| 01:18.03 | Luke-Jr | hm |
| 01:18.21 | Luke-Jr | I might be tempted for a RX-51 if its keyboard didn't suck even more than the N810's already does |
| 01:18.24 | timeless_mbp | you could have just as easily said "it's new, hopefully that'll mean it'll have great battery life" |
| 01:18.56 | timeless_mbp | Luke-Jr: some people claim it the keyboard will indeed suck less than the n810 |

| 01:19.21 | timeless_mbp | and one would hope that once in a while we'd learn from our mistakes |
| 01:19.29 | doc|home | timeless_mbp: how would its age alone possibly influence battery life? it being thicker may mean it contains a larger battery. |

| 01:20.12 | timeless_mbp | doc|home: newer technology could mean better power management |
| 01:20.15 | timeless_mbp | or the software could be less dumb about power use |
| 01:20.17 | Luke-Jr | doc|home: the N810 no doubt has more room for battery that it doesn't use |
| 01:20.18 | timeless_mbp | there are lots of ways |

| 07:31.50 | ShadowJK | and that the gps uses less power |

| 09:37.07 | johnx | it's not that simple |
| 09:37.27 | Macer | not as simple as building a module for the hardware? |
| 09:37.48 | Macer | is it some ip crap? |
| 09:38.15 | Macer | free and open (hardware not included) |
| 09:38.21 | Macer | lol |
| 09:38.56 | Macer | im asking because im curious how hard it would be to get all the hardware working in gentoo or something |
| 09:39.42 | RST38h | johnx: Could you take a look at http://pastebin.com/m18b42a69 and tell if I am disabling these correctly? |
| 09:40.59 | Macer | well. let me find the info on installing gentoo on this |

| 10:34.21 | LinuxCode | if its symbian, I will never buy a Nokia device again...ever |
| 10:34.34 | lcuk | if its not linux, it wouldnt be a maemo device would it |
| 10:34.44 | aquatix | hm, is the only way to change the system font to alter /etc/fonts/local.conf? |
| 10:35.06 | lcuk | aquatix, easier than changing fonts in liqbase ;) |
| 10:35.20 | lcuk | cant you change the gtk theme |
| 10:35.25 | aquatix | would like to make the default font just a bit smaller |
| 10:35.29 | RST38h | LinuxCode: It is going to run Android |
| 10:35.35 | aquatix | without changing the theme |
| 10:35.38 | lcuk | hold it a bit further away from your face |
| 10:35.43 | aquatix | lcuk: oh, or editing the theme file? |
| 10:35.45 | aquatix | good point |
| 10:35.46 | lcuk | humans have macro zoom for this purpose |
| 10:35.52 | RST38h | LinuxCode: Several real important former Nokia employees said it will run Android |
| 10:35.56 | lcuk | aquatix, that might work too |
| 10:35.58 | aquatix | lcuk: :P |
| 10:36.10 | LinuxCode | RST38h, hmmm |
| 10:36.19 | RST38h | Because Maemo5 is not ready for the release |
| 10:36.23 | lcuk | LinuxCode, if its an open device :) whats to stop that |
| 10:36.28 | aquatix | RST38h: i bet on slackware |
| 10:36.33 | LinuxCode | lcuk, that is the issue mate |
| 10:36.34 | aquatix | didn't nokia buy slackware recently? |
| 10:36.35 | qwerty12_N810 | aquatix: there's a package of the default themes in 14/12pt sizes on some site somewhere |
| 10:36.35 | lcuk | amigaOS! |
| 10:36.39 | RST38h | aquatix: Well, it may run Androidn onSlackware! |
| 10:36.44 | LinuxCode | open and gps and mobile dont go hand in hand |
| 10:36.45 | aquatix | qwerty12_N810: oh, neat |
| 10:36.51 | javispedro | it will run PalmOS. end of story. |
| 10:36.55 | lcuk | LinuxCode, of course it does |
| 10:37.09 | RST38h | javispedro: has it got a 68000 for that? =) |
| 10:37.09 | aquatix | javispedro: garnett or webos? :) |

| 10:37.29 | RST38h | Oh wait, late PalmOS devices actually EMULATED 68000... |
| 10:37.34 | lcuk | :D if it does have a 68k, amigaos is deffo on :D |
| 10:37.35 | javispedro | RST38h, true. |
| 10:37.37 | RST38h | And ran the whole OS on it... |
| 10:37.46 | RST38h | And prevented developers from coding for ARM... |
| 10:37.58 | lcuk | RST38h, havent you been working on a 68k assembler |
| 10:38.04 | RST38h | javis: So, the way I see it, Android is like modern PalmOS :) |
| 10:38.07 | javispedro | RST38h, they used 68k code in the same way Android currently uses Java bytecode. |
| 10:38.10 | javispedro | heh |
| 10:38.19 | RST38h | lcuk: I have been working on so much crap lately... |
| 10:38.21 | javispedro | indeed |
| 10:38.32 | javispedro | cause most PalmSource employees now happen to work for Google... |
| 10:38.36 | RST38h | javis: May it eventually meet the same fate... |
| 10:38.41 | LinuxCode | RST38h, deep down I hope you are wrong |
| 10:38.48 | LinuxCode | but that is because I know nothing about android |
| 10:38.54 | RST38h | LinuxCode: But you KNOW I am right, true? |
| 10:39.03 | RST38h | ;) |
| 10:39.05 | LinuxCode | Id rather see a device that is fully open to any platform |
| 10:39.18 | LinuxCode | mer, fedora-arm, ubuntu-arm, maemo, whatever |
| 10:39.20 | RST38h | Well, you can still buy an Altair 8080 |
| 10:39.29 | RST38h | It is kinda retro but gfully open |
| 10:39.43 | LinuxCode | RST38h, whats the arch of it ? |
| 10:39.45 | LinuxCode | arm ? |
| 10:39.49 | RST38h | And it has no mobile part, so AT&T and TMobile have no control over it |

| 10:40.05 | LinuxCode | well, see, Id like a 3g able device |
| 10:40.19 | lcuk | what about 3d dongle modems - the telecoms people have no control over the greater computer |
| 10:40.22 | LinuxCode | then I could toss my mobile phone |

| 10:41.55 | RST38h | lcuk: So you want to keep your open Linux system closed to closed software hence the condom |
| 10:41.59 | LinuxCode | no manufacturer would be wrong with creating a device that supports that |
| 10:42.08 | lcuk | talk via AT commands dont you |
| 10:42.11 | Stskeeps | LinuxCode: one of the best things about maemo is that you can get rid of it |
| 10:42.15 | lcuk | or modern equiv |
| 10:42.19 | LinuxCode | Stskeeps, agreed |
| 10:42.37 | javispedro | Addison, what?? The problem is that the IBM JVM doesn't boot, probably because it depends on PalmOne libraries or some other unknown thing |
| 10:42.39 | LinuxCode | Stskeeps, Id be very happy if the device kept a kernel or something |
| 10:42.40 | RST38h | lcuk: Seriously, if it is a USB dongle, you talk via USB messages that MAY (but do not have to) encapsulate AT serial protocol |
| 10:42.56 | LinuxCode | if there needs to be closed source rubbish in there, so be it |

| 10:47.05 | LinuxCode | woah! |
| 10:47.07 | RST38h | lcuk: Makes a decent PDA |
| 10:47.16 | lcuk | yes indeed, makes a decent house pooter |
| 10:47.21 | RST38h | lcuk: Yep |
| 10:47.22 | lcuk | just something you can pickup and play with |
| 10:47.23 | Addison | Sorry Javis, I'm being a tool. I just don't like giving up on something important, that's all. |
| 10:47.28 | RST38h | lcuk: So there is no reason to ditch it |
| 10:47.42 | LinuxCode | RST38h, main thing for me is syncability between gpe and evolution |
| 10:47.43 | lcuk | :) i know this |
| 10:47.52 | LinuxCode | that is the best part of the N810 |
| 10:47.56 | LinuxCode | for me anyway |
| 10:47.57 | lcuk | i also like the positioning of mer |
| 10:48.08 | lcuk | which should retain the great aspects we enjoy |
| 10:48.11 | LinuxCode | Stskeeps, I should dual boot mate |
| 10:48.15 | LinuxCode | thanks for that |
| 10:48.19 | lcuk | but give developers a bit of a better framework behind the scenes |
| 10:48.57 | javispedro | LinuxCode, if that sync only worked for repeating events... or todos... |
| 10:49.10 | LinuxCode | javispedro, ? |
| 10:49.17 | LinuxCode | javispedro, care to elaborate on that ? |
| 10:49.23 | Stskeeps | wonders about libgpsbt and libgpsmgr |

| 10:49.50 | Stskeeps | change |
| 10:49.57 | Stskeeps | i wonder wtf they closed sourced them |
| 10:50.05 | javispedro | I already did on tmo, but... repeting events spanning dst changes results in half the datebook shifting 1 hour each sync |

| 10:51.20 | javispedro | (=Opensync) |
| 10:51.28 | LinuxCode | hmmm |
| 10:51.32 | LinuxCode | yeh I use that |
| 10:51.41 | LinuxCode | which frontend for opensync ? |
| 10:51.57 | javispedro | frontend? :P |
| 10:52.00 | LinuxCode | yes |
| 10:52.06 | LinuxCode | opensync are libs |
| 10:52.08 | qwerty12_N810 | Stskeeps: I would guess so. The changelog suggests no other reason. |
| 10:52.15 | Stskeeps | oh, you have the changelog? |
| 10:52.17 | Stskeeps | i should read that |
| 10:52.18 | LinuxCode | so what are you using to actually sync |
| 10:52.25 | Stskeeps | why didn't i think of that.. |
| 10:52.28 | LinuxCode | msynctool ? |
| 10:52.29 | Stskeeps | gives qwerty12_N810 a cookie |
| 10:52.32 | LinuxCode | multisync ? |
| 10:52.41 | javispedro | multisync-gui |
| 10:52.44 | LinuxCode | k |
| 10:53.38 | javispedro | I gave a look a few months at what I believe is the source to that, and saw a few things |
| 10:53.40 | javispedro | it uses XML, |
| 10:53.52 | javispedro | (vdate) |
| 10:54.00 | javispedro | Evo uses some custom fields, |
| 10:54.06 | javispedro | the gpesyncd plugin fails to fill them |
| 10:54.37 | javispedro | and chaos ensues. |
| 10:54.49 | javispedro | e.g. I remember that repeating event end dates are not synced. |
| 10:55.26 | lcuk | wonder show sketched calendar entries can be repeated |

| 15:16.43 | wazd | In fact it's simple marketing, even if it will be sold for $400 under the contract, it wont be such a mass device as an iPhone -> much much less developers. So it's really bad idea to make brand new platform without the software |

| 18:27.10 | wert613 | *gasps at the thought* |
| 18:27.35 | Macer | well. i think the problem with mer is that it is trying to be cross platformed |
| 18:27.54 | Macer | instead of focusing on one piece of hardware.. which is good i suppose.. but... :) |
| 18:27.58 | qwerty12_N810 | Macer: parted and cfdisk are in extras-devel. |
| 18:28.21 | Stskeeps | Macer: bullshit. most of the hw has problems cos we can't preinstall it into a image due to legal issues. |
| 18:28.37 | Stskeeps | for the stuff we do have access to, it works pretty well |
| 18:28.56 | rkirti | Macer: thats the whole point and benefit of Mer - being cross-paltformed |
| 18:29.20 | rkirti | s/paltformed/platformed |
| 18:29.44 | Macer | Stskeeps: and you will constantly run into those problems on every new piece of hardware you wish to support |
| 18:30.16 | Macer | so now the devs are like spokes. where you are moving very limited resources into getting one thing to work on one piece of hardware while other developers work on other things :) |
| 18:30.28 | Stskeeps | now, you're misunderstanding some things. |
| 18:30.37 | Macer | it is a very left handed methodology |
| 18:31.08 | Macer | instead of one thing at a time you are spreading resources to solve multiple problems with less resources than are available to do so |
| 18:31.27 | Stskeeps | first off, the UI code, APIs, and everything, is by definition cross-platform. it'll view and act in same way everywhere. the stuff we've been given will act like that everywhere, no matter the hardware |
| 18:32.01 | Stskeeps | second, the juicy stuff like network management, bluetooth, input methods, we've had to work our asses off getting to work, as we can't have it. |
| 18:32.29 | Macer | can't have it? |
| 18:32.47 | Stskeeps | yes, it's closed source and we don't have the fremantle ones. |
| 18:32.51 | Macer | ah! |
| 18:32.54 | Macer | ok :) |
| 18:33.17 | Macer | and using closed source premade bins doesn't work? |
| 18:33.33 | Stskeeps | we don't have them, and the ones we have is built for ARMv7 |
| 18:33.41 | Macer | wow that sucks |
| 18:33.55 | Macer | why are they closed? |
| 18:34.00 | Macer | :) if you don't mind my asking |
| 18:34.04 | Stskeeps | now, let me return to what we're actually doing, because I want to knock this discussion to the ground once and for all. |
| 18:34.20 | Macer | hides under a rock |
| 18:35.05 | GeneralAntilles | Macer, differentiation. |
| 18:35.17 | GeneralAntilles | icd2 pretty much totally kick's network-manager's ass. |
| 18:35.22 | Stskeeps | we have a mission to go ahead and reconstruct Maemo. we have to remake a shitload of stuff - they're closed, differentation, and fix many broken packages. |
| 18:35.43 | Stskeeps | it's not a fremantle backport as such, if it was, we could spend 9 months on it with project dying 3 months after |
| 18:36.15 | Macer | i still don't understand why they would have it closed off |
| 18:36.30 | Stskeeps | Macer: it's very bloody simple - being ahead |
| 18:36.33 | Stskeeps | and i don't blame them for this |
| 18:36.33 | javispedro | that's unfortunately true. most people who want backports tend to use them as "trials", then decide the next device is good for them. |
| 18:37.00 | Stskeeps | what we are doing with Mer is giving you a very powerful OS, development environment and putting it in the hands of the community |
| 18:37.14 | Stskeeps | it's a bloody hard process we've done for soon a year now |
| 18:37.23 | Stskeeps | but it's been worth it. we can do really really neat things. |
| 18:37.24 | Macer | Stskeeps: so the main goal is a real open OS for portables? |
| 18:37.35 | Macer | instead of the psuedo open stuff? |
| 18:37.46 | Macer | with closed network and bt managers? |
| 18:38.04 | Macer | you're going to have to write your own license :) |
| 18:38.13 | Stskeeps | we want to have a platform that's fully open, but we do respect there might be added bonus's (apps, codecs, etc) on top of the open system |
| 18:38.36 | Stskeeps | the problem with Maemo was that the 80% open source are very difficult to have working properly and user friendly without the remaining 20% |
| 18:39.00 | javispedro | btw Stskeeps, do you also think icd2 kicks NetworkManager ass? |
| 18:39.00 | Macer | wow that sucks :) |
| 18:39.11 | javispedro | or are fine with NM? |
| 18:39.21 | Stskeeps | javispedro: if connman gets sane i wouldn't mind it. |
| 18:39.55 | Macer | Stskeeps: sounds like things are only going to get worse if you decide to take a qt route with it |
| 18:39.59 | Stskeeps | Macer: but what you're seeing around you is the hard work of the community for a year, and something that will last long after the N810 is dead |
| 18:40.07 | javispedro | what I mean is that I built an icd2 stub when testing my wpa_supp library (and to do some more -- maybe borderline legal-- things you imagine) |
| 18:40.20 | javispedro | could expand it |
| 18:40.39 | Stskeeps | Macer: we could have done a fremantle backport and be done with it, and practically have wasted our time |
| 18:40.47 | Stskeeps | Mer is a fresh new approach to the Maemo platform. |
| 18:41.31 | Stskeeps | and while the UI isn't perfect, mostly because we don't have friggen open source icons for many things, the foundation is bloody solid |
| 18:41.51 | Macer | are you not allowed to use hildon also? |
| 18:41.59 | Stskeeps | of course, but fremantle icons are closed source |
| 18:42.04 | Macer | oh wtf :) |
| 18:42.12 | Stskeeps | even translation strings |
| 18:42.20 | Macer | that totally sucks |
| 18:42.26 | Stskeeps | so, once we're done, we have a OS that's really in the hands of the community |
| 18:42.32 | Stskeeps | and Nokia has been helpful with a lot of things. |
| 18:42.37 | Macer | well. i guess some poor guy was stuck in a room making icons all day |
| 18:43.05 | Stskeeps | but i get really pissed off when people say Mer is shit. my usual answer is "so what did you do to help it along the way?" - I can't ask that with you obviously. |
| 18:43.30 | qwerty12_N810 | Stskeeps: on that note: do HildonFileChoosers still look bad compared to the GTK+ one? It'd be nice if "Hildon = True" could finally be set in bluetooth-sendto. ;) |
| 18:43.35 | Macer | Stskeeps: it is hard to help test it when you can't really do the things you need to do in order to do so |
| 18:43.53 | Macer | like wifi tethering on an adhoc phone |
| 18:43.53 | Macer | ;) |
| 18:44.01 | Stskeeps | adhoc phone is a problem with NetworkManager |
| 18:44.05 | Stskeeps | look up the ubuntu bugs for it |
| 18:44.17 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: yeah, currently :/ wazd's working on replacement icons |
| 18:44.19 | ShadowJK | adhoc phone must use shitloads of power |
| 18:44.31 | Macer | ShadowJK: it does on the phone yes ;) |
| 18:44.37 | Stskeeps | Macer: also, why not just use PAN? :P |
| 18:44.48 | Macer | Stskeeps: no pan support in android yet .. it's a G1 |
| 18:44.54 | ShadowJK | on the other hand, my e75 has been burning a hole in my pocket on bluetooth too, except when they conspired and switched roles so that n810 began burning hole insteaed |
| 18:44.55 | qwerty12_N810 | Stskeeps: ah cool. I'd give wazd vodka but I'd be arrested :( |
| 18:45.07 | Macer | Stskeeps: but see.. you say "look for an ubuntu bug" |
| 18:45.11 | javispedro | intel described the NM situation fine: http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/files/2009/06/slide5.png |
| 18:45.13 | Stskeeps | it's based on ubuntu! |
| 18:45.16 | Macer | i know :) |
| 18:45.23 | Stskeeps | we inherit all the problems with it |
| 18:45.33 | Macer | but to be "based on" and to "be" .... mer loses its identity |
| 18:45.41 | Macer | is it maemo.... ubuntu.. or its own thing? |
| 18:45.52 | Macer | to tell a user simply "check ubuntu's forums out" |
| 18:46.05 | Stskeeps | does it matter what it is? it's the power of ubuntu with the mobile ability of maemo |
| 18:46.41 | Stskeeps | and that's what makes it powerful for developers, hackers and users |
| 18:46.43 | Macer | Stskeeps: but if someone has a problem with maemo.. they ask it in relation to maemo even though it is based on debian |
| 18:46.57 | javispedro | Macer, I'm not a user ;) |
| 18:46.57 | Stskeeps | sure, and if someone has a problem with GTK we send it upstream |
| 18:47.02 | Macer | it is rare someone says "check debian's forums" |
| 18:47.04 | Stskeeps | there's no black and white in this matter |
| 18:47.04 | Macer | :) |
| 18:47.13 | ShadowJK | everything has an upstream :) |
| 18:47.45 | Macer | ShadowJK: then that is not a new and fresh approach |
| 18:47.48 | Macer | that is augmentation |
| 18:48.05 | Stskeeps | everything's augmentation in computer science. |
| 18:48.13 | Macer | Stskeeps: yeah i suppose so ;) |
| 18:48.27 | javispedro | wonders what Nokia has in store for icd. |
| 18:48.32 | wert613 | Augmenting what Stskeeps? |
| 18:48.34 | Stskeeps | but compared to Maemo, development for Maemo, we're lightyears ahead. |
| 18:48.52 | Stskeeps | in the areas we wanted to try and see if we could improve |
| 18:48.56 | Macer | Stskeeps: yes i suppose that is true in regard to a portable device OS |
| 18:49.29 | Macer | Stskeeps: i'd have loved to see you pick up the qtablet development though |
| 18:49.42 | Macer | instead of sticking with a gtk based ui for mer |
| 18:49.52 | Stskeeps | we are going to go the Qt way, but the stars have to change a bit. |
| 18:49.53 | Macer | and once the hardware issues are ironed out i'm sure it will be a wonderful OS |
| 18:49.54 | Stskeeps | qtablet is a demo. |
| 18:49.55 | lcuk | but that is not ready itself and that would require much more |
| 18:50.09 | Stskeeps | it's cool, but it is the same as changing the WM for Mer. |
| 18:50.11 | Macer | Stskeeps: i thought you said qtablet went stale |
| 18:50.15 | Stskeeps | which we are actually doing |
| 18:50.42 | lcuk | there are people working on it, and there is work ongoing towards getting qt stable and ready, and then when the qt upstream is ready it should be usable |
| 18:50.59 | Macer | lcuk: the qt based stuff looks awesome |
| 18:51.03 | lcuk | meh |
| 18:51.06 | Macer | :) |
| 18:51.09 | Stskeeps | and we already have Qt "for Maemo" in our repositories |
| 18:51.12 | Macer | what can i say. i'm a sucker for qt |
| 18:51.31 | lcuk | qt has a lot of features and i am impressed by the library |
| 18:51.50 | Macer | lcuk: sorry. i'm just a user. to me.. i think it just looks pretty |
| 18:51.54 | Macer | :) |
| 18:51.59 | lcuk | but theres the language barrier and the fact its always a compromise and you have to worry about 4 os's |
| 18:52.06 | Macer | it has a better look and feel than the gtk based stuff |
| 18:52.26 | lcuk | it shouldnt have, they both use native widgets i believe |
| 18:52.37 | lcuk | look maybe |
| 18:52.39 | Stskeeps | Macer: i'm not a gtk fan for what it's worth - the majority of work done in Mer is not what people see when they touch the display. |
| 18:52.42 | lcuk | but thats themability |
| 18:52.48 | Stskeeps | but it's what makes it possible to have the thing above |
| 18:52.57 | Macer | lcuk: that's what a lot of people say |
| 18:53.08 | Stskeeps | we have 166 packages, each carefully fixed, ported, developed if need be |
| 18:53.11 | Macer | but for some reason it just looks and feels different |
| 18:53.36 | lcuk | macer, whilst there is great power with qt, you still need to be very careful in what you use or your almighty powerful app runs and feels like shit |
| 18:53.48 | Macer | lcuk: isn't that any app? ;) |
| 18:54.03 | lcuk | not really, at least with gtk its hard to link bits together lol |
| 18:54.09 | Stskeeps | goes sit in the couch and drink coffee |
| 18:54.23 | Macer | lcuk: that is like saying.. it's ok if it's broken.. it still runs and fast enough ;) |
| 18:54.25 | lcuk | made a funky particle system and is surprised by how well it runs |
| 18:54.40 | lcuk | especially so on my 810 |
| 18:54.46 | lcuk | i made the x41 sweat for a while |
| 18:54.58 | javispedro | is watching SMKart at nearly 55fps (no zoom though) |
| 18:55.08 | Macer | SMKart? |
| 18:55.13 | javispedro | Super Mario Kart! :) |
| 18:55.13 | lcuk | supermario |
| 18:55.17 | Macer | which one? |
| 18:55.23 | javispedro | snes, of course |
| 18:55.27 | Macer | lol |
| 18:55.29 | lcuk | hows audio? |
| 18:55.40 | javispedro | no audio :P (yes I know, cheating ;) ) |
| 18:55.45 | Macer | n810 has a powervr? |
| 18:55.54 | lcuk | yeah but not usable |
| 18:55.58 | lcuk | why would i need powervr tho |
| 18:56.07 | lcuk | in original liqbase i had a particle field with 2000 elements |
| 18:56.23 | lcuk | i had to reduce that number though because now i am having them interacting with other pieces |
| 18:56.26 | Macer | not usable because of hardware or software? |
| 18:56.37 | Macer | like.. did they unsolder a connection .. or just have an IP issue? |
| 18:56.39 | lcuk | drivers, i thought you knew this |
| 18:56.41 | javispedro | also, I can't enable the gcc optimizer in yet another file or I get garbled graphics |
| 18:56.50 | Macer | lcuk: yeah... but i just had to confirm |
| 18:56.51 | Macer | :) |
| 18:56.59 | javispedro | wishes qgil luck for that :) |
| 18:57.06 | Macer | sigh |
| 18:57.12 | lcuk | quim said there might be something in the pipeline |
| 18:57.14 | Macer | just sucks to be sitting on a gpu that you can't use |
| 18:57.33 | *** join/#maemo andrei1089 (n=andrei10@93.122.218.77) |
| 18:57.35 | Macer | pictures real 3D based desktops on his N810 |
| 18:57.37 | lcuk | yeah |
| 18:57.50 | lcuk | i keep thinking about what can be roped in as a coprocessor |
| 18:57.53 | lcuk | to help with rendering |
| 18:57.56 | Macer | heh |
| 18:58.04 | lcuk | i have a real3d desktop running on 810 |
| 18:58.05 | Macer | figured someone would have reverse engineered some drivers by now |
| 18:58.13 | javispedro | the IVA thing might be more useful to you |
| 18:58.15 | Macer | lcuk: oh? |
| 18:58.18 | javispedro | , lcuk, don't it ? |
| 18:58.32 | lcuk | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMXp0Dg_UaY |
| 18:58.44 | lcuk | well, scale invariant lol with nice zooming |
| 18:59.14 | javispedro | I once heard you use XV? |
| 18:59.18 | lcuk | i keep pondering how much hardship it would be to have completely rotatable sketches |
| 18:59.23 | lcuk | you heard right |
| 19:00.16 | lcuk | such a long time ago now that video |
| 19:00.19 | Macer | lcuk: wow that is pretty |
| 19:00.36 | lcuk | its evolved even more :) |
| 19:00.47 | lcuk | and more since the latest vid again lol |
| 19:01.23 | Macer | and this without the powervr huh? |
| 19:01.26 | lcuk | yeah |
| 19:01.35 | lcuk | completely software rendered |
| 19:01.40 | Macer | wonder what you could do if you had access to it |
| 19:01.43 | Macer | heh |
| 19:01.50 | lcuk | hence my question up there |
| 19:01.50 | Macer | that is very nice looking though |
| 19:01.59 | lcuk | biggest slowdown for me realistically is image loading and saving |
| 19:02.18 | lcuk | and lardman mentioned about a libjpegondsp project |
| 19:02.31 | lcuk | or something similar |
| 19:02.33 | qwerty12_N810 | lcuk: Do you still save to ~/.liqbase/somewhere? |
| 19:02.36 | Macer | that thing looks like it would make your n810 burn a hole in your leg if it were resting on it |
| 19:02.47 | lcuk | qwerty12_N810, with what - photos or sketches |
| 19:02.55 | qwerty12_N810 | both, I guess :) |
| 19:03.06 | Macer | but yeah.. that is a very nice ui you have going there |
| 19:03.09 | lcuk | technically now its in multitple places |
| 19:03.15 | lcuk | im in the middle of a transition to database |
| 19:03.23 | lcuk | so, the sketch editor is saving as files |
| 19:03.29 | lcuk | and then they are being sucked into a database |
| 19:03.32 | javispedro | ls |
| 19:03.41 | javispedro | damn focus stealing, sorry :P |
| 19:03.44 | lcuk | Macer, burn a hole in leg? |
| 19:04.08 | lcuk | qwerty12_N810, the database is vital to allow images to be saved onto the webserver |
| 19:04.09 | qwerty12_N810 | Stskeeps: is maemo-launcher fuckzored in Mer? |
| 19:04.17 | lcuk | and hence back to my other machines |
| 19:04.17 | qwerty12_N810 | lcuk: ah, cool |
| 19:04.45 | lcuk | http://liqbase.net/liqbase_net_preview.png |
| 19:04.53 | lcuk | and the sketches from the webserver are available as svg |
| 19:05.04 | lcuk | which gets over peoples concerns about random file formats :) |
| 19:05.36 | lcuk | new stars fucking rocks :D |
| 19:05.55 | Macer | heh |
| 19:05.59 | lcuk | i thought it wouldnt run well on my 810 after i came back from x41 |
| 19:06.03 | lcuk | but its sweet |
| 19:06.10 | qwerty12_N810 | I see idiots these days complaining that they'd rather have a flash YT video when given an animated gif :) |
| 19:06.23 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: hmm? shouldn't be |
| 19:06.36 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: i presume you're talking 0.15 |
| 19:06.59 | lcuk | qwerty12_N810, i can selectively block flash animations. with a clicker to run it if i want. with ani gifs, i have to disable everything |
| 19:07.02 | lcuk | i agree with them |
| 19:07.13 | qwerty12_N810 | Stskeeps: Tomaszd sent me http://imgur.com/1Pcte.jpg and when I added maemo-launcher support, I checked that it worked on my tablet |
| 19:07.45 | qwerty12_N810 | lcuk: I'm not talking about ads, just when one wishes to willingly see content |
| 19:07.54 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: i would assume it would have died before then , - he's running :Devel, so i wouldn't hold it against Tear if it crashes :P |
| 19:08.18 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: problem is probably that tear's vala is patched or something :) |
| 19:08.28 | Stskeeps | we'll see |
| 19:08.32 | qwerty12_N810 | Tear uses plain vala |
| 19:08.33 | Macer | extras-devel still has a few new things on it |
| 19:08.39 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: not according to bundyo |
| 19:08.39 | qwerty12_N810 | The one in Extras |
| 19:08.40 | lcuk | qwerty12_N810, thats the problem, i cannot stand animated content - so i disable it |
| 19:08.49 | lcuk | i cannot read a page if there is something flickering at the side |
| 19:09.00 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: well, at least according to tomasz who says that, .. :P |
| 19:09.04 | lcuk | so now, on my machine animated gifs are ALL blocked |
| 19:09.11 | Stskeeps | grabs a cookie |
| 19:09.12 | qwerty12_N810 | Stskeeps: I build Tear fine using Jaffa's build of Vala |
| 19:09.14 | lcuk | to unblock for a single one, its a real pita |
| 19:09.25 | Stskeeps | qwerty12_N810: alright - shouldn't wonder me mer is slightly fucked atm though :P |

| 19:10.47 | Macer | :) |
| 19:10.51 | javispedro | the whole maemo-launcher thing should have an escape pod. something like maemo-invoker --just-launch-in-this-process. wonder how difficult it is... |
| 19:11.03 | qwerty12_N810 | Macer: apt-get install it |
| 19:11.25 | qwerty12_N810 | I never made the section user/ which means it won't show in Application Manager |

| 19:15.21 | javispedro | i am yet to read m-l source code but I guess it works by maemo-invoker sending the so path to the maemo-launcher daemon via socket, with maemo-launcher forking, dlopening the file and just branching to it, in the process getting most of the glib or gtk static initialized only once |
| 19:15.59 | Macer | qwerty12_N810: error opening terminal: xterm. |
| 19:16.01 | Macer | :) |
| 19:16.05 | javispedro | so maemo-invoker could possibly replicate that part of maemo-launcher, with no fork |
| 19:16.10 | qwerty12_N810 | apt-get install ncurses-base |
| 19:16.17 | qwerty12_N810 | ^ Macer |
| 19:16.26 | qwerty12_N810 | Thanks, I should add that to deps |
| 19:16.26 | Macer | ah crap. sorry. :) |
| 19:16.41 | Macer | i didn't even think to install ncurses heh |
| 19:16.49 | qwerty12_N810 | No, don't be, it's my fault for assuming that it comes by default :* |
| 19:16.50 | javispedro | (and is the glib/gtk static initialization so costly maemo-launcher actually helps performance?) |
| 19:17.04 | qwerty12_N810 | (Not a bad assumption, but this is Maemo. :)) |
| 19:17.23 | Stskeeps | javispedro: yes |
| 19:17.30 | Stskeeps | javispedro: maemo-launcher helps a lot |
| 19:17.31 | Stskeeps | :P |
| 19:17.59 | javispedro | ah, it also probably helps replace prelinking |

| 19:19.31 | Macer | alrighty. it's working. thanks qwerty... i figure in another day or so i'll have maemo back on the SD |
| 19:19.39 | Macer | have to decide how much space to give it and all that fun stuff |

| 19:28.12 | qwerty12_N810 | I think I read on tmo that it was "effectively discontinued" |
| 19:28.35 | Macer | well. didn't know the internal was 2G :) that's pretty awesome |
| 19:28.43 | Macer | can put maemo on that and keep my full 16G SD |

| 22:29.38 | woglinde | RobStev nope maemo has its own repos |
| 22:30.13 | RobStev | there plenty of apps ? |
| 22:30.30 | woglinde | in extras and extras-devel are plenty of apps |
| 22:30.46 | RobStev | cool =) |
| 22:31.14 | RobStev | i want to get aircrack on it does it support injection ? |
| 22:31.16 | woglinde | http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008 too |
| 22:31.25 | woglinde | sorry dont know |
| 22:32.17 | RobStev | thanks anyway looks like a great machine |
| 22:32.41 | RobStev | like the iphone but with out apple heh |
| 22:36.58 | GeneralAntilles | RobStev, wait until the next release. |
| 22:37.27 | RobStev | when does it come out ? |
| 22:37.39 | GeneralAntilles | Should be the next couple months. |
| 22:37.50 | GeneralAntilles | But it'll be orders of magnitude better in all areas. |
| 22:39.09 | RobStev | GeneralAntilles thanks for info |
| 22:39.35 | GeneralAntilles | RobStev, http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/08/nokia-rx-51-tablet-captured-in-the-wild/ |
| 22:42.34 | sp3000 | 47 57 66 82 80, that is all |
| 22:42.48 | RobStev | i wonder if it will still be open source. |
| 22:43.43 | GeneralAntilles | RobStev, it'll be more open source, in fact. |
| 22:44.20 | RobStev | awsome =) |
| 22:44.45 | GeneralAntilles | RobStev, open WiFi by default, for instance. |
| 22:44.58 | GeneralAntilles | Potentially an open source GSM stack. |

| 22:57.50 | jaska | whew |
| 22:58.42 | jaska | guess i'll have to make a conductive stylus to use the screen |
| 23:00.39 | GeneralAntilles | jaska, why? |
| 23:00.50 | GeneralAntilles | It's resistive, and it includes a stylus. |
| 23:01.03 | GeneralAntilles | Thank god (resistive, not the stylus necessarily). |
| 23:01.20 | GeneralAntilles | I dunno about you, but capacitive is goddamn impossible to use for any detail work. |
| 23:01.38 | jaska | ahh |
| 23:01.51 | jaska | i hate capacitative ones |
| 23:02.06 | GeneralAntilles | Who doesn't |
| 23:02.17 | GeneralAntilles | It's good for really short and quite work. |
| 23:02.28 | GeneralAntilles | But anything time consuming or detail-oriented is impossible. |
| 23:02.52 | jaska | and doesnt work with nails or stylus |
| 23:03.13 | GeneralAntilles | I'm really ready for MyPaint on Fremantle. |
| 23:03.18 | GeneralAntilles | Should be better with the Cortex. |
| 23:05.27 | GeneralAntilles | jaska, just be aware that most everybody babbling idiotically on Talk right now is an idiot and willfully ignorant on all of the information we've already collected about the RX-51 (from the SDK, kernel changelogs, etc.). ;) |
| 23:06.31 | woglinde | general whats the dsp number? |
| 23:06.40 | GeneralAntilles | C64x |
| 23:06.53 | GeneralAntilles | 430MHz or so. |
| 23:07.00 | woglinde | ah cool |
| 23:07.10 | woglinde | but not the excat? |
| 23:07.22 | woglinde | what omap was it? |
| 23:07.25 | GeneralAntilles | h.264 @ D1 should be no problem. |
| 23:07.26 | woglinde | 3530 I bet not |
| 23:07.30 | GeneralAntilles | OMAP3430 |
| 23:07.37 | woglinde | ah let me see |
| 23:07.43 | GeneralAntilles | woglinde, I stuck all the stats on the OMAP wikipedia page. |
| 23:08.03 | woglinde | the last days I updated the openoe gstreamer-ti stuff |
| 23:08.10 | GeneralAntilles | ~OMAP is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments_OMAP |
| 23:08.11 | infobot | ...but omap is already something else... |
| 23:08.16 | woglinde | to the latest dvdsk version |
| 23:08.18 | GeneralAntilles | ~omap |
| 23:08.19 | infobot | http://OMAP.com/ or Texas Instrument's OMAP Platform is comprised of high-performance, power efficient processors, a robust software infrastructure and comprehensive support network for the rapid development of differentiated internet appliances, 2.5G and 3G wireless handsets and PDAs, and other multimedia-enhanced devices. #ol |
| 23:08.30 | woglinde | general I look directly at TI |
| 23:08.46 | GeneralAntilles | woglinde, the wikipedia page is based on TI's info. |
| 23:08.55 | GeneralAntilles | It's just a little more accessibly formatted. ;) |
| 23:13.14 | woglinde | hm |
| 23:13.21 | woglinde | omap 3430 has one dsp |
| 23:13.28 | woglinde | and one image processor |
| 23:13.53 | GeneralAntilles | Cortex A8, SGX 530, C64x, and ISP. |
| 23:14.28 | woglinde | jepp |
| 23:15.07 | GeneralAntilles | Not sure how usable the ISP is for anything that's not just the camera, though. |
| 23:15.38 | woglinde | hm strange no softwarekit for this proc on the ti site |

| 23:22.27 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah, they're basically the same. |
| 23:23.04 | GeneralAntilles | Some proprietary cellular features from the OMAP34x aren't included in the OMAP35x and the ball pitch is slightly larger in the OMAP35x. |
| 23:24.06 | woglinde | like hollywood mobile tv? |
| 23:24.49 | johnx | thought he heard something about the 35xx being available in smaller quantities |
| 23:25.16 | GeneralAntilles | Well, catalog item. |
| 23:25.20 | woglinde | johny yes |
| 23:25.26 | GeneralAntilles | But that's not a technical detail. |
| 23:25.34 | GeneralAntilles | Just two different distribution channels. |
| 23:25.42 | johnx | shouldn't jump into the middle of the conversation :) |

| 23:26.14 | johnx | allo GeneralAntilles |
| 23:26.22 | johnx | fun times recently, huh? :D |
| 23:26.27 | GeneralAntilles | How's the grind? |
| 23:26.30 | GeneralAntilles | Something like that. |
| 23:26.34 | johnx | grindy |
| 23:26.41 | GeneralAntilles | Sadly a lot of my enthusiasm has been bled off over the past two years. :( |
| 23:26.48 | johnx | but making me think about some interesting ideas, such as PIM |
| 23:26.58 | woglinde | I think I will buy this one |
| 23:27.07 | woglinde | if it is available at september |
| 23:27.08 | woglinde | http://www.myigep.com/ |
| 23:27.26 | GeneralAntilles | Those September announcement/October release rumors better not be true. |
| 23:27.26 | johnx | still neck and neck between the pandora and rx51 |
| 23:27.37 | johnx | hilarious to see the touchbook come out of nowhere and ship first |
| 23:27.42 | johnx | I want one of each :D |
| 23:27.48 | woglinde | johnx nope |
| 23:27.55 | woglinde | touchbook isnt new |
| 23:27.58 | GeneralAntilles | I'll laugh my ass off in depression if Nokia hands out tablets at the Summit then wants to talk about Harmattan. |
| 23:28.42 | johnx | woglinde, I know, but it showed up *after* we knew details about the rx51 and pandora |
| 23:29.23 | johnx | unless I'm not remembering things in the correct order :) |
| 23:29.26 | johnx | also very possible |
| 23:29.48 | GeneralAntilles | You are. |
| 23:30.37 | lcuk | waves o |
| 23:30.52 | GeneralAntilles | (remembering things correctly) |
| 23:31.12 | johnx | ah |
| 23:31.17 | lcuk | doesnt that touchbook have 2 massive spikes |
| 23:31.32 | johnx | for fighting off muggers |
| 23:31.38 | GeneralAntilles | For impaling lcuk upon. |
| 23:31.43 | lcuk | the kind that appealed to put on steering wheels for bad driver avoidance |
| 23:31.58 | lcuk | :D heh, buffy tablets |
| 23:32.13 | lcuk | tsk tsk GeneralAntilles, you are turning into the grinch lol |
| 23:32.34 | johnx | He was always the grinch, but he was wearing that santa suit for a while :D |
| 23:32.36 | woglinde | only pity with touchbook you need an extra sisusb adapter |
| 23:32.49 | GeneralAntilles | Nokia set me on fire in that suit. |
| 23:32.50 | lcuk | lol ahhh, the forced smile on itt |
| 23:32.50 | johnx | or a nice nx server :D |

| 23:35.10 | GeneralAntilles | I need to find a quieter fan for the chipset on the Atom board. |
| 23:35.23 | johnx | does 1280x720 when pressed to the limit |
| 23:35.25 | GeneralAntilles | It's got to be the loudest 40mm fan in existence. |
| 23:35.29 | GeneralAntilles | Competes with my G5 for loudness. |
| 23:35.38 | lcuk | johnx, mm |
| 23:35.43 | lcuk | thought they did full hd |
| 23:35.48 | johnx | people are discussing the possibility of 1920x1080, but I doubt it will ever show up |
| 23:36.11 | johnx | unless someone with some crazy optimization skills steps up to the challenge (nudge, nudge) |
| 23:36.13 | lcuk | dual box multisourced data? |
| 23:36.26 | GeneralAntilles | 720p is "full HD" |
| 23:36.29 | lcuk | errr crossfire or whatever nvidati call it |
| 23:36.37 | GeneralAntilles | lol |
| 23:36.39 | GeneralAntilles | SLI |
| 23:36.41 | GeneralAntilles | No. |
| 23:36.44 | johnx | ahaha, two beagles, doing half of the image |
| 23:36.54 | GeneralAntilles | No way to keep them cleanly in sync. |
| 23:37.03 | johnx | hmmm |
| 23:37.05 | lcuk | well thats what sli is for |
| 23:37.28 | johnx | oooh, there has to be a way :) |
| 23:37.51 | lcuk | :) |
| 23:37.54 | GeneralAntilles | johnx, sounds like it's time to spend some money finding out. ;) |
| 23:38.12 | johnx | I think our resident super-optimizer should take a crack at it :D |
| 23:38.30 | johnx | I think I'll be ok with 1280x720 |
| 23:38.51 | woglinde | GeneralAntilles bye a board without fan |
| 23:38.56 | lcuk | what if you couldnt get quite so high |
| 23:39.08 | lcuk | or rather, didnt try to |
| 23:39.38 | woglinde | GeneralAntilles and with out proper poulsbo support the atom suckz at video |
| 23:39.43 | lcuk | did i see pictures of video out cables on the leaked shots? |
| 23:39.53 | woglinde | okay I am off now |
| 23:39.55 | woglinde | good nite |
| 23:39.59 | lcuk | gnite woglinde |
| 23:40.07 | johnx | yup, lcuk. got your basic PAL/NTSC out |
| 23:40.13 | lcuk | same as wii? |
| 23:40.15 | johnx | ~720x480 |
| 23:40.16 | GeneralAntilles | woglinde, more expensive. |
| 23:40.39 | johnx | hates the atom processors |
| 23:40.49 | lcuk | johnx, sounds like almost broadcast res |
| 23:40.50 | javispedro | wonder how it's going to support weird tv out resolutions |
| 23:40.57 | lcuk | could you push 800*480 out of it? |
| 23:40.59 | GeneralAntilles | They're making great 98 SE to Ubuntu migration machines right now. |
| 23:41.05 | GeneralAntilles | For $150 a machine. |
| 23:41.23 | GeneralAntilles | johnx, 640x480 on the second framebuffer. |
| 23:41.26 | johnx | yeah, but somehow it feels weirdly inconsistent in processing speed |
| 23:41.34 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah |
| 23:41.43 | johnx | as in firefox is painful |
| 23:41.48 | johnx | and youtube is a crapshoot for me |
| 23:41.53 | GeneralAntilles | It screeches to a halt startlingly quickly. |
| 23:41.55 | johnx | maybe I'm pushing it too hard or something |
| 23:41.56 | lcuk | which device johnx? |
| 23:42.06 | GeneralAntilles | But, meh, inventory control and PoS software are pretty lightweight. |
| 23:42.06 | johnx | asus netbook, from work |
| 23:42.14 | lcuk | what res are you pushing it at? |
| 23:42.24 | lcuk | i see most netbooks on the ragged edge graphically |
| 23:42.29 | GeneralAntilles | johnx, the dual core ones are better. |
| 23:42.35 | lcuk | gfx wise |
| 23:43.14 | johnx | just 1024xWhatever |
| 23:43.18 | johnx | whatever the internal res is |
| 23:43.23 | johnx | and it's definitely CPU bound |
| 23:44.00 | lcuk | boo |
| 23:44.38 | johnx | yeah |
| 23:45.02 | johnx | the surfing experience is slower on my n800 but actually more consistent...which is just totally weird |
| 23:47.29 | lcuk | johnx, maybe other background processes |
| 23:48.00 | lcuk | the ubuntu media scan thing got me on my x41 till i nuked it from orbit |
| 23:48.16 | GeneralAntilles | No, it's not other processes. |
| 23:48.25 | javispedro | yet another gcc weirdness. it's optimizing "byte & 128 ? 1 : 0" into "lsr rd, byte, #7", completely ignoring all the 24 upper bits, which are set to random values. |
| 23:50.05 | lcuk | random comments are likely using optimized irc clients |
| 23:51.16 | javispedro | ^^^ s/random/ranting :) |
| 23:51.40 | lcuk | javispedro, that is an ARM specific optimization then i gather |
| 23:52.16 | lcuk | because if so, it means there is hope, for too long its been easiest solution to leave arm chip in thumb mode and treat it like a baby chip |
| 23:53.37 | javispedro | there's definitely some hope. I've actually seen it using the conditional field! |
| 23:54.55 | lcuk | yeah, looks good |
| 23:55.16 | lcuk | i recall there have been teams of students working on optimization tasks for gcc |
| 23:55.24 | lcuk | (its a good learning experience for compiler logic) |
| 23:55.53 | lcuk | errr cpu opcode logic |
| 23:55.59 | javispedro | and one of the hardest parts of computer science |
