| 00:31.54 | Mousey | HEY! |
| 00:32.11 | Mousey | i just had an idea |
| 00:32.19 | Mousey | what about putting Palm's WebOS on an n8x0?? it's basically an ARM based linux distro |
| 00:33.12 | RST38h | what about it? |
| 00:33.37 | Mousey | or maybe Maemo on a pre! |

| 00:34.04 | Mousey | what fun mess-with-the-manufacturer's-intentions hacks those would be! |
| 00:34.07 | Mousey | i'd make SLASHDOT! |
| 00:34.15 | Mousey | sets his sights so high |
| 00:35.33 | RST38h | No problem, start on it tonight |
| 00:35.39 | ShadowJK | palm isn't exactly letting you have webos |
| 00:36.04 | Mousey | ShadowJK: well the degree to which they lemme hack the phone is pretty impressive tho |
| 00:36.11 | Mousey | Luna is a bit of a closed thingy tho.. |
| 00:40.50 | RST38h | oh, that n900 vs samsung comparison shit has hit the real fan now |
| 00:41.16 | Mousey | lol, like samsung runs a linux distro on their tablet |
| 00:41.18 | Mousey | *ahem* |
| 00:41.21 | Mousey | i guess it's a phone now |
| 00:41.21 | Mousey | nm |
| 00:41.33 | RST38h | reread the above statement and figured that "fan" could be interpreted in two ways |
| 00:43.26 | zerojay | RST38h: Has it? How so? |
| 00:45.17 | zerojay | I wasn't really following that whole thing. |
| 00:46.59 | RST38h | zerojay: Well, Murtazin went to a corporate sponsored trip to Korea, was shown Secret Korean Chocolate Factories, came back impressed and declared that Samsung will overtake Nokia real soon now, and that the upcoming Samsung device (2011) is much better than n900 |
| 00:47.30 | RST38h | zerojay: That, of course, royally pissed ~70% of t.m.o and made Quim/Peter cringe. |
| 00:48.55 | zerojay | Yeah, I saw all the spears being thrown his way. |
| 00:49.29 | zerojay | Is that the extent of "shit has hit the real fan now", or are you refering to something new that's happened? |
| 00:50.02 | RST38h | more or less this |
| 00:50.12 | RST38h | look at the number and tone of comments... |
| 00:50.33 | zerojay | I have to say I was surprised to see even Tim going after him, lol. |
| 00:50.48 | ShadowJK | srsly, why compare 2009 device with 2011 device? |
| 00:51.42 | RST38h | he is a journo |
| 00:52.07 | RST38h | What the hell do you want from him? Journos are often like that |
| 00:52.26 | RST38h | zerojay: Tim and Qole are acting like true wikipedians! =) |
| 00:52.31 | zerojay | lol |
| 00:53.16 | zerojay | Tim's not usually the kind of guy that snaps at that sort of thing though, so it's a surprise... for me anyways. |

| 06:37.37 | johnx | aSIMULAter, just skimmed through the hildon 2.2 style guide: that is going to be massively helpful to a lot of people I think |
| 06:37.42 | RST38h | aSIMULAtor: Move the confirmation/etc buttons away so that they do not waste space |
| 06:37.57 | johnx | "away"? |
| 06:38.12 | RST38h | well, you can put them on top or on the bottom |
| 06:38.28 | RST38h | on top (as tabs) is actually a good idea |

| 06:40.15 | johnx | use your right thumb to accept |
| 06:40.31 | johnx | the one's in mer seem nice |
| 06:40.37 | RST38h | aSIMULAtor: You only have that much screen estate (and it actually depends on the physical screen size rather than resolution) |
| 06:41.11 | RST38h | aSIMULAtor: Wasting it by having a separate, mostly empty column for buttons is a crime. |
| 06:41.46 | johnx | they have way more horizontal to waste than vertical |
| 06:41.56 | RST38h | johnx: True, BUT |
| 06:42.06 | aSIMULAtor | well the right hand side where these confirmation buttons are do not scroll but the area to the left does |
| 06:42.06 | johnx | and picture the situation on maemo4 where they have dialogs that are 75% of the screen wide with buttons at the bottom |
| 06:42.10 | aSIMULAtor | as johnx said |
| 06:42.11 | johnx | now *that's* a waste |
| 06:42.28 | RST38h | johnx: Your buttons are normally elongated. So, by placing them into a horizontal container, you are wasting less space |
| 06:42.57 | johnx | ok, you need to understand the *value* of the space you're wasting |
| 06:43.04 | RST38h | Now, if Fremantle confirmation buttons had VERTICAL text rather than horizontal, then the current layout would make sense |
| 06:43.31 | johnx | heh, would be nice to have people use just an icon on buttons actually |
| 06:43.37 | RST38h | johnx: A config dialog can well take the whole screen, so ALL that space has more or less equal value |
| 06:44.00 | RST38h | johnx: Although if it were a file request dialog, the space would have different value |
| 06:44.21 | johnx | RST38h, I bet the nokia line is "those ugly, massive config screens should be redesigned" |

| 07:34.43 | johnx | and the "distance" between ubuntu/debian and maemo is a lot less than the distance between maemo and just about anything else |
| 07:36.07 | Jason404 | so is Andoid just a desktop environment, like kde or gnome? |

| 08:00.38 | Jason404 | oh |
| 08:00.38 | Stskeeps | they crash just like linux systems do when you |

| 08:02.50 | Jason404 | i expect battery will not last longer than a day if you are using it much |
| 08:02.57 | johnx | say whatever else you want about Nokia and Linux, but they *know* what they're up to about power management |
| 08:03.10 | johnx | wasn't necessarily a response to you :) |
| 08:04.18 | johnx | you can idle on wifi mixed with moderate usage and you'll have no problems getting through the day |
| 08:04.35 | Corsac | especially if the wifi support power management |
| 08:04.46 | johnx | right, that's the biggest thing |
| 08:04.56 | johnx | and they'll stay tethered with bluetooth for a good long time too |
| 08:05.01 | Jason404 | what do you mean? the hardware is fixed? |
| 08:05.20 | Jason404 | is it quick and easy to turn the wifi and bt radios off? |

| 08:06.05 | Jason404 | what did corsace mean about power management. is it not known if the N900 has it? |
| 08:06.30 | pupnik | heh i never used thayt |
| 08:06.34 | johnx | Jason404, nah. the battery life on wifi is determined by whether your *router* supports the power management modes |
| 08:06.34 | SpeedEvil | wifi power managment on the router |
| 08:06.40 | SpeedEvil | that the wifi is connected to. |
| 08:06.55 | Jason404 | ic |
| 08:06.56 | SpeedEvil | It's a mode where the router queues packets for you for a few hundred milliseconds at a time |
| 08:07.05 | SpeedEvil | then delivers them to you when you poll |
| 08:07.28 | Jason404 | oh right, I have always wondered what that setting did |
| 08:07.28 | pupnik | cool |
| 08:07.28 | SpeedEvil | I tried to find out the limits of that - I want to set it to 120s |
| 08:07.39 | SpeedEvil | but I couldn't get through the wifi spec I downloaded |
| 08:07.55 | pupnik | is that a recent feature? PM? |
| 08:08.12 | johnx | SpeedEvil, it gets set it in mer ... somehow... might be able to ask Stskeeps about it |
| 08:08.13 | SpeedEvil | several years old |
| 08:08.24 | pupnik | or do normal 802.11g . hmm |
| 08:08.25 | Jason404 | I will be using the wifi at cafes and bars, etc. a lot of the time, so I will have no control over the power management there |
| 08:08.46 | pupnik | you can find electric there |
| 08:08.56 | Jason404 | so, would I ever find myself needing to carry the recharger around with me? |
| 08:08.56 | pupnik | i have a mini nokia charger for org |
| 08:08.59 | pupnik | otg |
| 08:09.00 | SpeedEvil | johnx: I was wondering about it for suspend to RAM for 115/120 seconds - for a laptop but remaining connected |
| 08:09.03 | johnx | most *decent* APs support it per default |
| 08:09.10 | SpeedEvil | decent recent |
| 08:09.20 | SpeedEvil | If it's >3? years old - then no |
| 08:09.41 | johnx | and then there's the ones that say they support it and crash horribly when the n800 really exercises it |
| 08:10.03 | johnx | Jason404, depends on usage |
| 08:10.10 | Jason404 | ic |
| 08:10.13 | pupnik | oh, bright backlight + torrent download will chew up a batt a bit faster |
| 08:10.27 | Jason404 | is there a flash on the camera on the N900? |

| 08:12.21 | Jason404 | especially for MSN messenger and Skype stuff |
| 08:12.25 | johnx | DSP should suck less power than the CPU, but we don't know how much the GPU uses... |
| 08:12.35 | johnx | Jason404, you won't be using it as a cell phone? |
| 08:12.51 | johnx | Woolly, I'm booting sd on n800. is it a general question? or hardware specific? |
| 08:13.07 | lardman | johnx: less per unit output, but if the DSP is on the ARM must be too |
| 08:13.16 | Jason404 | johnx, yes I will be, but I do not talk on the phone for long. |
| 08:13.38 | johnx | Jason404, what I'm getting at is that the cell radio alone will use less power than cell+wifi probably |
| 08:13.44 | Woolly | I'm not sure as of yet. My tablet crashed when I was doing some hildon stuff, then when I did a hard reset, I can no longer boot to uSD, I get a "Failed to boot from mmc12" error |
| 08:14.02 | SpeedEvil | cell radio is _very_ optimised for power typically |
| 08:14.03 | johnx | Woolly, did you run fsck on the fs on that card? |
| 08:14.25 | Woolly | not yet, I cant even get it to mount from the internal OS |

| 08:14.55 | johnx | and just not mount? |
| 08:15.00 | johnx | or does it not show up at all? |
| 08:15.13 | Woolly | it's not in the file manager nope |
| 08:15.17 | johnx | can PCs see it in a card reader? |

| 08:27.21 | Stskeeps | n800/n810 was usb 2.0 right? |
| 08:27.30 | johnx | STiAT, there wasn't a firm decision on whether or not maemo5 would be on the n8x0 until ~6 months ago |

| 08:29.41 | Jason404 | they are not the ones that make the decision though. the marketing suits do that stuff |

| 08:32.45 | johnx | SpeedEvil, because it needs to run on linux? |
| 08:32.57 | SpeedEvil | johnx: I mean - if nokia were to choose to |
| 08:33.11 | johnx | STiAT, uh, ok sure, but user interface is: and the n900 has the guts to run maemo5. the n97 doesn't |
| 08:33.31 | johnx | SpeedEvil, sure, they could port linux to it and run maemo |
| 08:33.33 | STiAT | johnx: the only thing i could hope is that the n900 doesn't lag as much as the n97 :p |
| 08:33.39 | Jason404 | SpeedEvil: N900 has more powerful processor |
| 08:33.44 | SpeedEvil | ah |
| 08:33.45 | STiAT | johnx: a friend of mine has the n97, and it deserves it's reputation |
| 08:34.00 | johnx | STiAT, Cortex-A8 vs an ARM11 |
| 08:34.16 | johnx | it's a whole generational difference |
| 08:34.25 | Razumihin | I think the real reason is the gpu not the cpu |
| 08:34.35 | johnx | other phones with the cortex-a8: iphone 3GS, palm pre |
| 08:34.52 | johnx | and yeah, the pvr sgx helps *a lot* for that cool compositing |
| 08:34.57 | Razumihin | You could in theory run maemo 5 on ARM11 if it wouldn't rely on so many opengl effects |
| 08:35.18 | STiAT | johnx: doesn't tell too much, depends on the implementation as well, in example of rotating the phone (N97 -> wait for 3-5 seconds) |
| 08:35.20 | johnx | Razumihin, or you could take out the part that needed compositing, and replace it with a non-compositing WM |

| 08:35.51 | Razumihin | johnx: You could switch the ui to mer or something yes. |
| 08:36.05 | johnx | STiAT, what do you want me to say? there's no way to compare the n97 and the n900 in any way that makes sense |
| 08:36.21 | Razumihin | But you wouldn't be able to run it on n97 anyway. |
| 08:36.44 | Razumihin | And n97 is a decent phone, i'm pretty happy with it. |
| 08:36.45 | STiAT | johnx: there is a way, end user experience, where the N97 is incredibly bad. Let's hope the N900 does better :D |
| 08:36.54 | STiAT | johnx: but as long as they will release Qt for the N900 / Maemo 5 i'll very likely have it :p |
| 08:37.24 | X-Fade | STiAT: qt is already there. |
| 08:37.25 | Razumihin | The user experience on n97 is pretty ok. Better than on android imo. |
| 08:37.26 | johnx | STiAT, I don't really have any doubts about either of those statements :) |
| 08:37.32 | johnx | Razumihin, mer is/will be fremantle/maemo5 without the compositing WM (and it might have comopositing on devices that have the guts for it) |
| 08:38.53 | Jason404 | this N900 looks like it pisses all over the iPhone, but iPhone users would never get it, I feel. It really is a geeks phone. It does not look as nice either |
| 08:38.59 | florian | good morning |
| 08:39.27 | johnx | dunno. I like the look of the n900 keyboard, over the iphone keyboard :> |
| 08:39.38 | johnx | but yeah, it's a "power user" device |

| 08:54.55 | johnx | SpeedEvil, it aims to implement the backend stuff, but apps would need a new UI made |
| 08:55.19 | johnx | if the dev keeps things nicely separate it's an issue of writing a new UI instead of rewriting the whole app |

| 10:07.40 | lardman | if a C fn returns a char *, I understand that SWIG will turn that into a Python string for me, but does it free the array after it's done that? |
| 10:09.58 | lcuk | lardman, c functions generally only return char * from preallocated or static content |
| 10:10.29 | lcuk | in most senses its usual and expected to pass in a * and a length i believe |
| 10:10.47 | lardman | yeah I know, just trying to work out how to pass some data around |
| 10:10.56 | lardman | hmm |
| 10:11.20 | lcuk | swig might have a way to know and identify the return allocation type |
| 10:11.39 | lcuk | ie result from strdup(in); would need managing and freeing later on down the line |
| 10:11.47 | lcuk | exactly as if it was malloc(size) |
| 10:12.12 | lardman | http://www.swig.org/Doc1.3/Python.html#Python_nn49 |

| 10:13.07 | lupine_85 | SWIG is pretty awesome -when it works. I haven't used it much though |
| 10:13.11 | lardman | but as strings are immutable, that one must presumably be created in the C fn |
| 10:13.22 | khiraly_mc | do somebody know that if n900 comes with "tainted" kernel? Im specifically interested if the 3D, the GSM and 3G comes with opensource driver or not |
| 10:13.31 | lardman | yes it's tainted |
| 10:13.37 | lupine_85 | khiraly_mc, I don't know, but I'm certain, that it'll be tainted |
| 10:14.14 | alterego | I think the data modem is OSS, the display driver is not, |
| 10:14.42 | lupine_85 | not impossible to get OSS support for in time, probably |
| 10:14.52 | khiraly_mc | n900 has 3G and GSM too, no? So under data modem you understand the 3G chip as a whole? |
| 10:14.55 | lupine_85 | (if nouveau can do what they're doing...) |

| 10:20.55 | lardman | hmm |
| 10:20.58 | lardman | not sure about that then |
| 10:21.10 | lardman | I assumed that the shims would be open, but still linked against closed stuff |
| 10:23.34 | lardman | I think the question was a general one about everything being open though, not the exact split points? |
| 10:23.51 | Stskeeps | well, tainted kernel usually means non-gpl modules |

| 10:25.19 | suihkulokki | lardman: not true |

| 10:25.40 | lardman | Woolly: no, am writing my own as I've wrapped the batoo stuff |

| 10:26.37 | Woolly | ahh right |
| 10:27.00 | Woolly | I'm just confused as to how analyse row works |
| 10:27.17 | khiraly_mc | suihkulokki: could you be a bit more specific, if the gsm and the 3G and the 3D part is fully opensource or not? |
| 10:27.45 | lardman | Woolly: oh right, well you just pass it a single row of data as a char* |
| 10:28.03 | Woolly | and it returns a upc? |

| 10:29.52 | lardman | N8x0? |
| 10:29.52 | suihkulokki | khiraly_mc: the _kernel_ parts of both gsm/3g and 3d are opensource. but the beef of the 3d driver is in the libGLES* binary-only libraries. and most the gsm/3g stuff happens on modem chip. |
| 10:29.57 | lardman | planar YUV |
| 10:29.58 | Woolly | i know it's 640*480 |
| 10:30.04 | Woolly | cool |
| 10:30.34 | khiraly_mc | suihkulokki: so its pretty much the nvidia case here, no? |
| 10:30.35 | lardman | you might want to adjust the caps though as 640x480 is a bit slow |
| 10:31.08 | suihkulokki | khiraly_mc: exctept that nvidia has closed stuff in the kernel module too |
| 10:32.05 | lupine_85 | so in theory, you can use the closed-source stuff against any kernel? |

| 11:20.16 | lardman | yes we read part of the data into a new array |
| 11:20.33 | lardman | you should be able to just pass the whole buffer and set the width & height appropriately |
| 11:20.48 | lardman | as the data is YUV and for my testing at least, the Y data was all at the front |
| 11:21.23 | Woolly | so the width becomes 640*2 and the height remains at 480, right? |
| 11:21.37 | lardman | no, just 640 & 480 |
| 11:21.54 | lardman | then trailing that data are two sets of 320x240 for the U/V |

| 11:39.28 | javispedro | at all. |
| 11:39.31 | javispedro | so it would suck... |
| 11:39.56 | lcuk | there never was for spectrum or amiga really either |
| 11:40.04 | lcuk | but that didnt stop analog feeling joysticks |
| 11:40.14 | lcuk | and everyone would tilt at the corners playing racing games |
| 11:40.29 | javispedro | well, i could see using a joystick to control a d-pad, but using tilt to control a d-pad... |
| 11:40.40 | javispedro | well |
| 11:40.45 | javispedro | it would be cool for mario kart of course |
| 11:40.46 | lardman | hmm, looks like alsa |
| 11:40.57 | javispedro | lardman: sorry, pulse |
| 11:41.14 | lcuk | javispedro, of course it wouldnt be perfect :) but it adds a level of interaction |
| 11:41.23 | lcuk | lardman, i dunno how it works |
| 11:41.26 | lcuk | is in the dark |
| 11:41.43 | javispedro | lardman: I mean, fremantle uses pulseaudio. either use the autosink (i'd assume it'd work) or the pulseaudiosink |
| 11:41.44 | lardman | is that a valid type? |
| 11:42.09 | lardman | ah, can I s/alsasink/autosink then? |
| 11:42.20 | javispedro | I dunno if that's the name, but yes, you should. |
| 11:42.28 | lardman | ok cool, thanks |
| 11:43.49 | javispedro | http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-good-plugins/html/gst-plugins-good-plugins-autoaudiosink.html |
| 11:44.06 | javispedro | I have to wonder if it uses pulseaudio by default in fremantle |
| 11:44.18 | javispedro | (much like the way they patched sdl to prefer pulse over alsa) |
| 11:44.49 | lardman | I'll try with "autoaudiosink" in that case |
| 11:45.19 | javispedro | if not, there's also http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-good-plugins/html/gst-plugins-good-plugins-gconfaudiosink.html |
| 11:45.37 | javispedro | "outputs sound to the audiosink that has been configured in GConf by the user" |

| 13:26.42 | ziyourenxiang | well, there are at least two ways |
| 13:27.02 | Woolly | ziyourenxiang: that's what I did, with Swig |
| 13:28.01 | ziyourenxiang | hmm, swig should've taken care of the wrapping, i.e., swig should invoke your C func using the unsigned char* extracted from the python string using pystring api |

| 14:17.58 | Woolly | yep |
| 14:18.13 | lardman | that looks like the best way to pass a string in and out |

| 14:22.13 | lardman | look at analyse_image() |
| 14:22.26 | lardman | I'd keep that fn on the C side, and call that from python |
| 14:22.44 | lardman | that fn scrolls through the data and calls analyse_row repeatedly |
| 14:24.00 | Woolly | gotcha |
| 14:24.45 | Woolly | but analyse image takes an unsigned char * as argument one |
| 14:25.15 | lardman | then change the def of analyse_image() to something like this: int analyse_image(char *input, char **output) |
| 14:25.29 | lardman | you need to pass the height & width too of course |

| 16:34.48 | Woolly | is it IP:2 |
| 16:35.10 | coldboot | ShadowJK: Not sure. I don't personally get to keep it, but we probably get to keep it at our office and not give it back to Nokia. |

| 16:44.08 | johnsq | coldboot: any, its x86 based, bundled with XP |

| 16:51.46 | coldboot | heh, I'm saying XP is worse than Linux. |
| 16:52.15 | coldboot | But for any operating system on any embedded device, after getting the OS to boot on the thing, there's still lots of work to be done to make the device seamlessly work. |

| 19:04.08 | CShadowRun | why will i be disappointed? |
| 19:04.26 | javispedro | because if you don't have a n900 you can't download the final ui version |
| 19:04.45 | javispedro | so you're left with the sdk gui. which is good already, but there are no apps. at all. |
| 19:04.51 | javispedro | builtin apps I mean. |
| 19:05.06 | SpeedEvil | qemu would be - probably - about 5-10% of the speed of the real device - if there was a worthwhile target |
| 19:05.06 | CShadowRun | :o |
| 19:05.13 | CShadowRun | why can you not download the final ui version? |
| 19:05.16 | SpeedEvil | I mean a target that supported the CPU and GPU and stuff |

| 19:15.38 | javispedro | :P |
| 19:15.44 | javispedro | RST38h: what you have in mind? |
| 19:16.31 | RST38h | javis: I write you an assembly function that does 400x240 ==> 800x480 copy and you add it to OpenTTD? =) |
| 19:17.00 | CShadowRun | hehe i'm not that familiar with the mobile plans, does the insurance cover theft? |
| 19:17.19 | ShadowJK | RST38h, what for? |
| 19:17.23 | ShadowJK | I mean.. why |
| 19:17.24 | RST38h | does it cover "theft" of mobile "services" by the insured? |
| 19:17.28 | johnsq | RST38h: why not use 800x480 direct? |
| 19:17.33 | ShadowJK | yeah |
| 19:17.49 | RST38h | johnsq,ShadowJK: google for "n900 screen size" |
| 19:17.54 | RST38h | then weep. |
| 19:17.59 | javispedro | johnsq: maemo layout guide says 32px in n900 is "3.1mm" |
| 19:17.59 | ShadowJK | It's fine |
| 19:18.02 | CShadowRun | RST38h, i mean theft of the handset :P |
| 19:18.21 | ShadowJK | RST38h, if they double PPI again I'll stop seeing the pixels |
| 19:18.32 | javispedro | which means the news bar (where the news ticket scroll!!) is less than 1mm tall. |
| 19:18.46 | ShadowJK | need sharper stylus :) |
| 19:18.48 | javispedro | envisions playing openttd with a magnifier |
| 19:19.00 | SpeedEvil | CShadowRun: The insurance will generally be totally variable depending on provider. |
| 19:19.12 | CShadowRun | i see |
| 19:19.15 | RST38h | javis: a little assembly x2 magnifier, delivered to you in an .s file ? =) |
| 19:19.22 | SpeedEvil | But theft is almost always covered - though may have some exclusion clauses |
| 19:19.37 | javispedro | RST38h: ok, will see what can I do. but then I can use it for drnoksnes? :D |
| 19:19.45 | javispedro | either way |
| 19:19.49 | RST38h | javis: yeah, I do not mind at all |
| 19:19.52 | javispedro | fun stuff will happen to the toolbar |
| 19:19.57 | CShadowRun | yea, i'm just thinking if i lock myself into a 2 year contract, and after the first month someone pulls a knife and steals it, i'm stuffed for the next 15 months lol |
| 19:20.14 | javispedro | will need to check out that code used by the DS port to halve it |
| 19:20.15 | CShadowRun | (welcome to london \o/) |
| 19:20.22 | RST38h | javis: will have to try making it vertical, in two columns... |
| 19:20.49 | javispedro | 400x240 sounds a bit on the lower side |
| 19:20.59 | RST38h | it is, but then OpenTTD works on S60 phones |
| 19:21.00 | javispedro | my plan was to wait for 0.8.0 and reflowable dialogs |
| 19:21.21 | javispedro | but then i don't know when is it going out and if does what I think it does ;) |
| 19:21.33 | ShadowJK | as long as any screenshrinking can be turned off and on :) |
| 19:21.36 | RST38h | javis: I see no other easy way to deal with the smaller screen size |
| 19:21.45 | RST38h | javis: Except for adding keyboard controls maybe |
| 19:21.55 | javispedro | pft. |
| 19:22.08 | RST38h | What? Kbd controls will work |
| 19:22.28 | ShadowJK | I remember playing openttd on my P3-733MHz.. it was a bit underpowered for serious games :) |
| 19:22.48 | javispedro | RST38h: how? |
| 19:23.00 | javispedro | ah |
| 19:23.07 | javispedro | because you consider the problem to be toolbar icons |
| 19:23.19 | javispedro | na, but then the dialogs are still smallish |
| 19:23.19 | RST38h | javis: Well with the small touchscreen your main problem is touching the tiny spots |
| 19:23.35 | RST38h | javis: If you have got a cursor you can move with arrow buttons, that is no longer the problem |
| 19:23.36 | javispedro | ~curse small screen |
| 19:23.37 | infobot | May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your most sensitive regions, small screen ! |
| 19:23.53 | RST38h | javis: you will still have to squint, but at least you wont need lcuk's finger surgery |
| 19:23.59 | javispedro | RST38h: there's code for even enlarging the font size in openttd |

| 19:41.20 | GAN800 | "Big widgets" and "Up-top widgets" |
| 19:41.26 | andre__ | hehe |
| 19:42.16 | lardman | hmm, autofocus |
| 19:42.27 | lardman | or rather, how to change the focus |
| 19:42.36 | lardman | any thoughts people? |
| 19:42.49 | ShadowJK | Oh yeah, can the N900 camera autofocus while recording video? :P |
| 19:42.58 | RST38h | doubts it |
| 19:42.58 | lardman | dunno |
| 19:43.07 | ShadowJK | It doesn't on my E75, and it's annoying |
| 19:43.11 | ShadowJK | can't do near shots |
| 19:43.17 | andre__ | i'd only answer your question if you answer mine (but i have no clue anyway) :-P |
| 19:43.29 | CShadowRun | SpeedEvil, that's intresting, the Combi 25 + Web'n'Walk works out at £528.40 (£29.36 * 18), The n900 is £500, so that means £28.40 for 300 minutes/texts per month, unlimited data, and insurance for 18 months |
| 19:43.32 | lardman | go on, what do you want to know andre__? |
| 19:43.33 | CShadowRun | not a bad deal o.O |
| 19:43.34 | RST38h | thinks Nokia devices need "I am NOT a camera" disclaimer |

| 23:18.31 | javispedro | the interviewer wouldn't have stand a chance with the older palm ceo, ed colligan. ed would have beat the presenter to death |
| 23:18.39 | bobbyd | SpeedEvil: yep, looking there now |
| 23:18.42 | SpeedEvil | http://www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk/Brands/Nokia/Nseries-Multimedia-Phones/sb489/n443/p26078.aspx?lpsrc=google&lpcat=NokiaN900l&lpgrp=N900Nokia&lptxt=N900v1&lpkey=n900 nokia&gclid=CI7E8PeK-pwCFV8B4wodgyBMbg#tabsAnchor - boob |
| 23:18.46 | SpeedEvil | bobbo |
| 23:18.47 | SpeedEvil | meh |
| 23:19.00 | qpoi | zerojay: the question i'm asking is relative to that of desktop speeds -- not absolute |
| 23:19.07 | bobbyd | yep0 seen that |
| 23:19.29 | bobbyd | I like the t mobile deal, if it's not as restrictive as it seems |
| 23:19.38 | bobbyd | ge |
| 23:20.16 | bobbyd | oops :). Get the n900 and unlimited (up to 1GB per month) for 39 quid a month for 12 months and 40 quid up front |
| 23:20.19 | bobbyd | pretty good |
| 23:20.35 | qpoi | zerojay: is it comparable to desktop speeds on yours? |
| 23:20.48 | SpeedEvil | bobbyd: t-mobile deal? |
| 23:21.17 | bobbyd | SpeedEvil: yep, through that site |
| 23:21.58 | SpeedEvil | I diddn't see t-mobile |
| 23:21.58 | SpeedEvil | maybe they've updated since I last looked |
| 23:22.01 | SpeedEvil | was just voda |
| 23:22.19 | bobbyd | you have to click the tabs at the bottom |
| 23:22.43 | bobbyd | then select pay monthly |
| 23:22.43 | SpeedEvil | IIRC the cheapest through voda 'SIM free' - well - it comes with a voda 'simplicity' SIM - was 396 |
| 23:23.39 | SpeedEvil | Which works out to - comparing with the contract - 6/mo for the contract - the network connection part |
| 23:23.42 | SpeedEvil | which isn't too bad |
| 23:23.57 | bobbyd | right, but then you don't have mobile web... |
| 23:26.59 | bobbyd | the t-mobile deal is £90 more for unlimited web for a year, so £7.5 a month, which is pretty good |
| 23:28.19 | SpeedEvil | yeah |
| 23:29.10 | ShadowJK | qpoi, got an N8x0? |
| 23:29.14 | bobbyd | actually, missed an extra £40 there, so it's about a tenner |
| 23:29.45 | bobbyd | andre__: tell me one thing, is it as good as it seems from the videos? |
| 23:30.17 | SpeedEvil | Check the extras - IIRC t-mobile were throwing in free wifi access or something |
| 23:30.32 | bobbyd | hmmmm |
| 23:31.01 | andre__ | bobbyd, that's a very vague question |
| 23:32.11 | bobbyd | andre__: ok, do you feel any of the features have been misrepresented, and don't live up to the hype? |
| 23:32.46 | andre__ | i in general have issues with such open questions. e.g. define "the videos". i think i haven't seen all of them |
| 23:33.16 | andre__ | and the latest hardware that's going to be sold is definitely better than what's around here |
| 23:34.06 | *** part/#maemo hap (n=hap@nimp.conovae.net) |
| 23:34.25 | javispedro | why, why, why on earth doesn't HildonCheckButton inherit from GtkToggleButton, or even better, GtkCheckButton. |
| 23:35.12 | andre__ | javispedro, wasn't there a bug report about that? |
| 23:35.39 | javispedro | andre__, right, as usual :) |
| 23:35.42 | javispedro | https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4739 |
| 23:35.54 | andre__ | in short: because it's too late to break api |
| 23:35.56 | javispedro | WONTFIX. *sigh* well. |
| 23:36.10 | andre__ | in long: yeah, very stupid to not think about it in the beginning |
