| 00:21.17 | javispedro | yeah, i'm on performance governor, so consider this a arm11 400Mhz CPU. |

| 00:22.55 | javispedro | Woolly, some wiicontrol problem? |
| 00:23.19 | SpeedEvil | javispedro: does the CPU have FP? |
| 00:23.21 | Woolly | I'm going to write a status bar application to handle wii remotes |
| 00:23.29 | zerojayPC | I don't know for sure... I just know I never hear anyone talking about it. |
| 00:23.30 | Woolly | to replace the GUI application, which IMO is pretty poor |
| 00:23.41 | javispedro | SpeedEvil, yes, and also we've found it is actively using it (the rest of the base system does NOT use it) |
| 00:24.07 | javispedro | so indeed either: they are doing some heavy calculations, or the code is from somewhere else. |
| 00:24.17 | SpeedEvil | Woolly: including the wii guitar? |
| 00:24.18 | javispedro | (the FP is VFP) |
| 00:24.27 | Woolly | SpeedEvil: wii guitar? |
| 00:24.51 | javispedro | naa, wiicontrol only handles wiimote, no extensions. |
| 00:25.10 | javispedro | (well, maybe the nunchuk, never tried :P ) |
| 00:25.14 | Woolly | that's a shame, maybe it could be extended |
| 00:25.32 | Woolly | the connector is i^2c |
| 00:25.33 | javispedro | Woolly, the author said the only reason he didn't add support for the classical controller was because he hadn't one |
| 00:25.37 | SpeedEvil | Someone _has_ to make a chording keyboard for the guitar :) |
| 00:25.41 | Woolly | javispedro: ahh thanks :) |
| 00:26.11 | Woolly | javispedro: I'd like to become involved, but have never really gotten involved with any projects before, so dont know where to begin |
| 00:26.17 | SpeedEvil | javispedro: the 200MHz 11% number was without FP unit |
| 00:26.28 | SpeedEvil | javispedro: so it's in the same ballpark |
| 00:26.34 | javispedro | seems so., |
| 00:28.11 | javispedro | fwiw, the binary size is 116K ( i don't know the first thing about gps); do you think it could house the required algorithms? |
| 00:28.25 | SpeedEvil | yes |
| 00:28.33 | SpeedEvil | tries to remember size of gllin |
| 00:28.50 | javispedro | I saw PI as a 32-bit fp constant in the binary |
| 00:29.04 | javispedro | I don't know what PI could be used for if it's not for GPS-related calculations. |
| 00:29.32 | javispedro | so I guess the idea it's a dumb application translating gps data has fewer chances now. |
| 00:29.49 | SpeedEvil | http://3rdparty.downloads.openmoko.org/gllin/ |
| 00:30.11 | SpeedEvil | is the GPS binary for the GTA01 openmoko |
| 00:30.45 | javispedro | well, I don't plan to _use_ the software, so ... clicks accept. |
| 00:31.29 | SpeedEvil | C would probably be in there as a constant too |
| 00:31.40 | SpeedEvil | 299*10^6 (about) |
| 00:31.50 | javispedro | yea but I can only for exact integer values |
| 00:31.56 | javispedro | *only look |
| 00:32.09 | javispedro | so either it's a common one (M_E, M_PI,...) or... |
| 00:32.38 | javispedro | gglin is 1,6 MiB. |
| 00:32.43 | javispedro | *gllin |
| 00:33.03 | javispedro | and gpsdriver links with glib (think bloat) and even then it's still only 150~KiB. |
| 00:33.35 | SpeedEvil | it's got a mess - there is a chroot jail round it I think |

| 03:25.48 | zerojayPC | lol... 60? I hope you don't mean karma. |
| 03:25.58 | smackpotat | yep |
| 03:26.12 | zerojayPC | Yeah, 60 probably isn't going to do it. |
| 03:26.22 | zerojayPC | If they use karma as criteria at all. |
| 03:26.51 | zerojayPC | We don't even know IF there will be a dev discount so... |
| 03:28.09 | smackpotat | if they give out 500 about 64 does it im a bit to low. what do you think they will use |
| 03:28.27 | smackpotat | if anything |
| 03:28.54 | zerojayPC | Probably handpicked with karma as a secondary helper. |
| 03:29.02 | smackpotat | ahh |
| 03:30.05 | zerojayPC | Put it this way: |
| 03:30.10 | zerojayPC | I have 575 karma. |
| 03:30.15 | smackpotat | so stacking my karma with thankyous on itt isint going to help me |
| 03:30.17 | zerojayPC | I'm not sure I'll get one. |
| 03:30.57 | smackpotat | if they give out any youl get one |
| 03:31.08 | zerojayPC | Depends on what you're getting the thank yous for, I guess. |
| 03:31.32 | zerojayPC | If you're visible in the community and you have a project you're working on, I would imagine there's a good chance you get one. |
| 03:32.20 | smackpotat | do you have a project |
| 03:32.28 | zerojayPC | Not even sure it would be all that useful for me anyways if it's really locked down to Tmobile. |
| 03:32.45 | zerojayPC | I have my finger in a few different pies, yes. |

| 03:34.34 | zerojayPC | Yeah... I post too much, lol |
| 03:34.55 | smackpotat | not |
| 03:35.41 | zerojayPC | Making up for lost time, I suppose. I've been away from the community for a while through reasons beyond my control. |
| 03:35.54 | zerojayPC | Such as the N810 developer discount fiasco. |
| 03:36.01 | smackpotat | what do you think. will nokia come out with a dedicated internet tablet without a phone |
| 03:36.36 | zerojayPC | I doubt it. |
| 03:37.04 | smackpotat | what was the fiasco |
| 03:37.25 | zerojayPC | The whole point of the previous tablets was to foster a development community and an OS/UI for mainstream public. They knew the previous ones weren't going to be for everyone. |
| 03:37.52 | zerojayPC | Well, I got my N810 developer discount and I'm in Canada and the Canadian Nokia store page is completely fucked. |
| 03:38.15 | zerojayPC | I had sold my N800 to a friend that week, expecting to use the cash to pay for the N810. |
| 03:38.27 | zerojayPC | The store was fucked. |
| 03:38.33 | zerojayPC | US store wouldn't accept my code. |
| 03:39.00 | zerojayPC | After months of going back and forth, I got new codes which the sites wouldn't allow. |
| 03:39.07 | smackpotat | no you lost out |
| 03:39.24 | smackpotat | canadian here i got mine |
| 03:39.53 | zerojayPC | Finally, after about 10 months... during which time I didn't really hang around as much for obvious reasons... Quim mailed me an N810 completely free with an apology. |
| 03:40.14 | zerojayPC | Cool, great... I finally have it. |
| 03:40.20 | zerojayPC | 2 weeks later, battery dies completely. |
| 03:40.32 | smackpotat | but you lost out on the fun for almost a year |
| 03:40.38 | zerojayPC | Longer. |
| 03:40.59 | zerojayPC | I had more important shit to take care of than buying a battery, so the tablet sat on my desk for months. |
| 03:41.15 | zerojayPC | Then one day... about two months ago, I suddenly heard it come on. |
| 03:41.26 | zerojayPC | I freaked out... threw it on the charger and it was working again just fine. |
| 03:41.39 | smackpotat | ha |
| 03:41.54 | zerojayPC | But during that entire time... it wouldn't charge. Plugging in the charger would just make the tablet turn itself off. |
| 03:42.04 | zerojayPC | So I don't know what happened.. but yeah... I wasn't happy about it. |

| 08:15.59 | aquatix | you mean there isn't one? |
| 08:16.05 | aquatix | dang |
| 08:16.07 | kvalo | AM radio receiver? hah |
| 08:16.28 | jaem | rofl |
| 08:16.55 | thux | this step to n810 to n900 seems bigger than n770 to n800 or n800 to n810 |
| 08:17.13 | Stskeeps | 770 to n800 was a big step too |
| 08:17.53 | Stskeeps | n800 to n810 not so much |
| 08:18.33 | RST38h | Sts: Can I have a shortwave radio in N900? With PLL please? |
| 08:19.14 | RST38h | Sts: Preferably something that will let me receive in 1MHz-2.5GHz range, no gaps, so that we can officially call N900 a tricorder =) |

| 08:28.55 | pillar | jaem yes, looking for a Qt-friendly ide, is there some sort of plugin for eclipse or something |
| 08:29.24 | jaem | pillar: I've never used Eclipse, but I would give full recommendations for KDevelop4, even though it's still in beta |
| 08:29.40 | jaem | Nokia's QtCreator is also nice, but isn't as full-featured |
| 08:30.10 | jaem | I'm using KDevelop4 right now, and I love it |
| 08:30.31 | jaem | which distro are you using? |
| 08:31.03 | pillar | ok, will have to take a look. I have done java development with eclipse beforehand so that's why that was my first idea |
| 08:31.08 | pillar | Ubuntu |
| 08:31.21 | jaem | you can probably find a PPA that has the beta |

| 11:14.08 | SpeedEvil | lardman: have you added this thought to the bug out of interest? I had certainly written it off as a black box which spat out the location and did all the processing inside, I think others had too |

| 11:22.59 | lardman | hi javispedro |
| 11:23.24 | javispedro | ah hi lardman, did you get a lock with the gps? |
| 11:23.33 | lardman | no, was asleep :) |
| 11:23.35 | javispedro | i got yesterday and measured 3-4% cpu usage at performance |
| 11:23.49 | lardman | hmm |
| 11:23.57 | lardman | I think some stracing might be in order |
| 11:24.09 | javispedro | according to ShellHack (iirc) that may meant is doing the heavy calculations |
| 11:24.10 | lardman | it's quite exciting actually, to think that we might be able to fix the gps |
| 11:24.23 | javispedro | since he mentioned 15% or the like CPU usage in 200Mhz without FP. |
| 11:24.26 | lardman | yeah, I think that's probably right |
| 11:25.03 | javispedro | btw lardman,check the dspdriver debian changelog. there's some info there (apparently some nokian enabled vfp to fix some internal bug) |
| 11:25.18 | lardman | need to reverse engineer the binary properly, last time I think I just quickly looked to see if nvd_data was read in |
| 11:25.30 | lardman | gpsdriver? |
| 11:25.59 | javispedro | yep, get it from the tableteer and reinstall (cause docpurge will have done its job on your tablet ;) ) |
| 11:26.17 | lardman | I'll just grab it from the repo |
| 11:26.55 | SpeedEvil | javispedro: /me = shellevil |
| 11:27.01 | SpeedEvil | javispedro: this is my normal nick |
| 11:27.08 | RST38h | heya javis |
| 11:27.18 | javispedro | hi SpeedEvil :) |
| 11:27.22 | SpeedEvil | hi. |
| 11:27.25 | javispedro | and rst |
| 11:28.10 | lardman | hmm, javispedro, do you have a link for the tableteer repo? |
| 11:28.25 | javispedro | not at hand, i have to check it up |

| 11:29.08 | lardman | thanks qwerty12_N810 |
| 11:29.08 | Macer | hm |
| 11:29.16 | qwerty12_N810 | password is in maemo's apt's source |
| 11:29.21 | Macer | http://www.alwaysinnovating.com/touchbook/gallery.htm |
| 11:29.35 | lardman | tries to think back to what it was |
| 11:29.48 | Macer | i wonder if that "tablet interface" is using the 3d chipset |
| 11:29.50 | javispedro | heh, i just reinstalled from tablet apt-get |
| 11:30.05 | Macer | well.. the 3d properties of the arm or something |
| 11:30.41 | javispedro | but don't get too excited either, the changelog is in the usual secretive parlance, only it confirms they do have a reason to use vfp, but does not say why. |
| 11:31.10 | RST38h | Why don't I see anyone masturbating at Pandora any more? |
| 11:31.11 | javispedro | and talks about certain libraries I assume they got from TI. |
| 11:31.21 | lcuk | licensing question, gpl vs mit on the maemo-developers ML http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2009-August/020340.html |
| 11:31.34 | lcuk | are they compatible? |
| 11:32.12 | javispedro | the MIT is a common one, I'd be surprised if it does not appear on the FSF page |
| 11:32.14 | RST38h | lcuk: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License |

| 11:34.52 | Macer | hm. didn't know the touch book can auto-switch to portrait mode |
| 11:35.09 | RST38h | Macer: No. Did touchbook? |
| 11:35.14 | Macer | yes |
| 11:35.22 | Macer | people hve started to receive pre-orders |
| 11:35.29 | RST38h | did you receive yours? |
| 11:35.32 | Macer | no :( |
| 11:35.34 | Firebird | mmm, how does one become the maintainer of their own package at maemo.org/packages , the request link doesn't seem to work |
| 11:35.36 | Macer | i ordered a little later tho |
| 11:35.38 | Macer | in may |
| 11:35.41 | RST38h | then it has not come out until you receive yours |
| 11:35.46 | Macer | haha |
| 11:35.58 | Macer | no. the internets have people receiving them |
| 11:36.03 | javispedro | Firebird, which request link? :O |
| 11:36.15 | RST38h | internets people are all fiction = |
| 11:36.17 | Macer | RST38h: i didn't even know wtf pandora was until ike last month |
| 11:36.33 | Macer | isn't it supposed to be a game system? |
| 11:36.44 | RST38h | Macer: it is supposed to be a replacement for GamePark |
| 11:36.52 | Macer | wtf is gamepark? |
| 11:36.52 | Macer | :) |
| 11:36.53 | RST38h | Built by British GP reseller |
| 11:37.07 | Macer | you mean vapored? |

| 11:37.08 | Macer | heh |
| 11:37.31 | Macer | someone said pandora was due out a year ago :) |
| 11:37.37 | Macer | a YEAR |
| 11:37.41 | javispedro | bah, is the pandora ever going to appear? |
| 11:37.42 | Firebird | javispedro, http://maemo.org/packages/view/pokerth/ see that "Request to be maintainer of this package" |
| 11:38.00 | RST38h | http://www.demotivation.ru/vs39nbg94vdxpic.html <=== "SHINIGAMI. Finishing my tea and taking care of this plane." |
| 11:38.31 | javispedro | Firebird, I onced clicked there and got to be maintainer of BlueMaemo (sorry :P), but that only appeared in the packages interface itself, not on /downloads |
| 11:38.52 | Firebird | ah, all it does is take me to a log-in page loop |
| 11:38.57 | Firebird | *for me |
| 11:39.26 | javispedro | this was before X-Fade (iirc) added the confirmation page |
| 11:40.08 | RST38h | Macer: Pandora had "disaster" written all over it really. But, on the bright side, we have got a huge selection of Linux running ARM gadgets to choose from now |
| 11:40.10 | javispedro | is that request link be supposed to affect /downloads, either way? |
| 11:40.45 | lardman | interesting reference to a HyPE library in that changelog |
| 11:40.49 | RST38h | lcuk: BTW, you do not have to choose a premade license for your stuff |
| 11:40.59 | lcuk | i have gpl already :) |
| 11:41.01 | javispedro | rings any bell lardman? we were looking for it yesterday but found nothing |
| 11:41.05 | lcuk | and im happy with it |
| 11:41.06 | RST38h | lcuk: Ah |
| 11:41.13 | lardman | no |
| 11:41.13 | lcuk | i just got nervous cos it was |
| 11:41.17 | lcuk | different |
| 11:41.24 | Macer | RST38h: not newer gen arms ;) |
| 11:41.39 | RST38h | Macer: newer gen arms too |
| 11:41.41 | lardman | javispedro: we'll just have to reverse the code I guess, I see there's a few large functions, and lots of small ones |
| 11:41.45 | Macer | RST38h: like what? |
| 11:42.04 | Macer | the only one i can think of that has been actually released has been the touch book |
| 11:42.13 | Macer | and maybe a couple phones that use a newer arm |

| 11:42.43 | Macer | Archos? |

| 11:43.04 | Macer | isn't Pre a phone :) |
| 11:43.10 | javispedro | lardman, yeah, the large ones sound difficult. the app is based on a glib main loop, so at least we know where to start :D |
| 11:43.12 | SpeedEvil | Macer: freerunner! :) |
| 11:43.16 | lardman | has been cortex for a while hasn't it? |
| 11:43.20 | lardman | first one out infact I thought |
| 11:43.21 | RST38h | I said "gadget", Pre qualifies |
| 11:43.26 | SpeedEvil | (though it is somewhat older arm) |
| 11:43.28 | Macer | SpeedEvil: haha |
| 11:43.46 | RST38h | BTW, there is also that iRiver (?) iPodish gadget |
| 11:43.47 | Macer | so ... 3 things? :) |
| 11:43.52 | SpeedEvil | It is however infinitely faster than pandora with the newer arm :) |
| 11:43.56 | Macer | is an iriver a8? |
| 11:44.04 | RST38h | Macer: Well, I did not wanrt to mention iPhone, but it is also Cortex based |
| 11:44.15 | Macer | haha |
| 11:44.24 | lardman | javispedro: though how we work out the functionality will be another question, going from the wonders of reversed to decent C is painful |
| 11:44.30 | lardman | I should try writing a tool to do that |
| 11:44.34 | RST38h | Macer: Touchbook also qualifies |
| 11:44.35 | Macer | | Maemo 5 will not be available for 770/n8x0/iPhone |

| 11:44.52 | Macer | was maemo available for an iphone? |
| 11:45.03 | javispedro | Macer, I guess someone asked for it here ;) |
| 11:45.04 | lardman | no |
| 11:45.16 | Macer | maemo for iphone? |
| 11:45.19 | Macer | isn't there an app that does that? |
| 11:45.27 | Macer | :) |
| 11:45.34 | Macer | sorry. couldn't help it... bbl |
| 11:45.47 | wazd | ahahaha |
| 11:45.57 | RST38h | Well, nothing prevents us from creating a fictional Garage project that ports Mer to iPhone |
| 11:46.00 | wazd | I've found a blooper in maemo 5 promo movie :D |
| 11:46.04 | lcuk | wazd, paste the stuff you posted into a mail |
| 11:46.09 | javispedro | yep, you buy an iphone, a n900, install vncviewer on iphone, use x11vnc on n900, et voilà ! |
| 11:46.11 | RST38h | I am sure wazd will oblige with some screenshots, etc |
| 11:46.11 | wazd | lcuk: ok |
| 11:46.18 | lcuk | ta :) |
| 11:46.22 | RST38h | wazd: ? |
| 11:46.36 | wazd | RST38h: http://maemo.nokia.com/? that one on the main page |
| 11:47.14 | wazd | RST38h: last seconds, hand locks the device, but the lock stays up |
| 11:47.26 | lardman | javispedro: I guess looking for where it interfaces with the GPS chipset is the best bet, then we can start talking to it, or try intercepting the comms |
| 11:47.36 | RST38h | I told myself NOT TO WATCH THIS MOVIE AGAIN |
| 11:47.36 | wazd | maybe it returns to the top though :) |
| 11:47.49 | wazd | RST38h: why? pretty cool :P |
| 11:47.51 | javispedro | lardman, I thought it was pure serial? is there something else? |
| 11:47.56 | RST38h | Had to clean floor of saliva three times already |
| 11:48.07 | RST38h | That's why =) |
| 11:49.13 | lardman | javispedro: gpsdriver <-> Ti5300? I don't know |
| 11:49.23 | wazd | RST38h: yeah, I'm trying to keep myself :) |
| 11:49.25 | lcuk | that vid is really cool :$ |
| 11:49.26 | javispedro | well, there's a serial channel for sure there. |
| 11:49.39 | lardman | the chipset isn't exposed to the outside world |
| 11:49.44 | javispedro | (my tablet is charging at the moment so can't confirm) |
| 11:49.52 | javispedro | the app opened /dev/ttyS0 |
| 11:49.54 | lardman | that serial channel /dev entry is for the output |
| 11:50.00 | lardman | NMEA strings |
| 11:50.02 | javispedro | ttyS0?? |
| 11:50.03 | javispedro | no |
| 11:50.05 | RST38h | wazd: I see what you mean, it is not a mistake |
| 11:50.06 | lardman | no? |
| 11:50.07 | javispedro | that wasn't NMEA at all. |
| 11:50.20 | RST38h | wazd: the lock slider behaves the same as one in n810 |
| 11:50.28 | javispedro | unless I'm in idiot, which could be... |
| 11:50.30 | RST38h | wazdL locks the device and goes back into its original position |
| 11:50.35 | lardman | hmm, how does gpsd talk to the GPS then? |
| 11:50.40 | wazd | RST38h: I don't have n810, but I guess 5800 has the same |
| 11:50.41 | javispedro | /dev/pgps |
| 11:50.55 | lardman | ah ok, in which case it might be easier |
| 11:50.59 | RST38h | wazd: yea, but smaller and punier |
| 11:51.10 | RST38h | wazd: n810 has got a real metal slider, very nice |
| 11:51.19 | lardman | javispedro: been a long time since I looked at this, all forgotten now :) |
| 11:51.52 | lardman | have you collected output from the serial device then? |
| 11:51.55 | javispedro | np, I don't know the first thing about GPS.. (not even NMEA) |
| 11:51.59 | javispedro | yes lardman |
| 11:52.05 | lardman | NMEA is just ascii, you'd recognise it |
| 11:52.20 | javispedro | damn, it's on the tablet too |
| 11:52.26 | javispedro | I want to let it charge in peace. |
| 11:52.29 | RST38h | ttyS0 is *not* a GPS, folks |
| 11:52.46 | lardman | what is it? |
| 11:53.01 | RST38h | Most likely a debug port |
| 11:53.07 | RST38h | But it is just my wild guess |
| 11:53.18 | lardman | it might be a serial channel to the GPS chipset |
| 11:53.35 | lardman | that would be in the kernel code of course |
| 11:53.42 | lardman | so we could check and see |

| 11:54.04 | javispedro | ok, I'm booting the tablet... :P |
| 11:54.25 | javispedro | damn thing is that /proc does not show fds for devices |
| 11:54.36 | RST38h | Even if they are mapped to some tty devices (probably not or somebody would have found by now), it is VERY unlikely ttyS0 would be used |

| 11:55.48 | lardman | RST38h: yeah might be |
| 11:55.49 | javispedro | what does gpsdriver have to do with an external gps? isn't that gpsd job. |
| 11:55.53 | javispedro | ? |
| 11:56.05 | lardman | I think so, but who knows ;) |
| 11:56.18 | RST38h | lardman: Looking at Ubuntu desktop, it tends to map USB RS232 devices to ttyS* |
| 11:56.37 | javispedro | ttyUSB* in debian here |
| 11:56.39 | RST38h | lardman: it is possible that BT serial devices are mapped there as well |
| 11:56.48 | javispedro | RST38h, no, the device exists here. |
| 11:56.57 | javispedro | I can read and write to it. |
| 11:57.13 | RST38h | hmm |
| 11:57.20 | RST38h | What does it return? |
| 11:57.28 | javispedro | blocks. |
| 11:57.41 | javispedro | (for reads) |
| 11:57.47 | javispedro | writes go through. |
| 11:57.55 | RST38h | does not return anything then... |
| 11:58.25 | javispedro | wait until I get gpsdriver to do its magic. |
| 11:59.14 | javispedro | gpsdriver opens /dev/ttyS0 O_RDW |
| 11:59.21 | RST38h | mhm |
| 11:59.22 | javispedro | and reads a LOT of information from it. |
| 11:59.32 | javispedro | its outputting information now |
| 11:59.51 | RST38h | ok...when you run Map or something that initializes GPS, and while it is running read /dev/ttyS0, does it read anything? =) |
| 11:59.52 | javispedro | not nmea commands, but the same 250-750 byte packets I found yesterday |
| 11:59.56 | javispedro | yes |
| 12:00.22 | javispedro | it does some ioctls on it, i don't know if they're standard serial or something propietary. |
| 12:00.23 | lardman | gpsdriver talks about getting "attributes" from the serial port |
| 12:00.46 | javispedro | if the ioctls are propietary they should appear in kernel. |
| 12:01.06 | javispedro | reading from /dev/ttyS0 also "robs" the data from gpsdriver |
| 12:01.14 | javispedro | so now gpsd does not output any NMEA data |
| 12:01.16 | RST38h | adding proprietary ioctls to a generic tty device would be a hack =) |
| 12:02.01 | RST38h | Oh wait somebody has researched it before! |
| 12:02.03 | javispedro | btw, the packages start becoming more interesting (more visual entropy) as the number of satellites |

| 12:02.20 | RST38h | Look here: http://andrew.daviel.org/N810-FAQ.html |
| 12:02.20 | RST38h | (search for ttyS0) |
| 12:03.02 | javispedro | heh, I'm doing what he says to test this |
| 12:03.08 | javispedro | only with strace |
| 12:04.00 | RST38h | cannot believe they used ttyS0 for gps...Mhm |
| 12:04.19 | javispedro | try it if you want, /etc/init.d/gpsdriver stop, strace /usr/sbin/gpsdriver, /usr/libexec/navicore-gps[tab-complete] ;) , cat /dev/ttyS= |
| 12:05.05 | lardman | does it write any data to the tty? |
| 12:05.18 | javispedro | lardman, during the first 30 seconds or so it writes like crazy |
| 12:05.31 | lardman | hmm, so it might be sending over the almanac |
| 12:05.40 | javispedro | not a file though, since it seems to read inbetween |
| 12:05.58 | lardman | well it might write a sat, then check for reponse,e tc |
| 12:06.50 | javispedro | if you can get better serial monitor tools than doing hd /dev/ttyS0 you may get the accumulated sizes of what is transferred and correlate with nvd_data |

| 12:08.43 | javispedro | Ctrl+C'd hd /dev/ttyS0 and gpsd starts outputting nmea again :) |
| 12:10.00 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: tehre are only so many ports on the SoC - the GTA01 had the GPS on tty02 IIRC. |
| 12:10.12 | lardman | the question is just whether gpsdriver reformats the already processed output from ttyS0, or if it accepts raw data and does the processing |
| 12:10.34 | javispedro | i'm yet to see it writing something to ttyS0 after the initial processing |
| 12:10.41 | SpeedEvil | tries to work out a nice case. |
| 12:11.30 | RST38h | SpeedEvil: You mean they simply plugged 5300 into the SoC hw serial port? |
| 12:11.38 | *** join/#maemo MrGoose (n=cache@5ac86e7c.bb.sky.com) |
| 12:11.56 | RST38h | Instead of using the I2C ports? |
| 12:12.02 | SpeedEvil | If it is fairly dumb - and can only lock and track satellites with hints given by the blob - then you will see new configs every hour or so as new GPSs rise. |
| 12:12.05 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: yes |
| 12:12.11 | RST38h | Ehehe |
| 12:12.26 | RST38h | on the other hand, it makes things simpler |
| 12:12.36 | RST38h | for programmers that is |
| 12:12.41 | lardman | gpsdriver does do lots of calculations though, so chances are it is indeed doing the heavy lifting |
| 12:12.47 | lcuk | Jaffa, ping |
| 12:13.17 | RST38h | lardman: There is a guy from Bangalore on linkedin who claims he has done 5300 drivers |
| 12:13.23 | lardman | the function at offset BF5C is a beast |
| 12:13.31 | RST38h | lardman: Does not seem to be related to nokia |
| 12:13.38 | RST38h | lardman: maybe ask him for some pointers? |
| 12:13.42 | lardman | RST38h: fancy sending him an email and asking? |
| 12:13.50 | lardman | I'm not on linkedin |
| 12:13.56 | RST38h | Well I can try...a moment |
| 12:14.08 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: the hammerhead chip on the GTA01 openmoko device was a fairly dumb thing that talked over serial - and the host had to do all the heavy lifting - the position calculation. All the hammerhead did was the absolute hard-realtime stuff. |
| 12:14.30 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: and it used almost exactly the same CPU amount as the gps5300 blob |
| 12:15.01 | lardman | ok, so we need to work out what the blob outputs then |
| 12:15.10 | lardman | formatwise |
| 12:15.24 | lardman | and compare with http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Hammerhead/Protocol |
| 12:15.27 | SpeedEvil | Also - I would expect most OEMs who have 'written drivers' to have simply linked the binary library they get from TI into their own code. |

| 12:15.48 | lardman | that may be what that lib was we were talking about earlier |
| 12:15.54 | RST38h | lardman: It wants money to let me send him email |
| 12:15.58 | lardman | not in detail, but in terms of the sizes |
| 12:16.02 | lardman | lol |
| 12:16.05 | lardman | don't worry then |
| 12:16.34 | SpeedEvil | So 'I have written drivers' may be true - but uninteresting - as they've written a shim only - not the driver. |
| 12:16.35 | RST38h | SpeedEvil: Well, it seems logical thing to do, if you want to keep the gps chip size down (5300 is one of the smallest on the market) |
| 12:16.43 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: yep. |

| 15:07.11 | angasule | soap: in argentina we used to have a parallel... gah, I'm tired, customs? |
| 15:07.27 | angasule | soap: so smuggling was pretty much government work he |
| 15:07.29 | angasule | heh |
| 15:08.05 | angasule | soap: the VAT itself isn't the main problem, though (IVA = VAT), the customs tax of 60% is |
| 15:08.40 | angasule | technology salaries are 5-10 times highe in Europe, AND techie junk doesn't have the 60% tax |
| 15:08.48 | soap | you don't have under-the-table sales of non-imported goods to avoid the VAT? |
| 15:09.08 | angasule | so why would techheads stay here? it's lose-lose for us |
| 15:09.34 | soap | (and I dig that IVA = VAT, just stuck in my terminology). |
| 15:09.35 | angasule | oh, yeah, VAT avoidance is through the sky |

| 15:15.12 | javispedro | it's the usual MicroB. |
| 15:15.17 | angasule | I use konqueror with a status bar, a button on the top left for bookmarks and the URL bar |
| 15:15.28 | GiantTalkingCow | I once tried the most recent beta of mobile Firefox (aka Fennec). Great UI, but dog slow. |

| 15:18.33 | javispedro | http://maemo.nokia.com/images/uploads/entry-media/browser-web-standards.jpg |
| 15:18.38 | angasule | the problem with arora is the very lacking UI |
| 15:18.55 | angasule | which is understandable considering it was actually a minimal demo app for the webkit renderer :) |
| 15:19.02 | GiantTalkingCow | I agree. |
| 15:19.14 | angasule | my favourite UI is konqueror's, by far |
| 15:19.39 | Luke-Jr | I concur. |
| 15:19.54 | GiantTalkingCow | On a portable, I'd have to say the very latest Fennec. It take the best elements of Mobile Safari and combines them with Firefox. |

| 16:09.43 | soap | and the N8x0 battery is thermally protected, so unless you hook it up to mains and force 20C down it and overheat it to the point of catastrophic failure, no bad charging routine can destroy the battery. |
| 16:09.52 | pH5 | where is this information from? |
| 16:09.59 | Stskeeps | pH5: i think that was last indicatiin |
| 16:10.08 | Stskeeps | and closed libs |
| 16:10.11 | ShadowJK | soap, the protection only protects against the entire battery overheating |
| 16:10.21 | javispedro | the kmod is probably oss because most probably it just presents /dev nodes with mmap support |
| 16:10.22 | soap | which is how overcharging damages the battery. |
| 16:10.25 | javispedro | for the library to use. |
| 16:10.41 | ShadowJK | soap, overdischarging can also cause damage :) |
| 16:10.47 | soap | when power delivered exceeds the ability of the cell to dissipate excess as heat you get damage. |
| 16:11.05 | soap | thermal damage is /how/ overcharging damages cells. |
| 16:11.19 | soap | not two different things. |
| 16:11.26 | javispedro | lol Luke-Jr I said Nokia, I meant nvidia :P |
| 16:12.25 | soap | and when power consumed creates cell heat through the magic of internal cell resistance you get cell damage. (over discharging) |
| 16:12.32 | soap | again, through thermal damage. |
| 16:13.34 | javispedro | in fact, Nvidia does the kmod blob just for performance reasons. they could very easily switch to a shim kmod, all user-space approach easily, in case they ever get sued by their kmod (which I doubt). |
| 16:13.50 | soap | now pulling the cell below rated voltage is another issue all around - but again there are plenty of OSS examples of Li chemistry usage which protects from undervolting. |
| 16:13.50 | ShadowJK | soap, you can damage the battery through overdischarging at an extremely low rate that causes no heat buildup too |
| 16:13.55 | Luke-Jr | javispedro: no, they can't |
| 16:14.04 | Stskeeps | ph5: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=306518&postcount=279 |
| 16:14.15 | Luke-Jr | javispedro: even a shim kmod would require a Linux license |
| 16:14.19 | ShadowJK | and overcharging at low rate which doesn't cause heat also damages the battery |
| 16:14.22 | javispedro | shim oss kmod. |
| 16:14.23 | Luke-Jr | which they don't have |
| 16:14.30 | Luke-Jr | javispedro: no, real the GPL-2 ⺠|
| 16:14.41 | Luke-Jr | once you violate it, you no longer can just start complying |
| 16:14.49 | javispedro | gpl2. it would be a 100 lines kmod just mapping the card's mapped memory space into user space. |
| 16:14.52 | SpeedEvil | Is the DSP actually used? |
| 16:14.57 | soap | first statement is correct, ShadowJK, second one is wrong. |
| 16:15.03 | Luke-Jr | in the case of Linux, violation means you can never distribute kernel code again period |
| 16:15.12 | pH5 | Stskeeps: thanks! |
| 16:15.13 | soap | even excess voltage causes damage through thermal effects. |
| 16:15.21 | GAN8001 | Luke-Jr, reread the license. |
| 16:15.31 | Luke-Jr | javispedro: GPL-2 can't be resolved merely by starting to comply |
| 16:15.41 | ShadowJK | "When charging above 4.30V, the cell causes plating of metallic lithium on the anode; the cathode material becomes an oxidizing agent, loses stability and releases oxygen." |
| 16:15.42 | SpeedEvil | soap: No - it causes damage due to various non-thermal effects that manifest eventually as thermal. |
| 16:15.42 | javispedro | it can. thousands of companies have done it. |
| 16:15.47 | Luke-Jr | GAN8001: re-instatement is a GPL-3 term |

| 16:44.06 | RST38h | lcuk: GCC may support whatever it wants, once it gets to assembly level your 64bit code will look awful |
| 16:44.11 | lcuk | it worked when i debugged output |

| 16:57.21 | lcuk | dont care for size really |
| 16:57.27 | lcuk | modules are reasonable small |
| 16:57.31 | javispedro | yeah, but tends to generate better code some times. |
| 16:57.36 | lcuk | and even with loop rolling its clean enough |
| 16:57.54 | derf | It also tends not to kill your instruction cache. |

| 17:00.19 | javispedro | (for a start, it uses vfp) |

| 17:02.27 | angasule | neon == the DSP on the Cortex A8, right? |
| 17:02.31 | kulve | no |
| 17:02.47 | kulve | neon is new instruction set on armv7, something similar to vfp |
| 17:02.57 | javispedro | do we get all that int16x4 builtin types fun? |
| 17:03.00 | angasule | hmm, ok |
| 17:03.45 | kulve | for armv6 you can build with -mfpu=vfp and for armv7 with neon, you can build with -mfpu=neon |
| 17:04.01 | lcuk | what is neon? |
| 17:04.06 | lcuk | is that the chip in the n900 |
| 17:04.16 | kulve | but, as said, gcc doesn't really produce efficient neon instructions. Hand written neon is very very fast |
| 17:04.36 | kulve | neon is an instruction set found on most armv7 cores (which is what omap3 is) |
| 17:04.37 | lcuk | should look to optimize and replace some of his blitter routines with asm |
| 17:04.42 | lcuk | then i might actually have a fast system |

| 17:06.13 | lcuk | wow kulve :) i bet liqbase would flllllllllllllllllllllllllly with those optimizations |
| 17:06.23 | lcuk | it makes me wanting to use the dsp as a copro useless lol |
| 17:06.32 | derf | Replaced with -fivopts, that does what you described. |
| 17:06.39 | derf | Not sure where the bit that does what I described went. |
| 17:06.40 | GAN8001 | javispedro, the wikipedia people are always helpful because they help make the articles conform to proper formatting and structure. |

| 17:10.49 | javispedro | when I was playing the crazy opts for the mode7 renderer I found it was not true. |
| 17:11.12 | javispedro | -O2 was nearly 5fps faster. (probably, unrolling the loop caused it not to fit in cache or something like that). |
| 17:11.37 | derf | -O3 is highly application-dependent. |

| 17:58.09 | RST38h | So, the Maemo5 announceent has not been followed by another SDK release? |
| 17:58.47 | lardman|afk | you'll probably find it won't be finalised until they start shipping |

| 17:59.25 | javispedro | very convenient. |

| 17:59.54 | lardman|afk | well I imagine they'll keep fixing bugs up till that time, so no point in a release then another |
| 17:59.56 | javispedro | just to see if they fixed the happy colors in xephyr. |
| 18:00.01 | pupnik | sdl with hw scaling too |
| 18:00.21 | RST38h | and no official switch to sb2 yet? |
| 18:00.22 | slonopotamus | happy colors? |
| 18:00.32 | javispedro | RST38h, planned for harmattan afaik |

| 18:00.59 | slonopotamus | i c |
| 18:01.01 | RST38h | ehehehe |
| 18:01.37 | javispedro | can see already the video instructing iphone developers to "ignore" the colors when porting their apps to maemo5. |
| 18:02.27 | slonopotamus | javispedro, can't you just patch xephyr? |
| 18:03.09 | javispedro | as i said previously I don't know the first thing about the "eye candy" system |
| 18:03.18 | javispedro | the bug may be either in cairo, clutter or xephyr |
| 18:04.34 | slonopotamus | so, try to output colors without using those three :) first directly to xephyr, then via cairo |
| 18:05.14 | javispedro | clutter+cairo go by hand. |
| 18:05.14 | javispedro | outputting to xephyr directly results in good colors. |
| 18:05.22 | javispedro | but I cannot discard xephyr since it may be a GL bug. |
| 18:05.31 | VDVsx | X-Fade, ping |
| 18:06.42 | javispedro | it runs Maemo on an ARM8 Processor there shouldnt be any lag [sigh] |

| 18:08.13 | lcuk | isnt it more technical to say they made x11 work with it? |
| 18:08.32 | javispedro | yes, much like compiz only using clutter instead of ogl directly. |

| 18:10.10 | javispedro | clutter is just what I'd call a scene library. it just renders things and does animations. |
| 18:10.58 | X-Fade | VDVsx: Hmm let me check, haven't seen that before. |
| 18:11.03 | javispedro | I don't which process is doing the compositing... |

| 18:11.26 | lcuk | VDVsx, sending glut through? |
| 18:11.34 | lcuk | i was just thinking clutter is like glut lol |
| 18:11.55 | lcuk | since both seem to do the window and event management aspects of gl |
| 18:12.10 | VDVsx | lcuk, it's a dep for some games ;) |
| 18:12.26 | javispedro | VDVsx, does freeglut work with ogles? |
| 18:12.34 | javispedro | someone here was asking for ogles GLU before. |
| 18:12.35 | VDVsx | lcuk, but is similar, you are right |
| 18:13.13 | VDVsx | javispedro, it builds with libgl, so should be compatible |

| 18:15.46 | VDVsx | it's in the repos at least |
| 18:16.27 | javispedro | I think I need more information about how gl will work on device... :S |

| 18:22.06 | javispedro | RST38h, there are some libraries out there (google says) |
| 18:22.33 | VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, but it depends on libgl, our discussion :) |
| 18:22.51 | javispedro | depends on libgl and it worked on N800? |
| 18:23.32 | VDVsx | supertux also depends on libgl, I think |
| 18:23.34 | X-Fade | GL is a difficult area as you need completely different libs on the device than on i386. |
| 18:23.39 | javispedro | /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 is "Mesa GL library" (software renderer!!!!) |
| 18:23.47 | qwerty12_N810 | javispedro: No, the sdlperl bindings do, but I didn't (well: couldn't) build them with GL for Diablo |

| 18:24.33 | javispedro | X-Fade, libgles2-dev |

| 18:25.45 | javispedro | x86 links with ogl, but armel links with ogles2. |
| 18:25.58 | javispedro | isn't it? |
| 18:26.02 | javispedro | but that means ogl is not on device |
| 18:26.04 | javispedro | . |
| 18:26.08 | X-Fade | Yeah. |
| 18:26.24 | X-Fade | In order to let clutter work on i386, you need to use opengl. |
| 18:26.25 | VDVsx | ehhehe |
| 18:26.43 | X-Fade | While there is no opengl on the device, but there is opengles. |
| 18:27.12 | VDVsx | well, we can always port iPhone games :P |
| 18:27.17 | X-Fade | Believe me, I have been working on this issue a while ago ;) |
| 18:27.18 | javispedro | I think the situation is |
| 18:27.37 | lcuk | VDVsx, you need the framework really |
| 18:27.38 | javispedro | on fremantle_x86 sdk, we have host accelerated libGL and sw rendered libGLES2 |
| 18:27.43 | lcuk | they arent even in the same ballpark coding wise |
| 18:27.47 | javispedro | on device, we have hw accelerated libGLES2. |
| 18:28.09 | X-Fade | Yeah, so if you want to do hardcore GL, you can only test on the device. |
| 18:28.26 | javispedro | by hardcore GL you mean sw rendered? |
| 18:28.34 | lcuk | did the beagle guys come up with anything |
| 18:28.40 | lcuk | or the pandora bunch |
| 18:28.57 | lcuk | arent they compatible chipsets |
| 18:29.06 | javispedro | yes.... |
| 18:29.06 | X-Fade | javispedro: No, if you want to code direct opengles2 for a game for example. |
| 18:29.17 | X-Fade | javispedro: You can't test that on your pc. |
| 18:29.27 | javispedro | X-Fade, a, but there's a Imagination OpenGL-ES2 emulation library+dev in fremantle x86 SDK. |
| 18:29.50 | X-Fade | Yeah, but how would you know if your hardware is as fast as the device. |
| 18:29.55 | X-Fade | Or faster/slower. |
| 18:29.55 | lcuk | javispedro, yes to compatible chiipsets, or yes, they have something |
| 18:29.57 | javispedro | well, but at least you can code :) |
| 18:30.07 | lcuk | you can code with a napkin |

| 21:31.56 | SpeedEvil | wine is not an emulator. |

| 21:32.11 | zerojayPC | No. |
| 21:32.13 | SpeedEvil | It's a compatibility layer which translates windows calls onto linux ones. |
| 21:32.34 | SpeedEvil | It does not emulate the program at all - the program runs natively. |
| 21:32.39 | zerojayPC | The N900 will have it's own maps app with free navigation already installed anyways. |

| 21:33.25 | ShadowJK | wine can't be "ported" to the ARM architechture. wine is not an emulator. What one might be able to do though, is run wine under qemu-userspace |
| 21:33.31 | jeremiah | OSM works like a charm on my N810 |
| 21:33.37 | zerojayPC | Supposed to be Nokia/Ovi Maps and told that it was free, so.. dunno. |

| 21:34.20 | ShadowJK | I bet you get a year or two of free navigation with the N900 |
| 21:34.22 | aol_ | I hate Nokia for not providing Map API like Google does on Android |
| 21:34.30 | Captain_Picard | lol i doubt my marine naval chart would work good on maemo mapper :D |
| 21:34.32 | SpeedEvil | Including even the snowmobile track. |

| 21:35.37 | Captain_Picard | yes but is the ovi-maps free? |
| 21:36.04 | zerojayPC | I remember seeing that it's free... don't remember where though. |
| 21:36.08 | Captain_Picard | i dont like monthly fees .. |
| 21:36.14 | javispedro | Captain_Picard, maemo mapper can be used as a raster map application |
| 21:36.30 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, same pricing scheme as S60 |
| 21:36.36 | GAN8001 | Yearly, quarterly or monthly. |
| 21:36.36 | aol_ | probably comes with a year free regional subscription for navigation |
| 21:36.45 | GAN8001 | Routing costs money |
| 21:36.48 | Captain_Picard | GAN8001: yeh thats why im not intrested |
| 21:36.49 | GAN8001 | Everything else is free. |
| 21:36.58 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, then use Maemo Mapper and call it a day. |
| 21:37.11 | aol_ | I love to use Nokia Maps on my S60 phones... just not interested in the routing |
| 21:37.13 | Captain_Picard | id rather get a program that i can pay once get full map be happy with it |
| 21:37.23 | GAN8001 | shrugs. |
| 21:37.29 | doc|home | there's bound to be something tha tuses openstreet maps |
| 21:37.31 | GAN8001 | Nokia provides you with free updates. |
| 21:37.32 | doc|home | *that uses |
| 21:37.36 | qwerty12_N810 | Is gnuite doing a Fremantle build of Maemo Mapper? |
| 21:37.43 | GAN8001 | Whereas most one-time-fee devices go out of date rather rapidly. |
| 21:37.56 | ShadowJK | doc|home, maemomapper uses osm ;) |
| 21:38.11 | doc|home | ShadowJK: can you do routing with it? |
| 21:38.11 | Captain_Picard | lol i been happy with and old tomtom with old maps for a long time |
| 21:38.18 | Captain_Picard | sadly it broke now |

| 21:38.39 | ShadowJK | (internet required) |
| 21:38.39 | VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, via quimgil |
| 21:38.50 | qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: couldn't care less, I don't follow twitter :) |
| 21:38.55 | doc|home | ShadowJK: :/ would like something without a net connection but better than nothing |
| 21:39.24 | Captain_Picard | well, tell me if anyone of you knows another navi program for maemo |
| 21:39.26 | VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, ok, you will miss the big news :P |
| 21:39.41 | ShadowJK | It's much less of a limitation now that N900 will have its own gsm+3g :) |
| 21:39.56 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, Ovi Maps is only about $70 a year |
| 21:40.02 | qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: Nah, I'll make you tell me the news ;) |

| 21:40.23 | ShadowJK | I guess :) |
| 21:40.52 | VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, payment in beers ? we have a deal ;) |
| 21:41.48 | Captain_Picard | GAN8001: bought that tomtom for about 120 dollars included the device + 1 year updates |
| 21:41.51 | qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: I may be able to stretch to a Coke can or two ;) |
| 21:42.06 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, don't know what to tell you, then. |
| 21:42.09 | GAN8001 | Buy another TomTom. |
| 21:42.25 | Captain_Picard | GAN8001: doesnt sound very good, i pay 600 euros for device i hafto pay 70 dollars a year ? |
| 21:42.44 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, again, I don't know what to tell you. |
| 21:42.48 | GAN8001 | Things cost money. |
| 21:42.50 | doc|home | Captain_Picard: then don't pay it |
| 21:42.54 | doc|home | Captain_Picard: you're not forced to |
| 21:42.56 | GAN8001 | If you want free, then you want Maemo Mapper. |
| 21:43.06 | zerojayPC | Captain_Picard: I guess you don't expect to pay for a phone plan either? :) |
| 21:43.09 | SpeedEvil | GAN8001: some things cost money. |
| 21:43.22 | Captain_Picard | im not here to talk about that, im just curious about possibilities to use other navigation software |
| 21:43.28 | VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, coke is bad for my health, doctor told me to drink beer instead ;) |
| 21:43.33 | GAN8001 | Maemo Mapper or Ovi Maps. |
| 21:43.42 | GAN8001 | Each has their own pros and cons. |
| 21:43.53 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, it'll probably come with 30 days free. |
| 21:43.59 | GAN8001 | So try the trial, then decide. |
| 21:44.01 | qwerty12_N810 | VDVsx: Alcopop or nothing |
| 21:44.39 | Captain_Picard | i hope some firm is going to make a maemo navigator with no montly fees |
| 21:45.20 | Captain_Picard | the device itself is perfect |
| 21:45.22 | VDVsx | qwerty12_N810, too strong for me :P |

| 21:47.00 | qwerty12_N810 | wouldn't pay a monthly fee to use navigation, but he has no problem with an exorbitant fee for a lifetime license. But, fuck it, I don't even have a car |
| 21:47.21 | jeremiah | That is illogical, lardman |
| 21:47.25 | Captain_Picard | sad that all good navigation software are not open source |
| 21:47.25 | lcuk | i do not pay monthly for navigation. i pay for the time i need it. |
| 21:47.34 | lardman | I reckon a monthly fee to use, as long as it's enabled month my month when you need it |
| 21:47.34 | lcuk | 90% of time we drive on same roads |
| 21:47.42 | lcuk | that we dont need routing |
| 21:47.48 | lardman | jeremiah: that;s captain to you ;) |
| 21:47.56 | lcuk | the rest of the time, we purchase a weekly/monlthy ticket |
| 21:48.18 | lardman | or even daily would be fine by me |
| 21:48.28 | lcuk | Captain_Picard, the software is complex. i do not mind paying smart people for good code. |
| 21:48.31 | lardman | normally it's one day and I need to go somewhere, or get past an accident, etc |
| 21:48.35 | wazd | Monthly fee for navigation is absolutely ridiculous |
| 21:48.53 | wazd | I bought software, I use it |
| 21:49.12 | lardman | hmm, I don't need navigation hints most of the time though |
| 21:49.15 | Captain_Picard | wazd: yeh thats my point |
| 21:49.18 | qwerty12_N810 | wazd: Indeed. Do ma |
| 21:49.18 | lardman | so it's wasted money |
| 21:49.28 | Captain_Picard | waste of money to use ovi maps |
| 21:49.34 | qwerty12_N810 | *Do map updates come as part of the monthly fee? |
| 21:49.38 | wazd | That's just greedy bastard's business model |
| 21:49.39 | lardman | do they charge? Did I miss that? |
| 21:49.44 | Captain_Picard | sure, but who cares of map updates |
| 21:49.53 | ShadowJK | Realistically though, if it comes with 2 year's free navigation, you'll have bought a new device with free navigation by the time it runs out ;P |
| 21:49.55 | lardman | I do for roads |
| 21:49.56 | Captain_Picard | the road network doesnt change that much |
| 21:49.57 | wazd | If I want updated map - I buy updated map |
| 21:49.57 | lcuk | you do you pillock when you rely on it |
| 21:50.08 | Captain_Picard | wazd: *word* |
| 21:50.15 | qwerty12_N810 | Hmm, that's not so bad, then... |
| 21:50.17 | lcuk | wazd - do what i do then |
| 21:50.18 | lardman | oi, enough of the pregnant fish |
| 21:50.25 | lcuk | keep a large single map of where you need to be |
| 21:50.33 | wazd | I don't use any server or cell station or whatever to use GPS, who the fuck I'm paying to |
| 21:50.38 | lcuk | i have done it for each country ive visited so far |
| 21:51.07 | lardman | can someone refresh me, what's the price? |
| 21:51.17 | lcuk | i think it was based on old model lol |
| 21:51.21 | lcuk | i dont think anyone knows |
| 21:51.24 | wazd | I just don't understand, for what companies are charging users |
| 21:51.25 | ShadowJK | lardman, of? |
| 21:51.25 | Captain_Picard | yeh the ovi-maps buisness model is flawed |
| 21:51.33 | lardman | Ovi-maps |
| 21:51.40 | Captain_Picard | they should tell people its based on monthly fees |
| 21:51.43 | ShadowJK | dunno, I'm still on my free years :) |
| 21:51.45 | Captain_Picard | on the mameo n900 site |
| 21:51.59 | ShadowJK | (on my E75's maps) |
| 21:52.01 | lardman | ShadowJK: ah, so some free ones come with the phone then? |
| 21:52.13 | qwerty12_N810 | Wayfinder was a shithole though, I pity anyone who paid monthly for that |
| 21:52.14 | lardman | ShadowJK: or you pay for new maps? |
| 21:52.20 | SpeedEvil | wazd: the maps |
| 21:52.23 | Captain_Picard | lots of my friends are thinking of buying n900 also and belive they get free navigation software with it |
| 21:52.29 | ShadowJK | lardman, on nokia's Symbian high-end phones, you get something like a year of free navigation |
| 21:52.37 | SpeedEvil | wazd: maps cost to generate and license. |
| 21:52.41 | lardman | and after that, what's the cost? |
| 21:52.48 | ShadowJK | the year starts from the first time you use it for routing |
| 21:52.54 | ShadowJK | lardman, hm, not sure |
| 21:52.57 | ShadowJK | I'll check on my older phone |
| 21:52.58 | lardman | np |
| 21:53.24 | lardman | I bought Wayfinder lifetime licence for £30 |
| 21:53.25 | ShadowJK | it has Maps 2.0.. it isn't exactly equivalent to ovimaps/3.0 |
| 21:53.26 | mikkov_ | some of the "navigator" models have lifetime licence |
| 21:53.29 | javispedro | http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/prices_and_coverage/pricing-tables-navigable |
| 21:53.33 | wazd | SpeedEvil: I buy the map |
| 21:53.34 | Captain_Picard | maps costs to generate and license they can still be sold with a one time payment |
| 21:53.39 | lardman | it works ok, bit slow and old maps and I'd hate to use it one handed |
| 21:53.39 | lcuk | wazd, osm |
| 21:53.44 | wazd | SpeedEvil: then I use it as much as I want |
| 21:53.44 | SpeedEvil | wazd: in some cases you buy the map. |
| 21:53.53 | lcuk | dont stop being a penny pincher. use the maps there for us |
| 21:53.53 | lardman | lcuk: not the best quality |
| 21:53.57 | SpeedEvil | wazd: In some cases you buy the rights to use the map for a given period. |
| 21:54.04 | lcuk | lardman, thats our fault then |
| 21:54.11 | lardman | yeah |
| 21:54.11 | lcuk | osm2go will be available for n900 |
| 21:54.13 | lcuk | we can help |
| 21:54.24 | SpeedEvil | wazd: the less rights you have to use the map data - the cheaper it is for nokia or whoever to license. |
| 21:54.26 | lcuk | improve your local map |
| 21:54.30 | lcuk | so wazd can have his dream |
| 21:54.43 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: If only it had a magnetometer. |
| 21:54.44 | lcuk | wazd |
| 21:54.45 | lardman | Well Bath is already really good, no thanks to me, but I don';t need a map here either! |
| 21:55.02 | lcuk | if we can find decent routing then its possible |
| 21:55.05 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: But even without that - the camera + GPS + enough screen to meaningfully do editing = win |
| 21:55.07 | qwerty12_N810 | Do OSM accept brothels as POIs? |
| 21:55.08 | lardman | SpeedEvil: to detect buried treasure? |
| 21:55.11 | lcuk | the algo is something i remember on amiga |
| 21:55.13 | SpeedEvil | qwerty12_N810: yes |
| 21:55.15 | lcuk | seeing map routing stuff there |
| 21:55.19 | qwerty12_N810 | *grin* |
| 21:55.21 | lcuk | it branches out from source to desk |
| 21:55.25 | lcuk | its a lovely thing to see |
| 21:55.32 | lcuk | to dest |
| 21:55.37 | lcuk | from both ends |
| 21:55.38 | SpeedEvil | lardman: stand in location known by GPS - pointed at a given direction - known by magnetometer + accel |
| 21:55.47 | lardman | compass? |
| 21:56.08 | SpeedEvil | lardman: take pic of streetsign - automatically OCRd - and ready to add to the street |
| 21:56.19 | lardman | that would be good |

| 21:58.43 | lardman | editting the maps manually puts me off |
| 21:59.04 | lcuk | what kind of editing |
| 21:59.07 | lcuk | we need routes |
| 21:59.09 | lcuk | and paths |
| 21:59.11 | lcuk | and tracks |
| 21:59.12 | SpeedEvil | lardman: as an aside - I'm currently trying to design a pod that magnetically clamps to a car - and takes panos at 5m intervals for my local town. 500G or so |
| 21:59.17 | lardman | javispedro: wow, for the whole of Europe too. Not too bad imo |
| 21:59.19 | lcuk | and a copilot to poke at road types |
| 21:59.31 | lcuk | nothing more complex really |
| 21:59.36 | lcuk | gps gives us speeds |
| 21:59.38 | javispedro | well, being used to the garmin 190⬠ripoff, sounds good. |
| 21:59.53 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: POIs, streetsigns |
| 21:59.54 | lcuk | copilot says "a" "b" "dc" "m" |
| 21:59.58 | lcuk | TMI |
| 22:00.00 | javispedro | (that was long ago btw, dunno what their current prices are) |
| 22:00.04 | lcuk | too dificult to put in on the go |
| 22:00.07 | lcuk | quick, light simple |
| 22:00.11 | GAN8001 | lol |
| 22:00.12 | lcuk | crest can be filled in later |
| 22:00.20 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, dunno where you live, but roads change all of the time here. |
| 22:00.21 | lardman | lcuk: yeah, it's needing either the copilot, or to edit the tracks after the fact that is time consuming. If the signs could be deciphered (or even just displayed to remind you) that would be far easier |
| 22:00.31 | lcuk | fuck signs |
| 22:00.35 | lcuk | we need mic input |
| 22:00.35 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: it's actually quite possible to do. Especially on bike. |
| 22:00.40 | lcuk | "dual carriageway" |

| 22:01.20 | lardman | well just saying that at my normal cruising speed gives a circle of uncertainty of 200m ;) |
| 22:01.28 | MaceN8x0 | 1 more month til n900 is sold out |
| 22:01.30 | lcuk | heh |
| 22:01.30 | javispedro | hmmm... yummy useless but cool 3d buildings. |
| 22:01.32 | MaceN8x0 | haha |
| 22:01.40 | lcuk | lol |
| 22:01.43 | lcuk | that can come after tho |
| 22:01.55 | lcuk | when someone plays sims and creates houses on plots |
| 22:01.57 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: the problem is you're missing the point. |
| 22:02.12 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: the signs are the hard part to get - not the easy part. |
| 22:02.23 | MaceN8x0 | how to put maemo 5 on iphone? |
| 22:02.27 | lcuk | why are you needing to get them |
| 22:02.30 | javispedro | MaceN8x0, virgins. |
| 22:02.32 | lcuk | i know the names of the roads |
| 22:02.37 | lcuk | or i can shout them out |
| 22:02.38 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: the driving round and getting a grid/... is easy. Without POIs and streetnames, and ... it's largely useless |
| 22:02.55 | MaceN8x0 | haha |
| 22:02.55 | SpeedEvil | There is audio functionality in JOSM |
| 22:03.03 | lardman | lcuk: true, fine for your area |
| 22:03.04 | lcuk | you have levels of information |
| 22:03.17 | MaceN8x0 | i have to run bootmenu again |
| 22:03.23 | lcuk | someone driving cannot give such minute details |
| 22:03.29 | lcuk | but someone can go over later |
| 22:03.39 | lardman | adding direction information and speed would be good (once if's finished) to allow better routing |
| 22:03.55 | lcuk | but the drivers course and heading and speed are important factors |
| 22:03.56 | SpeedEvil | Autoconverting from GPS traces also has problems. |
| 22:03.59 | MaceN8x0 | just to rm the gentoo entry |
| 22:04.02 | SpeedEvil | GPS traces aren't ideal. |
| 22:04.08 | lardman | reflections? |
| 22:04.08 | lcuk | same thing |
| 22:04.11 | lcuk | that is post processing |
| 22:04.16 | lcuk | by someone good at touching up |
| 22:04.25 | lardman | but again needs time |
| 22:04.31 | SpeedEvil | http://www.mauve.plus.com/josm.png |
| 22:04.36 | lardman | should ideally be automated, otherwise people won't bother |
| 22:04.37 | lcuk | if you force EVERYBODY to be good at every job they will do poorly |
| 22:04.39 | lardman | that's my reason anywa |
| 22:04.41 | lardman | y |
| 22:04.41 | SpeedEvil | This shows 20 or so traces along the top. |
| 22:04.52 | SpeedEvil | And one trace where I went round a new estate. |
| 22:05.00 | SpeedEvil | The pink line is one GPS - the white the other |
| 22:05.13 | SpeedEvil | The pink GPS was reporting good signal and low error |
| 22:05.45 | SpeedEvil | GPSs were next to each other |
| 22:05.46 | lcuk | cool |
| 22:06.02 | lardman | so the answer? Look at the reported error level, or just get lots of data and take the median? |
| 22:06.16 | lcuk | just keep building up runs whilst driving naturally |
| 22:06.17 | SpeedEvil | lardman: It depends. |
| 22:06.23 | lcuk | the pathways we humans take will emerge |
| 22:06.31 | lcuk | and random offs will vanish |
| 22:06.32 | SpeedEvil | lardman: a _LARGE_ fraction of germany has been mapped. |
| 22:06.44 | oli | btw, someone could update maemo mapper's map repo - google sat/street has changed a little |
| 22:06.57 | Captain_Picard | anyone know if there is somekind of software connecting maemo and pc? |
| 22:07.02 | SpeedEvil | lardman: For some reason germans like mapping. |
| 22:07.04 | lcuk | yeah ssh |
| 22:07.05 | Captain_Picard | lika symbian as pc suite |
| 22:07.10 | GAN8001 | PC Suite. . . . |
| 22:07.10 | ShadowJK | SpeedEvil, this looks a bit like when I've had tracking enabled in maemomapper, and the GPS has drawn lines when I've drive down a road on separate occasions :) |
| 22:07.13 | lardman | SpeedEvil: although exact positions are ideal, the mapping programs will need to take into account that other GPSes will not track the roads exactly, so it probably doesn't matter too much I guess |
| 22:07.14 | Captain_Picard | im just curious what nokia delivers |
| 22:07.42 | MaceN8x0 | wow that is a gay nick |
| 22:07.50 | ShadowJK | nobody sane uses PC suite, with anything :) |
| 22:07.51 | SpeedEvil | ShadowJK: yeah - it'll be seperated by 10m or so max. The above pic was to show that someitmes it _really_ does not follow the roads. |
| 22:07.51 | lardman | SpeedEvil: didn't one of the commercial providers donate their maps for Germany? |
| 22:07.58 | Captain_Picard | MaceN8x0: glad you like it |
| 22:08.01 | SpeedEvil | lardman: no - that was .nl |
| 22:08.02 | lcuk | SpeedEvil, your track has illuminated it for me |
| 22:08.15 | lcuk | im deffo gonna be recording tracks i make and playing :) |
| 22:08.15 | lardman | SpeedEvil: ah ok |
| 22:08.37 | lcuk | will find the ideal racing line home |
| 22:09.01 | *** join/#maemo hannesw_ (n=hannes@91-114-229-33.adsl.highway.telekom.at) |
| 22:09.07 | lcuk | heh |
| 22:09.13 | SpeedEvil | lardman: Germany seems to have been largely mapped in a couple of years. I'm unsure if this can be pushed elsewhere. A good app for phones could help. |
| 22:09.16 | lcuk | would be cool to have 2 GPSes on car :O |
| 22:09.21 | lcuk | :O:O:O |
| 22:09.24 | SpeedEvil | lardman: the tools are really quite rapidly improving. |
| 22:09.24 | Captain_Picard | how will the n900 show up if i plug it into the computer with usb? |
| 22:09.25 | lardman | really though, if I could setup a camera to even just play back images where I want on the track, I'd happily take part |
| 22:09.28 | lcuk | one at front and one at back :D |
| 22:09.30 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: I've gone out with 3 :) |
| 22:09.34 | MaceN8x0 | lcuk, why? |
| 22:09.39 | lardman | SpeedEvil: yes, I'll have to take a look |
| 22:09.44 | MaceN8x0 | just to have 2? |
| 22:10.08 | lcuk | to get better avarage position |
| 22:10.10 | javispedro | Captain_Picard, n810 shows up as mass storage class by default. |
| 22:10.17 | ShadowJK | Captain_Picard, the previous devices showed up as mass-storage device. Also can show up as ethernet device |
| 22:10.34 | MaceN8x0 | lcuk, haha |
| 22:10.36 | SpeedEvil | lardman: you can with a normal camera - you take a pic of the GPS to get a time sync. - any pics you then take show up automatically geotagged in the editors. |
| 22:10.44 | MaceN8x0 | you would a better positioning system |
| 22:10.46 | GAN8001 | Captain_Picard, PC Suite should support tethering, too. |
| 22:11.00 | lardman | SpeedEvil: not really what I want to be doing while driving along at 70mph though |
| 22:11.00 | MaceN8x0 | not two gpses |
| 22:11.04 | MaceN8x0 | ;) |
| 22:11.06 | SpeedEvil | lardman: true. |
| 22:11.31 | lardman | esp as we get fined and points for using phones or eating chocolate these days |
| 22:11.40 | SpeedEvil | lardman: though I've simply mounted a camera with a GPS mount pointed through the window - which worked well - with shutter button pressed down |
| 22:11.44 | MaceN8x0 | lardman, have you tried the carman stuff? |
| 22:12.00 | MaceN8x0 | it is pretty sweet with the obd2 cable |
| 22:12.01 | SpeedEvil | lardman: 1024*768 pics at 1fps or so worked well |
| 22:12.05 | lardman | MaceN8x0: no, I assumed it was only OBD2 stuff |
| 22:12.15 | MaceN8x0 | does maps too |
| 22:12.27 | lardman | MaceN8x0: my connector is between my knees, so not ideal for driving :) |
| 22:12.28 | MaceN8x0 | and has pidgen support for tracking friends |
| 22:12.34 | lardman | that's cool |
| 22:12.50 | qwerty12_N810 | lardman: I won't ask |
| 22:12.50 | MaceN8x0 | it's bt |
| 22:13.02 | MaceN8x0 | just run it away under the dasg |
| 22:13.05 | MaceN8x0 | dash |
| 22:13.11 | MaceN8x0 | the cable |
| 22:13.14 | aol_ | jesus, the Maemo SDK is frustrating to install 1st time :( |
| 22:13.47 | pillar | aol yep, I agree |
| 22:13.55 | aol_ | so many of the instructions dont work as they're supposed to, and always have to find out what's wrong |
| 22:14.06 | MaceN8x0 | lardman, it is nice |
| 22:14.19 | MaceN8x0 | especially if you have friends with it |
| 22:14.29 | MaceN8x0 | reminds me of need for speed |
| 22:14.30 | MaceN8x0 | heh |
| 22:14.43 | lardman | hmm, the obd2 thingies were expensive last time I looked, but I was tempted |
| 22:14.47 | aol_ | I hope I get my Hildon UI visible soon |
| 22:14.53 | MaceN8x0 | 169$ |
| 22:15.03 | MaceN8x0 | probably less |
| 22:15.06 | lardman | expensive |
| 22:15.06 | MaceN8x0 | thats ccheap |
| 22:15.11 | lardman | hmm |
| 22:15.16 | javispedro | hmm... wormux is still using the install-to-internal-card thing. |
| 22:15.35 | aol_ | the OBD2 are nowadays 50 euros |
| 22:15.39 | pillar | aol I installed the image and was able to get it working, but unsure of how to add qt-support |
| 22:16.42 | lardman | not so bad then, need to check on that port position. Google here I come |
| 22:17.13 | mikkov_ | javispedro: it is. If you have some real info of the filesystem, please share :) |
| 22:17.34 | javispedro | mikkov_, nope, I was trying to steal some from your source ;) |
| 22:17.47 | qwerty12_N810 | mikkov_: Are you using maemo-confirm-text? :) |
| 22:17.58 | javispedro | he's not |
| 22:18.05 | mikkov_ | qwerty12_N810: no questions asked |
| 22:18.15 | qwerty12_N810 | Ah, thanks |
| 22:18.40 | qwerty12_N810 | I just saw how maemo-confirm-text is done in Fremantle and had a WTF moment |
| 22:18.40 | mikkov_ | it will fail to install if mmc is not usable |
| 22:18.55 | qwerty12_N810 | I should push Zenity... |
| 22:19.01 | javispedro | already there |
| 22:19.19 | javispedro | but i've read the nokia guidelines and they now recommend a "no questions asked" policy too |
| 22:19.29 | javispedro | s/nokia// |
| 22:20.07 | qwerty12_N810 | javispedro: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/pool/fremantle/free/z/zenity/ doesn't exist |
| 22:20.25 | qwerty12_N810 | But you make a fair point with the "no questions asked" policy |
| 22:20.33 | javispedro | lol, you are right, i am in the diablo sdk |
| 22:20.42 | javispedro | :P thanks for noticing |
| 22:20.56 | javispedro | damn me used to the prompt and not paying attention to it ;) |
| 22:22.10 | javispedro | well, for now i will just install to rootfs. |
| 22:22.40 | qwerty12_N810 | I'm just installing to /usr/share/ as always... if the N900 has a gig of space for applications, like it says in the specs, then I don't see how it's a problem. |
| 22:22.43 | lardman | hmm, not so bad, under the ashtray so Google tells me |
| 22:23.00 | mikkov_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 22:23.45 | mikkov_ | qwerty12_N810: or where, exactly? |
| 22:24.28 | qwerty12_N810 | Hmm, I'm misreading the specs |
| 22:24.58 | mikkov_ | there's 768MB NAND memory, but i don't know how it's partitioned |
| 22:25.28 | javispedro | well, it may be a problem for a 50 MiB _compressed_ file (wormux-data hint hint ;) ) |
| 22:25.41 | qwerty12_N810 | I don't get how saving to /home/user can be fine :) |
| 22:26.36 | javispedro | yeah, the removed the MyDocs/.games dir didnt'they? |
| 22:26.40 | javispedro | it's not on the sdk |
| 22:26.56 | lardman | aol_: still ~£100 for the UK |

| 22:28.41 | javispedro | bah, hidden folders again. |
| 22:28.48 | aol_ | lardman: yeah OBDKey is expensive |
| 22:28.52 | qwerty12_N810 | javispedro: Didn't notice come think of it, but when I told Transmission to save to /home/user/MyDocs, qgil said he still kept getting "Permission denied" errors, but "/home/user/Downloads" (Transmission's default) worked fine. I'm confused because, with the exception of the Terminal, Diablo tried to hide /home/user |
| 22:29.25 | mikkov_ | qwerty12_N810: that I didn't understant too |
| 22:29.26 | javispedro | qwerty12_N810, that may be because MyDocs is on FAT32 |
| 22:29.28 | lardman | aol_: all the recommended ones come out about the same though |
| 22:30.04 | lardman | aol_: I can't justify that sort of money for something that does little more than the GPS (I don;t need the technical info thankfully, touch wood!) |
| 22:30.18 | javispedro | hm.. the SDK continues to hide /home/user |
| 22:30.33 | qwerty12_N810 | Maybe we should interrogate Andre through a series of bugs ;) |
| 22:31.06 | aol_ | lardman: knockoffs are 20-50£ in ebay.co.uk |
| 22:31.19 | andre__ | qwerty12_N810, hell yesh! |
| 22:31.19 | mikkov_ | filesystem structure would be pretty important to know :) |
| 22:31.39 | lardman | aol_: oh right, well interesting, but will add it to the end of my todo list :) |
| 22:31.44 | qwerty12_N810 | Hehe, evening andre__ :) |
| 22:31.58 | aol_ | lardman: yeah I guess carman OBD2 is just for serious car geeks :) |

| 22:35.59 | aol_ | not really the update rate so much |
| 22:36.08 | aol_ | 5 Hz would be enough if it was accurate :) |
| 22:36.11 | pperrn | hi. Need some help here. I was developing on diablo sometime ago, and try to improve the code that i did last time, recently. I reflashed my n810 to the latest diablo image, and try to install my application. It installs fine (using dpkg -i), and it runs the first time. But when i reinstall it the second time, the application does not seem to run anymore. Am I missing sth here? Could anyone help me? |
| 22:36.20 | lardman | aol_: well 5Hz is more than standard |
| 22:36.45 | aol_ | lardman: Qstarz BT-Q818X is really amazing cheap GPS, but if you want to go next level, expect to pay 500-1000$ |
| 22:37.05 | lardman | yes I've seen some reasonably cheap ones with 5Hz now, all good :) |
| 22:37.10 | aol_ | lardman: I got the whole range on my test devices :) |
| 22:37.40 | aol_ | lardman: this one I mentioned is around £60... it has the MTK-II chipset |
| 22:37.52 | aol_ | normally they are the older MTK chipset which is not as good |
| 22:38.24 | lardman | what do you do? |
| 22:38.47 | aol_ | lardman: www.racechrono.com |
| 22:39.02 | lardman | ah, now I see the link :) |
