| 00:46.35 | jeremiah | I don't understand why |
| 00:46.44 | jeremiah | I mean, maemo.org is open and we have mer. |
| 00:46.49 | jeremiah | So why did they fork? |
| 00:47.27 | lcuk3 | jeremiah, mamona existed before mer. |

| 00:47.49 | jeremiah | I had no idea. |
| 00:47.49 | GeneralAntilles | Because it diverges WAY away from Maemo. |

| 01:26.48 | GeneralAntilles | but I didn't have a useful rootfs at the time. |
| 01:26.54 | GeneralAntilles | pupnik, here they're less numerous. ;) |
| 01:26.58 | johnxx | ah, bummer. that's 128MB RAM isn't it? |
| 01:27.07 | GeneralAntilles | pupnik, and here I can bring the banhammer if I really need to. ;) |
| 01:27.11 | GeneralAntilles | johnxx, yes. |
| 01:28.28 | johnxx | though anyways, I figured you might get a kick out of this: I was thinking about sticking beagleboard into the base of an imac g4 along with enough laptop batteries to keep it running unplugged for a while |
| 01:28.53 | GeneralAntilles | johnxx, I considered doing that with one of my Samsungs for a while. |
| 01:29.01 | GeneralAntilles | Problem is the framebuffer limit. :\ |
| 01:29.15 | johnxx | framebufer limit? ah, in 3D mode? |
| 01:29.34 | GeneralAntilles | Er, DVI transceiver limit, I should say. |
| 01:29.52 | GeneralAntilles | 1280x720 being incredibly optimistic and all that. |
| 01:30.08 | johnxx | I was thinking 15" imac |
| 01:30.28 | GeneralAntilles | Yeah |
| 01:30.34 | GeneralAntilles | That'd be slick. |
| 01:30.34 | johnxx | omap3 seems optimized to hit 800x480, so I figure even 1024x768 is pushing it |

| 01:30.50 | pupnik | id like a broken NEXTslab |

| 01:38.10 | johnxx | ahahaha...Mer wouldn't be nearly as far along without nokia and ubuntu |

| 01:39.12 | johnxx | I thought debian would be an ok desktop too, circa ~1.5 years ago |

| 01:44.27 | johnxx | ah, and 3) Know when to stop optimizing for space/memory savings |
| 01:46.27 | GeneralAntilles | likes to hear people justifying Android's architecture with that argument. |
| 01:46.41 | johnxx | space/memory savings? |
| 01:46.45 | johnxx | lot of good it did them |
| 01:46.45 | GeneralAntilles | I'm envisioning some pretty fun things this time next year. |
| 01:46.49 | johnxx | it's more hungry than maemo5 |
| 01:46.55 | GeneralAntilles | Having to fit it on a "phone" |
| 01:47.16 | GeneralAntilles | 'course, Nokia managed to ship a real Linux stack on less than half the hardware in 2005. . . . |
| 01:47.39 | johnxx | yup, and one of the biggest memory hogs of maemo4 seems to be hildon-desktop |
| 01:48.00 | johnxx | I honestly don't think maemo5 h-d is much (any?) heavier than maemo4 h-d |
| 01:48.05 | johnxx | (in terms of memory footprint) |
| 01:48.16 | GeneralAntilles | Why would it be? |
| 01:48.31 | GeneralAntilles | Arguably it's got fewer applets to handle by default. . . . |
| 01:48.40 | johnxx | well, for starters it's actually doing more stuff |
| 01:48.49 | GeneralAntilles | Ah, right, architecture changes. |
| 01:48.54 | johnxx | it's managing windows too (the wm lib is actually in its memory space) |
| 01:50.04 | GeneralAntilles | I can't wait to see it on N8x0. |
| 01:50.25 | johnxx | without 3D accell it's pretty slow :) |
| 01:50.42 | GeneralAntilles | Why is it that everything Maemo-related is always delayed. . . . |
| 01:50.57 | GeneralAntilles | "Oh, yeah, we'll have these out to you in a couple weeks" |
| 01:51.24 | GeneralAntilles | But if we're looking at OS2008HE levels of performance once it's accelerated. . . . |
| 01:51.30 | johnxx | eh, people get busy, people get interrupted with higher priority tasks |
| 01:51.47 | GeneralAntilles | People need to provide more realistic delivery dates. |
| 01:51.59 | GeneralAntilles | Or more nebulous ones. . . . |
| 01:52.37 | johnxx | GeneralAntilles, the latter :) |
| 01:52.42 | johnxx | you've worked iT, right? |
| 01:52.48 | GeneralAntilles | Indeed |
| 01:54.06 | GeneralAntilles | wants to see Mer surpass Android in number of Engadget articles. |
| 01:54.17 | johnxx | we don't need more articles yet I think |
| 01:54.32 | johnxx | we need a lower barrier to entry for people to submit a 2-line patch |
| 01:55.06 | johnxx | anyways, the IT thing: ever said "I can do that in 3 hours" then got interrupted by a T1 outage, a last minute project and a broken printer? |
| 01:56.16 | GeneralAntilles | Does having to help process the Harry Potter delivery count? ;) |
| 01:59.16 | GeneralAntilles | Even so, a quick status update would be nice. |
| 01:59.37 | johnxx | yeah, but I totally understand their position |
| 01:59.46 | johnxx | anyways, it won't be really blocking us for a while |

| 07:48.20 | Lupu | My university had one Linux computer near the main entrance, only for quick access to the schedules(of classes, whatever you call those) |
| 07:48.22 | RedPenguin | My local community college is going to drop Novell class and everybody besides me seems to hate it |
| 07:48.35 | dmj726 | We have several Red Hat labs. |
| 07:48.57 | Lupu | The problem was, it was maintained by a wannabe-IT-guru, an egocentric person with very little knowledge of the things she was teaching about. As long as no-one asked questions, she seemed credible. |
| 07:49.40 | dmj726 | We're actually required to use the linux computers in some classes. |
| 07:49.46 | RedPenguin | The community college had one Linux class that was nothing but basics, no good stuff at all |
| 07:49.48 | Lupu | The computer was running an ancient variant of RedHat, and got the blame for any network problems |
| 07:50.24 | Lupu | It was quite hilarious really, as it was the first Linux experience for many people, I overheard one complaining "Yeah, that's how LINUX works!!" when he couldn't check his schedule for the day(network problems). |
| 07:50.26 | RedPenguin | It was literally, "The cp command does this & the mv command does this" and some explaination of the file system |
| 07:50.35 | Lupu | The whole network was down for hours that morning. |
| 07:50.38 | dmj726 | One of my classes required writing bits into the linux kernel |
| 07:51.18 | dmj726 | seriously? Just bash commands? |
| 07:51.40 | RedPenguin | That and some explainations of how the file system works and how the kernel versions work like 2.6 vs 2.4 |
| 07:52.08 | dmj726 | I wouldn't touch 2.4 with a 10 foot pole. |
| 07:52.31 | dmj726 | The family's Sony television set excepted. |
| 07:52.41 | RedPenguin | What made me laugh was every class the instructor asked if anyone used or uses Linux, I was always the only one who spoke up |
| 07:52.59 | dmj726 | *every* class? |
| 07:53.20 | dmj726 | sounds like she wasn't very persuasive. |
| 07:53.32 | RedPenguin | I meant every class that the instructor asked, like in Operating Systems and Linux |
| 07:53.51 | RedPenguin | She didn't ask in Novell, because not too many people use Novell Netware at home I don't think |
| 07:54.00 | dmj726 | ah, different classes, not like three times a week |
| 07:54.09 | RedPenguin | no, glad I explained that |
| 07:54.31 | dmj726 | I'm rarely the only one. |
| 07:55.01 | RedPenguin | Two of my friends like Linux, but they constantly want my help when they break it |
| 07:55.16 | RedPenguin | Then I fix it for them, then they break it again or reinstall the OS without telling me |

| 07:56.59 | dmj726 | Mac users can be tricky though. |

| 11:17.35 | timeless | speaking of which ;) |
| 11:18.56 | qwerty12 | timeless: What window, exactly, would I get Zenity's dialogs transient for? |
| 11:23.07 | timeless | ideally we'd set up zenity to take an arg/env var of an xwindow id |
| 11:23.39 | timeless | for control panel,my cpa would sniff x11 to find the cpa window and pass that |
| 11:24.14 | timeless | can you just manage the code to support transience via an arg? |
| 11:24.22 | timeless | we can do the other part later |
| 11:24.44 | qwerty12 | Makes sense; *nods* |
| 11:24.52 | timeless | we probably will need to have a --window mode for zenity |
| 11:25.00 | timeless | where instead of being a dialog |
| 11:25.07 | timeless | it paints a full window |

| 12:05.05 | sarower_ | how it could be ? |
| 12:06.26 | kalikianatoli | sarower_, not sure what you plan to do. you could use a GtkImage and unset the image as needed |
| 12:06.40 | kalikianatoli | or use a GtkDrawingArea and draw the image when you need it |
| 12:07.29 | sarower_ | hi |
| 12:08.53 | sarower_ | kalikianatoli: It is possible to set GtkImage and unset dynamically. but i use expose event to draw and cairo |
| 12:09.07 | sarower_ | kalikianatoli: How it could be possible? |
| 12:10.11 | lardman | any vala people here? |
| 12:10.26 | kalikianatoli | sarower_, if you want to draw on your own a drawing area is probably what you want, it's specifically meant for that |

| 12:18.34 | barisione | lardman: so, it really seems that this is broken :( |
| 12:20.01 | barisione | lardman: the problem is that the format for geolocation in the presence status changed from the easy to parse âmessage [location]â to the harder to parse âmessage - locationâ or, if there is no message, just â@ locationâ |
| 12:20.04 | zaheerm | sarower_, you can probably use cairo to draw the image? |
| 12:20.38 | barisione | lardman: I'm reporting a bug. in the meantime you can just try to parse the presence status by yourself |
| 12:20.41 | sarower_ | zaheerm: ok, But can i use other widget suppose gtkbutton there? |
| 12:21.02 | barisione | lardman: but parsing it correctly could be a bit difficult considering that â-â is a very common symbol... |
| 12:21.17 | sarower_ | suppose at position 0,0 an image and at position 100, 0 0a button? |

| 15:22.56 | crashanddie | lardman: redecorating? |

| 15:24.15 | mgedmin | papo, no, the SDK is *not* a good way to get an impression of a N900 |
| 15:24.31 | papo | lardman: I'm also wondering which parts I can alter... I've read on several places that this is going to be open source etc. but I don't think this will hold for the whole phone... so what exactly will I be able to code? |
| 15:24.56 | mgedmin | it's half-open, and I'd like to see a map too |
| 15:25.08 | mgedmin | rule of thumb: builting applications are closed-source |
| 15:25.18 | mgedmin | unless the app is based on a preexisting open-source app |

| 15:27.31 | papo | hm ok so by that, coming up with some code which allows me to block certain numbers or something like that is not likely possible (unless the phone can do that anyway) |
| 15:27.35 | mgedmin | no need to "jailbreak"; to get root you install one package from the official unofficial repository |
| 15:27.37 | crashanddie | mgedmin: so we can expect the skype integration for N900 to be open sourced as well |
| 15:27.44 | hrw | crashanddie: time will show how they will open it |
| 15:27.46 | mgedmin | crashanddie: only the frontend; the protocol bits will remain a closed library |
| 15:27.49 | papo | crashanddie: Is it? Last thing I read was about the UI |
| 15:27.57 | aquatix | crashanddie: wait wut? |
| 15:28.00 | crashanddie | and the UI is what exactly? |
| 15:28.12 | crashanddie | it's 90% of what you use, it's 100% of what is implemented in Maemo 5 |
| 15:28.15 | papo | crashanddie: The thing you see. Not the libraries that handle compression, encryption etc. |
| 15:28.15 | aquatix | i think they won't opensource the tech |
| 15:28.26 | aquatix | as there's too much obfuscation going on |
| 15:28.31 | crashanddie | aye |
| 15:29.04 | hrw | it is more like 'we suck at non-win32/non-osx guis so please write them by your own' rather |
| 15:29.14 | papo | mgedmin: Hm yes I read about that philosophy and it's very appealing to me. I'm waiting for an email from the store before I place the order |

| 15:32.41 | mgedmin | papo, well, you can always choose the layout in the settings |
| 15:32.50 | mgedmin | and ignore the symbols painted on the keys |
| 15:33.00 | papo | mgedmin: sure but in general, this confuses me |
| 15:33.25 | mgedmin | I wonder if the third level is different in different layouts |
| 15:33.30 | mgedmin | because that would be very confusing |
| 15:33.50 | papo | I have no idea, all I've seen is a bunch of screenshots |
| 15:34.17 | papo | I saw a German layout which had 4 cursor keys. That would be fine but I need to be sure they're shipping that one in Switzerland |

| 17:48.02 | mgedmin | dunno, my outlook is: I will damn well enable every feature I want to enable, let the battery adjust to me rather than forcing me to adjust to it |
| 17:48.13 | lardman | ponders how he can actually see the location of his wife's phone on Google Latitude |
| 17:48.14 | papo | hm ok |
| 17:48.29 | mgedmin | so, wifi or 3g on, gps on, bluetooth on |
| 17:48.36 | cehteh | courmisch: where? |
| 17:48.49 | cehteh | does the gps draw much power? |
| 17:48.52 | Proteous | mgedmin charges his phone every 5 minutes |
| 17:48.56 | mgedmin | well, the gps bit is "go on every 30 minutes or so, to update my location in the instant messenging status" |
| 17:49.12 | mgedmin | and I'm not sure it actually uses the gps, maybe it does everything from cell tower info |
| 17:49.22 | mgedmin | gps on a n810 was a battery killer |
| 17:49.40 | courmisch | I wouldn't know about such details |
| 17:50.06 | papo | hm I wouldn't use the GPS much anyway. Maybe when I go out jogging, to record the track. That would be cool |
| 17:50.19 | cehteh | yes, but how about n900, the hardware is quite different |

| 17:54.50 | mgedmin | location services kinda work (they show me as being 2 streets over), so don't expect voice navigation to help you find the milk aisle |
| 17:55.05 | RST38h | mgedmin: Simply tell your N900 not to use 3G |
| 17:55.07 | mgedmin | cehteh, waiting 6 minutes for a GPS fix sucks |
| 17:55.08 | RST38h | cackles |
| 17:55.10 | cehteh | does it make calls for agps and charge money for that? |
| 17:55.17 | lcuk | mgedmin, 2 streets over isnt very good when you send a nice lady your location and shes trying to find you |
| 17:55.23 | mgedmin | and the software seems to have some timeouts that stop string in 5 minutes, so you end up never getting a fix |
| 17:55.26 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: That'll cause some carriers to drop you |
| 17:55.29 | RST38h | found 3G signal at some coffee shop a while ago: it totally confused his N900 |

| 17:55.35 | RST38h | Speed: Why? |
| 17:55.58 | cehteh | mgedmin: yes i read on the n810 it needs to read in the almanac again |
| 17:56.05 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: they mandate that you must have a 3G capable phone - as they have poor GSM capacity, or rely on someone elses GSM |
| 17:56.14 | SpeedEvil | (hence GSM costs lots |
| 17:56.17 | cehteh | but thats rather a software problem, not caching it |
| 17:56.17 | SpeedEvil | (for them) |
| 17:56.42 | cehteh | well and i dont want GPS dialing into wifi and charge money for that |
| 17:56.44 | RST38h | Speed: weird crap |
| 17:57.10 | cehteh | that would be really ugly |
| 17:57.22 | RST38h | Speed: I do not think mgedmin is in that kind of an area though: GSM worked fine for me in .LT |
| 17:57.39 | mgedmin | nah, I'm currently in Sweden |
| 17:58.01 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: Oh - GSM works. It's just that if you lock it on GSM you will get dropped. |

| 19:46.35 | RST38h | hrw: may I ask why one should make this distinction? |
| 19:46.45 | w00t | hrw: and yet, i'm the exact opposite |
| 19:46.55 | Stskeeps | but honestly.. complaining about BT support in SDK is a bit awkward |
| 19:46.59 | w00t | the only reason i'm buying an n900 is because i can use it as a phone, as well as a tablet |
| 19:47.10 | Stskeeps | as far as i can tell, it is technically possible if you disable the host bluetooth impl |
| 19:47.20 | hrw | RST38h: when 770 was released it was definitelly not a phone. n8x0 just followed that and people were used that it is not a phone. |
| 19:47.26 | w00t | Stskeeps: that seems a bit awkward though |
| 19:47.39 | lcuk | i keep picking up my monitor and wondering why it doesnt respond when i tilt it |
| 19:47.49 | hrw | RST38h: n900 had to have just 3g modem inside (maemo summit 2008 talk). so it would still be tablet. |
| 19:47.49 | w00t | lcuk: throw it around the room |
| 19:47.51 | Stskeeps | w00t: there's no other way to do it sanely otherwise except for qemu stuff like hrw's excellent work :P |
| 19:47.54 | w00t | it'll respond -- just not in the way you want |
| 19:48.01 | lcuk | no w00t it might hit my N900 |
| 19:48.05 | w00t | :( |
| 19:48.20 | lcuk | or even worse, it might break my N900 |
| 19:48.20 | RST38h | hrw: well, then it would not have a chance to get out of its niche |
| 19:48.24 | w00t | Stskeeps: any alternative sounds sane really |
| 19:48.29 | hrw | RST38h: but now when they added 3g modem for talk+data... people not from tablet world will start using it. And they will use it as a phone |
| 19:48.31 | lbt | lcuk: do you keep touching your laptop screen too? I do. |
| 19:48.42 | qwerty12_N900 | lcuk: The N900 is like Superman |
| 19:48.45 | RST38h | hrw: isn't it good? |
| 19:48.47 | Stskeeps | hrw: it did help with the way the phone is used.. it's 'just' a voice over 3g and IM over SMS addition |

| 20:03.47 | BluesLee | GeneralAntilles: do you have a linkto that pdf? |
| 20:04.02 | GeneralAntilles | BluesLee, not handy. 2-4 days was the number they quoted, I believe. |
| 20:04.08 | Jaffa | hrw: I don't know. Not investigated. Imagine it's a deal between Palm and Facebook. |
| 20:04.11 | GeneralAntilles | BluesLee, keep in mind that nobody here has production firmware. |
| 20:04.14 | tbf | Jaffa: but as some guy highlighted me and claimed i'd have claimed such stuff i wanted to drop you that information about FB TOS |
| 20:04.23 | GeneralAntilles | So any number we give you may change when the device is released. |
| 20:04.29 | tbf | Jaffa: well, but as it seems this madness is old news to you |
| 20:04.55 | tbf | hrw: i have confirmed information that there is a public API and another API for companies which pay |
| 20:05.06 | BluesLee | GeneralAntilles: you are right, but 2-4 days doesnt sound too much |
| 20:05.07 | hrw | ok, good to know |
| 20:05.21 | hrw | anyway I do not use FB too much |
| 20:05.43 | lcuk | is facebook good or evil |
| 20:05.55 | Robot101 | mostly evil |
| 20:05.59 | tbf | so much about owning your data in the cloud |
| 20:06.15 | Robot101 | like google its an advertising platform, but google do it by taking you to other people's useful information |
| 20:06.18 | GeneralAntilles | BluesLee, it's a laptop in your pocket, not a phone. |
| 20:06.21 | lcuk | mostly Robot101? you mean there are redeeming qualities? |
| 20:06.26 | Robot101 | web searches, videos, images, e-mails, XMPP, etc |
| 20:06.35 | Robot101 | facebook locks all of those things in |
| 20:06.43 | kirma | blueslee: recent blog post on planet maemo had some idle measurements on ogg playback length post |
| 20:06.46 | Robot101 | and offers a demeaningly restricted API to get in and access the info |
| 20:07.18 | BluesLee | kirma: yeah, about 93 hours |
| 20:07.32 | tbf | Robot101: well, FB tries to justify those limitations with protecting users from data harvesters |
| 20:07.53 | GeneralAntilles | tbf, unless they have money. ;) |
| 20:08.17 | kirma | I charge my phone every night anyway, so it's not really so bad. I'm more concerned about background applications sneakily eating the battery in an hour or something |
| 20:08.24 | tbf | Robot101: and if you consider how easy non-geek fb users are on taking quizzes and such, i am 30% tempted to believe them. |
| 20:08.25 | kirma | (mostly referring to web pages) |
| 20:08.49 | lcuk | kirma, ive run some sneaky apps and ive never managed to drain my battery in an hour |
| 20:08.55 | GeneralAntilles | kirma, I got about 6 hours at ~70% CPU with the screen off the other day. |
| 20:09.10 | kirma | well, that's good :) |
| 20:10.03 | kirma | but even 4-6 hours is bad user experience if user doesn't comprehend what was causing it, and nothing alerted him about it... |
| 20:10.16 | kirma | and typically, he could have been without that drain. |
| 20:10.25 | tbf | Robot101: would suck if every anonymous harvester would get my high quality address data, just 'cause some friend takes a quiz |
| 20:10.44 | Robot101 | tbf: right |
| 20:10.44 | tbf | Robot101: well, but yes: FB could fix that |

| 21:43.45 | javispedro | but if you want to open another thread, go ahead :) |
| 21:43.59 | wazd | yeah, 48 ;) |
| 21:44.07 | javispedro | is on meds |
| 21:44.18 | javispedro | well, no, no excuse for being idiot |
| 21:44.28 | dmj7262 | actually that probably makes up the entire size difference on the screen |
| 21:44.41 | Stskeeps | javispedro: perfect time for making a debian package with stub libGLESv2 and libEGL, using __attribute__((weak)) for all API symbols then |
| 21:44.44 | Stskeeps | ;p |
| 21:44.54 | javispedro | what WHAT?= |
| 21:45.03 | javispedro | what for? |
| 21:45.17 | Stskeeps | building against gles api without uploading closed source libs :P |
| 21:45.22 | javispedro | ah |
| 21:45.24 | dmj7262 | Any clue why the Droid wouldn't respond to my fingernail, err organic stylus? |
| 21:45.24 | javispedro | good point :P |
| 21:45.33 | wazd | does droid looks that retro-brick in real life too? |
| 21:45.40 | dmj7262 | yes |
| 21:46.06 | javispedro | Stskeeps: wouldn't you know if mesa has at least the symbols declared? |
| 21:46.12 | javispedro | s/declared/exported |
| 21:46.23 | javispedro | I think EGL support was fairly complete |
| 21:46.27 | wazd | I'm really really shocked bout that moto failure :( |
| 21:46.39 | dmj7262 | what failure? |
| 21:46.44 | wazd | droid design |
| 21:46.57 | GeneralAntilles | dmj726, capacitive. |
| 21:47.16 | dmj7262 | ah. It doesn't look ugly persay, but angular brink does come to mind. |
| 21:47.18 | Stskeeps | javispedro: it's not complete in GLES/GLES2 |
| 21:47.46 | wazd | capacitive displays will become precise and stylus friendly someday |
| 21:47.47 | dmj7262 | ah, so capacitive only responds to skin, not nail? |
| 21:47.48 | javispedro | well, I guess no difference with your weak monster DSO |
| 21:47.50 | javispedro | then. |
| 21:48.12 | wazd | and resistive touchscreens will die :) |
| 21:48.25 | javispedro | (note that all I know from DSOs on GNU system was from quicly eyeing Ulrich's paper on it so ..) |

| 21:56.34 | lardman | but still the Android phone has some cool features |
| 21:56.37 | lardman | and some not so cool ones |
| 21:56.45 | dmj7262 | what do you like/dislike |
| 21:57.25 | lardman | I do like the Google integration (as that's what she uses); the desktop app stuff is cool, touchscreen works better than on N900 |
| 21:57.46 | lardman | I don't like the lack of choice and lack of integration of non-Google stuff |
| 21:57.59 | dmj7262 | what do you mean lack of choice? |
| 21:58.08 | lardman | not fond of the random menus you have to go into, not very intuitive imo |
| 21:58.27 | lardman | well you can't have MSN integrated, you have to download an app to use it |
| 21:58.41 | javispedro | Stskeeps: (answering myself) Khronos headers are "GSI Free Software License B " which is X11, and they seems to have minor diffs with Imagintion's. So they should be enough. |
| 21:58.47 | lardman | whereas with the N8x0/N900 it just works in the same built-in app |
| 21:58.59 | frals | this glade and pygtk is pretty nice... god i like when i dont have to code gui stuff :D |

| 22:47.08 | qwerty12_N900 | BBNS: DBus signals get emitted on its pressing. My guess that there's a process, somewhere, listening to them and once you find that process, it wouldn't be hard to listen to them yourself |
| 22:47.21 | RST38h | a moment |
| 22:47.37 | BBNS | well, I know I could get the signal of camera key 'half' pressed. |
| 22:47.48 | BBNS | however, i wanna block the camera apps being launched. |
| 22:48.04 | BBNS | since i wanna use the key for other applications. |
| 22:48.20 | timeless_mbp | you might want to talk to mce and ask it nicely :) |

| 22:51.44 | timeless_mbp | it's in the topic, try it? |
| 22:51.54 | qwerty12_N900 | RST38h: He has? For what? Only thing I know that does it is load-applet, and that's for the half-pressed state via DBus |

| 23:20.46 | timeless_mbp | i only care about the values in the input field |
| 23:20.49 | Dantonic | sox! that's what it was |
| 23:20.54 | Dantonic | sox is a sound player right? |
| 23:20.56 | timeless_mbp | if the user ends up with "Un" in the input field |
| 23:21.00 | timeless_mbp | then that's mixed case |
| 23:21.08 | sp3000 | they probably typed un |
| 23:21.09 | timeless_mbp | nods |
| 23:21.20 | sp3000 | and they'd have a hard time not getting Un |
