| 03:20.13 | zakkm | is right in the diagram of the N800 |

| 11:20.05 | Stskeeps | ah |
| 11:20.26 | lcuk | melmoth, whats not stopping, ive got very little experience but never had a problem stopping video when i want |
| 11:20.40 | lcuk | (liqbase uses gstreamer camera stuff) |
| 11:20.46 | nano- | Stskeeps: no.. check as in "thanks for the information, now i don't have to google any more" |
| 11:20.53 | Stskeeps | hehe |
| 11:20.55 | melmoth | i know. i read it today to see how you manage to stop it :) |
| 11:21.04 | lcuk | heh |
| 11:21.23 | melmoth | my sample code is here https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/branches/phonehome/src/dsk_mgr.c?revision=414&root=sayhoo&view=markup |
| 11:21.42 | melmoth | the idea is to be able to take a pic when the network connection is up |
| 11:21.46 | lcuk | im extremely torn |
| 11:21.57 | lcuk | bacon == goodness |
| 11:21.59 | melmoth | (the whole stuff is suppoed to be an automatic call home application in case the tabket get stolen) |
| 11:22.11 | lcuk | crispy bacon == making sore tooth sorererer |
| 11:22.29 | lcuk | melmoth, how do you stop the big red light from coming on when the cam is in use |
| 11:22.45 | melmoth | i do not underestand where i am supposed to put the pipeline in a pause state, or when to stop it. |
| 11:23.03 | melmoth | as a result, once the connection is up, it takes a picture, but then, the red led keeps being on |
| 11:23.17 | Mace` | http://www.hist.umn.edu/~ruggles/Approval.htm |
| 11:23.18 | Mace` | wow |
| 11:23.38 | melmoth | lcuk: stoping the big red light to come up is also i problem i have (but a less annoying one :) ) |

| 11:25.56 | lcuk | yeah, theres about a 5 second lead tiem between the light coming on and the stream starting |
| 11:27.34 | lcuk | i dont know how often you expect to run the camera to take a shot, but have you tried closing the stream inside buffer_probe_callback after a successful picture |
| 11:27.51 | lcuk | or do you just want to pause the stream but leave it alive for the duration of your software |
| 11:28.09 | lcuk | (side effect would be camera locked from other software |
| 11:28.15 | melmoth | i want to be able to stop as much ressourcexs as possible once a pic is taken |
| 11:29.48 | *** join/#maemo Free_maN (n=Free_maN@unaffiliated/freeman) |
| 11:30.55 | melmoth | Hmm; let see if i can close the stream in buffer_probe_callback |
| 11:32.00 | lcuk | if i was doing this i would try to break the camera and gps and main controlling code into different modules and have them as call once functional items and not try to mingle everything |

| 12:23.53 | solmumaha | dneary: i think games work, movies not so much |
| 12:24.07 | lcuk | well dvds have always been regionlocked |
| 12:24.42 | dneary | lcuk, solmumaha: Thanks |

| 12:26.20 | johnx | I wonder if they manage to region lock the DVD drive on it when it's booted to linux... |
| 12:26.21 | tibob | hi |
| 12:27.20 | lcuk | johnx depends if the shipping dvd software honours the region, most legit soft will - with a nudge and a wink to unlock |
| 12:27.23 | Mace` | think i'm going to buy an 8G SD to boot centos |
| 12:27.45 | Mace` | the cheapest sata drives newegg had were 80G and cost $30 |
| 12:27.55 | Mace` | i was hoping to find something for $10 .. don't need that much space |
| 12:28.01 | johnx | lcuk, as far as I know there aren't really any commonly available commercial "region-honoring" DVD playing softwares for linux |
| 12:28.18 | *** part/#maemo pi8iki (n=ftou@82.153.18.105) |
| 12:28.28 | lcuk | PowerDVD for Linux |
| 12:28.40 | johnx | huh |
| 12:28.46 | johnx | I wonder if anyone uses it on purpose |
| 12:29.00 | Mace` | haha |
| 12:29.02 | Mace` | i doubt it |
| 12:29.18 | Mace` | i didn't even know there was a powerdvd for linux |
| 12:29.24 | lcuk | johnx, depends if its part of the OOB experience or not |
| 12:29.26 | Mace` | just like i was shocked to find out there was linux nero |
| 12:29.37 | lcuk | thats a petty old lead i remember, i havent looked recently |
| 12:30.24 | Mace` | i returned something to a store on friday and i'm pissed that i did because if i did it thurs instead of being so lazy my money would be back already |
| 12:30.26 | lcuk | as much as we are hackers, we have to remember people are willing to pay for commercially supported products |
| 12:30.50 | Mace` | lcuk - especially on macs |
| 12:30.58 | Mace` | have you ever seen teh software people try to sell ? |
| 12:31.09 | Mace` | some of it is like "why the fuck would anybody buy that" |
| 12:31.10 | lcuk | especially now the netbooks are taking off, its something dramatic that has to change |
| 12:31.29 | Mace` | if you do a google search for ssh |
| 12:31.34 | lcuk | preinstalled with linux people buying them from the stores expect certain things to work as standard |
| 12:31.39 | Mace` | you will find "ssh solutions" that cost around $500 |
| 12:31.46 | johnx | lcuk, not on linux, unless it's available from the start. DVD playing is pretty much a click away in ubuntu, IIRC |
| 12:31.51 | lcuk | yes, like commercial vnc type services |
| 12:32.01 | lcuk | people dont wanna mess and will happily pay if they work |
| 12:32.10 | Mace` | well.. commercial vnc services have encryption usually |
| 12:32.25 | Mace` | which i could see the reasoning behind wanting |
| 12:32.27 | lcuk | its more the central server and router bypassing that appeals |
| 12:32.30 | dneary | lcuk: Looks like there's still NTSC/PAL issues with the PS3 |
| 12:32.41 | lcuk | ahhh dneary, odd in a digital world |
| 12:32.41 | Mace` | but the ssh solutions that cost 500-1000 |
| 12:32.47 | Mace` | that's just a scam :) |
| 12:32.57 | lcuk | but its secure! |
| 12:33.08 | johnx | I could never trust closed source un-vetted encryption... |
| 12:33.16 | Mace` | me neither |
| 12:33.26 | Mace` | funny thing is.. it probably uses the same sshkeygen :) |
| 12:33.42 | Mace` | all it is is a front end for ssh... and it costs 400+ |
| 12:33.55 | Mace` | you can find a ton of them out there... it's a big ass scam |
| 12:34.00 | Mace` | like cert authorities |
| 12:34.05 | lcuk | and you get an SLA and agents to support it without ever having to hit the console yourself |
| 12:34.08 | Mace` | i think that's the biggest scam of them all |
| 12:34.22 | Stskeeps | johnx: deblet lasts 12 hours in idle on full battery btw |
| 12:34.33 | johnx | Stskeeps, idle with wifi off or on? |
| 12:34.38 | Stskeeps | wifi off, bluetooth off |
| 12:34.44 | johnx | ick |
| 12:34.48 | Mace` | so 2 hours with it on? :) |
| 12:34.51 | johnx | I wonder what keeps it ticking |
| 12:34.51 | dneary | lcuk: Sure - but the input to the telly is still analog, no? |
| 12:35.01 | Stskeeps | this is without cpu usage applet too |
| 12:35.08 | lcuk | dneary, depends on the telly i suppose |
| 12:35.11 | dneary | lcuk: Maybe over HDMI it's not an issue? |
| 12:35.28 | Stskeeps | johnx: then again 12 hour idle time for a much larger laptop is also impressive ;) |
| 12:35.37 | lcuk | i wouldnt try a next gen HD console unless i had a next gen HD telly ;) |
| 12:35.46 | lcuk | huggles his wii |
| 12:35.49 | johnx | Stskeeps, true enough. |
| 12:36.07 | Mace` | wii does 720p |
| 12:36.09 | Mace` | ;) |
| 12:36.14 | Mace` | oh wait... maybe not |
| 12:36.19 | johnx | Mace`, uhm no :) |
| 12:36.23 | johnx | 480p I think |
| 12:36.23 | solmumaha | dneary: send me an ntsc game and i'll test |
| 12:36.31 | Mace` | it sure doesn't.. it does 480p |
| 12:36.32 | Mace` | yeah haha |
| 12:36.33 | Mace` | that sucks |
| 12:36.35 | lcuk | it might upscale to it, but its not natively support i dont tihnk |
| 12:36.40 | johnx | 's wii is now region free :) |
| 12:36.40 | dneary | solmumaha: muaahaha |
| 12:36.42 | Mace` | no.. it doesn't |
| 12:36.49 | lcuk | dneary, send me an ntsc ps3 and ill test it |

| 13:39.50 | qwerty12_N800 | lcuk, lol, i'm always breaking things :p |
| 13:39.56 | qwerty12_N800 | johnx, how? :p |
| 13:40.41 | johnx | i really don't know. I'm not the one who broke 4 (?!) ac adapters for one device |
| 13:40.48 | lcuk | johnx, you've gotta let him off, hes young he must tug on it all day long |
| 13:40.58 | johnx | gah |
| 13:41.55 | johnx | only power source I had die on me was a craptastic pelican external PSP battery. made a whine, smokey smell, then wouldn't charge. like 3 months later there was a recall on them |
| 13:42.00 | qwerty12_N800 | johnx, my sony ericsson charger works and the charger for my broken n-gage :p |
| 13:42.30 | qwerty12_N800 | lcuk, maybe in the north, yeh? :p |
| 13:42.54 | lcuk | oooer johnx, i have to say though i was worried about the charger for 810 when i got it, its a very small needle and at such an odd angle, my old pda had a proper cradle |
| 13:42.56 | johnx | is the plug physically breaking? or is some electronic component burning out? |
| 13:43.28 | johnx | lcuk, agreed. I feel a lot better about the PSP/zaurus power adapter |
| 13:43.34 | qwerty12_N800 | johnx, burning out :/ |
| 13:43.50 | johnx | qwerty12_N800, ah, nevermind then about "doing it wrong" |
| 13:43.50 | lcuk | have you got a surge protector on your mains side? |
| 13:43.57 | johnx | do you live in an old house? |
| 13:44.22 | qwerty12_N800 | lcuk, no, not upstairs anyway |
| 13:44.28 | nano- | I have a build-prompt like this: [SB2 maemo diablo41_armel] daniel@purplehaze vala-0.3.5 $ |
| 13:44.31 | lcuk | might be an idea to get one |
| 13:44.38 | nano- | But I can't do install as I have no perms nowhere.. |
| 13:45.05 | nano- | make install leads to permission denied, and sudo make install leads to sudo: must be setuid root |
| 13:45.12 | nano- | Anyone knows what to do? |
| 13:45.13 | johnx | lcuk, do surge protectors do anything to smooth out bumps in the power or do they just have a fast-acting fuse/breaker? |
| 13:45.20 | qwerty12_N800 | johnx, i'd say so but the electrics were rewired to make that modern |
| 13:46.06 | johnx | qwerty12_N800, by a hobo with a glass bottle in a paper bag who pushed his tools in a stolen grocery cart? |
| 13:47.14 | qwerty12_N800 | johnx, lol, no :p. my brother's ac-4x that he keeps upstairs still works :/ |
| 13:47.30 | lcuk | johnx, depends on the model i believe, but most should regulate and smooth the input to ensure nothing surges through. some have larger diodes and components to handle larger variations, but they are heading towards UPS type devices then |
| 13:47.42 | johnx | qwerty12_N800, different outlet than you use, right? |
| 13:48.05 | qwerty12_N800 | johnx, yeah |
| 13:48.20 | lcuk | we cannot rule out the qwerty factor in all of this, i bet he has same trouble with the christmas tree lights |
| 13:48.23 | johnx | nano-, maybe fakeroot make install or change the PREFIX when using configure? |
| 13:48.51 | johnx | lcuk, ugh, I hate dealing with the fuses on those things...maddening |
| 13:51.00 | lcuk | heh johnx, the last ups i had the misfortune to have to deal with the customer had sat there for about 3 weeks wondering why it had a big flashing red light on it, then wondered why their server went down |
| 13:51.08 | qwerty12_N800 | lcuk, i'll try out that acmonitor i modded with the idea I stole from you :p. i'lll laugh if my implementation works because i remember how long your code for it was :p |
| 13:51.09 | lcuk | "i thought it was flashing to tell me it was working" |
| 13:51.28 | lcuk | my code wasnt long, ive still got it somewhere |
| 13:52.00 | lcuk | it was only 3 minor functions to do the transfer, but the acmon code was integration into the existing program using the existing methods |

| 13:54.51 | lcuk | nothin, i just havent installed it |
| 13:55.04 | nikosapi | Hey, is there a way to access the "zoom" buttons (F7&F8) while the device is locked? |
| 13:55.29 | lcuk | nikosapi, perhaps the term "locked" means something to you that it doesnt to others |
| 13:55.52 | lcuk | though if you use the low level xsp library you CAN still access uncalibrated touchscreen events ;) |
| 13:55.52 | nikosapi | heh |
| 13:55.54 | qwerty12_N800 | oh lol, mine stopped working suddenly and it took me a while to figure it out |
| 13:56.33 | nikosapi | lcuk: If you've ever used an archos, even when it "locked" you can still access the volume controls |
| 13:56.54 | nikosapi | it's really handy instead of having to unlock, change the volume then lock again |
| 13:57.12 | nikosapi | and those buttons really don't get accidentally pressed |
| 13:57.17 | lcuk | hmmm i thought headphones had volume on them |
| 13:57.21 | lcuk | might be mistaken |
| 13:57.26 | nikosapi | not mine... |
| 13:57.38 | lcuk | ahhh yeah, its my missuses |
| 13:58.28 | lcuk | nikosapi, it does sound like a quantry though, not sure if you can get at the low low level stuff, but x11 blocks it |
| 13:58.42 | nikosapi | darn |
| 13:58.52 | qwerty12_N800 | that's not a bad idea actually... |
| 13:58.54 | lcuk | i only know because i was runnin my program happily one day (very touch screen oriented) and only when i pressed [esc] did i realise it was still locked |
| 13:59.34 | nikosapi | hehe, well that's kind of the opposite of what I need :) |
| 14:00.09 | lcuk | yeah lol, but there may be a low level entry point somewhere under x that you can poll |
| 14:01.15 | qwerty12_N800 | is looking at a more dubious method of doing it. those who know me will know what i'm looking at |
| 14:01.18 | lcuk | i mean - SOMETHING is monitoring the keypresses - its the thing which brings up the "slide [| ] to unlock" |
| 14:01.44 | lcuk | qwerty12_N800, do you want the diff between mine and the original |
| 14:01.48 | nikosapi | right |
| 14:02.09 | nano- | johnx: using fakeroot... /bin/mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/include/vala-1.0': Read-only file system |

| 15:33.00 | whodat | so.. the n810 has two memory cards in it? one thats like 256meg (where the os/apps are installed) and one thats 2gig? |
| 15:33.53 | Stskeeps | whodat: 256mb internal flash, 2gig internal SD card, and possibility to put a SD card in externally |
| 15:34.21 | johnx | hmm...my a-data sd card is toast I guess :| |
| 15:35.29 | whodat | stskeeps: could I move like /usr to the 2gig internal..mount it there? so i could put apps on there instead? i know you can put the entire os there but that seems overkill. |
| 15:35.53 | johnx | whodat, it's way more complicated to just put /usr there compared to putting the whole OS there |
| 15:36.23 | johnx | you lose a lot by having it split up and don't gain anything |
| 15:36.23 | whodat | maybe.. but it makes more sense logicly heh |

| 15:36.51 | whodat | on ubuntu i mount /home to a seperate partition for instance |
| 15:36.53 | johnx | from an embedded systems perspective, it makes less sense |
| 15:37.27 | whodat | ahh. well, okay... ...why? ;) |
| 15:38.31 | johnx | basically, if you're going to be powering the sd card the whole time, and have files mounted off it, you might as well keep two completely separate OSes installed for redundancy |
| 15:39.04 | whodat | actually I think it would have made more sense to just drop the 256mb on the device and install the OS to the 2gig internal. although, okay. its probably slower than flash. |
| 15:39.30 | johnx | I think that was mostly for backwards compatibility with the n800 |
| 15:39.42 | whodat | so its not slower? |
| 15:39.49 | whodat | flash vs internal sd card |
| 15:40.07 | johnx | well, the flash uses a compressed filesystem, so it's probably going to be slower |
| 15:40.15 | whodat | wow |
| 15:40.17 | johnx | I don't think the internal sd card is a hi-speed model though |
| 15:40.53 | whodat | maybe i should just move the whole OS then. this 256meg limit sucks |

| 16:37.52 | xorAxAx | its not in chinook (extras) |
| 16:39.14 | johnx | for diablo it's in the tools repo |
| 16:39.30 | johnx | for chinook, check gronmayer.com/it |
| 16:43.02 | whodat | john: i messed with those settings, no luck. |
| 16:43.08 | whodat | thats the first place i went lol |
| 16:44.39 | whodat | i installed canola, but when launching streams from the browser, the default player is still used :( |
| 16:44.56 | whodat | which doesn't suppor the stream i am trying to play, but i know canola does. |

| 18:20.10 | lcuk | nice :) like i said it was just a test at this end, obviously it can go a little further now |
| 18:20.51 | qwerty12_N800 | :) |
| 18:20.58 | lcuk | i did want to do one other thing - which was add a whole set of options for Locked/Unlocked |
| 18:21.39 | lcuk | ie battery.locked == powersave, battery.unlocked == performance |
| 18:22.20 | qwerty12_N800 | that does sound useful :) |
| 18:22.34 | lcuk | + charging.locked == performance, charing.unlocked == performance |
| 18:23.08 | lcuk | but it was just a bit too far, its all profiles and would require an interface to configure correctly before users get the wrong end of the stick |
| 18:24.06 | lcuk | i might see what would be needed to do the background code and see if we can tie into advanced brightness ;) |

| 19:46.50 | lcuk | zakkm, when i saw skype advertised with n810 and saw it had a camera i did same as you |

| 19:47.08 | zakkm | I used to own a N770 but i got WSOD.. |
| 19:47.12 | moontiger | the skype devs say its not possible witht he video codec they use |

| 19:51.32 | moontiger | yes it does |
| 19:51.37 | lcuk | like the mapping things on phones are cutdown and put routing onto central server cos the phones cant handle it |
| 19:51.42 | zakkm | THen it wouldnt be much of a hassle would it? |

| 19:51.58 | cyrus__ | Stskeeps - http://pastebin.com/m398d9f41 |

| 19:52.17 | moontiger | lcuk, there have been many already |
| 19:52.29 | cyrus__ | could there be a problem with the md5sum of the nit-env-lxde package? |

| 19:52.40 | lcuk | moontiger, not really we see lots of desktop programs "work", sure they arent 60fps crysis things |
| 19:52.41 | Stskeeps | cyrus__: did it mention anything about that? |
| 19:52.42 | zakkm | Video chat isnt that much cpu-intensive is it? |
| 19:52.53 | zakkm | I thought its just internet bandwidth intensive |
| 19:53.00 | mavhc | it's way more intensive |

| 19:53.04 | Robot101 | zakkm: yes, it is. video encoding takes up huge amounts of cpu |
| 19:53.05 | moontiger | it has to be compressed realtime |
| 19:53.13 | zakkm | o |

| 20:31.30 | lcuk | qwerty12_N800, no not yet, few things need doing, liqbase.net has 0.0.4 just updated a few minutes ago |
| 20:31.51 | zakkm | Also use querty12 speed rotation app. It will give you rotation and speed your Nxx to 400mhz. Hope this helps. <--- found this on forum .. is that for Deblet only or OS2007 ? |
| 20:31.57 | lcuk | i just had a thought about a few things before announcing |

| 20:34.05 | qwerty12_N800 | lcuk, k, thanks |
| 20:34.11 | lcuk | so? if it was done back then that generally means it can be done now.. |
| 20:34.42 | zakkm | they say no. |
| 20:34.45 | qwerty12_N800 | zakkm, i had an app? :p. lol, jott keeps the rotation + 48 mhz kernel updated for diablo |
| 20:34.52 | zakkm | oh no |
| 20:35.13 | lcuk | 48mhz killed my memory card, its not applicable for all |
| 20:35.15 | zakkm | I dont know, i figured your here so i should ask.. it was on a thread about slow maemo |
| 20:35.24 | zakkm | what does the 48mhz kernel do exactly? |
| 20:35.39 | qwerty12_N800 | ~bitchslap shitty python media players |
| 20:35.40 | infobot | ACTION beats the sh*t out of shitty python media players |
| 20:35.43 | zakkm | Oh, does rotation work on the n800 ? |
| 20:35.49 | lcuk | basically an overclock on the memory interfadce |
| 20:35.52 | GAN800 | outpo.st/rotate |
| 20:35.59 | zakkm | so its good to use? |
| 20:36.01 | zakkm | performance boost? |
| 20:36.10 | GAN800 | depends on the card |
| 20:36.11 | lcuk | can be if the memory card supports it, but not all do |
| 20:36.21 | zakkm | So ill buy a card that does :) |
| 20:36.29 | GAN800 | For the vast majority of people it'll be a slight boost. |
| 20:36.59 | GAN800 | For an extremely small minority it'll prevent the card from being used. |
| 20:38.05 | zakkm | eek |
| 20:38.09 | zakkm | best not to use then? |
| 20:38.13 | qwerty12_N800 | had an elcheapo 1gb card which 48mhz kernel didn't work on. got an 8gb card and it works fine |
| 20:40.15 | zakkm | I'll be gettting a 2GB card. |
| 20:41.01 | lcuk | the difference in speed isnt great, get whatever, if it works, great, if not - you wont miss much |
| 20:41.19 | zakkm | I was planning to use SD instead of internal memory though |
| 20:41.37 | lcuk | and? same applies |
| 20:42.06 | lcuk | ie not worth puttin lotsa brainpower into ;) |
| 20:42.58 | Stskeeps | cyrus__: should work now :) sorry, i screwed up, turns out Debian doesn't have a handy /etc/sudoers.d and update-sudoers. |

| 21:26.58 | lcuk | vnc is vnc then, obviously lower res screen than usual, but it pans and can be rotated |

| 21:27.01 | BULLE_ | zakkm: you dont get stellar performance from vnc client on a n800 |

| 21:27.49 | qwerty12_N800 | lardman, thanks :) |

| 21:28.07 | zakkm | Over local networked im thinking too |
| 21:28.17 | BULLE_ | zakkm: on the other hand, if you run some app eating 1024mb ram on the server, then, well, that wont run on the n800, so then its way faster |
| 21:28.33 | zakkm | nah just normal usage |
| 21:28.39 | Proteous | the most annoying part of using rdesktop and vnc on the tablet is trying to manipulate tiny things on the screen with the stylus |
| 21:28.40 | BULLE_ | zakkm: but imho its not worth running say firefox over vnc, or similar, in order to get faster webbrowser |
| 21:28.44 | Proteous | hard to be accurate |
| 21:28.58 | BULLE_ | Proteous: yeah, and also using programs that are designed for extensive keyboard use |
| 21:29.00 | zakkm | ah |
| 21:29.37 | mavhc | I don't find rdp that bad |
| 21:29.44 | BULLE_ | well, its not bad, its useable, but i do prefer running stuff local on the n800 instead of via an rdp session |
| 21:29.52 | BULLE_ | atleast for stuff that the n800 can handle |
| 21:30.00 | Proteous | actualy, since I finaly got a cable and updated my n810, the unintentionaly double tapping problem has gone away mostly, that helps a bit |
| 21:30.01 | zakkm | Trying to find little ways to speedup my n800 usage. |
| 21:30.04 | zakkm | what about like |

| 21:30.16 | zakkm | and i wanted to read it in the living room |
| 21:30.21 | zakkm | would the performance be good enough? |
| 21:30.31 | lcuk | vnc is not useful to speedup apps, but its useful in its original intent, to gain access to a remote system |
| 21:30.50 | BULLE_ | lcuk: exactly |
| 21:30.53 | lcuk | zakkm, why not just share doc on the network and view live though.. |
| 21:31.15 | BULLE_ | i use vnc and openvpn when im on the move |

| 21:39.23 | Proteous | I got mine as an open box from amazon warehouse for $325 |
| 21:39.33 | zakkm | wsod = white screen of death |
| 21:39.46 | zakkm | evantually the N770's stay white.. when you turn it on.. making it useless / garbage |
| 21:39.47 | zakkm | no way to fix |

| 21:40.12 | zakkm | the LCD itself i think |
| 21:40.18 | BULLE_ | i see |
| 21:40.20 | zakkm | the thing that connects the LCD to the motherboard or soemthing |

| 21:40.40 | zakkm | w.e nobody fixed it |

| 21:59.05 | zakkm | like adding attachments to your email? |
| 22:00.05 | kpel | never tried attaching anything. but i think i did receive email with attachhments |
| 22:00.09 | Stskeeps | has DSME come out yet? |
| 22:00.09 | Stskeeps | :P |
| 22:00.24 | ShadowJK_ | can't open source the connectivity thing, it's better than NetworkManager ;p |
| 22:00.28 | Stskeeps | true |
| 22:00.43 | qwerty12_N800 | oh for sure. nm is a tosser |
| 22:00.45 | Stskeeps | and that's the scary part |
| 22:01.04 | zakkm | Using canola to play a song? does it take significantly more battery life than the builtin media player? |
| 22:02.08 | kpel | no idea |
| 22:02.24 | kpel | btw, you don't work for the android team, do you? :P |
| 22:02.32 | zakkm | me? |
| 22:02.42 | zakkm | Besides its owned by Google, i really know nothing about Android |
| 22:02.46 | lcuk | no, hes nokia market research |
| 22:03.00 | lcuk | checkin if we know our product ;) |
| 22:03.07 | zakkm | haha |
| 22:03.15 | cyrus__ | Stskeeps - as for your question..yes an N810 |
| 22:03.28 | zakkm | Canola looks so good :) |
| 22:03.37 | Stskeeps | cyrus__: alright |
| 22:04.10 | kpel | i find it a bit slow and it takes up a lot of precious storage. too bad we can't select to install apps on the removable memory card |
| 22:04.39 | zakkm | does it get faster with release? |
| 22:04.48 | *** join/#maemo ttmrichter (n=ttmricht@59.172.140.193) |
| 22:04.49 | zakkm | like overtime will it get faster? |
| 22:05.03 | lcuk | kpel, technically as a simple solution you could symlink any part of the root fs to a memory card |
| 22:05.09 | zakkm | :O its skinnibe |
| 22:05.15 | lcuk | i believe.. |
| 22:05.32 | zakkm | wouldnt you mount the SD into the directory? not symlink ? |
| 22:05.44 | qwerty12_N800 | just be sure the sd is mounted in time when booting... |
| 22:06.12 | lcuk | heh |
| 22:06.17 | cyrus__ | Stskeeps - it has been going for a bit now and just sitting at Retrieving adduser |
| 22:06.26 | cyrus__ | Stskeeps - anything I should be lookign for here? |
| 22:06.32 | zakkm | symlink would still install to the internal wouldnt it? |
| 22:06.39 | zakkm | just let your SD apps work too ? |
| 22:06.43 | zakkm | but nothing would install to it? |
| 22:07.03 | kpel | lcuk: true. and after every os upgrade i would have to repeat this workaround |
| 22:07.23 | lardman | I think the point was to symlink something under /usr to the memory card |
| 22:07.33 | lardman | therefore things would be installed there automatically |
| 22:07.46 | cyrus__ | Stskeeps - since you said you did something with sudoers I was wondering if maybe this has some affect on the adduser package |
| 22:07.55 | zakkm | isn't it mount SD to /usr. .. though.. rather than symlink SD with internal /usr |
| 22:08.01 | kpel | yes, and after flashing a new os image the symlinks would be gone |
| 22:08.25 | zakkm | but if you symlink .. it would install to both places.. |
| 22:08.27 | kpel | zakkm: by default the SD is mounted i |
| 22:08.30 | zakkm | if you mount.. it would only install to SD |
| 22:08.32 | kpel | in /media/mmc1 |
| 22:08.38 | zakkm | yes but you can also mount it into /usr |
| 22:08.41 | Stskeeps | cyrus__: ah, no, adduser and debootstrap comes before we do anything deblet-specific |
| 22:08.48 | Stskeeps | cyrus__: right now you're just installing Debian for ARMEL |
| 22:09.04 | Stskeeps | after that phase, we put packages on top to make it usable (ie, not a blank screen :P) |
| 22:09.06 | lardman | zakkm: if you symlink to /usr/bin, lib, etc., it will only be installed to the directories you symlinked |
| 22:09.22 | lardman | but yes, mounting it is another option |
| 22:09.28 | lcuk | sparks debates with his wayward tongue and incorrect syntax. |
| 22:09.53 | kpel | zakkm: if you mount the card on /usr you lose all the default contents of /usr until you unmount the card |
| 22:09.56 | cyrus__ | Stskeeps - ok...i will leave it for a bit and see if it continues or just sits there |
| 22:09.56 | lcuk | at least you lot knew what i meant even if i got the details wrong ;) |
| 22:10.00 | zakkm | yes |
| 22:10.06 | zakkm | thats why you clone /usr into the SD first |
| 22:10.22 | zakkm | then the internal memory /usr will be empty |
| 22:10.24 | zakkm | wont take any space |
| 22:10.28 | zakkm | and you mount to the SD into /usr |
| 22:10.39 | Stskeeps | heads to sleep |
| 22:10.47 | lcuk | Stskeeps, good night :) |
| 22:10.47 | lardman | You'd have to check that the device can boot without /usr anyway (theoretically it should work, but you never know) |
| 22:10.53 | zakkm | sure SD will always be used, but isnt that what you wanted? no space in/usr ? "unlimited" storage in /usr |
| 22:11.04 | zakkm | SD will alwy sneed to be in* |
| 22:11.10 | kpel | but this way you don't use the sd to extend the storage space but to replace internal storage with external |
| 22:11.19 | zakkm | yes |
| 22:11.23 | lcuk | zakkm, aint that like old computers needing to leave a certain floppy in |
| 22:11.25 | zakkm | isnt that what the question was? |
| 22:11.31 | lcuk | thats not exactly a big deal :0 |
| 22:11.40 | lcuk | ) even |
| 22:11.48 | lardman | extending is hard without symlinking each app individually a la ipkg-link, or using a special fs |
| 22:11.50 | zakkm | symlink will require space in both internal and external ... cloning and mounting wont.. |
| 22:12.07 | lardman | zakkm: symlink the directory! |
| 22:12.12 | zakkm | ah w.e lol |
| 22:12.57 | kpel | or convince nokia to add a reasonable amount of flash memory instead of having users jump through hoops ;) |
| 22:13.23 | zakkm | or convince nokia to make maemo smaller |
| 22:13.29 | zakkm | so theres more room |
| 22:13.32 | zakkm | that way we wont need a new NIT -.- |
| 22:13.42 | kpel | yes. only bash and vim should be allowed! |
| 22:13.51 | kpel | j/k |
| 22:14.10 | zakkm | lol |
| 22:14.13 | zakkm | there are ways :P |
| 22:14.17 | kpel | (who needs vim after all when you have cat) |
| 22:14.35 | zakkm | who needs vim when you have a pencil and paper :D lol |
| 22:14.43 | lcuk | im vanishin for a bit anyway, catch you lot later on |

| 22:16.20 | zakkm | qwerty12_N800: how well does mpd in terms of battery life? |
| 22:17.15 | qwerty12_N800 | zakkm, no idea, i never really test for battery life but cpu usage and mem usage with mpd are very low |
| 22:17.45 | qwerty12_N800 | kpel, i prefer walkman phones :) |

| 22:18.12 | zakkm | qwerty12_N800: back in my gentoo days, I used mpd and sonata. |
| 22:18.20 | zakkm | but i was curious about using mpd on my n800 .. |
| 22:18.25 | zakkm | and using my home pc as a mpd server |
| 22:19.46 | qwerty12_N800 | sure, it works. i use mmpc + mpd on the tablet and sonata on the pc for controlling the n800. but sonata is available for maemo too |
| 22:20.03 | zakkm | yeah i was just going to say i would probably use sonata |
| 22:20.12 | zakkm | I used it for PC and the maemo port looks really goodd |
| 22:20.31 | zakkm | I was just curious on how well it compares to the actual media player builtin app |
| 22:20.46 | zakkm | if i would get better battery on sonata/mpd vs builtin media player app |
| 22:21.57 | qwerty12_N800 | the mpd compile for tablets is pretty old so i took the time to compile the latest mpd and recompile all the audio libs to use the vfp etc but i lost all my debs :/ |
| 22:22.53 | zakkm | Haha |
| 22:23.12 | zakkm | I used 0.13 for PC i believe. |
| 22:23.46 | qwerty12_N800 | yeah, that's the one i compiled for maemo. you can get 0.12 from the garage |
| 22:24.41 | zakkm | Nice. |
| 22:24.57 | zakkm | you try sonata on the nit? |
| 22:25.38 | qwerty12_N800 | yep, works well except for slow startup time. but i blame it being in python for that. |
| 22:25.58 | qwerty12_N800 | (this was with python-launcher running) |
| 22:26.21 | zakkm | eek |
| 22:26.40 | zakkm | whats mmpc like? never used it/ havent heard much about it |
| 22:28.05 | qwerty12_N800 | it's ok, i like it, looks a bit like the built in player. it's fast but playlist/library management skills leave a lot to be desired |
| 22:29.09 | zakkm | This might sound dumb but can i have mpd on my pc at home.. and make it stream music to my nokia NIT ? |
| 22:29.14 | zakkm | and music outputs from my nokia? |
| 22:30.01 | qwerty12_N800 | http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19059 |
| 22:30.13 | qwerty12_N800 | sounds like what you wa |
| 22:30.17 | qwerty12_N800 | nt |
| 22:30.20 | zakkm | no |
| 22:30.28 | zakkm | i was tihknig being in school . .and having my home music collection. |
| 22:30.54 | zakkm | not using the n800 as a soundcard for pc |
| 22:31.22 | zakkm | so like sonata on my n800 shows my home music collection.. and when i play a song.. it "streams" from my home pc |
| 22:31.26 | zakkm | and plays on my nokia. |
| 22:31.28 | qwerty12_N800 | you could try the icecast feature of mpd |
| 22:31.37 | zakkm | isnt that just radio? |
| 22:31.56 | qwerty12_N800 | no, it can stream your music |
