| 07:54.17 | RST38h | not really |
| 07:54.26 | RST38h | start a few transfers and see it slow down to a crawl |
| 07:54.55 | RST38h | compare that to a program that just does while(1) {} - this program will not slow your system to a crawl |

| 08:42.20 | woglinde | corsac *sigh* thats what I told him |
| 08:42.23 | timeless_mbp | 'upstream' |
| 08:42.37 | timeless_mbp | in this case is a single directory tree being managed by this stupid debian junk |

| 08:43.13 | timeless_mbp | i could roll my own tool to handle this for .deb |
| 08:43.39 | timeless_mbp | .deb itself could fairly easily handle this |
| 08:44.29 | suihkulokki | timeless_mbp: for installing different changelogs, just replace dh_installchangelogs in debian/rules with your own install/cp/whatever calls |
| 08:44.55 | timeless_mbp | suihkulokki: ok, that sounds like the path i want |
| 08:45.12 | suihkulokki | timeless_mbp: actually, reading dh_installchangelogs manpage, there is a even easier solution ;) |
| 08:45.16 | woglinde | suihkulokki and how is the versioning stuff than handled? |

| 09:50.24 | Jaffa | has no idea what you're talking about... :) |
| 09:50.46 | timeless_mbp | oh! |
| 09:50.52 | Jaffa | lardman: My N900 is on charge almost all the time. Wouldn't trust it as an alarm clock if it wasn't |
| 09:51.15 | melmoth | af-sb-init scrpit is in armel target, but fails with .... qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped |
| 09:51.39 | X-Fade | Jaffa: Got woken up by a N900 which was turned off and was in a room downstairs today ;) |
| 09:52.10 | X-Fade | Jaffa: Alarm turned it on nicely. |
| 09:52.57 | lardman | hi hrw |
| 09:53.08 | lardman | X-Fade: yeah will do |
| 09:53.27 | hrw | question: does maemo5 finally contain all packages to build packages on device? |
| 09:53.39 | timeless_mbp | X-Fade: my calendar's silent brightness change woke me up at times |
| 09:53.40 | woglinde | hi hrw |
| 09:53.43 | timeless_mbp | at least in AMS |
| 09:53.53 | lardman | hrw: building on-device is being done |
| 09:54.00 | hrw | lardman: great |
| 09:54.15 | Jaffa | hrw: What, out of the box? No, of course not. However, you can install SDK packages on Maemo 4 or Maemo 5, AFAIK |
| 09:54.21 | X-Fade | timeless_mbp: blinking? |
| 09:54.29 | lardman | keesj: were you talking about building-on device and putting together some details, etc? |
| 09:54.40 | timeless_mbp | no, just brightness |
| 09:54.45 | timeless_mbp | the screen went from off to bright |
| 09:54.46 | cosmo | hello, anyone using idle irc plugin for fremantle? |
| 09:54.52 | timeless_mbp | and that was sufficient to wake me :o |
| 09:55.13 | X-Fade | timeless_mbp: Wow, you must be a very light sleeper then. |
| 09:56.20 | zerojay | cosmo: No one is because it does not work. |
| 09:56.21 | lardman | anyone know how to upload video to ovi from the N900? |
| 09:56.47 | cosmo | zerojay: well, i got it online and i can /msg to my device |
| 09:57.01 | cosmo | i was just wondering if it's possible to make it join a channel |
| 09:57.05 | zerojay | cosmo: Nope. |
| 09:57.13 | cosmo | or do anything else than just send/receive msg's |
| 09:57.16 | zerojay | Nope. |
| 09:57.19 | X-Fade | lardman: play in mediaplayer. hit video, click on share icon in lower left? |
| 09:57.35 | timeless_mbp | lardman: you should be able to select the movie and use share |
| 09:57.37 | zerojay | cosmo: The UI for multiuser chat was apparently removed in Maemo 5. |
| 09:57.41 | timeless_mbp | once you have added ovi to your sharing accounts |
| 09:57.44 | lardman | X-Fade: I thought it would be somewhere, just cuoldn't work out where |
| 09:57.46 | lardman | thanks |
| 09:58.32 | timeless_mbp | is share in the lower left? |
| 09:58.46 | timeless_mbp | oh right, the idiots couldn't keep the buttons in consistent locations across not more than 3 apps :) |
| 09:58.52 | X-Fade | timeless_mbp: yeah, that share icon is really weird. |
| 09:58.54 | cosmo | zerojay: maybe it could be hacked to do some more tricks |
| 09:59.04 | *** join/#maemo geaaru (n=geaaru@79.30.224.235) |
| 09:59.18 | timeless_mbp | cosmo: i don't recall strings for that stuff |
| 09:59.25 | timeless_mbp | so hacking it would involve translating it |
| 09:59.31 | timeless_mbp | at which point you effectively need a new app |
| 09:59.34 | zerojay | cosmo: There's way more to it than that. |
| 09:59.41 | timeless_mbp | and since the maemo apps really aren't that great |
| 09:59.46 | timeless_mbp | you might as well start elsewhere |
| 09:59.51 | zerojay | The ball's in Collabora's court. |
| 10:00.15 | timeless_mbp | maemo apps have 2 features: some attempt at small screen/fingerable + some attempts at power conservation |
| 10:00.43 | cosmo | well, ok.. the messaging seems to work pretty well though |
| 10:01.19 | cosmo | is there any way to send msg from maemo to random irc user? |
| 10:01.55 | zerojay | Nope. |
| 10:02.19 | cosmo | too bad. well integrated irc client would be a killer app |
| 10:02.22 | zerojay | idle in Maemo 5 has really suffered compared to Maemo 4. |
| 10:02.28 | zerojay | Just use Xchat, I guess. |
| 10:04.44 | Robot101 | cosmo, zerojay: actually, we've hacked the official UI to do multi-user chat, we just need to convince rtcom team to ship it as an easter egg :D |
| 10:05.31 | zerojay | Robot101: I knew you guys would come up with a solution at some point. |
| 10:05.44 | cosmo | i never found idle on maemo 4 |
| 10:06.16 | zerojay | It was part of RTCOMM. |
| 10:06.26 | cosmo | but i'd like to have some "always on" irc solution and use xchat when i really want to do irc |
| 10:06.58 | cosmo | does irc eat battery quickly? it at least used to have mandatory ping/pong's in protocol |
| 10:07.19 | timeless_mbp | Robot101: interesting |
| 10:07.22 | timeless_mbp | goes hunting |
| 10:07.24 | cosmo | i wrote the first irc client to nokia 9500 years ago, dunno if the protocol is smarter nowadays |
| 10:07.43 | zerojay | cosmo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/zerojay/3878795833/ - IRC through RTCOMM on Maemo 4. |
| 10:07.59 | Robot101 | cosmo: IRC is in no way smart |
| 10:08.02 | zerojay | cosmo: If IRC used battery quick, I've never noticed it. |
| 10:08.40 | timeless_mbp | frowns |
| 10:08.50 | timeless_mbp | will definitely need to show a progress indicator |
| 10:08.56 | cosmo | iirc it had mandatory ping/pong messages with server every minute or so. i think it would eat battery.. |
| 10:09.10 | timeless_mbp | 3mins is the typical timeout |
| 10:09.13 | argontus_ | depends on the server I guess but ping/pong happens about once per minute |
| 10:09.19 | SpeedEvil | timeless: timeout != ping |
| 10:09.21 | zerojay | Sending one small packet shouldn't really take up that much battery, really. |
| 10:09.21 | timeless_mbp | which means you can get away w/ 150s |
| 10:09.30 | SpeedEvil | timeless: freenode timesout at 5 min IIRC |
| 10:09.36 | SpeedEvil | but, it pings every 30s |
| 10:09.38 | X-Fade | Once a minute really shouldn't kill your pattery. |
| 10:09.43 | timeless_mbp | zerojay: waking up the radio is incredibly expensive |
| 10:09.55 | timeless_mbp | so much so that we have idiots coming and asking us to break the browser |
| 10:09.57 | X-Fade | Wow, where did that p come from ;) |
| 10:10.05 | timeless_mbp | "hi, please break the browser" |
| 10:10.21 | zerojay | timeless_mbp: Well, if it was, I've never once noticed a battery life hit and I was on IRC all the time. |
| 10:10.21 | SpeedEvil | break? |
| 10:10.37 | timeless_mbp | "in some extremely deformed test for an impossible edge case, the browser can be harmful if the user takes their device to an incredibly stupid web service" |
| 10:11.04 | timeless_mbp | "we'd like you to increase the per minute cost for users in countries that are charged by the bit" |

| 10:11.15 | woglinde | where are the findutils |
| 10:11.19 | timeless_mbp | this was not the way they worded it |
| 10:11.23 | timeless_mbp | but these were the results |
| 10:11.27 | SpeedEvil | I personally want the browser to always freeze if I'm not looking at it. |
| 10:11.43 | timeless_mbp | SpeedEvil: even if it's the active app? |
| 10:11.45 | zerojay | Fuck that. |
| 10:11.51 | timeless_mbp | we need to install eye monitoring hardware? |
| 10:12.06 | zerojay | Browser freeze means you aren't multitasking anymore. What's the point of that? |
| 10:12.08 | SpeedEvil | timeless: well - I mean of course if it's offscreen |
| 10:12.23 | timeless_mbp | SpeedEvil: ok, so you don't want to support irc over web in the background |
| 10:12.25 | SpeedEvil | zerojay: maybe configurable across websites. |
| 10:12.32 | timeless_mbp | and you don't want to support internet radio in the web browser in the background |
| 10:12.46 | timeless_mbp | or just listening to a youtube broadcast while you do something else |

| 10:20.34 | SpeedEvil | timeless: preliminary indications are very good on compression. |
| 10:20.40 | timeless_mbp | so... |
| 10:20.47 | timeless_mbp | the browser doesn't have any disk cache |
| 10:20.59 | timeless_mbp | if you want to give your system a nice win |
| 10:21.07 | timeless_mbp | get a browser that has one ... |
| 10:21.09 | timeless_mbp | kicks someone |
| 10:21.28 | timeless_mbp | SpeedEvil: the question is, what kind of sites are you visiting? |
| 10:21.55 | SpeedEvil | timeless: This is a http proxy - it has a ~50M disk cache - say on the device. It has a copy of this cache on the proxy server. Any downloaded page is served as diffs between the local cache - if it'd help. |

| 11:51.29 | mgedmin | I love how "ten oldest open enhancements" list in the bug jar has entries saying "(new this week)" |
| 11:51.45 | DocScrutinizer | the question is: Does N900 follow the Nokiacharger / USB2.0- charger supplement scheme, which requires a arther "soft" PSU that drops voltage on increasing curent. Or does N900 simply try to draw whatever current from USB-VBUS unconditionally and assuming a "hard" PSU that is supposed to cope with max current the N900 ay ask for |
| 11:52.06 | DocScrutinizer | nnod: yep, charging N900 from FR |
| 11:52.26 | ShadowJK | DocScrutinizer, there's a MicroUSB charging specification. Might have clues |
| 11:52.31 | DocScrutinizer | FR is a "hard" PSU with 500mA max |
| 11:52.56 | DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: [2009-10-19 13:51:45] <DocScrutinizer> the question is: Does N900 follow the Nokiacharger / USB2.0- charger supplement scheme |
| 11:53.03 | nnod | wow, must be a big drain on the battery |
| 11:53.28 | DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: USB2.0- charger supplement == MicroUSB charging specification |
| 11:53.52 | hrw | lcuk: alive? |
| 11:53.54 | ShadowJK | I know someone made their freerunner extremely hot when they used it to charge N900 ;-) |

| 11:55.04 | SpeedEvil | Corsac: it's a complex subject. |
| 11:55.13 | DocScrutinizer | suihkulokki: thanks a lot |
| 11:55.17 | Corsac | so with 7 usb port one could charge a touchbook |
| 11:55.21 | Corsac | hides |
| 11:55.28 | SpeedEvil | Corsac: The normal USB port is specified to provide 500mA |
| 11:55.34 | ShadowJK | Corsac, only if the USB hub has a powersupply capable of it |
| 11:55.43 | suihkulokki | but: also, when n900 is in the market, it will be usb certified, including ensuring it adheres to all requirements of usb charging spec |
| 11:55.45 | SpeedEvil | Corsac: but it may in practice supply more. |
| 11:55.46 | Corsac | yeah, 7 independant usb port |
| 11:55.52 | hrw | Corsac: USB spec says that host usb port should give 100mA and can give 500mA. It is also possible to give any amount in 0-500mA range |
| 11:56.29 | SpeedEvil | Not quite - the device declares it uses so much current - and the host enables it or not depending on if the total of current is under 500mA. |
| 11:56.41 | SpeedEvil | Tehre is not typically any measurement or regulation of current |
| 11:57.03 | koala_man | can the N900 work as a usb host? |
| 11:57.28 | ShadowJK | koala_man, current information: no |
| 11:57.32 | DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: the "better" host PHY chips do meassurement |
| 11:57.36 | SpeedEvil | The port will simply turn off at some current over 500mA if overloaded. (where some current may be 0.55A or 2A, depending on stuff) |
| 11:57.42 | SpeedEvil | yes - it's increasing |
| 11:57.46 | suihkulokki | has seen usb hubs that feed electricity towards the host pc too, so with cheap hubs anything goes, it seems.. |

| 11:59.38 | DocScrutinizer | suihkulokki: though great for FR which can use this to charge in hostmode even |
| 11:59.38 | mgedmin | it could be a straight recompile of a program that tries to poke values into a file in /sys |

I don't have a watch, so for checking time and date, I just push the power button on the top, then the device powers up and shows the time and date, along with the "slider" widget to actually unlock the screen. |
| 12:08.56 | SpeedEvil | DocScrutinizer: But you know that the number of people with a voltmeter, or the knowledge to do cables, and ... |

So either I have to really unlock the device with the slider widget, then press the power button and select lock again. Or I have to wait for 5 seconds on the slider screen, then it turns off automatically. |

| 12:24.26 | DocScrutinizer | timeless_mbp: it's not any more likely to accidentally press powerbutton for 15sec in your pocket, than to accidentally unlock with slider switch |
| 12:24.51 | X-Fade | Remember that there is still the proximity sensor. |
| 12:24.56 | DocScrutinizer | mihu: perfect usecase |
| 12:25.05 | ShadowJK | Does pressing powerbutton really make it unlock? |
| 12:25.39 | mihu | suihkulokki: Any contact on the touch screen will keep it in the "swipe to unlock" mode. You have to wait 5 seconds without any touch on the touchscreen. That sucks. |

| 12:26.15 | mihu | ShadowJK: No, it does not fully unlock. Just the "swipe to unlock" dialog pops up, which shows the date & time. |
| 12:26.20 | glass | the swipe to unlock screen doesn't have time/calendar? |
| 12:26.23 | DocScrutinizer | suihkulokki: that's exactly the problem. Lock screen rarely means the timer-reset for autosuspend on ts-event is disabled |
| 12:26.26 | glass | ah |
| 12:26.42 | lcuk | can i divorce my girlfriend |
| 12:26.44 | suihkulokki | DocScrutinizer: there is no autosuspend |

| 12:29.48 | mgedmin | it's not really a bug, just a very very unintuitive "works as designed" "feature" |

| 12:30.35 | timeless_mbp | i'd reopen and fix the summary |
| 12:30.38 | mgedmin | I'm thinking I should create a new enhancement request "provide a dialog for subscribing/unsubscribing to IMAP folders" |
| 12:30.44 | timeless_mbp | it should say "no way to manage subscriptions to imap folders" |

| 12:31.28 | lizardo | nnod: I just noticed that you are trying to upload scrabbledict on Diablo & Chinook right ? |
| 12:31.36 | RST38h | mgedmin: Will still be classified that way, but do not create any opportunities |
| 12:32.02 | lizardo | nnod: in this case, it is better to Build-Depend on "python2.5", because "python-dev" only exists in Fremantle |
| 12:32.05 | mgedmin | just how many different sets of frequencies are there? |
| 12:32.22 | DocScrutinizer | angasuleWork: N900 is quadband GSM afaik |
| 12:32.22 | RST38h | mgedmin: "Unable to see unsubscribed IMAP folders in Modest" for a title will do |
| 12:32.34 | mihu | Thanks everybody for the discussion. I think I will file an enhancement request wrt. to that issue. Any idea into which category I should put it? |
| 12:32.41 | RST38h | mgedmin: And make sure you mention all the other masil clients that allow this in the comments |
| 12:32.46 | timeless_mbp | no, don't ask for the ability to view unsubscribed folders |
| 12:32.51 | angasuleWork | DocScrutinizer: then wikipedia is wrong oh noes, how can that be? :? |
| 12:32.52 | timeless_mbp | just the ability to manage subscriptions |
| 12:32.56 | mgedmin | IIRC the n900 supports 4 frequencies for 2G and 3 frequences for 3G, but there are carriers out there who use a different 3G frequency |
| 12:33.00 | RST38h | that would probably do too |

| 12:35.28 | angasuleWork | DocScrutinizer: It will not function on the AT&T Mobility UMTS 3G networks which use the incompatible 850 and 1900 MHz UMTS frequency bands. |

| 15:05.01 | mgedmin | or at least jump to the other month when I release my finger, not while I'm holding it |
| 15:05.10 | mgedmin | um, actually it already does that |
| 15:05.20 | mgedmin | no, it doesn't |
| 15:05.34 | mgedmin | it jumps when I start dragging |
| 15:05.37 | mgedmin | that makes no sense at all |
| 15:05.55 | mgedmin | hm, maybe it does |
| 15:05.57 | lcuk | one of the views can be scrolled by grabbing the left hand side week view |
| 15:06.04 | mgedmin | a completely different ui paradigm from the rest |
| 15:06.13 | lcuk | nods |
| 15:06.18 | mgedmin | feels like mouse gestures |
| 15:06.23 | lcuk | maybe it is |
| 15:06.36 | lcuk | and gestures lead to the dark side |
| 15:06.42 | derf | They really do. |
| 15:06.56 | mgedmin | "calendaring software sucks" is a law of sw engineering |
| 15:07.14 | lcuk | has the calendar he always wanted |
| 15:07.42 | lcuk | now i just need to learn how to make a recess into the wall, buy a touchscreen tablet, install software, learn how to sync properly |
| 15:07.46 | mgedmin | wants to know how hildon_note_new_confirmation_add_buttons knows how many extra buttons the user supplied -- this is C! varargs have no clue how many args there were |
| 15:07.47 | lcuk | and i can stop worrying |
| 15:07.58 | lcuk | simple! |
| 15:08.13 | derf | mgedmin: NULL terminated list? |
| 15:08.19 | mgedmin | or is there a bug in this example: http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Graphical_UI_Tutorial/Controls#Confirmation_Notes |
| 15:08.30 | mgedmin | somebody omitted the NULL? |
| 15:08.40 | derf | I don't know. |
| 15:08.44 | lcuk | that looks like a bug |
| 15:08.45 | mgedmin | hildon_note_new_confirmation_add_buttons is actually a preprocessor macro that appends a , NULL at the end? |
| 15:08.54 | pupnik | mgedmin, do you think special apps like camera should break UI guidelinnes if needed? |
| 15:08.55 | mgedmin | that would be way too hacky |
| 15:09.04 | mgedmin | pupnik: if they do it with style |
| 15:09.06 | mgedmin | calendar doesn't |
| 15:09.14 | mgedmin | calendar tries and fails |
| 15:09.24 | lcuk | ... : arguments pairs for new buttons(label and return value). Terminate the list with NULL value. |
| 15:09.26 | pupnik | camera adjustments obscure screen conten / preview |
| 15:09.29 | lcuk | http://maemo.org/api_refs/4.0/hildon/HildonNote.html#hildon-note-new-confirmation-add-buttons |
| 15:09.39 | mgedmin | another style-offending apps are pdf reader and notes (really? maemo 4 style scroll bar?) |
| 15:09.49 | mihu | mgedmin: "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" works in the package I try to recompile, even when "apt-get build-dep" failed before. Of course, after I manually installed all the really necessary packages like flex, lsb-release etc. |
| 15:09.49 | pupnik | mmmm |
| 15:09.55 | derf | "Terminate the list with NULL value." |
| 15:10.00 | pupnik | but notes is necessarily in edit mode mgedmin |
| 15:10.03 | lcuk | you need a scrollbar if you are to allow selection and scorlling |
| 15:10.04 | mgedmin | lcuk: you were quoting what? |
| 15:10.08 | derf | So yeah, the example is likely wrong. |
| 15:10.13 | pupnik | we have to split between twomodes, pan and hilight |
| 15:10.13 | derf | And "works" by pure luck. |
| 15:10.22 | lcuk | derf, its not pure luck |
| 15:10.24 | derf | Because 0 is a pretty common thing to accidentally have on the stack. |

| 15:30.56 | woglinde | nnod did you already tried to use the optifier? |
| 15:31.10 | mgedmin | lcuk: it says to press the camera key within the next 20 seconds to actually take a screenshot |
| 15:31.14 | mgedmin | so I press the camera key |
| 15:31.18 | mgedmin | then nothing appears to happen |
| 15:31.49 | mgedmin | except that the camera app starts up and asks me to remove the lens cover |

| 15:31.49 | qwerty12_N810 | Ctrl-Shift-P shortcut is more annoying in this regard |

| 15:56.24 | GeneralAntilles | timeless_mbp, that'd be me. ;) |
| 15:56.31 | timeless_mbp | the explanation for that is that Gecko doesn't reflow for zooming |
| 15:56.43 | timeless_mbp | and tries to match font sizing without blowing away box layout |
| 15:56.49 | GeneralAntilles | timeless_mbp, it's basically made zooming a non-feature for me. |

| 15:58.25 | GeneralAntilles | So, upstream will fix it in, maybe, a couple months, then Nokia wont ship the updated Gecko until Harmattan, right? :) |

| 16:17.17 | GeneralAntilles | Every time I start filing issues I run into a wall because Nokia has made all of these decisions 6, 8, 12 months ago and they're thoroughly entrenched in the conclusions they came to now. |
| 16:17.25 | Jaffa | GeneralAntilles: yup |
| 16:17.29 | GeneralAntilles | So there's basically no chance of getting anything fixed or improved. |
| 16:17.30 | mgedmin | what's your favourite tinyurl clone? |
| 16:17.50 | absolute | No coral cache of that page either that you're looking for |
| 16:17.50 | GeneralAntilles | Logic and reason seem mostly to have abandoned them now. |
| 16:17.55 | mgedmin | GeneralAntilles: there's a slim chance they will consider your input behind closed doors and implement it in Maemo x+1 |
| 16:18.13 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin, right. |
| 16:18.14 | greenfly | GeneralAntilles: seems pretty logical to come up with a development plan and stick to it so you can get a release out on time |
| 16:18.29 | GeneralAntilles | By which point a dozen other changes will have made this one obsolete. |
| 16:18.34 | greenfly | seems somewhat illogical to start changing those plans based on a bug report shortly before launch |
| 16:18.38 | mgedmin | that's a good thing, isn't it? |
| 16:18.51 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin, not when those dozen other changes also suck. :( |
| 16:19.01 | mgedmin | GeneralAntilles: drink more kool-aid! |
| 16:19.03 | GeneralAntilles | greenfly, my point is that Nokia needs to open up and let us in on the development process. |
| 16:19.10 | Jaffa | greenfly: However, it'd be entirely logical for them to discuss the problems and issues in public long before they're set in stone. Free consultancy from paid software professional |
| 16:19.13 | Jaffa | s |
| 16:19.16 | GeneralAntilles | greenfly, because clearly it's not working as-is. |
| 16:19.41 | mgedmin | wonders which particular issue GA is talking about now |
| 16:19.48 | mgedmin | browser zooming, or something new? |
| 16:19.51 | greenfly | I think it's still the font zooming one |
| 16:20.02 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin, https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5369 |
| 16:20.13 | greenfly | which sounded like it was an upstream bug |
| 16:20.20 | mgedmin | ah, yes |
| 16:20.24 | mgedmin | that irritated me too |
| 16:20.34 | GeneralAntilles | jrocha's response to the key rebinding issue on -developers points to entrenchment, too. |
| 16:20.35 | mgedmin | then I convinced myself that it's a reasonable design decision |
| 16:20.58 | mgedmin | key rebinding: I read the responses as people trying to be helpful |
| 16:21.16 | greenfly | seems like a reasonable default to me as well |
| 16:21.20 | mgedmin | "I don't know how to solve the issue the way you want, but maybe you weren't aware of that other little possibility, and now knowing it maybe makes your life a bit easier?" |
| 16:21.26 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin, mostly I saw "I can't imagine any reason anybody would even need to input text any differently than we've designed" |
| 16:21.51 | mgedmin | human communication is a tricky and unsolved problem |
| 16:21.57 | greenfly | ie. if I see autocompleted text and hit bksp I'd assume it would get rid of that text first, then I'd hit it again to start at my text |
| 16:22.15 | greenfly | in either case, I don't see how it would rate as "showstopper" |
| 16:22.23 | zerojay | GeneralAntilles: Guess what. |
| 16:22.33 | GeneralAntilles | greenfly, well, once again, I've turned off autocomplete because it makes text entry more difficult. |
| 16:22.33 | greenfly | seems more like a matter of preference |
| 16:22.37 | simula | has there been any word of a n900 ship date in the states? |
| 16:22.39 | mgedmin | ooh, that bug has new flamey comments I haven't seen before |

| 16:23.06 | ali1234 | autocomplete will *always* make text entry more difficult in the case where it doesn't correctly guess what you are typing |
| 16:23.08 | zerojay | GeneralAntilles: Something's gone wrong with my device discount. lol |
| 16:23.14 | mgedmin | I never know if hitting shift will make the next letter uppercase or lowercase |
| 16:23.24 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin, also useless, since it's completely unpredictable. |
| 16:23.26 | ali1234 | that's why i turned it off and would do so regardless of this stupid backspace thing |
| 16:23.31 | mgedmin | there's no visual indication and the software (esp 3rd party) is inconsistent whether it enable sautocaps or not |
| 16:23.42 | GeneralAntilles | autocomplete I should be able to just ignore unless it's actually making my life easier. |
| 16:23.45 | ali1234 | i turned off auto capitalise too |

| 16:23.56 | GeneralAntilles | Which is why backspace should delete what I'm typing and not the autocomplete suggestion. |
| 16:24.04 | GeneralAntilles | zerojay, I would never have guessed! |
| 16:24.07 | ali1234 | yes, i think you're right |
| 16:24.08 | GeneralAntilles | zerojay, what happened? |
| 16:24.31 | ali1234 | but i'd still turn it off even if it worked like that |

| 16:24.55 | guysoft42 | absolute, yes, i got that by now. the thing is i need now a way to load the module on-boot |

| 16:25.23 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin, sadly those are seemingly no easier to get implemented than real UI settings. |
| 16:25.24 | zerojay | Starting to wonder if I was meant to get the discount at all. |
| 16:25.28 | absolute | my bad, i thought you were still struggling to see the missing info... so i dug up a cached version of it for ya |
| 16:25.33 | mgedmin | nope |
| 16:25.50 | mgedmin | GeneralAntilles: I'm +100 for an open-source input engine that I or you could tweak to our heart's content |
| 16:25.51 | javispedro | well, i got the invitation email at least. |
| 16:26.41 | zerojay | Shit, they gave me a device alongside the Fremantle stars even though I'm not a developer... so I gotta assume I SHOULD be getting a discount. |

| 17:32.19 | crashanddie | well, I guess not |

| 17:32.50 | VDVsx | crashanddie, yeah, agreed |
| 17:33.14 | crashanddie | GeneralAntilles, it's funny though... At the summit, not a couple of hours went by without me meeting someone and have them going "Who are you? Oh, crashanddie, you" |

| 17:40.18 | Stskeeps | GeneralAntilles: same problem as with seen bots |
| 17:40.21 | GeneralAntilles | Easier to just lower the total karma reward and do it by lines. |
| 17:40.29 | lcuk | GeneralAntilles, the problem with your thing is maemo.org doesnt allow swear words |
| 17:40.32 | crashanddie | GeneralAntilles, 0.01 karma per line |
| 17:40.36 | Stskeeps | sqrt(lines) could work |

| 17:41.46 | GeneralAntilles | ali1234, less than half of those are "nicks I use" |

| 17:43.37 | GeneralAntilles | Excellent, during peak European communication hours! |

| 17:52.06 | crashanddie | ali1234, anyway, getting back to the initial subject: no need to over-engineer and over-complicate things, GA is right in the fact that simply lowering the value of each sentence makes more sense than having a CPU crunch useless numbers for something as useless as karma |

| 17:52.51 | crashanddie | ali1234, maemo.org is already quite low on power as it is, and I'm feeling that the influx of users we're going to get with the marketing campaigns of the n900 isn't going to lower that, and I can't but think that doing nickname matching is going to be very expensive in terms of cpu hours |

| 18:39.12 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin900, tune until you find an empty station, then pick that. |

| 18:39.26 | javispedro | Shapeshifter: be happy then! S60 Java Runtime may be coming! |
| 18:39.27 | GeneralAntilles | mgedmin900, don't plug in USB, though, or you'll never be able to use the FM transmitter again. :roll: |

| 18:39.32 | suihkulokki | I'm sure people will use share on facebook/ovi/flickr feature on n900 more than they used mms on their previous phones =) |

| 18:44.12 | mgedmin900 | when media player drops connection to a radio station due to temporary network problems, it tunes to the next station |
| 18:44.18 | mgedmin900 | this irritates me |

| 18:45.42 | darktears | qwerty12_N810: any docs where dbus interfaces are documented? |
| 18:45.52 | zerojay | javispedro: Yeah, there's a lot of elements for what we need already in gstreamer. Just a matter of getting Media Player to play nice. |
| 18:46.05 | zerojay | I think. |

| 18:56.59 | dmj7261 | Patent's are ickey. |
| 18:57.06 | derf | eean: You realize Franuhofer is a German company, right? |
| 18:57.25 | derf | Software patents most _definitely_ exist in Europe. They're just not called software patents. |
| 18:57.36 | dmj7261 | derf: really? |
| 18:57.40 | derf | Really. |
| 18:57.43 | dmj7261 | ewww |
| 18:57.48 | absolute | I can understand copyright to an extent, but i'm not a patent fan at all |
| 18:58.01 | dmj7261 | I thought it was just us americans who were that stupid. |
| 18:58.11 | GeneralAntilles | Patents would be fine if they were reasonable. |
| 18:58.17 | GeneralAntilles | Just like copyright would be fine if it were reasonable. |
| 18:58.23 | GeneralAntilles | Both encourage creativity and innovation. |
| 18:58.24 | zash | absolute: I'm more like the reverse |
| 18:58.24 | eean | franuhofer has a US patent |
| 18:58.32 | derf | Even better, if they can't get something through the European patent system, they just refuse to license the US patents to people unless they also agree to pay licensing fees for any other locale where they want to distribute the product. |
| 18:58.37 | GeneralAntilles | While benefiting the public in the long term. |
| 18:58.53 | absolute | even copyright is really screwed up to an extent though, i agree |
| 18:58.54 | derf | So unless you want to completely exclude the US market, you still have to pay patent licensing fees in Europe for US patents. |
| 18:58.58 | lcuk | nahhh they dont |
| 18:59.02 | lcuk | is antipatent |
| 18:59.16 | dmj7261 | How about 6 month software patents? |
| 18:59.24 | dmj7261 | I would be fine with those. |
| 18:59.36 | lcuk | dmj7261, if they were free to get and easy to search without complication i would agree |
| 18:59.41 | dmj7261 | ...there would be little point in getting one though |
| 18:59.53 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, then where's anybody's incentive to innovate? |
| 18:59.57 | absolute | "you made something a little too close to something this company made, now you owe them money" |
| 18:59.59 | RST38h | it takes 6-24 months just to get us patent |
| 19:00.04 | lcuk | GeneralAntilles, im innovating |
| 19:00.04 | dmj7261 | By the time you could implement something, it would already be usable |
| 19:00.06 | lcuk | publically |
| 19:00.07 | eean | derf you have to pay them for your stuff you sell to the us |
| 19:00.18 | lcuk | im doing stuff that hasnt been done before |
| 19:00.25 | eean | that's different then payong them in europe |
| 19:00.34 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, why would I, as a private citizen, waste my time and money inventing something if as soon as I release it some Chinese manufacturer comes out with nearly the same product for half the price? |
| 19:00.35 | derf | eean: Have you actually read their license agreement? |
| 19:00.37 | lcuk | its open source ffs |
| 19:00.38 | dmj7261 | Patents cover tiny things that are really dumb |
| 19:00.40 | RST38h | lcuk: wouldnt be so sure about that |
| 19:01.04 | dmj7261 | WHo here has made a program (or website) that involves anything like a pop-up window? |
| 19:01.05 | GeneralAntilles | Patents aren't inherently bad or evil, it's just their current implementation that's messed up. |
| 19:01.17 | eean | yep |
| 19:01.24 | lcuk | RST38h, what is innovation tho |

| 19:30.12 | Solarion | aah |
| 19:30.32 | timeless_mbp | qwerty12_N810: this uses msgunfmt, it's a bit slow at first since it has to build the whole dictionary |
| 19:30.38 | Solarion | I presume that it's more intelligent than strings |

| 20:12.44 | kynky | w00t, what kind of unlimited? vodafone dont support skype, tmobile only support skype on their £25/month data plan , and that on top of normal phone plan (for instance tmboile standard unlimited plan is £5/month for 1gig d/l limit) |

| 20:30.23 | mgedmin | second, the error I get (in dmesg) is no symbol version for struct_module |
| 20:30.26 | tigert | kynky: the best shot is indeed taken with the camera you have with you |

| 21:13.01 | acidjazz | so is the ship date still not known? |
| 21:13.05 | acidjazz | crashanddie: lol |
| 21:13.14 | SpeedEvil | crashanddie: I take it you've googled for dissasembly info? |
| 21:13.19 | crashanddie | SpeedEvil, yup |
| 21:13.25 | acidjazz | crashhanddie; should i have ordered it from nokia.com ? |
| 21:13.27 | crashanddie | SpeedEvil, samsung r55, didn't find anything interesting |
| 21:13.43 | crashanddie | acidjazz, I dunno, but you could start by using tab or making an effort when spelling my nickname |
| 21:13.44 | SpeedEvil | crashanddie: is that a netbook - pre-netbook? |
| 21:13.45 | JamieBennett | Controversial but is anyone declining their developer offer? |

| 21:14.09 | crashanddie | JamieBennett, which one? |
| 21:14.09 | acidjazz | crashanddie: so you just basically think it wont ship anywhere near their estimated date |
| 21:14.39 | kynky | u can get nokia n900 for £310 sim free from nokia store |
| 21:14.39 | SpeedEvil | JamieBennett: In the UK it's actually not cheaper to take it up. (unless you have to keep your existing phone contract for some reason) |
| 21:14.39 | crashanddie | acidjazz, dunno, I'm just a troll pissed off because of his lack of sound, don't mind me |
| 21:14.44 | SpeedEvil | kynky: 310? From nokia? |
| 21:14.47 | acidjazz | kynky: in the US? u lie |
| 21:14.48 | JamieBennett | crashanddie the one that offers the n900 for a 'cheaper phone' |
| 21:15.03 | kynky | im in uk |
| 21:15.06 | crashanddie | JamieBennett, I'm not in the conversation |
| 21:15.17 | SpeedEvil | kynky: nokia.co.uk has it at 499 |

| 21:15.24 | ali1234 | crashanddie: i don't see it |
| 21:15.35 | kynky | with discount codes it goes to £310 |
| 21:15.37 | crashanddie | [22:13] <acidjazz> crashhanddie; should i have ordered it from nokia.com ? |
| 21:15.44 | JamieBennett | Seems very expensive compared to the 99$/£ that is was before |
| 21:15.52 | ali1234 | so you want to measure when people talk about other people? |
| 21:15.52 | luke-jr | Pandora is cheaper and more open ;) |

| 21:16.05 | crashanddie | ali1234, nvmd |
| 21:16.28 | acidjazz | Tentative delivery date: November 2009. |
| 21:16.34 | acidjazz | US site says end of October |
| 21:16.43 | kynky | i ordered mine a few hours ago, w00t ordered 3 a few hours ago, on same deal, told my friend at work, he ordered 1 too |
| 21:16.54 | absolute | I dunno, i saw that post on the "did your n900 ship today?" thread about getting all the discount codes, but when they listed the price in pounds, i figured it wasn't worth much to me, just kept my amazon usa order |
| 21:17.12 | acidjazz | looks like a scam |
| 21:17.22 | SpeedEvil | kynky: damn, that is cheap |
| 21:17.27 | kynky | mobilephonesdirect (which do sim free and contract deals) say end of october |
| 21:17.39 | acidjazz | absolute: i have an amazon usa order as well |
| 21:17.40 | aSIMULAtur | i should order mine too |
| 21:17.48 | acidjazz | i dont really care too much to save money i just want the phone now! :) |
| 21:17.54 | aSIMULAtur | me too! |
| 21:17.55 | SpeedEvil | kynky: what would be killer would be if you could apply that discount, and get a kickback off the contract too |
| 21:18.05 | kynky | SpeedEvil, i wasnt gonna get1, heard some1 here say discount codes, was straight onto google |

| 21:37.19 | crashanddie_ | lcuk, probably pulseaudio interfering |
| 21:37.30 | crashanddie_ | lcuk2, but even after killing pulseaudio, esd doesn't take over |
| 21:39.33 | paulo_ouriques | id like to know how hildon-application-manager lists the instaled applications. |
| 21:40.22 | timeless_mbp | paulo_ouriques: it's open source |
| 21:40.25 | timeless_mbp | you could read it |
| 21:40.39 | paulo_ouriques | i think that is not with dpkg |
| 21:40.41 | timeless_mbp | paulo_ouriques: do you want maemo4 or maemo5 ? |
| 21:40.43 | lcuk2 | paulo_ouriques, my guess, it makes a virtual list and tells gtk to draw them |

| 21:42.11 | crashanddie_ | paulo_ouriques, do you want the installed applications or available ones? |
| 21:42.22 | absolute | paulo_ouriques: it is simplyl a frontend for apt and dpkg |
| 21:42.23 | paulo_ouriques | installed |
| 21:42.24 | absolute | it uses them |
| 21:42.31 | crashanddie_ | paulo_ouriques, dpkg -l? |
| 21:42.31 | mgedmin | crashanddie_: why would you want to replace pulseaudio with esd? |
| 21:42.51 | timeless_mbp | mgedmin: old obsolete technology is great :! |
| 21:43.01 | Macer | haha |
| 21:43.06 | crashanddie_ | paulo_ouriques, dpkg --get-selection |
| 21:43.09 | crashanddie_ | paulo_ouriques, dpkg --get-selections |
| 21:43.20 | mgedmin | for more human-friendly output dpkg -l |
| 21:43.32 | crashanddie_ | mgedmin, you're late :P |
| 21:43.33 | mgedmin | for more human-friendly output that doesn't truncate package names arbitrarily, dpkg -l|cat |
| 21:43.48 | absolute | why pipe it into cat? |
| 21:43.55 | crashanddie_ | absolute, try it |
| 21:44.06 | timeless_mbp | dpkg will do sizing to terminal width otherwise |
| 21:44.12 | mgedmin | absolute: because dpkg checks if stdout is a tty and if so truncates it to fit $COLUMNS |
| 21:44.13 | timeless_mbp | which is usually annoying |
| 21:44.22 | absolute | ooooooh ok |
| 21:44.29 | absolute | that makes sense |
| 21:44.35 | absolute | that's a neat trick |
| 21:44.37 | absolute | i'mma remember that |
| 21:44.53 | mgedmin | has this little alias list-installed-packages=dpkg-query -W --showformat '${STATUS} ${PACKAGE}=${VERSION}n'|grep ' installed '|cut -d ' ' -f 4- |
| 21:45.10 | qwerty12_N810 | That is useful indeed, thanks mgedmin |
| 21:45.29 | mgedmin | needs dpkg-query which comes from I don't remember where |
| 21:45.38 | mgedmin | I use it to compare package versions on two different machines |
| 21:45.51 | mgedmin | for more casual use the =${VERSION} ought to be omitted |
| 21:46.24 | paulo_ouriques | but using dpkg -- get-selection i have all of installed app, and i want only the hildon-application-manager list. |
| 21:46.48 | mgedmin | paulo_ouriques: filter those that are from section: user/* |
| 21:46.54 | crashanddie_ | paulo_ouriques, it's based on the user/ section |
| 21:46.55 | mgedmin | you could do that with dpkg-query, I suppose |
| 21:47.34 | qwerty12_N810 | begins installing libgtk2.0-dev on the N900. Yay for the device having newer components than the SDK! |
| 21:47.40 | paulo_ouriques | how i filter it? |
| 21:47.43 | mgedmin | sighs at the incredible disk-grinding slowness of dpkg -S |
| 21:47.55 | mgedmin | oh, cool, dpkg-query is part of dpkg |

| 22:40.49 | pupnik_ | hahaha @ zerojay 's link |
| 22:41.09 | hardaker2 | I hate tcl/Tk and think the world should be moving to wxwidgets or, failing that, qt/gtk but i also think that gitk could use a serious UI improvement. It *looks* like it's written in Tk ;-) |
| 22:41.20 | kynky | tk supports native widgets now, and is only official toolkit for ruby, and tk support is there for practically every language, and works with lots of OSes |
| 22:41.21 | zerojay | I wouldn't wish tcl/tk on my worst enemy. |
| 22:41.30 | ali1234 | wxwidgets is horrible horrible programming environment |
| 22:41.39 | hardaker2 | ali1234: It's, um, odd... |
| 22:41.44 | hardaker2 | but I wouldn't say horrible. |
| 22:41.52 | w00t | zerojay: because i'm in a bit of a meta mood, thanks for the thanks! |
| 22:41.55 | ali1234 | qt is odd. qx is horrible. |
| 22:41.55 | w00t | ;) |
| 22:41.56 | hardaker2 | it takes a bit of getting used to, but once you are I actually think it's ok. |
| 22:42.28 | kynky | fltk2 looks good |
| 22:42.29 | hardaker2 | I'm always amazed at how impossible people make GUI languages. Have you ever seen one that doesn't suck? |
| 22:42.33 | kynky | but gtk and qt are the big2 |
| 22:42.57 | ali1234 | tkinter doesn't suck, but that might be just cos of python hiding all the suckyness |
| 22:43.00 | w00t | everything has rough edges, hardaker2 |
| 22:43.04 | ali1234 | but yeah, most gui toolkits are a nightmare |

| 22:43.51 | kynky | if ui was easy, lots of ppl would be out of job, but now a big push to webapps at the mo |
| 22:43.59 | hardaker2 | for 99% of the GUI stuff you need you shouldn't have to learn what a packer even is. It should be the default to be able to create simple windows. |
| 22:44.40 | w00t | hardaker2: the UI doesn't know that you want stuff top left aligned with the button on the right hand side of the textbox |
| 22:44.48 | w00t | you need to tell it that |
| 22:44.58 | w00t | but declarative UI (for example) or qt creator makes that process a lot easier anyway |
| 22:45.01 | hardaker2 | actually, the web shows you that it's simplicity in language is what has helped it the most. <form> <input type="..."></input>. *that* is how simple everything should be in it's default form. |

| 22:50.57 | w00t | it'd be quite possible from looking at the video |
| 22:51.04 | w00t | scale items in a graphicsscene |
| 22:51.35 | w00t | I was playing with similar tricks earlier for qmantle's appswitcher too |
| 22:51.38 | lcuk | why scale? |
| 22:51.49 | lcuk | the same widget might be shown on screen at any one time in more than one size |
| 22:51.57 | w00t | sure, and I'm sure you can do that |
| 22:52.17 | w00t | but you do already have the issue of going from having a huge overview of different bits and pieces to zooming in on one widget, yes? |
| 22:52.29 | lcuk | no |
| 22:52.33 | lcuk | no scaling going on |
| 22:52.40 | w00t | uh |
| 22:52.50 | w00t | so you're not zooming in to look at the widget? |
| 22:52.51 | lcuk | the engine just says "render you (800,480) into this space here (100,100) |
| 22:52.58 | w00t | that's exactly what scaling is |
| 22:53.03 | lcuk | and it just always does the best it can |
| 22:53.08 | lcuk | it doesnt scale the widget |
| 22:53.11 | lcuk | it just draws it as required |
| 22:53.24 | lcuk | no cos scaling implied resize signals |
| 22:54.25 | w00t | no, it doesn't |
| 22:54.32 | w00t | it's the graphical item you're scaling |
| 22:54.33 | w00t | not the widget |

| 23:41.12 | pupnik_ | hmm |
| 23:41.21 | pupnik_ | we could do virtual graffitti |
| 23:41.36 | pupnik_ | agps + orientation and device learns orientation of a wall |
| 23:41.48 | b-man17 | lcuk: the avi´s arn´t any longer than this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuBHDnpSFE0 ;) |
| 23:41.50 | pupnik_ | you could leave messages for people scrawled on fridges, desktops, walls |
| 23:42.00 | pupnik_ | and they would have to hold device up to it to read it |
| 23:42.17 | ali1234 | except n900 doesn't have a compass |
| 23:42.36 | b-man17 | gps can fit that (kinda) |

| 23:42.46 | absolute | close enough :) |
| 23:42.51 | lcuk | pupnik, cheap enough to just but simple n800/smartq devices up and use liqbase |
| 23:42.59 | absolute | if you really need a compass, you're not gonna be relying on a phone anyways |
| 23:43.01 | lcuk | put |
| 23:43.45 | absolute | I'm buying a military surplus lensatic compass on friday :) |
| 23:43.47 | Xisdibik | lcuk, yea i understand its any length you want (unless he puts a filesize cap) |
| 23:43.56 | Xisdibik | but like how long is the generic nokia one <<< doesnt have a Nxxx |
| 23:44.06 | ali1234 | not long |
| 23:44.08 | b-man17 | absolute: nice |
| 23:44.34 | ali1234 | but i have to wonder if i replace it with a 1 frame video, will it boot quicker? (like that longstanding bug with kde startup sound) |
| 23:45.01 | absolute | military surplus is good for random outdoorsy things |
| 23:45.11 | lcuk | ali1234, it may do |
| 23:45.14 | lcuk | just disable all |
| 23:45.17 | lcuk | will be better |
| 23:45.47 | lcuk | if the device can avoid reading and rendering that video - it will obviously finish all its tasks quicker than if it was working |
| 23:45.57 | ali1234 | obviously |
| 23:46.02 | lcuk | whether the boot will appear to be quicker is another matter |
| 23:46.04 | ali1234 | but does it even play it asynchronously? |
| 23:46.15 | lcuk | or whether it will just sit idle expecting something |
| 23:46.21 | lcuk | dunno |
| 23:46.24 | ali1234 | or does it stop doing everything else for the duration of that clip? |
| 23:46.35 | lcuk | it might be at a point in the normal boot sequence where theres a pause anyway |
| 23:46.46 | lcuk | shrugs |

| 23:56.42 | luke-jr | USA does not have SIM cards period :/ |
| 23:57.21 | iei | period? |
| 23:57.45 | absolute | wtf? |
| 23:57.48 | absolute | says who |
| 23:58.31 | absolute | unless this is a fake sim card, you've been lied to |
