| 02:32.34 | megabyte405 | The point of the page really is to get syncing |
| 02:32.42 | megabyte405 | I suppose I could link more directly to the one-click install files |
| 02:32.51 | megabyte405 | you don't need red pill for them |
| 02:33.47 | Vertoo | ya, cause just skimming through there i couldn't find a one click. and dont really have time to read the whole thing lol |

| 02:43.03 | Vertoo | megabyte405: ^ |
| 02:43.37 | megabyte405 | Vertoo: I've been developing for a while, but I didn't put a lot of effort into this because I needed to bootstrap it quick for Google Summer of Code |
| 02:43.42 | megabyte405 | so it is certainly not my best work |
| 02:44.13 | megabyte405 | I know it's a little wordy - but I wanted to get enough keywords in there so anybody searching would find the stuff - before I made that page, there was no N800 GPE sync instructions online |
| 02:45.02 | Vertoo | gotcha. may i suggest something? |
| 02:45.11 | megabyte405 | sure |
| 02:45.21 | megabyte405 | but do keep in mind, this is not my masterpiece - it's a working document |
| 02:46.58 | Vertoo | since your target audience will likely read that on their nokia, a simple anchor navigation would improve it alot, i a. browsing on mine, and still cant find that one click install just by browsing through it. |
| 02:47.03 | pupnik | GeneralAntilles: did you find the answer yet? |
| 02:47.11 | megabyte405 | nokia is not my target market for the site |
| 02:47.24 | megabyte405 | it's my personal web site/document storage - I just happened to write a page useful for nokia folks |
| 02:47.29 | GeneralAntilles | Yes, it's working. Thanks. |
| 02:47.41 | Vertoo | i understand the document style site, which is why navigation is essential. |
| 02:47.42 | megabyte405 | I should add internal anchor navs to the site engine, though, that would be useful |
| 02:48.00 | pupnik | i didn't know there is a script. How did you get it working? I would like an easy way to enable the cursor *only* when synergy is running |
| 02:48.16 | pupnik | because cursor breaks xsp pixel doubling when you touch the screen |
| 02:48.21 | Vertoo | i didn't look at the site, just the page. |
| 02:48.55 | rhsanborn | Is there a doc somewhere that explains the basic methods to compile software using the sk? (using indt image) |
| 02:49.10 | megabyte405 | rhsanborn: same way you would on linux |
| 02:49.11 | GeneralAntilles | pupnik, it can only be changed back and forth after a reboot, so I don't see any way to have it change only with Synergy activation. |
| 02:49.24 | rhsanborn | megabyte405: great, thanks |
| 02:49.47 | megabyte405 | easiest thing to do is to get debian source packages and do dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot inside of them |
| 02:49.58 | Vertoo | excuse me if i sound pretentious or come off rude. i have been designing for a few years, mostly personal stuff, but i have always appreciated others input |
| 02:50.05 | pupnik | GeneralAntilles: so much to do, so little time |
| 02:50.26 | GeneralAntilles | Hehe |
| 02:51.39 | megabyte405 | Vertoo: no, that's a good point |
| 02:51.52 | megabyte405 | It would be relatively easy for me to add an automatic anchor at each heading |
| 02:52.02 | megabyte405 | the harder part is coming up with a sane way to refer to it, but that's not too bad |
| 02:52.34 | megabyte405 | I generally keep pages small enough that I don't need anchors, but it probably helps search engine stuff too, I bet |
| 02:54.10 | Vertoo | ya it does, plus when people can jump the page to exactly where they need to go they like it more. |

| 07:09.47 | Xark | CoutDown: I haven't tried recompiling the kernel yet. Haven't really felt a need so far. |
| 07:11.07 | CountDown | Xark: I'll probably be feeling the need real soon, but I might set up the scratchbox dev environment instead. |
| 07:11.18 | Xark | CountDown: One thing I have found is that my unit isn't 100% reliable. I notice that some of the Internal compiler errors I was experiencing are intermittant (I can try "make" again and it will work). So I suspect either hardware problems or some kind of software corruption. |
| 07:12.04 | Xark | CountDown: I am wondering if you have seen any "flakey" behavior like that. |
| 07:12.47 | Xark | CountDown: Since I had similar problems when running from jffs, I don't suspect my MMC fs as the cause. |
| 07:13.17 | Xark | CountDown: What features are you missing in the stock kernel? |
| 07:13.27 | Xark | CountDown: USB stuff? |
| 07:15.09 | CountDown | Xark: I haven't noticed anything flakey, but I only needed GCC to compile a single library and probably won't be using it again soon. |
| 07:16.00 | CountDown | Xark: I need to add a patch to the stock kernel so that USB host mode can be enabled. |
| 07:16.50 | CountDown | What I was hoping to be a one day effort looks like it will take closer to a week. |
| 07:16.56 | Xark | CountDown: Yeah, I haven't really noticed much else but gcc "randomly" die (not to say I haven't seen apps crash...). |
| 07:18.01 | Veggen | Hmm. USB host mode on N800 is sort of interesting. I'd like to use it as a field upload device for my camera. |
| 07:18.14 | Xark | CountDown: You are trying to get your N800 to where you already had your N770 (with respect to your device)? |
| 07:18.43 | Veggen | (when on scout trips, for example. Parents like that, seeing what their kids do) |
| 07:19.17 | CountDown | Xark: Yeah, that's what really gets me about this... it was working so well with the 770. |
| 07:19.28 | Xark | Veggen: That would be pretty handy. Or more songs in the field for your DAP. :) |
| 07:19.53 | Veggen | Xark: oh, I'd probably rather use the N800 for DAP ;) |
| 07:20.01 | CountDown | Veggen: I'm really surprised it's not in the stock kernel. |
| 07:20.17 | Veggen | CD: yes, it's rather annoying |
| 07:20.47 | Veggen | They should also - at least as an add-on - provide a hub/cables that actually provided the N800s port with power. |
| 07:21.43 | Xark | CountDown: At least there seems to be pretty good doc for rebuilding the kernel (unlike rebuilding the toolchain). :-) |
| 07:21.46 | Veggen | but, I think there's the business people, not the geeks, that decides what'll be in the stock install. |
| 07:21.54 | Veggen | looks definitely like t. |
| 07:22.31 | CountDown | Veggen: Ha! I don't think business folk even know what a kernel is. |
| 07:22.51 | CountDown | Veggen: My guess is that the new chipset posed problems that they didn't have time to address. |
| 07:23.17 | Veggen | CD: oh, they'll need the input from the geeks. But pick random features that the geek tell them they can have, based on buzzwords? |
| 07:23.24 | CountDown | Xark: Which doc are you referring to? |
| 07:23.35 | Veggen | CD: could also be an explanation ;) |
| 07:23.38 | Xark | CountDown: I think there was a wiki page on rebuilding the kernel. |
| 07:23.44 | CountDown | Veggen: True. |
| 07:24.04 | CountDown | Xark: Thanks, I'll take a look. |
| 07:24.52 | Xark | CountDown: http://maemo.org/development/documentation/how-tos/3-x/howto_kernel_guide_bora.html |

| 10:01.35 | pupnik | lardman: no it wasn't |
| 10:01.57 | lardman | pupnik: hang on let me look at my results, and okay |
| 10:02.51 | lardman | pupnik: Curious as my N800 manages 200000.0 dhrystones |
| 10:03.27 | pupnik | so 2000 dmips = 2,000,000,000 dhrystones? |
| 10:03.33 | lardman | I guess so |
| 10:03.54 | lardman | factor of 1000 |
| 10:03.57 | lardman | pretty impressive |
| 10:05.12 | pupnik | heh. if the core is 2x as fast as the 2420, i'm sold |
| 10:05.47 | jani | lardman: well, the image was 640x480 which sounds a bit fishy if its really is n800 .. |
| 10:05.47 | lardman | supposedly there are faster versions on the omap2420 |
| 10:05.58 | lardman | jani: I think pupnik's comment above was saying that it wasn't from an n800, just from an omap2420 |
| 10:06.06 | pupnik | right |
| 10:06.11 | pupnik | "The ARM Cortex-A8 processor delivers up to 2,000 DMIPS. By comparison, current ARM 9 chips typically achieve around 150-300 DMIPS." |

| 10:07.38 | lardman | see the last comment :D |
| 10:10.00 | lardman | ah, DMIPS isn't == dhrystones/1e6 |
| 10:10.01 | pupnik | hrm. 'd'=dishonest, deceptive... :/ |
| 10:10.12 | pupnik | oh |
| 10:10.12 | lardman | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhrystone, see the Results sectioon |
| 10:12.05 | lardman | Strange wording there. Why just divide by an arbitrary number, surely they mean that the dhystone loops/s has to be divided by mips on the device in question |
| 10:13.08 | lardman | ah, perhaps one just multiplies the mips value by the arbitrary number and doesn't need to run dhrystone? |
| 10:14.28 | sp3000 | lardman: you'd divide by an arbitrary factor to scale the dhrys to a kind of mips scale where it coincides at the 1mips machine mentioned |
| 10:15.01 | lardman | sp3000: But you gain little by doing it, other than normalising the data |
| 10:15.28 | lardman | sp3000: and it wouldn't work where mips are not proportional to dhrystone loops/s |
| 10:15.32 | *** join/#maemo bilboed (n=bilboed@pdpc/supporter/active/bilboed) |
| 10:16.51 | sp3000 | taht just means your definition of work differs from that indended by the scaling |
| 10:16.55 | pupnik | what do you think the chances are that there will be an n800 successor? and will it use omap3? |
| 10:17.12 | lardman | If we go by the numbers in the article, it appears it will be ~10x faster |
| 10:18.04 | pupnik | if it's 2x faster, it means dumb people like me will be able to port over a lot more games and emus |
| 10:18.47 | gla55_ | though, if the 10x faster speeds are for over ghz |
| 10:20.16 | lardman | well if you divide my loops/s (200,000) by the DMIPS adjustment factor (1757) you get 113.8304 DMIPS |

| 14:23.50 | *** join/#maemo bilboed (n=bilboed@pdpc/supporter/active/bilboed) |
| 14:23.57 | trevarthan | what are the chances that is just because drpocketsnes uses a framebuffer rather than X11 + SDL? |
| 14:23.59 | eugene | i wish someone from maemo know it by now that the planet maemo is very broken |
| 14:25.24 | zuh | eugene: How is it broken? |
| 14:25.31 | zuh | Looks fine to me... |
| 14:25.40 | eugene | zuh: try to add the feed to a rss reader |
| 14:25.47 | pupnik | trevarthan: the snes ppu has to process many layers and do many additive effects, then there are transparency issues and in-scanline pallette changes and raster ops. all of that consumes orders of magnitude more time than the final blit. |
| 14:26.48 | tigert | sure we are in guadec |

| 14:28.06 | X-Fade_ | eugene: Works for me[tm] ? |
| 14:28.24 | X-Fade_ | What kind of problems are you seeing? |
| 14:28.30 | Sho_ | hm, nice that the next two major versions of Maemo have been confirmed for the N800 |
| 14:28.38 | Sho_ | looks like they've learned from the N770 debacle |
| 14:28.58 | eugene | X-Fade_: the feeds keep repeating itself everyday instead of showing me the new blog postings. |
| 14:29.04 | trevarthan | pupnik: I want to believe you, but 1.) you don't have a working version to prove it and 2.) Nothing on the DrPocketSnes site or the pocketsnes site states that they are faster than snes9x and why.... |

| 14:30.39 | sciboy | Is a 770 still worth getting? |
| 14:31.04 | pupnik | put it this way sciboy - i don't think i'll ever sell mine |
| 14:31.17 | X-Fade | eugene: I will look into it and file a bug if I notice this too.. |
| 14:31.37 | eugene | X-Fade: thanks a lot |
| 14:31.51 | X-Fade | eugene: But the RSS feed source looks fine to me. No old articles that have a new date? |
| 14:31.57 | Sho_ | IMO the N770 has always been too weak hardware-wise to do a lot of interesting things with it |
| 14:31.58 | trevarthan | sciboy: I'd get an n800 if I were you. |
| 14:32.14 | sciboy | I would too if it wasn't going to cost me nearly a grand. |
| 14:32.34 | trevarthan | huh? they only cost 400USD... |

| 14:36.37 | X-Fade | tigert: The thing that _is_ bad, is that the browser website itself doesn't work on Opera :) |

| 14:39.46 | X-Fade | timeless: extra line above navigation.. |

| 14:42.03 | dpb_ | you'd think it would be fixed for the device ;) |
| 14:42.38 | trevarthan | Oh sweet, maemo just got SIP support natively: http://rtcomm.garage.maemo.org/#usage |
| 14:42.40 | X-Fade | dpb_: This mozilla engine renders it a few pixels wider.. Go figure ;) |
| 14:42.44 | disq | trevarthan: hey how's it going with kagu? |
| 14:43.20 | trevarthan | disq: still plugging away. Just added scrolling titles last night. Updated screenshots a few days ago: https://www.guardiani.us/projects/kagu/wiki/ScreenShots |
| 14:43.31 | Fatal | woop, dark orange on slightly brighter orange <3 [downloads] |
| 14:43.31 | timeless | x-fade: it could be worse |
| 14:43.43 | timeless | the browser web site temporarily had the install link on the second to last page |
| 14:43.48 | timeless | and you couldn't reach it w/ opera :( |
| 14:43.55 | X-Fade | timeless: Scroll back :) |
| 14:44.04 | X-Fade | That is what I told tigert :) |
| 14:44.23 | timeless | can you be specific about extra line? |
| 14:44.27 | X-Fade | I noticed this problem this afternoon already. |
| 14:44.45 | trevarthan | disq: I keep adding things on the TTD in front of the really important items. :( I'll get to my release milestone eventually though. I'm going to be adding audiobook support next so it will remember your playback position. AFAIK nothing for maemo has that functionality yet. |
| 14:44.54 | X-Fade | timeless: Do you have the bowser installed? |
| 14:44.54 | timeless | sorry, i'm stuck in scrollback |
| 14:45.06 | timeless | x-fade: only on about 6 devices |
| 14:45.18 | timeless | but wirfi here is such a pain because they keep knocking over the wifi hotspots |
| 14:45.18 | X-Fade | Ok.. follow me ;) |
| 14:45.50 | disq | trevarthan: yeah no player has it yet. also maybe bookmark-position support? but it could be complicated in the ui |
| 14:46.14 | X-Fade | timeless: the line about 5 pixels above the navigation bar, should not be there at all. |
| 14:46.19 | disq | trevarthan: how about play mode support? repeat album, switch to next album, repeat one song |
| 14:46.29 | disq | currently i think it repeats the album indefinately |
| 14:46.37 | trevarthan | disq: I'm going to keep it real simple at first. 1.) Add PositionView. 2.) make all mp3s with audiobook* genre remember position by default. |
| 14:46.38 | timeless | you bmean the one under ma[e]mo? |
| 14:47.16 | X-Fade | timeless: And if you go to the 'intro' page from maemo.. between the orange word 'Inter' and 'Maemo provides...' |
| 14:47.19 | timeless | x-faade: fwiw, i'm the idiot responsible for the picture you were looking at |

| 14:47.21 | trevarthan | disq: I'm all for it. I've just got bigger fish to fry right now. I want to improve the playlist functionality too. |
| 14:47.22 | timeless | so feel free to blame me :) |
| 14:47.25 | disq | trevarthan: is it possible to add different player ui's without forking the code, in the current state? |
| 14:47.41 | X-Fade | timeless: I told Ferenc already this afternoon.. |
| 14:47.43 | timeless | hello world |
| 14:47.59 | timeless | all your bugs will belong to me |
| 14:48.05 | timeless | something like that :( |
| 14:48.18 | X-Fade | timeless: And I do all css related stuff on maemo.org ;) |
| 14:48.25 | trevarthan | Themes? yes. there is nearly complete theme support right now. If by 'ui' you mean different widgets, then no, not yet. But I'm willing to accept any well designed widgets you create. |
| 14:48.26 | timeless | x-fade: nice to meet you |
| 14:49.05 | disq | trevarthan: i mean a completely different player ui. gtk instead of images, etc |
| 14:49.30 | trevarthan | oh, no. kagu is and will always be a pygame app. |
| 14:49.40 | disq | okay |
| 14:49.51 | trevarthan | you might take a look at pymp if you want a gtk player though. |
| 14:50.02 | trevarthan | it's simple, clean, and well designed. |
| 14:50.18 | Jaffa | tigert: woohoo :-) |
| 14:51.12 | jsmanrique | that "maemo-browser" looks promising |
| 14:51.25 | disq | i was thinking something in the lines of making different ui's, like a textmode ui, a gtk ui, and such |
| 14:51.51 | jsmanrique | after years using minimo in differents devices, this looks really promising |
| 14:52.00 | *** join/#maemo VimS (n=vims@dslb-084-061-098-193.pools.arcor-ip.net) |
| 14:52.08 | jsmanrique | congratulations to developers |
| 14:52.17 | trevarthan | disq: that's a neat idea. Do you think kagu adds enough functionality to the basic mplayer backend to warrant such a thing? |
| 14:52.33 | X-Fade | timeless: Just check the maemo website on your pc and on the N800. You will see gray lines at places you don't see them on your pc.. |
| 14:52.45 | lardman|afk | bedboi: You can do ethernet over usb |
| 14:53.24 | lardman|afk | bedboi: Iirc, you need to enable it via the flasher, and it stops dynatick working, so your battery will go flat quickly |
| 14:53.31 | disq | trevarthan: it has songdb, clean and proper code, etc |
| 14:53.32 | X-Fade | timeless: also notice the rendering bug at the right bottom of the secondary navigation 'Documentation Tutorials Roadmap' |
| 14:53.34 | lardman|afk | bedboi: You need to insmod the kernel module |
| 14:53.36 | trevarthan | disq: when I started kagu, I had three goals in mind: 1.) Make a GUI for A2DP support 2.) Play with my iphone like intertial scroll widget idea 3.) create a player that handles audio books well for maemo. |
| 14:54.19 | trevarthan | disq: I've accomplished #1. I'm very close to finishing #3, and #2 will follow shortly. :) |
| 14:54.53 | jsmanrique | would "maemo-browser" work in a 770 device? |
| 14:54.55 | lardman|afk | bedboi: ignore my flasher comment, just modprobe/insmod the module. Got my wires crossed |
| 14:55.15 | trevarthan | disq: unfortunately, for #2 I needed pygame. So that object structure is very pygame dependent with update loops and such. You don't need those with GTK. GTK is more callback based, I think. |
| 14:55.21 | disq | trevarthan: with multiple ui's, after finishing with pygame you could try evas for instance. would need a configurator that lets the user choose ui-type and ui-theme. |
| 14:55.22 | timeless | oh, you mean you don't make maemo look special for mobile devices? |
| 14:55.29 | timeless | we made the browser page work special on most devices |
| 14:55.30 | X-Fade | timeless: nope.. |
| 14:55.36 | timeless | e.g. we made it look awful on ie6 :) |
| 14:55.47 | timeless | and we made it vritually unusable in opera for n800 :) |
| 14:56.02 | timeless | actually, a minor fix for that went in a few moments ago |
| 14:56.02 | trevarthan | disq: is evas more like pygame or more like gtk? |
| 14:56.13 | disq | trevarthan: btw i still couldn't start the kagu-scanner pygtk thingy. messed around with osso-statusbar-cpu in my free time |
| 14:56.23 | disq | trevarthan: not sure, i'm guessing pygame |
| 14:56.34 | X-Fade | timeless: I make it work on Firefox, IE, Safari on Linux, Win and Mac.. |
| 14:56.42 | timeless | x-fade: ah yes, i didn't worry about that :) |

| 15:17.21 | disq | i was meaning to do it for a long time (since n770) but the media players didn't have api to read song info |
| 15:18.12 | disq | even mailed folks at nokia asking for info (if there are undocumented dbus calls to get the info, etc) they couldn't help me. seeing ukmp and kagu making so much progress decided to go with it anyways |
| 15:18.38 | sciboy | So with that screen size how easy is it to read an A4 PDF document? |
| 15:18.40 | timeless | what were you looking for? |
| 15:18.54 | timeless | sciboy: provide a url as a testcase |
| 15:18.59 | disq | btw the new firmware announces "current song title" via a dbus signal (and you can read song position/length with a method call, too) but no artist/album info |
| 15:19.02 | timeless | ask people "how easy is it to read <thisurl>" |
| 15:19.17 | timeless | amorphous generic questions are not a good way to get anywhere |
| 15:19.37 | timeless | e.g. i might gladly load the url you link to and answer your question |

| 15:19.56 | timeless | i wouldn't recognize an A4 document if it tapped me on the shoulder |
| 15:20.08 | trevarthan | Yeah, I'm hoping ukmp inspires a bit of a media player renascence for the maemo platform. I was baffled when I bought my n800 and all the media players were proprietary. |

| 15:31.20 | timeless | because svn makes it a lot easier for people to make a very very big mess |
| 15:31.26 | timeless | it's a lot easier to screw up merges |
| 15:31.39 | timeless | it's a lot easier to leave branches all over the place |
| 15:31.47 | X-Fade | timeless: Where does your bugzilla live? Which product? |
| 15:31.55 | timeless | it's a lot easier to have files in places no one will ever find them |

| 15:34.59 | disq | joshin: not really. some use ext2, some use ext3. i use ext2. |
| 15:35.18 | trevarthan | timeless: SVN is great for small projects though. |
| 15:35.20 | timeless | trevarthan: anyway, svn makes it easy for people to develop bad habbits |
| 15:35.21 | disq | joshin: in fact recently there's another discussion about this in maemo-developers |

| 15:46.00 | timeless | x-fade: ok |

| 15:46.27 | trevarthan | disq: what do you think about the scrolling text? |
| 15:46.32 | disq | trevarthan: maybe nokia should leave the current sucky media player as is, leave it to developers and focus on the platform. it's good and all but we all know how much time they're going to lose if they implement all that changes we (mostly I) suggested in the bugzilla. metacrawler still sucks after two updates, i have it disabled. dives into my sardine partition and never comes back |
| 15:47.25 | timeless | disq: last i checked the latest internal version of metacrawler doesn't reread files starting from each byte offset :) |
| 15:47.33 | timeless | (shipping versions did)_ |
| 15:47.44 | X-Fade | timeless: Doesn't work either. Something keeps overwriting that file with it's default settings.. |
| 15:47.46 | disq | trevarthan: it might need padding (1 or 2px) at both sides. maybe give it a little sinus wave? leave the track number unscrolling? |
| 15:47.54 | timeless | x-fade: is the browser running? |
| 15:48.13 | trevarthan | disq: yeah, I don't understand why they don't focus on the OS API and just package OSS apps like pidgin as the default chat client. |
| 15:48.16 | disq | by sinus i mean sine. sorry. |
| 15:48.47 | X-Fade | timeless: Ah, it saves on close :) |
| 15:48.52 | trevarthan | disq: ok, padding. I'll do that. Track number. I'll do that too. What do you mean by sine wave? |
| 15:49.04 | disq | trevarthan: make it scroll slow to fast to slow, or fast to slow to fast. |
| 15:49.06 | X-Fade | timeless: So I changed the file, closed the browser :) |

| 15:50.17 | disq | trevarthan: erm. no, when it's selected like now. instead of scrolling at a constant speed, start slow, get faster in the middle, etc. it might not be noticable on short song titles though |

| 16:01.15 | disq | trevarthan: okay. btw, if you search at google you'll find wavy text (text baseline going up and down like a sine wave) it's not that one i'm talking about. the idea is to get the text scrolling speed (velocity, if you will) change depending on the closeness to the beginning/end. |
| 16:01.21 | timeless | sciboy; no :) |
| 16:02.01 | X-Fade | Hmm found another microb bug.. Zooming in doesn't scale background images.. |

| 16:02.54 | disq | trevarthan: rtcomm installed fine for me. if you have gpe or openedhand pim repositories it would be wise to disable them though (the known bug about evolution* could be triggered by that) |

| 16:07.15 | trevarthan | man.... risk bricking my sdhc card to get SIP support, or play it safe, foresaking SIP support, and safely continue development on kagu with my 4gb sdhc card? |
| 16:07.22 | knipknap | how feasible is it to make an application that uses pigment and avahi-python on maemo/nokia 770? are these libraries available on maemo? is avahi already provided? |
| 16:07.54 | trevarthan | timeless: maybe I should just put my 4gb card in the internal slot? I haven't seen any complaints about the internal slot bricking anything.... |
| 16:08.07 | disq | trevarthan: i don't think you can physically brick memory cards with the n800 |
| 16:08.25 | trevarthan | disq: they haven't found a way to repair them. |

| 16:09.32 | timeless | trevarthan: having lost a 2gb card i worked hard to get to /something/ |
| 16:09.44 | timeless | i'd personally not use any big cards that i bought w/ my own money :) |
| 16:10.21 | timeless | that bug report is useless |
| 16:10.26 | timeless | it's a bunch of rambling complaints |
| 16:10.31 | timeless | including a "Fixed" marker |
| 16:10.39 | timeless | who chose to reopen it and why? |
| 16:10.42 | disq | i had similar (mount-ro-wtf) problems with my 2gb rsmmc in the external slot, with the prev firmware btw |
| 16:10.45 | trevarthan | that dude with the sdhc patches needs to release another 3rd party kernel for the latest firmware so I don't have to worry about it. |
| 16:11.09 | disq | it went away after a format (lost some maps) |
| 16:11.13 | disq | trevarthan: i agree |
| 16:11.43 | timeless | slightly better would be a kernel w/ mmc debug logging enabled |
| 16:12.17 | trevarthan | timeless: are you saying that 1204 is useless? |

| 16:12.41 | timeless | trevarthan: bugs need to be about a single specific problem |
| 16:13.01 | timeless | if someone fixes something, then unless the fix causes regressions, a new bug should be filed for new instances of similar problems |
| 16:13.01 | disq | trevarthan: another player idea would be a portrait view. doable with pygame, not doable with gtk unless the user has a patched x server |
| 16:13.15 | timeless | you can't know if the problem you're experiencing stems from the same problem |
| 16:13.23 | timeless | it is very easy for there to be 2 bugs that trigger corruption |
| 16:13.47 | pupnik | well trev, i haven't seen fps numbers for snes9x on the gp2x. just reports that 'it's slow' and that drpocketsnes and squidgesnes are 'full speed' or 'near full speed'. The three main performance elements are 1) mmu hack which we can't apply to the nokias 2) PPU, Sound optimisations 3) FB rendering (which we could do on nokia) |
| 16:13.48 | timeless | if there are 10 different ways to trigger each of 2 bugs that trigger corruption |
| 16:14.01 | timeless | then some of the ways are no longer relevant once the first bug is fixed |
| 16:14.09 | trevarthan | timeless: disq: here's the mailing list thread if you're interested: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.maemo.devel/10712/focus=10720 |

| 16:14.50 | pupnik | Where does the crew of the Enterprise go to work-out? |
| 16:14.56 | pupnik | "The It's Dead Gym" |
| 16:15.01 | disq | trevarthan: i'm read almost all of the posts in maemo-devel, sardine-devel and maemo-users (talk about free time) |
| 16:15.13 | trevarthan | disq: I'm *definitely* going to do a portrait view. But I'm going to do it after a release. |
| 16:16.16 | disq | trevarthan: yeah. btw, you should have a list for the todo items before the first release and just focus on them |
| 16:16.27 | trevarthan | pupnik: ah. so we're only getting PPU optimizations on Nokia, unless we decide to go the FB route. Are you using SDL or FB? |
| 16:17.13 | pupnik | SDL, but i've looked at siarhei's (sp?) mplayer fb hack and that's doable |
| 16:17.23 | disq | trevarthan: because the player is mostly good and usable right now. (add exit confirmation to esc key?) |
| 16:17.59 | trevarthan | disq: I do. It's the part of TTD before "- Place project on Maemo Garage." |
| 16:18.30 | disq | i think that's too much stuff |
| 16:18.56 | timeless | ok |
| 16:18.56 | trevarthan | disq: I definitely want to add gst support before I make a release. I don't think mplayer should be a requirement. |
| 16:19.02 | disq | possible to make a slightly half assed but equal functioning release |
| 16:19.02 | timeless | so the original problem... |
| 16:19.43 | timeless | a certain Hama 4GB SD card had a CRC problem with a fast MMC clock frequency |
| 16:20.06 | timeless | lowering the frequency to 24MHz enabled a copy from the card to work |
| 16:20.21 | trevarthan | disq: I could add gst support and release now... I just don't have any motivation to. What would that buy me besides release-day headaches? |
| 16:20.46 | timeless | a Transcend MiniSD 4GB SDHC otoh.. which also had CRC errors |
| 16:21.03 | disq | mmm.. i shall make a lolcat-of-the-day-background-image-changer |
| 16:21.03 | timeless | well, lowering the clock speed caused the CRC errors to disappear |
| 16:21.18 | timeless | but the card then responded with command timeouts to block reads |
| 16:21.39 | timeless | anyway, that's all the information available internally |
| 16:22.00 | disq | trevarthan: people are out there, starving for a good music player! :P though you're partly right, there are so much media players out right now. to stand out you need to offer a near complete release |
| 16:22.03 | timeless | the 2gb micro sd card i had also was visible as timeouts iirc |
| 16:22.17 | timeless | the guy i gave it to couldn't figure out what to do with it |
| 16:22.25 | disq | or so many. rather than so much. |
| 16:22.35 | timeless | anyway... |
| 16:22.58 | timeless | if you or anyone else wants to hunt down the problem, you'll almost certainly need kernel mmc debugging enabled |
| 16:23.09 | trevarthan | disq: that's what I was thinking. those things on the list now are what I think I need in order for kagu to be really attractive to people and stand out. I don't think many people use A2DP. other than that, maemoscrobbler support is the only thing that kagu currently offers that ukmp doesn't offer. |
| 16:23.27 | timeless | it /might/ be possible to ship sd cards to nokia, however i suspect, at least from prior experience that there are enough already |
| 16:23.59 | timeless | nokia does actually have at least one such card |
| 16:24.18 | timeless | (the debugging output wasn't enough for the engineer to figure out a fix from a cursory inspection) |
| 16:24.39 | trevarthan | disq: oh, I'd need a gui for ukmp-scanner and I'd need to add makefiles for the deb before a release too, so the number of things in front of those critical items isn't really that long. |
| 16:24.39 | disq | trevarthan: btw have you considered downloading album covers from other sites? sniff itunes traffic? allmusic.com? i'll work on that. |
| 16:24.58 | trevarthan | disq: nope. but go ahead. sounds good. |
| 16:25.26 | Jaffa | trevarthan/disq: does it currently use "cover.jpg" et al? Or just ID3 album art? |
| 16:25.45 | trevarthan | Jaffa: yeah. it'll use cover.jpg and folder.jpg. |
| 16:26.09 | trevarthan | I think ukmp only uses cover.jpg right now. |

| 16:41.31 | trevarthan | Hyperion|n800: the funny thing is that we were just discussing that bug. timeless had a 4 page rant about it. The sad thing is that your mmc card might be bricked. Hopefully not. But maybe. |
| 16:41.33 | sciboy | disq, If I had much freedom to shop around elsewhere, I would. |
| 16:41.46 | timeless | odds are it's a brick |
| 16:41.48 | timeless | it's not funny |
| 16:42.49 | timeless | actually, the gmane list is kinda conufsed |
| 16:42.58 | timeless | 54313 wasn't really about "file corruption" |
| 16:43.04 | timeless | it was about CRCs preventing file copies |
| 16:43.19 | timeless | i can't stick that into the bug now because it's morphed |
| 16:43.29 | timeless | (and this is why morphing bugs is bad) |
| 16:43.44 | Hyperion|n800 | trevarthan, heh, ok |
| 16:44.33 | timeless | btw, not that you'd like it, but i suspect that if you read the nokia handbook |
| 16:44.38 | trevarthan | Nokia needs to recall that firmware. |
| 16:44.49 | timeless | it probably says something like "only use official nokia supported cards" |
| 16:45.06 | timeless | and then has a tiny list of nokia vendor cards |
| 16:45.14 | timeless | it'd be good if someone could get one of those corrupted :) |
| 16:45.20 | timeless | (much better leverage) |
| 16:45.35 | Hyperion|n800 | also, is there any way to install the packages needed for skype all at once and not individualy? |
| 16:45.39 | trevarthan | I bet someone could. I suspect the problem happens regardless of vendor. |
| 16:46.05 | timeless | trevarthan: i believe so too, just noting that it really can't be me |
| 16:46.14 | timeless | and really, at this point, that's about the only way to speed things up. |
| 16:46.23 | timeless | practically speaking, nothing can happen before mid august |
| 16:46.55 | trevarthan | I wonder if calling Nokia tech support and bitching would help? |
| 16:46.58 | timeless | the biggest change from my perspective in the firmware was a fix for dead touchscreens |
| 16:47.09 | timeless | trevarthan: they log them like bean counters |
| 16:47.17 | timeless | if enough people overfill a bean bucket, it's noticed |
| 16:47.55 | trevarthan | yeah, that's what I figured. Hyperion|n800: please call Nokia and complain loudly because their firmware bricked your card. |
| 16:48.36 | timeless | be sure to include some details |
| 16:48.44 | trevarthan | no f'ing way I'm upgrading. shame too. I really want to play with SIP and the touch screen fixes too. |
| 16:48.47 | timeless | like it doesn't work in my nokia <specify phone> anymore |
| 16:48.47 | Hyperion|n800 | heh ok |

| 16:51.01 | timeless | yeah yeah, blame me for you following my advice |
| 16:51.36 | db48x | so anyway, here's a generic debian question |
| 16:51.58 | timeless | oh, someone asked about installing all the pieces of skype |
| 16:52.03 | db48x | is there a standard way to make dpkg-buildpackage use a different directory to create the package in? |
| 16:52.11 | timeless | you can always make a trivial ;.install or .deb package with requirements to make it works |
| 16:53.02 | Hyperion|n800 | ah ok |
| 16:53.34 | timeless | you probably want -V {something} |
| 16:54.25 | Hyperion|n800 | timeless, it tells me that some of the packages are missing etc. do you now what repositories they might be in? |
| 16:54.55 | timeless | oh |
| 16:55.08 | timeless | you almost certainly need the latest version of the system :) |
| 16:55.14 | timeless | give me the package names and i'll let you know |
| 16:55.22 | timeless | hyperion: ie the ones that will brick things |
| 16:56.07 | Hyperion|n800 | heh |
| 16:56.12 | disq | trevarthan: inspected, decided the sine wave scroll is not the thing for the song title. because it's best when the text is going back and forth (think knight rider effect) it's kinda pointless to use it with the song title wrapping around. it could be used in other places, like when the songlister scrolls (to get it to stop faster maybe, useful for fast scrolls) |
| 16:56.29 | pupnik | hehe @ knight rider |
| 16:57.24 | Hyperion|n800 | timeless, I´ll deal with it later, thanks |
| 16:57.41 | disq | trevarthan: the code is something like this: "math.sin((math.pi*current_step/2)/max_step)" this gives you a nonlinear number between 0.0 and 0.999 depending on current_step's location in max_step. |
| 16:58.50 | db48x | no, you mean it computes a nonlinear function, not that the resulting number itself is nonlinear |
| 16:59.02 | disq | exactly |
| 17:03.20 | Hyperion|n800 | timeless, do you know which one the osso-bookmarks package is in? |

| 17:25.50 | timeless | i've used QNX devices (Audrey) |

| 17:26.38 | timeless | the reason embedders (Nokia, QSSL) |

| 18:10.31 | gomiam | what kind of non-linear rate would you want to compute, trevarthan? |
| 18:10.51 | trevarthan | I don't really. :) that's why I'm asking disq. It's his code. |
| 18:10.59 | gomiam | ah :-D |
| 18:11.14 | disq | trevarthan: you could multiply it with the max velocity. it would give you the velocity for step current_step |
| 18:11.40 | trevarthan | where max_step == max velocity? |
| 18:11.50 | gomiam | trevarthan: nope. |
| 18:12.00 | trevarthan | yeah, sorry. terrible at rates.... |
| 18:12.04 | gomiam | the code you pasted gives you values between 0 and 1 |
| 18:12.20 | disq | no. max_step is the length of the "track". current_step is the animated item's position in that track |
| 18:12.26 | gomiam | (if 0<=current_step<=max_step) |
| 18:13.27 | trevarthan | disq: wouldn't that give you an always increasing rate though? |
| 18:14.07 | disq | for instance you could use it to animate/slide the album cover image at the bottom, when the album changes. the cover image would start sliding from the bottom fast (or slow) and get slower (or faster) as it reaches its target position |
| 18:14.50 | trevarthan | ah. so that gives a non-linear rate, but it's up to you to set the limit. |
| 18:14.51 | disq | trevarthan: the thing is it's supposed to increase in relation to a sine wave |
| 18:14.52 | trevarthan | I see. |
| 18:15.29 | trevarthan | I would probably use a spline for that same sort of thing, or a hyperbola.... |
| 18:15.52 | gomiam | trevarthan: I'm more partial to parabolae ;-P |
| 18:16.04 | disq | though probably doing these kinds of things with evas should be much easier and even may not require any code. not sure, never used it |

| 18:23.00 | trevarthan | I've heard mention that the external SD card slot on the n800 has different electrical characteristics than the internal slot. It's possible that is what is causing these problems. Perhaps the problem exists in all firmwares. |

| 18:23.28 | Hyperion2010 | ya |
| 18:23.44 | trevarthan | If you can't get the n800 to shut off, pop the battery out. Happens to me all the time. |

| 18:26.44 | gomiam | While you are talking about firmware versions you have mentioned 26-4 |

| 18:27.14 | Hyperion2010 | blargh, still saying read only.... |
| 18:27.29 | Hyperion2010 | maybe it is 26-8 and I just miss typed |
| 18:27.35 | gomiam | Hyperion2010: stupid question, is the card in the "read-only position"? |
| 18:27.47 | Hyperion2010 | there's such a thing? |
| 18:27.49 | trevarthan | :) |
| 18:27.52 | gomiam | yep |
| 18:27.52 | Hyperion2010 | because it will write in windows |

| 18:28.06 | Hyperion2010 | when it is hooked through the usb |
| 18:28.16 | gomiam | check the SD card and it could have a white sliding plastic |
| 18:28.23 | timeless | ok, for kicks, we're installing microb on a much older os release :) |
| 18:28.29 | gomiam | with a text that says "LOCK" nearby |
| 18:28.43 | gomiam | I have had some surprises with it |
| 18:29.07 | Hyperion2010 | hr, the files on the card are marked read only |
| 18:29.15 | Hyperion2010 | but the folders are not.... |
| 18:29.18 | gomiam | ! |
| 18:29.22 | trevarthan | something else you might try: can you format the card in windows? Perhaps formatting will hide the problem? (no clue if that's even possible) |
| 18:29.32 | Hyperion2010 | no idea |
| 18:29.36 | gomiam | trevarthan: yes, you should be able to reformat the card |
| 18:29.37 | Hyperion2010 | its a fat 32 right? |
| 18:29.43 | trevarthan | yeah |
| 18:29.51 | Hyperion2010 | I'll give it a shot |
| 18:30.30 | teer2 | Who makes the default webbrowser? Is it opera? |
| 18:30.32 | trevarthan | I have to wonder if one of the bits on the card just went bad or something.... |
| 18:30.35 | trevarthan | yeah, opera. |
| 18:30.55 | teer2 | trevarthan: Thanks |
| 18:31.16 | gomiam | Hyperion2010: if you haven't started formatting, try creating a new file (if you didn't already) |
| 18:31.31 | Hyperion2010 | I will |
| 18:31.38 | Hyperion2010 | I'm backing stuff up atm |
| 18:31.42 | gomiam | ok |

| 18:35.00 | gomiam | jokes aside, you are right |
| 18:35.00 | trevarthan | gomiam: even the 64 bit version? |
| 18:35.16 | gomiam | trevarthan: well, they just put 4 16 bits kernels running concurrently |

| 18:36.42 | trevarthan | I hate mathematic notation. I don't understand a bit of it. I stopped thinking like that sometime after algebra because I started using computers.... |
| 18:36.48 | gomiam | "format through the usb connection" as in "through a USB SD-card reader"? |
| 18:37.08 | gomiam | trevarthan: ok, so what's it that is giving you problems now? |
| 18:37.20 | Hyperion2010 | well I have a card reader in my monitor, but I'm not sure that will work |
| 18:37.32 | Hyperion2010 | but when I plug the n800 into the usb |
| 18:37.33 | trevarthan | gomiam: I'm not telling. You'll make fun of me again. :-P |
| 18:37.44 | Hyperion2010 | it shows up as a drive which can be formatted |
| 18:37.54 | gomiam | trevarthan: no (not much, at any rate :-P ) |
| 18:38.21 | gomiam | no, really. What is it? |
| 18:38.42 | trevarthan | there's too much of it to communicate. I'll just look it all up. |
| 18:39.01 | gomiam | oh, pity. Good luck then |
| 18:39.37 | Hyperion2010 | when is 4.2007 scheduled for release? |

| 18:40.16 | Hyperion2010 | will the nokia updater software grab that? |

| 19:55.12 | X-Fade | Nah, but I was testing the browser. Finding rendering bugs.. |
| 19:55.21 | X-Fade | gpd: It replaces the original one.. |
| 19:55.35 | X-Fade | Or at least changes the engine to microb.. |
| 19:55.41 | gpd | holy crap - you mean no more opera? |
| 19:55.42 | _Shurik_ | I have no issues with opera |
| 19:55.59 | X-Fade | gpd: You can change it back :) |
| 19:56.26 | gpd | seems a little aggressive |
| 19:56.33 | X-Fade | I described it in this bug :) https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1669 |
| 19:56.35 | gpd | where do I change it back (lazy) |
| 19:56.47 | disq | gpd: edit ~/.browser, change hidden to true |
| 19:57.26 | gpd | wow - early days I guess |
| 19:57.31 | disq | gpd: then there'll be a menuitem in the browser to change it (or you could also change engine=microb to engine=opera) (make sure you don't have any browser windows open or it'll revert) |
| 19:57.34 | gpd | but a nice addition nonetheless :D |
| 19:57.40 | X-Fade | gpd: It is _beta_ :) |
| 19:57.50 | disq | afaik it's pre-beta actually |
| 19:58.01 | gpd | inded - i accept graciously |
| 19:58.10 | X-Fade | Well certainly not for endusers.. |
| 19:58.35 | X-Fade | But it does a pretty decent job.. |
| 19:58.36 | zuh | Seems to work fine with google calendar though, and seems faster to me than opera too |
| 19:58.44 | gpd | no danger of google gears until they release it for armel |
| 19:58.54 | zuh | But I use the browser so little I could be wrong ;) |
| 19:59.06 | X-Fade | Zuh, it is a little slower than opera to me.. Resizing is way slower.. |
| 19:59.28 | zuh | Could be, didn't actually test it that much yet |
| 19:59.41 | zuh | And that's the expectation anyway |
| 19:59.42 | X-Fade | And resizing is buggy. Hence bug 1671 ;) |
| 19:59.54 | disq | it hits the over 90% avg cpu mark easier than opera, whilst loading sites |
| 20:00.17 | X-Fade | But still. It is not bad. |
| 20:01.16 | Xark | gpd: I think it has a "Set Engine" file menu option to switch back to Opera... |
| 20:01.37 | _Shurik_ | I'd like for Opera to remember "optimized view" settings on per site basis |
| 20:02.02 | Xark | Shurik: Yes, since on some sites its a disaster and on others virtually required. |
| 20:02.21 | zuh | Perfectly adequate for my browsing on that thing, I dislike it in general so it's very rare (even more so since I don't have mobile net access anyway) |
| 20:02.25 | _Shurik_ | I wonder if anyone entered this as a request |
| 20:03.21 | _Shurik_ | but in general everyone is now going to start caring about low res devices all of the sudden |
| 20:03.38 | _Shurik_ | not that long ago noone cared about 800x600 anymore when designing sites |
| 20:03.47 | zuh | Yeah, and it shows |
| 20:04.01 | _Shurik_ | although there are still people on that res... I wonder where they come from |
| 20:04.16 | _Shurik_ | (non mobile I mean) |
| 20:04.20 | Xark | X-Fade: Yeah, its noticably slower than Opera, but much better functionality. I'm pretty happy with it for a first release. |
| 20:04.44 | _Shurik_ | Xarc: microb? |
| 20:04.54 | Xark | Shurik: Yeah. |
| 20:04.57 | X-Fade | Xark: Yep, few rendering bugs make my life a little harder. But hey, you can't have it all :) |
| 20:05.00 | _Shurik_ | interesting |
| 20:05.20 | _Shurik_ | minimo had a good potential |
| 20:05.24 | Xark | X-Fade: I am very happy to get access to Google apps (without minimo which I wasn't too happy with). |
| 20:05.38 | _Shurik_ | simply because I think mozilla renders html the way it was intended |
| 20:06.07 | Xark | Shurik: Doesn't microb use the same rendering engine? |
| 20:06.37 | _Shurik_ | I have no idea, I just heard about it few minutes ago :)) |

| 22:35.54 | edt | Luria thanks that works |
| 22:36.27 | edt | think this should be enabled by default when you install the 'non beta' engine... |
| 22:36.29 | timelE61i | Does garage offer a wiki? |
| 22:36.51 | timelE61i | edt: it was supposed to be |
| 22:37.06 | edt | not here |
| 22:37.21 | timelE61i | testers failed to use a proper virgin box |
| 22:37.31 | timelE61i | yes yes. Wrong supposed |
| 22:37.48 | edt | is there such thing as a virgin box? |
| 22:37.52 | edt | mine is not |
| 22:37.57 | timelE61i | i.e. We're not bad intentioned just poorly tested |
| 22:38.36 | timelE61i | i'll figure it out after i sleep |
| 22:38.55 | edt | time1E61i your webpage said it was a test and that you wanted feedback - hence this |
| 22:39.06 | edt | I am _very_ pleased to see this |
| 22:39.43 | edt | I will be even more glad when it manages to scroll smoothly without popping up the keyboard without reason |
| 22:40.07 | edt | it also buffers the scroll request so when you release the key it keeps on scrolling |
| 22:40.16 | edt | which is a _pita_ |
| 22:40.16 | timelE61i | slightly more interested in getting notes for 3.2007 up |
| 22:40.35 | edt | notes for 3.2007 ? |
| 22:40.43 | timelE61i | note that feedback should mostly be in bugzilla |
| 22:40.52 | edt | will do |
| 22:41.00 | timelE61i | otherwise i'll never get to sleep |
| 22:41.09 | edt | this is the fastest way to get help though |
| 22:41.16 | timelE61i | search first, read the first few bugs |
| 22:41.23 | edt | yes |

| 23:04.13 | edt | timeless I added to 1672 since I see the same behavior |
| 23:04.26 | edt | I also opened two others |
| 23:04.50 | edt | one is a real bug where dpad scrolling does not stop when you release the button |
| 23:05.01 | edt | the second it an enhancement request |
| 23:07.18 | timeless | edt: grumble |
| 23:07.31 | timeless | what part of "url is not optional" did you miss? |
| 23:07.40 | timeless | if you want to talk about random events, spam somewhere else |
| 23:07.54 | timeless | if the problem is that it happens on heavy pages |
| 23:07.57 | timeless | then provide a heavy page |
| 23:08.39 | timeless | the zoom stuff is a bit of a mess |
| 23:08.47 | timeless | it's a known mess |
| 23:09.15 | edt | timeless please be specific and I will gladly supply some examples that cause the problem? Are you talking about the scrolling issue? |
| 23:09.56 | timeless | yes |
| 23:10.17 | timeless | please fill in the url field |
| 23:14.05 | *** join/#maemo zwnj (n=behnam@212.2.21.2) |
| 23:14.07 | edt | will do - thats one reason I mentioned the new bug here... I posted a url btw it also triggers 1672 |
| 23:14.45 | timeless | edt: i get bugmail for all bugs in the component |
| 23:14.51 | timeless | and i notice them pretty much instantly |
| 23:15.16 | edt | timeless I suspect you will be a very busy person for the next couple of days... |
| 23:15.57 | edt | Its not a bad thing if it means the product get better fast |
| 23:16.06 | timeless | most of the bugs people will file already exist internally |
| 23:16.14 | timeless | and most aren't fixed because they're nontrivial |
| 23:16.28 | timeless | saving zoom state for instance |
| 23:16.35 | timeless | the state stuff is managed by gecko |
| 23:16.38 | edt | timeless why not get some of these posted externally? |
| 23:16.55 | edt | I would save some time on both sides |
| 23:17.00 | timeless | and has rules for storing which don't match the ones the ui eng wants |
| 23:17.08 | Veggen | mmf, any idea what codecs the sip on the n800 communication beta supports? |
| 23:17.18 | timeless | well, for one, most of the bugs in the internal bugzilla aren't much better than the external one will get |
| 23:17.19 | Veggen | Can't get it to talk to my cell phone (via Asterisk) |
| 23:17.28 | timeless | for another, i don't have people to do it |
| 23:17.44 | timeless | and most suckily, i have people who demand i maintain bugs in the internal bugzilla |
| 23:17.49 | edt | timeless ask for help on maemo.org |
| 23:17.57 | timeless | believe me, i'd love to kill off the internal bugzilla |

| 23:18.12 | timeless | but i can't, because of rules relating to non nokians |
| 23:18.31 | timeless | so, no one here has an n800 not running the latest software? |
| 23:19.43 | edt | what is the restriction an nda? you could probably get some of us to sign if we gain something (maybe just more access) from the transaction. |
| 23:20.08 | timeless | no |
| 23:20.25 | timeless | it's that the non employees aren't generally allowed to interact w/ the public |
| 23:20.26 | edt | for instance I would love to know why 4bit and 48m support was disabled on the 4.2007 kernel mmc support |
| 23:20.44 | timeless | general contracting rules say that contractees can't really disclose they exist |
| 23:20.49 | timeless | to whom they contract, or what they do |
| 23:21.10 | timeless | plus they'd have to know what they can't say |
| 23:21.24 | timeless | having watched us try to maintain a *small* gateway to another company |
| 23:21.30 | timeless | using only 2-3 people as gateways |
| 23:21.35 | edt | you need a new class of people to work with opensource nda(ed) volunteers |
| 23:21.40 | timeless | where those people *did* know what they weren't supposed to say |
| 23:21.59 | timeless | they still messed up on at least a couple of occassions :( |
| 23:22.55 | timeless | yeah, if i could get people like that, it'd be great... it's not actually impossible |
| 23:23.31 | edt | I know the kernel people have a setup for driver devs that works along these lines |
| 23:24.26 | edt | so you can get help with drivers with devs under an nda with the end result that a gpl driver appears in the kernel |

| 23:27.35 | Radar | mmm mozilla awesome |
| 23:27.43 | timeless | edt: sorry |
| 23:27.53 | timeless | i don't know anything about pilot, mplayer |

| 23:29.16 | disq | <- need help w/ pygtk |
| 23:29.31 | edt | timeless see http://www.mmplayer.com/ |
| 23:29.32 | disq | or generic gtk would also do i guess |
| 23:29.50 | edt | they have a media player on omap supporting lots of codecs |
| 23:30.19 | edt | If they could be encouraged to dev on an n800 we would all benefit |
| 23:30.29 | Radar | gonna try setting up tversity tonight |
| 23:32.05 | edt | timeless I have found gstreamer to be a temperamental app on normal linux... think that any stable app that supports lots of codecs would be a good thing even if it does not use gstreamer |
| 23:32.41 | unique311 | well my go at gmailfs is a no go |
| 23:33.33 | edt | as you well know its not hard to get the n800 to use different apps for specific mime types / file extensions (just two files in most cases from what I have seen) |
| 23:33.35 | timeless | gecko's getting ogg w/o gstreamer |
