16:50.11freemangordonok, systemui power key menu is in cssu-devel, feel free to test it

16:55.42freemangordonmerlin1991: we might have a problem with powerkeymenu and those users who had enabled "reboot", "xterm" and whatnot commands in powerkeymenu
16:55.55freemangordonotherwise I think the package is ready for primetime
16:56.43freemangordonmerlin1991: I don;t know how apt will handle /etc/systemui/systemui.xml

18:12.43keriomerlin1991: could you add pdiff support to your extras-devel-light repo? :3
18:14.23keriofreemangordon: apt will ask the user, HAM will probably just install the new config file
18:14.27keriofreemangordon: also yay ^_^
18:14.54freemangordonkerio: yeah, my bad, i'd rather meant HAM
18:16.48merlin1991kerio: I've looked into it, but it isn't as easy as it sounds

18:22.05freemangordonmerlin1991: BTW now we have the source code of power key menu, we can finally move "orientation lock" to where it belongs ;)
18:22.31kerio:D :D :D :D :D
18:22.41keriofreemangordon: i'm rebooting, btw
18:22.44gregoamerlin1991: re pdiffs: /usr/share/doc/reprepro/manual.html --> tiffany. works fine for me.
18:22.56kerioi really hope it's not borked, my last backup is kinda old right now
18:22.58keriolike two days old
18:23.07freemangordonneeds coffee
18:23.40merlin1991gregoa: I'm on it, relax :D
18:24.09keriogregoa: how do i "reset" my dpkg cache?
18:24.10gregoamerlin1991: I couldn't be more relaxed :)
18:24.21merlin1991why oh why is the manual in html
18:24.25gregoakerio: what does this mean?
18:24.41merlin1991or rather what's a proper commandline html viewer?
18:24.53keriogregoa: make it so apt will redownload the Packages files from the repos
18:24.54gregoalynx, links, w3m, ... $EDITOR
18:25.04keriofreemangordon: the text for buttons with graphical icons is kinda borked
18:25.10keriofreemangordon: it's... up a bit
18:25.27gregoakerio: sounds more like apt-cache than dpkg cache :)
18:25.30keriofreemangordon: still no double-tap-to-unlock? :(
18:25.33keriogregoa: ...maybe
18:25.38freemangordonkerio: what is borked?
18:25.52keriofreemangordon: the text on buttons with icons isn't centered vertically
18:25.59keriohold on, i'll post a screen
18:26.11freemangordonkerio: no need
18:26.14freemangordonI got it
18:26.29freemangordonwill fix it in an instant
18:26.40kerioi thought this was ready for primetime! you lied to me! :'(
18:26.48freemangordonhehe
18:27.04gregoakerio: but I have no good idea, short of removing stuff from /var/lib/apt/lists/ manually
18:27.49freemangordonkerio: BTW are you sure it was centered on stock?
18:27.56keriofreemangordon: pretty sure, yes
18:27.58freemangordonok
18:27.59keriodon't you remember?
18:28.02freemangordonno
18:29.50keriofreemangordon: anyway, even if it was decentered on stock, it would be a bug
18:29.51keriobecause it's ugly!
18:31.44lufmerlin1991: links ;)
18:32.16gregoakerio: commenting out the repo in sources.list / update / commenting it in again / update seems to fetch the stuff again

18:32.44merlin1991luf: where's that screenshot now ;)
18:33.29gregoamerlin1991: do you mean http://screenshots.debian.net/package/links ? :)
18:33.44merlin1991nah I mean the powerkey screenshot ;)
18:33.53keriofreemangordon: hmm, how would you implement the rotation lock in the powerkey menu?
18:34.00keriolike, would you put the status text there or not?
18:34.33gregoakerio: or maybe I'm wrong and a I got a new Packages file because there were updates in the repo I tested :/
18:35.52lufmerlin1991: what screeenshot?
18:36.15lufOh I understand. What about aalib (or how it's called).
18:36.32merlin1991<kerio> freemangordon: the text on buttons with icons isn't centered vertically
18:36.32merlin1991<kerio> hold on, i'll post a screen
18:36.43merlin1991^ That screen :D
18:36.46keriowhy did you ask luf for it?
18:37.06merlin1991because my autocomplete failed :oops:
18:37.27lufIt's ok while it's not kernel oops :D
18:37.37keriohttp://i.imgur.com/8V2Rj.png
18:38.33merlin1991ah yep, text on stock is vertically centered
18:38.42merlin1991and that indeed looks UGLY
18:38.55keriothe autorotation applet has some blue status text though
18:39.07keriothe rest of the buttons don't
18:39.26kerioin the powerkey menu
18:39.48lufkerio: what the language are you using?
18:40.16freemangordonkerio: fixed
18:40.17kerioluf: it_IT
18:42.33kerioluf: i should probably use english actually
18:42.51lufkerio: no problem. It just look very strange to me :D
18:43.16kerioit's just that the decimal and date separators you guys use are weird
18:43.56freemangordonkerio: no problem to put rotation lock in the power key menu
18:44.09merlin1991kerio: because it's you I also added bz2 to the extras devel light repo :D
18:44.43freemangordonthe ^^^ "not centered vertically" bug was exactly because the second line of text was empty :D
18:44.47keriofreemangordon: it would have to be different though, you need one button, with centered icon+vertically-centered text
18:44.55kerioto be consistent with the rest of the powerkey menu buttons
18:45.20freemangordonkerio: no, invoke power key menu while in call and you'll see
18:45.31keriodon't make me call :c
18:45.34keriowhat does it do?
18:46.17freemangordonyou'll have "secure device" button disabled, along with second lie description why it is disabled. something like "you cannot secure the device while in call"
18:46.24freemangordon*line
18:47.32kerioi see
18:47.45kerioit's still inconsistent!
18:48.16freemangordonnot to say that it could be something like 2g/3g/dual mode selection applet, i.e. a couple of buttons in a row.
18:48.24freemangordonand still be consistent
18:49.25freemangordonkerio: don;t forget tklock is updated too :P
18:50.06keriofreemangordon: i have your updated tklock
18:50.19kerioit doesn't seem different
18:50.26freemangordonthats good
18:50.36kerioi wanted portrait mode!
18:50.49freemangordonwe are missing the background for portrait mode
18:50.49kerioand pwrkey-twice-to-unlock
18:51.02freemangordonwell, first things firts
18:51.06freemangordon*first
18:51.11freemangordonread - memory leaks
18:51.47freemangordonkerio: and I won;t be the one to implement portrait mode in tklock, find some GTK guy
18:52.07freemangordonor pester merlin1991 to find one :P
18:52.12keriok
18:52.34kerioi don't really care actually
18:52.46keriodouble-click-to-unlock would be SWEET
18:53.07freemangordonkerio: we are missing the background for portrait tklock
18:53.41keriofreemangordon: the one that's already there! :D
18:53.49freemangordonwon;t work
18:53.49kerioactually no, the clock would end up on the white-ish part
18:59.01keriomerlin1991: joke's on you, i actually told apt to prefer gzip
19:00.35freemangordonmerlin1991: do you plan to update h-d in -testing any time soon?
19:03.13keriofreemangordon: it's updated in -T6
19:08.56merlin1991kerio: he's talking about the even newer h-d from arcean
19:09.03kerioi see
19:09.12keriofreemangordon: how do i reload systemui without rebooting?
19:09.58merlin1991freemangordon: I hoped I could push a tklock, alarm, powerkeymenu + h-d update
19:10.15merlin1991but since we still have leaks I guess I'll push a minimalistic h-d only update
19:10.25freemangordonmerlin1991: we have leaks?
19:10.31freemangordonwhere is that?
19:11.21freemangordonkerio: killall systemui
19:11.39keriofreemangordon: yay ^_^
19:12.09freemangordonmerlin1991: there should be no more leaks caused by systemui
19:13.03freemangordonmerlin1991: though I think it is better to push only h-d for now, I want those tested for a while
19:13.16freemangordon(those - systemui plugins)

19:14.33freemangordonmerlin1991: I am still not convinced alarmui is 100% stable and bugfree, no matter I am using the replacement for near a month
19:14.50freemangordon*nearly
19:15.52kerioto be fair i trust freemangordon more than nokia
19:16.09freemangordonthats reasonable :P
19:17.54freemangordonchem|st: whats with the new -stable?
19:37.20merlin1991freemangordon: didn't you say, that there were still leaks left in the tklock plugin?
19:37.46freemangordonmerlin1991: no, you got me wrong
19:37.57merlin1991ah okay :D
19:38.02freemangordonI said it is using too much memory for my taste :D
19:38.36merlin1991I'll push a new update with h-d and libcpaboutcssu this week then
19:38.57freemangordonmerlin1991: include powerkeymenu too
19:39.24freemangordonit is not REed, but a rewrite, so I am pretty confident it is ok
19:40.30merlin1991is the text fixed? :D
19:40.45merlin1991ah yeah there's a commit :)
19:40.55freemangordonyes. and i'll commit a minor fix in a couple of minutes
19:41.05merlin1991any numbers on memory usage?
19:41.35freemangordonlemme check
19:44.27freemangordonheap size (without alarm being active) is 1576 kb
19:44.43freemangordonwaiting for alarm to sound
19:45.19freemangordonno change
19:45.27freemangordonso, 1576 KB
19:47.29freemangordonmerlin1991: but we need someone GTK to try to reduce that. Somehow. or to RE systemui itself and make it .launch
19:48.05freemangordonBut for now I am fed ui with systemui stuff, so don;t hold your breath :
19:48.12freemangordon*up
19:48.25merlin1991hehe
19:48.50freemangordonwell, you may ask jonwil, there is x86 systemui binary
19:49.25freemangordonwhich is 26KB
19:50.00freemangordona couple of days spent on it and we'll have the sources :D
19:53.37freemangordonmerlin1991: fix https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/osso-systemui-powerkeymenu/blobs/485bd135dd7b8506c8bb73a0c3678cbf5f80910e/COPYING before pushing it in -testing
19:54.15merlin1991since when am I a lawyer? :D
19:54.56freemangordonmerlin1991: come on, please. this is GPL2
19:54.59freemangordonoops
19:55.03freemangordonLGPL
19:55.39freemangordonthough it could be GPL2 as well
19:56.45merlin1991tbh I'd prefer it when you slap the copyright on, since I didn't write the code, looks kinda odd if everything but the copyright notice comes from someone else
19:57.02freemangordonmerlin1991: ok, ok
19:57.11freemangordonI am just tired :(
19:57.28merlin1991well, go to bed, do it tomorrow :D
19:57.54freemangordonno. i'll do it now, i want to finish with that stuff
19:58.10keriofreemangordon: so not only you had some questionable ideas regarding the aesthetics of text, you also didn't fulfill the proper legal requirements!
19:58.37merlin1991kerio the troll :P
19:58.49freemangordonkerio: shut up :P
20:00.29keriofreemangordon: btw, have you tested the "lock device" part of tklock?
20:00.50freemangordonkerio: what?
20:01.35keriooh ok, it's not part of tklock, it stays below it
20:02.13freemangordonkerio: elaborate please
20:03.20keriofreemangordon: the thing that asks for the lock code to unlock
20:04.11freemangordonthis is not a part of tklock, And it is invoked via powerkeymenu. And yes, I tested it. That was the first time ever I locked my device :D:D:D
20:04.21kerioi tested it too!
20:04.21kerio:D
20:04.45freemangordongood for you. does it work?
20:06.29freemangordonmerlin1991: licensing fixed, it should be ready to go
20:06.32kerioyep
20:06.35Palifreemangordon, is there portrait mode support for tklock?
20:06.50freemangordonPali: no, we are missing proper background images
20:07.08Paliso only background image is problem?
20:07.22Paliwhy we cannot use that which is in landscape mode?
20:07.38freemangordonPali: because it is in landscape :D
20:07.55freemangordonPali: we can do some trickery ofc
20:08.16merlin1991freemangordon: no more re bits in it?
20:08.21freemangordonbut my focus was on getting it working + fixind the memory leaks
20:08.28freemangordonmerlin1991: where?
20:08.32merlin1991powerkey
20:08.48freemangordonthere is nothing REed, I wrote the code from scratch
20:08.48merlin1991because the old copying stated the "this might contain (c) nokia bits"
20:08.59freemangordonmerlin1991: I took it from tklock :D
20:09.14merlin1991ah okay .P
20:09.35freemangordonI am lazy, so I don;t create packaghing from scratch, but copy it from different packages
20:10.03merlin1991well tbh dh_make in the fremantle scracthbox suxx big time, so I can understand that :D
20:10.16freemangordonmerlin1991: though we should change the other plugins licensing to LGPL too
20:10.43freemangordonthere is not much(if any) REed code remaining
20:10.45keriofreemangordon: hypothetically, how hard would it be to load status menu plugins in the powerkey menu?

20:11.00freemangordonkerio: impossible

20:12.52merlin1991well that is silly
20:13.03merlin1991I prefer using dch -i and then adjusting the version
20:13.20freemangordonmerlin1991: well, I am not sure what time offset has vmware cliet
20:13.26freemangordon*client
20:13.43freemangordonnot to say that mc has pretty good copy/paste functionality
20:13.47merlin1991I dunno, my scratchbox is native :D
20:14.04freemangordonqtcreator too :D
20:14.28freemangordon(good copy/paste)
20:15.41merlin1991vim too ;)

20:16.57freemangordonis old, ain't :(
20:17.22merlin1991I started with gedit ;)
20:18.51freemangordonhehe. I bet you've never heard of ll3 (laplink) and stuff like hand-made R-2R DAC attached to parallel port for sound output :D
20:20.20keriofreemangordon: so? add some extra buttons
20:20.53freemangordonkerio: where?
20:21.42freemangordonkerio: what buttons? what functionality?
20:21.52kerioload them from plugins
20:22.13freemangordonkerio: it does not work that way
20:22.30keriok :(
20:22.39merlin1991freemangordon: well I've heard of them, my father kept telling his story of his first email :D
20:22.56freemangordonkerio: you need DBus service to "service" those buttons
20:23.11merlin1991my glasses just went full retard, the small screw that holds the pad in place which goes on your noes decided to unscrew itself
20:23.22freemangordonmerlin1991: yeah, toldya I am old :(:(:(
20:23.26merlin1991kinda hard to perform surgery on your glasses without glasses
20:23.49freemangordonmerlin1991: hehe. use your n900 to zoom :P
20:24.18merlin1991the n900 can't battle 5.5 Doptres ;)
20:24.25freemangordonlol
20:24.37merlin1991*Dioptres*
20:25.00keriomerlin1991: my father is at like -7 on both eyes
20:25.36merlin19915.5 is more than enough to make you blind without the glasses on :/
20:25.53freemangordonmerlin1991: but how you see what you write ?!?
20:26.05keriohe usually carries two pairs of glasses, one worn and another in his bag
20:26.08merlin1991I don't look at the keyboard ;)
20:26.09keriohe has spares *everywhere*
20:26.22freemangordonmerlin1991: aah, a real developer :P
20:26.28kerioi only have one pair that i wear, and my old ones that are in a drawer somewhere
20:26.39keriobut i'm at -1.25/-1.5, so i can get by without
20:26.50merlin1991also the glasses still sit (somehow) but it's not exactly comfortable
20:28.46freemangordonmerlin1991: are you aware what is the situation with chem|st's SB and -stable?

22:55.28DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: R/2R network on parallel port? how uninspired. I loved the 1bit DAC with like 16fold oversampling directly to the PC beeper more intriguing
22:55.55DocScrutinizer05true speech from a single TTL-level output
22:57.48freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: naah, that was too noisy, 8bit DAC was way better :)
22:57.51DocScrutinizer05nowadays those 1bit DAC are considered the most linear and accurate thing you can find in top notch CD players
22:58.01freemangordonI know
22:59.26DocScrutinizer05admittedly with 128 or 1024fold oversampling
23:01.54freemangordoniirc the problem was that 8088 was not fast enough to output enough samples per second for good sound
23:02.09freemangordonusing speaker IO prots that is
23:02.13freemangordon*port
23:03.53DocScrutinizer05yep, particularly since that port been (and still is?) hooked up via some weird console ioctrl
23:04.07DocScrutinizer05iirc
23:05.49freemangordonwell, the code was written in ASM (I am talking about DOS days), but still CPU was too slow for anything but a robotic voice
23:05.52DocScrutinizer05according to wikipedia you'd need 2^(16*2)-fold oversampling for a 16bit accuracy of a 1bit DAC
23:06.41freemangordonwhile with 8bit DAC on PP it was giving an acceptable quality
23:06.50DocScrutinizer05:nod:
23:06.57DocScrutinizer05just kidding basically
23:07.02freemangordonyeah
23:07.58DocScrutinizer05but tbh I'd not use a R/2R but a logarithmic network
23:08.34freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: actually that's what we used, now I remember
23:08.41DocScrutinizer05you can achieve 16bit quality witha 12bit-log DAC
23:08.48freemangordon9 resistors
23:09.22freemangordon1 with constant resistance and 8 with variable
23:09.34DocScrutinizer05of course you should encode your samples accordingly then
23:10.47freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: well, I had written a test program counting from 0 to 255 on PP, so nearly linear DAC was achievable by fine-tuning varable resistors
23:11.31freemangordon*variable
23:12.08freemangordonhowever, I need some sleep
23:12.13freemangordonnight
23:13.06DocScrutinizer05just woke up, finding his fridge as empty as the last 4 days :-/
23:13.52DocScrutinizer05wonders if flu not vanishing is the cause or maybe also the result of this
23:17.47DocScrutinizer05increeeedible, a useful SPAM to council ML
23:27.39merlin1991huh?
23:29.36DocScrutinizer05council@maemo.org got a unsolicited mail from koon-hongkong - about *phones*
23:30.05DocScrutinizer05emergency phones though
23:30.24DocScrutinizer05like for elevators, highway etc
23:32.15DocScrutinizer05koontech.com
23:33.03DocScrutinizer05respect for their spamming department
