| 15:01.02 | wazd | so you don't like the "desktop" concept?) |
| 15:01.22 | GeneralAntilles | More seriously, I'm not sure we should start diverging from the current layout until we know more about Nokia's plans for Fremantle. |
| 15:01.25 | lcuk | we do, but the desktop area is for whatever applets the user chooses |

| 15:34.53 | GeneralAntilles | wazd, there's plenty to show. |
| 15:35.03 | wazd | Then RS-51 would be released April :) |

| 15:35.45 | GeneralAntilles | I wonder if the momentum has just completely dropped out of http://wiki.maemo.org/Fremantle_Stars |
| 15:36.06 | RST38h | wazd: In fact, the existence of rx-51 prototypes has been confirmed by the mothership representatives |
| 15:36.25 | GeneralAntilles | Almost release-quality according to the comments that were removed from itT. |

| 15:40.35 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah, but that was, what, a month ago, right? |

| 15:41.05 | lardman | perhaps they;ve given up on us ;) |
| 15:41.09 | GeneralAntilles | Hehe |
| 15:41.19 | GeneralAntilles | I guess you really need the beta SDK to do real Fremantle-oriented work. |

| 16:06.47 | zeld | symbian is not a linux derived OS? |
| 16:06.50 | Stskeeps | correct |
| 16:07.00 | lcuk | johnx, technically does pixels matter - i thought aspect ratio was MUCH more important |
| 16:07.01 | Stskeeps | also, just because it runs linux, doesnt mean you can replace it :) |
| 16:07.35 | lcuk | especially if you wanna run things on HIGHER than defined - ie desktop/laptops have 1024/768 etc but you might still want fullscreen |
| 16:07.41 | johnx | lcuk, run some maemo apps in a xephyr window dialed to 320x240 :) |
| 16:07.42 | aquatix | zeld: symbian is an independent OS |
| 16:07.53 | aquatix | formerly known as EPOC |
| 16:08.06 | Stskeeps | though i wonder why noone did a bootloader from-within symbian thing or whatever |
| 16:08.09 | lcuk | johnx, i suppose :) just getting used to resolution freedom in lb :) |
| 16:08.25 | lcuk | runs things in 256*224 without caring |
| 16:08.39 | johnx | lcuk, not everyone is as enlightened as you. actually you can see which apps play nice just by turning on rotation support :) |
| 16:08.44 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, you're not using bitmapped themes. |
| 16:09.05 | johnx | GeneralAntilles, gaah. don't remind me about the art I'd need to redo for a real VGA layout :/ |
| 16:09.12 | GeneralAntilles | :P |
| 16:10.06 | lcuk | yeah johnx agreed entirely, heads in about a zillion places ill just sit back for a while :) |
| 16:10.55 | johnx | lcuk, I mean a lot of apps might actually work ok, but I think things like toolbars are going to have issues once they get much below 720 horizontal |
| 16:11.30 | johnx | lcuk, and I do appreciate being poked at to defend what I'm saying :) keeps me from making assumptions |
| 16:13.05 | zeld | aquatix: thnx for clarification :) |
| 16:13.12 | aquatix | zeld: you're welcome :) |

| 17:07.15 | johnx | Stskeeps, nope, just conf files and a new theme |

| 17:21.19 | r2d2rogers | is it useful to look at the kernel?? |

| 19:43.12 | Stskeeps | regarding window placement |
| 19:43.20 | johnx | but we compiled libhildonhelp so ... guess that was it |
| 19:43.21 | thopiekar | I've got two questions... why is it so important to make a usb-network between the device and the pc to developt with esbox or pluthon? and why is the ip-adress in these plugins not changeable to link the plugins to wifi? |
| 19:44.02 | johnx | however, I can't *close* the help window |
| 19:44.40 | Stskeeps | johnx: < |
| 19:44.45 | Stskeeps | or whatever the return thing is |
| 19:44.56 | Stskeeps | oh, right, vga |
| 19:44.59 | Stskeeps | "esc" :P |
| 19:45.02 | qwerty12 | Stskeeps, grr, if you set matchbox mode to free then by default, it fucks up the dialog sizes & placements. Matan released a replacement matchbox binary which solves those problems in free mode. But he didn't release a diff. He doesn't seem to scared of releasing source so if you ask him for the patch, I'm sure that he will happily oblige. |
| 19:45.18 | Stskeeps | qwerty12: alright, ta, will ask him |
| 19:45.19 | johnx | Stskeeps, my escape key sends F3 I believe :( |
| 19:45.35 | Jaffa | thopiekar: using the new versions of the plugins or the old ones? |
| 19:46.17 | thopiekar | the newest... but let my check it once again.. |
| 19:47.10 | RST38h | Symbian again. |
| 19:47.15 | Jaffa | I think the reason is that a) not many people are using them, b) the developers aren't using it in day-to-day development, c) it works for them, and that's enough |
| 19:47.53 | Jaffa | has been thinking today again about Eclipse-based IDEs for JVM-based Maemo development: http://lists.evolvis.org/pipermail/jalimo-info/2009-January/000256.html |
| 19:48.02 | Stskeeps | johnx: weird fact btw - gnome-keyring comes up unthemed |
| 19:48.55 | johnx | huh...must not inherit some env variable |
| 19:49.03 | johnx | can you run it manually? |
| 19:49.24 | Stskeeps | i didn't investigate it that deepily |
| 19:49.33 | Stskeeps | i suspect i -want- to run it manually, since i want to get rid of it :P |
| 19:49.44 | Stskeeps | and just store its bloody keys and leave me in peace :P |
| 19:49.52 | johnx | yeah :) |
| 19:50.01 | RST38h | Jaffa: you mention WebOS as being "nicer" but you haven't really seen it yet |
| 19:50.12 | johnx | I think we can safely say this is one of those times when the user should have most of roots privileges |
| 19:51.57 | RST38h | Jaffa: have you actually tried Android development btw? |
| 19:52.22 | Jaffa | RST38h: Not in terms of the platform (well, apart from the technical API details and debugging screenshots which are leaking out), but in terms of developer friendliness, I'm willing to put a fiver on it being better than Scratchbox, rootstraps and the rest. |
| 19:52.39 | Jaffa | RST38h: Some simple stuff. I'm not talking (really) about the development platform, but the developer *tools*. |
| 19:52.42 | Stskeeps | btw, what do you people think QT being LGPL'ed will mean for mobile UIs? i mean, with it in symbian, maemo, and easily adaptable for embedded devices, and stable and well documented |
| 19:52.51 | RST38h | Jaffa: You mean the IDE? |
| 19:52.53 | Stskeeps | is it going to aid in the "fight" against android UI api and others? |
| 19:53.01 | Jaffa | RST38h: amongst other things, yes. |
| 19:53.18 | RST38h | Jaffa: I don't think there are other things, a debugger maybe... |
| 19:53.25 | johnx | Stskeeps, it is a huge blessing. pyqt is nice and simple |
| 19:53.47 | RST38h | development-wise Java is actually more of a problem than C/C++ (classpath etc) |
| 19:53.52 | Jaffa | RST38h: Debugger's a big one. Remote debugging, even better. Have you seen the videos of iPhone development. |
| 19:54.06 | RST38h | No, but I do not use debuggers much anyway |
| 19:54.19 | Stskeeps | Jaffa: some of that matches some of my thoughts regarding SDK i had initially :) |
| 19:54.20 | RST38h | printf() usually solves all my problems |
| 19:54.27 | johnx | Jaffa, is that the part where the apple sends the guy an NDA or where he can't run his app in the background :> |
| 19:54.41 | thopiekar | Jaffa: I've got the newest plugin versions installed, but i can't even find a way to change the ip'S |
| 19:54.48 | Jaffa | RST38h: Classpath's not really been an issue for the last 5 years or so. And now even with things like OSGi you can have multiple classpath versions in the same JVM |
| 19:55.09 | RST38h | MULTIPLE classpathes? |
| 19:55.13 | Jaffa | RST38h: You're not going to start arguing that because you find printf() a perfectly satisfactory debugging technique, everyone else should too. |
| 19:55.20 | RST38h | I have problems with a single one, honestly... |
| 19:55.36 | RST38h | Jaffa: nah, not starting an argument here |
| 19:55.49 | RST38h | Jaffa: Just saying that for me personally debugger isn't a priority |
| 19:55.51 | Jaffa | RST38h: multiple classpath version things. Useful for plugin environments where you want to run multiple separate plugins in the same environment, without resolving any dependency issues. |
| 19:56.10 | RST38h | Jaffa: Don't want to run any Java. |
| 19:56.22 | RST38h | Usually crashes on my computer anyway |
| 19:57.03 | Jaffa | johnx: And, no - I'm not praising Apple's business practices. Their device. Or the iPhone. Just development tooling. Post-run profiling and debugging, remotely is a pretty compelling demo. |
| 19:57.10 | wazd | Palm Pre is for pussies. New Obama's smartphone is for real men :D |
| 19:57.31 | johnx | Jaffa, I largely agree with you that maemo development tools (and especially tool setup) could be better. I was just having a dig :) |
| 19:57.33 | RST38h | wazd: WinMobile? naah |
| 19:57.43 | RST38h | wazd: He should be running EPOC16 to be a real man |
| 19:57.45 | Jaffa | johnx: bad time; *really* bad time ;-) |

| 19:59.07 | wazd | Stskeeps: as I've read that Zune problem was actualy CPU problem :) |
| 19:59.08 | RST38h | Jaffa: I would say, a more useful idea would be to improve C/C++ debugging and development |
| 19:59.27 | RST38h | Jaffa: Let us say, take Geany on the desktop and integrate it with gdb running on the device |
| 19:59.46 | RST38h | Jaffa: And instead of the dreadful scratchbox, use plain ssh to connect and run gdb |
| 20:00.06 | Stskeeps | gdbserver..? :P |
| 20:00.14 | RST38h | something like that |
| 20:00.42 | Jaffa | RST38h: Absolutely. More sensible development tools would be great. Go to it. Personally, I'm having difficulty motivating myself to do the things I want to do at the moment. And dealing with low-level C APIs, ain't it. |
| 20:01.07 | RST38h | Jaffa: The above stuff does not involve dealing with C |
| 20:01.20 | RST38h | Jaffa: Ironically, it is mostly shell scripting |
| 20:01.37 | RST38h | Jaffa: And possibly some perl/python to parse gdb output |
| 20:01.40 | Jaffa | Yes, but despite supporting improving C tools; since I don't want to *use* C tools, where's my itch? |
| 20:02.11 | RST38h | Jaffa: Dunno, maybe do the same for Python instead? |

| 20:57.21 | Jaffa | RST38h: To an extent. You can't do photo-realistic gaming on a Wii (without stupid amounts of hand-optimisation which just isn't economical) and can on an Xbox 360/PS3. You (probably) can't do much in the way of high-speed first person shooters on webOS; but you can do puzzle/simple/casual games like Tetris. |
| 20:57.24 | RST38h | Jaffa: And, of course, if you use web page tools to write an app then any app that is not a web page will be difficult to write |
| 20:57.38 | r2d2rogers | anyone got a hint for getting bluetooth keyboard working from commandline? |
| 20:57.44 | Shadow_M | i tried it didnt like it all that much and i havnt had an issue with modest and i dont want to punch mine |
| 20:58.01 | RST38h | Jaffa: Let me take another cheap shot |
| 20:58.06 | RST38h | Jaffa: How about Chess? ;) |
| 20:58.10 | Jaffa | RST38h: And the great thing about Maemo is that you're not limited to a single API or a single layer. No-one's arguing about that. But having a better system's useless if no-one's developing for it. |
| 20:58.34 | RST38h | Jaffa: Nobody is developing for webOs YET |
| 20:58.37 | Jaffa | RST38h: I think the "not a web page" argument doesn't hold water with the way that things like HTML5 and rich JavaScript apps are going. |
| 20:58.46 | RST38h | Jaffa: So let us not be hasteful with analysis |
| 20:58.50 | Jaffa | RST38h: Well, no-one outside the commercial pre-launch partners. |
| 20:59.14 | RST38h | Jaffa: In reality, the "not a web page" argument is not as black-and-white as I have stated it |
| 20:59.31 | *** join/#maemo else58 (n=else58@70.114.141.46) |
| 20:59.50 | RST38h | Jaffa: Rather, it feels like "the less static your application is, the more difficult it is to do in HTML and JS" |
| 20:59.52 | Jaffa | RST38h: I'd happily put (some) money on more apps being in Palm's App Catalog within, say, 3 months of launch than there are in downloads.maemo.org/OS2008 after 2 years. |
| 21:00.00 | Jaffa | RST38h: No argument from me. |
| 21:00.21 | Jaffa | RST38h: So the "no-one's developing for webOS *YET*" is a valid point, but I think we can safely extrapolate. |
| 21:00.25 | RST38h | But my suspicion is that at some point Palm will break and publish a native API |
| 21:00.30 | sisto | i have a new printer :D |
| 21:00.38 | RST38h | Jaffa: Can't safely extrapolate in this business |
| 21:00.38 | Jaffa | Whether anyone will be developing for it in 3 years time, who knows. (Then again, same goes for Maemo ;-)) |
| 21:00.48 | RST38h | Jaffa: Way too many variables |
| 21:00.51 | Jaffa | RST38h: Agreed. A native API is inevitable. |
| 21:01.08 | RST38h | Jaffa: not just technical ones but economic, social, etc |
| 21:01.12 | b-man | starts to be a little envyus about palm pre's UI |
| 21:01.14 | Jaffa | Palm's business is dependent on Pre/webOS being a success. |
| 21:01.37 | RST38h | For all I know, Palm may go tits up before it releases the Pre to the masses |
| 21:01.47 | Jaffa | Or pull it pre-launch like the Foleo. |
| 21:01.58 | RST38h | That would be a joke |
| 21:02.05 | Jaffa | Hmm, I wonder how much of Foleo's Linux-based OS is underneath webOS. |
| 21:02.28 | RST38h | "linux-based OS" is otherwise known as "linux", so all of it. |
| 21:02.45 | zakkm | b-man: when i run the first insmod i get |
| 21:02.49 | Jaffa | RST38h: Bollocks. |
| 21:02.59 | zakkm | insmod: cannot insert '/mnt/initfs/lib/modules/2.6.21-omap1/mbcache.ko': File exists (-1): File exists |
| 21:03.13 | Stskeeps | zakkm: fine |
| 21:03.15 | Jaffa | Android is Linux-based. So was the Zaurus OS. Same kernel, but the libraries building it up are different. |

| 21:03.42 | zakkm | oh okay :) |
| 21:03.44 | zakkm | sorry |
| 21:03.46 | zakkm | i want to do this right |
| 21:03.54 | RST38h | Jaffa: They have all got Linux kernel. They have all got libc/libm/libz/etc. |
| 21:03.58 | suihkulokki | foleo was based on linux 2.4 |
| 21:04.07 | Jaffa | suihkulokki: It was? |
| 21:04.20 | suihkulokki | I doubt much from that port is going to be useful for a omap3 device :P |
| 21:04.21 | RST38h | Jaffa: They have all got pretty much the same drivers. Same busybox. Same basic utilities (cat/ps/who/etc) |
| 21:04.35 | zakkm | b-man: how lnog would the debootstrap take? rough estimate |
| 21:04.39 | RST38h | Jaffa: Some of them even got the same X11/SDL/etc |
| 21:04.43 | Jaffa | RST38h: PulseAudio/ALSA/gstreamer? Xorg/kdrive/Framebuffer? Gtk/Qt/Clutter/WebKit? |
| 21:04.56 | RST38h | Jaffa: These do not consitute a "system" |
| 21:05.07 | RST38h | Jaffa: Your desktop PC may have ALL OF THEM at once |
| 21:05.12 | b-man | zakkm: 1/2 hour to 1.5 hours at best |
| 21:05.13 | Jaffa | RST38h: So? |
| 21:05.20 | zakkm | ohh error |
| 21:05.29 | zakkm | E: Couldn't download dists/jaunty/main/binary-armel/Packages |
| 21:05.35 | suihkulokki | Jaffa: see the last pic here: http://www.palminfocenter.com/news/9439/palm-foleo-hands-on-gallery/ |
| 21:05.37 | Jaffa | ain't gonna get into a semantic debate now over what a "system" is. You win. |
| 21:05.37 | RST38h | Jaffa: So what we have is the same Linux (not some "linux-based OS") with some different app frameworks on top |
| 21:06.04 | b-man | zakkm: how strong is your connection? |
| 21:06.13 | zakkm | it was like 3rd one |
| 21:06.15 | Jaffa | suihkulokki: Oh yeah. |
| 21:06.15 | zakkm | strong enough |
| 21:06.25 | b-man | hmm |
| 21:06.25 | zakkm | W: http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/jaunty/main/binary-armel/Packages.bz2 was corrupt |
| 21:06.32 | RST38h | Jaffa: It is actually important to understand so that next time when some Motorla is telling you of a miraculous "linux based system" you just know they have taken a standard embedded linux |
| 21:06.35 | zakkm | im sshing from my pc too |
| 21:06.39 | zakkm | so the connection has to be on |
| 21:06.41 | RST38h | and put some glazing on top |
| 21:06.50 | suihkulokki | bonus points for anyone who recognizes the "terminal" application from the version number :) |
| 21:06.53 | Jaffa | RST38h: Montavista's "standard embedded Linux" or someone elses |
| 21:07.10 | RST38h | Jaffa: The differences are usually cosmetic |
| 21:07.22 | b-man | did you use my jaunty script? don't use the one that comes from debootstrap |
| 21:07.30 | RST38h | Now, if one of these companies takes Linux kernel and makes drastic changes to it, THAT is a linux based system indeed :) |
| 21:07.35 | Jaffa | RST38h: Having put together at least 2 different Linux distributions (and a kernel does not an OS make), I think I understand what someone means by "Linux-based OS", thankyouverymuchkthxby |
| 21:07.35 | zakkm | yes i removed the symlink |
| 21:07.40 | zakkm | and copied the one from tar.gz |
| 21:07.51 | RST38h | then no need to argue |
| 21:08.02 | Jaffa | I don't like being patronised. |
| 21:08.18 | b-man | ponders |
| 21:08.21 | RST38h | Not trying to patronise, but am trying to define things |
| 21:08.35 | RST38h | Always the required first step before discussing them |
| 21:08.39 | andre___ | lardman|gone, can i trick you into retesting in fremantle sdk pre alpha some of the kernel/dsp bugs you filed against diablo? or is the sdk still missing some of required components? :-/ |
| 21:08.43 | Jaffa | Most of the time, your over accurate desire to define things gets in the way of useful discussion. |
| 21:08.59 | RST38h | Jaffa: that is because you take it for an argument :) |
| 21:09.05 | lcuk | andre___, does the dsp work in the emulator? |
| 21:09.08 | RST38h | It's not an argument yet, usually :) |
| 21:09.29 | Jaffa | Who cares if webOS is "Linux-based" or "Linux"? I can't take an ARM Linux binary from one system and run it on the other. Application portability is a good a definition of an OS as any other. |
| 21:09.47 | andre___ | lcuk, i simply don't know (never been hacking on low level stuff ever), hence i ask idiot questions :-D |
| 21:10.12 | b-man | zakkm: have you tryed re-connecting to the wed, that usually fixes it for me |
| 21:10.15 | lcuk | seems reasonable :D i always thought the hardware emulation was minimal |

| 21:10.38 | zakkm | okay i will |
| 21:10.41 | lcuk | jaffa, RST38h the most important thing is that the term "webOS" is a complete lie :D |
| 21:10.42 | RST38h | Jaffa: Sometimes you can :) |
| 21:11.00 | RST38h | lcuk: Well, it is a trademark, not a lie |
| 21:11.04 | qwerty12_N800 | andre___, qemu in diablo in diablo sdk cannot emulate even "standard" audio :) |
| 21:11.09 | andre___ | eeks |
| 21:11.11 | andre___ | k |
| 21:11.16 | lcuk | heh |
| 21:11.18 | RST38h | But I guess that in physical reality "webOS" is basically a runtime framework on top of Linux |
| 21:11.47 | RST38h | Same as "Android" is just a java-like runtime |
| 21:11.51 | lcuk | its a web browser |
| 21:12.00 | zakkm | b-man: same thing |
| 21:12.05 | RST38h | lcuk: Not based on what the PandoraFM guy said |

| 22:29.38 | wazd | thinks he came up with task switcher finally |
| 22:30.06 | BrentDC | I have a question for all the Linux Gurus among us: is there any way to see what the current draw on the battery is? I can get the current voltage via Matan's retu-adc program, but I also need to know current draw. Any way? |
| 22:30.56 | wazd | Linux Guru's definitely not me :) |
| 22:31.04 | wazd | ~linux guru |
| 22:32.20 | Stskeeps | BrentDC: install ftd |
| 22:32.27 | BrentDC | lol. I'm trying to better gauge battery level (using Python & a little math), but the jumpy voltage reading isn't enough help |
| 22:32.33 | BrentDC | ftd? |
| 22:32.46 | Stskeeps | i think you might be able to apt-get install ftd really |
| 22:32.54 | qwerty12_N800 | no |
| 22:32.56 | Stskeeps | oh? |
| 22:33.01 | qwerty12_N800 | it was removed. |
| 22:33.04 | Stskeeps | that's silly |
| 22:34.20 | qwerty12_N800 | it was only in the early leak of diablo, I happened to notice it when browsing in red pill mode... and then proceeded to make screenies... |
| 22:34.21 | BrentDC | Google isn't revealing much: is it in any of the repo's (chinook?) |
| 22:34.37 | BrentDC | oh |
| 22:35.27 | qwerty12_N800 | http://timeless.justdave.net/repository/catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/updates/diablo/ |
| 22:35.42 | qwerty12_N800 | search for ftd and use dpkg to install |
| 22:36.01 | qwerty12_N800 | you may have to resolve dependencies manually |
| 22:36.05 | Stskeeps | and the usual warning it may blow up your tablet or cause you horrible burns |
| 22:36.06 | Stskeeps | :P |
| 22:37.00 | BrentDC | should i install the plugin or the other one? |
| 22:37.07 | qwerty12_N800 | both |
| 22:37.11 | BrentDC | ok |
| 22:37.24 | BrentDC | thanks, sts & qwerty |

| 22:56.01 | BrentDC | ok, I got ftd installed: wow lots of information. But it raises a new question: ftd seems to basically be a frontend to klogd....is there any way to access klogd's info via a CLI? (so i can poll and record the data). |
| 22:59.01 | StsN800 | ftd also acceses bme |
| 22:59.20 | StsN800 | which is not klogd |
| 22:59.51 | BrentDC | so any way to access that, too? |

| 23:02.27 | wazd | StsN800: possible to make it twice wider |
| 23:03.31 | StsN800 | wazd, confused by the white window selection though |
| 23:04.07 | StsN800 | not obvious it belongs to the two squares |
| 23:04.24 | wazd | StsN800: yep, that's the problem |
| 23:05.00 | wazd | StsN800: but principe is clear I think, this is just small design problem) |
| 23:05.12 | StsN800 | yeah |
| 23:05.19 | TrueJournals | Is that actually what mer will look like? Or just a mockup? |
| 23:05.27 | StsN800 | mockup |

| 23:07.11 | wazd | StsN800: I think task switcher drop menu should be twice wider, for titles |
| 23:07.48 | wazd | StsN800: maybe it can be just standart maemo switcher btw |
| 23:07.59 | wazd | StsN800: just placed on top |
| 23:08.02 | StsN800 | ui is a bit difficult touch wise isn't it? |
| 23:08.37 | wazd | StsN800: yep, I had to redraw simple hildon menu |
| 23:09.03 | wazd | StsN800: but as I said, maybe the best way would be to utilize maemo task switcher |
| 23:09.04 | StsN800 | or do i have fat fingers;) |
| 23:09.12 | StsN800 | yeah |
| 23:09.59 | StsN800 | looks great though:) |
| 23:10.18 | StsN800 | hope you're having fun doing it |
| 23:10.21 | wazd | StsN800: and what do you think bout customizable number of apps/applets? |
| 23:10.53 | wazd | StsN800: actually I'm a slave in south africa that makes it for water :) |
| 23:11.18 | StsN800 | fair enough |
| 23:11.42 | StsN800 | i raise your wage with a beer;) |
| 23:12.19 | wazd | StsN800: So I think it's pretty good to allow user to choose whether he needs more apps or more applets on top |
| 23:12.59 | StsN800 | yeah, should ofcourse be a setting |
| 23:13.35 | StsN800 | blog about it - good way to document your designs |
