| 00:00.20 | kaie | interesting, it still created a .modest directory with my settings. where are the mail settings from the pre-diablo mail app? |
| 00:00.35 | kaie | maybe it is migrating old settings, when I start modest without a .modest dir |

| 00:03.15 | kaie | very very confusing. I killed modest. I moved away .modest and apps. I start modest, and it still knows about my email account |
| 00:03.28 | kaie | so maybe it's the launcher that still has the information cached |
| 00:03.35 | kaie | let me move away and restart system |
| 00:04.42 | kaie | has anyone of you used it successfully with a cyrus email server and imap/ssl ? |

| 00:05.24 | rm_you | whether we're using cyrus still |
| 00:05.50 | rm_you | i set it up with cyrus several years back but i think the server has been upgraded since then by another maintainer... |
| 00:06.07 | rm_you | lemmie connect with telnet and see if it gives me version info |
| 00:06.45 | rm_you | imap is... 443? |

| 00:39.02 | lcuk | lol jott |
| 00:39.41 | crashanddie | jott, though, the appeal of the loading screen, for me, is that I just display it, process what needs to be processed, and then jump on that. I don't draw a single frame in between. Drawing stuff during processing is going to need me rethinking the whole process :P |

| 00:58.01 | kaie | GeneralAntilles, I have flashed the device |
| 00:58.13 | GeneralAntilles | That doesn't answer my question. |
| 00:58.19 | crashanddie | Yeah, but modest is persistent |
| 00:58.20 | kaie | yes I had killed it |

| 00:59.03 | kaie | GeneralAntilles, when I quit the app, ps no longer shows a modest process |

| 01:48.02 | crashanddie | kaie, my usual arrogant self would tell you you fucked up the config at some point |
| 01:48.29 | kaie | crashanddie, how could I have done that, if I get the same results after a fresh flash of the device? |
| 01:48.39 | crashanddie | that's exactly what my point is |
| 01:48.50 | kaie | doesn't the flash remove everything in /home/user ? |
| 01:49.00 | crashanddie | ok |
| 01:49.02 | crashanddie | let me rephrase that |
| 01:49.54 | crashanddie | You fucked up the settings in modest, get a grip, change them, play with them. Find a connection that does work, and stop trying on your server, go from working -> non working, and note the differences and thus possible problems |
| 01:50.03 | crashanddie | but moaning and whining about it for 3 hours straight isn't going to solve it |
| 01:50.25 | crashanddie | Obviously, we don't know the answer, or we would've tried to help you, but frankly, our guess is as good as yours. So wrap it up, and start doing something useful |
| 01:51.23 | kaie | please tell me, is my assumption true, that after using ./flash-3.0 diablo the device is completely clean, and only has the factory files |
| 01:51.27 | kaie | and nothing from me |
| 01:51.54 | crashanddie | as long as you don't run the restore-backup tool, it should be clean, yes |
| 01:51.59 | kaie | I mean, /home/user and file system is completely clean. only some files on the internal memory card |
| 01:52.01 | kaie | good |
| 01:52.15 | kaie | then it's impossible that I could have fucked up anything |
| 01:52.24 | crashanddie | how is that ? |
| 01:52.38 | crashanddie | I mean, you're obviously feeding something to modest, right ? |
| 01:52.46 | crashanddie | It doesn't get its parameters for the connection out of thin air ? |
| 01:53.08 | crashanddie | I know some of us coders are good, but still, even virgin marry couldn't pull that one |
| 01:53.23 | kaie | yes, I'm entering them manually, I'm a developer, I understand mail protocols, I'm absolutely sure that I'm entering the settings correctly |
| 01:54.02 | crashanddie | I don't care if you're a dev, if you understand mail prots or if you fiddle with the NASA shuttle |
| 01:54.19 | kaie | I haven't fucked it up, but we can agree that modest simply does not work in my ocnfiguration |
| 01:54.21 | crashanddie | kaie, do you have a GMail account ? |
| 01:54.23 | kaie | whatever the cause is |
| 01:55.08 | kaie | crashanddie, yes |
| 01:55.25 | crashanddie | try to connect to it |
| 01:58.10 | crashanddie | kaie, yes, it is very possible Modest is borked in a way it can't connect to your specific connection settings (especially if they're very specific). But repeating it over and over isn't going to help. I'm sure you can understand that. |
| 01:58.44 | elekt | :D |
| 01:58.46 | elekt | gmail working? |
| 01:58.56 | crashanddie | GMail works fine here |
| 02:01.03 | kaie | gmail imap doesn't work either. ok, I tried to dump all but port 22. I now see that it tries to use dns, but it seems it never gets a response |
| 02:01.06 | moontiger | what kind of gpg key do i need to generate for packaging?? |
| 02:01.11 | kaie | which is weird, because the n810 browser succeeds |
| 02:01.32 | moontiger | kaie, where are you located? |
| 02:01.38 | kaie | let me try to use some other dns server, rather than the one my home router provides |
| 02:01.48 | kaie | home, dsl, nat |

| 02:04.50 | kaie | so, after I changed the dns server of the wireless connection, it immediately works with gmail |
| 02:05.17 | kaie | I conclude my home router dns server is incompatible with modest's connection attempts, but compatible with the rest of the n810 |
| 02:05.20 | moontiger | so ur router dns server doesnt like the n810 |

| 08:32.36 | qwerty12 | Ouch. You mean from an image? |
| 08:32.38 | Stskeeps | yup |
| 08:32.41 | qwerty12 | hates images |
| 08:32.50 | qwerty12 | The speed is horrible >.< |
| 08:33.00 | Stskeeps | actually wasnt that bad initially, but yeah |
| 08:33.12 | Stskeeps | i made installer so people can debootstrap and install onto a image |
| 08:33.22 | Stskeeps | and it adds a boot menu item that allows people to boot in |
| 08:33.39 | Stskeeps | main challenge.. busybox 1.0.0 in initfs does not support loopback :> |
| 08:34.12 | qwerty12 | Unless you can get a uclibc toolchain, you won't be making a new version :) |
| 08:34.27 | Stskeeps | so i put a busybox with only mount enabled on the FAT filesystem, mount it without noexec, run a linuxrc on the fat filesystem that mounts the image file |
| 08:34.30 | qwerty12 | That reminds me, remember what you said about stracing programs on initfs? |
| 08:34.35 | Stskeeps | mm? |
| 08:34.47 | Stskeeps | and the linuxrc then mount -o remount,noexec /mnt/new_root |
| 08:34.48 | Stskeeps | :P |
| 08:35.12 | qwerty12 | It's not really accurate, the strace is using glibc while programs in initfs use uclibc, I think someone already said that on bugzilla and then that was said |
| 08:35.14 | qwerty12 | cool :) |
| 08:35.27 | qwerty12 | s/then/when/ |
| 08:35.33 | Stskeeps | qwerty12: ltrace was better than strace i think |
| 08:35.36 | Stskeeps | in this manner |
| 08:36.15 | qwerty12 | ah, ok |
| 08:37.25 | Stskeeps | but what i made makes it possible to make a "Easy Debian" with a image file, "Simple" mode where it builds a .img file and debootstraps onto it - so people can hybrid both boot into it and chroot into it |
| 08:38.14 | qwerty12 | Hmm, I like the idea. But I'd personally prefer it to be left as it is and the chroot guys to chroot from a block partition |

| 08:38.38 | qwerty12 | Even with Android, it ran much faster off a proper partition |
| 08:38.42 | Stskeeps | yeah, that's the best choice really |
| 08:38.58 | Stskeeps | and that's what i would recommend myself |
| 08:39.05 | Stskeeps | but some want to try out debian "easily" without re-partitioning and all that jaz |
| 08:39.05 | Stskeeps | z |
| 08:39.38 | qwerty12 | yeah, true, I guess that's one of the reasons chroot appeals to them :/ |
| 08:40.18 | Stskeeps | also i had to include mknod /dev/loop0 stuff in initfs installer :P |

| 08:56.07 | Stskeeps | *nod* |
| 08:56.34 | Stskeeps | i thought about loadable .imgs from SD as a possibility to extend initfs as well |

| 08:57.45 | Stskeeps | but that's a bit disturbed by the fact busybox doesnt do loopback |
| 08:57.59 | qwerty12 | lcuk: around 10:00 AM |
| 08:58.13 | lcuk | thats what i thought, nokia flasher is telling me its wrong |
| 08:58.31 | qwerty12 | lcuk: someone had that problem on the itt forums, I can't remember where though |
| 08:58.45 | Stskeeps | -but- it would be possible to have a linuxrc boot item that is "Recovery tools" that starts up /media/mmc1/linuxrc.recovery for instance |
| 08:58.50 | Stskeeps | that then can supplement with recovery image |
| 08:58.55 | lcuk | great - it waits until device is plugged in before downloading the firmware |
| 08:59.00 | Stskeeps | since linuxrc runs inside initfs |
| 08:59.09 | qwerty12 | yeah |
| 08:59.26 | qwerty12 | lcuk: go on tablets-dev and grab the firmware manually. and then flash it in linux :> |

| 09:00.59 | GAN800 | SDHC is SDHC is SDHC |
| 09:01.27 | qwerty12 | Hmm, maybe I'm hoping here, but is there a tool that can get information about a lib file? Hex editor isn't helping me here :/ |
| 09:01.31 | liri | GAN800: well I'm just not familiar with these things so I was wondering. no idea what's the HC is supposed to mean either |

| 09:02.25 | qwerty12 | lcuk: more about strings, I want to find the exact version of uclibc used |
| 09:02.30 | liri | GAN800: but does it mean that the internal structure of the micro sdhc card itself is different or something? |
| 09:02.32 | lcuk | ahhh k |
| 09:02.37 | qwerty12 | if nokia are being assholes about it, I'll compile my own |
| 09:03.23 | GAN800 | liri, forget the formactor. Micro and Mini aren't relevant. |

| 11:43.53 | kkrusty | I got a n810 yesterday and I just tried using a microsd card with a minisd card coverter. The n810 wasnt responding so I pulled out the battery and put it back again. Now nothing is working |
| 11:45.29 | LinuxCode | sounds fishy |
| 11:45.37 | LinuxCode | works perfectly fine here |
| 11:45.55 | kkrusty | Its not turning on |

| 11:46.18 | LinuxCode | could be a battery/power fault |
| 11:46.24 | kkrusty | ordered it from play.com |
| 11:46.36 | LinuxCode | thats where i got mine from hehe |
| 11:46.50 | lcuk | kkrusty, with it all switched off, plug the charger in and see what happens |

| 11:49.19 | lcuk | did you replace the battery correctly? |
| 11:49.24 | lcuk | ok |
| 11:49.36 | LinuxCode | could be the battery |
| 11:49.43 | lcuk | with charger in what happens when you press and hold power |
| 11:49.49 | LinuxCode | never tried if it works without |

| 18:10.41 | AStorm | ShadowJK: how large are the batteries? |
| 18:11.00 | AStorm | johnx: 0.35 W = 350 mW is dissipated as heat |

| 18:13.13 | ShadowJK | 1.2V * 1.5Ah = 1.8 Watthours, 5 Volts * .35 A = 1.75Watt.. should last slightly more than an hour if 100% efficient? |
| 18:13.25 | Stskeeps | johnx: and this without repartitioning |
| 18:13.30 | AStorm | huh what? |
| 18:13.53 | AStorm | ShadowJK: sorry, it's 1500 mAh |
| 18:13.58 | AStorm | you get 90% of that |
| 18:14.13 | AStorm | and you're pulling 350 mA |
| 18:14.25 | AStorm | 1500 * 0.9 / 350 = hours |
| 18:14.29 | ShadowJK | You don't get 1500mAh at 5Volts out of a 1.2V 1500mAh battery |
| 18:14.42 | AStorm | yes, but you're running two, righT? |

| 18:14.52 | ShadowJK | oh this one takes one :P |
| 18:15.05 | AStorm | ah, so it's probably like 80% efficient then |
| 18:15.15 | AStorm | that gives 3.5h |
| 18:15.19 | ShadowJK | You have to account for the voltage differene |
| 18:15.22 | AStorm | ... |
| 18:15.34 | AStorm | 80% efficiency means you get 80% of power |
| 18:15.43 | ShadowJK | A isn't power |
| 18:15.44 | AStorm | the 20% are wasted |
| 18:15.54 | AStorm | ShadowJK: it is, if multiplied by 1h |
| 18:15.55 | AStorm | ;P |
| 18:16.05 | AStorm | actually, it's work then |
| 18:16.14 | AStorm | we want time to run down |
| 18:16.38 | AStorm | so you get capacity in Ah * efficiency / (current * time) |
| 18:16.53 | AStorm | assuming it's pulling 350 mA, that means it uses 350mAh in an hour |
| 18:17.06 | ShadowJK | In that case you must measure current from the AA battery, not current into the N8x0 |
| 18:17.10 | AStorm | no |
| 18:17.13 | ShadowJK | yes |
| 18:17.17 | AStorm | efficiency takes care of that |
| 18:17.21 | AStorm | :) |
| 18:17.39 | AStorm | efficiency = conversion efficiency |
| 18:18.00 | AStorm | so, n810 sees that much capacity actually, taking into account all conversion losses |
| 18:18.07 | ShadowJK | There's no circuit in the world that will take 1.5 volt at .35/.8 A and output 5V at .35A |
| 18:18.14 | AStorm | sure, there is |
| 18:18.18 | ShadowJK | No there isn't |
| 18:18.21 | AStorm | it's called a step-up DC/DC converter |
| 18:18.38 | AStorm | uhm, wait |
| 18:18.42 | AStorm | it will take more current, yes |
| 18:18.48 | AStorm | but you don't care |
| 18:19.02 | AStorm | as efficiency takes that into consideration |
| 18:19.35 | ShadowJK | The basic principle is that input watts is same as output watts, minus efficiency losses |
| 18:19.36 | *** join/#maemo fab__ (n=bellet@bellet.info) |

| 18:20.28 | AStorm | time is also same |

| 18:20.52 | AStorm | it's pulling like 450 mA from the battery |
| 18:21.26 | ShadowJK | So 5Volts out at .35A, that's 1.75Watt. At an input voltage of 1.2 Volt, you will need 1.75W / 1.2V = 1.46 Amps, assuming 100% efficient conversion. At 80% efficienct that becomes about 1.82 Amps |
| 18:21.48 | Stskeeps | johnx: odd question.. did beta3 do fscks or not? |

| 18:22.12 | ShadowJK | P = U * I and so on |
| 18:22.20 | AStorm | ShadowJK: NiMH for low-current would fail already |
| 18:22.31 | AStorm | unless the 350mA is bursty load |

| 18:30.59 | ShadowJK | AStorm, well, it's entirely possible that their low-capacity cells were actually MEANT to be high capacity cells, but had quality problems during manufacturing, so they're kinda crap and get labeled as low capacity lower drain |
| 18:31.45 | ShadowJK | But 1-2Amp for any AA nimh is pretty low drain anyway, relatively |

| 18:36.27 | AStorm | I;m not sure if it's better to serially link the NiMH to get the 2.4V in, and get smaller capacity |
| 18:36.38 | AStorm | or link them parallel and face lower converter efficiency |

| 20:18.06 | lcuk | are we talking seconds per frame, or still <0.2s kind of slow? |
| 20:18.34 | melmoth | i think drawing one frame will take more than a second |
| 20:18.52 | lcuk | arghh, is there any reasonable speedups you could attempt - even if you get it working on an offscreen bitmap, that kind of refresh time isnt good |
| 20:19.54 | melmoth | i do not know where i could speed up things. I already try to load as few nodes as possible. |

| 20:20.49 | lcuk | is this the project itself? |
| 20:21.00 | melmoth | no, i do not do that. i just know drawing the frame is fast compared to fetching the data in the db and computing the route :-) |
| 20:21.05 | melmoth | yes it is |
| 20:22.03 | lcuk | lookup and rendering should be seperate to the route system? |
| 20:22.27 | lcuk | ie you dont have to do routing just the render do you |
| 20:22.42 | melmoth | the idea is to start to draw stuff only once i have a route |
| 20:22.53 | melmoth | no point rendering stuff if i do not know where to go |
| 20:23.35 | melmoth | the route is extremely long, but, i think i ll try to hasv some "preferred" route stored, and only compute route to one of the nearest node in a route i already have computed |

| 20:29.42 | lcuk | where have you had experience with maps? or is all of it new? |
| 20:29.45 | melmoth | lcuk: but the main wast of time is not that much the drawinfg itself, it s the feeding of nodes in the database, (wich needs to have at least the area from start to destination to compute route). |
| 20:30.20 | melmoth | as this takes a long time, and as i need this to dra the litte local map, i decided to do every stuff related to map in a separate obkect |
| 20:30.52 | melmoth | the gui is just , displaying stuff already made, and taking user events. |
| 20:31.16 | lcuk | melmoth, yes route scanning is like lightening, it expands from both ends to adjacent nodes until it meets its counterpart |

| 20:47.04 | melmoth | moontiger: no, i m not into routing problems yet. my current issue is being able to prepare a cairo image in a separate thread than the one the gui is running on |
| 20:47.48 | moontiger | you cant pass the drawing surface into the thread? |
| 20:48.22 | melmoth | the surface depends from the window it s on. |
| 20:48.37 | melmoth | and i do not think passing it in another thread that would change its buffer is a good idea. |
| 20:48.48 | moontiger | well right but you cant pass a structure to the drawing thread that describes the surface it has to work with? |
| 20:49.17 | lcuk | shouldnt the worker thread simply be preparing vecotrs |
| 20:49.25 | melmoth | that s what i would like to be able to do ,like a numeric array (but maemo pygtk is not compiled to support it) or an array.array |
| 20:49.26 | lcuk | the render thread should just draw what its got available |
| 20:49.45 | melmoth | hmmm |
| 20:49.56 | lcuk | simply give it a list of (sx,sy,ex,ey,thick,color) |
| 20:49.59 | moontiger | ideally you would want a fifo render pipeline that gets fed from the prep thread |
| 20:50.13 | moontiger | lifo that is |
| 20:50.14 | moontiger | doh |
| 20:50.36 | melmoth | i like the idea of sendinf a list of vector, or a description of the image. |
| 20:50.58 | moontiger | can you not set up a shared memory buffer |
| 20:51.07 | melmoth | moontiger: i did try. |
| 20:51.14 | moontiger | that the prep thread writes to and the render thread / app reads from |
| 20:51.27 | moontiger | like a dma buffer |
| 20:51.29 | melmoth | i was 1)not able to use it on the draw area itself (becuase of lack of skills) |
| 20:51.36 | lcuk | i even do it another way, in one of the things in my project, ive got 900 little sketch files to load and display - now i cannot do this all in a reasonable time, it takes about 20 seconds to load - but each frame i just load a couple |
| 20:51.52 | melmoth | 2) when , in the gui thread i used this buffer to write a file, i realised i had it wrong anyway: opposite and some mask problem |
| 20:52.21 | melmoth | i try to copy it in a numeric array to rechangeh it the way i want, without success. |
| 20:52.33 | moontiger | so the gui is where the user selects to end points and off you go yes? |
| 20:52.48 | moontiger | to = two |
| 20:53.43 | melmoth | the user only select 1 end point in a simple gtktreeview: it s alist of available "station", where you can take and put back the rent a bike thingy. |

| 20:55.52 | moontiger | hmmmmm i havent played with threads in python much but cant they see each others shared memory? |
| 20:56.08 | moontiger | or at least see the apps shared memory? |
| 20:56.12 | AStorm | they can |
| 20:56.21 | AStorm | but it means they take the global lock |
| 20:56.33 | AStorm | the Global Interpreter Lock, or GIL |
| 20:56.38 | moontiger | so you could set up a route planning thread ... a rendering thread and have them run async to the main gui |
| 20:56.44 | moontiger | ahhhhhhhhhhh |
| 20:56.47 | AStorm | every bunch of bytecode lines |
| 20:57.04 | moontiger | wow thats a brilliant design decision ... not |
| 20:57.06 | AStorm | or some time |
| 20:57.09 | melmoth | that s what i m planning to do. Right now there is a main thread, one for the gui, and one for the mapping thingy |
| 20:57.11 | AStorm | moontiger: it is easier to do |

| 21:53.58 | lbt | ok - is this battery out time BTW? |
| 21:54.08 | Stskeeps | hm? |
| 21:54.16 | Stskeeps | it's something checkroot does if /dev/root != something, - it sets it correctly to the device node of the mmc partition |

| 22:24.44 | trev0r | why |
| 22:24.49 | Gracana | does not have the money to spend on an iphone data plan |
| 22:25.04 | Gracana | capacitive touchscreen, 3D acceleration, and accelerometers. |
| 22:25.24 | lcuk | why not, they are graphically interesting, however you lose being able to do precision work due to stylus infriendly screen |
| 22:25.32 | Gracana | It has some stupid limitations (I really like the openness of the NITs), but it should be a lot of fun. |

| 22:26.24 | trev0r | their screens are only a lower resolution |
| 22:26.36 | lcuk | and you cannot use a stylus.. |
| 22:26.40 | Gracana | Yeah, quite a bit lower resolution. |
| 22:26.41 | lcuk | normal one |
| 22:26.46 | Gracana | lcuk, I'd rather not use a stylus anyway. |
| 22:26.52 | lcuk | but they have nice shiney things to make up for it |
| 22:26.55 | Gracana | I am quite drawn to the iphone UI. |
| 22:26.59 | Gracana | haha, indeed |
| 22:27.00 | lcuk | Gracana, for some things i agree |
| 22:27.25 | lcuk | but not for everything, i got the 810 because i wanted a keyboard that didnt take up real eastate |
| 22:27.27 | moontiger | but single tasking |
| 22:27.35 | moontiger | iphone that is |
| 22:27.43 | lcuk | on the itouch things, you lose both ways, not really improved res and having to give up space |
| 22:27.50 | Gracana | I should add that I don't necessarily think it's a batter platform.. I'm just a gadget freak and I like to try everything out. |
| 22:28.14 | moontiger | i just really dislike steve jobs and the cult of the cool-aid |
| 22:28.20 | Gracana | lcuk, I have an N800. I really wish I had an N810, that keyboard would be handy. |
| 22:28.20 | trev0r | i'm sure surfing is easier on the tablet |
| 22:28.30 | Gracana | moontiger, no kidding. :| |
| 22:28.53 | lcuk | trev0r, no way - have you seen the candy when browsing on iphone |
| 22:29.03 | lcuk | the NIT is like swimming in treacle |
| 22:29.17 | moontiger | lcuk, if they would give us the 3d driver stuff we could have all that |
| 22:29.21 | Gracana | So far I haven't found any device this small that I like web surfing on. |
| 22:29.33 | lcuk | moontiger, nobody agrees with you more than myself :) |
| 22:29.35 | trev0r | yeah but since the screen is low res you have to zoom in more |
| 22:29.39 | moontiger | the iphone is a nice web browser device for sure |
| 22:30.09 | trev0r | i would assume |
| 22:30.43 | Gracana | Now, if someone released an open iphone-like hardware with a hardware keyboard and an 800x480 screen, I would just about die with glee. |
| 22:31.04 | yigal | is there anyway to speed Simple up to approach Claws like speed, or make the led light, and/or visual biff open Claws upon finger/stylus input - I realize there are a few questions in one here but any links, or work in progress or affirmations would be nice. I am just a user, and not such a great researcher. Thank you for reading. |
| 22:31.11 | lcuk | theres already more powerful MIDs around |
| 22:31.15 | Gracana | Also I would go bankrupt, because it would probably cost $800 or something ridiculous *eyes the openmoko* |
| 22:31.42 | yigal | I am using Diablo/os2008 on an n800 |
| 22:32.00 | Gracana | lcuk, anything that approaches or exceeds the iphone in the 200-300 dollar price range? |
| 22:32.08 | Gracana | lcuk, I'm open to suggestions |
| 22:32.10 | moontiger | lcuk, where is the correct place to put icons that my app uses? |
| 22:32.18 | Gracana | lcuk is popular ;) |
| 22:32.23 | lcuk | heh moontiger im not the person to ask |
| 22:32.40 | moontiger | it seems like there are a million places people use |
| 22:32.41 | trev0r | the n810 |
| 22:32.57 | lcuk | Gracana, i like my nokia and it will go fast, i think we cant be waiting too much longer for new generation hardware from nokia |
| 22:33.04 | Gracana | moontiger, maybe /usr/share/pixmaps |
| 22:33.28 | lcuk | and i assume they wont just end the line and price themselves out of the market so i would expect the new to slot in place |
| 22:33.34 | moontiger | /usr/share/pixmaps/<appname> seems to be used by others |
| 22:33.55 | lcuk | moontiger, where will i store the hand drawn sketches from users? |
| 22:33.56 | Gracana | ah, you beat me to it. Yes, it does seem to be the right choice. |
| 22:34.11 | lcuk | how can i make the location multi user (for when i expand) |
| 22:34.41 | moontiger | lcuk, i know its up to me but im trying to get the right way to do things in debian as opposed to the windows way where i would create a folder in the home directory and store them there |
| 22:35.38 | lcuk | moontiger, linux folder tree makes no sense to me either ;) |
| 22:36.05 | moontiger | heh its hilarious ... on windows im a pretty good programmer ... here im like a noob |

| 22:36.57 | yigal | it is surprising that Claws is not seemingly being worked on to replace Simple, no disrespect to the developers of Simple, but for IMAP Claws far and away faster that it. |
| 22:36.58 | Gracana | That will give you some insight as to how things are laid out |
| 22:37.00 | lcuk | but i think im over the worst of it all |

| 23:32.08 | GeneralAntilles | A variety of things |
| 23:32.22 | GeneralAntilles | What's the Section: ? |
| 23:32.38 | yigal | GeneralAntilles: This is good to hear, I hope in the future it matures into a more usable mail client, as I assume do many maemo users. |
| 23:33.00 | GeneralAntilles | yigal, it's certainly not stagnant |
| 23:33.08 | GeneralAntilles | and most people are overly pessimistic and pissy about it. |
| 23:33.17 | GeneralAntilles | It was pushed too early to "final" status, I agree |
| 23:33.20 | lcuk | moontiger, look in your sources and disable any none standard repos |
| 23:33.25 | lcuk | they usually conflict |
| 23:33.35 | GeneralAntilles | They sort of said "it'll be in Diablo" and it really wasn't quite ready at that point. |
| 23:33.47 | LinuxCode | any of you guys noticed your devices being a bit sluggish lately ? |
| 23:33.51 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, "incompatible" typical has to do with the section |
| 23:33.54 | LinuxCode | wiht the latest flash image |
| 23:33.57 | GeneralAntilles | If it's not in User/ |
| 23:34.12 | LinuxCode | the cpu load shows nothing much but it still seems to be unresponsive at times |
| 23:34.14 | moontiger | hmmmmmmmmm |
| 23:34.21 | lcuk | gen, whenever i see that removing any new temp repos solves it.. |
| 23:34.23 | moontiger | i'll check that thnx |
| 23:34.41 | LinuxCode | specially the side panel bar on the left in hildon |
| 23:34.45 | moontiger | im building it on my desktop system using the debian packaging tools |
| 23:34.46 | GeneralAntilles | LinuxCode, corrupt internal card with virtual memory enabled? |
| 23:34.50 | GeneralAntilles | RSS applet enabled? |
| 23:34.56 | LinuxCode | hmmm |
| 23:35.08 | LinuxCode | rss is running but I disabled the autoscroll non-sense |
| 23:35.17 | moontiger | GeneralAntilles, section in the control file says "user/office" |
| 23:35.19 | LinuxCode | thats bastard battery rapist |
| 23:35.21 | LinuxCode | hehe |
| 23:35.27 | LinuxCode | virtual memory could be |
| 23:35.32 | LinuxCode | disables |
| 23:36.06 | GeneralAntilles | It's RSS |
| 23:36.16 | GeneralAntilles | The applet screws everything up |
| 23:36.24 | GeneralAntilles | moontiger, check your sources list, then. |
| 23:36.33 | GeneralAntilles | is so glad that FBReader is finally in Extras. |
| 23:37.02 | moontiger | GeneralAntilles, im not sure what you mean? my desktop system sources? how does that affect anything? |
| 23:37.03 | yigal | GeneralAntilles: This is very good to know. As I wrote earlier the fact that modest is so nicely integrated into maemo is a good thing iff Modest becomes a good mail client and from what you have said there is a good chance that in the near future this indeed will happen. So no pessimism for me, but a hope that it will move quickly to a more mature state. |
| 23:37.11 | LinuxCode | hmmm |
| 23:37.14 | GeneralAntilles | moontiger, no, the catalog on the device. |
| 23:37.17 | lcuk | moontiger, no, on the tablet |
| 23:37.34 | GeneralAntilles | yigal, you can get to most of the devs on #tinymail. |
| 23:37.35 | LinuxCode | might be gpe |
| 23:37.42 | moontiger | ummmmm ok ... im completely confused ... what would be causing that?? |
| 23:38.26 | LinuxCode | i will do some playing around |
| 23:38.35 | LinuxCode | see if I can locallize it the next days |
| 23:38.41 | moontiger | i have to take some repos out of my package list to install my deb? |
| 23:38.51 | lcuk | moontiger, if your package asks for dependencies which are different to whats already on the device it has to go looking for them |
| 23:39.10 | moontiger | i have the app running on my tablet already and i removed the files to test the deb |
| 23:39.19 | moontiger | so all the files it needs are there |
| 23:39.57 | GeneralAntilles | wishes he could remember all the things that can throw that error. |
| 23:40.03 | lcuk | but the installer doesnt and has to recursively check all your dependencies |
| 23:40.05 | GeneralAntilles | I'm blanking at the moment, though. :\ |
| 23:40.33 | moontiger | lucuso what do i have to do? |
| 23:40.38 | moontiger | disable repos? |
| 23:40.46 | moontiger | lcuk i mean |
| 23:40.58 | lcuk | yer - if it doesnt work you can just reenable them |
| 23:41.18 | lcuk | its just an idea which seems to work for me, and besides having a clean repo list makes life simpler |
| 23:41.19 | moontiger | lcuk, you mean randomly disable repos? thats completely stupid |
| 23:41.44 | lcuk | no just those which you got just for single apps or unknown ones added with .install files etc |
| 23:41.59 | yigal | GeneralAntilles: Thank you, everyday getting closer to my n800 is a great experience with this channel, the wiki, forums, and blogs etc.. So many people interested in this project it's just great. |
| 23:42.04 | moontiger | hmmmmm ok i'll try thnx ... but this makes no sense to me at all |
| 23:42.07 | lcuk | stick with nokia default stuff |
| 23:42.32 | moontiger | does this mean anyone with that repo cant install my app? |
| 23:42.57 | lcuk | this means we dont yet know whether it is a repo problem at all |
| 23:43.03 | moontiger | ok |
| 23:47.00 | moontiger | ok so thats not it |
| 23:47.18 | moontiger | incompatible application package is all i get |
