| 03:33.12 | zelrikriando | is maemo set to be on other devices than tablets/phones? |
| 03:33.32 | johnx | that's one of those questions that seems pretty clear cut |
| 03:33.59 | johnx | I don't think nokia is strongly pushing it that direction right now, but it is open source |
| 03:33.59 | zelrikriando | I think I am also asking if maemo is nokia only |
| 03:34.05 | zelrikriando | ok |
| 03:34.22 | zelrikriando | but nobody has 'stolen' the code yet to make a port |
| 03:34.37 | johnx | and there's a project called the mer project which takes the open parts of maemo (the ui mostly) and rebases it on debian/ubuntu |
| 03:34.50 | zelrikriando | ok |
| 03:35.02 | GeneralAntilles | zelrikriando, Nokia appears to have no interest in licensing it at the moment. |
| 03:35.30 | GeneralAntilles | zelrikriando, the closest thing is, as johnx says, Mer. |
| 03:35.46 | zelrikriando | it'd be nice if it can expand to more hardware :) |
| 03:35.49 | GeneralAntilles | ~mer |
| 03:35.50 | infobot | mer is, like, http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer, or on #mer |
| 03:35.50 | johnx | and mer does aim to be source-package compatible in most of the ways that matter |
| 03:36.02 | zelrikriando | ok |
| 03:36.03 | johnx | zelrikriando, what device are you thinking? |
| 03:36.09 | GeneralAntilles | Mer is basically Maemo without Nokia's closed differentiation stuff on top. |
| 03:36.22 | zelrikriando | johnx: netbooks/smartbooks or laptops even |
| 03:36.27 | johnx | hmmm |
| 03:36.54 | johnx | well...maemo/mer is really optimized for touch based interfaces on smallish screens |
| 03:36.58 | GeneralAntilles | Honestly it's not really appropriate for that. |
| 03:37.07 | zelrikriando | ok |
| 03:37.10 | johnx | I can't picture it being all that fun on a netbook |
| 03:37.14 | GeneralAntilles | Touch doesn't translate well to trackpad/keyboard. |
| 03:37.19 | johnx | yeah |
| 03:37.21 | GeneralAntilles | But Moblin may be more what you're looking for. |
| 03:37.28 | johnx | or ubuntu unr |
| 03:37.35 | johnx | big fan of that myself :) |
| 03:37.50 | GeneralAntilles | Both, so far, mostly seem like Clutter demos. ;) |
| 03:38.09 | johnx | GeneralAntilles, except that one has a real distro behind it ;) |
| 03:38.11 | zelrikriando | I d need to consider unr |
| 03:38.14 | zelrikriando | on my laptop |
| 03:38.27 | johnx | on a real laptop, ubuntu is pretty nice |
| 03:38.28 | GeneralAntilles | Moblin's being slightly more impressive than Ubuntu's, but the whole Fedora thing. . . . |
| 03:38.30 | zelrikriando | I am running Linux Mint right now |
| 03:38.36 | johnx | ah |
| 03:38.48 | johnx | dunno what to tell you |
| 03:39.00 | johnx | grass always looks greener on the other side I guess |
| 03:39.15 | zelrikriando | I dont like fedora/rpm stuff |
| 03:39.24 | zelrikriando | yeah |
| 03:39.35 | zelrikriando | I am just interested in trying new stuff I guess |
| 03:39.44 | zelrikriando | being bored on my gnome :D |
| 03:40.19 | johnx | decided boring was good for his main machine |
| 03:40.19 | luke-jr | zelrikriando: I'm running KDE 4.3 on my N810 |

| 03:42.56 | zelrikriando | ^^ |
| 03:43.06 | luke-jr | I have terrible experience with GNOME |
| 03:43.27 | johnx | had a bad experience with avocado dip once :/ |
| 03:43.47 | zelrikriando | by bad, I mean very bad |
| 03:44.18 | luke-jr | zelrikriando: KDE is basically a semi-rewrite with every major version |
| 03:44.18 | johnx | sick to your stomach for half a day? |
| 03:44.21 | zelrikriando | like downloading a gnome-based distro in the middle of the night to fix my computer |
| 03:44.26 | luke-jr | zelrikriando: fail |

| 03:44.34 | johnx | alright |
| 03:44.42 | johnx | desktop wars means, I should have dinner instead :P |

| 05:12.16 | luke-jr | yeah |
| 05:12.27 | johnx | kinda neat I s'pose |
| 05:12.46 | luke-jr | PowerPC |
| 05:12.53 | ShadowJK | imagine if you had like virtualization, and could migrate system image from one CPU to the other |
| 05:12.59 | johnx | I want it the other way around though, with the lower power machine being the master |
| 05:13.01 | ShadowJK | or if you ran http://www.mosix.org/txt_about.html on it |
| 05:15.08 | johnx | I really like the physical separation, especially separating the I/O |
| 05:15.31 | johnx | CPU scheduling is pretty easy to balance, but I/O scheduling seems more difficult |
| 05:21.24 | johnx | guys from the UK: stop complaining about the price of the N900 :P |
| 05:23.18 | ShadowJK | lol |
| 05:23.36 | johnx | free with 18months of t-mo contract is not too bad |
| 05:24.15 | johnx | qwerty12 just headed out the door to buy one :P |
| 05:25.46 | ShadowJK | somehow the use of the word "free" in that context makes me cringe :) |
| 05:26.08 | johnx | s/free/subsidized/ |
| 05:26.17 | johnx | still, lots of people were asking for it |
| 05:26.25 | johnx | probably mostly USians though |
| 05:26.46 | johnx | though in the US we don't get a break for going month to month |
| 05:27.37 | ShadowJK | operators here haven't yet managed to make it complicated enough without users crying foul and jumping ship |
| 05:27.56 | ShadowJK | complicated enough for users not to figure out how much the operator is really subsidizing, I mean |
| 05:27.57 | johnx | and the 30GBP/month isn't really *more* than we'd be paying in USD for the same services |
| 05:28.43 | johnx | so that leaves a 16month commitment, which would be fine for me since the phone will only get 3G in the US with t-mo anyways |
| 05:29.29 | ShadowJK | checks if his operator has "productized" n900 yet |
| 05:29.36 | ShadowJK | the CEO promised in the forums that it's coming :-( |
| 05:30.28 | johnx | eh, it'll get it in more hands |
| 05:30.43 | johnx | and really, for some people it is actually a better deal |
| 05:31.40 | ShadowJK | hm? |
| 05:31.58 | johnx | phones subsidized by contract |
| 05:34.11 | ShadowJK | I wonder if I should preorder from nokia or wait for general availability :x |
| 05:34.47 | johnx | well, it's already down ~60USD from amazon.com |
| 05:35.14 | johnx | i bet it's 550GBP a couple weeks after launch |
| 05:40.52 | ShadowJK | well there'll certainly be competition on the margin amongst retailers |
| 05:41.02 | ShadowJK | but I don't see nokia dropping the price for many months |
| 05:41.07 | johnx | really? |
| 05:41.16 | johnx | ah, hmm |
| 05:41.22 | johnx | actually that makes sense |
| 05:41.28 | johnx | maybe a price drop in january |
| 05:42.09 | ShadowJK | With N97 they were dropping the price because there wasn't really much hype and/or demand.. |
| 05:42.35 | ShadowJK | Seems like N900 is going to be supply limited for a few months |
| 05:42.56 | ShadowJK | It would just be stupid with a price cut when people are queueing to get their devices :) |
| 05:43.22 | johnx | i doubt it'll be constantly sold out or anything like that |
| 05:43.50 | johnx | anyways, I think I might actually sleep for once this week |
| 05:44.04 | ShadowJK | I wonder if the slip from october to novemberish is to give the good software people more time, or to build up bigger inventory first |

| 10:55.11 | Corsac | kirma: the thing is, if I understand correctly the 5-steps plan Nokia has, for the 4th step there should be some marketing done, before the release |
| 10:55.18 | Corsac | I mean, mass marketing or something |
| 10:55.22 | lcuk | when you are logged in and view the journal entry here http://slashdot.org/~LiquidCoooled/journal/237409 dont you have the firehose +- things? |
| 10:55.23 | Corsac | which has not yet happened, at least here |
| 10:55.29 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: I mean - I can't find the link in there anyway |
| 10:55.39 | lcuk | cant either |
| 10:55.44 | SpeedEvil | lcuk: no, I don't |
| 10:55.48 | lcuk | they screwed with the firehose since i last used it |
| 10:56.15 | SpeedEvil | ah |
| 10:56.17 | SpeedEvil | http://slashdot.org/~LiquidCoooled/firehose/ |
| 10:56.42 | SpeedEvil | Also - bad topic |
| 10:56.50 | SpeedEvil | most people won't have heard of most of the keywords |
| 10:57.31 | lbt | I notice the Ts&Cs for PUSH include "and Nokia may publish the material free of charge and/or incorporate it or any concepts described in it in our products without accountability or liability" "and you agree to indemnify us if any third party takes action against us in relation to the material you submit." |
| 10:57.32 | SpeedEvil | finds out that lcuk is ugly. |
| 10:57.56 | SpeedEvil | lbt: that generally means if you ripped something off - or infringed a patent. |
| 10:57.58 | Stskeeps | lbt: fairly normal i think |
| 10:58.11 | SpeedEvil | lbt: So do a full patent search before submitting. |
| 10:58.16 | lcuk | lbt, hows that work with the announced hardware hacks using TM and C material |
| 10:58.22 | lbt | it would be if PUSH were a GPL type thing... |
| 10:58.30 | lcuk | speak n spell, viewmaster rolodex etc |
| 10:58.36 | lbt | but I got the feeling PUSH was more on the commercial side... |
| 10:58.47 | lbt | or at least had that aspect... |
| 10:58.56 | lcuk | its for use in a storefront installation |
| 10:59.04 | lcuk | so yeah its gonna be commercial |
| 10:59.33 | lbt | so "give us your cool ideas and we'll take 'em and make money - thanks" |
| 10:59.52 | lbt | just wondering out loud |
| 10:59.57 | lcuk | but it gives the opportunity for the teams to be brought together, given resources and help to produce a top class design and showcase it for the world :) |
| 11:00.51 | lbt | SpeedEvil: the thing about contracts is not what they are for, but what they say. |
| 11:01.14 | lcuk | in open source we rarely get the opportunity to bring our ideas through because of funding issues. this removes that barrier and gives people valuable pathway to commercial bespoke artistic installations :) |
| 11:01.17 | SpeedEvil | lbt: yes - I know - the above comment wasn't totally serious. |
| 11:01.21 | lbt | :) |
| 11:01.49 | SpeedEvil | As a full patent search for non-trivial software is going to cost you _lots_. |
| 11:01.49 | lcuk | lbt, the art of open source :) |
| 11:01.54 | lbt | so I just noticed and thought I'd mention it... |
| 11:02.28 | lbt | lcuk: so it would be nice for them to say they'd consider open-hardware-ing suitable projects... |
| 11:02.53 | lcuk | well the projects ARE being pushed to use open hardware |
| 11:03.13 | lbt | heh - you know I'm not a fanatic... |
| 11:03.16 | lcuk | the arduino project is an open spec microcomputer controller for exactly this |
| 11:03.48 | lcuk | its the sort of stuff that would cost thousands of pounds in my school days, but you can use it to hook up cool stuff |
| 11:03.57 | lcuk | is gonna be making all sorts of things soon |
| 11:04.17 | lcuk | the last hardawre hack i made was ripping a mouse apart and using the motion sensors in a double pendulum |
| 11:04.21 | kirma | corsac: I thought the fourth step really refers to N900 with Maemo 5, and fifth step is Qt platform (on Maemo 6 and others) |
| 11:04.51 | lbt | http://openremote.org/display/orb/OpenRemote+Box |
| 11:05.13 | lardman | how do I create a callback using glib? I want to stop my command line program after e.g. 10s |
| 11:05.18 | lcuk | kirma, the 5th step involves a chorus of whatever technologies it needs to connect us :) |
| 11:05.24 | lbt | wants his N900 to have a thermostat |
| 11:05.40 | lcuk | believes its the only harmonious way possible |
| 11:05.44 | lbt | so it knows whether I'm cold and to turn the heating on |
| 11:05.54 | lbt | (of course, it would help to know I'm at home too) |
| 11:05.57 | lardman | it probably has one on the die.... |
| 11:06.06 | SpeedEvil | lbt: I think it does have a CPU thermostat prolly |
| 11:06.14 | kirma | it pretty certainly has a temperature sensor... on the battery |
| 11:06.16 | lbt | hmm run at idle and work out ambient... |
| 11:06.19 | SpeedEvil | Anyway - simply write code to detect shivering. |
| 11:06.24 | lcuk | samppa, do these heartrate monitors include thermometers? |
| 11:06.27 | lcuk | lol |
| 11:06.40 | lcuk | speedevil, the heating will come on when you are idy reading the articles of playboy |
| 11:06.44 | lbt | delta heat change over time |
| 11:06.46 | Corsac | kirma: yeah but as I understood it, 4th step should see a broader audience |
| 11:06.55 | lbt | gives a measure of ambient I guess |
| 11:07.08 | kirma | yes... but that's not this device yet, I think. |
| 11:07.55 | Corsac | uh? |
| 11:08.01 | lcuk | hahah it appears on the firehose and is blue! |
| 11:08.06 | lcuk | doesnt know what blue means |
| 11:08.11 | lcuk | http://slashdot.org/firehose.pl |
| 11:08.14 | lcuk | but its there now :D |
| 11:09.16 | kirma | corsac: just the idea that I got was that fifth step occurs with maemo 6... well, maybe it's also N900, but most certainly other devices too |
| 11:09.40 | lardman | no thoughts on a timer callback? |
| 11:11.23 | lcuk | nods at kirma |
| 11:12.02 | kirma | corsac: but I've heard *some* rumors of potential marketing ramp-up around next week or something. but it's far from a fact, and especially far from undisputed one :) |
| 11:12.22 | lcuk | digital harmony would be desired. old, new, big, small - bringing us closer. |
| 11:12.49 | lardman | ah g_timer |
| 11:15.29 | Corsac | kirma: what I mean is mass marketing starts at *fourth* step |
| 11:15.33 | Corsac | == n900 |
| 11:15.52 | SpeedEvil | A scary thing for nokia is to get a large userbase using maemo5, understanding it, nice app-store, and then every maker in china can directly compete with a 100% identical OS running the same apps that the users understand. |

| 11:18.45 | kirma | the non-nokia manufacturers are bound to be on trailing edge on software, and write the "critical" 20% of software themself anyway, and they have serious issues maintaining any sort of customer confidence regarding product quality (basically, their customers don't expect to have any consumer rights after the purchase) |
| 11:18.59 | kirma | (but that doesn't matter if the device is cheap enough) |
| 11:19.16 | kirma | there are pretty good reasons why nokia doesn't opensource everything |

| 12:17.11 | lcuk | braindump03, do you want to write your own apps |
| 12:17.27 | lcuk | if so just write them in finger friendly manner |

| 15:43.39 | ccooke | lcuk: well, if they don't know it's final then they can't say "I have a final one". Which means I'd have to wait all of a few weeks. ] |
| 15:43.44 | lcuk | yeah but when would a tester know if its final or not |
| 15:43.46 | lardman | RST38h: and if the value is == 0, is that good or bad? |
| 15:43.57 | lardman | should be good |
| 15:44.22 | lcuk | ccooke, the ones shown in all the media and videos - is there a difference between them? |
| 15:44.23 | lcuk | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yk27PenpAz0 |
| 15:44.58 | ccooke | Basically, I'm wondering if it's reasonable to know now that it *might* be doable (in which case I'll order a magenetomer or five next month, because they're not that expensive) or if it's unknown (in which case, I'll wait until I can play with my n900 when it arrives) |
| 15:45.40 | lcuk | ccooke, put something on -developers making note of the real benefits of it |
| 15:45.47 | lardman | so I get this http://maemo.pastebin.com/m794c413 |
| 15:45.51 | lcuk | and why/what it might take and how it could be used etc |
| 15:46.00 | *** join/#maemo X-Fade (n=xfade@78-20-14-109.access.telenet.be) |
| 15:46.15 | ccooke | lcuk: the benefits wouldn't really be much unless quite a few people had one, to be honest |
| 15:46.35 | lcuk | explain - i love hardware and would really benefit from knowing direction |
| 15:46.42 | lardman | ccooke: do you have an url for these compasses? |
| 15:46.52 | lcuk | it would help with lots of gps free in the dark missions |
| 15:47.21 | lardman | RST38h: "No such file or directory" is an odd error message, as the device file is already open |
| 15:48.11 | ccooke | wThe way I see it, it all depends on how easy adding one is. If it's easy enough, it'd be simple to post instructions and, possibly, provide an upgrade service for people. |
| 15:48.35 | ccooke | if it's difficult, that's not really going to be plausible, even if it *can* be done. |
| 15:49.05 | ccooke | if one or two people have it, then it's highly unlikely there'll be any software that uses it - and even then, it's unlikely anyone would care |
| 15:49.07 | lardman | decides to output raw errno |
| 15:49.56 | ccooke | lardman: the components aren't exactly difficult to find. Here's one set: http://media.fukung.net/images/12813/a427bb78de298457c4de7a4fd1621ed4.jpg |
| 15:50.09 | ccooke | lardman: note that some are less than 10mm square |
| 15:50.43 | lardman | ah, I thought this was a Bluetooth module or something like that |
| 15:52.17 | ccooke | hmm, that would certainly be easier |
| 15:52.26 | ccooke | but it wouldn't help |
| 15:52.35 | ccooke | because it won't turn with the device :-) |
| 15:54.02 | lardman | I know |
| 15:54.19 | lardman | but might be good to test with before modification |
| 15:54.29 | luke-jr | ponders a homemade i.MX515 wearable with his Zaurus SL-C760 as a thin client XD |
| 15:55.08 | ccooke | heh |
| 15:55.14 | ccooke | I wonder if any of my Zaurii still work |
| 15:55.29 | ccooke | the last SL-C3200 probably does |
| 15:56.16 | lardman | hmm, perror doesn't give the right string |
| 15:56.31 | lardman | so I have return values of -22 most of the time, which is -EINVAL |
| 15:56.38 | luke-jr | ccooke: going to get the new one? |

| 16:01.51 | luke-jr | ccooke: yes |
| 16:02.01 | ccooke | luke-jr: tempted, but I'm not planning on it. |
| 16:02.24 | luke-jr | I was, until the reviews came back |
| 16:02.28 | luke-jr | and it turned out to be huge |
| 16:02.35 | luke-jr | is the SQ5 that big too BTW? |
| 16:02.51 | ccooke | depends. |
| 16:02.54 | ccooke | probably, for me |
| 16:03.11 | luke-jr | ... |
| 16:03.14 | luke-jr | it doesn't depend |
| 16:03.17 | luke-jr | it either is or isn't :/ |
| 16:03.53 | ccooke | see, the Zaurus was always sturdy enough that I had no problems sticking it in my pocket. the n810 I'd want a hard case for, and those never seemed quite sturdy enough. |
| 16:04.02 | ccooke | but the n810 was light enough to go in a shirt pocket |
| 16:04.03 | lardman | heads out for tapas, cu later |
| 16:04.53 | lardman|afk | drinking, then tapas that is, lest you Spanish types think I'm eating too early ;) |
| 16:04.53 | ccooke | luke-jr: for some people, the sq5 will be too big. for others, too small. For some, just right. For me, it's too small for a shirt pocket and too flimsy-looking for a trouser pocket, so I'd skip it. |
| 16:06.02 | ccooke | (and my bag usually contains a 17" laptop, so there's no real point in me having anything else I can't carry on my person) |
| 16:06.58 | luke-jr | ccooke: Is SQ5 as big as the PC-Z1? |
| 16:07.35 | luke-jr | apparently not |
| 16:07.40 | luke-jr | yet they both claim 5" |
| 16:07.42 | luke-jr | O.o |
| 16:08.06 | luke-jr | ccooke: I don't carry a bag, so I want the biggest that will reasonably fit in my pocket |
| 16:08.33 | ccooke | luke-jr: 5" is the size of the screen |

| 16:25.06 | Firebird | well, when you touch the screen a second time it quickly moves the cursor to a new location between the two touches, if the hypotenuse of that relative movement is greater than threshold value X, calculate scale by the hypotenuse of current mouse position to mouse click position divided by the hypotenuse value of the position where the relative movement .....this is hard to explain |

| 18:07.29 | luke-jr | braindump03: Gentoo+KDE is the closest |
| 18:07.52 | dneary | In the probably accepted, 2 presentations will be merges |
| 18:07.59 | braindump03 | I think, Gentoo + IceWM is closer. But It's not very finger friendly, is it? |
| 18:08.19 | VDVsx | dneary, humm, waiting for me, I thought I voted in everything in the other day, gonna check |
| 18:09.58 | VDVsx | dneary, ah ok, there's one, can I vote now or you are editing ? |
| 18:10.09 | dneary | With the state of the schedule, we have 8 presentation slots open, enough lightning talk slots if everyone accepts, |
| 18:10.14 | dneary | Let me save first |
| 18:10.34 | dneary | Saved - refresh |
| 18:11.16 | dneary | 2 presentations missing your comments: high res imaging and test framework tool |
| 18:11.20 | keesj | dneary: Are we fine on content? do we need more content? |
| 18:11.35 | dneary | keesj: We need less ;) |
| 18:11.46 | dneary | I think we were too generous with early proposals |
| 18:12.06 | dneary | But there was some pressure from people: "why is the schedule empty? The nokia day is full already") |
| 18:12.42 | dneary | So we ended up not keeping enough slots for the last minute rush of high quality proposals from BNokia people when they got their travel funding approved |
| 18:12.59 | dneary | It would have been better if they propose first, and let us know after if they couldn't come |
| 18:13.06 | dneary | Anyhoo... |
| 18:13.30 | VDVsx | dneary, I also have doubts about the high res proposal :( |
| 18:13.36 | VDVsx | let me see |
| 18:14.08 | dneary | I tend to agree with Quim's analysis of a few of the talks we can move |
| 18:14.13 | dneary | To BOF slots |
| 18:14.24 | dneary | and I agree that we can reduce Daniel's slot to 25 mins |
| 18:16.08 | lcuk | dneary, wheres the proposals list |
| 18:16.28 | dneary | lcuk: Maemo Summit 2009/Submissions |
| 18:16.40 | dneary | lcuk: Talk: plus that for deliberations |
| 18:16.43 | VDVsx | dneary, I disagree with the first two (Quim analysis), because they target a users audience and we don't have others to replace them |
| 18:16.50 | lcuk | cool ta |
| 18:19.56 | lcuk | mmm dneary liqbase or stars arent there any more |
| 18:20.29 | VDVsx | lcuk, already accepted ;) |
| 18:20.48 | VDVsx | ^this is the submission queue |
| 18:20.56 | lcuk | ahhh sneaky |
| 18:23.28 | VDVsx | dneary, ok then, we can start adding some of the accepted into the grid :) |
| 18:24.27 | keesj | dneary: ok |
| 18:24.48 | dneary | lcuk: Because they're no longer under consideration |
| 18:25.19 | dneary | VDVsx: Looking at Quim's suggestions: widget design - what's your take? |
| 18:27.04 | VDVsx | dneary, I would say yes, despite my previous considerations about this talk, at least seems much more suitable than the other one proposed by the same guy |
| 18:28.10 | lcuk | can i reasonably ask - why on day 1 do the ui design stuff and the ui panel collide. isnt it sensible to expect a person wanting to go to one would want to see both |
| 18:28.50 | VDVsx | lcuk, ask Nokia, not us :P |
| 18:28.57 | lcuk | will lol |
| 18:29.09 | lcuk | its like xfactor and strictly |
| 18:29.16 | lcuk | the missus switches over every few minutes |
| 18:29.22 | lcuk | but cant really run between rooms |
| 18:29.36 | lcuk | o_O setup proxy with cams |
| 18:29.38 | VDVsx | lcuk, rants about the other days direct them to us ;) |
| 18:29.40 | lcuk | and live streams |
| 18:29.57 | lcuk | lol i will have to scroll down first - it just stood out like a sore thumb |
| 18:32.36 | lcuk | that looks stupidly wrong. the panel could occur after the other ui bits and build on each other and give users a chance to discuss it. -developers or -community for this? |
| 18:33.44 | braindump03 | luke-jr: Found your how-to. But, is there any way to build a gentoo image and flash it into the n810 so i can use the internal mmc as /home? |
| 18:34.32 | luke-jr | braindump03: you could easily do that just by mounting it as /home |
| 18:35.04 | luke-jr | braindump03: you mean slonopotamus's how-to? |
| 18:35.07 | braindump03 | Yeah, but how to install Gentoo onto the flash instead of the internal mmc? |
| 18:35.14 | luke-jr | http://slonopotamus.org/gentoo-on-n8x0 |
| 18:35.19 | luke-jr | braindump03: uh, I've done neither |
| 18:35.27 | braindump03 | Yup, this one |
| 18:35.30 | luke-jr | you didn't say flash root :p |
| 18:35.38 | slonopotamus | braindump03, flash? 128mb? |
| 18:35.39 | luke-jr | I doubt it's big enough |
| 18:35.44 | braindump03 | Because I do not have MiniSD at the moment ;) |
| 18:36.06 | luke-jr | braindump03: my / is 4.8 GB right now |
| 18:36.38 | braindump03 | Yeah, internal mmc has 2Gig?! |
| 18:36.49 | slonopotamus | hmm... 2.6gb here only. |
| 18:36.53 | luke-jr | braindump03: there's a reason we only support external SD :p |
| 18:37.03 | slonopotamus | hmm |
| 18:37.09 | braindump03 | Thats crap. |
| 18:37.18 | luke-jr | you *might* squeeze it on the internal MMC if you trim /usr/share/doc or such |
| 18:37.32 | luke-jr | take out kernel sources after installing wifi modules |
| 18:37.45 | slonopotamus | luke-jr, if you really want, you can strip lots of not-so-necessary stuff |
| 18:37.50 | braindump03 | Hum, i could try to mount /usr/portage from nfs |
| 18:38.01 | luke-jr | perhaps |
| 18:38.02 | slonopotamus | braindump03, yep, that too. |
| 18:38.07 | luke-jr | slonopotamus: I have buildpkg ;) |
| 18:38.54 | dneary | VDVsx: What do you make of that? |
| 18:39.03 | slonopotamus | braindump03, stage3 + portage tree will fit in 2gb, but leaving not much place to maneuver |
| 18:39.39 | braindump03 | I'll have a fag over that ;) |
| 18:39.58 | slonopotamus | braindump03, nobody had a goal to reduce its size, so... |
| 18:39.59 | VDVsx | dneary, sorry I'm lost :) |

| 18:42.32 | dneary | dneary: The Submissions Talk page - agree with most of it? Think we can make sense of it? |
| 18:43.09 | dneary | I'm more worried about fitting in breaks and 10 minutes between sessions, when we haven't taken that into consideration all along. |

| 20:50.31 | SpeedEvil | sorry mispaste. |
| 20:50.53 | johnx | hypothetically, if someone dynamically linked a closed source library against libc, is this likely to cause problems eventually when libc is upgraded and their proprietary library isn't? |
| 20:51.55 | johnx | (given that both libraries are for ARM EABI linux, though one might be thumb and the other vfp) |

| 21:40.02 | smackpotato | so today im looking for a oppinion on swapping with flash memo |
| 21:40.48 | smackpotato | in perticular how much harm are the slow write speeds |
| 21:41.38 | luke-jr | ??? |
| 21:41.56 | johnx | swapping to sd? or swapping to the internal "rootfs" flash? |
| 21:42.52 | smackpotato | ether one. my question is conserning speed not wear |
| 21:43.41 | *** join/#maemo X-Fade (n=xfade@78-20-14-109.access.telenet.be) |
| 21:44.19 | johnx | "how much harm are the write speeds"? vs what? compared to what? |
| 21:44.35 | johnx | I swap to sd, because I like it better than running out of memory |
| 21:44.45 | smackpotato | compared to a small swap file |
| 21:44.55 | johnx | a small swap file ... where? |
| 21:45.07 | smackpotato | the same one |
| 21:45.10 | SpeedEvil | It depends on swap access patterns. |
| 21:45.39 | SpeedEvil | Worst-case you might see as low as several tens of K a second |
| 21:45.46 | SpeedEvil | best case several meg - write |
| 21:46.09 | johnx | but sd access will compete with other things trying to access that same sd card |
| 21:46.35 | johnx | i don't know if both sd cards compete with each other or if that would actually be faster |
| 21:46.54 | SpeedEvil | The internal sd is basically a standard SD - but soldered down? |
| 21:47.07 | johnx | yeah |
| 21:47.12 | johnx | and not terribly fast |
| 21:47.27 | johnx | (as long as we're talking the N810's 2GB internal SD) |

| 21:48.39 | smackpotato | im with 64mb |
| 21:48.39 | johnx | as big as you need |
| 21:48.59 | johnx | the big question is: what to set your swappiness variable to |
| 21:49.35 | smackpotato | swappiness is set to like 1 |
| 21:50.19 | johnx | yes. which means swap will only be used when absolutely needed. it's set conservatively to save card life, not aggressively to achieve the best possible speeds |
| 21:50.37 | johnx | so forget about the size, because unless you're constantly OOM, it doesn't even matter |

| 22:04.05 | braindump03 | Great. |
| 22:04.29 | braindump03 | 64GB aren't available yet, are they? |
| 22:06.19 | microlith | sdhc maxes out at 32GB |
| 22:06.28 | microlith | and no 32GB miniSDHC cards exist (yet) |
| 22:07.04 | braindump03 | I don't think, miniSD will be continued. I will use microSD with MiniSD adaptor |
| 22:07.27 | crashanddie_ | braindump03, miniSD has already been abandoned |
| 22:07.31 | crashanddie_ | braindump03, for the past 2 years? |
| 22:07.42 | braindump03 | As I said ;) |
| 22:08.25 | microlith | oh, mini |
| 22:08.38 | microlith | microsd falls into the same boat |
| 22:09.20 | braindump03 | I tried to buy miniSD yesterday. Not in stock anywhere |
| 22:09.24 | crashanddie_ | microlith, you think micro is going to die? |

| 22:18.58 | javispedro | memory stick wise. |
| 22:19.06 | johnx | mavhc, nope, 32bit is a 4GB |
| 22:19.11 | mavhc | only if you're sony |

| 22:20.15 | johnx | mavhc, err, nope. :) |
| 22:20.20 | mavhc | they're not dropping memory sticks? |
| 22:20.36 | johnx | basically with sdhc they're not using addressing bits that are included already |
| 22:20.37 | mavhc | sigh |
| 22:20.46 | mavhc | at least xd is dead, and cf, pretty much |
| 22:21.01 | johnx | cf is still around in new cameras |
| 22:21.09 | johnx | really a shame there wasn't a "micro cf" or similar |

| 22:22.13 | johnx | anyways, so yeah, they're increasing the amount of addressable bits by going from sdhc->sdxc but sdhc arbitrarily cuts it off at a certain point |
| 22:22.36 | mavhc | evil |
| 22:23.01 | johnx | of course, linux's sdhc implementation doesn't have this arbitrary limit ;) |
