| 04:17.51 | pupnik | i want to send the music playing from my laptop or PC to my 770 connected to the home stereo, while also allowing the 770 to play locally |
| 04:18.28 | pupnik | ponders what is best solution for that |
| 04:19.17 | johnx | do you plan to remote control the 770? |
| 04:23.04 | pupnik | johnx: well. right now i play stuff on the 770 by ssh-ing to it |
| 04:23.29 | pupnik | but someone sends me a mp3 link on my laptop.. then i think well... i'd like to route that audio to the 770 |
| 04:24.13 | pupnik | so i guess the level would be a network-able sound server akin to esd |
| 04:24.14 | johnx | routing audio is difficult, but running an mpd server on the 770 and mounting a share on your desktop would be easier |
| 04:24.26 | pupnik | mpd? |
| 04:24.42 | johnx | http://musicpd.org |
| 04:24.49 | johnx | basically it's just the backend of a music player |
| 04:25.02 | johnx | then there are a ton of "clients" that connect to it and tell it to play music |
| 04:25.40 | johnx | the music has to be on an fs that the daemon can see though |
| 04:26.28 | pupnik | seems like a good approach for some things. |
| 04:27.11 | pupnik | but i'd prefer the more general "send my sound to computer 1, 3 and 5" |
| 04:27.35 | johnx | well, the reason I suggested mpd was that it's a heck of a lot easier :) |
| 04:27.59 | pupnik | yes |

| 04:28.13 | johnx | a remote esd server should do the trick I guess |
| 04:29.10 | pupnik | ah esd does it |
| 04:29.16 | pupnik | http://developer.gnome.org/doc/whitepapers/esd/ |
| 04:29.51 | johnx | I wonder if the 770 has the bandwidth to handle it... |
| 04:31.19 | pupnik | 44.1khz stereo needs 1.4 mb/s |
| 04:33.22 | pupnik | i could also set up icecast mp3/ogg streaming on each source computer, then have a client on the homestereo770 listen permanently to each source computer's stream |
| 04:34.17 | pupnik | icecast+darkice... will stream anything going over your local soundcard |
| 04:34.39 | johnx | that's an interesting idea |
| 04:34.49 | johnx | is that 1.4MB/s or 1.4Mb/s BTW? |
| 04:34.55 | johnx | <- lazy :) |

| 04:39.21 | pupnik | yeah i'd prefer to avoid the mp3/ogg encoding if posisble. so maybe only allow one network esd client to the 770 at a time |
| 04:40.22 | johnx | an esd server can have as many clients as you want as long as the bandwidth is there |
| 04:40.48 | pupnik | yar |
| 04:41.02 | johnx | it's just that all the sound will get mixed and sound horrific if two people play mp3s at the same time :D |
| 04:42.28 | pupnik | yup |
| 04:42.46 | pupnik | the mpd and xmms2 solutions are good if all you want is to play from a collection though |
| 04:43.00 | pupnik | but i'd also like to send the sound there, if i'm playing a movie from a laptop |
| 04:43.05 | johnx | a combination would work well too :) |
| 04:43.11 | johnx | no reason to go with just one |
| 04:43.14 | pupnik | also true |
| 04:43.50 | pupnik | would also be nice to have the 770 scroll the songtitle in a huge font |
| 04:44.30 | johnx | there's a couple mpd clients that will do that I think |
| 04:44.39 | johnx | like mpdosd or something |
| 04:45.24 | pupnik | ty, this is good stuff |
| 04:46.06 | johnx | sure, I'm actually thinking of a use for my zaurus 5500 at the same time :) |
| 04:47.05 | pupnik | then we can also hack this into a mpd/xmms2 client "Querying a database using open source voice control software" http://www.linux.com/feature/134671 |
| 04:47.57 | johnx | on the mpc side you could do the whole thing in a shell script with the "mpc" client |

| 06:43.35 | Stskeeps | i wonder about nature of maemo gtk - should it be a drop in replacement for gtk, with certain optimizations that make also normal apps work a little more better on mobile ui, with some extensions to add in for mobile |
| 06:43.47 | Stskeeps | and then we file bugs on when it collides with normal wms/etc |

| 06:48.29 | melmoth | Stskeeps: as far as i have underestood gtk app will work on maemo, hildon is just a layer of specific widget build on top of gtk |
| 06:48.59 | johnx | melmoth, the problem is that maemo's version of gtk is actually different and somewhat incompatible with upstream gtk |

| 08:28.07 | StsN800 | RST38h, the user should be easily able to change to 'unstable' i guess |
| 08:28.22 | RST38h | On the other hand, Jaaksi is right: open source only makes sense when there are people willing to work on it |

| 08:39.50 | GeneralAntilles | One Wal-Mart location certainly isn't vital to Wal-Mart's success, so you mean to say it isn't commercial? |

| 08:40.47 | cityLights | I think that the file in-charge of the programs on my device got messed up, which file is it? |
| 08:41.11 | cityLights | johnx, I fixed the problem with the email |
| 08:41.29 | cityLights | and I made space in my root file system |
| 08:41.44 | cityLights | I use diablo and boot of the SD |
| 08:41.49 | johnx | ah, ok, the menu is generated out of .desktop files in /usr/share/applications/hildon |
| 08:42.00 | johnx | also it might need to be regenerated ... somehow |
| 08:42.05 | cityLights | how may I recover it? |
| 08:42.30 | johnx | GeneralAntilles, did you ever manage to fix your menu or did you end up reflashing |
| 08:42.32 | cityLights | also, what files are backed up when using the provided backup program? is it just /home? |
| 08:42.42 | GeneralAntilles | johnx, yerga fixed it for me somehow |
| 08:42.47 | GeneralAntilles | Though I lost all my menu positions. |
| 08:43.02 | johnx | cityLights, yes, and some of your settings, such as repositories in /etc/ |

| 09:06.46 | GeneralAntilles | Ahaha |
| 09:06.47 | Jaffa | And I really think calendars fit into it a whole lot worse than they do into "Office". And, similarly, IRC clients, email clients etc. *should* be in "Network" |
| 09:06.53 | GeneralAntilles | Check the # app in "Books" |

| 09:09.46 | johnx | I can live with that I guess |
| 09:10.45 | johnx | it would be nice if we didn't change it except when people were being forced to repackage anyways (new binary architecture, new API, changed pcakge names, etc) |
| 09:11.38 | johnx | actually, if we get debtags at some point this becomes largely irrelevant |
| 09:13.12 | Jaffa | No-ones actually suggested *how* debtags will solve any of the problems, have they? |
| 09:13.25 | GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, magic bullets are magic. |
| 09:13.29 | X-Fade | Jaffa: Marius did. |
| 09:14.03 | X-Fade | You can add multple tags to decribe a package. So it will show up in multiple 'categories'. |
| 09:14.07 | Jaffa | Where? What tags are defined, for example? How on earth would the UI work? |
| 09:14.53 | X-Fade | Marius to use debtags _as_ categories it seems. |
| 09:15.10 | X-Fade | So not abusing the section part but using debtags to replace that. |
| 09:15.21 | GeneralAntilles | Are debtags being used anywhere interesting currently? |
| 09:15.22 | X-Fade | So functionality would be the same. |
| 09:15.32 | Jaffa | X-Fade: So you can have less precise categories and the same app show up in wherever the app author wants, to cater for all cases? Seems like it'd encourage lazier categorisation to me; and you still have the issue of which tags to define ;-) |
| 09:16.04 | X-Fade | I still think about debtags as a good way to _describe_ a package. |
| 09:16.06 | johnx | but it solves the problem of apps that exist across categories |

| 09:16.51 | Jaffa | johnx: No, it's a cop out for when you can't define the categories properly. |
| 09:17.19 | johnx | Jaffa, fine. where do you put a network-enabled dictionary? What about an educational game? |
| 09:17.20 | Jaffa | For example, a library doesn't buy 10 copies of a book and put it in different parts of the library so you can find it. |
| 09:17.25 | GeneralAntilles | Or somebody figures "my solitaire game uses the network for high scores, so it should go in networking" |

| 09:18.22 | GeneralAntilles | Jaffa, yeah, but a bookstore does. ;) |

| 09:18.47 | GeneralAntilles | Though, admittedly, that's mostly sales tables and endcaps. ;) |
| 09:18.48 | Jaffa | A solitaire game using the network is still a game. |
| 09:18.58 | johnx | GeneralAntilles, ok, so *you* know why they go there. but the point is to give the user as many ways to get to what they want as possible |

| 10:44.42 | X-Fade | lardman: That is not known from the repository. Although we detect it in 'fresh' on /downloads/ |
| 10:44.52 | lardman | X-Fade: ok, no worries |
| 10:45.10 | GeneralAntilles | This search I'd like to see tied to Tracker and debtags. |
| 10:45.17 | X-Fade | lardman: Well, if we are going to fetch meta-data then it can be added of course ;) |
| 10:45.19 | lardman | Might be worth sticking a star by "Fresh" applications though, to highlight them? |
| 10:45.28 | GeneralAntilles | X-Fade, can you ponder a bit on what sort of hooks would be good for Downloads integration? |
| 10:45.38 | lardman | X-Fade: yeah, but do you know the age of everything, or just the latest X new apps |
| 10:45.40 | GeneralAntilles | and how we want h-a-m to communicate with maemo.org |
| 10:45.47 | X-Fade | GeneralAntilles: I guess just an xml feed orso? |
| 10:45.59 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking. |
| 10:46.07 | GeneralAntilles | I imagine mvo will have an opinion, too. |
| 10:46.11 | X-Fade | That should not be a problem. |
| 10:46.49 | X-Fade | We can fetch that from maemo.org and cache it in the repo when a package gets uploaded. |
| 10:46.52 | GeneralAntilles | In all honesty, I'd really like to see an appstore approach |
| 10:47.12 | GeneralAntilles | With the Application Manager being the preferred portal to sotfware over the web interface. |
| 10:47.23 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: if you search from the front page, what does it look at? Installed, not-yet-installed, upgrades? All? |
| 10:47.38 | X-Fade | GeneralAntilles: How about commenting an application? |
| 10:47.53 | lardman | yes, seeing comments would be good too |
| 10:48.14 | GeneralAntilles | X-Fade, I wonder if we could add a "application page" like the appstore has |
| 10:48.28 | GeneralAntilles | Not entirely unlike the info dialog we have now, but a real page |
| 10:48.39 | lardman | not html ;) |
| 10:48.46 | GeneralAntilles | No, of course not. ;) |
| 10:49.03 | GeneralAntilles | Commenting could be done through that after you add your maemo.org credentials to h-a-m |
| 10:49.22 | X-Fade | GeneralAntilles: Sure, all data is available. It is just a matter of displaying and interfacing? |
| 10:49.30 | GeneralAntilles | Right |
| 10:50.30 | GeneralAntilles | lardman, by default, I'd say all installable applications should be searched. |
| 10:50.35 | GeneralAntilles | (from the front page) |
| 10:50.44 | GeneralAntilles | s/front page/main view? |
| 10:50.50 | GeneralAntilles | s/?/\// :P |
| 10:50.59 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: I'd say all should be searched, and separated in the listview |
| 10:51.11 | GeneralAntilles | Hrm |
| 10:51.14 | GeneralAntilles | Tree view, maybe? |
| 10:51.28 | X-Fade | Hmm Mauku just arrived in extras-devel ;) |
| 10:51.28 | lardman | yeah, or just a dividing line |
| 10:51.36 | GeneralAntilles | > Installed applications (4) |
| 10:51.45 | GeneralAntilles | > Installable applications (12) |
| 10:51.55 | GeneralAntilles | v Updates (1) |
| 10:51.59 | GeneralAntilles | Mauku |
| 10:52.21 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: numbers would be nice appearing on the keys in the main view |

| 10:52.50 | X-Fade | I think that update should just show up like ssu. |
| 10:52.54 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: no, but if you have a search option without specifying the target, you ought to search everything |
| 10:53.03 | X-Fade | New applications are more interesting. |
| 10:53.33 | GeneralAntilles | lardman, I'm thinking the search should act like a filter if you're in one of the package views. |

| 10:53.48 | lardman | yes, if you're in one of the package views then just search that |
| 10:53.50 | cityLights | hi, thanks , issue is solved :-) |
| 10:53.54 | GeneralAntilles | So, if you search for "browser" when viewing the "Network" category, it would only filter that list. |

| 10:54.10 | GeneralAntilles | That's something that really irritates me about the Finder |
| 10:54.17 | cityLights | any idea how to mark a url safe for HTTPS even when cert is not good? |
| 10:54.29 | GeneralAntilles | They have a search bar on each window, but it does a global search instead of a search of the window's contents. |
| 10:55.31 | lardman | Can we add an extra column so we can multi-select |
| 10:55.41 | GeneralAntilles | N810 owners, can you use the keyboard to jump to an item in application menus? |

| 10:57.33 | lardman | tap another button which says mark for installation? |
| 10:57.50 | cityLights | <PROTECTED> |
| 10:57.51 | GeneralAntilles | Maybe |
| 10:57.57 | GeneralAntilles | Should be discussed |
| 10:58.06 | GeneralAntilles | at the very least, you should be able to select like the file mananger |
| 10:58.19 | cityLights | great |
| 10:58.22 | cityLights | forgot that |
| 10:58.23 | GeneralAntilles | and maybe there should be an "install all" button for search results. |
| 10:58.30 | cityLights | now: where is it updated? |
| 10:58.33 | cityLights | which file? |
| 10:58.46 | lardman | well if the listview were updated differently it might not matter too much, though it is annoying having to wait between selections to install another app |
| 10:58.55 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah. :\ |
| 10:59.01 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: no, not an install all |
| 10:59.08 | GeneralAntilles | qwerty12's current build seems to render a bit faster. |
| 10:59.22 | GeneralAntilles | lardman, so, instead, you'd have to mark each item for installation? |
| 10:59.29 | lardman | the list shouldn;t be destroyed, it should just have rows removed |
| 10:59.37 | lardman | yes |
| 10:59.40 | GeneralAntilles | I'd say that's not an unreasonable thing to put on the toolbar in a search result |
| 11:00.18 | lardman | very unlikely you'd want that from a search though |
| 11:00.32 | GeneralAntilles | Fair enough |
| 11:00.34 | lardman | if I search for "patience", I'd chose one not all of them to install |
| 11:00.36 | cityLights | ok, bye for no |
| 11:00.41 | cityLights | now |
| 11:01.58 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: when you highlight an app name, could add a button to the row "Mark for Installation", then use the "Install" button on the bottom to install all |

| 14:17.22 | cowbellemoo | Okay. I heard the chipset wasn't the best it could be because of a license dispute (or something) |
| 14:17.43 | cowbellemoo | Are videos watchable? |

| 14:21.26 | johnx | 400x240 on a ~4" screen is still a higher DPI than fullscreen video on the monitor you're looking at right now |
| 14:21.45 | cowbellemoo | Yeah. I could deal with the video on the old ipod video, so 400x240 is probably a step up |
| 14:22.16 | johnx | I've had good results with some at 640x272 but that's close to the limit I think |

| 16:53.32 | qwerty12 | solca, the nokia kernel doesn't boot from mmc by default either. Install bootmenu or use the linux flasher to change your boot device |
| 16:53.57 | johnx | well, I'm slowly dragging towards an alternate desktop based on matchbox |
| 16:54.40 | solca | I already do that when I installed Deblet, but I changed the cmdline parameter in the kernel to boot from MMC directly |
| 16:54.48 | solca | but it doesn't work |
| 16:55.08 | solca | this is my kernel parameter: root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 ro rootdelay=5 |

| 16:56.23 | Stskeeps | unless you hardwire the cmdline parameter |
| 16:56.36 | solca | Stskeeps: I changed in the kernel config |
| 16:57.08 | Stskeeps | sure it doesnt get overriden? :P |
| 16:57.37 | Stskeeps | johnx: it may cause problems cos of some silly package debian builds but maemo gtk doesn't |

| 17:18.24 | binky | My 770 started an endless reboot cycle. Sometimes the blue bar loads and reaches the end, ant then it stays like 30 seconds in a blank screen and reboots again -_- |

| 17:18.44 | Stskeeps | (when it boots) |
| 17:18.57 | binky | I tried to reflash, but the Windows Flasher wanted me to update to Diablo (in a 770, that's silly) |

| 17:19.19 | Stskeeps | solca: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h24f2YjzWBE |

| 17:22.19 | RST38h | sts: That may be a goal on its own although I doubt it is a very large niche |
| 17:22.27 | binky | should buy a N800... |
| 17:22.30 | lardman | binky: my point is, if you flash, you have to power down completely, so it makes no odds |
| 17:22.43 | GeneralAntilles | Stskeeps, during start up. |
| 17:22.45 | binky | lardman: Yeah, I can turn it down |
| 17:22.49 | GeneralAntilles | power on, more accurately. |
| 17:22.57 | binky | It turns off itself after a couple of minutes |
| 17:23.13 | binky | and I can connect it to my computer with a USB cable |
| 17:23.13 | lardman | so taking the battery out to see your actual MAC is no worse than switching off and then reflashing |
| 17:23.15 | RST38h | sts: I would rather see something that runs stuff in chroot and tries to intelligently modify their gtk UI to fit Hildon, more or less |
| 17:23.34 | RST38h | sts: because running xfce et al on a tiny (physically) touch screen is weird |

| 17:23.49 | binky | Is there example of MAC or something? |
| 17:24.08 | lardman | so just pull the battery out |
| 17:24.12 | lardman | no extra risk |

| 20:51.13 | JamieBennett | bergie, interesting. I have a post from several hours ago (6 maybe) that hasn't been syndicated yet. |
| 20:51.32 | bergie | do you use feedburner or something like that inbetween? |
| 20:51.36 | lcuk | JamieBennett, is that cos your other one is still there? |
| 20:51.56 | bergie | lcuk: we don't check against that |
| 20:52.13 | JamieBennett | lcuk: other one? I've had up to 4 posts on the planet and the front news site at a time |
| 20:52.15 | lcuk | didnt know |
| 20:52.20 | lcuk | heh |
| 20:52.21 | JamieBennett | bergie: yes |
| 20:52.28 | JamieBennett | feedburner |
| 20:52.33 | bergie | lcuk: planet you can spam full if you want... social news is the filtered one |
| 20:52.46 | bergie | JamieBennett: can you check if FB has picked up your story yet? |
| 20:52.54 | bergie | sometimes they cause quite long delays |
| 20:53.14 | bergie | I noticed my feed might get delayed 6+ hours because of FB so I disabled it |

| 20:54.00 | JamieBennett | Yes, its in feedburner as of 11:24 this morning (http://feeds.feedburner.com/Linuxuk) |
| 20:54.10 | JamieBennett | 9 hours ago |
| 20:55.10 | bergie | ok, let me check what the importer log says |
| 20:55.25 | JamieBennett | bergie, cool, I've noticed it a few times |
| 20:55.33 | JamieBennett | (maybe something to do with my feed?) |
| 20:56.07 | bergie | things are little slow still until we get green light for upgrading the servers to ragnaroek |
| 20:56.41 | bergie | BTW, I saw some weird timestamps on the servers... I think the VMware virtual servers don't quite stay on time |
| 20:56.49 | bergie | that can easily affect feed imports |
| 20:57.28 | JamieBennett | timing issues will definitely do it |
| 20:57.41 | bergie | JamieBennett: what is the name of your blog? |
| 20:57.47 | JamieBennett | linuxuk |
| 20:58.44 | bergie | "Latest item is from 10/26/08 23:12:42, latest fetch was on 10/30/08 12:29:49" |
| 20:59.16 | bergie | every other feed has latest fetch from around 22:40 |
| 20:59.20 | JamieBennett | :( Thought it was every hour |
| 20:59.37 | JamieBennett | feedburner? |
| 20:59.41 | bergie | aha... "No items found in feed." |
| 20:59.52 | JamieBennett | ? |
| 21:00.11 | JamieBennett | It finds them most of the time http://feeds.feedburner.com/Linuxuk |
| 21:00.45 | bergie | yeah... let me check if there is some parsing issue in the feed |
| 21:01.31 | bergie | the URL subscribed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/LinuxUk-Maemo BTW |

| 21:03.03 | bergie | feedburner |

| 21:12.06 | bergie | yeah, sometimes it responds in time, sometimes it doesn't |
| 21:12.29 | bergie | JamieBennett: the problem is, the RSS importer only gets one try per hour |
| 21:13.42 | pupnik | oop forgot my sarcasm tag... |
| 21:14.19 | JamieBennett | bergie: OK sometimes it timesout but 9 times in the last 9 hours, its either a low threshold with your software of bad problems googles end (and feedburner) |
| 21:14.44 | bergie | JamieBennett: not unheard of with feedburner, unfortunately :-( |
| 21:15.03 | JamieBennett | bergie: maybe its time I switched then :) |
| 21:15.18 | JamieBennett | bergie: as for the karma question? |
| 21:15.49 | bergie | it *should* be the time of last recount, but I've seen quite wild numbers there, possibly because server clocks have been running crazy |
| 21:16.03 | bergie | like it said my karma was from Nov 27th 2007 or something like that |
| 21:16.10 | JamieBennett | bergie: yes my karma was 2007 too :) |
| 21:16.41 | JamieBennett | bergie so it _should_ be last indexed time? |
| 21:17.24 | JamieBennett | good idea when it works |
| 21:22.08 | bergie | JamieBennett: I've tried manually reloading your feed a couple of times... doesn't help |
| 21:22.40 | JamieBennett | bergie what about http://linuxuk.org/taxonomy/term/3 ? |
| 21:23.06 | bergie | that isn't a feed :-) |
| 21:23.23 | JamieBennett | OK :) http://linuxuk.org/taxonomy/term/3/0/fee |

| 21:24.15 | bergie | on my test box the latest item is "Mamona & Maemo: 2 way contribution" |
| 21:24.30 | JamieBennett | Yes, thats one in front of planet.maemo.org |
| 21:24.47 | JamieBennett | so maybe I should get rid of feedburner then |
| 21:24.58 | JamieBennett | (as you seem to see the correct feed directly) |
| 21:25.11 | bergie | yeah |
| 21:25.17 | bergie | FB seems to do bad things |
| 21:25.22 | JamieBennett | :( |
| 21:25.34 | JamieBennett | Can you change it bergie or who do I email? |
| 21:26.10 | bergie | better if you contact X-Fade... I'm trying to keep my hands off actual site content :-) |
| 21:26.37 | JamieBennett | OK, no problem. Thanks for narrowing it down to feedburner for me |
| 21:26.59 | bergie | hehe... I just went through some performance test results between the Midgard we're running on maemo.org, and the one on my laptop... some 160x the speed |
| 21:27.13 | bergie | I mean versions, not server setups |
| 21:27.30 | JamieBennett | :) lets hope the new servers give us something remotely like that |
| 21:27.36 | bergie | I don't think we'll get quite that big difference when we upgrade, but it should be significant |

| 21:31.11 | woglinde | lardman not really |
| 21:31.28 | woglinde | I read most of the old arguments |
| 21:31.28 | JamieBennett | bergie: one last question, when will Karma catch up? I only ask as (somewhat related) I went to xfade's account and his Karma was from 04/10/08 nearly a year more than me :) |
| 21:31.37 | JamieBennett | lardman: yes |
| 21:31.54 | lardman | hmm, karma, I wonder if I still have 8 for discussion....? |
| 21:32.27 | JamieBennett | lardman: mines from 2007 it says :) |
| 21:32.39 | lardman | yeah, mine's still broken too then |
| 21:33.06 | bergie | JamieBennett: there are 14k entries to run through, 300 per hour |
| 21:33.13 | bergie | ...starting from oldest updated ones |
| 21:33.26 | lardman | bergie: have the problems been fixed? |
| 21:33.32 | lcuk | all from a 770 multitasking running the main server at same time! |
| 21:33.38 | bergie | actually the recounts started only some 5 hour ago, as yesterday there was a setup problem with it |
| 21:33.40 | JamieBennett | 46 hours then |
| 21:34.02 | bergie | lardman: yes... we split the recount into smaller chunks so that it doesn't run out of memory/time |
| 21:34.02 | JamieBennett | (2 days) |
| 21:34.13 | JamieBennett | sounds like a plan bergie |
| 21:34.16 | lardman | bergie: cool |
| 21:34.36 | bergie | later on I'd like to split all these heavy calculations (social news, karma, ...) off the actual front-end server |
| 21:34.45 | bergie | but that depends on the infrastructure Nokia gets from Ixonos |

| 21:36.46 | JamieBennett | (I'm a northerner too ;)) |
| 21:36.58 | JamieBennett | thanks for your help bergie |
| 21:37.03 | bergie | np |
| 21:39.36 | lcuk | lardman, duly noted and ive done what i can to de-emphasise it |
| 21:40.17 | lcuk | JamieBennett, my accent is perfect tyvm :P i was less northern then than ever |
| 21:40.34 | lardman | I've added a bit more blurb agreeing that we will still have the platform limited display bandwidth |
| 21:40.41 | JamieBennett | lcuk ;) Its the scouse :) |
| 21:40.57 | lcuk | then you are double wrong, im a mancunian |
| 21:41.09 | JamieBennett | lardman: PIM depends entirely on where Nokia want to take the device |
| 21:41.12 | lardman | JamieBennett: you'll offend him! |
| 21:41.17 | qwerty12_N800 | JamieBennett, Omg, another one with the accent?!? (i'm a yorkshire boi :p) |
| 21:41.31 | JamieBennett | lardman, that was the intention ;) |
| 21:41.42 | lardman | JamieBennett: agreed, but it would be useful to see what people want, and what's already supplied; even if Nokia don't do this for us, it could be another community driven thing |
| 21:41.47 | JamieBennett | qwerty12_N800 Yorkshire boy myself :D |
| 21:42.20 | JamieBennett | lardman: but for instance would you want a PIM on an archos device? |
| 21:42.25 | qwerty12_N800 | :D |
| 21:42.41 | JamieBennett | qwerty: where from? |
| 21:42.51 | qwerty12_N800 | Halifax :) |
| 21:42.58 | JamieBennett | Bradford :D |
| 21:42.59 | lcuk | lardman, "from the kernel" you mean the powervr kernel? does it have one or is it just a custom chip - im assuming its similar in principle to the dsp |
| 21:43.01 | lardman | JamieBennett: if it were my only portable computer, then yes ;) |
| 21:43.18 | lardman | Linux kernel I meant |
| 21:43.28 | lardman | it's just hardware afaik |
| 21:43.39 | lardman | though it may have shaders and bits like that which are programmable |
| 21:43.42 | JamieBennett | lcuk; The best insult for a manc is to insult his football team or call him a scouse :) |
| 21:43.52 | lcuk | but the linux kernel doesnt manage the powervr - i thought it was like the dsp in that regard |
| 21:43.54 | qwerty12_N800 | hehe |
| 21:44.05 | lcuk | <PROTECTED> |
| 21:44.09 | lardman | lcuk: yes the Linux kernel does manage the powervr |
| 21:44.15 | JamieBennett | :P |
| 21:44.38 | lardman | lcuk: afaik it maps the registers, etc., into some part of kernel memory and the powervr kernel driver controls it |

| 22:43.11 | lbt | Oh, when you said popcorn I figured you left them in and microwaved it... |
| 22:43.21 | lardman | yeah, I was wondering too |
| 22:43.48 | lardman | the recipe this evening was for a stew-sort of thing though, looked pretty tasty |
| 22:44.07 | RST38h | of course you can't serve it whole |
| 22:44.23 | RST38h | because then everyone would see what it is, but stew is fine |

| 22:58.33 | lardman | This is a bug in its iCal output? |
| 22:59.07 | lbt | dunno - I'm getting the source for the various calendars - egw, korganiser and gpe-cal |
| 22:59.14 | lbt | oh, and iceowl |

| 23:14.20 | lcuk | read an email the other day where jott was mentioned, and not in past tense either |
| 23:16.32 | lcuk | who wants a slice of home made pizza? |

| 23:17.37 | lcuk | k ill email it to you |
| 23:17.45 | woglinde | haha |
| 23:17.48 | woglinde | then its cold |
| 23:17.56 | lcuk | cold pizza is the best |
| 23:17.58 | woglinde | and not tasty anymore |
| 23:18.00 | woglinde | nope |
| 23:18.14 | lcuk | ok ok - ill instant message it you |
| 23:18.17 | lcuk | it will still be hot |
| 23:18.48 | lcuk | what you upto tonight then woglinde? |
| 23:19.07 | lcuk | apart from sittin around waiting for pizza |
| 23:19.18 | woglinde | still assigment |
| 23:19.28 | woglinde | sucking theroetical compuer science |
| 23:19.31 | lardman | had far too much home-made pizza earlier tonight |
| 23:20.16 | woglinde | hm I only need algorithm for fibuonacci numbers with fast matrix multiply |
| 23:20.25 | woglinde | so we can show it runs in O(logn) |
| 23:20.26 | woglinde | hahaha |
| 23:20.54 | lcuk | cant you just make your computer ask google for the answer |
| 23:21.34 | lcuk | thinks 3 slices was too much - woglinde i think you really are havin some pizza |
| 23:21.37 | woglinde | I am afraid google cant scope with the search terms |
| 23:22.06 | lcuk | no, it copes fine, its you that can't cope with the answers it gives :P |

| 23:22.58 | moontiger | *sigh* the maemo.org website is slow as molasses agin |
| 23:23.31 | woglinde | hm seems 2nd google hit is okay |
| 23:23.33 | lcuk | its cos we are all hammering the wiki |
| 23:23.37 | lcuk | heheheheheh |
| 23:24.14 | lbt | added slapd to PIM page |
| 23:24.41 | woglinde | barks golden ratio again |
| 23:24.56 | lcuk | woglinde, if i need something specific i look here first to get me the available options http://www.scriptol.org/list-of-algorithms.html |
| 23:24.57 | qwerty12_N800 | allnameswereout also compiled the osmo organiser too |
| 23:26.24 | lcuk | excellent lbt, thats the sort of thing i was talkin about - core elements :) |
| 23:27.48 | lcuk | all this talk of sync - ive got 2 browser windows up, and both have a copy of the same page viewed |
| 23:28.09 | lcuk | why doesnt my browser have an option to ensure all instances of same page are refreshed at same time |
| 23:28.31 | woglinde | lcuk there is no algo with fast multiply |
| 23:28.36 | woglinde | args +matrix |
| 23:29.30 | lcuk | what do you mean by fast multiply - 16bit numbers, 32 bit? arbitrary precision? floats? ints? |
| 23:29.45 | lcuk | and which language |
| 23:29.59 | woglinde | fast matrix multipy |
| 23:30.39 | woglinde | if you want to get the power of something |
| 23:31.04 | woglinde | its faster to multiply matrizes instead of multiply eachtime |
| 23:31.09 | woglinde | the same value |
| 23:32.02 | *** join/#maemo fredix (n=fred@fredix.nodecast.org) |
| 23:32.04 | lcuk | cant you just use the built in floating point pwr() function? |
| 23:32.09 | lcuk | or whatever it is called |
| 23:32.18 | woglinde | nono |
| 23:32.22 | lbt | night all |
| 23:32.23 | woglinde | its not technical |
| 23:32.26 | lcuk | gnite lbt |
| 23:32.27 | woglinde | its theoretical |
| 23:32.57 | lcuk | what sort of numbers are we talking about? |
| 23:33.15 | lcuk | mega didgit primes or reasonable ~64bit values |
| 23:33.16 | woglinde | fibonacci |
| 23:33.20 | woglinde | lol |
| 23:33.26 | woglinde | I said its not technical |
| 23:33.32 | woglinde | register are irrelvant |
| 23:33.40 | *** join/#maemo christefano (n=christo@cpe-98-149-176-103.socal.res.rr.com) |
| 23:34.30 | lcuk | no but that indicates theoretical speed - you normally only need to breakdown calculations into matrixes for multiplication of arbitrary precision numbers, its worthless under a certain threshold |
| 23:35.28 | lcuk | ie what would the matric for doing 3^3 be? |
| 23:35.31 | lardman | night lbt |
| 23:35.35 | woglinde | you can compute fibonacci numbers with |
| 23:35.56 | woglinde | 2x2 matrix (1 1, 1 0) |
| 23:37.22 | woglinde | hm I will give a fuck on that |
| 23:37.30 | woglinde | we have the other stuff right |
| 23:37.46 | woglinde | so one subquestion not to be solved should be okay |
| 23:37.47 | lcuk | heh |
| 23:38.39 | lcuk | just write something like "I have discovered a truly marvellous proof of this, which this margin is too narrow to contain." |
| 23:40.03 | woglinde | nope if they find out I took an answer from google, the whole assigment is marked as failed |
| 23:40.13 | derf | But taking it from IRC is okay? |
| 23:40.14 | lardman | is there not a sqlite3_column_float() fn? |
| 23:40.22 | derf | It's not actually a hard problem. |
| 23:40.29 | woglinde | derf hehe |
| 23:40.49 | derf | What's the direct formula for the nth Fibonacci number? |
| 23:40.55 | lcuk | derf, irc is discussion |
| 23:43.03 | woglinde | http://everything2.com/e2node/Compute%2520Fibonacci%2520numbers%2520FAST%2521 |
| 23:45.04 | woglinde | but we are handling the tex file with git |
| 23:45.06 | woglinde | so okay |
| 23:45.10 | woglinde | I will go to bed |
| 23:45.13 | woglinde | nite |
| 23:48.29 | lardman | how are dates and times stored? |
| 23:48.41 | lardman | date could be days since some date, so an unsigned integer |
| 23:49.00 | lardman | time could be seconds in the day, so same, but are the two ever combined? |
| 23:49.11 | lardman | in a floating point number for example? |
| 23:49.20 | woglinde | lardman hm on unix its always seconds |
| 23:49.23 | lcuk | lardman, thats how im used to seeing datetimes |
| 23:49.27 | woglinde | after 1970 |
| 23:49.40 | lardman | woglinde: ah, ok |
| 23:50.03 | lardman | lcuk: same here from the old days |
| 23:51.44 | lcuk | "The way DateTimes are stored and retrieved from Sqlite databases depends on a lot, unfortunately, because Sqlite doesn't have a way of storing datetimes natively. Further, there are two versions of Sqlite (2 and 3) which are treated differently when it comes to DateTimes. The recommended way of using DateTimes with Sqlite is to encode/decode them yourself to/from some particular integer string format that you decide, and not putting |

| 23:52.11 | woglinde | hihi |
| 23:52.12 | lardman | right, I was going to use a uint |
| 23:52.23 | woglinde | so |
| 23:52.25 | lcuk | http://www.experts-exchange.com/Database/Miscellaneous/Q_21963308.html |
| 23:52.39 | lardman | cheers |
| 23:52.59 | lcuk | gonna need it myself soon anyway |
| 23:53.21 | lcuk | im bringing the db stuff back form the dead - ive had enough of files i tihnk |
| 23:54.14 | lcuk | lardman, what version of sqlite is installed? |
| 23:55.06 | lcuk | http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki/wiki?p=DateAndTimeFunctions and http://www.somacon.com/p370.php |
| 23:55.18 | lardman | no idea, yet :) |
| 23:55.37 | lcuk | heh |
| 23:55.50 | lardman | think I'll stick with Linux-style dates anyway |
| 23:56.07 | lardman | lcuk: I write as much as possible, then test |
| 23:56.34 | lcuk | heh i prefer to see what im doin with little test blocks then make use of known good code ;) |
| 23:56.53 | lardman | nah, that's what printf is for! |
| 23:57.45 | lcuk | thank the segfault lord |
