| 00:24.35 | jaem | but I could get an 8GB c4 on sale for ~$25 last spring |
| 00:24.45 | Macer | but you lose speed |
| 00:24.48 | jaem | that's not bad, I suppose, but the gap is annoying |
| 00:24.48 | Macer | ;) |
| 00:24.49 | jaem | yes |
| 00:24.58 | jaem | all I have is cheap Kingston c4's anyway |
| 00:25.18 | Macer | i bought a 4G for $11 just because i wanted the minisd adapter |
| 00:25.28 | Macer | and figured the extra 4G c6 would be good in my phone |
| 00:25.31 | jaem | but I'd like to be able to store several movies AND all of Wikipedia :/ |
| 00:25.34 | Macer | then the 4G sd broke haha |

| 02:52.46 | neostrider-bzk | the thing is, you will probably need to comment a few stuff before building |
| 02:53.09 | neostrider-bzk | Luke-Jr: thing is that I cant seem to find a straight , simple, documentation about it |
| 02:53.28 | man_in_shack | ok, yeah |
| 02:53.44 | man_in_shack | seriously, neostrider-bzk, you should NOT be working with compilable languages here |

| 02:57.55 | neostrider-bzk | ok, but nobody else ever complained |
| 02:57.57 | man_in_shack | <neostrider-bzk> the thing is, you will probably need to comment a few stuff before building << BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD |
| 02:58.15 | Luke-Jr | oh wow |
| 02:58.22 | Luke-Jr | renaming his 'pipe2' works |
| 02:58.27 | neostrider-bzk | man_in_shack: no feedback in 4 years <- EVEN WORST! |
| 02:58.28 | man_in_shack | yeah |
| 02:58.33 | Luke-Jr | except running it I get 2 windows |

| 02:58.45 | neostrider-bzk | Luke-Jr: I was testing multiplayer |
| 02:58.58 | man_in_shack | neostrider-bzk, how long has it been opensource? |
| 02:59.19 | man_in_shack | more to the point, for how long have other people been compiling it? |
| 02:59.22 | Luke-Jr | neostrider-bzk: why the *%$&* does your game ignore Ctrl-C |
| 02:59.29 | neostrider-bzk | just comment "StartPipeMultiplayerSession();" and make sure connected is false |
| 02:59.37 | man_in_shack | Luke-Jr, because that makes it awesome, obviously |
| 02:59.39 | Luke-Jr | neostrider-bzk: why the *%$&* does your game ignore clicking the X to close the window? |
| 02:59.42 | neostrider-bzk | man_in_shack: since its beginning |
| 02:59.44 | Luke-Jr | how can I exit |

| 03:00.17 | man_in_shack | this adds to my comment about "you're doing EVERYTHING you possibly can wrong" |
| 03:00.28 | man_in_shack | wtf |
| 03:00.32 | Luke-Jr | man_in_shack: don't worry, I'm running this in a sandbox ⺠|
| 03:00.35 | man_in_shack | Luke-Jr, i just took a closer look at that paste |
| 03:00.43 | man_in_shack | at the bottom |
| 03:00.52 | man_in_shack | "strip: 'hunter': No such file" << you're doing your build script wrong too! |
| 03:01.04 | Luke-Jr | XD |
| 03:01.13 | neostrider-bzk | man_in_shack: simply becouse I always have a binary here |
| 03:01.17 | neostrider-bzk | so it never fails |
| 03:01.25 | Luke-Jr | man_in_shack: actually, I wonder if these compile errors might technically be a GCC bug |
| 03:01.28 | man_in_shack | that's not the point |
| 03:01.53 | man_in_shack | neostrider-bzk, the point is that you're doing it wrong |
| 03:01.54 | neostrider-bzk | again: this is a open source "as is". people might see fit, or not |
| 03:01.57 | man_in_shack | bad practice and al |
| 03:01.58 | neostrider-bzk | i dont care |
| 03:02.18 | Luke-Jr | man_in_shack: pipe2 is being defined by glibc and preventing his pipe2 var from working |
| 03:02.25 | man_in_shack | neostrider-bzk, would i be right in saying you taught yourself programming from scratch? |
| 03:02.27 | neostrider-bzk | you cant support lots of plataforms without sacrificing something |
| 03:02.36 | neostrider-bzk | man_in_shack: mostly |
| 03:02.40 | Luke-Jr | man_in_shack: please don't assume learning programming yourself is flawed ⺠|
| 03:02.50 | Luke-Jr | neostrider-bzk: nonsense |
| 03:02.57 | man_in_shack | Luke-Jr, i don't mean to imply that |
| 03:02.57 | Luke-Jr | portable C and C++ is quite doable |
| 03:03.06 | Luke-Jr | if you really need advanced things in a portable fashon, use Qt |
| 03:03.10 | neostrider-bzk | for instance: EZX is plain weird to support. So is Windows Mobile |
| 03:03.10 | man_in_shack | just that he's FAILED to learn anything about how to do it properly |
| 03:03.31 | neostrider-bzk | so , experts, show me your stuff! |
| 03:03.33 | Luke-Jr | neostrider-bzk: there is no excuse for these totally wrong things |
| 03:03.46 | Luke-Jr | and writing it in Qt would mean automatic Windows Mobile support |
| 03:03.48 | Luke-Jr | wtf is EZX? |
| 03:03.48 | man_in_shack | neostrider-bzk, was C or C++ your first language? |
| 03:03.56 | neostrider-bzk | Luke-Jr: try building a SDL app for EZX phones and you tell me whats wrong |
| 03:04.14 | Luke-Jr | pfft |
| 03:04.16 | Luke-Jr | those run Linux |
| 03:04.16 | neostrider-bzk | EZX is a linux plataform for Motorola Phones |
| 03:04.40 | neostrider-bzk | Luke-Jr: yeah, but isnt that simple: there is no official SDK |
| 03:04.45 | Luke-Jr | uh, so? |
| 03:04.54 | neostrider-bzk | so it misbehaves badly |
| 03:04.57 | Luke-Jr | if you wrote your code correctly, you wouldn't use an SDK even if it was available |
| 03:05.13 | neostrider-bzk | the segfault at the "quit" option was the best solution I could have to make it work |
| 03:05.21 | Luke-Jr | wtf that was intentional? |
| 03:05.31 | neostrider-bzk | yes.. it used to work well |

| 03:07.33 | man_in_shack | but as you said, Qt Embedded will solve that |
| 03:08.01 | neostrider-bzk | man_in_shack: Yeah, but you need the correct version of the Qt Embedded SDK and the Motorola Libs |
| 03:08.10 | neostrider-bzk | Motorola added some crap over QT Embedded |

| 12:46.17 | javispedro | I don't give a damn either about flash, as long as youtube does not start using 10 (which I doubt considering this) |
| 12:46.20 | Macer | i havecn't checked in a while |

| 12:46.40 | qwerty12_N810 | javispedro: @scene FTW |
| 12:46.42 | timeless_mbp | so it'll be like the fm-radio in the n800 |
| 12:46.48 | timeless_mbp | possible, but requires plumbing |
| 12:46.50 | Macer | that isn't too bad though |
| 12:46.55 | Macer | around $600US or so |
| 12:46.59 | Macer | i expected it to be higher |
| 12:47.02 | RST38h | andre: Well, you see, at some point Adobe advertised its flash player as open source, revealed to interested parties |
| 12:47.33 | RST38h | andre: I.e. theoretically you CAN get the sources, but you have to be a suit, with some organization behind you |
| 12:48.01 | Macer | i mean. the e90 was selling for $900 or so when it came out |
| 12:48.04 | Macer | and it was running symbian |
| 12:48.08 | Macer | i still don't understand that |
| 12:48.17 | andre__ | RST38h, ah, i see what you mean |
| 12:48.19 | jadams | yeah, if it's ~$600 i'll be buying one asap. they're available today? |

| 12:48.34 | jadams | I can live |
| 12:48.37 | RST38h | andre: If somebody talks Quim into being that suit and a few maemo.org guys step forward to work on the code, this may be possible |
| 12:49.38 | Macer | you probably won't be able to get one for a while |
| 12:49.41 | Macer | the world is going to suck them up |
| 12:49.44 | Macer | like the Wii :-\ |
| 12:49.44 | andre__ | RST38h, adobe seems to have a busted definition of "open source" if you're allowed to take a look after signing lots of paperwork. with taht argumentation microsoft windows is open source too |
| 12:49.45 | RST38h | NOTE: DivX codec is not onboard |
| 12:49.58 | RST38h | andre: Who gives a fuck about their definition? |
| 12:50.24 | andre__ | hehe |
| 12:50.25 | RST38h | andre: hey can define it any way they like, I would be only interested in whether there is a way to get the code from them |

| 13:50.28 | aol_ | remember nokia always talks about recommended price |
| 13:50.40 | Khertan | Jaffa: but "selected markets" doesn't mean nothing right ? |
| 13:50.51 | Khertan | aol_: true |
| 13:50.54 | nomis | lardman: so you have a linked list of locations, but this is not in the TMC message, but in the database. |
| 13:50.56 | aol_ | selected markets probably means only available through nokia.com etc |
| 13:50.56 | X-Fade | Khertan: Look at the language list. |
| 13:51.03 | X-Fade | Khertan: Those are the selected markets ;) |

| 13:51.08 | doc|home | it's good they announced it before. I was considering an iphone but read about this on mobile-review (owning an n800 already) and decided to wait and see. Glad I did now. |
| 13:51.11 | Khertan | X-Fade: good deduction :) |
| 13:51.20 | aol_ | there are already rumors of N920 |
| 13:51.26 | doc|home | aol_: any idea what that is? |
| 13:51.27 | aol_ | which is RX-71 then I guesS? |
| 13:51.48 | GeneralAntilles | doc|home, Eldar says early next year. |

| 13:51.56 | GeneralAntilles | RX-71 is still an unknown. |
| 13:51.58 | aol_ | GeneralAntilles: ok |

| 13:52.01 | doc|home | ah, ok, thanks |
| 13:52.08 | aol_ | what is in RX-56 ? |
| 13:52.11 | aol_ | any info |
| 13:52.16 | Jaffa | aol_: None. |
| 13:52.23 | GeneralAntilles | doc|home, unknown, but Eldar says only slight variations. |
| 13:52.26 | GeneralAntilles | aol_, N920 |
| 13:52.31 | Khertan | Jaffa: i though that they will announce it at the bijua world event :) |
| 13:52.32 | aol_ | yes but specks :) |
| 13:52.44 | GeneralAntilles | aol_, none known other than "slight variation". |
| 13:52.45 | Khertan | oups ... Nokia World event i mean :) |
| 13:52.46 | doc|home | GeneralAntilles: but those variations could be important! :) |
| 13:52.53 | aol_ | N900 was easy as "everybody" had seen it months ago |
| 13:53.01 | lardman | nomis: well if I could do RDS injection, I could just run through the codes one by one and write down the location list |
| 13:53.16 | Jaffa | aol_: N900 was easy because the SDK is littered with RX-51 references. |

| 13:58.08 | nomis | lardman: I suspect that all those TMC "devices" to attach to navigation devices will just output the raw RDS groups. |
| 13:58.27 | Khertan | the most important rds feature : traffice announce |
| 13:58.46 | nomis | lardman: so you can update the LCL and the Encryption-parameter-table by a firmware update in the navigation device, or reading from the SD card. |
| 13:58.51 | lardman | nomis: they say they come with the subscription built in |
| 13:59.06 | lardman | hmm, fair enough |
| 13:59.22 | nomis | lardman: that only means that the navigation device feels allowed to use the builtin tables. |
| 13:59.32 | lardman | yeah, ok |
| 13:59.46 | nomis | (pure guess, but a lot of the RDS encryption stuff seems very security-by-obscurity-ish) |
| 13:59.59 | lardman | yes indeed |

| 16:56.04 | GeneralAntilles | and working with 3rd parties to improve their licensing. |
| 16:56.20 | SpeedEvil | Is there a list of the binary blobs? |
| 16:56.32 | GeneralAntilles | SpeedEvil, as we don't have the final image yet, no. |
| 16:56.40 | GeneralAntilles | But I suspect it'll be mostly limited to OpenGL. |
| 16:56.42 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: some things require closed source prettymuch - GSM for example. |

| 16:56.59 | GeneralAntilles | I don't know if ofono is ready for Fremantle yet, however. |
| 16:57.02 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: though I assume that's on another core |
| 16:57.26 | Luke-Jr | if N900 requires anything closed source, I most probably won't be buying it |

| 16:58.42 | GeneralAntilles | Luke-Jr, excellent, then you can quiet down about it now. |
| 16:58.50 | GeneralAntilles | OpenGL is closed. So, check and check. |

| 17:05.07 | Khertan | i think we will have more information the 1 or 2 September |

| 17:11.17 | aol_ | mgedmin: somehow need to play along with the package manager |
| 17:11.44 | tuukkah | hmm, i thought it's nokia-supported |
| 17:11.49 | aol_ | for S60 you need to install comple of SIS files before you can install Qt apps, so it's completely out of question |
| 17:12.01 | mgedmin | the package manager is the least of your worries; educating the users about enabling the repositories that ship qt might be more difficult |
| 17:12.10 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin, no more than it does on Diablo. |

| 17:38.35 | Passeli | The following packages have unmet dependencies: osso-af-sb-startup: Depends: hildon-initscripts but it is not going to be installed |
| 17:38.39 | Passeli | E: Broken packages |
| 17:39.03 | johnx | wiretapped, swap help you wait instead of having the low memory killer go off and just end something like on android |
| 17:39.04 | lardman | derf: yeah, you have to quickly restart dsp_dld |
| 17:39.19 | lardman | derf: and even that won't work sometimes and you're in for a reboot :) |
| 17:39.31 | lardman | derf: but if we have another watchdog this time, the same will be true |
| 17:40.47 | qwerty12_N810 | lardman: if it's the exiting of dsp_dld that is causing you to reboot, then edit /etc/init.d/dsp-init and change the dsmetool arguments |
| 17:41.30 | wiretapped | johnx: android seems to handle it well... they've got a patched oom killer, and a sacrificial lamb process which gets killed first after which they have some room to breathe |
| 17:41.43 | Passeli | it seems that osso-af-sb-startup depends on theme-config, but no such package exist |
| 17:41.53 | wiretapped | is still getting an n900 but is very disappointed to see 256mb there |
| 17:42.56 | johnx | android is a pretty different platform. they require a lot more in the way of applications being able to be able to save state and suspend when asked from what I can tell |
| 17:43.54 | qwerty12_N810 | hullo johnx |
| 17:43.56 | johnx | and saving state to disk, quitting, reopening later and reloading state sounds about the same as getting swapped out and back in to me :) |

| 18:37.15 | SpeedEvil | you can be able to flash a kernel with opensource components - and end up with a functioning but useless device - my DSL modem for example. |
| 18:37.33 | lardman | the kernel is free |
| 18:37.45 | lardman | some modules are not |
| 18:37.52 | Stskeeps | probably fully open kernel. |
| 18:37.52 | lardman | how does that stop you flashing a new one? |
| 18:38.08 | Luke-Jr | lardman: my point is we don't *know* if the kernel is free yet, other than maybe having the code |
| 18:38.14 | qwerty12_N810 | Why are we having this argument when, for three tablets, Nokia have produced the sources of the kernel AND allowed to you flash the resulting image? |
| 18:38.17 | Luke-Jr | but that code is not usable if they require a signed kernel |
| 18:38.26 | lardman | qwerty12_N810: indeed |
| 18:38.32 | Luke-Jr | qwerty12_N810: I'm just saying it's not a given that will continue with the new cell connectivity |
| 18:38.37 | SpeedEvil | qwerty12_N810: the tablets have not had GSM - and carrier subsidy. (AIUI) |
| 18:38.46 | GeneralAntilles | Luke-Jr, ofono.org |
| 18:38.50 | lardman | Luke-Jr: the question is really how you ensure that only a signed kernel can be used. How would you do this? |
| 18:38.53 | GeneralAntilles | Luke-Jr, now drop it and move on. |
| 18:38.55 | RST38h | reMoo all |
| 18:39.05 | jeremiah | lardman: There are actually lots of ways to do that. |
| 18:39.21 | lardman | let's hear it ;) we have root remember |
| 18:39.42 | Luke-Jr | lardman: kernel obviously can restrict any/all access to flash |
| 18:39.55 | Luke-Jr | root has no power except what the kernel gives him |
| 18:40.07 | zerojay | Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh JAY SMASH |
| 18:40.10 | RST38h | Anyone knows the / partitiojnn size in N900? |
| 18:40.12 | SpeedEvil | lardman: And bootloader doesn't have to load unsigned kernel. And initial bootloader can be in ROM. |
| 18:40.13 | Stskeeps | you people are worrying too much. |
| 18:40.18 | Stskeeps | honestly. |
| 18:40.29 | homeasvs | Luke-Jr, speculating is useless |
| 18:40.34 | Luke-Jr | homeasvs: indeed. |
| 18:41.00 | jeremiah | Speculating may be useless, but gesticulating is useful. |
| 18:41.04 | Luke-Jr | Stskeeps: I'm not worried, just pointing out that if an unflashable kernel is a deal breaker, I wouldn't preorder until I see an official statement ;) |
| 18:41.22 | SpeedEvil | Also - a seperate issue is a carrier lock - which canbe seperate - it may be that the device is locked to a carrier, but otherwise open. |
| 18:41.23 | xnt14 | hmm |
| 18:41.25 | Stskeeps | i'm sure nokia will let you destroy your tablet all you want |
| 18:41.30 | xnt14 | is this normal? malloc: /Users/chet/src/bash/src/parse.y:5561: assertion botched |
| 18:41.40 | Luke-Jr | SpeedEvil: carrier lock would require a locked kernel I'm pretty sure |
| 18:41.48 | xnt14 | I just mistyped cd .../ |
| 18:41.55 | jeremiah | Luke-Jr: Why? |
| 18:41.56 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: assuming the GSM isn't on a seperate core |
| 18:41.58 | lardman | SpeedEvil: yes, that I agree with |
| 18:42.01 | jeremiah | That doesn't make anysense. |
| 18:42.18 | SpeedEvil | (or has encrypted firmware blob) |
| 18:42.29 | Luke-Jr | jeremiah: because of FCC regulations, at the least |
| 18:42.40 | *** join/#maemo richieeee72 (n=richard@host86-171-220-65.range86-171.btcentralplus.com) |
| 18:42.44 | Luke-Jr | cell phones are required to operate on any network available for emergency calls |
| 18:42.44 | jeremiah | What FCC regulations say you need a "locked" kernel? |
| 18:42.47 | RST38h | Well, GSM *is* going to be on a separate core, talking with AT command set |
| 18:42.51 | Corsac | hmhm, fremantle is ubuntu based or still debian based? |
| 18:42.59 | Luke-Jr | so any such provider locking needs to be done in the kernel |
| 18:43.07 | lardman | what was our last troll called? On the ml? |
| 18:43.07 | jeremiah | Corsac: Debian |
| 18:43.09 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: not if it's on a seperate core. |
| 18:43.11 | Corsac | ok, thanks |
| 18:43.14 | RST38h | But the oFono thing is open sourced, so there is good chance you can see how it sends those at commands to the baseband chip |
| 18:43.20 | jeremiah | Corsac: Ubuntu is debian based too BTW |
| 18:43.27 | Luke-Jr | SpeedEvil: how will the seperate core know it's emergency? |
| 18:43.32 | jeremiah | RST38h: Exactly! |
| 18:43.33 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: ? |
| 18:43.44 | Luke-Jr | without allowing the kernel to send any arbitrary # as "emergency" to bypass the lock |
| 18:43.50 | Corsac | jeremiah: yeah but it has many core modifications |
| 18:44.09 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: emergency call only 911/999/112/... in the firmware of the phone. |
| 18:44.15 | jeremiah | Corsac: "core modifications"? Like Launchpad and unfree media codecs? |
| 18:44.22 | Luke-Jr | SpeedEvil: and what if your emergency number IS different? |
| 18:44.23 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: in the firmware of the GSM core I mena. |
| 18:44.30 | Corsac | jeremiah: yeah, that too :) |
| 18:44.35 | jeremiah | heh |
| 18:44.38 | SpeedEvil | Luke-Jr: also - many countries do not support emergency calls. |
| 18:44.46 | Stskeeps | Luke-Jr: proof: go read the beta's kernel config's and see if you see any glaring missing functionality |
| 18:44.50 | SpeedEvil | (without valid SIM) |
| 18:45.07 | Corsac | jeremiah: (i'm a debian developer btw so I'm kind-of aware of debian/ubuntu diffs) |
| 18:45.16 | jeremiah | w00t! |
| 18:45.17 | Passeli | SpeedEvil: you can call emergency calls without sim |
| 18:45.24 | SpeedEvil | Passeli: In some countries. |
| 18:45.28 | SpeedEvil | Passeli: not in the UK. |
| 18:46.06 | Passeli | that's pure dumb, for what reason not? |
| 18:46.30 | SpeedEvil | I'm unsure. |
| 18:46.54 | SpeedEvil | I just know that the several times I've tested it over the years with different phones and SIMs it hasn't worked. |
| 18:46.56 | lardman | why would you have a charged phone but no sim? |
| 18:47.08 | Luke-Jr | lardman: emergencies |
| 18:47.16 | lardman | probably something to do with the police needing to know the number that has dialled them |
| 18:47.36 | pH5 | SpeedEvil: to reduce anonymous prank calls, supposedly |
| 18:47.45 | lardman | Luke-Jr: yeah, what sort though, one in which you break into a Nokia store, cut yourself on the glass on the way in, and need to dial for an ambulance? |
| 18:48.14 | Luke-Jr | lardman: I keep a charged cell phone w/o service for 2 purposes: 1, my wife can use it in an emergency if I'm not there, 2, I have a spare battery always charged |
| 18:48.20 | pH5 | At least I think that was the reason the german regulator gave. |
| 18:48.38 | Luke-Jr | pH5: how is it anonymous when your coordinates go with it? |
| 18:48.40 | lardman | pH5: sounds reasonable |
| 18:48.50 | lardman | Luke-Jr: coordinates? This isn't the USA |
| 18:48.59 | Luke-Jr | lardman: GPS isn't USA specific AFAIK |
| 18:49.01 | johnsq | lardman: they never knowed on old plain phones. |
| 18:49.14 | lardman | Luke-Jr: but reporting it on the phones is |
| 18:49.17 | pH5 | Luke-Jr: I don't care, it wasn't my decision. |
| 18:49.24 | Luke-Jr | lardman: really? |
| 18:49.28 | lardman | really |
| 18:49.48 | Luke-Jr | odd |
| 18:50.12 | lardman | yes, caused all sorts of problems with voip being considered a main phone number over there so i've read |
| 18:50.15 | SpeedEvil | This was _way_ before GPS was around. |
| 18:50.26 | SpeedEvil | GSM in the UK hit about ... 1993? |
| 18:50.42 | SpeedEvil | When adding GPS to a phone would have doubled its weight (ish) |
| 18:51.08 | lardman | not sure GPS was even allowed for non-military when phones came in here |
| 18:51.15 | SpeedEvil | lardman: it was. |

| 18:52.19 | zerojay | Wjt: i'm going to try telepathy-butterfly tonight. I'll let you know how it goes. |
| 18:52.30 | SpeedEvil | lardman: IIRC raegan decided early on that GPS would be available to all after teh shootdown of the airliner that went into russian airspace. |
| 18:53.23 | lardman | well at least not affordable then |
| 18:53.40 | lardman | certainly I'd never seen one and I used to fly alot |
| 18:53.58 | lardman | light aircraft that is |
| 18:54.13 | GeneralAntilles | No emergency without a SIM is crazy. |
| 18:54.21 | GeneralAntilles | I can call 911 with any old cellphone I own. |
| 18:54.24 | GeneralAntilles | SIM or none. |
| 18:54.40 | lardman | but most people probably won't have a charged old phone lying about |
| 18:55.01 | lardman | so it makes little difference, unless you specifically keep one because you can do this |
| 18:55.03 | SpeedEvil | lardman: the early GPSs were sequential one channel ones - that would have really sucked for airplane use |

| 19:09.37 | Mousey | that's not my assumption |
| 19:09.49 | Mousey | my assumption is, it's a phone, BUT ONLY IF you have Carrier X, not Y or Z |
| 19:09.54 | Luke-Jr | Mousey: so you'd rather have Wifi only than Wifi+cell? |
| 19:10.11 | Mousey | Luke-Jr: i'd perfer Wifi + Slot-for-cell-radio |
| 19:10.16 | RST38h | Mousey: It is not tied to a particular carrier, you can always buy it unsubsidized |
| 19:10.31 | Luke-Jr | Mousey: that's more or less what GSM is supposed to be |
| 19:10.31 | RST38h | does not understand what Mousey's problem with N900 is |

| 19:10.35 | SpeedEvil | Mousey: slots are _horribly_ problematic. |
| 19:10.37 | Mousey | RST38h: it IS tied to a specific few carriers, namely GSM carriers |
| 19:10.40 | paroneayea | RST38h: that's been confirmed? |
| 19:10.44 | Mousey | SpeedEvil: maybe, but flexibility is important |
| 19:10.54 | RST38h | Mousey: It is not. You can use WiFi, just like with N800/N810 |
| 19:10.56 | Luke-Jr | Mousey: GSM is the standard for carrier independent hardware |
| 19:10.57 | paroneayea | RST38h: that would make me happy if it is |
| 19:10.58 | kirma | mousey: only thing that complicates things with addition of cell phone network radio is FCC (and others) certification to be sold on the market... |
| 19:11.04 | Luke-Jr | Mousey: GSM = slot for carrier |
| 19:11.12 | RST38h | paroneayea: Nokia always sells its devices unsubsidized |
| 19:11.13 | Mousey | kirma: which.......... raises the price significantly |
| 19:11.30 | SpeedEvil | I think Mousey meant the whole radio - not the SIM. |
| 19:11.31 | kirma | US just has such a backwards market that people think that phones and contracts are always bundled |
| 19:11.31 | paroneayea | RST38h: ah, great |
| 19:11.31 | Mousey | Luke-Jr: ...unless it's CDMA |
| 19:11.31 | Luke-Jr | Mousey: Sprint avoids GSM because it doesn't want you using carrier-independent phones |
| 19:11.33 | kirma | mousey: I don't believe that |
| 19:11.33 | RST38h | paroneayea: there is no reason to think this one will be any different |
| 19:11.37 | Mousey | bah |

| 19:14.03 | kirma | the true cost of HSPA modem and anything related to unit being certified is under 20 euros. not a huge extra cost, I say. |
| 19:14.21 | hircus | this is rather silly, but how does one reposition the contact applet in Diablo? |

| 19:14.35 | hircus | I can resize, but dragging works only very rarely |
| 19:14.50 | RST38h | kirma: And it is part of $300 or so it costs Nokia to build the device, way less than the price you pay for it =) |
| 19:15.35 | Mousey | RST38h: hence the nokia-please-dont-stop-selling-the-n810-for-a-while sentiment |
| 19:15.41 | SpeedEvil | kirma: AIUI the pay-as-you-go USB hspa modems are more expensive thanthat - eventhe pay-as-you-go ones are actually subsidised a bit by the carrier. |
| 19:15.44 | fiferboy | Spacebar notwithstanding, I think the N900 will be better for lefties since most apps will be flick-scroll instead of right-hand-scrollbars |

| 19:24.14 | kirma | wimax edition is... interesting, but the thing that Nokia doesn't like is absurd operator control at cost of manufacturers *and* users, and that's the reason why it has suffered on the market... because the operators don't want their customers to have liberty of making sensible decisions like the GSM users most of the rest of the world |
| 19:24.17 | Luke-Jr | Mousey: mass market = cell phone |
| 19:24.24 | RST38h | johnsq: I would guess $500 in US, similar to the N810 prices |

| 20:11.02 | zerojay | Probably a bug in telepathy-idle. |
| 20:11.09 | xxiao | i hope nokia can streamline its platforms asap, the qt/maemo/gtk/symbian/etc is still not clear to me, they probably can fully open source Qt to compete with android, IMHO |
| 20:11.09 | javispedro | oh, good, slashdot running the n900 story already. time for laughs. |
| 20:11.32 | javispedro | xxiao, what part of qt is not opensource? |
| 20:11.37 | Luke-Jr | xxiao: Qt has been fully open source for about 5 years at least |
| 20:12.00 | GAN800 | Stories about Maemo on /. turn /. commenters into Engadget commenters. |

| 20:12.37 | Stskeeps | xxiao: on the other hand isn't it glorious to have a flexible platform? |
| 20:12.43 | GAN800 | xxiao, Maemo for high-end stuff, Symbian for mid and low, Qt as the crossplatform toolkit. |
| 20:13.14 | GAN800 | GTK is slowly becoming the legacy toolkit for Maemo. |
| 20:13.26 | johnsq | xxiao: use gtk or qt and write apps, the toolkit didn't matter, the apps are the work. |
| 20:13.44 | Luke-Jr | Qt |
| 20:13.55 | zerojay | Gen800: legacy in linux as a whole as well. |
| 20:14.58 | javispedro | zerojay, not until we get gnome-qt |
| 20:15.03 | xxiao | Stskeeps: i sense android is really making a big wave in many devices right now, moblin does not really have much advantage, i like maemo, but it's still "changing" |

| 20:15.39 | GAN800 | Android is a lot of hype. |
| 20:15.50 | GAN800 | Moblin is mostly a research project. |
| 20:16.09 | Stskeeps | moblin is a bit odd.. it seems to be GTK + a toolkit not unlike hildon for netbooks |
| 20:16.10 | zerojay | Xxiao: at least it's alive and innovating. |
| 20:16.14 | javispedro | xxiao, qt!=kde. see harmattan: it's going to be a frankenstein mix of gnome mobile and qt. |
| 20:16.18 | xxiao | GAN800: that's true, but when all companies put money behind it, it could work out. sometimes stupid market could beat smart techs |
| 20:17.22 | xxiao | Stskeeps: moblin is doing clutter, did not really spend time on that for a yet another new framework |
| 20:17.34 | Stskeeps | xxiao: sure but clutter isn't really used in apps.. :P |
| 20:18.10 | xxiao | javispedro: i know that. but kde is most people get their idea for qt, thank god i'm looking for embedded GUI instead of desktop |
| 20:19.44 | Luke-Jr | javispedro: GNOME sucks |

| 22:38.47 | zerojayPC | Yeah... like I said, hard to improve something if people don't tell us what the problems are. |

| 22:39.30 | zerojayPC | I would if I could. |
| 22:39.51 | lardman | not worth it on the C55 tbh, painful debugging, not enough memory and no 8bit type |
| 22:40.16 | lardman | certainly not worth it if you're not being paid and don't even use ogg ;) |
| 22:40.32 | GeneralAntilles | Now this is an interesting spec: Maximum User Storage: 32 GB, NAND Memory 768 MB, SDRAM Memory 256 MB. |
| 22:40.42 | wiretapped | since we're still talking about it... yeah, my complaint is practical as well as political.. but in response to the "theora brings no benefits at all to the table" argument: Wikipedia videos should work out-of-the-box. |
| 22:40.46 | GeneralAntilles | Are we booting from that 768MB and swap on the 32GB? |

| 22:41.10 | lardman | wiretapped: well once the hw comes out we'll create a DSP task then |
| 22:41.31 | javispedro | it's probably it's indeed booting from the 768MiB, and that's the one using UBIFS |

| 22:42.09 | zerojayPC | wiretapped: You just got done telling us that ogg support on the older tablets suck... is there anything else other than the lack of theora that made it suck? |
| 22:42.25 | wiretapped | cpu load. |
| 22:42.25 | zerojayPC | And the tags in media player not being read. |
| 22:42.31 | wazd | btw, looks like n900 will be shipped earlier than Pandora :D |
| 22:42.34 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: 3/4Gb or NAND? |

| 22:42.43 | zerojayPC | And that's it? |
| 22:42.44 | lardman | s/3/4/0.75 |
| 22:42.49 | javispedro | PoP? |

| 22:43.10 | wiretapped | which is the main issue |
| 22:43.29 | lardman | wiretapped: yes, but Nokia are not here to spread formats |
| 22:43.35 | GeneralAntilles | lardman, SDRAM and NAND are on the same PoP. |

| 22:45.39 | javispedro | dunno if the 768MiB is the "virtual memory" they keep talking about or the rootfs |
| 22:45.40 | GeneralAntilles | 32GB |
| 22:45.57 | GeneralAntilles | 32Gb is 8GB |
| 22:46.00 | SpeedEvil | GeneralAntilles: coming soon |
| 22:46.05 | GeneralAntilles | Er, 4GB. |
| 22:46.14 | GeneralAntilles | SpeedEvil, ah, thanks. |
| 22:46.14 | lardman | javispedro: I think there's 1Gb of NAND and 768MB is the swap |
| 22:46.23 | lardman | up to 768... |
| 22:46.38 | lardman | anyway, where's my dmesg |
| 22:46.41 | lardman | ? |
| 22:46.41 | javispedro | lardman, remember to ask about /proc/mtd when asking for the dmesg ;) |
| 22:46.48 | ljp | wonders if he will ever get his hands on a rover |
| 22:46.49 | lardman | must be an N900 lurking here somewhere |
| 22:46.51 | GeneralAntilles | javispedro, based on those specs, my suspicion is that the 768MB of NAND is rootfs/kernel |
| 22:46.57 | GeneralAntilles | Swap is probably on the 32GB. |
| 22:47.07 | timeless_mbp | GeneralAntilles: the 768mb is a parlor trick |
| 22:47.11 | lardman | javispedro: add it to the thread in Talk, I think one person has looked at it :) |
| 22:47.14 | javispedro | agreed, since then swap would be a file in the FAT32 partition |
| 22:47.27 | timeless_mbp | there are 3 partitions of the big thing |
| 22:47.29 | GeneralAntilles | What's the status on FATx support in Linux these days? |
| 22:47.31 | javispedro | no need to confuse windows seeing a swap partition when usb-exporting the card |
| 22:47.33 | timeless_mbp | ext3, fat32 and swap |
| 22:47.46 | SunbEEm | well, I have to go eat, but I'll keep this project in mind. I hope the blind can use it, maybe by running Orca. Interesting group. I just know I don't want stupid Windows. |
| 22:47.50 | lardman | so can apps be installed on the ext3? |
| 22:47.56 | timeless_mbp | the root file system is ubifs and is closer to 256mb |
| 22:48.05 | lardman | timeless_mbp: can you hit us with a dmesg? :) |
| 22:48.07 | GeneralAntilles | Ah, didn't think there were 1GB PoPs. |
| 22:48.10 | mkpaa | my mplayer/canola youtube/video sound problem seems to persist. videos/sound (@youtube) work fine with browser, but no audio on mplayer/canola and video is playing faster than supposed |
| 22:48.25 | javispedro | let timeless talk, damnit! |
| 22:48.26 | timeless_mbp | lardman: i don't think i'm allowed to today |
| 22:48.26 | GeneralAntilles | lardman, email Quim? |
| 22:48.26 | javispedro | ;) |
| 22:48.30 | mkpaa | mplayer plays included .avi fine with sound and canola plays mp3 just fine |
| 22:48.43 | *** part/#maemo SunbEEm (n=user@static-96-245-209-9.phlapa.fios.verizon.net) |
| 22:48.44 | mkpaa | any idea where the problem is hiding?-) |
| 22:48.45 | timeless_mbp | formally information disclosure is limited to what has been announced |
| 22:48.45 | lardman | timeless_mbp: ok |
| 22:48.49 | lardman | GeneralAntilles: will do |
| 22:49.09 | lardman | hmm, not that important anyway really |
| 22:49.10 | GeneralAntilles | Wont it be fun when people pop SDXC cards into their tablets and they just work? |
| 22:49.20 | javispedro | ah, you were asking for that |
| 22:49.24 | javispedro | exFAT it's called. |
| 22:49.29 | GeneralAntilles | Ah, right. |
| 22:49.31 | javispedro | read-only with an out of tree kernel driver for now. |
| 22:49.32 | GeneralAntilles | is in 360 mode still. |
| 22:49.33 | timeless_mbp | fwiw, we talked about how much effort would be required to have swap in the volume which currently has ubifs |
| 22:49.39 | timeless_mbp | the estimate is something like 6 months iirc |
| 22:49.53 | pupnik | are there potentially alternatives to gcc for arm? |
| 22:49.55 | timeless_mbp | because swap wants a block device, and the root file system is not on a block device |
| 22:50.01 | timeless_mbp | pupnik: technically yes |
| 22:50.07 | timeless_mbp | practically, probably not |
| 22:50.14 | pupnik | kay thx |
| 22:50.24 | javispedro | I only know the official arm one, it costs both kidneys |
| 22:50.25 | lardman | some ARM toolchains, they cost though |
| 22:50.41 | GeneralAntilles | javispedro, be nice if the standards board didn't eat Microsoft bribes for lunch. |
| 22:50.41 | timeless_mbp | msvc can compile to arm fwiw |
| 22:51.03 | lardman | elf though? |
| 22:51.28 | javispedro | GeneralAntilles, some members of that board must be way richer by now |
| 22:51.43 | javispedro | I don't know how could _that_ happen |
| 22:52.02 | timeless_mbp | anyway, i have stuff to do.... |
| 22:52.30 | zerojay | Go eat. ;) |
| 22:52.39 | javispedro | pupnik, there's an ongoin llvm arm backend... |
| 22:52.53 | javispedro | i don't if it's usable or not, but would be interesting |
| 22:53.21 | pupnik | i was thinking how the intel c compiler used to beat gcc on x86 |
| 22:53.38 | simula | llvm arm backend... yummy |
| 22:53.41 | lardman | pupnik: sumbit patches for the arm branch of GCC! |
| 22:53.44 | javispedro | pupnik, yeah, the gap has been closing lately. |
| 22:53.47 | pupnik | -fprofile-generate might be good to try |
| 22:54.14 | pupnik | or whatever that runtime statistics and 2-pass compile is |
| 22:54.22 | javispedro | first I would try getting a newer cs gcc built |
| 22:54.26 | timeless_mbp | zerojay: oh, we did that :) |
| 22:54.31 | javispedro | even though cs2007 results in slower code :S |
| 22:54.31 | pupnik | i had to disable gcc cache for it to work btw |
| 22:54.40 | pupnik | hmm? |
| 22:54.53 | pupnik | cs gcc? |
| 22:54.56 | javispedro | with drnoksnes I get a 5fps drop |
| 22:54.58 | javispedro | codesourcery |
| 22:55.03 | pupnik | ah |
| 22:55.14 | pupnik | drop with profile-use? |
| 22:55.23 | javispedro | no, drop with cs2007 |
| 22:55.27 | pupnik | k |
| 22:55.41 | javispedro | (vs cs2005, the one I've made all public builds so far) |
| 22:55.52 | GeneralAntilles | FAT's bad enough, but giving Microsoft the opportunity to put a stranglehold on the portable storage market. . . . |
| 22:56.11 | javispedro | what's worse is that probably Nokia is paying royalties to MS. |
| 22:56.18 | javispedro | at this very moment, for FAT32. |
| 22:56.27 | pupnik | bleh |
| 22:57.13 | javispedro | pupnik, I've tried profile-generate but generated executables were crashing here |
| 22:57.26 | javispedro | oprofile can also generate gprof data, so I hope it works that way |
| 22:57.36 | lardman | http://www.forum.nokia.com/devices/N900 max memory card size 16Gb |
| 22:57.39 | pupnik | ah dosbox crashed for me too with -generate |
| 22:57.41 | lardman | hmm :) |
| 22:57.50 | GeneralAntilles | lardman, same as the N810 that can only use 8GB? |
| 22:57.56 | javispedro | does dosbox contain any arm asm? |
| 22:57.58 | GeneralAntilles | It's just what they've certified it with. |
| 22:58.06 | GeneralAntilles | Doesn't have anything at all to do with what it can actually work with. |
| 22:58.08 | javispedro | (code where gcc cannot put any prologue) |
| 22:58.10 | pupnik | not the version i tried |
| 22:58.17 | javispedro | ah, true |
| 22:58.22 | GeneralAntilles | Assuming you're not using exFAT, cards up to 2TB should work fine out of the box. |
| 22:59.06 | javispedro | my guess is that with optimized code the uniwinding routine crashes if the timer interrupts in asm code |
| 22:59.23 | javispedro | but seems that's not the case ... :P |
| 23:01.08 | lardman | http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=31005&page=12 work from Adobe themselves I assume |
| 23:01.40 | lardman | not that I really care, but there is a lot of flash around these days |
| 23:01.49 | lardman | nice to see that updates might be forthcoming |
| 23:02.19 | javispedro | I wouldn't be surprised if they don't. |
| 23:02.56 | lardman | depends how long the platform lasts and how popular it is |
| 23:03.06 | lardman | I guess they will get updates as it looks like the flagship now |
| 23:03.30 | javispedro | heh, hope so. |

| 23:05.07 | pupnik | gtkdict? |
| 23:05.07 | zerojay | You got the iphone one instead. ;) |
| 23:05.33 | javispedro | naah, the gtkentry widgets all have some kind of spellchecking, but I can't see where to change the language |
| 23:05.51 | lardman | not sure mainstreap is right in any lang :p |
| 23:06.27 | javispedro | seeing EVERYTHING i write with that red wavvy underline just because it's not spanish it's going to make me crazy. |

| 23:09.58 | pupnik | ah |
| 23:10.55 | timeless_mbp | GeneralAntilles: you can use the input method's prediction to try to test words |
| 23:11.00 | timeless_mbp | although t9 is better for that purpose |
| 23:11.17 | timeless_mbp | i'd imagine that fennec will someday include a spell checker |
| 23:11.34 | timeless_mbp | iirc there was an addin for microb which provided spell checking |
| 23:11.45 | timeless_mbp | as for flash.... it's tough |
| 23:12.02 | timeless_mbp | getting flash 10 working is hard enough |
| 23:12.10 | timeless_mbp | our team really *wanted* flash 10 for fremantle |

| 23:12.54 | timeless_mbp | fwiw, there are some sites that won't work |
| 23:13.01 | timeless_mbp | you pr0n .... |
| 23:13.17 | timeless_mbp | since their content is encoded w/ too high of a bitrate iirc |
| 23:13.29 | timeless_mbp | but youtube works reasonably well |
| 23:13.50 | timeless_mbp | video is also seeing improvements in transcoding |
| 23:13.53 | javispedro | it's already known nokia uses pr0n sites for testing, no need to make a fuss ;) |
| 23:13.53 | mrmcq2u | is it true that after maemo5 there will be a rewrite to qt? |
| 23:14.09 | woglinde | mrmcq2u yes |
| 23:14.10 | timeless_mbp | so someday you might be able to use fennec w/ <video> and have an extension which arranges for your content to be transcoded |
| 23:14.20 | timeless_mbp | mrmcq2u: i'm not sure i'd call it a rewrite |
| 23:14.38 | simula | the user facing webcam is 640x480 |
| 23:14.44 | ljp | mrmcq2u: but gtk will still be on the device and community supported |
| 23:14.53 | mrmcq2u | wont that fragment the work which application developers do with maemo5? |
| 23:15.14 | lardman | timeless_mbp: fm receiver? as indicated in the defconfig? |
| 23:15.20 | ljp | no, because application develoeprs will still be able to use gtk |
| 23:15.21 | timeless_mbp | mrmcq2u: doesn't nokia's use of s20, s40, s60, s80, and maemo fragment its community |
| 23:15.47 | timeless_mbp | lardman: um |
| 23:15.56 | mrmcq2u | ljp - so maemo5 apps will work on maemo6? |
| 23:16.03 | timeless_mbp | mrmcq2u: nokia wants to reduce its internal fragmentation |

| 23:17.16 | javispedro | i don't remember doing anything unusual... |
| 23:17.44 | mrmcq2u | What about ngage on maemo5? |
| 23:18.15 | timeless_mbp | lardman: so, the n800 didn't mention it had support for an fm radio |
| 23:18.22 | timeless_mbp | i.e. the software stack didn't expose it |
| 23:18.44 | lardman | yep |
| 23:18.44 | timeless_mbp | most likely a third party (nokia or otherwise) would provide such things |
| 23:18.55 | lardman | good good |
| 23:18.57 | mrmcq2u | or an open equivalent? |
| 23:19.12 | timeless_mbp | well, i'd hope most otherwises would be open.... |
| 23:19.18 | timeless_mbp | but i don't really care one way or the other |
| 23:19.23 | lardman | timeless_mbp: though curious, assuming it's there ;), that Nokia haven't included that function too |
| 23:19.40 | timeless_mbp | lardman: marketing tries to emphasize all the features it can |
| 23:19.46 | timeless_mbp | sometimes overselling, that's their job |

| 23:22.45 | simula | i would think you could install it on the 900 |
| 23:23.15 | timeless_mbp | frowns |
| 23:23.24 | timeless_mbp | that isn't the way debian works |
| 23:23.40 | timeless_mbp | in debian, each version of a platform has different library versions |
| 23:23.46 | timeless_mbp | and apps are built against them |
| 23:23.50 | simula | i can always install from source :) |
| 23:24.01 | timeless_mbp | ideally, the sources will enable you to build against a newer platform |
| 23:24.03 | simula | build-essentials will be my first install |
| 23:24.09 | mrmcq2u | are nokia directly competing with the iphone with regards to the n900? |
| 23:24.23 | mrmcq2u | if so they will need some games :) |

| 23:26.05 | timeless_mbp | Luke-Jr: buy me one and i'll let you know in a year :) |
| 23:26.14 | mrmcq2u | timeless_mbp - I think the n900 is better than the iphone, I was just pointing out that one of the iphones success stories is the gaming aspect and that some though should go into either porting n-gage over to maemo5 or developing a more open successor |
| 23:26.17 | GeneralAntilles | javispedro, I think I've been spoiled by OS X's global spellcheck. |

| 23:28.12 | Luke-Jr | timeless_mbp: S3C6410 is what the SmartQ uses |
| 23:28.17 | Luke-Jr | which we have full detailed specs for |
| 23:28.29 | javispedro | bah, someone already opened the x-chat bug for me (in ubuntu bugzilla) |
| 23:28.49 | mrmcq2u | emulators are nice but full 3d proper games would be nicer :D |
| 23:29.34 | Luke-Jr | "The QWERTY keyboard itself is a real treat. The keys are large and provide decent feedback so you can type at enviable speed. In fact, just for the sake of experiment, a good part of this preview was written on the handset itself. It wasn't the quickest way to do it of course, but it surely doesn't get much better in mobile phone terms." |
| 23:29.39 | GeneralAntilles | mrmcq2u, OK, how about PS1? |

| 23:29.43 | mrmcq2u | that is in my opinion why the palmpre has not been as successful as hoped, they didnt have any way with competing with apple from a gaming aspect |

| 23:35.41 | javispedro | with accelerometer. |
| 23:35.59 | javispedro | are you in amsterdam already or what? ;) |
| 23:36.14 | wazd | javispedro: I never leave it :D |
| 23:36.41 | pupnik | heh |
| 23:37.18 | mrmcq2u | eh, well I am not a huge gamer myself which comes in handy considering I use 100% oss whenever I can but I don't think its outrageous to see a link between market share and gaming from both a desktop and mobile perspective, spec wise the n900 has the potential but some standards woudn't go astray. N-gage has done a good job at introducing social gaming to the portable market but its a fairly closed implementation. Maybe an open gaming alliance should be for |
| 23:37.21 | javispedro | pupnik, was thinking about n900 n64 emu, but seeing the psp's manages only 2-3 fps in mario64.. seems the omap3 hw won't be enough. |
| 23:37.41 | pupnik | that is the general consensus |
| 23:37.53 | Luke-Jr | HTC Touch Pro2 seems like a Linux port is possible ö |
| 23:38.01 | Luke-Jr | and it actually has a row of number keys |
| 23:38.09 | lardman | night all |
| 23:38.21 | simula | night |
| 23:38.22 | pupnik | night lardman |
| 23:39.42 | pupnik | pizzatime |
| 23:40.15 | GeneralAntilles | loves hypocrisy. |
| 23:41.26 | mrmcq2u | that was random? |
| 23:41.40 | GeneralAntilles | mrmcq2u, nah, there's a history. ;) |
| 23:41.41 | Luke-Jr | GeneralAntilles: have I not made perfectly clear that I don't care so much about vendor Linux support as *potential* Linux support from specs? |
| 23:41.54 | Luke-Jr | I couldn't care less if a device ships with Linux |
| 23:42.04 | Luke-Jr | I'm buying it for the hardware. |
| 23:42.08 | GeneralAntilles | So clearly you don't care to see Linux succeed. |
| 23:42.24 | GeneralAntilles | But such is the way of zealots. |
| 23:42.26 | Luke-Jr | What I want is hardware specifications so Linux can properly support it. |
| 23:42.27 | mrmcq2u | buying what? |
| 23:42.38 | SpeedEvil | GeneralAntilles: you should also imply he molests penguins. |
| 23:42.42 | Luke-Jr | GeneralAntilles: I don't really care about Linux itself even. I care about not running proprietary software, and having something usable. |
| 23:42.44 | SpeedEvil | sighs. |
| 23:42.56 | Luke-Jr | a proprietary Linux OS doesn't fit that bill |
| 23:43.14 | Luke-Jr | mrmcq2u: a handheld/phone/PC |
| 23:43.17 | mrmcq2u | confused |
| 23:43.22 | timeless_mbp | SpeedEvil: please do your penguin molesting elsewhere |
| 23:43.22 | *** join/#maemo benh (n=benh@nat/ibm/x-jiqvgihyegdntmzv) |
| 23:43.57 | Luke-Jr | mrmcq2u: I'm researching phones like Samsung OmniaPRO which ship with Windows Mobile, but (can) have proper Linux support |
| 23:44.19 | GeneralAntilles | Rather than supporting manufacturer's who are trying to move Linux forward. |
| 23:44.19 | GeneralAntilles | Clever. |
| 23:44.25 | Luke-Jr | as alternatives to a N900 which ships with Linux, but using it as a loophole for proprietary blobs in userspace |
| 23:44.42 | Luke-Jr | GeneralAntilles: proprietary blobs don't move the free software community forward. |
| 23:44.53 | Luke-Jr | specifications do |
| 23:45.01 | timeless_mbp | Luke-Jr: erm |
| 23:45.17 | timeless_mbp | if a company assigns 50 people for 2 years to 30 oss projects |
| 23:45.29 | mrmcq2u | Well sometimes its just not possible to buy a linux based phone, no linux based phones in ireland for example.. and any linux phones out have a huge price so I wouldn't blame someone for getting a proprietary phone cheaply at a local vendor |
| 23:45.34 | timeless_mbp | and happens to in one area where it can't get what it needs otherwise use a blob |
| 23:45.35 | GeneralAntilles | Right, zealots. |
| 23:45.39 | SpeedEvil | mrmcq2u: not quite true. |
| 23:45.39 | timeless_mbp | is that one blob really so wrong? |
| 23:45.50 | Luke-Jr | timeless_mbp: I'm aware of one Nokia developer who is actually helping mainstream OSS projects, and he is doing it in his spare time, not paid time. |
| 23:45.51 | GeneralAntilles | timeless_mbp, yes. |
| 23:45.53 | timeless_mbp | the community still got the engineering from the other 50 people for those two years |
| 23:45.58 | GeneralAntilles | I'm also pretty sure Nokia supports pedophilia. |
| 23:46.01 | timeless_mbp | Luke-Jr: thanks for the insult |
| 23:46.06 | timeless_mbp | now, either go away, or i will |
| 23:46.10 | SpeedEvil | mrmcq2u: Freerunner for exampel. |
| 23:46.15 | SpeedEvil | le |
| 23:46.19 | GeneralAntilles | Luke-Jr, you're quickly using up your warnings here. |
| 23:46.28 | Luke-Jr | timeless_mbp: are you a Nokia developer? |
| 23:46.30 | GeneralAntilles | I'm going to call that #2 since I'm a nice guy and neglected to issue on earlier. |
| 23:46.32 | Luke-Jr | how exactly did I insult you? |
| 23:46.39 | GeneralAntilles | s/on/one/ |
| 23:46.43 | timeless_mbp | figure it out. |
| 23:46.59 | timeless_mbp | i keep a profile on maemo.org |
| 23:46.59 | mrmcq2u | the n900 seems to be the first linux based phone I wouldnt mind spending some cash on because it actually has good specs as apposed to the android devices which have been released and you arent force fed dalvik |
| 23:47.05 | GeneralAntilles | Cut the trolling and general jackassery or find another channel to hang out in. |
| 23:47.31 | timeless_mbp | mrmcq2u: fwiw, i'd rather people avoid insulting other platforms too |
| 23:47.41 | timeless_mbp | it's really not much more appropriate than insulting developers |
| 23:48.01 | timeless_mbp | again, if you want to insult things, use talk.m.o |
| 23:48.04 | SpeedEvil | mrmcq2u: freerunner is completely open - but has somewhat old specs :/ |
| 23:48.09 | GeneralAntilles | Somewhat |
| 23:48.14 | GeneralAntilles | and godawful battery life. |
| 23:48.31 | mrmcq2u | Im not insulting it, I am just saying that I see maemo as a full linux distro whereas dalvik forced people to use one language for a long time and write everything from scratch |
| 23:48.55 | Luke-Jr | timeless_mbp: you're also assuming you're not the one developer I mentioned. (maemo.org's profile says nothing about who you are or what you've done, btw) |
| 23:49.00 | GeneralAntilles | It's interesting that neither Palm nor Google really wished to leverage Linux for their own platform. |
| 23:49.12 | GeneralAntilles | Luke-Jr, I can name at least a dozen off the top of my head. |
| 23:49.13 | sharpneli | I just cant help myself. I always read dalvik as dalek :E |
| 23:49.15 | GeneralAntilles | So STFU. |
| 23:49.21 | mrmcq2u | dalvik - android |
| 23:49.40 | timeless_mbp | Luke-Jr: it gives you the basics |
| 23:49.46 | GeneralAntilles | They both seem more interested in locking people into their ecosystem. |
| 23:49.52 | timeless_mbp | the rest, google would explain foryou |
| 23:50.26 | Luke-Jr | http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=nokia+timeless+developer <-- useless, oh well |
| 23:50.26 | javispedro | GeneralAntilles, I can sympathize with them. Trying to push GTK as a capable mainstream development platform requires faith. Rehashing someone else's API does not. |
| 23:50.27 | Luke-Jr | bbl |
| 23:50.51 | timeless_mbp | http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=maemo+timeless+developer&btnG=Search&meta= |
| 23:51.27 | timeless_mbp | really, practice using google. |
| 23:51.30 | GeneralAntilles | Sadly I still like the idea of that Who's Who. |
| 23:53.26 | wazd | http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=andrew+zhilin&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=252c6d681565ba35 :P |
| 23:53.48 | timeless_mbp | wazd: # != ? |
| 23:54.16 | wazd | timeless_mbp: what? :) |
| 23:54.29 | timeless_mbp | try clicking your link |
| 23:54.34 | timeless_mbp | it doesn't do anything for me |
| 23:54.44 | wazd | hmm |
| 23:54.50 | wazd | http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=andrew+zhilin&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=1&cad=b |
| 23:54.55 | javispedro | it is one of those new javascript-happy links |
| 23:55.02 | wazd | stoopid google links :( |
| 23:55.08 | javispedro | behold, how they're breaking the web. |
| 23:55.30 | wazd | The funniest thing is |
| 23:55.43 | wazd | That Andrew Zhilin who made Emacs icon is not me :D |
| 23:56.07 | javispedro | wazd, since clicking on your link google has started being javascript happy here too |
| 23:56.10 | SpeedEvil | has once had an invitation to go on a polar expedition because of a nameclash. |
| 23:56.14 | SpeedEvil | Fun. |
| 23:56.24 | timeless_mbp | http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=andrew+zhilin&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=1&cad=b |
| 23:56.25 | javispedro | time to clear cookies... |
| 23:56.27 | SpeedEvil | (canadian polar bear scientist who is not me) |
| 23:56.28 | timeless_mbp | seems to work as a link |
| 23:56.46 | javispedro | google doing some testing on a live server I think. |
| 23:57.02 | wazd | SpeedEvil: no, seriously, another guy that makes icons for OS Software with same name :) |
| 23:57.38 | SpeedEvil | wazd: yes - I wasn't doubting - I was just commenting on my nameclash) |
| 23:58.21 | SpeedEvil | timeless_mbp: for me that's a completely blank page. Fun. |
| 23:58.41 | timeless_mbp | hrm |
| 23:58.42 | wazd | timeless_mbp: for me too |
| 23:58.48 | timeless_mbp | gives up |
