| 01:04.23 | GeneralAntilles | <PROTECTED> |
| 01:04.43 | czr | timeless, "Copies SSH authorized keys from user to root" |
| 01:05.08 | killfill | timeless: not really. you mean to generate it, and copy it on the desktop mashine to try to login via that?.. |
| 01:05.44 | timeless | killfill: you can either generate it on your device or on your desktop |
| 01:05.46 | czr | timeless, you might also add that the copying is done when package is installed and the package does not provide any commands to do this after installation |
| 01:05.55 | czr | timeless, or provide a README file describing this |
| 01:06.20 | timeless | either way, for the package i've built, /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys needs to be on your system before you try to install my package |
| 01:06.25 | czr | timeless, or, an URL to some stable webpage giving usage instructions for stupid lusers like me |
| 01:06.45 | timeless | czr: which makes the most sense? |
| 01:07.06 | czr | well, you should test for the keys before mkdir /root/.ssh then ;-) |
| 01:07.13 | czr | and at least abort with an echo or something |

| 01:27.12 | timeless | no clue if it works w/ busybox :) |
| 01:27.23 | derf | But I will tell you the gist, because it's really simple: They do a whole bunch of complicated stuff with deep theoretical insight, and find out that just doing BWT+RLE with a fast adapting arithmetic encoder is better than anything involving move-to-front. |

| 01:28.31 | czr | derf, is the paper worth 25USD? |
| 01:28.33 | derf | And their clever algorithm which is supposed to optimally partition the output of the BWT into segments that can easily be compressed by an order-0 coder tells them that the optimal parition is... the whole string. |
| 01:28.42 | czr | heh |

| 01:43.12 | czr | timeless, do a date; ssh host date; comparison to the hosts through which the files and the packaging thing goes through. should be enought to determine where the culprit is |

| 01:44.50 | czr | swift is wrong, tinderbox is ok |
| 01:45.02 | alterego | zerojay, /usr/lib/libid3 ;) |
| 01:45.08 | czr | also swift-nexenta is wrong timeless |
| 01:45.10 | alterego | It's definitely there. |
| 01:45.15 | timeless | swift is fast by 37mins? |
| 01:45.22 | czr | yes |
| 01:45.24 | zerojay | alterego: Okay, because i didn't see it in the list of packages. Cool. |
| 01:45.29 | timeless | ok, um... |
| 01:45.45 | zerojay | Now you know why it's called swift. :) |
| 01:45.49 | czr | timeless, if you use sudo, open a sudo - su term while you jump the clock back :-) |
| 01:45.58 | czr | timeless, sudo is picky about the timestamps in the auth-files it creates |
| 01:46.07 | timeless | i don't use sudo |
| 01:46.11 | timeless | i use ssh :) |
| 01:46.18 | czr | that's ok :-) |
| 01:46.25 | czr | I meant for "gaining root access" |
| 01:47.07 | czr | there's one problem in the package btw. |
| 01:47.17 | czr | although I'm not quite sure how to effectively fix it |
| 01:47.32 | czr | timeless, suppose someone will install/remove/install/remove/install the package. what will happen? |
| 01:47.57 | alterego | :) |
| 01:48.01 | czr | alterego, I have my own windows to worry about :-) |
| 01:48.05 | alterego | Bed time for me. g'night folks. |
| 01:48.15 | zerojay | alterego: Any luck with packaging id3lib? |
| 01:48.17 | czr | night theme master |
| 01:48.27 | alterego | zerojay, I'll do it tomorrow after work. |
| 01:48.30 | timeless | czr: from my perspective, nothing interesting |
| 01:48.37 | timeless | in practice, your auth list will grow uselessly |
| 01:48.38 | zerojay | alterego: Awesome. Thanks. :) |
| 01:48.43 | alterego | No problem |
| 01:48.43 | timeless | i could use sort|uniq and friends |
| 01:48.49 | timeless | should i care? |
| 01:48.53 | czr | timeless, yeah. I wouldn't consider it a major bug |
| 01:49.02 | czr | someone else with inspiration migh fix it |
| 01:49.17 | czr | I thought about it for 5 seconds, didn't come up with a proper way to do it -> ignoring it |
| 01:49.30 | timeless | sort|uniq would work |
| 01:49.40 | timeless | but it requires *safely* dealing w/ temp files |
| 01:49.45 | czr | yup |
| 01:49.46 | timeless | which is non trivial at least |
| 01:50.07 | timeless | it can actually be done line at a time |
| 01:50.17 | timeless | cat $FILE|xargs -n1 maybe_add |
| 01:50.26 | timeless | where maybe_add greps || cat>>s |
| 01:50.42 | czr | you could create them under /dev/shm ;-) |
| 01:50.56 | czr | that way if device is reset while you're isntalling the package, the files will poof :-) |
| 01:51.06 | czr | although I don't know how /tmp/ is arranged on the device |
| 01:51.26 | timeless | anyway, for people reading in the future, this is how you would do it |
| 01:51.42 | timeless | cat/xargs/maybe_add;maybe_add: grep||cat>> |
| 01:51.58 | timeless | it's actually fairly easy, but i'm pretty sure that'd require an actual script |
| 01:53.40 | czr | actually a for loop using a newline IFS could do the trick |
| 01:53.51 | czr | for key in `cat keyfile`; do |
| 01:54.05 | czr | ah no |
| 01:54.14 | czr | one would need to escape the data going into grep.. hmm. |
| 01:54.28 | *** join/#maemo aloisiojr (n=aloisio@189.70.53.38) |

| 01:54.58 | czr | grep -q ^"${key}"$ dstdir/keyfile |
| 01:55.17 | czr | but here ${key} would have to be escaped for RE chars before hitting grep |
| 01:55.24 | timeless | \Q\E |
| 01:55.29 | timeless | if grep supports it |
| 01:55.45 | timeless | (quite possibly a perlism) |
| 01:56.00 | czr | ah. ^ and $ can be replaced with -x |
| 01:56.33 | czr | I don't think \Q\E works |
| 01:56.46 | czr | infact, a lot of the modifiers that we're used to don't exist in regular/egrep |
| 01:57.17 | czr | the package is good enough to have my stamp of approval now :-) |
| 01:57.21 | czr | although I haven't tested it |
| 01:57.32 | timeless | what's -w do? |
| 01:57.48 | timeless | <PROTECTED> |
| 01:57.48 | timeless | <PROTECTED> |
| 01:57.50 | czr | allows the search to be surrounded by whitespace (and whitespace only) |
| 01:58.10 | timeless | egrep -F |
| 01:58.11 | czr | ^\s* foo \s*$ basically |
| 01:58.15 | timeless | <PROTECTED> |
| 01:58.18 | timeless | -F would work |
| 01:58.33 | czr | ah. interesting. yes. maybe |
| 01:58.38 | timeless | something tells me we don't have xpg4/bin/grep :( |
| 01:58.44 | czr | there's fgrep |

| 02:00.27 | timeless | zerojay: it's not a new password |

| 02:01.29 | timeless | yeah, that too :) |

| 02:02.34 | czr | hmm. |
| 02:02.35 | timeless | did it say why? :) |
| 02:02.38 | zerojay | Retrying in red pill mode. |
| 02:02.40 | timeless | there's an error log in application amanger |
| 02:02.41 | czr | maybe I should take the package for a spin |
| 02:02.49 | czr | ah yes! |
| 02:02.52 | timeless | you have to ask for the error log |
| 02:02.54 | czr | check the am log first zerojay |
| 02:02.55 | timeless | it's in tools>log iirc |
| 02:03.08 | timeless | (or something similarly hard to find) |
| 02:03.08 | czr | zerojay, you don't have authorized_keys in /home/user. |
| 02:03.14 | czr | zerojay, that's why it will fail to install |
| 02:03.26 | czr | you need to get your key into /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys first |
| 02:03.30 | czr | THEN install the package |
| 02:03.38 | czr | shouldn't be any need for redpill-mode |
| 02:03.55 | zerojay | Ok.. so I have to create the key... |
| 02:04.02 | czr | you don't have an ssh key? |
| 02:04.17 | timeless | you can ssh-keygen on the device |
| 02:04.26 | timeless | i should probably generate one if ther eisn't one |
| 02:04.32 | czr | but then you'd have to transfer the key outside from the device, which is bleh |
| 02:04.34 | czr | yeah |
| 02:04.38 | czr | err, no |
| 02:04.40 | timeless | since the average case is a user who just wants to root their own localhost |

| 02:04.45 | czr | hmm. |
| 02:04.46 | timeless | why not? |
| 02:05.03 | czr | I'm thinking of the implications of leaving the key on a predefined location on a mobile device |
| 02:05.27 | czr | cause by stealing that key by a rogue application would allow _automatic_ access to that device as root |
| 02:05.29 | *** join/#maemo npt (n=npt@12-218-7-27.client.mchsi.com) |
| 02:05.36 | czr | and you don't really want to make that too easy |
| 02:05.51 | timeless | otoh... if that key exists |
| 02:05.54 | timeless | and is stealable |
| 02:05.57 | timeless | we have bigger problems |
| 02:05.59 | czr | also, you can't ask for passphrase during generation |
| 02:06.02 | timeless | because, e.g., i do that |
| 02:06.06 | czr | but it's a user decision then |
| 02:06.09 | zerojay | Screw it, I just enabled r&d mode. ;P |
| 02:06.14 | czr | it's not something your script will automatically do :-) |
| 02:06.15 | czr | zerojay, noo |
| 02:06.16 | timeless | zerojay: aww |
| 02:06.21 | czr | zerojay, we need someone to test the package :-) |
| 02:06.22 | timeless | please seriously, needs testing |
| 02:06.30 | zerojay | Alright, alright... |
| 02:06.40 | timeless | ssh-keygen -t rsa |
| 02:06.42 | zerojay | Just because I like the idea of Nokians begging. |

| 02:06.46 | timeless | enter enter |
| 02:07.07 | timeless | cat ~/.ssh/*.pub > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys |

| 02:07.51 | timeless | 1 |
| 02:08.07 | czr | fgrep -c :-) |
| 02:08.14 | czr | then remove the wc |
| 02:08.38 | zerojay | Takes a while to generate the keys. |

| 02:10.42 | czr | ok ok. I'll test |
| 02:10.50 | halley | Making an id.pub on a pocket device is useless; never let a heavy machine trust an easily-stealable machine. |
| 02:10.50 | _Monkey | i already had it that way, halley. |
| 02:11.12 | timeless | halley: the question is: is it ok to let a pocket device trust itself? |
| 02:11.16 | timeless | that's the primary task here |
| 02:11.20 | zerojay | k, keys generated, cat done. What now? |
| 02:11.23 | czr | timeless, works: foo () { \n echo foo \n } |
| 02:11.31 | halley | You ssh to root@localhost? |
| 02:11.33 | timeless | zerojay: now try installing the deb again |

| 02:12.12 | timeless | czr: much harder, have to find ip |
| 02:12.21 | czr | timeless, no it's not :-) |
| 02:12.22 | halley | czr, you can, though best practices locks off root@ entirely, and you sudo up from a user as required. |
| 02:12.24 | timeless | 127.1 is so convenient :) |
| 02:12.46 | czr | halley, yes, and linux is a variant of unix. |
| 02:13.16 | timeless | alley: best practices aren't found on this device :) |
| 02:13.32 | timeless | and out of the box, there's no password for user |

| 02:25.37 | timeless | of course, second install would complain |
| 02:25.49 | timeless | i'd have written this in perl :) |
| 02:27.08 | czr | I hate perl |
| 02:27.24 | czr | and don't get me wrong, I've written large programs in perl |
| 02:27.30 | czr | I hate it anyway :-) |
| 02:27.37 | czr | the package installs now |
| 02:27.57 | czr | the scenario that was tested was: /root/.ssh/authorized_keys existed already |
| 02:28.03 | czr | device is not in r&d mode |
| 02:30.43 | czr | hmm. I wonder how difficult it would be to make a proper gainroot |
| 02:30.53 | czr | without all the r&d silliness and without touching /usr/sbin/gainroot |
| 02:33.29 | czr | derf, the rleacs with fast adapt do have quite impressive gain. too bad they're almost twice as slow as bzip2 |
| 02:33.48 | czr | decompression speed is 3-4x slower too |

| 03:14.49 | czr | and doing DNS-based diversion |
| 03:15.06 | czr | so that one can use the automatic install scripts as they are, but all installation will be done from stuff that is available on localhost |
| 03:15.41 | czr | (which will carry the mirror of repo.meemoo) |
| 03:16.24 | czr | and the setup will support dhcp-operation on the host, and require zero changes inside sbox targets even if the machine is taken around in different networks, etc. |
| 03:18.51 | timelyx | can someone w/ an n800 handy check something for me? |

| 03:19.14 | czr | url? |
| 03:19.52 | timelyx | http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N800.php |
| 03:19.54 | timelyx | i suppose |
| 03:20.21 | timelyx | don't download anything, ideally once you give it an id it should tell you the versions and descriptions |
| 03:20.26 | timelyx | although iirc there's also a readme |
| 03:21.20 | czr | bleh |
| 03:21.27 | czr | that screen is really annoying on N800! |
| 03:21.36 | czr | 1) the input field is not really visible with microb |
| 03:21.46 | czr | 2) once you touch in it, it will popup the toolbar + vkb |
| 03:21.46 | timelyx | nice |
| 03:21.50 | czr | 3) they will cover that field |
| 03:21.58 | czr | then you scroll it back into visibilty |
| 03:22.02 | czr | and that triggers the VKB to hide |
| 03:22.05 | czr | wtf :-) |
| 03:22.22 | czr | but I assume that you don't actually need people to use the N800 to access that URL, right? :-) |
| 03:22.22 | timelyx | the vkb impl is fairly stupid :) |

| 03:34.59 | ekim|n770 | actually on the device |
| 03:35.09 | pupnik | fdisk i think, then mk*fs |
| 03:35.09 | pressbuttan2win | Oh, and one last question. Anyone have any experience with WEP+PEAP? |
| 03:35.13 | pressbuttan2win | Seems it's not supported out of the box |
| 03:35.26 | ekim|n770 | my fat32 partition is messed up |
| 03:35.29 | czr | pressbuttan2win, dig for maemo-devel archives and search using PEAP |
| 03:35.34 | sp3000 | not to be confused with mkf***s |
| 03:35.39 | pressbuttan2win | Alright, thanks |
| 03:35.42 | czr | pressbuttan2win, I don't think PEAP is supported. could be some legal issues with cisco and such |
| 03:35.59 | pressbuttan2win | Sucky :( |
| 03:36.04 | czr | pressbuttan2win, but I remember seeing some mails about it, check the archives first |
| 03:36.06 | pressbuttan2win | I think I saw that WPA with PEAP is available |
| 03:36.10 | czr | I might be talking up my ass. |
| 03:36.15 | ekim|n770 | ok....if you don't feel like telling me |
| 03:36.22 | ekim|n770 | geez |
| 03:36.44 | czr | ekim|n770, it's formatted using the same tools that one would use on regular linux desktops (on the command line that is) |
| 03:37.07 | czr | ekim|n770, fdisk to partition the card (if necessary), then mkfs to create the filesystems on each partition, depending on what kind of filesystem you want to create |
| 03:37.18 | czr | mkfs.vfat might be a good starting point for you |
| 03:37.48 | czr | you'll need to get fdisk & that program on the device first. seeing as you have "n" 770, you'll need to hunt for the tools in prepackaged format. |
| 03:37.52 | ekim|n770 | I already did all that |
| 03:37.54 | czr | or you could send an email to maemo-users |
| 03:38.00 | czr | and? |
| 03:38.27 | ekim|n770 | i want to format an existing partition |
| 03:38.32 | pupnik | good answer czr |
| 03:38.52 | pupnik | then mkfs on that part |
| 03:39.04 | czr | just make sure it's not mounted at that moment |
| 03:39.15 | czr | (use df -T and umount as root to get rid of it if it is) |
| 03:39.38 | ekim|n770 | how do I find out the mount point |
| 03:39.47 | czr | use df -T. |
| 03:39.50 | czr | it will list all mount points |
| 03:40.00 | czr | -T will add the filesystem type. it will be vfat for the memory card |
| 03:40.14 | czr | the right-most column is the mount point |
| 03:40.21 | czr | if df -T doesn't work, try just 'df' |
| 03:41.16 | ekim|n770 | /media/mmc1 |
| 03:41.29 | ekim|n770 | so umount /media/mmc1 |
| 03:41.49 | ekim|n770 | then how do I format it |
| 03:41.51 | czr | sounds amount right |
| 03:42.09 | czr | hmm. what was the device from which /media/mmc1 was mounted from? |
| 03:42.14 | czr | that's the left-most column of df |
| 03:42.19 | czr | if you still have that visible |
| 03:42.44 | czr | starts with /dev/ something. |
| 03:42.47 | ekim|n770 | /dev/mmcblk0p1 |
| 03:42.53 | czr | right. |
| 03:42.59 | czr | that's the first partition on the card |
| 03:43.06 | czr | probably the only partition on that card too :-) |
| 03:43.11 | czr | mkfs.vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 |
| 03:43.20 | czr | that will create a new vfat filesystem on that partition |
| 03:43.37 | czr | (which is sometimes called "formatting", esp in windows) |
| 03:45.42 | ekim|n770 | i know what all this stuff means |
| 03:46.05 | ekim|n770 | the card has two prtitions |
| 03:46.27 | ekim|n770 | each about 500 megs |
| 03:46.39 | ekim|n770 | one ext2 one fat32 |
| 03:47.13 | ekim|n770 | but somehow my fat partition got corrupted |
| 03:47.23 | czr | fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0 |
| 03:47.30 | czr | that will give you a list of partitions on the block device |
| 03:47.45 | czr | using the partition table on the device |
| 03:48.07 | czr | and that will probably help you decide which partition to mkfs then |
| 03:49.45 | ekim|n770 | i dn't have fdisk |
| 03:50.06 | ekim|n770 | and I cant get it |
| 03:50.28 | ekim|n770 | because it breaks tons of stuff |

| 04:09.46 | oil | ok. |
| 04:09.49 | |R | but didn't do any extensive testing, and yesterday it didn't work on OS2007, so i flashed 2007 again, didn't work... (video chat was dead too for some reasons, i though i had a conflict with something i had installed since) |
| 04:10.10 | |R | and so ... i figure why not try OS 2008 beta... video chat is back #1 with a friend but SIP is completely random :| |
| 04:11.13 | |R | oil : if it wasnt sending bye i guess that unregistering/registering would fix it ? |
| 04:11.15 | oil | well, if you had already yesterday problems with os2007. then I'd check more of the asterisk. |
| 04:11.30 | |R | but it doesn't seem to do anything to help and i see the un/register in asterisk -rvvvvv |
| 04:12.06 | oil | if the case is so that the n800 or the asterisk server stil thinks that there is an ongoing call and therefore does not allow new call. |
| 04:12.11 | |R | yeah, i ll look a bit more into it, just wondering if anyone had an idea as a have a pretty basic setup right now... just a sip account in a context that just dials another sip handset |
| 04:12.35 | oil | and there an timeout. so the problem should resolve itself in time.. for each call |
| 04:13.11 | |R | i'll try to see if i detect a timeout pattern... |
| 04:13.29 | |R | but then... restarting asterisk & the n800 apps would fix it too |
| 04:13.33 | |R | urhm :| |
| 04:13.36 | oil | check also if you are using stun. |
| 04:13.45 | |R | it's checked |
| 04:13.48 | |R | should i remove it? |
| 04:14.07 | oil | for testing yes. might be that the stun server does not answer and causes delays. |
| 04:15.00 | |R | how does STUN work? never looked into it (it's off, testing...) |
| 04:16.15 | |R | uhm |
| 04:16.27 | oil | basically the client (behind NAT) sends an packet to the stun server (which has to be on the public internet). STUN server resolves the public IP of the terminal from the tcp headers and returns the public IP back to the terminal |
| 04:17.29 | |R | oh ok, plain simple :) |
| 04:17.43 | oil | then the terminal can put this public ip to the sip headers.. so that the calls from the public internet can be reached by the terminal behind the nat |
| 04:18.17 | oil | yes. it's pretty simple :) |
| 04:18.53 | |R | ok, i shutdowned the n800, restarted asterisk... restarted the n800... |

| 07:24.49 | GeneralAntilles | It'd be a bit more involved than a shell script |
| 07:24.55 | GeneralAntilles | but certainly will work |
| 07:25.14 | GeneralAntilles | You could probably do it in Python or Ruby |
| 07:25.25 | truent | well the script i was gonna do was in ruby |
| 07:25.36 | truent | lemme look up dbus |
| 07:25.43 | GeneralAntilles | alterego would be the guy to talk to |
| 07:25.46 | truent | is it specific to n800 or just a linux lib? |
| 07:25.57 | GeneralAntilles | This would be specific to the N800. |
| 07:26.01 | GeneralAntilles | Well, ITOS in general |
| 07:26.12 | GeneralAntilles | http://maemo.rubyx.co.uk/ruby-maemo/ |
| 07:26.43 | GeneralAntilles | Well, dbus is a Linux thing |
| 07:26.55 | truent | yeah thats what i meant |
| 07:26.59 | GeneralAntilles | but what you're trying to do will probably be more maemo specific. |
| 07:27.02 | truent | i have ruby installed |
| 07:27.07 | truent | for metasploit |
| 07:27.25 | GeneralAntilles | The generic dbus documentation should probably get you started. |
| 07:27.34 | truent | okie doke |
| 07:28.21 | truent | just sucks cuz everything else can be done with system calls or shell scripting |
| 07:28.22 | truent | ;p |
| 07:31.53 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah, seems like what you're trying to do should work. |
| 07:31.58 | GeneralAntilles | But, dunno. |

| 11:01.58 | timelyx | i'm not at work yet (obviously) |
| 11:02.10 | timelyx | the platform at least in some locales seems to *never* use "click" |

| 11:02.18 | *** join/#maemo Sho_ (i=ehs1@kde/hein) |
| 11:02.22 | timelyx | much to the annoyance of all localizers with whom i've spoken |
| 11:02.40 | czr | it would be preferred to use click vs press. however, I think that'd be up to other people who have worked on l10n in moz |
| 11:02.41 | timelyx | this seems to be some sort of nokiaism |
| 11:02.49 | czr | ah |
| 11:02.59 | timelyx | the moz people all suggested click |
| 11:03.05 | czr | but I think you can ignore that for an open source project |
| 11:03.15 | czr | or this localization was for a nokia project? |
| 11:03.17 | timelyx | but !click won because this is essentially nokia stuff |
| 11:03.23 | timelyx | it's for microb |
| 11:03.28 | timelyx | which is only used by maemo/osso |
| 11:03.29 | czr | uhh. ok |
| 11:03.34 | X-Fade_ | Hmm very N810 alike: http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/28/compal-expects-big-things-from-mids-in-2008-dedicates-team/ |

| 11:03.47 | timelyx | including buttons that don't say "OK" or "Cancel" |
| 11:03.53 | timelyx | they say "Stop script" and "Continue" |
| 11:04.05 | czr | makes sense |
| 11:04.27 | czr | timelyx, any idea whether the original fi was localized within N or without? |
| 11:04.45 | timelyx | 99.9% certain it was by/for N |
| 11:04.49 | timelyx | technically N doesn't localize |
| 11:05.00 | czr | hah. funny email |
| 11:05.03 | timelyx | if you ignore the first "new" localization for those strings |
| 11:05.13 | timelyx | i collected 15/16 localizations by talking to Nokians |

| 11:12.23 | inz | Jaffa, I tried to fix it in my version of osso-xterm, but couldn't find a way to get that info out of ncurses/vte |
| 11:13.05 | Jaffa | inz: Yeah, I thought it might be tricky. |
| 11:13.20 | Jaffa | timelyx: *mis*feature ;-) |
| 11:14.49 | inz | Jaffa, I think character echoing is handled elsewhere |
| 11:15.11 | inz | Jaffa, and thus the terminal doesn't have a clue |
| 11:15.31 | *** join/#maemo koen (n=koen@s55917625.adsl.wanadoo.nl) |
| 11:17.27 | inz | Jaffa, it seems they've fixed the easy way |
| 11:17.36 | inz | Jaffa, i.e. specified _all_ input as "secret" |
| 11:17.43 | timelyx | ?! |
| 11:18.48 | inz | hmm, the thumb kb doesn't show asterisks |
| 11:18.58 | timelyx | the thumb keyboard would learn too |
| 11:19.07 | timelyx | so... um... |
| 11:19.07 | inz | but I don't get any "suggestions" when using the vkb to type stuff |
| 11:19.10 | timelyx | RESOLVED STUPID |
| 11:20.45 | Jaffa | That's just dumb. |
| 11:20.52 | GeneralAntilles | I wish somebody would just go through and whip the vkb behaviors into shape. |
| 11:20.57 | timelyx | Jaffa: no, that's N |
| 11:21.05 | timelyx | someone reports a bug, you're expect to "resolve" it |
| 11:21.18 | timelyx | e.g., i reported a bug that changing sides in chess could lead to a crash |
| 11:21.28 | timelyx | they removed the ability to switch sides while the game is running |
| 11:21.32 | timelyx | look ma, no crash |

| 12:26.48 | zerojay | lol |
| 12:27.15 | lardman | hmm, I can't get a term any more. I get "stdin: is not a tty" over ssh, and the built-in term fails too |

| 12:28.30 | lardman | czr: I'd forgotten to error check opening the dsp task, which fails more often than not |
| 12:28.31 | alterego | unique311, display configuration file? |
| 12:28.43 | czr | lardman, ah. "oops" :-) |
| 12:28.44 | unique311 | like a xorg.conf |
| 12:28.56 | czr | "no one will ever need to check the result of this malloc/open/write/read" :-) |
| 12:29.07 | lardman | czr: problem with using someone else's code, as mine always has a check, etc. |
| 12:29.12 | czr | although checking for malloc errors is quite futile in most cases |
| 12:29.44 | lardman | right, reboot has solved the tty issue |
| 12:30.05 | alterego | unique311, I don't believe there is one. |
| 12:30.55 | unique311 | So how is the display configured? |
| 12:31.11 | czr | timelyx, someone else complained about the docs opening in separate windows too :-) |

| 12:32.38 | czr | lardman, is the .o task going to the dsp? |
| 12:32.54 | czr | also, is it something you've cooked up, or just using something that already exists? |
| 12:33.02 | czr | (i.e., source or closed?) |
| 12:33.07 | alterego | unique311, there's a special omap X server. Who knows :P |
| 12:33.27 | czr | alterego, if it's kdrive based, then the config is for build-time only. normally kdrives don't have runtime conf files. |
| 12:33.32 | alterego | unique311, check out 'Xomap --help' |
| 12:33.42 | lardman | czr: yes .o to dsp, something I was sent and am modifying to get it to work, open source |
| 12:33.47 | unique311 | thanks. |
| 12:33.53 | czr | lardman, cool. |
| 12:34.00 | alterego | Cool, I can make my display monochrome. |
| 12:34.02 | czr | lardman, what do you use to build it? |

| 12:34.26 | czr | alterego, if you step on it, you can go a step further and make it unchrome :-) |
| 12:34.33 | alterego | Hah |
| 12:34.38 | vikramb11 | czr: thanks ! any one place to get all connectivity related source tar ball ! |
| 12:34.39 | czr | or nonochrome |
| 12:34.40 | alterego | Spakman_, yes, that is a known bug. |
| 12:34.57 | alterego | Spakman_, you'll need to take the battery out and turn the device on again. |
| 12:34.58 | czr | vikramb11, start by reading the 4.0 sdk how-tos on connectivity first |
| 12:35.06 | Spakman_ | ta alterego, I won't bother filing it |
| 12:35.16 | lardman | czr: Ti Linux toolchain |
| 12:35.19 | czr | vikramb11, on maemo.org -> documentation -> maemo 4.0 -> howtos -> and so on. there's a long list of docs there. |
| 12:35.26 | Spakman_ | alterego: BTW, spotted your .install file for Ruby, nice one! |
| 12:35.26 | czr | lardman, ah. thought so. |
| 12:35.37 | alterego | Spakman_, thanks :) |
| 12:35.39 | czr | lardman, is it any good? |
| 12:35.45 | vikramb11 | czr yea i saw and checked 2.x 3.x and 4.x |
| 12:36.04 | pupnik | hrmph, still Nov 28 over here |
| 12:36.17 | vikramb11 | czr there is a arch diagram on 2.x for connectivity ..but missing in later versions... is that still hold good ? |
| 12:36.38 | czr | vikramb11, I have no idea. most of the 4.0 stuff that I've looked through is not really 4.0 pure either :-) |

| 14:22.59 | lardman | any particular checksum? |
| 14:23.07 | Mikho | almost any would do |
| 14:23.15 | lardman | you may as well write your own, they are quite small |
| 14:23.44 | lardman | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check would be a start to look for a piece of code |
| 14:24.40 | czr | Mikho, for what purpose btw? |
| 14:24.44 | lardman | by write your own I meant write a function/use a function, rather than look for a library. I wasn't suggesting making up your own one :) |
| 14:24.46 | czr | maybe I can recommend something |
| 14:25.59 | Mikho | for checking if arbitrarily long byte streams are likely to be equal |
| 14:26.24 | Mikho | not for error detection |
| 14:26.37 | czr | hmm. what kind of byte streams? |
| 14:26.54 | czr | i.e., you know anything about their content before hand? text /binary? |
| 14:27.17 | fysa | anyone here testing modest? |
| 14:27.18 | czr | what you're looking for is a hashing algorithm really (non-cryptographic probably) |

| 14:27.42 | czr | Mikho, look into "fast hashing functions" in wikipedia. there's a lot of them |
| 14:28.00 | fysa | yes, that's really the only way. |
| 14:28.04 | Mikho | ok, I'll look into that. Thanks |
| 14:28.22 | czr | Mikho, what is the purpose of testing for this likelyness btw? |

| 14:31.19 | alterego | lardman, I'm more scared of it being scratched by the stylus. The current screen protector is, well, f*cked :) |
| 14:31.23 | Mikho | like, one might get the same data from more than one sources, and the program should detect if one is modified |
| 14:31.56 | fysa | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Md5sum |
| 14:32.18 | fysa | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cksum |
| 14:32.30 | Mikho | hmm |
| 14:32.37 | lardman | alterego: you mean the thing that came on it? |
| 14:33.00 | fysa | The cksum command can be used to compare a suspect file copied or communicated over noisy transmission lines against an exact copy of a trusted file. |
| 14:33.09 | alterego | lardman, yeah. It's starting to peel on one edge a bit too much and there's a bubble too .. |
| 14:33.22 | lardman | alterego: I've never used one on any of my devices, if I feel the stylus scratching I stop and wipe it. I don't have any issues seeing the screen through my scratch marks ;) |
| 14:33.44 | fysa | it doesn't matter which hashing mechanism you use. |
| 14:33.50 | alterego | lardman, I don't either. I just want it to stay in good nik ;) |
| 14:33.57 | Mikho | ok, I think I'll manage with these |
| 14:34.27 | fysa | you are essentially representing an arbitrarily long string of data with 16, 32, 64 or 256 characters. |
| 14:34.30 | alterego | Mikho, when you say stream are you using TCP/IP ? |
| 14:34.46 | alterego | Because TCP/IP has checksums embedded into it for that exact reason .. |
| 14:34.54 | fysa | any change to that string of data will result in the representation being altered. |

| 14:36.22 | alterego | Hmm. Maybe look into how bittorrent does it them. |
| 14:36.36 | fysa | bittorrent uses SHA |
| 14:36.45 | alterego | They have hashes (SHA?) for complete file and also for blocks. |
| 14:36.51 | Mikho | it's not about transmission errors but differences in data made by users |
| 14:37.05 | fysa | which is about twice as slow as MDA, which itself is about twice as slow as XOR64 |
| 14:37.08 | Mikho | timestamp is really not good enough |
| 14:37.14 | fysa | sorry, md5 |
| 14:37.16 | alterego | Well, are you trying to find the differences or just want to know if there are differences. |
| 14:37.58 | Mikho | just to know if there are differences |
| 14:38.03 | fysa | unless you have some rsync/diff-type functions on both sides, you won't be able to easily extraopolate what those differences are. |
| 14:38.26 | alterego | Mikho, then send a hash with each block of data. |
| 14:38.26 | fysa | and no, timestamp is never good enough for such a thing. |
| 14:39.01 | Mikho | that's what I'm planning to do :) |
| 14:39.11 | lardman | I guess it depends on how sure you want to be that the records are the same, is the probability of different data producing same hash inversely proportional to the time taken to calculate the hash? |
| 14:39.27 | czr | Mikho, what kind of protections are you planning against? |
| 14:39.41 | czr | or "modifications" |
| 14:39.56 | fysa | right. the complexity of your hash algorithm is a trade-off between speed and accuracy into oblivion. |
| 14:39.57 | Mikho | one server has one data and another might have some other data about the same subject |
| 14:40.15 | czr | if the data of same size on both? |
| 14:40.15 | fysa | why not just use rsync? |
| 14:40.34 | alterego | svn ftw! |
| 14:40.38 | czr | also, does data change completely when it changes, or partially? and do you care? (ie, how large is each data) |
| 14:41.02 | Mikho | if the data is the same, fine, but if it's the same, the program should have some way of telling the user it has several versions of the data |
| 14:41.36 | czr | use sha1 |
| 14:41.38 | timeless | help |
| 14:41.43 | timeless | anyone here familiar w/ videoForLinux? |

| 14:42.09 | lardman | Mikho: why would the data be the same? |
| 14:42.18 | alterego | timeless, partially. V4L is it's acronym ;) |
| 14:42.29 | czr | Mikho, for each data, store (size-of-data, md5-of-data-content, version-id/timestamp-when-added, data) |
| 14:42.30 | alterego | timeless, I've read the kernel text on the subject too. |
| 14:42.43 | czr | in order to compare data entries, you start with size and md5 |
| 14:42.44 | timeless | maemo uses it, right? |
| 14:42.53 | Mikho | It'd be nice if there was a ready-made lib I could use |

| 14:44.00 | Mikho | :) |
| 14:44.02 | alterego | timeless, maemo uses it for the Radio in the N800 and for video in the N8X0's |
| 14:44.54 | lardman | czr, Mikho: why not simply add a changed-since-last-sync flag, forget the md5sum for each record, then just check (e.g. md5sum) those that are flagged when the sync occurs? |
| 14:45.15 | Mikho | because timestamps are unreliable |
| 14:45.25 | czr | lardman, I'm just throwing ideas, the specification is not complete enough for me to give sane suggestions :-) |
| 14:45.33 | lardman | not a time stamp, a I-have-changed flag |
| 14:45.33 | alterego | Depends on the time stamp and who controls that data. |
| 14:45.56 | lardman | well yes, but if the timestamp is inaccurate, the md5sum won't tell you which data to use |
| 14:46.01 | lardman | still won't |
| 14:46.05 | czr | lardman, also, if you have a multiple-master situation, then that becomes kind of difficult in conflicts :-) |
| 14:46.16 | lardman | czr: yes, that is true |
| 14:46.18 | czr | lardman, did you see my original suggestion? one with 4 elements |
| 14:46.33 | czr | (size-of-data, md5-of-content, version-id, data) |
| 14:46.38 | alterego | timeless, are you looking at webcam support in Flash? |
| 14:46.54 | mouta | Hi, I've followed the maemo_4-0_tutorial. Everything seems to work except some warnings and missing files. How can I make it happy ? (Plugin desktop file not found, keybindings.rc, ui-window-*.wav) |
| 14:47.02 | lardman | czr: yes, I was just thinking of removing the md5sum overhead from each record, move that to the syncing event, but depends on how many records are added vs sync'd I suppose |
| 14:47.11 | alterego | mouta, those are normal. Just ignore them ;) |
| 14:47.25 | czr | lardman, you'd only need to do md5 if sizes are the same and version-id is not. |
| 14:47.30 | mouta | alterego, fine, thanks |
| 14:47.34 | alterego | mouta if it helps. Close your eyes before starting the desktop and when running a program ;) |
| 14:47.35 | czr | lardman, so the odds of that being required is quite small if done correctly |
| 14:47.59 | lardman | czr: ah okay, so version-id is like my "I've changed" flag |
| 14:48.05 | czr | smt like that yes |
| 14:48.06 | mouta | alterego, I'll put my head in the fridge |
| 14:48.12 | alterego | :) |
| 14:48.21 | alterego | czr, revision number maybe? |
| 14:48.36 | czr | I still don't understand the problem mikho is trying to solve, so I'll just leave it as "(semi)unique way of telling that this version of 'thing' is not the same as some other version of this same 'thing') |
| 14:48.44 | czr | depends on the scenario |
| 14:48.50 | lardman | :) |
| 14:48.51 | czr | for single-master a number is sufficient |
| 14:48.53 | alterego | I don't know the nature of how he expects this data to change. Whether it's iteration or just random (error tainted?) |
| 14:49.11 | czr | for multi-master not since the same data can change in two different locations at the same time |
| 14:49.37 | czr | but solving those problems is much more interesting than single-master scenarios :-) |
| 14:49.44 | alterego | Heh |
| 14:50.11 | alterego | You could also have a tainted flag on the data when it's coming in so you know you _should_ check for data corruption/changes. |
| 14:50.11 | Mikho | Isn't it pretty simple actually? There's data, it's supposed to be the same, but it might not. Checksums can be calculated server-side and sent along with the data. The application then checks the two checksums and if they differ, it presents both sets of the data to the user |
| 14:51.02 | alterego | Mikho, sure. It can be that simple. When you say "presents both sets of the data to the user" do you mean display it? Or just say these things differ? |
| 14:51.18 | alterego | And then, are you displaying changes or the whole file? Is the data binary or text? |
| 14:51.23 | Mikho | that's not in this problem area |
| 14:51.41 | Mikho | for now I'd just like to detect |
| 14:52.33 | alterego | Well, if it's a stream. Then just generate an MD5 for each chunk. Ask the server for the MD5 for that chunk. It replies. Compare the checksums and you're done. |
| 14:53.37 | Mikho | yep. Already found the solution. I'll probably use md5 or sha1. But I haven't found a readymade lib yet |
| 14:53.40 | alterego | You also have the option of recording status and re-requesting the specific chunk that does not match. |
| 14:54.00 | alterego | Mikho, what language are you using? |
| 14:54.02 | lardman | is there a link into the OMAP accelerators anywhere? |
| 14:54.05 | Mikho | C/C++ |
| 14:54.11 | alterego | Mikho, it's all in OpenSSL I believe. |

| 14:55.28 | _Monkey | hmmm... hash accel is not used imho |
| 14:56.03 | czr | alterego, there's support for some crypto & hash algos on omap |
| 14:56.14 | alterego | czr, ah. That's what I thought you meant. Neat. |
| 14:56.22 | czr | but it's not used |
| 14:56.31 | alterego | czr, is that not utilised in the kernel? |
| 14:56.33 | czr | at least it wasn't when I last checked (1.0/770) |
| 14:56.37 | czr | no |
| 14:56.48 | czr | kernel doesn't expose hash/crypto to userspace anyway |
| 14:56.51 | alterego | Hmm .. I thought the kernel had support for MD5, SHA1 ... |
| 14:56.59 | czr | so libcrypto couldn't use it even if kernel supported |
| 14:57.06 | czr | in software yes. and for VIA padlock |
| 14:57.17 | alterego | Maybe write an OMAP module then .. |
| 14:57.36 | czr | I think the issue was in the way that dma was mapped on the omap |
| 14:57.45 | alterego | Hm |
| 14:57.50 | czr | on via padlock it was easy as it was an instruction set extension |
| 14:57.52 | czr | on omap not |

| 15:37.59 | rocco | I don't know a lot about usb to be honest? |
| 15:38.04 | rocco | is it cos it'd be unpowered? |
| 15:38.35 | lophyte | rocco, there's a usb networking howto on the maemo wiki |
| 15:38.40 | rocco | i know |
| 15:38.56 | rocco | what I'm saying is, how is usb networking different to a usb keyboard? |
| 15:39.04 | Tak | heh, I think most things for chinook are pretty beta right now |
| 15:39.14 | lophyte | because usb networking doesn't require the device to be in host mode |
| 15:39.23 | lophyte | it works like a USB networking peripheral |
| 15:39.27 | rocco | is that a hardware thing? |
| 15:39.48 | lophyte | you have to install a custom kernel to enable usb host mode |
| 15:39.56 | rocco | cool |
| 15:40.01 | rocco | I was going to have a go with that |

| 15:47.35 | rocco | I didn't know how to |
| 15:47.42 | rocco | so I havn't ever done it |
| 15:47.45 | rocco | I know it's possible |
| 15:48.04 | alterego | Yeah, the instructions aren't really for the non technical minded. |
| 15:48.11 | alterego | Well, Linux novices I mean ;) |
| 15:48.17 | rocco | OI! |
| 15:48.21 | alterego | :) |
| 15:48.27 | rocco | i meant I havn't had a need to do it |
| 15:48.29 | rocco | (yet) |
| 15:49.07 | alterego | Well, during the dual boot process. You copy your current root filesystem to a partition on the SD card. That's probably the best backup to have ;) |
| 15:49.39 | rocco | so i need one card to dual boot onto |
| 15:49.48 | rocco | then the other to transfer everything onto |
| 15:50.04 | alterego | Yeah, I use a 2G card 1G for storage/swap and the other 1G for OS |
| 15:50.10 | rocco | ok |
| 15:50.11 | alterego | That's the internal card. |
| 15:50.20 | rocco | maybe I'll try dual booting tonight |
| 15:50.33 | rocco | tbph i don't have much on there |
| 15:50.36 | alterego | My external card is whatever happens to be in there. Generally a 4G with music or various SD cards that I use with my digital camera |
| 15:50.42 | rocco | maybe I'll just backup settings and migrate |
| 15:50.57 | rocco | is enabling root easy on os2008? |

| 15:54.28 | alterego | Heh |
| 15:54.37 | rocco | oh just outta interest......bluetoothkeyboard vs usb keyboard....wrt power |
| 15:55.05 | alterego | BT keyboard has seperate batteries obviously. Probably last longer. It'll also make your device last longer. |
| 15:55.22 | rocco | ko |
| 15:55.24 | alterego | If you're plugged in most of the time. Then USB keyboards are dirt cheap. |
| 15:55.37 | rocco | so usb keyboard will drain more |
| 15:55.39 | rocco | yeh i guess so |

| 19:04.22 | timeless | ubikolat: install sysklogd |
| 19:04.41 | timeless | you should also check /proc/boot_reason (?) |
| 19:04.58 | timeless | /proc/bootreason |

| 19:05.14 | timeless | mine's sw_rst (there's a wiki somewhere) |
| 19:05.32 | timeless | guerby: that really wouldn't pay for my dinner |
| 19:05.34 | lardman | software reset |
| 19:05.51 | timeless | lardman: mine isn't interesting, what's interesting is ubi's :) |
| 19:06.22 | timeless | fysa: note: dragging (panning) is a disaster |
| 19:06.25 | timeless | it needs to be removed and redesigned |
| 19:06.29 | fysa | sorry, was hunting down this Modest presentation |
| 19:06.31 | lardman | come on ubikolat, tell us what it says :) |
| 19:06.35 | fysa | but it has old small scrollbars |
| 19:06.38 | timeless | you need to play w/ more google web apps |
| 19:06.45 | timeless | fysa: the modest dev is a neighbor |
| 19:06.49 | timeless | i can easily see how it looks |
| 19:06.52 | fysa | OK cool |
| 19:06.54 | timeless | load my page instead :) |
| 19:07.01 | timeless | we're not that ignorant |
| 19:07.03 | ubikolat | timeless: bootreason says 32wd_to |
| 19:07.04 | timeless | ok, maybe we are... |
| 19:07.12 | timeless | ubi: that's much more interesting :) |
| 19:07.22 | ubikolat | ubikolat: what does it mean? |
| 19:07.43 | fysa | you want me to load that big string into the location: field? or stick it into an HTML and view it? |
| 19:07.46 | timeless | http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/maemo/developers/30750 |
| 19:07.50 | ubikolat | I just installed sysklogd let me try to reproduce the problem |
| 19:08.01 | fysa | oh, I see. data:text/html |
| 19:08.17 | lardman | watchdog iirc |
| 19:08.26 | timeless | lardman: yes... |
| 19:09.00 | fysa | I can see how fat scrollbars wouldn't necessarily be good there. |
| 19:09.07 | timeless | ubi: anyway, that page seems to have a fairly reasonable starting outline |
| 19:09.24 | timeless | fysa: you realize that each set of scrollbars eats space, right? |
| 19:09.25 | ubikolat | timeless: yeah thanks |
| 19:09.29 | timeless | at some point, you run out of space |
| 19:09.33 | timeless | and just have scrollbars |
| 19:10.20 | *** join/#maemo halley (n=halley@ip72-209-15-92.ri.ri.cox.net) |
| 19:10.28 | fysa | right now we have a situation where because the scrollbar is so small, it's artificially forced away from the right edge of the screen leaving a gap, right? |
| 19:10.31 | cbx33 | damn managed to get 1.23 Mb before it died then |
| 19:10.37 | timeless | basically, while scrollbars are nifty things, ever present scrollbars are probably the wrong solution for our device |
| 19:10.50 | timeless | fysa: no |
| 19:11.05 | halley | Scrollbars suck; just drag an "inert" part of the content. |
| 19:11.06 | timeless | we have a situation where an idiotic theming requirement is forcing bad design |
| 19:11.12 | fysa | I have a ~8 pixel gap on the right of the scrollbar |
| 19:11.12 | fysa | ah |
| 19:11.17 | timeless | halley: what if there is no inert content? |
| 19:11.23 | *** part/#maemo rghosh (n=rghosh@CPE00b0d0da5bb7-CM0012257043ee.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) |
| 19:12.03 | timeless | fysa: anyway, i'm in a pickle |
| 19:12.09 | timeless | i'm trying to redesign the ui (now) |
| 19:12.17 | fysa | you know, even the in-page scrollbars could stay the same. it's just the scrollbar on the right that is a problem for me -- my thumb scrapes against the plastic of the case when I scroll up/down |
| 19:12.21 | timeless | but i have these stupid documents that are "confidential" |
| 19:12.45 | timeless | fysa: actually, that's the other stupid thing |
| 19:12.50 | timeless | because the screen is inset |
| 19:13.00 | timeless | there are arguments against the normal behavior of screen edges |
| 19:13.03 | fysa | the iPhone/iPod Touch really had it right when they put the screen flush behind glass. |
| 19:13.22 | timeless | yes, apple has better engineers |
| 19:13.27 | timeless | tell me something i can actually fix |
| 19:13.31 | halley | fysa, I agree about flush mount in general; makes it easier to clean. |
| 19:13.32 | fysa | :) |
| 19:13.57 | lardman | ubikolat: have you looked at the output of /var/lib/dsme/stats/lifeguard_resets |
| 19:14.15 | halley | I want to make pygtkeditor tabbed so I can have multiple files at once. |
| 19:14.25 | timeless | tabs are bad |
| 19:14.26 | timeless | don't do it |
| 19:14.31 | alterego | It'd be a _proper_ tablet then. |
| 19:14.44 | halley | One TXT file open at a time is worse for me. |
| 19:14.52 | timeless | halley: just have multiple windows |
| 19:14.58 | alterego | :P |
| 19:15.15 | timeless | the window manager should manage the windows for you |
| 19:15.16 | halley | Er, then finding them with the left-hand icons? |
| 19:15.19 | timeless | if it's broken, make someone fix it |
| 19:15.42 | fysa | if the right scroll bar was widened so the left edge meets the dotted line between the [V] minimize and [X] close, I think that would be 'good enough' |
| 19:15.45 | timeless | halley: i think there's an unsupported setting that'd let you put the tn on another edge if you're so inclined :) |
| 19:16.04 | timeless | fysa: i will try to make sure my list of grievances includes that one |
| 19:16.10 | fysa | sorry :) |
| 19:16.16 | timeless | not your fault |
| 19:16.24 | timeless | perfectly rational grievance |
| 19:16.30 | ubikolat | lardman yeah I did |
| 19:16.32 | fysa | how about instead of kinetic scrolling, some way to amplify dragging?. |
| 19:16.38 | fysa | that would make it much more useful. |
| 19:16.41 | ubikolat | lardman but apparently that file doesn't indicate what caused the restart |
| 19:16.44 | timeless | fysa: no :) |
| 19:16.51 | fysa | i.e., I move my finger 10 pixels, I want the page to move 50 pixels |
| 19:17.00 | timeless | fysa: have you looked at minimap? |
| 19:17.02 | lardman | ubikolat: yeah, just re-read that thread |
| 19:17.16 | timeless | fysa: put another way |
| 19:17.18 | ubikolat | I did, just installed ksyslogd |
| 19:17.20 | timeless | imagine you're looking at... |
| 19:17.35 | fysa | have not, but will check it out |
| 19:17.54 | fysa | minimap as default OS2008 'Map'? |
| 19:17.59 | timeless | http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=33.120305,-111.738188&spn=0.001642,0.002832&z=19&om=1 |
| 19:18.15 | timeless | fysa: minimap is nokia's s60 browser solution to a certain problem |
| 19:18.17 | timeless | ignore it for now |
| 19:18.21 | timeless | start w/ the url i pasted |
| 19:18.35 | timeless | without searching, how would you get to "20210"? |
| 19:18.50 | lardman | ubikolat: dunno about the email, but mine indicates 5* restarts by dsp_dld, and as I have been DSP hacking this is why it's been reset |
| 19:19.22 | timeless | fysa: if you prefer 90210, that's fine too |
| 19:19.23 | fysa | sounds like a trick question ;) |
| 19:19.26 | timeless | just describe the steps you take |
| 19:19.37 | fysa | unzoom, drag, zoom in? |
| 19:19.38 | timeless | no tricks |
| 19:19.42 | timeless | good |
| 19:19.54 | timeless | you sure you don't want to drag until you reach that? |
| 19:20.01 | timeless | you don't have to unzoom, right? |
| 19:20.09 | timeless | i mean, if you drag long enough |
| 19:20.15 | fysa | my wrist would be very tired ;) |
| 19:20.19 | timeless | and pay for enough acceleration, you might eventually find your destination |
| 19:20.21 | timeless | really? |
| 19:20.23 | timeless | i'm shocked |
| 19:20.25 | timeless | ok. good. |
| 19:20.26 | ubikolat | lardman yeah mine just has 1 on each, so it's not an application being reset a lot of times, or so I'm guessing |
| 19:20.30 | timeless | baseline established |
| 19:20.56 | timeless | next question. what pages do you visit, and precisely how do you try to change their view |
| 19:21.11 | timeless | are you trying to go down "1 screen", "to the end", "to a random point", ... |
| 19:21.19 | timeless | are you "trying to read the text" |
| 19:21.32 | timeless | fysa: basically, instead of saying "foo would be cool" |
| 19:21.35 | K`zan | Anyone know if the FMRadio applet from 2007 will work in 2008 (n800)? |
| 19:21.40 | timeless | i need you (and the nokians writing stupid requirements) |
| 19:21.44 | |R | any reason why DisableHFP=True in /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf ? |
| 19:21.54 | timeless | k`zan: typically you need to rebuild apps for different os releases |
| 19:21.55 | fysa | right |
| 19:22.07 | timeless | to actually explain what problem you're trying to solve |
| 19:22.12 | timeless | what's the real world use case |
| 19:22.16 | timeless | not, what might be cool |
| 19:22.21 | K`zan | timeless, I know but I was hoping :). |
| 19:22.24 | K`zan | Thanks. |
| 19:22.29 | timeless | the question isn't is "x" cool, it's *why* is X useful |
| 19:22.34 | timeless | what problem does X solve |
| 19:22.52 | timeless | and are the conditions leading to the problems that X solves |
| 19:22.59 | timeless | sp3000: would reading the changelog answer that? :) |
| 19:23.16 | lardman | pupnik: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJGR_xRnzik this one is opengl on the omap |
| 19:23.22 | fysa | is it possible to zoom out less than 80%? |
| 19:23.25 | timeless | X solves ... equivalent to the conditions on our device |
| 19:23.35 | timeless | fysa: w/ the ui we have officially? no |
| 19:23.36 | sp3000 | timeless: eek |
| 19:23.37 | pupnik | ah ty |
| 19:23.54 | timeless | i have one browser that lets me zoom to 10%..200% w/ 10% steps |
| 19:24.09 | *** join/#maemo lopz (n=gentoo-d@unaffiliated/lopz) |
| 19:24.12 | timeless | and that's the browser i happen to like the best for ui choices |
| 19:24.24 | timeless | fysa: there's another elephant in the corner |
| 19:24.28 | pupnik | wow nice |
| 19:24.35 | timeless | and that's the fact that apple may have patents for cool things it does |
| 19:24.42 | timeless | like how to unlock a device |
| 19:24.42 | fysa | there are two issues I have with the browser -- friction of the screen/device against my finger makes dragging not feel so hot. and hitting the tiny 10pt font links with my finger. |
| 19:24.57 | timeless | fysa: good |
| 19:25.09 | timeless | the friction should make you think that panning is a really stupid solution |
| 19:25.15 | timeless | in fact, it results in hands that hurt a lot |
| 19:25.19 | pumpkingod | hmm |
| 19:25.20 | fysa | the first thing I usually do is set the minimum font size to 14pt.. this lets me not have to use 120% all the time, which makes the images ugly. |
| 19:25.24 | pumpkingod | I don't seem to have glib-config |
| 19:25.24 | timeless | and the other thing, hitting the links |
| 19:25.26 | *** join/#maemo shi11_ (n=seth@ip-216-46-70-34.nyc.megapath.net) |
| 19:25.28 | timeless | that's a very important problem |
| 19:25.30 | pumpkingod | anyone have any idea where I'd get it? |
| 19:25.30 | timeless | (vip :) |
| 19:25.34 | timeless | which *must* be solved |
| 19:25.51 | timeless | but is the problem that you want to read the page at 200% |
| 19:25.53 | fysa | that helps with the links a bit, but what I really want.. is some way to make those links easier to hit temporarily |
| 19:25.56 | timeless | or that you need to be able to click the link? |
| 19:26.01 | fysa | without ruining the page layout |
| 19:26.04 | timeless | i believe it's precisely as you stated it |
| 19:26.10 | timeless | that when you want to click the link, it's hard |
| 19:26.37 | timeless | so the solution should be to offer you some way to make it easier to click links w/o requiring the page to constantly use 120% or some other zoom level |
| 19:26.52 | timeless | fysa: let's try some more examples |
| 19:26.54 | fysa | if I could tap the screen and have all links in that area get CSS font-size:200% for 3-5 seconds, that could help. |
| 19:27.07 | *** join/#maemo guardian (n=guardian@ANantes-252-1-42-38.w82-126.abo.wanadoo.fr) |
| 19:27.12 | fysa | I've been trying to figure out a CSS hack to this.. |
| 19:27.16 | timeless | greasemonkey is available |
| 19:27.24 | timeless | so you should be able to write an addon that lets you toy w/ that |
| 19:27.37 | timeless | prototyping such things w/ greasemonkey is a very good idea |
| 19:28.03 | pupnik | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUOqR_2sACk also a nice omap opengl demo |
| 19:28.06 | timeless | btw: to the rest of #maemo, welcome to what's probably the first useful discussion of how to improve the browser ui anywhere :) |
| 19:28.09 | fysa | I have no issue with coding, just an issue with time. but a nice three weeks of vacation coming up soon.. |
| 19:28.23 | timeless | good for you :) |
| 19:28.45 | timeless | anyway, back to my prototyping |
| 19:28.49 | pumpkingod | does anyone know where I could find glib-config on my maemo? |
| 19:28.59 | czr | timeless, thank you. where's the popcorn? :-) |
| 19:29.13 | fysa | I know I could use JS to make all hrefs float fixed, bump their z-layer up and font-size: 200% and highlight them in some way to make them more visible |
| 19:29.14 | czr | timeless, and when does the feature start? :-) |
| 19:29.18 | sp3000 | hitting small links is ok, getting a context menu on them ...uh |
| 19:29.23 | fysa | but no matter what, that solution isn't going to work for 100% of the sites |
| 19:29.30 | timeless | http://timeless.justdave.net/mxr-test/chinook/find?string=glib-config |
| 19:29.31 | derf | As long as the d-pad doesn't move between what seem like essentially random links instead of scrolling the display. |
| 19:29.35 | timeless | says it's from pkg-config |

| 19:30.03 | timeless | fysa: i think the next question i have is probably how hurried you are when you click a link |
| 19:30.13 | derf | Except when you hold it down, of course, making it, after an interminable wait, start scrolling so fast that it's impossible to stop where you want it. |
| 19:30.18 | timeless | would you really be bothered if when you clicked a link you had the following things happen: |
| 19:30.48 | fysa | the absolute worst thing is having to pull the stylus out just to hit a link. |
| 19:31.16 | timeless | 1. a zoomed view of the clicked area appears (ideally only on the left/right of your clicking, say using 1/3 of the screen width) |
| 19:31.23 | fysa | the best would probably be links taking double-taps |
| 19:31.28 | fysa | when I go for a link, I'm done reading the page |
| 19:31.30 | timeless | 2. a couple of buttons appear above/below that box |
| 19:31.47 | timeless | w/ things like "context", "zoom", "properties" |
| 19:31.52 | fysa | I know what the text around it says and know where I want to go, I just want to do it accurately in as few steps as possible |
| 19:31.56 | timeless | i haven't quite figured out what buttons you'd get |
| 19:32.17 | fysa | one tap to 'zoom' the text, another to go |
| 19:32.19 | timeless | but basically you could then click on the link you really meant in the zoomed area |
| 19:32.35 | fysa | one tap to zoom the text, then hold to get properties |
| 19:32.44 | pupnik | interesting ideas timeless |
| 19:32.57 | timeless | the point is that we have a moderately sized box |
| 19:33.01 | timeless | and we need to think around it |
| 19:33.07 | timeless | instead of just having tunnel vision |
| 19:33.08 | fysa | this way, if there are no links around what I'm going for, I have confidence that I can double-tap |
| 19:33.19 | timeless | fysa: minor warning |
| 19:33.19 | fysa | without having to wait for a menu or context |
| 19:33.26 | timeless | consider the comment i made about about:config |
| 19:33.35 | timeless | i.e. <body onclick> instead of <a href/onclick> |
| 19:33.46 | fysa | right |
| 19:33.52 | timeless | there's no guarantee that you can ever find a point that isn't hot |
| 19:34.06 | timeless | and for most google web apps, there really are no ... how did halley call that? |
| 19:34.38 | *** join/#maemo hugolp (n=jo@89.131.10.145) |
| 19:34.45 | fysa | which is why in thumb mode, I don't think the first tap should be sent to the gecko/whatever/JS engine.. |
| 19:35.03 | fysa | it should be caught |
| 19:35.22 | timeless | the one minor problem w/ doing something like this |
| 19:35.29 | timeless | is that it requires a tutorial at the beginning |
| 19:35.33 | timeless | that's ok, our device already required one |
| 19:35.40 | timeless | and suffers from that lack |
| 19:35.54 | timeless | but ideally there can be /some/ hints |
| 19:36.08 | fysa | tapping is pretty natural. a context menu isn't bad, as long as it doesn't block i/o for that second confident tap |
| 19:36.10 | timeless | there is after all one pulsating led available :) |
| 19:36.19 | timeless | fysa: context menus are a mess |
| 19:36.26 | timeless | a web app might want one |
| 19:36.30 | timeless | so might the web browser |
| 19:36.39 | pumpkingod | timeless: it claims pkg-config is already installed :-/ |
| 19:36.47 | pumpkingod | but no glib-config |

| 19:37.47 | pumpkingod | I'm calling pkg-config glib --cflags |
| 19:37.51 | pumpkingod | but that just calls glib-config |
| 19:37.53 | timeless | did i mention a web app might want to support drag and drop? |
| 19:38.02 | timeless | worse, the web browser might want to too |

| 19:41.30 | DanielLion | You know .. id lvoe to see a 2ndlife client on here |
| 19:41.35 | timeless | it's reasonable to assume secret specifications exist |
| 19:41.38 | DanielLion | with the touch screen it would totaly rock |

| 20:10.22 | timeless | i'm pretty sure we can do at least basic trivial zoom w/o rerendering |

| 20:10.54 | pupnik | would that require disabling the pan-dragging feature? |

| 20:11.48 | timeless | if you want to get from one point to another |
| 20:11.55 | timeless | it makes more sense to zoom out and then refocus |
| 20:13.20 | timeless | ok, back to details |

| 20:14.22 | timeless | possibly w/ a mouse turd cursor trail (not sure) |
| 20:14.36 | timeless | basically each time you tap, your mouse would move to that position |

| 20:14.50 | timeless | until you switch out of hover mode |
| 20:14.59 | timeless | yes, modal uis suck |
| 20:15.05 | timeless | so does dealing w/ broken input methods |
| 20:15.14 | timeless | and the device we have is fundamentally flawed |
| 20:15.15 | pupnik | i think i understand, timeless needs to map a tablet to existing software |

| 20:16.06 | pupnik | so only way to do mouseover is some kind of modal thing |
| 20:16.07 | timeless | otoh, japanese devices are kinda in a different league |
| 20:16.16 | timeless | pupnik: essentially, probably |
| 20:16.28 | timeless | i'm not saying it the only way |
| 20:16.33 | Tak | it would have to be like 1mm thin with a 1mm border around the screen to sell in japan |
| 20:16.37 | timeless | but it's a way i'm proposing |
| 20:16.48 | halley | Not really, they either use a phone or a Panasonic lappy that's slightly bigger than an eeePC. |

| 20:18.20 | pupnik | hehe |
| 20:18.44 | timeless | anyway, there are other ways |
| 20:18.46 | halley | I hate the dpad being inside the foldup keyboard. |
| 20:18.53 | timeless | hover could have a timer that offers to tick |
| 20:18.58 | timeless | (yes perf people will kill me) |
| 20:19.23 | timeless | so if you stop tapping on the screen for say 20s, it could switch back to "click" |
| 20:19.30 | timeless | not sure that's a good thing or not |
| 20:19.32 | timeless | but it could do it |
| 20:19.42 | halley | 20sec is an eternity. |
| 20:19.45 | timeless | (things that would need to be prototyped/tested/tweaked) |
| 20:20.02 | timeless | halley: if you're in a hurry, tap click and tap your target |
| 20:20.37 | timeless | i think one question i have is how imprecise and how clustered will things be |

| 20:23.16 | Tak | timeless: yeah, wtf is with the dpad being there? |
| 20:23.24 | Tak | they killed gaming on the n810 deader than it already was |
| 20:23.40 | timeless | tak: did i mention that afaict none of the nokians i know had *any* influence over the hardware design/layout |

| 20:24.21 | Tak | the people that design and/or layout the hardware, have they ever seen or touched a tablet? |
| 20:24.51 | pupnik | have you touched a N810 yet Tak? |
| 20:25.03 | elb | is it really so horrible to slide out the keyboard? |

| 20:25.16 | timeless | you generally have issues w/ the up arrow key |
| 20:25.22 | Tak | err |

| 20:25.32 | pupnik | mk |
| 20:25.35 | timeless | left/right/down aren't so bad |
| 20:25.38 | elb | (I have not touched an N810) |

| 20:26.00 | timeless | you're not likely to bleed into QAZ from right |
| 20:26.09 | timeless | but it's not soft, fairly hard metal |
| 20:26.27 | timeless | (duh, yeah yeah, but still...) |
| 20:26.34 | timeless | (it could habe been rubber...) |
| 20:26.35 | Tak | Since there were no hardware buttons on the RHS, and in any case, you could only press one hardware button at a time, onscreen A/B/Sel/Start buttons were added to the right side of the UI |
| 20:26.45 | elb | mercury, for example, makes poor casing material ;-) |
| 20:27.00 | timeless | :) |
| 20:27.06 | timeless | tin isn't much better :| |
| 20:27.07 | Tak | and it's kind of symmetrical on the 770 and n800 to have your left thumb on the dpad and your right thumb on AB |
| 20:27.23 | elb | why could you only press one hardware button at a time? |
| 20:27.29 | timeless | tak: believe me, normal people aren't the only ones who complain about lack of gaming |
| 20:28.15 | Tak | but with the n810, you'll need to hold the kb slid out and dpad at the lower left of the screen, with AB at the upper right of the screen and kind of play at an awkward diagonal |
| 20:28.19 | elb | anyway, yeah, it does seem that a portable device wins by having a good d-pad and a few hardware buttons in convenient proximity to each other |
| 20:28.33 | Tak | elb: The hardware wouldn't register more than one. |
| 20:28.38 | elb | are there hardware keys on the RHS which could be used to be A/B/etc. ? |
| 20:28.47 | elb | oh, so a specific hardware limitation with the existing buttons? |
| 20:28.54 | Tak | There weren't. I was using zoom for a while |
| 20:29.01 | cbx33 | hmpf |
| 20:29.11 | elb | (note that, I have no idea about the nokia tablets, but key de-duping is generally performed in software, simply to keep from annoying users) |
| 20:29.11 | cbx33 | 2:36 left |
| 20:29.14 | pupnik | Tak: i think the keypad registers multiple keypresses |
| 20:29.58 | sp3000 | Tak: onscreen buttons at bottom of screen aren't impossible to thumb about iirc with while using the keys |
| 20:30.36 | pupnik | a/b/c/d buttons can be on keyboard afaict |
| 20:30.39 | elb | I would think that with the N810 keyboard, some RHS keys could be made into a/b/whatever keys |
| 20:30.51 | elb | thus putting hte d-pad and keys in a horizontal line |
| 20:31.07 | pupnik | yah |
| 20:31.37 | sp3000 | (if there's a problem getting simultaneous keys so you need onscreen buttons in the first place; I have no idea) |

| 21:04.10 | doc|work | hmmm, says only one is installed ... |
| 21:04.19 | fysa | I think that libglade2-0 is poisoned. |
| 21:04.33 | doc|work | leave it to maemo.org to fix? |
| 21:04.43 | fysa | and xmaeme was built for the newer non-friendly indt libglade, sounds like he just rebuilt for the regular libglade |
| 21:04.52 | Tak | yes. |
| 21:04.53 | fysa | which means libglade2-0 will not need to be upgraded for xmaeme to install |

| 21:08.35 | fysa | I can now duct-tape a Wiimote to the top of my N800 and try playing mario ;) |
| 21:09.05 | IPvFun | repositories* |
| 21:09.47 | alterego | I thought maemo came with it's own libglade. |
| 21:09.54 | pupnik | there's a genesis emu that just needs a hi-res timer in arm asm |
| 21:09.55 | alterego | In fact .. I know it does because I've used it! |
| 21:09.58 | fysa | it does. |
| 21:10.05 | fysa | but garage is tainted with a newer version |
| 21:10.10 | fysa | so apt-get install libglade2-0 will try to install it.. |
| 21:10.25 | fysa | and tak's xmaeme was built against a newer-than-included libglade |
| 21:10.39 | fysa | so it would force your device to try to install the tainted libglade2-0 |
| 21:10.46 | fysa | which app catalog was smart enough not to allow |
| 21:10.53 | pupnik | aha! |
| 21:10.57 | fysa | thus 'does not meet dependencies: libglade2-0' |
| 21:11.13 | buck68 | anybody know if multi-boot with n800 and os2008 developer image is feasible? |
| 21:12.29 | alterego | buck68, sure. If you know what you're doing it's quite a simple process really. |
| 21:12.56 | fysa | but then again, what isn't in that case? :) |

| 21:13.19 | alterego | I was going to work on that and USB host moding my N800 tonight. |
| 21:13.20 | buck68 | alterego: I looked at this: http://maemo.org/development/documentation/how-tos/3-x/howto_dualboot_bora.html |
| 21:13.30 | alterego | Depends if I get this "real" work finished though ^_^ |
| 21:13.51 | alterego | buck68, If you understand what's going on there. Then you should have a good chance of doing it yourself. |
| 21:13.56 | buck68 | i tried it, substituting 4.0 stuff where it seemed appropriate.. but when I got to the step of booting on the n800, the kernel seemed to hang |
| 21:13.59 | czr | alterego, what you working on? |
| 21:14.15 | alterego | czr, crappy website. |
| 21:14.30 | czr | sounds like "fun" :-) |
| 21:14.38 | buck68 | i'll give it another go... |
| 21:14.38 | fysa | is anyone doing actual compiling on device itself? |
| 21:14.42 | alterego | czr, I don't really like doing websites much. But it's where most of my work comes in :/ |
| 21:14.48 | czr | I'm trying to come up with some window-level property which people would be familiar with (other than 'modal') |
| 21:14.51 | alterego | Freakin' sods law. I'm not even that good at it! |
| 21:14.58 | czr | alterego, I feel your pain |
| 21:14.58 | buck68 | that's what i'd like to do, via scratchbox cpu transparency |
| 21:15.12 | czr | alterego, just like my material dev project, I could care less in all honesty :-) |

| 21:17.21 | czr | that's nice |
| 21:17.40 | czr | bleh. I'll need to write a test program |
| 21:18.06 | czr | or anyone around who can tell me whether it's true than when you set a GtkWindow modal = True, it won't affect anything if that is the main window of the app? |
| 21:19.04 | alterego | czr, I've got a feeling it doesn't .. But don't quote me ;) |
| 21:19.19 | alterego | czr, you could write a 3 liner in python ;) |
| 21:19.31 | czr | I could? |
| 21:19.41 | czr | I could I guess. but I don't do pygtk really |
| 21:19.50 | alterego | Sure, window = new Gtk.window(false) |
| 21:19.56 | alterego | Well, I don't know it either. |
| 21:19.59 | alterego | I could do it in Ruby |
| 21:20.09 | czr | I can always try |
| 21:20.11 | alterego | Would you like me to test for you? |
| 21:20.18 | czr | sure, if it's not too much to ask |
| 21:20.25 | alterego | No, two ticks. |
| 21:20.30 | czr | cool |
| 21:20.40 | czr | I should really start using pygtk one of these days |
| 21:20.57 | czr | but I'm not really a GUI person. not with crappy toolkits at least ;-) |
| 21:21.18 | czr | oh. did I say crappy? what I meant was "very very flexible" |
| 21:22.22 | alterego | czr, a toplevel window right? |
| 21:22.28 | czr | alterego, yup |
| 21:22.51 | czr | stick a label in the middle of it and set the window modality = True and see whether it is modal or not |
| 21:23.10 | alterego | Yeah, done that. |
| 21:23.24 | czr | is it? modal? :-) |
| 21:23.25 | alterego | It's not modal no. |
| 21:23.29 | czr | right. |
| 21:23.34 | czr | thanks :-) |
| 21:23.37 | alterego | It's pretty though. |
| 21:23.40 | czr | heh |
| 21:23.43 | alterego | And I did it in 4 lines in IRB |
| 21:23.47 | czr | I had two lines for 2 years in my material |
| 21:23.50 | IPvFun | is the os2008 browser engine gecko by default |
| 21:24.07 | alterego | IPvFun, by default and only. |
| 21:24.08 | czr | and yesterday someone started whining about those two lines. they were just an example on the property interface of GTK+ |
| 21:24.14 | czr | but it used the 'modal' property |
| 21:24.14 | alterego | IPvFun, There is no Opera in OS2008 |
| 21:24.27 | alterego | Hah |
| 21:24.30 | czr | IPvFun, you could always install Ballet on it |
| 21:24.32 | alterego | Yeah, that's funny. |
| 21:24.50 | czr | alterego, irony is that I don't even use modality anywhere in the proper examples |
| 21:24.52 | IPvFun | I'd rather go with gecko |
| 21:24.58 | alterego | So you were just checking to see whether the property actually had any effect so you didn't have to change those lines aye? ;) |
| 21:25.02 | czr | ah, a lizard lover |
| 21:25.36 | IPvFun | ;) |
| 21:25.41 | czr | alterego, well. just verifying what I got in one of the emails where someone said that I should use the "transient-to" property but when I told it was for top-level window they said that it "it's useless". |
| 21:25.43 | alterego | Crap .. All these distractions .. |
| 21:26.19 | czr | just verying what "it's useless means", since the GTK+ docs don't say anything about this |
| 21:26.19 | alterego | Right |
| 21:26.19 | czr | thanks |
| 21:26.20 | alterego | np |
| 21:26.20 | czr | alterego, can you do another test? :-) |
| 21:26.24 | alterego | I know ruby/gtk very well so anytime. |
| 21:26.27 | czr | try setting resizable to false :-) |
| 21:26.28 | alterego | Yeah? |
| 21:26.31 | czr | 'resizable' |
| 21:26.33 | alterego | Okay |
| 21:26.43 | czr | I'm going to replace modal with that. |
| 21:28.01 | alterego | czr, works how it should. Window is not resizable :) |
| 21:28.07 | czr | cool. thanks a lot |
| 21:28.12 | alterego | np |
| 21:28.22 | alterego | Lot quicker than writing out crappy tests in C :P |
| 21:29.51 | czr | true that |

| 21:31.44 | alterego | But if you don't .. You can always try Ruby :P |
| 21:31.54 | czr | btw, is extending ruby with C painful and does the API change a lot? |
| 21:32.12 | alterego | No |
| 21:32.16 | czr | and better yet, is it documented? |
| 21:32.20 | alterego | It's _really_ easy. |
| 21:32.27 | alterego | Ah, documented not so much no. |
| 21:32.39 | alterego | The best resource is a chapter on it in "Programming Ruby" |
| 21:32.42 | czr | http://docs.python.org/api/api.html |
| 21:32.46 | alterego | That and ruby.h and intern.h |
| 21:32.48 | czr | heh. that's not good :-) |
| 21:33.37 | alterego | Well, it's not so bad. You get a feel for how things are structured quite quickly and it just becomes easy. If something seems to hard then you're doing it wrong and should check for an easy way to do it. |
| 21:33.52 | czr | sure. similar to CPython really I guess |
| 21:34.00 | czr | but having proper docs for everything really really helps |
| 21:34.21 | czr | anyhow, I think I'll stick to python for a while longer :-). it's just so sneaky. |
| 21:34.29 | alterego | Heh |
| 21:34.29 | czr | and fuzzy. and warm. |
| 21:34.45 | alterego | I got the impression writing C extensions for Python was painful. |
| 21:34.57 | alterego | Looks a lot like ruby. |
| 21:34.59 | czr | oh? |
| 21:35.00 | alterego | Just not as OO. |
| 21:35.01 | czr | it's not |
| 21:35.14 | czr | well, it's structured around namespaces/dicts |
| 21:35.19 | alterego | The API's are almost identical. |
| 21:35.24 | czr | since python is based on dynamic namespaces |
| 21:35.36 | alterego | Yeah, that's where the differences seem to be. |
| 21:35.42 | czr | which pretty much means that you can do metamorphic template classes _if_ you want them |
| 21:35.49 | alterego | If you take some of the Object orientation bits. That's like the Ruby API. |
| 21:36.01 | alterego | Then you have helper macros like STR2CSTR etc. |
| 21:36.02 | czr | and all kinds of other very-OO stuff which goes beyond my capacity |
| 21:36.31 | alterego | Anyhow .. More distractions and I've got a deadline. |
| 21:36.39 | czr | CPython also has macros. but the symbol space is more structured. you'll never see anything that doesn't start with Py_ or PY_ |
| 21:36.46 | czr | chop chop alterego |
| 21:36.50 | alterego | :P |
| 21:37.01 | alterego | Thank god for rails .. |

| 23:34.01 | |tbb| | i will dl it tommorrow, from maemo thx |
| 23:34.12 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah, they're really duking it out in there. :\ |
| 23:34.15 | |tbb| | czr: do u use ukmp |
| 23:34.23 | czr | |tbb|, no |
| 23:34.36 | GeneralAntilles | You complain about the download, but you don't actually want a solution? |
| 23:34.36 | lophyte | GeneralAntilles, its hilarious how people jump on the first guy |
| 23:35.12 | alterego | Hah |
| 23:35.30 | |tbb| | i just wonder whats up, 10 kbs reminds me to my isdn time |
| 23:35.32 | alterego | I guess I was lucky being one of the first people to download the OS2008 beta. |
| 23:35.40 | alterego | It wasn't even in announcements when I got it .. |
| 23:36.14 | czr | |tbb|, the site has been slow ever since the beta went public |
| 23:36.44 | czr | alterego, pygtk is better than raw gtk, but man, gtk is ugly :-) |
| 23:36.44 | alterego | How long can it take 4k odd people to download it .. |
| 23:36.47 | |tbb| | igot the os2k8 long time now, but no way to using any bt headset ive got |
| 23:37.00 | alterego | czr, I'm not going to dissagree with you there ;) |
| 23:37.10 | alterego | czr, what ever you do .. Don't use the tree view ^_^ |
| 23:37.14 | |tbb| | so i hope with the first beta of n800 os2008 it will work |
| 23:37.15 | czr | alterego, heh |
| 23:37.18 | czr | alterego, it's that bad? |
| 23:37.39 | czr | alterego, what on earth am I supposed to use then? |
| 23:37.45 | czr | "write your own widget"? |
| 23:37.55 | alterego | czr, well. Not really, just badly documented and if you design your app MVC it adds another MVC layer that has to be integrated properly. |
| 23:38.07 | czr | eww |
| 23:38.17 | alterego | So you get an MMVVCC app :) |
| 23:38.19 | czr | also, I think I found a bug in the gutsy theme or smt |
| 23:38.24 | alterego | What's that in decimal :D |
| 23:38.26 | czr | the more M, the merrier :-) |
| 23:38.34 | |tbb| | it where nice if the rss applet stops scrolling while another application is in the foreground, so it saves cpu time |
| 23:38.40 | czr | 2000 smt |
| 23:38.43 | |tbb| | and save battery at least |
| 23:39.14 | czr | |tbb|, have you filed a bug? |
| 23:39.20 | GeneralAntilles | OS2008 Beta works fine with bluetooth headsets. |
| 23:40.03 | |tbb| | GeneralAntilles: with skype? which bt headset do u got |
| 23:40.06 | alterego | Logically it should really be MMCVCV |
| 23:40.31 | czr | bleh. the pygtk tutorial is from 2005. |
| 23:40.32 | |tbb| | czr: is this a bug? its more a wish ;) |
| 23:40.40 | czr | |tbb|, file a feature request then |
| 23:40.47 | GeneralAntilles | Dunno, don't use Skype, but as its an OS-level thing, I don't see why there would be a problem. Plantronics Voyager 510. |
| 23:40.51 | czr | |tbb|, complaining here won't get it fixed/implemented :-) |
| 23:41.26 | alterego | czr, a little advice when using Gtk. Take a Gtk::Window for instance. When you create one, instead of being procedural. Create your own AppWindow class and inherit from Gtk::Window. Then setup all the view attributes and internal signal logic. Then add children (which themselves should be inherited classes unless they're dead simple like a Label). |
| 23:41.35 | |tbb| | GeneralAntilles: could u hear music in mono |
| 23:41.47 | alterego | Do all that crap in your constructor. |
| 23:42.05 | alterego | It makes for a nice clean Gtk application design IMO |
| 23:42.27 | czr | alterego, so subclassing is the way to go? |
| 23:42.51 | czr | alterego, I thought about that, but the pygtk tutorial seems to do some kind of middle way. it feels unnatural. good to know though. |
| 23:42.52 | alterego | czr, yeah. That's how the pro's do it ;) |
| 23:43.09 | GeneralAntilles | It's "you", and yes. Mind you, this is a bluetooth _headset_ and not a pair of bluetooth _headphones_, so mono is the only option. :) |
| 23:43.09 | czr | "pro's". it's a matter of implementation bugs as well :-) |
| 23:43.10 | |tbb| | anyone has tried iphones browser right now |
| 23:43.19 | alterego | :) |
| 23:43.51 | |tbb| | GeneralAntilles: ive got s9 motorolla bt headphone |
| 23:44.14 | czr | alterego, the pygtk tutorial is horrible. it's like they took the obsolete gtk tutorial, then just rewrote it line by line using python. so it reads like C, but is not. yuck :-) |
| 23:44.14 | |tbb| | it supports a2dp ;) |
| 23:44.29 | alterego | czr, if you've done much work in GUI apps you'll understand that it gets ugly _quick_. So having a good MVC strategy is extremely important, languages like Python & Ruby make it easy to separate internal signal handlers and external ones by keeping the view logic inside your view class. |
| 23:44.37 | GeneralAntilles | No A2DP yet. |
| 23:44.39 | *** join/#maemo MagicFab (n=magicfab@ubuntu/member/magicfab) |
| 23:44.52 | czr | alterego, I don't do GUI work. I do interesting stuff :-) |
| 23:44.59 | alterego | czr, yeah. Same for the Ruby tutorial. It's more an introduction to using widgets and the Gtk architecture. Not about writing good apps in it. |
| 23:45.06 | czr | alterego, but yeah, I know a thing or two about MVC. I wasn't always this picky about what I did |
| 23:45.13 | alterego | Hah |
| 23:45.28 | alterego | I only really like the M in MVC ^_^ |
| 23:45.42 | |tbb| | GeneralAntilles: which os2008 image do u use the latest one of the n810 or the n800 specific one |
| 23:45.55 | GeneralAntilles | The N800 beta, like I said before. |
| 23:45.56 | czr | alterego, pygtk is silly. for example, you can do this: print window.border_width. but window.border_width = 10 -> exception. need to use window.set_border_width(10). bleh |
| 23:46.09 | czr | alterego, although I have an old version of it on my main system. maybe they've changed that. |
| 23:46.20 | alterego | czr, that is pretty silly. Ruby allows both. |
| 23:46.35 | czr | alterego, python should too. it's not rocket science. |
| 23:47.15 | alterego | Yeh. There are a few PyGtk issues. But probably because it's all generated with SWIG. Where as Ruby/Gnome2 is SWIG and a lot of editing. |
| 23:47.28 | czr | swig is evil. |
| 23:47.33 | alterego | They've really tried hard to Rubinize the whole gobject stuff. |
| 23:47.35 | alterego | Very clever. |
| 23:47.36 | czr | I through it away after the first time I used it. |
| 23:47.45 | czr | threw even |
| 23:47.55 | alterego | I couldn't get it to work. So I just did everything by hand ;) |
| 23:47.58 | czr | then decided that writing the stuff manually is much easier |
| 23:48.37 | alterego | Gives you more control and 75% of bindings are no brainers. (Which thinking about SWIG should be able to handle easily but doesn't) |
| 23:49.01 | killfill | hey GeneralAntilles do you happend to use SIP thoguht vpnc? |
| 23:49.34 | GeneralAntilles | I use SIP, but not through vpnc. |
| 23:52.17 | killfill | there seem to be a problem with this.. :S |
| 23:53.21 | czr | alterego, comments like this in the tuto: # Clean up allocated memory and remove the timer |
| 23:53.33 | czr | alterego, "clean up allocated memory"? come again? hello? this is python? bleh |
| 23:53.50 | alterego | Hahah |
| 23:54.15 | czr | someone should really rewrite the tutorial |
| 23:54.52 | l7 | bah, buy.com is charging the same price as amazon for the n800 now |
| 23:55.06 | l7 | wait, amazon's price went up too |
| 23:55.07 | l7 | weird |
| 23:55.11 | GeneralAntilles | They ran out. |
| 23:55.13 | |tbb| | whats the price now |
| 23:55.30 | czr | USD is sliding down? |
| 23:55.40 | GeneralAntilles | Ha |
| 23:55.57 | bedboi | USD is sliding down since 4 months now |
| 23:55.58 | zerojay | Happy time to be Canadian. :) |
| 23:56.51 | czr | I'd think the canadian economy isn't isolated from the one in the states? |
| 23:56.56 | czr | or is it? |
| 23:57.06 | zerojay | It's not isolated, but we're doing just fine. :) |
| 23:57.14 | czr | ah. good to hear |
