.48freemangordoncan you check your?
14:58.53freemangordon*yours
14:59.58keriowhich package?
15:00.07keriosqlite3, libsqlite3-0?
15:00.22freemangordonboth
15:00.37keriooh, the version is the same
15:00.43kerio3.7.7-2+maemo2+0m6maemo0
15:00.49kerioi wonder if the thumb version would be faster
15:00.54freemangordonshould be
15:01.27freemangordondifference between 47-linaro and 4.6-upstream for arm is noticeable
15:01.57keriohm
15:02.21freemangordonok, going to thumb-compile pulseaudio
15:12.47*** join/#maemo-ssu arcean (~Arcean@aacv120.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl)
15:25.19DocScrutinizer05thumb-compile pulseaudio | tee -a /etc/bullshit >/dev/null
15:25.38DocScrutinizer05or terse:
15:25.42DocScrutinizer05~nuke PA
15:25.42infobotACTION prepares 100 missle silos, and targets them at PA ... B☢☢M!
15:25.56keriooh, i thought you were going to say thumb-compile pulseaudio >> /etc/bullshit
15:26.53DocScrutinizer05alas we're obviously stuck to that poettering PA BS, since it's way too entangled with whole maemo system
15:27.27DocScrutinizer05so getting it thombified could only improve shit
15:27.52keriowhat's the alternative?
15:27.54kerioalsa+dmix?
15:27.56freemangordonexactly, we'll have better PA shit :D
15:28.03DocScrutinizer05yeah
15:28.09DocScrutinizer05better shit >> shit
15:28.25DocScrutinizer05no sarcasm, modulo at PA in general
15:28.57DocScrutinizer05kerio: see last post, 3 lines up: there's no alternative
15:29.22keriono, i meant when hypothetically redesigning everything
15:29.53DocScrutinizer05there'd be the alternative of pure ALSA with a few small extensions I designed, if we'd stop a new OS out of the ground
15:29.58DocScrutinizer05stomp*
15:31.08keriowell, let's do that
15:31.11kerio>:D
15:31.16DocScrutinizer05and it would work way more seamlessly with any generic ALSA audio enabled app, without special freakin tweaks to deal with shite like alsaped etc
15:32.30DocScrutinizer05all it needs is a .alsarc device definition for each app using audio, to define an ALSA device exclusively for that app
15:33.05DocScrutinizer05so the whole friggin properties like audio policies etc would get defined implicitly by the device definition
15:33.16keriohm, is that efficient enough?
15:33.21DocScrutinizer05each app had their own volume control
15:33.31DocScrutinizer05o.O
15:33.35DocScrutinizer05efficient?
15:33.38DocScrutinizer05in which way?
15:33.51DocScrutinizer05is PA efficient??
15:33.57kerioa new ALSA device for each program
15:34.14DocScrutinizer05errr
15:34.56keriounless i misunderstood
15:35.11DocScrutinizer05you're aware what's a virtual ALSA device? it's nothing more than just a definition of the stack of lib plugins and their paramenters to use by the particular app, executed in app
15:35.15DocScrutinizer05's addr space
15:36.09DocScrutinizer05it's absolutely no difference whether every app is using "ALSA:default" or each app has their own "ALSA:myaudiodev-$appname"
15:36.46keriook, so it's efficient
15:36.47keriocool
15:36.49DocScrutinizer05performance-wise
15:41.53DocScrutinizer05you might want to check out http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/twinklephone/message/1731 and http://people.openmoko.org/joerg/ALSA/ACI/
15:42.14DocScrutinizer05particularly POC in http://people.openmoko.org/joerg/ALSA/ACI/acihooklib/
15:42.22DocScrutinizer05which I invented
15:43.08DocScrutinizer05it's a friggin useful ALSA plugin to basically execute arbitrary commands whenever an arbitrary app opens (or closes) the dedicated ALSA device
15:43.26jon_yspeaking of VOIP, has anybody tried to pipe it trough the voice modem? :)
15:43.57jon_yusing my voice modem as a pots modem :)
15:44.01DocScrutinizer05you could switch on your home stereo PA when sip-phone ringer opens riger device, so you hear phone ringing even while you're in the garden
15:44.30DocScrutinizer05of course you also can setup arbitrary mixer setup to accomodate the "policies" of ringer or whatever the device
15:44.35kerio"I HAVE THE SOFTWARE 21.2011.38.1 ON MY N900.when i install from CSSU the software open a window of Xterm and he do the operation . after that he said me that is an error i don't remember where and he talk me to press a key to get out . ok after that i install the update . after that the orientation LANDSCAPE - Horizondat - vertical doesnt work . same thing in the applications ... i dont know what to do. i will REINSTALL ALL THE MAEMO and i will not in
15:44.35keriostall ever CSSU .i cant take a software if is not working.better get him out.thanks"
15:44.39keriowhat the fuck
15:45.19keriothis shit right here is the reason i don't follow TMO too closely

16:29.14freemangordonkerio: PA is in thumb repo, upgrade if you dare :P
16:29.44freemangordon160k more free in rootfs
16:31.21ShadowJKfreemangordon; been doing anything more on ramzswap?
16:31.50freemangordonI suspended for a while, until it is clear if it makes sense to continue
16:32.12keriofreemangordon: do i dare? D:
16:32.32keriomeh, i'm taking a full backup first
16:32.57freemangordonhmm, telefony still works
16:33.03freemangordon*telephony
16:33.20freemangordonaudio playback too, so it should be ok
16:33.39kerioit's just a recompile, isn't it
16:34.02ShadowJKfreemangordon; well, would be interesting to see how much of swapin comes from the compressed part with your current version
16:36.17freemangordonkerio: yes
16:36.30freemangordonplus luf's patches for BT
16:37.00freemangordonShadowJK: yeah, I was thinking to remove compression.
16:37.14freemangordonthat way we'll have flash-optimized swap
16:37.33keriofreemangordon: a cheap compression is probably better anyway
16:37.41keriounless the NAND is *really* fast
16:37.59freemangordonbut want first to issue a new update in -thumb as it passed a month or so since the last one
16:38.11freemangordonkerio: no, it is not
16:38.28Palikerio, I'm here
16:38.33freemangordonn900 has not enough RAM for that to be effective
16:38.38keriofreemangordon: :(
16:38.39Palikerio, what did you asked yesterday?
16:45.19keriofreemangordon: should i reboot?
16:45.33keriomeh, i'll reboot
16:45.49freemangordonkerio: yes
16:46.09freemangordonkerio: make sure you've upgraded 7 packages
16:46.45kerioi just did apt-get upgrade bro
16:46.50kerio:P
16:51.48keriofreemangordon: works
16:58.30DocScrutinizer05Pali: you asked me to let luf and freemangordon know sth. Now you can do that your own
16:58.42freemangordonkerio: yeah. lets see how will that affect battery life
16:59.03PaliDocScrutinizer05, luf already received messages :-)
16:59.38DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: i'd be most interested in CPU hogging of PA before and after thombification
17:00.03DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: battery life is a secondary function of that
17:00.28freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: :nod:
17:00.50freemangordonthough aiui the one that uses CPU is in the closed part
17:01.04keriofreemangordon: when on speaker, though
17:01.42DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: yeah, prolly XPROT
17:02.11keriocan't we get some good speakers to install?
17:02.14freemangordonkerio: ?
17:02.20DocScrutinizer05though, iirc PA mixing is a hogging greedy bastard as well
17:02.35DocScrutinizer05kerio: hardly
17:02.48kerioat least speakers that won't break if you look at them wrong
17:02.52freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: any idea how to measure that?
17:03.05DocScrutinizer05nifty
17:03.22DocScrutinizer05kerio: speakers are fine for their size and compartment
17:03.58kerioDocScrutinizer05: they break!
17:04.15DocScrutinizer05the problem is missing low-cut filter in whole audio chain, and speakers of that size generally can't deal with frequencies below ~150Hz
17:04.47DocScrutinizer05that's basically what XPROT is suspected to accomplish: cut out low frequencies
17:04.55DocScrutinizer05it's basically a hw bug
17:05.06kerioyeah, let's get some new hw without that bug then :)
17:05.19DocScrutinizer05the 180° opposite of what we had on FreeRunner ;-P
17:06.03DocScrutinizer05there we had a lowcut in hw that didn't allow freq < ~1kHz on headset :-o
17:06.11freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: we can lock the frequency to lets say 250 and check PA CPU usage
17:06.33freemangordonplaying one and the same song
17:06.39DocScrutinizer05sure
17:06.40freemangordonan both devices
17:06.42freemangordon*on
17:06.48freemangordoni'll do the test tomorrow
17:06.55DocScrutinizer05cool :-)
17:07.08kerio"we're gonna play to one song, and one song only"
17:08.00Skrybtw what resampler PA is using in fremantle?
17:08.51DocScrutinizer05hm?
17:09.47DocScrutinizer05isn't the resampler aka rate-conversion an immanent part of PA as well as ALSA?
17:12.35DocScrutinizer05anyway PA 'mixer' been notorious to do "(0 + 0) / 2" 44k/s even for streams that been already closed or at least inactive. That's been a logical consequence of PA's broken-by-design async concept for plugins
17:13.54SkryPA uses speex or ffmpeg (and perhaps something else) for conversion, speex can be a real cpu hog depending of the settings/method
17:14.06ShadowJKfreemangordon; that's why I was interested in stats on reads from compressed, if a large proportion is read from compressed cache it might be worthwhile to keep it.
