00:00.25pupnikno user/gamez yet
00:00.57VDVsxqwerty12_N810, I thnik py2deb is valid, and we thumb it down , eheh
00:02.07innocivwhao.. the n900 has about 12 hours of battery life with normal usage like web browsing?  That's a lot.
00:02.12javispedroi still don't know if it's a user/ package
00:02.14lcukGAN900, you said before about the unsightly corners on rounded buttons in app manager
00:02.28lcuksame occurs on device in h-a-m when you taphold on an app
00:02.30qwerty12_N810VDVsx: Still not sure what purpose it serves in user/. I think it's more for apps like his PyGTKEditor
00:03.19lcuki dont think its a user package
00:03.22lcukit has no ui
00:03.23innocivanyone know who'll carry the n900 in the US?
00:03.25VDVsxqwerty12_N810, neither I, gonna send a follow up to the -ml with some thoughts about the marathon
00:03.27lcukit is right to be in extras
00:03.33lcukbut not right as a user app
00:03.44lbtVDVsx: any more testing tomorrow?
00:04.07lbtpopped in earlier but then had desktop issues :(
00:04.19VDVsxlcuk, so you only can install it via xterminal in your opinion ?
00:04.36VDVsxlbt, you can do it at any time ;)
00:04.44javispedroI agree with lcuk.
00:04.49lcukVDVsx, it makes sense
00:04.58qwerty12_N810VDVsx: It is rather fitting that way, considering that its only usage is gonna be via the terminal...
00:05.02lcuki wish however there was a proper way to promote to -sdk or -tools
00:05.13lcukwhich would serve khertan better - since hes a developer
00:05.18qwerty12_N810lcuk: *shudder*
00:05.26GAN900VDVsx, yes.
00:05.29javispedroyeah, we need a "stable" -tools repo
00:05.35lcuklol
00:05.41GAN900timeless_mbp, user/system
00:05.46javispedrofor packages that do not make sense in device but do in dev environments.
00:05.52lcuki would like to fully put a proper git there
00:06.11VDVsxGAN900, and something like this: http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-testing_free_armel/python2.5-py2deb/0.5.1-2/
00:06.16VDVsxwhat do you think
00:06.22VDVsxno GUI, no icon...
00:06.37VDVsxyou can use it only via terminal
00:06.49lcukend users might want to send .debs to each other!
00:07.09lcukawww damn, they couldnt install em anyway
00:07.27GAN900VDVsx, it's fine.
00:07.29timeless_mbpGAN900: hrm, i think i'm already using that :)
00:07.40GAN900timeless_mbp, you are.
00:08.07GAN900VDVsx, I think it should be explained in the long description, though.
00:08.07qwerty12_N810VDVsx: If it helps, I haven't thumbed it down...
00:08.09timeless_mbpqwerty12_N810 / GAN900: if you can figure out why the engb icon isn't working in the .deb, write me an email (or patch)
00:08.51VDVsxqwerty12_N810, you bastard!!!
00:09.04qwerty12_N810timeless_mbp: Patch what, exactly? I don't have the source package's debian/control :)
00:09.18timeless_mbpqwerty12_N810: there's a control file in the package
00:09.25timeless_mbpdpkg-deb is your friend
00:09.30qwerty12_N810VDVsx: Aww, don't say that, it makes me think you're pissed off at me
00:09.48timeless_mbpdpkg-deb -e
00:10.17qwerty12_N810dpkg-deb -e, actually, but point taken
00:10.27qwerty12_N810Er, yeah, sorry

00:16.09qwerty12_N810Is there a "Bugzilla for retards" book anywhere? I really need a copy
00:16.26lcuki lent my copy to VDVsx, he hasnt given it back yet

00:20.05lcukwhat is the best way to get a view of folder size
00:20.48timeless_mbplcuk: were you another of those people who wanted the engb variant of my package?
00:20.51timeless_mbpbecause it's now available
00:21.01lcuki see
00:21.06lcukim trying to make space to install
00:21.12timeless_mbplol
00:21.17timeless_mbpthat's pretty sad, you know
00:21.24timeless_mbpunless i screwed up in packaging it
00:21.31lcuknahh its me
00:21.36timeless_mbpqwerty12_N810: is the engb one less optified?
00:21.37lcukive been in extras testing all day
00:21.47lcukinstalled prettyy much everyhthing on page 1
00:21.48qwerty12_N810No, blame VDVsx and his testing marathon
00:21.57lcukVDVsx, we need to find a faster way
00:22.04lcukand we need support on the device when we do
00:22.13GAN900It was all just a ploy to ruin everybody's N900.
00:22.19qwerty12_N810blames VDVsx for everything
00:22.24lcukits just to disjointed to install and test and comment and rate apps
00:22.39lcukyour strong pushing actually helped
00:22.45lcukbut it was still a slog
00:23.06timeless_mbphrm, it looks like it might be less optified
00:23.23lcuk"less optified"
00:23.24VDVsxlcuk, yeah, people should do it voluntarily for the app that they use
00:23.41lcukVDVsx, its not that
00:23.44timeless_mbpno
00:23.47lcukits doing it and redoing it and redoing it
00:23.58lcukthe same thing
00:24.02lcukjaffa is right
00:24.07VDVsxand perhaps we should establish a testing team, just to check the small things
00:24.07lcukhe made an edge case bug fix
00:24.15VDVsxlcuk, totally agreed
00:24.15lcukgood idea!
00:24.22lcukVERY good idea
00:24.34VDVsxthe problem here is the package interface :(
00:24.37lcukkeep the -testing chan open
00:24.46qwerty12_N810How many times are people expected to thumb up the same program, let alone a minor update?
00:24.51lcukand have the participants working on things
00:25.12lcuk10 friends per patch
00:25.18GAN900We need to do this all through h-a-m
00:25.27lcukits not even that
00:25.32lcukcos once it goes into extras
00:25.35GAN900Red Pill should be a package tester's mode.
00:25.39lcukthere wont be 10 people watching it in -testing
00:26.05lcukVDVsx, what i learnt more than anything today
00:26.12lcukwas about the actual failure states for an app
00:26.21lcukthe general reasons for not accepting
00:26.26lcukin a meaningful manner

00:27.06timeless_mbpdid people actively thumb down packages?
00:27.08lcukyou are getting them now!
00:27.22VDVsxbut we really need to follow the rules if we want good SW in extras ;)
00:27.25lcukfor some serious problems yes, but on the whole we maintained status quo
00:27.27timeless_mbpfwiw, internally, we have an extension for geolocation for microb
00:27.28VDVsxmost of the things are easy fix
00:27.32lcukVDVsx, i agree
00:27.33timeless_mbpi'm supposed to review it this week
00:27.45lcuk:D NICE timeless
00:27.50lcukthats been requested quite often
00:28.14qwerty12_N810timeless_mbp: Say that it is awesome so that it actually sees the light of day :)
00:28.23lcukVDVsx, i will do a writeup later, but i need one thing
00:28.27timeless_mbpqwerty12_N810: um
00:28.34lcukthe full log of todays testing session into the wiki
00:28.44timeless_mbpthe dev in question has added or reviewed code that enables arbitrary code execution on a number of occasions
00:28.55timeless_mbpthere's no way i'm going to just say "it's awesome"
00:29.28lcukVDVsx, with the wiki, can you make html bookmarks   wiki.maemo.org/testingsession#osm2go    etc ?
00:29.46lcuktimeless, gulp!
00:29.50qwerty12_N810How was I to know? Although, after hearing that, I still stick with my original idea: Say that it is awesome

00:40.09innocivCell phone plans and such can be really sucky in the USA
00:40.21qwerty12_N810SpeedEvil: 0.o
00:40.39lcukinnociv, note, the n900 is not just a phone.  its much much more and may require taming
00:41.08qwerty12_N810innociv: He means do not install anything which has the prefix of "liq"
00:41.24innocivlcuk, well I use linux.
00:41.24lcukagrees with that
00:41.37innocivI want a tiny laptop, not a phone
00:41.55innocivI rarely make calls.  I instant message, use web apps, surf the web.
00:41.58lcukinnociv, note, the n900 is not just a tiny laptop.  its much much more and may require taming
00:42.44qwerty12_N810timeless_mbp: It's interesting how a different set of strings can make the device feel "different" :)
00:42.49lcukhuggles n900 and throws cat @ qwerty12_N810
00:43.06innocivAnyone in the USA getting one?
00:43.10timeless_mbpqwerty12_N810: enus v. enus1, enus1 v. engb1, or engb v engb1 ?

00:43.51lcukdid you get a chance to go to any of the nokia events
00:43.57innocivcan it integrate into the calling features of the phone?
00:43.58innocivNope
00:44.05timeless_mbpqwerty12_N810: where's my fingerable zenity? :)
00:44.12lcukive not done any voip
00:44.25lcukbut i cant tell you its got the best damned messaging centre ive ever used
00:45.35lcuklook at that, normally you wake up with a headache and lose a few hours
00:45.48qwerty12_N810timeless_mbp: I keep putting that one off because it uses GtkUiBuilder and I have no experience with it. But I guess I can work around parts :\
00:45.52practisevoodoohas anyone got mer install on their n810?
00:46.00lcuksteve ballmer does the same and he loses a decade.
00:46.00lcukhttp://slashdot.org/story/09/10/31/2134237/Microsofts-Lost-Decade?art_pos=1
00:46.24innocivlcuk, yeah but that's with a cell service and not jsut 3g.  I'm curious if voip can behave like the normal calling ..
00:47.08lcukdunno, anyone else use voip?
00:47.19timeless_mbpinnociv: it does
00:47.24timeless_mbpi've used it w/ google talk and skype
00:47.27timeless_mbpit feels the same
00:47.38timeless_mbpalthough, using anything on a train is basically not going to work
00:47.49timeless_mbpbeen, there, tried Cell and GTalk over Cell
00:47.55timeless_mbpthe Cell Network sucked, so all calls died
00:48.05timeless_mbpsome in more disturbing ways than other

01:08.43GeneralAntillesinnociv, I think the web'n'walk plan with a cheap voice plan may work.
01:08.52GeneralAntillesBut a data-only plan in the US is not a workable proposition.
01:09.25innocivweb'n'walk?
01:09.34innocivwhy isn't it workable?
01:09.42GeneralAntillesIt's their cheap data plan you can add onto feature phones.
01:09.56GeneralAntillesBecause nobody offers a reasonably priced data-only option.
01:10.36innociv$40 is fairly reasonable.  Would arther it be $30
01:10.45innocivBut you look at iphone, that's $100 a month, completely unreasonable.
01:11.55GeneralAntillesI think T-Mobile's new unlimited plans are somewhat reasonable.

01:16.56ccookelcuk: what were you testing and how did igt go?
01:17.12lcuktesting the packages in maemo-testing respository of course :P

01:17.48lcukand download, give them a once over
01:18.00lcukand rate them and discuss things you notice
01:18.04innocivtoo much D:
01:18.08lcukwe did a whole marathon
01:18.09ccookeokay, will do.
01:18.22ccookealthough not right now :-)
01:18.35lcukdont worry, thats what we were doin today
01:18.43innocivHas anyone had luck going in an getting a discount on a plan?
01:18.48lcukreally interesting to see the sorts of things make apps fail
01:18.52ccookewe have to pack tonight - our train back to London is earlyish tomorrow
01:19.21ccookeyeah, it is.
01:19.51lcukhow was the wedding?
01:20.02ccookesome bugs can be seriously funny - if they're odd enough and easy to fi :-)
01:20.06ccookefix
01:20.29innocivSome bugs can make you bust holes in your wall with your face.
01:20.43lcukit was good to see whole classes of similar errors and to think about how to prevent them in future
01:20.47lcukor at least highlight them
01:21.03ccookeit was fine. church do, then a reception, then a party
01:21.14wjtlcuk: got a summary somewhere of the classes of error?
01:21.26lcuknot yet, i havent slept
01:21.30ccookeit's strange to not be wearing all black, though :-)
01:21.40lcukand VDVsx has the logs of the actual convo
01:21.56lcukwas just things like the icon being missing initially
01:21.58ccookeinnociv: those are the ones I find most amusing
01:22.06wjtheh
01:22.07lcukthe opt stuff and how its being handled
01:22.26ccookeworking with omputers has given me a fine appreciation of train-wrecks.
01:22.34innocivThen 3 hours later you realized you forgot an "if" or didn't have the right capitalization.
01:22.59lcukheh
01:23.09lcuki dont reuse variable names with wrong case ;)
01:23.13ccookeor missed a single character in a different file.
01:23.13lcukthats evil code
01:23.48lcuki think i can count on one hand the number of variables or functions in liqbase which are upper case
01:24.09ccookerealises he should pack and sleep

01:28.48lcukccooke, book style, or laptop style with a virtual kb on one

05:27.44yigaltbh
05:29.26GeneralAntillesyigal, yeah, I liked that about the N800, too.
05:29.41GeneralAntillesI type faster on the N900 finger keyboard than the N800's. :)
05:29.49GeneralAntillesYou really don't notice the difference.
05:30.05GeneralAntillesSo, my little recommendation to you is that you actually try the N900 before you condemn it.
05:30.15GeneralAntilles~ping
05:30.15infobot~pong
05:33.46yigalha, I'm not condemning it as a device for others with slightly different needs, however I find the n800's screen to be too small and hope that in the next few months I'll be able to purchase a linux or linux made device with roughly 5"-7".  I like to take notes in class with my n800, these are graduate classes in physics and the n800 serves me well with xournal, but something slightly larger is better for my needs.
05:34.27yigalalso completing homework assignments on the tablet would be my desire

05:41.44yigaldmj726: ya, I'm waiting for the eee model after their initial 8.9" touchbook
05:42.01dmj726I know that you can add one yourself already
05:42.18dmj726(about 70 USD on ebay)
05:42.32yigaldmj726: but I think again this size range of 8-9" is a bit too large for my needs, I want something between 5-7"
05:43.00yigaland it's all a matter of $ for that size range
05:43.09dmj726then again, one of the main reasons to have a netbook is the rather beefy hardware keyboard.
05:43.38dmj726Yes, you can write a novel on one.
05:44.25yigaldmj726: right, but an external keyboard gives me the same usage out of a smaller device than a netbook
05:44.43dmj726maybe something else would be better for you then
05:45.06yigaldmj726: yes, I already have a netbook, and an n800, it's in between these 2 size I'm looking for
05:45.13dmj726to me the ideal device combo is desktop, netbook, awesome linux smartphone
05:45.40dmj726I can live without the notebook and the MID.
05:46.11yigalI guess it is halloween in the states at least, for the words I have just seen scrolled on #maemo
05:46.31yigaldmj726: different needs for different folks, it's cool
05:47.26yigaldmj726: it's so nice having nothing other than my tablet and the book I'm studying with me (+ cell phone of course)
05:51.12dmj726there are potential advantages to that
05:51.51dmj726of course it's nice to be able stuff a small laptop in one's pocket

05:52.28dmj726yes I can do that with my eeepc 900
05:52.36yigalexcept for the ticket price
05:52.39yigaldmj726: lol
05:52.44dmj726how much?

05:53.15yigaldmj726: I can part with the $, but it will hurt
05:53.20tlirKMplayer can't play subtitles
05:53.40dmj726It doesn't fit everywhere, but it fits in cargo pants and a couple of shorts in the upper pockets
05:53.42yigaltlir: ~/.mplayer/config ?
05:54.13yigaldmj726: figured, and you've plopped a touch screen on it, right?
05:54.13tliroh wait, stupid me I didn't copy the subtitles lol
05:54.14tlira sec
05:54.31dmj726no, but i was going to
05:54.43dmj726that money is earmarked for n900 at the moment
05:55.13yigaldmj726: I'm glad the rx-51 fits into the needs of other's
05:55.53dmj726I was a bit disappointed with the small screen size and the lack of usb host mode, but otherwise it looks very nice.
05:56.14dmj726To be honest I've been comparing it more to iphone and android.
05:56.24yigaldmj726: those features are exactly the sort of thing I would want on a new portable device, in any event
05:56.47dmj726From a linux hacker's point of view it beats the living daylights out of the iphone.
05:57.50yigaldmj726: android is such a disappointment imo
05:57.55yigalso far at least
05:58.26yigalif I hadn't had the n800 prior to the g1 I might have thought a bit better of the device, maybe
05:58.30dmj726I used to be excited about android
05:58.58dmj726before I saw that you actually could have better (aka maemo 5 on the n900)
05:59.07yigaldmj726: I was so excited I'm using the 1st mass produced android phone, the excitement wore of very quickly for me

11:42.17Jaffahomeasvs_: The Diablo SDK is not an emulator, nor a full-blown environment of the device. It contains the necessary parts to develop applications.
11:42.45homeasvs_Jaffa, so it's normal not to be able to install applications, or have applets ?

11:45.22Jaffahomeasvs_: correct.
11:45.35derfhomeasvs_: The scratchbox environment is pretty limited for testing anything specific to the Maemo environment. Expect to spend a lot of time testing on the actual device.

12:43.21Anwarboy11The Intel 80286[1], introduced on February 1, 1982, (originally named 80286, and also called iAPX 286 in the programmer's manual) was an x86 16-bit microprocessor with 134,000 transistors. It was the first Intel processor that could run all the software written for its predecessor[2] .
12:43.21Anwarboy11It was widely used in IBM PC compatible computers during the mid 1980s to early 1990s, starting when IBM first used it in the IBM PC/AT in 1984.

14:37.08RST38hOh. Shit.
14:37.14RST38hSorry :)
14:37.28lcukjaffa of course, but if he leaves it in the foreground it will still drain
14:37.30JaffaRST38h: Sometimes iNES gets itself stuck (usually playing Super Mario and dying; I can't restart a game and it stays in a demo mode)
14:37.33RST38hJaffa: BTW, the subscription stuff does not seem to be active now
14:37.35lcuk"accelerometer events" ?
14:37.42lcukthere is a "moo!" event in the system?
14:37.43Jaffalcuk: Not if it listened for screen lock.
14:37.47SpeedEvillols.
14:38.01RST38hJaffa: This sounds more like the bug with the game, so exiting iNES and getting back in should fix it
14:38.01SpeedEvilThe n900 keyboard is possibly more tactile than the speccy.
14:38.02javispedroSpeedEvil: see, were trying to outcompete the iphone here.
14:38.07RST38hJaffa: Or "Reset" from the menu
14:38.16RST38hSpeedEvil: Not really
14:38.23JaffaRST38h: Reset didn't. It felt like a keyboard input issue, but that's just a guess.
14:38.26SpeedEvilRST38h: well - the zx81 certainly.
14:38.29javispedroat least it's more tacticle
14:38.32javispedrothan that, yes :)
14:38.35javispedroyou read my mind :)
14:38.46Jaffalcuk: Anyway, you can get notified about drastic changes in orientation, that would be sufficient for moobox :-p
14:39.24lcukmoobox uses complex equations to dynamically simulate the high resolution moobox implementation
14:39.31lcukanytihng else just feels wrong imho
14:39.33VDVsxlol removed the bat and it's working again, no need to flash
14:39.45RST38hJaffa: Sounds pretty weird, given how insulated Maemo input code is from the game itself

14:40.13RST38hJaffa: That is the original Mario World 1?
14:40.21JaffaRST38h: Super Mario Bros
14:40.36Jaffawill do some more testing and then thumb iNES up.
14:40.37RST38hOk, I will play it for a while, let us see what is going on

14:43.54lcukok moobox uses a 200ms callback

15:34.50lcukthere is

15:50.23javispedrobut consider this: you stop drawing to the screen on focusout.
15:50.27lcukand adding new events to gtk would be hairy
15:50.40javispedrothe dashboard appears. your drawing is out of date.
15:50.46lcukof course
15:50.50lcukthats the same issue clock has
15:50.54javispedroif dashboard appearing would signal libosso or something like that
15:50.56lcukit just takes refreshes on the apps schedule
15:50.57sp3000so you need "visible"
15:51.02lcukthere is no right or wrong way
15:51.10javispedroyou could start the drawing loop again
15:51.13sp3000has no idea how this stuff works though :)
15:51.21javispedroi think I'll file a brainstorm about this.
15:51.33lcukjavispedro, its app specific
15:51.41lcukthe clock needs to update after passing the minute mark
15:51.44javispedroits app specific how to handle the event
15:51.47lcukyour app might be right to refresh all the time

15:52.37qwerty12andre__: In your opinion, where would be the best place to file a bug against xev (an N900-specific one)?
15:52.47lcukive got 2 clocks in liqbase, one updates on the minute, the other updates on the second
15:52.51javispedroyep. so, the clock app just draws time once when receiving the "dashboard-shown" signal, and sets up a 1 minute timer for redrawing it, cancelling the timer when the dashboard-hidden signal fires
15:53.01lcuknahhh
15:53.06lcukit keeps the timer always
15:53.11lcukdoesnt actually need to listen to events
15:53.16lcukjust needs to redraw every minute
15:53.19javispedroa emu like mine starts drawing frames when the dashboard-shown signal fires, and stops drawing them when the dashboard-hidden signal fires.

15:54.36sp3000maybe they could get away with waking up 1/min, maybe not
15:54.45lcuksome could
15:54.47lcuksome cant
15:54.49sp3000I don't think they could get away with drawing 1/min when not visible :)
15:54.53lcuksome dont need a wakeup at all
15:55.10javispedrosp3000: 1 wakeup per minute is sane
15:55.13lcukif its not visible changing the label will not really do much
15:55.19lcukgtk should handle that internally
15:55.47lcukcurses his network
15:55.51javispedrolcuk: the issue is not the CPU usage of just redrawing the label, but the power consumption of just waking the CPU, even if only runs a single instruction
15:55.58lcukeven with wired connection for the last mile it keeps dropping :(
15:56.04andre__qwerty12, core -> x-server maybe? shrug :-P
15:56.05javispedro(in the case of timers at least)
15:56.12lcuknahhh javispedro

19:33.35kpelI don't see this as a problem specific to the MAemo5 upgrade. It's more of a product support issue. After two years N800 is officially dead :(

19:36.18GeneralAntillesAndril, then you're deluded.

19:36.56javispedrothis is a "me too" race, and having multitouch is currently "top notch".
19:36.58Andrillike i said personally - i know after i dump my n810 i won't go that path again
19:37.02Firebirdhow does one test multitouch on a PC SDK...
19:37.12GeneralAntilleskonttori, you can't get away with the Symbian-style support with a Linux device.
19:37.14Stskeepsi still think the best argument against MP only operation is the fact developers has to develop on a PC SDK..

21:04.43Firebirdniqt_, if I recall, emails were only sent to those with 200+ karma
21:05.17RST38hVDVsx: The only significant change is to the power-save code. All the new versions I have moved into -Testing today save power aggressively, you can lock the tablet and forget about them running
21:05.52RST38hVDVsx: You can test this by running the device in development mode (the kbd backlight will indicate cpu activity)
21:06.01VDVsxRST38h, ok, so no changed in UI and usability stuff ?
21:06.24RST38hOtherwise, it is the same iNES. Well, the virtual keyboard in FamiBASIC is a bit bigger to server fingers better
